Lendlease Annual Report 2021 3

About this report

The Lendlease Annual Report 2021 has been prepared with reference to the International Integrated Reporting (IR) Framework that encourages businesses to consider what creates value for them and how this value contributes to long term sustainable returns for securityholders.

Materiality

A matter is considered material if senior management and those charged with governance believe it could significantly impact the value created and delivered in the short, medium and long term. We identify and capture material matters through the following processes:

  • Project Control Group (PCG) sessions, which include key internal stakeholders and represent the governance structure for overseeing the completion of the Annual Report

  • Capturing feedback through engagement and research during the financial year from key external stakeholders including investors, analysts, and other relevant groups

  • Engagement with the Board

  • Confirming that the strategy is consistent and relevant with the information collected above.

The outcomes of these processes are the material issues noted on page 32 and 33, and in the section Our Business on pages 12 to 19.

Directors’ Report and Operating and Financial Review (OFR)

The required elements of the Directors’ Report, including the OFR, are featured on pages 4 to 125 of this report and include the sections A Year in Review, Our Business, A Sense of Place, Managing and Measuring Value, Risk and Climate Related Resilience, Performance and Outlook, and Governance.

The OFR is covered specifically on pages 4 to 69. All non financial metrics included in the Directors’ Report on pages 4 to 55 have been verified through our internal verification process. The Remuneration Report on pages 84 to 121 and the Financial Statements on pages 126 to 191 have been audited by KPMG.

4 A sense of place

A Year in Review

The uncertainties and impacts of COVID-19 (COVID) left no person, community or country untouched.

Our results tell a story of a Lendlease impacted by the pandemic, and that of an organisation that continued to make a positive contribution to the lives of people across our regions, and to the planet.

These past 12 months were marked by challenges and opportunities to learn. However, we never lost sight of the very reason we exist – our purpose.

We remained committed to finding the best ways to create value and make a difference. We won new projects, secured new partnerships and delivered work across our pipeline.

We took on some bold missions for the sake of the environment and got well underway to achieving our sustainability targets. We also continued to build our digital capability as we work to be the best in the industry.

We did this with an uncompromised approach to the safety, health and wellbeing of our people and all those who interacted with our places.

Chairman’s Report

These challenging conditions had a negative impact across our core businesses in all regions. We have given specific examples in the Annual Report of how each of Development, Construction and Investments have been impacted. In the context of this environment, it is a testament to both the resilience of the Lendlease business model and the hard work and dedication of our people across the globe that your company achieved solid operational and financial results across its Core business.

As an international real estate group operating in targeted gateway cities globally, the COVID pandemic continued to significantly impact Lendlease during the past year. And many of the cities in which we operate were forced into extended lockdowns or reentered lockdowns.

Health and Safety

The health and safety of our people, our subcontractors and the communities in which we operate continues to be our number one priority. Tragically, two subcontractor fatalities on our sites occurred during the period. This provides a strong reminder of why we have such an unrelenting focus on this most critical aspect of our business. Our sincerest condolences are extended to the family and colleagues of the two men who lost their lives.

The Board oversaw the ongoing review and subsequent refinement to our Global Minimum Requirements (GMRs). Each member of the Board, as well as our people globally, undertook mandatory training to understand how the updated GMRs support the continual improvement of the safety environment at our workplaces.

Financial Result

Lendlease reported a Statutory Profit after Tax of $222 million. This included a loss of $181 million for the Non core segment, driven by additional provisioning relating to claims on historical engineering projects. This disappointing outcome reinforces the decision to exit the engineering sector so Lendlease can focus on areas of competitive strength.

Core operating profit of $377 million was up substantially from $206 million in FY20. Full year distributions of 27 cents per security reflects a pay out ratio of 49 per cent, which is within the Board’s stated target range of 40 to 60 per cent of core operating earnings.

The Group entered FY21 in a strong financial position with a healthy pipeline of work, cash and cash equivalents of $1.7 billion and gearing of 5.0 per cent. The strength of our balance sheet positions Lendlease strongly as we continue to navigate the COVID impacted operating environment.

Executive Leadership Transition

A key priority for the Board this year was the selection of a new Chief Executive Officer to succeed Steve McCann after more than 12 years in the role. Following an extensive internal and external search,

The Board’s focus has been to guide the organisation through a very uncertain operating environment and assist management to advance the Group’s long term strategic objectives.

the Board appointed Tony Lombardo as Global Chief Executive Officer, effective 1 June 2021. Tony has more than 25 years’ global experience working across real estate development, investment management, finance and mergers and acquisitions. This experience, including roles at Lendlease as CEO Asia and Group CFO, make him eminently qualified to lead Lendlease into the future.

During the year, we continued to focus on our program of Board renewal – in particular, identifying a new Non Executive Director with deep skills in our core operating segments.

Sustainability

This year Lendlease launched a global campaign, ‘Mission Zero’ to raise awareness about our ambition to reach Net Zero Carbon by 2025 and Absolute Zero Carbon by 2040. These targets set a global benchmark for our sector and we are making a conscious decision to be a leader in driving industry transformation to limit global warming.

Executive Reward Strategy

In response to investor feedback on our FY20 Executive Reward Strategy (ERS), our planned review of remuneration arrangements was significantly expanded. The focus was to continue to evolve our ERS with the business so that it supports the future success of Lendlease while also meeting the expectations of our investors.

Tony commenced his new role with the mandate to pursue the Group’s strategy of leveraging our competitive advantage in the development and delivery of largescale, mixed-use urbanisation projects and growing the Investments platform.

From a social sustainability perspective, the Group also made meaningful progress to achieve our target of creating $250 million of social value by 2025. We have ‘shared value’ partnerships across all regions, focused on creating measurable social value by addressing the needs of communities.

In FY21, the Board established a working group to thoroughly assess and examine views of securityholders and other external stakeholders. The review also considered market practice, internal perspectives as well as the strategic priorities of the Group. The revisions to our ERS were implemented from 1 July 2021 and incorporated these considerations, including increased transparency of Board decision making.

Steve retired from the Lendlease Board on May 31, 2021 following a 16 year career with the Group. I’d like to take this opportunity to acknowledge his contribution. We’re now recognised as a global leader in transforming major precincts and his unwavering commitment to operating in a safe and sustainable way has left a powerful legacy.

The recent commencement of the Milan Innovation District (MIND) project exemplifies how the Group incorporates environment and social sustainability into key decision making. The project is targeting to be a zero carbon precinct including 100 per cent renewable energy and 95 per cent onsite recycling. The project is also designed to generate social value for the community, exemplified by training and job opportunities for previously incarcerated individuals.

During the period, the Board had oversight of other executive leadership changes. This includes the appointment of new members to our Global Leadership Team, bringing fresh ideas and new perspectives. The Board is confident these appointments, along with a revised organisational structure, set Lendlease up for future success.

The remuneration package for the new CEO has been reduced by 33 per cent for unhurdled remuneration and 21 per cent for total maximum remuneration opportunity compared to the former CEO. Other key amendments include rebalancing the remuneration mix with a higher proportion of remuneration subject to performance hurdles. Features that reflect the long dated nature of the business, that is delivering a significant proportion of remuneration in equity that vests over an extended period, have been retained. Further detail on the Board’s deliberations is provided in the Remuneration Report.

The Board also proudly endorsed the Group’s Reconciliation Action Plan which achieved ‘Elevate’ status, and the 2020 Modern Slavery Statement.

Looking to the Future

Board program

The COVID pandemic has had, and continues to have, significant ramifications for the real estate markets in which the Group operates. As a result, we expect FY22 to be another challenging year for all stakeholders.

The Board program, in addition to its regular cadence of meetings this year, expanded to reflect the broader range of both operational and strategic issues which required oversight.

We are steadfast in our strategy and confident that as global cities recover, the underlying strength of our business will prevail.

The Board continued to maintain its regular cadence of meetings during the year. While some engagement activities were restricted by the pandemic, other parts of the program were able to be maintained through the adoption of technology. This enabled the Board to engage in virtual programs in all four operating regions – including site tours, project reviews, interactive employee roundtables, leadership discussions and engagement with external stakeholders. The Board firmly believes these activities, in addition to our formal meetings, further enhance our understanding of our people, our business and activities and operations within each region.

Notwithstanding the solid operational and financial results across our Core business, the Board recognises the will prevail. need for accountability in FY21 for the further provisions relating to the legacy Engineering business and the potential business review outcomes that have been announced in relation to the Development portfolio that will be considered in FY22. Accordingly, there were appropriate reductions in the FY21 bonus outcomes for accountable Executives, including nil short term award to the former Group CEO. Further, on behalf of the Board, I will be taking a 20 per cent reduction in my Chairman’s fee for the current year. M J Ullmer, AO Chairman

I would like to thank my Board colleagues and the entire Lendlease team for their continued dedication in navigating the challenges of a global pandemic. Throughout much uncertainty, the team has achieved significant milestones that position us to create long term value for securityholders.

Global Chief Executive Officer's Report

during elevator fit out works at the Setia City Mall in Malaysia resulted in a loss of life. We extend our deepest condolences to the loved ones of both men.

My commitment is simple: to create value for all those that interact with us and make a positive contribution to society through the places we create. Our first step is to simplify the business and adopt a more consistent approach across the organisation to provide better transparency. This will help us identify the areas that create the most value, and importantly, those that do not.

I’m honoured to present my first report as Lendlease’s Global CEO. Upon assuming the role, my first task was to listen: to our customers, investors, and our people. Those interactions reinforced my conviction in the fundamental strength and culture of the Group. However, there is more we need to do to unlock our full potential.

For more than 20 years we have transparently reported safety data across any operation where we have a presence around the world, regardless of who has statutory responsibility. Given the nature of recent incidents, we are sharing our learnings and advocating to industry to bring about lasting changes and credible, transparent reporting.

This is the key to creating wealth for our securityholders, who have endured a difficult period.

In 2008, we introduced Global Minimum Requirements (GMRs) to define the Lendlease way for managing health and safety. The application of our GMRs has been reflected in an improved safety performance review across the past decade. But there is no room for complacency. This year, we released the fourth edition of our GMRs which incorporates updated work practices, lessons learned over the last five years, and a specific focus on the mental health and wellbeing of our people.

Health and safety

Getting our people home safely each day remains our highest priority. Tragically, two employees of subcontractors lost their lives on Lendlease projects during the financial year. A partial roof collapse at Curtin University in Perth and an accident

more consistent operating model across all regions. This will facilitate the Group in achieving its strategic objectives and realise significant cost savings.

Core Operating Profit after Tax rose by 83 per cent to $377 million while Earnings per Security rose by 60 per cent to 54.8 cents for a Core Operating Return on Equity of 5.4 per cent. While an improved performance compared with the prior year, the Core business continued to be adversely impacted by COVID.

urbanisation partner of choice and underpins our goal for ongoing strong growth in the Investments platform.

Our gateway cities strategy is simple, the most desirable cities will continue to be the driving force of economic, social and cultural life. We have unique insights into the likely evolution of the urban landscape given our global reach and capabilities.

The review of the development portfolio reaffirmed its underlying strength, supported by a capital efficient business model. However, a small number of projects have been identified where a material change in strategy is under consideration. We expect both the Group’s development production and return targets to be met by FY24.

The Development segment experienced production delays, with ongoing impacts on leasing and sales across some of our active projects. The lockdowns in London affected the performance of our recently completed residential for rent buildings at Elephant Park. Nonetheless, several key initiatives were progressed including an investment partner being secured for the first two residential towers at One Sydney Harbour. These initiatives drove an improvement in Development ROIC to 7.2 per cent, although returns remain below target levels.

Through the places we design, build and manage, we aim to create destinations where people want to be and address urban challenges.

Outlook

Creating value for future generations

FY22 is a reset year for the Group as we face the future with a more streamlined organisation, focus on our core strengths and address COVID impacts that have temporarily challenged the key tenet of our strategy. As a result, we expect core operating returns for both the Development and Investments segments, along with returns for the Group to be below target.

A decade from now the world will be a very different place, with the impacts of climate change even more evident. That’s why the actions we take now have that future very much in mind. The cities in which most of us now live – including our homes, the places we work and where our children go to school – contribute about 40 per cent of global greenhouse gas emissions. This means our industry has a unique opportunity to act.

Construction activity was constrained by delays in the commencement of new projects, site shutdowns and lower productivity. The impact of social distancing protocols across our sites was reflected in a 16 per cent decline in revenue compared to a 9 per cent decline in hours worked. Despite pandemic impacts, we delivered a solid result with the EBITDA margin rising to 2.7 per cent.

Despite this, I am incredibly optimistic about the future of the organisation. We are a great company with placemaking and origination capabilities that are world leading. Our success internationally is testament to our strategy and the depth of talent we have developed and attracted. I believe we will create lasting securityholder wealth while delivering on our commitment of leadership in health, safety and sustainability.

To support our industry leading carbon targets, Lendlease is phasing out diesel and gas and increasing our use of renewable energy. Our Australian Building business has provided carbon neutral construction for three consecutive years and 100 per cent of our construction projects in Chicago are powered using renewable electricity.

The Investments segment generated a return on invested capital of 5.9 per cent, just below the target of 6-9 per cent. Management earnings were resilient, although returns on the Group’s investment portfolio were also impacted by disruption across underlying assets.

We are collaborating with supply chain partners, tenants and residents to achieve absolute zero carbon by 2040.

On a final note, my thanks to our Board, employees, customers, investment partners, securityholders and financiers for supporting Lendlease throughout the year.

While our financial performance was below target levels, we achieved substantial progress on our strategic priorities; a number of new development projects and investment partnerships were secured and a number of strategic divestments completed.

Our refreshed strategy focuses on expanding and upweighting those parts of the Group that have the greatest potential to drive securityholder value.

Strategy

Placemaking is in our DNA. Place is about people's connection to a physical environment and the experiences that trigger both an emotional attachment and a sense of belonging. The unique places we create are carefully designed and curated to meet the needs and aspirations of the people who live, learn, work and play there.

The cornerstone of the Group’s strategy is to create the best urban precincts in key global gateway cities. Our point of difference emanates from our proven expertise in delivering major urbanisation projects through placemaking and our integrated business model, backed by financial strength. This is our competitive edge.

Purpose driven

Our strategy is underpinned by an ethos that long term value creation is maximised by achieving social, environmental and economic outcomes. This involves collaborating with customers, investment partners, governments and the communities within which we operate.

A key differentiator from other industry players is our end to end capability across all aspects of real estate: from concept and planning to design and delivery through to funding and investment management.

A proven track record of more than two decades of creating large scale mixed use urban precincts has enabled the Group to deepen its expertise and sophistication to become in our view, the preeminent urbanisation specialist.

Employ our placemaking expertise and integrated business model in global gateway cities to deliver urbanisation projects and investments that generate social, environmental and economic value.

underpinned by the more than $50 billion of investment grade product that we expect to create from the development pipeline. In addition, we have the appetite and global capability to launch new products alongside our investment partners.

Disciplined origination, accelerated development

The trust placed in us by our customers and partners to evolve the next generation of urban precincts is reflected in our origination success in recent years across targeted international gateway cities. The urbanisation platform has grown substantially to comprise a portfolio of 23 major projects across 10 gateway cities, and our total development pipeline now stands at more than $110 billion. The Group is targeting more than $8 billion of annual completions over the medium term – near double the historical completion rate.

Increased focus

The Group’s human and financial capital is increasingly being directed towards leveraging the Group’s capabilities across urbanisation projects and the Investments platform. Strategic divestments have supported the Group in redirecting these resources. We have exited the Engineering, Services1 and US Telecommunications businesses. Capital allocation to the Retirement Living and Communities businesses has also been reduced.

The growth in the development pipeline, investment in capability to execute at scale and the resilience of the cities in which we have a presence, provides us with confidence in achieving this outcome. However, while the impacts of the pandemic will prevent this in the short term, we expect the target to be reached by FY24.

Resilient and flexible

Our strategy has been designed to be resilient to an evolving market environment. The business model, supported by land management structures across most projects, has the agility to ride out market cycles.

Global mindset

An enterprise wide approach will be critical to achieving safe, sustainable and profitable outcomes as production accelerates.

We understand cities will need to become more affordable, inclusive and sustainable with a greater focus on transport links, security and workplace flexibility. Our placemaking skills are already adapting to these challenges and the associated changes in consumer, corporate and government behaviour.

Our global operating model, supported by products and platforms, provides a framework for implementing best practice consistently, while empowering our teams to lead and innovate. We are investing with the longer term in mind by creating digital capabilities to support our strategic objectives.

Our refreshed strategy focuses on expanding and upweighting our businesses that have the greatest potential to drive securityholder value.

Our partnership approach has driven significant growth in the Investments platform. Future growth will be

We pursue an integrated business model – where two or more of our operating segments of Development, Construction and Investments engage on the same project – to create new mixed use precincts, communities and important civic and social infrastructure.

As an international real estate Group with a presence in targeted gateway cities, the pandemic had a pervasive impact on operations in FY21. For more information refer to the Performance and Outlook section on pages 56 to 69.

Construction

Development

The Development segment is predominantly focused on the creation of mixed use precincts that comprise apartments, workplaces and associated leisure and entertainment amenities. The Group also develops outer suburban masterplanned communities and retirement living villages.

The Construction segment provides project management, design and construction services, predominantly in the commercial, residential, mixed use, defence and social infrastructure sectors.

Capability

Our capability is showcased in the places and structures we create – workplaces for some of the world’s largest organisations and residential apartments, including affordable housing options, hospitals, and other buildings of civic and social importance.

Capability

We manage the entire development process – from securing land, creating masterplans and consulting with communities and authorities through to project management, sales and leasing.

An investment in smart design and advanced manufacturing has improved our safety, sustainability and efficiency, including the ability to simulate all aspects of construction, from design to structural integrity and system performance.

Placemaking is core to our strategy and competitive position. We create places that resonate with communities and contribute to the quality and liveability of our cities by working in partnership with governments, institutions, landowners, investors and the community.

Our Construction segment typically designs and delivers the built form for our urbanisation projects and will be integral for the successful delivery of our $114 billion urbanisation pipeline.

A Sense of Place

Creating the future

We create places where people want to be and be a part of.

The pandemic has raised questions about the future role of our cities, workplaces and homes, and the way we shop, live and interact. People are more discerning about the experiences they want, and we recognise the best places are created when we take a human centric and holistic approach.

We take the time to explore and understand our projects, their history and what will generate continual attraction. We immerse ourselves in our local environments and communities to best understand their cultures, needs and wants. In doing so, we are better able to design, deliver and curate projects that contribute value to the communities they serve.

Sustainable places are in demand by investors and customers alike, reflected in a growing desire for wellness and connection. The line between one’s personal and professional life is blurring. We create places that provide safe havens rich in culture, inclusivity and innovation that support healthier lifestyles and generate social, environmental and economic benefits. MIND and Melbourne Quarter are two such projects. They cater for the varying facets of life’s needs today and into the future with advanced technology, a diverse range of services and integrated experiences for work, living and leisure.

Cities are the future

The benefits of agglomeration are as compelling today as they have ever been. Think London and New York’s finance sectors, Milan’s high end manufacturing and fashion scene and Silicon Valley’s technology smarts.

Resilient cities adapt

Cities are destined to remain the centrepiece of modern society.

To be sustainable and liveable, cities of the future need to provide solutions for numerous challenges. These include: workplace innovation, carbon emissions, climate change adaption, housing affordability, social inclusion and income inequality. To achieve desired outcomes governments, organisations and communities will have to work collaboratively.

They have been the lifeblood of innovation and advancement for millennia. The value to society of people interacting in close proximity has cemented the dominant role that cities play in the global economy.

The extensive social infrastructure and amenities that cities offer make them people magnets. Population density enables the best educational institutions and healthcare facilities as well as cultural attractions such as museums, galleries and theatres. The strong desire for social interaction and experience spurs vibrancy across the retail, tourism and hospitality sectors.

The striking difference during the current pandemic has been the ability for large sections of the labour force to work remotely. The attraction of talent will be key to organisational success, and talent will be attracted to the most liveable cities and desirable workplaces.

Periodic challenges are inevitable

Disease has been the great scourge of city life with terrible death tolls from periodic plagues, influenza and other diseases.

The past year has reinforced the need, desire and benefits of social interaction, collaboration and knowledge sharing. The yearning for experience and human interaction is clearly evident across communities and workplaces as cities reopen and societies recover. In essence, people want to connect with other people and places.

The enforced lockdowns and isolation from the COVID pandemic has thrown the primary purpose of cities – that is, interaction and collaboration – into some disarray. Their very nature is being challenged. COVID is having significant ramifications for the way societies live, work and play. This has been reflected across real estate with workplace

The future is about workplace innovation rather than remote working.

occupancy, retail vacancy and, in some cases, population decline.

Despite these and other challenges, including crime, civil unrest and pollution, cities have rebounded with their growth largely unabated.

==> picture [511 x 204] intentionally omitted <==

As the powerhouse of the modern economy, cities account for more than 80% of global GDP but only 55% of the world's inhabitants.1

This is the future workplace we are planning for, one that is sustainable, agile, connected, inclusive and digitised.

Additional insights into our approach to creating Place include:

Thriving communities across gateway cities

Our gateway cities strategy is founded on the premise that the most desirable cities will continue to be the driving force of economic, social and cultural life. We select cities with the most favourable prospects for long term outperformance. Indicators we monitor to assess and rank the performance of cities include economics and demographics, business climate and capital market metrics, real estate fundamentals and policy and planning frameworks.

Innovation districts and rethinking A greater range of living options are workplaces3 gateway cities. Higher density, done required to enhance dynamism across Waterfront regeneration4 well, will play a key role in improved 5 Transit oriented development liveability, addressing issues including affordability, congestion, sustainability and social isolation. We have the capabilities to offer apartments for sale and rent in amenity rich environments that provide experiences as well as access to employment opportunities.

Our global reach and capabilities, combined with our partnering approach, provide unique insights into the likely evolution of the urban landscape. This offers scope to lead reinvigoration, renewal and reinvention. Placemaking that meets the needs of the local community is our contribution to solving urban challenges.

Our Melbourne Quarter project, the regentrification of a site which sat dormant for decades, is an example of placemaking in action. A new vibrant inner city precinct with a diverse mix of workspaces, living, hospitality, retail and green public realms, is being created. Further detail on this project is provided on page 28 of this report.

Our role is to select the cities that outperform and create environments that resonate.

Through the places we design, build and curate, we aim to create destinations where people want to be. Improved liveability, environmental sustainability, inclusion, affordability, connectedness, wellbeing and a sense of community are important elements we incorporate to create Place. Our approach is underpinned by leading safety and climate policies, and the adoption of technology. Workplace flexibility will be critical to provide a compelling proposition for both employers and employees. We expect requirements for space to be replaced by demands for ‘Place’ where the workplace is centred on collaboration and innovation, and health and wellbeing.

Digitisation

==> picture [188 x 220] intentionally omitted <==

Digitising for a more connected, safer and healthier world

The slow adoption of digitisation in the real estate sector has been a factor in poor efficiency outcomes. During the past 50 years, real estate productivity has declined by 19 per cent compared to average productivity across all other industries rising by 153 per cent.

As digital solutions emerge, Lendlease is forging new design and operational standards, processes and partnerships to simplify the interdependencies in the built environment.

Our new Product Development Centre in Singapore is part of a wider digital ecosystem of innovation that includes centres in Silicon Valley and Sydney.

The foundations for long term transformation are being assembled. We anticipate this will deliver products to market faster, and more sustainably and safely, thereby creating value for customers and communities.

Together with some of the largest and best in class organisations such as Google Cloud, Stora Enso and JCI we aim to transform the property value chain by harnessing collective knowledge through digital technology and data insights.

To deliver on our targeted production of more than $8 billion per annum , Lendlease is sourcing and developing new tech skills, capabilities and digital solutions.

Targeting

improved efficiency

Targeting cost reduction in project costs

Keeping people safe

Data insights allow us to simulate the response of building fabrics to changes in external conditions and identify risks prior to the commencement of construction. Using digital platforms, we model the safe positioning of cranes, and identify hidden risks and opportunities to assemble and operate buildings according to our high safety standards.

Accelerating speed to market

Designing healthier assets

for people and the planet

We constantly challenge the way we do things in search of a more efficient and consistent approach. The implementation of digital platforms is expected to improve the timeliness and quality of decision making by providing best practice methodologies, frameworks and tools for the entire project lifestyle.

Buildings and construction are responsible for 38 per cent of all carbon emissions in the world, with the operational emissions of buildings accounting for 28 per cent.2

We are investing to create smarter, more highly connected buildings. Digital technology is used to monitor elements such as air quality, waste consumption and energy efficiency. The resulting data insights provide the ability to test designs to improve building performance, including the abundance of natural light and reduced carbon footprints.

One Lendlease Interactive (OLi), launched into our Construction portfolio this year, helps manage more than 230 projects1 and future business opportunities valued at c.$60 billion. This project management platform provides greater consistency across our operations and the ability to digitise discrete processes, such as our investment risk analysis. It enables data to be utilised more comprehensively and therefore enhances our decision making. Our agile development approach to OLi caters to new functionality added almost weekly.

At Barangaroo, we are testing innovative and renewable energy resources:

  • Solar panels integrated with a green roof to improve energy efficiency and output

  • Using maggots to process food waste into animal feed and fertiliser.

At Milan Innovation District, data is being collected on the materials we dismantle and demolish. This enables the monitoring of recycling and the use of the circular economy.

Additionally, our digital solutions, such as digital twin technology, are set to:

  • Simplify and accelerate the built form process

  • Reduce project costs

More broadly, the connectivity features of our buildings, combined with customer focused wellness programs, enable the delivery of wellness outcomes to our customers. This year, Lendlease became the world’s first owner of commercial buildings certified with a WELL portfolio rating from the International WELL Building Institute (IWBI). We achieved this at scale across a portfolio of buildings totalling 569,216 square meters (6.1 million square feet) and benefiting nearly 60,000 people.

  • Enable us to design hundreds of scenarios to develop and and assemble a building.

The future of placemaking is now

Milan Innovation District (MIND) is a 100 hectare mixed use redevelopment, aiming to become a world leading science, knowledge and technology hub with an estimated development end value of $3.6 billion.

Housed on Milan’s famed Expo 2015 site, the design, construction and delivery brings together the entire breadth of Lendlease’s end to end capabilities. It embodies our view on the future of urbanisation: more sustainable, connected and smarter.

Creating Value

Working Together

MIND is a public private partnership (PPP), based on a 99 year concession agreement – a first and major milestone for both Milan and Italy. Together with investment partner Canada Pension Plan (CPP) Investments, the scope of works spans about half of the precinct’s area, including offices, laboratories, build to rent living, retail, feature amenities and services, as well as a creative hub.

Sustainable, innovative and modern design will be major features of MIND, in line with our global target to be a 1.5°C aligned company.

The district will be a city based on people and placemaking

Technology will be present everywhere, but invisible. We are creating buildings that facilitate data driven insights for more intuitive, responsive and consistent experiences without the glare of screens and gadgets. And our design approach uses Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DfMA) methodologies to design and deliver more safely, quickly and efficiently.

In addition to the PPP, five public and private institutions are driving the broader precinct’s development. They will deliver a new science campus for more than 18,000 students, a hospital with more than 500 beds, research centres, and a network of 68 civil society organisations.

Targeting

zero carbon

precinct

Improving the planet and people’s health is our goal

Advancing the future

Our partnerships on the MIND project are helping us realise the vision of establishing an innovation district.

MIND aims to be a zero carbon precinct. The project has already made progress to deliver this commitment with the selection of its energy partners who are leaders in their field of competence. A private smart grid, as well as a new generation low temperature and high efficiency district heating and cooling network, are being developed for the site. Renewable electricity will come from a variety of sources, including on site production from solar panels.

In February 2021, to cocreate discoveries in technology and life sciences, we launched the Federated Innovation™ ecosystem. Including Lendlease, it now comprises 32 partners, more than 100 companies and greater than 100 projects in the pipeline.

Understanding tenant priorities

Blue chip tenants from a range of industries have been enticed by our knowledge and expertise in placemaking. Our offering of premium and A grade office towers, superior transport connectivity, retail and wellbeing amenities has attracted customers such as Arup, AMP, EnergyAustralia, and Medibank across the three towers.

Drawing on our extensive placemaking capability, we introduced laneways to link the precinct to Southern Cross Station, the city’s most connected transport hub; preserved and integrated an 1890 heritage listed wall; and have created green space with a Wi-Fi enabled public sky park suspended above Collins Street.

The precinct is set to deliver a diverse range of services including an exclusive commercial tenant experience platform and a boutique wellness hub including childcare and allied health services. Coworking and flexible spaces cater to the aspirations of customers wanting to maximise the health, collaboration, connectivity and creativity of their people.

For greater inclusivity, we partnered with Summer Housing on East Tower, designing ten apartments for people with high physical support needs. A major art program was also introduced, generating c.$13 million in social value.

Our highest priority is ensuring our employees, subcontractors, and all those who interact with our places return home safely each day.

Safety metrics

Lendlease has achieved further improvements against some of our key safety metrics. Despite this, it is with much sadness that we report two fatalities on two of our operations in FY21.

As is our practice, following both incidents an independent organisation was appointed to conduct an investigation to understand the factors involved and to independently verify the application of our Global Minimum Requirements (GMRs).

In October 2020, a subcontractor working on our Curtin University project in Western Australia was involved in a partial roof collapse and died from his injuries. In November 2020, an elevator fit out

Getting our people home safely each day is our highest priority. Anything less is unacceptable.

  • Our third party provider now prohibits designs that require external access for lift car handrail fixation. In addition, through our collaboration they will now provide external reporting of workplace fatalities in their annual Sustainability Report

To learn from any serious incident and work to prevent any repeats we address the findings and recommendations from any independent incident investigations and work with internal and external designers, engineering consultants and supply chain partners to improve design, to mitigate risk and apply improved quality assurance processes.

  • Lendlease has added ‘elevator installation/fit out’ to our list of acute high risk activities in the 2021 GMRs that require independent third party review of the proposed work methodology.

The incident in Malaysia occurred when a worker was accessing the external side of an elevator car to install the interior handrail. In response:

In FY21 we launched the fourth edition, our 2021 GMRs, which incorporate updated work practices, lessons learned over the last five years and have a greater focus on the health and wellbeing of our people.

We show care through the application of our GMRs from origination, so our people know when they come to an operation they are coming to work at a safe place.

EH&S Passport

To help employees understand how to apply the 2021 GMRs, Lendlease launched new online mandatory training called EH&S Passport. The training reinforces the role we all play in safety, emphasising the everyday decisions we make and how they impact the safety of others.

95 per cent of our global workforce completed the EH&S Passport within 90 days of launch

Empowering our people with tools at their fingertips. At Lendlease, when it comes to safety, we’re all in.

We have invested in the latest technology gives all employees across Lendlease on to empower our people to make good demand information on how to apply the decisions around safety, in the moment, GMRs to workplace activities across the to prevent incidents from happening. project lifecycle.

Lendlease Hardship & Wellbeing Fund

Supporting our people through COVID and beyond

Our Hardship & Wellbeing Fund was created in 2020 to help employees experiencing genuine hardship due to the impacts of COVID or other reasons. To date, around $4.5 million has been distributed across our regions.

Recognising the potential impacts of the pandemic on our people, we invested in the development of Mental Health First Aid skills and actively embedded our program into the organisation's culture. One of the ways we did this was by emphasising wellbeing in performance conversations. This investment was particularly important in construction, knowing workers in this segment are six times more likely to have a mental health illness.

In some areas of Lendlease, the impacts of the pandemic have been particularly hard. In 2021, we utilised the Fund to make a one-off payment to a number of our frontline and customer facing workers who went to great lengths to support our customers during the pandemic.

800 employees trained as Mental Health First Aiders across our global network

The Fund addressed the immediate financial need, but we want to set our people up for success in the long term. In FY21 we engaged with our partners to deliver financial wellness education via a series of webinars to equip our people with the tools and knowledge to make informed financial decisions.

Financial

In line with our refreshed strategy announced in August 2020, the framework is designed to maximise long term securityholder value via: a diversified risk adjusted portfolio; leveraging the integrated model; and the financial strength to execute the strategy, including an investment grade credit rating.

Our approach to financial performance

The Portfolio Management Framework provides structure and financial discipline across the operating segments of Development, Construction and Investments.

Financial strategy

The Portfolio Management Framework is the core of our financial strategy. This framework sets target guidelines and is designed to:

  • Maximise long term securityholder value through a diversified, risk adjusted portfolio

A sense of place – profitable

  • Leverage the competitive advantage of our integrated model

  • Optimise our business performance relative to the outlook for our markets on a long term basis

  • Provide financial strength to execute our strategy, maintain an investment grade credit rating and sustain capacity to both absorb and respond to market volatility.

During FY21, the ongoing impact of COVID has impacted the Group’s ability to deliver on certain aspects of its Portfolio Management Framework objectives. For more detailed COVID financial impacts, refer to page 59 of the Performance and Outlook section.

How we measure financial performance

Green bonds


In June 2019 we announced our new
Sustainability Framework including
the Lendlease Sustainability Finance
Framework. This framework focuses
on efforts to support our ambitious
sustainability targets and is aligned to the
International Capital Markets Association
Green Bond Principles.
To help deliver on our sustainability target,
the Group raised a $500 million seven
year fixed rate green bond in October
2020 and a further $300 million ten year
fixed rate green bond in March 2021, to
become the largest non bank ASX listed
issuer of green bonds.
The proceeds of the bond issuance
will be focused on green buildings and
earmarked to eligible projects across
Lendlease’s global portfolio of 23 major
urbanisation projects. The delivery of
these buildings will drive a number of
initiatives, with benefits ranging from the
lowering of carbon emissions, reducing
the environmental impact of materials
and the delivery of health and wellbeing
benefits. These benefits will support the
Group’s two new sustainability targets
announced in the prior year and reflects
the Group’s commitment to:
•Net Zero Carbon for Scope 1 and 2
emissions by 2025, and Absolute Zero
Carbon by 2040
•Delivering $250 million of measured
social value by 2025.

When measuring financial performance, we focus on Return on Equity and Earnings per Security to measure the returns we achieve for securityholders. The Portfolio Management Framework outlines target returns at a segment level. These returns are used to derive a Group Core Operating Return on Equity target within the 8 to 11 per cent range, and Core Operating Earnings per Security is used to make distributions within the 40 to 60 per cent payout ratio target.

The Portfolio Management Framework reflects the revised strategy and the change in primary earnings metric from statutory profit to operating profit. As a result of this change, both the target EBITDA mix and the target distribution payout ratio are based on operating profit. The Investments ROIC target has been revised to 6 to 9 per cent to reflect the adoption of the operating profit metric. See Note 1 ‘Segment Reporting’ in the Financial Statements for more details on Operating profit.

Detailed financial performance and outlook

For detailed information on our FY21 financial performance as measured under the Portfolio Management Framework, refer to the Performance and Outlook section on pages 56 to 69 and the Financial Statements on pages 126 to 191.

Our People

Our people are the greatest contributors to our success and enable us to fulfil our purpose. Together we create value through places where communities thrive .

FY21 was a challenging year as we adapted to new ways of working. Supporting our people during the pandemic has been our priority. From enhanced communications and technology enabling remote work to providing additional funding for frontline workers (see Hardship & Wellbeing Fund on page 35), we are invested in the health and wellbeing of our people.

To deliver our refreshed business strategy we need to attract, retain and invest in our people to have the right capabilities to succeed into the future. We aspire to create a work environment that:

Developing and deploying key talent

As we accelerate the delivery of our global pipeline of projects, we continue to invest in the development of our people’s capabilities.

  • Cares for its people, with safety and wellbeing our priority

This year we launched our Leadership Excellence Program aimed at driving leadership engagement and providing our leaders with the right capabilities to inspire and lead our people. We have continued to invest in the development of key talent through our Construction Director and Project Director talent programs, which shifted to virtual delivery.

  • Provides inspirational leadership with a clear direction for the future

  • Is team oriented, inclusive and diverse

  • Fosters a culture aligned to purpose and values that drives the way we operate with each other and creates a sense of belonging.

  • 10,825 excellence. We are working to foster

  • Employees globally1 an enterprise first mindset and sharing knowledge globally.

In FY21, our pipeline of successors for key leadership roles, along with the number of women in our succession pool, increased. For senior executive positions, we have a target of three unique successors and in our FY21 talent and succession review, 79 per cent of senior executive positions met this target.

==> picture [363 x 353] intentionally omitted <==

Retention of key talent has been challenging in the current operating environment. In FY21, we achieved a retention rate of 87 per cent, slightly below our target of 90 per cent or higher. We see this as an ongoing risk into 2022 as border restrictions continue to impact the mobility of talent.

Employee experience

Teams are at the heart of our listening strategy and help us to understand the environment and experiences we are providing our employees. These insights help us to be responsive and provide our leaders with key actions to support our employees to thrive.

Further demonstrating our strong culture of care, our most recent results also showed that employee perceptions of their manager providing support through COVID increased.

Consistently our highest performing area in the survey is Safety which is pleasing. To improve our engagement result our people have told us we need to provide more visible career development and

Supporting our managers and employees through these challenging times remains a key focus for us as we deliver on our $114 billion pipeline.

In our most recent People Survey, we achieved an employee engagement result of 62 per cent. At the global level this falls below the median and top quartile

Supporting flexible working

Diversity and inclusion

FY21 diversity and inclusion actions

We prioritise connection to our workplaces and our culture. We remain committed to enabling flexible work options. We established new ways of working through virtual tools, events and communications to share knowledge and connect people, regardless of where they were working.

Lendlease has a diverse global workforce and we have made great progress in improving our diversity areas of focus, but we still have work to do. We are committed to creating a workplace that unites diverse minds, where respect, equal treatment and equal opportunity are the norm. Aligned with our Modern Slavery Statement, this helps us to act with integrity in our business relationships.

Anti-racism

Lendlease conducted a number of listening sessions in the US and UK to provide a safe space for our people to share their stories, listen and learn. This has led to a number of internal working groups focused on equity at all Lendlease touch points, internally and externally.

Our team in Japan were quick to establish new work protocols to accommodate remote working, while maintaining team connections and a core focus on mental health. Initiatives such as using chat bots for enquiries and an online wellbeing community hub influenced our global standard, not only during periods of lockdown, but how we conduct business on an ongoing basis.

The Americas' business established a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) Advisory Council with a diverse mix of employees and two external DEI experts to help inform DEI strategic priorities for the region.

In FY21, to strengthen our culture of inclusion, we focused on unwelcomed or intrusive language and behaviours, many of which are influenced outside of the workplace. We understand the importance of psychological safety and have further invested in the ongoing support for employee wellbeing. Our efforts not only provide support for affected individuals, but also educate for social change.

In Australia, our Elevate RAP includes a detailed action plan to support career progression for our First Nations' employees (see RAP on page 45).

LGBTQ+ inclusion and recognition

Our actions add up. We continue to be recognised for our efforts in LGBTQ+ inclusion.

Eradicating everyday sexism

We created an awareness video and toolkit to bring attention to common language, behaviours and social norms that perpetuate gender stereotypes and assumptions.

In the Americas, Lendlease scored 100 in the Corporate Equality Index for the fifth consecutive year and achieved 'Best Place to Work for LGBTQ Equality'.

Resources were designed to generate self reflection and conversation.

In Australia, we partnered with the University of New South Wales to research barriers to LGBTQ+ inclusion on construction sites and shared insights and recommendations with the industry.

We provided tips on how to identify and address inappropriate behaviour and sent a call to action to all employees.

Mission Zero

As a 1.5°C aligned company, we have set ourselves ambitious science based emissions reductions targets.

In May 2021, we launched Mission Zero , a global campaign to raise awareness about our mission to reach Net Zero Carbon by 2025 and Absolute Zero by 2040.

By 2040, no greenhouse gas emissions from our business activities. No offsets. Our Absolute Zero target applies to Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions.1

By 2025, we'll reduce greenhouse gas emissions as far as possible, with the remainder offset in an approved carbon offset scheme. Our Net Zero target applies to Scope 1 and 2 emissions.

Our progress

32%

31%

We have made positive progress in FY21 to reduce our Scope 1 and 2 emissions. The sale of our Engineering business and the ongoing impact of COVID significantly impacted our emissions (see page 55 for our FY21 environmental performance). While Scope 1 and 2 emissions are our immediate focus, we have increased our engagement and collaboration across the real estate sector to also start addressing Scope 3 emissions.

under our 1.5ºC aligned trajectory for Scope 1 and 2 emissions in FY21

of our Scope 1 and 2 emissions offset in FY21

We are well on our way to offsetting 100% of our residual carbon emissions to achieve Net Zero Carbon by 2025

We are in a good position to maintain our trajectory to achieve Absolute Zero by 2040

The road to Absolute Zero Carbon

Step 1

Create a decarbonisation investment strategy in 2021.

Established a Lendlease Decarbonisation Investment Group (DIG) to identify decarbonisation investment opportunities and strategy

Launched online carbon education tools and resources to help our people understand our targets and what is required to be a 1.5°C aligned business

Step 2

Phase out diesel and gas in our operations.

Implemented successful renewable diesel (HVO) pilots across a number of UK projects

Launched an alternative fuels policy across our UK business, liquid fossil fuels no longer accepted on any new UK construction projects and existing projects have until January 2022 to comply

Saved 9.12 ktCO2-eq by using one tonne electric excavators on Manchester Town Hall restoration project – the equivalent of around ten passengers flying from London to New York

Trialling a 20 per cent biodiesel blend (B20) at Caboolture Hospital redevelopment and using a 5 per cent biodiesel blend (B5) in cranes, generators, boom lifts and excavators on several other Australian projects

Lendlease are designing and delivering ‘all electric’ buildings, including Sydney Metro Victoria Cross – Over Station Development, Sherwin Rise Retirement Living Villas and Monash University's Woodside Building for Technology and Design in Australia, MIND in Italy, 30 Van Ness in San Francisco, and our US residential community at Fort Campbell

Step 3

Use 100 per cent renewable electricity before 2030.

Continued to deploy energy efficiency measures and upgrades to plant and equipment

Lendlease Building Australia switched to 100 per cent renewable electricity from January 2021

Through this five step plan we are going to turn our commitments into action. Here are some of the ways we are already implementing change.

Lendlease’s Australian Prime Property Fund (APPF) Industrial signed an agreement to deliver a renewable energy program for up to $20 million

Alongside our two carbon targets, we are also focused on reducing waste and water consumption, and promoting biodiversity.

Integrated 2MW of solar power systems across the APPF Commercial portfolio

From FY22 our Australian corporate workplaces will be powered by 100 per cent renewable electricity

Waste

As part of our circular economy ambitions, we are partnering with WWF Singapore on a Waste in Retail Research Initiative. Through this initiative, we are undertaking research into waste management practices including waste generated at malls. The knowledge we develop will be shared with the retail property management industry and key stakeholders.

All Chicago construction projects are utilising 100 per cent renewable electricity, and Boston’s Clippership Wharf development has been procuring renewable electricity for owner controlled spaces since November 2020

MIND will be powered only by renewable energy sources (see page 26)

Step 4

Water

Collaborate with supply chain partners to set pathways to achieve Absolute Zero Carbon by 2040.

Total village water consumption across our Australian Retirement Living portfolio decreased by 1.8 per cent in CY2020 compared to CY2019, a significant achievement given residents were spending more time at home during 2020 due to COVID. In our 48 villages with real time water monitoring, water consumption decreased by 4.1 per cent over the same period. These savings have been realised by residents through their village water bills. We are now working to roll out real time water loggers nationally.

Became one of the first companies globally to join SteelZero to drive market demand for net zero carbon steel

Joined as a founding member of the Materials and Embodied Carbon Leaders Alliance (MECLA), a new industry led coalition to decarbonise Australia’s building and construction industry

Joined Race to Zero, one of the first companies in the built environment sector to do so

Biodiversity

Valuing natural capital continues to be a focus for us globally as we apply nature based solutions to create biodiversity and climate resilient communities. The urban ecosystem at Southbank, Chicago, stands in lush contrast to the site's past history, featuring migratory birdhouses, beehives, a rooftop farm, native grasses to restore the waterways, and a river walk and park for the community. In Malaysia, The Exchange TRX will be delivering a new city park in Kuala Lumpur which will be home to more than 150,000 plantings from close to 150 native plants species, creating a new ecological corridor for urban birds, butterflies and bees.

Step 5

Collaborate with our tenants and residents to transition to renewable electricity and achieve Absolute Zero Carbon by 2040.

In partnership with Aware Super, our US residential portfolio of urbanisation projects across Boston and Chicago has been verified net zero carbon

At London’s Elephant Park, all residents and tenants are now automatically signed up to a green electricity tariff

Lendlease Funds Management’s Australian office portfolio has been officially certified carbon neutral

Our sites have been operating under enhanced COVID measures so that we can continue to deliver our projects safely and in line with expectations.

The impact of COVID from an operational perspective has been felt around the world. Operational Enterprise Risks such as Execution and Commercial have experienced the greatest impact in the reporting period.

Commercial Underperformance: failure to execute given reliance on supply chain to deliver

  • Regulatory and Counterparty: supply chain ethics fail to meet our standards

  • Non-scalable Growth: the need for

As the Group continues to actively work through understanding and addressing the long term impacts of COVID from an operational and strategic perspective, our risk teams around the world remain active participants in government and industry forums to help reshape the future.

  • strong global and regional supply chain partnerships are required to support in a global context or in dynamic supply chains.

Our commitment to the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights has been memorialised in our Modern Slavery Statement (FY20). Our phased approach scopes potential modern slavery risks that we may either cause, contribute to, or to which our operations may be directly linked. We will continue to evolve and mature as envisaged in our statement.

Our areas of focus for business resilience are:

Health, Safety and Wellbeing: The health and safety of our places and people is our priority. The Board and Leadership Teams continue to provide frequent and transparent communications to the business to keep our people well informed and safe.

Responding to climate related impacts

Operational Risk: Global COVID steering committees are in effect and continue to receive weekly updates and insights relevant to our business. Lendlease is prepared and has clear processes for the management of interruption to our operations and people.

The business also recognises the risks and opportunities associated with climate change.

Lendlease supports the recommendations of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) and in 2018 committed to producing annual disclosures that consider these recommendations.

Business Continuity and Crisis

Management: During the reporting period Crisis Management Plans were activated and followed in response to COVID impacts. The business was technologically prepared which empowered employees to work remotely. Business continuity plans are reviewed and updated periodically.

We have a phased approach to integrating the recommendations of TCFD over time, and this is our third annual TCFD disclosure. Our disclosure continues to evolve as we enhance our management of climate related risks and as advancements are made in the maturity of climate related financial disclosures.

48 A sense of place Risk

The Board is responsible for ensuring the effectiveness of the risk management framework. The risk management process outlines the governance, risk appetite and accountability for the risk management and operational resilience program.

The framework is underpinned by a ‘Three Lines of Defence’ model. The model codifies the defensive aspects of risk and allows for the broader aspects of value creation and organisational success.

Risk Governance and Management

Our risk framework remains unchanged from a governance perspective. This continues to become infused into the DNA of our business.

Our approach aims at providing best in class governance, innovation and people to embed a risk intelligent culture that delivers on strategy and produces predictable and repeatable outcomes.

Risk Appetite Framework

Continuous

Following the Risk Committee’s approval of the Risk Appetite Framework and its subsequent implementation, the Board’s level of oversight across the business has been enhanced.

Improvement

The Risk Appetite Framework is reviewed annually by the Group Chief Risk Officer and approved by the Board Risk Committee.

As Risk Appetite continues to evolve, the risk tolerances and accompanying standards and frameworks are refined to remain fit for purpose.

  • Group Standards on Project Environmental and Social Risk Assessment

Any changes outside of the annual review cycle that encompass the addition of new statements and tolerances will be reviewed and approved by the Board Risk Committee on a quarterly basis.

  • Group Standard on Design Complexity

  • Group Policy and Standard on Customer Complaints and Feedback.

Of note in the period, the following policies and standards were implemented and will allow the Board to increase its oversight of the business:

The integration of climate risk assessments into our investment decision making processes has seen reduced residual sensitivities to climate impacts.

The assessment of the five CRIs per scenario most likely to appear in the medium term has indicated a greater resilience (higher residual positive sensitivity) in our business strategy to our Paris Aligned scenario, a world that sees continued global commitment to the Paris Agreement.

Electricity used by the Investment Management business is the largest contributor to our Scope 1 and 2 emissions. Our plans to increase the purchase of renewable electricity to achieve our target of 100 per cent renewable electricity by 2030 should significantly reduce the Scope 2 carbon emissions associated with this line of business.

Our environmental performance has seen both energy use and emissions affected by the impact of COVID and the sale of the Engineering business. We have also made significant progress in reducing carbon emissions through business commitments to renewable electricity and renewable diesel (see page 43).

In FY21, the business easily achieved the first year carbon target for our 1.5°C alignment and made significant progress on our 2030 renewable electricity target.

Group performance

COVID impacts. However, the pandemic continues to impact the business with ongoing challenging operating conditions affecting each of the segments. Development was adversely impacted by London lockdowns, investment income was suppressed and construction revenue was lower.

As an international real estate group with a presence in targeted gateway cities, the pandemic had a pervasive impact on operations in FY21. Statutory Profit after Tax for the year ending 30 June 2021 was $222 million. This included a loss of $181 million for the Non core segment, driven by additional provisioning relating to claims on historical engineering projects.

The largest contributor to the Development segment was the creation of separate investment partnerships to deliver the first two residential towers at Barangaroo. While the return outcome for the segment was below target, progress continues to be made towards converting the development pipeline, as well as securing additional urbanisation projects.

The Performance and Outlook discloses profit after tax on both a statutory and operating basis. The Core Operating profit metrics1 provide a clear view of the Group’s underlying operating result, excluding the impacts of the Non core segment and property revaluations in the Investments segment.

In the Construction segment, despite revenue being down and a weak second half in the UK, performance across the portfolio was solid, with overall returns at the upper end of the target range. Activity continued to be impacted by delays in the commencement of new projects and ongoing productivity impacts across sites.

The Group recorded Core Operating Profit after Tax of $377 million for the year ended 30 June 2021. Core Operating Earnings per Security was 54.8 cents with a Return on Equity of 5.4 per cent, below the target range. Distributions per Security totalled 27 cents, representing a payout ratio of 49 per cent of Core Operating profit.

The Investments segment recovered from the worst of the COVID impacts, although returns remained below the target range. Ownership returns across retirement were higher, while asset management fees were impacted by lower activity across the retail sector. Earnings in the prior year were boosted by a substantial performance fee.

The Group made significant progress on its strategic priorities. Investment partner initiatives worth $5.1 billion that will drive future funds under management were progressed. Six new urbanisation projects were secured with a total end value of $7.4 billion. The sale of the Engineering business was completed and the US Telecommunications and Energy businesses were divested. Post balance date the sale of the Services business was announced with completion expected prior to the end of the calendar year.

Corporate costs of $161 million comprised Group Services costs of $128 million, which were stable, and treasury costs of $33 million. Net finance costs of $137million were down 10 per cent2 due to lower average net debt.

Core segment EBITDA of $918 million increased 27 per cent on the prior year as performance recovered from the worst of the

Portfolio Management Framework

The enforced lockdowns and isolation from the COVID pandemic have had significant ramifications for real estate markets across the gateway cities in which the Group operates. While we are confident these cities will rebound strongly over the medium term, FY22 is expected to be a challenging year, particularly for our Development segment. Core operating return targets for the Development segment and the overall Group are expected to be below target ranges for FY22.

The Portfolio Management Framework is designed to maximise long term securityholder value via a diversified risk adjusted portfolio, leveraging the integrated model and the financial strength to execute the strategy, including an investment grade credit rating.

The framework was revised in August 2020 as part of the Group’s strategy update. While the target EBITDA segment earnings mix was maintained, it is now based on operating profit. This implies an approximate ten percentage point higher target contribution from Investments relative to that of recent years. The target capital allocation to Investments moving to the upper end of the range over time is expected to support a larger contribution from Investments over the medium term. The target capital allocation to each of the international regions was raised by five percentage points.

The wide ranging business review that commenced in FY20, is yet to complete, although preliminary findings have been reached. The strategy and strategic priorities have been confirmed. The Group Core Operating ROE target of 8-11 per cent is anticipated to be met by FY24. Statutory profit in H1 FY22 is expected to include a restructuring charge estimate of $130 to $170 million and an impairment of $230 to $290 million in the Development segment based on outcomes arising from the business review.

The revised return targets are derived from hurdle rates that have not been adjusted. The changes relate to the adoption of the operating profit metric, combined with the target reweighting to the Investments segment. This has led to a revised Investments ROIC target of 6-9 per cent and a revised Group ROE target of 8-11 per cent. The distribution payout policy is 40-60 per cent of Core Operating profit.

The Group’s end to end capability across real estate and a proven track record is reflected in the $114 billion development pipeline, which includes a portfolio of 23 major urbanisation projects across ten gateway cities. The size and diversity of the pipeline is expected to support the acceleration of production to more than $8 billion per annum by FY24, approximately twelve months later than previous expectations due to ongoing COVID impacts.

Returns for the Core business were challenged, reflecting difficult operating conditions: Development returns were below the target range; the Construction margin was in the upper half of the target range; and Investments was below the target range.

The Group expects to create more than $50 billion of investment grade product from the development pipeline. This provides a significant opportunity to more than double the current $40 billion of funds under management and expand the Group’s $29 billion of assets under management. The further strengthening of the balance sheet following recent strategic divestments provides the capacity for the Group to pursue new investment opportunities alongside investment partners.

The balance sheet remains in a strong position with gearing below the target range and total liquidity of $4.9 billion.

The Development segment has experienced various COVID related impacts on both historical and projected future year performance. The various impacts are expected to persist into FY22, affecting both activity and the profitability of the Development segment.

  • Tenant demand and investment partner appetite in the office sector

  • Weaker demand for new apartment product, especially from the investor segment of the market, impacting new project launches

  • Settlement delays have occurred in the apartments for sale product that has completed, with some purchasers requiring more time to settle

  • Extended lockdowns across the gateway cities in which the Group operates

  • Identified projects that were substantially impacted, but unable to be quantified as solely related to COVID, included:

  • A $60 million provision recorded against the first two residential for rent buildings at Elephant Park, London where rental demand was severely impacted. The overall project remains profitable

  • c.$40 million in negative pricing differential between Tower One and Tower Two at One Sydney Harbour on capital solutions achieved, with Tower One pricing occurring during the height of COVID uncertainty, reflected in pricing improvement on Tower Two

  • An investment partner was not secured in FY21 on the next phase of International Quarter London

  • There were also some positive impacts for the Development segment:

  • Demand and pricing for luxury apartments at Barangaroo was aided by the strength of established house prices, in part a function of the significant decline in household borrowing costs

  • Government stimulus measures, including first home buyer schemes, have resulted in stronger activity in the new detached housing market in Australia

  • The Group took advantage of the weaker operating environment by securing additional urbanisation projects on attractive terms.

Construction segment

COVID continued to impact on delivery and revenue across the segment during the year. These factors contributed to revenue being down 16 per cent on the prior year.

  • Impacts included:

  • Social distancing protocols on productivity across our sites was reflected in a 16 per cent decline in revenue compared to a 9 per cent decline in hours worked

  • Projects being put on hold in some markets, with delays in the securing and commencement of new projects

  • Declining private sector activity, particularly in the US, impacting new work secured

  • • Cost management measures implemented following the onset of the pandemic cushioned the impact on construction segment margins

  • Conversely, public sector activity has increased, with an acceleration of projects being brought to market. This supported strong new work secured outcomes in Australia and a rebound in new work conversions in Europe compared to the prior year.

Investments segment

Performance across asset management and investment income was impacted due to COVID, although there was some recovery from the worst of the impacts that were experienced in the second half of FY20.

  • The impact was pronounced in the retail sector:

  • Retail asset management fees were lower than in the prior year

  • The Group’s investment portfolio was impacted by similar factors:

  • Coinvestment income was impacted with activity disrupted across underlying assets

  • The trading performance of the Retirement Living business remained subdued, although it recovered during the year reflecting the strength of the established housing market

  • Extended stabilisation periods are being experienced on recently completed assets

  • Identified projects and assets that were substantially impacted, but unable to be quantified as solely related to COVID, included:

  • Coinvestment yields impacted by c.$40 million1 in rental assistance provided to tenants across the portfolio

  • 845 West Madison, Apartment for rent building in Chicago lower than expected occupancy

  • While income has been impacted, real estate valuations were resilient in the year with coinvestments appreciating overall, highlighting the ongoing demand for high quality assets by investors.

Government wage programs

  • Singapore – Job Support Scheme (JSS) – The JSS provides cofunding for all active employers in Singapore. As an employer in Singapore, the Group received funding under this scheme.

In several countries, governments have established wage programs with the aim of keeping people in employment through the pandemic. The position of the Group in respect of these programs is:

  • Australia – No participation in JobKeeper in the year

The amounts under these programs, totalling approximately $10 million, were not material in the year. All benefits were received in the first half of FY21.

  • UK – Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme – Employees of the Group, who were furloughed during the year, received the benefit of payments under this scheme

Development performance

The Development segment delivered EBITDA of $469 million, up 46 per cent.1 While the performance of the business improved from the worst of the COVID impacts, the operating environment remained challenging. Return on Invested Capital of 7.2 per cent was below the bottom end of the target range of 10-13 per cent. Invested capital decreased from $4.8 billion to $4.4 billion with a greater proportion of development activity occurring with investment partners and some delays in production activity.

Delivery commenced on residential product at Residences Two, One Sydney Harbour, TRX in Kuala Lumpur, Ardor Gardens in Shanghai, and 100 Claremont Avenue in New York. Apartments for sale were launched on the next stages at Southbank in Chicago and Elephant Park in London.

Production of $3.8 billion included the completion of both commercial and residential buildings at Melbourne Quarter and residential for rent at Elephant Park in London and 845 West Madison in Chicago. Work in progress,2 the lead indicator for future production, ended the period at $14.5 billion. This includes $6.9 billion of commercial buildings in Melbourne, Milan, Sydney and Kuala Lumpur; $5.9 billion of apartments for sale in Sydney, Kuala Lumpur, London, Chicago and New York; and $1.3 billion of apartments for rent in London, Chicago and Shanghai.

Progress continues to be made on converting the development pipeline. This included creating new investment partnerships, the launch of residential product, achieving planning milestones and securing additional urbanisation projects.

Two residential towers at One Sydney Harbour, Barangaroo, contributed $325 million to EBITDA. The forward sale of Melbourne Quarter Tower and a new joint venture partnership at Milan Innovation District were other key contributors to the result. The largest contributors to apartments for sale settlements were Melbourne Quarter and Clippership Wharf, Boston. While settlements across the Australian Communities portfolio were up 17 per cent to 2,228 lots, they were well below both target levels and broader performance across the industry.

Six urbanisation projects were added to the pipeline. In the UK, the c.$3.5 billion Smithfield project will provide more than 3,000 new homes. In Boston, 60 Guest Street should become a state of the art life sciences building with an estimated end value of $0.8 billion. In New York, 1 Java Street is planned to transform a city block into apartments for rent with an estimated end value of $1.0 billion. The Group also secured its first urbanisation project in Los Angeles at La Cienega Boulevard with an estimated end value of $0.8 billion, which is planned to include apartments for rent and office space.

Development outlook

for both activity and profitability of the Development segment over the next two years. In addition, profit recognition on projects we commence with investment partners is expected to be more closely aligned with the achievement of key delivery milestones and project cash flow outcomes in future periods. This will result in a transition phase in the short term.

The estimated end value of the development pipeline was steady on the prior year at $114 billion. While origination activity was strong with new projects of $8 billion secured, it was offset by completions and foreign exchange rate movements. The pipeline comprises $101 billion of urbanisation projects, including 23 major urbanisation projects across ten gateway cities, and $13 billion of communities projects.

Notwithstanding the impact of the pandemic, there is $14.5 billion of work in progress, and the Group expects to commence more than $16 billion of work in FY22-FY23. Important planning milestones have progressed across numerous urbanisation projects that have been secured in recent years. We expect many of these to move into the delivery phase over the next two financial years, although weighted towards FY23. These include the San Francisco Bay Area project, High Road West in London and La Cienega Boulevarde in Los Angeles.

The size of the development pipeline, as well as its diversity by gateway city and product type, provides scope for a material acceleration in development activity. Our target is to produce greater than $8 billion of product per annum. While this will not be achievable in the near term, we expect the target to be reached by FY24.

COVID has had a widespread impact on many of the gateway cities in which we operate. The enforced lockdowns and isolation caused by the pandemic have had significant ramifications for real estate markets across these cities.

The Australian Communities business has not been positioned to take full advantage of the favourable market environment over the last year. We expect sales to accelerate in FY22, boosted by the commencement of new projects. However, with the typical lag between sales and subsequent settlements, volumes are expected to remain below the annual settlement target of 3,000-4,000 lots.

Gateway cities across our platform have been selected based on their resilience and prospects for long term outperformance. While we expect these cities to rebound strongly over time, near term challenges are likely to persist. This will have implications

Construction performance

and commercial and residential towers at Melbourne Quarter. New work secured of $8.8 billion was up from $7.5 billion with the Australian and European businesses benefitting from public sector activity.

The Construction segment delivered a good result, notwithstanding significant COVID disruptions. EBITDA of $173 million was up from $101 million in the prior year.

Revenue of $6.4 billion was down 16 per cent,1 with activity still impacted by delays in the commencement of new projects and ongoing productivity impacts across sites. Revenue from Australia and the Americas, which accounts for more than 80 per cent of total Construction revenue, declined by 11 per cent1 and 29 per cent1 respectively.

In Australia, new work secured of $4.3 billion was underpinned by several projects in the defence sector, the Caboolture and Tweed Valley Hospitals and Cairns Convention Centre. This was supplemented by private sector projects including the office tower at 555 Collins Street, Melbourne. The European business secured $1.5 billion of new work. This was predominantly from government clients and includes projects for the London Borough of Camden, the Ministry of Justice and Manchester City Council.

The EBITDA margin rose to 2.7 per cent, the upper end of the target range of 2-3 per cent. Overall performance across the portfolio was solid, despite a weaker outcome in Europe. Margins were aided by contributions from projects that reached completion. In addition, disciplined cost management implemented in response to the pandemic had a positive impact on earnings.

New work secured of $2.5 billion in the Americas was well below historical averages, reflecting subdued activity in the key markets along with some delays in projects being brought to market.

Extensive sector expertise and geographic diversity has been critical for the business to navigate through a difficult operating environment.

Completions included the Crown Sydney Hotel, two residential for rent buildings at Elephant Park, a major defence contract

Construction outlook

The outlook for the Construction segment remains subject to the potential ongoing disruption risk from COVID. Backlog revenue remains solid and increased modestly to $14.9 billion, with $11.3 billion relating to external clients which will generate future revenue and margin. The remaining backlog relates to integrated projects, with the margin reported through the Development segment.

The backlog remains diversified by both client type and geography. However, public sector projects have become more important for the business in the near term and now account for more than half of the external backlog. This has also resulted in a shift in the sector mix with the social infrastructure and defence sectors becoming more prominent as a proportion of the backlog.

The Group’s development target of greater than $8 billion of production per annum represents a material uplift in the amount of development activity and this is expected to benefit the Construction business.

Australia has a strong workbook, with $8.6 billion in backlog revenue. Key projects include Residences One and Two at

The established Construction business in the Americas has good market share in its target cities and sectors with backlog revenue of $3.9 billion. Subdued recent new work secured volume has resulted in a decline in backlog. The strong growth in the urbanisation pipeline to $27.8 billion in the region provides substantial opportunities for future construction backlog.

Backlog revenue in Europe is $1.7 billion. Recent project wins provide near term certainty of activity while Europe’s $51.8 billion development pipeline is expected to provide a significant amount of construction work in future years.

In Asia, backlog revenue is modest relative to other regions as the business focuses on the delivery of The Exchange TRX in Kuala Lumpur and specialist sectors for external clients.

Investments performance

Ownership EBITDA was $111 million, up from $102 million, reflecting a recovery in underlying investment income, which more than offset lower asset sale profits during the year. The challenging retail environment also resulted in lower returns across the Group’s retail investments. Ownership earnings exclude the impact of property revaluations across the investment portfolio.

The Investments segment delivered EBITDA of $276 million, down 8 per cent on the prior year as performance continued to be impacted by COVID. The segment generated a Return on Invested Capital of 5.9 per cent, just below the target of 6-9 per cent.

Management EBITDA, derived from funds and asset management activities across the Group’s Investments platform, was $165 million, down from $198 million.1

The trading performance of the Retirement Living business, while still subdued, recovered during the year, reflecting the strength of the established housing market. There was a modest rise in resales coupled with strong price growth and an uplift in the sale of new units.

Funds management revenue of $145 million was down from $212 million due primarily to the significant performance fee generated from the completion of Paya Lebar Quarter in the prior year.

Asset management revenue of $139 million was up from $105 million. $1.3 billion of redevelopment activity was secured across the US residential portfolio underpinning the overall increase in asset management fees. Performance was impacted by lower retail asset management fees, with COVID impacting activity across the sector. Residential asset management fees now represent the largest component of the asset management revenue base.

The Group’s investments closed the year at $3.5 billion, down from $4.0 billion, reflecting the sale of the US Telecommunications Infrastructure business and the divestment of a 25 per cent interest in the Retirement Living business. The Investment portfolio is well diversified, with the predominant exposure across the retirement, office, retail and residential sectors.

Investments outlook

Assets under management declined slightly to $28.5 billion, reflecting the foreign exchange translation impact on the US residential portfolio and modest valuation declines across retail assets.

Funds under management, assets under management and the investment portfolio are the key operating metrics that drive performance.

The Group’s investments of $3.5 billion includes $0.9 billion in each of retirement, retail and office assets, respectively, and $0.7 billion in residential, with the remainder in industrial. The Group made further progress in realigning its exposure to the retirement sector with an investment partner acquiring 25 per cent of the Retirement Living business. This reduced the Group’s interest to 50 per cent. The Group continues to assess redeployment opportunities within the Investments segment.

Funds under management commenced the new financial year at $39.6 billion, up ten per cent.1 The growth was underpinned by a new $2 billion multisector investment mandate secured in Australia, additional residential for rent product in both the US and Europe, and acquisitions across the Australian Funds Management platform. This more than offset the negative foreign exchange translation impact due to the appreciation of the Australian dollar. In addition to the current funds under management, there is approximately $2.7 billion of future secured FUM based on development projects currently in delivery via managed funds or mandates.

The Group’s strategy is to significantly grow its investment portfolio over time, delivering the Group a solid base of recurring earnings. Growth is expected to include retaining a larger proportion of completed assets from the development pipeline and investing alongside investment partners through the launch of new products. Key initiatives progressed during the year include securing the first data centre development in Japan under the Lendlease Data Centre Partners, and the establishment of a new life sciences investment partnership in the US.

The Group’s urbanisation development pipeline is expected to continue to provide a key source of future growth for the Investments platform. The existing urbanisation development pipeline includes more than $50 billion of institutional investment grade product across commercial and residential for rent assets.

Non core segment

The Group completed the sale of the Engineering business to Acciona Infrastructure Asia Pacific in September 2020. The Group has received $150 million of the agreed purchase price of $197 million. The final deferred payment, which was due on 30 June 2021, has not been received. The Group has commenced legal proceedings against Acciona in relation to remaining amounts owing. There was no impact on the Income Statement from the sale, that is, there was no gain or loss on sale. A working capital cash balance of $411 million transferred to the buyer upon settlement.

Under the terms of the sale agreement, the Group retained three projects and exposure to other historical projects. The Group recorded $168 million after tax in additional provisioning relating to claims on historical projects completed prior to the sale of the Engineering business. These claims are subject to dispute proceedings and are expected to take time to resolve.

The Melbourne Metro Project, the remaining project in delivery, is scheduled to complete in 2025. During the year, the Cross Yarra Partnership and the D&C Subcontractor joint venture between Lendlease, John Holland and Bouygues Construction resolved identified issues with the Victorian Government in relation to the scope and costs on the project. The project progressed well during the year and did not require any additional provision.

Post balance date, an agreement was entered into with Service Stream for the sale of the Services business for a purchase price of $310 million. The transaction is expected to complete prior to the end of calendar year 2021.

The loss of $181 million after tax for the Non core segment includes the additional provision to cover claims on historical projects, the performance of the Engineering business prior to sale completion, the retained Melbourne Metro project and the Services business.

Inventories

Other asset movements

The 29 per cent decline in Investment properties reflects the sale of the US Telecommunications business, more than offsetting growth in other investments. The sale of the Engineering business resulted in Disposal Group assets held for sale declining to zero.

Inventories decreased by 28 per cent following several development initiatives with investment partners, the settlement of residential apartments and declining construction inventories. The formation of new investment partnerships and subsequent reclassification of both Residences One and Two at One Sydney Harbour to Equity Accounted Investments were the largest contributors to the decline.

Total assets, total liabilities and net assets

Total assets decreased four per cent and total liabilities declined by seven per cent, with the sale of the Engineering business being a key contributor in each case.

Equity accounted investments increased by two per cent. The residential towers at Barangaroo, together with equity contributions for the newly secured urbanisation projects in New York and Los Angeles, were the main sources of growth. These were almost offset by a reduction in investments relating to the divestment of a 25 per cent interest in the Retirement Living business.

1. Net assets of $171 million have been disposed of upon completion of the sale of the Engineering business.

1. Only the next five years of revenue secured on new contracts has been included.

Financing cash flow

Operating and investing cash flow

Net cash outflow from financing activities was $146 million with the repayment of borrowings and distribution payments exceeding the proceeds from borrowings. The Group continued to diversify its sources of financing with the issue of two green bond offers, a first for the Group, including a $500 million green bond representing the largest issued by an Australian non financial corporate. The Group remains in a strong financial position with $4.9 billion of liquidity.

The Group measures underlying cash flow to enable an assessment of cash conversion. The measures are derived by adjusting statutory cash flows, with the largest adjustment relating to the impact on cash flows from investments in development. Underlying operating cash outflow was $469 million. The establishment of separate development joint ventures to deliver two residential towers at One Sydney Harbour resulted in an approximate $900 million decrease in the underlying operating cash flow and an equivalent increase in underlying investing cash flow. Net underlying operating cash inflow was solid across a range of other development projects. There was also an approximate $200 million operating cash outflow from the Non core segment. The cash conversion ratio to operating EBITDA over the five years to FY21 was 73 per cent.

Underlying investing cash inflow was $948 million. Proceeds from strategic divestments in the year, combined with the One Sydney Harbour cash inflows, more than offset additional capital commitments across the Development and Investments segments. The largest sources of inflow were from the further 25 per cent sale of the Retirement Living business and several strategic divestments, although the proceeds from the sale of the Engineering business were more than offset by the working capital cash balance transfer.

Engagement

Board regional program FY21

As an international company and having regard for the material scale of individual projects, the Board program is formulated to reflect the geographic spread of Lendlease's businesses.

The Chair works with the Company Secretary to forward plan the program for the year. Depending on the time of year and depth of project review required, the program runs for three to five days.

The Board program typically comprises formal meetings and additional business briefings, presentations from internal and external sources, project site visits, employee events and meetings with key stakeholders and customers.

In FY21, the Board maintained its regular cadence of meetings. While some engagement activities with our people and customers were temporarily placed on hold in response to COVID, other parts of the program were able to be maintained through the use of virtual technology.

The Lendlease Board views these program activities, in addition to the formal, scheduled Board and Committee meetings, as an important part of receiving a greater understanding of our people, our business and the activities and operations within each region.

Board Project Assessments

One of the key responsibilities of the Lendlease Board is to oversee the strategy so the Group can pursue its integrated business model in targeted gateway cities around the world. In FY21, the Board used technology to attend site visits and attend deep dive reviews of various projects.

to move forward with the MIND project. The deep dive covered several aspects of the development including the alignment to strategy. Factors considered included urbanisation and digital aspects, understanding of risk limits, capital partners, the development’s viability, commercial assessment, risk factors, geopolitical matters, the safety, sustainability and environment strategy, and the planning and scheme masterplan process. These issues continued to be discussed in project updates at various times and while not exhaustive, were indicative of the issues considered during boardroom discussions.

independent, Non Executive Directors. The Chair of each Committee is not a Chair of other Committees, or Chair of the Board. Each Committee is governed by a formal Charter setting out its objectives, roles and responsibilities, composition, structure, membership requirements and operation. Directors who are not members of the Committees have a standing invitation to attend meetings of the Committees. During the reporting period and in conjunction with the review of the Board and its Committees, a review of the accompanying Charters and Workplans for each of the Committees was undertaken.

Directors’ Meetings

Board meetings

The Board meets as often as necessary to fulfil its role. Directors are required to allocate sufficient time to the Group to perform their responsibilities effectively, including adequate time to prepare for Board meetings. During the financial year ended 30 June 2021, 13 Board meetings were held. Typically, four face to face meetings would be held in Australia and one each in the UK, Asia and the Americas to align with the Group’s regional operations. In addition, three shorter meetings are scheduled to provide updates to the Board between the longer face to face meeting programs. Due to the mandatory travel and group meeting restrictions put in place in response to the COVID pandemic, from March 2020 onwards, the Board transitioned to enable virtual attendance at all Board and Committee meetings. Matters were also dealt with as required by circular resolution. From time to time special subcommittees were formed to give the Board better guidance and provide oversight concerning specific matters. During the reporting period, 10 Board subcommittee meetings were also constituted to deal with specific matters.

Sustainability Committee

The Sustainability Committee assists the Board to monitor the decisions and actions of management in achieving Lendlease’s aspiration to be a sustainable organisation. Sustainability is viewed as encompassing how Lendlease conducts business through the pursuit of workplace safety, a commitment to corporate social responsibility, environmentally sustainable solutions and employee diversity, development and opportunity. Lendlease is strategically and culturally committed to achieving commercial success in ways that honour ethical values and respect people, communities and the natural environment.

The five permanent Committees of the Board are:

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee assists the Board with its oversight responsibilities in relation to accounting policies and practices, tax matters, treasury reporting, monitoring of internal financial controls, internal and external audit functions and financial reporting of the Group.

Nomination Committee

People and Culture Committee

The Nomination Committee advises and supports the Board to fulfil its responsibilities to securityholders, certify that the Board is comprised of individuals who bring a mix of expertise, skills, experience and perspectives, and contribute to the discharge of diligent oversight and effective corporate governance of the Group. The Nomination Committee also oversees activities for Director development and oversees the reviews of Board, Committee and Director performance.

The People and Culture Committee assists the Board with its oversight responsibilities in relation to establishing people management, diversity and inclusion, talent and remuneration/ compensation policies for the Group.

Remuneration Report

Leadership transition and adjusted CEO remuneration

Message from the Board

The challenging operating conditions associated with COVID continued to have a negative impact across our global gateway cities (see the Performance and Outlook section on page 59 for further information).

Stephen McCann retired from the Board on 31 May 2021. This followed a 16 year career with the Group, including more than 12 years as Group Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director. After a comprehensive search process, the Board was pleased to announce the appointment of Anthony Lombardo to the Global CEO role from 1 June 2021.

Notwithstanding these challenges, there were notable achievements that supported the delivery of our Core operating profit result of $377 million after tax and continued progress on our strategic priorities. Management brought capital partners into a number of major urbanisation projects, built upon our Development pipeline, and launched new Investment products. Construction activity continued in all jurisdictions, albeit with reduced productivity due to social distancing requirements and the impact of lockdowns. The Group’s balance sheet and liquidity remain strong.

The transition to a new CEO provided the Board with an opportunity to reset remuneration quantum. The Global CEO’s Total Maximum Remuneration is 21 per cent lower than his predecessor. Remuneration without performance conditions (‘unhurdled’ remuneration) is 33 per cent lower, reflecting a lower fixed remuneration and the removal of the RSA. The mix of pay at maximum remains weighted toward equity based remuneration and the LTA continues to be delivered over a period of up to six years.

Our priority to protect the health and safety of our people, customers, subcontractors and other stakeholders remains a fundamental guiding principle, particularly in the current environment.

Following Stephen’s retirement, unvested equity awards were left on foot and remain subject to the original terms. Unvested equity awards that are subject to performance hurdles are currently unlikely to meet the required performance hurdles when they are tested. However, accounting standards require that all remaining expense for these awards be brought forward into FY21, resulting in a statutory remuneration disclosure that does not reflect what was earned during the period.

Given this context, framing appropriate remuneration outcomes for our people in FY21 has been particularly challenging.

Responding to your feedback

At the November 2020 Annual General Meeting we received a first strike, with 47 per cent of securityholders voting against the FY20 Remuneration Report. Feedback from proxy advisors and securityholders highlighted a number of concerns, including the quantum of CEO remuneration, elements of our Executive reward structure, and a view that the FY20 Deferred Equity Awards were not aligned with overall performance and the environment.

FY21 reward outcomes reflect our performance and environment

FY21 STA outcomes

In determining FY21 STA outcomes for Executives, the Board has considered performance of both financial and non financial indicators against the Group scorecard. The Board also considered the two subcontractor fatalities reported in FY21.

Although this outcome was disappointing, the Board has carefully considered stakeholder feedback and has taken the following actions to address key concerns:

After careful deliberation, and consideration of the following factors, the Board determined that the former Group CEO would not receive an STA payment for FY21:

  • Increased the transparency of Board decision making for determining Short Term Award (STA) outcomes, as well as formalising our guiding principles and process for remuneration decisions arising from safety incidents

  • Performance against the Group scorecard

  • The additional provisions for legacy Engineering projects

  • His positive contribution and support provided in the transition to the new CEO

  • Lowered the quantum of remuneration for the new Global CEO

  • The preliminary findings of the business review announced to the market on 16 August 2021 relating to Development projects.

  • Made changes to our Executive Reward Strategy from 1 July 2021:

  • Removed the Restricted Securities Award (RSA)

Other Executive STA outcomes ranged between 17 per cent and 40 per cent of their maximum opportunity, reflecting individual performance and in-year accountability relating to the overall Group result.

For more information refer to pages 100 to 103.

LTAs1 where performance has been assessed at the end of FY21

For LTAs subject to performance hurdles at the end of FY21, testing did not meet the required thresholds set by the Board and consequently there was nil vesting.

Chairman's FY22 fee reduction

Notwithstanding the solid operational and financial results across our Core business, the Board recognised the need for accountability in FY21 for the further provisions relating to the legacy Engineering business and the business review preliminary findings that have been announced in relation to the Development portfolio. Accordingly, in addition to the appropriate Executive accountability, on behalf of the Board, the Chairman will be taking a 20 per cent reduction in base fees for FY22.

Looking ahead

We are currently in a period of leadership transition. Following the appointment of our Global CEO and a comprehensive review of the business, we have reset our organisational structure, effective from 1 July 2021. Our aim is to drive and support consistent operations across regions, realise efficiencies, and place a greater focus on our competitive edge. At the same time, the operating environment remains challenging for our people as the impacts of COVID persist.

Through proactive and extensive engagement with stakeholders we will continue to listen to feedback about our remuneration structure and decision making. For FY22 the Board and Global CEO will review the STA scorecard structure, as this represents our first opportunity to make changes following the first strike against the FY20 Remuneration Report.

We look forward to informing you of our progress as part of our ongoing engagement.

Remuneration Framework Review

As highlighted in our FY20 Remuneration Report, a strategic review of our Executive Reward Strategy was scheduled for 2021. The Board expanded the scope of the review in light of the 2020 strike against the Remuneration Report. The focus has been for our approach to continue to evolve with the business and support the future success of Lendlease.

2020 Strike

At the 2020 Annual General Meeting, Lendlease securityholders signalled concerns with our current remuneration practices and decision making, delivering a first strike against the Remuneration Report. While disappointing, the feedback was considered carefully by the Board as we undertook a first principles review of our Executive Reward Strategy. Over the course of FY21, the Board has established a thorough process to gather and examine views:

Our review has considered securityholder views, as well as future strategic priorities, internal perspectives, and current/emerging market practice. This review culminated in the Board determining an amended approach, which has been adopted from 1 July 2021.

Key changes to our Executive Reward Strategy for FY22

FY22 Maximum Remuneration Mix

Maximum remuneration mix for the Global CEO and Executives is as follows:

The FY21 review culminated in the design of an amended Executive Reward Strategy for implementation in FY22. The amended structure was reflected in the appointment of Anthony Lombardo as our new Global CEO. The Board are pleased to note that the proposed changes have received positive feedback in our engagement with various stakeholders over the course of the year.

Change Rationale
----- End of picture text -----

Removal of RSA •Increases proportion of remuneration subject to performance
Implementation
of STA deferral
•Maintains focus on building Executive securityholdings and alignment with
securityholder experience
Grant LTA at maximum •Reduces complexity and increases transparency in disclosures
•Aligned with market practice so easily comparable
Recalibrate •Straight line vesting between threshold and maximum increases simplicity
LTA vesting schedule
Reset remuneration mix •Accounts for removal of RSA, and implementation of STA deferral
(increase STA, reduce LTA) •Acknowledges securityholder concerns around LTA maximum quantum
•Increases proportion of remuneration subject to performance
•Maintains long dated nature of Executive Reward Strategy, relative to market peers

The following diagram illustrates the structure of the FY22 Executive Reward Strategy:

Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5 Year 6 Fixed Base salary + Superannuation Remuneration (where applicable) 50 per cent Cash. 50 per cent Deferred Rights. Distribution STA equivalents paid on vested awards only (in cash or via equity top up) Performance Rights. Distribution LTA equivalents paid on vested awards only (in cash or via equity top up)

Appointment of new Global CEO

In FY21, Anthony Lombardo was appointed as our new Global CEO, effective 1 June 2021.

As announced to the market in February, the Board took this opportunity to rebase the Global CEO remuneration package to reflect both the current market and securityholder expectations, which applies from 1 June 2021:

Former Group CEO Global CEO
----- End of picture text -----

The Global CEO’s Total Maximum Remuneration is 21 per cent lower than his predecessor. Unhurdled remuneration is 33 per cent lower reflecting a reduced fixed remuneration and removal of the RSA. The cash/equity split remains weighted toward equity based remuneration.

For FY21, Anthony remained on the FY21 Executive Reward Strategy (per his CEO, Asia role), but Fixed Remuneration, STA opportunity and LTA were increased pro rata for the one month served as Global CEO.

Further detail will be provided on the new Executive Reward Strategy within the FY21 Notice of Meeting and the FY22 Remuneration Report

1. FY17 to FY20 reflects Statutory Profit after Tax and FY21 reflects Core Operating Profit after Tax. FY21 Statutory Profit after Tax was $222 million. 2. FY17 to FY20, reflects Statutory ROE which is calculated as the annual Statutory Profit after Tax attributable to securityholders divided by the arithmetic average of beginning half year and year end securityholders' equity. FY21 reflects Core Operating ROE which is calculated as annual Core Operating Profit after Tax attributable to securityholders divided by the arithmetic average of beginning half year and year end securityholders' equity. Core Operating ROE replaces Statutory ROE as an LTA hurdle as it better reflects the impact management have in creating value for securityholders. FY21 Statutory ROE was 3.2 per cent. 3. FY18 reflects 29 June 2018 closing security price and FY19 reflects 28 June 2019 closing security price. 4. 50 per cent paid as cash and 50 per cent deferred as securities. The deferred portion is released in two equal tranches after one and two years. 5. 100 per cent deferred as securities that is released in two equal tranches after one and two years.

1. The LTI / LTA grant value is the number of securities granted multiplied by the 1 September opening security price for the LTI / LTA grant year.

Definitions
Fixed Remuneration Includes the TPV / Base Salary plus superannuation (where applicable) received during FY21 and reflects the 20
per cent Fixed Remuneration reduction that applied from 1 July 2020 to 31 August 2020.
Previous years’ RSA Includes the RSA (previously referred to as the LTA Minimum) that was granted in September 2018 and reached
the end of the deferral period on 30 June 2021. The value reflects the number of securities multiplied by the grant
price. 25 per cent of this award value will be released in September 2021 and the remaining 75 per cent will be
released in three equal tranches in September 2022, 2023 and 2024, subject to malus provisions.
Previous years’ deferred
securities vested
Includes deferred securities that are not subject to hurdles such as sign on awards and the Distinguished
Executive Award. The value reflects the number of securities that vested in FY21 multiplied by the grant price.
FY21 STA awarded
Reflects the STA awarded in relation to FY21 performance. For Justin Gabbani and Frank Krile, 50 per cent of
the FY21 STA is paid as cash in September 2021 and 50 per cent is deferred as Rights that will be released in two
equal tranches after one and two years. For all other Executives, FY21 STA outcomes will be paid as 100 per cent
cash in September 2021.
Previous years’ LTI /LTA
awards
Includes the 2018 LTI (tranche 2) and 2019 LTA that reached the end of the performance period on 30 June 2021,
vesting in September 2021. The value reflects the number of securities scheduled to vest multiplied by the
grant price.
Security price growth /
decline
Includes the value of security price growth / decline between grant and 30 June 2021 for previous years' deferred
securities and between grant and 30 June 2021 for previous LTI / LTA awards. Also includes the value of the
distribution equivalent amounts paid as cash on the RSA.
Awards forfeited
or lapsed
The value reflects the maximum number of securities that were forfeited / lapsed in respect of FY21 multiplied by
the grant price plus the value of the forfeited portion of the maximum FY21 STA.

Fixed Remuneration

This section presents our approach to setting Fixed Remuneration.

Design How Fixed Remuneration Works Quantum •

• No remuneration increases were applied in FY21, except in the case where the Executive moved to a larger role within the Group

• Neil Martin’s Base Salary increased from £550,000 to £670,0001 effective from 1 September 2020, as part of the transition to the remuneration for the CEO, Europe role.

Benchmarking Approach •Quantum and remuneration mix are benchmarked to test that total remuneration remains
market competitive
•Annual review except in instance of role changes
•Considers the relative size, scale and complexity of roles to enable a fair comparison
•A target fixed and total remuneration position is established with reference to the market
median and 75th percentile
•Aim to provide total remuneration towards the 75th percentile if outstanding performance is
achieved.
Primary Sources of Data •The People & Culture Committee typically uses a number of sources for benchmarking
Global CEO and Executive remuneration including:
– Publicly available data for similar roles in companies of a similar size, such as:
–Revenue Group: ASX listed companies with revenue of between 50 and 200 per cent of
Lendlease’s revenue
–Market Capitalisation Group: ASX listed companies that are ranked between 26 and 75
by market capitalisation (excluding companies domiciled outside Australia)
– Publicly available data for comparable roles at:
–Property organisations in Australia such as Charter Hall Group, Dexus, Goodman Group,
GPT Group, Mirvac Group, Scentre Group, Stockland and Vicinity Centres
–Companies where we compete for talent, such as Macquarie Group Limited and AMP
Limited
– Published remuneration surveys, remuneration trends and other data sourced from
external providers.
Supplementary Peer
Group
•To supplement the above information, we also consider the following three companies as
comparators for Lendlease: Brambles Limited, British Land Company PLC and CapitaLand
Limited. These companies were identified as part of a review that was undertaken
during FY21 to determine which companies align with Lendlease based on quantitative
comparisons against key metrics such as profit, market capitalisation and scale of operations
as well as a qualitative overlay that considered the scope of business lines, employee base
and operating environment.

The Fixed Remuneration for Executive KMPs was temporarily reduced by 20 per cent from 1 May 2020 to 31 August 2020 as part of the Group’s response to COVID.

No Fixed Remuneration increases are proposed for FY22.

1. Remuneration is reported in AUD based on the 12 month average historic foreign exchange rates for FY21 (rounded to two decimal places): SGD 1.00 (applied to Anthony Lombardo and Justin Gabbani), USD 0.75 (applied to Denis Hickey) and GBP 0.55 (applied to Neil Martin). 2. Fixed Remuneration and FY21 STA cash awarded for Anthony Lombardo reflects time in the CEO, Asia role from 1 July 2020 to 31 May 2021 and time in the Global CEO role from 1 June 2021 to 30 June 2021. 3. Fixed Remuneration and FY21 STA cash awarded for Justin Gabbani reflects time as a KMP (1 June 2021 to 30 June 2021). 4. Fixed Remuneration and FY21 STA cash awarded for Frank Krile reflects time as a KMP (30 November 2020 to 30 June 2021). 5. Fixed Remuneration and FY21 STA cash awarded for Stephen McCann reflects time as a KMP (1 July 2020 to 31 May 2021). 6. Tarun Gupta resigned effective 29 November 2020. All unvested equity awards were forfeited upon resignation. Additionally, Tarun was not eligible for an STA award in FY21.

1. Fixed Remuneration for Neil Martin, converted to AUD based on the 12 month average historic foreign exchange rates for FY21 (GBP 0.55), has increased from $1,000,000 to $1,218,182 effective from 1 September 2020.

Global CEO - Market Comparison

When setting the remuneration for the new Global CEO, the Board considered current market data in line with Lendlease’s established remuneration benchmarking approach (as outlined on page 97). This analysis demonstrated that the proposed remuneration quantum was aligned to our target market position, except for the positioning of Fixed Remuneration against the Revenue comparator group, which was below the median. The graph below summarises the market positioning of the new Global CEO’s Fixed Remuneration and Maximum Total Remuneration against the Revenue and Market Capitalisation comparator groups.

----- End of picture text -----

Remuneration was set toward the top of the target range for the Select Real Estate companies comparator group for both Fixed Remuneration and Maximum Total Remuneration.

The Board felt that the new Global CEO’s remuneration quantum was appropriate when considering the size and complexity of the Group’s operations relative to the companies within the comparator groups. Additionally, the reduction in quantum compared to the prior incumbent was consistent with market practice when considering recent new CEO appointments.

Restricted Securities Award (RSA)

This section presents a summary of the key features of the RSA plan.

==> picture [511 x 22] intentionally omitted <==

----- Start of picture text -----

Design How the RSA Works
----- End of picture text -----

Eligibility •Group CEO, Global CEO and Executives
Quantum •The RSA quantum is equivalent to:
– Global CEO: 45% of Fixed Remuneration (including 11 months’ opportunity relating to
the CEO, Asia role, and one month relating to the Global CEO role, pro rata)
– Former Group CEO: 23% of Fixed Remuneration
– Executives: 34% - 42% of Fixed Remuneration
Delivery •Rights to acquire securities, subject to continued tenure
•Award may be settled in cash at the Board’s discretion
Determining the
number of Rights
•Face value: volume weighted average price (VWAP) of stapled securities traded on the ASX
over the 20 trading days prior to the release of the full year results preceding the grant date
Deferral Period •Released in four equal tranches at the end of Y3, Y4, Y5 and Y6
Distributions •Distribution equivalent amounts are paid as cash during the deferral period

Short Term Award (STA)

This section presents the key features of the STA plan.

From FY22, 50 per cent of awarded STA will be deferred as Rights to receive Lendlease securities. The deferred portion will be released in two equal tranches after one and two years.

To offset the removal of the RSA, and the introduction of deferral, Maximum STA opportunity has been increased (excluding the Global CEO).

==> picture [512 x 24] intentionally omitted <==

----- Start of picture text -----

Design How the STA Works
----- End of picture text -----

Eligibility •Group CEO, Global CEO and Executives
Quantum •For FY21, target STA opportunity was as follows:

CEO, Asia role, and one month relating to the Global CEO role, pro rata)
– Former Group CEO: 55% of Fixed Remuneration
1
– Executives: 40% - 75% of Fixed Remuneration
•The minimum possible STA outcome is zero
•The maximum STA outcome is limited to 150% of target opportunity
2
Funding •The Board determines the pool of funds to be made available to reward Executives, with
reference to Group financial and non financial performance
•The Board examines safety performance and the overall health of the business (including a
broader set of metrics around origination, sustainability and how we have managed risk)
Key Performance •Global CEO and Executive scorecards, including:
Indicators – 50% Financial Performance (earnings, profit, margin, cash flow, and return measures)
– 50% Non Financial Performance (safety, sustainability, risk, people, customer and
strategic measures)
Refer to pages 100 and 101 for a summary of the FY21 Group/Global CEO scorecard
•Lendlease is committed to the safety and wellbeing of all of its employees. While the
assessment is not structured formulaically or as a ‘gateway’ measure, poor health and safety
outcomes may lead to a reduction in STA outcomes for the year
•The People & Culture Committee considers feedback from multiple sources to consider ‘how’
performance outcomes are achieved:
– Group Chief Financial Officer
– Group Chief Risk Officer
– The Audit Committee
– The Risk Committee
– The Sustainability Committee

•Paid in September following the assessment of performance

Going forward, the RSA has been removed from the Executive Reward Strategy for FY22.

Executives who were appointed during FY21 (Justin Gabbani and Frank Krile) were not eligible for an RSA.

1. The FY21 STA target opportunity for Stephen McCann reflects time in KMP role (1 July 2020 to 31 May 2021). 2 . The FY21 maximum STA is 139 per cent of STA target opportunity for the Global CEO for the period from 1 June 21 to 30 June 21. 3. For Justin Gabbani and Frank Krile, 50 per cent of the FY21 STA is paid as cash in September 2021 and 50 per cent is deferred as Rights that will be released in two equal tranches after one and two years.

Impact of safety incidents on FY21 STA outcomes

We are deeply saddened to report that two fatalities occurred in FY21.

We go beyond regulatory reporting requirements and report all fatalities on our sites as we do not consider the lives of subcontractors and community members as any different to our employees.

In line with the guiding principles for determining remuneration adjustments arising from safety incidents set out on page 112, the key factors considered by the Board when determining whether a remuneration adjustment should be made for the fatalities that occurred during FY21 are:

  • Safety leadership and safety performance metrics have been of a consistently high standard for the duration of the project and in the business unit over the past four years.

  • Curtin University, Perth, • The Board was satisfied based on material from internal and external sources made available at the time

  • Western Australia that Lendlease had met the standards set out in its GMRs which are generally set at an equivalent or higher standard than those of local regulators.

  • Safety leadership and safety performance metrics have been of a consistently high standard for the duration of the project and in the business unit over the past four years.

  • Setia City Mall Phase 2 • The findings from the external investigation conducted by the Malaysian authorities confirmed that

  • project in Malaysia Lendlease is not a party of interest.

Based on an assessment of the above factors and material available at the time, the Board has determined that no adjustment would be made to FY21 STA outcomes as a result of the fatalities, noting that if new information emerges from external investigations, the Board can reduce future STA outcomes or apply a malus adjustment.

Business review and impact on FY21 STA outcomes

The Board considered all of the material made available at the time of determining FY21 STA outcomes, including any identified risks, to establish if there should be any impact on FY21 STA outcomes, unvested equity awards, or both. This included the preliminary findings of the business review advised to the market on 16 August 2021. Following their review, the Board determined it appropriate that any adjustments be made to FY21 STA outcomes only to reflect accountability and impact on the overall group result.

The following table outlines the FY21 STA opportunity and outcomes for each Executive.

From FY22, LTA awards will be granted at maximum opportunity (rather than target). Accordingly, the vesting schedules will be recalibrated to reflect this change and a straight line vesting approach will be adopted for added simplicity.

Maximum LTA quantum has been reduced in line with broader changes to the Executive remuneration mix.

Lin
Rationale
•TSR incentivises Executives to
deliver returns that outperform
what a securityholder could
achieve in the market and
promotes management to
maintain a strong focus on
securityholder outcomes
•Operating ROE reflects the
capital intensive nature of
Lendlease’s activities and is an
important long term measure
of how well the management
team generates acceptable
earnings from capital invested
and rewards decisions in
respect of developing,
managing, acquiring and
disposing of assets
•Operating ROE replaces
Statutory ROE as it
better reflects the impact
management have in creating
value for securityholders
•CAGR % in FUM recognises the
importance of growth in FUM
to achieving our key strategic
objective of increasing our
Investments platform globally
which will be achieved through
our internal development
pipeline, creating new products,
using value add strategies
and through external market
acquisitions
Definition •TSR is measured by the growth
in security price and any
dividends/distributions paid
during the performance period
•Operating ROE is calculated
as the Group’s Operating
Profit After Tax divided by
the arithmetic average of
beginning, half and year end
securityholders’ equity
•Performance is based on
the average Operating ROE
results over the three year
performance period
•CAGR % in FUM is calculated as
the compounded annual growth
rate of Lendlease’s funds under
management over the three year
performance period
Target Setting •TSR is measured against
companies that comprise
the Standard & Poor’s (S&P)/
Australian Securities Exchange
(ASX) 100 index
•Target is reviewed annually
and is set with reference to the
Group’s Portfolio Management
Framework
•Operating ROE target aims to
drive outperformance without
incentivising excessive risk
taking
•The Board believes that the
vesting range provides a
realistic goal at the lower end
and a stretch at the upper end
•The Board is conscious of the
impact that debt can have on
the Operating ROE result and
has governance protocols in
place to monitor this
•Target is reviewed annually
and is set with reference to the
Group’s operating plan

Executive Service Agreements

Former Group CEO

As announced to the market on 10 February 2021, Stephen McCann retired from the Board on 31 May 2021, following a 16 year career with the Group, including more than 12 years as Group Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director.

An overview of key terms of employment for current Executives is provided below:

Contract Term Global CEO Group Head of Construction Other Executives
Contract type Permanent Permanent Permanent
Notice period by
Lendlease
12 months 12 months1 6 months
Notice period by
executive
12 months 6 months 6 months

All Executives have termination benefits that are within the limit allowed by the Corporations Act 2001 without securityholder approval. Specifically, in the case where the Executive is not employed for the full period of notice, a payment in lieu of notice may be made.

Treatment of unvested awards depends on the reason for termination:

Termination payment

  • Terminated for cause: Awards lapse

  • Terminated for poor performance: Board discretion

  • Resignation (engaged in activities that are competitive with the Group): Awards lapse

  • ‘Good leavers’: Awards remain on foot subject to the original vesting conditions.

Contractual payment in lieu of notice was provided in line with his employment agreement. Stephen was entitled to receive a payment in lieu of the balance of his notice period ($1,900,385).

After careful deliberation the Board assessed Stephen McCann’s performance for FY21 and determined that he would not receive an STA payment.

In line with the relevant Plan rules, all unvested equity awards were left on foot (including FY20 Deferred Equity Award, 2018 LTI, 2019/2020/2021 LTAs, 2021 RSA1). Each of these awards remains subject to the original terms and performance conditions, and will be tested at the relevant testing date.

Former Executives

Tarun Gupta

Tarun Gupta resigned effective from 29 November 2020. All unvested equity awards were forfeited upon resignation. Additionally, Tarun was not entitled to an STA award in FY21. In light of Tarun’s move to Stockland Group, he was placed on gardening leave until 31 May 2021.

David Andrew Wilson

David Andrew Wilson announced his retirement during FY21, effective 2 July 2021. David Andrew remained a KMP for the full financial year. In line with the relevant Plan rules, all unvested equity awards will remain on foot, subject to the original performance conditions, and will be tested at the relevant testing date. With regard to the final tranche of the Distinguished Equity Award, the Board elected to exercise its discretion to retain the full award on foot (not pro rata).

New Executive Appointments in FY21

Frank Krile

Frank Krile was appointed as the Acting Chief Financial Officer from 30 November 2020. While acting in the Chief Financial Officer role, Frank received an additional cash allowance.

No changes were made to Frank’s STA opportunity for the period that he was acting in the Chief Financial Officer role.

Justin Gabbani

Justin Gabbani was appointed as the Chief Executive Officer, Asia from 1 June 2021. Justin’s Maximum Total Remuneration was set in line with the FY22 Executive Remuneration Strategy approach and is as follows:

A$’0004

Fixed Remuneration Maximum STA5 Maximum LTA Maximum Total Remuneration
800 1,120 1,440 3,360

The Maximum STA and Maximum LTA do not apply until FY22. For FY21, no changes were made to Justin's STA opportunity to reflect his appointment to the Chief Executive Officer, Asia role.

1. Johannes Dekker’s contract allows for 12 months’ notice by Lendlease for the first four years of employment and reverts to 6 months’ notice by Lendlease thereafter. 2. Denis Hickey’s notice payment is based on base salary and other minimum benefits as required by applicable United States legislation.

The 2021 LTI is a non KMP award and has the same performance hurdles and performance period as the 2021 LTA however 100 per cent of the award vests and is released after the three year performance period. Refer to Note 35 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further details. 4. Remuneration is reported in AUD based on the 12 month average historic foreign exchange rates for FY21 (SGD 1.00). 5. 50 per cent of STA is deferred.

Non Executive Director Fee Policy

Non Executive Directors’ fees

Remuneration Governance and Risk Management

Robust governance is a critical part of Lendlease’s approach to executive remuneration. The diagram below illustrates the roles various stakeholders play in making remuneration decisions at Lendlease:

The maximum aggregate remuneration payable to Non Executive Directors is $3.5 million per year, as approved at the 2015 Annual General Meeting.

Board and committee fees

Non Executive Directors receive a Board fee and fees for chairing or participating on Board committees:

Board and committee fees are paid as cash. Superannuation contributions are paid in addition to the Board and committee fees outlined above in accordance with superannuation legislation and are capped at the Maximum Superannuation Contribution Base.

Non Executive Directors are not entitled to retirement benefits other than superannuation.

There were no increases to Non Executive Director fees during FY21.

Recognising the recent performance of the Group, in particular the further provisions relating to the legacy engineering business and the potential business review outcomes relating to the development portfolio, on behalf of the Board, the Chairman volunteered to take a 20 per cent reduction in base fees for FY22 to reflect the accountability in his position as Board Chair.

Travel Fees

Board meetings are scheduled in Australia and in each of the regions where Lendlease operates. As an international company, the Board program is formulated to reflect the geographic spread of the Lendlease businesses. Generally, the program runs over three to five days and includes a number of activities outside the formal meeting. These include business briefings, presentations from external sources, project site visits, client meetings, and networking events with employees and key stakeholders. Where deeper project reviews are required, the program may take up to five days.

The program is an important element of the Board’s activities to enable the Non Executive Directors to obtain the required deep understanding of operations across the Group.

Where significant additional time has been spent travelling to fulfil the requirements of the program, fees are paid to compensate Non Executive Directors for the extra time commitment:

A$ Fee (Each Way)
Travel less than 4 hours
Travel between 4 and 10 hours
Travel over 10 hours
Nil
2,800
6,06,000

Although the number of hours worked has increased, Non Executive Director fees are lower in 2021 compared to 2020 predominantly as a result of Non Executive Directors electing to take a temporary base fee reduction of 20 per cent from 1 June 2021 to 31 August 20212 and no travel fees being paid due to the global travel restrictions in place as a result of COVID.

  • As the facts and circumstances surrounding each incident are unique, decision making is not prescriptive or formulaic and requires the application of judgement.

  • To facilitate a consistent approach to decision making, rather than the application of a consistent outcome, the following set of relevant factors are used by the Board to evaluate the application of any remuneration adjustments to be made arising from safety incidents:

How is safety leadership demonstrated in the relevant business Safety Leadership / project? How has the relevant business / project performed against Safety Performance safety performance indicators? In the event of a fatality, what was Lendlease's role based on Findings internal investigations? As events unfold over time, has new and pertinent information Availability of new information emerged from external investigations?

1. 2021 remuneration is reported in AUD based on the 12 month average historic foreign exchange rates for FY21 (rounded to two decimal places): SGD 1.00 (applied to Anthony Lombardo and Justin Gabbani), USD 0.75 (applied to Denis Hickey) and GBP 0.55 (applied to Neil Martin). 2020 remuneration is reported in AUD based on the 12 month average historic foreign exchange rates for FY20 (rounded to two decimal places): SGD 0.93 (applied to Anthony Lombardo and Justin Gabbani), USD 0.67 (applied to Denis Hickey) and GBP 0.53 (applied to Neil Martin and Daniel Labbad). All Executives are paid in local currency. 2. Cash Salary includes the payment of cash allowances such as motor vehicle allowance and the value of distribution equivalent amounts paid as cash on the RSA. For Anthony Lombardo, this also includes tax equalisation payments. For Neil Martin and Daniel Labbad, this also includes cash allowances paid in lieu of pension contributions. Cash salary also reflects the 20 per cent Fixed Remuneration reduction that applied from 1 July 2020 to 31 August 2020 as part of the Group’s response to COVID. 3. STA Cash refers to the portion of the FY21 STA which is payable as cash in September 2021. For Justin Gabbani and Frank Krile, this reflects 50 per cent of the FY21 STA as 50 percent is deferred as Rights that will be released in two equal tranches after one and two years. For all other Executives, this reflects 100 per cent of the FY21 STA. 4. Non monetary benefits may include items such as car parking, relocation and expatriate benefits (such as house rental, health insurance, shipping of goods and tax return preparation), motor vehicle costs, travel benefits and annual leave. 5 . Superannuation includes the value of insurance premiums funded by Lendlease for Australian Executives who are members of the Lendlease default superannuation fund. 6. Other Long Term Benefits represents the accrual of long term leave entitlements (e.g. long service leave). 7. Security based payments reflect the accounting expense on a fair value basis. For all Executives other than Neil Martin, security based payments are issued as indeterminate rights and performance rights. For Neil Martin, Deferred STI (including his Executive Deferred Award) is issued as securities. LTI/LTA includes the accounting expense for the RSA. 8. Remuneration for Anthony Lombardo has been prorated to reflect time in the CEO, Asia role from 1 July 2020 to 31 May 2021 and time in the Global CEO role from 1 June 2021 to 30 June 2021. 9. Justin Gabbani was appointed to the CEO, Asia role on 1 June 2021 and remuneration reflects time as a KMP. 10. Frank Krile was appointed to the Acting Group Financial Officer role from 30November 2020 and remuneration reflects time as a KMP. 11. Neil Martin was appointed to the Chief Executive Officer, Europe role on 10 September 2019 and his 2020 comparative remuneration reflects time as a KMP. 12. Stephen McCann retired from the Group CEO role on 31 May 2021 and remuneration reflects time as a KMP. 13. Tarun Gupta resigned effective 29 November 2020 and remuneration reflects time as a KMP. All unvested equity awards were forfeited upon resignation. Additionally, Tarun was not eligible for an STA award in FY21. 14. Daniel Labbad ceased as a KMP on 9 September 2019 and remuneration reflects time as a KMP. 15. As a ‘Good Leaver’, unvested LTI, LTA and Deferred STI awards remain on foot and subject to the original vesting conditions. The security based payment accounting expense for the current period therefore includes up to three years of each unvested award expense that has been accelerated and disclosed in total for FY21, including those amounts which would otherwise have been included in future year disclosures.

The full accounting expense over

expense of $5.733m relating
to unvested LTI/LTA awards
retained by Stephen McCann,
$1.226m is for awards that have
no further performance hurdles,
but are still subject to time based
deferrals. $5.826m (2020 LTA
+ 2021 LTA) relates to unvested
LTA awards that are currently
forecast as unlikely to meet the
required performance hurdles,
and accordingly this amount
is expected to be reversed to
reserves in future periods.

End of deferral / performance period Unhurdled Hurdled

The SBP accounting expense for Stephen McCann and David Andrew Wilson has been accelerated as a result of their retirement. This means that up to three years of the accounting expense for each unvested award, that would have ordinarily been included in future year disclosures, has been reflected in the FY21 SBP value.

All unvested equity awards that remain on foot following retirement are still subject to the original performance conditions and will be tested at the relevant testing date. Depending on performance, these awards may have nil value.

To the extent these awards do not vest when tested, the accounting expense that has been previously booked will be reversed.

Refer to page 96 for the Total Remuneration Realised by Executives in FY21.

1. Mandatory securityholding requirements are reviewed in August each year. As part of the Group’s response to COVID, Denis Hickey requested a temporary release from the applicable mandatory securityholding requirement and the reduced mandatory securityholding requirement (50 per cent of the original mandatory securityholding requirement) has been reflected for 2020. 2. For Executives, securities received relate to security entitlements under employee benefit vehicles. 3. Under the RSA (LTA Minimum), performance rights will vest over a period of up to six years. This number of performance rights counts towards mandatory securityholding requirements. 4. Stephen McCann ceased as a KMP on 31 May 2021. The end balance of securities for 2021 represents the balance held at that date. 5. Tarun Gupta ceased as a KMP on 29 November 2020. The end balance of securities for 2021 represents the balance held at that date. 6. Daniel Labbad ceased as a KMP on 9 September 2019. The end balance of securities for 2020 represents the balance held at that date.

1. The fair value at grant date is the value of the Deferred STI award (as advised to the executive). 2. Johannes Dekker received a sign on award reflecting remuneration foregone on resignation from his previous employer. The award is split into three tranches and has vested, or will vest, during the first, second and third years of his employment. 3. Justin Gabbani was appointed to the CEO, Asia role on 1 June 2021 and the expense for the year ended 30 June 2021 reflects time in KMP role. 4. Frank Krile was appointed to the Acting Group Financial Officer role from 30 November 2020 and the expense for the year ended 30 June 2021 reflects time in KMP role. 5. The Deferred Equity Awards was forfeited upon resignation. 6. For LTA awards, the number granted reflects target opportunity. For LTI and other long term awards, the number granted reflects maximum opportunity (158 per cent of target for the former Group CEO and 245 per cent of target for other Executives). From FY22, LTA awards will be granted at maximum opportunity (rather than target) in line with stakeholder feedback. 7. The fair value at grant date represents an actuarial valuation of the award, including the RSA (LTA Minimum), using assumptions underlying the Black-Scholes methodology to produce a Monte-Carlo simulation model in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards rounded to two decimal places. 8. Johannes Dekker received a retention award relating to the strategic review of the Engineering and Services businesses.

1. For LTA awards, the number granted reflects target opportunity. For LTI and other long term awards, the number granted reflects maximum opportunity. From FY22, LTA awards will be granted at maximum opportunity (rather than target) in line with stakeholder feedback. 2.

Purchase of Lendlease securities by Non Executive Directors

The current Non Executive Directors acquired Lendlease securities using their own funds.

Loans to KMP

No loans were made to KMP or their related parties during the current year or prior year.

Other transactions with KMP

From time to time, Directors and Executives of Lendlease or its consolidated entities, or parties related to them, may purchase goods from the Consolidated Entity. These purchases are on terms and conditions no more favourable that those entered into by unrelated customers.

1. Elizabeth Proust also acquired $500,000 of green bonds. 2. As Robert Welanetz was appointed as a Non Executive Director on 1 March 2020 a nil opening balance has been shown for the 2020 comparative. 3. Colin Carter ceased to be a Non Executive Director on 20 November 2020. The end balance of securities for 2021 represents the balance held at that date. 4. Steve Dobbs ceased to be a Non Executive Director on 20 November 2019. The end balance of securities for 2020 represents the balance held at that date. 5. Baroness Margaret Ford was appointed as a Non Executive Director on 1 March 2020 and ceased to be a Non Executive Director on 18 August 2020. The end balance of securities for 2021 represents the balance held at that date. 6. The 2021 opening balance excludes the securities held by Steve Dobbs (12,000) given that he ceased to be a Non Executive Director in the 2020 financial year.

Directors’ Report

The Directors’ Report for the financial year ended 30 June 2021 has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 . The information below forms part of this Directors’ Report:

  • Principal activities on page 13

  • Operating and Financial Review on pages 4 to 69 incorporating the Performance and Outlook on pages 56 to 69

  • Biographical information for the Directors and Company Secretary on pages 72 to 76

  • Officers who were previously partners of the audit firm on page 72

  • Directors’ interests in capital on page 82

  • Board and committee meetings and attendance on pages 82 to 83

  • Remuneration Report on pages 84 to 121

  • Lead Auditor’s Independence Declaration on page 124.

a. Dividends/Distributions

The 2020 final distribution of $22 million (3.3 cents per security, unfranked) referred to in the Directors’ Report dated 17 August 2020 was paid on 15 September 2020. Details of dividends/distributions in respect of the current year are as follows:

Total dividends/distributions 186

1. Comprised of a dividend component franked to 50 per cent of 11.2 cents per share paid by the Company and an unfranked trust distribution of 3.8 cents per unit paid by Lendlease Trust. 2. Comprised of an unfranked dividend of 7.9 cents per share to be paid by the Company and an unfranked trust distribution of 4.1 cents per unit to be paid by Lendlease Trust.

b. Significant Changes in State of Affairs

There have been no significant changes in the Group’s state of affairs.

c. Events Subsequent to Balance Date

On 21 July 2021, the Group entered into an agreement with Service Stream for the sale of the Services business for a purchase price of $310 million. The transaction, which is expected to complete prior to the end of calendar year 2021, is subject to conditions including client and third party consents. Given the agreement was signed post balance date and at 30 June 2021 there was uncertainty as to whether a transaction would be completed, the Services business did not meet the accounting criteria to be held for sale, therefore it has not been included in discontinued operations or assets and liabilities classified as held for sale at 30 June 2021. The sale, and any resulting gain/loss after transaction costs and completion adjustments, is expected to be recorded in the subsequent financial year. The sale price is above the net assets of the Services business at 30 June 2021. Any gain/loss will be subject to the completion accounts process, final transaction costs and any required provisions for indemnifications.

On 16 August 2021, the Group announced the preliminary results of the business review undertaken following the appointment of the new Global CEO. While the review is still ongoing at the date of this report, the Group expects to record an estimated restructuring provision in FY22 of pre-tax $130 million to $170 million for the restructuring costs associated with the revised organisational structure and related matters. As part of this exercise, the Group has also identified a small number of projects where a material change in development strategy is under consideration. A range of alternative strategic options are being considered to reduce future capital outlay and/or expedite the release of existing capital on these projects to enable redeployment elsewhere. The expected change in forecast strategy for these projects is expected to result in an estimated development properties impairment of approximately pre-tax $230 million to $290 million in FY22.

There were no other material events subsequent to the end of the financial reporting period.

d. Security Options

No security options were issued during the year by the Company or any of its controlled entities, and there are no such options on issue.

e. Indemnification and Insurance of Directors and Officers

Rule 12 of the Company’s Constitution provides for indemnification in favour of each of the Directors named on pages 72 to 76 of this report and the officers of the Company or of wholly owned subsidiaries or related entities of the Company (Officers) to the extent permitted by the Corporations Act 2001 . Rule 12 does not indemnify a Director, Company Secretary or Officer for any liability involving a lack of good faith.

In conformity with Rule 12 of the Company’s Constitution, the Company has entered into Deeds of Indemnity, Insurance and Access with each of the Directors named on pages 72 to 76 of this report and for officers of the Company and Directors of related entities of the Company. The indemnities operate to the full extent permitted by law and are not subject to a monetary limit. The Company is not aware of any liability having arisen, and no claims have been made during or since the financial year under the Deeds of Indemnity, Insurance and Access.

In accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , Rule 12 of the Constitution also permits the Company to purchase and maintain insurance or pay or agree to pay a premium for insurance for Officers against any liability incurred as an Officer of the Company or of a related body corporate. This may include a liability for reasonable costs and expenses incurred in defending proceedings, whether civil or criminal, regardless of their outcome. Due to confidentiality obligations and undertakings of the policy, no further details in respect of the premium or policy can be disclosed.

f. Environmental Regulation

The Group is subject to various state and federal environmental regulations in Australia.

The Directors are not aware of any material non compliance with environmental regulations pertaining to the operations or activities during the period covered by this report. In addition, the Lendlease Group is registered and publicly reports the annual performance of its Australian operations under the requirements of the National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting (NGER) Act 2007 and Energy Efficiency Opportunities (EEO) Act 2006.

All Lendlease businesses continue to operate an integrated Environment, Health and Safety Management System, ensuring that non compliance risks and opportunities for environmental improvements are identified, managed and reported accordingly.

g. Non Audit Services

During the year, KPMG, the Company’s auditor, performed certain other services in addition to its statutory duties.

The Board has considered the other services provided during the year by the auditor and, in accordance with written advice provided by resolution of the Audit Committee, is satisfied that the provision of those services during the year by the auditor is compatible with, and did not compromise, the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reason:

  • All other services were subject to the corporate governance procedures adopted by the Group and the Audit Committee is satisfied that those services do not impact the integrity and objectivity of the auditor.

The other 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 the Group, acting as an advocate for the Group or jointly sharing risks and rewards.

A copy of the Lead Auditor's Independence Declaration, as required under Section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 , is included at the end of the Directors’ Report.

Details of the amounts paid to the auditor of the Company, KPMG, and its related practices for audit and other services provided during the year are set out below:

Lendlease Corporation Limited (the Company) is incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The consolidated financial report of the Company for the financial year ended 30 June 2021 comprises the Company and its controlled entities including Lendlease Trust (LLT) (together referred to as the consolidated entity or the Group). The Group is a for profit entity and is an international property and investments group. Further information about the Group’s primary activities is included in Note 1 ‘Segment Reporting’.

Shares in the Company and units in LLT are traded as one security under the name of Lendlease Group on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX). The Company is deemed to control LLT for accounting purposes and therefore LLT is consolidated into the Group’s financial report. The issued units of LLT, however, are not owned by the Company and are therefore presented separately in the consolidated entity Statement of Financial Position within equity, notwithstanding that the unitholders of LLT are also the shareholders of the Company.

The consolidated financial report was authorised for issue by the Directors on 16 August 2021.

The accompanying notes form part of these consolidated financial statements.

Refer to the specific accounting policies within the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for the basis of valuation of assets and liabilities measured at fair value.

Significant accounting policies have been:

  • Included in the relevant notes to which the policies relate, while other significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 37 ‘Other Significant Accounting Policies’

  • Consistently applied to all financial years presented in the consolidated financial statements and by all entities in the Group, except as explained in Note 36 ‘Impact of New and Revised Accounting Standards’.

The preparation of a financial report that complies with AASBs requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions.

  • This can affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates

  • Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to estimates are recognised prospectively

  • The significant accounting policies highlight information about accounting judgements in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effects on reported amounts and further information about estimated uncertainties that have a significant risk of resulting in material adjustments within the next financial year

  • These significant accounting estimates and judgements have been considered in the context of the ongoing COVID outbreak and the impact of the current economic conditions.

The Group presents assets and liabilities in the Statement of Financial Position as current or non current.

  • Current assets include assets held primarily for trading purposes, cash and cash equivalents, and assets expected to be realised in, or intended for sale or use in, the course of the Group’s operating cycle or within the next 12 months. All other assets are classified as non current

  • Current liabilities include liabilities held primarily for trading purposes, liabilities expected to be settled in the course of the Group’s operating cycle and those liabilities due within one year from the reporting date. All other liabilities are classified as non current.

At 30 June 2021, the Group is in a net current deficit (current liabilities exceeds current assets) but does not anticipate a significant liquidity risk in the next 12 months. This is due to the Group’s strong financial profile, which includes significant committed undrawn facilities and low gearing ratios.

The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis. In preparing the financial statements, including assessing the going concern basis of accounting, the Group has considered the ongoing COVID pandemic.

The Group has:

  • $3,268 million in undrawn facilities. See Note 16 ‘Borrowings and Financing Arrangements’

  • $1,662 million in cash and cash equivalents. See Note 14 ‘Cash and Cash Equivalents’

  • Net positive cash inflow from operating activities in FY21. See Statement of Cash Flows.

Following this assessment, the Group is well placed to manage its financing and future commitments over the next 12 months from the date of the financial statements.

  1. Balances include cash flows relating to both continuing and discontinued operations. Net cash flows relating to discontinued operations have been disclosed in Note 33 ‘Discontinued Operations’.

The accompanying notes form part of these consolidated financial statements.

Section A: Performance

In addition to the statutory result, Operating Earnings before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation (Operating EBITDA) and Operating Profit after Tax (Operating PAT) are the key measures used to assess the Group’s performance. This section of the Financial Report focuses on disclosure that enhances a user’s understanding of Operating EBITDA and Operating PAT. Segment Reporting below provides a breakdown of profit and revenue by the operational activity. The key line items of the Income Statement, along with their components, provide detail behind the reported balances. Group performance will also impact the earnings per stapled security and dividend payout, therefore disclosure on these items has been included in this section. Further information and analysis on performance and allocation of resources can be found in the Performance and Outlook section of the Directors’ Report.

1. Segment Reporting

Accounting Policies

The Group’s segments are Development, Construction, Investments and Non core. The Group has identified these operating segments based on the distinct products and services provided by each segment, the distinct target return profile and allocation of resources for each segment, and internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Global Chief Executive Officer (the Chief Operating Decision Maker) in assessing performance, determining the allocation of resources, setting operational targets, and managing the Group.

The Group has arranged the segments around business activity rather than geography due to the Group’s business model being broadly consistent in all regions.

On 31 August 2020, the Group announced a strategy update and that Management would report Operating EBITDA and Operating PAT as its primary earnings metrics going forward, in addition to the statutory result. Operating PAT is defined as Statutory profit adjusted for non-cash backed property related revaluation increases or decreases of Investment property, Other financial assets and Equity accounted investments that are classified in the Investments segment, and other non-cash adjustments or non-recurring items such as impairment losses relating to goodwill and other intangibles. Operating EBITDA is before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortisation.

The Chief Operating Decision Maker receives information and assesses segment performance under these metrics. Operating EBITDA and Operating PAT are used to measure performance as management believes that such information is the most relevant in evaluating the results of certain reportable segments relative to other entities that operate within these industries. The Group does not consider corporate activities to be an operating segment.

The operating segments are as follows:

Development

Operates in all four geographic regions. Its products and services include the development of inner city mixed use developments, apartments, communities, retirement, retail, commercial assets and social and economic infrastructure. Construction margin earned on development projects is recognised in this segment.

Construction

Operates across all four geographic regions. Its products and services include the provision of project management, design and construction services, predominantly in the commercial, residential, mixed use, defence and social infrastructure sectors.

Investments

Operates across all four geographic regions. Services include owning and/or managing investments across all four geographic regions. The segment includes an investment management platform and the Group’s ownership interests in residential, office, retail, industrial, retirement and infrastructure investment assets.

Non core

Non core includes the provision of project management, design and construction services in the Australian infrastructure sector. These products and services represent the retained Engineering projects and Services business. The discontinued operations referenced throughout the financial statements are included in this segment. Discontinued operations represent the Engineering business sold, excluding the projects retained by the Group. Refer to Note 33 ‘Discontinued Operations’ for further detail.

Financial information regarding the performance of each reportable segment and a reconciliation of these reportable segments to the financial statements are included below:

The December 2020 interim distribution and the June 2020 interim/final dividends/distributions were not franked.

  2. No provision for this dividend has been recognised in the Statement of Financial Position at 30 June 2021, as it was declared after the end of the reporting period.

  3. No final dividend was declared for the Company for 30 June 2020.

Dividend Franking

The amount of franking credits available for use in subsequent reporting periods as at 30 June 2021 is $7 million, based on a 30 per cent tax rate (30 June 2020: $17 million). This is calculated after adjusting for franking credits which are expected to arise from the payment of income tax provided in the financial statements and tax losses utilised in the current financial year.

Accounting Policies

Provision of Construction and Development services

Construction services include project management, design and construction services predominantly in the defence, mixed use, commercial and residential sectors. Development services include development fees earned on development of inner city mixed use developments, retirement, retail, commercial assets and social and economic infrastructure.

Contracts with customers to provide Construction or Development services can include either one performance obligation or multiple performance obligations within each contract. The Group assesses each of its contracts individually and where there are separate performance obligations identified, the transaction price is allocated based on the relative standalone selling prices of the services provided. Typically, the Construction or Development services in contracts are not considered distinct as the services are highly interrelated and an integrated bundle of services and therefore are accounted for as a single performance obligation.

The transaction price for each contract may include variable consideration in the form of contract variations or modifications, and contract claims (collectively, ‘Modifications’). Variable consideration may also include performance or other incentive fees. The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer per the contract.

Variable consideration is only included in the transaction price for a contract to the extent it is highly probable that a significant reversal of that revenue will not occur, which is an area of accounting judgement. Factors considered in assessing whether the estimated revenue associated with Modifications should be recognised include the following:

  • i. Status of negotiations with customers

  • ii. The contract or other evidence provides a legal basis for the Modifications

  • iii. Additional costs incurred were caused by circumstances that were unforeseen at the contract date and for which entitlement contractually exists

  • iv. Modification related costs are identifiable, measurable, and considered reasonable in view of the work performed

  • v. Evidence supporting the Modification is objective and verifiable, which may include independent third-party advice

  • vi. Commercial and market factors specific to the Modifications

  • vii. Historical experience in resolving Modifications.

3. Earnings Per Share/Stapled Security (EPS/EPSS)

Accounting Policies

The Group presents basic and diluted EPS/EPSS in the Income Statement. This is a key performance measure for the Group. Refer to further details in the Finance Area of Focus section of the Annual Report.

Basic EPS/EPSS is determined by dividing Profit/(loss) after tax attributable to members of the Company and Group (excluding any costs of servicing equity other than ordinary shares/securities) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares/securities outstanding during the financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares/securities issued during the financial year. Diluted EPS/EPSS is determined by adjusting the Profit/(loss) after tax attributable to members of the Company and Group, and the weighted average number of ordinary shares/securities outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares/ securities. The Group currently does not have any dilutive potential ordinary shares/securities. Dilution occurs when treasury shares and employee share options are included in outstanding shares.

The issued units of Lendlease Trust (LLT) are presented separately within equity, and therefore the profit attributable to LLT is excluded from the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per Company share presented in the Income Statement.

This assessment is reviewed each reporting period or when facts and circumstances change during the reporting period.

Revenue is recognised over time, typically based on an input method using an estimate of costs incurred to date as a percentage of total estimated costs. These contracts are typically executed on the customer’s land so they control the assets as they are being built or the customer benefits from the service as the work is performed. Differences between amounts recognised as revenue and amounts billed to customers are recognised as contract assets or liabilities in the Statement of Financial Position.

The measurement of revenue is an area of accounting judgement. Management uses judgement to estimate:

  • i. Progress in satisfying the performance obligations within the contract, which includes estimating contract costs expected to be incurred to satisfy performance obligations

ii. The probability of the amount to be recognised as variable consideration for approved variations and claims where the final price has not been agreed with the customer.

Revenue is invoiced based on the terms of each individual contract, which may include a periodic billing schedule or achievement of specific milestones. Invoices are issued under commercial payment terms which are typically 30 days from when an invoice is issued.

A provision for loss making contracts is recorded for the difference between the expected costs of fulfilling a contract and the expected remaining economic benefits to be received where the forecast remaining costs exceed the forecast remaining benefits.

Provision of Investment services

Investment services include funds management, asset management, leasing and origination services.

Each contract with a customer to provide Investment services is typically one performance obligation with revenue recognised over time as services are rendered. Typically, our performance obligation is to manage a client’s capital and/or property for a specified period of time and is delivered as a series of daily performance obligations over time.

The transaction price for each contract may include variable consideration in the form of performance fees. Variable consideration is only included in the transaction price for a contract to the extent it is highly probable that a significant reversal of that revenue will not occur. The Group assesses probability of receiving variable consideration using a combination of commercial and market factors, and historical experience.

Revenue is invoiced either monthly or quarterly based on the terms of each individual contract. Invoices are issued under commercial payment terms which are typically 30 days from when an invoice is issued.

  1. Balances include both continuing and discontinued operations. Earnings per share/stapled security for continuing and discontinued operations have been separately disclosed in Note 33 ‘Discontinued Operations’.

Sale of Development Properties

The Group develops and sells residential land lots and built form products, including residential apartments, commercial and retail buildings. Sales of residential land lots and apartments typically are recognised at a point in time, with each contract treated as a single performance obligation to transfer control of an asset to a customer. Residential land lots and apartments are recognised on settlement with the customer.

The sale of retail, commercial and mixed use assets may include land, construction, development management and investment service components. Where there are multiple components within one contract, the transaction price is allocated based on the standalone selling prices of each component, typically using the residual approach, and revenue is recognised based on the policies noted above. Sales of commercial and retail buildings are recognised when the customer obtains control of the asset based on the specific terms and conditions of the sales contract.

The Group discounts deferred proceeds to reflect the time value of money where the period between the transfer of control of a development property and receipt of payment from the customer exceeds one year. Deferred proceeds from customers are recognised in trade and other receivables where the right to receive payment is unconditional. Deposits received in advance from customers are recognised as a contract liability until the performance obligation has been met.

The measurement of revenue from the sale of development properties is an area of accounting judgement as it requires management to exercise judgement in valuing the individual components of a development property sale, given the due consideration to cost inputs, market conditions and commercial factors. The recognition and determination of when control passes requires management judgement and is considered an area of accounting judgement.

Proceeds from the sale of residential land lots and apartments are received upon settlement, which typically occurs between 6-12 weeks following practical completion on the asset. Proceeds from the sale of retail, commercial and mixed use assets are received in accordance with the specific terms of each contract.

The Group may enter a PLLACes (Presold Lendlease Apartment Cash Flows) transaction for certain residential apartment buildings from time to time. This involves the Group receiving an upfront cash inflow from third party investors (investors) in exchange for selling the investors the rights to the cash proceeds that are due from customers once the apartments are completed. When customers settle their apartments the Group does not receive any cash proceeds nor does it pay any amounts to the investors as the customers pay the investors directly. On entry into a PLLACes transaction the cash inflow is disclosed as an operating cash inflow in the Statement of Cash Flows which typically occurs over a year in advance of the revenue recognition from the sale of the apartments. At the same time, an Other payables – PLLACes is also recognised within Trade and Other Payables and is derecognised as revenue once settlement of the apartments occurs.

  1. Further information on revenue by geography and by segments is included in Note 1 ‘Segment Reporting’.

Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method. The share of profit recognised under the equity method is the Group’s share of the investment’s profit or loss based on ownership interest held. Associates (including partnerships) are entities in which the Group, as a result of its voting rights, has significant influence, but not control or joint control, over the financial and operating policies. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement.

For associates, this is from the date that significant influence commences until the date that significant influence ceases, and for joint ventures, this is from the date joint control commences until the date joint control ceases.

7. Other Expenses

Accounting Policies

Other expenses in general are recognised as incurred.

Employee Benefit Expenses

Employee benefits are expensed as the related service by the employee is provided and includes both equity and cash based payment transactions. Employee benefits recognised in the Income Statement are net of recoveries.

For cash bonuses, the Group recognises an accrued liability for the amount expected to be paid. This is based on a formula that takes into consideration the profit attributable to the Group’s securityholders after certain adjustments. Refer to Note 35a ‘Short Term Incentives’ for further detail.

Share Based Compensation

The Group operates equity settled share based compensation plans that are linked to Lendlease’s security price. The fair value of the equity received in exchange for the grant is recognised as an expense and a corresponding increase in equity, in the Equity Compensation Reserve. The total amount to be expensed over the vesting period is determined by reference to the fair value of the securities granted.

The fair value is primarily determined using a Monte-Carlo simulation model. Refer to Note 35j ‘Amounts Recognised in the Financial Statements’ for further detail. Management considers the fair value assigned to be an area of estimation uncertainty as it requires judgements on Lendlease’s security price and whether vesting conditions will be satisfied.

At each balance sheet date, the Group revises its estimates of the entitlement due. It recognises the impact of revision of original estimates on non market conditions, if any, in the Income Statement, and a corresponding adjustment to equity over the remaining vesting period. Changes in entitlement for equity settled share based compensation plans are not recognised if they fail to vest due to market conditions not being met.

Superannuation Accumulation Plan Expense

All employees in the Australia region are entitled to benefits on retirement, disability or death from the Group’s superannuation accumulation plan. The majority of these employees are party to a defined contribution plan and receive fixed contributions from the Group. The Group has no further payment obligations once the contributions have been paid. The contributions are recognised as an employee benefit expense when they are due. The Group also operates a defined benefit superannuation plan, membership of which is now closed. Refer to Note 34 ‘Defined Benefit Plans’ for further detail.

Impairment

The carrying amounts of the Group’s assets, subject to impairment tests, are reviewed at each balance sheet date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. The calculation of this recoverable amount is dependent on the type of asset. The material assets’ accounting policies will contain further information on these calculations.

An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in the Income Statement.

  1. Non audit services include amounts charged for work relating to financial, regulatory and asset due diligence of the Group and its consolidated entities.

Reversals of Impairment

Impairment losses on assets can be reversed (other than goodwill) when there is a subsequent increase in the recoverable amount. The increase could be due to a specific event, the indication that impairment may no longer exist or there is a change in estimates used to determine the recoverable amount.

An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

Lease Expense

Short term lease and low value lease payments, including outgoings, are recognised in the Income Statement on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

Depreciation and Amortisation

Depreciation on owned assets is charged to the Income Statement on a straight line basis over the estimated useful lives of items of property, plant and equipment. Amortisation is provided on leasehold improvements over the remaining term of the lease. Most plant is depreciated over a period not exceeding 20 years, furniture and fittings over three to 15 years, motor vehicles over four to eight years and computer equipment over three years.

Right-of-use assets are depreciated using the straight line method from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term.

8. Finance Revenue and Finance Costs

Accounting Policies

Accounting Policies

Finance revenue is recognised as it is earned using the effective interest method, which applies the interest rate that discounts estimated future cash receipts over the expected life of the financial instrument. The discount is then recognised as finance revenue over the remaining life of the financial instrument.

Finance costs include interest, amortisation of discounts or premiums relating to borrowings and amortisation of costs incurred in connection with the arrangement of new borrowings facilities. Costs incurred in connection with the arrangement of borrowings are capitalised and amortised over the life of the borrowings. Finance costs are expensed immediately as incurred unless they relate to acquisition and development of qualifying assets. Qualifying assets are assets that take more than six months to prepare for their intended use or sale. Finance costs related to qualifying assets are capitalised.

Income tax on the profit or loss for the financial year comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognised in the Income Statement except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity, in which case it is recognised in equity. Under current Australian income tax law, LLT is not liable for income tax, including capital gains tax, to the extent that unitholders are attributed the taxable income of LLT.

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the financial year, using applicable tax rates (and tax laws) at the balance sheet date in each jurisdiction, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous financial years.

Deferred tax is the expected tax payable in future periods as a result of past transactions or events and is calculated by comparing the accounting balance sheet to the tax balance sheet. Temporary differences are provided for any differences in the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities between the accounting and tax balance sheets. The following temporary differences are not provided for:

  • The initial recognition of taxable goodwill

  • The initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting nor taxable profit

  • Differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they are not likely to reverse in the foreseeable future.

Measurement of deferred tax is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using applicable tax rates (and tax laws) at the balance sheet date.

Recognition of deferred tax assets is only to the extent it is probable that future taxable profits will be available so as the related tax asset will be realised. Deferred tax assets may include the following:

  • Deductible temporary differences

  • Unused tax losses

• Unused tax credits.

Management considers the estimation of future taxable profits to be an area of estimation uncertainty as a change in any of the assumptions used in budgeting and forecasting would have an impact on the future profitability of the Group. The Group prepares financial budgets and forecasts, covering a five year period, which are reviewed on a regular basis. These forecasts and budgets form the basis of future profitability to support the carrying value of the deferred tax assets. The performance of the Group is influenced by a variety of general economic and business conditions, which are outside the control of the Group, including the level of inflation, interest rates, exchange rates, commodity prices, ability to access funding, oversupply and demand conditions and government fiscal, monetary and regulatory policies.

Presentation of deferred tax assets and liabilities can be offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity or on different tax entities, but are intended to be settled on a net basis or to be realised simultaneously.

Tax Consolidation

The Company is the head entity of the Australian Tax Consolidated Group comprising all the Australian wholly owned subsidiaries, excluding LLT. As a consequence, all members of the Australian Tax Consolidation Group are taxed as a single entity.

  1. The weighted average interest rate used to determine the amount of interest finance costs eligible for capitalisation was 3.6 per cent (30 June 2020: 3.5 per cent), which is the effective interest rate.

Investment in the Development pipeline, joint ventures in property projects, the retirement sector, and more passive assets, such as property funds, drive the current and future performance of the Group. This section includes disclosures for property such as Inventories and indirect property assets such as Equity Accounted Investments and Other Financial Assets contained within the Statement of Financial Position.

11. Inventories

Accounting Policies

Development Properties

Property acquired for development and sale in the ordinary course of business is carried at the lower of cost and Net Realisable Value (NRV).

The cost of development properties includes expenditure incurred in acquiring the property, preparing it for sale and borrowing costs incurred.

The NRV is the estimated selling price, less the estimated costs of completion and selling expenses. Management considers the estimation of both selling prices and costs of completion to be an area of estimation uncertainty, as these estimations take into consideration market conditions affecting each property and the underlying strategy for selling the property.

The recoverable amount of each property is assessed at each balance date and accounting judgement is required to assess whether a provision is raised where cost (including costs to complete) exceeds NRV.

Inventories are expensed as cost of sales in the Income Statement. Management uses accounting judgement in determining the following:

  • The apportionment of cost of sales through sales revenue

  • The amount of cost of sales, which includes costs incurred to date and final forecast costs

  • The nature of the expenditure, which may include acquisition costs, development costs, borrowing costs and those costs incurred in preparing the property for sale.

Of the unrecognised deferred tax assets of $258 million, only $30 million expires by 2037. The remainder of the unrecognised deferred tax assets have no expiry date.

10. Events Subsequent to Balance Date

On 21 July 2021, the Group entered into an agreement with Service Stream for the sale of the Services business for a purchase price of $310 million. The transaction, which is expected to complete prior to the end of calendar year 2021, is subject to conditions including client and third party consents. Given the agreement was signed post balance date and at 30 June 2021 there was uncertainty as to whether a transaction would be completed, the Services business did not meet the accounting criteria to be held for sale, therefore it has not been included in discontinued operations or assets and liabilities classified as held for sale at 30 June 2021. The sale, and any resulting gain/loss after transaction costs and completion adjustments, is expected to be recorded in the subsequent financial year. The sale price is above the net assets of the Services business at 30 June 2021. Any gain/loss will be subject to the completion accounts process, final transaction costs and any required provisions for indemnifications.

On 16 August 2021, the Group announced the preliminary results of the business review undertaken following the appointment of the new Global CEO. While the review is still ongoing at the date of this report, the Group expects to record an estimated restructuring provision in FY22 of pre-tax $130 million to $170 million for the restructuring costs associated with the revised organisational structure and related matters. As part of this exercise, the Group has also identified a small number of projects where a material change in development strategy is under consideration. A range of alternative strategic options are being considered to reduce future capital outlay and/or expedite the release of existing capital on these projects to enable redeployment elsewhere. The expected change in forecast strategy for these projects is expected to result in an estimated development properties impairment of approximately pre-tax $230 million to $290 million in FY22. There were no other material events subsequent to the end of the financial reporting period.

The gross amount of Construction and Development work in progress consists of costs attributable to work performed, including recoverable pre contract and project bidding costs and emerging profit after providing for any foreseeable losses. In applying the accounting policies on providing for these losses, accounting judgement is required.

Construction contract assets are presented as part of inventories for all contracts in which revenue recognised (costs incurred plus recognised profits) exceed progress billings. If progress billings and/or recognised contract losses exceed revenue recognised, then the difference is presented in Trade and other payables as a Construction contract liability.

12. Equity Accounted Investments

Accounting Policies

Equity Accounted Investments (Associates and Joint Ventures)

As outlined in Note 5 ‘Share of Profit of Equity Accounted Investments’, investments in Associates and Joint Ventures are equity accounted. The share of investment recognised under the equity method is the Group’s share of the investment’s net assets based on ownership interest held.

Investments in associates and joint ventures are carried at the lower of the equity accounted carrying amount and the recoverable amount. When the Group’s share of losses exceeds the carrying amount of the equity accounted investment (including assets that form part of the net investment in the associate or joint venture entity), the carrying amount is reduced to nil and recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Group has obligations in respect of the associate or joint venture.

Dividends from associates and joint ventures represent a return on the Group’s investment and, as such, are applied as a reduction to the carrying value of the investment. Unrealised gains arising from transactions with equity accounted investments are eliminated against the investment in the associate or joint venture to the extent of the Group’s interest in the associate or joint venture. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment. Other movements in associates’ and joint ventures’ reserves are recognised directly in the Group’s consolidated reserves.

Service Concession Arrangements (SCAs)

The Group equity accounts its investment in project companies with SCAs through Public Private Partnerships (PPPs). These arrangements provide facilities management and maintenance services with terms generally of 25 to 30 years. They also incorporate contractual obligations to make available the individual assets for their prescribed use and, where necessary, overhaul or replace major items of plant and equipment related to the assets with payment obtained through periodic draw downs from the relevant government authorities.

Joint Operations

A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities relating to the arrangement.

Investments in joint operations are accounted for by recognising amounts on a line by line basis in accordance with the accounting standards applicable to the particular assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses in relation to the Group’s interest in the joint operation.

  1. Although the Group has less than 20 per cent ownership interest in Lendlease Sub Regional Retail Fund and Lendlease Asian Retail Investment Fund 3, it holds at least 20 per cent of the voting rights over the fund and has significant influence over the investment. As a result, the Group applies equity accounting for its ownership interest.

c. Material Associates and Joint Ventures Summarised Financial Information

The table below provides summarised financial information for those associates and joint ventures that are material to the Group. Material associates and joint ventures have been determined by comparing individual investment net book value with the total equity accounted investment carrying value and share of profit, along with consideration of relevant qualitative factors. The information disclosed reflects the amounts presented in the financial statements of the relevant joint ventures and associates and, where indicated, the Group’s share of those amounts. They have been amended to reflect adjustments made by the Group when using the equity method, including fair value adjustments and differences in accounting policies. The nature and principal activities of the material associates and joint ventures is investment in property assets.

Accounting Policies

Financial Assets at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition are measured at fair value (generally transaction price) and subsequently stated at fair value. Transaction costs are recorded as expenses when they are incurred. Any gain or loss arising from a change in fair value is recognised in the Income Statement.

Financial Assets at amortised cost are presented within Note 21 ‘Loans and Receivables’.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements continued

Section C: Liquidity and Working Capital

The ability of the Group to fund the continued investment in the development pipeline, invest in new opportunities and meet current commitments is dependent on available cash, undrawn debt facilities and access to third party capital. This section contains disclosures on the financial assets, financial liabilities, cash flows and equity that are required to finance the Group’s activities, including existing commitments and the liquidity risk exposure associated with financial liabilities. The section also contains disclosures for the Group’s trading assets, excluding inventories, and the trading liabilities incurred as a result of trading activities used to generate the Group’s performance.

14. Cash and Cash Equivalents

Accounting Policies

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, bank overdrafts and other short term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash within three months and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

Bank overdrafts (if applicable) are shown as a current liability on the Statement of Financial Position and are shown as a reduction to the cash balance in the Statement of Cash Flows.

16. Borrowings and Financing Arrangements

Accounting Policies

Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Under the amortised cost method the difference between the amount initially recognised and the redemption value is recorded in the Income Statement over the period of the borrowing on an effective interest basis. Borrowings are referred to in this section using their redemption value when describing the terms and conditions.

Accounting Policies

Issued Capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares are recognised as a deduction from equity.

When share capital recognised as equity is repurchased, the amount of the consideration paid, including directly attributable costs, is recognised as a change in equity. Repurchased shares are classified as treasury shares and are recognised as a deduction from equity.

  1. On 4 May 2020, the Group issued 97 million new stapled securities via an institutional placement at an issue price of $9.80.

  2. On 4 June 2020, the Group issued 27 million new stapled securities via a Security Purchase Plan at an issue price of $9.80.

  3. During the prior period the Group raised $1,193 million in equity after costs which was allocated 48.4 per cent to the Company and 51.6 per cent to Lendlease Trust.

a. Issuance of Securities

As at 30 June 2021, the Group had 689 million stapled securities on issue, equivalent to the number of Lendlease Corporation shares and Lendlease Trust (LLT) units on issue as at that date. The issued units of LLT are not owned by the Company and are therefore presented separately in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position within equity.

b. Security Accumulation Plans

The Group’s Distribution Reinvestment Plan (DRP) was reactivated in February 2011. The last date for receipt of an election notice for participation in the DRP is 24 August 2021. The issue price is the arithmetic average of the daily volume weighted average price of Lendlease Group stapled securities traded (on the Australian Securities Exchange) for the period of five consecutive business days immediately following the record date, commencing on 24 August 2021, for determining entitlements to distribution. If that price is less than 50 cents, the issue price will be 50 cents. Stapled securities issued under the DRP rank equally with all other stapled securities on issue.

c. Terms and Conditions

Issued capital for Lendlease Corporation Limited comprises ordinary shares fully paid. A stapled security represents one share in the Company stapled to one unit in LLT. Stapled securityholders have the right to receive declared dividends from the Company and distributions from LLT and are entitled to one vote per stapled security at securityholders’ meetings. Ordinary stapled securityholders rank after all creditors in repayment of capital.

The Group does not have authorised capital or par value in respect of its issued stapled securities.

18. Capital Management

The Group assesses capital management as part of its broader strategic plan. The Group focuses on interrelated financial parameters, including Return on Equity, earnings growth and borrowing capacity. The Group also monitors its gearing ratio, leverage ratio, interest coverage ratio and weighted average cost of debt and maturity profile. These are all taken into account when the Group makes decisions on how to invest its capital and evaluate its existing investments.

The Group’s capital includes total equity, borrowings and other interest bearing liabilities. When investing capital, the Group’s objective is to deliver strong total securityholder returns and to maintain an investment grade credit rating by maintaining an appropriate financial profile. The Moody’s/Fitch long term credit ratings at 30 June 2021 are Baa3/BBB- respectively (June 2020: Baa3/BBB-).

The capital structure of the Group can be changed by equity issuance, paying distributions to securityholders, the Distribution Reinvestment Plan and changing the level of debt. For further information on how the Group allocates and manages capital, refer to details of the Portfolio Management Framework in the Financial Area of Focus and Performance and Outlook sections of this Annual Report.

19. Liquidity Risk Exposure

Further information on liquidity risk is disclosed in Note 24 ‘Financial Risk Management’. As disclosed in Note 27 ‘Contingent Liabilities’, in certain circumstances, the Company guarantees the performance of particular Group entities in respect of their obligations including bonding and bank guarantees. Issued bank guarantees have cash collateralisation requirements if the bank guarantee facility is not renewed by the provider.

At 30 June 2021, the Group does not anticipate a significant liquidity risk in relation to the following financial liabilities. This is due to the Group’s strong financial profile, as supported by the significant committed undrawn facilities and low gearing ratio. Refer to Note 14 ‘Cash and Cash Equivalents’ and Note 16 ‘Borrowings and Financing Arrangements’.

The Group has provided collateral of $nil (June 2020: $nil) against letter of credit facilities.

21. Loans and Receivables

Accounting Policies

Loans and receivables, which include trade and other receivables, are non derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not equity securities. They arise when the Group provides money, goods or services directly to a debtor with no intention of trading the receivable. Contract debtors represent receivables where the right to receive payment from customers remains conditional. Other receivables include receivables related to investment management, property development and miscellaneous items.

Loans and receivables are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, which applies the interest rate that discounts estimated future cash receipts over the term of the loans and receivables. Cash flows relating to short term trade and other receivables are not discounted if the effect of discounting is immaterial. The discount, if material, is then recognised as revenue over the remaining term.

The Group assesses provision for impairment of loans and receivables based on expected loss, and books a provision if material. The Group considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information and analysis, based on the Group’s historical impairment experience, credit assessment of customers and any relevant forward looking information. The amount of the provision is recognised in the Income Statement.

The credit quality of all loans and receivables, including those neither past due nor impaired, is assessed and monitored on an ongoing basis. As the majority of the Group’s customers are government entities for the Construction business and are institutional investors in the Development and Investment businesses, no additional risk has been identified. Impairment as noted above was immaterial at 30 June 2021. The impairment provision relates to specific loans and receivables that have been identified as being impaired, including related party loans where the Group’s interest in a development was via an equity accounted investment.

Of the past due amount, $112 million was not impaired (30 June 2020: $245 million). ‘Past due’ is defined under accounting standards to mean any amount outstanding for one or more days after the contractual due date. Of the total trade debtors, 6.5 per cent (30 June 2020: 23.1 per cent) are aged greater than 90 days. Other than trade debtors, no other loans and receivables are considered past due at 30 June 2021 (30 June 2020: $nil).

Trade Creditors

Liabilities are recognised for amounts to be paid in the future for goods or services received, whether or not billed to the Group. Trade and other payables are settled in the normal course of business. Trade and other payables are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, which applies the interest rate that discounts estimated future cash outflows over the term of the trade and other payables. Cash flows relating to short term trade and other payables are not discounted if the effect of discounting is immaterial. The discount, if material, is then recognised as an expense over the remaining term.

Construction Contract Liabilities

Construction contracts where the total progress billings issued to clients (together with foreseeable losses, if applicable) on a project exceed the revenue recognised (costs incurred to date plus recognised profit) on the contract are recognised as a liability. Retentions

Retentions are amounts payable for the purpose of security and for the provision of defects in accordance with contract terms. Release of retention amounts are in accordance with contractual terms.

Unearned Income

Primarily relates to unearned income and deposits received in advance on presold apartments. These amounts will be recognised as income in line with the ‘Sale of development properties’ accounting policy in Note 4 ‘Revenue from Contracts with Customers’. Lease Liabilities

Lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the lease payments discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. The Group uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate.

Refer to Note 4 ‘Revenue from Contracts with Customers’ for further details. This amount was deconsolidated in FY21 as part of the sale of One Sydney Harbour R1 Trust. See Note 6 ‘Other Income’ for further detail.

Accounting Policies

Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the Group will be required to settle that obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the reporting date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. Where a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows (when the effect of the time value of money is material).

Management considers this is an area of estimation uncertainty as these calculations involve a number of key assumptions including the expected future cash outflow and the timing of the outflow to determine the provision.

Employee Benefits

Includes amounts for employee annual leave and long service leave entitlements.

Construction Projects

Includes amounts for claims and litigation related to legacy construction projects. The timing of any expected outflows of economic benefits is dependent on the progression of negotiations and litigation with claimants, which are ongoing at period end.

Development Projects

As at 30 June 2021, the Group recognised right-of-use assets of $325 million within Property, Plant and Equipment and $nil within Investment Properties.

  1. Movements in Unearned income relates primarily to residential presales settled during the period and deposits received for development properties.

  2. Movements in Construction contract liabilities relate primarily to billings raised during the period in excess of revenue recognised on construction contracts with customers. This balance also contains provisions previously incurred on retained Engineering projects that are in progress.

During the year, the Group recognised $466 million in revenue from contracts that held a contract liability balance at the beginning of the financial year. The total transaction price relating to the Group’s Unearned income on the Group’s development contracts at June 2021 is $556 million relating primarily to various UK and Australian projects. The difference between the Unearned income amount noted in the table above and this amount primarily relates to the remaining development value of apartments versus the deposit amount received. Revenue from these contracts is expected to be realised as control over each asset is transferred to the customer.

Includes amounts for costs to close out development projects, including defects and residual guarantees. The timing of any expected outflows of economic benefits is dependent on market factors, such as lease up rates in specific markets, and negotiations with customers.

Includes amounts related to various litigation and commercial matters.

Section D: Risk Management

a. Foreign Currency Risk Exposure

The net asset exposure by currency is detailed below.

The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks. The Group’s overall financial risk management strategy focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise adverse effects on the Group’s performance. Treasury policies have been approved by the Board for managing this risk. This section contains disclosures of financial risks the Group is exposed to and how the Group manages these risks. The impact of contingent liabilities is also considered in this section.

24. Financial Risk Management

Sensitivity Analysis

The Group operates across numerous jurisdictions and markets. The Lendlease Asset and Liability Committee oversees the management of the Group’s treasury risks, within the parameters of a Board approved Treasury Policy, and maintains a Group wide framework for financial risk management and reviews issues of material risk exposure within the scope of the Treasury Policy. A summary of key risks identified, exposures and management of exposures is detailed in the table below:

The sensitivity analysis of the Group’s Australian dollar denominated Income Statement and Statement of Financial Position to foreign currency movements is based on a 10 per cent fluctuation (June 2020: 10 per cent fluctuation) on the average rates during the financial year and the spot rate at balance date, respectively. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant, and excludes the effects of the foreign exchange contracts.

A 10 per cent movement in the average foreign exchange rates would have impacted the Group’s Profit after tax as follows:

24. Financial Risk Management continued

b. Credit Risk Exposure

  • The maximum exposure to credit risk at balance date on financial instruments recognised in the Statement of Financial Position (excluding investments of the Group) equals the carrying amount, net of any impairment

  • The Group is not exposed to any significant concentrations of credit risk on either a geographic or industry specific basis

  • Credit risk on financial instruments is managed under a Board approved credit policy that determines acceptable counterparties. Derivative counterparties and cash deposits are limited to recognised financial intermediaries with a minimum investment grade credit rating as determined by a recognised rating agency

Accounting Policies

The accounting policies for financial instruments held at fair value are included in Note 13 ‘Other Financial Assets’ and Note 25 ‘Hedging’.

Management considers the valuation of assets at fair value including financial instruments to be an area of estimation uncertainty. While this represents the best estimation of fair value at the reporting date, the fair values may differ if there is volatility in market prices or foreign exchange rates in future periods.

  • Refer to Note 21 ‘Loans and Receivables’ for information relating to impairment on loans and receivables

  • In certain circumstances, the Group will hold either financial or non financial assets as collateral to further mitigate the potential credit risk on selected transactions. During the current and prior year, the Group did not hold financial or non financial assets as collateral. At any point in time, the Group will hold other collateral such as bank guarantees and performance bonds to mitigate potential credit risk as a result of default by a counterparty or otherwise.

c. Interest Rate Risk Exposure

The Group’s exposure to interest rate risk on its financial assets and liabilities is set out as follows:

Sensitivity Analysis

At 30 June 2021, it is estimated that an increase of one percentage point in interest rates would have decreased the Group’s equity and Profit after tax by $3 million (June 2020: $6 million decrease in the Group’s equity and Profit after tax). A one percentage point decrease in interest rates would have increased the Group’s equity and Profit after tax by $3 million (June 2020: $6 million increase in the Group’s equity and Profit after tax). The increase or decrease in interest income/(expense) is proportional to the increase or decrease in interest rates. Interest rate derivatives have been included in this calculation.

25. Hedging

All financial instruments recognised in the Statement of Financial Position, including those instruments carried at amortised cost, are recognised at amounts that represent a reasonable approximation of fair value, with the exception of the following borrowings:

The fair value of commercial notes has been calculated by discounting the expected future cash flows by the appropriate government bond rates and credit margin applicable to the relevant term of the commercial note.

a. Basis of Determining Fair Value

The determination of fair values of financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value are summarised as follows:

  • The fair value of unlisted equity investments, including investments in property funds, is determined based on an assessment of the underlying net assets, which may include periodic independent and Directors’ valuations, future maintainable earnings and any special circumstances pertaining to the particular investment. Fair value of unlisted equity investments has also taken the ongoing COVID pandemic into consideration to determine fair value at 30 June 2021. This included valuations of underlying investment properties at balance date

  • The fair values of other financial assets and financial liabilities (excluding derivative instruments) are determined in accordance with generally accepted valuation techniques; these include the use of recent arm’s length transactions, reference to other assets that are substantially the same, and discounted cash flow analysis

  • The fair value of derivative instruments comprises forward foreign exchange contracts, which are valued using forward rates at balance date, and interest rate swap contracts, which are measured at the present value of future cash flows estimated and discounted based on applicable yield curves derived from quoted interest rates and include consideration of counterparty risk adjustments.

b. Fair Value Measurements

The different levels for valuation method have been defined as follows:

Accounting Policies

The Group uses derivative financial instruments to hedge its exposure to foreign exchange and interest rate risks arising from operating, financing and investing activities. Derivative financial instruments are recognised initially at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and subsequently remeasured at fair value. Hedge accounting recognises the offsetting effects on profit or loss of changes in the fair value of the derivative financial instruments and the hedged item. The accounting for hedges that meet the criteria for hedge accounting are classified as either fair value hedges, cash flow hedges or investment hedges.

  • Level 1: The fair value is determined using the unadjusted quoted price for an identical asset or liability in an active market for identical assets or liabilities

  • Level 2: The fair value is calculated using predominantly observable market data other than unadjusted quoted prices for an identical asset or liability

  • Level 3: The fair value is calculated using inputs that are not based on observable market data.

During the period, there were no material transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 fair value hierarchies.

The Group has minimal hedges designated at fair value. The Group primarily uses forward foreign exchange contracts as cash flow hedges for highly probable sale, purchase and dividend transactions. The Group also uses forward foreign exchange contracts to hedge cross border intercompany loans and transactions which mainly net off in the Income Statement. Interest rate swaps and interest rate options are used to manage the Group’s exposure to interest rates arising from borrowings. These are primarily treated as cash flow hedges and are mainly on borrowings within equity accounted investments.

The Group has foreign exchange derivative contracts primarily held in GBP, USD, EUR, SGD and CNY at reporting date to hedge specific foreign currency exposures. The total gross payable exposure is $1,405 million (June 2020: payable $936 million).

There are 62 foreign currency contracts that will mature in more than one year (June 2020: 56 foreign currency contracts).

27. Contingent Liabilities

The Group has the following contingent liabilities, being liabilities in respect of which there is the potential for a cash outflow in excess of any provision where the likelihood of payment is not considered probable or cannot be measured reliably at this time:

  • There are a number of legal claims and exposures that arise from the normal course of the Group’s business. Such claims and exposures largely arise in respect of claims for defects, claims for breach of performance obligations or breach of warranty or claims under indemnities. In some claims:

This section provides information on how the Group structure affects the financial position and performance of the Group as a whole. The disclosures detail the types of entities and transactions included in the consolidation and those excluded.

28. Consolidated Entities

  • There is uncertainty as to whether a legal obligation exists;

  • There is uncertainty as to whether a future cash outflow will arise in respect to these items; and/or

  • It is not possible to quantify the potential exposure with sufficient reliability.

This particularly applies in larger more complex projects, in claims involving a number of parties or in claims made a number of years after completion of a project.

Where it is probable there will be liabilities from such claims and the potential exposure can be quantified with sufficient reliability, a provision has been made for anticipated losses arising from such claims.

  • In certain circumstances, the Company guarantees the performance of particular Group entities in respect of their obligations. This includes bonding and bank guarantee facilities used primarily by the Construction business as well as performance guarantees for certain of the Company’s subsidiaries.

  • Securities Class Action

On 18 April 2019, Lendlease Corporation and Lendlease Responsible Entity (Lendlease Group) were served with a shareholder class action proceeding filed in the Supreme Court of New South Wales on 18 April 2019 by David William Pallas and Julie Ann Pallas as trustees for the Pallas Family Superannuation Fund, represented by Maurice Blackburn. On 7 August 2019, Lendlease Corporation and Lendlease Responsible Entity (Lendlease Group) were served with a shareholder class action proceeding filed in the Supreme Court of New South Wales on 6 August 2019 by Martin John Fletcher, represented by Phi Finney McDonald. On 21 November 2019 the Supreme Court ordered consolidation of the two class actions into a single proceeding. The consolidated proceeding alleges that Lendlease was in breach of its continuous disclosure obligations under the Corporations Act 2001 and made representations about its Engineering and Services business that were misleading or deceptive or likely to mislead or deceive. It is currently not possible to determine the ultimate impact of these claims, if any, on Lendlease Group. Lendlease Group denies the allegations and intends to vigorously defend this proceeding.

Accounting Policies

The Group consolidation comprises all subsidiaries controlled by the Company. Control exists when the Company:

  • Has the power to direct the relevant activities such as key operating, financial and investing decisions

  • Has exposure or rights to variable returns from its involvement with the investee such as dividends, loans and fees

  • Has the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of returns.

In assessing control, potential voting rights that are presently exercisable or convertible are taken into account. Management uses accounting judgement in determining whether the Group controls an entity by applying the above control criteria and reviewing the substance of its relationship with the entity.

The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. The financial statements of subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company, using consistent accounting policies with adjustments made to bring into line any dissimilar accounting policies that may exist.

External non controlling interests are allocated their share of total comprehensive income and are presented within equity in the consolidated Statement of Financial Position, separately from the equity of securityholders.

The material consolidated entities of the Group listed below were wholly owned during the current and prior year. Refer to the following section for details on the disposal of entities.

In respect of the contingent liabilities of the Group disclosed in Note 27 ‘Contingent Liabilities’, the Company participates in the provision of guarantees to Group entities.

  • Americas: US Rabbi Trust (Rabbi Trust) was established in 2004 and updated in 2005 for the acceptance of employee profit share contributions used to acquire Group securities for US based employees. This part of the plan is not currently accepting new contributions

  • Employee Share Acquisition Plan (STI) (ESAP STI): ESAP STI was established in July 2014 for the purpose of acquiring and allocating securities granted as the deferred component of Short Term Incentive (STI) awards, which are funded by Lendlease subscriptions. Securities are currently allocated to employees across Australia, Singapore, Malaysia, the United Kingdom and the United States.

Eligibility

The eligibility rules for each plan are determined by reference to the regulatory, legal and tax rules of each country in which the Group operates.

Distributions and/or Voting Rights

Generally, employees in the various operating security plans are entitled to distributions and voting rights for allocated securities. The plans reflect this intention subject to regulatory, legal and tax constraints. The trustee may exercise these rights in accordance with any fiduciary or governance rules pertaining to the deed or trust laws in the legal and tax jurisdiction within which the trust operates.

b. Employee Security Ownership Vehicles

In addition to the plans discussed above, Lendlease has an employee security ownership vehicle, Lendlease Retirement Benefit Fund (RBF):

  • RBF was established in 1984 with shareholder approval for the benefit of employees. RBF holds Lendlease securities. The Lendlease securities in RBF are not available for allocation to employees other than in the event of a change of control of the Group and, in accordance with RBF’s trust deed, the capital of the trust is not available to the Group. The RBF trustee has discretion as to the distribution of the RBF funds. In 1992, a deed poll was executed which allows for the distribution of the income of RBF to the Company to fund employee benefit activities through the Lendlease Foundation. As a result of changes to the constitution and governance structure of the RBF trustee on 22 June 2017, Lendlease currently does not have control of RBF and therefore RBF is currently not required to be consolidated for accounting purposes

  • The RBF arrangement is subject to periodic review to assess its ongoing role and operation.

Section F: Other Notes

32. Intangible Assets

Accounting Policies

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the Group’s share of the net identifiable assets and contingent liabilities of the acquired business at the date of acquisition. Goodwill on acquisition of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets as goodwill. Goodwill on acquisition of associates is included in the carrying value of investments in associates.

Goodwill is tested annually for impairment and carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is not amortised. Gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold.

For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to cash generating units (CGUs) (or groups of CGUs) that are expected to benefit from the business combination in which the goodwill arose. CGUs are an identifiable group of assets that generate cash associated with the goodwill. Management considers this is an area of estimation uncertainty as these calculations involve an estimation of the recoverable amount of the CGU to which the goodwill is allocated. The Construction CGUs use the value in use basis, which requires the Group to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the CGUs and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the recoverable amounts.

Management agreements and other intangible assets acquired by the Group are stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses (see Note 7 ‘Other Expenses’). Amortisation is charged to the Income Statement on a straight line basis over the estimated useful lives of the intangible assets, ranging from three to 20 years.

c. Impairment Tests and Key Assumptions Used – Construction

The recoverable amount of the Construction CGUs is determined based on value in use (VIU) calculations. For the Construction CGUs, the assumptions used for determining the recoverable amount of each CGU are based on past experience and expectations for the future, utilising both internal and external sources of data and relevant industry trends.

No impairment arose as a result of the review of goodwill for the Construction CGUs for the year ended 30 June 2021. Based on information available and market conditions at 30 June 2021, a reasonably foreseeable change in the assumptions made in this assessment would not result in impairment of Construction goodwill. The foreseeable change in the assumptions took the ongoing COVID pandemic into consideration. The following describes the key assumptions on which management has based its cash flow projections when determining VIU relating to the Construction CGUs:

Cash Flows

The VIU calculations use pre tax cash flow projections based on actual operating results, and financial forecasts covering a five year period which have been approved by management. These forecasts are based on management estimates to determine income, expenses, capital expenditure and cash flows for each CGU.

Growth Rate

The terminal value growth rate used to extrapolate the cash flows beyond the five year period is 3.0 per cent (June 2020: 3.0 per cent). The growth rate reflects the forecast long term average growth rate for each CGU and the countries in which they operate.

Discount Rate

The discount rates applied to the cash flow projections vary between 8.9 per cent and 12.4 per cent (June 2020: between 9.4 per cent and 13.1 per cent). The Group’s weighted average cost of capital is used as a starting point for determining the discount rate, with appropriate adjustments for the risk profile relating to the relevant CGUs and the countries in which they operate. The discount rates used are pre tax.

33. Discontinued Operations

Accounting Policies

Discontinued operations relate to a component of the Group including its corresponding assets and liabilities that have been classified as held for sale and represent a separate major line of business or geographical area of operation. The group of assets and their corresponding liabilities (together referred to as a Disposal Group), may only be classified as held for sale once the following criteria are met:

  • The carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use

• The sale must be highly probable.

A Disposal Group is measured at the lower of its carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Where fair value is lower than the carrying amount, the difference is recognised as an impairment loss within the Income Statement.

The results of discontinued operations are presented separately in the Income Statement and Statement of Comprehensive Income.

On 25 February 2019, the Group announced that its Engineering and Services businesses are no longer a required part of the Group’s strategy. Management at that time committed to a plan to exit from Non core operations of Engineering and Services. On 19 December 2019, the Group entered into an agreement with Acciona to sell its Engineering business and on 9 September 2020 the Group completed the sale. The agreed purchase price for the sale of the Engineering business was $160 million which was adjusted by $37 million at completion, resulting in total estimated proceeds of $197 million. $150 million has been received by 30 June 2021. Acciona has not made the final deferred payment which was due on 30 June 2021 claiming various amounts should be set off against that payment. This is disputed by Lendlease and legal proceedings have been commenced seeking recovery of payments due by Acciona. The discontinued operations represent the Engineering business sold, excluding the projects retained by the Group.

At 30 June 2021, the Services business does not meet the criteria to be held for sale and does not meet the definition of a discontinued operation. Refer to Note 10 ‘Events Subsequent to Balance Date’ for further details.

The Group has recorded provisions related to claims on historical Non core segment projects completed prior to the sale of the Engineering business. Refer to the construction projects category in Note 23 ‘Provisions’ for where the amounts have been recorded.

The major classes of assets and liabilities of the Engineering business sold as at 9 September 2020 are as follows:

34. Defined Benefit Plans

Accounting Policies

Group companies operate pension plans. The plans are generally funded through payments to insurance companies or trustee administered funds as determined by periodic actuarial calculations.

A defined benefit plan is a pension plan that defines the amount of pension benefit an employee will receive on retirement, usually dependent on one or more factors such as age, years of service and compensation.

The asset or liability recognised in the Statement of Financial Position in respect of defined benefit plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation i.e. ‘the pension liability’ at the balance sheet date less the fair value of plan assets. The present value of the pension liability is determined by discounting the estimated future cash outflows using interest rates of high quality corporate or government bonds, that:

  • Are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid

  • Have terms to maturity approximating the terms of the related pension liability.

The defined benefit obligation is calculated at least annually by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method, which in simplistic terms proportions the benefit based on service. Management considers the valuation of defined benefit plans undertaken by the actuaries to be an area of estimation uncertainty as a number of key assumptions must be adopted to determine the valuation.

Actuarial losses/(gains) will arise where there is a difference between previous estimates and actual experience, or a change to assumptions in relation to demographic and financial trends. These actuarial losses/(gains) are recognised in the period they occur, directly in other comprehensive income as remeasurements. They are included in retained earnings in the Statement of Changes in Equity and in the Statement of Financial Position.

Past service costs are recognised immediately in the Income Statement.

a. Lendlease UK Pension Scheme

Lendlease Construction Holdings (Europe) Limited (UK Construction) sponsors a funded defined benefit pension scheme (the Scheme) for qualifying UK employees. The Scheme is administered by a separate board of Trustees which is legally separate from UK Construction. The Scheme’s Trustees are composed of representatives of both the employer and employees. The Trustees are required by law to act in the interest of all relevant beneficiaries and are responsible for the investment policy with regard to the assets plus the day to day administration of the benefits.

The Scheme is a funded defined benefit scheme, with the final salary section providing retirement benefits based on final salary and the index linked section providing retirement benefits based on career average salary. A separate section, the Personal Investment Section, provides retirement benefits on a defined contribution basis. The UK Construction’s contributions to members’ Personal Investment Fund accounts are not included in these disclosures.

The final salary section closed to future accruals on 31 August 2008 and the index linked section closed to future accruals on 31 January 2012. There were no Scheme amendments affecting defined benefits payable, curtailments or settlements during the year. UK Construction pays four per cent of members’ basic salaries to cover the Scheme’s expected administration costs and costs of benefits payable on death in service. The Scheme expects to pay $5 million in contributions to its defined benefit plan in FY22. Following the triennial valuation for 31 March 2020, deficit repair contributions are not required to be paid as the scheme is in an actuarial surplus.

The defined benefit plan is exposed to actuarial risk and market (investment) risk. The following information provides additional detail on risk:

The investment funds target an absolute level of return. The plan assets can be categorised as Level 1, where the fair value is determined using an unadjusted quoted price for an identical asset, or Level 2, where the fair value is derived either directly or indirectly from observable inputs, or Level 3, where inputs are unobservable (i.e. for which market data is unavailable). At year end, approximately $1,428 million (June 2020: $1,408 million) and $87 million (June 2020: $73 million) of total plan assets were categorised as Level 2 and Level 3, respectively. UK Construction and Trustees have agreed to a long term strategy for reducing investment risk as and when appropriate. This includes an asset– liability matching policy which aims to reduce the volatility of the funding level of the pension plan by investing in assets that perform in line with the liabilities of the plan so as to protect against inflation being higher than expected. The current targeted benchmark allocation is 67.5 per cent growth assets and 32.5 per cent matching assets (June 2020: 75.0 per cent growth assets and 25.0 per cent matching assets).

35. Employee Benefits

34. Defined Benefit Plans continued

Detailed information regarding the Group’s Executive Reward strategy is provided in the Remuneration Report within the Directors’ Report. The key incentive plans are as follows:

June 2021 June 2020
vi. Principal Actuarial Assumptions
Discount rate (%) 2.0 1.5
RPI infation (%) 3.5 3.0
Average pension increase in payments (%) 2.7 2.5
Future mortality (years):
Male 25.3 24.9
Female 26.3 26.4

The liabilities are calculated using a discount rate set with reference to corporate bond yield. If assets underperform this yield, this will create a deficit.

A decrease in corporate bond yield will increase the value placed on the Scheme’s liabilities, although this will be partially offset by an increase in the value of the Scheme’s corporate bond holdings. The majority of the Scheme’s benefit obligations are linked to inflation and higher inflation will lead to higher liabilities, although in most cases this will be capped to protect against extreme inflation. The majority of the assets are either unaffected by or loosely correlated with inflation, meaning that an increase in inflation will also increase the deficit. The majority of the Scheme’s obligations are to provide benefits for the life of the member, so increases in life expectancy will result in an increase in the liabilities. The mortality assumptions are based on standard mortality tables which allow for expected future mortality improvements. The assumption is that a member aged 63 will live for a further 25.3 years (June 2020: 24.9 years) if they are male and 26.3 years if they are female (June 2020: 26.4 years).

At 30 June 2021, the weighted average duration of the defined benefit obligation was 18 years (June 2020: 19 years).

a. Short Term Incentive (STI)

The STI plan is an annual incentive plan whereby a number of employees receive benefits which are dependent upon the achievement of both Lendlease financial and non financial targets, and individual goals. The total value of the potential benefit varies by individual and is tested against relevant market levels for each role.

  • The STI plan typically comprises a cash component, which is paid in September following year end. For more senior employees, where the potential benefit is typically higher, the plan also includes a deferred component

  • Deferral periods are generally for one or two years. The deferred component is normally awarded as Lendlease securities and in some instances as cash. Securities are held in Lendlease employee security plan trusts on behalf of employees for the deferral period (refer to Note 29a ‘Employee Security Plans’). For employees to receive the deferred component in full, they must generally be employed by the Group at the time of vesting.

b. Short Term Award (STA)

The sensitivity analysis presented above may not be representative of the actual change in the defined benefit obligation as it is unlikely that the change in assumptions would occur in isolation of one another as some of the assumptions may be correlated.

Non pensioner benefits are linked to RPI in the period up to retirement. Once in payment, pension increases are linked to RPI but with a zero per cent floor and different caps applying to different periods of pensionable service. The inflation sensitivity reflects a change in RPI inflation and the associated increases in payment.

The STA plan is an annual incentive plan which replaced the STI for a limited number of senior executives from 2019. It is designed to focus senior executives on priority areas for delivery in the current financial year, including key Group and regional financial targets, safety and other non financial targets aligned to the Group’s areas of focus.

Whilst performance is assessed against a set of Group metrics when determining awards, the Board will assess the overall performance and contribution of individual senior executives, with a particular focus on safety.

The total value of the potential benefit varies by individual and is set with reference to both internal peers and external market levels. The STA plan is intended to be awarded as cash in September following year end.

c. Long Term Incentive (LTI)

The LTI plan is designed to:

  • Motivate executives to achieve the Group’s long term strategic goals and provide reward where the Group delivers better value to securityholders than its peers

  • Align the interests of executives and securityholders, given that the reward received is linked to the Group’s security price and average Return on Equity performance.

How the LTI Works
• An annual grant of ‘performance securities’ is made to a limited number of executives
• The Board intends that the awards be settled in Lendlease securities, although the award may be settled in cash or
other means at the Board’s discretion
• On vesting, each performance security entitles executives to one Lendlease stapled security, or at the Board’s
discretion, cash or other instruments of equivalent value
• In the event of a change in control of the Group, the Board has the discretion to determine whether the vesting of
some or all performance securities should be accelerated.
• 50 per cent of the performance securities are assessed over a three year period. If the performance hurdle is not
fully achieved at this time, those performance securities that have not vested will lapse
• The remaining 50 per cent of the performance securities are assessed after four years
• If the performance hurdle is not met, the awards are forfeited
• There is no retesting on any portion of the LTI grant.

Employment
• If the executive resigns or is terminated for cause, the unvested LTI is forfeited
• If the executive is terminated and if the Board considers vesting would provide a beneft that was unwarranted or
inappropriate, the Board can adjust unvested LTI prior to the vesting date
• For ‘good leavers’, the LTI grant may remain on foot, subject to the original terms
• In exceptional circumstances (such as death or total and permanent disability), the Board may exercise discretion
and settle the award at the time of termination of employment.

d. Long Term Award (LTA)

The LTA plan replaced the LTI for a limited number of executives from 2019. It was designed to motivate and reward key executives to deliver on the Group’s long term strategy and to allow them to share in the value created for securityholders. Specifically, the objectives are to:

  • Create rewards that are aligned to earnings

  • Align the interests of securityholders and our most senior executives

  • Promote team behaviours and an enterprise leadership mindset

  • Retain the senior executive team.

• An annual grant of ‘performance rights’ is made to a limited number of executives on the Global Leadership Team

• Performance rights are rights to receive a variable number of Lendlease securities or at the discretion of the Board,

• Outcomes against performance hurdles will determine how many Lendlease securities will be received following
vesting between nil and a maximum number
• In the event of a change in control of the Group, the Board has the discretion to determine whether the vesting of
some or all performance rights should be accelerated.
• 100 per cent of the performance rights are assessed over a three year period and the number of Lendlease
securities that may be delivered on vesting is determined. The frst tranche will vest immediately thereafter, and
the second, third and fourth tranches will be deferred and will vest progressively four, fve and six years after the
grant date
• If the performance hurdle is not met, the awards are forfeited
• There is no retesting of the LTA grant.
• If the executive resigns and becomes engaged in activities that are competitive with the Group or is terminated for

• If the executive is terminated and if the Board considers vesting would provide a beneft that was unwarranted or

e. Restricted Securities Award (RSA)

The Restricted Securities Award (RSA), previously referred to as the LTA Minimum, is similar to fixed remuneration as it is not subject to performance conditions. It is designed to motivate and reward a limited number of key executives to deliver on the Group’s long term strategy and to allow them to have a sense of ownership and share in the value created for securityholders. The RSA (and previously referred to LTA Minimum) is not continuing from FY22 under the revised Executive Reward Strategy. Specifically, the objectives are to:

  • Align the interests of securityholders and our most senior executives

  • Support long term value creation

  • Better align reward to risk management (recognising that the RSA may be forfeited in certain circumstances).

• In the event of a change in control of the Group, the Board has the discretion to determine whether the vesting of
some or all performance rights should be accelerated.
• The frst tranche (i.e. 25%) will vest after three years and the second, third and fourth tranches will vest

f. Distinguished Executives Award (DE Award)

The Distinguished Executives Award (DE Award) is a program established to recognise and reward Lendlease technical mastery and significant contribution to the business. DE Awards are generally deferred over five and seven years. The deferred component is awarded as Lendlease securities and held in Lendlease employee security plan trusts on behalf of the employees. For employees to receive the deferred component, they must generally be employed by the Group at the time of vesting. DE Awards are valued based on the average price of on market purchases made in respect of these awards at the time of grant.

g. Executive Deferred Award (ED Award)

The Executive Deferred Award (ED Award) is an award that was made to a limited number of executives and senior managers in recognition of their role in supporting the Lendlease transformation program.

The ED Award comprises a one off grant of Lendlease deferred securities which vest in three equal tranches, with the final vesting three years after grant. Securities are held in Lendlease employee plan trusts for the deferral period. Refer to Note 29a ‘Employee Security Plans’ for further details. For employees to receive the deferred components in full, they must generally be employed by the Group at the time of vesting.

h. Deferred Equity Award (DEA)

The DEA is delivered to Senior Executives as a grant of rights with vesting over two years. The Board determined that an equity award was more appropriate than paying cash as a result of COVID. The key objectives of this award are to:

  • Recognise the achievement of non financial performance outcomes that support long term value creation

  • Consider the balance between motivating, recognising and rewarding executives with securityholder interests

  • Provide the Board with additional review points prior to vesting

  • Provide a retention element given that executives will be required to wait up to two years for the award to vest.

i. Pro Rata CEO Grant

The pro rata CEO Grant is designed to recognise the period served as Global CEO (one month) in FY21 for Anthony Lombardo. Arrangements for the Pro Rata CEO Grant

  • Pro Rata CEO Grant How the Pro Rata CEO Grant Works Performance Rights • A one-off grant of ‘performance rights’ to reflect time served as Global CEO in FY21 reduced to reflect the length of the period and value already granted for FY21

  • • All other terms, including the performance period, performance hurdles, termination rules remain as per the FY21 LTA Grant referred to above.

j. Amounts Recognised in the Financial Statements

LTI and LTA awards are valued using Monte-Carlo simulation methodology where the security price can be projected based on the assumptions underlying the Black-Scholes formula. Retention awards are valued by discounting the security price by the expected dividends assumed to be paid from the valuation date until the vesting date (if applicable). The model inputs include the Lendlease Group security price, a risk free interest rate, expected volatility and dividend yield. During the financial year ended 30 June 2021, a $55 million expense was recognised in the Income Statement in relation to equity settled security based payment awards (June 2020: $55 million).

37. Other Significant Accounting Policies

a. Foreign Currency Translation

Functional and Presentation Currency

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

A P Lombardo

Global Chief Executive Officer

Transactions and Balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into Australian dollars using the exchange rate on the date of the transactions. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated to Australian dollars at balance date.

Sydney, 16 August 2021

Foreign exchange gains or losses are recognised in the Income Statement for monetary assets and liabilities such as receivables and payables, except for qualifying cash flow hedges and qualifying net investment hedges in foreign operations, which are recognised in other comprehensive income. Refer to Note 25 ‘Hedging’ for further detail.

Translation differences on non monetary items, such as equities held at fair value through profit or loss, are reported as part of the fair value gain or loss.

Group Entities

The results and Statement of Financial Position of all Group entities that are not presented in Australian dollars (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) are translated as follows:

  • Revenue and expenses are translated at average exchange rates (unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the transaction rate, in which case revenue and expenses are translated at the date of the transactions)

  • Assets and liabilities for each Statement of Financial Position presented are translated at the closing rate at balance date

  • All resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income, in the foreign currency translation reserve.

Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing rate.

b. Goods and Services Tax

Revenue, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of goods and services tax (GST), except where the amount of GST incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. In these circumstances, the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.

Receivables and payables are stated with the amount of GST included. The net amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) is included as a current asset or liability in the Statement of Financial Position. Cash flows are included in the Statement of Cash Flows on a gross basis. The GST components of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to, the ATO are classified as operating cash flows.

The revenue on construction contracts may also include variations and claims, which fall under either the variable consideration or contract modification requirements of AASB 15.

Recoverability of Development Property Inventory (A$3,298m)

Recoverability of Development Property Inventory (A$3,298m) Recoverability of Development Property Inventory (A$3,298m)
Refer to Note 11 ‘Inventories’ to the Financial Report
The key audit matter How the matter was addressed in our audit
It is the Group’s policy to capitalise
development costs into inventory over the
life of its projects. Development costs
include the purchase of land, site
infrastructure costs, construction costs for
built form products and borrowing costs.
It is the Group’s policy to carry inventory at
the lower of cost and net realisable value.
The recoverability therefore of these
capitalised development costs is a
significant judgement made by the Group,
and their assessment is based on forecasts
of:

sales prices; and

construction and infrastructure costs to
complete the development.
Where a development is forecast to be loss
making and the inventory is no longer
considered to be recoverable, the Group
considers it to be impaired and it is their
policy for an expense to be recognised.
This was a key audit matter for us due to
many developments being long term which
increases the level of forecasting
judgement and audit complexity in
assessing estimated sales prices and future
costs to complete the development. We
considered the heightened risk in
estimating future sales prices, the timing of
sales, and future costs as a result of the
continued impact of COVID-19 to these
assumptions.
Our procedures included:

Selecting a sample of projects for testing using:
-
Data Analytic routines based on a number of
quantitative and qualitative factors, related to size,
duration and risk of projects; and
-
the Group’s project reporting tool.

For the sample selected, we:
-
compared expected sales prices to published
industry forecasts and comparable sales prices
achieved in the year, being alert to the impacts of
current challenging market conditions;
-
tested a sample of forecast construction and
infrastructure costs to underlying supplier
contracts, historical experience of similar costs,
and our industry expectation of cost contingency
levels and cost escalation assumptions; and
-
assessed expected sales prices, the volumes of
sales expected each period and holding costs in
light of current challenging market conditions,
using our industry knowledge.

Assessing disclosures included in the financial report
highlighting the key factors in determining
recoverability of development property inventory,
using our understanding obtained from our testing

impacts of COVID-19.

Asset Valuation

Refer to Note 12 ‘Equity accounted investments’ (A$3,758m), Note 13 ‘Other Financial Assets’ (A$1,087m) and Note 26 ‘Fair Value Measurement’ to the financial report

The key audit matterHow the matter was addressed in our audit

The Group is required to assess the value of equity accounted investments and other financial assets at each reporting date. The fair value of the properties held by various investment entities directly impacts the Group’s interests in these assets.

Our procedures included:

  • Selecting a sample of valuations performed by the Group, based on the significance of the asset to the Group’s financial position and performance;

  • • Assessing the scope, competence and objectivity of external valuation experts engaged by the Group for assets valued by external valuation experts;

  • • Assessing the impact of market uncertainty caveats included in valuations performed by the Group’s external valuation experts on the extent of our testing of key assumptions;

Valuations of assets are generally performed by the Group using internal valuation methodologies (discounted cash flow or capitalised income approach) or through the use of external valuation experts. External valuations are obtained on a routine basis by the Group each year, with the remaining investments being valued internally.

  • Evaluating and testing management’s review and approval of internal valuations based on the Group’s policies for internally valued assets;

  • Assessing the valuation methodology for consistency with accounting standards and industry practice for the asset’s class;

  • • Comparing, with market data published by commercial real estate agents, previous external valuations, our knowledge of the industry, and/or our knowledge of the asset and its historical performance, key assumptions such as:

Other financial assets are predominantly investments in entities which in turn own commercial and retail property. Accordingly, the Group’s valuation assumptions are predominantly the capitalisation of earnings rates, discount rates, future rental income, and leasing incentives.

  • discount rates

Equity accounted investments include the Group’s interest in the retirement living business. The key assumptions used by the Group in determining the value of retirement villages are discount rates, changes in village residents, current units/homes market prices and pricing growth rates.

  • changes in village residents

  • units/home current market prices

  • pricing growth rates

  • capitalisation of earnings rates

  • future rental income

  • leasing incentives

• Assessing disclosures included in the financial report highlighting the estimates and judgements in determining fair values of the Group’s equity accounted investments and other financial assets. We used our understanding obtained from our testing, including considerations of the impacts of COVID-19, against the requirements of the accounting standards.

Whilst COVID-19 continues to have significant impact on real estate valuations across the Group’s investments, the market has remained resilient highlighting the ongoing demand for high quality assets by investors.

==> picture [77 x 32] intentionally omitted <==

  • which are ordinarily strong sources of evidence regarding fair value;

  • • contain certain forward looking assumptions, with higher estimation uncertainty as the business is recovering from COVID-19, which are inherently challenging to audit; and

  • • lead to additional audit effort, often due to the high number of differing assumptions and models, across varying asset classes.

Other Information

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

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 Lendlease Corporation Limited 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 Lendlease Group’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 Lendlease Group or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

The assessment of the valuations of these assets is a key audit matter as they:

  • are inherently judgemental, amplified by the impact of COVID-19. There were fewer market transactions as a result,

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.

Securityholder information

Security information at a glance at 1 August 2021 (comparative 1 August 2020)

Securities exchange listing and code

Lendlease Group is listed on the Australian Securities Exchange and trades under the code LLC.

In the United States, Lendlease securities are traded on the ‘over the counter’ market in the form of sponsored American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) under the symbol LLESY. Each ADR represents one ordinary security. Information about ADRs is available from the depositary, The Bank of New York Mellon (www.adrbny.com).

Voting rights

Each stapled security in Lendlease Group and each ADR entitles the holder to one vote. Rights to Lendlease Group securities granted under Lendlease Group’s employee equity incentive plans do not carry voting rights.

Share Accumulation Plan

The Share Accumulation Plan is designed to be a convenient way for securityholders with a registered address in Australia or New Zealand to build their securityholdings without incurring transaction costs. The laws of other countries make it difficult for us to offer securities in this way. Lendlease securityholders are able to reinvest their distributions to acquire more Lendlease securities through the Distribution Reinvestment Plan (DRP) or the Share Election Plan (SEP). Securityholders may also make contributions of between $500 and $2,500 to acquire new Lendlease securities under the Share Purchase Plan (SPP). Together the DRP, SEP and SPP constitute the Share Accumulation Plan.

The rules of each of these plans are set out in the Share Accumulation Plan Information Sheet. Copies are available on the Lendlease website. Please note that the Share Election Plan and the Share Purchase Plan are currently suspended.
