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.

• Revenue of NZ$638m, up 38% from NZ$463m in 1H FY22

• 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

12

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.

Significant accounting policies

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.

The following is an analysis of the Group’s results by reportable segment:

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.

Ullrich’s contribution to the Group results

Ullrich contributed $134,350,295 revenue and $20,552,887 to the Group’s profit before tax for the period between the date of acquisition and

the reporting date.

If the acquisition of Ullrich had been completed on the first day of the financial year, estimated Group revenues for the full half-year would

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

10 March 2023 and payment will occur on 6 April 2023. The dividend will be fully franked and fully imputed.

No other matters or circumstances have arisen since the end of the financial period which significantly affect the company, the results

of those operations, or the state of affairs of the company in future financial years.

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.
