Focused execution of strategic priorities under the new divisional operating model delivered positive momentum | ||||||||
throughout TWE in 1H22: | ||||||||
• | Penfolds reported a 19% decline in EBITS to $165.1m and an EBITS margin of 43.1% (down 1.4ppts). Reduced | |||||||
shipments to Mainland China were partly offset by strong growth across global priority markets and channels, with | ||||||||
NSR and EBITS outside of Mainland China increasing by 49.1% and 32.1% respectively on a constant currency | ||||||||
basis. Penfolds growth was particularly strong in Asian markets outside of Mainland China, where NSR grew | ||||||||
119%, supported by strong depletions trends. Increasing distribution in Asia, ANZ, Europe and the United States | ||||||||
was a key execution highlight in 1H22. | ||||||||
• | Treasury Americas reported a 19% increase in EBITS to $85.2m and an EBITS margin of 18.3% (up 4.2ppts). The | |||||||
personal• | TWE priority portfolio continued its strong momentum, delivering 18.8% NSR growth, led by Luxury portfolio | |||||||
performance in the on-premise and DTC channels where progressive reopening trends continued. In 1H22, | ||||||||
Treasury Americas substantially completed its significant asset and portfolio optimisation program with the | ||||||||
divestment of Provenance, Chateau St Jean and surplus supply chain assets, in addition to the acquisition of Frank | ||||||||
Family Vineyards, an excellent portfolio complement that supports Treasury Americas priorities for premiumisation, | ||||||||
growth and margin expansion. | ||||||||
Treasury Premium Brands reported a 19% increase in EBITS to $39.0m and an EBITS margin of 9.3% (up | ||||||||
1.9ppts). NSR declined 5.6%, with the impact of reduced Commercial portfolio volumes in EMEA and ANZ | ||||||||
moderated by the growth of key Premium portfolio brands, including 19 Crimes, Squealing Pig and Pepperjack. | ||||||||
NSR per case increased 6.9%, reflecting strong portfolio premiumisation. Treasury Premium Brands continued its | ||||||||
focus on innovation led portfolio growth, with the successful launch of the Wolf Blass Zero alcohol range and new | ||||||||
multi-country of origin offerings for Rawson's Retreat and Blossom Hill key execution highlights. | ||||||||
Sustainability | ||||||||
For |
TWE continued to take considerable steps forward in 1H22 towards its sustainability ambition of cultivating a brighter future, including defining its sustainability strategy and setting a comprehensive suite of sustainability targets.
Key sustainability highlights in the period included:
- Improved reporting of progress against targets and commitments in the 2021 Sustainability Report
- Joining RE100, a global initiative bringing together the world's most influential businesses, underlining TWE's commitment to 100% renewable energy
- Refinancing $1.4bn of existing debt facilities to include the establishment of Sustainability Linked Loans, providing a direct link between TWE's sustainability performance and its cost of capital

Future perspectives
TWE's financial objective remains to deliver sustainable top-line growth and high-single digit average earnings growth over the long-term8.
TWE expects that trading conditions for the remainder of F22 will be broadly consistent with those in 1H22 across all
onlykey global markets and channels.
On today's results announcement, TWE's Chief Executive Officer Tim Ford commented:
"We are very pleased with our first half results, where we delivered comparable EBITS growth of 28% when taking into account the effective closure of the Mainland China market, while at the same time continuing with the implementation of important changes across the business. This performance reflects the focused execution of our plans and strategic priorities, led for the first time by Penfolds, Treasury Americas and Treasury Premium Brands. Each division is now on a clear and positive trajectory towards their respective long-term growth objectives, with the benefits of separate focus and accountability already very evident throughout TWE.
useFollowing the past two years of significant change within TWE and the markets in which we operate, we have shifted our focus from a mindset of 'recovery and restructuring' to one of 'growth and innovation'. We have great confidence
that by leveraging the unique strengths of our business - our people, our brands and our asset base - we are well placed to capitalise on the significant opportunities across the global markets in which we operate."
