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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

•Online sales +32.8% grew strongly over the Black Friday and Christmas

•Forward orders and in-season buying from key accounts support an improving
wholesale trend through 2025.
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.
