PROPERTY FOR INDUSTRY LIMITED GROUP FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2016

1. GENERAL INFORMATION

IN THIS SECTION

This section sets out the basis upon which the Group’s Financial Statements are prepared. Specific accounting policies are described in the note to

which they relate.

1.1. Reporting entity

These financial statements are for Property for Industry Limited (the Company) and its subsidiary P.F.I. Property No. 1 Limited (PFI No. 1) (together,

the Group). The Company is a limited liability company incorporated in New Zealand and is registered under the New Zealand Companies Act 1993.

The Company is a FMC reporting entity under Part 7 of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013 and these audited consolidated financial statements

have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the NZX Main Board Listing Rules. The Company is registered on the New Zealand Stock

Exchange (NZSX: PFI).

The Group’s principal activity is property investment and management in New Zealand.

1.2. Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with New Zealand Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (NZ GAAP), the Financial

Reporting Act 2013 and the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013. They comply with New Zealand Equivalents to International Financial Reporting

Standards (NZ IFRS) and other applicable Financial Reporting Standards as appropriate to profit oriented entities. The financial statements also

comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except where otherwise identified. All financial information is presented in

New Zealand dollars and has been rounded to the nearest thousand.

1.3. Group companies

As at 31 December 2016 and 31 December 2015, PFI No. 1 is the only controlled entity and is wholly owned.

1.4. Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements comprise the Company and the entity it controls. All intercompany transactions are eliminated on consolidation.

1.5. New standards, amendments and interpretations

New standards, amendments and interpretations have been published that are not yet effective and have not been early adopted by the Group.

Those which may be relevant to the Group are explained below:

• NZ IFRS 9 ‘Financial Instruments’. This standard will eventually replace NZ IAS 39 Financial Instruments - Recognition and Measurement. It is

required to be adopted by the Group in the financial statements for the year ending 31 December 2018, the Group has not yet assessed the impact

of this standard.

• NZ IFRS 15 ‘Revenue from Contracts with Customers’. This standard addresses the recognition of revenue from contracts with customers.

It specifies the revenue recognition criteria governing the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the

consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. It is required to be adopted by the Group in the

financial statements for the year ending 31 December 2018, the Group has not yet assessed the impact of this standard.

• NZ IFRS 16 ‘Leases’. This standard will replace the current guidance in NZ IAS 17. Under NZ IFRS 16, a contract is, or contains, a lease if the

contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Under NZ IAS 17, a lessee

was required to make a distinction between a finance lease (on balance sheet) and an operating lease (off balance sheet). NZ IFRS 16 now

requires a lessee to recognise a lease liability reflecting future lease payments and a ‘right-of-use asset’ for virtually all lease contracts. Included

is an optional exemption for certain short-term leases and leases of low-value assets; however, this exemption can only be applied by lessees.

For lessors, the accounting for leases under NZ IFRS 16 is almost the same. However, as the guidance on the definition of a lease has been

updated (as well as the guidance on the combination and separation of contracts), lessors will also be affected by the new standard.

The standard is effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. Early adoption is permitted but only in conjunction with

NZ IFRS 15, ‘Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Group intends to adopt NZ IFRS 16 on its effective date and has yet to assess its

full impact.

PROPERTY FOR INDUSTRY LIMITED GROUP FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2016

1. GENERAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)

1.6. Critical judgements, estimates and assumptions

In applying the Group’s accounting policies, the Board and Management continually evaluates judgements, estimates and assumptions that may have

an impact on the Group. The significant judgements, estimates and assumptions made in the preparation of these financial statements are as follows:

2.1. Investment properties Page 10

3.2. Derivative financial instruments Page 18

5.2. Taxation Page 21

5.5. Goodwill Page 23

1.7. Accounting policies

No changes to accounting policies have been made during the year and policies have been consistently applied to all years presented.

Significant accounting policies have been included throughout the notes to the financial statements.

Other relevant policies are provided as follows:

Share capital

All shares on issue are fully paid, carry equal voting rights, share equally in dividends and any surplus on wind up and have no par value. All shares

are recognised at the fair value of the consideration received by the Company. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are

shown in equity as a deduction from the proceeds.

Measurement of fair values

A number of the Group’s accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values. The Board and Management have overall

responsibility for overseeing all significant fair value measurements and transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy. The Group’s policy is to

recognise transfers into and out of fair value levels as of the date of transfer or change in circumstances that caused the transfer.

The carrying values of all balance sheet financial assets and liabilities approximate their estimated fair values.

The Board and Management review significant unobservable inputs and valuation adjustments. If third party information is used to measure fair

values, then the Board and Management assesses the evidence obtained from the third parties to support the conclusion that such valuations meet

the requirements of NZ IFRS, including the level of the fair value hierarchy in which such valuations should be classified.

Goods and services tax

These financial statements have been prepared on a goods and services tax (GST) exclusive basis except for the accounts receivable balance,

accounts payable balance and other items where GST incurred is not recoverable. These balances are stated inclusive of GST.

1.8. Significant events and transactions

The financial position and performance of the Group was affected by the following events and transactions that occurred during the reporting period:

Investment property disposal

In December 2016 the Group entered into an unconditional contract to dispose of a non-core property at 27 Zelanian Drive, East Tamaki for a net sales

price of $8.3 million.

2.1. Investment properties (continued)

Recognition and Measurement

Investment properties are held to earn rental income and for long term capital appreciation. After initial recognition at cost including directly

attributable acquisition costs, investment properties are measured at fair value, on the basis of valuations made by independent valuers on at least

an annual basis. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair values of investment properties are included in the Consolidated Statement of

Comprehensive Income in the year in which they arise.

Subsequent expenditure is charged to the asset’s carrying amount only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item

will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably.

The fair value of investment property reflects the Directors’ assessment of the highest and best use of each property and amongst other things,

rental income from current leases and assumptions about rental income from future leases in light of the current market conditions. The fair value

also reflects the cash outflows that could be expected in respect of the property.

No depreciation or amortisation is provided for on investment properties. However, for tax purposes, depreciation is claimed on building fit-out and

a deferred tax liability is recognised where the building component of the registered valuation exceeds the tax book value of the building. The

deferred tax liability is capped at the amount of depreciation that has been claimed on each building.

Investment properties under construction are carried at cost until it is possible to reliably determine their fair value, from which point they are

carried at fair value less costs to complete.

Gains or losses on the disposal of investment properties are recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income in the period in

which the risks and rewards of the investment property have been fully transferred to the purchaser.

Borrowing costs are capitalised if they are directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of a qualifying property. Capitalisation of

borrowing costs commences when the activities to prepare the asset are in progress and expenditures and borrowing costs are being incurred.

Capitalisation of borrowing costs will continue until the asset is substantially ready for its intended use. The rate at which borrowing costs are

capitalised is determined by reference to the weighted average borrowing costs of the Group and the average level of borrowings by the Group.

Key estimates and assumptions: Investment properties

The fair value of investment properties are determined from valuations prepared by independent valuers using Level 3 valuation techniques.

All investment properties were valued as at 31 December 2016 and 2015 by CB Richard Ellis (CBRE), Colliers International (Colliers), Jones Lang

LaSalle (JLL) or Savills. CBRE, Colliers, JLL and Savills are independent valuers and members of the New Zealand Institute of Valuers.

As part of the valuation process, the Manager, PFIM Limited (PFIM), verifies all major inputs to the independent valuation reports, assesses

movements in individual property values and holds discussions with the independent valuer.

The fair value was determined using Level 3 valuation techniques via a combination of the following approaches:

• Direct Capitalisation: The subject property rental is divided by a market derived capitalisation rate to assess the market value of the asset.

Further adjustments are then made to the market value to reflect under or over renting, additional revenue and required capital expenditure.

• Discounted Cash Flow: Discounted cash flow projections for the subject property are based on estimates of future cash flows, supported by the

terms of any existing lease and by external evidence such as market rents for similar properties in the same location and condition, and using

discount rates that reflect current market assessments of the uncertainty in the amount and timing of the cash flows.

2. PROPERTY (CONTINUED)

2.1. Investment properties (continued)

Generally, a change in the assumption made for the adopted market capitalisation rate is accompanied by a directionally similar change in the

adopted terminal capitalisation rate. The adopted market capitalisation rate forms part of the direct capitalisation approach and the adopted terminal

capitalisation rate forms part of the discounted cash flow approach. Both valuation methodologies are considered when determining an investment

property’s fair value.

When calculating the direct capitalisation approach, the market rental has a strong interrelationship with the adopted market capitalisation rate given

the methodology involves assessing the total market rental income receivable from the property and capitalising this in perpetuity to derive a capital

value. In theory, an increase in the market rent and an increase in the adopted market capitalisation rate could potentially offset the impact to the fair

value. The same can be said for a decrease in the market rent and a decrease in the adopted market capitalisation rate. A directionally opposite

change in the market rent and the adopted market capitalisation rate could potentially magnify the impact to the fair value.

When assessing a discounted cash flow, the adopted discount rate and adopted terminal capitalisation rate have a strong interrelationship in deriving

a fair value given the discount rate will determine the rate at which the terminal value is discounted to the present value. In theory, an increase in the

adopted discount rate and a decrease in the adopted terminal capitalisation rate could potentially offset the impact to the fair value. The same can be

said for a decrease in the discount rate and an increase in the adopted terminal capitalisation rate. A directionally similar change in the adopted

discount rate and the adopted terminal capitalisation rate could potentially magnify the impact to the fair value.

basis in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income over the length of the lease to which they relate, as a reduction to rental income.

Management fee income is recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income in the period in which the services are rendered.

Prepaid loan fees (776) (780)

Net borrowings 332,924 330,920

Recognition and Measurement

All borrowings are initially measured at fair value, plus directly attributable transaction costs, and subsequently measured at amortised cost using

the effective interest rate method. Under this method, directly attributable fees, costs, discounts and premiums are capitalised and spread over the

expected life of the facility. All other interest costs and bank fees are expensed in the period they are incurred.

(ii) Facility

On 3 February 2016, the Group entered into revised facilities (A and B) with a banking syndicate comprising ANZ Bank New Zealand Limited (ANZ),

Bank of New Zealand (BNZ), Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA) and Westpac New Zealand Limited (Westpac) for $375,000,000.

Facility A for $187,500,000 and Facility B for $187,500,000 are provided by ANZ, BNZ, CBA and Westpac. Facility A is a revolving facility of a long

term nature and expires 4 May 2020. Facility B is a revolving facility of a long term nature and expires 4 May 2021.

After taking into account the impact of current interest rate swaps, the blended interest rate as at 31 December 2016 for the drawn down borrowings

was 5.24% (31 December 2015: 5.71%).

(iii) Security

The facility is secured by way of a security trust deed and registered mortgage security which is required to be provided over Group properties with

current valuations of at least $750,000,000. In addition to this, the facility agreement contains a negative pledge. The Company and PFI No. 1 are

guarantors to the facility. As at 31 December 2016, investment properties totalling $1,059,575,000 (31 December 2015: $968,115,000) were

mortgaged as security for the Group’s borrowings.

Recognition and Measurement

The Group is exposed to changes in interest rates and uses derivative financial instruments, principally interest rate swaps, to mitigate this risk. The

Group does not apply hedge accounting. Derivative financial instruments are entered into to economically hedge the risk exposure.

Such derivative financial instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered into and are

subsequently re-measured to fair value at each reporting date. Transaction costs are expensed on initial recognition and recognised in the

Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income. The fair value of derivative financial instruments is based on valuations prepared by independent

treasury advisers and is the estimated amount that the Group would receive or pay to terminate the derivative contract at reporting date, taking into

account current interest rates and creditworthiness of the derivative contract counterparties.

Key estimates and assumptions: Derivatives

The fair value of derivative financial instruments are determined from valuations prepared by independent treasury advisers using Level 2 valuation

techniques (2015: Level 2). These are based on the present value of estimated future cash flows accounting for the terms and maturity of each

contract and the current market interest rates at reporting date. Fair values also reflect the current creditworthiness of the derivative counterparty.

These values are verified against valuations prepared by the respective counterparties. The valuations were based on market rates at 31 December

2016 of between 2.00% (31 December 2015: 2.75%) for the 90 day BKBM and 3.49% (31 December 2015: 3.75%) for the 10 year swap rate. There

were no changes to these valuation techniques during the period.

4. INVESTOR RETURNS AND INVESTMENT METRICS

IN THIS SECTION

This section shows the relationship between the Group's accounting profit and dividends paid. It also summarises the earnings per share and net

tangible assets per share which are common investment metrics.

4.1. Relationship of total comprehensive income to dividends paid

The Group’s dividend policy is to distribute between 95% to 100% of its annual distributable profit, subject to the approval of the Board of Directors.

This can be increased to above 100% should management performance fees be earned in any given period.

Distributable profit is a non-GAAP measure determined as total comprehensive income for the period (as determined in accordance with NZ IFRS for

the period) adjusted for fair value gains or losses on investment properties, material damage insurance income, gains or losses on disposal of

investment properties (net of tax on depreciation claw-back), fair value gains or losses on derivative financial instruments, deferred tax, additional

revenue booked as a result of fixed rental review accounting entries and other one off items.

In the prior year, the definition of distributable profit included an additional adjustment for management performance fees net of tax. Applying the

previous definition the pay-out ratio for the year ended 31 December 2016 is 93% (2015: 100%). The table below shows the current policy calculation.

Imputation credits attached to dividends paid (7,685) (6,789)

Closing balance available to shareholders for use in subsequent periods 2,257 1,507

Recognition and Measurement

The Company and Group are a listed Portfolio Investment Entity (PIE) for the purposes of the Income Tax Act 2007. Tax is accounted for on a

consolidated Group basis and the Group is required to pay tax to the Inland Revenue as required by the Income Tax Act 2007. Income tax expense

comprises current and deferred tax and is recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income for the year.

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and

any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years. Deferred tax is provided for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of

assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes.

Deferred tax is recognised on all temporary differences, including:

• The tax liability arising from accumulated depreciation claimed on investment properties, where applicable;

• The tax asset arising from the allowance for impairment;

• The tax liability arising from certain prepayments and other assets; and

• The tax asset / liability arising from the unrealised gains / losses on the revaluation of interest rate swaps.

Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to the temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have

been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date. Deferred tax is not recognised for:

• Temporary differences on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither

accounting nor taxable profit or loss;

• Temporary differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future;

and

• Taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income

taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different entities, but they intend to settle current tax assets and liabilities on

a net basis.

A deferred tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which temporary differences can

be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax

benefit will be realised.

Additional income tax arising from distribution of dividends is recognised at the same time as the liability to pay the dividend is recognised.

Key estimates and assumptions: Deferred tax

Deferred tax is provided on the accumulated depreciation claimed on the building component of investment properties. Investment properties are

valued each year by independent valuers (as outlined in note 2.1). These values include an allocation of the valuation between the land and building

components. The calculation of deferred tax on depreciation recovered places reliance on the land and building split provided by the valuers.

are assessed on an ongoing basis for impairment. A provision for doubtful debts is established where there is evidence that the Group will not be able

to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivable. Those which are anticipated to be uncollectable are written off.

Statement of Financial Position.

5.5. Goodwill

ALL VALUES IN $000'S20162015

Goodwill 29,086 29,086

Recognition and Measurement

Goodwill arises on the acquisition of subsidiaries and represents the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the identifiable net

assets acquired.

Goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses. It is tested annually for impairment or more frequently if events or changes in

circumstances indicate potential impairment. An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount exceeds the estimated recoverable amount.

Impairment losses are recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.

Goodwill is allocated to the Group’s cash generating units (CGU) identified according to the lowest level at which the goodwill is monitored.

To assess whether goodwill is impaired, the carrying amount of the CGU is compared to the recoverable amount, determined based on the greater of

its value in use and its fair value less costs of disposal.

Key estimates and assumptions: Goodwill

All goodwill relates to the Property for Industry Limited CGU.

The fair value of goodwill is determined using Level 3 valuation techniques (2015: Level 3). Fair value less costs of disposal is measured by calculating

the fair value of the Property for Industry Limited CGU using a 1 day volume-weighted average share price at the reporting date, applying a control

premium and deducting costs of disposal.

As at 31 December 2016 the estimated fair value less costs of disposal of the Property for Industry Limited CGU exceeded the carrying value

(2015: nil impairment).

5.7. Financial risk management

The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: interest rate risk, credit risk, and liquidity risk. The Group’s overall risk management

strategy focuses on minimising the potential negative economic impact of unpredictable events on the Group’s financial well being.

(a) Interest rate risk

The Group’s exposure to the risk of changes in interest rates relates primarily to the Group's borrowings with a floating interest rate. The Group has

an interest rate hedging policy which has been reviewed by an external firm with expertise in this area. The policy calls for a band of the Group’s

borrowings to be at fixed interest rates, with a greater proportion of the near term to be fixed and a lesser percentage of the far dated to be fixed.

The Group uses derivative financial instruments, principally interest rate swaps, to exchange its floating short term interest rate exposure for fixed

long term interest rate exposure in accordance with its policy bands. As the Group holds derivative financial instruments, there is a risk that their fair

value will fluctuate because of underlying changes in market interest rates. This is accepted as a by-product of the Group’s interest rate hedging

policy. The fair value of derivative financial instruments is disclosed in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position (refer note 3.2).

The following sensitivity analysis shows the effect on profit before tax and equity if interest rates at balance date had been 50 basis points (0.50%)

higher or lower with all other variables held constant.

PROPERTY FOR INDUSTRY LIMITED GROUP FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2016

(b) Credit risk

Credit risk represents the risk that the counterparty to a financial instrument will fail to discharge its obligations and the Group will suffer financial

loss as a result. Financial instruments which potentially subject the Group to credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and

other assets, and interest rate swap agreements.

With respect to the credit risk arising from cash and cash equivalents, there is limited credit risk as cash is deposited with ANZ Bank New Zealand

Limited, a registered bank in New Zealand with a credit rating of AA– (Standard & Poor's).

With respect to the credit risk arising from accounts receivable, the Group only enters into lease arrangements over its investment properties with

parties whom the Group assesses to be creditworthy. It is the Group’s policy to subject all potential tenants to credit verification procedures and

monitor accounts receivable balances. Credit risk does not arise on property sale proceeds to be settled as title will not transfer until settlement.

With respect to the credit risk arising from interest rate swap agreements, there is limited credit risk as all counterparties are registered banks in

New Zealand. The credit ratings of these banks are all AA– (Standard & Poor's).

The carrying amount of financial assets as per note 5.6 approximates the Groups maximum exposure to credit risk . For certain receivables the Group

holds bank guarantees, parent company guarantees or personal guarantees.

(c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will have difficulty realising assets and raising sufficient funds to satisfy commitments associated with

financial liabilities.

The Group manages its liquidity risk by ensuring that it has committed funding facilities at a minimum of 105% of the projected peak debt level over

the next twelve months (excluding business acquisitions).

The maturities of the Group’s borrowings based on the remaining period is 3.8 years (2015: 3.8 years), with all borrowings due later than one year

(2015: later than one year). Further details of the Group’s borrowings, including the maturities of the Group’s borrowings, are disclosed in note 3.1 to

the financial statements.

1 The carrying amount of derivative financial instruments shown is the net position of both derivative financial instrument assets and derivative financial instrument liabilities.

(d) Capital risk management

The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern whilst maximising the return to

shareholders through maintaining an optimal balance of debt and equity. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the

amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.

The Group's capital structure includes borrowings and shareholders equity. The Group monitors capital on the basis of the loan to value ratio and

borrowing covenant compliance. The loan to value ratio is calculated as borrowings divided by investment properties. The Group’s strategy is to

maintain a loan to value ratio of no more than 40%. The covenants on all borrowings require a loan to value ratio of no more than 50%.

The Group operates a Dividend Reinvestment Scheme (DRS) which allows eligible shareholders to reinvest dividends in shares. The board, at its sole

discretion, may suspend the DRS at any time and/or apply a discount to which shares are issued under the DRS.

5.8. Related party transactions

(i) Management fees

The Manager, PFIM Limited (PFIM) is entitled to be paid base management and performance fees for the provision of management and administrative

services, pursuant to a management and administrative services contract. During the year, Gregory Reidy was a Director of both PFIM and the

Company. During the year, the Group incurred management fees of $7,259,000 (2015: $7,608,000) comprising:

(a) Base management fees

The base management fee payable monthly and is calculated as one twelfth of:

• 0.725% of total tangible assets under management up to $425 million;

• 0.450% of total tangible assets under management above $425 million and below $775 million; and

• 0.350% of total tangible assets under management above $775 million.

During the year, the Group incurred base management fees totalling $5,482,000 (2015: $5,194,000) from PFIM, for the provision of management

and administrative services. As at 31 December 2016 $458,000 (2015: $446,000) was owing and included in accounts payable, accruals and

other liabilities.

(b) Performance fees

The performance fee is calculated and payable on a quarterly basis. The performance fee is calculated as 10% of the change in shareholder returns

above 10% per annum (2.5% per quarter) and under 15% per annum (3.75% per quarter). Where shareholder returns exceed 3.75% in a quarter, no

payment is due for the actual amount of the increase above 3.75% but the amount of the increase above 3.75% is carried forward and added to the

calculation of shareholder returns in the next seven quarters. However, if shareholder returns are less than 2.5% in a quarter, the deficit is carried

forward and subtracted from the calculation of shareholder returns in the next seven quarters.

During the year, the Group incurred $1,777,000 performance fees from PFIM (2015: $2,414,000). As at 31 December 2016, a deficit amount of

$4,122,000 (2015: surplus $1,988,000) has been carried forward to be included in the calculation to determine whether an performance fee is payable

in the next seven quarters. As at 31 December 2016 nil (2015: $830,000) was owing and included in accounts payable, accruals and other liabilities.

(ii) Other related party transactions

During the year, the Group incurred $12,816,440 (2015: $19,843,000) for construction and maintenance works from Haydn & Rollett Limited.

John Waller was a Director of both Haydn & Rollett Limited and the Company until he passed away on 21 September 2016. As at 31 December 2016

$311,000 (31 December 2015: $1,558,000) was owing and included in accounts payable, accruals and other liabilities.

John Waller was a Director of both Bank of New Zealand and the Company until his retirement from the Bank of New Zealand on 31 July 2015.

During the prior year, the Group incurred $4,317,000 for interest expense and bank fees from the Bank of New Zealand. As at 31 December 2015:

$630,000 was owing and included in accounts payable, accruals and other liabilities.

No related party debts have been written off or forgiven during the year (2015: nil).

During the year, fees paid to Directors of the Group were $336,000 (2015: $280,000).

As at 31 December 2016, Directors of the Company held 8,007,684 (31 December 2015: 9,153,462) shares beneficially in the Company and 371,583

(31 December 2015: 371,583) shares non-beneficially in the Company. Included in the shares beneficially owned are 3,657,121 (31 December 2015:

3,657,121) shares held in the name of PFIM.

5.9. Operating segments

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. The chief

operating decision-maker has been identified as the Board of Directors. The Group is internally reported as a single operating segment to the chief

operating decision-maker.

5.10. Capital commitments

As at 31 December 2016 the Group had capital commitments totalling $3,638,000 (31 December 2015: $12,416,000) relating to work on

investment properties.

5.11. Subsequent events

On 9 January 2017, 686 Rosebank Road, Avondale sustained fire damage. A business interruption (loss of rents claim) and a material damage claim

will be submitted in due course to recover the loss of rents (if any) and the full cost of reinstatement.

On 2 February 2017, the Group purchased an investment property located at 11 Turin Place, East Tamaki for a net purchase price of $14,220,000.

On 13 February 2017, the Directors of the Company approved the payment of a net dividend of $9,275,000 (2.0500 cents per share) to be paid on

PROPERTY FOR INDUSTRY LIMITED GROUP FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2016

Independent auditor’s report

To the shareholders of Property for Industry Limited

We have audited the consolidated financial statements which comprise:

• the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2016;

• the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the year then ended;

• the consolidated statement of changes in equity for the year then ended;

• the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended; and

• the notes to the consolidated financial statements, which include significant accounting policies.

Our opinion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements of Property for Industry Limited (the Company), including its controlled entity (the Group),

present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as at 31 December 2016, its financial performance and its cash flows for the

year then ended in accordance with New Zealand Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS) and International Financial

Reporting Standards (IFRS).

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand) (ISAs NZ) and International Standards on Auditing

(ISAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial

statements section of our report.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

We are independent of the Group in accordance with Professional and Ethical Standard 1 (Revised) Code of Ethics for Assurance Practitioners (PES 1)

issued by the New Zealand Auditing and Assurance Standards Board and the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’ Code of Ethics for

Professional Accountants (IESBA Code), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.

Our firm carries out other services for the Group in the areas of other related assurance services and the benchmarking of director remuneration. The

provision of these other services has not impaired our independence as auditor of the Group.

Our audit approach

Overview

An audit is designed to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

Overall group materiality: $2.2 million, which represents 5% of profit before tax excluding valuation movements relating to

investment properties and interest rate derivatives.

We agreed with the Audit and Risk Committee that we would report to them misstatements identified during our audit above

$0.2 million as well as misstatements below that amount that, in our view, warranted reporting for qualitative reasons.

We have two key audit matters:

• Valuation of Investment Properties; and

• Goodwill impairment assessment

Materiality

Audit scope

Key audit

PROPERTY FOR INDUSTRY LIMITED GROUP FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2016

Materiality

The scope of our audit was influenced by our application of materiality.

Based on our professional judgement, we determined certain quantitative thresholds for materiality, including the overall group materiality for the

consolidated financial statements as a whole as set out above. These, together with qualitative considerations, helped us to determine the scope of

our audit, the nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures and to evaluate the effect of misstatements, both individually and in aggregate on the

consolidated financial statements as a whole.

Overall group materiality

$2.2 million.

How we determined it

5% of profit before tax excluding valuation movements relating to investment properties and

interest rate derivatives.

Rationale for the materiality benchmark applied

We applied this benchmark because, in our view, profit before tax is the metric against which

the performance of the Group is most commonly measured.

Audit scope

We designed our audit by assessing the risks of material misstatement in the consolidated financial statements and our application of materiality. As

in all of our audits, we also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls including among other matters, consideration of whether

there was evidence of bias that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.

We tailored the scope of our audit in order to perform sufficient work to enable us to provide an opinion on the consolidated financial statements as a

whole, taking into account the structure of the Group, the accounting processes and controls, and the industry in which the Group operates.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements

of the current year. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our

opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Key audit matterHow our audit addressed the key audit matter

Valuation of Investment Properties

Refer to note 2.1 of the consolidated financial statements.

The Group’s Investment Properties at $1,083 million represent

the majority of the assets as at 31 December 2016.

The valuation of the Group’s property portfolio is inherently

subjective due to, among other factors, the individual nature of

each property, its location and the expected future rental income

for that particular property.

The existence of significant estimation uncertainty, coupled with

the fact that only a small percentage difference in individual

property valuation assumptions, when aggregated, could result in

material misstatement, is why we have given specific audit focus

and attention to this area.

The valuations were carried out by third party valuers, Colliers

International New Zealand Limited, Jones Lang Lasalle Limited,

CBRE Limited and Savills New Zealand Limited (the Valuers). The

Valuers were engaged by the Group, and performed their work in

accordance with International Valuation Standards and the

Australia and New Zealand Valuation and Property Standards.

The Valuers used by the Group are well known firms, with

experience in the market in which the Group operates and are

rotated across the portfolio on a three-yearly cycle.

In determining a property's valuation, the Valuers take into

account property specific current information such as the current

tenancy agreements and rental income earned by the asset. They

then apply assumptions in relation to capitalisation rates and

External valuations

We read and discussed the valuation reports with each of the Valuers. We

confirmed that the valuation approach for each property was in accordance

with accounting standards and suitable for use in determining the carrying

value of Investment Properties at 31 December 2016.

It was evident from our discussions with management and the Valuers and our

review of the valuation reports that close attention had been paid to each

property's individual characteristics and its overall quality, geographic location

and desirability as a whole.

We assessed the Valuers' qualifications, expertise and their objectivity and we

found no evidence to suggest that the objectivity of any Valuer in their

performance of the valuations was compromised.

On a sample basis we agreed property-specific information supplied to

the Valuers by the Group to the underlying property records. No issues

were identified.

Assumptions

Our work over the assumptions focused on the largest properties in the

portfolio and those properties where the assumptions used and/or year-on-year

fair value movement suggested a possible outlier versus market data. We also

engaged our own in-house valuation specialist to critique and challenge the

work performed and assumptions used by the Valuers. In particular, we

compared the valuation metrics used by the Valuers to recent market activity.

We concluded that the assumptions used in the valuations were supportable in

light of available market evidence.

Independent auditor’s report (continued)

29
PROPERTY FOR INDUSTRY LIMITED GROUP FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2016

Key audit matterHow our audit addressed the key audit matter

current market rent and anticipated growth, based on available

market data and transactions, to arrive at a range of valuation

outcomes, from which they derive a point estimate. Due to the

unique nature of each property, the assumptions applied take into

consideration the individual property characteristics at a granular

tenant by tenant level, as well as the qualities of the property as

a whole.

The Group has adopted the assessed values determined by

the Valuers.

Overall valuation estimates

Because of the inherent level of precision and subjectivity involved in

determining valuations for individual properties and the existence of acceptable

alternative assumptions and valuation methods, we determined a range of

values that were considered reasonable to evaluate each independent property

valuation used by management.

The valuations adopted by the Group were all, individually, within an acceptable

range. We also considered whether or not there was bias from management in

determining individual valuations and found no evidence of such bias.

Goodwill impairment assessment

Refer to note 5.5 of the consolidated financial statements.

The goodwill balance of $29 million was recognised when

Property for Industry Limited merged with Direct Property Fund

and is supported by an annual impairment review. No impairment

charge has been recorded against this balance in the current

financial year.

Management have used the fair value of the Group less costs of

disposal to support the continued carrying value for the goodwill

balance and this involves the application of subjective judgement

about the control premium. The control premium is considered to

be a key area of judgement.

We evaluated management’s process around testing for goodwill impairment

and performed the following procedures:

• Agreed the daily high and low trade prices for the Group’s shares at year

end to NZX trading data;

• With the assistance of our in-house valuation specialist, we assessed the

reasonableness of the control premium applied in the goodwill impairment

calculation as well as the costs of disposal estimate through examining

market evidence from past transactions; and

• Recalculated the Group’s net assets as at 31 December 2016.

We also performed sensitivity analysis around the control premium assumption

to ascertain the extent of change that individually would be required for the

goodwill balance to be impaired and noted goodwill would not be impaired if the

control premium applied to the calculation was decreased by 50%.

Information other than the financial statements and auditor’s report

The Directors are responsible for the annual report. The other information included in the annual report is expected to be made available to us after

the date of this auditor’s report.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information included in the annual report and we will not express any form of

assurance conclusion on the other information.

In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider

whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or

otherwise appears to be materially misstated. When we read the other information in the annual report, if we conclude that there is a material

misstatement of this other information, we are required to communicate the matter to the Directors and consider further appropriate actions.

Responsibilities of the Directors for the consolidated financial statements

The Directors are responsible, on behalf of the Company, for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in

accordance with NZ IFRS and IFRS, and for such internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated

financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the Directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern,

disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Directors either intend to

liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements, as a whole, are free from material

misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of

assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs NZ and ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it

exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to

influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located at the External Reporting Board’s website at:

https://xrb.govt.nz/Site/Auditing_Assurance_Standards/Current_Standards/Page1.aspx

NZX listed industrial property landlord Property for Industry Limited (PFI, the company) today announced record

results for the year ended 31 December 2016.


“Persistence and patience” is PFI Chairman Peter Masfen’s summary of 2016. “We’ve maintained our focus on

industrial property, concentrated on extracting value from strong Auckland demand, and watched and waited for

favourable investment opportunities. A record profit, but— more importantly— another year of PFI delivering on its

promise: consistent, long-term performance and strong, stable returns.”


Financial performance (refer appendix 1)

Operating revenues for the year increased by $4.2 million or 6.2% over the prior year to $71.1 million, as increases

due to acquisitions ($2.0 million), completed developments and rentalised capital expenditure ($1.4 million) and

positive leasing activity ($1.3 million) were partially offset by decreases due to disposals ($0.5 million).


Operating expenses for the year of $28.0 million were down $2.4 million or 7.9%. A reduction in interest expense

and bank fees of $1.6 million, driven by a reduction in the weighted average cost of debt of almost 50 basis points,

was responsible for the majority of this reduction, but reductions in non-recoverable property costs (decrease of $0.5

million) and management fees (decrease of $0.3 million) also contributed. As a result of these decreases, the ratio

of operating expenses to operating revenues reduced to 39.3% from 45.4%.


PFI’s effective current tax rate for the year, being the ratio of current taxation to operating earnings, remained static

at 19.8% (2015: 19.6%).


Non-operating income and expenses, which, for the most part, comprised an $88.2 million fair value gain on

investment properties, were more than double the amount in prior year. After allowing for these non-operating income

and expenses and deferred tax, the company made a record profit after tax of $123.4 million.

Distributable profit is a non-GAAP performance measure used by the PFI board in determining dividends to shareholders. Please refer to the

appendices for more detail as to how this measure is calculated.

2

Before management performance fees, if any.

Distributable profit and dividends (refer appendix 2)

PFI recorded distributable profit of 7.58 cents per share for the year, an increase of 0.57 cents per share or 8.1%

over the prior year (2015: 7.01 cents per share).


The PFI board has today resolved to pay a fourth quarter final cash dividend of 2.05 cents per share. The dividend

will have imputation credits of 0.50 cents per share attached and a supplementary dividend of 0.23 cents per share

will be paid to non-resident shareholders. The record date for the dividend is 27 February 2017 and the payment

date is 8 March 2017. The dividend reinvestment scheme (DRS) will not operate for this dividend.


The fourth quarter final dividend will take cash dividends for the year to 7.35 cents per share, an increase of 0.05

cents per share over the prior year, resulting in a dividend pay-out ratio of 97% (2015: 106%).


Guidance

PFI Chairman Peter Masfen said: “Looking to 2017, we expect distributable profit before management performance

fees, if any, to be between 7.50 and 7.70 cents per share, subject as always to economic conditions.”


The company has, for the first time, today released an analysis of Funds From Operations (FFO) and Adjusted Funds

From Operations (AFFO), calculated in accordance with the Property Council of Australia’s best practice guidelines

3

.

These calculations show that PFI’s recorded FFO earnings of 7.99 cents per share and AFFO earnings of 6.95 cents

per share, resulting in a FFO dividend pay-out ratio of 92% and an AFFO pay-out ratio of 106%.


Peter Masfen continued: “For some investors, FFO and AFFO earnings are important measures, as there is a belief

that they help investors better understand and compare the underlying financial performance of property entities.

Some investors also advocate for an AFFO dividend pay-out ratio that is less than 100%.


“That said, there are other investors for whom maintaining at least the current level of— or growing— cash dividends

is more desirable.


“The PFI board is looking to balance these views by maintaining or gradually increasing cash dividends, whilst at the

same time seeking to grow AFFO earnings to cover those dividends. That being the case, we expect to pay a cash

dividend of at least 7.35 cents per share in 2017.”


Balance sheet

PFI’s net tangible assets per share increased during the year by 20.2 cents per share or 14.4% to 160.7 cents per

share. The $88.2 million fair value gain on investment properties, discussed further in the portfolio performance

section below, accounted for 19.5 cents per share of the increase, with other minor items accounting for the remaining

increase of 0.7 cents per share.


Capital management

PFI carried out a number of capital management initiatives during the year to ensure that the company maintained a

strong balance sheet.


The company’s DRS operated throughout the year raising $7.5 million.


In February 2016, the company’s $375 million syndicated bank loan facility was refinanced on competitive terms.

Existing lenders ANZ, BNZ, CBA and Westpac committed two $187.5 million tranches until May 2020 and 2021,

extending the average term to expiry to 3.8 years as at end of the year. The cost of the facilities was also reduced

as part of this process.



3

FFO and AFFO are non-GAAP financial information and are common investor metrics. Please refer to the appendices for more detail as to

how this measure is calculated.


3


In addition to these facilities, PFI maintained current total hedging

4

with a notional value of $313 million at an average

rate of 4.31% for an average duration of 3.0 years. This current hedge rate is forecast to remain at low rates during

2017: based on current hedging and debt levels, an average of ~65% of the company’s debt will be hedged at an

average rate of ~4.46% (beginning of 2016: average of ~73% hedged at an average rate of 4.61%). The fair value

of this hedging – recorded on PFI’s statement of financial position – was largely unchanged at year-end (2016: liability

of $10.0 million, 2015: liability of $10.4 million) despite significant volatility during the course of the year as a result

of changes in market interest rates.


When combined with the syndicated bank loan facility PFI’s hedging provides the company with a weighted average

cost of debt (WACOD) of 5.24%

5

, which has continued to trend downwards (WACOD at December 2015: 5.71%), as

historic expensive hedging rolled off during the year and was replaced with hedging at lower rates and low BKBM

rates.


The company ended the year with adjusted gearing

6

of 30.1%. Following the settlement of 11 Turin Place, East

Tamaki (see development, divestments and acquisition below), PFI’s gearing increased slightly to 31.0%, well within

the company’s self-imposed gearing limit of 40% and bank covenants of 50%. The interest cover ratio

7

of 3.4 times

was also well within bank covenants of 2.0 times.


Portfolio performance

Portfolio snapshot as at 31 December 2016 31 December 2015

Valuation $1,083.3m $986.6m

Number of properties 83 84

Number of tenants 143 141

Contract rent $72.5 million $72.3 million

Occupancy 99.6% 99.6%

Weighted avg. lease term 4.79 years 5.18 years

Auckland property 85.3% 85.8%

Industrial property 85.5% 84.7%


Further to the announcement in December, PFI recorded an annual increase from independent valuations in the

value of its property portfolio of $88.2 million or 8.9% to $1,083.3 million. An active year of portfolio management

resulted in a number of individual property values increasing. High levels of demand for industrial property from both

investors and owner occupiers, spurred on by low interest rates, also influenced the increase. As a result of the year-

end valuation process, PFI’s passing yield firmed from 7.33% to 6.69%, and on a portfolio basis there is now no over

or under renting.


Nearly 123,000 square metres representing 18% of PFI’s existing portfolio was leased during the year to 32 new and

existing tenants for an average term of 4.9 years. More than 80% of the contract rent secured by this leasing was as

a result of lease renewals with 25 PFI tenants for an average term of 4.6 years. In addition to this, seven new leases

were secured for an average term of 6.7 years. Incentives required to attract and retain tenants have reduced

noticeably during 2016, with an average incentive of just 0.3 months per year of lease term being recorded in 2016.


Included in the aforementioned totals was the lease of 3,872 square metres to Boxkraft at PFI’s 80 Hugo Johnston

Drive property in Penrose. This property is one of the five purchased by PFI in August 2015 from Sistema Plastics,

with Boxkraft’s lease commencing shortly after Sistema’s departure in January 2017.


4

PFI defines hedging as any debt that has an interest rate secured for more than three months.

5

As at 31 December 2016. Weighted average cost of debt comprises BKBM, hedging, margins and all borrowings related fees.

6

That is, total borrowings as a percentage of the most recent independent valuation of the property portfolio, adjusted for the sale of 27

Zelanian Drive, which had been unconditionally sold as at 31 December 2016 and settled on 1 February 2017.

7

That is, the ratio of interest expense and bank fees to operating earnings excluding interest expense and bank fees.


4


The company also completed rent reviews on 84 leases during the year, resulting in an average annual uplift of 1.5%

on $41.6 million of contract rent.


Looking forward, PFI’s near term leasing outlook remains positive: at year-end the company’s portfolio was almost

100% occupied and 11.2% of contract rent is due to expire during 2017 (as at 31 December 2015: 9.3% was due to

expire during 2016). In total, ~68% of PFI’s portfolio is subject to some form of lease event during 2017, and PFI will

continue to be able to access projected market rental growth as ~35% of those lease events

8

are market related.


Development, divestments and acquisition

The company’s $25.9 million development of four pre-leased bulk store facilities at 124 Hewletts Road in Mount

Maunganui, was completed in June 2016 ahead of schedule and under budget. A new $1.9 million warehouse at 54

Carbine Road & 6a Donnor Place, Mount Wellington was also completed during the first half of the year, with tenant

commitment secured during the build process.


The sale of PFI’s non-core property at 85 Cavendish Drive, Manukau, settled in February 2016, with the funds

realised from that sale being reinvested into the aforementioned developments. In December 2016, the company

contracted to sell a property at 27 Zelanian Drive, East Tamaki, for a net sales price of $8.3 million. The sale of this

vacant property settled subsequent to year-end on 1 February 2017.


Also subsequent to year-end, on 2 February 2017, PFI purchased an industrial property at 11 Turin Place, East

Tamaki. The property is leased for 15 years to Thermakraft


a market leader in building and wall wrap, roofing

underlay, and window flashing tape


and the lease provides fixed rental growth of 4.55% every two years. The

property was purchased in a sale and lease back transaction for a net purchase price of $14.2 million, representing

a yield on purchase of 6.5%.


Market update

ANZ estimate that the New Zealand economy grew around 3.5% over 2016, and suggest that a similar pace of

annualised growth will be achieved for at least the first half of 2017. Paul Bloxham, the HSBC economist who branded

New Zealand as the "rock-star economy" of the OECD in 2014, has said he expects the country's economy to

continue to outperform many of its peers in the coming years.


This positive period of economic growth, say Colliers International, is reflected in the industrial sector. “The recurring

commentary,” they say, “is the lack of stock.” Access to suitable levels of stock remains a vital ingredient for an

expanding market and across the country demand is outweighing supply. They believe the medium-term outlook for

the industrial sector is robust.


CBRE point out that the amount of new industrial supply that entered the market in 2016 is the largest since 2007,

and they expect 2017 to be another strong year, with no significant slowdown in construction activity and with more

speculative developments in the pipeline than in recent years. Nevertheless, they say given that economic

forecasters have unanimously revised New Zealand’s growth prospects upwards, and because the industrial property

market is highly correlated with overall GDP trends, they expect strong demand for industrial space in 2017.

Consequently, they expect overall industrial vacancy to be stable in 2017 at below 2%. They also predict yields will

largely be stable in 2017.


Strategy and outlook

PFI remains focused on its strategy of investing in quality industrial property in New Zealand’s main urban centres.

The company will continue to drive shareholder returns by actively managing vacancy and upcoming lease expiries,

opportunistically pursuing both core and value-add industrial acquisitions, maximising utilisation of the portfolio and

divesting of non-core assets when value has been maximised and an opportunity to recycle capital into industrial

Being ~23% of total contract rent.

property arises.


“Commentators are very positive about New Zealand’s economic prospects for 2017,” says Peter Masfen, “but we

should not ignore their caveats: as the ANZ says, ‘the world is awash with risks and challenges’. At PFI, we’ll take it

carefully and stay focused on the long-term. That is the key to successful investing.”
