We position ourselves to maximise the value in sales

A proven history of adjusting our balance sheet as needed
thl and Apollo weathered the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic without raising capital, by reducing new fleet capex and
selling the rental fleet
Debt is typically invested in increasing
assets and earnings by growing the fleet
that generates rental income
The fleet has proven itself to be mobile,
liquid and to generally hold unrealised
equity above the book value
History shows that this gives thl the
flexibility to manage debt in response to
demand shifts – as evidenced during the
COVID-19 pandemic

We have a positive outlook for the rentals
business
•The intake of rental hire days into the upcoming 2024/2025 high season is tracking
significantly ahead of the prior year
•The current intake reflects a single digit percentage decline in average yield which is in
line with our expectations
•The intake of rental hire days for FY25 are tracking in line with the prior year
•The current intake reflects a small single digit percentage decline in average yield which
is in line with our expectations
•The intake of rental hire days for the 2025 high season shows strong growth on the prior
year
•The greater mix of international to domestic bookings has had a negative impact on
average yields
•The intake of rental hire days for the 2025 high season shows growth on the prior year.
•Average yields are currently single digit percentage down due to a greater number of
bookings on early bird discount rates
•The intake of rental hire days for the 2025 high season shows growth on the prior year
•Average yields are holding flat
12
Outlook
•As per the recent market update,
expectations for NPAT in FY24 are
between $50M and $53M
•Current expectations for NPAT in FY25
are that it will be below the FY23 Pro
Forma NPAT of $77.1M
•Based on a positive rental growth
outlook and a recovery in the vehicle
sales market to normal conditions, thl
has retained the goal of $100M NPAT
in FY26
