SAFE OPERATIONS A record performance with no recordable incidents in over 19 months
• 19 months of operations with no recordable incidents, including
through the 2021 turnaround, reflecting a record personal safety
performance for Refining NZ
• Two Tier 1[1] process safety events:
• A fire (which was quickly extinguished with no significant
damage to the plant) occurred in the hydrocracking unit
when shutting down the plant for turnaround
• An LPG pipeline leak was quickly isolated and repaired
• Actions taken to further strengthen existing controls
• Site resource consent, covering refinery and import terminal
operations, renewed for 35 years
• Releases outside of consent involved the unauthorised use of
non-compliant fire-fighting foam during recent fire training
exercises
• Independent investigation into the incident
• Steps promptly taken to mitigate effects of foam discharge
• On-site controls further strengthened
• Ongoing testing to determine if any further treatment or
remediation is required

Simplified refinery model implemented from beginning of the year
• Simplified refinery model implemented from January 2021, with
Refinery capacity reduced by circa 18%[1]
• Gasoline and diesel demand have largely recovered to pre-
COVID levels, however demand for jet fuel remains weak at c.40%
of pre-COVID levels
• Lower operational availability reflects the impact of a four-week
maintenance turnaround successfully completed in March 2021,
including the first statutory inspection of the CCR unit
1 Equivalent of c.34 million barrels per annum with total refined fuels production levels similar to levels at the time of commencement of the Processing Agreement in 1995 and the cessation of bitumen production

REFINING MARGINSWeak refining margins due to excess capacity exacerbated by
COVID-19 demand impacts
• Negative Singapore complex margins continued in HY21
• Stronger Refining NZ uplift due to the lower price for
crudes processed by Refining NZ relative to the Dubai
crude price coupled with a lower fuel oil make
• Fee Floor contributions of c.$29 million (HY20: $39 million)

Maintained cash break-even operations at the Fee Floor
• Fee Floor in operation since 1H20, protecting
against the full extent of margin and demand
decline
• Refinery revenue lower due principally to reduced
natural gas supply (c.$4.3 million)
• Infrastructure revenue includes c.$5 million in
terminal fees from the import of refined products
during the turnaround
• Four-week maintenance turnaround safely
completed, to schedule and below budget, at a
total cost of $21 million (including $12 million in
HY21)
• Maintained cash neutral operations at the Fee
Floor after implementing simplified refinery
changes, including cost of turnaround
• No dividend

REPURPOSING OPPORTUNITIES
Horizon 1
Existing technology / market
Private & strategic fuel storage
VLSFO imports
Bitumen imports
Solar farm - On-grid/off-grid +battery/firming
Horizon 2
Investment / market development required
Biofuels terminal services
Sustainable aviation fuels production
Horizon 3
New market / technology
Marsden Point has the potential to contribute to the energy challenges New
Zealand needs to solve:
• Reliable, secure fuel supply if NZ no longer has a local refinery
• Gas shortages, NZ gas supply declining
• Unaffordable electricity & gas prices – supply, transmission, distribution
• Firming / storage solutions for increasingly renewable electricity supply and
phase out of thermal electricity generation
• Competitive green fuel supply, including for heavy transport and aviation
Green hydrogen
Initial opportunity assessment undertaken, with options
identified for further consideration1
1 Options listed are subject to ongoing work to assess potential feasibility. Disciplined approach to allocation of capital for options that can deliver an above cost of capital return.

• Tier 1 Process Safety Event (API 754) – A tier 1 Process Safety Event (PSE) is an unplanned or uncontrolled release of any material, including non-toxic and
non-flammable, from a process which results in one or more of the following: A LTI and/or fatality; A fire or explosion resulting in greater than or equal to
$25,000 of direct cost to the company; A release of material greater than the threshold quantities given in Table 1 of API 754 in any one-hour period; A
officially declared community evacuation or community shelter-in-place.
• Tier 2 Process Safety Event (API 754) – A tier 2 Process Safety Event (PSE) is an unplanned or uncontrolled release of any material, including non-toxic and

APPENDIX 2 NON-GAAP MEASURES
Refining NZ’s standard profit measure prepared under New Zealand Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (NZ GAAP) is net profit/(loss) after
tax. Refining NZ has used non-GAAP measures when discussing financial performance in this Full-Year Report. The Directors and Management
Team believe that these measures provide useful information as they are used internally to evaluate segmental and total Group performance, to
establish operating and capital budgets as well as being used for bank covenant purposes.
Non-GAAP profit measures are not prepared in accordance with NZ IFRS (New Zealand equivalents to International Financial Reporting
Standards) and are not uniformly defined, therefore the non-GAAP profit measures included in this report are not comparable with those used by
other companies. They should not be used in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP profit measures as reported by Refining NZ in accordance with
NZ IFRS.
