Reshaping our portfolio
Kiwi Property has a comprehensive
strategy targeting attractive long-
term results for investors through the
company’s ownership, development and
management of a portfolio of high-
quality real estate assets.
The foundation of this strategy is a
focus on creating and curating retail-led
mixed-use properties at key transport
nodes. Sylvia Park, LynnMall and Drury
sit at the heart of three of Auckland’s
11 metropolitan town centres, placing
them in a prime position to benefit from
the signi
ficant population and economic
growth that is forecast for those areas
over the coming decades.
Our mixed-use centres all enjoy
excellent public transport connectivity.
Not only does this proximity to trains
and buses help attract people to our
centres, but based on international
precedent, we’re expecting strong
valuation and rental uplift to occur in
and around these assets as they densify
with commuters.
The company is focused on the
optimisation of our property portfolio,
with the aim of creating a higher quality
asset base. T
o this end, we completed
the sale of Northlands and 44 The
Terrace in FY23 and, in 1H24 disposed of
Westgate Lifestyle and the Sylvia Park
IKEA site, raising an additional $127.1
million.
By
selling our non-core, capital-intensive
assets and reinvesting the proceeds into
opportunities such as Drury and build-
to
-rent (BTR), we will help build a greener,
h
igher quality, more resilient, and lower-
risk portfolio. While this capital recycling
has resulted in a temporary decline in
r
evenue, we are confident the steps
we’re taking will result in greater tenant
demand, higher rents, and improved
returns for our shareholders.
Kiwi Property experienced a 16.2%
reduction in net rental income to $89.1
million following the asset sales outlined
above, coupled with the impact of
abatement accruals released
in the prior
period. Operating profit before tax
was similarly affected, declining 26.7%
to $52.4 million, while adjusted funds
from operations (AFFO) contracted
25.4% to $48.6 million.
When viewed on a like-for-like basis
2
,
however, a more balanced picture
emerges, showing a 2.5% increase in net
rental income, while AFFO decreased
marginally by 0.2% and operating profit
before tax declined 1.0%, due to rising
interest costs.

CAPITAL RECYCLED 1H24
When we began our strategic
transformation from primarily a
shopping centre and office landlord
to the creator and curator of retail-led
mixed-use communities, we said it
would take time. As a result of the delays
caused by COVID-19, the process has
been slower than we intended or would
have ideally liked. Pleasingly, however,
the company is moving quickly towards
its next strategic milestone, with the
opening of our first BTR development,
unlocking an important new revenue
stream and initiating the next stage
of the company’s evolution.
Driving rental growth
Tenants at our retail and mixed-use
centres achieved a record-high $2.1
billion in sales
3
in the 12 months to
September 30 2023, an increase of
14.9% on the prior year. The Sylvia Park
precinct
4
led from the front once again,
delivering sales growth of 18.1% to $915
million, while The Base sustained its
recent momentum to produce sales of
$523 million, up 15.6%. This escalation is
particularly noteworthy given the tough
financial climate, reflecting the resilience
of our property portfolio.
4.5%
MIXED-USE RENTAL
GROWTH
New Zealand faced a
challenging economic
environment in the six
months to 30 September
2023 (1H24), with
inflationary and interest
rate pressures contributing
to high living costs and
diminished consumer
confidence. Despite these
headwinds, our assets
performed well in the first
half of the financial year,
enabling us to grow rents
and confirm our full-year
dividend guidance of 5.70
cents per share
1
.
1. Dividend guidance and payments are contingent
on the company’s financial performance through
the financial year and barring material adverse
events or unforeseen circumstances.
2.
Like-for-like results exclude the impact of asset
sales and COVID-19 adjustments.
3.
Moving annual t
otal to 30 September 2023.
4. Sylvia Park Precinct includes Sylvia Park Shopping
Centre, 3 Te Kehu Way, ANZ Raranga, Sylvia Park
Lifestyle and adjoining properties.
General note: Refer to the Interim Results
Presentation for the six months ended 30
September 2023 for the definition and
determination of sales and the non-GAAP
performance measures, net rental income and
operating profit before tax. Comparative figures
relate to the 1H23 period unless otherwise stated.
Kiwi Property Interim Report FY243
Kiwi Property Interim Report FY243
The strong sales performance across our
centres enabled us to drive robust rental
growth in 1H24, achieving an uplift on
new leases and rent reviews across our
mixed-use and office assets of 4.5% and
3.5%, respectively. We completed almost
350 leasing transactions in the period
with new office leases the standout,
rising well ahead of inflation at 13.9%. The
relationship with our tenants remains as
positive as ever, as shown by the 11 basis
point improvement in Kiwi Property’s net
promoter score since March 2023. It’s
perhaps not surprising then that our
assets were almost fully occupied at
the end of the period, with vacancy of
just 1.2%.
Valuations in focus
On 30 September 2023, our property
portfolio was valued at $3.1 billion, a
fair value decrease of 2.5% or $81.1
million from 31 March 2023, driven by a
softening of capitalisation rates. While
global headwinds saw the valuation of
our office portfolio decrease 5.9% or
$52.4m, our mixed-use assets were
more resistant, declining just 1.1%
or $21.3 million. The decline in asset
values contributed to a net loss after
tax of $36.5 million.
The reduction in the value of our
investment portfolio is disappointing,
although not unexpected, given the
current stage of the property cycle.
On a more positive note, it’s pleasing
to see the continued resilience of our
mixed-use asset values, where rental
growth has helped offset capitalisation
rate softening. For example, The Base
increased in value by 3.7% for the
period, defying the softening of property
prices commonly seen elsewhere
in New Zealand’s commercial and
residential property sectors.
Growing income and AFFO
through development
Construction of Kiwi Property’s BTR
development at Sylvia Park continued in
1H24, with the building’s three structures
topped off in August 2023 and earning
an 8 Homestar design rating. Work is
now underway on fit-outs of the 295
studio, one, two and three-bedroom
apartments ahead of a scheduled
opening from May 2024. Our BTR brand,
Resido will be released to consumers
over the coming weeks and will be
advertised across a range of channels
and consumer touch points to help
stimulate tenant demand.
The sharp rise in net migration,
coupled with high borrowing costs
and a decline in building consents, are
expected to drive demand for rental
accommodation in the short to medium
term, accelerating growth in the BTR
sector. We intend to be at the forefront
of that growth, with our development
at Sylvia Park providing the opportunity
to ‘prove up’ the concept to the market,
build investor confidence and stimulate
interest from the range of capital
partners seeking a foothold in the sector.
Elsewhere, earthworks have resumed
at Drury, with the development of
the site’s residential and large format
retail precincts progressing well. We’re
currently in discussions with a range of
home builders and big-box retailers
about potential opportunities, including
the purchase of super-lots. Our
objective is to maximise the returns
from stage one land sales to help fund
our ownership and development of the
Drury town centre (stage two), where
our expertise in community creation will
enable us to unlock the greatest value.
Proactive capital management
The delivery of our exciting Sylvia Park
BTR and Drury developments is a priority
for the business. So too, is the effi
cient
funding of these projects. We remain
focused on securing capital partners
to fund major new developments and
accelerate the growth of the business.
In the current economic climate, where
asset values have decreased and
interest costs have risen, maintaining the
strength and flexibility of our balance
sheet are important considerations.
To this end, we have
taken several steps
over recent periods to put the company
i
n an even more resilient financial
position, including asset sales and
b
eing disciplined about non-essential
capital expenditure. In October 2023,
the company also amended its bond
gearing covenant from
45% to 50%, in
a move that was supported by 99.8%
of voting bondholder
s. The amendment
aligns Kiwi Property with other listed
property companies while also ensuring
consistency across our bond and banking
c
ovenants. Kiwi Property’s gearing was
35.3% on 30 Septembe
r 2023.

Sustained ES
G progress
The company made further progress on
our sustainability agenda in 1H24, as we
continue pushing towards our ambition
of being net carbon negative in our
operations by 2030.
In October, Kiwi Property was awarded a
score of 79 out of 100 by the Global Real
Estate Sustainability Benchmark,
re
flecting the company’s strong ESG
credentials. As part of our focus on
increasing the wellbeing of people in and
around our communities, we also
recently launched an innovative
campaign designed to bring Kiwis
together and connect over a cup of
coffee. Over 8,000 people participated
in the initiative, raising funds for the
Mental Health Foundation and driving
sales for our food and beverage retailers.
Dividend and outlook
Kiwi Property will pay a cash dividend
of 1.425 cents per share for the second
quarter of FY24 on 20 December 2023,
taking the total interim cash dividend
payment to 2.85 cents per share.
The Dividend Reinvestment Plan will not
operate this quarter and will be
reassessed on a quarterly basis. We’re
committed to delivering for our
shareholders and recognise the
importance of maintaining and
ultimately growing AFFO and our
dividend. As such, we’re pleased to
advise our full-year dividend guidance
remains unchanged at 5.70 cents per
share
1
for FY24 despite the challenging
economic conditions, and expect this
figure to be within our target payout
ratio of 90-100% of AFFO.
While recent asset sales have seen
a decline in the business’ total revenue,
it’s encouraging that our diversifi
ed
portfolio has performed solidly on a
like-for-like basis. Retail continues
to exceed many commentators’
expectations, and the growth in our
leasing spreads, and pedestrian counts
are a testament to t
he resilience of our
leading mixed-use assets.
Heading into the second half of the
financial year, we’re focussed on closely
managing our balance sheet, driving
business efficiency, and executing our
transformation into a retail-led mixed-
use community creator. Completing the
Sylvia Park BTR scheme, progressing
earthworks at Drury and securing
capital to support our strategic
ambitions are vital to building market
support and growing our share price.
By delivering on these priorities and
continuing to increase earnings, we will
help drive value and boost returns for
you, our shareholders.
Thank you for your support.

Practice (NZ GAAP) and comply with New Zealand Equivalents to International Accounting Standards (NZ IAS) 34 Interim Financial
Reporting and International Accounting Standards (IAS) 34 Interim Financial Reporting. These interim consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in the 2023 annual report.
The interim consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 30 September 2023 are unaudited. Comparative balances
for 30 September 2022 are unaudited, whilst the comparative balances for the year ended 31 March 2023 are audited. Certain

Kiwi Property Interim Report FY2416
1.4 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.
The following tables summarise the impact of this change in accounting policy on the comparative consolidated financial statements:

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.

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 (31 March 2023: Level 3) in the fair value hierarchy
because all significant inputs that determine fair value are not based on observable market data.
Valuation process
In line with the Group’s valuation policy, independent desktop reviews of investment property values were performed at
30 September 2023 for The Base, Centre Place North, Sylvia Park Lifestyle, Resido Lynton build-to-rent (Resido Lynton),
Drury development land and other adjoining industrial assets within the Sylvia Park Precinct. Full independent valuations were
performed for all other investment properties by independent valuers who are members of the Group’s valuation panel and the
New Zealand Institute of Valuers. The desktop reviews were completed by the same independent valuers who completed full
independent valuations at
31 March 2023.
No independent valuations were performed for the adjoining residential properties within the Sylvia Park Precinct, which are
presented at their 31 March 2023 independent valuations, adjusted for capital expenditure over the period as appropriate. This
represents the Directors’ best estimate of fair value at 30 September 2023. The Group has also internally assessed the value of
a recently purchased adjoining industrial asset. Where a contracted sale price is available, the investment property held for sale
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. At 31 March 2023,
all properties were carried at external valuation or contract price as applicable, except for a small number of non-core residential
properties which were subject to a kerbside assessment performed by an independent registered valuer that is a member of
the New Zealand Institute of Valuers.
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 and made deductions for seismic strengthening works.
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 30 September 2023, being the
Resido Lynton 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 and desktop reviews 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 Interim Report FY2423
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 $42.1 million (31 March 2023: $48.2 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 30 September 2023
For the period ended 30 September 2023, the Group reported a fair value loss of $81.1 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.
Kiwi Property Interim Report FY2424
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.
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.

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.

Recognition and measurement
All interest bearing liabilities are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received, less directly attributable
transaction costs. After initial recognition, they are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate
method whereby the transaction costs are spread over the expected life of the instrument.
Bank loans
The bank loans are provided by ANZ Bank New Zealand, Bank of New Zealand, China Construction Bank Corporation (New Zealand
Branch), Commonwealth Bank of Australia, The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation (HSBC), MUFG Bank, Ltd (Auckland
Branch) and Westpac New Zealand.
In May 2023, the Group decreased the overall bank facilities from $1 billion to $950 million.
The Group is required to comply with certain financial covenants in respect of its interest bearing liabilities. During the six months
ended 30 September 2023 and year ended 31 March 2023, the Group was in compliance with all of its financial covenants.

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 (31 March 2023: Level 2). 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 30 September 2023
of between 5.74% for the 90-day BKBM and 5.18% for the 10-year swap rate (31 March 2023: 5.23% and 4.30%, respectively).

Independent auditor's
review report
TO THE SHAREHOLDERS OF KIWI PROPERTY GROUP LIMITED
Kiwi Property Interim Report FY2431
Conclusion
We have reviewed the consolidated interim financial statements (‘interim financial statements’) of Kiwi Property Group Limited
(‘the Company’) and its controlled entities (‘the Group’) which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at
30 September 2023, and the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, statement of changes in equity and statement of
cash flows for the six months ended on that date, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information
on pages 9 to 30.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim financial statements of the Group do
not present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as at 30 September 2023 and its financial performance
and cash flows for the six months ended on that date in accordance with NZ IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and IAS 34 Interim
Financial Reporting.
Basis for conclusion
We conducted our review in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) Review of Financial Statements Performed by the Independent
Auditor of the Entity (‘NZ SRE 2410 (Revised)’). Our responsibilities are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Review
of the Interim Financial Statements section of our report.
We are independent of the Group in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements in New Zealand relating to the audit of the
annual financial statements, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.
Other than in our capacity as auditor, we have no relationship with or interests in Kiwi Property Group Limited or its controlled entities.
Directors' responsibility for the interim consolidated financial statements
The directors are responsible on behalf of the Company for the preparation and fair presentation of the interim financial statements
in accordance with NZ IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and for such internal control as the
directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation and fair presentation of the interim financial statements that are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the review of the interim consolidated financial statements
Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the interim financial statements based on our review. NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) requires
us to conclude whether anything has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim financial statements, taken
as a whole, are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with NZ IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and IAS 34 Interim
Financial Reporting.
A review of the interim financial statements in accordance with NZ SRE 2410 (Revised) is a limited assurance engagement. We perform
procedures, primarily consisting of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and
applying analytical and other review procedures. The procedures performed in a review are substantially less than those performed
in an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand) and consequently do not enable us to
obtain assurance that we might identify in an audit. Accordingly we do not express an audit opinion on the interim financial statements.
Restriction on use
This report is made solely to the company’s shareholders, as a body. Our review has been undertaken so that we might state to the
company’s shareholders those matters we are required to state to them in a review report and for no other purpose. To the fullest
extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company’s shareholders as a body, for
our engagement, for this report, or for the conclusions we have formed.

NZX RELEASE

KPG drives robust performance amid strategic
transformation
•Net rental income: $89.1m (-16.2%. +2.5% like-for-like)
•Operating profit before tax: $52.4m (-26.7%. -1.0% like-for-like)
•Net loss after tax: -$36.5m (+75.8%. +76.6% like-for-like)
•Adjusted funds from operations: $48.6m (-25.4%. -0.2% like-for-like)
•Net tangible assets per share: $1.17 (-4.9%)
•Interim dividend: 2.85 cents per share (+0%)
K
iwi Property released its interim results for the six months ended 30 September 2023
(1H24) today, announcing a robust asset performance and further momentum on its
portfolio transformation programme, despite economic headwinds.
B
uilding a stronger portfolio
T
he company made solid progress on its strategy of creating and curating retail-led
mixed-use properties at key transport nodes in 1H24. The location and favourable
zoning of key strategic assets including Sylvia Park, LynnMall, The Base and Drury are
expected to accelerate their densification and growth, helping to boost valuations and
performance over time.
K
iwi Property’s asset sales programme delivered over $127 million in 1H24, following the
disposal of Westgate Lifestyle and the Sylvia Park IKEA site. Chief Executive Officer, Clive
Mackenzie, said the company’s capital recycling activity would help create a higher
quality and more profitable asset base.
“
By disposing of our non-core, capital-intensive assets and reinvesting the proceeds into
opportunities such as Drury and build-to -rent, we will build a greener, more resilient and
lower-risk portfolio. While this capital recycling activity has resulted in a temporary
decline in revenue, the steps we’re taking will promote greater tenant demand, better
rents, lower seismic costs and improved returns for our shareholders.”
F
inancial performance
K
iwi Property experienced a 16.2% reduction in net rental income to $89.1 million in
1H24 following the aforementioned asset sales, while operating profit before tax
decreased 26.7% to $52.4 million and adjusted funds from operations (AFFO) was down
25.4% to $48.6 million.
W
hen viewed on a like-for-like
1
basis however, net rental income rose 2.5%, while AFFO
declined a marginal 0.2%, highlighting the company’s resilience through the first half of
the financial year. Like-for-like operating profit before tax decreased by 1.0%, driven by
higher interest costs.
2
Valuations in focus
Further to the announcement by Kiwi Property on 25 September 2023, capitalisation
rate increases underpinned a 2.5% or $81.1 million reduction in the fair value of the
company's investment portfolio in 1H24. Mixed-use assets were down 1.1% or $21.3
million, while global sector headwinds saw the office portfolio decrease 5.9% or $52.4m.
The decline in asset values contributed to a net loss after tax of $36.5 million. Kiwi
Property’s mixed-use, office, retail and other properties were valued at $3.1 billion as at
30 September 2023.
“The reduction in the value of our investment portfolio is disappointing but reflects the
recent downturn in the property cycle. On a more positive note, it’s encouraging to see
the increased stabilisation of our mixed-used asset values, where rental growth has
helped offset capitalisation rate softening. For example, The Base has defied the
economic conditions to increase in value by 3.7% through the period,” says Mackenzie.
Robust rental and sales growth
Kiwi Property completed almost 350 leasing transactions in the first half of FY24,
delivering a 4.5% total uplift on new mixed-use leases, renewals and rent reviews. New
office leases and renewals were up 13.9%. Kiwi Property’s ability to drive rental growth in
the challenging climate reflects the performance and productivity of its tenancies.
Sales across the company’s mixed-use and retail centres grew 14.9% to $2.1 billion in
the 12 months to 30 September 2023.
Disciplined capital management
Kiwi Property maintained its focus on proactive capital management over recent
months, including amending its bond gearing covenant from 45% to 50% in October
2023, a move supported by 99.8% of voting bondholders. The amendment brings Kiwi
Property in line with other listed property entities in the sector while also providing
consistency across its bond and banking covenants. Kiwi Property’s gearing was 35.3%
on 30 September 2023, up 30bps on FY23.
“We’re committed to maintaining a solid balance sheet and have taken steps over
recent periods to put the company in an even more resilient financial position,
including asset sales a nd being disciplined about non-essential capital expenditure. The
successful delivery of our exciting Sylvia Park BTR and Drury projects remain a priority,
and securing suitable third-party funding will be important for any new major
developments,” says Mackenzie.
Continued progress on build-to-rent
Construction of Kiwi Property’s build-to -rent (BTR) development at Sylvia Park continued
in 1H24, with the building’s three structures topped off in August 2023. Work is underway
on fit-outs of the scheme’s 295 studio, one, two and three-bedroom apartments ahead
of a scheduled opening from May 2024. Strong inbound migration, high borrowing costs
and a decline in building consents are expected to promote demand for rental
accommodation in the short to medium term, accelerating growth in the BTR sector.
3
Kiwi Property will release its new BTR brand, Resido, to the consumer market in the
coming weeks. The aspirational proposition will be advertised across a range of
marketing channels and consumer touch points, helping to stimulate tenant demand.
Kiwi Property expects the lease-up of its Sylvia Park BTR project to take 12-18 months.
Sustained ESG momentum
Kiwi Property made further progress on its sustainability agenda in 1H24, as it continued
towards its ambition of being net carbon negative in its operations by 2030. T he
company was awarded a score of 79 out of 100 by the Global Real Estate Sustainability
Benchmark in October 2023, reflecting its strong ESG credentials. As part of Kiwi
Property’s focus on increasing the wellbeing of people in and around its communities,
the company also recently launched a campaign designed to bring people together
and connect over a cup of coffee. Over 8,000 people participated in the initiative,
raising funds for the Mental Health Foundation and driving sales for Kiwi Property’s food
and beverage retailers.
Dividend and guidance
Kiwi Property will pay a cash dividend of 1.425 cents per share for the second quarter of
FY24 on 20 December 2023, taking the interim cash dividend payment to 2.85 cents per
share. The dividend reinvestment plan will not operate for Q3 FY24 and will be
reassessed by the company on a quarterly basis. Kiwi Property today also reiterated its
dividend guidance at 5.70 cents per share for FY24
2
, which it expects to be within its
target payout range of 90-100% of AFFO.
FY24 Outlook
Kiwi Property Chair, Simon Shakesheff, said: “ We’re pleased to maintain our dividend,
despite the challenging economic conditions, in line with our focus on delivering for our
shareholders. Our like-for-like operational results reflect the resilience of the business,
and it’s encouraging to see leasing spreads and pedestrian counts rising. The retail
sector continues to perform better than many had expected, and we’re well-
positioned to benefit from this trend, given our excellent portfolio of retail-led mixed-use
assets.
“As always, closely managing our balance sheet and executing our strategic
transformation remains a priority. We’re working hard to complete the Sylvia Park BTR
scheme, progress earthworks at Drury and secure the capital to support our ambitions.
By delivering on this agenda and continuing to grow earnings, we will help drive value
and returns for investors.”

1. Stage 1 land receipts and capex allowances reflect the sale of fully serviced super lots. Stage 2 allowances assume the Stage2 land is held
as a single 19.2ha raw development block for future development (i.e. assuming no internal roading or services provision within the Stage 2
land). 2.Land receipts and capex are presented on a real basis, i.e. before inflation allowances. 3. Capex excludes development
management fees and capitalised interest. 4. IRR calculated on a 10-year basis. 5. The annualFY26 – FY29 AFFO impact is calculated based
on the estimated average after-tax profit from Stage 1 land sales over FY26 –FY29, assuming sales at an average of ~$1,050 per sqm. The
number of shares as at 30 September 2023 is held constant and the land sales are assumed to be recorded in revenue and cost of sales for
accounting purposes.

Rent reviews
•High percentage of structured reviews (94%) provided
consistent uplift, averaging +4.0% on a compound
annual basis across the investment portfolio.
New leasing
•New mixed-use leasing was up +4.1% and office
+13.9%, reflecting the quality and demand for space
across our portfolio.
Total
•Mixed-use and office rental spreads were +4.5% and
+3.5% at half-year end respectively, a robust result –
particularly when viewed alongside the continued low
levels of vacancy across the portfolio.
General note 1: 3 Te Kehu Way is excluded from the analysis. This property was completed 31 March 2023 and, as such, there is no
prior rental with which to benchmark rental uplift. General Note 2: Leasing statistics are not adjusted to reflect Kiwi Property’s
ownership interest.
Mixed-use
•Mixed-use expiries remain relatively steady over
the next five years.
Office
•The longer-dated WALE of the office portfolio
means 60% of gross office income expires in FY29
and beyond.
Investment Portfolio
•Only 6% of the investment portfolio is
currentlyvacant or on holdover, providing

•Kiwi Property is focused on reducing MER and has
the objective of bringing the figure back to pre-
COVID levels, through initiatives including
headcount optimisation and leveraging our
resources to manage third-party assets and
generate management fee income.
•Reduction in direct property expenses driven by
lower cost base following asset disposals and
reduction in rental abatements granted due to
COVID-19.
•Increase in employment and administration
expenses relates to one-time increases in digital
capability, organisation restructuring costs, selective
slow-down of development options and salary
inflation.
•One-off costs comprise expenses relating to the
implementation of software projects and other non-
recurring transactions, which will normalise following
the completion of the Yardi IT project.

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 information has been extracted from the company’s interim consolidated financial statements which
have been the subject of a review by an independent auditor pursuant to the External Reporting Board’s New Zealand Standards on

2.5 Treatment of COVID-19 rent relief -prior period restatement
49
•The Group previously recognised rental
abatements on a straight-line basis over
the remaining lease term.
•Abatements of past due rent are now
recognised immediately as an impairment
of trade receivables in the income
statement.
•This change was reflected in the Group’s
financial statements for the year ended 31
March 2023.
•The period ended 30 September 2022 has
accordingly 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 HY23 profit
after tax or AFFO from the restatement.

recurring cash flows from operations for sustaining and maintaining existing space. Broadly, AFFO adjusts FFO by deducting the cost of lease
incentives,leasing fees, annual maintenance capital expenditure for sustaining and maintaining existing space and other one-off costs. AFFOdoes
not have a standardised 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. 3:Calculated
using the weighted average number of shares for the period.
•Dividend payout ratio returns to within
target payout range of 90-100% of
AFFO, following the prior years’
retention of earnings to assist
development funding.
•Despite retaining funds for investment
into future developments and asset
recycling, cash dividends are in line
with the four-year average from 2019.
•Lower imputation credits arise from
timing of dividend payments and tax
impacts of one-off transactions.
