MKTUPDTE: THL: Updated FY20 guidance |

|
UPDATED FY20 GUIDANCE |
|
thl advises that it expects its underlying net profit after tax for the |
financial year ending 30 June 2020 (FY20) will be approximately $20 million. |
This compares to thl's previous guidance range of $17.5 - $19.5 million, as |
released on 25 June 2020. |
|
This underlying result excludes the impact from a number of one-off items, |
including the partial Togo exit undertaken in March 2020 which resulted in a |
one-off gain of $9.3M including tax and foreign exchange benefits, a one-off |
tax benefit of $1.1M in the USA and the write-off of $3.1 million of goodwill |
attributed to Kiwi Experience. thl's FY20 statutory net profit after tax, |
which is inclusive of these one-off items, is expected to be approximately |
$27 million. |
|
thl's net debt (bank borrowings less cash and cash equivalents) as at 30 June |
2020 was approximately $128 million. This compares to earlier expectations of |
net debt of approximately $133 million, as noted in thl's market release on |
31 July 2020. The variance was primarily attributable to the continued |
outperformance of vehicle sales, particularly in the United States. |
|
thl will be releasing its financial results for FY20 on Friday, 18 September |
2020. |
