NZX AND MEDIA RELEASE

UNAUDITED FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THE NINE MONTHS TO 30 JUNE 2024
Napier Port earnings recovery continues in the third
quarter
Napier Port (NZX.NPH), the freight gateway for the central and lower North Island, today reports robust
earnings growth for the nine months to the end of June 2024.
HIGHLIGHTS
3rd Quarter to 30 June 2024
• Revenue for the third quarter increased 27.9% to $36.5 million from $28.6 million in the same
period last year, following volume increases of 7.4% for bulk cargo and 29.6% for container
services
• The result from operating activities
1
increased 64.3% to $12.3 million from $7.5 million
• Underlying net profit after tax
2
increased 156.7% to $4.8 million from $1.9 million
9 Months to 30 June 2024
• Revenue for the nine months rose 15.5% to $107.1 million from $92.7 million in the same period
last year and was led by significant growth in export log and cruise revenue
• The result from operating activities increased 35.1% to $39.6 million from $29.3 million as
higher revenue was supported by effective cost management
• Underlying net profit after tax increased 70% to $15.9 million from $9.3 million
• Reported net profit after tax increased 48.2% to $19.1 million from $12.9 million
Earnings guidance
• Unchanged guidance for an underlying result from operating activities for the year to 30
September 2024 of between $50 million and $53 million, excluding insurance recoveries (of
which $7.2 million has been recognised during the financial year to date)
Chief Executive Todd Dawson said: “Today’s result reinforces the continuing recovery of regional trade
following Cyclone Gabrielle in February 2023.
“Trade for the nine months has been driven by strong log exports, cruise vessel calls, and the bounce
back in containerised exports including fresh produce, apples, meat, and wood pulp and timber. As
anticipated, as cargo volumes return our strategies focused on yield management linked to investments
in infrastructure and customer services, and cost management are demonstrating strong operating
leverage and earnings growth.
1
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 2023 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.

“While the regional export-led trade recovery continues post cyclone, most regional businesses
continue to face a challenging economic environment. We note the current challenges across NZ’s
major manufacturing industries due to abnormally high energy costs. This has led to two of our largest
cargo customers, WPI and Pan Pac, to undertake temporary shutdowns of either all or part of their
timber and pulp processing facilities. During this period, we expect both companies will take the
opportunity to undertake repairs and maintenance and that we will continue to receive and pack timber
through our Port Pack operation, and to receive logs for export from Pan Pac.”
FINANCIAL RESULTS
Container services
Container services revenue for the quarter of $24.3 million increased 33.4% from $18.2 million in the
same period last year. For the nine months, container services revenue increased by 6% to $57.9 million
from $54.6 million as higher revenue per TEU
3
offset lower container volumes.
Average revenue per TEU for the nine months increased 8.5% to $339 from $313 in the same period
last year. This was driven by container mix, tariff increases, cost recoveries and increased utilisation of
other container services, partially offset by lower Port Pack volumes.
Container volumes for the quarter increased 29.6% to 72,000 TEU as a result of the continuing regional
recovery following the product losses caused by Cyclone Gabrielle in the prior year comparative period.
For the nine months, container volumes decreased 2.3% to 171,000 TEU from 175,000 TEU in the
same period last year.
Bulk cargo
Bulk cargo revenue for the quarter increased 18.9% to $11.1 million from $9.4 million in the same period
last year, as bulk volumes increased 7.4% from 0.7 million tonnes to 0.8 million tonnes. For the nine
months, bulk cargo revenue increased by 24.6% to $37.3 million from $30 million as volumes increased
17.1% to 2.6 million tonnes from 2.3 million tonnes in the same period a year ago.
Log export volume for the quarter increased by 4.6% to 0.6 million tonnes, and for the nine-month period
increased by 24.9% to 2.2 million tonnes from 1.8 million tonnes. The strong volume momentum of the
first half year slowed in the third quarter, in line with anticipated decreases in volumes from central north
island windthrown forests and unprocessed logs sourced from Pan Pac.
Average revenue per tonne for the nine months increased 6.3% to $14.10 from $13.26 in the same
period last year, driven by yield increases and an increased contribution from our debarking operation,
partially offset by fewer vessel calls.
Cruise services
The cruise season completed in April with 89 vessel calls and nearly 140,000 passengers visiting the
region, contributing $9.1 million to revenue. This compares to 64 vessel calls contributing $5.3 million
to revenue in the prior comparative period.
There are currently 85 cruise vessel bookings for the upcoming 2025 season, and we note industry
expectations of a further reduced Australasian cruise season with fewer vessels and port calls for 2026.
Operating results
The result from operating activities for the third quarter increased 64.3% to $12.3 million from $7.5
million in the prior year period, as the third quarter revenue increase of $8 million exceeded the increase
in operating expenses of $3.2 million.
The result from operating activities for the nine months increased 35.1% to $39.6 million from $29.3
million. Positive operating leverage was demonstrated with higher bulk and cruise volumes driving
higher revenue of $14.4 million, and effective cost management limiting the increase in operating
3
Twenty-foot equivalent container unit
3
expenses to $4.1 million. Increased operating expenses resulted from higher insurance costs, higher
contract services for containers, and wage inflation.
Underlying net profit after tax for the third quarter increased by 156.7% to $4.8 million from $1.9 million
in the same period last year. For the nine months this increased by 70% to $15.9 million from $9.3
million primarily due to the higher operating result.
Reported net profit after tax for the third quarter increased 13.7% to $4.8 million from $4.2 million in the
same period last year, and for the nine months increased 48.2% to $19.1 million from $12.9 million.
Reported net profit after tax for the nine months included a $7.2 million before tax contribution from the
Cyclone Gabrielle business interruption insurance claim and $2.0 million of additional deferred tax
expense arising from the removal of tax depreciation on commercial buildings.
CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
Over the nine-month period Napier Port has invested $8.6 million in capital assets, including additional
terminal paving, replacement mobile plant and site asset management works.
Cash flows from operating activities increased significantly by $19.4m, or 58.7%, to $52.3 million from
$33 million in the same period last year. Operating cash flow was supported by net $7.5 million of
business interruption insurance income receipts and favourable working capital movements.
Napier Port ended June 2024 with total drawn debt of $108 million, down from $130 million at the end
of the 2023 financial year, and undrawn bank facilities of $72 million, and with a Debt to EBITDA ratio
of 1.87 times.

Notes To The Consolidated Financial Statements
For the nine months ended 30 June 2024
Reclassification of costs
Certain costs incurred by the Group have
been reclassified in the prior period to provide
comparable information to the current period.
As a result, container services revenue has
increased by $2.7 million, property and plant
expenses has decreased by $0.4 million, and
other operating expenses has increased by $3.1
million for the nine months ended 30 June 2023.
There is no change to the reported result from
operating activities for that period.
3. Summary of Material Accounting
Policy Information
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 2023.
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.
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 the Group have experienced
damage and reduced output, which impacts the
Group’s trading. The economic consequences of
this event is continuing to negatively impact the
Group’s 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 submits claims to its insurers as
and when it determines its recoverable losses.
Under the Group’s insurance policy, the relevant
business interruption 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 accounting 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.
In relation to the Group’s progress insurance
claims for business interruption losses sustained
since the cyclone event, for the nine months
ended 30 June 2024 the Group has recognised
total insurance recovery income of $7,243,000 (30
June 2023: $3,500,000) within Other Income and
Expenses in the Consolidated Income Statement.
As at 30 June 2024, $1,494,000 (30 June 2023:
$3,500,000) was receivable and recorded within
the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.
Valuation of sea defences
Sea defences were revalued to fair value as at
31 March 2024 by AECOM New Zealand Ltd.
The valuation was prepared on an optimised
depreciated replacement cost basis and in
accordance with the NZ Infrastructure Asset
Valuation and Depreciation Guidelines published
by the NAMS group of IPWEA. The revaluation
has increased the carrying amount of sea
defences by $16.8 million, resulting in a net book
value for sea defences of $157.3 million as at 31
March 2024.
The valuation of sea defences is subject to
assumptions and judgements which materially
affect the resulting valuation. Such factors include
replacement quantities and unit values (including
breakwater replacement costs of $104,000
to $166,000 per square metre and seawall
replacement costs (per square metre) of $18,000
for demolition, $30,000 for rock, and $81,000
for rock revetment). Other factors include the
condition and performance of assets, estimated
total and remaining effective lives of 70 to 131
years and 70 to 93 years, respectively, and
estimated residual values of 20% of replacement
cost. Other inputs incorporated into the valuation
process include an allowance for project on-costs
of 5-6%. An increase in the remaining useful life,
the residual value assumption, or in replacement
quantities and unit values for sea defence assets
will result in an increase in the valuation and vice
versa.

Accounting Policies:
Port Operations
Port operations represents a series of
services including marine, berthage and
port infrastructure services to the Group’s
customers which are accounted for as a
single performance obligation. Revenue is
recognised over-time using the percentage of
completion method.
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
Property lease income is recognised on a
straight-line basis over the period of the lease
term.
Operating Segments
The Group determines its operating segments
based on internal information that is regularly
reported to the Chief Executive, who is the
Group’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM).
The Group operates in one reportable segment
being Port Services. This consists of providing
and managing port services and cargo handling
infrastructure through Napier Port. Within the
Port Services reportable segment the following
operating segments have been identified: marine
services, general cargo services, container
services, port pack services and depot services.
These have been aggregated on the basis of
similarities in economic characteristics, customers,
nature of services and risks.
The Group operates in one geographic area, that
being New Zealand. During the period the Group
had two customers which comprised 26% total
revenue (June 2023: 26%).

of 50 years or more from 2024. This change resulted in an increase in deferred tax liability and income tax
expense of $2.03 million.

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;
(ii) removal of expenses and business interruption 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
business interruption 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; and
(iii) removal of the one-off deferred tax charge relating to the removal of tax depreciation on
commercial buildings.
