DIRECTORS' COMMENTARY
NATURE OF BUSINESS
Mainland was incorporated on 2 February 2016 as a Category One Global Business Licence Company. The Company has its primary listing on the Official
Market of the Stock Exchange of Mauritius Ltd ("SEM") and a secondary listing on the Alternative Exchange of the JSE Limited. The Company has been
established with the primary objective of investing in global real estate assets and companies, predominantly situated in the United Kingdom and
selected Western European jurisdictions, specifically the Netherlands and Germany.
Since listing, the Company has invested in a diversified portfolio of listed property securities and continues to trade in these, as well as making

COMPANY REVIEW FOR THE THREE MONTHS AND SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2018
The Company hereby presents its results for the three months and six months ended 30 September 2018.
During the three months ended 30 September 2018, the Company received a dividend of GBP1,035 (EUR 1,171) on its investments in Sirius Real Estate
Ltd. In addition, the weakening of the ZAR against GBP resulted in a net unrealised loss on financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
and an unrealised foreign exchange loss.
COMPANY OUTLOOK
Mainland intends to grow its portfolio of listed property securities and investments, mainly through strategic investments into listed and direct
property investment sectors. The board of directors of the Company ("the Board") remains on the lookout for and is actively pursuing opportunities
that fall within the ambit of Mainland’s investment strategy.
Mainland is still in the process of appointing a new Chief Executive Officer and Chief Investment Officer. A further announcement will be made upon
their appointments.
