This report presents Precinct's Climate
Statement for the FY25 reporting period

in accordance with Aotearoa New Zealand

Climate Standards issued by the External

Reporting Board (XRB):

•NZ CS 1: Climate-related Disclosures

•NZ CS 2: Adoption of Aotearoa New Zealand

Climate Standards

•NZ CS 3: General Requirements for Climate-

related Disclosures

As a business, Precinct is committed to creating a

more sustainable environment. This means identifying

and assessing the risks and opportunities presented by

climate change. We recognise our role as a long-term

owner, manager and developer of real estate, as well

as an employer. We are taking a thoughtful approach

to climate change action, as well as disclosure. Precinct

is fully supportive of a low-carbon future for Aotearoa

New Zealand.

Climate change is important to Precinct as a real

estate organisation due to its potential impact on

property values, insurance costs, and risk management.

As temperatures rise and extreme weather events

become more frequent and severe, properties in general

face increased vulnerability to damage from floods,

storm events, wildfires, and other natural disasters. Our

organisation takes this into consideration, alongside

transition risks and climate change opportunities, when

assessing investment risks and making strategic decisions

about property development and management. We

understand and utilise current advice about the various

ways we can address climate change to enhance the

long-term sustainability and profitability of our business. 

This report is approved on behalf of Precinct Properties

New Zealand Limited and Precinct Properties Investments

Limited on 28th October 2025.

Disclaimer

This report sets out Precinct’s current understanding of,

and response to, climate-related risks and opportunities

as they impact Precinct as at 28th October 2025, and

the current and anticipated impacts of climate change,

which may evolve over time. Climate change is an

evolving challenge, with high levels of uncertainty.  By its

nature, this report contains forward looking statements,

including climate scenarios, targets, assumptions, climate

projections, forecasts, statements of future intentions,

estimates and judgements. Forward looking statements

involve assumptions, forecasts and projections about

Precinct’s present and future strategies and the

environment in which Precinct will operate in the

future, which are inherently uncertain and subject to

limitations. While Precinct has taken reasonable care

in making these forward-looking statements, these

statements, together with the risks and opportunities

described in this report, and the strategies to achieve our

targets as set out in this report, may not eventuate or

may be more or less significant than anticipated. There

are many factors that could cause actual results,

performance or achievement of climate-related metrics

and targets to differ materially from that described,

many of which are outside of Precinct’s control, including

economic and technological viability, as well as climatic,

government, consumer, and market factors. As such,

Precinct cautions reliance on this report, which may be

necessarily less reliable than Precinct's other external

reporting. Nothing in this report should be interpreted as

legal, financial, tax, earnings or other advice or guidance.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Precinct disclaims

any liability arising from statements made in, or omitted

from, this report.

Statement of
Compliance

Precinct Properties Group06

Precinct Properties New Zealand Limited (PPNZ) and
Precinct Properties Investments Limited (PPIL) (together,

Precinct) are both climate reporting entities (CREs) under

the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013 (FMCA). 

PPNZ and PPIL have been granted an exemption from

the FMCA, the Financial Markets Conduct (Climate

Statements – Precinct Properties Group) Exemption Notice

2024 (Exemption Notice), which permits PPNZ and PPIL,

subject to conditions set out in the exemption notice,

to prepare climate statements in respect of Precinct,

while they remain stapled (in place of separate climate

statements for each company).

These climate-related disclosures comply with the

Aotearoa New Zealand Climate Standards (NZ CS 1, 2,

and 3) issued by the External Reporting Board, subject to

the Exemption Notice.

In preparing this second report, Precinct has elected to

use the following exemptions as referenced in NZ CS 2:

Governance
Board of Directors

The governance body responsible for oversight of

climate-related risks and opportunities at Precinct is our

Board of Directors. Full Director bios can be found on

Precinct's website.

Precinct’s Board of Directors established an ESG

Committee in May 2021 to assist with implementing and

monitoring the Company’s strategic objectives in relation

to ESG issues and other key risks (including sustainability

and climate-related risks) having regard to Precinct’s

circumstances and portfolio of businesses. However, the

Board retains ultimate oversight of climate-related risks

and opportunities. The Board evaluates the performance

and work of the ESG Committee together with the Chair

of the ESG Committee. As part of this process, the Board

undertakes an annual review of the ESG Committee’s

objectives and activities in terms of its responsibilities as

set out in the ESG Committee Charter.

Upon the recommendation of the People and

Performance Committee, the Board approves Precinct’s

people-focussed policies and processes to support

Precinct to deliver on its long-term strategies and goals.

This includes evaluating the competencies required of

Directors and considering the setting of any performance-

based metrics that seek to link executive remuneration

to Precinct’s climate-related targets as part of the

annual remuneration process and short-term incentive

(STI, annual performance-based bonuses) framework.

These targets underpin those noted within the Metrics

& Targets section of the Climate Statement. In FY25,

remuneration for our Executive and Senior Management

team was not directly linked to climate-related targets.

However, from FY26 we plan to include a specific climate-

related risks and opportunities component in Precinct’s

STI bonus scheme.

The Board of Directors is informed on climate-related

risks and opportunities by Management on a quarterly

basis through a standing climate-related section in

Board reporting with further in-depth updates provided

during ESG Committee meetings which occur at

least tri-annually. In these ESG Committee meetings,

Management provides the Board of Directors with an

update on progress against established material risks and

opportunities which are addressed accordingly. In FY25,

the minimum frequency of ESG Committee meetings

has increased from bi-annual to tri-annual following the

introduction of an additional ESG Committee meeting

dedicated to the Climate Related Disclosures. The Board

also considers climate risks and opportunities on an ad-

hoc (out of cycle) basis as needs arise, for example in

relation to any acquisition as part of the Board sign-off

process on due diligence and feasibility, and in decisions

to divest properties. A table setting out the number of

Board and Management engagements during FY25 is set

out in Appendix 5.

As part of its annual business planning, the Board

integrates climate-related risks and opportunities into

its development of Precinct’s overall ESG strategy,

framework and initiatives.

The Board of Directors also has oversight over Precinct’s

performance against its metrics and targets. The

introduction of new, or adjustment of existing, significant

and strategic climate-related metrics and targets is

discussed and agreed by the Board, having received the

recommendation of the ESG Committee. Once agreed,

Precinct’s performance against its climate-related metrics

and targets is discussed as a standing item within the

ESG Committee reporting. 

Board of Directors skills and competencies

Precinct’s current Directors' skills matrix can be found

in Precinct’s 2025 Annual Report available on Precinct's

website. The Directors' skills matrix reflects the director

attributes which the Board considers are required

to oversee Precinct’s strategic business objectives.

Sustainability, which includes climate-related matters, is

one of the ten capabilities against which directors assess

their current skills.

Specific programmes undertaken by directors include:

•Anne Urlwin, Chair of the Board,

–New Zealand Institute of Directors’ Advanced

Climate Governance Programme (FY24)

•Nicola Greer, Chair of the ESG Committee

–New Zealand Institute of Directors’ Climate

Change Governance Essentials Course (FY24)

–Cambridge Institute for Sustainability

Leadership (CISL) Non-Executive Director

Programme (FY25)

Management informs the Board of Directors of

recommended climate-related training and education

within ESG Committee meetings.

ESG Committee
The ESG Committee assists the Board's oversight of

climate-related risks and opportunities and is comprised

of four of Precinct's independent directors. During FY25

the ESG Committee held four committee meetings,

each followed by an ESG Committee report to the

Board. Precinct’s Head of Sustainability provides updates

at these meetings to the ESG Committee (and the

Board), including on operational progress around ESG

and climate-related risk and opportunity management.

Precinct's CEO, Deputy CEO, CFO and other key

representatives are invited to attend these committee

meetings to set objectives, review Precinct’s Climate

Risk Register, track updates and discuss and approve

current and future strategic initiatives which help manage

Precinct’s impacts on the economy, environment and

people. The ESG Committee can seek independent

professional advice and invite expert third parties to

attend meetings to ensure appropriate climate-related

skills and competencies are available to the Board.

The Committee is guided by the ESG Committee Charter

(available in Precinct's Corporate Governance Manual

on Precinct's website), which requires the Committee to,

among other things:

•review and recommend for Board approval the

climate-related strategy, framework and initiatives;

•oversee the implementation of Precinct’s

Sustainability Policy and practices;

•oversee the identification, preparation and review

of climate related risks and opportunities ahead of

incorporating into the Audit and Risk Committee

(ARC) risk register;

•assess and recommend to the Board any changes

to Precinct’s climate change risk management

framework and processes; and

•assist in the review of other key internal policies

to support effective consideration of climate-

related issues.

The ESG Committee recommends climate-related metrics

and targets to the Board. The Board approves metrics

and targets, except those that are operational in

nature, which do not require Board approval. Once

approved, the Board delegates responsibility for

monitoring performance against climate-related targets

to the ESG Committee, the ESG sub-committees and

Management. The ESG Committee also has oversight

of the climate scenarios in the Strategy section of this

report. In FY25, following the recommendation of the ESG

Committee, the Board reconfirmed the climate scenarios

approved in FY24. As outlined in the ESG Committee

Charter, the Chair of the ESG Committee is required to

report back to the Board no less than three times a year

on key points of discussion at ESG Committee meetings,

including the progress toward strategic climate-related

targets and the efficacy of associated performance

metrics, and present the recommendations of the ESG

Committee at the next scheduled meeting of the Board. 

Audit and Risk Committee

The Audit and Risk Committee (ARC) assists the

Board in overseeing Precinct’s climate-related risks. The

Committee oversees Precinct’s primary risk register and

reviews it at least quarterly with Management to track

existing risks and the emergence of new risks. Key

climate-related risks are included in a separate register

alongside Precinct's primary risk register and reported

to the Board along with an evaluation of the strategic

ramifications of the risks.

Following the recommendation of the ESG Committee,

the ARC’s role with respect to oversight of the CRD

process includes:

•reviewing draft climate related

disclosure documentation;

•ensuring due process is followed in order to achieve

compliance with FMCA/NZCS1-3 requirements;

•engaging external consultants to provide verification

and/or assurance as required; and

•recommending that the Board approve the CRD.

The ARC meets at least every quarter (FY25: five

meetings) and reports back to the Board in respect to

financial reporting, compliance and risk management

which includes climate-related risks.

Executive and Senior Management

Led by Precinct’s Chief Executive Officer, Precinct’s

Executive team is collectively responsible for the execution

and delivery of Precinct’s sustainability strategy, including

managing climate-related risks and opportunities.

Management’s role in assessing and managing climate-

related risks and opportunities is to ensure the impacts of

transition and physical risks to the business are reported

and integrated into key workstreams. Management

updates the Board on a regular basis through the ESG

Committee and the ARC.

Precinct's Chief Financial Officer oversees Precinct’s

sustainability strategy and is primarily informed about

climate-related risks and opportunities through updates

from the Head of Sustainability during weekly one on

one meetings alongside weekly group meetings with

the Finance and Analytics teams. Performance against

climate-related metrics and targets along with updates

on Precinct's management of climate-related risks and

opportunities are presented based on key workstreams

of four internal ESG sub-committees which are detailed

below. Precinct’s Head of Sustainability reports directly

to Precinct’s Chief Financial Officer and is responsible for

managing and assessing Precinct’s climate-related risks

and opportunities. Precinct has an additional dedicated

ESG resource and seeks advice from specialist external

sustainability consultants as and when required. 

The full Executive Team and bios can be found on

Precinct's website.

ESG Sub-Committees

Precinct’s Head of Sustainability provides weekly updates

to the CFO, Finance, and Analytics teams on the ESG sub-

committees focused on climate-related initiatives, risks,

and opportunities. These sub-committees are responsible

for assessing, actioning and driving climate-related

issues (including climate-related risks and opportunities),

tracking performance against climate-related metrics

and targets, and embedding Precinct’s long-term

sustainability strategy into business operations. The ESG

sub-committees cover four key focus areas and include

representatives from across the business:

•Building Developments - meet quarterly;

•Building Operations - meet monthly;

•Corporate, Legal & Marketing - meet quarterly; and

•Finance & Acquisitions - meet bi-annually.

Strategy
Precinct Properties Group14

This section outlines
Precinct’s climate scenario

analysis, identified risks

and opportunities, and

the current and expected

impacts of climate change.

It also highlights how we’re

positioning the business

for a low-emissions, climate-

resilient future.

Precinct recognises sustainability (including

managing climate-related risks and

opportunities) is an important part of

our business activities. Our sustainability

strategy has been designed in parallel with

Precinct's broader business strategy. As a

publicly listed real estate investment company

that specialises in owning, developing, and

managing premium inner-city properties in

Auckland and Wellington, we recognise

our role in generating, and regenerating,

sustainable value.

Precinct’s three strategic pillars are a core office

portfolio, a proven track record to create new world-

class real estate and our capital partnering platform,

all underpinned by a focus on people centric outcomes

in mind. We leverage the integration of our strategic

pillars to create vibrant, mixed-use precincts that provide

quality experiences for the people who live, visit or come

to work in our spaces, while delivering long-term value

to shareholders.

We have defined sustainability at Precinct as

enabling sustainable and successful business,

improving our operational performance and

incorporating sustainable design across our

portfolio of properties.

Our sustainable value is fuelled by Precinct's

principles of success:

• focus on strategic locations;

• maintain and grow client occupier

(tenant) relationships;

• invest in quality assets and environments;

• maintain a long-term view;

• leverage Precinct’s people and its platform; and

• identify, cultivate, and maintain strong long

term capital partnerships.

Precinct has maintained our focus on climate

change as one of the core components of

our materiality assessment, informed by key

stakeholders, initially completed in 2019 and

validated annually by a desktop review.

Precinct’s ‘double materiality’ approach

As proposed by the XRB (NZ CS3 [38]), Precinct has

adopted a broad approach to assessing and acting on

current climate-related impacts across our operations.

Summarising our approach to identifying and managing

climate risks, Precinct assesses both:

•Impacts on us – in considering how our business will

be affected by climate change, we have pursued

detailed analysis across our portfolio to understand

the extent of physical and transition risks and

opportunities expected to occur under the three

climate-related scenarios detailed in this section.

•Impacts by us - by analysing our Scope 1, 2 and

full value chain Scope 3 emissions, we are able to

better understand the impact our business has on

contributing to our changing climate. This also assists

us to prioritise our efforts to make a difference in our

Strategy
supply chain alongside our industry peers and more

broadly across industry.

This approach, known as double materiality, considers

both how climate change affects our business and how

our business contributes to climate change. For Precinct,

this means recognising that we are impacted by climate

impacts, while also acknowledging our role in influencing

those impacts as part of the real estate sector.

Climate scenario analysis

To understand the resilience of Precinct’s business model

and response to climate-related risks and opportunities,

we have relied on internal resources and working groups

as well as external advice to develop our climate

scenarios. These climate scenarios were developed and

reviewed by the ESG Committee and were approved

by the Board on the ESG Committee’s recommendation

in FY24 and reconfirmed by the Board on the ESG

Committee's recommendation in FY25.

Climate-related risks and opportunities are integrated as

part of Precinct's broader strategy processes. However,

the climate scenario analysis is currently a standalone

process. To support the establishment of a consistent

baseline for the property industry in New Zealand,

Precinct participated in workshops organised by the

New Zealand Green Building Council (NZGBC). These

workshops, facilitated by engineering firm Beca, aimed to

develop three climate scenarios for the Construction and

Property sector. The resulting scenarios were published in

May 2023 by the NZGBC in its report, Climate Scenarios

for the Construction and Property Sector: Ngā Horopaki

Āhuarangi mō te Rāngai Hanganga me ngā Whare.

A summary of the sources of data used to prepare

these climate scenarios is set out in Appendix 2. The

full NZGBC report, which includes a detailed description

of the scenario development process, data sources,

and further information regarding the assumptions and

data behind each scenario (including for example

sequestration from afforestation and nature-based

solutions), is available here.

Like many of our peers in the Construction and

Property sector, Precinct has adopted the narrative, key

assumptions, and conditions outlined in these climate

scenarios. We believe these scenarios are well-suited

for assessing the resilience of our business model and

strategy, as they were developed specifically for our

sector with guidance from the NZGBC, and aligned

with the working draft of the XRB’s guidance, Scenario

Analysis: Getting Started at the Sector Level

(2022). An

updated version has not been issued at the time of this

Climate Statement.

We consider the scenarios represent a plausible

and challenging description of how the future may

develop based on a coherent and internally consistent

set of assumptions about key driving forces and

relationships impacting the Construction and Property

sector, covering both physical and transition risks

alongside anticipated opportunities.

However, Precinct acknowledges that while these

scenarios provide a consistent baseline, individual

property companies are responsible for interpreting and

applying them as best suited to their specific operations.

Accordingly, Precinct has conducted its own assessment

of the sector scenarios to identify areas material to

our business. Through this process, we have identified

key risks and opportunities relevant to our operations.

In addition to utilising the scenarios prepared by the

NZGBC, Precinct has undertaken our own modelling with

external specialists and conducted workshops using the

Construction and Property Sector Scenarios as set out

in further detail in the

Risk Management section of

this report. Inputs to our own modelling have utilised

much of the same anticipated scenarios and time

horizons to ensure consistency however, slight deviations

between our choice of analytics software and the NZGBC

reporting variables are noted below for transparency.

This section also details the use of S&P Climanomics

software platform (a climate risk analytics tool) to

support the quantification and impact of identified risks

and opportunities.

To support our scenario analysis, we selected the S&P

Global Climanomics® platform due to its alignment

with regulatory expectations, scientific robustness, and

financial relevance.

Climanomics enables structured, forward-looking

assessments of climate-related risks and opportunities,

consistent with the TCFD framework and NZ CS 1–

3. It uses CMIP6 climate models, NASA’s NEX-GDDP

downscaled projections, and peer-reviewed science to

model 9 physical hazards (e.g. extreme heat, flooding,

cyclones). Outputs are provided in both absolute and

relative financial terms across four emissions scenarios

and eight decades, allowing us to quantify risk at the

asset and portfolio level.

Precinct Properties Group

16

We chose Climanomics because it:
•Aligns well with global SSPs, NZGBC scenario

guidance and is utilised by other peer

reporting entities

•Provides credible, investor-grade financial risk outputs

•Supports site-specific adaptation planning

•Allows offline adjustment for local mitigation

measures (e.g. flood barriers), ensuring disclosures

reflect realistic risk exposure

This approach ensures our scenario analysis is both

scientifically grounded and decision-useful, while meeting

NZ CS requirements for transparency and audit readiness.

Precinct note that the analysis completed through S&P

Climanomics that underpins the materiality of impact

across risks and opportunities differs in the application

of Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) per the

below table. Narratives describing these differences have

been introduced to the NZGBC developed scenarios on

the following pages to ensure robustness of reporting.

Precinct note the Climanomics SSPs present a more likely

low/orderly and high/hot house world where the impacts

are expected to be far more extreme for the lower and

higher scenarios.

Precinct defines its time horizons based on the economic

life cycle of its assets, typically spanning 50 to 60 years.

The table below outlines the time horizons used by

Precinct in our scenario analysis approach, consistent

with the NZGBC’s sector-specific guidance and the

typical economic life of building structures:

Time HorizonPeriodDescription

Short-termPresent

- 2030

Short-term risks are those

that may impact near-term

financial results including

income, operating costs

and increased repairs

and maintenance.

Medium-

term

2031 -

2050

Medium-term risks include

climate related impacts that

may impact our financial

results from 2030 onward.

These impacts may require

Precinct to adjust core

elements of its strategy.

Long-term2051 -

2100

Precinct’s assets generally have

a 50-year life cycle, therefore

buildings in planning, under

development and approaching

completion will be subject to

these long-term conditions and

the risks that may impact

the financial viability and long-

term strategy of Precinct.

Under this methodology, and reflected in our scenario

analysis, asset value reverts to land value once

the 60-year horizon is reached, reflecting Precinct’s

expectations around asset recycling and refurbishment.

It acknowledges that assets are unlikely to retain

full value beyond their intended lifecycle of 50-60

years at a point in time when assessing current and

future anticipated financial impacts. This adjustment to

our methodology enhances the accuracy of scenario

analysis and supports strategic planning. Crucially, this

methodology reflects the annual climate reporting cycle

and the obligations placed on reporting entities under

the climate reporting regime to connect to annual

financial reporting. Once future strategic plans, such

as asset development or refurbishment works, are

approved through Precinct’s governance processes, they

will be transparently disclosed and incorporated into

financial impact assessments within the climate-related

disclosure statement.

Strategy
An orderly transition to a decarbonised society by 2050, resulting in a Net Zero grid with near-zero emissions,

would significantly impact both the economy and energy sector. International energy-intensive industries would

be attracted, boosting industrial activity. However, electricity prices would rise due to increased pressure on the

grid, and there would be shortfalls in generation capacity as demand for electricity grows. It is expected that

assets located in central CBD locations will be prioritised for service restoration. Additionally, the cost of carbon

would increase to $250 per tonne of CO

-equivalent, reflecting the higher cost of emitting carbon in this new

landscape. In addition to transitioning to a Net Zero grid by 2050, society will experience a range of impacts due

to increased rainfall intensity (6%) and the necessary medium-term capital expenditure for fossil fuel removal and

energy efficiency retrofits driven by short-term carbon disclosures. Contractors will shift their focus to refurbishments

rather than new builds due to the high carbon intensity of new construction projects. There will be a significant rise

in investment in Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technology as one of the primary decarbonisation tools for

hard-to-abate fossil fuel use. Short-term pressures from investors and customers to meet the 1.5-degree reduction

target will lead to financial penalties from lenders, including restricted access to capital, government funding

limitations, and adjusted interest rates. Sustainable and decarbonised buildings will be prioritised for premium

occupiers subject to their own net zero and climate-related targets. Additionally, the number of hot days will

increase by 40%, and a reduction in urban sprawl to decarbonise infrastructure will result in more inner-city

high-rise residential developments. Properties in floodplains or areas with unstable ground conditions will face

rising insurance premiums above inflation and a retreat by 2050. There will be public and private support for

workers in high-intensity industries and professions. New Zealand’s population is expected to grow to 6.13 million by

2050, with 23.3% of the population being elderly. In consideration of carbon sequestration from afforestation and

nature-based solutions, a coordinated effort between government, businesses and communities to preserve and

enhance ecosystems would take place led by government incentives, targeted projects and a well considered land

use strategy. These strategies would likely incorporate native planting and regeneration projects.

A disorderly transition to a decarbonised society would result in severe consequences for both the environment and
the economy. The increase in the severity of weather events, coupled with a decline in public and private adaptation

measures, would lead to declining property values and rising insurance premiums. Delays in action during the 2020s

would cause a surge of capital to flood the market around 2030, incentivising rapid innovation. Assets that fail to

decarbonise on schedule would be offloaded in large quantities due to abrupt short-term regulations. The carbon

price would spike to $250 per ton of CO

2

-e by 2050, leading to significant gaps in equality and industry compliance.

Electricity prices would experience sharp increases due to the need for fossil fuel peak demand generation, resulting

in considerable generation capacity shortfalls as the grid transitions to higher electricity end-use demand over

a shorter time horizon. Budget constraints for energy security related infrastructure will lead to capital spend

concentrated in CBD areas with assets located in central CBD locations also prioritised for service restoration. Hard-

to-abate construction materials would not decarbonise using CCS technology until the medium term, causing high

prices and supply shortages for low-carbon materials. In 2030, the government would issue mandatory low-carbon

building regulations to an unprepared industry, drastically raising construction and retrofit costs overnight. Rapid

decarbonisation requirements from 2030 would exacerbate inequality and cause community disharmony. Massive

supply chain disruptions would force New Zealand organisations to participate more in the global market. However,

the global market may not see New Zealand as a viable trading partner where higher volumes of decarbonised

products would be more lucrative in larger markets.  Additionally, there would be increased investment in road-

based infrastructure, followed by a rapid shift in transport regulations to decarbonise transport by 2030. In a

disorderly scenario, carbon sequestration from afforestation and nature-based solutions would unfold through

fragmented and inconsistent efforts, with limited coordination between government, businesses, and communities.

Government incentives and land use strategies would be unclear or poorly implemented, leading to ad-hoc projects

that often prioritise short-term gains over long-term ecosystem preservation.

A ‘hot house’ transition to a decarbonised society would lead to an increase in the severity of weather events and

a decline in both public and private adaptation measures. Extreme wind speeds (increasing by 5-10%), rainfall

intensity (increasing by 8.6%), and a 100% increase in hot days would become more common. Global delays

in decarbonisation efforts would cause disjointed capital supply, hindering market funding for decarbonisation.

Government support would be redirected to critical infrastructure and services, leaving other assets increasingly

stranded from 2030. The carbon price would remain low at $35 per ton of CO

2

-e by 2050, providing little incentive

for significant carbon emission reductions from major users. Sharp increases and price shocks in electricity prices

would occur to accommodate fossil fuel peak demand generation, with considerable shortfalls in generation

capacity exacerbated by severe weather impacts on energy supply. Budget constraints for energy security related

infrastructure will lead to highly reactive capital spend concentrated in CBD areas with critical assets located in

central CBD locations prioritised for service restoration. Procuring decarbonised materials on the global market

would be nearly impossible for New Zealand, as larger markets would be prioritised first.

In a hot house scenario, carbon sequestration from afforestation and nature-based solutions would be largely

sidelined as the focus shifts to short-term economic survival and crisis management in the face of escalating

climate impacts. Government, businesses, and communities would be reactive rather than proactive, with little

attention to long-term land use strategies or environmental stewardship, and native planting would be neglected in

favour of immediate, unsustainable exploitation of resources.

Climate-related impacts
The following tables outline our climate-related risks and opportunities as detailed in Precinct's Climate Risk Register,

alongside their current and anticipated physical and transition impacts and the time horizons over which we expect each

risk or opportunity to impact an estimated proportion of our portfolio. These impacts have been identified as having direct

relevance to Precinct’s business strategy and management. Although we have disclosed the current impacts for Precinct

that we have identified arising from the climate-related risks and opportunities listed in the table below, we consider that

during the reporting period, none of these impacts were material, and they did not result in any material financial impacts

with respect to Precinct’s business (as defined by our risk assessment threshold). Despite this, we have continued to progress

a number of actions and mitigations related to each risk (as outlined below), and have advanced our efforts to leverage

opportunities. As we continue to review and update Precinct's Climate Risk , our understanding of risks will evolve and be

reflected in each annual Climate Statement.

Physical and Transition Risks

The severity of each risk across Precinct’s portfolio has been assessed and expressed as estimated percentages, reflecting

asset vulnerability to physical and transition risks in line with CS1 compliance [22(c) and (d)].

Physical and Transition Opportunities

The impact of each opportunity across Precinct’s portfolio has been evaluated and expressed qualitatively, representing

the operational benefits derived from activities associated with both physical and transition climate-related opportunities.

Precinct acknowledges the inherent subjectivity involved in evaluating current and future financial opportunities linked to

climate change. In advance of more detailed analysis, management provides this current estimate of how the identified

factors are expected to influence our business. This impact is expressed as qualitative commentary only based on the

definitions below.

MarketMarket risks involve the effects of transitioning to a low-carbon and

climate resilient economy, impacting both the supply and demand

for various products and services considering consumer and investor

preferences. In the real estate sector, these risks include a growing

preference for green buildings by current and future occupiers and

investors. As these groups increasingly favour decarbonised assets

this risks leaving 'brown' assets stranded and devalued. There is

also the risk of increasing capital needed to develop new assets

through the increased cost of raw/virgin materials and competition for

Tier 1 contractors that can achieve the required performance during

construction especially as rating tools become more common place.

This in turn may apply pressure on the capacity and capability of

the labour force to meet expectations of performance both in asset

development and operation. Businesses occupying space in our assets

are also subject to screening by the market to check if their products

and services are meeting market expectations. Additionally, the industry

will experience a rising cost of utility prices and insurance premiums.

Carbon

Price

The transition risk of carbon pricing refers to the economic,

financial, and operational risks that businesses face as

governments, influential stakeholders and regulatory bodies

implement policies to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

Carbon pricing is a policy-driven economic tool for directly costing

GHG emissions. When transitioning to a low carbon economy,

carbon pricing makes carbon-intensive activities less financially

attractive and incentivises low-emissions practices and behaviour.

In the real estate sector, these risks include increased operating

costs due to higher energy prices, the potential for reduced

profitability if carbon-intensive building materials or processes

are penalised, and the need for costly retrofitting or upgrades

to meet emissions reduction targets. The transition can further

be complicated by unpredictable costs due to variations in

climate change trajectories as well as the potential for financial

heightened insurance premiums. Cyclone-related disruptions can delay

construction projects, reduce tenant demand in high-risk areas, and

increase operational costs due to the need for frequent maintenance

and infrastructure upgrades to meet new resilience standards.

independent of rivers or other bodies of water leading to localised

flooding impacting the built environment. For the real estate sector,

this presents the risk of water damage to buildings, particularly in

basements or lower floors, and increased wear on infrastructure. Pluvial

flooding can disrupt access to properties, increase maintenance costs,

extreme weather events, exacerbated by climate change. This poses

significant risks to the built environment, infrastructure, ecosystems, and

economies, particularly in low-lying coastal areas. For real estate this

Extreme heat refers to chronic prolonged periods of high temperatures

that surpass historical norms, presenting significant risks to both the

built environment and natural systems. In the real estate sector,

these risks include increased energy demand for cooling, higher

operational and maintenance costs, accelerated wear and tear on

building materials, reduced occupant comfort, and potential health

risks for client occupiers and employees. Extreme heat can also lead

to decreased property values in affected areas and disruptions to

Strategy
Transition Planning

Precinct continues to make meaningful progress in transition planning, aligned with our strategy to develop, own, and

manage high-quality, sustainable, and resilient assets. Our time-bound goal of achieving and maintaining Net Zero by 2030

across our operational emissions, consistent with the WGBC’s Net Zero Building Commitment, anchors our pragmatic and

focused approach.

We monitor performance against our targets, metrics, and KPIs via our internal ESG dashboard, and submit datasets to

external parties for validation. Industry feedback plays a key role in shaping our reporting practices and ensuring alignment

with evolving expectations around decarbonisation.

Our transition plan also considers the broader implications of a changing climate across business operations. Through

our findings from the sector-specific scenario analysis, we have continued to assess plausible future climate impacts and

seek to embed mitigation and adaptation strategies to manage risks and capture opportunities. In shaping our future-

focused transition planning, including the alignment of capital deployment, Precinct integrates climate-related risks and

opportunities from Precinct's Climate Risk Register into business case assessments, investment decisions, and funding of

group initiatives.

The following considerations currently inform our approach with committed capital deployment outlined in our KPI's and

Risk Management
This section describes

Precinct’s processes for

identifying, assessing and

managing climate-related

risks and how this is

integrated into Precinct’s risk

management processes.

Precinct’s processes for identifying,

assessing and managing climate-

related risks are integrated into our

overall risk management process and

recorded in Precinct’s Climate Risk

Register. This process is facilitated by

the Audit and Risk Committee and

overseen by the ESG Committee.

The Committee is guided by the ESG Committee

Charter (available in Precinct's Corporate

Governance Manual on Precinct's website), which

requires the Committee to:

•Review and recommend for Board approval

the ESG strategy, framework and initiatives;

•Oversee the implementation of Precinct’s

Sustainability Policy and practices; and

•Oversee the preparation and review of

climate related risks and opportunities ahead

of incorporating into Precinct's risk register.

(by extension Precinct's Climate Risk Register)

Identifying Risks

The ARC is tasked with reviewing Precinct’s risk register,

together with the separate dedicated Climate Risk

Register, which captures identified climate-related risks

that may impact Precinct, at least quarterly. There is a

standing reference to 'Climate related risks & disclosure'

in Precinct's risk register that refers the ARC to the

standalone Climate Risk Register for further detail.

New risks for inclusion in Precinct's Climate Risk Register

may be identified by the ESG sub-committees, ESG

Committee, senior and executive management, or other

staff at Precinct. These potential new risks are submitted

to the ARC for evaluation. The process of identifying

risks, as well as assessing their scope, size, and impact,

uses information from several external sources (as

relevant), including:

•GRESB Climate Risk & Resilience Scorecard, which

provides location-specific intelligence on climate

change and environmental exposure.

•S&P Global Climanomics, a climate risk analytics

platform to identify and measure climate risk across

Precinct’s assets.

•Guidance and commentary from industry

organisations including the NZGBC.

•Discussions with stakeholders along the value chain,

including suppliers, client occupiers, contractors, and

councils (local government).

•Engagement with external engineering and

sustainability consultants, including in the

preparation of:

–Climate Adaptation Plans

during development;

–Climate risk screening undertaken as part of

due diligence reporting for acquisitions; and

–Portfolio-wide climate risk modelling and site-

based visits.

Climate change is a unique risk category in particular

because no part of the value chain is immune from

its impacts. However, some parts are more vulnerable

than others. A key workstream for Precinct has been to

continue to refine the boundaries of our value chain for

the purpose of climate risk analysis and identify areas or

relationships of vulnerability.  In FY25, to the best of our

knowledge, no parts of our value chain were excluded for

the purpose of our risk assessment.

Precinct Properties Group

34

Assessing & Managing Risks
Precinct assesses and manages climate-related risks as part of its broader risk management framework.

Once potential risks are identified, we carry out a threshold materiality assessment to identify those risks that will be added

to Precinct’s risk register and Climate Risk Register. When evaluating materiality thresholds for reporting, we consider the

impact, time horizon, likelihood, and nature of the risk, including whether the risk is physical or transitional. Only those risks

that are added to our registers are disclosed in this CRD.

Risks that are added to our risk registers are then assigned a materiality rating (low/medium/high/very high) using

Precinct’s risk management framework, consistent with the assessment approach disclosed in

Climate-Related Impacts

on Page 21. Materiality ratings are determined using both quantitative and qualitative analysis, including internal modelling,

external data, and expert advice. The same process informs both Precinct's Climate Risk Register and the disclosures in

this statement.

Climate-related risks are reviewed tri-annually by the ESG Committee and quarterly by the ARC, which supports Board

oversight. Higher rated risks (rated medium or higher) are considered in more detail by the Board, ESG Committee, and ARC.

Risks deemed ‘actual’ are included in Precinct’s Climate Risk Register for ongoing evaluation by the Board. All of these risks

are disclosed in this statement.

These assessments are informed by both quantitative and qualitative analysis, including internal modelling using bespoke

software and local datasets, and, where appropriate, advice from external specialists, per below:

1Although climate-related risks are contained within Precinct's Climate Risk Register, these risks are prioritised using the same process as

other key business risks in Precinct's risk register. There are no separate processes for prioritising climate-related risks compared to other key

business risks.

Precinct continues to refine its approach by:

•Reviewing thresholds for elevating potential risks to actual risks;

•Enhancing processes for assessing financial and operational impacts;

•Aligning time horizons with industry best practice advice (e.g. NZGBC Construction and Property Sector

Climate Scenarios);

•Further integrating climate considerations into our general risk framework.

Recognising the inherent uncertainty in climate risk assessments, Precinct monitors emerging tools and methodologies to

improve understanding of risk scope, timing, and impact.

Climate risks, both physical and transitional, are prioritised alongside other key business risks. They are actively integrated

into acquisition, capital deployment and funding decisions, particularly those outlined in the Transition Plan. In addition,

Board papers, scenario analysis and insights from Precinct's Climate Risk Register inform targeted CAPEX across new

developments

1

and existing assets.

1

As well as the approach described above, for new development projects, Precinct also conducts granular, site-specific Climate Adaptation

Plans through third-party engineering and consulting teams, in line with NZGBC climate adaptation credit criteria, to identify and assess

bespoke climate-related risks. These findings are embedded within the risk management tracking for each individual development project.

Our approach to reviewing climate-related risks
The following process outlines Precinct’s approach to conducting annual reviews of climate-related risks. This involves both

qualitative and quantitative analyses to enable a comprehensive understanding and appropriate revision of the risks across

plausible scenarios relevant to Precinct’s operations. As part of this review, we assess current climate-related risks and

consider recommendations to mitigate and adapt to anticipated risks.

Precinct’s portfolio

assessment methodology

S&P Global Climanomics and GRESB reporting to assess specific risks across

Precinct’s portfolio against industry specific benchmark (NZGBC’s Climate

Scenarios for the Construction and Property Sector released in 2023).

Where significant risks are identified as

'high' or 'extreme'

If risks indicate a 'high' or 'extreme' value loss according to Precinct's internal

materiality assessment, further granular investigation is undertaken against the

risk. This activity serves to more accurately quantify potential costs and impact.

An example of this for the FY25 reporting period, Precinct engaged with external

specialists, engineering consultants, Mott MacDonald to review the draft FY25

transition risk assessment which included a focus group, workshops and industry

research of transition risk and opportunities across Precinct’s portfolio specific to

New Zealand. Where appropriate, the outcome of this review is integrated into the

transition risks section of our climate impacts table.

Quantify physical and transitional

risks identified

Further assessment and modelling is undertaken to quantify potential costs

and impact.

As above, Precinct completed a risk assessment in FY25 which reviewed the risk

severity arising from Transition impacts.

Precinct is continuing to refine the quantification of risks as we work towards

disclosures for FY26.

Mitigate and adapt to future risks

business strategy.

1Note, we have disclosed only the material impacts to our assets. As such, only the physical risks of Pluvial Flooding, Temperature Extremes,

Coastal Inundation and Tropical Cyclones have been disclosed.

Our FY25 Carbon Emissions

Precinct is committed to transparently tracking our emission reduction efforts with a focus of reducing our overall carbon

footprint in line with the GHG Protocol and ISO 14064-1:2018. Below is a snapshot of our carbon emissions across Scope 1

(direct emissions from owned or controlled sources), Scope 2 (indirect emissions from purchased energy), and Scope 3 (other

indirect emissions occurring across our value chain). In addition, we have included a detailed breakdown of these figures

against FY23 and FY24.

(see Category 2: Embodied Carbon - Other, Category 3: Electricity & Gas WTT, Category 11: Use of Sold Products and Category 12: End-of-Life

Treatment of Sold Products). Category 2: Embodied Carbon from New Developments has led to a significant increase in Scope 3 emissions

due to Precinct's development pipeline and construction completion activity during the period. A separate table distinguishing a kg CO

2

-e / m2

metric has been included to demonstrate improvement over a minimum performance baseline.

2Not reported in FY23 based on lack of available datasets.

3Market-based method emissions have been applied and affect the calculation of these categories as well as Scope 2.

Scope 3 - Category 2: Embodied Carbon from New Developments

Below are development projects completed during the period (FY25) by Precinct in Category 2: Embodied Carbon from

New Developments. Each project has been assured by Toitū with A1-A5 emissions offset with high quality offset units to

international standards. Further detail on Precinct's approach to offsets can be found in this section.

For each project, we assess the construction related project emissions against a standardised baseline, as set out in the

table below:

ProjectYear CompletedKg CO2-e / m2

1

Reduction over Baseline

BECA House - new buildFY2593713%

Bowen House - refurbishmentFY2515974%

30 Mahuhu Crescent - refurbishmentFY255895%

1The 95% reduction in embodied carbon for the refurbishment of 30 Mahuhu Crescent is based on the expected average value outlined by

LETI, as referenced in the As Built carbon assessment provided by BECA. This significant reduction reflects the nature of the project being a

refurbishment rather than a new build, which inherently results in lower embodied carbon compared to the baseline benchmark. The BECA

House and Bowen House reduction over baseline benchmark is from a BAU (business as usual) reference case from the Green Star life cycle

assessment. Note: While the above projects' lifecycle assessment emissions data has been audited as part of Precinct's full value chain

emissions reporting to GHG Protocol and ISO 14064-1:2018 standards, BECA House and Bowen House are not yet certified Green Star As Built at

the time of this climate statement.

Commentary of Changes

Scope 3 emissions make up the bulk of Precinct's GHG inventory (93%). Our overall Scope 3 emissions have increased by

134% in FY25 compared to FY24. Approximately 15% of this is attributable to the inclusion of new categories of emissions this

year, however most of the increase is from our Scope 3 Category 2 emissions, reflecting the completion of 3 building projects

in FY25 (detailed above). Our material Scope 1 emissions have decreased significantly, though much of this is the result of

changes to reporting (data reliability increased, and some emissions shifted to Scope 3), Scope 2 has increased by 48.4%

due to an increase in the number of buildings within the investment portfolio and an increase in the emissions intensity of

the grid.

The table below sets out an analysis of trends evident across our FY24 and FY25 emissions, including commentary on any

changes to scope or approach to particular categories and an explanation of significant changes (+/- 30%) in emissions for

categories deemed to be material to Precinct's overall inventory.

Precinct Toitū Net Carbon Zero Certification

Precinct is a Toitū Net Carbon Zero certified organisation. The Toitū climate impact certification is a voluntary programme

that Precinct participates in as part of our commitment to climate action. This climate impact certification programme

requires adherence to a set of standards and rules on an annual basis. In accordance with the certification programme,

Precinct measures (and seeks to reduce) its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions according to ISO 14064-1: 2018 standards.

Toitū's assurance report was finalised using assurance standard NZ SAE 1: Assurance Engagements over Greenhouse Gas

Emissions Disclosure which can be found in Appendix 3 of this report.

Precinct has been measuring our carbon emissions with Toitū Envirocare across the last 9 years of operational data

(FY17 onwards). Toitū Climate Impact Certification is the only certification in New Zealand that is accredited to certify

to international standards (ISO 14064-1:2018). It offers three certification levels: Carbon Reduce, Net Carbon Zero, and

Climate Positive.

Achieving certification is an annual requirement where an organisation must demonstrate meeting the certification rules.

Certification also provides a credible and independently-verified way to communicate environmental efforts to stakeholders.

Current and prior year statements on Toitū carbon certification can be found here: Toitu member - Precinct Properties New

Zealand Limited.

Consolidation Approach

We utilise the 'operational control' approach (where emissions are included if the organisation has authority over operations)

to consolidating emissions as defined by The Greenhouse Gas Protocol: A Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard,

2004 (GHG Protocol). Organisational boundaries were set with reference to the methodology described in the GHG Protocol

and ISO 14064-1:2018 standards.

Excluded Emissions Sources - Scope 3

Precinct have excluded the following Scope 3 Emissions Categories as immaterial or not relevant to business operations

during the reporting period:

•Category 4: Upstream Transportation and Distribution (immaterial);

•Category 9: Downstream Transportation and Distribution (immaterial);

•Category 10: Processing of Sold Products (not relevant);

•Category 14: Franchises (not relevant);

•Category 15: Investments (not relevant).

Source of Emissions Factors and the Global Warming Potential Rates

A calculation methodology has been used for quantifying the emissions inventory based on the following calculation

approach, unless otherwise stated below: Emissions = activity data x emissions factor

The source of emissions factors used include:

•Ministry for the Environment, 2025. Measuring emissions: A guide for organisations: 2025 detailed guide. (AR5)

Organisational Boundaries for Emissions Reporting
PPNZ and PPIL are listed companies on the NZX who share the same Board of Directors and whose shares are ‘stapled’

together, meaning they can’t be transferred or dealt with separately. PPNZ holds Precinct’s interests in Limited Partnerships

that it has entered into with third parties as well as all of the shares of Precinct Properties Holdings Limited, which in turn

holds all of the Precinct-owned properties.

PPIL owns Precinct’s operating businesses, including Generator / Precinct Flex, Precinct Properties 1 Queen Street Limited

(which owns the Intercontinental Hotel at 1 Queen Street), Commercial Bay Hospitality, Precinct Properties Residential

Holdings Limited and the management company, Precinct Properties Management Limited (PPML). Under the terms of a

management agreement, PPML has been contracted to manage all of the PPNZ property assets as well as the properties

owned by the relevant Limited Partnerships.

Precinct's Organisational Boundary for emissions included in our reporting:

We have included emissions associated with Precinct's activities where Precinct is the:

•Occupier of Commercial office space including Business Operator, Developer and Manager of a co-working business

•Building Owner of Commercial, Retail, Hotel and Education buildings owned in whole or part with joint venture partners

•Property & Facilities Manager of Commercial, Retail, Hotel and Education buildings owned in whole or part with joint

venture partners

•Property & Facilities Manager of Commercial buildings externally owned by others

•Building Developer of Residential, Commercial, Retail, Education and Hotel buildings owned in whole or part with joint

venture partners

•Business Owner of Hospitality venues and Hotel

Precinct's Organisational Boundary for emissions excluded from our reporting:

We have excluded emissions associated with Precinct's activities where Precinct is the:

•Financier of Residential projects not owned by Precinct

Precinct has elected to exclude emissions associated with a one-off mezzanine loan from its Scope 3 Category 15

(Investments) inventory.

The decision is based on guidance from the GHG Protocol Corporate Standard and ISO 14064-1:2018, which allow

organisations to apply materiality thresholds and exclude immaterial financial exposures from quantification. The loan in

question does not involve equity, is non-recurring, and relates to a build-to-sell asset over which Precinct has no operational

or financial control. Including emissions from this arrangement would misrepresent Precinct’s emissions profile and reduce

comparability across reporting periods. A qualitative disclosure has been included to ensure transparency and alignment

with best practice.

Targets

Precinct has elected to set targets that align with those supported by leading sector organisations, the WGBC and the

NZGBC, and provides transparent reporting on our climate-related performance. Details of our approach as well as the

definition of these targets in detail can be found on our website.

During FY22, Precinct began progressing towards, and in early FY23 formally adopted, the WGBC's Net Zero Carbon

Buildings Commitment for 2030. We have relied on WGBC's advice at that time that this Commitment aligns with a 1.5

degree trajectory. As a result we believe the Commitment is the most effective way to support the property industry’s goal

of limiting global warming. The Commitment is designed for the real estate sector, focusing on reducing operational energy

use and upfront carbon emissions, areas that represent over 90% of our portfolio’s environmental impact, as confirmed

through our GHG emissions reporting. This approach also reflects the whole lifecycle impact of buildings and supports

New Zealand’s transition to a low-carbon economy. Included within our Targets table are key elements of this Net Zero

Commitment, including our progress in achieving Green Star and NABERSNZ ratings coverage, which serve as measurable

indicators of our decarbonisation efforts. Precinct’s climate-related targets are summarised in the table below.

1In addition to our WGBC Net Zero Buildings Commitment referenced above, during the reporting period Precinct continued to work towards

having a separate Net Zero target prepared for review by the SBTi.

2Please see the WGBC website for a full explanation of the WGBC Net Zero Buildings commitment.

3The Toitū Net Carbon Zero Emissions certification covers Precinct’s operational emissions as defined by Toitū, which, together with the definition

of 'mandatory boundaries' for measurement and offsetting are located on Toitū's website. See below description in the Offset Units section.

4Since January 2022, conditional requirements have been introduced for all projects pursuing a Green Star rating to demonstrate a minimum

reduction in upfront carbon emissions, minimum efficiency levels for anticipated operational energy use and ecological protection. The

achievement of a Green Star rating for projects registered from January 2022 implies the achievement of a minimum reduction in upfront

carbon emissions, minimum energy efficient design and ecological protection as defined by the Green Star Design & As-Built New Zealand v1.1

& v1.1.1 standards.

5NABERSNZ Energy Base Building ratings range from 0 to 6 stars. These benchmarks are tailored to each building and take into account various

factors, including the percentage of leased space, building use types, and hours of operation, which can vary from year to year and building to

building. Based on this, an absolute target has been set for portfolio coverage to ensure consistency when reporting this target annually. This

target is applied to directly owned assets.

6Homestar is New Zealand’s leading sustainability certification for residential buildings, with ratings ranging from 6 to 10 stars. Ratings reflect

achievement across a wide range of environmentally sustainable design initiatives, including energy efficiency, water conservation, climate

adaptation, indoor health and comfort, and reduced environmental impact.

Precinct Properties Group46

Offset units
Our commitment to the WGBC Net Zero Buildings Commitment by 2030 reflects our focus on achieving our prescriptive

targets as well as retaining our Net Carbon Zero operational footprint through to 2030. To achieve these objectives, Precinct

voluntarily purchases and retires verified offset units to account for all residual Scope 1, Scope 2, and select Scope 3

emissions as defined by Toitū, which, together with the definition of 'mandatory boundaries' for measurement and offsetting

are located on Toitū's website. In addition to this boundary, Precinct voluntarily purchases and retires offset units for upfront

carbon emissions from new developments and major refurbishments in line with our WGBC commitment. This is undertaken

in accordance with the Toitū Net Carbon Zero certification and the WGBC Net Zero Buildings Commitment, with offset

categories aligned to the mandatory boundaries defined within these frameworks.

High quality offset units are purchased by Precinct directly and retired through Toitū to ensure independent verification on

the selection of the units.  In assessing eligible offset units voluntarily procured directly by organisations, Toitū only accept

projects based on their robust three-level approach to due diligence. This due diligence approach was taken in relation to

Precinct's direct purchase of offset units applied to the FY25 certification. Further details related to this eligibility criteria can

be found here. For previous cycles, Precinct has purchased offset units directly through Toitū. The offset type, volume and

project details applied to each certification year through this programme are documented publicly on Toitū's website.

Intensity

Emissions intensity of Precinct's Net Carbon Zero reporting boundary

The decrease from FY24 to FY25 was due to a significant reduction

in reported Scope 1 emissions due to effective on-charging of

natural gas this financial year compared to last, particularly in the

Commercial Bay Retail asset. This reduction was achieved despite

an increase in grid electricity emissions due to increased fossil fuel

electricity generation over the period resulting in increased Scope 2

emissions intensity under a location-based method.

long-term risks. This is due to changes in our methodology assessing

transition risks with external specialists and to reflect the economic life

cycle of assets, typically spanning 50 to 60 years. After this point the

RemunerationIn FY24, executive and senior management STI objectives included ESG criteria weighted at 25%, though not

specifically tied to climate-related risks and opportunities.

Following an annual review in FY25, the Precinct Board reassessed its approach and identified the need to

shift from broad ESG targets to more targeted climate-related metrics. As a result, while FY25 remuneration

did not directly reflect these metrics, the People and Performance Committee has approved a revised STI

structure for FY26 that explicitly incorporates climate-related risks and opportunities.

ClimanomicsClimanomics by S&P Global is a risk analytics platform that calculates the financial impact of climate

risk on physical assets or real estate investments and aggregates up to the portfolio level. Analysis

spans across eight decades for four emissions scenarios. Precinct upload all properties within this

platform for ongoing reviews against the latest climate data.

To support our scenario analysis, we selected the S&P Global Climanomics® platform due to its

alignment with regulatory expectations, scientific robustness, and financial relevance.

Climanomics enables structured, forward-looking assessments of climate-related risks and

opportunities, consistent with the TCFD framework and NZ CS 1–3. It uses CMIP6 climate models,

NASA’s NEX-GDDP downscaled projections, and peer-reviewed science to model 9 physical hazards

(e.g. extreme heat, flooding, cyclones). Outputs are provided in both absolute and relative financial

terms across four emissions scenarios and eight decades, allowing us to quantify risk at the asset and

portfolio level.

We chose Climanomics because it:

•Aligns with global SSPs and NZGBC scenario guidance

•Provides credible, investor-grade financial risk outputs

•Supports site-specific adaptation planning

•Allows offline adjustment for local mitigation measures (e.g. flood barriers), ensuring disclosures

reflect realistic risk exposure

This approach ensures our scenario analysis is both scientifically grounded and decision-useful, while

meeting NZ CS requirements for transparency and audit readiness.

Conclusion
Basis of verification opinion

Toitū Verification and Validation

EMISSIONS - REASONABLE ASSURANCE

We have obtained all the information and explanations we have required. In our opinion, the gross GHG

emissions, additional required disclosures of gross GHG emissions, and gross GHG emissions methods,

assumptions and estimation uncertainty in the climate statements, in all material respects:

+ comply with the Aotearoa New Zealand Climate Standards (NZ CSs) issued by the External Reporti

ng

B

oard (XRB); and

+ provide a true and fair view of the climate statements of Precinct Properties New Zealand Limited

and

P

recinct Properties Investments Limited for the year ended 30 June 2025.

EMISSIONS - LIMITED ASSURANCE

Based on the procedures we have performed and the evidence we have obtained, nothing has come to our

attention that causes us to believe that the gross GHG emissions, additional required disclosures of gross

GHG emissions, and gross GHG emissions methods, assumptions and estimation uncertainty defined in the

climate statements:

+ do not comply with the Aotearoa New Zealand Climate Standards (NZ CSs) issued by the External

Reporting Board (XRB); and

+ do not provide a true and fair view of the climate statements of Precinct Properties New Zealand Limit

ed

and

Precinct Properties Investments Limited for the year ended 30 June 2025.

Webelieve that theaudit evidencewehaveobtainedis sufficientandappropriate toprovidea basis for our

opinion.

To The Shareholders of Precinct Properties New Zealand

Limited and Precinct Properties Investments Limited

EMISSIONS - LIMITED ASSURANCE VALIDATION

Based on our examination of the validation evidence, nothing comes to our attention which causes us to

believe that reported assumptions do not provide a reasonable basis for forecast emissions and are not

fairly presented. Further, in our conclusion:

+ the forecast is properly prepared on the basis of the assumptions and in accordance with Aotearoa New

Zealand Climate Standards (NZ CSs) issued by the External Reporting Board (XRB)

Actual future emissions are likely to be different from the forecast as the estimates are based on

assumptions that may change in the future, and since anticipated events frequently do not occur as

expected and the variation may be material.

CAPITAL GOODS (EMBODIED CARBON

EMISSIONS FOR BUILDINGS)

Carbon emissions embodied (covering more than

50% of total inventory emission) as part of a

construction project are calculated based on the

“as built” design calculated by a consultant. The

estimate is based on a complex model taking into

account life cycle assessments, various inputs

and building elements based on the New Zealand

Green Building Council (NZGBC) framework.

Changes in assumptions, inputs and emission

factors can lead to significant changes in

emissions.

Audit procedures performed:

+ Assessed the reliability and competency of the

consultants used by management.

+ Engaged the use of an engineer and

infrastructure project manager expert to:

+ Obtain an understanding of the methodology and

assumptions used in the model;

+ Evaluate the assumptions used in model for

reasonableness

;

+ Confirm compliance with latest best practice

guidance from NZGBC, MBIE and BRANZ;

+ Review the appropriateness of the LCA tool used;

+ Review the inc

lusion of the required elements

(activity data) of the project by performing sampling on

the inputs

into the LCA tool;

+ Confirm the emissions factors applied in the model

with related guidance and standards;

+ Reperform the calculations for accuracy.

+ Site inspection to confirm the existence of the

embodied emissions.

+ Reviewed the disclosure of assumptions,

estimations, and uncertainty within the climate

statements.

Base Year Description (Corporate Standard Chapter 5

and 9, Scope 2 Guidance Chapter 7, Scope 3 Standard

Chapter 11)

Discussion of the policy for base year recalculations and

any significance threshold applied

The measurement period (1

st

July – 30

th

June) was selected

to align to the financial reporting year beginning in

Financial Year 2017 (FY17, 1

st

July 2016 – 30

th

June 2017).

For Scope 1 & 2, FY17 was chosen as the base year as it is

the first year we had a robust set of data available across

the portfolio. This was the year the portfolio was the most

stabilised after a number of acquisitions and divestments

and is therefore most relevant to provide an accurate

comparison. Our Scope 1 & 2 reporting is expected to

remain unchanged due to the targets for the portfolio

being based on intensity rather than absolute reduction.

A change or recalculation of this benchmark of the base

year for Scope 1 & 2 may be made in future cycles due to

an increase of alternative asset classes being introduced

to the investment portfolio that represent a deviation in

good performance per m

2

compared to office and retail

assets currently assessed.

For Scope 3, the boundary was significantly adjusted

during FY23, FY24 and again in FY25. This is due to

the expanded reporting against current and additional

categories in Scope 3 in line with the NZCS 1, 2 & 3 regime

requiring full value chain reporting. In addition, where

data was not available for the period, a methodology

has been created to support and fill gaps in reporting

previously unreported that leans to a more conservative

figure (generally higher than actually anticipated). Due to

this change in profile and coverage, a reliable baseline

for Scope 3 has not yet been determined for the

Portfolio, however further investigation on establishing an

appropriate baseline will be completed during FY26 in line

with the SBTi workstream to submit valid Scope 3 targets

and our next full value chain emissions audit for FY26.

For the Toitū Net Carbon Zero certification, the base

year was reset in FY19 (1

st

July 2018 – 30

th

June 2019)

in line with an increase in reporting scope required for

the certification to provide a more consistent year on

year comparison for the certification going forward. In

conjunction with the Scope 3 baseline investigation, this

will be reviewed in FY26 to determine if a change to

the base year will be effective for the certification going

forward considering the quantity of additional voluntary

emissions reported this certification period.

Emissions for the identified base year and current reporting

year that are calculated in accordance with the entity’s

base year recalculation policy

•Scope 1 & 2 - no recalculations have been

made for the FY17 base year used in reporting

emissions performance

•Scope 3 - no baseline year has been set due to FY25

change in profile and coverage.

Emissions data for all years between the base year and the

current reporting year calculated in accordance with the

entity’s base year recalculation policy

•Scope 1 & 2 - no recalculations have been

made for the FY17 base year used in reporting

emissions performance

•Scope 3 - no baseline year has been set due to FY25

change in profile and coverage.

The method used to calculate the base year’s (FY17) Scope

2 emissions

All data was calculated using Toitū emanage and the

organisations sourced emission factors. From FY20 this

has been primarily calculated using GHG emissions

factors as provided by the Programme based on The

Ministry for the Environment’s “Measuring Emissions: A

Guide for Organisations” published in 2020. A 'location

based' calculation methodology has been used for

quantifying the GHG emissions inventory using emissions

source activity data multiplied by GHG emissions or

removal factors.

If Scope 3 emissions are included for the base year,

disclose Scope 3 emissions by category in the base year

•Scope 3 - no baseline year has been set due to

FY25 change in profile and coverage, however Scope

3 categories reported during the base year have

been disclosed.
