Asset recycling strategy

==> picture [142 x 63] intentionally omitted <==

  • At 30 June 2011, Charter Hall targeted to recycle $100m of capital (15% of NTA over 18 months)

  • In 1HFY12, Charter Hall recycled $29.2m or 5% of 31 December 2011 NTA

  • Over the next 12 months, Charter Hall is targeting to recycle approximately an additional 15% of NTA ($95.2m)

 Recycled equity will be redeployed in a range of initiatives (including capital management)

  • Capital deployment will be determined at the time of sell down

  • If Charter Hall is unable to sell down its interest in DRF, options to restructure DRF and / or divest the assets will be investigated

  • Book value at 30 June 2011

  • Based on 31 December 11 Group net tangible assets of $647m

  • Assuming an exchange rate of AUD / USD of $1.07 (as noted in 30 June 2011 Charter Hall full year results presentation)

  • The quantum of capital expected to be recycled out of CQO has significantly increased in the event that CQO is privatised and this reflects an approximate number 5. Assuming that Charter Hall sells down to an interest of 20% in DRF

33

Outlook and guidance

==> picture [142 x 63] intentionally omitted <==

Outlook

  • Global economic environment remains challenging

  • Continue to focus on growing FUM in Australia, in particular through raising capital

  • Ongoing initiatives aimed at increasing efficiency across the platform and cost management

  • Expect medium term NOI growth from property investment portfolio through reduced vacancies, rental growth and reduction in funding costs

  • Charter Hall continues to receive flows of capital into its unlisted real estate products

  • Increased allocation given volatility in listed markets

  • Equity flows are expected continue as investors seek to deploy their real estate capital allocations

  • Retail investor flows into Charter Hall funds expected to gain further momentum through new product launches

  • FY12 earnings guidance  Subject to unforeseen events, we expect FY12 operating earnings to be approximately 24 cps

  • Approximately 2 cps of FY12 operating earnings relates to:

  • Net earnings associated with CQO US portfolio disposal, costs associated with closure of the US office and costs associated with retaining the CQO management rights

  • Implementing the organisational restructure
