Appendix A – Goodman Logistics (HK) Limited financial report for the year ended 30 June 2020

Goodman Group

Directors’ report

The directors (Directors) of Goodman Limited (ABN 69 000 123 071) and Goodman Funds Management Limited (GFML), the responsible entity for Goodman Industrial Trust (ARSN 091 213 839), present their Directors’ report together with the consolidated financial statements of Goodman Limited and the entities it controlled (Goodman or Group) and the consolidated financial statements of Goodman Industrial Trust and the entities it controlled (GIT) at the end of, or during, the financial year ended 30 June 2020 (FY20) and the audit report thereon.

Shares in Goodman Limited (Company or GL), units in Goodman Industrial Trust (Trust) and CHESS Depositary Interests (CDIs) over shares in Goodman Logistics (HK) Limited (GLHK) are stapled to one another and are quoted as a single security on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX). In respect of stapling arrangements, Australian Accounting Standards require an acquirer to be identified and an in-substance acquisition to be recognised and accordingly Goodman Limited is identified as having acquired control over the assets of GIT and GLHK. The consolidated financial statements of Goodman Limited therefore include the results of GIT and GLHK.

As permitted by the relief provided in Australian Securities & Investments Commission (ASIC) Instrument 18-0353, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present both the financial statements and accompanying notes of Goodman and GIT. GLHK, which is incorporated and domiciled in Hong Kong, prepares its financial statements under Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards and the applicable requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance and accordingly the financial statements of GLHK have not been included as adjacent columns in the consolidated financial statements. The financial statements of GLHK have been included as an appendix to this financial report.

GFML, as responsible entity for the Trust, is solely responsible for the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial report of GIT, in accordance with the Trust’s Constitution and the Corporations Act 2001.

  1. Operating profit per security (operating EPS) is the operating profit divided by the weighted average number of securities on issue during FY20, including securities relating to performance rights that have not yet vested but where the performance hurdles have been achieved. Operating profit comprises profit attributable to Securityholders adjusted for net property valuations gains, non-property impairment losses, net gains/losses from the fair value movements on derivative financial instruments and unrealised fair value and foreign exchange movements on interest bearing liabilities and other non-cash adjustments or non-recurring items e.g. the share based payments expense associated with Goodman’s LTIP.

The Directors consider that Goodman’s operating profit is a key measure by which to examine the underlying performance of the business, notwithstanding that operating profit is not an income measure under International Financial Reporting Standards.

  1. Development work in progress is the end value of ongoing developments across Goodman and its investments in associates and joint ventures (referred to as Partnerships).

  2. Gearing is calculated as total interest bearing liabilities over total assets, both net of cash and the fair values of certain derivative financial instruments included in other financial assets of $292.5 million (2019: $222.4 million). Total interest bearing liabilities are grossed up for the fair values of certain derivative financial instruments included in other financial liabilities of $194.0 million (2019: $123.6 million).

  3. Interest cover is operating profit before net finance expense (operating) and income tax (operating) divided by adjusted net finance expense (operating). Adjusted net finance expense excludes capitalised borrowing costs.

Goodman Group

Overview

The Board acknowledges the unprecedented times the world is experiencing and the terrible impact COVID-19 is having on people’s lives and livelihoods. Goodman’s markets have been affected at various times and to varying degrees, but the Group has adapted to this new operating environment with limited disruption and has continued to grow the business sustainably for the long term. Goodman plays an important role in providing both essential infrastructure and making a tangible difference for customers in the cities in which the Group operates.

Over the past decade, the Group has established significant human capital, financial resources and a well located real estate portfolio, to sustain the business through market cycles. This is reflected in the results for the financial year with Goodman reporting operating profit of $1,060.2 million, compared to $942.3 million for the prior year, an increase of 12.5%. This equates to an operating EPS of 57.5 cents, up 11.4% on FY19.

Goodman’s statutory profit attributable to Securityholders for FY20 was $1,504.1 million, a decrease of $123.8 million compared with FY19. This included the Group’s share of property valuation gains, net of deferred tax, of $621.3 million and the accounting expense of the Goodman LTIP of $164.0 million. There was also a $6.8 million fair value gain on derivatives which is included in the statutory profit but excluded from the calculation of operating profit. The decrease in statutory profit compared to FY19 was principally due to the lower property valuation gains in FY20.

Goodman has achieved this result while maintaining the prudent metrics in accordance with its financial risk management policy. At 30 June 2020, gearing remained low at 7.5% and the funds available to the Group for future investment were $2.8 billion. On 14 July 2020, a notice of early redemption was issued in relation to the total of the US$174.5 million (A$253.3 million) outstanding principal amount of the bonds due for payment in 15 April 2021. This transaction is due to settle in August 2020, which would have a commensurate pro-forma impact on liquidity. Over $2.0 billion of the Group’s total of $2.6 billion of remaining bonds have maturities of more than five years from 30 June 2020.

Dividends and distributions relating to FY20 were maintained at 30 cents per security, equivalent to 52% of operating profit. The cash retained in the business is consistent with the financial risk management targets and is considered appropriate given the significant development activity and the commensurate growth in investments that is expected in the near term.

Key operational highlights:

Property investment:

  • Investment earnings of $425.2 million (2019: $372.1 million) + $51.6 billion of total assets under management (AUM), of which the Group owns a whole or a part share

  • 3.0% like for like growth in net property income (NPI) in Partnerships

  • 97.5% occupancy across the Group and Partnerships

Management:

  • Management earnings of $511.2 million (2019: $469.7 million)

  • $48.0 billion of external AUM in Partnerships

  • 16.6% total return across Partnerships

Development:

  • Development earnings of $575.7 million (2019: $509.2 million)

  • $6.5 billion of development work in progress (WIP)

  • $4.5 billion of development commencements

“own+develop+manage”

The Group’s focus on urban locations to efficiently service consumers has provided resilient cashflows across the global portfolio. This is particularly important in uncertain times, with Goodman’s assets providing critical infrastructure for delivery of essential goods and services.

The Group has experienced increased demand for both temporary and permanent space from customers in the food, consumer goods and logistics sectors, particularly related to e-commerce operators and those transitioning to online. The portfolio occupancy has remained stable at 97.5%, with like for like NPI growth during FY20 at 3% and, in general, there was relatively limited closure or disruption of Goodman’s warehouse facilities over the past few months.

Where Goodman’s most vulnerable customers have been significantly impacted by the lockdowns and the economic impacts of the pandemic, then Goodman has worked with them to provide rental assistance. This includes complying with any local legislation, with support in the form of rent abatement, rent deferral or lease restructure. However, the impacts in FY20 have not been material in the context of the Group’s reported operating profit and net assets.

Goodman Group

Directors’ report Operating and financial review (continued)

Furthermore, many of Goodman’s customers have continued to progress discussions regarding demand for new space in line with ongoing supply chain consolidation, online expansion and growth in the digital economy. This has given the Group confidence to grow its WIP to $6.5 billion at 30 June 2020. The Group continues to mitigate its development risk through global diversification and sharing the opportunities with its investment partners, undertaking 79% of developments within the Partnerships at 30 June 2020. WIP is 76% pre-committed at 30 June 2020, with uncommitted space representing only 2% of total global portfolio area.

This continued customer demand for industrial space has seen a strong property valuation result for the financial year. The uplift in 2H was $257.6 million, despite the economic impacts arising from the pandemic. During FY20, the weighted average capitalisation rate of the stabilised assets in the Goodman portfolios contracted from 5.1% to 4.9%.

Goodman’s external AUM during FY20 increased by 12% to $48.0 billion at 30 June 2020 from $42.9 billion, which resulted in higher base management fee revenue in FY20. The increase in AUM was primarily a result of continued development activity and the property valuation uplifts on both stabilised assets and development completions. The Group’s Partnerships again reported strong total returns and as a consequence, management earnings for FY20 included portfolio performance fee revenue of $207.2 million.

While the Group’s portfolios are largely concentrated in key urban centres, Goodman has continued to rotate assets where longer-term returns are projected to be lower than the Group’s and the Partnership’s targets.

Analysis of performance

Goodman’s key operating regions are Australia and New Zealand (reported on a combined basis), Asia (Greater China and Japan), Continental Europe (with the vast majority of assets located in Germany and France), the United Kingdom and the Americas (North America and Brazil). The operational performance can be analysed into property investment earnings, management earnings and development earnings, and the Directors consider this presentation of the consolidated results facilitates a better understanding of the underlying performance of Goodman given the differing nature of and risks associated with each earnings stream.

Property investment earnings consist of gross property income (excluding straight lining of rental income), less property expenses, plus Goodman’s share of the operating results of Partnerships that is allocable to property investment activities which excludes the Group’s share of property revaluations and derivative mark to market movements. The key drivers for maintaining or growing Goodman’s property investment earnings are increasing the level of AUM (subject also to Goodman’s direct and indirect interest), maintaining or increasing occupancy and rental levels within the portfolio, and operating and financing costs within Partnerships.

Management earnings relate to the revenue from managing both the property portfolios and the capital invested in Partnerships (management income). This includes performance related revenues but excludes earnings from managing development activities in Partnerships, which are included in development earnings. The key drivers for maintaining or growing management earnings are activity levels, asset performance, and increasing the level of AUM, which can be impacted by property valuations and asset disposals and is also dependent on liquidity including the continued availability of third party capital to fund both development activity and acquisitions across Goodman’s Partnerships.

Development earnings consist of development income, plus Goodman’s share of the operating results of Partnerships that is allocable to development activities, plus net gains or losses from disposals of investment properties and equity investments that are allocable to development activities, less development expenses. Development income includes development management fees and also performance related revenues associated with managing development activity in Partnerships. The key drivers for Goodman’s development earnings are the level of development activity, land and construction prices, property valuations and the continued availability of third party capital to fund development activity.

Settlement occurred in 1H20 and this gain has been categorised as development earnings in the FY20 analysis of the Group’s performance. The share of fair value adjustments attributable to investment properties in Partnerships has been reduced by $14.4 million.

The Group’s property portfolios are concentrated in large, urban centres around the world where demand from customers has put pressure on land use and availability. Customers, including e-commerce, are continuing to invest in order to improve the efficiency of their supply chains and data centre users are looking to expand their operations. During 2H, as the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the shift in consumer purchasing habits to online shopping, Goodman has seen increased demand for both temporary and permanent space from customers in the food, consumer goods and logistics sectors, particularly related to e-commerce operators and those transitioning to online.

Despite the lockdowns and other restrictions that all major economies have experienced in the past few months, there has been relatively limited closure or disruption of Goodman’s warehouse facilities and the financial impact on the Group has not been significant in the context of its consolidated results and financial position.

Where the Group’s most vulnerable customers have been impacted by the pandemic, then Goodman has worked with them to provide rental assistance, which includes compliance with local legislation. In the majority of cases, assistance has been in the form of rent deferral or lease restructure. To date, the rate of rental delinquency has not had a material impact on the Group.

The directly held properties are primarily in Australia and have potential for significant long-term growth, from the redevelopment to more intense or higher and better uses. The increase in earnings from the directly held properties was mainly driven by the completion of developments with some underlying rental growth.

The more significant component of the Group’s investment earnings is from its cornerstone interests in the managed Partnerships, where earnings from the stabilised assets increased by $48.6 million to $346.7 million compared to the prior year. In addition to the favourable impact of foreign currency translation on the overseas earnings, there were two main operational factors for this increase. The first was the stabilisation of developments during both FY19 and FY20. Goodman has continued to be a net investor in the Partnerships to fund developments and new acquisitions. The second was the rental income growth from existing stabilised properties. Net property income from the Partnership portfolios was up 3% on a like for like basis in FY20 compared to FY19. Occupancy remained stable and was 97.5% at 30 June 2020 (2019: 97.6%).

The returns from the Partnerships are also impacted by the level of debt in each Partnership. Gearing has been maintained at the lower end of target ranges, which continues to be appropriate given the ongoing development activity and the aim of Goodman and its investment partners to position the Partnerships for sustainable long-term growth. However, during FY20 certain of the Partnerships did raise new debt, including the first debt issuance by Goodman North America Partnership (GNAP). The operating return on Goodman’s investment in the stabilised portfolios held by the Partnerships was 4.9% compared to 4.9% in FY19, as growth in net property income and the capital management initiatives in the Partnerships offset the impacts of the valuation growth that increased the investment base.

Goodman Group

During FY20, the Group’s share of property valuations from the stabilised portfolios (pre deferred tax) was $551.1 million, including valuation uplifts on new developments that reached completion. Valuation gains occurred across all the Group’s regions, a combination of both capitalisation rate compression and the growth in rental income. At 30 June 2020, the WACR for the Group’s portfolios was 4.9%, compared to 5.1% at the start of FY20.

Management

Management earnings in FY20 of $511.2 million increased by 8.8% compared to the prior year and comprised 34% of total operating earnings (2019: 35%). The translation of the overseas earnings had a favourable impact compared to the prior year, however, the main driver of management earnings was the increase in external AUM.

During FY20, external AUM increased by 12% to $48.0 billion from $42.9 billion as set out below:

At the beginning of the year 42.9
Acquisitions 2.0
Disposals (1.3)
Capital expenditure (developments) 1.3
Valuations 2.9
Foreign currencytranslation 0.2
At the end of theyear 48.0

Base management fee income, earned from the overall management of the Group’s Partnerships, increased in line with the external AUM. This was supplemented by both property services income, which increased in line with the gross property income in Partnerships, and other income such as leasing fees and transactional fees.

In addition, the consistently high Partnership returns over the past few years again resulted in a strong contribution from performance fee revenue, which was relatively stable at $207.2 million (FY19: $204.3 million).These performance fees arose primarily in Australia/New Zealand, Asia and Continental Europe.

For FY20, the Partnerships reported average total returns of 16.6% (2019: 15.9%).

In FY20, development earnings were $575.7 million (excluding revaluation gains), an increase of 13.1% on the prior year and comprised 38% of total operating earnings (2019: 38%). The increase in the Group’s earnings was primarily volume driven with the overall project returns relatively consistent with the prior year. Foreign currency translation of overseas earnings also had a favourable impact on earnings compared to the prior year.

The scale of the Group’s development projects has continued to grow due to the high value nature of the sites and the complexity associated with development of infill locations. In the final quarter of the year, a number of high value projects commenced such that by 30 June 2020, WIP was $6.5 billion across 46 projects. During FY20, total project commencements were $4.5 billion, with completions of $2.4 billion.

The majority of inventory disposals and fixed price contract income arose in Europe, as Partnerships in Continental Europe generally acquire completed developments from Goodman. In the Group’s other operating segments, development earnings are a mix of development management income, including performance related income, and transactional activity, including the Group’s share of development profits reported by Partnerships themselves. Consistent with the prior year, the majority of development activity in FY20 was undertaken by Partnerships (79% of WIP at 30 June 2019).

Consistent with the Group’s strategy, development activity has been focused on key urban centres, where customer demand is high and the supply of available land is restricted. In locations, such as Japan and North America, this has allowed the Group to commence certain projects prior to pre-lease commitments. Nevertheless, 76% of WIP was precommitted at 30 June 2020.

Operating expenses

For FY20, operating expenses increased to $292.3 million from $267.7 million. The majority of the operating expenses related to remuneration costs which increased to $203.7 million from $191.9 million as a result of modest inflation pressure, and the impact of a weaker Australian dollar on the translation of the overseas costs. Headcount was maintained in most divisions, with increases in Continental Europe and the Americas to support the growth in those regions. The Group’s aim is to keep base remuneration costs relatively steady, and instead use variable costs to incentivise staff.

Administrative expenses also increased in FY20. In addition to the impact of the weaker Australian dollar on the translation of the overseas costs, the main increases related to compliance costs, insurance premiums and charitable donations. During 2H20, Goodman made additional donations to certain of its charitable partners to help support them during the COVID-19 pandemic and a significant donation to the New South Wales Rural Fire Service to purchase and equip a new helicopter to assist in fighting future bushfires.

Net finance expense (operating)

Net finance expense (operating), which excluded derivative mark to market and unrealised foreign exchange movements, increased to $70.8 million from $45.9 million. This was due to lower interest received on the Group’s cash and higher borrowing expenses on the Group’s foreign denominated loans and derivatives due mainly to the impact of the lower Australian dollar.

Income tax expense (operating)

Income tax expense (operating) for FY20 at $88.8 million (2019: $95.1 million) decreased compared to the prior year. A significant proportion of Goodman’s earnings related to GIT and its controlled entities, which, as trusts, are “flow through” entities under Australian tax legislation, meaning Securityholders (and not GIT) are taxed on their respective share of income. However, the decrease in the tax expense was primarily due to the nature and location of the Group’s development revenues.

Capital management

Interest bearing liabilities

At 30 June 2020, the Group’s available debt facilities and fixed rate long-term bonds, which totalled $4.0 billion (of which $2.9 billion had been drawn), had a weighted average maturity of 5.8 years. The Group’s cash and undrawn bank facilities were $2.8 billion. Subsequent to 30 June 2020, the Group has initiated the process to redeem bonds of $253.3 million that were due to expire in 15 April 2021. This is expected to conclude in 14 August 2020.

At 30 June 2020, gearing was 7.5% (2019: 9.7%), which continued to be at the lower end of the Group’s policy range of 0% to 25%. Interest cover was 15.3 times (2019: 19.6 times) and the Group continued to have significant headroom relative to its financing covenants. Goodman’s credit ratings were unchanged over the period.

During FY20, the Group and its Partnerships refinanced over $3.1 billion of bank debt and secured third party equity commitments of $2.5 billion to provide liquidity for ongoing acquisition and development opportunities.

Dividends and distributions

The Group’s distribution for FY20 was maintained at 30 cents per security, a pay-out ratio of 52%, with 15 cents paid on 25 February 2020 and 15 cents to be paid on 28 August 2020. This pay-out ratio has assisted the Group in retaining sufficient funds for its ongoing development activity and in keeping gearing at an appropriate level, within the desired range. The distribution reinvestment plan was not in operation during the year.

In respect of the separate components that comprise the 30 cents per security:

    • Goodman Limited did not declare any dividends during the financial year (2019: $nil).
    • Goodman Industrial Trust declared and accrued distributions of 26.0 cents per security (2019: 25.0 cents per security), amounting to $475.4 million (2019: $453.5 million).
    • GLHK declared and accrued a dividend of 4.0 cents per security (2019: 5.0 cents per security), amounting to $73.1 million (2019: $90.7 million).

Directors’ report Operating and financial review (continued)

Summary of items that reconcile operating profit to statutory profit

Property valuation related movements

The net gain from fair value adjustments on investment properties of $45.2 million (2019: $146.8 million) related to those assets directly held by Goodman, principally in Sydney, Australia. The uplift in value was due to both rental growth and a contraction in capitalisation rates.

Goodman’s share of net gains from fair value adjustments after tax attributable to investment properties in Partnerships was $591.7 million. While this has decreased from $746.6 million in FY19, this represents a strong result in the current environment, a reflection of the quality of the property portfolios and the continued customer and investor demand for industrial assets. The valuation uplift in FY20 included $182 million (2019: $171 million) from the Group’s share of completed and ongoing development activity in the Partnerships.

The majority of the uplift on the stabilised portfolios in FY20 was recorded in the first half of the year. However, despite the economic uncertainty created by the COVID-19 pandemic, the valuations of the Group’s portfolios have been in line or slightly increased from pre-COVID levels. In most regions, there has been transactional evidence to support the valuation results at 30 June 2020.

At 30 June 2020, the WACR for Goodman’s stabilised property portfolios (both directly held and Partnerships) decreased from 5.1% to 4.9%.

There were no impairment losses associated with the Group’s inventories during FY20.

Fair value adjustments and unrealised foreign currency exchange movements related to liability management

The amount reported in the income statement associated with the Group’s derivative financial instruments was a net gain of $6.8 million. Despite the volatility in foreign currency exchange rates during the second half of FY20, this relatively small net impact was due to the fact that the rates at the end the year were similar to those at the start of FY20 for most denominations.

Under the Group’s policy, it continues to hedge between 65% and 90% of the net investment in its overseas businesses. Where Goodman invests in foreign assets, it will borrow in that currency or enter into derivative financial instruments to create a similar liability. In so doing, Goodman reduces its net asset and income exposures to those currencies. The unrealised fair value movement of the derivative financial instruments (up or down) is recorded in the income statement; however, the foreign currency translation of the net investment that is being hedged is recorded directly in reserves. In FY20, the movement in reserves attributable to foreign currency movements was a loss of $26.7 million, a relatively small net impact in the context of the Group’s overall foreign net assets.

Other non-cash adjustments or non-recurring items

The principal other non-cash adjustments or non-recurring items for FY20 related to the share based payments expense of $164.0 million for Goodman’s LTIP, down from $196.6 million in FY19. This decrease primarily relates to the introduction of fixed longer-term earnings per share hurdles associated with the awards made during FY20 and the fact that the Goodman Group security price decreased from $15.03 to $14.85 during FY20 compared to an increase from $9.62 to $15.03 in FY19. The introduction of the fixed operating EPS hurdle has decreased the likelihood of it being achieved and at 30 June 2020 the Group has assessed this probability to be 50%.

The carrying value of wholly-owned, stabilised investment properties increased by $41.5 million to $1,797.9 million at 30 June 2020. This was primarily due to valuation uplifts of $45.2 million during the year, offset by some minor disposals.

The value of Goodman’s cornerstone investments in Partnerships, which excludes the Group’s share of development assets in the Partnerships, increased by $886.9 million to $7,807.3 million, due to the valuation uplifts across the portfolios, stabilisation of developments (primarily in GNAP) and funding for new acquisitions, net of new bank debt facilities or bond issuances by the Partnerships.

Goodman’s development holdings, which include the Group’s share of development assets in the Partnerships as well as the directly held properties, increased during the year by $148.3 million to $3,140.1 million. This was a result of both the increased activity levels that occurred in most regions and valuation uplifts associated with investment properties under development in the Partnerships (primarily in Asia and North America). A number of large projects commenced in the latter part of the year, which resulted in development WIP increasing to $6.5 billion at 30 June 2020.

At 30 June 2019, the principal goodwill and intangible asset balances were in Continental Europe and the United Kingdom. The movement during FY20 related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and there have been no impairments or reversals of impairments.

The Group’s cash and interest bearing liabilities should be considered together. On a net basis, the liability was $1,156.6 million at 30 June 2020 compared to $1,367.9 million at 30 June 2019. This reduction in the net liability reflects strong operating cash inflows, which funded both the Group’s net investment in Partnerships and the dividends/distributions to Securityholders. The net cash inflow for FY20 was $189.6 million.

Other assets included receivables and the fair values of derivative financial instruments that are in an asset position. The derivatives financial instruments, both those in an asset and those in a liability position, are in place to hedge the Group’s interest rate and foreign exchange rate risks.

Other liabilities included trade and other payables, the provision for dividends/distributions to Securityholders, fair values of derivative financial instruments that are in a liability position and tax liabilities (including deferred tax). The movement during the year was primarily due to increases in the liability fair values of certain of the derivatives and increased income tax liabilities.

Operating cash flow

Operating cash flows of $1,156.9 million increased relative to the prior year and was also higher than the Group’s operating profit of $1,060.2 million.

This was primarily attributable to higher receipts from management activities during FY20.

The net development cash flows were at a similar level to the prior year, although both the gross receipts from development activities and the gross payments for development activities were lower. This arose due to the nature and structure of the development activities – with less development costs being incurred directly by the Group. Instead Goodman undertook more developments in joint ventures or in Partnerships with the Group’s share of the funding reported in investing activities.

The distributions received from Partnerships in FY20 were $462.2 million, increased from $365.4 million in the prior year. This the main reason for the higher distributions relating to development activities in the Partnerships.

Investing cash flow

Investing cash flows in FY20 primarily related to the net investments in Goodman’s Partnerships of $806.6 million (2019: $920.6 million). This investment occurred principally in Asia and North America to fund the ongoing development activity in those Partnerships. There were also capital returns from partnerships in Australia and North America of $428.4 million during FY20 as the Partnerships raised new debt.

The investment property acquisitions of $234.3 million were in Australia and the United Kingdom, although the United Kingdom property was sold to Goodman UK Partnership (disposal of controlled entities) later in the year. The investment property disposals also related to Australia.

Financing cash flow

Financing cash flows include the drawdowns and repayments associated with Goodman’s interest bearing liabilities. The principal financing cash outflows were the distributions paid to Securityholders.

Goodman Group

Outlook

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has not had a material financial impact on Goodman. For FY21, the business conditions for industrial assets are expected to remain favourable. The Group is strategically well placed given its financial and operational strength.

The Board sets targets annually and reviews them regularly. Overall, the Group expects to achieve operating profit for FY21 of $1,165 million, which equates to operating EPS of 62.7 cents, up 9% on FY20. Forecasts are subject to there being no material adverse change in market conditions or the occurrence of other unforeseen events.

Development demand continues to increase which has given the Group confidence to accelerate growth in WIP. The development WIP of $6.5 billion at 30 June 2020 has an average expected duration of about 17 months so the revenue from these projects will emerge during FY21 and FY22. Furthermore, with current customer demand levels and the Group’s capacity to meet this demand, the Group believes that there is scope for it to increase its level of development activity materially during FY21, which would see WIP exceed $7 billion by 31 December 2020. Other prospective projects currently being contemplated would result in this level of WIP being sustained for a prolonged period. This increase in development is projected to contribute to higher total AUM, resulting in growth in both property investment earnings and management earnings over time.

In order for the Group to fund the anticipated increase in the capital allocated to development activities, including funding its share of investment in Partnerships, and to keep the Group’s financial leverage at the appropriately lower end of the policy range, the Directors intend to hold the distribution at 30 cents per security for FY21 subject to achieving the anticipated profits.

Further information as to other likely developments in the operations of Goodman and the expected results of those operations in future financial years has not been included in this Directors’ report because disclosure of the information would be likely to result in unreasonable prejudice to Goodman.

Risks

Goodman identifies strategic and operational risks for each of its regions as part of its strategy process. The key risks, an assessment of their likelihood of occurrence and consequences and controls that are in place to mitigate the risks are reported to the Board annually.

Goodman has established formal systems and processes to manage the risks at each stage of its decision making process. This is facilitated by a Group Investment Committee comprising senior executives, chaired by the Group Chief Executive Officer, which considers all major operational decisions and transactions. The Group Investment Committee meets on a weekly basis.

The Board has separate committees to review and assess key risks. The Risk and Compliance Committee reviews and monitors a range of material risks in Goodman’s risk management systems including, among other risks, market risks, operational risks, sustainability, regulation and compliance and information technology. The Audit Committee reviews and monitors financial risk management and tax policies.

The key risks faced by Goodman and the controls that have been established to manage those risks are set out below:

REMUNERATION REPORT – AUDITED

Dear Securityholders,

On behalf of the Board, we are pleased to present the 2020 remuneration report, outlining Goodman’s remuneration strategy and principles.

Goodman’s remuneration framework is essential to attracting and retaining high quality professionals with local expertise, who develop businesses and relationships globally and drive Goodman’s long-term success. It is integral to the exceptional results delivered for Securityholders.

The past financial year has been marked by enormous challenges for the business and communities. Extreme weather conditions resulting in droughts and bushfires in Australia, followed by the global COVID-19 pandemic in the final months of this financial year caused unprecedented health, social and economic consequences.

Our business plays an important role in providing both essential infrastructure and making a tangible difference to the communities in which we operate, and Goodman has reacted to the crises through increasing support to affected groups.

Social impact grants from the Goodman Foundation and donations from Goodman staff have increased to $13.7million. This included contributions to the NSW Rural Fire Service and communities affected by the NSW bushfires, as well as Goodman’s charitable partners, and Goodman staff also provided 8,600 hours of volunteer assistance. Additionally, the Group has not taken any government relief in Australia (JobKeeper).

Managing the welfare of employees has been a critical consideration in achieving the Group’s financial and operational targets. This situation has required practically all employees to work remotely for extended periods of time. Our focus and commitment to keeping our teams motivated and demonstrating genuine support and concern for employees (and their families) have been considerable. Managers within the Group, in particular the senior executives have demonstrated significant levels of leadership, compassion and commitment in their efforts to achieve the Group’s commercial objectives.

Goodman is a leading internationally diversified real estate fund manager in the logistics real estate sector. The retention of talent is essential for the long term success of the business and is increasingly challenging as opportunistic competitors seek to recruit Goodman’s high-performing teams, in each of our markets. The Group’s remuneration policy plays a critical role in helping to ensure that Goodman has the right human resources to deliver our strategy, create the right culture and drive performance for all stakeholders.

Sustained performance

Over more than a decade, the Group has established strong and resilient leadership teams, financial resources and a strategic real estate portfolio, to maximise sustainability of earnings through difficult market cycles. This has allowed us to adapt to the new operating environment with limited disruption and continue to grow for the long term. As a result, the Board is proud that Goodman has performed strongly through this period despite world market dislocation and volatility. Our long-term vision, which includes a strong focus on cash flow, liquidity, and risk management, has been executed consistently and diligently.

FY20 results delivered significant outperformance both operationally and for Securityholders while positioning the business for future growth. Despite the market uncertainty, our measured approach over many years has allowed Goodman to retain, and also exceed, previous operating EPS guidance for FY20 and commit to firm operating EPS guidance for FY21. This is in an environment where most of the ASX listed entities have withdrawn FY20 guidance and are not expected to provide guidance for the year ahead. The Board’s belief in pay for performance culture is reflected in the challenging hurdles set for FY21 remuneration awards, which if achieved, will have provided Securityholders with top quartile performance and 30% growth in operating profit over the past three years (significantly ahead of consensus expectations for the S&P/ASX 100).

Key performance highlights include:

    • Significant outperformance of the major local and global indices in 2020 and over the medium and longer term (past three and five years
    • Goodman operating EPS growth materially exceeded targets compared with the S&P/ASX 100, which is expected to show an average -14.4% decline for FY20
    • Statutory profit of $1.5 billion for Goodman and $4.8 billion across the combined Group and Partnerships
    • Operating profit of $1.1 billion (+12.5%) in FY20 for Goodman
    • Significant growth in development work in progress (WIP) up 59% during FY20 to $6.5 billion at 30 June 2020, positioning the business well into FY21
    • Total assets under management (AUM) increased 12% to $51.6 billion
    • Substantial revaluation growth of $2.9 billion across the Group and Partnerships.

Continued improvement and alignment of the Long Term Incentive Plan

As you are aware, in 2019, the Board announced several changes to the remuneration framework which have now been implemented. Specifically, the operating EPS hurdle under the Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) is measured over three years from the date of each grant, as opposed to setting annual targets. We have also significantly enhanced our disclosures in support of variable remuneration, rationale for the performance metrics and the comparator sets used in assessing remuneration levels.

We believe that our fundamental principle of aligning all our people and Securityholders meaningfully through equity, is unique in the Australian market and has been a significant factor in building the resilience of our business. This should continue to deliver the Group’s and Securityholders’ desired outcomes despite the uncertain outlook for global markets.

In line with commentary in prior years, the Remuneration and Nomination Committee has made some additional distinctions in the remuneration approach applied to executive key management personnel (KMP) to further align them with long-term performance. Several years ago, the Group Chief Executive Officer (CEO) agreed with the Board to not receive short-term incentive (STI) but to receive all performance based remuneration in the form of long-term incentive (LTI), to focus on significant long-term alignment of pay with Securityholders’ returns. It was also consistent with a responsibility for developing and implementing a long-term strategy and providing leadership in this form of remuneration.

The other executive KMP can be differentiated in their roles and responsibilities where some hold regional responsibilities including specific financial targets and others perform wider global strategic roles. The Board and Remuneration and Nomination Committee have determined that where executive KMP have a greater focus on Group strategy and implementation, they should have a relatively larger proportion of equity based remuneration (as a proportion of total remuneration) and less emphasis on STI. The Board believes that these individuals have more influence on setting and maintaining the Group’s strategy and should be increasingly aligned with the long-term outcomes of the Group and returns to Securityholders. This structure also minimises the risk of inappropriate reward or penalisation as a result of market volatility and unexpected market movements over the short term.

Goodman Group

1. REMUNERATION PHILOSOPHY AND LINK TO BUSINESS STRATEGY

Goodman is a globally diversified real estate fund manager and one of the largest listed industrial property managers and developers in the world. Goodman’s people are largely based outside Australia, and consequently, Goodman’s remuneration structure has some key differences from the Australian market. This reflects the requirements of the labour markets we are competing in globally, not just in Australia, and the objective of aligning multiple regional businesses and operational segments with Group performance outcomes.

The retention of talent is critical for the long term and is increasingly challenging as opportunistic competitors seek to recruit Goodman’s high-performing teams, in each of our markets. The Group’s remuneration policy plays a critical role in helping to ensure that Goodman has the right human resources to deliver its strategy, create the right culture and drive performance for all stakeholders.

As a result, the key component of remuneration is equity based reward. The Board believes aligning ALL people at Goodman with Securityholders through the Group’s remuneration policy has added significant value to the Group. It has been a fundamental differentiator in generating and rewarding long-term performance and retaining Goodman’s people in a highly competitive global environment. It is particularly important in light of the challenges COVID-19 has created, as it binds all employees together as owners of the business and is a powerful incentive and driver of operational resilience.

Our remuneration framework takes a long-standing partnership approach where Goodman’s people participate in the long-term success of the Group alongside Securityholders .

1.1 The role of the Board and Remuneration and Nomination Committee

The Board believes the success of Goodman is primarily due to the depth of talent globally executing a strategy that requires strong collaboration and the culture of inclusion created by the LTIP.

As a result, the Board:

    • Encourages management to take a long-term strategic rather than opportunistic approach to property investment
    • Has overlaid the operational, financial and human strategy in order to create long-term sustainable returns
    • Focuses on the consistency of cash profit as the most tangible means of measuring long-term value creation for Securityholders.

The Board annually considers remuneration with a three to five year view. It considers how the performance of the Group has been influenced by the decisions over the last three to five years and how it expects the business to perform over the next three to five years. It is not solely an exercise in reviewing a single year.

The Remuneration and Nomination Committee has considered the specifics of individual performance, in the context of the COVID-19 environment and collectively in the context of the Group’s continued strong performance. Given the nature of the Group’s global operations, the Remuneration and Nomination Committee has paid particular attention to the global marketplace and the competitors in that sector. Industrial and logistics real estate, and Goodman’s success, has made its people a target for new entrants to the sector and existing competitors looking to emulate the Group’s performance. The Remuneration and Nomination Committee believes this requires a wide global remit in order to set competitive remuneration allowing for the strong component of remuneration that is at risk.

1.2 Key remuneration principles

Given the cyclical nature of real estate, incentive structures within real estate businesses are highly outcome driven (particularly by private equity real estate managers where most institutional assets reside).

This changing international landscape will result in Goodman’s capital and resource allocations shifting over time, with the aim of delivering the best risk adjusted returns overall albeit this may be to the detriment of one part of the global business and to the benefit of another. The Group’s remuneration framework is therefore focused on influencing longterm decision making and collaboration across business units and international operations to derive sustainable outcomes.

While considered unique in the Australian market, the LTIP reflects several key principles of remuneration at Goodman:

    • Focus on LTI as the predominant source of pay for performance. All employees are eligible to receive LTI grants as a material component of remuneration and are tested using challenging hurdles (see section 2.4.2), enhancing alignment of rewards across the Group with Securityholders
    • Aligning the deliverable outcomes of all employees globally with Goodman’s aspirations of long-term cash flow growth, resilience and sustainability. This is practically achieved through the focus on operating profit (which reflects cash profits) as the primary testing measure for LTI awards (see section 2.4.1)
    • Collaboration to achieve Group-wide targets across regions and business units
    • A culture of ownership, inclusion and alignment.

This philosophy has enabled Goodman to deliberately position its business over the past decade to maximise sustainability of earnings in varying market cycles that has resulted in consistent long-term security price outperformance.

Assessment of conduct is continual
in the organisation and is a gate to

non-financial objective, in particular
adhering to the Code of Conduct, is
an absolute and hence applying a
specific percentage weighting to
each measure is not effective.
STI is an at-risk component, rewarding financial and non-financial
performance against objectives of the individual and the Group. Awards
have varied from 0% to 100% of the maximum over time and have
averaged 57% of maximum allowable over the past five years.
The performance of individuals is assessed through a detailed bottom
up performance appraisal process based on contribution to defined
objectives that reflect behavioural expectations, annual contribution to
results as well as strategic and other contributions where these results
or benefits may be reflected in future years. Base salaries for the
executive KMP roles are set low versus peers and this is carried through
in lower STI outcomes for relevant KMP. The focus on STI as a form of
reward has reduced in favour of LTI, in line with a culture and ethos of
sustainable outcomes.
Operating profit growth and capital management are of the highest
importance in financial assessment. These factors together encourage
not only the operating EPS targets being met but also that the method in
which they are met matches appropriate risk and quality settings.
This structure is simple and transparent and aligns management with
the operating EPS growth expectations of Securityholders.

The weighting to LTI is believed to be the most effective way of
rewarding sustained performance and retaining talent.
Despite the impact of COVID-19 the security price has remained stable
and underlying performance has exceeded targets. The expected
number of performance rights to be awarded in FY21 will be broadly
consistent with FY20, and fewer than that vesting in September 2020.
Operating EPS is a critical measure of long-term performance (see
section 2.4.1).
Hurdles are set to be competitive and challenging (see section 2.4.2)
relative to external and internal reference points.
The relative TSR and operating EPS hurdles interact as TSR impacts
the value of all performance rights. Given the significant skew in
remuneration to performance rights, the impact of the TSR hurdle is
greater than its 25% weighting in that TSR provides an effective check
against increasing risk practices within the Group. The price to earnings

The maximum number of performance rights under the LTIP is limited to

2. EXECUTIVE REMUNERATION FRAMEWORK

2.1 Peer group and quantum assessment

As in previous years, the Board and Remuneration and Nomination Committee have considered the entire enterprise of the Group and its Partnerships globally, when assessing the executives roles.

In this context, Goodman:

    • Is an international real estate fund manager
    • Manages and creates value in respect of $51.6 billion of assets globally
    • Manages capital allocation and funding across various activity types, which is sourced from multiple sophisticated markets and jurisdictions
    • Is one of the largest developer of logistics real estate in the world, with a current WIP of $6.5 billion of new product
    • Generated a combined statutory profit across the Group and Partnerships of $4.8 billion in FY20
    • Is the 13th largest entity listed on the ASX and is a member of the S&P/ASX 20 index
    • Generates 72% of earnings from management and development activities which require more intensive day to day activity than a passive investment portfolio
    • Provides its customers and partners with investment management, asset management, development, financial, transaction and capital management services in the listed and private equity capital markets globally
    • Derives 72% of earnings from international markets with 70% of employees situated offshore.

The Group has limited direct comparable real estate market peers in Australia, having operating businesses in five continents and 17 countries, each with market driven remuneration outcomes. The Group’s 958 staff (at 30 June 2020) are mostly offshore, and consequently Goodman competes for labour in an international market, which the Board considers when assessing the quantum of remuneration awards.

2.1.1 Peer group comparators and considerations for the Group CEO

The comparisons of various peer groups, chief executive officers’ and the Goodman CEO remuneration, have been considered by the Board in the context of the underlying remuneration structure, determining the components and the hurdles which apply.

Private equity managers were also considered for comparison, particularly with respect to the nature of pay for performance remuneration structures in those types of enterprises but were not cited as direct comparisons for quantum setting purposes.

For many entities, returns in FY20 are likely to have been significantly dislocated given the impact of COVID-19 which should be taken into account when assessing the comparator group.

When assessing the Group CEO’s remuneration for FY20 the components considered by the Board are:

    • Current fixed base pay
    • Performance rights to be awarded in FY21 (subject to securityholder approval) to be tested over FY21 - FY23 and vesting in FY24 - FY26.

The assessment of the value of the performance rights referred to in this section uses face value metrics, as opposed to the economic value. This is common market practice. That is, no discount has been applied to the attributed value of performance rights for vesting risk or time value of money. The Board has considered the total remuneration noting in its determination that the comparability of other remuneration schemes is limited, particularly as it relates to:

    • Proportion at risk - fixed pay is significantly lower in absolute terms and represents only 9% of total potential remuneration for FY20. As in previous years the Group CEO will not participate in the STI award or any other form of variable cash remuneration (comparatively, the market average fixed pay and STI is approximately 50% of total remuneration)
    • 91% of his remuneration for FY20 performance will be taken in the form of performance rights, the ultimate value of which is at risk. By way of comparison, the average proportion of remuneration in LTI for the S&P/ASX 20 and S&P/ASX 100 is 51% and 48% respectively.

This means that the Group CEO would not receive any LTI in respect of his performance for FY20 if the Group did not meet its performance hurdles under the LTIP over the next three years. Furthermore, the ultimate value of the award will be subject to Goodman’s security price performance over the next five years. Full remuneration for performance in FY20 will only be realised if these conditions are satisfied, and Goodman’s performance is at least sustained until FY26.

This results in a more significant portion of the Group CEO’s remuneration that is at risk compared to most other ASX listed entities.

The Board considers Goodman’s remuneration awards have been set on the basis that the hurdles set for the FY21 performance rights awards are significantly more challenging than relative to the FY20 awards. This is due to the more uncertain and volatile operating ESG expected in the future (see section 2.4.2 on proposed FY21 LTIP EPS grant targets).

2.2 Remuneration components for executive KMP – continued enhancements

The Remuneration and Nomination Committee has continued to make improvements to the structure of remuneration. In FY20, the Board made some additional distinctions in the remuneration approach applied to individual KMP to further align them with long-term performance. Several years ago, the Group CEO agreed with the Board that he would not participate in the STI scheme and any performance based remuneration would be in the form of LTI, to increase longterm alignment of pay with Securityholders’ returns. It was also consistent with the Group CEO’s responsibility for developing and implementing a long-term strategy.

The Board believes the other executive KMP can be differentiated in their roles and responsibilities where some hold specific regional responsibilities and others perform wider global strategic roles.

The Board has determined that:

    • Nick Kurtis (Group Head of Equities), Michael O’Sullivan (Group Chief Risk Officer) and Nick Vrondas (Group Chief Financial Officer) who have a greater focus on Group strategy and implementation should have a relatively larger proportion of equity based remuneration (as a proportion of total remuneration) and less emphasis on STI. The change reflects that these individuals have more influence on the setting and maintaining the Group’s strategy and should be increasingly aligned with the long-term outcomes of the Group and returns to Securityholders
    • Anthony Rozic (Chief Executive Officer, North America) and Danny Peeters (Executive Director, Corporate) with regional operational responsibilities continue to have a more balanced weighting to STI in line with the current approach. Their STI remuneration is also expected to be more variable reflecting annual achievements.

29

Goodman Group

Directors’ report

Remuneration report - audited (continued)

On that basis, STI awards for executive KMP (excluding the Group CEO) have declined by 27% compared with FY19, while LTI awards have increased 12% from the FY19 levels. Overall remuneration awarded for these executive KMP has been set with reference to the individual achievement, market comparatives, and the proportion of remuneration at risk for each executive KMP.

There are no changes to fixed remuneration levels for executive KMP in FY21.

The chart below illustrates the components of KMP remuneration using:

    • Current fixed base pay
    • The STI outcome
    • An LTI award value using 100% of intended grant to be made in FY21 at $14.85 per right, which was the security price at 30 June 2020.

==> picture [414 x 177] intentionally omitted <==

This chart reflects the significant level of overall remuneration that is at risk. This analysis is different to both the statutory presentation of remuneration and the vested remuneration, which are detailed later in the remuneration report.

2.2.1 When is remuneration earned and received?

Performance goals must be achieved over a period of three years to qualify for performance based pay. Vesting then occurs in equal tranches from years three to five. However, there is no certainty of vesting and the outcome is dependent on the movement in the security price over the next five years.

The chart below illustrates the timing of receipt of the remuneration components. It demonstrates the requirement for sustained operational performance over five years from the end of FY20 for the performance based remuneration to vest. This is further emphasised by a significant proportion of the executive KMP remuneration that is in the form of LTI.

2.3.1 Code of Conduct

The way employees conduct themselves is crucial to the success of the Group. Goodman has consistent and transparent practices in place for managing non-compliance with policies and the approach to risk guides the way all employees are expected to conduct themselves and hence all remuneration is subject to meeting these requirements.

Within the Code of Conduct, there is a set of eight guiding principles that encourage employees to uphold Goodman’s reputation and behave appropriately in dealing with the Group’s customers and other team members. Employees are assessed continually against these principles. The guiding principles are:

    • Act in a professional manner
    • Work as a team and respect others
    • Treat stakeholders fairly
    • Value honesty and integrity
    • Follow the law and the Group’s policies
    • Respect confidentiality and do not misuse information
    • Manage conflicts of interest
    • Strive to be a great team member

The Board also believes that ownership through the LTIP embeds a culture of inclusion and sense of place in Goodman and that this has been strongly reflected in the Group’s performance over many years and particularly through COVID19. While assessment is continual, the Code of Conduct is a gate to an individual’s eligibility to receive a STI and LTI at the time of assessment. The Board believes that this is an absolute requirement and hence applying a fixed percentage reduction to the measure is less effective.

The proportional impact of this measure on STI can be anything from 0% to 100%, as any breach of the Code can have levels of severity ranging from cessation of employment to minor performance issues which can be managed and rectified and may require varying levels of financial impact, training and/or personal development.

2.4 LTI parameters

The LTIP is an equity plan whose rewards are at risk. It is open to all permanent employees to create alignment with the interests of Securityholders over the long term.

    • No value is derived from LTI unless minimum cumulative performance hurdles of operating EPS and relative TSR are met or exceeded, and performance rights have no entitlement to income or assets until they vest.
    • If performance achieves or exceeds long-term targets and performance rights vest, LTI represents the majority of remuneration for executive KMP and becomes a material component of remuneration for all participating employees.

The Board believes that the commercial decisions Goodman makes in fulfilment of its overall financial
objectives are best reflected in two key indicators: operating EPS and TSR (relative to the S&P/ASX 100).
Operating EPS is a critical measure of long-term global performance of the operations (see section 2.4.1).
The hurdles are set to be competitive and challenging relative to external and internal historical and
prospective reference points (see section 2.4.2).
TSR provides an effective check against increasing risk practices within the Group i.e. the security price to

KMP equity holding There is no specific requirement for executive KMP to hold a minimum value of Goodman equity. Goodman’s

2.4.1 Operating EPS – long-term cash flow alignment with vesting outcomes

The Group provides statutory profit disclosure in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, including all required specific disclosures. The Board believes that managing the business, on what is primarily a cash profit basis, is fundamental to long-term resilience and is the strongest determinant of value creation over time. That is the intent of the operating profit definition. The measure has been consistently applied since being adopted in 2005.

    • Operating profit intentionally excludes non-cash measures. In addition, in the past, the Group has excluded significant realised gains (such as the urban renewal realisation gains) where these were believed to be cyclical in nature and not reflective of long-term earnings
    • The share based payments (SBP) expense reflects the amortisation of the aggregated fair value applicable to outstanding performance rights. It is disclosed and expensed in the Group’s statutory accounts per the accounting standards. The SBP expense is excluded from the Group’s operating profit, like other non-cash items (such as revaluations). It is also excluded from regional budgets, as the expense is volatile and has no linkage to operational outcomes
    • Outcomes for employees through the LTIP and equity performance are directly aligned with the long-term cash profit growth of the business defined as operating EPS, which is believed to be the real driver of performance
    • Operating EPS is a transparent driver of employee behaviour providing a key link between the generation of operational outcomes at an individual level and the overall outcomes directly reflected in operating EPS, which drives Securityholder value.

34

Goodman Group

Importantly for Securityholders, the Board believes that SBP:

    • Have no impact on Securityholder value until they vest when they dilute net tangible assets (NTA) and future earnings
    • Do not reflect the cost of the plan to Securityholders or the true value to employees
    • Increase volatility and decrease earnings transparency on a short-term basis depending on movements in security price, subjective assessments and other valuation parameters. (The Group’s SBP expense decreased 17% in FY20 compared to FY19).

Furthermore, any dilution to Securityholders through the potential issuance of securities under the LTIP is allowed for in the operating EPS assessment, as the weighted average number of securities includes the securities on issue plus those performance rights that at the start of each financial year had met the three year operating EPS and TSR hurdles but had not yet vested. The Board considers this to be conservative as prior to vesting, performance rights have no entitlement to income or net assets, and therefore there is no dilution to Securityholders.

    • The financial impact of the performance rights occurs only when securities are issued, through the future operating EPS dilution
    • Not all performance rights necessarily vest. This can only occur if testing criteria are met and by extension, the Group’s performance has achieved or exceeded performance criteria
    • Following successful testing at year three, only one third of the tested performance rights vest at that time. The remainder have no rights until they vest, following the end of years four and five.

2.4.2 Operating EPS hurdles for proposed FY21 awards

The operating EPS target range used here is for the purpose of remuneration only, specifically the testing criteria for vesting of performance rights. The range does not constitute earnings guidance for the Group.

The Board has set an operating EPS performance hurdle for FY21 of growing operating EPS from the FY20 result of 57.5 cents to between 68.7 cents (Threshold level) and 74.5 cents (Upper level) in FY23. At the Threshold level, 25% satisfy the hurdle with a sliding scale up to 100% satisfying the hurdle at the Upper level. This range is equivalent to between 6% and 9% CAGR in operating EPS or approximately 19% to 30% cumulative over the three year testing period.

Despite market uncertainty, Goodman has committed to firm operating EPS guidance for FY21. This is in an environment where most of the ASX listed entities have withdrawn or reduced guidance and are not expected to give guidance for the year ahead.

The effective CAGR hurdle is the same as for FY20 awards, but the Board believes the FY21 hurdle is significantly more challenging given the current economic environment. The hurdle is set for the entire period of the grant and hence performance must be achieved regardless of changes to business conditions globally. Management and other employees carry the risk associated with external factors negatively impacting operating earnings and in the Board’s view this risk has increased due to the unknown impacts of the current pandemic.

The range has been set with particular reference to:

    • Analyst current consensus expectations of CAGR in operating EPS of c5% for Goodman over three years compared with the Threshold at 6% for 25% vesting and Upper level at 9% for 100% vesting
    • The range of potential real estate opportunities for the Group globally, given Goodman’s risk parameters and concentrated locations
    • The long-run historical performance of the Group
    • The global economic environment, noting the uncertainty around COVID-19 induced economic malaise, that the current rate of inflation in Australia and the major markets in which Goodman operates globally is around 1% per annum and the current 10 year rate of interest on government securities in Australia and most major markets is below 1% per annum.

35

Goodman Group

Directors’ report

Remuneration report - audited (continued)

The Board also notes that:

    • The Group’s FY20 operating EPS growth (which sets the base year for hurdles) was 11.4% (ahead of original target at 9%)
  • The S&P/ASX 100 consensus forecast average of a -14.4% EPS decline for FY20

  • This significant reduction in FY20 EPS for the S&P/ASX 100 will likely give the appearance of higher future growth rates (off the lower base). Despite Goodman’s resultant relatively higher starting point, the Group must still deliver significantly higher growth than the S&P/ASX 100 consensus forecast average to achieve the operating EPS Threshold hurdle (where only 25% of securities vest).

The hurdles are always set with the desire to achieve a sustainable long-term growth rate that is competitive with the market on a risk adjusted basis, reflecting the low financial leverage of Goodman and other risk settings particularly in the current global pandemic and economic environment. In the Board’s view, increasing hurdles to unsustainable levels would encourage riskier behaviour, inconsistent with an acceptable risk tolerance and framework and expectations of Securityholders. This could potentially lead to lower quality earnings and adversely affect the intent of the LTIP and ultimately Securityholder returns.

3. REMUNERATION OUTCOMES AND THE LINK BETWEEN PERFORMANCE AND REWARD

Despite the significant headwinds caused by the global pandemic, the Group has recorded another year of material outperformance, both of its external relative targets and its internal operational targets. FY20 ended amid significant market volatility due to COVID-19 however, while Goodman’s security price has not been immune to the volatility in equity markets, its relative performance in FY20 continued to be significantly ahead of its peer groups, following 10 years of outperformance.

Importantly, all employees at Goodman are eligible to receive a proportion of their remuneration in performance rights which are deferred for five years and require challenging operational targets to be met in order to be received. This results in all employees having an ongoing significant exposure to Goodman equity performance which has ensured the strong alignment of employees with Securityholders. This is a long-standing feature of Goodman’s remuneration approach and the Board believes it is an important factor in operating through market cycles.

3.1 Group FY20 highlights

Financial Statutory profit of $1,504.1 million for Goodman and $4.8 billion for the combined Group and Partnerships Operating profit of $1,060.2 million (up 12.5% on FY19) Operating EPS of 57.5 cents (up 11.4% on FY19) Maintained distribution of 30.0 cents per security Net tangible assets (NTA) per security increased 9.4% to $5.84 per security Operational property investment, management and development High occupancy maintained at 97.5% and like for like net property income growth of 3% Total AUM of $51.6 billion (up 12% on FY19) Significant outperformance by the 15 Partnerships achieving average returns of 16.6% Development WIP increased 59% to $6.5 billion and expected to grow in FY21, with higher precommitment levels and 15 year weighted average lease term People and culture All permanent employees are equity owners through the LTIP Significant community impact made by the Goodman Foundation, with contributions from the Foundation and Goodman staff more than doubling to $13.7 million and Goodman people around the world volunteering 8,600 hours of their time Implemented additional strategies to improve labour standards, improved fair work practices, improve ethical standards in the business community and eradicate potential instances of modern-day slavery in the Group’s supply chains LEAD safety performance metrics highlight further reduced safety non-conformances in Goodman’s projects and asset management operations 99% of employees assessed as demonstrating Goodman values Environmental Implementation of Goodman’s 2030 sustainability strategy that focuses on the Group’s material environmental, social and governance priorities and twelve pivotal sustainability targets Goodman targeting net zero operational carbon emissions and 400MW of solar installations globally by 2025 Global climate risk assessment completed in accordance with Taskforce on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) Goodman awarded the Global Sector Leader in the 2019 Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark (Developer – Industrial category) Capital management Maintained significant Group available liquidity at $2.8 billion, including $1.8 billion in cash Significant business growth while maintaining low gearing at 7.5% Group and Partnerships completed debt refinancing transactions totalling $3.1 billion

Goodman Group

Directors’ report

Remuneration report - audited (continued)

Over the past decade, the Group has established significant human capital, financial resources and a strategic real estate portfolio. It has deliberately positioned its business to maximise cash flow resilience in varying market cycles, primarily through;

    • Concentration of the portfolio on logistics real estate in urban infill markets, where supply is limited and demand is driven by consumers
    • Deleveraging the Group’s balance sheet and retaining significant liquidity
    • Partnering with long-term capital to share risk and return over a significant globally diversified platform

This has included specific actions over successive years, including:

    • Significant reduction in financial leverage (gearing) over the last decade from 47.9% to 7.5%
    • Increased quality of the property portfolio through over $23 billion of asset sales since 2013 concentrating the portfolio in predominantly urban infill markets and providing funding for the development of new buildings
    • Diversification of the Group’s sources of debt and tenor
    • Reduced operational risk through undertaking more development activity in Partnerships, which has reduced volatility of earnings but increasing return on assets for the Group. The impact of increased development within the Partnerships has increased their returns and the prospects for performance fees in the medium to longer term
    • Significant sales of assets that were reconfigured for higher and better residential use. On these transactions, the substantial profit was not included in operating profit despite being cash realised gains as they were believed to be over and above the usual course of business
    • Maintained a conservative distribution pay-out ratio to retain funding for growing development demand.

The resilience of the Group through this period, is in large part due to this strategic long-term thinking and incentivising employees through equity linked to sustained operational performance over a long period.

Goodman Group

The key financial metrics which are aligned with the Group’s strategy, long-term performance and STI and LTI programs for all employees are operating EPS and relative TSR. CAGR in operating EPS over the past five years has been 9.1%, which has exceeded the forecasts and therefore the hurdles. This has been achieved while at the same time reducing gearing.

3.4 Remuneration mix alignment across the Group

The Board believes that the alignment between pay and long-term performance is evidenced by the significant portion of remuneration at risk for the Group CEO, the other executive KMP and the whole organisation, that is in the form of LTI.

The portion of remuneration at-risk (FY20 STI and performance rights that vested in FY20) as a proportion of total remuneration for the Group CEO, the other executive KMP and the remainder of employees, is illustrated in the charts below. They show strong alignment between Securityholders and all employees as the remuneration received as depicted below requires five years of continued performance. Future remuneration outcomes will depend on the Group achieving its hurdles over the long term and the security price.

Vested remuneration is often considered by stakeholders as it represents the value that is actually received by the KMP during the year. It includes fixed base pay, STI and the value of performance rights that actually vested during the year as a result of grants made in prior periods, using the closing Goodman security price on the day of vesting.

3.5 Group performance and remuneration outcomes

3.5.1 STI outcomes

The Board has again agreed with the Group CEO that he will not participate in the STI award. In line with continued focus on sustained long-term performance, all performance based remuneration relating to the Group CEO’s FY20 performance will be awarded in the form of LTI.

Given the global nature of the Group’s operations the recommendations for each executive KMP are based on the Remuneration and Nomination Committee’s review of several sources of market information relating to the individual’s role, region and global comparisons and specific incentive schemes that apply in competitor organisations.

In FY20, the Board made some additional distinctions in the remuneration approach applied to individual KMP to further align them with long-term performance. The executive KMP STI outcomes (excluding the Group CEO), on average, are down 27% in FY20, compared with FY19, (averaging 63% of the maximum potential versus 89% in FY19). This reflects the Board’s decision to focus reward in the form of LTI for the KMP whose roles have greater focus on overall Group strategy. The table below indicates the maximum possible STI and the actual STI awarded.

It should be noted that based on the Group and individual performances in FY20, KMP were eligible for the maximum STI.

3.5.2 LTI outcomes

Performance rights are granted on an annual basis, are tested over three years and vest in three equal tranches shortly after the third, fourth and fifth anniversary of the grant. Testing as at 30 June 2020 was completed for the grants of performance rights made to executive KMP in respect of executive KMP performance in FY17 (called FY18 awards). The FY18 awards had two hurdles: operating EPS and a relative TSR, both measured over the three years ended 30 June 2020.

The mechanics of the testing are detailed in section 2.4. The first tranche of the FY18 awards will vest in September 2020, the second tranche will vest in September 2021 and the third tranche in September 2022.

Operating EPS hurdle (75% weighting)

The operating EPS is calculated by dividing operating profit by the weighted average number of securities on issue adjusted to include all performance rights which have passed the testing criteria, even though they are not yet vested (issued) to account for potential EPS dilution. Operating EPS growth for the three year period to 30 June 2020 was 33.4%, compared to a cumulative three year target of 23.9%. For each year, the operating EPS was based on the weighted average number of securities on issue plus those performance rights that at the start of the year had met the three year EPS and TSR hurdles but had not yet vested.

As a result of achieving the operating EPS hurdle, a total of 11,775,723 equity settled performance rights will vest in September 2020, September 2021 and September 2022. In addition, 2,273,813 cash settled performance rights will also vest. The Group may elect to issue the equivalent number of new securities to raise funds to satisfy those obligations in the future.

Relative TSR (25% weighting)

TSR provides an effective check against increasing risk practices within the Group, as the price to earnings multiple will reflect the perceived risk in the Group.

Relative TSR is measured against the S&P/ASX 100 peer group. Vesting applies a sliding scale:

  • 0% vests up to and including the 50th percentile

  • Vesting of 50% starts at the 51st percentile on a sliding scale with 100% vesting at the 75th percentile.

Goodman posted a three year TSR of 103.4% to 30 June 2020, compared with the S&P/ASX 100 index performance of 17.1%. This ranked Goodman in the 93[rd] percentile and consequently 100% of these performance rights vested.

3.5.3 Group CEO

In FY20, the Board considered the following highlights when assessing the Group CEO, Gregory Goodman:

    • Developed and drove a consistent global business strategy across all markets to sustain the performance of the Group despite significant challenges presented by COVID-19. The Group has adapted to these challenges and continues to outperform its own targets and the broader market performance, retaining employees and increasing community support and charitable programs.
    • Exceeded earnings guidance through the COVID-19 affected period, while most companies on the ASX withdrew guidance for FY20
    • Outperformed benchmark indices and comparator companies in FY20 and delivered strong and sustained TSR of 103.4% over three years and 170% over five years
    • Delivered:
  • Statutory profit of $1,504 million, driven by growth in property values as a result of asset selection over the past few years and operational activities such as development

  • Operating profit of $1,060 million, up 12.5% on FY19

  • Operating EPS of 57.5 cents, up 11.4% on FY19

  • NTA increased 9% to $5.84 per security

    • Decreased financial leverage to 7.5% and maintained strong Group balance sheet with $2.8 billion of liquidity
    • Instrumental in significantly increasing sustainability initiatives and programs for the Group. This has included establishing a zero carbon emissions target for the Group by 2025, increasing the 2025 target for solar PV capacity installed on the rooftops of Goodman’s global portfolios from 100MW to 400MW and implementing compliance with TCFD
    • Fostered a culture that focused on delivering quality across all aspects of the business: people, properties and service
    • Lead global internal programs to promote a strong culture of inclusion, collaboration and conduct across the organisation, underpinned by the long held principles in the Group’s Code of Conduct, treating all stakeholders with integrity, and accountability
    • Reinforced Goodman’s purpose aimed at understanding the drivers of change and the needs of the Group’s customers and all stakeholders to support their future success
    • Integrated strong risk management approaches globally
    • Lead the shift for all employees to increase alignment with Securityholders through the LTIP as the preferred form of remuneration by taking 100% of performance based remuneration in performance rights
    • Increased Goodman Foundation commitments to enable it to meet its $50 million 2030 social impact target. The Group CEO drove:
  • Contributions of $13.7 million in FY20, including $6.6 million for Australian communities affected by the recent bushfires and $7.1 million contributed by the Foundation and the Goodman team across a number of Foundation programs.

  • Directed the Goodman team globally to contribute 8,600 hours of service through the year. The Goodman Foundation focuses on children and youth, community and its health, and food rescue and the environment. Meal program and food rescue charities that have been supported by Goodman since their inception have provided over 130 million meals globally.

Goodman Group

The charts below demonstrate the performance of the Group and various key metrics relative to the Group CEO’s vested remuneration outcomes in FY20 and prior years. They illustrate significant alignment of Group CEO remuneration outcomes and the key metrics for testing and vesting of performance rights. Significant operating profit growth, security price growth and consequently returns for Securityholders over the testing periods, correlate with increased Group CEO remuneration over time. Given the strong increase in the market price of securities between the time of the grant and the time of vesting, the Group CEO (and all beneficiaries of the LTIP) have participated in the performance alongside all investors in the Group.

Importantly, the Group CEO’s vested remuneration as a proportion of TSR (in $ billion) has trended lower over the past five years, indicating that the Securityholders have experienced a more than proportionate benefit from the Group’s performance relative to the Group CEO.

==> picture [178 x 177] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [169 x 177] intentionally omitted <==

The table below includes awarded remuneration at the grant date and the vested remuneration over the past five years for the Group CEO. The numbers in this table differ from the statutory disclosure in section 6 primarily due to the differences in the measurement and timing of recognition in respect of performance rights granted under the LTIP and not the final vesting outcome. The below figures show the base salary received by the Group CEO in the respective year plus the value of performance rights which vested during that year at the closing price on the day the performance rights vested.

The table highlights:

  • No change in fixed remuneration over the period

  • The proportion of remuneration from fixed (cash) salary has continued to decline

  • Significant growth in the value of LTI from grant date to the vesting date due to the increase in security price (on average an increase of 119% for grants vesting in FY20).

3.6 LTI grants in FY21 in relation to FY20 performance

The remuneration awards made by the Board in respect of the executive KMP performance in FY20 comprise fixed remuneration, STI and awards under the LTIP that will be made in FY21. As discussed in section 2.1, the performance rights will be tested at the end of FY23. The vesting of those performance rights that achieve the performance hurdles will occur in equal tranches in September 2023, September 2024 and September 2025. The minimum vesting percentage is 0% if hurdles are not met.

Over the past two years, the number of performance rights proposed to be awarded to the Group CEO have decreased 42%.

In determining its intended award of performance rights, the Board has considered the face value of the FY21 awards for each executive KMP. This assumes 100% vesting and therefore represents the maximum number of potential securities. It does not consider the risk of achieving the performance hurdles and that performance rights have no entitlement to distributions over the vesting period or the time value of money.

Directors’ report

Remuneration report - audited (continued)

Executive KMP are engaged under written employment contracts until notice is given by either Goodman or the executive KMP. Notice periods are for six months except for Gregory Goodman and Danny Peeters for whom the period is 12 months. Danny Peeters provides his services through a management company, DPCON Bvba.

Footnotes to the executive KMP remuneration table

  1. Salary and fees represent the amounts due under the terms of executives’ service contracts and include movements in annual leave provisions.

  2. Executives’ bonus (STI) awards are paid in two instalments: 50% on finalisation of Goodman’s financial statements and 50% 12 months later. Under Australian Accounting Standards, this means the entire bonus award is considered as a long-term benefit with regard to the disclosure of individual executive’s remuneration. No bonuses were forfeited during the financial year.

  3. Other includes reportable fringe benefits, car parking and changes in long service leave provisions.

  4. During the period, the Board agreed certain tax equalisation arrangements with Anthony Rozic in connection with his employment arrangements in the United States and Australia to ensure that he was no better or worse off. The Board agreed to pay additional tax related amounts of US$150,005 relating to the period prior to 1 January 2019. These amounts were on top of his Australian tax obligations for which he remained exclusively responsible.

  5. The Board also advanced under an interest free loan, double-tax amounts for which Foreign Income Tax Offsets from the Australian Taxation Office will be used to repay the advances. At 1 July 2019, the advances amounted to $nil and at 30 June 2020 equalled US$503,729, the maximum during the period. The amount of interest that would have been payable if charged on an arms-length basis during the period would have been $8,490. The additional tax related amount and the notional interest amount have been included in Anthony Rozic’s statutory remuneration for FY20 (Other remuneration).

No other executive KMP received a loan from the Group during the current or prior financial years.

  1. Performance rights are an LTI and in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards: the values of the awards are determined using option pricing models and amortised in the income statement over the vesting periods. The determination of the values of the performance rights that are subject to the operating EPS hurdles also reflect an assessment of the probability of the hurdles being met.

  2. The remuneration of Danny Peeters is disclosed in Euros, the currency in which his base remuneration and STI are determined. The value attributed to his performance rights is translated from Australian dollars at the weighted average rate for the relevant financial year.

  3. The remuneration of Anthony Rozic is disclosed in US dollars, the currency in which his base remuneration and STI are determined. The value attributed to his performance rights is translated from Australian dollars at the weighted average rate for the relevant financial year.

5. NON-EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR REMUNERATION

5.1 Key elements of the Non-Executive Director remuneration policy

The policy is structured to ensure independence of judgement in the performance of their duties.
Non-Executive Directors receive fixed fees for Board membership and additional fees for membership of
committees.
The fees consider the size and scope of Goodman’s activities and the responsibilities and experience of the
Directors. Periodically, these fees are benchmarked against data for comparable entities provided by
external advisers.
As approved by Securityholders at the 2006 Annual General Meeting, total remuneration (including
superannuation) payable by Goodman to all Non-Executive Directors in aggregate must not exceed $2.5
million per annum. For the current financial year, total Non-Executive Directors’ remuneration was
$2.3million(2019:$2.1 million).
The increase in Non-Executive Director fees compared to the prior financial year was due to the change in
composition of the Board. There have been no changes to the Board and committee annual fees since 1
January 2018.
Non-Executive Directors are not entitled to participate in any STI or LTI schemes as they may be perceived
to create a biaswhenoverseeing executive decision making.
The Board has a policy, set out in the Directors’ Securities Acquisition Plan, for Non-Executive Directors to
accumulate a significant long-term holding of Goodman securities so that they have an alignment of interests
with those of Securityholders. Under the policy, each Non-Executive Director is required to acquire securities
such that their holding is equal in value to twice their annual base fees. The value of securities for this
purpose equals the higher of purchase cost or market value at the end of each financial year. This holding
may be acquired at any time but where not held at the beginning of a financial year, the policy is for 25% of
basefees (netof tax) duringthefinancialyear to be appliedtothe on-marketpurchase ofsecurities.

Goodman Group

Footnotes to the analysis of executive KMP performance rights table

  1. The fair value was determined at grant date and calculated using a combination of the standard Black Scholes model with a continuous dividend/distribution yield and a Monte Carlo model which simulated total returns for each of the ASX 100 entities and discounted the future value of any potential future vesting performance rights to arrive at a present value.

  2. As performance rights had an exercise price of $nil, Goodman securities were automatically issued to employees when the performance rights vested. Accordingly, the percentage of performance rights that vested during the financial year equalled the percentage of securities issued during the financial year.

  3. The value of performance rights vested was calculated using the closing price of a Goodman security on the ASX of $14.26 on 2 September 2019, the day the performance rights vested.

  4. As Goodman securities were automatically issued to employees when the performance rights vested, and lapsed where they failed to do so, the vesting date was also deemed to be the expiry date.

6.3 Securities issued on exercise of performance rights

During FY20, Goodman issued 14,531,241 securities as a result of the vesting of performance rights. The amount paid by the employees on exercise of these securities was $nil.

No performance rights have vested since the end of the financial year.

6.4 Unissued securities under performance rights

At the date of this Directors’ report, unissued securities of Goodman under performance rights i.e. those performance rights that have not yet vested, were:

Expiry date Exercise price $ Number of performance rights1

15,700,964
Sep 2021 -
12,486,798

5,276,111
  1. The number of performance rights at the date of this Directors’ report is net of any rights forfeited and excludes 11,734,292 performance rights where the intention is to cash settle.

Goodman Group

Directors’ report

(continued)

Environmental regulations

Goodman has policies and procedures to identify and appropriately address environmental obligations that might arise in respect of Goodman’s operations that are subject to significant environmental laws and regulation. The Directors have determined that Goodman has complied with those obligations during the financial year and that there has not been any material breach.

Declaration by the Group Chief Executive Officer and Group Chief Financial Officer

The Group Chief Executive Officer and Group Chief Financial Officer declared in writing to the Board that, in their opinion, the financial records of Goodman for the year ended 30 June 2020 have been properly maintained and the financial report for the year ended 30 June 2020 complies with accounting standards and presents a true and fair view of Goodman’s financial condition and operational results. The Group Chief Executive Officer and Group Chief Financial Officer confirmed that the above declaration was, to the best of their knowledge and belief, founded on a sound system of risk management and internal control and that the system was operating effectively in all material respects in relation to the financial reporting risks.

Disclosure in respect of any indemnification and insurance of officers and auditors

Pursuant to the Constitution of Goodman, current and former directors and officers of Goodman are entitled to be indemnified. Deeds of Indemnity have been executed by Goodman, consistent with the Constitution, in favour of each Director. The Deed indemnifies each Director to the extent permitted by law for liabilities (other than legal costs) incurred in their capacity as a director of Goodman Limited or a controlled entity and, in respect of legal costs, for liabilities incurred in defending or resisting civil or criminal proceedings.

Goodman has insured to the extent permitted by law, current and former directors and officers of Goodman in respect of liability and legal expenses incurred in their capacity as a director or officer. As it is prohibited under the terms of the contract of insurance, the Directors have not included details of the nature of the liabilities covered or the amount of the premiums paid.

The auditors of Goodman are not indemnified by Goodman or covered in any way by this insurance in respect of the audit.

Non-audit services

During the financial year, KPMG, Goodman and GIT’s auditor, performed certain other services in addition to the audit and review of the financial statements.

The Board has considered the non-audit services provided during the financial year by the auditor and, in accordance with written advice authorised by a resolution of the Audit Committee, resolved that it is satisfied that the provision of those non-audit services during the financial year by the auditor is compatible with, and did not compromise, the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons:

    • All non-audit services were subject to the corporate governance procedures adopted by Goodman and have been reviewed by the Audit Committee to determine they do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the auditor
    • The non-audit services provided do not undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants, as they did not involve reviewing or auditing the auditor’s own work, acting in a management or decision making capacity for Goodman, acting as an advocate for Goodman or jointly sharing risks and rewards.

Details of the amounts paid to the auditor of Goodman and GIT, KPMG and its network firms, for the audit and non-audit services provided during the financial year are set out in note 26 to the consolidated financial statements.

Lead auditor’s independence declaration under section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001

The lead auditor’s independence declaration is set out on page 58 and forms part of this Directors’ report for the financial year.

Goodman Group

Rounding

Goodman and GIT are entities of a kind referred to in ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191. In accordance with that Instrument, amounts in this Directors’ report and the consolidated financial statements have been rounded to the nearest hundred thousand dollars, unless otherwise stated.

Events subsequent to balance date

There has not arisen in the interval between the end of the financial year and the date of this report any item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature likely, in the opinion of the Directors, to affect significantly the operations of Goodman, the results of those operations, or the state of affairs of Goodman, in future financial years.

The Directors’ report is made in accordance with a resolution of the Directors.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

BASIS OF PREPARATION

This section sets out the general basis upon which Goodman and GIT have prepared their financial statements and information that is disclosed to comply with the Australian Accounting Standards, Corporations Act 2001 or Corporations Regulations.

Specific accounting policies can be found in the section to which they relate.

1 Basis of preparation

Goodman Limited and Goodman Industrial Trust are for profit entities domiciled in Australia.

(a) Statement of compliance

These consolidated financial statements are general purpose financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board (AASB) and the Corporations Act 2001. International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) form the basis of Australian Accounting Standards adopted by the AASB. The consolidated financial statements also comply with IFRS.

The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars and were authorised for issue by the Directors on 13 August 2020.

(b) Basis of preparation of the consolidated financial reports

Shares in the Company, units in the Trust and CDIs over shares in GLHK are stapled to one another and are quoted as a single security on the ASX. Australian Accounting Standards require an acquirer to be identified and an in-substance acquisition to be recognised. In relation to the stapling of the Company, the Trust and GLHK, the Company is identified as having acquired control over the assets of the Trust and GLHK. In the consolidated statement of financial position of the Group, equity attributable to the Trust and the CDIs over the shares of GLHK are presented as non-controlling interests.

As permitted by the relief provided in ASIC Instrument 18-0353, these financial statements present both the financial statements and accompanying notes of Goodman and GIT. GLHK, which is incorporated and domiciled in Hong Kong, prepares its financial statements under Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards and the applicable requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance and accordingly the financial statements of GLHK have not been combined and included as adjacent columns in this report. The financial statements of GLHK have been included as an appendix to this report.

The consolidated financial statements are prepared on the historical cost basis, subject to any impairment of assets, except that the following assets and liabilities are stated at fair value:

    • Investment properties
    • Derivative financial instruments
    • Investments in unlisted securities
    • Liabilities for cash settled share based payment arrangements.

In accordance with ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191, amounts in these consolidated financial statements have been rounded to the nearest hundred thousand dollars, unless otherwise stated.

(c) Foreign currency translation

Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the consolidated financial statements of each of the controlled entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (functional currency). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Company’s and the Trust’s functional and presentation currency.

65

Goodman Group

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Basis of preparation (continued) 1 Basis of preparation (continued)

Transactions

Foreign currency transactions are translated to each entity’s functional currency at rates approximating to the foreign exchange rates ruling at the dates of the transactions. Amounts receivable and payable in foreign currencies at the balance date are translated at the rates of exchange ruling on that date. Resulting exchange differences are recognised in the income statement.

Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost are translated at rates of exchange applicable at the date of the initial transaction. Non-monetary items which are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined.

Translation of controlled foreign operations

The assets and liabilities of controlled foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars at foreign exchange rates ruling at the balance date.

Revenue and expenses are translated at weighted average rates for the financial year. Exchange differences arising on translation are taken directly to the foreign currency translation reserve. On cessation of operations in a foreign region, the cumulative exchange differences relating to the operations in that region, that have been included in the foreign currency translation reserve, are reclassified to the income statement.

Exchange differences arising on monetary items that form part of the net investment in a foreign operation are recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve on consolidation.

Exchange rates used

The following exchange rates are the main exchange rates used in translating foreign currency transactions, balances and financial statements to Australian dollars:

(d) Changes in accounting policies

Goodman and GIT have adopted AASB 16 Leases , with a date of initial application of 1 July 2019.

AASB 16 Leases

AASB 16 replaces AASB 117 Leases and other existing guidance on leases. It introduces a single lessee accounting model and requires a lessee to recognise assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value. A lessee is required to recognise a right of use asset representing its right to use the underlying leased asset and a lease liability representing its obligations to make lease payments.

Goodman applied AASB 16 on 1 July 2019 using the modified retrospective approach. Under this approach, the cumulative effect of initially applying this standard is recognised at the date of initial application. Comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under AASB 117.

Certain of GIT’s Partnerships have leasehold investment properties that continue to be held at fair value. As a lessee, GIT does not directly hold any material leases and therefore the new standard will not have a material impact.

66

Goodman Group

Further details of the nature and effect of the changes to previous accounting policies and the transition options applied are set out below:

Accounting policy applicable from 1 July 2019

(i) Definition

AASB 16 defines a lease on the basis of whether a customer controls the use of an identified asset for a period of time, which may be determined by a defined amount of use. Control is conveyed where the customer has both the right to direct the use of the identified asset and to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from that use. Goodman applied the practical expedient to grandfather the definition of a lease on transition. This means that it will apply AASB 16 to all contracts entered into before 1 July 2019 that had been identified as leases in accordance with the old leases accounting standard (AASB 117).

(ii) Lessee accounting

Goodman recognises a right of use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right of use asset is initially measured at cost plus any direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentives received.

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate. After initial recognition, the lease liability is measured at amortised cost and interest expense is calculated using the effective interest method. The lease liability is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, or there is a change arising from the reassessment of whether Goodman will be reasonably certain to exercise an extension or termination option. The new standard will result in the gross up of assets and liabilities where Goodman leases office buildings, motor vehicles, office equipment and development land classified as inventories.

The right of use assets in respect of office buildings, motor vehicles and office equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method over the period of the lease. Ground leases of development land that are classified as inventories are not depreciated but are assessed at each reporting date for impairments to ensure they are recorded at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

(iii) Leasehold investment property

Under AASB 16, Goodman is required to account for all properties on leasehold land as investment properties when these properties are held for the purpose of leasing to produce rental income and/or for capital appreciation. The adoption of AASB 16 does not have a significant impact on the Group’s financial statements as the Group has previously applied AASB 140 Investment Property, to account for all of its leasehold investment properties at fair value. These leasehold investment properties will continue to be carried at fair value.

(iv) Lessor accounting The accounting policies applicable to Goodman as a lessor remain substantially unchanged from those under AASB 17.

(vi) Impact on results for the period

After the initial recognition of right of use assets and lease liabilities at 1 July 2019, Goodman, as a lessee, is required to recognise interest expense on the outstanding balance of the lease liability, and the depreciation of the right of use asset, instead of the previous policy of recognising rental expenses incurred under operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The impact on the consolidated income statement in the current period as a result of this change in policy is not significant compared to the results if AASB 117 had continued to apply.

In the consolidated cash flow statements, Goodman, as a lessee, has classified the principal portion of lease payments within financing activities and the interest portion within operating activities. Under AASB 117, the entire lease payment was classified within operating activities. However, the change does not have a significant impact on the presentation of cash flows.

(e) Australian Accounting Standards issued but not yet effective

The Group has not applied any new standard or interpretation that is not yet effective for the current accounting period. None of the new accounting standards or interpretations is expected to have a significant impact on the future results of the Group.

(f) Critical accounting estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements

The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires estimates and assumptions concerning the application of accounting policies and the future to be made by Goodman. Estimates are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year can be found in the following notes:

    • Note 6 – Property assets
    • Note 14 – Goodwill and intangible assets
    • Note 18 – Financial risk management.

The accounting impacts of revisions to estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.

Measurement of fair values

A number of Goodman’s accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities.

When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, Goodman uses market observable data as far as possible. Fair values are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy and have been defined as follows:

    • Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
    • Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices)
    • Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Further information about the assumptions made in measuring fair values is included in the following notes:

    • Note 6 – Property assets
    • Note 18 – Financial risk management.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

RESULTS FOR THE YEAR

The notes in this section focus on the significant items in the income statement, and include the profit per security, analysis of the results by operating segment and taxation details.

2 Profit before income tax

Gross property income

Gross property income comprises rental income under operating leases (net of incentives provided) and amounts billed to customers for outgoings (e.g. rates, levies, cleaning, security, etc.). Amounts billed to customers for outgoings are a cost recovery for Goodman and are recognised once the expense has been incurred. The expense is included in property expenses.

Rental income under operating leases is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease contract. Where operating lease rental income is recognised relating to fixed increases in rentals in future years, an asset is recognised. This asset is a component of the relevant investment property carrying amount. The cost of lease incentives provided to customers is amortised on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease as a reduction of gross property income.

Management and development income

The revenue from management and development activities is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer. Goodman recognises revenue when it transfers control over a product or service to a customer.

Management income

Fee income derived from investment management and property services is recognised and invoiced progressively as the services are provided. Customers make payments usually either monthly or quarterly in arrears.

Performance related management income generally relates to portfolio performance fee income, which is recognised progressively as the services are provided but only when the income can be reliably measured and is highly probable of not being reversed. These portfolio performance fees are typically dependent on the overall returns of a Partnership relative to an agreed benchmark return, assessed over the life of the Partnership, which can vary from one year to seven years. The returns are impacted by operational factors such as the quality and location of the portfolio, active property management, rental income rates and development activity but can also be significantly affected by changes in global and local economic conditions. Accordingly, portfolio performance fee revenue is only recognised towards the end of the relevant assessment period, as prior to this revenue recognition is not considered to be sufficiently certain.

In determining the amount of revenue that can be reliably measured, management prepares a sensitivity analysis to understand the impact of changes in asset valuations on the potential performance fee at the assessment date. The assessment of revenue will depend on the prevailing market conditions at the reporting date relative to long-term averages and also the length of time until the assessment date e.g. the longer the time period to assessment date, the greater the impact of the sensitivity analysis. The potential portfolio performance fee revenue is then recognised based on the length of time from the start of the assessment period to the reporting date as a proportion of the total assessment period. Where the income is attributable to development activities that have occurred over the performance fee period, then it is reported as development income; otherwise, the income is reported as management income. The Partnerships make payments in respect of portfolio performances fees at the end of the performance periods, once the attainment of the conditions has been verified and the amount of the fee has been agreed by all parties.

Development income – disposal of inventories

The disposal of inventories is recognised at the point in time when control over the property asset is transferred to the customer. This will generally occur on transfer of legal title and payment in full by the customer. The gain or loss on disposal of inventories is calculated as the difference between the carrying amount of the asset at the time of disposal and the proceeds on disposal (less transaction costs) and is included in the income statement in the period of disposal.

Development income – development management services

Fee income from development management services (including master-planning, development management and overall project management) is recognised progressively as the services are provided in proportion to the stage of completion by reference to costs. Payments are received in accordance with the achievement of agreed milestones over the development period. The development period can be up to 24 months for larger, more complex projects.

Performance related development income includes income associated with the returns from individual developments under the Group’s management and performance fee income that relates to development activity. Income in respect of individual developments is recognised by Goodman on attainment of the performance related conditions, which is when the income can be reliably measured and is highly probable of not being reversed. These amounts are paid by the Partnership when the amounts have been measured and agreed. Income associated with development activities as part of a portfolio assessment is recognised on the same basis as outlined above in the management income section.

Development income – fixed price development contracts

Certain development activities are assessed as being fixed price development contracts. This occurs when a signed contract exists, either prior to the commencement of or during the development phase, to acquire a development asset from Goodman on completion. Revenue and expenses relating to these development contracts are recognised in the income statement in proportion to the stage of completion of the relevant contracts by reference to costs. The payments may be on completion of the development once legal title has been transferred. The development period can be up to 24 months for larger, more complex projects.

Net gain on disposal of investment properties

The disposal of an investment property is recognised at the point in time when control over the property has been transferred to the purchaser.

Employee expenses

Wages, salaries and annual leave

Wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, and annual leave that are expected to be settled within 12 months of the balance date represent present obligations resulting from employees’ services provided to the balance date. These are calculated at undiscounted amounts based on rates that are expected to be paid as at balance date including related on-costs, such as insurances and payroll tax.

Bonuses

A liability is recognised in other payables and accruals for bonuses where there is a contractual obligation or where there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation. Liabilities for bonuses are measured at the amounts expected to be paid, including related on-costs, when they are settled.

Superannuation

Defined contribution funds

Obligations for contributions to defined contribution funds are recognised as an expense as incurred.

Defined benefit funds

The net obligation in respect of defined benefit funds is recognised in the statement of financial position and is calculated separately for each plan by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in the current and prior periods, discounting that amount and deducting the fair value of any plan assets. The calculation of defined benefit obligations is performed annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method. Remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability, which comprise actuarial gains and losses and the return on plan assets (excluding interest), are recognised immediately in other comprehensive income. Net interest expense and other expenses related to defined benefit plans are recognised in the income statement.

3 Profit per security

Basic profit per security of the Group is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the Securityholders by the weighted average number of securities outstanding during the year. Diluted profit per security is determined by adjusting the profit attributable to the Securityholders and weighted average number of securities outstanding for all dilutive potential securities, which comprise performance rights issued under the LTIP.

Goodman Limited

Under Australian Accounting Standards, the issued units of the Trust and the CDIs over the shares of GLHK are presented as non-controlling interests. As a consequence, the Directors are required to present a profit per share and a diluted profit per share based on Goodman Limited’s consolidated result after tax but excluding the results attributable to the Trust and GLHK.

4 Segment reporting

An operating segment is a component of Goodman that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses. Goodman reports the results and financial position of its operating segments based on the internal reports regularly reviewed by the Group Chief Executive Officer in order to assess each segment’s performance and to allocate resources to them.

Operating segment information is reported on a geographic basis and Goodman has determined that its operating segments are Australia and New Zealand (reported on a combined basis), Asia (Greater China and Japan), Continental Europe (primarily Germany and France), the United Kingdom and the Americas (North America and Brazil).

The activities and services undertaken by the operating segments include:

    • Property investment, including both direct ownership and cornerstone investments in Partnerships
    • Management activities, both fund and property management
    • Development activities, including development of directly owned assets (predominantly disclosed as inventories) and management of development activities for Partnerships.

The segment results that are reported to the Group Chief Executive Officer are based on profit before net finance expense and income tax expense, and also exclude non-cash items such as fair value adjustments and impairments, corporate expenses and incentive based remuneration. The assets allocated to each operating segment primarily include inventories, investment properties and the operating segment’s investments in Partnerships, but exclude inter-entity funding, income tax receivables and corporate assets. The liabilities allocated to each operating segment primarily relate to trade and other payables associated with the operating activities, but exclude interest bearing liabilities, derivative financial instruments, provisions for distributions and corporate liabilities.

The accounting policies used to report segment information are the same as those used to prepare the consolidated financial statements of Goodman and GIT.

For the purpose of operating segment reporting, there are no material intersegment revenues and costs.

Information regarding the operations of each reportable segment is included on the following pages.

Results for the year (continued)

5 Taxation

Income tax for the period comprises current tax and movements in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Current tax and movements in deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised in the income statement except to the extent that they relate to items recognised directly in equity, in which case the relevant amounts of tax are recognised directly in equity.

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the financial year and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous financial years.

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The following temporary differences are not accounted for:

    • Goodwill
    • The initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting nor taxable profit
    • Differences relating to investments in controlled entities to the extent that they will probably not reverse in the foreseeable future.

The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets or liabilities in respect of investment properties held at fair value are calculated on the presumption that the carrying amount of the investment property will be recovered through sale. A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.

Additional income taxes that arise from dividends/distributions are recognised at the same time as the liability to pay the related dividends/distributions.

GIT

Under current Australian income tax legislation, the Trust is not liable for income tax, including capital gains tax, provided that Securityholders are presently entitled to the distributable income of the Trust as calculated for trust law purposes. The controlled entities of the Trust that operate in certain foreign jurisdictions are liable to pay tax in those jurisdictions.

The income tax expense recorded by GIT relates to withholding taxes on actual distributions and deferred taxes on potential future distributions from Partnerships. At 30 June 2020, deferred tax liabilities of $82.3 million (2019: $62.8 million) have been recognised in relation to potential future distributions from Partnerships.

OPERATING ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

The notes in this section focus on Goodman’s property assets, working capital and goodwill and intangible assets.

6 Property assets

(a) Principles and policies

Investment in property assets includes both inventories and investment properties (including those under development), which may be held either directly or through investments in Partnerships (both associates and JVs).

Inventories

Inventories relate to land and property developments that are held for sale or development and sale in the normal course of the Group’s business. Inventories are carried at the lower of cost or net realisable value. The calculation of net realisable value requires estimates and assumptions which are regularly evaluated and are based on historical experience and expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Inventories are classified as non-current assets unless they are contracted to be sold within 12 months of the end of the reporting period, in which case they are classified as current assets.

Investment properties

Investment properties comprise investment interests in land and buildings held for the purpose of leasing to produce rental income and/or for capital appreciation. Investment properties are carried at fair value. The calculation of fair value requires estimates and assumptions which are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Investment properties are not depreciated as they are subject to continual maintenance and regularly revalued on the basis described below. Changes in the fair value of investment properties are recognised directly in the income statement.

Components of investment properties

Land and buildings (including integral plant and equipment) comprising investment properties are regarded as composite assets and are disclosed as such in the consolidated financial report.

Investment property carrying values include the costs of acquiring the assets and subsequent costs of development, including costs of all labour and materials used in construction, costs of managing the projects, holding costs and borrowing costs incurred during the development periods.

Amounts provided to customers as lease incentives and assets relating to fixed rental income increases in operating lease contracts are included within investment property values. Lease incentives are amortised over the term of the lease on a straight-line basis. Direct expenditure associated with leasing a property is also capitalised within investment property values and amortised over the term of the lease.

Classification of investment properties

Investment properties are classified as either properties under development or stabilised properties. Investment properties under development include land, new investment properties in the course of construction and investment properties that are being redeveloped. Stabilised investment properties are all investment properties not classed as being under development and would be completed properties that are leased or are available for lease to customers.

For investment properties under development, the carrying values are reviewed by management at each reporting date to consider whether they reflect the fair value and at completion external valuations are obtained to determine the fair values.

For stabilised investment properties, independent valuations are obtained at least every three years to determine the fair values. At each reporting date between obtaining independent valuations, the carrying values are reviewed by management to ensure they reflect the fair values.

Deposits for investment properties

Deposits and other costs associated with acquiring investment properties that are incurred prior to obtaining legal title are recorded at cost and disclosed as other assets in the statement of financial position.

(c) Estimates and assumptions in determining property carrying values

Inventories

For both inventories held directly and inventories held in Partnerships, external valuations are not performed but instead valuations are determined using the feasibility studies supporting the land and property developments. The end values of the developments in the feasibility studies are based on assumptions such as capitalisation rates, letting up periods and incentives that are consistent with those observed in the relevant market. If the feasibility study calculations indicate that the forecast cost of a completed development will exceed the net realisable value, then the inventories are impaired.

Investment properties

Stabilised investment properties

The fair value of stabilised investment properties is based on current prices in an active market for similar properties in the same location and condition and subject to similar lease and other contracts. The current price is the estimated amount for which a property could be exchanged between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgably, prudently and without compulsion.

82

Goodman Group

Approach to determination of fair value

The approach to determination of fair value of investment properties is applied to both investment properties held directly and investment properties held in Partnerships.

Valuations are determined based on assessments and estimates of uncertain future events, including upturns and downturns in property markets and availability of similar properties, vacancy rates, market rents and capitalisation and discount rates. Recent and relevant sales evidence and other market data are taken into account. Valuations are either based on an external independent valuation or on an internal valuation.

External valuations are undertaken only where market segments were observed to be active. In making the determination of whether a market segment is active, the following characteristics are considered:

    • Function of the asset (distribution/warehouse or suburban office)
    • Location of asset (city, suburb or regional area)
    • Carrying value of the asset (categorised by likely appeal to private (including syndicates), national and institutional investors)
    • Categorisation as primary or secondary based on a combination of location, weighted average lease expiry, quality of tenant covenant (internal assessment based on available market evidence) and age of construction.

Each property asset is assessed and grouped with assets in the same or similar market segments. Information on all relevant recent sales is also analysed using the same criteria to provide a comparative set. Unless three or more sales are observed in an individual market segment (taken together with any comparable market segments as necessary), that market segment is considered inactive.

Where a market segment is observed to be active, then external independent valuations are performed for stabilised investment properties where there has been more than a 25 basis point movement in capitalisation rates and/or there has been a material change in tenancy profile (including changes in the credit rating or financial performance of a significant customer), and/or there has been significant capital expenditure, and/or there has been a change in use (or zoning) of the asset and/or it has been three years since the previous external independent valuation. For all other stabilised investment properties in an active market segment, an internal valuation is performed based on observable capitalisation rates and referenced to independent market data.

Where a market segment is observed to be inactive, then no external independent valuations are performed and internal valuations are undertaken based on discounted cash flow (DCF) calculations. The DCF calculations are prepared over a 10 year period. The key inputs considered for each individual calculation are rental growth rates, discount rates, market rental rates and letting up incentives. Discount rates are computed using the 10 year bond rate or equivalent in each jurisdiction plus increments to reflect country risk, tenant credit risk and industry risk. Where possible, the components of the discount rate are benchmarked to available market data.

Market assessment

The lockdowns and economic impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic commenced at different times, with Asia affected from December 2019 and rest of the world from February/March 2020. The independent valuers would normally calculate fair values using both observable capitalisation rates and discounted cash flows. At the start of the pandemic the independent valuers were concerned that historic market transactional evidence would not be appropriate to use in their assessments of the valuations of the investment properties and certain of their valuations undertaken at March 2020 for the Partnerships placed a greater reliance on the discounted cash flow methodology and most valuation reports included a reference to the material uncertainty that existed in the market at that time.

However, in the last quarter of the financial year, it became clear that asset values in the industrial, logistics and warehousing sector had been less impacted than those for other real asset classes. This was evidenced by market transactions in the three months ended 30 June 2020 that were completed at values consistent with the reported valuations from the independent valuers. Accordingly, at 30 June 2020, the independent valuers have been able to prepare valuations using both observable capitalisation rates and discounted cash flows and relatively few valuation reports included a reference to the uncertainty in the market that was specific to the subject property.

At 30 June 2020, the Board has been able to assess that all markets in which the Group operated were active and as a consequence, no adjustments have been made to the carrying values of the Group’s stabilised investment property portfolios on the basis of internally prepared discounted cash flow valuations.

The overall weighted average capitalisation rates for the divisional portfolios (including Partnerships) are as set out in the table below:

Americas 4.4 4.6 4.4
4.6

During the current financial year, the fair values of 59% (2019: 76%) of stabilised investment properties held directly by Goodman were determined based on a valuation by an independent valuer who held a recognised and relevant professional qualification and had recent experience in the location and category of the investment property being valued. The equivalent percentage for GIT was 42% (2019: 97%).

For investments in Partnerships, all properties that were stabilised investment properties throughout FY20 were valued by an independent valuer during the year.

Sensitivity analysis

The fair value measurement approach for directly held investment properties has been categorised as a Level 3 fair value based on the inputs to the valuation method used (see note 1(f)). The stabilised investment property valuations at 30 June 2020 are most sensitive to the following inputs:

    • Capitalisation rates
    • Market rents
    • Level of lost income due to incentives provided to customers and/or the amount of vacant time on expiry of a lease.

The majority of directly held stabilised investment properties are in Australia and the average capitalisation rate and the range of market rents are summarised in the table below:

Valuation technique Significant unobservable inputs 2020 2019
Income capitalisation Range of net market rents (per square metre per annum) $44 to $320 $40 to $320
Capitalisation rate(weighted average) 5.2% 5.4%

  2. On assumed lease expiries over the next 12 months.

Investment properties under development

External valuations are generally not performed for investment properties under development, but instead valuations are determined using the feasibility studies supporting the developments. The end values of the developments in the feasibility studies are based on assumptions such as capitalisation rates, letting up periods and incentives that are consistent with those observed in the relevant market adjusted for a profit and risk factor. This profit and risk factor is dependent on the function, location, size and current status of the development and is generally in a market range of 10% to 15%. This adjusted end value is then compared to the forecast cost of a completed development to determine whether there is an increase or decrease in value.

This practice of determining fair value by reference to the development feasibility is generally also applied for Goodman’s investments in Partnerships. However, certain Partnerships do obtain independent valuations for investment properties under development each financial year.

(f) Investments accounted for using the equity method

Investments accounted for using the equity method comprise associates and JVs, which are collectively referred to as Partnerships.

Associates

An associate is an entity in which Goodman exercises significant influence but not control over its financial and operating policies. In the consolidated financial statements, investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method. Investments in associates are carried at the lower of the equity accounted amount and recoverable amount. Under this method, Goodman’s share of post-acquisition gains or losses of associates is recognised in the consolidated income statement and its share of post-acquisition movements in reserves is recognised in consolidated reserves. Cumulative post-acquisition movements in both profit or loss and reserves are adjusted against the cost of the investment.

JVs

A JV is an arrangement in which Goodman is considered to have joint control for accounting purposes, whereby Goodman has rights to the net assets of the arrangement, rather than rights to its assets and obligations for its liabilities. In the consolidated financial statements, investments in JVs are accounted for using the equity method. Investments in JVs are carried at the lower of the equity accounted amount and recoverable amount. Goodman’s share of the JVs’ net profit or loss is recognised in the consolidated income statement from the date the arrangement commences to the date the arrangement ceases. Movements in reserves are recognised directly in consolidated reserves.

Transactions eliminated on consolidation

Unrealised gains arising from asset disposals to associates and JVs are eliminated to the extent of Goodman’s interest. Unrealised gains relating to associates and JVs are eliminated against the carrying amount of the investment. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains unless they evidence an impairment of an asset.

7 Receivables

Receivables comprise trade and other receivables and loans to related parties and are recognised on the date that they are originated, initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less any impairment losses.

Receivables are derecognised when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the receivable expire or the Group transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the receivable in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of the receivable are transferred.

The Group’s trade receivables balances make up only a small proportion of the consolidated net assets. The majority of customers have paid and continue to pay rental income in line with agreed leases. Goodman has provided limited shortterm rental assistance for some customers and has assessed the receivables balances at 30 June 2020 for expected credit losses (risk of non-payment). However, the level of provisioning was not significant in the context of the Group’s financial position.

8 Contract balances

Contract assets primarily comprise amounts recoverable from fixed price development contracts (disclosed net of any payments received on account) and accrued performance fee income where the Group assesses that the income can be reliably measured.

Contract liabilities primarily comprise consideration received in advance of the completion of development contracts and rental guarantees.

The following table provides an analysis of receivables from contracts with customers (excluding rental income receivables), contract assets and contract liabilities at the reporting dates:

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Operating assets and liabilities (continued) 8 Contract balances (continued)

Transaction price allocated to the remaining contract obligations

The amount of the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations under Goodman’s existing contracts was $14.3 million. This amount represents revenue expected to be recognised in the future from ongoing management and fixed price development contracts with customers. Goodman will recognise the expected revenue in the future as the work is completed, which is expected to be within the next 12 months.

Details regarding Goodman’s future rental income associated with existing lease agreements is included in note 6.

In addition, Goodman receives investment management, development management and property services fees under various contracts that it has with its Partnerships. These contracts are for varying lengths of time and are typically transacted on terms that are consistent with market practice. The revenues under these contracts are linked to the assets under management, total development project costs or gross property income of Partnerships and are invoiced as the services are provided.

9 Assets held for sale

In March 2020, the Group together with GEP entered into an agreement with a third party to dispose a portfolio of property assets and the Group’s operating platform in the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia. The disposal was completed on 8 July 2020. Accordingly, at 30 June 2020, the directly held assets and liabilities to be disposed have been presented as a disposal group held for sale.

Assets and liabilities of disposal group held for sale

At 30 June 2020, the disposal group was held at the lower of carrying amount, and fair value less costs to sell, and comprised of the following assets and liabilities within the Continental Europe segment:

10 Payables

Trade and other payables are recognised initially at trade date fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, trade and other payables are measured at amortised cost.

Trade and other payables are derecognised when the contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled or expire.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the statement of financial position when, and only when, there is a legal right to offset the amounts and an intention to either settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

14 Goodwill and intangible assets

Goodman recognises both goodwill and indefinite life management rights in its statement of financial position.

Goodwill

Goodwill arising on the acquisition of controlled entities is stated at cost less any accumulated impairment losses (refer below). No amortisation is provided.

Management rights

When fund and/or investment management activities are acquired as part of a business combination, management rights are recorded where they arise from contractual or other legal rights, and the fair value can be measured reliably.

Management rights are stated at cost less impairment. Management rights are not amortised as they are assumed to have an indefinite life given they are routinely renewed at minimal cost and on broadly similar terms.

Impairment

The carrying amounts of goodwill and management rights are tested annually for impairment. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill and management rights are allocated to the related cash-generating units monitored by management. An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying amount of the cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. Recoverable amount is the greater of the fair value (net of disposal costs) and the value in use but given that goodwill and management rights are not frequently traded (i.e. fair value is difficult to ascertain), the recoverable amount will be equal to the value in use of the cash-generating unit. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the cash-generating unit.

Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement. Impairment losses recognised in respect of cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the goodwill allocated to the cash-generating unit, then to the carrying amount of the management rights allocated to the cash-generating unit and then to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the cash-generating unit on a pro rata basis.

An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. An impairment loss for management rights is reversed only to the extent that its carrying amount does not exceed its original cost.

Impairments and reversals of impairments

There were no impairment losses or reversals of impairment losses during either the current or prior financial year.

Impairment testing for intangible assets

The carrying values of both goodwill and indefinite life management rights are assessed for impairment annually. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill and indefinite life management rights are allocated to the Goodman divisions that represent the lowest level within Goodman at which the goodwill and indefinite life management rights are monitored for internal management purposes. Where goodwill and management rights arise in the same division, impairment testing has been performed on the combined intangible asset.

The impairment tests for all intangible assets are based on each division’s value in use. Value in use is determined by discounting the future projected cash flows generated from continuing operations. These cash flows are for a five year period, with a year five terminal value calculated using a terminal growth rate and an appropriate discount rate for each division.

The key drivers of value in respect of the intangible assets are:

    • Development cash flows, which are impacted by development volumes and margins and whether the developments are undertaken directly by Goodman or directly by Partnerships or in joint venture with Partnerships
    • Management cash flows, which are driven by the level of AUM and net property income in Partnerships and, in the case of portfolio performance fee income, the long-term performance of the Partnerships.

The estimation of future cash flows requires assumptions to be made regarding uncertain future events. The cash flows do not assume a downturn in earnings that might arise in the event of a significant adverse change in market conditions for the Group. The cash flows also assume that Goodman’s management contracts with Partnerships have an indefinite life. This is on the basis that in the past these contracts have been typically renewed at minimal cost and on broadly similar financial terms.

When assessing a potential impairment, the value in use is compared against the sum of the intangible asset balance and the plant and equipment balance for each division.

Key assumptions

Continental Europe United Kingdom
Value in use (A$M) 2020 2,341.7 153.6
2019 1,388.1 138.4
Pre-tax discount rate (per annum) 2020 9.4% 8.6%
2019 11.1% 9.5%
Average annual development (million square metres) 2020 0.60 0.16
2019 0.77 0.18
Average annual growth in assets under management (AUM) 2020 3.4% 28.9%
2019 7.9% 39.2%

All amounts were calculated in local currency and translated to Australian dollars at the closing exchange rate at the end of the financial period. Averages related to average amounts over the 5 year forecast period.

Value in use

The increase in the Continental Europe value in use compared to the prior year reflects the strategic focus on high value real estate. Following the disposal of the operations in central and eastern Europe, the Group will concentrate its management and capital resources to activities in Goodman’s core western and southern markets. The scale of the Group’s development projects will continue to grow due to the high value nature of the sites and the complexity associated with development of infill locations. This is expected to result in higher margins, commensurate with the increased scale and complexity of the projects, sustaining development earnings for the long term.

The value in use for the United Kingdom has increased compared to the prior year due to the growth in GUKP over the past 12 months.

Discount rates

The post-tax discount rates were determined using the capital asset pricing model, with individual assumptions referenced to market data, where available, and adjusting for specific factors associated with each division. A risk premium was included in each division’s discount rate, reflecting the level of forecasting, size, country and financing risks for that division. The value in use was determined using the after-tax cash flows and the post-tax discount rates, with the discount rates then converted to the equivalent pre-tax rates.

Developments

Demand for modern, well-located industrial product in both Continental Europe and the United Kingdom remains strong. Earnings forecasts for each division include projects which have not yet been contracted.

Continental Europe

The activities will be focused on core markets in western and southern Europe. The average annual development activity over the next five years is expected to be 0.6 million square metres and the estimated cash outflow from Goodman and Partnerships required to fund the assumed development pipeline across the forecast period is A$0.9 billion per annum.

United Kingdom

The activity will continue to be focused on the core markets close to London and along the M1 corridor. In the short term, developments will include a number of sites that have already been acquired. The division’s development activity over the next five years is forecast to be 0.16 million square metres per annum, on average, which will be undertaken by GUKP, with Goodman earning development management fee income. The estimated cash outflow from Goodman and GUKP required to finance the assumed development pipeline across the forecast period is A$0.32 billion per annum.

Sources of funding for development activity

Capital inflows required to fund acquisitions and development activity in both divisions are assumed to arise from the following sources: equity investment directly into Partnerships (including distribution reinvestment plans) by Goodman and its investment partners (in some cases, the projections assume future equity investment will be greater than existing commitments); lending facilities advanced to Partnerships; debt capital markets; customer-funded turnkey developments; and proceeds from disposals of assets. It is not practicable to determine the percentage of the total which will flow from each source.

Funds available to Goodman and its investment partners are assumed to be sourced from available global markets and are not limited to lending markets in the regions to which the relevant intangible asset relates.

AUM

For Continental Europe, the average annual increase in AUM of 3.4% (2019: 7.9%) over the forecast period is lower than the prior year forecasts due to the disposal of assets in central and eastern Europe. The projected AUM assumes that most of the development over the forecast period is for Partnerships. For the purpose of the value in use assessments, capitalisation rates are expected to be stable over the period and no portfolio performance revenue is assumed.

For United Kingdom, the significant percentage growth in AUM over the period reflects the fact that GUKP is a relatively new Partnership, with AUM forecast to grow from £0.5 billion to approximately £1.6 billion. During FY20, GUKP secured a number of sites that will be developed over the next three years and underpin the projected growth. For the purpose of the forecasts, capitalisation rates are expected to be stable over the period.

Assumptions impacting the terminal year

Assumptions impacting the terminal year

Growth rate applied to future cash flows (per annum) 2020 0.6% 1.0%

2019 0.70 0.18
Development in terminal year (cost in A$B) 2020 0.96 0.36
2019 0.99 0.36

Long-term growth rates have been used to extrapolate cash flow projections beyond the period covered by the five year forecast. For both Continental Europe and United Kingdom, the growth rate was based on the consumer price indices.

The forecast cost of developments in year five represents the estimated total funding requirements for both directly held developments and developments within Partnerships. The cost of developments in Australian dollars has remained relatively stable.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

The notes in this section focus on Goodman and GIT’s financing activities, capital structure and management of the financial risks involved.

15 Net finance (expense)/income

Interest income and expense are recognised using the effective interest rate method.

Finance costs relating to a qualifying asset are capitalised as part of the cost of that asset using a weighted average cost of debt. Qualifying assets are assets which take a substantial time to get ready for their intended use or sale. All other finance costs are expensed using the effective interest rate method.

17 Other financial assets and liabilities

Other financial assets and liabilities primarily comprise derivative financial instruments that are recognised initially on the trade date at which Goodman and GIT become a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Derivative financial instruments and hedging

Goodman and GIT use derivative financial instruments to hedge their economic exposure to foreign exchange and interest rate risks arising from operating, investing and financing activities. In accordance with the Group’s Financial Risk Management policy, Goodman and GIT do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for speculative trading purposes.

Goodman and GIT’s derivative financial instruments are not designated as a hedge for accounting purposes, and accordingly movements in the fair value of derivative financial instruments are recognised in the income statement.

Cash flow hedges

Certain of Goodman and GIT’s associates and JVs continue to designate derivative financial instruments as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes. Goodman’s and GIT’s share of the effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments in associates and JVs that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognised in the cash flow hedge reserve. The gain or loss relating to any ineffective portion is recognised in the income statement.

Capital management (continued)

18 Financial risk management

The Directors have ultimate responsibility for Goodman’s financial risk management (FRM) processes and have established policies, documented in the FRM policy, to manage Goodman’s exposure to financial risks and to utilise capital in an efficient manner.

Goodman’s treasury function is responsible for monitoring the day to day compliance with the Group’s FRM policies and prepares reports for consideration by management committees and the Board including:

    • Cash flow projections over a period of at least 12 months to assess the level of cash and undrawn facilities, and headline gearing at each month end
    • Debt maturity profile, to allow the Group to plan well in advance of maturing facilities
    • Interest rate hedge profile over the next 10 years, to allow the Group to manage the proportion of fixed and floating rate debt in accordance with its FRM policy
    • Capital hedge position (by currency) and profile of expiring currency derivatives, to allow the Group to manage its net investment hedging in accordance with its FRM policy.

Any significant investments or material changes to the finance facilities or FRM policies require approval by the Board.

Capital management

Goodman’s principal capital management objectives are to maintain a strong capital base and provide funds for operating activities (including development expenditure), capital expenditure and investment opportunities as they arise. This is achieved through an appropriate mix of debt and equity.

Goodman is able to alter the capital mix by issuing new Goodman debt and equity securities or hybrid securities, by reinstating the distribution reinvestment plan, by adjusting the timing of development and capital expenditure and by selling assets to reduce borrowings. Goodman also manages capital through its distribution policy in which distributions made to Securityholders are based on the Group’s operating profit, subject to a minimum distribution equal to the taxable income of the Trust.

Goodman’s key financial risks are market risk (including foreign exchange and interest rate risk), liquidity risk and credit risk.

(a) Market risk

Foreign exchange risk

Goodman is exposed to foreign exchange risk through its investments in New Zealand, Hong Kong, China, Japan, Continental Europe, the United Kingdom, North America and Brazil. Foreign exchange risk represents the gain or loss that would be recognised from fluctuations in currency prices against the Australian dollar as a result of Goodman’s net investment in foreign operations, future commercial transactions, and other foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities.

108

Goodman Group

In managing foreign exchange risks, Goodman aims to reduce the impact of short-term fluctuations on Goodman’s earnings and net assets. However, over the long term, permanent changes in foreign exchange rates will have an impact on both earnings and net assets.

Goodman’s capital hedge policy for each overseas region is to hedge between 65% and 90% of foreign currency denominated assets with foreign currency denominated liabilities. This is achieved by borrowing in the same currency as the overseas investments to form a natural economic hedge against any foreign currency fluctuations and/or using derivatives such as cross currency interest rate swaps (CCIRS) and foreign exchange contracts (FEC).

The Group’s hedge position is monitored on an ongoing basis and the Group will enter into new derivatives (including forward start contracts) and close out or enter into contra derivative contracts to manage the capital hedge position.

As at 30 June 2020, the principal that was used to hedge its exposures using derivatives and the weighted average exchange rates, by currency, are set out below:

In addition to the derivatives detailed in the table above, GIT also has a FEC with a controlled entity of GL to hedge that entity’s USD exposure. On maturity of the contract, GIT will receive USD 81.8 million from GL (2019: USD 240.0 million) and pay GBP 53.8 million to GL (2019: GBP 156.2 million).

Sensitivity analysis

Throughout the financial year, if the Australian dollar had been 5% stronger against all other currencies, with all other variables held constant, the profit attributable to Securityholders, excluding derivative mark to market and unrealised foreign exchange movements, would have decreased by A$58.2 million (2019: A$56.0 million decrease) for Goodman and A$22.7 million (2019: A$18.0 million) for GIT. If the Australian dollar had been 5% weaker against all other currencies, with all other variables held constant, the profit attributable to Securityholders, excluding derivative mark to market and unrealised foreign exchange movements, would have increased by A$58.2 million (2019: A$56.0 million increase) for Goodman and A$22.7 million (2019: A$18.0 million) for GIT.

Interest rate risk

Goodman’s interest rate risk arises from variable rate borrowings and the Group’s CCIRS that hedge the overseas investments. Goodman adopts a policy of hedging such that between 60% and 100% of its current year exposure to changes in interest rates on borrowings is on a fixed rate basis. Goodman enters into interest rate derivatives (IRD), comprising both interest rate swaps and interest rate caps, to manage cash flow risks associated with the interest rates on borrowings that are floating. The IRD contracts are for 90 day intervals and involve quarterly payments or receipts of the net amount of interest.

As at 30 June 2020, Goodman and GIT’s fixed and floating interest rate exposure (by principal) based on existing interest bearing liabilities and derivative financial instruments is set out below:

As a result of the fixed rate interest bearing liabilities and derivative financial instruments that existed at 30 June 2020, Goodman and GIT would have the following fixed interest rate exposure (by principal) at the end of each of the next five financial years. This assumes all interest bearing liabilities and derivative financial instruments mature in accordance with current contractual terms.

Sensitivity analysis

Throughout the financial year, if interest rates on borrowings (based on the interest bearing liabilities and derivative financial instruments in place at the end of the year) had been 100 basis points higher/lower, with all other variables held constant, the profit attributable to Securityholders would have increased/decreased by A$0.7 million (2019: decreased/increased by A$0.1 million) for Goodman and decreased/increased by A$2.6 million (2019: increased/decreased by A$1.0 million) for GIT.

Price risk

Goodman and GIT are not materially exposed to price risk.

(b) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that Goodman will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. Goodman’s objective is to maintain sufficient liquidity to fund short-term working capital, capital expenditure, investment opportunities, debt expiries and distributions. This is achieved through the monthly preparation of a three year cash flow forecast to understand the uses of funds and to identify potential shortfalls in funding. This allows Goodman to plan for renewal of debt facilities, negotiation of new debt facilities, new issues of securities, including the distribution reinvestment plan, and other potential sources of funding.

Goodman’s treasury function is responsible for reporting details of all debt maturities to the Board at its regular meetings. Goodman seeks to spread its debt maturities such that the total debt repayable in a single financial year does not exceed Board approved policy levels.

(c) Credit risk

Credit risk represents the loss that would be recognised if counterparties failed to perform as contracted.

The maximum exposure to credit risk on financial assets, excluding investments, which have been recognised on the statement of financial position, is equal to the carrying amount.

Goodman has a policy of assessing the creditworthiness of all potential customers and is not materially exposed to any one customer. Goodman evaluates all customers’ perceived credit risk and may require the lodgement of rental bonds or bank guarantees, as appropriate, to reduce credit risk. In addition, all rents are payable monthly in advance. Bank guarantees are accepted from financial institutions which have an investment grade credit rating from a major rating agency.

Concentration of credit risk may exist due to receivables in respect of the disposals of investment properties. The credit risk is minimised as legal title to the properties is only transferred upon receipt of proceeds and typically Goodman will have either received a cash deposit or be the beneficiary of a bank guarantee for 10% to 20% of the total proceeds.

In relation to material bank deposits, Goodman minimises credit risk by dealing with major financial institutions. The counterparty must have a long-term credit rating that is a minimum of an “A” category (or equivalent) from a major rating agency. The amounts and other terms associated with bank deposits are formally reviewed monthly.

The credit risks associated with derivative financial instruments are managed by:

    • Transacting with multiple derivatives counterparties that have a long-term investment grade credit rating
    • Utilising International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA) agreements with derivative counterparties in order to limit exposure to credit risk through netting of amounts receivable and amounts payable to individual counterparties (refer below)
    • Formally reviewing the mark to market position of derivative financial instruments by counterparty on a monthly basis.

Master netting or similar agreements

Goodman enters into derivative transactions under ISDA master netting off agreements. Under these agreements, where certain credit events occur (such as a default), all outstanding transactions under the agreement are terminated and a single net termination value is payable in full and final settlement.

As Goodman does not have any current legally enforceable right to offset, the fair values associated with derivative financial instruments have been presented gross in the statement of financial position. However, if a credit event occurred, the ISDA master netting off agreement would allow A$294.7 million (2019: A$209.6 million) and A$291.9 million (2019: A$207.2 million) of financial assets and financial liabilities in relation to Goodman’s and GIT’s respective derivative financial instruments to be offset.

Valuation techniques used to derive Level 2 and Level 3 fair values

The Level 2 derivative financial instruments held by Goodman and GIT consist of IRD, CCIRS and FEC.

The fair values of derivative financial instruments are determined using generally accepted pricing models which discount estimated future cash flows based on the terms and maturity of each contract and current market interest rates and/or foreign currency rates, adjusted for specific features of the instruments.

(b) Share based payments

LTIP

The Group’s share based payments primarily relate to performance rights awarded to employees under the LTIP. These performance rights entitle an employee to either acquire Goodman securities for $nil consideration (equity settled performance rights) or, in certain jurisdictions, to receive an amount in cash equal to the value of the securities (cash settled performance rights), subject to the vesting conditions having been satisfied. Further details regarding the vesting conditions are included in the remuneration report section of the Directors’ report.

During the year, the movement in the number of equity settled and cash settled performance rights under the LTIP was as follows:


as follows:
Number of rights
2020 2019
Outstanding at the beginning of the year 79,062,163 75,434,623
Granted 14,435,282 21,486,688
Exercised (17,969,122) (14,925,092)
Forfeited (1,540,678) (2,934,056)
Outstanding at the end of theyear 73,987,645 79,062,163
Exercisable at the end of theyear - -

Share based payments transactions

The fair value of equity settled performance rights at the grant date is expensed with a corresponding increase in the employee compensation reserve over the vesting period. The expense is adjusted to reflect the actual number of performance rights for which the related service and non-market vesting conditions are expected to be met. The accumulated share based payments expense of performance rights which have vested or lapsed is transferred from the employee compensation reserve to retained earnings.

The fair value of cash settled performance rights is also recognised as an expense but with a corresponding increase in liabilities over the vesting period. The expense is adjusted to reflect the actual number of performance rights for which the related service and non-market vesting conditions are expected to be met. The liability is remeasured at each reporting date and at the vesting date based on the fair value of the rights.

The fair value of services received in return for performance rights granted under the LTIP is measured by reference to the fair value of the performance rights granted. The fair value of the performance rights granted during the year was measured as follows:

    • Operating EPS tranche: these rights were valued as a granted call option, using the standard Black Scholes model with a continuous dividend/distribution yield
    • Relative TSR tranche: these rights were valued using a Monte Carlo model which simulated total returns for each of the ASX 100 stocks and discounted the future value of any potential future vesting performance rights to arrive at a present value. The model uses statistical analysis to forecast total returns, based on expected parameters of variance and co-variance.

Goodman Group

The model inputs for performance rights, both equity and cash settled, awarded during the current financial year included the following:

**Rights issued on ** Rights issued on
20 Nov 2019 30 Sep 2019
Fair value at measurement date ($) 11.48 11.26
Security price ($) 14.44 14.18
Exercise price ($) - -
Expected volatility (%) 18.54 18.86
Rights' expected weighted average life (years) 3.8 3.9
Dividend/distribution yield per annum (%) 2.08 2.12
Average risk free rate of interestper annum(%) 0.76 0.75

The amounts recognised as an expense are set out in note 2. At 30 June 2020, a liability of $91.0 million (2019: $87.4 million) was recognised in relation to cash settled performance rights.

Goodman’s New Zealand Long Term Incentive Plan

Under Goodman’s New Zealand Long Term Incentive Plan, employees receive approximately half of their LTI in the form of performance rights over GMT units that vest subject to meeting performance hurdles based on the achievement of distributable earnings targets by GMT and the relative total unitholder return from holding GMT units compared to other NZX property vehicles. On vesting, delivery of units in GMT is made from units held by Goodman or acquired on market.

Key Audit Matters

The Key Audit Matters we identified for the Goodman Group are:

  • Recognition of portfolio performance fee income;

  • Recognition of development income;

  • Valuation of investment properties, investments accounted for using the equity method and inventories; and

  • Value of intangible assets.

Key Audit Matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the Financial Report of the current period.

These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the Financial Report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Recognition of portfolio performance fee income

Refer to Note 2 to the Financial Report (portfolio performance fee income is allocated to management income and development income).

Recognition of portfolio performance fee income Recognition of portfolio performance fee income
Refer to Note 2 to the Financial Report (portfolio performance fee income is allocated to management
income and development income).
The key audit matter How the matter was addressed in our audit
The Goodman Group, in its capacity as an
investment manager, earns portfolio performance
fees based on agreements with some of its
managed partnerships.
Recognition of portfolio performance fee income is
considered a key audit matter due to the:

Quantum of portfolio performance fee income,
relative to the Goodman Group’s total revenue;
and

Significant judgment exercised by us in
assessing the amount of performance fees
recognised by the Goodman Group. The key
assumptions impacting the amount of
performance fees are subject to estimation
uncertainty, bias and inconsistent application.
This increases the risk of inaccurate forecasts
or a wider range of possible outcomes for us
to consider. Increased time and effort is spent
by the audit team in assessing these key
assumptions.
The amount of portfolio performance fees
recognised is impacted by key assumptions
including:

Fair value of underlying investment properties
(a key driver of the quantum of performance
fees recognised by the Goodman Group) held
by the partnerships. The valuation of
investment properties contains assumptions
with estimation uncertainty such as
capitalisation rates, discount rates, rent relief
provided to customers, customer covenant
strength, market rental income, weighted
Our procedures included:

Reading the Goodman Group’s agreements
with managed partnerships to understand
the key terms related to performance fees,
including hurdle rates;

Evaluating Goodman Group’s accounting
policies regarding the recognition of
performance fee income and valuation of
investment properties against accounting
standard requirements;

Comparing hurdle rates and performance
fee rates to underlying partnership
agreements. We recalculated the
performance fee income using the
performance fee rates in the agreements
applied to the value in excess of the hurdle
stipulated in the partnership agreements.
We tested the value in excess of the hurdle
set amount by performing the audit
procedures over investment properties
below. We compared the recalculated
performance fee to the amount recorded by
the Goodman Group; and

Challenging the constraints applied in
determining the amount of performance
fees that are highly probable to be received
by the Goodman Group. We did this by
using our knowledge of the Goodman
Group, their past performance, business,
and our industry experience to challenge
the Goodman Group’s estimate of current
and forecast managed partnership
performance and the remaining tenure of

136

==> picture [118 x 48] intentionally omitted <==

average lease expiry and vacancy levels,
projections of capital expenditure and lease
incentive costs. This leads to additional audit
effort due to the differing assumptions based
on asset classes, geographies and
characteristics of individual investment
properties. This was further heightened with
the existence of the COVID-19 pandemic
resulting in less market transactions which
are ordinarily a strong source of evidence
regarding property fair values.

The level of constraint applied. This is
impacted by the Goodman Group’s
expectations of how much of the
performance fee is highly probable to be
received in accordance with the requirements
of the accounting standards.
In assessing this Key Audit Matter, real estate
valuation specialists, who understand the Group’s
investment profile and business, were involved.

For investment properties, taking into account asset
classes, geographies and characteristics of individual
investment properties:

valuers;

commentary to gain an understanding of
prevailing property market conditions;

included in valuations performed by the
Group’s external valuers by inquiring with
management or the Group’s external

With the assistance of our real estate
valuation specialists, assessing a sample of
significant assumptions including
capitalisation rates, discount rates, rent
relief provided to customers, customer
covenant strength, market rental income,
weighted average lease expiry and vacancy
levels, projections of capital expenditure
and lease incentive costs. We did this by
comparing to market analysis published by
industry experts, recent market
transactions, inquiries with the Goodman
Group, historical performance of the assets
and using our industry experience in the
current COVID-19 economic environment.
Recognition of development income ($882.6m)
Refer to Note 2 to the Financial Report
The key audit matter How the matter was addressed in our audit
Development income was a key audit matter
due to:

its significant value (34% of revenue and
other income);

the high volume of transactions; and

the judgements applied by us to assess the
Goodman Group’s determination of
revenue recognised during the period in
Our procedures included:

remain in progress at period end) based on
quantitative and qualitative information (such as the
size and complexity of the arrangement); and

Evaluating Goodman Group’s recognition of
development income against the criteria in the

137

relation to contracts which remain in
progress at period end.
Development income comprises income from
disposal of inventories, other development
income (including development management
services) and income from fixed price
construction contracts.
Income from development management
services is recognised progressively, requiring
judgment by us when considering the
Goodman Group’s determination of the amount
and extent of the services provided based on
contract deliverables.
Income from certain inventory disposals and
fixed price construction contracts is recognised
in proportion to the stage of completion of the
relevant contracts. We focused on the stage of
completion estimation which is based on costs
incurred as a percentage of estimated total
costs for each contract, which included
consideration of the impact of COVID-19 on
cost and duration of the contract.
accounting standards.
For the specific contracts selected, our procedures
included:

Understanding the underlying contractual
arrangements, in particular their unique terms;

Where recognition of development income is
conditional upon certain events occurring, checking
correspondence with external parties for evidence
of achievement of conditions;

Assessing the Goodman Group’s determination of
revenue recognised during the period in
accordance with the provision of services
stipulated in the underlying contract or the stage of
completion;

For revenue recognised based on the stage of
completion, assessing a sample of costs incurred
to date and total forecast costs against project
feasibilities; and

Challenging the key assumptions included in the
Goodman Group’s project feasibilities by comparing
to commentary published by industry experts,
recent market transactions, and our knowledge of
historical performance of the assets. As part of this
we assessed the impact that COVID-19 has on
actual costs and duration of development projects
and the likely continued impact on key cost and
duration assumptions included in the Goodman
Group’s project feasibilities.

forecast cash flows, growth rates and terminal
growth rates, taking into consideration the
level and margins from ongoing development
activity, forecast funds management income
(which is primarily dependent on assets under
management) and the impact of COVID-19 on
each division. The Group’s models are
sensitive to small changes in these
assumptions, which may reduce available
headroom. This drives additional audit effort
specific to their feasibility and consistency of
application to the Group’s strategy; and

discount rates – these are complicated in
nature and vary according to the conditions the
division is subject to from time to time.
We involved valuation specialists in assessing this
Key Audit Matter.
Our procedures included:

Considering the appropriateness of the value in
use method applied by the Goodman Group to
perform the annual test of goodwill and
management rights impairment, against the
requirements of the accounting standards.

For divisions with significant intangible assets:
-
Working with our valuation specialists,
comparing the discount rates and terminal
growth rates used in the value in use
models to publicly available data of
comparable entities;
-
Assessing the ability of the Goodman Group
to accurately forecast by comparing
previous forecasts to actual results;
-
Comparing the division’s forecast cash
flows contained in the value in use models
to Board approved forecasts;
-
Challenging the divisions forecast cash
flows from development activity and funds
management based on our understanding
of local market conditions, including the
impact of the COVID-19 economic
environment on each division; and
-
Performing a sensitivity analysis on the
discount rates, growth rates and forecast
assets under management by applying a
reasonably possible range of outcomes to
focus our further procedures.

Assessing the disclosures in the financial report
using our understanding from our testing and
against the requirements of the accounting
standards.

Other Information

Other Information is financial and non-financial information in the Goodman Group’s annual reporting which is provided in addition to the Financial Report and the Auditor’s Report. The Directors of the Company and the Directors of the Responsible Entity are responsible for the Other Information.

The Other Information we obtained prior to the date of this Auditor’s Report was the Directors’ Report (including the Remuneration Report). The Chairman’s Letter, Group Chief Executive Officer’s Report, Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability, Corporate Governance and Securities Information are expected to be made available to us after the date of the Auditor's Report.

Our opinion on the Financial Report does not cover the Other Information and, accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion or any form of assurance conclusion thereon, with the exception of the Remuneration Report and our related assurance opinion.

In connection with our audit of the Financial Report, our responsibility is to read the Other Information. In doing so, we consider whether the Other Information is materially inconsistent with the Financial Report or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

We are required to report if we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this Other Information, and based on the work we have performed on the Other Information that we obtained prior to the date of this Auditor’s Report, we have nothing to report.

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report

The Directors of the Company and the Responsible Entity are responsible for:

  • preparing the Financial Report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001;

  • implementing necessary internal control to enable the preparation of a Financial Report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error and

  • assessing the Goodman Group and Trust’s ability to continue as a going concern and whether the use of the going concern basis of accounting is appropriate. This includes disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless they either intend to liquidate the Goodman Group or the Trust or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report

Our objective is:

  • to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Financial Report as a whole is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; and

  • to issue an Auditor’s Report that includes our opinion.

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.

Misstatements can arise from fraud or error. They are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the Financial Report.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audits of the Financial Report is located at the Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website at:

BUSINESS REVIEW

State of affairs

During the year, the Consolidated Entity acquired most of the subsidiaries that comprise Goodman Group’s United Kingdom business (Dollmist Limited and its subsidiaries). Details of the acquisition are set out in note 20 to the consolidated financial statements.

Goodman Group’s strategy

Goodman Group’s purpose is to make space for its stakeholders’ ambitions. This purpose is executed through Goodman Group’s integrated business capabilities model – “own+develop+manage”, where its customer’s need for sustainable solutions and service excellence in high-quality locations, is at the centre.

==> picture [288 x 282] intentionally omitted <==

The business capabilities are supported by five strategic “pillars”:

  1. Quality partnerships – develop and maintain strong relationships with key stakeholders including customers, investment partners, suppliers and employees.

  2. Quality product and service – deliver high-quality product and customer service in key logistics markets globally by actively leveraging Goodman Group’s industrial sector expertise, development and management experience and global operating platform.

  3. Culture and brand – promote Goodman Group’s unique and recognisable brand and maintain Goodman Group’s core values across each operating division to foster a strong and consistent culture. The core values are:

    • Customer + Focus: “Be closer to the customer’s world and their changing needs”
    • Innovative + Dynamic: “Be more creative in our thinking and more creative in our actions”
    • Open + Fair: “Be adaptable and considerate in our dealings inside and outside our business”
    • Performance + Drive: “Do what we say we’ll do and make things happen”
    • Team + Respect: “Recognise the worth in each other and collaborate for better results”.
  4. Operational efficiency – optimise business resources to maximise effectiveness and drive efficiencies.

  5. Capital efficiency – maintain active capital management to facilitate appropriate returns and sustainability of the business.

Report of the directors Business review (continued)

Performance review

The Consolidated Entity has operations in Asia, Continental Europe and the United Kingdom, and its earnings are derived from property investment, development and management activities.

The Board acknowledges the unprecedented times the world is experiencing and the terrible impact COVID-19 is having on people’s lives and livelihoods. The Consolidated Entity’s markets have been affected at various times and to varying degrees, but the Consolidated Entity has adapted to this new operating environment with limited disruption and has continued to grow the business sustainably for the long term. The Consolidated Entity plays an important role in providing both essential infrastructure and making a tangible difference for customers in the cities in which it operates.

The Consolidated Entity has established significant human capital, financial resources and a well located real estate portfolio, to sustain the business through market cycles. This is reflected in the results for FY20 with the Consolidated Entity reporting operating profit of $390.3 million, compared to $328.1 million for the prior year.

In assessing Goodman Group’s underlying performance, the directors consider operating earnings as well as Goodman Group’s statutory profit. Operating earnings is a proxy for ‘cash earnings’ and is not an income measure under Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards. It is defined as profit attributable to Shareholders adjusted for property valuations, impairment losses and other non-cash adjustments or non-recurring items.

Property investment activities

Property investment earnings in FY20 of $54.2 million were up on the prior year and comprised 8% of the total earnings (2019: 7%).

Property investment earnings comprise property income from completed developments held for sale and the Consolidated Entity’s share of the results of property investment joint ventures (referred to by the Consolidated Entity as Partnerships). The key drivers for maintaining or growing the Consolidated Entity’s property investment earnings are increasing the level of assets under management (AUM) (subject also to the Consolidated Entity’s direct and indirect interest), maintaining or increasing occupancy and rental levels within the portfolio, and changes in financing arrangements.

The Consolidated Entity’s property portfolios are concentrated in large, urban centres around the world where demand from customers has put pressure on land use and availability. Customers, including e-commerce, are continuing to invest in order to improve the efficiency of their supply chains and data centre users are looking to expand their operations. During the second half of FY20, as the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the shift in consumer purchasing habits to online shopping, the Consolidated Entity has seen increased demand for both temporary and permanent space from customers in the food, consumer goods and logistics sectors, particularly related to e-commerce operators and those transitioning to online.

Despite the lockdowns and other restrictions that all major economies have experienced in the past few months, there has been relatively limited closure or disruption of the Consolidated Entity’s warehouse facilities and the financial impact on the Consolidated Entity has not been significant in the context of its consolidated results and financial position.

Where the Consolidated Entity’s most vulnerable customers have been impacted by the pandemic, then the Consolidated Entity has worked with them to provide rental assistance. In the majority of cases, assistance has been in the form of rent deferral or lease restructure. To date, the rate of rental delinquency has not had a material impact on the Consolidated Entity.

The Consolidated Entity’s share of investment earnings from its cornerstone holdings in the Partnerships increased by 21.7% to $37.6 million compared to the prior year. This was due to rental income growth from existing properties and the completion of developments both during FY19 and FY20.

During FY20, the Consolidated Entity’s share of property valuations from the stabilised portfolios was $20.0 million. Valuation gains were due to both capitalisation rate compression and the growth in rental income. At 30 June 2020, the weighted average capitalisation rate for the Consolidated Entity’s portfolios was 5.2%, compared to 5.3% at the start of FY20.

Development activities

In FY20, development earnings were $356.6 million, an increase of 28% on the prior year and comprised 57% of total operating earnings (2019: 53%).

Development activity continued to be strong with 28 developments completed during the year and work in progress of $3.1 billion across 21 projects at 30 June 2020. The increase in the Consolidated Entity’s earnings was primarily volume driven.

Development earnings comprise development income (including development management fees) net of expenses, income from sales of properties (primarily inventories but also including disposals of special purpose entities in certain jurisdictions) and the Consolidated Entity’s share of the results of property development Partnerships. Development income includes performance related revenues associated with managing development activity in the Partnerships. The key drivers for the Consolidated Entity’s development earnings are the level of development activity, land and construction prices, property valuations and the continued availability of third party capital to fund development activity.

The majority of inventory disposals and fixed price contract income arose in Europe, as the Partnerships in Continental Europe generally acquire completed developments from the Consolidated Entity. In the Consolidated Entity’s other operating segments, development earnings are a mix of development management income, including performance related income, and transactional activity, including the Consolidated Entity’s share of development profits reported by the Partnerships themselves.

Consistent with Goodman Group’s strategy, development activity has been focused on key urban centres, where customer demand is high and the supply of industrial logistics is restricted. The scale of the projects has been growing over time as a consequence of the high value nature of these sites and the complexity associated with development of infill locations.

Goodman Logistics (HK) Limited

Management activities

Management earnings in FY20 of $219.1 million increased by 2% compared to the prior year and comprised 35% of total operating earnings (2019: 40%). The two main drivers of management earnings were the increase in external AUM and the increasing contribution from portfolio performance fee income.

During FY20, external AUM increased by 6% to $21.5 billion from $20.2 billion as set out below:

$M $M
Management earnings 219.1 215.1
Key metrics 2020 2019
Number of Partnerships 7 7
External AUM($B) 21.5 20.2

Management earnings relates to the revenue from managing the property portfolios and the capital invested in the Partnerships (management income). This includes performance related revenues but excludes earnings from managing development activities in the Partnerships, which are included in development earnings. The key drivers for maintaining or growing management earnings are activity levels, asset performance, and increasing the level of AUM, which can be impacted by property valuations and asset disposals and is also dependent on liquidity including the continued availability of third party capital to fund both development activity and acquisitions across the Consolidated Entity’s Partnerships.

Base management fee income, earned from the overall management of the Partnerships, increased in line with the increase in AUM. This was supplemented by property services income, which increased in line with the gross property income in the Partnerships, and other income such as leasing fees and transactional fees.

Other items

Operating expenses increased mainly due to the growth in development and management activity levels, particularly with the acquisition of the business in the United Kingdom, and to the impact of the increase in the Goodman Group security price on employee incentive payments. Borrowing costs have fallen as a result of lower interest rates and the balance of funding arrangements within the Consolidated Entity. The reduction in tax expense is primarily a function of changes to the origin and nature of revenue arising from management and development activities.

Net assets attributable to Shareholders 1,394.7 1,283.4

The value of cornerstone investments in Partnerships has increased by $49.3 million to $1,276.2 million, principally driven by capital contributions into existing Partnerships. A reconciliation of the current year movement in cornerstone investments in Partnerships is detailed in note 6(e) to the consolidated financial statements. Distributions of income and capital from cornerstone investments in the current year amounted to $187.3 million.

The increase in development holdings by $515.0 million to $1,056.2 million is primarily due to the acquisition of the United Kingdom business and additional expenditure on development projects in Continental Europe, China and the United Kingdom during the year.

Other assets included receivables, other financial assets, contract assets, property, plant and equipment and tax assets (including deferred tax). Other liabilities included trade and other payables, the provision for dividends to Shareholders, fair values of derivative financial instruments that are in a liability position, employee benefits and tax liabilities (including deferred tax). The movement during the year was primarily due to the liability fair values of certain of the derivatives.

Effect of exchange rate fluctuations on cash held (2.0) 9.5
Cashat the beginning ofthe year 212.7 115.5
Cash at the end of theyear 368.2 212.7

The movement in operating and investing cash flows from the comparative year is primarily attributable to the timing of development activities undertaken, both on balance sheet and in Partnerships, compared with the prior year. The higher operating cash inflow from development activities was partly offset by decreased cash flows from management activities.

Investing cash flows primarily relate to investments in the Partnerships to fund development expenditure.

Financing cash flows comprise principally of proceeds of loans from related parties offset by dividends paid in FY20. The higher financing cash outflow in the current financial year was due to the repayment of related party loans using excess operating cash.

Outlook

The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has not had a material financial impact on the Consolidated Entity for FY21, the business conditions for industrial assets are expected to remain favourable. The Consolidated Entity is strategically well placed given its financial and operational strength. An increase in performance is anticipated from each of the Consolidated Entity’s earning streams, subject to there being no material adverse change in market conditions or the occurrence of other unforeseen events.

Further information as to other likely developments in the operations of the Consolidated Entity and the expected results of those operations in future financial years has not been included in this report of the directors because disclosure of the information would be likely to result in unreasonable prejudice to the Consolidated Entity.

Risks

Goodman Group identifies strategic and operational risks for each of its regions as part of its strategy process. The key risks, an assessment of their likelihood of occurrence and consequences and controls that are in place to mitigate the risks are reported to the Goodman Group board annually.

Goodman Group has established formal systems and processes to manage the risks at each stage of its decision making process. This is facilitated by a Goodman Group Investment Committee comprising senior executives, chaired by the Group Chief Executive Officer, which considers all major operational decisions and transactions. The Goodman Group Investment Committee meets on a weekly basis.

The Goodman Group board has separate board committees to review and assess key risks. The Risk and Compliance Committee reviews and monitors a range of material risks in Goodman Group’s risk management systems including, among other risks, market, operational, sustainability, regulation and compliance and information technology. The Goodman Group Audit Committee reviews and monitors financial risk management and tax policies.

Independent Auditor’s Report

To the members of Goodman Logistics (HK) Limited (Incorporated in Hong Kong with limited liability)

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Goodman Logistics (HK) Limited (“the Company”) and its subsidiaries (“the Group”) set out on pages A16 to A60, which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2020, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the consolidated cash flow statement for the year then ended and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group as at 30 June 2020 and of its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (“HKFRSs”) issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“HKICPA”) and have been properly prepared in compliance with the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Hong Kong Standards on Auditing (“HKSAs”) issued by the HKICPA. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the HKICPA’s Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (“the Code”) and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Information other than the consolidated financial statements and auditor’s report thereon

The directors are responsible for the other information which comprises all the information included in the Company’s Report of the directors.

Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the consolidated financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of the directors for the consolidated financial statements

The directors are responsible for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with HKFRSs issued by the HKICPA and the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Independent Auditor’s Report (continued)

To the members of Goodman Logistics (HK) Limited (Incorporated in Hong Kong with limited liability)

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. This report is made solely to you, as a body, in accordance with section 405 of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance, and for no other purpose. We do not assume responsibility towards or accept liability to any other person for the contents of this report.

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with HKSAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with HKSAs, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.

  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors.

  • Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  • Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

(expressed in Australian dollars)

BASIS OF PREPARATION

1 Basis of preparation

(a) Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with all applicable Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (HKFRSs), which collective term includes all applicable individual Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards, Hong Kong Accounting Standards (HKASs) and Interpretations issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (HKICPA) and accounting principles generally accepted in Hong Kong. These financial statements also comply with the applicable requirements of the Hong Kong Companies Ordinance.

(b) Basis of preparation of the consolidated financial statements

The measurement basis used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements is the historical cost basis except for investment properties and other financial assets which are stated at fair value.

As at 30 June 2020, the Consolidated Entity had net current liabilities of $313.3 million. In accordance with the stapling agreement between the Company (GLHK), Goodman Limited (GL) and Goodman Funds Management Limited as responsible entity for Goodman Industrial Trust (GIT), on request, each party (and its subsidiaries) must provide financial support to the other party (and its subsidiaries). The financial support to the other party (and its subsidiaries) may include:

    • Lending money or providing financial accommodation
    • Guaranteeing any loan or other financing facility including providing any security
    • Entering into any covenant, undertaking, restraint, negative pledge on the obtaining of any financial accommodation or the provision of any guarantee or security in connection with any financial accommodation
    • Entering into any joint borrowing or joint financial accommodation and providing any guarantee, security, indemnities and undertakings in connection with the relevant joint borrowing or joint financial accommodation.

A party need not do anything under the above arrangements to the extent that the party considers that it is not in the interests of Goodman Group Securityholders as a whole, or would cause a member of the party’s group to contravene or breach applicable laws or particular finance arrangements.

On the basis of the above, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with HKFRSs requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgements about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

(c) Accounting for acquisitions of non-controlling interests

Acquisitions of non-controlling interests are accounted for as transactions with equity holders in their capacity as equity holders and therefore no gain or loss and no goodwill is recognised as a result of such transactions.

A20

Goodman Logistics (HK) Limited

(d) Foreign currency translation

Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the consolidated financial statements of each of the Company’s subsidiaries are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (functional currency). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is the Company’s functional and presentation currency.

Transactions

Foreign currency transactions are translated to each entity’s functional currency at rates approximating the foreign exchange rates ruling at the dates of the transactions. Amounts receivable and payable in foreign currencies at the reporting date are translated at the rates of exchange ruling on that date. Resulting exchange differences are recognised in profit or loss.

Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured in terms of historical cost are translated at rates of exchange applicable at the date of the initial transaction. Non-monetary items which are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined.

Translation of controlled foreign operations

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars at foreign exchange rates applicable at the reporting date.

Revenue and expenses are translated at weighted average rates for the financial year. Exchange differences arising on translation are taken directly to the foreign currency translation reserve until the disposal or partial disposal of the operations.

Exchange differences arising on monetary items that form part of the net investment in a foreign operation are recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve on consolidation.

(e) Changes in accounting policies

The Consolidated Entity has adopted HKFRS 16 Leases with a date of initial application of 1 July 2019.

HKFRS 16 Leases

HKFRS 16 replaces HKAS 17 Leases and other existing guidance on leases. It introduces a single lessee accounting model and requires a lessee to recognise assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value. A lessee is required to recognise a right of use asset representing its right to use the underlying leased asset and a lease liability representing its obligations to make lease payments.

The Consolidated Entity applied HKFRS 16 on 1 July 2019 using the modified retrospective approach. Under this approach, the cumulative effect of initially applying this standard is recognised at the date of initial application. Comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under HKAS 17.

Further details of the nature and effect of the changes to previous accounting policies and the transition options applied are set out below:

Accounting policy applicable from 1 July 2019

(i) Definition

HKFRS 16 defines a lease on the basis of whether a customer controls the use of an identified asset for a period of time, which may be determined by a defined amount of use. Control is conveyed where the customer has both the right to direct the use of the identified asset and to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from that use.

The Consolidated Entity applied the practical expedient to grandfather the definition of a lease on transition. This means that it will apply HKFRS 16 to all contracts entered into before 1 July 2019 that had been identified as leases in accordance with the old leases accounting standard (HKAS 17).

(ii) Lessee accounting

The Consolidated Entity recognises a right of use asset and a lease liability at the lease commencement date. The right of use asset is initially measured at cost plus any direct costs incurred and an estimate of costs to restore the underlying asset or the site on which it is located, less any lease incentives received. The right of use asset is subsequently depreciated using the straight-line method.

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate. After initial recognition, the lease liability is measured at amortised cost and interest expense is calculated using the effective interest rate method. The lease liability is remeasured when there is a change in future lease payments arising from a change in an index or rate, or there is a change arising from the reassessment of whether the Consolidated Entity will be reasonably certain to exercise an extension or termination option. The new standard will result in the gross up of assets and liabilities where the Consolidated Entity leases office buildings, motor vehicles, office equipment and development land classified as inventories.

The right of use assets in respect of office buildings, motor vehicles and office equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method over the period of the lease. Ground leases of development land that are classified as inventories are not depreciated, but are assessed at each reporting date for impairments to ensure they are recorded at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

(iii) Leasehold investment property

Under HKFRS 16, the Consolidated Entity is required to account for all properties on leasehold land as investment properties when these properties are held for the purpose of leasing to produce rental income and/or for capital appreciation. The adoption of HKFRS 16 does not have a significant impact on the Consolidated Entity’s financial statements as the Consolidated Entity has previously applied HKAS 40 Investment property , to account for all of its leasehold properties that were held for investment purposes at fair value. Consequentially, these leasehold investment properties continue to be carried at fair value.

(iv) Lessor accounting

The accounting policies applicable to the Consolidated Entity as a lessor remain substantially unchanged from those under HKAS 17.

Goodman Logistics (HK) Limited

(v) Transitional impact

The comparative information at 30 June 2019 has not been restated. The following table summarises the impact of the adoption of HKFRS 16 on the Consolidated Entity’s consolidated statement of financial position at 1 July 2019:

Inventories

The adjustment to inventories arises from leasehold land previously classified as operating leases and held for development.

Property, plant and equipment

On the adoption of HKFRS 16, the Consolidated Entity presented the right of use assets associated with the leases of office buildings, motor vehicles and office equipment as property, plant and equipment. In the prior full year financial report, property, plant and equipment was included in other assets in the consolidated statement of financial position.

Lease liabilities

The present value of future lease payments are presented as lease liabilities.

(vi) Impact on results for the period

After the initial recognition of right of use assets and lease liabilities at 1 July 2019, Consolidated Entity, as a lessee, is required to recognise interest expense on the outstanding balance of the lease liability, and the depreciation of the right of use asset, instead of the previous policy of recognising rental expenses incurred under operating leases on a straightline basis over the lease term. The impact on profit or loss in the current period as a result of this change in policy is not significant compared to the results if HKAS 17 continued to apply.

In the consolidated cash flow statement, the Consolidated Entity, as a lessee, has classified the principal portion of lease payments within financing activities and the interest portion within operating activities. Under HKAS 17, the entire lease payment was classified within operating activities. The Consolidated Entity has determined that the change does not have a significant impact on the presentation of cash flows.

(f) Accounting standards issued but not yet effective

The Consolidated Entity has not applied any new standard or interpretation that is not yet effective for the current accounting period. None of the new accounting standards or interpretations is expected to have a significant impact on the future results of the Consolidated Entity.

(g) Critical accounting estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements

The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires estimates and assumptions concerning the application of accounting policies and the future to be made by the Consolidated Entity. Estimates are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year can be found in the following notes:

    • Note 6 – Property assets
    • Note 14 – Financial risk management.

The accounting impacts of revisions to estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised and in any future periods affected.

Measurement of fair values

A number of the Consolidated Entity’s accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities.

When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Consolidated Entity uses market observable data as far as possible. Fair values are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy and have been defined as follows:

    • Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
    • Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices)
    • Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Further information about the assumptions made in measuring fair values is included in the following notes:

    • Note 6 – Property assets
    • Note 14 – Financial risk management.

RESULTS FOR THE YEAR

2 Profit before interest and income tax

Gross property income

Gross property income comprises rental income under operating leases (net of incentives provided) and amounts billed to customers for outgoings (e.g. rates, levies, cleaning, security, etc.). Amounts billed to customers for outgoings are a cost recovery for the Consolidated Entity and are recognised once the expense has been incurred. The expense is included in property expenses.

Rental income under operating leases is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease contract. Where operating lease rental income is recognised relating to fixed increases in rentals in future years, an asset is recognised. This asset is a component of the relevant investment property carrying amount. The cost of lease incentives provided to customers is amortised on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease as a reduction of gross property income.

Management and development income

The revenue from management and development activities is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer. The Consolidated Entity recognises revenue when it transfers control over a product or service to a customer.

Management income

Fee income derived from investment management and property services is recognised and invoiced progressively as the services are provided. Customers make payments usually either monthly or quarterly in arrears.

Performance related management income generally relates to portfolio performance fee income, which is recognised progressively as the services are provided but only when the income can be reliably measured and is highly probable of not being reversed. These portfolio performance fees are typically dependent on the overall returns of a Partnership relative to an agreed benchmark return, assessed over the life of the Partnership, which can vary from one year to seven years. The returns are impacted by operational factors such as the quality and location of the portfolio, active property management, rental income rates and development activity but can also be significantly affected by changes in global and local economic conditions. Accordingly, portfolio performance fee revenue is only recognised towards the end of the relevant assessment period, as prior to this revenue recognition is not considered to be sufficiently certain.

In determining the amount of revenue that can be reliably measured, management prepares a sensitivity analysis to understand the impact of changes in asset valuations on the potential performance fee at the assessment date. The assessment of revenue will depend on the prevailing market conditions at the reporting date relative to long-term averages and also the length of time until the assessment date e.g. the longer the time period to assessment date, the greater the impact of the sensitivity analysis. The potential portfolio performance fee revenue is then recognised based on the length of time from the start of the assessment period to the reporting date as a proportion of the total assessment period. Where the income is attributable to development activities that have occurred over the performance fee period, then it is reported as development income, otherwise the income is reported as management income. The Partnerships make payments in respect of portfolio performances fees at the end of the performance periods, once the attainment of the conditions has been verified and the amount of the fee has been agreed by all parties.

Development income – disposal of inventories

The disposal of inventories is recognised at the point in time when control over the property asset is transferred to the customer. This will generally occur on transfer of legal title and payment in full by the customer. The gain or loss on disposal of inventories is calculated as the difference between the carrying amount of the asset at the time of disposal and the proceeds on disposal (less transaction costs) and is included in profit or loss in the period of disposal.

Development income – development management services

Fee income from development management services (including master-planning, development management and overall project management) is recognised progressively as the services are provided in proportion to the stage of completion by reference to costs. Payments are received in accordance with the achievement of agreed milestones over the development period. The development period can be up to twenty four months for larger and more complex developments.

Performance related development income includes income associated with the returns from individual developments under the Consolidated Entity’s management and performance fee income that relates to development activity. Income in respect of individual developments is recognised by the Consolidated Entity on attainment of the performance related conditions, which is when the income can be reliably measured and is highly probable of not being reversed. These amounts are paid by the Partnership when the amounts have been measured and agreed. Income associated with development activities as part of a portfolio assessment is recognised on the same basis as outlined above in the management income section.

Development income – fixed price development contracts

Certain development activities are assessed as being fixed price development contracts. This occurs when a signed contract exists, either prior to the commencement of or during the development phase, to acquire a development asset from the Consolidated Entity on completion. Revenue and expenses relating to these development contracts are recognised in profit or loss in proportion to the stage of completion of the relevant contracts by reference to costs. The payments may be on completion of the development once legal title has been transferred. The development period can be up to twenty four months for larger and more complex developments.

Net gain on disposal of investment properties

The disposal of an investment property is recognised at the point in time when control over the property has been transferred to the purchaser.

Employee benefits

Wages, salaries and annual leave

Wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, and annual leave that are expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date represent present obligations resulting from employees’ services provided to the reporting date. These are calculated at undiscounted amounts based on rates that are expected to be paid as at the reporting date including related on-costs, such as workers’ compensation insurance and payroll tax.

Bonuses

A liability is recognised in other payables and accruals for bonuses where there is a contractual obligation or where there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation. Liabilities for bonuses that are expected to be settled within 12 months are measured at the amounts expected to be paid, including related on-costs, when they are settled. Liabilities for bonuses, including related on-costs, which are expected to be settled after more than 12 months are discounted to reflect the estimated timing of payments.

Defined contribution retirement plans

Obligations for contributions to defined contribution retirement plans are recognised as an expense as incurred.

3 Segment reporting

An operating segment is a component of the Consolidated Entity that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses. The Consolidated Entity reports the results and financial position of its operating segments based on the internal reports regularly reviewed by the Group Chief Executive Officer in order to assess each segment’s performance and to allocate resources to them.

Operating segment information is reported on a geographic basis and the Consolidated Entity has determined that its operating segments are Asia (which consists of Greater China and Japan), Continental Europe and the United Kingdom.

The activities and services undertaken by the operating segments include:

    • Property investment, comprising the Consolidated Entity’s cornerstone investments in Partnerships
    • Management activities, both fund and property management
    • Development activities, including development of directly owned assets (predominantly disclosed as inventories) and management of development activities for the Consolidated Entity’s Partnerships.

The segment results that are reported to the Group Chief Executive Officer are based on profit before net finance expense and income tax expense, and also exclude non-cash items such as fair value adjustments and impairments, corporate expenses and incentive based remuneration. The assets allocated to each operating segment primarily include inventories, and the operating segment’s investments in Partnerships, but exclude receivables from GL, GIT and their controlled entities, income tax receivables and corporate assets. The liabilities allocated to each operating segment primarily relate to trade and other payables associated with the operating activities, but exclude payables to GL, GIT and their controlled entities, provision for dividends to Shareholders, income tax payables and corporate liabilities.

The accounting policies used to report segment information are the same as those used to prepare the consolidated financial statements for the Consolidated Entity.

For the purpose of operating segment reporting, there are no material intersegment revenues and costs.

Information regarding the operations of each reportable segment is included on the following pages.

4 Income tax expense

Income tax for the period comprises current tax and movements in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Current tax and movements in deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that they relate to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the relevant amounts of tax are recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the period, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities arise from deductible and taxable temporary differences respectively, being the differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets also arise from unused tax losses and unused tax credits. Apart from differences which arise on initial recognition of assets and liabilities, all deferred tax liabilities and all deferred tax assets, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilised, are recognised.

The amount of deferred tax recognised is measured based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.

OPERATING ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

6 Property assets

(a) Types of property assets

Investment in property assets includes both inventories and investment properties (including those under development), which may be held either directly or through investments in Partnerships.

Inventories

Inventories relate to land and property developments that are held for sale or development and sale in the normal course of business. Where property developments are forecast to be completed and sold more than 12 months after the reporting date, then the inventories are classified as non-current.

Work in progress in relation to land subdivision and development projects includes the costs of acquisition, planning, management and development and holding costs such as interest and taxes.

Inventories are carried at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the normal course of business, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses. The calculation of net realisable value requires estimates and assumptions which are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Investment properties

Investment properties comprise investment interests in land and buildings held for the purpose of leasing to produce rental income and/or for capital appreciation. Investment properties are carried at fair value. The calculation of fair value requires estimates and assumptions which are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Investment properties are not depreciated as they are subject to continual maintenance and regularly revalued on the basis described below. Changes in the fair value of investment properties are recognised directly in profit or loss.

Components of investment properties

Land and buildings (including integral plant and equipment) comprising investment properties are regarded as composite assets and are disclosed as such in the consolidated financial statements.

Investment property carrying values include the costs of acquiring the assets and subsequent costs of development, including costs of all labour and materials used in construction, costs of managing the projects, holding costs and borrowing costs incurred during the development periods.

Amounts provided to customers as lease incentives and assets relating to fixed rental income increases in operating lease contracts are included within investment property values. Lease incentives are amortised over the term of the lease on a straight-line basis. Direct expenditure associated with leasing a property is also capitalised within investment property values and amortised over the term of the lease.

Classification of investment properties

Investment properties are classified as either properties under development or stabilised properties. Investment properties under development include land, new investment properties in the course of construction and investment properties that are being redeveloped. Stabilised investment properties are all investment properties not classified as being under development and would be completed properties that are leased or are available for lease to customers.

For investment properties under development, the carrying values are reviewed by management at each reporting date to consider whether they reflect their fair value and at completion external valuations are obtained to determine the fair values.

For stabilised investment properties, independent valuations are obtained at least every three years to determine the fair values. At each reporting date between obtaining independent valuations, the carrying values are reviewed by management to ensure they reflect the fair values.

Deposits for investment properties

Deposits and other costs associated with acquiring investment properties that are incurred prior to obtaining legal title are recorded at cost and disclosed as other assets in the consolidated statement of financial position.

(c) Estimates and assumptions in determining property carrying values

Inventories

For both inventories held directly and inventories held in Partnerships, external valuations are not performed but instead valuations are determined using the feasibility studies supporting the land and property developments. The end values of the developments in the feasibility studies are based on assumptions such as capitalisation rates, letting up periods and incentives that are consistent with those observed in the relevant market. If the feasibility study calculations indicate that the forecast cost of a completed development will exceed the net realisable value, then the inventories are impaired.

Stabilised investment properties

The fair value of stabilised investment properties is based on current prices in an active market for similar properties in the same location and condition and subject to similar lease and other contracts. The current price is the estimated amount for which a property could be exchanged between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgably, prudently and without compulsion.

Approach to determination of fair value

The approach to determination of fair value of investment properties is applied to both investment properties held directly and investment properties held in Partnerships.

Valuations are determined based on assessments and estimates of uncertain future events, including upturns and downturns in property markets and availability of similar properties, vacancy rates, market rents and capitalisation and discount rates. Recent and relevant sales evidence and other market data are taken into account. Valuations are either based on an external, independent valuation or on an internal valuation.

External valuations are undertaken only where market segments were observed to be active. In making the determination of whether a market segment is active, the following characteristics are considered:

    • Function of the asset (distribution/warehouse or suburban office)
    • Location of the asset (city, suburb or regional area)
    • Carrying value of the asset (categorised by likely appeal to private (including syndicates), national and institutional investors)
    • Categorisation as primary or secondary based on a combination of location, weighted average lease expiry, quality of tenant covenant (internal assessment based on available market evidence) and age of construction.

Each property asset is assessed and grouped with assets in the same or similar market segments. Information on all relevant recent sales is also analysed using the same criteria to provide a comparative set. Unless three or more sales are observed in an individual market segment (taken together with any comparable market segments as necessary), that market segment is considered inactive.

A33

Goodman Logistics (HK) Limited

Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Operating assets and liabilities (continued) 6 Property assets (continued)

Where a market segment is observed to be active, then external, independent valuations are performed for stabilised investment properties where there has been more than a 25 basis points (bps) movement in capitalisation rates and/or there has been a material change in tenancy profile and/or there has been significant capital expenditure, and/or there has been a change in use (or zoning) of the asset and/or it has been three years since the previous external, independent valuation. For all other stabilised investment properties in an active market segment, an internal valuation is performed based on observable capitalisation rates and referenced to independent market data.

Where a market segment is observed to be inactive, then no external, independent valuations are performed and internal valuations are undertaken based on discounted cash flow (DCF) calculations. The DCF calculations are prepared over a 10 year period. The key inputs considered for each individual calculation are rental growth rates, discount rates, market rental rates and letting up incentives. Discount rates are computed using the 10 year bond rate or equivalent in each jurisdiction plus increments to reflect country risk, tenant credit risk and industry risk. Where possible, the components of the discount rate are benchmarked to available market data.

Market assessment

The lockdowns and economic impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic commenced at different time, with Asia affected from December 2019 and Europe from February 2020. The independent valuers would normally calculate fair values using both observable capitalisation rates and discounted cash flows. At the start of the pandemic, the independent valuers were concerned that historic market transactional evidence would not be appropriate to use in their assessments of the valuations of the investment properties and certain of their valuations undertaken at March 2020 for the Partnerships placed a greater reliance on the discounted cash flow methodology and most valuation reports included a reference to the material uncertainty that existed in the market at that time.

However, in the last quarter of the financial year, it became clear that asset values in the industrial, logistics and warehousing sectors had been less impacted than those for other real estate asset classes. This was evidenced by market transactions in the three months ended 30 June 2020 that were completed at values consistent with the reported valuations from the independent valuers. Accordingly, at 30 June 2020, the independent valuers have been able to prepare valuations using both observable capitalisation rates and discounted cash flows and relatively few valuation reports included a reference to the uncertainty in the market that was specific to the subject property.

At 30 June 2020, the Board has been able to assess that all markets in which the Consolidated Entity operated were active and as a consequence, no adjustments have been made to the carrying values of the Consolidated Entity’s stabilised investment property portfolios on the basis of internally prepared discounted cash flow valuations.

The overall weighted average capitalisation rates for the divisional portfolios (including Partnerships) are set out in the table below:

Sensitivity analysis

The stabilised investment property valuations are most sensitive to the following inputs:

    • Capitalisation rates
    • Market rents
    • Level of incentives provided to customers and/or the amount of vacant time on expiry of a lease.

The impacts on the Consolidated Entity’s financial position that would arise from the changes in the above assumptions are set out in the table below:

Investment properties under development

External valuations are generally not performed for investment properties under development, but instead valuations are determined using the feasibility studies supporting the developments. The end values of the developments in the feasibility studies are based on assumptions such as capitalisation rates, letting up periods and incentives that are consistent with those observed in the relevant market adjusted for a profit and risk factor. This profit and risk factor is dependent on the function, location, size and current status of the development and is generally in a market range of 10% to 15%. This adjusted end value is then compared to the forecast cost of a completed development to determine whether there is an increase or decrease in value.

This practice of determining fair value by reference to the development feasibility is generally also applied for the Consolidated Entity’s investments in Partnerships. However, certain Partnerships do obtain independent valuations for investment properties under development each financial year.

(e) Investments accounted for using the equity method

Joint ventures

A joint venture (JV) is an arrangement (referred to by the Consolidated Entity as a Partnership) in which the Consolidated Entity is considered to have joint control for accounting purposes, whereby the Consolidated Entity has rights to the net assets of the arrangement, rather than rights to its assets and obligations for its liabilities. In the consolidated financial statements, investments in JVs are accounted for using the equity method. Investments in JVs are carried at the lower of the equity accounted amount and recoverable amount. The Consolidated Entity’s share of the JVs’ net profit or loss is recognised in the consolidated profit or loss from the date the arrangement commences to the date the arrangement ceases. Movements in reserves are recognised directly in the consolidated reserves.

Transactions eliminated on consolidation

Unrealised gains arising from asset disposals with JVs, including those relating to contributions of non-monetary assets on establishment, are eliminated to the extent of the Consolidated Entity’s interest. Unrealised gains relating to JVs are eliminated against the carrying amount of the investment. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, unless they evidence an impairment of an asset.

Notes to the consolidated financial statements Operating assets and liabilities (continued)

7 Receivables

Non-derivative financial assets

The Consolidated Entity initially recognises loans and receivables and deposits on the date that they are originated. All other financial assets are recognised initially on the trade date at which the Consolidated Entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

The Consolidated Entity derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the right to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. Any interest in transferred financial assets that is created or retained by the Consolidated Entity is recognised as a separate asset or liability.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the consolidated statement of financial position when, and only when, the Consolidated Entity has a legal right to offset the amounts and intends to either settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Such assets are recognised initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, loans and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less allowance for impairment of doubtful debts, except where the receivables are interest-free loans made to related parties without any fixed repayment terms or the effect of discounting would be immaterial. In such cases, the receivables are stated at cost less allowance for impairment of doubtful debts.

Loans and receivables comprise trade and other receivables, amounts due from related parties and loans to related parties.

Amounts recoverable on development contracts

Amounts recoverable on development contracts arise when the Consolidated Entity contracts to sell a completed development asset either prior to or during the development phase. The receivables are stated at cost plus profit recognised to date less an allowance for foreseeable losses and less amounts already billed.

Impairment

Non-financial assets

The carrying amounts of the Consolidated Entity’s assets (except inventories, refer to note 6(d); and deferred tax assets, refer to note 4) are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indication exists, the asset is written down to the recoverable amount. The impairment is recognised in profit or loss in the reporting period in which it occurs.

An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss, unless an asset has previously been revalued, in which case the impairment loss is recognised as a reversal to the extent of that previous revaluation, with any excess recognised through profit or loss.

Impairment losses recognised in respect of cash-generating units are allocated to the carrying amount of any identified intangible asset and then to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit (group of units) on a pro rata basis.

Financial assets and contract assets

The Consolidated Entity recognises an impairment loss allowance for expected credit losses (ECLs) on financial assets measured at amortised cost and contract assets. Financial assets measured at amortised cost include cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, amounts and loans due from related parties and other receivables.

Other financial assets measured at fair value are not subject to the ECL assessment.

Measurement of ECLs

ECLs are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the present value of all expected cash shortfalls. In measuring ECLs, the Consolidated Entity takes into account information about past events, current conditions and forecasts of future economic conditions.

Impairment loss allowances for trade receivables, amounts due from related parties, other receivables and contract assets are measured at an amount equal to a lifetime ECL. Lifetime ECLs are losses that are expected to result from all possible default events over the expected lives of the items to which the ECL model applies.

The Consolidated Entity recognises an impairment loss allowance equal to the expected losses within 12 months after the reporting date on loans to related parties, unless there has been a significant increase in credit risk of the loans since initial recognition, in which case the loss allowance is measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs.

The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the fair value of each class of receivable mentioned above. All non-current receivables of the Consolidated Entity are due within five years from the reporting date. There is no material difference between the carrying values and the fair values of receivables.

Trade receivables

No trade receivables were impaired at 30 June 2020 and 2019. There are no significant overdue trade receivables at 30 June 2020.

Other receivables

At 30 June 2020, none of the other receivables balance was overdue or impaired (2019: $nil).

Amounts due from related parties

At 30 June 2020, none of the amounts due from related parties was overdue or impaired (2019: $nil). Amounts due from related parties are typically repayable within 30 days. The amounts due from related parties are unsecured.

Loans to related parties

Loans to related parties principally relate to loans to fellow subsidiaries of GL and GIT and loans to JVs. Refer to note 21(c) for details of loans to related parties. During the year, no impairment losses were recognised on loans to related parties (2019: $nil). The loans to related parties are unsecured.

Transaction price allocated to the remaining contract obligations

The amount of the transaction price allocated to the remaining performance obligations under the Consolidated Entity’s existing contracts is $14.3 million (2019: $21.9 million). This amount represents revenue expected to be recognised in the future from ongoing management and fixed price development contracts with customers. The Consolidated Entity will recognise the expected revenue in the future as the work is completed, which is expected to be within the next 12 months.

In addition, the Consolidated Entity receives investment management, development management and property services fees under various contracts that it has with its Partnerships. These contracts are for varying lengths of time and are typically transacted on terms that are consistent with market practice. The revenues under these contracts are linked to the assets under management, total development project costs or gross property income of the Partnerships and are invoiced as the services are provided.

Non-derivative financial liabilities

The Consolidated Entity initially recognises debt securities issued and subordinated liabilities on the date that they are originated. All other financial liabilities are recognised initially on the trade date at which the Consolidated Entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

The Consolidated Entity derecognises a financial liability when the contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled or expire.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the consolidated statement of financial position when, and only when, the Consolidated Entity has a legal right to offset the amounts and intends to either settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

The Consolidated Entity has classified non-derivative financial liabilities into the other financial liabilities category. Such financial liabilities are recognised initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, these financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

Other financial liabilities comprise trade payables, other payables and accruals and contract and lease liabilities.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

12 Finance income and expense

Finance income

Interest is recognised on an accruals basis using the effective interest rate method, and, if not received at the reporting date, is reflected in the consolidated statement of financial position as a receivable.

Finance expense

Expenditure incurred in obtaining debt finance is offset against the principal amount of the interest bearing liability to which it relates, and is recognised as a finance cost on an effective interest rate basis over the life of the facility or until the facility is significantly modified. Where a facility is significantly modified, any unamortised expenditure in relation to that facility and incremental expenditure incurred in modifying the facility are recognised as a finance cost in the financial year in which the significant modification occurs.

Finance costs relating to a qualifying asset are capitalised as part of the cost of that asset using a weighted average cost of debt. Qualifying assets are assets which take a substantial time to get ready for their intended use or sale. All other finance costs are expensed using the effective interest rate method.

13 Other financial assets and liabilities

Other financial assets and liabilities are recognised initially on the trade date at which the Consolidated Entity become a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Derivative financial instruments and hedging

The Consolidated Entity uses derivative financial instruments to hedge its economic exposure to foreign exchange and interest rate risks arising from operating, investing and financing activities. In accordance with its treasury policy, the Consolidated Entity does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for speculative trading purposes.

The Consolidated Entity’s derivative financial instruments are not designated as a hedge for accounting purposes, and accordingly movements in the fair value of derivative financial instruments are recognised in profit or loss.

Investments in unlisted securities

Subsequent to initial recognition, investments in unlisted securities are measured at fair value and changes therein are recognised as other comprehensive income and presented in the asset revaluation reserve in equity. Dividends are recognised as income in profit or loss unless the dividend clearly represents a recovery of part of the cost of the investment. Other net gains and losses are recognised in other comprehensive income and are never reclassified to profit or loss. When such an asset is derecognised, the cumulative gain or loss in equity is transferred to retained earnings.

14 Financial risk management

The Consolidated Entity’s capital management and financial risk management processes are managed as part of the wider Goodman Group. There are established policies, documented in Goodman Group’s financial risk management (FRM) policy document, to ensure both the efficient use of capital and the appropriate management of the exposure to financial risk.

Goodman Group’s treasury function is responsible for monitoring the day to day compliance with Goodman Group’s FRM policies and prepares reports for consideration by management committees and Goodman Group’s Board including:

    • Cash flow projections over a period of at least 12 months to assess the level of cash and undrawn facilities, and headline gearing at each month end
    • Debt maturity profile, to allow the Goodman Group to plan well in advance of maturing facilities
    • Interest rate hedge profile over the next 10 years, to allow Goodman Group to manage the proportion of fixed and floating rate debt in accordance with its FRM policy
    • Capital hedge position (by currency) and profile of expiring currency derivatives, to allow Goodman Group to manage its net investment hedging in accordance with its FRM policy.

Any significant investments or material changes to the finance facilities or FRM policies require approval by the Goodman Group Board.

The Consolidated Entity’s key financial risks are market risk (including foreign exchange and interest rate risk), liquidity risk and credit risk.

(a) Market risk

Foreign exchange risk

The Consolidated Entity is exposed to transactional foreign currency risk and net investment foreign currency risk through its investments in Hong Kong, Japan, China, Continental Europe and the United Kingdom. Foreign exchange risk represents the loss that would be recognised from adverse fluctuations in currency prices as a result of future commercial transactions, recognised assets and liabilities and, principally, net investments in foreign operations.

Goodman Group manages foreign currency exposure on a consolidated basis. In managing foreign currency risks, Goodman Group aims to reduce the impact of short-term fluctuations on earnings and net assets. However, over the long term, permanent changes in foreign exchange will have an impact on both earnings and net assets.

Goodman Group’s capital hedge policy for each overseas region is to hedge between 65% and 90% of foreign currency denominated assets with foreign currency denominated liabilities. This is achieved by borrowing in the same functional currency as the investments to form a natural economic hedge against any foreign currency fluctuations and/or using derivatives such as cross currency interest rate swaps (CCIRS) and forward exchange contracts (FEC).

The Consolidated Entity has minimal transactional foreign exchange risk as the majority of transactions in each division are in the functional currency of each division.

Goodman Logistics (HK) Limited

As at 30 June 2020, a summary of the derivative financial instruments used to hedge the Consolidated Entity’s exposures arising from its investments in foreign operations is set out below:

Sensitivity analysis

Throughout the financial year, if the Australian dollar had been 5% (2019: 5%) stronger against all other currencies, with all other variables held constant, the Consolidated Entity’s profit attributable to Shareholders, excluding derivative mark to market and unrealised foreign exchange movements, would have decreased by $16.3 million (2019: $31.5 million). If the Australian dollar had been 5% (2019: 5%) weaker against all other currencies, with all other variables held constant, the Consolidated Entity’s profit attributable to Shareholders, excluding derivative mark to market and unrealised foreign exchange movements, would have increased by $16.3 million (2019: $31.5 million).

Interest rate risk

Goodman Group adopts a policy that at all times interest rates on between 60% and 100% of the Group’s external borrowings and derivatives (by principal) are hedged for the next 12 months. The Consolidated Entity’s interest rate risk arises from floating interest rates on related party loans (receivable and payable) and from the floating interest rate legs of certain CCIRS. The Consolidated Entity does not hedge its interest rate exposure on related party loans but has entered into interest rate swaps (IRS) to manage certain cash flow risks associated with floating interest rates on its CCIRS.

As at 30 June 2020, the Consolidated Entity’s fixed and floating rate exposure (by principal) arising from its derivative financial instruments is set out below:

Floatingrate- receivable (803.0) - (803.0)

As a result of the derivative financial instruments that existed at 30 June 2020, the Consolidated Entity would have the following fixed interest rate exposure (by principal) at the end of each of the next five financial years. This assumes all derivative financial instruments mature in accordance with current contractual terms.

Sensitivity analysis

Based on the Consolidated Entity’s interest bearing borrowings at 30 June 2020, if interest rates on borrowings had been 100 bps per annum (2019: 100 bps per annum) higher/lower, with all other variables held constant, the Consolidated Entity’s profit attributable to Shareholders would have been $11.5 million lower/higher (2019: $6.9 million lower/higher).

Price risk

The Consolidated Entity is not exposed to price risk.

(b) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Consolidated Entity will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Consolidated Entity’s objective is to maintain sufficient liquidity to fund short-term working capital, capital expenditure, investment opportunities and dividends. Management seeks to achieve these objectives through the preparation of regular forecast cash flows to understand the application and use of funds and through the identification of future funding, primarily through loans from related parties in Goodman Group.

(c) Credit risk

Credit risk represents the loss that would be recognised if counterparties failed to perform as contracted.

The maximum exposure to credit risk on financial assets, excluding investments, of the Consolidated Entity which have been recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position, is the carrying amount (refer to notes 7 and 17(a)).

The Consolidated Entity has a policy of assessing the creditworthiness of all potential customers and is not materially exposed to any one customer. The Consolidated Entity evaluates all customers’ perceived credit risk.

In relation to material bank deposits, the Consolidated Entity minimises credit risk by dealing with major financial institutions. The counterparty must have a stable, long-term credit rating that is a minimum of an “A” category (or equivalent) from a major rating agency. The amounts and other terms associated with bank deposits are formally reviewed monthly.

From time to time, the Consolidated Entity also makes loans to JVs, typically to fund development projects. In making its investment decisions, the Consolidated Entity will undertake a detailed assessment of the development feasibility and credit risks associated with the relevant counterparties.

During the current and prior year, credit risk arising from cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, amounts and loans due from related parties and other receivables were not determined to be significant and no impairment losses were recognised.

The credit risks associated with derivative financial instruments are managed by:

    • transacting with multiple derivatives counterparties that have a long-term investment grade credit rating;
    • utilising International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA) agreements with derivative counterparties in order to limit exposure to credit risk through netting of amounts receivable and amounts payable to individual counterparties (refer below); and
    • formal review of the mark to market position of derivative financial instruments by counterparty on a monthly basis.

Master netting or similar agreements

Goodman Group enters into derivative transactions under ISDA master netting off agreements. Under these agreements, where certain credit events occur (such as a default), all outstanding transactions under the agreement are terminated and a single net termination value is payable in full and final settlement.

(d) Fair values of financial instruments

Except for derivative financial instruments and investments in unlisted securities which are carried at fair value, the Consolidated Entity’s financial instruments are carried at cost or amortised cost. The carrying amounts of the Consolidated Entity’s financial instruments carried at cost or amortised cost were not materially different from their fair values as at 30 June 2020 and 2019.

(i) Fair value hierarchy

The table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value, by valuation method (see note 1(g)):

(ii) Valuation techniques used to derive Level 2 and Level 3 fair values

The Level 2 derivative financial instruments held by the Consolidated Entity consist of IRS, CCIRS and FEC.

The fair value of derivatives are determined using generally accepted pricing models which discount estimated future cash flows based on the terms and maturity of each contract and current market interest rates and/or foreign currency rates, adjusted for specific features of the instruments.

The fair value measurement for investment in unlisted securities has been categorised as a Level 3 fair value. The following table shows the valuation technique used in measuring fair value as well as the significant unobservable inputs used:

(b) Equity settled share based payment transactions

LTIP

Goodman Group’s share based payments primarily relate to performance rights awarded to employees under the LTIP. These performance rights entitle an employee to either acquire Goodman Group securities for $nil consideration (equity settled performance rights) or, in certain jurisdictions, to receive an amount in cash equal to the value of the securities (cash settled performance rights), subject to the vesting conditions having been satisfied.

During the year, the movement in the number of equity settled and cash settled performance rights under the LTIP was as follows:


as follows:
Number of rights
2020 2019
Outstanding at the beginning of the year 21,300,216 20,633,959
Issued 5,221,335 6,628,500
Transferred from other Goodman Group entities 4,386,501 -
Vested (5,526,953) (3,674,423)
Forfeited (459,663) (2,287,820)
Outstanding at the end of theyear 24,921,436 21,300,216
Exercisable at the end of theyear - -

Share based payments transactions

The fair value of equity settled performance rights at the grant date is expensed with a corresponding increase in the employee compensation reserve over the vesting period. The expense is adjusted to reflect the actual number of performance rights for which the related service and non-market vesting conditions are expected to be met. The accumulated share based payments expense of performance rights which have vested or lapsed is transferred from the employee compensation reserve to retained earnings.

The fair value of cash settled performance rights is also recognised as an expense but with a corresponding increase in liabilities over the vesting period. The expense is adjusted to reflect the actual number of performance rights for which the related service and non-market vesting conditions are expected to be met. The liability is remeasured at each reporting date and at the vesting date based on the fair value of the rights.

A50

Goodman Logistics (HK) Limited

The fair value of services received in return for performance rights granted under the LTIP is measured by reference to the fair value of the performance rights granted. The fair value of the performance rights granted during the year was measured as follows:

    • Operating earnings per security tranche: these rights were valued as a granted call option, using the standard Black Scholes model with a continuous dividend yield
    • Relative total shareholder return tranche: these rights were valued using a Monte Carlo model which simulated total returns for each of the ASX 100 stocks and discounted the future value of any potential future vesting performance rights to arrive at a present value. The model uses statistical analysis to forecast total returns, based on expected parameters of variance and co-variance.

The model inputs for performance rights, both equity and cash settled, awarded during the current financial year included the following:

**Rights issued on ** Rights issued on
20 Nov 2019 30 Sep 2019
Fair value at measurement date ($) 11.48 11.26

20 Investments in subsidiaries

Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. The Company controls an entity when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. When assessing whether the Company has power, only substantive rights (held by the Company and other parties) are considered.

An investment in a subsidiary is consolidated into the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. When an entity ceases to be controlled by the Company, it is accounted for as a disposal of the entire interest in the entity, with a resulting gain or loss being recognised in profit or loss.

In the Company’s statement of financial position, an investment in a subsidiary is stated at cost less impairment losses.

The following list contains only the particulars of subsidiaries which principally affected the results, assets or liabilities of the Consolidated Entity. The class of shares held is ordinary unless otherwise stated.

Combination of entities or businesses under common control

Where the Consolidated Entity acquires entities or businesses from other members of Goodman Group such that all of the combining entities (businesses) are ultimately controlled by Goodman Group Securityholders both before and after the combination, the Consolidated Entity applies the pooling of interests method.

At the date of the combination of entities under common control, the assets and liabilities of the combining entities are reflected at their carrying amounts. No adjustments are made to reflect fair values, or recognise any new assets or liabilities that would otherwise be done under the acquisition method. The only goodwill that is recognised is any existing goodwill relating to either of the combining entities. Any difference between the consideration transferred and the equity “acquired” by the Consolidated Entity is reflected within equity (common control reserve).

Similar to the acquisition method, the results of the “acquired” entity are included only from the date control commenced. Comparatives are not restated to present the consolidated financial statements as if the entities had always been combined.
