HALLENSTEIN GLASSON HOLDINGS LIMITED | INTERIM REPORT 2025
The Company advises that
unaudited total Group sales for
the six months to 1 February
2025 were $240.0 million,
compared to $223.0 million in
the prior corresponding period.
GLASSONS
Sales in Australia were $123.9 million for the
six-month period, were up +15.8% against
the prior corresponding period inclusive
of sales from new and refurbished stores.
The Australian business continued to
experience growth throughout the half.
Net profit after tax was $11.8 million, an
increase of +9.0% on the prior year
($10.9 million).
During the period the Werribee store in
Victoria was relocated and expanded, the
season also benefited from the Rundle
Mall store in Adelaide which opened in the
prior winter season as well as several other
stores that were refurbished in the second
half of the prior year. Post reporting period,
an outlet store in Harbour Town Adelaide
opened in March, with a further store
opening imminently in the Sunshine
Coast, Queensland.
Sales in New Zealand were $57.3 million,
which were up +0.2% against the same
period last year, reflective of a tougher
trading environment compared to Australia,
though a pleasing result when compared
to the overall retail environment within
New Zealand. Net profit after tax was
$6.7 million, an increase of +18.0% on the
prior corresponding period ($5.7 million).
During the season the Lynn Mall and Shirley
stores were refurbished to ensure the
look of the stores represented the brand
through consistency with the rest of the
store network. A new store was opened
at the Manawa Bay Outlet Centre near
Auckland Airport in September. The Timaru
store was closed at the end of August
2024. Post reporting period, the Queen
Street store has been refurbished and has
reopened in late March.
Glassons continues to strengthen as a
leading women’s fashion brand in both
Australia and New Zealand, delivering
strong growth in a challenging retail
environment.
HALLENSTEIN
Sales were $58.8 million for the six-month
period (including Australia), with sales flat
against the same period last year +0.1%,
however at a reduced gross margin at
56.2%. Margin was impacted by the difficult
trading environment in New Zealand. Net
profit after tax was $2.5 million, a decrease
of -43.6% on the prior corresponding
period ($4.5 million).
During the season, our new store concept
design was rolled out in the Silverdale
store in Auckland in November, and a
new store was also opened in Manawa Bay
Outlet Centre in September. Our Queen
Street store has also moved to an improved
location. We continue to look for further
opportunities in Queensland to capitalise
on the strong growth the brand has
experienced recently in the market.
E-COMMERCE
Digital sales have increased to 17.7% of
total Group sales for the six-month period,
up from 17.3% in the same period last year.
Growth has returned to our digital channels
following a normalisation of post-pandemic
trade. Customers have continued to enjoy
the physical in-store experience with many
of our customers shopping both in-store
and online concurrently, demanding a
true omnichannel experience. There is a
continued focus on digital marketing across
the Group to drive engagement across all
channels and ensure that customers enjoy
a similar experience whether shopping in
store or online. The Glassons App continues
to be very successful, while significant
work has been undertaken on both the
Hallensteins and Glassons web shops to
improve customer experience and increase
conversion.
DIVIDEND
The Directors have declared an interim
dividend of 24.5 cents per share (partially
imputed at 40.5%) (last year 24 cents per
share partially imputed at 45%) to be paid
on 17 April 2025. The dividend payment can
be maintained due to the strong balance
sheet and operating cash generation.
FUTURE OUTLOOK
Group sales for the first seven weeks are
+5.4% ahead of the same period last year,
however margin remains under pressure.
The retail environment has remained
subdued in the New Zealand market,
although we remain well placed as
this recovers.
We are conscious of the significant
challenges that are expected to continue
for the remainder of the financial year given
the uncertainty in the current economic
environment in New Zealand, Australia and
globally. Alongside the new stores opened
in the first half, the Group has additional
refurbishment and new store opportunities
to support growth in the second half of the
2025 financial year. We continue to look for
margin, operational and cost efficiencies,
while remaining flexible with our product
offerings to ensure we are well positioned
for changes in the market.
CHRIS KINRAID
Group unaudited net profit after tax (NPAT)
was $21.2 million, an increase of 0.3% over
the corresponding period last year ($21.1
million). The result is in line with the guidance
announced to the NZX on 28 February 2025.
Gross margin on sales was 58.5% compared
with 58.9% in the prior corresponding
period. The reduction in the margin was
due to the challenging New Zealand retail
environment over the peak trade period.
The strengthening USD continued to
impact on our inventory purchasing costs.
During the six months to 1 February
2025 there was a continued focus
on operating cost efficiency across
the Group given the difficult trading
environment. This was balanced with
continued investment in our operational
capabilities to support the growth of
our Australian brands, which continue
to deliver strong performance. Inventory
levels were tightly controlled and ended
the period lower than the prior year end.
The balance sheet remains in a strong
position with improved working capital
compared to the prior corresponding period
and significant cash reserves of $49.9 million.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 1 FEBRUARY 2025 (UNAUDITED)
1 BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
This section presents a summary of information considered relevant and material to assist the reader in
understanding the foundations on which the financial statements as a whole have been compiled.
1.1 GENERAL INFORMATION
REPORTING ENTITY
Hallenstein Glasson Holdings Limited (“Company” or “Parent”) together with its subsidiaries (the “Group”)
is a retailer of men’s and women’s clothing in New Zealand and Australia.
The Company is a limited liability company incorporated and domiciled in New Zealand. The address of its
registered office is Level 3, 235-237 Broadway, Newmarket, Auckland.
STATUTORY BASE
Hallenstein Glasson Holdings 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 Company is also listed on the
New Zealand Stock Exchange (NZX). The financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance
with the requirements of Part 7 of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013 and the NZX Main Board Listing Rules.
The financial statements were approved for issue by the Board of Directors on 28 March 2025.
1.2 GENERAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE
These interim financial statements for the half year ended 1 February 2025 have been prepared in accordance
with Generally Accepted Accounting Practice in New Zealand (NZ GAAP), NZ IAS 34 and IAS 34 Interim Financial
Reporting and should be read in conjunction with the 2024 Annual Report.
BASIS OF PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accounting policies used in the preparation of these financial statements are consistent with those used in
the previously published interim financial statements to 1 February 2024, and the audited financial statements to
1 August 2024, unless stated otherwise.
Certain comparative balances have been restated for consistency with the treatment in the 1 August 2024
consolidated financial statements.
The financial statements for the six months ended 1 February 2025 and 1 February 2024 are unaudited.
The comparative information for the year ended 1 August 2024 is audited.
The reporting currency used in the preparation of these financial statements is New Zealand dollars, rounded
where necessary to the nearest thousand dollars.
ENTITIES REPORTING
The financial statements are the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Group comprising Hallenstein Glasson
Holdings Limited and subsidiaries, together they are referred to in these financial statements as the “Group”.
The parent and its subsidiaries are designated as for-profit entities for financial reporting purposes.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION
Effective from 2 August 2024, Glassons Australia and Hallensteins Australia, previously registered as branches
in Australia, have become Australian companies registered with ASIC in accordance with Part 5B.1 of the
Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (Australia). The effect of this gave rise to two operating subsidiaries in Australia.
As a part of the domiciliation of these companies, the functional currency of the Australian branches/subsidiaries
has been reassessed. Over time there has been a gradual change in operations in Australia which has culminated
in converting the branches to subsidiaries as noted above. Management has further determined that a change in
functional currency from NZD to AUD upon the restructuring of the Australian branches on the 2 August 2024
is appropriate.
10
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 1 FEBRUARY 2025 (UNAUDITED)
The results and financial position of all the Group entities that have a functional currency different from the
presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
— Assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that
balance sheet;
— Income and expenses for each statement of comprehensive income are translated at average exchange rates;
and
— All resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income.
On consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation of the net investment in foreign operations, and
other currency instruments designated as hedges of such investments, are taken to other comprehensive income.
REVISED COMPARATIVE BALANCE
The Group revised its estimates of prior period breakage for unredeemed gift cards, leading to changes in the 2023
consolidated financial statement of position, consolidated statement of changes in equity, and respective notes to
the consolidated financial statements. As a result, other payables decreased by $0.5M, deferred tax reduced by
$0.1M and 2023 opening retained earnings increased by $0.4M. The Group considered this revision as immaterial to
the consolidated financial statements as a whole.
