Financial result for the twelve months ended 31 March 2025 (Unaudited)


Commentary


Mainfreight is pleased to confirm our full-year financial result to 31 March 2025. This

result is in line with our expectations and as signalled during our market update issued

on 2 May 2025.


Result Summary

Revenue $5.24 billion Up 11%

Profit Before Tax $383.6 million Down 3%

Net Profit $274.3 million Up 31%


• Adjusted for foreign exchange impact, Group Revenue is up 9% and Profit Before

Tax is down 4%.

• Operating cashflows improved from $505 million to $584 million.

• A final dividend of 87.0 cents per share has been authorised by the Board of

Directors, payable on 18 July 2025.

• Net profit in the prior year was impacted by a non-cash abnormal tax accounting

adjustment on buildings.


This is a satisfactory result, assisted by a pleasing performance from our Australian

operations, which has become our largest revenue and profit contributor.


Sales revenue increases were achieved in all five regions and across our three divisions:

Transport, Warehousing and Air & Ocean. Asia, the Americas and New Zealand saw

profits decline.


- 2 -


Freight Volume Analysis – FY25 v FY24

Total Air freight kilos up 8%

Total Sea freight TEUS up 6%

Total domestic Transport tonnes up 3%

Total Warehouse orders picked up 2%


Whilst freight activity has increased across all sectors of the business, margin

performance was poorer than expected, impacted by an intensely competitive

environment and significantly higher property overheads as we migrate to new facilities.


There has been a variety of supply chain responses from our customers as tariff

negotiations triggered by the United States administration continue. Many are taking a

“wait and see” approach, while others begin to adjust their manufacturing hubs and

explore different trade lanes. Ongoing uncertainty is likely to result in fluctuating freight

volumes, and inconsistent trade lane pricing in the immediate future.


Mainfreight is well positioned to assist our customers as they manage through the

disruption.


Group Operating Cash Flows


Operating cash flows were $584 million, up from $505 million in the prior year, reflecting

improved cash collection and working capital movements.


Current debt facilities total $504 million, of which $125 million was drawn. Net funds at

31 March 2025 was $14.4 million compared to $22 million last year. Gearing ratios

remain satisfactory.


Net capital expenditure in FY25 totalled $234.5 million, with expenditure on property

accounting for $111.2 million; warehousing racking and fit out costs of $75 million; and

plant, equipment and software of $48 million.


- 3 -

We will continue to invest in our network and the infrastructure associated with it.

However, the likelihood of slower economic growth, coupled with the considerable

investments made in the past year, particularly in New Zealand, will result in a more

cautionary approach to property development and capital expenditure.


Total planned capital expenditure through to the end of 2027 will be NZ$450 million, of

which NZ$330 million relates to property, racking and fit out. This will be allocated across

our regions as:

New Zealand NZ$ 73.4 million

Australia AU$141.3 million

Americas US$ 28.8 million

Europe EU$ 25.6 million

Asia US$ 1 million


Our branch network has remained steady with 337 branches across 27 countries.

Network expansion is expected to continue as freight growth, profitability and customer

expectations allow.


Dividend


The Directors have approved a final dividend of 87.0 cents per share fully imputed at the

28% company tax rate. With the record date on 11 July 2025, payment will be made on

18 July 2025. This brings the full year dividend to 172.0 cents per share, in line with the

prior year.


Discretionary Bonus


The payment of discretionary bonuses is based on satisfactory profit results, and remain

a key part of who we are – sharing profits with those who created them. Unfortunately,

this year’s performance will result in our people in New Zealand and the Americas regions

foregoing bonuses as a consequence of contributing less profit than the year prior. A

total of $30.5 million will be shared with team members in branches who have contributed

satisfactory profits in our Australia, Asia and Europe regions.


- 4 -


Divisional Performance (figures in local currencies)


New Zealand (NZ$)


Revenue NZ$1.16 billion Up 3.1%

Profit Before Tax NZ$134.5 million Down 9.5%


This is a disappointing result from our New Zealand business this year. Whilst we have

been able to continue to increase market share, increased property costs and lower

Transport and Air & Ocean margins saw profit decline.


An improved performance from our Warehousing business was pleasing. Additional

capacity has been added, and is yet to be fully utilised, providing capacity for future

expansion. The opening of our new hazardous goods facility in Auckland has occurred

post year end, and new warehousing capacity for Christchurch will become available by

mid 2026.


Transport margins were compromised due to additional road transport capacity for inter-

island freight movements being required to offset poor KiwiRail services. Less than

desired rail ferry capacity will continue to provide challenges for the next four years for

freight movements between the North and South Islands until new ferries are delivered.

Three new cross-dock facilities were delivered in Auckland, providing much improved

capacity. New transport facilities are currently under construction in Hastings and

Auckland, with expected completion in late 2025. Our Whanganui site will open in July.


The volumes and market share gains continue to improve in our Air & Ocean business,

however lower ocean freight rates and intense competition has seen margins reduce.


While second half improvements have assisted performance, we expect to see ongoing

challenging conditions in the New Zealand market for the short term.



- 5 -

Australia (AU$)


Revenue AU$1.51 billion Up 16.5%

Profit Before Tax AU$137.4 million Up 7.0%


This has been a record breaking result from our Australian region and it is now the largest

revenue and profit performer in the Group. Leading this growth is our Transport

business, where strong market share gains in the LTL sector have provided improved

utilisation and profit performance. New Transport facilities are currently under

construction in Brisbane and Townsville, with expected completion late 2026.


Warehousing profitability has improved as we increase utilisation and find efficiencies

across our new sites. The exit of three overflow warehouses by mid November 2025, will

generate further margin improvements.


Our Air & Ocean returns have been pleasing, aided by a number of large project

shipments. Satisfactory performances from our Sydney and perishable airfreight

operations have contributed to this result.


We expect the growth achieved in FY25 across all of our Australian divisions to continue.




The Americas (US$)


Revenue US$665.8 million Up 4.2%

Profit Before Tax US$15.2 million Down 30.0%


The Americas continues to be our worst performing region due to a poorer than expected

Transport result. There was a satisfying performance from our Air & Ocean division,

albeit with a less than satisfactory contribution from our wholesale sea freight division,

CaroTrans. Our Air & Ocean business has some exposure to the TransPacific trade lanes

which will result in fluctuating tonnage as US tariff negotiations continue.


- 6 -

Our Warehousing operations are fully utilised, other than our newly extended New

Jersey site. This facility has a significant focus on beverage storage, and this is expected

to see further growth in the year ahead. Interest in our Canadian operations is expanding

due to the impact of US tariffs, and we expect to increase our warehousing footprint in

Toronto.


The profit and revenue results for the Transport business were unsatisfactory as we

continue to work to develop our network and LTL distribution capability. New cross-docks

in Dallas and Chicago are now operational, and provide the opportunity for improved

efficiencies. Further cross-dock investments are on hold until profitability improves. Our

network capability now covers 79 branches across the Americas.


We expect to see ongoing profit improvements in our Air & Ocean and Warehousing

divisions in the short term, no matter the tariff effects. Our Transport business will take

time to meet expectations.



Asia (US$)


Revenue US$126.2 million Up 30.8%

Profit Before Tax US$9.8 million Down 29.4%


It was a disappointing result from our Asian businesses where, despite pleasing revenue

growth, our margins were impacted by falling sea freight rates. While we have some

ongoing exposure to the TransPacific trade lanes, we are focussing on developing

capability to and from Europe and Australasia. Our branch network across Southeast

Asia continues to find relevance and is likely to benefit further once tariff negotiations are

completed, and manufacturing diversification away from China stabilises. Our

experiment with establishing warehousing capability in the region has yet to reach

profitability and is under review.




- 7 -

Europe (Euro €)


Revenue €602.8 million Up 8.2%

Profit Before Tax €31.0 million Up 11.0%


There was a satisfactory performance from our European operations, driven by improving

Transport and Air & Ocean profitability.


Warehousing utilisation and profitability remain disappointing as customers re-adjust

their warehousing requirements. A new warehouse established in Utrecht, the

Netherlands, remains under-utilised as we await a number of new customers tender

outcomes. The establishment of two warehouses in the United Kingdom has been

successful and has provided a platform for the development of a United Kingdom

Transport division.


Our Air & Ocean capability and network continues to improve with satisfactory progress

being made in all European countries.


Transport performance continues to be satisfactory across the Netherlands and Belgium,

however improvement is required in our transport hubs in France, Romania and Poland.

We expect to establish Warehousing capabilities in these regions, as well as in Germany

to meet growing customer inquiry. As a consequence, growing a stronger European

centric business.


Outlook


We are reasonably satisfied with our year end result, particularly our ability to grow sales

revenues in what has been a difficult trading environment.


We continue to be positive with the opportunities available to us in every region we

operate in. We are continuing to invest to improve our facilities to accommodate future

growth as conditions dictate, and are comfortable with the network we have established

in our most difficult market, the Americas.


- 8 -


Current trade tariff negotiations initiated by the United States has generated supply chain

uncertainty for the immediate future. We expect a short term increase in freight volumes

from China to the USA during the tariff pause period, with the likelihood of increased

freight rates, however this may also result in capacity on container vessels becoming

limited and container equipment shortages.


It remains difficult to predict if international freight volumes will remain elevated post the

tariff negotiations. Irrespective, we expect our customers to accelerate plans for

diversification of their supply chains to reduce volatility. Our network across 27 countries

positions us well to take advantage of these shifts and assist our customers with their

changing freight requirements.


Our sales activity is strong as market share opportunities continue to become available

across all regions. It is our expectation that our developing network in Europe, the

Americas and Asia will add to the success we have already gained in Australia and

New Zealand.


Mainfreight will release its financial results for the first half of the 2026 financial year to

the market on 12 November 2025.

4Abnormal Items

Abnormal items are determined in accordance with the principles of consistency, relevance and clarity. Transactions considered for

classification as abnormal items include acquisition and disposal costs; impairment or reversal of impairment of assets; business

integration; and transactions or events outside of the Group’s ongoing operations that have a significant impact on reported after tax profit.

During the year the Group had no abnormal pre-tax expenses (2024 nil). The related after tax expense was nil (2024 $69,224,000).

Building Depreciation Taxation- - -

On 28 March 2024, the New Zealand Government enacted changes to the tax legislation to remove the ability to depreciate buildings with

a life over 50 years for tax deduction purposes. For the Group the application of this taxation change under NZIAS 12 Income Taxes creates

a tax carrying value of nil from 1 April 2024 onwards for these New Zealand buildings. This increases the deferred taxation liability by

$69,224,000 and creates a one-off non-cash accounting adjustment to the taxation expense for deferred tax on buildings for the year ended

31 March 2024 of $69,224,000. The application of NZIAS 12 which creates this large deferred taxation liability does not reflect taxation

payable if the assets were sold.

5Annual Report and Annual Meeting

The annual report is expected to be available on 30 June 2025.

The Annual Meeting is to be held at 4.00pm on Wednesday 30 July 2025; venue to be advised.

5Segmental Reporting

An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses whose

operating results are regularly reviewed by the entity’s chief operating decision maker and for which discrete financial information is available.

The Group operates in the domestic supply chain (i.e. moving and storing freight within countries) and air and ocean freight industries

(i.e. moving freight between countries).

New Zealand, Australia, The Americas, Asia and Europe are each reported to management as separate segments as the businesses there perform both

domestic and air and ocean services.

The segmental results from operations are disclosed below.

Geographical Segments
