may not sum due to rounding.


1. Stride Property Group (Stride) comprises Stride Investment Management Limited (SIML) and Stride Property

Limited (SPL). A stapled security of the Stride Property Group comprises one share in SIML and one share in SPL.



W strideproperty.co.nz

The stapled securities are quoted on the NZX Main Board under the ticker code SPG. Information presented in this

presentation is on a combined basis unless otherwise specified.

2. Distributable profit is a non-GAAP financial measure adopted by Stride to assist Stride and investors in assessing

Stride’s profit available for distribution. It is defined as net profit/(loss) before income tax, adjusted for determined

non-recurring and/or non-cash items, share of profits in associates, dividends received from associates and current

tax. Further information, including the calculation of distributable profit and the adjustments to net profit before

income tax, is set out in note 4 of the consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 30 September

2018.

3. As required by SPL’s bank facility agreement, the loan to value ratio (LVR) of 34.2% is calculated using the most

recent full independent valuations. Three properties were subject to desktop reviews and 14 were subject to full

valuations as at 30 September 2018, and the resulting movement in property values has been recognised in the

financial statements. Consequently, there is a difference between the total investment property valuation used in

the LVR calculation ($932.3m) and the total portfolio valuation stated in the consolidated statement of financial

position ($934.5m). Please refer to note 6 to the consolidated interim financial statements for further detail of the

independent valuations and desktop reviews.

amount of rent payable by each tenant, plus other amounts payable by that tenant under the terms of the relevant

lease as at 30 September 2018, annualised for the 12 month period on the basis of the occupancy level for the

relevant property as at 30 September 2018, and assuming no default by the tenant.

5. Comparable sales includes sales from tenancies which have traded for the past 24 months and includes commercial

services categories.

6. Sales data is not collected for all tenants at Silverdale Centre. Some tenants are not obliged to provide sales data

under the terms of their lease.

7. Includes NorthWest Two, Auckland, which is classified as inventory in the consolidated interim financial statements.

3 As required by SPL's bank facility agreement, the loan to value ratio of 34.2% is calculated using the most

recent full independent valuations. As at 30 September 2018, three properties were subject to desktop

reviews and 14 were subject to full valuations, and the resulting movement in property values has been

brought into the financial statements for the six months ended 30 September 2018. For the purposes of

calculating the loan to value ratio, the most recently completed full valuations (as at 31 March 2018) have

been used for those properties that were not subject to full valuations as at 30 September 2018, including

the three properties that were subject to desktop review. There is therefore a difference between the

portfolio valuation used in the loan to value ratio calculation ($932.3 million) and the portfolio value stated

in the Statement of Financial Position ($934.5 million). Please refer to note 6 to the consolidated interim

financial statements for further detail of the independent valuations and desktop reviews.

Board Refresh

On 30 July 2018, the Board announced it would continue with the refresh of

directors over the next 24 months, through to the 2020 Annual Shareholder

Meetings. As part of this refresh, Michael Stiassny retired as a director, and

two new directors are expected to be appointed prior to the FY19 Annual

Shareholder Meetings.

New Executives Appointed

In August, SIML announced the appointment of Fabio Pagano to the new

role of Investore Fund Manager. This role will provide additional support to

develop and grow Investore’s business.

In addition, SIML recently announced the appointment of Steve Penney

to the role of General Manager Investment. Steve will be responsible for

strategy has continued to progress during the year, with the creation of a

leadership development programme and the establishment of an employee

voice forum. A cohort of managers within Stride are due to commence the first

leadership development programme in February 2019. The employee voice

forum will provide a forum for people throughout the organisation to contribute

to innovation and improvement in Stride's business and its culture. Initiatives

SIML manages the portfolios of SPL, Investore and Diversified. SIML has had

an active first half of the 2019 financial year managing these businesses.

Some of the main highlights for Investore and Diversified are:

• The Board of Investore has focused on capital management, with a

$100 million bond issue having been completed by SIML on behalf of

Investore, and the bonds commencing trading in April 2018. In addition,

Investore commenced a share buyback programme in August 2018 to

acquire up to 5% of its ordinary shares over a 12 month period

• SIML, on behalf of Investore, has worked closely with Investore’s key tenant,

General Distributors Limited, the operator of Countdown supermarkets

in New Zealand, on the refurbishment of eight stores in the Investore

portfolio over the last 18 months. These refurbishments demonstrate a

positive working relationship between SIML, on behalf of Investore, and

Investore's tenant, to deliver an improved environment for customers, which

we believe will drive increased sales

• The expansion of the Mitre 10 at Te Irirangi Drive, Botany, Auckland, is

expected to be completed before the end of calendar year 2018. This

expansion (of which Investore is funding the majority) has been undertaken

at the request of the tenant, and will result in increased rental for Investore

• Sales at Queensgate Shopping Centre have recently returned to the levels

seen prior to the November 2016 Kaikoura earthquake, on a like-for-like

basis, which is a positive result for the centre

• Work is progressing on rebuilding parts of Queensgate Shopping Centre

following its damage in the Kaikoura earthquake, while at the same time

there is also work being undertaken to seismically strengthen parts of the

centre

• A revised masterplan has been created for Chartwell Shopping Centre, with

the first asset management initiative underway

• Planning for the redevelopment of Johnsonville Shopping Centre (which is

owned 50:50 by SPL and Diversified) continues to progress

Stride Property Group Interim Report for the six months ended 30 September 20181312Stride Property Group Interim Report for the six months ended 30 September 2018
Dear Shareholders,

The Board and Management of Stride are pleased to report to you

after a very busy and successful first half of the 2019 financial year.

The past six months have been characterised by considerable leasing

and development activity, which has contributed to the improved

net property valuations for SPL as at 30 September 2018.

Performance

The Board is pleased with the financial results for the first half of the

2019 financial year. Profit after tax to 30 September 2018 is $40.2 million,

up $6.9 million on the previous comparable period. This result reflects the

improved valuations of SPL’s property portfolio, with the portfolio having a

total value of $934.5 million

12

as at 30 September 2018, representing a net

valuation gain of $23.6 million from 31 March 2018. These improved valuations

have contributed to a 3.0% increase in net tangible assets per share to $1.88.

Distributable profit

13

before current tax at $21.9 million for the period is lower

by $2.6 million than the previous comparable period, largely due to the impact

of the divestment of three Bunnings properties to Investore in February 2018

and the development at Springs Road, East Tamaki, which commenced

this year. In addition, corporate overheads are higher than the previous

comparable period, due to some short term benefits in the previous period

resulting from some staff vacancies.

During the six months in review, SPL refinanced $200 million of its

$400 million banking facilities, and post refinancing SPL has no banking

facilities maturing until June 2021. As at 30 September 2018, the weighted

average tenor of SPL’s debt facilities is 3.3 years (2.2 years as at

31 March 2018), and the weighted average cost of debt is 4.7% (5.0% as

at 31 March 2018).

The Boards of SPL and SIML have approved a combined cash dividend of

2.4775 cents per share (cps) for the second quarter to 30 September 2018,

bringing total combined cash dividends for SPL and SIML for the first half

of the 2019 financial year to 4.955 cps. The Boards reconfirm guidance

for a combined annual cash dividend for SPL and SIML of 9.91 cps for the

2019 financial year.

Chairman’s & Chief Executive’s Report

14 See footnote 4 on page 6.

Places

The first six months of the 2019 financial year have been characterised by

considerable leasing activity, which has resulted in an improved lease expiry

profile as outlined on page 7, as well as contributing to the uplift in valuations

across the portfolio. In addition, this transactional activity has delivered

annualised Contract Rental

14

growth of 6.3% when compared to previous rentals.

Office: A number of leases have expired in office buildings across the

portfolio, and the majority of these have been successfully re-leased as at

30 September 2018, contributing to net valuation uplifts for these properties.

For example, Westpac formerly leased five levels of an 11 storey building

at Grey Street in Wellington. At the expiry of its lease, Westpac elected to

remain in occupation on one level, two further levels were re-leased prior to

31 March 2018, and the remaining two levels were re-leased during the period

in review. This leasing activity has contributed to a net valuation uplift for this

property of $3.3 million or 6.2% as at 30 September 2018.

As a result of the positive transactional activity in the office portfolio,

annualised Contract Rental

14

growth of 5.5% has been achieved in this

portfolio compared to previous rentals.

Industrial: There have been a number of new and renewed leases completed

in the industrial portfolio during the first half of the 2019 financial year which

have contributed positively to the overall industrial portfolio WALT (4.8 years

as at 30 September 2018 compared to 4.3 years as at 31 March 2018) and net

valuation increase for the industrial portfolio of 4.8%.

• The new development at 15 Rockridge Avenue, Auckland was fully leased

during April 2018, contributing to a net valuation uplift for this property of

$2.1 million (+9.6%) as at 30 September 2018.

• The tenant at 22-30 Airpark Drive, Auckland, renewed the lease of this

property for five years, contributing to a significant net valuation increase

for this property of $4.8 million (+21.4%) as at 30 September 2018.

12 See footnote 2 on page 4.

13 Distributable profit is a non-GAAP financial measure adopted by Stride to assist Stride and investors

in assessing Stride’s profit available for distribution. It is defined as net profit/(loss) before income tax,

adjusted for determined non-recurring and/or non-cash items, share of profits in associates, dividends

received from associates and current tax. Further information, including the calculation of distributable

profit and the adjustments to net profit before income tax, is set out in note 4 to the consolidated interim

financial statements on page 32.

Stride Property Group Interim Report for the six months ended 30 September 20181514Stride Property Group Interim Report for the six months ended 30 September 2018
As a result of the leasing activity in the industrial portfolio during the half year

period, annualised Contract Rental

15

growth of 8.6% has been achieved in this

portfolio compared to previous rentals as at 31 March 2018.

15 Rockridge Avenue, Penrose, Auckland

Retail: Strong leasing activity has continued in the retail sector as well, with

renewals of 12 of 14 tenancies at the Silverdale Centre, Auckland, that were

due to expire in mid-October 2018, reflecting a total increase in rental of

10% on previous rentals (with rental negotiations still continuing with one of

the tenants that have confirmed renewal of its lease). We have continued to

see strong sales growth at both NorthWest Shopping Centre and Silverdale

Centre as at 30 September 2018, with comparable sales

16

up +11.5% and

+4.0%

17

 respectively.

Developments: The SIML development team has been progressing a number

of developments during the six months in review, which are expected to add

value to the portfolio. Work has commenced on the development of a new

head office for Waste Management at Springs Road, Auckland, as well as

the expansion of the Rebel Sports and Briscoes premises at the Bay Central

Shopping Centre in Tauranga. These transactions are examples of the active

portfolio management undertaken by SIML.

Portfolio Activity: SPL continually reviews its portfolio to ensure its properties

meet its strategy of enduring demand and high returns. During the six month

period in review, SPL contracted to purchase a new industrial property at

439 Rosebank Road, Auckland for $8 million, with completion in July 2020 (at

the vendor’s request). SPL intends to undertake some alterations to this property

after settlement, which will further enhance the property's returns. Post interim

balance date, SPL has commenced a sale process for its Corinthian Drive

property in Auckland, which is leased to ASB.

People

It has been a very active start to the FY19 financial year, and this progress

reflects the excellent people that SIML has recruited, due to its strategy of

recruiting market leading talent and growing our credibility and reputation

in the market as an employer of choice. In recent months SIML announced

the appointment of two new executives: Steve Penney was appointed in

November 2018 to the role of General Manager Investment, and Fabio Pagano

was appointed in August 2018 to the newly-created role of Investore Fund

Manager, to help execute Investore’s strategic vision of growing the large

format retail property business. The appointment of a fund manager for the

Investore portfolio demonstrates SIML’s commitment to investing in our real

estate investment management business for the benefit of our managed

funds and our shareholders.

Products

Turning to the fourth of our strategic pillars, products, we are pleased to report

that there has been significant activity during the past six months for the SIML

managed entities of Investore and Diversified.

Capital management has been the focus for Investore over the last six months,

with SIML executing the Investore Board’s work programme, which included

the $100 million inaugural bond issue in April 2018, the commencement

in August 2018 of a 12 month share buyback programme for Investore to

purchase up to 5% of its ordinary shares, and the refinancing of $70 million

of bank facilities.

15 See footnote 4 on page 6.

16 Comparable sales includes sales from tenancies which have traded for the past 24 months and includes

commercial services categories.

17 Sales data is not collected for all tenants at Silverdale Centre. Some tenants are not obliged to provide

sales data under the terms of their lease.

16Stride Property Group Interim Report for the six months ended 30 September 2018
Activity within the Diversified property portfolio has included work on the rebuild

of part of Queensgate Shopping Centre following the Kaikoura earthquake, the

strategic tenant remix for the Remarkables Park Town Centre in Queenstown,

and completion of a refreshed masterplan for the Chartwell Shopping Centre

in Hamilton. The first asset management initiative related to the Chartwell

masterplan is underway, which is expected to add value to this asset once

completed. Planning for the redevelopment of the Johnsonville Shopping

Centre (which is owned 50:50 by SPL and Diversified) remains ongoing. On the

capital management side, SIML also arranged the refinancing of $220 million of

Diversified bank funding in the period in review.

Strategy

Stride’s strategy is to establish a group of commercial property funds to provide

the opportunity for further growth in our investment management business,

using SIML’s investment expertise and, where required, SPL’s balance sheet to

acquire properties that will ultimately be used to establish these new focused

funds. We expect that SPL will co-invest in any new fund, which will drive

alignment of interest between Stride and investors. This type of growth is

indicative of the investment management model we see for Stride, where, as

we establish further products, Stride will incrementally benefit as each of our

products performs and grows.

We look forward to reporting to you at the end of the financial year.

Note 1: Accounting Policies

Reporting Entity

The unaudited consolidated interim financial statements (financial statements) presented are those of Stride

Property Limited (SPL) and Stride Investment Management Limited (SIML), each of SPL and SIML being a

“Stapled Entity”, and together the Stride Property Group (Stride). For accounting purposes, stapling gives rise

to the combination of the Stapled Entities into a consolidated group. For the purposes of financial reporting,

one of the combining entities is required to be identified as the parent entity of the consolidated group. In

the case of Stride, SPL has been identified as the parent for the purposes of preparing the consolidated

financial statements.

Shares of SPL and SIML are stapled and quoted on the Main Board equity securities market of NZX under the

ticker code SPG.

The financial statements were approved for issue by the Board of Directors of SPL (SPL Board) and the Board

of Directors of SIML (SIML Board), together the “Boards”, on 22 November 2018.

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with New Zealand Generally Accepted Accounting

Practice (NZ GAAP), New Zealand International Accounting Standard 34 (NZ IAS 34) Interim Financial

Reporting and International Accounting Standard 34 (IAS 34) Interim Financial Reporting. The financial

statements do not contain all the disclosures normally included in an annual financial report, and should be

read in conjunction with the audited 2018 annual financial statements. The financial statements have been

prepared using the New Zealand Dollar functional and reporting currency and have been rounded to the

nearest thousand dollars ($000), unless stated otherwise.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the

revaluation of certain classes of assets and liabilities as identified in the following specific accounting policies

and the accompanying notes.

The financial statements include additional comparative information beyond that required under NZ IAS 34 and

IAS 34 and has been provided for information purposes for the shareholders.

New standards, amendments and interpretations

At the date of approval of the financial statements, the following relevant standard was in issue but not yet

effective and has not been early adopted by Stride.

NZ IFRS 16 Leases replaces the current guidance in NZ IAS 17 Leases and requires a lessee to recognise a

lease liability reflecting future lease payments and a “right-of-use” asset for most lease contracts.

Given that SPL is the lessor for the majority of its leases, NZ IFRS 16 is not expected to have significant

impact on how SPL currently accounts for its leases. However, SPL has four ground leases on investment

properties and therefore SPL may recognise a right of use asset and lease liabilities in accordance with the

new leasing standard.

The standard is effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019. SPL intends to

adopt NZ IFRS 16 effective from 1 April 2019.

Significant accounting policies, estimates and judgements

Except as described below, the same accounting policies and methods of computation are followed in the

financial statements as compared with the most recent annual financial statements.

Stride has adopted NZ IFRS 9 Financial Instruments and NZ IFRS 15 Revenue from contracts with customers

from 1 April 2018.

Note 1: Accounting Policies (continued)

NZ IFRS 9 Financial Instruments

Stride has applied NZ IFRS 9 retrospectively, but has elected not to restate comparative information. The

implementation of NZ IFRS 9 has resulted in some changes in accounting policies.

Classification and measurement

From 1 April 2018, Stride classifies its financial assets and financial liabilities in the following measurement

categories:

– those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income, or through

profit or loss), and

– those to be measured at amortised cost.

The classification of financial instruments has not resulted in any reclassification between measurement

categories for Stride’s financial assets and liabilities. Derivative financial instruments that are in cash flow

hedge relationships remain measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, and other financial

instruments (including cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, the NZX bond, trade payables

and bank borrowings) are measured at amortised cost.

Impairment

Under NZ IFRS 9, on initial recognition of a financial asset, Stride assesses on a forward-looking basis, the

expected credit loss associated with its financial assets carried at amortised cost. At each reporting date, the

credit risk on a financial asset, apart from trade receivables, is assessed to determine whether there has been

a significant increase in the credit risk. In assessing whether there has been a significant increase in credit

risk, Stride considers both forward looking information and the financial history of counterparties to assess

the probability of default or likelihood that full settlement is not received. For trade receivables, the simplified

approach to measuring expected credit loss is adopted, which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance.

Based on an assessment carried out, the impairment loss on financial assets was immaterial. As a result, there

have been no measurement changes required to these financial statements by NZ IFRS 9.

Hedging

Interest rate swaps in place as at 30 September 2018 qualify as cash flow hedges under NZ IFRS 9. Stride’s

risk management strategies and hedge documentation are aligned with the requirements of NZ IFRS 9 and are

therefore treated as continuing hedges.

NZ IFRS 15

Revenue from contracts with customers

The majority of the revenues of SPL are derived from rental income from lease agreements with tenants of the

investment properties. Accounting for lease income is out of scope of NZ IFRS 15 Revenue from contracts with

customers. However, certain non-rental income streams, such as recovery of property operating expenses, are

within the scope of NZ IFRS 15. SIML’s revenue is derived from management fees, which along with recovery of

employee costs, are within the scope of NZ IFRS 15.

Process and policy

Accounting policies have been amended to include the five-step method, as defined in NZ IFRS 15, and are

applied consistently to revenue recognition processes across Stride.

The five-step method for recognising revenue from contracts with customers involves consideration of the

following:

– Identifying the contract with the customer

– Identifying performance obligations

– Determining the transaction price

– Allocating the transaction price to distinct performance obligations

– Recognising revenue when performance obligations are satisfied, this may be a point in time or over time.

Note 1: Accounting Policies (continued)

NZ IFRS 15 Revenue from contracts with customers (continued)

Classification and measurement

The implementation of NZ IFRS 15 has required a change in the presentation of service charges and the recovery

of employee costs in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. Previously, Stride presented the

income generated from service charges recovered from tenants as a direct offset against property operating

expenses and income generated from the recovery of employee costs from its managed entities as an offset

to corporate overhead expenses. In implementing NZ IFRS 15, these components have been separated out

between income and expense as income falls under the scope of NZ IFRS 15 and cannot be netted off against

related expenses. As a result, the 30 September 2017 comparatives have been restated as follows:

The revenue recognition and measurement of management fees, service charge income and recovery of

employee costs under NZ IFRS 15 is the same as the previous standard NZ IAS 18 Revenue, where the

revenue is recognised in the period the service is rendered.

Significant events and transactions

The financial position and performance of Stride was affected by the following events and transactions that

occurred during the reporting period:

Revaluation of investment properties

Seventeen investment properties were subject to a desktop review or independent valuation due to the

significant capital expenditure works undertaken, contractual rental variance or which were considered to have

asset specific factors to which the market was responding differently in the current period. The review of the

portfolio resulted in a net change in fair value of investment properties of $23,601,133.

Note 2: Operating Segments

Stride consists of two operating segments, being SPL and SIML. SPL’s revenue streams are earned from

investment properties owned in New Zealand, with no specific exposure to geographical risk. Given SPL’s

diverse client base, no one tenant represents greater than 10% of the portfolio contract rental. SIML’s revenue

streams are earned from the management of the real estate investment of Investore Property Limited,

Diversified NZ Property Trust and SPL. For the revenue earned from these entities, refer to note 13 on related

party disclosures.

The following is an analysis of Stride’s results, by reportable segments. Management fees paid from SPL

to SIML are eliminated on consolidation and therefore do not appear in the consolidated statement of

comprehensive income for Stride.

Net rental income is net of direct property operating expenses as presented in the consolidated statement

of comprehensive income. In the current period, direct property operating expenses of $1,119,000

(30 Sep 17: $1,221,000) charged by SIML to SPL have been eliminated from net rental income.

In the current period, a net change in fair value of investment properties of $346,668 (30 Sep 17: $298,893),

arising from the elimination of the project management fees charged by SIML to SPL to manage capital

expenditure works $131,788 (30 Sep 17: $130,657) and development works $214,880 (30 Sep 17: $168,236),

has been reflected in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. Development fees of $8,724

(30 Sep 17: $543) arising from the work undertaken in relation to the development of Johnsonville Shopping

Centre was charged by SIML to SPL and has been eliminated from the work in progress value in the

consolidated statement of financial position.

In the current period SPL has reduced its rental liability of $344,000 incurred in June 2016 on the sale of 650

Great South Road, Auckland, for the replacement of leases if early termination rights were exercised.

In the current period, a revaluation movement of $346,667 (31 Mar 18: $760,201), arising from the elimination

of the capital expenditure fees charged by SIML to SPL, has been reflected in the consolidated statement

of comprehensive income. Capital expenditure consists of fit-outs and other physical enhancements to the

investment properties, with ownership of such capital amounts being retained by SPL.

Capital expenditure commitments contracted for

As at 30 September 2018, SPL has the following commitments:

– $1,357,727 (31 Mar 18: $2,847,585) in total for various capital expenditure works to be undertaken on

investment properties in this financial year.

– development expenditure of $4,376,668 at Bay Central Shopping Centre, Tauranga, in relation to the

expansion of Rebel Sports and Briscoes premises, expected to be completed over the next twelve months.

– $8 million in relation to a contract to acquire an industrial property at 439 Rosebank Road, Auckland, with

completion anticipated in July 2020. A deposit of $400,000 has been paid.

– development expenditure of $43 million in total with Waste Management NZ Limited (Waste Management)

at 11 Springs Road, Auckland, with an agreement with Waste Management that allows for the expansion of

the scope of works by up to $23 million. As at balance date $5,176,401 has been incurred (note 7).

Subsequent to balance date, SPL has committed to a further $6,512,563 in total for various capital expenditure

works to be undertaken on investment properties over the next eighteen months.

Note 6: Investment Properties (continued)

Valuation basis

All investment properties were valued by independent valuers as at 31 March 2018. The SPL Board has

reviewed the fair value of the investment properties as at 30 September 2018 on an asset by asset basis after

considering recent comparable transactional evidence of market sales and leasing activity and is satisfied

that there has been no significant change to the overall carrying value, other than the following seventeen

investment properties, which were subject to a desktop review or independent valuation due to the significant

capital expenditure works undertaken, contractual rental variance or which were considered to have asset

specific factors to which the market was responding differently in the current period:

an accrued interest liability of $253,102 (31 Mar 18: liability of $8,210,396 including an accrued interest

Independent review report

To the shareholders of Stride Property Group

Report on the consolidated interim financial statements

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated interim financial statements of Stride Property Group, which

consists of Stride Property Limited (SPL) and Stride Investment Management Limited (SIML) (together “Stride”) on

pages 19 to 43, which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 September 2018, and

the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the

consolidated statement of cash flows for the six month period ended on that date, and a summary of significant

accounting policies and other explanatory notes.

Directors’ responsibility for the consolidated interim financial statements

The Directors of SPL and SIML respectively are responsible on behalf of Stride for the preparation and presentation

of these consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 Interim

Financial Reporting (IAS 34) and New Zealand Equivalent to International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial

Reporting (NZ IAS 34) and for such internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation

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

Our responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the accompanying consolidated interim financial statements based on

our review. We conducted our review in accordance with the New Zealand Standard on Review Engagements 2410

Review of Financial Statements Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity (NZ SRE 2410). NZ SRE 2410

requires us to conclude whether anything has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the consolidated

interim financial statements, taken as a whole, are not prepared in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34

and NZ IAS 34. As the auditors of Stride, NZ SRE 2410 requires that we comply with the ethical requirements relevant

to the audit of the annual financial statements.

A review of consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 is a limited assurance

engagement. The auditor performs procedures, primarily consisting of making enquiries, primarily of persons

responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. The

procedures performed in a review are substantially less than those performed in an audit conducted in accordance

with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand) and International Standards on Auditing. Accordingly, we do

not express an audit opinion on these consolidated interim financial statements.

Our firm carries out other assurance services for Stride over tenancy marketing and operating expenses and

performing agreed procedures in respect of proxy voting at the 2018 Annual Shareholder Meetings. The provision of

these other services has not impaired our independence as auditor of Stride.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that these consolidated interim

financial statements of Stride are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and NZ IAS 34.

Who we report to

This report is made solely to the shareholders of SPL and SIML, as a body. Our review work has been undertaken

so that we might state those matters which we are required to state to them in our review report and for no other

purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than Stride

and the shareholders of SPL and SIML, as a body, for our review procedures, for this report, or for the conclusion we

have formed.

For and on behalf of:

Chartered Accountants, Auckland

22 November 2018

The practical impacts of a shareholder holding a stapled security include that:

• The shareholder is a shareholder of both SPL and SIML;

• In order to sell a SPL share or a SIML share, the corresponding SIML share or SPL share, as applicable, also

needs to be sold to the same purchaser;

• Market disclosures via NZX may be made in respect of the Stride group as a whole, but each of SPL and

SIML will continue to be obliged to make announcements under the NZX Listing Rules according to the

nature of the disclosure (for example, announcements about the declaration of a dividend or the passing of

a resolution at a meeting of shareholders would be made by the relevant company);

• The only quoted price of a SPL share and/or a SIML share on the NZX will be the quoted price for the

stapled security;

• The materiality of “Material Information” for continuous disclosure purposes under the Listing Rules will

be assessed against the potential effect on the price of stapled securities as there will not be a separate

quoted price available for each of SPL and SIML. Any disclosure of “Material Information” made by Stride will

explain whether the information is material to SPL and/or SIML;

• New stapled security issues will result in equal numbers of SPL shares and SIML shares being issued;

• Shareholders are entitled to attend, or vote by proxy, at separate meetings of shareholders of each of SPL

and SIML. For some transactions involving both Stride companies (for example, an issuance of stapled

securities being made with shareholder approval under the Listing Rules), resolutions might be required

from shareholders in respect of the same matter. In that case, the relevant transaction will only be able to

proceed if the respective resolutions are approved at shareholder meetings of SPL and SIML; and

• Distributions will be received, to the extent declared, from each of SPL and SIML.

Implications of Investing in Stapled Securities
