* The six month consolidated result has been restated to exclude ArborGen’s New Zealand and Australian

businesses, following the sale of these business in November 2021.


During the six-month period, the Group reported:

 Revenue of $7.4 million from continuing operations in the US and Brazil, up 61% on the prior comparative

period (pcp), driven by strong sales growth in Brazil.

 Gross Profit of $1.8 million, up 260% on pcp as a result of strong sales and margin growth in Brazil.

 Operating loss (before other significant items)

1

of $0.6 million, $1.2 million lower than the $0.6 million

operating gain reported in the pcp. Operating loss includes higher amortisation expense of $3.8 million ($3.1

million in the pcp) consistent with the change in FY22 reducing the useful life of intellectual property to 17

years. The operating loss also includes a lower biological assets gain in the US of $5.9 million ($7.2 million gain

in the pcp) due to lower seedling margin expected this fiscal year in the US

2

.

 Net loss of $1.6 million

2

including $0.3 million of strategic review costs incurred prior to the completion of the

review in June. This compares with a net loss from continuing operations of $0.5 million in the prior period

which included $0.6 million of other significant items

1

.

 Net debt (excluding capitalised leases) of $17.5 million, down from $29.9 million in the prior comparable

period including the proceeds from the sale of ArborGen’s New Zealand and Australian businesses in

November 2021. Treestock sales in the US occur in the second half of the fiscal year, which will result in lower

net debt at 31 March 2023.

 US GAAP EBITDA

3

for continuing operations is expected to be in the range of $10 million to $10.5 million for

the fiscal year ending 31 March 2023 (FY23), subject to unknown factors, including $2 million of expected

Employee Retention Credits payable to ArborGen under the Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security

(CARES) Act.






1

Other significant items comprise strategic review costs of $0.3 million incurred in the first quarter of the current fiscal year ending 31

March 2023 ($0.6 of government grant income and $1.2m of strategic review costs).

2

Operating Loss and Net loss includes a biological asset gain of $5.9 million ($7.2 million gain in the prior period) which relates to a

share of earnings on seedling crop still in the ground to be lifted in the second half of the fiscal year, as required under IFRS.

3

US GAAP EBITDA excludes NZ public company costs and strategic review costs.

Dear Shareholder


Key Growth and Strategic Initiatives


We remain focused on executing the key strategic, operational, and financial goals we have set for the business:

 Expanding our supply of proprietary advanced genetics, and growing sales of advanced products;

 Expanding our footprint in our core growth regions;

 Improving cash flow generation; and

 Mitigating the risk of adverse climatic events.


Expanding supply of advanced genetics in the US

In November 2022, we harvested our highest ever number of Mass Control Pollinated (MCP) cones in bushels

from orchards we planted over a decade ago in 2011 and 2012 which are coming into full production. The seed

from these harvested cones will be extracted over the next two months, and is currently expected to generate

over 200 million MCP seedling equivalents. Importantly, approximately 60% of the forecast seed expected will

be for the Eastern provenances (30% for the Coastal region) which have been severely supply constrained over

recent years. Seed extracted from this year’s cone harvest will partly be used to produce MCP seedlings in 2023

(i.e. seedling sales in fiscal year ending March 2024), and partly to build critical seed inventory in all provenances

available for future periods, reducing our reliance on single year harvests.


As part of our risk mitigation, our goal is to have 2-3 years of MCP seed inventory on hand for each genetic class

/ provenance to mitigate against single-year harvest shortages. We have achieved this target in Piedmont and

Texas, and we are working to achieve the same in the other deployment zones we operate in. ArborGen already

has several years of Open Pollinated (OP) seed inventory for most provenances.


The map below shows the five loblolly deployment zones in the US South, spanning the Coastal, Piedmont, and

Northern region (or collectively the Eastern region), and Arkansas and Texas (i.e. the Western region).

ArborGen is the only company with a portfolio of MCP products addressing the entire US South loblolly market.

As can be seen in the table below, our advanced products are in all regions, with additional products currently

in the pipeline.

Importantly, we continue to invest in our pine tree improvement programme, allowing us to widen the gap

between ourselves and the rest of the market. In recent years we have launched the next generation of MCP

products (MCP 2.0) for some provenances, with MCP 3.0 now already in development.


Expanding our footprint in the US and Brazil

United States


Earlier this year, the Board approved the expansion of ArborGen’s internal container capacity across two

existing owned sites. We have since been able to increase our total target container capacity by increasing our

Bellville capacity from 13 to approximately 16 million seedlings, while remaining on track on the first phase of

container production in our Western regions with the construction of a new five million unit container facility

in Bullard, Texas.


We have been able to do this very cost effectively as we leverage existing physical infrastructure at our nurseries

in Belville, Georgia and Bullard, Texas. Utilising our existing operating infrastructure will also result in improved

contribution margins from this new container facility. We have already begun discussions with customers who

want to make sure they are “in line” to access this new capacity. The container expansion project is on track at

both facilities, and we expect to begin producing container seedlings for sale next fiscal year (FY24).


Brazil


The Brazilian forestry industry is one of the largest and fastest-growing in the world. Brazil is the world’s largest

producer and exporter of hardwood pulp, with domestic eucalyptus plantations utilising approximately 800

million seedlings per year. Brazil also produces softwood, requiring approximately 80 million seedlings per year.


To address these markets, ArborGen began its commercial pine and eucalyptus seedling operations in Brazil in

2014. Our strategy was predicated on our belief that by combining proprietary genetics and tree improvement

capabilities with our deep understanding of seedling production, we would be uniquely positioned to address

markets that were poised for strong growth due to expansion of the pulp and other wood consuming industries

in Brazil.









5

ArborGen uses a combination of in-house and outsourced production to allow us to meet demand in a capital

efficient and flexible way. ArborGen now has three eucalyptus nurseries and one pine nursery in Brazil, as well

as a network of seedling contract producers, allowing us to address all of the major pine and eucalyptus markets

in the country. ArborGen’s eucalyptus products are available in all of the primary eucalyptus growing regions

in Brazil including the states of Minas Gerais, Mato Grosso, Mato Grosso do Sul, São Paulo and Paraná.


Earlier this year, we completed the acquisition of a 10 million seedling pine nursery located in Canoinhas, Santa

Catarina, Brazil. Sales from this newly acquired pine nursery are occurring ahead of schedule supporting overall

pine seedling sales of approximately 20 million seedlings in the current fiscal year. Sales of proprietary pine

products represent over 95% of total pine volume forecast.


More recently, ArborGen Brazil executed a long term lease agreement commencing 1 December 2022 for a

eucalyptus nursery located in the community of Martinho Campos in Minas Gerais state, which has the largest

eucalyptus footprint in Brazil. This new 20 million seedlings per annum nursery, will increase ArborGen’s internal

eucalyptus production capacity in Brazil to nearly 50 million seedlings per year. ArborGen is leasing the nursery

from the S&D group, an integrated steel company with forest holdings, charcoal production, pig-iron production

(which uses wood based charcoal) and other activities. The agreement with S&D will allow ArborGen to increase

the proportion of our internally produced eucalyptus seedlings to over 50% of our total requirements currently,

up from approximately 30% today, providing us greater control over eucalyptus production in a very high

demand environment.


We are currently working on an opportunity to further expand our in-house eucalyptus capacity by an additional

ten million seedling per annum for next fiscal year (FY24).


Expanding in-house eucalyptus production will help accelerate customer conversion to advanced genetics

eucalyptus clones. Advanced genetics clonal sales currently represent over 40% of ArborGen Brazil’s eucalyptus

sales of over 70 million seedlings, with the balance comprising market clones that are broadly available to most

seedling producers. ArborGen’s portfolio of advanced eucalyptus products offer growers higher yields and

higher wood density than standard market clones, improved disease and insect resistance and good drought

tolerance which is an increasingly important trait as eucalyptus plantings in Brazil expand into dryer regions and

as rainfall patterns change as a result of global climate change.



New growth opportunities – reducing greenhouse gas emissions

There is now a clear and increasing focus on the importance of reducing greenhouse gases globally, and forests

have an important role to play as trees capture carbon dioxide, one of the main greenhouse gases from the

atmosphere and store it in trunks, branches, foliage and roots. Forest based carbon projects will be increasingly

important in creating demand for both pine and hardwood seedlings in the Southern US as carbon project

developers actively pursue large scale afforestation and reforestation projects.


ArborGen, with its high yielding MCP products, its hardwood production capabilities and its extensive channels

to forest landowners is very well positioned to address this new opportunity. In the current FY23 fiscal year, we

began supplying hardwoods and pine seedlings to two of the leading carbon companies operating in the South.

We have executed a long term exclusive supply agreement with one of these companies and are currently

negotiating a similar agreement with the second.


While it is difficult to predict how quickly the carbon opportunity will grow, we believe that over time it

potentially represents a new market with different dynamics, and could represent a significant new source of

revenue and earnings.

Outlook


Turning to our current fiscal year, in the US we expect sales to be affected by supply chain challenges, cost

inflation, temporary customer specific demand matters with some of our large National Accounts, and reduced

seedlings (including advanced genetics MCP seedlings) available for sale compared to prior fiscal year. As a result,

we are expecting current FY23 unit seedling sales in the US, including advanced genetics sold, to be

approximately 5% lower than FY22 unit sales.


In addition, higher historic MCP seed costs relating to pollination activity two years ago (when production from

our younger orchards was less than optimal), combined with general cost inflation pressure, are expected to

adversely impact gross margins in the US this fiscal year. As seedling prices are typically set at the beginning of

the seedling production year, we were unable to pass cost increases on in the current year. We are however

working on initiatives (including pricing) to improve margins next fiscal year.


In Brazil, the underlying market drivers continue to be very strong, with new pulp mills and strong charcoal

markets driving domestic demand for eucalyptus and softwood. As a result, demand for eucalyptus and pine

seedlings is very strong, which is also driving cost increases, seedling price increases and importantly, margin

expansion for ArborGen’s eucalyptus and pine seedlings. The profitability of our Brazilian operations in FY23 is

projected to be materially higher than the breakeven result recorded in FY22, with ArborGen Brazil already

recording $1 million of EBITDA in the first six months of this year.


Taking into account all of the above factors, we are currently projecting US GAAP EBITDA

3

for FY23 to be in the

range of $10 to $10.5 million for continuing operations. This includes $2 million of Employee Retention Credits

under the Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act

4

.


While we have incurred greater growth spend with the larger container facility at Bullard, Texas and addition of

the S&D eucalyptus nursery in Brazil, we are targeting net debt to be below $10 million by fiscal year-end (31

March 2023), further strengthening ArborGen’s balance sheet in a tightening monetary policy environment.

We would like to thank all of our stakeholders for their continued support – it is very much appreciated.

Under the CARES Act, businesses can apply for a credit of the payroll taxes paid on wages between March 2020 and September 2021 for

wages not forgiven under the CARES Act Paycheck Protection Program (PPP). While as a next step, ArborGen Inc. will need to file

amended quarterly payroll tax forms with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to notify the IRS of the credit due to the Company, there is a

high probability that the Company will receive the reimbursements approximating US$2 million.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

For the s i x months e nde d 30 Se pte mbe r 2022



1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The unaudited financial statements presented are those of ArborGen Holdings Limited and Subsidiaries (the Group) for the six months

from 1 April 2022 to 30 September 2022. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with New Zealand International

Accounting Standard 34. Because they are interim statements they do not include all of the information required to be disclosed for full

annual financial statements.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the periods ended 31 March 2022

and 31 March 2021, which have been prepared in accordance with New Zealand International Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS)

and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

ArborGen Holdings Limited is registered in New Zealand under the Companies Act 1993, is listed on the New Zealand Stock Exchange,

and is a FMC Reporting Entity under the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013.

The presentation currency used in the preparation of these financial statements is United States dollars (US$), rounded to the nearest

hundred thousand dollars. Consequently all financial numbers are in US$ unless otherwise stated. Changes in prior year disclosure

comparatives have been made to align with the current year presentation.

Accounting Policies

The accounting policies applied are consistent with those applied in the annual financial statements for the period ended 31 March

2022, noting the recognition of Australia and New Zealand as discontinued operations in the comparative periods, refer to note 10.

2 APPROVAL OF ACCOUNTS

These financial statements have been prepared on a consolidated Group basis and were approved for issue by the Board of Directors on

28 November 2022.


3 USE OF ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENT

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with NZ IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions that

affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial

statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period (refer March 2022 statutory report, note

4, for greater detail). Actual results could differ from those estimates.


4 INVENTORY AND FAIR VALUE ADJUSTMENT ON BIOLOGICAL ASSET



At 30 September only the US crop (which will be lifted prior to year end) is fair valued. This fair value uplift will reverse at year end upon

lifting of the crop. At 31 March 2022, following the sale of the Australasian operations there were no crops established to be fair

valued.

At 30 September 2021 the Australasian business was classified as "held for sale", including the fair value adjustment recognised for the

Australasian crop.

(1) In March 2021 ArborGen Inc. received a second SBA loan under the CARES Act Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) of $2.0 million. This funding was

to ensure ArborGen retained all employees and avoided any layoffs, and all employees were kept on the payroll for eight weeks and at least 60% of

the loan is used for payroll related costs plus rent, mortgage interest, or utilities payments over the eight week period the loan would be forgiven.

All of these funds have since been used to fund payroll costs including benefits and other business related costs, both loans have been forgiven.

(2) The Group incurred significant costs directly related to the Covid pandemic, primarily due to cancellation of ordered seedlings in the US, where

sawmill closures in both 2020 and 2021 delayed harvesting and in turn flowed on to a delay in site preparation activities. Compounding these issues

was the temporary suspension of non-immigrant worker H2-B visas into the US, which combined with planting crews contracting Covid, led to

planting labour shortages during the critical planting season. Sales orders cancelled due to the Covid pandemic left ArborGen with 32 million

seedlings that had to be destroyed, resulting in a seedling write off of $1.6 million.

(3) In mid-March 2022, a cold front moved across the south-eastern United States, with temperatures dropping to the mid 20 degrees Fahrenheit

(negative 4 to 6 degrees Celsius) at our Georgia, South Carolina and Florida orchards. The combination of these extremely low temperatures and

very high winds resulted in significant damage to bagged MCP flowers. As a result, the volume of MCP seed ArborGen expects to be harvested in

November 2023 has reduced by 35%. The $1.5 million inventory adjustment returns the carrying value of expected inventory, to normal production

levels.

(4) The strategic review was concluded in June 2022. The review considered all options to unlock value for the benefit of all shareholders, resulting in

sale of the Australian and New Zealand (ANZ) operations to ArborGen ANZ Limited Partnership. The sale was completed on 30 November 2021 and

the ANZ operations are shown as discontinued. The Group has incurred costs in relation to the strategic review including costs related to the sale of

the ANZ operations and completion of the Strategic Review process.

6CURRENT DEBT AND TERM DEBT


At 30 September 2022 the Group had debt facilities with the following banks: Synovus Financial Corporation (Synovus) and AgSouth

Farm Credit (AgSouth) in the United States.

ArborGen has a non-revolving promissory note issued to AgSouth for $8.7 million bearing interest at 4.95%, with a maturity date of

1 May 2036, which is secured against ArborGen's US real estate properties. Annual principal repayments of $0.6 million are due 1 May

each year.

ArborGen's revolving facility agreement with Synovus is a $17 million letter of credit (LOC) facility (currently $7 million) with an expiry of

31 August 2023. The facility requires an annual 60-day (continuous) pay down maximum borrowing limit (between 1 March and 31

August) to $10 million. The LOC bears interest at the 30 day LIBOR base rate plus 2.75%, subject to a minimum annual rate of 3.5%, and

is collateralised by all the ArborGen Inc's United States assets not otherwise pledged under the AgSouth agreement.

The credit agreements with both Synovus and AgSouth include covenants which require ArborGen to maintain a minimum net worth of

$29 million and $25 million respectively.

6CURRENT DEBT AND TERM DEBT continued


Rubicon Industries USA LLC (RIUSA) has a $10.2 million mortgage from Synovus, which is secured by headquarters land and buildings.

The mortgage is a seven-year term facility expiring in August 2026 and is based on a 20-year amortising loan, incurring interest at the

30-day LIBOR base rate plus 2% (currently 3.17%). The Group has entered into a seven-year interest rate swap, with terms that match

that of the mortgage, at a fixed rate of 3.52%. The mortgage requires RIUSA to maintain a debt service coverage ratio of not less than

1.25:1 for the trailing 12 months.

At 30 September 2022 the Group held cash and liquid deposits of $8.4 million (2022: $15.2 million) and had debt of $25.9 million and

lease liabilities of $4.9 million (2022: $26.7 million of debt and $5.0 million of lease obligations).

12NON-GAAP PERFORMANCE MEASURE


ArborGen Holdings shareholders and users of the financial statements are very interested in ArborGen Inc's underlying performance

under US-GAAP (as well as under IFRS ), as that is the result that ArborGen Inc. would report in a US ‘listing’ situation. ArborGen

Holdings believes 'Adjusted US-GAAP EBITDA' provides useful information, as it is used internally to evaluate performance. It is also a

measure that equity analysts focus on for comparative company performance purposes, as the measure removes distortions caused

by different depreciation policies and debt:equity structures.

In contrast with US-GAAP, IFRS requires the capitalisation of ArborGen’s development spend, the amortisation of intellectual property,

the accrual of the change in fair value of biological assets on the seedling crop each year prior to its sale, and the capitalisation of

operating leases. Because of these differences, US-GAAP results, and in particular 'Adjusted US-GAAP EBITDA' cannot be easily

derived from reported IFRS numbers. For these reasons and in order to provide users with relevant and understandable information,

we provide the reconciliation below.

EBITDA, US-GAAP EBITDA and Adjusted US-GAAP EBITDA are all non-GAAP financial measures and are not recognised under NZ IFRS.

As they are not necessarily uniformly defined or utilised, these measures may not be comparable with similarly titled measures used

by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be viewed in isolation or considered as a substitute for measures

reported in accordance with GAAP. The following table provides users useful ArborGen Inc. information for year-on-year comparison

and reconciles net earnings to 'Adjusted US-GAAP EBITDA'.

There are statements in this Report that are ‘forward looking

statements.’ As these forward-looking statements are

predictive in nature, they are subject to a number of risks and

uncertainties relating to the Group, many of which are beyond

our control.

In particular, ArborGen’s operations and results are

significantly influenced by the general level of economic

activity in the various sectors of the economies in which it

competes, particularly in the United States, Brazil, New

Zealand and Australia prior to the sale of the ANZ business in

November 2021.

Fluctuations in industrial output and the impact that has on

global demand for wood fibre and hence harvest and

reforestation levels, government environmental and regional

development policies, capital availability, relative exchange

rates, interest rates, the profitability of our customers, can

each have a substantial impact on our operations and financial

condition.

ArborGen-specific risks and uncertainties include (in addition

to those broad economic factors noted above) the global

markets and geographies in which it operates, intellectual

property protection, regulatory approvals, the rate of

customer adoption of advanced seedling products, the success

of its research and development activities, weather conditions,

cone and seed inventory, biological matters, and the fact that

ArborGen’s annual crops and seed orchards are not the subject

of insurance cover.

As a result of the foregoing; actual results, conditions and

conclusions may differ materially from those expressed or

implied by such statements.
