Stride Property GroupAnnual Report 20215Stride Property GroupAnnual Report 20214

Dear Shareholders
Stride Property Group has delivered

very positive financial results for FY21,

in a year that was significantly disrupted

due to COVID-19. Stride has managed

the impacts of COVID-19 while also

delivering on its strategic objectives,

positioning Stride to take the next step

in growing its real estate investment

management business.

FY21 has been another active year for Stride, with a focus

on execution of Stride’s strategic objective of growing

its real estate investment management business. During

FY21, Stride’s Assets Under Management (AUM) increased

by $0.8 billion to $3.0 billion, with highlights that included:

• The establishment and growth of Industre,

with Industre acquiring seven properties since

commencement for a total purchase price of

$118 million, including one property acquired post

balance date for $10 million. The Industre portfolio

has grown to $610 million as at 31 March 2021.

• Investore’s $105 million equity capital raise and

post-balance date acquisitions. A number of capital

management initiatives were completed for Investore,

which have provided it with flexibility to continue

its strategy of targeted growth. Post balance date

Investore has settled on the acquisition of Countdown

Petone for $37.3 million, and has entered into a

conditional agreement to purchase development

land at Waimak Junction, Kaiapoi, North Canterbury.

Investore has reached agreement in principle with

Countdown to develop a new supermarket on this

land, which will leave 1.6 hectares remaining for

future development opportunities. The total capital

commitment associated with the acquisition (including

land cost and development cost for stage 1) is

expected to be $31 million and stage 1 is expected

to be completed in 2023. The acquisition remains

conditional on receipt of resource consents for the

development and concluding a final, documented

agreement to lease with Countdown.

• The growth of Stride’s directly-held portfolio of

office properties. SPL has acquired three additional

office properties during FY21 and tripled the value

of its office portfolio to $580 million as at 31 March

2021. This growth in Stride’s office portfolio has

positioned it to launch a new office property entity,

which is currently planned to occur during FY22,

subject to market conditions.

Shareholders will be familiar with Stride’s strategic pillars

of Performance, Products, Places and People. This year

we are modifying those pillars slightly to combine Products

and Places, and introduce a new pillar of Portfolio – this is

due to the evolution of Stride as an investor and manager,

with SPL developing portfolios of assets through special

purpose subsidiaries which could over time be used to

establish new Products. SPL will continue to hold an

1. See glossary on page 156.

interest in each of the Products that are created by Stride and

accordingly it will continue to have direct property ownership

interests as well as indirect interests through its shareholding

in each of the Stride Products. SPL will hold its ongoing

investments in these Products through entities which will

hold the underlying properties as long term investments. The

Stride portfolio (which we are now reporting as “Portfolio”)

should therefore be seen as a combination of directly-owned

property and “look through” interests in the properties owned

by each of the Stride Products.

Performance

Stride has delivered strong financial results for FY21,

due primarily to prudent financial management and a very

active period as manager of the Stride Products in a period

impacted by COVID-19. The Stride Board is very pleased

to deliver profit after tax from continuing operations of

$132.0 million, significantly higher than FY20 (FY20:

–$0.1 million).

The Board notes that certain prior year figures have been

re-presented as a result of the commencement of Industre

on 1 July 2020, which met the definition of a discontinued

operation. Accordingly, comparative information has been

re-presented to exclude the industrial portfolio.

Contributing to this higher profit after tax from continuing

operations is management fee income which, at

$25.1 million, is $6.8 million higher than FY20 (FY20:

$18.3m). This increase is due in large part to fees received

from Industre, which commenced operations during the year,

as well as higher asset management fees, performance fees

and leasing fees from Investore. This outcome demonstrates

the benefits of Stride’s strategy of growing its real estate

investment management business, through establishing

separate commercial property-owning entities and growing

those entities.

Net rental income from continuing operations was slightly

down on FY20 (FY21: $49.9 million; FY20: $50.4 million),

primarily as a result of the income lost through the sale of

three properties to Investore in April 2020 and the reduced

rental from the property at 22 The Terrace, Wellington, which

is undergoing refurbishment, balanced against higher income

from the three office properties acquired during the year.

The main expenses for Stride, which consist of corporate

expenses and net finance expenses, were both lower than

FY20 (corporate expenses – FY21: $21.1 million; FY20:

$22.4 million; net finance expenses – FY21: $13.4 million;

FY20: $16.5 million), leading to lower overall expenses

for FY21.

The revaluation movement in the SPL portfolio from

continuing operations was a material benefit to Stride’s

profit after tax from continuing operations for FY21, with

revaluation gains of $38.8 million for FY21, up by

$60.9 million on FY20 (FY20: –$22.2 million). In addition,

Stride’s share of profit in associates was $58.8 million

higher than FY20 (FY21: $62.3 million; FY20: $3.5 million),

which was driven by portfolio valuation gains in Investore

and Industre Property Joint Venture.

As a result, distributable profit

1

for FY21 was materially

higher than FY20, and higher than anticipated at the

commencement of FY21 when Stride announced its

dividend guidance for FY21. These financial results are very

pleasing and testament to Stride’s strategy of growing its

real estate investment management business as well as the

careful and disciplined management of the business during

the COVID-19 period.

Products and Places

Stride’s Products are the property-owning businesses it

manages, comprising, in addition to SPL itself:

• Investore Property Limited – an NZX listed entity that

owns large format retail property throughout the length

of New Zealand.

• Industre Property Joint Venture – a joint venture

between SPL and a group of international institutional

investors, through a special purpose vehicle and

advised by J.P. Morgan Asset Management (together,

JPMAM). Industre invests solely in industrial property,

primarily located in the Auckland region.

• Diversified NZ Property Trust – a private trust that

owns four shopping centres in New Zealand.


Investore was well placed to manage the impacts of

COVID-19 during FY21 due to the high proportion of

supermarkets in its portfolio, which were able to remain

open and trading under all Alert Levels imposed by the New

Zealand Government to manage COVID-19. The extremely

busy period for supermarkets during COVID-19 benefited

Investore through higher turnover rental, up 81% to

$1.0 million. However, it also meant that some supermarket

improvement projects were put on hold during this period.

Report

Stride Property GroupStride Property GroupAnnual Report 2021Annual Report 202167

Investore also took advantage of market conditions during
April and May 2020 to launch an equity capital raising to

raise funds to continue its strategy of targeted growth. This

has resulted in Investore having a relatively low loan to value

ratio as at 31 March 2021 of 26.8%, which is conservative

given its stable portfolio with a relatively long WALT

1

. Since

balance date, Investore acquired Countdown Petone and

has announced the conditional acquisition of development

land at Waimak Junction, Kaiapoi. Taking into account

these acquisitions, together with proposed and current

developments, Investore’s portfolio value would increase to

$1.1 billion and LVR

1

to 31.2% (on a pro forma 31 March

2021 basis assuming these transactions had completed at

that date). Investore will have $128 million of available debt

facility headroom to continue its growth strategy.

Industre commenced operations on 1 July 2020, and since

then Stride is proud to have delivered on Industre’s growth

aspirations, completing $108 million of acquisitions in

FY21, with a further acquisition for $10 million completed

post balance date.

As at 31 March 2021, Industre’s portfolio was worth

$610 million, and this has subsequently increased with the

additional acquisition completed since that date. Industre

has aspirations to continue to grow its portfolio and SIML

continues to actively seek acquisition and development

opportunities for Industre. As has been reported previously,

the Industre joint venture partner JPMAM

1

has committed

an amount of capital to fund growth initiatives, subject to

meeting certain investment return and approval thresholds,

providing Industre with available funding to continue to grow.

FY21 has been a challenging year for all shopping centre

operators due to the New Zealand Government enforced

closures and trading restrictions placed on centres and

retailers. However, SIML is pleased to report that in the

second half of FY21, the sales performance of retailers

rebounded significantly, resulting in stable occupancy and

Diversified’s portfolio value increasing to $466 million.

During FY21 SIML continued to manage the rebuild of part

of the Queensgate Shopping Centre that was damaged

during the 2016 Kaikoura earthquake. Rebuilding a carpark

and cinema complex in one corner of a functioning shopping

centre has provided a number of logistical challenges,

including ensuring safe entry and exit (particularly in the case

of an emergency) and ensuring tenants and visitors were

not unduly inconvenienced by the rebuild. The Boards would

like to take this opportunity to thank the SIML Development

Team and the Queensgate Shopping Centre Management

Team for their dedication to completing this rebuild in an

efficient and effective manner and navigating the challenges

of construction in a busy shopping centre environment.

This project is due to be completed progressively in stages

between late 2021 and mid 2022.

SPL Portfolio

Following the completion of the sale of the three large

format retail properties to Investore in April 2020, and the

commencement of Industre in July 2020, SPL’s directly-

held portfolio comprises office and town centre properties

2

.

SPL has been actively growing its office portfolio during

FY21, with the acquisition of three quality office buildings,

being 34 Shortland Street, Auckland, acquired for

$67.5 million (including allowance for capital upgrades

3

) in

September 2020, 215 Lambton Quay, Wellington, acquired

for $84.5 million in November 2020, and

20 Customhouse Quay, Wellington, acquired for

$228 million in December 2020. Each of these office

properties enhanced the SPL office portfolio through

their individual attributes, including location, quality,

tenant covenant, and opportunity to add value through

improvements.

SPL also owns an interest in each of the Stride Products.

SPL will be used to create and grow seed portfolios

through special purpose subsidiaries, which can be used

to establish new Products, and over time as more Stride

Products are created, the interests that SPL has in each

of the Products will become more important to its overall

portfolio value. Accordingly, it is appropriate to consider

SPL’s portfolio as comprising directly-held property

investments and indirect property investments through its

interest in each of the Stride Products.

On this basis, the SPL portfolio shows strong metrics, with a value

of $1.4 billion, 97.7% occupancy and a WALT

1

of 6.8 years.

People centred

Stride greatly values its people and strives to demonstrate

this to its employees. During FY21, at a time when the

financial impact and duration of COVID-19 was not certain,

Stride rewarded its employees for their dedication to

the business by improving employee benefits, including

increasing employer KiwiSaver contributions to 5% (when

employee contributions are 4% or greater),

extending paid paternity leave and long service

leave, and increasing annual leave by one week.

Fresh thinkers

At the commencement of Alert Level 4 restrictions in March

2020, SIML initiated an equity capital raising for Investore,

due to the unique position of Investore given its portfolio

of large format retail properties, primarily supermarkets.

This capital raising was brought to market in a very short

timeframe while working from home and raised

$105 million in gross proceeds, with net

proceeds being used to pay down debt and

provide funding flexibility to continue Investore’s

growth strategy.

People

Stride is incredibly proud of the way its team has

performed during this challenging year and the Board

would like to thank our people and their families for

their commitment to Stride during a period when

they were navigating not only increased business

pressures but also working from home while

managing families and other commitments. Stride

and its people have amply demonstrated its values of

nimble performers, discipline driven, fresh thinkers

and people centred during FY21.

Chair and CEO’s

Report

34 Shortland Street,

Auckland

Discipline driven

Stride’s clear focus on minimising the impacts of

COVID-19 on its business and taking advantage of

any opportunities that arose have resulted

in the financial impact of COVID-19 being

considerably less than originally anticipated.

1. See glossary on page 156.

2. Excluding SPL’s 56.3% interest in the Industre unincorporated component of the

Industre Property Joint Venture which is reported as part of the assets of SPL in the

consolidated financial statements (see note 3.2 to the consolidated financial statements

for further information).

3. SPL paid $66.4 million for the property at 34 Shortland Street, including

$2.25 million for building upgrades, and has committed a further sum for

additional upgrades.

Nimble performers

Stride’s people agreed 771 deals with tenants for rent

arrangements related to COVID-19 across all Stride

Products during FY21 – this is not work that was anticipated

at the commencement of the financial year, but

Stride’s people pitched in and did what was

needed to be done to manage the impacts of the

pandemic.

COVID-19

Stride is pleased to have delivered a better than expected

outcome with respect to the financial impact of COVID-19.

An initial assessment of the expected financial impact was

provided in Stride’s annual report for FY20, and an update

as at 30 September 2020 set out in Stride’s interim report.

Stride is pleased to advise that due to the commitment of its

people in managing and minimising the financial impacts

of COVID-19 on its business, the overall financial impact

of COVID-19 for FY21 is now calculated to be a

$0.3 million increase in distributable profit

1

after current

income tax, compared with an initial estimate

3

of a reduction

in distributable profit

1

after current income tax of between

$2.9 million and $5.1 million for FY21. This is a testament

to Stride’s people and their commitment to the business,

and the Board was pleased that it had elected to reward

employees for their dedication through this period by

introducing improved benefits.

The Stride team delivered positive outcomes for the

Stride Products during the COVID-19 periods as well. As

shareholders will be aware, Stride’s strategy has been to

seek to assist tenants where it is needed through rent relief

arrangements while at the same time seeking to achieve a

benefit for the relevant Stride Product through an extension

of the lease term or early renewal – particularly where the

tenant may not have otherwise been contractually entitled

to rent relief.

Executing on this approach, Stride has agreed a

weighted average lease extension across all COVID-19

arrangements as follows:

Sustainability

The world is becoming more aware of the need to

change the way we live and work, in order to ensure we

maintain a healthy and productive planet for ourselves

and future generations. Stride is conscious of the impact

of its activities on the planet and its people, and seeks

to minimise any adverse consequences of its activities

on the planet while also meeting the expectations of

its shareholders in delivering a return on the funds

shareholders have invested in Stride.

In order to ensure that sustainability plays a key part in

decisions of the Board and actions of Management, and to

demonstrate its commitment to improving its performance in

this area, Stride has established a Sustainability Committee

of the Boards of Directors of SPL and SIML. This Committee

is chaired by Jacqueline Cheyne, who has extensive

experience in this field including through her time at Deloitte

New Zealand where she led the Corporate Responsibility

and Sustainability services function for nine years.

The Sustainability Committee has overseen the

development of a refreshed sustainability strategy, based

on three pillars:

• Protect the planet - We want to create efficient,

climate-resilient places that deliver long term value and

support a low carbon future.

• Contribute to a resilient community - We want to

provide leading health and safety performance and

support a connected and inclusive society.

• Develop shared prosperity - We want to foster

long-term prosperity by investing in and managing

outstanding places that reward everyone connected

with them.

The Sustainability Committee considers that it is important

that Stride’s actions demonstrate its commitment to

sustainability, and this has been achieved during FY21

through the following key activities:

• Stride has implemented a new software system to

measure its greenhouse gas emissions.

• Stride has developed an initial list of climate related

risks, which are reported on pages 50 and 51, and

plans to complete further work during FY22 to

complete its climate risk assessment, which will

allow Stride to report against the Taskforce on

Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD)

framework from FY22.

• SPL assessed during FY21 that seismic strengthening

work was required at its building at 22 The Terrace,

Wellington. In planning that upgrade work, Stride

elected to take the opportunity to implement a number

of sustainability initiatives at the building. While this

increased the cost of the project, the Stride Board

was pleased to support these initiatives as they are

beneficial for the environment and also enable Stride

to deliver a higher quality building with associated

higher rentals. Stride is targeting a 5 star Green Star

Design and As-Built rating and a 5 star NABERSNZ

rating for the building.

Further detail on Stride’s approach to sustainability can be

found on pages 46 to 53 of this report.

Governance

The Boards of SPL and SIML are proud to have guided

delivery of these very pleasing results for FY21. This has

been a particularly active year for both Management and

the Boards, given the intense monitoring and support

involved during the period impacted by COVID-19 and

Stride’s subsequent growth activity, including acquisitions

and an equity capital raising. The Boards are pleased that

this activity is evident in the financial results for FY21.

Stride’s distribution policy has been to distribute between

95% and 100% of distributable profit

1

, to support its

strategy of delivering consistent dividends, as well as long-

term growth for shareholders. Given Stride’s evolution into

becoming a diversified investor and investment manager,

and given the significant growth in the financial results for

FY21, the Boards have taken the opportunity to increase

the range of Stride’s distribution policy to distributing

between 80% and 100% of distributable profit

1

. This larger

range will provide Stride with the scope to continue to pay

investors consistent returns, while allowing flexibility to

reinvest capital into Stride’s growing businesses.

Future direction and outlook

Stride’s strategy is to establish a group of Products

in specific sectors to provide growth in its investment

management business. SPL has continued to grow its

office portfolio during FY22, to a value of $580 million as at

31 March 2021. In addition, as announced on 27 May

2021, Stride has an unconditional agreement to acquire

an additional Auckland office property at 46 Sale Street

for a purchase price of $152 million. This positions Stride

to create a new listed Product focused on the commercial

office property sector. The Boards plan to establish this

new Product during FY22, noting this remains subject to

market conditions.

The Boards confirm that they currently intend to pay a

combined cash dividend for SPL and SIML during FY22

of 9.91 cents per share. The Stride Boards will continue

to review dividend guidance if and when a new Product

is established, and will keep the market informed as

appropriate.

On behalf of the Boards and staff, thank you for your

continued support of Stride Property Group.

Stride Overview

Stride Property GroupStride Property GroupAnnual Report 2021Annual Report 20211617

People
FY21 was dominated

by the impacts of

COVID-19 and required

a level of activity that

was unprecedented in

Stride’s history. The

pandemic posed a

number of challenges for

the Stride team, and we

are very proud of the way

our people responded to

those challenges.

Stride recognises that a successful business requires a great team and that

a company is only as strong as its people. Accordingly, during FY21 Stride

undertook a review of employee benefits, resulting in the following:

• Annual leave increased by one week.

• Christmas shutdown period increased to three weeks, to ensure that

employees have a genuine break to re-charge their batteries.

• KiwiSaver employer contributions increased to 5% of gross earnings

(provided employee contributions are at 4% or above). This employer

contribution is 2% above the minimum mandated by the New Zealand

Government.

• Long service leave and paid paternity leave increased.

The Stride Board determined to provide these benefits during a year impacted

by COVID-19, when earnings were uncertain, to demonstrate its commitment to

attracting and retaining the best calibre people.

SPL’s town centre assets have been chosen by Stride due to their individual

strategic strengths:

• NorthWest Shopping Centre is in a strong growth area, providing increased

customer traffic and demand for the products offered by tenants of the centre.

NorthWest Shopping Centre is a true mixed-use development, with over

7,700 sqm of office space, and has further potential for development.

This centre has performed well during FY21. While moving annual turnover

(MAT) was down 13.1% for the year, if travel-related retailers were excluded

MAT was up 1.2%, despite the centre having been closed for 20% of trading

days due to Alert Level restrictions. This continues a positive sales trend for the

centre, with MAT (excluding travel-related retailers) up 5.8% compared with the

year ended 31 March 2019.

• Silverdale Centre is also located in an area of Auckland that is experiencing

strong population growth, a developing region that will continue to

drive customer visitation. Silverdale Centre demonstrated strong sales

performance in FY21, with MAT up 1.7% and specialty retailer MAT up 4.1%

compared with the year ended 31 March 2020. This performance compares

even more favourably given the centre was also closed for 20% of trading

days due to COVID-19.

• Johnsonville Shopping Centre (owned 50:50 by SPL and Diversified) is

ideally located in a busy suburban Wellington location, directly beside the

railway line into Wellington’s CBD. Johnsonville Shopping Centre represents

a development opportunity and Stride is currently exploring options for the

redevelopment of this centre.

acquisition of 40-42 Wilkinson

Road, Ellerslie

JPMAM has contributed all of the equity for these acquisitions, in accordance with

the intentions of both JPMAM and SPL at commencement of the joint venture.

This has resulted in SPL’s interest in Industre reducing to 56.3% as at 31 March

2021. While SPL has the right to contribute equity in line with its proportionate

interest in the joint venture, Industre’s strategy over the long term is for JPMAM to

fund further portfolio growth until the respective shareholdings in the portfolio are

75% / 25% (JPMAM/SPL).

Having completed the acquisition of the property at 439 Rosebank Road in

December 2020, Industre has demolished the existing buildings on site, and is

currently planning to develop new, modern industrial units. This is an example

of the type of development that Industre specialises in – acquiring brownfield

sites and improving or redeveloping them to meet tenant needs and create

enduring demand.

The four shopping centres owned by Diversified were significantly impacted by
COVID-19 during FY21. Although the centres are all located outside of Auckland,

and therefore avoided the Auckland restrictions imposed in August 2020 and

February 2021, the Alert Level 4 lockdown in April and May 2020 meant the

centres were unable to trade.

SIML has worked hard to minimise the impacts of COVID-19 on the Diversified

portfolio and seek to achieve a benefit for Diversified where Diversified has

agreed to provide rent relief arrangements with tenants, if possible. As a result,

Diversified has benefited from a weighted average lease extension of 10 months

agreed in return for rent relief arrangements.

In addition to managing the ever-changing COVID-19 impacts, Diversified has

continued with the rebuild of part of the Queensgate Shopping Centre during

FY21. This centre suffered damage in the Kaikoura earthquake in 2016 and

part of the carpark and the cinema complex are currently being rebuilt, with the

carpark due to be completed in late 2021 and the cinema complex targeting to

be open for Easter 2022. This will provide a welcome addition to the centre, and

is expected to drive increased visitation, given the lack of cinema facilities in the

wider Wellington region.

strong weighting to the office

sector. This is a result of SPL

growing its office portfolio

over the past year.

Stride intends to establish an investment management Product using SPL’s office

assets, which will result in SPL’s interest in the office sector reducing. Stride

expects over time to hold a balanced portfolio of commercial property assets,

although the percentages will flex as Stride invests in different sectors through

special purpose subsidiaries before creating a new Product.

Investment

Management Business

Stride’s strategy is

to create a group

of Products in

specific commercial

property sectors to

grow its investment

management business.

SIML will manage

each of the Products

and SPL will continue

to own an interest in

each of the Products,

benefiting Stride

through the creation

of new investment

management entities.

The benefits of this strategy of developing Stride’s real estate investment

management business have been evident during the year in review:

• Each Stride Product has managed the impacts of COVID-19 differently, with

Investore benefiting from the demand for supermarkets during lockdown

periods.

• The Stride Products have demonstrated the benefits of having access to

separate pools of capital, with Industre continuing to grow through utilising

equity from JPMAM, Stride conducting an equity capital raise to fund the

acquisition of additional office properties to grow its office portfolio, and

Investore undertaking an equity capital raise to provide funding flexibility for

future growth.

• Management fee income was materially higher in FY21, up $6.8 million to

$25.1 million

1

primarily due to increased activity-based income.

1. Net of management fees received from SPL.

2. Stride’s revenue comprises SIML management fees and SPL revenue. SPL revenue comprises income derived from

SPL’s directly-held property plus revenue derived from its interests in the Stride Products which is calculated based on

net Contract Rental on a look-through basis as at 31 March 2021. Base management fees comprise estimated FY22

management fees from Stride Products (i.e. excluding fees from SPL) and exclude capex fees, planned maintenance fees,

leasing fees, development fees, performance fees and other one-off or activity based fees.

Capital Management
Stride has taken an active

and prudent approach

to capital management

during FY21, given the

uncertainties created

by COVID-19. During

FY21, Stride undertook

a number of capital

management initiatives

to ensure it maintained

an appropriate balance of

debt facilities and equity.

These initiatives included:

• Refinancing of $135m of debt for a further three years to June 2024.

• Additional $150m of facility committed in December 2020 to support

growth initiatives.

• Equity capital raising announced in November 2020, to raise additional

equity to support the acquisition of two office properties in Wellington, being

215 Lambton Quay and 20 Customhouse Quay. Stride sought to raise

$220m, through a $180m share placement and a share purchase plan

seeking to raise $40m. The share purchase plan was oversubscribed, and

Stride elected to accept $50m of applications, resulting in a total of $230m

of gross proceeds raised.

• New banks introduced to the SPL banking syndicate, adding diversification in

funding sources and supporting future growth.

Sustainability
Stride’s approach

to sustainability has

developed during FY21

under the oversight

of the Stride Board

Sustainability Committee.

This section sets out

Stride’s approach to

sustainability under

the focus areas of

governance, strategy,

risk management

and metrics.

Governance

Stride has established a Board Sustainability Committee to ensure a dedicated

focus at the Board level on the impact of climate-related issues on Stride’s

business and other areas of Stride’s sustainability performance. Given the

increasing focus of the New Zealand Government, regulators, investors and

tenants on sustainability matters, Stride has established a Board Sustainability

Committee to ensure it is able to meet the demands of these interest groups

while also delivering profitable performance for shareholders. The creation of this

Committee demonstrates Stride’s commitment to improving the sustainability of

Stride’s business and particularly its impact on the environment.

The Sustainability Committee is chaired by Director Jacqueline Cheyne, who has

significant experience in sustainability issues. Jacqueline is currently the chair of

the External Reporting Board Steering Group responsible for development of the

climate reporting standards, a Director of New Zealand Green Investment Finance

Limited and previously led Deloitte’s Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability

services function for Deloitte New Zealand for nine years. Other members of the

Committee are Tim Storey, the Stride Board Chair, and Director Philip Ling.

The Sustainability Committee appreciates that Stride has work to do to

demonstrate best practice in sustainability, but considers that important work

has been undertaken in this area during FY21, as reported in this section of the

Annual Report.

Strategy

Stride has refreshed its sustainability

strategic plan, which is focused on

three distinct goals. This plan sets

the primary objectives that Stride

considers in its decision-making.

Stride’s Sustainability Strategic Plan

Risk Management

During FY21 Stride’s Sustainability Committee considered the key risks, at a high

level, that may be faced by Stride in relation to climate change, and, in accordance

with the Taskforce on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), categorised

those risks into two categories – transition risks, being those associated with

transitioning to a low-carbon economy, and physical risks, being risks arising as a

result of changes in the physical climate and acute climate events.

A summary of the key climate change risks assessed by the business and reported

to the Stride Sustainability Committee is set out on pages 50 and 51. During

FY22 Stride intends to undertake further work to refine these risks and prepare

a detailed and comprehensive climate risk assessment for Stride and the Stride

Products, in preparation for reporting against the TCFD framework from FY22.

Metrics

Stride has commenced the process of gathering emissions data to enable it to

record and report on its greenhouse gas emissions. Stride has subscribed to the

New Zealand-developed BraveGen software, which captures the greenhouse gas

emissions data for Stride and each of its Products.

Once the baseline year data has been determined, Stride will commission an

independent assurance of that data, to enable it to report confidently against its

baseline emissions. Stride expects that this data will be available for reporting

from FY22.

ObjectiveUN Sustainable Development Goals

Stride Property GroupStride Property GroupAnnual Report 2021Annual Report 20214647

Key achievements for FY21 have been:
• Stride has implemented the BraveGen software system which allows Stride

to measure its greenhouse gas emissions and that of the Stride Products.

Stride intends to report on its greenhouse gas emissions from FY22.

• Stride has developed an initial list of climate related risks, which are reported

on pages 50 and 51. Stride intends during FY22 to complete further work to

formalise this climate risk assessment, which is a starting point for Stride to

set strategies and develop objectives to manage these risks.

• SPL assessed during FY21 that seismic strengthening work was required

at its building at 22 The Terrace, Wellington. In planning that upgrade

work, Stride determined to take the opportunity to implement a number of

sustainability initiatives. More information can be found on pages 52 and 53.

• Stride is currently assessing each of its office buildings to determine

whether work needs to be completed to enable the building to obtain a

NABERSNZ rating. NABERSNZ is a system for rating the energy efficiency

of office buildings, and is an independent tool backed by the New Zealand

Government. Stride expects that tenants will increasingly demand a

NABERSNZ rating as part of lease commitments from landlords, and the

New Zealand Government is leading the way in this regard. In order to obtain

a NABERSNZ rating, at least 12 months of energy consumption data is

required, and therefore some of SPL’s office buildings may need additional

metering and further time to determine landlord emissions and become

eligible to obtain a NABERSNZ rating.

Achievements

As signalled in the FY20 Annual

Report, a key focus for FY21

has been developing Stride’s

sustainability strategy, as well as

a commitment to completing a

baseline carbon emission calculation,

integrating sustainability into the

planning process, particularly for

major developments, and beginning

the climate risk assessment process.

Climate Related
Opportunity –

22 The Terrace,

Wellington

During FY21, Stride identified that the office

building at 22 The Terrace, Wellington, required

seismic strengthening works to be completed. In

planning these works, Stride identified a number of

sustainability improvements that could be made to the

building at the same time as the seismic strengthening

and refurbishment works are completed. These

works, taken as a whole, will make the building more

attractive to tenants, while also saving money in the

long run due to reduced energy consumption.

The Stride Board has approved expenditure of at least

$2 million to implement sustainability initiatives at

22 The Terrace, targeting a 5 star Green Star Design

and As-Built rating, and a 5 star NABERSNZ rating.

The benefits of this strategy are:

• Reduce emissions associated with operation of

the building

• Improve attractiveness of the building to tenants,

which Stride expects will improve rent over time,

benefiting shareholders in SPL

• Extend the life of the building and reduce future

costs associated with implementing sustainability

initiatives, as these were undertaken at the time

of essential works

Installing water efficient tap and

bathroom hardware, LED lighting, and

efficient heating and air conditioning,

thus reducing resource consumption and

thereby reducing emissions

Creating a rainwater harvesting

system, which will reduce water

demand from the building

Improving the thermal performance of the

building by installing a thermal film system to

all glazed surfaces, repairing window seals

and frames and completing thermal insulation

works to the walls and roof. This improves the

efficiency of the heating and cooling system,

thus reducing energy consumption and thereby

reducing greenhouse gas emissions

Increasing the number of visitor cycle

spaces, encouraging visitors to the

building to reduce their dependence on

cars and motorised transport

Creating an end of trip facility, including

showers, bathrooms, cycle park facilities,

lockers and drying rooms, which makes it

easier for tenants to cycle, walk, or run to

work, thus reducing dependence on cars and

improving wellness

Establishing a waste management

facility, which enables tenants to

reduce their waste to landfill

Community
Engagement

One of the core pillars

of Stride’s Sustainability

Strategic Plan is to

“contribute to a resilient

community”, which

includes supporting a

connected and inclusive

society. This section of the

report outlines the ways in

which Stride contributes

to the societies in which

it operates.

Family Fun

The shopping centres managed by SIML have a strong focus on family

activities, as family is the heart of the community. A number of Stride’s

Shopping Centres host a toddler day, with free arts and crafts activities

for children. This is then amplified during school holidays with a number

of free events and education-based entertainment for children.

The centres recognised that COVID-19 posed a challenge to parents

to keep children entertained during the April 2020 school holidays and

responded accordingly – Johnsonville Shopping Centre sponsored

Zappo the Magician to produce a daily Facebook live show during the

April 2020 school holidays to engage and entertain children that were

locked down at home. This was very successful with around

785 engagements for each show.

Social distancing impacted a number of planned school holiday events and

shopping centres had to deftly change direction

to provide safe and entertaining fun for children.

NorthWest Shopping Centre devised a centre-

wide treasure hunt for children, which proved

very popular. Smiling children playing in open

spaces was all the reward our teams need for

their dedication and hard work.

Not all fun is for the children of course, and

during December Queensgate Shopping

Centre developed “Putt in the Hutt”, a mini-putt

activity situated within the centre. This was very

successful, with over 3,300 people participating.

Some local schools even incorporated Putt in the

Hutt into their end of year activity and donated to

the Wellington City Mission as their ‘fee for entry’.

NorthWest Shopping Centre ran a series of free

outdoor events that catered for the whole family,

including hosting free movies on a giant outdoor

screen, where locals could bring a beanbag or

blanket and settle in for a night under the stars

watching the stars in the latest releases.

Empathy

Contributing to a resilient community involves having a level

of empathy for all those in the community who may be facing

challenges, and this has been particularly true during FY21

given the unexpected challenges that COVID-19 presented.

Queensgate Shopping Centre participated in the Lower

Hutt Street Art Festival held during March 2021, with one

wall of Queensgate Shopping Centre turned into an outdoor

art gallery, showcasing the work of two internationally

acclaimed street artists, Berst (Dr Bobby Hung) and

Askew 1 (Elliot O’Donnell). The mural depicts EMPATHY

and was created to refresh their own artwork that was

painted more than 15 years ago.

Movies in the Square,

NorthWest Shopping Centre supported their local

Salvation Army during FY21 in a number of ways.

The centre hosted a donation box, collecting

between 7 and 10 banana boxes of product every

week which were donated to families in need. The

centre also supported the Salvation Army with their

Christmas gift wrapping appeal, with donations

amounting to more than $10,500, an increase of

15% on the prior year.

To celebrate New Zealand Sign Language Week,

Queensgate Shopping Centre enlisted the help of

4-year-old Sign Language Week ambassador and

Lego enthusiast, Carter, to teach the Queensgate

Facebook community how to sign some common

words relevant to the shopping centre.

Queensgate and Chartwell Shopping Centres have

been long standing partners with Dress for Success,

who provide a service for women to achieve

economic independence, and offer professional

work attire for their clients. Members of the

community are able to donate clothing in the centres

and the centres also make their own donations.

Space

All of the SIML-managed shopping centres recognise that

contributing to a resilient community involves more than just

hosting fun events. Spaces are made available within the

centres for charities and community groups free of charge,

to enable these groups to engage with the local community

and raise awareness and funds to help support their cause.

Groups or events supported during FY21 include:

The Five Year Financial Summary table reflects the numbers in the financial statements for each respective year.

On 11 July 2016, SPL distributed shares in its subsidiary Investore to SPL shareholders and Investore issued shares to

investors in connection with its initial public offer (IPO). Investore entered into a listing agreement with NZX Limited (NZX) and

its ordinary shares were quoted, and commenced trading on the main board equity security market of NZX, on 12 July 2016.

The financial performance for Investore for the period ended 11 July 2016 (2017 column) has been presented as “Profit from

discontinued operations”.

On 1 July 2020, Industre commenced operations. Industre is a joint arrangement between SPL and a group of international

institutional investors, through a special purpose vehicle, advised by J.P. Morgan Asset Management (JPMAM). On 1 July 2020,

SPL held a 68.25% interest in Industre. This reduced to 56.33% as at 31 March 2021.

The accounting for the arrangements by SPL is a combination of a joint operation (proportionate share of assets, liabilities,

revenue and expenses) and joint venture (equity accounted). Only JPMAM’s special purpose vehicle’s participating interest

has been treated as discontinued in respect of the joint operation as SPL retained a partial direct ownership interest in the

properties. All of the financial performance and cash flows pertaining to the properties that have been transferred to the

Industre joint venture has have been treated as discontinued. The financial performance for the discontinued operations are for

the period ended 30 June 2020 (2021 column) and the year ended 31 March 2020 (2020 column) and has been presented

as “Profit/(loss) from discontinued operations”.

Stride Property GroupStride Property GroupAnnual Report 2021Annual Report 20216465

Notes to the Financial Statements
For the year ended 31 March 2021

This section sets out Stride Property Group’s accounting policies that relate to the consolidated financial statements (financial statements)

as a whole. Where an accounting policy is specific to a note, the policy is described within the note to which it relates.

1.1 Reporting entity

The 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 financial statements and

consequently SIML’s equity is presented as the non-controlling interest in the financial statements.

SPL is principally involved in the ownership of investment properties in New Zealand and SIML is principally involved in the management of real estate

investment entities in New Zealand. SPL and SIML are both domiciled in New Zealand, are both registered under the Companies Act 1993 and are both

FMC reporting entities under Part 7 of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013.

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 27 May 2021.


1.2 Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with New Zealand Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (NZ GAAP). Stride is a for-profit

entity for the purposes of financial reporting. The financial statements comply with New Zealand Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards

(NZ IFRS), other New Zealand accounting standards and authoritative notices that are applicable to entities that apply NZ IFRS. The financial statements

also comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The financial statements were prepared in accordance with the Financial Markets

Conduct (Stride Property Group) Exemption Notice 2017 and waivers granted to Stride from certain of the NZX Listing Rules dated 1 January 2020

(NZX Listing Rules), which each permit SPL and SIML, subject to the conditions of the exemption notice and waivers (respectively), to prepare financial

statements in respect of Stride in place of separate financial statements of each Stapled Entity. These waivers (dated 28 May 2020) replace, and are of the

same effect as, the previous waivers granted to Stride from certain of the NZX Main Board Listing Rules dated 1 October 2017.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost basis except for assets and liabilities stated at fair value as disclosed. The financial

statements have been presented in New Zealand dollars and have been rounded to the nearest thousand, unless stated otherwise.

1.4 Significant accounting policies, estimates and judgements

In the application of NZ IFRS, the Boards and management are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about carrying values of assets

and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on experience and other factors that

are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements. Actual results may differ from the

estimates, judgements and assumptions made by the Boards and management.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the

estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.

Judgements made by the Boards and management in the application of NZ IFRS that have significant effects on the financial statements and estimates

with a significant risk of material adjustments in the next year are disclosed, where applicable, in the relevant notes to the financial statements as follows:

• Investment properties (note 3.2);

• Lease liabilities (3.3);

• Derivative financial instruments (note 5.2);

• Industre joint venture (note 7.0); and

• Deferred tax (note 8.1).


1.5 Fair value estimation

Stride classifies its fair value measurement using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making measurements. The fair

value hierarchy has the following levels:

Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets 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 (as prices) or indirectly

(derived from prices); and

Level 3 - inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.


1.6 Non-NZ GAAP measures

The consolidated statement of comprehensive income includes two non-NZ GAAP measures; Profit before net finance expense, other income/(expense)

and income tax from continuing operations; and Profit before other income/(expense) and income tax from continuing operations. These non-NZ GAAP

measures have been presented to assist investors in understanding the different aspects of Stride’s financial performance.

Note 4.2 sets out Stride’s calculation for distributable profit and Adjusted Funds From Operations (AFFO) which are both non-NZ GAAP measures.

Distributable profit is presented to provide an earnings measure which more closely aligns to Stride’s underlying and recurring earnings from its operations.

AFFO is intended as a supplementary measure of operating performance. Cash spent during the period on capital expenditure as part of maintaining a

building’s grade/quality, but not expensed as part of distributable profit after current income tax, is adjusted to reflect cash earnings for the year.

These non-NZ GAAP measures do not have a standard meaning prescribed by GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to information

presented by other entities.


1.7 COVID-19 impacts

The global COVID-19 pandemic and resulting impacts on credit and property markets has increased the level of uncertainty around certain estimates

in these financial statements.

As at 31 March 2021, SPL has provided rent abatements of $3.2 million. Rental abatements that have been agreed with tenants have been accounted

for as lease modifications. In addition, SPL has provided for $0.4 million rental income abatements yet to be agreed with the affected tenants.

As at 31 March 2020, the independent valuations of SPL’s portfolio were reported on the basis of ‘material valuation uncertainty’, meaning less

certainty and a higher degree of caution should be applied to the valuations. As at 31 March 2021, the ‘material valuation uncertainty’ clause has been

removed on all but one of the independent valuations (refer note 3.2).

As part of its COVID-19 support package the New Zealand Government has reintroduced a 2% diminishing value depreciation deduction for

commercial properties, starting in April 2020 for SPL. This provided a reduction in current tax to SPL of approximately $1.1 million for the year ended

31 March 2021, excluding depreciation deductions on any investment property acquisitions from 1 April 2020.

1.8 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:

Divestment of properties to Investore Property Limited (Investore)

As at 31 March 2020, SPL had entered into conditional contracts to divest three large format retail properties being Bunnings Mt Roskill, Auckland,

Mt Wellington Shopping Centre, Auckland, and Bay Central Shopping Centre, Tauranga, to Investore for $140.75 million. The properties were

reclassified from investment properties to investment properties classified as held for sale and were held at $132.196 million, being the contracted

sales price excluding the seismic works SPL is to complete, estimated at $7.5 million, and rental guarantee costs of $0.6 million. SPL settled on the

divestment of the three properties on 30 April 2020. As at 31 March 2021, the seismic works had not commenced and $0.5 million of the rental

guarantee had been utilised or forgone by Investore.

Acquisition of shares in Investore

On 5 May 2020, SPL paid Investore $16.5 million (refer note 7.2) to acquire 10,013,516 shares in Investore’s equity capital raise. Following that

equity capital raising, SPL's shareholding in Investore reduced from 19.4% as at 31 March 2020 to 18.8%, being 69,201,977 shares.

Commencement of Industre Property Joint Venture (Industre)

On 1 July 2020, Industre commenced operations. Industre is a joint arrangement between SPL and a group of international institutional investors,

through a special purpose vehicle, advised by J.P. Morgan Asset Management (JPMAM). On 1 July 2020, SPL held a 68.25% interest in Industre.

This reduced to 56.33% as at 31 March 2021 (refer notes 7.2 and 7.3).

Funding

Effective from 24 April 2020, SPL refinanced $135 million of debt for a further three years to 30 June 2024. Post the settlement of the disposal

of the three large format retail properties to Investore and the settlement of Industre, SPL repaid $206 million in total of bank borrowings and

terminated $120 million of interest rate derivatives for a total cost of $9.29 million. Effective from 20 November 2020, SPL entered into a new

$100 million, three year facility which was further increased to $150 million effective from 19 February 2021. SPL has entered into $155 million of

interest rate derivatives for tenures of between 2-4 years. Refer to notes 5.1 and 5.2 for further detail.

Acquisition of investment properties

SPL acquired the following properties during the year:

• On 1 April 2020, an industrial property at 16 Wickham Street, Hamilton, for a purchase price of $10 million. This property became part of Industre;

• On 2 September 2020, SPL acquired an office building at 34 Shortland Street, Auckland, for a purchase price of $66.4 million, including an

allowance of $2.25 million for building upgrades which are expected to be completed within the next 12 months. SPL has acquired the 17-level

building except for levels 4-7, which are owned by another party. Stride’s head office is located in this building and the value attributable to this floor

has been recognised as property, plant and equipment (refer note 8.7);

• On 30 November 2020, an office building at 215 Lambton Quay, Wellington, for a purchase price of $84.5 million; and

• On 18 December 2020, an office building at 20 Customhouse Quay, Wellington, for a purchase price of $228 million.

Revaluation of investment properties

SPL undertook independent valuations of the entire portfolio as at 31 March 2021 which resulted in a net change in fair value of investment

properties of $43.3 million (2020: ($1.8 million)) (refer note 3.2). The investment properties held by Investore, Industre and Diversified NZ Property

Trust (Diversified) were also valued by independent valuers at 31 March 2021. SPL’s share of the valuation gains/(losses) are reflected in share

of profit in equity-accounted investments and for those properties in the Industre joint operation are reflected in net change in fair value of

investment properties.

Equity capital raise

During November and December 2020, Stride undertook an equity capital raise which resulted in a gross amount of $230 million raised, with

107,476,635 shares issued at $2.14 per share (refer note 5.4).

2.0 Operating Segments (continued)
This section sets out how Stride’s revenue streams are reported internally, reflecting the two operating segments being SPL and SIML.

Accounting policy

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker, identified as the

respective Board of each of SPL and SIML, as each makes all key strategic resource allocation decisions.

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. SPL’s revenue streams included the revenue streams earned from

the industrial investment properties divested to Industre.

SIML’s revenue streams are earned from the management of the real estate investments of Investore, Industre, Diversified and SPL. For the revenue

earned from Investore, Industre and Diversified, refer to note 8.4 on related party disclosures and note 7.3 on Industre joint operation.

This section covers property assets which generate Stride’s trading performance.

3.1 Net rental income

Accounting policy

Investment property is leased by SPL to tenants under operating leases with rent payable monthly. Rental income from investment properties is

recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease incentives provided in relation to letting the investment properties are capitalised to the

respective investment properties in the consolidated statement of financial position and amortised on a straight-line basis over the non-cancellable

portion of the lease to which they relate, as a reduction of rental income. Where a lease provides for fixed rental increases over the term of the lease,

they are amortised on a straight-line basis over the non-cancellable portion of the lease to which they relate.

Income generated from service charges recovered from tenants are included in the gross rental income with the service charge expenses to tenants

shown in the direct property operating expenses. Such revenue is recognised in the accounting period the underlying expenses are incurred in

accordance with the contractual terms.

The recovery of employee expenses from SIML managed entities are included in the gross rental income (as service charges recovered from tenants)

with the employee related costs shown in corporate overhead expenses.

3.0 Property (continued)
3.1 Net rental income (continued)

Accounting policy

Leases are classified at their inception as either an operating or finance lease based on the economic substance of the agreement so as to reflect the

risks and rewards incidental to ownership. Leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are

classified as operating leases.

Properties leased out under operating leases are included in investment properties in the consolidated statement of financial position.

SPL has determined that it retains all significant risks and rewards of ownership of properties and has therefore classified the leases as operating leases.

3.2 Investment properties

Accounting policy

Investment properties are held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or both. Investment property is initially stated at cost, including

related transaction costs and then at fair value as determined at least every 12 months by an independent registered valuer.

The fair value of an investment property represents the estimated price for which a property could be sold for at the date of valuation in an orderly

transaction between market participants. The predominant methods for assessing the current fair value of an investment property are the Income

Capitalisation and the Discounted Cash Flow approaches. Each approach derives a value based on market inputs, including:

• recent comparable transactions where available;

• forecast future rentals, based on the actual location, type and quality of the investment property, and supported by the terms of any existing

lease, other contracts or external evidence such as current market rents for similar properties;

• vacancy assumptions based on current and expected future market conditions after expiry of any current lease; and

• appropriate discount rates derived from recent comparable market transactions reflecting the uncertainty in the amount and timing of

cash flows.

In addition, consideration is given to the maintenance and capital requirements including necessary investments to maintain functionality of the

property for its expected useful life.

Any gain or loss arising from a change in the fair value of the investment property is recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive

income within net change in fair value of investment properties. Subsequent expenditure is capitalised to the asset's carrying amount only when it is

probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to SPL and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs

and maintenance costs are expensed to the consolidated statement of comprehensive income during the period in which they are incurred.

Investment properties are de-recognised when they have been disposed of. The net gain or loss on disposal is calculated as the difference between

the carrying amount at the time of the disposal and the net proceeds on the disposal and is included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive

income in the reporting period in which the disposal occurs.

SPL leases various properties under non-cancellable operating lease agreements. At the inception of a contract, SPL assesses whether a contract

is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in

exchange for consideration.

Right-of-use assets are measured on initial recognition as the initial lease liability, plus any initial indirect costs incurred, less any lease incentives

received. Right-of-use assets that meet the definition of investment property are presented within investment property. SPL applies the fair value

model to investment property, including right-of-use assets that meet the definition of investment property.

Investment property is adjusted for cash flows relating to lease liabilities already recognised separately on the consolidated statement of financial

position and also reflected in the investment property valuations.

SIML does not hold investment properties but provides management services over SPL’s investment property portfolio.

The net change in fair value of $43,289,000, being $38,759,000 from continuing operations and $4,530,000 from discontinued operations

(refer note 7.4), (2020: ($1,756,000)) includes ($33,000) (2020: $62,000) in relation to the change in the value of the lease liabilities. In the current year,

a revaluation movement of $1,069,000 (2020: $3,469,000), arising from the elimination of the fees charged by SIML to SPL (refer note 2.0), 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.

On 30 June 2020, SPL transferred its industrial properties to Industre joint venture including the transfer of industrial properties to the Industre joint

operation, for which SPL retains rights to jointly held assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses in proportion to its remaining participating interest. The

transfer resulted in a disposal of industrial properties of $228 million including property under development. Subsequent decreases in participating

interest in the Industre joint operation resulted in further disposals of $31 million during the period.

During the year three office properties were acquired by SPL, being 34 Shortland Street, Auckland ($66.4million in total being $60.7 million investment

property and $5.7 million property, plant and equipment (note 8.7)), 215 Lambton Quay, Wellington, ($84.5 million) and 20 Customhouse Quay, Wellington,

($228 million).

3.2 Investment properties (continued)

Valuations are performed by independent registered valuers who hold an annual practising certificate with the Valuers Registration Board and are

members of the New Zealand Institute of Valuers. Valuers are engaged on terms ensuring that no valuer values the same investment property for more than

three consecutive years. All valuations are dated effective 31 March 2021.

At each reporting date, SIML’s asset managers verify all major inputs to the independent valuation report and assess property valuation movements when

compared to the prior year valuation report. SIML’s executive team review the valuations performed by the independent valuers for financial reporting

purposes. This team reports directly to SIML’s Chief Executive Officer. Discussions of valuation processes and results are held between members of

SIML’s executive team and the independent valuers. Discussions of valuation processes and results are also held between SIML’s Chief Executive Officer

and Audit and Risk Committee, at least once every six months, in line with SPL’s reporting dates. This review includes a review of specific independent

valuations and discussions with the independent valuers as considered necessary. Ultimately, SPL’s directors are responsible for reviewing and approving

the investment property valuations.

Investment property measurements are categorised as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. During the year there were no transfers of investment properties

between levels of the fair value hierarchy (2020: nil transfers).

The following tables provide a summary of the valuation of the individual investment properties, their net lettable area, market capitalisation rate (cap rate),

contract yield, occupancy and weighted average lease term (WALT) for the purpose of providing further detail of the assets which are considered to be the

most relevant to the operations of SPL.

The key inputs used to measure fair value of investment properties, along with their sensitivity to significant increase or decrease, are stated below:

Cap rateThe capitalisation rate is applied to the market rental to

assess an investment property’s value. The capitalisation

rate is derived from detailed analysis of factors such as

comparable sales evidence and leasing transactions in

the open market, taking into account location, tenant

covenant – lease term and conditions, WALT, size and

quality of the investment property.

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

rate. It may also result in an adjustment to the terminal yield.

When calculating fair value using the Income Capitalisation approach, the gross market rent has a strong interrelationship with the adopted capitalisation

rate, given the methodology involves assessing the total gross market income receivable from the investment property and capitalising this in perpetuity to

derive a capital value. In theory, an increase in the gross market rent and an increase (softening) in the adopted capitalisation rate could potentially offset

the impact to the fair value. A decrease in the gross market rent and a decrease (tightening) in the adopted capitalisation rate could also potentially offset

the impact to fair value. A directionally opposite change in the gross market rent and the adopted capitalisation rate could potentially magnify the impact on

the fair value.

When assessing a discounted cash flow, the adopted discount rate and adopted terminal yield have a strong interrelationship in deriving a fair value, given

the discount rate will determine the rate in which the terminal value is discounted to the present value.

An increase (softening) in the adopted discount rate and a decrease (tightening) in the adopted terminal yield could potentially offset the impact to the fair

value. A decrease (tightening) in the discount rate and an increase (softening) in the adopted terminal yield could also potentially offset the impact to fair

value. A directionally similar change in the adopted discount rate and the adopted terminal yield could potentially magnify the impact to the fair value.

3.2 Investment properties (continued)

Valuation techniques used:

• Income Capitalisation approach - is based on the current contract and market income and an appropriate market yield or return for the

particular investment property. Adjustments are then made to the value to reflect under or over renting, pending capital expenditure, and

upcoming expiries, including allowance for lessee incentives and leasing expenses.

• Discounted Cash Flow approach - adopts a ten-year investment horizon and makes appropriate allowances for rental income growth and

leasing expenses on expiries, with an estimated terminal value at the end of the investment period. The terminal yield is used to derive the terminal

value. Terminal yield rate estimates are based on comparable transaction data and also consider matters such as building age and the market

environment at the end of the investment period (10 years). The present value reflects the market-based income and expenditure projections,

discounted at a rate of return referred to as a discount rate. In selecting the discount rate, many factors are considered, including the degree of

apparent risk, market attitudes toward future inflation, the prospective rates of return for alternative investments and the rates of return earned by

comparable properties in the past.

In deriving a market value under each approach, all assumptions are based, where possible, on market-based evidence and transactions for properties

with similar locations, construction detail and quality of lessee covenant. The adopted market value is a combination of both the Income Capitalisation

and the Discounted Cash Flow approaches.

In the current year the property at 22 The Terrace, Wellington, has been fair valued by calculating what the property is expected to be worth on

completion of the seismic and building upgrade works of the property and deducting all expected costs to complete the development, being the

Residual Approach. In the prior year, the property at 11 Selwood Road, Auckland, was being developed for Waste Management and was also fair

valued under the Residual Approach.

3.3 Lease liabilities

Accounting policy

Stride leases, as lessee, various property under non-cancellable operating lease agreements. At the inception of a contract, Stride assesses whether

a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period

of time in exchange for consideration.

Lease liabilities are measured based on the present value of the fixed and variable lease payments, less any cash lease incentives receivable. Each

lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance cost. The finance cost is charged to the Statement of Comprehensive Income over the

lease period so as to produce a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.

The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined, which is generally the case

for leases in Stride, the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that the individual lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds

necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment with similar terms, security and conditions.

SIML has an operating lease for its head office where SIML is the lessee. SIML has recognised a right-of-use asset within property, plant and equipment

and a corresponding lease liability within interest bearing liabilities in relation to this lease. The right-of-use asset is depreciated over the term of the lease.

The total lease liability at 31 March 2021 is $37,000 (2020: $625,000). A 5.13% discount rate was applied for property, plant and equipment, being the

estimated incremental borrowing rate applied to the lease liabilities as at 1 April 2019. This lease and right-of-use asset is eliminated in these

financial statements .

SPL is committed under three operating leases where SPL is the lessee. There is one at each of the following properties:

• NorthWest Shopping Centre, Auckland;

• 7 - 9 Fanshawe Street, Auckland; and

• 55 Lady Elizabeth Lane, Wellington (previously known as 33 Customhouse Quay, Wellington).

The SPL leases relate to ground rent on leasehold properties and contain renewal and termination options exercisable only by SPL.

The liabilities were measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted at the rate as specified in the lease for investment property

being 6.25% for NorthWest Shopping Centre, Auckland, and 7.00% for 7-9 Fanshawe Street, Auckland. The lease term is reassessed if an option is

actually exercised (or not exercised) or Stride becomes obliged to exercise (or not exercise) it. The assessment of reasonable certainty is only revised if a

significant event or a significant change in circumstances occurs, which affects this assessment, and that is within the control of the lessee.

Included in the 31 March 2021 balance of investment property at valuation, is an implicit right-of-use asset of $23,490,000 (2020: $22,670,000) in

relation to a peppercorn ground lease at 55 Lady Elizabeth Lane, Wellington, with an associated immaterial lease liability.

The total lease liabilities amount of $27,417,000 is in respect of the two investment properties with ground leases at 31 March 2021

(2020: $27,484,000). Refer to note 6.7 for maturity profile.

This section sets out Stride’s earnings per share and how distributable profit is calculated. Distributable profit is a non-NZ GAAP
measurement and is used by Stride to calculate profit available for distribution to shareholders by way of dividends.

4.1 Basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS)

Accounting policy

Basic and diluted earnings per share amounts are calculated by dividing profit after income tax attributable to shareholders by the weighted average

number of shares on issue.

Profit after income tax attributable to shareholders is higher in 2021 than 2020 by $132.0 million mainly due to:

• higher net valuation movement of $60.9 million across the portfolios;

• higher share of profit in equity-accounted investments of $58.8 million primarily due to revaluation gains; and

• higher management fees of $6.8 million due to growth in assets under management and performance fees.

4.2 Distributable profit

Accounting policy

Stride’s dividend policy as at 31 March 2021 is to target a cash dividend to shareholders that is between 80% and 100% of its distributable profit.

Distributable profit is presented to enable investors to see an earnings measure which more closely aligns to Stride’s underlying and recurring

earnings from its operations. Distributable profit is a non-NZ GAAP measure and consists of profit/(loss) before income tax, adjusted for determined

non-recurring and/or non-cash items, share of profits in equity-accounted investments, dividends received from equity-accounted investments and

current tax.

Adjusted Funds From Operations (AFFO) is also a non-NZ GAAP measure and is intended as a supplementary measure of operating performance.

Although there is no standard meaning or measure per GAAP, AFFO has been determined based on guidelines established by the Property Council

of Australia. Cash spent during the period on capital expenditure as part of maintaining a building’s grade/quality, but not expensed as part of

distributable profit after current income tax, is adjusted to enable the investors to see the cash generating ability of the business.

Stride's capital structure includes debt and equity, comprising shares and retained earnings as shown in the consolidated statement

of financial position. This section sets out how Stride manages its capital structure, funding exposure to interest rate risk and related

financing costs.

5.1 Borrowings

Accounting policy

Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortised cost; any

difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive

income over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless SPL has an

unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date.

Effective from 24 April 2020, SPL refinanced $135 million of debt for a further three years to 30 June 2024. SPL reduced its total available facilities post

the settlement of the disposal of the three large format retail properties to Investore and the settlement of Industre to $305 million.

Key changes to SPL’s facility agreement, which took effect from the completion of Industre, are as follows:

• the entities involved in Industre, and their properties, fall outside the guaranteeing group for the SPL facility; and

• margins and line fees vary depending on the mix of assets held by SPL. Lower margins and fees will apply where SPL’s asset and tenant mix is

sufficiently diversified to allow improved capital treatment from its lenders’ perspective.

Effective from 20 November 2020, SPL entered into a new $100 million, three year facility which was further increased to $150 million effective from

19 February 2021.

SPL’s bank borrowings are via syndicated senior secured facilities with ANZ Bank New Zealand Limited (ANZ), Commonwealth Bank of Australia (New

Zealand Branch), Westpac New Zealand Limited, China Construction Bank Corporation (New Zealand Branch), Industrial and Commercial Bank of China

Limited, Auckland Branch, MUFG Bank Limited (Auckland Branch), and The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited, incorporated in

the Hong Kong SAR, acting through its New Zealand Branch. The bank security on the facilities is managed through a security agent who holds a first

registered mortgage on all the investment properties directly owned by SPL and a registered first ranking security interest under a General Security Deed

over substantially all the assets of SPL.

SIML does not have any bank borrowings (2020: nil) however, it does have a $3 million overdraft facility with ANZ (2020: $3 million), which has not been

utilised during the current year.

5.0 Capital Structure and Funding (continued)

5.2 Derivative financial instruments

Accounting policy

Interest rate derivatives (derivative financial instruments) are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and

are subsequently measured at their fair value at each reporting date. Fair value of over-the-counter derivatives, such as interest rate swaps, is

determined using valuation techniques which maximise the use of observable data and rely as little as possible on entity-specific estimates.

Hedge effectiveness is determined at the inception of the hedge relationship, and through periodic prospective effectiveness assessments to

ensure that an economic relationship exists between the hedged item and hedging instrument.

Hedge ineffectiveness for interest rate swaps may occur due to:

• the credit value/debit value adjustment on the interest rate swaps which is not matched by the loan; and

• differences in critical terms between the interest rate swaps and loans.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognised in the cash flow

hedge reserve within equity. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in profit or loss, within the consolidated

statement of comprehensive income.

When a hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss existing in equity at that time remains in equity and is

recognised when the forecast transaction is ultimately recognised in profit or loss.

Following the disposal of the three large format retail properties to Investore and the settlement of Industre:

• interest rate derivative contracts with a notional value of $120 million were terminated on 30 June 2020 for a cost of $9,293,000. Of the total swap

termination costs incurred, $1,075,000 (31 Mar 2020: $8,218,000) ($419,000 from continuing operations and $656,000 from discontinued

operations (refer note 7.4)) has been recognised as hedge ineffectiveness in the current year.

• $1,380,000 has been expensed to finance expense - swap termination expense in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. This

expense relates to swap termination costs recognised in equity as other reserves as at 31 March 2020 in relation to interest rate derivative contracts

that had a notional value of $100 million, that were terminated in April 2018 for a cost of $4,058,000 which was being amortised to finance expense

over the remaining life of the interest rate derivative contract. The $1,380,000 has been expensed in the current year as the hedged future cash

flows are no longer expected to occur.

SPL typically designates its interest rate derivatives as cash flow hedges of the interest flows on its variable rate borrowings. SPL enters into interest

rate swaps that have similar critical terms as the hedged item, such as reference rate, reset dates, payment dates, maturities and notional amount. SPL

has not hedged 100% of its floating rate borrowings, therefore the hedged item is identified as a proportion of the outstanding loans up to the notional

amount of the swaps.

Stride Property GroupStride Property GroupAnnual Report 2021Annual Report 20219091

5.0 Capital Structure and Funding (continued)
5.2 Derivative financial instruments (continued)

The fair values of interest rate derivatives are determined from valuations prepared by independent treasury advisors using valuation techniques classified

as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy (2020: Level 2). Judgement is involved in determining the fair value by the independent treasury advisors. The fair

values are based on the present value of estimated future cash flows based on the terms and maturities of each contract and the current market interest

rates as at balance date. Fair values also reflect the current creditworthiness of the derivative counterparties. The valuations were based on market rates

at 31 March 2021 of between 0.35%, for the 90-day BKBM, and 1.96%, for the 10-year swap rate (2020: 0.49% and 0.91%, respectively). There have

been no transfers between Level 1 and 2 during the respective periods. There were no changes to these valuation techniques during the reporting period.

As at 31 March 2021, the fair value of the interest rate derivatives includes an accrued interest liability of $15,593 (2020: $303,205).

The following sensitivity analysis represents the change in fair value of the interest rate derivatives and shows the effect on equity if the floating interest

rates on swaps (hedged bank borrowings) had been 0.25% higher or lower, with other variables remaining constant.

5.3 Net finance expense

Accounting policy

Interest income is recognised on a time-proportional basis using the effective interest rate.

Where SPL borrows funds specifically for the purpose of obtaining a qualifying asset, the amount of borrowing costs capitalised are the actual

borrowing costs incurred on that borrowing, less any investment income on the temporary investment of those borrowings. A qualifying asset is one

that takes six months or longer to prepare for its intended use or sale. Where SPL borrows funds generally and uses them to fund a qualifying asset,

the amount of borrowing costs capitalised is determined by applying a capitalisation rate to the expenditure on that asset. The capitalisation rate

is the weighted average of the borrowing costs applicable to the borrowings that are outstanding during the period, other than borrowings made

specifically for the purpose of funding a qualifying asset.

Other borrowing costs are expensed when incurred and are recognised using the effective interest rate.

5.0 Capital Structure and Funding (continued)

5.4 Share capital

Accounting policy

Shares are classified as equity when there is no obligation to transfer cash or other assets. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new

shares are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

There is only one class of shares, being ordinary shares, and they rank equally with each other. All issued shares are fully paid and have no par value.

SPL and SIML shares are “stapled” and jointly listed on the NZX (Stapled Securities). Each of SPL and SIML has 472,828,313 shares on issue as at

31 March 2021 (2020: 365,296,799).

Stapling of shares is a contractual and constitutional arrangement between the two Stapled Entities whereby each Stapled Entity’s equity securities are

combined with (or stapled to) the equity securities issued by the other Stapled Entity. The Stapled Entities have the same shareholders, and their shares

cannot be traded or transferred independently of one another. The Stapled Securities are traded as a single economic unit with a single quoted price.

During November and December 2020, Stride undertook an equity capital raise which resulted in total gross proceeds of $230 million, comprising

a placement for $180 million and a share purchase plan for $50 million, to partly fund the acquisitions of 215 Lambton Quay, Wellington, and

20 Customhouse Quay, Wellington. Of the total gross proceeds from the placement, $175 million was allocated to SPL and $5 million was allocated to

SIML. The total gross proceeds of $50 million from the share purchase plan was allocated to SPL.

The Boards of SPL and SIML did not issue any Stapled Securities under the SIML long term share incentive scheme during the year.

5.7 Capital risk management

Stride’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard Stride’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders, and

to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, Stride may adjust the amount of

dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, buy back shares, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce borrowings. As part of its capital

risk management, SPL is required to comply with covenants imposed under its banking facility. The Board regularly monitors these covenants and provides

six-monthly compliance certificates to the banks as part of this process.

Following the disposal of the three large format retail properties to Investore and the settlement of Industre, interest rate derivative contracts with a notional

value of $120 million were terminated on 30 June 2020 for a cost of $9,293,000. The banking syndicate has agreed for SPL to exclude the $9,293,000

from the interest cover ratio financial covenant.

SPL has complied with these covenants during the relevant periods.

This section sets out Stride’s exposure to financial assets and liabilities that potentially subject Stride to financial risk and how Stride

manages those risks.

Accounting policy

A financial instrument is recognised if Stride becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Financial assets are de-recognised if

Stride’s contractual rights to the cash flows expire, or if Stride transfers them without retaining control or substantially all risks and rewards of the

asset. Financial liabilities are de-recognised if Stride’s obligations specified in the contract are extinguished.

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.

6.1 Financial assets at amortised cost

Accounting policy

Depending on the purpose for which the assets were acquired, Stride classifies its assets as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and

financial assets at amortised cost. Classification is determined at initial recognition and this designation is re-evaluated at every reporting date.

Financial assets at amortised cost are those assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They are included

in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after balance date, which are classified as non-current assets.

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 and other receivables, is assessed to

determine whether there has been a significant increase in the credit risk by considering both forward looking information and the financial history of

counterparties to assess the probability of default or likelihood that full settlement is not received.

6.2 Financial liabilities at amortised cost

Liabilities in this category are measured at amortised cost and include borrowings and trade and other payables.

6.0 Financial Instruments and Risk Management

Stride Property GroupStride Property GroupAnnual Report 2021Annual Report 20219495

6.0 Financial Instruments and Risk Management (continued)
6.3 Fair values

The carrying value of the following financial assets and liabilities approximate their fair value: cash at bank, trade and other receivables, other current assets,

deposits on investment properties, trade and other payables and bank borrowings.

6.4 Financial risk management

Stride’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: interest rate risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. Stride’s overall risk management strategy focuses on

minimising the potential negative economic impact of unpredictable events on its financial performance.

Risk management is the responsibility of the Boards. The Boards identify and evaluate financial risks in close co-operation with management. The Boards

provide written principles for overall risk management, as well as written policies covering specific areas, such as interest rate risk, credit risk, use of

derivative financial instruments and non-derivative financial instruments, and investing excess liquidity.

6.5 Interest rate risk

As Stride has no significant interest bearing assets, its income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates.

SPL's interest rate risk arises from bank borrowings (note 5.1) which are issued at variable rates and expose SPL to cash flow interest rate risk. The long

term interest rate policy provides bands that are applied on a rolling basis, which provide for both a high level of fixed interest rate cover over the near term,

as well as a lengthy period of known fixed interest rate cover for a portion of term debt. SPL manages its cash flow interest rate risk by using floating to

fixed interest rate derivatives which have the economic effect of converting borrowings from floating to fixed rates.

As at 31 March 2021, SPL had fixed 88% of its drawn debt (2020: 50%). As SPL holds interest rate derivatives, there is a risk that their economic value

will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The value of interest rate derivatives is disclosed in note 5.2.

SPL's exposure to interest rate fluctuations is limited to the extent of all the non-hedged portions of bank borrowings which at balance date was

$31,000,000 (2020: $191,240,000). If floating interest rates were 0.25% higher or lower, with other variables remaining constant, the 12-month finance

expense would be higher or lower by $77,500 respectively (2020: $478,100).

SPL's exposure to variable interest rate risk and the weighted average interest rate for interest bearing financial assets and liabilities is as follows:

Trade and other receivables and payables are interest free and have settlement dates within one year. All other assets and liabilities are non-interest bearing.

6.0 Financial Instruments and Risk Management (continued)

6.6 Credit risk

Stride incurs credit risk from trade receivables, loan to associate and transactions with financial institutions including cash balances and interest rate

derivatives. Stride is not exposed to any concentrations of credit risk apart from the loan to associate and the accrued income receivable from AP SG 17

Pte. Limited.

The risk associated with trade receivables is managed with a credit policy which includes performing credit evaluations on all customers requiring credit

and ensures that only those customers with appropriate credit histories are provided with credit. In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an

ongoing basis, with the result that Stride's exposure to bad debts is not significant.

As SPL has a wide spread of tenants over different industry sectors, it is not exposed to any significant concentration of credit risk.

The risk from financial institutions is managed by placing cash and deposits with high credit quality financial institutions only. Stride has placed its cash and

deposits with ANZ Bank New Zealand Limited and Westpac New Zealand Limited, both AA- rated (Standard & Poor’s).

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

whose credit ratings are all AA- (Standard & Poor’s).

The maximum exposure to credit risk is the carrying amount of each class of financial assets as reported in note 6.0.

6.7 Liquidity risk

Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash, the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities,

and the ability to close out market positions. Stride’s liquidity position is monitored on a regular basis and is reviewed quarterly by the Boards to ensure

compliance with internal policies and banking covenants as per SPL's syndicated lending facility.

SPL generates sufficient cash flows from its operating activities to meet its obligations arising from its financial liabilities and has the bank facility available

to cover potential shortfalls. Further detail about the undrawn bank facility available is given in note 5.1.

The following table outlines Stride’s liquidity profile, as at 31 March, based on contractual non-discounted cash flows.

Stride Property GroupStride Property GroupAnnual Report 2021Annual Report 20219697

This section sets out how the equity accounted investments held by SPL are accounted for in Stride.
7.1 Industre

Industre owns and develops industrial properties for long term income producing purposes. SPL contributed all its industrial properties to Industre, as part

of the establishment of the joint venture.

Initially JPMAM committed approximately $70 million to the establishment of Industre and has additionally allocated a further $115 million of capital to

fund near term growth initiatives, subject to meeting certain investment return and approval thresholds, taking JPMAM’s total equity committed to

$185 million. Over the long term, the strategy is for JPMAM to fund further portfolio growth until the respective economic contributions to the portfolio are

75%/25% (JPMAM/SPL).

The agreement between SPL and JPMAM in relation to their co-ownership requires unanimous consent from both parties for all relevant activities. The

accounting for the arrangements by SPL is a combination of a joint operation (proportionate share of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses) and joint

venture (equity accounted). SIML is the manager of the joint arrangement.

7.2 Interests in associates and joint venture

Accounting policy

Interests in associates and the joint venture are accounted for using the equity method and are stated in the consolidated statement of financial

position at cost, adjusted for the movement in SPL’s share of their net assets and liabilities. Under this method, SPL’s share of profits and losses

after tax of associates and profit and loss before tax of the joint venture are included in SPL’s profit before taxation. Adjustments to the carrying

amount are also made for SPL’s share of changes in the associates’ and the joint venture’s other comprehensive income. SPL’s accounting policy is

not to take account of the effects of transactions recorded directly in equity outside profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

Under the equity method, gain or loss resulting from transfer of investment properties to associates and the joint venture in exchange for cash or

shares is recognised only to the extent of the other investors’ interest in the associates or the joint venture, however when cash and shares are

received, the portion of the gain or loss relating to cash is recognised in full.

Set out below are the associates and the joint venture of SPL as at 31 March 2021, which, in the opinion of the directors, are material to SPL.

The principal place of business for Investore, Diversified and Industre joint venture is New Zealand.

The fair value for Investore is based on the quoted market price for Investore shares on the last business day for the year ended 31 March. Diversified

does not have a quoted market price as it is an Australian Unit Trust that is not listed. Industre joint venture does not have a quoted market price as it is not listed.

7.0 Equity-accounted Investments

7.0 Equity-accounted Investments (continued)

7.2 Interests in associates and joint venture (continued)


Given the extent of SPL's equity investment as at balance date of 18.8% (2020: 19.4%), the appointment of SIML as manager, and that two of SIML's

current directors are also directors of Investore, the SPL Board has concluded that SPL has "significant influence" over Investore. As such, SPL's

investment in Investore has been treated as an interest in an associate. SPL is not subject to any escrow arrangements that prevent it from selling or

otherwise disposing of any shares that it holds. The daily average ownership interest for the year was 18.9% which has been used to recognise SPL’s share

of Investore’s profit.

Given the appointment of SIML as manager, and that one of SIML's current directors is also on Diversified's Investment Committee, the SPL Board has

concluded that SPL retains "significant influence" over Diversified. As such, SPL's investment in Diversified has been treated as an interest in an associate.

As at 31 March 2021, SPL has an interest-bearing loan receivable of $3,397,660 (2020: $3,397,660) with Diversified. This loan is due for repayment on

12 August 2026.


joint venture

Industre joint venture comprises of Industre Property Tahi Limited (Tahi), Industre Property Rua Limited (Rua) and Industre Property Finance Limited (FinCo).

Tahi and Rua hold legal and beneficial ownership of certain industrial properties. SPL has rights to the net assets of these entities, and consequently these

entities are classified as a joint venture. FinCo is a funding vehicle established to obtain bank borrowings and on-lend the funds to Tahi, Rua and Industre

joint operation, which are financial guarantors in the funding arrangement. As at 31 March 2021, the value of the financial guarantee was nil.

Tahi and Rua are eligible and have elected to be multi-rate PIEs of which the income tax liability arises to the investors. Accordingly, SPL recognises current

and deferred tax as part of its taxes in note 8.1 (rather than as part of the investment in the joint venture).

Summarised financial information for associates and joint venture

The following tables provide summarised financial information for the associates and the joint venture of SPL and reflects the amounts presented in the

financial statements of the relevant associates, not SPL’s share of those amounts. They have been amended to reflect adjustments made by Stride when

using the equity method, including fair value adjustments and modifications for differences in accounting policy.

SPL’s share of profit for Industre joint venture in 2021 relates to the period 1 July 2020 to 31 March 2021. SPL’s share in the Industre joint venture

reduced from 68.25% as at 30 June 2020 to 56.33% as at 31 March 2021 and consequently, the net share of profit has been calculated on the

weighted average participating interest during the period.

The movement between the closing carrying amount and share at carrying percentage for Industre joint venture relates to the $914,000 loss on sale of

properties in exchange for cash received from Industre joint venture.

7.3 Interest in joint arrangements

Accounting policy

Investments in joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations or joint ventures depending on the contractual rights and obligations of

each investor, rather than the legal structure of the joint arrangement.

SPL holds a 50% interest in a joint arrangement with Diversified relating to the investment property at Johnsonville Shopping Centre, Wellington.

SPL holds a 56.33% interest in a joint arrangement with JPMAM relating to the investment properties as denoted in note 3.2.


Johnsonville joint operation

The agreement between SPL and Equity Trustees Limited (as trustee of Diversified) in relation to their co-ownership requires unanimous consent

from all parties for all relevant activities. The two parties have direct rights to the asset and are jointly and severally liable for the liabilities incurred in

relation to the co-owned asset. This arrangement is therefore classified as a joint operation and SPL recognises its direct right to the jointly held assets,

liabilities, revenues and expenses as described below. SIML is the manager of the joint arrangement.

SPL’s portion of the borrowings in the Industre joint operation are with FinCo, which is in the Industre joint venture. This loan is on the same terms as

the banking facility with FinCo, however is payable on demand if called on by FinCo. As at 31 March 2021 SPL and JPMAM, as the participants, have

agreed these borrowings will not be called by FinCo in the next 12 months, unless called on by FinCo’s banking syndicate (which is a non-current

borrowing). As such SPL’s portion of the borrowings in the Industre joint operation have been classified as non-current in the consolidated statement

7.0 Equity-accounted Investments (continued)
7.4 Discontinued operations

Industrial investment properties were considered a major portfolio (sector) of SPL’s operations and were distinguished operationally and for financial

purposes from the other sectors. Discontinued operations refer to a core part of an entity’s operation that has been divested.

As the establishment of Industre saw SPL divest a significant portion of its industrial portfolio, this meets the definition of a discontinued operation.

Only JPMAM’s special purpose vehicle’s participating interest has been treated as discontinued in respect of the joint operation as SPL retained a

partial direct ownership interest in the properties. All of the financial performance and cash flows pertaining to the properties that are transferred to the

Industre joint venture (refer note 7.2) have been treated as discontinued.

The financial performance and cash flow information for the discontinued operations are for the period ended 30 June 2020 (2021 column) and the

year ended 31 March 2020.

8.1 Income tax

Accounting policy

Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax and is recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the year.

Current and deferred tax is calculated on the basis of the laws enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

SPL is a listed Portfolio Investment Entity (PIE) for the purposes of the Income Tax Act 2007 and is required to pay tax to Inland Revenue as in accordance

with the Income Tax Act 2007.

Accounting policy

Deferred tax is provided, using the liability method, on all temporary differences between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying

amounts for financial reporting purposes. Temporary differences include:

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

• tax asset arising from the allowance for impairment;

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

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

For deferred tax liabilities or assets arising on investment property measured at fair value, it is assumed that the carrying amounts of the investment

property will be recovered through sale. Investment properties are independently valued each year and the valuation includes a split between the

land and building components. Deferred tax is provided on the depreciation claimed to date on the building component of the investment properties

and this places reliance on the valuation split provided by the valuers.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset and when the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate

to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to

settle the balances on a net basis.

8.3 Remuneration (continued)
Long term incentive plan

SIML operates a long term incentive plan for its executive team that is intended to align the interests of key employees with the interests of shareholders

and provide a continuing incentive to key employees over the long term horizon. SIML receives services from the employees in exchange for the employees

receiving share based payments only if specified hurdles, relating to the performance of Stride, are achieved.

The share performance rights are measured at fair value at grant date, which is in reference to the fair value of the instruments granted rather than the fair

value of the services from the employees. The fair value is determined using the share price at grant date adjusted for expected dividends and probability of

meeting the performance hurdles. The fair value of rights granted during the year is independently determined using the Monte Carlo simulation model.

The plan provides for the selected employees to be granted rights to be issued shares for nil consideration if certain performance hurdles are met. SIML

has a number of schemes in place. The table below summarises the types of schemes and movement of the share performance rights during the year:

(277)

As at 31 Mar 21-406545951

891

All schemes provide granted rights to be converted into shares for nil consideration if certain performance hurdles are met. Rights under the FY19

scheme were subject to performance conditions that Total Shareholder Returns (TSR) (relative and absolute) and Distributions per Security were met

before a right would vest. With regards to the FY19 (3 year) scheme, 60% performance conditions were met and consequently 60% of the rights were

exercised and 40% lapsed.

One executive team member ceased employment during the year and consequently the rights previously granted to them were forfeited.

Rights under the FY20 and FY21 schemes are subject to the performance conditions that TSR (relative and absolute) is met before a right will vest.

The key features of the plan are as follows:

• the rights are granted for nil consideration and have a nil exercise price;

• rights do not carry any dividend or voting rights prior to vesting;

• each right that vests entitles the employee to receive one fully paid ordinary share in each of SPL and SIML. The shares issued on vesting carry full

voting and dividend rights; and

• the individual must remain an employee of SIML as at the relevant vesting date for any rights to vest.

The participating employees will be liable for the income tax cost of the award of shares and may choose to sell some or all shares to fund this cost upon

issue of the shares. The participants receive one share for every performance right that vests on a tranche date for nil consideration.

Further share performance rights under the long term incentive plan may be issued on an annual basis. However, the terms of the plan, eligible participants,

and offers of further share performance rights may be modified by the SIML Board from time to time, subject to the requirements of the NZX Listing Rules

and applicable laws.

Special share award

A special share award was granted to executives on 16 December 2020. Post balance date, the Boards of SIML and SPL resolved to issue 142,257

ordinary shares in each of them (i.e. 142,257 Stapled Securities) under a SIML special share award to executives in respect of exceptional performance in

FY21 (refer note 8.10). A further 142,257 ordinary shares in each of SIML and SPL (i.e. 142,257 Stapled Securities) will be issued post 31 March 2022 to

those individuals who remain an employee of SIML as at 31 March 2022.

8.5 Trade and other receivables

Accounting policy

Trade and other receivables are recognised at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

Stride has applied the simplified approach to measuring expected credit loss as prescribed by NZ IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, which uses a

lifetime expected loss allowance. A loss allowance is made when there is objective evidence (such as the probability of insolvency or significant

financial difficulties of the debtor) that Stride will not be able to collect all of the amounts due under the original terms of the invoice.

8.8 Investment in subsidiaries

Accounting policy

A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the Parent whereby the Parent has power over the investee, is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns

from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity.

The financial statements of the subsidiaries are included in the financial statements of Stride from the date that control commences until the date that

control ceases. The subsidiaries apply the same accounting policies as Stride.

The acquisition method of accounting has been used to consolidate the subsidiaries of the Parent. All inter-group transactions and balances between

group companies have been eliminated on consolidation.


Subsidiaries of Stride Property Limited

SPL has the following subsidiaries. They are 100% owned, have a 31 March balance date, and are principally involved in the ownership of investment

properties.

• Stride Holdings Limited

• Stride Industrial Property Limited

• Stride Office Property Limited. This company was incorporated on 20 November 2020.


8.9 Contingent liabilities

Stride has no contingent liabilities at balance date (31 Mar 2020: nil).


8.10 Subsequent events

On 13 April 2021, the Boards of SIML and SPL resolved to issue 406,710 ordinary shares in each of them (i.e. 406,710 Stapled Securities) under the

SIML long term incentive scheme (264,453 ordinary shares) and special share award to executives in respect of exceptional performance for FY21

(142,257 ordinary shares).

On 13 April 2021, the SIML Board resolved to grant 663,993 rights under the FY22 long term incentive scheme to selected employees and granted

293,830 rights to executives and other employees of SIML as part of the FY21 short term incentive compensation for these employees in connection

with their exceptional performance during FY21. These rights vest on 31 March 2023, if the relevant employee remains employed by SIML at that time.

On 26 May 2021, SPL entered into an unconditional agreement to acquire the property at 46 Sale Street, Auckland, for $152.0 million. Settlement is

expected to occur on 30 June 2021.

On 27 May 2021, SPL declared a cash dividend for the period 1 January 2021 to 31 March 2021 of 1.6075 cents per share, to be paid on

14 June 2021 to all shareholders on SPL’s register at the close of business on 4 June 2021. At 1.6075 cents per share, the total dividend payment

will be $7,607,253. This dividend will carry imputation credits of 0.620359 cents per share. This dividend has not been recognised in the financial

statements.

On 27 May 2021, SIML declared a cash dividend for the period 1 January 2021 to 31 March 2021 of 0.87 cents per share, to be paid on

14 June 2021 to all shareholders on SIML’s register at the close of business on 4 June 2021. At 0.87 cents per share, the total dividend payment

will be $4,117,145. This dividend will carry imputation credits of 0.338333 cents per share. This dividend has not been recognised in the financial

statements. SIML’s equity (non-controlling interest) consists largely of retained earnings and the declared dividend represents 30% of SIML’s equity as

at 31 March 2021.

Stride Investment Management Limited (SIML) (together Stride), present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Stride as at 31 March

2021, its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with New Zealand Equivalents to International Financial

Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

What we have audited

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

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

• the notes to the consolidated financial statements, which include significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Basis for opinion

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

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

statements section of our report.

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

Independence

We are independent of Stride in accordance with Professional and Ethical Standard 1 International Code of Ethics for Assurance Practitioners

(including International Independence Standards) (New Zealand) (PES 1) issued by the New Zealand Auditing and Assurance Standards Board and

the International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards) issued by the International Ethics

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

Our firm carries out tenancy marketing and operating expenditure audits for Stride and is performing an investigating accountant's role which will result

in the issuance of a limited assurance report. The provision of these other services has not impaired our independence as auditor of Stride.

Key audit matters

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

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

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

Description of the key audit matterHow our audit addressed the key audit matter

Valuation of investment property

As disclosed in note 3.2, the SPL portfolio of investment properties

comprising: office, industrial, retail and development was valued at

$1,044.5 million as at 31 March 2021 (excluding lease liabilities).

Due to the subjectivity in valuing investment properties, where a small

difference in any one of the key market input assumptions, when

aggregated, could result in a material misstatement of the valuation of

investment properties and the significance of investment property to

Stride, this is a key audit matter.

The valuations were performed on behalf of SPL by independent

registered valuers (the “Valuers”).

Two approaches are generally used to determine the fair value of

an investment property: the income capitalisation method and the

discounted cash flow method to arrive at a range of valuation outcomes,

from which the valuers derive a point estimate. For SPL’s property under

development, the residual approach has been used.

For each investment property, key assumptions and estimates are made

in respect of:

• market rentals (for both the income capitalisation and discounted

cash flow method)

• the capitalisation rate (for the income capitalisation method) to

apply to market rentals

• discount rate (for the discounted cash flow method) derived from

comparable market transactions

• the rental growth rate to apply to the market rentals and the

terminal yield to assess the terminal value (for the discounted cash

flow method)

• the estimated cost to complete and the profit and risk allowances

deducted from the ‘as if complete’ valuation (for the residual

approach).

The following assumptions are also taken into account:

• vacancy assumption based on current and expected future market

conditions after expiry of any current lease

• maintenance and capital requirements including any necessary

investments to maintain functionality of a property for its expected

useful life or to address any seismic related matters.

The valuation of investment properties is inherently subjective given that

there are alternative assumptions and valuation methods that may result

in a range of values for a property.

In assessing the valuations, we performed the procedures below.

We held discussions with Stride Investment Management Limited (the

Manager) to understand:

• movements in SPL’s investment property portfolio

• changes in the condition of each property

• the controls in place over the valuation process.

On a sample basis, with particular emphasis on properties with significant

or unusual fluctuations in key inputs compared to other investment

properties held by SPL within the same sector or as compared to market

information, we read individual valuation reports and performed the

following procedures:

• obtained an understanding of the key inputs that caused the

valuation to have a significant or unusual change

• agreed the forecast contractual rental and lease terms to lease

agreements with tenants

• considered whether seismic assessments and/or capital

maintenance requirements had been taken into account in the

valuations with reference to supporting documentation, including

support from third parties.

We also analysed and considered the underlying reason for differences

outside a threshold, between the income capitalisation method value and

the discounted cash flow method value by property.

For the property under development valued using the residual approach,

we obtained evidence to support the estimated cost to complete and

assessed the reasonableness of profit and risk allowances deducted from

the ‘as if complete’ valuation.

We held separate discussions with the valuers to gain an understanding

of the assumptions and estimates used and the valuation methodology

applied. We also sought to understand and consider restrictions

imposed on the valuation process (if any) and the market conditions at

balance date.

We engaged our own in-house valuation experts to critique and

independently assess, based on our experts’ market and valuation

knowledge, the work performed, and assumptions and estimates made

by the valuers on a sample basis.

We have considered the adequacy of the disclosures in the consolidated

financial statements.

Description of the key audit matterHow our audit addressed the key audit matter

Accounting for the Industre transaction

As disclosed in notes 1.8, 7.1, 7.2 and 7.3 of the consolidated financial

statements, the forming of Industre Property Joint Venture (“Industre”)

was a significant event and transaction during the year. Industre is a joint

arrangement between SPL and J.P. Morgan Asset Management (JPMAM)

and commenced operations on 1 July 2020.

On commencement, SPL contributed all of its industrial properties to

Industre and held a 68.25% interest on that date.

The accounting for the arrangements by SPL is a combination of a joint

operation (‘Industre operation’) and joint venture (‘Industre joint venture’).

Given the significance of this transaction and the complexity of the

recognition and measurement principles, this is a key audit matter.

The Manager, aided by their external technical accounting expert,

was required to exercise considerable professional judgement in

determining the appropriate accounting treatment. Significant accounting

considerations included:

• whether SPL and JPMAM have joint control of the entities forming

Industre

• how to measure the loss on disposal of investment properties arising

from SPL’s transfer of the properties to Industre

• whether the investment properties acquired by Industre from SPL

constituted asset acquisitions or a business combination

• whether the disposal of the investment properties by SPL meets the

definition of discontinued operations.

We performed a detailed assessment of the accounting treatment for this

transaction with the involvement of our internal technical experts.

We:

• obtained and reviewed key contracts

• considered the independent technical accounting advice adopted

by the Manager

• assessed the accounting treatment against the relevant accounting

standards in respect of:

-SPL and JPMAM having joint control

-SPL accounting for its ongoing interest either as a joint operation

or a joint venture

-measurement of the loss on disposal of investment properties

transferred to Industre on commencement of operations;

-the disposal of the investment properties meeting the definition

of discontinued operations

-the contribution of the investment properties to Industre not

meeting the definition of a business combination and, as a result,

SPL’s equity contribution in Industre being recognised at the fair

value of the investment properties at 30 June 2020

• reviewed the accounting entries to record the disposal of the

investment properties to Industre

• agreed the key inputs used in the calculation of the loss on disposal

of the investment properties to relevant documents

• considered the adequacy of the disclosures in the consolidated

financial statements.

Our audit approach
Overview

Overall materiality: $2.0 million, which represents approximately 5% of profit before

tax from continuing operations excluding valuation movements relating to investment

properties (including Stride’s share of profit in equity-accounted investments arising from

valuation movements of investment properties).

We chose profit before tax excluding valuation movements relating to investment

properties as the benchmark because, in our view, it is the benchmark against which the

performance of Stride is most commonly measured by users, and is a generally accepted

benchmark.

We agreed with the Audit and Risk Committee that we would report to them misstatements

identified during our audit above $100,000, which represents approximately 5% of our

overall materiality, as well as misstatements below that amount that, in our view, warranted

reporting for qualitative reasons.

We selected transactions and balances to audit based on their materiality to Stride rather

than determining the scope of procedures to perform by auditing only specific subsidiaries

or entities.

As reported above, we have two key audit matters, being:

• Valuation of investment property

• Accounting for the Industre transaction

As part of designing our audit, we determined materiality and assessed the risks of material misstatement in the consolidated financial statements. In

particular, we considered where management made subjective judgements; for example, in respect of significant accounting estimates that involved

making assumptions and considering future events that are inherently uncertain. As in all of our audits, we also addressed the risk of management

override of internal controls, including among other matters, consideration of whether there was evidence of bias that represented a risk of material

misstatement due to fraud.

Materiality

The scope of our audit was influenced by our application of materiality. An audit is designed to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the

consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement. Misstatements may arise due to fraud or error. They are considered material

if, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the consolidated

financial statements.

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

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

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

consolidated financial statements as a whole.

How we tailored our audit scope

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

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

The scope of our audit and the nature, timing and extent of audit procedures performed were determined by our risk assessment, the financial

significance of components and other qualitative factors (including history of misstatement through fraud or error).

Other information

The Directors of SPL and SIML respectively are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the

Annual Report, but does not include the consolidated financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of audit opinion or

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 in the audit, or

otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed on the other information that we obtained prior to the date of

this auditor’s report, 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.

Responsibilities of the Directors for the consolidated financial statements

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

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

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

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the Directors of SPL and SIML respectively are responsible for assessing Stride’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 SPL or SIML or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

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

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

whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a

guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (NZ) and ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can

arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic

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

The Stride Investment Management
Limited (SIML) and Stride Property

Limited (SPL) Boards believe that strong

corporate governance is an essential

foundation for a sustainable and

successful business.

This section of the Annual Report

provides an overview of the corporate

governance policies and practices

adopted and followed by the Boards

of Directors of SPL and SIML. This

statement is current as at 1 May 2021.

Overview of Stride and its Governance Framework

SPL and SIML are both companies incorporated in

New Zealand under the Companies Act. SPL and SIML are

‘Stapled Entities’, with the ordinary shares of SPL and SIML

stapled together and quoted on the Main Board equity

securities market of NZX under a single ticker code ‘SPG’.

This means that one share of SIML and one share of SPL

must be traded together as a single parcel. SPL and SIML

are together referred to as “Stride Property Group”

or “Stride”.

Stride has a ‘non-standard’ (NS) designation due to its

stapled structure. The waivers from the Listing Rules that

have been granted by NZX to give effect to that stapled

structure are described on pages 153 and 154. The

implications of investing in the stapled securities of SPL and

SIML are described on page 155.

The Stride Boards are committed to the highest standards

of business behaviour and accountability, and regularly

review and assess Stride’s governance structures and

processes to ensure these are consistent with best

practice standards.

This section of the Annual Report provides an overview of

Stride’s corporate governance framework and includes

commentary on compliance by Stride with each of the eight

corporate governance principles and recommendations of

the NZX Code for the year ended 31 March 2021, together

with other legal and regulatory disclosures.

For the reporting period, Stride considers that its corporate

governance practices are materially consistent with the

NZX Code, with the exception that no Remuneration

Committee or Nominations Committee was established for

the financial year ended 31 March 2021 as the functions

that would have been performed by these committees were

undertaken by the Stride Boards as a whole. However,

the Boards have now established a Remuneration and

Nomination Committee.

Stride’s governance framework is set out in Diagram 1.

Directors should set high standards of
ethical behaviour, model this behaviour

and hold management accountable

for these standards being followed

throughout the organisation.

The Stride Boards set high standards of ethical behaviour

which inform the overall corporate governance practices of

SPL and SIML. Stride and the Stride Boards adopt an ethics-

based approach to their operations and decision-making.

There are four key behaviours that guide Stride’s business

operations and differentiate Stride from other organisations:

These behaviours are displayed on the walls of

Stride’s head office and guide Stride employees

in their daily business and decision-making. Stride

celebrates employees who demonstrate these

behaviours through regular “In Stride” awards at

company-wide meetings. All employees are able to

nominate their colleagues for an “In Stride” award,

with the awards decided by the SIML executive team.

This encourages employees to think about how they

demonstrate these behaviours and ensure that these

behaviours guide them in their day-to-day work.

Code of Ethics

To support and reinforce the Stride behaviours, Stride

has adopted a Code of Ethics which sets the standard

expected by the Stride Boards and the employees of

SIML when conducting Stride’s business.

The Code of Ethics sets the following standards for

directors and employees:

Act with honesty, integrity and fairness, and

demonstrate respect for others

Adhere to all legal and compliance obligations

Protect Stride’s assets and resources,

including its confidential or sensitive

information, and ensure this protection

extends to the Stride Products

Make every effort to protect the reputation

and brand of SPL and SIML and avoid a

conflict between an individual’s private

activities and the business activities of Stride

The Code of Ethics is supported by other policies,

including the Stride Conflicts Policy, Protected

Disclosures Policy, Securities Trading Policy and

Market Disclosure Policy (which is described in the

commentary related to Principle 4).

Conflicts Policy

Stride takes a conservative approach to conflicts of

interest, given the role of SIML as manager of SPL and

the Stride Products - Investore, Diversified and Industre.

The principles that govern the management of conflicts

of interest are addressed in a number of governance

documents, including the Constitution of each of SPL and

SIML, the Stride Boards’ charter, the Code of Ethics, and

other internal policies.

The Boards have adopted a Conflicts Policy which guides

Directors and SIML employees when a conflict of interest

may arise and sets out procedures for managing conflicts of

interest. The purpose of the Conflicts Policy is to protect the

integrity of decision-making within SPL and SIML, as well as

the Stride Products, the reputation of each of those entities,

those who work within them, and those who own them.

As part of the Conflicts Policy, SIML has adopted an

Acquisition and Leasing Protocol which assists SIML

management and employees in making decisions in the

event of any conflict between the interests of the portfolios

managed by SIML. All transactions in which SIML has, or

may be perceived to have, a conflict of interest (which can

include personal, related party and fund conflicts) will be

conducted in accordance with the Conflicts Policy and

established protocols. SIML’s conflicts manager, who is the

Company Secretary of SIML, oversees the application of the

Conflicts Policy and reports to the SIML Board to ensure

that all conflicts are managed in an appropriate manner.

SIML considers conflict of interest issues on a transaction-

by-transaction basis and will employ specific and additional

procedures for specific transactions as appropriate.

Protected Disclosures Policy

Stride has a Protected Disclosures Policy which provides a

safe process for employees to make an allegation of serious

wrongdoing within Stride.

The following procedure is specified in the policy for

employees to report wrongdoing:

• The wrongdoing is reported to the Disclosure Officer

(the Company Secretary), or where the employee

believes the Disclosure Officer is or may be involved in

the wrongdoing or where it is inappropriate to make the

disclosure to the Disclosure Officer due to the nature

of the information, the information may be reported

NZX Principle 1:

Code of Ethical Behaviour

to the Chief Executive Officer of SIML or a Director of

SPL or SIML, or to an appropriate authority such as the

Police or Serious Fraud Office where appropriate.

• The employee should specify that he or she believes

on reasonable grounds that the information is true,

that he or she wishes to disclose the information so

that the wrongdoing can be investigated, and that he

or she wishes the disclosure to be protected in terms

of the policy.

All reports of wrongdoing will be investigated within

20 working days of the disclosure being made and the

findings of the report will be communicated to the disclosing

employee. The identity of the disclosing employee will be

kept confidential, except with the consent of the disclosing

employee or where required for the investigation.

Securities Trading Policy

The Boards have adopted a Securities Trading Policy which

governs trading in Stride securities by Stride Directors

and SIML employees. The Securities Trading Policy raises

awareness about the insider trading provisions within

the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013 (FMCA) and

reinforces those requirements with additional internal

compliance requirements.

Stride Directors and employees of SIML who wish to

trade in stapled securities of Stride must comply with

the Securities Trading Policy, which sets limited trading

windows and requires all persons to whom the policy

applies to obtain approval prior to trading. Speculative

trading is not permitted, and Directors and employees are

required to hold stapled securities for a minimum of six

months, except in exceptional circumstances and with the

prior approval of the Company Secretary.

People centred

The success of every place we are involved with ultimately

depends on satisfying the wants and needs of people.

At Stride we imagine ourselves in our tenants’

shoes and create the environment they will enjoy

and prosper in.

Discipline driven

Stride people go to great lengths to do the basics of our

business incredibly well. That means getting all the details

right and having a rigorous process to evaluate

every opportunity. We astutely navigate risk,

managing downside and seizing opportunities.

Fresh thinkers

Stride people are at the forefront of new thinking on

capturing the optimum value for people from

properties. Our feet are firmly on the ground while

our heads continuously scan new horizons for

better ways of doing things.

Nimble performers

Our flat, tight structure and our size allow Stride

and our people to be highly responsive to

changing conditions and make fast decisions.

Stride Property GroupStride Property GroupAnnual Report 2021Annual Report 2021122123

To ensure an effective board, there should
be a balance of independence, skills,

knowledge, experience and perspectives.

The Role of the Stride Boards

The SPL Board and the SIML Board are each responsible

for overseeing the effective management and operation of

SPL and SIML respectively. The Boards’ role is to represent

the interests of Stride’s shareholders and ensure that the

operations of Stride are managed so as to achieve Stride’s

strategy and business objectives, within a framework of

regulatory and ethical compliance. The Stride Boards have

adopted a Board charter which sets out the Boards’ roles

and responsibilities. This charter is available on Stride’s

website. The Boards’ charter notes that the Board of SPL

has appointed SIML as its manager, and the Board of SIML

has delegated authority to the Chief Executive Officer of

SIML for the operations and administration of Stride, in

accordance with the Delegations of Authority.

Directors review the Boards’ charter annually, to ensure

it remains consistent with the Boards’ objectives and

responsibilities. A summary of the principal responsibilities

of the Boards and management and how they interact is set

out in Diagram 2.

The Composition of the Boards and

Director Appointment

The Constitution of each of SPL and SIML and the Boards’

charter set out the parameters for the composition of each

Board, which at all times will be identical due to the ‘Stapled

Entity’ structure. The parameters for the composition of the

Boards are as follows:

• A minimum of three Directors

• A maximum of eight Directors

• At least two of the Directors will be Independent

Directors (as defined in the Listing Rules) and ordinarily

resident in New Zealand

The Boards’ charter also requires that the Boards

should comprise:

Directors with an appropriate range of

skills and experience

Directors who have a proper understanding of, and

skill set to deal with, current and emerging issues

of the business

Directors who can effectively review and challenge

the performance of SIML management and

exercise independent judgement


NZX Principle 2:

Board Composition and

Performance

All of the SPL and SIML Directors are considered to be

‘Independent Directors’ under the Listing Rules, which

in summary means that they are free of any business or

other relationship that could reasonably influence, or

could reasonably be perceived to influence, in a material

way, the Director’s capacity to bring an independent

view to decisions in relation to Stride, act in the best

interests of Stride, and represent the interests of Stride’s

shareholders generally.

The Boards have reviewed the status of each of the

Directors and, taking into account the waiver granted

by NZX Regulation in relation to the independence of

Directors that is summarised on page 153, confirm that,

as at the date of the release of this Annual Report and

after considering the relevant factors set out in the NZX

Code, all Directors are independent. An overview of each

of the Directors of SPL and SIML, their status and date

of appointment is set out on pages 14 and 15, with their

attendance at meetings set out on page 134.

In determining that all SPL and SIML Directors are

‘Independent Directors’, careful consideration has been

given to the factors set out in the NZX Code:

• None of the Directors have been employed in an

executive role by Stride;

• None of the Directors currently or within the last

12 months have held a senior role in a provider of

material professional services to Stride or any of its

subsidiaries;

• None of the Directors currently or within the last

three years have had a material business relationship

or material contractual relationship (other than as a

director) with Stride;

• None of the Directors are substantial product holders

of Stride or have any association with a substantial

product holder of Stride;

• None of the Directors have close family ties with any of

the persons listed above;

• None of the Directors have been directors of Stride for

a length of time that may compromise independence.

Stride Property GroupStride Property GroupAnnual Report 2021Annual Report 2021124125

Directors Tim Storey and John Harvey have been directors
of SPL since 2009. The Board has considered this

length of tenure and does not consider that it prejudices

the independence of either Director Tim Storey or John

Harvey, given their governance experience and approach

to Board duties.

The Stride Company Secretary is an employee of SIML

and reports directly to the Chief Executive Officer, and

accordingly participates in the SIML long-term incentive

scheme for senior employees. The Company Secretary

has a legal background and understands the need to

apply impartiality in the role, including the need to ensure

appropriate Board oversight of the business of SPL and

SIML. The Company Secretary has direct access to the

Board Chair and the Chair of the Audit and Risk Committee

where needed.

Independence of Board Chair

The Chair of the Boards is Tim Storey, an independent

Director. The Chief Executive Officer of SIML is Philip

Littlewood, and accordingly there is separation between the

Chair and the Chief Executive Officer.

Appointment of Directors

Potential candidates for appointment as a Director are

nominated by the SIML Board (prior to the establishment

of the Stride Remuneration and Nomination Committee

in 2021) or a SIML shareholder, and are voted on by the

shareholders of SIML. Under SPL’s Constitution, persons

who are appointed as Directors of SIML are automatically

appointed as Directors of SPL.

The Boards may appoint Directors to fill a casual vacancy,

but where a Director is appointed to fill a casual vacancy, the

Director is required to retire and stand for election at the first

Annual Shareholder Meeting after his or her appointment.

To be eligible for selection, candidates must demonstrate

the appropriate qualities and experience for the role of

Director and will be selected on a range of factors, including

property industry knowledge, business acumen, financial

markets, and governance experience. Other factors include

background, professional expertise, and qualifications,

measured against the Boards’ assessment of its overall

skills and needs at the time and having regard to the

strategy of Stride.

Before appointing a new director, the Boards undertake

appropriate pre-appointment checks, including background

checks on education, employment experience, criminal

history, and bankruptcy. No new directors were appointed

to the Boards during FY21.

All new Directors are appointed by way of a formal letter of

appointment setting out the key terms and conditions of

their appointment, including expected time commitment,

remuneration entitlements, and indemnity and insurance

arrangements. New Directors are provided with an

induction pack containing key governance information,

policies and charters, and relevant information necessary

to prepare new Directors for their role. New Directors also

meet each of the key members of management of SIML

as part of an induction programme, designed to provide

new Directors with an overview of Stride, its strategy and

operations, and the markets in which it operates.

Directors’ Skills and Experience

The Boards include Directors who collectively have a

mix of skills, knowledge, experience, and diversity that

enhance the Boards’ operations and assist the Boards

to meet their responsibilities. A balance is maintained

between long serving Directors with experience and

knowledge of the property sector and Stride’s history, and

new Directors who bring fresh perspective and insight. Set

out in Diagram 3 is a summary of the skills and experience

among Directors of the Boards. Individual Director profiles

are set out on the Stride website and on pages 14 and 15

of this Annual Report.

Professional Development, Training and
Independent Advice

The Boards understand the importance of ensuring they

remain current in the knowledge and skills required to

be a Director of SPL and SIML, particularly focussed

on knowledge specific to the property industry, funds

management business, macroeconomic factors and new

regulatory and governance practices, all of which may

impact on Stride’s business and operations. Director

development and education includes briefings from senior

SIML managers and industry experts, and attendance

at conferences. Directors also have access to external

education and professional development training at

Stride’s expense.

Directors are entitled to access such information and

to seek such independent advice as they individually or

collectively consider necessary to fulfil their responsibilities

and permit independent judgement in decision-making.

Boards’ Review

The Boards undertake an annual evaluation of their

performance. In FY21 the Boards undertook a formal

review and evaluation process, facilitated by an external

governance expert. The review focussed on the

effectiveness of the entire Boards, including the leadership

of the Chair and the contribution of individual Directors,

the role of senior management, the dynamics among the

Boards and executives, as well as all Board processes,

structures and activities. The review also revisited the

recommendations provided during the FY20 Board review

to determine how well these have been implemented and

whether improvements are required. The review comprised

interviews and surveys, eliciting the perspectives of Board

members and senior executives.

The recommendations have been reviewed by the Boards

as a whole and are being implemented. One of the

recommendations regarded structure and function of Board

committees, following which the Boards have established

the Remuneration and Nomination Committee. The

recommendations will assist the Boards in their ongoing

development and in the effective functioning of the Boards.

Diversity

The Stride Boards recognise that different perspectives

contribute to a more successful business, and that different

perspectives are often the result of diversity. Stride is

committed to promoting diversity on the SPL and SIML

Boards and SIML, which is the employing entity of Stride, is

committed to promoting diversity within the workplace by

attracting, recruiting, developing, promoting and retaining

the best employees from a diverse pool of individuals. The

Stride Boards acknowledge and value the role that diversity

plays in strengthening Stride and its performance.

Stride has adopted a Diversity Policy which sets out its

commitment to diversity within the organisation. Stride

considers that diversity and inclusion embodies a wide

range of individual attributes, including gender and

ethnicity, age, national origin, sexual orientation, disability

and religious belief.

Stride’s Diversity Policy embraces four key principles:

Merit - Individuals are evaluated based on their

individual skills, performance and capabilities

Fairness & Equality - Stride does not tolerate any

discrimination or harassment in the workplace

of any kind, including, but not limited to, in

recruitment, promotion and remuneration

Promotion of Diverse Ideas - Stride values diversity

in skills, backgrounds, and ideas which come from

a diverse workforce

Culture - Stride believes that diversity is a strong

contributor to a rich workplace culture, where

individuals are free to be themselves and thrive

within Stride

Stride has conducted its annual assessment of its diversity

objectives for FY21 and its progress towards achieving

these objectives. Stride believes that a focus on diversity

and inclusion is an ongoing endeavour and will be a

constant consideration and focus for the Stride Boards.

highest calibre of employees from

a diverse pool of individuals

Improve representation of

women in the Executive and

Leadership Team

As at 31 March 2021, there was one vacancy on the Executive team, being

the General Manager Investment. Accordingly, at 31 March 2021, the gender

split for the executive team was:

Male

71%

Female

29%

(FY20: 75% Male / 25% Female).

Subsequent to balance date the General Manager Investment role has been

filled by a male, following which the gender split in the executive team has

returned to 75% male and 25% female.

The leadership gender split is more balanced:

Male

56%

Female

44%

(FY20: 29% Male / 71% Female)

It is Stride’s policy that all executive and leadership recruitment will include at

least one female in the shortlist wherever possible.

In addition to external recruitment, Stride also values internal recruitment

highly, and during FY21 there were two internal promotions, both of which

were females.

Stride believes that diversity

is an essential component of

a successful business and

acknowledges and values

the role that diversity plays in

strengthening Stride and its

performance

guidance can be provided on appropriate initiatives for FY22.

Table 1 – Diversity Objectives and FY21 Performance

Stride Property GroupStride Property GroupAnnual Report 2021Annual Report 2021128129

During FY21, Stride has advanced its diversity
practices through:

• Participation in the Property Council New Zealand

Diversity and Inclusion Survey 2020. Stride is a

founding partner sponsor to the Property Council

New Zealand Diversity and Inclusion initiative, which

has been established to promote diversity across the

property industry.

• Becoming a Diversity Works member and completing

the Diversity and Inclusion Stocktake in order to

benchmark Stride’s diversity and inclusion position

against other New Zealand companies. Stride intends

to continue to work with Diversity Works during FY22

to advance its diversity and inclusion practices to

ensure they are best practice and support current and

future employees.

Gender Composition of the Boards and Officers of SPL and SIML

* Officer is defined in Listing Rule 3.8.1(c) to mean a person, however designated, who is concerned or takes part in the management of the issuer’s

business and reports directly to the Board or a person who reports to the Board. Stride considers the executive team of SIML, which consists of the

Chief Executive Officer (who reports directly to the Board) plus his direct reports to comprise the Officers of SIML.

• Stride revised and improved its flexible work policy to

encourage employees to work from home if and when

they need to. Stride’s policy is that employees should

be in the office more than they are not, and everyone

should work in the office on Mondays and Fridays

in order to promote the Stride culture and enhance

collaboration. Outside of that, employees can choose

to work from home as it suits them. This supports those

employees who have dependents at home, particularly

when they are unwell.

The board should use committees

where this will enhance its effectiveness

in key areas, while still retaining board

responsibility.

Committees play an important role in Stride’s governance

framework, allowing a subset of the Boards to focus on a

particular area of importance for the Stride Boards, while

still ensuring the Boards as a whole remain responsible for

decision-making.

The Stride Boards have established an Audit and Risk

Committee to assist in the exercise of the Boards’ financial

oversight and risk functions. In addition, during FY21 the

Boards established a permanent Sustainability Committee,

which assists with progressing the sustainability objectives

of the Boards across SPL and SIML. Following balance

date the Boards have also established a Remuneration and

Nomination Committee. Prior to this, these functions were

undertaken by the Boards as a whole.

In addition, the Boards appoint other committees from time

to time as necessary to deal with projects relating to Stride’s

activities. During FY21, a Due Diligence Committee was

established to oversee planning and preparation for the

equity capital raising undertaken during November and

December 2020.

The purpose of the Due Diligence Committee was to

ensure that Stride met its legal obligations in relation to

the equity capital raise. The members of the Due Diligence

Committee comprised a subset of the Boards, together with

representatives of SIML management and advisers.

Audit and Risk Committee

Stride’s Audit and Risk Committee operates under a written

charter, which is reviewed annually by the Committee to

ensure that it remains appropriate and current. The charter

requires that the Audit and Risk Committee be comprised

solely of non-executive Directors, have at least three

members, with the majority of members being Independent

Directors. The Chair of the Audit and Risk Committee is to

be an Independent Director and may not be the Chair of the

Boards. All Committee members must be financially literate

and at least one member will have accounting or related

financial management expertise.

All Directors are members of the Audit and Risk Committee,

with Director John Harvey the Chair of the Committee.

NZX Principle 3:

Board Committees

Stride Property GroupStride Property GroupAnnual Report 2021Annual Report 2021130131

The Boards consider that the Audit and Risk Committee
has the appropriate level of financial acumen and risk

management experience necessary for the Committee to

fulfil its responsibilities. Director John Harvey was formerly

a partner at PwC, the audit firm for Stride. However, as

John Harvey retired from the PwC partnership in 2009, the

Board has determined that his prior relationship with PwC

does not prejudice the independence of the auditor.

Meetings of the Audit and Risk Committee are held at

least twice a year, and are generally held four times per

year, having regard to Stride’s reporting and audit cycle.

Additional meetings are held at the discretion of the Chair,

or if requested by any Audit and Risk Committee member,

the Chief Executive Officer of SIML or the external auditor.

The NZX Code recommends that employees should only

attend Audit and Risk Committee meetings at the invitation

of the Committee. The Chief Executive Officer and senior

management of SIML, and the external auditor, have a

standing invitation to attend Audit and Risk Committee

meetings. The Audit and Risk Committee are free to, and

do, meet separately with the external auditor, without senior

management of SIML present, to discuss audit matters.

The Audit and Risk Committee provides assistance to the

Boards in fulfilling their responsibility to investors in relation

to the reporting practices of Stride, and the quality, integrity

and transparency of the financial reports of Stride. The role

and responsibilities of the Audit and Risk Committee are

summarised in Diagram 4.

Diagram 4 – Role and Responsibilities of Audit and Risk Committee

Sustainability Committee

The Stride Sustainability Committee held its first meeting in

September 2020. The role of the Sustainability Committee

is to identify and consider all relevant environmental, social

and governance matters as they relate to the business of

Stride, and assist the Boards to integrate environmental

and social principles into the governance of the business.

The Sustainability Committee acknowledges that overall

responsibility for governance remains with the Boards.

The Sustainability Committee comprises three Board

members, being Jacqueline Cheyne (Chair of the

Committee), Tim Storey and Philip Ling. Jacqueline Cheyne

is uniquely placed to lead this committee, given her role as

Chair of the External Reporting Board Steering Committee

responsible for development of climate reporting standards,

her role as a director of New Zealand Green Investment

Finance Limited, and her experience with sustainability

matters during her time as a partner of Deloitte, where she

led the Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability Services

function for Deloitte New Zealand for nine years.

The Sustainability Committee meets at least twice a year.

Additional meetings are held at the discretion of the Chair,

or if requested by any Committee member or the Chief

Executive Officer of SIML.

The primary roles of the Sustainability Committee are set

out in Diagram 5.

Due Diligence Committee

During FY21 a temporary Board Committee was

established to oversee the equity capital raising undertaken

in November and December 2020 to partially fund

the acquisition of two Wellington office properties, at

215 Lambton Quay and 20 Customhouse Quay. Four

of the six Stride Directors formed the Due Diligence

Committee, along with members of SIML management and

representatives of Stride’s advisers.

The key function of the Due Diligence Committee was to

oversee and coordinate the due diligence process for the

equity capital raising, which comprised an institutional

placement and a retail offer.

The Due Diligence Committee was responsible for ensuring

that all material information known to Stride was disclosed

to the market and that the offer materials did not contain

any statement that was false, misleading, or deceptive

or which was unsubstantiated, and contained all of the

information required by statute and the Listing Rules. The

Due Diligence Committee also established a system of

continuing enquiry, review, and monitoring of developments

between the date of the offer materials and the allotment

of shares, to ensure no material information arose which

should be disclosed to the market during this period.

Boards and Committee Meetings and Attendance
The Boards’ charter sets out the meeting requirements and

process for each of SPL and SIML. Due to the nature of

the business of each Board, different meeting frequencies

are scheduled. The Board of SIML meets a minimum of

8 times per year and the Board of SPL a minimum of

5 times per year, with additional meetings and conference

calls scheduled as deemed necessary throughout the year

for Directors to undertake their duties. Directors attend

briefings with senior managers of SIML on an ad-hoc basis

and attend investor briefings in connection with their role

as a Director of SPL and SIML. These attendances are

not included in the disclosure in Table 2, but comprise an

important element of Stride Director responsibilities.

The Boards met more regularly during FY21 due to

the need to oversee the business given the impact of

COVID-19 and the activity undertaken by the SPL and SIML

businesses during the year, including acquisitions and the

equity capital raising in November and December 2020.

At each Board meeting, the Boards receive written reports

and presentations from SIML’s Chief Executive Officer

and senior management covering a review of operations

and financial results for the period in review, an overview

of matters for Board approval, an outline of key health,

safety and sustainability matters and, as appropriate, risk

and governance reports. The Boards regularly consider

performance against strategy, set strategic plans and

approve initiatives to meet each of SPL’s and SIML’s

strategic objectives.

The number of Board and Committee meetings held during

the year and details of Directors’ attendance at those

meetings are disclosed in Table 2.

Takeover Protocols

The Boards have adopted takeover protocols, available

on Stride’s website, which set out the procedure to be

followed in the event a takeover offer for Stride is made

or it is foreseeable that an offer may be imminent. The

protocols provide for an independent takeover committee

to be formed, comprising independent Directors of Stride,

to oversee the takeover process and ensure compliance

with Stride’s obligations under the Takeovers Code. The

protocols also govern the procedure for communications

with the bidder, and with the market and investors.

The board should demand integrity in

financial and non-financial reporting,

and in the timeliness and balance of

corporate disclosures.

Market Disclosure Policy

Stride’s Market Disclosure Policy ensures Stride meets

its obligations to keep the market informed of all material

information. Both SPL and SIML are committed to:

Ensuring that shareholders and the market are

provided with full and timely information about

their activities

Complying with the general and continuous

disclosure principles contained in statute and in

the Listing Rules

Ensuring that all market participants have equal

opportunities to receive externally available

information issued by Stride

The Market Disclosure Policy obliges all Directors of SPL

and SIML and executive officers of SIML to inform the Chief

Executive Officer of SIML or the SIML General Manager

Corporate Services (who is also the Disclosure Officer

under the Policy) of any potentially material information or

proposal immediately after the relevant person becomes

aware of that information or proposal. A Disclosure

Committee, comprising the Stride Chair and SIML’s Chief

Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and General

Manager Corporate Services, is responsible for making

decisions about what information is material information

and ensuring that appropriate disclosures are made in a

timely manner to the market.

Access to Key Governance Documents

The Boards’ charter and the charters of the standing

Committees, being the Audit and Risk Committee and

the Sustainability Committee (and, after 31 March 2021,

the Remuneration and Nomination Committee), as well as

annual and interim reports, announcements, key corporate

governance policies and other investor-related material are

available on the Stride website at www.strideproperty.co.nz.

SIML does not presently include its remuneration

policy on the Stride website, as its policy contains

commercially sensitive information pertaining to how

employees are remunerated.

Financial Reporting
Stride’s Audit and Risk Committee oversees SPL and

SIML’s financial reporting, to ensure reporting is balanced,

clear and objective. Further information on the role

and responsibilities of the Audit and Risk Committee is

contained in the commentary related to Principle 3.

Non-Financial Reporting

Risks

The Audit and Risk Committee establishes processes

to identify and consider the material business risks

faced by SPL and SIML. The Stride Boards regularly

receive risk management reports and review key risks

to the businesses of SPL and SIML, and the controls

implemented to manage exposure to those risks. All

identified risks have specific mitigation strategies where

appropriate, and SIML management regularly reviews the

effectiveness of these strategies.

Environmental Sustainability, Social Responsibility and

Corporate Governance

Stride is committed to ensuring that Environmental

Sustainability, Social Responsibility and Corporate

Governance (ESG) are key considerations in the operation

and governance of its business.

Stride believes that the key elements of a sustainable

business strategy include balancing prosperity, planet

and people, which align with Stride’s four strategic pillars

of Performance, People, Places, and Products. The

Stride Boards believe there needs to be an equal focus

and balance among each of Stride’s pillars to create a

successful and sustainable business.

During FY21, Stride refreshed its sustainability strategic

plan, which is focused on three distinct goals. This plan

sets the primary objectives that Stride considers in its

decision-making.

Stride’s Sustainability Strategic Plan

DescriptionWe want to provide leading health

and safety performance and support

We want to create efficient, climate-

UN Sustainable

Development Goals

Climate Risks

During FY21 Stride’s Sustainability Committee considered

the key risks, at a high level, that may be faced by Stride

in relation to climate change, and, in accordance with

the Taskforce on Climate-related Financial Disclosures,

categorised those risks into two categories – transition

risks, being those associated with transitioning to a low-

carbon economy; and physical risks, being risks arising

as a result of changes in the physical climate and acute

climate events.

A summary of the high level climate change risks assessed

by the business and reported to the Stride Sustainability

Committee is set out on pages 50 and 51 of this Annual

Report. During FY22 Stride intends to undertake further

work, through the Sustainability Committee, to refine these

risks and develop a detailed and comprehensive climate

risk assessment for Stride and its managed entities.

Community Involvement

Community involvement continues to be a focus for Stride,

given its role as owner and manager of buildings within

communities. During FY21 Stride undertook a number

of initiatives aimed at developing relationships with the

local community and seeking to support community and

educational groups in the areas in which it operates.

Stride considers that this involvement was particularly

important during FY21, due to the impact of COVID-19

on our communities. Some of the key ways in which Stride

contributes to the communities in which it operates are set

out in Diagram 6, and further information can be found on

pages 54 and 55 of this Annual Report.

• Stride is also a sponsor of the Graeme Dingle Foundation

whose aim is to inspire all New Zealand school age children

to reach their full potential

• Stride is a Founding Partner Sponsor to the Property Council

New Zealand Diversity and Inclusion initiative, which aims to

promote diversity in the property industry

• Stride sponsors a promising young female athlete through

the Tania Dalton Foundation. The student chosen by Stride

is located in an area that is relevant to Stride, being an area

where Stride has employees who manage a shopping centre

• All SIML managed shopping centres provide free activities

2020 school holidays when New Zealand was in Alert Level

4 lockdown, Johnsonville Shopping Centre provided a daily

Facebook live magic show to help keep children entertained

• Chartwell and Queensgate Shopping Centres support

“Dress for Success”, a charity which assists women to re-

enter the workforce, through being a collection point

for clothes

• SIML-managed shopping centres provide space for

community groups and charities, to assist them to achieve

their objectives. The organisations that benefited from this

space during FY21 included St John, Safer Plates Initiative,

Red Cross, Child Cancer Foundation, Women’s Refuge,

Breast Cancer Foundation, Heart Foundation and a number

of hospices

• Stride undertook a number of collections of donations

during FY21 for City Mission, the Salvation Army and other

charities in need, including through annual gift wrapping

services where members of the public make a donation

in return for having their gifts wrapped using resources

donated by the centres

Stride Property GroupStride Property GroupAnnual Report 2021Annual Report 2021136137

The remuneration of directors and
executives should be transparent, fair

and reasonable.

Directors’ Remuneration

Directors are remunerated in the form of Directors’ fees,

approved by shareholders, including a higher level of

fees for the Chair of the Boards and Chair of the Audit

and Risk Committee, to reflect the additional time and

responsibilities that these positions involve.

Directors are paid through a contribution from both SIML

and SPL. However, under waivers granted by NZX, there is

no requirement that Directors’ remuneration be authorised

by separate resolutions of SPL and SIML.

Directors’ remuneration was reviewed in 2019, in

accordance with the two-yearly review cycle that Stride

previously signalled to the market. The SIML Board is

conscious of its obligation to ensure Directors’ fees are

set and managed in a manner which is fair, flexible and

transparent. At the same time, the SIML Board seeks

to ensure that Directors’ fees are set at an appropriate

level to assist Stride to secure and maintain the skills and

experience at Board level necessary to govern the business

and enhance the long-term value of Stride for shareholders.

When the Board reviews Directors’ fees on a two-yearly

cycle, it obtains a report from Ernst & Young, comparing

Stride Director fees against market comparable fees given

the size, type of business and nature of the organisation.

NZX Principle 5:

Remuneration

The SIML Board has an allowance for additional work and

attendance, of $144,500 per annum. The Boards may

determine the allocation of all or part of this allowance for

additional work and attendances to remunerate Directors

for significant extra attendances and work. For the

year in review this allowance was not utilised. Directors

contributed additional time and attendance due to the

need for additional meetings during the period directly

impacted by COVID-19, and for those who formed part

of the Due Diligence Committee in relation to the equity

capital raising conducted in November and December

2020. However, Directors did not receive additional

remuneration for these attendances.

No Director of SPL or SIML is entitled to any remuneration

from Stride other than by way of Directors’ fees and the

reasonable reimbursement of travelling, accommodation

and other expenses incurred in the course of performing

duties or exercising their role as a Director. Directors do not

participate in any Stride share or option plan. No Director

of a subsidiary company of Stride (a list of subsidiary

companies and directors is set out in the Statutory

Disclosures on page 149) received any remuneration or

other benefits during the period in relation to their duties

as directors of a subsidiary company, other than the benefit

of an indemnity from each of SPL and SIML and the benefit

of insurance cover in respect of all liabilities (to the extent

permitted by law) which arise out of the performance

of their normal duties as Directors, subject to certain

exceptions such as deliberate breach of duty. Directors

have no retirement benefit and do not receive any share

options or rights or other form of remuneration.

Senior Management Remuneration

SIML is committed to a fair and reasonable remuneration framework for its executives. In determining an executive’s total

remuneration, external benchmarking is undertaken by independent remuneration advisors every two years to ensure

comparability and competitiveness, along with consideration of the individual’s performance, skills, expertise and experience.

Total executive remuneration can be made up of three components: fixed remuneration, a short-term incentive scheme and an

executive long-term share incentive scheme.

Fixed remuneration

Fixed remuneration consists of base salary. It is SIML’s policy to pay fixed remuneration for executives in the upper

quartile, in order to attract and retain talented people.

Short-term incentive

scheme

SIML operates a short term incentive scheme under which selected permanent, full-time employees may be eligible

to receive an incentive on an annual basis in addition to their base salary. Entitlement to the incentive is subject to pre-

agreed hurdles being met, which are aligned to Stride’s performance targets for the year.

Executive long-term

share incentive

scheme

SIML operates a long-term share incentive scheme for the executive team, intended to align the interests of key

employees with the interests of shareholders and provide a continuing incentive to key employees over the long term.

Share performance rights under the SIML long-term share incentive scheme may be issued on an annual basis at the

discretion of the Board.

The scheme provides for selected employees to be granted rights to be issued shares for nil consideration if certain

performance hurdles are met. The key features of the plan for rights awarded in FY21 are as follows:

• The rights are granted for nil consideration and have a nil exercise price

• Rights do not carry any dividend or voting rights prior to vesting

• Each right that vests entitles the employee to receive one fully paid ordinary share in SPL and SIML. The shares

issued on vesting carry full voting and dividend rights

• The individual must remain an employee of SIML at the relevant vesting date for any rights to vest

Further details of the SIML long-term share incentive scheme can be found in note 8.3 to the consolidated financial

statements.

Performance is determined over a three year vesting period, and the vesting of rights depends on certain hurdles being

met. For the rights granted during FY21, those hurdles comprised:

• Relative Total Shareholder Return (TSR) – 50% of rights are subject to Stride’s TSR growth performance,

relative to constituents of the NZX Property Index.

• Absolute Total Shareholder Return (TSR) – 50% of rights are subject to Stride’s absolute TSR performance

compared to certain thresholds.

All employees are eligible to contribute and receive

matching SIML contributions of up to 4% of gross taxable

earnings (including short-term incentives). From 1 April

2021, the SIML Board has determined to increase

the employer KiwiSaver contributions to 5%, provided

employees are contributing at a rate of 4% or higher (which

will increase to 5% should this be an option for employee

contributions in the future).

Stride Property GroupStride Property GroupAnnual Report 2021Annual Report 2021140141

Directors should have a sound
understanding of the material risks faced

by the issuer and how to manage them.

The board should regularly verify that

the issuer has appropriate processes

that identify and manage potential and

material risks.

Risk Management Framework

The Stride Boards consider effective management of risks

to the operations and business of Stride to be an essential

part of their responsibilities. The Boards are responsible

for overseeing and approving the Stride risk management

strategy and policies, as well as ensuring effective audit,

risk management and compliance systems are in place.

The Audit and Risk Committee assists the Boards in

fulfilling their risk assurance and audit responsibilities.

Stride has a risk management framework in place,

supported by a set of risk-based policies appropriate for

the business, including a Treasury Policy, Conflicts Policy,

Investment Mandates across each Stride Product where

relevant, and Delegations of Authority. The principal

purpose of this framework is to integrate risk management

into Stride’s operations, and to formalise risk management

as part of Stride’s internal control and corporate

governance arrangements.

As part of the risk management framework, SIML

management maintains a comprehensive risk register for

the Stride business and for each of the Stride Products,

recording the key risks to the relevant business and

operations, and assigning each risk a risk rating based on

the likelihood and impact of the risk, as well as mitigation

strategies and the risk rating after implementation of the

mitigation strategies.

The Stride Boards receive a report on the material risks

facing the business every six months, as well as mitigation

strategies that are in place to manage those risks. This

report also includes notification of any changes to the risk

level or any new material risks that the business is facing.

These risks include financial, operational, compliance,

reputational, and health and safety risks, among others.

The key risk facing Stride during FY21 was the impact

of COVID-19, particularly given that Stride owns and

manages a number of retail shopping centres. Stride was

also cognisant of the different opportunities and challenges

posed by COVID-19 for the various Stride Products and

ensured that the approach to COVID-19 was tailored to the

needs of each Stride Product.

NZX Principle 6:

Risk Management

As reported in the “Sustainability” section of this report,

the Board is conscious of the risks posed by climate

change, and during FY22 will complete a climate risk

assessment for Stride and the Stride Products to develop a

comprehensive understanding of the risks posed to Stride’s

business through climate change and the response to

climate change.

Management of Health and Safety Risk

Stride is committed to ensuring that all persons, including

employees, consultants and contractors, tenants, and

members of the public, are safe from harm at work or while

on any site owned or managed by Stride. Stride’s overriding

health and safety objective is:

Our people are healthy and return

home safe and well


The Stride Boards acknowledge that effective governance of

health and safety is essential for the continued success of Stride

and its operations, the wellbeing of our people and others who

occupy or visit properties that are owned or managed by Stride.

The Stride health and safety charter is available on the Stride

website at www.strideproperty.co.nz. This charter reflects

that the Boards as a whole are responsible for the governance

of health and safety and have responsibility for leading the

health and safety culture and vision at Stride. The Board of

SIML also recognises that it plays a key role in managing health

and safety risks at properties owned by SPL and the Stride

Products in its role as manager of the Stride Products.

Health and safety risks at all sites, whether owned or

managed, are assessed and reported to the Boards, using

the same risk assessment methodology used to assess and

report on other risks. Health and safety risks are identified

and considered in terms of their impact, likelihood and

overall risk rating, with specific mitigating plans in place for

each risk. SIML works closely with tenants and contractors

to minimise and, where practicable, eliminate all property

related risks.

Contractor management remains a key health and safety

risk faced by Stride. Stride works hard to develop and

embed a positive health and safety culture throughout its

area of influence, including tenants, contractors and the

supply chain. SIML continues to work with contractors to

ensure that appropriate health and safety practices are

employed, and that contractors are minimising risk to staff,

public and tenants in undertaking their activities. Stride

remains vigilant in its engagement and management of

contractors to seek to ensure the work undertaken is safe

for all those involved, both those completing the work

and those in the area. For major developments SIML will

engage an external firm to audit health and safety practices

on site on a monthly basis, with the results of that review

reported to the Board.

During FY21, the key health and safety issue facing

Stride was the impact of COVID-19 on its operations and

those of the Stride Products and tenants. A number of

sites managed by SIML had tenants that were considered

‘essential businesses’ within the Government definition

on the www.covid19.govt.nz website, and therefore

the sites those tenants operated from were required to

be kept operational. Stride, in conjunction with these

tenants, identified those contractors that were required

to keep the sites operational and safe, and identified and

reviewed those contractors’ processes and procedures

for safe operating. As the alert levels changed, Stride’s

key focus was ensuring appropriate information was

provided to contractors and tenants regarding operational

expectations such as physical distancing, contact

tracing and sanitising, and monitoring to ensure these

expectations were being met.

During FY21 the SIML Board reviewed its health and

safety practices against best practice to ensure that it was

exercising its due diligence obligations in relation to health

and safety within Stride. The Board has requested SIML

management to undertake an external review of health

and safety practices during FY22, in accordance with the

Board’s policy of having an independent review every two

years, to ensure practices remain current and appropriate.

Stride Property GroupStride Property GroupAnnual Report 2021Annual Report 2021142143

The board should ensure the quality
and independence of the external

audit process.

External Audit Function and Audit Independence

PwC is the auditor of Stride. The key framework for the

relationship between the issuer and its external auditor

is comprised in the Audit and Risk Committee charter,

which includes the audit independence guidelines. These

guidelines require compliance with the Listing Rules, which

require rotation of the lead audit partner at least every five

years. FY21 represents the fifth audit for Stride’s current

audit partner, and accordingly a new audit partner within

PwC will be appointed for FY22 for Stride.

Stride does not have a policy of rotating its audit firm,

on the basis that there is a limited pool of external audit

firms within New Zealand and Stride engages the other

major firms for non-audit services, meaning they would be

conflicted if approached to act as auditor. The Audit and

Risk Committee will continue to consider rotating Stride’s

audit firm on an ongoing basis as appropriate.

The audit independence guidelines also set out a

description for determining the non-audit services that may

be provided by the external auditor without compromising

the external auditor’s independence. The Audit and Risk

Committee regularly monitor non-audit services provided

by the external auditor and confirm whether these services

prejudice the maintenance of independence of the auditor.

The purpose of the audit independence framework is to

ensure that audit independence is maintained, both in fact

and appearance, so that Stride’s external financial reporting

is reliable and credible. For FY21, PwC, as auditor, did not

provide any services other than audit and review of financial

statements and other assurance services.

The Audit and Risk Committee meet at least twice a year

with the external auditor. The external auditor is invited

to attend meetings of the Audit and Risk Committee as

required, with Directors free to make direct contact with the

external auditor as necessary to obtain independent advice

and information. In the interests of encouraging active

participation by shareholders at the Annual Shareholder

Meetings, Stride’s external auditor is in attendance to

answer any questions shareholders may have in relation to

the audit of the annual financial statements.

NZX Principle 7:

Auditors

Internal Audit Function

Stride does not employ internal auditors. Instead, Stride

adopts a process of project-specific internal audits, through

engaging consultants to undertake internal reviews or

assessments on a project-by-project basis. Selected

consultants are engaged to assess, amongst other things,

Stride’s internal control systems, financial reporting

system, risk management and the integrity of the financial

information reported to the Boards. Project based reviews

or assessments can operate both with and independently

from management, with all findings reported to the relevant

Board or Committee.

The board should respect the rights of

shareholders and foster constructive

relationships with shareholders that

encourage them to engage with the issuer.

Investor Communications

The Boards believe transparent and open communication

with shareholders is important to ensure effective

participation by shareholders in the business of Stride.

Shareholders deserve to be provided with all relevant

information about the performance of their investment and

to be informed on any significant matters relating to their

investment in Stride. Stride is committed to notifying the

market of any material information related to its operations

as required by the Listing Rules.

All announcements are posted on Stride’s page on the

NZX website, www.nzx.com. Following release on the

NZX, copies of the announcements and information

released to NZX are posted on Stride’s website,

www.strideproperty.co.nz.

The Boards have adopted a Market Disclosure Policy

that establishes procedures aimed at ensuring Directors

and management are aware of and fulfil their disclosure

obligations under the Listing Rules (as addressed under

Principle 4). Significant market announcements, including

the announcement of the half year and full year results, the

accounts for those periods and any advice of a change in

earnings forecast, require prior review and approval of

each Board.

In addition to these general disclosure obligations,

the Market Disclosure Policy requires Directors and

management to regularly consider whether there is any

information that may require disclosure in accordance with

the Market Disclosure Policy, the Listing Rules, the FMCA

and best practice in this area. Board agendas include a

consideration of any matters for disclosure as the last item

on the agenda, and the Boards turn their mind to whether

anything that has arisen or been discussed during the

meeting requires disclosure.

Management and the Boards are also in contact between

meetings as matters arise, and consideration is given to

whether any matters are material and require disclosure.

NZX Principle 8:

Shareholder Rights

and Relations

The Stride website has copies of all presentations and

reports released by Stride, and shareholders are encouraged

to refer to the website www.strideproperty.co.nz for

information on SPL and SIML.

Stride’s annual reports and interim reports are available

electronically on Stride’s website and investors can request

hard copies (where available) by contacting Stride’s Share

Registrar (whose contact details can be found in the

Corporate Directory at the back of this Annual Report).

Each notice of meeting for shareholder meetings and

transcripts of those meetings are made available on Stride’s

website and on the NZX. Stride encourages investors to

receive investor communications by electronic means

where possible.

Notice of Shareholder Meetings

In order for shareholders to fully participate in shareholder

meetings, the Boards will endeavour where possible, to

distribute the Notice of Meetings at least 20 working

days prior to any shareholder meetings. During FY21

shareholders were given at least 20 working days’ notice of

the Annual Shareholder Meetings of SPL and SIML held on

29 July 2020.

Annual Shareholder Meetings

SPL and SIML hold their Annual Shareholder Meetings

at the same time, with separate votes held in relation

to shareholder resolutions of SIML and shareholder

resolutions of SPL. SIML and SPL shareholders have one

vote per share they hold in SIML and SPL respectively, and

have the right to vote on major decisions in accordance with

the Listing Rules.

Shareholders are encouraged to attend the SIML and SPL

Annual Shareholder Meetings and take the opportunity

to meet the Stride Boards and SIML senior managers.

All Directors and SIML senior managers attend the

shareholder meetings and are available for questions. The

Chair provides time for questions from the floor and these

are answered by the appropriate member of the Boards or

SIML management.

Stride’s external auditor attends the meeting and is

available to take questions on the preparation of the

financial statements and the auditor’s report.

Stride Property GroupStride Property GroupAnnual Report 2021Annual Report 2021144145

Equity Capital Raise
Stride undertook an equity capital raise during November and

December 2020 (the Capital Raise), comprising:

• a $180 million underwritten share placement

(Placement); and

• a share purchase plan to eligible shareholders of up to

$40 million, with Stride having a discretion as to whether

to accept additional applications (SPP).

The Capital Raise was successfully completed on

15 December 2020 and Stride elected to accept additional

applications of $10 million under the SPP. Accordingly,

approximately 107.5 million shares were issued at $2.14 per

share, equating to $230 million of gross proceeds raised. The

net proceeds of the Capital Raise were used to partly fund

the acquisitions of 215 Lambton Quay and 20 Customhouse

Quay, and to capitalise SIML.

The SPP permitted each eligible shareholder to apply for up

to $50,000 of additional shares in Stride, under NZX Listing

Rule 4.3.1(c) as modified by the class waiver and ruling

issued by NZX Regulation dated 19 March 2020. The effect

of the class waiver and ruling issued by NZX Regulation was

to temporarily increase the aggregate issue price of shares

that may be issued to each shareholder under a Share

Purchase Plan to $50,000 in any 12 month period, for a

short period of time, to assist issuers to raise capital given

the impacts of COVID-19.

The Stride Board determined, having received advice on

options for the structure of the Capital Raise, to undertake

the Capital Raise by way of the Placement and SPP (rather

than under a pro rata structure such as a rights or entitlement

offer) for a number of reasons:

• Due to the timing of release of Stride’s interim results

on 25 November 2020 and entry into the agreement to

acquire the property at 20 Customhouse Quay (late on

24 November 2020) and the unconditional agreement

to acquire the property at 215 Lambton Quay

(19 November 2020), the Placement and SPP were able

to be completed before the Christmas holiday period,

while other forms of capital raising may not have been

able to be completed in this time period;

• The Placement and SPP could be, and was, sized

and structured in such a way as to enable almost

all shareholders to apply for at least their pro rata

shareholding in Stride;

• Overall, 99% of the SPP participants by number had the

ability to at least receive their pro rata allocation through

the SPP;

• By relying on the NZX class waiver and ruling, the SPP

of up to $50,000 worth of shares per registered holder

enabled approximately 98% of Stride’s shareholders to

participate in the SPP to a level which at least maintained

their pre-offer holding; and shareholders with holdings

of up to $400,000 were able to main their pro rata

shareholding. Stride expects that shareholders with

holdings greater than this amount would likely have been

able to participate in the Placement either directly as an

institution or indirectly through the retail broker channel;

• Overall, approximately 99.6% of eligible shareholders

had the ability to participate to maintain at least their

pro rata shareholding through the Capital Raise,

taking into account Stride’s total eligible shareholders

and those who were able to participate in either the

Placement or SPP;

• The SPP enabled smaller shareholders to participate in

the equity raising at the same price as institutions in the

Placement but with the benefit of having a longer offer

period to consider participation.

Indemnity and Insurance
In accordance with section 162 of the Companies Act and the Constitutions of each of SIML and SPL, each of SIML and SPL

has entered into a deed of access, indemnity and insurance to indemnify its Directors and the Directors of its subsidiaries

for liabilities or costs they may incur for acts or omissions in their capacity as a Director to the extent permitted under the

In authorising any insurance to be effected, each Director signs a certificate stating that, in their opinion, the cost of the

insurance is fair to SIML and SPL.

PwC has continued to act as auditor for Stride and the

amounts payable by Stride and its subsidiaries to PwC for audit

fees and non-audit work fees undertaken in respect of FY21

are set out in note 8.2 to the consolidated financial statements.

NZX Waivers

During FY21 Stride was granted or relied on certain

waivers from the Listing Rules, which are described in this

section. NZX Regulation reviewed the waivers that had

been granted to Stride in relation to the Listing Rules dated

1 October 2017 and issued a new set of waivers on

28 May 2020. A copy of these waivers is available at

www.nzx.com/companies/SPG.

Ruling on the Definition of “Associated Person”

A ruling that, for the purposes of the definition of

“Associated Person” in the Listing Rules, Investore is not an

“Associated Person” of SIML and accordingly, Investore is

not a “Related Party” of SIML.

Ruling on definition of “Disqualifying Relationship”

A ruling that, for the purposes of the definition of

“Disqualifying Relationship” in the Listing Rules, any

reference to “Issuer” shall be a reference to the “Stapled

Group” (Stride).

Listing Rules 2.2 to 2.5 and 2.7 to 2.8

This waiver permits:

• The SPL Board and the SIML Board to be made up of

the same people;

• An SPL Board member to be deemed to be appointed

(or removed) to the SPL Board if appointed to (or

removed from) the SIML Board; and

• The SPL Board members to retire from the SPL Board

by rotation at the same time as they retire from the

SIML Board.

Listing Rule 2.10.1

This waiver permits the Directors of one Stride company to

vote on matters in which they are “interested” due to being

a Director of the other Stride company. Directors will not be

permitted to vote on matters in which they are “interested”

by virtue of a relationship or interest other than their

directorship of the Stapled Entities.

Listing Rule 2.11

This waiver permits the pooling of Director remuneration for

Stride, and the approval of Director remuneration by way of

a single resolution of SIML shareholders.

Listing Rules 2.14.1, 2.14.2, 7.8 and 7.9

This waiver permits Stride to provide consolidated notices,

reports and communications (including notices of meetings)

to shareholders. This will not affect the obligation for each

of SPL and SIML to hold separate meetings (albeit that they

will occur one after the other).

Stride Property GroupStride Property GroupAnnual Report 2021Annual Report 2021152153

Listing Rule 4.6.1
This waiver permits SPL to issue shares to SIML employees

under a SIML employee share plan (if any), in order to

ensure that the number of SPL shares on issue is the same

as the number of SIML shares on issue at all times.

Listing Rules 3.13.1, 3.14.2 and 3.15

This waiver permits the Stride companies to announce,

via NZX, issues, acquisitions, conversions or redemptions

of securities on a consolidated basis. Dividends will be

separately announced by each of SPL and SIML.

Listing Rule 5.2.1

This waiver permits:

• each of SPL and SIML to enter into one or more

Material Transactions (as defined in the Listing Rules)

for the purposes of enabling SPL and/or SIML to

establish or acquire new property investment vehicles

without shareholder approval; and

• SPL and SIML to enter into one or more “Material

Transactions” for the purposes of enabling SIML

to establish or acquire new property management

opportunities without shareholder approval.

Ruling on definition of “Average Market Capitalisation”

and “Average Market Price”

A ruling that the term “Issuer” in the definition of “Average

Market Price” refers to the “Stapled Group” (Stride) and the

term “Quoted Equity Securities” in the definition of “Average

Market Capitalisation” refers to the stapled securities of

SPL and SIML.

Ruling on the definition of “Material Information”

A ruling that the reference to “price of quoted financial

products of the listed issuer” in the definition of “Material

Information” should be read as applying to the price of the

stapled securities of SPL and SIML. This ruling requires that

any announcement must explain whether the information is

material to SPL or SIML.

Listing Rules 3.5, 3.6.1(a), 3.7 and 3.8

This waiver permits the Stride companies to provide certain

information required in annual and half year reports on a

consolidated basis, rather than by and in respect of each

Stride company individually. This waiver is subject to the

additional condition that each of the Stride companies

release individual financial statements to the extent

required by applicable financial reporting legislation.

Listing Rule 8.3

This waiver permits the Stride companies to provide

consolidated statements of shareholdings to shareholders

which shows their overall Stride holding, rather than their

shareholding in each Stride company separately.

Equity Capital Raise

In addition, in connection with the Capital Raise undertaken

in November and December 2020, Stride relied on the

class waiver and ruling issue by NZX Regulation dated

19 March 2020 to increase the limit per registered holder

to $50,000, which is outlined below.

Limb (a) of the definition of “Share Purchase Plan”

The definition of Share Purchase Plan in the Listing Rules

provides that the consideration payable for the equity

securities issued under the Share Purchase Plan must not

exceed $15,000 per registered holder in any 12 month

period. This definition was amended by way of a class

waiver and ruling issued by NZX Regulation dated

19 March 2020 to increase the limit per registered holder

to $50,000.

Financial Reporting Exemption

The financial statements for each Stride company were

prepared in accordance with the Financial Markets Conduct

(Stride Property Group) Exemption Notice 2017. This

exemption allows SPL and SIML, subject to conditions set

out in the exemption notice, to prepare financial statements

in respect of Stride, while they remain stapled (in place of

separate financial statements for each company).

The practical implications 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 companies as a whole, but each of

SPL and SIML will continue to be obliged to make

announcements under the 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 Main Board 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 both SPL and SIML

• Distributions will be received, to the extent declared,

from each of SPL and SIML

Building out the Stride platform

Since the establishment of Stride’s REIM platform in FY17, Stride’s

look-through portfolio weightings have changed as follows:

•Officehas doubled to 40% in FY21 following acquisitions

•Industrialhas increased to 24% in FY21 following completed

acquisitions and developments and strong revaluations

•Large format retail (LFR)has reduced to 14% due to divestment of

SPL’s remaining directly-held LFR assets in April 2020 to Investore and

growth of other asset classes

•Town Centrehas reduced to 22% in FY21, as Stride’s strategic focus

has been on growing and establishing its industrial and office exposure

•Base management fee income has grown to 14% of Stride’s total

revenue for FY21, rising to 23% when including activity-based fees

1.As at 31 March for the relevant period and excluding lease liabilities.

2.Stride’s revenue comprises SIML management fees and SPL revenue. SPL revenue comprises income derived from SPL’s

directly-held property plus revenue derived from its interests in the Stride Products which is calculated based on net

Contract Rental on a look-through basis as at 31 March for the relevant period. Base management fees comprise

management fees from Stride Products (i.e. excluding fees from SPL) and exclude activity or performance based fees.

Execution of strategy is delivering greater scale to Stride’s

real estate investment management (REIM) platform,

which is leading to increased diversification across property

sectors and income sources
