* Debenture interest is calculated on the capital at a variable rate equal to 99.9% of the net profit of the company before
taxation, but after adjusting for extraordinary income and expenditure, capital gains and losses, and capital expenditure.
** Headline earnings have been presented in accordance with IAS 33. The linked unit structure of the group whereby every shareholder
is a debenture holder, coupled with the terms of the Debenture Trust Deed which states that 99.9% of profits are attributable to
debenture holders, results in the benefits of improved trading which would be ordinarily attributable to shareholders being expensed
in the income statement as a fair value adjustment to debentures and debenture interest. This results in no profit being attributable
to ordinary shareholders.
*** Linked unit debentures are included in the net asset value and net tangible asset value calculation.

Basis of preparation and accounting policies
The accounting policies applied in the preparation of these condensed consolidated results for the six months ended 31 December 2012,
are in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") and are consistent with those applied in the annual financial
statements for the year ended 30 June 2012, except for the adoption of new and amendments to IFRS and IFRIC interpretations, these did
not impact on the financial position or performance of the group but have resulted in additional disclosures. These condensed consolidated
results as set out in this report have been prepared in accordance and containing the information required by IAS 34 Interim Financial
Reporting, the SAICA Financial Reporting Guides as issued by the Accounting Practices Committee and Financial Reporting Pronouncements
as issued by Financial Reporting Standards Council, the Companies Act of South Africa 71 of 2008, and the Listings Requirements of JSE Limited.
These condensed consolidated results for the six months ended 31 December 2012 have been prepared in accordance with the historic cost
basis, except for the measurement of investment properties, debentures and certain financial assets and financial liabilities which are
stated at fair value.
The financial results are presented in Rands, which is Fairvest's functional and presentation currency and have been prepared on a going
concern basis.
The condensed consolidated financial results have not been reviewed by the company's auditors, BDO South Africa Inc.
Restatement of comparatives
During the previous reporting period, the group early adopted the amended IAS 12 Income Taxes. This amendment is effective for annual
periods beginning on or after 1 January 2012. IAS 12 has been updated to include a rebuttable presumption that deferred tax on
investment property measured using the fair value model in IAS 40 should be determined on the basis that its carrying amount will
be recovered through sale. This resulted in a change to the rate of deferred taxation from 28% to the capital gains tax inclusion rate.
The effect of the changes are summarised as follows:
31 December
2011
R'000
Condensed consolidated statement of financial position

Estimates and critical judgements
Except for the measurement of investment properties, debentures and certain financial assets and financial liabilities the
financial statements do not include any material estimates.
The investment in related shareblock company, which constitutes the commercial portion of a mixed used building is classified
as investment property and measured at fair value.
COMMENTARY
Introduction
Fairvest's objective is to build a retail focused property fund weighted toward non-metropolitan shopping centres and
including convenience, community and regional shopping centres servicing the lower LSM market in high-growth nodes close to
commuter networks.
Acquisitions and associated capital raising activities
Linked unitholders are referred to the company's circular, including revised listings particulars ("RLP"), issued on
5 October 2012 regarding the SA Corporate Real Estate Acquisition, the Put Option Acquisition and the Isolenu Acquisition.
Under the vendor consideration placement undertaken to part fund these acquisitions, the company limited the capital raised
to R250 million, raised through the issue of 203,252,033 new ordinary linked units at R1.23 per ordinary linked unit.
For the purposes of the forecasts set out in the RLP it had been assumed that the company would raise R300 million through
the issue of a combination of A linked units and ordinary linked units.
As a result of the company's capital structure differing from that assumed in the forecast set out in RLP, the projected
distribution for the 6 months ended 30 June 2013 is 5.99 cents per linked unit. All other key assumptions underlying the
forecast set out in the RLP remain unchanged.
The new linked units issued under the vendor consideration placement were issued and listed on the JSE on 3 December 2012.

Initial portfolio
As at 31 December 2012 Fairvest has taken transfer of 6 of the 15 properties in the initial portfolio and at the
date of this report all but two smaller assets have transferred. Transfers of these assets are expected to register
by early April 2013. SA Corporate Real Estate exercised their option on one of the Put Option Properties and has until
31 March 2013 to exercise their option on the other.
Subsequent acquisitions
On 28 January 2013, Fairvest concluded an agreement for the acquisition of Nyanga Junction with Momentum Property
Investments Proprietary Limited. This acquisition is subject to the Passenger Rail Agency of South Africa consenting
to the assignment of the Notarial Lease. We are still awaiting the consent and expect the cession of the lease to be
no earlier than 1 July 2013.
On 6 February 2013, Fairvest concluded an agreement for the acquisition of Matsulu Centre with Huwani Projects
Proprietary Limited. After completion of the due diligence investigation, Fairvest has decided not to proceed with
this acquisition.
On 6 March 2013, Fairvest concluded an agreement for the acquisition of a 50% undivided share in Sebokeng Plaza from
Fortress Income 3 Proprietary Limited. This acquisition remains subject to the fulfilment of certain conditions
precedent and the expected date of transfer of the asset is on or about 1 June 2013.
Review of results
Fairvest board of directors are pleased to announce a distribution of 0.86 cents per linked unit for the one month
ended 31 December 2012 and further to the distribution of 3.71 cents declared for the 5 months to 30 November 2012.
The distribution for the one month ended 31 December 2012 is less than expected as a result of the delays in transfer
of the SA Corporate Real Estate Portfolio and the Isolenu Property Portfolio, also discussed above. However, favourable
renewals and conservative estimates in our initial forecasting assisted the company in reaching the 0.86 cent distribution.
Fairvest completed the development of the 3,336 m2 Chep Office in Westville during the period under review and the
project was completed on time and on budget. The 10 year lease commenced on 1 December 2012 and the asset was valued
at R58.3 million. The redevelopment of the Blue Heights Shopping Centre is also underway, with the centre estimated
to reopen by the end of April 2013. The centre is 94% pre let, with 80% to national tenants.
The total property portfolio increased from R131.3 million in June 2012 to R397.8 million in December 2012 as a
result of the 6 new assets acquired. Another R158.6 million assets transferred up to the date of this report, which
were externally valued at R185.8 million.
Fairvest sold the remainder of the Australian and South African listed property shares during the period under review
resulting in a realised gain of R0.98 million. The funds were utilised in the redevelopment currently under way.
Prospects
The forecast distribution for 6 months to 30 June 2013 of 5.99 cents per linked unit remains achievable, with the
potential of outperformance as a result of the yield enhancing acquisitions. These forecasts are the responsibility
of the board of Fairvest and have not been reviewed or reported on by the auditors.
We will continue to focus on growing the portfolio through strategic value-enhancing acquisitions, coupled with a
focus on improving the quality of the portfolio through the acquisition of larger centres that dominate in the area
in which they are located.
Looking forward, growth in distributions will be delivered through the implementation of strong operational controls,
tenant optimisation, rental escalations and the reduction of vacancies.
Interest distributions and dividends
Interest on debentures has been calculated in terms of the Debenture Trust Deed. An interim interest distribution
of 0.86 cents per linked unit is payable to linked unitholders registered in the linked unit register of the company
at the close of business on Friday, 26 April 2013. No dividend has been declared for the period in respect of the
linked units.
Last date to trade linked units cum interest payment Friday, 19 April 2013
Linked units commence trading ex interest payment Monday, 22 April 2013
Record date Friday, 26 April 2013
Payment date Monday, 29 April 2013
Linked units may not be dematerialised or rematerialised between Monday, 22 April 2013 and Friday, 26 April 2013,
both days inclusive.
