FIN 7
Significant accounting policies
Millennium & Copthorne Hotels New Zealand Limited is a company domiciled in New Zealand registered under the Companies Act 1993 and
listed on the New Zealand Stock Exchange. Millennium & Copthorne Hotels New Zealand Limited (the “Company”) is a Financial Markets
Conduct Reporting Entity in terms of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013 and the Financial Reporting Act 2013. The financial statements
of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2024 comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the “Group”). The
registered office is located at Level 7, 23 Customs Street East, Auckland, New Zealand.
The principal activities of the Group are ownership and operation of hotels in New Zealand; development and sale of residential land in New
Zealand; investment properties comprising commercial warehousing and retail shops in New Zealand; and development and sale of residential
units in Australia.
(a) Statement of compliance
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with New Zealand Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (NZ GAAP).
They comply with New Zealand equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRSs) as appropriate for Tier 1
profit-oriented entities. The financial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs).
The financial statements were authorised for issuance on 24 February 2025.
(b) Basis of preparation
The financial statements are presented in the Company’s functional currency of New Zealand Dollars, rounded to the nearest
thousand, unless otherwise indicated. They are prepared on the historical cost basis and on a going concern basis.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with NZ IFRSs requires management to make judgments, estimates and
assumptions that affect the application of the Group’s policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the
period in which the estimate is revised and in any future period affected.
In particular, information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and critical judgements in applying accounting policies
that have the most significant effect on the amount recognised in the financial statements are described in Note 21 – Accounting
Estimates and Judgements.
(c)Change in accounting policies and new standards adopted in the year
The accounting policies have been applied consistently to all periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. The Group
adopted all new and amended standards that became effective during the reporting period, specifically FRS-44 New Zealand
Additional Disclosures of Fees for Audit Firms' Services and Amendment to NZ IAS 1 Non-current Liabilities with Covenants. The
accounting policies are now included within the relevant notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Several new and amended standards are effective for annual periods starting after January 1, 2025. The Group has not early
adopted any new or amended standards in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Further details can be found in note 23.
(d) Foreign currency
Foreign currency transactions
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated at the foreign exchange rate ruling at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets
and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance date are translated to New Zealand dollars at the foreign exchange
rate ruling at that date. Foreign exchange differences arising on translation are recognised in the income statement. Non-monetary
assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the
date of the transaction. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are stated at fair value are
translated to New Zealand dollars at foreign exchange rates ruling at the dates the fair value was determined.
(e) Insurance proceeds
Compensation from third parties for items of property, plant and equipment that were damaged, impaired, lost or given up is included
in the profit or loss when the compensation becomes virtually certain. Any subsequent purchase or construction of replacement
assets are separate economic events and are accounted for separately.

Significant accounting policies - continued
(f) Revenue
Revenue from sale of goods and services in the ordinary course of business is recognised when the Group satisfies a performance
obligation by transferring control of a promised good or service to the customer. The amount of revenue recognised is the amount
of the transaction price allocated to the satisfied performance obligation.
Revenue represents amounts derived from:
•The ownership, management and operation of hotels: revenue from sale of goods is recognised at the point control is
transferred to the customer (point of sale) and for services provided, over the period the service is provided.
•Income from property rental: recognised on an accruals basis, straight line over the lease period. Lease incentives
granted are recognised as an integral part of the total rental income.
•Income from development property sales: recognised when the customer obtains control (when the title is transferred)
of the property and is able to direct and obtain the benefits from the property. The Group grants settlement terms of up
to 12 months on certain sections as part of the Sale and Purchase agreement for unconditional sales. In some instances,
the acquirers are permitted access to the residential sections for building activities prior to settlement. However, the
acquirer does not obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits of the asset until final settlement of the land and title
has passed.
(f)Pillar 2
The Group has adopted the International Tax Reform – Pillar Two Model Rules – Amendments to NZ IAS 12 approved by the New
Zealand External Reporting Board from the issuance date of 10 August 2023. The amendments provide a temporary mandatory
exception from deferred tax accounting and require new disclosures in the annual financial statements in relation to the
implementation of the Pillar Two Model Rules published by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development. The
Group has applied the exception with immediate effect. The mandatory exception applies retrospectively. The group has a
presence in jurisdictions that have enacted or substantively enacted legislation in relation to the Pillar Two model rules. The
ultimate parent of the group also being captured under the said rule in their country of operation. Refer to income tax note 5 for
detail discussion.

An operating segment is a distinguishable component of the Group:
•that is engaged in business activities from which it earns revenues and incurs expenses;
•whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the Group’s chief operating decision maker to make decisions on
resource allocation to the segment and assess its performance; and
•for which discrete financial information is available.
Segment information is presented in respect of the Group’s reporting segments. Operating segments are the primary basis of
segment reporting. The Group has determined that its chief operating decision maker is the Board of Directors on the basis that it
is this group which determines the allocation of resources to segments and assesses their performance.
Segment results include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis.
Segment capital expenditure is the total cost incurred during the period to acquire segment assets that are expected to be used for
more than one period.

Finance income comprises interest income on funds invested, dividend income and foreign currency gains that are recognised in
profit or loss. Interest income is recognised as it accrues, using the effective interest method. Dividend income is recognised in the
income statement on the date the entity’s right to receive payments is established which in the case of quoted securities is the ex-
dividend date.
Finance expenses comprise interest payable on borrowings calculated using the effective interest rate method, interest costs on lease
liability and foreign exchange losses that are recognised in the income statement.

Income tax on the profit or loss for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognised in the income statement
except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in other comprehensive income or equity, in which case it is recognised
in other comprehensive income or equity.
Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the
balance date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of the temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial
reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The following temporary differences are not provided for: goodwill
not deductible for tax purposes; the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that neither affect accounting nor taxable profit; and
differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will probably not reverse in the foreseeable future. The
amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and
liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the balance date.

5.Income tax expense - continued
A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the
asset can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be
realised.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if the Group has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets
against current tax liabilities; the Group intends to settle net; and the deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to
income taxes levied by the same taxation authority.
Removal of tax depreciation on commercial and industrial buildings
From the 2020/21 tax year, the Group has been depreciating its commercial and industrial buildings on a 2% diminishing value
basis, following the reinstatement of tax depreciation for buildings with a useful life of 50 years or more as part of the government's
COVID-19: Economic Response Package.
Effective from 1 April 2024, the tax depreciation rate reverted to 0%, impacting the tax value of buildings held from the 2024/25 tax
year onwards. The Group recognises deferred tax on temporary differences at the tax rates expected to apply when these
differences reverse, using the tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. The change in tax legislation
effective from 1 April 2024 eliminates the tax base of commercial and industrial buildings, thereby creating a temporary difference
that leads to a deferred tax liability. This liability is recognised unless the initial recognition exemption (IRE) under NZ IAS 12 applies,
which precludes the recognition of deferred tax on initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business
combination and at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit and is a non cash item.
Deferred Tax on Buildings
The impact of the removal of tax depreciation on commercial and industrial buildings, which reduced the tax base to nil creating a
significant taxable temporary difference for all the Group’s hotel assets and commercial buildings, classified as either Property,
Plant and Equipment or investment properties, irrespective of their date of acquisition. The recognition of this temporary difference
as a deferred tax liability depends on whether the buildings were acquired through business combination and whether the initial
recognition exception (IRE) in NZ IAS 12 was previously applied.
The change in tax legislation effective from 1 April 2024 eliminates the tax base for these assets, thereby creating a temporary
difference that leads to a deferred tax liability (DTL). As part of recognising the DTL, a one-off tax expense of $25.8m has been
recognised within the year ended 31 December 2024.
Pillar 2
The Group operates in multiple jurisdictions, some of which have enacted or substantively enacted tax legislation to implement the
Pillar Two Model Rules from a date commencing on or after 1 January 2024. Based on the assessment carried out, management
concluded that there is no current tax impact in the Group’s financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024. The Group
has applied a temporary mandatory exception from deferred tax accounting in respect of the Pillar Two Model Rules and will
account for any top-up tax liabilities arising from the application of the rules as a current tax when it is incurred. Under the Pillar Two
Model Rules, the Group will be required to pay a top-up tax if the effective tax rate per jurisdiction (calculated using the prescribed
approach) is below the 15% minimum rate.
The group continues to monitor and evaluate the domestic implementation of the Pillar Two rules in the jurisdictions in which it
operates. The group's potential exposure to Pillar Two taxes, based on legislation that is enacted or substantively enacted, is not
expected to be material.

FIN 17
9.Property, plant and equipment - continued
Initial recording
Items of property, plant and equipment are initially stated at cost. The cost of purchased property, plant and equipment is the value
of the consideration given to acquire the assets and the value of other directly attributable costs, which have been incurred in bringing
the assets to the location and condition necessary for their intended service. Where parts of an item of property, plant and equipment
have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items of property, plant and equipment.
Capital expenditure on major projects is recorded separately within property, plant and equipment as capital work in progress. Once
the project is complete the balance is transferred to the appropriate property, plant and equipment categories. Capital work in progress
is not depreciated.
Subsequent measurement
Property, plant and equipment is subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. The Group
recognises the cost of replacing part of such an item of property, plant and equipment when that cost is incurred if it is probable that
the future economic benefits embodied within the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All
other costs are recognised in the income statement as an expense as incurred.
Impairment
The Group assesses impairment of non-current tangible assets at each reporting date when there are indicators of impairment. If an
impairment indicator exists, the recoverable amount is estimated at the cash generating unit (“CGU”) or individual asset level. A CGU
is the smallest asset group that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are independent of other assets or cash generating
units “CGU”. Management has determined that each hotel site represents a separate CGU for the purpose of the impairment
assessment, unless separate land titles are not used for generation of cash flows by the hotel the CGU is the equivalent of the hotel
assets recorded as property, plant and equipment. The recoverable amount of assets or CGU is the greater of their fair value less
disposal costs and their value in use. An impairment loss is recognised in the income statement whenever the carrying amount of an
asset or CGU exceeds its estimated recoverable amount.
Market capitalisation is lower than the net assets indicating potential impairment. In response management used judgement to identify
impairment indicators at the CGU or individual material asset level including using thresholds to identify hotels with smaller headroom
based on prior valuations, and the hotels performance being below expectation among other factors. Indicators of impairment were
identified with reference to the individual hotels trading conditions and independent valuations.
The recoverable amounts of the Group’s CGUs or individual assets are based on fair value less cost of disposal or value in use
determined by an independent valuer. In 2024 the recoverable amount of the CGU was determined by independent appraiser Colliers
and Bower valuations Limited and in 2023 recoverable amount was determined by internal review conducted by management and
supplemented by external review on selected hotels by an independent registered valuer Bower Valuations Limited.
The valuation methods used require the independent appraiser to make a number of assumptions including estimating the future
cash flows expected to arise from the cash-generating units, suitable discount, capitalisation and square meter rates, as well as value
per room, to determine the recoverable value.
Valuation methodologies used are explained below:
Income capitalisation method Capitalisation methodology converts short term earnings derived from a property into value.
The central premise of this approach is that the adopted capitalisation rate is derived from
the yields indicated by sales of similar property investments. The yields derived from
comparable sales evidence are purported to reflect any expectations of future growth in
income and capital value.
Discounted cash flow method The discounted cashflow analysis (DCF) is based on the concept that an investment value is
the time adjusted value of future cashflows which can be obtained from an asset. This
requires explicit assumptions to be made regarding prospective income and expenses,
including occupancy and average daily rate, as well as timing and duration of cash flows over
the holding period. A five (5) year horizon with a terminal value has been adopted by Colliers
and Bower Valuations Limited to reflect the sustainable earnings profile of the asset.
Sales comparison approach Fair value is determined by applying positive and negative adjustments to recently transacted
assets of a similar nature
The property valuations require the use of judgements specific to the properties, as well as consideration of the prevailing market
conditions. As at 31 December 2024, the hotel property market and economy, were impacted by the economic uncertainty resulting
from high interest rates, inflation and geopolitical unrest, slower global growth, recession as well as continued recovery of international
travel from COVID 19. Significant assumptions used in the valuation are inherently subjective and in times of economic uncertainty
the degree of subjectivity maybe higher than it might otherwise be. Key estimates and judgements are influenced by these
uncertainties. As at the date of valuation, there remains a lower number of recent hotel sales transactions, which increases the
uncertainty around valuation conclusions. A difference in the key assumptions, when aggregated, could result in a significant change
to the valuation of a property.
The assumptions and judgements applied in the estimation of the recoverable amounts of all CGUs correspond to Level 3 category
of NZ IFRS 13 fair value hierarchy. The key unobservable inputs that required significant estimation and judgements are presented
below:

Two hotel assets were considered sensitive to impairment:
•The recoverable amount of one of the hotel assets was determined on a highest and best use, being fair value of the land
less demolition costs using comparative land sales data. The fair value of this hotel asset exceeded its carrying value by
$0.9 million and is considered to be sensitive to impairment from a reasonably possible change in square metre rate.
•The recoverable amount of one of the hotel assets had a carrying value equivalent to its recoverable amount of $15.2
million. Any material change in key assumptions (listed in the above table) would therefore result in an impairment.
Management and the directors believe that the key assumptions used, and estimates made, represent the most realistic assessment
of each CGU.
Depreciation
Land is not depreciated. Depreciation on other assets is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost to their residual
values over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
•Building core50 years or lease term if shorter
•Building surfaces and finishes30 years or lease term if shorter
•Plant and machinery15 - 20 years
•Furniture and equipment10 years
•Soft furnishings5 - 7 years
•Computer equipment5 years
•Motor vehicles4 years
No residual values are ascribed to building surfaces and finishes. Residual values ascribed to building core depend on the nature,
location and tenure of each property. Depreciable values ascribed to building core range between 10% to 24% of the building core.
Disposal or retirement
Gains or losses arising from the disposal or retirement of property, plant and equipment are determined as the difference between
the actual net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the income statement on the date of
retirement or disposal.
Right of use assets
The accounting policy for right of use asset is disclosed in Note 22.
Pledged assets
A total of three (2023: three) hotel properties with a total book value of $83.25 million (2023: $75.33 million) are pledged to the bank
as security against the loan facility disclosed in Note 14.
Climate-related disclosure
The Group continues to assess the impact of climate change on its business and its tangible assets. Climate change poses
significant risks and challenges for the hotel industry and for the land development industry (residential and commercial), as it
affects the physical, operational, and financial aspects of hotel properties. Extreme weather events, such as floods, storms,
heatwaves, and droughts, can damage the hotel infrastructure, disrupt the supply chain, reduce the occupancy and revenue, and
increase the insurance and maintenance costs. While hotel investors, managers, and owners are increasingly cognisant of the
climate-related impacts on their properties, the investment community have yet to price in the climate-related impacts on the asset
values. This means that the current market value of hotel properties may not reflect the potential losses or gains associated with
their exposure to climate risks or their adoption of sustainability measures, decarbonisation initiatives, and sound environmental
stewardship. While valuers have made no explicit adjustments to the recoverable amount of the selected properties in respect of
climate change matters, it is anticipated that climate change may have a greater influence on valuations in the future as investment
markets place a greater emphasis on climate change and a property's environmental resilience and credentials. Known climate
risks are reflected in the adopted capitalisation and discount rates.

Development properties are recognised and measured in accordance with NZ IAS 2 Inventories. They are carried at the lower of cost
and net realisable value. Cost includes the cost of acquisition, development, and holding costs such as interest. Interest and other
holding costs incurred after completion of development are expensed as incurred. All holding costs are written off through profit or
loss in the year incurred with the exception of interest holding costs which are capitalised during the period when active development
is taking place. No interest (2023: nil) has been capitalised during the year.
Residential development at balance date consists of the residential development known as Zenith Residences in Sydney, Australia.
The Group’s inventory of development property is reviewed at each balance date to ensure its carrying amount is recorded at the lower
of its cost and net realisable value. The net realisable value of the development property is the estimated selling price in the ordinary
course of business less the estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. The determination of net realisable
value of inventory involves estimates taking into consideration prevailing market conditions, current prices and expected date of
commencement and completion of the project, the estimated future selling price, cost to complete projects and selling costs. An
impairment loss is recognised in the income statement to the extent that the carrying value of development property exceeds its
estimated net realisable value.
The fair value of development property held at 31 December 2024 was determined by an independent registered valuer, DM Koomen
SPINZ of Extensor Advisory Limited. The fair value is determined to estimate the net realisable value. The net realisable value as
determined by the independent registered valuer, exceeds the carrying value of development property.
11.Investment properties

11.Investment properties – continued
The fair value measurement was categorised as Level 3 (highest of the fair value hierarchy) based on the inputs to the valuation
methodology used i.e. primarily the income capitalisation approach with discounted cash flow and depreciated replacement cost
approaches used to corroborate.
Investment properties are properties held either to earn rental income or capital appreciation or for both, but not for sale in the
ordinary course of business, use in the production or supply of goods and services, or for administrative purposes.
Investment properties are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes
expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the investment properties. Costs of self-constructed investment properties
include costs of materials and direct labour, any other costs directly attributable to bringing the investment properties to a working
condition for their intended use and capitalised borrowing costs. Gains and losses on disposal of investment properties (calculated
as the difference between the net proceeds from disposal and the carrying amounts of the investment properties) are recognised in
the profit and loss.
Land is not depreciated. Depreciation on the investment properties is computed by asset classes using the straight-line method to
allocate their cost to their residual values over their estimated useful lives, as follows:
• Building core 50 years
• Building surfaces and finishes 30 years
• Building services 20 – 30 years
No residual values are ascribed to building surfaces and finishes. Residual values ascribed to building core depend on the nature,
location and tenure of each property. Depreciable values of 10% are ascribed to building core.
Impairment
Annual reviews of the carrying amounts of investment properties are undertaken for indicators of impairment. Where indicators of
impairment were identified, the recoverable amounts were estimated based on external valuations undertaken. The cash generating
units (CGU) are individual properties. The recoverable amounts of the investment properties, being the higher of the fair value less
costs to sell and value-in-use, were predominantly determined using the fair value less costs to sell basis and were estimated using
primarily the income capitalisation approach with discounted cash flow and depreciated replacement cost approaches used to
corroborate.
During the year, management identified two (2023: two) properties with a carrying value of $14.5 million (2023: $13.7 million) that
had indicators of impairment. Average market capitalisation rates appropriate to the properties range from 6.25% to 7.25% (2023:
6.50% to 7.00%). Average market rent per square metre rates appropriate to the properties range from $318 to $396 (2023: $341
to $358). There is no impairment expense recognised in the period (2023: no impairment).
Operating lease
The Group leases out its investment property. The Group has classified these leases as operating leases, because they do not
transfer substantially all of the risks and rewards incidental to the ownership of the assets.
Rental income recognised by the Group during 2024 was $2.7 million (2023: $2.49 million).
The following table sets out a maturity analysis of lease payments, showing the undiscounted lease payments to be received after
the reporting date:

Trade and other receivables are stated at their cost less impairment losses. The carrying amounts of the trade receivables, other
trade receivables, and prepayments are reviewed at each balance date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment.
The Group applies the simplified approach to providing for expected credit losses prescribed by NZ IFRS 9, which permits the use of
the lifetime expected credit loss provision for all trade receivables. The allowance for doubtful debts on trade receivables are either
individually or collectively assessed based on number of days overdue. The Group takes into account the historical loss experience
and incorporates forward looking information and relevant macroeconomic factors

The Group has adopted classification of liabilities as current or non-current (amendments to NZIAS 1) from 1 January 2024.The bank
facilities are secured over hotel properties with a carrying amount of $83.25 million (2023: $75.33 million) – refer to Note 9. The Group
facilities were renewed on 22 December 2023 with a new maturity date of 31 January 2027. The Group has complied with the bank
covenants. The interest-bearing borrowings were classified as non-current as the Group has an existing right to defer settlement of
the loan for at least 12 months after the reporting period.
Interest-bearing loans and borrowings
Interest-bearing loans and borrowings are recognised initially at fair value less attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial
recognition, interest-bearing loans and borrowings are stated at amortised cost with any difference between cost and redemption
value being recognised in the income statement over the period of the borrowings on an effective interest basis.
15.Deferred tax assets and liabilities
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of the temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial
reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The following temporary differences are not provided for: goodwill
not deductible for tax purposes; the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that neither affect accounting nor taxable profit; and
differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will probably not reverse in the foreseeable future. The
amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and
liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the balance date.
A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the
asset can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be
realised.
Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities are offset only if the Group has a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets
against current tax liabilities; the Group intends to settle net; and the deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to
income taxes levied by the same taxation authority.
Impact of change in tax depreciation
In 2020 as part of the response to the Covid-19, all components of commercial buildings were able to be depreciated for tax
purposes. On 28 March 2024, the Taxation (Annual Rates for 2023-24, Multinational Tax, and Remedial Matters) legislation was
enacted, encompassing a range of changes to tax legislation including the removal of the tax deduction for depreciation on building
core of commercial buildings. As a result of the change in legislation, income tax expense and deferred tax liability has increased
by $25.8m for the year.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2024
The accompanying notes form part of, and should be read in conjunction with, these financial statements.
FIN 23
17.Financial instruments - continued
On initial recognition, a financial asset is classified as subsequently measured at: Amortised cost; FVOCI- debt investment; FVOCI-
equity investment; or FVTPL. Financial liabilities are classified as measured at amortised cost or FVTPL.
Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition unless the Group changes its business model for managing
financial assets, in which case all affected financial assets are reclassified on the first day of the first reporting period following the
change in the business model.
A financial asset is measured at amortised cost if it meets both of the following conditions and not designated at FVTPL:
•It is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets to collect contractual cash flows: and
•Its contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal
amount outstanding.
Financial assets are derecognised if the Group’s contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial assets expire or if the Group
transfer the financial asset to another party without retaining control or substantially all risks and rewards of the asset. Financial
liabilities are derecognised if the Group’s obligations specified in the contract expire or are discharged or cancelled.
Exposure to credit, liquidity and market risks arises in the normal course of the Group’s business.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk represents the Group’s ability to meet its contractual obligations. The Group evaluates its liquidity requirements on an
ongoing basis. In general, the Group generates sufficient cash flows from its operating activities to meet its obligations arising from
its financial liabilities. The Group’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient
liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking
damage to the Group’s reputation.
The following table sets out the undiscounted contractual and expected cash flows for all financial liabilities:
2024
2023
Credit risk
Management has a credit policy in place and the exposure to credit risk is monitored on an ongoing basis. Credit evaluations are
performed on all customers requiring credit over a certain amount. The Group does not require collateral in respect of financial assets.
There are no significant aged debtors which have not been fully provided for.
Investments are allowed only in short-term financial instruments and only with counterparties (minimum rating of Moody’s Aa3)
approved by the Board, such that the exposure to a single counterparty is minimized.

The related party advances to Marquee Hotel Holdings Pty Ltd detailed in note 20 were part of the acquisition of the Sofitel Brisbane
Central hotel in Queensland. At balance date there were no indicators of impairment of the advances based on asset condition,
economic environment and trading results of the hotel.
At balance date there were no significant non-related party concentrations of credit risk. The maximum exposure to credit risk is
represented by the carrying amount of each financial asset in the statement of financial position. The maximum exposure to credit
risk for non-related party advances in Australia is $8,300 (2023: $11,000). All other credit risk exposure relates to New Zealand.
Market risk
(i) Interest rate risk
In managing interest rate risks the Group aims to reduce the impact of short-term fluctuations on the Group’s earnings with an ongoing
review of its exposure to changes in interest rates on its borrowings, the maturity profile of the debt, and the cash flows of the
underlying debt. The Group maintains its borrowings at fixed rates on short term which gives the Group flexibility in the context of the
economic climate, business cycle, loan covenants, cash flows, and cash balances.
An increase of 1.0% in interest rates on deposits would have increased profit before tax for the Group in the current period by $0.64
million (2023: $1.43 million increase), assuming all other variables remained constant.
Effective interest and re-pricing analysis
In respect of income-earning financial assets and interest-bearing financial liabilities the following table indicates their effective
interest rates at the balance date and the periods in which they re-price.
* These assets / (liabilities) bear interest at a fixed rate
(ii)Foreign currency risk
The Group owns 100.00% (2023: 100.00%) of KIN Holdings Limited. Substantially all the operations of this subsidiary which includes
the Joint Venture is denominated in foreign currencies. The foreign currencies giving rise to this risk are Australian Dollars. The Group
has determined that the primary risk affects the carrying values of the net investments and loan receivable from its foreign operations
as disclosed in note 20 with the currency movements being recognised in the foreign currency translation reserves and income
statement respectively. The Group has not taken any instruments to manage this risk. The Group is not exposed to any other foreign
currency risks.
Capital management
The Group’s capital includes share capital and retained earnings.
The Group’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain future
development of the business. The impact of the level of capital on shareholders’ return is also recognised and the Group recognises
the need to maintain a balance between the higher returns that might be possible with greater gearing and the advantages and
security afforded by a sound capital position.
The Group is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.
The allocation of capital is, to a large extent, driven by optimisation of the return achieved on the capital allocated.
The Group’s policies in respect of capital management and allocation are reviewed regularly by the Board of Directors. There were
no changes in the Group’s capital management policies during the year.

Estimation of fair values
The following summarises the major methods and assumptions used in estimating the fair values of financial instruments reflected in
the table:
(a)Cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and related party balances. The carrying amounts for these balances approximate
their fair value because of the short maturities of these items.
(b)Borrowings. The carrying amounts for the borrowings represent their fair values because the interest rates are reset to market
periodically, every 1 to 2 months.

20.Group entities - continued
Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. The Company controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable
returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The financial
statements of subsidiaries are included in the financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control
ceases.
Transactions eliminated on consolidation
Intra-group balances and any unrealised gains and losses or income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are
eliminated in preparing the financial statements. Unrealised gains arising from transactions with jointly controlled entities are
eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the entity. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains,
but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.
21.Accounting estimates and judgements
Management discussed with the Audit Committee the development, selection and disclosure of the Group’s critical accounting policies
and estimates and the application of these policies and estimates.
Critical accounting judgements in applying the Group’s accounting policies
Certain critical accounting judgements in applying the Group’s accounting policies are described below.
Development property
The Group is also exposed to a risk of impairment to development properties should the carrying value exceed the net realisable
value due to market fluctuations in the value of development properties. However, there is no indication of impairment as the net
realisable value of development properties significantly exceed the carrying value determined by an independent registered valuer.
The valuer adopts the Sales Comparison Approach to determine rates per hectare/per square metre for block land holdings in addition
to recent section sales to derive the gross realisation values. The net realisable values are determined from gross realisation values
after deducting appropriate selling costs.
For residential land under development and is yet to commence development in the short term, the valuer adopts the Residual
Subdivision Approach. This approach considers the gross realisation values of the sections less costs associated with development
including GST, sales commissions, legal fees, civil and development costs including Council contributions, professional fees, and
contingency allowances. In addition, holding costs are deducted for the estimated timing of development and sell down periods.
In both valuation approaches, the valuer makes assumptions relating to section prices, sell down periods, consumer confidence,
unemployment rates, interest rates, and external economic factors. These assumptions are sensitive to economic factors such as net
migration, Official Cash Rate set by the Reserve Bank, inflation, residential market activity, and business confidence.
Investment property
The Group is also exposed to a risk of impairment to investment properties should the carrying value exceed the recoverable amount
due to market fluctuations in the value of investment properties. However, there is no indication of impairment as the recoverable
amount determined by an independent registered valuer significantly exceeds the carrying value of investment properties. In
determining the recoverable amount, the valuer adopts the Income Capitalisation Approach whereby the assessed market rent for
each asset is capitalised in perpetuity from the valuation date at an appropriate capitalisation rate, and uses the discounted cash flow
and depreciated replacement cost approaches to corroborate. The adopted capitalisation rate reflects the nature, location, and
tenancy profile of the property together with current market investment criteria as evidenced by recent sales. The recoverable amount
is sensitive to movements in the adopted capitalisation rate and the market rent.
Property, plant, and equipment
The Group determines whether tangible fixed assets are impaired when indicators of impairments exist or based on the annual
impairment assessment. The annual assessment requires an estimate of the recoverable value of the cash generating units to which
the tangible fixed assets are allocated, which is predominantly at the individual hotel site level. The recoverable amounts of the
Group’s cash generating units or individual assets are based on fair value less cost of disposal or value in use determined by an
independent valuer. The valuation methods used require the independent appraiser to make a number of assumptions including
estimating the future cash flows expected to arise from the cash-generating units, suitable discount, capitalisation and square meter
rates, as well as value per room, to determine the recoverable value.
22.Lease
At inception of a contract, the Group assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the
contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To assess
whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, the Group uses the definition of a lease in NZ IFRS 16.
This policy is applied to contracts entered into, on or after 1 January 2019.
At commencement or on modification of a contract that contains a lease component, the Group allocates the consideration in the
contract to each lease component on the basis of its relative stand-alone prices.
The Group recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right-of-use asset was
recognised at cost on initial recognition, which comprised the initial amount of the lease liability adjusted for any lease payments
made at or before the commencement date, plus any initial direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to dismantle and remove
the underlying asset or to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentives received.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2024
The accompanying notes form part of, and should be read in conjunction with, these financial statements.
FIN 28
22.Lease - continued
The right of use asset is depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement date to the end of the lease term,
unless the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the Group by the end of the lease term or the cost of the right-of-
use asset reflects that the Group will exercise a purchase option. In that case the right-of-use asset will be depreciated over the
useful life of the underlying asset, which is determined on the same basis as those of property and equipment. In addition, the right-
of-use asset is periodically reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for certain re-measurements of the lease liability.
22(a) Lease Liability
The expected contractual undiscounted cash outflows of lease liabilities are as follows:
Group
Dollars In Thousands 2024 2023
Less than 6 months 1,110 1,081
More than 6 months but within 12 months 1,156 1,079
More than 1 year but within 2 years 2,227 2,253
More than 2 years but within 5 years 6,232 10,507
After 5 years 93,666 91,584
104,391 106,504
The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date,
discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group’s incremental borrowing
rate. Generally, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate.
The Group determines its incremental borrowing rate by obtaining interest rates from various external financing sources and makes
certain adjustments to reflect the terms of the lease and type of the asset leased.
Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise the following:
-fixed payments, including in-substance fixed payments;
-variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, initially measured using the index or rate as at the commencement
date;
-amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee; and
-the exercise price under a purchase option that the Group is reasonably certain to exercise, lease payments in an optional
renewal period if the Group is reasonably certain to exercise an extension option, and penalties for early termination of a lease
unless the Group is reasonably certain not to terminate early.
The lease liability is measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. It is remeasured when there is a change in
future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, if there is a change in the Group’s estimate of the amount expected
to be payable under a residual value guarantee, if the Group changes its assessment of whether it will exercise a purchase,
extension or termination option or if there is a revised in-substance fixed lease payment.
When the lease liability is remeasured in this way, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the right-of-use
asset, or is recorded in profit or loss if the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset has been reduced to zero.
The Group presents right-of-use assets that do not meet the definition of investment property in ‘property, plant and equipment’ and
lease liabilities in the Statement of Financial Position.
Short-term leases and leases of low-value assets
The Group has elected not to recognise right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases of low-value assets and short-term leases,
including IT equipment. The Group recognises the lease payments associated with these leases as an expense on a straight-line
basis over the lease term.

23.New standard and interpretations issued but not yet adopted
A number of amended standards are effective for annual periods beginning after 1 January 2025 and earlier application is permitted.
The Group has not early adopted any new or amended standards in preparing the consolidated financial statements.
The Group is in the process of finalising the evaluation of impact from the following new and amended standards, including changes
in the Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements in line with NZ IFRS 18. The Group does not expect material financial
impact from these new and amended standards but note this may change the presentation and disclosures of the consolidated
financial statements.
•Amendments to NZ IAS21 Lack of Exchangeability.
•Amendments to NZ IFRS 9 and NZ IFRS 7 Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments.
•Annual Improvements to NZ IFRS Accounting Standards – Volume 11.

24.Investment in joint venture
A joint venture is an arrangement in which the Group has joint control, over the financial and operating policies. They are accounted
for using the equity method. The financial statements include the Group’s share of the income, expenses and reserves of the joint
venture from the date that joint control commences until the date that joint control ceases. When the Group’s share of losses exceeds
its interest in an equity accounted investee, the carrying amount of that interest (including any long-term investments) is reduced to
nil and the recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Group has an obligation or has made payments
on behalf of the joint venture.
During the previous year, the Group through Kingsgate Holdings Pty Limited (100% subsidiary) formed a 50:50 joint venture with its
Parent Company to acquire the leasehold assets and the freehold assets of the Sofitel Brisbane Central hotel in Queensland,
Australia. The joint venture is Marquee Hotel Holdings Pty Limited. Within the Marquee Hotel Holdings group, there are six wholly
owned entities. Marquee Hotel Holdings group completed the acquisition of the Sofitel Brisbane Central on 15 December 2023. The
hotel is managed by an external hotel management group.
The Group’s share of profit in its joint venture for the year was $1.508m (2023: $0.073m).

The acquisition of the Mayfair Hotel Christchurch was completed on 22 January 2025. This was a freehold acquisition of the existing
67 room hotel which was originally opened mid-2022 and located at 155 Victoria Street, Christchurch for $31.9m. Refer also the NZX
announcement made 22 January 2025.
Post balance date, the purchase of 6.5 hectares of land for $13.3 million in Hamilton was settled during January 2025. The settlement
will be recognised as an increase in land classified as development property in 2025.
On 10 February 2025, Millennium & Copthorne Hotels New Zealand Limited (MCK) received a takeover offer from CDL Hotels
Holdings New Zealand Limited (CDLHH NZ) for $2.25 per share for all shares not already held by CDLHH NZ, which currently holds
75.8% of MCK’s shares. The MCK Independent Directors considered the offer too low and inadequate, as it did not reflect the value
of MCK’s assets and recovery potential. They advised shareholders to take no action until the Target Company Statement, including
an independent assessment by Northington Partners Limited, is published on 24 February 2025. The offer is conditional and must
remain open until at least 8 May 2025.
The offer includes a condition preventing MCK from declaring or paying a dividend from 20 January 2025 until the offer is unconditional
or lapses. Despite MCK's Independent Committee requesting a waiver to allow a final dividend for the 2024 financial year, CDLHH
NZ did not agree. Consequently, MCK will not declare a final dividend for 2024.

Independent Auditor’s Report
To the Shareholders of Millennium & Copthorne Hotels New Zealand Limited (Group)
Report on the audit of the consolidated financial statements
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying consolidated
financial statements which comprise:
the consolidated statement of financial position as
at 31 December 2024;
the consolidated income statement, statements of
comprehensive income, changes in equity and
cash flows for the year then ended; and
notes, including material accounting policy
information and other explanatory information.
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated
financial statements of Millennium & Copthorne
Hotels New Zealand Limited (the Company) and its
subsidiaries (the Group) on pages 1 to 31 present
fairly in all material respects:
the Group’s financial position as at 31
December 2024 and its financial
performance and cash flows for the year
ended on that date;
In accordance with New Zealand
Equivalents to International Financial
Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS) issued by
the New Zealand Accounting Standards
Board and the International Financial
Reporting Standards issued by the
International Accounting Standards Board.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand) (ISAs (NZ)). We
believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
We are independent of Millennium & Copthorne Hotels New Zealand Limited in accordance with Professional and
Ethical Standard 1 International Code of Ethics for Assurance Practitioners (Including International Independence
Standards) (New Zealand) issued by the New Zealand Auditing and Assurance Standards Board and the
International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’ International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants
(including International Independence Standards) (IESBA Code), as applicable to audits of financial statements of
public interest entities. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with Professional and
Ethical Standards 1 and the IESBA Code.
Our responsibilities under ISAs (NZ)(Revised) are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of
the consolidated financial statements section of our report.
Our firm has provided other services to the Group in relation to agreed upon procedures, tax compliance, taxation
advisory and limited assurance services in respect of Green House Gas Emissions reporting. Subject to certain
restrictions, partners and employees of our firm may also deal with the Group on normal terms within the ordinary
course of trading activities of the business of the Group. These matters have not impaired our independence as
auditor of the Group. The firm has no other relationship with, or interest in, the Group.
Materiality
The scope of our audit was influenced by our application of materiality. Materiality helped us to determine the
nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures and to evaluate the effect of misstatements, both individually and
on the consolidated financial statements as a whole. The materiality for the consolidated financial statements as a
whole was set at $4.75m determined with reference to a benchmark of the Group’s total assets. We chose the
benchmark because, in our view, this is a key measure of the Group’s performance.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of
the consolidated financial statements in the current period. We summarise below those matters and our key audit
procedures to address those matters in order that the Shareholders as a body may better understand the process
by which we arrived at our audit opinion.
Our procedures were undertaken in the context of and solely for the purpose of our audit opinion on the
consolidated financial statements as a whole and we do not express discrete opinions on separate elements of the
consolidated financial statements.
The key audit matter How the matter was addressed in our audit
Impairment of hotel assets
Refer to Note 9 to the financial
statements.
Impairment of hotel assets is a key audit
matter given the magnitude of the
balance (hotel assets being 37% of total
assets), conditions that indicate potential
impairment and the judgement required
by us in assessing the group’s key
valuation assumptions to determine the
value of specific hotel assets.
The recoverable amount of hotel assets
was determined by an external valuer.
We focused on the key assumptions in
the valuation models including the
projected occupancy rates, average
daily room rates (ADRs), discount rates,
terminal capitalisation rates,
capitalisation rates and square metre
rates. Due to the ongoing recovery of
international travel from COVID-19,
current economic conditions including
recession and high interest rates, and
lower level of sales evidence from
comparable market transactions, the
level of estimation uncertainty in the
valuation remains heightened compared
to stable market conditions.
Our audit procedures included:
• Evaluating the group’s determination of the appropriate unit of measure
for impairment testing purposes, or changes thereto, the cash-generating
unit (“CGU”).
• Assessing each hotel asset for impairment indicators with consideration
of changes in contractual arrangements, economic conditions, financial
performance, physical quality of the underlying asset and capital
expenditure requirements, among other factors.
• Assessing the scope of work performed, competency, professional
qualifications, independence, and experience of the external valuers
engaged by the group. This included direct enquiry and challenge of the
external valuers’ methods and assumptions.
• Assessing the appropriateness of the valuation methodology applied by
the external valuers with reference to accepted methods approved by our
internal valuation specialists.
• Challenging the group’s key valuation assumptions (occupancy rates,
ADRs, projected direct costs, discount rates, capitalisation rates and
terminal capitalisation rates) included in the external valuations by:
comparing to externally derived data from hotel industry reports and
other market data.
assessing the relevance and reasonableness of the key assumptions
with reference to rates used in the prior year external valuations, financial
performance and recent market evidence presented by the valuer.
• Assessing the accuracy of the external valuer’s and management’s
previous forecasts to inform our evaluation of the forecasts incorporated
into the valuation models. This included comparing actual occupancy
The key audit matter How the matter was addressed in our audit
rates, ADRs and direct costs to the assumptions projected over the
forecast period and used in the prior period valuations.
•Assessing hotels that are most sensitive to impairment using sensitivity
analysis over key assumptions and comparing the headroom.
•Assessing the adequacy of the disclosures made in the financial
statements by using our understanding obtained from our testing and
against the requirements of the relevant accounting standards.
We did not identify material exceptions from procedures performed, and
the financial statement disclosure is consistent with the requirements of
the accounting standards.
Capitalisation and allocation of development costs
Refer to Note 10 to the financial
statements.
The group’s development property
comprises land and development costs
incurred to develop land into
subdivisions and individual properties for
s
ale. The development property
portfolio represents 35% of total assets
on the consolidated statement of
financial position.
The capitalisation and allocation of
development costs is
a key audit matter
as determining whether to capitalise or
expense costs relating to development
of land is subjective, as
it depends on
whether the costs enhance the land or
maintain the current value. In addition,
there is significant judgement in
determining whether
obligations exist for
future costs and how to allocate
capitalised development costs to
individual properties or stages.
The key judgements used in this
determination are:
•Whether costs are eligible for
capitalisation under the relevant
accounting standards.
•the allocation of capitalised costs to
the individual projects, stages and
land lots and the associated
recognition of cost of sales.
•Whether a capitalised cost and the
associated liability for future
obligations should be recorded
under the relevant accounting
standard.
Our audit procedures included:
•Evaluating the group’s accounting policy for capitalisation of
development costs using the criteria in the accounting standard.
•Developing an understanding of the key controls over the cost
capitalisation and allocation process.
•Agreeing a sample of capitalised development costs to supporting
documentation. For each selected transaction we:
-considered the nature of the costs capitalised and evaluated
whether they are eligible for capitalisation under the relevant
accounting standard.
-assessed the appropriateness of allocation to the individual project
stages and land lots.
•Agreeing a sample of land acquisitions to sales and purchase
agreements, settlement document and cash payment.
•Performing analytical procedures in relation development property
costs of sales to assess that margins recognised between periods
were appropriate, including considering alternative methods of
allocation.
•Performing a retrospective review of the forecast costs and cost of
sales to ensure the reasonableness of forecast cost estimation.
•Evaluating the reasonableness of the group’s judgement to record
liabilities for future obligations and that these have been appropriately
measured and recorded in accordance with the applicable
accounting standard.
•Assessing disclosures included in the consolidated financial
statements in respect of the development properties using our
understanding obtained from our testing and against the
requirements of the accounting standards.
Our testing did not identify any material exceptions related to capitalised
development costs, the allocation of those costs to individual project stages
and the recognition of future development cost obligations.

In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements our responsibility is to read the other
information and in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated
financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed on the other information that we obtained prior to the date of this auditor’s
report, we conclude there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
The Annual Report and Annual Climate Statement are expected to be made available to us after the date of the
Independent Auditor’s Report and we will report the matters identified, if any, to those charged with governance.
Use of this independent auditor’s report
This independent auditor’s report is made solely to the Shareholders. Our audit work has been undertaken so that
we might state to the Shareholders those matters we are required to state to them in the independent auditor’s
report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, none of KPMG, any entities directly or
indirectly controlled by KPMG, or any of their respective members or employees, accept or assume any

Responsibilities of Directors for the consolidated financial
statements
The Directors, on behalf of the Group, are responsible for:
— the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with NZ
IFRS issued by the New Zealand Accounting Standards Board and the International Financial Reporting
Standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board;
— implementing the necessary internal control to enable the preparation of a consolidated set of financial
statements that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; and
— assessing the ability of the Group to continue as a going concern. This includes disclosing, as
applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless

Our objective is:
— to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but it is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in
accordance with ISAs NZ will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error. They are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they
could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the
consolidated financial statements.

• Operating profit $42.5m, up 32.1%
• Profit before tax $47.1m, up 25.6%
• Profit after tax of $2.8m attributable to MCK shareholders includes a one off, non-cash

• Total Assets $762.3m (2023: $746.8m) which includes property assets at a book value of
$694.1m. Fair market value of property assets assessed as $1.1b as at 31 December 2024

• Net asset backing per share on market value basis assessed as $5.39 per share
3
.
24 February 2025: Millennium & Copthorne Hotels New Zealand Limited (the Company, MCK) (NZX:
MCK) has announced its results for the 12 months to 31 December (FY24), reporting a significant uplift
in revenue and a continued improvement in profit before tax despite the weaker tourism and
property markets in 2024.
The improvement was driven by continued positive growth in the NZ Hotel business, with CDL
Investments delivering a solid result as the cooldown in the property market has started to stabilise.
The company has continued to build the value of its hotel and property portfolio, which grew to $1.1b
as at 31 December 2024
2
. Significant milestones have been achieved as MCK continues to progress its
long term refurbishment and upgrade of hotel properties. The full benefits from these initiatives will
be seen in future years. Land was acquired in Whangarei for a future hotel and, following financial
year-end, MCK settled the acquisition of The Mayfair Hotel in Christchurch for $31.9m, further
expanding its network.
FY24 was the first year of ownership in the 50% joint venture which acquired the Sofitel Brisbane
Hotel in December 2023. The hotel has seen consistent and strong demand across all major segments
following a soft Q1, and an increased profit contribution is expected in FY25.
Sales of the Zenith Apartments in Sydney are continuing, with nine apartments sold during the year
and the remaining 22 apartments either held for sale or rented. The company will continue to
progress further sales during 2025.
MCK’s chairman, Colin Sim, said: “The strong results demonstrate the resilience of our business and
the value of the Revive and Thrive strategy. We are now nearing the end of the Revive stage and
expect to move to Thrive in late 2025.
1
Includes one-off deferred tax adjustment of $25.8m, made as a result of government legislation change.
2
Unaudited, assessed market valuation based on analysis by independent property experts as at 31 December 2024.Includes
100% of: NZ hotels, Zenith Apartments, and CDI property assets; and 50% Sofitel Brisbane Hotel.
3
Adjusted for MCK proportion of shareholding being 100% NZ hotels and Zenith Apartments, 65% of CDI and 50% Sofitel
Brisbane and including an allowance for tax on the revaluation of property assets.
“We continue to invest into targeted growth opportunities that will add value for our shareholders.
Over the past few years, we have invested significantly in refurbishing and upgrading our hotels and
have expanded our network through acquisition. We have also identified surplus land adjacent to our
hotels (including at Rotorua, Queenstown and Palmerston North), which provide optionality for
further development or sale.
“The long-term macro drivers for our business are positive – the tourism and property markets are
both expected to start to recover in the coming year; New Zealand is a top tourist destination and
tourism is New Zealand’s second highest export earner. We are well positioned to benefit as visitor
numbers build up again over the coming year, with a national network of quality hotels in attractive
locations, many of which have been recently refurbished.”
Financial Performance
For the FY24 year, MCK delivered its highest revenue result in five years, with a 21.0% yoy increase to
$176.2m.
Operating profit increased 32.1% yoy to $42.5m, as a result of increased revenue and a focus on cost
management. Profit before tax was up 25.6% yoy to $47.1m. Income Tax expense included a $25.8m
one off, non-cash deferred tax adjustment (as noted in the 1H24 results release). Profit after tax
attributable to MCK shareholders of $2.8m would have been $27.2m excluding the one-off tax
adjustment impact.
CDL Investments New Zealand Limited (CDI), MCK’s 65% owned subsidiary, improved its pre-tax
performance in 2024 against the previous year. CDI reported revenue of $49.1m and profit before tax
of $26.8m. Profit after tax was $15.4m, including a one-off non-cash tax liability adjustment of
approximately $3.9m.
These results confirm that property markets in New Zealand are showing signs
of improvement and there is now a positive momentum shift.
The company has a robust balance sheet, with a net cash position of $41.3m as at 31 December 2024.
Bank debt was $3.0m at year end, with a further drawdown in January 2025 for the $31.9m
settlement of The Mayfair Hotel. The book value of property assets was $694.1m, with the fair
market value assessed as $1.1b
2
, contributing to a market value NTA per share attributable to MCK
shareholders of $5.39 per share
3
.
A final dividend was not declared for FY24 due to the conditions of the CDLHH NZ takeover offer
currently in process, which prevents a dividend from being paid.
2025 Outlook
The expected improvement in the tourism and property markets will directly benefit both MCK and
CDI.
MCK Managing Director, Stuart Harrison, said: “Our strong FY24 demonstrates the progress we are
making on our strategy and we are poised to Thrive from late 2025 onwards. We are focused on the
ongoing control over the controllables with strong staffing levels and increasing room capacity. Our
refurbishment and upgrades of key hotel properties are substantially complete, delivering an
increased number of rooms available for sale in 2025. Our teams are highly focused on securing
business across all market segments and in all regions as we grow the My Millennium loyalty scheme
and encourage customer bookings. We will also be identifying and assessing opportunities for surplus
land at several of our hotels.”
CDI are looking to advance development works across key sites, particularly the two projects in
Hamilton and the Hawkes Bay, which were included in the Fast-track approvals legislation. With a
number of pre-titled residential section sales from the Iona and Prestons Park developments in-hand
and work already underway developing additional stages, these developments will be critical to their
results and success in 2025.
Stuart said: “There is no question that MCK has a positive future ahead of it and will continue to be a
leading hotel owner and operator in New Zealand for many years to come. 2025 represents MCK’s
30th year of continuous operations in New Zealand and we intend to continue delivering quality
customer experiences for another thirty years and more.”
