THE

AN ARGOSY PERSPECTIVE

Welcome to the

latest edition of

The Steward.

There’s plenty happening across our

portfolio, from new developments and

improved tenant facilities to well-deserved

recognition for our people and properties.

We’ve also been getting out into the

community, supporting the next generation

of property professionals and lending a

hand to some great organisations.

We hope you enjoy this latest snapshot

of what we’ve been up to as we continue

Building a Better Future together.

Development Update

It’s been a busy few months across our Auckland industrial developments,

with some significant milestones reached.

Property Council Tour Event, Mt Richmond.

MT RICHMOND

Warehouse 6 at Mt Richmond Industrial

Estate reached practical completion in

May, with Viatris moving in the following

month. A blessing was held in July

to welcome Viatris and mark another

important milestone for the development.

Earlier in the year, around 60 people

visited the site as part of a Property Council

New Zealand tour, hearing from our team

and JLL before taking a look around the

new facility.

on the national stage. These

awards acknowledge the

hard work of the entire team

and the project’s strong

sustainability outcomes.

Citigroup Centre, Auckland.

A NEW LEASE OF LIFE AT

CITIGROUP CENTRE

A former NZ Post PO Box facility at Citigroup

Centre has been transformed into a modern

end-of-trip facility, new retail tenancy and

three secure storage units.

Designed to support active lifestyles and more

sustainable ways of getting to work, the new

end-of-trip facility includes premium showers,

changing areas and secure lockers.

Together, the changes have turned an

underused area into a more functional

space, while providing better facilities and a

better building experience for tenants and

their visitors.

Building Update

224 NEILSON STREET

Leasing activity has also continued at

nearby 224 Neilson Street with ECLY Limited

securing a 16-year lease for Warehouse A

from March 2027.

The development also picked up some

impressive recognition at the 2026 Master

Builders Commercial Project Awards. The 6

Green Star-rated project received a National

Category Award, a Gold Award and the overall

Environmental and Sustainability Award.

In July, a blessing was held for

Warehouse 6, developed for

Viatris, in partnership with local

iwi. The blessing recognised

the significance of the site and

marked the completion of the

development, celebrating a

milestone for both the estate

and its newest tenant. The

project has also since achieved

a 6 Green Star Built rating,

recognising its sustainability

features and high standard of

environmental performance.

CEO Insight

CEO

Insight

Peter Mence

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

Current market conditions are being shaped

by a high level of geopolitical instability,

and any discussion of the international and

domestic economies will be forced to consider

the effects of the Middle East conflict,

including the resulting constraints on oil

supplies around the world.

This is compounded by uncertainty

surrounding international trade, including

tariffs. These developments have contributed

to heightened market volatility and

inflationary pressures, while established trade

patterns are changing, with little certainty of

where these will settle.

Domestically too, there are changes with

further reductions targeted in the headcount

of Government employees, and in migration

numbers. Over the last few months, we have

seen the tarnishing of the artificial intelligence

(AI) star, with the breaking of supposed

tethers and undirected hacking into computer

data systems. With China and America both

racing to dominate this field, it should not be

surprising to find that the new toy is over-

reaching (it should be noted that this column

is prepared the old fashioned way!).

Then of course we have an election due

in New Zealand and opinion polls are, to

date, not anointing a probable winning

combination. It may be that the mid-term

elections in America are of greater economic

impact in New Zealand than our own

Government elections.

In the climate change area, there is plenty to

be concerned about, and plenty to be thankful

that we live in New Zealand for. The northern

hemisphere has been dealing with weather

extremes producing droughts or flooding,

depending on the location.

Extreme heat and wildfires have rocked the

United Kingdom and Europe. In addition

to the human costs, property has been

destroyed and travel disrupted. The tragedy

in Nepal has brought home the unpredictable

power of nature.

Scientists have noted that the world, when

viewed from space, has become duller –

that is less reflective. Apparently this is

measured by what is referred to as the earth’s

planetary albedo and suggests that the

world is absorbing heat from the sun rather

than reflecting it at a higher level. Ironically,

this may be contributed to by a reduction in

atmospheric pollutants.

As is often observed, the share market hates

uncertainty and we can certainly see the

impact on the NZX. So top down, there are

plenty of issues to focus on.

Real estate as an asset class has the solid

benefit of being tangible, and often the

investment community will neglect this

benefit when assessing the investment case

for the sector. It is not a sector where asset

values can evaporate to zero in the face of the

next best product arriving in the market.

The domestic property market is continuing

to deliver stability in investment values and

income levels that provide regular predictable

dividends. The market is coming from a

relatively modest level of valuation and there

is little excess capacity. In this context, it is

worth considering just how much negativity

is currently priced into current trading prices

and assess what level of downside realistically

is justified. Certainly, leasing activity is slower

than before the commencement of hostilities

in Iran, and there has been some slight easing

in net effective rentals. There is some excess

capacity in the industrial market in Auckland

and in commercial offices in both Auckland

and Wellington, that may take some time

to absorb. However this is already factored

into most asset valuations, and in Wellington

office, enquiry is surprising on the upside.

The Argosy portfolio has shown some good

bottom-up improvement since my last

update and is not causing significant concern

with either investment values or income

levels. The portfolio has weathered another

downturn very well and has consistently

demonstrated resilience, one of the benefits

of diversification. New leases, lease renewals

and lease extensions have been secured

across all three sectors in both Wellington

and Auckland, with notable success in the

Wellington office market at 147 Lambton

Quay.

It is easy for market commentators to make

the mistake of assuming that all assets in a

sector are going to perform in the same way,

but (with apologies to George Orwell) some

animals are more equal than others. This is

particularly so with the Wellington commercial

office market where there is a locational

preference for occupants being close to

parliament, a seismic preference for buildings

of at least 80% of the new building standard,

and a sustainability preference for buildings of

at least 4 stars (built or performance rating).

The Argosy portfolio is well positioned and

we are building momentum on the leasing

front. This is a positive backdrop upon which

to consider the next period and reassuring

for those of us that rely on regular and

sustainable dividend payments.

This commentary is provided for general information only

and does not constitute financial or investment advice.

You should consider your own circumstances and seek

independent professional advice before making any

investment decisions.

Henkel New Zealand

This year marks a significant milestone

for Henkel as the company celebrates

150 years of innovation. Operating in

New Zealand for nearly four decades,

Henkel is a leader in adhesives,

sealants, coatings and consumer

brands, supporting customers across

a diverse range of industries.

For the Henkel team, 2 and 12 Allens Road

were a natural fit. The industrial buildings

provide a combination of quality office

and operational space, excellent transport

connections and easy access for customers

and suppliers, supporting both day-to-day

operations and future growth.

The Henkel team speaks highly of its

Argosy Property Manager and Asset

Manager, valuing their practical support,

responsiveness and willingness to work

collaboratively to meet the needs of

the business.

A major milestone for Henkel was bringing

its Adhesive Technologies and Consumer

Brands teams together at 2 Allens Road last

year, creating a more connected workplace

and strengthening collaboration across

the business.

Staff Spotlight

Tenant Spotlight

Reflecting the breadth of Henkel’s work, its

technologies have been used in projects

such as Barcelona’s iconic Sagrada Familia,

now the tallest church in the world. Closer

to home, the team enjoys making the

most of the East Tamaki and Highbrook

area, with local cafés and eateries proving

popular for coffee catch-ups and customer

meetings.

A big congratulations to our Head of

Development, Marilyn Storey, who was

named in Property Council New Zealand’s

Women of Impact Property list earlier

this year.

Released to mark International Women’s

Day, the list recognises women making a

significant contribution to New Zealand’s

property sector.

Marilyn’s inclusion acknowledges both

her leadership within the industry and

her track record of delivering successful

development outcomes. It’s fantastic to see

her contribution recognised alongside other

women helping shape New Zealand’s built

environment.

MARILYN STOREY RECOGNISED

AS A WOMAN OF IMPACT

Nine months into his time with us, Property

Manager Oli Pritchard is making the most of

everything the property sector has to offer.

Having grown up around property, Oli

developed an early appreciation for the

difference well-managed spaces can make to

businesses, communities and the people who

use them every day.

One of his highlights so far has been

managing our own home at 39 Market Place.

He particularly enjoys the people side of

the role, working with tenants, contractors,

consultants and colleagues to solve problems

and get things done.

Outside work, you’ll often find Oli surfing

Auckland’s east or west coast, or fitting in

a gym session. And his advice for anyone

starting out in property? Stay curious, keep

learning and embrace new opportunities.

Putting future property

talent to the test

We were pleased to support The Property

Foundation’s 2026 Case Challenge, providing

a real-world property case study with support

from Donavin Wick, Development Manager.

The standard of the student teams was

exceptional and a great showcase of the

future talent coming into New Zealand’s

property sector. Teams from Auckland,

Lincoln and Massey universities will now

represent New Zealand at the PropConnex

Case Competition in Sydney.

Supporting Keystone Trust

We recently joined more than 500 property

industry colleagues at the Keystone Trust

Rugby Lunch at the New Zealand

International Convention Centre.

Hosted by Paddy Gower and featuring Mils

Muliaina and John Afoa, the event raised

funds for scholarships, development

programmes and hardship assistance.

A highlight was hearing directly from students

about the difference Keystone Trust has made

to their education and career journeys.

Saatyesh Bhana, Head of Sustainability

volunteering at Camp Bentzon.

Rolling up our sleeves

Earlier this year, our team put their volunteer

days to good use with Camp Bentzon and the

New Zealand Food Network.

At Camp Bentzon, the team helped with

clean-up and maintenance work to improve

the camp’s facilities and outdoor spaces. At

the New Zealand Food Network, volunteers

sorted and packed fresh produce and other

food that would otherwise have gone to

landfill, ready for distribution to charities

around the country.

Two very different days, but both great

opportunities to support organisations

making a positive difference.

Getting a taste of the

property industry

In May, we welcomed University of Auckland

students as part of the Department of

Property’s Buddy Programme.

Starting at 82 Wyndham Street, the

students then split into groups to visit

Citigroup Centre and Mt Richmond, meeting

our people and getting a first-hand look

at asset management, development and

sustainability in action.

It was a great opportunity to give students

a taste of the breadth of careers available in

commercial property and bring some of their

classroom learning to life.

Camp Bentzon Update

Camp Bentzon has had a productive

winter, with several improvement projects

completed ahead of the busy school camp

season. The largest project has been the

refurbishment of the female ablution block,

including new plumbing, wiring, ventilation,

lighting, showers, toilets and finishes.

The upgrade modernises a facility that has

served youth for more than 30 years.

The camp has also developed a new

team-based activity where students work

together to construct a bridge and move

their group across an obstacle using

limited resources.

Despite rising costs across the construction

sector, Camp Bentzon continues to invest

in its facilities while working hard to

keep camp fees affordable for schools.

We are pleased to continue supporting

the camp and the opportunities it provides

for young New Zealanders.
