BASIS OF PREPARATION AND REVIEW OPINION
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements are prepared and presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, which include
International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 Interim Financial Reporting, the SAICA Financial Reporting Guides as issued by the Accounting Practices Committee and the
requirements of the Companies Act of South Africa. The same accounting policies and methods of computation are followed in the interim financial report as compared to
the most recent annual financial statements except for the adoption of the newly effective standards as described below. The key estimates and assumptions used in the
interim financial statements are the same as the ones used in the annual financial statements. The condensed consolidated results have been prepared under the
supervision of the group's financial director, Baden Marlow.
The following standards are being applied for the first time as they became effective during the current period:
IFRS 10 - Consolidated Financial Statements
IFRS 11 - Joint Arrangements
IAS 28 (2011) - Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures
IFRS 12 - Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities
IFRS 13 - Fair value measurement
The condensed consolidated financial statements of Acucap Properties Ltd for the six months ended 30 September 2013 have been reviewed by the company's auditor,
KPMG Inc. In their review report dated 14 November 2013, which is available for inspection at the Company's Registered Office, KPMG Inc state that their review was
conducted in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, Review of Interim Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity,
and have expressed an unmodified conclusion on the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS RECOGNISED IN THE STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION
The group measures fair values using the following hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements:
- Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in an active market for an identical instrument.
- Level 2: Valuation techniques based on observable inputs, either directly (ie. as prices) or indirectly (ie. derived from prices). This category includes instruments valued
using: quoted market prices in active markets for similar instruments; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are considered less than active;
or other valuation techniques where all significant inputs are directly or indirectly observable from market data.
- Level 3: Valuation techniques using significant unobservable inputs. This category includes all instruments where the valuation technique includes inputs not based on
observable data and the unobservable inputs have a significant effect on the instrument's valuation. This category also includes instruments that are valued based on
quoted prices for similar instruments where significant unobservable adjustments or assumptions are required to reflect differences between the instruments.
The group uses widely recognised valuation models for determining the fair value of common and more simple financial instruments, like the interest rate swaps that
use only observable market data and require little management judgement and estimation. The availability of observable market prices and model inputs reduces the
need for management judgement and estimation and also reduces the uncertainty associated with determination of fair values.The interest rate swaps are valued using
the Mark to Market valuations, excluding transactions costs, as determined by Nedbank. In the previous financial period the units held by Acucap in Sycom Property
Fund were accounted for as an investment as Acucap did not have significant influence until the current period. The investment was valued at 30 September 2012 using
the closing price of Sycom's traded units. During the current period, the investment in Sycom has been accounted for as an interest in an associate and therefore is
excluded from the fair value hierarchy as below.

COMMENTARY
1. REVIEW OF RESULTS AND OPERATIONS
Acucap's board is pleased to report a distribution of 159.89 cents per unit for the six months ended 30 September 2013, 5.9% higher than the same six month
period last year and in line with guidance provided in respect of the full year to 31 March 2014.
Retail portfolio
Tenants in Acucap's core retail portfolio reported a 3.5% increase in their turnovers for the 6 months to 30 September 2013 compared to the same period in the
previous year, in line with the general trend in South African retail sales growth.
Retail leases for 34,853m(2) were renewed or expired during the six month period under review at an average terminating rate of R131.16/m(2). Leases were signed
over 39,009m(2) at an average rate of R136.08/m(2). The retention rate by income was 60% and these leases were renewed at rentals on average 14.3% higher than
expiring rentals.
Leases for 26,646m(2) will expire before the end of the 2014 financial year, at average rentals of R162.74/m(2), and are expected to be renewed at an average of
R172.50/m(2). Vacancy rates remained low across Acucap's retail portfolio, decreasing from 1.8% at 31 March 2013 to 1.2% of retail Gross Lettable Area (GLA) at
the end of September.
Office portfolio
The office market remained under pressure in the period under review, with vacancies increasing from 2% at 31 March 2013 to 4.8% at the end of September
2013. Leases for 17,551 m(2) expired or were renewed early with average terminating net rentals of R144.85/m(2). Leases were signed for 14,525 m(2) of GLA at an
average net rental of R122.76/m(2). The retention rate by income was 62% and these leases were renewed at rentals on average 5.4% lower than their expiring
rentals. The planned vacancy of 2,300m(2) with the upgrading of 28 Fricker Road should reverse in 2014. Negotiations are in an advanced stage over 1,448m(2) of this
space.
Additional leases for only 5,808m(2) are due to expire in the remainder of the 2014 financial year at an average rental of R132.09/m(2), and most are expected
to be renewed, at an average rental of R128.69, a negative reversion of 2.6%
Debtors
Debtors have been well managed, resulting in lower bad debt write-offs and impairment provisions during the six months under review compared to the prior
reporting period. Net bad debts written off across the portfolio amounted to R596 652 and there were impairment provisions of R343 129, resulting in a total
charge of R939 781 to the income statement compared to the net charge of R2.989m for the full year to 31 March 2013.
2. PORTFOLIO INVESTMENT ACTIVITY
Greenacres acquisition
On 21 October 2013 Acucap announced the acquisition of a 50% undivided share in Greenacres Shopping Centre for R508m at an initial yield of 7.7%.
The other 50% of Greenacres was acquired by Sycom. With a Gross Lettable Area (GLA) of 40,767m(2), Greenacres is one of three retail properties that
together comprise a single combined shopping mall of 89,529m(2)GLA, the other two properties being The Bridge @ Greenacres (44,062m(2)GLA) in which
Acucap owns 27.5% and a stand-alone Woolworths store that is owned by Woolworths (4,700m(2)GLA).
Good trading density, supported by over one million shoppers per month, has resulted in strong interest from all the major fashion retailers at
Greenacres to either expand their stores or introduce new brands. Plans will also be developed to upgrade the mall and offer a contemporary, easier
and more pleasant shopping experience and the intention is to implement these plans as soon as possible after transfer of the property.
Acucap intends to fund the acquisition by a vendor placement of linked units.
Helderberg Hyper
The centre is scheduled to open for trade on 24 April 2014. The total estimated capital cost is R210m with a first year yield of 8.6%. The centre is 80% pre-let and
comprises 24,000m(2) of GLA anchored by Checkers Hyper, House and Home and Stor-age.
WaterCrest Mall
The successful relocation and opening of a new Super Spar was completed at end October 2013. The remainder of the 43,500m(2) regional shopping centre is
under construction and scheduled to open on 23 April 2015. The long awaited dual lane upgrade of Inanda Road supporting the development is under
construction and will be complete before the shopping centre opens for trade. The total estimated capital cost is R670m with an expected first year yield of 8.3%.
Acucap holds a 50% share in the shopping centre with the Rowles Group which holds the remaining 50%. The centre is anchored by Spar, Woolworths, Checkers,
Game, Ster Kinekor and Edgars and is 75% pre-let.
Golf Park
A 10 year lease has been finalised with RCS Cards (Pty) Ltd for the development of a new building measuring 6,900m(2) of GLA with the option of an additional
annex of 1,500m(2) GLA. The development will allow for a strategic upgrade of the balance of the park as well as the precinct as a whole.
The total capital cost of the project, including land and finance costs, is R117m with an anticipated initial yield of 8%. The anticipated completion date is October
2014.
Albion Spring
The Albion Spring is one of Acucap's older office parks, occupying a prime location in Rondebosch. On expiry of the current leases in November 2013, it will
be fully redeveloped into a modern, premium grade office park. During the redevelopment, which is expected to be complete by December 2014, vacancies
will increase by a planned 2,800m(2).
N1 Business Park, Midrand
The development of this prime industrial park has continued in line with expectations. Demand remains good and rentals firm. The current developed GLA
amounts to approximately 64 000m(2) and the net yield on completed developments is 11.12%. The available bulk remaining for development is approximately
36 000m(2).
Montague Park, Montague Gardens
Montague Park has established itself as a prime industrial node within the greater Cape Town precinct. Demand remains good and rentals have shown resilience.
The current total GLA amounts to approximately 43 000m(2) at a net yield of 9.15%. The park still has undeveloped bulk rights for a further 121 000m(2) of GLA.
3. PORTFOLIO RECAPITALISATION ACTIVITY
Key West Shopping Centre
The introduction of a food court as well as the expansion of the new waterfront entertainment area has been successfully completed. The final phase of the
redevelopment is in progress and includes the relocation of the Virgin Active Gym, and the introduction of a banking hall into which all of the banks will be
relocated, freeing up valuable space in the fashion mall. In total, approximately 7,500m(2) of additional retail space will be added in this phase, along with
additional parking. It is scheduled for completion by early 2015, and reflects an initial yield of 7.5%.
4. SYCOM
A transaction with Hyprop Investments was successfully concluded with an effective date of 1 October 2013, in terms of which Somerset Mall was transferred to
Hyprop in exchange for the tendering of 81.5m units in Sycom. These units have been cancelled, with the result that Hyprop's interest in Sycom reduces to1.4%
and Acucap's holding increases to 33.5%.
5. SELF-STORAGE JOINT VENTURE
There was pleasing progress in the growth of this business, which now comprises 33 sites that are complete, under construction or in the pre-construction
plan approval phase. Work has commenced on a separate listing of the self-storage business in the next 18 to 24 months, and unless there are material
adverse changes in market conditions, the joint venture partners would expect to come to the market with a listing portfolio of between R1bn and R1.5bn
in value. There are significant growth prospects for the self-storage asset class before it begins to approach the maturity levels of the US, Australian and
European markets
