Woolworths 使新西兰超市的价值减少了 16 亿美元，预计息税前利润将下降 42%。 Woolworths reduces New Zealand supermarkets' value by $1.6bn, projects 42% ebit decline.

Woolworths 宣布对其新西兰超市进行大幅减记，使其价值减少 16 亿澳元，至 7 亿澳元。 Woolworths has announced a significant write-down of its New Zealand supermarkets, reducing their value by $1.6 billion to $700 million. 这一减少是由于“中期前景疲软”、利率上升以及新举措产生影响的滞后时间。 This reduction is due to a "weaker medium-term outlook", higher interest rates, and the lag time for new initiatives to have an impact. 因此，该公司还预计本财年上半年的息税前利润 (EBIT) 将下降 42%，至 7100 万美元。 Consequently, the company has also anticipated a 42% decline in earnings before interest and tax (ebit) to $71 million in the first half of the current financial year.
