Premium CBD Platform Still Earning Its Keep

The bullish story around Precinct Properties hinges on premium CBD assets throwing off steady cash flow. FFO of NZ$129.5m or NZ$0.0731 per share supports that view, especially with portfolio occupancy around 97% and a longer 7.1 year weighted average lease term. Record leasing volumes with positive office leasing spreads and a portfolio that is roughly 3% under-rented point to income that is holding up for now. The board holding the NZ$0.0675 dividend with a payout near 92% of FFO also aligns with the premium, income focused narrative.

Office Risk, Development Drag And NTA Pressure

The cautious narrative around Precinct Properties is not misplaced. Net tangible assets have eased to NZ$1.13 per share as development asset revaluations and the Downtown car park project weigh on the balance sheet. Reported net income moved from profit to a loss of NZ$8.2m and basic EPS turned negative even as FFO remained positive. The share price falling roughly 8% over 30 days suggests investors are focusing on office sector risk and the execution and timing challenges on a multi billion staged Downtown project, despite lower gearing around 29% and expanded capital partnerships.

Compare how that 97% occupancy, long 7.1-year lease term and 92% FFO payout stack up against the loss at the bottom line and recent share price pressure, then see whether institutional forecasts reflect confidence or caution.
