ANNUAL SHAREHOLDERS MEETING – CHAIR’S ADDRESS

27 June 2025



Introduction & Thanks

I want to begin by thanking everyone who plays a part in Oceania's success-our nearly 2,700 staff, our

business partners, and you, our shareholders.

Every day, our team provides personal, high-quality support and care to over 3,900 residents across

our care homes and retirement villages. Their hard work and dedication are the foundation of

everything we do.

We also thank you, our investors, for supporting Oceania as we grow and improve for the long term.

Portfolio and Transformation

Since our share market listing in 2017, Oceania's total assets have more than tripled – growing by over

200% to nearly $3 billion.

We’ve made big changes to modernise our portfolio. Today, 88% of sites have been newly developed

or acquired. This means our Villages and Care Centres are newer, higher quality and better suited to

what residents want now and into the future.

We’re working toward a more balanced mix of Care and Independent Living with half of Care under

Occupation Right Agreements.

As a part of this transformation, we’ve exited or sold 18 sites since listing that no longer fit our long-

term strategy.

All of this reflects a clear and deliberate shift – from a legacy model to one focused on better living

environments, and a sustainable and stronger business.

Dividend & Capital Management

As you know, we didn't pay an interim dividend earlier this year, and the Board has also decided not to

pay a final dividend for FY25.

However, this doesn't mean we're moving away from rewarding shareholders. Instead, we've updated

our Dividend Policy to better reflect how and when we generate cash. The new policy gives us more

flexibility to manage our capital wisely, support future growth, and still return value to shareholders

when it makes sense to do so. We believe paying dividends is a good capital management discipline.

Our new dividend policy will be to pay out between 40% and 60% of its Free Cash Flow from

Operations (excluding development cash flows). The Board may consider a dividend above or below

this policy range, subject to Oceania’s cash flow requirements and investment opportunities.

Page 2 of 3
Oceania Healthcare

Free Cash Flow from Operations is calculated as cash flows from ongoing operations including realised

Deferred Management Fees and Capital gains from resale of ORA contracts, less maintenance capital

expenditure and finance costs on core debt (excluding development debt).

At the time of the Oceania half year result announcement, we’ll have more certainty on the operational

performance for the year and therefore be able to assess when dividend payments can resume.

We remain committed to careful financial management. As of 31 March 2025, we had $97 million in

unused debt capacity, and our gearing (a measure of financial leverage) has improved to 36.3%, down

from 38.3% last year. This progress comes from selling non-core assets, boosting sales, and making

our operations more efficient.

We also successfully refinanced our $500 million loan facility this year, keeping the same terms and

receiving strong support from new and existing lenders - a clear sign of confidence in our strategy and

financial health.

Managing Risk

The Board continues to pay close attention to managing risks in what is a constantly changing

environment.

Over the past year, we've made good progress in strengthening how we identify and manage risks-

especially in areas like clinical, health and safety, climate change, cybersecurity, regulation, and how

we fund and deliver Care.

This builds on the work we began last year, including the creation of a dedicated Board Risk

Committee, to ensure we are prepared for both new and ongoing challenges.

Sustainability and Climate Action

This year marked the second time we reported on our Climate-related risks and plans under New

Zealand's mandatory rules.

We made strong progress, including developing our first formal Climate Transition Plan. This outlines

how we'll address climate risks and opportunities over the short, medium, and long term.

We also continued making improvements in other sustainability areas like reducing emissions,

managing waste, and designing buildings that are more efficient and environmentally friendly.

Oceania was proud to be a finalist for the Sustainability Leadership award at the 2024 Deloitte Top 200

Awards - recognition of how sustainability is now a key part of our business.

Board Oversight and Engagement

Our Board has stayed closely involved with the business throughout the year. We regularly visit our

villages to speak with residents, frontline staff, and managers and as part of regular Health and Safety

and Clinical Leadership walks. These visits are critical as they help ensure that real-life experiences

shape the decisions we make at the highest level.

Looking Ahead

New Zealand's population is ageing fast. The number of people aged 75 and over is expected to

double by 2050 from just over 400,000 today to over 800,000. Current aged care capacity won't meet

that future demand.

Oceania is in a strong position to help meet this need.

Page 3 of 3
Oceania Healthcare

We are focused on completing our current strategy with care and discipline. At the same time, we're

beginning the next phase of our journey under CEO Suzanne Dvorak's leadership.

Suzanne and her team have developed a five-year plan that builds on our strengths and focuses on

what matters most - improving resident outcomes, developing our workforce, and operating sustainably

over the long term.

The Board fully supports this new strategy. We believe it gives Oceania a clear, differentiated and

confident path forward.

Now, I'd like to invite Suzanne to present her report.

ANNUAL SHAREHOLDERS MEETING - Chief Executive Officer’s Address

27 June 2025



Thank you, Liz, and good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen.

It’s a pleasure to speak to you today at my first Annual Shareholders Meeting as

Chief Executive Officer of Oceania Healthcare.

Since joining in July last year, I’ve visited many of our villages and met with our

residents, their families, and our team across the country. These conversations

have confirmed what makes Oceania special - the deep sense of care,

responsibility and pride our people bring to their work every day in how we look

after our residents and support each other.

We’ve worked hard to streamline operations, sharpen our focus and build on our

core strengths.

Lifting Performance in FY25

When I joined, we identified two key areas to accelerate performance: improving

sales and making our operations more efficient. These efforts have made our

business more resilient and better positioned for the future.

This year, we’ve seen solid results:

• New sales volumes were up by over 17%; and

• Resales were up by 5%

• In the second half, new sales rose by 7% compared to the first half.

We achieved this through stronger leadership in sales, improved pricing and

targeted marketing.

Several villages stood out:

• The Helier in Auckland lifted occupancy from 14% at the start of the year to

41% by late May.

• Bellevue in Christchurch sold out its apartments in just two years.

Oceania Healthcare
Page | 2

• Redwood Care Suite Centre in Blenheim opened in May 2024 and reached

62% occupancy by 31 March. Sales of Care Suites under an ORA were

25% ahead of expectations.

These results show we’re making real progress in aligning sales with our

development pipeline.

We also made headway in managing our capital. Even though we added $120

million of stock from new development, we achieved $131 million in sales, which

helped us bring our stock level down from $353 million to $342 million.

In parallel, we refinanced our banking facilities, extended debt maturities,

maintaining covenants, and securing competitive pricing with the support of

existing and new lenders.

Importantly, we’ve continued to be transparent and consistent in how we report.

• Our accounting policies and disclosures were signed off by Ernst and

Young;

• We carry out independent property valuations every six months;

• Our 30% Deferred Management Fee has not changed; and

• Weekly fee increases now align with New Zealand superannuation.

Optimising the Operating Model

We’re building a leaner and more agile business.

• A cost out programme has already saved $5 million

• A broader optimisation programme is targeting $10 to $15 million of

savings

• We’ve already identified another $5 million of savings to be realised -

starting in the second half of FY26.

Most importantly, these changes do not impact our resident experience, nor our

growth potential. They reflect a smarter way of operating – one that is focused,

consistent and set up for the future.

Portfolio Transformation

We continue to improve and modernise the quality of our portfolio.

Key milestones in FY25 include:

• 68 apartments completed at Awatere Village

• 50 apartments completed at Waterford Village

• We opened a 106 suite Care Building at Elmwood Village; and

Oceania Healthcare
Page | 3

• We opened 40 new dementia suites at Meadowbank Village.

We are also preparing for future growth:

• At Franklin, 31 villas and a community centre are on track for delivery in

FY26;

• We bought land in Hastings, adjacent to our Gracelands site, for future

development;

• The outdated buildings at Lady Allum were demolished to make way for a

central precinct; and

• Six older sites were sold, helping to reduce debt and lifting the overall

quality of our portfolio.

Leading in Care

Care is our core – it sits at the heart of who we are. We’ve elevated clinical

leadership to the executive level, and have launched our Fundamentals of Care

framework this year. This framework is about lifting clinical practice and

delivering excellence in resident outcomes.

With demand for high-quality care expected to grow significantly, our

development strategy includes a substantial pipeline of premium care suites to

meet this growing demand.

As the sector undergoes a review of the Retirement Villages Act, we are actively

contributing and advocating for reforms that support transparency, wellbeing, and

sustainability.

Strengthening Leadership and Culture

We have simplified our structure, invested in leadership, and introduced

technology-based platforms like SafetyHub — a user-friendly mobile tool to

improve our Health and Safety system. These platforms provide better visibility

and consistency in workforce planning and safety practices.

While there is still work to do, we’re building a high performing and connected

workforce. We are supported by an experienced Chair and Board with six

independent directors, who bring a deep knowledge of aged care which is a real

strength for Oceania.

Together, we’ve sharpened our focus on disciplined execution, excellence in

care, and long term sustainability.

Our Refreshed Purpose and Pillars

Today, I’m pleased to introduce Oceania’s refreshed purpose and strategic

pillars. These have been shaped through deep engagement with the Board and

Oceania Healthcare
Page | 4

executive team, and informed by independent research with our people, our

residents and their families.

Our new purpose is “Supporting and empowering people to live well as they

age”.

This is backed by four pillars:

• Connected Care

• Inspired Living

• Empowered People, and

• Purposeful Impact.

Each pillar will be supported by strategic priorities that will guide our work over

the next five years.

In Connected Care, we will focus on improving continuity and satisfaction across

the care and ageing journey, strengthening digital engagement, and expanding

models that support ageing in place.

For Inspired Living, we are focused on wellbeing, lifestyle and connection –

creating services and environments that foster dignity and independence and

optimising our sales strategies.

Under Empowered People, our priorities are to enhance leadership, support

professional development and foster a strong, positive employee experience.

And under Purposeful Impact, we will drive sustainable growth and innovation –

whilst embedding social and environmental value into how we plan, invest, and

measure success.

These pillars will help to guide our investment decisions and impact - for

residents, their families, our team, and shareholders alike.

Climate and Sustainability

On 5 June, we released our Climate Transition Plan outlining how we are:

• Adapting our villages and buildings

• Lowering emissions, and

• Supporting our people

as we prepare for a climate-resilient future.

Closing

And in closing, I want to sincerely thank the executive team for their efforts over

this past year. Their work has strengthened and simplified the business and

created a strong platform for the future.

I’d also like to thank our Chair, Liz Coutts, and the Board for their leadership and

support.

There is still more to do, but I’m excited about what comes next, and am

confident that Oceania is on the right path. We are well positioned for the next

chapter, and I look forward to working with you all – residents, families,

employees and shareholders – as we continue to grow stronger, together.

Thank you.

Dividend policy and capital management framework

OCA’s dividend policy is to pay out between 40% and 60% of its Free Cash Flow from

Operations (excluding development cash flows)

The Board may consider a dividend above or below this policy range, subject to the

Company's cash flow requirements and investment opportunities

Free Cash Flow from Operations is calculated as cash flows from ongoing operations

including realised Deferred Management Fees and Capital Gains from resale of ORA

contracts, less maintenance capital expenditure and finance costs on core debt (excluding

development debt)

The directors have resolved not to pay a final dividend for FY25 and have reviewed Oceania’s Dividend Policy to ensure it better reflects the timing

of operational cashflows.

10
Risk, sustainability and climate

A dedicated Board Risk Committee was

established to strengthen oversight and

ensure preparedness for emerging and

ongoing challenges.

Oceania’s first formal Climate Transition

Plan was developed to address climate risks

and opportunities across the short, medium,

and long term.

Finalist for the Sustainability Leadership

Award at the 2024 Deloitte Top 200 Awards

recognising that sustainability is now

embedded in our business strategy.

The Board continues to closely monitor and manage risks in an

increasingly complex and dynamic environment.

11
Looking ahead

New Zealand’s population is ageing rapidly

with the number of people aged over 75

expected to double by 2050

The current supply of aged care residential

care is not sufficient to meet this projected

demand

Oceania is well positioned to respond to this

challenge

Five year strategic plan has been developed

building on existing strengths and reflecting a

sharper focus on execution, resident outcomes,

workforce capability, and long term sustainability

2025 and beyond.
