Table 24: Reconciliation of segmental information note to statutory reporting 
 
The table below reconciles the Group's income statement to the segmental information note (note 3 to the financial
statements). The Group's income statement is prepared using the equity accounting method for joint ventures and includes
100% of the results of the Group's non-wholly owned subsidiaries. In contrast, the segmental information note is prepared
on a proportionately consolidated basis and excludes the non-wholly owned share of the Group's subsidiaries. This is
consistent with the financial information reviewed by management.

5. 2017/18 second quarterly dividend 
 
The Board has declared a second quarterly dividend for the year ending 31 March 2018 of 9.85p per ordinary share will be
paid on 5 January 2018 to shareholders registered at the close of business on 1 December 2017. This will be paid wholly as
an ordinary dividend. Together with the first quarterly dividend of 9.85p already paid on 6 October 2017 wholly as a
Property Income Distribution (PID), the first half dividend will be 19.7p per ordinary share (six months ended 30 September
2016: 17.9p). 
 
6. Dividend related services 
 
-    Dividend payments to UK shareholders - Dividend Mandates 
 
We recommend that dividends are paid directly into a nominated bank or building society account through the Bankers
Automated Clearing System (BACS). This service provides cleared funds on the dividend payment date, is more secure than
sending a cheque by post and avoids the inconvenience of paying each dividend by cheque. This arrangement is only available
in respect of dividends paid in sterling. 
 
-    Dividend payments to overseas shareholders - International Payment Service 
 
For international shareholders who would prefer to receive payment of their dividends in local currency and directly into
their local bank account, an Overseas Payment Service (OPS) is available. This can be more convenient and effective than
otherwise receiving dividend payments by sterling cheque or into a UK bank account. 
 
The OPS service is available from Equiniti who, in partnership with Citibank, may be able to convert sterling dividends
into your local currency at competitive rates and either arrange for those funds to be sent to you by currency draft or
credited to your bank account directly. 
 
-    Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRIP) 
 
A DRIP is available from Equiniti. This facility provides an opportunity by which shareholders can conveniently and easily
increase their holding in the Company by using their cash dividends to buy more shares. Participation in the DRIP will mean
that your dividend payments will be reinvested in the Company's shares and these will be purchased on your behalf in the
market on, or as soon as practical after, the dividend payment date. 
 
You may only participate in the DRIP if you are resident in the European Economic Area, Channel Islands or Isle of Man.
