OPINION: The Hound notes that NZ Rural Land Co recently announced a $5.3m profit for the year ended Dec 31 2022, down a staggering $31.2m from the $36.5m profit it recorded six months earlier.
The company owns 11,710 hectares of rural land in New Zealand, which is tenanted on long-term leases.
It claims to "generate shareholder value through a combination of asset value appreciation and cash flows from its long-term leases".
Interestingly, this result was announced at the same time as NZ Rural Land Co's chair Rob Campbell was being sacked from his government-appointed roles for his anti-National party rants.
Despite Campbell being chair of the company, there was no comment from the chair about the declining company profit or poor result.
