Chair’s Address
Slide 6 – Chair’s Address
Slide 7 - A Strong Year for Delegat Group
The year ended 30 June 2022 was another strong year for the Group, on our journey to building a leading global Super Premium wine Company. Delegat achieved global case sales of 3,360,000 in the 2022 year, 6% higher than the prior year.
The Group generated an Operating Net Profit After Tax of $58.1 million, down 11% on the prior year. The decline relative to the prior year was due to the higher cost of goods associated with the impact of the lower yielding 2021 vintage as well as significant inflationary cost increases both locally and globally.
Strong cash flows from operation of $65.6 million were delivered.
Accordingly, your Board, considered it appropriate to maintain the dividend distribution in line with last year and declared a fully imputed dividend of 20 cents per share. Your Board remains cognisant of both dividends to reward shareholders and the need for reinvestment for long-term growth.

Slide 8 - Celebrating 75 Years
This year we are celebrating our 75 year anniversary. Delegat has grown from its original 10 acre vineyard in West Auckland to embrace three brands, 20 premier vineyards and four-state-of-the-art wineries in three of the world’s greatest wine regions - Marlborough, Hawke’s Bay and Australia’s Barossa Valley.

In the Annual Report, Jim Delegat penned a poignant letter celebrating our 75 year milestone. In the letter, he paid special tribute to our fellow ‘builders’ of the industry; the families, the individuals and companies that have held fast to a vision, done the hard work in viticultural pioneering, shown a real dedication to wine excellence, and built global market through thick and thin.

As one of the companies that have led the emergence of the New Zealand wine industry on the global stage, we can take pride in Delegat’s 22 fold growth over the last two decades and the exponential growth of Oyster Bay to become the No.3 Premium wine brand in the world. A glass of our Super Premium wine, is enjoyed somewhere around the world every minute of every day.

This journey has been made possible by the passion, determination and skills of our global team who have built this company and established Delegat as a global leader in Super Premium wine.

Slide 9 – Delegat Values
I would like to make a special acknowledgement to Jim and Rose Delegat. They are true visionaries who have illuminated our pathway to success. Jim and Rose embody the values that form the foundation of our supportive high performance culture; Aim High, Mastery and Winning Together. These enduring core values will remain at the heart of our future growth and success.

Slide 10 - Key Success Factors
Our strategic goal is to build a leading global Super Premium wine company.
To do this, our global team strives to excel on four key success factors;
•Establish and grow leading global Super Premium wine brands that resonate with consumers around the world
•Build global distribution for our brands, establishing enduring mutually beneficial relationships with our customers and distributors
•Develop vineyard supply in three of the world’s great wine regions and optimise supply chain efficiency
•Grow and make the world’s most sought after wine styles with an uncompromising dedication to Super Premium quality

These key success factors are mutually reinforcing, so to achieve extraordinary results, our global teams strive to excel on all four key success factors simultaneously.

Slide 11 – Board Succession
Over the past year we undertaken a Board renewal process balancing depth of experience within our business and ensuring that we have benefit from a broader range of governance experience and competencies. The Board now comprises seven Directors including the Managing Director and six Non-Executive Directors of whom three are Independent Directors.

The Board was delighted to welcome Steven Carden as Managing Director in January. Steven’s prior career includes management consulting with McKinsey & Co. in New York, General Manager of PGG Wrightson Australia and CEO of Pāmu. Steven’s strategic thinking capability, expertise in growing international businesses and focus on creating an environment where people can achieve their potential is an ideal match for Delegat Group as we embark on the next stage of our journey to build a leading global Super Premium wine company.

As noted during the introductions, the Group’s three Independent Directors are Dr Alan Jackson, Phillipa Muir (Chair of the Remuneration Committee) and Gordon MacLeod (Chair of the Audit and Risk Committee). When Steven joined as Managing Director, long serving Independent Director Alan Jackson took on the role of Independent Chair to support the management transition process. On behalf of the Board I would like to take this opportunity to thank Alan Jackson for his exemplary leadership as Chair during the period of management transition and his ongoing commitment to the Group. Gordon MacLeod was appointed as an Independent Director in February, increasing the number of Independent Directors to three. Gordon is an experienced business leader, and brings significant knowledge regarding international growth, finance and businesses with strong Founder cultures.

Rose Delegat, Jim Delegat and myself are Non-Executive Directors who are not deemed Independent. In September 2022, after the completion of the management transition process, I was appointed Non-Executive Chair and Jim Delegat transitioned from Executive Director to Non-Executive Director. Jim remains deeply committed to Delegat Group and continues to provide valuable input into the strategic direction of the Group. My association with Delegat commenced in 1999 when I joined as Manager Planning and Financial Analysis and includes serving as Managing Director from 2014 to 2018 and as Acting Managing Director for ten months until early 2022. It is a privilege to work for shareholders and stakeholders as company Chair.

With these changes, your company is well placed with a Managing Director and Board with the expertise and experience to build on our success to date, grow sustainable earnings and deliver for all of our stakeholders. As per the meeting agenda, both Steven Carden and Gordon MacLeod are seeking re-election at today’s Annual Shareholder meeting with the full support of the Board.

Slide 12 - Chair Concluding Remarks
The results achieved in 2022 are testament to the strength of the Delegat business model and the calibre of our people. Your Board would like to take this opportunity to thank our people. Our global team has once again shown great resolve and resilience to deliver success in a challenging year. The workload and operating environment endured this year have asked a great deal of our teams around the world and they have responded magnificently. Our people have built a unique culture founded on our values of Aim High, Mastery and Winning together. The commitment and talent of our global team underpins our success and positions the Group well to deliver on its growth plans.

Steve Carden, the Group’s Managing Director, will now provide a more fulsome report on the 2022 year and the Group’s future growth plans.


Managing Director’s Address
Slide 13 – Managing Director’s Address
Good afternoon everyone. It is great to be here with you today.
Since joining the company in January of this year, I have had the privilege of meeting the entire Delegat team both here in NZ and in our offshore markets. What is obvious throughout the business is the pride Delegat staff in what the company is achieving. Equally obvious is the deep commitment to the values of Delegat – Aim High, Mastery, and Winning Together – values embodied in so much of what the company does every day around the world. I consider it a privilege to work with this great team and for one of New Zealand’s most well-known global brands.
Turning to the recent performance of the business. As noted by the Chair, in 2022 the Group achieved a record global case sales of 3,360,000 cases and Operating Net Profit After Tax of $58.1 million in a year impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic and associated supply chain disruption and inflationary cost pressures.

Slide 14 – Global Sales Performance
The Group achieved global case sales of 3,360,000 cases, which is 6% higher than the previous year. Were it not for the difficulty in getting products to the market due to ongoing global port congestion and constrained shipping line capacity, global case sales would have been higher. This is an excellent result and testament to the strength of our brands, the relationships with our distributor partners and the effectiveness of our global sales team.

As was the case last year, the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic continued to have a tangible impact on market conditions. Consumers continued to gravitate towards established brands that they know and trust such as Oyster Bay. Social distancing requirements and ongoing lockdowns in some of our major markets continued to reduce sales in the on-premise channel, although we saw a strong recovery in this channel throughout the second half of the year. Our in-market sales teams remain a strength of the business and they have engaged productively with customers and distributors throughout the year.

The Group's sales continue to be well diversified by market with 48% in North America, 32% in United Kingdom, Ireland and Europe, and 20% in the Australia, New Zealand and Asia Pacific region.
Slide 15 – Sales Performance: North America
The North American market remains a key focus for growth. Sales in North America grew by 8% to a record 1,608,000 cases, despite sales volumes again being hampered by reduced shipping line capacity and port congestion. Through the pandemic, consumers continued to 'trade-up' to better quality wines while engaging in new purchasing behaviours, driving more at-home-consumption and online sales. Further, US consumers’ demand for premium imported wines such as Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc also continued to increase. Wine in the premium and above price bands has increased its share of the wine market significantly since 2015 and is predicted to continue growing to 2025. Imported wine now accounts for 25% of all wine consumed in the US, and New Zealand wine is the fastest growing source of imported wine.
Building on the underlying popularity of New Zealand wine in the US, the Group’s success continues to focus on ensuring that the Oyster Bay brand achieves strong distribution growth while also lifting rate of sale per point of distribution. Oyster Bay is now the category leading New Zealand wine brand in the US market and Oyster Bay Sauvignon Blanc is a top five white wine by value. The US remains a major growth market opportunity for the Group.

In Canada, Oyster Bay continues to be a category leading wine brand across its range. This success is underpinned by a strong distribution base and high rate of sale with Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Pinot Grigio leading growth in each of the major provinces. Canada continues to be a major growth opportunity in the years ahead.

Slide 16 – Sales Performance: United Kingdom, Ireland and Europe
Despite supply chain constraints, sales in the United Kingdom, Ireland and Europe region were 1% lower than the prior year at 1,060,000 cases. This result is particularly impressive considering the introduction of a price increase in the market during the year. Such a robust performance reflects the power of the Group’s brands and distribution platform in a region where demand for quality New Zealand wine remains strong.

Oyster Bay has maintained its super premium category leadership position in the United Kingdom. Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Merlot continue to be category leading wines above £8 in their individual varietal categories irrespective of origin. Barossa Valley Estate sales recovered from last year as consumers returned to the hospitality sector. In Ireland, Oyster Bay continues to achieve success as the number one premium New Zealand wine brand.

Slide 17 – Sales Performance: Australia, New Zealand and Asia Pacific
In the established New Zealand and Australia markets, Oyster Bay is a category-leading Super Premium wine brand. The Australia, New Zealand and Asia Pacific region achieved sales of 692,000 cases, 12% higher than in the previous year.

In Australia, Oyster Bay Sauvignon Blanc remains the top-selling wine by value. Oyster Bay Chardonnay remains as a top-selling premium Chardonnay whilst Oyster Pinot Noir and Merlot are category leaders. The New Zealand business had a very good year with sales increasing by 9% over last year, again driven by the re-emergence of on-premise activity.

In China, despite disruptions from ongoing lockdowns, the Group again experienced strong growth as wine consumption evolves. China represents long-term growth opportunity for the Group.

Slide 18 – Fan favourite
Oyster Bay remains an enduring brand in our major markets, popular with both customers and consumers alike. Being named Fan Favourite in White Wine in Australia is an example of the brand’s extraordinary popularity amongst discerning wine consumers.

Slide 19 – People & Culture
Our people are at the heart of the company and we are proud of the progress we are making across a range of initiatives.
Our recently completed Culture Survey indicates an 80% engagement score, which is very high. As we continue to improve company communications with our staff, their connection to our strategy, and their working environments around the world, we expect ongoing positive results on staff culture.
Attracting both permanent and seasonal staff remains a very important part of our people program with competition for talented staff as intense as ever. Delegat remains a sought-after employer and the calibre of our team continues to improve.
We have undertaken a range of initiatives from Work Health and Safety programs, diversity and inclusion initiatives, and expanding leadership and training programs, to further enhance our staff’s experience with the company.

Slide 20 – Global Marketing
The Group’s goal is to establish Oyster Bay and Barossa Valley Estate as leading brands in the Super Premium wine category globally.

Based on wine consumption patterns, the Group classifies markets as Established, Growth or Emerging. Understanding the level of maturity of our markets is essential for setting business strategy. Marketing activities are then tailored to the specific needs of each market and phases of brand development. Marketing programmes are designed to grow consumer awareness and affinity, supporting distribution and rate of sales growth for its brands.

The Group works closely with its retail partners to develop highly effective in-store activations that support rate of sales and nurture long-term brand affinity. In the consumer environment, the Group uses a mix of media channels, both online and offline to attract and engage the premium wine consumer.

Slide 21 – Global Supply Chain
The challenge of maintaining our supply chain over the last year has been significant and we are accordingly proud of our supply chain team’s efforts to navigate poor container availability, cancelled shipping bookings, and delays in ports throughout the world.
Our ability to ensure our retail customers have inventory to sell throughout the year is more important than ever given the ongoing delays in the supply chain. The investment in warehousing and supply chain infrastructure has been a critical component to our lift in sales over the last 12 months. While we have seen improvements in some trade routes, we anticipate this challenging environment to continue for the industry over the next two years.

Slide 22 – 2022 Vintage
The 2022 harvest delivered exceptional quality fruit across all three of our wine regions. The Group harvest of 44,861 tonnes was up 20% from the 2021 harvest (which had been an unusually small harvest).
Whilst the Marlborough and Hawke’s Bay growing season experienced above average rainfall the vintage outcome has delivered excellent quality wines. The Group has appropriate inventories to achieve the 2023 forecast case sales of 3,672,000 as noted in the Annual Report.

Slide 23 – Vineyard Development
The group developed 245 hectares of viticultural land in FY2022 which is being planted in the current year. The group is developing another 299 hectares in the current year and has a further 290 hectares of viticultural land which will be planted progressively from FY2025 onwards. The group now has 4,365 net hectares of vineyard and viticultural land, 4,023 hectares in New Zealand and 342 hectares in Australia. Of this 81% are owned or managed by the Company and 19% is from our grower partners.

Slide 24 - Investing for Growth
Delegat continues to invest in assets to support our growth strategy. During the year under review the Group generated cash flows from operations of $65.6 million as mentioned, which more than funded the $39.4 million invested in growth assets including development of the Group's wineries, land acquisition and vineyard development.
Delegat will invest an additional $51.9 million in FY2023 to provide earnings growth in the years ahead.

Slide 25 – Funding Growth
The Group has a strong balance sheet with shareholders’ equity of $499.5 million, net bank debt of $248.7 million and undrawn syndicated bank debt facilities of $87.3 million as at 30 June 2022. The Group’s retained earnings and syndicated bank debt facilities provide appropriate funding for our capital investment programme and growth plans.
In September 2022 the Group acquired the 200ha Dashwood vineyard in the Marlborough, Awatere Valley. This vineyard has been leased by the Group for 20 years and delivers excellent quality fruit consistently, is located in a prime viticulture growing area and is continguous with other vineyards that Delegat has purchased over the last decade. This acquisition achieves certainty of grape supply to support the 10 year plan at a lower financing cost to the business. The incumbent syndicate bankers, consisting of Westpac, Bank of New Zealand, China Construction Bank and Hongkong Shanghai Banking Group supported this acquisition through a new $40 million facility, reinforcing our well-established and enduring relationship.

Slide 26 – Outlook
With respect to the current year to June 2023, the Group is on track to achieve our plans to grow sales by 9% to 3,672,000 cases.
A component of that growth will be in our Barossa Valley Estate brand. While Barossa only represented 7% of Group Assets, 3% of Group production and 2% of Group sales, it remains an important part of the company. The whole Australian wine industry is going through a challenging period with access to the China market effectively suspended medium term and a supply imbalance. Despite the challenges, Barossa Valley Estate remains a quality asset and the Barossa Valley Estate team is producing outstanding quality wines. Illustrating this, the wines were awarded medals at a range of internationally recognized wine competitions, including the 2021 Sydney, Adelaide and Melbourne Royal Wine Shows, and the San Francisco International Wine Competition.
The Group continues to forecast the FY23 operating profit result to be in the range of $60 million - $64 million. The forecast Operating Net Profit After Tax is higher that this year's result due to increased case sales. The Group will continue to closely monitor and manage the potential impact of ongoing supply chain disruption and cost inflation, noting that these factors present some risk to the achievement of forecast sales and profit in FY23.
Beyond FY23, the Board is confident in the Group’s ability to prosper and drive sustainable sales and earnings growth over the long-term. Accordingly, the Group continues to invest in its assets, brands and people in line with our strategic goal to build a leading Super Premium wine company. The Group has revised its sales growth projections to 3,826,000 cases in FY24 and 3,947,000 cases in FY25. This represents a moderated rate of sales volume growth relative to the projections contained in the Annual Report. This will enable an increasing focus on value growth in addition to volume growth in an inflationary environment to ensure sustainable earnings growth over the next few years. The primary driver of planned sales growth is Oyster Bay sales in North America.

Slide 27 - Managing Director Concluding Remarks
As noted earlier, our people are key to the company’s performance over the last year and to realising the Group’s future goals. We are indebted to their hard work and appreciative of the way our people again brought to life our core value of Winning Together in a challenging year. They have collectively built a high performance team culture that is respected across the global wine industry.
Your company is well positioned to grow sales and achieve sustainable earnings growth in the years ahead on our journey to build a leading global Super Premium wine company.
Lastly, I would like to thank you, our shareholders, for your ongoing commitment and support.

This Resolution is numbered Agenda Items 3 and is an ordinary resolution. Directors seek approval to increase the Directors’ fee Pool from $495,000 to $730,000 to ensure a remuneration level which reflects both the growth of the Company and its associated increasing governance responsibilities.
There is no increase proposed for the Chair or director fee remuneration.
