DIRECTORS’ REVIEW
Financial performance
For the six-month period ended 30 June 2026, CDL Investments New Zealand Limited
(NZX: CDI) recorded an unaudited profit for the period of $3.39 million (2025: $3.57 million).
CDI reported profit before income tax of $4.71 million (2025: $5.05 million) and recorded
property sales, rental and other income for the period of $12.55 million (2025: $13.81
million). The Company’s net asset backing at cost was 110 cents per share (2025: 107 cents
per share).
The result reflects the challenging residential property market conditions signalled at the
Annual Shareholder Meeting in May 2026, when the Board noted that 2026 earnings were
expected to be considerably lower than 2025. With the first half result is tracking broadly in
line with that expectation.
While lower interest rates have provided some support, purchaser confidence remains
cautious. Cost-of-living pressures, employment uncertainty, interest rate volatility, elevated
building costs and broader economic and geopolitical conditions continue to influence
purchaser decisions and development costs.
Portfolio and development activity
During the first half of 2026, CDI continued to advance its active and future development
programme while maintaining disciplined capital allocation and careful management of
development expenditure. Management’s focus remained on securing the last remaining
sales at Prestons Park, Christchurch and sales at Iona, Havelock North, preserving cash
flow and progressing the development pipeline to support future product availability and
diversification.
Key development activity included infrastructure and civil works at the residential
development at Iona, Havelock North; earthworks at the light industrial development at
Wairakei Road, Christchurch; preparations to commence earthworks at the residential
development at Arataki Road, Havelock North; and preparation of the submission of the
substantive Fast-track application for the mixed residential, retail and light industrial
development at Ruakura, Hamilton. We were also pleased to receive fast-track referral
approval for the Middle Road residential development in Havelock North and have made
substantial progress on the preparation of the substantive fast-track application for the site.
Diversified portfolio and balance sheet strength
CDI’s diversified portfolio continues to support resilience through the property cycle. While
residential development remains the cornerstone of the business, the Company’s industrial
and retail assets continue to provide additional income and flexibility during periods of
subdued residential activity.
Outlook
The Board remains cautious but measured about the near-term outlook. Construction cost
pressures, interest rate volatility and the gradual pace of recovery mean the final outcome
for 2026 remains subject to market conditions over the balance of the year. CDI remains
focused on disciplined execution, adding value to its property portfolio and leveraging its
balance sheet prudently so that it is ready to capitalise on an upturn in the property market.
While conditions remain challenging, the Board remains confident in CDI’s long-term
fundamentals, experienced Board and management team, and development pipeline that
supports sustainable long-term value creation for shareholders.

CDI reports HY26 result in line with expectations
CDL Investments New Zealand Limited (NZX: CDI) today released its unaudited results for
the six months ended 30 June 2026 and reported profit for the period of $3.39 million
(2025: $3.57 million) and recorded property sales, rental and other income of $12.55 million
(2025: $13.81 million).
Board Chair Desleigh Jameson said the result was broadly in line with expectations and
reflected the challenging property market conditions.
“As indicated at our Annual Shareholders Meeting in May, CDI expected 2026 earnings to be
considerably lower than 2025, reflecting subdued residential market conditions stemming
from economic and geopolitical uncertainty,” Ms Jameson said. “The cautious optimism we
saw in the first few months of the year has been tempered by political and economic
uncertainty. While lower interest rates have provided some support, purchaser confidence
remains very cautious and any recovery in residential demand is expected to be gradual.”
Chief Executive Officer Jason Adams said CDI’s approach remained steady and disciplined,
with management focused on securing the last remaining sales at Prestons Park,
Christchurch and sales at Iona in Havelock North, while carefully managing development
expenditure and progressing planning and consenting work for a more diversified future
development pipeline.
During the period, CDI continued to advance its active and future development programme,
including the residential development at Iona, Havelock North; the light industrial
development at Wairakei Road, Christchurch; preparations to commence earthworks at the
Fast-track residential development at Arataki Road, Havelock North; and preparation for the
submission of the substantive Fast-track application for the mixed residential, retail and light
industrial development at Ruakura, Hamilton.
“The broader economic and geopolitical environment continues to influence confidence
across a range of sectors,” Ms Jameson said. “While the first half result is tracking broadly
as expected, interest rate volatility, construction cost pressures and the gradual pace of
recovery mean the final outcome for 2026 remains subject to market conditions over the
balance of the year. CDI enters the second half of the year with a clear focus on disciplined
execution, adding value to its property portfolio, and leveraging its balance sheet prudently
so it is positioned to capitalise on an upturn in the property market.”
