Precinct Properties New Zealand Limited (Precinct) (NZX: PCT) reported its financial results for the
six months ended 31 December 2021 today.
Strong leasing performance has delivered a 1.5% increase in net property income (NPI) for the 6
months to 31 December 2021 or $61.1 million (December 2021: $60.2 million). This level of NPI is
after providing $5.5 million (equivalent to 25 bps to AFFO) in rental support for the retail and office
portfolios. This has contributed to net operating income before tax of $45.5 million, up 6.3% on the
previous comparable period (1H20: $42.8 million).
While sales performance at Commercial Bay retail has been improving since moving to the
COVID-19 Protection Framework at the beginning of December last year, overall pedestrian flows
are well below average levels. Lockdowns and prolonged restrictions have negatively impacted
several of Precinct’s retailers and hospitality venues. Covid related rental support provided to
retailers during the period totalled $4.2 million.
Total comprehensive income after tax of $40.7 million compares to $167.9 million for the same
period last year, with the difference due to the significant portfolio revaluation gain of $148.5
million reported in the previous comparable period. An internal review of the 30 June 2021
property valuations undertaken at 31 December 2021 indicated no material value movement in
the period for all the assets. Precinct’s current tax expense recorded a positive outcome of $3.3
million for the first half of FY22 (1H21: -$6.5 million).
Ensuring Precinct has sufficient balance sheet capacity means the business is well placed to
achieve the best results across our operational business into the future. Precinct’s gearing level
as measured under borrower covenants remains well under PCT’s borrower covenant level of
50%, at 31.8% (30 June 2021: 28.2%). Following the establishment of the investment partnership
gearing falls to around 20%. A new $300 million bank debt facility was secured during the period
following the maturity of the PCTHA and PCT010 notes.
Dividends attributable to shareholders for the six months ending 31 December 2021 totalled 3.35
cps representing an increase of 3.1% on the prior period (1H21: 3.25 cps). The 1H22 dividend
represents approximately 104% of Precinct’s Adjusted Funds From Operations (AFFO) for the first
half of the 2022 financial year of 3.22 cps.
Scott Pritchard, Precinct’s CEO, said “Precinct has demonstrated strong resilience in its operating
performance given the majority of the business was impacted by lockdowns during the first half
of the financial year”.

W www.precinct.co.nz PO Box 5140, Auckland 1141, New Zealand PO Box 2, Wellington 6140, New Zealand
“As we saw last year, prolonged lockdowns and various levels of restrictions have already had a
significant impact on our city centres, Auckland and Wellington. In particular, city centre based
retail and hospitality businesses have experienced severe financial impacts with business closures
for some during the period. The Omicron variant has unfortunately led to further financial pressure
on an already struggling sector, particularly in Auckland’s city centre which is being heavily
affected once again after just coming out of months in various lockdowns during 2021.
Fortunately for Precinct, due to the quality of our office portfolio and its occupiers, we are able
to offer assistance to those in our portfolio who need it”.
Establishment of new strategic investment partnership
Precinct has also today announced it has conditionally established a new strategic investment
partnership with Singapore sovereign wealth fund GIC. The partnership will initially acquire five
assets from Precinct’s existing portfolio totalling around $590 million, comprising 3 Wellington and
2 Auckland assets, with the ability to grow to around $1.0 billion. Precinct will own a minority 24.9%
interest in the partnership.
The establishment of the real estate investment partnership reflects a strategic next stage
following the internalisation of Precinct last year. Accessing third party capital supports the
advancement of Precinct’s long-term strategy, enabling Precinct to participate in a broader set
of opportunities, both on and off balance sheet. This strategic decision to establish this platform
increases Precinct’s liquidity and strengthens its balance sheet, provides diversification of capital
sources and is expected to enhance earnings to deliver further long-term value to Precinct’s
shareholders.
Scott Pritchard, Precinct’s CEO, said “Establishing a new collaborative and committed
partnership with a global investor of this scale and quality represents a strategic step forward for
our business. The partnership with GIC provides access to capital with an aligned partner and
fully supports the execution of Precinct’s future growth, further enhancing shareholder returns.
We are leveraging our well-located premium assets, experienced team and Precinct’s unique
market position. The newly established partnership will target stable, secure low risk returns
through investment in well-leased, premium grade real estate. We are very excited about this
investment opportunity and to be partnering with a globally recognised long-term strategic
partner like GIC”.
Precinct will be the investment manager of the partnership and there is a market fee
arrangement in place for the funds and property management of the assets. Proceeds from the

asset sales of the seed portfolio will initially repay bank debt and provide funding for future
growth.
The disposals to the partnership remain conditional at this stage on the completion of due
diligence, Overseas Investment Office approval and certain subdivision consents in the initial
portfolio. We continue to progress these items and will provide a further update in due course.
Portfolio performance
Active leasing achieved in the period with 13,000 sqm leased across the investment portfolio. This
has contributed to Precinct maintaining a high portfolio occupancy of 98% and a weighted
average lease term of 7.5 years at 31 December 2021. In addition, 8,000 sqm of pre-leasing has
been completed within the development portfolio.
New leases were secured 10.9% above previous contract rents. Structured rent reviews were
completed across 74,000 sqm in the first half of FY22, resulting in an average annual uplift of 2.8%
on $43.5 million of contract rent. Market reviews were secured 4.3% above previous contract
rentals across 6,400 sqm or $2.9 million of contract rent.
In both Auckland and Wellington, there remains a clear preference for quality office space as
businesses continue to focus on attracting and retaining staff in a constrained labour market.
Whilst many organisations, particularly amongst larger corporate services are having staff working
from home again due to the recent rise in Omicron cases, Precinct’s clients have indicated a
definite intention to return to the office and wanting to be back working from their premises. This
is supported by what we are seeing first-hand - strong demand for prime inner city office space
in the markets we are invested in.
Development update
Auckland
We continue to observe strong leasing demand across our development assets. In Auckland,
One Queen Street is 91% committed with just two floors of private offices remaining to be leased.
The majority of the façade has now been removed and the installation of the new façade has
just commenced achieving a key milestone for the project.
At Wynyard Quarter, the development of Stage 3 is now well underway. We have commenced
discussions with potential occupiers and expect to achieve a high level of pre-leasing prior to

W www.precinct.co.nz PO Box 5140, Auckland 1141, New Zealand PO Box 2, Wellington 6140, New Zealand
completion. The decision to proceed on an uncommitted basis reflects the strong enquiry in the
market and the lack of available space within Precinct’s investment or development portfolios.
Wellington
In Wellington, despite the ongoing challenges we have faced with the supply chain and sourcing
materials, we are pleased with the progress we have made at Bowen Campus Stage 2 with the
project remaining on programme and budget.
Settling the two Wellington acquisitions, Bowen House and Freyberg Building during the period is
a pleasing result. We are progressing both these redevelopment opportunities as we look to take
advantage of the strong market conditions in Wellington which support these projects and offer
future value accretion.
Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) progress
Our business continues to make good progress across our ESG performance. During the period,
Precinct achieved a 2021 Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark (GRESB) score of 82,
pleasingly this was well above the global average of 73. Precinct also received a public
disclosure level ‘A’ demonstrating its high level of public disclosure. In addition, Precinct also
improved its score to ‘B’ following its participation in the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). This
was higher than both the Oceania regional and global average of C and B-, respectively.
The recent establishment of a dedicated Board ESG Committee further reflects the importance
of ESG to Precinct and the long-term view we are taking in this area.
Dividend payment
Precinct shareholders will receive a second-quarter dividend of 1.675 cps. Due to Precinct’s
current tax position for the period, there are no imputation credits to attach for the quarter and
therefore no supplementary dividend to be paid (see note 2). The record date is 11 March 2022
with payment to be made on 25 March 2022.

Outlook and guidance
We are focused on the next stage in Precinct’s strategic evolution, following the internalisation of
Precinct’s management last year. Over the last six months we have actively identified value add
opportunities and we are progressing these. Establishing a third party platform and diversifying
our capital sources enables our business to grow to take advantage of future opportunities in the
market as they arise.
While the outlook for the rest of 2022 is uncertain, Precinct will continue to leverage the quality
and resilience of its portfolio and its people. Our strategy is evolving and while we remain
committed to owning a high quality portfolio of city centre assets, we recognise that through the
use of third party capital, we are able to further extend our participation in opportunities and
drive higher returns from our capital. Consistent with earlier guidance provided, the Board
expects no change to Precinct’s full year FY22 dividend of 6.70 cps to be paid, representing a
3.1% year-on-year growth in total cash dividends to shareholders. Due to the rental support that
Precinct has offered to those occupiers who need it, FY22 may see our dividend payout ratio
modestly exceed 100% of our AFFO. We believe this is the right decision due to the ‘one off’
nature of the support offered this year as well as a high degree of confidence in our AFFO profile.

Note 1
AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure that shows the organisation's underlying and recurring earnings from its
operations and is considered industry best practice for a REIT. This is determined by adjusting statutory net profit (under
IFRS) for certain non-cash and other items. AFFO has been determined based on guidelines established by the Property
Council of Australia and is intended as a supplementary measure of operating performance.
Reconciliation of net profit after tax to adjusted funds from operations (AFFO)
This additional performance measure is provided to assist shareholders in assessing their returns for the period.
Note 2
A supplementary dividend is paid to non-resident shareholders to offset the amount of non-resident withholding tax
(“NRWT”) that New Zealand companies are required to deduct from dividends paid to non-resident shareholders. A
supplementary dividend is paid to ensure equitable treatment between non-resident shareholders and resident
shareholders (whose dividends are not subject to NRWT).
There is no disadvantage to Precinct or our shareholders, and non-resident shareholders do not get a larger cash
dividend than an equivalent New Zealand resident shareholder.

Our city centre markets
Prime retail
•The Auckland city centre retail sector was, and continues to be,
impacted by the Aug-21 lockdown and the subsequent, prolonged
restricted trading conditions caused by the Delta and Omicron
outbreaks
•Notwithstanding, interest remains from multi-national retailers, most
notably in high profile sites nearest to the waterfront
Prime office (Wellington)
•Prevailing imbalance between persistent lack of stock and ongoing
demand for quality space from both corporate and Government
occupiers
•Upward pressure on office rentals underpinned by strong demand
and high economic rentals
•Flex space performance very strong with Generator’s first
Wellington site trading ahead of expectations
Prime office (Auckland)
•Sentiment remains positive with occupiers taking a long-term view
and progressing renewal and/or relocation plans despite on-going
pandemic-related restrictions
•Flight to quality continues to be a prevailing theme with diverging
vacancy and rental performance between grades and locations
•Flex space enquiries remain strong, indicating long-term demand
outweighing short-term impacts

Notes to the financial statements
For the six months ended 31 December 2021
PRECINCT PROPERTIES NEW ZEALAND LIMITED
1. Reporting entity
Precinct Properties New Zealand Limited (Precinct) is incorporated in New Zealand and is registered under the New Zealand
Companies Act 1993.
Precinct is an FMC reporting entity for the purposes of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013.
These interim financial statements are those of Precinct and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the Group).
The Group's principal activity is investment in predominantly prime CBD properties in New Zealand.
2. Basis of preparation
The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with NZ IAS 34 and IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.
The financial statements have been prepared:
• On a historical basis except for financial instruments, US private placement notes, investment and development properties which
are measured at fair value.
• Using the New Zealand Dollar functional and reporting currency.
• On a GST exclusive basis, except for receivables and payables that are stated inclusive of GST.
All financial information has been presented in millions, unless otherwise stated.
Precinct has elected to include additional comparative periods to assist users of the financial statements.
These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes included in Precinct's
Annual Report for the year ended 30 June 2021.
3. Fair value estimation
Precinct classifies its fair value measurement using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the
measurements. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:
• Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active market for identical assets or liabilities.
• Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (by price)
or indirectly (derived from prices).
• Level 3 - Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
4. Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions
In preparing Precinct’s interim financial statements, management continually make judgements, estimates and assumptions based on
experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have an impact on Precinct.
All judgements, estimates and assumptions made are believed to be reasonable based on the most current set of circumstances
available to management. Actual results may differ from the judgements, estimates and assumptions made by management.
The significant judgements, estimates and assumptions made in the preparation of these interim financial statements are in relation to:
i. Investment and development properties
ii. Deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities
iii. Cross currency interest rate swaps and USPP notes
iv. Impairment test of intangible assets and goodwill
v. Share-based payment scheme
The same accounting policies and methods of computation are followed in the interim financial statements as compared with the
most recent annual financial statements.
5. Significant events and transactions during the period

reporting period:
i. Capital Raising
Following a retail offer in July 2021 Precinct issued 19,736,842 shares at $1.52 per share. Refer to the consolidated statement of changes

9. Segment information
a) Basis for segmentation
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker.
The chief operating decision-maker has been identified as the Board of Directors.
The Group has the following reportable segments that are managed separately because of different operating strategies. The
following describes the operation of each of the reportable segments.
Reportable segment
Operations
Investment propertiesInvestment in predominately prime CBD properties
Flexible spaceOperation of co-working and shared space
HospitalityOperating of hospitality venues

PRECINCT PROPERTIES NEW ZEALAND LIMITED
b) Information about reportable segments
Information related to each reportable segment is set out below. Segment profit/(loss) before tax is used to measure performance
because management believes that this information is the most relevant in evaluating the results of the respective segments relative to
other entities that operate in the same industries.
There are varying levels of integration between the investment properties and co-working segments. This integration includes occupied
space, future leasing and events. Inter segment pricing is determined on an arm's length basis.

11. Reconciliation of net profit after tax to adjusted funds from operations (AFFO)
AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure that shows the organisation's underlying and recurring earnings from its operations and is
considered industry best practice for a real estate investment entity. This is determined by adjusting net profit determined under IFRS for
certain non-cash and other items. AFFO has been determined based on guidelines established by the Property Council of Australia
and is intended as a supplementary measure of operating performance.

Notes to the financial statements (Continued)
For the six months ended 31 December 2021
PRECINCT PROPERTIES NEW ZEALAND LIMITED
Accounting policy - interest bearing liabilities
Bank loans and the NZ senior secured bonds are recognised initially at fair value less any attributable transaction costs. Subsequent
to initial recognition, these liabilities are stated at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The US private placement is
recognised at fair value including translation to NZD with any gains or losses recognised in the profit or loss as they arise. This fair
value is determined using swap models and present value techniques with observable inputs such as interest rate and cross-
currency curves. This measurement falls into level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The convertible note embedded financial derivative is recognised at fair value with any gains or losses recognised in the profit or
loss as they arise. This fair value is determined using the black-scholes model with observable inputs such as Precinct's share price
and it's historic standard deviation, the convertible note strike price and the risk free rate. The movement in fair value attributable to
changes in Precinct's own credit risk is calculated by determining the changes in credit spreads above observable market interest
rates and is recognised in other comprehensive income. This measurement falls into level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset are capitalised as part of the
cost of that asset.

Accounting policy - derivative financial instruments
Precinct uses derivative financial instruments (interest rate and cross currency swaps) to manage its exposure to interest rate and
foreign exchange risks arising from operational, financing and investment activities. Derivative financial instruments are recognised
initially at fair value and subsequently re-measured and carried at fair value. They are carried as assets when the fair value is
positive and liabilities when the fair value is negative. The gain or loss on re-measurement to fair value is recognised directly in profit
or loss.
The fair value is the estimated amount that Precinct would receive or pay to terminate the swap at the balance date, taking into
account current rates and creditworthiness of the swap counterparties. This is determined using swap models and present value
techniques with observable inputs such as interest rate and cross-currency curves. The fair value of derivatives fall into level 2 of the
fair value hierarchy.

PRECINCT PROPERTIES NEW ZEALAND LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REVIEW REPORT TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF PRECINCT PROPERTIES NEW ZEALAND LIMITED
Conclusion
We have reviewed the interim financial statements of Precinct Properties New Zealand Limited ("the Company") and its subsidiaries
(together "the Group") on pages 03 to 15, which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 December 2021
and the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement
of cash flows for the period ended on that date, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim financial statements
of the Group do not present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as at 31 December 2021, and its financial
performance and its cash flows for the period ended on that date, in accordance with New Zealand Equivalent to International
Accounting Standard 34:
Interim Financial Reporting
.
Basis for Conclusion
We conducted our review in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 (Revised)
Review of Financial Statements Performed by the Independent
Auditor of the Entity
. Our responsibilities are further described in the
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Review of the Financial Statements
section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements in New Zealand relating
to the audit of the annual financial statements, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these ethical
requirements.
Ernst & Young provides other assurance services to the Group. Ernst & Young and the Group have entered an agreement in respect of
our future occupancy of a Group property. Partners and employees of our firm may deal with the Group on normal terms within the
ordinary course of trading activities of the business of the Group. We have no other relationship with, or interest in, the Group.
Directors' Responsibilities for the Interim Financial Statements
The Directors of the Company are responsible, on behalf of the Company, for the preparation and fair presentation of the interim
financial statements in accordance with New Zealand Equivalent to International Accounting Standard 34:
Interim Financial Reporting
and for such internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation and fair presentation of the interim
financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Review of the Interim Financial Statements
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the interim financial statements based on our review. NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) requires us to
conclude whether anything has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim financial statements, taken as a
whole, are not prepared in all material respects, in accordance with New Zealand Equivalent to International Accounting Standard 34:
Interim Financial Reporting
.
A review of interim financial statements in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) is a limited assurance engagement. We perform
procedures, consisting of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying
analytical and other review procedures. The procedures performed in a review are substantially less than those performed in an audit
conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand) and consequently do not enable us to obtain
assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express
an audit opinion on those interim financial statements.
The engagement partner on the review resulting in this independent auditor’s review report is Emma Winsloe.
