Challenges &
INTRODUCTION
Responding to today’s challenges
As an astute and responsive property
company, we’ve acted decisively to
manage our assets and balance sheet
as the economic environment has
shifted over the last year. Discipline is
a hallmark of our approach. Taking our
cues from unfolding market dynamics,
we’ve exercised constraint where it
made sense to do so, and pursued
opportunities where the timing was right.
Our operating performance reinforces
our credibility. As does our disciplined
use of capital, our focus on strict
management and our focus on driving
returns for our shareholders.

Opportunities
Focused on tomorrow’s opportunities
At the same time, we remain firmly
engaged with our strategy and our
commitment to a pragmatic and well-
paced roll-out of key initiatives such as
build-to-rent and the development at
Drury. The robustness of our approach
to our key assets reflects our sure and
measured approach to what’s ahead.
Growing value and maximising potential
remain paramount.
At Kiwi Property we have never been
afraid to invest in transformative
opportunities. In fact, we pride ourselves
on planning for tomorrow – without losing
sight of where things are at, and what’s
needed, right now.

Mark Ford, Chair
Letter from the Chair
Kiwi Property Annual Report 20236
Dear Shareholders,
Welcome to the Kiwi Property annual report
for the year ended 31 March 2023 (FY23).
This is my final Chair letter before I retire from
the Board at the upcoming Annual Meeting
of Shareholders. My time as a director of Kiwi
Property has passed quickly, and as I look back
on my tenure, I am proud of many of the things
we have achieved together. As always though,
there is more to do.
The last few years have been challenging -
not just for our business but for the property
sector as a whole - as we have contended with
the impact of COVID-19 and the economic
volatility that has followed. The coming financial
year has the potential to be similarly disrupted,
fuelled by high inflation and living costs. We
believe though, that our strategy of creating
mixed-use communities at key growth nodes
will help the business navigate the current
headwinds and promote earnings growth in
the period that follows.
In FY23, we took several steps to enhance the
resilience and performance of the business.
These moves have been instrumental in helping
the company deliver another good operational
result. Sales, rental income, operating profit, and
adjusted funds from operations were all strong,
underlining the quality of our portfolio and the
strategic and financial value delivered by mixed-
use. Clive, our Chief Executive Officer, will provide
an overview of our key metrics in his report, which
begins on page 14.
Unfortunately, despite this strong operational
performance, rising capitalisation rates have
negatively impacted the value of our property
portfolio, which declined by 4.2% or $139.3 million
in the second half of FY23¹ and contributed
to a subsequent full-year net loss after tax of
$227.7 million. These numbers are disappointing
however they are not unexpected given the stage
of the property cycle and current economic
headwinds. By continuing to drive sales, grow
rents and diversify our income streams, we will
help mitigate further devaluations.
Managing the pace of development
Kiwi Property has a large mixed-use landholding
of more than 125 hectares across Sylvia Park,
LynnMall, The Base and Drury. The scale and
zoning of these assets give us the flexibility to
carefully manage the pace of our development
programme, making strategic choices about
what and when to build based on demand,
market fundamentals and the cost of funding.
That flexibility is essential in the current
climate, where interest and capitalisation rates
are impacting property values and material
prices are squeezing margins. We are adopting
a disciplined and conservative approach,
limiting development to specific strategic
opportunities, while holding off on others
until the market stabilises.
A clear example of this pragmatism in action
is 3 Te Kehu Way. The distinctive new six-level
office development at Sylvia Park was completed
in March 2023, marking an important milestone
in the precinct’s strategic evolution. Designed to
cater to the requirements of both medical and
office tenants, the building enables us to target
new customer segments and respond to interest
from the wide range of organisations keen to
establish a presence at Sylvia Park’s growing
business hub.
3 Te Kehu Way offers excellent amenities,
transport connectivity, sustainability
performance and unparalleled access to
New Zealand’s favourite shopping centre².
Geneva Finance, CLC Consulting and the
government agency, Rau Paenga will be
among those joining the building’s previously
announced tenants of Tamaki Health,
Horizon Radiology, and Regus.
Performing while transforming
While we’re focused on delivering for our
shareholders today, we’re also looking over the
horizon at the new and emerging opportunities
that will unlock value and fuel future growth.
Much of Kiwi Property’s success has been built
on similar foresight and a long-term approach.
It took some imagination, for example, to look at
a run-down block of storage sheds at Sylvia Park
and envisage that it could become a world-class
mixed-use community. Nonetheless, that belief
saw us acquire the initial 24-hectare site in 1995.
Today, the precinct is worth over $1.5 billion,
attracts over 14.5 million customer visits a year
and generated $889 million in sales in FY23.
Similarly, the parcel of paddocks we bought
at Drury almost a decade ago is evolving into
a new city centre. More than 3,000 homes, 117,000
square metres of retail space and 58,000 square
metres of office space are expected to be built
across Drury East in the future.
Importantly, we continue to look ahead, analysing
demographic, economic and social trends and
anticipating how these will shape future demand
In FY23, we took several steps
to enhance the resilience and
performance of the business.
These moves have been
instrumental in helping the
company deliver another good
operational performance.
1. Excluding the gross up of lease liabilities required by NZ IFRS 16.
2. “The Heart of Kiwi Property 2022” NielsenI
Kiwi Property Annual Report 20237
for retail, commercial and residential space. Our
build-to-rent (BTR) and Drury developments are
prime examples of us responding proactively
to new opportunities in the market. Given
the forecast increase in demand for rental
accommodation and the expected growth in the
size of the Drury community, we believe that by
acting quickly on these projects, we will create
value for our shareholders over time.
Change is the only constant
Since joining the Board in 2011, change has been
the only constant. Within my first few years as
Chair, we proceeded with both the internalisation
and the corporatisation of Kiwi Property, two
initiatives I’m particularly proud of and which
created benefit for shareholders. In a period of
rapid growth in the following years, we completed
ASB North Wharf, purchased Sylvia Park Lifestyle
and entered into 50% joint ventures with Tainui
Group Holdings at The Base and Centre Place.
Since then, the rate of change has been similarly
quick and while COVID delayed several critical
initiatives over the past few years, in the
background, the business’ transition into the
creator of mixed-use communities at strategic
growth nodes has gained momentum. By
reshaping our portfolio, we will help create a more
resilient and higher-performing company that
generates better returns for our shareholders.
In parallel, we have become a more diversified
business. At Sylvia Park, for example, we now
have a mix of retail and commercial precincts
with residential set to follow and ample scope
to move into other sectors, such as medical,
over time. Not only does this approach allow
us to optimise the use and value of our land,
it also helps create a critical mass of customers
and workers for the businesses on-site. More
customers generate more sales and support the
case for higher rents and improved valuations.
Passing the baton
At our upcoming Annual Meeting of Shareholders
on 28 June, I will pass the baton as Kiwi Property
Chair to Simon Shakesheff. He will be familiar to
many of our shareholders, having been a director
of the company since 2019. Simon has all the
experience, knowledge and intellect you could
wish for, and I have no doubt he will make a
major positive impact.
I would also like to thank Mark Powell for his
significant contribution as a director over the
past five years, including his integral role as the
founding Chair of our Environmental, Social and
Governance (ESG) committee.
We are fortunate to have two excellent new
directors, Carlie Eve and Peter Alexander,
joining the Kiwi Property Board on 23 May 2023.
Their expertise in property development and
investment, funds management, capital markets,
and community creation will be invaluable to the
company going forward.
Kiwi Property Annual Report 20238
Dividend and outlook
The company’s share price has unfortunately
traded beneath expectations in FY23. This
is partly due to market concerns about the
decrease in commercial property values being
felt across our sector, as well as the risk of a
potential future recession. While these factors
are beyond our control, we are focused on those
that are, including intensively operating our
properties and strictly managing our gearing,
and balance sheet. Although asset sales and
rising interest rate costs have the potential to
reduce earnings in the short term, we are taking
steps to address this impact and are committed
to maintaining our dividend.
To this end, Kiwi Property will pay a fourth-
quarter cash dividend of 1.425 cents per share,
taking the full-year FY23 dividend to 5.70 cents
per share.³ The Dividend Reinvestment Plan will
also be reinstated for the fourth quarter dividend.
This initiative will contribute to the company’s
multi-faceted capital management programme,
while enabling shareholders to grow their Kiwi
Property holdings at a 2% discount⁴ and without
transaction costs.
I am also pleased to confirm dividend guidance
of 5.70 cents per share for the 2024 financial
year, which we expect to be within our target
payout range of 90-100% of adjusted funds
from operations. This figure provides an attractive
dividend yield of 9.5% (based on Kiwi Property’s
closing share price on 19 May 2023) and allows
the company to retain earnings to help fund
future growth.
We are clear on our way
forward and confident
of our ability to turn
our strategy into reality.
By doing so, we will drive
the company’s operational
results, promote growth
in our share price and
help create greater
recognition within the
market of Kiwi Property’s
underlying value.
Kiwi Property is operating in a challenging market
and it’s likely that we will continue to experience
economic headwinds in FY24. Nonetheless, we
are clear on our way forward and confident of
our ability to turn our strategy into reality. By
doing so, we will drive the company’s operational
results, promote growth in our share price and
help create greater recognition within the market
of Kiwi Property’s underlying value.
I want to express my gratitude and appreciation
to our shareholders, customers, and employees.
Your support and dedication have been
instrumental in our success, and I look forward
to watching Kiwi Property’s continued progress
in the years to come. Thank you for the privilege
of serving as your Chair.

Kiwi Property Annual Report 20239
Kiwi Property is an impressive business with
a robust strategy and some of the country’s
leading real estate assets. It is an honour to be
stepping into the Chair role Mark Ford has held so
effectively for over a decade. I have an ambitious
vision for the company, including a focus on
driving improved returns for shareholders and
positively impacting the communities where
we operate.
I intend to bring a mix of continuity and
commitment to the job. I have been a director
on the Board since 2019 and know the business,
our strengths, and the challenges we must
overcome. Kiwi Property is at a pivotal moment
in its transformation from a retail and office
landlord into a creator of connected mixed-use
communities. We must push on to realise the
benefits of this evolution while keeping sight of
the need to deliver for our investors as we do.
As you will read in this report, Kiwi Property
delivered a good operational performance in
FY23. The business effectively managed its
assets, made progress on its developments at
Sylvia Park and Drury, and completed several
strategic asset sales. We now have mixed-use
assets at three of Auckland’s 12 metropolitan
centres, placing us in a position to benefit
from the forecast growth of these locations
over future decades.
In the current market, operational delivery and
development potential alone are not enough,
however. Effectively managing our capital, gearing
and funding pipeline are all vital for the company
to be successful over the long term. It is clear we
are good at owning, developing and intensifying
mixed-use assets. My priority is to ensure we
translate our proven capabilities into better
returns for our shareholders.
As a good corporate citizen, Kiwi Property has
a responsibility to contribute to New Zealand’s
future. We have committed to a comprehensive
Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG)
strategy and made excellent progress on this
journey. We must keep stretching ourselves
to maintain this momentum. I do not believe
that we must sacrifice performance to achieve
our purpose. Instead, we will strive for an
effective balance between people, profit
and the planet as we work towards becoming
the country’s leading creator and curator of
mixed-use communities.
I look forward to meeting many of you at the
upcoming Annual Meeting of Shareholders.
Thank you for your support of Kiwi Property.

Clive Mackenzie, Chief Executive Officer
Chief Executive Officer’s report
Kiwi Property Annual Report 202314
Kia ora,
Kiwi Property built on its favourable operating
performance from the first six months of FY23,
with a similarly robust result in the second half
of the year, while also taking important steps on
our journey to becoming New Zealand’s leading
creator and curator of mixed-use communities.
Although COVID-19’s impact on New Zealand
has eased in the wake of the pandemic, the
country has experienced sharp increases in
inflation and interest rates, and a subsequent
economic slowdown.
In response, we acted decisively to strengthen
our business and balance sheet in FY23, including
recycling capital, actively managing gearing
and controlling the pace of our development
programme. Adopting this disciplined approach
will put the business in the best position to deal
with the current period of economic uncertainty.
Importantly, these measures aren’t just about
making Kiwi Property more resilient in the short
term. By taking the steps today, we will ensure
the company is in a stronger position to take
advantage of the opportunities that will emerge
as the market stabilises, unlocking value for
our shareholders.
Record-setting sales performance
Kiwi Property’s operating performance featured
several highlights in FY23, however one of
the most impressive was the record sales
performance of our mixed-use property portfolio.
Shoppers spent more than $1.7 billion at Sylvia
Park, LynnMall, and The Base, up 28.5% on last
year and 34.8% on FY19. Sylvia Park’s performance
was particularly strong with sales of $889 million
across the precinct.
This trading result demonstrates the resilience
of our mixed-use assets, particularly given the
impact of rising living costs on consumers’
wallets. Over recent years we’ve seen a
divergence in the retail property sector, with
the best centres going from strength to strength,
and second-tier centres, in contrast, coming
under increasing pressure from e-commerce
and store consolidation. We have worked hard
to ensure our assets are well placed to benefit
from this flight to quality, bringing an exciting
range of first-to-New Zealand retailers to
market and delivering a new standard of dining,
hospitality and entertainment options.
Kiwi Property’s net rental income continued
its recent upward trajectory, rising 13.9% to
$203.7 million in FY23, where we benefited from
the final release of COVID-19 rental abatement
accruals. Operating profit before tax increased
11.3% to $129.6 million, while adjusted funds from
operations rose 16.1% to $116.5 million.
Our property portfolio was almost entirely leased
on 31 March 2023, with occupancy sitting at
99.3%. Rental growth was similarly robust, with
rent reviews and new leasing up 5.3% and 4.4%
respectively, despite the challenging economic
environment. Together, these figures reinforce
the strength of tenant demand for space in
Kiwi Property’s mixed-use and office assets,
and with our speciality gross occupancy cost
ratio (a key measure of tenancy affordability)
remaining at a conservative 12.9%, there is
scope for the company to drive further rental
growth in the future.
Strengthening the balance sheet
Strict capital management is a cornerstone of
our business. This commitment has become
particularly important considering the rapid
rise of interest rates since mid-2021. In FY23,
we have undertaken several important initiatives
to fortify our balance sheet, increase our hedging
and ensure suitable funding for our development
programme. Managing our gearing position will be
an ongoing focus as we respond to the current
economic headwinds and their negative impact
on commercial property values.
In addition to the previously reported sales
of Northlands Shopping Centre and 44 The
Terrace, on 1 May 2023 we added to this list
the disposal of Westgate Lifestyle Shopping
Centre for $85.7 million. The sale of our non-
core properties and recycling of proceeds is a
central pillar of our funding strategy. Not only
does this provide our lowest cost of capital,
Shoppers spent a record
$1.7 billion at Sylvia Park,
LynnMall, and The Base in
FY23, up 28.5% on the year
before and 34.8% on FY19,
highlighting the strength
and resilience of our
mixed-use assets.
$889.4m

Kiwi Property Annual Report 202315
but it also results in a higher quality and more
resilient asset portfolio. Following the Westgate
Lifestyle transaction, our gearing ratio now sits
at 33.3% on a pro-forma basis.
Capital recycling is just one aspect of our
multi-faceted funding and capital management
strategy. In March, we overcame a challenging
time in the debt markets to complete a
successful $125 million Green Bond issue.
The heavily oversubscribed offer enjoyed
particularly firm support from retail investors
nationwide, highlighting the breadth and depth
of support for Kiwi Property, our mixed-use
strategy, and strong sustainability credentials.
Right time, right priorities
At Sylvia Park, the sale of 3.2 hectares of land to
IKEA is now unconditional, marking an essential
step towards our goal of welcoming the exciting
retailer to the precinct. In parallel, work is
ongoing at Sylvia Park’s 295-apartment BTR
complex, with the project’s towers now up to
nine floors high. The development is on track
for completion in early FY25, when we expect
the effects of rising net migration and falling
housing consents to create growth in demand
for rental accommodation. Our BTR assets will
be launched and marketed under the newly
created ‘Resido’ brand; a fresh and dynamic
proposition set to become synonymous
with Kiwi Property’s residential offering. For
more about the progress on Resido and the
Sylvia Park BTR development, please go to
page 24.
The BTR sector is expanding rapidly in markets
such as Australia, where high-quality BTR
apartments are attracting differentials of
up to 20% compared to traditional rental
accommodation. We believe similar trends
could flow to the New Zealand market,
positioning the asset class to deliver robust
returns for Kiwi Property over time.
Elsewhere, we are making major strides at
Drury, where stage one earthworks are underway,
and civil works are due to follow shortly after.
Auckland Council has designated our 53-hectare
site as the location of a new metropolitan
centre, placing it at the heart of the region’s
social and economic development. We intend
for Drury to be a Green Star Community that
sets a high standard for sustainability and urban
placemaking. This opportunity will be staged
over the next two decades. Turn to page 26 for
more information.
We are focused on carefully managing the
funding requirements of the Drury development
and have a range of options available, including
the introduction of capital partners or the sell-
down of one or more of the site’s 13 residential
super-lots and/or large format retail sites.
Enhancing the wellbeing of
our communities
The recent Auckland floods and Cyclone
Gabrielle provided a sobering reminder of the
effects of climate change. Although none of our
properties were damaged by these storms, we
are taking proactive steps to safeguard against
future extreme weather events. Kiwi Property
has well-established climate risk assessment
and management protocols in place, with a focus
on ensuring asset resilience over the long term.
More broadly, we recognise that as one of the
country’s largest property companies, we can
lead on environmental sustainability by actively
reducing our emissions profile and working
with our partners to decrease water, waste,
and energy use.
We are committed to being net carbon negative
in our operations by 2030 and are proud to have
been awarded a score of 81 (out of 100) by the
Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark
(GRESB) for our sustainability efforts last year.
100% of our core office assets have a NABERSNZ
rating of 4 stars or above, while our first 6 star
Green Star targeted building - 3 Te Kehu Way
– is now complete. We recognise that
Kiwi Property Annual Report 202316
sustainability is a core aspect of thriving
mixed-use communities and are committed
to ensuring that the places we create have
a positive environmental and social impact.
In FY23, we also made meaningful progress in our
efforts to enhance the wellbeing of people in and
around our communities, becoming an official
supporter of the Mental Health Foundation and
helping to reach tens of thousands of people
through initiatives such as Pink Shirt Day and the
Better Together Social Connection Campaign.

social and governance (ESG) highlights is
available on page 30 of this report, or if you
are interested in further details, please see our
standalone FY23 Sustainability Report, available

corporate/sustainability/.
FY24 outlook
New Zealand’s short-term economic trajectory is
difficult to predict however as the Chair noted, it
is reasonable to expect that elevated inflation and
interest rates will continue to be a factor in FY24.
During this period of volatility and disruption, we
will adopt a highly disciplined approach, driving
the operation of our business forward, strictly
managing our balance sheet, and being pragmatic
in our development programme.
Importantly, our commitment to delivery
remains as strong as ever – if not more so.
We are focused on growing rents, growing
our assets and growing returns for shareholders.
Our goal is to perform today while simultaneously
transforming Kiwi Property into a faster, more
resilient and ultimately more profitable business
for the years ahead.
Thank you for your continued support as we
continue our strategic evolution. We look forward
to rewarding your trust in FY24 and beyond.

Creating value through mixed-use
Through Kiwi Property’s mixed-use strategy, we
are transforming our business to unlock greater
shareholder value. It is all about diversifying our
income streams across a broader range of assets,
which will help accelerate our earnings growth
with lower risk, over time.
Ours is a multi-year journey as we transform our
$3.2 billion asset base from one weighted heavily
to retail, into a focused and future-fit portfolio,
with world-leading mixed-use communities at
its core. We’re not just looking to the horizon but
taking a disciplined and pragmatic approach to
the company’s evolution, including an unwavering
focus on delivering for our shareholders today
and tomorrow.
Mixed-use brings together retail, office and
residential on a single integrated site, attracting
more people to stay longer and potentially spend
more while they do. We call this the mixed-use
halo. Research conducted for Kiwi Property
calculated that the intensification of Sylvia Park
could drive a significant increase in value through
greater sales, higher rents and increased gross
occupancy costs.
Mixed-use also offers significant flexibility to
respond to shifting market dynamics, including
changing demographics and lifestyle trends.
This optionality is already evident across our
portfolio, including our construction of New
Zealand’s first major BTR development, our
expansion into medical office at 3 Te Kehu Way
and our plans to create a modern Green Star
Community at Drury - one of Auckland’s key
urban growth hubs.
Controlling the pace of change
The progress on our mixed-use journey has
been substantial, anchored in a large strategic
landholding that spans around 125 hectares
and offers extensive future optionality. We have
control over aspects ranging from the timing of
projects to the way they are funded, the tenant
mix and their sustainability credentials. This
certainty enables us to proactively manage costs,
maintain high occupancy rates and ensure stable
incomes. And by adopting a strong focus on
master planning, we can ensure that each new
building adds value to those around it, creating
more value and a better experience for our
tenants, their customers and employees and
the communities we serve.
Our strategy has longevity – primarily due to our
land holdings – but also our disciplined approach
to capital management and our focus on ensuring
new developments occur when they create the
most value.
We have a development pipeline that has the
potential to translate into billions of dollars of
additional property assets over the next 10 to
15 years, most of it weighted toward residential
and commercial. Importantly though, with only
Sylvia Park BTR and Drury Stage One earthworks
underway, we have limited exposure to the
pressures currently facing the construction
sector. We have the land, the time, the skills
and the experience to progress our development
pipeline when the time is right – but we are
in no rush. Taking a responsible and pragmatic
approach will enable us to maintain a sound
balance sheet, deliver sustained dividend growth
and get the best outcome for our shareholders
from every project.

Key inputs into our activities are financial
capital, properties, people and capabilities,
partnerships, and nature. Through the
execution of our business strategy, we create
value for our stakeholders: people, investors,
tenant partners and suppliers, customers,
communities, and the environment.

Kiwi Property Annual Report 202323
Flexibility is one of the strengths of Kiwi
Property’s mixed-use strategy. As a diversified
developer and asset manager, we’re not
bound to any specific asset class but instead
have the freedom to identify and develop
new properties based on market thematics,
emerging trends, forecast demand and the
best returns for shareholders.
Build-to-rent (BTR) is a case in point. We’re
leading from the front with the creation of
New Zealand’s first major BTR development
at Sylvia Park: a 295-apartment complex due
for completion in early FY25. The project is
progressing at pace, with the superstructure
of the residential towers now up to nine levels
high. We are targeting a property-level internal
rate of return of 8% for Sylvia Park BTR.
Our approach to BTR isn’t limited to developing
outstanding residential buildings on our sites.
Instead, we’re creating an operating platform that
leverages our proven asset management, leasing
and digital capabilities that could potentially be
licensed to third parties. This model has proven
highly successful offshore and would enable us
to target the growing pool of investors seeking
local BTR partners with established operational
infrastructure and the ability to scale.
BTR has the potential to drive a significant
shift in the traditional rental model, benefitting
residents and investors. We’re proud to be a
first mover in the emerging asset class, but
our priority isn’t to be at the leading edge –
it’s to unlock the significant commercial benefit
we believe it will deliver while simultaneously
mitigating risk.
Poised for growth
BTR is undergoing rapid expansion in several
overseas markets, including Australia, where
despite the asset class being relatively new,
23,000 BTR apartments are now completed,
under construction, or in planning, with
a combined value of around $16.9 billion.
If New Zealand followed a similar trend,
BTR has the potential to grow quickly in this
country. Sylvia Park alone has capacity for
around 1,200 BTR apartments, while LynnMall
could accommodate a further 600.
That’s a significant opportunity however
importantly, we’ll only move forward with new
BTR projects when and where it makes good
financial sense to do so. That means ensuring
the cost of capital, tenant demand, and return
metrics are where they need to be before
progressing any new initiative. We believe
strongly in the future of BTR, but as with most
things in life, timing is critical.
Demand for quality rental accommodation is
expected to increase markedly over the coming
years, as mounting living costs put home
ownership out of reach for many Kiwis. The
average New Zealand home now costs 11 times
the average household income, and despite a
recent cooling of the market, the proportion of
Aucklanders living in rental accommodation is
expected to jump from 50% to 60% by 2043.

Kiwi Property Annual Report 202324
A new way of living
BTR isn’t just for those who can’t afford their
own home. For many, it will be a lifestyle choice,
enabling residents to access outstanding
services, facilities and be part of a connected
community. It’s these tenants, in particular,
who we think will be attracted by our new
development at Sylvia Park, which will be the
first offering launched under Kiwi Property’s
dynamic new BTR brand, Resido.
In Resido, we are creating a unique rental
experience based on high-quality, professionally
designed, built and managed apartments,
coupled with outstanding amenities such as
gyms, media rooms, co-working spaces, and
rooftop barbeque and entertainment areas.
Resido apartments will be located within
attractive mixed-use precincts that are well
connected to schools, jobs and public transport,
delivering superior convenience and accessibility.
One of the key differentiators of the new
Resido offering will be a focus on using digital
and technology to deliver a more seamless
experience for Kiwi renters. An intuitive mobile
app will allow residents to renew leasing
contracts, pay rent, file maintenance requests,
book work or leisure amenities or respond to
community event invitations. This new approach
to resident interaction and service is just one way
Resido will stand apart from other rental options
and help establish Kiwi Property as a leader in
BTR in New Zealand.
Resido
Resido speaks to a new style of renting – one
where the residents come first. We’re creating
spaces that people will call home, with all the
peace of mind and freedom that comes with
ownership – but without the barriers and
burdens of a mortgage.
It’s a lifestyle choice that doesn’t mean a
lack of choice. Resido is about personalising
your place and space, while knowing that
important concerns like maintenance, security,
community and amenities are all taken care
of by professionals. There’s even the potential
option to relocate to another Resido property
- if work or circumstances make a change of
location more convenient.
Resido resets the renting experience in a way that
meets residents’ needs at all ages and stages in
life, with a high-quality mixed-use community
right on the doorstep.

BTR APARTMENTS DUE TO OPEN
AT SYLVIA PARK IN EARLY FY25
Kiwi Property Annual Report 202325
The creation of one of the country’s first
major Green Star Communities is underway
at Drury, south of Auckland, with Stage one
earthworks due for completion at the end of
2023 and the civil works required for essential
infrastructure, above and below ground,
following soon after.
These efforts will create the blank canvas for
a new metropolitan centre, designed and built
to meet the demanding standards of liveability,
economic prosperity, environmental performance
and innovation that a Green Star Communities
rating requires.
Unlocking the opportunity to build a connected
community from the ground up has taken
time – and foresight. The acquisition of our
site began eight years ago when the rural
farmland was purchased by Kiwi Property.
It’s also taken perseverance as we navigated
a consenting process that took more than four
years, including re-zoning the land under the
Resource Management Act 1991 and lodgement
of a Fast-track application under the COVID-19
Recovery Act 2020.
Creating a connected
community at Drury
60,000
PEOPLE EXPECTED TO CALL
THE DRURY REGION HOME
In 2022, our Drury landholding was successfully
re-zoned as a metropolitan town centre under
the Auckland Unitary Plan, one of just 12 across
the greater region, including Sylvia Park and
New Lynn. The Drury-Opaheke region is expected
to ultimately include 22,000 new homes and
a population of 60,000 people, making it
around the same size as Napier.
The central Government has already committed
$2.8 billion to fund infrastructure in the area,
including extending State Highway 1 from
Papakura to Drury and enhancing the rail
corridor. As a result of the re-zoning and
following the planned earth and civil works
to be undertaken in stage one, the gross
developed value of that site is expected
to increase to over $200 million, with further
value to be unlocked in stage two.
Kiwi Property Annual Report 202326
Kiwi at the heart
Our ambition is for Kiwi Property’s 53-hectare
land holding to become the region’s geographical,
social and economic heart. We have the
privilege to shape the character, quality and
design of the new urban centre, which will stand
for decades. Our vision is to create a thriving
transit-oriented mixed-use community that
features a compelling retail, residential and
office offering, as well as approximately 10
hectares of new parks, cycleways, and walking
paths. Our commitment to creating a Green Star
Community at Drury underscores how seriously
we take this responsibility.
With its convenient transport links and exciting
future, Drury is an attractive proposition, even
at this early development phase. Fisher & Paykel
Healthcare, one of New Zealand’s leading
companies, has acquired a 105-hectare site
to create a campus and innovation precinct
at nearby Karaka. This significant move
highlights Drury’s potential to become
a thriving commercial hub and potentially
even an emerging centre for research and
development south of Auckland.
Sustainability built-in
Green Star Communities are intended to be
more resilient, diverse, adaptable and with
a lower carbon and ecological footprint than
traditional towns. To achieve certification, the
planning, design and construction of our Drury
development will need to be assessed, with
the development evaluated on community
engagement, liveability, economic prosperity,
environmental impact and innovation.
From early on, sustainability, in its broadest
sense, has been at the centre of our vision for
Drury. Four years ago, we appointed a community
engagement specialist to interface with people
living in the area, addressing their concerns and
informing residents about upcoming activities.
We recognise the scale and pace of change
impacting this formerly rural community and
are committed to being a good corporate
citizen as we play a key part in Drury’s evolution.
We’re planning several important environmental
initiatives, which will continue over the life of
the development. One of the most prominent of
these projects is expected to be the restoration
of the Hingaia Stream that borders our property.
We intend to plant thousands of native plants
over time, helping to improve water quality and
reduce emissions.
Cyclone Gabrielle and the Auckland floods
highlighted the potential effects of extreme
weather on our developments. Our plan for Drury
accounts for climate change risk, while computer
stress-test simulations show that the site is well-
equipped to deal with torrential storms. It’s no
surprise then that our Drury landholding was
unaffected by the recent weather events, and
while we feel fortunate to have avoided damage,
we are equally pleased that the future residents
at our Drury development can look forward to
safe, dry homes.
Drury has the potential to be a cornerstone
project for Kiwi Property over the next two
decades and perhaps beyond, diversifying
our asset base, broadening our geographical
footprint, and enabling us to establish another
substantial mixed-use community. It took
foresight to see Sylvia Park’s potential when
we purchased the site in 1995, and today, it is
one of New Zealand’s leading property assets.
Like Sylvia Park, our vision for Drury will take time
to realise; however, we have the commitment
and the perseverance to make it happen. When
we do, the benefits have the potential to be
significant, not just for the thousands of people
who will one day shop, work or play there, but for
Kiwi Property’s shareholders, who stand poised
to benefit from the revenue and valuation growth
that Drury is expected to deliver.

3 Te Kehu Way
Kiwi Property Annual Report 202328
The delivery of our mixed-use strategy took
another step forward in March 2023, following
the completion of the striking new 3 Te Kehu
Way office development. The building’s
opening marks a significant milestone in
Sylvia Park’s continued transition into a
connected community where people can
live, work, shop and play.
In the post-COVID era, the office’s role has
evolved to accommodate an increased focus
on collaboration and culture. As a result, many
organisations are changing how they think
about their office networks, including whether
they need a large and expensive CBD presence
or would be better served by supplementing
their downtown corporate headquarters
with one or more suburban satellite offices.
This ‘hub and spoke’ model is not only cost-
effective, it also offers workers greater flexibility
and the benefits of a shorter commute.
Located opposite the landmark ANZ Raranga
Tower, 3 Te Kehu Way caters to this trend and
has been designed with the requirements of
both commercial and medical tenants in mind;
the latter of which is a sector of increasing
focus for Kiwi Property due to its forecast
resilience and long-term growth prospects.
Catering to office and
medical tenants
3 Te Kehu Way is comprised of two distinct
but interconnected buildings. The first caters
to office tenants and offers flexible tenant
configurations across 1,019 sqm floor plates,
excellent amenities, high-quality end-of-trip
facilities and abundant natural light.
The development’s six-level office building
is proving attractive to tenants seeking
premises close to public transport and
motorway links while offering the benefits of
being part of a leading mixed-use community.
Committed tenants include the government
agency, Rau Paenga, Geneva Finance, hybrid
working space provider, Regus, and engineering
firm, CLC Consulting.
Next door is a low-rise two-level building geared
to the specialist needs of medical services, with
the likes of Smile Dental, Horizon Radiology and
Tamaki Health medical centre already on board.
A separate entrance and lobby give health
providers their own ‘front door’, ensuring
patient privacy and discretion.
The opportunity to be part of Sylvia Park’s
mixed-use community has been a drawcard
for potential tenants of 3 Te Kehu Way. As a
centre, it is arguably better served for transport
than many CBD locations, with a train station
on-site and in walking distance, with services
every 18 minutes, four bus routes and ramps
on and off the Southern Motorway. In addition,
1.3 million Aucklanders – or 91% of the population,
are within a 30-minute commute.
1
3 Te Kehu Way is a short walk from the Sylvia
Park retail precinct, with its market-leading
mix of 250 retail outlets, restaurants, food
courts, banking services, personal care services,
childcare, a gym and supermarkets. With Sylvia
Park also the site for New Zealand’s first major
build-to-rent apartment development, residential
accommodation will soon be included in the
community mix.
Strong sustainability credentials
In line with our commitment to sustainable
development, 3 Te Kehu Way is targeting a 6
star Green Star design and as built rating by the
New Zealand Green Building Council (NZGBC).
The leasing programme for 3 Te Kehu Way is
progressing well, with the building expected
to be fully leased shortly. Fitouts have already
commenced and the first tenants are now on site.

People and Partnerships – which are aligned to
the United Nations Sustainable Development
Goals. An overview is available on the right-

Places
This pillar of our Sustainability Strategy aims
to create places that promote wellbeing while
minimising our environmental impact.
Our placemaking and public art initiatives
continued during the year, most notably
the attractive transformation of the Sylvia
Lane dining precinct. These initiatives bring
our buildings and spaces to life by creating
opportunities for our communities to connect
with nature and each other.
We are focused on reducing the portfolio’s
environmental footprint as we work towards
becoming net carbon negative in our operations
by 2030. Guided by our Carbon Reduction
Roadmap, the expansion of the Sylvia Park
rooftop solar array during the year will increase
the precinct’s solar output to a peak capacity of
1.21 MWp and should produce enough electricity
to supply over 50% of the shopping centre’s
common areas. Our buildings are more water
efficient, using 11% less water compared to
our 2012 base year. Our waste management
programme encourages tenant partners, visitors
and customers to reduce waste and increase
recycling, with our buildings sending 13% less
waste to landfill in FY23 than in 2012. Our portfolio
and asset-level climate risk assessments help to
ensure we effectively manage and mitigate these
risks over the medium to long term.
We achieved our building rating targets, with all
eligible office buildings maintaining a minimum
4 star NABERSNZ rating. The 3 Te Kehu Way office
development targets a NZGBC 6 Star Green Star
rating, which represents ‘world leadership’ in
sustainable buildings. We have set Green Star,
Homestar and NABERSNZ rating targets for the
homes and town centre buildings in our new
Drury community.

People
This strategic pillar aims to foster wellbeing in
our communities and create a diverse, equitable,
inclusive and high-performing Kiwi Property team.
FY23 was our first year as an official supporter
of the Mental Health Foundation, which aims
to create a society free from discrimination
where all people enjoy positive mental health.
We supported a range of campaigns to increase
awareness of the Foundation’s work including
Pink Shirt Day and the Better Together Social
Connection Campaign, reaching tens of
thousands of Kiwis in the process. All existing
assets held a Be.Lab gold rating or higher, in line
with our strategic target for accessibility.
Kiwi Property again met our 40:40:20 gender
representation target for the Executive Team.
We hosted events for our people and our
customers to mark days of significance, including
the first national Matariki holiday, and are working
to better reflect the diversity of the communities
we serve in our workforce.
Our employee engagement score rose to 70% in
FY23 (FY22: 65%), achieving our target to equal
or exceed the national benchmark.
1
The care and
support people receive from their leaders and
understanding how their work contributes to Kiwi
Property’s success were key engagement drivers.
Working collaboratively with our people, we are
developing new corporate values and intend to
launch these in early 2024.
We made significant
progress in the delivery of
our Sustainability Strategy
during FY23, enhancing our
environmental performance,
building the resilience of
our property portfolio, and
increasing our social impact.

Kiwi Property Annual Report 202332
Building our portfolio’s resilience
in a changing climate
Recent extreme weather events have
been a sobering reminder of the effects
of climate change, and we donated $10,000
to the Red Cross Disaster Fund to support
those affected.
While Kiwi Property’s assets were largely
unaffected by these events, our objective to
become net carbon negative in our operations
by 2030 has increased in importance. Ahead
of next year’s mandatory climate disclosure
regime in New Zealand, we continue to take our
responsibilities on climate change seriously
and are focused on building high-performing,
resilient assets that meet society’s future needs.
A recently completed climate risk assessment
will guide our efforts to ensure we are effectively
managing and mitigating these risks over the
short, medium and long term.

section of our Sustainability Report, which was
prepared with reference to the recommendations
of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial
Disclosures (TCFD).

Partnerships
The Partnerships strategic pillar aims to connect
and empower our partners to deliver social and
environmental change.
Our partnerships with Be.Lab, Accessibility Tick
and the Safe Space Alliance continued during
the year, collaborating to enhance our assets to
ensure that people from diverse groups and with
diverse needs can access and enjoy our places.
We developed an ESG engagement programme to
harness our tenants’ growing interest in the topic.
Working together to reduce our environmental
impact and support our communities will help
Kiwi Property and our partners achieve our
collective sustainability goals. The programme
will continue into FY24.
Following the introduction of our Sustainable
Procurement Guidelines in FY22, we developed
a Sustainable Procurement Action Plan during
the year to further integrate ESG considerations
into our procurement practices. The Action Plan
prioritises decarbonisation, the elimination of
modern slavery, and accessibility as areas where
our procurement can have the greatest impact
across our supply chain.
During the year, we completed a modern slavery
risk assessment, which enabled us to understand
potential modern slavery risks in our tier-one
supply chain and identify opportunities to
strengthen our existing risk controls. A Modern
Slavery Roadmap guides our efforts to address
this complex issue.

to describe their underlying and recurring cash flows from operations. Broadly, AFFO adjusts FFO by deducting the cost of lease incentives, leasing fees, annual maintenance
capital expenditure for sustaining and maintaining existing space and one-off costs. AFFO does not have a standard meaning prescribed by GAAP and therefore may not be
comparable to information presented by other entities. AFFO is calculated by Kiwi Property in accordance with the Voluntary Best Practice Guidelines issued by the Property
Council of Australia (the Guidelines). The reported AFFO information has been extracted from the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements which have been the

1.4 Group structure (continued)
Joint ventures
The Group holds a 50% interest in both The Base and The Centre Place unincorporated joint ventures. The Group has determined
that its interests constitute a joint arrangement as the relevant decisions about the properties require the unanimous consent of both
parties. The joint arrangements have been classified as joint operations on the basis that the parties have direct rights to the assets
and obligations for the liabilities relating to their share of the properties in the normal course of business. The Group recognises its
share of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses of the joint ventures.
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the Company and the entities it controls up until the date control ceases. The balances
and effects of transactions between controlled entities and the Company are eliminated in full.
1.5
New standards, amendments and interpretations
Rental abatements
The International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) published an agenda decision in October 2022 regarding
the accounting by a lessor when lease payments are forgiven. The decision clarified that IFRS 9 Financial Instruments applies to the
forgiveness of amounts contractually due for past rent. The forgiveness of lease payments relating to future periods are accounted
for as a modification of the lease to which IFRS 16 Leases applies.
The Group previously accounted for rental abatements as lease modifications whereby the change in lease payments were
recognised on a straight-line basis over the remaining lease term.
Where an abatement is granted retrospectively on uncollected past due rent, the agenda decision requires the abatement to be
expensed as an impairment of trade receivables. As a consequence, the Group has retrospectively changed its accounting policy in
respect of the forgiveness of past due rent and comparative information has been restated.
Rental abatements of $1.6 million provided in the current year have been expensed as an impairment of trade receivables.
The following tables summarise the impact of this change in accounting policy on the comparative consolidated financial statements:

1.5 New standards, amendments and interpretations (continued)
Climate-related Disclosures
On 14 December 2022, the External Reporting Board (XRB) published its Climate-related Disclosures standards. The mandatory
reporting regime for disclosing risks in the Annual Report under these new standards is for reporting periods beginning on or after
1 January 2023.
The Group currently prepares and discloses climate related risks in its Sustainability Report, with reference to the recommendations
of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). Disclosures aligned to the new standards will form part of the
Annual Report for the year ended 31 March 2024.
1.6 Key judgements and estimates
In the process of applying the Group's accounting policies, a number of judgements have been made and estimates of future events
applied. Judgements and estimates are found in the following notes:
Note 2.3Tax expensePage 57
Note 3.1Provision for doubtful debtsPage 59
Note 3.2Investment propertiesPage 60

Note 3.6.4Share-based paymentsPage 78
1.7 Accounting policies
Accounting policies that summarise the measurement bases used and are relevant to an understanding of the consolidated financial
statements are provided throughout the notes to the consolidated financial statements. Other relevant policies are provided
as follows:
Measurement of fair values
The Group classifies its fair value measurement using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making
the measurements. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:
•
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
•
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within 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).
The carrying amount of all financial assets and liabilities is equivalent to their fair values apart from the fixed-rate green bonds (refer
to note 3.4.1 for further details on the fair value of the fixed-rate green bonds).
Goods and Services Tax
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a Goods and Services Tax exclusive basis, with the exception of
receivables and payables which are inclusive of Goods and Services Tax where relevant.
Property management revenue
Property management revenue is recognised over time as performance obligations are satisfied in accordance with the
management contracts.
Litigation settlement income
Litigation settlement income received in connection with investment properties is classified as cash flows from investing activities
within the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows as the proceeds are used to remediate the investment properties.

Property operating lease income1,211,2471,391,247
Recognition and measurement
The Group enters into property leases with tenants on its investment properties. The Group has determined that it retains all
significant risks and rewards of ownership of these properties and has therefore classified the leases as operating leases.
Rental income from those leases, including fixed rental increases, is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
Lease incentives offered to tenants as an inducement to enter into leases are capitalised to investment properties and then
amortised over the term of the lease as a reduction of rental income.
The share of property operating expenses which are recoverable from tenants is recognised as gross rental income from
expense recoveries. This is associated with the provision of services relating to the operations of the Group's properties (for
example, council and water rates, insurance, utilities, repairs and maintenance, security costs). The Group recognises revenue
in the accounting period the underlying expenses are incurred in accordance with the contractual terms.

2.2 Expenses (continued)
Recognition and measurement
Interest and finance charges
The interest and finance charges on bank loans are expensed in the period in which they occur, other than associated
transaction costs which are capitalised and amortised over the term of the facility to which they relate.
The interest expense on fixed-rate green bonds is recognised using the effective interest rate method.
To determine the amount of borrowing costs capitalised to investment properties that are being constructed or developed for
future use, the Group uses the weighted average interest rate applicable to its outstanding borrowings during the year. For 2023
this was 4.69% (2022: 3.95%).
Finance charges also include interest on lease liabilities as outlined in note 3.2.
Employee entitlements
Employee benefits are expensed as the related service is provided. Details of the employee entitlements expense in relation to
share-based payments is outlined in note 3.6.4.

Kiwi Property Annual Report 202358
2.3 Tax expense (continued)
Recognition and measurement
Current tax
Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted
at balance date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all taxable temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities
for
financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. For deferred tax liabilities or assets arising on
investment property measured at fair value, it is assumed that the carrying amounts of investment property will be recovered
through sale (refer to note
3.3).
Imputation credits
The imputation credits available represent the balance of the imputation credit account at the end of the reporting period,
adjusted for imputation credits which will arise from the payment of the income tax liability.
Key estimates and assumptions: income tax
Deferred tax on depreciation
Deferred tax is provided in respect of depreciation expected to be recovered on the sale of investment properties at fair value.
Investment properties are valued each year by independent valuers. These values include an allocation of the valuation between
the land and building components. The calculation of deferred tax on depreciation recovered relies on this allocation provided
by the valuers.
The calculation of deferred tax on depreciation recovered also requires an assessment to be made of market values attributable
to fixtures and fittings. The market values of fixtures and fittings for significant properties have been assessed utilising
independent valuation advice and the remaining properties have been assessed with reference to previous transactional
evidence and their age and quality.

Receivables written off during the year as uncollectible(135)(154)
Unused amounts reversed(1,672)(403)
Closing provision for doubtful debts2,0063,374
Recognition and measurement
Trade debtors are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest
rate method, less an allowance for impairment. Collectability of trade debtors is reviewed on an ongoing basis and a provision
for doubtful debts is made when there is evidence that the Group will not be able to collect the receivable. In determining
the provision, the Group applies the
simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses prescribed by NZ IFRS 9, which
permits the use of lifetime expected credit losses for all trade debtors. To measure the expected credit losses the Group uses
a provision matrix that is based on its historical credit loss experience, adjusted for forward-looking factors specific to debtors
and the economic environment. Debtors are written off when recovery is no longer anticipated. All overdue debtors considered
to be impaired have been provided for at balance date.
Key estimates and assumptions: provision for doubtful debts
The Group’s property revenue largely consists of fixed rental obligations due under lease agreements, which are received
monthly in advance. Therefore, property revenue and the assessment of the recoverability of tenant debtors have not been
subject to a significant level of judgement or estimation prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. Retail trade was unfavourably
impacted by COVID-19 due to extended lockdown periods in the year ended
31 March 2022. As a result, the trade debtor balance
at this time was relatively high compared to pre-pandemic levels. Judgement is required in determining allowances for expected
credit losses on these receivables.
Kiwi Property Annual Report 202360
3.2 Investment properties
Recognition and measurement
Investment properties are properties held for long-term capital appreciation and to earn rental income.
Initial recognition - acquired properties
Investment properties are initially measured at cost, plus related costs of acquisition. Subsequent expenditure is capitalised to
the asset's carrying amount when it adds value to the asset and its cost can be measured.
Initial recognition - properties being developed
Investment properties also include properties that are being constructed or developed for future use as investment properties.
All costs directly associated with the purchase and construction of a property, and all subsequent capital expenditures for the
development qualifying as acquisition costs, are capitalised. Borrowing costs are capitalised if they are directly attributable to
the development.
Subsequent measurement
After initial recognition, investment properties are measured at fair value as determined by independent registered valuers.
Investment properties under construction are carried at cost until it is possible to reliably determine their fair value, from which
point they are carried at fair value. Investment properties are valued at least annually and may not be valued by the same valuer
for more than three consecutive years.
Any gains or losses arising from changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss in the reporting period in which they arise.
Investment properties are classified as held for sale when they are actively marketed for sale and their carrying amount will be
recoverable principally through a sale transaction rather than continuing use. Investment properties held for sale are carried at
fair value. Where a contracted sale price is available, the investment property is carried at that value less associated costs for
seismic remediation or rental guarantees, this being the best indicator of fair value. Where no contracted price is available, the
fair value is determined by independent registered valuers.
Lease incentives
Lease incentives provided by the Group to lessees are included in the measurement of fair value of investment properties and
are treated as separate assets. Such assets are amortised on a straight-line basis over the respective periods to which the lease
incentives apply.
Ground leases
While the majority of the Group’s investment portfolio is freehold, the Group has entered into several occupational ground
leases of properties or components of properties in its investment portfolio to which NZ IFRS 16 applies. Lease liabilities are
initially measured as the present value of the remaining cash flows discounted at the 'incremental borrowing rate', being the
property yield for the properties with the benefit of the occupational ground leases. Property yield is used given the long term
nature of the leases. The cash flows relating to the ground leases are also included in the fair value of the investment properties
and therefore a gross up for the lease liability is recognised in the investment property balance at the amount equal to the
lease liability.
The Group is exposed to potential future increases in variable lease payments which are not included in lease liabilities until
they take effect. When this occurs a corresponding adjustment is made to the gross up of the lease liability in the investment
property balance.
Lease payments are allocated between principal and finance costs. The finance cost is charged to the Consolidated Statement
of Comprehensive Income over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance
of the liability for each period.
Disposals
Investment properties are derecognised when they have been disposed of. The net gain or loss on disposal is calculated as the
difference between the carrying amount of the investment property at the time of the disposal and the proceeds on disposal
and is included in profit or loss in the reporting period in which the disposal settled.

3.2 Investment properties (continued)
Key estimates and assumptions: valuation and fair value measurement of
investment properties
Introduction
All of the Group's investment properties have been determined to be Level 3 (2022: Level 3) in the fair value hierarchy because
all significant inputs that determine fair value are not based on observable market data. Refer to note 1.7 for further information
on the fair value hierarchy.
Valuation process
Except for a small number of non-core residential properties owned by the Group, which are addressed below, all investment
properties were valued as at 31 March 2023 (and as at 31 March 2022). All valuations are prepared by independent valuers who
are members of the Group's valuation panel and the New Zealand Institute of Valuers.
The non-core residential properties were subject to a kerbside assessment performed by an independent registered valuer that
is a member of the New Zealand Institute of Valuers. The valuer is not on the Group’s valuation panel. The properties represent
less than 1% of the value of the Group’s investment properties.
Investment property values are assessed within a range indicated by at least two valuation approaches; most commonly
the income capitalisation approach and discounted cash flow approach. Other valuation approaches, including the sales
comparison approach or deferred land value approach may be used depending on the nature of the property. In addition, the
adopted valuation of an investment property undergoing development may be assessed using a residual approach.
Estimates are used in these valuation approaches to determine fair value. For the two most common approaches, these include
the capitalisation rate in the income capitalisation approach and the discount rate in the discounted cash flow approach. Both
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 and other capital payments.
In relation to capital expenditure, the valuers for Sylvia Park, LynnMall, The Base, Vero Centre, ASB North Wharf, The Aurora
Centre and The Plaza have made deductions for seismic strengthening works. The valuer of Centre Place North has assessed
the seismic risk of the asset in the capitalisation rate of the valuation. The Group has provided the valuers with the estimated
cost of works for each asset. In some instances the valuer has assessed additional costs for potential works to buildings which
have not been subject to a Detailed Seismic Assessment (DSA) and/or made additional adjustments such as for escalation and
profit and risk.
The timing of the cash outflow for these costs has typically been spread over the next two to three years and the overall value
deduction reflects the present value of costs over the adopted time horizon. Refer also to the section titled ‘seismic’ below for
further information.
One asset within the Sylvia Park Precinct was valued using the residual approach as at 31 March 2023, being the Sylvia Park
build-to-rent (BTR) property, as the development of this property has commenced with construction underway. Under the
residual approach, valuers estimate the ‘as if complete’ value of an asset using the discounted cash flow approach described
above. They then deduct remaining project costs to determine the asset’s ‘as is’ or residual value.
The valuations are reviewed by the Group and adopted as the carrying value in the financial statements. As part of this process,
the Group’s management verifies all major inputs to the valuations, assesses valuation movements since the previous period
and holds discussions with the independent valuers to assess the reasonableness of the valuations.
Kiwi Property Annual Report 202366
3.2 Investment properties (continued)
Seismic
The Group is committed to upgrading the seismic resilience of its buildings to appropriate New Building Standards (NBS).
Detailed Seismic Assessments (DSA) continue to be undertaken for the Group’s buildings. A DSA verifies a building’s NBS rating
and assists in the design of remediation solutions, where required.
The cost assessments for seismic works required to increase NBS ratings contain uncertainty. The level of accuracy of design
solutions and cost estimates can vary as the design and remediation process progresses. Initially, estimates may be based on
the structural plans of a building, and can sometimes change significantly once more intrusive building investigations are carried
out. Therefore, costs for remediation works may fluctuate, and the costs associated with current or imminent remediation works
will be more accurate than those for a project in the early phases of investigation or planning.
The process undertaken and standards which are applied in seismic assessments evolve over time as the engineering
profession’s understanding of seismic events develops. This means that the outcome of seismic assessments may be subject
to change over time. Changes to seismic standards (or the interpretation and application of existing seismic standards) could
result in buildings no longer meeting the minimum seismic standards deemed appropriate by the Group, and may require the
Group to undertake further seismic remediation works.
Valuations for some of the Group’s buildings contain deductions for costs associated with identified seismic remediation works.
The cost deductions are typically based on external quantity surveyor assessments with additional allowances for professional
fees and other associated costs. In some instances the valuer has assessed additional costs for potential works to buildings
which have not been subject to a DSA and/or made additional adjustments such as for escalation and profit and risk.
In some cases the Group has become aware of potential remediation requirements from recent preliminary investigations.
In these instances the Group has provided additional provisions to the valuers for inclusion in the valuations, the present
value of which is $48.2 million (2022: $51.3 million). These provisions are estimated allowances pending the outcome of
further investigations.
When estimating such allowances, the Group considers several factors and applies judgement on how those factors may impact
future costs. Factors requiring judgement include the function of the impacted area, impact on existing tenants and complexity
of remediation works. Costing is assessed based on internal and external evidence of seismic remediation, with consideration
given to the nature and relevance of similar properties. Management applies a probability and risk weighting assessment across
these inputs to derive a value for estimated allowances. While a change in risk weighting on one factor may not on its own result
in a material change in the seismic estimate, it is possible that the risk weighting could change in a combination of factors which
could potentially result in a material change in the seismic estimate.
These allowances are based on the best information available at the time of valuation but may be subject to change as
circumstances and standards continue to evolve.
Climate change
The Group continues to identify the impact of climate change on the business and its assets. The valuers made no explicit
adjustments in respect of climate change matters. However, the Group and valuers anticipate that climate change could have
a greater influence on valuations in the future as investment markets place a greater emphasis on this risk and its impacts.
Impact on values at 31 March 2023
For the year ended 31 March 2023, the Group reported a fair value loss of $352.6 million. The loss reflects expanding
capitalisation rates and discount rates consistent with higher risk-free-rates and heightened investment uncertainty relative
to the prior year, as well as additional allowances for potential seismic remediation costs.
Kiwi Property Annual Report 202367
3.2 Investment properties (continued)
Valuation inputs
A valuation is determined based on a range of unobservable inputs. These are unobservable as they are not freely available or
explicit in the marketplace but rather analysed from transactional data that has taken place in similar market circumstances to
that prevailing at the date of valuation. Refer to note 1.7 for further information on the fair value hierarchy.
The Group’s investment property values contain unobservable inputs in determining fair value, some of which can be described
as ‘key unobservable inputs’ where significant judgement is applied in determining the input and a change to any one of these
inputs could significantly alter the fair value of an investment property.
Key unobservable inputs are the capitalisation rate, discount rate, terminal capitalisation rate, market rent and growth rates. The
most significant key unobservable inputs are the capitalisation rate and discount rate.
The table below sets out these key unobservable inputs and the ranges adopted by the valuers across the various properties
making up the Group’s mixed-use and office portfolios.
While values increased at 31 March 2022 following the reversal of early impacts of COVID-19 and a general strengthening in
metrics from 2021 to 2022, this trend has now started to reverse following rising interest rates locally and globally. This is mainly
evident through the capitalisation rate and discount rate metrics, which have expanded, having an effect of decreasing the fair
value despite increased market rents.

Valuation sensitivity
A sensitivity analysis that shows how a change to capitalisation and discount rates affects the value of the Group’s portfolio is
provided below. The metrics chosen are those single-value inputs where movements are likely to have the most significant impact on
the fair value of investment properties.
The capitalisation rate relates to the income capitalisation approach and the discount rate relates to the discounted cash flow
approach. Generally, a change in the capitalisation rate is accompanied by a directionally similar change in the discount rate. The table
below assesses each of these inputs in isolation and assumes all other inputs are held constant.

3.2 Investment properties (continued)
The valuation of investment properties is complex with a number of interrelated key inputs and assumptions.
When calculating the income capitalisation value, the gross market rent has a strong interrelationship with the core capitalisation rate.
An increase in the gross market rent and an increase in the core capitalisation rate could potentially offset the impact to fair value.
The same can be said for a decrease in each input. A directionally opposite change in the two inputs could potentially magnify the
impact to the fair value.
When calculating the discounted cash flow value, the discount rate has a strong interrelationship with the terminal capitalisation rate.
An increase in the discount rate and a decrease in the terminal capitalisation rate could potentially offset the impact to fair value. The
same can be said for an opposite movement in each input. A directionally similar change in the two inputs could potentially magnify
the impact to the fair value.
The following table explains the key inputs used to measure fair value for investment properties.
Valuation techniques
Income capitalisation approachA valuation technique which determines fair value by capitalising a property's core net
income at an appropriate, market derived rate of return with subsequent capital adjustments
for near-term events, typically including letting up allowances, capital expenditure and the
difference between contract and market rentals.
Discounted cash flow approachA valuation technique which requires explicit assumptions to be made regarding the
prospective income and expenses of a property over an assumed holding period, typically
10 years. The assessed cash flows are discounted to present value at an appropriate,
market-derived discount rate to determine fair value.
Residual approachA valuation technique used primarily for property which is undergoing, or is expected
to undergo, redevelopment. Fair value is determined through the estimation of a gross
realisation on completion of the redevelopment with deductions made for all costs
associated with converting the property to its end use including finance costs and a typical
profit margin for risks assumed by the developer.
Unobservable inputs within the income capitalisation approach
Gross market rentThe annual amount for which a tenancy within a property is expected to achieve under a new
arm's length leasing transaction, including a fair share of property operating expenses.
Core capitalisation rateThe rate of return, determined through analysis of comparable market-related sales
transactions, which is applied to a property's core net income to derive value.
Other income capitalisation rateThe rate of return which is applied to other, typically variable or uncontracted, sources of
property income to derive value and that is assessed with consideration to the risks in
achieving each income source.
Unobservable inputs within the discounted cash flow approach
Discount rateThe rate, determined through analysis of comparable market-related sales transactions,
that is applied to a property's future net cash flows to convert those cash flows into a
present value.
Terminal capitalisation rateThe rate which is applied to a property's core net income at the end of an assumed holding
period to derive an estimated future market value.
Rental growth rateThe annual growth rate applied to market rents over an assumed holding period.

Recognition and measurement
Deferred tax is provided for all taxable temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial
reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is
probable that future taxable profits will be available to utilise them. For deferred tax assets or liabilities arising on investment
property, it is assumed that the carrying amounts of investment property will be recovered through sale. Deferred tax is
disclosed on a net basis, as the deferred tax assets and the deferred tax liabilities relate to the same taxation authority.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each balance 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 tax asset to be utilised.
Deferred 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) applicable at balance date.

1The Group previously had $40 million of fixed-rate receiver swaps for the duration of the $100 million KPG040 fixed-rate green bonds, which were closed out during the current
financial year. The effect of the fixed-rate receiver swaps was to convert a portion of the bond to floating interest rates.

Interest rate derivatives (continued)
Recognition and measurement
Interest rate derivative instruments are initially recognised at fair value on the date on which a derivative contract is entered
into and are subsequently re-measured to fair value each balance date exclusive of accrued interest. Fair values at balance date
are calculated to be the present value of the estimated future cash flows of these instruments. Transaction costs are expensed
on initial recognition and recognised in
profit or loss. Derivatives are carried as assets when their fair value is positive and as
liabilities when their fair value is negative.
The Group does not designate any derivatives into hedging relationships. Gains or losses arising from changes in fair value of
interest rate derivatives are recognised in profit or loss.
Key estimate: fair value of interest rate derivatives
The fair values of interest rate derivatives are determined from valuations prepared by an independent treasury advisor using
valuation techniques classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy (2022: Level 2). Refer to note 1.7 for further information on
the fair value hierarchy. These are based on the present value of estimated future cash flows based on the terms and maturities
of each contract and the current market interest rates at balance date. Fair values also
reflect the current creditworthiness
of the derivative counterparties. These values are verified against valuations prepared by the respective counterparties. The
valuations were based on market rates at 31 March 2023 of between 5.23% for the 90-day BKBM and 4.30% for the 10-year swap
rate (2022: 1.53% and 3.38%, respectively).
Kiwi Property Annual Report 202375
3.4.3
Capital management
The Group's capital includes equity and interest bearing liabilities. The Group maintains a strong capital base to ensure investor,
creditor and market confidence and to sustain the Group's ongoing activities. The impact of the level of capital on shareholder returns
and the need to maintain a balance between the higher returns that might be possible with greater gearing and the advantages and
security afforded by a sound capital position is managed by the Group. The Group is subject to the capital requirement imposed by
the Group's Senior Facilities Agreement governing its interest bearing liabilities which requires that total finance debt be maintained
at no more than 50% (previously 45%) of the total tangible assets of the Group. Gearing for the Group’s fixed-rate bonds is maintained
at no more than 45%, with the exception of KPG060 which is maintained at no more than 50%, as governed by the Master Trust Deed
between the Group and the Supervisor (Public Trust). However, the Group actively manages its debt to its internal treasury policy
which sets a target gearing range of 25% to 35%. In certain market conditions, the Group may temporarily operate outside the internal
target gearing range. The Group has complied with its Senior Facilities Agreement capital requirement at all times throughout the year.
The Group actively manages liquidity risk to ensure that it is able to access sufficient funds on a timely basis to meet operational
expenses, capital and debt expiry commitments as and when they fall due. To enhance its access to a range of funding sources, the
Group has secured credit ratings from S&P Global Ratings. To minimise liquidity risk, the Group ensures that it maintains sufficient
capacity in its overall debt facilities to cover projected debt (current debt plus Board approved capital commitments), has ready
access to sufficient cash reserves or available debt drawdowns, and reliably forecasts its expected cash requirements. Further detail
on liquidity risk is provided in note 4.3.
Dividend payments are based on a range of factors, including with particular reference to the Group’s adjusted funds from operations
(AFFO), which is the primary basis on which dividend amounts are determined. AFFO is a non-GAAP performance measure used by
the Group to determine underlying and recurring cash flows from operations. AFFO is calculated with reference to the guidelines
established by the Property Council of Australia. In determining a dividend payment, the Group will have regard to, amongst other
things, the solvency requirements under the Companies Act 1993, its banking and green bond covenants and internal financing
targets, its future investment plans, current and forecast earnings, operating cash flows, and the economic climate and competitive
environment. Having regard to these matters, the Group will target a dividend payout ratio of approximately 90% to 100% of AFFO.
At balance date, the market capitalisation of the Group (being the 31 March 2023 closing share price, as quoted on the NZX Main Board,
multiplied by the number of shares on issue) was below the carrying amount of the Group’s net assets and shareholders’ funds. In
considering the difference, the Group notes that 99% of total assets at 31 March 2023 are investment properties which are carried at
fair value as detailed in note 3.2.
Factors that may influence market capitalisation include, amongst other things:
•
Broader market and investor sentiment
•
Property market segment sentiment, particularly with regard to retail assets
•
Effect of leverage of debt funding and including corporate overheads
•
The impact of rising interest rates, inflation, supply chain issues and other market factors.
In the review of valuations and the considerations around fair value determined by the independent valuers (as disclosed in note 3.2),
and having considered the influencing factors above, the Group considers the carrying amount of net assets is appropriate.

Share-based payments
Long-term incentive (LTI) plans
Performance Share Rights LTI Plan
Participants of the LTI plan are issued Performance Share Rights (PSRs) for service periods of one, two and three years. The number of
PSRs that can be exercised and converted into shares in the Company depends on a mix of the Company's shareholder return relative
to comparator entities and a return on capital employed metric over a one year performance period. On vesting, the participant is
entitled to receive one share upon the valid exercise of each vested PSR they hold.
On 1 April 2022, the LTI plan was changed from an annual tranche vesting approach to a single-point, three-year vesting approach.
The previous plan is being progressively phased out (referred to as 'grandfathering') over the 31 March 2023 and 31 March 2024
financial years.
Recognition and measurement
The fair value of the LTI plans at grant date is recognised over the vesting period of the plan as an employee entitlements
expense, with a corresponding increase in the share-based payments reserve. The fair value is independently measured using
an appropriate option pricing model.

Key estimates and assumptions: fair value measurement of LTI plan
The fair value of the LTI plans have been determined using a Monte Carlo simulation to model a range of future share price
outcomes for the Company and comparator entities. The fair value at grant date and the measurement inputs used were
as follows:
Performance Share Rights LTI Plan
Measurement date31 March 202531 March 202331 March 2022

Estimated fair value per share$0.830$0.852$1.032
The volatility and correlation measures were derived from measuring the standard deviation and correlation of returns for listed
entities in the S&P/NZX All Real Estate Index over a three-year period. The risk free rate was based on government bond yields
over the same period.
It has been assumed that participants will remain employed with the Company on the vesting date. Dividend assumptions are
based on projected dividend payments over the vesting period.
The employee entitlements expense relating to the LTI plan for the year ended 31 March 2023 is $1,376,986 (2022: $1,075,955)
with a corresponding increase in the share-based payments reserve. The unamortised fair value of the remaining performance
share rights at 31 March 2023 is $1,098,731 (2022: $623,106).
4. Financial risk management
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
Kiwi Property Annual Report 202380
In the normal course of business, the Group is exposed to a variety of financial risks. This section explains the Group's exposure to
financial risks, how these risks could affect the Group's financial performance and how they are managed.
The Group is exposed to the following financial risks through its use of financial instruments:
•
Interest rate risk
•
Credit risk
•
Liquidity risk
Financial instruments
The following items in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position are classified as financial instruments: cash and cash
equivalents, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables, interest bearing liabilities and interest rate derivatives. All financial
instruments are recorded at amortised cost with the exception of interest rate derivatives, which are recorded at fair value through
profit or loss.
Risk management
The Board has overall responsibility for establishing and overseeing the Group's risk management framework. The Board has an Audit
and Risk Committee with responsibilities that include risk management, compliance and financial management and control.
The Group has developed a risk management framework which guides management and the Board in the identification, assessment
and monitoring of new and existing risks. Management report to the Audit and Risk Committee and the Board on relevant risks and
the controls and treatments of those risks.
4.1
Interest rate risk
Nature of the risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that fluctuations in interest rates impact the Group's financial performance or the fair value of its holdings
of financial instruments.
Risk management
The Group adopts a policy of reducing its exposure to changes in interest rates by utilising interest rate derivatives to limit future
interest cost volatility by exchanging floating rate interest obligations for fixed rate interest obligations or by exchanging fixed rate
interest obligations for floating rate interest obligations. The Group has established a treasury management group consisting of senior
management and external treasury advisors to review and set treasury strategy within the guidelines of its treasury policy.
Exposure
The Group's exposure to interest rate risk arises primarily from bank loans which are subject to floating interest rates. The weighted
average interest rate, term to maturity of interest bearing liabilities and details of the interest rate derivatives utilised are set out in
note 3.4. The fair value of interest rate derivatives is impacted by changes in market interest rates.
Kiwi Property Annual Report 202381
4.1 Interest rate risk (continued)
Sensitivity to interest rate movements
The following sensitivity analysis shows the effect on profit or loss and equity if market interest rates at balance date had been 100
basis points higher or lower with all other variables held constant.
An increase in market interest rates gives rise to a favourable impact on profit or loss and equity due to the fair value of the interest
rate derivatives increasing by more than the additional interest costs.

Net impact on equity6,520(6,873)1,817(2,033)
4.2 Credit rate risk
Nature of the risk
Credit rate risk is the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. The
Group incurs credit risk in the normal course of business from trade receivables and transactions with financial institutions.
Risk management
The risk associated with trade receivables is managed with a credit policy which includes performing credit evaluations on tenants
and imposing standard payment terms and the monitoring of aged debtors. Collateral is obtained where possible. The risk from
financial institutions is managed by only placing cash and deposits with high credit quality financial institutions.
Exposure
The carrying amounts of financial assets recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position best represent the Group's
maximum exposure to credit risk and are recognised net of any provision for losses on these financial instruments.
The Group is not exposed to any concentrations of credit risk.
Kiwi Property Annual Report 202382
4.3 Liquidity risk
Nature of the risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due.
Risk management
The Group evaluates its liquidity requirements on an ongoing basis by continuously forecasting cash flows. The Group generates
sufficient cash flows from its operating activities to meet its obligations arising from its financial liabilities and has bank facilities
available to cover potential shortfalls. The Group's approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure it will always have sufficient liquidity
to meet its obligations when they fall due under both normal and stress conditions. The Group manages liquidity by maintaining
adequate committed credit facilities and spreading maturities in accordance with its treasury policy.
Exposure
The following table analyses the Group's financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on the earliest contractual maturity
date at balance date. The amounts are contractual undiscounted cash flows, which includes interest through to maturity and assumes
all other variables remain constant.

O THE SHAREHOLDERS OF KIWI PROPERTY GROUP LIMITED
Kiwi Property Annual Report 202387
Our opinion
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Kiwi Property Group Limited (the Company), including its
subsidiaries (the Group), present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as at 31 March 2023, its financial
performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with New Zealand Equivalents to International Financial
Reporting Standards (NZ IFRS) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
What we have audited
The Group's consolidated financial statements comprise:
•
the consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 March 2023;
•
the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the year then ended;
•
the consolidated statement of changes in equity for the year then ended;
•
the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended; and
•
the notes to the consolidated financial statements, which include significant accounting policies and other
explanatory information.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand) (ISAs (NZ)) and International
Standards on Auditing (ISAs). 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 believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Independence
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) (PES 1) issued by the New Zealand Auditing and
Assurance Standards Board and the International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence
Standards) issued by the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA Code), and we have fulfilled our other ethical
responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.
Our firm carries out other services for the Group in the areas of audits of special purpose financial information in accordance with
tenancy agreements, agreed upon procedures in respect of a specified remuneration metric and asset disposals. After the balance
date, we were engaged to provide advisory services in respect of future property development funding structures and financial
models. The provision of these other services has not impaired our independence as auditor of 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 year. 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.
Kiwi Property Annual Report 202388
Description of the key audit matterHow our audit addressed the key audit matter
Valuation of investment properties
As disclosed in note 3.2 of the consolidated financial
statements, the Group’s investment property portfolio
comprising mixed-use, office and other properties, including
assets
classified as held for sale, was valued at $3.2 billion as
at 31 March 2023.
The valuation of the Group's property portfolio is inherently
subjective as it is determined based on a range of
unobservable inputs and assumptions. A small percentage
difference in any of the key individual inputs or assumptions
used in the property valuations, when aggregated, could
result in a material misstatement of the overall valuation
of investment properties. Considering the significance of
investment property to the Group, we have given this area
specific audit focus and attention.
The valuations were performed by independent registered
valuers (the valuers). The Group has adopted the assessed
values as determined by the valuers.
In determining a property's valuation, the valuers used
the two most common approaches to arrive at a range
of valuation outcomes from which the valuers derive a
point estimate: the income capitalisation approach and
the discounted cash flow approach. The capitalisation and
discount rates are considered the key unobservable inputs
for each approach respectively. These approaches also take
into account market rental levels, vacancy rates, letting-up
allowances, and the cost of ongoing operating expenses,
capital expenditure and other capital payments, including
allowances for seismic strengthening works.
Other valuation approaches include the sales comparison
approach, deferred land approach and residual approach
depending on the nature of the properties.
Given the subjectivity involved in determining valuations for
individual properties, including alternative assumptions and
valuation methods, there is a range of values for an individual
property that could be considered reasonable.
In assessing the valuation of investment properties, we held
discussions with management to:
•
understand the processes and controls in place over the
valuation; and
•
understand the movements in the Group’s investment
property portfolio, changes in the condition of each property,
and the impact of the current macroeconomic uncertainties
on the valuation.
Applying a risk-based approach, we evaluated the valuations for
a sample of specific properties. We read the valuation report for
these properties, held discussions with the respective valuers
to gain an understanding of the assumptions and estimates
used and the valuation methodology applied. Except for the
non-core residential properties that were subject to kerbside
assessment, the valuer confirmed that the valuation approach for
each property was in accordance with accounting standards and
suitable for use in determining the carrying value of investment
properties at 31 March 2023. For all properties, we agreed the
carrying amount to the external valuation reports.
We assessed the valuers' qualifications, expertise and their
objectivity and considered whether there was any bias in
determining individual valuations. We carried out procedures, on
a sample basis, to test whether property-specific information
supplied to the valuers by the Group reflected the underlying
property records held by the Group. Our work over the
assumptions used in the valuations focused on the largest
properties in the portfolio, properties where the assumptions
used and/or year-on-year fair value movement suggested a
possible outlier versus market data and those properties with
substantial allowances for development or seismic works. We
engaged our own in-house valuation specialist to assess the
methodologies, and critique and challenge the key assumptions
used by the valuers against market evidence and current market
conditions on a sample of properties.
Kiwi Property Annual Report 202389
Description of the key audit matterHow our audit addressed the key audit matter
The Sylvia Park build-to-rent (BTR) property was valued
under the residual approach, where the valuer estimated
the “as if complete” value using a discounted cash flow
approach and deducted the remaining project costs
estimated by management to determine the residual value.
For those assets classified as held for sale that have
contractual offers accepted by the Group, the assets
have been held at the contracted sales price, which is
considered fair value at balance date.
We obtained management’s estimates of costs on the properties
with substantial development or seismic works. We compared
these estimates to budgets developed by the Group's project team
and approved by the Directors, challenged estimates internally
developed by management by evaluating the basis of evidence for
assumptions used and where available, agreed the estimates to
third party reports.
We considered the appropriateness of the application of the
residual approach on the valuation of the BTR property including
estimates of costs to complete and profit and risk allowance.
For assets held for sale that are under contractual offers, we agreed
the carrying amount to the signed sale and purchase agreements.
We considered the adequacy of the disclosures made in the
consolidated financial statements.
Our audit approach
Overview
Materiality
Group scoping
Key Audit
Matters
Overall group materiality: $6,500,000, which represents approximately 5% of profit before tax
excluding the net fair value loss on investment properties and net fair value gain on interest
rate derivatives.
We chose profit before tax excluding the net fair value gain or loss on investment properties
and interest rate derivatives as the benchmark because, in our view, it is the benchmark against
which the performance of the Group is most commonly measured by users and is a generally
accepted benchmark.
Following our assessment of the risk of material misstatement, we performed a full scope audit
at the consolidated financial information level for the Group.
As reported above, we have one key audit matter, being the valuation of investment properties.
As part of designing our audit, we determined materiality and assessed the risks of material misstatement in the consolidated financial
statements. In particular, we considered where management made subjective judgements; for example, in respect of significant
accounting estimates that involved making assumptions and considering future events that are inherently uncertain. As in all of our
audits, we also addressed the risk of management override of internal controls, including among other matters, consideration of
whether there was evidence of bias that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.
Kiwi Property Annual Report 202390
Materiality
The scope of our audit was influenced by our application of materiality. An audit is designed to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement. Misstatements may arise due to fraud or error.
They are considered material if, individually or in aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions
of users taken on the basis of the consolidated financial statements.
Based on our professional judgement, we determined certain quantitative thresholds for materiality, including the overall Group
materiality for the consolidated financial statements as a whole as set out above. These, together with qualitative considerations,
helped us to determine the scope of our audit, the nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures and to evaluate the effect of
misstatements, both individually and in aggregate, on the consolidated financial statements as a whole.
How we tailored our group audit scope
We tailored the scope of our audit in order to perform sufficient work to enable us to provide an opinion on the consolidated financial
statements as a whole, taking into account the structure of the Group, the accounting processes and controls, and the industry in
which the Group operates.
Other information
The Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual
Report, but does not include the consolidated financial statements and our auditor's report thereon.
Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do 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 and, in doing
so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge
obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed on the other
information that we obtained prior to the date of this auditor’s report, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other
information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of the Directors for the consolidated financial statements
The Directors are responsible, on behalf of the Company, for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial
statements in accordance with NZ IFRS and IFRS, 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 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.
Kiwi Property Annual Report 202391
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated 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) and ISAs 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.

Board’s website at:

Remuneration report
Kiwi Property Annual Report 202396
Message from the Remuneration and Nominations Committee Chair
Dear Shareholders,
I am pleased to present the Remuneration Report for the year ended 31 March 2023 (FY23). This Report sets out Kiwi Property’s
remuneration strategy and framework, as well as the performance and remuneration outcomes for the Chief Executive
Officer (CEO)
for FY23, which align to both the Company’s strategic objectives and the interests of our shareholders.
Kiwi Property’s Board is supported by the Remuneration and Nominations Committee (RNC) to ensure appropriate remuneration
governance through policies and practices that enable the Company to attract and retain top talent at all levels of the organisation.
The RNC’s role and responsibilities are detailed in the Remuneration and Nominations Committee Charter.
Year in review
As described in the Chair’s letter and the CEO’s report, Kiwi Property delivered strong financial and operating performance in FY23,
whilst making good progress on the delivery of long-term strategic initiatives to position the Company for future growth. These results
reflect a clear and disciplined focus on the fundamentals and management of capital in a challenging economic environment, whilst
also realigning the Company's asset portfolio towards our desired future state.
Our FY23 operating earnings before interest and tax (Operating EBIT), a key internal measure used for determining a component of
short-term incentive outcomes, increased by 7.9% to $172.3 million. In addition, the Company exceeded the FY23 return on capital
employed (ROCE) target that forms part of the measures that determine the vesting outcome for long-term incentives.
While financial performance was strong, share price performance and shareholder returns were below expectations. However, total
shareholder returns (TSR) were above most of our peers which, in combination with the ROCE outcome, would have resulted in the
FY23 transitionary long-term incentive vesting in full. In recognition of the negative share price performance over the period, the Board
exercised its discretion to reduce the vesting outcome for the relative TSR component of the long-term incentive by 50%. As a result,
87.5% of this long-term incentive grant will vest rather than 100%.
CEO remuneration outcomes
The CEO's remuneration outcomes for FY23 reflect Kiwi Property's performance against its strategic financial and operational
performance goals. The CEO's base salary was reviewed and increased at 1 April 2022 following the Board's review of remuneration
benchmarking for CEOs in the New Zealand market. This followed no increase in the prior year.
The organisation’s Operating EBIT outcome, combined with achievements against our strategic ‘one team goals’ and the CEO’s
individual performance targets, resulted in a short-term incentive pay-out of $425,354 for the CEO for FY23. This outcome is 94% of
the CEO’s total on-target STI opportunity.
As described in the Remuneration Report in the FY22 Annual Report, the Board made changes to long-term incentives for FY23. These
changes included shifting from phased annual vesting over a three-year period to single-point vesting at the end of a three-year
period. The Board agreed at the time to make two final grants under the old PSR Scheme terms to the CEO and eligible participants. The
first of these grants was made in FY23 and is subject to a one-year performance period from 1 April 2022 to 31 March 2023, and 87.5%
of this grant will vest in equal tranches at 31 March 2023 and 31 March 2024. The second and final grant under the old PSR Scheme
will be made in FY24.
The first long-term incentive grant under the changes made in FY23 will not be eligible for vesting until 31 March 2025.
Changes for FY24
The Company is making a number of changes to its performance and reward framework for FY24, designed to simplify processes,
enhance the link between performance and reward outcomes, and further align executive reward to shareholder interests.
Changes to the STI Scheme
The STI Scheme will be simplified from FY24, with outcomes being based on a combination of Company performance, as measured
by Operating EBIT, and individual performance. Operating EBIT will determine the overall amount of funding for the STI Scheme, with
individual performance determining outcomes from within the available funding. These changes will allow for greater differentiation
of outcomes based on individual performance while ensuring that the total cost of the STI Scheme will be directly linked to the
Company's financial performance.
Remuneration report (continued)
Kiwi Property Annual Report 202397
Changes to the PSR Scheme
Following the changes introduced for FY23 as described in last year's Remuneration Report, further changes are being made to the PSR
Scheme for FY24 to strengthen the alignment between participant reward and shareholder interests. For long-term incentive grants
made under the PSR Scheme for FY24, the following performance measures will apply:
•
Relative Total Shareholder Return weighted at 30% and compared to a peer group of NZX-listed companies
•
Absolute Total Shareholder Return weighted at 30% and compared against post-tax cost of equity
•
Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) weighted at 40%
These changes will reduce the weighting on ROCE from 60% to 40% while increasing the total weighting of shareholder return
measures from 40% to 60%.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the employees at Kiwi Property for their commitment and support throughout the year.
On behalf of the Board and RNC, I invite you to read the Remuneration report and welcome your feedback on our approach to and
disclosure of Kiwi Property’s remuneration arrangements.

As described in the Message from the RNC Chair, for FY24 we are making changes to our remuneration structure to better align

•
Simplifying the STI scheme so that the Company's financial performance determines the total amount of funding available for STI
payments, with payments being based solely on individual performance against a set of company wide criteria that are linked to
our long-term strategy and shareholder value creation. For the CEO, STI outcomes will reflect performance in the delivery of annual
strategic objectives balanced with returns delivered to shareholders.
•
The simplified STI scheme will provide the Board with greater discretion on outcomes for the CEO and executives, moving away
from the current formulaic approach so that a broader range of factors can be considered by the Board.
•
Increasing the proportion of long-term incentive grants under the PSR scheme that are subject to shareholder return measures by
introducing an absolute TSR measure alongside the existing ROCE and relative TSR measures.
Remuneration report (continued)
Kiwi Property Annual Report 202399
Short term incentive (STI)
The STI Scheme provides eligible employees with the opportunity to be rewarded for good performance, with outcomes under the
Scheme based on a combination of company, team and individual components. The STI Scheme requires that the Company's financial
performance, measured by Operating EBIT, achieve a minimum level of performance for any payments to be made.
Measures are set each year based on the Company's strategic objectives and to best drive financial and operational performance and
the delivery of long-term shareholder value. Incentives are set around the market median for target performance, with potential for
participants to earn more for premium performance.
FY23 Performance measures
Company performance
•
The Company performance measure is linked to the Company’s budgeted operating earnings before interest and tax
(Operating EBIT).
•
The scheme is designed to drive outperformance of the Operating EBIT metric.
•
The Board determines an annual Operating EBIT threshold target that must be achieved before any incentive is paid.
•
Once this threshold target is achieved, payment of the Company component commences at 50% and can increase to a maximum
of 115% depending on the level of Operating EBIT outperformance.
Team performance
•
Our executive employees' team performance portion is measured against the ‘one team goals’ which are aligned to strategy and
approved by the Board for the performance measurement period.
•
Other employees' team performance portion is measured against a ‘plan on a page’ (which are aligned to and may be based on
the ‘one team goals'), developed by the employee's executive team member for the performance measurement period.
Individual performance
•
Our executive team's individual performance is measured against the performance of their team's ‘plan on a page’.
•
Other employees' individual performance is measured against the goals approved by the employee’s team manager.
•
Each employee’s individual performance measures are discussed and agreed between (as applicable) the Board, CEO and
managers with their direct report, in-line with the following principles:
•
Measures will be quantifiable, objective and measurable and balance being achievable yet challenging, and
•
All goals and performance indicators will be agreed at the start of the performance measurement period or as soon as
reasonably practicable following the start of the period.
Long term incentive (LTI) scheme
Performance Share Rights (PSR)
The PSR Scheme links a portion of eligible employees' remuneration to the long-term performance of Kiwi Property and creates
alignment with the interests of shareholders. Grants made under the PSR Scheme are in the form of performance share rights, which
entitles the participant to receive shares in the Company upon the vesting and exercise of those performance share rights. The
participant is entitled to receive one share upon the valid exercise of each vested share right they hold.
A grant vests at the end of a three year period, subject to the satisfaction of the performance measures set for the grant and outlined
in the table below for FY23, measured independently of each other.
The Company’s officers and certain other senior employees may be invited to join the Company’s PSR plan on an annual basis.

Limited), referred to as the ‘peer group’.
•
The TSRs of the entities in the peer group over the performance period will be ranked from
highest to lowest.
•
If Kiwi Property’s TSR over the performance period exceeds the 50th percentile in the peer
group, 50% of this portion of the LTI grant is eligible to vest.
•
If Kiwi Property’s TSR over the performance period exceeds the 75th percentile in the peer
group, 100% of this portion of the LTI grant is eligible to vest.
•
There is a straight-line progression and apportionment between these two points.
1From 1 April 2023, grants will be subject to 40% ROCE, 30% Relative TSR and 30% Absolute TSR measures.
In FY23, in addition to a grant under the PSR Scheme on the terms above, the first of two transitionary grants was made under the prior
terms of the PSR Scheme. This grant was made to the CEO and eligible participants in recognition of the change from phased annual
vesting to single-point three-year vesting from FY23. This grant was subject to a performance period of one year from 1 April 2022 to
31 March 2023, vesting in equal tranches at 31 March 2023 and 31 March 2024. The performance measures for this grant were ROCE
(75%) and relative TSR (25%) as per the grants made under the PSR Scheme in FY22.

•Westgate Lifestyle Shopping Centre sold post-balance
date for $85.7m, with settlement on 1 May 2023.

+6.0% and +4.9% at year end respectively, a
robust result –especially when viewed
alongside the continued low levels of vacancy
across the portfolio.
Mixed-use
•Mixed-use expiries remain relatively steady over
the next five years.
•Only 6% of the investment portfolio is currently
vacant or on holdover, providing significant
stability.

despite property disposals during the
year - assisted by rental growth across
the portfolio.

from lower impact of COVID-19 and
asset sales.

in FY23 reflects softening of
capitalisation rates by valuers in the
wake of increasing interest rates.

: Operating profit before income tax is an alternative non-GAAP performance measure used by Kiwi Property to assist investors inassessing the Company’s
performance for the year by adjusting for a number of non-operating items. Operating profit before income tax does not have a standard meaning
prescribed by GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to information presented by other entities. The reported operating profitbefore income tax has
been extracted from the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements, which have been the subject of an audit pursuant to New Zealand Auditing
Standards issued by the External Reporting Board.

•Decrease in MER supported by continued income
generated from management of Northlands.
•Reduction in direct property expenses driven by
reduction in rental abatements granted due to
COVID-19.
•Underlying $3m increase in expenses relates to one-
time increases in digital capability, selective slow-
down of development options, non-recurring
resourcing for transactions, and annual staff cost
increases of 3%.
•One-off costs comprise expenses incurred in the
implementation of software projects and other non-
recurring transactions.
•Excluding the impact of rental abatements in both
periods, FY23 MER has decreased 21 bps to 234 bps
compared to the prior year.

1:MER is an alternative non-GAAP measure used by Kiwi Property to assist investors in assessing the Company’s underlying operating
costs. MER is a measure commonly used by real estate entities. MER does not have a standard meaning prescribed by GAAP and
therefore may not be comparable to information presented by other entities. Kiwi Property determines MER through an annualised
calculation, where employment and administration plus direct property expenses is divided by the weighted average value of prope
rty
assets under management. The reported MER information has been extracted from the Company’s annual consolidated financial
statements, which have been the subject of an audit pursuant to New Zealand Auditing Standards issued by the External Reporting
Board.
2.5 Treatment of COVID-19 rent relief -prior year restatement
43
•The Group previously recognised rental
abatements on a straight-line basis over
the remaining lease term.
•Recent external interpretation of
accounting standards requires abatements
of past due rent to be recognised
immediately as an impairment of trade
receivables in the income statement.
•FY22 has been restated to reflect rental
abatements as if they were immediately
recognised in the income statement, as
opposed to recognised in investment
properties and amortised against revenue.
•There is no overall impact on FY22 profit
after tax or AFFO from the restatement.

period.
•Retained earnings have been used to
assist development funding, resulting in
a lower dividend payout ratio to AFFO.
•Lower imputation credits arise from the
tax benefit of lower depreciation
expense recovered during the year.
•Despite retaining funds for investment
into future developments and asset
recycling, cash dividends are 7.3%
higher than the four-year average
from FY19.
•The Company has moved from half-
yearly to quarterly dividend payments
during the year.
•The Dividend Reinvestment Plan will be
reinstated for the quarterly dividend
payable in June 2023.

NZX RELEASE
22 May 2023
Record sales and robust rents underpin KPG’s FY23
result
• Net rental income: $203.7m (+13.9%)
• Operating profit before tax: $129.6m (+ 11.3%)
• Net loss after tax: -$227.7m (-201.5%)
• Adjusted funds from operations: $116.5m (+ 16.1%)
• Net tangible assets per share: $1.23 (-14.9%)
• Final dividend: 5.70 cps (+1.8%)
Kiwi Property released its annual results for the year ended 31 March 2023 (FY23) today,
announcing record sales across its mixed-use property portfolio. The company
recorded more than $1.7 billion in sales at Sylvia Park, LynnMall and The Base, up 28.5%
on FY22 and 34.8% on FY19. Sylvia Park’s performance was particularly strong with sales
of $889 million across the precinct, reinforcing its standing as New Zealand’s favourite
shopping centre
1
.
Kiwi Property’s net rental income continued its recent growth, rising 13.9% to $203.7
million in FY23, partially assisted by the final release of COVID-19 rental abatement
accruals. Operating profit before tax increased 11.3% to $129.6 million, while adjusted
funds from operations rose 16.1% to $116.5 million.
Kiwi Property Chief Executive Officer, Clive Mackenzie, said: “Our evolution from a retail
and office landlord to a creator of connected communities continues to gain
momentum. While this transition will take time, we achieved a robust operating
performance over the past year, while simultaneously reshaping our portfolio and
moving the business closer to our goal of becoming a developer, owner and operator
of mixed-use assets at metropolitan town centres.”
The company’s property portfolio was almost entirely leased on 31 March 2023, with
occupancy sitting at 99.3%, reflecting the strong tenant demand for space in Kiwi
Property’s mixed-use and office assets. Rental uplift was similarly robust, with leasing
spreads on rent reviews and new leasing up 5.3% and 4.4% respectively, despite the
challenging economic environment. Kiwi Property’s occupancy cost ratio (a key
measure of specialty retail affordability) decreased to 12.9%, providing substantial
scope to drive growth.
Further to the announcement made by Kiwi Property on 6 March 2023, the fair value of
the company’s investment portfolio decreased by 4.2% or $139.3 million
2
in the second
half of FY23,
driven by rising interest and capitalisation rates. The reduction in asset
values contributed to a full year net loss after tax of $227.7 million.
The Sylvia Park Precinct
3
and The Base proved the most resistant of the company’s
assets to the downward macroeconomic pressure, with fair value decreases of just 1.0%
2
and 2.0%, respectively, over the six months ended 31 March 2023. Capitalisation rate
softening across office assets such as the Vero Centre and ASB North Wharf led to a
6.1% decline in the fair value of the company’s office portfolio during the same period.
“The relative resilience of our key mixed-use assets highlights the strength of these
flagship properties and the merits of our mixed-use strategy overall,” said Mackenzie.
“While the decline in the value of our investment portfolio is disappointing, it is
not
unexpected given the stage of the property cycle and current economic headwinds. By
continuing to drive sales, grow rents and diversify our income streams, we will help mitigate
further valuation decreases and encourage a faster recovery as the market improves.”
Proactive capital management
Kiwi Property continued to progress on its capital recycling programme in FY23,
executing the sale of Northlands Shopping Centre and 44 The Terrace in the second
half of the financial year. Post-balance date, the company also sold the Westgate
Lifestyle Shopping Centre for $85.7 million, with settlement taking place on 1 May 2023.
Kiwi Property’s gearing was 35.0% at the end of FY23, however this figure decreased to
33.3% on a pro-forma basis following the Westgate Lifestyle transaction.
In March, the company overcame a volatile period in the debt capital markets to
complete a successful $125 million Green Bond issue. The heavily oversubscribed offer
enjoyed particularly strong support from retail investors nationwide, highlighting the
breadth and depth of support for Kiwi Property, its mixed-use strategy and strong
sustainability credentials.
“The sale of our non-core properties and recycling of proceeds is a central pillar of our
funding strategy,” said Mackenzie. “Not only do these asset sales provide a low cost of
capital, they also help create a newer, higher quality and lower risk property portfolio.
Strict capital management and ensuring a healthy balance sheet will be a priority in
FY24 as we navigate the tough current operating environment and resulting decline in
property values.”
A disciplined approach to development
Kiwi Property continued to execute on its development roadmap in FY23, completing
the 3 Te Kehu Way office development in March 2023. The distinctive six-level building
has been designed to cater to the requirements of both medical and office tenants
and has attracted interest from a wide range of businesses keen to establish a
presence at Sylvia Park’s growing commercial hub. The previously announced tenants
of Tamaki Health, Horizon Radiology and Regus co-working will also be joined by
Geneva Finance, government agency, Rau Paenga, and CLC Consulting.
Elsewhere at Sylvia Park, the sale of 3.2 hectares of land to IKEA is now unconditional,
while in parallel, work is ongoing on the precinct’s 295 apartment build-to -rent (BTR)
complex. The development’s superstructure is now up to nine floors high and on track
for completion in early FY25. BTR continues to proliferate in markets such as Australia,
where quality BTR apartments attract impressive rents. Kiwi Property expects similar
trends to flow to the New Zealand market, positioning BTR to deliver attractive returns
over time.
3
The company is making significant progress at Drury, where stage one earthworks are
underway and the site’s 13 residential super-lots are now formed, and at grade. Kiwi
Property has a range of options available to fund the development, including the
introduction of capital partners, the sell-down of one or more of the site’s super-lots or
even potentially the release of large format retail sites.
“We are focussed on ensuring a disciplined approach to property development, with a
targeted pipeline of projects underway. Our 125-hectare mixed-use landholding allows
us to dictate the timing of future activity in line with demand, funding and the cost of
capital. Decisions of when, where and how to proceed will always be dictated by the
site’s highest and best use and its ability to create value for our stakeholders,” added
Mackenzie.
Changes to the Kiwi Property Board
Kiwi Property Chair, Mark Ford, will retire as a director of the company at its annual
meeting of shareholders, scheduled for 28 June 2023, when he will be succeeded by
current director, Simon Shakesheff. Mark Powell has also recently resigned as member
of the Kiwi Property Board, effective 19 May 2023.
Mr Ford and Mr Powell will be replaced by Carlie Eve and Peter Alexander. The new
directors will bring a wealth of property and investment experience to the company
and will play a pivotal role in overseeing its ongoing transformation into a creator and
curator of world-class mixed-use communities.
“It has been a pleasure serving on the Kiwi Property Board and I would like to thank our
shareholders for their trust and support. I am extremely pleased that a director of
Simon’s calibre will take over as Chair. His knowledge of the business, intellectual rigour,
and commitment to driving performance will be invaluable as the company enters its
next chapter. He will be ably supported by a highly capable Board that will be made
even stronger by Carlie and Peter’s appointments,” added Ford.
Dividend and guidance
Kiwi Property will pay a cash dividend of 1.425 cents per share for the fourth quarter of
FY23 on 21 June 2023, taking the full-year cash dividend payment to 5.70 cents per
share. The company will also reinstate its Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRP) for the
fourth quarter of FY23. The terms were modified on 19 May 2023 and pricing for this
dividend will now be based on the volume weighted average price for the five trading
days to 12 June 2023. The reintroduction of the DRP will contribute to the organisation’s
multi-facete d capital management programme and enable shareholders to grow their
Kiwi Property holdings at a 2% discount, and without transaction costs.
The company today also confirmed its dividend guidance at 5.70 cents per share for
the 2024 financial year
4,
which Kiwi Property expects to be within its target payout range
of 90-100% of adjusted funds from operations, while still delivering shareholders an
attractive gross dividend yield of 9.5%
5
.
FY24 Outlook
Ford said the company was focused on delivering for stakeholders today while taking
steps to drive the company’s success and returns in the future.
4
“Given the well-documented interest rate and inflation related headwinds facing New
Zealand, maintaining strict financial and operational discipline will be vital to Kiwi
Property’s ongoing performance,” said Ford. “Managing our balance sheet will be an
ongoing priority as we navigate the volatile economic environment and the downward
pressure it is placing on commercial property values.
“We are clear on our way forward and confident of our ability to turn our strategy into
reality. By doing so, we will drive the company’s operational results, promote growth in
our share price and help create greater recognition within the market of Kiwi Property’s
value,” Ford concluded.

We have long- term, locked-in revenues
Our weighted average lease expiry (WALE) indicates how
long, on average, our portfolio income is ‘locked-in’. Our
investment portfolio WALE is 4.4 years, underpinned by our
office portfolio which has a solid WALE of 6.4 years with
long-term leases in place across most of these assets. Our
mixed-use portfolio has a WALE of 3.6 years. Shorter WALEs
on retail properties are expected as this provides us the
opportunity to keep our mix fresh by constantly introducing
new, on-trend retailers or concepts.

ANZ Raranga
ANZ Raranga was completed in December 2018, becoming the
first office tower at Sylvia Park and marking an important step
in the site’s transition into a mixed-use asset. The building is

Kiwi Property Sustainability Report 20233
Kiwi Property made significant
progress in the delivery of our
Sustainability Strategy during the
2023 financial year (FY23), moving us
closer to our sustainability ambition.
Sustainability is central to the way we
work and the decisions we make. The
value creation model on page 10 sets
out how our business strategy delivers
outcomes for our key stakeholder
groups. Sustainability is a strategic
enabler in this process, unlocking
value and mitigating risk. Our strong
Environmental, Social and Governance
(ESG) credentials are recognised by
investors, contributing to the heavy
oversubscription of our recent $125
million Green Bond offer.
Refreshed in FY22, our Sustainability
Strategy has provided a clear focus
for our efforts throughout the year
and reflects our maturing approach.
The strategy outlines key actions and
targets aligned to the United Nations
Sustainable Development Goals
(UNSDGs). Our efforts are governed by
Kiwi Property’s ESG Board Committee
and the ESG Leadership Team.
In FY23, we strengthened our
environmental performance, increasing
the resilience of the portfolio while
also increasing our social impact,
helping to better support and connect
our communities.
The overarching objective of wellbeing
is the driver of our Sustainability
Strategy, enacted through the
three pillars – Places, People and
Partnerships. We have delivered a
range of initiatives this year – from
public art and placemaking, to
celebrations and events – that enhance
the sense of inclusion and belonging
experienced by our customers, tenant
partners, people, and communities.
Our support of the Mental Health
Foundation has created opportunities
to extend our impact on wellbeing in
the communities where we operate.
We are incorporating both wellbeing
and environmental considerations
into the development of our Drury
community, which is targeting a 5 Star
Green Star Communities rating.
Recent extreme weather events have
been devastating to communities
around New Zealand, and we
donated $10,000 to the Red Cross
Disaster Recovery Fund to support
those affected.
While Kiwi Property’s assets were
fortunately largely unaffected by these
events, our objective to become net
carbon negative in our operations by
2030 has increased in importance.
A recently completed climate risk
assessment will guide our efforts to
ensure we are effectively managing and
mitigating these risks over the short,
medium and long term. On page 42, we
have voluntarily reported our climate-
related performance for the second year,
ahead of mandatory reporting in 2024.
Message from the
ESG Committee Chair and
Chief Executive Officer
Clive Mackenzie
Mark Powell
Kiwi Property Sustainability Report 20234
Ngā mihi,
Mark Powell
ESG Committee Chair
Clive Mackenzie
Chief Executive Officer
One of the key sustainability highlights
from FY23 was the expansion of the
Sylvia Park rooftop solar array as part of
our Carbon Reduction Roadmap. Once
completed this array will boost Sylvia
Park’s solar output to a peak capacity of
1.21 MWp and should produce enough
electricity to supply over 50% of Sylvia
Park’s common areas.
Initiatives such as this complement
our long-term commitment to actively
managing our buildings’ performance
and are vital to reducing Kiwi Property’s
environmental footprint. Our focus
on decreasing waste in partnership
with our tenants has been particularly
pleasing. These decisions and
actions, large and small, make
important contributions to our
sustainability goals.
The company’s progress in sustainable
procurement is another highlight from
the past year, with our new Sustainable
Procurement Guidelines evolving our
supplier relationships and bringing us
together to achieve common goals. In
parallel, we have continued to explore
our supply chain to better understand
the risk of modern slavery and the
actions we can take to protect
human rights.
As announced in February, we
farewelled Mark Powell from the
Kiwi Property Board in May, prior
to the release of this report. On
behalf of management, I would like
to acknowledge Mark’s significant
contribution as a Director and our
founding ESG Committee Chair.
We’re pleased to have made significant
progress towards our sustainability
goals, and we wouldn’t have got here
without the commitment of our people
and partners. Thank you for your
hard work and dedication. Significant
sustainability opportunities await us
in FY24 and beyond, as key drivers of
value for our stakeholders. There is a
lot to do and we are excited for what
comes next.

Kiwi Property Sustainability Report 202311
Materiality
At Kiwi Property, we impact and are impacted
by our stakeholders, including our people,
investors, customers, tenant partners and
suppliers, communities, and the environment.
Each year, we conduct an assessment
to understand our material sustainability
topics. We use this assessment to ensure
that the risks and opportunities identified
are addressed by our Sustainability Strategy
and supporting action plans.
We conduct a comprehensive
materiality assessment that includes
engagement with internal and
external stakeholders every three
years and complete a management
review in the intervening years
in consultation with internal
stakeholders.
In FY21, we undertook a comprehensive
materiality assessment to determine
the issues that were most important
to our stakeholders and where we
can have the biggest and most
direct impact. The wellbeing of our
communities – or more specifically,
how best to integrate wellbeing into
the design and development of our
mixed-use assets – was the topic
that resonated most strongly with our
stakeholders. As a result, it became the
focus of our sustainability programme.
We completed management reviews of
our material sustainability topics with
our ESG Leadership Team in FY22 and
FY23 to ensure our efforts continued to
focus on the right topics.
The FY23 review is graphically depicted
on the opposite page, with the highest
ranked topics shown in the top right
quadrant:
1. The wellbeing of our
communities (1)
2. Climate change (6)
3. Reducing waste (5)
4. Efficient use of resources (11)
We will conduct our next
comprehensive materiality assessment
in FY24, using a ‘double materiality’
approach that will engage with
internal and external stakeholders.
Double materiality expands the
traditional ESG materiality lens to
identify and prioritise both financially
material issues, which create or erode
enterprise value, and stakeholder
impact issues, which reflect significant
positive and negative impacts on the
environment, economy, and people.

Sustainability Strategy
Sustainability is a core part of Kiwi Property’s
business strategy and long-term resilience.
This ensures alignment between our
environmental, social, and business decisions
as we work to deliver on our purpose to
create connected communities.
Climate, regulatory, technological,
and societal factors are each key
considerations in our development
and investment decisions, helping
ensure our assets perform for
generations to come. Our proactive
climate-related risk reporting,
prepared with reference to the
recommendations of the Task
Force on Climate-related Financial
Disclosures (TCFD), demonstrates
this approach. Find out more on
page 42 of this report.
Our Sustainability Strategy guides us
in enhancing the wellbeing of people in
and around our places and addressing
our material sustainability topics. It
reflects our belief that our long-term
success is connected to the success of
the communities in which we operate.
Each of the Strategy’s three pillars –
Places, People and Partnerships – sets
key actions and targets, which align to
the UNSDGs. Find out more on pages 18,
26 and 34 of this report.
Wellbeing is central to our
Sustainability Strategy. We have an
opportunity and responsibility to
curate places that are environmentally
and economically sustainable, and
where people feel welcome, cared for,
and connected. This focus on wellbeing
reflects our belief that the places we
create can make a positive and tangible
difference in people’s lives.
Delivery of our Sustainability Strategy
is overseen by our ESG Committee, a
sub-committee of the Board. Find out

Our new developments are shaped by
wellbeing, including our future 5 Green
Star Drury community featured in the
case study below.
Our public art programme continued
in FY23, further enhancing the beauty
and sense of welcome that our places
impart. Art that reflects and represents
the local community entices customers
to visit more often and for longer.
At LynnMall, new artworks complement
the murals that guide customers
through the car parks into the centre.
Te Awa, The Base, customers and
visitors are invited on a self-guided
tour of the Taonga Trail highlighting
architecture and art that showcase the
region’s unique culture and history.
Our ‘spaces between buildings roadmap’
is enhancing how our buildings connect
with nearby streets, transport hubs,
and neighbours. In FY23, we secured
approval for a transit-focused
placemaking project at Sylvia Park (see
case study below). We also developed
a journey plan for future Sylvia Park
IKEA customers in preparation for its
proposed development.
Enhancing the wellbeing of our communities is central to our
Sustainability Strategy, and we bring it to life in many ways.
We incorporate wellbeing into building design and development,
using art to make people feel welcome, create a sense of place
and belonging, and enhance how our buildings connect to their
neighbours and community.

Creating vibrant spaces
at Sylvia Park
We are enhancing the connections
between our growing Sylvia
Park mixed-use precinct and its
neighbouring streets, transport hubs,
and buildings to promote wellbeing.
The $10 million Sylvia Lane dining
precinct transformation, completed in
November 2022, provides customers
with a place to unwind – and brings
new life to the area adjoining the
shopping centre, and the neighbouring
ANZ Raranga office building and newly
opened 3 Te Kehu Way. Home to 12
premium restaurants, cafes and bars,
Sylvia Lane is warm and welcoming,
with sculptural artworks nestled in
green spaces and a kids play area
beneath a striking all-weather roof that
everyone can enjoy.
Our spaces between buildings
roadmap is also shaping how the
future residents of the Sylvia Park
Bult-To-Rent (BTR) precinct interact
with their local neighbourhood. A $3.5
million transit-focused placemaking
project will improve lighting, tree
canopy and landscaping between
the 295-apartment complex and
Sylvia Park train station, creating
an accessible, safe, and enjoyable
connection for commuters when
completed in FY25. As part of the
project we will rejuvenate the stream
nestled between the BTR precinct and
our retail centre, retaining the mature
trees, increasing native plants and
enhancing green space for residents,
shoppers, and visitors to enjoy.
Collaborating to create a
sustainable community
at Drury
We are designing our new Drury
development with sustainability
and wellbeing at its heart, setting
ambitious goals and collaborating with
stakeholders to build a sustainable
community.
Drury is a rare opportunity to build a
town centre from the ground up, with
several developments coming together
to create a community that will be
home to tens of thousands of people in
the years ahead.
We have designed Drury as an
exemplar of sustainable living for
current and future generations. The
project is targeting a 5 Star Green
Star Communities rating from the New
Zealand Green Building Council.
The community is centred around
public transport and walkability,
with the proposed Drury Central
train station close by. Pedestrian-
focused streets will connect people
to transport, homes, workplaces, and
services in the town centre. Future
residents can choose from diverse
housing options, connected to around
10 hectares of new parks, cycleways
and walking paths.
We have collaborated with mana
whenua since 2017 to protect and
enhance the community’s cultural
value, engaging with the 11 relevant Iwi
authorities. Te Aranga Design Principles
are being used to inform the design of
streets and publicly accessible open
spaces, and the Hingaia Creek and
wetlands will be restored to enhance
waterways and ecosystems.

The small actions we take each day are
accumulating to make a big difference
in the years to come. In line with our
Carbon Reduction Plan, we set annual
asset-specific energy saving goals
which progress us towards our long-
term reduction targets. Our water
management programme is making
our buildings more efficient, and today
we use 11% less water compared to our
2012 base year. Our waste management
programme encourages tenant
partners, visitors and customers to
reduce waste and increase recycling,
with our buildings today sending 13%
less waste to landfill than in 2012.
Our Carbon Reduction Plan guides our
emissions reduction initiatives, with a
focus on improved metering to optimise
building performance, replacing fossil
fuels and reducing operational waste.
The Sylvia Park rooftop solar array
expansion has increased our onsite
renewables capacity. Once completed
this array will boost Sylvia Park’s solar
output to a peak capacity of 1.21 MWp
and should produce enough electricity
to supply over 50% of Sylvia Park’s
common areas.
We reduced our building’s consumption
of drinking-quality (or potable) water by
11% in FY23. Proactive maintenance, leak
management, and rainwater harvesting
led to water savings, while new
developments integrate water saving
design and technology.
We recently launched a tenant survey to
understand the satisfaction of our retail
and office partners, and to seek their
feedback on our practices. The survey
is a precursor to a tenant engagement
programme planned for FY24. A pilot
programme is also underway with Waste
Management New Zealand at The Base
to divert all the centre’s food waste
from landfill. These initiatives further
our existing tenant engagement on
sustainability, such as the sustainability
design guidelines included in our
tenancy fitout manuals.
An employee recycling campaign
reduced waste sent to landfill, thanks
to the efforts of our employees, ESG
Champions group, and Executive team.
Portfolio-wide waste reduction was a
priority goal for FY23 and part of the
Executives’ short-term incentive (STI)
goals for the period.
We are committed to achieving our goal of becoming net carbon
negative in our operations by 2030. Today, we produce 55% less
annual operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions than our
baseline year of 2012. Our FY23 total operational emissions were
3,077 tCO
2
-e, which is up on our FY22 emissions as our asset
performance returned to pre-pandemic levels.

Diverting construction
waste from landfill in
development projects
Our commitment to reducing waste
from development projects is delivering
results at two developments in the
Sylvia Park precinct.
At our 3 Te Kehu Way office
development, we collaborated with
lead construction contractor Naylor
Love and primary waste management
contractor Waste Management NZ to
divert an average of 92% (by weight) of
construction waste from landfill during
the project. Taking a collaborative,
planned approach ensures that
materials are sorted on-site so they can
be easily recycled or repurposed.
Similarly, construction waste from
the Sylvia Park BTR precinct is being
recycled or reused instead of going
to landfill, with an average of 98% (by
weight) of waste diverted from landfill
for the year as of January 2023.
Both projects show how construction
waste management plans and effective
partnerships can ensure developments
achieve their waste management
objectives.

Kiwi Property Sustainability Report 202323
We use external industry rating tools
such as Green Star, NABERSNZ and
Homestar to independently assess
the sustainability of our buildings and
developments. These ratings consider
a range of ESG attributes, including a
building’s environmental impact, indoor
environment, and tenant wellbeing.
Our office assets maintained their
minimum 4 star NABERSNZ rating in
FY23, achieving the targets set in our
2021-2025 Sustainability Strategy. The
active management and fine-tuning of
each building helps to retain or improve
their sustainability ratings, while
encouraging optimal performance.
3 Te Kehu Way was completed in
March 2023 on budget with projected
stabilised yield ahead of target. It is
targeting a New Zealand Green Building
Council 6 Star Green Star rating,
which represents ‘world leadership’ in
sustainable buildings.
ESG principles are guiding the
planning and development of our
Drury community, with Green Star,
Homestar and NABERSNZ rating targets
established for the homes and town
centre buildings in this new precinct.
We recently completed a climate risk
assessment to ensure the company has
a comprehensive understanding of the
climate-related risks and opportunities
for our portfolio. The outcomes of this
assessment will inform future capital
investment decisions and increase the
resilience of our portfolio.
We design and construct environmentally sustainable
properties that operate efficiently and attract tenants over
the long term. We achieve this by using best practice design,
materials and building techniques.

Attracting investors with
strong sustainability
credentials
Our sustainability performance allows
us to access ESG-focused capital
markets, issuing a $125 million green
bond in March 2023 for a 6.5-year term.
This followed a successful $150 million
7-year green bond issue in July 2021.
Green bonds are use of proceeds
instruments where borrowed funds are
used for specific sustainability-related
purposes. In the case of our most
recent green bond issue, to finance
or refinance low carbon and energy
efficient buildings.
The green bonds are underpinned
by our Sustainable Debt Framework,
which sets out how we intend to use
sustainable debt and the external
principles and standards we use to
govern their management, reporting
and assurance.
The recent offer received strong
support from investors across
New Zealand, who were attracted
by Kiwi Property’s strong ESG
credentials, resulting in the offer being
oversubscribed by $25 million beyond
the initial $100 million offer.

social engagement. Initiatives such
as KiwiFit exercise groups, KiwiBubs
parents club, our ‘Match Hero’ support

shared their career journeys with our
people on International Women’s Day.
The panel discussed their experiences,
the challenges they’ve overcome, and
the importance of supporting and
uplifting women in the workplace.
We are working to better understand

Celebrating days of
significance
Our places are part of the local
community, so it’s important we
celebrate days of significance with our
customers and our people.
We marked the first national Matariki
holiday with spectacular star-themed
experiences at our buildings during
June and July in celebration of
the Māori New Year. An immersive
educational virtual reality experience
guided customers at The Base
through the Matariki story and the
meaning of each star. LynnMall
customers journeyed along a star
walk and celebrated with Kapa Haka
performances.
Our buildings lit up for the Diwali
festival of lights in October. A lotus
flower trail wound through Sylvia Park
explaining each day of the festival,
Centre Place displayed interesting
festival facts, and our people came
together in our workplaces. The Lunar
New Year brought lion dances to our
centres in celebration of the Year of the
Rabbit during January and February,
and our people shared what Lunar New
Year means to them at a staff event and
on our social media channels.
Celebrating these days of significance
with our people and our customers
highlights our commitment

We survey our employees at least
annually to understand their sentiment
around workplace matters such
as leadership, wellbeing, flexibility,
recognition, and health and safety.
The resulting score is our key metric
for tracking employee engagement.
We analyse the results to understand
how engagement varies across
the business, identify focus areas,
and inform action plans to address
challenges, where required.
Kiwi Property’s employee engagement
rose to 70% in FY23, a 5% increase on
our FY22 score.
The care and support people receive
from their leaders, particularly in
the areas of wellbeing and working
flexibly, and understanding how their
work contributes to Kiwi Property’s
success were key engagement drivers.
Areas where employees told us we
can improve are recognition, career
development, and enhancing the
employee connection to our purpose.
We developed new leadership, talent,
and diversity, equity, and inclusion
strategies during the year. We are
working collaboratively with our people
to develop new corporate values and
intend to launch these in early 2024.
More than 150 people participated in

Safety is an important contributor to
wellbeing. We take our duty of care for
the safety and wellbeing of our people
and the community very seriously,
and work with our supplier partners
to continually test and improve safety
systems in our workplace and our
assets. We are also involved in the NZ
Security Roundtable which includes the
NZ Police, other landlords, and retailers,
who have come together to collectively
implement security initiatives to ensure
the wellbeing of customers, tenants and
their staff.
All of our sites are covered by our
certified Health and Safety Management
System. Health and safety is fully
integrated into our governance and
management practices and reported to
our Executive team and the Board.
In FY23, we reviewed our performance
against the Protective Safety
Requirements for physical security
– the New Zealand Government’s
security framework, which we consider
best practice – to identify ways to
continually improve our physical
security systems, processes, and
governance at our buildings.
We continued to partner with Be.Lab,
Accessibility Tick, and the Safe Space
Alliance during the year, collaborating
to enhance our assets to ensure that
people from diverse groups and with
diverse needs can access and enjoy
our places.
Our support for the Mental Health
Foundation sparked several successful
wellbeing initiatives during FY23. We
share a common goal – to create
places where people can thrive and
be happy – and with this in mind,
we brought several mental health
campaigns into our buildings and
workplaces to raise awareness and
funds for the Foundation. Find out more
in the case study below.
Supporting the wellbeing of the diverse groups in and around
our communities requires specialist knowledge and expertise.
We proudly partner with leading mental health, diversity, and
accessibility organisations to ensure we maximise our impact
and create positive change.

Supporting the Mental
Health Foundation
The Mental Health Foundation is a key
partner in our efforts to enhance the
wellbeing of our customers, employees,
tenant partners and communities
where we operate. During the year,
we supported several mental health
campaigns to raise awareness of the
Foundation’s mission and work.
In May, we supported Pink Shirt Day
to take a stand against bullying and
celebrate diversity and inclusion.
Customers, tenant partners, and
employees formed a sea of pink shirts
across our buildings, workplaces, and
social media channels. Our Facebook
and Instagram activity reached over
150,000 customers with 10,000 people
engaging with the content.
The Mullet Matters campaign kept
barbers busy, with supporters growing
their hair to create the iconic hairstyle
and raise funds for the Foundation.
The campaign culminated in ‘shave in’
events during March to complete the
look. We supported the campaign by
matching nearly $17,000 in donations
and the campaign raised $110,000
overall to fund the Foundation’s free
mental health resources.
We encouraged our employees to build
their mindfulness skills for wellbeing
during Mindfulness Month in August.
Our people attended workshops to
learn tools and techniques to support
healthier, happier lives at work and
beyond. The Mental Health Foundation
provided daily podcasts and other
mental health resources, including a
beautiful journal to capture and reflect
on the mindfulness journey.
Kiwi Property Sustainability Report 202337
With the pandemic’s operational
impact subsiding, we created and
curated vibrant in-person customer
and tenant experiences in our assets.
Activations and events, such as cultural
celebrations and promotions, enticed
people to our office buildings and retail
centres to participate and connect
with colleagues and the community.
For example, our Better Together social
connection campaign encouraged
shoppers to look after their wellbeing
while also supporting our food and
beverage tenant partners.
During the year, we developed a tenant
ESG engagement programme to
harness our tenants’ growing interest
in sustainability. Working together to
reduce our environmental impact and
support our communities will help
both Kiwi Property and our office and
retail tenant partners to achieve our
sustainability goals. The programme
began in late FY23 and will continue
into FY24.
Our tenants play a pivotal role in our success. They provide
our customers with their everyday essentials and little luxuries,
places to dine with friends and whanau, and exceptional
places to work. We partner with our tenants to create
outstanding environments that are sustainable, successful,
and meet our customers’ needs.

Tenant ESG programme
connects ambitions and
actions
Sustainability is becoming increasingly
important to businesses in all sectors
of the economy, including our tenant
partners. Our ability to achieve ESG
goals is interconnected: our buildings’
performance can help tenants reach
their goals, for example relating to
energy use, while our tenants’ decisions
and behaviour contribute to our goals,
such as waste reduction.
Our new tenant ESG engagement
programme formalises our approach to
partnering with tenants and will foster
greater collaboration on sustainability
initiatives. Through a tenant survey, we
will learn more about each tenant’s
view of sustainability and how we can
work together.
The programme will also establish
communication channels for each
asset, where we can share our
sustainability initiatives, how they
benefit tenants, and how tenants can
contribute to their success as part of
regular conversations about what’s
working and what can be improved.
We will continue to develop and refine
the programme as we learn from each
other. By partnering with our tenants to
enhance sustainability performance,
we can create shared value for our
stakeholders.
Kiwi Property Sustainability Report 202339
Our procurement practices assess
full-life cost when purchasing major
plant and equipment for our assets
(including usage and disposal costs)
to ensure they support our energy
reduction targets and reduce
operational costs.
Our supply chain is the thread
that connects Kiwi Property to our
employees, partners, customers,
and suppliers. We are committed to
upholding human rights both within
our own operations and in our supply
chain. This means complying fully with
the law, and going above and beyond
compliance – acting professionally,
ethically, and responsibly as we
create shareholder value and deliver
outcomes for stakeholders.
Following the introduction of our
Sustainable Procurement Guidelines
in FY22, we developed a Sustainable
Procurement Action Plan to further
integrate ESG considerations into our
procurement practices. The Action
Plan prioritises decarbonisation, the
elimination of modern slavery, and
accessibility as areas where our
procurement can have the greatest
impact across our supply chain while
simultaneously complementing
contract-specific sustainability goals,
such as waste management for cleaning
contractors and construction partners.
We furthered our understanding of
modern slavery risks in our supply
chain during FY23, completing several
key initiatives in consultation with our
ESG Leadership Team, Executive Team,
and ESG Committee. A risk assessment
of our level one suppliers enabled us to
understand potential modern slavery
risks in our tier one supply chain and
identify opportunities to strengthen
our existing risk controls.
We developed a Modern Slavery
Roadmap to guide our efforts to
address this complex issue and
will incorporate modern slavery
considerations into our sustainable
procurement activities where
feasible. Find out more in the case
studies below.
Guided by our Sustainable Procurement Guidelines, we use our
purchasing power to partner with suppliers to achieve better
environmental and social outcomes from our projects and the
products and services we use.

Sustainable Procurement
Guidelines deepen supplier
relationships
Our Sustainable Procurement
Guidelines are generating
conversations with our supplier
partners about our sustainability goals
and expectations, and how we can work
together to achieve them.
The guidelines were introduced to our
cleaning and security supplier partners,
two of our largest supplier contracts,
in FY22. The resulting discussions have
enriched our relationships and ways
of working.
The guidelines are informing decision-
making in procurement and being used
in major tenders to demonstrate the
value we place not just on price, but
also holistic supplier performance.
A roadmap for our journey to
address modern slavery risks
Modern slavery exploits vulnerable
people in situations they are unable
to leave, such as forced labour, debt
bondage, and human trafficking.
4
Eliminating modern slavery is a
complex global challenge. We aim to
support long-term systemic change
throughout our supply chains to reduce
the risk of modern slavery practices.
In FY23, we conducted a modern
slavery risk assessment to better
understand the risk of modern slavery
in our tier one supply chain. The
assessment considered the latest
research on modern slavery globally
and in New Zealand, including case
and prosecution data, and interpreted
national-level and sector-specific
risks in the context of our operations,
locations, and supply chain. The
assessment also reviewed our existing
risk controls to identify how they could
be strengthened for our specific risks.
The assessment determined that
modern slavery risk was low in our
direct operations and workforce,
due to existing employer-employee
regulations. As a participant in the
property sector, modern slavery risks
do exist in our supply chain, particularly
in the medium-to-high risk areas of
construction (for new development
projects), and security and cleaning (for
operating assets).
This assessment is part of the Board-
approved Modern Slavery Roadmap
we developed to guide our efforts in
this area. In FY24, we will undertake
training for our Facilities Management
and operational teams, and design and
deliver a Supplier Code of Conduct as
part of the Sustainable Procurement
Action Plan. In FY25 we will prepare
a deeper dive information collection
effort and risk assessment for our
supply chains.

Climate-related reporting
As one of the country’s largest property
companies, we have an opportunity to lead
on environmental sustainability by building
high-performing, resilient assets that meet
the future needs of our communities.
We recognise the importance of building
resilience to climate change into our business
and portfolio.
This section explains our FY23
approach to climate scenario analysis,
details our top climate-related risks
and opportunities, and explains what
we’re doing in response. Our focus
on asset resilience, our commitment
to achieve net negative operational
emissions by 2030, and our strong
track record of sustainability positions
us well to navigate the uncertainty
presented by climate change.
This information has been prepared on
a voluntary basis with reference to the
recommendations of the Task Force on
Climate-related Financial Disclosures
(TCFD). This is our second voluntary
climate disclosure. We will release
our first report under the External
Reporting Board mandatory climate-
related disclosures in FY24.

Governance
Sylvia Park
Kiwi Property Sustainability Report 202343
At present, our climate-related risks
are managed in alignment with our
Risk Management Framework, which
is aligned to the principles of ISO
31000:2018. Climate change is listed
on our key risk register, which has
resulted in the development of control
measures and detailed discussion
of climate risk at leadership and
Board levels.
For our detailed climate risk
assessment, completed in FY23, we
engaged external consultants to
guide us through an exploratory and
deliberative process. The process
involved two workshops with our ESG
Leadership Team, before confirming
the workings and results with our
Executive team.
We considered a set of climate
scenarios, which were informed
industry-specific scenarios that are
being collaboratively developed for
use under New Zealand’s incoming
mandatory reporting regime in 2024, as
well as several other data points.
Exploring these scenarios enabled us
to generate insights on the resilience of
our strategy under an uncertain future.
We used the scenarios to generate a
longlist of climate-related risks and
opportunities. We identified 12 potential
risks and 6 potential opportunities,
which were later reviewed, and for
the risks, evaluated using our risk
management framework. To evaluate
each risk, members of Kiwi Property’s
ESG Leadership Team selected scores
from 1 to 5 for the likelihood and
consequence. These provisional results
were subsequently confirmed by the
Executive Team.
Our climate risks are also evident
at asset-level. In FY22, we selected
three assets – one retail, one office,
one mixed-use – across two cities
and conducted a process to evaluate
climate-risks for each of these
assets. In FY24, we will complete a
comprehensive risk assessment at
asset level across our portfolio, to
complement the risk assessment
undertaken at portfolio level.
We also conduct environment and
climate change reviews as part of the
due diligence process for the purchase
of new assets. Environmental and
climate risk data are requested from
the seller, assets are benchmarked
against Kiwi Property’s other assets,
and we assess opportunities for
buildings to be brought up to our
standards. This information informs
recommendations to the Board on
potential purchases, which are decided
based on numerous strategic, financial,
and non-financial factors. Climate
change risks, environmental impact and
building efficiency add to the overall
decision as non-financial factors.

Scenarios
As outlined above, in FY23 we used
three climate scenarios to explore the
future effects of climate change on our
business and the property sector more
generally. The purpose of the scenarios
was to provide a set of coherent,
plausible stories to prompt creative
thought and insights about the risks
companies such as ours could face in an
array of possible future states.
To capture both physical and transition
climate risks, consistent with both the
TCFD’s recommendations and the
mandatory disclosure requirements of
NZ’s new reporting regime, the three
scenarios combined:
• Physical climate parameters taken
from the International Panel on
Climate Change’s (IPCC) set of
scenarios, downscaled to New
Zealand’s situation (courtesy the
Ministry for the Environment’s 2018
climate projections), and
• Socio-economic and policy
parameters drawn from multiple other
sources, including the IPCC’s Shared
Socio-economic Pathways, the
Network for Greening the Financial
System scenarios, the International
Energy Agency’s World Energy
Outlook and He Pou a Rangi’s (the
NZ Climate Commission) transition
scenarios.
The following graphic summarises the
key elements of each scenario used.

Resilience
Broadly speaking, Kiwi Property’s
business strategy is to develop a
portfolio of large, mixed-use property
precincts in major urban ‘node’
locations. There is already pressure,
including from anchor tenants, to work
to keep improving the resilience and
environmental performance of our
existing assets and new developments.
We expect this only to continue as
awareness of possible climate impacts
grows. Regulatory changes, including
mandatory changes to building
standards and carbon pricing, will
affect our portfolio along with all other
property companies. Under both an
orderly and disorderly transition to
a low-carbon economy, competition
for scarce resources – eco-friendly
technologies and materials, resilient
assets, and well-protected locations
– could well be expected. Even in the
third, horrifying scenario of a hothouse
world, where current policies are
extended into the future though not
ramped up, some of these pressures
may yet emerge. Our tenants’ current
demands for resilient assets will only
be greater if the physical impacts of
climate change are allowed to escalate
uninterrupted.
All in all, our strategy remains sound
across these scenarios, with a focus on
mixed-use as an inherently sustainable
asset type. Our efforts to develop and
upgrade to high-performing, resilient
assets are sound in both a sustainability
and a commercial sense. We have the
ability to avoid purchasing assets where
the costs of improving resilience and
environmental performance are too high.
Our material climate risks
Using the scenarios above, as well as analysis of our peers and competitors in New
Zealand, Australia, the UK and US, we generated a longlist of 12 climate-related risks
for Kiwi Property. We then used the process described in Risk Management (above)
to determine our top climate risks.
Climate risks are identified across three time-horizons – short, medium, and long –
defined according to the nature of our business.
0-3 years
Short-term
3-10 years
Medium-term
10-30 years
Long-term
Our short-term time
horizon of 0-3 years is
aligned with our Risk
Management Framework
and focused on cost
reduction opportunities
and meeting
organisational priorities,
such as installing solar
arrays where applicable
at our assets.
Our medium-term time
horizon of 3-10 years
reflects the typical
tenant lease cycle (6-12
years). This is also the
timeframe over which
substantial upgrades to
buildings are planned and
delivered.
Our long-term time
horizon of 10-30 years
reflects building life
expectancy (typically up
to 50 years).
The following table presents the seven prioritised climate risks considered to be
most material to Kiwi Property’s business.

Our material climate opportunities
Following the TCFD’s guidance on climate related opportunities, Kiwi Property’s
ESG Leadership Team and Executive Team also identified six climate related
opportunities in line with the three scenarios. Kiwi Property prioritised three
among the six climate related opportunities identified.
The table below presents the prioritised three climate opportunities considered
to be most material to Kiwi Property’s business.
Kiwi Property Sustainability Report 202349
Metrics
and targets
In 2017 we set a target to reduce
absolute emissions by 4.2% year on
year from a 2012 baseline, equating
to a 43% reduction by 2025, a 54%
reduction by 2030 and an 80%
reduction by 2050. These targets
included Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions.
Our carbon programme has already
reduced emissions from 6,834
tCO
2
-e (adjusted 2012 baseline)
to 3,077 tCO
2
-e, a reduction of
(3,757) tCO
2
-e (-55%).
To align with IPCC-based
recommendations for limiting
global warming to under 1.5 degrees
Celsius, we further revised our
targets downward and in 2021 we
committed to achieving net carbon
negative in our operations by 2030.

Emissions per NLA
Emission per net lettable area (NLA) is used as Kiwi Property’s intensity
measure to allow like for like comparisons, between different sized buildings.
NLA is the amount of space (m2) in a building available for leasing.
In FY23, greenhouse gas emissions per NLA have reduced by 58% since 2012,
from 17. 2kCO
2
e per NLA (2012) to 7.3kCO
2

Tenant electricity use is outside of our operational control and not currently
accounted for in our Scope 3, though it does comprise a significant volume
of emissions. We therefore have several approaches to support our tenants
to reduce their electricity use, including a set of (non-mandatory) Fitout
Guidelines for ensuring sustainable fitouts.

COVID-19 had a significant impact on Kiwi Property’s operations over FY21 and FY22
making it difficult to meaningfully compare the key metrics across those years.
All data in this document is for the year ended and/or as at 31 March 2023. Due to
rounding, numbers within this report may not add up precisely to the totals provided
and percentages may not precisely reflect the absolute figures.
