UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED 31 MARCH 2016 (the “financial
statements”)
DIRECTORS’ COMMENTARY
NATURE OF THE BUSINESS
Delta Africa is a pan African property income fund focussing on African real estate assets (excluding South Africa), underpinned
by predominantly US Dollar denominated medium to long term leases with high quality tenants delivering sustainable income.
Listed in July 2014, the Company holds dual primary listings on the Stock Exchange of Mauritius (“SEM”) as well as the main board
of the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (“JSE”).
The Company and its subsidiaries (“Group”) have continued its expansion plans across the continent with assets based in
Mozambique, Morocco, Zambia and more recently Mauritius. The recently announced merger with the The Pivotal Fund Limited’s
(“Pivotal”) planned African fund will result in further geographical expansion in Kenya and Nigeria (see below for additional
details).
The Group’s strategy remains to expand its property portfolio throughout targeted countries in Africa with assets that will provide
sustainable long term, US Dollar based income from high quality tenants with a core focus on protecting shareholder value and
dividend yield.
REVIEW
During the period, the Company has successfully raised capital of US$28.6 million, through the issue of 16 952 091 shares at an
issue price of US$1.70 per share. In line with it’s commitment to protect shareholder value, the Company issued all shares at a
premium to net asset value per share. On 6 April 2016, the Company issued an additional 4 738 220 shares at an issue price of
US$1.70 per share, raising an additional US$8.0 million. The proceeds of these issuances were utilised to settle the equity bridge
facilities and to acquire additional assets.
On 14 March 2016, the Company paid its third distribution of 6.17 US$ cents per share (for the six month period ended 31
December 2015). The Company maintains its distribution growth forecast of between 3% and 6% on the previous year’s full year
distribution of 11.28 US$ cents per share.
On 11 February 2016, Investec Bank dispersed a long term facility of US$ 51.2 million to Freedom Property Fund, a subsidiary of
the Company owning Anfa Place Shopping Centre in Morocco. The loan was the first entry into the Moroccan market by Investec
Bank. The loan, denominated in Euro’s (60%) and US Dollars (40%) (based on the currency weighting of the Moroccan Dirham),
has secured a lower cost of borrowing attached to the hard currencies versus the higher Moroccan Dirham based lending rate.
The proceeds of the loan have been utilised to settle the vendor loan, which arose on the acquisition of the Moroccan property.
This refinance transaction has resulted in a significant reduction of the 8.9% borrowing costs associated with the vendor loan to
the all-in interest rate of 5.52% (of which 65% is at a fixed interest rate).
The Group’s loan to value ratio at 31 March 2016 was 51.7%, up from the 45.2% reported in June 2015. Following the issue of
shares on 6 April 2016, the Company settled an additional US$7.2 million of debt resulting in a revised loan to value of 49.2% as
at 7 April 2016. In line with the Group’s treasury policy, the Group has secured fixed interest rates on 73% of the interest rate
exposure on property loans.

Details of acquisitions transferred by 31 March 2016
Zimpeto Square, which transferred to the Group in October 2015, is a 4,764m2 strip mall in Maputo, Mozambique. The mall has
achieved exceptional trading densities, with no vacancies and minimal arrears. The gross asset value of the centre is US$ 11.0
million as at 31 December 2015 (independently valued by JLL).
The 50% stake in Makuba Mall in Kitwe, Zambia transferred on 1 December 2015. The mall provides 28,235m2 of GLA and is valued
at US$63.1 million (US$ 31.6 million attributable to the Group). The mall is anchored by Shoprite, Game and Pick ‘n Pay. Other
notable tenants include Mr Price, Woolworths, Spur, Barclays and FNB.
Kafubu Mall based in Ndola, Zambia provides 11,964m2 of GLA, is valued at US$17.4 million and is anchored by Shoprite. Other
notable tenants include Spur and OK Furniture. The gross asset value of the Group’s 50% stake in the mall is US$8.8 million.
Both Zambian malls are the dominant retail offerings in their respective catchment areas. Both these malls are managed by Heriot
Properties. The extensive property management experience of Heriot Properties in Zambia has resulted in the malls being
exceptionally well managed, with negligible vacancies and arrears.
The Barclays House Building in Ebene, Mauritius transferred on 22 February 2016. The building houses the corporate head office
for Barclays in Mauritius and has twelve years remaining on the lease. The 7,700m2 building was acquired for Rs470 million
(approximately US$13.5 million). Although the leases are denominated in Mauritian Rupees, the Group has hedged the currency
exposure to the US$ for a period of three years, the cost of which has been factored into the initial acquisition yield.
Details of acquisitions in the process being transferred
The Vale accommodation compound in Tete, Mozambique is the premier accommodation offering in the area and provides 83 x
three bedroom units as well as 40 x two bedroom apartments. The compound includes sporting and entertainment facilities for
the tenants. Vale and Barloworld fully occupy all the units on five and three year leases respectively. The gross asset value of the
compound has recently been independently valued at US$35.7 million. The transfer of the property, at a cost US$33.1 million, will
conclude on the date of subdivision of the property, however the effective date of the transaction was 1 December 2015.
The Bollore/Plexus warehouse compound in Pemba, Mozambique spanning 6,374m2 provides seven individual warehouses and
office space to tenants. In addition to meeting Delta’s requirements for US$ based leases with strong counter parties, this
property’s location, being at the base of the Anadarko/ENI pier in Pemba harbour, provides the Group with opportunity to
redevelop the site at a later stage. The acquisition price of the property is US$ 8.6 million (independently valued by JLL) and is
expected to transfer in May 2016.
Phase I of the Buffalo Mall in Naivasha, Kenya is a 6,167m2 retail, commercial and entertainment centre development, anchored
by Tuskys. The 45.5% stake in the asset provides the Group with its initial acquisition in the Kenyan market. The asset has recently
been valued at US$ 13.4 million, which includes the land and development rights for Phase II of the mall, with a maximum of
14,000m2 additional GLA.
The Wings Office Towers in Lagos, Nigeria is a 27,812m2 twin towered office complex. The asset is expected transfer on 1
September 2016 (being the estimated date of completion). The building is anchored by Oando Oil PLC, with the balance of the
property covered by a two year rental guarantee by the seller.
Results
Profit for the nine months to 31 March 2016 amounted to US$ 22.1 million, compared to a US$ 4.9 million loss for the comparative
nine months to 31 March 2015.
Net operating expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased to 18.0% for the nine months to 31 March 2016 from the 25.0%
reported in the prior financial year. This decline is mainly caused by the acquisition of assets under triple net leases at the end of
the 2015 financial year.
The weighted average cost of debt is currently 6.88% versus 6.94% at 30 June 2015. The recent financing transactions concluded
in February 2016 (being the refinance of the Anfa Place Shopping Centre and new finance for Barclays House) and December 2015
(being the finance for the Makuba and Kafubu Malls in Zambia), has significantly reduced the Company’s cost of funding with
weighted average cost of debt for the month of March being 5.79%.
Foreign currency movements
Although the Group operates primarily in US Dollars, operations in various countries incur local costs and taxes denominated in
local currencies. The Group’s only exposure to foreign currency fluctuations in terms of lease income is to the Moroccan Dirham
(which is weighted on the Euro and US Dollar at a rate of 60%:40% respectively).
The results include the impact of the devaluation of the Mozambique Meticais, which has depreciated 32.7% against the US Dollar
from MZN38.05:US$1 in June 2015 to MZN50.50:US$1 by the end of March 2016. Although the movement in the currency does
not impact operating profits (as all leases and borrowing costs are US$ based), it does provide for large revaluation movement as
can be seen in the revaluation of the properties, unrealised foreign exchange movements and the foreign currency translation
reserve.
The net impact of foreign currency movement on the Company is as follows:
Net foreign currency impact
Movement in Foreign Currency Translation Reserve (20 884 479)
Movement in Fair Value of Property (excluding base currency valuation movements) 30 005 207
Unrealised foreign currency losses (11 464 653)
Realised foreign currency gains 937 673
Net foreign currency impact (1 406 252)

Note
1: The increased vacancies relates to the strategic exit of an underperforming original tenant which did not provide the optimal tenant mix for the centre. A new
internationally recognised tenant has been sourced and final negotiations are underway.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Shareholders are referred to the announcement dated 17 November 2015 and the Circular and Revised Listing Particulars
posted on 4 April 2016, informing the market that Delta Africa and Pivotal, a JSE listed development focused investment fund,
formed a new strategic relationship that will result (subject to shareholder approval at the meeting scheduled for 6 May 2016) in
Pivotal’s African assets being merged into the Company, which will be renamed Mara Delta Property Holdings Limited (Mara
Delta). Mara Delta will retain its two primary listings on the JSE and the SEM. The existing asset management agreement
between Delta Africa and Freedom Asset Management Limited will be terminated in favour of the internalisation of Delta
Africa’s asset management function and associated management fee.
In terms of the framework agreement entered into between Delta Africa and Pivotal, Delta Africa will acquire Pivotal’s entire
45.5% shareholding in Buffalo Mall Naivasha Limited, a Kenyan retail, commercial and entertainment centre development. The
purchase consideration which amounts to US$ 4.1 million, will be settled through the issue of new Delta Africa ordinary shares to
Pivotal at US$ 1.70 a share. Transfer is expected to take place in May 2016.
In addition, Delta Africa will also acquire Pivotal’s entire shareholding in SB Wings Development Limited (“SB Wings”), a Mauritian
company with a 37.1% shareholding in Oando Wings Development Limited (“Oando Wings”) as its sole asset. Oando Wings is
currently undertaking an office development in Lagos, Nigeria. The transfer of the interest in SB Wings is due to take place on
completion of the development, expected in September 2016.
The purchase consideration, including all amounts owed by SB Wings to Pivotal, amounts to
US$ 73.2 million and will also be settled through the issue of new Delta Africa ordinary shares to Pivotal.
As part of the agreement, Abland Africa Limited, Carlisle Property Holdings Limited and the Mara Group will be appointed as
promoters to source investment and development opportunities for Mara Delta across the continent.
Delta and Pivotal will add further depth and experience to the Board of Mara Delta with the intention to appoint Jackie van
Niekerk, Dave Savage and Ashish J. Thakkar as non-executive directors after the closing date. Peter Todd will remain as the lead
independent non-executive director to the Board.
The conclusion of the strategic framework agreement is subject to inter alia, Delta Africa shareholder approval. Once concluded,
Pivotal will be a substantial shareholder with Board representation in Delta Africa.
The recent developments in Mozambique concerning the suspension of IMF loans could severely impact the country.
The Group will continue to monitor the situation closely and where possible take appropriate actions to further
mitigate risks.
Other than the items mentioned, no material events have occurred since the reporting date.
