Environmental Strategy
22

The impact of Argosy’s property investment business on the natural environment is

an increasingly important consideration for investors, tenants and other

stakeholders.

Our environmental strategy reflects our long-term ambition to create vibrant

sustainable workplaces for our tenants. We believe that green buildings have the

potential to provide a number of key business benefits including:

increased marketability;

higher rental rates;

lower operating costs;

higher occupancy;

improved worker productivity and occupant health and well-being;

lower regulatory risk.

We believe that an integrated design approach, where experts and tenants are

involved from the pre-design stage through to occupancy can greatly assist in the

reduction of green development costs.

We are a member of the New Zealand Green Building Council which is dedicated

to accelerating the development and adoption of market based green building

practices.

NZ Market Update
28

Office

Flexible working environments continue to drive a disconnect between employment growth and net absorption. This is

expected to continue with recent transactions demonstrating a move to agile work environments.

Rental growth impacted by new supply – softer in Auckland, reflected in higher incentives, and firmer in Wellington.

The Wellington market continues to show strong demand, with low vacancy for good quality seismically sound space

that is well located. There is a shortage of large floor plate/high quality stock with upward rental growth pressure as a

result. Premium and Grade A vacancy is minimal.

Industrial

Steady economic growth driving occupier demand. Lower interest rates and offshore capital flows driving yields/cap

rates lower.

Continued low supply forecast with challenges around land supply and congestion in Auckland market.

Land values are at historic highs.

New rental benchmarks being set with each new phase as costs of supply increase ($130-140m2 for prime warehouse).

Vacancy at historic lows for both prime and secondary (< 2%).

Retail

Continued increase in online retailing is impacting discretionary retail.

Generally a more negative retail spending outlook. Waning migration, increasing fuel prices and flat housing prices are

providing headwinds.

Support from increasing tourism has ebbed as this growth plateaus.

Approximately 200,000m2 of retail space to be added by 2022.

Large format retail expected to be most secure.
