GRP01-7-2142\0.3 24 September 2020 Dear Securityholder, Goodman Group – Stakeholder Review and 2020 Annual Report It’s been an extraordinary year with the global pandemic having a profound impact on the world. The events in the last year have resulted in a fundamental shift in how we live, work and consume. This includes an acceleration of e-commerce, a shift to remote working and a significant increase in demand for technology and big data. The location and quality of our assets means that Goodman is well positioned to leverage the opportunities in this new operating environment. The Stakeholder Review provides a comprehensive overview of Goodman’s global business for our Securityholders, Partners and customers. Our theme this year is a reflection on our past and a look to the decade ahead. Since listing on the Australian Securities Exchange 25 years ago, the Group has grown into a truly global company with approximately 70% of earnings from international markets. We have remained focused on executing our strategy – to own high-quality properties in locations where our customers can be close to consumers. In looking ahead, our focus is on a sustainable business for our customers and investors for the long term. We outline how our 2030 Sustainability Strategy will deliver sustained growth and develop ongoing resilience. The Annual Report includes the consolidated financial reports for Goodman Limited (being for the entire consolidated Goodman Group), Goodman Industrial Trust and Goodman Logistics (HK) Limited.
