Commentary
General Information
Stenprop Limited (formerly GoGlobal Properties Limited) (the "Company" or "Stenprop"), together with its subsidiaries
(the "Group") was incorporated in Bermuda on 26 October 2012 with registration number 47031, in accordance with section
14 of the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda, as a Bermudan exempted company. It was listed on the Bermuda Stock Exchange
("BSX") on 15 March 2013 and, following approval from the South African Reserve Bank, it concluded an inward listing on the
Alternative Exchange of the Johannesburg Stock Exchange on 29 April 2013. Formerly known as GoGlobal Properties Limited,
it changed its name to Stenprop Limited on 9 October 2014. The Company has complied with the requirements and provisions
of the BSX during the reporting period.
The Company has a secondary listing on the Alternative Exchange of the Johannesburg Stock Exchange ("AltX"), The Company's
registered address is Williams House, 20 Reid Street, Hamilton HM 11, Bermuda. The Board of the Company, which meets and
conducts its business from Guernsey, is responsible for the management, control and strategic decision-making of the Group.
Investment strategy
Stenprop's focus is on property investment in the United Kingdom, Germany and Switzerland. Its objective is to cultivate a
diversified portfolio of investment properties delivering sustainable and growing earnings, distributions and capital growth by
investing partly in core growth areas and partly in higher yielding assets with long leases and sustainable income. It does not intend
to pursue development exposure other than value-add asset management and related development of existing assets to protect
and improve earnings and capital values. The Group is targeting an average loan to value ratio of 50%.
Business review
The Stenham Transaction
On 1 October 2014 and 2 October 2014, the Group completed a transformational transaction, in terms of which it acquired:
- various property companies which collectively had an interest in 45 properties in Germany, Switzerland and the
United Kingdom;
- the Stenham Property management business;
- various cash holding entities; and
- the external investment manager, ApexHi (UK) Limited.
The total purchase consideration for the acquisition of the property companies was calculated with reference to the net asset
value of the property companies at 31 March 2014 and amounted to EUR281.0 million. The purchase consideration for the Stenham
Property management business was EUR15.6 million and the purchase consideration for ApexHi (UK) Limited was EUR3.8 million. The
purchase consideration for the cash holding subsidiaries was EUR18.4 million.
The purchase consideration for the acquisitions was funded by the issue of 232,916,809 new Stenprop ordinary shares to the
value of EUR318,791,449 on the Bermuda Stock Exchange at an issue price of EUR1.37 per share, which was the Euro equivalent of the
net asset value per share of the Company as at 31 March 2014.
Further details of the Stenham Transaction are provided in note 26.
Disposal of Chiswell Street
This property was acquired as part of the Stenham Transaction at its 31 March 2014 valuation of GBP41.6 million, and was
subsequently revalued at GBP43.6 million at completion on 1 October 2014. Ongoing negotiations with tenants provided the
opportunity for a full scale redevelopment of the property, thus creating the potential for substantial value uplift.
In line with the Group's investment strategy to avoid development projects which negatively impact distributable earnings,
a decision was taken to dispose of the property at a premium price, unlocking a significant portion of the potential value uplift
without any of the attendant risks and without negatively impacting distributable income.
The disposal in March 2015 at a price of GBP48.3 million delivered a net gain of GBP3.5 million after costs while releasing funds for
investment in the Trafalgar Court acquisition which more closely fits the investment objectives of the Group.
Acquisition of Trafalgar Court
The acquisition of this 112,941 square foot multi-let office building in Guernsey was completed in March 2015 at a price of
GBP61.4 million. It was funded from available cash and with a GBP30 million, five year bank debt secured at an all-in rate of 3.35% per
annum. With a weighted average unexpired lease term ("WAULT") in excess of 12 years and high quality tenants, the acquisition
is expected to deliver in excess of 8% return on equity per annum.
Refinance of Hollandbay
On 24 March 2015, the Group extended the current loan facility over the portfolio known as Hollandbay to 24 March 2016. In
terms of the agreement, the Group made a voluntary prepayment of GBP1.4 million to secure the extension, bringing the loan
down to GBP4.8 million. All other terms remained unchanged.
Investment in Berlin Residential Portfolio
The Group has acquired a 10.4% shareholding in Stenham Berlin Residential Fund Limited ("SBRF") at a cost of EUR5.4 million.
SBRF holds a strategic interest in excess of 17% in ADO Limited ("ADO"), a company listed on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange. ADO
focuses exclusively on the Berlin residential market and owns a portfolio in excess of 13,000 apartments in Berlin. Two of the
Company's executive directors, Paul Arenson and Patsy Watson, are directors on the board of ADO. ADO is in the process of
listing its wholly owned subsidiary on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange to unlock further value and potential.
Post year-end business activity
Acquisition of 25 Argyll Street
On 20 May 2015, the Group acquired a 50% interest in Regent Arcade House Holdings Limited ("RAHHL"), which owns the
property known as 25 Argyll Street. The acquisition cost of this interest was GBP18.9 million which was based on a valuation of the
property of GBP75 million. RAHHL refinanced the property with an interest only bank loan of GBP37.5 million at an all-in rate of 2.974%
per annum, with a term of five years.
Notarisation of Hermann Quartier, Neukoelln, Berlin
The acquisition of this property for a purchase price of EUR22.7 million was notarised on 11 May 2015 and is expected to complete
in mid-July. Based on indicative five year swap rates, the return on equity on this investment is expected to exceed 7% per
annum at inception.
Refinance of Euston House
On 8 May 2015, the Group refinanced the property known as Euston House on favourable terms with a five year loan to May 2020.
The new facility of GBP27,540,000 is interest only. A five year interest rate swap agreement was entered into to fix the interest rate
at an all-in rate of 3.02% per annum (previous facility: 4.54%). The Group incurred costs of GBP413,000 to break the former swap
agreement.
Refinance of Pilgrim Street
On 29 May 2015, the Group extended the existing bank loan (which was due to expire in March 2016), on the property known as
Pilgrim Street on favourable terms until March 2019. With effect from signature, the loan became interest only. An interest rate
swap agreement was entered into to fix the interest rate for the period from the prior termination date, being 23 March 2016,
until the new termination date, at an all-in rate of 2.90% per annum. An existing swap agreement results in an all-in rate of 4.11%
until 23 March 2016. The previous all-in rate on the loan was 4.96%.
Financial review
Income statement
Audited IFRS earnings for the year ended 31 March 2015
The earnings for the period to 30 September 2014 include only the results for the eight properties acquired by the Group on
25 March 2014. Subsequent to the completion of the Stenham Transaction, which is further detailed in note 26, the earnings for
the six month period since completion include the results of the entire portfolio as well as the management companies. Profit
after tax attributable to shareholders for the year was EUR37,598,804 compared with a loss of EUR37,425 in the prior period,
delivering a diluted IFRS EPS of 28.37 cents (2014: IFRS loss per share: 7.02 cents).
Management fee income relates to fees earned by the management companies for the six month period from the Stenham
Transaction completion date until year end. Prior to the Stenham Transaction, the management companies provided
management and administration services to certain property syndicates and funds which did not form part of the Stenham
Transaction. The management companies continue to earn fees from managing these entities.
Operating costs include costs of Stenprop Advisers Limited and Stenprop Management Limited, being the management
companies acquired in the Stenham Transaction ("management companies"), of EUR3.5 million for the six month period from
the Stenham Transaction completion date until year end, of which EUR2.1 million relates to staff remuneration costs (including
executive directors).
Unaudited pro forma earnings for the year ended 31 March 2015
Whilst the completion date of the acquisition by Stenprop of the various property companies in the Stenham Transaction
was 1 October 2014, which is when all material conditions were met, the transaction was effective from 1 April 2014, which is
the date at which the value of the property companies was determined. All trading results in the property companies for the
six months from 1 April 2014 to the date of acquisition, and any changes in values, were therefore for the benefit of Stenprop.
As a result, the fair value of the net assets acquired was greater than the consideration paid and hence a Gain on Acquisition
in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income was recognised on the acquisition date. In order to provide more
transparency on the performance of the acquired properties and to provide a more comprehensive view of the composition
of the gain on acquisition, a pro forma consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the year to 31 March 2015, has
been presented. The main difference between the pro forma statement of comprehensive income and the IFRS statement is
that the pro forma statement of comprehensive income has been prepared as if completion of the acquisition of the property
owning companies had taken place on 1 April 2014, which was the effective date on which risk and reward in the purchase of the
various property companies passed to Stenprop, while the IFRS statements use the completion date of the acquisition (date
that control passed), being 1 October 2014, to account for these investments.
Earnings per share is calculated on the weighted average number of shares in issue and the profit/(loss) attributable to
shareholders.
The pro forma profit after tax attributable to shareholders for the year was EUR35,058,347 after writing off all goodwill associated
with the Stenham Transaction, which is further detailed in note 26. This equates to a pro forma diluted IFRS EPS of 14.03 cents.
The pro forma headline earnings are EUR21,088,031 equating to a diluted headline EPS of 8.44 cents.
In accordance with reporting standards widely adopted across the real estate industry in Europe, the directors feel it appropriate
and useful, in addition to providing the IFRS disclosed earnings, to also disclose EPRA earnings(2).
Pro forma adjusted EPRA earnings attributable to shareholders are EUR24,532,194, equating to a pro forma diluted adjusted EPRA
EPS of 9.81 cents. This equates to an earnings yield of 7.16% on the Stenham Transaction issue price of EUR1.37 or an earnings
yield of 5.95% on the EPRA net asset value per share at 31 March 2015 of EUR1.65.
(2) The European Public Real Estate Association ("EPRA") issued Best Practices Policy Recommendations in August 2011, which provide guidelines for performance measures relevant to real estate companies. Their recommended reporting standards are widely applied across this market, aiming to bring consistency and transparency to the sector. The EPRA earnings measure is intended to show the level of recurring earnings from core operational activities with the purpose of highlighting the Group's underlying operating results from its property rental business and an indication of the extent to which current dividend payments are supported by earnings. The measure excludes unrealised changes in the value of investment properties, gains or losses on the disposal of properties and other items that do not provide an accurate picture of the Group's underlying operational performance. The measure is considered to accurately capture the long-term strategy of the Group, and is an indication of the sustainability of dividend payments.
Dividends
On 10 June 2015, the directors declared a dividend of 4.2 cents per share, relating to the six months to 31 March 2015, being
the first period of trading following the Stenham Transaction. This dividend delivers a return of 3.06% (annualised: 6.12%) on the
Stenham Transaction issue price of EUR1.37, or an annualised return of 5.1% on the EPRA NAV per share of EUR1.65.
The directors intend to offer shareholders the option to receive in respect of all or part of their Stenprop shareholding either
a scrip dividend by way of an issue of new Stenprop shares, or a cash dividend. An announcement containing details of the
dividend, the timetable and the scrip dividend will be made on 19 June 2015. The record date for the dividend is 10 July 2015 and
the dividend payment date is 16 July 2015.
Balance sheet
The IFRS (basic and diluted) net asset value per share at 31 March 2015 was EUR1.59.
As is the case with regard to the disclosure of EPRA earnings, the directors feel that it is appropriate and useful, in addition to
IFRS NAV, to also disclose EPRA NAV(3). The basic and diluted EPRA NAV per share at 31 March 2015 was EUR1.65, an increase of
20.44% on the Stenham Transaction issue price of EUR1.37 and a 13% increase on the EPRA NAV per share of EUR1.46 at the time of
completion of the Stenham Transaction. A strengthening in the Swiss Franc and Sterling against the Euro accounted for 5.5%
of the 13% increase since the Stenham Transaction, while an increase in the fair market value of the portfolio accounted for a
further 4.5%. Operational activity accounted for 2.2% with the remaining 0.8% resulting from changes in deferred tax and the
fair value of derivatives.
Portfolio valuation
United Kingdom
The UK portfolio was independently valued at GBP245.9 million at 31 March 2015, an increase of 10.8% on a like for like basis over
the valuations at 1 April 2014, the effective date of the Stenham Transaction from which risk and reward passed to Stenprop.
This represents a 5.7% increase since 1 October 2014. In Euro equivalent terms, the appreciation of Sterling against the Euro
resulted in a further 13.0% increase in values during the year. All properties in the UK are currently fully let.
The significant increase in value reflects the fact that over 59% of the UK portfolio comprises Central London multi-let office
buildings. At present, there is a structural imbalance in Central London made up of a shortage of office supply compared with
above average tenant demand for space. This is resulting in strong growth in rents and capital values.
Germany
The German portfolio (excluding associates and joint ventures) was independently valued at EUR191.7 million as at 31 March 2015
reflecting an increase of 1.1% on a like for like basis since 1 April 2014, the effective date of the Stenham Transaction.
This represents a 1.2% increase since 1 October 2014. Vacancies increased slightly from 3.2% to 4.0% over the year as a
result of development activity at the Bleichenhof property in Hamburg.
Switzerland
The Swiss portfolio was independently valued at CHF175.0 million as at 31 March 2015, reflecting no movement in the fair
value during the year. However, this represented an increase of 15.9% in Euro equivalent as a result of the unexpectedly strong
appreciation of the Swiss Franc against the Euro during the period. This arose when the Swiss Central Bank announced it was no
longer pegging its currency to the Euro.
Occupancy decreased slightly over the period to 95.0% from 96.5% as at 1 April 2014, largely as a result of one tenant vacating
the Cham property.
Joint ventures
The Care Homes portfolio independent valuation of EUR33.4 million remained unchanged during the year. This portfolio remains
fully let.
(3) The objective of the EPRA NAV measure is to highlight the fair value of net assets on an ongoing, long-term basis. EPRA NAV is used as a reporting measure to better reflect underlying net asset value attributable to shareholders. Assets and liabilities that are not expected to crystallise in normal circumstances such as the fair value of financial derivatives and deferred taxes on property valuation surpluses are therefore excluded. The EPRA measure thus takes into account the fair value of assets and liabilities as at the balance sheet date, other than fair value adjustments to financial instruments, deferred tax and goodwill. As the Group has adopted fair value accounting for investment property per IAS40, adjustments to reflect the EPRA NAV include only those relating to the revaluation of financial instruments and deferred tax.
Associates
The Nova Eventis shopping centre in Leipzig, in which the Group has a 28.40% interest, was independently valued at
EUR275 million at 31 March 2015, a 2% reduction over the valuation at 1 April 2014 of EUR280 million.
Nova Eventis has 200 tenants and is currently undergoing a period of significant leasing activity. The valuation change partly
reflects the fact that some leases are falling due for renewal.
Capital management
Stenprop's average loan to value ratio ("LTV") at 31 March 2015 was 53.8%, including joint ventures and associates. The Group
is targeting an average LTV of 50%.
The weighted average debt maturity stood at 2.2 years at 31 March 2015, with annual amortisation payments of
EUR9.8 million, while the all-in annual contracted weighted average cost of debt was 3.07%. After taking into account the post year
end debt refinances and acquisitions referred to above, weighted average debt maturity increased to 3.0 years as at 31 May 2015,
Annual amortisation payments dropped to EUR6.7 million and the all-in contracted weighted average cost of debt dropped to
2.74%. After taking into account the amortisation of the swap contract liabilities acquired by Stenprop as part of the Stenham
Transaction, the effective weighted average cost of debt at 31 March 2015 and after post year end transactions is 2.45%.
The Group does not take speculative positions on interest rate contracts and generally takes interest rate hedges on all of its
debt. At 31 March 2015, the fair value liability of Stenprop's derivative financial instruments was EUR8,188,421, including associates
and joint ventures.
Cash balances
At 31 March 2015 Stenprop had cash balances of EUR80.4 million. After taking into account cash held as security by lenders,
post year end and committed transactions, and an assumption that the dividend will be paid wholly in cash, Stenprop has
approximately EUR20 million available for investment.
Prospects
The Group expects adjusted EPRA earnings per share for the year ended 31 March 2016 to exceed 10.30 cents and to make
two distributions in respect of the year ended 31 March 2016 totalling 8.5 cents per share. This general forecast has not been
reported on by the external auditors.
The Group intends to migrate to the Main Board of the Johannesburg Stock Exchange in the third quarter of the current
financial year.
Subsequent events
Adoption of share incentive plans and creation of a charitable trust
At a Special General Meeting held on 2 June 2015, the shareholders of the Company approved the adoption of a Deferred Share
Bonus Plan and a Share Purchase Plan, as well as the creation of a charitable trust. Further details regarding the share plans are
provided in note 8 to the annual financial statements.
Independent auditors
Deloitte LLP were appointed as the independent external auditors for the financial year ended 31 March 2015. There had been
no change in this appointment since the prior year. The preparation of the financial statements remain the responsibility of the
directors.
Statement of directors' responsibilities
The directors are responsible for preparing the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Bermudian 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 International Financial Reporting Standards as
issued by the IASB. The financial statements are required to give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Group and of
the profit or loss of the Group for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the directors are required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- make judgements and 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 for the foreseeable future;
- follow applicable accounting standards.
The directors are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the
financial position of the Group and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 1981
of Bermuda. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the
prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Statement as to disclosure of information to auditors
So far as the directors are aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the Group's auditors are unaware, and each
director has taken all the steps that he ought to have taken as a director in order to make himself aware of any relevant audit
information and to establish that the Group's auditors are aware of that information.
Approval of annual financial statements
The consolidated annual financial statements of Stenprop Limited were approved by the Board of Directors on 10 June 2015
and are signed on their behalf by:
Michael Fienberg Paul Arenson Patsy Watson
Chairman of Audit Committee Chief Executive Officer Chief Financial Officer
Independent auditor's report to the members of
Stenprop Limited
We have audited the statutory consolidated financial statements of Stenprop Limited ("the Company") and its subsidiary
companies (together "the Group") for the period from 1 April 2014 to 31 March 2015 which comprise the consolidated statement
of comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of financial position, the consolidated statement of changes in equity,
the consolidated statement of cash flows and the related notes 1 to 32. The financial reporting framework that has been applied
in their preparation is applicable law and International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International
Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") and in accordance with the section 90 of the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda.
This report is made solely to the Company's members, in accordance with our engagement letter dated 4 March 2015, and
in accordance with the section 90 of the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda. 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's
members as a body for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
Respective responsibilities of directors and auditor
As explained more fully in the directors' responsibilities statement, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the
consolidated financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view. Our responsibility is to audit and
express an opinion on the statutory consolidated financial statements in accordance with applicable law and International
Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland). Those standards require us to comply with the Auditing Practices Board's Ethical
Standards for Auditors.
Scope of the audit of the statutory consolidated financial statements
An audit involves obtaining evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements sufficient to
give reasonable assurance that the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether caused by
fraud or error. This includes an assessment of: whether the accounting policies are appropriate to the Group's circumstances
and have been consistently applied and adequately disclosed; the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by
the directors; and the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. In addition, we read all the financial and non-
financial information in the annual report to identify material inconsistencies with the audited statutory consolidated financial
statements and to identify any information that is apparently materially incorrect based on, or materially inconsistent with, the
knowledge acquired by us in the course of performing the audit. If we become aware of any apparent material misstatements or
inconsistencies we consider the implications for our report.
Opinion
In our opinion the statutory consolidated financial statements:
- give a true and fair view of the state of the Group's affairs as at 31 March 2015 and of its profit for the period from
1 April 2014 to 31 March 2015;
- have been properly prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB; and
- the financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the engagement letter requires us to report to you if, in our
opinion:
- proper accounting records have not been kept; or
- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records; or
- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

Notes to the financial statements
1. Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as
issued by the IASB. The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for the revaluation of
investment properties and financial instruments that are measured at fair values at the end of each reporting period, as
explained in the accounting policies below. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in
exchange for goods and services. The principal accounting policies are set out below.
In addition, for financial reporting purposes, fair value measurements are categorised into levels 1, 2 or 3 based on the
degree to which the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs to the fair
value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:
Level 1 – Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access
at the measurement date.
Level 2 – Inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability,
either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 – Inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The financial statements are presented in Euros.
Pro forma financial information
In the interests of consistency in those areas of reporting that are seen to be of most relevance to investors and of providing
a meaningful basis of comparison for users of the financial information, the Group has prepared an unaudited pro forma
statement of comprehensive income for the 12 months ended 31 March 2015.
The pro forma statement of comprehensive income is for illustration purposes only and may not fairly represent the
Group's results of operations. The main difference between the pro forma statement of comprehensive income and the
IFRS statement is that the pro forma statement of income has been prepared as if completion of the Stenham Transaction
(as set out in Note 26) had taken place on 1 April 2014, which was the effective date on which risk and reward passed to
Stenprop in the purchase of the various property companies, while the IFRS statements use the completion date of the
acquisition (date that control passed), being 2 October 2014, to account for these investments.
The pro forma statement of comprehensive income therefore separately shows trading profits, property revaluations
and other adjustments for the 12-month financial period ended 31 March 2015. In addition, the pro forma statement
of comprehensive income discloses the notional goodwill arising on the purchase of the management companies, the
gain arising on the purchase of the property companies (which under IFRS is treated as one linked transaction), and the
recognition of the amount of the deferred consideration which is reasonably expected to become payable.
Functional and Presentational Currency
There has been a change in the Group's presentational currency since the prior year from British Pounds ("GBP") to Euro ("EUR").
From this date the financial statements are presented in Euro. This is a change in currency from the prior period and all prior
period comparatives have been restated at a rate of GBP1: EUR1.21023 being the exchange rate prevailing at 31 March 2014. The
functional currency of the Group is also considered to be Euro and was implemented with effect from 1 October 2014 as
from this date the Euro is considered to be the currency which best reflects the primary economic enviroment in which the
Group operates.
Going concern
At the date of signing these accounts, the Group has positive operating cash flow forecasts and positive net assets.
The directors have reviewed the Group's budgets for the year to 31 March 2016 and, in the light of this review and the
current financial position, they are satisfied that the Company and the Group have access to adequate resources to
meet the obligations and continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, and specifically the 12 months
subsequent to the signing of these financial statements.
The cash flow forecasts take into account projected income and expenses; possible changes in the investment property
portfolio, including exposure to tenant credit risk; lease expiries; the raising of additional capital; the external debt;
refinancings which have occurred subsequent to the reporting date and financial loan covenants.
The directors believe that it is therefore appropriate to prepare the accounts on a going concern basis. Note 29 to the
financial statements includes the Group's objectives, policies and procedures for managing its market, interest and
liquidity risk.
2. Adoption of new and revised standards
In the current period, the following new and revised standards and interpretations have been adopted. Their adoption has
not had any material impact on the disclosures or the amounts reported in these financial statements:
- IFRS 10 Investment entities: exemption from consolidation requirements
- IAS 32 Offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities
- IAS 36 Recoverable amount disclosure for non-financial assets
- IAS 39 Novation of derivatives and continuation of hedge accounting
- IFRIC 21 Levies
At the date of authorisation of these financial statements, the following applicable standards which have not been applied
to these financial statements, were in issue but not yet effective. They are effective for periods commencing on or after
the disclosed date:
- IFRS 9 Financial instruments (1 January 2018)
- IFRS 14 Regulatory Deferral Accounts (1 January 2016)
- IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (1 January 2017)
- IFRS 11 (amendments) Accounting for acquisitions of interests in joint operations (1 January 2016)
Clarification of acceptable methods of depreciation and amortisation
- IAS 16 and IAS 38 (1 January 2016)
- IAS 19 Defined benefit plans: Employee contributions (1 July 2014)
- IAS 27 (amendments) Equity method in separate financial statements
Sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint
- IFRS 10 and IAS 28 (amendments) Venture (1 January 2016)
- Annual improvements to IFRSs: 2012 – 2014 Cycle (1 January 2016)
In addition the IASB completed its annual improvements to IFRSs 2010 – 2012 cycle and 2011 – 2013 cycle, which have
amended a number of existing standards for periods commencing on or after 1 July 2014.
The directors do not expect that the adoption of the standards listed above will have a material impact on the financial
statements of the Group in the future period.
3. Significant accounting policies
Basis of consolidation
Consolidation of a subsidiary begins when the Company obtains control over the subsidiary and ceases when the Company
loses control of the subsidiary. Specifically, the results of the subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the period are
included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the date the Company gains control until the date
when the Company ceases to control the subsidiary.
Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the Company and to
the non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income of the subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Company
and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.
Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring the accounting policies used
into line with the Group's accounting policies.
All intragroup assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between the members
of the Group are eliminated on consolidation.
When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, the gain or loss on disposal recognised in profit or loss is calculated as the
difference between (i) the aggregate of the fair value of the consideration received and the fair value of any retained
interest and (ii) the previous carrying amount of the assets (including goodwill), less liabilities of the subsidiary and any non-
controlling interests.
All amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to that subsidiary are accounted for as
if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities of the subsidiary (i.e. reclassified to profit or loss or
transferred to another category of equity as specified/permitted by applicable IFRS). The fair value of any investment
retained in the former subsidiary at the date when control is lost is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition for
subsequent accounting under IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement or, when applicable, the costs
on initial recognition of an investment in an associate or jointly controlled entity.
Business combinations
The Group applies the acquisition method to account for business combinations. The cost of the acquisition is measured
at the aggregate of the fair values, at the date of completion, of assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed and equity
instruments issued by the Group in exchange for control of the acquired. The acquiree's identifiable assets, liabilities
and contingent liabilities that meet the conditions for recognition under IFRS 3 are recognised at their fair value at the
acquisition.
Goodwill is measured as the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest
in the acquiree, and the fair value of the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any) over the net of the
acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed.
If, after reassessment, the Group's interest in the fair value of the acquiree's identifiable net assets exceeds the sum of the
consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquisition and the fair value of the acquirer's
previously held equity interest in the acquiree (if any), the excess is recognised immediately in profit or loss as a gain on
acquisition.
Goodwill is not amortised but is reviewed for impairment at least annually. For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill
is allocated to each of the Group's cash-generating units expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. Cash-
generating units to which goodwill has been allocated are tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when there is
an indication that the unit may be impaired. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying
amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then
to the other assets of the unit pro rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. An impairment loss
recognised for goodwill is not reversed in a subsequent period.
Other intangible assets
Other intangible assets (if any) that are acquired by the Group, which have finite useful lives, are recognised initially at cost
and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Subsequent
expenditure is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits of the asset to which it relates. Intangible
assets with indefinite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.
Amortisation
Amortisation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets,
other than goodwill, from the date that they are available for use. Subsequently, the amortisation is transferred to
a non-distributable reserve in the statement of changes in equity.
Investments in associates
An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence and that is neither a subsidiary nor an interest in a
joint venture. Significant interest is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee
but is not control or joint control.
The results, assets and liabilities of associates are incorporated in these financial statements using the equity method
of accounting, except when the investment is classified as held for sale, in which case it is accounted for in accordance
with IFRS 5 Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations. Under the equity method, an investment
in associate is initially recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position at cost and adjusted thereafter to
recognise the Group's share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate.
Joint ventures
The Group's investment properties are typically held in property specific special purpose vehicles ("SPVs"), which may be
legally structured as joint ventures. In assessing whether a particular SPV is accounted for as a subsidiary or joint venture,
the Group considers all of the contractual terms of the arrangement, including the extent to which the responsibilities
and parameters of the venture are determined in advance of the joint venture agreement being agreed between the two
parties. The Group will then consider whether it has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the SPV,
so as to obtain benefits from its activities, and the existence of any legal disputes or challenges to this control in order to
conclude on the classification of the SPV as a joint venture or subsidiary undertaking. The Group considers this position
with the evidence available at the time.
The consolidated financial statements account for interests in joint ventures using the equity method of accounting
per IFRS 11.
Revenue recognition
The Group earns returns from investments in listed property securities and direct property assets and management
fees. Revenue is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the
Group and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably.
Revenue includes dividends and capital returns from investments in listed REITs as well as amounts receivable in respect of
property rental income and service charges earned in the normal course of business, net of sales-related taxes.
Rental income from operating leases is recognised on an accrual basis. A rent adjustment based on open market estimated
rental value is recognised from the rent review date in relation to unsettled rent reviews. Where a significant rent free period
is included in a lease, the rental income foregone is allocated evenly over the period from the date of lease commencement
to the expiry date of the lease.
Rental income from fixed and minimum guaranteed rent reviews is recognised on a straight-line basis over the entire lease
term. Where such rental income is recognised ahead of the related cash flow, an adjustment is made to ensure the carrying
value of the investment property including the accrued rent does not exceed the external valuation. Initial significant direct
costs incurred in negotiating and arrranging a new lease are amortised on a straight-line basis over the period from the
date of lease commencement to the expiry date of the lease.
Where a lease incentive payment, or surrender premium is paid to enhance the value of a property, it is amortised on a
straight-line basis over the period from the date of lease commencement to the expiry date of the lease. Upon receipt of
a surrender premium for the early determination of a lease, the profit, net of dilapidations and non-recoverable outgoings
relating to the lease concerned, is immediately reflected in income.
Contingent rents, such as turnover rents, rent reviews and indexation, are recorded as income in the periods in which they
are earned.
Management fees are recognised in the income statement on an accrual basis.
Service charge income is recognised in the accounting period in which the services are rendered and the related property
expenses are recognised in the period in which they are incurred.
Dividend income from listed securities is recognised at the date the dividend is declared. Interest income is recognised in
the consolidated statement of comprehensive income under the effective interest method as it accrues.
Foreign currencies
The individual financial statements of each group company are presented in the currency of the primary economic
environment in which it operates (its functional currency). For the purpose of the consolidated financial statements, the
results and financial position are expressed in EUROs, which is the functional currency of the Group and the presentation
currency for the consolidated financial statements.
In preparing the financial statements of the individual companies, transactions in currencies other than the entity's
functional currency (foreign currencies) are recognised at the rates of exchange prevailing on the dates of the transactions.
At each balance sheet date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at
the rates prevailing at that date. Non-monetary items carried at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are
translated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured
in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated. Exchange difference are recognised in profit or loss for
the period in which they arise.
For the purpose of presenting consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Group's foreign operations
are translated at exchange rates prevailing on the balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated at the
average exchange rates for the period. Exchange differences arising are recognised in other comprehensive income and
accumulated in equity (attributed to non-controlling interests as appropriate).
Borrowing costs
Interest costs are recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income using the effective interest rate
method.
Borrowing costs directly attributable to arranging finance are amortised over the facility term to the consolidated
statement of comprehensive income.
Taxation
The tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax, in those jurisdictions where the property
companies are registered, namely Germany, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. In addition, Stenprop Management
Limited incurs tax in the United Kingdom.
Current tax
Tax currently payable is based on taxable profit for the year. The Group's liability for current tax is calculated using tax rates
that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial
statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally
recognised for all taxable temporary differences.
Deferred tax assets are generally recognised for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that
taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such deferred tax
assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition
(other than in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit
nor the accounting profit.
Deferred tax liabilities are recognised for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries
and associates, and interests in joint ventures, except where the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary
difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets
arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are only recognised to the
extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of the temporary
differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that
it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability
is settled or the asset realised, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the
end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that
would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the
carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against
current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Group intends to
settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.
Non-controlling interest
Non-controlling interests in the net assets (excluding goodwill) of consolidated subsidiaries are identified separately from
the Group's equity therein. Non-controlling interests consist of the amount of those interests at the date of the original
business combination and the non-controlling interests' share of the changes in equity since the date of the combination.
Total comprehensive income is attributed to non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests
having a deficit balance.
Investment properties
Properties held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation are classified as investment properties. Investment
properties comprise both freehold and leasehold land and buildings.
Investment properties are recognised as assets when:
- it is probable that the future economic benefits that are associated with the investment property will flow to the Group;
- there are no material conditions precedent which could prevent completion, and
- the cost of the investment property can be measured reliably.
Investment properties are measured initially at cost, including related transaction costs. After initial recognition,
investment properties are carried at fair value.
The Group uses the valuations prepared by its independent valuers as the fair value of its investment properties.
These valuations are undertaken in accordance with the appropriate sections of the current Practice Statements contained
in the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors Valuation – Professional Standards (Red Book). This is an internationally
accepted basis of valuation. The valuations are based upon assumptions including contractual and estimated rental
values, future rental income, anticipated maintenance costs, future development costs and appropriate discount rates.
The valuers also make reference to market evidence of transaction prices for similar properties.
The difference between the fair value of a property at the reporting date and its carrying amount prior to
re-measurement is included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income as a valuation surplus or deficit.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet comprise cash at banks and on hand and short-term deposits with an
original maturity of three months or less.
Expenditure
Expenses are accounted for on an accrual basis.
Financial instruments
Classification
A financial instrument is a contract that gives rise to a financial asset to one entity and a financial liability or equity
instrument to another. The classification of financial assets and financial liabilities depends on the nature and purpose
of the instrument and is determined at the time of initial recognition. Debt and equity instruments are classified as either
financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual agreement.
Measurement
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to
the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets at fair value through profit or
loss ("FVTPL")) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on
initial recognition.
Transactions costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at FVTPL are recognised
immediately in the statement of comprehensive income.
Financial assets
The Group classifies its financial assets as either at fair value through profit and loss or as loans and receivables.
Recognition and derecognition
Purchases and sales of listed securities are recognised on the trade date which is when the Group commits to purchase or
sell the assets. Other financial assets are recognised when the Group becomes party to the contractual provisions of the
instrument.
After initial recognition, the Group measures financial assets designated at FVTPL at fair values without any deduction for
transaction costs it may incur on their disposal.
The fair value of quoted financial assets is their bid price at the financial year-end. If the market for a financial asset is not
active, the fair value is estimated using valuation techniques. These include a review of recent arm's length transactions,
references to current fair market value of another instrument that is substantially the same as that being valued and
discounted cash flow analysis. Where discounted cash flow analysis is used, estimated future cash flows are based on
management's estimates and the discount rate is a market-related rate at the financial year-end for a financial asset with
similar terms and conditions. Where other pricing models are used, inputs are based on observable market indicators at
the financial year-end.
Realised and unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in fair value of financial assets at FVTPL are included in the
statement of comprehensive income in the period in which they arise.
Loan and receivables are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less impairment losses which
are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. Financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the
effective interest rate method. In the case of short-term trade receivables and payables, the impact of discounting is not
material and cost approximates amortised cost.
The Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset have expired
or have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to
another entity.
Financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL")
Financial assets designated at fair value through profit or loss include the Group's investment in listed securities.
Financial assets are classified in this category if they are so designated by management and the asset forms part of a group
of financial instruments that is managed, evaluated and reported to the appropriate level of management using a fair value
basis in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy.
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an
active market. They include current assets with maturities or terms greater than 12 months after the reporting dates
which are classified as non-current assets.
Effective interest method
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a debt instrument and of allocating interest
income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash
receipts (including all fees and points paid or received that from an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction
costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the debt instrument, or, where appropriate, a shorter
period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets, other than those at FVTPL, are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period.
Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events
that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investments have
been affected.
Objective evidence of impairment could include:
- significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty, or
- breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, or
- it becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganisation.
For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between
the asset's carrying amount and present value of the estimated future cash flows, discounted at the financial assets
original effective interest rate.
The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets, with the
exception of trade receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of a provision account. When a trade
receivable is considered uncollectable, it is written off against the provision account. Changes in the carrying amount of
the provision account are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income in the period.
For financial assets measured at amortised cost if, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases
and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously
recognised impairment loss is reversed through the statement of comprehensive income to the extent that the carrying
amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortised cost would have
been had the impairment not been recognised.
Financial liabilities and equity
Debt and equity instruments are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the
contractual agreement.
Equity instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group after deducting all its
liabilities. Ordinary shares are classed as equity. Equity instruments issued by the Group are recorded at the proceeds
received, net of direct issue costs.
Financial liabilities
The Group's financial liabilities comprise interest-bearing borrowings, loans and payables and trade payables.
Recognition and derecognition
Financial liabilities are recognised when the Group becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
The Group derecognises financial liabilities when the Group's obligations are discharged, cancelled or they expire.
Derivatives
Interest rate swaps have been initially recognised at fair value, and subsequently re-measured at fair value in accordance
with IAS39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. They have been entered into in order to hedge against
the exposure to variable interest rate loans as described in note 24. They have been valued by an Independent valuer in line
with internationally accepted practice.
A derivative with a positive fair value is recognised as a financial asset whereas a derivative with a negative fair value is
recognised as a financial liability. A derivative is presented as a non-current asset or non-current liability if the remaining
maturity of the instrument is more than 12 months and it is not expected to be realised or settled within 12 months. Other
derivatives are presented as current assets or current liabilities.
Hedge accounting
The Group designates some derivative hedging instruments as cash flow hedges. At the inception of the hedge
relationship, the Group will document the relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedged item, along with its
risk management objectives and its strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. Furthermore, at the inception
of the hedge and on an ongoing basis, the Group will document the relative effectiveness of each hedging instrument.
Note 25 sets out the details of the fair values of the derivative instruments used for hedging purposes.
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flows hedges is
recognised in other comprehensive income. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately
in profit or loss, and is included in the 'other gains and losses' in note 9.
Amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity are reclassified to profit or
loss in the periods when the hedged item is recognised in profit and loss, in the same line of the income statement as
the recognised hedged item. However, when the forecast transaction that is hedged results in the recognition of a non-
financial asset or a non-financial liability, the gains and losses previously accumulated in equity are transferred from equity
and included in the initial measurement of the cost of the non-financial liability.
Hedge accounting is discontinued when the Group revokes the hedging relationship, the hedging instrument expires
or is sold, terminated, or exercised, or no longer qualifies for hedge accounting. Any gain or loss recognised in other
comprehensive income at that time is accumulated in equity and is recognised when the forecast transaction is ultimately
recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the
gain or loss accumulated in equity is recognised immediately in the statement of comprehensive income.
Trade and other receivables
These are valued at their nominal value (less accumulated impairment losses) as the time value of money is immaterial for
these current assets. Impairment losses are estimated at the year-end by reviewing amounts outstanding and assessing
the likelihood of recoverability.
Trade and other payables
Trade and other payables are valued at their nominal value as the time value of money is immaterial for these current
liabilities.
Provisions
A provision is recognised in the statement of financial position when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation
as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and the
obligation can be reliably measured. If the effect is material, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future
cash flows at a rate that reflects the current market assessments of the time value of money and where appropriate, the
risks specific to the obligation.
Dividends
Dividends to the Group's ordinary shareholders are recognised when they are declared. This is when they are approved by
the directors.
Earnings/(Loss) per share
Earnings per share is calculated on the weighted average number of shares in issue in respect of the current period and is
based on the profit attributable to the ordinary shareholders.
4. Critical accounting judgements and key source of estimation uncertainty
Judgements and estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting
estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgement in the process of applying the Group's accounting policies.
Although the estimates are based on management's best knowledge of the amount, events or actions, actual results may
ultimately differ from those estimates.
The key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting
year, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the
next financial year, are discussed below.
Business combinations
In accounting for the Stenham Transaction (being the acquisition of the property companies and management
companies detailed in note 26), the directors have been required to make a number of key judgements, namely the
acquisition date for the transaction, whether to account for the transaction as separate individual transactions or
as one transaction, the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired, and the fair value of actual and deferred consideration.
Having reviewed the characteristics of the Stenham Transaction, this has been accounted for as one transaction as the
directors consider that the components of the Stenham Transaction are part of a linked transaction in creating an integrated
property business with fully internalised management, business systems and strategic objectives. The acquired assets
were selected in order to fulfil a total return strategy for the business, comprising both dividend yield and growth in value,
and are viewed by management and the board as one business delivering returns from a European portfolio of commercial
properties. The fair value of assets and liabilities acquired and the fair value of consideration are shown in note 26.
Investment properties
As described above, the Group's investment properties are stated at estimated fair value, based on an independent
external appraisal. The valuation of the Group's property portfolio is inherently subjective due to a number of factors
including the individual nature of the property, its location and the expectation of future rentals. As a result, the valuations
placed on the property portfolio are subject to a degree of uncertainty and are made on the basis of assumptions that
may not prove to be accurate particularly in years of volatility or low transaction flow in the market. The estimated market
value may differ from the price at which the Group's assets could be sold at a particular time, since actual selling prices are
negotiated between willing buyers and sellers. As a result, if the assumptions prove to be false, actual results of operations
and realisation of net assets could differ from the estimates set forth in these financial statements, and the difference
could be significant.
Intangible assets
Management are required to measure the fair value of all assets and liabilities acquired as at the date of acquisition, including
any assets or liabilities which may not have been recognised in the underlying company balance sheets . In accordance
with IFRS 3 in accounting for the Stenham Transaction (further detailed in Note 26), management have ensured that all
assets and liabilities, including any intangible assets, have been identified. A best estimate of the fair value thereof has
been calculated as at the transaction date. The total balance of intangibles acquired as at the date of the transaction was
not considered material to the financial statements.
5. Operating segments
The Group is focused on real estate investment in well-developed, large economies with established real estate markets.
The investment portfolio is geographically diversified across Germany, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, and these
geographical locations provide the basis of the business segments identified by the Group. Each segment derives its
revenue from the rental of investment properties in the respective geographical regions.

outside of Bermuda, a full tax reconciliation of the relationship between the tax expense and accounting loss has not been included
in these financial statements. The Group suffers tax on rental income from its investment properties, after deduction for allowable
rental expenses. The rate of corporate income tax depends on the jurisdiction in which the property is situated being:
- Germany 15.85%;
- United Kingdom 20%; and
- Switzerland (depending on the district in which the property is situated). Average rate of 27.72%.

There were no changes made to the number of authorised shares of the Company during the year under review. Stenprop Limited has
one class of share; all shares rank equally and are fully paid.
Shareholders are referred to an announcement dated 24 October 2014 confirming that, for the purposes of changing the currency
denomination of the share capital of the Company, a GBP:EUR exchange rate of GBP1.00:EUR1.258 was used at Stenham Transaction date,
resulting in an authorised share capital of EUR1,258 comprising 1,000,000,000 common share of EUR0.000001258 each.
The Company has 272,236,146 (March 2014: 15,986,003) ordinary shares in issue at the reporting date which have a primary listing on BSX
and a secondary listing on AltX. On 2 October 2014 the Company completed the acquisition of the various property and management
companies in consideration for an issue of new ordinary shares in the Company. On 1 October 2014 and 2 October 2014 respectively,
218,794,917 and 14,121,892 new ordinary shares were issued on the BSX at an issue price of EUR1.37 per share as consideration for the
purchase of the property and management companies.
On 20 March 2015 the Company placed 23,333,334 ordinary shares with invited investors at an issue price of EUR1.50 per share.
Share based payment awards
At the time of the Stenham Transaction, the Company committed to issue 291,563 ordinary shares to directors (the estimated value
of which was EUR400,000 at the time) over a two-year period subject to those directors still being employed. Although this represents a
share based payment under IFRS2: Share based payments, this has been treated as a cost of the shares issued as part of the Stenprop
Transaction and has been classified as a liability. This treatment is not consistent with the Group's policy to recognise the fair value of
share based payments in a share based payment reserve over the vesting period; however, management considers the impact of the
difference in treatment to be immaterial.
Major shareholders
As at the financial year end there were 2,026 shareholders in the Company. In terms of the Companies Act 1981 of Bermuda, there is no
requirement for registered shareholders to disclose their beneficial shareholdings and accordingly the Company is only able to provide
disclosure on the shareholdings which have been voluntarily provided. Known shareholders holding in excess of 5% of the Company's
share capital are detailed below:

Straight-line unwind of purchase swaps
A further adjustment was made to the EPRA earnings attributable to shareholders and relates to the straight line unwind of the value as
at 1 April 2014 of the swap contracts in the property companies acquired. When the property companies were acquired by Stenprop with
effect from 1 April 2014, it also acquired the bank loans and swap contracts which were in place within these property companies. As a
result, Stenprop took over loans with higher swap interest rates than would have been the case had new loans and swaps been put in place
at 1 April 2014. To compensate for this, the value of the swap breaks costs was calculated at 1 April 2014 and the purchase consideration
for the property companies was reduced accordingly to reflect this liability.

15. Investment property
The fair value of the consolidated investment properties at 31 March 2015 was EUR695,196,554 (31 March 2014: EUR33,281,325).
The carrying amount of investment property is the fair value of the property as determined by registered independent appraisers having
an appropriate recognised professional qualification and recent experience in the location and category of the property being valued
("valuers").
The fair value of each of the properties for the year ended 31 March 2015 was assessed by the valuers in accordance with the RICS
standards and IFRS 13.
The valuations performed by the independent valuers are reviewed internally by senior management. This includes discussions of the
assumptions used by the external valuers, as well as a review of the resulting valuations.
Discussions of the valuations process and results are held between the senior management and the external valuers on a bi-annual basis.
The Audit Committee reviews and approves the valuation results.
The valuation techniques used are consistent with IFRS13 and use significant "unobservable" inputs. There have been no changes in
valuation techniques since the prior year.
There are interrelationships between all these unobservable inputs as they are determined by the market conditions. The existence of
an increase in more than one unobservable input would be to magnify the impact on the valuation. The impact on the valuation will be
mitigated by the interrelationship of two unobservable inputs moving in the opposite directions e.g. an increase in rent may be offset by
an increase in yield, resulting in no net impact on the valuation. Expected vacancy rates may impact the yield with higher vacancy rates
resulting in higher yield. All revenue is derived from the underlying tenancies given on the investment properties.
The key unobservable inputs used in the valuation of the Group's investment properties at 31 March 2015 are detailed in the table below:

On 1 October 2014 Stenprop completed the acquisition of 100% of the shares and shareholder loans in Bernina Property Holdings
Limited (Bernina). Bernina in turn owns 50% of the issued share capital and 100% of the shareholder loans of Elysion S.A., a company
incorporated in Luxembourg which is the beneficial owner of the Care Home portfolio. The remaining 50% of Elysion S.A. is owned by a
joint venture partner who manages the portfolio.
The acquired shareholder loans have attracted, and continue to attract, a 10% compounded interest rate since inception in 2007.
The outstanding shareholder loan which is wholly owned by Stenprop has been valued at the recoverable balance which is deemed equal
to the net assets of the joint venture excluding the shareholder loan. Over the six-month period to acquisition date on 1 October 2014,
the Group benefited from an uplift in the fair value of the joint venture to the value of EUR1,108,348 which is recognised in gain on acquisition
(note 26).

1. On 2 April 2014 the UK investment properties held by APF1 Limited ("APF1") were transferred to the fellow wholly-owned subsidiary
GGP1 Limited ("GGP1"). The APF1 bank facility of GBP10.4 million was repaid and replaced by a new GGP1 bank facility for GBP10.4 million
with the same interest rate of Libor plus a margin of 2.5%. The SWAP contracts were novated from APF1 to GGP1.
2. The Isabel Properties BV facility which expired on 31 December 2014 was refinanced on 30 January 2015. The Group was required to
inject EUR1 million into the investment in order to secure the facility which matures on 1 February 2022 . Under the terms of the facility
no repayments are required to be made (previously EUR460,000 per annum), and the interest rate has changed from EURIBOR plus a
margin of 3% to EURIBOR plus a margin of 2.5%.
3. On 24 March 2015, LPE Limited entered into a facility agreement to borrow GBP30,000,000. An interest rate of LIBOR plus a margin of
2% was agreed and the interest-only loan is repayable in full on 23 March 2020.
4. Subsequent to year-end, the Group refinanced the Davemount Properties Limited, Laxton Properties Limited and Normanton
Properties Limited facilities. The terms of the new facility are disclosed in subsequent events (note 32).
Exposure to credit, interest rate and currency risks arises in the normal course of the Group's business. Derivative financial instruments
are used to reduce exposure to fluctuations in interest rates (refer note 24).
24. Derivative financial instruments
In accordance with the terms of the borrowing arrangements and group policy, the Group has entered into interest rate swap agreements.
The interest rate swap agreements are entered into by the borrowing entities to convert the borrowings from floating to fixed interest
rates and are used to manage the interest rate profile of financial liabilities and eliminate future exposure to interest rate fluctuations.
It is the Group's policy that no economic trading in derivatives is undertaken.
The following table sets out the interest rate swap agreements at 31 March 2015. Prior to the acquisition of the property companies on
2 October 2014, the only existing swap agreements were held by the GGP1 Portfolio which is separately disclosed under existing swaps

26. Business combination – ("Stenham transaction")
Acquisition of property companies previously managed by Stenham, and associated management companies
On 1 October 2014 and 2 October 2014 the Company completed the acquisition of:
- Various property companies which collectively at the time of the transaction, held an interest in 45 properties in Germany, Switzerland
and the United Kingdom (the 'property companies');
- The Stenham Property management business;
- Various cash holding entities; and
- The external investment manager, Apex Hi (UK) Limited.
The total purchase consideration for the acquisition of the property companies was calculated with reference to the net asset value of
the property companies as at 31 March 2014 and amounted to EUR281.0 million. The purchase consideration for the Stenham Property
management business was EUR15.6 million and the purchase consideration for Apex Hi (UK) Limited was EUR3.8 million. The purchase
consideration for the cash holding subsidiaries was EUR18.4 million.
The purchase consideration for the acquisitions was funded by the issue of 232,916,809 new Stenprop ordinary shares to the value of
EUR318,791,449 on the Bermudian share register at an issue price of EUR1.37 per share, which was the Euro equivalent of the net asset value
per share of Stenprop as at 31 March 2014.
Deferred consideration which remains outstanding at year end, and which relates in relation to the acquisition of the Stenham property
management business is estimated to be EUR935,706 and relates to the vendor's right to receive a share of pre-existing exit and performance
fees on certain assets managed by the acquired business on behalf of third parties.

* Readers are referred to note 1 where the basis of preparation of the pro forma information is explained.
Notional goodwill of EUR19,374,000 arose as a result of the acquisition of the Stenham Property Holdings Limited and ApexHi (UK) Limited
(the management companies). The acquisition of the management companies was contingent on the completion of the purchase of
the property companies and was therefore considered a linked transaction in terms of IFRS 3: Business combinations. From a group
perspective, the fair value of the combined identifiable net assets on acquisition date exceeded the summation of the consideration
paid. A net gain on acquisition arose on acquisition date from the internalisation of management and the uplift in the value of the various
property companies in the six month period between the effective date of the sale (on which the assets were fair valued for purposes of
the transaction), and the acquisition date, No goodwill is therefore recognised in the Group accounts.
Intangible assets
Management have measured the fair value of all assets and liabilities acquired as at the date of acquisition, including any assets or
liabilities which may not have been recognised in the underlying company balance sheets. The value of any intangible assets acquired as
at the date of the transaction is considered immaterial and has not been recognised.

29. Financial risk management
The Group is exposed to a variety of financial risks including market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The overall risk management strategy
seeks to minimise the potential adverse effects on the Group's financial performance. Certain risk exposures are hedged via the use of
financial derivatives.
This note presents information about the Group's exposure to each of the above risks, the Group's objectives, policies and processes for
measuring and managing these risks, and the Group's management of capital. Further quantitative disclosures are included throughout
these audited financial statements where relevant. The Group's Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and
oversight of the Group's risk management framework.
The Board has established the Risk Committee which has assumed responsibility for developing and monitoring the Group's risk
management policies. The Risk Committee will participate in management's process of formulating and implementing the risk
management plan and will report on the plan adopted by management to the Board.
The objective of risk management is to identify, assess, manage and monitor the risks to which the business is exposed, including, but
not limited to, information technology risk. The Board will be responsible for ensuring the adoption of appropriate risk management
policies by management. The Group's risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Group, to
set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies are reviewed regularly
to reflect changes in market conditions and the Group's activities. The Board will also ensure that there are processes in place between
itself and management enabling complete, timely, relevant, accurate and accessible risk disclosure to shareholders.
To enable the Risk Committee to meet its responsibilities, the Risk Committee has adopted a charter which includes appropriate
standards and the implementation of systems of internal control and an effective risk-based internal audit, comprising policies,
procedures, systems and information to assist in:
- safeguarding assets and reducing the risk of loss, error, fraud and other irregularities;
- ensuring the accuracy and completeness of accounting records and reporting;
- preparing timely, reliable financial statements and information in compliance with relevant legislation and generally accepted
accounting policies and practices; and
- increasing the probability of anticipating unpredictable risk.
The Committee oversees how management monitors compliance with the Group's risk management policies and procedures and
reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to risks faced by the Group.
Credit risk
The Group's principal financial assets are cash and cash equivalents and trade and other receivables. The credit risk arising from deposits
with banks is managed through a policy of utilising only independently rated banks with acceptable credit ratings.
The credit quality of cash and cash equivalents can be assessed by reference to external credit ratings of the counterparty where the
account or deposit is placed. A summary of the credit ratings for the six banks in which 82% of the Group's cash is held are as follows:
31 March 31 March
2015 2014
- ABN AMRO Bank NV A n/a
- Barclays Private Clients International Limited A A
- Berliner Sparkasse AA n/a
- HSBC Bank plc. AA- n/a
- Santander UK plc. A A
- UBS AG A n/a
The directors are satisfied as to the credit worthiness of the banks where the remaining cash is held.
At the time of acquisition of a property, and from time to time thereafter, the Company reviews the quality of the contracted tenants
to ensure that the tenants meet acceptable covenants. Trade receivables are presented in the statement of financial position net of
allowances for doubtful receivables. An allowance for impairment is made where there is an indefinable loss event, which based on
previous experience, may give risk to a non-recovery of a receivable.
The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure at the reporting date.
At 31 March 2015 trade and other receivables and cash and cash equivalents amounts to EUR88,862,787 (March 2014: EUR1,928,449) as shown
in the statement of financial position.
Liquidity risk
Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash resources, the availability of funding through appropriate and
adequate credit lines and managing the ability of tenants to settle within lease obligations. The Group ensures, through the forecasting
and budgeting of cash requirements that adequate committed resources are available.
By its nature, the market for investment property is not immediately liquid. As a result of this illiquidity, the Group's ability to vary its
portfolio in a timely fashion and to receive a fair price in response to changes in economic and other conditions may be limited.
Furthermore, where the Group acquires investment properties for which there is not a readily available market, the Group's ability to deal
in any such investment or obtain reliable information about the value of such investment or risks to which such property investment is
exposed may be limited.
The Group's short-term liquidity risk is secured by the existence of cash balances, through the fact that rental income exceeds the
Group's cost structures and through ensuring that facilities are managed within debt covenants.
The following table details the Group's contractual maturity date of its financial liabilities. The table has been drawn up based on the
undiscounted contractual maturities of the financial liabilities, including interest that will accrue to those liabilities, except where the
Group is entitled and intends to repay the liability before its maturity. The discount column represents the possible future cash flows
included in the maturity analysis, such as future interest or potential payments that have not been included in the carrying amount of the
financial liability. The table also includes a reconciliation to the carrying value in the statement of financial position.

Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices.
Market risk comprises three types of risk: foreign currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk. The objective of market risk management
is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising returns to shareholders.
Investment in property is subject to varying degrees of risk. The main factors which affect the value of the investment in property include:
- changes in the general economic climate;
- local conditions in respective markets, such as oversupply, or a reduction in demand, for commercial space in a specific area;
- competition from other available properties; and
- government regulations, including planning, environmental and tax laws.
While a large number of these factors are outside the control of the management, market and property specific factors relevant to
maintain a sustainable income stream within the Group's yield parameters are considered as part of the initial due diligence. Properties
and tenant leases are actively managed.
Foreign currency risk
The Group's functional currency is Euros. Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument
will fluctuate because of changes in foreign currency or exchange rates. At the reporting date, the below table summarises the Group's
exposure to foreign currency risk in respect of assets and liabilites held in GBP (United Kingdom) and CHF (Switzerland).

Foreign currency sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analysis measures the impact on the Group's exposure in euros (based on a change in the reporting date spot rate) and
the impact on the Group's Euro profitability, given a simultaneous change in the foreign currencies to which the Group is exposed at the
reporting date.
A 10% strengthening in the euro exchange rate against the following currencies at year-end would have decreased equity and profits by
the amounts shown below. This analysis assumes that all other variables remain constant. For a 10% weakening of the Euro, there would
be an equal but opposite impact on the profit and equity and the balance would be positive.

Interest rate risk
The Group's interest rate risk is associated with cash and cash equivalents, on the one hand, and interest-bearing borrowings, on the
other. If the interest is variable, it presents the Group with a cash flow interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or
future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. As stated in note 24, borrowings
from credit institutions are protected against movements in interest rates. The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage its interest
rate exposure.
Market price risk
Market price risk is the risk that the Group is exposed to market risk on financial instruments that are valued at market prices. Specifically,
a risk that the ultimate selling price of such financial instruments may differ from their estimated fair values at the reporting dates. The
Group is exposed to price risk as a result of its investment in listed securities. The table below sets out the impact on the Group's euro
profitability of a 10% change in the market price of the listed securities in its portfolio.
A positive number below indicates an increase in profit and other equity following a 10% strengthening of market prices across the
portfolio. For a 10% fall in market prices there would be an equal and opposite impact on profit and the balance below would be negative.

Fair value hierarchy
The table below analyses the Group's financial instruments carried at fair value, by valuation method. The different levels have been
defined as follows:
Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices)
or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

There have been no significant transfers during the period under review.
Unobservable inputs
Unobservable inputs for Level 3 investment properties are disclosed in note 15.
Capital risk management
The capital structure of the Group consists of debt, which includes the borrowings disclosed in note 23, cash and cash equivalents and
equity attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Company, comprising issued capital, reserves and retained earnings as disclosed in
the statement of changes in equity. Stenprop's average loan to value ratio ("LTV") at 31 March 2015 was 53.8%, including joint ventures
and associates and the Group is not subject to any external capital requirements. The Group strategy is to maintain a debt to equity ratio
and LTV to ensure that property performance is translated into an enhanced return for shareholders while at the same time ensuring
that it will be able to continue as a going concern through changing market conditions. The directors are of the opinion that a 50% LTV in
respect of secured external borrowings is an appropriate target for the Group, given the current market conditions.
30. Related party transactions
Parties are considered related if one party has control, joint control or significant influence over the other party in making financial and
operating decisions.
Acquisition by Stenprop of the Stenham Property Portfolio ("Stenham Transaction")
It was the aligned and common interests amongst the parties which gave rise to the opportunity for the Stenham Transaction to be
structured.
The three principal aspects of the Stenham Transaction were:
- the sale to Stenprop by the various funds managed by Stenham Property of the interests in the 45 properties previously managed by
Stenham Property and owned by the various funds;
- the sale to Stenprop of Stenham Property by, firstly, Stenham Group Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Stenham Limited, 70.8%
of which at the time of the Stenham Transaction, was indirectly held by Peregrine Holdings Limited (which owned 29.14% of the issued
share capital in Stenprop at that time), and, secondly, Paul Arenson, who had an effective 10% interest in Stenham Property. The
aggregate consideration for the sale was EUR15,600,000 settled in Stenprop shares at the Issue Price. These shares comprised 4.6% of
the share capital of Stenprop at the time of the Stenham Transaction; and
- the sale to Stenprop of ApexHi UK Limited, being the company which previously managed the ApexHi Portfolio. The consideration for
the sale was EUR3,774,000 settled in Stenprop Shares at EUR1.37 ("the Issue Price"). These shares comprised 1.1% of the share capital of
Stenprop at the time of the Stenprop Transaction.
