NATURE OF BUSINESS

Arrowhead is a Real Estate Investment Trust ("REIT") holding a diverse portfolio of 157 commercial (office, 
retail and industrial) properties and through its 70% owned subsidiary Indluplace Properties Limited ("Indluplace"), 
95 residential properties comprising of 3 690 units with 9 469m(2) of retail space. The total portfolio is valued at R8,6 billion and 
located in all provinces of South Africa. Its main focus is on paying growing income returns to its investors. This is achieved through 
escalating rentals in terms of leases with satisfied tenants, satisfactory renewal of leases with existing tenants, renting of vacant 
space within the property portfolio, managing and reducing, where possible, costs associated with the property portfolio and by acquiring revenue 
enhancing properties. The company also owns an effective 11% interest in Dipula Income Fund Limited ("Dipula").

During the year under review Indluplace was listed as a REIT on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange ("JSE"). Indluplace is the 
only focused residential REIT on the JSE which owns a substantial residential property portfolio (including limited ground 
floor retail exposure attached to certain apartment blocks) from which it will pay growing distributions to its shareholders. 
Previously Arrowhead owned 100% shareholding in Indluplace. However pursuant to the listing of Indluplace, its shareholding reduced to 70%.

REVENUE      
                                                                                                                                                                                       
Revenue includes rental income and expenditure that is recoverable from tenants.      
                                                                                                              
The substantial increase in revenue is due to the full effect of the acquisitions concluded during the previous financial year, 
together with the partial impact of acquisitions concluded during the current financial year and annual escalations to existing leases. 
The acquisition of Vividend Income Fund Limited ("Vividend") is the main driver of this as it was consolidated into Arrowhead's results
from July 2014. Prior to this, Vividend was an investment and income received from Vividend was in the form of distributions received 
on units held and was recognised as income from listed securities.         
                                                                                                                                                             
As at 30 September 2014, Arrowhead owned 159 commercial and 30 residential properties. At 30 September 2015, Arrowhead 
owned 157 commercial properties (by value retail 43%, offices 45% and industrial 12%) and 95 residential properties. The average 
monthly rentals per m(2) per sector are R90 for retail, R98 for offices and R41 for industrial. Vacancies within the commercial 
portfolio have increased to 7,3% (2014: 6,3%). Vacancies are down from 8,2% at March 2015 to 7,3% at year end (retail 5,19%, 
office 10,38% and industrial 5,66%). The vacancy within the residential portfolio is 3,0%. 
11% of the commercial portfolio by revenue and 24% of the office portfolio is let to government and parastatal tenants.      
During the year 149 662 m(2) of gross lettable area ("GLA") in the commercial portfolio expired of which 64,0% was renewed. Rental 
escalations of 8,4% have been achieved on lease renewals across the commercial portfolio and the average lease profile across the 
portfolio has increased to 3,73 years.

LISTED SECURITIES INCOME

Listed securities income comprise income received on units held in Dipula. The reduction in listed securities income is as a 
result of Vividend having become a subsidiary. In prior years the company recognised anticipated distributions on linked units 
held in listed property loan stock companies. In this financial year, Arrowhead has recognised the anticipated dividends in the 
form of an adjustment in the distributable earnings reconciliation at year end to match the anticipated income of the distribution 
to the period to which the distribution relates.

PROPERTY EXPENSES

Municipal expenses have increased in line with the increased revenue. The gross cost to income ratio achieved has improved marginally
from 35% to 34% with the bulk of the recoverable expenditure being recovered.

The largest contributor to administrative expenses is salaries, which has increased as a result of the additional staff complement 
in line with the enlarged portfolio. The decrease in professional fees was due to the once off costs incurred in the acquisition of
Vividend in the prior financial year.

to participants of both the Arrowhead Unit Purchase Trust and the Indluplace Share Purchase and Option Scheme. The loans incur interest 
at rates applicable to each scheme.

Finance charges increased from R115,0 million to R219,7 million as the full effects of the secured financial liabilities of Vividend's 
interest bearing borrowings came into effect in the current financial year.

DEBENTURE INTEREST

During the year under review, Arrowhead's REIT conversion process was successfully completed and the company's linked units were delinked on the JSE. 
The new financial instruments were listed on the JSE on 19 July 2015 and traded as shares in the company. As a result, the debenture interest in 
the statement of comprehensive income only represents two quarterly distributions. The third quarter was distributed as a dividend under the new 
REIT structure as ordinary shares and was accounted for under the statement of changes in equity.

INVESTMENT PROPERTIES

The company owns a commercial portfolio of 157 retail, industrial and office properties, and 95 residential properties held indirectly 
through Indluplace, valued at R8,6 billion, represented amongst all of the provinces. The number of commercial properties has increased

Assuming a gearing ratio on the portfolio of 28% and an annual effective interest rate of 9% the total growth in distributable 
income would grow to 8,5%.

LOANS TO PARTICIPANTS OF GROUP SHARE PURCHASE OPTION SCHEMES

The loans to the participants of both the Arrowhead and Indluplace share option schemes increased from R143,0 million to R433,9 million. 
Loans to the value of R303,2 million were advanced to participants of the loan purchase schemes. The recipients include the executive directors 
and staff of Arrowhead and Indluplace. The loans bear interest at the company's effective rate of borrowings (in respect of Arrowhead) and bear 
interest at a rate equal to the distribution of the company (in respect of Indluplace) and are secured by a cession of the shares.

TRADE AND OTHER RECEIVABLES

Trade receivables, deposits, other receivables and payments in advance increased from R31,3 million to R61,1 million. The balance outstanding 
has increased from the prior year as a result of the enlarged property portfolio. Bad debts amounting to R2,8 million have been written off during 
the year, whilst the provision for bad debt increased from R6,7 million to R6,9 million. The combined amounts are less than 1% of revenue.

SECURED FINANCIAL LIABILITIES

The loans of R2,4 billion (2014: R2,3 billion) measured against investment properties of R8,6 billion (2014: R7,0 billion) represents a loan to 
value of 27,9% (2014: 33,0%). The interest rate swaps of R1,8 billion and the fixed rate loan of R387 million results in interest on R2,2 billion 
of the total R2,4 billion being fixed. This equates to 90% of the total borrowings. Excess funds are placed in an access facility to reduce the 
overall interest charge. The effective interest rate for the year ended 30 September 2015 was 8,96% (2014: 8,61%).

(Excluding loan initiation fees and fair value adjustments on swaps)
Arrowhead has further entered into interest rate swaps to hedge its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates of its debt as follows:

-   an interest rate swap over R140 million until 15 August 2017;
-   an interest rate swap over R35 million until 15 August 2017; 
-   an interest rate swap over R189 million until 31 May 2018;

-   an interest rate swap over R595 million until 2 September 2019.

PROSPECTS

During the 2016 financial year the company intends to transfer 101 properties valued at R1,9 billion to a separate subsidiary. It proposes 
to list the subsidiary on the JSE in or about March 2016. After this transaction, Arrowhead (excluding its subsidiaries) will 
own 56 properties (562 993m(2)) valued at R5,5 billion with a vacancy of 5,0% at an average property value of R97 million. 
The average length of leases will be just under 4 years and 9% will be let to Government. The new company will have its own dedicated and 
incentivised management team who will focus on growing the portfolio in the company on an accretive basis with properties valued at under 
R50 million per property which Arrowhead is no longer acquiring and in which market there are significant opportunities.

PROJECTED 2016 DISTRIBUTION PER COMBINED A AND B SHARES

The forecast excludes the effects of any acquisitions (excluding Cleary Park) that will be made during the year as well as the letting of 
any vacant space. It also assumes that all leases expiring during the year will be renewed other than when the company has information to 
the contrary. For the 2016 financial year the company is projected to produce distribution growth of between 8% and 10% per combined A and B share. 
The projections have not been reviewed or reported on by Grant Thornton Johannesburg Partnership.

Record date                                                                                         Friday, 11 December   
Payment date (cash dividend deposited or cheques posted to certificated shareholders on or about)   Monday, 14 December   

Share certificates may not be dematerialised or rematerialised between Monday, 7 December 2015 and Friday 11 December 2015, both days inclusive.

In accordance with Arrowhead's status as a REIT, shareholders are advised that the distributions meet 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 shares 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 shareholders 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 shareholders, provided that the South African resident shareholders provided the following forms to their 
Central Securities Depository Participant ("CSDP") or broker, as the case may be, in respect of uncertificated shares, or the company, 
in respect of certificated shares:

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. Shareholders 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 shareholders 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 shareholders. Assuming dividend withholding tax will be withheld at a rate 
of 15%, the net dividend amount due to non-resident shareholders is 16.150000 cents per A share and 16.150000 cents per B share. A reduced dividend withholding 
rate in terms of the applicable DTA, may only be relied on if the non-resident shareholder has provided the following forms to their CSDP or broker, as the 
case may be, in respect of uncertificated shares, or the company, in respect of certificated shares:

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 shareholders 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.

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

* During the current year the debenture interest paid has been excluded from headline earnings as the linked units have been de-linked resulting 
  in disclosure of earnings per share compared to earnings per unit holder in the prior year. This resulted in a significant decrease in the basic
