NZL’s HY24 Result Delivers Income Growth and Dividend Resumption

New Zealand Rural Land Co (NZL.NZX) announces its financial result for the six months ending 30 June 2024

(HY24 end). NZL recorded a net profit after tax of $12.4m and Adjusted Funds From Operations (AFFO) of $3.6m,

excluding earnings from properties with put/call arrangements in place.

HY24 Highlights

• Roc Partners purchased 25% of NZL’s portfolio, validating strategy and partnering for future growth;

• AFFO grew from 1.53 cps in HY23 to 1.94 cps (+26.8%) in HY24. NZL forecasts FY24 AFFO of between 5.01

cps and 5.36cps (FY24 includes the rental adjustments and first half year of higher yielding acquisitions);

• Portfolio diversification and yield materially increased by forestry and horticultural acquisitions in HY24;

• WALT increased from 11.6 years (31 December 2023) to 12.7 years at HY24 end;

• 17,457 hectares of rural land now owned, an increase of +18.3% on FY23;

• Gearing lowered to 30.5% with 64.0% of debt hedged;

• HY24 forestry transactions reaffirm NZL’s partnership with New Zealand Forestry Leasing (NZFL) and continue

NZL’s contribution to the New Zealand Governments international and domestic greenhouse gas emissions

targets and biodiversity enhancements;

• Dividend reinstated at 75% of AFFO, equivalent to 1.46 cps. Dividend will be paid in mid-October 2024;

• Dividend reinvestment plan will be reinstated; and

• On-market share buyback programme continued, with 10,000 shares repurchased at an average price of

$0.88 per share, bringing the total shares repurchased to 621,327 since buyback was initiated in June 2023.

CPI Adjustments

CPI linked rental increases of +18.6% on 37.3% of NZL’s portfolio took effect mid 2024 a further 26.5% of NZL’s

portfolio was subject to a +4.0% increase on 15 April 2024.

NZL benefits from CPI adjustments for all of its properties and has received CPI adjusted rental payments from all

18 properties due for review by mid 2024. CPI for the three years ending mid 2024 was +18.6% and represents a

period of strong inflationary pressures. Reflecting this the portfolio’s total lease value has increased by ~$1.56m or

+7.6%. NZL’s dairy leases undergo CPI review every three years, in contrast to its horticultural and forestry leases

which undergo CPI review annually.

Roc Transaction

On 19 January 2024, NZL announced it had entered into an agreement to sell a 25% equity interest in its land

portfolio to Roc Partners (Roc). This transaction settled in early HY24 on 9 February 2024.

Roc acquired the equity interest for $44.2m in cash. NZL used the proceeds to repay the $11.8m owing on a

convertible note it drew down in April 2023 to partially fund its forestry acquisition. Further proceeds were used

to fund orchard and forestry land acquisitions detailed below, with the balance retained as working capital while

other opportunities are investigated.

Acquisitions

In February 2024, NZL announced its intention to acquire a 97 hectare horticultural property in Hawke’s Bay and a

1,105 hectare forestry estate in Manawatu-Whanganui. NZL has since settled both transactions and supplemented

the purchases with an additional 1,501 hectare forestry estate in the same well regarded forestry region. These

properties were collectively purchased for $34.9m and were leased to Kiwi Crunch, New Zealand Forest Leasing

and MM forests, for an average weighted lease term of 24.5 years a weighted average yield of 7.9% (by lease

value). All leases include annual CPI adjustments.

Following these transactions in HY24, NZL now owns 17,457 hectares of rural land (25% of which is owned by Roc)

with a 12.7 year WALT (by lease value) and 100% occupancy across eight tenants (this represents a 10% increase

in rural land asset value). The new properties add meaningful sector, income and tenant diversification to NZL’s

portfolio, with forestry and horticulture now comprising a 33% and 6% proportion of the company’s annual lease

income.

NZL is also pleased to announce that it has entered into an unconditional agreement to purchase 126 hectares of

high-quality horticultural land in one of Central Otago’s prime growing districts. The property will be purchased for

$13.3m, yielding 8.5% annually and will be leased to SI Orchards with annual CPI adjustments. The acquisition is to

be settled in part with $3.5m of NZL shares issued at NAV.

Dividend and Share Buyback Programme

NZL has reinstated dividend payments resolving to pay an interim dividend of 1.46 cps, representing 75% of HY24

AFFO. The dividend will be paid in mid October 2024.

NZL’s intention has always been to pay regular semi-annual dividends with an interim dividend paid in October

and final dividend paid in March each year. NZL’s amended dividend policy targets a pay-out of 60% - 90% of

AFFO. The pay-out range grants the company greater flexibility to deploy NZL’s cash operating earnings in ways

considered most beneficial to increasing shareholder value.

The company maintains a selective on-market share buyback programme. Pursuant to NZX Listing Rule 4.14.2,

buybacks may take place on and from 1 June 2023 for a period of 12 months. As per the policy released on 27

May 2024, the total number of shares that may be bought back shall not exceed 6,000,000 shares. Shares will

only be acquired if the acquisition price represents 90% or less of NZL’s prevailing net asset value per share.

During the period, NZL repurchased a total of 10,000 shares at an average price of $0.88 per share. Under the

programme, 621,327 shares have been acquired as at the date of this announcement.

NZL is also reinstating its dividend reinvestment plan which offers shareholders the opportunity to reinvest the

E: info@nzrlc.co.nz | T: +64 9 217 2905

www.nzrlc.co.nz
net proceeds of cash dividends payable on some or all of their NZL shares into additional fully paid shares.

Outlook

NZL’s strategy is to own quality rural land in New Zealand; growing a diverse portfolio while delivering attractive

risk-adjusted returns as a ground lessor. NZL’s transactions to date have delivered on this strategy.

NZL’s leases incorporate regular CPI reviews. That means inflation results in rental growth. Meanwhile, NZL is

insulated from inflation, and all other operational on-farm costs by owning only the land.

Post the most recent acquisitions and Roc transaction, NZL forecasts FY24 AFFO of between $7.0m and $7.5m,

which excludes earnings from properties with put/call arrangements in place (~$1.2m).

Importantly, NZL has hedging arrangements in place for 64% of its total borrowings. Gearing amounts to 30.5% of

total assets.

These interim financial statements are for the 6 month period ending 30 June 2024.

The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These affect the amounts of

reported revenue and expense and the measurement of assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The principal

areas of judgement and estimation in these financial statements are:

New Zealand Rural Land Company Limited and its subsidiaries

The consolidated interim financial statements for New Zealand Rural Land Company Limited (the "Company" or "Parent" or "NZRLC") and its

subsidiaries (the "Group") are for the economic entity comprising the Company and its subsidiaries. The Group's principal activity is

investment in New Zealand rural farmland and forestry land.

The Company is incorporated in New Zealand and registered under the Companies Act 1993. The Company is an FMC reporting entity for the

purposes of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013 and the Financial Reporting Act 2013. The Company was incorporated on 11 September

2020 and is domiciled in New Zealand. The Company is listed on the New Zealand Stock Exchange (NZX Limited) with ordinary shares listed

on the NZX Main Board. The address of the Company's registered office is 50 Customhouse Quay, Wellington Central, Wellington, New

Zealand.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with New Zealand Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (NZ GAAP), New

Zealand International Accounting Standard 34 (NZ IAS 34) Interim Financial Reporting and International Accounting Standard 34 (IAS 34)

Interim Financial Reporting. For the purposes of complying with NZ GAAP the Group is a for-profit entity.

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for derivative financial instruments and investment

properties which are measured at fair value.

The financial statements do not contain all the disclosures normally included in an annual financial report and should be read in conjunction

with the audited year ended 31 December 2023 consolidated financial statements.

In January 2024, the Company entered into an agreement to sell a 25% stake in its rural land portfolio to a group of investors in a Land Trust

("Land Trust") for $44.2 million.

The Company used $11.8 million of the proceeds to repay the convertible loan that it drew down in April 2023 to partially fund a forestry

acquisition (refer to note 13). The balance of the funds have been used for land acquisitions or is held for future opportunities.

The investment was mechanised through the establishment of a limited partnership, the New Zealand Rural Land Limited Partnership (the

“LP”). The portfolio of rural land assets and associated debt was transferred to the LP prior to Land Trust's investment. NZRLC’s investment

mandate continues in the LP with the same active strategy and manager (New Zealand Rural Land Management Limited Partnership).

The Company holds 75% of the partnership units and economic interest with Land Trust holding the other 25%. The LP is directed by New

Zealand Rural Land Investment GP Limited (the “GP”) with the Company and the Land Trust holding shares in the GP at the same proportion

as their LP units.

The Company’s directors represent the majority of the GP (75%) and can unilaterally direct disposals and subsequent acquisitions of

properties for land individually up to $5 million. Furthermore, the Company has the ability to make some changes to lease agreements. The

Company has concluded this provides it with sufficient power to direct the relevant activities of the LP and accordingly has concluded that it

controls and will consolidate the LP.

The accounting policies and methods of computation in the most recent annual financial statements are followed in these interim financial

statements.

These financial statements are presented in New Zealand dollars, which is the Group's functional currency. All amounts have been rounded

to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise stated.

Segment information

Investment properties

The Group operates in one business segment being New Zealand rural land.

During the period, a distribution of $875,000 was declared from the LP to the Land Trust.

Investment property is property held either to earn rental income, for capital appreciation or for both.

Proportion of ownership

Investment property is initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at fair value with any change recognised in profit or loss. Any

gain or loss arising from a change in fair value is recognised in profit or loss. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging operating

leases and lease incentives granted are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset.

As at 31 Dec

2023

As at 30 June

2024

The GP shareholder agreement requires profits (based on Adjusted Funds from Operations (AFFO)) to be distributed to the LP unit holders.

Accordingly, Land Trust's share of the profits has been allocated to the redeemable units liability which is subsequently reduced as and when

distributions are made (Refer to note 4.1).

Property valuations are carried out at least annually by independent registered valuers. Valuations performed on the forestry estates are

made and evaluated through discounted cash flows, with independent market inputs reviewed by independent valuers. During the 6 month

period ended 30 June 2024 only two properties were revalued (Kiwi Crunch Orchard and Piripiri Forest), as stated in revaluation gain in the

table below.

In February 2030, the Land Trust has the option to offer to sell its units in the LP to the Company. If there has been a significant financial

deterioration in the LP then that option can be exercised 2 years earlier. If the Company does not acquire the units, then Land Trust can sell

those units to a third party. After a subsequent 6-month period if no third party has purchased the units for at least 98% of the value

(determined based on independent asset valuations less associated debt) then Land Trust can require the LP to redeem the units. The

Company and Land Trust will then agree which LP assets are to be sold to fund the redemption. No assets can be sold resulting in proceeds

for less than 90% of their net asset value (determined using the most recent independent valuation reports).

The potential sale obligation for the LP to redeem Land Trust's units means the Group has classified Land Trust's interest in the LP as a

financial liability (redeemable LP units in the Interim Consolidated Statement of Financial Position). The Group has initially and subsequently

measured that liability based on the reporting date fair value, i.e. as if the redemption occurred at the reporting date. Movements in the

liability are reported in other income in the Profit and Loss as movement in redeemable LP units.

Included in the Group's total rental income, more than 15% was received from three significant customers, Performance Dairy Limited, WHL

Capital Limited, and New Zealand Forest Leasing (No.2) Limited. The total rental income derived in the 6 months ended 30 June 2024 from

these customers was $1.460 million, $1.824 million and $2.521 million respectively (6 months ended 30 June 2023: $1.556 million, $1.824

million, and $1.050 million respectively). All three significant customers have contributed more than 15% of the Group's total rental income

(6 months ended 30 June 2023: nil).

6.1Fair value measurement, valuation techniques and inputs

Location

Net of amortisation.

Investment properties are derecognised when they have been disposed of and any gains or losses incurred on disposal are recognised in

profit or loss in the year of derecognition.

Includes directly attributable acquisition costs.

External, independent valuers, having appropriate recognised professional qualifications and recent experience in the location and category

of the property being valued, value the Group’s investment property portfolio at least every 12 months. The fair values are based on market

values, being the estimated amount for which a property could be exchanged on the date of the valuation between a willing buyer and a

willing seller in an arm’s length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without

compulsion.

Net of amortisation.

Includes directly attributable acquisition costs.

In June 2024, the LP acquired a 1,500 hectare forestry estate for $7.3 million. The purchase was funded 75% by the Company and 25%

contribution from Land Trust.

The Group's investment properties were last independently valued at 31 December 2023. There have been no subsequent independent

valuations in the period ended 30 June 2024. The revaluation gain of investment properties above as at 30 June 2024 was determined by

utilising the same valuation methodology as used previously, but updating for market conditions.

In February 2024, the LP acquired apple and forestry land for a total of $27.6 million. The apple orchard land was approximately 97 hectares

and will be leased to Kiwi Crunch for 30 years generating $1.4 million of income in year one of the lease agreement. The LP also acquired

forestry land of approximately 1,119 hectares and will lease the land to New Zealand Forest Leasing Limited for a period of 16 years,

generating $760k of income in year one of the lease agreement. Both purchases were funded 75% by Company funding and 25% contribution

from Land Trust.

*Block Four is measured at cost.

The tenants of both sites have leased the land to derive income from either carbon or timber. It is assumed based on the current pricing and

outlook that carbon will be the most likely income source, it is therefore assumed that the forests will not be harvested and will slowly revert

to native forest.

The investment properties have been assessed on a fair value basis utilising the income approach for the Group's interest as lessor and a

market approach to assess the reversionary value of the assets at the expiry of the current lease terms.

Two forestry assets were acquired during the period ended 30 June 2024. The first asset was acquired as bare land with planting to be

completed in 2024, and is leased to a third party until 2040. The second acquisition is an established forestry asset with areas still to be

planted, leased to a third party with expiry in 2046.

The valuation of the forestry assets has been assessed utilising the income approach for the Group's interest as a lessor and discounted post-

lease cashflows. The value of the post lease period is based on estimated carbon production and carbon unit pricing.

The net present value of the income provided under the lease agreements have been assessed to be, in some instances, at a premium to

market leases. This results in the Group's interest assessment in the leases being greater than the current fair value for the asset on the basis

of the fee simple valuation.

*The Group purchased their first orchard during the period ended 30 June 2024.

Investment properties are classified as level 3 (inputs are unobservable for the asset or liability) under the fair value hierarchy on the basis

that adjustments must be made to observable data of similar properties to determine the fair value of an individual property. During the year

there were no transfers of investment properties between levels of the fair value hierarchy.

The valuation techniques used in measuring the fair value of investment property, as well as the significant unobservable inputs used are as

Finance income includes interest income derived from financial assets and any fair value gain of derivative instruments. Interest income is

accrued using the effective interest rate method. The effective interest rate exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the

expected life of the financial asset to its gross carrying amount.

The rate applied to discount future cashflows, it reflects transactional

evidence from similar types of property assets. Used in the income

The current value is also driven by the volumes of estimated carbon sequestration over the life of the forest which has been modelled by

external experts based on comparable properties and the I300 method which is used to express the productivity of a site in terms of volume

growth for Pinus radiata. It is the mean annual volume increment in cubic metres per hectare of a 300 stem per hectare Radiata pine stand at

age 30 years. As a measure of productivity used in modelling and forecasting tree growth and stand yield, it is relevant even where crops are

not intended to be thinned to a stocking as low as 300 stems per hectare or grown to age 30.

Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently classified and measured at

amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in the Consolidated

Statement of Comprehensive Income using the effective interest method (refer to note 8). Borrowings are classified as current liabilities

unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date.

Key Judgement

On 2 August 2021, the Group acquired land at a North Canterbury Dairy Farm (Makikihi Farm) for $12 million and simultaneously entered

into a lease and a put and call agreement with Makikihi Robotic Dairy Limited (MRDL), a related entity to the vendor. Under the call

agreement, MRDL can acquire the land on 31 May in any year (providing a minimum 90 days notice has been provided) from the Group for

12 million plus 10% interest compounding annually. Under the put agreement, from 1 August 2023 the Group can require MRDL to acquire

the land on 31 May any year under the same pricing mechanism and notice requirements. The put and call option has a 99 year life.

Transaction fees incurred for the period ended 30 June 2024 were $0.327 million and $0.12 million (year period 30 June 2023: $0.878 million

and $0.06 million) in relation to the purchase and lease fee components (respectively). The purchase fee for the comparable period was

included in the initial carrying amount of the acquired investment property. The leasing fee for the comparative period has been added to

the carrying value of the leased asset (being investment properties) as part of the initial direct costs of arranging the lease.

The Group, in conjunction with Land Trust (note 4), has appointed an external manager, New Zealand Rural Land Management Limited

Partnership through a signed management agreement. The Manager is responsible for all management functions of the Group, including:

A performance fee is payable to the Manager when the Group's net asset value ('NAV') per share exceeds the Group's NAV per share in the

immediately preceding financial year. This annual performance fee is calculated as 10% of the increase in NAV per share and is settled

through the issue of ordinary shares based on the NAV per share at that date. NAV per share is adjusted for the impact of capital

reconstructions (such as a rights issue at a premium or discount), with the intention of the calculation being neither prejudicial nor

advantageous to the Company or the Manager. Half of the ordinary shares issued are held in escrow and cannot be sold for 5 years. The

performance fee in the financial year ended 31 December 2024 will be calculated after the financial year end. The shares will be issued to the

Manager subsequent to balance date.

On 9 February 2024, Land Trust purchased a 25% equity stake in the LP. The Manager charged the Group 1.25% of the transaction price

($0.869 million) for the sale (refer to note 4).

A fee is payable for the following transactions:

For each purchase or sale of land, a fee equal to 1.25% of the acquisition or divestment cost of the land and improvements; and

A monthly management fee is payable equal to 0.5% per annum of the Group's Net Asset Value, calculated on a monthly basis. The total

management fees for the period ended 30 June 2024 were $0.662 million (six months ended 30 June 2023: $0.503 million).

For each lease agreement entered into, a fee of $30,000.

The Group presents net assets per share and net tangible assets per share in these financial statements. The Group believes that these non-

Rules and net assets per share is a measure monitored by management and required for calculating the Manager's performance fee.

Non-GAAP measures do not have a standard meaning prescribed by GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to information presented

by other entities. These measures should not be viewed in isolation, nor considered as a substitute for measures reported in accordance with

NZ IFRS.

6 month period

ended 30 June

2024

Funds from operations ('FFO') is a non-GAAP financial measure that shows the Group's underlying and recurring earnings from its operations

and is considered industry best practice for a property fund to enable investors to see the cash generating ability of the business. This is

determined by adjusting statutory net profit (under NZ IFRS) for certain non-cash and other items. FFO has been determined based on

guidelines established by the Property Council of Australia and is intended as a supplementary measure of operating performance. The

Manager uses and considers Adjusted Funds From Operations ('AFFO') as a measure of operating cash flow generated from the business,

after providing for all operating capital requirements including maintenance capital expenditure, tenant improvement works, incentives and

leasing costs.

¹ Represents amounts set aside each financial period for future expected maintenance capital expenditure as considered prudent by the

Manager. These amounts do not qualify for recognition as liabilities on the balance sheet under NZ GAAP.

Overview of Higher AFFO, WALT and Diversity

During the period NZL settled three acquisitions. These acquisitions are accretive

to AFFO and WALT, further diversify NZL’s portfolio, and increase rental adjustment

frequency*.

The first acquisition was the land supporting three apple orchards located in the

Hawke’s Bay region. The properties have a total land area of approximately 97 hectares

of which 82 hectares are planted in a range of apple varieties. This marks NZL’s entry

into a new sub-sector (Horticulture).

The second acquisition was a forestry property located in close proximity to NZL’s

existing estates in the Manawatū-Whanganui region. This property has a total area of

approximately 1,105 hectares and is leased to New Zealand Forest Leasing (NZFL).

The third acquisition was a portfolio of forestry properties located in Taranaki,

Whanganui and Rangitikei. These properties have a total area of 1,501ha and are leased

to MM Forests Limited.

Subsequent to the end of the period NZL entered into an unconditional agreement to

purchase an additional apple orchard located in the Otago region. Settlement will take

place in two tranches with the first occurring in November 2024 with $3.5m settled in

NZL shares at NAV.

*The properties were acquired through a newly formed Limited Partnership 75% owned by NZL and 25% owned by Roc Partners

New Zealand Rural Land Company

SUSTAINABILITY PROGRAMME

NZL continues to work on mapping its current portfolio for marginal land which can be enhanced with planting and a programme to increase

biodiversity. The mitigation of erosion is a key outcome of this planting with potential for carbon sequestration and sediment control.

NZL has initiated work on several special projects across its portfolio. These include a solar pump upgrade (from diesel), improved effluent

systems on some farms, (budgeted capex at purchase) and native regeneration and predator control at NZL’s forestry estate in partnership with

our tenant New Zealand Forestry Leasing.

HY24 SUSTAINABILITY HIGHLIGHTS

SPOTLIGHT ON: Native Forest Regeneration

In the first half of FY24, NZL completed two forestry land acquisitions, deploying a further $16.8m into 2,606 hectares of high quality forestry land in the

Manawatū-Whanganui region. These transactions serve to further diversify NZL’s rural land portfolio, and continue it’s contribution to the New Zealand

Governments international and domestic greenhouse gas emissions targets, and biodiversity initiatives.

NZL partners with its tenant New Zealand Forest Leasing which has a large nationwide carbon sequestration and native regeneration project underway. This

involves using pines as a “nurse crop” and using a variety of methods to ensure long-term native regeneration. The methodology of “Nurse Crop” coupled

with native regeneration has a two fold effect on sustainability. The Pinus Radiata nurse crop delivers unmatched early growth rates, sequestering atmospheric

greenhouses gases at high rates, which are the primary perpetrator in the global fight against climate change. Alongside exceptional carbon sequestration, the

fast growth rates create a forest canopy and starve out grass and weeds, creating an optimal micro-climate for shade tolerant native species to successfully

establish.

Particular active management initiatives to enable native regeneration include: Fire Management, Large Scale Intensive Pest Animal Control, Pest Plant Control

and Forest Health Monitoring.

The FY24 forestry transactions reaffirmed NZL’s partnership with New Zealand Forest Leasing (NZFL). NZFL are a best-in-class manager and execute the

native regeneration on NZL’s properties. Their team mimic the natural regeneration process with techniques such as enabling seed dispersal from existing

native stands, planting natives and thinning the nurse crop canopy. As regeneration progresses, native bird and insect species increase. These species are

protected by NZFL’s active pest management program which is the largest in New Zealand.

Green Loan

NZL has published the programme it uses to ensure land and

partnerships are enduring.

Commitments between NZL and tenants are developed and

refined jointly, incorporating industry best practice, latest

scientific research and learnings from leading tenants. Joint

commitments to preserve the land are made binding by our

leases and NZL incorporates regular audits to monitor this.

As part of its forestry acquisitions NZL established a green

loan programme. The green loan follows the Asia Pacific Loan

Market Association Green Loan Principles. Working within

these principles enables NZL to align itself with UN Sustainable

Development Goal 15 which aims to protect, restore and

promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, sustainably

manage forests, combat desertification, and halt and reverse

land degradation and halt biodiversity loss.

Other Initiatives

NZL has initiated work on several special projects across its

portfolio. These include a solar pump upgrade (from diesel),

improved effluent systems on some of our farms, native

regeneration and predator control at NZL’s forestry estate in

partnership with our tenant.

DIVIDEND AND OUTLOOK

New Zealand Rural Land Company

DIVIDEND REINSTATEMENT & SHARE BUYBACK PROGRAMME

Dividend

Share Buyback Programme

NZL has resolved to pay a dividend of 1.46 cps equivalent to 75% of NZL’s

HY24 AFFO*.

NZL’s dividend policy targets a pay-out ratio of 60% - 90% of AFFO. The

pay-out range grants the company greater flexibility to deploy NZL’s cash

operating earnings in ways most beneficial to increasing shareholder value.

NZL is also reinstating its dividend reinvestment plan which offers

shareholders the opportunity to reinvest the net proceeds of cash dividends

payable on some or all of their NZL shares into additional fully paid shares.

NZL maintains a selective on-market buyback programme. Pursuant to

NZX Listing Rule 4.14.2 buybacks may take place over a 12 month period

commencing on 1 June 2024.

As per the policy released on 27 May 2024, the total number of shares that

may be bought back shall not exceed 6,000,000 shares. Shares will only be

acquired if the acquisition price represents 90% or less of NZL’s prevailing net

asset value per share.

The board will regularly determine the exact capital allocation to the buyback

programme while considering prevailing market conditions.

During the period NZL repurchased a total of 10,000 shares at an average

price of $0.88 per share. NZL may acquire up to a further 5,990,000 shares

under this programme.

OUTLOOK & FY24 FORECAST

NZL’s leases incorporate regular, uncapped, CPI reviews. Accordingly, inflation will

result in rental growth. Furthermore, NZL is insulated from inflation-impacted (and all

other operational) on-farm costs by owning only the land.

NZL has seen the impact of inflation in 2024, with many of its leases having

successfully undergone CPI review. These include:

• 100% of leases for forestry assets acquired in FY23 in April 2024. CPI

accumulated since the leases began in April 2023 was +4.0%, and the leases

have therefore increased by +4.0%.

• 57% of NZL’s pastoral leases were subject to review through July 2024. CPI

accumulated since the leases began was +18.6%, with the leases subsequently

adjusted by this amount.

NZL has hedging arrangements in place for 64% of its total borrowings costing,

on average, 6.2%. The remaining debt is floating and the cost of the floating debt

component is 7.2%. NZL’s weighted average cost of debt is 6.6%.

NZL still retains cash from the Roc Partners transaction following its orchard and

forestry acquisitions. NZL will continue to investigate options for deploying this cash

in a way which best serves its shareholders.

Post the most recent acquisitions and Roc transaction, NZL forecasts FY24 AFFO

of between $7.0m and $7.5m (Note: this excludes earnings from properties with

put/call arrangements in place). AFFO per share of 5.01 to 5.36 cents (Based on

139,796,055 shares on issue).

Dividend payout ratio in keeping with NZL’s new policy is 60-90% of AFFO.

ROC PARTNERS TRANSACTION

Overview

On 19 January 2024 NZL announced it had entered into an agreement to sell

a 25% equity interest in its land portfolio to Roc Partners (Roc). This transaction

settled on 9 February 2024.

Roc acquired the equity interest for approximately $44.2m in cash.

NZL used the proceeds to repay the $11.8m owing on a convertible note it drew

down in April 2023 to partially fund its forestry acquisition. A further $26.2m of

the proceeds were used to fund orchard and forestry land acquisitions.

• Capital recycling at a premium - the transaction is highly value accretive to

shareholders given the value of the 25% sold versus the implied share price value

of the rural land portfolio.

• Improved financial position - the proceeds of the transaction enabled NZL

to repay its convertible note, and have the financial capacity to capitalise on

opportunities that are NAV and AFFO accretive.

• Strategic partner – Roc Partners has extensive experience in rural property

investment and conducted extensive due diligence as part of the transaction. NZL

and Roc have already co-invested (through the LP) in two acquisitions successfully

growing the portfolio.

Key Points

Carbon markets rallied strongly in 2023 with the price of New Zealand Emissions Units (NZUs) rising to $75 from $33. This comes after the

government made a U-turn on it’s alignment with Climate Change Amendment Regulations, which lay out rules surrounding auctions, limits and

price controls for NZUs in the Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS). From the December 2023 auction, the number of NZUs available were reduced and

auction price controls manipulated to reduce demand, steering more emitters down the path of reducing emissions, as opposed offsetting them.

This strategy aims to support New Zealand’s ability to achieve its emission budgets and meet its international climate change commitments.

CARBON & DAIRY MARKET UPDATES

NZU Historical Pricing

Carbon

Dairy

In December 2023, Fonterra increased its forecast 2024 Farmgate Milk Price by $0.25, to a midpoint of $7.50 per kilogram of milk solids (kgMS); with the

forecast range moving to $7.00 - 8.00 per kgMS. This is an improvement on Fonterra’s FY23 mid point milk price of $6.75 kgMS. While demand is improving,

deep structural shifts in the Chinese export market, in conjunction with climate and geopolitical factors, are a potential risk to this positive outlook. So although

demand is expected to rise, the timing and extent of this recovery is uncertain.
