Proposed Acquisitions and Capital Raising

New Zealand Rural Land Company Limited (NZX.NZL) has today announced a Pro Rata Accelerated Renounceable Entitlement Offer to raise approximately $20.38 million (Offer). The net proceeds of the Offer will be used to fund the acquisition of two further dairy assets, Argyle Downs and Greenhill. Chair of NZL, Rob Campbell said: "The acquisitions represent a continuation of NZL's strategy of broadening its portfolio of high-quality rural land assets which, following the acquisitions, will comprise approximately 11,710 hectares of dairy farms across Canterbury, Central Otago, and Southland. These assets are all underpinned by triple net leases with CPI-linked rental adjustments, resulting in NZL being well positioned in an inflationary environment." ACQUISITIONS NZL has entered agreements to acquire the following properties: o Argyle Downs Farm: A 564-hectare large scale dairy farm located in Southland, New Zealand to be leased to a new tenant with CPI linked rent reviews for an initial term of 11 years. The tenant is led by experienced operators with significant farming experience in New Zealand. o Greenhill Farm: A 366-hectare, dairy farm located in Southland, New Zealand to be leased to a new tenant with CPI-linked rent reviews for an initial term of 10 years. The tenant has a history of operational experience and good performance alongside a strong balance sheet supporting the lease, providing NZL with confidence as to the tenants' ability to farm in the region and comply with local regulations.
