Stapling of the Company Shares and LLT Units

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.

Dividends/Distributions

Dividends/Distributions
Amount Franked amount
per security per security
Interim dividend/distribution – payable 17 March 2021 15.0 cents 5.6 cents

The interim dividend/distribution is comprised of a dividend component franked to 50% of 11.2 cents per share payable by the Company and a trust distribution of 3.8 cents per unit payable by LLT. The unfranked portion of the Company dividend is sourced from the Conduit Foreign Income (CFI) account.

The record date for determining entitlement to the final distribution is 1 March 2021 (Record Date) and the distribution is payable on 17 March 2021.

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 2 March 2021. Subject to the rules of the DRP, the issue price is the arithmetic average of the daily volume weighted average price of Lendlease stapled securities traded on the Australian Securities Exchange for the period of five consecutive business days immediately following the Record Date, commencing on 2 March 2021. Stapled securities issued under the DRP rank equally with all other stapled securities on issue.

Group Highlights

The Group’s statutory profit after tax for the period ending 31 December 2020 was $196 million, down 37 per cent1. This included a loss of $2 million for the Non core segment and a loss of $7 million from property revaluations in the Investments segment.

The Performance and Outlook discloses profit after tax on both a statutory and operating basis. The Core operating profit metrics2 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.

The Group recorded Core operating profit after tax of $205 million for the period ended 31 December 2020. Core operating earnings per security was 29.8 cents with a return on equity of 5.9 per cent, below the target range as COVID-19 continued to adversely impact the performance of the Group. The distribution per security was 15.03 cents, representing a payout ratio of 50 per cent of Core operating profit.

The Group made significant progress on its strategic priorities. Investment partner initiatives were progressed with development joint ventures established across three urbanisation projects with a total end value of approximately $4 billion, including the Group’s first urbanisation project in Los Angeles. The sale of the Engineering business completed and the US Telecommunications and Energy businesses were divested.

Core segment EBITDA of $469 million, while rebounding from $126 million in H2 FY20, was down 21 per cent on the prior corresponding period. The challenging operating conditions

continued to affect each of the segments. Development pipeline conversions were limited, investment income and asset management fees were suppressed and construction revenue was constrained.

The largest contributor to the Development segment result was the creation of an investment partnership to deliver the first residential tower at Barangaroo. While the return outcome for the period was below target, progress continues to be made towards converting the development pipeline, including the launch of residential product, as well as securing additional urbanisation projects.

In the Construction segment, despite revenue being down, the portfolio performed well across all regions with returns at the top end of the target range. Revenue was constrained, with activity still impacted by delays in the commencement of new projects and ongoing productivity impacts across sites.

The Investments segment recovered from the worst of the COVID-19 impacts, although returns were below the target range. Ownership returns across retirement and co investment positions were lower, while asset management fees were impacted by lower activity across the retail sector. Earnings in the prior corresponding period were boosted by a substantial performance fee and asset sale profits.

Corporate costs of $64 million include Group Services costs of $54 million, which were down 4 per cent1 reflecting disciplined cost management, and treasury costs of $10 million, which were also lower. Net finance costs of $67 million were down 12 per cent1 due to lower average net debt and marginally lower cost of debt.

Portfolio Management Framework

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 reflects changes announced in August 2020. The target EBITDA segment earnings mix has been maintained, however is now based on operating profit. This implies an approximate ten percentage point higher contribution from Investments relative to recent performance, which is supported by a target capital allocation to Investments moving to the upper end of the range over time. The target capital allocation to each of the international regions has been raised by five percentage points.

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.

Returns for the Core business were challenged, reflecting difficult operating conditions: Development returns were below the target range with an expected uplift in the second half; the Construction margin was at the top end of the target range; and Investments was below the target range.

The balance sheet remains resilient with gearing below the mid point of the target range and total liquidity of $4.7 billion.

Group outlook

The near term outlook for the Core business centres on the conversion of several commercial and residential opportunities currently being progressed across the Group’s development pipeline.

Further progress was made on the Group’s strategic agenda, including the addition of a new major urbanisation project to the pipeline. Post balance date, the Group realigned its exposure to the Retirement Living sector with an investment partner acquiring 25 per cent of the Retirement Living business.

The Group is well placed for long term growth and continues to implement its strategy of delivering urban precincts with a strong focus on placemaking and environmental and social outcomes. Over the next decade, the Group will focus on growing those areas of the business that have the greatest potential to drive securityholder value.

The Group’s end to end capability across all aspects of real estate and a proven track record is reflected in the $109.5 billion development pipeline, including a portfolio of 22 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 over time.

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 $37.9 billion of funds under management and expand the Group’s $27.6 billion of assets under management. In addition, the Group will pursue other investment opportunities alongside investment partners where the Group has a competitive edge.

COVID-19 Impacts across the Group

The Group has incorporated the impacts of COVID-19 into its review process, and increased disclosure in the 31 December 2020 financial statements where applicable. This process has highlighted the below impacts:

Development Segment

Operating activities: Products and services include the development of inner city mixed use developments, apartments, communities, retirement, retail, commercial assets and social and economic infrastructure.

Impacts: The Development segment has experienced various COVID-19 impacts. There have been delays in converting opportunities across the Group’s urbanisation pipeline, with uncertainty affecting both tenant demand and investment partner appetite in the office sector. Ongoing uncertainty may impact targeted conversions in the second half of FY21. Demand for new apartment launches has been impacted, especially from the investor segment of the market. Settlement delays have occurred in the apartment for sale product that has completed, with some purchases requiring more time to settle. While the initial impact on the Communities business had been negative, recent government stimulus measures, including first home buyer schemes, have resulted in stronger enquiry levels and sales. The weaker operating environment has provided the Group with the opportunity to secure new urbanisation projects alongside its investment partners on attractive terms.

Construction Segment

Operating activities: 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.

Impacts: The predominant impact from COVID-19 during the period was that of constraining revenue. This included the impact of lower productivity on sites, projects being put on hold, and delays in the commencement or securing of new projects. As a result, revenue recovered only modestly from H2 FY20 levels while being down 21 per cent on the prior corresponding period. Cost management measures implemented following the onset of the pandemic have cushioned the impact on construction margins. Declining private sector activity, particularly in the US, has impacted new work secured. Conversely, public sector activity has increased, with an acceleration of projects being brought to market. This has resulted in higher new work secured in Australia and a rebound in new work secured in Europe compared to the prior corresponding period.

Investments Segment

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

Impacts: Asset management fees and investment income were suppressed as a result of COVID-19, although there was some recovery from the worst of the impacts that were experienced in H2 FY20. The impact was pronounced in the retail sector where retail leasing and asset management fees were significantly lower than in the prior corresponding period. Rent relief provided to retail tenants, along with lower leasing activity, were the key drivers. The Group’s investment portfolio was impacted by the same factors, with lower investment income derived from retail investments in particular. The performance of the Retirement Living business was also affected, with returns well below target levels in the period. Property valuation declines were only modest in the period, although future movements may impact both fund and asset management fees.

Government wage programs

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 period.

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

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

The amounts under these programs are not material in the period.

Development performance

The Development segment delivered EBITDA of $244 million, down 10 per cent1. While the performance of the business improved from the significant COVID-19 impacts in H2 FY20, progress on converting opportunities remained difficult.

The challenging operating environment resulted in a return on invested capital of 7.2 per cent, below the bottom end of the target range of 10-13 per cent. Invested capital rose modestly from FY20 to $5.0 billion as the Group invests in the development pipeline.

While the return outcome was below target, 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.

The investment partnership with Mitsubishi Estate to deliver the first residential tower at One Sydney Harbour, Barangaroo contributed $147 million to EBITDA. There were 440 apartments for sale settlements at projects including Melbourne and London, and 1,043 land lot settlements across the Australian Communities portfolio.

New residential product entered delivery at 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 $1.8 billion, included the completion of commercial and residential buildings at Melbourne Quarter. Work in progress2, the lead indicator for future production, ended the period at $12.2 billion. This includes $5.2 billion of commercial buildings in Melbourne, Milan, Sydney and Kuala Lumpur; $4.5 billion of apartments for sale in Sydney, Kuala Lumpur, London, Boston, Chicago and New York; and $2.1 billion of apartments for rent in London, Chicago and Shanghai.

Two urbanisation projects were added to the pipeline. In New York, 1 Java Street will 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. The project has an estimated end value of $0.8 billion and will include a mix of apartments for rent and office space.

Development outlook

The estimated end value of the development pipeline edged lower to $109.5 billion. While the Group secured new projects, this was offset by the impact of foreign exchange movements on the international pipeline and, to a lesser extent, product completed in the period. The pipeline comprises $96.2 billion of urbanisation projects and $13.3 billion of communities projects. The globally diversified portfolio includes 22 major urbanisation projects across ten gateway cities.

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 new target is to produce greater than $8 billion of product per annum over time, across our urbanisation and communities projects. While this will not be achievable in FY21, there is $12.2 billion of work in progress, and significantly more is expected to be added over coming periods.

The Group is making solid progress on the conversion of both commercial and residential opportunities across the existing pipeline. Nearer term commercial opportunities that are in various stages of

tenant enquiry and investment partner discussion include Melbourne Quarter, International Quarter London, Milan Innovation District and 30 Van Ness, San Francisco. In residential, following the successful establishment of the investment partnership to deliver tower one at One Sydney Harbour, Barangaroo, the Group will look to establish a similar partnership to deliver the second tower. Further launches of apartment for sale product will be determined by market demand while investor appetite for apartments for rent remains strong.

Enquiry levels have improved across the Australian Communities portfolio, boosted by Government stimulus measures, however settlements in FY21 are expected to be below the annual target of 3,000-4,000 lots.

While a significant number of the 22 major urbanisation projects are recent additions to the development pipeline, important planning milestones have been achieved. The conversion of these projects into the delivery phase over the coming periods will be key to the Group achieving its production target.

Construction performance

The Construction segment delivered a solid result as the business rebounded from the significant COVID-19 disruptions experienced in H2 FY20. EBITDA of $104 million was up three per cent on the prior corresponding period.

Revenue of $3.4 billion was down 21 per cent1, 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 25 per cent1 and 24 per cent1 respectively.

The EBITDA margin rose to 3.0 per cent, at the top end of the target range of 2-3 per cent. The portfolio performed well across all regions. Performance was aided by contributions from projects either nearing or reaching completion. We anticipate some of this benefit to dissipate in H2 FY21. In addition, disciplined cost management implemented in response to COVID-19 had a positive impact on returns.

Completions included a major Defence contract and the commercial and residential towers at Melbourne Quarter.

New work secured of $4.9 billion was up from $3.1 billion with the Australian and European business benefitting from public sector activity.

In Australia, new work secured of $2.3 billion was underpinned by several projects in the Defence sector, the Tweed Heads Valley Hospital, Cairns Convention Centre, and the Geelong Arts Centre. This was supplemented by private sector projects including the office tower at 555 Collins Street, Melbourne.

The European business secured $1.2 billion of new work, a strong result for the region. This was predominantly from Government clients and includes projects for the London Borough of Camden, the Ministry of Justice and Manchester City Council.

New work secured of $1.2 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. Government clients and the Australian region were the key drivers of new work secured, offsetting reduced activity in the Americas and delays in the conversion of internal development work.

Construction outlook

The outlook for the Construction segment has improved, although remains at risk from ongoing COVID-19 related uncertainty and disruption. Backlog revenue remains solid at $14.5 billion, with $11.8 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 the 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 product 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 $8.2 billion in backlog revenue. Key projects include Sydney Place, several Defence contracts and the Sydney Metro Martin Place and Sydney Metro Victoria Cross Integrated Station Developments.

The established Construction business in the Americas has good market share in its target cities and sectors with backlog revenue of $3.6 billion. Subdued activity in recent periods has resulted in a substantial decline in backlog. The strong growth in the urbanisation pipeline to $27.9 billion in the region provides substantial opportunities for future construction backlog.

Backlog revenue in Europe is $2.0 billion. Recent project wins provide near term certainty of activity while Europe’s $49.0 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.

Beyond the current backlog, there is more than $3.3 billion of work for which the Group is in a preferred position. The business is well placed to convert a significant proportion of this preferred work into backlog revenue over coming periods.

Investments performance

The Investments segment delivered EBITDA of $121 million, down substantially on the prior corresponding period, but up substantially on the $76 million in H2 FY20 as performance recovered from the worst of the COVID-19 impacts. The segment generated a return on invested capital of 5.3 per cent, just below the revised target of 6-9 per cent.

Management EBITDA, derived from funds and asset management activities across the Group’s Investments platform, was $71 million, down from $120 million1, driven by lower performance fees and reduced asset management fees, predominantly related to the retail sector.

Funds management revenue of $79 million was down from $133 million due primarily to the significant performance fee generated from the completion of Paya Lebar Quarter in the prior corresponding period.

Asset management revenue of $45 million was down from $57 million. Lower retail leasing and asset management fees in Australia and Asia were received as a result of the impacts of COVID-19 on activity across the retail sector compared to pre COVID-19 levels. We expect further recovery in retail over the coming period, although the sector remains challenged. Residential asset management fees now represent the largest component of the asset management business.

There is approximately $2.0 billion of committed redevelopment activity across the US military housing portfolio. An additional $1.0 billion of development work is expected to both be committed and commence in H2 FY21, contributing significantly to asset management fees.

Ownership EBITDA was $50 million, down from $104 million, reflecting lower investment income and the non-recurrence of profit on the sale of assets in the prior period. Earnings recovered from a small loss in H2 FY20. Ownership earnings exclude the impact of property revaluations across the investment portfolio.

The Group’s investments closed the period at $3.7 billion, down from $4.0 billion at 30 June following the sale of the US Telecommunications Infrastructure business. The investment portfolio is well diversified, with the predominant exposure across the retirement, office, retail and residential sectors.

The trading performance of the Retirement Living business was subdued with resales across the established village portfolio down 19 per cent1, although average prices were higher. This resulted in low single digit returns. The challenging retail environment also resulted in lower returns across the Group’s retail investments.

Lendlease Half Year Consolidated Financial Report December 2020 Directors’ Report 13

Investments outlook

Funds under management grew three per cent1 to $37.9 billion. The growth was underpinned by a new $2 billion multi sector investment mandate secured in Australia, additional residential for rent product in the US and the acquisition of an additional 25 per cent interest in 1 Farrer Place, Sydney by APPF Commercial. 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 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.

The Group’s investments closed the period at $3.7 billion. This includes $1.4 billion in retirement, $0.9 billion in retail, $0.8 billion in office, $0.5 billion in residential and a small amount in industrial. Post balance date, 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 at book value. This reduced the Group’s interest to 50 per cent. The approximately $460 million in proceeds will be recycled into other investment opportunities.

The Group’s strategy is to significantly grow its investment portfolio over time. This 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. In addition to leveraging strong existing relationships with global investors, the Group will look to broaden its investor base.

Assets under management declined slightly to $27.6 billion with the foreign exchange translation impact on the US residential portfolio more than offsetting an additional $0.6 billion of assets. Despite the challenging operating environment, valuation declines were modest.

Non core segment

The Group completed the sale of the Engineering business to Acciona Infrastructure Asia Pacific (Acciona) on 9 September 2020. Total proceeds from the sale of the Engineering business are estimated to be $197 million, comprising the agreed sale price of $160 million and additional estimated completion adjustments of $37 million. 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, Lendlease retained three projects. The Kingsford Smith Drive and NorthConnex projects reached practical completion and were operational during the period.

The remaining project for the Group is the Melbourne Metro Project, which is scheduled to complete in 2025. 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 position of the project following the agreement remained consistent with the position taken in the financial statements as at 30 June 2020.

The EBITDA for the period was $24 million, including the final $10 million of exit costs that forms part of the $550 million estimated costs to exit the Non core segment. This reflects the performance of the Engineering business prior to the completion of the sale, the retained engineering projects post the sale and the Services business.

The Services business delivered a solid underlying operating result. However, additional costs of $11 million associated with the wind up of the Energy & Technology business detracted from the otherwise robust performance. New work secured of $0.8 billion reflected contract wins across the transport, water and telecommunications sectors. Backlog revenue of $2.5 billion, up from $2.2 billion, provides a solid base of work. In addition, the business is well placed to secure future projects in target sectors, including an expected boost from additional public sector spending.

Inventories

Inventories decreased by four per cent. The reclassification of International Quarter London – South into inventories following consolidation of the Group’s interest in the project was more than offset by the formation of a new investment partnership and subsequent reclassification of tower one at One Sydney Harbour to Equity Accounted Investments.

Equity accounted investments

Equity accounted investments increased by one per cent. Additional contributions for the newly secured urbanisation projects in New York and Los Angeles were the main source of growth, more than offsetting residential apartment product that settled during the period.

Other asset movements

The decline in Investment properties reflects the sale of the US Telecommunications business. The sale of the Engineering business resulted in Disposal Group assets held for sale declining to zero, including a working capital cash balance transfer of $411 million.

Total assets, total liabilities and net assets

Total assets decreased seven per cent and total liabilities declined by 12 per cent, with the sale of the Engineering business being a key contributor in each case.

Financing cash flow

Net cash inflow from financing activities was $366 million, with other adjustments of $9 million included in the total inflow of $375 million. The Group continued to diversify its sources of financing with the issue of a $500 million green bond, a first for the Group and the largest green bond issued by an Australian non-financial corporate. The Group remains in a strong financial position with $4.7 billion of liquidity.

Operating and investing cash flow

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 $735 million. The establishment of the development joint venture to deliver tower one, One Sydney Harbour resulted in an approximate $500 million decrease in the underlying operating cash flow and an equivalent increase in underlying investing cash flow. This largely offsets the operating cash inflow associated with the $588 million of PLLACes proceeds in H2 FY20. 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 H1 FY21 was 86 per cent.

Underlying investing cash outflow was $161 million. The largest source of investing cash outflows was the sale of the Engineering business, with the first instalment of the sale proceeds more than offset by the working capital cash balance transfer. The Group also continued to invest across a range of urbanisation projects during the period. Investing

cash inflows during the period included proceeds from the sale of the US Telecommunications business and the benefit associated with the establishment of the One Sydney Harbour development joint venture.

1. $451 million of cash and cash equivalents was classified as Disposal Group assets held for sale at FY20. A working capital cash balance of $411 million transferred on the completion of the sale of the Engineering business.

Lendlease Corporation Limited (the Company) is incorporated and domiciled in Australia. The consolidated financial report of the Company for the half year ended 31 December 2020 comprises the Company including its controlled entities and 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 investment 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 22 February 2021.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Basis of Preparation

The consolidated financial report is a general purpose financial report, which:

  • Has been prepared in accordance with AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Act 2001;

  • Complies with the recognition and measurement requirements of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB);

  • Should be read in conjunction with the 30 June 2020 annual consolidated financial report and any public announcements by the Group during the half year in accordance with continuous disclosure obligations arising under the Corporations Act 2001 . The half year financial report does not contain all the information required for a full financial report;

  • Is presented in Australian dollars, with all values rounded off to the nearest million dollars unless otherwise indicated, in accordance with ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) instrument 2016/191;

  • Has re-presented comparative financial information in the Income Statement, Statement of Comprehensive Income and related Notes to include the Services business and retained Engineering projects as part of continuing operations. The comparative information in the Statement of Financial Position, Statement of Changes in Equity, Statement of Cash Flows and related Notes have not been re-presented. Refer to Note 21 ‘Discontinued Operations’ for further details; and

  • Is prepared under the historical cost basis except for the following assets and liabilities, which are stated at their fair value: derivative financial instruments, fair value through profit or loss investments, investment properties and liabilities for cash settled share based compensation plans. Recognised assets and liabilities that are hedged are stated at fair value in respect of the risk that is hedged. Refer to the specific accounting policies within the notes to the financial statements for the basis of valuation of assets and liabilities measured at fair value.

The preparation of an interim financial report that complies with AASB 134 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 accounting policies have been consistently applied by the Group and are consistent with those applied in the 30 June 2020 annual consolidated financial report.

  • These significant accounting estimates and judgements have been considered in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic and the impact of the current economic conditions.

At 31 December 2020, 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 COVID-19 pandemic.

The Group has:

  • $3,813 million in undrawn facilities. See Note 14 ‘Borrowings and Financing Arrangements’

  • $899 million in cash and cash equivalents. See Note 18 ‘Cash and Cash Equivalents’

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.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements continued

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

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 Group Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director (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 now receives information and assesses segment performance under these new 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

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 economic 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 21 ‘Discontinued Operations’ for further detail.

1. The presentation of the material associates and joint ventures has been reclassified to separately present Cost of sales, Unrealised fair value gains/(losses) and Finance costs. 2. The underlying investments in the material associates and joint ventures are office, retail and retirement living investment properties measured at fair value. At 31 December 2020, valuations were undertaken on the underlying assets. The carrying values of the investments are considered recoverable as they correlate with the net assets of the associates and joint ventures, which have been valued at 31 December 2020.

a. Issuance of Securities

As at 31 December 2020, the Group had 688 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 2 March 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 2 March 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 of 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.

19. Fair Value Measurement

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 COVID-19 pandemic into consideration to determine fair value at 31 December 2020. 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; and

  • 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 includes consideration of counterparty risk adjustments.

b. Fair Value Measurements

The valuation methods for each level have been defined as follows:

  • 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; and

  • 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.

20. 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:

  • 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.

21. Discontinued Operations

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; and

  • 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. Comparatives have also been re-presented for the Income Statement, Statement of Comprehensive Income and corresponding Notes to include the Services business and retained Engineering projects as continuing operations of the Group.

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. The discontinued operations represent the Engineering business sold, excluding the projects retained by the Group.

On 28 April 2020, the Group announced the sales process for the Services business has been paused given the uncertainty in market conditions. The Services business no longer meets 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 31 December 2020. As a result, the 31 December 2019 results have been re-presented to include the Services business and the Engineering projects retained by the Group as part of the continuing operations.

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

To the members of Lendlease Corporation Limited

Based on our review, which is not an audit, we have not become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the Half Year Financial Report of Lendlease Corporation Limited does not comply with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:

  • [giving a true and fair view of ] Lendlease Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2020 and of its performance for the Half Year ended on that date; and

  • [complying with ] [Australian ] Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

The Half Year Financial Report comprises:

  • [Consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 ] December 2020;

  • [Consolidated income statement, Consolidated ] statement of comprehensive income, Consolidated statement of changes in equity and Consolidated statement of cash flows for the Half Year ended on that date;

  • [Notes 1 to 22 comprising a summary of significant ] accounting policies and other explanatory information; and

  • [The Directors’ Declaration. ]

The Lendlease Group (the Group) consists of Lendlease Corporation Limited and the entities it controlled at the Half Year’s end or from time to time during the Half Year and Lendlease Trust.

Shares in Lendlease Corporation Limited and units in Lendlease Trust are jointly traded as a Stapled Security on the Australian Securities Exchange under the name of Lendlease Group.

Basis for Conclusion

We conducted our review in accordance with ASRE 2410 Review of a Financial Report Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity . Our responsibilities are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Review of the Financial Report section of our report.

We are independent of the Group in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including Independence Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the annual financial report in Australia.

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Half Year Financial Report

The Directors of the Company are responsible for:

  • the preparation of the Half Year Financial Report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 ; and

  • such internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the Half Year Financial Report that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Review of the Half Year Financial Report

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the Half Year Financial Report based on our review. ASRE 2410 requires us to conclude whether we have become aware of any matter that makes us believe that the Half Year Financial Report does not comply with the Corporations Act 2001 including giving a true and fair view of the Group’s financial position as at 31 December 2020 and its performance for the Half Year ended on that date; and complying with Australian Accounting Standard AASB 134 Interim Financial Reporting and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .

A review of a Half Year Financial Report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
