Appendix 2: Key risks
----- End of picture text -----
This section discusses some of the key risks associated with an investment in Ingenia. A number of risks and uncertainties may adversely affect the operating and financial performance or position of Ingenia and in turn affect the value of Ingenia securities. These include specific risks associated with an investment in Ingenia and general risks associated with any investment in listed securities. The risks and uncertainties described below are not an exhaustive list of the risks facing Ingenia. Potential investors should consider whether the new securities offered in the Rights Issue are a suitable investment having regard to their own personal investment objectives and financial circumstances and the risks set out below.
General Risks
| General investment risks |
There are risks associated with any stock market investment including: > Securities may trade above or below the Issue Price on ASX; > If Ingenia issues new Securities, an existing Securityholder’s proportional interest in Ingenia may be reduced; > If a Securityholder does not reinvest their distributions while a distribution reinvestment plan is operating, then their interest in Ingenia may be diluted; and > The market price of the Securities may be affected by factors unrelated to the operating performance of the Group such as share market fluctuations and volatility and other factors that affect the market as a whole. |
|---|---|
| Macro-economic risks |
Changes to economic conditions in Australia and internationally, investor sentiment and stock market conditions, changes in fiscal, monetary and regulatory policies such as interest rates and inflation may impact on the performance of Ingenia. |
| Liquidity | Turnover of Ingenia securities can be limited and it may be difficult for investors to buy or sell large lines of stock at market prices. |
| Legislative and regulatory risks |
Changes in laws, regulation and government policy may affect Ingenia’s business and therefore the returns the Group is able to generate. |
| Tax implications | Future changes to the Australian taxation law including changes in interpretation or application of the law by the courts or taxation authorities in Australia may impact taxation treatment of an investment in Ingenia. |
| Litigation | Ingenia may, in the ordinary course of business, be involved in possible litigation disputes (such as environmental and occupational health and safety, industrial disputes and legal claims or third party claims). A material litigation may adversely affect the operational and financial results of the Group. |
p25
S ecific Risks p
| Business strategy risk |
Ingenia’s business strategy is focused on acquisitions across the portfolio and organic growth through increasing current occupancy levels in the rental business, conversion of some rental villages to the DMF model and development. Ingenia’s future growth is dependent upon the successful execution of this strategy. Any change or barrier to implementing this strategy may adversely impact on the Group’s operations and future financial performance. |
|---|---|
| Acquisition risks | Ingenia is well progressed with eight acquisitions that the Group expects to transact in coming months. Ingenia also has a significant acquisition pipeline that it is pursuing to drive future growth of the business. There is no guarantee that Ingenia will be able to complete all current or future acquisitions. |
| Funding risk | Ingenia’s ability to successfully execute its current growth strategy is dependent on the Group’s ability to secure funding at commercial rates, as required. There is no guarantee that Ingenia will be able to secure debt or equity at rates that make such growth strategy attractive, or at all. |
| Development risk | Ingenia has a large land and property development pipeline. Such projects have a number of risks including (but not limited to): delays or issues around planning, application and regulatory approvals; development cost overruns; project delays; issues with building contracts; expected sales prices, or timing of expected sales, or settlements not achieved. |
| Personnel risk | The ability of Ingenia to successfully deliver on its business strategy is dependent on retaining key employees of the Group. The loss of senior management, or other key personnel, could adversely impact on the Group’s business and financial performance. |
| Overseas portfolio | Ingenia continues to re-focus the business on core assets through the sale of its overseas portfolio. Ingenia recently exited from the US Seniors market completely and intends to sell its NZ Students portfolio on completion of refurbishment works in early 2014. There is no guarantee that Ingenia will be able to sell this portfolio on terms favourable to the Group or at all, which could adversely impact on the Group’s valuation. |
| Property valuations | Factors affecting property valuations include capitalisation and discount rates, the economic growth outlook, land resumptions and releases and major infrastructure projects. Such impacts on property valuations lead to variations in the valuation of the Group. |
| Home-owner turnover |
The DMF model requires the new home owners to purchase existing homes in Ingenia’s portfolio on the exit of existing home owners before Ingenia can realise its DMF receipts. This causes the cashflows of the DMF business to be volatile and any reduction to home-owner turnover will delay the collection of cash by Ingenia and, therefore, adversely impact operating cashflow. |

Specific Risks
| Inflation rates | Higher than expected inflation rates could lead to increased development costs and community operating costs. If such increased costs cannot be offset by increased selling prices or rent, this could impact Ingenia’s future financial performance. |
|---|---|
| Rental Assistance | The Social Security Act 1991 (Cth) provides rental assistance for many MHE properties forming part of Ingenia Communities Group. Any change to this legislation could result in a reduction in demand for these products and therefore impact on Ingenia’s business. |
| Asset impairment risk |
Assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Changes to the carrying amounts of assets could have an adverse impact on the reported financial performance of Ingenia. |
| Accounting standards |
Changes to accounting standards may affect the reported earnings of Ingenia from time to time. Any changes to the valuation metrics used by property valuers may adversely impact Ingenia’s reported earnings. |
| Financial leverage | Ingenia currently has bank debt which contains certain covenants in relation to the loan. Any breach to financial covenants could result in the early enforced repayment of debt. Such repayment could incur capital losses if assets need to be sold in a short period, or securityholders may be diluted if equity needs to be raised at large discounts. |
| Increased competition |
Ingenia has done significant work in collating a comprehensive database of MHEs and caravan parks which is used to identify acquisitions. This provides Ingenia with a competitive advantage, however, any competition for targeted acquisitions could impact on its ability to achieve the returns required to transact. Future developments that compete with Ingenia’s existing portfolio could impact on the Group’s current business and financial performance. |
| Distributions | Future distributions and franking levels for Ingenia securities will be determined by the Directors having regard to the operating results, future capital requirements, bank debt covenants and the financial position of Ingenia. There can be no guarantee that Ingenia will continue to pay distributions, or distributions at the current level. |
