9 Months to 30 June 2026
• Revenue for the nine months rose 11.1% to $134 million from $120.6 million in the same period
last year and was led by growth in container services revenue
• The result from operating activities increased 16.6% to $59.3 million from $50.9 million as
higher revenue converted to strong earnings growth
• Underlying net profit after tax increased 27.8% to $29.6 million from $23.2 million
• Reported net profit after tax increased 3.7% to $29.7 million from $28.6 million. The prior year
period included the proceeds from the final settlement of Cyclone Gabrielle insurance claims
Strategic Projects
• Key strategic projects including our container terminal transformation, dredge vessel
construction and mooring technology projects, remain on-track to deliver improved capacity,
service capabilities and operating efficiencies from FY2027
Earnings guidance
• Napier Port expects an underlying result from operating activities for the full year to 30
September 2025 around the top end of the previously communicated range of between $70
million and $74 million, assuming a continuation of current operating conditions
Chief Executive Todd Dawson said: “Napier Port has continued to deliver strong financial performance
in the third quarter and across the nine-month period, following a consolidation of the increased trade
activity we saw developing during 2025. We have seen growth in both refrigerated and non-refrigerated
container cargo volumes – highlighted by apples, meat, fertiliser and paper products.

alternative non-NZ GAAP measures. For further information please refer to Note 10 of the 2026 Nine Month Consolidated
Financial Statements.

“During the year to date we have seen additional container shipping line calls at Napier Port
demonstrating the consistency and attractiveness of our diverse and resilient cargo base. Container
line schedules and services are continuously evolving across the New Zealand coastal network and we
are positively positioning our port for further growth through strategic investments in our operating
capacity, service capability and operating efficiency.
“These projects, including dredge vessel construction, new mooring technology, and our container
terminal transformation are progressing according to plan and are expected to be operational and fully
embedded during the next financial year.
“Partially offsetting increased container activity, we have seen a reduction in bulk log exports as ongoing
geopolitical challenges create higher costs for exporters. This has been partially mitigated by higher
volumes of bulk fertiliser imports and exports.”
FINANCIAL RESULTS
Container services
Container services revenue for the quarter increased 21.9% to $35.8 million from $29.4 million in the
same period last year. For the nine months, container services revenue increased 18.8% to $85.7
million from $72.2 million on higher container cargo volumes and higher revenue per TEU
2
.
Average revenue per TEU for the nine months increased 17.7% to $439 from $373 in the same period
last year. This improvement in yield was driven by container and cargo mix, tariff and levy increases,
and a higher Depot contribution.
Container volumes for the quarter decreased 2.5% to 79,000 TEU due to lower empty container
volumes, as a higher proportion of empty container repositioning activity took place in the first half of
the year. For the nine months, total container volumes increased 1% to 196,000 TEU from 194,000
TEU in the same period last year.
Container vessel calls have increased by 11.9% to 217 for the nine-month period as additional
container services have called at Napier Port.
Bulk cargo
Bulk cargo revenue for the quarter decreased 0.6% to $12.2 million from $12.3 million in the same
period last year, as bulk volumes decreased 4.6% to 0.74 million tonnes. For the nine months, bulk
cargo revenue increased by 3.8% to $39.2 million from $37.7 million, while volumes decreased 2.5%
to 2.43 million tonnes.
Log export volume for the quarter decreased by 5% to 0.64 million tonnes, and for the nine-month
period decreased by 5.2% to 1.92 million tonnes.
Average revenue per tonne for the nine months increased 6.4% to $16.14 from $15.16 in the same
period last year, driven by changes to cargo mix and vessels, together with tariff and levy increases.
Cruise services
The cruise season completed in April with 55 vessel calls and over 88,000 passengers visiting the
region, contributing $6.5 million to revenue. This compares to 78 vessel calls contributing $8.3 million
to revenue in the prior comparative period.
There are currently 50 cruise vessel bookings for the upcoming 2027 season.

Operating results
The result from operating activities for the third quarter increased 24.3% to $22 million from $17.7 million
in the prior year period, as the third quarter revenue increase of $6.5 million exceeded the increase in
operating expenses of $2.2 million.
The result from operating activities for the nine months increased 16.6% to $59.3 million from $50.9
million. Positive operating leverage was demonstrated with the increase in revenue of $13.3 million
compared to the increase in operating expenses of $4.9 million.
Driven by the higher operating result, underlying net profit after tax for the third quarter increased by
38.9% to $11.7 million from $8.4 million in the same period last year. For the nine months this increased
by 27.8% to $29.6 million from $23.2 million.
Reported net profit after tax for the third quarter increased 37.9% to $11.7 million from $8.5 million in
the same period last year, and for the nine months increased 3.7% to $29.7 million from $28.6 million
as the prior year period included income from the $7.5 million final settlement of Cyclone Gabrielle
insurance claims.
CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
Over the nine-month period, Napier Port has invested $44.2 million in capital assets, including dredge
vessel construction, container terminal transformation, mooring plant and equipment, mobile plant
replacement, major maintenance and site asset management works.
Napier Port is investing approximately $120 million
3
across the 2025 to 2027 financial years towards
asset replacement and capacity and growth projects. Of this sum, $70 million has been deployed as at
30 June 2026.
Underlying net cash flow from operating activities increased by $3.6m, or 8.1%, to $48.7 million from
$45.0 million in the same period last year. Reported operating cash flow decreased by $5.2m, or 9.6%,
to $48.7 million from $53.9 million in the same period last year due to the prior period $11 million receipt
of insurance claim proceeds.
Napier Port ended June 2026 with total drawn debt of $136.5 million, up from $107 million at the end of
the 2025 financial year, with undrawn bank facilities of $43.5 million, and with a total Debt to EBITDA
ratio of 1.88 times.

make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and
the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from
these estimates.
In preparing these financial statements, the significant judgements made by management in
applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation and uncertainty, are
consistent with those applied to the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended

Accounting policies:
Port operations
Port operations represents a series of services including marine, berthage and port infrastructure
services to the Group’s customers which are accounted for as a single performance obligation.
Revenue is recognised over-time using the percentage of completion method.
Revenue is measured based on the service price specified in the relevant tariffs or specific customer
contract. The contract price for the services performed reflects the value transferred to the customer.
Property operations
Property lease income is recognised on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease term.
Operating segments
The Group determines its operating segments based on internal information that is regularly
reported to the Chief Executive, who is the Group’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM).
The Group operates in one reportable segment being Port Services. This consists of providing
and managing port services and cargo handling infrastructure through Napier Port. Within the
Port Services reportable segment the following operating segments have been identified: marine
services, general cargo services, container services, port pack services and depot services. These
have been aggregated on the basis of similarities in economic characteristics, customers, nature of
services and risks.
The Group operates in one geographic area, that being New Zealand. During the period the Group
had two customers which comprised 25% of total revenue (2025: two customers 21%).

10. Management-defined performance measures
The Group uses certain management-defined performance measures in its public communications
to communicate management’s view of aspects of the Group’s operating performance. These
measures are not defined by IFRS accounting standards, which means they may not be directly
comparable to similar measures used by other entities.
The relevant measures and the reconciliation between each measure and the most directly
comparable total or subtotal specifically required by IFRS are as follows. The tax effect of each
reconciling item is determined using the statutory tax rate of 28%.
Result from operating activities
The Group uses ‘Result from operating activities’ on the face of the consolidated income statement
as it considers this metric provides the result from core operating activities for comparison from
period to period.
The result from operating activities is intended to be calculated as operating income less
operating expenses. The measure excludes income and expenses related to finance costs, taxes,
depreciation, amortisation, impairment and retirement of operating and other assets, and the
income and expenses arising from fair value changes, non-recurring and abnormal, and joint-
venture and other investment activity.
The result from operating activities measure includes certain non-cash income and expenses
related to core operating activities such as accrued income and expenses and share-based
payments.

10. Management-defined performance measures (continued)
Underlying net profit after tax
The Group uses ‘Underlying net profit after tax’ as a performance measure as it considers that this
metric provides the net profit after tax of the Group that is comparable from period to period.
Reported net profit after tax is adjusted for certain non-recurring, non-core and abnormal items,
and unrealised fair value movements. The adjustments that the Group considers appropriate are as
follows:
(i) removal of unrealised fair value movements on investment properties as this relates to non-core
activity;
(ii) removal of expenses and material damage and business interruption insurance income
attributable to the extraordinary Cyclone Gabrielle event that occurred during February 2023.
Insurance income for insured business interruption losses indemnified the Group for reduced
operating profits following Cyclone Gabrielle. The recognition of business interruption insurance
income does not necessarily match the accounting period of the reduced operating profits, as the
income recognition was determined according to the Group’s accounting policy for recognising
insurance recovery income and is dependent upon the timing of the lodgement of claims with
insurers and the timing of their review processes. The adjustment removes this timing effect and
the potential variability in income recognition; and
(iii) removal of non-recurring restructuring costs.
