Asset Plus FY22 Annual Report & Eastgate Settlement Update


Asset Plus (NZX:APL) is pleased to release its 2022 Annual Report. This follows the announcement on

19 May 2022 of the FY22 financial result.


Asset Plus also advises that it expects settlement of the sale of Eastgate to now occur in late July or

early August due to delays with approval of the subdivision plan and obtaining third party consents. All

outstanding matters have been resolved and the subdivision is currently being processed by LINZ with

LINZ accepting Asset Plus’ request to process the e-dealing with urgency. Settlement is to occur 15

working days after the new titles have been issued.


While Asset Plus does have the ability to terminate the agreement and retain the deposit if the new titles

do not issue by 1 July, Asset Plus does not currently intend to exercise that right given the issue of new

titles is imminent and the purchaser has no right to withdraw from the contract. That termination right

does not expire and Asset Plus reserves all rights in respect of it. Asset Plus will provide a further update

when the new titles have issued, and the settlement date is confirmed.

Chairman’s Letter

Against the backdrop of a changing macroeconomic

environment, Asset Plus has moved to capitalise on

opportunities to deliver the best outcome for shareholders.

The ongoing effects of the Covid-19 pandemic have

created a level of material future uncertainty in property

and investment markets, with widespread immediate

impacts as a result of government mandated lockdowns.

The consequences for the property sector have been

significant, with workers forced to work from home for

a prolonged period, retailers closing and companies

typically not making major property decisions given wider

economic uncertainty. The construction sector has also

been profoundly impacted by supply chain interruptions

and associated cost escalations. We noted last year that

the scale of potential development opportunities before

us required a prudent capital management strategy given

the size of the balance sheet.

With this changing macroeconomic environment, we

have elected to take up opportunities to restructure

the portfolio with a view to substantially de-risking

the company.

The first such decision came in the opportunity to sell

Eastgate Shopping Centre in Christchurch in early

2021. We elected to defer the scheduled settlement

date during this financial year to facilitate a subdivision

application by the purchaser. That decision bolstered

earnings for the company, and also allowed a full year

depreciation claim to be made to 31 March 2022. The

property is expected to settle in mid 2022 subject to the

new titles being issued by LINZ.

Subsequently, and post the end of the financial year, the

opportunistic sale of our property at 35 Graham Street in

Auckland, after receiving an unsolicited offer, mitigates

those balance sheet constraints and sets the company on

a pathway back to a very conservative gearing position

of circa 10% against a sector average of approximately

30%, once settled. The sale removes all leasing and

development risk for the property, in what is a currently

very challenging environment.

With a sale price of $65 million, the transaction will realise

capital above the 31 March 2022 independent valuation

undertaken by JLL of $56 million. Shareholders approved

this sale at a Special Meeting held on 3 June 2022.

The company’s focus in the near term is now on the

completion and settlement of the Eastgate transaction

and the successful completion of the Munroe Lane

development. Munroe Lane will add to the portfolio a

brand new sustainable building with a 5 star Green-Star

design rating, with a blue chip tenant covenant across

two thirds of the property. Construction activity continues

to progress well, albeit delayed as a result of Covid-19.

Leasing interest is increasing as the property continues

to take shape with the main structure expected to be

topped out shortly. Demand for high quality, long dated

income producing assets continue to appeal, with the as-

complete fully leased valuation increasing from $146.85m

to $147.50m as at 31 March 2022.

Covid-19 continued to impact on the investment portfolio,

with further rental abatement and relief provided to our

tenants to ensure their longevity at both Stoddard Road,

and Eastgate. Pleasingly we’ve renewed the majority of

leases, and secured new tenants at Eastgate maintaining

operating cash flows ahead of settlement in mid-2022.

Beyond that, the Stoddard Road centre continues to

operate well, and enjoys 100% occupancy with contract

income increasing by $0.08m over the financial year.

We’ve been working closely with the company’s funder,

BNZ, throughout the year to navigate the changing

environment, with BNZ being very supportive of the

strategy. The company has agreed an amendment to

our banking facilities, which provides that the Interest

Cover Ratio (ICR) will not be tested for the period from

1 April 2022 until 31 March 2023 inclusive. This is

primarily driven by the upcoming divestment of Eastgate

and the resultant reduction in income and while the

Munroe Lane property is still under development.

We continue to implement various ESG initiatives

across the portfolio that remain appropriate for a

company of our scale.

Dividends equating to 97% of AFFO were paid

throughout the year, which was a change in strategy

from that articulated in the September 2020 capital raise,

whereby we undertook to fund any shortfall in dividends

from capital. As shareholders know, during the year we

paused dividend payments as the changing environment

and capital constraints on the company meant that this

was a prudent approach to adopt at this point in time.

The dividend remains subject to quarterly review, and is

currently suspended until sufficient operating earnings are

generated to support an ongoing sustainable dividend.

Finally, on behalf of the Board, we acknowledge that this

is a challenging time for many investors and we thank our

shareholders for their ongoing support.

Regards,

Bruce Cotterill

AFFO is a non-GAAP financial information, calculated based on guidance issued by the Property Council of Australia. Asset Plus considers that

AFFO is a useful measure for shareholders and management because it assists in assessing the Company’s underlying operating performance.

This non-GAAP financial information does not have a standardised meaning prescribed by GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to similar

financial information prescribed by other entities. The calculation of AFFO has been reviewed by Asset Plus' auditor, Grant Thornton Audit Limited.

Portfolio Performance
The portfolio performed largely in line with prior years on

a normalised basis, however the result for the period was

impacted by relatively flat valuations and loss of rental

income on the 35 Graham Street property following the

expiry of the Auckland Council lease.

The Eastgate settlement was deferred from this

financial year to next, bolstering operating income for

the period. Stoddard Road continues to retain 100%

occupancy, with renewals representing 14.7% of the

centre’s income renewed during the period. The Kamo

property has now been unconditionally sold, for $2.7m

with settlement to occur on 30 November 2022. The

sale proceeds will be utilised to repay debt and bolster

working capital for the company to facilitate the

completion of the Munroe Lane development.

Covid-19 Impacts

The Covid-19 pandemic created a level of material future

uncertainty in the real estate market. The immediate

impacts were widespread as a result of the government

mandated lockdowns nationally and at local levels.

Those lockdowns, and evolving variants of Covid-19

meant that the impacts have endured for longer than

was initially anticipated.

Rental abatements and relief were provided again

throughout the financial year to support tenants with

$0.286m granted, equating to approximately 2.8% of

the rental income for the financial year. Total abatements

and relief as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic now total

$0.686m ($0.4m in FY21).

The Government also enacted legislation in November

2021 forcing framework on both Landlords and Tenants

to resolve any disputes around an appropriate level of

relief and/or abatement.

The impacts of Covid-19 on the office sector have been

more profound than the industrial, commercial and retail

sectors with office workers largely forced to work from

home for a prolonged period of time and businesses

typically not making property decisions or commitments

given wider uncertainty, and the enduring nature of the

pandemic. This has been showcased through the subdued

leasing commitments to date in both the balance of

Munroe Lane, and the 35 Graham Street property.

The construction sector has also been heavily impacted

by Covid-19, in terms of logistics, supply chain,

and procurement issues, the availability of labour,

and interruptions from government restrictions and

lockdowns and the flow on impact of working at reduced

capacity. Extension of Time claims of 73 working days

relating to Covid-19 impacts on the Munroe Lane site

have been approved in the period with further Covid-19

related delays ongoing. Management have mitigated

these impacts on the Munroe Lane development, where

possible, by procuring materials in advance, and storing

them on site.

Post-balance date, the company also announced the

sale of 35 Graham Street, approved by shareholders at a

Special Meeting held on 3 June 2022 for $65.0 million, with

a deferred settlement in December 2023 – or December

2024 if additional consideration of $3.0 million is paid.

A reduced dividend was paid for the third quarter,

representing a payout ratio of 97% of Adjusted Funds

From Operations (AFFO), with the fourth quarter dividend

suspended until sufficient operating earnings are

generated to support an ongoing sustainable dividend.

The company’s construction delivery partner, Icon,

continue to progress construction of this development

despite the ongoing impacts of Covid-19 on both

resource and labour availability. Construction timeframes

have been adversely impacted by 73 working days,

through both the regional Auckland government

mandated lockdowns, positive Covid-19 cases, or close

contacts for people working both on site, and off-site

through the various supply chains. A number of mitigation

strategies have been implemented to combat the effects

of these issues on the delivery of Munroe Lane.

Munroe Lane

– Development progressing

Munroe Lane,

Albany, Auckland

*The valuation as-if complete is on a fully leased basis

Those Covid-19 impacts and associated mitigation

strategies have incurred approximately $1.5m of additional

costs to date that will be funded from the projects

contingency. Management now anticipate completion

of the development in the quarter ending June 2023, as

compared to the originally scheduled completion date of

December 2022.

The majority of costs were fixed with Icon when the contract

was entered into, therefore current escalation in construction

costs to date have largely been avoided, except where

changes have been made or variations instructed. The

company retains some working capital facilities that will be

available should Covid-19 impacts continue to endure and

adversely impact the project.

The 5 Star Green-Star Design rating has now been obtained

for the development with a number of sustainability

initiatives implemented to date, including recycling all steel

waste from site, diverting 81.7% of construction waste from

landfill, and recycling 80% of the projects sheet piles.

The company continues to retain a very close working

relationship with the anchor tenant, Auckland Council,

who have a 15-year lease from completion over 63% of

the building (by income). Leasing activity for the balance

of the space has been subdued as a result of the impacts

of Covid-19 on the office market, and subsequent large

increase in sub-lease space becoming available on the

North Shore. Leasing interest however has increased

through 2022 as the building has substantially now come

out of the ground, companies have been returning back to

their offices, and available sub-lease space is being taken

up. A number of leasing proposals have been made to

prospective tenants, with all real estate agencies actively

engaged on leasing the available space. Management

remain confident in the appeal of the property and its

decentralised location to prospective tenants.

Council wishes to acknowledge the
efforts undertaken by Asset Plus to work

closely with us to develop a great office

building that supports council staff

to deliver great service outcomes for

Auckland residents. We also appreciate

Asset Plus' commitment to meeting

New Zealand Green Star 5 rating which

supports our overall objectives to reduce

our carbon footprint and their willingness

to embrace our “He Kaupapa” guidelines

by incorporating Māori design outcomes

embedded in the development of the

building, supporting who we are and

how we serve our communities.

Shareholders approved the divestment

of 35 Graham Street on the 3rd of June

for $65.0m to Mansons TCLM, with

settlement scheduled for 1 December

settlement to 1 December 2024, and in

exchange the purchase price will increase

to $68.0m and the deposit payable will

increase from $6.5m to $13.6m.

WALT (years)0.50.0

The property was purchased pre the Covid-19 pandemic in

2019, with the strategy to redevelop the property under a

full redevelopment scenario adding 2-3 floors, or a partial

redevelopment or refurbishment of the property. Resource

consents were obtained, and marketing undertaken to secure

leasing commitments. However, in the intervening period

market conditions have drastically changed with the onset

of the Covid-19 pandemic, and its subsequent impacts,

particularly on the office leasing market.

Those changes in market conditions have adversely

impacted the company’s intended strategy of unlocking

value from the asset with an acceptable risk profile, and

after receiving an unsolicited offer to purchase the property

by Mansons it was deemed to be in the best interests of

shareholders by the Board and management to accept

the offer. Shareholders then approved the sale at a special

shareholders meeting on the 3rd of June, with the $6.5m

deposit payable being received and utilised to retire debt.

As a result of the sale the company will no longer have any

leasing or development risk on the property, borrowings

will reduce to approximately $19m or a 10% LVR, and the

sale realises the asset at a premium to the independent 31

March JLL valuation of $56.0m. Once settled the operating

expenses currently being covered by the company (given the

property is vacant ) will cease, management fees will reduce,

and significant interest cost savings will be derived after

proceeds are utilised to repay debt.

Management are actively working on short term leasing

and income opportunities ahead of settlement, to offset

outgoings on the property. However, it is not expected that

any material leases will be entered into given the short

tenure available ahead of settlement and the internal quality

and presentation of the property.

This retail asset has continued to perform well over

the past year with full tenant retention maintained.

As a result of government mandated lockdowns and

restrictions the landlord provided rental abatement, and

support where necessary to the tenants within the centre,

through varying degrees of rent relief and abatement.

The centre continues to perform well and sentiment is

improving as New Zealand continues to manage the

evolving Covid-19 landscape. Feedback from tenants is

optimistic as turnover trade continues to return to normal

market levels.

During the financial year lease renewals were completed

making up 14.7% percent of the Centre's income stream.

As a result of rent reviews and renewals completed

during the year, the net contract income has increased by

$0.08m per annum.

Management’s future leasing focus has now turned to the

one lease renewal due in the next financial year, making

up 3.7 percent of the total rental income for the Centre,

and working with The Warehouse whose lease comes up

for renewal in 2025.

Some capital was invested throughout the year to help

enhance the overall appearance of the Centre and

proactive maintenance has been a focus to ensure

longevity of the assets.

The Centre has been unconditionally sold with settlement

set to occur 15 working days after new titles are granted

for the property following a subdivision the purchaser is

completing. If titles are not issued by 1 July 2022, Asset Plus

has an option to terminate the sale and purchase agreement.

This right is not available to the purchaser. Management

expect the new titles to be issued during July, or early August

dependant on LINZ processing times with settlement to

follow 15 working days thereafter. $40m of the sale proceeds

will be applied as a debt repayment, with the balance of

funds retained as working capital for the Company.

Covid-19 has continued to impact the Centre and a

moderate amount of rent relief and abatement was granted

to a number of tenants during the 3-week government

mandated Level 3 & 4 lockdown in August/September 2021.

Despite the impacts of Covid-19 on the retail industry two

new tenants were secured with Caroline Eve occupying

3 historically vacant tenancies and Techpro backfilling a

space previously occupied by EB Games. A licence was also

granted to the medical centre located on the mezzanine to

use a vacant tenancy as a vaccine clinic. A further 11 leases

were renewed or extended over the past year. There have

also been several lease assignments as businesses were

sold to new owners.

Construction of Taco Bell’s first South Island store was

completed in June 2021 with the 10-year lease commencing

on 11 June 2021. The store has been a positive addition to

the Centre with Restaurant Brands noting it was one of the

best performing opening weeks of any store globally.

reduced by ~50%, then became 100% vacant from late

December 2021.

Eastgate and Stoddard Road were both impacted by further

Investment Property

Investment Property, including properties held for sale,

total $216.4m as at 31 March 2022 ($172.8m in the

prior year). The increase is primarily due to development

progress at Munroe Lane totalling $42.5m, which is

approximately 54% complete as at 31 March 2022.

No development margin has been reflected at this

stage of the development. Properties held for sale

include Eastgate ($43.5m) and Kamo ($2.9m).

Capital Management

$55.7 million of debt is currently drawn which

represents a LVR of 25.7% as at 31 March 2022

(5.4% in the prior year). The loan facility limit as at

31 March 2022 is $130 million, the remaining undrawn

debt totalling $74.3 million will primarily be used to

Fund the development at Munroe Lane. This limit

reduces to $83.5 million post the upcoming debt

repayments on settlement of Eastgate ($40 million)

and receipt of the 35 Graham Street deposit ($6.5

million). Other Liabilities include $5 million of capex

accruals in relation to the Munroe Lane development

which will be funded through debt utilisation. The NTA

is now 44.0 cents per share down from 44.8 cents per

share in the prior year.

Dividends

Total cash dividends paid for the year are 1.125

cents per share which represents a pay out ratio of

97% (based on AFFO). The dividend remains subject

to quarterly review but is currently suspended until

sufficient operating earnings are generated to support

an ongoing sustainable dividend.

Corporate Governance
Corporate

Governance

Principle 1 – Code of Ethical Behaviour

Directors should set high

standards of ethical behaviour,

model this behaviour and hold

management accountable

for these standards being

followed throughout

the organisation.

A Code of Ethics has been adopted by which the

Company has set out expectations for all Directors,

officers, any employees and representatives to act in a

manner consistent with its guiding principles and the

values set out in its Code of Ethics. This Code sets

out clear expectations of ethical decision-making

and personal behaviour in regard to confidentiality,

securities trading, transparency, company information,

conflict resolution processes, gifts and stakeholder

interaction. A copy of the Code of Ethics is included in

the Corporate Governance Manual available at

www.assetplusnz.co.nz/corporate-governance.

Any illegal or unethical behaviour is to be reported

to the Board. The Chairman will determine the

seriousness of the behaviour and what action needs

to be taken. The Chairperson may decide that a sub-

committee of the Board will be formed to determine

what action should be taken.

Asset Plus’ manager, Centuria, has also adopted a Code

of Conduct which applies to its employees and directors.

The Code sets out the minimum standards expected

of Centuria’s employees and directors and is intended

to facilitate decisions that are consistent with Centuria

values, business goals and legal and policy obligations.

A copy of the Centuria Code of Ethics is available at

https://centuria.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/

Centuria-Code-of-Conduct.pdf.

Asset Plus has also adopted a Share Trading Policy

which sets out the rules for dealing in the listed financial

products of Asset Plus. The policy prohibits trading by

directors of Asset Plus without the written consent of the

Chairperson. There are also ‘no trade’ periods around the

release of the Annual and Interim reports. A copy of the

policy is available at

www.assetplusnz.co.nz/corporate-governance.

Centuria has also adopted an Insider Trading Policy

which sets out the rules for dealing in the financial

products of any entity that Centuria NZ manages

(including Asset Plus). The policy prohibits trading

by any employee or director of Centuria without the

written consent of the Centuria NZ Chair. Other than

in exceptional circumstances, all trading is prohibited

during blackout periods for 30 days prior to half- and

full-year balance dates until the first trading day after

the relevant results are announced.

The Board of Asset Plus is committed to maintaining the highest standards of business behaviour

and accountability.

Accordingly, the Board has adopted corporate governance policies and practices designed to

promote responsible conduct.

The corporate governance framework is set out in Asset Plus’ Corporate Governance Manual,

a copy of which can be found at the Company’s website:

www.assetplusnz.co.nz/corporate-governance.

This section sets out Asset Plus’ corporate governance policies, practices and processes

with reference to the NZX Corporate Governance Code’s eight key principles and supporting

recommendations. The Board considers that it has followed the recommendations of the NZX

Corporate Governance Code except as set out below under each Principle.

This Corporate Governance Statement is current as at 31 March 2022.

22

Corporate Governance (continued)
Principle 2 – Board Composition

and Performance

To ensure an effective board,

there should be a balance

of independence, skills,

knowledge, experience

and perspectives.

Board Charter

The Asset Plus Board has adopted a Board Charter and

Governing Principles which sets out that the specific

responsibilities of the Board and its Committees include:

• oversight of the Company including its control and

accountability procedures and systems;

• setting the strategic direction and objectives of

the Company;

• overseeing the audit and monitoring risk;

• approval of operating plans including annual

business plans and budgets;

• monitoring actual results against the annual

business plan, budget and strategic objectives;

• delegating the appropriate authority of the

management of the Company, and monitoring

management’s performance on a regular basis;

• setting the remuneration of the Directors;

• approval and monitoring capital expenditure,

capital management initiatives and acquisitions

and divestments;

• approval of capital structure and dividend

policies; and

• oversight of disclosure and monitoring of price

sensitive matters affecting the Company.

Director nominations and appointments

The Board has adopted a Nomination Committee

Charter which sets out the procedure for nominating

and appointing potential directors to the Board. Given its

size, the full Board of Asset Plus acts as the Nominations

Committee. The responsibilities set out in the Nomination

Committee Charter are:

• to identify and nominate candidates to fill Board

vacancies as and when they arise;

• before making an appointment, to evaluate the

balance of skills, knowledge and experience on the

Board and, in light of the evaluation, to determine the

role and capabilities required for the appointment;

• to formulate succession plans for Directors taking

into account the challenges and opportunities

facing the Company and the skills and expertise

accordingly required to govern the Company in

the future;

• to regularly review the structure, size and

composition (including the skills, knowledge

and experience) of the Board and to make any

changes; and

• to consider such other matters relating to Board

nomination or succession issues as may be identified

by the Board.

Formal agreements are entered into with all new directors.

23

Board composition
Director profiles are on page 20 and director

shareholdings are listed on page 29.

Directors undertake continuing education to keep

their skills current and understand how to best

perform their duties.

The Board Charter sets out that the Board will review its

performance as a whole on an annual basis and instigate

additional comprehensive reviews as may be deemed

necessary from time to time. External consultants may be

commissioned as needed to assist in the assessment of

individual director performance, the effectiveness of the

Board’s processes and/or the Board’s own effectiveness.

The factors relevant to determining that Bruce Cotterill,

Allen Bollard and Carol Campbell were independent

directors were that they are non-executive directors,

they have either no shareholder or, in the case of Carol

Campbell, a holding of less than 1% and that they have

no other business relationship with Asset Plus.

The factors relevant to determining that Paul Duffy is

not an independent director is that, until recently, he is a

director of both the Manager and the largest shareholder.

The factors relevant to determining that John McBain is

not an independent director is that, he is a director and

beneficial owner of both the Manager and the largest

shareholder.

Diversity

Asset Plus has not adopted a diversity policy as it no

longer has any employees following externalisation

of management to Centuria and accordingly has not

complied with this recommendation for the entire

period in which the NZX Corporate Governance Code

has been in place. This practice has been approved by

the Asset Plus Board.

Chair and CEO

In accordance with the NZX Corporate Governance Code

and as a result of management being externalised, Asset

Plus’ Chair is not also its CEO.

Principle 3 – Board Committees

The board should use

committees where this will

enhance its effectiveness in

key areas, while still retaining

board responsibility.

The Asset Plus Board has established a separate Audit

and Risk Committee comprising of three directors. The

Corporate Governance Manual also includes charters for

Nominations Committee and Remuneration Committee.

However, the full Board undertakes the responsibilities

of those Committees. Given the size and operations of

Asset Plus, the Board does not consider that any further

committees are necessary.

Audit and Risk Committee

The Audit and Risk Committee’s primary

objectives are:

• to set the principles and standards with respect to

internal controls, accounting policies and the nature,

scope, objectives and functions of the external audit.

This objective enables the Board to satisfy itself

that management is discharging its responsibilities

in accordance with established processes and,

wherever practical, best practice methodologies; and

• to ensure the efficient and effective oversight and

management of all business risks.

Corporate Governance (continued)

24

Key responsibilities for the Audit and Risk
Committee include:

• Establishing guidelines for the selection,

appointment and/ or removal of the external auditor

as well as the rotation of the lead partner of the

audit firm;

• Revising and recommending to the Board the

appointment and removal of the external auditor if

the Committee considers necessary;

• Ensuring the external auditor is discharging

its responsibilities, including monitoring the

effectiveness, objectivity and independence

of the external auditor;

• Reviewing draft financial statements, NZX

preliminary announcements and annual and interim

reports;

• Reviewing accounting policies and practices;

• Reviewing the risk management policy and the

Manager's risk management reporting; and

• Reviewing the Delegated Authority

Policy annually.

The members are all independent directors being Carol

Campbell (Chair), Allen Bollard and Bruce Cotterill. The

Audit and Risk Committee is required to meet at least

twice a year, with 4 meetings being held in the 2022

financial year.

Representatives of the Manager only attend meetings

of the Audit and Risk Committee at the invitation of the

committee.

Remuneration Committee

The full Board acts as the Remuneration Committee.

The Remuneration Committee Charter is included in

the Corporate Governance Manual. The responsibilities

include setting and reviewing all components of the

remuneration of non-executive Directors.

Nominations Committee

The full Board acts as the Nominations Committee.

The Nominations Committee Charter is included in the

Corporate Governance Manual. The responsibilities are

as set out on page 23.

Takeover protocols

In June 2018, the Board adopted protocols setting

out the procedures to be followed if a takeover offer

is received.

Principle 4 – Reporting and Disclosure

The board should demand

integrity in financial and non

financial reporting, and in

the timeliness and balance

of corporate disclosures.

Continuous disclosure

Asset Plus has adopted a disclosure policy setting

out its approach to disclosing material information

and communication with shareholders or analysts.

Asset Plus recognises that the cornerstone of New

Zealand and international securities law is full and fair

disclosure of material information and that the timely,

non-exclusionary distribution of information to the

public is crucial to the efficiency and integrity of the

capital markets.

A copy of the policy is available on Asset Plus’ website

at www.assetplusnz.co.nz/corporate-governance, along

with the Corporate Governance Manual.

Corporate Governance (continued)

25

Principle 5 – Remuneration
The remuneration of directors and executives should be

transparent, fair and reasonable.

Remuneration of directors is reviewed by the Board.

The director remuneration pool was approved at $300,000 when Asset Plus was formed following the corporatisation of

the National Property Trust in 2011. In June 2017, the Asset Plus Board approved the following director fees which have

continued to be paid during the past year:

Director remuneration

DirectorBase director feesCommittee feesAnnual fee

Amount paid

during the year

Bruce Cotterill $90,000 – chair-$90,000$90,000

Carol Campbell$65,000$10,000 – Chair of Audit and Risk Committee$75,000$75,000

Allen Bollard$65,000$5,000 – Member of Audit and Risk Committee $70,000$70,000

Paul Duffy$65,000-$65,000$65,000

John McBain----

Total $300,000$300,000

Approved pool$300,000

As Asset Plus no longer has any employees, it does not have a remuneration policy. Accordingly, Asset Plus has not

complied with this recommendation for the entire period in which the NZX Corporate Governance Code has been in place.

This practice has been approved by the Asset Plus Board.

Chief Executive remuneration

Following the externalisation of management to Centuria, Asset Plus no longer has a CEO.

Corporate Governance (continued)

26

Principle 6 – Risk Management
Directors should have a

sound understanding of the

material risks faced by the

issuer and how to manage

them. The Board should

regularly verify that the issuer

has appropriate processes

that identify and manage

potential and material risks.

Asset Plus relies on Centuria’s risk management

framework to identify, oversee, manage and control risks

that Asset Plus faces. Key risks have been identified

including interest rate and treasury risk, leasing risk, cyber

security, construction and development risk, compliance

with regulatory obligations, property risks (such as tenant

default ), fraud and health and safety risks.

Centuria is responsible under the management

agreement for advising the Asset Plus Board on risk

management matters. The Audit and Risk Committee

receives such reports and oversee risk management.

Health and safety

Centuria oversees health and safety compliance on a

day to day basis for Asset Plus in conjunction with the

property managers for each property. Each property

has a hazard register which is managed on a day to

day basis by the property managers and overseen by

Centuria’s asset managers.

Centuria's management team oversees compliance with

Centuria’s health and safety framework including regular

reporting to the Board. This includes regular reporting to

the Board on key health and safety statistics, incidents

and hazard remedies.

The Asset Plus Board also considers health and safety

issues at each board meeting and as they arise if

necessary. A key focus for the Asset Plus Board is

ensuring that hazards are identified and remedied

and that reporting identifies the progress with

remedial actions.

A health and safety assessment is conducted on

all new properties to identify all relevant hazards prior

to acquisition.

Principle 7 – Auditors

The board should ensure the

quality and independence of

the external audit process.

The Audit and Risk Committee Charter sets out Asset

Plus’ framework for managing relationships with

its auditor. This includes the ability for directors to

communicate directly with auditors and for auditors

to attend meetings of the Audit and Risk Committee

without management present. Any non-audit services

provided by the audit firm must be approved by the Audit

and Risk Committee.

Grant Thornton is the auditor of Asset Plus with the audit

partner rotated every 5 years. Grant Thornton attends

each annual shareholder meeting and is available to

answer shareholder questions at the meeting.

Asset Plus has no separate internal audit function as it

has no employees. It relies on the Manager's compliance

assurance and risk management processes for ensuring

continued improvement.

Corporate Governance (continued)

27

Principle 8 – Shareholder Rights
and Relations

The board should respect

the rights of shareholders

and foster constructive

relationships with

shareholders that

encourage them to

engage with the issuer.

Asset Plus’ website at www.assetplusnz.co.nz includes a

range of information including bios for directors, copies of

the Corporate Governance Manual, the constitution and

historical annual and interim reports.

The Company engages with shareholders through

annual and interim reports, results conference

calls, presentations to shareholders and the annual

shareholder meeting.

Shareholders have the right to receive communications

electronically by notifying the share registrar. Major

decisions which require approval under the NZX Main

Board Listing Rules are submitted to shareholders for

approval. All voting at shareholder meetings (such as

the 2020 meeting for the Munroe Lane development ) is

conducted by a poll.

The annual shareholders notice of meeting in 2021 was

provided to shareholders at least 20 working days prior

to the annual meeting.

1. Corporate Information

The consolidated financial statements comprise of Asset

Plus Limited (the “Company”) and its subsidiary (collectively

the “Group”).

The Company is a limited liability company incorporated

and domiciled in New Zealand whose shares are listed on

the New Zealand Stock Exchange. The Company is a FMC

reporting entity under the Financial Markets Conduct Act

2013. The registered office is located in Level 2, Bayley's

House, 30 Gaunt Street, Wynyard Quarter, Auckland.

The nature of the operations and principal activities of the

Group are investing in commercial property in New Zealand.

2. Summary of Significant

Accounting Policies

(a) Basis of Preparation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared

in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Practice

in New Zealand (“NZ GAAP”), the Companies Act 1993, the

requirements set out in section 7 of the Financial Markets

Conduct Act 2013 and the Main Board Listing Rules of the

NZX. The consolidated financial statements have been

prepared on a historical cost basis, except for investment

properties which have been measured at fair value.

The consolidated financial statements are presented in New

Zealand dollars and all values are rounded to the nearest

thousand dollars ($’000), except where otherwise indicated.

(b) Statement of Compliance

The consolidated financial statements comply with New

Zealand equivalents to International Financial Reporting

Standards ('NZ IFRS') and International Financial Reporting

Standards (IFRS), as appropriate for a profit-oriented entity

that falls into the Tier 1 for profit category as determined by

the New Zealand Accounting Standards Board.

Changes in accounting policies

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with

those of the previous financial year, except where new

accounting standards which have been issued and are

effective for the current reporting period, or which are

issued but not yet effective and may be early adopted,

have been adopted for the first time. No accounting

standards have been early adopted.

The Group has adopted the accounting standards which are

issued and effective for reporting periods beginning on or

after 1 January 2021. These have not had a material impact

on the financial statements.

New standards, interpretations and amendments

adopted by the Group from 1 April 2021, but that have

not had a material impact on the financial statements:

• Amendments to NZ IFRS 9 Financial Instruments

• Amendments to NZ IAS 39 Financial Instruments:

Recognition and measurement

• Amendments to NZ IFRS 7 Financial Instruments:

Disclosures

• Amendments to NZ IFRS 4 Insurance Contracts

• Amendments to NZ IFRS 16 Leases

Accounting standards that are issued but not yet effective

Several other amendments and interpretations apply

for the first time from 1 April 2022, but are not expected

to have a material impact on the consolidated financial

statements of the Group.

(c) Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the

assets, liabilities and equity at the end of the annual

reporting period and revenue, expenses and cash flows

during the year ended 31 March 2022, and its comparative

period, of the entities controlled by the Company. A

controlled entity is any entity over which Asset Plus

Limited has the power to direct relevant activities,

exposure or rights, to variable returns from its involvement

with the investee, and the ability to use its power over

the investee to affect the amount of investor return. The

existence and effect of potential voting rights that are

currently exercisable or convertible are considered, if

those rights are substantive, when assessing whether a

Company controls another entity.

In preparing these consolidated financial statements,

subsidiaries are consolidated from the date the Group

gains control until the date on which control ceases.

The financial statements of the subsidiary are prepared

for the same reporting period as the parent company,

using consistent accounting policies. In preparing the

consolidated financial statements, all intercompany

balances, transactions, unrealised gains and losses

resulting from intra-group transactions and dividends

have been eliminated in full.

The table below represents the Company's investment in

its subsidiary at each reporting date:

Percentage Held

31 March 2022 31 March 2021

(d) Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Revenue and expenses are recognised net of the amount of

GST except where the GST incurred on a purchase of goods

and services is not recoverable from the taxation authority,

in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of

acquisition of the item as applicable.

Financial Statements

For the year ended 31 March 2022

Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
The notes set out on pages 37 to 55 form part of, and should be read in conjunction with, the consolidated financial statements.

All items in the consolidated statement of financial position

are stated net of GST, with the exception of receivables

and payables, which include GST invoiced. Cash flows are

included in the consolidated statement of cash flows on

a net basis and the GST component of cash flows arising

from investing and financing activities is classified as part of

operating activities.

3. Significant Accounting Estimates

and Judgements

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements

in conformity with NZ IFRS requires Directors to make

judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the

application of the Group's accounting policies and the

reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses.

All judgements, estimates and assumptions made are

believed to be reasonable based on the most current set of

circumstances available to the Group.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on

an ongoing basis. Although the Group has internal control

systems in place to ensure that estimates can be reliably

measured, actual results may differ from these estimates.

Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the

period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects

only that period, or in the period of the revision and future

periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

Fair value measurements

A number of the Group's accounting policies and disclosures

require measurement at fair value. Fair values are

categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy

based on the inputs used in the valuation technique adopted

as follows:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for

identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included in 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).

Key Judgements

The areas involving a high degree of judgement or areas

where assumptions are significant to the Group include the

following:

• Determination of Deferred Taxes (Note 7)

• Impairment of Receivables (Note 9)

• Determination of Fair Value of Investment Property

(Note 10)

• Classification of Investment Property Held for Sale

(Note 11)

Covid-19 global pandemic

The outbreak of the Coronavirus (Covid-19) was declared

by the World Health Organisation as a ‘Global Pandemic’

on 11 March 2020. In response to the pandemic,

regions of New Zealand entered into periods of different

alert levels with the implementation of varying travel

restrictions and a range of quarantine and "social

distancing" measures. Any rental abatement or relief

provided to tenants to assist them with any negative

impact of these measures is detailed in Note 5.

Effective from 18 August 2021, the Government enacted

an amendment to the Property Law Act in response

to the continued economic impacts of Covid-19. The

amendment implied a new clause into every lease (where

there was not already an equivalent clause) which applied

if there was an epidemic and tenants were unable to gain

access to their premises to fully conduct their operations

because of reasons of health or safety relating to the

epidemic. Where the new clause applies, only "a fair

proportion" of the rent is payable.

Going Concern

The financial statements have been prepared under the

going concern assumption, which assumes the Group

will be able to pay its debts as they fall due in the normal

course of business. As part of management's assessment

of the Group's ability to continue as a going concern, the

following uncertainties relating to events or conditions have

been taken into account:

At 31 March 2022, the current liabilities of the Group

exceeded its current assets by $849,000.

The Board has considered all information available at the

date of signing the consolidated financial statements (refer

to subsequent event Note 21) and is of the opinion that the

Group is a going concern based on:

• Available liquidity levels, undrawn and available debt

on the loan facilities and forecast cashflows for at least

12 months being sufficient to cover future obligations

when they fall due;

• Forecast cashflows have taken into consideration

known tenant circumstances, costs to be incurred in

respect to developments, expected future expenses

and provisions to fund any anticipated cash

requirements in the current environment.

4. Financial Risk Management Objectives and Policies

The Group's principal financial instruments comprise bank loans, cash, trade receivables and payables. Financial assets

and liabilities are recognised on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position when the Group becomes a party to the

contractual provisions of the instrument.

The main risks arising from the Group’s financial instruments are interest rate risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and fair value risk.

The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing each of these risks and they are summarised below.

Interest rate risk

The Group has exposure to interest rate risk to the extent that it borrows for fixed terms at floating interest rates.

The Directors assess this risk on an ongoing basis and if deemed significant, will instruct the Group to enter into interest rate

swaps to manage material exposure. The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk and the effective weighted interest rates for

each class of financial asset and financial liability were:

Total Financial Liabilities-(11,440)(11,440)(11,440)

Credit risk

In the Board's opinion, the Group trades only with recognised,

creditworthy third parties, whose obligations to the Group

are contractually enforceable under tenancy agreements and

car park licences. Financial instruments, which potentially

subject the Group to credit risk, principally consist of bank

balances, receivables and advances to tenants.

With respect to credit risk arising from the other financial

assets of the Group, which comprise interest received on

cash and cash equivalents, the Group’s exposure to credit

risk arises from default of the counter party, with a maximum

exposure equal to the carrying amount of these instruments.

Bank of New Zealand, who is the counter party in respect to

these financial assets of the Group, currently holds an AA-

credit rating (issued by Standard & Poors)

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk arises from the Group’s financial liabilities and

the ability to meet all its obligations to repay financial liabilities

as and when they fall due. The Group actively monitors its

position to ensure that sufficient funds are available to meet

liabilities as they arise. Liquidity is monitored on a regular basis

and reported to the Board regularly.

The table below reflects all contractually fixed pay-offs

for settlement and repayments resulting from recognised

financial liabilities. This table is based on all interest rate

variables being held constant over the relevant period of

time. It does not allow for potential future margin or base

rate changes as these can not be easily identified as at

balance date. All payments are undiscounted and the timing

of the cash flows is based on the contractual terms of the

underlying contract. Interest payable is based on the drawn

debt at balance date.

Fair value risk

A comparison between financial assets and financial liabilities fair value and carrying amounts is set out below.

The net fair value is not materially different from the carrying value. The methods used for determining fair value

have been disclosed in Note 14.

Capital Management

The Group’s capital includes contributed capital and

accumulated loss.

When managing capital, the Director's objective is to

ensure the entity continues as a going concern as well as

to maintain optimal returns to shareholders. As the market

is constantly changing, management and the Board of

Directors consider capital and management initiatives.

The Directors have the discretion to change (or cease) the

amount of dividends to be paid to shareholders accordingly,

issue new shares or sell investment property to reduce debt.

Capital is also monitored through the gearing ratio.

The Group’s policies in respect of capital management and

allocation, including loan covenants are reviewed quarterly

by the Board of Directors.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise of cash on hand,

demand deposits and other short term highly liquid

investments that are readily convertible to a known

amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk

of changes in value.

Financial Instruments

Classification of financial instruments.

The Group classifies its financial assets as fair value

through profit and loss (“FVTPL”), fair value through other

comprehensive income (“FVTOCI”) and amortised cost

according to the Group’s business objectives for managing

the financial assets and based on the contractual cash

characteristics of the financial assets. At each reporting

date, the Group classifies all its financial liabilities as

amortised cost or FVTPL.

Accounting policy

Rental Revenue

Rental revenue is the Group's primary revenue stream. Net rental revenue is recognised in accordance with NZ IFRS 16

Leases. Substantially all property owned by the Group is leased to third party tenants. As the Group retains substantially

all the risks and benefits of ownership of its investment properties, it accounts for leases with its tenants as operating

leases and begins recognising income when the tenant has a right to use the leased asset. The total amount of contractual

rent to be received from operating leases is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease; including any

lease incentives which are amortised to profit and loss over the same period and reduce rental income recognised.

Net rental revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in the relevant rental agreement. The lease term

varies between properties and individual tenants within those properties.

Rental abatements were provided to some of the tenants due to Covid-19 and this has reduced the rental income for the

year. Total abatements for the year ended 31 March 2022 are $254,000 (2021: $65,000). In addition rental relief was

provided to some of the tenants due to Covid-19 which was classified as a lease modification. Total relief granted for the

year ended 31 March 2022 is $31,000 (2021: $332,000). The relief granted has been capitalised and is amortised on a

straight-line basis over the remaining lease period.

Effective from 18 August 2021, the Government enacted an amendment to the Property Law Act in response to the

continued economic impacts of Covid-19. The amendment implied a new clause into every lease (where there was not

already an equivalent clause) which applied if there was an epidemic and tenants were unable to gain access to their

premises to fully conduct their operations because of reasons of health or safety relating to the epidemic. Where the new

clause applies, only "a fair proportion" of the rent is payable.

Accounting policy

Interest Revenue

Interest revenue consists of interest accrued on cash deposits and is recognised using the effective interest method.

Interest and Finance Costs

Finance costs, including borrowing costs and interest payable on borrowings, are recognised in the consolidated

statement of comprehensive income when incurred. Borrowing costs incurred that do not relate to qualifying assets

are treated as an expense and are not capitalised. Prepaid loan establishment fees are recognised on the consolidated

statement of financial position and capitalised (if related to a qualifying asset) or expensed over the term of the loan

agreement (Note 12) on a straight line basis.

The rental receivables on the previous page are based on contracted amounts as at 31 March 2022 and 31 March 2021.

Actual rental amounts collected in future will differ due to upward rental review provisions within the lease agreements.

There are multiple leases and tenants. The rent review mechanisms and frequency vary for each lease. Each lease has

renewal dates whereby the lessee has the right to renew for an agreed term. The minimum lease payments receivable reflect

the minimum lease terms and do not include any options for renewal due to the uncertainty as to whether the options will be

exercised. The figures above also exclude the recovery of rates and insurance disclosed under lease income in accordance with

NZ IFRS 16 since this is a variable lease payment that does not depend on an index or rate.

The future minimum receivable rental for the Eastgate Shopping Centre is assumed to be the earliest varied settlement date for

the unconditional sale of Eastgate Shopping Centre, being 1 April 2022. Refer to Note 11 for further details on the sale of the

Eastgate Shopping Centre.

7. Income Tax

Accounting policy

Income tax in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is

recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity, in which case it is

recognised in equity.

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

balance date, and any adjustment to income tax payable in respect of previous periods. Current tax for current and prior

periods is recognised as a liability (or asset ) to the extent it is unpaid (or refundable).

Deferred tax is provided for using the liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amounts of

assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except:

• When the deferred tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a transaction

that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor the

taxable profit or loss.

• In respect of the taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests

in joint ventures, when the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled and it is probable that

the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused tax assets

and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible

temporary differences, and the carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax losses can be utilised, except:

• When the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises from the initial

recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the

transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.

• When the deductible temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or interests

in joint ventures, in which case a deferred tax asset is only recognised to the extent that it is probable that the

temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the

temporary difference can be utilised.

The carrying amount of any deferred income tax asset is reviewed at each reporting 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 income tax asset

to be utilised. Deferred income 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) that have been enacted or

substantively enacted at balance date.

The Group has applied the rebuttable presumption under NZ IAS 12 that deferred tax on investment property measured

using the fair value model in NZ IAS 40 is determined on the basis that its carrying amount will be recovered through sale.

The Group holds investment properties for the purpose of capital appreciation and rental income and therefore the

measurement of any related deferred tax reflects the tax consequences of recovering the carrying amount of the

investment property entirely through sale. In New Zealand there is no capital gains tax, therefore the tax consequences

on sale will be limited to depreciation previously claimed for tax purposes (i.e. depreciation recovered).

8. Segment Reporting

The principal business activity of the Group is to invest in New Zealand properties. Investment properties have similar

economic characteristics, methods of management and are under leases of various terms. Segment reporting is presented

in a consistent manner with internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker, the Board. The Board receives

internal financial information on a property by property basis, assesses property performance and decides on the resource

allocation. The Group operates only in New Zealand. On this basis all of the Group’s properties have been aggregated into a

single reporting segment to most appropriately reflect the nature and financial effects of the business activities. The Group has

no unallocated revenue, expenses, assets or liabilities and this approach has been applied to comparative periods.

9. Trade and Other Receivables

Accounting policy

Trade receivables, other receivables and prepayments are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs and

subsequently carried at amortised costs using the effective interest rate method less an allowance for any impairment

losses. Due to their short term nature, trade receivable, other receivables and prepayments are not discounted.

The Group makes use of a simplified approach in accounting for trade receivables and records the loss allowance

as lifetime expected credit losses. These are the expected shortfalls in contractual cash flows, considering the

potential for default at any point during the life of the financial instrument. In calculating, the Group uses its

historical experience, external indicators and forward looking information to calculate the expected credit losses.

The impairment of trade receivables is assessed on a collective basis (grouped based on the days past due), as they

possess shared credit risk characteristics.

Further disclosure details on the expected credit loss model have not been included in the financial statements as the

amounts involved are considered by the Directors of the Group to be immaterial.

10. Investment & Development Properties

Accounting policy

Investment properties which are held exclusively to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation are classified as investment

properties at their acquisition date. These are initially recognised at cost plus related costs of acquisition. After initial

recognition, investment properties are stated at fair value as determined by an independent registered valuer. Investment

properties are valued annually. The fair value is based on market values, being the price that would be received to sell

the property in an orderly transaction at the date of valuation after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted

knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion.

Investment properties that are being constructed or developed for future use are classified as development properties and

are measured at cost, as cost represents the fair value. Development properties are carried at fair value when fair value

can be reliably determined, which is expected to be upon completion. All costs directly associated with the purchase and

construction of a property and all subsequent capital expenditure is capitalised. Gains or losses arising from changes

in the fair value of development properties held at fair value are included in profit or loss in the year in which they arise.

Development properties are carried at fair value when fair value can be reliably determined, which is expected to be

upon completion. Development properties are re-classified as Investment properties upon practical completion of the

development and the property is held to be leased out under an operating lease.

In the absence of an active market, alternative valuation techniques are utilised which may include discounted cash

flow projections, capitalisation of income or sales comparison approach as appropriate to the property being valued.

The valuations are prepared by considering the aggregate of the estimated cash flows expected from rental income, the

occupancy rates, average lease terms and capitalisation rates which reflect the current market conditions. The estimate of

fair value is a judgement which has been made based on the market conditions which apply at each reporting date.

Investment properties are derecognised either when they have been disposed of or when the investment property is

permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefit is expected from its disposal. Any gains or losses on the

disposal of an investment property are recognised in profit or loss in the period of derecognition.

The tables below outline the movements in the carrying values for all directly owned investment properties:

WIP (work in progress) relates to costs incurred in relation to future development work which were not included in the inputs to the valuation calculation by the independent valuers.

These costs include design, consents and other direct costs capitalised as development costs.

The independent valuations are adjusted for the carrying value of capitalised lease incentives and capitalised leasing fees as in

determining the carrying amount of investment property under the fair value model, an entity does not double count assets or

liabilities that are recognised as separate assets or liabilities.

The fair value of Stoddard Road is determined by the independent valuation using the capitalisation and discounted

cashflow approach.

The independent valuation was conducted by an independent registered valuer, listed below, who is a member of the

Institute of Valuers of New Zealand. The valuer is experienced in valuing commercial properties.

The 35 Graham Street fair value has been determined based on the forecast future discounted cash flows of the sale up to the

settlement on 1 December 2023. The forecast future cash flows include the initial deposit received of $6.5 million assuming

the shareholder vote has passed in early June 2022, the forecast operating expenditure and the settlement proceeds. A

discount rate of 5.5% has been used which reflects the assumed forecast credit characteristics, including funding costs, of the

counterparty up to settlement. Historical WIP in respect to 35 Graham Street has been reclassified as capital expenditure to

determine the carrying value, prior to the revaluation. On 12 April 2022 a sale and purchase agreement was entered into for the

sale of 35 Graham Street (refer to note 21). 35 Graham Street did not meet the criteria to be held for sale as at 31 March 2022.

Munroe Lane is held at cost representing the accumulated gross development cost as at 31 March 2022 in accordance with IAS

40.78. Munroe Lane is not held at fair value due to the lack of a reliable assessable fair value at its stage of development as at

31 March 2022. Accumulated cost has been tested for impairment.

The Eastgate Shopping Centre fair value represents the contracted sale price.

The Kamo fair value represents the assessed realisable value determined by the independent land valuation.

In the prior year, all properties, excluding development property, that are not expected to be sold in the next 12 months were

valued on a fair value basis at each reporting date by independent registered valuers, listed below, who are members of the

Institute of Valuers of New Zealand. These valuers are experienced in valuing commercial properties. The WIP in relation to the

future development at Graham Street is carried at cost. The land at Munroe Lane and at Kamo is valued separately from the

WIP from the development, Land is valued at fair value, WIP is carried at cost.

*The represents the valuers' assessment of the net market income which a property is expected to achieve under a new arm’s length leasing transaction.

**Represents the period of time that has been allowed to re-let a tenancy at the end of each existing lease of the properties.

Investment property values are assessed within a range indicated by at least two valuation approaches, other than

undeveloped land. Most commonly the capitalisation of net income approach and the discounted cash flow approach are used

to value income producing properties. The sales comparison approach is used to appraise both developed and undeveloped

plots of land.

Estimates are used in these valuations. These include the capitalisation rate in the income capitalisation approach, the discount

rate in the discounted cash flow approach and rate per square meter in the sales comparison approach. The 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, other capital payments, time, location, quality and overall condition.

Among other factors, all valuation approaches consider the quality of the building and its location, tenant quality, lease terms

and any lease incentive costs such as rent-free periods and other costs not paid by the tenant.

11. Properties Held for Sale

Accounting policy

Investment property is transferred to investment property held for sale when it is expected that the carrying amount

will be recovered principally through sale rather than from continuing use. The property is held at the realisable value,

being fair value less cost to sell. These properties are held for immediate sale in their present condition. The value of

these properties is reassessed at each reporting date with gains and losses arising from changes in fair values being

recognised in profit and loss.

Investment properties which meet the requirements of assets held for sale will be reclassified on the date these

requirements are met. These properties will continue to be measured under the fair value model with any gains or

losses being recognised in profit or loss in accordance with NZ IAS 40 Investment Properties. Revenue on the sale of

properties held for sale is recognised when the risks and rewards have transferred to the buyer. The carrying value

represents the sale price in respect to the property.

Impact of Covid-19

The valuations take into account the impact of Covid-19 in inputs and market evidence adopted. Some valuations state that

there may be a greater range around their opinion of "market value" than would normally be the case and/or that values and

incomes may change more rapidly and significantly than during standard market conditions.

Valuation Sensitivity

This sensitivity analysis outlines how movements in the discount rate and capitalisation rate impact to the fair value of the

investment properties that use the Discounted Cash Flow and Capitalisation valuation approaches. The discount rate is used in

the discounted cash flow approach and the capitalisation rate is used in the capitalisation approach.

On 4 October 2021 the settlement date for the Sale and Purchase agreement (“SPA”) of Eastgate was varied to 1 April 2022.

On 24 February 2022 the agreement was further amended to allow the Purchaser to carry out a subdivision of the property.

Under the amendment, settlement will be 15 working days following new titles being issued for the property. If new titles have

not issued by 1 July 2022, Asset Plus may provide written notice to the Purchaser that they intend to terminate the agreement.

If the Purchaser does not settle within 7 working days of that notice, Asset Plus may terminate the agreement, and retain the

deposit paid (31 March 2021: On 22 February 2021 the Group entered into an unconditional sale of purchase agreement to

dispose of Eastgate Shopping Centre. A $1.5m deposit was received on 23 February 2021 in relation to the sale and is included

in trade payables, accruals and provisions).

An active marketing campaign to sell Kamo commenced on 16 March 2022.

These properties were initially classified as investment properties and were subsequently reclassified to properties held for sale.

12. Borrowings

Accounting policy

Borrowings are classified as financial liabilities at amortised cost. They are initially recognised at fair value of the

consideration less directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, borrowings are stated at

amortised cost using the effective interest method. Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Group has

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

Borrowing costs are recognised as an expense when incurred, unless they relate to a qualifying asset and are

capitalised when incurred. Borrowing costs capitalised on qualifying assets during the year were $1.69m (2021:$497k).

13. Trade Payables, Accruals and Provisions

Accounting policy

Trade and other payables

Trade payables are classified as financial liabilities and are initially measured at fair value less any transaction costs

and subsequently carried at amortised cost and due to their short term nature, are not discounted. They represent

liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise

when the Group becomes obliged to make future payments in respect to the purchase of these goods and services.

Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which it is

probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that the outflow can be reliably measured.

14. Fair Value Measurement

Accounting policy

Financial assets/liabilities classified as fair value through profit and loss (“FVTPL”) are initially recognised at their

fair value and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Gains and losses recorded on each

revaluation date are recognised within profit or loss. Transaction costs of financial assets classified as FVTPL are

expensed in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

The table below sets out the comparison by category of carrying amounts, fair values, and fair value movement hierarchy of the

Group's investment properties and borrowings:

The quoted market price (Level 1) represents the fair value determined based on quoted prices in active markets as at the

reporting date. For financial instruments not quoted in active markets (Level 2) the Group uses present value techniques,

with a comparison to similar instruments for which market observable prices exist and other relevant models used by market

participants, which includes current swap rates on offer and also the current floating interest rate (interest rate swaps). For

properties held for sale and investment properties (Level 3), the Group uses present value techniques based on forecasted

future earnings.

There are no transfers between Level 1, 2 or 3 during the financial year ended 31 March 2022 (2021: None).

The Group has also assessed possible impairment for 12-month expected loss or life-time expected loss on trade and other

receivables and notes that the outcome of this is $73,000 (2021: $75,000).

Independent Auditor’s Report
Independent

Auditor’s Report

To the Shareholders of Asset Plus Limited

Report on the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Asset Plus Limited (the “Company”) and its subsidiary (together

the “Group”) on pages 32 to 55 which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 March 2022,

and the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated

statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary

of significant accounting policies

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial

position of the Group as at 31 March 2022 and its financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in

accordance with New Zealand Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (“NZ IFRS”) issued by the New

Zealand Accounting Standards Board.

Basis for Opinion

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

the New Zealand Auditing and Assurance Standards Board. 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 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) issued by the New Zealand

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

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

fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements and the IESBA Code. We believe that the

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

Our firm carries out other related assurance assignments for the Group. The firm has no other interest in 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 period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the

consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate

opinion on these matters.

56

Independent Auditor’s Report (continued)
Why the matter is significantHow our audit addressed the Key Audit Matter

Investment property and non-current assets

held for sale valuations

The Group’s investment properties and non-current assets

held for sale have an assessed value of $170 million and

$46.4 million respectively and make up most of the assets

of the Group.

In the application of NZ IFRS, management is required

to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about

carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily

apparent from other sources. The estimates, assumptions

and methodology for determining the values are specific to

the nature, location and expected future rental income for

each property.

Where appropriate, the Group engaged independent

registered valuers or used a contractual selling price to

determine the value of the property.

If the property is under construction and the Group were

unable to determine a value of a property, management

carried the property at its cost price.

The estimates, assumptions and methods used in

determining the value of the properties, may not be

appropriate and as a result we have considered these to be

significant to our audit

We have:

• Obtained and agreed the schedule of investment

properties to the respective independent valuation

reports, performed by valuation experts or management;

• Evaluated the independence, qualifications and

work of each valuation expert, for each of the

investment properties;

• Inquired about and documented the methods and

assumptions used by the expert and considered the

appropriateness of those assumptions and methods

used, for each property valuation;

• Confirmed each property valuation was performed in

accordance with appropriate accounting standards

for use in determining the carrying value of investment

property as at 31 March 2022;

• Verified the accuracy of any costs capitalised against

properties (with a focus on development properties

which are carried at cost ) by selecting a sample of

transactions, tracing it to supporting documentation and

validating whether the transactions meets the criteria for

capitalisation;

• Recalculated the fair value adjustment to be recorded

for the year for each investment property as at 31

March 2022;

• Considered the adequacy of the disclosures made

in Note 3 Significant Accounting Estimates and

Judgements, Note 10 Investment and Development

Properties and Note 11 Properties Held for Sale, to

the consolidated financial statements, which sets out

the key judgements and estimates including valuation

techniques and significant unobservable inputs applied

to determine fair value of the investment property; and

• Discussed with management changes in the investment

property portfolio, including any property development,

controls in place surrounding the valuation process

and the impact Covid-19 pandemic has had on

the investment property portfolio including rental

abatements, occupancy risk, growth rates.

Independent Auditor’s Report (continued)
Other Information

The Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the annual report but does not

include the consolidated financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The annual report is expected to be made

available to us after the date of this auditor’s report.

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

audit opinion or assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information

identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent

with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

Directors’ responsibilities for the Consolidated Financial Statements

The Directors are responsible on behalf of the Group for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial

statements in accordance with New Zealand equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards issued by the New

Zealand Accounting Standards Board, 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 on behalf of the Group for assessing the

Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going

concern basis of accounting unless the 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 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) 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 the auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the External

Reporting Board’s website at: https://www.xrb.govt.nz/assurance-standards/auditors-responsibilities/audit-report-1/

Restriction on use of our report

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

state to the Company’s shareholders, as a body 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
