LETTER FROM THE CHAIR AND CEO
W h a t ’s
simmering
The My Food Bag Board is delighted
to announce record earnings for the
six-month period to 30 September 2021,
with NPAT and EBITDA
1
up 24.6% and
11.6%, respectively, on the prior year.
Revenue for the period of $98.4 million is down 6.5%
year-on-year due to the 2020 nationwide lockdown spike.
These results reflect that we are on track to deliver the
previously forecast full year EBITDA of $34.2m, which
will be up 18% year-on-year.
This report marks the halfway point of our first full year as
a publicly listed company and demonstrates clear progress,
and the achievement of some important milestones, as we
grow within New Zealand’s $37 billion retail food sector.
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
Deliveries and revenue during H1 FY22 were in line with
expectations.
During the first half of this financial year, My Food Bag recorded
revenue of $98.4 million. We also recorded net profit after
tax of $9.4 million, up 24.6% year-on-year, and EBITDA of
$16.0 million, up 11.6% year-on-year. The growth of EBITDA
was underpinned by procurement optimisation that led to
improved contribution margin, at a rate of 26.3%.
Total deliveries of 808k during H1 FY22 were down on
the same period in FY21, due to a spike during the first
Alert Level 4 nationwide lockdown in 2020.
Average order value was also slightly down on H1 FY21,
from $124.04 to $121.81. Again, this was mainly driven
by a spike in larger bag orders during the first Alert Level 4
nationwide lockdown, as well as an upweight of marketing
discounts and stronger Bargain Box performance skewing
brand mix during the first half of FY22.
Pleasingly active customers increased by 3.3% compared
to H1 FY21 and high value active customers
2
grew by 3.1%
year-on-year, with margin improvements further increasing
their value. Retained customer numbers remained strong at
around 60% of active customers during the last six months.
DIVIDEND AND REAFFIRMING GUIDANCE
Due to these strong results and outlook, the Board is pleased to
declare a fully imputed interim dividend of 3.0 cents per share,
payable on 16 December 2021. A final dividend of 4.0 cents
per share is forecast to be paid in 2022, following the release
of the FY22 results.
This interim dividend allows for sufficient retained cash to fund
growth requirements internally and, together with the expected
final dividend, represents a distribution of approximately
85% of anticipated net profit after tax (within My Food Bag's
distribution policy which aims to distribute between 70%
and 90% of NPAT).
The Board is also pleased to reaffirm its FY22 EBITDA guidance
of $34.2m as outlined in My Food Bag’s Prospective Financial
Information (PFI) prior to listing. While revenue for FY22 is
now anticipated to be slightly improved on the PFI, this is not
expected to result in an increase in earnings for the period
given higher input costs and operating expenses associated
with operating safely during the pandemic and introducing
new product initiatives.
1. A reconciliation from GAAP NPAT to non-GAAP EBITDA can be found in the appendices to the FY22 Half Year Results Announcement Presentation at www.myfoodbag.co.nz.
2. High value active customer is a customer who has taken at least 20 deliveries in the past 12 months.

BUSINESS UPDATE
OPERATING AS AN ESSENTIAL SERVICE
Building on our 2020 COVID-19 business continuity plans,
our operations smoothly transitioned when the country, once
again, found itself in Alert Level 4 during August. This included
rigorous planning to position us well to manage health and
safety, and any supply chain disruptions.
We experienced an increase in demand during the short nation-
wide Alert Level 4 lockdown. We also incurred increased costs
stemming from reduced productivity in operations as a result of
changed operating procedures, the provision of additional PPE
and other safety measures implemented during this time.
Thankfully, as in 2020, My Food Bag recorded zero cases of
COVID-19 among its workforce, and we continued to adhere
to the robust processes to protect business continuity to manage
any suspected COVID-19 cases.
We would like to take this opportunity, on behalf of the My Food
Bag Board of Directors and Senior Leadership Team, to convey
our heart-felt thanks to every member of our resilient, amazing
team for their dedication during this period and ongoing.
EXPANDING BEYOND MEALS
Since our inception, we’ve delivered exciting products and
recipes that reflect Kiwis’ changing food preferences. This half
year was no different, as we successfully launched phase one
of the My Food Bag Kitchen.
The My Food Bag Kitchen expands our offer beyond meal kits
and ready made meals, for the first time, with a range of curated
go-to grocery products and recipes, specifically selected by
our chefs, that customers can add to their orders. This is our first
significant step outside of weeknight meals and signals our move
beyond providing a solution to the original question of ‘What’s
for dinner?’ towards providing more everyday solutions for our
customers for more meal occasions.
The Kitchen takes My Food Bag into eight new categories and is
one plank of our growth strategy to access a greater proportion
of New Zealand’s $37 billion retail food sector. Top categories
to emerge from the first phase of the Kitchen include sides and
snacks, baking and dessert, breakfast and pantry items.
This initial offering in phase one is available across My Food
Bag, Bargain Box and Fresh Start and uses our existing
operational footprint and resources to extend our offering.
During phase one of the My Food Bag Kitchen we have
achieved attachment rates in line with our internal target of
10% – 15% and an average order value in excess of $20
in September.
In order to keep building attachment rates and average
order values we will keep optimising and growing the range.
By leveraging the insights from the first phase of the Kitchen, we
have identified significant opportunities to invest and accelerate
in order to establish ourselves as a source of highly valued
solutions, beyond meals, for our customer base.
In the medium term, this will include enhancing availability to
customers with or without a meal kit order, as well as reducing
the time between ordering and delivery.
GROWING CHOICE
During the first half of the financial year we also expanded the
number of bags offering recipe choice.
Our data demonstrates that recipe choice is driving higher active
customer growth and increasing order frequency. The expansion
of choice is one of the underpinning factors of our confidence
in H2 performance.
First launched in January 2020, My Food Bag My Choice
initially allowed customers to pick from 10 options, across a
range of family-friendly recipes, ready-made meals and quick
cooking options. This initiative gave customers more options
every week, encouraging them to purchase more frequently
from us.
During this half year we expanded to 15 meal options across
My Choice and began offering recipe choice across Bargain
Box and Fresh Start brands.
We are also proud to have partnered with The New Zealand
Heart Foundation and University of Otago to develop recipes
to assist with their studies to help Kiwis achieve good health
outcomes. As part of these partnerships we now offer at least
two heart healthy meals in our My Choice range each week.

COMMUNITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
Our sustainability vision is to build a healthier food system
for our customers, Aotearoa and the world.
As part of this vision, just before the beginning of FY22
we launched our first Soft-Plastics Recycling Programme.
This initiative, in partnership with the NZ Packaging Forum
and Future Post, enables NZ Post to collect all our customers’
soft-plastics, and then responsibly recycle it.
The programme has proved popular. To date, we’ve distributed
12,000 soft-plastic recovery bags, which translates into diverting
approximately six tonnes of soft-plastics from landfill to recycling.
Packaging sustainability has also been an aspect of the
My Food Bag Kitchen launch, as we’ve prioritised non-plastic
packaging and cleaning accessories throughout the range.
Beyond packaging, we have maintained our commitment to
minimising food waste through our source-to-order business
model, and working with charities to ensure leftover ingredients
and food are not wasted. We donated more than 35,000 meals
in the first half of this financial year.
During H1 we have grown our partnership with Garden to Table
by using the My Food Bag Kitchen as a channel to sell Garden
to Table baking recipes. All profits from the recipes go directly
to support schools to participate in this valuable programme.
BUILDING FOR FUTURE GROWTH
We have also made timely progress on a purpose built
assembly site in the South Island. We anticipate this site to
be operational in Q1 FY23.
OUTLOOK
As a business, we are well-positioned to benefit from the
accelerated adoption and retention of digital channels seen
across multiple geographies and categories.
We continue to experience high levels of input cost growth
across most areas, but it has been particularly the case with
food ingredients. An effectively closed border for New Zealand
has tightened the labour market causing upwards pressure on
wages, alongside supply chain disruptions, and weather events
locally, this has contributed to an inflationary environment for
the company.
In the immediate future, we forecast that average order value
will be higher in H2 FY22 than H1 due to the first phase of
the My Food Bag Kitchen, a favourable brand mix and a
price rise in October.
We are also forecasting an increase in deliveries during H2
compared to the same period a year ago. We also anticipate
our contribution margin in H2 to improve based on seasonality
(lower produce costs) and the benefit of ongoing continuous
improvement initiatives.
We are informing our growth strategy through the first phase
of the My Food Bag Kitchen and building the footprint we
need to profitably expand into the second phase during FY23.
This second phase will see us introduce new categories and
deepen our offer in some of the categories that have proven
successful to date.
The business continues to see opportunities for vertical
integration, which will be margin accretive and add further
operational flexibility beyond the PFI period.
The strength of our balance sheet allows us the flexibility to
consider M&A activity when the right option is available to us.

SUMMARY
My Food Bag has continued to operate as an essential service
since August 2021 when New Zealand entered a new period
of lockdowns in response to the COVID-19 Delta variant
being present in our communities. As our top priority, we have
looked after our staff and stakeholders’ wellbeing through
these uncertain periods.
My Food Bag continues to meet more and more of
New Zealanders’ demand for high quality, locally sourced
food ingredients combined with Kiwi developed recipes
that meet their lifestyle needs. By adding recipe choice and
additional Kitchen items, we have seen customer numbers,
purchase frequency and order values respond favourably.
The FY22 EBITDA outlook remains consistent with the
prospective financial information issued prior to listing.
Looking beyond the PFI period and into FY23, the business
continues to see opportunities for growth from its core product
offering and its expansion of the My Food Bag Kitchen, and
is well positioned to pursue inorganic growth opportunities
that arise and offer value to the business.

MY FOOD BAG GROUP LIMITED INTERIM REPORT 2022
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2021
General Information
Reporting Entity
My Food Bag Group Limited is a profit-orientated company incorporated and domiciled in New Zealand. My Food Bag Group
Limited is registered under the Companies Act 1993 and is an FMC reporting entity under the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013.
My Food Bag Group Limited is listed on the NZX Main Board and as a Foreign Exempt Listing on the Australian Securities Exchange
(ASX).
The interim financial statements presented are for My Food Bag Group Limited and its subsidiary My Food Bag Limited (together
referred to as “the Group”) for the six months ended 30 September 2021.
These interim financial statements were authorised for issue by the Directors on 18 November 2021.
Basis of Preparation
STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE
These interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and NZ IAS 34 Interim
Financial Reporting. They have also been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (GAAP) applicable
to for-profit entities.
These interim financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in annual financial statements and
should be read in conjunction with the Group’s annual financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2021.
These interim financial statements are presented in New Zealand dollars, which is company’s functional currency. Amounts have
been rounded to the nearest thousand dollars, unless otherwise stated.
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Other than the change discussed below in relation to Software as a Service arrangements, the accounting policies applied in the
preparation of these interim financial statements were consistent with those applied in the Group’s annual financial statements for the
year ended 31 March 2021.
Software as a Service (SaaS) arrangements
In April 2021, the IFRS Interpretations Committee published a final agenda decision, Configuration or Customisation Costs in a
Cloud Computing Arrangement. This agenda decision confirms that in a SaaS arrangement, costs incurred to configure or customise
the provider’s application software are recognised as an expense when the services are received.
SaaS arrangements are service contracts providing the Group with the right to access a cloud provider’s application software over
the contract period. The Group has previously capitalised configuration and customisation costs incurred in implementing a SaaS
arrangement as an intangible software asset and amortised them over the contract period.
The change in recognition of these costs has been applied retrospectively and impacted these interim financial statements as follows:
Statement of Comprehensive Income:
• An increase in IT expenses for the period ended 30 September 2020 of NZ$59,000;
• A decrease in amortisation expense on intangible assets for the period ended 30 September 2020 of NZ$59,000.
Statement of Financial Position:
• An increase in prepayments at 31 March 2021 of NZ$1,217,000;
• A decrease in intangible assets at 31 March 2021 of NZ$1,217,000.
Statement of Cash Flows:
• An increase in payments to suppliers and employees for the period ended 30 September 2020 of NZ$237,000;
• A decrease in payments for development of digital assets for the period ended 30 September 2020 of NZ$237,000.
KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY AND KEY JUDGMENTS
In preparing these interim financial statements, the significant judgements made in applying the Group’s accounting policies and
the key sources of estimation uncertainty were consistent with those applied to the Group’s annual financial statements for the year
ended 31 March 2021.

our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim financial statements of the
Group do not present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as at 30 September 2021, and its financial
performance and its cash flows for the period ended on that date, in accordance with New Zealand Equivalent to International
Accounting Standard 34: Interim Financial Reporting.
This report is made solely to the Company's shareholders, as a body. Our review has been undertaken so that we might state to
the Company's shareholders those matters we are required to state to them in a review report and for no other purpose. To the
fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Company and the Company's
shareholders as a body, for our review procedures, for this report, or for the conclusion we have formed.
BASIS FOR CONCLUSION
We conducted our review in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) Review of Financial Statements Performed by the Independent
Auditor of the Entity. Our responsibilities are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Review of the Financial
Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements in
New Zealand relating to the audit of the annual financial statements, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in
accordance with these ethical requirements.
Other than in our capacity as auditor we have no relationship with, or interest in, the Group. Partners and employees of our firm
may deal with the Group on normal terms within the ordinary course of trading activities of the business of the Group.
DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Directors are responsible, on behalf of the entity, for the preparation and fair presentation of the interim financial statements in
accordance with New Zealand Equivalent to International Accounting Standard 34: Interim Financial Reporting and for such internal
control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation and fair presentation of the interim financial statements that
are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Information other than the financial statements and auditor’s report
Those charged with governance are responsible for the Annual Report, which includes information other
than the financial statements and auditor’s report which is expected to be made available to us after the
date of this auditor’s report.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any
form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other
information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the
financial statements or our knowledge obtained during the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially
misstated.
When we read the Annual Report, if we conclude that there is a material misstatement therein, we are
required to communicate the matter to those charged with governance and, if uncorrected, to take
appropriate action to bring the matter to the attention of users for whom our auditor’s report was
prepared.
Those charged with governance responsibilities for the financial statements
Those charged with Governance are responsible, on behalf of the entity, for the preparation and fair
presentation of the financial statements in accordance with Public Benefit Entity Standards Reduced
Disclosure Regime, and for such internal control as those charged with governance determine is
necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, those charged with governance are responsible for assessing on
behalf of the entity the Foundation’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable,
matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless those charged
with governance either intend to liquidate the Foundation or cease operations, or have no realistic
alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are
free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that
includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an
audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand) will always detect
a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered
material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic
decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

MY FOOD BAG GROUP LIMITED INTERIM REPORT 2022
AUDITOR’S RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE REVIEW OF THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the interim financial statements based on our review. NZ SRE 2410 (Revised)
requires us to conclude whether anything has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim financial statements,
taken as a whole, are not prepared in all material respects, in accordance with New Zealand Equivalent to International Accounting
Standard 34: Interim Financial Reporting.
A review of interim financial statements in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) is a limited assurance engagement. We perform
procedures, consisting of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying
analytical and other review procedures. The procedures performed in a review are substantially less than those performed in an
audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand) and consequently do not enable us to
obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not
express an audit opinion on those interim financial statements.
The engagement partner on the review resulting in this independent auditor’s review report is Brent Penrose.

My Food Bag achieves record earnings and confirms maiden dividend
My Food Bag is pleased to release its half year results for the six months ended 30 September 2021. These
results demonstrate a strong first half of the year for the business, underpinned by a combination of
operational achievements and further product innovation.
Highlights include:
NPAT of $9.4 million, up 24.6% on H1 FY21
EBITDA
1
of $16.0 million, up 11.6% on H1 FY21
Active customers up 3.3% compared to the end of H1 FY21
High value active customers
2
up 3.1% year-on-year
Revenue of $98.4 million, down 6.5% year-on-year due to 2020 nationwide lockdown spike
Launch of My Food Bag Kitchen, the business’ first significant step outside of weeknight meals
Expanded recipe choice to include Bargain Box and Fresh Start brands
Fully imputed interim dividend of 3.0 cents per share declared
Tony Carter, Chairman of My Food Bag says “These results mark the halfway point of our first full year as a
publicly listed company and demonstrate clear progress, and the achievement of some important milestones,
as we grow within New Zealand’s $37 billion retail food sector.
“We are pleased to have achieved record earnings as a business and to be in a position to declare our first
dividend as a listed company. While demand remained solid through the half year period, total deliveries of
808k and an average order value of $121.81 were lower than the same period in FY21, owing to a spike during
the 2020 nationwide lockdown in the early part of the pandemic response.
“Pleasingly, during H1 FY22, the business increased active customer numbers by 3.3% and grew high value
active customers
2
by 3.1% year-on-year, with margin improvements further increasing their value. Retained
customer numbers remained strong at around 60% of active customers throughout the last six months.”
As a result of H1 FY22 performance and outlook, the Board is pleased to reaffirm its FY22 EBITDA guidance of
$34.2m, which represents an 18% improvement year-on-year. While revenue for FY22 is now anticipated to be
slightly improved on the Prospective Financial Information (PFI), this is not expected to result in an increase in
earnings for the period given higher input costs and operating expenses associated with operating safely
during the pandemic and introducing new product initiatives.
The Board has declared a fully imputed interim dividend of 3.0 cents per share, payable on 16 December 2021,
with a final dividend of 4.0 cents per share forecast to be paid in 2022 following the release of FY22 results.
This dividend allows for sufficient retained cash to fund growth requirements internally and, on a full year
basis, represents a distribution of approximately 85% of anticipated net profit after tax (within My Food Bag's
distribution policy which aims to distribute between 70% and 90% of NPAT).
CEO, Kevin Bowler, commented: “During the first half of FY22, we launched the first phase of the My Food Bag
Kitchen, which is an important step towards expanding our offering beyond meal kits and ready made meals.
We now offer a range of curated go-to grocery products and recipes, specifically selected by our chefs, that
customers can add to their orders. This is our first significant step outside of weeknight meals and signals our

move beyond providing a solution to the original question of ‘What’s for dinner?’ towards providing more
everyday solutions for our customers for more meal occasions.
“Throughout the first phase of the Kitchen, we achieved attachment rates in line with internal targets of 10%
to 15% and an average order value in excess of $20. We also identified significant opportunities to invest and
accelerate further to establish ourselves as a source of highly valued solutions, beyond meals, for our
customers,” says Bowler.
The business also expanded its recipe choice offering. My Food Bag My Choice now has 15 meal options a
week and meal choice is also now part of the Bargain Box and Fresh Start brands.
“Our data demonstrates that recipe choice is driving higher active customer growth and increasing order
frequency. So, the expansion of choice is one of the underpinning factors of our confidence in H2
performance,” says Bowler.
Looking beyond the PFI period and into FY23, the business continues to see opportunities for growth from its
core product offering and its expansion of the My Food Bag Kitchen, and is well positioned to pursue inorganic
growth opportunities that arise and offer value to the business.
