Transport and logistics group, MOVE Logistics Group Limited (NZX/ASX: MOV), has today reported its
results for the year ended 30 June 2025 (FY25).
The company has delivered on its financial targets as it continues to make good progress on its
transformation plan. Normalised earnings before tax (NEBT) improved significantly and was up 61%
year on year (YOY), with 4Q25 being the strongest quarter in two years. MOVE also achieved positive
net adjusted operating cashflow, in line with its projections.
Chair of MOVE, Julia Raue, said: “The road to recovery is never easy, but we are executing at pace to
restore and build on the core strengths that have always defined MOVE, while laying the
groundwork for a new chapter. While there is still more to do, our work is making MOVE stronger
and we will be better positioned than many others in the market when demand returns.”
CEO, Paul Millward, commented: “Execution of our transformation programme has us on track to
create value and deliver positive normalised earnings in FY26. The Accelerate transformation plan
has been well executed by the team and we are now a far stronger organisation with most legacy
issues resolved. We have one year of the Accelerate programme remaining and are crystal clear on
what we need to do to realise the full value of MOVE for all stakeholders.
Transformation programme providing business resilience and momentum
As previously advised in MOVE’s preliminary results update:
Three of MOVE’s four businesses have delivered significantly improved normalised earnings. A
highlight has been the turnaround in MOVE’s Freight & Fuel business
3
, which delivered increased
revenue and improved gross margins. The division’s NEBT loss improved by 90% year on year,
moving to a positive Normalised EBT result in 4Q25.
The Specialist division remains a strong performer and the International business continues to
deliver steady results, with a continuation of the Oceans shipping pilot supported by recently
renewed contracts from foundational customers. Warehousing remains challenged with excess
market capacity and intensifying competitive and pricing pressure. A major reset of the business is

Normalised EBITDA (NEBT) and Normalised EBT exclude non-controlling interest and non-trading adjustments of $4.2m pre-tax related to
asset impairment, settlement & restructuring costs. FY25 EBITDA and EBT before adjustments was $38.8m and $(14.2)m respectively.

Move’s Fuel business was transferred from Contract Logistics (now Warehousing) to the Freight segment in FY25. FY24 has been restated
accordingly.
taking place under new leadership. A strong commitment to customer partnerships and service
excellence has seen retention of key customers as well as new business wins which will commence
in 1H26.
A significant part of the transformation plan was to optimise MOVE’s network for the future. In line
with this, a new, modern Freight branch is being opened in Dunedin, and MOVE is exiting two under-
utilised warehouse sites with the majority of associated revenue consolidated into an existing site.
These changes will have a positive financial impact in FY26, primarily in H2 FY26.
Trading conditions
The trading environment remained challenging throughout FY25, as the economic recovery stalled,
with continued cost pressures, slowing volumes and increased competitive intensity.
Cost of living pressures, rising unemployment and high interest rates impacted on consumer spend,
with a flow on effect on freight and warehouse demand across the sector. Inflation moderated,
however cost pressures remain. Disruption to inter-island transport due to ageing ferries and
increasing out-of-service, as well as road, rail and ferry disruption from regional flooding and
extreme weather events also impacted during the year.
FY25 financial performance
Sales revenue of $286.3m was relatively flat YOY in a weak economy as MOVE continues to retain
and win customers on the back of customer service delivery and its national offer.
The broad cost out programme has delivered a sustainable ~$27m reduction in operating expenses,
comprising labour savings of ~$15m and a further $12m in cost out and efficiencies.
Gross margin improved strongly despite the relatively flat revenue result, highlighting the
effectiveness of the cost out and efficiency programme and creating stronger operating leverage for
when demand recovers. Gross margin percentage was up 4.1pp YOY, with gross margin dollars up
13.4%.
Normalised earnings growth was seen across all businesses except Warehousing, with a re-set
programme in place for this business. MOVE has now delivered four consecutive quarters of
improving Normalised Earnings Before Tax (NEBT) including its strongest NEBT quarterly result in the
past two years in 4Q25. This resulted in a YOY 61% earnings improvement (+$16m) to $(10)m.
Operating cashflow benefitted from improved operating results and disciplined working capital
management and was up 35% to $25.3m, with adjusted net operating cashflow of $0.3m.
MOVE’s net loss after tax
4
reduced by $32.5m to $(15.6)m with consistent improvement across the
year.

Outlook
The focus on gross margin has created a strong foundation, with the full benefits of the cost out
programme to be realised in FY26. A lift in market activity and customer demand, combined with
improvements from transformation plan, will enable earnings growth and the company remains on
track to return to positive normalised EBT in FY26.
Paul said: “With one year of the Accelerate programme remaining, we are now moving from cost out
to value creation. We have a passionate and expert team who deliver for MOVE’s customers every
day and we are focused on winning in market to create revenue and margin growth.
“Our four year New Horizons roadmap sets out our pathway to FY28 as we focus on achieving our
goals and becoming the preferred logistics provider in New Zealand. While there is more work
ahead, we are confident that the changes underway are laying the groundwork for a stronger,
profitable and more resilient business.
“The New Zealand freight and warehousing industry is estimated to be worth more than $10 billion.
At MOVE, we are working hard to build our share of this market and ensure we are the preferred
provider for New Zealand businesses.“
While the timing and speed of an economic recovery remains uncertain, MOVE is positioned well
with a rightsized business providing broad and relevant propositions across the freight and logistics
sector - underpinned by a lower cost base, national network, a great team and strong customer
partnerships.

Delivering
at scale
When people work together with respect
and shared purpose, great things happen.
We team up with our customers to deliver
reliable, safe, and smart solutions – creating
long-term impact through genuine
collaboration and operational excellence.
Creating an end-to-end
nationwide network solution
with Z Energy
Since 2009, MOVE and long-term customer Z Energy
(Z), one of Aotearoa New Zealand’s leading transport
energy providers, have worked to create an end-
to-end nationwide network solution – providing fully
managed delivery, stock oversight and skilled driver
resources across the country.
Through our strong relationship with Z, we are proud to
deliver fuel from Z’s terminals to its nationwide network
of over 500 retail sites (including Caltex and most
recently, U-GO branded sites) and truck stops. Last
year, 58 MOVE trucks moved over 2 billion litres of fuel
and made over 68,000 deliveries across the Z network
with a 99.7% delivery success rate.
At MOVE, we continue to invest in a modern and
fuel-efficient fleet to support the reduction of our
operational emissions. For our work across the Z
network, we are focusing on the use of high productivity
motor vehicles HPMVs and route optimisation.
MOVE is also continuing to explore the viability of
emerging technologies, such as alternative fuels and
electrification, that could support the reduction of our
operational emissions whilst still allowing us to deliver a
safe and reliable service for our customers.

ANNUAL REPORT 2025
From the Chair
This year, the accolades must go to our
people. In a challenging environment,
they have stepped up and their energy,
adaptability and drive continue to be
our company’s greatest asset. As we
have progressed the turnaround of
our business, we’ve reconnected with
what makes this company great: a
strong, capable team with deep local
roots and a shared determination
to get the job done. The positive
momentum we are seeing today
is a reflection of their dedication,
effort, energy and care.
Julia Raue, Chair

FY25 was a year of significant transformation as we
moved with purpose to reset the business for long-
term success. The scope and scale of work delivered
under our transformation programme has been
considerable, touching every part of the organisation.
We are conscious of the impact this has had on our
people as we have rightsized our organisation and
reduced our cost base.
With one year of the Accelerate programme left to run,
we are now moving from cost out to value creation.
While we’re encouraged by the progress made and
the improving results, we acknowledge there is still
work to do. Performance is not yet where it needs
to be, but momentum is building as we continue to
execute our turnaround strategy.
We are positioning MOVE to be the provider of choice
for New Zealand businesses, with the people and the
capability to deliver for our customers. We believe the
work we have been doing is making MOVE stronger
and we will be better positioned than many others in
the market when demand returns. Alongside MOVE’s
new leadership, we have developed a four-year
roadmap, laying out a clear actionable plan as we
build a stronger, smarter business.
Strengthened leadership
The appointment of Paul Millward as interim CEO
from September 2024 was a key milestone and the
Board was delighted when he took up the permanent
role in February this year. Paul has brought fresh
energy to the business and a strong commitment to
delivering meaningful change. He has strengthened
the leadership team with new appointments in critical
business management roles and is leading with
purpose and commercial rigour as we shift our focus
from turnaround to value creation.
Financial performance
We continued to operate in a challenging trading
environment throughout FY25, with cost pressures,
slowing volumes and increased competitive
intensity. In particular, we have seen reduced
customer demand and volumes as their consumers,
in turn, buy less. We retained revenue in a weak
trading environment, delivered significant earnings
improvement and were pleased to see our margins
continue to lift as a result of the cost out and efficiency
programme, despite relatively flat revenue.
We achieved both our financial targets for the year,
with a significant 61% improvement in normalised
earnings, and delivery of positive adjusted net
operating cashflow.
The Board continues to closely monitor capital
requirements and balance sheet flexibility to ensure
transformation opportunities can be maximised. We
have a prudent approach to capital expenditure and
will invest in equipment as required, as we sell off older
or surplus assets. MOVE established a new funding
partnership in August last year and in February this
year, we extended our bank facility to August 2026.
Whilst our overall results are still not where we want
them to be, with a reported loss
4
of $(15.6)m for the
year (which was a $32.5m improvement on the prior
year), we are seeing positive momentum and traction
starting to be made.
Governance
As a Board, we remain committed to delivering long-
term value for shareholders while staying true to our
purpose. Over the past year, we have adapted our
Board composition and size as we progressed through
the first stage of the Accelerate programme. Long
standing Directors - Lorraine Witten, Mark Newman
and Grant Devonport - all stepped down in the last
year, alongside Gregory Kern who was appointed
for a short time following a request from substantial
shareholders. I was honoured to be asked to take on
the role of Chair in June 2024 and would like to express
my appreciation for the support of both past and
current Directors over the past 12 months.
While the Board believes that five Directors is
appropriate for a company the size and scale of
MOVE, the recruitment of additional Directors has been
paused while the business transformation is underway.
The Board is confident that the current Directors have
the skills to oversee the turnaround of MOVE and
that the reduced size and cost savings will benefit
shareholders during this period.
Looking ahead
The New Zealand freight and warehousing industry is
estimated to be worth more than $10 billion. At MOVE,
we are working hard to build our share of this market
and ensure we are the preferred provider for
New Zealand businesses.
Central to achieving our goal is our four-year New
Horizons roadmap. While there is more work ahead, we
are confident that the changes underway are laying
the groundwork for a stronger, profitable and more
resilient business.
As a Board, we remain focused on delivering value
for shareholders while ensuring the business is well
positioned to meet the future with confidence. We’ve
achieved sizeable and meaningful change and are
clear about the work that needs to be executed over
the coming year.
We appreciate your continued support and look
forward to building on this momentum in the
year ahead.

ANNUAL REPORT 2025
CEO’s Report
I am pleased to report to
shareholders following eleven
months as CEO. FY25 has been a
defining year for MOVE — a year of
hard work and meaningful progress.
Focusing on the goals and priorities
set in late FY24, we launched and
began delivering a wide-reaching
transformation programme
to recalibrate the business,
strengthening the foundations
and setting a clear path
for sustainable growth.
Paul Millward, Chief Executive Officer
10
The recessionary economy in FY25 did us no favours as
tough trading conditions continued to bite, with lower
volumes and intensifying competition putting
pressure on margins. Despite this, we’ve made good
progress – rightsizing our business, significantly
reducing costs and driving gross margin expansion.
I want to acknowledge and thank the team for being
open to change and for their dedication to achieve this
progress.
Financial performance
While our financial results are still not where they need
to be, the improvement and momentum seen in FY25
gives me confidence that we are on the right track with
our transformation programme.
We delivered on our targets with Normalised Earnings
Before Tax (NEBT) significantly ahead of prior year; and
positive net adjusted operating cashflow.
Sales revenue was retained in a weak economy and we
continue to retain and win customers on the back of
customer service delivery and our national offer.
The broad cost out programme has delivered a
sustainable ~$27m reduction in operating expenses,
comprising labour savings of ~$15m and a further $12m
in cost out and efficiencies.
Gross margin improved strongly despite the flat
revenue result, highlighting the effectiveness of the
cost out and efficiency programme. Gross margin
percentage was up 4.1 percentage points year on year,
with gross margin dollars up 13.4%.
Normalised earnings growth was seen across all
businesses except Warehousing, and we have a re-set
programme in place for this business. MOVE has now
delivered four consecutive quarters of improving NEBT
including our strongest quarterly result in the past
two years in 4Q25. This resulted in a year on year 61.1%
improvement (+$15.7m) to $(10)m.
Operating cashflow benefitted from improved
operating results and disciplined working capital
management and was up 35% to $25.3m, with adjusted
net operating cashflow of $0.3m.
MOVE’s net loss after tax reduced by $32.5m to
$(15.6)m with consistent improvement across the year.
Operational performance
A highlight for the year has been the turnaround
in MOVE’s Freight & Fuel business
5
, which delivered
increased revenue and improved gross margins. The
division’s NEBT loss improved by 90% year on year,
moving to a positive NEBT result in 4Q25.
The Specialist division remains a strong performer,
supported by a multi-year pipeline of activity. The
International business continues to deliver steady
results, with a continuation of the Oceans shipping
pilot supported by recently renewed contracts from
foundational customers.
Warehousing remains challenged with excess market
capacity and intensifying competitive and pricing
pressure. A major reset of the business is taking
place under new leadership. A strong commitment
to customer partnerships and service excellence
has seen retention of key customers as well as new
business wins which will commence in 1H26.
A significant part of the transformation plan was to
optimise MOVE’s network for the future. In line with this,
we are moving to a new, modern Freight branch in
Dunedin, and are exiting two under-utilised warehouse
sites with the majority of associated revenue
consolidated into an existing site. These changes will
have a positive financial impact in FY26.
You can read more on each of our businesses and
their performance on pages 16 - 23.
Our people
An important path in transforming our business
has been to ensure we have the right people in the
right places to deliver for our customers. Making the
decision to reduce roles is one of the hardest things
we face as a business, and we do not take it lightly. In
the face of ongoing economic pressure, we’ve had to
make difficult choices to ensure the long-term health
of the business — but we approached each decision
with care, compassion and responsibility. I want to
acknowledge and thank those who have left us for
their contributions.
Against this backdrop, our people have stepped up.
Their commitment, resilience, adaptability and drive
have been critical in keeping our business moving and
our customers well served.
5
MOVE’s Fuel business was transferred from Contract Logistics (now Warehousing) to the Freight segment in FY25. FY24 has been restated accordingly.
11
ANNUAL REPORT 2025
CEO’s Report
Our transformation is not just about systems and
structure — it’s also about mindset and culture. We’re
working hard to further embed positive behaviours
and build a high-performance culture, while ensuring
our people feel empowered and supported. Strong
culture drives strong results, and this will remain a
key priority.
A focus area has been leadership development to
help unlock the full potential of our people and our
business. I’m committed to ensuring this reaches all
levels of the organisation.
Opportunities amidst disruption
With around $30 billion in freight crossing the
Cook Strait each year, the retirement of the only
rail-enabled ferry in 2025 will significantly reduce
capacity until new vessels arrive in 2029. Our South
Island logistics hubs are well positioned to support
customers during this period, helping them anchor
their distribution locally and reducing cost, risk and
supply chain complexity. Our scalable infrastructure
and responsive team are ready to meet demand
— reinforcing our strategy to deliver certainty where
and when it’s needed most.
Outlook
We are very clear about the work we still need
to do to deliver the value and performance our
shareholders expect from us. Our four year New
Horizons roadmap sets out our pathway to FY28 as
we focus on achieving our goals and becoming the
preferred logistics provider in New Zealand.
With one year of the Accelerate programme
remaining, we are now moving from cost out to value
creation. The focus on gross margin has created a
strong foundation, with the full benefits of the cost
out programme to be realised in the current year.
The company remains on track to return to positive
normalised EBT in FY26.
While the timing and speed of an economic recovery
remains uncertain, MOVE is positioned well with a
rightsized business providing broad and relevant
propositions across the freight and logistics sector
- underpinned by a lower cost base, our national
network, a great team and strong customer
partnerships.
MOVE is a fantastic business, with a great heritage.
Across Freight, Warehousing, Specialist Haulage, Fuel
Delivery and International Shipping, we’ve got a lot to
be proud of. Our brand resonates and the ownership
by our team every day is what drives customers to
choose MOVE. Our team pride shows through in every
clean truck, tidy site and friendly face wearing the
MOVE brand.
I, along with my team, will be working hard to deliver
for our customers, our people and our shareholders
in FY26. Thank you for your support.

Freight & Fuel
Six months into my role as General
Manager of MOVE’s Freight & Fuel business,
I’m proud to say we’re making meaningful
progress. We’re in the midst of a genuine
turnaround — and while there’s still work to
do, the momentum is real.
Across the business, the team has put in significant
effort. Our initial focus has been on getting the
fundamentals right; improving operational efficiency,
increasing freight utilisation, and strengthening our
leadership capability. These efforts are now reflected
in our performance, with growth in revenue, earnings
and margins — despite ongoing market challenges.
This progress is no accident; it’s the result of a
collective commitment to revenue quality, margin
improvement and disciplined cost control.
We’ve also prioritised building resilience across the
organisation. That means recognising and investing
in internal talent, and fostering stronger connections
with our people throughout the network. This cultural
evolution is just as critical as our commercial gains.
At the core of everything we do is an unwavering
commitment to safety — it remains non-negotiable.
General Manager, Jeff Vincent
What we’ve delivered:
• We’ve stabilised the Freight business and are
deepening relationships with customers.
• Asset utilisation has improved, driven by better
planning, tighter execution, smarter deployment of
our fleet and asset rationalisation.
• We’re leveraging data more effectively, enabling
insight-led decision-making.
• We’ve streamlined our fleet, selling surplus and
aging vehicles, and are transitioning to a leased
model for greater agility and lower capital intensity.
• A full review of our network has been completed,
with a move to a new, modern Dunedin branch
scheduled for August 2025.
• Our Fuel business continues to perform strongly,
underpinned by a long-term foundational customer
partnership.
Looking ahead
With a stable cost base now in place, our focus is
shifting towards growth – particularly in revenue, gross
margin and market share. We’ve got a strong national
footprint and are committed to delivering enhanced
service and value for our customers.
Efficiency will continue to be a priority – driving
improvements in DIFOT, utilisation and cost discipline.
Optimising our network and reducing kilometres will be
key to lowering our carbon footprint and we continue
to monitor regulatory developments around emissions.
Market conditions remain tight and we expect to see
further sector consolidation. We remain focused on
running a safe, efficient and competitive operation
and have identified opportunities to leverage our
national scale and offering.

Warehousing
I stepped into the General Manager
role in February 2025 with a clear
understanding of the challenge ahead;
the business was underperforming, and
it was time to reset the foundations for
long-term success. The past few months
have involved significant work to stabilise
the operation and lay the groundwork for
a sustainable turnaround.
The operating environment remains tough. Excess
warehouse capacity across the market is putting
downward pressure on pricing, with customers
increasingly returning to ‘just in time’ models and
going to tender in search of lower rates. Storage
costs have dropped below pre-COVID levels, and
competition is intense.
Despite this, we’ve made progress in the second
half of the year which will deliver better financial
outcomes in FY26. A strong focus on customer
partnerships, service excellence, and productivity
has started to shift momentum in the right direction.
General Manager, Marc Blackburn
What we’ve delivered:
• Service performance has improved, with meaningful
gains in container management, and ‘Picked In Full,
Delivered on Time’ metrics.
• We retained key customers through an immediate
operational reset and a renewed commitment to
service, and have secured new business that will
commence in 1H26.
• The team and network have been rightsized to
better align with current workflow and volume levels,
including the planned exit of two sites which are
surplus to requirements, with the financial benefit to
be seen in FY26.
• We’ve embedded stronger processes and controls,
supported by improved reporting and better
operational visibility.
Looking ahead
We’re clear on our priority – making key sites work
harder and smarter. That means optimising capacity
and throughput by securing the right customer mix,
maintaining effective pricing and strengthening
our commercial discipline. It also means doubling
down on stronger customer partnerships, so we can
grow with the right customers and achieve mutually
beneficial commercial outcomes, not just
more volume.
We know the market remains competitive, but
we believe we can win on service – by delivering
consistently, making it easy for customers to do
business with us and standing out through reliability
and responsiveness. There’s still work to do, but we
have the plan and the team to deliver a step change
in results, which is clearly needed.

International
Specialist
The International business comprises the
Oceans trans-Tasman shipping service
as well as valuable freight forwarding and
shipping agency services through a number
of joint ventures and partnerships.
In 1Q25, we moved the Oceans service to a pilot of a time
charter model with a larger, faster vessel, the Brio Faith.
This has delivered increased schedule reliability and
capacity compared to the older vessel which we divested
during the year. Following a settling in period, Oceans has
delivered steady results, underpinned by foundational
customers which utilise the majority of capacity. Strong
interest has been registered outside of the existing
customer base, including a number of smaller customers
who are utilising excess capacity on sailings.
The Specialist haulage division has
continued to perform well through FY25,
underpinned by consistent delivery, deep
technical expertise and a strong team with
many years of experience in the field. As
General Manager, I’m proud of how the team
has maintained high standards of service
despite some major shifts in the market.
This year, we’ve faced a sharp contraction in the
construction sector, which has historically been a core
customer segment for us. Precast concrete volumes, in
particular, dropped to less than 20% of typical levels – a
clear signal of the broader market slowdown. In addition,
the lack of large-scale infrastructure projects has created
a gap in demand across much of the sector.
Despite these headwinds, our team has continued to
deliver complex, high-value work, particularly in the
energy sector. We’ve successfully moved transformers,
wind turbine components and other heavy assets onto
remote and difficult sites – work that few in the
industry can do, and an area where we remain
recognised experts.
General Manager, Anthony Browne
General Manager, Warwick Bell
Our wider International business is more sensitive to
the economic cycle and headwinds have put pressure
on demand, in addition to a softer Australia market.
Previously, we did quite a bit or work in the New Zealand
oil and gas sector and, while restrictions have eased,
we have yet to see a significant uptick in activity.
Looking forward
We anticipate smooth sailing for our Oceans business,
with three major customers on board and the Brio Faith
vessel operating well. Our priority is to run a reliable
shipping service that meets our customers’ needs. We
will continue to assess opportunities to build on this
offering.
Our international forwarding and agency businesses
are well positioned to take advantage of a recovering
economy and especially renewed investment in
infrastructure projects and the oil and gas sector.
While activity has been quiet for much of the year,
we’re now seeing it pick up again, with new projects
preparing to launch. Some project timelines were
pushed into the new financial year, but the overall
pipeline remains healthy and multi-year in scope.
We’ve also seen an encouraging increase in project
work out of the Pacific, which we expect to continue
building as regional demand for specialist transport
solutions grows.
Looking forward
Looking to FY26, the pipeline remains healthy. We
expect more activity in the infrastructure and energy
sectors, with several significant projects due to
commence – particularly in renewable energy and
power generation.
Roading projects, while still a key future opportunity,
are unlikely to ramp up until FY27. In the meantime,
we’ll continue to focus on high value work where our
capability creates a clear advantage – delivering
safely, reliably and in a way that builds long-term
customer trust.

Specialist and Machinery Movers
Our Specialist division is the muscle
behind MOVE’s ability to shift
New Zealand’s heaviest and most
complex freight. Whether it’s a wind
turbine blade, a concrete bridge beam,
or a plane, if it’s big – we can MOVE it.
The team operates through two expert arms;
Tranzcarr Heavy Haulage and Machinery Movers.
Machinery Movers is one of the largest carriers
of precast concrete panels in the country, and
both businesses are known for their project work
across the construction, infrastructure, and power
generation sectors. Some jobs are so large they
require two or three trucks working in sync!
Since joining MOVE in 2018, the Specialist division has
grown to become a leading provider in this space.
At the helm is Warwick Bell, who’s been with
Machinery Movers since 1996. He’s a past Chairman
and Life Member of the NZ Heavy Haulage Association
and a trusted voice in industry discussions with
government. Off the job, Warwick’s a lifelong surf
lifesaver, however, now spends a bit more time on the
golf course than in the inflatable boat.

Developing leadership across our business
At MOVE, we believe that everyone can be a leader.
Leadership is one of our core behaviours — it’s about
stepping up, being a champion for others, and having
a positive impact, regardless of role. This year we’ve
taken significant steps to strengthen it across all
levels of the business. Following insights from our
annual culture survey conducted in February/March,
we developed a refreshed Culture Action Plan with
leadership as a central pillar. Our goal is to drive a
mindset where ‘Leaders have real conversations and
coach for better commercial outcomes’.
Further to this, we’ve introduced leadership principles
that help define how we ‘show up’ every day.

We are identifying talent across the business and
encouraging every team member to take ownership,
delight our customers, and pursue continuous learning
and growth. This, combined with our newly introduced
development plan, will support how we go from good
to great in this space.
Our commitment to recognising leadership in action is
reflected in our monthly Star MOVErs awards, where we
celebrate individuals who consistently go above and
beyond.
Committed to safety
With our trucks on the roads across Aotearoa
New Zealand and our people working in warehouses,
depots and delivering to customers’ sites every day,
safety isn’t just a priority – it’s part of the job.
We are refreshing our Critical Risks Framework,
identifying the most significant risks in our operations,
ensuring effective and appropriate controls are in
place to monitor and mitigate potential harm. The
framework ensures our teams understand what these
risks are and why managing them is essential. The role
of strengthening our safety systems and ensuring our
people are equipped to prevent serious incidents sits
with every individual in our workforce, and is core to
our purpose.
MOVE is part of the ACC accredited employer
programme (AEP) – this means we are approved to
manage workplace injury claims and rehabilitation
for our team, rather than relying solely on ACC.
This allows us to provide faster, tailored support for
injured team members, helping them return to work
safely and efficiently. It also demonstrates to our
team, customers, suppliers and contractors that
we have robust and externally audited health and
safety systems. We were pleased to have met all
assessment areas and the new standard in our
recent audit.
Wellbeing is woven into the fabric of our culture. Our
Wellbeing Calendar features monthly initiatives that
celebrate and acknowledge the diverse needs of our
team. From Cultural Day and Driver Appreciation Day
to observances like Mental Health Awareness and
Physical Health Days, we create space for connection,
reflection and support. These initiatives are more
than events, they’re part of our ongoing commitment
to building a workplace where people feel valued,
supported and empowered to thrive.

Strength in systems and people
Originally from Tokoroa and now based in the Waikato
(with a stint in the Cook Islands along the way),
Julian’s journey spans over a decade in the service
industry. He’s moved from hands-on roles in courier
and warehousing to senior leadership positions
including Auckland Branch Manager for Fliway
Transport.
Since joining MOVE in March 2025, Julian has brought
a unique blend of operational insight, technical
expertise and people-focused leadership to the
Freight branch network. With a degree in software
development and a strong interest in systems and
process design, Julian brings both structure and
adaptability to his role. He oversees the national
branch network, ensuring capability, resourcing and
alignment across teams.
He’s driven not only by operational excellence, but
by a genuine commitment to building capability
— empowering others and creating value through
collaboration. He applies the same mindset to his
own growth, currently studying toward an MBA at the
University of Waikato, underpinned by the focus and
discipline gained from over 25 years in martial arts.
Julian describes MOVE as a ‘goldmine of knowledge,’
thanks to the diverse businesses that have come
together under its umbrella. The variety of experience
and personalities creates a rich environment for
learning and collaboration and, most importantly,
the teams are genuinely motivated to do a great job,
which makes MOVE a fantastic place to be.

Rekindling relationships, driving
regional growth
Andy’s story is one of return — to an industry, a region
and the kind of challenge he enjoys most.
Andy rejoined the logistics industry — and MOVE — in
April 2025, bringing with him a deep well of experience
and a passion for regional business. Based in New
Plymouth (his home since moving from Scotland 20
years ago), Andy holds dual responsibilities across the
Taranaki region; leading sales and managing branch
operations.
With a career that began in 2010 at Hooker Pacific
(now part of the MOVE group), Andy progressed
through several commercial roles, eventually
becoming GM Sales & Marketing for TIL Freight. After
five years on the customer side managing sales,
marketing and logistics for a timber re-manufacturing
company, Andy is now back where he thrives —
working in logistics, where no two days are the same.
In his current role, Andy is focused on rebuilding and
growing the local customer base, while also ensuring
the branch runs safely and efficiently. His commercial
acumen is paired with a strong belief in using
technology to streamline work and visualise data —
helping his tight-knit team stay agile and effective.
What Andy values most about MOVE is the deep
capability of the wider team: “There’s not much
the team hasn’t moved before so support for our
customers is only a call away.”
Leading with pride and purpose
Since joining MOVE in May 2023, Kerry has led one of
the company’s most complex and high-performing
operations — the 3PL warehouse at Lion Breweries’
Pride site in Auckland. With a team of 150 working
around the clock, she ensures the seamless flow of
some of New Zealand’s best-known beverages, from
receipt to delivery.
Her journey into logistics began in South Africa,
grounded in qualifications in Manufacturing
Management and Environmental Law. A standout
career moment came as Logistics Manager for
Coca-Cola Beverages South Africa, where she
achieved Gold Status in the CCBSA Logistics Awards
— recognition of her ability to drive excellence across
warehousing, transport and site operations.
Immigrating to New Zealand in 2019 meant starting
again. But with determination and a deep passion for
logistics, she quickly re-established herself — first with
Lion Breweries, then with MOVE. Today, she continues
to lift Pride’s performance, consistently exceeding KPIs
and delivering record service levels.
With over 30 years in FMCG logistics, she’s a results-
focused leader, skilled in people management,
continuous improvement and operational
transformation. She credits MOVE’s supportive culture
and strong leadership — particularly in 3PL — for
enabling her team’s success.
Outside of work, she’s a keen netball umpire and
proud supporter of the Silver Ferns.

Environment
At MOVE, we are committed to creating a lower carbon
future and a better environment for everyone. We
recognise the significant role the transport and logistics
sector must play in reducing emissions, and we’re
working collaboratively — with our customers, supply
chain partners and industry peers — to identify and
implement meaningful change.
While many of the biggest opportunities for impact
require long-term investment and sector-wide
transformation — such as the development of alternative
fuels, low-emission heavy vehicles suited to New Zealand
conditions and more robust multi-modal infrastructure —
we are focused on the actions we can take now.
We continue to optimise our operations through
technology, reducing empty loads and improving route
efficiency. Our ongoing fleet upgrades prioritise newer,
more fuel-efficient vehicles, and we are working with
customers to implement multi-modal transport
solutions, such as rail, which offers a significantly
lower carbon footprint.
We’re also committed to minimising waste and
making smarter use of resources across our business.
By taking immediate steps in areas we can control,
while contributing to longer-term industry change,
we believe logistics can lead the way toward a more
sustainable future.
FY25 marks MOVE’s second year of reporting under
the Aotearoa New Zealand climate change regime.
The focus on efficiency has resulted in a reduction of
our emissions. MOVE’s FY26 climate disclosures will be
published as a separate document by 31 October 2025
and made available at:
www.movelogistics.com/who-we-are/sustainability.

Our customers
and communities
Exceptional customer service is at the heart of everything
we do at MOVE. We build trust and loyalty by listening
closely, understanding our customers’ unique needs and
delivering tailored solutions that go beyond expectations.
Our approach is practical and customer-focused — we
strip away unnecessary extras and costs to deliver what
truly adds value.
This year, we expanded our sales team to better
support large customers and grow new business. Our
experienced team — including senior managers —
engages early in the tender process, ensuring a deep
understanding of customer needs. This proactive
approach has led to stronger brand recognition, more
tender invitations and new customer wins, even in a
challenging market.
Safeguarding customer data is another critical focus.
We’ve built secure systems that protect customer
information and deliver peace of mind, while
continuing to use technology to streamline deliveries,
reduce emissions and enhance satisfaction.
MOVE’s roots are in regional communities, and we
remain committed to making a positive local impact.
Our people have supported a range of local causes,
including rubbish clean-ups and tree planting.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
At MOVE Logistics Group Limited (MOVE) (the Company), we believe good corporate governance is essential to
protect the interests of investors and create and enhance value over the short and long term. We are committed
to conducting business in the right way: ethically, sustainably and in line with our legal and regulatory obligations.
The Board has adopted corporate policies and procedures that reflect best practice and apply the principles and
recommendations of the NZX Corporate Governance Code (the Code). MOVE’s corporate governance practices
in FY25 materially align with the Code dated 31 January 2025. The following pages summarise our corporate
governance practices and progress in FY25.
The information contained in this corporate governance statement has been prepared in accordance with NZX
Listing Rule 3.8.1(a). This governance statement is current as at 30 June 2025 and was approved by the Board on
28 August 2025.
1. ETHICAL STANDARDS
1.1 Code of Ethics
MOVE expects its Directors and employees to act with integrity and professionalism and undertake their duties
in the best interests of the Company. The Company’s Code of Ethics is available on the Company website and is
available to all team members.
The Code of Ethics is included in the New Employee Induction pack and all employees are required to attest that
they have reviewed and understand the scope of governance policies relevant to their role as a MOVE team
member. An ongoing training programme is being developed and will be included as part of future group-wide
learning series.
MOVE encourages employees to speak out if they have concerns about any area of the Company. The avenues
for doing so are detailed in the Company’s Whistleblower Policy which is on the Company website.
1.2 Securities Trading Policy
MOVE’s Securities Trading Policy and the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013, impose limitations and requirements
on Directors and employees dealing in the Company’s shares. These limitations prohibit dealing in shares while in
possession of inside information and impose requirements for seeking consent to trade on Directors and certain
team members. MOVE’s Securities Trading Policy is available in the Investor centre on MOVE’s website. Details of
directors’ share dealings are set out on page 91 of this report.
2. BOARD COMPOSITION AND PERFORMANCE
2.1 Board Charter
The roles and responsibilities of the Board are detailed in the Board Charter, which is reviewed at least every two
years and is available on the Company’s website. The Board’s primary objective is to enhance shareholder value
and protect the interests of other stakeholders by improving corporate performance and accountability.
The Board has delegated authority for day-to-day leadership and management of the business to the Group CEO,
who in turn has sub-delegated authority to the MOVE leadership team with specified financial and non-financial
limits. MOVE has a Delegations of Authority Policy, which is reviewed annually by the Board.
34
2.2 Nomination and Appointment of Directors
The number of elected Directors and the procedure for their retirement, nomination and election is set out in the
Company Constitution and NZX Listing Rules. Directors must retire and may stand for re-election by shareholders
at least every three years. A Director appointed by the Board since the previous annual meeting may hold office
only until the next annual meeting (but is then eligible for re-election at that meeting). Key information is provided
to shareholders when a director stands for election or re-election in the notice of meeting to assist their decision
whether or not to elect or re-elect a candidate.
All Directors are involved in decisions relating to Board composition including succession planning, considering
Shareholder nominees, making appointment recommendations to shareholders and, outside of shareholders
meetings, resolving to appoint directors. In making these decisions, the Board assesses candidates against a
number of factors including qualifications, capability, experience, judgement and skills, and the ability to work with
other Directors. Reference checks are carried out on all candidates.
Board decision making is supported by the Governance and Remuneration Committee. The Committee considers
the collective capability of the current Board and assesses that against the Company’s operational and strategic
requirements. This analysis then drives a focus on finding candidates who will best complement the current mix of
capabilities on the board.
Shareholders may also nominate candidates for election to the Board, in accordance with the constitution of the
Company and the NZX Listing Rules.
The Board uses a skills matrix and considers several factors including qualifications, experience and skills of
Directors when appointing new Directors or considering Board composition. The Board is confident that the current
Directors offer valuable and complementary skills, experience and expertise that are of value to the Company.

The Company has written agreements with each Director, establishing the terms of their appointment. The
Company also maintains a Directors’ and Officers’ liability insurance policy. This policy covers the Directors and
Officers so that any monetary loss suffered by them as a result of actions undertaken by them as Directors or
Officers is insured to specified limits (subject to legal requirements and/or restrictions).
The Company has also entered a Deed of Indemnity and Access with each Director. The terms of the indemnities
granted to Directors (as permitted by the MOVE constitution) are included in these Deeds together with
information access rights and agreed procedures for the conduct of legal claims.

ANNUAL REPORT 2025
2.4 Director Information
There has been a refresh of the Board over the past year. As at the date of this Annual Report, the MOVE Board
comprises two independent Directors and one non-executive Director.
DirectorCurrent RoleTerm
Julia RaueIndependent ChairAppointed May 2023
Lachlan JohnstoneIndependent DirectorAppointed March 2024

Lorraine WittenCeasedStepped down October 2024
Gregory KernCeasedStepped down September 2024
Grant DevonportCeasedStepped down October 2024
Mark NewmanCeasedStepped down October 2024
Profiles of Directors are available on the Company’s website and on page 32 of this Report.
While the Board believes that five Directors is appropriate for a company the size and scale of MOVE,
the recruitment of additional Directors has been paused to maintain a complete focus on the business
transformation. The Board is confident that the current Directors have the skills to oversee the transformation of
MOVE and that the reduced size and cost savings will benefit shareholders during this period.
In order for a Director to be independent, they must not be an executive of MOVE and must have no
disqualifying relationships. Independence is determined by the Board, having regard to the factors described
in Recommendation 2.4 of the Code. The Board has determined that both Julia Raue and Lachlan Johnstone
are independent and have no disqualifying relationships. Gregory Whitham was appointed in March 2024. He
is also a substantial shareholder in MOVE, holding approx. 7% of issued capital. The Board considers this to be a
disqualifying relationship and has determined that he is a non-independent Director.
Directors are required to notify MOVE of any interests they have that could impact an assessment of their
independence or their ability to act in the best interests of MOVE.
MOVE has processes in place to manage any conflicts of interest with Directors who are interested in a matter.
Directors’ interests are disclosed on page 90 to 91 of the Annual Report.
2.5 Diversity
Diversity at MOVE refers to characteristics of individuals and includes factors such as gender, marital status,
religious beliefs, colour, race, ethnic or national origin, disability, age, political views, employment status, family
status or sexual orientation. Diversity encompasses the way MOVE’s people differ in terms of their education, life
experience, job function, work experience, personality, location and career responsibilities. The key aspects being
sought at MOVE are diversity of thought and skills, as these attributes are most likely to assist MOVE in delivering
better outcomes for its stakeholders.
MOVE is committed to equal employment opportunities and treating all individuals fairly and with respect. MOVE
recognises that everyone has individual differences which can be leveraged to create stronger teams that will
ultimately drive stronger business performance.
MOVE’s approach to diversity is outlined in the Diversity Policy, which is available on the Company’s website.
Key areas of focus are:
• Recruitment and retention of a diverse workforce;
• Supportive working environment;
• People development; and
• Recognition and reward based on merit.
As at 30 June 2025, females represent 25% (FY24: 27%) of Directors and Officers of the Company (an officer is a
person who is concerned or takes part in the management of the company business and reports directly to the
Board or CEO). Females represent 22% (FY24: 21%) of all employees of the Company.

The Board is satisfied with the Company’s performance with respect to the Diversity Policy. The Board has not set
measurable objectives under the Policy for achieving diversity, as the Board considers diversity outcomes can be
achieved without measurable objectives.
2.6 Director Training and Education
Directors are encouraged to undertake appropriate training and education to ensure they remain current on how
to best perform their duties. In addition, management provide regular updates on relevant industry and Company
issues, including briefings from senior executives.
All Directors have access to executives to discuss issues or obtain information on specific areas in relation to
matters to be discussed at Board meetings, or other areas as they consider appropriate. The Board Committees
and Directors, subject to the approval of the Board Chair, have the right to seek independent professional advice
at the Company’s expense, to enable them to carry out their responsibilities.
2.7 Board Performance and Review
The Board monitors its own performance and will, from time to time, commission an external review to assess
the performance of individual Directors and the Board’s effectiveness (including the effectiveness of Board
Committees). An external review was last conducted and presented to the Board in June 2022. This has assisted
the Board in identifying the skills and experience desired of new Directors and to plan longer term Board
succession in a manner that ensures the Board remains fresh but also provides MOVE with governance continuity.
2.8 Independent Board Majority
Two of MOVE’s three Directors are considered by the Board to be independent.
2.9 Independent Chair
MOVE’s Chair, Julia Raue, is an independent Director as recommended by the Code and was elected by the
Directors to become the Chair in 2024.
2.10 Separation of the role of Chair and CEO
The Board supports the separation of the roles of Chair and CEO. In addition to MOVE’s CEO not being the Chair, the
CEO is also not a Director of MOVE.
3. BOARD COMMITTEES
The Board delegates a number of its responsibilities to Committees to assist in the execution of the Board’s
responsibilities. Given the current, smaller size of the Board, all Directors are involved in Committee matters.
The Board, as a whole, retains ultimate responsibility for the functions of its Committees and determines their
responsibilities.
The Committees meet as required and have terms of reference (Charters), which are approved and reviewed by
the Board.
Committee meetings are scheduled to coordinate with the Board meeting cycle. Each Committee reports to the
Board at the subsequent Board meeting and makes recommendations for consideration as appropriate.
Minutes of each Committee meeting are available to all members of the Board, who are all entitled to attend
any Committee meeting. Each Committee is empowered to seek any information it requires from employees in
pursuing its duties and to obtain independent legal or other professional advice.
The membership and performance of each Committee is reviewed annually.

Attendance at Board and Committee Meetings for the year ended 30 June 2025 can be viewed on page 87.
3.1 Risk Assurance and Audit Committee
The Board has a Risk Assurance and Audit Committee (RAAC) which acts as a delegate of the Board. The purpose
of the RAAC is to assist the Board in:
• fulfilling its responsibilities for MOVE Logistics’ financial statements and external financial reporting;
• ensuring that the ability and independence of the external auditors to carry out their statutory audit role is
not impaired, or could reasonably be perceived to be impaired;
• ensuring appropriate accounting policies and internal controls are established and maintained;
• ensuring the effective and efficient management of all business risks.
The Committee comprises all three Board members, who are all non-executive Directors of MOVE, with two of
those being independent Directors. The Chair of the Committee, Lachlan Johnstone, is not the Chair of the Board,
and is independent. Two members have significant financial expertise.
The role and responsibilities of the Committee are detailed in the Risk Assurance and Audit Committee Charter
which is available on MOVE’s website.
3.2 Employee attendance at Audit Committee meetings
Employee (including management) attendance at all Committee meetings is by invitation only.
3.3 and 3.4 Governance and Remuneration Committee
The purpose of the Governance and Remuneration Committee is to:
• Identify and recommend individuals to the Board for nomination as members of the Board and its
committees; and
• Oversee and regulate compensation and organisation matters affecting MOVE, including:
- remuneration and benefits policies;
- performance and remuneration of MOVE’s Directors and senior executives;
- management development;
- succession planning for the Chief Executive Officer and direct reports to the Chief Executive Officer; and
- major organisational changes providing a more focused and streamlined process where Board
approval would otherwise be required.
38
All members of the Board are members of the Committee. Management may only attend meetings at the
invitation of the Committee.
The Governance and Remuneration Committee Charter is available on MOVE’s website.
3.5 Other Board Committees
Special purpose Committees may be formed to review and monitor specific projects with senior management
or to investigate potential transactions or strategies that the Company may wish to pursue. These Committees
tend to be informal and temporary in nature and would be reported on in this Statement or under continuous
disclosure if their work leads to a complete proposal that is material to MOVE.
3.6 Control Transaction Protocols
In the case of a control transaction, MOVE would engage expert legal and financial advisors to provide advice
on procedure. An Independent Committee would be formed to oversee disclosure, the transaction response and
the commissioning of any required independent advisor reports to be provided to shareholders. Formal control
transaction protocols have been developed and formally adopted by the Board.
4. REPORTING AND DISCLOSURE
4.1 Disclosure Policy
MOVE is committed to keeping investors and the market informed of all material information about the Company and
its performance in a timely manner. In addition to all information required by law, the Company also seeks to provide
sufficient meaningful information to ensure stakeholders and investors are well informed. The Company’s Market
Disclosure Policy sets out the principles and requirements of this commitment to timely and balanced disclosures. The
policy is available on MOVE’s website.
4.2 Access to Key Governance Policies
MOVE takes a continuous improvement approach to corporate governance. Governance policies are reviewed and
approved by the Board on a regular basis in line with best practice.
Key governance policies and charters can be viewed on the MOVE website at www.movelogistics.com/investors/
governance.
4.3 Financial Reporting
The Board is responsible for ensuring that the financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of
the Company and have been prepared using appropriate accounting policies, consistently applied and supported by
reasonable judgements, estimates; and for ensuring all relevant financial reporting and accounting standards have been
followed.
The Risk Assurance and Audit Committee oversees the quality and integrity of external financial reporting, including the
accuracy, completeness, balance and timeliness of financial statements. It reviews MOVE’s full and half year financial
statements and makes recommendations to the Board concerning accounting policies, areas of judgement, compliance
with accounting standards, stock exchange and legal requirements, and the results of the external audit.
For the financial year ended 30 June 2025, the Directors believe that proper accounting records have been kept which
enable, with reasonable accuracy, the determination of the financial position of the Company and facilitate compliance
of the financial statements with the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013 and other applicable law. All matters required to
be addressed, and for which the Committee has responsibility, were addressed during the reporting period.
Senior management has confirmed in writing that MOVE Group’s external financial reports present a true and fair view in
all material aspects.
4.4 Non-Financial Reporting
MOVE’s strategic pathways lay out the framework for a sustainable future for the Company. MOVE is actively seeking to
have a positive impact on its people, communities and the environment. The Company believes this will have a beneficial
impact on the business, thereby creating long term value for shareholders.
MOVE periodically updates shareholders and the market on its strategy, non-financial objectives and its progress against
these objectives, in shareholder reports and newsletters and at other investor events during the year including investor
presentations and the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting.
The Company has a Sustainability Policy which is available on the Company website. MOVE reports under the Aotearoa
39
ANNUAL REPORT 2025
New Zealand Climate Standards. MOVE’s Climate-related Disclosures will be published as a separate document by
31 October 2025 and will be available at https://www.movelogistics.com/who-we-are/sustainability.
MOVE is committed to using its resources responsibly and will look for opportunities to reduce any negative
environmental risk or impact from business operations, products and services. MOVE is committed to providing fair and
responsible products and services.
Health and safety and other non-financial metrics are reported in the Annual Report and other investor communications
annually.
5. REMUNERATION
Considering and recommending to the Board on matters relating to the remuneration of Directors and senior
executives is a key responsibility of the Governance and Remuneration Committee.
The Board promotes the alignment of the interests of the Directors, the CEO and management with the long-term
interests of shareholders. Remuneration policies and structures are reviewed regularly to ensure remuneration
of management and Directors is fair and reasonable in a competitive market for the skills, knowledge and
experience required by MOVE. External advice is also sought to ensure remuneration is benchmarked to the market
for senior management positions and Board positions.
Details of Director and executive remuneration and benefits in FY25 are provided on pages 87 to 89.
5.1 Directors’ Remuneration
MOVE is currently updating its remuneration policy to include directors. MOVE seeks to offer remuneration that
attracts quality directors, with the right skills and experience and appropriately compensates them for their input
and time.
MOVE’s Governance and Remuneration Committee is responsible for overseeing and regulating compensation
matters, including remuneration of Directors. The Committee Charter is available on MOVE’s website.
Shareholders fix the total remuneration available for Directors. Approval is sought for any increase in the pool
available to pay Directors’ fees, and any recommendations to shareholders regarding Director remuneration are
provided for approval in a transparent manner. If independent advice is sought by the Board, it will be disclosed to
shareholders as part of the approval process.
The last increase in the total pool fee for Director remuneration was approved by shareholders in 2017 at $750,000.
The Board Charter provides that no retirement allowance is payable to a Director.
There is no formal requirement for Directors to hold shares.
Directors’ share dealings and interests in the company are detailed on pages 90 to 91.
Remuneration per annum for each Board role is as follows:
Chair$140,000
Non-executive Director$75,000
Chair of Risk Assurance and Audit Committee$10,000
Chair Governance and Remuneration Committee$10,000
5.2 Executive Remuneration
MOVE’s executive remuneration is designed to attract, retain and motivate high calibre people and create a
performance-focused culture. Executive remuneration comprises a fixed component and may include short
and/or long-term incentives. The Board has reviewed executive remuneration with the assistance of external
independent advice. The Company has written agreements with the CEO and executive team members setting
out the terms of their employment.
5.3 CEO Remuneration
The remuneration of the Chief Executive Officer comprises a fixed component commensurate with experience and
industry benchmarks, a short term incentive payable in cash on achievement of key performance indicators and
40
an equity based long term incentive focussed on retention. Details of CEO remuneration in FY25 is provided on
page 88 to 89.
6. RISK MANAGEMENT
6.1 Risk Management Framework
MOVE has robust assurance, risk and compliance frameworks to ensure risk is identified, assessed, categorised and
ranked across the business. The board has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the group’s risk
management framework, with more detailed oversight by the Risk Assurance and Audit Committee (RAAC).
The RAAC ensures MOVE has appropriate risk management policies in place and provides the Board with assurance that
key risks relevant to MOVE have been appropriately identified, managed and reported to the Board. The RAAC regularly
reports to the Board on the operation of MOVE’s risk management and internal control processes. It is also responsible
for overseeing and monitoring that MOVE’s management implements and operates adequate risk assurance, internal
controls and audit systems within MOVE. The Board as a whole is responsible for monitoring corporate risk assessment
processes and this is not delegated to a subcommittee.
The Board carries out a review of the effectiveness of the Group’s risk management and internal control systems at least
annually. MOVE’s risk management policy provides clarity on roles and responsibilities to minimise the impact of financial,
operational and sustainability risk on its business.
MOVE’s current governance and risk management structure is:
Foundational governance and risk documents are regularly reviewed and updated to ensure MOVE continues to
find the best ways of working to achieve its business goals while remaining within risk appetite and adhering to its
regulatory obligations.
MOVE’s risk management framework has been created to ensure there is clear ownership and delegation of
responsibility for the management and oversight of risks and to support the appropriate flow of information
throughout the Group.
MOVE assesses its risks by understanding the likelihood of occurrence and the potential consequences using the
following categories:
Current key risks are:
• Economy - Heightened economic or market uncertainty could impair long-term planning affecting revenue
optimisation and growth.
• Financial risk - The risk that MOVE will not be able to meet its debt repayment obligations when they fall due.
• Climate change and sustainability - Physical climate impacts and related policy and/or market changes may
disrupt our operations or impact demand for our services.
• Execution of strategy - Poor reputation; loss of revenue; loss of large customers; loss of business, lossmaking
contracts.
• Cyber-security - A cyber-attack could result in lost integrity or access to information, loss of control systems or a
significant data privacy breach.
• Health & Safety - Events that could adversely affect employee health and wellbeing.

6.2 Health and Safety
Staying safe, keeping others safe, and being responsible are fundamental to what MOVE is as an organisation.
Operating the business in this way helps deliver on MOVE’s goal of “No Harm to People, the Environment or Assets”.
Paying close attention to safety, wellbeing, sustainability, ethics and integrity go hand in hand with that goal.
The Board is committed to ensuring a high quality, safe and healthy environment for all of MOVE’s people, visitors,
partners and those in the community.
People safety is a key priority, one of MOVE’s core values and an essential component across the business. MOVE is
committed to developing, improving and reinforcing its safety culture, including by improving leadership capacity,
simplifying tools and systems and requiring ‘good catch’ reporting.
Safety performance is tracked to identify patterns to help prevent incidents. “Health, Safety and Sustainability”
results and reported data from each Business Unit and at a Group level, are reviewed at each National Health
& Safety Committee meeting. The Committee is an executive group that meets every second month for the
purposes of health and safety management across the Group. In addition, the Board receives monthly reports on
the health and safety performance across the Group, including performance against plan, good catch reporting,
progress with safety related initiatives and reviewing lead and lag indicators of performance.
MOVE continues to be a part of the Accident Compensation Corporation’s Accredited Employer Program, recently
passing its annual audit. This signals that MOVE continues to achieve a clear history of established systems,
processes and procedures which function actively in MOVE’s workplace.
The Company’s injury frequency rates provide a lag indicator of performance, with increased transparency and
reporting introduced during the year.
20242025
Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate (LTIFR)21.57 *25.44
Total Recordable Injury Frequency Rate (TRIFR)38.6238.54

7. AUDITORS
7.1 External audit
For the year ended 30 June 2025, PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) was the external auditor of MOVE Group Limited.
PwC was first appointed as auditor in 2017. The most recent Audit Partner rotation occurred in 2021, with the next
rotation due no later than 2026.
The RAAC monitors the relationship and communications with the external auditors, and monitors ongoing
independence, quality and performance. The RAAC also monitors audit partner rotation.
The RAAC pre-approves any non-audit work undertaken by PwC. No fees were paid for non-audit services
provided by PwC in the FY25 year. If any non-audit services are undertaken, these would be in accordance with the
company’s External Auditor Independence Policy and assessed by the RAAC as not affecting PwC’s independence.
The fees paid for audit services in FY25 are identified on page 94 of the Annual Report.
PwC has provided the MOVE Board with written confirmation that, in their view, they were able to operate
independently during the year.
7.2 Attendance at Annual Meeting
The external auditors attend the Annual Shareholders Meeting and are available to answer questions from
shareholders relevant to the audit.
7.3 Internal Audit
The internal audit function is managed inhouse and provides assurance over the effectiveness of MOVE’s risk
management, control, and governance processes. MOVE has an Internal Audit Framework and Annual Plan which
is overseen by the RAAC. The reports from the Internal Audits are presented to the RAAC which then monitors
performance against the audit recommendations.
MOVE will continue to develop and further refine the options in the Internal Audit function to meet the future needs
of the business.

8. SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS AND RELATIONS
8.1 Investor website
Easy access to financial, operational and governance information is available through the Investor Centre on
company’s website at www.movelogistics.com/investors.
8.2 Engagement with shareholders
The Board is committed to open and regular dialogue and engagement with shareholders. MOVE has developed an
investor relations programme which includes regular dialogue with investors, analysts and investor meetings, and
earnings announcements. The programme is designed to provide shareholders and other market participants the
opportunity to obtain information, express views and ask questions.
Shareholders are actively encouraged to attend the Annual Meeting and may raise matters for discussion at this
event. Shareholders are also able to vote by proxy ahead of meetings without having to physically attend those
meetings. In 2024, MOVE held a hybrid meeting to allow shareholders to participate in person or online.
Shareholders are encouraged to communicate with the Company and its share registry electronically.
Approximately 67% of MOVE’s shareholders have opted in for email communications.
In addition to shareholders, MOVE has a wide range of stakeholders and maintains open channels of
communication for all audiences in New Zealand and Australia, including brokers, the investing community and the
New Zealand Shareholders’ Association, as well as its employees, suppliers and customers.
8.3 Voting on major decisions
In accordance with the NZX Listing Rules, MOVE refers major decisions which may change the essential nature of
MOVE’s business to shareholders for approval. All voting by shareholders is undertaken by poll, upholding the ‘one
share, one vote’ requirement of the NZX Listing Rules.
8.4 Equity offers
MOVE did not undertake any capital raising during FY25. Should MOVE consider raising additional capital, MOVE will
structure the offer having regard to likely levels of shareholder participation and optimising and enhancing the
ability to maximise the level of capital raised. Subject to these factors the Board will look to give all shareholders a
proportionate opportunity to participate in any capital raising.
8.5 Notice of meeting
MOVE aims to provide at least 20 working days of the notice of the Annual Shareholders Meeting, which is posted on
MOVE’s website, announced to the NZX and ASX markets and sent to shareholders prior to the meeting each year.
Twelve days’ notice was provided in 2024. This was due to a requirement for that notice of meeting to be reviewed
by NZ RegCo (and have a non-objection letter issued in respect of it) before it could be sent to shareholders.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1. Reporting Entity
The core operations of MOVe Logistics Group Limited (“MOVe Logistics” or the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (collectively
“the Group”) are in the New Zealand logistics sector. These include general transport, bulk liquids, heavy haulage,
shipping, warehousing and distribution, freight forwarding and storage.
The Company is incorporated and domiciled in New Zealand, registered under the Companies Act 1993 and is a FMC
Reporting Entity under part 7 of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013. The Company is dual listed with its primary listing
of ordinary shares quoted in New Zealand on the NZX Main Board, and a secondary listing in Australia as a foreign Exempt
Entity on the Australian securities exchange (ASX).
The registered office of the Company is at 24-30 Paraite Road, Bell Block, New Plymouth, New Zealand. The consolidated
financial statements of the Company as at, and for the year ended 30 June 2025, comprise the Company and its
subsidiaries (refer note 16.1), together referred to as the “Group”.
1.2. Basis of Preparation
These financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with NZ IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting
estimates. It also requires Management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting
policies. The areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements are
disclosed in note 4.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013
and the Companies Act 1993 and comply with New Zealand equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards
(“NZ IFRS”).
The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are selected and applied in a
manner which ensures that the resulting financial information satisfies the concepts of relevance and reliability, thereby
ensuring that the substance of the underlying transaction and other events is reported. These policies have been
consistently applied to all the periods presented, unless otherwise stated. To ensure consistency with the current period,
comparable figures have been restated where appropriate.
1.3. Going Concern
The Directors have prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis having formed a view that the Group will
be able to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.
As at 30 June 2025, the Group recorded an after tax loss attributable to owners of $15.6m and had a working capital deficit
of $27.9m.
In the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2024, the Directors concluded that there were material
uncertainties related to going concern. These uncertainties related to the Group’s ability to achieve its turnaround plan
and forecasts going forward, to enable it to operate in compliance with its financing terms.
The Directors’ analysis of all relevant material uncertainties identified in June 2024 has been completed and it is
concluded that these matters no longer represent material uncertainties. This is based on the following factors:
• An improved economic environment with a gross margin increase of 4.1 percentage points year on year in FY25
driven by broad cost out and efficiency programme;
• Right sizing of the network, fleet and assets completed including two underutilised site exits;
• Completion of the turnaround plan resulting in an improvement in the financial performance following the
implementation of cost reduction initiatives in FY25;
• Turnaround specialist Paul Millward permanently appointed as CEO and a strengthened leadership team focused
on delivery of gross margin growth, further cost disciplines and improved process efficiency; An improved sales
pipeline for the year ahead reflecting ongoing focus of winning in market strategy;Continuation of the Oceans
shipping pilot supported by recently renewed contracts from foundational customers; and
• Renewal of debt facilities and sufficient headroom in funding agreements to enable growth.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
51
ANNUAL REPORT 2025
Working with the existing banking partner ANZ, the Group secured an extension of the ANZ facility term to August 2026,
with financing terms acceptable to the Group. Note 12 provides details on the updated facilities. With the updated
facilities and in conjunction with prudent working capital management, the Directors are comfortable that sufficient
headroom, cash and debt facilities are available to meet its obligations going forward and to manage the Groups
liquidity position appropriately.
In order to assist with the compliance with financing arrangements, the Group entered into a facility with Pacific Invoice
Finance New Zealand Limited on 25th September 2024 This facility has allowed the Group to reduce its borrowings from
the ANZ, while retaining some flexibility as to the level of funding from Pacific Invoice Financing New Zealand Limited. As
at 30 June 2025 the Group held a balance of $13m in this facility. The total limit of this facility is $25m and therefore the
Group has sufficient headroom to support its future growth.
The Group notes the impact the current lease liability of $30.8m on the working capital deficit and considers that there
are assets available to meet the Group’s Liabilities as they fall due. Given the liability profile, aspects of the balances
presented will be funded by ongoing future activities of the business.
Based on current FY26 revenue projections and the Group’s reduced cost base, it is expected that the Group will generate
positive cashflows for the foreseeable future with adequate headroom to mitigate potential downside risks.
Conclusion
Having made due enquiry, the Directors conclude that, to the best of their knowledge after making enquiries and having
regard to circumstances which are considered likely to affect the Group, there are no material uncertainties related to
the Group being a going concern, and are of the view that these financial statements are appropriately prepared on a
going concern basis.
1.4. Statement of Compliance
The Group is a for-profit entity. Its financial statements have been prepared in accordance with, and comply with, New
Zealand Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (NZ GAAP). They comply with New Zealand Equivalents to International
Financial Reporting Standards and other applicable Financial Reporting Standards and Authoritive Notices, as appropriate
for for-profit entities. The financial statements comply with International Financial Reporting Accounting Standards (IFRS
Accounting standards).
2. SUMMARY OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
2.1. Consolidation
a. Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to,
or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity, and has the ability to affect those returns through its
power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred
to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.
The Group uses the acquisition method of accounting to account for business combinations. The consideration
transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair value of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred and the
equity interest issued by the Group. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting
from a contingent consideration arrangement and the elimination of any balances arising between the Group and the
acquiree.
If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date carrying value of the acquirer’s previously
held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date. Any gain or loss arising from
remeasurement is recognised in profit or loss.
Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities
assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. On an acquisition
by acquisition basis, the Group recognises any non-controlling interest in the acquisition either at fair value or at the non-
controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquiree’s net assets.
The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree, and the
acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the Group’s share of the
identifiable net assets acquired, is recorded as goodwill.
Contingent consideration is classified either as equity or a financial liability. Amounts classified as a financial liability are
subsequently re-measured to fair value with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss.
Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between Group companies are eliminated.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
52
Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the transferred asset.
Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted
by the Group.
Non-controlling interests in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the consolidated Statement of
Profit or Loss & Other Comprehensive Income, Statement of Changes in Equity and Balance Sheet respectively.
b. Assets held for sale
Non-current assets and disposal groups classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair
value less costs to sell. Non-current assets and disposal groups are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount is
expected to be recovered through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. This condition is regarded as
met only when the sale is highly probable and the asset (or disposal group) is available for immediate sale in its present
condition and the sale of the asset (or disposal group) is expected to be completed within one year from the date of
classification. Impairment losses on initial classification as held for sale and subsequent gain or loss on remeasurement
is recognised in profit or loss. Once classified as held for sale, intangible assets and property, plant and equipment are no
longer amortised or depreciated.
2.2. Foreign Currency Translation
a. Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary
economic environment in which the entity operates (‘the functional currency’). The financial statements are presented
in New Zealand Dollars (rounded to thousands), which is the functional and the presentation currency of all companies
in the Group except MOVe Oceans Singapore PTE Limited, MOVE Oceans Limited and TNL Australia Pty Limited, whose
functional currencies are United States Dollars, United States Dollars and Australian Dollars respectively.
b. Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the
dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and
from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are
recognised in profit or loss.
2.3. New Accounting Standards & Interpretations
The accounting policies applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are consistent with prior year.
The Group has adopted the following new accounting pronouncements that are applicable:
• Amendments to NZ IAS 1 Non current Liabilities with covenants - clarifies that only covenants with which an entity
must comply on or before reporting date will affect a liabilities classification as current or non current.
• Amendment to FRS44 Disclosure of Fees for Audit Firms Services - entities are required to disclose the fees
incurred for services received from their audit or review firm, and the description of each service using the
specified categories.
• IFRIC for IFRS 8 in relation to operating segment disclosures and the need to disclose any material revenue or
expenses by segment.
Other than those noted above there are no new accounting standards or interpretations during the year that have
impacted on the preparation of the financial statements.
2.4. Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted
The new standards and interpretations that are issued but not yet effective as at the date of reporting are disclosed
below. The Group intends to adopt these new and amended standards and interpretations if applicable when they
become effective.
IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements
This standard becomes effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027. IFRS 18 introduces new
requirements on presentation within the Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income, including specified
totals and subtotals. It also requires disclosure of management defined performance measures and includes new
requirements for aggregation and disaggregation of financial information on the basis of the identified ‘roles’ of the
primary financial statements and notes. The Group is yet to assess the impact of this standard.

3. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT
The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise Invoice finance facilities, bank loans and overdrafts, cash, trade
creditors and accruals and trade debtors. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to raise and provide working
capital for the Group’s operations.
This note explains the Group’s exposure to financial risks and how these risks affect the Group’s future financial
performance.

Aging analysis & credit ratings
Market risk - interest rateLong term borrowing at variable ratesSensitivity analysis
Liquidity riskBorrowings and other liabilitiesRolling cash flow forecast
The Group’s risk management is carried out by a central treasury department (Group Treasury) under policies approved
by the Board of Directors. Group Treasury identifies, evaluates and manages financial risks in close co-operation with the
Group’s operating units. The Board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as policies covering
specific areas, such as foreign exchange risk, funding risk, interest rate risk, credit risk and use of derivative financial
instruments and non-derivative financial instruments.
3.1. Credit Risk Management
In the normal course of business the Group incurs credit risk from trade debtors and transactions with financial
institutions. The Group has a credit policy that it uses to manage this risk. As part of this policy limits on exposures with
counter-parties have been set and approved by the Board of Directors and are monitored on a regular basis.
The Group has no significant concentrations of credit risk. The Group does not require any collateral or security to support
financial instruments due to the quality of the financial institutions and trade debtors dealt with. The Group normally gives
30 or 60 days credit on its trade receivables. At 30 June the Group’s credit risk exposure is equal to the carrying value of
its financial assets.

a. Impaired trade receivables
Individual receivables which are known to be uncollectible are written off by reducing the carrying amount directly. The
other receivables are assessed collectively under the simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses. For these
receivables the estimated impairment losses are recognised in a separate provision for impairment. The Group considers
that there is evidence of impairment if any of the following indicators are present:
• significant financial difficulties of the debtor
• probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganisation, and
• default or delinquency in payments.
Receivables for which an impairment provision was recognised are written off against the provision when there is no
expectation of recovering additional cash.
Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss within other expenses. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously
written off are credited against other expenses.
Movements in the provision for impairment of trade receivables that are assessed for impairment collectively are

ANNUAL REPORT 2025
Critical Estimates and Judgements
a. Credit loss provision
To measure expected credit losses, trade receivables have been grouped and reviewed on the basis of the number of
days past due. The credit loss provision has been calculated by considering the impact of the following characteristics:
• The baseline loss rate takes into account the average write-off history of the Group over a two-year period as a
predictor of future conditions and applies an increasing expected credit loss estimate by trade receivables aging
profile.
• Specific credit loss provisions are made based on any specific customer collection issues that are identified.
Collections and payments from our customers are continuously monitored and a credit loss provision is maintained
to cover any specific customer credit losses anticipated.
The Group has performed an assessment of credit risk on its customer base taking into consideration the factors below:
• profile of the customer, i.e. corporate or individual customers
• region the customer is based in
• industry the customer operates within
• size and nature of the customer
• and, the Group’s understanding of and experience with the customer
As a result of this assessment, the Group has assessed its baseline provision to $1,635,000 (2024: $1,530,000), to reflect the
estimated financial impact of its assessment of the credit risk.
3.2. Interest Rate Risk
The Group’s main interest rate risk arises from long term borrowing with variable rates which exposes the Group to cash
flow interest rate risk. The Group adopts a policy of ensuring that where appropriate its exposure to changes in interest
rates on borrowings is on a fixed rate basis by entering into interest rate swaps.
The Group currently has no interest rate swaps in place.
The Group does not hedge account so all market adjustments are recognised in the Statement of Profit or Loss & Other
Comprehensive Income.
Sensitivity analysis
The effect of a 1% (which is a reasonably possible shift) increase or decrease in the floating interest rates for the Group
would be a decrease/increase in profit and equity of $216,000 (2024: $267,000).
3.3. Liquidity Risk
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and the availability of funding through an
adequate amount of committed credit facilities. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, the Group
maintains flexibility in funding through having flexible funding lines available to them. Management monitors rolling
forecasts of the Group’s liquidity reserve, which comprises its undrawn borrowing facility and cash and cash equivalents
(note 12.1) on the basis of expected cash flows.
The Group had access to the following undrawn borrowing facilities at the end of the reporting period:

3.4. Capital Management
The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern, so that they
can continue to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimal structure
to reduce the cost of capital.
In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders,
return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.
The Group monitors capital on the basis of the gearing ratio. The Group’s gearing ratio at 30 June is as follows:

4. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS
The Group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition,
seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material
adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below. Other
critical accounting estimates will be disclosed in the relevant notes.
a. Estimated impairment of goodwill
The Group tests annually whether goodwill has suffered any impairment. The recoverable amounts of cash-generating
units have been determined based on the higher of value-in-use and fair value less costs of disposal calculations. These
calculations require the use of estimates (refer note 13.3).
5. RECONCILIATION TO GAAP MEASURE
The Group results are prepared in accordance with New Zealand Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (“GAAP”) and
comply with both International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and the New Zealand equivalents to International
Financial Reporting Standards (“NZ IFRS”).
These financial statements include non-GAAP financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with IFRS. The
non-GAAP financial measures used in this presentation are as follows:
• Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure) represents profit or loss before income taxes from continuing operations
(a GAAP measure), excluding interest income, interest expense, depreciation and amortisation, restructuring &
settlement costs and asset impairments (non operating expenses) as reported in the financial statements.
• Adjusted EBT (a non-GAAP measure) represents profit or loss before income taxes from continuing operations (a
GAAP measure), excluding restructuring & settlement costs and asset impairments (non operating expenses) as
reported in the financial statements.
The Group believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to readers to assist in the understanding
of the financial performance and position of the Group as they are used internally to evaluate the performance of
business units and to establish operational goals. They should not be viewed in isolation, nor considered as a substitute
for measures reported in accordance with IFRS. Non-GAAP measures as reported by the Group may not be comparable
to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies.

6. SEGMENT INFORMATION
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting to the Chief Operating Decision
Maker (CODM). The CODM is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments.
Following a change in the strategic direction and leadership structure of the Group there has been a change to the
reportable segments during the reporting period. The reporting segments have been revised to align with the direction
and management of these segments. Comparative information below has been restated to reflect the revised segments.
Accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as the Group’s accounting policies as described in note 2.
The Group has made the decision that the twelve operating segments that form part of the reporting to the Group CEO
can be aggregated into five reporting segments. Reportable segments have been determined by having regard to the
nature of the services, the processes the various business units undertake to service customers, the allocation of capital,
the type of customers serviced, and the nature of the distribution channels.
In addition to GAAP measures, the Group CEO also uses non-GAAP measures (Adjusted EBITDA and EBT) to assess the
commercial performance of the segments. The revised reportable operating segments have been determined as:
INTERNATIONAL
This segment includes international freight forwarding and shipping agency services across a broad range of industries.
SPECIALIST
This segment provides transport and lifting solutions for oversized and large items.
FREIGHT & FUEL
This segment provides nationwide general freight transport services with regional strength. It is able to transport a wide
range of freight types including delivery of bulk liquid goods.
WAREHOUSING
This segment includes warehouse and supply chain capability.
CORPORATE
This is not an operating segment but is disclosed separately as part of the segment information. It includes our corporate
services function.

Interest income and expense are not allocated to segments, as this type of activity is driven by the central treasury
function, which manages the cash position of the Group.
Sales between segments are eliminated on consolidation. The amounts provided to the CODM with respect to segment
revenue are measured in a manner consistent with that of the financial statements.
Revenues of approximately $51,000,000 (2024: $52,000,000) are derived from a single external customer which exceeds
10% or more of the entity’s revenue. These revenues are attributed to the Freight and Fuel segment.

7. REVENUE & OTHER SOURCES OF INCOME
Revenue comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of services in the ordinary
course of the Group’s activities. Revenue is shown net of GST, rebates and after eliminating sales within the Group.
a. Sale of services
Freight Services
The Group performs transportation services. Revenue is recognised over the time of delivery, being from the time of
acceptance of the goods to delivery to the final destination.
Warehousing Services
The logistics function provides warehousing and storage services. Revenue from providing these services is recognised in
the accounting period in which the services are rendered. Some contracts include multiple deliverables. However, these
are seperately identifiable and are accounted for as separate performance obligations.
Trading Services
The Group performs freight forwarding, trans tasman shipping and agency services. Revenue is recognised over the
time of delivery, being from the time of acceptance of the job to completion of the shipment. Revenue is recognised for
agency and freight forwarding on a net basis after disbursements as the Group are acting as an agent for the customer.
For fixed priced contracts, revenue is recognised based on the actual service provided to the end of the reporting period
as a proportion of the total services to be provided. This is because the customer receives and uses the benefits of the
service simultaneously.
Customers are invoiced on a daily, weekly or monthly basis and consideration is payable when invoiced. There are no
significant financing arrangements for any of the Group’s revenue streams. The Group does not offer any refunds or
warranties.

b. Interest income
Interest income is recognised on a time-proportion basis using the effective interest method.
c. Dividend income
Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established.
d. Lease income
Lease income from operating leases where the Group is a lessor is recognised as rental income on a straight-line basis
over the lease term.
e. Financing component
The Group does not expect to have any contracts where the period between the transfer of the promised service to the
customer and payment by the customer exceeds one year. As a consequence, the Group does not adjust any of the
transaction prices for the time value of money.

f. Contract liability
The Group recognises a contract liability (deferred revenue) when the Group has recognised consideration for
performance obligations yet to be fulfilled. The opening balance has been recognised in revenue in the current year. In
the current year, there was $439,000 (2024: $341,000) of revenue recognised relating to contract liabilities at the prior
year end. The average timing of satisfaction of performance obligation in relation to the payment of the contract liability
is between 1 and 5 days. Management expects that 100% of the revenue (transaction price) allocated to unsatisfied
performance obligations as of 30 June 2025 will be recognised as revenue during the next reporting period ($532,000).
g. Other income
Included within other income is insurance recovery income of $927,000 (2024: $2,700,000) which was received in relation
to a cargo claim on the Brio Faith during the year.

8.1. Employee Costs
a. Superannuation benefits
The Group operates a defined contribution superannuation scheme. The scheme is funded through employee and Group
contributions to a trustee-administered fund. The Group has no further payment obligations once contributions have
been paid. Contributions are recognised as an employee benefits expense when they are due.
MOV
e Freight Limited has a historic defined contribution company superannuation scheme that has been operating for a
number of years. The Company has contribution rates from 4% - 6%.
Members contribute a minimum of 4% of their salary/wage and can go as high as 15%. The Company contributions are
vested to the member at the rate of 20% per year of service with the Company i.e. 100% after five years of service.
b. Other employee benefits
Liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits and accumulating sick leave are expected to be
settled within 12 months. They are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.
c. Long service leave
The liabilities for long service leave and annual leave are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months after the
end of the period in which the employees render the related service. They are therefore measured at the present value
of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the end of the reporting
period. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods
of service. Expected future payments are discounted using market yields at the end of the reporting period of high-quality
corporate bonds with terms and currencies that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash outflows. Re-
measurement as a result of experience adjustments and changes in actuarial assumptions are recognised in profit or
loss.
d. Profit-sharing and bonus plans
The Group recognises a liability and an expense for bonuses and profit-sharing based on a formula that takes into
consideration the profit attributable to the Company’s shareholders after certain adjustments. The Group recognises a
provision where contractually obliged or where there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation.

9. INCOME TAX EXPENSE
The tax expense for the year comprised current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the profit or loss component of the
Statement of Profit or Loss & Other Comprehensive Income except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly
in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised in other comprehensive
income or equity respectively.
The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance
sheet date in the countries where the Company and its subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income.

Dividends to the company shareholders are recognised in the Group’s financial statements in the period in which the
dividends are declared. Intercompany dividends are eliminated on consolidation.
No dividends have been declared by the company or recognised in the current year (2024: nil).
11. EARNINGS PER SHARE
The Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) data for its ordinary shares. Basic EPS is computed based
on the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed based on
the weighted average number of ordinary shares plus the effect of dilutive potential ordinary shares outstanding during
the period. At balance date, the effects of the potential ordinary shares were antidilutive. The potential ordinary shares
include the share options.

12. FINANCIAL ASSETS AND FINANCIAL LIABILITIES
The Group classifies its financial assets at amortised cost. The classification depends on the purpose for which the
financial assets are held. Management determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.
Financial assets are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the reporting
date which are classified as non-current assets. The Group’s financial assets comprise ‘Trade and other receivables’
and ‘Cash and cash equivalents’ in the Balance Sheet. Financial assets that are stated at amortised cost are reviewed
individually at balance date to determine whether there is objective evidence of impairment. Any impairment losses are
recognised in the consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss and Other Comprehensive Income.
This note provides information about the Group’s financial instruments, including:
• An overview of all financial instruments held by the Group
• Specific information about each type of financial instrument
• Information about determining the fair value of the instruments, including judgements and estimations of
uncertainty involved.

ANNUAL REPORT 2025
The Group’s exposure to various risks associated with the financial instruments is discussed in note 3. The maximum
exposure to credit risk at the end of the reporting period is the carrying amount of each class of financial assets
mentioned above, other than for trade and other receivables where the maximum credit risk is the balance before
impairment, being $34,747,000 (2024: $41,520,000).
12.1. Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held on call with banks, other short-term highly liquid
investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within
borrowings in current liabilities on the Balance Sheet (refer note 12.5).

12.2. Trade and Other Receivables
Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the
effective interest method less provision for expected credit loss.
The Group assesses on a forward looking basis the expected credit losses associated with trade receivables carried at
amortised cost. The Group applies the simplified approach permitted by NZ IFRS 9, which requires expected lifetime losses
to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables. Impairment of trade receivables is recognised in profit or loss.
Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganisation,
and default or delinquency in payments are considered indicators that the trade receivable has been impaired. The
amount of the provision is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of the estimated
future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate.

Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at
amortised cost using the effective interest method. Any borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group
has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date.
Borrowing costs are expensed as incurred, unless they relate to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying
asset in which case the borrowing costs are capitalised.
The ANZ Bank Limited (ANZ) facilities include an overdraft facility of $3m ($2.5m from Oct 2025), a term loan of $8.2m
and bank guarantee’s totalling $9.9m (refer note 17). The ANZ has a General Security agreement over the assets of the
100% owned subsidaries within the Group excluding the trade receivables balance held by the debtor invoice finance
arrangement below.
The Pacific Invoice Finance New Zealand (PIFNZ) debtor invoice finance facility has a limit of $25m. This is secured against
the Trade Receivables of the relevant entities within the arrangement via a Deed of Priority with ANZ. All risk and rewards
remain with MOVE in relation to these receivables.

ANNUAL REPORT 2025
During period to 30 June 2025 the Group is required to comply with a number of ANZ financial covenants. On 27th
February 2025 the Group reached agreement with ANZ to extend the facilities to August 2026 and to vary the terms and
covenants as below:
• EBITDA actual > agreed percentage targets to forecast on a YTD basis
• Fixed charge cover ratio > 1.0x at September 2025, 1.1x at December 2025 and 1.25x at March 2026 and thereafter
• Net capital expenditure restricted to 110% of approved budget in FY25
• Guarantor coverage Assets of >82.5%
• Guarantor coverage EBITDA of >90%
• Total ANZ exposure not greater than 50% of Property Plant and Equipment value
• PIFNZ Drawn receivables funding value less than 85% of Approved Debtors to April 2025 returning to 80% post April
2025
• Quarterly Repayments of $500K in March 2025 and then $1.25m June 2025 and thereafter
On 26th June 2025 these terms were amended as below:
• EBITDA actual > agreed targets to forecast on a YTD basis for FY25
• Fixed charge cover ratio > 1.0x at September 2025 & December 2025, 1.15x at March 2026 and 1.25x at 30 June 2026
and thereafter
• Net capital expenditure restricted to 110% of approved budget in FY26
• Guarantor coverage Assets of >82.5%
• Guarantor coverage EBITDA of >85%
• Total ANZ exposure not greater than 50% of Property Plant and Equipment value
• PIFNZ Drawn receivables funding value less than 85% of Approved Debtors to February 2026 returning to 80% post
February 2026
• Quarterly Repayments of $1.25m in December 2025 and thereafter
During the year to 30 June 2025 these were fully complied with.
The Group is forecasting compliance with the amended financial covenants for at least 12 months from the date of
signing the financial statements. Accordingly, and in line with note 1.3 the consolidated financial statements are prepared
on a going concern basis.
13. NON-FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
This note provides information about the Group’s non-financial assets and liabilities, including specific information about
each type of non-financial asset and non-financial liability:
• Property, plant and equipment (note 13.1)
• ROU assets and lease liabilities (note 13.2)
• Intangible assets (note 13.3)
• Deferred tax balances (note 13.4)
• Provisions for other liabilities and charges (note 13.5)
Impairment of non-financial assets
Goodwill, indefinite-life intangible assets and intangible assets that are not yet ready for use are tested annually for
impairment. Assets that are subject to depreciation and amortisation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is
the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to dispose and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets
are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash-generating units). Non-
financial assets, other than goodwill, that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at
each reporting date.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

13.1. Property, Plant and Equipment
All property, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less depreciation. Historical cost includes expenditure that is
directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only
when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item
can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance
are charged to profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Depreciation on assets is calculated using the diminishing value (DV) or straight-line (SL) method.

The assets’ useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each reporting date.
An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is
greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised
within ‘Gains on disposal of assets’ in the Statement of Profit or Loss & Other Comprehensive Income.

13.2. Right Of Use (ROU) Assets and Lease Liabilities
Assets and liabilities arising from a lease are initially measured on a present value basis. Lease liabilities include the net
present value of the following lease payments:
• fixed payments, less any lease incentives receivable and
• variable lease payments that are based on an index or a rate.
The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be determined,
the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that the lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds
necessary to obtain an asset of similar value in a similar economic environment with similar terms and conditions.
Payments associated with short-term leases and leases of low-value assets are recognised on a straight-line basis as an
expense in profit or loss. Short-term leases are leases with a lease term of 12 months or less. Low-value assets comprise IT
equipment and small items of office furniture.
Right of use assets are measured at the amount equal to the lease liability, adjusted by the amount of any lease
incentives received or restoration costs estimated. These assets are subsequently depreciated using the
straight-line method.
Lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the lessee’s
incremental borrowing rate. The weighted average lessee’s incremental borrowing rate applied to the lease liabilities is
4.87% (2024: 4.93%).
The Group uses a build up approach that starts with a risk free interest rate adjusted to reflect changes in credit risk for
leases held by the Group and then makes specific adjustments for lease terms.

13.3. Intangible Assets
a. Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the
acquiree, and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the
Group’s share of the identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill on acquisitions of subsidiaries is included in ‘Intangible
assets’ in the Balance Sheet. Goodwill on acquisitions of associates is included in ‘Investments in associates’ in the
Balance Sheet and is tested for impairment as part of the overall balance. Separately recognised goodwill is tested
annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Impairment losses on goodwill are not
reversed. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold.
Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units for the purpose of impairment testing. The allocation is made to those
cash-generating units or groups of cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the business combination on
which the goodwill arose.
b. Computer software and Software-as-a-service (SaaS) arrangements
Acquired computer software is capitalised on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and bring to use the specific
software. These costs are amortised, using the diminishing value method at a rate of 48% and recognised in the profit or
loss. Costs associated with maintaining computer software programmes are recognised as an expense when incurred.
SaaS arrangements are service contracts providing the Company with the right to access the cloud provider’s
application software over the contract period. Costs incurred to configure or customise, and the ongoing fees to obtain
access to the cloud provider’s application software, are recognised as operating expenses when the services are
received.
Some of these costs incurred are for the development of software code that enhances or modifies, or creates additional
capability to, existing on-premise systems and meets the definition of and recognition criteria for an intangible asset.
These costs are recognised as intangible software assets and amortised over the useful life of the software on a straight-
line basis. The useful lives of these assets are reviewed at least at the end of each financial year, and any change
accounted for prospectively as a change in accounting estimate.
c. Customer contracts and lists
Acquired customer contracts and lists are recognised at their fair value at the date of acquisition and are subsequently
amortised on a straight-line basis over the appropriate contract term. Amortisation expense is recognised in the profit or
loss.

The Group tests goodwill for impairment using the higher of value in use calculations with cash flow projections based
on a five-year period and the fair value less costs to sell. Management has prepared an upside, downside and base
scenario for each material CGU. Each of these include the Board approved cash flow projections with cashflows beyond
this extrapolated using the assumptions. The final value in use calculations for each CGU apply an assessed probability
weighting to the three scenarios. Management has concluded that there are no impairments for any of the CGUs at 30
June 2025.

13.4. Deferred Income Tax
Deferred income tax is provided in full, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases
of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, deferred income
tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business
combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax
is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date and
are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
Deferred income tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available
against which the temporary differences can be utilised.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets
against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the
same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle
the balances on a net basis.
Temporary differences arise from the following:

The total unrecognised deferred tax asset as at 30 June 2025 is $15.4m net (2024: $10.8m). The unrecognised deferred tax
asset is comprised of tax losses of $11.8m and net timing differences $3.6m.

amount can be reliably estimated.
Provisions are measured at the present value of Management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the

20. SHARE BASED PAYMENTS
The Group has a long term incentive plan for selected employees. The plans participants are members of the Executive
team. Participation is at the Boards discretion. The plan is designed to provide long term incentives for executives
promoting retention and reward while aligning to deliver long term positive transformation for the Company and in turn
shareholder returns. On 28th February 2025 1,860,000 Restricted Share Units (RSUs) were granted with a vesting date of
30 June 2028 (unless employment ceases before). The ordinary shares issued upon vesting will rank equally with existing
shares.
Share-based payment reserve
The reserve is used to record the accumulated value of the plan which has been recognised in the Statement of Profit
or Loss & Other Comprehensive Income. The long-term incentive plan is an equity settled-share-based payment which
provides eligible employees with the opportunity to acquire shares in the Group. The fair value of shares granted is
recognised as an employee benefit expense with a corresponding increase in equity. The fair value is measured at grant
date and recognised over the vesting period. The fair value was determined based on market price of the company
shares at grant date adjusted for non vesting conditions.
Amounts accumulated in the employee share scheme reserve are transferred to share capital on redemption of the
redeemable shares or to retained earnings where they are forfeited. At the end of each reporting period the Group
revises its estimate of the number of redeemable shares that are expected to vest based on vesting conditions. It
recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in the income statement, with a corresponding
adjustment to the employee share scheme reserve.
Set out below are summaries of options granted under the plan:

ANNUAL REPORT 2025
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of
the financial statements of the current year. T hese matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the
financial statements as a whole, and in formin g our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on
these matters.
Description of the key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter
Revenue recognition
As disclosed in note 7 of the consolidated
financial statements, the Group has recognised
$286.3m of revenue during the year ended
30 June 2025 (2024: $293.9m).
NZ IFRS 15 requires revenue to be recognised
when a performance obligation is met.
Due to the different entities within the Group
and the variety of services they provide, there
are multiple criteria used to distingui
sh when a
performance obligation has been met, and the
associated revenue can be recognized.
Revenue recognition is considered a key audit
matter due to the significance of the balance to
the consolidated financial statements and the
judgement that may be required when
determining that performance obligations have
been met.
Our procedures included the following:
● understanding the relevant processes and controls over
recognition of revenue for material revenue streams
within the Group;
● testing a sample of revenue transactions to supporting
documentation to ensure appropriate recognition of the
transactions when the performance obligation was
fulfilled;
● testing a sample of revenue transactions before and after
ye
ar end to test for revenue transactions that may have
been inappropriately included or excluded from the
financial statements;
● analysing credit notes issued in the month following
period end for evidence of material post year-end
reversal of revenues recognised in the financial
statements; and
● testing a sample of journals which did not follow the
process understood and considering if they had
been
recognised appropriately.
We considered the appropriateness of disclosures in note 7
of the financial statements to ensure that they are compliant
with the requirements of the relevant accounting standards.
Funding arrangements
As disclosed in notes 1.3 and 12.5 of the
financial statements, the Group entered into a
financing arrangement with Pacific Invoice
Finance New Zealand (PIFNZ) on 25 September
2024. This facility allows the Group to draw down
cash to the value of 85% of approved receivables
up to $25m. The balance of the facility at 30 June
2025 is $13.5m.
NZ IFRS 9 requires an assessment as to
whether
the approved receivables should continue to be
recognised as an asset and NZ IAS 1 requires
consideration regarding the classification of the
payable as a current or non-current liability.
The financial statements reflect the full value of
the receivables remaining recognised as an
asset and the facility recognised as a non-current
liability based upon the expiry date of the facility.
This
is considered a key audit matter due to the
size of the balance and complexity regarding
initial recognition and subsequent
measurement of the arrangement in
accordance with NZ IFRS.
Our procedures included the following:
● understanding the relevant processes and controls
regarding the accounting for the initial and subsequent
measurement of the arrangement.
● assessing the accounting on initial recognition by:
₋ obtaining the agreement and subsequent variations
with PIFNZ; and
₋ assessing the key terms in the agreement to
understand whether derecognition of the receivables
w
as appropriate in accordance with NZ IFRS 9.
● assessing the accounting for subsequent measurement
by:
₋ obtaining confirmation from PIFNZ of the balance of
the facility at 30 June 2025 and the interest and fees
charged for the year then ended; and
₋ considering the expiry terms of the facility, and
assessing if the Group has an unconditional right to
defer settlement for a period greater than twe
lve
months from 30 June 2025.
● considering the appropriateness of disclosures in note
12.5 of the financial statements to ensure that they are
compliant with the requirements of the relevant
accounting standards.

Finance New Zealand (PIFNZ) on 25 September
2024. This
facility allows the Group to draw down
cash to the value of 85% of approved receivables
up to $25m. The balance of the facility at 30 June
2025 is $13.5m.
NZ IFRS 9 requires an assessment as to whethe
r
the approved receivables should continue to be
recognised as an asset and NZ IAS 1 requires
consideration regarding the classification of the
payable as a current or non-current liability.
The financial statements reflect the full value of
the receivables remaining recognised as an
asset and the facility recognised as a non-current
liability based upon the expiry date of the facility.
This is considered a key audit matter due to the
size of the balance and complexity regarding
initial recognition and subsequent
measurement of the arrangement in
accordance with NZ IFRS.
Our
procedures included the following:
● understanding the relevant processes and controls
regarding the accounting for the initial and subsequent
measurement
of the arrangement.
● assessing the accounting on initial recognition by:
₋ obtaining the agreement and subsequent variations
with PIFNZ; and
₋ assessing the key terms in the agreement to
understand whether derecognition of the receivables
was appropriate in accordance with NZ IFRS 9.
● assessing the accounting for subsequent measurement
by:
₋ obtaining confirmation from PIFNZ of the balance of
t
he facility at 30 June 2025 and the interest and fees
charged for the year then ended; and
₋ considering the expiry terms of the facility, and
assessing if the Group has an unconditional right to
defer settlement for a period greater than twelve
months from 30 June 2025.
● considering the appropriateness of disclosures in note
12.5 of the financial statements to ensure that they are
compliant with
the requirements of the relevant
accounting standards.

Our audit approach
Overview
As part of designing our audit, we determin ed materiality and assessed the risks of material misstatement in the
financial statements. I n particular, we considered where management made subjective judgements; for example, in
respect of significant accounting estimates that involved makin g assumptions and considerin g future events that
ar e inherently uncertain. As in al
l of our audits, we also addressed the risk of management over ride of internal
controls, including among other matters, consideration of whether there was evidence of bias that represented a
risk of material misstatement due to fraud.
Materiality
The scope of our audit was influenced by our application of materiality. An audit is designed to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial
statements are free from material misstatement. Misstatements may arise
due to fraud or error . T hey 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 the financial statements.
Based on our professional judgement, we determin ed certain quantitative thresholds for materiality, including t
he
over all Group materiality for the financial statements as a whole as set out above. T hese, together with qualitative
considerations, helped us to determin e the scope of our audit, the nature, timin g and extent of our audit
procedures, and to evaluate the effect of misstatements, both individually and in the aggregate, on the financial
statements as a whole.
How w e tailored our group audit scope
We tailored the scope of our audit in order to perform sufficient work to enable us to provide an opinion on the
financial statements as a whole, takin g into account the structure of the Group, the accounting processes and
controls, and the industries in which the Group operates.
Other information
The Directors are responsible for the other information. T he other information comprises the information included
in the Annual Report, but does not include the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of
audit opinion or assurance conclusion thereon.
PwC
Over all group materiality: $1,430,000, which represents approximately 0.5% of
revenue.
We chose revenue as the benchmar k because, in our v iew, it is the benchmar k
against which the performance of the Group is most commonly measured by
users, and is a generally accepted benchmar k.
● Full scope audits were performed for 4 of 16 entities in the Group based on
their financial significance;
● Specified audit procedures and analytical review procedures were performed
on the remaining entities.
As reported above, we have two key audit matters, being:
● Revenue recognition
● Funding arrangements

ANNUAL REPORT 2025
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 in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have
performed on the other information that we obtained prior to the date of this auditor’s report, 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.
Responsibilities of the Directors for the financial statements
The Directors are responsible, on behalf of the Company, for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial
statements in accordance with NZ IFRS and IFRS Accounting Standards, and for such internal control as the
Directors 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, the Directors are responsible 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 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 ISAs (NZ) and ISAs 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.

Reporting Board’s website at:
