The company\u2019s annual report also confirmed the NZ$821 million (US$462 million) Te Awaparahi Bay Expansion and Resilience Project.<\/p>\n<p>Revenue rose 9.2 per cent year on year, while gross operating increased 19 per cent to NZ$75.6 million (US$42.5 million). Underlying net profit after tax rose 33 per cent to NZ$33.4 million (US$18.8 million), the company reported.<\/p>\n<p>The South Island port handled 427,462 TEUs, compared with 431,556 TEUs in FY2025.
