Lend Lease Group Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director, Steve McCann said Lend Lease had delivered a strong financial performance for the year underpinned by its development pipeline and the sale of its interest in the Bluewater Shopping Centre.

“In the last five years we have reshaped and refocused our business to deliver on our strategic objectives, including a significant pipeline of urban regeneration projects. We made further progress during the year on the Barangaroo South project in Sydney, with 100% pre sales of the first phase of residential apartments and the launch of the third and largest

commercial tower with recent leasing commitments from PricewaterhouseCoopers and HSBC. We are continuing discussions with other potential tenants for International Towers Sydney,” said Mr McCann.

Other highlights included the financial close of the Public Private Partnership (PPP) component of the Darling Harbour Live project in Sydney. The Group also had a record year of residential activity with 3,425 settlements and total pre sold revenue of circa $2.5 billion.

The Group made strong progress across its London sites. At Elephant & Castle three apartment buildings are under construction and at The International Quarter (TIQ) heads of terms are being negotiated with a major tenant, the Financial Conduct Authority, for the first commercial building and negotiations have commenced with a second major commercial occupier. The TIQ project has also secured 79% pre sales for the first residential release of 333 units.

In Asia, performance fees were earned following the completion of the Jem development. Lend Lease was announced as preferred to work with 1Malaysia Development Berhad on a joint venture agreement to develop the Lifestyle Quarter at Tun Razak Exchange in Kuala Lumpur. In the Americas construction profits continued to improve, driven by Military housing building work and several high rise apartment buildings that reached practical completion during the year.

The Group finished the year with robust global construction backlog revenue of $16.2 billion, with a further $1.8 billion of building and engineering work at preferred status, and a global development pipeline with an estimated end value of $37.7 billion.

“Safety is our number one priority and we strive to maintain the highest levels of safety across all our sites. We are proud of our continued progress in safety, particularly given the significant volumes of delivery currently being undertaken around the world. In the last year we have seen a reduction of 17.4% in our Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate,” said Mr McCann.

Australia

  • Profit after tax decreased to $446.0 million, down 12.0% on the prior year which included initial earnings relating to the first two commercial towers at Barangaroo South;

  • The Development business saw improved residential activity with residential land lot and built-form settlements up 32% and a stable contribution from the retirement business;

  • The Construction business results for the year of $104.3 million were lower than the prior year. The result was impacted by lower revenue, restructure charges of $27.0 million (post-tax), higher bid costs expensed in pursuing major engineering projects still in the pipeline of $18.3 million (post-tax) and an impact from the fire at Barangaroo South in March 2014 of $6.2 million (post-tax);

  • Investment Management profit increased to $110.0 million following the Group’s increased investment, via the Lend Lease Trust, in APPF Commercial and APPF Industrial. The Lend Lease Trust is now fully invested and delivering higher passive income streams for the Group. FUM increased by 6% to $10.9 billion; and

  • Key achievements during the year included securing a development agreement for Batman’s Hill in Melbourne (end development value approximately $1.5 billion). Barangaroo South achieved 100% pre sales for the first phase of residential apartments , increased pre commitments of 77% of commercial floor space in the first two towers and launch of the third and largest commercial tower with pre commitments of 34%. This brings total pre commitments to 61% across all three commercial towers.

Asia

  • Profit after tax decreased to $73.7 million, down 34.5% on the prior year;

  • The Development business benefited from performance fees associated with the delivery of Jem partially offset by origination costs incurred in relation to projects still in the pipeline;

  • Construction profit decreased on the prior year due to a lower contribution from the telecommunications business in Japan. The prior year also included construction profits from the Jem development (now completed); and

  • Investment Management profit of $65.8 million was up materially, reflecting performance fees earned from Lend Lease managed funds for the Jem and Setia City Mall developments.

Europe

  • Profit after tax increased to $446.9 million, up significantly on the prior year reflecting the sale of Lend Lease’s interest in the Bluewater Shopping Centre in June 2014, generating a profit after tax of $485.0 million;

  • Construction recorded a loss of $24.0 million for the year, impacted by difficult market conditions in the region in recent years and the sale of the Spanish construction business; and

  • Key milestones included the acquisition of two new residential projects at Chiswick and Deptford, strong residential pre sales at Elephant & Castle and TIQ in London and launch of the first commercial phase at TIQ.

Americas

  • Profit after tax increased to $78.9 million up 46.9% on the prior year;

  • The Development business recorded a profit on the sale of the Winston-Salem Veterans Affairs Healthcare Center in North Carolina (currently in delivery);

3

==> picture [98 x 36] intentionally omitted <==

  • Infrastructure Development profit remained stable, supported by the Group’s Military Housing Privatization Initiative with the US Department of Defense; and

  • Construction profit increased to $50.9 million due to improved contribution from our Military Housing building work and performance in core markets of New York and Chicago.

Group Financials

At 30 June 2014, Lend Lease held a cash balance of $1,715.8 million and undrawn committed bank facilities of $1,309.6 million, providing substantial financial flexibility.

The average maturity of debt facilities extended to 4.7 years following early refinancing of corporate facilities in December 2013 and interest coverage of 8.1 times (EBITDA plus interest income, divided by interest costs, including capitalised finance costs) is above Group benchmarks.

Commenting on the Group’s financial strength, Group Chief Financial Officer, Tony Lombardo said, “In the last year we have invested significant capital into our development pipeline, with circa 3,000 apartments now under construction across Australia and the UK. The apartments will progressively complete in fiscal years 2015, 2016 and 2017, and are a material contributor to our circa $2.5 billion of pre sold revenue.

“Despite increased investment in the development pipeline operating cash flow was up significantly following the divestment of Lend Lease’s interest in the Bluewater Shopping Centre.

“We also took the opportunity to refinance our corporate cash and bonding facilities in December 2013 and increase the size of our Australian Medium Term Notes in June 2014, providing us with greater tenor, increased liquidity and reduced interest costs,” said Mr Lombardo.

Senior Management Changes

Lend Lease is also pleased to announce some important changes to its senior management team, effective immediately.

  • Dan Labbad, Group Chief Operating Officer and CEO Europe, will become CEO, International Operations and will oversee Europe, Americas and Asia regions. Dan will be based in London following a transition of his responsibilities in Australia;

  • Bob McNamara, CEO Americas, will become the Group Chief Risk Officer, based in Sydney, overseeing Group risk and operational excellence; and

  • Denis Hickey, Chief Operating Officer Americas, will become CEO Americas, based in New York.

“These changes will maximise the opportunity to develop Lend Lease’s key leaders through broadening their exposure across the business as well as strengthening operational excellence and Lend Lease’s ability to grow its offshore earnings base,” said Mr McCann.

Outlook

Mr McCann commented, “The outlook for Lend Lease remains positive. Our strategy is on track and is delivering significant growth for securityholders.

“Forward pre sales in our residential development business and embedded returns in our existing pipeline clearly underpin our earnings visibility over the next three years.

“We remain comfortable with consensus[4] net profit after tax expectation of $604 million to $622 million for FY15,” said Mr McCann.

Further information regarding Lend Lease’s results is set out in the Group’s financial results announcement for the year ended 30 June 2014 and is available on www.lendlease.com
