Overview

----- Start of picture text -----

6-8 MUNROE LANE
6-8 MUNROE LANE
----- End of picture text -----

  • Total loss for the year net of tax of $13.05m (FY22 profit of $2.93m).

  • Result impacted by $13.04m of revaluation and disposal losses and reduced rental income, due to divestments and lower occupancy (35 Graham Street).

  • AFFO[1] loss of $0.28m ($4.22m profit in FY22).

  • Net rental income of $3.47m, down $4.26m on the previous year, primarily due to Auckland Council exit at 35 Graham Street and the sale of Eastgate in August 2022.

  • Munroe Lane complete with Auckland Council lease commencement on 17 May 2023 & Practical Completion on 13 July 2023.

  • 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. A reconciliation of AFFO is set out in Appendix 1 of the Results Presentation.

Outlook

  • The dividend remains suspended which is subject to quarterly review. It is likely to remain suspended until the future direction of the company is confirmed.

  • The company is forecast to still be in an operating loss position post-Munroe Lane completion, absent further leasing, up until the 35 Graham Street settlement. The 35 Graham Street settlement date will be known on or prior to 1 October 2023.

  • Key focus remains successfully leasing the balance of the Munroe Lane development. Thereafter, we will look to sell Munroe Lane.

  • 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.

  • We wish to emphasise that the current variables, being the leasing of Munroe Lane and the final settlement of 35 Graham Street, will influence the timing of such decisions, while market conditions at the time are likely to dictate the ultimate outcome.

  • 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.
