Dear Unitholder
GOODMAN PROPERTY TRUST (“GMT” and “Trust”)
I’m pleased to advise investors that the third quarter distribution, for the period ended
31 December 2019, has now been paid. The distribution includes a cash component
of 1.6625 cents per unit with 0.288430 cents per unit of imputation credits attached.
CORONAVIRUS UPDATE
The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the NZ economy is expected to be
widespread, causing significant disruption to many industries.
While GMT is likely to be affected to some extent, we have a robust business.
There are around 200 customers in the portfolio, occupancy is over 99% and the
weighted average lease term is more than five years. These factors ensure rental
cashflows are contracted well into the future. The Trust’s balance sheet is also strong
with committed gearing of just 20.7%, as at 29 February 2020.
We are working closely with the manager of GMT, Goodman Group, to ensure the
safety of staff and customers remains paramount. Business continuity arrangements
mean we expect to remain fully operational and able to support our customers.
Unless there is a material change in the operating environment the next business
update will be the Trust’s FY20 annual result, expected to be announced on the 14
May 2020.
Yours faithfully,
Keith Smith
Chairman
