Notes forming part of the financial statements
for the six months ended 30 September 2017
1. General information
Sirius Real Estate Limited (the "Company") is a company incorporated in
Guernsey and resident in the United Kingdom, whose shares are publicly traded
on the main markets of the London Stock Exchange ("LSE") and the Johannesburg
Stock Exchange ("JSE").
The consolidated financial information of the Company comprises that of the
Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the "Group") for the six
month period to 30 September 2017.
The principal activity of the Group is the investment in, and development of,
commercial property to provide conventional and flexible workspace in
Germany.
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.
The comparative figures for the financial year ended 30 September 2016 are not
the Company's statutory accounts for that financial year. Those accounts have
been reported on by the Company's auditors and delivered to the registrar of
companies. The report of the auditor was (i) unqualified (ii) did not include
a reference to any matters to which the auditors drew attention by way of
emphasis without qualifying their report and (iii) did not contain a statement
under section 263 (2) or (3) of the Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008.
As at 31 March 2017, the Company elected to present consolidated financial
statements in a manner which makes them more comparable with similar
businesses that operate in the real estate sector who typically include only
costs that are considered directly attributable the underlying property assets
within net operating income. As a result, the consolidated statement of
comprehensive income for the six months ended 30 September 2016 has been
re-presented with the main impact being the reallocation of costs that are not
considered to be directly attributable to the underlying property assets from
direct costs to administrative expenses. The impact on total comprehensive
income for the comparative period is nil as shown in the table below:

(b) Non-IFRS measures
The Directors have chosen to disclose EPRA earnings, which are widely used
alternate metrics to their IFRS equivalents (further details on EPRA best
practice recommendations can be found at www.epra.com). Note 10 of the Interim
Report includes a reconciliation of basic and diluted earnings to EPRA
earnings.
The Directors are required, as part of the JSE Listing Requirements, to
disclose headline earnings; accordingly, headline earnings are calculated
using basic earnings adjusted for revaluation surplus net of related tax and
gain/loss on sale of properties net of related tax. Note 10 of the Interim
Report includes a reconciliation between IFRS and headline earnings.
The Directors have chosen to disclose adjusted earnings in order to provide an
alternative indication of the Group's underlying business performance;
accordingly, it excludes the effect of adjusting items net of related tax.
Note 10 of the Interim Report includes a reconciliation of adjusting items
included within adjusted earnings, with those adjusting items stated within
administrative expenses in note 5.
The Directors have chosen to disclose adjusted profit before tax and Funds
from Operations in order to provide an alternative indication of the Group's
underlying business performance and to facilitate the calculation of its
dividend pool, a reconciliation between profit before tax and funds from
operation is included within note 22. Within adjusted profit before tax are
adjusting items as described above gross of related tax.
Further details on non-IFRS measures can be found in the Business Analysis
section of this document.
(c) Statement of compliance
The condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom Financial
Conduct Authority, the SAICA Financial Reporting Guides as issued by the
Accounting Practices Committee, Financial Reporting Pronouncements as issued
by the Financial Reporting Standards Council, the listing requirements of JSE
Limited and IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting'. They do not include all of
the information required for the full annual financial statements and should
be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Group
as at and for the year ended 31 March 2017. The condensed interim financial
statements have been prepared on the basis of the accounting policies set out
in the Group's annual financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2017.
The financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2017 have been prepared
in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as
adopted for use in the EU. The Group's annual financial statements refer to
new standards and interpretations, none of which had a material impact on the
financial statements.
(d) 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.
(e) Basis of consolidation
The unaudited interim condensed set of consolidated financial statements
comprises the financial statements of the Group as at 30 September 2017. 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.
(f) 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 2017.
(g) Principal risks and uncertainties
The key risks that could affect the Group's medium-term performance and the
factors which mitigate these risks have not materially changed from those set
out in the Group's Annual Report and Accounts 2017 and have been assessed in
line with the requirements of the 2014 UK Corporate Governance Code. The risks
are reproduced below. The Board is satisfied that the Company continues to
operate within its risk profile.
Principal risks summary

All rental income is derived from operations in Germany. There is no one
tenant that represents more than 10% of Group revenues. The chief operating
decision maker is considered to be the Board of Directors, which is provided
with consolidated IFRS, as adopted by the European Union ("EU"), information
on a quarterly basis.

All employees are employed directly by one of the following Group subsidiary
companies: Sirius Facilities GmbH, Sirius Facilities (UK) Limited, Curris
Facilities & Utilities Management GmbH, SFG NOVA GmbH, Sirius Finance
(Guernsey) Limited and Sirius Corporate Services B.V. The average number of
people employed by the Group during the period was 224 (30 September 2016:
201; 31 March 2017: 204) expressed in full-time equivalents. In addition, the
Board of Directors consists of four Non-executive Directors and two Executive
Directors as at 30 September 2017.
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 of twelve months. The performance conditions used to
determine the vesting of the award are based on net asset value and total
shareholder return allowing vesting of 0% to a maximum of 125%. As a result, a
maximum of 25,150,000 shares were granted, subject to performance criteria,
under the scheme in December 2015.
No shares were forfeited in the six months to 30 September 2017. An expense of
E2,148,000 (30 September 2016: E2,152,000) was recognised in the statement of
comprehensive income to 30 September 2017.
Movements in the number of shares outstanding and their weighted average
exercise prices are as follows:
(Unaudited) six months ended30 September 2017 Year ended 31 March 2017
Number ofshares Weightedaverageexerciseprice E000 Number ofshares WeightedaverageexercisepriceE000
Balance outstanding as at the beginning of the period (nil exercisable) 23,850,000 - 25,150,000 -
Forfeited during the period - - (1,300,000) -
Balance outstanding as at the end of the period (nil exercisable) 23,850,000 - 23,850,000 -
The fair value per share was determined using the Monte-Carlo model, with the
following assumptions used in the calculation as at the grant date:
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 expected life 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
During the period, 487,166 shares were issued to the Company's management
through its MSP scheme.
A reconciliation of share-based payments and employee benefit schemes and
their impact on the consolidated statement of changes in equity is as
follows:

Reductions in the UK corporation tax rate from 20% to 19% (effective from 1
April 2017) and 18% (effective from 1 April 2020) were substantively enacted
on 26 October 2015. A further reduction to the UK corporation tax rate was
announced in the 2016 Budget to further reduce the tax rate to 17% (to be
effective from 1 April 2020). This will reduce the Company's future current
tax charge accordingly. The deferred tax asset at the balance sheet date has
been calculated based on the rate of 19%, which represents the expected
relevant rate to apply to the period when the asset is realised.
The Group has tax losses of E246,521,000 (31 March 2017: E 262,525,000) that
are available for offset against future profits of its subsidiaries in which
the losses arose under the restrictions of the minimum taxation. Deferred tax
assets have not been recognised in respect of the revaluation losses on
investment properties and interest rate swaps as they may not be used to
offset taxable profits elsewhere in the Group as realisation is not assured.
Deferred tax assets have been recognised in respect of the valuation of the
Company LTIP.
10. Earnings per share
The calculation of the basic, diluted, headline and adjusted earnings per
share is based on the following data:

The Directors have chosen to disclose adjusted earnings per share in order to
provide an alternative indication of the Group's underlying business
performance; accordingly, it excludes the effect of adjusting items net of
related tax, gains/losses on sale of properties net of related tax, the
revaluation deficits/surpluses on the investment properties net of related tax
and derivative financial instruments net of related tax. In addition, the
Directors have chosen to disclose EPRA earnings in order to assist in
comparisons with similar businesses. The reconciliation between basic and
diluted earnings and EPRA earnings is as follows:

1,062,058 shares; 31 March 2017: 1,062,058 shares), which are held by the
Company as Treasury Shares at 30 September 2017, for the calculation of basic,
headline, adjusted and diluted earnings per share.

The fair value (market value) of the Group's investment properties at 30
September 2017 has been arrived at on the basis of a valuation carried out at
that date by Cushman & Wakefield LLP (2016: Cushman & Wakefield LLP), an
independent valuer.
The value of each of the properties has been assessed in accordance with the
RICS valuation standards on the basis of market value. Market value was
primarily derived using 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.
