Comvita provides update on FY25 bank covenant discussions
As advised in its FY24 results announcement last month, Comvita Limited (NZX:CVT) has been in discussions with its bank
syndicate to agree an appropriate covenants structure for FY25, and those discussions continue.
The bank syndicate continues to confirm its ongoing support for the Company. To provide time to finalise the covenant
structure and associated documentation, the bank syndicate has agreed to waive Comvita’s Q1 FY25 covenants (tested as
at 30 September 2024). Comvita will update the market in due course when it has agreed a revised covenant structure for
the remainder of FY25.
Comvita continues to focus on cost reduction, positive operating cashflow and debt reduction.

ENDS.
