Third quarter trading update

15 January 2026

Ryman Healthcare reports 375 sales of retirement living occupation right agreements (ORAs) for the

quarter ending 31 December 2025 (Q3 FY26), including 101 new sales and 274 resales.


Total sales were broadly flat on Q2 with a shift in mix across product types. As expected, new sales

of independent living units eased following the opening of Nellie Melba Stage 4 in the prior quarter,

while new sales of serviced apartments were strong across New Zealand and Australia. Resales

were steady overall reflecting regional mix, with relocations from Margaret Stoddart and

Woodcote to other Christchurch villages contributing.


Occupancy continued to grow in Ryman’s recently opened aged care centres and remained

strong in mature care centres

at 96.0% in Q3, up from 95.8% in Q2.


CEO Naomi James said, “We maintained sales momentum through to the holiday break, amid

mixed housing market conditions and heightened competition continuing in some regions. We also

continue to see growing demand for our high-quality care offering. While sales volumes are still

rebuilding, we’re encouraged by clear progress in key metrics like contract conversion and

cancellation rates – proof that our sales strategies are working, and lead quality is improving.

Looking ahead, we expect continued market variability, but our focus remains firmly on driving

sales effectiveness and controlling the factors within our reach.”


FY26 ORA sales guidance remains unchanged at 1,300 – 1,400. Guidance excludes resident

relocations from Margaret Stoddart and Woodcote following the closure of care centres at these

villages ( expected to be less than 40), which are included in reported sales volumes.

Mature aged care centres exclude six developing care centres which have not yet reached 90% occupancy, Woodcote

and Margaret Stoddard care centres (both closed in Q3 FY26) and Edmund Hillary (care capacity reopened in H1 FY26

following completion of relevelling works).

Notes: Includes ORA sales on retirement village units only and excluded ORAs and RADs on aged care accommodation.

Sales are recognised when a resident takes occupation of a retirement village unit, which typically aligns with settlement.

FY26 sales include ORAs from residents who have elected to relocate to other Ryman villages from Margaret Stoddart and

Woodcote following the closure of care centres at these villages (Q2: 5 sales, Q3: 32 sales).
