GOODMAN PROPERTY TRUST | INTERIM RESULT 2023
INDUSTRIAL SECTOR REMAINS RESILIENT
AMIDST UNCERTAIN ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT
Strong first half operating performance consistent with expectations
+Full year guidance firmed, with forecast cash earnings of at least 6.9 cents per unit, up 4% on FY22
GMT is continuing to benefit from a growing digital economy and sustained demand for well-located warehouse and
logistics space
+The Auckland industrial market has historically low vacancy and the Trust’s urban logistics portfolio is at capacity
+The positive leasing dynamic is contributing to strong income growth, with new rental benchmarks being achieved
+The highly constrained market means customers are securing space early and many are committing to longer lease terms
+It is also supporting a record level of development activity for the Trust, with around 150,000 sqm of warehouse and logistics space
under development
A sustainable and prudent capital management strategy is supporting GMT’s development led growth
+Asset values stable at 30 September 2022, balance sheet strength provides substantial headroom
+Conservatively low gearing and significant liquidity provide the financial flexibility to fund current development commitments and
selective acquisition opportunities
+Creation of Sustainable Finance Framework and inaugural $150 million Green Bond funding new sustainable developments
targeting 5 Green Star Built ratings

GOODMAN PROPERTY TRUST INTERIM REPORT 2023 | GMT BOND ISSUER LIMITED INTERIM REPORT 20234
Highbrook Business Park, East Tāmaki
GMT’s urban logistics
portfolio provides
essential supply chain
infrastructure that links
producers with business,
and business with
consumers.
5GOODMAN PROPERTY TRUST INTERIM REPORT 2023 | GMT BOND ISSUER LIMITED INTERIM REPORT 2023
GMT is continuing to benefit
from the growth in e-commerce
and sustained demand for
well-located warehouse and
logistics space, despite a more
volatile macro environment.
GMT’s first half operating results saw a 7.4%
increase in cash earnings to $49.4 million,
demonstrating the strength of an investment
strategy exclusively focused on the Auckland
industrial market.
With occupancy of 99.6% the Trust’s
$4.9 billion portfolio is effectively at capacity.
High levels of customer demand are being
reflected in significant new leasing activity,
accelerating rental growth and further
development commitments.
A growing digital economy and new space
requirements from customers to accommodate
business growth and higher inventory levels, are
contributing to the positive demand dynamic.
Leasing and development enquiry remains
strong, with the portfolio expected to deliver
a similar operating performance over the
second half of the year.
The Board has firmed its full year guidance, with
forecast cash earnings of at least 6.9 cents per
unit. Cash distributions totalling 5.9 cents per
unit are expected to be paid, consistent with
the Trust’s policy to pay-out between 80% and
90% of cash earnings.
Recognising that today’s world is uncertain,
and that a slowing global economy makes the
business outlook more challenging, the guidance
is subject to there being no adverse events or
unforeseen changes in market conditions.
FINANCIAL OVERVIEW
GMT’s operating performance has
demonstrated the resilience of the Auckland
industrial sector, with new rental benchmarks
being achieved for its prime warehouse and
logistics space.
Additional revenue from development
completions, complementary acquisitions
and new leasing have been the main drivers
of the 12.4% increase in net property
income, to $88.2 million.
Operating earnings after tax reflect a
corresponding increase, up 11.0% from
the previous period to $54.6 million
(3.89 cents per unit).

ADAPTING TO
A CHANGING MARKET
GOODMAN PROPERTY TRUST INTERIM REPORT 2023 | GMT BOND ISSUER LIMITED INTERIM REPORT 20236
Cash earnings of 3.52 cents per unit are in
line with expectations and cash distributions
of 2.95 cents per unit have been declared for
the six months.
The value of the Trust’s property portfolio has
remained stable despite rising interest rates.
Desktop valuation advice from independent
valuers supports the carrying value of the
Trust’s property assets at 30 September 2022.
A 40bps softening in the weighted average
capitalisation rate across the portfolio to 4.6%,
has been offset by the value of new leasing
and increases in market rents.
GMT’s profit before tax was $48.8 million,
compared to $570.0 million at 30 September
2021. The principal variance being a
$504.7 million portfolio revaluation in the
previous corresponding period.
Net tangible asset backing of 260.7 cents
per unit was largely unchanged from
31 March 2022.
PORTFOLIO PERFORMANCE
Historically low vacancy levels are contributing
to a highly constrained market, with very
few options for customers with new space
requirements.
The unprecedented level of demand is reflected
in the Trust’s leasing results, with 143,384 sqm
of existing space (13.6% of the stabilised
portfolio) secured on new or revised terms
since 31 March 2022.
Over 100,000 sqm of the new lease
commitments were renewals, highlighting the
strategic value of GMT’s investment locations
and strength of its long-term customer
relationships.
Industrial space is experiencing strong rental
growth as customers seek to improve supply
chain resilience and recognise the productivity
benefits of well-located and operationally
efficient facilities.
GMT’s recent leasing transactions reflect this
growth, with a 5.6% increase in net property
income (on a like-for-like basis).
The level of under-renting within the core
portfolio (being the difference between contract
and market rentals), is also growing. The
portfolio is assessed by valuers as 18% under-
rented at 30 September 2022. The benefits
of this reversion will be realised over time, as
contract rents are reviewed to market and
new leases are secured.
The table below summarises the key portfolio metrics at 30 September 2022.

GOODMAN PROPERTY TRUST INTERIM REPORT 2023 | GMT BOND ISSUER LIMITED INTERIM REPORT 20237
SUSTAINABLE, DEVELOPMENT-
LED GROWTH
The strength of current leasing demand has also
underpinned new design build commitments
from existing customers, Mainfreight and
Cotton On. The respective projects are being
developed at the Trust’s Savill Link and Roma
Road Estates in Ōtāhuhu and Mt Roskill.
To help meet future demand, two smaller
build-to-lease warehouses are now being
developed at Roma Road.
These four new projects add to the existing
development programme which now totals
$635.7 million.
The current workbook is around 93%
pre-committed, with an average lease term of
13.7 years. It will add almost 150,000 sqm
high-quality warehouse and logistics space to
the portfolio over the next few years.
A business-wide commitment to reducing its
environmental impact extends to the Trust’s
development programme, where a 5 Green Star
Built rating is being targeted for new projects.
The certification from the New Zealand Green
Building Council, assesses the sustainability
attributes of the development and the quality
of the workspaces it provides.
Achieving a 5 Green Star Built rating will
confirm that new GMT facilities can help reduce
a customers’ carbon footprint. A more resource
efficient building provides lower operating
costs for these businesses with healthy and
productive workspaces addressing wellbeing.
A more sustainable approach to development
includes the use of lower carbon materials and
building systems that aim to reduce emissions
in the construction phase.
This approach complements the Trust’s
business operations which are Toitū carbonzero
certified.

GOODMAN PROPERTY TRUST INTERIM REPORT 2023 | GMT BOND ISSUER LIMITED INTERIM REPORT 20238
CONSERVATIVE DEBT SETTINGS
The focus on sustainable development has also
supported GMT’s first Green Bond. The capital
management initiative undertaken in April 2022
secured $150 million of new debt to finance
eligible development projects, all targeting a
5 Green Star Built rating.
The establishment of a Sustainable Finance
Framework facilitated the inaugural green bond
and provides a platform for future debt issues
that support GMT’s sustainability goals.
With a loan to value ratio of 23.2% and
committed gearing of 27.7% at 30 September
2022, GMT’s borrowings remain well below the
50% maximum permitted under its Trust Deed
and debt facility covenants.
Low gearing and only partly drawn bank
facilities provide the financial flexibility to take
advantage of acquisition opportunities that offer
real strategic value. It also provides substantial
balance sheet headroom against any negative
market events that could impact property values.
DISCIPLINED INVESTMENT STRATEGY
The acquisition of the Sleepyhead
manufacturing facility at 41-71 Great South
Road in Ōtāhuhu is consistent with GMT’s
targeted investment strategy. Purchased
for $49.4 million, the four-hectare property
complements the existing portfolio and offers
future redevelopment opportunity.
Close to consumers and transport
infrastructure, infill locations are highly
sought after by urban logistics customers.
They offer a competitive advantage with
faster delivery times and the potential for
lower transport emissions and costs.
With a combination of greenfield and brownfield
development sites in the portfolio, GMT has a
potential pipeline of almost 400,000 sqm of
warehouse and logistics space. Realising the
value of these sites will contribute to GMT’s
long-term growth, with development timing
contingent on customer demand.
MODERATING BUSINESS OUTLOOK
The strength of GMT’s underlying operating
performance demonstrates the resilience of
the business and the benefits of an investment
strategy focused on urban logistics property.
Sustained customer demand is contributing
to high occupancy levels and strong rental
growth, with the Trust expected to deliver a
full year operating result consistent with cash
earnings guidance of at least 6.9 cents per unit.
The longer-term operating outlook is more
uncertain with rising interest rates, high inflation
and geo-political risks creating a more volatile
and challenging business environment.
By continuing to be disciplined with
investment decisions and closely managing
the delivery of its development programme,
the Trust remains well positioned to benefit
from the structural trends that are driving
demand for sustainable warehouse and
logistics space, close to consumers.

The Trust has commenced a preliminary assessment of the impact of plausible climate change
scenarios and will refine the outcomes of this when the climate standards are published in final
form.

Value -add
Those estates which generally consist of older properties that are likely to have redevelopment potential. Redevelopment of the properties to realise their maximum future value may require a

SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS
In May 2022, GMT completed the acquisition of a value-add property in Ōtāhuhu, Auckland for $49.4 million.
KEY JUDGEMENTS
At 30 September 2022, to ensure that stabilised properties and land are held at fair value the Board determined that a desktop review be performed. The desktop review on each
property was completed by the same independent valuer who completed full independent valuations at 31 March 2022. The desktop reviews resulted in no change to the fair value
recorded for stabilised properties and land. At 30 September 2021, the fair value of stabilised properties and land were determined by full independent valuations.
At 30 September 2022, all developments are held at cost and tested for impairment. At 30 September 2021, developments adequately progressed to allow fair value to be reliably
determined were independently valued. All other developments were held at cost and tested for impairment.

2. Borrowings (continued)
2.3. Composition of borrowings (continued)
As at 30 September 2022 and 31 March 2022, $570.0 million of syndicated bank facilities was provided to the Trust by Bank of New Zealand ($185.0 million), Commonwealth Bank of
Australia ($150.0 million), The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited ($130.0 million) and Westpac New Zealand Limited ($105.0 million). An additional $100.0 million facility
was provided to the Trust by Bank of New Zealand.
As at 30 September 2022, GMT’s drawn borrowings had a weighted average remaining term of 4.4 years (31 March 2022: 4.6 years), with 80% being drawn from non-bank sources
(31 March 2022: 85%). Calculation of the weighted average remaining term assumes bank debt utilises the longest dated facilities.
2.4. Security and covenants
All borrowing facilities are secured on an equal ranking basis over the assets of the wholly owned subsidiaries of Goodman Property Trust. A loan to value ratio covenant restricts total
borrowings incurred by the Group to 50% of the value of the secured property portfolio.
The Group has given a negative pledge to not create or permit any security interest over its assets. The principal financial ratios which must be met are the ratio of earnings before interest,
tax, depreciation and amortisation to interest expense, and the ratio of financial indebtedness to the value of the property portfolio. Further negative and positive undertakings have been
given as to the nature of the Group’s business.

KEY JUDGEMENT
The fair values of derivative financial instruments are determined from valuations using Level 2 valuation techniques. These are based on the present value of estimated future
cash flows, taking account of the terms and maturity of each contract and the current market interest rates at the reporting date. Fair values also reflect the creditworthiness of the
derivative counterparty and GMT at the reporting date. The valuations were based on market rates at 30 September 2022 of between 3.85% for the 90-day BKBM and 4.51%
for the 10-year swap rate (31 March 2022: 1.61% for the 90-day BKBM and 3.38% 10-year swap rate). There were no changes to these valuation techniques during the period.

REPORT ON THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Our conclusion
We have reviewed the interim financial statements of Goodman Property Trust (the Trust)
and its controlled entities (together, the Group), which comprise the balance sheet as at
30 September 2022, and the statement of profit or loss, the statement of changes in equity
and the statement of cash flows for the six months ended 30 September 2022, and significant
accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the
accompanying interim financial statements of the Group do not present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of the Group as at 30 September 2022, and its financial
performance and cash flows for the six month period then ended, in accordance with International
Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting (IAS 34) and New Zealand Equivalent to
International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting (NZ IAS 34).
Basis for conclusion
We conducted our review in accordance with the New Zealand Standard on Review Engagements
2410 (Revised) Review of Financial Statements Performed by the Independent Auditor of
the Entity (NZ SRE 2410 (Revised)). Our responsibilities are further described in the Auditor’s
responsibilities for the review of the interim financial statements section of our report.
We are independent of the Group in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements in
New Zealand relating to the audit of the annual financial statements, and we have fulfilled our
other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these ethical requirements. In addition to our role
as auditor, our firm carries out other services for the Group in the areas of assurance services
relating to the performance fee calculation, agreed upon procedures relating to financial covenants
of the bank facilities and reporting to the supervisor of GMT Bond Issuer Limited. The provision of
these other services has not impaired our independence.
Responsibilities of the directors of Goodman (NZ) Limited for the interim financial statements
The Board of the Manager (Goodman (NZ) Limited) are responsible on behalf of the Trust for the
preparation and fair presentation of these interim financial statements in accordance with IAS 34
and NZ IAS 34 and for such internal control as the Board of the Manager determine is necessary
to enable the preparation and fair presentation of the interim financial statements that are free
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the review of the interim financial statements
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the interim financial statements based on our
review. NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) requires us to conclude whether anything has come to our attention
that causes us to believe that the interim financial statements, taken as a whole, are not prepared in
all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and NZ IAS 34.
A review of interim financial statements in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) is a limited
assurance engagement. We perform procedures, primarily consisting of making enquiries,
primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and
other review procedures. The procedures performed in a review are substantially less than those
performed in an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and
International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand) and consequently does not enable us to obtain
assurance that we might identify in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion on
these interim financial statements
Who we report to
This report is made solely to the Trust’s unitholders, as a body. Our review work has been
undertaken so that we might state those matters which we are required to state to them in our
review 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 Trust’s unitholders, as a body, for our review
procedures, for this report, or for the conclusion we have formed.
The engagement partner on the review resulting in this independent auditor’s review report is
Lisa Crooke.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF GMT BOND ISSUER LIMITED
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REVIEW REPORT
To the shareholder of GMT Bond Issuer Limited
REPORT ON THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Our conclusion
We have reviewed the interim financial statements of GMT Bond Issuer Limited (the Company),
which comprise the balance sheet as at 30 September 2022, and the statement of profit or loss,
the statement of changes in equity and the statement of cash flows for the six month period ended
on that date, and significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that these
accompanying interim financial statements of the Company do not present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of the Company as at 30 September 2022, and its financial
performance and cash flows for the six month period then ended, in accordance with International
Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting (IAS 34) and New Zealand Equivalent to
International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting (NZ IAS 34).
Basis for conclusion
We conducted our review in accordance with the New Zealand Standard on Review Engagements
2410 (Revised) Review of Financial Statements Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity
(NZ SRE 2410 (Revised)). Our responsibilities are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities
for the review of the interim financial statements section of our report.
We are independent of the Company in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements in
New Zealand relating to the audit of the annual financial statements, and we have fulfilled our
other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these ethical requirements. In addition to our
role as auditor, our firm carries out other services for the Company in the area of reporting to the
supervisor. The provision of these other services has not impaired our independence.
Responsibilities of the Board of GMT Bond Issuer Limited for the interim financial statements
The Board of the Company are responsible on behalf of the Company for the preparation and fair
presentation of these interim financial statements in accordance with IAS 34 and NZ IAS 34 and
for such internal control as the Board determine is necessary to enable the preparation and fair
presentation of the interim financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether
due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the review of the interim financial statements
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the interim financial statements based on our
review. NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) requires us to conclude whether anything has come to our attention
that causes us to believe that the interim financial statements, taken as a whole, are not prepared in
all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and NZ IAS 34.
A review of interim financial statements in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) is a limited
assurance engagement. We perform procedures, primarily consisting of making enquiries,
primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical
and other review procedures. The procedures performed in a review are substantially less than
those performed in an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing
(New Zealand) and International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to
obtain assurance that we might identify in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion
on these interim financial statements.
Who we report to
This report is made solely to the Company’s Shareholder. Our review work has been undertaken
so that we might state those matters which we are required to state to them in our review 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 Shareholder, for our review procedures, for this report,
or for the conclusion we have formed.
The engagement partner on the review resulting in this independent auditor’s review report is

Customer demand supports strong first-half operating result
Date 10 November 2022
Release Immediate
Goodman (NZ) Limited, the manager of Goodman Property Trust (GMT or
Trust) is pleased to announce the Trust’s financial results for the six months to
30 September 2022.
The strength of GMT’s underlying operating performance demonstrates the resilience of the
business and the benefits of an investment strategy focused on urban logistics property.
Key highlights include:
+ A 6.8% increase in operating earnings
1
, to $64.3 million before tax
+ Cash earnings
2
of 3.52 cents per unit, and distributions of 2.95 cents per unit
+ Statutory interim profit of $48.8 million before tax, compared to $570.0 million at
30 September 2021
+ Accelerating rental growth supporting stable investment property values, with net tangible
assets of 260.7 cents per unit
+ Strong balance sheet, with a loan to value ratio
3
of 23.2% and $446 million of liquidity
+ Inaugural green bond issue in April 2022, securing $150 million of new debt
+ Sustained customer demand with 143,384 sqm of new leasing (13.6% of the stabilised
portfolio), average occupancy of 99.6% and a weighted average lease term of more than
six years
+ A record level of development activity with $635.7 million
4
of work in progress
+ Acquisition of a 4-hectare redevelopment site in Ōtāhuhu for $49.35 million.
RESULT OVERVIEW
A stable portfolio valuation at 30 September 2022 contrasts with a substantial $504.7 million
revaluation in the previous corresponding period and is the principal driver of GMT’s lower
interim profit.
Keith Smith, Chair of Goodman (NZ) Limited said, “The most pleasing aspect of this interim
result has been GMT’s underlying operating performance. A 7.4% increase in cash earnings
to $49.4 million demonstrating the strength of our investment strategy and quality of our
customer relationships.”
GMT is continuing to benefit from the growth in e-commerce and sustained demand for well-
located warehouse and logistics space, close to consumers. With occupancy of 99.6% the
Trust’s $4.9 billion portfolio is effectively at capacity.

Chief Executive Officer, John Dakin said, “A heightened level of customer demand is being
reflected in significant new leasing activity, accelerating rental growth and further development
commitments.”
A growing digital economy and new space requirements from customers to accommodate
business growth and higher inventory levels, are contributing to the positive demand dynamic.
The portfolio is expected to deliver a similar operating performance over the second half of the
year.
Keith Smith said, “The Board has firmed its full year guidance, with forecast cash earnings of
at least 6.9 cents per unit. Cash distributions totalling 5.9 cents per unit are expected to be
paid, consistent with the Trust's policy to pay-out between 80% and 90% of cash earnings.”

2023. A copy of the report, which was released today, has been provided to the NZX and is
available on the Trust’s website at: www.goodman.com/nz.
HEIGHTENED LEVELS OF CUSTOMER DEMAND
Historically low vacancy levels are contributing to a highly constrained market, with very few
options for customers with new space requirements.
John Dakin said, “GMT’s leasing results have demonstrated the strength of the Auckland
industrial sector, with new rental benchmarks being achieved for our prime warehouse and
logistics properties.”
New leasing and growth in market rents have also helped maintain GMT’s property values
over the last six months, offsetting a softening in the portfolio capitalisation rate.
John Dakin said, “Leasing and development enquiry levels remain strong as customers
seek to improve supply chain resilience and recognise the productivity benefits of well-
located and operationally efficient facilities.”
SUSTAINABLE, DEVELOPMENT-LED GROWTH
The strength of current leasing demand has also underpinned two new design build
commitments at the Trust’s Savill Link and Roma Road Estates in Ōtāhuhu and Mt Roskill.
To help meet future demand, two smaller build-to-lease warehouses are also being
developed at Roma Road.
John Dakin said, “These four new projects will see our development programme grow to
over $635 million.”
The current workbook is around 93% pre-committed, with an average lease term of
13.7 years. It will add almost 150,000 sqm high-quality warehouse and logistics space
to the portfolio over the next few years.
John Dakin said, “ A business-wide commitment to reducing our environmental impact
extends to the Trust’s development programme, where a 5 Green Star Built rating is being
targeted for new projects.”
CONSERVATIVE DEBT SETTINGS
The focus on sustainable development has supported GMT’s first Green Bond issue. The
establishment of a Sustainable Finance Framework facilitated the inaugural green bond and
provides a platform for future debt issues that support GMT’s sustainability goals.
With committed gearing of 27.7%, GMT’s borrowings remain well below the 50% maximum
permitted under its Trust Deed and debt facility covenants.
Low gearing and only partly drawn bank facilities provide the financial flexibility to take
advantage of acquisition opportunities that offer real, strategic value. It also provides

substantial balance sheet headroom against any negative market events that could impact
property values.
MODERATING BUSINESS OUTLOOK
Sustained customer demand is contributing to high occupancy levels and strong rental
growth, with the Trust expected to deliver a full year operating result consistent with cash
earnings guidance of at least 6.9 cents per unit.
The longer-term operating outlook is uncertain with rising interest rates, high inflation and
geo-political risks creating a more volatile and challenging business environment.
By continuing to be disciplined with investment decisions and closely managing the delivery
of its development programme, the Trust remains well positioned to benefit from the
structural trends that are driving demand for sustainable warehouse and logistics space,
close to consumers.
