Precinct Properties New Zealand Limited (Precinct) (NZX: PCT) reported its financial results for

the 12 months ended 30 June 2018 today, with net profit after tax (NPAT) up 57.2% to $254.9

million (2017: $162.1 million). The quality of Precinct’s portfolio including its active development

pipeline has resulted in a significant portfolio revaluation gain of $208.7 million or 9.0% for the

period. This has contributed to our increase in NPAT this year.

Net operating income (distributable earnings) which adjusts for a number of non-cash items

has also increased by 2.5% to $76.6 million over the period (2017: $74.7 million). On a cents per

share (cps) basis, this equates to 6.32 cps and was in line with guidance (2017: 6.17 cps).

Revenue growth of 3.6% was primarily due to the completion of Wynyard Quarter Stage One

which was partially offset by foregone income related to development activity and 10

Brandon Street. After allowing for these transactions and activity, on a like for like basis gross

rental income was 3.7% higher than the previous period. This growth has driven an uplift in NPI

by 5.4% to $95.3 million (2017: $90.4 million).

As at 30 June 2018, Precinct’s portfolio value increased to around $2.5 billion following the

strong revaluation gain during the period. Precinct’s NTA per share was up 12.9% to $1.40

(2017: $1.24). Further financial information can be found within the 2018 Annual Report at

www.precinct.co.nz/annual-report-2018

.

Scott Pritchard, Precinct’s CEO, said “The last financial year has delivered another strong result

for our business. As we moved forward with our strategy, we progressed a number of initiatives

and achieved key milestones during the year. We have continued to take an active

management approach with both our investment portfolio and our development pipeline,

leveraging Precinct’s market position”.

Focusing on a number of capital management initiatives during the year has resulted in a

total of $250 million of capital raised through the completion of a convertible notes offer and

bond issue. Progressing the sale of a 50% interest in ANZ Centre in Auckland and the sale of

10 Brandon Street in Wellington are other examples that demonstrate Precinct's active

management approach. These assets totalled $191 million of capital recycled during the

period.

Scott Pritchard, Precinct’s CEO, said “We believe these initiatives are well suited to Precinct’s

strategy and provides the necessary available capital to match our development

commitments. The post balance date refinancing of Precinct's $760 million bank debt facility

in July 2018 further supports this by providing sufficient funding capacity to deliver these

projects”.

At year end our investment portfolio has continued to benefit from strong occupier markets.

Achieving a high overall portfolio occupancy of 99% at year end and weighted average

lease term of 8.7 years demonstrates this. Our Auckland portfolio has performed particularly

well with occupancy sitting at 100% reflecting demand for premium inner-city office space.

In Wellington, we have also reduced vacancy increasing occupancy levels through active

leasing during the year.

In both Auckland and Wellington we have successfully leased major expiries well ahead of

vacancy. At AMP Centre in Auckland, the QBE expiry has been fully leased at a premium of

17% to previous rentals. At Aon Centre in Wellington, 3 floors have been leased on the former

IAG tenancy, with two remaining floors becoming available in early 2019.

Development update

One Queen Street

Precinct has today announced it will proceed with the $298 million redevelopment at One

Queen Street (currently HSBC House). As a second stage of the Commercial Bay project, the

mixed use redevelopment of the building comprises a luxury hotel, premium office

accommodation above and a variety of unique food and beverage options including a roof-

top hospitality venue. The development will be fully integrated into the Commercial Bay retail

precinct, providing a further and complementary demand driver especially for the weekend,

evening and holiday trading periods.

The hotel will operate across 11 levels of the building and provide a total of 244 guest rooms

and suites, together with an all-day dining restaurant, meeting suites, health club and club

lounge facilities. The commercial office space will encompass 8,700 square metres across 7

levels.

The mixed use redevelopment of One Queen Street significantly enhances Commercial Bay

for retail, business and visitors alike. To have such a large area operating seamlessly under

single ownership and management provides a unique opportunity to generate strong

synergies between the uses. We believe this offering will further support the Commercial Bay

retail precinct, particularly food and beverage.

The Auckland hotel market is experiencing unprecedented levels of growth in demand, which

is forecast to persist through further growth in tourism numbers through to at least 2025. While

a number of new hotel projects have been announced in the last 24 months, the increase in

supply is expected to still fall short of demand over the short term and reach equilibrium over

the medium to long term. This is expected to underpin robust room and occupancy rates

moving forward.

Scott Pritchard, Precinct’s CEO, said “The launch of One Queen Street is further evidence of

Precinct’s role in creating a world class waterfront destination on par with other global cities.

Securing InterContinental, one of the world’s most recognised luxury hotel brands, reflects the

high demand from operators for this unparalleled waterfront location”.

The overall project is 75% precommitted with a management agreement entered into with

IHG and a signed heads of agreement

across 3,700 square metres of the office premises. The

One Queen Street development will be funded through Precinct’s existing debt facilities. On

completion, the project is expected to generate a stabilised yield on cost of 7.0% and a profit

on cost of 15%.

LT McGuinness will be the main contractor for the One Queen Street development. With a

proven record of delivering projects on time and to the highest standard, we are confident

about the delivery of this project. Construction is scheduled to commence in Q1 2020.

Precinct are pleased with LT McGuinness’s performance to date on site at Bowen Campus in

Wellington and with their work in Wynyard Quarter in Auckland.

Commercial Bay

Commercial Bay continues to achieve a good level of leasing enquiry and we have secured

a number of additional occupiers during the period, advancing retail commitments to 76%

and office commitments to 78%. With retail enquiry levels remaining elevated, we expect

leasing momentum to continue into 2019. Across the office tower, securing commitments from

a number of occupiers outside the existing portfolio is a great outcome.

Phase one of the retail remains on schedule with H&M opening its flagship 3,800 square metre

store on 30 August 2018, marking an important development milestone.

Commercial Bay remains on track to deliver a yield on cost of 7.5% and an increased profit

on cost of 41% (June 17: 31%) or $283 million. Based on current project metrics, there remains

a further $100 million of unrecognised development profit expected to materialise on

completion.

Construction has reached several key milestones during the period, with the completion of

key tower structural elements, retail construction out of the ground and completion of the first

phase of façade installation.

Up until this point, Precinct has estimated the completion programme from independent

advice. Following considerable engagement with the main contractor, Fletcher Construction,

a revised completion programme has recently been provided.

The completion programme provided by Fletcher Construction has been reviewed by

Precinct’s expert programmer, RCP, who have confirmed the revised dates are achievable,

subject to the main contractor’s performance. The revised completion dates for the

Commercial Bay retail and the new PwC office tower are September 2019 and December

2019, respectively.

Scott Pritchard, Precinct’s CEO, said “While any delay in a project is disappointing, we believe

Fletchers are maintaining a very high standard of quality during a very challenging period

within the construction industry”.

Precinct remains confident with the provisions of its construction contract, which protect

Precinct from losses due to contractor delay. Liquidated damages will effectively mitigate the

impact on Precinct from any loss of income and other costs over the delayed period.

Precinct continues to work closely with retailers at Commercial Bay to communicate the

revised occupation dates. For those occupiers coming into the new PwC office tower, all

have existing lease terms which extend beyond the revised completion dates of the office

tower.

Bowen Campus

In Wellington, construction works have continued to progress well over the last 12 months. We

have now completed the facade installation at Charles Fergusson Tower with on floor works

continuing. All works are targeted for completion late December 2018.

At Bowen State Building we have completed the majority of the structural works for the

building including the north and south shear walls. The façade is now 90% complete for the

building, installed from Level 1 to 10. On floor works are also underway to all levels.

Occupation of Bowen State Building by New Zealand Defence Force is expected in Q3 2019

.

Future opportunities

Preliminary designs for the remaining development land at Bowen Campus are being

progressed and marketing for leasing pre-commitment has been launched. With potential to

accommodate up to 20,000 square metres of commercial office space, it is considered

suitable for both Crown and corporate occupiers. The Annex Building which was previously

on the site has now been demolished.

At Wynyard Quarter with the first stage now complete, design has advanced for stages two,

three and four. Precinct is able to develop a further 30,000 square metres of office space on

the site and will draw on the land when it wishes to proceed with each stage. Precinct has

continued to engage with potential occupiers for the type of space within the Innovation

Precinct and is encouraged by the extent of ongoing interest. Precinct anticipate

commencing the second stage of the development in the next six months.

Dividend payment

Precinct shareholders will receive a fourth-quarter dividend of 1.45 cps plus imputation credits

of 0.2473 cps. Offshore investors will receive an additional supplementary dividend of 0.1122

cps to offset non-resident withholding tax (see note 2). The record date is 14 September 2018

with payment to be made on 28 September 2018.

Outlook and guidance

The long-term outlook for the Auckland market remains strong, with solid demand drivers for

city centre real estate across the office, retail, hotel and residential markets.

The office market in particular is supported by increased growth in the working age

population, with continued elevated visitor growth projected to underpin hotel demand. With

demand forecast to grow with limited supply evident, constraints in the construction market

are expected to continue placing upwards pressure on replacement costs. Similarly, outlook

for the Wellington market has significantly improved in contrast to previous years.

We are committed to our long-term strategy as city centre specialists. This strategy is

progressing well and is reflected in our strong results this year.

The Board expects full year earnings for the 2019 financial year of approximately 6.60 cps,

before performance fees and expects to pay a dividend of 6.00 cps. This represents a 3.4%

increase in dividend to shareholders.

Note 1

Net operating income is an alternative performance measure which adjusts net profit after tax for a number of non-

cash items as detailed in the reconciliation below. Precinct’s Dividend Policy is based upon net operating income. This

alternative performance measure is provided to assist investors in assessing Precinct’s performance for the year.

Note 2

A supplementary dividend is paid to non-resident shareholders to offset the amount of non-resident withholding tax

(“NRWT”) that New Zealand companies are required to deduct from dividends paid to non-resident shareholders. A

supplementary dividend is paid to ensure equitable treatment between non-resident shareholders and resident

shareholders (whose dividends are not subject to NRWT).

There’s no disadvantage to Precinct or our shareholders, and non-resident shareholders don’t get a larger cash

dividend than an equivalent New Zealand resident shareholder.

■Following considerable engagement with the main contractor, Fletcher Construction, a

revised completion programme has now been provided.

■The programme provided has been independently reviewed by Precinct’s expert

programmer, RCP.

–Confirmed revised dates are achievable, subject to main contractor’s performance

■Revised completion dates:

–Commercial Bay retail September 2019

–New PwC TowerDecember 2019

■Precinct remains confident with the provisions of its construction contract, which protect

Precinct from losses due to contractor delay.

–Liquidated damages will effectively mitigate the impact on Precinct from any loss of

income and other costs over the delay period.

■Precinct continue to work closely with retailers and occupiers to communicate the revised

occupation dates.

FOCUSED STRATEGY

The 2018 financial year has been both an active and defining

period for Precinct. Significant progress has been made on our

major initiatives and we have seen the business take substantial

steps forward.

The quality of Precinct’s portfolio including its active

development pipeline has resulted in a significant portfolio

revaluation gain of $208.7 million or 9.0% for the period,

increasing the value of Precinct’s portfolio to around $2.5 billion.

This has contributed to a net profit after tax of $254.9 million, up

57.2%. Net operating income also increased by 2.5% to

$76.6 million or 6.32 cents per share (cps). This was in line with

guidance. Full year dividend to shareholders was 5.80 cps,

representing a 3.6% increase.

We are pleased with our strong result this year and the

performance achieved across our business. On behalf of the

Board of Precinct, we are pleased to present investors with our

2018 Annual Report.

As we continue to focus on our long-term strategy as city centre

specialists, we are particularly pleased with the strong position

we are in. Our FY18 results reflect continued growth in earnings

as well as the targeted lift in portfolio quality being achieved.

The Board continually focuses on Precinct's strategy, while

monitoring risk and applying sound capital management.

Focusing on a number of capital management initiatives during

the year has resulted in a total of $250 million of capital raised

through the completion of a convertible notes offer and a bond

issue. We believe these initiatives are well suited to Precinct’s

strategy and provides the necessary available capital to match

our development commitments.

The recent post balance date refinancing of Precinct's

$760 million bank debt facility in July 2018 further supports our

committed developments by providing sufficient funding

capacity to deliver these projects.

Precinct has circa $300 million of development spend remaining.

With a number of development milestones reached during the

year, the Board is very pleased with the progress achieved to

date on each of our projects.


FY18 HAS BEEN A PERIOD OF INTENSE

FOCUS ON DELIVERY OF OUR MAJOR

DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS. WE ARE

COMMITTED TO ENSURING THEIR

SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION.”

CHAIRMAN'S REPORT

INCREASED DISCLOSURE

This year Precinct has prepared its annual report in accordance

with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Standards. We are

pleased with the progress made over the year. As part of this

year’s annual report we have taken a more robust approach in

expanding our reporting on sustainability which encompasses

Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) factors material to

Precinct. By reporting to GRI Standards we are providing greater

clarity and accountability around our material sustainability

issues including how we are responding to them.

Notable achievements during the year include:

• Establishing a Sustainability Committee to act as custodian for

Precinct’s sustainability strategy

• Becoming a member of and participating in the Global Real

Estate Sustainability Benchmark (GRESB), the global ESG

benchmark for real estate

• Disclosing a written Diversity and Inclusion policy for Precinct

• Progressing initiatives to increase overall client wellbeing

• Achieving a 5 stars NABERSNZ Energy Base Building rating at

the Mason Bros. building, demonstrating market leading

performance in energy efficiency

• Improving electricity and gas use efficiency at a portfolio

level in both Auckland and Wellington.

The Board is focused on our material ESG issues, which extends

beyond reporting on them. We recognise that sustainability is an

important part of Precinct's business activities. It's strategy has

therefore been designed in parallel with Precinct's broader

business strategy.

You are welcome to read more about Precinct's material issues

in detail on pages 22 to 34.

FY19 dividend guidance

Our next Annual General Meeting of Shareholders is

scheduled to be held on 1 November 2018. We encourage

all shareholders to attend. It is a great forum for us to meet

with you, our shareholders, to discuss these results and

answer any questions during the meeting that you may

have.

More details on the meeting including time and venue will

be provided to shareholders in the coming months.

GOVERNANCE

The Board of Precinct understands the importance of its role and

responsibilities. It is something we take very seriously. We are

committed to reviewing, monitoring and assessing the overall

strategy and activities across the business, including the

developments currently underway. We significantly enhanced

our corporate governance when we corporatised in 2011 and

have continued to refine our ongoing strategy in order to grow

shareholder value.

Ensuring Precinct maintains best practice governance structures

and the highest ethical standards are key objectives for Precinct

and the Board. In accordance with best practice, Precinct

reviewed its corporate governance manual during the year. It

incorporates (to the extent relevant) the NZX listing rules relating

to corporate governance and the NZX Corporate Governance

Code 2017 and Guidelines.

We recognise an effective board comprises a balance of

independence, skills, knowledge, experience and perspectives

amongst directors. We are a member of Diversity Works New

Zealand and proud to support The Women’s Empowerment

Principles, a joint initiative of the UN Global Compact and UN

Women. The Board continues to assess the diversity of the Board

and Officers of Precinct. We have set clear targets to improve

gender diversity across Precinct and will report on this annually.

You can find out more about our diversity and inclusion policy in

the corporate governance section of this annual report.

OUTLOOK AND DIVIDEND GUIDANCE

The Board expects full year earnings for the 2019 financial year of

approximately 6.60 cps, before performance fees and expects

to pay a dividend of 6.00 cps. This represents a 3.4% increase in

dividend to shareholders.

With supportive capital markets and both occupier and

investment markets remaining strong, we believe Precinct is well

positioned to advance our city centre strategy and increase

shareholder value in 2019 and beyond. We have a clear strategy

with a targeted approach to our markets and remain confident

about both the New Zealand economy and the performance of

our investment and development portfolio.

Thank you to my Board colleagues and Management for their

support, the Precinct team for their on-going work during

another successful year, and also you, our shareholders, for your

continued investment in our business. We look forward to

delivering more strong results as we execute our long-term

strategy for continued future growth.

DELIVERING RESULTS

The last financial year has delivered another strong result for our

business. As we moved forward with our strategy, we progressed

a number of initiatives and achieved key milestones during the

year. We have continued to take an active management

approach with both our investment portfolio and our

development pipeline, leveraging Precinct’s market position.

Major milestones achieved during the year include:

• $191 million of capital recycled through asset sales

1

• $250 million non bank funding secured

• $760 million bank debt facility refinanced (July 2018)

• 100% portfolio occupancy in Auckland

• Uplift in Commercial Bay forecast value on completion to just

over $1 billion

• Development commitment of One Queen Street (Aug 2018).

Precinct’s financial performance highlights for FY18 include:

• Net profit of $254.9 million

• 3.6% increase in dividend to shareholders

• Revaluation gain of $208.7 million

• Gearing of 25.0%.

Further details on this year’s financial performance is provided in

the results overview section on page 08.

Capital recycling through asset sales during the year

CAPITAL RECYCLING

Progressing the sale of a 50% interest in ANZ Centre in Auckland

and the sale of 10 Brandon Street in Wellington are further

examples that demonstrate Precinct's active management

approach.

The sale of the 50% interest in ANZ Centre was to a fund

controlled by Invesco for $181 million which is consistent with the

30 June 2018 independent valuation and reflects a 12% premium

to 30 June 2017 valuation on a pro-rata basis. Acquired by

Precinct in 1997, ANZ Centre has performed well since it became

part of the portfolio generating a property level IRR of 9.0%.

Precinct completed a $76 million upgrade in 2013. We remain

committed to maintaining this building as one of New Zealand’s

premium office towers through our 50% stake and ongoing

management.

These sales are in line with our business strategy and enable

Precinct to recycle capital into higher yielding development

opportunities. The ANZ sale transaction remains subject to

Overseas Investment Office approval and the sale of 10 Brandon

Street for $10.2 million is conditional on ground lessor approvals

and is due to settle in August 2018.

1 Sale of 10 Brandon Street and 50% interest in ANZ Centre are conditional. Refer

to Note 8 in the Notes to the Financial Statements for more detail.

DEVELOPMENT UPDATE

Over the past 12 months, the Board and Management of

Precinct have considered a range of development opportunities

for One Queen Street in Auckland. Post balance date, Precinct

announced that it will proceed with the $298 million

redevelopment at One Queen Street (currently HSBC House). As

a second stage of the Commercial Bay project, the mixed use

redevelopment of the building comprises a luxury hotel, premium

office accommodation above and a variety of unique food and

beverage options including a roof-top hospitality venue.

Construction is scheduled to commence in 2020.

Commercial Bay continues to achieve a good level of leasing

enquiry and we have secured a number of additional occupiers

during the period, advancing retail commitments to 76% and

office commitments to 78%.

Phase one of the retail remains on schedule with H&M opening

its flagship 3,800 square metre (sqm) store on 30 August 2018,

marking an important development milestone.

Commercial Bay remains on track to deliver a yield on cost of

7.5% and an increased profit on cost of 41% (June 17: 31%) or

$283 million. Based on current project metrics, there remains a

further $100 million of unrecognised development profit

expected to materialise on completion.

Construction has reached several key milestones during the

period, with the completion of key tower structural elements,

retail construction out of the ground and completion of the first

phase of façade installation.

Up until this point, Precinct has estimated the completion

programme from independent advice. Following considerable

engagement with the main contractor, Fletcher Construction, a

revised completion programme has recently been provided.

The completion programme provided by Fletcher Construction

has been reviewed by Precinct’s expert programmer, RCP, who

have confirmed the revised dates are achievable, subject to the

main contractor’s performance. The revised completion dates

for the Commercial Bay retail and the new PwC office tower are

September 2019 and December 2019, respectively.

Precinct remains confident with the provisions of its construction

contract, which protect Precinct from losses due to contractor

delay. Liquidated damages will effectively mitigate the impact

on Precinct from any loss of income and other costs over the

delayed period.

Precinct continues to work closely with retailers at Commercial

Bay to communicate the revised occupation dates. For those

occupiers coming into the new PwC office tower, all have

existing lease terms which extend beyond the revised

completion dates of the office tower.

In Wellington, construction works have continued to progress at

Bowen Campus with the façade installation at Charles Fergusson

Tower now complete. At Bowen State Building we have

completed the majority of the structural works for the building

and the façade is now 90% complete.

07
MANAGEMENT REPORT

INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO

At year end our investment portfolio has continued to benefit

from strong occupier markets. Achieving a high portfolio

occupancy of 99% at year end and a weighted average lease

term (WALT) of 8.7 years demonstrates this.

Our Auckland portfolio has performed well with occupancy

sitting at 100% reflecting demand for premium inner-city office

space. A key focus during the year has been to reduce portfolio

vacancy. We successfully leased all of the existing PwC Tower

and reduced vacancy exposure at HSBC House and ANZ Centre

through redevelopment and capital transactions. In Wellington,

we have also reduced vacancy increasing occupancy levels

through active leasing during the year.

OUTLOOK

Following the successful execution of our capital management

initiatives over the past 12 months, we have a strong balance

sheet to take our business forward. We are confident Precinct is

well positioned relative to our markets. Our portfolio is

demonstrating the benefits of owning premium quality real

estate in strategic locations.

The long-term outlook for the Auckland market remains strong,

with solid demand drivers for city centre real estate across the

office, retail, hotel and residential markets.

The office market in particular is supported by increased growth

in the working age population, with continued elevated visitor

growth projected to underpin hotel demand. Similarly, outlook

for the Wellington market has significantly improved in contrast

to previous years.

We are committed to our long-term strategy as city centre

specialists. This strategy is progressing well and is reflected in our

strong results this year.

RESULTS OVERVIEW

PRECINCT PROPERTIES NEW ZEALAND LIMITED

ANNUAL REPORT 2018

FY18 RESULTS

High occupancy levels and a significant revaluation gain of

$208.7 million recorded during the period contributed to net

profit after tax increasing to $254.9 million (June 2017:

$162.1 million).

Net operating income, which adjusts for a number of non-cash

items, was up 2.5% to $76.6 million or 6.32 cps, and was in line

with guidance (June 2017: $74.7 million).

Dividends paid and attributed to the 2018 financial year totalled

5.80 cps. The dividend paid matched adjusted funds from

operations (AFFO) of 5.80 cps which is considered to align with

international 'best practice' for real estate entities.

Funds from operations (FFO)

FFO and AFFO are measures used by real estate entities to

describe the underlying performance from their operations.

Aligning dividends with AFFO is generally considered to be

best practice for real estate entities. FFO and AFFO are

defined in more detail on page 44.

FFO for the year increased $2.5 million to $83.4 million (June

2017: $80.9 million) or 6.89 cps. This represented an FFO

payout ratio of 84%. AFFO for the year was $70.2 million, or

5.80 cps, matching the dividend paid.

PRECINCT'S AFFO PAYOUT RATIO OVER THE PAST 5 YEARS HAS

AVERAGED 101%

Gross rental revenue was $130.7 million, 3.6% higher than the

previous year (June 2017: $126.2 million). This increase was

primarily due to the completion of Wynyard Quarter Stage One

which was partially offset by foregone income related to

development activity and 10 Brandon Street. On a like for like

basis gross rental income was 3.7% higher than the previous

period.

Property expenses of $35.4 million were consistent with the

previous period (June 2017: $35.8 million).

Net property income increased to $95.3 million (June 2017:

$90.4 million). After adjusting for development projects and non

recoverable earthquake costs, like for like income growth was

3.0% higher than the previous comparable period. The Auckland

portfolio saw an increase of 3.1% and Wellington achieved an

uplift of 2.9%.

Development spend at Bowen Campus and Commercial Bay

saw total borrowings increase in the period resulting in a

corresponding lift in interest expense. This was offset by

capitalised interest associated with developments and interest

income, which resulted in net expense for the period of

$2.2 million (June 2017: $3.4 million).

Precinct recorded a 16.3% shareholder total return for the year to

30 June 2018. This outperformed the benchmark New Zealand

listed property sector return (excluding Precinct) of 8.9%. Due to

previous under performance and in line with the agreed process

for recognising outperformance of the market no performance

management fees were paid.

Overall indirect expenses were $10.2 million, 4.1% higher than the

previous period reflecting an increase in management fees paid

following the completion of Wynyard Stage One.

Current tax expense increased by $3.8 million to $6.3 million

(June 2017: $2.5 million). This was a result of a lower level of

deductible leasing costs and the disposal of depreciable assets

at Bowen Campus in the 2017 financial year.

The fair value loss in financial instruments of $11.1 million

compared with a gain of $11.8 million the previous year. The loss

resulted from a fall in market interest rates during 2018.

The valuation gain of $208.7 million (2017: $77.5 million) reflected

valuations increasing by $108.4 million across Precinct's

investment portfolio and recording a $100.3 million gain on its

current development projects due to development profit

recognition and capitalisation rate firming. On a like for like basis,

Auckland asset valuations increased by 9.6% and Wellington has

remained largely unchanged. The increase recorded in

Auckland was mainly attributable to a firming in capitalisation

rates supported by recent asset sales evidence, together with

market rental growth. In Wellington, while rentals and

capitalisation rates have further improved over the last 12

months, this has been offset by additional operating expenses,

mainly insurance premiums and rates.

The deferred tax expense of $17.0 million related primarily to a

change in estimate for determining the provision for deferred tax

consequences of a sale of investment property at market value.

The provision now better reflects the net sale price allocation

process that occurs at the point of sale.

The strong valuation gain increased Precinct’s portfolio value to

$2.5 billion (June 2017: $2.04 billion) and was the key contributor

for the 16 cps uplift in Precinct’s NTA per share to $1.40 (June

2017: $1.24).

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

At balance date total borrowings (including convertible notes)

increased to $751.4 million (June 2017: $452.1 million). The

increase related to the development spend at Bowen Campus

and Commercial Bay. Gearing as measured under borrower

covenants, which disregards subordinated debt as at 30 June

2018 is 25.0% (June 2017: 25.1%).

A key focus of Precinct's capital management approach has

been to continue to diversify its funding sources that are well

suited to its current strategy and opportunities. As at 30 June

2018, 56% of drawn debt was sourced from non bank sources.

During the period, a total of $250 million of non bank funding has

been secured. This includes $150 million of four-year, fixed-rate

subordinated convertible notes and $100 million of senior

secured seven year bonds. Both issues have further strengthened

Precinct's capital management position. In particular, the

convertible notes provide a flexible funding option giving

Precinct the available capital to match development

commitments while ensuring that earnings are not diluted in the

short term.

Post balance date, Precinct successfully refinanced its

$760 million bank debt facility which was due to expire in

November 2020. The refinance extends $460 million of the

existing facilities in two new tranches expiring in July 2022 and

July 2023, with the balance of the facility expiring in November

2020.

The refinance in July 2018 extends the tenor of the existing

facilities, reducing refinancing risk and improves the weighted

average term to expiry out from 3.3 years at 30 June 2018 to over

4 years (June 2017: 4.0 years). Funding continues to be provided

by Precinct’s existing lenders ANZ, BNZ, CBA, HSBC and Westpac.

Precinct has total debt facilities of $1.18 billion and remains

within its borrowing covenants and is in a strong financial position

with sufficient funding capacity to deliver its committed

developments.

As at 30 June 2018, Precinct was 85% hedged through the use of

interest rate swaps (June 2017: 65%). Average hedging for the

2019 financial year will be around 80% as forward swaps

RESULTS OVERVIEW

OPERATIONAL UPDATE

Our investment portfolio has continued to perform well over the

last financial year and we have achieved strong metrics as a

result. At 30 June 2018, overall portfolio occupancy was 99%

(June 2017: 100%) and WALT was maintained at 8.7 years (June

2017: 8.7 years).

Positive leasing momentum has continued with a total of 41

leasing transactions completed, encompassing over 21,900 sqm

and 598 car parks on a WALT of 6.1 years. Overall leasing

transactions were secured at a 1.4% premium to valuation

rentals.

In Auckland, we achieved 100% occupancy. Leasing highlights

include signing a 7 year lease with the New Zealand Transport

Agency at the AMP Centre, totalling around 2,200 sqm.

In Wellington, the carparking facilities for both Mayfair House and

Dimension Data House secured new leases with Care Park and

Wilson Parking. This represents a total of 458 carparks and was

secured on a 6.7 year WALT.

In the period, Precinct settled 13,000 sqm of market rent reviews

at a 3.3% premium to the 30 June 2017 valuation rentals. In total,

including structured rent reviews, Precinct settled 85,600 sqm of

reviews at a 3.9% premium to previous contract rental and 3.5%

premium to 2017 valuations.

The portfolio is now under-rented by 6.4% (June 2017: 4.7% under-

rented). We expect to reduce the remaining vacant office

space in the portfolio and achieve further market rental growth

going forward.

Generator, Precinct’s 50% owned co-working space provider has

achieved occupancy of 73%, well above expectations. With 75%

(9,500 sqm) of its space launched during the year, the business

recorded a loss, as anticipated for this trading-up period. With

900 Generator members and the launch of its new innovation

focused co-working space at GridAKL in Wynyard Quarter and

premium site at Britomart Place, we are seeing continued growth

across this investment.

Generator, Britomart Place at 11 Britomart Place, Takutai Square

is the newest site to join Generator’s co-working offering and

brings the total square metres managed by Generator to 12,000

sqm across three locations.

OUR MARKETS

AUCKLAND CBD

CBD Office

Latest JLL Research reported prime grade (premium plus A Grade) vacancy rates increased marginally to 5.3% as at 30 June 2018

(June 2017: 4.8%) with prime stock increasing by approximately 38,900 sqm, largely in the Viaduct and Wynyard precinct, following

completion of developments such as 46 Sale Street and 12 Madden Street, which are offset by strong net absorption totalling 33,792

sqm over the 12 month period. Over the same period, rents in both the premium and A Grade markets have further risen, albeit growth

rates have slowed. Looking ahead, continued economic growth and growing employment are anticipated to drive both occupier

demand for office space and underpin rental rates despite new supply being added to the market over the short term.

CBD Retail

Robust retail expenditure and a lack of quality retail premises have resulted in a tightening in the CBD retail market. JLL Research has

vacancy reducing to 2.1% as at 30 June 2018 (June 2017: 2.6%) and virtually no vacant premises available at the waterfront end of

Queen Street and within Britomart. While online retail spend is anticipated to grow at a faster pace than expenditure at physical stores,

demand for retail premises are expected to prevail based on the positive outlook for fundamentals such as net migration, inbound

tourism arrivals and growth in the CBD resident and worker populations.

WELLINGTON CBD

CBD Office

The Wellington CBD office market has now largely recovered to post-quake levels in terms of the overall stock in operation.

Notwithstanding this, occupier demand continues to remain near record highs with prime vacancy at 1.0% as at 30 June 2018 (June

2017: 1.2%) with overall vacancy at 5.4% (June 2017: 5.3%) across the wider CBD according to JLL Research. While some developers

have delivered a supply response subsequent to the Kaikoura earthquake, net absorption and rental growth is anticipated to remain

strong given the current supply pipeline is largely pre-committed together with there being a number of government agencies actively

seeking additional space.

ONE QUEEN STREET

Post balance date, Precinct announced that it will proceed with

the $298 million redevelopment of One Queen Street (currently

HSBC House). As a second stage of the Commercial Bay project,

the mixed use redevelopment of the building comprises a luxury

hotel, premium office accommodation above and a variety of

unique food and beverage options including a roof-top

hospitality venue.

The development will be fully integrated into the Commercial

Bay retail precinct, providing a further and complementary

demand driver especially for the weekend, evening and holiday

trading periods. The hotel will operate across 11 levels of the

building and provide a total 244 guest rooms and suites, together

with an all-day dining restaurant, meeting suites, health club and

club lounge facilities. The commercial office space will

encompass 8,700 sqm across 7 levels.

The mixed use redevelopment of One Queen Street will

significantly enhance Commercial Bay for retail, business and

visitors alike. To have such a large area operating seamlessly

under single ownership and management provides a unique

opportunity to generate strong synergies between the uses. We

believe this offering will further support the Commercial Bay retail

precinct, particularly food and beverage.

Construction is scheduled to commence in H1 2020. The hotel is

expected to open in early 2022 and the commercial office and

hospitality space to open in mid 2022.

LT McGuinness will be the main contractor for the One Queen

Street development. With a proven record of delivering projects

on time and to the highest standard, we are confident about the

delivery of this project. We are pleased with their performance to

date on site at Bowen Campus in Wellington and with their work

in Wynyard Quarter in Auckland.

Warren and Mahoney are the lead architect on this project with

interior design to be completed by international design firm,

AvroKO.

Level 1 and 2 of One Queen Street are currently being

integrated seamlessly into Commercial Bay stage one forming

the food and beverage offering, Harbour Eats, and will open as

part of Commercial Bay in 2019.

The project will be funded through Precinct’s existing debt

facilities. On completion, the project is expected to generate a

stabilised yield on cost of 7.0% and a profit on cost of 15%.

INTERCONTINENTAL AUCKLAND

Following a comprehensive international hotel operator

selection process, Precinct is pleased to announce the

appointment of InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) as the

hotel operator for the One Queen Street hotel under their

flagship InterContinental brand and to be known as

InterContinental Auckland.

Securing InterContinental, one of the world’s most

recognised luxury hotel brands, reflects the high demand

from operators for this unparallelled waterfront location.

HIGHLIGHTS TO DATE:

• Overall project is 75% precommitted.

• Commitment includes a signed heads of agreement

HOTEL MARKET OVERVIEW

Dean Humphries, National Director Hotels, Colliers International

The Auckland hotel market is experiencing unprecedented levels of growth in demand, which is forecast to persist through further

growth in tourism numbers through to at least 2025. While a number of new hotel projects have been announced in the last 24 months,

the increase in supply is expected to still fall short of demand over the short term and reach equilibrium over the medium to long term.

This is expected to underpin robust room and occupancy rates moving forward.

• According to MBIE, annual visitor arrivals are projected to grow 4.6% per annum reaching 5.1 million by 2024, up 37% from 3.7 million

in 2017.

• Based on current forecasts, the Auckland hotel market will likely require up to circa 4,000 new hotel rooms by 2025 to cater for

current demand projections. Based on recent supply estimates, these rooms should be delivered to meet this unprecedented

demand. However a constrained construction sector could well see some of these projects being deferred which will then add

further pressure to existing hotel stock.

• The Auckland hotel sector has significantly outperformed other commercial property sectors post-GFC, and has according to

market research achieved the second highest ADR growth in Asia Pacific since 2011, second only to Osaka where occupancy

consistently reached 90 percent over the past three years.

In March of this year, Precinct also welcomed its first wave of

fashion store clients, bringing together a carefully curated mix of

established local favourites and first-to-market global brands.

Furla, Superette, Hershel Supply Co, and a Rodd & Gunn

bespoke Lodge Bar and fashion concept will all be landmark

stores at Commercial Bay in 2019.

We expect to announce more leading local and international

fashion retailers in the coming months who remain confidential

at this stage.

H&M remains on schedule to be the first Commercial Bay

flagship store to open on 30 August 2018 encompassing 3,800

sqm over four levels. Located on the corner of Customs and

Queen Streets the four-level shop will be the biggest H&M to

date and feature women’s, men’s, kid's and the homeware

collection.

Office commitments has also increased progressing to 78% (June

2017: 66%). Securing commitments from a number of occupiers

outside of the existing portfolio is a great outcome. New clients

to the office tower include Marsh and expanded offer to IWG

under their Spaces brand.

During the period the Commercial Bay project recorded a

significant uplift of $70 million, increasing the value on

completion to just over $1.0 billion following the 30 June 2018

valuation update (June 2017: $941 million). Based on current

project metrics there remains a further $100 million of

unrecognised development profit expected to materialise on

completion.

Construction is progressing with the construction of the City Rail

Link tunnels approximately 75% complete. The primary steel for

the office tower is now erected to level 28 with a further jump

sequence to level 31 commencing. Floor slabs have been fully

poured through to level 16 and part poured on levels 17 to 19.

The retail centre podia is now rapidly forming across the site with

the basement substantially complete and the retail buildings

now reaching level 1 on parts of the site.

Works are well advanced on the lower levels of 1 Queen Street

WHO WE ARE

WITH A PORTFOLIO VALUE OF OVER $2.5 BILLION, PRECINCT IS THE LARGEST OWNER OF PREMIUM INNER-CITY

BUSINESS SPACE IN AUCKLAND AND WELLINGTON. WE FOCUS ON QUALITY SPACE AND QUALITY SERVICE.

Last year marked 20 years as a listed company on the New Zealand Stock Exchange for Precinct. When we first listed back in 1997, we

were a unit trust and owned just 6 properties. Today, Precinct owns 14 properties and is ranked in the NZX top 25.

We adopted our new name in 2012 to reflect our evolution as a business, and have since grown to become a city centre specialist real

estate investment company.

Precinct invests predominately in high quality strategically located city centre office, retail and leisure real estate which thrive through

co-location.

While office real estate is at the heart of Precinct’s portfolio structure, we believe in order to be a specialist in a city centre context

considering a broader mix of real estate offers greater opportunity for Precinct to create value for shareholders. This includes, from time

to time, investment in other city centre real estate including hotels, land, car park buildings, and lower quality properties where value

can be created through active management and development.

OUR APPROACH

Precinct understands that the operational aspects of its business,

as an owner, a developer and a manager of property, are

responsible for having an external impact on a number of

environmental, social and economic issues. By recognising this,

and that we operate in a changing global environment, Precinct

aims to conduct its business as a responsible corporate citizen

and therefore places great importance on operating in the most

sustainable way it can.

We want to create precincts that our clients thrive working

within, and that city centre residents, visitors and wider

communities enjoy being in. We want our office buildings to be

the preferred places to work in the Auckland and Wellington city

centres.

Our strategy is reviewed annually and continually refined. It has

evolved materially since 1997 when the company was first

established. Our current strategy provides clear direction for the

Precinct team and shareholders.

Moving to a more active management approach has resulted in

Precinct preferring to now create its own real estate which we

are seeing through its extensive development activities.

During 2017 management developed further its strategic

perspective and refined its focus into three distinct areas.

Precinct’s strategy provides a clear and targeted approach to

our markets. We are now realising the benefits of its strategic

design.

We are able to measure our progress relative to both our

strategy and to our three areas of focus, our people, our portfolio

and our developments.

PRECINCT PROPERTIES NEW ZEALAND LIMITED

ANNUAL REPORT 2018

OUR APPROACH

We have defined

sustainability

at Precinct as enabling sustainable and successful business, improving our operational performance

and incorporating sustainable design across our portfolio of properties.

At the heart of Precinct is a business model that is designed to generate, and regenerate sustainable value. We are city centre

specialists dedicated to enabling sustainable and successful businesses. This means we want to create value through designing and

delivering exceptional spaces for our clients and communities, in which they can thrive.

In line with our long-term view we are seeking to deepen our understanding of sustainability and future-proof our business. We have

undertaken a number of initiatives in the last year to strengthen how we define sustainability and clarify the related material risks and

opportunities. As part of this year’s annual report, we are presenting shareholders with Precinct’s material sustainability issues and how

we are responding to them. We have made some notable achievements and also identified areas where we can further improve.

Our focus on material issues extends beyond reporting on them. We are developing plans of action with targets to achieve our goal of

creating sustainable value through city centre real estate. Our sustainability committee leads this work and includes staff from key roles

across the business.

We are learning what the core drivers of sustainability are as we progress. Three key themes that have emerged are industry leadership

in sustainable design, interdependence between the functions of Precinct’s assets (e.g. commercial office space, leisure, retail,

community and tourism) and strengthening the communities and businesses of the cities in which Precinct operates.

Our 2018 annual report has been prepared in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Standards (core option). The GRI

Standards are the world’s most widely used sustainability reporting standard.

“AT THE HEART OF PRECINCT IS A BUSINESS MODEL THAT IS DESIGNED TO GENERATE,

AND REGENERATE SUSTAINABLE VALUE.”

>> Scott Pritchard, CEO.

OUR SUSTAINABILITY FRAMEWORKOUR OPERATING CONTEXT

As an owner, a developer and a manager of property, Precinct

generates environmental, social and economic value, including

external impacts. Like many other industries, the architecture,

building and real estate sectors are exploring ways to create a

sustainable future.

Globally the built environment accounts for 30-40% of

greenhouse gas emissions, consumes 40% of the worlds raw

materials and potable water and generates 35-40% of global

energy demand

.

At a national level, buildings in New Zealand are now considered

to be a significantly higher proportion of the country’s carbon

footprint than was previously thought - up to 20% according to a

recent report

4

.

Fundamentally, and at a very local and personal level, we spend

the majority of our lives in the built environment. The spaces we

live, work, shop and recreate in shape the way we think, interact

and ultimately, they influence the quality of our lives.

SUSTAINABILTY AT PRECINCT

SUSTAINABILITY PERFORMANCE BENCHMARKS

Over the past few years a number of local and international sustainability certifications and standards have been introduced for the

built environment which can be applied to Precinct’s activities.

Precinct is a member of the New Zealand Green Building Council (NZGBC). Precinct works in partnership with the NZGBC on a wide

range of our business activities with the aim to adopt market-based green building practices.

A key tool Precinct uses for rating the energy efficiency of its office buildings is NABERSNZ. It is an independent tool, backed by the New

Zealand Government. NABERSNZ allows buildings to be rated and then re-rated, resulting in improvements in their energy efficiency

from year to year. Precinct also uses the New Zealand Green Building Council’s Green Star building rating tool for assessing the

sustainability of buildings.

The overarching measure we currently use to benchmark our sustainability performance is the Global Real Estate Sustainability

Benchmark (GRESB). Being able to measure Precinct’s sustainability operational performance and having measurable long-term

targets is a key priority. Precinct became a member of GRESB in March 2018.

The assessments are guided by what investors and the industry consider to be material issues in the sustainability performance of real

estate investments. GRESB is considered the global standard for ESG benchmarking and reporting for real estate.

With the growth in GRESB coverage, Precinct believe that GRESB is the most appropriate external assessment tool for our business to

report against annually. Precinct was one of the 850 property companies and real estate funds in 62 countries to complete the GRESB

Real Estate Assessment in 2017, representing a combined total of 77,000 assets and over USD 3.7 trillion in value.

Precinct achieved a GRESB score in 2017 that was in line with the average score for first time submitters, but below the GRESB average

and peer average. Improving on this score in 2018 and beyond is a key objective for Precinct. Submission for our 2018 GRESB score is

currently underway and results will be disclosed in our 2019 annual report.

OUR MATERIAL ISSUES

We engaged an independent consultant to undertake an analysis of material sustainability issues facing our business. The analysis

considered our local operating context, industry standards, publicly available reporting of our peers in New Zealand and Australia,

media coverage and the opinions of sustainability experts.

The analysis identified a long-list of topics which were validated and aggregated through engagement with key internal stakeholders

and against the feedback received from external stakeholders.

The method of determining material topics for reporting followed the GRI 101 Standard, including the principles of materiality and

stakeholder inclusivity. Precinct’s key stakeholders include our people and partners, clients and people using our spaces, contractors

OUR MATERIAL ISSUES IN DETAIL

CLIENT WELLBEING

Client wellbeing is critical to the long-term success of our business. It's our goal to create environments in which our clients can thrive.

As a key goal, client wellbeing drives our lease renewal rates, the ability to attract and retain clients and the longevity of leases,

making it a highly material issue.

Precinct treats its occupiers as valued clients. We consider their wellbeing to include economic success, positive social outcomes and

benefiting from a healthy occupational environment. Our client focused approach applies through the full range of client interactions.

This is from parking and concierge services, presentation of lobbies through to dealings in lease negotiations. Implementing our inhouse

concierge team in February 2017 enabled us to be more responsive to our clients’ needs.

Independently-run client satisfaction surveys are typically undertaken every 2 years, the last being completed in 2017. We actively seek

and record feedback from our clients about their wellbeing and levels of satisfaction within our properties. We pride ourselves in

knowing and understanding our client’s needs.

A key initiative for this financial year was increasing the number of bike racks and showers across the portfolio. Feedback from clients

has helped us to understand that there is a clear correlation between high quality end of trip facilities and overall client wellbeing. We

have taken a number of steps to improve indoor fresh air quality and a range of initiatives to promote a healthier indoor environment.

Feedback received through the satisfaction survey also informed a decision to focus capital expenditure toward initiatives and

redevelopments which create warmer and more enjoyable lobby environments, particularly in Wellington where high winds are

experienced frequently. In the colder months the cleaning contractors undertake additional sanitising to prevent the spread of cold,

flu germs and viruses. This includes applying anti-bacterial solutions on lift buttons, escalator rails and door handles twice daily.

PERFORMANCE MEASURES

Our key measures of client wellbeing include the things we work to deliver to enhance client satisfaction, such as amenities, service

levels and location, and the things that our clients tell us are important to their wellbeing. Based on client feedback we continue to

develop our understanding of things our clients value.

We are developing and refining measures and systems for monitoring and reporting on client wellbeing. These will be included in our

2019 Annual Report.


WITH OVER 200 CLIENTS IN OUR PORTFOLIO, WE VALUE ALL OUR OCCUPIERS AND

ARE COMMITTED TO PROVIDING EXCELLENT CLIENT SERVICE. IT IS PART OF OUR

BUSINESS MODEL.”

HEALTH AND SAFETY

OUR APPROACH

Health and safety is one of our core corporate values and is principally about looking after people and ensuring all workers go home

healthy and safe. We believe in health and safety being embedded into all parts of our business and it being everybody's responsibility

to improve practices throughout the industry.

We are striving to entrench this into the culture of Precinct and all workers under our direct and indirect control. We recognise our

influence on the wider industry and public, who work and visit our portfolio and active developments. The construction industry remains

one of the four industry sectors with the worst injury rates in New Zealand. The sector therefore remains a key area of focus for Precinct

with current development activity increasing the numbers of workers on sites. Precinct works alongside its main contractors on

development sites to champion the importance of health and safety. As a corporate value and legislative requirement, health and

safety is a material topic which we and our key stakeholders are committed to addressing.

A key development during the year is our increased categorisation of incidents to enable advanced trend identification and ensure

appropriate focus and resources are directed at those areas that are the highest risk and impact, which is reflected in our

performance measures on the next page.

REPORTING STRUCTURE

Reporting process

123

Health and Safety

Committee


Audit and Risk

Committee


Precinct Board

On-line reporting - Precinct uses MangoLive, an online live reporting and incident management system to report all incidents and

observations on Precinct controlled workplaces. This includes client fit out and development sites under the direct control of a Precinct

appointed contractor. The system allocates all incidents to the appropriate party for close out and has an escalation process in place

with all priority incidents reported directly to the CEO. The MangoLive system also has the following further capabilities:

• repository for all health and safety documentation

• management system for all health and safety related training

• risk assessment data base

• staff emergency contact register

• audit and monitoring register and results

Audit and monitoring - Precinct actively audits and monitors live sites both through management staff and third party consultants Work

Safety Limited and Construct Health Limited. Any issues are allocated to the appropriate party for close out with priority items

escalated directly to the CEO.

Internal review - Precinct's Health and Safety (H&S) Committee meets monthly and provides oversight on all H&S matters. The H&S

Committee has representation from all parts of the business including the senior executive team and management employee

representatives from both the property and development portfolios. Workplace Safety Limited, an independent third party consultant,

also sits on the H&S Committee to provide external input and advice. The H&S Committee review all incidents, observations, audit and

monitoring reports. They also monitor annual H&S compliance by ensuring that H&S policies and processes are delivered, reviewed and

improved where relevant.

Management and oversight - The H&S Committee reports directly to Precinct's Audit and Risk Committee and the Precinct Board.

External review - In addition to external audit and monitoring by Workplace Safety Limited and Construct Health Limited, Precinct also

instigates annual third party reviews of its processes by Aon and ICSafety Solutions. Aon undertook this external review in 2018 with no

health and safety issues identified. Precinct also holds ACC Workplace Safety Management Practices tertiary status (the highest level

of accreditation) commending the strong health and safety policies in place and recognising Precinct's commitment to continued

improvement.

HEALTH AND SAFETY POLICIES

Our Health and Safety policy guides our management approach and includes the following requirements:


Training - All Precinct management staff receive regular training including external accreditation where relevant to their role.


KPI's - All Precinct management staff have health and safety objectives included in their performance reviews.


Contractor pre-qualification - Each contractor engaged by Precinct is required to be pre-qualified by Workplace Safety Limited or

Construct Health Limited.


Hazard and asbestos registers - Registers identify the observed hazards at each site. These are live registers subject to constant

internal review and are reviewed annually by independent experts.


Audit and monitoring - Precinct actively monitors live sites to ensure oversight of health and safety matters.

PERFORMANCE MEASURES

Incidents - We recorded 246 health and safety incidents in the year compared to 242 reported in FY17. Precinct recorded

incidents include observations, near misses, first aid injuries, medical treatment injuries and lost time injuries. There were no

significant injuries during the period with approximately 75% of recorded incidents being classified as minor (for example, rolled

ankles, minor cuts and grazes). 62 recorded incidents occurred on our stabilsed property portfolio representing an approximate

22% decrease in incidents compared to FY17.

75% of our recorded incidents occurred on our development sites which are under the direct control of a Precinct appointed

main contractor. Precinct actively incentivises health and safety observations to enable them to be reviewed and improvements

made where relevant. Observations have significantly risen during FY18 as a result of this policy (34 compared to 10). This is in

addition to the main contractors own internal observation policies.

Audit and Monitoring - Over 225 additional principal audit and monitoring inspections were undertaken during FY18. This is in

addition to regular internal contractor health and safety practices and includes internal and external principal audits and

inspections, pre Project Control Group H&S meetings and specific H&S workshops. 184 of these were in relation to our

development sites given the weighting of both number and severity of incidents to our development portfolio and the number of

workers on site. This included 36 external audits by Construct Health Limited, with audit scores averaging 91% for Commercial Bay

and 95% for Bowen Campus during the year.

“THE BOARD RECOGNISES PRECINCT’S INFLUENCE ON HEALTH AND SAFETY ACROSS

THE BUSINESS AND WIDER INDUSTRY. IT IS SOMETHING WE ARE VERY FOCUSED ON.”

PARTNERSHIPS AND COMMUNITY

Precinct is a city centre specialist and one of the largest

commercial real estate investors in Auckland and Wellington.

The way we invest and develop, and the partnerships we foster

are vital to the development of strong relationships within the

communities where we operate. We see our business activity as

a platform for strengthening communities and for creating

environments in which people can thrive. The quality of our

relationships with key partners and our communities are critical

to our own success and the sustainable development outcomes

we aspire to. This makes the topic of Partnerships and

Community a material one for Precinct.

We are building strong and enduring relationships with Iwi, local

government, council-controlled entities and community-based

organisations. The strength of these partnerships enables us to

create positive social, economic and environmental value and

they are integral to our business model. We view the granting of

our social licence to operate as a key business asset and one

that we value and carefully maintain to ensure our ongoing

ability to operate and achieve our business outcomes.

Alignment of our business outcomes with value creation that

benefits both Precinct and our partners and communities is

critical to our long-term sustainable success.

During 2018, Precinct continued to support both Auckland City

Mission and Wellington City Mission. In addition to financial

support, Precinct actively works together with both Missions on

fundraising initiatives throughout the year. This includes the One

Can - Two Can annual appeal which collects non-perishable

food items and funds for the Mission’s emergency food parcels.

Last year Precinct was one of the 158 organisations who

participated, collecting around 30,000 cans for the Mission in

Auckland.

During Christmas, gifts and non-perishable food items are also

collected by Precinct to help both Mission's in Auckland and

Wellington distribute thousands of food parcels and christmas

presents.

More recently, Precinct have accepted an invitation from

Auckland City Mission to increase it's financial contribution per

annum over the next five years, working in partnership with the

Mission to deliver on their project, HomeGround, the multi-million

dollar project which will see 80 new studio and one-bedroom

units built on the Auckland City Mission’s current site.

Our partnership with community organisations such as City

Mission is based on our belief that we have a role to play in

strengthening communities in the areas where we operate. Our

support of City Mission is aligned with our overarching focus on

partnerships and community initiatives that create positive social

value.

SUSTAINABLE DESIGN

Developing and delivering sustainable designs for our built spaces is a learning journey for Precinct. Our ambition is to create spaces

which generate environmental, social and economic benefits for a sustainable future. We define sustainable design in our operational

context as the process for creating built spaces which deliver net positive environmental, social and economic value. It encompasses

building and interior design, master planning and systems thinking about the inter-dependencies of our built assets and the ecology of

their location. For Precinct, this thinking is underpinned with a fundamental consideration of the people that will inhabit the spaces we

create. Our clients and the communities in which we operate are increasingly looking to us to shape the sustainability conversation

and lead the development of sustainable and enriching built spaces. Our analysis of current building trends and feedback from our

key stakeholders indicates that sustainable design is a highly material issue for the future-proofing of our business.

We have taken the first steps on our sustainability journey by increasing our understanding of what sustainability means within the

context of the built environment. We are assessing the sustainability performance of our current designs and establishing our vision and

target-setting for future designs. It is not a static process. The evolution of technologies and practices in sustainable design and

construction sectors are evolving at an accelerating pace. Our focus on sustainable design extends to demonstrating its value to

building occupiers and ensuring our buildings can perform within the ranges of current and predicted future climatic extremes.

Our Mason Bros. building completed in 2017 provides a case study on page 34 of our approach to sustainable design and the

outcomes achieved.

PERFORMANCE MEASURES

In our current portfolio Mason Bros. building and Zurich House in Auckland have Green Star design ratings. Both Zurich House and

Mason Bros. building are rated of five out of six stars, considered as New Zealand excellence. Precinct is currently reviewing

opportunities to achieve a six star as-built rating, considered to be World leadership in sustainable design. 12 Madden Street at

Wynyard Quarter is also targeting five-star design and as-built ratings which Precinct expects to achieve in the 2019 financial year.

ETHICAL BUSINESS PRACTICES

Disclosure on our ethical business practices, including our Code of Ethics and Financial Product Dealing Policy is reported on in the

corporate governance section of this report on page 46. Our Code of Ethics includes a whistle-blowing clause for reporting unethical

or unlawful behaviour and the full code can be found on our website at www.precinct.co.nz, along with our Financial Product Dealing

Policy and other key governance documents.

DIVERSITY

Precinct understands the business and cultural benefits of achieving a diverse and highly inclusive workforce. We are committed to

promoting and improving diversity and inclusion at all levels across our business.

Diversity includes, but is not limited to gender, age, disability, ethnicity, marital or family status, socio-economic background, religious or

cultural background, sexual orientation and gender identity. Our core values, stakeholder expectations and NZX reporting

requirements make diversity a material topic.

Our approach to managing diversity is guided by our Diversity and Inclusion Policy (available on our website www.precinct.co.nz). We

use a number of internal management policies to support diversity including our Equal Opportunities Policy, Health and Wellbeing

Policy, Recruitment and Selection Policy and Remuneration Policy. We are also guided by our Culture Charter, adopted in 2016.

Precinct’s human resources manager takes a proactive approach toward promoting Diversity and Inclusion within the business and

has recently been appointed to the newly established Diversity Committee formed by the NZ Property Council. The committee was

created with a focus to increase the number of women in leadership roles and to build a diverse and inclusive property industry.

Precinct provides a generous parental leave entitlement over and above the Government legislative requirements for both primary

and secondary caregivers. We also encourage flexible working in the form of offering flexible working hours and the ability to work

remotely, providing assistance to employees of all genders to meet domestic responsibilities.

Kindercare Learning Centres Limited have been a client of Precinct’s since 2002, occupying ground floor space in the AMP Centre and

providing early childhood care and education for over 100 children. Increases in the city centre residential population, combined with

the upcoming completion of the new PwC Tower and wider Commercial Bay retail development, has resulted in the expansion of our

early childhood care and education offering. We have recently agreed a new 10 year lease over ground and part of level 2 of the

AMP Centre, allowing us to accommodate 200 children once the fitout is completed. Precinct and Kindercare are currently underway

with planning and expect to open in early 2019.

Alongside our internal values and targets, we enable environments in which diversity can thrive for our clients. Measures to advocate

and enable greater diversity include:

• Providing ease of access and comfort for those with physical disabilities including hearing and vision impaired wayfinding,

particularly in relation to using lifts

• All Precinct staff, including Concierge understand the importance of being welcoming, inclusive and treating all people with

respect

• Precinct values are strongly aligned with LGBTQIA, this is explicit within several internal policies, but also expressed publicly through

social media channels. During times of awareness and individuality celebration such as Rainbow week, Precinct partner with clients

and create lift screens and other collateral to raise this awareness across the portfolio.

We are proud to be a member of Diversity Works New Zealand and proud to support The Women’s Empowerment Principles, a joint

initiative of the UN Global Compact and UN Women.

Precinct also supports TupuToa, a program launched in 2016 by the Maori and Pasifika corporate pathways project in conjunction with

support from Global Women. Since it's inception, Precinct has recruited interns through this programme which has been very

successful.

PERFORMANCE MEASURES

We are committed to reviewing and reporting the performance of Precinct against its diversity and inclusion policy in conjunction with

human resources and Board members on an annual basis. Precinct has made progress in improving gender diversity during the year

and has an ongoing focus on inclusion and making making further progress across wider diversity metrics.

We have made positive progress in improving gender diversity across both our senior management and all management employees.

There has been no change in Precinct Board gender diversity, however the 2020 targets remain unchanged.

Our management approach and diversity performance are reported in the corporate governance section of this report on page 46.

You can also read more about our measurable objectives in our Diversity and Inclusion Policy on our website.

BUILDING ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORMANCE

Growing awareness of buildings’ environmental impacts and clients’ increased expectations, make the environmental performance of

our buildings a material issue. The environmental performance of our buildings includes the energy they consume, the waste they

generate and their operational carbon footprints. To manage our buildings’ environmental performance we’ve taken a disciplined

approach to meeting our clients’ expectations around optimal operating conditions while maintaining a focus on energy efficiency.

Our Facilities Management (FM) team maintain and upgrade our buildings’ plant and building management systems (BMS) on an

ongoing basis. Monthly monitoring and tuning meetings are held by our FM team in collaboration with engineers and contractors to

ensure our buildings are constantly being tested and fine-tuned to achieve their optimum environmental performance levels. Effective

software is critical for the successful implementation of our building management strategy. In 2017 we deployed a new analytical

software package across our Auckland portfolio to integrate functions of their BMS while providing real-time fault finding capability.

The new software system has delivered significant operational improvements, enhancing our ability to identify potential or actual faults

and respond to them in much shorter timeframes. We’ve named the new software DC Analytics and it proved its worth in the smooth

and seamless commissioning of our new Wynyard Quarter development, 12 Madden Street.

Currently three buildings in our portfolio have a NABERSNZ building energy efficiency rating, ranging from three to five out of six stars.

Ratings across the balance of the portfolio are underway. The recently completed Mason Bros. building has also achieved a 5 stars

NABERSNZ Energy Base Building rating, demonstrating market leading performance in energy efficiency.

MASON BROS. BUILDING CASE STUDY

Originally built as a warehouse in the 1920s for the Mason Bros.

Engineering company, Precinct redeveloped the building into a

contemporary three level workplace with 4,910 sqm of net

lettable commercial office space located in the Wynyard

Quarter Innovation Precinct of Auckland. The redevelopment

has created a stunning character building, ready for its second

lifetime as a collaboration and innovation hub for Auckland.

The building boasts a 5 Green Star Design rating representing

New Zealand Excellence for sustainable building design and is

now targeting a 6 star Green Star As-Built rating which would

reflect the building’s world leading sustainability credentials. The

building has also achieved a 5 stars NABERSNZ Energy Base

Building rating, demonstrating market leading performance in

energy efficiency.

Precinct implemented a comprehensive sustainable design and

development strategy with long-term operational efficiency,

durability, flexibility, occupier comfort and amenity as key

objectives. Collaborating with land owner Panuku Development

Auckland as well as consultants, the sustainable design

approach has added value while celebrating the building’s

heritage and innovation.

A good example of adding value through sustainable design

comes from our knowledge that building facades and services

typically contribute around 40% of up front capital costs and

directly influence the major share of operational costs for a

building. By engaging with our engineers, Mott MacDonald NZ

Limited, early in the process we were able to undertake

advanced energy and daylight analysis to achieve an optimal

energy efficient design. Attention to detail and constant

refinement was applied during the design of all of the building’s

systems. Upon completion of design we had modeled a 30%

decrease in energy consumption when compared to a standard

office building. Now in operation, we are experiencing energy

reductions even greater than estimates.

We focused on creating a building with increased amenity and

comfort to enable higher productivity for it's occupants. Our

post-occupancy survey indicates that on average occupants

perceive Mason Bros. to increase their personal productivity by

8.5%. In comparison, occupiers surveyed within the New Zealand

sample set for the same survey perceived that their buildings

reduced their productivity by 0.7% on average. One business

confirmed a 25% reduction in absenteeism since relocating to

the Mason Bros. building.

Sustainable solutions that enable productivity increases were

prioritised over short-term cost implications and included cyclist

facilities, showers and change rooms; no on-site carparking to

promote public transport, walking or cycling; improved indoor air

quality through the use of high efficiency air filters.

Studies estimate it can take 20 to 30 years for energy and

emissions from a building to exceed the embodied energy

contained within the building’s materials. This provides the Mason

Bros. re-development with a significant lifecycle benefit when

compared to an equivalent new building. An assessment of the

building using a tool developed by BRANZ has shown the Mason

Bros. building has 50% less lifecycle impacts than a new building.

NABERSNZ

NABERSNZ is a ratings scheme to measure and rate the

energy performance of office buildings in New Zealand. The

scheme is based on National Australian Building

Environmental Rating System (NABERS) and takes into

consideration the climatic conditions in which the building

operates, the building size and occupancy, hours of use, the

level of services it provides and the energy sources (e.g.

electricity and gas) it uses. By comparing a building’s

energy performance data against NABERSNZ benchmark

data, a star rating is calculated that reflects the building’s

performance and enables robust comparison with other

buildings.

GREEN STAR

Green Star is an internationally-recognised rating system for

the sustainable design, construction and operation of

buildings, fitout and communities. Green Star supports

stakeholders in the property and construction sectors to

design, construct and operate projects in a more

sustainable, efficient and productive way. It provides

occupiers with a trusted mark of independent verification to

support decision-making.

PRECINCT PROPERTIES NEW ZEALAND LIMITED

ANNUAL REPORT 2018

CATERING TO THE DEMAND FOR FLEXIBLE SPACE

The traditional concept of heading to work to sit in an isolated office from nine to five is a thing of the past. Businesses today are

demanding flexibility, social interaction, work-life balance and digital connectivity. They are also attracted to being able to access a

level of service, quality of building and fit-out which has traditionally been the reserve of large-sale businesses.

According to Bayleys Co-working Research (2018), over the past two years co-working space in Auckland has doubled, now totalling

around 30,000 sqm with an additional 15,000 sqm in the pipeline. Of the total stock, around half is in the CBD and Wynyard precincts

with the remaining located around the suburbs.

Recognising the need to meet this growing demand in Auckland, Precinct is committed to creating workspaces that meet the

requirements of today's businesses with its acquisition of a 50% interest in Generator New Zealand Limited in 2017.

Precinct through its share in Generator currently have a significant presence in the CBD and Wynyard precincts, making up around

50% of the flexible/co-working market.

It’s no surprise that the work place is radically changing - it reflects the revolution in how we work. People are expecting more than just

financial reward from their workplace. Today, people want their workplace to align with their own outlook and values. Whether they

work for themselves, in a growing local business or for a global multi-national, what’s important to them is having a workplace that

offers flexibility, work-life balance, and an inspiring and positive work environment – an ethos that co-working perfectly caters to.

Precinct is proud to be part of that revolution.

FUTURE OF WORK

“OUR ACQUISITION OF A 50% SHARE OF

GENERATOR IN 2017 WAS A FURTHER

STEP IN HELPING TRANSFORM

AUCKLAND INTO A MODERN BUSINESS

ENVIRONMENT, COMPARABLE TO

LEADING INTERNATIONAL CORPORATE

HUBS. WE UNDERSTAND THE DESIRE FOR

NEW WORKING COMMUNITIES.”

>> Scott Pritchard, CEO.

CO-WORKING... WHAT IS IT?

Co-working is a style of work that involves multiple people, often

from different organisations, working together in a shared office

space. Co-workers are encouraged to share resources, ideas

and thought-starters, creating a highly interactive space with a

shared sense of community. The extent of shared space can

range from shared meeting rooms and amenities with private

offices, through to shared open plan hot desks.

The co-working trend started to emerge around 1996 and co-

working spaces began opening as an affordable office space

solution for start-ups and freelancers. Co-working is a cost-

effective solution for the limited budgets of these groups, and

early adopters quickly learnt that the spaces provided an

innovative environment for businesses to collaborate and

network together.

More recently, Precinct has seen a shift in the type of businesses

interested in co-working spaces. Increasingly, small and medium

sized businesses and even new to market large corporates are

attracted to the ability for smaller occupiers to access premium

levels of service and amenity. Recognising the value in co-

working, a range of corporate business users are now turning to

co-working as an optimal office space option.

DEDICATION TO BUILDING COLLABORATIVE

COMMUNITIES

Established in 2011, Generator was one of the first co-working

spaces in New Zealand and the first to provide fully serviced

offices to its membership base. It has since expanded from one

floor in Stanbeth House to now operate over 12,000 sqm of co-

working space. This is over three locations in Auckland's city

centre, with GRID AKL at Wynyard Innovation Precinct opening

September 2017 and the recent opening at Britomart Place in

June 2018.

Up until the acquisition in early 2017, Precinct had no occupiers

less than 200 sqm - 300 sqm, which meant Precinct’s portfolio of

assets did not provide work spaces for the largest employment

base in New Zealand – small and medium sized businesses.

Generator gives Precinct exposure to this market, allowing it to

expand its traditional client base and to grow with this market

segment.

“RECOGNISING THE TREND TOWARD CO-

WORKING OVERSEAS AND THE

CHANGES IN WORKPLACE CULTURE

HERE IN NEW ZEALAND, WE BELIEVE

PRECINCT IS THE PERFECT PARTNER FOR

GENERATOR FOR THE NEXT STAGE IN ITS

EVOLUTION. GENERATOR PROVIDES A

Definition - Funds from operations (FFO) and Adjusted funds from operations (AFFO)

FFO and AFFO are a non-IFRS earnings measure developed for real estate entities.

Funds from operations (FFO)

FFO is the organisation’s underlying and recurring earnings from its operations. This is determined by adjusting statutory net profit

(under IFRS) for certain non-cash and other items. FFO has been determined based on guidelines established by the Property

Council of Australia and is intended as a supplementary measure of operating performance.

Adjusted funds from operations (AFFO)

AFFO is determined by adjusting FFO for other non-cash and other items which have not been adjusted in determining FFO.

A dividend payout ratio of 100% indicates a company is neither over or under paying dividend.

AFFO is considered a measure of operating cash flow generated from the business, after providing for all operating capital

requirements including maintenance capital expenditure, tenant improvement works, incentives and leasing costs.

While AFFO overcomes the limitations of FFO by considering the impact of capital requirements for operations, it can vary

dramatically year over year, depending on the lease expiry profile and level of activity in any one period.

Our dividend policy

Precinct’s dividend policy is to pay out approximately 90% of net operating income after tax as dividends, with the retained

earnings being used to fund the capital expenditure required to maintain the quality of Precinct’s property portfolio.

The payment of dividends is not guaranteed by Precinct and Precinct’s dividend policy may change from time to time.

PRECINCT PROPERTIES NEW ZEALAND LIMITED

ANNUAL REPORT 2018

INTRODUCTION

The board of directors is responsible for the governance of

Precinct and is committed to ensuring Precinct maintains best

practice corporate governance structures with the highest

ethical standards and integrity.

Precinct's Corporate Governance Manual guides both the

directors and the manager of Precinct. It includes a Code of

Ethics, Board and Committee Charters and Policies on Securities

Trading, Audit Independence, Diversity and Inclusion, Continuous

Disclosure, Takeover and Shareholder Communications.

This section of the Annual Report reflects the company’s

compliance with the requirements of NZX Corporate

Governance Code 2017. Precinct's Corporate Governance

Manual is available on Precinct’s website (www.precinct.co.nz)

in the News and Investor Information section together with a

statement of how Precinct's corporate governance policies,

practices and processes alter from the NZX Corporate

Governance Code 2017 as at 16 August 2018. If any investor

would like a copy sent to them, please contact Precinct investor

relations.

PRINCIPLE 1 – ETHICAL STANDARDS

Directors set high standards of ethical behaviour, model this

behaviour, and hold management accountable for these

standards being followed throughout the organisation.

Ensuring that Precinct is governed transparently and to the

highest of ethical standards and integrity is one of the key

priorities for the board. Precinct's Code of Ethics and Financial

Products Dealing Policy are set out in the Corporate

Governance Manual and are compliant in all respects with the

NZX Corporate Governance Code recommendations.

Code of Ethics - The purpose and intent of Precinct's Code of

Ethics is to guide directors, the manager, representatives and

subsidiaries of Precinct so that their business conduct is consistent

with high business standards. The Code is not intended to be an

exhaustive list of acceptable and non-acceptable behaviour,

rather it is intended to facilitate decisions that are consistent with

Precinct’s business standards, objectives and legal and policy

obligations.

Financial Product Dealing Policy - The Financial Product Dealing

Policy applies to all directors and officers of Precinct and

management employees. No director, officer or employee may

use their position of knowledge of Precinct or its business to

engage in dealing with any Precinct listed financial products for

personal benefit or to provide benefit to any third party.

PRINCIPLE 2 - BOARD COMPOSITION AND

PERFORMANCE

There is a balance of independence, skills, knowledge,

experience and perspectives among directors to ensure an

effective board.

Precinct has seven directors, the majority of whom are

independent (as defined by the NZX Listing Rules). Details of

each director's experience are set out in the Board of Directors

Section of this report. All Precinct directors are non-executive

and the board composition and performance is compliant in all

respects with the NZX Corporate Governance Code

recommendations.

Independent Directors - Craig Stobo, Don Huse, Graeme Wong

and Launa Inman were appointed by Precinct shareholders and

are required to retire by rotation. At this year’s annual general

meeting in November 2018, shareholders will again have the

opportunity to elect/re-elect two independent directors, as well

as vote on various other matters.

Non-Independent Directors – Rob Campbell, Mohammed Al

Nuiami and Chris Judd are non-independent. Rob was

appointed by Haumi Company Limited in 2012 pursuant to a

provision in the constitution which grants any security holder,

holding more than 15% of our shares, the right to appoint one

director. Mohammed and Chris were both appointed in 2013 as

directors by AMP Haumi Management Limited pursuant to a

provision in the constitution which grants the manager the right

to appoint up to two directors. Anthony Bertoldi acts as alternate

director for Mohammed. The non-independent directors are not

required by Precinct’s constitution (or by rule 3.3.11 of the NZX

Listing Rules) to retire by rotation.

Subsidiary Company Directors – A third subsidary was

incorporated during the year being Precinct Properties 1 Queen

Street Limited. The directors for each of Precinct's three subsidiary

companies are all executive appointments and as at 30 June

2018 are Scott Pritchard, George Crawford, Davida Dunphy and

Richard Hilder.

Board Charter - Precinct's Corporate Governance Manual

includes the Board's Charter which sets out the roles and

responsibilities of the board and management.

Board Appointment - The Remuneration and Nomination

Committee assists the board in planning its composition and is

responsible for nominating and appointing directors to the

board. All directors enter into a written agreement setting out

the terms of their appointment

Diversity and Inclusion Policy - Precinct 's Diversity and Inclusion

Policy is included in Precinct's Corporate Governance Manual

and includes measurable objectives which are assessed

annually. The board has developed this policy with

management to encourage a diverse and inclusive working

environment at all levels of the organisation to recruit and retain

the best talent from the widest pool of candidates and build a

culture where diversity of gender, age, ethnicity, background,

experience, skills, thought, ideas, styles and perspective are

leveraged and valued.

47
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The gender composition of directors, officers and management

employees is as follows:

For the purposes of measuring and reporting gender diversity,

the term 'officers' is defined by those that report directly to the

Precinct Board. The term 'senior management' relates to those in

the business that sit on the executive management team,

and/or have a strong influence over the organisation and are

involved in key business decisions. To be considered as a senior

management role the person must have a direct reporting line

to the CEO, COO or CFO.

Supporting the efforts to increase diversity across the

management team are secondary policies and practices

including the Equal Opportunities, Recruitment and Selection,

Study Assistance and Remuneration Policies together with a

Culture Charter and biennial anonymous staff surveys. To ensure

workplace diversity continues to evolve and be built upon a

matrix of key objectives and monitoring is undertaken on an on-

going basis.

PRECINCT PROPERTIES NEW ZEALAND LIMITED

ANNUAL REPORT 2018

PRINCIPLE 3 – BOARD COMMITTEES

The board uses committees where this enhances effectiveness in

key areas while still retaining board responsibility.

For the year to 30 June 2018 there were two standing

committees of the board, being the Audit and Risk Committee

and the Remuneration and Nominations Committee. Our board

committees are compliant in all respects with the NZX Corporate

Governance Code recommendations. The charters that exist for

each committee can be found in the Precinct Governance

Manual together with Precinct's Takeover Policy.

The Audit and Risk Committee comprises Don Huse as Chairman,

Launa Inman, Craig Stobo and Rob Campbell. The committee

was established to assist the board in discharging its duties with

respect to financial reporting, compliance and risk

management.

The Remuneration and Nominations Committee comprises

Graeme Wong as Chairman, Craig Stobo and Rob Campbell.

Chris Judd was appointed during the year. The committee's

purpose is to:

- provide guidance to the board when approving directors’

remuneration; and

- assist the board in planning the board’s composition,

evaluating competencies required of prospective directors and

to make relevant recommendations to the board.

The Due Diligence Committee is an ad hoc committee that is

established by the board from time to time to provide guidance

and recommendations to the Board on the due diligence for

any transaction of a significant size and/or complexity. A Due

Diligence Process Memorandum is agreed each time the

Committee is established setting out its duties, responsibilities and

scope. The Due Diligence Committee was established three

times during the year and comprised Don Huse as Chairman,

Craig Stobo, Rob Campbell and Graeme Wong.

PRINCIPLE 4 – REPORTING AND DISCLOSURES

The Board demands integrity in financial and non financial

reporting and in the timeliness and balance of corporate

disclosures.

The Board is committed to ensuring the highest standards are

maintained in financial and non financial reporting and

disclosure of all relevant information and is compliant in all

respects with the NZX Corporate Governance Code

recommendations. A copy of Precinct's Continuous Disclosure

Policy can be found in the Precinct Governance Manual.

The Audit and Risk Committee oversees the quality and

timeliness of all financial reports, including all disclosure

documents issued by the company or any of its subsidiaries.

Precinct has moved toward integrated reporting and the annual

report includes information on Precinct's;

• Business model

• Strategy and key performance indicators

• Risk management, and

• Sustainability framework.

Precinct now reports against the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI)

Standards, shown in the Sustainability Section.

49
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

PRINCIPLE 5 – REMUNERATION

The remuneration of directors and executives is transparent, fair

and reasonable.

The board policy is for directors’ remuneration to increase

annually in line with inflation and to be reviewed every two years

to ensure that it remains at market levels to attract and retain

high quality independent directors.

Our remuneration practices are compliant with the NZX

Corporate Governance Code recommendations with the

exception of having a written policy outlining the relative

weightings of remuneration components and relevant

performance criteria (recommendation 5.2) and disclosing the

same in relation to the CEO (recommendation 5.3). This is

because CEO remuneration, together with all management

remuneration, is an external management expense.

While management remuneration is not an expense of Precinct,

the board of Precinct believes that it is important for shareholders

to understand the structure of management remuneration as it is

an important determinant of management retention, motivation

and alignment between management and shareholders.

Under the Management Services Agreement, the board of

Precinct must be consulted on management remuneration.

More information on remuneration of directors, executives and

the management company can be found within the

Management Fee Structure and Remuneration Report.

It is proposed that the director remuneration review process is

updated during FY19 to provide further transparency to

shareholders by setting aside the existing director pool fee cap

and instead putting director remuneration to shareholders for

annual approval. Such annual approval would apply to both

directors base fees and additional committee fees and allow the

board to recruit new directors during the year if appropriate for

succession planning. Shareholders will be given the opportunity

to vote on this change at the AGM in November and further

information on this proposal will be included in the notice of

meeting.

PRINCIPLE 6 – RISK MANAGEMENT

The board has a sound understanding of the material risks faced

by the business and how to manage them. The board regularly

verifies that the company has appropriate processes that identify

and manage potential and material risks.

The Board has a risk management and reporting framework in

place that identifies and manages risk that may impact the

business and complies with the NZX Governance Code

recommendations in all respects.

Risk Register - A Risk Register is maintained which identifies key

risks to the business, records the likelihood and impact of each

risk and steps to mitigate the same. The Audit and Risk

Committee oversees the risk register and reviews it regularly with

management to track existing risks and the emergence of new

risks. The results of each review are reported to and reviewed by

the Board. The Risk Register is further reviewed when required in

the event the Due Diligence Committee is formed.

Financial Risk Management Policy - Our Financial Risk

Management Policy details our approach to managing financial

risks and the policies and controls that are required to mitigate

the likelihood of financial risks resulting in an adverse outcome.

This policy is reviewed by the Board annually.

Insurance - Insurance cover is in place for insurable liability and

general business risk. The primary objective of our annual

insurance programme is to protect shareholders from material

loss in the value of assets as a result of events such as fire, natural

disaster or accidental damage. This approach protects creditors

and bondholders as well.

Audit - Ernst & Young are engaged during the year to audit and

review our financial statements.

Heath and Safety - Health and safety policies are embedded

throughout the business and overseen by the Health and Safety

Committee. Reporting and escalation processes are in place to

the Audit and Risk Committee and the Board.

More detail on how Precinct manages its key business risks can

be found under Risk Management in this section.

PRINCIPLE 7 – AUDITORS

The board ensures the quality and independence of the external

audit process.

Oversight of Precinct’s external audit arrangements is the

responsibility of the Audit and Risk Committee. We do not have

an internal audit function. Ensuring that external audit

independence is maintained is one of the key aspects in

discharging this responsibility. The Policy on Audit Independence,

detailed in the Corporate Governance Manual, has been

adopted by the committee. This policy is compliant with the NZX

Corporate Governance Code and covers the following areas:

• Provision of related assurance services by Precinct’s external

auditors;

• Auditor rotation; and

• Relationships between the auditor and Precinct.

The Audit and Risk Committee shall only approve a firm to be

auditor if that firm would be regarded by a reasonable investor

with full knowledge of all relevant facts and circumstances as

capable of exercising objective and impartial judgement on all

issues encompassed within the auditor’s engagement.

The external auditors shall annually confirm their compliance with

professional standards and ethical guidelines of Chartered

Accountants Australia and New Zealand (CA ANZ) to evidence

their competence.

PRINCIPLE 8 – SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS AND

RELATIONS

The board respects the rights of shareholders and fosters

constructive relationships with shareholders that encourage them

to engage with the company.

The Board is committed to achieving best practice investor

relations. Financial and operational information and key

corporate governance information (including Precinct's

Shareholder Communications Policy) can be accessed at

www.precinct.co.nz.

An annual investor relations plan has been established and is

reviewed annually. This plan details the investor relations

approach to e-communications, roadshows, investor briefings,

site visits, blackout periods, financial reporting and other items.

Enquiries from shareholders can be voiced at the Annual

General Meeting, or emailed through using the contact details

on our website. A key objective of the plan is to ensure accurate

continuous disclosure to the NZX.

We have previously conducted our AGM voting by poll in

advance and by show of hands (of those shareholder who

attend the AGM on the day). This allowed minority shareholders

the opportunity to register their vote in front of the directors and

management. In doing so we retained the right to demand a

final poll in the event that the show of hands vote went against

those votes cast in advance (which to date has never

occurred). In accordance with NZX Corporate Governance

recommendation 8.4 however, voting at the upcoming AGM in

November will instead be conducted by poll only.

KEY BUSINESS RISKS

EXTERNAL

Risks and impactsHow we manage the riskMovement in the period

Economy and property market

Market risk arises from adverse changes

in the New Zealand economic

environment, regulatory environment

and the broader investment market.

Changes may result in an impact in

property value and amount of income

generated from them.

Maintain a proactive and strategic

approach to manage property risks it

can influence.

Providing quality premises matched by

high service levels and building strong

relationships.

Undertake annual business planning

process to review the portfolio and

help mitigate these risks.


Contributing factors in the New

Zealand economy and property

market remains strong and positive for

Precinct with expectation they will

continue for the near term.

Occupier market and client default

A weakening occupier market through

lack of business activity and investment,

as well as unanticipated client default,

can directly impact the income and

value of each individual asset.

Insurance risk

The risk of being unable to continue to

obtain insurance cover, or following an

event, not having sufficient cover in

place to repay creditors. This could

result in significant business interruption.

Engage directly with a wide range of

local and international insurers.

Ensure the insurance market has a

good understanding of the portfolio

and its risks.


The impact from the Kaikoura

earthquake and fire service levies has

largely been accounted for within

recent insurance renewals.

INTERNAL

Risks and impactsHow we manage the riskChangeMovement in the period

Development

Development risk

Development projects are inherently

subject to uncertainties. They are

entered into on the basis of assumed

future costs, values and income levels.

An increased level of development risk

has the potential to make meeting

covenant obligations and overall

solvency challenging.

Ensure expected returns from

developments adequately

compensate Precinct for the level of

risk undertaken before each project is

approved.

Through due diligence, we understand

the project risks before commitment.

Before commitment, ensure sufficient

funding is in place and committed

gearing is maintained within

acceptable levels.

Establishing a procurement plan and

engaging contractors early to mitigate

cost escalation or contractor default.

Undertake substantial pre-leasing prior

to commencement of development.


The risk profile of the remaining

developments continues to decrease

as pre-commit leasing progresses

through the period. Remaining

commitments also reduce as projects

near completion.

Exposure to the construction market

escalation remains minimal with fixed

construction contracts agreed.

Financial

Interest rate management

Interest rate risk arises through changes

in interest rate market conditions

leading to earnings volatility or breach

of interest cover covenant levels.

Manage by aligning the interest rate

re-pricing profile with the re-pricing

profile of Precinct's gross rental

income.

Establish interest rate swaps to

manage exposure within a band

reviewed by the Board annually and

monitored by the audit and risk

committee and board quarterly.


Floating interest rates have remained

low during the year.

Market expect rates to remain low in

the short to medium term.

Refinancing risk (liquidity)

Having insufficient funds to refinance

debt when it falls due and sustain the

ongoing operations of the business.

Implemented a Financial Risk

Management Policy in 2011 which is

reviewed annually providing a clear

framework in which to operate under

whilst ensuring risks are managed and

understood.

Diversified funding away from sole

reliance on bank funding through

alternative sources.

Staggering the maturity profile of

facilities providing adequate time to

pursue alternatives to refinancing.


New bank debt facility secured in July

2018 reduces refinancing risk providing

sufficient funding capacity to deliver

our committed developments.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Risks and impactsHow we manage the riskChangeMovement in the period

Gearing levels

An increase in gearing levels outside

suitable industry standards could

increase the risk of breaching financing

covenants and may increase

borrowing costs.

Implemented a Financial Risk

Management Policy in 2011 which is

reviewed annually.

Ensure no capital commitment is

entered into without sufficient funding

in place.

Maintain adequate headroom in

relation to gearing covenants to

withstand portfolio devaluations which

may be anticipated through the

property cycle.


Gearing levels continue to increase as

existing developments progress

throughout the year. Funding strategy

in place to ensure current levels remain

within internal policy parameters.

People

Staff

Staff are critical to ongoing success

and execution of strategy. Failure to

maintain a high level of experience

and skill could impact business

performance.

Ensure a strong focus on team

engagement and enhancement.

Maintain ongoing succession planning

and retention structures within the

company.

Regularly review performance

appraisals of employees and directors

and benchmark remuneration

packages with the wider market.


Human resource remains a key focus

for the business as the company

continues to grow and execute on its

long term strategy.

Health and safety

Unsafe work environments may lead to

accidents (employees, clients,

contractors and visitors) resulting in

financial loss and/or business continuity.

Provide ongoing individual, group and

industry training.

Maintain a hazard register that

identifies hazards where contractors

are required to take precaution.

Registers are subject to annual review.

Actively monitor any live sites to ensure

oversight of Health and Safety matters.

Ensure contractor pre-qualification.

Recognise training and KPI's for all

Precinct staff.


As developments progress and near

completion, health and safety is

increasing and remains a strong focus

for the business.

Appropriate monitoring and reporting

policies are in place to mitigate any

potential risk.

ANNUAL REPORT 2018

MANAGEMENT FEE STRUCTURE

MANAGEMENT SERVICES AGREEMENT

The management services agreement with AMP Haumi

Management Limited was entered into on corporatisation in

2010 (

the Management Agreement

). The Management

Agreement details the material services that are to be

performed, and fees charged, by AMP Haumi Management

Limited in its capacity as manager of Precinct. The Management

Agreement was amended in 2011 and 2016.

A copy of the Management Services Agreement as amended is

available on the Precinct website.

MANAGEMENT SERVICES FEE

The manager is entitled to three fees under the Management

Agreement:

• a base management services fee;

• a performance fee; and

• additional services fees.

BASE MANAGEMENT SERVICES FEE

The base management services fee is payable in three tiers and

calculated by reference to the Value of Investment Property.

Value of Investment Property ("VIP") means, the total value of all

real property assets owned or leased by Precinct as determined

in accordance with GAAP. Adjustments for revaluations, capital

expenditure, acquisitions and disposals are made on a pro rata

basis each month.

Development properties, including land, are excluded from the

VIP. A property is classified as a development property if it is

under construction or is vacant and undergoing (or likely to

undergo) refurbishment work during the year. This classification is

for the purposes of calculating AMP Haumi Management's

limited base management services fee only and does not in any

way classify the tenantability or otherwise of a property.

Refurbishment work includes all design and other pre-contract

investigation and consultant work.

The base management services fee is payable in respect of

these properties upon receipt of a certificate of practical

completion for each property.

The three tiers of payment are as follows:

• 0.55% per annum of the VIP to the extent that the VIP is less

than or equal to $1billion; plus

• 0.45% per annum of the VIP to the extent that the VIP is

between $1,000,000,001 and $1.5billion; plus

• 0.35% per annum of the VIP to the extent that the VIP

exceeds $1.5billion;

plus GST (if any).

The base management services fee is paid to the manager

monthly in arrears in cash.

PERFORMANCE FEE

The performance fee is based on Precinct’s relative

outperformance over other NZX listed property entities. Key

features of the performance fee are:

• The performance fee is payable quarterly in arrears and in

cash.

• Precinct’s quarterly performance (expressed as a percentage

return) is determined, based on the 5 day volume weighted

average Precinct share price movement on NZSX at the open

and close of that quarter plus gross distributions paid in the

quarter (“Shareholder Return”).

• Precinct’s quarterly performance is then benchmarked

against an NZX Property Index (excluding Precinct) return

(calculated including the value of imputation credits of

constituent members of that index), also expressed as a

percentage return (“Benchmark Return”).

• “Outperformance” (or “underperformance”) is determined,

being the difference between the Shareholder Return and

the Benchmark Return.

An “Initial Amount” (or “Deficit”) is then determined, being 10%

of that Outperformance (or underperformance) multiplied by an

amount reflecting Precinct’s market capitalisation for that

quarter. The Initial Amount (or Deficit) is then credited to the

“Carrying Account”.

• The performance fee for any quarter is then equal to the

credit balance (if any) in the Carrying Account at that time,

subject to two limitations:

- the performance fee in any quarter is limited to the

“Performance Cap”, which is, effectively, 0.125% of an

amount reflecting Precinct’s market capitalisation for that

quarter. The extent to which the performance fee would

otherwise have exceeded the Performance Cap will

remain in the Carrying Account and be carried forward to

the following quarter; and

- no performance fee is payable in respect of a quarter if

Precinct’s absolute Shareholder Return in that quarter is

negative, even if it is above the Benchmark Return. Rather,

the Initial Amount (calculated by reference to the

Outperformance in that quarter) will be credited to the

Carrying Account and carried forward to the following

quarter. Any Initial Amount credited to the Carrying

Account which is not used up in paying performance fees

or in off-setting subsequent Deficits will effectively expire

two years after it is credited to the Carrying Account.

Similarly, any Deficit debited against the Carrying Account

which is not used up in off-setting subsequent Initial

Amounts will also effectively expire two years after it is

debited against the Carrying Account.

55
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

MANAGEMENT SERVICES

BASE MANAGEMENT SERVICES

The base management services to be provided by the manager

include:

• Corporate and fund management services, being, in general,

those services which are necessary as part of the day-to-day

management of a major corporate enterprise including the

provision of support to the board, company secretarial

matters, reporting, engaging and dealing with advisers,

managing payments and accounts, financial management

and reporting, record keeping, Listing Rules and regulatory

compliance, capital management and research and

monitoring.

• Portfolio and asset management services, being, in general,

those services which are necessary as part of managing a

major property portfolio including identifying opportunities,

submitting proposals to the board, managing the

implementation of board approved proposals, performance

monitoring, budgeting, reporting, relationship management,

development and implementation of annual asset

management plans and documentation management.

The manager is permitted to sub-contract some or all of the base

management services, but only with the board’s consent (not to

be unreasonably withheld). The manager will continue to be

responsible for delivery of any sub-contracted services.

ADDITIONAL SERVICES

In addition to the base management services, the manager is

also responsible for providing additional services to Precinct,

relating to property and facilities management, leasing,

development management, project management and delivery

and property acquisition and divestment services (additional

services).

The additional services may be provided by the manager or any

person approved by the manager, provided such party has

sufficient expertise and resources available to it to perform the

service. No person may be engaged to perform additional

services without board approval or authorisation under

delegated authorities approved by the board.

The additional services are not included within the base

management services fee payable under the Management

Agreement and are subject to a market review every two years.

The next market review is due in September 2018. The fees for

these services are payable by Precinct and are detailed within

the Remuneration Report.

REIMBURSEMENT OF COSTS

The manager is also entitled to be reimbursed for specified items

of expenditure incurred on Precinct’s behalf (these costs are not

included within the fees payable under the Management

Agreement).

RESOURCING

Precinct does not employ any staff, including senior executives.

All personnel, including Precinct’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief

Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer, are provided by

the manager – which is responsible for providing access to, or

otherwise employing, all staff necessary to perform its obligations.

Although Precinct does not employ its own staff, the manager

must consult with the board regarding the appointment, removal

and remuneration of the Chief Executive Officer, Chief

Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Furthermore, the

manager must:

• Ensure that certain key personnel are dedicated to, and work

exclusively in providing services to, Precinct, unless agreed

otherwise by the board.

• Ensure that the employment or secondment arrangements

relating to certain key personnel require them to act in the

best interests of, and for the benefit of, Precinct and its

subsidiaries.

TERM AND TERMINATION

The Management Agreement has no fixed term and may be

terminated in the following ways:

By either party if the other party commits or is or becomes

subject to a default event. The default events are insolvency

type situations and circumstances which lead to a party’s

unremedied material breach of the Management Agreement. In

the case of the manager, a material breach:

• is a breach or series of related breaches which in aggregate

have a material and adverse effect on Precinct’s financial

performance, business or assets and which is unremedied or

not compensated for within 30 business days following

delivery of a detailed notice to the manager by Precinct;

• is deemed to include fraud by the manager which has a

material adverse effect on Precinct which is incapable of

compensation; and

• is deemed to include a change of control which results in a

party (other than AMP Capital Investors (New Zealand)

Limited or Haumi Development Limited Partnership, or any of

their related parties) acquiring the power to exercise or

control the exercise of 75% or more of the voting securities of

the manager, without Precinct’s written consent. Provided

that in each case Precinct may only exercise this right of

termination if the termination has been approved by a

special resolution of Precinct's shareholders (not including the

manager or its “Associated Persons”).

• by the manager on six months’ written notice to Precinct.

Precinct does not have a unilateral right to terminate the

Management Agreement at its discretion.

If requested by Precinct, the manager will provide

disengagement services to Precinct following termination in

certain circumstances to assist in the transition to a new

manager or self-management.

CALL OPTION

(Transfer of manager’s interests in the Management Agreement)

Any person who acquires (or acquires the right or power to

exercise or control the votes attached to) 50% or more of the

voting securities of Precinct, has a six-week period to exercise an

option to purchase the manager’s interests in the Management

Agreement (subject to certain terms and conditions as set out in

the Management Agreement). If the consideration for the

assignment of the Management Agreement cannot be agreed,

it will be set by expert determination.

BOARD APPOINTMENT RIGHTS

The manager is entitled to appoint up to two directors to the

board and to substitute or remove such directors by notice in

writing.

This director appointment right has been exercised and is subject

to the Listing Rules (and the requirements of any ruling granted

by the NZX from time to time). Further information on the

manager appointed directors is set out in the Corporate

Governance Section of this report (see Principle 2 - Board

Composition and Performance).

TAKEOVER CODE EXEMPTIONS

INTRODUCTION

This section contains information required by the Takeovers Code

(AMP NZ Office Limited) Exemption Notice 2010 which was

obtained when Precinct corporatised from a unit trust in 2010.

Unless otherwise stated, the information provided in this section

of the report is as at 30 June 2018.

Any term capitalised in this section but undefined has the

meaning given to it in the above 2010 Exemption Notice.

PRE-EMPTIVE ACQUISITIONS

AMP Capital Investors International Holdings Limited (AMPCI)

and Haumi Company Limited (as general partner of the Haumi

(NZ) Limited Partnership (HNZLP)) are the current parties to a

deed dated 27 September 2010, which records certain pre-

emptive rights arrangements in respect of Precinct voting

securities held by HNZLP and AMPCI (in its own right – not in its

capacity as manager of a fund) (the

Pre-emptive

Arrangements

). The Pre-emptive Arrangements are as follows:

• If HNZLP wishes to sell, transfer or dispose of all or any of its

Precinct voting securities (or any interest (whether legal or

beneficial) in them) to any third person, or AMPCI wishes to

sell, transfer or dispose of all or any of its Precinct voting

securities held by it in its own right, and not in its capacity as a

manager of a fund, (or any interest (whether legal or

beneficial) in them) to any third person, then HNZLP or AMPCI

must first offer to sell those Precinct voting securities to the

other party at a price specified by the offeror. The offeree has

15 working days to decide whether to accept the offer.

• If the other party does not accept the offer or give notice

within the 15 working day period, then the party wishing to

sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of its Precinct voting

securities can sell the relevant Precinct voting securities to a

third party within 90 working days, provided that such sale

must be for a price and on terms no more favourable than

those offered to AMPCI or HNZLP (as the case may be).

• In addition, in the event of a “change of control”, or if a

“relevant event” occurs in respect of either HNZLP or AMPCI,

then that party is deemed to have offered to sell its Precinct

shares to the other at either an agreed price, or, if no such

agreement can be reached, such amount, per Precinct

voting security, as is equal to the volume weighted average

price of Precinct voting securities traded on the NZSX during

the period of five trading days immediately preceding the

date on which the relevant sale notice is given. In the case of

AMPCI, it will only be deemed to have offered to sell its

Precinct shares held by it in its own right, and not in its

capacity as manager of a fund.

• These Pre-emptive Arrangements cease to apply if AMP

Haumi Management Limited ceases to be manager of

Precinct.

Information on the number of voting securities that have been

acquired by the Combined AMPCI Parties under the Pre-emptive

Acquisitions, the percentage of all voting securities on issue that

are held or controlled by the AMPCI Parties, and the maximum

number and percentages of voting securities after the Pre-

emptive Acquisitions is set out below. Further information on the

maximum number and percentages of voting securities that may

be held by the AMPCI Parties (and their Associates) after the

acquisition of voting securities under the Combined Transactions

is set out on the following page.

FUNDS MANAGEMENT ACQUISITIONS

A reference in this section of the report to a Funds Management

Acquisition is any acquisition of Precinct voting securities by a

Managed Fund. A Managed Fund is any investment fund, entity

or scheme managed by AMPCI or any subsidiary of AMPCI in the

ordinary course of the funds management business of AMPCI (or

a subsidiary), and includes any manager, trustee, or custodian of

any such fund.

The persons whose increase in voting control results or may result

from any Fund Management Acquisition are:

• the AMPCI Parties;

• any trustee or custodian of a Managed Fund; and

• in certain circumstances, where a Managed Fund is operated

for the benefit of a single client, that client (as a result of

having the ability, under the investment management

arrangements with the relevant AMPCI Party, to direct the

exercise of voting rights controlled by the relevant AMPCI

Party in respect of that Managed Fund).

The percentage of Precinct voting securities at any time held or

controlled by the AMPCI Parties as a result of the Funds

Management Acquisitions has not exceeded 4.9% of the total

Precinct voting securities on issue.

Information on the maximum numbers and percentage of all

voting securities on issue that may be held or controlled by the

AMPCI Parties (and their Associates) after any Fund

Management Acquisition or after the acquisition of voting

securities under the Combined Transactions is set out on the

following page.

EMPLOYEE SHARE SCHEME ACQUISITIONS

The manager has established the AMP Haumi LTI Bonus Scheme

(

LTI Scheme

) as a long term incentive scheme for selected

employees of the manager (

Eligible Employees

) who are

engaged in operating Precinct’s business. The key terms of the

LTI Scheme are:

• Eligible Employees are invited to borrow an interest free

amount (Loan) from the manager. The Loan amount is

determined based on the agreed performance criteria for

the LTI Scheme (which is based on the performance of

Precinct and the manager).

• The Loan is advanced to AMP Haumi LTI Trustee Limited (the

Employee Share Scheme Administrator), who uses the Loan to

purchase Precinct shares on-market (the Employee Share

Scheme Acquisitions), and then holds those Precinct shares

on trust for the Eligible Employees in accordance with the

rules of the LTI Scheme.

• Participants who remain employed by the manager for the

duration of the Loan period receive a bonus equal to the

amount of the Loan, which may be used to repay the Loan.

The rules of the LTI Scheme contain a mechanism which

protects participants from changes in market value of the

Precinct shares.

• Participants are entitled to Precinct shares held for them by

the Employee Share Scheme Administrator only once they

have satisfied the vesting requirements of the LTI Scheme.

• Participants who cease to be employed by the manager

before satisfying the vesting requirements of the LTI Scheme

are not entitled to the Precinct shares held for them by the

Employee Share Scheme Administrator. Those participants are

required to repay their Loan when their employment

terminates, but the Employee Share Scheme Administrator will

sell the Precinct shares held for that participant and use the

sale proceeds towards repayment of the Loan.

Employee Share Scheme Acquisitions will or may result in the

Employee Share Scheme Administrator, the manager or the

Eligible Employees increasing their voting control of Precinct.

The percentage of voting securities at any time held or

controlled by the Employee Share Scheme Administrator and the

manager as a result of the Employee Share Scheme has not

exceeded 1% of the total voting securities on issue.

Information on the maximum percentages of voting securities

that may be held or controlled by the Employee Share Scheme

Administrator or the manager (and their Associates) after any

Employee Share Scheme Acquisition is set out on the following

page. Further information on the maximum percentage of voting

securities that may be held by the Employee Share Scheme

Administrator or the manager (and their Associates) after the

NZX RULINGS AND WAIVERS

This section contains information required by NZX Markets

Supervision Waiver Decisions.

2010 CORPORATISATION

This section contains information required by NZX Markets

Supervision Waiver Decisions.

NZX granted, subject to a number of conditions, waivers from,

and made rulings in respect of, the following Listing Rules in

respect of Precinct:

A waiver from Listing Rule 9.2, for any requirement for any

acquisition of the manager’s interest in the Management

Agreement pursuant to the right of any person (under the

Management Agreement) who acquires more than 50% of

Precinct shares, to be approved by an ordinary resolution of

shareholders under Listing Rule 9.2.1. This waiver is conditional on:

• the terms and conditions of the Management Services

Agreement not being materially altered as part of the

transaction, (unless such alterations are approved by an

ordinary resolution of shareholders under Listing Rule 9.2 or

otherwise made in accordance with any waiver granted by

NZX) and;

• the effects and conditions of the waiver, being set out in

each annual report, offer document or prospectus of

Precinct. It was also conditional on those details being set out

in the offer document for the proposal to corporatise ANZO,

and on the new management agreement being approved

by unit holders of ANZO.

A waiver from Listing Rule 3.3, to the extent required, to permit:

• the manager to appoint up to two directors, and those

directors to be excluded from the obligation to retire pursuant

to Listing Rule 3.3.11;

• to permit any shareholder holding more than 15% of Precinct

shares (15%+ Shareholder) to appoint one director, even if

that shareholder is an associate of the manager, and any

such director to be excluded from the obligation to retire

pursuant to Listing Rule 3.3.11;

• any director appointed by the manager to be excluded from

the number of directors upon which is based the calculation

of the number of directors required to retire under Listing Rule

3.3.11.

This waiver is conditional on the following:

• the ability of the manager to appoint two directors being

approved by unit holders of ANZO (at the meeting to

approve the trust converting to a corporate structure);

• Precinct’s constitution containing certain provisions, and

these remaining in effect and materially unaltered. These

included provisions to the effect that:

a. a majority of the directors must be independent of the

manager and persons who control the manager;

b. if a 15%+ Shareholder appoints a director, the board must

have a minimum of seven directors;

c. no 15%+ Shareholder who has exercised a right to appoint

a director shall have the right to vote on the election of

other directors (which was itself a separate condition);

d. any director appointed by a 15%+ Shareholder must be

included in the number of directors upon which is based

the calculation of the number of directors required to retire

under Listing Rule 3.3.11.

• the waiver, its effects and conditions are set out in each

annual report and offer document of Precinct;

• each director appointed by the manager is identified in

Precinct’s annual report as having been so appointed, and

as not being subject to retirement by rotation;

• if the manager elects not to appoint two directors (and

removes, or procures the resignation of, any directors

appointed by it), the conditions as to election of directors

independent of the manager shall not apply.

NON-STANDARD DESIGNATION

Pursuant to these waivers, Precinct’s constitution contains certain

provisions which are not ordinarily contained in the constitution

of a company listed on the NZX, including provisions allowing for

the appointment of directors by the manager and by any

shareholder holding more than 15% of Precinct shares. Precinct

has been given a non-standard designation by NZX due to the

inclusion of these provisions in its constitution.

REMUNERATION OF PRECINCT DIRECTORS

The remuneration of Precinct directors was established by the Remuneration Committee having reference to remuneration paid to

directors of comparable New Zealand listed entities. There is a cap on director remuneration of $580,000 per annum beginning

1 November. The actual fees paid for the year ending 31 October 2017 were $461,020 which is below this cap. The fees paid vary

according to the responsibilities and committee participation of each independent director.

The board policy is for directors’ remuneration to increase annually in line with inflation and to be reviewed every two years to ensure

that it remains at market levels to attract and retain high quality independent directors.

Only independent directors have received board remuneration from the company for their services as directors. Rob Campbell was

paid $3,698 for his services on sub committees during the year.

From time to time the board may establish further subcommittees to consider specific issues or transactions. Membership of these

committees may result in additional fees being payable at a rate ranging from $290 – $330 per hour. During the year ended 30 June

2018, $15,300 in committee fees were paid to the due diligence committee (30 June 2017: $7,995).

No other remuneration or benefit was provided by the group during the period to any director or former director of any group

member.

MANAGEMENT REMUNERATION

Management remuneration is not an expense of Precinct as management are engaged by the manager and paid out of the fees

paid by Precinct described above. However, the board of Precinct believes that it is important for shareholders to understand the

structure of management remuneration as it is an important determinant of management retention, motivation and alignment

between management and shareholders. The disclosures set out below have therefore been made by the manager on a voluntary

basis in the interests of providing maximum transparency for Precinct shareholders.

Under the MSA, the board of Precinct must be consulted on management remuneration.

Remuneration of the CEO, COO and CFO comprises base salary, short term incentive payments (“STI”) and long term incentive

payments (“LTI”).

CEO REMUNERATION

Scott Pritchard was appointed Chief Executive Officer in September 2010. His remuneration for the year ended 30 June 2018 comprises:

• A fixed base salary which is benchmarked annually;

• A discretionary short-term incentive payment which was made in accordance with the description below under the heading short

term remuneration; and

• A long-term incentive payment (where vested) which is outlined in further detail on the following page.

The CEO's remuneration is approved by the Management Company Board and is paid in line with The Employee Remuneration Policy.

PwC was appointed by the Management Company Board in 2016 as a recognised independent party in order to undertake

remuneration benchmarking in respect to the CEO and other senior executive roles.

Although all remuneration is paid by AMP Haumi Management Limited (the Manager "AHML"), not Precinct. The CEO and AHML have

agreed to disclose the CEO’s remuneration to shareholders in the interest of best practice. Details of the nature and amount of each

element of the remuneration of the CEO is set out below. All amounts are in New Zealand dollars.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the year ended 30 June 2018

PRECINCT PROPERTIES NEW ZEALAND LIMITED

ANNUAL REPORT 2018

1. REPORTING ENTITY

Precinct Properties New Zealand Limited (Precinct) is incorporated in New Zealand and is registered under the New Zealand

Companies Act 1993.

Precinct is an FMC reporting entity for the purposes of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013.

These audited financial statements are those of Precinct, its three 100% owned subsidiaries and its joint venture (the Group). Precinct's

50% investment in the joint venture, Generator New Zealand Limited, is accounted for using the equity method.

The Group's principal activity is investment in predominantly prime CBD properties in New Zealand. Precinct is managed by AMP Haumi

Management Limited (the manager).

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with NZ GAAP. For the purposes of complying with NZ GAAP the Group is

a for-profit entity. The financial statements comply with New Zealand equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (’NZ

IFRS’). The financial statements also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (‘IFRS’).

The financial statements have been prepared:

• On a historical basis except for financial instruments, investment and development properties which are measured at fair value.

• Using the New Zealand Dollar functional and reporting currency.

• On a GST exclusive basis, except for receivables and payables that are stated inclusive of GST.

All financial information has been presented in millions, unless otherwise stated.

3. BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements comprise Precinct, its subsidiary companies and its joint venture.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all inter-company balances and transactions, income and expenses and profit or

losses resulting from intra-group transactions have been eliminated in full.

4. NEW STANDARDS, AMENDMENTS AND INTERPRETATIONS

Precinct has chosen not to early adopt the following standards that have been issued but are not yet effective:

• NZ IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments: Classification and Measurement (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018).

This standard replaces the current guidance in NZ IAS 39 Financial Instruments - Recognition and Measurement. NZ IFRS 9 addresses

the clasification, measurement and recognition of financial assets and financial liabilities.

Precinct has assessed the impact of this standard on the group and no significant changes to the recognition and reporting of

financial instruments compared with existing accounting policies will occur.

• NZ IFRS 15 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018). This

standard establishes principles for reporting useful information to users of financial statements about the nature, amount, timing and

uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity’s contracts with customers.

Precinct has assessed the impact of this standard on the group and no significant changes to the recognition of revenue

compared with existing accounting policies will occur.

• NZ IFRS 16 - Leases (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019). This standard replaces the current guidance

in NZ IAS 17. NZ IFRS 16 requires a lessee to recognise a lease liability reflecting future lease payments and a 'right-of-use' asset for

virtually all lease contracts.

Lessor reporting

Precinct has assessed the impact of this standard on the group and no significant changes for reporting as a lessor (i.e. the owner of

buildings) compared with existing accounting policies will occur.

Lessee reporting

Whilst the majority of Precinct's buildings are freehold, there are two Wellington properties where Precinct is a lessee under

occupational ground leases. NZ IFRS 16 requires lessee's to recognise a 'right-of-use asset' representing the fair value of the

occupational ground leases and a lease liability reflecting the present value of future lease payments for the occupational ground

leases. Precinct is currently assessing the financial impact of this change. There will be no change to the cash flows recognised as a

result of the adoption of the new standard. Other financial impacts are not expected to be material.

5. CHANGES TO ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND DISCLOSURE OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

No changes to accounting policy 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.

6. FAIR VALUE ESTIMATION

Precinct classifies its fair value measurement using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the

measurements. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:

75
• Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active market for identical assets or liabilities.

• Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (by price)

or indirectly (derived from prices).

• Level 3 - Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

7. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

In preparing Precinct’s financial statements, management continually makes judgements, estimates and assumptions based on

experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have an impact on Precinct.

All judgements, estimates and assumptions made are believed to be reasonable based on the most current set of circumstances

available to management. Actual results may differ from the judgements, estimates and assumptions made by management.

The significant judgements, estimates and assumptions made in the preparation of these financial statements are in relation to:

i. Investment and development properties - refer note 9

ii. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities - refer note 11

8. SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AND TRANSACTIONS DURING THE YEAR

Precinct's financial position and performance was affected by the following events and transactions that occurred during the

reporting year:

i. Convertible notes

On 27 September 2017, Precinct raised $150 million through a subordinated convertible note issue with a conversion price cap of $1.40

per share. Refer to Note 15 for details.

ii. Senior secured bonds

On 27 November 2017, Precinct raised $100 million through a New Zealand public bond issue. Refer to Note 15 for details.

iii. Sale of 10 Brandon Street, Wellington

On 23 April 2018, Precinct entered into a conditional agreement for the sale of 10 Brandon Street, Wellington for $10.2 million. The sale is

subject to ground lessor approvals and is due to settle in August 2018.

iv. Sale of 50% interest in ANZ Centre, Auckland

On 29 June 2018, Precinct entered into a binding agreement for the sale of a 50% interest in ANZ Centre, Auckland for $181.0 million.

The sale transaction remains subject to Overseas Investment Office approval.

Accounting policies

Investment properties

Initially, investment properties are measured at cost including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition investment

properties are stated at fair value. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair values of investment properties are included in

profit or loss in the year in which they arise.

Development properties

Investment properties that are being constructed or developed for future use are classified as development properties. All costs

directly associated with the purchase and construction of a property and all subsequent capital expenditure is capitalised.

Subsequent to initial recognition development properties are stated at fair value. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair

value of development properties are included in profit or loss in the year in which they arise.

Valuation of investment and development properties

External, independent valuers, having appropriate recognised professional qualifications and recent experience in the location

and category of the property being valued, value Precinct’s investment property portfolio at least every 12 months. The fair values

are based on market values, being the estimated amount for which a property could be exchanged on the date of the valuation

between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each

acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion.

value of development properties are included in profit or loss in the year in which they arise.

Valuation of investment and development properties

External, independent valuers, having appropriate recognised professional qualifications and recent experience in the location

and category of the property being valued, value Precinct’s investment property portfolio at least every 12 months. The fair values

are based on market values, being the estimated amount for which a property could be exchanged on the date of the valuation

between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each

acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion.

ANNUAL REPORT 2018

Fair value measurement, valuation techniques and inputs

Precinct’s properties were valued as at 30 June 2018 by independent registered valuers Colliers International, Bayleys, JLL and CBRE.

During the year there were no transfers of investment or development properties between levels of the fair value hierarchy. The

valuation techniques used in measuring the fair value of investment property, as well as the significant unobservable inputs used are as

follows:

Valuations reflect, where appropriate:

• The type of tenants actually in occupation or responsible for meeting lease commitments or likely to be in occupation after letting

vacant accommodation, and the market’s general perception of their creditworthiness;

• The allocation of maintenance and insurance responsibilities between Precinct and the lessee; and

• The remaining economic life of the property. When rent reviews or lease renewals are pending with anticipated reversionary

increases or decreases, it is assumed that all notices and where appropriate counter-notices have been served validly and within

the appropriate time.

81
Valuation methodologies

Income capitalisation approachDetermines fair value by capitalising the net income at a

capitalisation rate reflecting the nature, location and tenancy

profile of the asset. Subsequent near term capital adjustments

are then made which typically include letting-up allowances for

vacancy and pending expiries, capital expenditure allowances

and under/over renting reversions.

Discounted cash flow analysisA financial modelling methodology assessing the long-term return

that is likely to be derived from an asset. Explicit assumptions are

required for rental income growth, leasing up metrics on expiries

along with terminal value at the end of the cash flow period,

typically a 10 year horizon. A market-derived discount rate is then

applied to the assessed cash flows and discounted to a present

value to determine fair value.

Sales comparison approachFair value is determined by applying positive and negative

adjustments to recently transacted assets of a similar nature.

Residual approachA methodology normally used for property which is undergoing,

or is expected to undergo, redevelopment. Fair value is

determined by firstly calculating a gross realisation which

forecasts what a property is worth on completion and deducts all

costs associated with the development of the property. These

costs typically include letting and sale costs, a market required

profit and risk margin, construction costs and finance costs.

Unobservable inputs within the income capitalisation approach

Gross market rentThe estimated rental amount which a tenancy within a property

is expected to achieve under a new arm’s length transaction

including a share of the property operating expenses.

Core capitalisation rateThe income return produced by an investment expressed as a

percentage of the capital value. The capitalisation rate which is

applied to a property’s net market income is determined through

analysis of comparable sales transactions.

Unobservable inputs within the discounted cash flow analysis

Discount rateThe rate of return used to convert a property’s future cash flows

to present value. The discount rate is determined through analysis

of comparable sales.

Terminal capitalisation rateThe rate used to convert income into an indication of the

anticipated value of the property at the end of the cash flow

period.

Rental growth rateThe growth rate applied to the market rental over the cash flow

period.

Additional unobservable inputs within the residual approach

Profit and risk allowanceThe market level of return for a typical developer to receive on

their outlay in order to undertake the respective development

having regard to the relative risks (e.g. leasing progress, fixed

price contract, programme/staging) of the project at that point

in time.

Forecast development costsAll costs associated with the development of the property. These

costs typically include letting and sale costs, a market required

profit and risk margin, construction costs and finance costs.

Deferred tax assets

Precinct has recognised deferred tax assets relating to the fair value of financial instruments.

Deferred tax liabilities

Precinct has recognised deferred tax liabilities relating to the depreciation claw-back which would arise on the sale of investment

properties at carrying value.

In estimating this deferred tax liability, Precinct has relied on independent valuers' assessments of the market value of the land and

improvements and an internal assessment of the market value of fixtures and fittings having regard to the useful lives of each category

of fixtures and fittings. Recent sales have suggested that the previous estimation process for the market value of fixtures and fittings did

not fully reflect the net selling price allocation process that occurs on sale of a property. During the year Precinct has revised the

process which has resulted in an increase to the deferred tax liability of $20.0 million.

Imputation credit account

Imputation credits available for use as at 30 June 2018 are $2,995,126 (2017: $1,943,448).

Accounting policy

Taxation

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent

that it relates to items recognised directly in equity, in which case it is recognised in equity.

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 recognised using the balance sheet method, providing for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of

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

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.

For deferred tax liabilities or assets arising on investment property measured at fair value, it is assumed that the carrying amounts of

investment property will be recovered through sale.

12. RECONCILIATION OF NET PROFIT AFTER TAX TO NET OPERATING INCOME

Net operating income is net profit after tax, before revaluations on investment properties, revaluations of derivative financial

Precinct has committed funding of $1,182.9 million (2017: $1,032.9 million) including the NZ retail bonds, convertible note and US private

placement.

All lenders (excluding convertible noteholders) have the benefit of security over certain assets of the Group. The Group has given a

negative pledge which provides that it will not permit any security interest in favour of a party other than the lenders to exist over more

than 15% of the value of its properties.

85
To substantially remove currency risk, US private placement proceeds have been fully swapped back to New Zealand dollars.

Accounting policy

Interest bearing liabilities

Bank loans and the NZ retail bond are recognised initially at fair value less any attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial

recognition, these liabilities are stated at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

The US private placement is recognised at fair value including translation to NZD with any gains or losses recognised in the profit or

loss as they arise. This fair value is determined using swap models and present value techniques with observable inputs such as

interest rate and cross-currency curves. This measurement falls into level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The convertible note embedded financial derivate is recognised at fair value with any gains or losses recognised in the profit or

loss as they arise. This fair value is determined using the black-scholes model with observable inputs such as Precinct's share price

and it historic standard deviation, the convertible note strike price and the risk free rate . This measurement falls into level 2 of the

fair value hierarchy.

Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised as part of

the cost of that asset.

Accounting policy

Derivative financial instruments

Precinct uses derivative financial instruments (interest rate and cross currency swaps) to manage its exposure to interest rate and

foreign exchange risks arising from operational, financing and investment activities.

Derivative financial instruments are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently re-measured and carried at fair value. They

are carried as assets when the fair value is positive and liabilities when the fair value is negative. The gain or loss on re-

measurement to fair value is recognised directly in profit or loss.

The fair value is the estimated amount that Precinct would receive or pay to terminate the swap at the balance date, taking into

account current rates and creditworthiness of the swap counterparties. This is determined using swap models and present value

techniques with observable inputs such as interest rate and cross-currency curves. The fair value of derivatives fall into level 2 of

the fair value hierarchy.

17. CAPITAL COMMITMENTS

Precinct has $233.6m of capital commitments as at 30 June 2018 (2017: $405.3m) relating to construction contracts.

a) Base management services fee

The base management services fee structure is as follows:

• 0.55% of the value of the investment properties to the extent that the value of the investment properties is less than or equal to

$1 billion; plus

• 0.45% of the value of the investment properties to the extent that the value of the investment properties is between $1 billion and

$1.5 billion; plus

• 0.35% of the value of the investment properties to the extent that the value of the investment properties exceeds $1.5 billion.

These fees are expensed through indirect other expenses in the year in which they arise.

b) Performance fee

The performance fee is based on Precinct's quarterly adjusted equity total returns relative to its peers in the NZ listed property sector as

measured by the NZX listed property index. The performance fee is calculated as 10% of Precinct's quarterly performance in excess of

a benchmark index, subject to an outperformance cap of 1.25% per quarter and after taking into account any brought forward

surpluses or deficits from prior quarters. No performance fee is payable in quarters where equity total returns are negative. As at

30 June 2018 there is a notional performance fee deficit of $918,083 to be carried forward to the calculation of performance fees in

future quarters (2017: $11,388,088 deficit).

These fees are expensed through indirect other expenses in the year in which they arise.

87
c) Leasing fees

Precinct pays the Manager leasing fees where the manager has negotiated leases instead of or alongside a real estate agent.

Leasing fees are capitalised to the respective investment or development property in the Statement of Financial Position and

amortised over the term certain life of the lease.

d) Development manager fees

Precinct pays development manager fees where the manager acts as development manager on Precinct developments.

These fees are capitalised to the respective investment or development property in the Statement of Financial Position.

e) Acquisition and disposal fees

Precinct pays fees to the manager for managing the sale or purchase of properties instead of or alongside a real estate agent.

Acquisition fees are capitalised to the respective investment or development property in the Statement of Financial Position.

Disposal fees are expensed through net realised gain or loss on sale of investment properties in the year in which they arise.

f) Property and facilities management fee

Precinct pays a property and facilities management fee on a cost recovery basis to the manager.

These fees are expensed through direct operating expenses in the year in which they arise.

g) Other transactions with the manager

Precinct does not employ personnel in its own right. Under the terms of the Management Services Agreement, the manager is

appointed to manage and administer Precinct. The manager is responsible for the remuneration of personnel providing management

services to Precinct. Precinct's Directors are considered to be the key management personnel and received Directors' fees of $445,720

in 2018 (2017: $443,813).

Precinct received rental income from AMP Haumi Management Limited, AMP Capital Investors (New Zealand) Limited and AMP

Services (NZ) Limited, being the Manager or companies related to the Manager for premises leased in PwC Tower, AMP Centre and

Dimension Data House. Total rent received by Precinct from these parties during the year was $3,388,399 (2017: $3,223,101). As at

30 June 2018 an amount of $1,837 (2017: $208) was owing to Precinct from AMP Services (NZ) Limited and AMP Haumi Management

Limited.

h) Related party debts

No related party debts have been written off or forgiven during the year (2017: $nil).

21. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The Group's capital includes ordinary shares, retained earnings and interest bearing liabilities. When managing capital, management's

objective is to ensure Precinct continues as a going concern as well as to maintain optimal returns to share holders and benefits for

other creditors. Management also aims to maintain a capital structure that ensures the lowest cost of capital is available to Precinct.

Precinct meets its objectives for managing capital through its investment decisions on the acquisition and disposal of assets, dividend

policy, share buy backs and issuance of new shares.

Precinct’s banking covenants require total liabilities (excluding deferred tax, derivative financial instruments and sub-ordinated debt

liability) to not exceed 50% of total assets. Precinct has complied with this requirement during this year and the previous year.

Precinct’s policy in respect of capital management is reviewed regularly.

a) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that fluctuations in interest rates impact the Group's financial performance, future cash flows or the fair value

of its financial instruments.

Precinct’s policy is to manage its interest rates using a mix of fixed and variable rate debt. Precinct’s policy is to keep at least 60% of its

interest bearing liabilities at fixed rates of interest. To manage this mix Precinct enters into interest rate swaps, in which Precinct agrees

to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed and variable rates for interest calculated by reference to an agreed-

upon notional principal amount. These swaps are designed to economically hedge underlying debt obligations.

The following table demonstrates the sensitivity to a reasonably possible change in interest rates on interest bearing liabilities, after the

impact of hedging with all other variables held constant.

b) Credit risk

Credit risk represents the risk that the counterparty to the financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the Group

to incur a financial loss. Financial instruments which subject Precinct to credit risk principally consist of cash, debtors and derivative

financial instruments in an asset position. Precinct’s exposure to credit risk is equal to the carrying value of the financial instruments.

Precinct conducts credit assessments to determine credit worthiness prior to entering into lease agreements. In addition, debtor

balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that Precinct’s exposure to bad debts is not significant.

There is no significant concentration of credit risk as financial assets are spread amongst a number of counterparties.

c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that Precinct will experience difficulty in either realising assets or otherwise raising sufficient funds to satisfy

commitments associated with financial liabilities.

Precinct monitors and evaluates liquidity requirements on an ongoing basis and generates sufficient cash flows from its operating

activities to meet its obligations arising from its financial liabilities and has bank facilities available to cover potential shortfalls. The

Group’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations when they fall due

under both normal and stress conditions. The Group manages liquidity by maintaining adequate committed credit facilities and

spreading maturities in accordance with internal policy.

The tables below analyse Precinct’s financial liabilities (principal and interest) and net cash flows of derivative financial instruments into

Accounting policy

Derecognition of financial instruments

Financial assets are derecognised when the right to receive cash flows from the financial asset has expired or when the entity

transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of the financial asset. If the entity neither retains nor transfers substantially all of the

risks and rewards, it derecognises the asset if it has transferred control of the asset. Financial liabilities are derecognised when the

obligation has expired or been transferred.

23. SEGMENT INFORMATION

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. Precinct is internally reported as a single operating

segment to the chief operating decision-maker hence no further segments have been reported.

24. EVENTS AFTER BALANCE DATE

On 10 July 2018 the board approved a refinance of Precinct's bank borrowings which extended the weighted average term to expiry

of Precinct's bank facilities to over four years.

On 15 August 2018 the Board approved the financial statements for issue and approved the payment of a dividend of $17,561,250

(1.45 cents per share) to be paid on 28 September 2018.

On 15 August 2018 Precinct committed to the $298 million redevelopment at One Queen Street (currently HSBC House).

PRECINCT PROPERTIES NEW ZEALAND LIMITED

ANNUAL REPORT 2018

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF PRECINCT PROPERTIES NEW ZEALAND LIMITED

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Precinct Properties New Zealand Limited (“the company”) and its subsidiaries (together

“the group”) on pages 70 to 89, which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position of the group as at 30 June 2018, and

the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of

cash flows for the year then ended of the group, and the notes to the financial statements including a summary of significant

accounting policies.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements on pages 70 to 89 present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of

the group as at 30 June 2018 and its consolidated financial performance and consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in

accordance with New Zealand equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards and International Financial Reporting

Standards.

This report is made solely to the company's shareholders, as a body. Our audit has been undertaken so that we might state to the

company's shareholders those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest

extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's

shareholders as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand). Our responsibilities under those

standards are further described in the

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

section of our report.

We are independent of the group in accordance with Professional and Ethical Standard 1 (revised)

Code of Ethics for Assurance

Practitioners

issued by the New Zealand Auditing and Assurance Standards Board, and we have fulfilled our other ethical

responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.

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

Ernst & Young provides other assurance and agreed upon procedures services to the group. Partners and employees of our firm may

deal with the group on normal terms within the ordinary course of trading activities of the business of the group. We have no other

relationship with, or interest in, the group.

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, but we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. For each

matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter is provided in that context.

We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

section of the

audit report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, our audit included the performance of procedures designed to

respond to our assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements. The results of our audit procedures,

including the procedures performed to address the matters below, provide the basis for our audit opinion on the accompanying

consolidated financial statements.

91
Why significantEY Audit response

1. Valuation of investment and development properties

Information regarding the properties and their valuations is

included in Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements. As at

30 June 2018, investment properties are carried at $1,487.6 million,

development properties are carried at $838.1 million and

investment properties held for sale are carried at $191.2 million.

The investment property portfolio is important to our audit as it

represents a significant percentage of the total assets of the

group.

The valuation of the group’s investment 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 each property. The valuations are highly

dependent on forecasts and estimates. A small change in

individual property valuation assumptions when aggregated

could result in material misstatement of the financial statements.

We therefore identified the valuation of the property portfolio as a

significant audit risk.

Valuations are based on assumptions such as current and

forecast rental revenues and estimated capitalisation or discount

rates. These are used to determine a valuation range and from

this a point estimate is derived. In the case of properties which the

Group is developing or intends to develop significantly, and so

classifies as development properties, forecast development cost

and profit and risk allowance are further important assumptions.

There is also a greater level of estimation required in respect of

future rental amounts for these properties because there is a

greater percentage of tenancy area not yet subject to rental

agreements.

The group has adopted the assessed values determined by the

valuers.

In obtaining sufficient audit evidence we:

• evaluated the objectivity, independence and expertise of the

valuers.

• assessed the valuation conclusions. In doing so we considered

the valuation inputs used, including schedules of forecast

rental revenues and forecast development costs, and other

key assumptions such as capitalisation rates, rental growth

rates, discount rates and profit and risk allowances.

• involved our in-house property valuation experts to assist us in

critiquing a risk-based sample of the property valuations. This

included assessing whether key assumptions such as

capitalisation rates, rental growth rates, leasing up periods,

forecast development costs, profit and risk allowances and

discount rates fell within a reasonable range.

• assessed the adequacy of the disclosures made in respect of

the investment property portfolio valuation.

Information other than the financial statements and auditor's report

The directors of the company are responsible for the Annual Report, which includes information other than the consolidated financial

statements and auditor's report.

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of

assurance conclusion thereon.

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 during the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

If, based upon the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are

required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Directors' responsibilities for the financial statements

The directors are responsible, on behalf of the entity, for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements

in accordance with New Zealand equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards and International Financial Reporting

Standards, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of 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, on behalf of the entity, 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 cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

PRECINCT PROPERTIES NEW ZEALAND LIMITED

ANNUAL REPORT 2018

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the 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 International Standards on Auditing

(New Zealand) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are

considered material if, individually or in the 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 the auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located as External Reporting Board's

website: https://www.xrb.govt.nz/standards-for-assurance-practitioners/auditors-responsibilities/audit-report-1. This description forms
