Objectives for the day

• Principal objectives:
- Introduce the team
- Update the facts
- Highlight the challenges and the opportunities
- Lay out the plan
- Get your perspective

• Focus is on capital allocation, NZ energy markets and positioning of


Greenstone Energy and TrustPower:
- Australian energy focus day is scheduled for March 29 in Sydney

• Emphasis on the long-term prospects and valuation considerations for


our businesses

• Brief update on Christchurch

3
Infratil – focus and consistency are reaping rewards

• Strengthening cash flow and earnings


• Increased proportion of portfolio with strong market positions in sectors
we believe are fundamentally attractive
• Improving value of internal development pipeline and reinvestment
options
• Better access to capital following improved credit metrics and
significant program of capital raising and refinancing
• The Greenstone transaction is an example of the opportunities
available for an investor with operating experience and access to
capital

Consistency and discipline will drive a re-rating

4
Current context … pressure building for a re-rating

• Emphasis on improving free cash


flow and earnings continues
• Core holdings performing very well
and current outlook is significantly
ahead of our base 2010-11 plan
targets
• Value of internal development
pipeline continues to grow
• Less competition for complex
infrastructure assets requiring active
management
• Most investors accept that IFT is
trading at a significant discount to
underlying valuation

5
Investors seeking confirmation and follow through

• The Greenstone transaction has forced a partial re-examination of IFT


following a busy 2008-2010
- good execution in a number of financial and operational initiatives
- most investors now looking for follow through and confirmation of recent
performance

• While IFT returns have been good over 2009 and 2010, the share price
has basically tracked improvements in underlying NTA
- Discount to NTA remains wide
• Good long-term sector allocation and growth in valuations needs to be
supported by active management and delivery of tangible short-term
results
- Transparency over operational milestones and valuation metrics
- Periodic realisations

Steady growth in free cash flow and earnings is always the best catalyst

6
2010/11 delivery - better performance with less risk

• Greenstone Energy
- Market share gains and improving margins in
rapidly changing market
- Opportunities to reinvest
- Capex consistent with bid case
• Lumo Energy (formerly Infratil Energy Australia)
- Material earnings contribution
- NSW privatisation a positive outcome re future
wholesale liquidity, and strong industry valuation
markers
- Proven value of peaking facilities in increasingly
volatile market with weak average price outlook
• Limited refinancing risk
- Successful GEL, TPW and IFT parent bond offers
- Successful rollover of senior debt (with good term
and pricing)
- Significantly improved financial flexibility

7
Investors are adept at finding new concerns …

• Immediate outlook for TPW


- recent TPW performance and spike in
customer churn following SOE asset swaps
has raised some question over the medium
term outlook

• Privatisation of SOE’s
- SOE privatizations – although good for long
term market discipline – may create some
liquidity and trading issues during the
execution phase

• Sustainability of GEL earnings in the long


term
- How long can margin and volume growth be
sustained?

Capital allocation priorities are under constant review

• Portfolio rebalancing is not complete


- Still monitoring public transport and European airport sectors
- Other opportunities to recycle capital (e.g. Snowtown I)
• Group capital expenditure largely depends on decisions around TPW,
Greenstone, and Australian energy
- TPW: generation and irrigation
- Greenstone: branding decision and terminal choices
- Australian energy: generation (WA and NSW) and retail
- NZ Bus fleet renewal underway
• Origination activity is largely focused on energy and transport opportunities in
Australia and NZ
- Opportunities adjacent to our existing positions in Greenstone Energy and IEA/Lumo
- Market scans are constantly conducted across a broad range of infrastructure sectors

Buybacks and periodic realisations will be executed when value to price


ratios highlight the best use of scarce capital

2011 Outlook - upside bias to EBITDAF earnings

• EBITDAF range $415 million to $435


million – major assumptions:
- approx $30 million equity earnings contribution from HY 30 Sept 2010 FY 2011
50% of Greenstone Energy ($Millions) H1 2011 Guidance
- TrustPower EBITDAF in line with FY 2010
EBITDAF $258 $415‐$435
- WIAL and NZ Bus hold first half gains
- IEA $40-$50m FY EBITDAF reflecting significant
seasonality in second half of year Net Interest ($80) ($160‐$170)

• Upside confidence to EBITDAF outlook Operating Cash Flow $94 $160‐$180


partially balanced by recent developments
- GEL gross margins temporarily impacted by recent
Investment/Capex ($301) ($450‐$500)
spike in crude oil prices and weakness in NZD
- Direct cost of Christchurch earthquake

• Operating cash flow reflects EBITDAF,


interest, tax and anticipated movements in
working capital

17
Confidence in the long-term outlook

• Favourable sector trends and capital investment program will drive


consolidated EBITDAF towards $500 million
- exposure to rising energy prices and consumption, changing NZ fuels industry, air
travel and urban mobility
• Next phase of investment cycle will suit Infratil
- large pools of infrastructure capital targeting passive utility returns (not growth
infrastructure)
- few active managers of complex assets
- many quality assets currently in “work-out” or PE funds
- constraints on government spending will mean increased private provision of
infrastructure
• Infratil’s priorities: energy and transport sectors in Australia and New
Zealand
- control or influential stakes in unlisted assets in sectors we understand well
- partnerships and co-investment model especially for larger value opportunities
- other sectors and investment ideas continue to be actively monitored
