connected
For nearly three decades,
Kiwi Property has invested
in and developed some of
New Zealand’s best property
assets. We can look back
with pride on much of what
we have achieved, but there’s
plenty still to do.
Now we’re drawing on all our
experience and expertise to take
us into the future.
We are creating tomorrow’s
communities, today. Spaces that
inspire Kiwis to connect with
each other and the world around
them. Where living, working,
shopping and entertainment
intersect seamlessly. And people,
businesses, and the environment
all thrive. We call that mixed-use.
Right now, we’re building a
world-class property asset at
Sylvia Park in Auckland, featuring
an outstanding line-up of retail,
office and New Zealand’s first
major build-to-rent apartment
complex. Our extensive Sylvia Park
landholding offers a unique ability
to enhance the site over time,
developing a place of enduring
value and appeal.
We’re also poised to create a
Green Star Community at Drury,
which will set a new standard for
sustainability, urban design and
transit-oriented development.
And we’re shaping up to transform
the skyline of Auckland’s inner-
western suburbs with a potential
25-level mixed-use tower at
LynnMall that will deliver
unparalleled convenience and
proximity to public transport.
We’re excited and energised by
where our commitment to
creating connected communities
will lead and what it means for our
shareholders, our tenants and the
people who will call our assets
home. By reimagining places and
bringing them to life we are
securing Kiwi Property’s future
as an innovator and attractive
investment opportunity.

Dear shareholders,
While COVID-19 continued to
dominate the news headlines over
the past 12 months, Kiwi Property
has come through the year in
good shape, making significant
progress on the delivery of its
mixed-use strategy.
The Company produced a
strong operating performance
in the 2022 financial year (FY22),
with increases in key metrics
including sales, rents, profit, asset
values and adjusted funds from
operations. This pleasing outcome
will enable us to pay a total cash
dividend of 5.60 cents per share
(cps), up almost 9% on FY21.
More details of Kiwi Property’s
financial result can be found in
the Chief Executive Officer’s
report, which begins on page 10.
Building strategic
momentum
Four years ago, we embarked
on a journey to diversify our
portfolio, decrease our retail
exposure and create thriving,
mixed-use communities at key
metropolitan centres.
We knew that by bringing together
the best of retail, office and
residential assets on each site,
we’d diversify our income sources,
drive valuation uplift at our core
properties and create enduring
assets where Kiwis want to live,
work, shop and play. We also
understood the process would
take time and that there would be
challenges along the way.
Over the ensuing period, we’ve
been proven right on each of those
fronts, and today, Kiwi Property
has significant strategic
momentum and an exciting
pipeline of opportunities ahead.
Maintaining strategic
momentum
We began construction of a
second office building at Sylvia
Park in November 2021, furthering
the diversification of our asset
portfolio. This development,
known as 3 Te Kehu Way,
signals the next important
step towards the creation of a
thriving commercial hub, and
the continued evolution of
Sylvia Park into a world-class
mixed-use asset.
3 Te Kehu Way aims to capitalise
on the high levels of interest
in office space at Sylvia Park.
The development has been
designed with flexible working
and the specialist requirements
of medical practitioners in mind,
enabling us to effectively cater
to this important market.
Despite the challenging leasing
environment, 30% of the office
space in the building is now
committed, with strong interest
in the remaining area.
Becoming a leader in
build-to-rent
Around half of Aucklanders over
the age of 15 currently live in rental
accommodation, with this number
expected to rise to around 60%
by 2043.

A lack of quality rental stock and
strong demand have pushed up
house prices and created fierce
competition for housing.
Build-to-rent (BTR) has the
potential to play an important role
in helping address this imbalance,
offering residents the flexibility of
renting, coupled with secure
lease terms, professional on-site
management and transparent
costs. The asset class is also
attractive to Kiwi Property,
helping to broaden our existing
asset base and provide a stable,
low-risk revenue stream and
robust capital growth.
Our ambition is to become a
leader in this sector, with our
mixed-use assets likely to include
a prominent residential presence
going forward. Construction of
New Zealand’s first major BTR
development is already underway
at Sylvia Park, with the
295-apartment complex likely to
begin renting in early 2024. More
information about the
transformation of Sylvia Park,
including the 3 Te Kehu Way and
BTR projects, is available on page
14 of this Annual Report.
Land creates
competitive advantage
Our large strategic landholdings at
Sylvia Park, LynnMall, The Base
and Drury are a source of major
competitive advantage for our
business. Unlike many other
property entities, we don’t need to
compete for new sites or assets in
order to grow. With mixed-use
assets that span almost 125
hectares, we have the unique
ability to focus on improving our
existing properties for years
to come.
In many ways, this makes us the
master of our own destiny, able to
move forward with new
developments at our own pace, in
line with demand, funding and the
broader operating environment.
This is particularly important in the
current environment, where supply
chains are being disrupted and
input costs are on the rise. Our
landholdings give us the flexibility
to wait for conditions to normalise
before proceeding, or to move
quickly when specific
opportunities present themselves,
as is the case with BTR.
At Sylvia Park, for example,
around half of our 34-hectare
landholding has capacity for further
intensification, providing scope for
us to potentially build up to 1,200
BTR apartments, five office towers,
a hotel, and around 16,400 square
metres of large format retail, over
time. Not only does the scale of
our landholding give us the scope
to undertake this exciting
potential future development,
it also provided the flexibility to
conditionally sell 3.2 hectares of
land to IKEA in November 2021,
where we have the ambition
of them building their first
New Zealand flagship store.
Creating a clear
funding pathway
Kiwi Property’s current
development pipeline is one of
the most exciting in our history.
We have a unique range of
opportunities ahead that span
both asset classes and locations,
positioning the Company for
significant growth in the future.
Funding this pipeline is a key
consideration and not without
its challenges. In order to be
successful over the long term we
will need to be selective about
what we pursue and when we
pursue it. We will also require a
range of funding mechanisms,
making the second pillar of our
strategy – growing with third
party capital – particularly
important in FY23.
With this in mind, following
detailed analysis to identify our
preferred initial funds
management project, we have
begun the process of establishing
a standalone CBD office co-
investment platform. We’re
pleased to be moving ahead with
this important initiative, which we
expect to attract strong interest.
We also have a range of other
mechanisms available to fund our
development pipeline, including
the establishment of investment
platforms across one or more of
our mixed-use properties, such as
Sylvia Park, LynnMall or Drury. In
parallel, our capital recycling
programme continues, including
the Northlands sales process. We
have temporarily withdrawn The
Plaza from the market while we
conduct seismic assessments of
the centre. While this delay is
disappointing, we believe it is the
right move and will ultimately
enable a more certain transaction.
“ Our large strategic landholdings
at Sylvia Park, LynnMall, The Base
and Drury are a source of major
competitive advantage.”

Governance
We are living and working in an
incredibly complex period. Factors
such as COVID-19, rising inflation,
the war in Ukraine and disruption
in the construction sector have
combined to create an uncertain
operating environment. During
times such as this, the Board and
I are particularly conscious of
both our role in helping the
business navigate risk and the
importance of maintaining the
highest standards of governance.
We are committed to effectively
representing the interests of
Kiwi Property’s shareholders,
with a focus on continuous
improvement and enhanced
transparency.
This viewpoint has been
instrumental in the preparation of
this year’s Annual Report and the
increased levels of disclosure
around areas such as executive
compensation. On page 90 you
will find a comprehensive
Remuneration Report, including a
fulsome breakdown of the CEO’s
salary and incentives, and the
performance goals used to
determine his compensation.
The establishment of the
Environmental, Social and
Governance (ESG) Committee
two years ago has ensured steady
progress towards the ambitions
and specific targets set out in
our Sustainability Strategy. Our
committee works closely with the
ESG Leadership Team to discuss,
identify and respond to
sustainability related issues and
opportunities. Our progress is
detailed in our standalone
Sustainability Report, available for
download from our website.
Delivering for
shareholders
While the Company delivered a
strong operating performance in
FY22, its share price has not met
expectations. Kiwi Property is a
robust business, however over the
past year, the market hasn’t
recognised what we believe to be
the true value of the Company,
its assets or the pipeline of
opportunities we have ahead.
Some of this mispricing is likely
due to sector and macroeconomic
factors beyond our control. In
FY23 though, we will continue to
focus squarely on those that are,
such as delivering on our strategy,
unlocking funding, and intensively
managing our properties.
We are committed to creating
value for our shareholders,
including driving an uplift in the
price of Kiwi Property stock and
delivering sustainable dividend
growth. As such, we are targeting
a cash dividend of no less than
5.70 cps for FY23, based on
current market conditions and
barring unforeseen circumstances.
Outlook
The 2023 financial year has the
potential to be a decisive one for
the Company as we build further
momentum in the intensification of
our mixed-use assets, move
forward with the launch of our
CBD office co-investment
platform and make substantive
progress on the Sylvia Park BTR,
and 3 Te Kehu Way developments.
We’ve worked hard over recent
years to transform Kiwi Property
into a creator of thriving mixed-
use communities. As we head into
the new financial year, the benefits
from our transformation efforts
move ever closer, unlocking
exciting opportunities for the
Company and its stakeholders.
Thank you for your continued
support.

Introduction
Kiwi Property achieved a robust
annual result for the year ended
31 March 2022 and accelerated
its transition into a creator of
connected communities.
Although COVID-19 had an
inevitable impact on the Company
through the financial year, our
focus on maintaining strict
operational discipline and asset
management enabled us to
mitigate the effects of the
pandemic and end FY22 in a solid
financial position.
Strong financial
performance
Net profit after tax was $224.3
million, up 14.1% on the prior year,
driven by a $120.5 million or 3.5%
gain in the fair value of our
diversified asset portfolio.
Pleasingly, this valuation uplift was
broad-based, with The Base, Vero
Centre, Westgate Lifestyle, Centre
Place North and Drury all
performing well. Sylvia Park
Precinct (comprising Sylvia Park
Shopping Centre, Sylvia Park
Lifestyle, ANZ Raranga, Sylvia Park
BTR, 3 Te Kehu Way and a number
of adjoining properties) continues
to go from strength to strength,
highlighting the strategic value of
our diversification agenda. As at
31 March 2022, Kiwi Property’s
property portfolio was valued at
$3.6 billion, placing it amongst the
largest in the country.
Kiwi Property’s net rental income
rose 7.8% to $187.1 million in FY22,
despite the headwinds caused by
the pandemic, with delays to the
sale process of Northlands and
The Plaza offsetting the significant
cost of providing $17.4 million in
rent relief to our hardest hit
tenants. Operating profit before
tax was also up, growing 7.3% on
the prior year to $124.8 million, a
particularly pleasing result given
the challenging economic climate.
Equally positive was the 4.2%
rental increase on new leases and
rent reviews, demonstrating the
strong continued demand for
space at our assets. Although the
threat of Omicron prompted a
reduction in visitor numbers to our
assets in 2022, average spend
jumped significantly, resulting in a
6.7% increase in total sales for the
year. In parallel, occupancy across
our office and mixed-use
portfolios was 99.8% at year end.
These trends highlight the
resilience of our assets and the
flight to quality in the property
sector, which Kiwi Property is
ideally placed to capitalise on.
Employment and administration
expenses rose almost 12% in FY22.
There are good reasons for this.
While the Company maintained
tight financial control throughout
the year, we have made a number
of strategic investments in data
and digital technology that will
support our growth, and the
opportunities that come from it.
The upfront cost of this new
infrastructure is significant,
however the tools we are
implementing will help drive
efficiency, unlock business
insights, enhance our customers’
experience and manage our assets
more effectively.
“ As at 31 March 2022, Kiwi Property’s
property portfolio was valued at
$3.6 billion, placing it amongst the
largest in the country.”

Work is currently underway on a
range of digital solutions that will
help empower tenant performance,
including a bespoke ‘customer
hub’ and the implementation of a
new enterprise reporting platform
(ERP). This once in a decade
investment will help support
Kiwi Property’s growth ambitions,
particularly as we extend our BTR
and funds management activities.
Delivering through
disruption
While the pandemic has been
problematic for many in the retail
sector, Sylvia Park has continued
to deliver growth in sales,
occupancy and rents, reinforcing
the asset’s standing as the
country’s favourite shopping
centre. Despite the logistical
challenges caused by border
closures and alert level
restrictions, we’ve worked with
iconic retailers such as Culture
Kings and JD Sports to deliver a
series of ground-breaking store
openings, creating a thriving new
athleisure precinct at the heart of
the centre.
During the year we also made
significant progress on our
ambition to transform LynnMall
into a thriving mixed-use
community, obtaining resource
consent for an exciting 25-storey
tower that is set to change the
New Lynn landscape. Integrating
ground floor retail, three
commercial office levels and 245
build-to-rent apartments, the
development will connect directly
into the existing shopping centre,
offering residents unparalleled
convenience and a range of retail,
entertainment and transport
options virtually on their doorstep.
Elsewhere, our Drury Private Plan
Change was approved in May
2022, paving the way for the
creation of a major Green Star
Community. The successful
application will unlock
development at our 53-hectare
site, which is set to be the location
for the new Drury Town Centre.
We intend to create a thriving
mixed-use asset that will become
a hub for the 60,000 people who
are expected to move into the
area over the next 25 years. Drury
will be the third Auckland
Metropolitan Centre zoned
location in our portfolio (out of 11),
alongside Sylvia Park and New
Lynn, offering an exciting range of
future possibilities. An earthworks
consent has been issued by
Auckland Council and this work is
now underway. To read more
about our development at Drury
go to page 18 of this report.
We’re focused on proceeding
with the Drury and LynnMall
developments at the optimum
time and in the case of each
project, will ensure input costs,
market conditions and the
macroeconomic climate are
conducive, before moving
forward with construction.
Taking a long-term view
Over the past two years we’ve
made a range of important
decisions about how best to keep
our people safe, support our
tenants, and complete
developments in a disrupted
environment. Although our
resilience has been tested, from
the outset we have been clear that
the disruptions caused by the
pandemic would not distract us
from delivering on our strategy.
Staying focused on what we can
control, achieve and influence
has enabled us to take a long-
term view of our sector – and
our place in it.
That’s crucial given current
conditions. The impact of
Omicron, labour shortages, rising
inflation, and continued supply
chain disruptions have all created
a climate of volatility that unsettles
markets and makes economic
forecasting difficult. We are taking
current disruption into account,
but the strength of our strategy is
that it is built on certainties – the
first of which, as the Chair
outlined, lies in our large strategic
landholding.
There is also certainty in our
transition from a retail-oriented
property owner and developer to
our ever-increasing focus on
mixed-use community creation.
As Sylvia Park demonstrates,
intensifying our strategic assets to
include retail, office and residential
helps drive valuation uplift across
the entire site, while promoting a
more diversified revenue stream
and faster rate of growth.
Mixed-use also helps reduce
operational risk by encouraging
a broad customer base.
Kiwi Property counts a wide
range of government departments,
banks, law firms and financial
services companies, as well
as large format and specialty
retailers, among its line-up of
tenants. Across our portfolio,
over half our income comes
from essential services and
everyday essentials, such
as supermarkets, pharmacies
and department stores,
providing substantial income
resilience, even during COVID-19
lockdown periods.

Stepping up on
sustainability
Sustainability has been at the
heart of our business for 20 years
and today, our Environmental,
Social and Governance (ESG)
performance is amongst the
best in our sector. Full details of
the Company’s delivery against
our Sustainability Strategy are
available in our standalone 2022
Sustainability Report, available on
our website. The comprehensive
document outlines our ESG
performance over the past 12
months, including our
achievement against the three
pillars of our strategy: Places,
People and Partnerships, and
the actions we’re taking to
mitigate climate risk.
This year, we continued to
make significant progress
against our aspirational goal to
become net carbon negative in
our operations by 2030 and have
now reduced our greenhouse
gas emissions by 60% compared
to our 2012 baseline.
Reaching the target won’t be easy,
but it’s the right thing to do for both
our current and next generation
of stakeholders. We’ve recently
announced plans to create
New Zealand’s largest rooftop
solar power installation at Sylvia
Park, capable of producing
enough electricity annually to
power the average household for
over 200 years or charge over
60,000 electric vehicles.
We believe strongly that we will
only achieve enduring success if
the communities we operate in do
as well. To this end, we’ve recently
begun working with the Mental
Health Foundation and look
forward to collaborating on
initiatives to improve Kiwis’
wellbeing, including bringing the
highly regarded Pink Shirt Day
campaign to life at our assets.
In July 2021, we also undertook
a successful $150m Green Bond
issue. The oversubscribed
offer highlights the growth of
sustainable finance and the level of
market support for Kiwi Property’s
sustainability performance, both
of which place the Company in
good stead for future debt raising
activity, if required.
Subsequent to balance date,
we also further diversified our
debt facilities by introducing
MUFG into our banking panel,
providing access to an additional
$100 million of debt facilities on
three, four and five year terms.
Outlook
Kiwi Property’s robust financial
performance and strong delivery
against strategy in FY22 have set
the platform for an exciting year
ahead. We have made significant
strides on our ambition to intensify
our mixed-use assets and bring
build-to-rent to life, starting at
Sylvia Park.
In FY23, we will look to broaden
that focus to Drury and LynnMall,
as well as striving to ignite the
second pillar of our strategy –
growing with third-party capital.
While COVID-19 may continue to
be a consideration going forward,
we are squarely looking to the
future, with a commitment to
creating value for our shareholders
and other stakeholders, and a
focus on creating connected
communities.

Sylvia Park’s evolution
into a world-class
mixed-use community
is picking up pace.
Following the successful
completion of the shopping
centre’s 20,000 square metre
Level 1 expansion, the next phase
of Sylvia Park’s ambitious
development programme has
begun, marking the start of what
could be one of the most
transformative periods in the
asset’s history. We’re excited to be
moving forward with plans to
evolve Sylvia Park from a retail-
centric destination into a thriving,
urban village where people can
live, work, shop and play.
In late 2021, construction of
New Zealand’s first major BTR
development started at Lynton
Road, near the site’s northern
boundary. The $221 million
project will feature 295 residential
apartments spread across three
separate buildings, varying in scale
up to 12 storeys high. Based on the
current site masterplan, there’s
potential for us to build as many
as 1,200 BTR apartments
at Sylvia Park over the next 10
years, establishing Kiwi Property
as a leader in this exciting new
asset class.
BTR is set to challenge renting’s
status quo in this country, putting
more control and certainty in
residents’ hands. Our residential
proposition will feature flexible
long-term leases, stable rents,
professional on-site management
and service standards on par
with many hotel complexes.
The development will include
an array of amenities, such as a
rooftop terrace and barbeque
area, gym, co-working spaces
and residents’ lounge, all designed
to foster a sense of community
and connection.
Elsewhere at Sylvia Park, we’ve
begun development of an
attractive new office building at
3 Te Kehu Way, which aims to
capitalise on the success of the
ANZ Raranga tower and marks the
next step in our journey to create a
dynamic commercial hub at the
precinct. The six-level building will
be ideally suited to the increasing
number of tenants seeking hub
and spoke office networks.
Featuring outstanding amenities,
flexible working configurations,
infrastructure geared to the
specialist requirements of medical
services and targeting a 6 Green
Star rating, 3 Te Kehu Way is an
exciting proposition.
In September 2021, we extended
our landholding at Sylvia Park with
the purchase of a 7,144 square
metre site directly adjacent to
Sylvia Park Lifestyle occupied by
the City Impact Church. The
acquisition provides a range of
future development opportunities
that take advantage of the
location’s sunny northern slope
and sea views. Choices could
potentially include BTR
apartments, office towers or
additional large format retail.
“ As both the owner and developer
of Sylvia Park, we’re in a powerful
position to ensure each new project
aligns to and enhances our vision
for the precinct, as well as optimising
the asset’s long-term income
generation potential.”

As both the owner and developer
of Sylvia Park, we’re in a powerful
position to ensure each new
project aligns to and enhances
our vision for the precinct, as well
as optimising the asset’s long-term
income generation potential.
It also enables us to prioritise
outstanding placemaking and
the adoption of international
best practice in terms of asset
design and operations, helping to
create an enduring asset that will
deliver value for our customers,
tenants, and shareholders for years
to come.
This approach is also important
when it comes to working with
multinational retailers considering
opening a store in New Zealand.
An example is the recent
conditional agreement to sell IKEA
3.2 hectares of land at Sylvia Park,
marking an important step
towards our ambition for the
iconic retailer to have a presence
on the site. The deal paves the
way for the creation of a
complementary 6,430 square
metre large format retail centre
and home and living precinct.
Maintaining Sylvia Park’s
accessibility will continue to be a
priority for Kiwi Property in the
years ahead. The asset is
strategically connected to
Auckland’s Southern Motorway,
and is well-served by around
5,000 free carparks. In addition,
the centre features a bus
interchange and train station,
offering direct public transport
connectivity to the Auckland CBD
that departs approximately every
10 minutes in peak times.

bringing together the best
of sustainability, transit-
oriented development and
urban design.”

Sustainability has been at the heart
of our business for 20 years and in
that time we’ve achieved a number
of exciting milestones, including
receiving an A rating from the
Carbon Disclosure Project in
2020. We’re proud to again be
leading from the front on
sustainability, this time at Drury,
where we’re planning to create a
major Green Star Community.
Only developments that meet the
highest standards of liveability,
economic prosperity,
environmental performance and
innovation are awarded this
standard. Achieving the Green Star
Community rating isn’t just about
our commitment to doing well by
doing good though – it’s a signal
to the town’s future residents that
it has been built with the next
generation in mind.
According to the Drury-Opaheke
Structure Plan, the region
is ultimately expected to
accommodate 25,000 new
homes and a population of 60,000
people, making it around the same
size as Napier. Drury’s strategic
importance is highlighted by the
Government’s commitment of
approximately $2.8 billion to fund
infrastructure in the area, including
the extension of State Highway 1
from Papakura to Drury and the
enhancement of the rail corridor.
Kiwi Property’s 53-hectare site at
Drury has been designated as the
location of the future town centre.
Our ownership of this large
strategic landholding puts us in
a unique position to shape the
character, quality and design of
Drury’s urban heart, enabling
the creation of a thriving mixed-
use asset. Great placemaking
will sit at the core of the
development, which will feature
around 10 hectares of new parks,
cycleways and walking paths, all
designed to foster a vibrant and
connected community.
Our landholding sits adjacent to
the site of the proposed Drury
Central train station and electrified
rail link, which will serve the local
area and support the creation of a
modern transit-oriented
development. With Drury’s central
plaza less than a five minute walk
from the station, around half of
those commuters to the city are
ultimately expected to use public
transport, significantly reducing
the need for private vehicle use.
This approach will help keep the
town congestion free, while also
reducing its emissions profile.
By building Drury from the grass
roots, we’re able to incorporate
the sustainable qualities one would
expect from a Green Star
community in our development,
such as stormwater recycling and
rainwater harvesting. We’re also
planning to make extensive use of
solar energy and plant thousands
of native trees as part of the
Hingaia Stream restoration project.
All our buildings will target a
minimum five Green Star rating.
Drury will be more than an
attractive place to live and play,
with potential to become a
significant economic hub between
Auckland and Hamilton. The
developments being undertaken
by Kiwi Property, Oyster Capital
and Fulton Hogan are expected
“ Drury represents a rare
opportunity to create
a community from the
ground up. The location
has been identified as one
of just five urban growth
areas in the region and
is ultimately expected to
feature 25,000 new homes
and a population of 60,000
people, making it around
the same size as Napier.”

to create around 7,000 jobs
between them, while the industrial
park being built at Drury South
is set to generate additional
employment opportunities.
A range of office buildings are
planned for Kiwi Property’s town
centre, to be built in line with
population growth, while a
possible future regional medical
facility would stimulate additional
growth at Drury in the years ahead.
The green-light to begin work at
Drury follows three years of
intense preparation and effort to
obtain approval for Kiwi Property’s
Private Plan Change application.
Our success in this process
highlights the quality of the
proposed development and the
scale of its anticipated benefit to
the region. The Stage 1 earthworks
now underway are expected to be
finished by late 2023 or early
2024, with commercial, large
format retail and residential homes
set to follow in line with demand,
funding and supportive conditions.

Getting on-board the
flight to quality in
commercial property
While COVID-19 impacted many parts
of New Zealand’s economy in FY22 it
also prompted a flight to quality in the
property sector, as tenants sought out
the best offices and most productive
retail space. Fortunately, quality is one of
the hallmarks of our property portfolio.
Omicron saw many people work
from home over recent months,
however high-quality, amenity-rich
CBD office buildings have
continued to attract strong
demand among corporate and
public sector tenants. In parallel,
hub and spoke office networks
have risen in popularity as
employers respond to their
workers’ calls for more flexibility
and reduced travel times. Leading
shopping centres such as Sylvia
Park bounced back quickly post
lockdown, fuelled by pent-up retail
demand, while large format retail
came through COVID as one of
the asset classes more resistant to
pandemic related headwinds.
Kiwi Property’s strategy, which is
based on intensifying our mixed-
use assets, growing with third
party capital and empowering
the success of our customers,
has positioned us well through
the pandemic. Our investment
portfolio maintained an occupancy
rate of 99.8% in FY22, while rental
uplift of 4.2% was achieved on
new leases and rent reviews,
continuing their upward trajectory
from recent years. Premium office
assets such as the Vero Centre
highlighted the flight to quality
accelerated by COVID-19, with
the landmark building achieving
record rents.
The Company’s diversified
portfolio and focus on reducing
our retail exposure helped spread
our COVID risk, however we
weren’t entirely sheltered from the
pandemic. We provided just over
$17 million of rent relief to our
hardest hit tenants in FY22,
sharing a fair proportion of
COVID-19’s financial impact.
Offering these abatements was
the right thing to do. Each of
our customers is a vital part
of Kiwi Property’s stakeholder
ecosystem and an important cog
in the wider economy, providing
direct and indirect employment.
Supporting our tenants helped
protect their businesses,
safeguard jobs and maintain
productive assets

Meeting the need
Regardless of restrictions or
lockdowns, everyone needs the
basics. With customer shopping
behaviour often driven more by
needs than wants, during the
pandemic, the strong retail centres
capable of supplying everything
from shoes to groceries, and
medicine to microwaves, often
had the edge because of their
scale, safe environment and
easy access.
Shopping patterns continued to
evolve in FY22, with customers
often researching goods online
before heading out with a list to
shop in person. While online sales
were strong during lockdowns,
supply chain bottlenecks and a
strong desire among Kiwis to get
back to ‘normal’ saw a surge in
sales at many physical stores
once those restrictions eased.
Even where Omicron slowed foot
traffic to some centres, consumers
are regaining the confidence to
return to shopping as a social
activity. This will benefit food and
beverage tenants, in particular,
whose recovery was slowed by
COVID-19 restrictions.
Going forward, we expect retail to
become an increasingly omni-
channel experience, with online
and offline shopping fulfilling
distinct but equally important roles
in a customer’s sales journey –
from awareness through to action.
Kiwi Property is well equipped to
respond to this trend.

Like attracts like
The flight to quality in retail
property was highlighted by the
number of prominent international
chains that launched new stores at
Kiwi Property centres over the
past year, despite the logistical
hurdles created by COVID-19.
Nowhere has this been more
apparent than at Sylvia Park,
where iconic retailers, Culture
Kings and JD Sports, opened
flagship locations, creating the
core of an exciting new urban and
athleisure precinct. In 2021, around
13%
1
of all spending at Sylvia Park
was by visitors to the city,
highlighting its position as a tourism
attraction for both inbound and
domestic travellers. As the country
continues to put Omicron behind
it, we look forward to this number
continuing to grow, as even more
Kiwis take the opportunity to
come to the country’s favourite
shopping centre.
The new world of work
Quality has also proved to be a
differentiator in a market where
some commentators initially
questioned the role of the office in
a post-COVID world. While the
pandemic has seen thousands
working from home, after more
than two years making do in a
spare bedroom, many people are
eagerly looking forward to getting
back to the office. Hybrid working
models are evolving to deliver the
best of remote working, overlaid
with the culture and collaboration
benefits that can only be found in
a physical environment.
In the CBD, offices with high
quality amenities are still
attracting large corporates,
law firms and accounting
practices, while Government
departments are setting
increasingly high sustainability
standards. Kiwi Property’s office
portfolio delivers on these fronts,
promoting strong continued
demand from private and public
sector tenants alike.
One of the more interesting trends
accelerated by COVID-19 has
been the rise of hub and spoke
office configurations, where
businesses are augmenting their
inner-city locations with smaller
suburban offices. This approach
helps optimise lease costs, while
enabling employees to work
closer to home or to be more
convenient for the customers and
communities they serve. We’re in a
strong position to cater to hub and
spoke tenants in the Auckland
market, in particular, thanks to our
ability to offer office space in the
inner city as well as ANZ Raranga
at Sylvia Park, with 3 Te Kehu Way
set to follow.
In the CBD, offices with
high quality amenities
are still attracting large
corporates, law firms and
accounting practices, while
Government departments
are setting increasingly high
sustainability standards.

Annual Report 2022

1.1 Reporting entity
The consolidated financial statements are for Kiwi Property
Group Limited (Kiwi Property or the Company) and its controlled
entities (the Group). The Company is incorporated and
domiciled in New Zealand, is registered under the Companies
Act 1993 and is an FMC reporting entity for the purposes of
the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013. The Company is listed
with NZX Limited with its ordinary shares quoted on the NZX
Main Board and
fixed-rate green bonds quoted on the NZX
Debt Market.
The principal activity of the Group is to invest in New Zealand
real estate.
1.2 Basis of preparation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Practice
(GAAP) and the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013. They
comply with New Zealand Equivalents to International Financial
Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS) and other guidance as
issued by the External Reporting Board, as appropriate to
for-profit entities, and with International Financial Reporting
Standards (IFRS).
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on
the basis the Group is a going concern.
The consolidated financial statements are prepared on the
basis of historical cost, except where otherwise identified. The
functional and presentation currency used in the preparation of
the consolidated financial statements is New Zealand dollars.
Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to accord
with current year presentation.
1.3 Significant changes during the year
The financial position and performance of the Group was
affected by the following events and transactions during
the year:
COVID-19
global pandemic
New Zealand entered a nationwide Alert Level 4 lockdown
on 17 August 2021 due to new COVID-19 cases found
in the community. Auckland shifted to Alert Level 3 on
21 September 2021, while the rest of New Zealand shifted
to Alert Level 3 and Alert Level 2 on 31 August 2021 and
7 September 2021 respectively. During Alert Levels 3 and 4
the operations of many of the Group’s tenants were restricted
to varying degrees, and at Alert Level 2 businesses were able
to operate with restrictions remaining in place around social-
distancing and mass gatherings. On 2 December 2021, New
Zealand moved to the COVID-19 Protection Framework and the
associated traffic light settings. Under the red and orange traffic
lights, the Group's hospitality and close-proximity tenants were
able to operate with the use of vaccination passes, while retail
tenants were able to operate with limited restrictions, including
the wearing of face coverings.
The lockdowns resulted in the Group offering rental relief
across several of the Group’s tenants. This process remained
in progress at 31 March 2022 and expected rental relief which
was not finalised at balance date has been accrued. Rental
relief includes abatements for rental income payable for the
months of August 2021 to December 2021, and in some cases for
January 2022 to March 2022 following the move to the COVID-19
Protection Framework and the arrival of the Omicron variant
of COVID-19. Certain rental abatements have been accounted
for as lease
modifications under New Zealand Equivalents to
International Financial Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS), with
the change in lease payments amortised over the remaining
terms of the leases, while other concessions have been
recognised directly as a charge to the Consolidated Statement
of Comprehensive Income. Rental abatements incurred and
accrued relating to the lockdowns during the period were
$17.4 million on a gross basis, which included a charge to
the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income of
$4.3 million for year ended 31 March 2022.
On 3 November 2021, the Government amended the Property
Law Act to insert a clause into commercial leases requiring a
‘fair proportion’ of rent and operating expenses to be abated
where a tenant has been unable to fully conduct their business
in their premises due to the COVID-19 restrictions. The Group
considers that the abatements offered to tenants impacted by
the COVID-19 restrictions during the year represent a reduction
of a fair proportion of rent and operating expenses.
Investment property
During the year ended 31 March 2022, the Group acquired
property in Drury for $3.5 million and at Sylvia Park for
$35.3 million.
Joint venture
On 1 April 2021, the Group entered into a 50:50 joint venture with
Tainui Group Holdings (TGH) in respect of Centre Place North.
Under the terms of the agreement, the joint venture comprises
Centre Place North, 61-65 Bryce Street, 511-523 Victoria Street
and land at 10 Ward Street, with a value on 1 April 2021 of
$68.3 million. A new 100-year ground lease has been granted by
TGH, with rent pre-paid.

1.4 Group structure
Controlled entities
The Company has the following wholly owned subsidiaries:
•
Kiwi Property Centre Place Limited
•
Kiwi Property Holdings Limited
•
Kiwi Property Holdings No. 2 Limited
•
Kiwi Property Holdings No. 3 Limited
•
Kiwi Property Holdings No. 4 Limited
•
Kiwi Property Holdings No. 5 Limited
•
Kiwi Property Holdings No. 6 Limited
•
Kiwi Property Holdings No. 7 Limited
•
Kiwi Property Te Awa Limited
•
Sylvia Park Business Centre Limited
The Company has control over the trust fund operated by Pacific
Custodians (New Zealand) Limited as trustee for the Company's
long-term incentive (LTI) plan (for further details refer to note
3.6.4). The trust fund is consolidated as part of the Group.
Joint ventures
The Group holds a 50% interest in both The Base and The Centre
Place unincorporated joint ventures. The Group has determined
that its interests constitute a joint arrangement as the relevant
decisions about the properties require the unanimous consent
of both parties. The joint arrangements have been
classified as
joint operations on the basis that the parties have direct rights to
the assets and obligations for the liabilities relating to their share
of the properties in the normal course of business. The Group
recognises its share of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses
of the joint ventures.
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the Company
and the entities it controls up until the date control ceases. The
balances and effects of transactions between controlled entities
and the Company are eliminated in full.
1.5 New standards, amendments and
interpretations
The International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee
(IFRIC) published an agenda decision in March 2021 which was
ratified by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB)
in April 2021. The decision deals with specific circumstances
in relation to configuration and customisation costs incurred in
implementing Software-as-a-Service (SaaS). As a result, certain
costs which previously may have been capitalised now need to
be expensed to the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive
Income. The Group's accounting to date has been in line with the
requirements of this agenda decision, however, it is expected
that the future impact will be more material as the Group
undertakes digital transformation activities. There are no other
new accounting standards impacting the consolidated financial
statements for the financial year ended 31 March 2022. There are
no standards issued but not yet
effective that will have a material
impact on future financial periods.
1.6 Key judgements and estimates
In the process of applying the Group's accounting policies, a
number of judgements have been made and estimates of future
events applied. Judgements and estimates are found in the
following notes:

1.7 Accounting policies
Accounting policies that summarise the measurement bases
used and are relevant to an understanding of the consolidated
financial statements are provided throughout the notes to the
consolidated financial statements. Other relevant policies are
provided as follows:
Measurement of fair values
The Group classifies its fair value measurement using a fair
value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used
in making the measurements. The fair value hierarchy has the
following levels:
•
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for
identical assets or liabilities.
•
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level
1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly
(i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
•
Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on
observable market data (unobservable inputs).
The carrying amount of all financial assets and liabilities is
equivalent to their fair values apart from the fixed-rate green
bonds (refer to note 3.4.1 for further details on the fair value of
the fixed-rate green bonds).
Goods and Services Tax
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on
a Goods and Services Tax exclusive basis, with the exception
of receivables and payables which are inclusive of Goods and
Services Tax where relevant.
Property management income
Property management income is recognised over time as
performance obligations are satisfied in accordance with the
management contracts.

Recognition and measurement
The Group enters into property leases with tenants on its investment properties. The Group has determined that it retains all
significant risks and rewards of ownership of these properties and has therefore classified the leases as operating leases.
Rental income from those leases, including fixed rental increases, is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of
the lease.
Lease incentives offered to tenants as an inducement to enter into leases are capitalised to investment properties and then
amortised over the term of the lease as a reduction of rental income. Certain rental abatements provided to tenants are also
capitalised to investment properties and amortised over the lease term as a reduction of rental income.
The share of property operating expenses which are recoverable from tenants is recognised as gross rental income from
expense recoveries. This is associated with the provision of services relating to the operations of the Group's properties (for
example, council and water rates, insurance, utilities, repairs and maintenance, security costs). The Group recognises revenue
in the accounting period the underlying expenses are incurred in accordance with the contractual terms.

Recognition and measurement
Interest and finance charges
The interest and finance charges on bank loans are expensed in the period in which they occur, other than associated
transaction costs which are capitalised and amortised over the term of the facility to which they relate.
The interest expense on fixed-rate green bonds is recognised using the effective interest rate method.
To determine the amount of borrowing costs capitalised to investment properties that are being constructed or developed
for future use, the Group uses the weighted average interest rate applicable to its outstanding borrowings during the year. For
2022 this was 3.95% (2021: 4.24%).
Finance charges also include interest on lease liabilities as outlined in note 3.2.
Employee entitlements
Employee benefits are expensed as the related service is provided. Details of the employee entitlements expense in relation
to share-based payments is outlined in note 3.6.4.

2.3 Tax expense (continued)
Recognition and measurement
Current tax
Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted
at balance date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all taxable temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities
for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. For deferred tax liabilities or assets arising on
investment property measured at fair value, it is assumed that the carrying amounts of investment property will be recovered
through sale (refer to note 3.3).
Imputation credits
The imputation credits available represent the balance of the imputation credit account at the end of the reporting period,
adjusted for imputation credits which will arise from the payment of the income tax liability.
Key estimates and assumptions: income tax
Deferred tax on depreciation
Deferred tax is provided in respect of depreciation expected to be recovered on the sale of investment properties at fair
value. Investment properties are valued each year by independent valuers. These values include an allocation of the valuation
between the land and building components. The calculation of deferred tax on depreciation recovered relies on this allocation
provided by the valuers.
The calculation of deferred tax on depreciation recovered also requires an assessment to be made of market values
attributable to fixtures and fittings. The market values of fixtures and fittings for significant properties have been assessed
utilising independent valuation advice and the remaining properties have been assessed with reference to previous
transactional evidence and their age and quality.
Depreciation recovered on the former PricewaterhouseCoopers Centre (PwC Centre), Christchurch
The impairment of the PwC Centre in the year ended 31 March 2012 (resulting from the 2010 and 2011 Canterbury earthquakes)
and the associated insurance recovery triggered a potential tax liability for depreciation recovered.
Following the earthquakes, the Government introduced legislation that provides, in certain circumstances, rollover relief for
taxpayers affected by the earthquakes where insurance income will be used to acquire or develop replacement property in
the Canterbury region. The legislation requires that the replacement property be available for use by 31 March 2024. As at
31 March 2022, the Group no longer qualifies for this relief and a current tax liability of $3.6 million has been recognised (2021:
deferred tax liability of $3.6 million).

Recognition and measurement
Trade debtors are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest
rate method, less an allowance for impairment. Collectability of trade debtors is reviewed on an ongoing basis and a provision
for doubtful debts is made when there is evidence that the Group will not be able to collect the receivable. In determining
the provision, the Group applies the simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses prescribed by NZ IFRS 9, which
permits the use of lifetime expected credit losses for all trade debtors. To measure the expected credit losses the Group uses
a provision matrix that is based on its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to debtors
and the economic environment. Debtors are written off when recovery is no longer anticipated. All overdue debtors considered
to be impaired have been provided for at balance date.
Key estimates and assumptions: provision for doubtful debts
The Group’s property revenue largely consists of fixed rental obligations due under lease agreements, which are paid monthly
in advance. Therefore, property revenue and the assessment of the recoverability of tenant debtors have not been subject to
a significant level of judgement or estimation prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Retail trade has been unfavourably impacted by COVID-19 due to extended lockdown periods and the protracted return to
offices. As a result, the trade debtor balance at balance date is relatively high compared to pre-pandemic levels. Judgement
is required in determining allowances for expected credit losses on these receivables due to restrictions on retail property
performance and the uncertain outcome of rental abatement negotiations.

3.2 Investment properties
Recognition and measurement
Investment properties are properties held for long-term capital appreciation and to earn rental income.
Initial recognition - acquired properties
Investment properties are initially measured at cost, plus related costs of acquisition. Subsequent expenditure is capitalised
to the asset's carrying amount when it adds value to the asset and its cost can be measured.
Initial recognition - properties being developed
Investment properties also include properties that are being constructed or developed for future use as investment properties.
All costs directly associated with the purchase and construction of a property, and all subsequent capital expenditures for the
development qualifying as acquisition costs, are capitalised. Borrowing costs are capitalised if they are directly attributable to
the development.
Subsequent measurement
After initial recognition, investment properties are measured at fair value as determined by independent registered valuers.
Investment properties under construction are carried at cost until it is possible to reliably determine their fair value, from which
point they are carried at fair value. Investment properties are valued at least annually and may not be valued by the same valuer
for more than three consecutive years.
Any gains or losses arising from changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss in the reporting period in which they arise.
Investment properties are classified as held for sale when they are actively marketed for sale and their carrying amount will be
recoverable principally through a sale transaction rather than continuing use. Investment properties held for sale are carried
at fair value. Where a contracted sale price is available, the investment property is carried at that value less associated costs
for seismic remediation or rental guarantees, this being the best indicator of fair value. Where no contracted price is available,
the fair value is determined by independent registered valuers.
Lease incentives
Lease incentives provided by the Group to lessees are included in the measurement of fair value of investment properties and
are treated as separate assets. Such assets are amortised on a straight-line basis over the respective periods to which the lease
incentives apply.

3.2 Investment properties (continued)
Ground leases
While the majority of the Group’s investment portfolio is freehold, the Group has entered into several occupational ground
leases of properties or components of properties in its investment portfolio to which NZ IFRS 16 applies. Lease liabilities are
initially measured as the present value of the remaining cash flows discounted at the 'incremental borrowing rate', being the
property yield for the properties with the benefit of the occupational ground leases. Property yield is used given the long term
nature of the leases. The cash flows relating to the ground leases are also included in the fair value of the investment properties
and therefore a gross up for the lease liability is recognised in the investment property balance at the amount equal to the
lease liability.
The Group is exposed to potential future increases in variable lease payments which are not included in lease liabilities until
they take effect. When this occurs a corresponding adjustment is made to the gross up of the lease liability in the investment
property balance.
Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance costs. The finance cost is charged to the Consolidated 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.
Disposals
Investment properties are derecognised when they have been disposed of. The net gain or loss on disposal is calculated as the
difference between the carrying amount of the investment property at the time of the disposal and the proceeds on disposal
and is included in profit or loss in the reporting period in which the disposal settled.

Key estimates and assumptions: valuation and fair value measurement of investment properties
Introduction
All of the Group's investment properties have been determined to be Level 3 (2021: Level 3) in the fair value hierarchy because
all significant inputs that determine fair value are not based on observable market data. Refer to note 1.7 for further information
on the fair value hierarchy.
Valuation process
All investment properties were valued as at 31 March 2022 (and as at 31 March 2021). All valuations are prepared by independent
valuers who are members of the Group's valuation panel and the New Zealand Institute of Valuers.
Investment property values are assessed within a range indicated by at least two valuation approaches; most commonly
the income capitalisation approach and discounted cash flow approach. Other valuation approaches, including the sales
comparison approach or deferred land value approach may be used depending on the nature of the property. In addition, the
adopted valuation of an investment property undergoing development may be assessed using a residual approach.
Estimates are used in these valuation approaches to determine fair value. For the two most common approaches, these include
the capitalisation rate in the income capitalisation approach and the discount rate in the discounted cash flow approach. Both
approaches are also influenced by other estimates relating to market rental levels, vacancy rates, letting-up allowances and
the cost of ongoing operating expenses, capital expenditure and other capital payments.
In relation to capital expenditure, the valuers for Sylvia Park, LynnMall, The Base, Vero Centre, ASB North Wharf, The Aurora
Centre, 44 The Terrace, The Plaza and Northlands have made deductions for seismic strengthening works. The valuer of Centre
Place North has assessed the seismic risk of the asset in the capitalisation rate of the valuation. The Group has provided the
valuers with the estimated cost of works for each asset. In some instances the valuer has assessed additional costs for potential
works to buildings which have not been subject to a Detailed Seismic Assessment (DSA) and/or made additional allowances
for escalation and
profit and risk.
The timing of the cash outflow for these costs has been spread over the likely remediation period and the overall value
deduction reflects the present value of costs over the adopted time horizon.
Under the residual approach, valuers estimate the ‘as if complete’ value of an asset using the common investment valuation
approaches described above. They then deduct remaining project costs and a typical profit margin for risks assumed by the
developer to determine the asset’s ‘as is’ or residual value.
Two assets within the Sylvia Park Precinct were valued using the residual approach as at 31 March 2022, being the Sylvia
Park build-to-rent (BTR) and 3 Te Kehu Way properties, as the development of both of these properties has commenced with
construction underway.
The valuations are reviewed by the Group and adopted as the carrying value in the financial statements. As part of this process,
the Group’s management verifies all major inputs to the valuations, assesses valuation movements since the previous year and
holds discussions with the independent valuers to assess the reasonableness of the valuations.
Impact of the
COVID-19 global pandemic
As at 31 March 2022 the real estate markets to which the Group’s investment properties belong continued to be impacted by
market uncertainty caused by COVID-19.
The market uncertainty has affected key inputs, assumptions and processes used in the valuation of the Group’s investment
properties, being:
•
estimating the net income that a property can produce (income uncertainty), and
•
converting that income to value by applying investment rates of return which are derived from analysis of recent market
transactions (investment uncertainty).

Income uncertainty
The pandemic has impacted the income earning potential of the Group’s properties during the financial period. The Group
leases commercial accommodation to a range of businesses from where they conduct their operations. Restrictions imposed
by the Government to combat the pandemic prevented certain businesses from operating out of their premises in the usual
manner. In response, the Group is working through a cost sharing programme with affected tenants whereby the Group has
forgiven or will forgive a portion of the rent payable by the tenant. The percentage of rent forgiven and the duration of the
forgiveness period, is subject to negotiation between the Group and the tenant. This programme had a negative impact on the
Group’s income for the year ended 31 March 2022. Future income may also be impacted as:
•
the underlying activity and profitability of many of the Group’s tenants may be affected by further restrictions which prevent
the population from socialising or accessing goods and services to the extent they could before the pandemic, although
the combination of the Government’s pandemic management protocols and widespread take-up of the vaccination is
expected to reduce the need for long-term restrictions in the future, and therefore the need for further cost sharing
measures of the same scale. However, risk also remains that a more severe variant of Covid-19 may transpire in the future.
•
border restrictions into New Zealand mean businesses that rely on travel and tourism continue to be negatively impacted,
although restrictions are proposed to be lifted on a staged basis with normal visa processing to resume for all visa categories
from August 2022.
Investment uncertainty
Investment uncertainty arising from COVID-19 has lessened during the financial period relative to the prior period, although
some uncertainty still remains, generally for larger (above $100 million) retail and retail-dominated mixed-use properties.
During the financial period investment market participants were restricted in conducting normal business activities during Alert
Levels 3 and 4 as well as during red traffic light settings. Additionally, many large investors are domiciled offshore and travel
restrictions prevented them from physically inspecting assets and undertaking typical due diligence. However, there has been
varying levels of transactional evidence across all core real estate sectors during the financial period, providing evidence of
current market pricing. The exception is for larger retail assets above $100 million in value for which the inputs and metrics used
to reliably estimate fair value are derived with reference to sub-$100 million retail asset sales, a robust level of larger Australian
transactional evidence, and local market metrics from before the pandemic began.
Valuation uncertainty
Material Valuation Uncertainty statements have been removed from the external valuations of all of the Group’s assets as at
31 March 2022.
More recently, there has been increased transactional activity across some property sectors. This has enabled valuers of
properties within these sectors to conclude valuations with a greater degree of certainty and consequently remove the Material
Valuation Uncertainty clauses from the valuations for these assets. Notwithstanding, these valuations still include statements
pertaining to market volatility, elevated risk and uncertainty suggesting that a higher degree of caution should still be exercised
when relying upon the valuations.
Until investment property values can be demonstrated to have stabilised post COVID-19, the Group will continue to monitor
the investment markets to determine if more frequent valuation updates need to be obtained.
While valuation uncertainty relating to COVID-19 is reducing, general macroeconomic trends have evolved over the latter
part of the financial year which is creating a heightened sense of uncertainty as at the balance date. These trends include
rising interest rates on the back of the highest levels of consumer price inflation observed since the early 1990’s. High levels
of
inflation and the increasing cost of living is expected to adversely impact consumer spending in the short to medium term,
which creates a more uncertain outlook for retailers. Higher interest rates have narrowed the spread between yields and cost of
debt which adds to the level of valuation uncertainty as at the balance date and, all else equal, creates a risk that capitalisation
rates may increase in the short term.
The Group is in the process of identifying the impact of climate change on the business and assets. The valuers made no explicit
adjustments in respect of climate change matters. However, the Group and valuers anticipate that climate change could have
a greater influence on valuations in the future as investment markets place a greater emphasis on this topic.

Impact on values at 31 March 2022
The impact of COVID-19 on property valuation inputs has reduced over time, with valuers benefiting from greater market
certainty and having accounted for the negative effects of the pandemic during previous periods. The valuers have made
deductions for the costs of estimated rent relief to tenants for occupancy disruption resulting from pandemic-related impacts.
This is consistent with the approach taken for the valuations prepared as at 31 March 2021. As at 31 March 2022, capitalisation
rates and discount rates contracted, on average, across the investment portfolio on the back of increasing levels of investment
certainty relative to the prior period.
For the year ended 31 March 2022 the Group reported a fair value gain of $120.5 million.
Seismic uncertainty
The Group is committed to upgrading the seismic resilience of its buildings to appropriate New Building Standards (NBS).
Detailed Seismic Assessments (DSA) continue to be undertaken for the Group’s buildings. A DSA verifies a building’s NBS rating
and assists in the design of remediation solutions, where required.
The cost assessments for seismic works required to increase NBS ratings contain uncertainty. The level of accuracy of design
solutions and cost estimates can vary as the design and remediation process progresses. Initially, estimates may be based
on the structural plans of a building, which can sometimes change significantly once more intrusive building investigations
are carried out. Therefore, costs for remediation works may fluctuate, and the costs associated with current or imminent
remediation works will be more accurate than those for a project in the early phases of investigation or planning.
The process undertaken and standards which are applied in seismic assessments evolve over time as the engineering
profession’s understanding of seismic events develops. This means that the outcome of seismic assessments may be subject
to change over time. Changes to seismic standards (or the interpretation and application of existing seismic standards) could
result in buildings no longer meeting the minimum seismic standards deemed appropriate by the Group, and may require the
Group to undertake further seismic remediation works.
Valuations for some of the Group’s buildings contain deductions for costs associated with identified seismic remediation
works. The cost deductions are typically based on external quantity surveyor assessments with additional allowances for
professional fees and other associated costs. In some instances the valuer has assessed additional costs for potential works
to buildings which have not been subject to a DSA and/or made additional allowances for escalation and profit and risk.
In some cases the Group has become aware of potential remediation requirements from recent preliminary investigations and
in these instances the Group has provided general provisions to the valuer for inclusion in the valuations. These provisions are
high level allowances pending the outcome of further investigations.
These allowances are based on the best information available at the time of valuation but may be subject to change as
circumstances and standards continue to evolve.

Valuation inputs
A valuation is determined based on a range of unobservable inputs. These are unobservable as they are not freely available or
explicit in the marketplace but rather analysed from transactional data that has taken place in similar market circumstances to
that prevailing at the date of valuation. Refer to note 1.7 for further information on the fair value hierarchy.
The Group’s investment property values contain unobservable inputs in determining fair value, some of which can be
described as ‘key unobservable inputs’ where significant judgement is applied in determining the input and a change to any
one of these inputs could significantly alter the fair value of an investment property.
Key unobservable inputs are the capitalisation rate, discount rate, terminal capitalisation rate, market rent and growth rates.
The table below sets out these key unobservable inputs and the ranges adopted by the valuers across the various properties
making up the Group’s mixed-use and
office portfolios. The retail portfolio has been excluded in the current and prior years in
alignment with the Group's strategy.
The impact of COVID-19 has been largely reversed and can be seen in the analysis below through the general strengthening
in metrics from 2021 to 2022. This is mainly evident through the capitalisation rate and discount rates metrics, which have
contracted (decreased), and the growth rates, which have expanded (increased), having an effect of increasing the fair value.
The lower end of the growth rate range for the mixed-use portfolio is now at nil growth which is an improvement relative to the
prior year which saw some negative growth forecast. These metrics indicate a range across all assets in that portfolio, so they
don’t affect all properties, and typically relate to the early year or years of the cash flow so they don’t continue across the full
discounted cash flow horizon.

3.2 Investment properties (continued)
The valuation of investment properties is complex with a number of interrelated key inputs and assumptions.
When calculating the income capitalisation value, the gross market rent has a strong interrelationship with the core capitalisation rate.
An increase in the gross market rent and an increase in the core capitalisation rate could potentially offset the impact to fair value.
The same can be said for a decrease in each input. A directionally opposite change in the two inputs could potentially magnify the
impact to the fair value.
When calculating the discounted cash flow value, the discount rate has a strong interrelationship with the terminal capitalisation rate.
An increase in the discount rate and a decrease in the terminal capitalisation rate could potentially offset the impact to fair value. The
same can be said for an opposite movement in each input. A directionally similar change in the two inputs could potentially magnify
the impact to the fair value.
The following table explains the key inputs used to measure fair value for investment properties.
Valuation techniques
Income capitalisation approachA valuation technique which determines fair value by capitalising a property's core net income at
an appropriate, market derived rate of return with subsequent capital adjustments for near-term
events, typically including letting up allowances, capital expenditure and the difference between
contract and market rentals.
Discounted cash flow approachA valuation technique which requires explicit assumptions to be made regarding the prospective
income and expenses of a property over an assumed holding period, typically 10 years. The
assessed cash flows are discounted to present value at an appropriate, market-derived discount
rate to determine fair value.
Residual approachA valuation technique used primarily for property which is undergoing, or is expected to
undergo, redevelopment. Fair value is determined through the estimation of a gross realisation on
completion of the redevelopment with deductions made for all costs associated with converting
the property to its end use including finance costs and a typical profit margin for risks assumed by
the developer.
Unobservable inputs within the income capitalisation approach
Gross market rentThe annual amount for which a tenancy within a property is expected to achieve under a new arm's
length leasing transaction, including a fair share of property operating expenses.
Core capitalisation rateThe rate of return, determined through analysis of comparable market-related sales transactions,
which is applied to a property's core net income to derive value.
Other income capitalisation rateThe rate of return which is applied to other, typically variable or uncontracted, sources of property
income to derive value and that is assessed with consideration to the risks in achieving each
income source.
Unobservable inputs within the discounted cash flow approach
Discount rateThe rate, determined through analysis of comparable market-related sales transactions that is
applied to a property's future net cash flows to convert those cash flows into a present value.
Terminal capitalisation rateThe rate which is applied to a property's core net income at the end of an assumed holding period
to derive an estimated future market value.
Rental growth rateThe annual growth rate applied to market rents over an assumed holding period.

Recognition and measurement
Deferred tax is provided for all taxable temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial
reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is
probable that future taxable profits will be available to utilise them. For deferred tax assets or liabilities arising on investment
property, it is assumed that the carrying amounts of investment property will be recovered through sale. Deferred tax is
disclosed on a net basis, as the deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to the same taxation authority.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer
probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred tax asset to be utilised.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is realised
or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) applicable at balance date.

3.4.2 Interest rate derivatives (continued)
Recognition and measurement
Interest rate derivative instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered
into and are subsequently re-measured to fair value each balance date exclusive of accrued interest. Fair values at balance date
are calculated to be the present value of the estimated future cash flows of these instruments. Transaction costs are expensed
on initial recognition and recognised in profit or loss. Derivatives are carried as assets when their fair value is positive and as
liabilities when their fair value is negative.
The Group does not designate any derivatives into hedging relationships. Gains or losses arising from changes in fair value of
interest rate derivatives are recognised in profit or loss.
Key estimate: fair value of interest rate derivatives
The fair values of interest rate derivatives are determined from valuations prepared by an independent treasury advisor using
valuation techniques classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy (2021: Level 2). Refer to note 1.7 for further information on
the fair value hierarchy. These are based on the present value of estimated future cash flows based on the terms and maturities
of each contract and the current market interest rates at balance date. Fair values also reflect the current creditworthiness
of the derivative counterparties. These values are verified against valuations prepared by the respective counterparties. The
valuations were based on market rates at 31 March 2022 of between 1.53% for the 90-day BKBM and 3.38% for the 10-year swap
rate (2021: 0.35% and 1.97%, respectively).

3.4.3 Capital management
The Group's capital includes equity and interest bearing liabilities. The Group maintains a strong capital base to ensure investor,
creditor and market confidence and to sustain the Group's ongoing activities. The impact of the level of capital on shareholder returns
and 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 is managed by the Group. The Group is subject to the capital requirement imposed by
the Group's Senior Facilities Agreement governing its interest bearing liabilities which requires that total finance debt be maintained
at no more than 45% of the total tangible assets of the Group. However, the Group actively manages its debt to its internal treasury
policy which sets a target gearing range of 25% to 35%. The Group has complied with its Senior Facilities Agreement capital
requirement at all times throughout the year.
The Group actively manages liquidity risk to ensure that it is able to access sufficient funds on a timely basis to meet operational
expenses, capital and debt expiry commitments as and when they fall due. To enhance its access to a range of funding sources, the
Group has secured credit ratings from S&P Global Ratings. To minimise liquidity risk, the Group ensures that it maintains sufficient
capacity in its overall debt facilities to cover projected debt (current debt plus Board approved capital commitments), has ready
access to sufficient cash reserves or available debt drawdowns, and reliably forecasts its expected cash requirements. Further detail
on liquidity risk is provided in note 4.3.
Dividend payments are based on a range of factors, including with particular reference to the Group’s adjusted funds from operations
(AFFO), which is the primary basis on which dividend amounts are determined. AFFO is a non-GAAP performance measure used by
the Group to determine underlying and recurring cash flows from operations. AFFO is calculated with reference to the guidelines
established by the Property Council of Australia. In determining a dividend payment, the Group will have regard to, amongst other
things, the solvency requirements under the Companies Act 1993, its banking and green bond covenants and internal financing
targets, its future investment plans, current and forecast earnings, operating cash flows, and the economic climate and competitive
environment. Having regard to these matters, the Group will target a dividend payout ratio of approximately 90% to 100% of AFFO.
At balance date, the market capitalisation of the Group (being the 31 March 2022 closing share price, as quoted on the NZX Main
Board, multiplied by the number of shares on issue) was below the carrying amount of the Group’s net assets and shareholders’ funds.
In considering the difference, the Group notes that 99% of total assets at 31 March 2022 are investment properties which are carried
at fair value as detailed in note 3.2.
Factors that may influence market capitalisation include, amongst other things:
•
Broader market and investor sentiment
•
Property market segment sentiment, particularly with regard to retail assets
•
Effect of leverage of debt funding and including corporate overheads
•
The level of uncertainty due to the impact of COVID-19 and its impact on the New Zealand and global economies
•
The level of uncertainty due to the Russia/Ukraine conflict and the impact on the New Zealand and global economies
•
The impact of rising interest rates, inflation, supply chain issues and other market factors.
In the review of valuations and the considerations around fair value determined by the independent valuers (as disclosed in note 3.2),
and having considered the influencing factors above, the Group considers the carrying amount of net assets is appropriate.

Long-term incentive plans (LTI plans)
Performance Share Rights LTI Plan
In the financial year ended 31 March 2020 the Company introduced a new LTI Plan to replace the legacy plan for selected senior
employees. Under the new LTI Plan, participants are issued Performance Share Rights (PSRs) for service periods of one, two and three
years. The number of PSRs that can be exercised and converted into shares in the Company depends on a mix of the Company's
shareholder return relative to comparator entities and a return on capital employed metric over a one year performance period. On
vesting, the participant is entitled to receive one share upon the valid exercise of each vested PSR they hold.
Legacy LTI Plan
The Company has previously operated a legacy LTI Plan for selected senior employees. The outcome of the
final tranche was
determined in the year ended 31 March 2022. Under the legacy LTI Plan, ordinary shares in the Company were purchased on market
by Pacific Custodians (New Zealand) Limited (the LTI Trustee). Participants purchased shares from the LTI Trustee with funds lent to
them by the Company. The number of shares that potentially vest depends on the Company's absolute total shareholder return as
well as its shareholder return relative to comparator entities. On vesting, the employee is provided a cash amount which must be used
to repay the loan and the relevant number of shares are then transferred to the participant.
Recognition and measurement
The fair value of the LTI plans at grant date is recognised over the vesting period of the plan as an employee entitlements
expense, with a corresponding increase in the share-based payments reserve. The fair value is independently measured using
an appropriate option pricing model.

Key estimates and assumptions: fair value measurement of LTI plan
The fair value of the LTI plans have been determined using a Monte Carlo simulation to model a range of future share price
outcomes for the Company and comparator entities. The fair value at grant date and the measurement inputs used were
as follows:
Performance Share Rights LTI Plan
Measurement date
31 March 202231 March 2021
Weighted average performance share right price at grant date$1.238$0.888
Risk-free rate0.22%0.18%
Standard deviation of the comparator entities14.0% - 22.3%12.1% - 17.8%
Correlation between Company share price and comparator entities36.4% - 67.8%18.2% - 59.9%
Estimated fair value per share$1.032$0.815
The volatility and correlation measures were derived from measuring the standard deviation and correlation of returns for listed
entities in the S&P/NZX All Real Estate Index over a three-year period. The risk free rate was based on government bond yields
over the same period.
It has been assumed that participants will remain employed with the Company on the vesting date. Dividend assumptions are
based on projected dividend payments over the vesting period.
The employee entitlements expense relating to the LTI plan for the year ended 31 March 2022 is $1,075,955 (2021: $1,183,304)
with a corresponding increase in the share-based payments reserve. The unamortised fair value of the remaining performance
share rights at 31 March 2022 is $623,106 (2021: $594,130).

Kiwi Property
Annual Report 2022

In the normal course of business, the Group is exposed to a variety of financial risks. This section explains the Group's exposure to
financial risks, how these risks could affect the Group's financial performance and how they are managed.
The Group is exposed to the following financial risks through its use of financial instruments:
•
Interest rate risk
•
Credit risk
•
Liquidity risk
Financial instruments
The following items in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position are classified as financial instruments: cash and cash
equivalents, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables, interest bearing liabilities and interest rate derivatives. All financial
instruments are recorded at amortised cost with the exception of interest rate derivatives, which are recorded at fair value through
profit or loss.
Risk management
The Board has overall responsibility for establishing and overseeing the Group's risk management framework. The Board has an audit
and risk committee with responsibilities that include risk management, compliance and financial management and control.
The Group has developed a risk management framework which guides management and the Board in the identification, assessment
and monitoring of new and existing risks. Management report to the audit and risk committee and the Board on relevant risks and
the controls and treatments of those risks.
In response to the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 global pandemic, the Group has considered financial risk management and
any additional controls needed. These are discussed further in notes 4.2 and 4.3.
4.1 Interest rate risk
Nature of the risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that fluctuations in interest rates impact the Group's financial performance or the fair value of its holdings
of financial instruments.
Risk management
The Group adopts a policy of reducing its exposure to changes in interest rates by utilising interest rate derivatives to limit future
interest cost volatility by exchanging floating rate interest obligations for fixed rate interest obligations or by exchanging fixed rate
interest obligations for floating rate interest obligations. The Group has established a treasury management group consisting of
senior management and external treasury advisors to review and set treasury strategy within the guidelines of its treasury policy.
Exposure
The Group's exposure to interest rate risk arises primarily from bank loans which are subject to floating interest rates. The weighted
average interest rate, term to maturity of interest bearing liabilities and details of the interest rate derivatives utilised are set out in
note 3.4. The fair value of interest rate derivatives is impacted by changes in market interest rates.

4.1 Interest rate risk (continued)
Sensitivity to interest rate movements
The following sensitivity analysis shows the effect on profit or loss and equity if market interest rates at balance date had been 100
basis points higher or lower with all other variables held constant.
An increase in market interest rates gives rise to a favourable impact on profit or loss and equity due to the fair value of the interest
rate derivatives increasing by more than the additional interest costs.

4.2 Credit rate risk
Nature of the risk
Credit rate risk is the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The
Group incurs credit risk in the normal course of business from trade receivables and transactions with
financial institutions.
Risk management
The risk associated with trade receivables is managed with a credit policy which includes performing credit evaluations on tenants
and imposing standard payment terms and the monitoring of aged debtors. Collateral is obtained where possible. The risk from
financial institutions is managed by only placing cash and deposits with high credit quality financial institutions.
Exposure
The carrying amounts of financial assets recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position best represent the Group's
maximum exposure to credit risk and are recognised net of any provision for losses on these financial instruments.
The COVID-19 pandemic has increased credit rate risk from trade receivables and the Group continues to work with tenants most
vulnerable to the impacts of the pandemic to agree rent relief and other measures where needed. This is expected to assist tenants
in resuming their business operations as quickly as possible and increase their ability to pay trade receivable balances owing to
the Group.
The Group is not exposed to any concentrations of credit risk.
Kiwi Property
Annual Report 2022
76
4.3 Liquidity risk
Nature of the risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due.
Risk management
The Group evaluates its liquidity requirements on an ongoing basis by continuously forecasting cash flows. The Group generates
sufficient cash flows from its operating activities to meet its obligations arising from its financial liabilities and has bank facilities
available to cover potential shortfalls. The Group's approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure it will always have sufficient liquidity
to meet its obligations when they fall due under both normal and stress conditions. The Group manages liquidity by maintaining
adequate committed credit facilities and spreading maturities in accordance with its treasury policy.
Exposure
The following table analyses the Group's financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on the earliest contractual maturity
date at balance date. The amounts are contractual undiscounted cash flows, which includes interest through to maturity and
assumes all other variables remain constant.

Independent auditor’s report
To the shareholders of Kiwi Property Group Limited
Our opinion
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Kiwi Property Group Limited
(the Company), including its subsidiaries (the Group), present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of the Group as at 31 March 2022, its financial performance and its cash flows for the
year then ended in accordance with New Zealand Equivalents to International Financial Reporting
Standards (NZ IFRS) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
What we have audited
The Group's consolidated financial statements comprise:
● the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 March 2022;
● the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the year then ended;
● the consolidated statement of changes in equity for the year then ended;
● the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended; and
● the notes to the consolidated financial statements, which include significant accounting policies
and other explanatory information.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand) (ISAs
(NZ)) and International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are
further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements
section of our report.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our opinion.
Independence
We are independent of the Group in accordance with Professional and Ethical Standard 1
International Code of Ethics for Assurance Practitioners (including International Independence
Standards) (New Zealand) (PES 1) issued by the New Zealand Auditing and Assurance Standards
Board and the International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International
Independence Standards) issued by the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA
Code), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.
Our firm carries out other services for the Group in the areas of audits of special purpose financial
information in accordance with tenancy agreements, agreed upon procedures in respect of a specified
remuneration metric and an apportionment statement, and the benchmarking of remuneration. The
provision of these other services has not impaired our independence as auditor of the Group.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in
our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current year. These matters were addressed
in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our
opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Description of the key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter
Valuation of investment properties
As disclosed in note 3.2 of the consolidated
financial statements, the Group's
investment properties comprise mixed-use,
office and other properties and, including
assets classified as held for sale, were
valued at $3.6 billion as at 31 March 2022.
The valuation of the Group's property
portfolio is inherently subjective and is
given specific audit focus and attention due
to the existence of significant estimation
uncertainty. A minor percentage difference
in a single or multiple input assumption
could result in material misstatement of the
valuation.
The valuations were performed by
independent registered valuers who
performed their work in accordance with the
International Valuation Standards and the
Australia and New Zealand Property
Institute Valuation and Property Standards.
The valuers are rotated across the portfolio
on a three-yearly cycle. The Group has
adopted the assessed values determined
by the valuers.
In determining a property's valuation, two
approaches are generally used to
determine the fair value of an investment
property: the income capitalisation
approach and the discounted cash flow
approach, to arrive at a range of valuation
outcomes from which the valuers derive a
point estimate.
The valuers take into account property
specific information such as the contracted
tenancy agreements and rental income
earned by the asset. They apply
assumptions in relation to capitalisation
rates, discount rates and market rent and
the anticipated growth, based on market
data and transactions where available.
Given the subjectivity involved in determining valuations
for individual properties, including alternative
assumptions and valuation methods, there is a range of
values that could be considered reasonable.
We considered the adequacy of the disclosures made in
note 3.2 to the consolidated financial statements,
Investment properties, which sets out the key
judgements and estimates. This note describes the
current uncertainties that exist in the valuation of
investment properties, including the impact of the
COVID-19 pandemic.
In assessing the valuation of investment properties, we
performed the following procedures:
External valuations
We held discussions with management to understand:
● movements in the Group’s investment property
portfolio;
● changes in the condition of each property;
● the controls in place over the valuation process;
and
● the impact that COVID-19, the macroeconomic
uncertainties and climate change has had on the
Group’s investment property portfolio.
For all properties, the carrying value was agreed to the
external valuation reports and we held discussions with
the valuers. These discussions included the impact that
COVID-19, the macroeconomic uncertainties and
climate change has had on market activity and how the
valuers had factored this into their valuations. Applying
a risk-based approach, we read and evaluated the
valuations of specific properties.
The valuers confirmed that the valuation approach for
each property was in accordance with accounting
standards and suitable for use in determining the
carrying value of investment properties at 31 March
2022.
We assessed the valuers' qualifications, expertise and
their objectivity and we found no evidence to suggest
that the objectivity of any valuer was compromised in
their performance of the valuations.
We also considered whether or not there was bias in
determining individual valuations and found no evidence
of bias.

Description of the key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter
For properties that have development or
seismic work ongoing as at 31 March 2022,
the costs required to complete the works
are estimated by management and
adjusted against the value determined by
the valuers along with profit and risk and
stabilisation allowances.
Management verifies all major inputs to the
valuations, assesses property valuation
movements since prior year and interim
valuations and hold discussions with the
independent valuers to assess the
reasonableness of the valuations, and
communicates the results of the process
with the Directors.
For those assets classified as held for sale
that have a contractual offer accepted by
the Directors, the assets have been held at
the contracted sales price, which is
considered fair value at balance date.
We carried out procedures, on a sample basis, to test
whether property-specific information supplied to the
valuers by the Group reflected the underlying property
records held by the Group. For the items tested, the
information was consistent.
Assumptions
Our work over the assumptions used in the valuations
focused on the largest properties in the portfolio and
those properties where the assumptions used and/or
year-on-year fair value movement suggested a possible
outlier versus market data. We engaged our own in-
house valuation specialist to assess the methodologies
and critique and challenge, against market evidence
and current market conditions, the key assumptions
used by the valuers.
We obtained management’s estimates of costs on the
properties with significant development or seismic
works. We compared these estimates to internal
budgets developed by the Group’s project team and
submitted to the Directors for approval, and to external
quantity surveyors’ reports, where available.
We concluded that the assumptions used in the
valuations were supportable in light of available and
comparable market evidence.
Assets held for sale
The sales price of assets classified as held for sale that
are under a contractual offer have been agreed to the
signed sale and purchase agreement.

Our audit approach
Overview
Overall group materiality: $6.1 million, which represents 5% of profit
before tax excluding the net fair value gain on investment properties
and interest rate derivatives.
We chose profit before tax excluding the net fair value gain on
investment properties and interest rate derivatives as the benchmark
because, in our view, it is the benchmark against which the
performance of the Group is most commonly measured by users.
Following our assessment of the risk of material misstatement, we
performed a full scope audit over the consolidated financial
information of the Group.
As reported above, we have one key audit matter, being:
● Valuation of investment properties
As part of designing our audit, we determined materiality and assessed the risks of material
misstatement in the consolidated financial statements. In particular, we considered where
management made subjective judgements; for example, in respect of significant accounting estimates
that involved making assumptions and considering future events that are inherently uncertain. As in all
of our audits, we also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls, including among
other matters, consideration of whether there was evidence of bias that represented a risk of material
misstatement due to fraud.
Materiality
The scope of our audit was influenced by our application of materiality. An audit is designed to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material
misstatement. Misstatements may arise due to fraud or error. They are considered material if,
individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of
users taken on the basis of the consolidated financial statements.
Based on our professional judgement, we determined certain quantitative thresholds for materiality,
including the overall Group materiality for the consolidated financial statements as a whole as set out
above. These, together with qualitative considerations, helped us to determine the scope of our audit,
the nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures and to evaluate the effect of misstatements, both
individually and in aggregate, on the consolidated financial statements as a whole.
How we tailored our group audit scope
We tailored the scope of our audit in order to perform sufficient work to enable us to provide an opinion
on the consolidated financial statements as a whole, taking into account the structure of the Group,
the accounting processes and controls, and the industry in which the Group operates.
Other information
The Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the
information included in the Annual report, but does not include the consolidated financial statements
and our auditor's report thereon.
Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do
not express any form of audit opinion or assurance conclusion thereon.
Kiwi Property
Annual Report 2022
84
PwC
In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the
other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent
with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise
appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed on the other information
that we obtained prior to the date of this auditor’s report, we conclude that there is a material
misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in
this regard.
Responsibilities of the Directors for the consolidated financial statements
The Directors are responsible, on behalf of the Company, for the preparation and fair presentation of
the consolidated financial statements in accordance with NZ IFRS and IFRS, and for such internal
control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial
statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the Directors are responsible 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 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 (NZ) and ISAs will always
detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are
considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence
the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements is
located at the External Reporting Board’s website at:
https://www.xrb.govt.nz/assurance-standards/auditors-responsibilities/audit-report-1/
This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
Who we report to
This report is made solely to the Company’s shareholders, as a body. Our audit work has been
undertaken so that we might state those matters which we are required to state to them in an auditor’s
report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume
responsibility to anyone other than the Company and the Company’s shareholders, as a body, for our
audit work, for this report or for the opinions we have formed.
The engagement partner on the audit resulting in this independent auditor’s report is Jonathan Skilton.

Kiwi Property
Annual Report 2022

We are committed to the highest standards of
corporate governance.
Our corporate governance framework draws on guidelines,
principles, recommendations, and requirements from a variety
of sources including the NZX Listing Rules and NZX Corporate
Governance Code (the NZX Code). In addition, the Board has
approved policies and practices that aim to reflect best practice
corporate governance.
The overarching purpose of the NZX Code is to promote
good corporate governance. The NZX Code contains eight
corporate governance principles. For each principle, the NZX
Code sets out good practice recommendations. In total there
are 33 recommendations.
NZX Code compliance
Kiwi Property has followed the recommendations set out
in the NZX Code for the year ended 31 March 2022 except,
to the extent set out in the Kiwi Property FY22 Corporate
Governance Statement, which is available on our website
kp.co.nz/about-us/corporate-governance.
This statement is current as at 31 March 2022 and has been
approved by the Board.
The corporate governance policies, practices and
processes that Kiwi Property adopted or followed
for the year ended
31 March 2022 are summarised,
or referred to, in the Kiwi Property FY22 Corporate
Governance Statement.
The following disclosures are required to be made in this
Annual Report by the NZX Listing Rules, the Companies
Act 1993 and other legislation, rules or disclosure regimes.
Director independence
Director independence is determined in accordance with
the requirements of the NZX Listing Rules. The Board has
determined that, as at 31 March 2022, all directors of the
Company were independent: Chris Aiken, Mary Jane Daly, Mark
Ford, Jane Freeman, Mark Powell and Simon Shakesheff. This
assessment is based on the fact that:
•
No director is currently, or within the last three years,
employed in an executive role by the Company, or any of
its subsidiaries, and there has not been a period of at least
three years between ceasing such employment and serving
on the Board.
•
No director currently, or within the last 12 months, holds a
senior role in a provider of material professional services to
the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
•
No director currently, or within the last three years, has a
material business relationship (e.g. as a supplier or customer)
with the Company or any of its subsidiaries.
•
No director currently is a substantial product holder
of the Company or a senior manager of, or person
otherwise associated with, a substantial product holder of
the Company.
•
No director currently, or within the last three years, has a
material contractual relationship with the Company or any of
its subsidiaries, other than as a director.
•
No director has close family ties with anyone in the categories
listed above.
•
No director has been a director with the Company for a
length of time that may compromise independence.
The Board noted that Jane Freeman had previously disclosed
her family connection to NZ Strong Construction. The Board
concluded that this connection did not and does not interfere,
and could not reasonably be seen to interfere, with the director’s
capacity to bring an independent judgment to bear on issues
before the Board and to act in the best interests of the Company,
and represent the interests of the Company’s financial product
holders generally.

Message from the Remuneration and Nominations Committee Chair
Dear Shareholders,
It is my pleasure to present the Remuneration Report for the year ended 31 March 2022 (FY22). The following pages outline Kiwi
Property’s remuneration strategy and framework, as well as the related performance and remuneration outcomes for the Chief
Executive Officer (CEO), which align to both the Company’s strategic objectives and the interests of our shareholders.
Kiwi Property’s Board is supported by the Remuneration and Nominations Committee (RNC) to ensure appropriate remuneration
policies and practices are in place to attract and retain top talent at all levels of the organisation. The RNC’s role and responsibilities
are detailed in the Remuneration and Nominations Committee Charter.
Year in review
As described in the Chair’s letter and the CEO’s report on pages 6-13, Kiwi Property delivered a strong operating performance in FY22
and made important progress on the delivery of our business strategy, which is based on intensifying our mixed-use assets, growing
with third party capital and empowering customer success.
COVID-19 had a significant impact on many of our people over the past year, however by continuing to prioritise the health and
wellbeing of our team, tenants and customers we have come through the pandemic in a robust position. The Board and I recognise
the disruption faced by many of our team members in FY22 and we thank them for their resilience and contribution through this time.
Notwithstanding the COVID-19 rent relief measures provided to support many of our tenants, our FY22 operating earnings before
interest and tax (Operating EBIT), a key internal measure used for determining a component of short-term incentive outcomes,
increased by 5.8% to $159.7 million. In addition, the Company exceeded the FY22 return on capital employed (ROCE) target, a key
measure used for determining a component of long-term incentive outcomes.
Whilst net profit after tax increased by 14.1% to $224.3 million and the total dividend for FY22 increased by 8.7% to 5.60 cents per
share, our total shareholder return (TSR), a further component of long-term incentive outcomes, was adversely impacted by market
sentiment. Consequently, the FY22 TSR hurdle was not achieved.
CEO remuneration outcomes for the year ended
31 March 2022
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the impact on the overall economy and social environment, the CEO’s base salary was
unchanged for the year ended 31 March 2022.
The organisation’s Operating EBIT outcome, combined with achievements against our strategic ‘one team goals’ and the CEO’s
individual performance targets, result in a short-term incentive pay-out of $378,739 for the CEO in respect of the year ended
31 March 2022. This outcome is 86.5% of the CEO’s total on-target STI opportunity.
As mentioned above, under the Performance Share Rights (PSR) long-term incentive scheme, the ROCE performance hurdle was
exceeded while the TSR performance hurdle was not met. As a result, 75% of the CEO’s PSR grant relating to FY22 will be awarded
(subject to deferred vesting arrangements) and 25% will be forfeited.

The following table outlines the key areas of focus in this report, including any changes in our approach to remuneration.
Key focus area or outcomeHighlights/details
STI and LTI performance measures and
remuneration outcomes
We have enhanced our report to provide details about each measure of the STI
and LTI schemes. The report includes the CEO’s performance against the set
measures and his remuneration outcomes related to these schemes.
CEO fixed annual remuneration movement
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Board decided not to make any
changes to the CEO’s base salary during the reporting period.
Changes to the CEO’s LTI quantum
Based on remuneration market data provided by PwC, the Board approved an
increase in the long-term incentive quantum for the CEO from 50% of fixed
annual remuneration (FAR) to 70% of FAR with effect from 1 April 2021.
Changes to the PSR Scheme
A comprehensive review of the PSR long-term incentive scheme was undertaken during the year. The Board acknowledged the
current scheme, introduced in 2019, was designed to support the Company through a transitional period whilst it pivoted from being
predominantly focused on pure retail assets to a strategy focusing on mixed-use assets and inter-connected communities. As a result
of this review, and the stage that the business is now at, changes have been made to the scheme. The changes, which have been
aligned with market practice, aim to better reward long-term performance and ensure greater alignment between shareholders and
scheme participants. The changes take effect from 1 April 2022 and are summarised as follows:
•
Performance and vesting periods - change from an annual tranche vesting approach to a single-point, three-year
vesting approach.
•
Performance measures and weightings - provide greater weighting to external performance indicators by increasing the
weighting of the TSR performance measure from 25% to 40% (with a corresponding decrease in the ROCE performance measure
from 75% to 60%).
•
Scheme governance - introduce a clawback and malus provision in the scheme documentation.
•
Provide opportunity for out-performance rewards - increase the maximum ROCE performance pay-out scale from 100%
(on-target) to a maximum of 140% (of on-target) if outperformance above target is achieved.
•
Quantum - align remuneration quanta in line with Kiwi Property’s remuneration policy and to reflect further changes to market
data, by:
•
increasing CEO LTI quantum from 70% of FAR to 82.5% (on-target)
•
increasing executive’s LTI quantum from 25% - 27.5% of FAR to 30% (on-target).
In addition to the changes outlined above, the Board has approved a transition approach to the new scheme (referred to as
‘grandfathering’). Under this approach, the existing scheme will be progressively phased out over the next two years.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the employees at Kiwi Property for their commitment and support throughout the year.
On behalf of the Board and RNC, I invite you to read the Remuneration report and welcome your feedback on our approach to and
disclosure of Kiwi Property’s remuneration arrangements.

Short term incentive (STI)
The STI potential for our people has components linked to the Company’s performance, team performance and personal
performance against specific goals.
Measures may change year on year to best drive business objectives and performance. Incentives are set around the market median
for target performance, with potential for participants to earn more for premium performance.
Performance measures
Company performance
•
The Company performance measure is linked to the Company’s budgeted operating earnings before interest and tax
(Operating EBIT).
•
The scheme is designed to drive outperformance of the Operating EBIT metric.
•
The Board determines an annual Operating EBIT target that must be achieved before any incentive is paid.
•
Once this target is achieved, payment of the Company component commences at 50% and can increase to a maximum of 115%
depending on the level of Operating EBIT outperformance.
Team performance
•
Our executive employees' team performance portion is measured against the ‘one team goals’ which are aligned to strategy and
approved by the Board for the performance measurement period.
•
Other employees' team performance portion is measured against a ‘plan on a page’ (which may be based on the ‘one team goals'),
developed by the employee's team manager for the performance measurement period.
Individual performance
•
Our executive team's individual performance is measured against the performance of their team's ‘plan on a page’.
•
Other employees' individual performance are measured against the goals approved by the employee’s team manager.
•
Each employee’s individual performance measures are discussed and agreed between (as applicable) the Board, CEO and
managers with their direct report, in-line with the following principles:
•
Measures will be quantifiable, objective and able to be measured by existing systems/reporting in the business, and
•
All goals and performance indicators will be agreed at the start of the performance measurement period or as soon as
reasonably practicable following the start of the period.

Long term incentive (LTI) scheme
Performance Share Rights (PSR)
The Company’s current PSR scheme entitles the participant to receive shares in the Company upon the vesting and exercise of
performance share rights. The participant is entitled to receive one share upon the valid exercise of each vested share right they hold.
A grant vests proportionately over a three year period, whereby one-third of the PSR grant has a one year vesting period, one-third
has a two year vesting period and one-third has a three year vesting period. From 1 April 2022, the scheme will change from annual
tranche vesting to single-point, three-year vesting.
The vesting of PSRs is subject to the satisfaction of the component measures outlined in the table below, measured independently
of each other.
The Company’s officers and certain other employees may be invited to join the Company’s PSR plan on an annual basis.

Performance and development
All of our permanent employees participate in performance and development conversations on a quarterly basis. The outcomes of
the end-of-year conversations inform decisions regarding remuneration adjustments in accordance with the Company’s policy.
Annual remuneration review
The Board is responsible for the overall remuneration strategy and for reviewing and setting the remuneration of the CEO. The
Remuneration and Nominations Committee is responsible for reviewing and setting the remuneration of the direct reports of the CEO
and advising the Board on the remuneration of the CEO. The Board sets the total pool available for remuneration of our employees
at the time the annual budget is approved.
To underpin our remuneration decision making and ensure our employees are paid appropriately, we use a benchmarking job
matching approach utilising market data from several external remuneration consultancies.
Equal pay
At Kiwi Property, we are committed to follow the principles outlined in our Diversity and Inclusion Policy in all our daily activities
including undertaking an annual equal pay review to assess the impact of gender on the pay and participation of women in the
workforce, and to ensure unconscious bias does not impact remuneration decisions.

> Total MAT is up 6.7% on the previous
period.
> To present a more comparable position,
sales and GOC have been adjusted for
actual days traded to try and eliminate
some of the lockdown impact.
> On this basis, specialty GOC ratios are
broadly in line with the prior year.
> Note: ‘All centres’excludes Centre Place

General note: All sales include GST. 1: Adjusted sales show a pro-rata figure reflecting the same number of days of trade to enable a comparison
between the two periods. It is not a day-to -day comparison but a pro-rata of the total figure.The growth in the adjusted sales is being boosted by
FY22 having a higher daily sales rate, from the days actually traded, than FY21 for many tenants.

NZX RELEASE
23 May 2022
KPG builds momentum with strong FY22 annual
result
• Net profit after tax: $224.3m (+$14.1%)
• Property fair value movement: +$120.5m (+3.5%)
• Net tangible assets per share: $1.45 (+9 cps)
• Net rental income: $187.1m ( +7.8%)
• Operating profit before tax: $124.8m ( +7.3%)
• Adjusted funds from operations: $100.4m ( +12.3%)
• Gearing: 31.6% (FY21 31.2%)
• FY22 cash dividend: 5.60 cps (+8.7%)
Kiwi Property continued to build strategic momentum in the year ended 31 March 2022
(FY22), announcing a strong financial result, including growth in all key operating
metrics. Net profit after tax rose 14.1% to $224.3 million, driven by increases in both
income and asset values.
Improved trading conditions underpinned a 3.5% or $120.5 million gain in the fair value
of the Company’s diversified property portfolio, which was independently valued at
$3.6 billion at year end. Kiwi Property’s office assets experienced a valuation uplift of
3.8% in FY22, with mixed-use up 2.3%. The fair value gain contributed to an increase in
net tangible assets per share, which rose 9 cents per share (cps) to $1.45.
Net rental income increased 7.8% to $187.1 million in FY22, bolstered by a full period of
trading at Sylvia Park’s successful Level 1 expansion. This positive outcome flowed
through to operating profit before tax, which increased 7.3% to $124.8 million, and
adjusted funds from operations (the key determinant of Kiwi Property’s dividend) which
grew 12.3% to over $100 million
1
. This result comes despite Kiwi Property providing $17.4
million of rent relief to support its hardest hit tenants through COVID-19.
Kiwi Property Chief Executive Officer, Clive Mackenzie, said the Company had
performed well in FY22 and entered the new financial year with significant momentum.
“By working closely with our tenants and staying squarely focused on operational
performance we’ve mitigated the impact of COVID-19 and delivered a strong financial
result. It’s particularly pleasing to achieve such broad-based growth, with income, asset
values and profitability all up on last year. We’re looking forward to building on this
robust platform to unlock further value for our stakeholders in FY23.”
Maintaining resilience through COVID-19
Kiwi Property delivered robust rental growth in FY22, with new mixed-use and office
rents up 4.1% and 8.5% respectively. This sustained increase highlights the continued
demand for space in the Company’s assets, with buildings such as the Vero Centre in
Auckland achieving record rents in FY22. In parallel, Kiwi Property also secured rent
2
review growth of 4.2% for its mixed-use portfolio and 4.0% for its office portfolio, enabled
by the high proportion of fixed-rental agreements across the Company’s tenant base.
Total sales were up an impressive 6.7% at Kiwi Property’s shopping and large format
retail (LFR) centres in FY22, with Sylvia Park the standout performer, fueled by the Level 1
expansion and new athleisure precinct.
“Kiwi Property’s ability to unlock additional revenue in disrupted conditions
demonstrates the strength of our assets , which continue to benefit from a flight to
quality. By holding premium assets in key locations, we increase the resilience of our
portfolio, even through a pandemic,” said Mackenzie.
Balance sheet stability
Kiwi Property maintained a solid balance sheet throughout FY22 and had gearing of
31.6% at 31 March 2022, broadly in line with the same time 12 months ago. During the
year, the Company increased its debt facilities by $25 million, as well as agreeing an
additional $100 million debt facility post balance date with new banking panel
member, MUFG, on three, four and five year terms.
Delivering on strategy
Kiwi Property built significant momentum on its ambition to create mixed-use
communities at key metropolitan centres in FY22. By bringing together the best of retail,
office and residential on each site, the Company aims to diversify its revenues, drive
valuation uplift and create enduring assets where Kiwis want to live, work, shop and
play.
Examples of Kiwi Property’s delivery against each of the three pillars of its business
strategy during the year include:
Strategic pillar 1: Intensify mixed-use assets
Sylvia Park build-to-rent
The Company began construction of New Zealand’s first major build-to -rent (BTR)
development at Sylvia Park in November 2021. The $221 million, 295-apartment
complex is the first stage of the Company’s plan to become a leader in this new asset
class in New Zealand, with a second BTR scheme already in planning and the potential
for around 1,200 BTR apartments to be built on the site in the next decade.
3 Te Kehu Way office
Development of a second office building is underway at 3 Te Kehu Way, Sylvia Park.
The $63 million project builds on the success of ANZ Raranga and signals the next
important step towards the creation of a thriving commercial hub. 3 Te Kehu Way will
feature flexible co-working facilities and also cater to the specialist requirements of
medical practitioners. 30% of office space in the building is now committed.
IKEA land sale
In FY22, Kiwi Property reached a conditional agreement to sell IKEA 3.2 hectares of land
on Te Ahoterangi Rise to the east of Sylvia Park shopping centre. The agreement marks
an important step towards Kiwi Property’s aim of welcoming IKEA to the precinct. The
3
Company also announced its intention to develop a complementary 6,430 square
metre LFR c entre, directly adjacent to the land conditionally sold to the iconic retailer.
LynnMall mixed-use tower
Kiwi Property has secured resource consent for its exciting 25-storey LynnMall mixed-use
tower. The development is set to accelerate the centre’s evolution into a thriving
mixed-use community and will feature ground floor retail, three commercial office
levels and 245 BTR apartments. Construction will begin in line with funding and
approval.
“Kiwi Property’s current pipeline of development opportunities is one of the most
exciting in the Company’s history. Thanks to our extensive landholdings, we have
the flexibility to proceed with new projects at our own pace. This is particularly
important in the current market and enables us to undertake development activity
when input costs and market conditions are supportive,” said Mackenzie.
Strategic pillar 2: Grow with third party capital
Following detailed analysis to identify its preferred initial funds management project,
Kiwi Property has begun the process of establishing a standalone CBD office co-
investment platform. This activity is underway, with the market to be updated in due
course.
Kiwi Property Chair, Mark Ford, said he was pleased the Company was making
substantive progress on its ambition to grow with third party capital.
“Ensuring the optimal funding of our development pipeline is a key consideration and
something we are highly attuned to. We’re excited to be moving ahead with our funds
management programme and believe this opportunity will attract significant interest.
We look forward to sharing more information shortly,” said Ford.
The Company also has a range of other funding mechanisms available, including asset
sales and/or the introduction of capital partners across one or more of its mixed-use
properties, such as Sylvia Park, LynnMall or Drury.
Strategic pillar 3: Empower customer success
Harnessing the power of data and digital will be increasingly important to the success
of major property companies in the years ahead. Kiwi Property is making strategic
investments in this space, with the aim of unlocking additional areas of competitive
advantage, business insight and operational efficiency.
Work is currently underway on a range of digital tools that will help empower tenant
performance, including a bespoke ‘customer hub’ and the implementation of a new
enterprise resource planning (ERP) system. This once in a decade expenditure will help
support Kiwi Property’s growth ambitions, particularly as it ramps up its BTR and funds
management activities.
4
Drury gains approval
Kiwi Property’s Drury Private Plan Change application was approved in May 2022,
unlocking development of its 53-hectare site, which is set to be the location for the new
Drury Town Centre. The Company intends to create a thriving mixed-use community
that will become a hub for the 60,000 people who are expected to move into the area
over the next 25 years. A Stage 1 earthworks consent has been issued by Auckland
Council and this work is now underway.
Stepping up on sustainability
Kiwi Property achieved a number of sustainability milestones in 2022, reinforcing its
standing as a leader in ESG within New Zealand’s property sector. This month the
Company announced plans to build New Zealand’s largest rooftop solar installation at
Sylvia Park, featuring almost a hectare of photovoltaic panels. The array will
produce
enough electricity annually to power the average household for over 200 years, or charge
over 60,000 electric vehicles.
Kiwi Property realised a 60% reduction in operational
emissions in 2022, compared to its 2012 baseline and is on track to meet its ambitious
target of becoming net carbon negative in its operations by 2030.
Dividend and guidance
Kiwi Property will pay a final cash dividend of 2.85 cps for the six-months ended
31 March 2022, up from the 2.75 cps interim dividend. Payment will be made on
22 June 2022. Kiwi Property’s total cash dividend for FY22 amounts to 5.60 cps, an
increase of 8.7% on the 5.15 cps paid in the prior year. The Company is targeting a FY23
cash dividend of no less than 5.70 cps
2
.
FY23 Outlook
Ford said the Company was focused on generating value for stakeholders in FY23 and
beyond.
“Kiwi Property delivered a strong operating performance in FY22, however our share
price has trailed expectations. Some of this mispricing is likely due to macroeconomic
factors beyond our control but in FY23 we will continue to focus squarely on those that
are. This includes moving forward with the launch of our CBD office co-investment
platform, making substantial progress on the Sylvia Park BTR and 3 Te Kehu Way
developments, and intensively managing our assets.
“We’ve worked hard over recent years to evolve Kiwi Property into a creator of thriving
mixed-use communities. As we head into the new financial year, the benefits of our
transformation efforts move closer, unlocking exciting opportunities for the Company
and its shareholders,” Ford concluded.

Kiwi Property made
significant progress
on the delivery of our
Sustainability Strategy
in the 2022 financial
year (FY22), despite the
impact of COVID-19.
More than ever, environmental and
social considerations are central
to our broader business agenda
and our purpose of “Creating
Connected Communities” and as
such we have strived to have them
embedded in all our governance
processes.
Over the past 12 months we
have concentrated our efforts
on three priority areas: Places,
People and Partnerships. This
focused approach has enabled
impressive results in several key
areas, the stories of which are
featured in case studies
throughout this report.
While we still have more work
to do, we’re pleased with the
progress we’re making towards
improving the wellbeing of people
in and around our communities.
We hope you feel the same.
We believe strongly that what
gets measured gets done, so we
have clear targets, aligned to
the United Nations Sustainable
Development Goals (UNSDGs),
that enable the company’s
sustainability performance to
be evaluated. Our efforts are
closely governed and guided by
Kiwi Property’s Environmental,
Social and Governance (ESG)
Committee and Leadership team.
The establishment of these groups
in 2020 effectively formalised the
philosophy already inherent in
our business: that the buildings
and places we develop and
manage should be sustainable
in the full sense of the word.
While there’s still much to do,
we’re committed to taking the
steps today to create a brighter
future for the generations of
tomorrow. A tangible example of
this outlook is our commitment to
becoming net carbon negative in
our operations by 2030; nearly 20
years ahead of the Government’s
target. By challenging ourselves to
achieve this milestone in just over
eight years, we embed the
necessary discipline in our
planning and practices today
and contribute to a greater impact
for tomorrow.
We’re also looking at ways to
address the issue of embodied
carbon, particularly in our
development activities. The
challenges are significant and will
require an industry wide solution.
We are also proactively examining
the issue of modern slavery, ahead
of anticipated changes to
New Zealand’s legislation in this
area. While Kiwi Property certainly
isn’t the largest business in the
country, we have the scale,
footprint and resources to be a
force for good. We take this
responsibility seriously.
Our aim for FY23 is to achieve our
own sustainability ambitions while
helping drive systemic change.
True sustainability success isn’t
measured by what we do in
isolation. The impact we have on
the people and organisations
around us will resonate across our
communities, making a real and
lasting difference. We’ve
made great progress towards
our sustainability targets this
year, building on the work that
went before, but the best is yet
to come. Please take the time
to read our report to get a fuller
sense of all our achievements
over the last year and plans for
the future.
Ngā mihi,
Mark Powell

Sustainability has
been a priority for Kiwi
Property for 20 years.
As a developer and curator of
mixed-use communities, we
believe that the best way for our
business to do well, is by doing
good; environmentally, socially
and financially. In the wake of
COVID-19, our commitment to
sustainability has never been more
important. The pandemic has
highlighted the importance of
enhancing the wellbeing of the
people in and around our assets -
helping to create a better future
for Aotearoa New Zealand.
Progress
Kiwi Property made important
strides towards the achievement
of our sustainability targets in
FY22. Through a concerted effort
by our operations and
management teams, we achieved
a 60% reduction in our annual
operational Greenhouse Gas
(GHG) emissions, compared to our
2012 base year.
We will continue looking for every
opportunity to build on those
reductions.
Solar energy has a vital role to play
in meeting our onsite energy
needs and has the potential to
substantially reduce our residual
carbon footprint. Earlier this month
we reached an agreement with
Meridian that will see us create
New Zealand’s largest rooftop
solar installation at Sylvia Park.
This array will boost Sylvia Park’s
solar output to a peak capacity
of 1.21 MWp and produce enough
electricity to supply over 50% of
Sylvia Park’s common areas. As
we grow the Sylvia Park precinct,
we will continue increasing our
onsite renewable energy
generation. This work, along with
a significant 9% reduction in water
consumption since 2012, shows
the precinct can grow sustainably
and responsibly.
Our focus on wellbeing came to
the fore in several tangible ways
in FY22. We supported Waikato-
Tainui and the Waikato District
Health Board to create the
region’s largest vaccination centre
at Te Awa, The Base and worked
closely with Be. Lab and the Safe
Space Alliance to ensure all Kiwis
have access to, and feel welcome
in, our assets. We also continued
to provide rental abatements for
our tenants hardest hit by
COVID-19, easing their financial
pressure, helping them to retain
employees and maintain business
operations through COVID-19.
We were very encouraged by the
response to our recent Green Bond
offer. The offer raised $150 million
and was oversubscribed,
highlighting the market’s support
for Kiwi Property’s sustainability
programme and the potential
opportunities to pursue ESG linked
capital sources. Equally, our initial
Global Real Estate Sustainability
Benchmark (GRESB) rating is a
source of immense pride, with Kiwi
Property performing strongly
compared to its peers in the sector.
Our overall rating of 80 (out of 100)
demonstrates the strength of our
ESG performance and is a
particularly strong result for a
first-time participant.
Outlook
While Kiwi Property made
important progress on its
Sustainability Strategy in FY22
there is still much to do. We
have ambitious goals and are
committed to working with our
stakeholders to support wellbeing
in our communities, drive business
value and help create a brighter
tomorrow for all Kiwis.
Thank you for taking the time to
read our FY22 Sustainability
Report. We hope you enjoy it.

Materiality
No business operates
in isolation. We are
connected to, and
affected by, a range of
stakeholders including
those who invest in
us, shop with us or
lease space in our
buildings. Our retail
and mixed-use assets
are often the heart of a
community, so we have
close connections to
the people who live and
work there.
In FY21, we undertook a
comprehensive materiality
assessment to determine the
issues that were most important to
our stakeholders and where we
can have the biggest and most
relevant impact. The process
identified the wellbeing of our
communities – or more
specifically, how best to integrate
wellbeing into the design and
development of our mixed-use
assets – as the topic that
resonated most strongly with our
stakeholders. As a result, it
became the focus of our
sustainability programme.
In FY22 we completed a
management review of the
materiality assessment to ensure
our efforts continued to focus on
the right issues.
The outcome of this review is
graphically depicted on the
opposite page., with the the
highest ranked issues shown in the
top right quadrant. These are:
1. The wellbeing of our
communities (1)
2. Climate change (6)
3. Reducing waste (5)
4. Efficient use of resources (11)
Importantly, the materiality
assessment does far more than
inform us about our stakeholders’
concerns. It ensures the key issues
identified are prioritised within our
Sustainability Strategy and
supporting action plans.

Kiwi Property’s
sustainability and
business strategies
are fully integrated,
ensuring the alignment
of our environmental,
social and business
decisions. This reflects
our belief that we’ll
only be successful over
the long term if the
communities where we
operate are successful
as well.
Climate, regulatory, technological
and societal factors are all key
considerations in our development
and investment decisions. By
placing sustainability at the heart
of our planning and practices we
help ensure the performance of
our assets for generations to
come. Nowhere is this outlook
more evident than in our proactive
approach to climate-related risk
reporting, which we’ve prepared
with reference to the
recommendations of the Task
Force on Climate-related Financial
Disclosures (TCFD). See page 38
for further details.
Our Sustainability Strategy
features three pillars - Places,
People and Partnerships. Each
pillar has its own key actions and
targets, which are aligned to the
UNSDGs, and are outlined on
pages 14, 22 and 30 of this report.
By delivering against these three
pillars we will enhance the
wellbeing of people in and around
our communities and help address
the key issue identified during the
materiality assessment process.
Sustainability
Strategy
Kiwi Property does more than develop buildings. We create connected
communities that bring together the best of retail, office, residential and
open spaces in a way that enhances the wellbeing of the people in them.
It’s about curating places that are environmentally and economically
sustainable, and where people feel positive, connected, and cared for.
Wellbeing means different things
to different people and in some
ways, it is hard to define. But it
certainly reflects what our
stakeholders expect of us and
our own belief that the places
we create can make a positive
and tangible difference in
people’s lives.
The delivery of our Sustainability
Strategy is overseen by our ESG
Committee, made up of Kiwi
Property directors, who provide
valuable strategic insight, as well
as helping to identify and act on
ESG risks to our business and
sustainability agenda.

Places
As one of the country’s largest
listed property companies, we aim
to lead on sustainability, actively
reducing our operational emissions
and working with our partners to
decrease water, waste and energy
use. We design and construct
properties which, where possible,
are independently rated against
recognised industry standards.
For our assets to be successful
over the long-term, robust
sustainability credentials are just
the beginning; they also need to
be great places to visit, work and
live. That’s why we’re stepping up
our focus on the spaces between
the buildings, providing green
precincts, engaging artworks and
a carefully curated mix of services.
Climate change
is a major threat
to New Zealand’s
environment, economy
and communities.

Create spaces
that promote
wellbeing
Promoting wellbeing
through art
Art can draw people into an
environment, make them feel
welcome, create a sense of
community and reinforce a place’s
unique identity. When people find
places more inviting and attractive
they stay longer and come back
more frequently. This is important
at our shopping centres because
happy customers tend to take more
time shopping and as a result
spend more with our retailers.
In our office buildings, such as
the Vero Centre, spaces that
offer workers respite in a busy
day or provide a place to informally
do business enhance the overall
tenant experience.
Creating beautiful and engaging
assets has always been important
to Kiwi Property but more than
ever we’re using art and
installations across our portfolio to
connect people with each other
and the spaces around them, while
also celebrating the talent of local
New Zealand artists.
Commissioned pieces at Sylvia
Park include a range of sculptures
including Kiwi artist Simon Lewis
Wards’ 375 piece ‘spilling jets’ and
the installation of the giant knuckle
bone seats. Elsewhere in the
centre, Levi Hawkin’s “Love is a
Relief” installation is a prominent
fixture in the Level 1 expansion,
while multimedia artist Dali
Susanto’s “Eat Your Heart Out”
piece welcomes patrons to the
Terrace Dining lane.
Incorporating art within the design
of a building enables us to
celebrate local communities, their
history and culture. The Taonga trail
at Te Awa, The Base, acknowledges
the place of Waikato-Tainui as
mana whenua in the region, as well
as Kiwi Property’s joint venture
partner. The “eye of the needle”
pou provides spiritual protection
at the key entrance to Te Awa,
the enclosed mall, and encourages
visitors to make connections and
collaborate as equals to achieve
common goals.
The centre’s floor tiles are laid in
patterns representing the flow of
Te Awa, the Waikato River, with its
quiet pools, its powerful rapids
and its value as a food source to
Waikato-Tainui.
Enhancing the wellbeing of our communities is the foundation of our
Sustainability Strategy. We do this in a variety of ways across our property
portfolio by enhancing not just the buildings we own and operate, but
also the spaces between those buildings, where people connect.
Kiwi Property
Sustainability Report 2022

Overhead a representation of
a traditional eel trap has been
created in cedar, while other design
features celebrate the Tainui waka.
Reimagining the spaces
between buildings
Creating a sense of wellbeing at
our assets is about more than
compelling and engaging artwork.
In parallel, we are reimagining the
spaces between buildings as
opportunities to help make people
feel welcome, safe and to connect
them with nature.
At LynnMall, for example, colourful
murals in the carpark area welcome
customers and provide a colourful
reminder of their car’s location.
These murals also celebrate and
acknowledge the diversity of West
Auckland’s communities.
At Sylvia Park, we’re working
to make the pedestrian journey
from the railway station to our
centre more interesting, engaging
and safe through walkways
lined with interlaced, pleached
trees and shaded with canopies
planted with climbers, and
brightened with lighting waterfalls
at night. We’re also exploring
opportunities to enliven areas
like external stairways, walkways
and carparks by “carpeting” them
in coloured patterns.
Using colour in seats, planters and
other landscaping features also
warms spaces in between
buildings, while creative lighting
provides the chance to
simultaneously entertain visitors
and illuminate our assets. There’s
no limit to the options available to
welcome people into our places.
Our greenfields development
at Drury provides the opportunity
to create an environment with
great placemaking at its core.
By connecting people, buildings,
and experiences, we encourage
customer visitation, increase
tenant demand and promote
interest in residential precincts.
In this way, we can create a
competitive advantage for Kiwi
Property and enhance the
experience of our customers.

Reduce our
environmental
footprint
This is a great result, but we think
we can do more. Our Sustainability
Strategy sets the goal of Kiwi
Property becoming net carbon
negative in our operations by
2030. Achieving this milestone 20
years ahead of the Government’s
own targets is a work in progress,
but the small actions we take each
day will compound to make a big
difference in the years to come.
We’ve been working hard to reduce our carbon footprint since 2012 and
are proud that in the 10 years since we started, we’ve achieved a 60%
reduction in our annual operational GHG emissions.
New Zealand’s largest
rooftop solar array
In May 2022 we signed a deal
with Meridian that will increase
Sylvia Park’s already significant
solar array, including adding
panels to the roofs of ANZ
Raranga and the shopping
centre’s Level 1 expansion.
Following this ambitious increase,
Sylvia Park will be home to
New Zealand’s largest rooftop
solar installation, with a peak
capacity of over one megawatt.
The arrays will generate enough
electricity to power over 50% of
the common areas in the Sylvia
Park shopping centre, reducing
Kiwi Property’s overall operational
emissions by 7%.
We’ll continue to assess
opportunities to extend solar
to other assets and across our
development pipeline. While this
method of power generation isn’t
suited to, or financially viable at,
all of our assets, we are focused
on identifying long-term carbon
reduction opportunities.
Kiwi Property
Sustainability Report 2022

Reducing water
consumption
As we expand our mixed-use
communities, we’re reducing our
water consumption by harvesting
more rainwater and hunting down
leaks. At Sylvia Park, a diligent and
proactive approach, coupled with
increased harvesting capacity,
has seen a 9% reduction in water
use in 2022, compared to pre-
COVID-19 peak usage. Not only is
this good for the environment, it
also benefits our bottom line as
our consumption decreases.
Our view is rainwater is too
precious to waste. We use it on
the green spaces at our assets, to
flush the toilets in our shopping
centres, and for washing the
external facades of our buildings.
By reducing our requirement for
potable water we also help protect
our assets from potential supply
constraints, when periods of
drought occur, such as we saw in
Auckland in 2020.
While commercial buildings
avoided the sort of water
restrictions that were placed on
households over recent years, the
work we’re doing now to reduce
water consumption will pay
dividends if restrictions are
implemented in the future.
Our Sylvia Park experience has
also shown the value of leak
detection in reducing costs and
ensuring full availability of
harvested water for irrigation and
use in amenities.

Develop
sustainable
buildings
Embedding
sustainability at
3 Te Kehu Way
According to the New Zealand
Green Building Council, buildings
and their construction accounts for
as much as 20% of New Zealand’s
total emissions. As part of our
Sustainability Strategy and target of
being net carbon negative in our
operations by 2030 we’re ensuring
our development programme is
raising the bar through a focus on
consistent environmental
improvement. That’s why our new
office development at 3 Te Kehu
Way, was designed and built
with the aim of achieving a 6 Green
Star rating.
We’re in the business of creating assets that will last. It’s important
we invest our capital to establish a property portfolio that is both
environmentally and economically sustainable. Incorporating best practice
design, materials and building practices into our developments helps to
future-proof them, the revenue they generate and our business overall.
To meet this rating, 3 Te Kehu
Way’s planning, development and
construction must meet stringent
standards in eight separate
categories: emissions, energy,
indoor environmental quality,
innovation, land use and ecology,
materials, transport management
and water.
3 Te Kehu Way was designed with
sustainability in mind. Externally,
the building will offer widespread
rainwater harvesting and
reticulation, as well as a
large rooftop solar array.
Internal features include
generous windows that ensure
plentiful amounts of natural light,
while minimising glare and
external noise. In addition,
specially designed ventilation
systems will help maintain tenant
comfort and reduce artificial
heating or cooling requirements.
Tenant wellbeing has also been at
the forefront of the building’s
design ethos. High-quality
amenities, extensive end-of-trip
facilities and easy access to trains,
buses and the Southern Motorway
make 3 Te Kehu Way an extremely
attractive employee proposition.
Not only that, but with Sylvia
Park’s shopping centre just next
door and the future BTR
apartment complex just down the
road, people will be able to work,
shop, live and play without ever
leaving the precinct.

Bringing ESG to life at
Sylvia Park BTR
When New Zealand’s first major
BTR development opens at Sylvia
Park in 2024, it won’t just establish
a new resident-centric approach
to renting, it will also set a new
standard for sustainability. The
scheme is targeting a 7 Homestar
rating from the NZ Green Building
Council, highlighting its superior
environmental performance.
In keeping with Sylvia Park’s
high sustainability standards,
the new residential complex will
include photovoltaic panels for
solar energy, rainwater capture
systems that minimise the use
of potable water and charging
stations for electric vehicles.
Passive design, which
uses efficient heating and
cooling systems to maintain
comfortable temperatures,
as well as good ventilation,
will be a feature of the apartment
building. During development,
construction practices will focus
on waste minimisation.
Our commitment to accessibility is
reflected in the inclusion of design
choices in our BTR buildings that
are specifically for the needs of
those with mobility challenges.
Kiwi Property’s ambition
to make the Sylvia Park BTR
development highly sustainable
isn’t just about doing the right
thing. With residents becoming
ever-more focused on their
homes’ green credentials, our
environmental commitment will
help make the apartments even
more attractive to potential
tenants, helping stimulate
demand, drive competitive
differentiation and potentially
higher rental returns.

Foster wellbeing
in our communities
In FY22, we undertook a broad
range of activities designed to
enhance the wellbeing of the
people in our assets, ranging from
our Kiwifit fitness programme
through to our new collaboration
with the Mental Health Foundation.
We’re proud of what we’ve
achieved with these initiatives and
we’re just getting started.
It takes more than just great places to foster wellbeing. Providing safe,
attractive, accessible assets is vital, but it’s people and connections that
underpin successful community creation. This view is fundamental to our
approach to asset management and is the foundation upon which we
curate our mixed-use, office and retail portfolios.
Tackling COVID-19
at The Base
Te Awa, The Base is as much a
community hub as it is a shopping
centre. The property is a drawcard
for people from across the
Waikato, who are attracted by its
unique Māori architecture,
outstanding retail mix and
extensive range of entertainment
options. So, when we were
approached by Waikato-Tainui and
the Waikato District Health Board
to support the establishment of
the region’s largest COVID-19
vaccination centre, we were
delighted to play our part.
The facility, located on Te Awa’s
first floor was opened by the
Māori King, Kiingi Tuuheitia, in July
2021 and has administered more
than 50,000 vaccinations to date.
We’ve helped to drive
participation through a range of
initiatives, including extended
opening hours, a dedicated
marketing campaign and $1,000
gift card giveaways to incentivise
customer participation in the
nationwide ‘Super Saturday’
vaccination event.
The vaccination centre has played
an important part in enabling more
than 90% of people from the
Waikato region to become double

vaccinated, with booster rates
climbing every day. Increasing the
local vaccination rate not only
helps to keep the local community
safe, it also benefits our tenants.
Reducing the severity and
prevalence of COVID-19 is vital
in order to avoid further
lockdowns, minimise employee
absence and maintain strong
customer numbers.
Keeping Kiwis fit
Every Monday and Wednesday
between 6.45 am and 8 am,
LynnMall bursts into life as
members of the local community
turn out to take part in our free
Kiwifit programme.
Kiwifit invites people to walk
around our shopping centres,
under the watchful eye of Les Mills
personal trainers, offering a safe,
dry and friendly environment for
locals to socialise before stores
open, while getting themselves in
shape. The programme has been
helping Kiwis stay fit and healthy
for 25 years, with three people
who took part in the first walk at
LynnMall in 1997 still regularly
turning out to participate.
While the stores might be
closed early in the morning,
there’s always time for a coffee,
a little window shopping and
participants also receive discounts
from supporting retailers.
Also on offer is our
complementary Kiwibubs
programme, which provides
parents with support and
practical advice, to help them
navigate life with young children.
Becoming a new mum or dad is
a rewarding experience but it
can also be isolating, especially
for first timers. Kiwibubs helps
new parents connect with others
in a similar situation so they can
share and benefit from each
other’s experiences.

Embrace
diversity
By making our places open to all,
we create a more welcoming,
inclusive atmosphere for visitors
and ensure those working in our
buildings are well supported to be
independent. As far as possible,
we aim to remove barriers that
make access difficult, ensuring our
shopping centres and offices can

Supporting people
at our assets with
complex needs
While accessible toilets have
always been available at Sylvia
Park, we’ve recognised they’re not
always suitable for those with
more complex needs. As a result,
As we develop our mixed-use communities, we’re mindful that we want to
enable greater accessibility for all. We have partnered with Be. Lab whose
vision is for New Zealand to become the most accessible nation in the
world. Their guidance, advice and assessments have enabled us to achieve
gold or platinum accessibility ratings in all of our eligible core assets.
what should be an enjoyable day
out for these people and their
carers can become a physical and
emotional challenge.
To address this issue, a fully
accessible adult change room
facility will open at Sylvia Park in
June 2022, enabling people to
change safely and with dignity.
This will be the second such
change room in the Kiwi Property
portfolio, with our first facility
opening at Te Awa, The Base
in 2021.
The adult change facility includes
an adjustable, adult-sized change
table, a hoist for lifting, shower,
height adjustable table toilet and
hand basin, and wall-mounted
handrails. The layout provides
easy access for larger wheelchairs
and provides room for carers
to move easily. Entry is provided
via a call-button at the door,
alerting security who remotely
unlock the door.
We will continue looking for
opportunities to enhance the
accessibility of our properties,
as we strive to bring our
communities to life for all
New Zealanders.

Working with Iwi to
name Sylvia Park streets
Kiwi Property has enjoyed a long
and collaborative relationship with
local Māori at Sylvia Park and has
been working with mana whenua
for up to 20 years.
The place names at the Sylvia Park
precinct honour the rich cultural
history of the land and the mana of
those connected to it. In 2022, the
site was given the name of
Kohirangatira, acknowledging the
son of Te Kehu and Te Putu, whose
bloodline flows through all tribes
who have a relationship with the
land at Sylvia Park.
We also worked with Iwi to
identify names for the main streets
at the site, as a means of
recognising key figures who have
gone before. These include:
• Te Kehu Way - the ring road
surrounding Kohirangatira,
which will soon be home to
our latest office development.
• Te Putu Avenue and Te Tata
Avenue – located on the
western side of Kohirangatira,
which commemorate both
the chieftainess Te Putu, a
direct descendant of Tipa,
and Te Tata, the Upoko riki
(customary leader) of Tauoma
and Mauinaina.
• Mahora Way, on the north
side of Sylvia Park, named
after the Ngāti Pāoa high
born chieftainess.
• Te Ahoterangi Rise – which
commemorates Te Ahoterangi,
son of Te Putu and Te Kehu.
There is plenty still to do to
enhance the way we engage with
Māori as mana whenua, but we’re
committed to fostering stronger
partnerships with Iwi as we seek
out new ways to create thriving
long-term communities that
connect with and engage all
New Zealanders.

Enable our
team to succeed
Making work more flexible for
our people is a priority, alongside
improving their experience,
engagement and productivity.
We have created an equitable
work environment where
inclusion is deeply embedded
and our people are encouraged
to be themselves.
People – whether in our own business or in our communities - are our
focus. Kiwi Property’s success relies on our people being ready and
motivated to perform. We have a talented team, our engagement is
building and we are growing capability to support our strategy.
Building cultural
competency at Kiwi
Property
Kiwi Property is committed to
building enduring partnerships
with Māori, given their standing
as mana whenua. That is why
we have formed a cross-functional
steering group to ensure that
Te Ao Māori is considered in our
decision-making and that we’re
connecting with Māori in an
authentic and meaningful way.
The group’s formation is part of a
broader initiative to improve Kiwi
Property’s cultural competence.
As part of these efforts, in 2021
our Executive Team and senior
business leaders undertook the
Te Kaa programme conducted
by Maurea Consulting. The course
covered topics such as Te Reo
Māori, Tikanga Māori and Te Tiriti
o Waitangi. The programme also
included sessions on the
aspirations of Māori today, how
to engage with mana whenua
and the opportunities within the
Māori economy.
Kiwi Property
Sustainability Report 2022

Through Te Kaa, we’ve begun to
develop a greater awareness of
Māori cultures and values. While
we’re still early on our journey of
understanding it’s one we’re
deeply committed to, as we strive
to better work with, engage and
include Māori within our business
and connected communities.
Working with
community groups
For our annual employee
volunteering day, we encouraged
our people to work on grassroots
projects that have a positive
impact on the physical and mental
wellbeing of the communities
where we operate.
For members of our Auckland
team, getting involved with OKE, a
charity implementing a “Growing a
Future” initiative in primary schools
across South Auckland was a
logical choice. OKE provides fully
functioning gardens to each
school, enabling teachers and the
local community to get growing.
As OKE says, gardens do a lot
more than produce vegetables.
They promote wellbeing in
multiple ways. Tamariki learn the
mighty chip comes from a potato,
they develop hands-on skills to
share with Mum and Dad in
growing vegies at home and the
garden is a place to teach
everything from science to healthy
eating. Everyone can pitch in,
regardless of their academic or
physical abilities and they have the
satisfaction of seeing a little work
turned into delicious food. The
gardens may even plant the seeds
for a future career in horticulture
or food science.
In 2021, we partnered with
Riverina School near Sylvia Park to
establish a school garden, building
and planting the raised beds,
constructing a shed to house tools
and equipment and making sure
everything is in place to make the
project sustainable.
Since then, students have been
weeding and tending the plants,
and taking their crops home for
family meals. The Riverina gardens
have produced enough vegetables
to share with teachers and the
school community, and when
the school produced kai boxes
for local distribution on the last
day of term, fresh produce was
picked from the garden as a
finishing touch.
Pandemic restrictions have
constrained our volunteering
efforts this year, but certainly not
our enthusiasm or commitment.
We look forward to making up for
lost time now that COVID-19
restrictions have lifted.

Partnerships
While Kiwi Property has a large
footprint, only through collective
action will we drive lasting social
and environmental change and
help create a brighter future
for Aotearoa New Zealand. It’s
for this reason we’ve identified
‘partnerships’ as the third pillar of
our Sustainability Strategy.
Partnerships can take many forms,
from informal support for our
tenants who are working on their
own sustainability goals, to
creating strategic charity
partnerships, or assisting non-
profits to establish community
wellbeing programmes. We’re
also focused on leveraging our
scale to become a force for good
and promoting a sector-wide shift
to more sustainable procurement
and development.
We believe strongly
in the power of
partnerships. By
working with others,
we’re able to achieve
more, reach more
people and make
the best use of our
resources.

Supporting the Mental
Health Foundation
Kiwi Property and the Mental
Health Foundation have ‘improving
wellbeing’ as a common goal.
For us, it’s about the wellbeing of
the communities where we
operate and the people we work
with, while the Mental Health
Foundation is committed to
creating an Aotearoa free from
discrimination, where all people
enjoy positive mental health
and wellbeing. Our ambitions
are closely aligned – to create
places where people can thrive
and be happy.
Supporting the wellbeing of the diverse groups in and around our
communities requires specialist knowledge and expertise. We proudly
partner with some of the best mental health, diversity and accessibility
organisations in New Zealand to help ensure we’re maximising our impact
and creating positive change.
This alignment made The Mental
Health Foundation a natural
choice when we sought out a
charity to help us create connected
communities. Following a
formalisation of our support early
in the 2022 calendar year, we’ve
agreed a shared set of goals
and a programme of activity.
Our collaboration will come to
life for the first time on Pink Shirt
Day 2022 - an antibullying
campaign that celebrates diversity
and the creation of inclusive
environments where all people can
feel safe, valued and respected.
Each year, workplaces, schools,
organisations and individuals join
the movement to make a stand
against bullying, which is a serious
issue in New Zealand. Later in the
year, we will also play an important
role supporting Mental Health
Awareness Week, leveraging our
significant footprint and visitor
numbers to shine a light on this
important issue.
Partner with others
to enhance the wellbeing
of our customers
Kiwi Property

Our support for these programmes
connects directly to the issues that
our stakeholders have told us are
most important, namely protecting
the vulnerable, ensuring people
have access to mental health
services and enhancing wellbeing
in our communities.
Beyond Pink Shirt Day and Mental
Health Awareness week, we will
continue working to identify other
opportunities to support the
Foundation through initiatives
including volunteering, payroll
giving and the provision of space
for community activities. We look
forward to working together to
make a difference.
Creating safe spaces
at our assets
The safety of our people, tenants
and customers is our top priority.
In 2022 we implemented a range
of enhanced systems and
processes to increase the security
of people at our properties, as
well as guard against emerging
digital threats.
Measures implemented over the
past year include the appointment
of a new expert security contractor,
as well as the provision of
additional training to guards on
how to effectively de-escalate
conflict situations. Following a
comprehensive trial at LynnMall,
body-worn cameras are being
rolled-out for security personnel at
all our shopping centres, providing
an additional layer of protection to
customers and employees alike.
Other technologies being
introduced or upgraded include
enhanced CCTV and video
analytics, which allows rapid
detection of suspicious behaviour,
enabling faster intervention if the
need arises.
Kiwi Property’s security working
committee, made up of senior
managers and external partners,
meet regularly to ensure we’re on
top of the latest trends and
following best practice guidelines.
We also continue to work closely
with the New Zealand Police.
A working group was formed
between Kiwi Property and the
New Zealand Police in 2021 in
order to discuss how we can
respond to changing societal
conditions, with the objective of
maintaining safe and welcoming
environments for our communities.
While security isn’t a topic we
often talk about, it’s something
we take very seriously. The only
way we can create a thriving
community is by first ensuring
that everyone in it feels safe.

Supporting tenants
through the pandemic
COVID-19 continued to impact our
tenants in 2022, with the
combination of lockdowns and
Omicron having a negative effect
on trading conditions. While the
pandemic has created significant
uncertainty among smaller retailers
and hospitality operators in
particular, we’ve strived to be a
source of stability and partnership
through this challenging period.
When COVID-19 first hit
New Zealand the lockdowns
that followed were swift and
Kiwi Property will only be successful if our tenants are too. It’s through
them that we connect with visitors to our assets and as such, they play
a pivotal role in bringing our communities to life. In FY22 we once again
partnered with our tenants to create outstanding environments for people
to shop, work and play.
nationwide. Those that took place
following the arrival of Omicron in
January 2022 however were more
targeted, shifting from one region
to another as alert levels rose and
fell. For our team that meant
adopting a nuanced approach,
working alongside individual
tenants, some with multiple stores
across our portfolio, so we could
better understand the challenges
they were facing and develop a
suitable response. Our aim was to
resolve abatement requests
promptly to give tenants some
measure of certainty in their
financial planning.
In our properties where
supermarkets or other essential
services operated, we made sure
customers could readily access
those shops in an otherwise
closed centre. As restrictions
eased, we worked closely with
tenants to provide the
infrastructure for click and collect
sales, creating clean, safe and
easily accessible collection points.
Kiwi Property provided over
$17 million of rent relief to the
tenants hardest hit by COVID-19 in
2022. That’s a significant cost to
our business but supporting our
tenants through the pandemic isn’t

just the right thing to do, it’s the
smart thing as well. The provision

to those most affected by the
pandemic provides income
security and supports the
businesses to keep trading. As a
result, we maintained 99.8%
occupied assets at year end and
gave our tenants the best chance
of bouncing back strongly once
normal trading resumed.
While the pandemic isn’t over yet,
as the country’s focus shifts to
living with the virus, we are now
working with tenants to encourage
people back to our centres to
rediscover the fun and enjoyment

Helping make our
supply chain more
sustainable
Kiwi Property is a significant
purchaser of goods and services.
Operational contracts for cleaning,
security, utilities, maintenance or
waste management are often
worth tens of thousands of dollars.
When we develop new buildings,
capital expenditure can reach into
the tens of millions.
Every dollar spent is an
opportunity to do what’s right
and encourage positive change
throughout our value chain.
When we released our refreshed Sustainability Strategy last year, one
of our key commitments was to develop and implement sustainability
guidelines for inclusion in our procurement policies and processes.
In 2022, we delivered on this ambition, rolling out a new framework
that embeds sustainability decision-making in all areas of our business.
This process often begins by
asking the right questions.
How much of the power you’re
supplying comes from renewable
sources? What is the carbon
footprint of your products?
Questions like these are used by
Kiwi Property to ensure we make
informed procurement decisions
that support sustainable
businesses and mitigate potential
reputational or regulatory risks to
our own business.
Fully integrating sustainability
considerations into our
procurement practices is a
multiyear journey as we evolve

To be successful we will need to
work in partnership with our

employer relations are strictly
regulated by the Employment
Relations Act. We also maintain
robust internal policies and
systems to ensure we’re
complying with our legal and
contractual obligations, and to
manage entitlements relating
to our people.
While we have confidence in our
own processes, we recognise that
modern slavery is a very real risk
and cannot be ignored. That’s why
we are aiming to support long-
term systemic change throughout
our supply chains and our
objective is to, over time,
build a robust and comprehensive
modern slavery framework.
We will take a continuous
improvement view of this
important work and will work
with our suppliers in a staged,
focused and systematic approach.
This will take time, but we remain
committed to taking action where
we can, to address modern slavery
in New Zealand.

It’s hard to believe that in 2022
slavery is an issue anywhere, let
alone in New Zealand, where we
pride ourselves of our

Unfortunately worker exploitation
and modern slavery can take
many forms, ranging from
breaches of minimum employment
standards to more controlling and
coercive behaviour.
Following a high-level review and
discussions at Executive and
Board level we believe that,
fortunately, the risk of modern
slavery is low within our own

Climate-related risks are managed
in accordance with the Kiwi
Property Risk Management
Framework, which is aligned to the
principles of ISO 31000:2018 and
provides the foundation for
managing the risks inherent in
achieving the group’s strategy.
Climate change is listed on our key
risk register, which has resulted in
the development of control
measures and detailed discussion
of climate risk at leadership and
Board levels.
We followed a customised
scenario analysis process
(see further detail in Strategy
below) to generate a set of 15
potential enterprise-level climate-
related risks for Kiwi Property.
The final list of potential climate
risks also benefitted from a review
of risks identified by other leading
property companies globally.
Our proposed climate risks
include five physical risks and
10 transition risks, drawing on the
TCFD’s risk typology.
We held a risk assessment
workshop led by consultants, in
which Kiwi Property’s ESG Lead
and National Facilities Manager
selected scores from 1 to 5 for the
likelihood and consequence of
each risk in a pre-control state.
This approach intentionally
harmonised with our Risk
Management Framework, allowing
for treatment of climate-related
risks in a consistent manner to
other enterprise-level risks.
The selection of risk scores
depended to some extent on
market and regulatory conditions
over future years (both nationally
and globally), and on balance
participants assessed risks under
the ‘middle’ scenario, considered
to be the most probable path
forward. This scenario was
characterised as a muddled or
at least inconsistent global and
national response to climate
change, rather than the two
alternatives of a complete lack
of meaningful global response
or a well-coordinated and
comprehensive response.
As a property company, our
climate risks are also interpretable
at asset-level. As such, we
selected three assets – one retail,
one office, one mixed-use –
across two cities to represent
our portfolio, and conducted a
process to explore and score
our climate-risks for each of these
three assets. The same risks
were used at asset-level as at
enterprise-level. Some risks
are geographically specific and
therefore differ in likelihood across
our portfolio, such as the impacts
of sea level rise. Other risks,
such as rising carbon prices,
are of equal likelihood across
all of our assets, though
consequence can still differ by
asset (due to asset class and
design, tenant type, etc.).
Finally, we conduct environment
and climate change reviews as
part of the due diligence process
for the purchase of any new
assets. Environmental and climate
risk data are requested from the
seller, assets are benchmarked
against Kiwi Property’s other
assets and we assess
opportunities for buildings to
be brought up to our standards.
This information informs
recommendations to the Board
on potential purchases, which are
decided based on a large number
of strategic, financial and non-
financial factors. Climate change
risks, environmental impact
and building efficiency add to
the overall decision as non-
financial factors.

Scenarios
To begin identifying and
assessing our climate-related risks,
we developed a set of three
customised scenarios with a
specific focus on the property
sector and the geographical
location of our assets. The purpose
of these scenarios was to provide
a set of coherent, plausible stories
in order to prompt creative
thought and insights about the
risks Kiwi Property could face in
an array of possible future states.
In order to capture both physical
and transition climate risks,
consistent with the TCFD’s
guidance, each of our three
scenarios combined:

of New Zealand’s ‘Zero
Carbon roadmap’.
We reviewed climate scenarios
used by other leading property
companies within New Zealand,
Australia and the United Kingdom,
to ensure consistency and support
best practice for Kiwi Property. In
both their specificity and narrative
depth, the scenarios developed for
us go beyond many of those other
property companies report using
to date.
Our scenarios were used for two
purposes: to generate the set of
physical and transition climate-
related risks later assessed at
enterprise and asset-level; and
secondly, to test the resilience of
Kiwi Property’s business strategy.
Strategy
Kiwi Property
Sustainability Report 2022

Resilience
Broadly speaking, Kiwi Property’s
business strategy is to develop a
portfolio of large, mixed-use
property precincts in major urban
‘node’ locations. Through a guided
exploration of the scenarios above,
this strategy was considered to
provide resilience across the varied
physical and transition parameters
of the three scenarios considered.
For Kiwi Property, our transition
risks derive from stakeholders’
needs from our buildings, while our
physical risks relate to preparing for
the worst-case climate (and
therefore weather event) scenarios.
Both sets of risks point us in the
same direction – ensuring that the
buildings we develop and acquire
are efficient in their use of resources
(including carbon), as well as
resilient to changed climate
conditions and weather events.
This complementarity enables
us to streamline our building
development, capital upgrade
and purchasing decisions towards
meeting mutually beneficial needs,
regardless of whether a
predominantly physical- or transition-
based scenario eventuates.
Our material climate risks
Using scenarios, we generated a list of 15 climate-related risks for
Kiwi Property. Using the process described in Risk Management
(as above), we determined our top climate risks.
Climate risks are identified across three time-horizons – short, medium,
and long – defined according to the nature of our business.
0-3
years
3-10
years
10-30
years
Short-term
Our short-term time
horizon of 0-3 years is
aligned with our Risk
Management Framework
and focused on cost
reduction opportunities
and meeting
organisational priorities,
such as installing solar
arrays where applicable at
our assets.
Medium-term
Our medium-term time
horizon of 3-10 years
reflects the typical tenant
lease cycle (~6-12 years).
This is also the timeframe
over which substantial
upgrades to buildings are
planned and delivered.
Long-term
Our long-term time
horizon of 10-30 years
reflects building life
expectancy (typically up
to 50 years).

Sustainability Report 2022

Kiwi Property signed up to the
Science-based Targets initiative in
2017. At that time our targets were
to reduce absolute emissions 4.2%
year on year from a 2012 baseline,
equating to a 43% reduction by
2025, a 54% reduction by 2030
and an 80% reduction by 2050.
These targets included Scope 1, 2
and 3 emissions.
Our carbon programme has already
reduced emissions from 6,834
tCO
2
-e (adjusted 2012 baseline)
to 2,753 tCO
2
-e, a reduction of
4,081 tCO
2
-e (-60%).
To align with IPCC-based
recommendations for limiting
global warming to under 1.5
degrees Celsius, we further
revised our targets downward and
in 2021 we committed to achieving
net carbon negative in our
operations by 2030.
In 2022, our scope-by-scope
emission (and % reductions since
2012) were as follows:
• Scope 1 (natural gas and
refrigerant): 257 tCO
2
-e (-65%)
• Scope 2 (electricity):
1,635 tCO
2
-e (-41%)
• Scope 3 (council rates,
insurance, management, waste):
861 tCO
2
-e (-74%).
Emissions by scope

Emissions by scope per Net Lettable Area (NLA)
Emission per net lettable area (NLA) is used as Kiwi Property’s intensity
measure to allow like for like comparisons, between different sized
buildings. NLA is the amount of space (m
2
) in a building available for
leasing. In FY22, greenhouse gas emissions per NLA have reduced by 60%
since 2012, from 17kCO
2
e per NLA (2012) to 6.9kCO
2
e per NLA (2022).
kCO

-e per NLA
Tenant electricity use is outside of our operational control and not counted
in our Scope 3, though it does comprise a significant volume of emissions
(10,798 tCO
2
-e in 2012). We therefore have a number of approaches to
support our tenants to reduce their electricity use, including a set of
(non-mandatory) Fitout Guidelines for ensuring sustainable fitouts.
