Valuation Gains At Shopping Centres Australia Expected To Be Offset By Cap Ex Derivates Losses

SCA Property Group has reported increases in its property valuations of $34.5m or +0.7% as at June 2022 but other balance sheets movements are expected to offset the gains.The valuation increase on like-for-like properties was due to:A minor increase in the Net Operating Income of $2.3m (up +0.9%) from December 2021;A tightening of the capitalisation rate of 2bps, from 5.45% at December 2021 to 5.43% at June 2022;A compression of 2bps on the discount rate, from 6.19% at December 2021 to 6.17% at June 2022.The total value of SCP’s Investment Properties has increased from $4,426.4m at December 2021 to $4,460.9m at June 2022.Shopping Centres Australia indicated that the valuation gains will be offset by capital expenditure during the period and movements in other balance sheet items including an expected negative movement in the mark-to-market valuation of the cross-currency & interest rate swaps (derivates) that are taken out to hedge the foreign currency exposure US dollar denominated Notes issued by the Group.There were no acquisitions or disposals during the period (aside from those classified as assets held for sale in the December 2021 financial accounts).Investment Property Portfolio Summary$mDecember 2021 Portfolio Valuation4,426.4Add: Valuation increase ‘like for like’34.5June 2022 Portfolio Valuation4,460.9Valuation Weighted Average Capitalisation RateDecember 2021: % Rate5.45%Cap Rate tightening(0.02)%June 2022: % Rate5.43%A total of 43 properties from the like-for-like portfolio of 91 were valued externally over the period and make up $28.2m of the total increase in valuation (an increase of 1.4%).
