New Zealand King Salmon – Results Announcement Date Waiver
The Board of New Zealand King Salmon Investments Limited (NZKS) advises that
NZKS has been granted a waiver from NZX Listing Rule 3.5.1, which ordinarily
requires NZKS to release a Results Announcement through MAP no later than 60
days after the end of its financial year.
In reliance on this waiver, NZKS expects to release its results for the 12 months
ending 31 January 2022 on or around 13 April 2022. The delay is due to the
disruption caused by the Omicron variant of COVID-19, which has impacted either
directly or indirectly (close contacts) members of the NZKS finance team and our
audit provider.
NZKS expects to release its annual report on or before 2 May 2022 (and therefore
has not sought, nor been granted, a waiver in relation to the release of its annual
report).
In February the Board announced we were experiencing higher than expected sea
farm mortality. As noted in our previous announcement, the mortality event will have
an impact on our FY23 harvest volumes and our FY22 and FY23 financial results.
NZKS is still working through the associated financial impacts of this and will provide
a more detailed updated on sea farm mortality and the expected impact on FY23
earnings as part of our results announcement which is now expected to be on or
around 13 April 2023. NZKS remains committed to minimising sea farm mortalities
and is continually assessing the options available to do this.
Although we are still finalising our financial results, we continue to expect our FY22
Proforma EBITDA to be in the previously indicated range of $6.5m – $7.5m.
