Mirvac Group capital management initiatives

Summary:

  • A$500 million fully underwritten equity raising (the “Offer”);

  • Gearing will be reduced from 32.5 per cent, to 26.6 per cent[1] ;

  • Available liquidity of approximately A$1.3 billion, sufficient to meet all forecast capital commitments over FY09 & FY10;

  • Revised earnings guidance to reflect current market conditions; and

  • Continued focus on investing in Australian investment grade properties and delivering pre-eminent Australian residential developments.

Mirvac Group (“Mirvac” or the “Group”) announced today that it was undertaking a capital raising to ensure its balance sheet and liquidity position are protected from the current volatility in the capital markets and threat of any economic slowdown.

Managing Director of Mirvac Group, Mr Nicholas Collishaw, said, “In these uncertain and volatile markets the Board and management have determined that it is prudent to pro-actively undertake a number of initiatives to strengthen Mirvac’s balance sheet, and position the Group to flexibly respond to changing market conditions.”

“Mirvac remains committed to its strategy of being an Australian focused business. Our business continues to focus on its core competencies of investing in investment grade Australian properties that provide stable income streams, as well as delivering pre-eminent Australian residential developments. Mirvac’s position as Australia’s leading premium residential developer was further strengthened with last weekend’s release of Mirvac’s latest oceanfront development, The Royal apartments in Newcastle, NSW, with A$50.0 million of exchanged contracts (subject to cooling off period) received for stage 1 of the project.”

Capital management & strategic initiatives

The Offer is part of a number of capital management and strategic initiatives, that Mirvac has implemented to strengthen its balance sheet and reduce gearing, including:

  • A$500 million fully underwritten equity raising to repay debt, comprising an A$72 million institutional placement and A$428 million accelerated non-renounceable entitlement offer at a price of A$0.90 per stapled security;

  • pro-actively engaging early with its banks on the roll-over of the approximately A$1.1 billion debt facility due to expire in June 2009 (A$458m drawn at 24 October 2008);

  • selectively delaying the commencement of certain development starts, where management considers it prudent to do so, given the current dislocation in real estate and capital markets;

  • reducing its non-core investment management offerings, with sales processes in place for several noncore funds; and

  • conducting a strategic review of all corporate overheads.

1 Adjusted for illustrative pro forma 25 basis point increase in capitalisation rates across Mirvac’s A$4.1bn Investment Division including equity accounted non-residential property investments, A$14.0m provision against mezzanine loan investments and A$14.4m provision against investment management commitments as set out in the management presentation dated 5 November 2008.

The entitlement offer will allow all persons who are securityholders as at 7.00pm (AEDT) on 5 November 2008 and have a registered address in Australia or New Zealand to participate in the Offer on a pro-rata basis to their existing holdings. All stapled securities issued as a result of the Offer will be fully paid and rank equally with existing Mirvac stapled securities on issue.

Benefits of the Offer

Given the current market volatility, Mirvac’s Board and management believe the Offer will provide a number of benefits to Mirvac, including:

  • strengthening Mirvac’s balance sheet in an environment where investors are focused on capital security for their investments;

  • reducing gearing from 32.5 per cent from 26.6 per cent[2] ;

  • increasing existing debt covenant headroom; and

  • increasing available funds to approximately A$1.3 billion, which is sufficient to meet all forecast capital commitments over FY09 & FY10.

Mr Collishaw added, “Adopting an effective de-leveraging strategy in this market is imperative as it positions the Group to manage the business through the current market whilst also providing flexibility for future opportunities. We will continue to adopt this prudent approach in managing Mirvac’s gearing.”

Revised FY09 earnings guidance

Mirvac’s Board and management have undertaken a detailed review of Mirvac’s earnings in light of the current market deterioration, and believe that it is prudent to update the guidance previously provided on 22 July 2008. Earnings for FY09 have been revised to 13.4 cents per stapled security on a post equity issuance basis (15.9 cents per stapled security pre equity issuance), from previous guidance of 23-25 cents per stapled security.

Mr Collishaw said, “Importantly revised guidance is based on a stable rental income stream from Mirvac’s investment (Mirvac Property Trust) portfolio and a conservative assessment of Mirvac’s development and investment management earnings.”

“The revised development earnings reflect a conservative assessment of forecast residential settlements and sales based on current market conditions, which are being impacted by negative consumer sentiment and low home ownership affordability. Despite the current uncertainty, Mirvac believes that the residential market and demand for Mirvac residential product should be supported in the long term by an undersupply of housing, rising rental costs, government stimulus, and falling interest rates.”

Given the conservative approach to the revised FY09 earnings guidance, Mirvac intends to distribute 13.4 cents per stapled security for the year ending 30 June 2009.

Mr Collishaw added, “Whilst we face uncertain economic times, our Board and management remain committed to executing our strategy and delivering long-term value for securityholders.“

risKs

Funding

The real estate investment and development industry tends to be highly capital intensive. The ability of Mirvac to raise funds on favourable terms for future refinancing, development and acquisitions depends on a number of factors including general economic, political, and capital and credit market conditions. The inability of Mirvac to raise funds on favourable terms for future acquisitions, developments and refinancing could adversely affect its ability to acquire or develop new properties or refinance its debt.

Market price

The market price of Mirvac securities will fluctuate due to various factors including general movements in interest rates, the Australian and international general investment markets, and economic conditions, global geo-political events and hostilities, investor perceptions and other factors that may affect the Group’s financial performance and position. The market price of Mirvac securities could trade on the ASX at a price below their issue price.

Credit Ratings

The price of Mirvac securities and Mirvac’s ability to access debt at a reasonable cost may be affected by a ratings downgrade.

Interest rates

Adverse fluctuations in interest rates, to the extent that they are not hedged or forecast, may impact Mirvac’s earnings before interest and asset values due to any impact on property markets in which the Group operates.

Debt covenants

Mirvac has various covenants in relation to its banking facilities, including interest cover and gearing ratio requirements. Factors such as falls in asset values and the inability to achieve timely asset sales at prices acceptable to Mirvac could lead to a breach in debt covenants. In such an event, Mirvac’s lenders may require their loans to be repaid immediately.

Taxation implications

You should be aware that future changes in Australian taxation law including changes in interpretation or application of the law by the courts or taxation authorities in Australia, may affect taxation treatment of an investment in Mirvac securities, or the holding and disposal of those securities. Further, changes in tax law, or changes in the way tax law is expected to be interpreted, in the various jurisdictions in which Mirvac operates, may impact the future tax liabilities of the Group.

Realisation of assets

Property assets are by their nature illiquid investments. This may make it difficult to alter the balance of income sources in the Mirvac in the short term in response to changes in economic or other conditions.

Investment in Funds and Joint Ventures

The net asset value of Mirvac’s investment in Funds and Joint Ventures may decrease if the value of the property assets in those funds were to decline.

Employees

The Group is reliant on retaining and attracting quality senior executives and other employees. The loss of the services of any of Mirvac’s senior management or key personnel, or the inability to attract new qualified personnel, could adversely affect the Group’s operations.

Customers

Insolvency or financial distress of Mirvac’s tenants may reduce the income received from its assets.

Counterparty/credit risk

Third parties, such as tenants, developers and other counterparties to contracts may not be willing or able to perform their obligations to the Group.

Insurance

The Group purchases insurance, customarily carried by property owners, managers, developers and construction entities, that provides a degree of protection for its assets, liabilities and people. There are however certain risks that are uninsurable (e.g nuclear, chemical or biological incidents) or risks where the insurance coverage is reduced (e.g cyclone or earthquakes). Further, insurance markets may be detrimentally affected by the current global downturn such that insurance becomes more expensive or the financial ability of insurance companies to respond to claims is diminished.

Property market risks

Mirvac will be subject to the prevailing property market conditions in the countries and sectors in which it operates. Adverse changes in market sentiment or market conditions may impact Mirvac’s ability to acquire, manage or develop assets, as well as the value of Mirvac’s properties. These impacts could lead to a reduction in earnings or the carrying value of assets.

Change in value and income of properties

Returns from investment in properties largely depend on the rental income generated from the property and the expenses incurred in its operation, including the management and maintenance of the property as well as the changes in the market value of the property. Rental income and/or the market value of properties may be adversely affected by a number of factors, including:

  • a) the overall conditions in the national and local economy;

  • b) local real estate conditions;

  • c) the perception of prospective customers regarding attractiveness and convenience of properties and the intensity of competition with other participants in the real estate industry;

  • d) the convenience and quality of properties;

  • e) unforeseen capital expenditure;

f) supply of developable land, new properties and other investment properties; and

g) investor demand/liquidity in investments.

Acquisitions

A key element of Mirvac’s future strategy will involve the acquisition of properties to add to its property portfolio. Whilst it is Mirvac’s policy to conduct a thorough due diligence process in relation to any such acquisition, risks remain that are inherent in such acquisitions.

Development

The Group is involved in the development of residential and non-residential real estate. Development risks include changes in construction costs and development timetables.

Regulatory issues and changes in law

Mirvac is subject to the usual business risk that there may be changes in laws that reduce income or increase costs.

Change in capitalisation rates

The capitalisation rates considered appropriate by independent valuers may change in response to market conditions.

Litigation and disputes

Legal and other disputes (including industrial disputes) may arise from time to time in the ordinary course of operations. Any such dispute may impact on earnings or affect the value of Mirvac’s assets.

Competition

Competition may lead to an oversupply through overdevelopment or to prices for existing properties or services being inflated via competing bids by prospective purchasers.

Fixed nature of significant costs

Significant expenditures associated with each investment, such as mortgage payments, maintenance costs, employee costs and taxes are generally not reduced when circumstances cause a reduction in income from investment. The value of an asset owned by the Group may be adversely affected if the income from the asset declines and other related expenses remain unchanged.

Forward looking statements

There can be no guarantee that the assumptions and contingencies in which the forward looking statements, opinions and estimates (including projections, guidance on future earnings and estimates) will ultimately prove to be valid or accurate. The forward looking statements, opinions and estimates depend on various factors, many of which are outside the control of the Group.

OH&S

If the Group fails to comply with necessary OH&S legislative requirements across the jurisdictions the Group operates, it could result in fines, penalties and compensation for damages as well as reputational damage to the Group.
