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

months to 30 September 2022.

Key highlights for the period include:

• Net property income of $55.0 million, up 3.6%;

• Net distributable income of $32.9 million (flat on pcp);

• Adjusted Funds From Operations (AFFO) of $32.0 million, up 25.7%;

• Continued h igh occupancy (98.9%) and WALT (5.5 years);

• Strong portfolio leasing and rent review outcomes over the first half of the year, including

2.6% annualised rental growth on rents reviewed;

• Modest $23.5 million r evaluation loss resulting in a decrease in NTA per share to $1.72

from $1.74 at 31 March 2022;

• Continued successful focus on sustainability and progressing green developments; and

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

prior year

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

continued to build on the foundations laid in prior years in the first six months of FY23. While

rising interest rates, inflation and cost of living concerns continue to create headwinds for

the economy, Argosy has continued to deliver on strategy underpinned by a robust capital

position and resilient portfolio.

A key benefit of Argosy’s portfolio is the resilience that diversification by location and sector

provides through various economic cycles.


.2

The bottom-up fundamentals of the Auckland Industrial and Wellington Office sectors

remain strong, with both experiencing ongoing rental growth and low vacancy levels.

Rental income from Government tenancies also helps to underpin the company’s earnings

and dividends.

Argosy continued to execute on its Value Add opportunities over the first six months with the

completion and formal opening of 8-14 Willis Street in Wellington for Statistics New Zealand

in July.

Based on current projections for the portfolio and subject to market and interest rate

conditions, FY23 dividend guidance is reiterated at 6.65 cents per share, a 1.5% increase on

the prior year.”

Argosy’s Chief Executive Officer, Peter Mence said “We have started the year very well.

Operationally, the business is in good shape with several new leases and renewals being

addressed. The Auckland Office leasing market has proven to be more resilient than many

expected, particularly in the non-CBD segment. The current environment is showing a

decided preference by tenants for sustainable green rated buildings, and this is providing

benefits from decisions made by the company up to a decade ago.

The development team have continued to progress our Value Add opportunities at Mt

Richmond, Neilson Street and 105 Carlton Gore Road which is now over 50% leased. We

continue to receive strong market enquiry for these properties which underpin our green

development pipeline over the next few years.

We expect that the next 12 months will be challenging for the domestic economy but

believe the business is well placed and expect dividends to be consistent with guidance.

We will remain focused on achieving the best long term results for our shareholders while

being cognisant of the immediate hurdles and opportunities. To do this, we will continue to

develop our Value Add opportunities to deliver high quality, vibrant green spaces for our

tenants that support their growth aspirations. We will continue to focus on working with our

customers, addressing expiries and leasing vacancy within the portfolio. We expect to see

further rental growth in the portfolio over the next six months. All of these activities support

the delivery of our strategy and sustainable distributions to shareholders.”

Financial Results

Statement of Comprehensive Income

For the six months to 30 September, Argosy reported net property income of $55.0 million for

the period, up 3.6% compared with the prior comparable period.

The net property income increase was driven by steady like for like rental growth of 3.6%,

part period contributions from acquisitions (Maui Street) and developments (Willis Street)

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


.3

Net interest expense of $16.3 million was up $3.2 million on the prior comparable period, due

to higher floating interest rates and higher debt volume from acquisitions and development

expenditure.

An internal assessment of property valuations was undertaken at the end of the period and

reviewed by an independent valuer. Based on the internal assessment, a total unrealised

revaluation loss for the period of $23.5 million, or a 1% decrease to book value as at 30

September 2022, was adopted. Chairman Jeff Morrison said, “Although there is little

transactional evidence, the Argosy Board believed it was prudent to reflect wider market

expectation around softening market conditions up to 30 September.”

Argosy also received $3.0 million during the period from the defaulting purchaser under the

March 2020 contract for the sale of the Albany

Lifestyle Centre. The sale of the property to

an alternative purchaser was subsequently completed in May 2021.

Distributable Income

Net distributable income for the six months was $32.9 million, stable compared to $33.0

million in the prior comparable period.

AFFO

AFFO for the six months was $32.0 million which was up by $6.5 million on the $25.5 million

recorded in the prior comparable period. The prior comparable period included $7.2 million

in façade repairs at 7 Waterloo Quay. These repairs are now complete.

NTA

As a result of the interim internal assessment, Argosy’s NTA decreased to $1.72, from $1.74 at

31 March 2022.

Portfolio Activity

Portfolio Metrics, Rent Reviews and Leasing

As at 30 September, Argosy’s WALT was 5.5 years and portfolio occupancy was 98.9%, up

slightly from 98.7% at 31 March 2022.

For the six months to 30 September, Argosy completed 53 rent reviews achieving annualised

rental growth of 2.6%. These reviews were achieved on rents totalling $27.0 million. On rents

subject to review by sector, Argosy achieved annualised rental growth of 2.4% for Industrial

rent reviews, 2.8% for Office rent reviews and 3.5% for Large Format Retail rent reviews.

For the first six months of the 2023 financial year, 87% of rents reviewed were subject to fixed

reviews and 12% were market reviews.


.4

Argosy completed 19 leasing transactions across 21,046m

2

of NLA over the six months to 30

September. Lease transactions were made up of new leases (9), extensions (2) and

renewals (8). Notably, leasing enquiry remains almost exclusively focused on sustainable

green rated premises.

Key leasing highlights over the financial period include:

• Ministry for the Environment, 8 Willis Street, 2,225m

2

on a new 6 year lease;

• Alchemy Equipment Limited, 360 Lambton Quay, 115m

2

on a new 7 year lease;

• Macpac New Zealand Limited, 360 Lambton Quay, 389m

2

on a new 6 year lease;

• Bentley and Co Limited, 23 Customs Street, 204m

2

on a new 6 year lease;

• Harbour Cancer Centre, 105 Carlton Gore Road, 755m

2

on a new 12 year lease;

• Stantec New Zealand, 105 Carlton Gore Road, 1,606m

2

on a new 8 year lease;

• Briscoes Group Limited, Albany Mega Centre, 3,568m

2

renewed for 6 years;

• The Sports Authority (Rebel Sports), Albany Mega Centre, 2,083m

2

renewed for 6 years;

• Lighting Direct, Albany Mega Centre, 571m

2

renewed for 6 years; and

• Mainfreight, 32 Bell Ave, 8,139m

2

renewed for 12 months.

“We continue to see strong bottom-up fundamentals, including low vacancy and strong

rental growth in the Auckland Industrial market. The Auckland Industrial sector is forecast to

contribute solid returns over the next few years and, with half of our portfolio in this sector,

the portfolio remains well positioned to deliver attractive long term returns to shareholders.”

said Peter Mence.

Acquisitions

Argosy acquired an Industrial property at 100 Maui Street (Maui Street), located in Pukete,

Hamilton for $33.1 million early in the period. The Maui Street acquisition is consistent with

Argosy’s strategy and enhances its exposure to the attractive Industrial sector.

Prolife Foods are the tenant and a local food manufacturer, making them an essential

service and high-quality tenant. The property includes 8,100m

2

of vacant land for

development in the future.

Divestment of non Core Assets

During the period, Argosy settled the sale of 25 Nugent Street in Auckland, for $22.0 million.

Argosy regularly reviews its investment portfolio as part of its capital management planning

and will divest assets which no longer meet its investment criteria, redeploying those funds

into green Value Add opportunities.



.5

Developments

105 Carlton Gore Road, Newmarket

Argosy’s $35 million green redevelopment continues to track well with an expected

completion date in May 2023. The building is now targeting 6 Green Star certification

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

IRR of 7.2% and a yield on cost of 5.3%.

Activity in the Auckland leasing market has been encouraging with new lease

commitments secured for two tenancies making up approximately 50% of the building by

net lettable area. Harbour Cancer Centre (HCC) and Stantec New Zealand (Stantec) have

signed up to long term leases. HCC have committed to a 12 year lease for 755m

2

on the

ground floor. Stantec have committed to an 8 year lease for 1,606m

2

of space including all

Level 4 (1,086m

2

) and part Level 3 (~520m

2

).

We are in advanced exclusive negotiations with an international tenant for a further floor in

this building (~1,086m

2

).

Capital Management

As at 30 September, Argosy’s debt to total assets ratio, excluding capitalised borrowing

costs, was 32.5% compared to 31.1% at 31 March 2022. The increase in the ratio

1

reflects the

net impact of acquisitions/developments, and the small revaluation decline during the

period.

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

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

accommodate known, medium term funding requirements.

During the period Argosy increased and extended its syndicated bank facilities with ANZ

Bank of New Zealand Limited, Bank of New Zealand Limited, The Hongkong and Shanghai

Banking Corporation, Commonwealth Bank of Australia and Westpac New Zealand Limited.

Argosy has also announced that Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Limited (ICBC)

has joined the syndicate. The total amount of the bank facility has increased by $20 million

and is now $475 million. Argosy’s weighted average debt tenor, including bonds, was 3.7

years (3.5 years at 31 March 2022) with the nearest tranche of bank debt expiring in April

2025. Its weighted average interest rate was 5.00% (4.14% at 31 March 2022).




1

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


.6

Strategy and Governance

Chairman Jeff Morrison said “The world is experiencing economic and geopolitical volatility

which continues to impact global financial markets. Argosy is mindful of this and remains

committed to delivering on its investment strategy.

We will continue to drive growth into the attractive Auckland Industrial sector and build an

increasingly sustainable and green portfolio. Our key deliverables over the remainder of

FY23 include completing existing developments, commencing new green projects, leasing

new developments and residual portfolio vacancies and addressing key expiries.

Our big strategic goals coupled with our current year objectives, continue to support the

delivery of sustainable dividend growth over the long term.”

Dividends and Outlook

A second quarter dividend of 1.6625 cents per share has been declared for the September

quarter with 0.159398 cents per share imputation credits attached. Overseas investors will

receive an additional supplementary dividend of 0.072332 cents per share to offset non-

resident withholding tax. The record date for the dividend is 7 December 2022 and the

payment date is 21 December 2022. The Dividend Reinvestment Plan remains suspended for

now.

Jeff Morrison said “Subject to market conditions including interest rate increases, the

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

is reiterated.

Argosy has started the FY23 year off well, underpinned by its strong financial position and its

diversified portfolio of increasingly green and resilient assets delivering sustainable dividend

growth to shareholders.”

1,126,975879,350223,2002,229,525

Investment properties are classified as level 3 (inputs are unobservable for the asset or liability) under the fair value hierarchy on the

basis that adjustments must be made to observable data of similar properties to determine the fair value of an individual property.

The Group holds the freehold to all investment properties other than 39 Market Place, Viaduct Harbour, Auckland.

Valuation of investment properties

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

valuers. Independent valuations were not completed for investment properties as at 30 September 2022. The Board and Management

have reviewed the portfolio using available market data, considered other key property information and discussed the results with

independent valuation experts. The Board and Management have subsequently determined that a revaluation loss of $23.5 million is

appropriate at 30 September 2022.

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

exists over 39 Market Place, Viaduct Harbour, Auckland.

5. PROPERTY HELD FOR SALE

No investment property was subject to an unconditional sale and purchase agreement at 30 September 2022 (31 March 2022: 25 Nugent

Street, Grafton, Auckland ($22.0 million)).

Nominal value of interest rate swaps - fixed rate receiver325,000325,000

Average fixed interest rate - fixed rate payer3.59%3.71%

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

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

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

into Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy on the basis that the valuation techniques used to determine the values at period end date use

observable inputs.

The net liability for derivative financial instruments as at 30 September 2022 is $25.6 million (31 March 2022: $30.1 million). The mark-

to-market decrease in the liability for derivative financial instruments is a result of movements in the interest rate curve during the

interim period.

Independent Auditor’s Review Report


To The Shareholders of Argosy Property Limited



Conclusion We have reviewed the condensed consolidated interim financial statements

(‘interim financial statements’) of Argosy Property Limited (‘the Company’) and

its subsidiaries (‘the Group’) which comprise the condensed consolidated

interim statement of financial position as at 30 September 2022, and the

condensed consolidated interim statement of comprehensive income,

condensed consolidated interim statement of changes in equity and

condensed consolidated interim statement of cash flows for the period ended

on that date, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other

explanatory information on pages 4 to 16.


Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to

believe that the 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 period

ended on that date in accordance with NZ IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting

and IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.

Basis for Conclusion We conducted our review in accordance with NZ SRE 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 requirements.


Other than in our capacity as auditor and for the attendance and scrutineering

at the Annual Meeting, we have no relationship with or interests in Argosy

Property Limited or its subsidiaries. These services have not impaired our

independence as auditor of the Group.


Directors’ responsibilities

for the interim financial

statements

The directors are responsible on behalf of the Group for the preparation and

fair presentation of the interim financial statements in accordance with NZ IAS

34 Interim Financial Reporting and IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and for

such internal control as the directors 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 NZ IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting

and IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.

17

Interim Financial Statements 30 September 2022Argosy Property Limited


A review of the 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 consequently do not enable us to

obtain assurance that we might identify in an audit. Accordingly, we do not

express an audit opinion on the interim financial statements.


Restriction on use This report is made solely to the Group’s shareholders, as a body. Our review

has been undertaken so that we might state to the Group’s shareholders those

matters we are required to state to them in a 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 Group’s shareholders as a body, for our

engagement, for this report, or for the conclusions we have formed.

MARKET INSIGHTS

Strong demand continues to drive

additional supply.

Limited land supply in Auckland and

Wellington puts pressure on land values,

rentals and encourages non-traditional

locations.

Return of domestic manufacturing as a

result of the supply chain issues and

carbon footprint of distribution from

offshore.

Rental growth continues.

Vacancy remains very low, with limited

speculative supply.

Covid-19 pandemic and supply chain

constraints have seen average size

demand increase.

INDUSTRIAL

Flexible working environments continue.

Changes in the way space is used,

focusing on the environment, becoming

a reason to be in the office.

Increased focus from tenants on

sustainability/green as an appeal to

younger staff.

Impact of Covid-19 has resulted in a

significant increase in space available

for sub-lease in A grade and prime

buildings in the Auckland market.

Auckland rental growth impacted by

sublease vacancy and new supply.

Wellington continues to see solid

demand, with low vacancy for good

quality, well located space.

OFFICE

Many retailers’ systems have been shown

to be inadequate to cope with higher

online sales volumes.

Structural change in retail property will

show increased focus on showroom and

semi-industrial facilities.

Large format retail expected to be most

secure.

Retailers looking to consolidate to a

fewer number of locations.

Focus &
Outlook

FY23 remains challenging, but the business is well positioned
.30

Local and global economy continues to experience significant volatility driven by a range of factors including rising interest rates (tightening),

inflation headwinds and geopolitical risks (although easing).

Argosy is well positioned to manage its way through with a sound capital position and quality portfolio of diversified properties by type and

location. Our diversification remains a strength.

Key focus areas for FY23 are simple and remain unchanged from year end: keep delivering strong operational results, address key expiries,

lease up remaining vacancies, complete key green developments and commence new ones as planned.

Progress Master planning across key green Value Add developments at Mt Richmond and Neilson Street where we continue to receive strong

market interest.

Strong bottom up property fundamentals in key markets (Auckland Industrial and Wellington Office) continue to present attractivedynamics

of low supply, high demand and steady rental growth. Rising demand by the market for green buildings remains very encouragingand Argosy

is well placed to benefit.

Deliver on dividend guidance to shareholders.

We will stay focused on delivering on Strategy
