NPAT (20.7) (16.1) (6.9)


The sales result is underpinned by an improved trend in the direct-to-consumer (“DTC”)

channel (including online) for all three brands. Group online sales performance has been a

highlight, with all three brands achieving double digit sales growth YOY. Online remains a

key growth priority for the Group.


Wholesale sales are taking longer to recover, as wholesale accounts remain cautious on pre-

season commitments in a challenging market. Forward orders and in-season buying from

key accounts support an improving wholesale trend through 2025.

KMD BRANDS LIMITED W kmdbrands.com




Gross margin decreased -0.3% of sales below last year to 58.5%, remaining resilient despite

increased promotional intensity for Kathmandu and clearance of inventory for Oboz.


All brands continue to actively manage operating expenses while facing global cost pressure.


In a challenging trading environment, net working capital efficiency is a key focus for the

Group. Net working capital at 31 January 2025 was $33.6 million lower than 31 January

2024, with reduced inventory balances YOY.

Rip Curl total sales increased +0.1% to $278.5 million, improving from -6.7% YOY during Q1

to +6.5% YOY during Q2.


DTC sales increased +4.1%, reflecting strong sales growth over the key Australasian

summer and Christmas trading period. Also, stronger results were achieved in Europe and

South America, supported by store openings. Online sales increased by +13.9% to $21.1

million, comprising 11.5% of DTC sales.


Wholesale sales decreased by -7.9% in a challenging global market. Forward orders support

improving wholesale momentum for Q1 FY26.


Gross margin increased +0.2% of sales with channel and product mix offsetting the impact of

increased promotional intensity in a tough trading environment. Operating expenses continue

to be tightly managed while facing global cost pressure.

KMD BRANDS LIMITED W kmdbrands.com



August last year, New Zealand sales increased +4.8% YOY for the remaining 5 months of 1H

FY25.


Online sales increased by +26.6% to $20.8 million, comprising 13.4% of DTC sales.


Gross margin decreased -0.4% of sales, with increased promotional intensity in a competitive

trading environment.


Kathmandu operating expenses include approximately $3 million incremental YOY to refresh

brand advertising (increased first half weighting), increase product newness and innovation,

and improve the consumer experience. Brand foundations are now in place, and sales

momentum is building.



Oboz: Sales impacted by wholesale customer caution

Total sales decreased -6.3% YOY, impacted by wholesale customer caution.


Online sales increased +32.8%, growing strongly over the Black Friday and Christmas

promotions, and reinforcing the growth opportunity for the brand.


Wholesale sales decreased -10.6% as wholesale accounts remain cautious on pre-season

commitments in a challenging market, partly offset by improved in-season buying from key

accounts. Forward orders and in-season buying from key accounts support an improving

wholesale trend through 2025.


Gross margin decreased -5.7% of sales as clearance of excess inventory has contributed to

lower gross margins YOY. Gross margin on core styles and new launches remains in line

with historical margins.


Operating expenses were tightly controlled YOY. Current levels of operating expense

investment will be leveraged with future sales growth as the market recovers.



Balance sheet


At 31 January 2025 the Group had a net debt position of $76.2 million, down $20.0 million

from $96.2 million one year earlier, and with funding headroom of approximately $215

million. January inventory investment results in typically higher net debt levels at the January

measurement point.


Net working capital was $33.6 million lower than 31 January 2024, with reduced inventory

balances YOY. Inventory positions continue to moderate back towards historical levels.


KMD BRANDS LIMITED W kmdbrands.com



As previously communicated, the dividend policy remains aligned to earnings, with a target

payout ratio of 50% to 70% of underlying NPAT. As a result of the 1H FY25 operating

performance, the Directors have not declared an interim dividend.



Trading update


DTC sales (including online) for the 7 full weeks to 16 March 2025, a seasonally non-

significant trading period for both brands:


• Kathmandu +5.2% YOY

promotional intensity in a competitive trading environment.

• Rip Curl global DTC sales for owned stores and websites approximately +0.7% YOY

Gross margin remains resilient YOY.



Outlook


Commenting on the outlook for the Group, outgoing Group CEO Michael Daly said:


“Direct-to-consumer sales have improved for all three of our brands, while the wholesale

market is taking longer to recover. Global monetary policy settings have been easing, but the

return of consumer confidence will take time.”


“We are seeing short-term gross margin pressure for all brands in a highly competitive global

market. However, our focus remains on growing gross margin in the medium-term as

markets improve.”


“We are monitoring the impact of geopolitical uncertainty on consumer confidence and

supply chains.”


Incoming Group CEO and Managing Director Brent Scrimshaw said:


“I am excited to step into the KMD Brands Group CEO role and look forward to my transition

with Michael over the next two weeks. I was pleased to announce earlier this week the

appointment of Ashley Reade as the new CEO of Rip Curl and additionally, have also

commenced a worldwide search for a Melbourne-based Group Chief Financial Officer. Ben

Washington will continue in his current role as Interim Group CFO until a permanent

appointment is made.”


“We continue to focus on delivering positive sales growth, improving profitability, maximising

cash flows, and reducing inventory.”


“We believe that with our portfolio of iconic global outdoor brands and leadership in

sustainability, we remain a unique investment proposition and well-placed for the future.”

Tropical Cyclone Alfred has impacted Queensland and Northern New South Wales stores for both brands, with approximately

100 lost trading days. Rip Curl store locations have been most materially impacted.

DIRECTORS’ REPORT

The Directors of KMD Brands Limited present the Interim Report for the Company and its controlled entities for the half year ended

31 January 2025.

Review of Operations

Group sales for the interim period of $470.9 million are 0.5% above last year. Direct-to-consumer sales trends continue to improve

for all three brands. This was underpinned by improved Black Friday and Christmas trade, and all brands achieving double digit

online growth. The wholesale market is taking longer to recover. Wholesale accounts remain cautious on pre-season commitments

in a challenging market. Forward orders and in-season buying from key accounts support an improving wholesale trend leading into

2026.

Gross margin decreased -0.3% of sales below last year to 58.5%, remaining resilient despite increased promotional intensity for

Kathmandu and clearance of inventory for Oboz.

All brands continue to actively manage operating expenses while facing global cost pressure. Kathmandu has invested an additional

$3 million YTD to refresh brand advertising, increase product newness and innovation, and improve the customer experience.

At 31 January 2025 the Group had a net debt position of $76.2 million, with funding headroom of approximately $215 million.

Net working capital was $33.6 million lower than 31 January 2024, with a significant reduction in inventory. Inventory positions

continue to moderate back towards historical levels, with further moderation expected through the second half of FY25 and into

FY26.

No interim dividend has been declared.

A further review of the operations of the Group is set out in the accompanying media release of 26 March 2025.

Seasonality

Due to the seasonal nature of the Group’s activities, the activities in the second half of the year historically provide a larger portion of

the sales and net profit for the full year.

1 GENERAL INFORMATION

KMD Brands Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (together the Group) is a designer, marketer, retailer and wholesaler

of apparel, footwear and equipment for surfing and the outdoors. It operates in New Zealand, Australia, North America, Europe,

South East Asia, Japan and Brazil.

The Company is a limited liability company incorporated and domiciled in New Zealand. KMD Brands Limited is a company

registered under the Companies Act 1993 and is an FMC reporting entity under Part 7 of the Financial Markets Conduct Act

2013. The address of its registered office is 223 Tuam Street, Central Christchurch, Christchurch.

These consolidated interim financial statements have been approved for issue by the Board of Directors on 26 March 2025,

and have been reviewed, not audited.


2 BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

These general-purpose financial statements for the six months ended 31 January 2024 have been prepared in accordance with

NZ IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting. In complying with NZ IAS 34, these consolidated interim financial statements also

comply with IAS 34.

These consolidated interim financial statements do not include all the notes of the type normally included in an annual financial

report. Accordingly, this report should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of KMD Brands Limited for

the year ended 31 July 2024 which have been prepared in accordance with the New Zealand equivalents to International

Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

The Group is designated as a profit-oriented entity for financial reporting purposes.

The consolidated interim financial statements are presented in New Zealand dollars, which is the Group’s presentation

currency.

3 ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared using the same accounting policies and methods of

computation as those used in the audited financial statements of KMD Brands Limited for the year ended 31 July 2024.

Use of non-GAAP disclosures

At times non-GAAP disclosures have been used in the consolidated financial statements. These disclosures have been

included as they are key measurement criteria on which the Group and operating segments are reviewed by the Group Chief

Executive Officer, Group Executive Management team and the Board of Directors. The following non-GAAP measures are

relevant to the understanding of the Group's financial performance:

• Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) represents earnings before income taxes

excluding interest income, interest expense, depreciation, and amortisation, as reported in the financial statements.

• Earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) represents EBITDA less depreciation and amortisation.

• Net debt represents cash and cash equivalents less interest-bearing liabilities. Net debt does not include lease

liabilities.

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

comparable to similar financial information presented by other entities. The non-GAAP information within the consolidated

financial statements is subject to review procedures.

New standards first applied in the period

There are no new standards first applied in the period.

Standards, interpretations, and amendments to published standards that are not yet effective

NZ IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements is applicable to the Group from 1 August 2027. NZ IFRS 18

will supersede NZ IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements and is intended to improve comparability and transparency in the

presentation of financial statements. The Group’s assessment of the impact remains ongoing.

There are no other standards or amendments published but not yet effective that are expected to have a significant impact on

the Group.

4 CLIMATE CHANGE RISK

The Group’s operations may be impacted by future climate change. These impacts may be physical (e.g. severe or unusual

weather patterns and events) or transitional (e.g. changes to government regulations or customer and supplier needs and

demands).

The Group regularly assesses its operating environment to monitor its exposure to risk, including climate related risk. Specific

consideration has been given in these financial statements to the impact of future climate change on the useful lives of the

Group’s property, plant, and equipment, the inclusion of expected renewals in the lease term for right-of-use assets and

sustainability linked loans. The identified climate-related risks and opportunities including both physical and transitional impacts

have been considered as part of the above accounting judgements and estimates.

In November 2024 the Group published its first Climate-Related Disclosure (CRD) prepared in accordance with the Aotearoa

New Zealand Climate Standards (NZ CS). The CRD covers the 12 month period ended 31 July 2024 and should be read in

conjunction with the Group’s FY24 Annual Integrated Report.

10 INTANGIBLE ASSETS


Carrying value of intangible assets


The Group market capitalisation is below the carrying value of net assets and the Group has made a net loss after income tax

of $20,704,000 for the period. Historically the second half of the financial year is more profitable and generates more cash flow

and therefore we do not consider the short term results an indicator of impairment. In addition, our internal valuation models

continue to provide sufficient headroom at both Group and Brand cash generating unit levels. No impairment exists as at 31

January 2025.

Group Facility Agreement

The Group has a multi-option syndicated facility, which consists of an A$240 million multi-currency revolving facility and a

NZ$54 million multi-currency revolving facility. Both facilities are sustainability linked with targets such as reducing greenhouse

gas emissions, continued B Corp certification, and improving transparency within the Group supply chain, including the

wellbeing and labour conditions of workers, and environmental metrics. All facilities are repayable in full on 12 November 2026.

Interest is payable based on the BKBM rate (NZD borrowings), the BBSY rate (AUD borrowings), SOFR rate (US borrowings)

or the applicable short-term rate for interest periods less than 30 days, plus a margin of between 1.00% - 1.075%. The debt is

secured by the assets of the guaranteeing group in accordance with the Security Trust Deed dated 25 October 2019 as

amended 12 May 2023. The guaranteeing group comprises entities operating in New Zealand, Australia, North America and

the United Kingdom. The carrying value of the assets held by the guaranteeing group are $1,384,948,000 (2024:

$1,416,837,000).


KMD BRANDS LIMITED - INTERIM REPORT 2025


13


The covenants entered into by the Group require specified calculations of Group earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and

amortisation (EBITDA) plus lease rental costs to exceed total fixed charges (net interest expense and lease rental costs) at the

end of each half during the financial year. Similarly, EBITDA must be no less than a specified proportion of total net debt at the

end of each six-month interim period. The calculations of these covenants are specified in the bank facility agreement of 25

October 2019 as amended and restated on 12 May 2023. The Group obtained a reduction of the fixed cover and leverage

covenants for the January 2025 measurement point. The Group has complied with its revised banking covenants at all

measurement points during the period.

The current interest rate, prior to hedging, on the term loans range between 5.50% - 5.51% (2024: 5.40% - 5.41%).


13 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS


(a) Financial risk factors


The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks, market risk (including currency risk and interest rate risk), credit

risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and

seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of the Group. The Group uses derivative financial

instruments such as foreign exchange contracts and interest rate swaps to manage certain risk exposures. Derivatives are

exclusively used for economic hedging purposes, i.e. not as trading or other speculative instruments, however not all derivative

financial instruments qualify for hedge accounting.

Risk management is carried out based on policies approved by the Board of Directors. The Group treasury policy provides

written principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk.

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group manages this

risk by actively managing working capital and ensuring flexibility in funding arrangements. Refer to note 12 for details of the

funding arrangements in place as at 31 January 2025.

The consolidated interim financial statements do not include all financial risk management information and disclosures required

in the annual financial statements; they should be read in conjunction with the Group’s annual financial statements as at 31

July 2024. There have been no changes in the risk management department or in any risk.


(b) Fair value estimation


The only financial instruments held by the Group that are measured at fair value are over-the-counter derivatives. These

derivatives have all been determined to be within level 2 (for the purposes of NZ IFRS 13) of the fair value hierarchy as all

significant inputs required to ascertain the fair value of these derivatives are observable.

There were no changes in valuation techniques during the period.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values for each class of financial instrument.

Trade debtors, trade creditors and bank balances

The carrying value of these items is equivalent to their fair value.

Term liabilities

The fair value of the Group's term liabilities is approximately carrying value.

Foreign exchange contracts and interest rate swaps

The forward foreign exchange contracts have been fair valued using forward exchange rates that are quoted in an active

market. Interest rate swaps are fair valued using forward interest rates extracted from observable yield curves. The effects of

discounting are insignificant for these derivatives.

Guarantees and overdraft facilities

The fair value of these instruments is estimated on the basis that management do not expect settlement at face value to arise.

The carrying value and fair value of these instruments is approximately nil. All guarantees are repayable on demand.

Independent Auditor’s Review

Report


To the shareholders of KMD Brands Limited (Group)

Report on the interim consolidated financial statements

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our

attention that causes us to believe that the interim

consolidated financial statements on pages 3 to 14 do

not:

‒ present fairly, in all material respects, the

Group’s financial position as at 31 January

2025 and its financial performance and cash

flows for the 6 month period then ended and

comply with New Zealand Equivalent to

International Accounting Standard 34 Interim

Financial Reporting (NZ IAS 34) issued by

the New Zealand Accounting Standards

Board.


We have completed a review of the accompanying

interim consolidated financial statements which

comprise:

‒ the interim consolidated balance sheet as at

31 January 2025;

‒ the interim consolidated statements of

comprehensive income, changes in equity

and cash flows for the 6 month period then

ended; and

‒ notes, including material accounting policy

information.

Basis for conclusion

We conducted our review of the financial statements in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) Review of

Financial Statements Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity (NZ SRE 2410 (Revised)). Our

responsibilities are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Review of the interim consolidated

financial statements section of our report.

We are independent of KMD Brands Limited in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements in New Zealand

relating to the audit of the annual financial statements and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in

accordance with these ethical requirements.

Our firm has provided other services to the Group in relation to tax compliance services. 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.

Use of this Independent Auditor’s Review Report
This report is made solely to the shareholders. Our review 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 Review Report and for

no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other

than the shareholders for our review work, this report, or any of the conclusions we have formed.

Responsibilities of directors for the interim consolidated financial

statements

The directors on behalf of the Group are responsible for:

‒ the preparation and fair presentation of the interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with

NZ IAS 34; and

‒ implementing necessary internal control to enable the preparation of interim consolidated financial

statements that is fairly presented and free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor's responsibilities for the review of the interim consolidated

financial statements

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the interim consolidated financial statements based on our review.

NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) requires us to conclude whether anything has come to our attention that causes us to

believe that the interim consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, are not prepared, in all material

respects, in accordance with NZ IAS 34.

A review of the interim consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) is

a limited assurance engagement. The auditor performs procedures, consisting of making enquiries, primarily of

persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures.

The procedures performed in a review are substantially less than those performed in an audit conducted in

accordance with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand) and consequently does not enable us to obtain

assurance that we might identify in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion on the financial

statements.

The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor’s review report is Peter Taylor.

SALES IMPACTED BY WHOLESALE CUSTOMER CAUTION

•Total sales +0.1% YOY in 1H FY25, improving from -6.7% during Q1 to +6.5%

during Q2.

•Difficult trading in the broader surf industry is reflected in this result, and has led

to significant changes to the competitive landscape in North America. Key

competitor store closures may cause short-term headwinds as inventory is

divested.

•Direct-to-consumer sales (incl. online) +4.1%, reflecting strong sales growth

over the key Australasian summer and Christmas trading period. Also, stronger

results in Europe and South America, supported by store openings.

•Online sales +13.9% to $21.1m, comprising 11.5% of DTC sales.

•Wholesale sales -7.9%, as wholesale accounts remain cautious on pre-season

commitments in a challenging market. Forward orders support an improving

wholesale trend through 2025.

GROSS MARGIN AND OPERATING EXPENSES WELL CONTROLLED

•Gross margin increased +0.2% of sales with channel and product mix offsetting

the impact of increased promotional intensity in a tough trading environment.

•Operating expenses tightly managed while facing global cost pressure.

New Rip Curl CEO Ashley Reade has been appointed, bringing two decades

of global strategic leadership in the sportwear industry.

•Forward orders and in-season buying from key accounts support an improving

GROSS MARGIN AND OPERATING EXPENSES

•Gross margin decreased -5.7% of sales as clearance of excess inventory has

contributed to lower gross margins YOY. Gross margin on core styles and new

launches remains in line with historical margins.

•Operating expenses tightly controlled YOY. Investment to be leveraged with

FOCUS AREAS AND OUTLOOK

Stabilise sales and return to growth

Grow gross margin

Continue to simplify our business

Ongoing working capital reduction and efficiency

Improve profitability and return to dividends

TRADING UPDATE

•DTC sales (including online) for the first 7 full weeks to 16 March 2025, a seasonally

non-significant trading period for both brands:

•Kathmandu +5.2% YOY

*1

. Gross margin is under pressure YOY due to increased

promotional intensity in a competitive trading environment.

•Rip Curl global DTC sales for owned stores and websites approximately +0.7%

YOY

*1

. Gross margin remains resilient YOY.

OUTLOOK

•Wholesale accounts remain cautious on pre-season commitments in a challenging

market. Forward orders and in-season buying from key accounts support an improving

wholesale trend through 2025.

•Short-term gross margin pressure for all brands in a highly competitive global market,

with a focus on growing gross margin in the medium-term as markets improve.

•Monitoring the impact of geopolitical uncertainty on consumer confidence and supply

chains. Global monetary policy settings have been easing but the return of consumer

confidence will take time.

•We continue to focus on delivering positive sales growth, improving profitability,

maximising cash flows, and reducing inventory.

•We believe with our portfolio of iconic global outdoor brands and leadership in

sustainability, we remain a unique investment proposition and well-placed for the future.
