Commenting, Chair James Miller said “The past six months have been another busy period for
the team at Channel Infrastructure. With our commitment to supporting resilience in New
Zealand’s fuels supply chain, we welcomed further detail from the Associate Minister of Energy,
Hon Shane Jones, about the Government’s Fuel Security Study. We remain committed to
working constructively with the Government to deliver a good outcome for Northland and New
Zealand. The study is a key focus for the Board.”
“A secure and reliable fuel supply chain is also good for shareholders, and we remain committed
to lifting shareholder value and returns. With continued strong Normalised Free Cash Flow and
net debt to EBITDA within the target range, the Board has declared an interim dividend of 4.4 cents
per share, representing a 5% increase from last year.”
“The Board’s vision is for Marsden Point to be an energy precinct for New Zealand, and we have
made good progress towards delivering on this vision including progressing opportunities with
Fortescue on Sustainable Aviation Fuel manufacture. We are looking forward to presenting our
vision for the future of our site, when we finalise the Marsden Point Energy Precinct Concept.”
CEO Rob Buchanan said “Channel has several near-term growth opportunities at Marsden Point.
So far in 2024, we have signed two customer contracts that together deliver ~$75
3
million of
additional revenue across the contract term. There are many other opportunities ahead of us as
we continue to look for innovative ways to support our customers and Government to deliver a
resilient fuels supply chain and repurpose our land at Marsden Point in line with our strategy.”
“We have a critical role to play in providing resilience for New Zealand, and over the past two years
we have commissioned over 100 million litres of storage for our customers. Adding to this, today
we announced an additional jet fuel storage contract which will further support New Zealand’s
resiliency.

Pre PPI indexation
Strong financial result
Revenue increased 8% from $64.4 million to $69.8 million reflecting the benefit of PPI, higher
throughput and increased private storage fees. Private and additional storage contributed $8.1
million (HY23: $5.1 million) with a full six-month contribution from the ~100 million litres of
private storage coming into service over the last two years. Operating costs increased 4% to
$21.7 million with the benefit of the new fixed price variable volume electricity contract. This was
offset by increased compliance costs and salaries and wages reflecting filling of vacancies in the
second half of 2023 to deliver resilient terminal operations, and additional capability added for
investment in world-class operations. EBITDA from continuing operations increased 10% to $48.1
million, reflecting a strong EBITDA margin of 69%.
Stay-in-business capital expenditure was $4.3 million (HY23: $5.3 million), with spend expected
to be second-half weighted, driven by tank statutory inspection outage dates aligned with the
long-term Asset Management Plan.
Normalised Free Cash Flow remained strong at $32.7 million, representing an EBITDA to Free
Cash Flow conversion of 68%.
Board declares interim dividend of 4.4 cents per share
With normalised Free Cash Flow of $32.7 million and a net debt to EBITDA ratio of 3.4 times as
at 30 June 2024, well within the targeted range of 3 to 4 times, the Board has declared an interim
unimputed ordinary dividend of 4.4 cents per share. The interim dividend will be paid on 20
September 2024, with a record date on 6 September 2024.
The Board is committed to delivering stable ordinary dividends over time, while maintaining credit
metrics consistent with a shadow investment grade credit rating of BBB+. Channel
Infrastructure’s dividend policy is to pay-out 60-70% of normalised Free Cash Flows

.
Increased imported fuel flowing through Channel’s infrastructure
During the first six months of the year, customers imported 1.8 billion litres of fuel through
Channel’s infrastructure. With continued growth in the number of international flights, Auckland
jet fuel demand increased 22% on the same period last year and jet volumes are at 94% of pre-
Covid levels. Diesel and Petrol demand remained relatively stable over the same period.
Growth opportunities secured to reinforce resilience for New Zealand’s fuel supply chain
Channel Infrastructure has several near-term growth opportunities at Marsden Point. So far in
2024, two customer contracts have been signed that provide additional revenue and additional
fuel resilience for New Zealand. There are many other opportunities to support customers to meet
the incoming minimum stockholding obligations and create supply chain efficiencies.
.
As announced in May, Channel Infrastructure entered into a seven-year contract to upgrade
Channel's Marsden Point infrastructure that will enable transmix
5
to be stored and exported. The
upgrade involves incremental growth capital expenditure across 2024 of $12-15 million and is
expected to generate incremental revenue of approximately $3 million per annum (commencing
Q4 2024), indexed to PPI.
Channel Infrastructure today also announces that it has entered into a 10-year contract to store
jet fuel for Z Energy Limited at Marsden Point. Upgrade works will begin in 2024 and involve
incremental growth capital expenditure of $26-30 million across 2024 to 2026. The contract is
expected to generate incremental revenue of ~$55 million over the contract term (pre-PPI
indexation). Revenue from the new contract is anticipated to commence in Q1 2027.
Supporting New Zealand Government’s fuel security ambitions
Channel is committed to supporting New Zealand to build a resilient fuels supply chain. In the
past two years Channel has commissioned over 100 million litres of storage for our customers,
taking the total in-service storage to over 290 million litres today, with a further jet storage
contract announced today significantly increasing jet fuel storage at Marsden Point. Channel’s
Marsden Point facility is strategically positioned to accommodate additional storage capacity,
with ~400 million litres of former crude tank capacity that can be converted as needed. In
addition, Channel’s proximity and access to Auckland, New Zealand’s largest fuel demand market,
facilitates efficient turnover of fuel stocks to uphold product quality. The Government is currently
undertaking a Fuel Security Study, including investigating the strategic importance of Channel’s
Marsden Point infrastructure and the role the business could play in underpinning New Zealand’s
fuel resilience. The Government is also investigating options to increase New Zealand’s diesel
reserves from 21 to 28 days cover and will consult on options later this year.
Supporting New Zealand’s future fuels
Channel has almost completed its Energy Precinct Concept, which takes a strategic approach to
understanding the value of the 120 hectares of unutilised land at Marsden Point. This plan will
highlight the significant role for our unique site in supporting New Zealand’s energy transition
through potential opportunities such as renewable fuels and other biofuels, LNG and energy
storage.
Channel considers one of the highest and best potential uses of the available land is for onshore
production of renewable fuels. Renewable fuels are a ‘drop-in’ fuel that would utilise the existing
jet fuel supply chain, including Channel’s existing infrastructure, airport infrastructure and existing
aircraft fleets. Channel continues to work with Fortescue on its study of a 300MW ~60 million
litre Sustainable Aviation Fuel production facility, which could restore manufacturing to Marsden
Point, provide domestic resilience for New Zealand, and position us at the forefront of this
emerging global industry. Channel’s existing infrastructure and position in the jet fuel supply chain

Transmix is a mix of petrol/jet/diesel product that results from the operation of terminals and multi-product
pipelines.
to Auckland Airport means we have a role in helping facilitate the renewable fuel transition in New
Zealand, whether via onshore production or the import of alternative fuels.
Seadra’s option has been extended to 30 September 2024 for a further US$0.2 million option fee
(total non-refundable option fee now US$4.7 million). We are working with Seadra and their
consortium partners including Qantas, Renova Inc, Kent Plc and ANZ Bank who are well advanced
in exploring project alternatives for the use of the decommissioned hydrocracking assets.
FY24 Guidance and Outlook
Channel Infrastructure is on track to deliver its FY24 guidance. While jet fuel demand has been
tracking ahead of Envisory’s fuel outlook for the first six months of the year, the Company remains
cautious about the economic environment and the potential cost to respond to the Government
Fuel Security Study.
FY24 Guidance (updated at ASM)
EBITDA from continuing operations $92-96 million No change
Stay-in-business capital expenditure $11-12 million No change
Normalised Free Cash Flow $62-$66 million No change

About Channel Infrastructure
Channel Infrastructure is New Zealand’s largest fuel import terminal, storing and distributing
40% of New Zealand’s transport fuel, including 80% of New Zealand’s jet fuel. We receive, store,
test and distribute petrol, diesel, and jet fuel that our customers import and supply to Auckland
and Northland.
Fuels are imported via our deep-water harbour and jetty infrastructure at Marsden Point and
stored in more than 290 million litres of contracted storage tanks on site. The fuel is then
distributed via our 170-kilometre pipeline to Auckland, or by our customers (bp, Mobil, and Z
Energy) via truck into Northland. We underpin the resilience of New Zealand’s fuel supply chain
with our tank capacity, which enables increased storage of fuel in New Zealand, and through
efficient, low-emission distribution of the fuel into the Auckland market.
Our plan for growth includes exploring the manufacture of lower-carbon fuels at Marsden Point
to support the energy transition in New Zealand. Given our proximity to Auckland, and critical
role in the jet fuel supply chain, Channel is well positioned to facilitate the renewable fuel
transition in New Zealand.
Channel Infrastructure’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Independent Petroleum Laboratory Limited,
provides fuel quality testing services throughout New Zealand.

FY24Guidance and Outlook
FY24 Guidance
•On track to deliver EBITDA guidance of $92-$96 million, Normalised
Free Cash Flow guidance of $62-66 million, and stay-in-business
capex guidance of $11-$12 million
•Jet fuel demand exceeded the Envisory outlook for HY24
•Remain cautious of economic environment and need to respond
to Government Fuel Security Study in 2H 2024 which could incur
additional cost (less than $1 million)
•Stay-in-business capex spend is weighted to 2H 2024 driven by
tank statutory inspection outage dates, aligned with Asset
Management Plan
FY25 and beyond
•Long-term contracts provide stability of earnings. The lower fixed fee
over time is expected to be offset by the benefit of increased
throughput and Producer Price indexation (not assumed in chart)
•Wiri lease revenue expires Feb 2025
1.All revenue is in 2024 terms and does not include any Producer Price indexation. Outlook uses

Channel Infrastructure NZ Limited | 2024 Half Year Report
Notes to the Consolidated
Financial Statements
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 JUNE 2024
Reporting Entity
Channel Infrastructure NZ Limited (‘Parent’, ‘Company’
or ‘Channel Infrastructure’) is a profit-oriented company
registered under the Companies Act 1993 and an FMC
Reporting Entity for the purposes of the Financial Markets
Conduct Act 2013. Channel Infrastructure is listed, and its
ordinary shares are quoted under the ticker CHI on the
NZX Main Board Equity Market (‘NZX Main Board’) and its
corporate bonds (ticker CHI020 and CHI030) are quoted
on the NZX Debt Market.
The consolidated interim financial statements (hereinafter
'financial statements') for the six months ended 30 June
2024 presented are those of Channel Infrastructure
together with its subsidiaries (‘the Group’). Subsidiaries
are all entities over which the Group has control and
includes Channel Terminal Services Limited, Independent
Petroleum Laboratory Limited, Maranga Rā Holdings
Limited and CHI Future Developments Limited.
Basis of Preparation
These financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with International Accounting Standard
34: Interim Financial Reporting and New Zealand
Equivalents to International Accounting Standard 34:
Interim Financial Reporting, and also in accordance with
Generally Accepted Accounting Practice in New Zealand
('GAAP') applicable to for-profit entities. These financial
statements do not include all the information required to
be disclosed in annual consolidated financial statements
and should be read in conjunction with the Group's
consolidated financial statements for the year ended
31 December 2023.
Accounting Policies
The accounting policies used in the preparation of these
financial statements are consistent with those used in the
Group's consolidated financial statements for the year
ended 31 December 2023.
Accounting standards not yet
effective
In May 2024 the External Reporting Board issued
NZ IFRS 18: Presentation and Disclosure in Financial
Statements ('NZ IFRS 18'). This accounting standard
is expected to change the presentation of the
Group's income statement and may introduce additional
note disclosures. NZ IFRS 18 does not impact the
financial position, financial performance or cash flows
of the Group. Other standards, amendments and
interpretations which are not yet effective are not
expected to have a material impact on the Group.
Segment Reporting
The Group operates in one reportable segment,
Infrastructure, which comprises the dedicated fuels
import terminal system (including jetty infrastructure at
Marsden Point, storage tanks, and Marsden Point to
Auckland pipeline), the Wiri land and terminal leases, and
the fuel testing laboratories. The Group operates in one
geographical area, New Zealand.
Use of Judgements and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires
judgements and estimates that affect the application
of accounting policies and reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may
differ from these estimates. The following areas involve
signifiant judgements and estimates:
•
Fair value of property, plant and equipment –
the Group adopts the fair value model as the
measurement base for property, plant and equipment
(refer to Note 5 for further details).
•
Assets held for sale – the Group continues to report
decommissioned
refinery assets that are subject to a
conditional sale agreement, as property, plant and
equipment, rather than as assets held for sale (refer
to Note 5 for further details).
•
Provisions – the Group continues to recognise several
provisions in relation to the conversion of the refinery
into a dedicated fuels import terminal operation (refer
to Note 7 for further details).
•
Recoverability of tax losses – the Group's
accumulated tax losses amount to $445 million at
30 June 2024 . A deferred tax asset in respect of these
unutilised tax losses is recognised, having regard to
the Shareholder and Business Continuity Tests and an
assessment of future taxable profits available against
which the tax losses can be recovered, and therefore
the deferred tax asset realised.
•
Discontinued operations – the Group continues to
present the results from discontinued operations
associated with the refining operations which ceased
in March 2022 (refer to Note 1 for further details).
11
Channel Infrastructure NZ Limited | 2024 Half Year Report
1Discontinued Operations
Discontinued operations relate to refining operations which ceased in March 2022.
In the six months ended 30 June 2024 the results from discontinued operations include revenue from scrap metal
sales and on-going costs associated with ceasing refining operations, including retiree medical scheme costs, costs
associated with the sale of permanently decommissioned refining plant and legal costs associated with settlement
of historical litigation claims. Litigation claims relating to revenue recognition have been settled in the period ended
30 June 2024.
Conversion costs relate to costs associated with the transition to an import terminal and include the reassessment of
long-term provisions (including demolition) due to cost re-estimation and/or changes in discount rates.
Revaluation of assets relates to the change in fair value of the refining plant (refer Note 5 for further details).

Channel Infrastructure NZ Limited | 2024 Half Year Report
5Property, Plant and Equipment
All property, plant and equipment is recognised at fair value less accumulated depreciation, except capital work in
progress which is recognised at historical cost.
Valuation of property, plant and equipment
Import terminal assets
The import terminal assets were revalued using a discounted cash flow methodology at 31 December 2021 by PwC, a
qualified independent valuer.
The key assumptions used in the valuation include the 2021 Envisory fuel demand forecasts, forecast operational and
capital expenditure and discount rates. A review of the key inputs used in the 2021 valuation, updated to 30 June 2024
indicates that there has been no material change in the fair value of the import terminal assets at 30 June 2024.
Refining plant
The refining plant is valued at fair value less costs of disposal. The fair value is based on scrap metal prices estimated
by an industry expert.
At 30 June 2024 the fair value of the refining plant was updated by the industry expert to reflect movement in metals
commodity prices and costs. This resulted in recognition of a revaluation gain of $6.6 million in discontinued operations.
Additions
During the six months ended 30 June 2024 the Group recognised capital additions (work in progress) of $26 million
(31 December 2023: $65.8 million). Additions in the period relate to the terminal conversion project and tank upgrades
to meet contracted demand for storage.
Depreciation
During the six months ended 30 June 2024 the Group recognised depreciation of $18.7 million (30 June 2023:
$16.2 million).
Conditional option agreement for decommissioned assets
On 8 July 2023, the Company entered into an Asset Sale Agreement with US-based Seadra Energy Incorporated
(“Seadra”), granting Seadra an option to purchase permanently decommissioned parts of the former refinery. Under
the agreement, Seadra had an initial period of up to six months to consider the purchase of certain assets from the
hydrocracking complex, in consideration for an option payment of US$4.0 million (NZ$6.5 million), and had the ability
to renew the option to purchase for an additional six months for a further payment of US$0.5 million (NZ$0.8 million). In
December 2023 Seadra extended the option to purchase and had until 7 July 2024 to confirm whether it would pursue
the purchase. The initial option payment was received in July 2023 and the option extension payment was received in
December 2023.
In July 2024, the Company granted a further extension to Seadra's option to purchase. The extension has been
granted to 30 September 2024 in exchange for an additional payment of US$0.2 million (NZ$0.3 million).
Should Seadra elect to exercise the option to purchase, subject to meeting certain conditions, the purchase price
for the assets agreed between the parties is US$33.875 million (NZ$55.7 million translated using the exchange rate at
30 June 2024), including the option payments, but prior to any transaction costs, with the balance of the purchase
price to be paid in instalments throughout the expected 12-month deconstruction period.
Non-current assets are classified by the Group as assets held-for-sale if their carrying amount will be recovered
principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use and a sale is considered highly probable
within 12 months. Due to the challenges of developing technically feasible and financially viable projects involving
second-hand refining plant globally, and specifically noting the agreement with Seadra is only an option to purchase,
the assets proposed to be sold to Seadra have not been classified as non-current assets held for sale as at
30 June 2024.
The carrying amount of the assets subject to the agreement at 30 June 2024 is $5.1 million and the associated
demolition provision that would not be incurred by the Company should the sale complete is $8.1 million.

8Contingencies
From time to time, the Group has legal claims and exposures that arise from contracts and the Group's business in
respect of which no provision has been made. Where it is more likely than not that such a litigation will result in an
outflow of resources that is already reasonably estimated, a provision is recorded.
As a condition of the Group's resource consent for the Marsden Point site, the Group has committed to work with
the Northland Regional Council ahead of time (during the 20th year of consent or at least 12 months prior to the
cessation of terminal operations) to set out the actions necessary to maintain compliance in respect of the discharges
of contaminants. Given the unknown nature of the future activities that may be agreed with the Northland Regional
Council, no liability has been recognised in these financial statements other than the cost associated with ongoing
environmental monitoring activities over a period of 20 years.
The Group had no other contingent liabilities as at 30 June 2024 (31 December 2023: Nil).
9Subsequent Events
In November 2022, former employees lodged a Statement of Problem with the Employment Relations Authority
(the Authority) claiming that the Company incorrectly calculated their redundancy compensation. The Authority’s
investigation commenced in May 2024. In August 2024, the Authority issued its determination, finding in favour of the
former employees. The Company has the ability to file an appeal to the Employment Court within 28 days and is
considering the appropriate course of action. The outcome of this matter is not expected to have a material impact
on the financial statements as presented.

10Non-GAAP measures
Channel uses several non-GAAP measures when discussing financial performance. The Directors and management
believe that these measures provide useful information as they are used internally to evaluate the underlying
performance of the Group.
Non-GAAP profit measures are not prepared in accordance with New Zealand Equivalents to International Financial
Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS) and are not uniformly defined, therefore the non-GAAP profit measures used by Channel
may not be comparable with similarly titled measures used by other companies. Non-GAAP measures should not be
used in isolation nor as a substitute for measures reported in accordance with NZ IFRS.
The definitions of the non-GAAP measures used by Channel and reconciliation's to the amounts presented in the
Consolidated Income Statement are detailed below.
