Basis of preparation and accounting policies

The condensed interim financial statements of Oasis Crescent Property
Fund (“the Fund” or “OCPF”) has been prepared in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS), (IAS) 34 Interim
Financial Reporting, JSE Listings Requirements, the requirements of
the Collective Investment Schemes Control Act of 2002, the SAICA
Financial Reporting Guides, as issued by the Accounting Practices
Committee, and the Financial Reporting Pronouncements, as issued by
the Financial Reporting Standards Council. The financial statements
are prepared on the historical cost basis as modified by the
revaluation of investment properties, financial assets at fair value
through profit or loss and available-for-sale financial assets. The
accounting policies and methods of computation applied in this
interim report are consistent with the policies as set out in the
most recent annual financial statements, which should be read in
conjunction with this report, except as set out below. The Fund’s
external auditor, PricewaterhouseCoopers Inc., has reviewed the
financial information set out in this report. Their unqualified
review report is available for inspection at the Fund’s registered
office. The operational results of the Fund are not affected by
seasonal or cyclical fluctuations.

These condensed reviewed results were compiled by Michael Swingler
CA(SA).


Fair value estimation of investments

Financial instruments and other assets carried at fair value are
valued in terms of IFRS 13.
The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets
(such as available-for-sale securities) is based on quoted market
prices at the end of the reporting period.

Specific valuation techniques used to determine fair value include:
 • Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical
    assets or liabilities
 • Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that
    are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as
    prices) or indirectly (derived prices)
 • Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on
    observable market data (unobservable inputs)

The Fund transfers assets between levels in the fair value hierarchy
on the date that there is a change in the circumstances that give
rise to the transfer.

The information below analyses financial assets and financial
liabilities, which are carried at fair value, by level of hierarchy
as required by IFRS 7 and IFRS 13.

The following table presents the Fund’s assets that are measured at
fair value at 30 September 2016:

The carrying value of financial liabilities approximates their fair value
due to the short term nature of the instruments.

The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based
on quoted market prices at the statements of financial position date. A
market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly
available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing
service, or regulatory agency, and those prices represent actual and
regularly occurring market transactions on an arm's length basis. These
instruments are included in level 1.

The instruments included in level 2 comprises of Irish stock exchange
property   equity  investments   classified   as  available-for-sale   and
investments in Shari'ah compliant instruments classified as financial
assets at fair value through profit or loss. The fair value of financial
instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by using
valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise the use of
observable market data where it is available and rely as little as
possible on entity specific estimates. If all significant inputs required
to fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in
level 2. If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on
observable market data, the instrument is included in level 3.

Specific valuation techniques used to value financial instruments
include:

Available-for-sale financial assets
Oasis Crescent Global Property Equity Fund:
The fair value of investments in the Oasis Crescent Global Property Equity
Fund is determined using the closing Net Asset Value (NAV) price published
by Oasis Global Management Company (Ireland), the management company of
the fund, and listed on the Irish Stock Exchange. The shares are not
actively traded on the Irish Stock Exchange and are therefore not included
in Level 1.

Investment in listed property funds
The fair value of these investments is determined using the closing price
as at statement of financial position date. These shares are listed and
traded on the JSE Stock Exchange and are therefore classified as Level 1.


Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Oasis Crescent Income Fund
The fair value of investments in Oasis Crescent Income Fund is determined
using the closing Net Asset Value (NAV) price published by Oasis Crescent
Management Company Limited, the management company of the fund. These
investments are not actively traded on an exchange and are therefore not
classified as Level 1.

The valuation of investment properties include comparable bulk sales,
discounted cash flow and net income capitalisation, using contracted
rental income and other cash flows. Capitalisation rates used in the
valuations are the most recent rates published by the South African
Property Owners Association (SAPOA). The principal assumptions underlying
estimation of fair value are those related to the receipt of contractual
rentals, expected future market rentals, void levels ranging from 0% to
5%, maintenance requirements and appropriate discount rates. These
valuations are regularly compared to actual market yield data, actual
transactions by the Fund and those reported by the market. Valuations were
carried out as at 31 March 2016 by Mills Fitchet Magnus Penny, an
independent, professional valuer registered without restriction in terms
of the Property Valuers Act No. 47 of 2000.
The valuation of investment properties requires judgement in the
determination of future cash flows and an appropriate capitalisation rate
which varies between 7.50% and 10.25% (2015: 6.75% and 13%). Changes in
the capitalisation rate attributable to changes in market conditions can
have a significant impact on property valuations. The valuation of
investment properties may also be influenced by changes in vacancy rates.

There have been no significant transfers between level 1, 2 or 3 during
the period under review, nor were there any significant changes to the
valuation techniques and inputs used to determine fair values.

Manager’s report

INTRODUCTION
The Oasis Crescent Property Fund is a well-diversified REIT invested in
South African direct and listed property investments and high quality global
listed REITS. The Fund has a strong balance sheet with no debt and
substantial reserves which provide flexibility to take advantage of
opportunities.

The objective of the Manager is to protect and grow the real wealth of
investors by providing sustainable growth in Net Asset Value and delivering
a consistent income stream that has potential to grow. Our focused approach
has delivered significant real wealth for investors with an annualised total
unitholder return of 13.5% relative to annualised inflation of 6.1% since
inception, outperforming inflation by an average of 7.4% per annum. Your
Fund’s annualised total intrinsic value return is 13.8% per annum since
inception. The Rand has been volatile and during HY2017 the NAV and
intrinsic value return was impacted by a stronger Rand. Post the interim
period end, this Rand volatility has continued and the weakening of the Rand
has resulted in a recovery of the NAV.

MARKET OVERVIEW

The level of new supply remains low in most of the global developed markets
due to high barriers to entry resulting from the scarcity of land, extensive
planning requirements and a lack of funding for speculative property
development. US and EU REITs have also been more prudent, debt levels are
well below their 2008 peaks and average debt maturity has increased.

In South Africa, Super Regional and Community shopping centres continue
delivering trading density growth above rental growth but medium sized
centres appear to be losing market share and their rent to sales ratios have
started increasing. The demand for office space is linked to confidence and
the employment outlook, which is going to take time to recover and the new
supply of modern and efficient properties is creating an increasing vacancy
and rental risk. Supply chain efficiency and online sales are positive
drivers of demand for modern warehousing and logistics space while the
demand for industrial manufacturing space is limited.

The Fund has focused on building a portfolio with a combination of high
quality direct property investments and global listed REITS with properties
located in the major global cities, which adds geographic and currency
diversification. The direct property portfolio includes exposure to the
retail, industrial and office sectors with a high exposure to the Western
Cape. In order to attract world class tenants, there is continuous
investment in and maintenance of the direct properties. The increase in the
value of direct property during HY2017 was due to the acquisition of a
property in the Western Cape which has location advantages and development
potential. The global investments consist of the Oasis Crescent Global
Property Equity Fund which is well positioned with a focus on REITS with
high quality assets and balance sheets. The global investments increased by
10% in US$ value year-on-year but this was off-set by the stronger Rand.
Post the interim period end the weakening of the Rand has resulted in a
recovery of the value of global investments. The Cash and other listed SA
Investments provide flexibility for the Fund to pursue growth opportunities.


REVIEW OF RESULTS AND OPERATIONS

The Fund remains focused on broadening and continuously improving the SA
direct property portfolio by taking advantage of opportunities when leases
expire to enhance properties and improve the tenant mix.    In order to
implement these asset enhancements there will be a period of strategic
vacancy which will have a dilutionary impact over the short term but this
action will enhance the quality and sustainability of the Fund’s income over
the longer term.

We are pleased to announce that the Fund will initiate an investment in a
new modern logistics facility in the Western Cape which is the start of a
strategic partnership with long term potential, where the Fund will benefit
from the development capacity and pipeline of the larger Oasis Group. In
order to provide the flexibility and liquidity for these investments, the
Fund has been building up a balance sheet of compliant income instruments.
In the short term there will be a timing difference between placing these
investments and receiving the profit rates.

As indicated above, the asset enhancement strategy has resulted in higher
vacancy and a reduction in the direct property net income but this action
will enhance the quality and sustainability of the Fund’s income over the
longer term. The Global investment income benefitted from the growth of
distributions from the Oasis Crescent Global Property Equity Fund and the
weaker Rand during HY2017 relative to HY2016. The Fund has been building up
a balance sheet of compliant income instruments to fund future investment
and due to the timing difference between placing these investments and
receiving the profit rates, the cash and local investment income was
slightly lower. The higher service charge expense is due to the increase in
the market capitalisation of the Fund. The weighted average units in issue
increased due to a high proportion of unitholders electing to reinvest their
dividends in additional units as well as the property acquired through the
issue of units.

The like for like change in average retail rental per m² increased by 7%
year on year. The total year on year decrease is due to the change in mix of
the portfolio due to the property acquisitions. The decrease in average
office rental per m² is as a result of rental reversion to market as well as
the change in mix of the portfolio due to the property acquisitions. Average
industrial rental per m² increased in line with annual rental escalations.

Investment Portfolio Characteristics

The investment in high quality global listed REITS provide geographic and
sector diversification. REITs with a high exposure to the major global
cities, positive secular demand drivers, enhancing refurbishments and
superior balance sheets are expected to outperform as bond yields normalise
and the Oasis Crescent Global Property Equity Fund is well positioned to
benefit. Oasis Crescent Global Property Equity Fund also displays very
attractive valuation characteristics with an average cash flow yield of 6.2%
and dividend yield of 4.8% which continue to offer value relative to the
average bond yield and inflation of 1.4% and 1.0% respectively.


OUTLOOK

The Fund remains focused on addressing the lease expiry profile through
renewing leases of high quality tenants and improving the tenant mix where
necessary. Expiries also provide opportunities to strategically refurbish
properties and enhance tenant mix. The accumulated cash and liquid reserves
provide the flexibility to take advantage of opportunities. Post the interim
period end, the Fund will initiate an investment in a new modern logistics
facility in the Western Cape which is the start of a strategic partnership
with long term potential. The global investments will continue to provide
diversification benefits to investors and will remain a unique
characteristic of the Fund. Management is confident in the strategy of the
Fund.

     Note:

1. Unitholders reinvesting their distribution in new units are alerted to
   the fact that the new units will be listed 3 business days after the
   last day to trade and that these new units can only be traded 3 business
   days after the last day to trade, due to the fact that settlement of the
   units will be 3 business days after the record date, which differs from
   the conventional one business day after the record date settlement
   process.
2. Units may not be dematerialised or rematerialised between Wednesday, 30
   November 2016 and Friday, 2 December 2016, both days inclusive.
3. The above dates and times are subject to change. Any changes will be
   announced on SENS.
4. All times quoted in this circular are South African times.
5. Dematerialised unitholders should provide their CSDP or broker with
   their election instructions by the cut-off time stipulated in terms of
   their custody agreement with such CSDP or broker.
6. If no election is made, the distribution accrued to the unitholder will
   be used to purchase additional units.

Tax implications of the distribution
In respect of the distribution, the manager hereby advises unitholders,
who will receive the distribution, that for taxation purposes, OCPF is
a REIT as defined in the Income Tax Act as from 1 April 2013 and,
accordingly, the tax implications of the distribution have changed as
from that date. The distribution will not be exempt from income tax in
terms of section 10(1)(k) of the Income Tax Act.

For South African tax residents, the distribution will be exempt from
dividends tax in terms of section 64F(l) of the Income Tax Act,
provided that you, as unitholder, provide the transfer secretary or
your nominee, custodian or CSDP with confirmation of your tax residence
status in the prescribed form. If you do not provide the required
residence status, they will have no choice but to withhold dividends
tax at a rate of 15%.

For non-resident unitholders, for South African tax purposes, the
distribution received by a non-resident unitholder 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 tax residence
of the unitholder. Non-resident unitholders that believe that a reduced
rate of tax applies in respect of their applicable DTA should contact
the transfer secretaries or their nominee, custodian or CSDP for the
prescribed form to record the reduced rate of tax.

Where dividends tax is withheld at 15%
-     the reinvestment ratio for non-resident unitholders will be
1.97963 units at 2 072 cents per unit, for every 100 (one hundred)
units held on the record date;
-     should such unitholders elect to receive the distribution in cash,
they will receive 4 101.80158 cents per 100 units held on the record
date.

Kindly contact the transfer secretaries, or your nominee, custodian or
CSDP for a copy of the prescribed declaration form.

The Income Tax Act sections applicable to the distributions made are as
follows:

•    Property income distribution from a REIT – section 10(1)(k) and
section 64F(l)

Both resident and non-resident unitholders are encouraged to consult
their professional tax advisors with regard to their individual tax
liability in this regard.

Units in issue at the date of declaration of the distribution: 54 077
452

Income tax reference number: 3354212148

A circular will be posted to unitholders on or about 14 November 2016
in respect of the income and unit distribution.
