Heartland announces record FY2022 profit, and equity raising to

retire bridge debt and fund growth ambitions for existing business


Heartland Group Holdings Limited (Heartland) (NZX/ASX: HGH) is pleased to announce a net profit after tax

(NPAT) of $95.1 million for the financial year ended 30 June 2022 (FY2022), an increase of $8.1 million (9.3%)

compared with the financial year ended 30 June 2021 (FY2021)

1

. On an underlying

basis, FY2022 NPAT was

$96.1 million, an increase of $8.2 million (9.3%) compared with the FY2021 underlying NPAT.


Heartland is also pleased to announce a $200 million equity raise comprising a $130 million fully

underwritten placement and a $70 million non-underwritten share purchase plan to shareholders in New

Zealand and Australia, with the ability for Heartland to accept oversubscriptions at its discretion. Proceeds

will be used to repay a A$158 million acquisition finance facility outstanding in relation to the recent

acquisition of StockCo Holdings 2 Pty Ltd and StockCo Australia Management Pty Limited (together, StockCo

Australia), and to provide additional growth capital for Heartland’s existing businesses in Australia and New

Zealand.

Strategic vision


Heartland remains committed to its strategic vision to create sustainable growth and differentiation through

best or only products delivered through scalable digital platforms. Fundamental to the execution of

Heartland’s vision are the following four strategic pillars:

1. Business as Usual Growth (reported on in Business performance from page 7)

2. Frictionless Service at the Lowest Cost

3. Expansion in Australia

4. Acquisitions.


Frictionless Service at the Lowest Cost

Heartland’s focus on providing best or only products has evolved to providing those products through

scalable digital platforms. This focus on digitalisation allows Heartland to deliver exceptional service and

value for its customers. Reduced customer friction creates scale without costly processes, while delivering

better service.


Through FY2022, Heartland developed new functionality for its digital platforms to enable increased self-

service by customers. The number of users on Heartland Bank’s mobile app increased by 120% in FY2022,

and in June 2022, the average number of inbound calls per customer to Heartland Bank’s main customer

service phone lines reduced by more than 10% compared with June 2021. In addition, Heartland Finance

recently launched its online customer portal, allowing Australian Reverse Mortgage customers to view their

loan balance, cash reserve and redraw balances, and current interest rate. The Heartland Finance Mobile

App launched soon after in August 2022.


A greater degree of self-service functionality development is planned for the financial year ended 30 June

2023 (FY2023), to deliver enhancements to Heartland’s existing product platforms in New Zealand and

Australia.


CTI ratio, as a measure of the efficiency of digitalisation, reduced from 44.8% in FY2021 to 42.5% in FY2022

on an underlying basis. Despite the possibility of volatility in the short term, Heartland is committed in the

long term to reductions in the CTI.


Heartland has committed a significant degree of technology investment through FY2022, and considers it is

at peak investment phase due to the upgrade of its core banking system. This upgrade is expected to provide

Heartland with a stable long-term platform, leading to improved customer service.


Expansion in Australia

Heartland’s focus on expansion in Australia is on:

1. growing its existing Australian Reverse Mortgages business;

2. growing Livestock Finance following the recent acquisition of StockCo Australia; and

3. seeking other opportunities to expand Heartland’s best or only strategy into Australia.

In FY2022, Heartland solidified its position as the leading provider of reverse mortgages in Australia, with an

origination share of 74%

9

. Additionally, of the $3.3 billion of reverse mortgage loans reported in the

Australian market, Heartland’s market share was 33.1% at 31 March 2022 (up from 29.3% at 31 March

2021)

10

. The Australian market remains a significant opportunity for growth for Heartland, with the potential

addressable market for reverse mortgages estimated to be $10-15 billion.

11



Acknowledging increasing cost of living pressures, Heartland adjusted various specifications for its Well-Life

Loan and Reverse Mortgage products to increase the eligible market. In January 2022, Heartland also

launched Express Reverse Mortgages, a new streamlined loan targeting homeowners aged 60 to 70.


Acquisitions

StockCo Australia

On 31 May 2022, Heartland completed its acquisition of StockCo Australia, a leading livestock finance

business based in Brisbane, Australia. Heartland’s focus is to build on StockCo Australia’s position as a

market-leading provider of specialist livestock finance for cattle and sheep farmers across Australia. It

intends to do this by delivering growth capital, digital enhancements, and expanding into new market

segments. Read more about the acquisition of StockCo Australia on page 9.


Further opportunities for growth in Australia

Heartland is continuing to look for further opportunities in Australia as a key growth market, and has been

exploring opportunities to establish or acquire an authorised deposit-taking institution (ADI) in Australia.

Becoming a bank through an ADI in Australia would make possible a number of benefits:

- access to a deep and efficient pool of funding to support ongoing growth;

- potential uplift in margin, to the extent that retail funding rates are less than wholesale rates; and

- providing a platform to extend Heartland’s best or only strategy into Australia.


The aim is to create the potential for a digital bank which, once Heartland assets are transferred into it,

would be profitable. This, together with Heartland’s best or only strategy, provides the opportunity for a

differentiated proposition.


To this end, Heartland has entered into a non-binding memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Avenue

Hold Limited (Avenue Hold) in relation to the potential acquisition of Avenue Hold and its subsidiary Avenue

Bank Limited (Avenue Bank). Avenue Bank is a restricted ADI. This means Avenue Bank may conduct banking

business in Australia for a limited period and subject to specific restrictions. Avenue Bank is seeking to

progress to becoming a full ADI.


Any establishment or acquisition by Heartland of an ADI in Australia would be subject to regulatory

approvals.


Subject to regulatory approvals and transaction completion, Heartland’s existing businesses in Australia

would be transferred to sit in or under Avenue Bank, and this would be the vehicle for growth in Australia.


In accordance with the MoU, Heartland has made an initial subscription for A$5 million of capital in Avenue

Hold. Heartland’s due diligence review is continuing, as is negotiation of binding transaction documentation.

Completion of any transaction is expected to be conditional upon a number of matters (which may include

Heartland securing acquisition funding, Heartland being satisfied as to the likelihood of Avenue Bank

progressing to being a full ADI, Avenue Hold shareholder support of the transaction, receipt of all necessary

regulatory approvals (including from APRA and the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ)), and the absence

of any material adverse change).


Any requirements or conditions of regulatory approvals (including capital and liquidity requirements for the

bank and relevant business of Heartland held below Heartland’s top-level holding company in Australia,

Heartland Australia Holdings Pty Limited (HAH)) will:

1. become known only as engagement with APRA and RBNZ progresses; and

2. be relevant to Heartland’s decision to proceed with the transaction.


It is currently expected that completion of any acquisition would take place no earlier than the last quarter

of FY2023, and possibly not until the first half of the financial year ending 30 June 2024 (FY2024). The

consideration payable by Heartland on completion is expected to be A$49 million, subject to adjustments.


For regulatory reasons, Heartland would be required to hold any ADI in Australia through an Australian

incorporated non-operating holding company (NOHC) which is approved and regulated by APRA. It is

currently anticipated that HAH would be the appropriate vehicle to apply to APRA for authority to act as a

NOHC. To pre-position HAH for this opportunity, Heartland is seeking the consent of the RBNZ for HAH to

also act as the NOHC of Heartland Bank in New Zealand. This would not result in any change to Heartland

Bank’s beneficial ownership. This engagement with RBNZ is at an early stage.


Operating environment


The current operating environment continues to present challenges, with heightened geopolitical tensions

and rising inflation contributing to increasing cost of living and rapidly rising interest rates.


Whilst businesses learned to operate with COVID-19 present, the flow-on effects from border restrictions

and restrained supply chains continued in FY2022. New Zealand and Australia’s borders remained largely

closed to international travel until 2H2022. This has put pressure on industries, businesses and consumers

on both sides of the Tasman, and resulted in higher transport and freight costs being passed on to

consumers.


Increasing cost of living is evident in global inflation rates. Both New Zealand and Australia inflation rates are

currently the highest for 30 years, at 7.3% and 6.1% respectively.

12

As a result, interest rates have risen

rapidly – the RBNZ recently increased the Official Cash Rate to 3% in August 2022, its highest level since

2015, with further increases expected.


Heartland remains focused on ensuring support is provided to customers who may be struggling in the

current environment. Notwithstanding these pressures, Heartland’s loan portfolios have performed strongly.

Underlying impairment expense ratio was 29 bps in FY2022, 2 bps lower than in FY2021.


Heartland’s COVID-19 Overlay of $9.6 million, taken in the financial year ended 30 June 2020 (FY2020), has

been released in full. The Overlay was taken to provide a buffer against any future losses that the

uncertainty of COVID-19 may have given rise to. Heartland now has more certainty around those impacts

than in 2020, and its lending portfolios have benefited from improved quality as the portfolio mix has moved

towards higher quality and lower risk assets. The Overlay has not been utilised by Heartland, and there is no

longer any basis for retaining it. However, given the above-mentioned uncertainty and economic pressures

facing businesses, it has been considered prudent to create an Economic Overlay of $8.0 million. The

Economic Overlay will provide more resilience in areas such as Business Relationship lending and Asset

Finance which have larger loan sizes.

Risk


Heartland’s portfolio mix has continued to move towards higher quality and lower risk assets.


For example, Heartland’s Reverse Mortgage portfolios in New Zealand and Australia have grown

considerably and continue to perform very strongly. Heartland’s Home Loans portfolio has grown

significantly – conservative lending standards mean that this book has performed very strongly and is

expected to be highly resilient to house price reductions and other potential economic shocks. Livestock,

which has historically proven to be a resilient portfolio, has also grown significantly. Motor has not only

grown, but has also benefited from improved quality as the volume of new car business in that book

continues to increase. At the same time, Heartland’s Personal Loans portfolio has reduced.


Heartland’s total (collective and specific) provisions as at 30 June 2022 were $52.0 million, with a coverage

ratio of 1.24%. This is a reduction from the coverage ratio of 1.61% as at 30 June 2021, but is reflective of the

improved quality and mix of Heartland’s portfolios (including the growth of online Home Loans and Livestock

Finance, and the reduction of the Harmoney Corp Limited (Harmoney) personal loans channel). This

improved quality is evidenced by the percentage of Heartland’s receivables that attract a lifetime expected

credit loss provision reducing from 6.32% as at 30 June 2021, to 3.92% as at 30 June 2022.

Financial results


Profitability

NPAT was $95.1 million, an $8.1 million (9.3%) increase on FY2021. Underlying NPAT was $96.1 million, a

$8.2 million (9.3%) increase on FY2021.


ROE was 12.1%, up 21 bps from FY2021. Underlying ROE was 12.6%, up 59 bps from FY2021.


EPS was 16.1 cps, up 1.2 cps from FY2021. Underlying EPS was 16.3 cps, also up 1.2 cps from FY2021.

FY2022 reported results include StockCo Australia earnings contribution since the completion of the

acquisition on 31 May 2022, and one-off items which should be considered when analysing the underlying

result.

14


Significant one-off items included in Heartland’s FY2022 reported results are outlined below.

1. Hedge accounting impacts: A $16.7 million gain was recognised in relation to derivatives that were de-

designated from hedge accounting relationships. Heartland’s hedging strategy was economically very

effective throughout FY2022, with interest rate swaps utilised to hedge fixed lending with tenors

greater than 12 months to 3-month Bank Bill Reference Rate (BKBM), thus limiting volatility to future

interest rate changes. However, 3-month BKBM ceased to be an identifiable risk for hedging

relationships during FY2022. This resulted in balances held in the Cash Flow Hedge Reserve against

these hedge relationships having to be released to the profit and loss for the 30 June 2022 period.



13

Heartland is not required to hold provisions in respect of its Reverse Mortgage portfolios, and so the coverage ratio

does not include those portfolios. Heartland carries the Reverse Mortgage portfolios at fair value, which is currently

determined to be the face value of those loans. There is potential for loss from those loans, however it is immaterial in

the context of the face value of the loans, and does not impact Heartland’s determination that fair value of those loans

is their face value.

Refer to Appendix 3 on page 47 of the accompanying FY2022 investor presentation for an exhaustive list of FY2022

one-offs and a detailed reconciliation between reported and underlying financial information.

2. Impairment provisions: The $9.6 million COVID-19 Overlay, originally raised in FY2020, remained

entirely unutilised and was released in full. However, given the uncertainty of the current operating

environment, it has been considered prudent to create a new $8.0 million Economic Overlay.


3. Fair value loss on equity investment in Harmoney: A $12.7 million net fair value loss was recognised on

investment in Harmoney shares during FY2022. The fair value as at 30 June 2022 takes into

consideration the closing market price of Harmoney shares on the ASX of A$0.71.


The impact of one-off items on the respective financial metrics is outlined in the table below.

Income

Total NOI was $267.6 million, an increase of $16.4 million (6.5%) from FY2021.

Underlying NOI was $262.0 million, $14.9 million (6.0%) higher than in FY2021. This was largely due to a

$14.7 million (6.3%) increase in NII, driven by $599.5 million (11.2%) higher average interest earning assets in

FY2022 than in FY2021, and a 19 bps decrease in underlying NIM compared with FY2021. Underlying other

operating income remained stable year-on-year.


Expenses

Operating expenses were $116.8 million, a decrease of $0.9 million (0.8%) on FY2021. Excluding the impact

of one-offs, the underlying operating expenses were $0.6 million (0.6%) higher compared with FY2021.

Higher underlying operating expenses were primarily due to a $2.8 million (19.2%) increase in IT and

communication expenses, driven by software amortisation and licencing costs as a result of continued

investments in technology and digital capabilities.


The CTI ratio decreased to 43.6%, down 3.2 pps compared with FY2021. The underlying CTI ratio decreased

2.3 pps to 42.5%.


Impairment expense

Impairment expense was $13.8 million, $1.2 million (7.7%) down on FY2021. This includes the net benefit of

$1.6 million due to the release of Heartland’s $9.6 million COVID-19 Overlay, partially offset by the newly

created $8.0 million Economic Overlay. Excluding this and the impacts of the acquisition of StockCo Australia,

underlying impairment expense was $15.7 million, $0.7 million (4.9%) higher than in FY2021.


While the Receivables portfolio recorded strong growth during the year, impairment expense benefitted

from an improved book quality as a result of the continued tilt of the portfolio mix towards lower risk assets.


Financial position

Total assets increased by $1,407.2 million (24.8%) during FY2022, driven by a $1,177.5 million (23.5%)

increase in Receivables.


On an underlying basis, which excludes the impacts of the StockCo Australia acquisition and changes in FX

rates, Receivables grew $765.9 million (15.3%) in FY2022. The unintended effects of changes to the New

Zealand Credit Contracts and Consumer Finance Act 2003 and the Credit Contracts and Consumer Finance

Regulations 2004 (CCCFA), introduced on 1 December 2021, initially resulted in a temporary slowdown,

particularly in the Motor and Home Loans portfolios. Despite this, growth momentum recovered and strong

growth was experienced across the majority of Heartland’s portfolios. This was partly offset by the decrease

in the Harmoney personal loans channel.


Borrowings

17

increased by $1,306.6 million (26.9%). On an underlying basis, which excludes the impacts of

the StockCo Australia acquisition, borrowings increased by $804.9 million (16.5%), with deposits increasing

by $409.1 million (12.8%), while other borrowings increased by $395.8 million (23.6%) during FY2022. See

further information under Funding and liquidity on page 10.


Net assets increased by $47.0 million to $808.7 million. Net tangible assets (NTA) decreased by $111.7

million to $566.8 million, primarily due to growth in intangible assets as a result of the StockCo Australia

acquisition, resulting in an NTA per share of $0.96 (30 June 2021: $1.16).


Business performance


Asset Finance

Asset Finance NOI was $30.6 million, an increase of $2.1 million (7.5%) compared with FY2021.

Asset Finance Receivables increased $62.6 million (11.0%) to $633.6 million. Despite the impacts of COVID-

19, new business growth in FY2022 exceeded expectations as Heartland continues to build its intermediated

partnership strategy and delivery processes. Demand from the logistics and other productive sectors

remained resilient through variable conditions, and activity remains focused in these segments. Significant

market share opportunities exist and will be pursued in FY2023.


Business

Business includes floorplan lending to vehicle retailers and wholesale facilities to other lenders. The portfolio

includes what was previously known as Business Relationship.

Business NOI was $30.9 million, an increase of $4.9 million (18.6%) compared with FY2021.

Business Receivables increased $74.3 million (13.4%)

18

to $629.4 million. Growth in facility utilisation rates

has been driven by strong underlying demand in motor vehicle sales combined with erratic shipping

schedules. Heartland has onboarded new customers in this segment, and supported the growth strategies of

wholesale borrowers in other sectors.

8

Open for Business

Open for Business (O4B) is Heartland’s first digital platform that provides unsecured loans to the small-to-

medium enterprise (SME) sector, with online approval possible within one minute.


O4B NOI was $13.7 million, a decrease of $0.8 million (5.8%) compared with FY2021.


O4B Receivables decreased $3.3 million (2.3%)

16

to $141.2 million. COVID-19 interrupted momentum in

Heartland’s O4B target market more severely than in other Business segments. Although there were signs of

recovery early in FY2022, the arrival of the Omicron COVID-19 variant adversely impacted sector demand

again. O4B growth in FY2023 will remain challenging as the SME sector struggles to accommodate difficult

macro-economic, logistical, and labour conditions.


Motor Finance

Motor Finance NOI was $73.1 million, an increase of $3.9 million (5.6%) compared with FY2021. Motor

Finance Receivables increased $90.8 million (7.0%) to $1.38 billion.


Growth was mainly from the Motor dealer book via car dealerships, brokers and partnerships such as Kia

Finance, Jaguar/Land Rover Financial Services, and Peugeot/Citroen (through Auto Distributors New Zealand

Limited (Auto Distributors) under the iOwn brand). Auto Distributors have also been appointed the

distributors for Opel which arrives in late September 2022.


Growth in FY2022 was hindered by COVID-19 and the unintended effects of changes to the CCCFA

introduced on 1 December 2021, which considerably reduced application automation rates and impacted

conversion rates. Since implementing a new process for premium customers, application automation rates

have started to increase.


Motor Finance portfolio performance returned to more normal levels in the last quarter of FY2022,

recording a 194% increase in growth on the previous quarter, and producing an annualised growth rate of

7.4% for the quarter.


Personal Lending

Personal Lending includes loans originated directly through Heartland Bank, and those originated by

Harmoney in New Zealand and Australia. Personal Lending NOI was $10.3 million, a decrease of $7.0 million

(40.4%) compared with FY2021.

Personal Lending Receivables decreased by $67.3 million (50.9%)

19

to $64.9 million. Harmoney Receivables

decreased by $94.9 million (75.6%)

19

, made up of a decrease in the New Zealand Harmoney channel of $58.3

million (76.0%) to $18.4 million, and a decrease in the Australian Harmoney channel of $36.6 million

(74.9%)

19

to $12.2 million.

Heartland had been in negotiations with Harmoney on proposed new wholesale facilities as Harmoney

moved its funding model from a peer-to-peer off-balance sheet model to wholesale securitised on-balance

sheet funding via warehouse structures. These negotiations ended in March 2022. Heartland’s Harmoney

personal loans channel is therefore running down.


From a risk perspective, Heartland is comfortable with the reduction in Personal Lending in the current

environment.

Home Loans

20


Home Loans NOI was $2.1 million (FY2021: $0.1 million). Home Loans Receivables increased $224.8 million

(450.8%) to $274.7 million.


Rising interest rates drove a high volume of applications in FY2022, as customers sought to lock in

competitive rates. Heartland’s rates were frequently market-leading across standard residential mortgage

products throughout the year.


Although growth in Q2 (1 October to 31 December 2021) was adversely impacted by the unintended effects

of the CCCFA changes, Q3 (1 January to 31 March 2022) advertising saw a return to rapid growth, with the

Home Loans book size increasing by $51.8 million. Heartland’s commitment to decision new loan

applications within 48 hours of receipt of all loan documentation has further disrupted a credit market in

which longer timeframes have traditionally prevailed. Heartland has also experienced strong customer

retention in a competitive market – the retention rate for customers whose fixed rates expired during

2H2022 was 91.1%.


Heartland Home Loans remains in a phase of rapid growth, and is targeting a book size of $495 million by the

end of FY2023.


Rural

Rural lending NOI was $30.2 million, a decrease of $2.0 million (6.1%) compared with FY2021.

Overall Rural portfolio Receivables increased by $102.5 million (17.5%) to $689.1 million. Livestock

Receivables increased by $62.3 million (57.0%) to $171.7 million, and Rural Receivables increased by $40.2

million (8.4%) to $517.4 million.


Heartland’s Livestock business enjoyed record growth in FY2022, resulting from an increase in customers,

and facility utilisation rates reaching a historic high. New and expanded partnership opportunities that were

developed in FY2022 are expected to flow positively into FY2023.


Heartland’s Sheep & Beef Direct platform has been a success story throughout FY2022, contributing 53% of

total Rural new business. The product produced consistent growth, which confirmed the market niche it was

developed for. FY2022 also saw the development of a similar product for dairy farmers, Dairy Direct, which is

expected to grow consistently with Sheep & Beef Direct.


StockCo Australia

On 31 May 2022, Heartland completed the acquisition of StockCo Australia. StockCo Australia specialises in

livestock finance for cattle and sheep farmers across Australia (74% cattle/26% sheep), with total assets of

A$358 million, and a leading position in the market, estimated to be A$7 billion.

21



The acquisition’s total consideration (which includes A$1.6 million of deferred consideration payable subject

to performance hurdles) was A$154.4 million, funded through a A$158 million bridge facility provided by a

major Australasian financial institution. At the same time, a new long-term syndicated securitisation

warehouse was executed, with A$300 million of senior funding provided by two major Australasian financial

institutions.


Heartland’s focus is to build on StockCo Australia’s position as a market-leading provider of specialist

livestock finance for cattle and sheep farmers across Australia.

Transaction costs of $1.2 million were expensed in FY2022, and StockCo Australia contributed $1.4 million to

FY2022 NPAT (excluding bridge finance costs). StockCo Australia is projected to contribute A$10 million to

A$12 million to FY2023 NPAT.


New Zealand Reverse Mortgages

New Zealand Reverse Mortgages NOI was $32.5 million, an increase of $8.1 million (33.4%) compared with

FY2021. Receivables increased $119.8 million (19.9%) to $721.3 million.


Growth was due to:

‒ strong new business particularly in 2H2022 (17.6% higher than in the first half of FY2022);

‒ increased awareness and acceptance of reverse mortgages as a solution to help older homeowners live

a more comfortable retirement;

‒ cost of living increases placing pressure on retirees and a Reverse Mortgage being a solution; and

‒ continued enhancement of the product and application process.


The outlook for New Zealand Reverse Mortgages remains positive, with the pipeline sitting well above the

previous corresponding period. As cost of living pressures continue and indebtedness in retirement

increases, greater awareness and acceptance of reverse mortgages is expected to lead to increased demand

through FY2023.


Australian Reverse Mortgages

Australian Reverse Mortgages NOI was $39.2 million, an increase of $3.0 million (8.2%) compared with

FY2021.


Australian Reverse Mortgages Receivables increased by $163.8 million (15.2%)

22

to $1.24 billion, driven

primarily by:

‒ the relaxation of COVID-19 lockdowns in Australia;

‒ growing acceptance of the use of reverse mortgages to age in place (i.e. for a person to remain in their

home as they age);

‒ promotion by the Australian Federal Government of its Home Equity Access Scheme, normalising equity

release options further; and

‒ targeted marketing to increase uptake and interest at key seasonal points across the year, leading to

record applications and settlements in key months.


Heartland Reverse Mortgages Australia received four awards in FY2022, including Infochoice’s Best Reverse

Mortgage, and Australian Mortgage Awards’ ‘Most Effective Digital Strategy – Lender’ Excellence Award for

its digital focus.


Funding and liquidity


Heartland increased borrowings by $1,306.6 million (26.9%) to $6,170.7 million, contributed to by increases

in New Zealand and Australia.


On an underlying basis, which excludes the impacts of the StockCo Australia acquisition, borrowings

increased by $804.9 million (16.5%) to $5,669.0 million.


New Zealand

Heartland Bank increased borrowings by $624.2 million (16.8%) to $4,346.6 million.

Deposits

23

grew $377.6 million (11.7%) during FY2022 to $3,597.1 million, which was driven primarily by the

launch of a 32 Day Notice Saver product early in the period and, more recently, a 90 Day Notice Saver

product.


During the period, Heartland Bank significantly increased the number of active users of the Heartland Mobile

App, providing an improved customer experience, and enabling employees to focus on providing higher

value service. Heartland Bank was also pleased to be awarded Canstar’s Savings Bank of the Year 2022 (for

the fifth consecutive year), and to receive Canstar awards for its Direct Call and Notice Saver accounts.


Term deposits decreased by $55.5 million (2.5%), while call deposits decreased by $73.1 million (7.6%)

during FY2022, with the call to total deposit ratio decreasing to 25% as at 30 June 2022 (30 June 2021: 30%).


Other borrowings increased by $246.6 million (49.0%), largely driven by increases in Heartland Bank’s

committed auto warehouse facility, whose limit was increased from $300 million to $400 million in

September 2021, with the amount drawn down increasing by $159.6 million.


Heartland Bank’s total liquidity remained stable, increasing by $6.4 million (1.0%) to $627.9 million, well in

excess of regulatory minimums. Regulatory liquidity ratios remained strong.


Heartland Bank’s capital position has progressively increased during FY2022, reflecting its continued strong

profitability and partial removal of the RBNZ restrictions on distributions. Heartland Bank’s regulatory capital

ratio was 13.49% as at 30 June 2022 (30 June 2021: 13.88%), well in excess of regulatory minimums, and

providing a strong platform for Heartland Bank to meet RBNZ’s future higher capital requirements. These

requirements are for a core capital ratio of 11.50% and a total capital ratio of 16.00% by 1 July 2028.


Australia

The Heartland Australia group (comprising Heartland Australia Holdings Pty Ltd and its subsidiaries)

increased borrowings by A$102.6 million (9.3%) to A$1,200.2 million.


The Heartland Australia group continues to successfully execute on its strategic funding programme to cater

for strong growth in its portfolios, with a further A$45 million Medium Term Note (MTN) issued in July 2021,

and a A$115 million MTN issued in May 2022 to refinance an existing A$100 million MTN and provide

additional funding for future growth, taking the aggregate outstanding issuance under Heartland Australia’s

MTN programme to A$280 million as at 30 June 2022. Additionally, a A$30 million tap into an existing A$45

million funding line, maturing in July 2024, was issued in August 2022, adding further diversity to the funding

base.


Maturity of reverse mortgage securitisation warehouses was extended by two and three years, and

aggregate senior limits were expanded by A$100 million, providing additional headroom to fund future

growth in the portfolio. This provides Heartland Australia group with access to A$1.35 billion of committed

funding in aggregate.


Further expansion of existing warehouse funding through increased senior limits and the introduction of

mezzanine funding is well advanced, and focus will continue to be on sourcing optimal long-term duration

matched funding.

Proposed equity raise


Heartland has announced a $200 million equity raise. The proceeds of the equity raise will be used to:

1. repay a A$158 million acquisition finance facility outstanding in relation to the recent acquisition of

StockCo Australia; and

2. provide additional growth capital for Heartland’s existing businesses in both Australia and New Zealand.


The equity raise will comprise a $130 million fully underwritten placement (Placement) and a non-

underwritten share purchase plan to shareholders in New Zealand and Australia to raise up to $70 million

(SPP), with the ability for Heartland to accept oversubscriptions at its discretion.


The Placement is fully underwritten by Jarden Partners Limited, and will be conducted today through a

bookbuild in which institutional and other selected investors in New Zealand, Australia and a limited number

of other jurisdictions will be invited to participate. The Placement has been fully underwritten at a fixed price

of $1.80 per new share, being a 12.8% discount to the ex-dividend adjusted last close price of $2.065 on 22

August 2022, and a 13.7% discount to the 5-day volume weighted average ex-dividend adjusted price of

Heartland shares on the NZX ending on 22 August 2022. ASX settlement will take place on Friday 26 August,

and NZX settlement and allotment of all new shares issued under the Placement will take place on Monday

29 August. A trading halt has been requested from NZX and ASX to facilitate the Placement.


Heartland also intends to undertake a non-underwritten SPP of $70 million to allow eligible shareholders

with an address recorded in Heartland’s share register that is in New Zealand or Australia at 7.00pm NZST

(5.00pm AEST) on the Record Date of Monday 22 August 2022, to apply for up to $50,000/A$45,000 of new

shares. Heartland has the ability to accept oversubscriptions at its discretion. Registered and beneficial

shareholders outside of New Zealand and Australia are not eligible to participate in the SPP. New shares will

be offered under the SPP at the lower of the price paid by investors in the Placement, and a 2.5% discount to

the 5-day volume weighted average price of Heartland shares traded on the NZX during the five NZX trading

days up to, and including, the closing date. The closing date for SPP applications by eligible shareholders is

Monday 5 September 2022.


If the SPP is oversubscribed, applications will be scaled having regard to shareholdings at the Record Date,

and otherwise at Heartland’s discretion.


The SPP Offer Document will be sent to eligible shareholders on Thursday 25 August 2022 and will be

available at www.heartlandshareoffer.co.nz on the same day. This document contains the final terms of the

SPP Offer. Applications can be made through this website or as otherwise directed by Heartland.


Harrogate Trustee Limited, Heartland’s largest shareholder, has committed to bid into the Placement with

the intention of maintaining a minimum shareholding of 9.8% post completion of the proposed equity raise.


New shares to be issued under both the Placement and the SPP will rank equally in all respects with

Heartland’s existing ordinary shares on issue, but will not be eligible for the FY2022 final dividend with a

record date of Friday 26 August 2022 (refer to page 15 for additional detail).


Heartland elected this offer structure due to the volatile market conditions to date in 2022, and its objective

to further diversify its share register to promote increased liquidity on both the NZX and ASX. This is

important in driving long-term value for all shareholders, by attracting depth of investment and widening

demand. Heartland will endeavour to treat existing shareholders in eligible jurisdictions fairly through the

Placement via an allocation policy that seeks, to the extent possible, to provide pro rata allocations to

existing shareholders that bid for at least such into the Placement. Heartland is also utilising its placement

capacity to increase the ability of shareholders to participate in the SPP the maximum amount possible


Heartland Group Holdings Limited | 0800 85 20 20 | PO Box 9919, Newmarket, Auckland 1149 | shareholders.heartland.co.nz

13

under the NZX Listing Rules for a SPP without utilising placement capacity, being 5% of shares on issue and

$15,000 per applicant. The SPP provides to participants the benefit of a downside pricing mechanism which

is not available in pro rata structures.

Regulatory update


Heartland continues to monitor the significant volume of regulatory change.


Initial changes to the CCCFA came into force on 1 December 2021. Heartland Bank implemented new

processes and technologies to enable it to comply with these changes, and continues to refine

them. Additional CCCFA changes were announced in June 2022 (effective 7 July 2022). Following the

completion of the New Zealand Government’s investigation into the impact of the December 2021 changes,

further amendments which seek to reduce the unintended impacts of the initial changes are expected to be

implemented in March 2023.


The Financial Markets (Conduct of Financial Institutions) Amendment Act 2022 (Conduct Act) was passed in

June 2022, and is planned to come into force in early 2025, following a transitional period. The Conduct Act

applies to registered banks, licensed insurers and licensed non-bank deposit takers, and is regulated by the

Financial Markets Authority (FMA). The Conduct Act introduces a new conduct licensing regime, the

requirement to establish, implement, maintain and comply with a fair conduct programme, and the

regulation of incentives (via new regulations which are yet to be consulted on). Incentives regulations will

apply both to Heartland Bank and its intermediaries involved in the distribution of its products.


New legislation (to be known as the Deposit Takers Bill) is being developed to:

1. strengthen the regulatory framework for all institutions that take deposits (including Heartland Bank)

through the strengthening of the RBNZ’s supervision and enforcement powers; and

2. introduce a new depositor compensation scheme, overseen by the RBNZ.


An exposure draft of the Deposit Takers Bill is expected to be introduced to Parliament in the latter half of

2022.

Dates are subject to change and are indicative only.


Heartland Group Holdings Limited | 0800 85 20 20 | PO Box 9919, Newmarket, Auckland 1149 | shareholders.heartland.co.nz

14

In June 2022, the RBNZ announced the remaining dividend restrictions placed on banks, in response to the

impact of COVID-19, would be removed from 1 July 2022.


Continued preparation is underway to meet the Climate-Related Disclosures obligations introduced through

the Financial Sector (Climate-related Disclosures and Other Matters) Amendment Act 2021, with Heartland’s

first climate statement required as part of reporting for the period ended 30 June 2024.


Sustainability update


Delivering sustainable profitability is a key tenet of Heartland’s overarching purpose and is supported by

Heartland’s three pillars of sustainability: environmental, social and economic. Key achievements for FY2022

in each area of sustainability are noted below.


Environmental conservation

‒ Continued work towards hitting Heartland’s ambitious emissions reduction targets, achieving a 31%

absolute reduction in Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions (estimated to be 21% when the short-term

impacts of COVID-19 are taken into account) in the two years to FY2021 (Heartland’s most recent GHG

emissions reporting period).

‒ Currently measuring Heartland’s FY2022 GHG emissions. This will be completed during FY2023 so that

Heartland will be in a position to report its FY2023 GHG emissions as part of its FY2023 financial

reporting. From FY2023, Heartland’s GHG emissions reporting will include emissions attributed to

customer activity enabled though lending.

‒ Heartland is financing an increasing number of “new generation” (electric and hybrid) vehicles. During

FY2022, 5% of vehicles financed in our Motor portfolio were new generation. However, that percentage

increased steadily over the year and continues to climb as Heartland’s key partners (including Kia,

Peugeot, Citroen, Jaguar and Land Rover) increase their production of new generation vehicles.

‒ Conducted analysis of the physical risks (including flood, drought or other natural hazard risk) and

transitional risks (including the potential for climate change related regulatory change, the ongoing

availability of insurance, and changes in borrower behaviour and preferences) of two climate change

scenarios over the medium- and long-term, to understand the potential impact of climate change on

Heartland’s portfolios, and support informed decision making going forward.

‒ Commenced the replacement of all fleet 4WD vehicles (23% of the fleet) with hybrid alternatives, with

the aim of converting the majority of the fleet to hybrid or electric by the end of 2023.

‒ Contributed to the consultation process for the mandatory reporting regime for climate-related

disclosures in New Zealand via memberships with the New Zealand Bankers Association (NZBA) and the

Climate Leaders Coalition.


Social equity

‒ Introduced pay gap reporting for gender and ethnicity. Heartland’s gender pay gap of 23% as at 31

January 2022 was 8% below the financial and insurance services industry average. Heartland’s Māori

and Pasifika pay gaps were 25% each. Pay gaps as at 30 June 2022 will be reported in the Annual Report

published on 28 September 2022.

‒ Heartland Bank achieved the Rainbow Tick in November 2021.

‒ Heartland Bank was a finalist in the 2022 HRNZ Awards in the Leader Māori HR award category for its

Manawa Ako internship programme.

‒ 93% of employees resonate with Heartland’s mātāpono (values) as being important values to them.

‒ Heartland Trust

25

grants totalled $501,933 to community groups and organisations.



25

The Heartland Trust is a registered charitable trust which is independent from, but closely supported by Heartland

and Heartland Bank.


Heartland Group Holdings Limited | 0800 85 20 20 | PO Box 9919, Newmarket, Auckland 1149 | shareholders.heartland.co.nz

15

‒ Implemented processes and controls across Heartland to prevent any connection to modern day

slavery, whether through Heartland practices, customer practices, or supply chain connections.


Economic prosperity

‒ Enabled more than 40,000 New Zealanders and Australians to live a more comfortable retirement

through a reverse mortgage.

‒ Grew the Australian business through the acquisition of livestock financier StockCo Australia, which is

expected to contribute A$10-12 million to FY2023 NPAT.

‒ Continued to offer customers cost savings through some of New Zealand’s lowest mortgage rates with

Heartland’s self-serve online Home Loans application, despite a rapidly rising interest rate environment.

‒ Updated Heartland’s Procurement Policy to connect it more closely with Heartland’s sustainability

framework, with the aim of promoting Heartland’s values amongst new and existing supply-chain

partners, and supporting a more diverse and inclusive network.

‒ Delivered total shareholder return (TSR) of 66.9% over the last five years (19 August 2017 – 19 August

2022), compared with the NZX50 Index TSR of 56.7% in the same period.


More information and goals for the year ahead will be included in Heartland’s FY2022 Annual Report, to be

published on 28 September 2022 and available at shareholders.heartland.co.nz.


Final dividend


Heartland is pleased to declare a FY2022 final dividend of 5.5 cps, taking the total FY2022 dividend to 11.0

cps (flat on 2021). This represents a full year payout ratio of 68% which compares to the average over the

last three years of 69%. The dividend yield of 7.1%

26

is unchanged from FY2021

27

.


The final dividend will be paid on Wednesday 14 September 2022 (Payment Date) to shareholders on the

company’s register as at 5.00pm on Friday 26 August 2022

28

(Record Date) and will be fully imputed.


Heartland’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRP), giving eligible shareholders the opportunity to reinvest some

or all of their dividend payments into new ordinary shares, is suspended for the final dividend due to the

proposed equity raise – see page 11.


Looking forward


The current economic environment presents the obvious challenges of rising inflation and rapidly rising

interest rates, tempered somewhat by low unemployment, flowing through into business and consumer

confidence.


To a meaningful extent, Heartland is insulated against these challenges due to expected levels of growth in

Reverse Mortgages (driven by demographics) and Livestock (driven by global demand for protein).


The large number of residential mortgages in New Zealand coming off fixed rates during the course of the

year should support ongoing growth of Home Loans. There is optimism that market share gains in Motor and

Asset Finance are available to underpin growth in markets that have seen some supply disruptions and a

decline in confidence. Similarly, Heartland’s focus on parts of the rural market that are underserviced by

FY2021 total fully imputed dividends divided by the closing share price as at 20 August 2021 of $2.16.

NZ RegCo granted Heartland a waiver from the five Business Day notice requirement under NZX Listing Rule 3.14.1 in

relation to the final dividend.

16

larger banks, has the potential to offset the ongoing exit of larger rural relationship loans. However, this

must be weighed against decreasing confidence levels in some sections of the market.


With regard to risk in this environment, while Heartland has released its COVID-19 Overlay, it has adopted an

Economic Overlay of $8 million in order to provide coverage for a potential downside scenario. Alongside

this, the portfolio mix has shifted towards higher quality loans, with a strong increase in particular of Reverse

Mortgages, which are expected to continue to perform very well.


Efforts will continue to create efficiencies and frictionless service at the lowest cost. It will also be a very

important year for Heartland’s Australian strategy – the first full year with StockCo Australia as a member of

the Group, and in progressing Heartland’s pathway to becoming a bank through obtaining an ADI licence in

Australia.


Heartland expects NPAT for FY2023 to be within the guidance range of $109 million to $114 million,

excluding any impacts of fair value changes on equity investments held.

Financial data
All dollar values are in New Zealand dollars (NZ$ or NZD) unless otherwise stated.

This presentation includes certain financial measures that are "non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting practice) financial

information" under Guidance Note 2017: 'Disclosing non-GAAP financial information' published by the New Zealand Financial

Markets Authority, "non-IFRS financial information" under ASIC Regulatory Guide 230: 'Disclosing non-IFRS financial information'

and "non-GAAP financial measures" within the meaning of Regulation G under the U.S. Exchange Act of 1934. Disclosure of such

non-GAAP financial measures in the manner included in this presentation would not be permissible in a registration statement

under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934.Such financial information and financial measures (including underlying profit or

loss, underlying ROE, underlying CTI ratios and underlying EPS) do not have standardised meanings prescribed under New

Zealand equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS), Australian Accounting Standards (AAS) or

International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and therefore, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented

by other entities.

Because the Company complies with accounting standards, investors know that comparisons can be made with confidence

between reported profits and those of other companies, and there is integrity in the Company’s reporting approach. These non-

GAAP figures are provided as a supplementary measure for readers to assess the Company’s performance alongside NZ GAAP

reported measures, where one-offs, both positive and negative, can make it difficult to compare profits between years. However,

these do not have standardisedmeanings and should not be viewed in isolation nor considered a substitute for measures

Strategic vision

•A focused strategic vision to provide best or only products via scalable digital platforms, achieved through:

‒Business as Usual Growth

‒Frictionless Service at the Lowest Cost

‒Expansion in Australia

‒Acquisitions.

•Heartland continues to explore options to establish or acquire an authoriseddeposit-taking institution (ADI) licencein Australia.

Capital raising overview

•$200 million equity raising comprising:

‒$130 million fully underwritten placement (Placement)

‒$70 million non-underwritten share purchase plan (SPP), with the ability for Heartland to accept oversubscriptions at its

discretion.

•Proceeds will be used to repay the A$158 million acquisition finance facility outstanding in relation to the recent acquisition of StockCo

Australia, and to provide additional growth capital for Heartland’s existing businesses in Australia and New Zealand.

•The structure is designed to avoid volatility, but primarily to address Heartland’s share liquidity due to low levels of institutional

investment. This is important in driving long-term value for all shareholders, by attracting depth of investment and widening demand.

Impairments, provisioning and
operating environment

•The current operating environment continues to present challenges, with heightened geopolitical tensions and rising inflation

contributing to increasing cost of living and rapidly rising interest rates.

•Heartland remains focused on ensuring support is provided to customers who may be struggling in the current environment.

Notwithstanding these pressures, Heartland’s loan portfolios have performed strongly. Underlying impairment expense ratio was

29 bps in FY2022, 2 bps lower than in FY2021.

•Impairment expense was $13.8 million, $1.2 million (7.7%) down on FY2021. This includes the net benefit of $1.6 million due to the

release of Heartland’s $9.6 million COVID-19 Overlay, partially offset by the newly created $8.0 million Economic Overlay.

•Excluding this and the impacts of the acquisition of StockCo Australia, underlying impairment expense was $15.7 million, $0.7

million (4.9%) higher than in FY2021.

•While the Receivables portfolio recorded strong growth during the year, impairment expense benefitted from an improved book

quality as a result of the continued tilt of the portfolio mix towards lower risk assets.

•Heartland’s COVID-19 Overlay of $9.6 million, taken in FY2020, has been released in full.

•The Overlay was taken to provide a buffer against any future losses that the uncertainty of COVID-19 may have given rise to.

Heartland now has more certainty around those impacts than in 2020, and its lending portfolios have benefited from improved

quality as the portfolio mix has moved towards higher quality and lower risk assets.

•The Overlay has not been utilisedby Heartland, and there is no longer any basis for retaining it.

•However, given the above-mentioned uncertainty and economic pressures facing businesses, it has been considered prudent to

create an Economic Overlay of $8.0 million. The Economic Overlay will provide more resilience in areas such as Business

Relationship lending and Asset Finance which have larger loan sizes.

Risk
•Heartland’s portfolio mix has continued to move towards higher quality and lower risk assets.

•For example, Heartland’s Reverse Mortgage portfolios in New Zealand and Australia have grown considerably and continue to

perform very strongly.

•Heartland’s Home Loans portfolio has grown significantly –conservative lending standards mean this book has performed very

strongly and is expected to be highly resilient to house price reductions and other potential economic shocks.

•Livestock, which has historically proven to be a resilient portfolio, has also grown significantly.

•Motor has not only grown, but has also benefited from improved quality as the volume of new car business in that book continues

to increase.

•At the same time, Heartland’s Personal Loans portfolio has reduced.

•Heartland’s total (collective and specific) provisions as at 30 June 2022 were $52.0 million, with a coverage ratio of 1.24%.This is a

reduction from the coverage ratio of 1.61% as at 30 June 2021, but is reflective of the improved quality and mix of Heartland’s

portfolios (including the growth of online Home Loans and Livestock Finance, and the reduction of the Harmoney Corp Limited

(Harmoney) personal loans channel). This improved quality is evidenced by the percentage of Heartland’s receivables that attracta

lifetime expected credit loss provision reducing from 6.32% as at 30 June 2021, to 3.92% as at 30 June 2022.

Heartland is not required to hold provisions in respect of its Reverse Mortgage portfolios, and so the coverage ratio does not include those portfolios. Heartland carries the Reverse Mortgage portfolios at fair value, which is currently determined to bethe face value of those loans. There is potential for loss from those loans,

however it is immaterial in the context of the face value of the loans, and does not impact Heartland’s determination that fair value of those loans is their face value.

Further opportunities for growth in Australia
•Heartland has been exploring opportunities to establish or acquire an ADI in Australia. Becoming a bank through an ADI in Australia would make possible a number of benefits:

‒access to a deep and efficient pool of funding to support ongoing growth;

‒potential uplift in margin, to the extent that retail funding rates are less than wholesale rates; and

‒a platform to extend Heartland’s best or only strategy into Australia.

•The aim is to create the potential for a digital bank which, once Heartland assets are transferred into it, would be profitable.This, together with Heartland’s best or only strategy, provides the

opportunity for a differentiated proposition.

•To this end, Heartland has entered into a non-binding memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Avenue Hold Limited (Avenue Hold) in relation to the potential acquisition of Avenue Hold and its

subsidiary Avenue Bank Limited (Avenue Bank). Avenue Bank is a restricted ADI and is seeking to progress to becoming a full ADI.

•Any establishment or acquisition by Heartland of an ADI in Australia would be subject to regulatory approvals.

•Subject to regulatory approvals and transaction completion, Heartland’s existing businesses in Australia would be transferredtosit in or under Avenue Bank, and this would be the vehicle for growth

in Australia.

•In accordance with the MoU, Heartland has made an initial subscription for $5 million of capital in Avenue Hold. Heartland’s duediligence review is continuing, as is negotiation of binding transaction

documentation. Completion of any transaction is expected to be conditional upon a number of matters (which may include Heartlandsecuring acquisition funding, Heartland being satisfied as to the

likelihood of Avenue Bank progressing to being a full ADI, Avenue Hold shareholder support of the transaction, receipt of allnecessary regulatory approvals (including from APRA and the RBNZ), and

the absence of any material adverse change).

•Any requirements or conditions of regulatory approvals (including capital and liquidity requirements for the bank and relevant business of Heartland held below Heartland’s top-level holding company

in Australia, Heartland Australia Holdings Pty Limited (HAH)) will:

‒become known only as engagement with APRA and RBNZ progresses; and

‒be relevant to Heartland’s decision to proceed with the transaction.

•It is currently expected that completion of any acquisition would take place no earlier than the last quarter of FY2023, and possibly not until the first half of FY2024. The consideration payable by

Heartland on completion is expected to be A$49 million, subject to adjustments.

•For regulatory reasons, Heartland would be required to hold any ADI in Australia through an Australian incorporated non-operating holding company (NOHC) which is approved and regulated by

APRA. It is currently anticipated that HAH would be the appropriate vehicle to apply to APRA for authority to act as a NOHC. To pre-position HAH for this opportunity, Heartland is seeking the

consent of the RBNZ for HAH to also act as the NOHC of Heartland Bank in New Zealand. This would not result in any change to Heartland Bank’s beneficial ownership. This engagement with RBNZ

is at an early stage.

Regulatory update

and outlook

Regulatory update
Heartland continues to monitor the significant volume of regulatory change.

Changes to the CCCFA

•Initial changes came into force on 1 December 2021.

•Heartland Bank implemented new processes and technologies to enable it to comply with these changes and continues to refine them.

•Additional CCCFA changes were announced in June 2022 (effective 7 July 2022).

•Following completion of the Government’s investigation into the impact of the December 2021 changes, further changes which seek to reduce the unintended

impacts of these changes are expected to be implemented in March 2023.

Financial Markets (Conduct of Financial Institutions) Amendment Act 2022

•Passed in June 2022, the Act is planned to come into force in early 2025 following a transitional period.

•Applies to registered banks, licensed insurers and licensed non-bank deposit takers and is regulated by the Financial Markets Authority (FMA).

•The Act introduces a new conduct licensing regime, the requirement to establish, implement, maintain and comply with a fair conduct programmeand the

regulation of incentives (via new regulations which are yet to be consulted on).

•Incentives regulations will apply both to Heartland Bank and its intermediaries involved in the distribution of its products.

Proposed Deposit Takers Act

•New legislation is being developed to:

‒strengthen the regulatory framework for all institutions that take deposits (including Heartland Bank) through the strengtheningof RBNZ’s supervision

and enforcement powers; and

‒introduce a new depositor compensation scheme, overseen by RBNZ.

•An exposure draft of the Deposit Takers Bill is expected to be introduced to Parliament in the latter half of 2022.

Removal of RBNZ dividend restrictions placed on banks

•In June 2022, the RBNZ announced the remaining dividend restrictions placed on banks would be removed from 1 July 2022.

Climate-Related Disclosures

•Continued preparation is underway to meet the Climate-Related Disclosures obligations introduced through the Financial Sector (Climate-related Disclosures

and Other Matters) Amendment Act 2021, with Heartland’s first climate statement required as part of reporting for the period ended 30 June 2024.

36

Lookingforward
•The current economic environment presents the obvious challenges of rising inflation and rapidly rising interest rates, temperedsomewhat by low

unemployment, flowing through into business and consumer confidence.

•To a meaningful extent, Heartland is insulated against these challenges due to expected levels of growth in Reverse Mortgages(driven by demographics)

and Livestock (driven by global demand for protein).

•The large number of residential mortgages in New Zealand coming off fixed rates during the course of the year should support ongoing growth of Home

Loans. Continued market share gains in Motor and Asset Finance is expected to underpin growth in markets that have seen supply disruptions and a

decline in confidence. Similarly, Heartland’s focus on parts of the rural market that are underserviced by larger banks, has thepotential to offset the

ongoing exit of larger rural relationship loans. However, this must be weighed against decreasing confidence levels in some sections of the market.

•With regard to risk in this environment, while Heartland has released its COVID-19 Overlay, it has adopted an Economic Overlay of $8 million in order to

provide coverage for a potential downside scenario. Alongside this, the portfolio mix has shifted towards higher quality loans, with a strong increase in

particular of Reverse Mortgages, which are expected to continue to perform very well.

•Efforts will continue to create efficiencies and frictionless service at the lowest cost. It will also be a very important year for Heartland’s Australian

strategy –the first full year with StockCo Australia as a member of the Group, and in progressing Heartland’s pathway to becoming a bank through

obtaining an ADI licencein Australia.

Heartland expects NPAT for FY2023 to be in the range of $109 million to $114 million, excluding any impacts of fair value changes on equity investments held.

This section does not (and does not purport to) set out all of the risks related to an investment in Heartland shares, the future
operating or financial performance of Heartland, the proposed equity raise or general market or industry risks. Some risks may

be unknown and other risks, currently believed to be immaterial, could turn out to be material.

In light of heightened geopolitical tensions, rising inflation contributing to an increasing cost of living and rapidly rising interest

rates, extra caution should also be taken when assessing the risks associated with the investment. These ever-evolving

situations continue to pose challenges for global financial markets and the economy as a whole. Capital markets continue to

see equity securities suffer from spikes in volatility and significant price declines.

As a financial institution, Heartland is exposed to credit, capital, liquidity, market (including interest rate), operational,

compliance and general business risk. Heartland has implemented structures, policies, procedures, controls and information

systems that it considers appropriate to manage these risks, but there are inherent limitations to any risk management

framework –Heartland is exposed to risks that may not be anticipated or are outside its control, or its risk management

framework may not operate effectively. If any of Heartland’s risk management processes and procedures prove ineffective or

inadequate or are otherwise not appropriately implemented, Heartland could suffer unexpected losses and reputational

damage which could adversely affect Heartland’s business and financial performance.

Before deciding whether to invest in Heartland shares, you must make your own assessment of the risks associated with such

an investment and consider whether it is suitable for you, having regard to publicly available information (including this

presentation), your personal circumstances and following consultation with a financial adviser or other professional adviser.

Key risks

This section outlines the key risks that Heartland has identified as relevant to investors in the

proposed equity raise. These risks may affect the future operating and financial performance of

Heartland and the Heartland share price. Like any investment, there are risks associated with an

investment in Heartland’s shares.

41

Risks
42

Macro-economic conditions•Increased volatility in macro-economic conditions (rising inflation, increasing costs of living and rapidly rising interest rates) is being experienced as a

result of geopolitical tensions and other factors.

•Severe deterioration in macro-economic conditions could impact on the availability and/or utility of Heartland’s funding arrangements or otherwise

impact upon Heartland’s liquidity.

•It could also result in increased credit risk through higher unemployment for consumers and adverse financial conditions for businesses.

As a financial services group, either of those outcomes could have a material adverse impact on Heartland.

Successful execution of

strategic objectives

•Heartland’s strategy involves continuing to seek and execute on growth opportunities, either through business as usual growthoracquisitions.

•The proposed equity raise will provide Heartland with capital to continue to grow. There is a risk that Heartland may not be successful in executing its

growth strategies, resulting in costs being incurred without commensurate benefits being enjoyed. In addition, there are other risks associated with this

strategy. Those risks include Heartland’s ability to successfully compete in the increasingly competitive landscape in which Heartland operates; the fact

that Heartland’s growth ambitions are, in some cases, reliant on the receipt of regulatory approvals which are beyond Heartland’s control; and that

overall market conditions mean that it is more challenging to execute Heartland’s strategy within normal timeframes and budgets in the current

environment.

People and projects•The tight labourmarket and health impacts on the workforce from the ongoing prevalence of COVID-19 strains and other illnesses affects the

continuity and availability of people and make recruiting of appropriately qualified employees challenging. This is particularlyin areas where key skills

are in high demand. Resource challenges could affect the delivery of major projects at Heartland, achievement of strategic priorities, and the smooth

functioning of business operations.

Information technology and

cybersecurity

•Heartland relies on the performance, reliability and availability of its information technology, communication and other business systems. Malicious or

operational causes, damage, interruption or failure of Heartland’s key systems and cybersecurity measures, or compromise of data, could result in

significant disruptions to Heartland’s business, reputational damage, and heightened regulatory scrutiny.

•Heartland is currently undertaking a program of investment in its information technology systems. Heartland is upgrading its core banking system,

Flexcube, provided by Oracle, which is expected to be completed by November. Associated projects are also occurring, which are contingent on

completion of the Flexcubeupgrade. The program is currently operating on schedule, however, experience suggests that issues may arise which cause

delays and/or cost overruns, and could possibly impact upon FY2023 NPAT.

Risks cont.
43

Biosecurity•Heartland Bank has a livestock and rural funding business in New Zealand. Heartland Group recently acquired StockCo Australia, amarket-leading

provider of specialist livestock finance for cattle and sheep farmers across Australia. Through these businesses, Heartland either finances, or takes

security, over livestock, which exposes Heartland to disease and mortality risk.

•There is presently a Foot and Mouth outbreak in Bali. Should Foot and Mouth disease reach Australia or New Zealand, there areGovernmental response

plans to stamp it out by immediately controlling movement of livestock, isolating, tracing and culling livestock. There are alsocompensation schemes

available for farmers of culled livestock. Those measures, in addition to Heartland’s origination procedures and lending standards, are expected to limit

Heartland’s longer term risk, however there could be a material adverse effect on Heartland’s financial performance in the shortterm due to a national

market price reduction in the early stages of an incursion, potential delays in receiving compensation payments and/or lengthened trades due to

processing challenges.

Regulatory impact•The financial services sector continues to face significant regulatory scrutiny and change. Any failures by Heartland to comply with existing regulatory

requirements may impact both Heartland’s business and its reputation. Future changes in laws and regulations in New Zealand and Australia may

require changes to Heartland’s business plan and model and may affect Heartland’s financial performance.

Reverse Mortgage portfolio

risk

•Heartland has portfolios of reverse mortgage loans in both New Zealand and Australia.

•The terms of Heartland’s reverse mortgage loans mean that a borrower can choose to live in their home for as long as they wish, and the amount

required to repay their loan will never exceed the sale proceeds of their property. This exposes Heartland to some risk (namely that the loan balance

exceeds the value of the property). Heartland monitors and is comfortable with this risk, but significant movements in borrower mortality trends, trends

in borrower movement to retirement care facilities, interest rates and house price inflation could increase that risk and have amaterial adverse impact

on Heartland.

•Reverse mortgage loans are also an area of heightened potential reputational risk. Heartland has comprehensive origination procedures and lending

standards which aim to eliminate any source of potential reputational risk, but there is a chance that those lending standards may not operate

effectively on occasion and that Heartland could be exposed to reputational risk.

Hedge accounting•Heartland endeavoursto fully hedge the economics of its interest rate risks. The derivatives used to create these hedges are subject to different

accounting treatment than the loan and deposit books. Hedge accounting for derivatives is complex, and in some market environments where ordinary

correlations dislocate, it is difficult to achieve. This may cause accounting hedge ineffectiveness, or for hedge accounting relationships to fail, resulting in

some gain or loss through profit or loss. Should this occur, it could possibly impact upon FY2023 NPAT, however it would be non-cash and not reflective

of underlying performance.

Questio

n No.

Question Answer

2A.1 *Type of dividend/distribution

Each form can only relate to one record date and

payment date but may have multiple types of payment

for example an ordinary and special dividend. Please

note that dividends/distributions on units in listed

trusts, units in quoted ETFs or Managed Funds, and

preference securities are classified as “Ordinary”.

☒ Ordinary (must be cash) Please complete Part

3A.

☐ Special (must be cash) Please complete Part

3B.

☐ Scrip (must be scrip) Please complete Part 3C.


2A.2 *The dividend/distribution:

Tick one only to indicate length of period to which the

dividend/distribution applies. ASX’s system classifies

interim/final dividends/distributions as six monthly if

both are paid. If a final only is paid it is classified as

relating to a period of twelve months. Where a scrip

or special dividend/distribution is paid at the same

time as an ordinary dividend/distribution it has the

same period classification as the ordinary.

If the dividend/distribution is special and/or scrip only

then “does not relate to a specific period within the

financial year in which it was paid” may be applicable.

☐ relates to a period of one month.

☐ relates to a period of one quarter.

☒ relates to a period of six months.

☐ relates to a period of twelve months.

☐ does not relate to a specific period within

the financial year in which it was paid.

2A.3 *The dividend/distribution relates to the

financial reporting or payment period

ended/ending (date)

The period ended date must match the end date of

the reporting period of any Appendix 4D, 4E or 4F

lodged by the entity at the same time as this form and

which includes the details of the dividend/distribution

announced in this form. For dividends/distributions on

units in listed trusts, units in quoted ETFs or Managed

Funds, and preference securities, the period

ended/ending date may correspond to the payment

date and may be a future date. If a special or scrip

dividend/distribution is notified at the same time as

another dividend/distribution which relates to a period

of one month, one quarter, six months or twelve

months then the special or scrip dividend/distribution

will be characterised with the same period type and

will have the same period ended as that

dividend/distribution. If the dividend/distribution is

special and/or scrip only and “does not relate to a

specific period within the financial year in which it was

paid” has been ticked in Q2A.2, then a period ended

date may not be applicable.

2A.4 *

+

Record date

The record date must be at least four business days

from current date (refer Appendix 6A section 1).

trade “ex” dividend/distribution from the ex date.

Please note that the record date and ex date cannot

2A.7 *Are any of the below approvals required

for the dividend/distribution before

business day 0 of the timetable?


+

Security holder approval

• Lodgement of court order with

+

ASIC

• ACCC approval

• FIRB approval

• Another approval/condition external to

Notes to the Financial Statements

For the year ended 30 June 2022

1 Financial statements preparation

Reporting entity

The financial statements presented are the consolidated financial statements comprising Heartland Group Holdings (HGH) and its

subsidiaries (the Group). Refer to Note 26 – Significant subsidiaries for further details.

As at 30 June 2022, HGH is a company incorporated in New Zealand under the Companies Act 1993 and a Financial Market

Conduct (FMC) reporting entity for the purposes of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013.

Basis of preparation

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

Zealand (NZ GAAP) the New Zealand Exchange (NZX) Main Board Listing Rules and the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) Listing

Rules. The financial statements comply with New Zealand equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS) and

other applicable Financial Reporting Standards as appropriate for profit-oriented entities. The financial statements also comply

with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

The consolidated financial statements are presented in New Zealand dollars which is the Group's functional and presentation

currency. Unless otherwise indicated, amounts are rounded to the nearest thousand dollars.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis after considering the Group's funding and

liquidity position.

The accounting policies adopted have been applied consistently throughout the periods presented in these consolidated financial

statements.

Certain comparative balances have been reclassified to align with the presentation used in the current financial year. These

reclassifications have no impact on the overall financial performance or financial position for the comparative year.

Basis of measurement

The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost, except for certain financial instruments and

investment properties, which are measured at their fair values as identified in the accounting policies set out in the accompanying

notes to the financial statements.

Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements of the Group incorporate the assets, liabilities and results of all controlled entities.

Controlled entities are all entities in which the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the

entities and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entities. Intercompany transactions, balances and

any unrealised income and expense (except for foreign currency transaction gains or losses) between controlled entities are

eliminated.

Assets and liabilities in a transactional currency that is not the New Zealand dollar, are translated at the exchange rates ruling at

balance date. Revenue and expense items are translated at the average rate at the balance date. Exchange differences are taken

to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

P. 13
1 Financial statements preparation (continued)

Changes in accounting standards

Accounting standards issued and effective

There have been no changes to accounting policies or new or amended standards that are issued and effective that are expected

to have a material impact on the Group.

Accounting standards issued not yet effective

The final version of NZ IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts was issued in August 2017 and is applicable to general and life insurance

contracts. The standard will be effective for the Group’s reporting for the financial year ending 30 June 2024, including 30

June 2023 comparatives.

Marac Insurance Limited (MIL), a subsidiary of Heartland Bank Limited (HBL), ceased writing insurance policies in 2020 with the

periodic policies expected to expire in 2025.

Other amendments to existing standards that are not yet effective are not expected to have a material impact on the Group.

Estimates and judgements

The preparation of the Group’s consolidated financial statements requires the use of estimates and judgements. This note

provides an overview of the areas that involve a higher degree of judgement or complexity. Detailed information about each of

these estimates and judgements is included in the relevant notes together with the basis of calculation for each affected item in

the financial statements.

Provisions for impairment - The effect of credit risk is quantified based on the Group's best estimate of future cash

repayments and proceeds from any security held or by reference to risk profile groupings, historical loss data and forward-

looking information. Refer to Note 8 - Impaired asset expense, and Note 13 - Finance receivables for further details.

Investment in equity securities - Judgements have been applied in techniques to determine the fair value of Harmoney

equity securities to reflect the underlying characteristics. Refer to Note 21 - Fair value for further details.

Fair value of reverse mortgages - Fair value is quantified by the transaction price and the Group’s subsequent best estimate

of the risk profile of the reverse mortgage portfolio. Refer to Note 21 - Fair value for further details.

Goodwill - Determining the fair value of assets and liabilities of acquired businesses requires the Group to exercise

judgement. The carrying value of goodwill is tested annually for impairment, refer to Note 18 - Other balance sheet items.

Assumptions made at each reporting date (e.g. the calculation of the provision for impairment and fair value adjustments) are

based on best estimates as at that date. Although the Group has internal controls in place to ensure that estimates can be reliably

measured, actual amounts may differ from these estimates. The estimates and judgements used in the preparation of the Group’s

financial statements are continually evaluated. They are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations

of future events that may have a financial impact on the entity. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the reporting

period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

COVID-19 Pandemic - Impact on Estimates and Judgements

The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in the Group adopting an economic overlay for expected credit losses (ECL) to its portfolios as at

30 June 2020 of pre-tax $9.6 million in response to the uncertain but potential economic impact of COVID-19 on HGH's borrowers

(COVID Overlay). The COVID Overlay was sized based on a range of techniques including stress testing, benchmarking, scenario

analysis and expert judgement.

Whilst economic uncertainty remains, credit risk factors arising from the impact of COVID-19 are now apparent. Consequently the

COVID Overlay has been released in full and it has been considered appropriate to create an economic overlay of $8.0 million as

at 30 June 2022, resulting in a net $1.6 million release to profit or loss.

The accounting judgement that is most impacted by the economic overlay is the ECL on finance receivables at amortised cost. The

Group measures the allowance for ECL using an impairment model in compliance with NZ IFRS 9 Financial Instruments.

P. 14
1 Financial statements preparation (continued)

Financial assets and liabilities

Financial Assets

Financial assets are classified based on:

The business model within which the assets are managed; and

Whether the contractual cash flows of the instrument represent solely payment of principal and interest (SPPI).

The Group determines the business model at the level that reflects how groups of financial assets are managed. When assessing

the business model, the Group considers factors including how performance and risks are managed, evaluated and reported and

the frequency and volume of, and reason for sales in previous periods.

Financial assets are classified into the following measurement categories:

Financial Assets Measurement Category Note

Bank bonds and floating rate notesFair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)11

Public sector securities and corporate bondsFVOCI11

Equity investmentsFair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) and FVOCI11

Finance receivables – Reverse mortgagesFVTPL13

Finance receivablesAmortised cost13

Financial assets measured at amortised cost

Financial assets are measured at amortised cost if they are held within a business model whose objective is achieved through

holding the financial asset to collect contractual cash flows which represent SPPI.

Financial assets at amortised cost are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the

effective interest rate method.

Financial assets measured at FVOCI

Financial assets are measured at FVOCI if they are held within a business model whose objective is achieved both through

collecting contractual cash flows which represent SPPI or selling the financial asset.

Financial assets at FVOCI are measured at fair value with unrealised gains and losses recognised in other comprehensive income

except for interest income, impairment charges and foreign exchange gains and losses, which are recognised in profit or loss.

P. 15
1 Financial statements preparation (continued)

Financial assets and liabilities (continued)

Financial Assets (continued)

Financial assets measured at FVTPL

Financial assets are measured at FVTPL if:

they are held within a business model whose objective is achieved through selling or repurchasing the financial asset in the

near term, or forms part of a portfolio of financial instruments that are managed together and for which there is evidence of

short-term profit taking; or

they are designated at FVTPL upon initial recognition to eliminate or reduce an accounting mismatch.

Financial assets at FVTPL are measured at fair value with subsequent changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss.

Financial Liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified into the following measurement categories:

those to be measured at amortised cost;

those to be measured at FVTPL.

Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost

Financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost if they are not held for trading or designated at FVTPL.

Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost are accounted for using the effective interest rate method.

Financial liabilities measured at FVTPL

Financial liabilities are measured at FVTPL if:

they are held for trading whose principal objective is achieved through selling or repurchasing the financial liability in the

near term, or forms part of a portfolio of financial instruments that are managed together and for which there is evidence of

short-term profit taking; or

they are designated at FVTPL upon initial recognition to eliminate or reduce an accounting mismatch.

Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value with subsequent changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss.

Further details of the accounting policy for each category of financial asset or financial liability mentioned above is set out in the

note for the relevant item.

The Group’s policies for determining the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities are set out in Note 21 - Fair value.

Recognition

The Group initially recognises finance receivables and borrowings on the date that they are originated. All other financial assets

and liabilities (including assets and liabilities designated at FVTPL) are initially recognised on the trade date at which the Group

becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

P. 16
1 Financial statements preparation (continued)

Derecognition

The Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the

rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of

ownership of the financial asset are transferred. Any interest in transferred financial assets that is created or retained by the

Group is recognised as a separate asset.

The Group enters into transactions whereby it transfers assets recognised on its consolidated statement of financial position, but

retains either all risks or rewards of the transferred assets or a portion of them. If all or substantially all risks and rewards are

retained, then the transferred assets are not derecognised from the consolidated statement of financial position. Transfers of

assets with the retention of all or substantially all risks and rewards include, for example, securitised assets and repurchase

transactions.

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the obligation is discharged, cancelled or expires. Where an existing financial liability is

replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially

modified, the exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability,

with the difference in the respective carrying amounts recognised in profit or loss.

Offsetting financial instruments

The Group offsets financial assets and financial liabilities and reports the net balance in the balance sheet where there is currently

a legally enforceable right to set off and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability

simultaneously.

3 Net interest income

Policy

Interest income and expense on financial instruments is measured using the effective interest rate method that discounts the

financial instruments' future cash flows to their present value and allocates the interest income or expense over the life of the

financial instrument. The effective interest rate is established on initial recognition of the financial assets or liabilities and is not

subsequently revised. For financial instruments at amortised cost, the calculation of the effective interest rate includes all yield

related fees and commissions paid or received that are an integral part of the underlying financial instrument.

Policy

As a lessor, the Group retains substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the assets and therefore

classifies the leases as operating leases. Rental income and expense from operating leases is recognised on a straight-line basis

over the term of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the

carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Profits on the sale of operating

lease assets are included as part of operating lease income. Current year depreciation and losses on the sale of operating lease

assets are included as part of operating lease expenses. The leased assets are depreciated over their useful lives on a basis

consistent with similar assets.

8 Impaired asset expense

Policy

Impairment of finance receivables

At each reporting date, the Group applies a three stage approach to measuring ECL to finance receivables not carried at fair value.

The ECL model assesses whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition.

The ECL model is a forward looking model where impairment allowances are recognised before losses are actually incurred. On

initial recognition, an impairment allowance is required, based on events that are possible in the next 12 months.

Assets may migrate between the following stages based on their change in credit quality:

Stage 1 - 12 months ECL (past due 30 days or less)

Where there has been no evidence of increased credit risk since initial recognition, and finance receivables are not credit impaired

upon origination, the portion of the lifetime ECL associated with the probability of default events occurring within the next 12

months is recognised.

Stage 2 - Lifetime ECL not credit impaired (greater than 30 but less than 90 days past due)

Where there has been a significant increase in credit risk.

Stage 3 - Lifetime ECL credit impaired (90 days past due or more)

Objective evidence of impairment, so are considered to be in default or otherwise credit impaired.

In determining whether credit risk has increased all available information relevant to the assessment of economic conditions at

the reporting date are taken into consideration. To do this the Group considers its historical loss experience and adjusts this for

current observable data. In addition to this the Group uses reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions

including experienced judgement to estimate the amount of an expected impairment loss. Future economic conditions consider

macroeconomic factors such as unemployment, interest rate, gross domestic product, and inflation, and requires an evaluation of

both the current and forecast direction of the economic cycle. The methodology and assumptions including any forecasts of

future economic conditions are reviewed regularly as incorporating forward-looking information increases the level of judgement

as to how changes in these macroeconomic factors will affect the ECL.

The calculation of expected credit loss is modelled for portfolios of like assets. For portfolios which are either new or too small to

model, judgement is used to determine impairment provisions.

For assets that are individually assessed for ECL, the allowance for ECL is calculated directly as the difference between the

defaulted assets carrying value and the recoverable amount (being the present value of expected future cash flows, including cash

flows from the realisation of collateral or guarantees, where applicable).

The Group’s models for estimating ECL for each of its portfolios are based on the historic credit experience of those portfolios.

The models assume that economic conditions (such as GDP growth, unemployment rates, and house price index forecasts) remain

static over time. If the Group forecasts that economic conditions may change in the foreseeable future, the Group applies

judgement to determine whether the modelled output should be subject to an economic overlay. Judgement is required to

establish clear correlation between key economic indicators and the credit performance of the Group’s unique portfolios.

9 Taxation

Policy

Income tax

Income tax expense for the year comprises current tax and movements in deferred tax balances, including any adjustment

required for prior years' tax expense. Income tax expense is recognised in profit and loss except to the extent that it relates to

items recognised directly in other comprehensive income, in which case it is recognised in equity or other comprehensive income.

Current tax

Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively

enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to the tax payable or receivable in respect of previous years. Current tax for

current and prior years is recognised as a liability (or asset) to the extent that it is unpaid (or refundable).

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet liability method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying

amounts of assets and liabilities for accounting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. As required by NZ IAS 12

Income Taxes, a deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that a future taxable profit will be available

to realise the asset.

Goods and services tax (GST)

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of GST. As the Group is predominantly involved in providing financial services,

only a proportion of GST paid on inputs is recoverable. The non-recoverable proportion of GST is treated as an expense or, if

relevant, as part of the cost of acquisition of an asset.

11 Investments

Policy

Investments are classified into one of the following categories:

Fair value through profit or loss

Investments under this category include equity investments and are measured at fair value plus transaction costs. Changes in fair

value of these investments are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they occur.

Fair value through other comprehensive income

Investments under this category include bank bonds, floating rate notes, local authority stock, public securities, corporate bonds

and equity investments. These are initially measured at fair value, including transaction costs, and subsequently carried at fair

value. Changes in fair value of these investments are recognised in other comprehensive income and presented within the fair

value reserve.

Amortised cost

Investments under this category include bank deposits and are measured using effective interest rate method. They are held to

collect contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

P. 27
12 Derivative financial instruments

Policy

The Group uses derivatives for risk management purposes. Derivatives held for risk management purposes include hedges that

either meet the hedge accounting requirements set out in NZ IAS 39, or economic hedges not placed into an accounting hedge

relationship.

Derivatives are recognised at their fair value, with the derivatives being carried as assets when their fair value is positive and as

liabilities when their fair value is negative.

A hedged item is an asset, liability, firm commitment or highly probable forecast transaction that exposes the Group to risk of

changes in fair value or cash flows, and that is designated as being hedged. The Group applies fair value hedge

accounting to hedge movements in the value of fixed interest rate assets and liabilities subject to interest rate risk. The Group

applies cash flow hedge accounting to hedge the variability in highly probable forecast future cash flows attributable to

interest rate risk on variable rate assets and liabilities.

Fair value hedge accounting

The criteria that must be met for a relationship to qualify for hedge accounting include:

the hedging relationship must be formally designated and documented at inception of the hedge,

effectiveness testing must be carried out on an on-going basis to ensure the hedge is effective and consistent with the

originally documented risk management strategy, and

the instruments or counterparty must be a third party external to the Group.

The Group documents, at the inception of the transaction, the relationship between hedged items and hedging

instruments, as well as its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. The Group

also documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in

hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair value of hedged items.

Subsequent to initial designation, changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify for fair value hedge

accounting are recorded through profit or loss alongside any changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are

attributable to the hedged risk.

Where the hedged item is carried at amortised cost, the movement in fair value of the hedged item attributable to the hedged

risk is made as an adjustment to the carrying value of the hedged asset or liability. When a hedging instrument expires or is sold,

or when a hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the adjustment to carrying amount of a hedged item carried

at amortised cost is amortised to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income on an effective yield basis over the

remaining period to maturity of the hedged item. Where a hedged item carried at amortised cost is derecognised from the

balance sheet, the adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability is immediately transferred to the consolidated

statement of comprehensive income.

Cash flow hedge accounting

The criteria that must be met for a relationship to qualify for hedge accounting include:

the hedging relationship must be formally designated and documented at inception of the hedge,

effectiveness testing must be carried out on an on-going basis to ensure the hedge is effective and consistent with the

originally documented risk management strategy, and

the instruments or counterparty must be a third party external to the Group.

P. 28
12 Derivative financial instruments (continued)

Cash flow hedge accounting (continued)

The Group documents, at the inception of the transaction, the relationship between hedged items and hedging instruments, as

well as its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. The Group also documents its

assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions

are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of hedged items.

A fair value gain or loss associated with the effective portion of a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge is recognised initially

in the hedging reserve. The ineffective portion of a fair value gain or loss is recognised immediately in the consolidated statement

of comprehensive income.

When a hedging derivative expires or is sold, the hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, or the Group elects to

revoke the hedge designation, the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging derivative remains in the cash flow hedging reserve until

the forecast transaction occurs and affects income, at which point it is transferred to the corresponding income or expense line. If

a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging derivative previously reported in

the cash flow hedging reserve is immediately transferred to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

The Group has entered into credit support annexes (CSAs) which form a part of International Swaps and Derivatives

Association (ISDA) Master Agreement, in respect of certain exposures relating to derivative transactions. As per these CSAs, the

Group or the counterparty needs to collateralise the market value of outstanding derivative transactions. As at 30 June 2022, the

Group has received $32.34 million of cash collateral (2021: $4.09 million) against derivative assets. The cash collateral received is

not netted off against the balance of derivative assets disclosed in the consolidated statement of financial position.

The Group actively manages interest rate risk by entering into derivative contracts to hedge against movements in interest rates.

During the year interest rate swaps entered into by the Group could not be designated into a hedging relationship with the

portfolio of financial assets and liabilities held considering their underlying risks could no longer be critically matched against

those of the interest rate swaps. Consequently, hedge accounting could not be established resulting in the recognition of fair

value gains from the interest rate swaps in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

P. 29
13 Finance receivables

(a) Finance receivables held at amortised cost

Policy

Finance receivables are initially recognised at fair value plus incremental direct transaction costs and are subsequently

measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment loss.

Fees and direct costs relating to loan origination, financing and loan commitments are deferred and amortised to interest

income over the life of the loan using the effective interest rate method. Lending fees not directly related to the origination of a

loan are recognised over the period of service.

Past due but not impaired assets are any assets which have not been operated by the counterparty within their key terms but

are not considered to be impaired by the Group.

Individually impaired assets are those loans for which the Group has evidence that it will incur a loss, and will be unable to

collect all principal and interest due according to the contractual terms of the loan.

In determining whether credit risk has increased all available information relevant to the assessment including information

about past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions at the reporting date

are taken into consideration.

The calculation of expected credit loss is modelled for portfolios of like assets. For portfolios which are either new or too small

to model, judgement is used to determine impairment provisions.

Policy

Intangible assets

Intangible assets with finite useful lives

Software acquired or internally developed by the Group is stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and any accumulated

impairment losses. Expenditure on software assets is capitalised only when it increases the future economic value of that asset.

Amortisation of software is on a straight line basis, at rates which will write off the cost over the assets’ estimated useful lives.

The expected useful life of the software has been determined to be ten years.

Goodwill

Goodwill arising on acquisition represents the excess of the cost of the acquisition over the Group’s interest in the fair value of

the identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill that has an indefinite useful life is not subject to amortisation and is tested for

impairment annually. Goodwill is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

Total intangible assets218,87469,165

For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to cash generating units. A Cash Generating Unit (CGU) is the

smallest identifiable group of assets that generate independent cash inflows. Group has assessed that goodwill should be

allocated to the smallest identifiable CGU:

Heartland Australia Holdings Pty Limited: $15.3 million (2021: $15.3 million).

Heartland Bank Limited: $29.8 million (2021: $29.8 million).

StockCo AU Group: $138.1 million (2021: nil).

Goodwill is tested for impairment at a cash generating unit level. The recoverable amounts are determined on a value in use basis

using a five-year discounted cash flow methodology based on financial budget and forecasts. Key assumptions used in the models

included a discount rate of 10-14% and a terminal growth rate of 2% which reflect both past experience and external sources of

information. The recoverable amounts for each CGU are compared to the respective carrying value of net assets.

P. 37

There was no indication of impairment and no impairment losses have been recognised against the carrying amount of goodwill

for the year ended 30 June 2022 (30 June 2021: nil).

Policy

Employee benefits

Annual leave entitlements are accrued at amounts expected to be paid. Long service leave is accrued by calculating the probable

future value of the entitlements and discounting back to present value. Obligations to defined contribution superannuation

schemes are recognised as an expense when the contribution is paid.

Policy

Leases

The Group leases office space, car parks, equipment and cars. Rental contracts are typically made for fixed periods but may have

extension options. Lease terms are negotiated on an individual basis and contain a wide range of different terms and conditions.

In determining the lease term, all facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive to exercise an extension option are

considered. Extension options are only included in the lease term if the lease is reasonably certain to be extended.

Lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments and discounted using the Group's incremental

borrowing rate (IBR). Lease liabilities are measured using the effective interest method. Carrying amounts are remeasured only

upon reassessments and lease modifications.

Right of use assets are depreciated at the shorter of lease term or the Group’s depreciation policy for that asset class.

19 Acquisition

Policy

Business combination

The Group accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method when the acquired set of activities and assets meets

the definition of a business and control is transferred to the Group. In determining whether a particular set of activities and assets

is a business, the Group assesses whether the set of assets and activities consists of inputs and processes applied to those inputs

that have the ability to contribute to the creation of outputs.

The consideration transferred in the acquisition and any contingent consideration to be transferred are generally measured at fair

value, as are the identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill is initially measured at cost (being the excess of the aggregate of the

consideration transferred over the fair value of the net assets acquired) and is tested annually for impairment. Any gain on a

bargain purchase is recognised in profit or loss immediately. If the initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete by

the end of the reporting period in which the combination occurs, the Group reports provisional amounts for the items for which

the accounting is incomplete. Those provisional amounts are adjusted during the measurement period (see paragraph below), or

additional assets or liabilities are recognised, to reflect new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of

the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the amounts recognised as of that date. The measurement period is the

period from the date of acquisition to the date the Group obtains complete information about facts and circumstances that

existed as of the acquisition date, and does not exceed twelve months. Transaction cost related to the acquisition is recognised as

an expense in profit or loss when incurred with the exception of costs to issue debt or equity securities.

On 31 May 2022, the Group acquired 100% of the shares in StockCo Holdings 2 Pty Ltd and StockCo Australia Management Pty Ltd

(collectively StockCo Australia). The Group is assessing the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired, and

determining the related deferred tax effects, in line with the principles for estimating fair value adopted by the Group. Values

were provisionally allocated to identifiable assets and liabilities on completion date, based on information available. They may be

adjusted during the 12 months following that date on the basis of new information obtained relating to the facts and

circumstances prevailing at completion date.

Total consideration in relation to these transactions was AU $155.78 million (NZ $171.58 million), including non-cash

consideration of AU $0.28 million (NZ $0.31 million) and deferred consideration estimated to be AU $1.62 million (NZ $1.78

million) as at 30 June 2022. Provisional goodwill of AU $124.91 million (NZ $137.58 million) has been recognised from the

acquisitions.

Provisional goodwill represents the future economic benefits that the Group expects to derive from the acquisition of StockCo

Australia. It has been allocated to the StockCo Australia business segment.

Transaction costs of $1.1 million have been expensed and are included in the operating expenses in the consolidated statement of

comprehensive income.

From the date of acquisition, StockCo Australia contributed $3.3 million to Interest income and $1.7 million to Net profit before

tax of the Group. If the acquisition had taken place at the beginning of the year, it is estimated that the contribution to the

Group's interest income and net profit before tax would have been $37.6 million and $13.5 million respectively.

During the year, the beneficiaries of SCBS accepted a settlement offer and were paid a final lump sum totalling $1.3 million. This

was supported by an actuarial valuation and approved by the Financial Markets Authority (FMA). The residual balance was

transferred to HBL as the employer, leaving the above balance to cover remaining costs.

The Group has indemnified HBL against a non performing loan which had a balance of $4.3 million as at 30 June 2022 (2021: nil).

P. 42
21 Fair value

Policy

Fair value is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between

market participants at the measurement date.

On initial recognition, the transaction price generally represents the fair value of the financial instrument, unless there is

observable information from an active market that provides a more appropriate fair value.

The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities that are traded in active markets are based on quoted market prices or

dealer price quotations. For all other financial instruments, the Group determines fair value using other valuation techniques.

The Group measures fair values using the following fair value hierarchy, which reflects the observability of the inputs used in

measuring fair value:

Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that

is, as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices).

Level 3 - Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

The Group recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy as at the end of the reporting period during which the

change has occurred.

(a) Financial instruments measured at fair value

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial asset and liability measured

at fair value on a recurring basis in the consolidated statement of financial position.

The Group has an established framework in performing valuations required for financial reporting purposes including Level 3 fair

values. The Group regularly reviews and calibrates significant unobservable inputs and valuation adjustments in accordance with

market participants’ views. If external valuation specialists are engaged to measure fair values, the Group assesses the evidence

obtained from these specialists to support the conclusion of these valuations. All significant valuations are reported to the

Group's Board Audit and Risk Committee for approval prior to its adoption in the financial statements.

Investments

Investments in public sector securities and corporate bonds are stated at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI),

with the fair value being based on quoted market prices (Level 1 under the fair value hierarchy) or modelled using observable

market inputs (Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy).

Investments valued under Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy are valued either based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes for

similar instruments, or discounted cash flows analysis.

P. 43
21 Fair value (continued)

(a) Financial instruments measured at fair value (continued)

Investments (continued)

Investments in equity securities are classified as fair value through profit or loss unless an irrevocable election is made by the

Group to measure at FVOCI. Investment in listed securities traded in liquid, active markets where prices are readily observable are

measured under Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy with no modelling or assumptions used in the valuation. Investments in

unlisted equity securities are measured under Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy with the fair value being based on unobservable

inputs using market accepted valuation techniques. Where appropriate, the Group may apply adjustments to the above-

mentioned techniques to determine fair value of an equity security to reflect the underlying characteristics. These adjustments

are reflective of market participant considerations in valuing the said security.

Equity Investment in Harmoney Corp Limited

Harmoney Corp Limited (Harmoney) listed on the ASX with a foreign exempt listing on the NZX on 19 November 2020, raising AU

$92.5 million as part of its Initial Public Offering (IPO). As part of the IPO, HGH, alongside other major shareholders, employees

and directors, entered into escrow arrangements that restrict the ability to sell its Harmoney shares, with approximately 72% of

total shares were subject to escrow arrangements (Escrow Restrictions) from the time that Harmoney completed its IPO. There

are two categories of escrowed shares: being unaffiliated escrow shareholders and affiliated escrow shareholders. The timing of

release of escrowed shareholdings is dependent on these categories. The escrowed shareholdings for unaffiliated escrow

shareholders have a two staged release with the first 50% of those escrowed shares released in September 2021 and the

remaining 50% released in March 2022. HGH is considered an unaffiliated escrow shareholder for its shareholding recorded at the

time of the IPO. The escrowed shareholdings for affiliated escrow shareholders have a three stage release with the first 25%

released in September 2021, a second 25% released in March 2022 and the remaining 50% of the affiliated escrow shares

(representing 16.3% of the total Harmoney shares on issue) expected to be released at the time or after the release of

Harmoney’s FY22 annual audited financial report.

Previously, the Escrow Restrictions had significantly reduced the available trading pool of shares, resulting in an illiquid market for

the instrument, wide bid-ask spreads and volume that is insufficient to meet the definition of an active market under NZ IFRS 13

Fair Value Measurement for purposes of Harmoney shares traded.

Considering the remaining pool of shares under Escrow Restrictions is no longer substantial as at 30 June 2022, the Group has

measured fair value of the equity investment in Harmoney using the quoted closing price of Harmoney of AU $0.71, which is a

Level 1 input within the fair value hierarchy.

For the prior reporting period, the fair value of HGH’s investment in Harmoney has been measured using a six-month volume

weighted average price (VWAP) of Harmoney shares traded on the ASX. This is considered Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy

as unobservable inputs under a market approach valuation technique were used. This VWAP was evaluated through a composite

valuation weighting the closing price of Harmoney shares as at 30 June 2021, revenue multiples of comparable public companies,

IPO price and analyst valuations. Both the VWAP and composite valuation approaches derived reasonably consistent outcomes.

The fair value measurement of HGH’s equity investment in Harmoney was AU $1.90 per share at 30 June 2021. This was a 26%

premium to the quoted closing price of AU $1.51.

Investment properties

Investment properties are initially recorded at their fair value, with subsequent changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss.

Fair value are determined by qualified independent valuers or other similar external evidence, adjusted for changes in market

conditions.

Investment properties have been acquired through the enforcement of security over finance receivables and are held to earn

rental income or for capital appreciation (or both).

P. 44
21 Fair value (continued)

Finance receivables - reverse mortgages

Reverse mortgage loans are classified at FVTPL. On initial recognition the Group considers the transaction price to represent the

fair value of the loan.

For subsequent measurement the Group has considered if the fair value can be determined by reference to a relevant

active market or observable inputs, but has concluded relevant support is not currently available. In the absence of such market

evidence the Group has used valuation techniques (income approach) including actuarial assessments to consider the fair value.

When the Group enters into a reverse mortgage loan the Group has set expectations regarding the loan’s current and future risk

profile and expectation of performance. This expectation references a wide range of assumptions including:

mortality and potential move into care;

voluntary exits;

house price changes;

no negative equity guarantee; and

interest rate margin.

At balance date the Group does not consider any of the above expectations to have moved outside of the original expectation

range. Therefore, the Group has continued to estimate the fair value of the portfolio at transaction price. There has been no fair

value movement recognised in profit or loss during the period (2021: nil). Fair value is not highly sensitive to the above

assumptions due to the nature of reverse mortgage loans. In particular, given conservative origination loan-to-value ratio criteria,

a material deterioration in house prices combined with a material increase in interest rates over a sustained period of time would

likely need to occur before any potential impact to fair value.

The Group will continue to reassess the existence of a relevant active market and movements in expectations on an on-going

basis.

Derivative financial instruments

Interest rate and foreign currency related contracts are recognised in the financial statements at fair value. Fair values are

determined from observable market prices as at the reporting date, discounted cash flow models or option pricing models as

appropriate (Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy).

(b) Financial instruments not measured at fair value

The following assets and liabilities of the Group are not measured at fair value in the consolidated statement of financial position.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are measured at amortised cost and their carrying value is considered equivalent to their fair value due

to their short term nature.

Finance receivables

The fair value of the Group's finance receivables is calculated using a valuation technique which assumes the Group's current

weighted average lending rates for loans of a similar nature and term.

The current weighted average lending rate used to fair value finance receivables with a fixed interest rate was 7.77% (2021:

7.08%). Finance receivables with a floating interest rate are deemed to be at current market rates. The current amount of credit

provisioning has been deducted from the fair value calculation of finance receivables as a proxy for future losses.

P. 47
21 Fair value (continued)

(b) Financial instruments not measured at fair value (continued)

Borrowings

The fair value of deposits, bank borrowings and other borrowings is the present value of future cash flows and is based on the

current market interest rates payable by the Group for debt of similar maturities. The average current market rate used to fair

value borrowings was 3.57% (2021: 1.23%).

Other financial assets and financial liabilities

The fair value of financial instruments such as short-term trade receivables and payables is considered equivalent to their carrying

value due to their short-term nature.

Risk Management

22 Enterprise risk management program

The board of directors (the Board) sets and monitors the Group’s risk appetite across the primary risk domains of credit, capital,

liquidity, market (including interest rate), operational and compliance and general business risk. Management are, in turn,

responsible for ensuring appropriate structures, policies, procedures and information systems are in place to actively manage

these risk domains, as outlined within the Enterprise Risk Management Framework (ERMF). Collectively, these processes are

known as the Group's Enterprise Risk Management Program (RMP).

Role of the Board and the Board Audit Risk Committee

The Board, through its Board Audit and Risk Committee (BARC) is responsible for oversight and governance of the development of

the RMP. The role of the BARC includes assisting the Board to formulate its risk appetite, and monitoring the effectiveness of the

RMP. BARC’s responsibilities also include:

Financial reporting and application of accounting policies as part of the internal control and risk assessment framework.

Monitors the identification, evaluation and management of all significant risks through the Group. This work is supported by

internal audit, which provides an independent assessment of the design, adequacy and effectiveness of internal controls. The

BARC receives regular reports from internal audit.

To advise the Board on the formulation of the Board's Risk Appetite Statement.

To review any reports, policies, standards, other risk documents or matters, or minutes which have been prepared by or in

respect of the HGH's Board.

To monitor material, emerging and strategic risks for the Group and its subsidiaries.

Internal Audit

The Group has an Internal Audit function, the objective of which is to provide independent, objective assurance over the internal

control environment. In certain circumstances, Internal Audit will provide risk and control advice to Management provided the

work does not impede the independence of the Internal Audit function. The function assists the Group in accomplishing its

objectives by bringing a systematic and disciplined approach to evaluate and improve the effectiveness of risk management,

control, and governance processes.

Internal Audit is allowed full, free and unfettered access to any and all of the organisation’s records, personnel and physical

properties deemed necessary to accomplish its activities.

P. 50
22 Enterprise risk management program (continued)

Internal Audit (continued)

A regular cycle of review has been implemented to cover all areas of the business, focused on assessment, management and

control of risks identified. The audit plan takes into account cyclical review of various business units and operational areas, as

well as identified areas of higher identified risk. The audit methodology is designed to meet the International Standards for the

Professional Practice of Internal Auditing of The Institute of Internal Auditors.

Each audit has specific audit procedures tailored to the area of business that is being reviewed. The audit procedures are updated

during each audit to reflect any process changes. Audit work papers are completed to evidence the testing performed in

accordance with the audit procedures.

Audit reports are addressed to the manager of the relevant area that is being audited in addition to other relevant stakeholders

within the Group. Management comments are obtained from the process owner(s) and are included in the report.

The Head of Internal Audit has a direct reporting line to the Chair of the BARC. Internal audit has accountability to the BARC of the

Group. A schedule of all outstanding internal control issues is maintained and presented to the BARC to assist and track the

resolution of previously identified issues. Any issues raised that are categorised as high risk are specifically reviewed by internal

audit during a follow up review once the issue is considered closed by management. The follow up review is performed with a

view to formally close out the issue.

Asset and Liability Committee (ALCO)

The ALCO comprises the CEO HBL, CFO, CRO, Head of Retail, Financial Controller HBL and Chief Distribution Officer. The ALCO

generally meets monthly, and provides reports to the BARC. ALCO's specific responsibilities include decision making and oversight

of risk matters in relation to:

Market risk (including non-traded interest rate risk and the investment of capital).

Liquidity risk (including funding).

Foreign exchange rate risk.

Balance sheet structure.

Capital management.

Operational and compliance risk

Operational and compliance risk is the risk arising from day to day operational activities in the execution of the Group's strategy

which may result in direct or indirect loss. Operational and compliance risk losses can occur as a result of fraud, human error,

missing or inadequately designed processes, failed systems, damage to physical assets, improper behaviour or from external

events. The losses range from direct financial losses, to reputational damage, unfavourable media attention, injury to or loss of

staff or clients or as a breach of laws or banking regulations. Where appropriate, risks are mitigated by insurance.

To ensure appropriate responsibility is allocated for the management, reporting and escalation of operational and compliance

risk, the Group operates a “three lines of defence” model which outlines principles for the roles, responsibilities and

accountabilities for operational and compliance risk management:

P. 51
22 Enterprise risk management program (continued)

Operational and compliance risk (continued)

The first line of defence is the business line management of the identification, management and mitigation of the risks

associated with the products and processes of the business. This accountability includes regular testing and attestation of the

adequacy and effectiveness of controls and compliance with the Group's policies.

The second line of defence is the Risk and Compliance function, responsible for the design and ownership of the Operational

Risk Management Framework. It incorporates key processes including Risk and Control Self-Assessment (RCSA), incident

management, independent evaluation of the adequacy and effectiveness of the internal control framework, and the

attestation process.

The third line of defence is Internal Audit which is responsible for independently assessing how effectively the Group is

managing its risk according to its stated risk appetite.

Market risk

Market risk is the possibility of experiencing losses or gains due to factors affecting the overall performance of financial markets

in which the Group is exposed. The primary market risk exposures for the Group are interest rate risk and foreign exchange risk.

The risk being that market interest rates or foreign exchange rates will change and adversely impact on the Group’s earnings due

to either adverse moves in foreign exchange market rates or in the case of interest rate risks mismatches between repricing dates

of interest bearing assets and liabilities and/or differences between customer pricing and wholesale rates.

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk refers to exposure of an entity’s earnings and / or capital because of a mismatch between the interest rate

exposures of its assets and liabilities. Interest rate risk for the Group arises from the provision of non-traded retail banking

products and services and from traded wholesale transactions entered into to reduce aggregate interest rate risk (known as

hedges). This risk arises from four key sources:

Mismatches between the repricing dates of interest bearing assets and liabilities (yield curve and repricing risk);

Banking products repricing differently to changes in wholesale market rates (basis risk);

Loan prepayment or deposit early withdrawal behaviour from customers that deviates from the expected or contractually

agreed behaviour (optionality risk); and

The effect of internal or market forces on a bank’s net interest margin where, for example, in a low rate environment any fall

in rates will further decrease interest income earned on the assets whereas funding cost cannot be reduced as it is already at

the minimum level (margin compression risk).

Refer to Note 25 - Interest rate risk for further details regarding interest rate risk.

P. 52
22 Enterprise risk management program (continued)

Foreign exchange risk

Foreign exchange risk is the risk that the Group’s earnings and shareholder equity position are adversely impacted from changes

in foreign exchange rates. The Group has exposure to foreign exchange translation risks through its Australian subsidiaries (which

have a functional currency of Australian dollars (AUD)), in the forms of profit translation risk and balance sheet translation risk.

Profit translation risk is the risk that deviations in exchange rates have a significant impact on the reported profit. Balance sheet

translation risk is the risk that whilst the foreign currency value of the net investment in a subsidiary may not have changed, when

translated back to the New Zealand dollars (NZD), the NZD value has changed materially due to movements in the exchange rates.

Foreign exchange revaluation gains and losses are booked to the foreign currency translation reserve. Foreign exchange rate

movements in any given year may have an impact on other comprehensive income. The Group manages this risk by setting and

approving the foreign exchange rate for the upcoming financial year and entering into hedging contracts to manage the foreign

exchange translation risks.

Counterparty Credit Risk

The Group has on-going credit exposure associated with:

Cash and cash equivalents;

Finance receivables;

Holding of investment securities; and

Payments owed to the Group from risk management instruments.

Counterparty credit risk is managed against limits set in the Market Risk Policy including credit exposure on derivative contracts,

bilateral set-off arrangements, cash and cash equivalents and investment securities.

P. 53
23 Credit risk exposure

Credit risk is the risk that a borrower will default on any type of debt by failing to make payments which it is obligated to make.

The risk is primarily that of the lender and includes loss of principal and interest, disruption to cash flows and increased collection

costs.

Credit risk is managed to achieve sustainable risk-reward performance whilst maintaining exposures within acceptable risk

“appetite” parameters. This is achieved through the combination of governance, policies, systems and controls, underpinned by

commercial judgement as described below.

To manage this risk the HBL’s Executive Risk Committee (ERC) oversees the formal credit risk management strategy. The ERC

reviews the Group's credit risk exposures typically on a monthly basis. The credit risk management strategies aim to ensure that:

Credit origination meets agreed levels of credit quality at point of approval;

Sector concentrations are monitored;

Maximum total exposure to any one debtor is actively managed;

Changes to credit risk are actively monitored with regular credit reviews.

The BARC also oversees the Group's credit risk exposures to monitor overall risk metrics having regard to risk appetite set by the

Board.

HBL's Board Risk Committee (BRC) has authority for approval of all credit exposures. Lending authority has been provided to the

HBL's Credit Committee, and to the business units under a detailed Delegated Lending Authority framework. Application of credit

discretions in the business operation are monitored through a defined review and hindsight structure as outlined in the Credit

Risk Oversight Policy. Delegated Lending Authorities are provided to individual officers with due cognisance of their experience

and ability. Larger and higher risk exposures require approval of senior management, the Credit Committee and ultimately

through to HBL's BRC.

The Group employs a credit risk oversight process of hindsighting loans to ensure that credit policies and the quality of credit

processes are maintained.

Reverse mortgage loans and negative equity risk

Reverse mortgage loans are a form of mortgage lending designed for the needs of people over 60 years of age. These loans differ

to conventional mortgages in that they typically are not repaid until the borrower ceases to reside in the property. Further,

interest is not required to be paid, it is capitalised into the loan balance and is repayable on termination of the loan. As such,

there are no incoming cash flows and therefore no default risk to manage during the term of the loan. Negative equity risk arises

from the promise by the Group that the maximum repayment amount is limited to the net sale proceeds of the borrowers'

property.

The Group’s exposure to negative equity risk is managed by the Credit Risk Oversight Policy in conjunction with associated lending

standards specific for this product. In addition to usual criteria regarding the type, and location, of security property that the

Group will accept for reverse mortgage lending, a key aspect of the Group's policy is that a borrower’s age on origination of the

reverse mortgage loan will dictate the loan-to-value ratio of the reserve mortgage on origination. Both New Zealand and Australia

reverse mortgage operations are similarly aligned. The policy is managed and reviewed periodically to ensure appropriate

consistency across locations.

Business Finance Guarantee Scheme (BFGS)

HBL, along with other registered banks in New Zealand, has entered into a Deed of Indemnity with the New Zealand

Government to implement the New Zealand Government's Business Finance Guarantee Scheme. The purpose of the scheme is to

provide short term credit to eligible small and medium size businesses, who have been impacted by the economic effects of

COVID-19. The scheme allows banks to lend to a maximum of $5 million for a maximum of five years. The New Zealand

Government will guarantee 80% of any loss incurred (credit risk) with HBL holding the remaining 20%. As at 30 June 2022 the

Group had a total exposure of $64.8 million (2021: $64.3 million) to its customers under the scheme. BFGS has concluded on 30

June 2021 with scheme loans no longer being available.

Credit risk grading

The Group's finance receivables are monitored either by account behaviour (Behavioural portfolio) or a regular assessment of

their credit risk grade based on an objective review of defined risk characteristics (Judgemental portfolio).

Finance receivables - reverse mortgages have no arrears characteristics and are assessed on origination against a pre-determined

criteria.

The Judgemental portfolio consists mainly of business and rural lending where an on-going and detailed working relationship with

the customer has been developed while the Behavioural portfolio consists of consumer, retail and smaller business receivables.

Judgemental loans are individually risk graded based on loan status, financial information, security and debt servicing ability.

Exposures in the Judgemental portfolio are credit risk graded by an internal risk grading mechanism where grade 1 is the

strongest risk. Grade 8 and grade 9 are the weakest risk grades where a loss is probable. Behavioural loans are managed based on

their arrears status.

Upon adoption of NZ IFRS 9 all loans past due but not impaired have been categorised into three impairments stages (see Note 8)

which are in most cases based on arrears status. If a Judgemental loan is risk graded 6 or above it will be classified as stage 2 as a

minimum and carry a provision based on lifetime ECL.

24 Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group is unable to meet its payment obligations as they fall due. The timing mismatch of cash

flows and the related liquidity risk in all banking operations and is closely monitored by the Group.

Measurement of liquidity risk is designed to ensure that the Group has the ability to generate or obtain sufficient cash in a timely

manner and at a reasonable price to meet its financial commitments on a daily basis.

The Group’s exposure to liquidity risk is governed by a policy approved by the Board and managed by the Asset and Liability

Committee (ALCO). This policy sets out the nature of the risk which may be taken and aggregate risk limits, which ALCO must

observe. Within this, the objective of the ALCO is to derive the most appropriate strategy for the Group in terms of a mix of assets

and liabilities given its expectations of future cash flows, liquidity constraints and capital adequacy. The ALCO employs asset and

liability cash flow modelling to determine appropriate liquidity and funding strategies.

Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) facilities

In March 2020, HBL was onboarded by the RBNZ as an approved counterparty and executed a 2011 Global Master Repo

Agreement providing an additional source for intra-day liquidity for the Group if required.

From 26 May 2020, the RBNZ made available a Term Lending Facility (TLF) to offer loans for a fixed term of three years at the

Official Cash Rate, with access to the funds linked to banks’ lending under the Business Finance Guarantee Scheme. On 25 May

2021, RBNZ announced to close TLF applications on 28 July 2021.

Additional stimulus provided through a Funding for Lending Programme also commenced in December 2020 designed to enable

banks to provide low-cost lending to the customer.

The Group had not utilised any of these facilities as at 30 June 2022 (2021: nil).

The Group holds the following liquid assets and committed funding sources for the purpose of managing liquidity risk:

Contractual liquidity profile of financial liabilities

The following tables present the Group's financial liabilities by relevant maturity groupings based upon contractual maturity date.

The amounts disclosed in the tables represent undiscounted future principal and interest cash flows. As a result, the amounts in

the tables below may differ to the amounts reported on the consolidated statement of financial position.

The contractual cash flows presented below may differ significantly from actual cash flows. This occurs as a result of future

actions by the Group and its counterparties, such as early repayments or refinancing of term loans and borrowings. Deposits and

other public borrowings include customer savings deposits and transactional accounts, which are at call. These accounts provide a

stable source of long term funding for the Group.

25 Interest rate risk

The Group's market risk is derived primarily of exposure to interest rate risk, predominantly from raising funds through

the retail and wholesale deposit market, the debt capital markets and committed and uncommitted bank funding, securitisation

of receivables, and offering loan finance products to the commercial and consumer market in New Zealand and Australia.

The Group’s exposure to market risk is governed by a policy approved by the Board and managed by the ALCO. This

policy sets out the nature of risk which may be taken and aggregate risk limits, and the ALCO must conform to this. The objective

of the ALCO is to derive the most appropriate strategy for the Group in terms of the mix of assets and liabilities given its

expectations of the future and the potential consequences of interest rate movements, liquidity constraints and capital

adequacy.

The objective of the Group’s interest rate risk policies is to limit underlying net profit after tax (NPAT) volatility. The

measurement comprises net interest income the Group generates from its interest earning assets and interest bearing

liabilities.

The exposure to net interest income comes from a reduction in margins on interest earning assets or interest bearing liabilities

and is managed when setting rates by taking into consideration wholesale rates, liquidity premiums, as well as appropriate

lending credit margins.

An analysis of the Group’s sensitivity to an increase (+) or decrease (-) in market interest rates by 100 basis points (BP) is

as follows. An (+)/(-) to market interest rates of 100 BP would result in a $0.67 million (+)/(-) to NPAT (2021: $0.45 million (+)/(-))

with a corresponding impact to equity.

The Group also manages interest rate risk by:

Monitoring maturity profiles and seeking to match the re-pricing of assets and liabilities;

Monitoring interest rates daily and regularly (at least monthly) reviewing interest rate exposures; and

Entering into derivatives to hedge against movements in interest rates.

A structured entity is one which has been designed such that voting or similar rights are not the dominant factor in deciding who

controls the entity. Structured entities are created to accomplish a narrow and well-defined objective such as the securitisation or

holding of particular assets, or the execution of a specific borrowing or lending transaction. Structured entities are consolidated

where the substance of the relationship is that the Group controls the structured entity.

28 Staff share ownership arrangements

The Group operates a number of share-based compensation plans that are equity settled. The fair value determined at the grant

date is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, based on the Group’s estimate of equity instruments that will

eventually vest, with a corresponding increase in equity. At the end of each reporting period the Group revises its estimate of the

number of equity instruments expected to vest. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognised in profit

or loss such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to the employee benefits

reserve.

(a) Share-based compensation plan details

Heartland performance rights plan (PR plan)

The PR plan was established to enhance the alignment of participants' interests with those of the Group’s shareholders. Under

the PR plan participants are issued performance rights which will entitle them to receive shares in the Group. As at June 2022,

there were 6 tranches being 2017, 2018, 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025. All tranches are subject to the existing rules of the PR plan.

PR Plan 2017 Tranche and PR Plan 2018 Tranche (collectively the Legacy Tranches)

The rules for the Legacy Tranches have been aligned with PR plan 2022 Tranche and therefore have the same terms and

conditions applying regarding participants, awarding of performance rights, measurement date and vesting as outlined below:

PR Plan 2022 Tranche (PR plan 2022)

The number of performance rights offered is determined by the participant’s long-term incentive (LTI) value over the volume

weighted average price (VWAP) of the Group's ordinary shares on the NZX Main Board for the 20 business days immediately

before (and excluding) the issue date. The issue date is 14 September 2019. Performance rights do not entitle participants to

dividends or voting rights.

The performance rights are issued subject to the participants’ continued employment with the Group until the measurement date

and the Group achieving its financial measures, strategic objectives and culture and conduct objectives, over the period

commencing 1 July 2019 and ending on 30 June 2022. The targets are dynamic and may be adjusted by the Board from time to

time in order to account for unanticipated capital changes during the performance period. The measurement date is the business

day following the date on which the Group announces its full year results for the financial year ended 2022.

Performance rights will vest on the measurement date to the extent these criteria have been met, but subject to caps and also to

retesting on a later measurement date if the criteria are not met on the initial measurement date.

PR Plan 2023 Tranche (PR plan 2023)

PR plan 2023 was issued for period commencing 1 July 2020 and ending on 30 June 2023. The tranche rules have been aligned

with PR plan 2022. The measurement date for this tranche is the business day after the Group announces its full year results for

the financial year ended 30 June 2023.

Insurance business

Marac Insurance Limited (MIL), a subsidiary of HBL, no longer conducts insurance business as HBL entered into a distribution

agreement with DPL Insurance Limited (DPL) to distribute DPL’s insurance products through HBL's network. MIL ceased writing

insurance policies in 2020 with the periodic policies expected to expire in 2025.

The Group's aggregate amount of insurance business comprises the total consolidated assets of MIL of $7.4 million (2021: $8.5

million), which represents 0.11% of the total consolidated assets of the Group (2021: 0.15%).

Securitisation, funds management and other fiduciary activities

Changes to the Group’s involvement in securitisation activities are set out in Note 27 Structured entities. There have been no

material changes to the Group’s involvement in funds management and other fiduciary activities during the year.

Independent Auditor’s Report

To the shareholders of Heartland Group Holdings Limited

Report on the audit of the consolidated financial statements

Opinion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements

of Heartland Group Holdings Limited and its

subsidiaries (the “Group”) on pages 7 to 67 present

fairly in all material respects the Group’s financial

position as at 30 June 2022 and its financial

performance and cash flows for the year ended on

that date in accordance with New Zealand

Equivalents to International Financial Reporting

Standards and International Financial Reporting

Standards.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated

financial statements which comprise:

— the consolidated statement of financial position

as at 30 June 2022;

— the consolidated statements of comprehensive

income, changes in equity and cash flows for the

year then ended; and

— notes, including a summary of significant

accounting policies.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand) (“ISAs (NZ)”). We

believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

We are independent of the Group in accordance with Professional and Ethical Standard 1 International Code of

Ethics for Assurance Practitioners (Including International Independence Standards) (New Zealand) issued by the

New Zealand Auditing and Assurance Standards Board and the International Ethics Standards Board for

Accountants’ International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence

Standards) (the “IESBA Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these

requirements and the IESBA Code.

Our responsibilities under ISAs (NZ) are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the

consolidated financial statements section of our report.

Our firm has also provided other services to the Group in relation to the review of the Group’s consolidated interim

financial statements, regulatory assurance services, agreed upon procedure engagements and supervisor

reporting. Subject to certain restrictions, partners and employees of our firm may also deal with the Group on

normal terms within the ordinary course of trading activities of the business of the Group. These matters have not

impaired our independence as auditor of the Group. The firm has no other relationship with, or interest in, the

Group.

Materiality

The scope of our audit was influenced by our application of materiality. Materiality helped us to determine the

nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures and to evaluate the effect of misstatements, both individually and

on the consolidated financial statements as a whole. The materiality for the consolidated financial statements as a

whole was set at $6,540,000 determined with reference to a benchmark of the Group’s profit before tax. We

chose the benchmark because, in our view, this is a key measure of the Group’s performance.

We agreed with the Board Audit and Risk Committee that we would report to them, misstatements identified

during our audit above $320,000 as well as misstatements below that amount that, in our view, warranted

reporting for qualitative reasons.






69


Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of

the consolidated financial statements in the current period. We summarise below those matters and our key audit

procedures to address those matters in order that the shareholders as a body may better understand the process

by which we arrived at our audit opinion. Our procedures were undertaken in the context of and solely for the

purpose of our statutory audit opinion on the consolidated financial statements as a whole and we do not express

discrete opinions on separate elements of the consolidated financial statements

The key audit matter How the matter was addressed in our audit

Provision for impairment of finance receivables

Refer to notes 1, 13 and 23 to the consolidated financial statements.


The provision for impairment of finance

receivables is a key audit matter due to the

financial significance and the inherent

complexity of the Group’s expected credit loss

(“ECL”) models.

Significant judgement and estimates are

required to incorporate forward-looking

information to reflect future economic

conditions.

The collective provision is estimated through

the ECL models using historical data which is

adjusted for forward looking information and

the assigned risk grade or arrears status.

Additionally, management apply judgement in

the determination of provision overlays to

adjust for future market conditions.

The level of judgement involved in

determining the provision for collectively

impaired assets requires us to challenge the

appropriateness of management’s

assumptions.

The provision for individually impaired assets is

based on the application of management

judgement regarding expected future

cashflows, which are inherently uncertain.

Our procedures, amongst others, included:

 Assessing the Group’s governance and oversight, including the

continuous reassessment of overall provisioning;

 Assessing the Group’s significant accounting policies and

expected credit loss (“ECL”) modelling methodology against the

requirements of the standards and underlying accounting

records;

 Testing key controls including the arrears calculations, customer

loan ratings, annual loan reviews, credit risk reviews and data

reconciliations between the ECL models and source systems;

 Assessing the model output against actual losses incurred by the

Group;

 Challenging the key assumptions, including forward looking

economic assumptions, against external information including

benchmarking management’s estimates to a range of

observable

industry data and market forecasts;

 Evaluating individual credit assessments for a sample of ‘rural’

and other ‘corporate’ loans on management’s credit watchlist.

This included inspection of the latest correspondence with the

borrower, assessment of the provision estimates prepared by

credit risk officers, and consideration of the resolution strategy.

We challenged assumptions and assessed collateral values by

comparing them to valuations performed by independent valuers;

and

 Assessing the disclosures in the consolidated financial

statements against the requirements of NZ IFRS.

From the procedures performed we consider the Group appropriately

identified and considered the uncertainties in the provision estimates.






70


The key audit matter How the matter was addressed in our audit

Valuation of finance receivables – reverse mortgages

Refer to note 21 of the consolidated financial statements.

The Group’s reverse mortgage portfolio is held

at fair value.

The fair value calculation is based on the

application of management judgement. In

assessing the fair value, the Group

continuously considers evidence of a relevant

active market. In the absence of such a

market, in the current period, the Group

considered changes since loan origination and

expected future cashflows.

The inherent uncertainties include estimated

exits, interest rates and security property

values.


Our procedures over the fair value loan portfolios, amongst others,

included:

 Testing key controls over the accuracy of data impacting the fair

value assessment;

 Assessing evidence of a relevant active market or observable

inputs; and

 Challenging the key assumptions used by the Group in

determining the portfolio’s fair value.

The estimates and assumptions used to determine the valuation of

finance receivables are reasonable, with no evidence of management

bias or influence identified from our procedures.


Operation of IT systems and controls

The Group is reliant on complex IT systems for

the processing and recording of significant

volumes of transactions and other core

banking activity.

For significant financial statement balances,

such as finance receivables and deposits,

where relevant, our audit involves an

assessment of the design of the Group’s

internal control environment. There are some

areas of the audit where we seek to test and

place reliance on IT systems, automated

controls and reporting.

The effective operation of these controls is

dependent upon the Group’s general IT control

environment, which incorporates controls

relevant to IT system changes and

development, IT operations, and developer

and user access.


Our audit procedures, amongst others, included:

 Gaining an understanding of business processes, key controls

and IT systems relevant to significant financial statement

balances, including technology services provided by a third party;


 Assessing the effectiveness of the IT control environment,

including core banking IT systems, key automated controls and

reporting; and

 Evaluating general IT controls relevant to IT system changes and

development, IT operations, and developer and user access.

Where we noted design or operating effectiveness matters relating to

IT system or application controls relevant to our audit, we performed

alternative audit procedures. We also identified and tested mitigating

controls in order to respond to the impact on our overall audit

approach.

We did not identify any material issues or exceptions from those

additional procedures.



Other information

The Directors, on behalf of the Group, are responsible for the other information included in the entity’s Annual

Report. Other information may include the Chairman’s Report, Chief Executive Officer’s Report and disclosures

relating to corporate governance. Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover any other

information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

The Annual Report is expected to be made available to us after the date of this Independent Auditor's Report. Our

responsibility is to read the Annual Report when it becomes available and consider whether the other information it

contains is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements, or our knowledge obtained in the

audit, or otherwise appear misstated. If so, we are required to report such matters to the Directors.






71


Use of this independent auditor’s report

This independent auditor’s report is made solely to the shareholders as a body. Our audit work has been

undertaken so that we might state to the shareholders those matters we are required to state to them in the

independent auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or

assume responsibility to anyone other than the shareholders as a body for our audit work, this independent

auditor’s report, or any of the opinions we have formed.

Responsibilities of the Directors for the consolidated financial

statements

The Directors, on behalf of the Group, are responsible for:

— the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally

accepted accounting practice in New Zealand (being New Zealand Equivalents to International Financial

Reporting Standards) and International Financial Reporting Standards;

— implementing necessary internal control to enable the preparation of a consolidated set of financial statements

that is fairly presented and free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; and

— assessing the ability to continue as a going concern. This includes disclosing, as applicable, matters related to

going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless they either intend to liquidate or to

cease operations or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial

statements

Our objective is:

— to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from

material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; and

— to issue an independent auditor’s report that includes our opinion.

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance

with ISAs NZ will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.

Misstatements can arise from fraud or error. They are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they

could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these

consolidated financial statements.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of these consolidated financial statements is located at the

External Reporting Board (XRB) website at:

http://www.xrb.govt.nz/standards-for-assurance-practitioners/auditors-responsibilities/audit-report-1/


This description forms part of our independent auditor’s report.

The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor's report is Graeme Edwards.

Notes to the Financial Statements

For the year ended 30 June 2022

1 Financial statements preparation

Reporting entity

The financial statements presented are the consolidated financial statements comprising HBL and the Banking Group. Refer Note

26 – Significant subsidiaries for further details.

As at 30 June 2022, the Bank is a company incorporated in New Zealand under the Companies Act 1993, a registered bank under

the Reserve Bank of New Zealand Act 1989 and a Financial Market Conduct (FMC) reporting entity for the purposes of the

Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013.

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Practice in New Zealand ( NZ

GAAP) and with the requirements of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013. The financial statements comply with New Zealand

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

appropriate for profit-oriented entities, and the Registered Bank Disclosure Statement (New Zealand Incorporated Registered

Banks) Order 2014 (as amended) (the Order). The financial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting

Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

The financial statements are presented in New Zealand dollars which is the Banking Group's functional and presentation currency.

Unless otherwise indicated, amounts are rounded to the nearest thousand dollars.

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis after considering the Banking Group's funding and liquidity

position.

The accounting policies adopted have been applied consistently throughout the periods presented in these financial statements.

Certain comparative balances have been reclassified to align with the presentation used in the current financial year. These

reclassifications have no impact on the overall financial performance or financial position for the comparative year.

Basis of measurement

The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost, except for certain financial instruments and

investment properties, which are measured at their fair values as identified in the accounting policies set out in the accompanying

notes to the financial statements.

Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements of the Banking Group incorporate the assets, liabilities and results of all controlled entities.

Controlled entities are all entities in which the Bank is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the

entities and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entities. Intercompany transactions, balances and

any unrealised income and expense (except for foreign currency transaction gains or losses) between controlled entities are

eliminated.

Assets and liabilities in a transactional currency that is not the New Zealand dollar, are translated at the exchange rates ruling at

balance date. Revenue and expense items are translated at the average rate at the balance date. Exchange differences are taken

to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

P. 13
1 Financial statements preparation (continued)

Changes in accounting standards

Accounting standards issued and effective

There have been no changes to accounting policies or new or amended standards that are issued and effective that are expected

to have a material impact on the Banking Group.

Accounting standards issued not yet effective

The final version of NZ IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts was issued in August 2017 and is applicable to general and life insurance

contracts. The standard will be effective for the Banking Group’s reporting for the financial year ending 30 June 2024, including 30

June 2023 comparatives.

MARAC Insurance Limited (MIL), a subsidiary of HBL, ceased writing insurance policies in 2020 with the periodic policies expected

to expire in 2025.

Other amendments to existing standards that are not yet effective are not expected to have a material impact on the Banking

Group.

Estimates and judgements

The preparation of the Banking Group’s consolidated financial statements requires the use of estimates and judgements. This

note provides an overview of the areas that involve a higher degree of judgement or complexity. Detailed information about each

of these estimates and judgements is included in the relevant notes together with the basis of calculation for each affected item

in the financial statements.

Provisions for impairment - The effect of credit risk is quantified based on the Banking Group's best estimate of future cash

repayments and proceeds from any security held or by reference to risk profile groupings, historical loss data and forward-

looking information. Refer to Note 8 - Impaired asset expense, and Note 12 - Finance receivables for further details.

Fair value of reverse mortgages - Fair value is quantified by the transaction price and the Banking Group’s subsequent best

estimate of the risk profile of the reverse mortgage portfolio. Refer to Note 19 - Fair value for further details.

Goodwill - Determining the fair value of assets and liabilities of acquired businesses requires the Banking Group to exercise

judgement. The carrying value of goodwill is tested annually for impairment, refer to Note 17 - Other balance sheet items.

Assumptions made at each reporting date (e.g. the calculation of the provision for impairment and fair value adjustments) are

based on best estimates as at that date. Although the Banking Group has internal controls in place to ensure that estimates can

be reliably measured, actual amounts may differ from these estimates. The estimates and judgements used in the preparation of

the Banking Group’s financial statements are continually evaluated. They are based on historical experience and other factors,

including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the entity. Revisions to accounting estimates are

recognised in the reporting period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

COVID-19 Pandemic - Impact on Estimates and Judgements

The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in the Banking Group adopting an economic overlay for expected credit losses (ECL) to its

portfolios as at 30 June 2020 of pre-tax $9.6 million in response to the uncertain but potential economic impact of COVID-19 on

HBL's borrowers (COVID Overlay). The COVID Overlay was sized based on a range of techniques including stress testing,

benchmarking, scenario analysis and expert judgement.

Whilst economic uncertainty remains, credit risk factors arising from the impact of COVID-19 are now apparent. Consequently the

COVID Overlay has been released in full and it has been considered appropriate to create an economic overlay of $8.0 million as

at 30 June 2022, resulting in a net $1.6 million release to profit or loss.

P. 14
1 Financial statements preparation (continued)

COVID-19 Pandemic - Impact on Estimates and Judgements (continued)

The accounting judgement that is most impacted by the economic overlay is the ECL on finance receivables at amortised cost. The

Banking Group measures the allowance for ECL using an impairment model in compliance with NZ IFRS 9 Financial Instruments.

Financial assets and liabilities

Financial Assets

Financial assets are classified based on:

The business model within which the assets are managed; and

Whether the contractual cash flows of the instrument represent solely payment of principal and interest (SPPI).

The Banking Group determines the business model at the level that reflects how groups of financial assets are managed. When

assessing the business model, the Banking Group considers factors including how performance and risks are managed, evaluated

and reported and the frequency and volume of, and reason for sales in previous periods.

Financial assets are classified into the following measurement categories:

Financial Assets Measurement Category Note

Bank bonds and floating rate notesFair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI)10

Public sector securities and corporate bondsFVOCI10

Local authority stockFVOCI10

Equity investmentsFair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) and FVOCI10

Finance receivables – reverse mortgagesFVTPL12

Finance receivablesAmortised cost12

Financial assets measured at amortised cost

Financial assets are measured at amortised cost if they are held within a business model whose objective is achieved through

holding the financial asset to collect contractual cash flows which represent SPPI.

Financial assets at amortised cost are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the

effective interest rate method.

Financial assets measured at FVOCI

Financial assets are measured at FVOCI if they are held within a business model whose objective is achieved both through

collecting contractual cash flows which represent SPPI or selling the financial asset.

Financial assets at FVOCI are measured at fair value with unrealised gains and losses recognised in other comprehensive income

except for interest income, impairment charges and foreign exchange gains and losses, which are recognised in profit or loss.

P. 15
1 Financial statements preparation (continued)

Financial assets and liabilities (continued)

Financial Assets (continued)

Financial assets measured at FVTPL

Financial assets are measured at FVTPL if:

They are held within a business model whose objective is achieved through selling or repurchasing the financial asset in the

near term, or forms part of a portfolio of financial instruments that are managed together and for which there is evidence of

short-term profit taking; or

They are designated at FVTPL upon initial recognition to eliminate or reduce an accounting mismatch.

Financial assets at FVTPL are measured at fair value with subsequent changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss.

Financial Liabilities

Financial liabilities are classified into the following measurement categories:

Those to be measured at amortised cost;

Those to be measured at FVTPL.

Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost

Financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost if they are not held for trading or designated at FVTPL.

Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost are accounted for using the effective interest rate method.

Financial liabilities measured at FVTPL

Financial liabilities are measured at FVTPL if:

They are held for trading whose principal objective is achieved through selling or repurchasing the financial liability in the

near term, or forms part of a portfolio of financial instruments that are managed together and for which there is evidence of

short-term profit taking; or

They are designated at FVTPL upon initial recognition to eliminate or reduce an accounting mismatch.

Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value with subsequent changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss.

Further details of the accounting policy for each category of financial asset or financial liability mentioned above is set out in the

note for the relevant item.

The Banking Group’s policies for determining the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities are set out in Note 19 - Fair

value.

Recognition

The Banking Group initially recognises finance receivables and borrowings on the date that they are originated. All other financial

assets and liabilities (including assets and liabilities designated at FVTPL) are initially recognised on the trade date at which the

Banking Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

P. 16
1 Financial statements preparation (continued)

Derecognition

The Banking Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it

transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks

and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. Any interest in transferred financial assets that is created or

retained by the Banking Group is recognised as a separate asset.

The Banking Group enters into transactions whereby it transfers assets recognised on its consolidated statement of financial

position, but retains either all risks or rewards of the transferred assets or a portion of them. If all or substantially all risks and

rewards are retained, then the transferred assets are not derecognised from the consolidated statement of financial position.

Transfers of assets with the retention of all or substantially all risks and rewards include, for example, securitised assets and

repurchase transactions.

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the obligation is discharged, cancelled or expires. Where an existing financial liability is

replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially

modified, the exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability,

with the difference in the respective carrying amounts recognised in profit or loss.

Offsetting financial instruments

The Banking Group offsets financial assets and financial liabilities and reports the net balance in the balance sheet where there is

currently a legally enforceable right to set off and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the

liability simultaneously.

P. 17
Performance

2 Segmental analysis

Segment information is presented in respect of the Banking Group's operating segments which are those used for the Banking

Group's management and internal reporting structure.

Operating segments

The Banking Group operates within New Zealand and comprises the following main operating segments:

MotorMotor vehicle finance.

Reverse mortgagesReverse mortgage lending in New Zealand. Refer to Note 21 - Credit risk exposure for details of this

product.

Personal lendingTransactional, home loans and personal loans to individuals.

BusinessTerm debt, plant and equipment finance, commercial mortgage lending and working capital solutions for

small-to-medium sized businesses.

RuralSpecialist financial services to the farming sector primarily offering livestock finance, rural mortgage

lending, seasonal and working capital financing, as well as leasing solutions to farmers.

Certain operating expenses, such as premises, IT and support centre costs are not allocated to operating segments and are

included in Other. Finance receivables are allocated across the operating segments as assets and liabilities are managed

centrally and therefore are not allocated across the operating segments.

The Banking Group's operating segments are different from the industry categories detailed in Note 21 - Credit risk exposure. The

operating segments are primarily categorised by sales channel, whereas Note 21 - Credit risk exposure categorises exposures

based on credit risk concentrations.

3 Net interest income

Policy

Interest income and expense on financial instruments is measured using the effective interest rate method that discounts the

financial instruments' future cash flows to their present value and allocates the interest income or expense over the life of the

financial instrument. The effective interest rate is established on initial recognition of the financial assets or liabilities and is not

subsequently revised. For financial instruments at amortised cost, the calculation of the effective interest rate includes all yield

related fees and commissions paid or received that are an integral part of the underlying financial instrument.

4 Net operating lease income

Policy

As a lessor, the Banking Group retains substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the assets and therefore

classifies the leases as operating leases. Rental income and expense from operating leases is recognised on a straight-line basis

over the term of the relevant lease. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to the

carrying amount of the leased asset and recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Profits on the sale of operating

lease assets are included as part of operating lease income. Current year depreciation and losses on the sale of operating lease

assets are included as part of operating lease expenses. The leased assets are depreciated over their useful lives on a basis

consistent with similar assets.

P. 21
8 Impaired asset expense

Policy

Impairment of finance receivables

At each reporting date, the Banking Group applies a three stage approach to measuring ECL to finance receivables not carried at

fair value. The ECL model assesses whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition.

The ECL model is a forward looking model where impairment allowances are recognised before losses are actually incurred. On

initial recognition, an impairment allowance is required, based on events that are possible in the next 12 months.

Assets may migrate between the following stages based on their change in credit quality:

Stage 1 - 12 months ECL (past due 30 days or less)

Where there has been no evidence of increased credit risk since initial recognition, and finance receivables are not credit impaired

upon origination, the portion of the lifetime ECL associated with the probability of default events occurring within the next 12

months is recognised.

Stage 2 - Lifetime ECL not credit impaired (greater than 30 but less than 90 days past due)

Where there has been a significant increase in credit risk.

Stage 3 - Lifetime ECL credit impaired (90 days past due or more)

Objective evidence of impairment, so are considered to be in default or otherwise credit impaired.

In determining whether credit risk has increased all available information relevant to the assessment of economic conditions at

the reporting date are taken into consideration. To do this the Banking Group considers its historical loss experience and adjusts

this for current observable data. In addition to this the Banking Group uses reasonable and supportable forecasts of future

economic conditions including experienced judgement to estimate the amount of an expected impairment loss. Future economic

conditions consider macroeconomic factors such as unemployment, interest rate, gross domestic product, and inflation, and

requires an evaluation of both the current and forecast direction of the economic cycle. The methodology and assumptions

including any forecasts of future economic conditions are reviewed regularly as incorporating forward-looking information

increases the level of judgement as to how changes in these macroeconomic factors will affect the ECL.

The calculation of expected credit loss is modelled for portfolios of like assets. For portfolios which are either new or too small to

model, judgement is used to determine impairment provisions.

For assets that are individually assessed for ECL, the allowance for ECL is calculated directly as the difference between the

defaulted assets carrying value and the recoverable amount (being the present value of expected future cash flows, including cash

flows from the realisation of collateral or guarantees, where applicable).

The Banking Group’s models for estimating ECL for each of its portfolios are based on the historic credit experience of those

portfolios. The models assume that economic conditions (such as Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth, unemployment rates,

and house price index forecasts) remain static over time. If the Banking Group forecasts that economic conditions may change in

the foreseeable future, the Banking Group applies judgement to determine whether the modelled output should be subject to an

economic overlay. Judgement is required to establish clear correlation between key economic indicators and the credit

performance of the Group’s unique portfolios.

9 Taxation

Policy

Income tax

Income tax expense for the year comprises current tax and movements in deferred tax balances, including any adjustment

required for prior years' tax expense. Income tax expense is recognised in profit and loss except to the extent that it relates to

items recognised directly in other comprehensive income, in which case it is recognised in equity or other comprehensive income.

Current tax

Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively

enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to the tax payable or receivable in respect of previous years. Current tax for

current and prior years is recognised as a liability (or asset) to the extent that it is unpaid (or refundable).

Deferred tax

Deferred tax is provided using the balance sheet liability method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying

amounts of assets and liabilities for accounting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. As required by NZ IAS 12

Income Taxes, a deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that a future taxable profit will be available

to realise the asset.

Goods and services tax (GST)

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of GST. As the Banking Group is predominantly involved in providing financial

services, only a proportion of GST paid on inputs is recoverable. The non-recoverable proportion of GST is treated as an expense

or, if relevant, as part of the cost of acquisition of an asset.

Financial Position

10 Investments

Policy

Investments are classified into one of the following categories:

Fair value through profit or loss

Investments under this category include equity investments and are measured at fair value plus transaction costs. Changes in fair

value of these investments are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they occur.

Fair value through other comprehensive income

Investments under this category include bank bonds, floating rate notes, local authority stock, public securities, corporate bonds

and equity investments. These are initially measured at fair value, including transaction costs, and subsequently carried at fair

value. Changes in fair value of these investments are recognised in other comprehensive income and presented within the fair

value reserve.

Amortised cost

Investments under this category include bank deposits and are measured using effective interest rate method. They are held to

collect contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

11 Derivative financial instruments

Policy

The Banking Group uses derivatives for risk management purposes. Derivatives held for risk management purposes include

hedges that either meet the hedge accounting requirements set out in NZ IAS 39, or economic hedges not placed into an

accounting hedge relationship.

Derivatives are recognised at their fair value, with the derivatives being carried as assets when their fair value is positive and as

liabilities when their fair value is negative.

A hedged item is an asset, liability, firm commitment or highly probable forecast transaction that exposes the Banking Group to

risk of changes in fair value or cash flows, and that is designated as being hedged. The Banking Group applies fair value hedge

accounting to hedge movements in the value of fixed interest rate assets and liabilities subject to interest rate risk. The Banking

Group applies cash flow hedge accounting to hedge the variability in highly probable forecast future cash flows attributable to

interest rate risk on variable rate assets and liabilities.

Fair value hedge accounting

The criteria that must be met for a relationship to qualify for hedge accounting include:

the hedging relationship must be formally designated and documented at inception of the hedge,

effectiveness testing must be carried out on an on-going basis to ensure the hedge is effective, consistent with the originally

documented risk management strategy, and

the instruments or counterparty must be a third party external to the Banking Group.

The Banking Group documents, at the inception of the transaction, the relationship between hedged items and hedging

instruments, as well as its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. The Banking Group

also documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in

hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair value of hedged items.

Subsequent to initial designation, changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify for fair value hedge

accounting are recorded through profit or loss alongside any changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are

attributable to the hedged risk.

Where the hedged item is carried at amortised cost, the movement in fair value of the hedged item attributable to the hedged

risk is made as an adjustment to the carrying value of the hedged asset or liability. When a hedging instrument expires or is sold,

or when a hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, the adjustment to carrying amount of a hedged item carried

at amortised cost is amortised to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income on an effective yield basis over the

remaining period to maturity of the hedged item. Where a hedged item carried at amortised cost is derecognised from the

balance sheet, the adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability is immediately transferred to the consolidated

statement of comprehensive income.

Cash flow hedge accounting

The criteria that must be met for a relationship to qualify for hedge accounting include:

the hedging relationship must be formally designated and documented at inception of the hedge,

effectiveness testing must be carried out on an on-going basis to ensure the hedge is effective, consistent with the originally

documented risk management strategy, and

the instruments or counterparty must be a third party external to the Banking Group.

P. 26
11 Derivative financial instruments (continued)

Cash flow hedge accounting (continued)

The Banking Group documents, at the inception of the transaction, the relationship between hedged items and hedging

instruments, as well as its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. The Banking Group

also documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in

hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of hedged items.

A fair value gain or loss associated with the effective portion of a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge is recognised initially

in the hedging reserve. The ineffective portion of a fair value gain or loss is recognised immediately in the consolidated statement

of comprehensive income.

When a hedging derivative expires or is sold, the hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, or the Banking Group

elects to revoke the hedge designation, the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging derivative remains in the cash flow hedging

reserve until the forecast transaction occurs and affects income, at which point it is transferred to the corresponding income or

expense line. If a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss on the hedging derivative

previously reported in the cash flow hedging reserve is immediately transferred to the consolidated statement of comprehensive

income.

The Banking Group has entered into credit support annexes (CSAs) which form a part of International Swaps and Derivatives

Association (ISDA) Master Agreement, in respect of certain exposures relating to derivative transactions. As per these CSAs, the

Banking Group or the counterparty needs to collateralise the market value of outstanding derivative transactions. As at 30 June

2022, the Banking Group has received $32.34 million of cash collateral (2021: $4.09 million) against derivative assets. The cash

collateral received is not netted off against the balance of derivative assets disclosed in the consolidated statement of financial

position.

The Banking Group actively manages interest rate risk by entering into derivative contracts to hedge against movements in

interest rates. During the year interest rate swaps entered into by the Banking Group could not be designated into a hedging

relationship with the portfolio of financial assets and liabilities held considering their underlying risks could no longer be critically

matched against those of the interest rate swaps. Consequently, hedge accounting could not be established resulting in the

recognition of fair value gains from the interest rate swaps in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

P. 27
12 Finance receivables

(a) Finance receivables held at amortised cost

Policy

Finance receivables are initially recognised at fair value plus incremental direct transaction costs and are subsequently

measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment loss.

Fees and direct costs relating to loan origination, financing and loan commitments are deferred and amortised to interest

income over the life of the loan using the effective interest rate method. Lending fees not directly related to the origination of a

loan are recognised over the period of service.

Past due but not impaired assets are any assets which have not been operated by the counterparty within their key terms but

are not considered to be impaired by the Banking Group.

Individually impaired assets are those loans for which the Banking Group has evidence that it will incur a loss, and will be unable

to collect all principal and interest due according to the contractual terms of the loan.

In determining whether credit risk has increased all available information relevant to the assessment including information

about past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions at the reporting date

are taken into consideration.

The calculation of expected credit loss is modelled for portfolios of like assets. For portfolios which are either new or too small

to model, judgement is used to determine impairment provisions.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets with finite useful lives

Software acquired or internally developed by the Banking Group is stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and any

accumulated impairment losses. Expenditure on software assets is capitalised only when it increases the future economic value of

that asset. Amortisation of software is on a straight line basis, at rates which will write off the cost over the assets’ estimated

useful lives. The expected useful life of the software varies up to ten years.

Goodwill

Goodwill arising on acquisition represents the excess of the cost of the acquisition over the Banking Group’s interest in the fair

value of the identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill that has an indefinite useful life is not subject to amortisation and is tested

for impairment annually. Goodwill is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to cash generating units. A Cash Generating Unit (CGU) is the

smallest identifiable group of assets that generate independent cash inflows. The Banking Group has assessed that goodwill

should be allocated to Heartland Bank Limited as the smallest identifiable CGU.

Goodwill is tested for impairment at a cash generating unit level. The recoverable amounts are determined on a value in use basis

using a five-year discounted cash flow methodology based on financial budget and forecasts. Key assumptions used in the models

included a discount rate of 10% and a terminal growth rate of 2% which reflect both past experience and external sources of

information. The recoverable amounts for each CGU are compared to the respective carrying value of net assets.

There was no indication of impairment and no impairment losses have been recognised against the carrying amount of goodwill

for the year ended 30 June 2022 (30 June 2021: nil).

Policy

Employee benefits

Annual leave entitlements are accrued at amounts expected to be paid. Long service leave is accrued by calculating the probable

Leases

The Banking Group leases office space, car parks, equipment and cars. Rental contracts are typically made for fixed periods but

may have extension options. Lease terms are negotiated on an individual basis and contain a wide range of different terms and

conditions.

In determining the lease term, all facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive to exercise an extension option are

considered. Extension options are only included in the lease term if the lease is reasonably certain to be extended.

Lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments and discounted using the Banking Group's

incremental borrowing rate (IBR). Lease liabilities are measured using the effective interest method. Carrying amounts are

remeasured only upon reassessments and lease modifications.

Right of use assets are depreciated at the shorter of lease term or the Banking Group’s depreciation policy for that asset class.

During the year, the beneficiaries of SCBS accepted a settlement offer and were paid a final lump sum totalling $1.3 million. This

was supported by an actuarial valuation and approved by the Financial Markets Authority (FMA). The residual balance was

transferred to HBL as the employer, leaving the above balance to cover remaining costs.

HGH has indemnified HBL against a non performing loan which had a balance of $4.3 million as at 30 June 2022 (2021: nil).

19 Fair value

Policy

Fair value is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between

market participants at the measurement date.

On initial recognition, the transaction price generally represents the fair value of the financial instrument, unless there is

observable information from an active market that provides a more appropriate fair value.

The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities that are traded in active markets are based on quoted market prices or

dealer price quotations. For all other financial instruments, the Banking Group determines fair value using other valuation

techniques.

P. 38
19 Fair value (continued)

The Banking Group measures fair values using the following fair value hierarchy, which reflects the observability of the inputs

used in measuring fair value:

Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that

is, as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices).

Level 3 - Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

The Banking Group recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy as at the end of the reporting period during

which the change has occurred.

(a) Financial instruments measured at fair value

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial asset and liability measured

at fair value on a recurring basis in the consolidated statement of financial position.

The Banking Group has an established framework in performing valuations required for financial reporting purposes including

Level 3 fair values. The Banking Group regularly reviews and calibrates significant unobservable inputs and valuation adjustments

in accordance with market participants’ views. If external valuation specialists are engaged to measure fair values, the Banking

Group assesses the evidence obtained from these specialists to support the conclusion of these valuations. All significant

valuations are reported to the Banking Group's Board Audit Committee for approval prior to its adoption in the financial

statements.

Investments

Investments in public sector securities and corporate bonds are stated at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI),

with the fair value being based on quoted market prices (Level 1 under the fair value hierarchy) or modelled using observable

market inputs (Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy). Refer to Note - 10 Investments for more details.

Investments valued under Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy are valued either based on quoted market prices or dealer quotes for

similar instruments, or discounted cash flows analysis.

Investments in equity securities are classified as fair value through profit or loss unless an irrevocable election is made by the

Banking Group to measure at FVOCI. Investment in listed securities traded in liquid, active markets where prices are readily

observable are measured under Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy with no modelling or assumptions used in the valuation.

Investments in unlisted equity securities are measured under Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy with the fair value being based on

unobservable inputs using market accepted valuation techniques. Where appropriate, the Banking Group may apply adjustments

to the above-mentioned techniques to determine fair value of an equity security to reflect the underlying characteristics. These

adjustments are reflective of market participant considerations in valuing the said security.

Investment properties

Investment properties are initially recorded at their fair value, with subsequent changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss.

Fair value are determined by qualified independent valuers or other similar external evidence, adjusted for changes in market

conditions.

Investment properties have been acquired through the enforcement of security over finance receivables and are held to earn

rental income or for capital appreciation (or both).

Finance receivables - reverse mortgages

Reverse mortgage loans are classified at FVTPL. On initial recognition the Banking Group considers the transaction price to

represent the fair value of the loan.

P. 39
19 Fair value (continued)


(a) Financial instruments measured at fair value (continued)

Finance receivables - reverse mortgages (continued)

For subsequent measurement the Banking Group has considered if the fair value can be determined by reference to a relevant

active market or observable inputs, but has concluded relevant support is not currently available. In the absence of such market

evidence the Banking Group has used valuation techniques (income approach) including actuarial assessments to consider the fair

value.

When the Banking Group enters into a reverse mortgage loan the Banking Group has set expectations regarding the loan’s current

and future risk profile and expectation of performance. This expectation references a wide range of assumptions including:

mortality and potential move into care;

voluntary exits;

house price changes;

no negative equity guarantee; and

interest rate margin.

At balance date the Banking Group does not consider any of the above expectations to have moved outside of the original

expectation range. Therefore, the Banking Group has continued to estimate the fair value of the portfolio at transaction price.

There has been no fair value movement recognised in profit or loss during the period (2021: nil). Fair value is not highly sensitive

to the above assumptions due to the nature of reverse mortgage loans. In particular, given conservative origination loan-to-value

ratio criteria, a material deterioration in house prices combined with a material increase in interest rates over a sustained period

of time would likely need to occur before any potential impact to fair value. While noting the significant uncertainty around future

economic conditions, based on current judgement there is no evidence that COVID-19 has impacted or will have a long-term

adverse impact on market conditions, particularly regarding the key elements of house prices or interest rates, that would

materially influence the fair value of the reverse mortgage portfolio at balance date.

The Banking Group will continue to reassess the existence of a relevant active market and movements in expectations on an on-

going basis.

Derivative financial instruments

Interest rate and foreign currency related contracts are recognised in the financial statements at fair value. Fair values are

determined from observable market prices as at the reporting date, discounted cash flow models or option pricing models as

appropriate (Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy).

The following table analyses financial instruments measured at fair value at the reporting date by the level in the fair value

hierarchy into which each fair value measurement is categorised. The amounts are based on the values recognised in the

consolidated statement of financial position.

(b) Financial instruments not measured at fair value

The following assets and liabilities of the Banking Group are not measured at fair value in the consolidated statement of financial

position.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are measured at amortised cost and their carrying value is considered equivalent to their fair value due

to their short term nature.

Finance receivables

The fair value of the Banking Group's finance receivables is calculated using a valuation technique which assumes the Banking

Group's current weighted average lending rates for loans of a similar nature and term.

The current weighted average lending rate used to fair value finance receivables with a fixed interest rate was 7.77% (2021:

7.08%). Finance receivables with a floating interest rate are deemed to be at current market rates. The current amount of credit

provisioning has been deducted from the fair value calculation of finance receivables as a proxy for future losses.

P. 42
19 Fair value (continued)

(b) Financial instruments not measured at fair value (continued)

Borrowings

The fair value of deposits, bank borrowings and other borrowings is the present value of future cash flows and is based on the

current market interest rates payable by the Banking Group for debt of similar maturities. The average current market rate used

to fair value borrowings was 3.57% (2021: 1.23%).

Due to and from related parties

The fair value of amounts due to and from related parties is considered equivalent to their carrying value due to their short term

nature.

Other financial assets and financial liabilities

The fair value of financial instruments such as short-term trade receivables and payables is considered equivalent to their carrying

value due to their short-term nature.

Risk Management

20 Enterprise risk management program

The board of directors (the Board) sets and monitors the Banking Group’s risk appetite across the primary risk domains of credit,

capital, liquidity, market (including interest rate), operational and compliance and general business risk. Management are, in turn,

responsible for ensuring appropriate structures, policies, procedures and information systems are in place to actively manage

these risk domains, as outlined within the Enterprise Risk Management Framework (ERMF). Collectively, these processes are

known as the Bank's Enterprise Risk Management Program (RMP).

Role of the Board and the Board Risk Committee

The Board, through its Board Risk Committee (BRC) is responsible for oversight and governance of the development of the RMP.

The role of the BRC is to assist the Board to formulate its risk appetite, and to monitor the effectiveness of the RMP. The BRC has

the following specific responsibilities:

The Board's Risk Appetite Statement.

Heartland’s Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Program (ICAAP) including appropriate stress testing scenarios.

The effectiveness of the ERMF and internal compliance and risk related policies, including approval or variation of policies,

procedures and standards.

Respond to changes anticipated in the economic, business and regulatory environment.

Conduct, culture and customer outcomes, including emerging risks and any areas of concern.

Credit exposures of the Bank, including the Delegated Lending Authority Policy and Framework.

New products, including the process for approval of new products.

The BRC consists of three non-executive directors. Two members of the BRC sit on the Board Audit Committee (BAC). In addition,

the CEO HBL, CRO, Head of Internal Audit and the CFO Heartland Group Holdings Limited (or their nominee, subject to the Chair’s

prior approval) attend the BRC meetings, and the directors who are not members of the BRC are entitled to attend meetings and

to receive copies of the BRC papers.

Board Audit Committee

The BAC focuses on financial reporting and application of accounting policies as part of the internal control and risk assessment

framework. The BAC monitors the identification, evaluation and management of all significant risks through the Banking Group.

This work is supported by Internal Audit, which provides an independent assessment of the design, adequacy and effectiveness of

internal controls. The BAC receives regular reports from Internal Audit.

Charters for both the BRC and the BAC ensure suitable cross representation to allow effective communication pertaining to

identified issues with oversight by the Board. The CRO has a direct reporting line to the Chair of the BRC. The Head of

Internal Audit has a direct reporting line to the Chair of the BAC.

Internal Audit

The Banking Group has an Internal Audit function, the objective of which is to provide independent, objective assurance over the

internal control environment. In certain circumstances, Internal Audit will provide risk and control advice to Management

provided the work does not impede the independence of the Internal Audit function. The function assists The Banking Group in

accomplishing its objectives by bringing a systematic and disciplined approach to evaluate and improve the effectiveness of risk

management, control, and governance processes.

Internal Audit is allowed full, free and unfettered access to any and all of the organisation’s records, personnel and physical

properties deemed necessary to accomplish its activities.

P. 45
20 Enterprise risk management program (continued)

Internal Audit (continued)

A regular cycle of review has been implemented to cover all areas of the business, focused on assessment, management and

control of risks identified. The audit plan takes into account cyclical review of various business units and operational areas, as

well as identified areas of higher identified risk. The audit methodology is designed to meet the International Standards for the

Professional Practice of Internal Auditing of The Institute of Internal Auditors.

Each audit has specific audit procedures tailored to the area of business that is being reviewed. The audit procedures are

updated during each audit to reflect any process changes. Audit work papers are completed to evidence the testing performed in

accordance with the audit procedures.

Audit reports are addressed to the manager of the relevant area that is being audited in addition to other relevant stakeholders

within the Bank. Management comments are obtained from the process owner(s) and are included in the report.

The Internal Audit function has a direct reporting line to the BAC of the Bank. A schedule of all outstanding internal control issues

is maintained and presented to the BAC to assist the BAC to track the resolution of previously identified issues. Any issues raised

that are categorised as high risk are specifically reviewed by Internal Audit during a follow-up review once the issue is considered

closed by management. The follow-up review is performed with a view to formally close out the issue.

Asset and Liability Committee (ALCO)

The ALCO comprises the CEO HBL, CFO, CRO, Head of Retail, Financial Controller HBL and Chief Distribution Officer. The ALCO has

responsibility for overseeing aspects of risk management of the Banking Group's financial position. The ALCO usually meet

monthly, and provide reports to the BRC. ALCO's specific responsibilities include decision making and oversight of risk matters in

relation to:

Market risk (including non-traded interest rate risk and the investment of capital).

Liquidity risk (including funding).

Foreign exchange rate risk.

Balance sheet structure.

Capital management.

Executive Risk Committee (ERC)

The ERC comprises the CEO HBL, CRO, CFO, Financial Controller HBL and Head of Internal Audit. The ERC has responsibility for

overseeing risk aspects not considered by ALCO, including that the internal control environment is managed so that residual risk is

consistent with the Banking Group's risk appetite. The ERC generally meets monthly, and provides minutes to the BRC. ERC’s

specific responsibilities include decision making and oversight of operational risk, compliance risk, and credit risk.

Operational and compliance risk

Operational and compliance risk is the risk arising from day to day operational activities in the execution of the Banking Group's

strategy which may result in direct or indirect loss. Operational and compliance risk losses can occur as a result of fraud, human

error, missing or inadequately designed processes, failed systems, damage to physical assets, improper behaviour or from

external events. The losses range from direct financial losses, to reputational damage, unfavourable media attention, injury to or

loss of staff or clients or as a breach of laws or banking regulations. Where appropriate, risks are mitigated by insurance.

To ensure appropriate responsibility is allocated for the management, reporting and escalation of operational and compliance

risk, the Banking Group operates a “three lines of defence” model which outlines principles for the roles, responsibilities and

accountabilities for operational and compliance risk management:

P. 46
20 Enterprise risk management program (continued)

Operational and compliance risk (continued)

The first line of defence is the business line management of the identification, management and mitigation of the risks

associated with the products and processes of the business. This accountability includes regular testing and attestation of the

adequacy and effectiveness of controls and compliance with the Banking Group's policies.

The second line of defence is the Risk and Compliance function, responsible for the design and ownership of the Operational

Risk Management Framework. It incorporates key processes including Risk and Control Self-Assessment (RCSA), incident

management, independent evaluation of the adequacy and effectiveness of the internal control framework and the

attestation process.

The third line of defence is Internal Audit which is responsible for independently assessing how effectively the Banking Group

is managing its risk according to its stated risk appetite.

The Banking Group’s exposure to operational and compliance risk is governed by a risk appetite statement approved by the Board

and is used to guide management activities. This statement sets out the nature of risk which may be taken and aggregate risk

limits, which are monitored by the ERC.

Market risk

Market risk is the possibility of experiencing losses or gains due to factors affecting the overall performance of financial markets

in which the Banking Group is exposed. The primary market risk exposures for the Banking Group are interest rate risk and

foreign exchange risk. The risk being that market interest rates or foreign exchange rates will change and adversely impact on the

Banking Group’s earnings due to either adverse moves in foreign exchange market rates or in the case of interest rate risks

mismatches between repricing dates of interest bearing assets and liabilities and/or differences between customer pricing and

wholesale rates.

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk refers to exposure of an entity’s earnings and / or capital because of a mismatch between the interest rate

exposures of its assets and liabilities. Interest rate risk for the Banking Group arises from the provision of non-traded retail

banking products and services and from traded wholesale transactions entered into to reduce aggregate interest rate risk (known

as hedges). This risk arises from four key sources:

Mismatches between the repricing dates of interest bearing assets and liabilities (yield curve and repricing risk);

Banking products repricing differently to changes in wholesale market rates (basis risk);

Loan prepayment or deposit early withdrawal behaviour from customers that deviates from the expected or contractually

agreed behaviour (optionality risk); and

The effect of internal or market forces on a bank’s net interest margin where, for example, in a low rate environment any fall

in rates will further decrease interest income earned on the assets whereas funding cost cannot be reduced as it is already at

the minimum level (margin compression risk).

Refer Note 24 - Interest rate risk for further details regarding interest rate risk.

Foreign exchange risk

Foreign exchange risk is the risk that the Banking Group’s earnings and shareholder equity position are adversely impacted from

changes in foreign exchange rates. The Banking Group has exposure to foreign exchange translation risks through its holding of

20 Enterprise risk management program (continued)

Counterparty Credit Risk

The Banking Group has on-going credit exposure associated with:

Cash and cash equivalents;

Finance receivables;

Holding of investment securities; and

Payments owed to the Banking Group from risk management instruments.

Counterparty credit risk is managed against limits set in the Market Risk Policy including credit exposure on derivative contracts,

bilateral set-off arrangements, cash and cash equivalents and investment securities.

21 Credit risk exposure

Credit risk is the risk that a borrower will default on any type of debt by failing to make payments which it is obligated to make.

The risk is primarily that of the lender and includes loss of principal and interest, disruption to cash flows and increased collection

costs.

Credit risk is managed to achieve sustainable risk-reward performance whilst maintaining exposures within acceptable risk

“appetite” parameters. This is achieved through the combination of governance, policies, systems and controls, underpinned by

commercial judgement as described below.

To manage this risk the ERC oversees the formal credit risk management strategy. The ERC reviews the Banking Group's credit risk

exposures typically on a monthly basis. The credit risk management strategies aim to ensure that:

Credit origination meets agreed levels of credit quality at point of approval;

Sector concentrations are monitored;

Maximum total exposure to any one debtor is actively managed;

Changes to credit risk are actively monitored with regular credit reviews.

The BRC also oversees the Banking Group's credit risk exposures to monitor overall risk metrics having regard to risk appetite set

by the Board.

The BRC has authority from the Board for approval of all credit exposures. Lending authority has been provided to the Banking

Group's Credit Committee, and to the business units under a detailed Delegated Lending Authority framework. Application of

credit discretions in the business operation are monitored through a defined review and hindsight structure as outlined in the

Credit Risk Oversight Policy. Delegated Lending Authorities are provided to individual officers with due cognisance of their

experience and ability. Larger and higher risk exposures require approval of senior management, the Credit Committee and

ultimately through to the BRC.

The Banking Group employs a credit risk oversight process of hindsighting loans to ensure that credit policies and the quality of

credit processes are maintained.

21 Credit risk exposure (continued)

Reverse mortgage loans and negative equity risk

Reverse mortgage loans are a form of mortgage lending designed for the needs of people over 60 years of age. These loans differ

to conventional mortgages in that they typically are not repaid until the borrower ceases to reside in the property. Further,

interest is not required to be paid, it is capitalised into the loan balance and is repayable on termination of the loan. As such,

there are no incoming cash flows and therefore no default risk to manage during the term of the loan. Negative equity risk arises

from the promise by the Banking Group that the maximum repayment amount is limited to the net sale proceeds of the

borrowers' property.

The Banking Group’s exposure to negative equity risk is managed by the Credit Risk Oversight Policy in conjunction with

associated lending standards specific for this product. In addition to usual criteria regarding the type, and location, of security

property that the Banking Group will accept for reverse mortgage lending, a key aspect of the Banking Group's policy is that a

borrower’s age on origination of the reverse mortgage loan will dictate the loan-to-value ratio of the reserve mortgage on

origination. The policy is managed and reviewed periodically to ensure appropriate consistency across locations.

Business Finance Guarantee Scheme (BFGS)

The Bank, along with other registered banks in New Zealand, has entered into a Deed of Indemnity with the New Zealand

Government to implement the New Zealand Government's Business Finance Guarantee Scheme. The purpose of the scheme is to

provide short term credit to eligible small and medium size businesses, who have been impacted by the economic effects of

COVID-19. The scheme allows banks to lend to a maximum of $5 million for a maximum of five years. The New Zealand

Government will guarantee 80% of any loss incurred (credit risk) with the Bank holding the remaining 20%. As at 30 June 2022 the

Bank had a total exposure of $64.8 million (2021: $64.3 million) to its customers under the scheme. BFGS has concluded on 30

June 2021 with scheme loans no longer being available.

Credit exposures to connected persons

The Banking Group's methodology for calculating credit exposure concentrations is on the basis of actual credit exposures and

calculated on a gross basis (net of individual credit impairment allowances and excluding advances of a capital nature) in

accordance with the Bank's conditions of registration and the Reserve Bank's Connected Exposures Policy (BS8). Peak end-of-day

credit exposures to non-bank connected persons are calculated using the Banking Group’s Tier 1 capital at the end of the

reporting period.

P. 50
21 Credit risk exposure (continued)

Credit exposures to connected persons (continued)

In accordance with its conditions of registration, the Banking Group's aggregate credit exposures to all connected persons must

not exceed its rating contingent limit of 15% of tier one capital. Within the overall rating contingent limit, there is a sub-limit of

15% of tier one capital which applies to the aggregate credit exposures to non-bank connected persons. There have been no

rating-contingent limit changes during the accounting period.

Credit exposures to non-bank connected persons ($000's)1,5401,540

As a percentage of Tier 1 capital of the Banking Group at end of the year (%)0.25%0.25%

As at 30 June 2022, the Banking Group had no aggregate contingent exposures to connected persons arising from risk lay-off

arrangements in respect of credit exposures to counterparties (excluding counterparties that are connected persons). The

aggregate amount of the Banking Group's individual credit provisions provided against credit exposure to connected persons was

nil at 30 June 2022.

Credit exposure to individual counterparties

The Banking Group’s aggregate concentration of credit exposure to individual counterparties is calculated based on the actual

credit exposure. Credit exposures to connected persons, the central government or central bank of any country with a long term

credit rating of A- or A3 or above, or its equivalent, and any supranational or quasi-sovereign agency with a long-term credit

rating of A- or A3 or above, or its equivalent are excluded.

The peak end-of-day aggregate concentration of credit exposure to individual counterparties has been calculated by determining

the maximum end-of-day aggregate amount of credit exposure over the relevant six-month period and then dividing the amount

by the Banking Group’s common equity tier one capital as at 30 June 2022.

(d) Credit risk grading

The Banking Group's finance receivables are monitored either by account behaviour (Behavioural portfolio) or a regular

assessment of their credit risk grade based on an objective review of defined risk characteristics (Judgemental portfolio).

Finance receivables - reverse mortgages have no arrears characteristics and are assessed on origination against a pre-determined

criteria.

The Judgemental portfolio consists mainly of business and rural lending where an on-going and detailed working relationship with

the customer has been developed while the Behavioural portfolio consists of consumer, retail and smaller business receivables.

Judgemental loans are individually risk graded based on loan status, financial information, security and debt servicing ability.

Exposures in the Judgemental portfolio are credit risk graded by an internal risk grading mechanism where grade 1 is the

strongest risk. Grade 8 and grade 9 are the weakest risk grades where a loss is probable. Behavioural loans are managed based on

their arrears status.

P. 53
22 Asset quality (continued)

(d) Credit risk grading (continued)

All loans past due but not impaired have been categorised into three impairments stages (refer Note 8) which are in most cases

based on arrears status. If a Judgemental loan is risk graded 6 or above it will be classified as stage 2 as a minimum and carry a

provision based on lifetime expected credit losses.

(f) Other assets under administration

Other assets under administration are any loans, not being individually impaired or 90 days or more past due, where the

customer is in any form of voluntary or involuntary administration, including receivership, liquidation, bankruptcy or statutory

management. As at 30 June 2022, the Banking Group had $1.0 million assets under administration (2021: $0.3 million).

P. 57
23 Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Banking Group is unable to meet its payment obligations as they fall due. The timing mismatch of

cash flows and the related liquidity risk in all banking operations is closely monitored by the Banking Group.

Measurement of liquidity risk is designed to ensure that the Banking Group has the ability to generate or obtain sufficient cash in

a timely manner and at a reasonable price to meet its financial commitments on a daily basis.

The Banking Group’s exposure to liquidity risk is governed by a policy approved by the Board and managed by the Asset and

Liability Committee. This policy sets out the nature of the risk which may be taken and aggregate risk limits, and the ALCO

must observe. Within this, the objective of the ALCO is to derive the most appropriate strategy for the Banking Group in terms of

a mix of assets and liabilities given its expectations of future cash flows, liquidity constraints and capital adequacy. The ALCO

employs asset and liability cash flow modelling to determine appropriate liquidity and funding strategies.

Reserve Bank of New Zealand facilities

In March 2020, the Bank was onboarded by the Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) as an approved counterparty and executed

a 2011 Global Master Repo Agreement providing an additional source for intra-day liquidity for the Banking Group if required.

From 26 May 2020, the RBNZ made available a Term Lending Facility (TLF) to offer loans for a fixed term of three years at the

Official Cash Rate, with access to the funds linked to banks’ lending under the Business Finance Guarantee Scheme. On 25 May

2021, RBNZ announced to close TLF applications on 28 July 2021.

Additional stimulus provided through a Funding for Lending Programme also commenced in December 2020 designed to enable

banks to provide low-cost lending to the customer.

The Banking Group had not utilised any of these facilities as at 30 June 2022.

The Banking Group holds the following liquid assets and committed funding sources for the purpose of managing liquidity risk:

Contractual liquidity profile of financial liabilities

The following tables present the Banking Group's financial liabilities by relevant maturity groupings based upon contractual

maturity date. The amounts disclosed in the tables represent undiscounted future principal and interest cash flows. As a result,

the amounts in the tables below may differ to the amounts reported on the consolidated statement of financial position.

The contractual cash flows presented below may differ significantly from actual cash flows. This occurs as a result of future

actions by the Banking Group and its counterparties, such as early repayments or refinancing of term loans and borrowings.

Deposits and other public borrowings include customer savings deposits and transactional accounts, which are at call. These

accounts provide a stable source of long term funding for the Banking Group.

24 Interest rate risk

The Banking Group's market risk is derived primarily of exposure to interest rate risk, predominantly from raising funds through

the retail and wholesale deposit market, the debt capital markets and committed and uncommitted bank funding, securitisation

of receivables, and offering loan finance products to the commercial and consumer market in New Zealand and Australia.

The Banking Group’s exposure to market risk is governed by a policy approved by the Board and managed by the ALCO. This

policy sets out the nature of risk which may be taken and aggregate risk limits, and the ALCO must conform to this. The objective

of the ALCO is to derive the most appropriate strategy for the Banking Group in terms of the mix of assets and liabilities given its

expectations of the future and the potential consequences of interest rate movements, liquidity constraints and capital

adequacy.

The objective of the Banking Group’s interest rate risk policies is to limit underlying net profit after tax (NPAT) volatility. The

measurement comprises net interest income the Banking Group generates from its interest earning assets and interest bearing

liabilities.

The exposure to net interest income comes from a reduction in margins on interest earning assets or interest bearing liabilities

and is managed when setting rates by taking into consideration wholesale rates, liquidity premiums, as well as appropriate

lending credit margins.

An analysis of the Banking Group’s sensitivity to an increase (+) or decrease (-) in market interest rates by 100 basis points (BP) is

as follows. An (+)/(-) to market interest rates of 100 BP would result in a $0.7 million (+)/(-) to NPAT (2021: $0.2 million (+)/(-))

with a corresponding impact to equity.

The Banking Group also manages interest rate risk by:

Monitoring maturity profiles and seeking to match the re-pricing of assets and liabilities;

Monitoring interest rates daily and regularly (at least monthly) reviewing interest rate exposures; and

Entering into derivatives to hedge against movements in interest rates.
