CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX-MONTH PERIOD ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2014
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the "group")
have been restated as a result of the decision to early adopt 'IFRS 9: Financial Instruments' in the current year.
The early adoption of IFRS 9 is a response to the compulsory redemption of a portion of the investment in the Karoo Fund.
This redemption required the investment to be reclassified in accordance with 'IAS 39: Financial Instruments – Recognition
and Measurement' from held-to-maturity to available-for-sale, as the redemption date was no longer fixed or determinable and
the group no longer had the ability to hold the investment until maturity. The group's Investments, comprising the
Karoo Investment Fund S.C.A. SICAV-SIF (the "Karoo Fund") and Sirius Real Estate Limited ("Sirius") were classified as
available-for-sale and measured at fair value at the reporting date, with such changes in fair value being recognised within
other comprehensive income. As the group is an investment business, it is considered appropriate that fair value movements in
relation to all investments should be recognised directly in profit or loss, and not in reserves for certain investments,
and in profit or loss for others. The early adoption of IFRS 9 results in more reliable and relevant information.
A detailed analysis of the impact of the restatement is disclosed in note 16.
The decision to early adopt IFRS 9 was made after the interim results had been issued. The group has therefore restated
these previously released interim results in accordance with IAS 34, in order to improve the comparability of information
and for the policies adopted in the interim results to be in line with the group's year-end accounting policies.
As part of the JSE's proactive monitoring, the company was required to make a SENS announcement on 7 August 2015. The
announcement related to additional disclosures in the interim results for the six months ended 31 December 2014 and a
restatement of headline earnings and headline earnings per share. The additional disclosure required has been updated
and included within these condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the six month period
ended 31 December 2014, which have also been restated for the correction of the computation of headline earnings and
headline earnings per share.
The directors do not use headline earnings or headline earnings per share in their analysis of the group's performance, and
do not consider it to be a useful or relevant metric for the group. The directors make no reference to headline earnings or
headline earnings per share in their commentaries. Instead, the directors use adjusted core income as a key metric of the
group's performance. Adjusted core income per share, upon which the company's distribution is based, is not affected as a
result of the change in accounting policy, reclassifications and error.
Reporting currency
The group's results are reported in euros.
Listings
MAS is listed on the Euro MTF Market of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and on the Main Board of the
Johannesburg Stock Exchange.
Statement of compliance
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34: Interim Financial Reporting, Luxembourg Stock Exchange ("LuxSE") rules
and regulations, the Johannesburg Stock Exchange ("JSE") Listings Requirements and applicable legal and regulatory
requirements of the BVI Companies Act 2004.
Comparative information
The comparative period is for ten months as a result of the company changing its year end from 28 February to 30 June.

Review report by KPMG Audit LLC to MAS Real Estate Inc
We have been engaged by MAS Real Estate Inc (the "company") and its subsidiaries (collectively the "group") to review the condensed set
of consolidated financial statements in the interim report for the six months ended 31 December 2014 which comprise the consolidated
statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, the consolidated statement of financial position, the consolidated statement
of cash flows, the consolidated statement of changes in equity and the related notes.
This report is made solely to the company in accordance with the terms of our engagement. Our review has been undertaken so that we
might state to the company those matters we are required to state to it in this report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent
permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company for our review work, for this report,
or for the conclusions we have reached.
Directors' responsibilities
The interim report is the responsibility of, and has been approved by, the directors. The directors are responsible for preparing
the interim report in accordance with LuxSE and JSE requirements.
The annual financial statements of the group are prepared in accordance with IFRSs. The condensed set of financial statements
included in this interim report have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.
Our responsibility
Our responsibility is to express to the company a conclusion on the condensed set of consolidated financial
statements in the interim report based on our review.
Scope of review
We have conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements (UK and Ireland)
2410 Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity issued by the
Auditing Practices Board for use in the UK. A review of interim financial information consists of making enquiries,
primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures.
A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with applicable law and International
Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland) and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware
of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Opinion on the financial statements
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the condensed set of
consolidated financial statements in the interim report for the six months ended 31 December 2014 is not prepared,
in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Reporting entity
MAS Real Estate Inc. (the "company" or "MAS") is domiciled in the British Virgin Islands. These condensed interim
consolidated financial statements as at and for the six month period ended 31 December 2014 comprise the
company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the "group" and individually as "group entities").
MAS is a real estate investment group with a portfolio of commercial properties in Western Europe. The group
aims to provide investors with an attractive, sustainable euro-based distribution and growth in value over time
through its acquisition, development and asset management strategy. The current investment focus of the group
is in Germany, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.
2. Basis of preparation
Statement of compliance
These interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial
Reporting Standard IAS 34: Interim Financial Reporting, the Johannesburg Stock Exchange ("JSE") Listings
Requirements, Luxembourg Stock Exchange ("LuxSE") rules and regulations and applicable legal and regulatory
requirements of the BVI Companies Act 2004.
In the prior reporting period the group prepared the consolidated financial statements in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU. However, as a result of the company
transferring its listing to the Main Board of the JSE, the group has prepared these interim consolidated financial
statements in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB ("IFRS").
In accordance with IFRS 1 the group's accounting policies were assessed and it was concluded the change to
IFRS did not materially affect the accounting policies or the manner in which the financial statements are
prepared or presented, as such there have been no adjustment to prior reported figures as a result of this
change. In accordance with IFRS 1 this has been explained further in note 18.
3. Significant accounting policies
Change in accounting policy
The group has applied IFRS 9 (2013) ("IFRS 9") in the current and prior reporting period. This standard is
effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018, however, the group has early adopted it as at
1 July 2014. The standard includes the following categories for the classification and measurement of
financial assets:
- Financial assets at amortised cost: Financial assets held within a business model whose objective is
to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and
interest on the principal amount outstanding.
- Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income: Financial assets include
investments in equity instruments that are not held for trading and where the fair value option is
elected.
- Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL"): Financial assets acquired for realising
capital gains from fluctuations in market prices.
The impact of the early adoption of IFRS 9 has been summarised in note 16.
The accounting policies applied in the preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements
are consistent with those applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for the sixteen month
period ended 30 June 2014, except for the following in accounting policies;
Financial instruments
i. Financial assets
The group classifies its financial assets in to the following categories: financial assets at amortised
cost and financial assets at fair value. Financial assets are recognised when the group becomes party to the
contractual provisions of the asset.
Financial assets at amortised cost
Financial assets are classified as financial assets at amortised cost only if both the following criteria
are met: the financial asset is held within a business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to
collect contractual cash flows; and the contractual terms of the financial asset give rise on specified
dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount
outstanding. Interest is the consideration for the time value of money and credit risk associated with
the principal amount outstanding.
The group may classify financial assets that meet the criteria to be classified as financial assets at
amortised cost as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss if doing so eliminates or
significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would arise if the financial asset
were measured at amortised cost.
Financial assets classified as financial assets at amortised cost are recognised initially at fair value
plus any directly attributable transaction costs at the settlement date. Subsequent to initial recognition,
these financial assets are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any
impairment losses.
Financial assets classified as financial assets at amortised cost comprise: Trade and other receivables,
cash and cash equivalents and short-term loans receivable.
Financial assets at fair value
A financial asset is classified as fair value if it does not meet either criteria for classification of a
financial asset at amortised cost. The group initially recognises these financial assets at trade date, and
attributable transaction costs are recognised in profit or loss as incurred. Financial assets at fair value
through profit or loss are subsequently measured at fair value, and changes therein are recognised in
profit or loss in the period in which they occur.
The group may irrevocably elect on initial recognition to present changes in the fair value of an
individual financial asset in other comprehensive income. The group only makes this election if the
financial asset is an equity instrument that is not held for trading.
For equity investments for which the election is made, gains and losses recognised in other
comprehensive income are not transferred to profit or loss on disposal. These gains and losses are
reclassified to retained earnings. The group has not made any such election as yet.
Financial assets classified as fair value through profit or loss comprise equity and fund investments
within the group's Investment and treasury Investments.
Derecognition of financial assets
The group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset
expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a
transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are
transferred. Any interest in transferred financial assets that is created or retained by the group is
recognised as a separate asset or liability.
ii. Financial liabilities
The group classifies its financial liabilities in to the following categories: financial liabilities at
amortised cost and financial liabilities at fair value. Financial liabilities are recognised when the
group becomes party to the contractual provisions of the liability.
Financial liabilities at amortised cost
All financial liabilities are classified as financial liabilities at amortised cost unless they meet the criteria
for classification as financial liabilities at fair value.
These financial liabilities are initially recognised at fair value plus any directly attributable transactions
costs at the settlement date. Subsequent to initial recognition, these financial liabilities are measured at
amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses.
Financial liabilities classified as financial liabilities at amortised cost comprise interest bearing
borrowings and trade and other payables.
Financial liabilities at fair value
Financial liabilities are classified as financial liabilities at fair value if they are: financial liabilities
that are held for trading; derivative financial instruments; financial liabilities designated as fair value;
financial liabilities that arise when a transfer of a financial liability does not qualify for derecognition or
when the continuing involvement applies; financial guarantees; and commitments to provide loans at a below-
market interest rate.
The group may elect to designate financial liabilities as fair value financial liabilities that would
otherwise meet the criteria to be classified as a financial liability at amortised cost, if doing so
eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would arise if the
financial liability were measured at amortised cost.
The group initially recognises financial liabilities at fair value at trade date, and attributable transaction
costs are recognised in profit or loss as incurred. Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
are subsequently measured at fair value, and changes therein are recognised in profit or loss in the
period in which they occur.
Financial liabilities classified as financial liabilities at fair value comprise derivative financial instruments
included in financial liabilities.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
The group derecognises a financial liability when the contractual obligations of the liability expire, i.e.
when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.
iii. Share capital
Ordinary shares
Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary
shares are recognised as a deduction from equity, net of any taxation effects.
iv. Impairment
A financial asset not carried at fair value through profit or loss is assessed at each reporting date to
determine whether there is objective evidence that it is impaired. A financial asset is impaired if
objective evidence indicates that an incurred loss event has occurred after the initial recognition of the
asset, and that the loss event had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset that
can be estimated reliably.
An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortised cost is calculated as the
difference between its carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows
discounted at the asset's original effective interest rate. Losses are recognised in profit or loss and
reflected in an allowance account against loans and receivables. Interest on the impaired asset
continues to be recognised to the extent that it is probable that the interest will be collected. When a
subsequent event (e.g. repayment by a debtor) causes the amount of impairment loss to decrease, the
decrease in impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss.
Finance income and finance costs
The group's finance income and costs include the following;
- Interest income
- Interest expense
Interest income or expense is recognised using the effective interest rate method.
Earnings per share
Basic and diluted earnings per share
The group presents basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) data for its ordinary shares.
Basic EPS is calculated by dividing the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of
the company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for own shares held.
Diluted EPS is determined by adjusting the profit or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders
and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding, adjusted for own shares held, for
the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.
Adjusted core income
Adjusted core income is the group's basis for determining semi-annual distributions. Core income is
the group's measure of the underlying income, as represented by the cash rental and interest income
received, less interest expenses, operating expenses that do not relate to capital raising and structure
costs and taxation paid, that can be distributed to shareholders, as adjusted for further realised
profit or losses on investment property, investment and treasury assets to the extent that the board
deems it appropriate to distribute these.
Headline earnings per share
Headline earnings are derived from basic earnings adjusted for re-measurements that relate to the
platform of the group per Circular 2/2013 issued by the South African Institute of Chartered Accountants.

Acquisition of subsidiary
On 15 October 2014 the group internalised the investment adviser acquiring 100% of the share capital and voting
rights of MAS Property Advisors Limited.
The group acquired the investment adviser due to identified cost reductions as a result of incurring the operating
cost of the investment advisory services instead of a net asset based investment advisory fee. From the date of
acquisition to 31 December 2014 the group has had a reduction of EUR1 505 090 in relation to investment adviser
fees which would have been charged under the investment advisory agreement and incurred additional costs of
EUR445 243 in the normal course of operations.
The board of MAS (BVI) Holdings Limited was advised as to the reasonableness of the transaction by Java Capital.
In the prior period on 19 August 2013 the group acquired a 62,5% interest in New Waverley 10 Limited, the
remaining shares that were not owned by the group. The acquisition was treated as a step-acquisition and the
group's pre-existing carrying amount of New Waverley 10 Limited was determined to be the fair value. Accordingly
no gain or loss was recognised as a result of the step-acquisition.

The group has capitalised costs incurred from related parties amounting to EUR8 560 753 (December 2013: EUR2 099
477; June 2014: EUR2 807 115) during the year (see note 17).
Measurement of fair values
Valuation process for level 3 investment property
Income-generating Investment properties are carried at the same valuation as the previous year end expect where they
have been acquired in the period. In such situations they are carried at the valuation at the date of acquisition.
Development properties are carried at capitalised cost less impairment, which is determined to be the best estimate of
fair value given the early stage of development.
For all investment properties their current use equates to the highest and best use. The external valuations
received are initially reviewed by the relevant internal asset manager and compared to their expectation of what
fair value would be for individual investment properties. If the asset manager is in agreement with the valuation,
the valuation reports are then checked by the finance team to confirm their numerical and methodological
accuracy. Lastly, the investment property valuation is reviewed by the Audit Committee.
Development properties where fair value cannot be reliably determined, but for which the group expects the fair
value will be reliably determinable as construction progresses, are measured at cost less impairment until fair value
becomes reliably determinable, as cost less impairment is the best estimate of fair value.
Fair value hierarchy
The fair value measurement of all the group's investment properties has been categorised as level 3 in the fair
value hierarchy based upon the significant unobservable inputs into the valuation technique used.

A fair value sensitivity analysis has not been disclosed for investment properties acquired during the period
ended 31 December 2014 as a result of sensitivity analysis' not being obtained as part of the independent valuers
report at the time of acquisition. The group considers that it is impracticable to obtain these sensitivities.
All income-generating investment property continues to be held at their last valuation for which a sensitivity
analysis is available in the group's annual integrated report 2015. Development properties are carried at capitalised
cost less impairment, which is determined to be the best estimate of fair value therefore a sensitivity analysis isn't applicable.

The investments are classified as FVTPL. Accordingly they are measured at fair value at the reporting date with
changes in fair value being recognised in profit or loss. These investments have been classified as FVTPL because
the contractual terms of the financial assets do not give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal
and interest on the amount outstanding.
On 5 December 2014 the group acquired a 4,2% shareholding in Sirius for EUR10 178 432. This has been fair valued
at 31 December 2014 and a gain of EUR1 263 564 was recognised in fair value adjustments in profit or loss.
The Karoo fund is classified as FVTPL. On 30 October 2014 the Karoo Fund compulsorily redeemed a portion of the
investment amounting to EUR11 796 176. At 31 December 2014 the investment was fair valued to EUR64 098 804 and a
gain of EUR40 130 514 was recognised in fair value adjustments in profit or loss.

Valuation process for level 3 investments
On an annual basis the fair value of investments is determined by external investment managers, having
appropriate valuation experience.
These valuations are initially reviewed by the group's analyst and compared to their expectation of fair value.
The valuation is then checked by the finance team to ensure the numerical and methodological accuracy. Lastly,
the investment valuation is reviewed by the Audit Committee.
Valuation techniques and unobservable inputs
As the prior period net asset value of the Karoo Fund did not reflect fair value, the valuation was determined by
applying discounts to each of the underlying investments held. The discounts applied related to: illiquidity;
specific risks facing each investment; and the percentage of total investment held. In the current period, such
discounts are no longer considered appropriate given the nature of assets held and progress in the underlying
investments. Accordingly, NAV is now considered the appropriate valuation technique to determine the fair value
of the Karoo Fund.
At 31 December 2014 all inputs into the valuation are observable as the underlying investments are listed, with
the exception of a convertible debenture that is not significant to the fair valuation.
The following table shows the valuation technique used to measure investments held at fair value as well as the
unobservable inputs used for Level 2 and significant unobservable inputs used for level 3 investments.

Due to the low interest rate environment, management sought better returns on the group's cash over the course
of the last year by investing in a portfolio of European real-estate equities. These treasury investments are
classified as FVTPL. Accordingly they are measured at fair value at the reporting date with changes in fair
value being recognised in profit or loss. These investments have been classified as FVTPL because the objective
of the group's business model is to sell the instrument prior to its contractual maturity to
realise its fair value changes.

During the year the group incurred EUR10 903 (December 2013: EUR28 751; June 2014: EUR2 897 232) in expenses in
relation to issuing shares. These were offset against share capital.
12. Foreign currency translation reserve
The group recognised a foreign currency translation gain of EUR94 500 (December 2013: EUR46 707; June 2014:
EUR156 323) resulting in a foreign currency translation reserve at the reporting date of EUR717 428 (December 2013:
EUR513 312; June 2014: EUR622 928). The foreign currency translation reserve as at 31 December 2014 has been
restated as a result of the group adopting IFRS 9 (see note 16).
This reserve results from the translation of foreign subsidiaries from a functional currency other than euros
into the presentation currency of euros. The assets and liabilities including goodwill and fair value adjustments
arising on business combinations are translated using the exchange rates at the reporting date. Items in the
consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income and consolidated statement of cash flows are
translated into euros using the actual, or approximate average rates of exchange for the transactions.
The resulting translation adjustments are recorded in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the foreign
currency translation reserve. Cumulative translation adjustments are recognised as income or expense upon partial
or complete disposal of a foreign entity. Exchange differences arising from the translation of the net investment
in a foreign operation are taken to other comprehensive income. These are recycled and recognised in the profit or
loss upon disposal of the operation.

Attacq financial liability
Under the purchase agreement of the Karoo Fund (see note 9) Attacq is entitled to a contingent adjustment (the
"Adjustment") in the consideration paid to them by the group. This contingent adjustment is dependent upon the
value at which the Karoo Fund redeems. The contingent payment will be share-based and would amount to
EUR20 612 124 if the current reported net asset value were to be realised. The Karoo Fund's NAV as at 31 December
2014 was EUR153 598 589.
At the point when the Karoo Fund is realised ("the Realised Value") an Adjustment will be made as follows:
1. To the extent that the Realised Value is below the purchase price, 25% of such deficit shall be deemed to be a
cost to Attacq, who shall have a corresponding number of consideration shares bought back by MAS for nil
consideration and subsequently cancelled.
2. To the extent that the Realised Price is above the purchase price and below 85% of EUR49 382 605, no further
MAS shares will be issued to Attacq.
3. To the extent that the Realised Price is above 85% and below 100% of EUR49 382 605, such a surplus shall be
deemed to be a benefit to Attacq, who shall be issued a corresponding number of additional MAS shares at a
price per share equal to the 30-day volume weighted average price of a MAS share at the point when the Karoo
Fund is realised.
4. To the extent that the Realised Price is above 100% of EUR49 382 605, 50% of such further surplus shall be settled
through the issue of additional MAS shares to Attacq at a price per share equal to the 30-day volume weighted
average price of a MAS share at the point when the Karoo Fund is realised.
The Karoo Fund is due to be fully redeemed on 31 January 2016.
This financial liability has been classified as FVTPL by opting to use the fair value option. This matches the cost
of the financial liability with the gain on the related investment directly in profit or loss.

14. Operating segments
The group has the following four strategic divisions identified as reportable segments:
Reportable segment Description
Income-generating property Consists of all the income-generating investment property
in the portfolio.
Development property Consists of development property namely the New
Waverley development in Edinburgh, North Street
Quarter development in Lewes and the Langley
development in Chippenham.
Investments Consists of the holding in the Karoo Fund and Sirius.
Corporate and treasury Consists of all of the cash holdings outside of the other
reporting segments, treasury investments and goodwill
on the acquisition of MAS Property Advisors Limited.
The group's chief operating decision maker is determined to be the executive management team. The executive
management team analyses the performance and position of the group by aggregating the group into the four
reportable segments. These reportable segments have different risk profiles and generate revenue/income from
different sources, accordingly, it allows the executive management team to make better informed strategic
decisions for the group. Management reports are prepared and reviewed on a quarterly basis by the executive
management team to facilitate this process.

*Restatement
The JSE Listings Requirements require the calculation of headline earnings and diluted headline earnings per share
and the disclosure of a detailed reconciliation of headline earnings to the earnings numbers used in the calculation
of basic earnings per share, to be in accordance with the requirements of IAS 33 – Earnings per Share. Disclosure of
headline earnings is not a requirement of IFRS. The directors do not use headline earnings or headline earnings per
share in their analysis of the group's performance, and do not consider it to be a useful or relevant metric for the
group. The directors make no reference to headline earnings or headline earnings per share in their commentaries.
Instead, the directors use adjusted core income. There are no dilutionary instruments in issue and therefore
headline earnings and diluted headline earnings are the same.

16. Change in accounting policy, reclassifications and errors
Change in accounting policy
The group has early adopted IFRS 9: Financial Instruments, with an initial application date of 1 July 2014. The
rationale for the early adoption of IFRS 9 was a result of the Karoo Fund compulsorily redeeming a portion of the
group's investment in the fund, consequently the investment was required to be reclassified in accordance with IAS
39 from held-to-maturity to available-for-sale as the redemption date was no longer fixed or determinable.
Financial assets classified as available-for-sale are measured at fair value at the reporting date with changes in fair
value being recognised within other comprehensive income. As the group is an investment business, it is
considered that fair value movements in relation to all such investments should be recognised directly in profit or
loss, and not in reserves for certain investments, and in profit or loss for others. The adoption of IFRS 9 results in
more reliable and relevant information in that all changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss.
IFRS 9 includes the following categories for the classification and measurement of financial
assets:
- Financial assets at amortised cost: Financial assets held within a business model whose objective is to
hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on
the principal amount outstanding.
- Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income: Financial assets include investments
in equity instruments that are not held for trading and where the fair value option is elected.
- Financial assets at FVTPL: Financial assets acquired for realising capital gains from fluctuations in market
prices.
There have been no alterations to the measurement basis of any financial instruments held by the group as a result
of the adoption of IFRS 9 with the exception of the group's Investments which comprise the Karoo Fund and Sirius
(see note 9).
As at 30 June 2014 the Karoo Fund was classified as held-to-maturity in accordance with IAS 39, and measured at
amortised cost, whereby such amortised cost approximated fair value.
On adoption of IFRS 9 the group has retrospectively reclassified the investment in the Karoo Fund as FVTPL. Financial
assets at FVTPL are measured at fair value, and changes therein are recognised in profit or loss. The Attacq financial
liability (see note 13) has been recognised gross of the group's investment in the Karoo Fund because Attacq is a
third party in relation to the group's investment in the Karoo Fund (see error note below).
Reclassifications
The group has made a reclassification to previously reported figures for the periods ending 31 December 2013 and
30 June 2014 to match the classification of the current period financial information. These reclassifications have
been made to aid comparability for readers of these restated audited condensed consolidated financial statements.
The reclassifications relate to:
- Splitting net finance income/(expense) into separate line items for finance income and finance costs; and
- Splitting disposal on investment property into a separate line item from net (loss)/gain on investment property
and changing the line item of net (loss)/gain on investment property to fair value adjustments.
- Presenting scrip distributions in “issue of shares” rather than “distributions” in the condensed consolidated
statement of changes in equity.
Errors
As part of the JSE's proactive monitoring MAS was required to make a SENS announcement on 7 August 2015. The
announcement related to additional disclosures in the interim results for the six months ending 31 December 2014
and an error identified with respect to the computation of headline earnings and headline earnings per share. The
additional disclosure has been included within these restated audited condensed interim consolidated financial
statements for the six month period ended 31 December 2014 which have also been restated for the error with
respect to the computation of headline earnings and headline earnings per share.
The directors do not use headline earnings or headline earnings per share in their analysis of the group's
performance, and do not consider it to be a useful or relevant metric for the group. The directors make no
reference to headline earnings or headline earnings per share in their commentaries. Instead, the directors use
adjusted core income as a basis for measuring the performance of the group.
The adjustments required to be made to headline earnings and headline earnings per share are isolated purely to
the technical methodology of computation. Adjusted core income per share, upon which the company's dividend
distribution is based, has not been impacted as a result of this restatement. The impact of restating this error has
been disclosed in note 15.
As noted above on adoption of IFRS 9 the group retrospectively reclassified the investment in the Karoo Fund as
FVTPL and recognised the group's investment in the Karoo Fund gross of the financial liability due to Attacq. The
Karoo Fund and financial liability due to Attacq were previously reported net in error.
There is no impact on the:
- Consolidated statements of cash flows any period;
- Consolidated statements of financial position for December 2013 and June 2014; or
- Consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for June 2014.
The impact of the change in accounting policy, reclassifications and errors is disclosed below except for the impact
on basic and diluted earnings and basic and diluted earnings per share as well as headline and diluted headline earnings
and headline and diluted headline earnings per share which are disclosed separately in note 15.

18. First time adoption of IFRS
In the prior reporting period the group prepared the consolidated financial statements in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU. However, as a result of the company transferring its
listing to the Main Board of the JSE, the group has prepared these interim consolidated financial statements in
accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB").
The group has adopted the following standards for the year beginning 1 July 2014 as a result of preparing these
condensed interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS:
IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements – Reissued as IAS 27 Separate Financial
Statements (as amended in May 2011)
IAS 28 Investments in Associates – Reissued as IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures (as
amended in May 2011)
IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation – Amendments to application guidance on the offsetting of
financial assets and financial liabilities (December 2011)
IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements (May 2011)
IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements (May 2011)
IFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities (May 2011)
Annual improvements to IFRSs – 2010 to 2012 cycle
Annual improvements to IFRSs – 2011 to 2013 cycle
This change implies, under IFRS 1, that the group is technically preparing the financial statements in accordance with
IFRS for the first time. In accordance with IFRS 1, the group's accounting policies and newly adopted standards were
assessed, and it was concluded the change to IFRS as adopted by the IASB did not materially affect the accounting
policies or the manner in which the financial statements are prepared or presented. As such there has been no
adjustment to prior reported figures and no further disclosures have been made in respect of IFRS 1.
