CREDIT RATING NOTIFICATION
Shareholders and noteholders are advised that GCR Ratings ("GCR") has upgraded Hyprop’s long term and short
term national scale issuer ratings to AA-(ZA) and A1+ (ZA), respectively, with a stable outlook. GCR also
affirmed the long term and short term international scale issuer ratings at BB- and B respectively, with a stable
outlook.
GCR note in their rating notification:
- The rating upgrade and stable outlook reflect Hyprop’s notable improvements in its capital structure and
gearing metrics over the past 24 months;
- Hyprop’s robust liquidity position, with ZAR1.7 billion in cash at 30 June 2026 and ZAR2.1 billion in
unutilised committed facilities;
- The strong performance of the SA and EE property portfolios, increase in property valuations and further
international diversification following the Galleria Burgas acquisition; and
- The stable outlook reflects GCR’s expectation that Hyprop’s operational performance will remain strong,
the LTV will remain around 30% and that interest coverage will be above 3.0 times.
