    Your directors present their report on the consolidated entity (referred to hereafter as the group) consisting of Cedar Woods Properties Limited and the entities it controlled at the end of, or during, the half-year ended 31 December 2025.



    The following persons were directors of Cedar Woods Properties Limited during the whole of the half-year and up to the date of this report:

    William George Hames (Chairman) Robert Stanley Brown (Deputy Chairman)

    Valerie Anne Davies (Independent Non-executive Director) Jane Mary Muirsmith (Independent Non-executive Director) Paul Gilbert Say (Independent Non-executive Director) Nathan John Blackburne (Managing Director)

    During the half-year the group continued the sale of lots and units at its residential and commercial projects in Australia.

    The group's earnings from period to period are dependent upon the timing of the settlements in each development. Management's focus is primarily on the achievement of full year results and the distribution of profits between half-years may from time to time be uneven due to the timing of settlements of significant projects.



    Since 31 December 2025 the directors have recommended the payment of an interim fully franked ordinary dividend of

    $11,911,000 (14.0 cents per share) to be paid on 24 April 2026 out of retained earnings at 31 December 2025.

    Income tax expense is recognised based on management's estimate of the weighted average effective annual income tax rate expected for the full financial year, adjusted for current tax of prior periods. The estimated average annual tax rate used for the six months to 31 December 2025 is 30%, compared to 30% for the six months ended 31 December 2024.





    Bank loan facilities totalling $330,000,000 (30 June 2025: $330,000,000) are provided by three major banks and are secured by first registered mortgages over some of the consolidated entity's landholdings, and first registered charges, guarantees and indemnities provided by Cedar Woods and applicable subsidiary entities. The group extended its corporate facility in February 2026 following its annual review. The changes included renewed facility tenure.

    The extended facility now comprises:

    • $264,000,000 of the facility extending to January 2029 (80% of permanent facility limit); and

    • $66,000,000 of the facility extending to January 2031 (20% of permanent facility limit).

    Subsequent to balance date, the directors have recommended the payment of an interim dividend of 14.0 cents per fully paid ordinary share (2024 - 10.0 cents), fully franked based on tax paid at 30%. A final dividend is also expected to be paid following the completion of the financial year.



    At 31 December 2025 bank guarantees totalling $54,979,000 (30 June 2025 - $59,353,000) had been provided to various state and local authorities supporting development and maintenance commitments. Some of these development commitments are recognised in inventory in the financial statements where the costs have been expended or provided for in part.



    The board has determined the operating segment based on the reports reviewed by the Managing Director that are used to make strategic decisions.

    The board has considered the business from both a product and a geographic perspective and has determined that the group operates a single business in a single geographic area and hence has one reportable segment.

    The group engages in property development and investment which takes place in Australia. The group has no separate business units or divisions.

    The internal reporting provided to the Managing Director includes key performance information at a whole of group level. The Managing Director uses the internal information to make strategic decisions, based primarily upon the expected future outcome of those decisions on the group as a whole. Material decisions to allocate resources are generally made at a whole of group level.

    The group mainly sells products to the public and is not generally reliant upon any single customer for 10%

    or more of the group's revenue.

    All of the group's assets are held within Australia.

    The Managing Director assesses the performance of the operating segment based on the net profit after tax, earnings per share and net tangible assets per share.



    On 20 January 2026, the group settled on an 18.6ha development site in Corio, Victoria. The land was purchased for $35,125,000.

    Independent auditor's review report to the members of Cedar Woods Properties Limited Conclusion

    We have reviewed the accompanying half-year financial report of Cedar Woods Properties Limited (the Company) and its subsidiaries (collectively the Group), which comprises the condensed consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2025, the condensed consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity and condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the half-year ended on that date, explanatory notes and the directors' declaration.

    Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report of the Group does not comply with the Corporations Act 2001, including:

    1. Giving a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 31 December 2025 and of its consolidated financial performance for the half-year ended on that date; and

    2. Complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

    Basis for conclusion

    We conducted our review in accordance with ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity (ASRE 2410). Our responsibilities are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the review of the half-year financial report section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board's APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to reviews of the half-year financial report of public interest entities in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

    Directors' responsibilities for the half-year financial report

    The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

    Auditor's responsibilities for the review of the half-year financial report

    Page 2

    Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review. ASRE 2410 requires us to conclude whether we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the half-year financial report is not in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 including giving a true and fair view of the Group's financial position as at 31 December 2025 and its performance for the half-year ended on that date, and complying with Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

    A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
