Result for the six months ended 30 September 2022

29 November 2022


• AFFO materially reduced due to 35 Graham Street vacancy

• 35 Graham Street exit confirmed with a deferred settlement

• Settlement of Eastgate occurred on 29 August 2022

• Munroe Lane progressing well, with practical completion expected in late April 2023

• Stoddard Road to be marketed for sale in the first quarter of the New Year

• Company’s debt facilities renewed until 31 March 2025


Asset Plus Limited (NZX: APL) today announced its interim financial results for the six month period

ended 30 September 2022, reporting total comprehensive income after tax of $0.29 million, down from

$2.52 million in the prior corresponding period.


Adjusted Funds From Operations

1

decreased to $0.01 million, down from $2.57 million primarily due

to the 100% vacancy at 35 Graham Street and higher funding costs.


Asset Plus Chairman, Bruce Cotterill, said “The last six months have been challenging, but the company

did secure the committed but deferred exits of both 35 Graham Street and the land at Kamo, and is

now looking to market Stoddard Road for sale in the near term. The deferred settlement at Eastgate

was also completed in late August 2022.”


He continued, “Leasing efforts continue at Munroe Lane and while we haven’t secured any additional

tenant commitments, construction is nearing completion. Prospective tenants have been able to view

the campus style floor plates and see the fundamental aspects of the property, its location and

sustainability credentials.”


Key points:


• Current portfolio occupancy declined to 42% due to the Eastgate sale.

• The WALE

2

is now 1.2 years, which has decreased from 2.21 years at 31 March 2022.

Anticipated to be 5.3 years once Auckland Council lease commences.

• Loan to value ratio decreased to 23% due to the Eastgate divestment offset against Munroe

Lane development drawdowns (25.7% at 31 March 2022).

• Net Tangible Assets (NTA) of 44.0 cents per share as at 30 September 2022

(44.0 cents as at 31

March 2022).

• No independent revaluations were commissioned as at 30 September 2022.

• Munroe Lane development target completion is now late April 2023.

• Active leasing campaign underway at Munroe Lane.


1

Adjusted Funds From Operations (AFFO) is non-GAAP financial information and is a common investor metric, 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. A reconciliation of the net profit after tax to AFFO is included in

the interim results presentation on slide 22 which has been independently reviewed by the auditors.

2

Weighted average lease expiry. This does not include the Auckland Council lease at Munroe Lane as the property is still under

construction.




Centuria NZ CEO Mark Francis commented, “Asset Plus has clear objectives to complete the

development of Munroe Lane and lease the balance of that property. Thereafter, and subject to the

state of the market, Asset Plus will review its ownership of the property and consider selling on

appropriate terms. This will put the Company in a zero debt position with significant cash reserves and

ideally positioned to consider its options.”


He continued, “The marketing of Stoddard Road for sale is a further initiative to potentially realise

assets at or close to NTA relative to the current share price which is close to a 50% discount to NTA.”


Divestments


Eastgate successfully settled and $40 million of debt was repaid on 29 August 2022. Shareholders

approved the sale of 35 Graham Street at a special meeting in June 2022 for $65 million with a deferred

settlement of December 2023 (with a 12-month extension right available to the purchaser).


The Kamo property has been unconditionally sold, with settlement on 30 November 2022.


Stoddard Road continues to be 100% occupied and has been a dependable asset during the Munroe

Lane development window, with a number of renewals and reviews completed in the period. The Board

now expects to market the property for sale through an open market campaign in the first quarter of

the New Year.


The rationale for divestment is driven by the ability to realise at, or near, NTA given the significant share

price discount of around 50% against the NTA, as well as potential earnings accretion given the forecast

funding costs are anticipated to be in excess of the carrying yield on the property of 6.29% (as at 30

September 2022). Reducing leverage in the current economic environment, with increasing interest

rates, is considered prudent.


Munroe Lane update


Munroe Lane is expected to be complete in late April 2023, at which point Auckland Council will take

occupation. Construction is now 80% complete and Level 3 has recently been handed over to the

tenant for commencement of their fit-out.


The balance of the leasing is proving challenging in the current climate. However, as the building nears

completion, the Company believes it can generate greater traction with prospective tenants given the

strong underlying benefits of the property, and its decentralised location in this key Northern Auckland

node.


Balance Sheet and Funding Update


Debt of $48.6 million was drawn as at 30 September 2022, which represents a LVR of 23% (March

2022 25.7%).


The loan facilities have been formally extended to 31 March 2025 post balance date. This is an

extension from the 30 September 2023 facility expiry. The key terms are set out in the results

presentation.



Net tangible assets (NTA) were 44 cents per share as at 30 September 2022, which is constant for the

half year. Independent revaluations were not completed during the period as the Board determined

there was no material movement since March 2022.


Dividend


The dividend has been ceased until sufficient operating earnings are restored. The Board will continue to

review the dividend quarterly.


Outlook


The Company has the following priorities for the near term:


• a successful completion of the development at Munroe Lane and leasing the balance of that

property; and

• marketing Stoddard Road for sale in the New Year, with any sale being subject to achieving an

acceptable outcome for shareholders.


Following completion of construction and leasing at Munroe Lane, the Company will consider its

ownership of the property subject to market conditions at that time.


Ultimately, the Board anticipates being in the unique position of the Company having zero debt and

significant cash reserves with which to consider a range of options.



Conference call


A conference call on the results will be held today at 9.30am NZDT, and can be accessed at:

Result summary

•Total profit of $0.29 million, down from $2.52 million in

September 2021 – driven by 35 Graham Street vacancy and

higher interest rate and debt profile.

•AFFO* of $0.01 million, down from $2.57 million in September

2021, also due to vacancy and funding. APL signaled a

breakeven position ahead of the Munroe Lane completion.

•Net rental incomeof $2.28 million, reduced from $4.40

million in the prior period due to vacancy at 35 Graham Street

and Eastgate divestment in August 2022.

•Higher interest costs as the investment facility was fully drawn

over the period prior to the Eastgate divestment.

•Tax loss due to breakeven operating earnings before tax

depreciation claim and deductible interest costs with respect to

the Munroe Lane development.

*Adjusted Funds From Operations (AFFO) is non-GAAP financial information and is a common investor

metric, 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

Key metrics

*Excludes Munroe Lane. When Munroe Lane reaches practical completion the portfolio WALE is expected to increase to 5.3 years (based on just

Auckland Council lease at Munroe Lane). Occupancy also increases to ~50% when the Auckland Council lease commences in late April 2023. On pro

forma basis the WALE will increase to 7.4 years and the occupancy will increase to ~70% excluding 35 Graham Street.

** Includes Kamo which settles on 30 November 2022.

•Net rental income reduced by $2.12 million. The

primary driver was the impact of 35 Graham Street now

being fully vacant.

•The impact of the Eastgate settlement also reduced net

rental income by $0.42m.

•Management fees were higher due to the impact of the

Munroe Lane development, offset against the Eastgate

divestment late in the 1H.

•Finance costs were higher due to both higher debt

levels ($0.53 million) and a higher interest rate

environment ($0.21 million) in this half.

•There is a small fair value movement in respect to 35

Graham Street as a higher discount rate of 7.5% was

adopted during the period. Kamo was also revalued

based on the confirmed exit price.

•There is a tax loss for the period and a deferred tax

asset recognised to the extent losses will be utilised

over the medium term.

•The Eastgate settlement occurred in August which was the

primary reason for the reduction in rental income at

Eastgate. While settlement was delayed until 29 August

2022 the rental apportionment was as if settlement

occurred on 12 August 2022.

•Stoddard Road net rental was broadly flat. There was no

material abatement booked this half and modest rental

growth.

•35 Graham Street was 100% vacant for the period. The prior

half included full rental for three months then 50% income

for the balance of the half. There is also the added impact of

operating costs which were $0.29 million for the half year.

across the half year while the prior half were only partially

drawn. The investment facility did however reduce by $40

million on the settlement of Eastgate in August 2022.

•Management fees were higher as the portfolio value increased

due to the Munroe Lane development and the Eastgate

settlement was late in the half (August 2022).

and a further deposit of 10% (taking total to 20%).

•As the settlement is deferred, the current net present value is

$60.4 million (based on the discounted forecast settlement

cash flows).

•The inability to secure prior lease commitments under either

development scenario, the lack of balance sheet capacity and

the inability to hold vacant for an extended period of time

were the key drivers for the divestment.

•The forecast margins associated with either development

scenario were no longer sufficient relative to the risk profile

1. Corporate Information

The interim condensed 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 an FMC

Reporting Entity under the Financial Markets Conduct Act

2013. The registered office is located at Level 2, Bayleys

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.

The interim financial statements for the six months ended

30 September 2022 and the comparative balances for

the six months ended 30 September 2021 are unaudited.

Comparative balances as at 31 March 2022 are audited.

2. Statement of Compliance and

Basis of Preparation

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements

for the six months ended 30 September 2022 have been

prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting

Practice in New Zealand (“NZ GAAP”), the requirements of

the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013 and the Main Board

listing rules of the New Zealand Stock Exchange. They also

comply with the New Zealand Equivalent to International

Accounting Standard NZ IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting.

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements

have been prepared under the assumption that the Group

operates on a going concern basis and are presented in

New Zealand dollars with all values rounded to the nearest

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

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements

do not include all the information and disclosures required

in the annual financial statements, and should be read in

conjunction with the Group’s annual consolidated financial

statements as at 31 March 2022.

(a) Basis of Preparation

The interim condensed consolidated financial

statements have been prepared on a historical cost

basis, except for investment properties which have

been measured at fair value.

Changes in accounting policies

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those

of the most recent annual financial statements for the year

ended 31 March 2022, except where 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. Certain comparative information has been reclassified

to conform with the current reporting period's presentation.

There are no new standards adopted in the current period.

(b) Basis of Consolidation

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements

incorporate the assets, liabilities, equity, income, expenses

and cash flows of the entities controlled by the Company

at the end of the reporting period. 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 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 interim condensed 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 subsidiaries are prepared

for the same reporting period as the parent company,

using consistent accounting policies. In preparing the

interim condensed 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 as at each reporting date:

3. Significant Accounting Estimates

and Judgements

The preparation of these interim condensed consolidated

financial statements requires the use of certain critical

accounting estimates.

It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the

process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. Although

the Group has internal control systems in place to ensure

that estimates can be reliably measured, actual amounts

may differ from those estimates. The areas involving a

higher degree of judgement or areas where assumptions are

significant to the Group include the following:

• Determination of Fair Value of Investment Properties

(Note 8)

• Classification of Investment Property Held for Sale

(Note 9)

Impact of COVID-19

The outbreak of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) was

declared by the World Health Organisation as a 'Global

Pandemic' on 11 March 2020. The ‘global pandemic’ has

caused heightened uncertainty over the economy and

financial markets.

In response to the pandemic, regions of New Zealand

entered periods of different alert levels with the

implementation of varying travel restrictions and a range

of quarantine and "social distancing" measures. On 2

November 2021 the COVID-19 Response (Management

Measures) Legislation Bill was passed which inserts a

clause into commercial leases requiring a "fair proportion"

of rent to be paid where a tenant has not been able to

access their premises to fully conduct their business due

to the COVID-19 restrictions.

The new lease term applies retrospectively from 18

August 2021 to leases that do not already contain a rental

abatement clause that applies in an epidemic. This is likely

to lead to greater abatement and relief provided to tenants

during periods when COVID-19 restrictions prohibit them

from accessing their premises. On 22 October 2021 the

Government announced a new traffic light system (the

COVID-19 Protection Framework) to manage Covid-19

once District Health Boards have achieved targeted

vaccination levels in their eligible population. This system

is expected to give businesses greater access to their

premises on an ongoing basis, though localised lockdowns

have not been ruled out.

Key impacts to key estimates and judgements used in these

unaudited interim financial statements:

• The latest independent valuations for the Company's

properties where commissioned as at 31 March 2022.

As at 31 March 2022, registered property valuers in

New Zealand considered it appropriate to attach less

weight to previous market evidence for comparison

purposes, to inform opinions of value. The current

response to COVID-19 and its ongoing impact means

that valuers are faced with an unprecedented set of

circumstances on which to base a judgement. Some

valuations were reported on the basis of 'material

valuation uncertainty' existing at the time they issued

their report. Consequently, less certainty (and a higher

degree of caution) should be attached to the valuations

than would normally be the case.

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 30 September 2022, the current liabilities of the Group

exceeded its current assets by $46,261,000.

The Board has considered all information available at the

date of signing the consolidated financial statements (refer

to subsequent event Note 16) 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.

7. 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.

(1) WIP (work in progress) relates to costs incurred in

relation to current or future development work which

were not included in the inputs to the most recent external

valuation calculation by the independent valuers. These

costs include design, consents and other direct costs

capitalised as development costs.

All investment properties were valued by an

independent valuer as at 31 March 2022. The

Directors have determined that there have been

no material changes which would effect the fair

value of investment properties as at reporting date

therefore no updated independent valuations have

been commissioned as at 30 September 2022. The

carrying value of investment properties therefore

represents the most recent independent valuation

plus any subsequent capital expenditure over the six

month period to 30 September 2022.

Investment properties that are being constructed or

developed for future use are classified as development

properties and are measured at the fair value of land plus

development costs, which together represent the fair value.

Development properties are carried at fair value when fair

value can be reliably determined, which is expected to be

upon or close to 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 period in which they arise. 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.

*Graham Street was transferred to held for sale on 3 June

2022 when the shareholders approved the sale, resulting in

to an Investment Facility. In the loan agreement the conversion date is defined as the date that the Agent (acting on the

instructions of the Majority Lenders) determines that Practical Completion has occurred.

Post balance date, the Group extended its loan facilities maturity date from 30 September 2023 to 31 March 2025. The facility

limit has also increased from $83.5 million to $85.0 million. The ICR covenant requirement has also been removed as a result

of the Group restricting $5.0m of cash as security. These facility amendments further support the Group’s assumption that it

operates on a going concern basis.

Independent Review Report
To the Shareholders of Asset Plus Limited

Report on the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

We reviewed the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Asset Plus Limited and its

subsidiary (“the Group”) on pages 1 to 13 which comprise the interim condensed consolidated statement of financial

position as at 30 September 2022, and the interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income, interim

condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity and interim condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for

the six months then ended, and notes to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements, including a summary

of significant accounting policies.

Director’s Responsibility for the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

The Directors are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these interim condensed consolidated financial

statements in accordance with NZ IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting issued in New Zealand by the New Zealand

Accounting Standards Board, and for such internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the

preparation and fair presentation of interim condensed consolidated financial statements that are free from material

misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Our Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the interim condensed consolidated financial statements. We conducted

our review in accordance NZ SRE 2410, Review of Historical Financial Statements Performed by the Independent Auditor

of the Entity. NZ SRE 2410 requires us to conclude whether anything has come to our attention that causes us to believe

that the interim condensed consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, are not prepared in all material respects

in accordance with the External Reporting Boards (XRB). As the auditor of Asset Plus Limited NZ SRE 2410 requires that

we comply with the ethical requirements relevant to the audit of the annual condensed consolidated financial statements.

A review of interim condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 is a limited assurance

engagement. The auditor performs procedures, primarily consisting of making enquiries of management and others

within the entity, as appropriate and applying analytical procedures, and evaluates the evidence obtained.

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). Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion on these

interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

Other than in our capacity as auditor we have no relationship with, or interests in, the Group.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that these interim condensed

consolidated financial statements on pages 1 to 13 do not present fairly, in all material respects, the interim condensed

consolidated financial position of Asset Plus Limited as at 30 September 2022, and its interim condensed consolidated

financial performance and interim condensed consolidated cash flows for the six months then ended, in accordance with

NZ IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting issued in New Zealand by the New Zealand Accounting Standards Board.

Dear Shareholder,



In an increasingly challenging environment, Asset Plus has continued to capitalise on opportunities for

the benefit of shareholders, while maintaining as a near term focus, the successful delivery of the

development at 6-8 Munroe Lane, Albany.


After ongoing delays brought about by COVID-19, it is pleasing to be able to report that the development

at Munroe Lane recently reached a significant milestone with the building now fully weathertight and

the two tower cranes dismantled. With completion now expected in the second quarter of the 2023

calendar year, this property will add to the portfolio a brand new, sustainable, well located office building

with a blue-chip tenant covenant across two thirds of the property.


As we move on from the disruption of the last three years, the economic impacts left in the wake of the

pandemic are difficult to overstate. The most immediate of those is clearly the persistent inflation which

is currently having a profound impact on the New Zealand economy.


As the Reserve Bank of New Zealand works within its mandate to bring inflation under control with

significant tightening of monetary policy, the consequences are becoming ever more material. We have

spoken previously about the need for prudent capital management, and this remains the company’s

overarching focus.


Following recent successful divestments from the portfolio including Eastgate, 35 Graham Street and

Kamo, the Stoddard Road property will be marketed for sale in the first quarter of the New Year.


Realising value from this property at or close to its carrying value while further reducing the company’s

leverage would be a positive outcome in the current economic climate, particularly given the forecast

cost of debt servicing versus the yield on the property.


Stoddard Road has provided an essential revenue stream through the development window of Munroe

Lane as rental income has reduced due to the divestment of Eastgate and the vacancy at 35 Graham

Street since the start of 2022.


However, with the Auckland Council lease over approximately 63% of the lettable area at Munroe Lane

due to commence in the coming months, the Board feels now is an appropriate time to explore a potential

sale of Stoddard Road which would be marginally accretive to the company’s financial performance in a

significantly higher interest rate environment.


Eastgate settled at the end of August after an unforeseen title issue arose. That issue was dealt with

effectively by management, under trying circumstances and with difficult time pressures, and the

settlement occurred within the necessary timeframes. The Board would like to thank the key

management personnel who made a substantial contribution to ensuring a satisfactory outcome on this

matter.


NTA has remained constant throughout the period since 31 March 2022 at 44.0 cents, with occupancy

and WALE across the portfolio reducing on the back of the divestment of Eastgate and vacancy at 35
Graham Street.

The result for the interim period ended 30 September 2022 was materially reduced due to the vacancy

at 35 Graham Street and the associated loss of rental income, meaning AFFO

1

was breakeven for the

period, as had been previously signalled when the dividend was suspended back in March 2022.

Despite a challenging funding environment, the company has successfully secured an extension to the

bank facilities through to 31 March 2025, doing so ahead of the current expiry in September 2023. Key

features of the new arrangement include an increase in the facility limit to $85 million, deletion of the

ICR covenant with a $5 million lockbox facility in its place. That lockbox can reduce as earnings, driven

by future leasing at Munroe Lane, increase.

The company’s key focus remains the successful completion of the Munroe Lane development as well as

leasing the residual space within that development. We remain confident of the strong fundamental

aspects of that development and still maintain a positive view that the space will attract tenants despite

the wider economic headwinds.

Further, following completion of construction and leasing at Munroe Lane, the company will review its

ownership of that property, subject to market conditions at the time.

Ultimately, the Board anticipates being in the unique position of the Company having zero debt and

significant cash reserves. This would represent a strong balance sheet position, with a number of

options then available to the company.

Thank you as always for your continued support.

Regards,

Bruce Cotterill

Chairman
