It has been an eventful first half of FY23 at Vulcan, including
the purchase of Ullrich Aluminium, the largest acquisition
our company has made in its history.
Our business performed well despite an expected more
testing environment than our last financial year. Vulcan’s
1H FY23 results still represent one of the best periods for our
company after a record FY22. The team at Vulcan have the
tools, skills and experience to thrive through challenging
conditions on our journey of growth.
We are excited by the opportunities to create long-term
value for all of our stakeholders.

• EBITDA of NZ$115m, up 12% from NZ$102m in 1H FY22
• NPAT of NZ$54m, inline with 1H FY22
• EPS of 41.4 NZ cents, inline with 1H FY22
Adjusted basis (excluding offer costs)
• EBITDA was NZ$115m, down 3% in 1H FY23 from NZ$118m in 1H FY22
• NPAT of NZ$54m, down 22% in 1H FY23 from NZ$70m in 1H FY22

In August 2022, Vulcan expanded its Metals segment product offering in the market
following the company’s acquisition of Ullrich Aluminium business across Australia and
New Zealand. Hence, the 1H FY23 result included five months of contribution from our
aluminium business.
The first half of FY23 trading reflected ongoing normalisation from the previous peak
demand period during FY22 as a result of COVID-19, and softness in Australian and
New Zealand economic conditions. Reported revenue including the contribution
from acquisition increased 38% year-on-year to NZ$638m in 1H FY23 compared with
NZ$463m in 1H FY22. When excluding acquisition, revenue was up approximately 9%
year-on-year (YoY) to NZ$503m in 1H FY23.
Overall, like-for-like sales volume including our aluminium business declined by 15% year-
on-year to approximately 127,000 tonnes in the first half of FY23. Our aluminium sales
tonnes which accounted for approximately 8% of Group volume fell by 17% YoY during the
five-month period in 1H FY23 compared with the corresponding period of FY22.
Encouragingly, active trading accounts for our Steel and Metals segment (excluding
aluminium) lifted 1% half-year-on-half-year in 1H FY23 compared with 2H FY22.
Reported overall gross profit per tonne lifted approximately 30% in 1H FY23 compared
with 1H FY22. Excluding the impact of aluminium, gross profit per tonne in 1H FY23 was 9%
ahead of 1H FY22 and remains steady compared with the full year of FY22.
Because of higher average cost and selling price in 1H FY23, gross margin declined 5.4%
to 35.9% in 1H FY23 compared with the 41.3% achieved in the corresponding period of
FY22. In addition, due to the negative impact of inflation on our operating cost base,
Vulcan’s adjusted EBITDA margin retreated 7.5 percentage points from a historic peak of
25.5% in 1H FY22 to 18.0% in 1H FY23.
Vulcan (ASX: VSL, NZX: VSL) an Australasian-wide industrial product distributor and value-added processor recorded a sound
performance for the six months ended 31 December 2022 (1H FY23, the first half of 2023 financial year)

Steel
Steel revenue rose NZ$17m (5%) to NZ$317m in 1H FY23 from NZ$300m in 1H FY22.
Sales tonnes declined to approximately 94,500 tonnes in the first half of FY23, down
16% from 113,000 tonnes in the corresponding period of FY22. Average revenue per
tonne rose NZ$692 (26%) to NZ$3,351 in 1H FY23 from NZ$2,659 in 1H FY22.
Steel gross profit per tonne achieved in 1H FY23 was steady YoY compared with 1H FY22
but percentage gross margin was down 7.6 percentage points in 1H FY23 to 32.2% due
to higher average cost and selling compared with 39.8% achieved in 1H FY22.
Steel EBITDA margin declined 7.8% to 20.3% in 1H FY23 from 28.1% in 1H FY22. As a result,
EBITDA decreased NZ$20m to NZ$64m in 1H FY23 from NZ$85m in 1H FY22.
Metals
With five months of contribution from our aluminium business, Metals revenue
increased NZ$158m (98%) to NZ$321m in 1H FY23 from NZ$163m in 1H FY22. When
excluding the contribution from our aluminium business, Metals revenue rose
NZ$24m (15%) to NZ$187m.
Because of higher selling price for aluminium products, the average revenue per
tonne rose NZ$1,809 (28%) to NZ$9,772 in 1H FY23 from NZ$6,428 in 1H FY22.
On a like-for-like basis, Metals sales tonnes including aluminium declined to
approximately 33,000 tonnes in the first half of FY23, down 12% from the corresponding
period in FY22.
Excluding the impact of our aluminium business, Metals gross profit per tonne
achieved in 1H FY23 was ahead of the corresponding period in FY22.
The Metals segment EBITDA of NZ$67m in 1H FY23 included NZ$23m of contribution
from our aluminium business. Excluding this contribution, Metals EBITDA was
comparable to the NZ$44m recorded in 1H FY22.

Operating Expenditure (OPEX)
OPEX (before depreciation and amortisation) increased NZ$41m (56%) to NZ$114m in
1H FY23 from NZ$73m in 1H FY22. This reflected a combination of the aluminium business
acquired, higher headcount, and inflation on employee costs and other operating costs.
Due to the significant rise in general living costs, Vulcan paid to eligible employees
a living cost support bonus in 1H FY23 to help alleviate the financial pressures on
our team and their families. Travel cost was significantly higher during the period.
Identifiable costs incurred for our aluminium business integration programme in
1H FY23 accounted for approximately NZ$1.5m increase of the overall increase in OPEX.
Excluding the addition of our aluminium business and integration costs, OPEX (before
depreciation and amortisation) increased NZ$11m (15%) to NZ$84m in 1H FY23 from
NZ$73m in 1H FY22.
Cost management is a key discipline embedded in Vulcan’s business culture. With
current market conditions and general business confidence expected to prevail for
a period, Vulcan will further increase the company’s efforts on initiatives to mitigate
the impact of general inflation on our cost base.
Aluminium Business Integration Programme
The progress made in our aluminium business integration since acquisition has
been encouraging.
A joint executive team was established immediately after Vulcan took ownership of
the Ullrich Aluminium business on 1 August 2022. Key staff have also been appointed
to spearhead workstreams and identify opportunities for improvements.
A focus in 1H FY23 has been to familiarise our aluminium team with the Vulcan business
model as well as the company’s culture - our principles and ethos. This is an ongoing
investment of time by our leadership team which is expected to deliver improved
operational and earnings outcomes going forward.
In December 2022, we completed the migration of our NZ aluminium business operating
systems onto Vulcan’s platforms. This is a critical milestone as our team will have greater
visibility and more real-time information to facilitate timely decisions and business
improvement initiatives. We expect our Australian aluminium business to be operating on
Vulcan’s platforms by late-FY23.
Our aluminium product procurement process and product offering are currently being
streamlined which is anticipated to deliver positive benefits in FY24 and beyond.

Cash Flows
Operating cash flows
Cash generated from our operations recorded a net NZ$16m inflow in 1H FY23
compared with NZ$36m achieved in 1H FY22. The cashflow generated from earnings
were applied toward:
• Higher payments for inventory received in 1H FY23
(discussed in the “Balance Sheet” section)
• Higher tax payments in 1H FY23 which were related to terminal payments
for higher FY22 earnings and FY23 provisional tax payments
• Increased funding costs which were due to higher debt level and interest
rate increases
Capital expenditure
Capital expenditure was NZ$11m 1H FY23 compared with NZ$5m in 1H FY22. We expect to
incur between NZ$25m and NZ$27m of capital expenditure in the current financial year.
Acquisition
The cash paid for our acquisition of the Ullrich Aluminium business in 1H FY23 amounted
to NZ$149m including debt assumed as part of the purchase. As agreed with the
vendor and announced previously, a total $20m of deferred settlement payments are
scheduled for 2H FY23 relating to working capital to be reduced.
Distribution
The NZ$49m dividend paid in 1H FY23 reflected the final ordinary dividend of 37.5 NZ
cents per share declared for FY22.

Balance Sheet
Working capital
Net working capital (excluding cash and tax payable) increased to NZ$493m at
31 December 2022 from NZ$343m on 30 June 2022. The addition of our aluminium
business, higher stock level carried to accommodate previous longer lead times for
inventory from suppliers, the timing of payments for stock received, higher unit cost
for products and a decision taken to accommodate future growth led to greater
investment in inventory. Our investment requirement in stock should begin to
normalise in 2H FY23 and FY24.
Debt
Excluding lease liabilities of NZ$287m, Vulcan’s net debt was NZ$390m at 31 December
2022. This represented a NZ$203m increase compared with a net debt position of
NZ$187m excluding NZ$202m of lease liabilities on 30 June 2022. The increase since the
end of FY22 reflects a combination of the debt-funded acquisition of our aluminium
business and the timing of an increase in our working capital during 1H FY23.
At 1.7 times net debt to EBITDA cover and 16.3 times EBIT to net interest cover (twelve
months to 31 December 2022 basis
9
), Vulcan remains well within its banking covenants.
The company’s debt facilities are due to mature between July 2024 and July 2026.
To accommodate our aluminium business acquisition and working capital requirement,
Vulcan increased its total credit facilities from NZ$250m as at the end of FY22 to
NZ$429m in 1H FY23. Vulcan will continue to optimise between the cost of carrying
excess unutilised facilities and having sufficient funding flexibility with reference to credit
market conditions over time.
Funds Employed
Including NZ$176m shareholders’ funds and NZ$287m lease liabilities, Vulcan’s funds
employed were NZ$853m on 31 December 2022. The NZ$278m increase from NZ$575m
on 30 June 2022 reflects a combination of our aluminium business acquisition and
increased working capital requirement.
Dividends
10
The Board has declared a 24.5 NZ cent per share interim dividend. This dividend will be
fully franked at 30% tax rate for Australian resident shareholders, and fully imputed at
28% tax rate for New Zealand resident shareholders. Australian-domiciled shareholders
may benefit from their entitlement to receive an amount in supplementary dividend
payment as an offset against New Zealand non-resident withholding tax payable on
this imputed interim dividend.
Vulcan intends to impute or frank the company’s final dividend for FY23 to the maximum
level possible subject to New Zealand and Australian tax credits available. The company
does not envisage to be able to fully impute or fully frank all future dividends.
Half Year Operating and Financial Review continued
9. Pre-IFRS 16 basis as per agreement with lenders.
10. The company targets a 60%-80% annual distribution on statutory net profit after tax adjusted for significant items approved by the Board and
intends to pay between 40%-50% of the expected annual dividend as interim dividend with the balance of 50%-60% to be paid as a final dividend.

Outlook
As outlined in August 2022 with our full year FY22 results, we expected the present
financial year to be more challenging as the market begins to normalise from peak
demand trading conditions arising from COVID-19, and as economic headwinds
including higher interest rates begin to impact on the wider economy and our business.
We are encouraged by our margin performance in 1H FY23 despite a weaker market
environment. The demand conditions observed in 1H FY23 are not expected to materially
improve in 2H FY23 across the Australian and New Zealand markets. Based on current
monetary policy settings, current business confidence levels and the uncertainty
surrounding New Zealand’s national election in October 2023, there are risks of further
weakening in the New Zealand economy in the short term.
Our aluminium business has performed better in 1H FY23 than our initial expectations.
Our goal is to maintain the present momentum in the remainder of FY23.

Our
principles
Provide an enjoyable workspace
We want our employees to genuinely enjoy the work
that they do. Aside from having well resourced, high
standard facilities, we aim to create a workplace where
everyone feels listened to, valued and supported in
reaching their full potential.
Promote a safe working environment
By nature, working with steel and metals has inherent
risks, therefore ensuring our employees safety is our
primary, ongoing priority. Not only do we want our
employees to get home safely to their families every
night, we also want them to feel psychologically safe
and supported while at work.
Be financially prosperous
This enables us the freedom to invest in our business
and people to ensure we’re thriving, not just surviving.
It gives us the ability to determine our future success
from which everyone can prosper.
Remain ambitious
Ambition is about being courageous enough to try,
knowing that while we may not always succeed, we
will learn, grow, adapt and ultimately find a better way.
Innovation isn’t without risk, and we’re here to support
our employees in stepping outside of the box and
striving for greatness.
Balance the above
We know that balancing the above is critical to
our success.
We believe that by
creating the right
environment we
inspire the delivery
of amazing results.
VULCAN.COVULCAN INTERIM REPORT 2023

Our
ethos
Team first, with respect for the individual
We’ve got an “everyone supports the team, and the
team supports everyone” culture. No one person is
more important than another, therefore we value and
respect everyone’s individual perspectives and ensure
that all decision making reflects what’s best for the
team.
Each person responsible with minimum
misunderstanding
We trust everyone to have complete responsibility and
autonomy within their role. Our employees don’t have
someone looking over their shoulder and should feel
empowered and enabled to do their job to the best
of their ability, in a way that works best for them.
Relaxed, professional and committed
Work should be somewhere our employees enjoy
going every day. We don’t take ourselves too seriously
and our relaxed, yet committed environment ensures
everyone feels comfortable asking questions, receiving
feedback and supporting one another.
Support our local communities
The health and happiness of our people is directly
dependent on the health and happiness of those
around them. These extended networks of friends
and families across New Zealand and Australia, are
our local communities. Through understanding their
difficulties and helping support, uplift and improve the
lives of these people, we hope to foster meaningful and
lasting change.
Clear profit centre goals
Everyone has a clear understanding of their
responsibilities and goals and has the resources and
decision-making authority to achieve them.
At Vulcan we hold
ourselves to the highest
standards in our work,
how we do it and how
we treat one another.

in accordance with New Zealand generally accepted accounting practice (NZ GAAP) as appropriate for Tier 1 for-profit entities’
interim financial statements. The Group financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the New Zealand equivalent
to International Accounting Standard 34 - Interim Financial reporting (NZ IAS 34). In complying with NZ IAS 34, these statements

34 Interim Financial Reporting and have been the subject of review by the auditor, pursuant to NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) Review of
Financial Statements Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity , issued by the External Reporting Board. They do not
include all of the notes normally included in an annual financial report, and should be read in conjunction with the audited
financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2022.
Basis of measurement
The consolidated condensed interim financial statements have been prepared on the basis of historical cost with the exception
of the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities (including derivative instruments) at fair value through profit or loss and
other comprehensive income.
The Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income has been prepared so that all components are stated exclusive
of GST. All items in the Balance Sheet are stated net of GST, with the exception of receivables and payables, which include GST
invoiced. The cash flows from operating activities are presented inclusive of GST.
Functional currency
The consolidated condensed interim financial statements are presented in NZD which is the Company’s functional currency.
All amounts have been rounded to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise stated.

statements are consistent with those used as at 30 June 2022 and 31 December 2021.
Changes to accounting policies
There are no new standards or amendments to standards applicable to the Group for the six months ended 31 December 2022

4. OPERATING SEGMENTS
Vulcan comprises the following operating segments based on internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Chief Operating
Decision Maker (CODM - comprising the CEO and Managing Director, supported by members of the Board of Directors) in
assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources:
Steel business across Australia and New Zealand
Steel distribution – the sale of hollows, merchant products including bars, beams, angles, channels, unprocessed coil and plate;
Plate processing – cutting, drilling, tapping, countersinking and folding of plates to customer requirements;
Coil processing – sheeting & slitting to customer specifications.
Metals business across Australia and New Zealand
Stainless steel – the sale of stainless steel products including hollows, bars, fittings and sheets, and processing services including
cutting, drilling, tapping, countersinking and folding of plates to customer requirements, as well as sheeting & slitting of stainless coil;
Engineering steel - the sale of high-performance steel and metal products, and cutting service to specification.
Aluminium - distribution of internally extruded standard and customised products and third party products including sheet, plate
and coil products.
Reporting is received on at least a monthly basis, and performance is measured based on underlying segment earnings before
interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA). EBITDA is used to measure performance as the CODM believes that such
information is the most relevant in evaluating the results of certain segments relative to other entities that operate within this industry.
The Group has a diverse range of customers from various industries, with no single customer contributing more than 10% of the
Group’s revenue.
Interest income and expenses are not allocated to segments, as decisions are made on a pre-NZ IFRS 16 Leases basis and other interest
income and expense related activities are driven by the central corporate function, which manages the cash position of the Group.
Assets and liabilities are provided to the CODM on a Group basis, and are separately reported with respect to the individual
operating segments.
Sales between segments are eliminated on consolidation. The amounts provided to the CODM with respect to segment revenue
are measured in a manner consistent with that of the financial statements.

7. EMPLOYEE SHARED BASED COMPENSATION
Performance Share Rights Plan
The Company has established a Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP), effective 1 July 2021, to assist in the motivation, retention and reward of
eligible employees. The LTIP is designed to align the interests of employees with the interests of Shareholders by providing an opportunity for
certain employees to receive an equity interest in the Company.
The Board may determine the individual employees who are eligible to participate in the LTIP from time to time. Determination of eligibility is
at the Board’s sole and absolute discretion.
Under the LTIP, the Company may grant Performance Share Rights (PSR) to a Participant. Each PSR unit entitles the holder (at no cost to the
Participant) to one ordinary share in the Company. Unless otherwise stated, PSR grants are to be made annually on 1 July.
All incentives have a 3-year vesting period. The LTIs are split into 2 components (“Tranche 1” and “Tranche 2”). The vesting criteria for Tranche
1 is based on Return on Capital Employed (“ROCE”) thresholds while Tranche 2 is based on the Company’s total shareholder return (“TSR”)
ranking relative to a “Benchmark Group”. For both tranches the individual must remain employed by the Company.
The Benchmark Group comprise all companies in the ASX 300 index (excluding mining, energy and financial companies). The measurement
of both the Company’s and benchmark TSRs will be the gross return based upon any capital gains/(losses) and the cash component of
dividends only (i.e., excluding returns attributable to franking credits). The share price returns of the Company and/or the Benchmark Group
will also be adjusted for:
- The impact of bonus issues and /or capital reconstructions; and
- Referenced to the 20-day Volume Weighted Average Price (“VWAP”) of the Company’s share price prior to the testing date.
The fair value of PSRs are recognised as an expense in the Statement of Profit or Loss over the vesting period of the rights with a
corresponding entry to the share based payments reserve.
An additional 372,417 PSR’s (FY23 Grant) were granted in the current period with a combined face value of $2,495,000. Grants previously
issued were the FY22 Grant of 391,622 PSR’s with a combined face value of $2,945,000.
The total expense recognised in the period to 31 December 2022 in relation to equity settled share based payments was $621,683 (2021:
$300,000). No rights were exercised during the year.
8. IMPAIRMENT TESTING AND INTANGIBLES
The annual impairment test is performed as at 30 June each year. Goodwill is considered to be impaired if the carrying amount of the
relevant cash generating units (“CGUs”) exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of a CGU is the higher of its fair value less
costs of disposal (“FVLCOD) and its value-in-use (“VIU”). A VIU approach is used to estimate the recoverable amount of the CGU to which
each goodwill component is allocated.
There are no indicators of impairment at 31 December 2022.

11. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
NZ IFRS 13 for financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value requires disclosure of the fair value measurements by level from the fair
value hierarchy, described as follows:
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; or
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (prices) or indirectly
(derived from prices); or
Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
All the Group’s financial instruments held at fair value have been measured at the fair value measurement hierarchy of level 2 (2021: level 2).
The carrying value of the Group’s financial assets and liabilities approximate the fair values.
12. CAPITAL COMMITMENTS
Total capital expenditure contracted as at balance date but not provided for in the accounts was $4,732,423 (30 June 2022: $4,382,445).
13. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
There is a bank guarantee with National Australia Bank Limited of $10.6m (30 June 2022: $11.0m) over property in Australia.
14. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Company has related party relationships with its controlled entities and with key management personnel.
Related party transactions continue to include key executive remuneration, lease payments on the buildings and dividends paid by
the Group to its directors and shareholders. In addition to this, a long term incentive plan has been entered into by the Group for its key
management personnel which includes two executive directors. Refer to note 7 for details on this arrangement.

15. ACQUISITION OF SUBSIDIARY
On 22 July 2022, the Company signed a conditional sale and purchase agreement with Gilbert Ullrich, the founder owner of Ullrich Aluminium
Company Limited (“Ullrich”) to acquire 100% of the company. Key conditions of the sale and purchase agreement were satisfied on 1 August
2022 and the Company took control of Ullrich from that date.
Ullrich is a major integrated distributor of industrial aluminium products in Australasia with a large sales network, extrusion facilities and
fabrication operations. The acquisition of Ullrich significantly adds to the network reach and scale of the Group and supports the Group’s
growth strategy.
The amounts recognised in respect of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are as set out in the table below.
Consideration transferred
The acquisition of Ullrich was settled in cash amounting to $107,750,000 with a further $20,000,000 payable by 30 June 2023.
Acquisition-related costs amounting to $793,617 are not included as part of consideration transferred and have been recognised
as an expense in the consolidated statement of profit or loss, as part of administration expenses.
Identifiable net assets
The fair value of the trade and other receivables acquired as part of the business combination amounted to $34,247,131 with a gross
contractual value of $35,509,898. The best estimate at acquisition date of the contractual cash flows not to be collected is $1,262,767.
Goodwill
The calculation of goodwill of $291,802 arising from the acquisition consists of growth expectations, expected future profitability, the skills
and expertise of Ullrich’s workforce and expected cost synergies. Goodwill has been allocated to the metals division and is not expected
to be deductible for income tax purposes.

have been $662,827,475 and estimated Group profit before tax would have been $79,075,503.
16. EVENTS OCCURRING AFTER BALANCE DATE
On 14 February 2023, the Directors approved an interim dividend of 24.5 cents per share totalling $32.2m. The dividend record date is

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REVIEW REPORT
TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF VULCAN STEEL LIMITED
Conclusion
We have reviewed the consolidated condensed interim financial statements of Vulcan Steel Limited (‘the Company’) and
its subsidiaries (‘the Group’) on pages 16 to 25 which comprise the consolidated condensed interim balance sheet as at
31 December 2022, and the consolidated condensed interim statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income,
consolidated condensed interim statement of changes in equity and consolidated interim statement of cash flows for the
six months ended on 31 December 2022, and condensed notes to the interim consolidated financial statements and other
explanatory information.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim financial statements of the
Group do not present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as at 31 December 2022 and its financial
performance and cash flows for the 6 months ended on that date in accordance with NZ IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting
and IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.
Basis for Conclusion
We conducted our review in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) Review of Financial Statements Performed by the Independent
Auditor of the Entity (‘NZ SRE 2410 (Revised)’). Our responsibilities are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Review
of the Interim Financial Statements section of our report.
We are independent of the Group in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements in New Zealand relating to the audit of
the annual financial statements, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.
Other than in our capacity as auditor, we have no relationship with or interests in Vulcan Steel Limited or its subsidiaries.
Directors’ responsibilities for the interim financial statements
The directors are responsible on behalf of the Company for the preparation and fair presentation of the interim financial
statements in accordance with NZ IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and for such internal
control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation and fair presentation of the interim financial statements
that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the review of the interim financial statements
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the interim financial statements based on our review. NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) requires
us to conclude whether anything has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim financial statements, taken
as a whole, are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with NZ IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and IAS 34 Interim
Financial Reporting.
A review of the interim financial statements in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) is a limited assurance engagement.
We perform procedures, primarily consisting of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting
matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. The procedures performed in a review are substantially less than
those performed in an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand) and consequently
do not enable us to obtain assurance that we might identify in an audit. Accordingly we do not express an audit opinion on the
interim financial statements.
Restriction on use
This report is made solely to the company’s shareholders, as a body. Our review has been undertaken so that we might state to the
company’s shareholders those matters we are required to state to them in a review 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 company’s shareholders as a body,
for our engagement, for this report, or for the conclusions we have formed.
