7 YTD Trading Update Group In the four months to 31 October 2017, group normalised revenue was up 1.7% on the pcp, with domestic revenue (which excludes IB) up 3.1% on the pcp New Zealand NZ properties are performing well, particularly in Auckland due to successful marketing and promotional initiatives which have helped counter the impact of disruption in the CBD Hamilton continuing to benefit from a strong macroeconomic environment in the Waikato region, but growth rates have moderated slightly due to stronger comparable periods Australia Improved premium gaming activity in Adelaide following implementation of new gaming concessions helping to offset impact of construction disruption from early works Impact of increased competitive pressures in Darwin stabilising, but trading environment remains soft overall International Business Momentum is building in the business with particularly strong activity levels over the Golden Week holiday period in October. However, IB turnover was slightly weaker on the pcp which largely pre-dated the Crown arrests in China YTD win rate of 1.47%, slightly above the theoretical of 1.35% Outlook Based on YTD performance, remain on-track to achieve modest growth in group EBITDA in FY18, in-line with previous guidance 6
