Consolidated condensed statement of comprehensive income


RENTAL INCOME

Revenue includes rental income and expenditure that is recoverable from tenants.

Revenue has increased from R270,5 million to R555,6 million as the full effect of the acquisitions concluded during the previous
financial year, together with the partial impact of acquisitions concluded during this period and annual escalations to the
existing leases, are taken into account.

The results for the 6 months ended 31 March 2015 include the results from the acquisitions of Vividend Income Fund Limited
(“Vividend”) and JIKA Properties Proprietary Limited (“JIKA”), both of which were implemented after 31 March 2014.


Set out below is the letting report for the 6 months ended 31 March 2015.

The tenant retention ratio for the 6 months ended 31 March 2015 at 55,2% is lower than experienced by Arrowhead in previous
periods mainly due to the impact of: Ellerines Furnishers (12 010 m²), ABSA Bank Beyers Naude (3 081 m²) and ABSA Bank Rosebank
(1 497 m²) not renewing their leases. Furthermore an industrial tenant at Tarry’s Head Office (10 824 m²), and a government
tenant in Port Elizabeth, did not renew their leases. Of the 34 367 m² not renewed, 13 321 m² has been re-let bringing the re-
occupancy ratio of lease expiries up to 73,0%. None of these, with the exception of Tarry’s Head Office, were expected to renew
their leases and income on vacant space was not taken into account in determining the forecast distribution.

These non-renewals has led to an increased vacancy of 8,9% but presents the opportunity to increase the forecasted distribution
once these premises are let.

LISTED SECURITIES INCOME

The listed securities income is in respect of the income received on the Dipula Income Fund (“Dipula”) B linked units.


PROPERTY EXPENSES

Property expenses have increased from R92,5 million to R177,7 million which is in line with the recently acquired portfolio. The
ratio of property expenses to revenue has improved marginally to 32,0% from 34,2%. The recovery of municipal expenses has
increased from 91,0% to 92,0% as the processing of recoveries has become more efficient.

All other property related expenditure has increased in line with the enlarged property portfolio.


ADMINISTRATIVE AND CORPORATE EXPENSES

Administrative and corporate expenses have increased from R11,9 million to R12,8 million. The largest contributor to
administrative expenses is salaries, which has increased as a result of the yearly increases and a new staff complement required
due to the newly acquired portfolio.

INTEREST RECIEVED

Interest received income which comprises, interest on loan units, interest on cash balances and other, decreased from R15,5 million to 
R13,4 million. The repayment of the loan to the Arrowhead Charitable Trust has resulted in the interest received being lower than the 
previous period.

Antecedent income was recognised on the proceeds of the book build of R600,0 million implemented in February 2015.

FINANCE CHARGES

Finance charges have increased from R34,5 million to R104,6 million. The increase is due to the acquisition of investment
properties totalling R3,5 billion. In order to partially fund these acquisitions the gearing has increased from R872,1 million
(31 March 2014) to R2,3 billion.

Arrowhead has entered into interest rate swaps to hedge its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates as follows:

   -   R189 m until 31 May 2017;
   -   R140 m until 15 August 2017;
   -   R35 m until 31 August 2017;
   -   R629 m until 31 March 2018;
   -   R72 m until 31 May 2018;
   -   R113 m until 17 June 2019; and
   -   R595 m until 2 September 2019.

The secured financial liabilities of R2,3 billion (31 March 2014: R872,1 million) measured against investment properties of R7,3 billion 
(2014: R3,2 billion) represents a loan to value of 31,5% and 22,9% respectively. Of the secured financial liabilities of R2,3 billion, 
R2,2 billion has been hedged, equating to 96% of total loans outstanding. Arrowhead’s target loan to value is around 35,0%.

In terms of Arrowhead’s treasury function, excess funds are placed in an access facilities within the secured financial
liabilities to reduce the overall interest charge. The effective interest rate for the 6 months ended 31 March 2014 was 9,0% (2014: 8,6%).

LOANS TO PARTICIPANTS OF ARROWHEAD UNIT PURCHASE TRUST

Loans to participants of the Arrowhead Unit Purchase Trust have increased from R143,0 million to R255,1 million due to loans
being advanced to participants of the unit purchase trust in November 2014. The recipients include the executive directors and
staff of Arrowhead and the loans are used to subscribe for units in Arrowhead at market value and are secured by the cession of
the units to company. The loans bear interest at the company’s effective rate of borrowings.

FINANCIAL ASSETS

which includes a mark to market adjustment of R149,0 million.


TRADE AND OTHER RECEIVABLES

balance outstanding has increased from the prior year as a result of the enlarged property portfolio. Trade receivables
outstanding at 31 March 2015 amounted to R15,2 million (of which R7,5 million has been provided for) or 2,8% of revenue. All
trade receivables outstanding for more than 90 days (in addition to specific trade receivables that are deemed to be impaired)
have been provided for.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents have increased from R83,1 million to R493,2 million as a result of cash generated by the property
portfolio and the book build of R600,0 million which was used to fund property acquisitions.

NON-CURRENT LIABILITIES - DEBENTURES

Debentures has increased from R4,3 billion to R5,1 billion. The increase is a result of the issue of linked units pursuant to
the book build, the issue of linked units to fund the acquisition of additional Dipula B linked units and the issue of units to
participants of the Arrowhead Unit Purchase Trust.

SECURED FINANCIAL LIABILITIES

Secured financial liabilities have decreased from R2,4 billion to R2,3 billion. The decrease is due to excess funds being
deposited into secured access facilities.

TRADE AND OTHER PAYABLES

portfolio.

PROSPECTS

The distribution for the six months ended 31 March 2015 is 19,03% higher than the comparable six months ended 31 March 2014.
Based on the acquisitions concluded to date and the performance of the existing portfolio, management expects to achieve a
distribution per combined A and B linked unit for the year ended 30 September 2015 of R1,49 i.e. 11,82% growth on the
distribution to 30 September 2014.

Arrowhead has cancelled a lease it has with Monash University due to non-payment of rent. The lease is in respect of 333
apartments used for student accommodation. Rental on these units have not been taken into account in the forecast.

Payment of the dividend will be made to shareholders on Monday, 8 June 2015. In respect of dematerialised shares, the dividend
will be transferred to the CSDP/brokers accounts on Monday, 8 June 2015. Certificated linked unitholders’ dividend payments will 
be posted on or about Monday, 8 June 2015.

In accordance with Arrowhead’s status as a REIT, linked unitholders are advised that the distributions meets the requirements of
a “qualifying distribution” for the purposes of section 25BB of the Income Tax Act, No. 58 of 1962 (“Income Tax Act”). The
distributions on the linked units will be deemed to be dividends, for South African tax purposes, in terms of section 25BB of
the Income Tax Act.

The distributions received by or accrued to South African tax residents must be included in the gross income of such linked
unitholders and will not be exempt from income tax (in terms of the exclusion to the general dividend exemption, contained in
paragraph (aa) of section 10(1) (k) (i) of the Income Tax Act) because they are dividends distributed by a REIT. These
distributions are, however, exempt from dividend withholding tax in the hands of South African tax resident linked unitholders,
provided that the South African resident linked unitholders provided the following forms to their Central Securities Depository
Participant (“CSDP”) or broker, as the case may be, in respect of uncertificated linked units, or the company, in respect of
certificated linked units:

a)   a declaration that the distributions are exempt from dividends tax; and
b)   a written undertaking to inform the CSDP, broker or the company, as the case may be, should the circumstances affecting the
     exemption change or the beneficial owner cease to be the
     beneficial owner, both in the form prescribed by the Commissioner for the South African Revenue Service. Linked unitholders

are advised to contact their CSDP, broker or the company, as the case may be, to arrange for the abovementioned documents to be
submitted prior to payment of the distributions, if such documents have not already been submitted.

Distributions received by non-resident linked unitholders will not be taxable as income and instead will be treated as ordinary
dividends which is exempt from income tax in terms of the general dividend exemption in section 10(1)(k)(i) of the Income Tax
Act. It should be noted that up to 31 December 2013 distributions received by non-residents from a REIT were not subject to
dividend withholding tax. From 1 January 2014, any distributions received by a non-resident from a REIT will be subject to
dividend withholding tax at 15%, unless the rate is reduced in terms of any applicable agreement for the avoidance of double
taxation (“DTA”) between South Africa and the country of residence of the linked unitholders. Assuming dividend withholding tax
will be withheld at a rate of 15%, the net dividend amount due to non-resident linked unitholders is 15,89500 cents per A linked
unit and 15,89500 cents per B linked unit. A reduced dividend withholding rate in terms of the applicable DTA, may only be
relied on if the non-resident linked unitholder has provided the following forms to their CSDP or broker, as the case may be, in
respect of uncertificated linked units, or the company, in respect of certificated linked units:

a)   a declaration that the distributions are subject to a reduced rate as a result of the application of a DTA; and
b)   a written undertaking to inform their CSDP, broker or the company, as the case may be, should the circumstances affecting
     the reduced rate change or the beneficial owner cease to be the beneficial owner,

both in the form prescribed by the Commissioner for the South African Revenue Service. Non-resident linked unitholders are
advised to contact their CSDP, broker or the company, as the case may be, to arrange for the abovementioned documents to be
submitted prior to payment of the distribution if such documents have not already been submitted, if applicable.

Linked unitholders are encouraged to consult their professional advisors should they be in any doubt as to the appropriate
action to take.

COMPARATIVES RESTATED

Due to a JSE Listing requirement and the Financial Reporting Investigation Panel, the treatment of antecedent income and
debenture premium has resulted in comparatives for the period end 31 March 2014 being restated. The results for September 2014
have already been reported and accounted for in the correct manner. Beneath is a table which illustrates the effect the
restatement has had on the Statement of comprehensive income and earnings and headline earnings. Selected reportable line items
have been noted.
