CHAIRMAN’S REVIEW (PART 1)

ANNUAL MEETING [SLIDE 1]

Good afternoon everyone. My name is Jeff Morrison and I am the Chairman of

Argosy Property Limited. On behalf of my fellow directors and members of the

management team, it is my pleasure to welcome you all to the 2022 annual

meeting of shareholders of Argosy. It is my privilege to be able to chair this meeting

for the second time at the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron.

Before we get things underway we have a couple of housekeeping matters. In the

unlikely event of an emergency, please evacuate the building using the blue

doors at the eastern exit behind you and assemble in the carpark. The bathrooms

are located behind me next to the main reception area.

This years’ annual meeting is Argosy’s third hybrid annual meeting and its certainly

nice to be hosting a face to face meeting again. Shareholders who are not

attending in person can attend virtually and still ask questions and vote, through

the Computershare online virtual meeting platform. Shareholders can also follow

proceedings via the live webcast.


.2

Today’s meeting will focus on our recent strong FY22 results, our long term strategy

for growth and progress around our sustainability strategy where we have some

exciting projects in the pipeline.

Before we get to that, there are a few procedural differences we need to run

through for our hybrid meeting to run smoothly.

[SLIDE 2]

INSTRUCTIONS FOR WEBCAST PARTICIPANTS

For shareholders participating through the live webcast, polling on the three

resolutions has now opened. Votes can be cast by selecting the polling icon on

the instruction screen and following the prompts. Votes can be amended up until

the time the poll closes, which is at the conclusion of the meeting.

Now the meeting has started, questions can also be submitted through the

webcast portal. We have allocated time to address these at the relevant time in

the meeting, but they can be submitted at any stage.

If you experience any technical issues casting your vote or submitting questions,

please refer to the instructions provided in the Virtual Annual Meeting Guide that

accompanied the Notice of Meeting or you can call Computershare on 0800-650-

034.


.3

[SLIDE 3]

With those new procedural matters explained, lets get things underway.

I’d like to record that the Notice of the Meeting was duly given on 19 May 2022

and as there are at least 5 shareholders here today, there is a quorum present.

Accordingly, I declare the 2022 Annual Meeting of Argosy Property Limited - open.

.5

[SLIDE 4]

Seated next to the Board of directors is the Chief Executive, Peter Mence and the

Chief Financial Officer, Dave Fraser. We also have several other members of the

management team here today.

As you know Argosy is reporting its results for a second covid disrupted year and on

behalf of your board I would like extend our collective appreciation to the

management team for another job well done.

I would also like to welcome our auditors, Deloitte, our solicitors, Harmos Horton

Lusk, our Registrar, Computershare and our tax advisors, KPMG, to the meeting.


AGENDA [SLIDE 5]

The agenda for this afternoon’s meeting will be as follows:

• As Chairman, I will deliver a review of Argosy’s 2022 results and strategy;

• This will be followed by a more detailed review of Argosy’s performance by

our Chief Executive, Peter Mence;

• Following Peter’s review, we will take questions from Shareholders;

• We will then move to the formal resolutions of the Meeting;

• And finally, we will then attend to any general business.


.6

After the meeting has been formally closed, please stay for refreshments where

the Directors and Executives of Argosy will be available to discuss any queries you

may have.


PROXIES

Proxies have been received in respect of 352,475,278 shares and these have

been audited by Deloitte. There are 846,723,895 shares on issue.

CHAIRMAN’S INTRODUCTION [SLIDE 6]

I am really pleased to now present to you a summary of the Company’s

performance for the year ended 31 March 2022. You will have received the 2022

Annual Report and financial statements, either by post or electronically,

depending on your preference.

FY22 ACHIEVEMENTS [SLIDE 7]

The 2022 financial year certainly proved to be an incredibly challenging one and

we’re very pleased with the way management has navigated Argosy through

those challenges.

The 2022 results again reflected a business that continues to demonstrate

resilience.


.7

We delivered strongly on our sustainability and development strategy and the

recent handover of the now completed 8 Willis Street is a great example of this.

We’re targeting a 6 Green Star Built rating here which will certify that the building

has been built to World Leading standards. As a corporate entity, we also

achieved Toitu net carbon zero certification and initiated our emissions reduction

plan.

We also continued to build and maintain strong relationships with tenants, which

was verified through our tenant survey results, and completed new leases with

Government tenants.

Peter will speak to the property and financial achievements in more detail in his

presentation shortly.

We are progressing planning and delivery around our bigger long term strategic

growth drivers with our two large Auckland industrial estate opportunities and our

rejuvenation of older office properties into modern, attractive green buildings to

support our carbon reduction plan of 30% over the next 10 years.

While there are still a few headwinds as we start the 2023 financial year, such as

inflation, interest rates and supply chain disruption which are impacting markets

generally, Argosy’s sound financial and portfolio position provides sees the business

well placed to manage any near term economic volatility.


.8

VISION – BUILDING A BETTER FUTURE [SLIDE 8]

Our vision of building a better future will continue to be underpinned by the three

core pillars of being a green, resilient business owning a quality portfolio diversified

by sector, tenant and location.


Our long term strategy remains focused on;

• reducing our impact on the environment, focusing on our carbon reduction

aspirations, developing more greening buildings and providing better spaces for

tenants and their people;

• engaging more deeply with and making a bigger difference in our communities

we impact on; and

• maintaining the highest levels of corporate behaviour and accountability.

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

rejuvenating and redeveloping existing buildings into green buildings and driving

growth into the attractive Auckland Industrial sector, especially over the medium

term.

In summary, our strategy of creating a green, resilient and diversified business is

about ensuring we can produce measurable and sustainable dividend growth to

shareholders.


.9

STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT [SLIDE 9]

For the year ending 31 March, Argosy implemented sustainability reporting in

accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative, or GRI reporting principles. To

identify the material topics of importance to a wide range of stakeholders, we

engaged EY who undertook interviews with them. We believe this was a very

valuable and important exercise.

As you can see here there are a range of environmental, social and governance

areas which were raised as being material topics for stakeholders. We have taken

the stakeholder feedback on board and we will now report our progress on these

various issues moving forward.

FULL-YEAR DIVIDEND AND FIRST QUARTER ANNOUNCEMENT [SLIDE 10]

The Board was pleased to announce a 2022 full-year cash dividend of 6.55 cents

per share, an increase of 1.6% on the prior year.

Looking ahead, we do start FY23 with a portfolio in good shape and the business in

a very sound capital position with solid foundations for this year and beyond.

We do recognise that with rising interest rates, inflation concerns and unfortunate

events in Europe - there is a lot of global market volatility around that’s having an

impact on share prices.


.10

We remain very focused on delivering measured dividend growth to shareholders.

Accordingly, based on current projections for the portfolio and subject to market

conditions, the Board is pleased to reaffirm our expectations of a full year dividend

of 6.65 cents per share for the 2023 financial year.

I’ll now hand over to Peter who will take you through a review of the business.

CEO’S ADDRESS

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS REVIEW [SLIDE 11]

Thankyou Mr Chairman. As noted earlier, I’ll be taking you through a few more

highlights of the FY22 results in a little more detail before rounding out with an

update of the NZ market as we see things.

KEY FY22 RESULT HIGHLIGHTS [SLIDE 12]

The key highlights are shown here. Net property income was very pleasing in a

challenging year. A good revaluation increase in the second half of the year. Net

profit after tax again was really solid and our NTA was up solidly driven by annual

revaluation gains to $1.74. And finally, we maintained our FY22 dividend of

6.55cps.

PORTFOLIO HIGHLIGHTS [SLIDE 13]

Portfolio remains almost 100% full. Our WALT of 5.7yrs but excludes the Maui Street

acquisition in Hamilton which would add around 0.2 years to that – so the portfolio

WALT is looking good. Annualised rental growth was solid again and we see

additional growth in the Industrial sector and the Albany Mega Centre.



.2

SECTOR SUMMARY [SLIDE 14]

There are some changes across the sectors. Industrial land prices are rising given

scarcity of land. Strong industrial fundamentals means this sector is forecast to be

the best performer over the next five years and there is a potential return of

domestic manufacturing sector. In the office space we have activity at Willis Street

– handed over to Stats NZ. We are targeting a 6 Green Star rating for this high

quality Core asset. The Wellington office market continues to exhibit strong

fundamentals and our ongoing exposure to Government rental streams continues

to provide resilience. 360 Lambton Quay t is now 100% leased, with the recent

signing a Crown tenant. 105 Carlton Gore Road underway and tenant inquiry is

strong. The retail sector in our portfolio has gone reasonably well with solid

occupancy.

PORTFOLIO AT A GLANCE [SLIDE 15]

The driver here is the strategic change to the weightings where the Industrial

weighting will increase over the medium term. This will occur as we execute on

strategy and our development programme. This increase comes at the expense of

office and retail bands which are adjusted down slightly to reflect the upweight to

Industrial. By region and asset mix we’re largely within our target bands.

VALUE ADD OPPORTUNITIES [SLIDE 16]

The Bell Ave re-development opportunity is underway. 5 Allens Road in planning

phase and Unity Drive developments largely complete. Mt Richmond and Neilson

Street planning and design phase are progressing well and we’re getting a lot of

interest. These are both to be redeveloped into green industrial estates.


.3

101 Carlton Gore Road will follow on from 105 Carlton Gore Road which is

underway and we’re fielding good tenant enquiry there. Supply chain issues and

forward ordering remains something we need to keep a close eye on and is the

new normal for the time being.

CASE STUDY SLIDES [SLIDE 17]

A value add case study slide here with the Mt Richmond project and as I said

before we have a lot of interest in the site. But really, its a type of project which

really embodies our vision of building a better future for our tenants, their staff, the

environment and of course our stakeholders.

REVALUATIONS [SLIDE 18]

Revaluations were encouraging over the full year, the overall star being Auckland

Industrial. Wellington office also featured with solid demand for seismically sound

property and the projections on the Willis Street development will be under rented

on completion.

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

result with an unrealised revaluation increase of $142.1 million or 87% of the total

portfolio uplift. By sector, and at 51% of Argosy’s portfolio by value Industrial was

the key driver of the overall gain at $144.7 million, up 14.7% on book value.

DISTRIBUTABLE INCOME [SLIDE 19]

After adjustments, gross distributable income was $67.7 million compared to $71.6

million last year and Net distributable Income was $64.7 million compared to $67.7

million last year. Net distributable income per share was 7.68 cents per share


.4

compared with 8.14 cents per share last year. I would remind shareholders that last

year included the forfeited deposit of $4.5 million from the sale of the Albany

Lifestyle Centre.

AFFO [SLIDE 20]

Adjusted Funds from Operation or AFFO was $48.3 million for the year. Capitalised

leasing costs were lower than last year which included leasing costs for 7WQ and

107 Carlton Gore Road. Maintenance capex was higher due to 7WQ façade

which is now largely complete, and reduced AFFO by $10 million net of tax. Our

audited AFFO payout ratio for the year was 114% but if you adjust for the 7WQ

façade maintenance works net of tax, AFFO was 94%.

DEBT PROFILE INCLUDING BONDS [SLIDE 21]

This slide shows our debt profile including bonds. We refinanced our $455 million

facility during the period, pushing out our tenor and improving our margins. We will

be looking to extend the $80 million tranche which needs to be refinanced by the

end of September. You can also see the benefits our green bonds provide the

business in terms of diversification and tenor. This slide shows our debt to total

assets over the last 5 years – which you can see has been broadly stable and

reflects the timing of asset sales, acquisitions and developments. The weighted

average duration of debt is 3.5 years.

LEASING [SLIDE 22]

Leasing during the year was very positive.


.5

LEASE EXPIRY [SLIDE 23]

Lease expiries for the coming year is about 10% which is pretty normal. The biggest

expiry of these is Parliamentary Services at 147 Lambton Quay. We’re working on

with them on some options.

OUTLOOK / CHALLENGES AHEAD [SLIDE 24]

So, 2023 has its own challenges.

Local and global economies are experiencing rising interest rates and inflation

headwinds. There is construction cost tension together with ongoing global supply

chain pressure. Geopolitically challenges are adding to global economic and

market volatility. Key focus areas for FY23 are simple: delivering strong operational

results, addressing key expiries, leasing up remaining vacancies, completion of key

green developments and commencing new ones as planned. Master planning

across key green Value Add developments at Mt Richmond and Neilson Street

continues and there is healthy market interest. Attractive property fundamentals in

key markets (Auckland industrial and Wellington office) continue to present

attractive dynamics of low supply, high demand and steady rental growth.

Structural changes in the way property is used will provide opportunities and

challenges. We are keeping a watching brief.

Now, I will hand you back to the Chairman.
