Notes to the Financial Statements

For the year ended 31 December 2025

Note 1 – Basis of preparation of the Financial Report

(a) Corporate information

This financial report of Scentre Group Trust 1 (SGT1) and its controlled entities (collectively the Trust) for the year ended 31 December 2025 was approved in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors of Scentre Management Limited as Responsible Entity of SGT1.

SGT1 is domiciled in Australia. The nature of the operations and principal activity of the Trust are described in the Directors’ Report.

(b) Accounting for the Trust

The Trust is part of Scentre Group which is a stapled entity comprising Scentre Group Limited (SGL), SGT1, Scentre Group Trust 2 (SGT2), Scentre Group Trust 3 (SGT3) and their respective controlled entities. Scentre Group was established on 30 June 2014. The securities of each of SGL, SGT1, SGT2 and SGT3 are stapled and trade as one security on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) under the code SCG. The stapled securities of SGL, SGT1, SGT2 and SGT3 cannot be traded separately.

(c) Going concern

This financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis. In making this assessment, the Directors have considered:

  • The Trust forms part of Scentre Group and is party to Scentre Group’s cross-guarantee arrangements in respect of Scentre Group’s debt facilities and bonds; and

  • Scentre Group’s ability to meet its financial obligations over the next 12 months, using cash flow sensitivity analysis and having regard to maturity of interest bearing liabilities, funding requirements, operating cash earnings and available financing facilities. At 31 December 2025, $4.7 billion (31 December 2024: $3.2 billion) of external financing facilities and intragroup facilities within Scentre Group were available to the Trust which are sufficient to cover short term liabilities.

(e) Statement of Compliance

This financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year.

The amendments in AASB 2023-5 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Lack of Exchangeability became applicable on 1 January 2025 but did not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Trust.

Certain Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations have recently been issued or amended but are not yet effective and have not been adopted by the Trust for the year ended 31 December 2025. The impact of these new standards or amendments to the standards and interpretations (to the extent relevant to the Trust) is as follows:

  • AASB 2024-2 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (effective 1 January 2026)

  • This amends AASB 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures and AASB 9 Financial Instruments to:

  • (i) clarify the date of recognition and derecognition of some financial assets and liabilities;

  • (ii) clarify and add further guidance for assessing whether a financial asset meets the solely payments of principal and interest criterion;

  • (iii) add new disclosures for certain instruments with contractual terms that can change cash flows (such as some financial instruments with features linked to the achievement of environment, social and governance targets); and

  • (iv) update the disclosures for equity instruments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income.

These amendments are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements on application.

(d) Basis of Accounting

This financial report is a general purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 (Corporations Act), Australian Accounting Standards and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board. This financial report has also been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for investment properties, investment properties within equity accounted investments, derivative financial instruments and financial assets at fair value through profit and loss.

This financial report is presented in Australian dollars.

Notes to the Financial Statements

For the year ended 31 December 2025

Note 1 – Basis of preparation of the Financial Report (continued)

(e) Statement of Compliance (continued)

  • AASB 2024-3 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Annual Improvements Volume 11 (effective 1 January 2026)

  • This makes minor improvements to address inconsistencies or to clarify requirements in:

  • (i) AASB 1 First-time Adoption of Australian Accounting Standards – to improve consistency between AASB 1 and AASB 9 in relation to the requirements for hedge accounting, and improve the understandability of AASB 1;

  • (ii) AASB 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures – to improve consistency in the language used in AASB 7 with the language used in AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement ;

  • (iii) AASB 9 Financial Instruments – to clarify how a lessee accounts for the derecognition of a lease liability when it is extinguished and address an inconsistency between AASB 9 and AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers in relation to the term ‘transaction price’;

  • (iv) AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements – to clarify the requirements in relation to determining de facto agents of an entity; and

  • (v) AASB 107 Statement of Cash Flows – to replace the term ‘cost method’ with ‘at cost’ as the term is no longer defined in Australian Accounting Standards.

These amendments are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements on application.

  • AASB 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements (effective from 1 January 2027)

This replaces AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements with a focus on updates to the income statement. The key presentation and disclosure requirements established under the new standard relate to:

  • (i) the structure of the income statement with defined subtotals;

  • (ii) requirement to determine the most useful structure summary for presenting expenses in the income statement;

  • (iii) the disclosure of management-defined performance measures in a single note within the financial statements; and

The presentation and new disclosure requirements under the new standard are expected to have a material impact on the financial statements of the Trust on application. The Trust will apply the new standard from its mandatory effective date of 1 January 2027 and the comparative information for the financial year ending 31 December 2026 will be restated in accordance with AASB 18.

  • AASB 2014-10 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture (effective from 1 January 2028)

  • This amends AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and AASB 128 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures to address an inconsistency between the requirements of AASB 10 and AASB 128 in dealing with the sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture. This amendment is not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements on application.

(f) Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of this financial report requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its judgements and estimates on historical experience and various other factors it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.

Further details of judgements, estimates and assumptions applied may be found in the relevant notes to the financial statements, in particular, Note 2: Segment reporting, Note 3: Trade debtors and receivables, Note 4: Investment properties, Note 5: Details of shopping centre investments and Note 22: Fair value of assets and liabilities.

(g) Comparative information

Where applicable, certain comparative figures are restated in order to comply with the current period’s presentation of the financial statements.

(h) Rounding

In accordance with ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191, the amounts shown in this financial report have been rounded to the nearest tenth of a million dollars, unless otherwise indicated. Amounts shown as 0.0 represent amounts less than $50,000 that have been rounded down.

  • (iv) enhanced principles on aggregation and disaggregation which apply to the primary financial statements and notes in general.

Note 2 – Segment Reporting

Geographic segments

The Trust has investments in a portfolio of shopping centres across Australia and New Zealand.

The Trust’s segment income and expenses as well as the details of segment assets have been prepared on a proportionate format on a geographic basis. The proportionate format presents the net income from and net assets in equity accounted properties on a gross format whereby the underlying components of net income and net assets are disclosed separately as revenues and expenses, assets and liabilities.

The proportionate format is used by management in assessing and understanding the performance and results of operations of the Trust as it allows management to observe and analyse revenue and expense results and trends on a portfolio-wide basis. The assets underlying both the consolidated and the equity accounted components of the statutory statement of comprehensive income are similar (that is, Australian and New Zealand shopping centres), all centres are under common management and therefore the drivers of their results are similar. Accordingly, management considers that the proportionate format provides a more useful way to understand the performance of the portfolio as a whole than the statutory format.

Revenue recognition

Property revenue

The Trust derives property revenue from leasing its investment properties. This includes minimum base rents, recoveries of outgoings and percentage rent that may be earned under certain lease agreements. Anchor business partners generally have lease terms of 15 to 25 years with stepped increases throughout the term that can be fixed, linked to the consumer price index (CPI) or sales turnover based. Specialty business partners generally have lease terms of 5 to 7 years, and for larger stores 5 to 10 years. Specialty business partners generally have leases with annual contracted increases of CPI plus 2% to 3%.

Rental income from investment properties is accounted for on a straight-line basis, taking into account fixed rent payments and fixed rent increases over the term of the lease.

Under certain lease agreements, a portion of property expenses and outgoings may be recovered by the Trust from lessees. Recoveries of outgoings are recognised as income as services are provided. Monthly billings are issued to tenants three weeks in advance and are payable on the first day of the month the service is provided.

Under certain lease agreements, percentage rent may be payable by the lessee to the Trust based on turnover in excess of stipulated minimums. Contingent rental income is recognised as income in the period in which it is earned.

Tenant allowances that are classified as lease incentives are recorded as part of investment properties and amortised over the term of the lease. The amortisation is recorded against property revenue.

Expected credit loss allowance

In determining the expected credit loss allowance, management has considered security deposits received from tenants generally in the form of bank guarantees, which can be called upon if the tenant is in default under the terms of the lease contract. Trade debtors also include GST which is fully recoverable from the relevant tax authorities where the debt is not collected and therefore the GST amount is excluded from the loss allowance.

The decrease in expected credit loss allowance reflects abatements and write-offs applied against outstanding receivables, and the reversal of the prior year’s allowance following collection of related debts and a reassessment of credit risk.

At 31 December 2025, approximately 55% of trade debtors were aged greater than 90 days and the expected credit loss allowance was 50% of gross trade debtors. An increase or decrease of 5% in the expected credit loss rate would result in an increase or decrease in expected credit loss allowance of $0.7 million respectively. At 31 December 2024, approximately 70% of trade debtors were aged greater than 90 days and the expected credit loss allowance was 91% of gross trade debtors. An increase or decrease of 5% in the expected credit loss rate would result in an increase or decrease in expected credit loss allowance of nil or $0.9 million respectively.

Accounting Policies

Trade debtors and receivables

Trade debtors and receivables are held to collect contractual cash flows and these contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest. At initial recognition, these are measured at fair value.

Trade debtors and receivables are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, reduced by impairment losses. Interest income and impairment losses are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. The receivable is written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovering the contractual cash flows such as when all legal avenues for debt recovery have been exhausted. Any gain or loss on derecognition is also recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.

In assessing for impairment, the Trust assesses on a forward-looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its financial assets carried at amortised cost. For trade debtors and receivables, the Trust applies the simplified approach, which requires lifetime expected losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables.

In measuring the expected credit loss, trade debtors and receivables have been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics (e.g. size and industry) and the days past due. The expected loss rates are determined based on days past the due date and the historical credit losses experienced. Historical loss rates are adjusted to reflect current and forward looking information on macroeconomic factors affecting the ability of customers to settle their debts.

The Trust generally considers a financial asset to be in default when contractual payments are 90 days past due. However, in certain cases, the Trust may also consider a financial asset to be in default when internal or external information indicates that the Trust is unlikely to receive the outstanding contractual amounts in full before taking into account any credit enhancements held by the Trust.

Accounting Policies

Investment properties

The Trust’s investment properties include shopping centre investments, development projects and construction in progress.

Shopping centre investments

The Trust’s shopping centre investment properties represent completed centres comprising freehold and leasehold land, buildings

and leasehold improvements.

Land and buildings are considered as having the function of an investment and therefore are regarded as a composite asset, the overall value of which is influenced by many factors, the most prominent being income yield, rather than by the diminution in value of the building content due to effluxion of time. Accordingly, the buildings and all components thereof, including integral plant and equipment, are not depreciated.

Initially, shopping centre investment properties are measured at cost including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, the Trust’s portfolio of shopping centre investment properties are stated at fair value. Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair values of shopping centre investment properties are included in the statement of comprehensive income in the year in which they arise. Any gains or losses on the sale of an investment property are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income in the year of sale.

At each reporting date, the carrying value of the portfolio of shopping centre investment properties is assessed by the Directors and where the carrying value differs materially from the Directors’ assessment of fair value, an adjustment to the carrying value is recorded as appropriate.

The Directors’ assessment of fair value of each shopping centre takes into account the latest independent valuations generally prepared annually, with updates taking into account any changes in capitalisation rate, underlying income and valuations of comparable centres. In determining the fair value, the capitalisation of net income method and the discounting of future cash flows to their present value have been used, which are based upon assumptions and judgements in relation to future rental income, capitalisation rate and make reference to market evidence of transaction prices for similar properties.

The key assumptions and estimates used in determining fair value are disclosed in Note 5.

Development projects and construction in progress

The Trust’s development projects and construction in progress include costs incurred for the current and future redevelopment and expansion of new and existing shopping centre investments. Development projects and construction in progress includes capitalised construction and development costs, payments and advances to contractors and where applicable, borrowing costs incurred on qualifying developments. For the year ended 31 December 2025, the weighted average rate of borrowing costs capitalised was 5.6% (31 December 2024: 5.7%).

The Directors’ assessment of fair value of each development project and construction in progress that meets the definition of an investment property, takes into account the expected costs to complete, the stage of completion, expected underlying income and yield of the developments. From time to time, during a development, the Directors may commission an independent valuation of the development project. On completion, the development projects are reclassified to shopping centre investments and an independent valuation is obtained.

Independent valuations are conducted in accordance with guidelines and valuation principles as set by the International Valuation Standards Council.

It is Scentre Group’s policy to appoint a number of qualified independent valuers and that no individual valuer is appointed to appraise an individual property for greater than three consecutive years. The following qualified independent valuers were appointed by Scentre Group to carry out property appraisals for the current financial year:

Australian shopping centres

  • CBRE Valuations Pty Limited

  • Colliers International Holdings (Australia) Ltd

New Zealand shopping centres

  • Knight Frank NSW Valuations & Advisory Pty Ltd

  • Jones Lang La Salle Limited

(i) Investment properties held for sale on the balance sheet at 31 December 2025 comprises $322.9 million reclassified from consolidated Australian shopping centres and $149.2 million reclassified from equity accounted Australian shopping centres.

Centres that are held through controlled entities or are held directly and jointly as tenants in common and are treated as joint operations are consolidated. For joint operations, the contractual arrangements establish that the parties share all the liabilities, obligations, costs and expenses in their ownership proportion. The allocation of revenue and expenses is based on the ownership interest in the joint arrangement.

Centres that are held through a separate vehicle with joint control and are treated as a joint venture are accounted for under the equity method of accounting.

Valuation inputs

The Income Capitalisation approach and the Discounted Cash Flow approach are used to arrive at a range of valuation outcomes, from which a best estimate of fair value is derived at a point in time.

The key assumptions and estimates used in these valuation approaches include:

  • forecast future income, based on the location, type and quality of the property, which are supported by the terms of any existing leases, other contracts or external evidence such as current market rents for similar properties;

  • lease assumptions based on current and expected future market conditions after expiry of any current lease; and

  • the capitalisation rate and discount rate derived from recent comparable market transactions.

The table below summarises some of the key inputs used in determining investment property valuations:

Note 5 – Details of shopping centre investments (continued)

Changes to key inputs would result in changes to the fair value of investment properties. An increase in capitalisation rate and/or discount rate would result in lower fair value, while a decrease in capitalisation rate and/or discount rate will result in higher fair value (with all other factors held constant). The weighted average capitalisation rate and discount rates adopted at 31 December 2025 have broadly remained unchanged to 31 December 2024. The capitalisation rate sensitivity analysis is detailed below.

The sensitivity of shopping centre valuations to changes in capitalisation rates is as follows:

Taxation

The Trust comprises taxable and non-taxable entities. Income tax expense is only recognised in respect of taxable entities.

(i) The Trust has elected into the Attribution Managed Investment Trust Regime. Accordingly, the Trust is not liable for Australian income tax provided that the taxable income is attributed to members. The members of the Trust are taxable on their share of the taxable income of the Trust attributed to them.

The Trust’s New Zealand resident entities are subject to New Zealand tax.

(ii) Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance date. Income taxes related to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in tax expense.

Refer to Note 30 for related party transactions, which include these borrowings and derivatives arrangements.

Accounting Policies

Interest income and financing costs

Interest income is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income as it accrues using the effective interest rate method.

Financing costs include interest, amortisation of discounts or premiums relating to borrowings and other costs incurred in connection with the arrangement of borrowings (including realised interest derivative cashflows). Financing costs are expensed as incurred unless they relate to a qualifying asset. A qualifying asset is an asset which generally takes more than 12 months to get ready for its intended use or sale. In these circumstances, the financing costs are capitalised to the cost of the asset. Where funds are borrowed by the Trust for the acquisition or construction of a qualifying asset, the financing costs are capitalised.

Refer to Note 15 for other items included in financing costs.

Any accrued interest income and financing costs at balance date have been classified as either interest receivable or interest payable on the balance sheet. Interest receivable comprises interest accrued on derivative instruments, interest bearing loans receivable and short term deposits. Interest payable comprises interest accrued on interest bearing liabilities and derivative instruments. Interest receivable and payable on cross currency derivatives are presented gross and are not offset as the criteria for offsetting is not met.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents on the balance sheet comprise cash at bank and on hand and short term deposits on demand with an original maturity of 90 days or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

Cash and cash equivalents are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, reduced by impairment losses. Interest income and impairment losses (if any) are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.

For purposes of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and at bank, short term deposits on demand and bank accepted bills of exchange readily converted to cash net of bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are carried at the principal amount.

Payables and other creditors

Trade and other payables are carried at amortised cost and due to their short term nature they are not discounted. They represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Trust prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the Trust becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services. The amounts are unsecured and are paid within 30 days. Loans payable to related entities are carried at amortised cost, are at call and classified as current.

The Trust maintains a range of interest bearing liabilities. The sources of funding are spread over various counterparties to minimise credit exposure and the terms of the instruments are negotiated to achieve a balance between capital availability and the cost of debt.

The Trust consolidates Carindale Property Trust. The trust has a $230.0 million (31 December 2024: $300.0 million) floating interest rate syndicated facility. Drawings under this facility are secured by a registered mortgage over the trust’s interest in Westfield Carindale, and a fixed and floating charge over all assets and undertakings of the trust. The facility is subject to negative pledge arrangements. At 31 December 2025, the recorded fair value of Westfield Carindale is $800.3 million (31 December 2024: $779.1 million) compared to borrowings of $209.0 million (31 December 2024: $221.0 million).

Notes to the Financial Statements

For the year ended 31 December 2025

Note 14 – Interest bearing liabilities (continued)

Accounting Policies

Interest bearing liabilities

Interest bearing liabilities are recognised initially at the fair value of the consideration received less any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, interest bearing liabilities are recorded at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

Interest bearing liabilities are classified as current liabilities where the liability has been drawn under a financing facility which expires within one year. Amounts drawn under financing facilities which expire after one year are classified as non-current, where the Trust has an unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. Loans payable to related entities are at call and classified as current.

Financing costs for interest bearing liabilities are recognised on an accruals basis.

The fair values of the Trust’s interest bearing liabilities as disclosed in Note 22 are determined as follows:

  • Fair values of quoted notes and bonds are based on price quotations at the balance date.

  • The fair values of unquoted instruments, loans from banks and other non-current financial liabilities are estimated by discounting future cash flows using rates that approximate the Trust’s borrowing rate at the balance date, for debt with similar maturity, credit risk and terms.

(i) The currency related and interest related components of currency derivatives are part of the same contract. The net position has been classified accordingly as a derivative asset or derivative liability on the balance sheet.

The Trust’s derivatives do not meet the accounting requirements to qualify for hedge accounting treatment. Changes in fair value have been reflected in the statement of comprehensive income. At 31 December 2025, the aggregate fair value is a net payable of $106.1 million (31 December 2024: net receivable $417.8 million). The change in fair value for the year ended 31 December 2025 was a net unrealised loss of $523.9 million (31 December 2024: net unrealised gain $194.1 million). In 2025, the Trust cancelled interest rate derivatives following the sale of a 50% interest in Westfield Chermside resulting in a payment of $22.8 million (31 December 2024: nil).

The Trust presents the fair value mark to market of its derivative assets and derivative liabilities, and related interest receivable and payable, on a gross basis. These positions are subject to legally enforceable master netting arrangements, however do not meet the criteria for offsetting in the balance sheet. As at 31 December 2025, if these netting arrangements were applied, derivative assets and interest receivables of $217.4 million would be reduced by $191.6 million to the net amount of $25.8 million and derivative liabilities and interest payables of $299.5 million would be reduced by $191.6 million to the net amount of $107.9 million. As at 31 December 2024, if these netting arrangements were applied, derivative assets and interest receivables of $667.9 million would be reduced by $215.0 million to the net amount of $452.9 million and derivative liabilities and interest payables of $215.0 million would be reduced by $215.0 million to the net amount of nil.

Note 15 – Derivative assets and liabilities (continued)

Accounting Policies

Derivative financial instruments

The Trust utilises derivative financial instruments, including forward exchange contracts, interest rate options and currency and interest rate swaps to manage the risks associated with foreign currency and interest rate fluctuations. Such derivative financial instruments are recognised at fair value.

Scentre Group has set defined policies and implemented a comprehensive hedging program to manage interest and exchange rate risks. Derivative instruments are transacted to achieve the economic outcomes in line with Scentre Group’s treasury policy and hedging program. Derivative instruments are not transacted for speculative purposes. Accounting standards require detailed compliance with documentation, designation and effectiveness parameters before a derivative financial instrument is deemed to qualify for hedge accounting treatment. Where these requirements are not met, derivative instruments are deemed not to qualify for hedge accounting and changes in fair value are recorded in the statement of comprehensive income.

Gains or losses arising from the movements in the fair value of currency derivatives which hedge net investments in foreign operations are recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve where hedge accounting requirements have been met. Where a currency derivative, or portion thereof, is deemed an ineffective hedge for accounting purposes, gains or losses thereon are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. On disposal of a net investment in foreign operations, the cumulative gains or losses recognised previously in the foreign currency translation reserve are transferred to the statement of comprehensive income.

The fair value of derivatives has been determined with reference to market observable inputs for contracts with similar maturity profiles. The valuation is a present value calculation which incorporates interest rate curves, foreign exchange spot and forward rates, option volatilities and the credit quality of counterparties.

Accounting Policies

Translation of accounts of foreign operations

The functional and presentation currency of the Trust and its Australian subsidiaries is Australian dollars. The functional currency of the New Zealand entities is New Zealand dollars. The presentation currency of the overseas entities is Australian dollars to enable the consolidated financial statements of the Trust to be reported in a common currency.

The balance sheets of foreign subsidiaries and equity accounted investments are translated at exchange rates ruling at balance date and the statement of comprehensive income of foreign subsidiaries and equity accounted investments are translated at average exchange rates for the period. Exchange differences arising on translation of the interests in foreign operations are taken directly to the foreign currency translation reserve.

Note 19 – Capital and financial risk management

The Trust forms part of Scentre Group which is a stapled entity comprising the Trust, SGL, SGT2, SGT3 and their respective controlled entities. The stapled group operates as a single economic entity with a common Board of Directors and management team. Capital and financial risks are therefore managed from the stapled group’s perspective rather than the silos that make up the stapled group.

Refer to Note 21: Capital risk management, Note 22: Financial risk management, Note 23: Interest rate risk management, Note 24: Exchange rate risk management, Note 25: Credit risk management and Note 26: Liquidity risk management of Scentre Group’s 2025 Annual Report for details of Scentre Group’s policies in identifying, assessing and managing the capital and financial risks of the stapled group.

(i) These financial assets and liabilities are not subject to interest rate risk and the fair value approximates carrying amount.

(ii) These financial assets and liabilities are subject to interest rate and/or market risks, the basis of determining the fair value is set out in the fair value hierarchy below.

Determination of fair value

The Responsible Entity uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of a financial instrument. The valuation techniques comprise:

Level 1: the fair value is calculated using quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: the fair value is estimated using inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices).

Level 3: the fair value is estimated using inputs that are not based on observable market data.

In assessing the fair value of the Trust’s financial instruments, consideration is given to available market data and if the market for a financial instrument changes then the valuation technique applied will change accordingly.

During the year, there were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements.

Investment properties are considered Level 3, refer to Note 4: Investment properties and Note 5: Details of shopping centre investments for relevant fair value disclosures.

Note 23 – Other material accounting policies

(a) Consolidation and classification

This consolidated financial report comprises the financial statements and notes to the financial statements of SGT1, and each of its controlled entities as from the date SGT1 obtained control until such time control ceased. SGT1 and its controlled entities are collectively referred to as the economic entity known as the Trust. Where entities adopt accounting policies which differ from those of SGT1, adjustments have been made so as to achieve consistency within the Trust.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all inter-entity transactions and balances, including unrealised profits arising from intra-group transactions, have been eliminated in full. Unrealised losses are eliminated unless costs cannot be recovered.

(i) Synchronisation of Financial Year

By an order dated 5 November 2001, made by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) pursuant to subsection 340(1) of the Corporations Act, the Directors of the Responsible Entity have been relieved from compliance with subsection 323D(3) of the Corporations Act insofar as that subsection requires them to ensure the financial year of the controlled entity Carindale Property Trust (CDP), coincides with the financial year of SGT1.

Notwithstanding that the financial year of CDP ends on 30 June, the consolidated financial statements have been prepared so as to include the accounts for a period coinciding with the financial year of SGT1 being 31 December.

(iii) Controlled entities

Where an entity either began or ceased to be a controlled entity during the reporting period, the results are included only from the date control commenced or up to the date control ceased. Non-controlling interests are shown as a separate item in the consolidated financial statements.

(b) Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except where the GST incurred on purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the tax authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable. Receivables and payables are stated with the amounts of GST included.

The net amount of GST payable or receivable to government authorities is included as part of receivables or payables on the balance sheet.

Cash flows are included in the cash flow statement on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is classified as operating cash flow.

Commitments and contingent liabilities are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority.

(c) Recoverable amount of assets

At each reporting date, the Trust assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. Where an indicator of impairment exists, the Trust makes an estimate of recoverable amount. Where carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

(ii) Joint arrangements

Joint operations

The Trust has significant co-ownership interests in a number of properties through unincorporated joint ventures. These interests are held directly and jointly as tenants in common. The Trust has the rights to the individual assets and obligations arising from these interests and recognises its share of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the operation.

Joint ventures

The Trust has significant co-ownership interests in a number of properties through property partnerships, trusts or companies. These joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method of accounting.

The Trust and its joint ventures use consistent accounting policies. Investments in joint ventures are carried in the consolidated balance sheet at cost plus post-acquisition changes in the Trust’s share of net assets of the joint ventures.

The consolidated statement of comprehensive income reflects the Trust’s share of the results of operations of the joint ventures.

(d) Translation of foreign currency transactions

Foreign currency transactions are converted to Australian dollars at exchange rates ruling at the date of those transactions. Amounts payable and receivable in foreign currency at balance date are translated to Australian dollars at exchange rates ruling at that date. Exchange differences arising on the settlement of or on translating amounts payable or receivable in foreign currency at rates different from those at which they were translated on initial recognition, are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income in the period in which they arise, except where hedge accounting is applied.

(e) Assets and liabilities held for sale

Non-current assets or disposal groups are classified as held for sale if it is highly probable that they will be recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use. They are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell, except for assets such as financial assets and investment property that are carried at fair value. Assets and liabilities classified as held for sale are presented separately as current items in the balance sheet.

Entities of Scentre Group have provided guarantees in respect of certain Westfield Corporation Limited joint venture operations in the United Kingdom. Under the Restructure and Merger Implementation Deed, the entities of Scentre Group and Westfield Corporation have cross indemnified each other for any claims that may be made or payment that may be required under such guarantees. On 7 June 2018, Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield acquired the entities of Westfield Corporation, including Westfield Corporation Limited.

The Trust’s obligation in respect of performance guarantees may be called on at any time dependent upon the performance or non-performance of certain third parties.

From time to time, in the normal course of business, the Trust is involved in lawsuits. The Directors believe that the ultimate outcome of such pending litigation will not materially affect the results of operations or the financial position of the Trust.

Report on the audit of the financial report

Opinion

We have audited the financial report of Scentre Group Trust 1 and its controlled entities (the Trust), which comprises the consolidated balance sheet as at 31 December 2025, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated cash flow statement for the year then ended, notes to the financial statements, including material accounting policy information, the consolidated entity disclosure statement and the directors’ declaration.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Trust is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:

  • a. Giving a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Trust as at 31 December 2025 and of its consolidated financial performance for the year ended on that date; and

  • b. Complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report section of our report. We are independent of the Trust 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 audits of the financial report of public interest entities in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report of the current year. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, but we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. For each matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter is provided in that context.

We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report section of our report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, our audit included the performance of procedures designed to respond to our assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report. The results of our audit procedures, including the procedures performed to address the matters below, provide the basis for our audit opinion on the accompanying financial report.

Independent Auditor’s Report

Shopping centre investment properties – carrying values and revaluations

Why significant

At 31 December 2025, the Trust holds economic interests in shopping centre investment properties which are carried at a fair value of $15.9 billion as disclosed in Note 2. These include shopping centres recorded directly in the consolidated balance sheet as investment properties and indirectly through equity accounted investments. Collectively, they represent 95% of total assets.

Fair values were determined by the Trust at the end of the reporting period with reference to the latest external independent property valuations and market conditions existing at the reporting date. Changes in fair value are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.

We considered this to be a key audit matter as property valuations are based on certain assumptions, such as capitalisation rates, market rent, occupancy levels, re-leasing and capital expenditure, which are judgmental in nature. Minor changes in certain assumptions can lead to significant changes in valuations.

We draw attention to Notes 4 and 5 of the financial report which discloses the accounting policy for these assets and sensitivities to changes in the key assumptions that may impact these valuations.

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

Our audit procedures included the following for both properties held directly and through equity accounted investments:

  • We inquired of the following matters with management:

  • Movements in the Trust’s investment property portfolio;

  • Changes in the condition of each property, including an understanding of key developments and changes to development activities; and

  • Changes in the Trust’s investment property portfolio including understanding leasing activity and tenant occupancy risk.

  • We assessed the effectiveness of the Trust’s relevant controls over the leasing process and associated schedule of tenancy reports, which are used as source data in the property valuations.

  • On a sample basis, we performed the following procedures on the key assumptions adopted in the valuations:

  • We assessed net income, lease expiry and vacancy assumptions adopted against the schedule of tenancy reports, lease expiry profile and vacancy levels of the underlying asset;

  • We assessed the re-leasing and capital expenditure requirement assumptions in light of the current leasing status of the property;

  • Where available, we corroborated these assumptions to supporting lease documentation or external market data; and

  • Tested the mathematical accuracy of valuations.

  • We involved our real estate valuation specialists to assist with:

  • the assessment of capitalisation rates adopted across the portfolio; and

  • the review and assessment of the property valuations for a sample of properties based on size, geographical location and other property valuation specific risk factors.

  • We evaluated the suitability of the valuation methodology used by management across the portfolio. We assessed the reports of independent valuers to gain an understanding of the assumptions and estimates used and the valuation methodology applied.

  • Where relevant, we assessed the reasonableness of comparable transactions utilised by the Trust in the valuation process.

  • We assessed the qualifications, competence and objectivity of the external and internal valuers used by the Trust.

  • We also assessed the adequacy and appropriateness of disclosures included in Notes 4 and 5 of the financial report.

Financial Report

Information other than the financial report and auditor’s report thereon

The directors of Scentre Management Limited, the Responsible Entity of the Trust, are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Trust’s annual report for the year ended 31 December 2025, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon.

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, 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.

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of the directors of the Responsible Entity for the financial report

The directors of the Responsible Entity are responsible for the preparation of:

  • The financial report (other than the consolidated entity disclosure statement) that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 ; and

  • The consolidated entity disclosure statement that is true and correct in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 ; and

for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of:

  • The financial report (other than the consolidated entity disclosure statement) that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; and

  • The consolidated entity disclosure statement that is true and correct and is free of misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial report, the directors of the Responsible Entity are responsible for assessing the Trust’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters relating to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Trust or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

44 | SCENTRE GROUP Scentre Group Trust 1 2025 Annual Financial Report

Independent Auditor’s Report

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report

Our objectives are 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 the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and 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 this financial report.

As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust’s internal control.

  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors of the Responsible Entity.

  • Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors of the Responsible Entity’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Trust’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Trust to cease to continue as a going concern.

  • • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  • Plan and perform the Group audit to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business units within the Group as a basis for forming an opinion on the Group financial report. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and review of the audit work performed for the purposes of the Group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with the directors of the Responsible Entity, regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide the directors of the Responsible Entity with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied.

From the matters communicated to the directors of the Responsible Entity, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current year and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

Directors’ Report

The Directors of Scentre Management Limited (Responsible Entity), the responsible entity of Scentre Group Trust 1 (the Trust or SGT1) submit the following report for the year ended 31 December 2025 (Financial Year).

The Trust is part of Scentre Group which is a stapled entity comprising Scentre Group Limited (SGL), the Trust, Scentre Group Trust 2 (SGT2), Scentre Group Trust 3 (SGT3) and their respective controlled entities. Scentre Group operates as a single coordinated economic entity, with a common Board of Directors and management team.

1. Operating and financial review

1.1 Operating overview

Scentre Group owns and operates 42 Westfield destinations with 37 located in Australia and five in New Zealand. Westfield destinations are strategically located in close proximity to the majority of the population in Australia and New Zealand and form part of the social fabric of the communities we serve.

The Trust has a joint interest in 38 Westfield destinations, after the disposal of Chermside during the year.

During 2025, Scentre Group welcomed 540 million customer visits, an increase of 14 million or 2.7% compared to 2024. In the first 53 days of 2026, customer visitation was 79 million, an increase of 3.1% compared to the same period in 2025.

Scentre Group’s business partners achieved a record $30.0 billion of sales during 2025. This is $1.0 billion or 3.6% more than in 2024, with the second half growing by 4.5%. For the month of January 2026, business partner sales grew by 5.4% on the comparable period.

Strong demand for space in our destinations resulted in Scentre Group’s portfolio occupancy increasing to 99.8% at 31 December 2025, representing Scentre Group’s highest level of occupancy since 2013.

During 2025, average specialty rent escalations across Scentre Group’s portfolio were 4.5% and 3,090 leasing deals were completed with new specialty lease spreads of 3.2%.

1.2 2025 economic performance

Financial performance and position

The Trust’s financial result for the Financial Year was a profit of $748.1 million, an increase of 46.9% compared with 2024. This includes an unrealised property valuation increase of $274.1 million. Net property income (property revenue less property expenses, outgoings and other costs) for the Financial Year was $922.8 million, up 2.6% from 2024.

The aggregate distribution attributable to members of SGT1 for the Financial Year is $666.3 million (being 12.78 cents per unit). Basic earnings per unit for the Financial Year is 14.04 cents.

Net assets have increased from $7,104.0 million at 31 December 2024 to $7,317.0 million at 31 December 2025. The Trust’s portfolio is valued at $15.9 billion at 31 December 2025.

Capital management

As at 31 December 2025, the Trust had available financing facilities of $4.7 billion after deducting facilities utilised by its borrowings.

During the Financial Year, the Trust issued A$650 million of new subordinated notes and $2.1 billion of senior notes. The Trust also repaid $998 million of interest bearing loan payable to SGT2, and issued $550 million of new interest bearing loans to SGT2.

Development activity

Scentre Group continues to progress its $4.0 billion pipeline of future development opportunities.

During the Financial Year, Scentre Group completed the $28 million redevelopment of Level 1 at Westfield Bondi in Sydney. The repurposed space features a health, wellness and fitness precinct, including a global first Virgin Active social wellness club and rebel rCX store, contributing to visitation growth of 8.5% in 2025. Following the success of Level 1, Scentre Group will commence a $240 million investment at Westfield Bondi to redevelop Level 6 into a world-leading lifestyle, entertainment and dining destination.

The $72 million redevelopment at Westfield Southland in Melbourne delivered a new family, dining and entertainment precinct, driving visitation growth of 6.5% in 2025.

Scentre Group has taken the opportunity to strategically downsize David Jones at three of its destinations to unlock space to introduce in-demand and highly productive stores.

The Trust has a joint interest in Westfield Bondi (50%) and Westfield Southland (25%).

Scentre Group’s 42 Westfield destinations are located on more than 670 hectares of land holdings, close to major transport hubs and where millions of people live and work. During the year, Scentre Group lodged planning proposals at six Westfield destinations with the potential to deliver 16,100 dwellings.

A detailed operating and financial review for Scentre Group is contained in the Directors’ Report in Scentre Group’s 2025 Annual Report which is available at https://www.scentregroup. com/investors/annual-reporting-suite.

1.3 2026 guidance and outlook

Scentre Group’s strategy to grow the economic activity across its Westfield destinations by attracting more people to Westfield destinations, broadening businesses partners, and better utilising its substantial land holdings, is expected to continue to deliver sustainable long-term growth in earnings and distributions.

Subject to no material change in conditions, Scentre Group’s target for Funds From Operations (FFO) is at least 23.73 cents per security for 2026, representing at least 4.0% growth for the year.

Scentre Group distributions are expected to grow by 4.0% for 2026 to 18.43 cents per security.

On 3 February 2026, Scentre Group sold a 19.9% interest in Westfield Sydney to Australian Retirement Trust which was executed through the sale of units in sub-trusts.

No other event has occurred since the end of the year which would significantly affect the operations of the Trust.

1.5 Principal activity

The principal activity of the Trust during the Financial Year was the long term ownership of shopping centres. There was no significant change in the nature of the principal activity during the Financial Year.

1.6 Future developments

At the date of this report there is no proposed change to the principal activities of the Trust. The strategy, key drivers and outlook of Scentre Group are described in the Directors’ Report in Scentre Group’s 2025 Annual Report.

1.7 Risk

Scentre Group looks at risk from a number of perspectives: global risk trends, social and environmental risks and retail property specific risks. These risks are subject to continuous assessment and review.

As a property group involved in the design, development, management and operation of retail shopping centres, Scentre Group faces a number of operational risks which have the potential to affect the achievement of our targeted financial outcomes.

1.9 Sustainability Reporting

In accordance with s292A(2) of the Corporations Act 2001 , Scentre Group Limited prepared its Sustainability Report on a consolidated basis (which included the Trust). The Sustainability Report is included in Scentre Group’s 2025 Annual Report.

2. Distributions

This distribution was an aggregate of a distribution from the Trust, SGT2, SGT3 and a dividend from SGL. The figure reported here represents that component of the aggregate Scentre Group distribution being the distribution of the Trust.

For the six months ended 30 June 2025, the Trust distribution of 5.070 cents per ordinary unit formed part of the distribution of 8.815 cents per Scentre Group stapled security, paid on 29 August 2025.

The figure reported here represents that component of the aggregate Scentre Group distribution being the distribution of the Trust.

For the six months ended 31 December 2025, the Trust distribution of 7.710 cents per ordinary unit formed part of the distribution of 8.905 cents per Scentre Group stapled security, paid on 27 February 2026. This distribution was an aggregate of a distribution from the Trust and a distribution from SGT2. The figure reported here represents that component of the aggregate Scentre Group distribution being the distribution of the Trust.

Scentre Group’s Distribution Reinvestment Plan (DRP) was in operation for the six-month period ended 31 December 2025. 6,559,679 Scentre Group stapled securities were issued under the DRP at $3.7998 per security on 27 February 2026. Scentre Group securities issued under the DRP rank equally with existing securities on issue.

A number of important strategic risks and how such risks are managed and monitored are outlined in Scentre Group’s 2025 Annual Report.

1.8 Environmental regulation

Environmental laws and regulations in force in the various jurisdictions in which we operate are applicable to areas of our operations and in particular to our development, construction and shopping centre management activities.

Scentre Group has in place procedures to identify and comply with such requirements including complying with the conditions of relevant authority consents and approvals and obtaining any necessary licences. Scentre Group’s compliance procedures are regularly reviewed and audited and their application closely monitored and Scentre Group’s approach to sustainability risks is outlined in Scentre Group’s 2025 Annual Report.

5. Indemnities and insurance premiums

Subject to the following, no indemnity was given, or insurance premium paid during or since the end of the Financial Year out of the assets of the Trust in regards to a person who is or has been an officer or auditor of the Responsible Entity. So long as the Responsible Entity acts in accordance with the Constitution and the Corporations Act 2001 , it remains indemnified out of the assets of the Trust against any losses incurred while acting as the Responsible Entity.

The Responsible Entity’s Constitution provides that a person who is or has been a Director or Secretary of the Responsible Entity may be indemnified by the Responsible Entity against liabilities incurred by the person in that capacity and for all legal costs incurred in defending or resisting (or otherwise in connection with) proceedings in which the person becomes involved because of that capacity. The indemnity does not apply to the extent that the Responsible Entity is forbidden by statute to indemnify the person or the indemnity would, if given, be made void by statute.

A related corporation of the Responsible Entity has paid premiums for directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in respect of Directors, Secretaries and Executive Officers of the Responsible Entity as permitted by the Corporations Act 2001 . The terms of the insurance policy prohibit disclosure of details of the nature of the liabilities covered by, and the amounts of the premiums payable under, that insurance policy.

In addition, each Director has entered into a Deed of Indemnity and Access which provides for indemnity against liability as a Director, except where prohibited by statute. The Deed also entitles the Director to access the Responsible Entity’s documents and records, subject to undertakings as to confidentiality.

To the extent permitted by law, the Responsible Entity has agreed to indemnify its auditor, Ernst & Young (EY), as part of the standard terms of its audit engagement against claims by third parties arising from the audit (for an unspecified amount). No payment with respect to such indemnity has been made to EY during or since the Financial Year.

6. Special rules for registered schemes

  • $78.7 million in fees were paid or payable to the Responsible Entity and its associates out of the assets of the Trust during the Financial Year.

  • $71.3 million of development and construction billings were paid or payable to associates of the Responsible Entity out of the assets of the Trust during the Financial Year.

  • No units in the Trust were held by the Responsible Entity at the end of the Financial Year. Associates of the Responsible Entity held 11,386,340 units as at 20 February 2026.

  • No withdrawals were made from the scheme during the Financial Year.

  • Details of the value of the Trust’s assets as at the end of the Financial Year and the basis for the valuation are set out in Notes 2, 4, 5 and 22 to the Financial Report.

  • Details of the number of units in the Trust as at the end of the Financial Year are set out in Note 16 to the Financial Report.

7. Audit

7.1 Audit and Finance Committee

Notes to the Financial Statements

For the year ended 31 December 2025

Note 1 – Basis of preparation of the Financial Report

(a) Corporate information

This financial report of Scentre Group Trust 2 (SGT2) and its controlled entities (collectively the Trust) for the year ended 31 December 2025 was approved in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors of RE1 Limited as Responsible Entity of SGT2.

SGT2 is domiciled in Australia. The nature of the operations and principal activity of the Trust are described in the Directors’ Report.

(b) Accounting for the Trust

The Trust is part of Scentre Group which is a stapled entity comprising Scentre Group Limited (SGL), Scentre Group Trust 1 (SGT1), SGT2, Scentre Group Trust 3 (SGT3) and their respective controlled entities. Scentre Group was established on 30 June 2014. The securities of each of SGL, SGT1, SGT2 and SGT3 are stapled and trade as one security on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) under the code SCG. The stapled securities of SGL, SGT1, SGT2 and SGT3 cannot be traded separately.

(c) Going concern

This financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis. In making this assessment, the Directors have considered:

  • The Trust forms part of Scentre Group and is party to Scentre Group’s cross guarantee arrangements in respect of Scentre Group’s debt facilities and bonds; and

  • Scentre Group’s ability to meet its financial obligations over the next 12 months, using cash flow sensitivity analysis and having regard to maturity of interest bearing liabilities, funding requirements, operating cash earnings and available financing facilities. At 31 December 2025, $4.6 billion (31 December 2024: $3.1 billion) of external financing facilities and intragroup facilities within Scentre Group were available to the Trust which are sufficient to cover short term liabilities.

(d) Basis of Accounting

This financial report is a general purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 (Corporations Act), Australian Accounting Standards and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board. This financial report has also been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for investment properties, investment properties within equity accounted investments, derivative financial instruments and financial assets at fair value through profit and loss.

This financial report is presented in Australian dollars.

(e) Statement of Compliance

This financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year.

The amendments in AASB 2023-5 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Lack of Exchangeability became applicable on 1 January 2025 but did not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Trust.

Certain Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations have recently been issued or amended but are not yet effective and have not been adopted by the Trust for the year ended 31 December 2025. The impact of these new standards or amendments to the standards and interpretations (to the extent relevant to the Trust) is as follows:

  • AASB 2024-2 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (effective 1 January 2026)

  • This amends AASB 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures and AASB 9 Financial Instruments to:

  • (i) clarify the date of recognition and derecognition of some financial assets and liabilities;

  • (ii) clarify and add further guidance for assessing whether a financial asset meets the solely payments of principal and interest criterion;

  • (iii) add new disclosures for certain instruments with contractual terms that can change cash flows (such as some financial instruments with features linked to the achievement of environment, social and governance targets); and

  • (iv) update the disclosures for equity instruments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income.

These amendments are not expected to have a significant impact on the financial statements on application.

Notes to the Financial Statements

For the year ended 31 December 2025

Note 1 – Basis of preparation of the Financial Report (continued)

(e) Statement of Compliance (continued)

  • AASB 2024-3 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Annual Improvements Volume 11 (effective 1 January 2026)

This makes minor improvements to address inconsistencies or to clarify requirements in:

  • (i) AASB 1 First-time Adoption of Australian Accounting Standards – to improve consistency between AASB 1 and AASB 9 in relation to the requirements for hedge accounting, and improve the understandability of AASB 1;

  • (ii) AASB 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures – to improve consistency in the language used in AASB 7 with the language used in AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement ;

  • (iii) AASB 9 Financial Instruments – to clarify how a lessee accounts for the derecognition of a lease liability when it is extinguished and address an inconsistency between AASB 9 and AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers in relation to the term ‘transaction price’;

  • (iv) AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements – to clarify the requirements in relation to determining de facto agents of an entity; and

  • (v) AASB 107 Statement of Cash Flows – to replace the term ‘cost method’ with ‘at cost’ as the term is no longer defined in Australian Accounting Standards.

These amendments are not expected to have a significant impact on the financial statements on application.

  • AASB 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements (effective from 1 January 2027)

This replaces AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements with a focus on updates to the income statement. The key presentation and disclosure requirements established under the new standard relate to:

  • (i) the structure of the income statement with defined subtotals;

  • (ii) requirement to determine the most useful structure summary for presenting expenses in the income statement;

  • (iii) the disclosure of management-defined performance measures in a single note within the financial statements; and

The presentation and new disclosure requirements under the new standard are expected to have a material impact on the financial statements of the Trust on application. The Trust will apply the new standard from its mandatory effective date of 1 January 2027 and the comparative information for the financial year ending 31 December 2026 will be restated in accordance with AASB 18.

  • AASB 2014-10 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture (effective from 1 January 2028)

This amends AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and AASB 128 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures to address an inconsistency between the requirements of AASB 10 and AASB 128 in dealing with the sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture. This amendment is not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements on application.

(f) Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of this financial report requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its judgements and estimates on historical experience and various other factors it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.

Further details of judgements, estimates and assumptions applied may be found in the relevant notes to the financial statements, in particular, Note 2: Segment reporting, Note 3: Trade debtors and receivables, Note 4: Investment properties, Note 5: Details of shopping centre investments and Note 21: Fair value of assets and liabilities.

(g) Comparative information

Where applicable, certain comparative figures are restated in order to comply with the current period’s presentation of the financial statements.

(h) Rounding

In accordance with ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191, the amounts shown in this financial report have been rounded to the nearest tenth of a million dollars, unless otherwise indicated. Amounts shown as 0.0 represent amounts less than $50,000 that have been rounded down.

  • (iv) enhanced principles on aggregation and disaggregation which apply to the primary financial statements and notes in general.

Note 2 – Segment reporting

Geographic segments

The Trust has investments in a portfolio of shopping centres across Australia and New Zealand.

The Trust’s segment income and expenses as well as the details of segment assets have been prepared on a proportionate format on a geographic basis. The proportionate format presents the net income from and net assets in equity accounted properties on a gross format whereby the underlying components of net income and net assets are disclosed separately as revenues and expenses, assets and liabilities.

The proportionate format is used by management in assessing and understanding the performance and results of operations of the Trust as it allows management to observe and analyse revenue and expense results and trends on a portfolio-wide basis. The assets underlying both the consolidated and the equity accounted components of the statutory statement of comprehensive income are similar (that is, Australian and New Zealand shopping centres), all centres are under common management and therefore the drivers of their results are similar. Accordingly, management considers that the proportionate format provides a more useful way to understand the performance of the portfolio as a whole than the statutory format.

Revenue recognition

Property revenue

The Trust derives property revenue from leasing its investment properties. This includes minimum base rents, recoveries of outgoings and percentage rent that may be earned under certain lease agreements. Anchor business partners generally have lease terms of 15 to 25 years with stepped increases throughout the term that can be fixed, linked to the consumer price index (CPI) or sales turnover based. Specialty business partners generally have lease terms of 5 to 7 years, and for larger stores 5 to 10 years. Specialty business partners generally have leases with annual contracted increases of CPI plus 2% to 3%.

Rental income from investment properties is accounted for on a straight-line basis, taking into account fixed rent payments and fixed rent increases over the term of the lease.

Under certain lease agreements, a portion of property expenses and outgoings may be recovered by the Trust from lessees. Recoveries of outgoings are recognised as income as services are provided. Monthly billings are issued to tenants three weeks in advance and are payable on the first day of the month the service is provided.

Under certain lease agreements, percentage rent may be payable by the lessee to the Trust based on turnover in excess of stipulated minimums. Contingent rental income is recognised as income in the period in which it is earned.

Tenant allowances that are classified as lease incentives are recorded as part of investment properties and amortised over the term of the lease. The amortisation is recorded against property revenue.

Expected credit loss allowance

In determining the expected credit loss allowance, management has considered security deposits received from tenants generally in the form of bank guarantees, which can be called upon if the tenant is in default under the terms of the lease contract. Trade debtors also include GST which is fully recoverable from the relevant tax authorities where the debt is not collected and therefore the GST amount is excluded from the loss allowance.

The decrease in expected credit loss allowance reflects abatements and write-offs applied against outstanding receivables, and the reversal of the prior year’s allowance following collection of related debts and a reassessment of credit risk.

At 31 December 2025, approximately 57% of trade debtors were aged greater than 90 days and the expected credit loss allowance was 52% of gross trade debtors. An increase or decrease of 5% in the expected credit loss rate would result in an increase or decrease in expected credit loss allowance of $0.7 million respectively. At 31 December 2024, approximately 72% of trade debtors were aged greater than 90 days and the expected credit loss allowance was 85% of gross trade debtors. An increase or decrease of 5% in the expected credit loss rate would result in an increase or decrease in expected credit loss allowance of $1.1 million respectively.

Accounting Policies

Trade debtors and receivables

Trade debtors and receivables are held to collect contractual cash flows and these contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest. At initial recognition, these are measured at fair value.

Trade debtors and receivables are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, reduced by impairment losses. Interest income and impairment losses are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. The receivable is written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovering the contractual cash flows such as when all legal avenues for debt recovery have been exhausted. Any gain or loss on derecognition is also recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.

In assessing for impairment, the Trust assesses on a forward-looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its financial assets carried at amortised cost. For trade debtors and receivables, the Trust applies the simplified approach, which requires lifetime expected losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables.

In measuring the expected credit loss, trade debtors and receivables have been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics (e.g. size and industry) and the days past due. The expected loss rates are determined based on days past the due date and the historical credit losses experienced. Historical loss rates are adjusted to reflect current and forward looking information on macroeconomic factors affecting the ability of customers to settle their debts.

The Trust generally considers a financial asset to be in default when contractual payments are 90 days past due. However, in certain cases, the Trust may also consider a financial asset to be in default when internal or external information indicates that the Trust is unlikely to receive the outstanding contractual amounts in full before taking into account any credit enhancements held by the Trust.

Accounting Policies

Investment properties

The Trust’s investment properties include shopping centre investments, development projects and construction in progress.

Shopping centre investments

The Trust’s shopping centre investment properties represent completed centres comprising freehold and leasehold land, buildings

and leasehold improvements.

Land and buildings are considered as having the function of an investment and therefore are regarded as a composite asset, the overall value of which is influenced by many factors, the most prominent being income yield, rather than by the diminution in value of the building content due to effluxion of time. Accordingly, the buildings and all components thereof, including integral plant and equipment, are not depreciated.

Initially, shopping centre investment properties are measured at cost including transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, the Trust’s portfolio of shopping centre investment properties are stated at fair value. Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair values of shopping centre investment properties are included in the statement of comprehensive income in the year in which they arise. Any gains or losses on the sale of an investment property are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income in the year of sale.

At each reporting date, the carrying value of the portfolio of shopping centre investment properties is assessed by the Directors and where the carrying value differs materially from the Directors’ assessment of fair value, an adjustment to the carrying value is recorded as appropriate.

The Directors’ assessment of fair value of each shopping centre takes into account the latest independent valuations generally prepared annually, with updates taking into account any changes in capitalisation rate, underlying income and valuations of comparable centres. In determining the fair value, the capitalisation of net income method and the discounting of future cash flows to their present value have been used, which are based upon assumptions and judgements in relation to future rental income, capitalisation rate and make reference to market evidence of transaction prices for similar properties.

The key assumptions and estimates used in determining fair value are disclosed in Note 5.

Development projects and construction in progress

The Trust’s development projects and construction in progress include costs incurred for the current and future redevelopment and expansion of new and existing shopping centre investments. Development projects and construction in progress includes capitalised construction and development costs, payments and advances to contractors and where applicable, borrowing costs incurred on qualifying developments. For the year ended 31 December 2025, the weighted average rate of borrowing costs capitalised was 5.6% (31 December 2024: 5.7%).

The Directors’ assessment of fair value of each development project and construction in progress that meets the definition of an investment property, takes into account the expected costs to complete, the stage of completion, expected underlying income and yield of the developments. From time to time, during a development, the Directors may commission an independent valuation of the development project. On completion, the development projects are reclassified to shopping centre investments and an independent valuation is obtained.

Independent valuations are conducted in accordance with guidelines and valuation principles as set by the International Valuation Standards Council.

It is Scentre Group’s policy to appoint a number of qualified independent valuers and that no individual valuer is appointed to appraise an individual property for greater than three consecutive years. The following qualified independent valuers were appointed by Scentre Group to carry out property appraisals for the current financial year:

  • Colliers International Holdings (Australia) Ltd

Centres that are held through controlled entities or are held directly and jointly as tenants in common and are treated as joint operations are consolidated. For joint operations, the contractual arrangements establish that the parties share all the liabilities, obligations, costs and expenses in their ownership proportion. The allocation of revenue and expenses is based on the ownership interest in the joint arrangement.

Centres that are held through a separate vehicle with joint control and are treated as a joint venture are accounted for under the equity method of accounting.

Valuation inputs

The Income Capitalisation approach and the Discounted Cash Flow approach are used to arrive at a range of valuation outcomes, from which a best estimate of fair value is derived at a point in time.

The key assumptions and estimates used in these valuation approaches include:

  • forecast future income, based on the location, type and quality of the property, which are supported by the terms of any existing leases, other contracts or external evidence such as current market rents for similar properties;

  • lease assumptions based on current and expected future market conditions after expiry of any current lease; and

  • the capitalisation rate and discount rate derived from recent comparable market transactions.

The table below summarises some of the key inputs used in determining investment property valuations:

31 Dec 25 31 Dec 24
Australian portfolio
Retail capitalisation rate 4.63%–7.25% 4.63%–7.25%
Weighted average capitalisation rate(i) 5.35% 5.35%
Retail discount rate 6.75%–8.00% 6.50%–8.00%
New Zealand portfolio
Retail capitalisation rate 6.25%–7.75% 6.38%–7.75%
Weighted average capitalisation rate(i) 7.01% 7.06%
Retail discount rate 8.00%–8.75% 8.00%–8.75%

(i) Weighted average capitalisation rate including non-retail assets.

Changes to key inputs would result in changes to the fair value of investment properties. An increase in capitalisation rate and/or discount rate would result in lower fair value, while a decrease in capitalisation rate and/or discount rate will result in higher fair value (with all other factors held constant). The weighted average capitalisation rate and discount rates adopted at 31 December 2025 have broadly remained unchanged to 31 December 2024. The capitalisation rate sensitivity analysis is detailed below.

The sensitivity of shopping centre valuations to changes in capitalisation rates is as follows:

Taxation

The Trust comprises taxable and non-taxable entities. Income tax expense is only recognised in respect of taxable entities.

  • (i) The Trust has elected into the Attribution Managed Investment Trust Regime. Accordingly, the Trust is not liable for Australian income tax provided that the taxable income is attributed to members. The members of the Trust are taxable on their share of the taxable income of the Trust attributed to them.

The Trust’s New Zealand resident entities are subject to New Zealand tax.

  • (ii) Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance date. Income taxes related to items recognised directly in equity are recognised in equity and not in tax expense.

In September 2024, US$655.9 million of outstanding subordinated notes maturing in September 2080 were repurchased at a discount to their face value. The difference between the carrying amount of the notes repurchased and the consideration paid resulted in a gain being recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.

Accounting Policies

Interest income and financing costs

Interest income is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income as it accrues using the effective interest rate method.

Financing costs include interest, amortisation of discounts or premiums relating to borrowings and other costs incurred in connection with the arrangement of borrowings (including realised interest derivative cashflows). Financing costs are expensed as incurred unless they relate to a qualifying asset. A qualifying asset is an asset which generally takes more than 12 months to get ready for its intended use or sale. In these circumstances, the financing costs are capitalised to the cost of the asset. Where funds are borrowed by the Trust for the acquisition or construction of a qualifying asset, the financing costs are capitalised.

Refer to Note 14 for other items included in financing costs.

Any accrued interest income and financing costs at balance date have been classified as either interest receivable or interest payable on the balance sheet. Interest receivable comprises interest accrued on derivative instruments and short term deposits. Interest payable comprises interest accrued on interest bearing liabilities and derivative instruments. Interest receivable and payable on cross currency derivatives are presented gross and are not offset as the criteria for offsetting is not met.

Accounting Policies

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents on the balance sheet comprise cash at bank and on hand and short term deposits on demand with an original maturity of 90 days or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

Cash and cash equivalents are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, reduced by impairment losses. Interest income and impairment losses (if any) are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.

For purposes of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and at bank, short term deposits on demand and bank accepted bills of exchange readily converted to cash net of bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are carried at the principal amount.

Notes to the Financial Statements

For the year ended 31 December 2025

Note 13 – Interest bearing liabilities (continued)

Accounting Policies

Interest bearing liabilities

Interest bearing liabilities are recognised initially at the fair value of the consideration received less any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, interest bearing liabilities are recorded at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.

Interest bearing liabilities are classified as current liabilities where the liability has been drawn under a financing facility which expires within one year. Amounts drawn under financing facilities which expire after one year are classified as non-current, where the Trust has an unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. Loans payable to related entities are at call and classified as current.

Financing costs for interest bearing liabilities are recognised on an accruals basis.

The fair values of the Trust’s interest bearing liabilities as disclosed in Note 21 are determined as follows:

  • Fair values of quoted notes and bonds are based on price quotations at balance date.

  • The fair values of unquoted instruments, loans from banks and other non-current financial liabilities are estimated by discounting future cash flows using rates that approximate the Trust’s borrowing rate at the balance date, for debt with similar maturity, credit risk and terms.

Note 14 – Derivative assets and liabilities (continued)

The Trust’s derivatives do not meet the accounting requirements to qualify for hedge accounting treatment. Changes in fair value have been reflected in the statement of comprehensive income. At 31 December 2025, the aggregate fair value is a net receivable of $112.7 million (31 December 2024: $230.7 million). The change in fair value for the year ended 31 December 2025 was a net unrealised loss of $118.0 million (31 December 2024: net unrealised gain of $572.2 million). In 2025, the Trust settled currency derivatives at fair value following the buyback of US$732.1 million (31 December 2024: US$655.9 million) subordinated notes resulting in net proceeds of $128.3 million (31 December 2024: $23.0 million). In addition, the Trust cancelled interest rate derivatives following Scentre Group's sale of a 50% interest in Westfield Chermside resulting in a payment of $4.7 million (31 December 2024: nil).

The Trust presents the fair value mark to market of its derivative assets and derivative liabilities, and related interest receivable and payable, on a gross basis. These positions are subject to legally enforceable master netting arrangements, however do not meet the criteria for offsetting in the balance sheet. As at 31 December 2025, if these netting arrangements were applied, derivative assets and interest receivables of $301.5 million would be reduced by $160.0 million to the net amount of $141.5 million and derivative liabilities and interest payables of $160.0 million would be reduced by $160.0 million to the net amount of nil. As at 31 December 2024, if these netting arrangements were applied, derivative assets and interest receivables of $403.9 million would be reduced by $151.2 million to the net amount of $252.7 million and derivative liabilities and interest payables of $151.2 million would be reduced by $151.2 million to the net amount of nil.

Accounting Policies

Derivative financial instruments

The Trust utilises derivative financial instruments, including forward exchange contracts, interest rate options and currency and interest rate swaps to manage the risks associated with foreign currency and interest rate fluctuations. Such derivative financial instruments are recognised at fair value.

Scentre Group has set defined policies and implemented a comprehensive hedging program to manage interest and exchange rate risks. Derivative instruments are transacted to achieve the economic outcomes in line with Scentre Group’s treasury policy and hedging program. Derivative instruments are not transacted for speculative purposes. Accounting standards require detailed compliance with documentation, designation and effectiveness parameters before a derivative financial instrument is deemed to qualify for hedge accounting treatment. Where these requirements are not met, derivative instruments are deemed not to qualify for hedge accounting and changes in fair value are recorded in the statement of comprehensive income.

Gains or losses arising from the movements in the fair value of currency derivatives which hedge net investments in foreign operations are recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve where hedge accounting requirements have been met. Where a currency derivative, or portion thereof, is deemed an ineffective hedge for accounting purposes, gains or losses thereon are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. On disposal of a net investment in foreign operations, the cumulative gains or losses recognised previously in the foreign currency translation reserve are transferred to the statement of comprehensive income.

The fair value of derivatives has been determined with reference to market observable inputs for contracts with similar maturity profiles. The valuation is a present value calculation which incorporates interest rate curves, foreign exchange spot and forward rates, option volatilities and the credit quality of counterparties.

Accounting Policies

Translation of accounts of foreign operations

The functional and presentation currency of the Trust and its Australian subsidiaries is Australian dollars. The functional currency of the New Zealand entities is New Zealand dollars. The presentation currency of the overseas entities is Australian dollars to enable the consolidated financial statements of the Trust to be reported in a common currency.

The balance sheets of foreign subsidiaries and equity accounted investments are translated at exchange rates ruling at balance date and the statement of comprehensive income of foreign subsidiaries and equity accounted investments are translated at average exchange rates for the period. Exchange differences arising on translation of the interests in foreign operations are taken directly to the foreign currency translation reserve.

Note 18 – Capital and financial risk management

The Trust forms part of Scentre Group which is a stapled entity comprising the Trust, SGL, SGT1, SGT3 and their respective controlled entities. The stapled group operates as a single economic entity with a common Board of Directors and management team. Capital and financial risks are therefore managed from the stapled group’s perspective rather than the silos that make up the stapled group.

Refer to Note 21: Capital risk management, Note 22: Financial risk management, Note 23: Interest rate risk management, Note 24: Exchange rate risk management, Note 25: Credit risk management and Note 26: Liquidity risk management of Scentre Group’s 2025 Annual Report for details of Scentre Group’s policies in identifying, assessing and managing the capital and financial risks of the stapled group.

(i) These financial assets and liabilities are not subject to interest rate risk and the fair value approximates carrying amount.

(ii) These financial assets and liabilities are subject to interest rate and/or market risks, the basis of determining the fair value is set out in the fair value hierarchy below.

(iii) On 19 December 2025, the Trust acquired units in an unlisted fund for $50.0 million. There are no material changes to the carrying value of the investment to the end of the year.

Determination of fair value

The Responsible Entity uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of a financial instrument. The valuation techniques comprise:

Level 1: the fair value is calculated using quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: the fair value is estimated using inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices).

Level 3: the fair value is estimated using inputs that are not based on observable market data.

In assessing the fair value of the Trust’s financial instruments, consideration is given to available market data and if the market for a financial instrument changes then the valuation technique applied will change accordingly.

During the year, there were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements.

Investment properties are considered Level 3, refer to Note 4: Investment properties and Note 5: Details of shopping centre investments for relevant fair value disclosures.

Notes to the Financial Statements

For the year ended 31 December 2025

Note 22 – Other material accounting policies

(a) Consolidation and classification

This consolidated financial report comprises the financial statements and notes to the financial statements of SGT2, and each of its controlled entities as from the date SGT2 obtained control until such time control ceased. SGT2 and its controlled entities are collectively referred to as the economic entity known as the Trust. Where entities adopt accounting policies which differ from those of SGT2, adjustments have been made so as to achieve consistency within the Trust.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all inter-entity transactions and balances, including unrealised profits arising from intra-group transactions, have been eliminated in full. Unrealised losses are eliminated unless costs cannot be recovered.

(i) Joint arrangements

(b) Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except where the GST incurred on the purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the tax authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable. Receivables and payables are stated with the amounts of GST included.

The net amount of GST payable or receivable to government authorities is included as part of receivables or payables on the balance sheet.

Cash flows are included in the cash flow statement on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is classified as operating cash flow.

Commitments and contingent liabilities are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority.

Joint operations

The Trust has significant co-ownership interests in a number of properties through unincorporated joint ventures. These interests are held directly and jointly as tenants in common. The Trust has the rights to the individual assets and obligations arising from these interests and recognises its share of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the operation.

(c) Recoverable amount of assets

At each reporting date, the Trust assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. Where an indicator of impairment exists, the Trust makes an estimate of recoverable amount. Where the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

Joint ventures

The Trust has significant co-ownership interests in a number of properties through property partnerships, trusts or companies. These joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method of accounting.

The Trust and its joint ventures use consistent accounting policies. Investments in joint ventures are carried in the consolidated balance sheet at cost plus post-acquisition changes in the Trust’s share of the net assets of the joint ventures. The consolidated statement of comprehensive income reflects the Trust’s share of the results of operations of the joint ventures.

(d) Translation of foreign currency transactions

Foreign currency transactions are converted to Australian dollars at exchange rates ruling at the date of those transactions. Amounts payable and receivable in foreign currency at balance date are translated to Australian dollars at exchange rates ruling at that date. Exchange differences arising on the settlement of or on translating amounts payable or receivable in foreign currency at rates different from those at which they were translated on initial recognition, are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income in the period in which they arise, except where hedge accounting is applied.

(ii) Controlled entities

Where an entity either began or ceased to be a controlled entity during the reporting period, the results are included only from the date control commenced or up to the date control ceased. Non-controlling interests are shown as a separate item in the consolidated financial statements.

(e) Assets and liabilities held for sale

Non-current assets or disposal groups are classified as held for sale if it is highly probable that they will be recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use. They are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell, except for assets such as financial assets and investment property that are carried at fair value. Assets and liabilities classified as held for sale are presented separately as current items in the balance sheet.

Entities of Scentre Group have provided guarantees in respect of certain Westfield Corporation Limited joint venture operations in the United Kingdom. Under the Restructure and Merger Implementation Deed, the entities of Scentre Group and Westfield Corporation have cross indemnified each other for any claims that may be made or payment that may be required under such guarantees. On 7 June 2018, Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield acquired the entities of Westfield Corporation, including Westfield Corporation Limited.

The Trust’s obligation in respect of performance guarantees may be called on at any time dependent upon the performance or non-performance of certain third parties.

From time to time, in the normal course of business, the Trust is involved in lawsuits. The Directors believe that the ultimate outcome of such pending litigation will not materially affect the results of operations or the financial position of the Trust.

Report on the audit of the financial report

Opinion

We have audited the financial report of Scentre Group Trust 2 and its controlled entities (the Trust), which comprises the consolidated balance sheet as at 31 December 2025, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated cash flow statement for the year then ended, notes to the financial statements, including material accounting policy information, the consolidated entity disclosure statement and the directors’ declaration.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Trust is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:

  • a. Giving a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Trust as at 31 December 2025 and of its consolidated financial performance for the year ended on that date; and

  • b. Complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report section of our report. We are independent of the Trust 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 audits of the financial report of public interest entities in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report of the current year. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial report as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, but we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. For each matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter is provided in that context.

We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report section of our report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, our audit included the performance of procedures designed to respond to our assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial report. The results of our audit procedures, including the procedures performed to address the matters below, provide the basis for our audit opinion on the accompanying financial report.

Shopping centre investment properties – carrying values and revaluations

Why significant

At 31 December 2025, the Trust holds economic interests in shopping centre investment properties which are carried at a fair value of $18.0 billion as disclosed in Note 2. These include shopping centres recorded directly in the consolidated balance sheet as investment properties and indirectly through equity accounted investments. Collectively, they represent 97% of total assets.

Fair values were determined by the Trust at the end of the reporting period with reference to the latest external independent property valuations and market conditions existing at the reporting date. Changes in fair value are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.

We considered this to be a key audit matter as property valuations are based on certain assumptions, such as capitalisation rates, market rent, occupancy levels, re-leasing and capital expenditure, which are judgmental in nature. Minor changes in certain assumptions can lead to significant changes in valuations.

We draw attention to Notes 4 and 5 of the financial report which discloses the accounting policy for these assets and sensitivities to changes in the key assumptions that may impact these valuations.

How our audit addressed the key audit matter

Our audit procedures included the following for both properties held directly and through equity accounted investments:

  • We inquired of the following matters with management: – Movements in the Trust’s investment property portfolio;

  • Changes in the condition of each property, including an understanding of key developments and changes to development activities; and

  • Changes in the Trust’s investment property portfolio including understanding leasing activity and tenant occupancy risk.

  • We assessed the effectiveness of the Trust’s relevant controls over the leasing process and associated schedule of tenancy reports, which are used as source data in the property valuations.

  • On a sample basis, we performed the following procedures on the key assumptions adopted in the valuations:

  • We assessed net income, lease expiry and vacancy assumptions adopted against the schedule of tenancy reports, lease expiry profile and vacancy levels of the underlying asset;

  • We assessed the re-leasing and capital expenditure requirement assumptions in light of the current leasing status of the property;

  • Where available, we corroborated these assumptions to supporting lease documentation or external market data; and

  • Tested the mathematical accuracy of valuations.

  • We involved our real estate valuation specialists to assist with:

  • the assessment of capitalisation rates adopted across the portfolio; and

  • – the review and assessment of the property valuations for a sample of properties based on size, geographical location and other property valuation specific risk factors.

  • We evaluated the suitability of the valuation methodology used by management across the portfolio. We assessed the reports of independent valuers to gain an understanding of the assumptions and estimates used and the valuation methodology applied.

  • Where relevant, we assessed the reasonableness of comparable transactions utilised by the Trust in the valuation process.

  • • We assessed the qualifications, competence and objectivity of the external and internal valuers used by the Trust.

  • • We also assessed the adequacy and appropriateness of disclosures included in Notes 4 and 5 of the financial report.

Independent Auditor’s Report

Information other than the financial report and auditor’s report thereon

The directors of RE1 Limited, the Responsible Entity of the Trust, are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Trust’s annual report for the year ended 31 December 2025, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon.

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, 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.

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Responsibilities of the directors of the Responsible Entity for the financial report

The directors of the Responsible Entity are responsible for the preparation of:

  • The financial report (other than the consolidated entity disclosure statement) that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 ; and

  • The consolidated entity disclosure statement that is true and correct in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 ; and

for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of:

  • The financial report (other than the consolidated entity disclosure statement) that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; and

  • The consolidated entity disclosure statement that is true and correct and is free of misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial report, the directors of the Responsible Entity are responsible for assessing the Trust’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters relating to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Trust or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report

Our objectives are 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 the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and 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 this financial report.

As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust’s internal control.

  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors of the Responsible Entity.

  • Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors of the Responsible Entity’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Trust’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Trust to cease to continue as a going concern.

  • • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  • Plan and perform the Group audit to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business units within the Group as a basis for forming an opinion on the Group financial report. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and review of the audit work performed for the purposes of the Group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with the directors of the Responsible Entity, regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide the directors of the Responsible Entity with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied.

From the matters communicated to the directors of the Responsible Entity, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current year and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

1. Operating and financial review

1.1 Operating overview

Scentre Group owns and operates 42 Westfield destinations (40 jointly held by the Trust) with 37 located in Australia and five in New Zealand. Westfield destinations are strategically located in close proximity to the majority of the population in Australia and New Zealand and form part of the social fabric of the communities we serve.

5. Indemnities and insurance premiums

Subject to the following, no indemnity was given, or insurance premium paid during or since the end of the Financial Year out of the assets of the Trust in regards to a person who is or has been an officer or auditor of the Responsible Entity. So long as the Responsible Entity acts in accordance with the Constitution and the Corporations Act 2001 , it remains indemnified out of the assets of the Trust against any losses incurred while acting as the Responsible Entity.

The Responsible Entity’s Constitution provides that a person who is or has been a Director or Secretary of the Responsible Entity may be indemnified by the Responsible Entity against liabilities incurred by the person in that capacity and for all legal costs incurred in defending or resisting (or otherwise in connection with) proceedings in which the person becomes involved because of that capacity. The indemnity does not apply to the extent that the Responsible Entity is forbidden by statute to indemnify the person or the indemnity would, if given, be made void by statute.

A related corporation of the Responsible Entity has paid premiums for directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in respect of Directors, Secretaries and Executive Officers of the Responsible Entity as permitted by the Corporations Act 2001 . The terms of the insurance policy prohibit disclosure of details of the nature of the liabilities covered by, and the amounts of the premiums payable under, that insurance policy.

In addition, each Director has entered into a Deed of Indemnity and Access which provides for indemnity against liability as a Director, except where prohibited by statute. The Deed also entitles the Director to access the Responsible Entity’s documents and records, subject to undertakings as to confidentiality.

To the extent permitted by law, the Responsible Entity has agreed to indemnify its auditor, Ernst & Young (EY), as part of the standard terms of its audit engagement against claims by third parties arising from the audit (for an unspecified amount). No payment with respect to such indemnity has been made to EY during or since the Financial Year.

6. Special rules for registered schemes

  • $76.5 million in fees were paid and payable to the Responsible Entity and its associates out of the assets of the Trust during the Financial Year.

  • $110.7 million of development and construction billings were paid or payable to associates of the Responsible Entity out of the assets of the Trust during the Financial Year.

  • No units in the Trust were held by the Responsible Entity at the end of the Financial Year. Associates of the Responsible Entity held 11,386,340 units as at 20 February 2026.

  • No withdrawals were made from the scheme during the Financial Year.

  • Details of the value of the Trust’s assets as at the end of the Financial Year and the basis for the valuation are set out in Notes 2, 4, 5 and 21 to the Financial Report.

  • Details of the number of units in the Trust as at the end of the Financial Year are set out in Note 15 to the Financial Report.

7. Audit

7.1 Audit and Finance Committee

As at the date of this report, the Responsible Entity had a Board Audit and Finance Committee.

Details of the activities of the Committee are outlined in the Corporate Governance Statement that is included in Scentre Group’s 2025 Annual Report.

7.2 Auditor’s fees and audit independence

Details of the amounts paid to EY, the Trust’s auditor, are set out in Note 28 to the Financial Report. .

The Board is satisfied that the provision of these services by the auditor during the Financial Year is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by the Corporations Act 2001 .

Notes to the Financial Statements

For the year ended 31 December 2025

Note 1 – Basis of preparation of the Financial Report

(a) Corporate information

This financial report of Scentre Group Trust 3 (SGT3) and its controlled entities (collectively the Trust), for the year ended 31 December 2025, was approved in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors of RE2 Limited as Responsible Entity of SGT3.

SGT3 is domiciled in Australia. The nature of the operations and principal activity of the Trust are described in the Directors’ Report.

(b) Accounting for the Trust

The Trust is part of Scentre Group which is a stapled entity comprising Scentre Group Limited (SGL), Scentre Group Trust 1 (SGT1), Scentre Group Trust 2 (SGT2), SGT3 and their respective controlled entities. Scentre Group was established on 30 June 2014. The securities of each of SGL, SGT1, SGT2 and SGT3 are stapled and trade as one security on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) under the code SCG. The stapled securities of SGL, SGT1, SGT2 and SGT3 cannot be traded separately.

(c) Going concern

This financial report has been prepared on a going concern basis. In making this assessment, the Directors have considered Scentre Group’s ability to meet its financial obligations over the next 12 months, using cash flow sensitivity analysis and having regard to maturity of interest bearing liabilities, funding requirements, operating cash earnings and available financing facilities.

(d) Basis of Accounting

This financial report is a general purpose financial report, which has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 (Corporations Act), Australian Accounting Standards and other authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board.

(e) Statement of Compliance

This financial report complies with Australian Accounting Standards and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year. The amendments in AASB 2023-5 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Lack of Exchangeability became applicable on 1 January 2025 but did not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Trust.

Certain Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations have recently been issued or amended but are not yet effective and have not been adopted by the Trust for the year ended 31 December 2025. The impact of these new standards or amendments to the standards and interpretations (to the extent relevant to the Trust) is as follows:

  • AASB 2024-2 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (effective 1 January 2026)

  • This amends AASB 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures and AASB 9 Financial Instruments to:

  • (i) clarify the date of recognition and derecognition of some financial assets and liabilities;

  • (ii) clarify and add further guidance for assessing whether a financial asset meets the solely payments of principal and interest criterion;

  • (iii) add new disclosures for certain instruments with contractual terms that can change cash flows (such as some financial instruments with features linked to the achievement of environment, social and governance targets); and

  • (iv) update the disclosures for equity instruments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income.

These amendments are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements on application.

This financial report has been prepared on a historical cost basis and is presented in Australian dollars.

Notes to the Financial Statements

For the year ended 31 December 2025

Note 1 – Basis of preparation of the Financial Report (continued)

(e) Statement of Compliance (continued)

  • AASB 2024-3 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards – Annual Improvements Volume 11 (effective 1 January 2026)

  • This makes minor improvements to address inconsistencies or to clarify requirements in:

  • (i) AASB 1 First-time Adoption of Australian Accounting Standards – to improve consistency between AASB 1 and AASB 9 in relation to the requirements for hedge accounting, and improve the understandability of AASB 1;

  • (ii) AASB 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures – to improve consistency in the language used in AASB 7 with the language used in AASB 13 Fair Value Measurement ;

  • (iii) AASB 9 Financial Instruments – to clarify how a lessee accounts for the derecognition of a lease liability when it is extinguished and address an inconsistency between AASB 9 and AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers in relation to the term ‘transaction price’;

  • (iv) AASB 10 Consolidated Financial Statements – to clarify the requirements in relation to determining de facto agents of an entity; and

  • (v) AASB 107 Statement of Cash Flows – to replace the term ‘cost method’ with ‘at cost’ as the term is no longer defined in Australian Accounting Standards.

These amendments are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements on application.

  • AASB 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements (effective from 1 January 2027)

This replaces AASB 101 Presentation of Financial Statements with a focus on updates to the income statement. The key presentation and disclosure requirements established under the new standard relate to:

  • (i) the structure of the income statement with defined subtotals;

  • (ii) requirement to determine the most useful structure summary for presenting expenses in the income statement;

  • (iii) the disclosure of management-defined performance measures in a single note within the financial statements; and

  • (iv) enhanced principles on aggregation and disaggregation which apply to the primary financial statements and notes in general.

The presentation and new disclosure requirements under the new standard are expected to have a material impact on the financial statements of the Trust on application. The Trust will apply the new standard from its mandatory effective date of 1 January 2027 and the comparative information for the financial year ending 31 December 2026 will be restated in accordance with AASB 18.

(f) Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

The preparation of the financial report requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management bases its judgements and estimates on historical experience and various other factors it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.

Further details of the nature of judgements, estimates and assumptions may be found in the relevant notes to the financial statements, in particular, Note 13: Fair value of assets and liabilities and Note 14: Other material accounting policies.

(g) Comparative information

Where applicable, certain comparative figures are restated in order to comply with the current period’s presentation of the financial statements.

(h) Rounding

In accordance with ASIC Corporations (Rounding in Financial/Directors’ Reports) Instrument 2016/191, the amounts shown in this financial report have been rounded to the nearest thousand dollars, unless otherwise indicated. Amounts shown as 0 represent amounts less than $500 that have been rounded down.

Accounting Policies

Taxation

The Trust comprises taxable entities in Australia and New Zealand. SGT3 is treated as a company for Australian tax purposes.

Accounting for income tax

Current income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the tax authorities, calculated using the tax rates and tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date in the countries where the Trust operates and generates taxable income. Current income tax relating to items recognised directly in equity is recognised in equity and not in the tax expense.

Deferred tax is provided on all temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes at the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply when the asset is realised or the liability is settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted at the reporting date. Deferred tax relating to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity and not in the statement of comprehensive income.

The Trust has applied the exception in AASB 112 Income Taxes to recognising and disclosing information about deferred tax assets and liabilities related to Pillar Two income taxes.

Cash and cash equivalents on the balance sheet comprise cash at bank and on hand and short term deposits on demand with an original maturity of 90 days or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

Cash and cash equivalents are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, reduced by impairment losses. Interest income and impairment losses (if any) are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.

For the purposes of the cash flow statement, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and at bank, short term deposits on demand and bank accepted bills of exchange readily converted to cash net of bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are carried at the principal amount.

Receivables are held to collect contractual cash flows and these contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest. At initial recognition, the Trust measures these financial assets at its fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. These financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, reduced by impairment losses. Interest income and impairment losses are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.

In assessing for impairment, the Trust assesses on a forward-looking basis the expected credit losses associated with its financial assets carried at amortised cost. For receivables, the Trust applies the simplified approach which requires lifetime expected losses to be recognised from initial recognition of the receivables.

In measuring the expected credit loss, receivables have been grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics (e.g. size and industry) and the days past due. The expected loss rates are determined based on days past the due date and the historical credit losses experienced. Historical loss rates are adjusted to reflect current and forward looking information on macroeconomic factors affecting the ability to settle the receivables.

The Trust considers a financial asset to be in default when contractual payments are 90 days past due. However, in certain cases, the Trust may also consider a financial asset to be in default when internal or external information indicates that the Trust is unlikely to receive the outstanding contractual amounts in full before taking into account any credit enhancements held by the Trust. A receivable is written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovering the contractual cashflows. Any gain or loss on derecognition is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income.

Note 11 – Capital and financial risk management

The Trust forms part of Scentre Group which is a stapled entity comprising the Trust, SGL, SGT1, SGT2 and their respective controlled entities. The stapled group operates as a single economic entity with a common Board of Directors and management team. Capital and financial risks are therefore managed from the stapled group’s perspective rather than the silos that make up the stapled group.

Refer to Note 21: Capital risk management, Note 22: Financial risk management, Note 23: Interest rate risk management, Note 24: Exchange rate risk management, Note 25: Credit risk management and Note 26: Liquidity risk management of Scentre Group’s 2025 Annual Report for details of Scentre Group’s policies in identifying, assessing and managing the capital and financial risks of the stapled group.

Note 12 – Financial covenants

Scentre Group, of which the Trust is part, is required to comply with certain financial covenants in respect of its unsecured borrowing facilities and senior notes payables.

Refer to Note 27: Financial covenants of Scentre Group’s 2025 Annual Report for details of Scentre Group’s financial covenants.

Notes to the Financial Statements

For the year ended 31 December 2025

Note 14 – Other material accounting policies

(a) Consolidation and classification

This consolidated financial report comprises the financial statements and notes to the financial statements of SGT3, and each of its controlled entities as from the date SGT3 obtained control until such time control ceased. SGT3 and its controlled entities are collectively referred to as the economic entity known as the Trust. Where entities adopt accounting policies which differ from those of SGT3, adjustments have been made so as to achieve consistency within the Trust.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, all inter-entity transactions and balances, including unrealised profits arising from intra-group transactions, have been eliminated in full. Unrealised losses are eliminated unless costs cannot be recovered.

(b) Translation of foreign currency transactions

Foreign currency transactions are converted to Australian dollars at exchange rates ruling at the date of those transactions. Amounts payable and receivable in foreign currency at balance date are translated to Australian dollars at exchange rates ruling at that date. Exchange differences arising from amounts payable and receivable are treated as operating revenue or expense in the period in which they arise.

(c) Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognised as services are provided and brought to account on an accruals basis.

(e) Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Revenue, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of GST except where the GST incurred on purchase of goods and services is not recoverable from the tax authority, in which case the GST is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense item as applicable. Receivables and payables are stated with the amounts of GST included.

The net amount of GST payable or receivable to government authorities is included as part of receivables or payables on the balance sheet.

Cash flows are included in the cash flow statement on a gross basis and the GST component of cash flows arising from investing and financing activities, which is recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority are classified as operating cash flows.

Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority.

(f) Payables and other creditors

Trade and other payables are carried at amortised cost and due to their short term nature they are not discounted. They represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the Trust prior to the end of the financial year that are unpaid and arise when the Trust becomes obliged to make future payments in respect of the purchase of these goods and services. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days.

(g) Recoverable amount of assets

(d) Expenses

Expenses are brought to account on an accruals basis.

(d) Interest income and financing costs

Interest income is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income as it accrues using the effective interest rate method. Financing costs include interest, amortisation of discounts or premiums relating to borrowings and other costs incurred in connection with the arrangement of borrowings. Financing costs are expensed as incurred.

At each reporting date, the Trust assesses whether there is any indication that an asset may be impaired. Where an indicator of impairment exists, the Trust makes an estimate of recoverable amount. Where the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount.

Entities of Scentre Group have provided guarantees in respect of certain Westfield Corporation Limited joint venture operations in the United Kingdom. Under the Restructure and Merger Implementation Deed, the entities of Scentre Group and Westfield Corporation have cross indemnified each other for any claims that may be made or payment that may be required under such guarantees. On 7 June 2018, Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield acquired the entities of Westfield Corporation, including Westfield Corporation Limited.

The Trust’s obligation in respect of performance guarantees may be called on at anytime dependent upon the performance or nonperformance of certain third parties.

From time to time, in the normal course of business, the Trust is involved in lawsuits. The Directors believe that the ultimate outcome of such pending litigation will not materially affect the results of operations or the financial position of the Trust.

Report on the audit of the financial report

Opinion

We have audited the financial report of Scentre Group Trust 3 and its controlled entities (the Trust), which comprises the consolidated balance sheet as at 31 December 2025, the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated cash flow statement for the year then ended, notes to the financial statements, including material accounting policy information, the consolidated entity disclosure statement and the directors’ declaration.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial report of the Trust is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 , including:

  • a. Giving a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Trust as at 31 December 2025 and of its consolidated financial performance for the year ended on that date; and

  • b. Complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001 .

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report section of our report. We are independent of the Trust 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 audits of the financial report of public interest entities in Australia. We have also fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial report of the current year. We have determined that there are no key audit matters to communicate in our report.

Information other than the financial report and auditor’s report thereon

The directors of RE2 Limited, the Responsible Entity of the Trust, are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Trust’s annual report for the year ended 31 December 2025, but does not include the financial report and our auditor’s report thereon.

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and accordingly we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, 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.

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Financial Report

Responsibilities of the directors of the Responsible Entity for the financial report

The directors of the Responsible Entity are responsible for the preparation of:

  • The financial report (other than the consolidated entity disclosure statement) that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 ; and

  • The consolidated entity disclosure statement that is true and correct in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 ; and

for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of:

  • The financial report (other than the consolidated entity disclosure statement) that gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; and

  • The consolidated entity disclosure statement that is true and correct and is free of misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial report, the directors of the Responsible Entity are responsible for assessing the Trust’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters relating to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Trust or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial report

Our objectives are 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 the Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and 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 this financial report.

As part of an audit in accordance with the Australian Auditing Standards, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial report, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust’s internal control.

  • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the directors of the Responsible Entity.

  • Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Trust’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Trust to cease to continue as a going concern.

  • Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures, and whether the financial report represents the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  • Plan and perform the Group audit to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business units within the Group as a basis for forming an opinion on the Group financial report. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and review of the audit work performed for the purposes of the Group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

26 | SCENTRE GROUP Scentre Group Trust 3 2025 Annual Financial Report

Independent Auditor’s Report

We communicate with the directors of the Responsible Entity, regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide the directors of the Responsible Entity with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied.

From the matters communicated to the directors of the Responsible Entity, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the financial report of the current year and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

Directors’ Report

The Directors of RE2 Limited (Responsible Entity), the responsible entity of Scentre Group Trust 3 (the Trust or SGT3) submit the following report for the year ended 31 December 2025 (Financial Year).

The Trust is part of Scentre Group which is a stapled entity comprising Scentre Group Limited (SGL), Scentre Group Trust 1 (SGT1), Scentre Group Trust 2 (SGT2), the Trust and their respective controlled entities. Scentre Group operates as a single coordinated economic entity, with a common Board of Directors and management team.

1. Operating and financial review

1.1 2025 economic performance

The Trust reported a net profit after tax of $539,000. The decrease in profit after tax is primarily due to the reduction in the number of Superscreen assets held by the Trust.

As at 31 December 2025, SGT3 had net assets of $12,066,000, a decrease of $3,803,000 since 31 December 2024.

There have been no significant changes in the Trust’s state of affairs during the Financial Year.

A detailed operating and financial review for Scentre Group is contained in the Directors’ Report in Scentre Group’s 2025 Annual Report which is available at https://www.scentregroup. com/investors/annual-reporting-suite.

1.2 2026 guidance and outlook

Scentre Group’s strategy to grow the economic activity at its Westfield destinations by attracting more people to Westfield destinations, broadening the businesses that partner with us, and better utilising our substantial land holdings, is expected to continue to deliver sustainable long-term growth in earnings and distributions.

Subject to no material change in conditions, Scentre Group’s target for Funds From Operations (FFO) is 23.73 cents per security in 2026, representing at least 4.0% growth for the year.

Scentre Group’s distributions are expected to grow by 4.0% for 2026 to 18.43 cents per security.

1.3 Events after the reporting period

1.5 Future developments

At the date of this report, there is no proposed change to the operating activities of the Trust.

The strategy, key drivers and outlook of Scentre Group are described in the Directors’ Report in Scentre Group’s 2025 Annual Report.

1.6 Risk

Scentre Group looks at risk from a number of perspectives: global risk trends, social and environmental risks and retail property specific risks. These risks are subject to continuous assessment and review.

As a property group involved in the design, development, management and operation of retail shopping centres, Scentre Group faces a number of operational risks which have the potential to affect the achievement of our targeted financial outcomes.

A number of important strategic risks and how such risks are managed and monitored are outlined in Scentre Group’s 2025 Annual Report.

1.7 Environmental regulation

Environmental laws and regulations in force in the various jurisdictions in which Scentre Group operates are applicable to areas of Scentre Group’s operations and in particular to its development, construction and shopping centre management activities.

Scentre Group has in place procedures to identify and comply with such requirements including complying with the conditions of relevant authority consents and approvals and obtaining any necessary licences. Scentre Group’s compliance procedures are regularly reviewed and audited and their application closely monitored and Scentre Group’s approach to sustainability risks is outlined in Scentre Group’s 2025 Annual Report.

1.8 Sustainability Reporting

In accordance with s292A(2) of the Corporations Act 2001 , Scentre Group Limited prepared its Sustainability Report on a consolidated basis (which included the Trust). The Sustainability Report is included in Scentre Group’s 2025 Annual Report.

No event has occurred since the end of the Financial Year which would significantly affect the operations of the Trust.

1.4 Principal activity

The principal activity of the Trust during the Financial Year was the holding of interests in long term brand alliance agreements with various third parties in respect of a number of properties. These agreements provide for the licensing of space in the relevant properties for the display of advertising in consideration for the payment of licence fees.

There was no significant change in the nature of the principal activity during the Financial Year.

5. Indemnities and insurance premiums

Subject to the following, no indemnity was given, or insurance premium paid during or since the end of the Financial Year out of the assets of the Trust in regards to a person who is or has been an officer or auditor of the Responsible Entity. So long as the Responsible Entity acts in accordance with the Constitution and the Corporations Act 2001 , it remains indemnified out of the assets of the Trust against any losses incurred while acting as the Responsible Entity.

The Responsible Entity’s Constitution provides that a person who is or has been a Director or Secretary of the Responsible Entity may be indemnified by the Responsible Entity against liabilities incurred by the person in that capacity and for all legal costs incurred in defending or resisting (or otherwise in connection with) proceedings in which the person becomes involved because of that capacity. The indemnity does not apply to the extent that the Responsible Entity is forbidden by statute to indemnify the person or the indemnity would, if given, be made void by statute.

A related corporation of the Responsible Entity has paid premiums for directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in respect of Directors, Secretaries and Executive Officers of the Responsible Entity as permitted by the Corporations Act 2001 . The terms of the insurance policy prohibit disclosure of details of the nature of the liabilities covered by, and the amounts of the premiums payable under, that insurance policy.

In addition, each Director has entered into a Deed of Indemnity and Access which provides for indemnity against liability as a Director, except where prohibited by statute. The Deed also entitles the Director to access the Responsible Entity’s documents and records, subject to undertakings as to confidentiality.

To the extent permitted by law, the Responsible Entity has agreed to indemnify its auditor, Ernst & Young (EY), as part of the standard terms of its audit engagement against claims by third parties arising from the audit (for an unspecified amount). No payment with respect to such indemnity has been made to EY during or since the Financial Year.

6. Special rules for registered schemes

  • $246,871 in fees were paid to the Responsible Entity and its associates out of the assets of the Trust during the Financial Year.

  • No units in the Trust were held by the Responsible Entity at the end of the Financial Year. Associates of the Responsible Entity held 11,386,340 units as at 20 February 2026.

  • Details of units issued in the Trust during the Financial Year are set out in Note 8 to the Financial Report.

  • No withdrawals were made from the scheme during the Financial Year.

  • Details of the value of the Trust’s assets as at the end of the Financial Year and the basis of the valuation are set out in Note 7 and Note 13 to the Financial Report.

  • Details of the number of units issued in the Trust during and as at the end of the Financial Year are set out in Note 8 to the Financial Report.

7. Audit

7.1 Audit and Finance Committee

As at the date of this report, the Responsible Entity had a Board Audit and Finance Committee.

Details of the activities of the Committee are outlined in Scentre Group’s Corporate Governance Statement that is included in Scentre Group’s 2025 Annual Report.

7.2 Auditor’s fees and audit independence

Details of the amounts paid to EY, the Trust’s auditor, are set out in Note 19 to the Financial Report.

The Board is satisfied that the provision of these services by the auditor during the Financial Year is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by the Corporations Act 2001 .
