INTRODUCTION
Rebosis is a JSE listed real estate investment trust (REIT) with a high quality diversified portfolio across
commercial and retail assets. The majority of the commercial income enjoys a sovereign underpin from leases to
national government departments across 35 buildings. Its retail portfolio has a mix of flagship shopping centres
including Port Elizabeth (Baywest Mall) and East London (Hemingways Mall).
FINANCIAL RESULTS
Distributable income decreased from R22 million in the prior period to a loss of R71 million. The decrease is due to
the recognition of a deferred payment liability amounting to R175 million as well as interest on the land previously
acquired from Billion Group (Pty) Ltd in the income statement. Interest paid on secured loans dropped in the current
year due to the impact of interest rate cuts. The fund continues to provide Covid-19 relief to its tenants.
Concessions amounting to R14.3 million have been provided in the period ended 28 February 2021.
Investment properties including non-current assets held for sale are reflected at a book value of R13.1 billion.
Formal valuations will be performed at year-end according to the fund's policy as current valuations are still within
the 12 month cycle. During the period, proceeds from the disposal of the Medscheme building were used to settle
Standard Bank facilities.
DECLARATION AND PAYMENT OF CASH DIVIDEND
The Rebosis Board has deferred the decision to declare an interim dividend for the six months ended 28 February 2021
(29 February 2020 :Nil) to the financial year end.
PROSPECTS
The company has positively engaged with local and offshore institutions in a transaction to improve the company's loan
to value, interest cover ratio and optimise the balance sheet in realising value for all stakeholders. The proposed
transaction would be subject to due diligence and the prerequisite regulatory approvals. The company continues to
trade under cautionary due to the proposed transaction.
The significant reduction in interest rates during the 2020 year will continue to have a positive impact on the fund's
performance.
The defensive nature of the office portfolio is expected to mitigate the risk on the retail portfolio. Whilst overall
collections have been robust over the reporting period, the fund continues to assist small tenants especially in the
entertainment, food and beverage sectors through rental concessions.
The aggregated rental concessions of R14.3 million granted over the reporting period were less than expected. We
expect the rental concessions to further decrease unless a third Covid-19 wave occurs which may require further
lockdowns.
Management's focus will be on concluding the pending transaction while simultaneously achieving lease renewals and
vacancy fill ups.
