INTERIM MANAGEMENT STATEMENT

 

This interim management statement relates to the 6 months ended 30 June 2023
and contains information that covers the period from 1 January 2023 to 19
September 2023, the date of publication of this interim management statement.

 

BUSINESS REVIEW

 

The company is a subsidiary of Canary Wharf Group plc, Canary Wharf Group
Investment Holdings plc, and its ultimate parent undertaking Stork Holdco LP,
an entity registered in Bermuda.

 

The company is a finance vehicle that issues securities which are backed by
commercial mortgages over properties within the Canary Wharf Estate.  The
company is engaged in the provision of finance to the Canary Wharf Group,
comprising Canary Wharf Group plc, the ultimate parent undertaking Stork
Holdco LP and the wider group subsidiaries.  The Group owns, manages and
develops the Canary Wharf Estate (the 'Estate') in East London.  References
to 'the Group' and 'Canary Wharf Group' refer to Stork Holdco LP and its
subsidiaries.  All activities take place within the United Kingdom.  The
company plans to continue trading in the same manner for the foreseeable
future.

 

At 30 June 2023, the company had £1,340,874,320 (31 December 2022 -
£1,355,536,920) of notes listed on the London Stock Exchange and had lent the
proceeds to a fellow subsidiary undertaking, CW Lending II Limited ('the
Borrower') under a loan agreement ('the Intercompany Loan Agreement').  The
notes are secured on a pool of properties at Canary Wharf, owned by fellow
subsidiary undertakings, and the rental income therefrom.

 

Going Concern

 

Having made the requisite enquiries and assessed the resources at the disposal
of the company, the directors have a reasonable expectation that the company
will have adequate resources to continue its operation for the foreseeable
future.  Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in
preparing the financial statements.

 

Results for the period

 

As shown in the company's Income Statement, the company's loss after tax for
the 6 month period was £4,959,754 (period ended 30 June 2022 - loss of
£4,948,001).

 

This loss included hedge reserve recycling recognised in the Income Statement
of £5,024,076 (period ended 30 June 2022 - £5,005,643).  Including the
hedge reserve recycling impact in other comprehensive income the profit for
the period was £64,322 (period ended 30 June 2022 - £57,642).

 

The balance sheet shows the company's financial position at the period end and
indicates that net assets were £5,710,828 (31 December 2022 - £5,646,506).

 

The weighted average maturity of the company's securitised debt is 9.67 years
(31 December 2022 - 10.1 years).  The weighted average interest rate of the
securitised debt is 6.04% (31 December 2022 - 6.1%).

 

In the opinion of the Board, these Financial Statements enable shareholders to
make an informed assessment of the results and activities of the company for
the period ended 30 June 2023.

 

PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

 

The risks and uncertainties facing the business are monitored through
continuous assessment, regular formal reviews and discussion at the Canary
Wharf Group Investment Holdings plc audit committee and board.  Such
discussion focuses on the risks identified as part of the system of internal
control which highlights key risks faced by the Group and allocates specific
day to day monitoring and control responsibilities as appropriate.  As a
member of Canary Wharf Group, the current key risks of the company include:
the current geopolitical climate and its potential impact on the economy, the
cyclical nature of the property market, concentration risk, financing risk,
climate risk and policy and planning risks.

 

Geopolitical climate

 

The geopolitical backdrop has been exceptionally turbulent in the UK and
internationally over the past few years.  We have also seen a marked increase
in Industrial Action, in part due to falling real wages, resulting in numerous
days of tube and train strikes impacting the Estate.

 

Russia's invasion of Ukraine is still ongoing and has driven longer term
security, economic, and energy policy shifts within Europe, with implications
for UK businesses and consumers.  The Group has no contractual relationships
with any entity or individuals based in Russia, Belarus or Ukraine.  However,
the impact of a war in Europe and sanctions targeted at Russia and certain
individuals may impact on the UK and world economy, particularly on energy
prices.  The long term impacts of these issues remain difficult to predict.

 

Cyclical nature of the property market

 

The valuation of the Group's assets are subject to many other external
economic and market factors.  In recent years, the London real estate market
has had to cope with fluctuations in demand caused by key events such as
uncertainty in the Eurozone, implications of the UK's withdrawal from the EU,
the Russian invasion of Ukraine and sanctions imposed on Russia as a
consequence.  During the year, the rapid rise in interest rates has brought
significant turmoil to the debt and capital markets with consequential impact
on investor confidence whilst the longer term impact of Covid-19 on flexible
working has led to occupiers reviewing their requirements for office space.
 These factors have had adverse implications for the property market and
particularly negative market sentiment towards office assets which has
impacted valuations at the period end.

 

The real estate market has to date, however, been assisted by the depreciation
of sterling since the UK's exit from the EU and the continuing presence of
overseas investors attracted by the relative transparency of the real estate
market in London which is still viewed as both relatively stable and secure.

 

Concentration Risk

 

The Group's real estate assets are currently located on or adjacent to the
Estate.  Although a majority of tenants have traditionally been linked to the
financial services industry, this proportion has now fallen to around only
54.0% of tenants.  Wherever possible steps are still taken to mitigate or
avoid material consequences arising from this concentration.

 

Although the focus of the Group has been on and around the Estate, where value
can be added the Group will also consider opportunities elsewhere.  The Group
is involved as construction manager and joint development manager in the joint
venture with Qatari Diar to redevelop the Shell Centre in London's South Bank.
 The Group has also reviewed current consents for development to react to
changes in the market.  This review has led to an increased focus on the
residential build to rent sector as reflected in the composition of the master
plan for the mixed use development at Wood Wharf.

 

Financing risk

 

The broader economic cycle inevitably leads to movements in inflation,
interest rates and bond yields.  The company has borrowing at floating and
fixed rates of interest.  Where required the company uses derivative
financial instruments to manage exposure to interest rate fluctuations.

 

The company has issued debenture finance in sterling at both fixed and
floating rates and uses interest rate swaps to modify its exposure to interest
rate fluctuations.  All of the company's borrowings are fixed after taking
account of interest rate hedges.  All borrowings are denominated in sterling
and the company has no intention to borrow amounts in currencies other than
sterling.

 

The company enters into derivative financial instruments solely for the
purposes of hedging its financial liabilities.  No derivatives are entered
into for speculative purposes.

 

The company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

 

The company's securitisation is subject to a maximum loan minus cash to value
('LMCTV') ratio covenant.

 

The maximum LMCTV ratio is 100.0%.  Based on the 30 June 2023 valuations of
the properties upon which the company's notes are secured, the LMCTV ratio at
the interest payment date in July 2023 was 45.2%.  The securitisation is not
subject to a minimum interest coverage ratio.  A breach of certain financial
covenants can be remedied by depositing eligible investments (including cash).

 

Climate risk

 

The Group considers sustainability to be at the forefront of our business, and
as an organisation we have a vision to transform urban spaces into
extraordinary environments.  In 2020, the Group published its Net Zero Carbon
Pathway, a roadmap for reaching net zero carbon by 2030.  The Group also
published ambitious Science Based Targets (SBTs) ratified by the Science Based
Targets Initiative (SBTi).

 

Failure to meet these commitments could result in reputational damage for the
Group and subsequent damage to our relationship with customers, suppliers and
other stakeholders.  Similarly, inaccurate claims around sustainable
practices could result in the Group being subject to fines under the Green
code leading to both financial and reputational harm.

 

Being an integrated developer, contractor and property manager, we are in a
unique position to embed sustainable principles right from the initial design
of our buildings.  However, there are increasing legal and regulatory
requirements for building performance for which the Group is required to
remain compliant.  Failing to meet these requirements could lead to
significant reputational damage and adversely impact asset values.

 

Whilst we are aware of these risks, we do not consider the Group to be at
considerable risk of non compliance.  We are actively engaging with many
industry groups including the UK Green Building Council (UKGBC), the Better
Building Partnership (BBP) and Concrete Zero to ensure we remain up to date
with all regulations.  We also actively monitor the operational performance
of our buildings, and retrofit older buildings where possible, to ensure
compliance.  Our dedicated sustainability team produce an annual
sustainability report to drive sustainable initiatives and communicate
performance to our stakeholders.  We obtain external assurance over this
report to provide confidence to our stakeholders.  The Group actively engages
in sustainable practices and is working in partnership with the Eden Project
to transform the Canary Wharf Estate into a biodiverse environment.

 

Policy and planning risks

 

All of the Group's assets are currently located within London.  Appropriate
contact is maintained with local and national Government, but changes in
Governmental policy on planning, tax or other regulations could limit the
ability of the Group to maximise the long term potential of its assets.
 These risks are closely monitored.

 

The principal risks facing the Group are discussed in the Annual Report of
Canary Wharf Investment Holdings plc, which does not form part of this report.

auditor's report on those accounts was not qualified, did not contain any
reference to any matters which the auditor drew attention by way of emphasis
without qualifying the report and did not contain statements under Section
498(2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006.

The loans to a fellow subsidiary undertaking bear fixed rates of interest
between 5.41% and 7.07% and are repayable in instalments between 2005 and
2037.

 

Other amounts owed by Group companies are non-interest bearing and repayable
on demand.

 

The A7, B3 C2 and D2 tranches of the intercompany loan are carried at fair
value.  The A1, A3 and B tranches are carried at amortised cost (see Note 7).
 The total fair value of the loans to fellow subsidiary undertakings at 30
June 2023 was £1,224,656,709 (31 December 2022 - £1,325,641,286), calculated
by reference to the fair values of the company's financial liabilities.  In
the event that the company were to realise the fair value of the securitised
debt and the derivative financial instruments, it would have the right to
recoup its losses as a repayment premium on its loans to CW Lending II
Limited.  As such, the fair value of the loans to Group undertakings is
calculated to be the sum of the fair value of the securitised debt and the
fair value of the derivative financial instruments.  The carrying value of
financial assets represents the company's maximum exposure to credit risk.

The class A1, A3 and B notes were issued at a premium which is being amortised
to the income statement on a straight line basis over the life of the relevant
notes.  At 30 June 2023, £9,893,264 (31 December 2022 - £10,645,771)
remained unamortised.

 

The notes are secured on 6 properties at Canary Wharf, owned by fellow
subsidiary undertakings, and the rental income stream therefrom.  The 6
properties are 1 Canada Square, 33 Canada Square, 20 Bank Street, 40 Bank
Street, 10 Cabot Square/5 North Colonnade and 20 Cabot Square/10 South
Colonnade.

 

The company uses interest rate swaps to hedge exposure to the variability in
cash flows on floating rate debt caused by movements in market rates of
interest.  The hedged rates of the floating notes, including the margins, are
between 5.40% and 7.06%.

 

The floating rate notes are carried at fair value through profit or loss.
