Chairman’s Report 2022

On behalf of the Board of Directors of Delegat Group Limited, I am pleased to present its operating and

financial results for the six months ended 31 December 2021.

The Group presents its financial statements in accordance with the New Zealand equivalents to

International Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS).

To provide further insight into the Group’s underlying operational performance, the Group has also

included in this report an Operating Performance Report. This Operating Performance Report excludes

the impact of fair value adjustments required under NZ IFRS for grapes and derivative financial

instruments. As a fully integrated winemaking and sales operation, Operating Profit includes the fair

value adjustment in respect of grapes when packaged wine is sold rather than on harvest of the grapes,

and the fair value adjustment on derivative financial instruments when these foreign exchange contracts

and interest rate swaps are realised.

The Group has included a reconciliation of Operating Profit to Reported Profit which eliminates from

each line in the Statement of Financial Performance the impact of these fair value adjustments.

*The financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2020 have been restated for Software-as-a-Service arrangements under NZ IAS 38: Intangible Assets and growing costs

under NZ IAS 41: Agriculture. Refer to Note 1 of the financial statements.

Notes:

3. Operating Expenses are before fair value movements on derivative financial instruments (if losses).

4. Operating EBIT, EBITDA and NPAT are before any fair value adjustments.

Table 1

Operating Performance

Operating Performance
An Operating NPAT of $39.5 million was generated compared to $43.0 million for the same period in

the previous year. Operating EBIT of $59.6 million is $4.7 million lower than the same period last year

(refer to table 1).

Delegat achieved Operating Revenue of $178.7 million on record global case sales of 1,893,000 in the six

month period. Revenue is up $5.9 million on the same period last year primarily due to price increases

implemented in key markets including the United States, the United Kingdom, Ireland and Australia, and

the favourable impact of a 2% increase in global case sales.

The Group’s case sales performance and foreign currency rates achieved are detailed in table 2.

Operating Gross Profit is down 4% on the same period last year. This is due to higher cost of sales from

the lower yielding 2021 vintage, higher supply chain costs associated with ongoing shipping constraints

and port congestions and unfavourable foreign exchange rate changes. This has been partially offset by

increased case sales and price increases implemented. Operating expenses (before NZ IFRS adjustments)

at $27.2 million are $0.7 million higher compared to the same period in the previous year.

Case Sales and Foreign Currency

NZ IFRS Fair Value Adjustments
In accordance with NZ IFRS, the Group is required to account for certain of their assets at ‘fair value’

rather than at historic cost. All movements in these fair values are reflected in and impact the Statement

of Financial Performance. The Group records adjustments in respect of two significant items at the half-

year reporting date, as detailed in table 3.

• Harvest Provision Release (Grapes) – Inventory is valued at market value, rather than costs incurred,

at harvest. Any fair value adjustment is excluded from Operating Performance for the year, by creating

a Harvest Provision. This Harvest Provision is then released through Cost of Sales when inventory is

sold in subsequent years. This represents the reversal of prior periods’ fair value adjustments in respect

of biological produce as finished wine is sold in subsequent years. This has resulted in an adjustment

of $7.1 million for the period (December 2020: adjustment of $10.3 million);

• Derivative financial instruments held to hedge the Group’s foreign currency and interest rate exposure.

The mark-to-market movement of these instruments at balance date resulted in a fair value write-up

of $3.2 million (December 2020: write-up of $4.9 million).

Reconciliation of Reporting to Operating Performance

Accounting for all fair value adjustments under NZ IFRS, the Group’s reported unaudited financial

performance for the six months ended 31 December 2021 is reconciled to Operating Profit as detailed

in table 4.

CHAIRMAN’S REPORT

4

Notes:

1. Biological Produce (Grapes) is the difference between market value paid for grapes versus the cost to grow grapes.

The Harvest Provision is reversed and only recognised when the finished wine is sold.

Cash Flow
The Group generated Cash Flows from Operations of $20.2 million in the current half-year, which

is a decrease of $22.4 million or 53% on the same period last year, associated with funding higher

working capital requirements due to the timing of cash collections from customers and payments to

suppliers. A total of $15.9 million was paid for additional property, plant and equipment during the

period, including vineyard developments in New Zealand, and development of the Hawke’s Bay and

Marlborough wineries, which will provide earnings growth into the years ahead. The Group distributed

$20.2 million to shareholders in dividends. Net proceeds from borrowings of $14.8 million were drawn

down during the six month period.

On 7 December 2021 the Group successfully completed the renegotiation of its $333 million syndicated

Senior Debt facilities and is well positioned to fund its growth. The Group’s Net Debt at 31 December

2021 amounted to $267.0 million, an increase of $12.9 million compared with the last half-year and well

within the Group’s long-term bank debt facilities.

Looking Forward

The Group is on target to achieve global case sales for the full year of 3,419,000, up 8% on last year.

Based on the prevailing exchange rates and a similar trading environment, the Group forecasts the 2022

Operating Profit result remains in line with market guidance in the range of $57 million to $61 million.

1. General Information
Reporting Entity

The financial statements presented are those of Delegat Group Limited and its subsidiaries (the Group). Delegat Group

Limited is a company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in New Zealand and registered under the Companies

Act 1993. The Parent shares are publicly traded on the New Zealand Stock Exchange.

The financial statements for the Group for the six months ended 31 December 2021 were authorised for issue in

accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 25 February 2022.

Basis of Preparation

The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Practice in

New Zealand (NZ GAAP), the requirements of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013, and NZ IAS 34: Interim Financial

Reporting. Accounting policies applied in these interim financial statements comply with New Zealand equivalents to

International Financial Reporting Standards, and other applicable Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS) as applicable

to the Group as a profit-oriented entity.

The interim financial statements are presented in New Zealand Dollars, rounded to the nearest thousand. They are

prepared on a historical cost basis except for derivative financial instruments and biological produce which have been

measured at fair value.

The preparation of the interim financial statements in conformity with NZ IAS 34 requires the Group to make judgements,

estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income

and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors

that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may vary from these estimates. The estimates

and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the

period in which the estimates are revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of revision and future

periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Group uses derivative financial instruments such as forward currency contracts and options to economically hedge

its risk associated with foreign currency and interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk. Such financial instruments

are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into, and are subsequently

remeasured to fair value at balance date. In estimating the fair value of the derivative financial instruments the Group

uses level 2 inputs of the fair value measurement hierarchy. The Group’s derivative financial instruments fall into level

2 of the fair value measurement hierarchy because their fair value is determined using inputs, other than quoted prices

included in level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly as prices or indirectly (derived from prices).

The fair values are derived through valuation techniques that maximise the use of observable market data where it is

available and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates.

Changes in Accounting Policies

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year, with the exception of growing

costs and Software-as-a-Service arrangements as detailed below. Refer to the published financial statements for the year

ended 30 June 2021 for a complete listing of the Group accounting policies.

Growing Costs

An adjustment has been made to restate the 2020 comparatives to align the accounting treatment for growing costs.

Previously a distinction was made between where the Group maintains beneficial ownership in bearer plants and where

the Group is not the beneficial owner of bearer plants. All vineyard costs that are incurred subsequent to harvest up

to balance sheet date are now treated consistently and are carried forward in the Statement of Financial Position and

included in the subsequent year’s fair value adjustment at point of harvest.

1. General Information (continued)
Software-as-a-Service Arrangements

The Group accounting policy on intangible software has been changed subsequent to an agenda decision published by

the IFRS Interpretations Committee in April 2021, for the configuration and customisation costs incurred in relation to

Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) arrangements. SaaS arrangements are those in which the Group does not currently control

the underlying software used in the arrangement, but pays a fee in exchange for a right to receive access to a supplier’s

application software for a specified term.

Under the new Group accounting policy, costs incurred to configure or customise SaaS arrangements are recognised

as a separate intangible software asset when they meet the definition of and recognition criteria for, an intangible asset.

These costs are recognised as intangible software assets and amortised over their useful lives on a straight-line basis. If

costs do not meet the recognition criteria, they are expensed as incurred.

The Group has applied the change in accounting policy retrospectively, with the impact shown in the table below.

2. Segmental Reporting

The Group reviews its operational performance based upon the management and the geographic areas in which their

customers are based. Financial information which is available to management in order to assess segment performance

and investment opportunities is presented on the same basis. In accordance with NZ IFRS 8: Operating Segments this

forms the basis of presentation for Segment Reporting and is the format adopted below:

Delegat Limited (Delegat) is party to vineyard leases and has interests in freehold land and winery infrastructure which

allows the company to grow, harvest and make finished wine to be marketed, distributed and sold into the Super Premium

wine markets. Delegat sells and markets its product through a combination of subsidiary companies based overseas or

to customers and distributors directly in the New Zealand, Canadian, Asian and Pacific Island markets. Delegat Australia

Pty Limited, Delegat Europe Limited and Delegat USA, Inc. act as distributors and assist in the marketing of product in

their respective geographic regions. Wines are sold all year round to all regions and the Group considers there is no

significant variation in revenues throughout the year.

The Group implements appropriate transfer pricing regimes within the operating segments on an arm’s length basis in a

manner similar to transactions with third parties.

Management monitors the operating results of its business units separately for the purpose of making resource allocations

and performance assessments. Segment performance is evaluated based on operating profit or loss, which may be

measured differently from operating profit or loss in the consolidated financial statements as segment reporting is based

upon internal management reports. The main differences are a result of some deferred tax balances being recognised

upon consolidation not being allocated to individual subsidiaries. Also intercompany stock margin eliminations are

managed on a group basis and are not allocated to operating segments.
