Goodman’s AGM was held in Sydney on 24 November, covering the formal business of the meeting as well as reviewing the Group’s results and achievements in the 2011 financial year, and its strategic focus and outlook for the year ahead.

Securityholders were updated on Goodman’s business activities in the current financial year, which has resulted in a solid operating performance being delivered in the first quarter.
Leasing results to 30 September were robust, with over 390,000 sqm of industrial and business space leased in all of our markets. This leasing success has contributed net annual rent of $42.9 million across the Group and managed funds. It ensured our occupancy levels and customer retention rates were maintained at a high 96% and 74% respectively, with an overall weighted average lease term of 5.0 years being achieved. The map on the opposite page highlights the leasing activity undertaken on
a regional basis during the first quarter.
In our development business, we continued to experience significant customer demand across all of our markets, with the third party logistics, retail, e-commerce and automotive sectors being the key drivers of growth in our current development work book. This has seen the value of the projects we have underway increase to over $2 billion during the quarter across 47 projects, on behalf of 44 customers in 13 countries around the world.

New development commitments valued at $350 million were secured in the September quarter. In line with our prudent development approach, 89% of these new projects were precommitted and 88% pre-sold, including developments offered to our managed funds. On pages 4 to 7 of this newsletter, we provide an overview of some of these new development projects.
The Chairman also provided an overview of the progress Goodman has made on its sustainability activities, including our community support through the Goodman Foundation.
Japan rebranding
In late September, Goodman successfully rebranded its operating platform in Japan, from J-REP Co. Ltd. (J-REP) to Goodman Japan Limited, following approval by J-REP shareholders at an

Extraordinary Meeting held in Tokyo. Goodman subsequently hosted launch events for customers and staff to mark this important occasion which underscores our broader commitment and growth strategy within the Asian region.
The rebranding provides us with the opportunity to grow our business in the Japanese logistics market given the demand for modern and flexible logistics space, and will enable us to participate in opportunities to add technology, increase efficiency and expand the use of international best practice. Integrating J-REP into the Goodman business will also enable us to use our financial resources and global expertise to serve a wider range of customers looking to expand their business in and outside of Japan.
