Argosy Property Limited (‘Argosy’ or the ‘Company’) has reported its results for the 12

months to 31 March 2022.

Key highlights for the period include:

• Net profit after tax of $236.2 million;

• $163.7 million annual revaluation gain, an increase of 8% on book value;

• Increase in NTA per share to $1.74 from $1.53 at 31 March 2021, a 13.7% increase;

• Net property income for the period of $105.1 million;

• High occupancy (~98.7%) and WALT (5.7 years);

• Strong portfolio leasing and rent review outcomes, including 3% annualised rental

growth on rents reviewed;

• 7WQ in Wellington is now 100% leased;

• Our continued focus on sustainability and progressive green developments with 8-14

Willis Street now substantially complete and 105 Carlton Gore Road, and 12-20 Bell Ave

underway;

• A full year dividend of 6.55 cents per share, a 1.6% increase over FY21; and

• FY23 dividend guidance of 6.65 cents per share, a 1.5% increase on the prior year;

Chairman Jeff Morrison said, “the Board is very pleased with the way the business has

delivered through yet another Covid-19 impacted year. This has laid a strong foundation for

FY23 and beyond. The business continues to demonstrate the resilience offered by a

portfolio diversified by sector, tenant and location.


.2

Over the last 24 months the company’s exposure to the Auckland Industrial sector has been

a positive influence, underpinning the Company’s ability to deliver dividend and

revaluation growth through difficult economic conditions.

The Company’s focus is on driving our sustainability strategy by providing environmentally

sensitive, high quality, vibrant spaces for its tenants and their staff. We’ll continue building

and maintaining strong relationships with those tenants and other stakeholders to drive

sustainable returns for shareholders. The recent completion of large office and mixed use

refurbishment projects in Wellington is a good example of this.

Argosy is able to effectively redevelop existing buildings into green buildings to help the

reduction of its carbon footprint. Argosy has a significant pipeline of green opportunities

ahead of it, particularly in Auckland’s Industrial market.

The business is well positioned to deliver sustainable returns despite the headwinds of higher

inflation, rising interest rates and geopolitical volatility. Based on current projections for the

portfolio and subject to market and interest rate conditions, the FY23 dividend is expected

to be 6.65 cents per share, a 1.5% increase on the prior year.”

Argosy’s Chief Executive Officer, Peter Mence said, “After another challenging year

affected by lockdowns and restrictions, its pleasing to have delivered what we consider to

be a very solid full year result to shareholders.

We delivered on our operational focus areas around vacancies, key expiries and

developments. We also divested our non Core asset at 25 Nugent Street at a healthy

premium to book value. Our core portfolio metrics have remained sound despite the

operational environment being so difficult for everyone.

8-14 Willis Street is now substantially complete and has been handed over to Statistics New

Zealand for fitout. The handover sees Argosy complete the largest green development

project in its history. We are targeting a 6 Green Star rating for this high quality Core asset.

The Wellington office market continues to exhibit strong fundamentals and our ongoing

exposure to Government rental streams provides resilience during uncertain times.

Master planning at Argosy’s two key Auckland industrial estates at Mt Richmond Road and

Neilson Street is well progressed and we are fielding strong market enquiry for these sites,

which will be redeveloped into green industrial estates. We’re excited about the potential

these sustainably focused properties bring to the portfolio and the cross section of new

industrial tenants showing interest. Strong industrial fundamentals means this sector is

forecast to be the best performer over the next five years.



.3

We are focusing on our organic Value Add development pipeline due to scarcity of land

driving very high bare land pricing. Given the pipeline of work ahead, we’ve resourced our

development team accordingly.

With the economy facing a range of headwinds, the next 12 months will be challenging for

the domestic economy, but the business is well positioned for it.

We will continue to work hard on the things we can control. On the operational side, this is

leasing up vacancies and renewing expiring leases. On the strategic side, we’ll keep

working closely with our tenants and supporting their growth aspirations, completing our

existing green projects and master planning and developing our Value Add opportunities.

All of these support the delivery of our strategic plan and sustainable distributions to

shareholders.”

Financial Results

Statement of Comprehensive Income

For the 12 months to 31 March, Argosy reported net property income of $105.1 million for the

period, marginally down compared with the prior comparable period.

Net property income was bolstered by steady rental growth, a full year contribution from Mt

Richmond and lower Covid-19 rent rebates over the period, offset by disposals, particularly

the Albany Lifestyle Centre.

For the year to 31 March, Argosy provided $1.6 million in rental abatements to tenants and

no deferrals.

Net interest expense of $25.6 million was down by $2.9 million on the prior comparable

period, primarily due to higher capitalised interest on developments and lower debt levels.

Annual valuations for the year to 31 March were performed by CBRE Limited, Colliers

International New Zealand Limited, Bayleys Valuation Limited and Jones Lang Lasalle. The

total unrealised revaluation gain for the year to 31 March was $163.7 million or an 8%

increase above book value. Of the annual gain 56% was recognised in the interim desktop

valuation assessments at 30 September 2021. The portfolio is 3.3% under-rented, excluding

market rent on vacant space.

Distributable Income

Net distributable income for the year was $64.7 million compared to $67.7 million in the prior

comparable period. The prior comparable period included a forfeited deposit of $4.5 million

from the original sale of the Albany Lifestyle Centre, which was not settled.



.4

Valuations

By location, Auckland was the largest contributor to the total year end valuation result with

an unrealised revaluation increase of $142.1 million or 87% of the total portfolio uplift. By

sector, and at 51% of Argosy’s portfolio by value Industrial was the key driver of the overall

gain at $144.7 million, up 14.7% on book value. The Office portfolio increased $9.1 million,

and Large Format Retail increased by $9.8 million.

As a result of the FY22 revaluation gain, Argosy’s NTA increased to $1.74, or 13.7% from $1.53

at 31 March 2021. Following the revaluation, Argosy’s portfolio shows a contract yield on

values of 5.23% and a yield on fully let market rentals of 5.43%.

Portfolio Activity

Portfolio Metrics, Rent Reviews and Leasing

As at 31 March, Argosy’s WALT was 5.7 years and portfolio occupancy was 98.7%.

For the year to 31 March, Argosy completed 99 rent reviews achieving annualised rental

growth of 3.0%. These reviews were achieved on rents totalling $60.1 million. On rents subject

to review by sector, Argosy achieved annualised rental growth of 2.8% for Industrial rent

reviews, 3.2% for Office rent reviews and 3.2% for Large Format Retail rent reviews.

Peter Mence said “The second half of the year was challenging as we operated under red

traffic light settings. However, we were very pleased to have delivered solid results around

key operating metrics of occupancy, rental growth and leasing.”

For the year to 31 March, 76% of rents reviewed were subject to fixed reviews, 8% were

market reviews and 16% were CPI based. Fixed reviews accounted for 72% of the total

annualised rental uplift and Auckland and Wellington contributed 76% and 19% of the total

annualised rental uplift respectively.

Argosy completed 31 leasing transactions across 74,376m

2

of NLA over the year to 31

March. Lease transactions were made up of new leases (23), extensions (3), renewals (5).

Key leasing highlights over the financial year include;

• Thermo Fisher Scientific NZ Limited, 5 Allens Road, East Tamaki, 6yr renewal

• Commercial Fisheries Services Limited, Level 12 at 7WQ, new 9yr lease

• Mobil Oil NZ Limited, 8 Nugent Street, 3yr extension

• Macpac Limited, Albany Mega Centre, new 6yr lease

• Ministry of Housing and Urban Development, 7WQ, new 7yr lease

• The Baby Factory, Albany Mega Centre, new 6yr lease

• PBT Transport, 18-20 Bell Ave, new 10yr lease

• PBT Transport, 12-16 Bell Ave, new 10yr lease

• Tax Management New Zealand Limited, 23 Customs Street, new 5yr lease


.5

”It is very pleasing to have 7WQ now 100% leased, with 94% of space occupied by

government tenants. Coupled with the substantially completed façade works, the building

is now well positioned to deliver resilient, long term income given its weighting to highly

defensive Government rental streams.

The Auckland Industrial sector continues to be very attractive with strong bottom-up

fundamentals, including low vacancy and strong rental growth. It’s a resilient sector and has

the best forecast returns over the next five years. With half of Argosy’s portfolio weighted to

Industrial, the pipeline of green Value-Add development industrial sites will enhance our

portfolio quality and resilience over the longer term” said Peter Mence.

Acquisitions

After Balance Date, Argosy acquired 100 Maui Street (Maui Street), located in Pukete,

Hamilton for $33.1 million. Maui Street has excellent connectivity to motorway arterials and

State Highway One. Peter Mence said “By location, the property is consistent with our

strategy and enhances our exposure to the attractive Industrial sector. Prolife Foods are a

well-established local food manufacturer. They are a high quality partner and an essential

service, which aligns with our strategy of being a diversified business with resilient earnings

and cashflows. There is also 8,100m

2

of vacant land for development in the future which

provides additional attraction to this acquisition. We’re pleased to welcome Prolife Foods

into the Argosy family.”

The purchase price was the mid-point of a Colliers International initial valuation range and

gives an IRR of 6.7% and an initial yield of 4.5%.

The acquisition sees Argosy with a portfolio weighting to the Golden Triangle of 1.5% versus

our 5% target and increases our overall Industrial exposure to 52%. The acquisition

environment remains strong despite rising interest rates. As highlighted above, Argosy

remains open to strategic acquisitions that meet its investment criteria, preferably industrial

sites within a prime industrial precinct with the capacity to support tenant growth

aspirations.

Divestment of non Core Assets

Argosy sold the Albany Lifestyle Centre in April 2021 and Omahu Road, Hastings in

September 2021. In the second half of FY22, the Company announced it had

unconditionally sold 25 Nugent Street in Auckland, for $22.0 million. The sale to a local

investor, reflected a 28% premium above book value and settlement is expected to occur

in September 2022. These sales reflect the back end of Argosy’s capital management

initiatives over the last 24 months, where assets no longer meet Argosy’s investment criteria.



.6

Investment Policy Bands

The Board made a strategic decision to adjust Argosy’s Investment Policy target bands to

increase the portfolios weighting towards the strongly performing Industrial sector.

Accordingly, by portfolio value, the Industrial target is now 55-65% (was 45-55%), Office is

now 25-35% (was 30-40%) and the Large Format Retail target is now 5-15% (was 10-20%).

Peter Mence said “We have done a lot of work assessing the organic Value Add

opportunities within the portfolio coupled with analysis of forecast sector returns. Auckland

Industrial is forecast to be the best performing sector over the medium term and by

delivering on our current pipeline of Value Add opportunities, we expect to be within our

new target bands over the medium term. We’re excited about what the future holds for

Argosy and the development team are going to be extremely busy delivering a pipeline of

well-designed, vibrant and sustainable spaces for tenants and their staff to work and

flourish.”

Developments

8-14 Willis Street and 360 Lambton Quay, Wellington

The development at 8-14 Willis Street is now substantially complete with the building to be

formally handed over to Statistics New Zealand. The tenant has access to nine floors and

soft fit out is being undertaken by the tenant as well as audio visual installation works. The

building is targeting a 6 Green Star Built rating.

Leasing on the office space at 360 Lambton Quay continues and there is strong interest for

the space. Management is progressing documentation of a lease on the property.

The retail area in both buildings is now fully leased.

7 Waterloo Quay, Wellington (7WQ) – leasing and façade works

The building is now 100% leased and the façade works have largely been completed.

12-16 & 18-20 Bell Ave, Mt Wellington, Peter Baker Transport Limited (PBT)

This $8.8 million redevelopment targeting 4 Green Star continues to progress well. PBT has

entered into a new 10 year lease with two rights of renewal of six years. On completion, the

project is forecast to have a yield on development cost of 5.2% and IRR of 8.3%. The

forecast valuation on completion is expected to be $69 million.

Argosy Chief Executive Officer Peter Mence said ”This type of project really embodies our

vision of building a better future for our tenants, their staff, the environment and of course

our stakeholders. Argosy has built a market leading position over the last decade in

redeveloping existing buildings into green assets, and we have more of these industrial

opportunities in the pipeline.


.7

Extending PBT’s lease at the location for ten years was fundamental to the project and

exemplifies the benefits of having valuable relationships with our tenants to support their

long-term strategic growth aspirations.

The development is clearly on strategy and demonstrates that tenants are increasingly

collaborative around environmental & sustainability issues and keen to support our

commitment to reduce carbon emissions. The recent expansion of our development team

enhances our capability to deliver on the growing development pipeline across the

business.”

The development is expected to be completed by September 2022.

105 Carlton Gore Road, Newmarket

Argosy has commenced another capital project with this $35 million green redevelopment

with an expected completion date in May 2023. The building is now targeting 6 Green Star

certification (previously 5 Star) and is forecast to be valued at $65 million on completion,

generating an IRR of 7.2% and a yield on cost of 5.3%. Leasing enquiry for the redeveloped

building is strong, and it is expected that it will be leased prior to completion.

“The green redevelopment at 105 Carlton Gore Road will certainly offer something different,

bringing a fresh and vibrant look to the area” said Peter Mence.

Capital Management

As at 31 March, Argosy’s debt to total assets ratio, excluding capitalised borrowing costs,

was 31.1% compared to 35.9% at 31 March 2021. The ratio continues to reflect the net

impact of divestments and revaluation gains, offset by development activity during the

period

1

.

Argosy’s year end gearing sits towards the bottom end of its target gearing band of 30-40%,

and well below its bank covenant of 50%. The Board considers there is sufficient capacity to

accommodate known, medium term funding requirements.

As noted in the first half of the year, Argosy extended $215 million of its existing syndicated

bank facilities with ANZ Bank of New Zealand Limited, Bank of New Zealand Limited,

Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation, Commonwealth Bank of Australia and

Westpac New Zealand Limited. The total amount of the bank facilities has reduced by $35

million and is now $455 million, down from $490 million previously.


1

The ratio excludes the right of use asset at 39 Market Place of $40.2 million, recorded in the period under NZ IFRS 16.


.8

Argosy’s weighted average debt tenor, including bonds, was 3.5 years (4.2 years at 31

March 2021) and its weighted average interest rate was 4.14%, compared to 3.69% at 31

March 2021.

Strategy and Governance

“Argosy’s future will be driven by maintaining our leading market position of redeveloping

existing buildings into green and driving growth into the attractive Auckland Industrial

sector, especially over the medium term. We’ll continue to develop strong relationships with

the Government sector. Our FY23 key deliverables will be focused on completing existing

developments, commencing our new green projects, leasing new developments and

residual portfolio vacancies and addressing key expiries. Our big strategic goals coupled

with our current year objectives, support the delivery of resilient and sustainable dividend

growth over the long term” said Jeff Morrison.

Argosy’s Annual Shareholders Meeting (ASM) will be held as a hybrid meeting on 21 June at

2pm at the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron in Auckland. The hybrid functionality of the

ASM allows shareholders to attend virtually and participate in all elements of the meeting

including questions and answers and completing all voting.

Mike Pohio and Chris Gudgeon will retire in accordance with the Company’s constitution

and the NZX Listing Rules and will be eligible for re-election.

Dividends and Outlook

A fourth quarter dividend of 1.6375 cents per share has been declared for the March

quarter with 0.1276 cents per share imputation credits attached. This brings the full year

dividend to 6.55 cents per share in line with guidance. The dividend will be paid to

shareholders on 22 June 2022 and the record date will be 8 June 2022. The Dividend

Reinvestment Plan has been suspended by the Board until further notice.

Jeff Morrison said “We remain very focused on delivering measured dividend growth to

shareholders. Based on current projections for the portfolio and subject to market conditions

(including interest rate increases), the forecast FY23 dividend guidance is 6.65 cents per

share, a 1.5% increase on the prior year.”

Argosy starts FY23 with a portfolio in good shape and the business with a very sound capital

position with strong foundations for this year and beyond. The company remains driven to

ensure it remains a sustainably focused (green), resilient and diversified business that delivers

measured sustainable dividend growth to shareholders.

Acquisition income offset by disposals of low growth assets

Financial Performance
.21

Net property income was bolstered by

steady rental growth, a full year

contribution from Mt Richmond, lower

Covid-19 rent rebates over the period,

offset by disposals, particularly the Albany

Lifestyle Centre.

Rental rebates of $1.6m were provided

for over the period, with no deferrals.

Interest expense was lower primarily due

to higher capitalisedinterest and lower

overall debt levels.

The solid revaluation gain was driven by a

combination of cap rate firming and

rental growth.

Market Insights
.34

Strong demand continues to drive

additional supply.

Limited land supply in Auckland and

Wellington puts pressure on land values,

rentals and encourages non-traditional

locations.

Return of domestic manufacturing as a

result of the supply chain issues and

carbon footprint of distribution from

offshore

Rental growth continues.

Vacancy remains very low, with limited

speculative supply.

Covid-19 pandemic and supply chain

constraints have seen average size

demand increase.

INDUSTRIAL

Flexible working environments continue.

Changes in the way space is used,

focusing on the environment, becoming

a reason to be in the office.

Increased focus from tenants on

sustainability/green as an appeal to

younger staff.

Impact of Covid-19 has resulted in a

significant increase in space available

for sub-lease in A grade and prime

buildings in the Auckland market

Auckland rental growth impacted by

sublease vacancy and new supply.

Wellington continues to see solid

demand, with low vacancy for good

quality, well located space.

OFFICE

Many retailers’ systems have been shown

to be inadequate to cope with higher

online sales volumes.

Structural change in retail property will

show increased focus on showroom and

semi-industrial facilities.

Impact of additional development will

be felt, particularly in secondary

locations.

Large format retail expected to be most

secure.

Focus &
Outlook

.35

FY23 has challenges ahead, but we’re well placed
.36

Local and global economy experiencing rising interest rates (tightening) and inflation headwinds. This is creating construction cost tension

together with ongoing global supply chain pressure.

Globally, many countries are accelerating their re-opening and New Zealand has started to follow.

Geopolitically there are challenges, particularly in Europe, which is adding to global economic and market volatility.

Key focus areas for FY23 are simple: delivering strong operational results, addressing key expiries, leasing up remaining vacancies, completion

of key green developments and commencing new ones as planned.

Master planning across key green Value Add developments at Mt Richmond and Neilson Street continues and there is healthy market interest.

Attractive property fundamentals in key markets (Auckland industrial and Wellington office) continue to present attractive dynamics of low

supply, high demand and steady rental growth.

Structural changes in the way property is used will provide opportunities and challenges. We are keeping a watching brief.

We will stay focused on delivering on Strategy

Building a
better future

Annual Report 2022

We are focused on three things.
Our ability to deliver vibrant

commercial spaces that reflect

the strength of our relationships

and the future needs of our

tenants. Our determination to

achieve the lowest impact possible

on the environment. And our

commitment to do everything we

can to deliver sustainable earnings

for our stakeholders.

Auckland continues to dominate

our plans. We’re increasing

our presence in the industrial

sector, progressing master

planning at our Mt Richmond

and Neilson Street development

sites and maintaining our presence

in the Government sector.

At the same time, we continue

to lead the market in repurposing

existing buildings to make them

greener and better for tenants

and their people.

We have progressed in many

areas – from developments on

our Value Add properties to leasing

residual vacancies and addressing

key expiries – ensuring we leave

no stone unturned in doing right

by our investors.

Building a better future is never

about one thing. For us, it’s

absolutely about doing everything

we can to improve on today

for our tenants, our people, our

“The board is very pleased with the way the

management team has managed the business through

yet another covid impacted year This has laid a strong

foundation for 2023 and beyond. The FY23 dividend

guidance of 6.65 cents per share reflects our

Annual Report 2022Argosy Property Limited

On behalf of the Board of Directors, it

is my pleasure to present Argosy’s

2022 Annual Report.

The business continues to demonstrate the resilience offered by

a portfolio diversified by tenant and location. Over the last 24

months the company’s exposure to the Government sector

through the Wellington office market has been a stabilising

influence, underpinning the company’s ability to deliver earnings

and dividend growth through difficult economic conditions.

The company’s focus is on positioning the portfolio for the future

by providing environmentally sensitive quality, vibrant spaces for

its tenants and their staff. We’ll continue building and maintaining

strong relationships with those tenants and other stakeholders to

drive sustainable returns for shareholders. The recent completion

of larger office and mixed use refurbishment projects particularly

in Wellington is a good example.

Argosy’s policy is to bring a light touch to the environment, and

it is in the enviable position of being able to use the repurposing

of existing buildings into green buildings to help the reduction of

its carbon footprint. Argosy has a significant pipeline of

opportunities ahead of it, particularly in Auckland’s industrial

market.

Strategy

Looking ahead, the FY23 year looks to continue to bring

challenges, some old and some new as we look to a world re-

opening with high inflation, rising interest rates and geopolitical

volatility and the ongoing overhang of the pandemic. However,

the business is well positioned to withstand these headwinds.

Governance

Argosy’s Annual Shareholders Meeting (ASM) will be held in

June as a hybrid meeting on 21 June at 2pm at the Royal New

Zealand Yacht Squadron in Auckland. The hybrid functionality of

ASM’s allows shareholders to attend virtually and participate in

all elements of the meeting including questions and answers and

completing all voting.

Mike Pohio and Chris Gudgeon will retire in accordance with the

Company’s constitution and the NZX Listing Rules and will be

eligible for re-election.

Dividends

A fourth quarter dividend of 1.6375 cents per share has been

declared for the March quarter with imputation credits of 0.0xxx

cents per share attached. The dividend will be paid to

shareholders on xx June 2022 and the record date will be xx June

2022. The Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRP) will be available

for shareholders to participate in but no discount will apply.

Based on current projections for the portfolio and subject to

market conditions, the forecast FY23 dividend has been

confirmed at 6.65 cents per share.

Outlook

Argosy starts FY23 with a portfolio in good shape and the business

with a very sound capital position. It has strong foundations for

this year and beyond. There is financial capacity to fund near term

developments and any strategic opportunities that might arise.

But there are challenges ahead. There has been structural changes

in some sectors which present opportunities and will drive our

long term portfolio composition. New Zealand is in a rising

interest rate environment coupled with high inflation and

weaking business and consumer confidence. We will have to

ensure we can execute on delivering key operational areas

including leasing up residual vacancies, addressing key expiries

and commencing and completing our organic development

opportunities as planned.

Ultimately, the company remains driven to ensure it remains a

sustainably focused (green), resilient and diversified business

that delivers sustainable dividends to shareholders.

Annual Report 2022Argosy Property Limited

On behalf of the Board of Directors, it
is my pleasure to present Argosy’s

2022 Annual Report.

The business continues to demonstrate the resilience offered by

a portfolio diversified by sector, tenant and location.

Over the last 24 months the company’s exposure to the Auckland

Industrial sector has been a positive influence, underpinning the

Company’s ability to deliver dividend and revaluation growth

through difficult economic conditions.

The Company’s focus is on driving our sustainability strategy by

providing environmentally sensitive, high quality, vibrant spaces

for its tenants and their staff. We’ll continue building and

maintaining strong relationships with those tenants and other

stakeholders to drive sustainable returns for shareholders. The

recent completion of large office and mixed use refurbishment

projects in Wellington is a good example of this.

Argosy is able to effectively redevelop existing buildings into

green buildings to help the reduction of its carbon footprint.

Argosy has a significant pipeline of green opportunities ahead of

it, particularly in Auckland’s Industrial market.

Investment Policy Bands

The Board made a strategic decision to adjust Argosy’s

Investment Policy target bands to increase the portfolios

weighting towards the strongly performing Industrial sector.

Accordingly, by portfolio value, the Industrial target is now

55-65% (was 45-55%), Office is now 25-35% (was 30-40%) and

the Large Format Retail target is now 5-15% (was 10-20%).

Strategy

Argosy is progressing well with its strategic plan. A key driver is

the redevelopment of existing properties into modern, high

quality and sustainable buildings. We are steadily expanding and

improving the portfolio with spaces designed to meet tenants

evolving requirements. Over the long term, this will underpin the

sustainability and growth in earnings to shareholders.

Governance

Ar

gosy’s Annual Shareholders Meeting (ASM) will be held as a

hybrid meeting on 21 June at 2pm at the Royal New Zealand Yacht

Squadron in Auckland. The hybrid functionality of the ASM

allows shareholders to attend virtually and participate in all

elements of the meeting including questions and answers and

completing all voting.

Mike Pohio and Chris Gudgeon will retire in accordance with the

Company’s constitution and the NZX Listing Rules and will be

eligible for re-election.

Dividends

A fourth quarter dividend of 1.6375 cents per share has been

declared for the March quarter with 0.1276 cents per share

imputation credits attached. This brings the full year dividend to

6.55 cents per share in line with guidance. The dividend will be

paid to shareholders on 22 June 2022 and the record date will be

8 June 2022. The Dividend Reinvestment Plan has been

suspended by the Board until further notice.

Based on current projections for the portfolio and subject to

market and interest rate conditions, the FY23 dividend is

expected to be 6.65 cents per share.

Outlook

Argosy’s future will be driven by maintaining our leading market

position of redeveloping existing buildings into green and driving

growth into the attractive Auckland Industrial sector, especially

over the medium term. We’ll continue to develop strong

relationships with the Government sector. Our FY23 key

deliverables will be focused on completing existing

developments, commencing our new green projects, leasing new

developments and residual portfolio vacancies and addressing

key expiries. Our big strategic goals coupled with our current year

objectives, support the delivery of resilient and sustainable

dividend growth over the long term.

Annual Report 2022Argosy Property Limited

We delivered on our operational focus areas around vacancies,
k

ey expiries and developments. We also divested our non Core

asset at 25 Nugent Street at a healthy premium to book value. Our

core portfolio metrics have remained sound despite the

operational environment being so difficult for everyone.

8-14 Willis Street is now substantially complete and has been

handed over to Statistics New Zealand for fitout. The handover

sees Argosy complete the largest green development project in its

history. We are targeting a 6 Green Star rating for this high quality

Core asset. The Wellington office market continues to exhibit

strong fundamentals and our ongoing exposure to Government

rental streams provides resilience during uncertain times.

Master planning at Argosy’s two key Auckland industrial estates

at Mt Richmond Road and Neilson Street is well progressed and

we are fielding strong market enquiry for these sites, which will

be redeveloped into green industrial estates. We’re excited about

the potential these sustainably focused properties bring to the

portfolio and the cross section of new industrial tenants showing

interest. Strong industrial fundamentals means this sector is

forecast to be the best performer over the next five years.

We are focusing on our organic Value Add development pipeline

due to scarcity of land driving very high bare land pricing. Given

the pipeline of work ahead, we’ve resourced our development

team accordingly.

Highlights

Key highlights for the period include:


Net profit after tax of $236.2 million;


$163.7 million annual revaluation gain, an increase of 8% on

book value;


Increase in NTA per share to $1.74 from $1.53 at 31 March 2021,

a 13.7% increase;


Net property income for the period of $105.1 million;


High occupancy (~98.7%) and WALT (5.7 years);


Strong portfolio leasing and rent review outcomes, including

3% annualised rental growth on rents reviewed;


7WQ in Wellington is now 100% leased;


Our continued focus on sustainability and progressive green

developments with 8-14 Willis Street now substantially

complete and 105 Carlton Gore Road, and 12-20 Bell Ave

underway;


A full year dividend of 6.55 cents per share, a 1.6% increase over

FY21; and


FY23 dividend guidance of 6.65 cents per share, a 1.5% increase

on the prior year.

Financial Results

Statement of Comprehensive Income

For the 12 months to 31 March, Argosy reported net property

income of $105.1 million for the period, marginally down

compared with the prior comparable period.

Net property income was bolstered by steady rental growth, a full

year contribution from Mt Richmond and lower Covid-19 rent

rebates over the period, offset by disposals, particularly the

Albany Lifestyle Centre.

For the year to 31 March, Argosy provided $1.6 million in rental

abatements to tenants and no deferrals.

Net inter

est expense of $25.6 million was down by $2.9 million on

the prior comparable period, primarily due to higher capitalised

interest on developments and lower debt levels.

Annual valuations for the year to 31 March were performed by

CBRE Limited, Colliers International New Zealand Limited,

Bayleys Valuation Limited and Jones Lang Lasalle. The total

unrealised revaluation gain for the year to 31 March was

$163.7 million or an 8% increase above book value. Of the annual

gain 56% was recognised in the interim desktop valuation

assessments at 30 September 2021. The portfolio is 3.3% under-

rented, excluding market rent on vacant space.

Distributable Income

Net distributable income for the year was $64.7 million compared

to $67.7 million in the prior comparable period. The prior

comparable period included a forfeited deposit of $4.5 million

from the original sale of the Albany Lifestyle Centre, which was

not settled.

Valuations

By location, Auckland was the largest contributor to the total year

end valuation result with an unrealised revaluation increase of

$142.1 million or 87% of the total portfolio uplift. By sector, and at

51% of Argosy’s portfolio by value Industrial was the key driver of

the overall gain at $144.7 million, up 14.7% on book value. The

Office portfolio increased $9.1 million, and Large Format Retail

increased by $9.8 million.

As a result of the FY22 revaluation gain, Argosy’s NTA increased

to $1.74, or 13.7% from $1.53 at 31 March 2021. Following the

revaluation, Argosy’s portfolio shows a contract yield on values of

5.23% and a yield on fully let market rentals of 5.43%.

Outlook

With the economy facing a range of headwinds, the next 12

months will be challenging for the domestic economy, but the

business is well positioned for it. We will continue to work hard

on the things we can control. On the operational side, this is

leasing up vacancies and renewing expiring leases. On the

strategic side, we’ll keep working closely with our tenants and

supporting their growth aspirations, completing our existing

green projects and master planning and developing our Value Add

opportunities. All of these support the delivery of our strategic

plan and sustainable distributions to shareholders.

We look forward to updating all our stakeholders at our Annual

Meeting in June.

Annual Report 2022Argosy Property Limited

We delivered on all of our operational focus areas around

vacancies, key expiries and completing developments. We also

divested non-core buildings during the year at healthy premiums

to book value. Our core portfolio metrics have remained sound

despite the operational environment being so difficult for

everyone.

8-14 Willis Street has now been handed over to Statistics New

Zealand. At a total cost o

f $xm, the handover sees Argosy complete

its largest green development project in its history. If we achieve

our target 6 Green Stars the building will certainly be the jewel in

our crown. The Wellington office market continues to exhibit

strong fundamentals which we don’t see waning for some time.

Our ongoing exposure to Government rental streams provides a

high degree of certainty and stability during uncertain times.

Master planning at Argosy’s two key Auckland industrial estates

at Mt Richmond Road and Neilson Street are progressing and we

are fielding a lot of market inquiry for these sites which will be

repurposed into green industrial estates. We’re excited about the

potential these sustainably focused properties bring to the

portfolio and the cross section of new industrial tenants showing

interest. We think strong industrial fundamentals and the fact the

sector is forecast to be the best performer over the next five years

is underpinning occupier interest.

The balance of the portfolio is in excellent shape. Argosy’s capital

structure is sound and we have capacity to execute on

opportunities as they arise. However, with interest rates rising it

we are focusing more on our organic value add development

pipeline. Given the pipeline of work we see ahead, we’ve

resourced the business and development team up accordingly.

Highlights

Key highlights for the period include:


Continued focus on sustainability and green developments;


Record interim net profit after tax of $xx.0 million;


Net property income for the period up xx%;


High occupancy (~9x%) and WALT (5.x years);

Statement of Comprehensive Income

For the 12 months to 31 March, Argosy reported net property

income of $xx million for the period, up x% compared with the

prior comparable period.

For the year to 31 March, Argosy provided for $x million in rental

abatements to tenants and no deferrals.

Net interest expense of $xx million was up/down by $xx million

on the prior comparable period, primarily due to xxx [lower

overall debt levels and higher capitalised interest].

Annual valuations for the year to 31 March were performed by

CBRE, Colliers International New Zealand Limited, Bayleys and

Jones Lang Lasalle. The total unrealised revaluation gain for the

year to 31 March was $xx million or a xx% increase above book

of the overall gain at $x million, up x% on book value. The Office

portfolio increased $x million, and Large Format Retail increased

by $x million.

As a result of the FY22 revaluation gain, Argosy’s NTA increased

to $1.xx, or xx% from $1.64 at 31 March 2021. Following the

Outlook

With the economy facing a range of headwinds, the next 6-12

months will be challenging for the domestic economy, but we’re

ready for it. We’ll continue to work hard on the things we can

control. On the operational side this is leasing up vacancies and

renewing expiring leases. On the strategic side, we’ll keep

Portfolio Overview
Portfolio Metrics, Rent Reviews and Leasing

As at 31 March, Argosy’s WALT was

5.7 years and portfolio occupancy

was 98.7%.

For the year to 31 March, Argosy completed 99 rent reviews

achieving annualised rental growth of 3.0%. These reviews were

achieved on rents totalling $60.1 million. On rents subject to

review by sector, Argosy achieved annualised rental growth of

2.8% for Industrial rent reviews, 3.2% for Office rent reviews and

3.2% for Large Format Retail rent reviews.

Peter Mence said “The second half of the year was challenging as

we operated under red traffic light settings. However, we were

very pleased to have delivered solid results around key operating

metrics of occupancy, rental growth and leasing.”

For the year to 31 March, 76% of rents reviewed were subject to

fixed reviews, 8% were market reviews and 16% were CPI based.

Fixed reviews accounted for 72% of the total annualised rental

uplift and Auckland and Wellington contributed 76% and 19% of

the total annualised rental uplift respectively.

Argosy completed 31 leasing transactions across 74,376m

2

over the year to 31 March. Lease transactions were made up of

new leases (23), extensions (3), renewals (5).

Key leasing transaction successes over the financial year include:

”It is very pleasing to have 7WQ now 100% leased, with 94% of

space occupied by government tenants. Coupled with the

substantially completed façade works, the building is now well

positioned to deliver resilient, long term income given its

weighting to highly defensive Government rental streams.

The Auckland Industrial sector continues to be very attractive

with strong bottom-up fundamentals, including low vacancy and

strong rental growth. It’s a resilient sector and has the best

forecast returns over the next five years. With half of Argosy’s

portfolio weighted to Industrial, the pipeline of green Value Add

development industrial sites will enhance our portfolio quality

and resilience over the longer term” said Peter Mence.

Acquisitions and Value Add Developments
After balance date

, Argosy acquired 100 Maui Street (Maui

Street), located in Pukete, Hamilton for $33.1 million. Maui Street

has excellent connectivity to motorway arterials and State

Highway One.

The purchase price was the mid-point of a Colliers International

initial valuation range and gives an IRR of 6.7% and an initial yield

of 4.5%.

The acquisition environment remains strong despite rising

interest rates. As highlighted above, Argosy remains open to

strategic acquisitions that meet its investment criteria, preferably

industrial sites within a prime industrial precinct with the

capacity to support tenant growth aspirations.

Divestment of non Core Assets

Argosy sold the Albany Lifestyle Centre in April 2021 and Omahu

Road, Hastings in September 2021. In the second half of FY22, the

Company announced it had unconditionally sold 25 Nugent Street

in Auckland, for $22.0 million. The sale to a local investor,

reflected a 28% premium above book value and settlement is

expected to occur in September 2022. These sales reflect the back

end of Argosy’s capital management initiatives over the last 24

months, where assets no longer meet Argosy’s investment

criteria.

Investment Policy Bands

The Board made a strategic decision to adjust Argosy’s

Investment Policy target bands to increase the portfolios

weighting towards the strongly performing Industrial sector.

Accordingly, by portfolio value, the Industrial target is now

55-65% (was 45-55%), Office is now 25-35% (was 30-40%) and

the Large Format Retail target is now 5-15% (was 10-20%).

Peter Mence said “We have done a lot of work assessing the

organic Value Add opportunities within the portfolio coupled

with analysis of forecast sector returns. Auckland Industrial is

forecast to be the best performing sector over the medium term

and by delivering on our current pipeline of Value Add

opportunities, we expect to be within our new target bands over

the medium term. We’re excited about what the future holds for

Argosy and the development team are going to be extremely busy

delivering a pipeline of well-designed, vibrant and sustainable

spaces for tenants and their staff to work and flourish.”

land

Peter Mence said “We are pleased to have made an

acquisition in the Waikato Region. By location, the

property is consistent with our strategy and enhances our

exposure to the attractive Industrial sector. Prolife Foods

are a well-established local food manufacturer. They are

a high quality partner and an essential service, which

aligns with our strategy of being a diversified business

with resilient earnings and cashflows. There is also

8,100m

of vacant land for development in the future

which provides additional attraction to this acquisition.

We’re pleased to welcome Prolife Foods into the Argosy

family. The acquisition sees Argosy with a portfolio

weighting to the Golden Triangle of 1.5% versus our 5%

target and increases our overall Industrial exposure to

approximately 52%.”

Baker Transport (PBT)

This $8.8 million redevelopment targeting 4 Green Star continues

to progress well.

Argosy Chief Executive Officer Peter Mence said ”This type of

project really embodies our vision of building a better future for

our tenants, their staff, the environment and of course our

stakeholders. Argosy has built a market leading position over the

last decade in redeveloping existing buildings into green assets,

and we have more of these industrial opportunities in the pipeline.

Extending PBT’s lease at the location for ten years was

fundamental to the project and exemplifies the benefits of having

valuable relationships with our tenants to support their long-term

strategic growth aspirations. "

The development is expected to be completed by September 2022.

105 Carlton Gore Road, Newmarket

Argosy has commenced another project with this $35 million

green redevelopment with an expected completion date in May

2023. The building is now targeting 6 Green Star certification

(previously 5 Star) and is forecast to be valued at $65 million on

completion, generating an IRR of 7.2% and a yield on cost of 5.3%.

Leasing enquiry for the redeveloped building is strong, and it is

expected that it will be leased prior to completion.

“The green redevelopment at 105 Carlton Gore Road will certainly

offer something different, bringing a fresh and vibrant look to the

area” said Peter Mence.

12-16 & 18-20 Bell Avenue, Mt

W

ellington - Peter Baker Transport

Peter Baker Transport (PBT) has occupied 12-16 and 18-20

Bell Avenue in Mt Wellington, Auckland since August

1999.

In November 2021, Argosy announced that it had entered

into an agreement with PBT for it to undertake an

$8.8 million refurbishment and redevelopment of the

sites to reposition them. The development would be

targeting a 4 Green Star Built rating and as part of the

agreement, PBT has entered into a new 10-year lease. On

completion, the project is forecast to have a yield on total

development cost of 5.2%, a valuation of $69.0 million and

IRR of 8.3%.

Argosy Chief Executive Officer Peter Mence said ”We are

very pleased to extend our existing relationship with PBT

for a further 10 years. PBT has been a long term partner

of ours for twenty years and we’re excited to have them

support this new green project and remain part of our

portfolio for the foreseeable future.

The development is very much on strategy and

demonstrates tenants are increasingly collaborative

around environmental and sustainability issues and keen

to support our commitment to reduce our carbon

emissions. The recent expansion of our development

team reflects our commitment to deliver on the growing

development pipeline across the business.”

The landlord base build works across the two properties

includes full upgrades and an end of trip facility. The

external works include new asphalt circulation on the site

and a concrete hardstand to the front-loading zone of

12-16 Bell Ave. The development is projected to be

completed by September 2022.

Portfolio Overview
Investment Policy Framework

Ar

gosy has a Clearly Defined

Investment Framework

Argosy is, and will remain, invested in a portfolio that is diversified

by sector, location and tenant mix. The Investment Strategy is

unchanged and Argosy’s portfolio will continue to consist

primarily of Core and Value Add properties.

Core

Core properties are well constructed, well located assets which

are intended to be long-term investments of more than 10 years.

The Core properties target is between 75% to 90% of the portfolio

by value. Core properties are well located with strong long-term

generic demand, a leasing profile that provides for rental growth

of at least CPI and good structural integrity with minimal

maintenance capital expenditure required.

Value Add

Value Add properties are assets which, through skilled asset

management, can increase future earnings and provide capital

growth. Value Add properties will already be well located with

the potential for strong long-term tenant demand. These

properties are available for near to medium-term repositioning or

development with the view to moving into the Core category.

Investment Policy

The Investment Policy clearly defines what properties Argosy will

seek to own by setting the boundaries within which it will operate

and invest. It delivers a clear acquisition checklist and every

potential acquisition (and portfolio asset) can be measured

against that checklist.

In some cases, a portfolio of assets may be considered for

acquisition. The strategy for a potential portfolio acquisition must

be consistent with the overall Argosy Portfolio Investment

Strategy (i.e. the majority by value of the properties are either Core

or offer potential to move to Core in the medium-term).

In certain circumstances, exceptions to the Investment Policy

may be considered where an acquisition is made to meet the

requirements of a valued tenant.

Investment Policy target bands have been adjusted to reflect

development opportunities over the medium-term and the effect

on overall portfolio composition. The Industrial target is now

55-65% (was 45-55%), Office is now 25-35% (was 30-40%) and

the Large Format Retail target is now 5-15% (was 10-20%).

Argosy’s diversified portfolio of quality properties has an average

value of $41.7 million. This allows the Company to react quickly

to changing economic or property market conditions. Liquid

properties, which are properties that could potentially be under

contract within a short period, currently represent 24% of the

portfolio or $519.0 million.

Capital Management

The optimal capital structure for Argosy is one that enables it to

maximise its earnings yield through the property cycle within the

following parameters:


pr

operties can be acquired when they meet the approved

Investment Policy criteria, or sold when they are non Core;


there are no forced sales of properties or a requirement to issue

equity at a price that is dilutive to shareholders;


measured dividend growth is maintained.

Argosy’s debt-to-total assets ratio target band remains at 30-40%.

This band allows Argosy flexibility to react to changing financial

and property market conditions. Any movement beyond pre-set

parameters requires an action plan and timeframe to move debt

levels to within the prescribed range.

Risk Management

Argosy strives to deliver reliable and attractive returns to

shareholders. It takes a considered approach to development,

acquisition, divestment, leasing and capital management

decisions, reflecting its proposition to shareholders as a yield-

based investment.

Argosy has a robust risk assessment process. Risk assessment

reviews are carried out by a representative cross-section of

Argosy’s management team at least twice a year in accordance

with Argosy’s Risk Management Framework. A risk assessment

review has three phases: identification of material risks arising

from Argosy’s operation; assessment of the probability and

consequences of the risk; and development of controls to achieve

a level of residual risk that is within Argosy’s risk appetite.

Argosy generally operates within a medium/low overall risk

range. Argosy has a low risk appetite for risks associated with

managing developments, Value Add projects and compliance

matters.

Materiality Assessment

F

or the year to 31 March 2022 Argosy implemented sustainability

reporting on material topics in accordance with GRI reporting

principles (core option). To identify material topics, Argosy

engaged EY to carry out a materiality assessment under GRI

guidelines. EY reviewed Argosy’s peers, media commentary,

industry perspectives, as well as Argosy’s internal documentation.

Stakeholders were identified b

y Argosy’s Management team and

include investors, lenders, tenants, suppliers and industry groups.

The material topics and their priority were determined based on

interviews with stakeholders and a workshop with members of

Argosy’s Management team.

The materiality assessment carried out by EY identified seven

material ESG topics as shown in the matrix below.

Our ESG Approach
Reducing Carbon Emissions, Energy and Waste

Argosy's approach

The impact of Argosy’s business on

the natural environment is an

increasingly important consideration

for investors, tenants and other

stakeholders.

Argosy recognises that an important part of its responsibility to

stakeholders and central to ensuring a sustainable business, is to

focus on reducing carbon emissions, energy usage and waste over

the medium to long term.

Key building performance measures include carbon emissions,

energy used and waste produced. Argosy is focused on reducing

the impact these have on the natural environment and utilises

third party verification wherever possible to validate building

performance. Third party verification includes New Zealand

Green Building Council Green Star Built Ratings (around overall

building quality, environmental benefits, recycling and waste

diversion) and NABERSNZ ratings (energy). In 2021, Argosy

engaged Toitū Envirocare to help it identify, measure, monitor and

report on its carbon emissions with a view to reducing these over

time. In the short term, Argosy will offset its carbon emissions with

carbon credits.

Green Buildings

The

company strives to improve the environmental performance

of its properties and the portfolio of which approximately 26.1%

are green buildings by value. The World Green Building Council

set the framework for sustainability tools and the New Zealand

Green Building Council (NZGBC) customised the tools to reflect

the New Zealand environment. A Green Star “Built” rating is a tool

that verifies what is built rather than what is designed. We believe

that tool is more appropriate as it reflects the finished product.

In accordance with Argosy’s Green Bond Framework, green assets

are those existing and/or planned Office, Industrial and Large

Format Retail buildings, including upgrades that are either

targeting or have been certified as obtaining either a minimum 4

Star NZGBC Green Star Built rating or a minimum 4-Star

NABERSNZ Energy Base Building Rating or Energy Whole

Building Rating.

With a focus on ensuring the long term sustainability of its

business, coupled with a corporate goal of greening 50% of the

portfolio by 2031, Argosy will continue to transform the portfolio

into one which is better for the environment but also delivers

better outcomes for tenants and their staff, over and above

financial returns to shareholders.

NABERSNZ

NABERSNZ is a rating tool based on the National Australian Built

Environment Rating System and this is licensed to EECA and

administrated by NZGBC. This is an energy efficiency rating that

standardises buildings to allow comparisons to be made. The

ability to understand how much energy is being used provides the

benchmark against which energy reductions can be measured.

Our ESG Approach
Changing Lives, Saving Lives

Engaging, investing and contributing

to the communities we live in.

Argosy's approach


A resilient business is one which maintains strong and valued

relationships and remains committed to actively engaging

with all its stakeholders.


As one of New Zealand’s largest commercial landlords, Argosy

is in a unique position to make a real difference.


Argosy has reset its long term social aspirations to making a

much bigger and more positive impact in the communities it

operates in.

Performance

Through 2022 Argosy delivered on its financial commitment to

its community partners. This includes five surf life saving clubs

across New Zealand, Pillars, The Spirit of Adventure Trust and

Variety – the childrens charity. As part of Argosy’s new 10-year

vision of Building a better future, Argosy is planning on materially

lifting its social investment with its focus based around the

philosophy of ‘changing lives, saving lives’. To this end, we

continue to formalise our framework and with support from EY,

we expect to update stakeholders on our social investment

programme at our interim result in November 2022.

Argosy continues to maintain a broad range of commercial and

non-commercial partnerships. Annual memberships include:

The New Zealand Shareholders Association, MSCI Real Estate,

The New Zealand Green Building Council, The Property Council

of New Zealand, and Toitū Net Carbonzero.

Surf Life Saving

Ar

gosy continues to support its five surf life saving partners across

New Zealand. These include: Red Beach Surf Life Saving Club

(SLSC), Hot Water Beach SLSC (Coromandel), Taylors Mistake

SLSC (Christchurch), Lyall Bay SLSC (Wellington) and St Clair

SLSC (Dunedin).

These five clubs and their members are part of a family of 74 Surf

Life Saving Clubs across New Zealand, and over 4,600 volunteer

surf lifeguards who patrol at over 80 locations every summer.

Lifeguards volunteered 241,000 hours to patrol beaches, saving

lives and keeping people safe over the last season. We continue to

be amazed at the commitment to keeping communities safe every

year, which is why Argosy’s partnerships with local clubs is

incredibly important and it will continue to support them at every

opportunity.

“Supporting New Zealand's surf

lifesaving community continues to be

one of Ar

gosy's most successful

social investments.”

ariety – The Childrens Charity

Variety aspires to ensure all children have the opportunity to

reach their full potential and give disadvantaged kids the

childhood they deserve. Through the 2021 winter Argosy worked

closely with Variety to again support their ‘kids in beds’ winter

appeal. Argosy considers Variety an amazing organisation. The

impact from Covid-19 over the last two years has made their

support of those families and children most in need even more

important. Now in its third partnership year, Argosy again

supported the winter appeal with $7,500 towards blankets,

bedding packs and beds. Argosy staff continue to dip into their

own pockets and topped up the company sponsorship by $2,050,

making a total sponsorship package of $9,550. This allowed

Variety to provide 28 beds and bedding packs for children over

winter.

“My daughter was sleeping on the

floor without warm enough clothes or

bedding. Now she has a lovely bed

and bedding which has impr

oved her

health and wellbeing.”

ARIETY SPONSORED FAMILY

Pillars

Pillars has been a community partner since 2019

. Established 30

years ago, Pillars is a charity dedicated to supporting children of

prisoners. In 2022, it was pleasing to hear that the Argosy support

of $7,500 was shared among 50 families in South Auckland and

Hamilton, through a combination of emergency food support,

personal protective equipment (PPE) supplies, basic medicines,

school supplies and then later for Christmas presents.

Throughout lockdown, Pillars had many families needing food

support - but many food banks were inundated and could not

always provide for everyone.

“Argosy's donation was r

elied upon to

put food onto the tables of families

who were going hungry. We also

used it to fund the purchase of

supplies including masks, sanitiser

and gloves.”

Corrina Thompson

SENIOR MENTORING COORDINATOR

Argosy's s

organisation does to help their communities.

Next Generation Sport

In J

anuary 2022, Argosy supported The World School Sevens

which was hosted at Pakuranga Rugby Club. Eighteen sides

competed over two days which included boys and girls teams. The

event was broadcast live on Sky Sport and was also live-streamed

internationally through Rugby Pass. This year was a record crowd,

with over 6,000 people attending across the two days. Other key

statistics from the event were:


324 participants


47 games


7 nations


5 international and 2 domestic broadcasters

“The tournament was a resounding

success

given the Covid-19 affected

year we had experienced. We thank

Argosy for their support and hope to

have you on board again next year! ”

Staff volunteer days

Ar

gosy continues to encourage its staff to undertake community

volunteer work and give their time to organisations of their

choice. Volunteer work is an important way to engage with our

communities and support the delivery of outcomes over and

above financial returns. Sadly, Covid-19 affected Argosy’s staff

volunteer work in the community during the year. A handful of

staff did manage to get involved in their communities however,

including helping out at the New Zealand Food Network (NZFN).

NZFN acts as a National Food Rescue Facilitator that collects

quality surplus and donated bulk food from producers, growers

and wholesalers around the country. NZFN then delivers this food

to community organisations including iwi and charities across

New Zealand, so that they may feed the communities they serve.

Organisations which normally benefit from the great volunteer

work of staff include Pillars, The ManKind Project and Auckland

City Mission. Argosy staff will be aiming to resume their

commitment and support in the FY23 year.

Employee Wellbeing - Better People

Support the health & wellbeing of its

people

Argosy's appr

oach

Broadly, health & wellbeing relates to all aspects of working life,

from the quality and safety of the physical working environment,

to how staff feel about their job, their actual work space (including

resources and set up), their environment and corporate culture.

The better the employee wellbeing, the better an organisations

ability to achieve results and deliver on corporate goals and

strategy. We continued to see evidence of this through the course

of FY22.

Argosy remains committed to providing a healthy and safe

workplace for all its employees and has its workplace Health and

Safety Committee (HSC) in place. The HSC drives initiatives such

as the provision of subsidised gym memberships (physical health)

and access to independent employee assistance programs (mental

health).

In addition, permanent employees are provided with health, life

and disability insurance cover as part of their employment.

The FY22 year saw additional lockdowns and red-light settings

impacting on staff. During this time the HSC continued to ensure

all staff had access to everything they needed to be as effective and

efficient at home as they are at work. As we head into FY23, Argosy

retains flexible working arrangements for staff as required.

Performance


Engage with employees via the HSC and annual staff surveys;


Professional development plans for staff;


Support for professional courses; and


Monitor and report on effectiveness of flexible working

arrangements for all staff.

Developing Our Talent

Argosy continues to invest resources into upskilling its people to

ensure it has the necessary skills and experience to perform

expertly and professionally. As the business changes and adapts

to an ever changing competitive environment, so to must the

resources to meet those changes. Each employee has a personal

development plan as part of their Employee Performance Plan

(EPP). The EPP is developed with the employee's line manager

and reviewed as part of the annual review process.

Despite the challenges brought on by Covid-19 in FY22, Argosy

staff continued to upskill across a range of areas including

Refresher St John First Aid and sustainability courses. One

employee continues to progress with their Masters of Business

Administration (MBA) through the University of Otago and

delivered some staff training from their course learnings. Argosy

has also supported staff through professional accounting

examinations.

With significant growth aspirations, Argosy also bolstered its

development team with additional resources in recognition of the

opportunities that lie ahead.

Diversity

Argosy's appr

oach

Argosy is committed to creating and maintaining a diverse,

Health & Safety

Zer

o Harm

Argosy's approach

Argosy’s Health and Safety Policy sets out its commitment to an

aspirational vision of zero harm. Argosy acknowledges

responsibilities in relation to the health and safety of our own

employees, to other workers employed by contractors involved in

maintenance and construction work at our buildings, tenants who

occupy our buildings and the public who visit our buildings.

Argosy’s health and safety commitments include accurate

recording and reporting of workplace incidents, supporting

innovation and fresh ideas to improve health and safety systems,

encouraging worker participation in health and safety and

enabling the safe and early return to work of injured employees.

Implementation of Argosy’s Health and Safety Framework is

overseen by a Management Health and Safety Committee

comprising a cross-section of employees and the Board’s ESG

Committee. The Management Health and Safety Committee

provides regular reporting to the Board on health and safety

incidents and risks.

Led by our Head of Health & Safety, Argosy’s staff regularly

participate in industry workshops such as SiteSafe and

Contractor Induction Groups.

Before work can commence at any Argosy site, contractors are

required to undergo pre-qualification and induction to Argosy’s

contractor management system. This system helps to monitor the

work at our sites and ensure that all work is carried out to the

highest standards and in accordance with best health and safety

practices. It also provides real time notifications of risks and

emergency procedures to contractors visiting our buildings

through smart phone technology.

Argosy’s Head of Health and Safety also meets with contractors

at the start of significant projects and carries out safety audits to

help ensure that works are carried out in accordance with the best

health and safety practices. Health and safety procedures at work

sites are discussed with contractors and unsatisfactory audit

results are followed up.

Argosy’s health and safety procedures are periodically reviewed

b

y external health and safety experts. An assessment of Argosy’s

Health and Safety Framework and the operating effectiveness of

controls was carried out in 2021. This assessment focused on key

controls for Argosy’s top three critical health and safety risks,

which were found to be operating effectively. Argosy’s top three

critical health and safety risks have been identified as;


management of sub-contractors;


approval of contractors; and


high-risk work (involving working at heights, fire system

isolation, hot works, confined spaces, asbestos removal or EPS

panels).

Covid-19

With the concerns around Covid-19 Argosy has added a new

section into its safety audit that specifically looks at personal

safety on site in line with Ministry of Business, Innovation and

Employment guidelines.

Before a contractor can move up alert levels, they are required to

supply a Return to Work policy which is vetted and approved. This

ensures that a contractor is meeting all obligations from the

authority, Argosy and the tenant.

Argosy schedules regular supervisor/site manager meetings with

its major contractors where it takes the opportunity to discuss

with those who manage people, its expectations regarding health

and safety on site. Argosy has found this is reducing the incidence

of tenant complaints during work because of a greater alignment

of expectations.

7 Health and Safety Strategic Goals

Ar

gosy is committed to excellence in health and safety

performance and creating a positive health and safety culture by

managing risks, providing adequate training and resources and

ensuring that contractors and individual workers are accountable

for their attitudes and behaviour in relation to health and safety.

Argosy has seven health and safety strategic goals which are

reflected in its health and safety policy and underpin our approach

to managing health and safety:

1.

Proactively identify risks and implement actions to eliminate,

isolate or minimise the risk of harm.

2.

Consult and actively engage with employees, tenants and

contractors to ensure they have the training, skills, knowledge

and resources to maintain a healthy and safe workplace.

3.

Maintain and continually improve our health and safety

systems.

4.

Actively encourage our contractors and tenants to

demonstrate the same commitment to achieving excellence in

health and safety performance as Argosy does.

5.

Support the health and wellbeing of Argosy staff and

encourage the safe and early return to work of injured or ill

employees.

6.

Comply with all relevant legislation and regulations including

the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015.

7.

Ensure that all incidents are reported and that root causes are

investigated where there is a serious health and safety risk.

Progress

The health and safety initiativ

es that were operating during the

year include:

• New pre-qualification format for sub-contractors with the view

to increase the skill levels on site;

• Pre-start project meetings continue to include high risk work

based on a risk matrix;

• Regularly monitoring risk mitigation controls;

Performance

7 Health and Safety Strategic Goals

Argosy is committed to excellence in health and safety

performance and creating a positive health and safety culture by

managing risks, providing adequate training and resources and

ensuring that contractors and individual workers are accountable

for their attitudes and behaviour in relation to health and safety.

Argosy has seven health and safety strategic goals which are

reflect its health and safety policy and underpin our approach to

managing health and safety:

1.

Proactively identify risks and implement actions to eliminate,

isolate or minimise the risk of harm.

2.

Consult and actively engage with employees, tenants and

contractors to ensure they have the training, skills knowledge

and resources to maintain a healthy and safe workplace.

3.

Maintain and continually improve our health and safety

systems.

4.

Actively encourage our contractors and tenants to

demonstrate the same commitment to achieving excellence in

health and safety performance as Argosy does.

5.

Support the health and wellbeing of Argosy staff and

encourage the safe and early return to work of injured or ill

employees.

6.

Comply with all relevant legislation and regulations including

the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015.

7.

Ensure that all incidents are reported and that root causes are

investigated where there is a serious health and safety risk.

Progress

The health and safety initiatives that were operating during the

year include:

• New pre-qualification format for sub-contractors with the view

to increase the skill levels on site;

• Pre-start project meetings continue to include high risk work

based on a risk matrix;

• Regularly monitoring risk mitigation controls;

• New processes in place to deal with contractor health and safety

rule breaches;

• Providing ongoing training and appropriate equipment to staff;

• Audit of every contractor at least once a year or as appropriate

depending on a contractors incident history;

• Conducting monthly contractors meetings to discuss key health

and safety issues. Argosy continues to hold meetings with tenants

to ensure a co-operative approach is taken regarding health and

safety at their buildings.

Annual Report 2022Argosy Property Limited

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. REPORTING ENTITY

Ar

gosy Property Limited (APL or the Company) is an FMC

Reporting Entity under the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013

and the Financial Reporting Act 2013. APL is incorporated under

the Companies Act 1993 and domiciled in New Zealand.

The Company’s principal activity is investment in properties

which include Industrial, Office and Large Format Retail

properties throughout New Zealand.

These financial statements are the consolidation of APL and its

subsidiaries (the Group).

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION

Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance

with Generally Accepted Accounting Practice in New Zealand

(NZ GAAP). The accounting policies applied in these financial

statements comply with New Zealand equivalents to

International Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS) and other

applicable Financial Reporting Standards issued and effective at

the time of preparing these statements as applicable to the

Company as a profit-oriented entity. These Group financial

statements also comply with International Financial Reporting

Standards (IFRS).

These financial statements were approved by the Board of

Directors on 17 May 2022.

Basis of measurement

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost

basis except for derivative financial instruments and investment

properties which are measured at fair value.

Use of estimates and judgements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with NZ

IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates that

affect the application of policies and reported amount of assets

and liabilities, income and expenses. The area involving a higher

degree of complexity and where assumptions and estimates are

significant to the financial statements is note 5 - valuation of

investment property.

Functional and presentation currency

These financial statements are presented in New Zealand dollars

which is the Company’s functional currency and have been

rounded to the nearest thousand dollars ($000).

Basis of consolidation

The Group’s financial statements incorporate the financial

statements of APL and its controlled subsidiaries as set out in note

24. Control is achieved when the Company has power over the

investee; is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its

involvement with the investee, and has the ability to use its power

to affect its returns. The results of the subsidiaries are included

in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the

date of acquisition which is the date the Company became entitled

to income from the subsidiaries acquired. All significant

intercompany transactions are eliminated on consolidation.

Statement of cash flows

The s

tatement of cash flows is prepared on a GST exclusive basis,

which is consistent with the statement of comprehensive income.

The following terms are used in the statement of cash flows:

Operating activities are the principal revenue producing

activities of the Group and other activities that are not investing

or financing activities.

Investing activities are the acquisition and disposal of long term

assets and other investments not included in cash equivalents.

Financing activities are activities that result in changes in the

size and composition of the contributed equity and borrowings of

the entity. Termination payments for swap contracts,

establishment fees, extension fees and arranger fees are

considered financing activities as they effect a change in the

company’s borrowing arrangements.

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and demand

deposits. Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form

an integral part of the Group’s cash management are included as

a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the

statement of cash flows.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Insurance income recognition

The company recognises income from insurance proceeds when

it is virtually certain that the claims made in an accounting period

have been accepted by insurers.

A settlement was reached with insurers in the year to 31 March

2021 in respect of the earthquake damage at 7 Waterloo Quay as

a result of the 2016 Kaikoura earthquake.

Total insurance proceeds of $47.5m have been received, of which

$24.1m were recognised in the year to 31 March 2021. These

insurance proceeds have been allocated across rental losses,

expenses incurred as a result of the earthquake and reinstatement

of material damage.

Change in accounting policies

Accounting policies and methods of computation have been

applied consistently to all periods and by all Group entities.

Some comparative balances have been amended to reflect current

year presentation.

New accounting standards adopted

At the date of authorisation of these financial statements, the

Group has not applied any new and revised NZ IFRS standards

and amendments that have been issued but are not yet effective.

It is not expected that the adoption of these standards and

amendments will have a material impact on the financial

statements of the Group.

4. SEGMENT INFORMATION
The principal business activity of the Gr

oup is to invest in, and actively manage, properties in New Zealand. NZ IFRS 8 Operating

Segments requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports about components of the Group that are regularly

reviewed by the chief operating decision maker, being the Chief Executive Officer, in order to allocate resources to segments and assess

their performance.

The information reported to the Group’s Chief Executive Officer includes investment property information aggregated into three

business sectors, Industrial, Office and Large Format Retail, based on what the occupants actual or intended use is. Segment profit

represents profit earned by each segment including allocation of identifiable revaluation gains on investment properties and gains/

(losses) on disposal of investment properties.

The following is an analysis of the Group’s results by reportable segments.

Annual Report 2022Argosy Property Limited

5. INVESTMENT PROPERTIES
Accounting policy – Investment properties

In

vestment property is property held either to earn rental income, for capital appreciation or for both.

Investment property is initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at fair value with any change therein recognised

in profit or loss.

Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging operating leases and lease incentives granted are added to the carrying

amount of the leased asset.

In accordance with the valuation policy of the Group, complete property valuations are carried out at least annually by

independent registered valuers. The valuation policy stipulates that the same valuer may not value a building for more than

two consecutive years. The fair values are based on market values being the estimated amount for which a property could be

exchanged on the date of the valuation between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s length transaction after proper

marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion.

The valuations are prepared using a combination of the Capitalisation of Contract Income, Capitalisation of Market Income

and Discounted Cash Flow methodologies. Discounted Cash Flow methodology is based on the estimated rental cash flows

expected to be received from the property adjusted by a discount rate that appropriately reflects the risks inherent in the

expected cash flows.

Following the adoption of NZ IFRS 16 on 1 April 2019, a right-of-use asset and investment were recognised on the ground lease

that exists over 39 Market Place, Viaduct Harbour, Auckland.

Investment properties are derecognised when they have been disposed of and any gains or losses incurred on disposal are

recognised in profit or loss in the year of derecognition.

Borrowing costs directly attributable to property under development are capitalised as part of the cost of those assets.

Investment properties are stated at fair value by independent valuers supported by market evidence of property sale transactions and

leasing activity. These valuations are reviewed by the Asset Management team within Argosy. The major inputs and assumptions that

are used in the valuation that require judgement include forecasts of the current and expected future market rentals and growth,

maintenance and capital expenditure requirements, an assessment of yields, discount rates, occupancy, leasing costs and weighted

average lease terms.

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, conditions and quality of construction and fitout.

Generally as occupancy and weighted average lease terms increase, yields firm, resulting in increased fair values for investment

properties. A movement in any of these assumptions could result in a significant change in fair value.

6. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Accounting policy - Non-derivative financial instruments

N

on-derivative financial instruments comprise trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, borrowings (comprising

of interest bearing liabilities and lease liabilities) and trade and other payables.

Non-derivative financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus directly attributable costs. Subsequently these

instruments are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The carrying values of these financial

instruments are a reasonable approximation of their fair values.

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset or financial liability and of

allocating interest income over the relevant period (including all fees and points paid or received between the parties to the

contract that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through

the expected life of the financial instrument, or, where appropriate, a shorter period to the net carrying amount of the financial

instrument.

Accounting policy - Derivative financial instruments

Interest rate swaps are entered into to manage interest rate exposure. For interest rate swaps, the net differential paid or received

is recognised as a component of interest expense in the profit or loss.

Interest rate swaps are initially recognised at zero at the date a derivative contract is entered into and are remeasured to their

fair value at subsequent reporting dates. The resulting gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately.

Interest rate swaps are presented as a non-current asset or a non-current liability if the remaining maturity of the instrument

is more than 12 months and it is not expected to be realised or settled within 12 months. Other interest rate swaps are presented

as current assets or current liabilities.

Risk management

The use of financial ins

truments exposes the Group to credit,

interest rate and liquidity risks. The Group’s overall risk

management programme focuses on the unpredictability of

financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects

on the Group’s financial performance.

Credit risk

Credit risk relates to the risk that the counterparty to a financial

instrument may default on its obligations to the Group, resulting

in financial loss.

The Group's main exposure to credit risk arises from trade

receivables and transactions with financial institutions, and is

summarised in the preceding table. There are no significant

concentrations of credit risk in specific receivables due to

receivables mainly comprising a large number of tenants in the

Group’s property portfolio and the Group policy to limit the

amount of credit exposure to any financial institution.

The Group manages its exposure to credit risk from trade

receivables through its credit policy which includes performing

credit evaluations on customers requiring credit. The Group does

not hold any collateral in respect of balances past due. Details of

impairment losses relating to trade receivables together with the

ageing of receivables is provided in note 8.

The risk from financial institutions is managed by placing cash

and deposits with high credit quality financial institutions only.

Cash deposits are placed with ANZ Bank New Zealand Limited.

Interest rate risk

Inter

est rate risk arises from long term borrowings (refer note 14).

Variable rate borrowings expose the Group to cash flow interest

rate risk while fixed rate borrowings expose the group to fair value

interest rate risk.

The Group manages its exposure to interest rate risk through

derivatives in the form of both floating-to-fixed and fixed-to-

floating interest rate swaps. These derivatives provide an

economic hedge against variability in cash flows as a result of

changes in variable interest rates on borrowings.

The Group’s policy is to maintain a range of approximately

40-100% of its borrowings in fixed interest rate instruments

unless otherwise instructed by the Board of Directors. At year end,

57.1% of borrowings, after the effect of associated swaps, were at

fixed rates (2021: 50.7%).

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group may encounter difficulty

in meeting its obligations associated with its financial liabilities

that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset.

Liquidity risk mainly arises from the Group’s obligations in

respect of long term borrowings, derivatives and trade and other

payables. The Group aims to maintain flexibility in funding by

keeping committed credit lines available (refer note 14).

1. The undiscounted cashflows on inter

est bearing liabilities includes interest, margin and line fees.

To manage the Group’s exposure to interest rate risk on variable rate instruments, the Group has implemented a hedging strategy that

uses inter

est rate swaps that have a range of maturities. At 31 March 2022, the Group had active interest rate derivatives (both payer

and receiver swaps) with a notional contract amount of $725 million (2021: $710 million). The active derivatives mature over the next

6 years (2021: 7 years). Payer swaps have fixed interest rates ranging from 0.93% to 4.90% (2021: 0.93% to 4.90%). Swaps with a notional

amount of $55 million have been entered into but are not yet effective at 31 March 2022 (2021: $20 million).

Interest rate swaps are measured at the present value of future cash flows estimated and discounted based on applicable yield curves

derived from observable market interest rates. Accepted market best practice valuation methodology using mid-market interest rates

at the balance date is used, provided from sources perceived to be reliable and accurate. Interest rate swaps have been classified into

Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy on the basis that the valuation techniques used to determine the values at balance date use observable

inputs.

The net liability for derivative financial instruments as at 31 March 2022 is $30.1 million (2021: $42.5 million). The mark-to-market

decrease in the liability for derivative financial instruments is a result of the movement in the interest rate curve during the financial

year.

7. OTHER NON-CURRENT ASSETS

Accounting policy - Property, plant and equipment

All pr

operty, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.

Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its assets to determine whether there is any

indication that those assets have suffered impairment. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is

estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment (if any). Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable

amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset

belongs.

An impairment is recognised immediately in profit or loss.

Accounting policy - Trade and other receivables

T

rade and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective

interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for impairment of trade receivables is established to reflect an

estimate of amounts that the Group will not be able to collect in accordance with the original terms of the receivables. The

amount of the provision is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash

flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate.

in each individual lease agreement. Interest is charged on receivables over 90 days on a case by case basis. The Group has

provided for 50% of all receivables over 90 days unless there is information suggesting that particular amounts are recoverable. This

amount increases to 100% of any receivable that is determined as not being recoverable. Trade receivables less than 90 days are provided

for based on estimated non-recoverable amounts, determined by reference to relevant factors, conditions, and information at reporting

date including past default experience.

Capital risk management

The Gr

oup's capital includes shares, reserves and retained earnings with total shareholders' funds equal to $1,472.1 million (2021:

$1,280.6 million).

The Group maintains a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain the Group's future

on-going activities and development of the business. The impact of the level of capital on equity holder returns is also recognised along

with the need to maintain a balance between the higher returns that might be possible with greater gearing and the advantages and

security afforded by a sound capital position.

The Board's intention is to maintain the debt-to-total-assets ratio between 30-40% in the medium term. The Group's banking covenants

require that the aggregate principal amount of the loan outstanding does not exceed 50% of the fair value of property at all times. All

banking covenants have been met during the year.

The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as a going concern while maximising the

return to stakeholders through optimisation of debt and equity. The Group's policies in respect of capital management and allocation

are reviewed regularly by the Board of Directors. There have been no material changes in the Group's overall strategy during the year.

12. SHARE BASED PAYMENTS RESERVE

Accounting policy - Share based payments

The

fair value of performance share rights (PSRs) are recognised as an expense in the statement of financial performance over

the vesting period of the rights with a corresponding entry to the share based payments reserve.

PSRs were offer

ed to senior executives, commencing 1 April 2015. Under the scheme, PSRs are issued to participants which give them

the right to receive ordinary shares in the Company after a three year period, subject to certain vesting and other conditions being met.

The vesting of the PSRs is subject to the Company achieving a positive total shareholder return (measured against the Company's share

price on the date of the issue of the PSRs, and including dividends) over a three year measurement period. The total number which

actually vest will be dependent on the relative ranking of the Company's total shareholder returns against a comparator group of listed

entities determined by the Board from the S&P/NZX All Real Estate Gross Index.

The total expense recognised in the year to 31 March 2022 in relation to equity settled share based payments was $206,400 (2021:

$240,996). A total of 318,573 (2021: Nil) PSRs vested during the year and each PSR was converted to one ordinary share at an issue

price of $1.51.

are measured at amortised cost with any difference being recognised in profit or loss over the expected life of the instrument

using the effective interest method.

Borrowing costs are the costs incurred in establishing the bank facility and fixed rate bonds. These costs are amortised over

the life of the instrument at the effective interest rate.

Accounting policy - Employee benefits

A pr

ovision is recognised for benefits accruing to employees in respect of annual leave and long service leave when it is probable

that settlement will be required and they are capable of being measured reliably.

Provisions made in respect of employee benefits expected to be settled within 12 months are measured at their nominal values

using the remuneration rate expected to apply at the time of settlement. Provisions made in respect of employee benefits which

are not expected to be settled within 12 months are measured as the present value of the estimated future outflows to be made

by the Group in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date.

xpense comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent

that it relates to items recognised directly in equity, in which case it is recognised in equity.

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at

the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

20. DEFERRED TAX
Accounting policy - Deferred tax

Deferr

ed tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial

statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit, and is accounted for using the balance

sheet liability method. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax

assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary

differences can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or

from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affect

neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.

Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset

realised.

Under NZ IAS 12, the measurement of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets depends on whether an entity expects to

recover an asset by using it or by selling it and includes a presumption that an investment property is recovered entirely through

sale unless it will be consumed over its useful life.

The follo

wing are the major deferred tax liabilities and (assets) recognised by the Group, and the movements thereon during the current

and prior reporting years:

Deferred tax is pr

ovided in respect of depreciation expected to be recovered on the sale of property at fair value. Depreciation is claimed

at Inland Revenue Department approved rates.

Investment properties are valued each year by independent valuers (as outlined in note 5). These values include an allocation of the

valuation between the land and building components. The calculation of deferred tax on depreciation recovered and changes in fair

value relies on the split provided by the valuers.

It is assumed that all fixtures and fittings will be sold at their tax book value.

25. LEASES

Accounting policy - Leases

T

he Group as a lessee

Argosy do not recognise right of use assets or lease liabilities for short term leases or low value leases. Lease payments for these

leases are recognised as an expense on a straight line basis over the lease term.

Where Argosy identifies a lease, the following treatment is applied:

Right of use assets are measured at cost comprising the amount of the initial lease liability, any payments made before the

commencement of the lease, direct costs and any restoration costs. Right of use assets are disclosed within the same line item

as that within which the corresponding underlying assets would be presented if they were owned. Some right of use assets

meet the definition of investment properties. Refer note 5 for policies and disclosure on investment properties.

Lease liabilities are measured at the net present value of the lease payments. These payments include fixed lease payments,

amount expected to be payable under residual value guarantees, variable lease payments that are based on an index or rate, the

exercise price of a purchase option if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option, and payments of penalties for

terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising that option.

These lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be determined, the lessee’s

incremental borrowing rate is used, being the rate that the lessee would have to pay to borrow the funds necessary to obtain

an asset of similar value in a similar economic environment with similar terms and conditions.

Subsequent to initial measurement, each lease payment is allocated between the principal and finance cost. The finance cost

is charged to the statement of comprehensive income over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest

on the remaining balance of the liability for each period.

The maturity analysis of lease liabilities is presented in note 6.

The Group as a lessor

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of

ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

The Group has entered into commercial property leases on its investment properties. The Group has determined that it retains

all significant risks and rewards of ownership of these properties and has thus classified these leases as operating leases.

Rental income from operating leases is recognised in the period to which it relates. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating

and arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and amortised to property expenses on

a straight-line basis over the lease term.

In the event that lease incentives are paid to enter into the operating leases, such incentives are recognised as an asset. The

aggregate cost of incentives is recognised as a reduction of rental revenue on a straight-line basis.

When a contract includes both lease and non-lease components, consideration is allocated to each component under the

contract.

Annual Report 2022Argosy Property Limited





To the Shareholders of Argosy Property Limited

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Argosy Property Limited and its subsidiaries (the ‘Group’),

which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 March 2022, and the consolidated

statement

of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for

the year then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant

accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements, on pages 50 to 77, present fairly, in all material

respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 31 March 2022, and its consolidated financial

performance and 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’).

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (‘ISAs’) and International Standards

on Auditing (New Zealand) (‘ISAs (NZ)’). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the

Auditor’s Responsibilities f

or 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.

We are independent of the Company in accordance with Professional and Ethical Standard 1 International Code of

Ethics for Assurance Practitioners (including International Independence Standards) (New Zealand) issued by the New

Zealand Auditing and Assurance Standards Board and the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’

International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards), and we

have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.

Other than in our capacity as auditor and vote scrutineering at the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting, we have no

relationship with or interests in the Company or any of its subsidiaries. These services have not impaired our

independence as auditor of the Company and Group.


Audit materiality



We consider materiality primarily in terms of the magnitude of misstatement in the financial statements of the Group

that in our judgement would make it probable that the economic decisions of a reasonably knowledgeable person

would be changed or influenced (the ‘quantitative’ materiality). In addition, we also assess whether other matters

that come to our attention during the audit would in our judgement change or influence the decisions of such a

person (the ‘qualitative’ materiality). We use materiality both in planning the scope of our audit work and in

evaluating the results of our work.

We determined materiality for the Group financial statements as a whole to be $3.2 million.

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 period. 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.

Investment property valuations


As disclosed in note 5 of the consolidated financial

statements, investment properties were valued at $2,248

million as at 31 March 2022. The investment properties are

classified into three segments being, Industrial, Office, and

Large Format Retail.


The methods used for assessing fair values include the

capitalisation of contract income, capitalisation of market

income and discounted cash flow methodologies. Fair values

are calculated using actual and forecasted inputs and

assumptions including market rentals and growth, maintenance

and capital expenditure requirements, an assessment of yields,

discount rates, occupancy, leasing costs and weighted average

lease terms. Adjustments are made to observable market data of

similar properties to reflect the specific nature and location of

the individual properties.


The Group’s policy is to engage independent registered

valuers to perform valuations for each of the properties on at


We read the valuation reports for all properties that were subject

to revaluation at year end. We checked for any limitations of scope

in the valuation reports that would impact the reliability of the

valuations. When considered appropriate, discussions were held

with the valuers to confirm the valuation approach used. These

discussions related to the general market, as well as specific

properties identified by us.

We assessed the valuers’ experience and professional

accreditations. This included having each of the valuers confirm

their independence, qualifications and that the scope of work

undertaken was in line with professional valuation standards and

financial reporting standards. In addition, we considered the

Group’s process for reviewing and challenging the valuation reports

to ensure that they accurately reflected the individual

characteristics of each property and the ongoing impacts that

COVID-19 may have had on the property portfolio.

The major inputs to the valuation process were tested across a

sample of properties. For the sample selected, key changes in

Other information


The Board of Directors are responsible on behalf of the Group for the other information. The other

information comprises the information in the Annual Report that accompanies the consolidated

financial statements and the audit report.

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we

do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

Our responsibility is to read the other information and consider whether it is materially inconsistent

with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise

appears to be materially misstated. If so, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to

report in this regard.

Board of Directors’ responsibilities

for the consolidated financial

statements

The Board of Directors are responsible on behalf of the Group 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 Board of 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 Board of Directors are responsible on behalf

of the Group for assessing the Group’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 Board of Directors either intend to liquidate the Group 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 and ISAs (NZ) 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.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements is

located on the External Reporting Board’s website at:

This report is made solely to the Company’s shareholders, as a body. Our audit has been undertaken so

that we might state to the Company’s shareholders those

auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
THE COMPANY

Ar

gosy is a limited liability company incorporated under the

Companies Act 1993. Argosy shares are listed on the NZX Main

Board (NZX code: ARG). Argosy’s constitution is available on its

website (www.argosy.co.nz) and the New Zealand Companies

Office website (www.companiesoffice.govt.nz).

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PHILOSOPHY

Ultimate responsibility for corporate governance of the Company

resides with the Board of Directors. The Board sees strong

corporate governance and stewardship as fundamental to the

strong performance of the Company and, accordingly, the Board’s

commitment is to the highest standards of business behaviour and

accountability.

Outlined below are the main corporate governance practices in

place throughout the year. In the Board’s opinion, as at 31 March

2022, the Company complied with the recommendations set by

the NZX Corporate Governance Code (10 December 2020),

except as set out in the Company’s Statement on Reporting

Against the NZX Code, which is available on the Company’s

website (www.argosy.co.nz).

ETHICAL STANDARDS

Argosy’s Code of Conduct and Ethics sets out the ethical and

behavioural standards expected of Argosy’s Directors, Officers

and employees. The purpose of the Code of Conduct and Ethics

is to uphold the highest ethical standards, acting in good faith and

in the best interests of shareholders at all times. The Code of

Conduct and Ethics outlines the Company’s policies in respect of

conflicts of interest, fair dealing, compliance with applicable laws

and regulations, maintaining confidentiality of information,

dealing with company assets and use of company information.

Procedures for dealing with breaches of these policies are

contained in the Code of Conduct and Ethics, which forms part

of each employee’s conditions of employment. Argosy’s Code of

Conduct and Ethics is available on its website

(www.argosy.co.nz).

COMPOSITION OF THE BOARD

Argosy is committed to having a Board whose members have the

capacity to act independently and have the composite skills to

optimise the financial performance of the Company and returns

to shareholders. The constitution provides for there to be not

fewer than three Directors. All the members of the Board are

independent non-executive Directors. The Board does not

impose a restriction on the tenure of any Director as it considers

that such a restriction may lead to the loss of experience and

expertise from the Board.

2022. Brief resumés of our current Directors are included in the

section headed “Our Leadership & Governance” on pages 36-37.

INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS

The Company recognises that independent directors are

important in assuring shareholders that the Board is properly

fulfilling its role and is diligent in holding management

accountable for its performance.

In determining whether a Director is independent, the Board

considers whether the Director is independent of management

and free of any business or other relationship that could

materially interfere with, or could reasonably be perceived to

materially interfere with, the exercise of his or her unfettered and

independent judgement. In accordance with Rule 2.6.1 of the NZX

Listing Rules, the Board has determined that all of the Directors

were, in its view, independent directors as at the balance date as

none of them had a disqualifying relationship with the Company.

In making this determination the Company has considered the

factors referred to in the commentary to Recommendation 2.4 of

the NZX Corporate Governance Code.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
BOARD AND DIRECTOR PERFORMANCE

The Boar

d will, regularly, critically evaluate its own performance,

and its own processes and procedures to ensure that they are not

unduly complex and are designed to assist the Board in effectively

fulfilling its role.

INSIDER TRADING AND RESTRICTED PERSONS

TRADING

Argosy’s Directors, Officers and employees, their families and

related parties must comply with the Insider Trading and

Restricted Persons Trading policy. Amongst other requirements,

the policy identifies three ‘black-out periods’ where trading in the

Company’s shares is prohibited (with limited exceptions, such as

a ‘special circumstances’ trading application). The black-out

periods are from the close of trading on 28 February (or

29 February in a leap year) until the day following the full year

announcement date; from the close of trading on 31 August until

the day following the half year announcement date each year; and

30 days prior to release of a product disclosure statement for a

general public offer of Argosy securities.

The black-out periods do not affect ongoing fixed participation in

the Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRP) which is generally

available throughout the year.

Trading by Directors, Officers, certain employees, and their

associates, requires pre trade approval (with limited exceptions,

such as shares acquired under the DRP). Officers and employees

must obtain approval from any two Directors or a Director and

the Chief Financial Officer and Directors must obtain pre-trade

approval from the Chairman (or in the case of the Chairman, the

Chairman of the Audit and Risk Committee). The holdings of

Directors securities in Argosy are disclosed in the section headed

'Directors' Shareholdings and Bondholdings' on page 86 of this

report. Argosy’s Insider Trading and Restricted Persons Trading

Policy is available on its website (www.argosy.co.nz).

DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS' INDEMNIFICATION

AND INSURANCE

In accordance with section 162 of the Companies Act 1993 and the

constitution of the Company, Argosy has indemnified and insured

its Directors and employees, including Directors and employees

of subsidiaries, in respect of liability incurred for any act or

omission in their capacity as a Director or employee (including

defence costs). The insurer reimburses the company where it has

indemnified the Directors or employees.

BOARD COMMITTEES

Board committees assist with the execution of the Board’s

responsibilities to shareholders. Each committee operates under

a constitution approved by the Board, setting out its role,

responsibilities, authority, relationship with the Board, reporting

requirements, composition, structure and membership. Argosy’s

Board committee constitutions are available on its website

(www.argosy.co.nz).

The current total Directors’ fee pool approved by ordinary

resolution at the Company’s 2021 Annual Meeting is $828,000 per

annum. The approved fee pool includes an unallocated amount of

$100,000 that provides flexibility to remunerate Directors who

assume additional responsibilities (including one-off project

work) from time to time beyond the scope of their usual

responsibilities.

Directors' Remuneration

Remuneration paid to Directors by the Company during the year

is as follows:

DirectorRemuneration

Jeff Morrison (Chair)$184,500

Stuart McLauchlan$117,889

Martin Stearne$109,889

Mike Pohio$105,736

Chris Gudgeon$103,889

Rachel Winder$101,452

The Company considers it desirable to attract and retain high

performing Dir

ectors whose skills and experience are well suited

to the Company’s requirements. To this end, it is important that

the Directors are remunerated appropriately. The Directors’ fees

are presently set as follows:


each Director (other than the Chairman) is paid $92,500 per

annum;


the Chairman is paid $160,000 per annum; and


additional amounts are paid to committee members.

The Audit and Risk Committee Chairman receives $20,000 per

annum and its members each receive $12,000 per annum. The

ESG Committee Chairman receives $15,000 and its members each

receive $10,000 per annum. The Remuneration Committee

Chairman receives $12,500 per annum and its members each

receive $6,000 per annum. The Remuneration Committee

reviews Director remuneration annually and makes

recommendations to the Board. The Board takes advice from

independent remuneration specialists when considering any

proposal to increase the Directors’ fees.

Additional payments may be made from the approved pool of

$828,000 to Directors who assume additional responsibilities

(including in relation to one-off project work) from time to time

beyond the scope of their usual responsibilities. In the year to

31 March 2022, $7,583 in additional payments were made to

members of the Company’s new ESG Committee and the

REMUNERATION REPORT

Under the guidance of the Remuneration Committee, the Board

has established a remuneration framework which is designed to

attract, retain and reward individual employees to deliver

premium performance aligned to business objectives, strategy,

shareholder interests and investment performance.

Employee Remuneration

An employee’s remuneration is comprised of the following

components:


fixed remuneration;


variable or ‘at risk’ components.

The fixed remuneration component (including salary, KiwiSaver

contributions, health and disability benefits and vehicles) is

designed to reward employees for their skills and experience and

the accountability of their role. The variable component is

comprised of a short-term incentive scheme for all permanent

employees and a long-term incentive scheme for eligible senior

executives.

Fixed Remuneration

Fix

ed remuneration is the primary basis for remunerating the

Company’s employees. Each employee’s fixed remuneration is

determined based on their responsibilities, capability,

performance and market benchmarks. Fixed remuneration for

permanent employees is comprised of their base salary and

benefits. Benefits may include:


KiwiSaver employer superannuation contributions;


life and disability insurance;


health insurance; and


private use of a company vehicle.

Short Term Incentive Scheme (STI)

The STI is a discretionary variable pay scheme for permanent

employees, designed to reward participants for high performance

and the Company’s success over the financial year.


The STI for all employees other than the CEO and CFO is based

on Company and individual performance measures with

stretch performance goals.


The Company performance measure is based on specific

annual Company targets, which are linked to the Company’s

strategy and approved by the Board.


Individual goals and performance measures are agreed

between each manager and their direct reports, to encourage

outstanding performance.


Measures and stretch performance goals are reviewed each

financial year.


The value of the STI and its weighting between Company and

individual performance measures each vary depending on the

requirements of each employee’s role.


The STI for each of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief

Financial Officer is based solely on Company performance.

Long Term Incentive Scheme (LTI)

The Company has established an LTI scheme for senior

executives. The scheme remunerates senior executives for

sustained performance over a three year period. Under the LTI

scheme, the Company may issue performance share rights (PSRs)

to eligible employees each year (currently the Chief Executive

Officer and Chief Financial Officer). Each PSR entitles its holder

to one share in Argosy on its vesting date, subject to meeting LTI

performance measures. Each PSR has a vesting date three years

after commencement of the financial year in which it is issued.

The LTI performance measure is a comparison of the Company’s

Total Shareholder Return (TSR) against the TSR of a comparator

group of listed entities determined by the Board.


Comparator entities are chosen from the S&P/NZX All Real

Estate Gross Index.


TSRs of the entities in the comparison group over the

performance period (which is three years) will be ranked from

highest to lowest.

84

Annual Report 2022Argosy Property Limited


I

f Argosy’s TSR over the performance period exceeds the TSR

of the company ranked at the 50th percentile in the

comparison group, 50% of the PSRs will vest.


If Argosy’s TSR over the performance period exceeds the TSR

of the company ranked at the 75th percentile in the comparison

group, 100% of the PSRs will vest.


There is a straight line progression and apportionment

between these two points. No shares will vest if the TSR over

the performance period is negative.

318,573 PSRs vested in the year ending 31 March 2022 and a

corresponding number of shares in the Company were issued to

senior executives. These PSRs vested in May 2021 because the

Company’s TSR exceeded the 50th percentile in the comparison

group over the applicable three-year period.

REMUNERATION

Chief Executive's Remuneration

The Chief Executive's remuneration for the year ended 31 March

2022 is outlined below:

INFORMATION USED BY DIRECTORS
N

o Director requested to use information received in his or her

INDEMNITIES AND INSURANCE

The Company effected insurance for Directors and employees for

liability (including defence costs) arising in respect of acts or

omissions while acting in the capacity of a director or employee,

and a policy for defence costs.

EXTERNAL AUDIT FIRM GUIDELINES

In addition to the formal constitution under which the Audit and

Risk Committee operates, the Audit and Risk Committee also has

an External Auditor Independence Policy containing procedures

to ensure the independence of the Company’s external auditor.

The Audit and Risk Committee is responsible for recommending

the appointment of the external auditor and maintaining

procedures for the rotation of the external audit lead partner.

Under the External Auditor Independence Policy, the external

audit lead partner must be rotated every five years.

The Policy covers provision of non-audit services with the general

principle being that the external auditor should not have any

involvement in the production of financial information or

preparation of financial statements such that they might be

perceived as auditing their own work. It is, however, appropriate

for the external auditor to provide services of due diligence on

proposed transactions and accounting policy advice.

Deloitte is the Company’s current external auditor.

Disclosures

Building a

better future

TCFD Report 2022
The impact of Argosy’s business on

the natural environment is an

increasingly important consideration

for investors, occupiers and other

stakeholders. Argosy recognises that

an important part of our responsibility

is to identify and assess the risks

presented by climate change, just as

we manage other risks facing our

business. This is Argosy’s second

year of reporting climate related

disclosures based on the TCFD’s

recommendations.

In this report we have added to last year’s reporting by including

disclosures on metrics and targets, reflecting the TCFD’s updated

guidance issued in 2021.

We anticipate that the New Zealand External Reporting Board

(XRB) will issue its climate related disclosure framework during

the current year and that Argosy’s next climate change report will

be based on the XRB’s framework. Based on the XRB’s published

implementation timeframes, it is anticipated that the XRB’s

framework will be mandatory for Argosy in the financial year

commencing 1 April 2023.

This report has been prepared based on the recommendations of

the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD)

which provides a framework for climate-related financial

disclosures across four core elements: governance, strategy,

risk management and metrics and targets.

Overview

2

Argosy Property Limited

TCFD Objective:
Disclose the organisation’s governance

around climate-related risks and

opportunities.

TCFD Requirement:

a) Describe the board’s oversight of climate-

related risks and opportunities.

b) Describe management’s role in assessing

and managing climate-related risks and

opportunities.

a) Describe the board’s oversight of climate-related

risks and opportunities.

Argosy’s Board is responsible for establishing, reviewing and

monitoring processes to identify climate change risks. The

Board’s Audit and Risk and ESG Committees also have specific

responsibilities to assist the Board with governance around

climate related risks.

The Audit and Risk Committee is responsible for overseeing the

management of climate related risks as part of its overall

responsibility for risk management which is implemented

through Argosy’s Risk Management Policy and Framework,

including Argosy’s risk register. The Audit and Risk Committee

oversees the risk register and reviews it regularly with

management. Argosy’s climate related risks are included in the

risk register.

The ESG Committee brings a particular focus to all ESG matters,

which includes considering climate related risks and

opportunities, and ensuring that these are brought to the Board’s

attention. The responsibilities of the ESG Committee are as

follows:


Identify and consider ESG matters relevant to the Company

and report to the Board as appropriate.


Identify and consider climate change risks arising from

physical risks of climate change and risks arising from the

transition to a low carbon economy.


Make recommendations on the Company’s approach to ESG

matters.


Oversee implementation of the Company’s Sustainability

Policy and ESG Framework.


Review and report to the Board on the Sustainability Policy

and ESG Framework.


Review the ESG elements of the Company's annual and

interim financial statements and recommend them to the

Board for approval.

b) Describe management’s role in assessing and

managing climate-related risks and opportunities.

Argosy established a Sustainability Committee in 2019. The

Sustainability Committee reviews climate related risks,

opportunities and initiatives. The Sustainability Committee

meets four times per year and reports to the Board’s ESG

Committee. The membership of the Committee includes, among

others, the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Head

of Sustainability and Environmental Engineer. This provides a

diversity of thought, ensuring that climate related risks and

opportunities are properly identified and considered.

The Sustainability Committee is also represented on the Risk

Management Committee which implement’s the Company’s Risk

Management Framework and reports to the Board’s Audit and

Risk Committee. This ensures that (although not subject to

external audit) risks identified by the Sustainability Committee

are subject to the same level of scrutiny as other types of financial

and non-financial risk.

TCFD Report 2022
TCFD Objective:

Disclose the actual and potential impacts of

climate-related risks and opportunities on the

organisation’s businesses, strategy, and

financial planning where such information is

material.

TCFD Requirement:

a) Describe the climate-related risks and

opportunities the organisation has identified

over the short, medium, and long term.

b) Describe the impact of climate-related

risks and opportunities on the organisation’s

businesses, strategy, and financial planning.

c) Describe the resilience of the

organisation’s strategy, taking into

consideration different climate-related

scenarios, including a 2°C or lower scenario.

a) Describe the climate-related risks and

opportunities the organisation has identified over

the short, medium, and long term.

For the purposes of classifying risks and opportunities Argosy has

adopted the TCFD’s classification of physical and transitional

risks and timeframes of within three years for the short term,

within 10 years for the medium term and longer than 10 years for

the long term. Physical and transitional risks are outlined below.

Physical risks

Physical risks are identified in the property strategy for each of

Argosy’s 53 property assets. Argosy considers the nature of the

risks to which its assets could potentially be exposed are:


direct damage from inundation or severe weather events in the

long term; and


increased temperature causing increased demand on

buildings services in the long term, particularly air-

conditioning; and rising sea levels in the long term.

Rising sea levels could possibly lead to significant asset value

impairment due to coastal storm inundation. Several of Argosy’s

buildings are located close to the waterfront in both Auckland and

Wellington. As a result, the potential for rising sea levels

represents a possible physical risk.

Auckland and Wellington Councils model coastal-storm

inundation from 1 in 100 year events based on current sea level

and a projected sea level rise of up to one metre. This information

indicates that Argosy’s assets will not be materially affected by

coastal storm inundation. These long-term risks remain under

review.

No short or medium-term physical risks have been identified.

Transitional risks

Argosy has identified transitional risks and opportunities based

on assumptions about Government policy and the expectations of

its occupiers, investors and other stakeholders. These include

costs to meet building certification and climate change-related

reporting requirements and potential obsolescence of building

services.

Such transitional risks are expected to arise in the medium to long

term. While these costs represent a risk to affected assets, they

also represent an opportunity to the extent that Argosy can meet

stakeholder requirements. The attention paid to transitional

climate related risks and opportunities by Government,

occupiers, investors and other stakeholders has grown markedly

in recent years and it is expected that in New Zealand these risks

and opportunities will be influenced by the final report issued by

the Climate Change Commission in June 2021 as well as the

Government’s carbon budgets and wider policy response to

climate change.

Argosy is considering the risks and opportunities suggested by the

Commission’s final report issued in June 2021. Argosy expects

that it will be well placed to mitigate risks and benefit from

opportunities.

Strategy

Argosy Property Limited

b) Describe the impact of climate-related risks and
opportunities on the organisation’s businesses,

strategy, and financial planning.

Argosy is committed to managing and reducing the impact of its

operations on the environment, including through climate

change. Our environmental strategy reflects our ambition to

address environmental issues by creating well designed, vibrant

and sustainable workplaces for today and into the future. We

believe that green buildings have the potential to provide several

key business benefits including:


lower operating costs;


higher occupancy;


higher value;


improved worker productivity and occupant health and well-

being;


lower regulatory risk.

Argosy has a sustainability strategy which applies to all areas of

its business. The most observable impact of climate-related risks

has been the drive for Argosy and its stakeholders to obtain

certifications in relation to the refurbishment or construction (i.e.

Green Star ratings) and ongoing operation (i.e. NabersNZ ratings)

of its buildings. These certifications provide evidence of reduced

emissions from Argosy’s buildings in accordance with

internationally recognised standards which help reduce the

carbon footprint of Argosy and its occupiers. This drive toward

green certified buildings is reflected in Argosy’s financial planning

as well as its plans for acquisitions, developments and disposals.

The development of green certified buildings has also provided

Argosy with an opportunity to diversify its funding through Green

Bonds. At the date of this report, Argosy has funding of

$325 million from Green Bonds supported by existing and

planned green certified buildings valued at $607 million.

Argosy does not expect any material effect from physical climate

related risks. However, as noted above, the potential impact of

long-term risks remains under review. Argosy has recently

commissioned natural hazard loss modelling to assess the impact

of physical climate change risks on its portfolio, for insurance

purposes.

c) Describe the resilience of the organisation’s

strategy, taking into consideration different climate-

related scenarios, including a 2°C or lower scenario.

Argosy has a resilient portfolio that is diversified by sector, tenant

and location. This reduces risk to severe climate change induced

events. Argosy does not expect to suffer material direct effects

from a 2°C or lower scenario and considers its portfolio resilient

to physical impacts.

While there is the potential for increased demands on building

services, particularly air-conditioning systems, due to increased

temperatures, Argosy does not expect the increased cost to be

material, particularly as this will likely be mitigated by the

introduction of more efficient technologies to address transitional

risks.

Argosy has been preparing its portfolio of property assets for

progressive certification, starting with the 5 Green Star Office

Built rating obtained for the redevelopment of Te Puni Kōkiri

House at 143 Lambton Quay, Wellington. Since then, Argosy has

obtained Green Star ratings on a further 4 buildings and has

NabersNZ ratings on 4 other buildings. Argosy’s 8-14 Willis

Street/360 Lambton Quay development, which is nearing

completion, will also have a Green Star rating.

Argosy expects that, without any anticipated physical impacts,

and with the progressive certification of buildings in its portfolio,

its business will be resilient to risks from climate change.

However, Argosy will also undertake scenario analysis to identify

and interrogate climate-related risks and opportunities.

Argosy Property Limited

TCFD Report 2022
TCFD Objective:

Disclose how the organisation identifies,

assesses, and manages climate-related

risks.

TCFD Requirement:

a) Describe the organisation’s processes for

identifying and assessing climate-related

risks.

b) Describe the organisation’s processes for

managing climate-related risks.

c) Describe how processes for identifying,

assessing, and managing climate-related

risks are integrated into the organisation’s

overall risk management.

a) Describe the organisation’s processes for

identifying and assessing climate-related risks.

Argosy identifies and assesses climate-related risk through its

Risk Management Policy and Framework as well as

Management’s Sustainability Committee who identify and assess

climate-related risks.

The Sustainability Committee consults with the Property Council

and other industry bodies focused on climate-related policy and

building certification.

Argosy has recently commissioned natural hazard risk modelling

to model the impact of physical climate change risks on its

portfolio, for insurance purposes.

b) Describe the organisation’s processes for

managing climate-related risks.

Argosy considers that material climate-related risk could arise

from transitional risks which may result in a mismatch between

its portfolio and requirements of occupiers, investors and other

stakeholders. To manage these risks Argosy assesses the

suitability of its buildings against the expected requirements of

its stakeholders and makes acquisition, development and

divestment decisions to ensure that buildings in its portfolio are

fit for purpose.

c) Describe how processes for identifying,

assessing, and managing climate-related risks are

integrated into the organisation’s overall risk

management.

Argosy includes climate-related risks in its Risk Register

maintained in accordance with its Risk Management Policy and

Framework which is overseen by the Board’s Audit and Risk

Committee. The composition and structure of Management and

Board Committees (outlined above) ensures that climate-related

risks identified by the Board’s ESG Committee and Management’s

Sustainability Committee (although not subject to external audit)

are scrutinised at the same level as other financial and

nonfinancial risks.

Risk Management

Argosy Property Limited

TCFD Objective:
Disclose the metrics and targets used to

assess and manage relevant climate-related

risks and opportunities where such

information is material.

TCFD Requirement:

a) Disclose the metrics used by the

organisation to assess climate related risks

and opportunities in line with its strategy and

risk management process.

b) Disclose Scope 1, Scope 2, and, if

appropriate, Scope 3 greenhouse gas (GHG)

emissions, and the related risks.

c) Describe the targets used by the

organisation to manage climate-related risks

and opportunities and performance against

targets.

a) Disclose the metrics used by the organisation to

assess climate related risks and opportunities in

line with its strategy and risk management process.

Argosy collects and reports on its scope 1, 2 and 3 carbon

emissions.

b) Disclose Scope 1, Scope 2, and, if appropriate,

Scope 3 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and the

related risks.

c) Describe the targets used by the organisation to

manage climate-related risks and opportunities and

performance against targets.

Argosy is exposed to transitional risks arising from emergent

tenant and investor preferences for certified energy efficient

buildings with reduced emissions. As outlined above, Argosy is

managing these risks by obtaining internationally recognised

certifications for its buildings, such as Green Star and NabersNZ

ratings. These certifications provide evidence of energy efficiency

and reduced emissions for Argosy’s buildings.

Obtaining certifications for Argosy’s buildings has also provided

opportunities beyond mitigating transitional risks. These include

attracting tenants who require such certifications and investment

through Argosy’s green bonds.

Argosy itself has received a net carbon zero certification from

Toitū. This reflects tenant and investor expectations of increased

energy efficiency and reduced carbon emissions from Argosy’s

operations.
