Request for trading halt: ANZ Group Holdings Limited
(ASX Code: ANZ, NZX Code: ANZ)

We request a trading halt to be applied to our securities (ANZ) under NZX Listing Rule
9.9.1(a) and set out below details of the request as per the rules of NZX. The relevant
announcements are expected to be released prior to the commencement of ASX trading
and thus an ASX trading halt is not being sought.
We would like the trading halt to commence from pre-market open at 8:30am NZ time
(6:30am Melbourne time) on 7 May 2024.
Reasons for trading halt:
ANZ intends to commence lodging its scheduled Half Year Results announcement and
related documents (the Documents) with ASX on 7 May 2024 around 9:30 – 10:00am
NZ time (7:30 – 8: 00am Melbourne time). ANZ must receive formal acknowledgement
of the release of the Documents by ASX before the same can be released through MAP
under the ANZ ticker code.
Given the different time zones in Australia and New Zealand, it is likely that the NZX
Equity Market will have opened before the Documents can be released through MAP.
ANZ considers that a trading halt is desirable to ensure all market participants can trade
on a fully informed basis, which ensures a fair, orderly and transparent market.
How long we want the trading halt to last:
We would like the trading halt to remain in place until ANZ advises that the Documents
have been released under the ANZ ticker code. The trading halt is required due to ANZ’s
dual-listing on the ASX and NZX and the application of the ASX and NZX Listing Rules.
The event we expect to happen that will end the trading halt:
The trading halt can end once ANZ notifies NZ RegCo that the Documents have been
released through MAP.
We confirm that we are not aware of any reason why the trading halt should not be
granted.
Please contact me on +61 3 8654 7597 if you have any queries.
Yours sincerely


Simon Pordage
Company Secretary
