MOVE LOGISTICS FY22 INTERIM RESULTS
Company Announcement
22 February 2022
MOVE LOGISTICS FY22 INTERIM RESULTS
Transport and logistics group, MOVE Logistics Group Limited (NZX: MOV), has reported its unaudited
results for the six months to 31 December 2021 (1H22), as it completes the first three months of a
two-year plan to stabilise and grow the business.
The financial results reflect the impact of the COVID lockdown and regional restrictions in New
Zealand from August to December 2021. In particular, fuel deliveries decreased significantly during
the first quarter impacting on MOVE’s Fuel business, and several large infrastructure projects were
deferred or put on hold which affected MOVE’s Specialist division. A positive recovery has been seen
in Quarter 2 and is expected to continue into the second half of the financial year.
The company is focused on margin improvement and is targeting sectors which meet margin and
value criteria. Customer retention has been strong with a company-wide rate review now well
underway. Excluding clients on fixed contracts, MOVE is seeking to improve its operating margins
and shed underperforming business.
The results also include costs involved in restructuring and resetting the business as part of the
strategic plan, as well as inflationary pressure. As signalled at the November 2021 ASM, MOVE has
sought to restructure the business along functional lines. This restructure has resulted in a number
of one-off costs being incurred, relating to employee and fixed asset costs. A number of legacy
activities in the company are being addressed in relation to their fit with the new business model.
MOVE operates through four divisions, with the Freight and Contract Logistics divisions together
providing 94% of revenue and 93% of EBITDA. Specialist and International make up the remainder of
revenue and earnings.
Revenue for the six months was $183.3m, up slightly on the prior comparative period (pcp), with a
strong recovery being seen from the second quarter following the August/September lockdown.
EBITDA before non trading costs
1
was down 12.8% to $28.7m with positive gains in Freight and
International offset by the impact of COVID on the Fuel (Contract Logistics) and Specialist businesses
as detailed above. The comparative prior first half year also benefited from a large windfarm project
and a positive contract resolution. The company reported a net loss after tax (NLAT) of $(1.4)m for
the six months. Excluding non-trading costs, the NLAT was $(0.8)m.
A $40m capital raise was successfully completed during the period, introducing new shareholders to
the register, including a number of Australian investors, and enabling a reduction in net debt to
$14.5m.
Strategic Progress
The Board and leadership of MOVE were refreshed in mid-2021 and experienced transport and
logistics sector executive, Chris Dunphy, took up the role of Executive Director. A comprehensive
1
Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation (EBITDA) and before non-trading costs of
$0.8m.
business review has been completed with key priorities identified to drive improvement and growth
of the business, particularly in Freight and Contract Logistics.
In particular, the focus is on margin improvement, asset utilisation and profitability, with a range of
initiatives in place to increase total earnings and lift margins. These include:
• Technology driven operating efficiencies, including the planned implementation of a new
Transport Management System.
• Customer acquisition and identification of desirable customer and sector opportunities.
• Further cross-selling MOVE’s range of services.
• Improved utilisation of assets, including network optimisation and ongoing conversion to a
low asset model.
• Commenced strategy to convert more of MOVE’s fleet to leased trucks and grow the
percentage of owner-drivers contracted to the company.
• Continue to adopt multi-modal approach as part of customer solutions. MOVE Oceans’ first
chartered coastal vessel, is expected to be delivered to New Zealand in 4Q22. MOVE’s
strong Freight branch network, coupled with supply issues in obtaining rail space, make
coastal shipping a key part of the ‘MOVE-forward’ strategy.
The leadership team has been strengthened with new COOs for the Freight and Contract Logistics
businesses appointed in the later part of 2021, the recruitment of a new CIO in early 2022 and a
number of other experienced and talented people recruited into the business.
Health and safety remains a priority across the Group with a continued improvement in safety
metrics.
Capital expenditure is expected to increase as the company invests into technology, particularly the
new Transport Management System and a primarily leased fleet replacement programme over the
next two years. In line with this and its Environmental aspirations, MOVE has placed an order for two
hydrogen fuelled trucks for delivery mid-2022 and will be one of the first transport businesses in
New Zealand to have these hydrogen trucks in its fleet.
Outlook
Sector and economic headwinds are expected to continue into the second half of the financial year.
COVID pressures remain, with disruptions expected as Omicron spreads, including on the supply
chain in New Zealand and the labour force. Significant planning has been undertaken to mitigate
disruptions to MOVE and the critical services it provides, with access to Rapid Antigen Tests and a
testing programme in place for essential workers.
High inflationary pressure and rising interest rates are also expected. MOVE will raise freight rates to
offset increasing costs wherever possible. Driver shortages are becoming more acute and it is hoped
that the loosening of border restrictions will enable more skilled drivers to enter the country.
With a comprehensive business review now complete, the company is moving ahead with a clear
two-year strategic plan to improve margins and grow the business.
The positive recovery seen in Quarter 2 is expected to continue into the second half of the financial
year, with initiatives positioning the company to take advantage of market opportunities.
Although there continues to be uncertainties as noted above the company confirms that it expects
FY22 performance to be broadly in line with FY21.

Board of Directors on 21 February 202221 February 2022.
1.2. BASIS OF PREPARATION
This consolidated interim financial report for the half-year reporting period ended 31 December 2021 has been prepared
in accordance with accounting standards IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and NZ IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.
They have also been prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with New Zealand Generally Accepted

impact on the Group.

MOVE LOGISTICS GROUP LIMITED INTERIM FINANCIAL REPORT
3. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS
a. Estimated impairment of Goodwill
The Group tests intangible assets for impairment to ensure they are not carried at above their recoverable amounts
• At least annually for goodwill
• Where there is an indication that the assets may be impaired (which is assessed at least each reporting period)
The Group concluded that there are no indicators of impairment for any of the other CGU’s at 31 December 2021 although,
they will continue to monitor the position closely for any evidence that the goodwill has become impaired.
4. RECONCILIATION TO GAAP MEASURE
The Group results are prepared in accordance with New Zealand Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (“GAAP”) and
comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).
These interim financial statements include non-GAAP financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with IFRS.
The non-GAAP financial measures used in this presentation are as follows:
• Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) represents profit before income taxes (a GAAP measure), excluding interest
income, interest expense, depreciation and amortisation, share of loss of associates, loss on sale of investment in
associates, restructuring costs and share acquisition costs (non operating expenses) as reported in the financial
statements.
• Adjusted EBIT (a non-GAAP measure) represents profit before income taxes (a GAAP measure), excluding interest
income, interest expense, share of loss of associates, loss on sale of investment in associates, restructuring costs
and share acquisition costs (non operating expenses) as reported in the financial statements.
• The Group believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to readers to assist in the
understanding of the financial performance and position of the Group as they are used internally to evaluate
the performance of business units and to establish operational goals. They should not be viewed in isolation, nor
considered as a subsitute for measures reported in accordance with IFRS. Non-GAAP measures as reported by the
Group may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies.
The following is a reconciliation between these non-GAAP measures and net profit after tax:

5. SEGMENT INFORMATION
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting to the Chief Operating Decision
Maker (CODM). The CODM is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments.
During the reportable period there was a change in the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) assessed now as the
Executive Director. Following this, there has been a change to the operating structure of the Group and as such the
reportable operating segments have been revised to align with the new structure.
The Group has made the decision that the fourteen operating segments that form part of the reporting to the Executive
Director can be aggregated into five reporting segments. Reportable segments have been determined by having regard
to the nature of the services, the processes the various business units undertake to service customers, the allocation of
capital, the type of customers serviced, and the nature of the distribution channels.
In addition to GAAP measures, the Executive Director also uses non-GAAP measures (EBITDA and EBIT) to assess the
commercial performance of the segments. The revised reportable operating segments have been determined as:
INTERNATIONAL
This segment includes international freight forwarding and shipping agency services across a broad range of industries.
SPECIALIST
This segment provides transport and lifting solutions for oversized and large items. They also carry out specialist moving
jobs.
FREIGHT
This segment provides nationwide general freight transport services with regional strength. It is able to transport a wide
range of freight types.
CONTRACT LOGISTICS
This segment specialises in contracted solutions providing services for customers including warehouse and supply chain
capability and delivery of bulk liquids.
CORPORATE
This segment includes our corporate services function.
Comparative information has been re-presented from that presented in both 31 December 2020 interim report. This is to
provide comparative information aligned with the newly determined reporting segments.

Interest income and expense are not allocated to segments, as this type of activity is driven by the central treasury
function, which manages the cash position of the Group.
Sales between segments are eliminated on consolidation. The amounts provided to the CODM with respect to segment
revenue are measured in a manner consistent with that of the financial statements.
The Group has a diverse range of customers from various industries, with only one customer contributing more than
10% of the Group’s revenue. These revenues are attributed to the Contract Logistics segment.

• ANZ - $27.5m 3 year term loan facility

the Group voluntarily repaid an additional $10m of debt against its UDC facility which remains undrawn at 31 December
2021.
On 26 September 2021 the Group agreed an amendment with ANZ and UDC to reset its financial covenants due to the
impact of the August 2021 COVID-19 lockdown. This amendment indicates the continued support of the Group’s banking
partners, ANZ and UDC.
The covenants including those reset are as follows:
• Leverage Ratio of <3.00x
• Interest Cover Ratio of >1.00x for periods to 31 March 2022; increasing to >1.50x for 30 June 2022 and >2.50x thereafter
• Net capital expenditure not exceeding 110% of forecast capital expenditure
• Operating lease commitments in relation to fleet and equipment are capped at $50m
• Guarantor coverage Assets / EBITDA of >85%
The Group has fully complied with the reset facility covenants and undertakings to 31 December 2021.
Based on forward looking forecasts and the financial covenants agreed with the ANZ and UDC the Group is expected to
comply with the financial covenants for at least 12 months from the date of signing the financial statements. Accordingly,
the consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis.

Independent auditor’s review report
To the shareholders of MOVe Logistics Group Limited

the financial position of the Group as at 31 December 2021, and its financial performance and cash
flows for the period then ended, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 Interim
Financial Reporting (IAS 34) and New Zealand Equivalent to International Accounting Standard 34
Interim Financial Reporting (NZ IAS 34).

in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) is a limited assurance engagement. We perform
procedures, primarily consisting of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and
