Chair’s Report
On behalf of the Board of
Directors I am pleased to present
the Annual Report for FY25; a year
where Elders delivered a steady
financial performance resulting
in underlying earnings before
interest and tax of $143.5 million.
Elders’ strength lies in its diverse, multi-
product, and geographically balanced
portfolio, supported by the Eight Point
Plan, which helped to mitigate the impact
of dry conditions across key regions. In
FY25 this diversification ensured that we
met our core ambition of delivering great
returns in good years, and good returns in
average years.
Acquisition of Delta Agribusiness
This year Elders has focussed on the
acquisition of Delta Agribusiness (Delta),
our largest strategic growth initiative in
recent years. This acquisition completed
3 November 2025 and expands our
geographic footprint in key regions
and enhances our retail presence
and agronomic service offering. Delta’s
integration, guided by a 'light-touch'
strategy, will see Elders and Delta leverage
their collaborative strengths and deep
community connections to provide value
to our clients.
Operational highlights
Elders’ operational efficiency initiatives
continued to mature in FY25. The
Systems Modernisation (SysMod) program
is positioned to deliver tangible results,
unlocking efficiency gains and ensuring
systems are fit to sustain the business
for future growth. Furthermore, continued
focus on our rural products backward
integration strategy remains crucial in
improving margins and supply chain
resilience. The launch of the AgriToll
formulation facility in Western Australia
this year was an important milestone in
this strategy.
Leadership succession
The Board is actively engaged in a global
search for the appointment of a new
Chief Executive Officer. Mark Allison’s
considerable contribution to this business
cannot be understated and we are looking
for an individual of the highest calibre to
steer Elders in its next phase.
The CEO’s position is complemented
by a very strong executive leadership
team whose diverse skills and thorough
understanding of rural and regional
Australia are instrumental in Elders’ next
phase of growth. Recent changes to
establish an entity-based management
structure has enhanced operational clarity
and accountability, positioning Elders
to deliver improved shareholder value
through more agile and efficient execution.
As part of this evolution, in FY26, each
division will have its own CEO. Nick
Fazekas has been appointed Divisional
CEO of Elders Crop Protection. Peter
Lourey has been appointed Divisional
CEO of AIRR. Elders Real Estate is
now a standalone division, led by Tom
Russo as Divisional CEO, recognising the
entity’s strong performance and strategic
importance within the broader Elders
portfolio. Feed and Processing will remain
led by Andrew Talbot, now as Divisional
CEO. The Divisional CEO of Elders Rural
Services will be appointed in due course.
Also, in July, Tammy Harrington was
appointed to the Executive Committee as
General Manager Business Development
in which she has since played a significant
role with the completion of Elders’
acquisition of Delta.
Board renewal
Our Board renewal process continued
in FY25 with the aim of enhancing
the Board’s capabilities and diversity of
skill. In January 2025, Bethwyn Todd
commenced as an independent Non-
Executive Director bringing significant
executive experience coupled with a strong
understanding of the agricultural sector.
Stephanie Nixon also joined the Board
as Non-Executive Director on 1 October
2025 and brings important expertise,
particularly in corporate strategy, mergers
and acquisitions, governance, and
risk management.
On 1 November 2025, Glenn Davis officially
assumed the role of Chair. I will retire
from my role as a Non-Executive Director
of Elders at this year’s AGM after almost
12 years on the Board. It has been
a privilege to serve this historic and
important Australian-owned company, and
I am proud of the progress we have
made together. During my time as Chair,
I have had the privilege of steering
Elders through some considerable and
transformational projects including the
acquisition of AIRR, the implementation of
the SysMod program, the investment in
Elders Wool, and now Delta.
I extend my gratitude to my fellow Board
members. I also thank our shareholders
for your continued support, and our clients
for the trust you place in Elders every day.

CEO’s Report
In FY25, Elders continued
to demonstrate the strength
and resilience that has
defined our 186-year legacy in
Australian agribusiness.
We remained steadfast in our commitment
to sustainable growth, operational
excellence, and client trust, in the face of
mixed seasonal conditions. We prioritised
improvements to our systems to best
equip us to serve producers into the future
and made considerable headway in our
strategy for acquisitive growth to add to
the diversity of our portfolio.
Safety, health and environment
At Elders, we are dedicated to continually
evolving and improving our safety
performance. It is unacceptable that any
of our people are harmed at work and
we continue our efforts to achieve a ‘zero
harm’ work environment.
This year we incurred six lost time injuries
but achieved a notable reduction in our
Total Recordable Injury Frequency Rate
(TRIFR), down to 4.5 from 9.0 in FY24.
Lost time injuries are well below industry
rates. We attribute the reduction in total
recordable injuries this year to the positive
impact of recently implemented safety
training, Critical Safety Standards and the
progression of our strategic Safety, Health
& Environment plan. These results have
also been supported by our renewed focus
on capability building and safe behaviours,
delivering meaningful improvements in
workplace safety.
Financial performance
In FY25, Elders achieved underlying
earnings before interest and tax (EBIT)
of $143.5 million. Under mixed seasonal
conditions, Elders’ diversified portfolio
played a key role in mitigating the impact
of dry conditions across key agricultural
regions, with stronger activity in livestock
and real estate supporting overall results.
A summary of our FY25 results include:
• underlying earnings before interest
and tax at $143.5 million
• gross margin of $684.6 million,
supported by strong livestock prices and
real estate growth
• cost increase of 6%, with key
drivers from acquisitions and
transformational initiatives
• return on capital (ROC) of 11.3%,
consistent with last year, impacted by
transformational activities, with capital
deployed preceding benefits
• accounting leverage ratio (including
the capital raised for the Delta
Agribusiness acquisition) of 1.8 times
• operating cash inflow of $117.9 million
and cash conversion of 137%
• eight new businesses acquired and six
additional points of presence
• underlying earnings per share of 46.5
cents and dividends per share of
36.0 cents
CEO’s Report 5
Growth and reinvestment
By the time this report is released, Elders
will have completed its acquisition of Delta
Agribusiness (Delta). Our team worked
extensively throughout FY25 to achieve this
result, and we are delighted to welcome
Delta to Elders where they will continue
to operate independently, delivering value
to customers through their well-reputed
brand and people.
The acquisition of Delta will add 58
retail locations to our rural network,
greatly improving our geographic reach
and diversification in key agricultural areas.
It will also create a range of benefits that
will flow on to clients, including allowing
clients to access an expanded product
and services range, stronger supply
partnerships, enhanced expertise, and
greater collaborative innovation efforts.
For our shareholders, it is an example
of Elders’ continuing growth story and
strategy to create meaningful returns.
In FY26 we expect the Delta acquisition
to provide a material increase to Retail
Products gross margin.
Elders continued to make strong
progress on the Systems Modernisation
project (SysMod), supporting growth
and delivering a seamless customer
experience. In FY25 we advanced Wave
2, rolling out Microsoft Dynamics 365
across retail operations and supply
chain. Most retail branches will be
operating in D365 in Q1 of FY26, with
remaining sites, B&W Rural, warehouses
and third party logistics, to follow. Progress
also continued on Wave 3 Livestock,
introducing saleG8 as the new livestock
operations system that will commence in
South Australia later this year. Wave 4
is now underway, working to transition
financial and customer management
processes from AS400 into D365 to deliver
more efficient and connected systems. It
also includes development of a new Elders
Online customer portal and Real Estate
Settlements system, both scheduled for
release in 2026.
Elders made significant progress
embedding sustainability across its
operations, with a strong focus on climate
impacts and environmental stewardship.
We achieved our target of 100%
renewable electricity across all Australian
sites ahead of schedule, primarily
through investments in solar energy,
energy-efficient equipment, and the
procurement of Large-Scale Generation
Certificates. We progressed our waste
strategy by partnering with bagMUSTER,
operated by AgSafe, to pilot additional
avenues for collecting and recycling
agricultural plastic bags, supporting
circular economy outcomes.
Elders commenced alignment with
the Australian Sustainability Reporting
Standards (ASRS) in preparation for
mandatory compliance, taking early action
to lead in this space. We also further
strengthened our supply chain resilience
with the launch of AgriToll, a domestic
crop protection manufacturing business
to bolster local supply chains and reduce
environmental impact.
Community engagement remains central
to our identity and sustainability ambitions,
and in FY25 our investments in community
initiatives were again supplemented by
the distribution of grants under our
Community Giving Project. Over the course
of the program, which commenced in
FY24, Elders has funded 25 local initiatives
across six pillars, including environmental
awareness, innovation, and diversity.
A highlight of FY25 was the formalisation
of a Memorandum of Understanding with
Charles Sturt University (CSU) to advance
sustainable innovation and education
through the creation of a BioSolutions
Hub, research collaboration, and student
engagement programs. This partnership is
designed to drive agricultural innovation,
support First Nations Australians to pursue
careers in agriculture, and ensure that
Elders’ work remains at the forefront of
industry needs.
In sustainable agriculture, Thomas Elder
Sustainable Agriculture (TESA) drove
innovation through research partnerships,
trial demonstrations, and advisory services
that promote adaptive farming practices
and carbon farming. This is an industry
leading arm that supports farmer
adoption of the latest agricultural
innovation for greater productivity and
sustainability outcomes.
Outlook
At the start of FY26, we made
some important changes to company
structure that will position us for
growth in the coming year and improve
accountability and transparency. These
changes include the establishment of
a group structure where distinct, yet
interconnected, business entities sit under
Elders Limited management.
We also implemented changes to the
Elders Rural Services structure, moving
from a state-based to a regional structure
with defined Northern, Southern and
Western Regions. These regions are
aligned to agricultural production zones
and will be led by three regional general
managers. Our new divisional structure
marks a significant evolution of Elders and
sets the direction for the next phase of
Elders’ storied history.
It is with much optimism that I look to
2026 and the opportunities for Elders to
grow and prosper alongside our clients.
Elders expects EBIT growth in FY26
driven by a positive forecasting for most
agricultural commodities, and a significant
contribution from Delta to Rural Products
margin. We now have clear direction for
stable and methodical performance to
make the most of improved conditions
and to remain responsive to the needs of
agricultural communities.
On behalf of the leadership team, I would
like to thank our people, the engine room
of our success, for their dedication and
collaboration in achieving FY25’s result. I’d
also like to thank the Elders Board, and our
clients for their ongoing support.

Operating and
Financial Review
Throughout FY25, Elders
demonstrated strong operational
and financial resilience in
the face of mixed seasonal
conditions. Elders’ diversified
portfolio, through its national
geographic footprint and multi-
product offering, played a key
role in mitigating the impact
of dry conditions across key
regions, with stronger activity
in livestock and real estate
supporting overall results.
Elders is well positioned to benefit from an
improving agricultural outlook, supported
by improved capability and efficiency from
the roll out of modern systems.

Operating and Financial Review 11
Sales
Sales increased $70.4 million or 2% compared to last year. This is largely driven by ongoing improvements in price for cattle and
sheep, and higher cattle volumes. Real Estate continued to be a key contributor, with outperformance across broadacre, residential and
property management.
This was partially offset by subdued crop protection sales with dry conditions prevailing across Southern parts of the country until June.
Improved confidence and client sentiment in the drier regions followed rainfall in Q4, however, the improved trading conditions did not
completely offset the impact to crop protection sales in the second and third quarters. Fertiliser, seed and animal health sales remained
favourable to the prior year.
Gross Margin
Retail Products
Retail Products margin declined compared to last year, due to continued localised competition, exacerbated by dry conditions particularly in
South Australia and western Victoria. The most significant decrease was attributable to crop protection gross margin, resulting from lower
sales and competitive pressure. Strong sales performance in fertiliser and animal health partially offset this impact in gross margin.
Wholesale Products
Wholesale Products gross margin was stable compared to last year. Despite an uplift in sales, gross margin percent declined, impacted by
product mix and competitive pressure in the crop protection wholesale market exacerbated in dry regions.
Agency Services
Agency Services gross margin increased compared to last year. Livestock continued to outperform with significant uplifts in price for cattle
and sheep, and higher cattle volumes. Wool gross margin saw ongoing improvement, with the full year benefits from Elders Wool Handling
partly driving upside in earn per bale. This was partially offset by lower bales sold, in line with reduced global demand for wool as producers
continue to await a market recovery.
Real Estate Services
Real Estate Services gross margin improved compared to last year, with the IPST Holdings (previously operated as Knight Frank Tasmania)
acquisition providing a full year benefit to prior year. There was continued organic growth across all key service categories, supported
by improving seasonal conditions and stronger commodity prices, as well as recent interest rate cuts supporting demand for rural and
residential properties.
Financial Services
Financial Services gross margin increased compared to last year, with outperformance across most categories offsetting foregone earnings
from the finalisation of the Rural Bank relationship agreement. Gross margin from livestock related products continued to increase in line
with improved livestock conditions, supported by growth in the recently established Elders Finance employed broker model (encompassing
commercial, agriculture, and asset finance loans).
Feed and Processing Services
Feed and Processing Services gross margin grew compared to last year, largely attributable to increased cattle throughput, as well as
production efficiencies gained through the recent investment in a modern feed mill. This resulted in higher average daily weight gain and a
reduction in downtime.
Costs
Costs increased $31.4 million or 6% compared to last year, with $19.5 million pertaining to acquisitions and growth-related activities.
Underlying costs increased slightly (2.2%), supported by strict cost management discipline across the business, as well as flow on benefits
from cost savings initiatives implemented in late FY24. Cost to earn improved slightly from 80% to 79%.
Net Profit After Tax
Net profit after tax includes the recognition of underlying tax expense ($24.4 million), effective from 1 October 2021. The physical payment
of tax is expected to commence in FY26, following the FY25 tax return.

Wholesale Products
Wholesale Products EBIT declined year on year. Despite an uplift in sales, gross margin percentage declined, impacted by product mix and
competitive pressure in the chemical wholesale market. Costs increased compared to the prior year but maintained below inflation.
New South Wales
New South Wales EBIT uplift supported by gross margin outperformance across most products, particularly Agency Services, with favourable
livestock prices and volumes in both cattle and sheep. Increased cattle throughput and ongoing efficiencies contributed to margin
improvement in Killara.
Queensland and Northern Territory
Queensland and Northern Territory resulted in a strong EBIT uplift year on year. Real Estate gross margin outperformed across broadacre,
residential and property management categories, while livestock prices and volumes also contributed to the upside. Costs were well
contained, driven by cost savings initiatives.
Victoria and Riverina
Victoria and Riverina resulted in a gross margin uplift, with Agency Services recording a significant increase. However, this growth was
partially offset by a decline in Retail Products sales, largely attributable to prolonged dry conditions in parts of western Victoria, adversely
impacting crop protection demand, especially during the second and third quarters. Costs increased compared to last year, largely due to
higher people costs.
South Australia
South Australia’s EBIT was significantly impacted by ongoing dry conditions across most of the state, up until June. Whilst Retail Products
gross margin was subdued as a result, Real Estate and Financial Services recorded an uplift on the prior year. Costs remained consistent year
on year.
Tasmania
Tasmania's EBIT improved year on year, benefitting from a full year of the IPST Holdings (previously operated as Knight Frank Tasmania)
acquisition. Gross margin across most products were also favourable compared to last year.
Western Australia
Western Australia recorded a considerable EBIT uplift on the prior year. Improved livestock prices and growth in residential and property
management were key features for the year, which was also supported by cost savings initiatives.
Corporate Overheads
Corporate overheads increased year on year. This is largely driven by strategic and transformational expenditure, including Systems
Modernisation and associated IT costs.

• trade and other receivables increased $94.4 million or 11%, mainly due to Livestock debtors, in line with higher sales turnover
• inventory increased $41.5 million or 10%, corresponding with uplifts in winter crop sales, which were delayed by a late winter break and
