Ann: NRW Holdings FY24 Results Update, page-6

Hi Sabine,

These are my takes.

The EBITA FY24 (unaudited) is $195m. If we remove the impact of the sale of the SPR shares ($8m to operating EBIT) then the EBITA FY24 would decrease to $187m. Guidance (top of range) was $185m (guidance range was $175m-185m) which still leaves the EBITA FY24 $2m above the top of the guidance range (ie $187m - $185m). Great result!

The SPR shares were sold in FY24 for $33.002m (56.9m shares x $0.58/share). These shares were valued at $9.964m at 30/6/2023 (or $0.175/share) as shown in the Full Year Statutory Accounts FY23 (Table 3.5). The 'gain' was therefore $23.038m ($33.002m-$9.964m).

I estimated the cost base of these 56.9m shares at $0.397/share.


The FY24 earnings from the sale of the SPR shares would then be $10.413m ie ($0.58-$0.397)x56.9m ... whereas the announcement says $8m was added to operating EBIT. I am not sure why there is a difference!

There is also CGT to pay (below the EBIT line) of ~$3.124m ($0.58-$0.397)x56.9x30% (no CGT discount available to companies).

Happy for posters to correct!
