Chris Liddell Year Quotations

We are now accelerating our investments in the business to drive future growth, which is reflected in our financial guidance. We believe next fiscal year will deliver even stronger double-digit (percentage) revenue growth than this year.

We feel good about the quarter ahead and good about the year ahead,

We have made a strategic decision with respect to next year that, given the set of opportunities and the revenue growth potential we see, we're willing to make that trade-off.

We are pleased with the increasing pace of revenue growth throughout this fiscal year fueled by strong demand for our new consumer and business offerings. We are now accelerating our investments in the business to drive future growth, which is reflected in our financial guidance. We believe next fiscal year will deliver even stronger double-digit revenue growth than this year.

We've had a good start to an important year for the company.

We have decided to aggressively invest next year in a number of areas, and (costs) do add up.

We had sales of over NZ$1 billion for the last quarter -- the result of developing new businesses, markets, products & services. Our exports continue to grow with New Zealand export sales for the first half up over 19 percent on the same period last year

A lot of that inherent growth in Australia, and strength in the economy, has helped keep those housing volumes up, but we would say by the end of this year or the beginning of next year, all other things being equal, for it to come off slightly.

This will be the first time since calendar year 1995 that we have had simultaneous launches of these two flagship products and we will make a considerable marketing and sales investment for these launches and, to a lesser extent, for the launch of Exchange 12.
