DIRECTORS' REPORT
In financial year 2025, AFC Group Holdings Limited ("AFC" or "the Company”) failed
to sustain the positive momentum achieved in the prior fiscal period. The performance
shortfall primarily stemmed from a significant downturn in overseas wines sales due
to weakening demand from overseas, as well as slower than expected progress in
new business development. These operational challenges, coupled with an
unfavourable international trading environment and macroeconomic conditions,
impacted the Company’s financial performance during the period.
Summary of Financial Results
The Company reported revenues totalling $741,088 in the financial year 2025, a
decrease of 44% from last financial year. Driven by the substantial revenue reduction,
combined with the difficulty in adjusting fixed operating costs proportionately, the
Company incurred a net loss of $184,806 for this period, compared to a net profit of
$53,911 in financial year 2024. This financial setback has weakened the Company's
equity position, leaving net equity at $243,574. No dividends have been declared or
paid for the 12 months ended 31 March 2025.
As at 31 March 2025, the Company recorded a total asset of $2,129,822, including
cash and cash equivalents of $3,760. The Company will need to continue raise funds
to maintain business operations.
Outlook
AFC is well aware of the high level of uncertainty in the market. Despite the challenges,
the Group has developed a series of actions to navigate through the current difficulties,
achieve future revenue growth and create value for shareholders:
•AFC Longview Limited (“AFCLV” and “Longview Estate”): AFCLV is actively
pursuing enhanced productivity and market presence. To extend market reach
and accelerate sales growth, AFCLV plans to expand its current product line to
make our wines more accessible to a wider audience. In addition, the company
endeavours to strengthen its overseas sales channels in order to increase sales

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT
AFC Group Holdings Limited ("AFC") recognises the critical importance of sound corporate governance practices. In
fulfilment of this commitment, the Board of Directors (the ‘Board’), in conjunction with the management team, has
adopted a comprehensive set of corporate governance guidelines designed to promote the creation of value for
shareholders, the maintenance of the highest ethical standards and the implementation of control systems commensurate
with the level of risk involved.
The Board is committed to an ongoing evaluation of AFC's governance structure to ensure compliance with leading industry
practices. Recognising the constraints imposed by the current size of the business and limited resources, we have made a
conscious effort to balance the development of a financially sound business with the establishment of a structured
governance framework. Throughout the fiscal year concluding on 31 March 2025, the Board has placed emphasis on
meeting the key requirements of the NZX Listing Rules and the NZX Corporate Governance Code. However, AFC recognises
that ongoing work is required to fully comply with each of the recommendations in the Code.
The Code comprises eight (8) fundamental principles, each supported by a series of recommendations. The Board has
thoroughly evaluated and hereby reports on AFC's compliance with each of these recommendations. The contents of this
report are up-to-date as of the release date and have received the Board's ratification.
The Board report on newest version of the NZX Corporate Governance Code that revised on 1 April 2023.
The NZX Corporate Governance Code can be found on the NZX Website at: www.nzx.com/regulation/nzx-rules-
guidance/corporate-governance-code.
Principal 1 –Ethical Standards
"Directors should set high standards of ethical behaviour, model this behaviour and hold management accountable for
these standards being followed throughout the organisation."
RECOMMENDATION 1.1
The board should document minimum standards of ethical behaviour to which the issuer's directors and employees are
expected to adhere (a code of ethics).
The code of ethics and where to find it should be communicated to the issuer's employees. Training should be provided
regularly. The standards may be contained in a single policy document or more than one policy.
The code of ethics should outline internal reporting procedures for any breach of ethics, and describe the issuer's
expectations about behaviour, namely that every director and employee:
(a) acts honestly and with personal integrity in all actions;
(b) declares conflicts of interest and proactively advises of any potential conflicts;
(c) undertakes proper receipt and use of corporate information, assets and property;
(d) in the case of directors, gives proper attention to the matters before them;
(e) acts honestly and in the best interests of the issuer, shareholders and stakeholders and as required by law;
(f) adheres to any procedures around giving and receiving gifts (for example, where gifts are given that are of value in
order to influence employees and directors, such gifts should not be accepted);
(g) adheres to any procedures about whistle blowing (for example, where actions of a whistle blower have complied
with the issuer’s procedures, an issuer should protect and support them, whether or not action is taken); and
(h) manages breaches of the code
Compliance with recommendation during the year ended 31 March 2025:
The Board firmly believes that ethical behaviour is fundamental to sound corporate governance and the protection of AFC's
reputation. In line with this principle, the Board has developed ethical standards that are fully consistent with the
recommendations above and which are the same standards we expect of our management and employees.
AFC has instituted a Code of Ethics that fulfils the recommendation comprehensively. It is mandatory for all employees to
familiarize themselves with the code of ethics. and the Code of Ethics has been published on AFC’s website at
https://www.afcnz.com/.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT (continued)
RECOMMENDATION 1.2
An issuer should have a financial product dealing policy which applies to employees and directors.
Compliance with recommendation during the year ended 31 March 2025:
AFC has adopted a Financial Product Dealing Policy for employees and directors. This policy requires prior approval of all
transactions in AFC’s quoted securities and other restricted securities, specifies blackout periods for trading and defines
prohibited trading. The Financial Product Dealing Policy has been published on AFC’s website at https://www.afcnz.com/.
PRINCIPLE 2 – Board Composition & Performance
“To ensure an effective board, there should be a balance of independence, skills, knowledge, experience and
perspectives.”
The AFC Board of Directors is comprised of individuals with extensive expertise in business, technology and finance. This
diverse background enables us to lead the company with acumen and integrity. The Board is confident in its adherence to
governance principles, ensuring strong oversight and strategic direction.
Board Composition
The Board provides overall oversight of AFC's operations, guides the strategic direction of the company and ensures
compliance with all relevant legal and regulatory frameworks. We are accountable to our shareholders and stakeholders,
and AFC endeavours to maintain a Board with a broad range of skills and knowledge relevant to the industries in which we
operate. This approach helps us to respond effectively to challenges, capitalise on opportunities and ultimately create
value for all stakeholders.
As at 31 March 2025, the Board comprised of the following directors:
Yang Xia Non-Executive (Chair)
Bo Xian Cao Independent
Jingwei Ma Independent
Jianfeng Chen Non-Executive
Shuang Xia Non-Executive
Zilei Wang Independent
All directors have been appointed under the provisions of AFC’s constitution. No director has been appointed by equity
security holder under the Governing Document applying with NZX listing rule 2.4.
Bo Xian Cao, Jingwei Ma, Zilei Wang serve as independent directors for AFC. The determination of their independence has
been made by taking into account the factors outlined in the NZX Corporate Governance Code that could potentially affect
a director's independence. Jingwei Ma was assessed as an independent director by the Board as she no longer receives
any form of performance-based remuneration from the company or has any conflict of interest that could influence her
decisions. None of the independent directors have a material relationship with AFC and none are involved in the day-to-
day operation of the company.
Refer to the Directors’ Profiles section of this Annual Report for further details.
Board Meetings
The Board met 5 times during the year, which enabled the Board to be provided with accurate timely information on all
aspects of AFC’s operations and to make informed decisions.
Furthermore, the Board holds additional meetings as necessary to address specific matters that require immediate
attention, including discussions on various opportunities. The number of such additional meetings is not reflected in the
figures provided below.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT (continued)
RECOMMENDATION 2.4
Every issuer should disclose information about each director in its annual report or on its website, including:
a. a profile of experience, length of service, and ownership interests.
b. the director's attendance at board meetings; and

Compliance with recommendation during the year ended 31 March 2025:
All of the information detailed in the recommendation is included in this Annual Report and can be found in the Directors
Profiles, Corporate Governance Statement and Shareholder and Statutory Information sections.
RECOMMENDATION 2.5
An issuer should have a written diversity policy which includes requirements for the board or a relevant committee of
the board to set measurable objectives for achieving diversity (which, at a minimum, should address gender diversity)
and to assess annually both the objectives and the entity’s progress in achieving them. An issuer within the S&P/NZX 20
Index at the commencement of its reporting period should have a measurable objective for achieving gender diversity
in relation to the composition of its board, that is to have not less than 30% of its directors being male, and not less than
30% of its directors being female, within a specified period. An issuer should disclose its policy or a summary of it.
Compliance with recommendation during the year ended 31 March 2025:

an issuer.
Compliance with recommendation during the year ended 31 March 2025:
The company has not complied with the recommendation during the year ended 31 March 2025, as the board did not
engage in any training activities. However, the Board members possess a comprehensive understanding of their
responsibilities as Directors of a publicly listed company. They recognise the importance of being constantly updated on
the most effective ways of discharging their duties and plan to undergo training as and when necessary to maintain their
knowledge and competence.
RECOMMENDATION 2.7
The board should have a procedure to regularly assess director, board and committee performance.
Compliance with recommendation during the year ended 31 March 2025:
Director and Board performance is considered crucial to the success of AFC and its subsidiaries. AFC did not complied with
the recommendation during the year ended 31 March 2025. The progress made during the year is that AFC has drafted a
procedure for regular review of its performance and the performance of its members. It will be come into implementation

involve in the day-to-day management.
RECOMMENDATION 2.10
The chair and the CEO should be different people.
Compliance with recommendation during the year ended 31 March 2025:

a qualified candidate to fill the CEO position.
Principle 3 – Board Committees
“The board should use committees where this will enhance its effectiveness in key areas, while still retaining board
responsibility.”
Recommendation 3.1

1.6Going concern

Our detailed operational budgets, underpinnedbyrobust strategic initiatives, support the going concern assumption.In
June2025,a sales contracttoexport $566,000ofwine was signed.Other contractsare undernegotiation.Inthe
financial year2025,wewill continuetoexplore the Chinese wine market with abroadercatalogueofproductsand
expect the overseas wine market to continue expanding.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis. For the financial year ended 31 March
2025, the Group reported a net loss of $184,806, contrasting with a net profit of $53,911 in the prior fiscal year (2024). As of 31
March 2025, the Group’s financial position reflected current liabilities exceeding current assets by
$1,245,402 and an equity of
$243,574 (2024: $428,380). This deterioration was primarily attributed to declining sales.
However, the Directors assessed the going concern assumption as appropriate with consideration of the following key factors:
The Group holds significant unencumbered property assets, including three residential unitsatthe Longview vineyard.
These assets provide financial stabilityand,if needed,accesstolow-ratedebtfinancing through major New Zealand
banks.
The Grouphasconsiderable inventory, whichis expectedtogenerate positive cash inflows from sales with only a small
additional cash outlay.
The Group obtains deferred payment terms for related party payables totalling $1,180,381, which improves the Group's
short-term liquidity position.
TheGroup’smajor shareholderis committedtoprovide ongoing financial supporttoensure thecompany’ssustained
growthandoperational stability.Inadditiontofinancial support, thisis coupled with the integrationofthe AFC Group
into the shareholders'broaderbusiness strategy, leveraging shared resources, expertiseandmarket opportunitiesto
drive innovation and long-term value creation.
Inthe2026financial year, the Group will enhance its partnership with Chinaandpursue further growthin the Chinese
wine market. Contractsarepresentlyundernegotiation.Inaddition, the Group will actively explorenewbusiness
opportunitiesinareassuchas prepareddishes, tourismandstudy tours. These strategic initiatives aimtobroaden
revenue streams, enhance operational resilienceandreinforce the foundation for sustainable development.Byaligning
with evolving marketdemands andleveraging cross-industry synergies, the Group seekstostrengthen its long-term
competitive positioning while advancing its growth trajectory in line with shareholder objectives.
After a thorough assessment of the key factors mentioned above, the Directors reaffirmed the going concern basis for the
preparation of the consolidated financial statements. While acknowledging the uncertainties in forecasting in the current
environment, the Board of Directors remains optimistic about the Group's ability to maintain ongoing operations in the future.
As stated above, the Group’s current liabilities exceed its current assets by $1,245,402 and as such the Group relies on the
ongoing support of its parent entity and has received commitment to such ongoing support in the form of not calling upon loans
due to them. Due to the reliance on this support there exists a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt over the
Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If the Group did not continue as a going concern, the Group may be
unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. Also, additional liabilities may need to
be recorded, and the Group may not recover the amount recorded for assets.

The Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is calculated by dividing
the profitorloss attributabletoordinary shareholdersofthe Companybythe weighted averagenumber ofordinary shares
outstanding during the period.
DilutedEPSis determinedbyadjusting the profitorloss attributabletoordinary shareholdersandthe weighted averagenumber
of ordinary shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which comprises of warrants.
The Grouppreparesits consolidated financial statementsin accordance withNZIFRS, the applicationofwhich often requires

Directorsarerequiredtoadoptthose accounting policies mostappropriatetotheGroup’scircumstances for the purposeof
presenting a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows.
The following are the definitions used in the consolidated statement of cash flows:
- Cash and cash equivalents are short term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known
amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.
- Operating activities are the principal revenue-producing activities of the Group and other activities that are not
investing or financing activities.
- Investing activities are the acquisition and disposal of long-term assets not included in cash and cash
equivalents.
- Financing activitiesareactivities that resultin changesin the sizeandcompositionofthe contributed equityandborrowingsof
the Group.

Indetermining the impairmentoftrade, otherandrelated party receivables provision, the Group assesses the balancesby
applying the expected lossandforward looking approachunderNZIFRS9.This assessment involves making estimatesand
judgements regarding the historical dataandtrends, factors suchaseconomic conditions, external ratings, cash flow

Independent auditor’s report to the shareholders of AFC Group
Holdings Limited
Report on the audit of the consolidated financial statements
Disclaimer of opinion
We do not express an opinion on the accompanying consolidated financial statements of AFC Group
Holdings Limited(the Company) and its subsidiaries (the Group). Because of the significance of the
matter described in the Basis for disclaimer of opinionsection of our report, we have not been able to
obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion on the consolidated
financial statements.
We were engaged to audit the consolidated financial statements of the Group, which comprise:
—the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 March 2025,
—the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the year then ended,
—the consolidated statement of changes in equity for the year then ended,
—the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and
—notes to the consolidated financial statements, including material accounting policy information.
Basis for disclaimer of opinion
As disclosed in Note 1.6 to the financial statements the Group has several factors that give rise to a
material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the Group’s ability to continue as a Going
Concern. These factors include a net loss of $184,806 for the year ended 31 March 2025, net cash outflow
from operating activities of $275,697, cash at bank of $3,760 as at 31 March 2025 and a net current liability
of $1,245,402 as at 31 March 2025. Although the Group reported a positive equity position of $243,574 at
31 March 2025, the outcome of proposed revenue streams and the availability of shareholder support
remain uncertain. These uncertainties, together with challenges in generating positive cash flows in recent
years and the absence of adequate committed funding from shareholders, means we were unable to obtain
sufficient appropriate audit evidence to form an opinion on the Going Concern assumption adopted in the
preparation of the consolidated financial statements.
Page | 63
Other information
The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information
included in the Group’s annual report for the year ended 31 March 2025, but does not include the
consolidated financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not
express any form of audit opinion or assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other
information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the
consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be
materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other
information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
Directors’ responsibilities for the consolidated financial statements
The directors are responsible on behalf of the Group for the preparation and fair presentation of the
consolidated financial statements in accordance with New Zealand equivalents to International Financial
Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS), and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to
enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the directors are responsible on behalf of the Group for
assessing the Group’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 the directors either
intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial
statements
Our responsibility is to conduct an audit of the Group’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with
International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand) and to issue an auditor’s report. However, because of
the matters described in the Basis for disclaimer of opinion section of our report, we were not able to obtain
sufficient appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion on these consolidated financial
statements.
We are independent of the Group in accordance with Professional and Ethical Standard 1 International
Code of Ethics for Assurance Practitioners (including International Independence Standards) (New
Zealand) issued by the New Zealand Auditing and Assurance Standards Board, and we have fulfilled our
other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.
Other than in our capacity as auditor we have no relationship with, or interests in, the Group.
The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor’s report is Bonita Swanepoel.

Restriction on distribution and use
This independent auditor’s report is made solely to the shareholders, as a body. Our audit work has been
undertaken so that we might state to the shareholders those matters which we are required to state to them
in the independent auditor’s 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 shareholders, as a body, for our audit work or
for this independent auditor’s report.
