BREMWORTH LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES
HALF YEAR REVIEW - CHAIR AND CEO COMMENTARY

Dear Shareholders

We are pleased to update you on our operating and financial performance in the first half of FY25.

While it is still early days, there are positive signs that the business is recovering:

•Our hybrid supply chain is working and we have invested in inventory for future growth;


•Revenue growth has returned to the business, particularly strongly in the first 7 weeks of Q3;


Investing in growth

Positive revenue growth but below expectations

We launched new ranges across our Bremworth-branded carpets as well as new white label ranges for our retail partners;

We’re re-entering the commercial segment in Australia, exploring new contract manufacturing opportunities and making

progress on opportunities to enter the US market, albeit in a deliberate and controlled way.

While there are reasons to be positive, we experienced some margin compression in our carpet business (challenging market

conditions and supply chain inefficiencies) and cash outflows in the first half of FY25. The cash outflows were largely due to the

decision to invest in growth.

Management is confident that margins will recover and cash outflows will materially reduce over the next 12-18 months as we

leverage higher inventory levels, execute on cost savings and grow the business.

In the wake of Cyclone Gabrielle, the company began to run short of available stock. This manifested itself mostly with our customers

in Australia, who in many cases we were unable to supply. This shortage was experienced for almost a year as new suppliers were put

in place and stock rebuilt.

We are pleased to report an increase in raw materials (primarily woollen spun yarn) to $18.4m (previously $8.0m in 1H24). With

inventory back to pre-cyclone levels, our retail partners have confidence that Bremworth can meet orders without delay.

For these reasons, we expect our strongest growth to come from Australia and we monitor "active customers" and "order to

fulfilment" rates to ensure that both key measures are creating a good experience for our customers. Pleasingly, both are moving

strongly in the right direction.

While inventory levels grew and total revenue increased by 8% (vs. 1H24), the growth in revenue was lower than we had forecast.

Economic pressures in both countries have contributed to these results, with retailers commenting on lower foot traffic, competitive

pricing pressures and a greater number of deferrals occurring as consumers tighten spending, particularly in New Zealand.

The core carpet business improved by $1.0m (vs. 1H24). Australian carpet revenue was up 5% ($0.7m). New Zealand comparable

revenue was up 1% ($0.2m). While still early days, our performance in Q3 so far is encouraging. The number of active customers is

growing across all geographies driving sales in carpet & rugs.

Elco Direct had a strong first half, with sales growth of 29% on 1H24, driven by higher wool prices. Elco Direct has also had a record

month to start the calendar year. The Elco business is a key strategic asset to provide access to quality wool, volumes and consistent

Strategic Review

Over the last few months, the Board received inbound interest in Bremworth from external parties. To manage this interest and help

identify the highest value owner for Bremworth, the Board established a committee of independent Directors and engaged external

advisors. The Strategic Review may take several months to complete.

Gross margins in our carpet business, not unexpectedly, reduced from 33% in 1H24 to 31% in 1H25 (excluding provisions) due a

product mix shift to lower margin products and competition in the value end of the market. Overall gross margins reduced from 27%

in 1H24 to 21% in 1H25 though this is largely a reflection of the strong revenue growth in our lower margin Elco business.

To address the impact on our business from softer market conditions, we will further reduce our cost base to better reflect the size of

the business today, whilst still enabling growth in FY26 and beyond. The full benefit of cost savings will be realised in FY26.

We remain confident that Bremworth will grow market share in New Zealand and Australia through our wholesale sales channel. We

are strengthening these supplier partnerships and seeing pleasing results, with the number of active customers growing month on

month.

In particular, we expect to continue growing market share in Australia through inventory availability, new commercial products

coming online and traction from new differentiated products launched in Q1 and Q2.

Further, the United States is the largest soft flooring market in the world and is a logical next step for Bremworth. We are in advanced

discussions with potential partners for expansion to take place in FY26. Volumes are yet to be confirmed.

We are pleased to have reached a final settlement in relation to Cyclone Gabrielle insurance claims. Earlier in February, we received

final cash proceeds of $42m.

We are nearing completion of the key works required in Napier. No further reinstatement of machinery is planned at this stage. We

will focus on existing assets to produce products and new revenue streams through the plant including contract dyeing. There is also

potential for subleasing to support cashflow being investigated.

While we experienced cash outflows in 1H25, we are confident in materially reducing our cash outflow to enable the return of excess

cash to shareholders. The amount returned to shareholders and timing of this depends on the performance of the business, as well

as the outcome of the Strategic Review.

28 February 2025

With the actions taken to date, seeing revenue and volumes grow and further disciplined cost management to occur across the

organisation, the Board remain committed to the business being cash flow positive and profitable in FY26, which will enable the

resumption of dividend payments. Bremworth’s Directors and management team would like to thank you for your continued support.

1GENERAL INFORMATION

Reporting entity

The principal activities of the Group comprise wool acquisition and woollen carpet and rug manufacturing and sales.

All Group subsidiaries are wholly-owned.

Basis of preparation

The consolidated interim financial statements are condensed financial statements that have been prepared in accordance

with NZ IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The disclosures normally required by other standards within New Zealand

Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS) to be included in a complete set of annual financial

statements are not required to be incorporated into a condensed set of interim financial statements prepared under NZ IAS 34.

As a consequence, the consolidated interim financial statements do not comply with NZ IFRS.

These consolidated interim financial statements are presented in New Zealand dollars ($) which is the Company's functional

currency. Unless otherwise indicated, all financial information presented in New Zealand dollars has been rounded to the

nearest thousand.

The consolidated interim financial statements, and the comparative information for the six months ended 31 December 2023,

are unaudited. The comparative information as at 30 June 2024 is audited.

Bremworth Limited ("Bremworth" or "the Company") is a limited liability company that is domiciled and incorporated in New

Zealand.

The Company is listed on the NZX and is required to comply with the provisions of the NZX Listing Rules which require it to

present the consolidated interim financial statements covering the Group.

The consolidated interim financial statements were approved for issue by the Board of Directors ("the Board") of the Company

on 28 February 2025.

The consolidated interim financial statements contained in this half year report are for Bremworth and its subsidiaries ("the

Group”) as at, and for the six months ended, 31 December 2024.

The Company is registered under the Companies Act 1993 and is an FMC reporting entity for the purposes of the Financial

Reporting Act 2013 and the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013. The consolidated interim financial statements have been

prepared in accordance with these Acts.

Accounting policies and critical accounting estimates and judgements

Going concern

-

-

-

-

-

The consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year

ended 30 June 2024 and the accounting policies set out therein.

In preparing the consolidated interim financial statements, the Group has consistently applied the judgements, estimates and

assumptions adopted in the preparation of the annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2024.

$7.0 million cash out flows from trading and operations, reflecting the difficult trading conditions, additional costs post

Cyclone Gabrielle and the time it is taking the business to recover from post-cyclone disruptions to carpet sales;

$10.0 million cash out flows relating to the investment in inventory that was depleted following Cyclone Gabrielle as the

business went about replenishing that inventory in order to allow the business to recover lost sales and market share;

$3.0 million cash out flows for property, plant and equipment, including the staged reinstatement of the Napier spinning

plant assets that were damaged during Cyclone Gabrielle; and

All accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those

adopted in the preparation of the annual financial statements.

Cash and cash equivalents and short term deposits at balance date of $7.5 million is down $24.1 million on the $31.6 million as

at 30 June 2024. This reflects largely the following:

$1.0 million cash out flows towards lease obligations.

$2.0 million cash out flows in relation to increase in debtors and prepayments;

Notwithstanding the significant reduction in cash and bank during the period, the Group's financial position remains strong, with

equity to total assets up from 57.3% to 57.8%, and its current ratio (measured by dividing its current assets by its current

liabilities) improving from 3.19 to 3.33. At the same time, the receipt of the final Cyclone Gabrielle insurance settlement of $42.2

million on or about 12 February 2025, as disclosed at note 13 (Events after balance date) to the consolidated interim financial

statements, will also provide the Group with significant additional liquidity.

The Group is also undertaking a review of its cost base in light of the latest results and to address, in particular, the trading and

operational cash out flows and its inventory position to better align these with the size of the business.

As a consequence, the Board considers that the Group will be able to generate sufficient cash flows to provide itself with the

liquidity required to meet its contractual obligations as they fall due in the normal course of business and to operate as a going

concern.

The Group prepares its consolidated interim financial statements on a going concern basis and expects to be able to realise its

assets and meet its financial obligations in the normal course of business.

On 17 February 2025, the Board commenced a strategic review of the Company's ownership structure as disclosed at note 13

(Events after balance date) to the consolidated interim financial statements. The decision to undertake this strategic review

followed the finalisation of Cyclone Gabrielle insurance settlement and recent approaches from parties expressing an interest in

Bremworth. No decisions have been made which affect the going concern assumption.

The Group did not recognise any further progress payments in relation to the claims made for the loss of, or damage to,

property, plant and equipment, and for the consequent disruptions to the business caused by Cyclone Gabrielle in February

2023 as income, during the six months ended 31 December 2024 (six months ended 31 December 2023: $10.0 million).

After recognising progress payments received from the insurers to date of $62.0 million, the Group received further payments

totalling $42.2 million on or about 12 February 2025, with this $42.2 million to be recognised as income in the consolidated

financial statements for the year ending 30 June 2025.

Issue of shares under the terms of the 2022 LTI Scheme

There were no other issue of performance rights, shares or options under the Bremworth 2020 Long-Term Incentive Scheme,

the Bremworth Equity Ownership Plan or the Bremworth Share Option Scheme during the period (six months ended 31

December 2023: Nil).

In accordance with the terms of the 2022 LTI Scheme, 992,093 fully paid-up ordinary shares (Scheme Shares) were issued by

the Company on 7 November 2024 to Bremworth Share Scheme Limited (Trustee), with these shares to be held by the Trustee

on behalf of the participating employees until the relevant vesting date.

The Company operates four share-based payment plans/schemes, with these plans/schemes designed to incentivise selected

employees by providing them with opportunities to be issued equity interests in the Company.

The Company has determined the performance rights, the shares and the options issued under these plans/schemes to be

equity-settled share-based payment arrangements pursuant to NZ IFRS 2 Share-based Payment.

The Company issued 1,176,989 FY25-27 performance rights under the Bremworth 2022 Long-Term Incentive Scheme (2022 LTI

Scheme) during the six months ended 31 December 2024 (six months ended 31 December 2023: Nil).

In determining the number of Scheme Shares to be issued to the Trustee, it was noted that 184,896 Scheme Shares that were

issued to the Trustee under the FY23-25 issue of performance rights in October 2022 had not vested so were available for use

under the FY25-27 issue of performance rights.

Vesting of these shares is dependent on total shareholder return (TSR) performance over the period from 27 September 2024 to

30 June 2027 exceeding the 15% per annum compounding threshold set by the Board, with TSR calculated by reference to the

volume weighted average share price on the NZX for the last 20 trading days prior to 30 June 2027 as compared to the volume

weighted average share price on the NZX for the last 20 trading days prior to 27 September 2024 of $0.4051.

$62,000, being the proportion of fair value of the options under the Bremworth Share Option Scheme and the fair value of the

performance rights under the 2022 LTI Scheme relating to the six months ended 31 December 2024, were recognised in

administration expenses in the Consolidated Interim Statement of Profit or Loss for the period, with a corresponding credit

totalling $62,000 to the share-based payment reserve within equity (six months ended 31 December 2023: $64,000 under the

Bremworth Share Option Scheme and the 2022 LTI Scheme).

The Group had outstanding commitments for the purchase of plant and equipment of $387,000 at balance date (30 June 2024:

12RISK MANAGEMENT

13EVENTS AFTER BALANCE DATE

Cyclone Gabrielle insurance settlement

The amount of the settlement was agreed at $104.2 million.

Strategic review

The review is expected to take several months, and there is no certainty that any transaction or other change will result.

On 17 February 2025, the Board commenced a strategic review of the Company's ownership structure. The decision to

undertake this strategic review followed the finalisation of Cyclone Gabrielle insurance settlement and recent approaches from

parties expressing an interest in Bremworth.

After taking into account progress payments paid to date of $62.0 million, a further $42.2 million was paid by the insurers on or

about 12 February 2025.

In relation to insurance against climate-related risks, the cover for material damage and business interruption as a

consequence of floods (with cover including the reinstated Napier dyehouse) was increased from $47.5 million to $50.0 million

at the last renewal of the Group’s insurance policy. The Group will continue to work with its insurance brokers to better

understand what would be required for its insurers to reinstate full cover against floods for the Group over time.

The Company reached a full and final settlement agreement with its insurers on 4 February 2025 in relation to the claims made

for the loss of, or damage to, property, plant and equipment, and for the consequent disruptions to the business, caused by

Cyclone Gabrielle in February 2023.

Bremworth is committed to the effective management of risk, which is fundamental to the Company's growth and profitability

targets and outcomes.

Key risks include financial risks, health and safety risks, climate-related risks, cyber risks and business and other operational

risks. Refer to the Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2024 for discussion of the Company's risk management

BREMWORTH LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES
DISCLOSURE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 (UNAUDITED)

• outlining why non-GAAP financial information is useful to investors and how it is used internally by management;

• identifying the source of non-GAAP financial information;

• ensuring that:

-

-

-

-

-

-non-GAAP financial information is unbiased; and

• taking care when describing, or referring to, items as ‘one-off’ or ‘non-recurring’.

presentation of non-GAAP financial information does not in any way confuse or obscure presentation of GAAP financial

information;

a reconciliation from the non-GAAP financial information to the most directly comparable GAAP financial information,

including that for the previous period, can be easily accessed (see page 23);

a consistent approach is adopted from period to period with respect to the presentation of non-GAAP financial

information, including that for comparative periods;

where there is any change in approach from the previous period, the nature of the change is explained and the reasons

and financial impact provided;

The disclosure of the non-GAAP financial information is also consistent with how the financial information for the Group is reported

internally, and reviewed by the Chief Executive Officer as its chief operating decision maker, and provides what the Directors and

management believe gives a more meaningful insight into the underlying financial performance of the Group and a better

understanding of how the Group is tracking after taking into account items of an abnormal nature, including items that are unlikely to

recur or otherwise unusual in nature.

Non-GAAP financial information does not have standardised meaning prescribed by GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to

similar financial information prescribed by other entities.

In putting together the half year report, the Directors have taken into account all of the requirements within the guidance note. More

specifically, these include:

non-GAAP financial information is not presented with undue and greater prominence, emphasis or authority than the

most directly comparable GAAP financial information;

The half year report for the six months ended 31 December 2024 contains financial information that is non-GAAP (Generally

Accepted Accounting Practice) and therefore falls within the Financial Markets Authority’s guidance note on “Disclosing non-GAAP

financial information” issued in July 2017.

Non-GAAP financial information has been prepared using the unaudited GAAP-compliant half year and audited GAAP-compliant full

year financial statements of the Group and has not been independently reviewed.

Non-GAAP financial information contained within the half year report (more particularly, the non-GAAP measures of financial

performance such as “EBITDA (normalised)”, “EBIT (normalised)”, “Loss before tax (normalised)” and “Loss after tax (normalised)”

provide useful information to investors regarding the performance of the Group because the calculations exclude restructuring costs

and other gains/losses (for example, Cyclone Gabrielle related insurance income and Cyclone Gabrielle related expenses) that are

not expected to occur on a regular basis either by virtue of quantum or nature.

In arriving at this view, the Directors have also taken cognisance of the requests by users of the consolidated financial statements

regarding the nature and quantum of abnormal items within the GAAP-compliant results and the way users distinguish between

GAAP and non-GAAP measures of profit.

-Regaining market share in Australia (post-Cyclone)

-Stable NZ carpet business, despite economic conditions

-Strong Elco performance

•Overall gross margin % in line with 2H24. Margin

Reinstatement of our new dyeing facilities in Napier is complete,

optimising our local, vertically integrated footprint

PAPATOETOE –tufting

•100% of our carpets are tufted at

Papatoetoe

•Tufting carpets involves unique skills &

specialist machinery

•Significant capacity to grow volumes

tufted without incremental investment

WHANGANUI –yarn spinning

•High quality felted and woollen spun yarn

•Felted yarn requires unique skills and

specialist machinery

NAPIER –dyeing and finishing

•$2.2m invested in 1H25 to reinstate dyeing

and finishing capabilities –no further

reinstatementof machinery is planned at

this stage

•We will begin contract dyeing to further

utilise capacity and grow revenue in Q3

•Woollen spun yarn is produced at

Whanganui and via external partners

The quality of externally supplied woollen spun yarn is

improvingand we are investing in growth

•Four external yarn suppliers provided the majorityof woollen spun yarn used in 1H25

-All fibre used in manufacturing our carpet is NZ wool

-The quality of external yarn has been improving, with ‘seconds’ rates continuing to

decline

•Working with external and large yarn suppliers materially increases the volume of

woollen spun yarn available to manufacture carpet at Papatoetoe (historicallylimited by

the woollen spun yarn produced at Napier and Whanganui)

•Access to large quantities of yarn also provides flexibility for us to sell new ranges and

produce large runs at short notices –so far, we’ve manufactured four new ranges with

externally produced yarn

•With growing confidence in the quality and availability of woollen spun yarn, our

strategic priority is to drive volume growth in AU, NZ and new markets with existing and

new customers

Recent investment in yarn inventory underwrites confidence in

future growth

•With confidence in our hybrid supply chain, we made

significant investment into woollen spun yarn inventory

throughout 2H24 and 1H25

•Raw materials balance (primarily woollen spun yarn)

now at $18.4m (vs $8.0m in 1H24)

•This investment in raw materials and the ability to

convert quickly into finished productensures flexibility

and speed to market, further enabling our strategy to

increase volumes

•Current inventory levels support sales demand and

future growth ambitions

Carpet gross margin impacted by the increase in inventory provisioning, excluding this

provisioning, margin is broadly stable

•Carpet gross margin (excl. provisions) down from 32.8%

in 1H24 to 31.0% in 1H25

•Carpet inventory provisioning increased to 10.7% of

inventory (vs 7.0% in 1H24), adversely impacting margins

•Small effect from product mix shift to lower margin

products. We are focused on re-balancing mix through

advances in product development

•As volumes increase gross margin to increase with

recovery of fixed production costs and improved plant

efficiency

•Cost reduction programme will also support a lift in

margins in FY26

Elco Direct continues to perform well, including providing Bremworth with

access to high-quality New Zealand strong wool

•Elco Direct sales up 29% on 1H24, driven by higher

wool prices

•EBITDA up $0.2m on 1H24, largely driven by increased

revenue

•Despite being a wholly owned subsidiary, Elco operates

on a purely stand alone financial basis

•The Elco business remains a key strategic asset

providing Bremworth with access to quality wool and
