However, we still believe that success will be dependent on location,

HALF YEAR REVIEW
While the economic environment remains challenging I am pleased to report that
London & Associated Properties continues to make progress. Our performance
during the first half of 2011 was satisfactory against an increasingly
difficult retailing climate and our vacancy levels are encouragingly low.
LAP's income for the first six months rose to 9.0 million from 8.6 million.
On a like for like basis rental income was up 0.6% after eliminating the
distortions arising from the sale of Antiquarius in the first half of last
year; the reverse premium received this year from Boots at Windsor; and the
letting at Brixton to In-Shops which had a marginal adverse impact on rental
income this year.
Our current portfolio still has very few vacancies. Void units as a percentage
of our rental income are only 1.7%. Over the last 12 months we have completed
lease renewals with a combined rental value of 0.36 million.
In the total portfolio the average weighted unexpired lease term is 8.6 years
compared to 7.0 years 12 months ago, a satisfactory increase in the current
market conditions.
In terms of the group's hedging arrangements we have brought them more into
line with the outstanding loans. The swaps were further reduced during the
period, at a cost of 920,000, with an incremental annual saving in interest
payments of 197,000 per annum. The current level of hedging is now 120.4
million at an average rate of 4.735% against term loans of 115.1 million,
compared to 124.4 million a year ago.
The group made a profit before taxation in the first six months of 1.4 million
compared to a loss of 9.8 million. The board has taken the decision to
maintain the interim dividend at the same level as last year of 0.75p per share
payable on 20 January 2012 to shareholders on the register at 23 December 2011.
The groups' net assets under European Real Estate Association (EPRA), as used
by most property companies, stood at 71.1 million compared to 72.2 million.
Overheads in the period are lower following the offsetting of 0.3 million of
management fees received by London & Associated Management Services (LAMS our
wholly owned subsidiary) for work carried out on the Sapphire portfolio. This
is net of all expenses and deductions.
In June we completed our first joint venture with Columbus Capital Management
LLP (Columbus), part of Schroders' real estate investment and asset management
business, and acquired Langney District Shopping Centre, Eastbourne. It
consists of a 130,000 sq. ft district shopping centre on a 12 acre site which
is situated in a large residential area to the north of the town centre.
The freehold centre is anchored by a Tesco supermarket and other tenants
include Peacocks, Boots, Iceland, Barclays Bank, Ladbrokes, Domino's and Family
Bargains. The average passing rent is currently about 30 per square foot Zone
A. There is an existing planning consent to extend the centre by 75,000 sq. ft
to provide new retail and leisure accommodation. We are developing a number of
asset management opportunities for this centre, and hope to be able to report
on them in the near future.
LAP owns 12.5% of the equity in the joint venture for a 889,000 investment.
Our associated company Bisichi Mining owns a further 12.5% of the equity.
LAMS will manage the shopping centre for an ongoing fee, and it will earn a
profit share which will be received, subject to meeting certain criteria,
when we ultimately dispose of the property.
Columbus is a successful and established real estate investor with many joint
ventures. We are excited to have teamed up with them on this project, and hope
to carry out further joint ventures with them in the future.
Windsor
During the first half, we concluded a letting to Pret a Manger for a new Pret
Caf concept. As previously reported, the rent is 87,500 per annum compared to
72,000 per annum previously. We also carried out a letting to Temptation Gifts
at 85,000 per annum compared to 82,600 per annum previously. Temptation Gifts
were online gift retailer of the year 2009, 2010 and 2011, and this is their
5th shop. The remainder of the centre is fully let with the exception of 1 unit
which is under offer with imminent completion.
Redevelopment of the former Boots unit continues to progress satisfactorily. We
are dividing up the unit to create 3 units. The first unit of 1200 sq ft is on
the ground floor with 6,000 sq ft on the first floor, which has been pre-let to
Cotswold Outdoor, the outdoor clothing and equipment retailer, at 120,000 per
annum. The second unit faces on to Peascod Street and an agreement for lease
for this unit is about to be signed with a quality fashion retailer. We are
deliberately holding back the final unit to commence marketing following the
successful letting of the first 2 units. We will commence marketing of the
remaining unit in the second half of the year.
Other centres
We have also completed a number of successful lease renewals at Kings Square,
West Bromwich in the last 12 months. These renewals account for 23% of the
rental income of the centre, and increase the average weighted unexpired lease
terms to 4.4 years from 3.8 years.
At Orchard Square, Sheffield, the Centre has remained fully let during the
first 6 months and continues to trade well.
Following the letting of the whole of Brixton to Groupe Geraud, Brixton
continues to trade well. The market remains fully let with 16 traders on the
waiting list, so it should be showing a growth in income payable to LAP in the
future.
LAMS has been appointed by Grant Thornton to manage further retail assets for
fees. A project, in Ealing, has only just commenced so I will report more fully
in the future.
The continuing economic uncertainty in the markets and its effect on the UK
consumer will continue to have an impact on retail property in general. However
we still believe that success will be dependent on location, affordability of
rents and attractiveness of individual centres. The company is well positioned
given the increase in the average lease length within our portfolio, the
investment into our new joint venture and our active management capabilities.
We remain cautiously optimistic for the future.

5. Property
Properties at 30 June 2011 are included at valuation as at 31 December 2010,
plus additions in the period.
During the six months ended 30 June 2011 the group had property additions of
0.039 million (30 June 2010: 0.554 million,
31 December 2010: 0.489 million).
No properties were sold during the six months ended 30 June 2011 (carrying
value sold 30 June 2010: 3.7 million, 31 December 2010: 20.7 million).
6. Interest rate derivatives
The directors have estimated the financial effect of the fair value to the
business of the hedging instruments. This has been calculated as the Net
Present Value of the difference between the 17 year interest rate, which was
3.93 per cent at 30 June 2011 against the rate payable under the specific
hedge. This has given a liability at 30 June 2011 of 11,864,000 as shown in
the balance sheet. The banks own initial quotations at 30 June 2011 to close
each of the hedges were 14,330,000.
Under IAS 39 the hedges are not deemed to be eligible for hedge accounting and
any movement in the value of the hedges is charged directly to the consolidated
income statement. The banks have an option to cancel the hedges in November
2014 and January 2015. The cost to the group to exit the instruments before
November 2014 and January 2015 has been attributed a cost by the bank of
5,524,000. It is not the intention of the Directors to exit these instruments
and this cost has not been recognised.
The company reduced the total amount hedged by 5,000,000 in the six months to
bring it nearer into line with the actual borrowings outstanding. The cost of
this reduction was 920,000 and it has been included in the income statement
for the period.

Notes to the half year report continued
9. Capital commitments
The group had no contractual capital commitments as at 30 June 2011 (30 June
2010: nil, 31 December 2010: nil).
10. Dividends
The interim dividend payable on 20 January 2012 of 0.75p per share (30 June
2010: 0.75p per share) would amount to 632k (30 June 2010: 627k). The final
dividend in respect of 2010 of 0.40p per share, amounting to 337k, was paid on
1 July 2011. As the 2010 final dividend was approved by the shareholders at the
Annual General Meeting held on 6 June 2011, it is included as a liability in
these interim financial statements.
11. Risks and Uncertainties
The group's principal risks and uncertainties are reported on page 26 in the
2010 Annual Report. They have been reviewed by the Directors and remain
unchanged for the current period.
The largest area of estimation and uncertainty in the interim financial
statements is in respect of the valuation of investment properties (which are
not revalued at the half year ) and the valuation of interest rate derivatives.
12. Financial information
The above financial information does not constitute statutory accounts within
the meaning of section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. The figures for the year
ended 31 December 2010 are based upon the latest statutory accounts, which have
been delivered to the Registrar of Companies; the report of the auditor's on
those accounts was unqualified and did not contain a statement under Section
498(2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006.
As required by the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the UK's Financial
Services Authority, the interim financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and in
accordance with both IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting' as adopted by the
European Union and the disclosure requirements of the Listing Rules.
The half year results have not been audited or subject to review by the
company's auditor.
The annual financial statements of London & Associated Properties PLC are
prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the European Union. The same
accounting policies are used for the six months ended 30 June 2011 as were used
for the year ended 31 December 2010.
The assessment of new standards, amendments and interpretations issued but not
effective, is that these are not anticipated to have a material impact on the
financial statements.
There is no material seasonal impact on the group's financial performance.
Taxes on income in the interim periods are accrued using tax rates expected to
be applicable to total annual earnings.
The interim financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis
as the Directors are satisfied the group has adequate resources to continue in
operational existence for the foreseeable future.
13. Board approval
The half year results were approved by the Board of London & Associated
Properties PLC on 30 August 2011.
Directors' responsibility statement
The Directors confirm that to the best of their knowledge:
(a) the condensed set of financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with applicable accounting standards and IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as
adopted by the EU;
(b) the interim management report includes a fair review of the information
required by:
(1) DTR 4.2.7R of the Disclosure and Transparency Rules, being an indication of
important events that have occurred during the first six months of the
financial year and their impact on the condensed set of financial statements ;
and a description of the principal risks and uncertainties for the remaining
six months of the year; and
(2) DTR 4.2.8R of the Disclosure and Transparency Rules, being related party
transactions that have taken place in the first six months of the current
financial year and that have materially affected the financial position or
performance of the entity during that period; and any changes in the related
party transactions described in the last annual report that could do so.
