Notes forming part of the financial statements 
 
1. General information 
 
The Company is a company incorporated in Guernsey and resident in the United
Kingdom, whose shares are publiclytraded on AIM of the LSE (primary listing)
and the AltX of the JSE (secondary listing). 
 
The unaudited interim condensed set of consolidated financial statements of
Sirius Real Estate Limited comprises that of the Company and its subsidiaries
(together referred to as the "Group"). 
 
The principal activity of the Group is the investment in and operation and
development of commercial property to provide conventional and flexible
workspace in Germany. 
 
The audited consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended
31 March 2016 are available upon request from the Company's registered office
at PO Box 119, Martello Court, Admiral Park, St. Peter Port, Guernsey GY1 3HB,
Channel Islands or at www.sirius-real-estate.com. 
 
2. Significant accounting policies 
 
(a) Basis of preparation 
 
The unaudited interim condensed set of consolidated financial statements have
been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for investment properties,
investment properties held for sale and derivative financial instruments which
have been measured at fair value. The unaudited interim condensed set of
consolidated financial statements are presented in euros and all values are
rounded to the nearest thousand (E000) except where otherwise indicated. 
 
(b) Statement of compliance 
 
The audited consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended
31 March 2016 have been prepared in accordance with IFRSs adopted for use in
the EU ("Adopted IFRSs") and the Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008. The unaudited
interim set of financial statements has been prepared applying the accounting
policies and presentation that were applied in the preparation of the
Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31
March 2016. They do not include all of the information required for full
annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited
consolidated financial statements of the Group as at and for the year ended 31
March 2016. 
 
(c) Going concern 
 
Having reviewed the Group's current trading and cash flow forecasts, together
with sensitivities and mitigating factors and the available facilities, the
Board has a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to
continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the
Board continued to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these financial
statements. 
 
(d) Basis of consolidation 
 
The unaudited interim condensed set of consolidated financial statements
comprises the financial statements of the Group as at 30 September 2016. The
financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting
period as the Company, using consistent accounting policies. 
 
All intra-group balances and transactions and any unrealised income and
expenses arising from intra-group transactions are eliminated in preparing the
consolidated financial statements. 
 
Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date of acquisition, being the
date on which the Group obtains control, and continue to be consolidated until
the date that such control ceases. 
 
Non-controlling interests represent the portion of profit or loss and net
assets not held by the Group and are presented separately in the consolidated
statement of comprehensive income and within equity in the consolidated
statement of financial position, separately from the Company's shareholders'
equity. 
 
(e) Significant accounting policies 
 
The accounting policies applied by the Group in this unaudited interim
condensed set of consolidated financial statements are the same as those
applied by the Group in its audited consolidated financial statements as at
and for the year ended 31 March 2016. 
 
3. Operating segments 
 
The Directors are of the opinion that the Group is engaged in a single segment
of business, being property investment, and in one geographical area, Germany.
All rental income is derived from operations in Germany. There is no one
tenant that represents more than 10 per cent of Group revenues. The chief
operating decision maker is considered to be the Board of Directors, which is
provided with consolidated IFRS information on a quarterly basis.

The costs for the period ended 30 September 2016 include those relating to
Executive Directors and an accrual of E2,152,000 (31 March 2016: E1,452,000)
relating to the granting or award of shares under LTIPs (see note 7).

Facilities & Utilities Management GmbH, SFG NOVA GmbH and Sirius Corporate
Services B.V. The average number of people employedby the Group during the

full-time equivalents. In addition, the Board of Directors consists of four
Non-executive Directors and two Executive Directors as at 30 September 2016. 
 
7. Employee schemes 
 
Equity settled share based payments 
 
A new LTIP for the benefit of the Executive Directors and the Senior
Management Team was approved in October 2015. The fair value determined at the
grant date is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting and holding
period, based on the Company's estimate of the shares that will eventually
vest and adjusted for the effect of non-market-based vesting conditions. Under
the LTIP, the awards are granted in the form of whole shares at no cost to the
participants. Shares vest after the three year performance period followed by
a holding period. The performance conditions used to determine the vesting of
the award are based on net asset value and total shareholder return allowing
vesting of zero per cent to a maximum of 125 per cent. As a result, a maximum
of 25,150,000 shares were granted, subject to performance criteria,under the
scheme in December 2015 and an expense of E1,452,000 was recognised in the
consolidated statement of comprehensive income to 31 March 2016. 
 
A total of 1,300,000 shares were forfeited in the six month period to 30
September 2016. An expense of E2,152,000 was recognised in the statement of
comprehensive income to 30 September 2016. 
 
Movements in the number of shares outstanding and their weighted average
exercise prices are as follows: 
 
                                                                          (Unaudited)six months ended             Year ended

The fair value per share was determined using the Monte-Carlo model, with the
following assumptions used in the calculation as at grant date: 
 
                                                                      31 March 2016  
 Weighted average share price - E                                     0.52           
 Weighted average exercise price - E                                  -              
 Expected volatility - %                                              20             
 Expected life - years                                                2.48           
 Risk-free rate based on European treasury bonds' rate of return - %  (0.11)         
 Expected dividend yield - %                                          3.41           
 
 
Assumptions considered in the model include: expected volatility of the
Company's share price, as determined by calculating the historical volatility
of the Company's share price over the historic period immediately prior to the
date of grant and commensurate with the expectedlife of the awards; dividend
yield based on the actual dividend yield as a percentage of share price at the
date of grant; expected life of the awards; risk-free rates; and correlation
between comparators. 
 
Employee benefit scheme 
 
The original LTIP for the benefit of the Executive Directors and the Senior
Management Team expired at the end of March 2015. As a result, a total of
3,471,200 Ordinary Shares were issued during the financial year to 31 March
2016. 
 
During the period 313,608 shares were issued to the Company's management
through its MSP and Ordinary Shares taken in lieu of bonus (31 March 2016:
134,918 shares).

The fair value (market value) of the Group's investment properties at 30
September 2016 has been arrived at on the basis of a valuation carried out at
that date by Cushman & Wakefield LLP (2015: Cushman & Wakefield LLP), an
independent valuer. The adjustment in respect of lease incentives excludes
those relating to assets that have been written down. 
 
The valuation is based upon assumptions including future rental income,
anticipated maintenance costs and an appropriate discount rate. The properties
are valued on the basis of a ten year discounted cash flow model supported by
comparable evidence. The discounted cash flow calculation is a valuation of
rental income considering non-recoverable costs and applying a discount rate
for the current income risk over a ten year period. After ten years a
determining residual value (exit scenario) is calculated. A capitalisation
rate is applied to the more uncertain future income, discounted to a present
value. 
 
The Directors also perform a review of the valuation and they have decided to
reduce the value of 3 of the 42 properties from the Cushman & Wakefield LLP
valuation. 
 
The weighted average lease expiry remaining across the whole portfolio at 30
September 2016 was 2.6 years. 
 
The movement on the valuation of the investment properties at market value as
set out in the valuer's report is as follows:
