Acquisitions
Investment in Cyprus
On 24 July 2015, the Group acquired an effective 48.6% interest in ITTL Trade & Tourist Leisure Park Plc, the owner of the Shacolas Emporium Park, and an
effective 48.5% interest in Woolworth Commercial Centre Plc, the owner of The Mall of Engomi. The properties are located in Nicosia, the capital city of
Cyprus, and were acquired by Atterbury Cyprus Limited ("Atterbury Cyprus") in which Attacq has a 48.8% shareholding. Atterbury Europe B.V. ("Atterbury
Europe"), together with minorities, owns the balance of the shareholding in Atterbury Cyprus.
The 47 000 m2 Shacolas Emporium Park comprises the 27 000 m2 Mall of Cyprus and the 20 000 m2 Ikea store, and attracts over five million shoppers annually.
The Mall of Engomi is a 13 600 m2 retail centre located in the west of Nicosia and attracts more than one and a half million shoppers annually. Both
centres are trading well with low vacancies and provide expansion opportunities. Attacq's share of the acquisition consideration was R670.6 million and the
total investment, both equity and loan accounts, is valued at R892.0 million as at 30 June 2016.
Investment in Serbia
Effective 1 December 2015, the Group, jointly with Atterbury Europe, acquired a 33.0% shareholding in BreAtt B.V. ("BreAtt"), the owner of a portfolio of
five operational Serbian retail properties with a gross value of R3.1 billion. The seller, Balkans Real Estate B.V. ("BRE"), retained a 67.0% shareholding
in BreAtt. Subsequent to the acquisition, BreAtt acquired an operational property with a further property planned to be acquired during the course of the
2016 calendar year. The portfolio was acquired at a euro yield in excess of 8.0% and Attacq's total investment is valued at R367.1 million as at
30 June 2016. Attacq's effective shareholding in BreAtt increased from 8.3% to 12.5% post year end as detailed under subsequent events below.
Serbia's largest mall, the 47 363 m2 Usce Shopping Centre, located in the capital city Belgrade, forms part of the investment portfolio. Belgrade is a city
of close to two million people and currently has only two large shopping malls. Usce Shopping Centre, with a diverse retail offering via its 150 stores,
dominates the local market and averages over one million shoppers per month.
In addition to the operational properties acquired, Atterbury Serbia and BRE have jointly invested EUR40.0 million into a development fund which is to
undertake retail developments in Serbia and neighbouring countries. BreAtt is in the advanced stages of selecting development opportunities for the
investment of these funds.
Investment in Nigeria
The Group acquired a 25.0% shareholding in Ikeja City Mall located in Lagos, Nigeria with the balance of 75.0% held by Hyprop Investments Limited
("Hyprop"). The effective date of the transaction was 17 November 2015, at a purchase consideration equivalent to R325.6 million. As at 30 June 2016, the
total investment was valued at R326.7 million.
The 22 349 m2 Ikeja City Mall receives in excess of seven and a half million shoppers per annum and was acquired at a US dollar yield in excess of 8.0%.
Ikeja City Mall was acquired as part of a strategy by Attacq, Hyprop and AttAfrica Limited ("AttAfrica") to create a portfolio of dominant malls in large
cities across Africa.
Disposals
Mauritian assets
Effective 27 November 2015, the Group disposed of a 34.9% shareholding in Bagaprop Limited and a 49.9% interest in Mall of Mauritius at Bagatelle Limited.
The two entities were the owners of the Bagatelle Mall in Mauritius and the land and developments surrounding the Bagatelle Mall. These investments were
held via Attacq's 85.0% (80.0% as at 30 June 2015) subsidiary, Atterbury Mauritius Consortium Proprietary Limited ("AMC"). Attacq completed the exit from
its Mauritius assets by disposing of its shareholding in AMC to Atterbury Property Holdings Proprietary Limited ("Atterbury"). Total cash funds received by
Attacq from the exit of these assets amounted to R676.4 million, realising a profit of R145.0 million, which is included in other income.
The Club Retail Park Proprietary Limited ("The Club")
Atterbury Property Fund Proprietary Limited acquired Attacq's 32.0% interest in The Club for a purchase consideration of R11.6 million plus settlement of
the Attacq loan accounts. The effective date of the transaction was 30 June 2016. The total proceeds were received during July 2016.
50.0% undivided share in Great Westerford
Attacq's 50.0% undivided share in the Great Westerford property was sold to The Leaf Property Fund Trust for an amount of R292.0 million. The property was
transferred on 25 April 2016.
Atterbury
Effective 30 June 2016, Attacq disposed of its remaining 10.0% shareholding in Atterbury for a purchase consideration of R90.0 million. A profit of
R33.3 million was realised which is included in other income.
MAS Real Estate Inc. ("MAS") shares
On 8 April 2016, Attacq disposed of over nine million MAS shares at R22.00 per share, resulting in proceeds of R200.0 million. As a result of this disposal
and Attacq electing not to participate in a capital raise undertaken by MAS, Attacq's shareholding in MAS at 30 June 2016, decreased to 41.4% (2015: 45.3%).
Less significant disposals
The Group disposed of its 25.0% shareholding in Atterbury Mauritius Limited, which held a minority interest in the asset manager of the Bagatelle Precinct
for R8.0 million as well as its effective 30.0% interest in The Pavilion, a student residential accommodation property located in Birmingham, UK, for
R34.9 million.
Amendment of contractual arrangements
Waterfall
Attacq has taken the strategic decision to accelerate the internalisation of the Waterfall development management function to enable Attacq to take full
control of the strategic planning, marketing and roll-out of the Waterfall development. As such, Attacq and Atterbury have agreed to amend the development
management agreement to enable Attacq to undertake the Waterfall developments internally and not to await the expiry of Atterbury's exclusivity as
developer on 31 January 2018. Attacq made a prepayment of R39.5 million to Atterbury relating to current projects that Atterbury will continue to manage
until finalisation of the developments.
Financial position
Investment properties
As per the table below, investment properties increased by 11.5% to R18.0 billion which represents 65.3% (2015: 69.5%) of the total assets of the Group.
The amount excludes investment properties currently disclosed as non-current assets held for sale.

The Mall of Africa, which is centrally located in Gauteng, opened on 28 April 2016. The success of the Mall is evident in the 3.5 million shoppers who have
visited in the three months ended July 2016. National retail tenants have indicated that their Mall of Africa branch trades in the top five of their South
African portfolio. At the SACSC 20th Annual Congress, the Mall won the Spectrum Award for the best retail development in the category of new regional and
super-regional shopping centres above 20 000 m2.

Development rights
Development rights relate to the contractual rights held by Attacq Waterfall Investment Company Proprietary Limited ("AWIC") to develop certain land
parcels in Waterfall. These rights form a material element of the overall land valuation. As at 30 June 2016, 1.3 million m2 (2015: 1.4 million m2) of
Waterfall's total bulk of 1.9 million m2 (2015: 1.8 million m2) remains available for development.
The reasons for the reduction in value of development rights from R1.5 billion to R1.1 billion relate to a more conservative outlook on the future roll-out
period of potential developments and the reclassification of land parcels 3 and 24 to non-current assets held for sale. In the current financial year, the
two land parcels had a combined value of R114.7 million (2015: R106.0 million).
Infrastructure and services
The net growth in infrastructure and services is as a result of the costs incurred to service the Waterfall land in preparation for the development of
Waterfall City and future developments. Although this asset generated no cash return, it creates the platform for future economic benefits from top
structure developments. At June 2016, Attacq held 783 000 m2 of serviced land which can be rolled out without any further infrastructure spend.
Newly secured developments
Attacq has taken the initiative to develop a speculative office building, named Gateway Building West, linked to The Mall of Africa in Waterfall City.
The anticipated date of completion is August 2017, with a primary GLA of 13 891 m2.
Best performing property fund in the office sector
Attacq won the MSCI award for the best performing office portfolio for their three-year annualised total return to December 2015. The Group's three-year
return was 16.5% versus a benchmark 12.9%. The out-performance is mainly attributable to excellent capital growth of the assets.
Investments in and loans to associates
MAS
Attacq's equity accounted investment in MAS increased from R2.2 billion as at 30 June 2015, to R2.7 billion as at 30 June 2016.
In March 2016, the agterskot owing by MAS in respect of the disposal of the Karoo Investment Fund S.C.A. SICAV-SIF ("Karoo") to MAS in December 2013
realised R479.8 million (EUR28.1 million). Attacq's shareholding increased by 2.0% at the time, with 21.3 million new MAS shares being issued to Attacq in
consideration for the agterskot. In the prior year, the agterskot was included under other financial assets, but has now been reclassified under investment
in associates.
Subsequent to the receipt of the agterskot shares, Attacq sold over nine million MAS shares and MAS undertook a R500.0 million capital raising in which
Attacq did not participate, resulting in Attacq's shareholding in MAS decreasing to 41.4% as at year end (2015: 45.3%).
In March 2016, MAS invested EUR20.0 million for a 40.0% stake in a joint venture with Prime Kapital Limited ("Prime Kapital"), a real estate development and
investment business established by Martin Slabbert and Victor Seminonov and backed by an experienced team with a proven track record. The joint venture
will provide MAS with access to high growth in euro denominated jurisdictions and will focus on the development and redevelopment of commercial real assets
in CEE to create a high quality portfolio of assets in dominant locations.
MAS' adjusted NAVPS decreased by 5.0% from 121.2 euro cents as at 30 June 2015 to 115.1 euro cents as at 30 June 2016. Foreign exchange losses of
EUR25.3 million, or 7.3 euro cents per share, largely attributable to the impact of the Brexit outcome were recognised by MAS in the current year.
From a development perspective, phase one of MAS' New Waverley development has progressed well and the Adagio Hotel and its related retail component is
expected to be completed at the end of this calendar year. Phase two is in the final stages of design preparation. The CEE portfolio is expected to
commence with development in the new calendar year.
AttAfrica
Africa continues to experience challenging economic conditions given the continued strength of the US dollar, depressed commodity and oil prices and lack
of stability in power supply. The dominant malls in the portfolio, notably Manda Hill Mall, Zambia and Accra Mall, Ghana, have defensive qualities and
continue to trade relatively well given the challenging operating environment. Overall portfolio vacancies at 30 June 2016 were 4.0%.
At year end, the Group's investment in AttAfrica, being the shareholder loan to AttAfrica, amounted to R877.4 million (2015: R599.4 million). Achimota Mall
in Accra, Ghana was completed in November 2015, and Kumasi City Mall, Ghana, the only remaining development under construction, has an expected completion
date of April 2017. During the year under review, the Group recognised an impairment on the loan account of R58.3 million which is included in operating and
other expenses. The impairment is due to the lower in-country investment properties valuations.
At 30 June 2016, AttAfrica's underlying assets were as follows:
Property Location GLA (m2) AttAfrica Attacq's
ownership effective
% interest

Completed buildings

Manda Hill Mall Lusaka, Zambia 40 561 50 15.6
Development under construction
Kumasi City Mall Kumasi, Ghana 18 000* 75 23.4
* Proposed size
Other financial assets
The decrease in other financial assets is as a result of the settlement of the Karoo agterskot as well as the settlement of the loan account to Atterbury
for the acquisition of their 20.0% undivided share in the Mall of Africa. The amount due by Atterbury in respect of 18.8% of the Mall was settled after the
completion of the Mall, with the balance of 1.2% to be settled based on the 30 June 2017 fair market value of the Mall, as determined by an external
independent valuer.
Other investments
Attacq's 19.9% interest in Stenham European Shopping Centre Fund Limited, the owner of the Nova Eventis regional shopping centre in Leipzig, Germany is
included in other investments at a value of R380.8 million (2015: R344.3 million).
On 30 June 2016, Attacq disposed of its 10.0% interest in Atterbury for a consideration of R90.0 million.
Non-current assets held for sale
Waterfall industrial properties
At year end, the following eight completed industrial properties were classified as non-current assets held for sale: Angel Shack, Cummins (50.0% undivided
share), Drager, Hilti, Medtronic, Servest, Stryker and Westcon. Equites Property Fund Limited ("Equites") and Attacq have established a joint venture in
respect of a portfolio of industrial properties at Waterfall with effect from 1 July 2016. Equites have subscribed for an 80.0% shareholding in EA
Waterfall Logistics JV Proprietary Limited ("EAJV") the acquirer of the portfolio, for a subscription consideration of R292.7 million payable on the
transfer of the portfolio into EAJV. Attacq will hold the remaining 20.0% of EAJV.
Waterfall land parcel 24 and land parcel 3
Attacq has entered into an agreement for the disposal of its development rights in respect of land parcel 24, Waterfall, on loan account for R86.4 million
to a new joint venture company, Winter Robin Investments 26 Proprietary Limited ("WRI"). The shareholding in WRI is 20.0% held by Attacq and 80.0% held by
Sanlam Properties (a division of Sanlam Life Insurance Limited) ("Sanlam Properties"). Attacq has the right to increase its shareholding in WRI to 50.0%.
As part of the transaction, WRI acquired additional light industrial development rights from one of the Mia affiliate companies for R371.6 million. Attacq
advanced R16.9 million on loan account to WRI to fund the acquisition and the balance of the acquisition was funded by Sanlam Properties on loan account.
After conclusion of the transaction, the total development rights in WRI equate to approximately 114.0 hectares.
Attacq, in addition, has contracted to dispose of its 15 000 m2 retail development rights on land parcel 3 to a separate joint venture company with Sanlam
Properties titled AWIC Pocket 3 JVCO Proprietary Limited ("P3JV"). Attacq disposed of the retail rights for R28.3 million and the amount remains
outstanding on loan account. P3JV also acquired the remaining retail development rights on the same land parcel from the Mia affiliate company for
R28.3 million. Attacq and Sanlam Properties each hold 50.0% in P3JV.
Brooklyn Bridge Office Park
Attacq management considers Brooklyn Bridge Office Park to no longer be a core asset. At year end, this property is classified as a non-current asset held
for sale.
Sale of 20.0% undivided share in Andringa Walk
Attacq entered into a sale agreement with the existing co-owner of Eikestad Mall and Mill Square, Key Capital Holdings Proprietary Limited, in which it
intends to sell a 20.0% undivided share in Andringa Walk for an amount of R37.0 million. The effective date of the sale transaction is 1 July 2016. The
sale transaction was entered into to create alignment on the whole Eikestad precinct in which Attacq Retail Fund Proprietary Limited ("ARF") currently
holds 80.0% in Eikestad Mall and Mill Square and 100.0% in Andringa Walk. ARF is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Attacq Ltd.
Borrowings
Total net interest-bearing borrowings increased by 30.2% compared with 30 June 2015, due to additional debt being incurred to fund the growing property
portfolio.
Gearing, calculated as total interest-bearing debt less cash on hand as a percentage of total assets, increased from 36.3% as at 30 June 2015, to 39.9% as
at 30 June 2016. In order to mitigate interest rate risk, approximately R11.0 billion or 79.5% of total committed facilities as at 30 June 2016
(2015: R8.9 billion or 74.7%) were hedged by way of fixed interest rate loans and interest rate swaps. This is well within the 70.0% minimum interest hedge
policy set by the Attacq board. The weighted average cost of funding increased marginally over the last 12 months to 9.2% (2015: 9.0%).
Approximately 8.8% (R1.0 billion) of the Group's debt is due for repayment over the next 12 months, which includes R747.0 million relating to non-current
assets held for sale. Similarly, 5.6% of the Group's interest rate swaps or fixed rate loans mature over the same period.
Financial performance
Profit before taxation
Net rental income
Net rental income, which includes straight-line lease income adjustments, increased by 17.2% compared to the prior year. The net rental income was
positively impacted by the completion of eight buildings in the current reporting period (2015: 13 buildings). The weighted average lease expiry profile is
6.7 years as at 30 June 2016 (2015: 7.3 years). The 2016 rental income includes two months' income for the Mall which opened on 28 April 2016.
Property expenses as a percentage of gross rental income increased due to an increase in municipal charges which were not fully recovered from tenants as
well as once-off costs relating to the Mall. Municipal charges of R345.7 million are included in the total property expenses of R502.8 million.
Vacancies
Overall portfolio vacancies, measured in terms of GLA, decreased by 6 501 m2 compared to 30 June 2015. This decrease relates primarily to Newtown Junction,
Lynnwood Bridge Phase III (Kaaimans and Bloukrans Offices) and Waterfall Lifestyle, all of which were completed during the 2015 financial year. Current
vacant space is 16 273 m2, which equates to 2.4% of the GLA.

Other income
Other income of R448.6 million includes unrealised foreign exchange gains of R211.6 million (2015: R65.6 million) and a profit of R145.0 million on the
disposal of the Mauritius assets.
Operating and other expenses
The increase of 13.7% in operating and other expenses is primarily attributed to the increase in marketing, rates and taxes and security expenses relating
to Waterfall which are not capitalised against the developments under construction. Other once-off expenses which are included are a R58.3 million
impairment on the AttAfrica investment, a R22.4 million impairment on the investment in Ikeja Mall and a R12.0 million impairment of intangible assets.
Fair value adjustments
Compared to the prior year, fair value adjustments on investment properties decreased by 3.3% to R1.1 billion and are made up as follows:

Property valuations as at 30 June 2016 are based on external valuations performed by Jones Lang LaSalle Proprietary Limited, Old Mutual Investment Group:
South Africa and Mills Fitchet Magnus Penny & Wolffs. The directors have made adjustments for straight-lining and cost to complete.
The valuation in respect of Waterfall's development rights is based on an external valuation performed on a freehold basis. The valuation is then adjusted
downward to take into account, inter alia, the nature of the contractual rights and the estimated future rental obligations attached to the development
rights. The deteriorating economic environment and lower tenant activity have caused the directors to take a more conservative view of the roll-out of the
development activity, resulting in a further reduction in value.
At 30 June 2016, a loss of R32.5 million was recorded on the valuation of the interest rate swap (2015: profit of R68.1 million).
Investment income
Included in investment income in the current year is interest income of R182.9 million (2015: R113.9 million) and dividend income of
R52.8 million (2015: R28.6 million). Interest income from international investments, via loan accounts, amounted to R146.5 million (2015: R39.4 million).
Attacq received a dividend of R101.2 million (2015: R42.5 million) from MAS which was applied to reduce the investment in associate upon consolidation due
to equity accounting principles.
Finance costs
The increase in finance costs of 22.5% compared with the prior year is mainly attributable to the eight buildings (2015: 13 buildings) completed during the
financial year, resulting in the finance costs post completion being expensed and no longer capitalised to the specific development as well as to the
impact of interest rate increases.
Change in directors
Effective 1 July 2015, BT Nagle was appointed to the board as a non-executive director and LLS van der Watt's designation was changed from executive to
non-executive. Following a review of his independence by the board, AW Nauta's designation was changed from non-executive to independent non-executive.
TJA Reilly, an alternate director to JHP van der Merwe, a non-executive director of the Company resigned with effect from 30 October 2015.
BT Nagle and JHP van der Merwe no longer act as representatives of significant shareholders of Attacq. Based on the important contribution that both
directors make to the board, the board decided to retain them in an independent non-executive capacity with effect from 1 February 2016.
AW Nauta and PH Faure resigned as directors with effect from 30 April 2016.
Subsequent events
Waterfall industrial properties - joint venture with Equites
As indicated in the paragraph on non-current assets held for sale, Equites and Attacq have established a joint venture in respect of a portfolio of
industrial properties at Waterfall with effect from 1 July 2016. The transfer date of the leasehold properties took place on 31 August 2016.
Waterfall land parcel 3 and 24 - joint ventures with Sanlam Properties
As indicated in the paragraph on non-current assets held for sale, Attacq has entered into joint venture arrangements with Sanlam Properties, whereby
Attacq has agreed to dispose of some Waterfall development rights for an interest in two joint ventures. The effective date of these transactions is
1 July 2016.
Sale of 20.0% undivided share in Andringa Walk
Attacq entered into a sale agreement with Key Capital Holdings Proprietary Limited, in which it sells a 20.0% undivided share in Andringa Walk for an
amount of R37.0 million. The effective date of the sale transaction is 1 July 2016. Further details are included under non-current assets held for sale.
Further investment into Atterbury Serbia
On 12 August 2016, Attacq invested a further EUR6.6 million (R100.3 million) into Atterbury Serbia in order for Atterbury Serbia to increase its shareholding
in BreAtt from 33.0% to 50.0%. Further details are included under acquisitions.
The directors are not aware of any matters or circumstances arising subsequent to 30 June 2016 that require any additional disclosure or adjustment to the
financial statements.
Prospects
In South Africa, in addition to optimising its growing R15.3 billion portfolio of operational buildings and delivering on its Waterfall pipeline, Attacq is
actively pursuing further investment opportunities. The Waterfall node continues to strengthen, with seven new buildings completed during the year under
review, adding 121 370 m2 GLA to Attacq's portfolio. The super-regional Mall of Africa opened on 28 April 2016, and is expected to act as a strong catalyst
for demand for premises in the surrounding Waterfall City, which has a further 640 665 m2 of bulk available for development. Waterfall City is seen as one
of the most significant South African commercial developments of the decade and is expected to continue to attract local and international attention as the
new corporate headquarters destination.
Internationally, Attacq has invested into new markets in Cyprus and Serbia, which complement its existing Western European exposure via MAS. The MAS joint
venture with Prime Kapital is expected to start bearing fruit with land having been acquired and an exclusive pipeline is in place. The Cyprus assets
provide expansion opportunities and in Serbia, development opportunities have been identified for the deployment of BreAtt's EUR40.0 million development
fund. In sub-Saharan Africa, the challenging environment caused by the strong dollar and depressed commodity prices is expected to continue and Attacq's
focus in Africa will be on completing Kumasi City Mall, Ghana and active asset management of existing assets through the cycle.

Guides as issued by the Accounting Practices Committee and Financial Pronouncements as issued by the Financial Reporting Standards Council, and to also, as
a minimum, contain the information required by IAS 34: Interim Financial Reporting.
This report was compiled under the supervision of M Hamman CA(SA), chief financial officer of Attacq.
The accounting policies applied in the preparation of the Summarised Provisional Consolidated Financial Statements are in terms of IFRS and are consistent
with the accounting policies applied in the preparation of the previous consolidated financial statements, with the exception of the adoption of new and
revised standards which became effective during the year. These standards did not have any impact on the financial statements.
Fair value disclosure
The Group's investment properties were externally valued by independent valuers. In terms of IAS 40: Investment Property and IFRS 7: Financial Instruments:
Disclosure, the Group's investment properties are measured at fair value and are categorised as level 3 investments. The valuation of investment properties
requires judgement in the determination of future cash flows from leases and an appropriate capitalisation rate which varies between 6.3% and 9.5%
(2015: 6.3% and 9.5%). Changes in the capitalisation rate attributable to changes in market conditions can have a significant impact on property valuations.
A 50 basis points weakening in the capitalisation rate will decrease the value of investment properties by R603.3 million (2015: R572.1 million). A 50 basis
points improvement in the capitalisation rate will increase the value of investment properties by R690.6 million (2015: R648.6 million). Changes in the
discount rate attributable to changes in the underlying risk profile associated with the property portfolio can have a significant impact on property
valuations. A 50 basis points weakening in the discount rate will decrease the value of investment properties by R462.8 million (2015: R450.3 million).
A 50 basis points improvement in the discount rate will increase the value of investment properties by R480.9 million (2015: R464.0 million). In terms of
IAS 39: Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and IFRS 7, the Group's currency and interest rate derivatives as well as the equity derivative
are measured at fair value through profit or loss and are categorised as level 2 investments. Unlisted investments are categorised as level 3. There were no
transfers between levels 2 and 3 during the year. The valuation methods applied are consistent with those applied in preparing the previous consolidated
financial statements. This announcement does not include the information required pursuant to paragraph 16A(j) of IAS 34. The financial statements are
available on the issuer's website, at the issuer's registered offices and upon request.
