DEXUS office portfolio metrics as at 30 September 2015

Key metrics5 30 September 2015 30 June 2015
Occupancy by income 93.7% 95.3%
Occupancy by area 94.3% 95.5%
WALE by income 4.3 years 4.3 years
Average incentive 16.6% 15.0%

Kevin George said: “Net absorption across the Australian east coast CBD office markets remains solid, with Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane CBDs recording a combined 77,152 square metres of positive net absorption for the September 2015 quarter. This flowed through to another solid quarter of leasing activity in our portfolio and despite occupancy reducing as a result of expected tenant movements, we remain on track to achieve our occupancy[6] target of 95% at 30 June 2016.”

Over the quarter to 30 September 2015, DEXUS leased 35,088 square metres[7] of office space across 78 transactions including:

  • Securing heads of agreement with a new tenant across 6,056 square metres at 321 Kent St, Sydney

  • Securing four new tenants across 3,683 square metres and renewals with two tenants across 1,213 square metres at 10 Eagle St, Brisbane

  • Securing a new lease with Aussie Home Loans across 2,973 square metres at Grosvenor Place, Sydney

Occupancy[6] across the office portfolio of 93.7% was primarily impacted by Ashurst’s move from Grosvenor Place to 5 Martin Place, Sydney, however including heads of agreement post quarter end, occupancy[6] has increased to 94.1% (94.6% by area). The office portfolio’s weighted average lease expiry (WALE) remained stable at 4.3 years. While average incentives on face deals were in line with those achieved during FY15, effective deals represented a lower percentage of total leasing in the quarter which meant that overall office portfolio incentives rose marginally compared to FY15.

DEXUS industrial portfolio metrics as at 30 September 2015

Key metrics 30 September 2015 30 June 2015
Occupancy by income 93.4% 92.4%
Occupancy by area 91.1% 91.7%
WALE by income 4.2 years 4.0 years
Average incentive 14.7% 10.8%

Kevin George said: “Our industrial portfolio occupancy improved by one per cent over the quarter, and included the leasing of a major vacancy at Matraville across approximately 18,000 square metres. In South Sydney and Inner West Sydney we continue to see an uptick in tenant enquiry and demand for industrial property, especially where supply is restricted due to withdrawals for alternative use.”

Over the quarter to 30 September 2015, DEXUS leased 50,873 square metres[7] of industrial space across six transactions including:

  • Securing a new tenant across 18,013 square metres at 2-4 Military Road, Matraville

  • Securing a new lease with Unitrans across 13,607 square metres at Knoxfield Industrial Estate

  • Securing a new lease with Flick Anticimex across 4,275 square metres at 145-151 Arthur Street, Flemington

5 Excluding Waterfront Place Complex, Brisbane which settled on 1 October 2015. 6 By income.

7 Including Heads of Agreement.

----- End of picture text -----

Industrial portfolio occupancy[6] improved from 92.4% at 30 June 2015 to 93.4% at 30 September 2015 primarily due to leasing at Matraville, Flemington and Knoxfield. Average industrial incentives increased as a result of new leasing completed in the competitive Melbourne market. All deals achieved in the quarter were also face deals.

TRANSACTIONS

On 29 September DEXUS announced that the DEXUS Office Partnership (“Partnership”) had entered into an agreement to sell 36 George Street, Burwood. The gross sale proceeds of $95 million[8] reflect a $29 million or 44% premium to book value. Settlement is expected to occur on 24 November 2015 and DEXUS’s share of net sale proceeds will be used to repay debt.

Darren Steinberg said: “This transaction is consistent with our strategy of divesting non-core assets, and delivered an IRR of 32% over the life of the Partnership’s investment in this property.

“While there is future development opportunity at the site, we made the decision to capitalise on strong current investor demand and DEXUS’s share of the gain on sale will flow through to our NTA.”

DEVELOPMENT

During the quarter, the final stage of development at 5 Martin Place, Sydney was completed, which is on track to achieve a forecast unlevered project IRR of 29%. Alongside Cbus Property, DEXUS successfully negotiated an accelerated build program, de-risked the leasing ahead of schedule and achieved rents above original assumptions at the time of acquisition. Including heads of agreement post quarter-end, the committed office space has increased to 96%, from 42% at acquisition.

At Kings Square, DEXUS is on track to achieve a forecast unlevered project IRR of 15%. A rental guarantee secured at the time of acquisition ensures full income on the properties for a further five years from practical completion, with the office space currently 55% committed. Two of the three properties have been completed with the third property expected to be completed in November 2015.

At 480 Queen Street, Brisbane terms have been agreed with Guardian Early Learning Group which will establish a child education and care centre across 1,505 square metres on level 5 of the tower, enhancing the customer experience. In addition, Mitsui Coal has also agreed terms across 815 square metres on Level 24. The office space is currently 85% committed[9] and due for completion in early 2016.

In industrial, the development of three sites at Quarry at Greystanes is nearing completion, including a 120 seat café which will service the entire estate. At the adjoining Quarrywest site, construction has commenced on the site’s first development which comprises a 12,520 square metre warehouse facility pre-leased to Toshiba as well as three additional speculative facilities across 23,500 square metres.

THIRD PARTY FUNDS MANAGEMENT

DWPF completed a $200 million equity offer to existing investors that was oversubscribed by approximately $260 million in July 2015. In addition, DWPF continues to receive a high level of interest from new investors seeking to enter the Fund.

DEXUS continues to progress the development pipeline managed on behalf of its third party clients, a significant proportion of which comprises properties owned in joint venture with DEXUS. Construction has also commenced on the major redevelopment of the retail plaza at Gateway, Circular Quay in Sydney on behalf of DWPF and leasing pre-commitments have been secured with Neil Perry’s The Burger Project and Chat Thai, with terms agreed on approximately 55% of income. The development will convert the existing three storey podium into multiple dining precincts, doubling the retail space to more than 4,500 square metres.

  • 8 Gross sale proceeds are before transaction costs and are for the Partnership’s 100% interest in the property, of which DEXUS has a 50% interest.

9 DEXUS and DWPF have been provided with a two year income guarantee, from the developer, on any remaining vacancies at practical completion.

TRADING

In July 2015, DEXUS settled on the sale of 25-55 Rothschild Avenue and 5-13 Rosebery Avenue, Rosebery and 154 O’Riordan Street, Mascot. These settlements result in the securing of FY16 trading profits of approximately $60 million net of tax.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

DEXUS announced on 1 September 2015 the activation of an on-market securities buy-back of up to 5% of DXS securities on issue in response to share market volatility and will utilise the buyback where appropriate to enhance investor returns.

DEXUS continues to maintain a strong balance sheet, with gearing[10] of 28.5% at 30 June 2015 increasing to 29.3% on a pro forma basis at 30 September 2015 post the receipt of proceeds from the divestment of the Rosebery and Mascot trading properties and the acquisition of the Waterfront Place Complex, Brisbane which settled on 1 October 2015.

SUMMARY

Darren Steinberg said: “Despite the negative sentiment on the Australian economy, there remains significant leasing activity across the office, industrial and retail real estate sectors, with expectations that leasing will remain strong in the lead up to the end of the calendar year.

“The valuations we undertook this quarter support our view of a further 25-50bps of cap rate compression across our portfolio over FY16, with approximately 30 of DEXUS’s properties to be externally revalued and announced in December 2015.”

DEXUS reaffirms its FY16 guidance[11] for 5.5-6.0% growth in FFO per security, with FFO from the underlying business (excluding trading profits) expected to grow by 3.0-3.5%. Distributions will be paid in line with free cash flow which is expected to deliver growth in distribution per security of 5.5-6.0% for the 12 months ending 30 June 2016.
