PORTFOLIO COMMENTARY Southway Mall in Durban and 2 Long Street in Cape Town were acquired with effect from 1 January 2003. The purchase consideration was settled through the issue of an additional 37 777 778 Capital units. The redevelopment of Southway Mall, which is substantially pre-let, at a total capital cost of R14 million is due for completion by year-end. Consideration is being given to the refurbishment of 2 Long Street including the creation of additional parking. Maybaker House was transferred on the 20 May 2003 for R1 500 000. In pursuance of the strategy of selling under-performing properties, sale agreements are being negotiated on another nine properties, with transfer of eight expected in 2003. Vacancies are 10% as at 30 June 2003, compared with 14% as at 30 June 2002 and 11% as at 31 December 2002. Various options to grow the portfolio significantly are being considered. ACCOUNTING POLICIES The results have been prepared in accordance with South African Statements of Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. The accounting policies are consistent with those applied for the year ended 30 June 2002 with the exception of the provision for long-term maintenance, which is now treated as a reserve. The results for the six months ended 30 June 2002 have been restated to comply with South African Statements of Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
