1H21 Review (post AASB 16)

  • Revenue of $234.4m (down 6.6% on pcp) due to:

  • targeted and successful focus on shifting business mix towards higher margin products, partially offset by new business and combined with rise and fall resin input price reductions and the divestment and exit of noncore businesses

  • Profit after tax is $6.2m (down $0.2m on pcp) due to:

  • $2.0m of significant items after tax (1H20: nil) for budgeted costs predominantly relating to the Chester Hill project, additional operating costs associated with the Kewdale fire and restructuring costs

  • Increased PBT* to $11.7m (up $2.9m on pcp) due to:

  • PBT margin* expansion of 150 bps from improved business mix, the completion of several operational initiatives to streamline costs, increased corporate costs and a decrease in finance costs

  • Net debt* of $54.2m before AASB 16 (up $8.1m on pcp) following capital investment of $8.3m, payment of a final dividend of $3.2m and an increase in working capital of $9.3m

  • Interim dividend declared of 0.25 cents per share fully franked

Flexibles Packaging

Manufacturing and distribution of bespoke flexible packaging solutions tailored for the industrial, food and beverage, health and agriculture sectors throughout Australia and New Zealand

1H21 Review (post AASB 16)

  • The Flexibles business has performed strongly compared to pcp with:

– Revenue down 11.2%; and
– PBT up 9.9%.

The exit of less profitable business continued which reduced revenue. The exit from less
profitable and non-core business is now complete, with revenue rebased for future growth

New business of $9.7m annualised was won in 1H21, which contributed $2.3m revenue to
1H21 and will convert progressively through 2H21 and early FY22

Contracted rise and fall provisions relating to resin input costs resulted in a revenue drop of
$0.9m but had no material impact on earnings

Revenue reduced from the divestment of the forage business ($5.1m), exit of Canadian
operations ($2.7m), and a decline in global textiles demand combined with a stronger AUD
reducing cotton export sales ($2.5m)

PBT
and PBT margin continued to improve due to the repositioning of the portfolio and
the delivery of profit improvement initiatives
• A key priority for Flexibles in 2H21 and FY22 will be organic top line growth supported by:
– an increasingly strong pipeline, with opportunities driven by customer and consumer
demand for innovative and bespoke packaging; and
– the sales restructure, completed in 1H20, which focused on key account management
and new business development, driving an increased level of sales effectiveness

Industrial Packaging

A one stop shop for primary, secondary and tertiary packaging with deep expertise in food, beverage, agriculture, retail and health sectors

1H21 Review (post AASB 16)

  • The Industrial business has performed strongly compared to pcp with: – Revenue down 7.1%; and

  • PBT* up 61.1%.

  • Revenues were lower than prior year but exceeded internal expectations with Industrial volumes strengthening progressively throughout 1H21 despite supply chain and sourcing disruptions due to the COVID-19 pandemic

  • Consistent with our group strategy, Management refocused the product range to higher margin market sectors where we know we can win and grow

  • The Cosmic Packaging business was divested at the end of 1H20, resulting in lower revenue for 1H21 ($0.9m)

  • PBT margins* improved as a result of the refocusing of the product range, and from the completion of several operational initiatives to streamline costs and to support future growth

Rigid Packaging

A solution-oriented business that focusses on partnering with the small to medium customers seeking technical and business support with tailored, personalised product and supply chain services

1H21 Review (post AASB 16)

  • The Rigid business has performed strongly compared to pcp with:

  • Revenue up 17.1%; and

  • PBT* up 19.0%.

  • The COVID-19 pandemic continued to provide sales volume and margin opportunities, particularly for triggers and pumps for hand sanitiser and other cleaning and hygiene products

  • Improvements in the lawn and garden space were driven by more favourable weather conditions than prior year and growth also reflected a partial recovery in the food service sector. New business conversion in specialty closures in the FMCG space also contributed to revenue and earnings growth.
