Annual Financial Result

28 May 2024


• Total loss after tax of $5.30 million, against a $13.05 million loss in the previous year primarily

driven by downward valuations.

• Sale of Stoddard Road for $36.75 million with funds applied as a debt repayment.

• Munroe Lane development complete. Leasing the balance of vacant space remains the key

priority.

• 35 Graham Street settlement is scheduled to occur on 29 November 2024.


Asset Plus Limited (NZX: APL) announces its financial result for the year ended 31 March 2024,

reporting a total loss of $5.30 million, against a $13.05 million loss in the previous year. Lower

revaluation losses were recorded relative to last year which was the primary driver of the reduced loss.


Adjusted Funds from Operations (AFFO

1

) represented a loss of $0.67 million, down from a $0.28 million

loss in the prior period. The loss is driven by recent divestments and unrecovered OPEX at 35 Graham

Street, offset against the commencement of Munroe Lane rent.


Mark Francis, CEO Centuria NZ, commented “The result for the year ended 31 March 2024 reflects a

reduced portfolio due to recent divestments to prudently manage the balance sheet in the current high

interest environment. The Munroe Lane lease to Auckland Council has now commenced which is a

significant achievement and milestone for the company after the development broke ground in October

2020.


The leasing of the balance of the Munroe Lane development remains as the key priority but is

challenging in the current environment.”


Key points:

• Portfolio occupancy of 41%, up from 37% in the previous year due to Munroe Lane completion

offset against Stoddard Road sale.

• WALE of 5.9 years up from 1.2 years in the previous year due to commencement of the 15-year

Auckland Council lease at Munroe Lane.

• A reduction in the fair value of investment property of $4.9 million or a 2.6% decrease.

• The portfolio value now stands at $180.8 million of which $64.7 million of property is held for

sale and is unconditionally sold.

• Loan-to-value ratio (LVR) of 18.2% based on current fair values, down from 31.5% in the

previous year due to the Stoddard Road divestment.

• Debt was drawn at $33 million at balance date ($71.4 million in the prior year).

• Net tangible assets (NTA) of 38.9 cents per share (cps), down from 40.4 cps in the previous year.

• Net revenues from the property portfolio increased by $0.18 million.

AFFO is a non-GAAP financial information, calculated based on guidance issued by the Property Council of Australia. Asset

Plus considers that AFFO is a useful measure for shareholders and management because it assists in assessing the Company’s

underlying operating performance. This non-GAAP financial information does not have a standardised meaning prescribed by

AFFO has been reviewed by Asset Plus' auditor, Grant Thornton New Zealand Audit Limited. A reconciliation of AFFO to Total

Comprehensive Income Net of Tax is included in the accompanying results presentation.



Munroe Lane lease commencement

Munroe Lane is now complete with Auckland Council paying rental from 17 May 2023. Practical

Completion was achieved on 13 July 2023. The Auckland Council occupy 65% of the completed

development.


The Munroe Lane valuation has reduced from $126 million (at 31 March 2023) to $116.2 million based

on a committed occupancy basis. The September 2023 valuation was $120 million. The key drivers of

the valuation movement across the year was a shift in the capitalisation rate from 6.05% to 6.25% as

well as increased let up periods and increased lease incentives adopted by the valuer.


35 Graham Street deferred settlement

The settlement date was extended by the purchaser and is now confirmed to be 29 November 2024. A

20% deposit is now held and on settlement all debt will be repaid with the balance of the proceeds held

as cash reserves. It is forecast that APL will hold approximately $25 million of cash post settlement.


Stoddard Road sold

The sale of Stoddard Road was completed on 1 May 2023. Net divestment proceeds of $36.35 million

were applied as a debt reduction.


Dividend

The dividend remains subject to quarterly review. However, the dividend will likely remain suspended

until 35 Graham Street settles and the future direction of the Company is confirmed.


Outlook

Bruce Cotterill, Chairman, commented “The leasing of the balance of the Munroe Lane development

remains our core focus. Thereafter, we will consider the sale of Munroe Lane. If a sale of Munroe Lane

occurs, it will position the Company to consider its options which includes a wind up or pivoting in a

new direction.


As previously stated, any steps to sell Munroe Lane, or to subsequently wind up the Company, will

require shareholder approval, and we would likely anticipate asking shareholders to vote on both

decisions at the same time.”

Financial Performance

•The impact of the Eastgate and Stoddard Road settlements reduced

net rental income by $3.84 million.

•The impact of the above divestments was however offset by the

Munroe Lane net rental income of $4.0 million which was recognised

for the year (noting rental commenced on 17 May 2023). Overall, net

rental income increased by $0.18 million.

•Management fees were marginally lower by $0.14 million due to the

impact of the Eastgate and Stoddard Road divestments offset by the

Munroe Lane development and a small performance fee ($0.06

million).

•Net finance costs were higher by $0.30 million primarily due to

higher average interest rates ($0.57 million) offset against higher

interest income ($0.28 million).

•The Munroe Lane unrealised revaluation loss recognised was $8.0

million as the cap rate softened from 6.05% to 6.25% as well as

increased let up periods and incentives assumed.

•The 35 Graham Street fair value increased by $3.0 million due to the

discount unwind.

•There are tax losses of ~$12 million. A deferred tax asset recognised

to the extent of the deferred tax liability, hence $8.9 million of tax

losses are not recognised as a deferred tax asset.

•AFFO reconciliation and waterfall is appended.

Net Rental Performance

•35 Graham Street was broadly in line with the prior period. It

remains 99% vacant. A small amount of carpark income was

received which partially offset the opex incurred.

•The Eastgate settlement occurred in late August 2022, which

was the key reason for the reduction in net rental income of

$1.42 million at Eastgate.

•The Stoddard Road settlement occurred on 1 May 2023, which

was the sole reason for the reduction in net rental income of

$2.42 million.

•Munroe Lane rent commenced on 17 May 2023 in respect to the

Auckland Council lease. Net rental (including unrecovered opex

on the vacancy) of $4.0 million was derived during the period.

Administration & Finance Expenses

•Management fees were slightly lower as the weighted average

portfolio value marginally decreased due to the divestments, offset

by the Munroe Lane development.

•Management fees also included a small performance fee of $0.06

million for the year.

•Finance costs increased by $0.57 million. This was primarily due to

higher average interest rates ($0.72 million) offset against a lower

average debt balance which represented a saving of $0.15 million.

•Interest income was higher by $0.27 million due to funds held in

the lockbox (from November 2022) as well as the Munroe Lane

retention funds held in trust, and higher effective deposit rates

achieved.

•The development facility converted to an investment facility on 13

July 2023. Up until that date finance costs on this facility were

capitalised.

Balance Sheet

•Investment property comprises just Munroe Lane ($116.05 million).

•35 Graham Street is held for sale. During the year Stoddard Road

was sold for $36.75 million.

•35 Graham St fair value of $64.7 million reflects the future

settlement proceeds on a discounted basis (applying a 9.0% discount

rate which has increased from 8.5% during the year).

•Other assets include a $4 million cash lockbox held by BNZ and

funds held in retention.

•Deposits received of $13.6 million in respect to the 35 Graham

Street deferred settlement (recognised under other liabilities).

•$45.5 million of bank debt was repaid during the year.

•$7.1 million of debt was also drawn down progressively during the

year to fund the completion of the Munroe Lane development.

•Net deferred tax is $nil, whereby the deferred tax asset is equivalent

to the deferred tax liability of $0.87 million.

•Further tax losses not represented as a deferred tax asset are $8.9

million as they are not expected to be utilised in the near to medium

term.

•NTA marginally reduced during the period to 38.9 cents per share

due to revaluation losses.

•LVR is 18.2% at balance date (down from 31.5% as at 31 March

2023).

Funding Update

•The loan facilities expire on 31 March 2025, hence a current

liability at balance date.

•Cash lockbox in place for $4 million (reduced from $5 million) to

cover the actual EBIT shortfall to an ICR of 1.25x. Lockbox can

further reduce over time but only once leasing is secured, rental

income is derived and the ICR shortfall is less than $4 million. APL

reports EBIT and leasing updates so that lockbox sizing can be

tested.

•The Development facility converted to investment facility on

Munroe Lane practical completion being 13 July 2023. The LVR

covenant is now <45%.

•During the year the facility limit reduced from $85 million to $44.9

million. Drawn debt also reduced from $71.4 million to $33 million.

•No hedging is in place due to the 35 Graham Street exit.

•The base rate as at balance date is 5.65% before margin and line

fee. On a drawn debt basis, the effective interest rate is 8.9%.

•Drawn debt as at 28 May 2024 is $33 million. $11.9 million

remains undrawn.

•All debt will be repaid immediately post the 35 Graham Street

settlement on 29 November 2024 and the lockbox released.

Divestment of 35 Graham Street

35 GRAHAM STREET, AUCKLAND | ARTIST’S IMPRESSION

•Unconditionally sold, with a deferred settlement date of 29

November 2024 as the purchaser has notified APL that they wish

to extend settlement by 12 months.

•As the settlement is extended the total deposit received is now

$13.6 million and the sale price has increased to $68 million (from

$65 million). The second deposit of $7.1 million was received on

29 September 2023 and the funds were applied as a debt

repayment.

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

$64.7 million (based on the discounted forecast settlement cash

flows). A 9% discount rate has been applied.

Outlook

Asset Plus19
Outlook

MUNROE LANE, AUCKLAND

•The Company is forecast to still be in an operating loss position up until the 35 Graham

Street settlement has occurred on 29 November 2024 (absent any new leasing).

•Key focus remains on successfully leasing the balance of the Munroe Lane development.

Thereafter, we will consider selling Munroe Lane.

•We wish to emphasise that the leasing of Munroe Lane will influence the timing of such

decisions, while market conditions at the time are likely to dictate the ultimate outcome.

•Ultimately, if Munroe Lane was to sell, the Board anticipates being in the unique position of

the Company having zero debt and significant cash reserves with which to consider a range

of options. This includes a possible wind-up and return of capital or pivoting in a new

direction.

•Any steps to pivot in a new direction, sell Munroe Lane or to subsequently wind up the

Company, will require shareholder approval, and we would likely anticipate asking

shareholders to vote on both decisions at the same time.

•The dividend remains suspended which is subject to quarterly review. It is likely to remain

suspended until post the 35 Graham Street settlement and the future direction of the

Company is confirmed.

Chairman’s Letter

The challenging economic environment has continued

over the past twelve months, with New Zealand officially

slipping into recession through the September and

December 2023 quarters. The higher interest rates

targeted at inflation remain a feature in the economy

at this time, making it difficult for property owners.

Despite the economic backdrop we’ve continued to

progress our key objectives, including:

• Deliver the Munroe Lane development which

achieved Practical Completion in July 2023 with rental

payable by Auckland Council f rom 17 May 2023;

• Prudently manage the balance sheet to mitigate

the impacts of the high interest rate environment; and

• Successfully divest 22 Stoddard Road, Auckland

which settled in May 2023.

Achieving Practical Completion on the Munroe Lane

development is the culmination of a 4-year journey

f rom project inception to conclusion. The building

adds a highly sustainable, well located decentralised

office building with a blue-chip tenant covenant, being

Auckland Council across two thirds of the property.

Whilst leasing the remainder of the space continues to

prove challenging, it is pleasing to see increasing leasing

enquiry since completion of the property. There remains

a paucity of potential occupiers of significant scale

on the North Shore, post the Covid-19 pandemic and

subsequent impacts on occupier demand. However,

we are confident that the fundamentals of the building

will attract tenant commitment for the balance of the

space, over time, however we expect that leasing will

likely remain challenging in the near future.

On the back of the Auckland Council lease

commencement, income was bolstered to partially

offset divestments, and the ongoing vacancy at 35

Graham Street. As a result, we recorded a Adjusted

Funds From Operations (AFFO*) loss of $0.67 million. This

result for the full year is in line with expectations, driven

by the vacancy and unrecovered OPEX on 35 Graham

Street, which will continue until settlement occurs in

November 2024. The dividend was suspended in March

2022 based on the forecast earnings for the company

and is likely to remain on hold until 35 Graham Street

settles and the future of the company is determined.

The higher than usual inflationary and interest rate

environment has continued to adversely impact the fair

value of assets in the period, with our valuers recording

a $4.9 million reduction in the fair value of assets of the

company. This was driven by the valuation for Munroe

Lane reducing over the period, offset by the discount

unwind at 35 Graham Street. As a result, NTA has

reduced f rom 40.4 cps as at 31 March 2023 to 38.9 cps as

at 31 March 2024.

As part of our disciplined capital management approach,

and directly reflecting the cost of the company’s debt,

Stoddard Road was unconditionally sold for $36.75 million

and settled in May 2023. All of the proceeds f rom that

sale were utilised to repay debt. This prudent capital

management approach was appropriate given the

macroeconomic conditions, and accretive nature of the

sale versus the company’s cost of debt.

In October 2023, the purchaser of 35 Graham Street

exercised their right to defer settlement of the purchase

by twelve months. As a result, the purchase price increased

by a further $3.0 million to $68.0 million, and the deposit

increased to 20% of the total consideration. The additional

$7.10 million that was received was also applied as debt

repayments, reducing the LVR down to 18.2%.

During the year, upon the practical completion at Munroe

Lane, the development finance facility was converted to

an investment facility. We have retained sufficient facility

headroom of $11.9 million to fund incentives and leasing

across the vacant space at Munroe Lane. During the year

the lockbox facility was also reduced f rom $5.0 million to

$4.0 million in line with reductions in the company’s facility

limits and testing in accordance with facility covenants.

Looking forward, the Company’s key focus remains on

leasing the balance of the Munroe Lane development.

Doing so will increase earnings, WALE, and the value of the

portfolio and will better position the Company to consider

options moving forward. Those options will include a

potential divestment of Munroe Lane, subject to market

conditions at the time, and obtaining shareholder approval.

Once settlement of 35 Graham Street occurs, we anticipate

that the Company will ultimately be in a unique position of

having zero debt and cash reserves of approximately $25

million. If a sale of Munroe Lane was to occur it will position

the Company to consider its options, including a wind up of

the Company, or a pivot into a new direction. As previously

indicated any steps to sell Munroe Lane or to subsequently

wind up the company will require shareholder approval,

and we would likely anticipate asking shareholders to vote

on both decisions contemporaneously.

In the meantime, the Management team remains focused

on the objectives outlined above. Finally, we thank you

again for your continued support and look forward to

communicating our progress over the next few months

ahead of settlement of 35 Graham Street in late November.

*AFFO stands for ‘Adjusted Funds From Operations’, and is non-GAAP financial information, calculated based on guidance issued by the Property

Council of Australia. Asset Plus considers that AFFO is a useful measure for shareholders and management because it assists in assessing the

Company’s underlying operating performance. This non-GAAP financial information does not have a standardised meaning prescribed by GAAP

and therefore may not be comparable to similar financial information prescribed by other entities. The calculation of AFFO has been reviewed by

Asset Plus’ auditor, Grant Thornton New Zealand Audit Limited.

Total Net Revenue3,6533,466187

The impact of the Eastgate and Stoddard

Road sales reduced net rental income by

$3.84 million.

The impact of the above divestments was however

offset by the Munroe Lane net rental income of $4.0

million which was recognised for the year (noting

rent commenced on 17 May 2023). Therefore, overall

net rental income increased by $0.18 million.

Administration Expenses(1,753)(1,939)186

Management fees reduced due to a lower average

Net Finance Costs(2,295)(2,000)(295)

Net Finance Costs increased by $0.29m. The FY24

net finance costs include:

• Line fees of $0.51 million (FY23: $0.43 million);

• Interest of $2.23 million (FY23: $1.72 million) due to

higher interest rates;

• Interest income of $0.52 million (FY23: $0.24

Investment Property and Property
Held for Sale

Investment Property, including property held for sale,

total $180.8 million as at 31 March 2024 ($216.6 million

in the prior year).

Munroe Lane is the remaining investment property

which is not held for sale. This property reduced in

value f rom $118.56 million to $116.05 million during the

year. $5.4 million of capital expenditure was incurred

during the year. Offsetting the capital expenditure was

an $8.0 million write down for the year as the cap rate

softened and leasing incentives were increased.

Graham Street is held for sale and settles on 29

November 2024. The total consideration is $68

million. The current fair value is $64.7 million which

is an increase f rom $61.7 million at 31 March 2023.

The 35 Graham Street fair value is assessed on the

future settlement cash flows discounted at 9.0%. The

discount rate has increased f rom 8.5% during the

financial year due to rising interest rates.

Stoddard Road settled on 1 May 2023 and all proceeds

were applied as a debt repayment.

Funding

$32.974 million of debt is drawn which represents a

LVR of 18.2% as at 31 March 2024 (31.5% in the prior

year). The loan facility limit as at 31 March 2024 is

$44.9 million and the remaining undrawn debt

totalling approximately $11.9 million which will

primarily be used to fund the remaining leasing at

Munroe Lane. This limit reduced to $44.9 million

during the year f rom $85 million post the sale of

Stoddard Road and receipt of the additional deposit

at 35 Graham Street.

All drawn debt will be fully repaid when 35 Graham

Street settles on 29 November 2024, which is ahead

of the current facility term expiry of 31 March 2025.

Debt is therefore recorded as a current liability.

A lockbox mechanism is currently in place to cover

the ICR shortfall up to 1.25 times cover (which was

reduced f rom 1.5 times in November 2023). This

cash lockbox equates to $4 million and funds

can only be released f rom this lockbox once the

earnings profile improves f rom committed leases,

or debt is repaid.

The interest cover ratio (ICR) is not formerly tested

f rom a loan covenant perspective. However, EBITDA

metrics are reported to the bank each quarter

which assists with testing the sizing of the lockbox

of $4 million.

The development facility converted to an

investment facility on Munroe Lane practical

completion which occurred on 13 July 2023.

Dividends

No dividends were paid during the financial year.

The dividend remains subject to quarterly review.

However, the dividend will likely remain ceased until

the future direction of the company is confirmed.

Corporate Governance
Corporate Governance

Principle 1 – Ethical Standards

The Board of Asset Plus is committed to maintaining the highest standards of business

behaviour and accountability.

Accordingly, the Board has adopted corporate governance policies and practices designed

to promote responsible conduct.

The corporate governance f ramework is set out in Asset Plus’ Corporate Governance

Manual, a copy of which can be found at the Company’s website:

www.assetplusnz.co.nz/corporate-governance.

This section sets out Asset Plus’ corporate governance policies, practices and processes with

reference to the NZX Corporate Governance Code’s eight key principles and supporting

recommendations. The Board considers that it has followed the recommendations of the

NZX Corporate Governance Code except as set out below under each Principle.

This Corporate Governance Statement is current as at 31 March 2024. It reports against the

NZX Corporate Governance Code dated 1 April 2023.

Directors should set high

standards of ethical behaviour,

model this behaviour and hold

management accountable for

these standards being followed

throughout the organisation.

A Code of Ethics has been adopted by which the

Company has set out expectations for all Directors,

officers, any employees and representatives to act in

a manner consistent with its guiding principles and

the values set out in its Code of Ethics. This Code sets

out clear expectations of ethical decision-making

and personal behaviour in regard to confidentiality,

securities trading, transparency, company information,

conflict resolution processes, gifts and stakeholder

interaction. A copy of the Code of Ethics is included in

the Corporate Governance Manual available at

www.assetplusnz.co.nz/corporate-governance.

Any illegal or unethical behaviour is to be reported

to the Board. The Chairman will determine the

seriousness of the behaviour and what action

needs to be taken. The Chairperson may decide

that a subcommittee of the Board will be formed to

determine what action should be taken.

Asset Plus’ manager, Centuria, has also adopted a

Code of Conduct which applies to its employees and

directors. The Code sets out the minimum standards

expected of Centuria’s employees and directors and is

intended to facilitate decisions that are consistent with

Centuria values, business goals and legal and policy

obligations. A copy of the Centuria Code of Ethics

is available at https://centuria.com.au/wp-content/

Corporate Governance (continued)
Principle 2 – Board Composition

and Performance

Board Charter

The Asset Plus Board has adopted a Board Charter

and Governing Principles which sets out that

the specific responsibilities of the Board and its

Committees include:

• oversight of the Company including its control

and accountability procedures and systems;

• setting the strategic direction and objectives of

the Company;

• overseeing the audit and monitoring risk;

• approval of operating plans including annual

business plans and budgets;

• monitoring actual results against the annual

business plan, budget and strategic objectives;

• delegating the appropriate authority of the

management of the Company, and monitoring

management’s performance on a regular basis;

• setting the remuneration of the Directors;

• approval and monitoring capital expenditure,

capital management initiatives and acquisitions

and divestments;

• approval of capital structure and dividend policies;

and

• oversight of disclosure and monitoring of price

sensitive matters affecting the Company.

Director nominations and appointments

The Board has adopted a Nomination Committee

Charter which sets out the procedure for nominating

and appointing potential directors to the Board.

Given its size, the full Board of Asset Plus acts as the

Nominations Committee. The responsibilities set out

in the Nomination Committee Charter are:

• to identify and nominate candidates to fill Board

vacancies as and when they arise;

• before making an appointment, to evaluate

the balance of skills, knowledge and experience

on the Board and, in light of the evaluation, to

determine the role and capabilities required for

the appointment;

• to formulate succession plans for Directors taking

into account the challenges and opportunities

facing the Company and the skills and expertise

accordingly required to govern the Company in

the future;

• to regularly review the structure, size and

composition (including the skills, knowledge

and experience) of the Board and to make any

changes; and

• to consider such other matters relating to Board

nomination or succession issues as may be

identified by the Board.

Formal agreements are entered into with all new

directors.

Asset Plus has also adopted a Share Trading Policy

which sets out the rules for dealing in the listed financial

products of Asset Plus. The policy prohibits trading

by directors of Asset Plus without the written consent

of the Chairperson. There are also ‘no trade’ periods

around the release of the Annual and Interim reports.

A copy of the policy is available at

www.assetplusnz.co.nz/corporate-governance.

Centuria has also adopted an Insider Trading Policy

which sets out the rules for dealing in the financial

products of any entity that Centuria NZ manages

(including Asset Plus). The policy prohibits trading

by any employee or director of Centuria without the

written consent of the Centuria NZ Chair. Other than

in exceptional circumstances, all trading is prohibited

during blackout periods for 30 days prior to half- and

full-year balance dates until the first trading day after

the relevant results are announced.

To ensure an effective board,

there should be a balance of

independence, skills, knowledge,

experience and perspectives.

15

Board composition
Director profiles are on page 12 and director

shareholdings are listed on page 20.

Directors undertake continuing education to keep

their skills current and understand how to best

perform their duties.

The Board Charter sets out that the Board will review

its performance as a whole on an annual basis and

instigate additional comprehensive reviews as may be

deemed necessary f rom time to time.

External consultants may be commissioned as needed

to assist in the assessment of individual director

performance, the effectiveness of the Board’s processes

and/or the Board’s own effectiveness.

The factors relevant to determining that Bruce Cotterill,

Allen Bollard and Carol Campbell were independent

directors were that they are non-executive directors,

they have either no shareholding or, in the case of Carol

Campbell, a holding of less than 1% and that they have

no other business relationship with Asset Plus.

The factors relevant to determining that Paul Duffy

is not an independent director is that, until 2020, he

was a director of both the Manager and the largest

shareholder.

The factors relevant to determining that John McBain is

not an independent director is that, he is a director and

beneficial owner of both the Manager and the largest

shareholder (at that time).

As three of the five directors are considered to be

independent (including the Chair), the Board is

comprised of a majority of independent directors.

Diversity

Asset Plus has not adopted a diversity policy as it no

longer has any employees following externalisation

of management to Centuria and accordingly has not

complied with this recommendation for the entire

period in which the NZX Corporate Governance Code

has been in place. This practice has been approved by

the Asset Plus Board.

Corporate Governance (continued)

Chair and CEO

In accordance with the NZX Corporate Governance

Code and as a result of management being

externalised, Asset Plus’ Chair is not also its CEO.

Principle 3 – Board Committees

The Asset Plus Board has established a separate Audit

and Risk Committee comprising of three directors. The

Corporate Governance Manual also includes charters

for Nominations Committee and Remuneration

Committee. However, the full Board undertakes the

responsibilities of those Committees. Given the size and

operations of Asset Plus, the Board does not consider

that any further committees are necessary.

Audit and Risk Committee

The Audit and Risk Committee’s primary objectives are:

• to set the principles and standards with respect to

internal controls, accounting policies and the nature,

scope, objectives and functions of the external audit.

This objective enables the Board to satisfy itself that

management is discharging its responsibilities in

accordance with established processes and, wherever

practical, best practice methodologies; and

• to ensure the efficient and effective oversight and

management of all business risks.

Key responsibilities for the Audit and Risk

Committee include:

• Establishing guidelines for the selection, appointment

and/or removal of the external auditor as well as the

rotation of the lead partner of the audit firm;

• Revising and recommending to the Board the

appointment and removal of the external auditor if

the Committee considers necessary;

• Ensuring the external auditor is discharging

its responsibilities, including monitoring the

effectiveness, objectivity and independence of the

external auditor;

• Reviewing draft financial statements, NZX preliminary

announcements and annual and interim reports;

• Reviewing accounting policies and practices;

The board should use committees

where this will enhance its

effectiveness in key areas, while

still retaining board responsibility.

16

Corporate Governance (continued)
• Reviewing the risk management policy and the

Manager's risk management reporting; and

• Reviewing the Delegated Authority Policy annually.

The members are all independent non-executive

directors being Carol Campbell (Chair), Allen Bollard

and Bruce Cotterill. The Audit and Risk Committee is

required to meet at least twice a year, with 3 meetings

being held in the 2023 financial year.

Representatives of the Manager only attend meetings

of the Audit and Risk Committee at the invitation of

the committee.

Remuneration Committee

The full Board acts as the Remuneration Committee.

The Remuneration Committee Charter is included in

the Corporate Governance Manual. The responsibilities

include setting and reviewing all components of the

remuneration of non-executive Directors. As Asset

Plus does not have any employees, the Committee's

responsibilities only cover the remuneration of non-

executive directors.

Nominations Committee

The full Board acts as the Nominations Committee.

The Nominations Committee Charter is included in the

Corporate Governance Manual. The responsibilities are

as set out on page 15.

Takeover protocols

In June 2018, the Board adopted protocols setting

out the procedures to be followed if a takeover offer

is received.

Principle 4 – Reporting and

Disclosure

Continuous disclosure

Asset Plus has adopted a disclosure policy setting

out its approach to disclosing material information

and communication with shareholders or analysts.

Asset Plus recognises that the cornerstone of New

Zealand and international securities law is full and

fair disclosure of material information and that the

timely, non-exclusionary distribution of information

to the public is crucial to the efficiency and integrity

of the capital markets.

A copy of the policy is available on Asset Plus’ website

at www.assetplusnz.co.nz/corporate-governance,

along with the Corporate Governance Manual.

Other than the Corporate Governance disclosures,

Asset Plus has not provided non-financial

disclosure in this annual report in accordance

with Recommendation 4.4 of the NZX Corporate

Governance Code. This is due to Asset Plus' portfolio

only consisting of Munroe Lane following the sale

Principle 5 – Remuneration
Corporate Governance (continued)

Remuneration of directors is reviewed by the Board. The director remuneration pool was approved at $300,000 when

Asset Plus was formed following the corporatisation of the National Property Trust in 2011. In June 2017, the Asset

Plus Board approved the following director fees which have continued to be paid during the past year. In addition,

Asset Plus does not have a remuneration policy for directors (and therefore does not comply with Recommendation

5.1 of the NZX Corporate Governance Code. The Board does not consider that any changes are currently necessary

to director remuneration as a result of the reducing asset base of Asset Plus. Should any changes to director

remuneration be proposed, the Board will consider adopting a remuneration policy.

Director remuneration

As Asset Plus no longer has any employees, it does not have a remuneration policy for executives and therefore

does not comply with Recommendation 5.2 of the NZX Corporate Governance Code.

Chief Executive remuneration

Following the externalisation of management to Centuria, Asset Plus no longer has a CEO.

The remuneration of directors and executives should be transparent, fair and reasonable.

Asset Plus relies on Centuria’s risk management
f ramework to identify, oversee, manage and control

risks that Asset Plus faces. Key risks have been

identified including interest rate and treasury

risk, leasing risk, cyber security, construction and

development risk, compliance with regulatory

obligations, property risks (such as tenant default),

f raud and health and safety risks.

Centuria is responsible under the management

agreement for advising the Asset Plus Board on risk

management matters. The Audit and Risk Committee

receives such reports, oversees risk management and

reports to the Board on risk management.

Health and safety

Centuria oversees health and safety compliance on a

day to day basis for Asset Plus in conjunction with the

property managers for each property. Each property

has a hazard register which is managed on a day to

day basis by the property managers and overseen by

Centuria’s asset managers.

Centuria's management team oversees compliance

with Centuria’s health and safety f ramework including

regular reporting to the Board. This includes regular

reporting to the Board on key health and safety

statistics, incidents and hazard remedies.

The Asset Plus Board also considers health and safety

issues at each board meeting and as they arise if

necessary. A key focus for the Asset Plus Board is

ensuring that hazards are identified and remedied

and that reporting identifies the progress with

remedial actions.

Corporate Governance (continued)

Principle 7 – Auditors

The Audit and Risk Committee Charter sets out

Asset Plus’ f ramework for managing relationships

with its auditor. This includes the ability for directors

to communicate directly with auditors and for

auditors to attend meetings of the Audit and Risk

Committee without management present. Any

non-audit services provided by the audit firm must

be approved by the Audit and Risk Committee.

Grant Thornton New Zealand Audit Limited is the

auditor of Asset Plus with the audit partner rotated

every 5 years. Grant Thornton New Zealand Audit

Limited attends each annual shareholder meeting

and is available to answer shareholder questions at

the meeting.

Asset Plus has no separate internal audit function

as it has no employees. It relies on the Manager's

compliance assurance and risk management

processes for ensuring continued improvement.

Directors should have a sound

understanding of the material

risks faced by the issuer and how

to manage them. The Board

should regularly verify that the

issuer has appropriate processes

that identify and manage

potential and material risks.

Principle 6 – Risk Management

The board should ensure the

quality and independence of

the external audit process.

Principle 8 – Shareholder Rights and Relations

Asset Plus’ website at www.assetplusnz.co.nz includes a

range of information including bios for directors, copies

of the Corporate Governance Manual, the constitution

and historical annual and interim reports.

The Company engages with shareholders through

annual and interim reports, results conference

calls, presentations to shareholders and the annual

shareholder meeting.

Shareholders have the right to receive communications

electronically by notifying the share registrar. Major

decisions which require approval under the NZX Main

Board Listing Rules are submitted to shareholders

for approval. All voting at shareholder meetings is

conducted by a poll.

The annual shareholders notice of meeting in 2023 was

provided to shareholders 17 working days prior to the

annual meeting and therefore did not comply with the

recommendation to provide it at least 20 working days

prior to the annual meeting. This was due to a delay in

finalising the notice. The notice period was longer than

the minimum 10 working day period required under

Asset Plus' constitution.

1. Corporate Information

The consolidated financial statements comprise of Asset

Plus Limited (the “Company”) and its subsidiary (collectively

the “Group”).

The Company is a limited liability company incorporated

and domiciled in New Zealand whose shares are listed on

the New Zealand Stock Exchange. The Company is a FMC

reporting entity under the Financial Markets Conduct Act

2013. The registered office is located in Level 2, Bayley's

House, 30 Gaunt Street, Wynyard Quarter, Auckland.

The nature of the operations and principal activities of the

Group are investing in commercial property in New Zealand.

2. Summary of Material

Accounting Policies

(a) Basis of Preparation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared

in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Practice

in New Zealand (“NZ GAAP”), the Companies Act 1993, the

requirements set out in section 7 of the Financial Markets

Conduct Act 2013 and the Main Board Listing Rules of the

NZX. The consolidated financial statements have been

prepared on a historical cost basis, except for investment

properties which have been measured at fair value.

The consolidated financial statements are presented in New

Zealand dollars and all values are rounded to the nearest

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

(b) Statement of Compliance

The consolidated financial statements comply with New

Zealand equivalents to International Financial Reporting

Standards ('NZ IFRS') and International Financial Reporting

Standards (IFRS), as appropriate for a profit-oriented entity

that falls into the Tier 1 for profit category as determined by

the New Zealand Accounting Standards Board.

Changes in accounting policies

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those

of the previous financial year, except where new accounting

standards which have been issued and are effective for the

current reporting period, or which are issued but not yet

effective and may be early adopted, have been adopted

for the first time. There are no new accounting standards

adopted in the current year.

Accounting standards that are issued but not yet effective

Issue date

- Classification of Liabilities as Current and

Non-current (Amendments to NZ IAS 1)

1 January 2024

- Disclosure of Fees for Audit Firms' Services

(Amendments to FRS-44)

1 January 2024

(c) Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the

assets, liabilities and equity at the end of the annual

reporting period and revenue, expenses and cash

flows during the year ended 31 March 2024, and it's

comparative period, of the entities controlled by the

Company. A controlled entity is any entity over which

Asset Plus Limited has the power to direct relevant

activities, exposure or rights, to variable returns from

its involvement with the investee, and the ability to

use its power over the investee to affect the amount

of investor return. The existence and effect of potential

voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible

are considered, if those rights are substantive, when

assessing whether a Company controls another entity.

In preparing these consolidated financial statements,

subsidiaries are consolidated from the date the Group

gains control until the date on which control ceases.

The financial statements of the subsidiary are prepared

for the same reporting period as the parent company,

using consistent accounting policies. In preparing the

consolidated financial statements, all intercompany

balances, transactions, unrealised gains and losses

resulting from intra-group transactions and dividends

have been eliminated in full.

The table below represents the Company's investment in

its subsidiary at each reporting date:

Percentage Held

31 March 202431 March 2023

Asset Plus

Investments Limited

100%100%

(d) Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Revenue and expenses are recognised net of the amount

of GST except where the GST incurred on a purchase of

goods and services is not recoverable f rom the taxation

authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the

cost of acquisition of the item as applicable.

All items in the consolidated statement of financial position

are stated net of GST, with the exception of receivables

and payables, which include GST invoiced. Cash flows are

included in the consolidated statement of cash flows on

a net basis and the GST component of cash flows arising

f rom investing and financing activities is classified as part

of operating activities.

Financial Statements

3. Significant Accounting Estimates

and Judgements

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements

in conformity with NZ IFRS requires Directors to make

judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect

the application of the Group's accounting policies and

the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and

expenses. All judgements, estimates and assumptions

made are believed to be reasonable based on the most

current set of circumstances available to the Group.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed

on an ongoing basis. Although the Group has internal

control systems in place to ensure that estimates can

be reliably measured, actual results may differ f rom

these estimates. Revisions to accounting estimates are

recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised

if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of

the revision and future periods if the revision affects both

current and future periods.

Fair value measurements

A number of the Group's accounting policies and

disclosures require measurement at fair value. Fair values

are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy

based on the inputs used in the valuation technique

adopted as follows:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for

identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included in

Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability,

either directly (i.e. as prices), or indirectly (i.e.

derived f rom prices).

Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based

on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Key Judgements

The areas involving a high degree of judgement or areas

where assumptions are significant to the Group include

the following:

–Determination of Fair Value of Investment Property

(Note 11)

–Classification of Investment Property Held for Sale

(Note 12)

–Deferred Taxation (Note 7)

Going Concern

The financial statements have been prepared under the

going concern assumption, which assumes the Group

will be able to pay its debts as they fall due in the normal

course of business. As part of management's assessment

of the Group's ability to continue as a going concern, the

following uncertainties relating to events or conditions

have been taken into account:

At 31 March 2024, the current liabilities of the Group

exceeded its current assets by $39,585,000 (2023: Net

current assets $1,129,000) because the loan is a current

liability as the debt facilities will expire on 31 March 2025.

The net sale proceeds f rom 35 Graham Street, which settles

on 29 November 2024, will be applied to fully repay external

bank debt.

The Board has considered all information available at the

date of signing the consolidated financial statements (refer

to subsequent event Note 22) and is of the opinion that the

Group is a going concern based on:

–The Munroe Lane development completed in July 2023,

providing rental income and cash inflows f rom this point;

–Available liquidity levels, undrawn and available debt on

the loan facilities and forecast cashflows for at least 12

months being sufficient to cover future obligations when

they fall due; and

–Forecast cashflows have taken into consideration tenant

known circumstances, costs to be incurred in respect to

developments, expected future expenses and provisions

to fund any anticipated cash requirements in the current

environment.

4. Financial Risk Management

Objectives and Policies

The Group's principal financial instruments comprise

bank loans, cash, trade receivables and payables. Financial

assets and liabilities are recognised on the Consolidated

Statement of Financial Position when the Group becomes

a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

The main risks arising f rom the Group’s financial

instruments are interest rate risk, credit risk, liquidity

risk and fair value risk. The Board reviews and agrees

policies for managing each of these risks and they are

summarised below.

Interest rate risk

The Group has exposure to interest rate risk to the extent

that it borrows for fixed terms at floating interest rates.

The Directors assess this risk on an ongoing basis and if

deemed significant, will instruct the Group to enter into

interest rate swaps to manage material exposure. The

Group’s exposure to interest rate risk and the effective

weighted interest rates for each class of financial asset

and financial liability were:

Total Financial Liabilities- (79,898)(79,898)(79,898)

Credit risk

In the Board's opinion, the Group trades only with

recognised, creditworthy third parties, whose

obligations to the Group are contractually enforceable

under tenancy agreements and car park licences.

Financial instruments, which potentially subject

the Group to credit risk, principally consist of bank

balances, receivables and advances to tenants.

With respect to credit risk arising f rom the other

financial assets of the Group, which comprise interest

received on cash and cash equivalents, the Group’s

exposure to credit risk arises f rom default of the

counter party, with a maximum exposure equal to the

carrying amount of these instruments. Bank of New

Zealand, who is the counter party in respect to these

financial assets of the Group, currently holds an AA-

credit rating (issued by Standard & Poors).

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk arises f rom the Group’s financial liabilities

and the ability to meet all its obligations to repay

financial liabilities as and when they fall due. The Group

actively monitors its position to ensure that sufficient

funds are available to meet liabilities as they arise.

Liquidity is monitored on a regular basis and reported to

the Board monthly.

The table below reflects all contractually fixed pay-offs for

settlement and repayments resulting f rom recognised

financial liabilities. This table is based on all interest rate

variables being held constant over the relevant period

of time. It does not allow for potential future margin or

base rate changes as these can not be easily identified

as at balance date. All payments are undiscounted and

the timing of the cash flows is based on the contractual

terms of the underlying contract. Interest payable is

based on the drawn debt at balance date.

A comparison between financial assets and financial liabilities fair value and carrying amounts is set out below.

The net fair value is not materially different f rom the carrying value. The methods used for determining fair

value have been disclosed in Note 15.

Capital Management

The Group’s capital includes contributed capital and

accumulated loss.

When managing capital, the Directors objective is to

ensure the entity continues as a going concern as well

as to maintain optimal returns to shareholders. As the

market is constantly changing, management and the

Board of Directors consider capital and management

initiatives. The Directors have the discretion to change

(or cease) the amount of dividends to be paid to

shareholders accordingly, issue new shares or sell

investment property to reduce debt. Capital is also

monitored through the gearing ratio.

The Group’s policies in respect of capital management

and allocation, including loan covenants are reviewed

quarterly by the Board of Directors.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise of cash on hand,

demand deposits and other short term highly liquid

investments that are readily convertible to a known

amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk

of changes in value.

Financial Instruments

Classification of financial instruments.

The Group classifies its financial assets as fair value

through profit and loss (“FVTPL”), fair value through

other comprehensive income (“FVTOCI”) and

amortised cost according to the Group’s business

objectives for managing the financial assets and based

on the contractual cash characteristics of the financial

assets. At each reporting date, the Group classifies all

its financial liabilities as amortised cost or FVTPL.

Accounting policy

Rental Revenue

Rental revenue is the Group's primary revenue stream. Net rental revenue is recognised in accordance with

NZ IFRS 16 Leases. Substantially all property owned by the Group is leased to third party tenants. As the Group

retains substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership of its investment properties, it accounts for leases with

its tenants as operating leases and begins recognising income when the tenant has a right to use the leased

asset. The total amount of contractual rent to be received f rom operating leases is recognised on a straight-line

basis over the term of the lease; including any lease incentives which are amortised to profit and loss over the

same period and reduce rental income recognised.

Net rental revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in the relevant rental agreement. The lease

term varies between properties and individual tenants within those properties.

The above rental receivables are based on contracted amounts as at 31 March 2024 and 31 March 2023. Actual rental

amounts collected in future will differ due to upward rental review provisions within the lease agreements. There are

multiple leases and tenants. The rent review mechanisms and f requency vary for each lease. Each lease has renewal

dates whereby the lessee has the right to renew for an agreed term. The minimum lease payments receivable reflect the

minimum lease terms and do not include any options for renewal due to the uncertainty as to whether the options will be

exercised. The figures above also exclude the recovery of rates and insurance disclosed under lease income in accordance

with NZ IFRS 16 since this is a variable lease payment that does not depend on an index or rate.

Accounting policy

Interest Revenue

Interest revenue consists of interest accrued on cash deposits and is recognised using the effective interest method.

Interest and Finance Costs

Finance costs, including borrowing costs and interest payable on borrowings, are recognised in the consolidated

statement of comprehensive income when incurred. Borrowing costs incurred that do not relate to qualifying

assets are treated as an expense and are not capitalised. Prepaid loan establishment fees are recognised on the

consolidated statement of financial position and capitalised (if related to a qualifying asset) or expensed over the

term of the loan agreement (Note 13) on a straight line basis.

7. Income Tax

Accounting policy

Income tax in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income comprises current and deferred tax.

Income tax is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in

equity, in which case it is recognised in equity.

Current tax is the expected tax on the taxable income for the year, using rates enacted or substantially

enacted at balance date, and any adjustment to income tax payable in respect of previous periods. Current

tax for current and prior periods is recognised as a liability (or asset) to the extent it is unpaid (or refundable).

Deferred tax is provided for using the liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying

amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences, except:

• When the deferred tax liability arises f rom the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a

transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the

accounting profit nor the taxable profit or loss.

• In respect of the taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and

interests in joint ventures, when the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled

and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred income tax assets are recognised for all deductible temporary differences, carry-forward of unused

tax assets and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against

which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry-forward of unused tax assets and unused tax

losses can be utilised, except:

• When the deferred income tax asset relating to the deductible temporary difference arises f rom the

initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the

time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss.

• When the deductible temporary difference is associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates or

interests in joint ventures, in which case a deferred tax asset is only recognised to the extent that it is

probable that the temporary difference will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be

available against which the temporary difference can be utilised.

The carrying amount of any deferred income tax asset is reviewed at each reporting 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 income tax asset to be utilised. Deferred income 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) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at balance date.

The Group has applied the rebuttable presumption under NZ IAS 12 that deferred tax on investment property

measured using the fair value model in NZ IAS 40 is determined on the basis that its carrying amount will be

recovered through sale.

The Group holds investment properties for the purpose of capital appreciation and rental income and

therefore the measurement of any related deferred tax reflects the tax consequences of recovering the

carrying amount of the investment property entirely through sale. In New Zealand there is no capital gains

tax, therefore the tax consequences on sale will be limited to depreciation previously claimed for tax purposes

(i.e. depreciation recovered).

For the year-ended 31 March 2024, the Group is in a tax loss position. It is not considered probable that the Group will utilise

these tax losses in the near-term. As such, a deferred tax asset has only been recognised to the extent of the deferred tax

liability balance as at 31 March 2024, resulting in a net nil deferred tax balance sheet position, in accordance with IAS 12.

8. Segment Reporting

The principal business activity of the Group is to invest in New Zealand properties. Investment properties have similar

economic characteristics, methods of management and are under leases of various terms. Segment reporting is presented

in a consistent manner with internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision maker, the Board. The Board receives

internal financial information on a property by property basis, assesses property performance and decides on the resource

allocation. The Group operates only in New Zealand. On this basis all of the Group’s properties have been aggregated into a

single reporting segment to most appropriately reflect the nature and financial effects of the business activities. The Group

has no unallocated revenue, expenses, assets or liabilities and this approach has been applied to comparative periods.

9. Trade and Other Receivables

10. Other Financial Assets

Accounting policy

Trade receivables, other receivables and prepayments are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction

costs and subsequently carried at amortised costs using the effective interest rate method less an

allowance for any impairment losses. Due to their short term nature, trade receivable, other receivables and

prepayments are not discounted.

The Group makes use of a simplified approach in accounting for trade receivables and records the loss allowance

as lifetime expected credit losses. These are the expected shortfalls in contractual cash flows, considering the

potential for default at any point during the life of the financial instrument. In calculating, the Group uses its

historical experience, external indicators and forward looking information to calculate the expected credit losses.

The impairment of trade receivables is assessed on a collective basis (grouped based on the days past due), as

they possess shared credit risk characteristics.

Further disclosure details on the expected credit loss model have not been included in the financial statements

as the amounts involved are considered by the Directors of the Group to be immaterial.

Accounting policy

Other assets relates to restricted cash balances which are held on term deposit. This cash held on term deposit

is considered restricted on the basis that the funds do not have the same level of liquidity as cash and cash

equivalents on the basis that the funds are not f reely able to be withdrawn at any time and is not available

to be used to meet short-term commitments. Therefore the restricted cash is excluded f rom cash and cash

equivalents and presents as other financial assets.

11. Investment & Development Properties

Accounting policy

Investment properties which are held exclusively to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation are classified

as investment properties at their acquisition date. These are initially recognised at cost plus related costs

of acquisition. After initial recognition, investment properties are stated at fair value as determined by an

independent registered valuer. Investment properties are valued annually. The fair value is based on market values,

being the price that would be received to sell the property in an orderly transaction at the date of valuation after

proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion.

Investment properties that are being constructed or developed for future use are classified as development

properties and are measured at cost, as cost represents the fair value. Development properties are carried at fair

value when fair value can be reliably determined, which is expected to be upon completion. All costs directly

associated with the purchase and construction of a property and all subsequent capital expenditure is capitalised.

Gains or losses arising f rom changes in the fair value of development properties held at fair value are included in

profit or loss in the year in which they arise. Development properties are re-classified as Investment properties

upon practical completion of the development and the property is held to be leased out under an operating lease.

In the absence of an active market, alternative valuation techniques are utilised which may include discounted

cash flow projections, capitalisation of income or sales comparison approach as appropriate to the property being

valued. The valuations are prepared by considering the aggregate of the estimated cash flows expected f rom

rental income, the occupancy rates, average lease terms and capitalisation rates which reflect the current market

conditions. The estimate of fair value is a judgement which has been made based on the market conditions which

apply at each reporting date.

Investment properties are derecognised either when they have been disposed of or when the investment property

is permanently withdrawn f rom use and no future economic benefit is expected f rom its disposal. Any gains or

losses on the disposal of an investment property are recognised in profit or loss in the period of derecognition.

The opening fair value balance includes leasing costs amounting to $0.84 million which were paid in a prior year when the Munroe Lane property was still

under development. In the current year, in order to present the capitalised leasing costs net of amortisation in the table above, the capex amount has been

reduced by $0.84 million.

Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)

Munroe Lane work in progress (WIP) was reclassified on practical completion which was achieved on 13 July 2023. The

opening balance reflects the WIP incurred. Munroe Lane is therefore classified as an investment property as at 31 March 2024.

Munroe Lane is measured at fair value, which includes costs to complete, as at 31 March 2024 and is determined by the

independent valuation using the capitalisation and discounted cashflow approach. The independent valuation was

conducted by an independent registered valuer who is a member of the Institute of Valuers of New Zealand. The valuer is

experienced in valuing commercial properties.

The independent valuation as at 31 March 2024 is $116.2 million. The fair value reflects $0.15 million of costs to complete. The

fair value is also adjusted to reflect the straight-line rent accrual and the capitalised leasing costs net of amortisation as set

out in the table above.

* The represents the valuers' assessment of the net market income which a property is expected to achieve under a new arm’s length leasing transaction.

** Represents the period of time that has been allowed to let up vacant areas.

Investment property values are assessed within a range indicated by at least two valuation approaches, other than undeveloped land. Most

commonly the capitalisation of net income approach and the discounted cash flow approach are used to value income producing properties.

The sales comparison approach is used to appraise both developed and undeveloped plots of land.

Estimates are used in these valuations. These include the capitalisation rate in the income capitalisation approach, the discount rate in

the discounted cash flow approach and rate per square meter in the sales comparison approach. The 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, other capital payments, time, location, quality and overall condition.

Among other factors, all valuation approaches consider the quality of the building and its location, tenant quality, lease terms and any lease

incentive costs such as rent-f ree periods and other costs not paid by the tenant.

This sensitivity analysis outlines how movements in the discount rate and yield impact to the fair value of the investment

12. Properties Held for Sale

Accounting policy

Investment property is transferred to investment property held for sale when it is expected that the carrying

amount will be recovered principally through sale rather than f rom continuing use. The property is held at

the realisable value, being the lower of carrying value or fair value less cost to sell. These properties are held for

immediate sale in their present condition.

Investment properties which meet the requirements of assets held for sale will be reclassified on the date these

requirements are met. These properties will continue to be measured under the fair value model with any gains or

losses being recognised in profit or loss in accordance with NZ IAS 40 Investment Properties. Revenue on the sale

of properties held for sale is recognised when the risks and rewards have transferred to the buyer. The carrying

value represents the sale price in respect to the property.

The table below outlines the movements in the carrying values for all properties held for sale during the year:

On 1 May 2023 Stoddard Road was sold for $36.75 million and the net sale proceeds were $36.33 million.

35 Graham Street is measured at the lower of carrying value or fair value. Fair value has been determined based on the

forecast future discounted cash flows of the sale up to the settlement on 29 November 2024 including the deposits received

of $13.6 million. A discount rate of 9.0% has been used as at 31 March 2024 (2023: 8.5%) which reflects the assumed weighted

average cost of capital. The increase in the fair value is due to the impact of the discount unwind offset against the extended

settlement date (which was extended on 27 September 2023).

13. Borrowings

Accounting policy

Borrowings are classified as financial liabilities at amortised cost. They are initially recognised at fair value of

the consideration less directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, borrowings

are stated at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Borrowings are classified as current

liabilities unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12

months after the reporting date.

Borrowing costs are recognised as an expense when incurred, unless they relate to a qualifying asset and

are capitalised when incurred. Borrowing costs capitalised on qualifying assets during the year were $1.1m

(2023: $2.9m)

14. Trade Payables, Accruals and Provisions

Accounting policy

Trade and other payables

Trade payables are classified as financial liabilities and are initially measured at fair value less any transaction costs

and subsequently carried at amortised cost and due to their short term nature, are not discounted. They represent

liabilities for goods and services provided to the Group prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise

when the Group becomes obliged to make future payments in respect to the purchase of these goods and services.

Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation, as a result of past events, for which

it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will result and that the outflow can be reliably measured.

15. Fair Value Measurement

Accounting policy

Financial assets/liabilities classified as fair value through profit and loss (“FVTPL”) are initially recognised at

their fair value and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Gains and losses recorded

on each revaluation date are recognised within profit or loss. Transaction costs of financial assets classified as

FVTPL are expensed in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

The table below sets out the comparison by category of carrying amounts, fair values, and fair value movement hierarchy of

the Group's investment properties and borrowings:

The quoted market price (Level 1) represents the fair value determined based on quoted prices in active markets as at the

with a comparison to similar instruments for which market observable prices exist and other relevant models used by

market participants, which includes current swap rates on offer and also the current floating interest rate (interest rate

swaps). For properties held for sale and investment properties (Level 3), the Group uses present value techniques based on

forecasted future earnings.

There are no transfers between Level 1, 2 or 3 during the financial year ended 31 March 2024 (2023: None).

Independent Auditor’s Report
Independent

auditor’s report

To the Shareholders of Asset Plus Limited

Report on the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Asset Plus Limited (the “Company”) and its subsidiary

(together the “Group”) on pages 26 to 49 which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at

31 March 2024, and the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes

in equity and consolidated statement of cash flows for the year then ended, and notes to the consolidated

financial statements, including a summary of material accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the

financial position of the Group as at 31 March 2024 and its financial performance and cash flows for the year then

ended in accordance with New Zealand Equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards (“NZ IFRS”)

issued by the New Zealand Accounting Standards Board.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand) (ISAs (NZ))

issued by the New Zealand Auditing and Assurance Standards Board. 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 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) issued by the New Zealand Auditing and Assurance Standards Board and the International

Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’ International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including

International Independence Standards) (IESBA Code), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in

accordance with these requirements and the IESBA Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained

is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

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

48

Independent Auditor’s Report (continued)
Why the matter is significantHow our audit addressed the key audit matter

Investment Property - Valuations

The Group’s investment properties and non-current

assets held for sale have an assessed value of $116.1 million

and $64.7 million respectively and make up a significant

portion of the assets of the Group.

In the application of NZ IFRS, management is required

to make judgements, estimates and assumptions in

determining the carrying values of assets and liabilities

that are not readily apparent f rom other sources.

The estimates, assumptions and methodology for

determining the values are specific to the nature, location

and expected future rental income for each property.

Where appropriate, the Group engaged independent

registered valuers or used a contractual selling price to

determine the value of the property.

The estimates, assumptions and methods used in

determining the value of the properties, may not be

appropriate. Market volatility can have a significant impact

on the value of these properties and the consolidated

financial statements; therefore, the valuation of these

properties is considered a key audit matter.

To address the risk associated with the valuation of the

properties, the following audit procedures were carried out:

• Obtained and agreed the schedule of investment

property to the respective independent valuation

report, performed by valuation expert or management;

• Evaluated the independence, qualifications and work

of the valuation expert;

• Involved internal specialists to assist with our

assessment of whether significant valuation

assumptions fell within reasonable ranges and the

valuation methodologies adopted were appropriate.

• Inquired about and documented the methods and

assumptions used by the expert and considered the

appropriateness of those assumptions and methods

used;

• Confirmed that the property valuation was performed

in accordance with appropriate accounting standards

for use in determining the carrying value of investment

property as at 31 March 2024;

• Verified the accuracy of any costs capitalised against

properties by selecting a sample of transactions,

tracing it to supporting documentation and validating

whether the transactions meets the criteria for

capitalisation;

• Recalculated the fair value adjustment to be recorded

for the year for each investment property as at 31

March 2024;

• Considered the adequacy of the disclosures made

in Note 3 Material Accounting Estimates and

Judgements, Note 11 Investment and Development

Properties and Note 12 Properties Held for Sale, of the

consolidated financial statements, which sets out the

key judgements and estimates including valuation

techniques and significant unobservable inputs

applied to determine fair value of the investment

properties and non-current assets held for sale; and

• Discussed with management changes in the

investment property portfolio, including any property

development, controls in place surrounding the

valuation process and the impact that the market

volatility has had on the investment property portfolio

including occupancy risk, growth rates and other key

assumptions.

Independent Auditor’s Report (continued)
Information Other than the Consolidated Financial Statements and Auditor’s

Report thereon

The Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises 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 will 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

identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially

inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially

misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, 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.

Directors’ responsibilities for the consolidated financial statements

The Directors are responsible on behalf of the Group for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial

statements in accordance with New Zealand equivalents to International Financial Reporting Standards issued by the New

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

preparation of consolidated financial statements that are f ree f rom material misstatement, whether due to f raud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the directors are responsible on behalf of the Group 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.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are f ree f rom

material misstatement, whether due to f raud 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) will

always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise f rom f raud 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.

A further description of the auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the External

Reporting Board’s website at: https://www.xrb.govt.nz/standards/assurance-standards/auditors-responsibilities/audit-report-1/

Restriction on use of our report

This report is made solely to the Company’s shareholders, as a body. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might

state to the Company’s shareholders, as a body those matters which we are required to state to them in an auditor’s 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 and the Company’s shareholders, as a body, for our audit work, for this report or for the opinion we have formed.
