COMMENTARY
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 42 buildings. Its retail
portfolio has a mix of dominant and newly built shopping centres set to dominate in their nodes in Port Elizabeth (Baywest Mall) and Centurion
(Forest Hill City).
FINANCIAL RESULTS
Rebosis has declared a dividend of 126,43 cents per A ordinary share and 63,23 per ordinary share for the six months ended 28 February 2018. This
amounts to an 5,0% period-on-period growth for the A ordinary share and a 4,0% period-on period growth for the ordinary share which is in line with
the 4,0% to 6,0% guidance provided.
The portfolio was revalued by independent valuers, LDM Valuation Solutions for both the commercial and industrial portfolios and Mills Fitchet for
retail. The value in the underlying portfolio grew by 17.9% to R18.9bn. The like-for-like growth in the underlying retail portfolio amounted to 7.1%
year-on-year, 5.5% for the commercial portfolio and 7,0% for the industrial assets.
Distributable income increased by 29.6% from R389.1million in the prior period to R504.2million for this reporting period. The increase was mainly
due to the full consolidation of Ascension Properties Limited (2017: 53.5%).
The net cost to income ratio increased from 15.0% to 16.0% as a result of increased rates and taxes. The property net income increased by 6.8% in
line with market related escalations. Anticipated dividend from New Frontier decreased from R63.2million in the prior period to R33.2million in the
current reporting period resulting from the disposal of 29.9% of the shares held by Rebosis to a broad based black economic empowerment consortium.
Fund management expenses increased considerably from R55.1million in the 2017 interim period to R65.1million, mainly due to increased staff costs as
bonuses to staff in the prior period were paid by the asset manager and not the fund.
PROPERTY PORTFOLIO
The consolidated property portfolio of Rebosis is illustrated in the following graphs in terms of sectoral and geographical splits.
FUNDING
At 28 February 2018, RebosisÕ borrowings increased to R10.3 billion from R9.8 billion in the prior reporting period resulting from additional shares
acquired in New Frontier Properties Limited (Ò NFPÓ) and the funding of the Dublin acquisition by NFP. The weighted average cost of debt decreased
marginally from 9.4% to 9.3%, largely due to the decrease in the JIBAR reference rate. There are currently hedge arrangements in place for 67.1% of
the debt.
The loan to value increased from 45.7% to 48.3% as a result of the increased borrowings.

SEGMENT REPORT
The group classifies segments based on the type of property i.e. Commercial, Retail, Industrial, and Other. Properties can be mixed use properties.
In this instance the property will be classified according to its principle use. Accordingly, the group only has three reporting segments as set out
below. Some of the buildings do have a small retail component (normally at street level), but seldom exceeds 10% of the total GLA per building.
These operating segments are managed separately based on the nature of the operations. For each of the segments, the groupÕs CEO (the groupÕs chief
operating decision-maker) reviews internal management reports monthly. The CEO considers earnings before taxation to be an appropriate measure of
each segmentÕs performance.

adjustment to the financial statements, other than as disclosed in this announcement.
With effect from 03 November 2017, Zandile Kogo was appointed to the board of directors of the company as an executive director given her wealth of
experience in property industry, in both developments and existing portfolios. On 18 April 2018, Andile Mazwai resigned as Chief Executive Officer
(CEO) and Sisa Ngebulana stepped into an executive capacity and assumes the functions of a Chief Executive Officer in his role as Deputy Chairman.
PROSPECTS
Rebosis is well positioned for future growth given its stable and defensive retail portfolio that comprises an 88% national tenant profile. Both the
retail and office portfolio have delivered a 6.8% net property income growth in the reporting period with positive rent uplift on renewals that
indicate good property fundamentals.
Rebosis will have a strong focus on operations with an accelerated focus on filling up the remaining vacancies at Forest Hill and Baywest, the newly
acquired malls.
Of importance, there will be a strong focus on Balance Sheet management to reduce gearing to below 35%, which will be achieved through an accelerated
disposal of non-core office assets. This in turn will also serve to achieve more retail bias on the remaining portfolio in line with its stated
strategy of being a retail focused fund.
This prospects statement is issued by the board and has not been reviewed or reported on by the companyÕs external auditors.
