Goodman Property Trust (NZX: GMT) Signals $415 million Second Half Portfolio Revaluation

Wednesday 10th March 2021

Goodman (NZ) Limited, the Manager of Goodman Property Trust, advises that GMT’s financial result for the year ending 31 March 2021 is expected to contain a significant property revaluation gain.

Draft valuation reports from independent valuers indicate that GMT’s property portfolio will post a second half gain of approximately $415 million or around 12.5%. The positive outcome is in addition to the $140 million revaluation recorded in the first half, and as a result, the portfolio is expected to have a value of around $3.8 billion at 31 March 2021.

John Dakin, Chief Executive Officer said, “We continue to see strong demand for space, tight supply conditions, low vacancy and solid underlying rental growth across our portfolio. This, combined with relatively low interest rates, has fuelled investor demand, particularly for high-quality logistics and warehouse property. The market capitalisation rate across the portfolio has strengthened 50bps from 30 September 2020 to 4.7%.”

The increase in portfolio value over the last six months is expected to add around 30 cents per unit to GMT’s NTA , which was 182.4 cents per unit at 30 September 2020.

The revaluation remains subject to finalisation and independent audit. It is also contingent on there being no material change in market conditions before 31 March 2021, the effective date of the valuation reports.
