Future growth drivers
==> picture [116 x 52] intentionally omitted <==
Cromwell is set to benefit significantly from a number of organic growth factors
-
Growth in earnings from average fixed rental growth of 4.1% for FY13
-
Growth in earnings from increased activity in funds management business
-
Property yield premium to bond / cash yields at historical highs
-
Strong appetite for yield and low volatility amongst retail investors
-
Most recent offer closed oversubscribed three months ahead of schedule
-
Currently sourcing product for next syndicate launch
-
Earnings upside potential from lower base interest rates
-
Current average cost of debt of 6.75% based on existing hedged rates vs. cost of new debt of 5.25%
-
Majority of hedges expire over the next 3 years, leading to potential lowering of interest costs
-
In addition to these organic factors, growth potential through accretive opportunistic acquisitions
-
Capital available through continued recycling of non-core assets
-
Disciplined approach, maintaining defensive characteristics and portfolio quality
-
Qantas Global HQ in Sydney, Exhibition Street in Melbourne and Bundall Corporate Centre in Queensland are examples of the type of opportunity Cromwell is seeking

Property yields and bonds
==> picture [116 x 52] intentionally omitted <==
Yield is in demand – and property yield premiums to bond rates are at historic highs
