DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES STATEMENT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
The directors are responsible for preparing the Directors' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period.
In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:
∙select suitable accounting policies for the company's financial statements and then apply them consistently;
∙make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
∙prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CWG (WOOD WHARF TWO) LIMITED
REPORT ON THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Opinion
In our opinion the financial statements of CWG (Wood Wharf Two) Limited (the ‘company’):
∙give a true and fair view of the state of the company’s affairs as at 31 December 2025 and of its result for the year then ended;
∙have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland”; and
∙have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
We have audited the financial statements which comprise:
∙the statement of comprehensive income;
∙the statement of financial position;
∙the statement of changes in equity; and
∙the related notes 1 to 20.
The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report.
We are independent of the company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the Financial Reporting Council’s (the ‘FRC’s’) Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information
The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of directors
As explained more fully in the directors’ responsibilities statement, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the FRC’s website at: http://www.frc.org.uk /auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
Extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below.
We considered the nature of the company’s industry and its control environment, and reviewed the company’s documentation of their policies and procedures relating to fraud and compliance with laws and regulations. We also enquired of management and directors about their own identification and assessment of the risks of irregularities, including those that are specific to the company’s business sector.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF CWG (WOOD WHARF TWO) LIMITED
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that the company operates in, and identified the key laws and regulations that:
∙had a direct effect on the determination of material amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. These included UK Companies Act, and relevant tax legislation; and
∙do not have a direct effect on the financial statements but compliance with which may be fundamental to the company’s ability to operate or to avoid a material penalty.
We discussed among the audit engagement team regarding the opportunities and incentives that may exist within the organisation for fraud and how and where fraud might occur in the financial statements.
As a result of performing the above, we identified the greatest potential for fraud in the following area, and our procedures performed to address it are described below:
Investment Property Portfolio: We have identified a fraud risk in the valuation of investment property, pinpointed specifically to the risk of management manipulation of the information provided to the valuers including lease length and rental values, which the valuers rely on during their valuation process. Our audit procedures included obtaining an understanding of the relevant controls in the investment properties' valuation and validating the tenancy data sent to the valuers for completeness and accuracy by agreeing a sample of data through to underlying lease agreements.
In common with all audits under ISAs (UK), we are also required to perform specific procedures to respond to the risk of management override. In addressing the risk of fraud through management override of controls, we tested the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments; assessed whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of a potential bias; and evaluated the business rationale of any significant transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business.
In addition to the above, our procedures to respond to the risks identified included the following:
∙reviewing financial statement disclosures by testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with provisions of relevant laws and regulations described as having a direct effect on the financial statements;
∙performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud;
∙enquiring of management and in-house legal counsel concerning actual and potential litigation and claims, and instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations; and
∙reading minutes of meetings of those charged with governance.
Report on other legal and regulatory requirements
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
∙the information given in the directors’ report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
∙the directors’ report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified any material misstatements in the directors’ report.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception
Under the Companies Act 2006 we are required to report in respect of the following matters if, in our opinion:
∙adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
∙the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
∙certain disclosures of directors’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or
∙we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or
∙the directors were not entitled to take advantage of the small companies’ exemption in preparing the directors report and from the requirement to prepare a strategic report.
We have nothing to report in respect of these matters.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the company’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
CWG (Wood Wharf Two) Limited is a private company limited by shares incorporated in the UK under the Companies Act 2006 and registered in England and Wales at One Canada Square, Canary Wharf, London, E14 5AB.
The nature of the company's operations and its principal activities are set out in the Directors' Report.
2.ACCOUNTING POLICIES
|
|
|
Basis of preparation of financial statements
|
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at fair value and in accordance with United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, including FRS 102 “the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland”).
At the date of authorisation of these financial statements, the Financial Reporting Council (FRC) had issued amendments to FRS 102 that are not yet effective for the Company. The only amendment becoming effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2025 relates to supplier finance arrangements, and the Company has assessed this amendment and concluded that it does not have a material impact on the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025.
All other FRC amendments are effective for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2026 and have therefore not been applied in these financial statements.
The preparation of financial statements in compliance with FRS 102 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgement in applying the company’s accounting policies (see Note 3).
The functional currency of the company is considered to be pounds sterling because that is the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates.
The principal accounting policies have been applied consistently throughout the year and the preceding year and are summarised below:
|
|
|
Financial Reporting Standard 102 - reduced disclosure exemptions
|
The company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemptions in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by the FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland":
∙the requirements of Section 7 Statement of Cash Flows;
∙the requirements of Section 3 Financial Statement Presentation paragraph 3.17(d);
∙the requirements of Section 11 Financial Instruments paragraphs 11.42, 11.44 to 11.45, 11.47, 11.48(a)(iii), 11.48(a)(iv), 11.48(b) and 11.48(c);
∙the requirements of Section 12 Other Financial Instruments paragraphs 12.26 to 12.27, 12.29(a), 12.29(b) and 12.29A; and
∙the requirements of Section 33 Related Party Disclosures paragraph 33.7.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
2.ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
In assessing the going concern basis of the company the directors have considered a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements.
At the year end, the company was in a net asset position and had net current liabilities.
Included within liabilities were intercompany creditors of £176,143,652 which to the extent that the company cannot pay, will not be called in for at least a period of 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements, as confirmed by the ultimate parent company, Stork Holdco LP.
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, being a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements.
In addition, the company’s ultimate shareholders Brookfield Property Partners LP and Qatar Investment Authority have confirmed that they have the intent and ability to provide such financial support to the Stork Holdco LP Group and its wholly owned subsidiaries to meet their liabilities if required for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Accordingly, the directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
Rental income from operating leases is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives granted, including rent free periods, are recognised as an integral part of the net consideration for the use of the property and are therefore also recognised on the same straight line basis. Direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging new leases are also amortised on the same straight line basis. Contingent rents, being those lease payments that are not fixed at the inception of a lease, for example turnover rents, are recorded in the periods in which they are earned.
Revenue from property sales is recognised, net of VAT, on completion, when the significant risks and returns pass to the acquirer.
Investment properties, including land and buildings held for development and investment properties under construction, are measured initially at cost including related transaction costs. The finance costs associated with direct expenditure on properties under construction or undergoing refurbishment are capitalised.
Where a property interest is acquired under a lease, the investment property and the associated lease liability are initially recognised at the lower of the fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments including any initial premium. Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charge and a reduction in the outstanding obligation for the future amounts payable. The total finance charge is allocated to accounting periods over the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic charge to the remaining balance of the obligation for each accounting period.
Investment properties are subsequently revalued, at each reporting date, to an amount comprising the fair value of the property interest plus the carrying value of the associated lease liability less separately identified accrued rent, amortised lease incentives and negotiation costs. The gain or loss on remeasurement is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025
2.ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Tangible fixed assets, other than investment properties, are stated at cost less depreciation and impairment. Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost in equal annual instalments over the expected useful economic lives of the assets concerned. The principal annual rates used for this purpose are:
Leasehold improvements: the shorter of the lease term or 4 years
Plant and machinery: over 4 years
Fixtures and fittings: over 4 years
Computer equipment: over 3 years
Trade and other receivables
Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and are reduced for any lifetime expected credit loss associated with the receivables.
A provision for impairment is established where there is objective evidence that the company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the debtor concerned.
Trade and other payables
Trade and other creditors are stated at cost.
Borrowings
Standard loans payable are recognised initially at transaction price including transaction costs, unless the total cost does not represent the value of a financing transaction on an arm’s length basis. In this case the present value of future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument is used in place of proceeds and the difference between the two amounts is accounted for as a capital contribution.
Subsequent to initial recognition, loans payable are stated at amortised cost with any difference between the amount initially recognised and the redemption value being recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income over the period of the loan, using the effective interest method.
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash flows (including all fees that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the financial liability.
Where loans are subject to contractual terms and arrangements that are non-standard they are carried at fair value. The fair value is assessed as the present value of most likely cash flows, subject to the limitations of the underlying terms. Any movements are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
Current tax is provided at amounts expected to be paid or recovered using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY
|
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of the amount, event or actions, actual results ultimately may differ from those estimates.
The preparation of financial statements also requires use of judgements, apart from those involving estimation, that management makes in the process of applying the entity’s accounting policies.
Valuation of investment properties
The company uses valuations performed by independent valuers as the fair value of its investment property. The valuations are based upon assumptions including future rental income, anticipated void costs, and the appropriate discount rate or yield. The valuers also make reference to market evidence of transaction prices for similar properties (see Note 11).
Valuation of intercompany debt
The carrying value of non-standard loans are subject to fair value adjustments in the form of loan caps to ensure the value represents the most likely contractual cash flows of the underlying instrument. Estimates and judgements are made in calculating the quantum of the cap as the future cash flows are subject to fluctuations depending on the net assets of the company. These assessments are reviewed and amended annually.
For the year ended 31 December 2025, the financial statements of the company did not contain any other significant items that required the application of judgements, apart from those involving estimation.

At 31 December 2025, the property was valued externally by CBRE Limited, qualified valuers with recent experience in office properties at Canary Wharf. The fair value was determined in accordance with the Appraisal and Valuation Manual published by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors, using:
· Discounted cash flows based on inputs provided by the company (current rents, terms and conditions of lease agreements, costs to completion) and assumptions and valuation models adopted by the valuers (estimated rental values, terminal values and discount rates).
· Yield methodology based on inputs provided by the company (current rents) and assumptions and valuation models adopted by the valuers (estimated rental values and market capitalisation rates).
The resulting valuations are cross checked against the initial yields and the fair market values per square foot derived from actual market transactions.
No allowance was made for any expenses of realisation nor for any taxation which might arise in the event of disposal.
The fair value has been allocated to the following balance sheet items:

The company holds a 250 year lease of the development site at Wood Wharf and pays annual ground rent of £6.0m to Canal & River Trust. The rent is subject to upwards only reviews linked to the passing rent achieved on the office buildings and the ground rents paid by purchasers of the residential apartments to be built on the site. The Net Present Value of the minimum contracted ground rents payable under the terms of the 250 year lease, discounted at the rate inherent in the lease, was estimated at £55.0m at the date of inception of the lease. During 2015, the terms of the ground rent arrangements were amended. As a result, an additional £3.0m was paid in 2015 with further payments of £1.7m in 2016, 2017 and 2018. The changes to the ground rent arrangements increased the carrying value of the obligation by £7.2m.
In 2018 the lease was varied to allow for a new bridge with ground rent increasing by £50,000 per year to a minimum of £6.05m. These changes increase the obligation by £536,948.
The interest rate implicit in the leases is 10.17%.
