measures presented by other entities.

Chair’s Report 2023

On behalf of the Board of Directors of Delegat Group Limited, I am pleased to present its operating and

financial results for the six months ended 31 December 2022.

The Group presents its financial statements in accordance with the New Zealand equivalents to

International Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS).

To provide further insight into the Group’s underlying operational performance, the Group has also

included in this report an Operating Performance Report. This Operating Performance Report excludes

the impact of fair value adjustments required under NZ IFRS for grapes and derivative financial

instruments. As a fully integrated winemaking and sales operation, Operating Profit includes the fair

value adjustment in respect of grapes when packaged wine is sold rather than on harvest of the grapes,

and the fair value adjustment on derivative financial instruments when these foreign exchange contracts

and interest rate swaps are realised.

The Group has included a reconciliation of Operating Profit to Reported Profit which eliminates from

each line in the Statement of Financial Performance the impact of these fair value adjustments.

Operating Performance

An Operating NPAT of $40.2 million was generated compared to $39.5 million for the same period in

the previous year. Operating EBIT of $62.2 million is $2.6 million higher than the same period last year

(refer to table 1).

3. Operating Expenses are before fair value movements on derivative financial instruments (if losses).

4. Operating EBIT, EBITDA and NPAT are before any fair value adjustments.

Table 1

Operating Performance

1

Delegat achieved Operating Revenue of $198.8 million on record global case sales of 1,970,000 in the six
month period. Revenue is up $20.1 million on the same period last year primarily due to the favourable

impact of a 4% increase in global case sales, price increases implemented in the United Kingdom, Ireland

and New Zealand, and a favourable impact of foreign exchange.

The Group’s case sales performance and foreign currency rates achieved are detailed in table 2.

Operating Gross Profit is up 10% on the same period last year. Operating expenses (before NZ IFRS

adjustments) at $33.4 million are $6.2 million higher compared to the same period in the previous

year, primarily associated with the unfavourable impact of exchange on overseas in-market costs, the

resumption of normal sales and marketing activities post Covid-19 disruptions, headcount increases and

software as a service implementation costs for the Group’s new Enterprise Reporting System.

NZ IFRS Fair Value Adjustments

In accordance with NZ IFRS, the Group is required to account for certain of their assets at ‘fair value’

rather than at historic cost. All movements in these fair values are reflected in and impact the Statement

of Financial Performance. The Group records adjustments in respect of two significant items at the half-

year reporting date, as detailed in table 3:

• Harvest Provision Release (Grapes) – Inventory is valued at market value, rather than costs incurred,

at harvest. Any fair value adjustment is excluded from Operating Performance for the year, by creating

a Harvest Provision. This Harvest Provision is then released through Cost of Sales when inventory is

sold in subsequent years. This represents the reversal of prior periods’ fair value adjustments in respect

of biological produce as finished wine is sold in subsequent years. This has resulted in an adjustment

of $9.6 million for the period (December 2021: adjustment of $7.1 million);

• Derivative financial instruments held to hedge the Group’s foreign currency and interest rate exposure.

The mark-to-market movement of these instruments at balance date resulted in a fair value write-up

of $10.4 million (December 2021: write-up of $3.2 million).

Reconciliation of Reporting to Operating Performance
Accounting for all fair value adjustments under NZ IFRS, the Group’s reported unaudited financial

performance for the six months ended 31 December 2022 is reconciled to Operating Profit as detailed

in table 4.

Cash Flow

The Group generated Cash Flows from Operations of $35.3 million in the current half-year, which is

an increase of $15.1 million on the same period last year. The increase is due to strong cash collections

from customers, which has more than offset higher payments to suppliers. A total of $31.7 million was

paid for additional property, plant and equipment during the period, including vineyard developments

in New Zealand, and development of the Hawke’s Bay and Marlborough wineries, which will provide

earnings growth into the years ahead. The Group distributed $20.2 million to shareholders in dividends.

Net proceeds from borrowings of $62.4 million were drawn down during the six month period.

The Group has a $373 million syndicated Senior debt facility, having secured an additional $40 million

facility in July 2022 to finance the purchase of the previously leased Dashwood vineyard, located in

Marlborough’s Awatere Valley. The Group is well positioned to fund its current operations as well as

future capital investment in both New Zealand and Australia. The Group’s net debt at 31 December

2022 amounted to $305.8 million, an increase of $38.8 million compared with the last half year and well

within the Group’s long term bank debt facilities. The increase in net debt is entirely attributed to the new

facility for the vineyard purchase.

CHAIR’S REPORT

Notes:

1. Biological Produce (Grapes) is the difference between market value paid for grapes versus the cost to grow grapes.

The Harvest Provision is reversed and only recognised when the finished wine is sold.

2. n/m means not meaningful.

Impact of Cyclone Gabrielle
Delegat is fortunate to have not incurred significant damage from Cyclone Gabrielle, the storm which

caused widespread damage across the Hawke’s Bay region in February 2023. The winery and vineyards,

while incurring some surface flooding, have not been significantly affected. More importantly, our

employees and their families in the region are safe and our priority remains supporting their recovery

efforts. The Board would like to acknowledge the Hawke’s Bay team for their collective resilience, team

spirit and positivity.

Looking Forward

The Group is on target to achieve global case sales for the full year of 3,649,000 cases, up 9% on last

year. Based on the prevailing exchange rates, the Group forecasts the 2023 Operating Profit guidance in

the range of $59 million to $62 million.

The financial statements presented are those of Delegat Group Limited and its subsidiaries (the Group). Delegat Group

Limited is a company limited by shares, incorporated and domiciled in New Zealand and registered under the Companies

Act 1993. The Parent shares are publicly traded on the New Zealand Stock Exchange.

The financial statements for the Group for the six months ended 31 December 2022 were authorised for issue in

accordance with a resolution of the Directors on 24 February 2023.

Basis of Preparation

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

New Zealand (NZ GAAP), the requirements of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013, and NZ IAS 34: Interim Financial

Reporting. Accounting policies applied in these interim financial statements comply with New Zealand equivalents to

International Financial Reporting Standards, and other applicable Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS) as applicable

to the Group as a profit-oriented entity.

The interim financial statements are presented in New Zealand Dollars, rounded to the nearest thousand. They are

prepared on a historical cost basis except for derivative financial instruments and biological produce which have been

measured at fair value.

The preparation of the interim financial statements in conformity with NZ IAS 34 requires the Group to make judgements,

estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income

and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors

that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may vary from these estimates. The estimates

and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the

period in which the estimates are revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of revision and future

periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Group uses derivative financial instruments such as forward currency contracts and options to economically hedge

its risk associated with foreign currency and interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk. Such financial instruments

are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into, and are subsequently

remeasured to fair value at balance date. In estimating the fair value of the derivative financial instruments the Group

uses level 2 inputs of the fair value measurement hierarchy. The Group’s derivative financial instruments fall into level

2 of the fair value measurement hierarchy because their fair value is determined using inputs, other than quoted prices

included in level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly as prices or indirectly (derived from prices).

The fair values are derived through valuation techniques that maximise the use of observable market data where it is

available and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates.

Changes in Accounting Policies

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year. Refer to the published financial

statements for the year ended 30 June 2022 for a complete listing of the Group accounting policies.

2. Segmental Reporting

The Group reviews its operational performance based upon the management and the geographic areas in which their

customers are based. Financial information which is available to management in order to assess segment performance

and investment opportunities is presented on the same basis. In accordance with NZ IFRS 8: Operating Segments this

forms the basis of presentation for Segment Reporting and is the format adopted below:

Delegat Limited (Delegat) is party to vineyard leases and has interests in freehold land and winery infrastructure which

allows the company to grow, harvest and make finished wine to be marketed, distributed and sold into the Super Premium

wine markets. Delegat sells and markets its product through a combination of subsidiary companies based overseas or

to customers and distributors directly in the New Zealand, Canadian, Asian and Pacific Island markets. Delegat Australia

Pty Limited, Delegat Europe Limited and Delegat USA, Inc. act as distributors and assist in the marketing of product in

their respective geographic regions. Wines are sold all year round to all regions and the Group considers there is no

significant variation in revenues throughout the year.

The Group implements appropriate transfer pricing regimes within the operating segments on an arm’s length basis in a

manner similar to transactions with third parties.

Management monitors the operating results of its business units separately for the purpose of making resource allocations

and performance assessments. Segment performance is evaluated based on operating profit or loss, which may be

measured differently from operating profit or loss in the consolidated financial statements as segment reporting is based

upon internal management reports. The main differences are a result of some deferred tax balances being recognised

upon consolidation not being allocated to individual subsidiaries. Also intercompany stock margin eliminations are

managed on a group basis and are not allocated to operating segments.
