1. Reason for Acquisition and Transfer
HHR has been examining asset replacement for improving the quality of its portfolio and sustainable growth of distribution. As a result, it has been decided that a strategic asset replacement (hereafter the "Replacement"), in which an urban retail facility (H-CUBE MINAMIAOYAMA) in central Tokyo owned by Hankyu Hanshin Holdings Group (hereafter "the Sponsor Group") is acquired and "Sphere Tower Tennozu" owned by HHR is transferred, will be conducted.
"H-CUBE MINAMIAOYAMA" is a development project of the Sponsor Group following "nanohana Ebisubashi (site)" and "MANDAI Shimoshinjo Store" acquired in March 2020, and is an urban retail facility located in the Omotesando and Minami-Aoyama area, where domestic and foreign fashion brand stores are concentrated. The property is located on a corner facing a street with high convenience, which is in a 2- minute walk from Omotesando Station on the Tokyo Metro, and the medium-to-long-term needs for opening stores can be expected due to the highly competitive location in the area, now and after the COVID-19 epidemic is settled. As such, HHR determined that the acquisition of the property will contribute to increasing unitholder value.
"Sphere Tower Tennozu" is located in the Tennozu area and is an office building directly connected to the nearest station and maintains a high occupancy rate. On the other hand, we have been considering replacement in line with our medium-term policy, as unrealized losses are arising and repair costs are expected to increase in the future due to the aging of the building. We have recently been proposed
acquisition for a whole building from the transferee, and we have decided to sell it jointly with a quasi-co-owner (Note 1).
After the Replacement, in addition to improving the average yield after depreciation of the entire portfolio, the improvement of quality of the portfolio, such as an increase in unrealized gains and shorter average age of buildings (Note 2).
(Note 1) For specific figures on gains on transfer, please refer to "4. Details of assets to be acquired and transferred
(2) Details of assets to be transferred."
(Note 2) For specific figures of average yield after depreciation and unrealized gains and losses, please refer to "Status of Portfolio" below.
HHR evaluated the following points when deciding on the acquisition of "H-CUBE MINAMIAOYAMA". The property is an urban retail facility located a 2-minute walk from Omotesando Station, which is
connected to the Tokyo Metro (Ginza Line, Chiyoda Line, Hanzomon Line).
The Minami-Aoyama area, where the property is located, is the area with the highest fashion and lifestyle sensitivity, and is one of Japan's leading areas with high needs for roadside stores of designer brands and high fashion. The property is located on a corner facing a particularly accessible street connecting Miyuki- dori Street and Kotto-dori Street. The building has 1 basement floor and 2 stories above ground. It is divided into 2 sections, north and south, and both sections have good visibility from the street. As it is located in an area of concentrated roadside stores in Minami-Aoyama and stands on the movement line of abundant traffic, the potential of the property as a roadside store is high. Moreover, the property has characteristics that match the expectations of brands that desire to open a store in the area. Thus, we judged that high rental demand can be expected.
The property currently houses cosmetics brand ORBIS and fashion brand Brooks Brothers.
