2023 Nine Month Results
NZX AND MEDIA RELEASE
16 August 2023
UNAUDITED FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THE NINE MONTHS TO 30 JUNE 2023
Napier Port well positioned for cargo recovery in FY24
Napier Port (NZX.NPH), the freight gateway for the central and lower North Island, today reports reduced
earnings for the nine months ended 30 June 2023 as the impact of Cyclone Gabrielle in February
weighed on exports from our region.
The company also reports strategies focused on yield management and pricing adjustments linked to
investments in infrastructure and additional customer services have supported revenue. They also
position the company well for an anticipated recovery in cargo volumes in the new financial year.
“Off the back of a buoyant first half, we anticipated Cyclone Gabrielle would reduce third quarter export
volumes and earnings, However, adverse weather in June and July that limited access to our wharves
represented a further challenge to our nine months result,” Napier Port Chief Executive Todd Dawson
said.
“The lasting effects of the cyclone on cargo volumes are expected to persist into the fourth quarter, but
our confidence of a step up in cargo in the new financial year is growing given the progress of the
recovery efforts we are seeing in the region.
“Regional infrastructure rebuilding is well underway, assisted by the ongoing financial commitment and
prioritisation by government. We are particularly encouraged by the progress made by key customers
affected by the cyclone.
“The strong forward bookings for the upcoming cruise season suggest it could be our busiest on record.
Interest from shipping lines meanwhile remains high, which is a measure of confidence in Napier Port’s
long-term volume growth potential,” Mr Dawson said.
“Meanwhile, prudent financial management focused on the recovery of rising costs, our investments in
capacity and new services coupled with our continuing focus on efficiency, value and customer service
means we are well positioned to reap the benefits for the expected ramp up in volumes.”
HIGHLIGHTS
3rd Quarter to 30 June 2023
• Revenue for the third quarter fell 19.5% to $27.7 million from $34.4 million in the same period

Result from operating activities is an alternative non-NZ GAAP measure and represents core underlying operating earnings. For
further information please refer to Note 24 of the 2022 Annual Consolidated Financial Statements and the Supplemental Selected
Financial Information.
2
Underlying net profit after tax is an alternative non-NZ GAAP measure that comprises reported net profit after tax adjusted for
certain non-recurring, non-core and abnormal, and unrealised fair value revaluation items to provide consistency and
comparability of the financial information over the periods presented. For further information please refer to the Supplemental
Selected Financial Information.
• Cruise revenue of $5.3 million on the return of cruise vessels in the period
• The result from operating activities decreased 1.4% to $29.3 million from $29.8 million as the
return of cruise ship calls and revenue yield increases were offset by the post-cyclone trade
volume declines and cost inflation
• Underlying net profit after tax decreased 34.3% to $9.3 million from $14.2 million as a result of
increased depreciation and finance costs following the completion of the Te Whiti wharf
investment
• Reported net profit after tax decreased 19.5% to $12.9 million from $16.0 million
Earnings guidance
• Unchanged guidance for an underlying result from operating activities for the year to 30
September 2023 of between $34.5 million and $36.5 million. This guidance excludes insurance
recoveries (of which $3.5 million has been recognised to date)
FINANCIAL RESULTS
Container services
Container services revenue for the quarter of $17.4 million decreased 22.1% from $22.3 million in the
same period last year. For the nine months, container services revenue decreased by 1% to $51.9
million from $52.5 million as decreased container volumes were largely offset by higher revenue per
TEU
3
.
Average revenue per TEU for the nine months increased 9.9% to $297 from $270 in the same period
last year. This was driven by a number of factors including tariff increases, fuel and insurance cost
recoveries and increased utilisation of depot and storage services.
Container volumes for the quarter fell 31.6% to 56,000 TEU as the after-effects of Cyclone Gabrielle
were felt across nearly all containerised cargo types, and this fall in volume was exacerbated by
unexpected weather and swell events during June. For the nine months, container volumes decreased
10% to 175,000 TEU from 194,000 TEU in the same period last year.
Bulk cargo
Bulk cargo revenue for the quarter decreased 17.9% to $9.4 million from $11.4 million in the same period
last year, as bulk volumes decreased 28.6% from 1.0 million tonnes to 0.7 million tonnes. For the nine
months, bulk cargo revenue decreased by 2% to $30 million from $30.6 million as volumes decreased
16.4% to 2.3 million tonnes from 2.7 million tonnes in the same period a year ago.
Log export volume for the quarter decreased by 0.2 million tonnes, or 21.4%, and for the nine-month
period decreased by 16.1% to 1.8 million tonnes from 2.1 million tonnes due to adverse weather,
damaged roading infrastructure and subdued log export market conditions.
Average revenue per tonne for the nine months increased 17.3% to $13.26 from $11.31 in the same
period last year, driven by yield increases and an increased contribution from our debarking operation.
Cruise services
The cruise season completed in April with 64 vessel calls and nearly 100,000 passengers visiting the
region, contributing $5.3 million to revenue.
Operating results
The result from operating activities for the third quarter decreased 44% to $7.5 million from $13.3 million
in the prior year period, as the post-cyclone third quarter revenue reduction of $6.7 million exceeded the
fall in operating expenses of $0.8 million.
3
Twenty-foot equivalent container unit
For the nine months, the result from operating activities decreased 1.4% to $29.3 million from $29.8
million in the prior year period as higher revenue arising from the return of cruise ship calls and revenue
yield increases were offset by lower trade volumes and continued cost inflation pressures.
During the third quarter, Napier Port recognised $3.5 million of insurance income receivable related to
progress claims for business interruption losses incurred following the Cyclone Gabrielle event during
February and as a result of supporting correspondence with insurers.
Underlying net profit after tax for the third quarter, after adjusting for unrealised fair value movements
on investment properties and Cyclone Gabrielle related net insurance income, fell by 73.4% to $1.9
million from $7 million in the same period last year.
For the nine months this decreased by 34.3% to $9.3 million from $14.2 million as a result of increased
depreciation and finance costs recognised in the income statement following the completion of the Te
Whiti wharf investment in the prior financial year.
Reported net profit after tax for the third quarter fell 40.2% to $4.2 million from $7.0 million in the same
period last year, and for the nine months decreased 19.5% to $12.9 million from $16.0 million.
CYCLONE GABRIELLE TRADE IMPACT UPDATE
Six months post-cyclone, all road access to Napier Port is open and KiwiRail have indicated a mid-
September reinstatement of the rail line from Hastings to Napier Port.
Once the rail line is fully operational, we expect pulp, meat and log cargoes from the central North Island
to revert back to rail mode, with a positive effect on volumes.
Pan Pac’s timber operations are expected to restart in the first quarter of our next financial year, and
pulp processing by the second quarter, with a ramp up towards normal production levels over the
subsequent quarters.
Ravensdown’s fertiliser plant in Awatoto restarted manufacturing operations in July.
The forestry sector has seen some reduction in capacity however forest-based production has been re-
established. Log volumes are steady and we are receiving some additional windthrown logs from the
central North Island. Export market conditions for logs remains subdued.
The extent of pipfruit areas that will require remediation and replanting to restore production will become
clearer in the Spring when fruit buds appear.
CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
Over the nine-month period Napier Port has invested $11 million in capital assets, including mobile
plant, planned site maintenance and post-cyclone restorative dredging.
Cash flows from operating activities increased by $7.8m, or 31.2%, to $33.0 million from $25.1 million
in the same period last year.
Napier Port ended June 2023 with total drawn debt of $132 million and undrawn bank facilities of $48
million, and with a Debt to EBITDA ratio of 3.09 times.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED 30 JUNE 2023
1. REPORTING ENTITY
The interim financial statements presented are those
of Napier Port Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries
(together “the Group”). Napier Port Holdings Limited is
incorporated under the Companies Act 1993 and domiciled
in New Zealand. Napier Port Holdings Limited’s shares are
publicly traded on the New Zealand Stock Exchange (NZX)
and has bonds quoted on the NZX Debt Market (NZDX).
2. BASIS OF PREPARATION
STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE
The interim financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with New Zealand equivalents to International
Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting
(NZ IAS 34), and International Accounting Standard 34,
Interim Financial Reporting. The Group is a for-profit entity
for NZ GAAP purposes. These interim financial statements
do not include all the information normally included
in an annual financial report. Accordingly, these should
be read in conjunction with the Group's annual financial
statements for the year ended 30 September 2022.
BASIS OF MEASUREMENT
The interim financial statements have been prepared on a
historical cost basis, except for sea defences, investment
properties and derivative financial instruments, which are
measured at fair value. They are presented in New Zealand
Dollars (NZD) and all values are rounded to the nearest
thousand dollars ($'000), unless otherwise stated.
3. SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those
followed in the preparation of the Group's consolidated
financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2022.
4. UNCERTAINTIES, ESTIMATES
AND JUDGEMENTS
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity
with NZ IAS 34 requires management to make judgements,
estimates and assumptions that affect the application
of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ
from these estimates.
5. THE EFFECTS OF
CYCLONE GABRIELLE
AND INSURANCE MATTERS
During February 2023, Cyclone Gabrielle struck
New Zealand causing widespread damage and disruption
to the Hawke's Bay region and its infrastructure.
Whilst Napier Port did not experience significant property
damage, many cargo customers of Napier Port have
experienced damage and reduced output, which impacts
Napier Port's trading. The economic consequences of this
event is negatively impacting and increases uncertainty
regarding the Group’s future trading results.
The Group had an insurance policy in place at the time
of the cyclone that its lead insurer has confirmed,
in principle, will respond to the material damage and
business interruption losses of the Group arising from
Cyclone Gabrielle, subject to the terms and limitations
of the insurance policy. The Group expects to submit
claims to its insurers as and when it determines its
recoverable losses. Under the Group's policy, the relevant
business interuption indemnity period is 18 months
following the loss event. The Group's claims are subject
to review and adjustment by the Group's insurers.
The Group's policy is to recognise insurance recovery
income when it is virtually certain insurance proceeds
will be received and the amount receivable can be
reliably estimated.
The Group has received, subsequent to the balance sheet
date, written confirmation from its insurers regarding
an interim non-specific partial payment to be paid of
$3.5m relating to the Group's progress insurance claim
for business interruption losses sustained since the
cyclone event. This sum has been recorded within Other
Income and Expenses (note 7) in the Consolidated Income
Statement for the nine-months ended 30 June 2023
and within Trade and Other Receivables within
the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position
as at 30 June 2023.

Revenue is measured based on the service price specified in the relevant tariffs or specific customer contract.
The contract price for the services performed reflects the value transferred to the customer.
PROPERTY OPERATIONS
Investment property lease income is recognised on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease term.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S
REVIEW REPORT
To the shareholders of Napier Port Holdings Limited’s interim financial statements
for the nine months ended 30 June 2023
The Auditor-General is the auditor of Napier Port Holding’s
Limited (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (together the
“Group”). The Auditor-General has appointed me, Stuart
Mutch, using the staff and resources of Ernst & Young,
to carry out the review of the interim financial statements
of the Group on his behalf.
CONCLUSION
We have reviewed the interim financial statements of the
Group on pages 1 to 10, which comprise the consolidated
statement of financial position as at 30 June 2023
and the consolidated income statement, statement of
comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity
and statement of cash flows for the nine months ended on
that date, and the notes, including a summary of significant
accounting policies 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 30 June 2023, and
its financial performance and cash flows for the nine months
ended on that date, in accordance with New Zealand
Equivalent to International Accounting Standard 34:
Interim Financial Reporting and International Accounting
Standard 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 independence requirements of the Auditor-General’s
Auditing Standards, which incorporate the independence
requirements of Professional and Ethical Standard 1
International Code of Ethics for Assurance Practitioners
issued by the New Zealand Auditing and Assurance
Standards Board.
Other than in our capacity as auditor, we have no
relationship with, or interests, in the Group.
DIRECTORS’ RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE INTERIM
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Directors are responsible, on behalf of the Group,
for the preparation and fair presentation of these interim
financial statements in accordance with New Zealand
Equivalent to International Accounting Standard 34:
Interim Financial Reporting and International Accounting
Standard 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.
The Directors are also responsible for the publication
of the interim financial statements, whether in printed
or electronic form.
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
New Zealand Equivalent to International Accounting
Standard 34: Interim Financial Reporting and International
Accounting Standard 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
does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would
become aware of all significant matters that might be
identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express
an audit opinion on these interim financial statements.

1.1 Description of adjustments
In determining the use of adjustments, the Directors have considered only those items that they
believe are required to ensure consistency and comparability of the financial information over the
periods presented.
The adjustments that Napier Port considers appropriate are explained below:
(i) removal of unrealised fair value movements on investment properties as this relates to
non-core activity; and
(ii) removal of expenses and insurance income attributable to the extraordinary Cyclone
Gabrielle event that occurred during February 2023.
Insurance income receivable for insured business interruption losses indemnifies the
Group for reduced operating profits following Cyclone Gabrielle. The recognition of
insurance income does not necessarily match the accounting period of the reduced
operating profits, as this income recognition is determined according to the Group’s
accounting policy for recognising insurance recovery income and is dependent upon the
timing of the lodgement of claims with insurers and the timing of their review processes.
The adjustment removes this timing effect and the potential variability in income
recognition.
