REPORTING CALENDAR - SEPTEMBER 2022

It is the time of reporting season when investors wait for corporate New Zealand to release their results and outlook for the upcoming year.

New Zealand's economy went through a difficult period with border closures and the Ukraine-Russia standoff. The inflation also peaked at 7.3% leading to cost escalations for many companies.  Labour shortages impacted almost all industries with companies forced to increase their wages, leading to wage inflation as measured by the Labour Cost Index (LCI). Business confidence is at an all-time low and residential house prices are fast approaching the largest correction in half a century.

Investors expect a subdued earnings season as companies grapple with new economic uncertainties.  Analysts have pulled back their growth forecasts since the last major reporting season in February, signaling a delay in economic recovery which hurts company profits.

However, with a bounce back from the COVID-19 pandemic, certain industries are likely to perform better than others.

Amid this new economic environment, we've put up the reporting calendar to assist you in making better decisions while scanning the performance of various NZX-listed companies.

Kalkine's reporting calendar offers analysts, traders, and consumers a clear picture of the company's upcoming reporting dates and performance expectations.
