Section 1 – Capital management initiatives and Asian restructure
7
Capital management initiatives
-
- In light of significant volatility and dislocation in capital markets, Goodman is pursuing a range of initiatives to strengthen the Group’s balance sheet
Equity raising and DRP – $955m
-
- Fully underwritten equity raising of circa $755m including Macquarie’s consideration for its Asian JV (ex Japan) interests
-
- Goodman will re-activate its DRP from which it expects circa $200m (based on historical take up) for FY09
FY09 asset sale programme – $160m to $500m+
-
- $160m completed since 30 June 2008
-
Office Depot in UK sold to a private investor for $69m (£28.1m) representing a 2% discount to 30 June 2008 book value
-
50% of Goodman’s interests in two Hong Kong development projects for $91m (HK$465m) representing a premium to 30 June 2008 book value
-
- Additional $350m of asset sales expected prior to 31 December 2008
-
Range of transactions across regions generally within 10% of book value
-
Two institutions in negotiations on a $351m UK logistics portfolio – one party has received purchaser investment committee approval
8
Capital management initiatives
Fund co-investments
-
- Continue to sell down fund cornerstone investments to target levels
-
- A number of investors are currently in due diligence across a range of individual funds
Reduced allocation to development
-
- Goodman is setting more rigorous hurdles for development starts given the current dislocation in real estate and credit markets
-
Both on balance sheet and within managed fund platform
-
- Relative to global industrial peers, Goodman’s prudent approach allows the Group to withstand current dislocation
-
Development policy of targeting pre-commitments results in few non-income producing completed assets
-
Majority of development land secured via drawdown arrangements/options (e.g. Brickworks) and hence balance sheet not heavy with development land
-
- Short logistics development start lead times (circa six months) provides greater flexibility in managing capital deployment
9
Asian platform restructure
-
- Goodman is acquiring Macquarie’s interests in the Macquarie Goodman Asia ( MGA ) joint venture (ex Japan) for $200m (HK$1,010m)
-
- Results in one streamlined pan Asian platform (ex Japan), which management views as highly strategic to long-term growth
-
- Goodman to benefit by capturing 100% of the opportunity in the existing markets of Hong Kong and China as well as unidentified future opportunities throughout Asia (ex Japan)
-
- Provides clarity for customers and investors, avoiding confusion with other Macquarie real estate businesses in Asia
-
- Macquarie to maintain investment in, and support of, Japan platform (via investment in J-REP) for the medium-term to stabilise recent growth in the business
10
Asian platform restructure
-
- Total consideration to Macquarie of $200m (HK$1,010m) for its Hong Kong interests and Asian rights (ex Japan)
-
- Macquarie has agreed to use up to 100% of its consideration to apply for Goodman securities via sub underwrite of the equity issue (will be scaled back to the extent securities are taken up by other investors)
-
- Macquarie has agreed to escrow up to $70m of any Goodman securities received for six months
-
- Major portion of consideration supported by recent MGLF-HK capital raising and acquisition valuation
Consideration breakdown
| Component | Consideration | Methodology |
|---|---|---|
| Macquarie’s 25% interest in Interlink and Seaview development projects1 |
A$91m | Reflects acquisition price paid by MGLF-HK – approved by investment committee |
| Macquarie’s units in MGLF-HK (3.9% of total) | A$48m | Reflects MGLF-HK net asset value verified during recent capital raising |
| Management rights associated with MGLF-HK and rest of Asia (ex Japan) |
A$61m | 5x FY09 annualised EBITDA (of Hong Kong only)2 |
| Total | A$200m |
-
Represents residual Macquarie direct interest post sale of 50% of Interlink and Seaview jointly held by Macquarie and Goodman to MGLF-HK as announced on 17 October 2008.
-
31 March 2009 year end.

Section 2 – Goodman Group update
12
Goodman capital position
-
- Announced initiatives significantly enhance Goodman’s capital position
-
Reduces proforma headline gearing from 39.9% to 30.9% (constant currency) and 35.0% post FX movements
-
Identified future asset sales would reduce gearing to 32.6% (post FX movements)
-
Available liquidity of $1.3 billion
-
Interest cover ratio (on base case EBIT) – EBIT/interest expense of 4.1x. EBIT/cash interest paid of 3.1x
-
- Post the initiatives, Goodman has significant headroom in its debt covenants
-
Balance sheet gearing covenant can withstand large movements in cap rates and currency (refer slide 16)
-
Interest cover ratio covenants well covered on rental income and base fee income
-
No look through debt covenants, no market capitalisation based covenant and no net assets covenant
-
Completion of intended asset sales, which are offshore denominated assets, will reduce volatility of gearing generated by currency movements
-
Fund debt facilities are all non-recourse to the Group, no guarantees of fund debt
-
All Goodman senior unsecured debt facilities are on substantially the same terms
-
Covenants on a total asset basis – valuation policy based on long-term expected cash flows so limited impact from short-term fluctuations
-
- Management believes it is prudent to maintain this level of gearing for the Group in the current operating environment
13
Debt facility overview
-
- Capital management initiatives strengthen Goodman’s ability to refinance upcoming expiries
-
$1.3bn of available liquidity post initiatives (pre identified asset sales) enhances Goodman’s ability to meet commitments
-
Goodman can repay CY08 and CY09 expiries from available liquidity if required
-
In addition, management believes it prudent to apply a more conservative approach to capital deployment going forward until capital markets improve (e.g. reduced development capex, identified asset sales)

FY09 earnings
-
- The Group is setting more rigorous hurdles for development starts on balance sheet and within funds given the current dislocation in real estate and credit markets
-
- Assuming only known transactions, rental income and base management fees received for balance of FY09, Goodman’s EPS would be 19.4cps
-
- Key assumptions
-
Post equity raising and identified asset sales
-
No performance fees
-
Setting more rigorous hurdles for development starts on balance sheet and in funds for balance of FY09
-
- Key driver of actual FY09 EPS will be development activity on balance sheet and in funds – all upside
-
- Goodman intends to distribute 19.4cps for FY09
-
Incremental earnings from development activities will be utilised to retire debt
20
FY09 earnings
-
- Base case operating assumptions result in circa $173m reduction in FY09 EBIT estimate
Earnings reconciliation
| Operating EBIT | EPS equivalent | |
|---|---|---|

| Management | 20 – 30% | 20 – 25% |
| Development | 15 – 25% | 7 – 10% |
-
- Earnings upside exists to the extent that Goodman is able to conduct further developments during the balance of FY09
-
An additional $450m of development would result in an incremental circa 1.0c to EPS (based on circa 70% “fee for service” and circa 30% on balance sheet allocation)

Risks
-
- This section discusses some of the key risks associated with an investment in Goodman. Before investing in Goodman, you should consider whether this investment is suitable for you. Potential investors should consider publicly available information on Goodman (such as that available on the websites of Goodman and ASX), carefully consider their personal circumstances and consult their stockbroker, solicitor, accountant or other professional adviser before making an investment decision.
-
- Market price : The market price of Goodman securities will fluctuate due to various factors including general movements in interest rates, the Australian and international investment markets, international economic conditions, global geo-political events and hostilities, investor perceptions and other factors that may affect the Group’s financial performance and position.
-
- Credit ratings: The price of Goodman securities and Goodman’s ability to access debt at a reasonable cost may be affected by a ratings downgrade.
-
- FX movements: The Group has international operations and assets held outside Australia. The Group’s operating results will be affected by fluctuations in exchange rates.
-
- Leverage: The use of leverage may enhance returns and increase the number of assets that can be acquired, but it may also substantially increase the risk of loss. Use of leverage may adversely affect the Group when economic factors such as rising interest rates, severe economic downturns or deterioration in the condition of the market occurs. In the event an investment is unable to generate sufficient cash flow to meet the principal and interest payments on its indebtedness, the value of the Group’s equity component could be significantly reduced or even eliminated.
-
- Interest rates : Adverse fluctuations in interest rates, to the extent that they are not hedged or forecast, may impact the Group’s earnings (before interest) and asset values due to any impact on property markets in which the Group operates.
-
- Taxation implications : You should be aware that future changes in Australian taxation law including changes in interpretation or application of the law by the courts or taxation authorities in Australia, may affect taxation treatment of an investment in Goodman securities, or the holding and disposal of those securities. Further, changes in tax law, or changes in the way tax law is expected to be interpreted, in the various jurisdictions in which the Group operates, may impact the future tax liabilities of the Group.
-
- Realisation of assets : Property assets are by their nature illiquid investments. This may make it difficult to alter the balance of income sources in the Group in the shortterm in response to changes in economic or other conditions.
-
- Capital markets: The real estate investment and development industry tends to be highly capital intensive. The ability of the Group to raise funds on favourable terms for future acquisitions, development activity, new and existing funds managed by the Group and refinancing depends on a number of factors including general economic, political and capital market conditions. The inability of the Group to raise funds on favourable terms for future acquisitions, developments and refinancing could adversely affect its ability to acquire or develop new properties or refinance its debt. In addition, the Group has exposure to capital market risks for those assets which are stock market listed securities. The Group’s operating results will be affected by changes to international stock markets, general economic conditions, the compilation of indices and government policies and regulatory policies applicable to those countries in which the Group holds stock market listed securities.
-
- Cornerstone investments : The net asset value of Goodman’s cornerstone investments in its funds may decrease if the value of the property assets in those funds was to decline.
24
Risks
-
- Employees : The Group is reliant on retaining and attracting quality senior executives and other employees. The loss of the services of any of the Group’s senior management or key personnel, or the inability to attract new qualified personnel, could adversely affect the Group’s operations.
-
- Customers : Insolvency or financial distress of Goodman’s customers may reduce the income received from its assets.
-
- Insurance : Insurance markets may be detrimentally affected by the current global downturn such that insurance becomes more expensive or the financial ability of insurance companies to respond to claims is diminished.
-
- Property market risks : The Group will be subject to the prevailing property market conditions in the countries and sectors in which it operates. Adverse changes in market sentiment or market conditions may impact the Group’s ability to acquire, manage or develop assets, as well as the value of the Group’s properties. These impacts could lead to a reduction in earnings or the carrying value of assets.
-
- Change in value and income of properties : Returns from investment in properties largely depend on the rental generated from the property and the expenses incurred in its operation, including the management and maintenance of the property as well as the changes in the market value of the property. Rental income and/or the market value of properties may be adversely affected by a number of factors, including: (a) the overall conditions in the national and local economy; (b) local real estate conditions; (c) the perception of prospective customers regarding attractiveness and convenience of properties and the intensity of competition with other participants in the real estate industry; (d) the convenience and quality of properties; (e) unforeseen capital expenditure; (f) supply of developable land, new properties and other investment properties; and (g) investor demand/liquidity in investments.
Goodman’s policy is to consider external revaluations of stabilised properties on a six monthly cycle. No assets have been externally revalued since 30 June 2008. Managed funds have differing cycles and certain external revaluations may have been provided up to nine months ago. Under Goodman’s calculation of distributable income available for distribution, the effect of unrealised gains and losses from property revaluations is excluded.
-
- Acquisitions : From time to time the Group will be involved in the acquisition of properties to add to its property portfolio. While it is the Group’s policy to conduct a thorough due diligence process in relation to any such acquisition, risks remain that are inherent in such acquisitions.
-
- Development : The Group is involved in the development of industrial properties. Development risks include changes in construction costs and development timetables.
-
- Regulatory issues and changes in law: The Group is subject to the usual business risk that there may be changes in laws that reduce income or increase costs.
-
- Change in capitalisation rates : The capitalisation rates considered appropriate by independent valuers may change in response to market conditions.
-
- Litigation and disputes : Legal and other disputes (including industrial disputes) may arise from time to time in the ordinary course of operations. Any such dispute may impact on earnings or affect the value of the Group’s assets.
-
- Competition : Competition may lead to an oversupply through overdevelopment or to prices for existing properties or services being inflated via competing bids by prospective purchasers.
