to the ShAreholderS oF Growthpoint propertieS limitedWe have audited the consolidated financial statements of Growthpoint Properties Limited,which comprise the statementoffinancial position at 30 June 2014, and the statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended, and the notes to the financial statements which include a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes, as set out on pages18to71.

directorS’ reSponSibility For the FinAnciAl StAtementS The company’s directors are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and the requirements of the Companies Act of South Africa, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’S reSponSibility our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgement, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

reportinG entityGrowthpointProperties Limited is a companydomiciled inSouthAfrica. The address of the company’s registered office is The Place, 1 Sandton Drive, Sandton.

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statementsofGrowthpointPropertiesLimited(Growthpointorthecompany), its subsidiary companies and controlled trusts (together referred to as the Group and individually as group companies), the share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of equity-accounted investees, and the Group’s share of the assets, liabilities, income, expenses and cash flows of jointly controlled operations. Where reference is made to the “entity”, this means the company or the Group as appropriate in the context.

nAture oF buSineSSGrowthpoint Properties Limited is a Real Estate InvestmentTrust(ReIT) company and is the largest South African listed property company which owns a property portfolio of 436 directly owned properties in South Africa valued at R49,4 billion, 51 properties valued at R20,9 billion through its 64.0% investment in Growthpoint Properties Australia (GoZ), and a 50% interest in the properties of the V&A Waterfront.

From 1 July 2013, Growthpoint became a ReIT company and the existing linked unit capital structure converted to an all-equity capital structure in order to align Growthpoint’s linked unit capital structure with the capital structures of international ReITs.

The primary business of Growthpoint is long-term investment in quality, rental-generating properties. Properties are maintained, upgraded and refurbished, where necessary, so as to increase their long-term value.

bASiS oF prepArAtiona) Statement of compliance The Group financial statements comprise the consolidated financial

statements. The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), the SAICA Financial Reporting Guides as issued by the Accounting PracticesCommittee,theJSEListingsRequirements,therequirementsoftheSouthAfricanCompaniesAct,71of2008,asamended,andthe Companies Regulations 2011, and incorporate the principal accounting policies set out below.

except for the new standards adopted as set out below, all accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are in terms of IFRS and are consistent with those applied in the previous consolidated financial statements.

Growthpoint adopted the following new standards:• IFRS 10 Consolidated financial statements• IFRS 11 Joint arrangements• IFRS 13 Fair value measurement• Annual improvements to IFRS 2009 – 2011

There was no material impact on the financial statements identified based on management’s assessment of these standards.

The annual financial statements of the company are presented separately from the consolidated financial statements and were

AccOUnTIng POlIcIES

approved by the directors on 26 August 2014, the same date as these financial statements. The separate financial statements are available from the Company Secretary.

b) Basis of measurement The financial statements are prepared on the fair value basis for

investment properties as set out in note 1.3, investment properties reclassified as held for sale as set out in note 1.7, and financialinstruments as set out in note 1.2. other assets, liabilities and equity are stated at historic cost. Fair value adjustments (where applicable) do not affect the calculation of distributable earnings but affect the net asset value per share to the extent that adjustments are made to the carrying values of assets and liabilities.

c) Functional and presentation currency The consolidated financial statements are presented in South

African Rand (Rand), which is the company’s functional currency. All financial information presented in Rand has been rounded to the nearest million.

1. SiGniFicAnt AccountinG policieS1.1 basis of consolidation1.1.1 Accounting for business combinations Acquisitions on or after 1 July 2009 The Group accounts for business combinations on or after 1 July 2009

by applying the acquisition method as at the acquisition date and measures goodwill as the fair value of the consideration transferred including the recognised amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree, less the net recognised amount (generally fair value) of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, all measured at the acquisition date.

The Group controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those through its power over the entity. The acquisition date is the date on which control is transferred to the acquirer. Judgement is applied in determining the acquisition date and determining whether control is transferred from one party to another.

Consideration transferred includes the fair values of the assets transferred, liabilities incurred by the Group to the previous owners of the acquiree, and equity interests issued by the Group. Consideration transferred also includes the fair value of any contingent consideration. If a business combination results in the termination of pre-existing relationships between the Group and the acquiree, then the lower of the termination amount, as contained in the agreement, and the value of the off-market element is deducted from the consideration transferred and recognised in other expenses.

A contingent liability of the acquiree is assumed in a business combination only if such a liability represents a present obligation and arises from a past event, and its fair value can be measured reliably.

The Group measures any non-controlling interest at its proportionate interest in the identifiable net assets of the acquiree.

Transaction costs that the Group incurs in connection with a business combination, such as finder’s fees, legal fees, due diligence fees, and other professional and consulting fees, are expensed as incurred.

AccOUnTInG POlIcIES

Acquisitions between 1 July 2003 and 1 July 2009 For acquisitions between 1 July 2003 and 1 July 2009, goodwill

represents the excess of the cost of the acquisition over the Group’s interest in the recognised amount (generally fair value) of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the acquiree. When the excess was negative, the Group recognised immediately a bargain purchase gain in profit or loss.

The Group capitalised transaction costs in connection with the business combination, other than those associated with the issue of debt or equity interests, as part of the cost of the acquisition.

1.1.2 Accounting for acquisitions of non-controlling interests Acquisitions of non-controlling interests that do not result in a loss

of control are accounted for as transactions with equity holders in their capacity as equity holders and therefore, no goodwill is recognised as a result of such transactions.

1.1.3 Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are those entities controlled by the Group. The financial

results of subsidiaries and controlled trusts are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.

A list of the Group’s subsidiaries is set out in note 43, related party transactions.

1.1.4 Interests in equity-accounted investees The Group’s interests in equity-accounted investees comprise

interests in joint ventures. A joint venture is an arrangement in which the Group has joint control, whereby the Group has rights to the net assets of the arrangement, rather than rights to its assets and obligations for its liabilities.

Interests in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method. They are recognised initially at cost, which includes transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, the consolidated financial statements include the Group’s share of the profit or loss and the other comprehensive income of equity-accounted investees, until the date on which joint control ceases.

1.1.5 Jointly controlled operations A jointly controlled operation is a joint venture carried on by each

venturer using its own assets in pursuit of the joint operations. Jointly controlled operations are accounted for by including the Group’s share of the jointly controlled assets, liabilities, income, expenses and cash flows on a line-by-line basis in the financial statements from the date that joint control commences until the date that joint control ceases.

1.1.6 Transactions eliminated on consolidation Intra-group balances, transactions and any unrealised gains and

losses arising from intra-group transactions are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. Unrealised gains arising from transactions with jointly controlled operations are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the operation. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.

1.2 Financial instruments Financial instruments are contracts that give rise to a financial asset

of one entity, and a financial liability or equity instrument of another entity. All transaction costs relating to “financial instruments at fair

value through profit or loss” are expensed immediately. Any gains or losses on these instruments arising from fair value adjustments, where appropriate, do not affect distributable earnings. The Group recognises financial instruments on the date it commits to purchase or sell such instruments. From this date, any gains and losses in the fair value of the financial assets and financial liabilities are recorded in profit or loss.

Certain financial instruments are designated upon initial recognition as “at fair value through profit or loss” as this eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency that would otherwise arise from measuring assets or liabilities or recognising gains or losses on them on different bases.

The Group derecognises a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. Any interest in transferred financial assets that is created or retained by the entity is recognised as a separate asset or liability.

The Group derecognises a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged, cancelled or expired.

1.2.1 Listed investments Listed investments are designated as available-for-sale financial

assets and are initially recognised at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs.

Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at fair value and changes therein are recognised in other comprehensive income and presented in a non-distributable reserve in equity. When an investment is derecognised, the gain or loss accumulated in equity is reclassified to profit or loss.

1.2.2 Long-term loans Long-termloansareinitiallyrecognisedandsubsequentlymeasured

at fair value. The gain or loss on remeasurement to fair value is recognised immediately in profit or loss. Interest earned on long-term loans is recognised on an accrual basis using the effective interest method.

1.2.3 Trade and other receivables Trade and other receivables are financial assets with fixed or

determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market, are initially recognised at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost which approximates fair value. An estimate is made for credit losses basedonareviewofalloutstandingamountsatyear-end.Baddebtsare written off to profit or loss during the year in which they are identified. Interest earned on trade receivables is recognised on an accrual basis using the effective interest method.

1.2.4 Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits

with maturities of three months or less from the acquisition date. Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of change in fair value. Cash and cash equivalents are measured at amortised cost, which approximates fair value. Interest earned on cash invested with financial institutions is recognised on an accrual basis using the effective interest method.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.2.5 Debentures Debentures, prior to the conversion to a ReIT, were designated as “at

fair value through profit or loss” financial liabilities, with gains or losses being recognised in profit or loss. These instruments were initially recognised at fair value, which was the nominal value less debenture discount, and subsequently measured at fair value. Fair value represented the net asset value attributable to debenture holders after adjusting all other assets and liabilities to fair value (excluding intangible assets). Interest paid on debentures was recognised on an accrual basis using the effective interest method.

1.2.6 Trade payables Trade payables are initially recognised and subsequently measured

at amortised cost which approximates fair value. Interest payable on trade payables is recognised on an accrual basis using the effective interest method.

1.2.7 Derivative financial instruments The Group uses derivative financial instruments to hedge its

exposure to interest rate risk arising from its financing activities and to hedge its exposure to foreign currency risk.

In accordance with its treasury policy, the Group does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. However, as the hedge relationship is not designated as a hedge for accounting purposes, the derivatives are accounted for as trading instruments.

Derivative financial instruments are initially recognised and subsequently measured at fair value. The gain or loss on remeasurement to fair value is recognised immediately in profit or loss. Post the conversion to a ReIT, fair value adjustments are transferred to a non-distributable reserve in the statement of changes in equity.

The Group holds interest rate swap and foreign exchange derivative instruments. The fair value of interest rate swaps is the estimated amount that the entity would receive or pay to terminate the swap at the reporting date, taking into account current interest rates and the current creditworthiness of the swap counterparties. The fair value of foreign exchange contracts is valued by discounting the forward rates applied at year-end to the open hedged positions.

1.2.8 Financial liabilities Non-derivative financial liabilities comprising long-term interest-

bearing loans, other than debentures, are initially recognised and subsequently measured at fair value, with gains or losses being recognised in profit or loss. The fair value is estimated by discounting the future cash payments using the market rate applicable at the reporting date. Interest payable on financial liabilities is recognised on an accrual basis using the effective interest method.

1.2.9 Offset Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net

amount presented in the statement of financial position when the Group has a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts, and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

1.3 Investment property Investment property consists of land and buildings, installed

equipment and undeveloped land held to earn rental income for the long term and subsequent capital appreciation.

Properties are initially recognised at cost on acquisition, including all costs directly attributable to the acquisition, and subsequent additions that will result in future economic benefits and whose cost can be measured reliably are capitalised. Investment property under construction is valued at fair value.

Direct costs relating to major capital projects are capitalised until the properties are brought into commercial operation.

Subsequent to initial recognition, investment properties are measured at their fair value. Post the conversion to a ReIT, fair value adjustments are transferred to a non-distributable reserve in the statement of changes in equity.

Investment property is maintained, upgraded and refurbished, where necessary, in order to preserve or improve the capital value as far as it is possible to do so. Maintenance and repairs which neither materially add to the value of the properties nor prolong their useful lives are charged against profit or loss.

Independent valuations are obtained on a rotational basis, ensuring that every property is valued at least once every three years by an external independent valuer. The directors value the remaining properties annually on an open-market basis. The calculations are prepared by considering the aggregate of the net annual rent receivable from the properties and, where relevant, associated costs, using the discounted cash flow method. This method takes projected cash flows and discounts them at a rate which is consistent with comparable market transactions. The discount rates reflect the risks inherent in the net cash flows and are constantly monitored by reference to comparable market transactions. Undeveloped land is valued in terms of the internationally accepted and preferred method of comparison.

Gains or losses on subsequent measurement or disposals of investment properties are recognised in profit or loss. Such gains or losses are excluded from the calculation of distributable earnings.

When properties comprise a portion that is held to earn rental or for capital appreciation, and another portion that is held for use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes, then these portions are accounted for separately only if these portions could be sold separately.

If they cannot be sold separately, the entire property is accounted for as an investment property only if an insignificant portion is held for use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes.

Investment property held under an operating lease relates to long-term land leases and is recognised in the Group’s statement of financial position at its fair value. This accounting treatment is consistently applied for all such long-term land leases.

1.4 Intangible assets1.4.1 Goodwill Goodwill that arises upon the acquisition of subsidiaries is included

in intangible assets. Where the net recognised amount of the identifiable assets

acquired and liabilities assumed exceeds the fair value of the consideration transferred (including the recognised amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree), this excess is recognised immediately in profit or loss (gain on bargain purchase).

Subsequent to initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

1.4.2 Other intangible assets other intangible assets that are acquired by the entity, which have

finite useful lives, are recognised initially at cost and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benefits of the asset to which it relates.

AccOUnTInG POlIcIES cOnTInUED

1.4.3 Amortisation Amortisation is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis

over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets, other than goodwill, from the date that they are available for use. Subsequently, the amortisation is transferred to a non-distributable reserve in the statement of changes in equity.

The residual value of the intangible asset is assessed as Rnil and the estimated total useful lives for the current and comparative periods are as follows:• Rights to manage investment property 15 years• Software development 20 years

Amortisation methods, useful lives and residual values are reassessed annually.

1.5 Equipment Items of equipment are recognised initially at cost and subsequently

measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Items of equipment are depreciated from the date they are ready for use. Depreciation is based on the cost of the asset less its residual value and recognised on a straight-line basis, over the current estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives of the assets for the current and comparative periods are: • Furniture and fittings 5 years• equipment 2 – 5 years

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reassessed annually.

Subsequent expenditure relating to an item of equipment is capitalised when it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the entity and its cost can be measured reliably.

All other subsequent expenditure is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.

1.6 Impairment The carrying amount of the Group’s non-financial assets, other than

investment property and deferred tax assets, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. For goodwill, the recoverable amount is estimated at each reporting date.

For the purpose of impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smaller group of assets that generate cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of the other assets or groups of assets (the cash-generating unit). The goodwill acquired in a business combination, for the purpose of impairment testing, is allocated to cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.

The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present values using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.

An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its estimated recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in respect of the cash-generating units are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the units and then to reduce the carrying amount of the other assets in the unit (group of units) on a pro rata basis.

Impairment losses in respect of goodwill are not reversed. In respect of other assets, impairment losses recognised in prior

periods are assessed at each reporting date for any indications that the loss has decreased or no longer exists. An impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in estimates used to determine the recoverable amount. An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

1.7 non-current assets held for sale Non-current assets, or disposal groups comprising assets and

liabilities, that are expected to be recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use, are classified as held for sale. Investment properties classified as held for sale are measured in accordance with IAS 40 Investment property at fair value with gains and losses on subsequent measurement being recognised in profit or loss.

1.8 Financial guarantee contracts A financial guarantee contract is a contract that requires the issuer

to make specified payments to reimburse the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payment when due in accordance with the original or modified terms of a debt instrument. These financial guarantee contracts are classified as insurance contracts as defined in IFRS 4 Insurance contracts.

A liability is recognised when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the contract and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognised is the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the contract at the reporting date. Where the effect of discounting is material, the liability is discounted. The discount rate used is a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.

The Group performs liability adequacy tests on financial guarantee contract liabilities to ensure that the carrying amount of the liabilities is sufficient in view of estimated future cash flows. When performing the liability adequacy test, the Group discounts all expected contractual cash flows and compares this amount to the carrying value of the liability. Where a shortfall is identified, an additional provision is made.

1.9 Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present legal or

constructive obligation as a result of a past event and it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation and, in addition, a reliable estimate of the amount can be made. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as a finance cost.

1.10 Ordinary shares ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly

attributable to the issue of ordinary shares are recognised as a deduction from equity.

1.11 Treasury shares Shares in the company held by Growthpoint Management Services

(Pty) Ltd and unvested restricted shares held for employeeparticipants in the Staff Incentive Scheme Trust are classified as treasury shares. The cost price of these shares, together with related

ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

transaction costs, is deducted from equity, but disclosed separately in the statement of changes in equity. The issued and weighted average number of shares is reduced by the treasury shares for the purposes of the basic and headline earnings per share calculations. The issued number of shares is not reduced by the treasury shares for the purpose of the dividend per share calculations. Dividends received on treasury shares are recognised directly in equity.

When treasury shares held for employee participants vest in such participants, the shares will no longer be classified as treasury shares, their cost will no longer be deducted from equity and their number will be taken into account for the purposes of basic and headline earnings per share calculations.

1.12 dividends Dividends and other distributions to the holders of equity instruments,

in their capacity as owners, are recognised directly in equity on the date of declaration.

1.13 Foreign currency Foreign currency transactions Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective

functional currencies of Group entities at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date.

The foreign currency gain or loss on monetary items is the difference between the amortised cost in the functional currency at the beginning of the period, adjusted for effective interest and payments during the period, and the amortised cost in foreign currency translated at the exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the date that the fair value was determined.

Foreign currency differences arising on retranslation are recognised in profit or loss. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.

Foreign operations The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill

and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated to the Group’s presentation currency (Rand) at exchange rates at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated to Rand at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions (an average rate per month is used).

When the Group disposes of only part of its interest in a subsidiary that includes foreign operations while retaining control, the relevant proportion of the cumulative amount is re-attributed to non-controlling interests.

Foreign currency differences on translation of the financial position and results of a foreign operation into the Group’s presentation currency are recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve (FCTR). When a foreign operation is disposed of, in part or in full, the relevant amount in the FCTR is transferred to profit or loss as part of the profit or loss on disposal.

1.14 non-distributable reserve The non-distributable reserve relates to items that are not

distributable to shareholders, such as fair value adjustments on the revaluation of investment property, long-term loans, borrowings and derivatives, the amortisation of intangible assets, share-based payment transactions, the straight-line lease income adjustment, non-cash charges, capital items, deferred taxation, bargain purchases and reserves with the non-controlling interest.

1.15 Leases The Group is party to numerous leasing contracts as the lessor of

property. All leases are operating leases, which are those leases where the Group retains a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership.

An adjustment is made to contractual rental income earned to bring to account in the current period the difference between the rental income that the entity is currently entitled to and the rental for the period calculated on a smoothed, straight-line basis over the period of the lease term. This does not affect distributable earnings.

The Group is party to leasing contracts as the lessee of some property andequipment. Leases are classifiedasoperating leaseswhere substantially all the risks and rewards associated with ownership of the asset are not transferred from the lessor to the lessee. operating lease rentals with fixed escalation clauses are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The resulting difference arising from the straight-line basis and contractual cash flows is recognised as an operating lease asset or operating lease liability.

1.16 Revenue recognition Revenue from the letting of investment property comprises gross

rental income and recoveries of fixed operating costs, net of value added tax. Rental income is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Recoveries of costs from lessees, where the entity merely acts as an agent and makes payment of these costs on behalf of lessees, are offset against the relevant costs.

1.17 Property letting commissions and tenant installations When considered material, letting commissions and tenant

installations are written off over the period of the lease. Lettingcommissions paid in respect of new developments are capitalised to the cost of the property.

1.18 Operating profit operating profit included in profit or loss represents the net

property income earned from investment property, adjusted for other operating expenses and income.

1.19 Taxation Income tax for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Income

tax is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity or other comprehensive income, in which case it is recognised in equity or other comprehensive income. Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income, after deducting the qualifying distribution for that year of assessment, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the

reporting date, and any adjustments to tax payable in respect of previous years. In accordance with the status as a ReIT, dividends declared meet the requirements of a qualifying distribution for the purposesof section25BBof the IncomeTaxAct,No. 58of 1962(Income Tax Act).

Deferred tax is recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognised for the following temporary differences: • The initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that

is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit.

• Goodwill that arises on initial recognition in a business combination. • Differences relating to investments in subsidiaries and jointly

controlled entities to the extent that the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

No deferred tax was recognised on the fair value of investment property. Investment property will be realised through sale, and subsequent to the conversion to a ReIT, capital gains tax is no longer applicableintermsofsection25BBoftheIncomeTaxAct. The deferred tax relating to the amortisation of the intangible asset is initially recognised in profit or loss and is subsequently transferred to a non-distributable reserve in the statement of changes in equity. The amount of deferred tax recognised is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously.

A deferred tax asset is recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.

Dividends received by or accrued to South African tax residents are exempt from dividend withholding tax, but will be included in the gross income of such shareholders and will not be exempt from the income tax in terms of the exclusion to the general dividend exemption contained in section 10(1)(k)(i)(aa) of the Income Tax Act because they are dividends distributed by a ReIT. With effect from 1 January 2014, any dividend received by a non-resident from a ReIT will be subject to dividend withholding tax at 15%, unless the rate is reduced in terms of any applicable agreement for the avoidance of double taxation between South Africa and the country of residence of the non-resident shareholder. Dividends received by non-resident shareholders from a ReIT will not be taxable as income and instead will be treated as ordinary dividends which are exempt from income tax in terms of the general dividend exemption section 10(1)(k) of the Income Tax Act.

Withholding tax relating to foreign distributions received is recognised as part of the tax expense, and the financial results are reflected at the gross amounts, before withholding tax.

1.20 Borrowing costs Borrowingcosts incurredonqualifyingassetsarecapitaliseduntil

such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use.Qualifyingassetsarethosethatnecessarilytakeasubstantialperiod of time to prepare for their intended use. Capitalisation is suspended during extended periods in which active development is interrupted.

All other borrowing costs are expensed in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred using the effective interest method.

1.21 Employee benefits 1.21.1 Short-term benefits The cost of all short-term employee benefits is recognised during

the period in which the employee renders the related service. Short-term employee benefits are measured on an undiscounted basis. The accrual for employee entitlements to salaries, bonuses, staff incentive schemes and annual leave represents the amount which the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay as a result of employees’ services provided up to the reporting date.

1.21.2 Defined contribution plans A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan

under which an entity pays fixed contributions to a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. obligations for contributions to the defined contribution provident plan are recognised as an employee benefit expense in profit or loss in the periods during which related services are rendered by employees. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in future payments is available.

1.21.3 Other long-term employee benefits Prior to the conversion to a ReIT, the Group’s net obligation in respect of

long-term employee benefits, other than the provident plan, was the amount of future benefits that employees have earned in return for their service in prior periods in respect of the 8,5 million linked units allocated to employees when the management “buy-in” transaction was done. The benefit was discounted to determine its present value, and the fair value of any related assets was deducted. The discount rate was the yield at the reporting date on AA credit-rated bonds that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Group’s obligations. The calculation was performed using the projected unit credit method. Any actuarial gains or losses were recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arose. The grant of these linked units was accounted for under IAS 19 Employee benefits.

1.21.4 Share-based payment transactions In respect of linked units allocated to employees, subsequent to the

8,5 million linked units relating to the management “buy-in” transaction but before the conversion to a ReIT, the grant-date fair value of the linked unit payment award granted to employees was recognised as an employee expense, with a corresponding increase in liabilities, over the period that the employees became unconditionally

ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

entitled to the awards in terms of IFRS 2 Share-based payment transactions. The liability was remeasured at each reporting date and at settlement date based on the fair value of the linked units. Any changes in the liability were recognised as employee benefit expenses in profit or loss.

After the conversion to a ReIT, the grant-date fair value of share-based payment awards granted to employees is recognised as an employee expense, with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period that the employees become unconditionally entitled to the awards. The amount recognised as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards for which the related service and non-market performance conditions are expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognised as an expense is based on the number of awards that meet the related service and non-market performance conditions at the vesting date.

1.22 Segment reporting Determination and presentation of operating segments The Group determines and presents operating segments based on

the information that is provided internally to the executive Management Committee (exco), the Group’s operating decision-making forum.

An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Group’s other components. An operating segment’s operating results are reviewed regularly by exco to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available.

Segment results that are reported to exco include items directly attributable to a segment or a region, as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis. Unallocated items are reported by location and mainly comprise long-term loans granted, intangible assets, derivatives, trade and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, debentures, deferred tax, other non-current liabilities (borrowings), trade and other payables, and the related income and expenses to these items.

Segment capital expenditure is the total cost incurred during the period on investment property, including costs incurred on the investment property of the V&A Waterfront, as well as other joint ventures.

1.23 Key judgements and sources of estimation uncertainty The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS

requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected. Information

regarding judgements that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements, as well as the key sources of estimation uncertainty, is set out in: • Note 1.2 Financial instruments • Note 1.3 Investment property • Note 1.19 Taxation• Note 30 Deferred taxation

1.24 Standards and interpretations applicable to the group not yet effective

There are new or revised accounting standards and interpretations in issue that are not yet effective. These include the following standards and interpretations that are material to the business of the entity and which may have an impact on future financial statements, or those for which the impact has not as yet been assessed. These standards were not early adopted.

IAS 32 Financial instruments – presentation (amendments) IAS 32 (amended) will be adopted by the Group for the first time for

its financial reporting period ending 30 June 2015. The amendment will be applied retrospectively.

The amendments clarify that an entity currently has a legally enforceable right to set-off if that right is not contingent on a future event, and enforceable both in the normal course of business and in the event of default, insolvency or bankruptcy of the entity and all counterparties. The amendments further clarify that gross settlement is equivalent to net settlement if, and only if, the gross settlement mechanism has features that eliminate or result in insignificant credit and liquidity risk, and process receivables and payables in a single settlement process or cycle.

The impact on the financial statements for the Group has not yet been estimated.

IFRS 9 Financial instruments IFRS 9 will be adopted by the Group for the first time for its financial

reporting period ending 30 June 2019. The standard will be applied retrospectively, subject to transitional provisions.

IFRS 9 addresses the following and will replace the relevant sections of IAS 39:• The classification and measurement of financial assets. • The classification and measurement of financial liabilities. • The derecognition of financial assets and liabilities.

Under IFRS 9 there are two options in respect of the classification of financial assets, namely, financial assets measured at amortised cost or at fair value. Financial assets are measured at amortised cost when the business model is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows and when they give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal outstanding. All other financial assets are measured at fair value.

embedded derivatives are no longer separated from hybrid contracts that have a financial asset host.

25Growthpoint Properties Limited Annual Financial Statements 2014

AccOUnTInG POlIcIES cOnTInUED

IFRS 9 has retained in general the requirements of IAS 39 for financial liabilities, except for the following two aspects:• Fair value changes for financial liabilities (other than financial

guarantees and loan commitments) designated at fair value through profit or loss, that are attributable to the changes in the credit risk of the liability, will be presented in other comprehensive income (oCI). The remaining amount of the fair value change is recognised in profit or loss. However, if this requirement creates or enlarges an accounting mismatch in profit or loss, then the whole fair value change is presented in profit or loss. The determination as to whether such presentation would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch is made on initial recognition and is not subsequently re-assessed.

• Derivative liabilities that are linked to and must be settled by delivery of an unquoted equity instrument whose fair value cannot be reliably measured, are measured at fair value.

IFRS 9 incorporates the guidance in IAS 39 dealing with fair value measurement and accounting for derivatives embedded in a host contract that is not a financial asset, as well as the requirements of IFRIC 9 Reassessment of embedded derivatives.

The impact on the financial statements for the Group has not yet been estimated.

IAS 36 Impairment of assets (amendments) IAS 36 (amended) will be adopted by the Group for the first time for

its financial reporting period ending 30 June 2015. The amendment will be applied retrospectively.

The amendment reverses the unintended requirement in IFRS 13 Fair value measurement to disclose the recoverable amount of every cash-generating unit to which significant goodwill or indefinite-life intangible assets have been allocated. Under the amendments, recoverable amount is required to be disclosed only when an impairment loss has been recognised or reversed.

The impact on the financial statements for the Group has not yet been estimated.

IFRS 15 Revenue from contracts with customers This standard replaces IAS 11 Construction contracts, IAS 18 Revenue,

IFRIC 13 Customer loyalty programmes, IFRIC 15 Agreements for the construction of real estate, IFRIC 18 Transfer of assets from customers and SIC-31 Revenue – barter of transactions involving advertising services.

The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after1January2017,withearlyadoptionpermittedunderIFRS.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

13. EaRnIngS PER SHaREThe directors are of the view that the disclosure of earnings per share, while obligatory in terms of IAS 33, Earnings per share,andtheJSEListingsRequirements, is not meaningful to investors as the basic profit includes fair value adjustments, as well as other non-distributable items. In terms of Circular 2/2013, issued by SAICA, both the fair value adjustment on investment property and debentures (applicable to periods prior to the conversion to a ReIT) are added back in the calculation of headline earnings per linked unit. The circular does not make provision for the fair value adjustment on non-current financial liabilities, accounting adjustments required to account for lease income on a straight-line basis, as well as other non-cash accounting adjustments that do not affect distributable earnings, to be added back. The calculation of distributable earnings and distribution per share/linked unit (note 12) is more meaningful.

14. PROPERTY aSSETS CoNTINUeD14.1 Fair value of investment property for accounting purposes continued

South african portfolioCommentary on discount ratesThe discount rate applied was derived using an appropriate capitalisation rate and adding a growth rate based on market-related rentals, testing this for reasonableness by comparing the resultant Rand rate per m2 against comparative sales of similar properties in similar locations.

Commentary on capitalisation ratesInvestor interest in properties across all sectors remains robust with competition having increased for the small amount of prime stock that does come onto the market. As a result of this, yields have fallen in general, especially in the prime market. Average capitalisation rates and discount rates have dropped over the year to take this trend into account.

Commentary on expected vacancy periods and rental growth ratesHistoric trends with regard to vacancy periods experienced on the re-letting of vacant space, coupled with the Group’s emphasis on tenant retention, indicate that the expected vacancy period applied in the 2014 valuation best approximates the actual experience. With inherent in-force rental increases at above 8% per annum (2013: 8%) and expense growth stabilised, the expected rental growth rate for the 2014 valuations is considered reasonable.

gOZ portfolioAt the reporting date, the average discount rate utilised has decreased by 20 basis points. over the same period the implied property risk premium, which is the spread between the average discount rate and the 10-year Australian government bond rate, reduced by approximately 90 basis points. The capitalisation rate applied to the industrial sector was benchmarked by several large sales over the past 24 months. The office sector capitalisation rate was impacted by the sales activity that has picked up over the last six to 12 months, especially in the A-grade office market.

The opening balance relates to three investment properties in the Retail sector, three investment properties in the office sector and three investment properties in the Industrial sector. In the current year, eight of the investment properties were disposed of for R480 million and one was transferred back into investment properties as the sale was cancelled.

Sale agreements have been entered into for a further eight properties; two in the Retail sector, three in the office sector and three in the Industrial sector, with a fair value of R265 million at year-end.

The following table shows the valuation technique used in measuring the fair value of investment property, as well as the significant unobservable inputs used:

Valuation techniques Significant unobservable inputs

Inter-relationship between key unobservable inputs and fair value measurements

Discounted cash flows: The valuation model considers the present value of net cash flows to be generated from the property, taking into account expected rental and expense growth rates, vacant periods, lease incentive costs such as rent-free periods and other costs not recovered from tenants. The expected net cash flows are discounted using a discount rate. The discount rate applied is derived using an appropriate capitalisation rate and adding a growth rate based on market-related rentals, testing this for a reasonableness by comparing the resultant Rand rate per m2 against comparative sales of similar properties in similar locations. Among other factors, the capitalisation rate estimation considers the quality of the building, its location, the tenants’ credit quality and their lease terms.

– expected market rental growth (6%–7%,weightedaverage6.2%).

– expected expense growth estimated (7%–8%,weightedaverage7.5%).

– Vacant periods (average three months after the expiry of each lease).

– occupancy rate (90% – 95%, weighted average 92.5%).

– Rent-free periods (two months).– Discountrates(12.25%–17.5%,weighted

average 14.2%).– Reversionarycaprate(6.75%–12.5%,

weighted average 8.2%).– Capitalisationrate(6.75%–12.5%,

weighted average 8.25%).

The estimated fair value would increase/(decrease) if:– expected market rental growth was higher/

(lower);– expected expense growth was lower/

(higher);– vacant periods were shorter/(longer);– the occupancy rate was higher/(lower);– rent-free periods were shorter/(longer);– discount rate was lower/(higher); and– reversionary capitalisation rate was lower/

(higher).

The fair value measurement for investment property of R69 913 million (2013: R54 231 million) has been categorised as level 3 under the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs to the valuation technique used. Refer to note 44.2 for the level 3 reconciliation.

LISTEd InVESTmEnTS CoNTINUeDGrowthpointconcludedagreementswithvariousinstitutionalunitholdersofAcucapPropertiesLtd(Acucap)andSycomPropertyFund(Sycom)toacquire 64 million Acucap linked units at a switch ratio of 1.9 Growthpoint ordinary shares for each Acucap linked unit, and 63 million Sycom participatory units at a switch ratio of 1.102 Growthpoint ordinary shares for each Sycom participatory unit acquired. This represents a 34.9% interest in Acucap and 23.2% interest in Sycom. These investments provide Growthpoint with indirect exposure to Acucap and Sycom’s combined R18,4 billion retail and office portfolios.

on 30 June 2014, Growthpoint received distributions amounting to R165 million from these listed investments, which have been included in distributable earnings.

In terms of the indicators stipulated in IAS 28 Investment in associates, Growthpoint does not have significant influence over these investments and consequently these investments have been accounted for as available-for-sale investments.

After the reporting date, Growthpoint participated in a Sycom unit swap for Acucap units, in terms of an offer by Acucap (note 41.2).

Software development Growthpoint is in the process of developing a new property management and accounting software system that will include an asset identification programme. Costs incurred in the development are capitalised and implementation is expected in the 2016 financial year.

amortisationThe amortisation is recognised as a non-cash item and is excluded from the shareholders’/unitholders’ distribution calculation. The remaining amortisation period of the rights to manage the property is nine years.

Impairment testing for cash-generating unit containing goodwillFor the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to the Group’s management services entity, which represents the property administration and management business within the Group where goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes.

The recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit was based on its value in use. It was determined that the recoverable amount was higher than the carrying amount and therefore no impairment loss was recognised. The recoverable amount was calculated by discounting the future cash flows generated from the continuing use of the unit and was based on the following key assumptions from discussions with management of GrowthpointManagementServices(Pty)Ltd,andpastexperience:a) The management contract will continue on similar terms to the agreement that was in place before the acquisition transaction, which had

the following terms:– Asset management fee was calculated at 0.50% of the “enterprise value”.– enterprise value was measured by taking the sum of the nominal value of external debt plus market capitalisation.

b) Lettingcommissiononnewdealswascalculatedat100%ofrecommendedSouthAfricanPropertyOwnersAssociation(SAPOA)tariffswhileletting commission on renewals was calculated at 50% of recommended SAPoA tariffs.

c) Collection fees range from 1% to 4% of cash collected on a property-by-property basis.d) SalariesareinrespectoffunctionspreviouslyperformedbyInvestecPropertyGroupLimited(IPG).e) operating expenditure was based on discussions with the previous property managers and after consideration of historic costs, which included

rental of premises, IT systems and support, marketing and other expenses necessary for operating a listed company.f) A discount rate of 10% (2013: 10%) was applied in determining the recoverable amount of the unit. The discount rate was estimated based on

the Group’s weighted average debt.

There are no expected significant changes to the assumptions.

The discounted cash flow was performed over a nine-year period (2013: 10-year period), which took into account the remaining period of the contract that existed and that the contract would be renewed for another 10-year period.

As part of the ReIT conversion, Growthpoint converted the linked unit capital structure to an all-equity capital structure, in order to align the capital structure with the capital structures of international ReITs. The restructuring resulted in an increase in share capital of R20,3 billion, and an increase in the non-distributable reserve of R16,3 billion. The non-distributable reserve mainly relates to cumulative fair value adjustments on investment property that were previously accounted for as a debenture fair value adjustment. Refer to note 26.

As part of the ReIT conversion, the cumulative debenture fair value adjustments were reversed to the non-distributable reserve (note 22). These fair value adjustments relate to capital items that were not distributed to the linked unitholders in the past. In line with Growthpoint’s objective, not to distribute capital profits, all non-distributable items accounted for in profit or loss, such as the fair value adjustments (excluding the NCI’s portion of the fair value adjustments), straight-line lease income adjustments, non-cash charges, capital items and deferred taxation were transferred to the non-distributable reserve in the current year.

After the conversion to an all-equity structure, the grant-date fair value of share-based payment awards granted to employees is recognised in the non-distributable reserve (note 29).

The decrease in the fair value of the listed investments is directly accounted for in the non-distributable reserve.

After the conversion to a ReIT, the fair valuation of GoZ is based on the net asset value. The additional fair value adjustments raised in prior years of R2,1 billion to account for GoZ at the market value have been reversed.

LinkedunitswereissuedfortheacquisitionofthepropertyservicesbusinessesfromtheInvestecPropertyGroupLimitedinFY2008andthemajorityof the payment related to an intangible asset that was allocated to equity as a non-distributable reserve. All transactions related to the acquisition, such as the amortisation of the intangible asset and the related deferred tax thereon, will be transferred to the non-distributable reserve.

The reserves with NCI relate to further acquisitions of GoZ made by Growthpoint.

Share incentive schemes were introduced for employees that were employed after the management “buy-in” transaction, as well as a scheme to replace the initial scheme after the last vesting in September 2011. The shares allocated will vest with the beneficiaries over a period of five years, in tranches of 0% in year one and 25% per year thereafter. The staff share costs relating to these schemes are accounted for as personnel expenses and asset management costs and are included in the calculation of distributable income.

After the conversion to a ReIT, Growthpoint now accounts for the staff share schemes as equity-settled share-based payments. This is as a result of converting the linked debenture structure to an all-equity capital structure. This reserve is accounted for as a non-distributable reserve (note 25).

The share/linked unit awards granted to employees have been valued at the market price of Growthpoint’s shares/linked units at measurement date, adjusted for the distributions not receivable by employees before the vesting date. An expected growth rate was taken into account on the share/linked unit price and this was discounted back to measurement date.

It was essential for Growthpoint to ensure the retention of its key staff and the alignment of management’s interests with that of Growthpoint shareholders. To meet the retention objective, Growthpoint has implemented an option award under its existing scheme rules during the current year that offers participants retention value from the award date and ensures a perfect alignment with the interests of shareholders over a relatively long period.

Growthpoint issued reducing strike price options. each option gives the option holder the right to acquire one Growthpoint share at the reducing strike price at the vesting date. The options were granted on 1 April 2014 with an initial strike price of R11.43 based on a 50% discount to the Growthpoint 30-day clean VWAP price as traded on the JSe on that date.

each option’s strike price will, on a material basis, be adjusted by:– increasing the strike price by 8.25% per annum compounding on each distribution payment date– decreasing the strike price by the actual distribution per share

The options simulate a share purchase scheme that is funded by 50% with debt.

These options will vest over the next eight years as follows:– 2015: 0%–2016–2017:10%perannum– 2018 – 2020: 20% per annum– 2021 – 2022: 10% per annum

The inputs used in the measurement of the fair values at grant date of the equity-settled share-based payment plans were as follows:

Taking into account the vesting over four, five and eight years, the probability of staff leaving was estimated as 5% in the first year and an additional 10% in subsequent years (2013: 5% in the first year and an additional 10% in subsequent years).

GrowthpointconvertedtoaREIT,witheffectfrom1July2013.Section25BBoftheIncomeTaxActallowsforthedeductionofthequalifyingdistribution paid to shareholders, but the deduction is limited to taxable income. To the extent that no tax will be payable in future as a result of the qualifying distribution, no deferred tax was raised on items such as the straight-line lease income adjustment and the fair valuation of non-current financial liabilities.

IAS 12 Income taxes (amended) requires the sale rate to be applied, unless rebutted, when calculating deferred tax on the fair value adjustments on investment property. After the conversion to a ReIT, capital gains taxation is no longer applicable on the sale of investment property in terms of section25BBoftheIncomeTaxAct.Thedeferredtaxrateappliedtoinvestmentpropertyatthesaleratewillthereforebe0%.Consequently,nodeferred tax was raised on the fair value adjustments on investment property.

Allowances relating to immovable property can no longer be claimed and if a ReIT sells immovable property, the allowances claimed in previous years will be recouped. A deferred tax liability was raised in this respect.

The deferred tax liability on the intangible asset relates to the right to manage the property assets.

The deferred tax on the investment in GoZ is based on the presumption that the investment will be realised through sale and capital gains tax will be payable in Australia.

* The IFRS charge is a calculation based on the present value of total awards made to employees that will vest in future years, compared to the amount calculated in the prior year, arriving at the expense accounted for in profit or loss. It should be noted that the amount estimated here will differ significantly from the actual expense in the current and future years, which is based on the number of shares that vested, calculated at the price at which they were exercised. No attrition is taken into account and the calculation is based on the principal actuarial assumptions set out in note 29 to the financial statements. The IFRS charge for the year ended 30 June 2013 includes units that vested in FY13 that directors only exercised in FY14 due to the units being restricted in terms of a closed period: LN Sasse (424 875), EK de Klerk (210 493) and executives (87 618).

44.3 Other financial risk management considerationsThe financial instruments of the Group consist mainly of cash and cash equivalents, including deposits with banks, long-term borrowings, derivative instruments, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables, long-term loans and linked unitholders for interest and dividends. The Group purchases or issues financial instruments in order to finance operations and to manage the interest rate risks that arise from these operations and the source of funding.

The Group has exposure to the following risks from its use of financial instruments:– Credit risk– Market risk–Liquidityrisk

TheBoardofDirectors hasoverall responsibility for the establishment andoversightof theGroup’s riskmanagement framework.TheBoardestablished the Risk Management Committee, which is responsible for developing and monitoring the Group’s risk management policies. The Risk ManagementCommitteereportsregularlytotheBoardofDirectorsonitsactivities.

The Group’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Group, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Group’s activities.

The Risk Management Committee oversees how management monitors compliance with the Group’s risk management policies and procedures, and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the Group. The Risk Management Committee is assisted in its oversight role by Internal Audit. Internal Audit undertakes both regular and ad hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to both the Audit Committee and the Risk Management Committee.

44.4 Credit risk Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from long-term loans granted, derivative assets, trade receivables, as well as cash and cash equivalents. There is no significant concentration of credit risk as exposure is spread over a large number of counterparties.

Exposure to credit riskThe carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date was:

BEE 1 consortiumTherighttorepayment intermsoftheBEE loan issubordinatedtotherightsofthesenior lendersand junior lenders.ThesharesareheldbyGrowthpoint as collateral in the event that the Group is called upon to provide credit support.

BasedonthetotaldebtoutstandinginrespectoftheBEE1consortium’sloans,acalculationwasperformedtodeterminethebreakevenshare/unitprice at which Growthpoint’s loan will be recoverable. Assuming distribution growth is in line with budgets and that an annual return of 5% (2013: 5%) on the assets held by the consortium is achieved, the breakeven share/unit price before Growthpoint is at risk of non-payment in 2015 was calculatedatR12.00(2013:R9.72)perGrowthpointshare/linkedunit.

Rabie Property Group (Pty) LtdThe credit risk of this loan is mitigated by the security that is provided to Growthpoint:– a cession of security agreement, in terms of which the borrower cedes the insurances and all of its rights under the building contract, including

guarantees– a continuing covering mortgage bond – a suretyship by Century City Trust for the obligations of the borrower.

323 Festival Street (Pty) LtdThe credit risk of this loan is mitigated by the security that is provided to Growthpoint:– a continuing covering mortgage bond– a cession of rental and insurance proceeds– a cession of the insurance policies– a suretyship by Isivuno-Apex for the obligations of the borrower in terms of the loan agreement– a pledge and security cession by Isivuno-Apex of its share in and claims against the borrower, as security for its obligation in terms of the

suretyship.

(b) Derivative assets and cash and cash equivalentsexposure to credit risk is limited by investing in liquid funds and entering into derivative financial instruments with counterparties who have a high percentage tier-one capital and strong credit ratings assigned by international credit rating agencies.

(c) Trade receivablesThe Group’s exposure to credit risk is mainly in respect of tenants and is influenced by the individual characteristics of each tenant. The Group’s widespread tenant base reduces credit risk.

Management has established a credit policy under which each new tenant is analysed individually for creditworthiness before the Group’s standard payment terms and conditions are offered which include, in the majority of cases, the provision of a deposit of at least one month’s rental. When available, the Group’s credit review includes external ratings. UNdeposit is a campaign that was launched during the 2013 financial year, whereby tenants pay a non-refundable fee at the inception of a lease period, instead of the normal tenant deposit. Tenants are analysed individually for creditworthiness to determine if they are eligible for the UNdeposit facility fee and this also determines the extent of the non-refundable fee payable by them.

Impairment losses have been recorded for those debts where recovery was not reasonably assured at year-end. The maximum credit exposure at the reporting date was R41 million (2013: R30 million), of which R15 million (2013: R14 million) has been provided for.

(a) Interest rate risk and derivatives TheGroup is exposed to interest rate risk and adopts a policyof ensuring that at least 75%of its exposure to changes in interest ratesonborrowings is on a fixed-rate basis. This is achieved by entering into “receive variable” and “pay fixed” interest rate swaps. All such transactions are carried out within the guidelines set by the Risk Management Committee. As a consequence, the Group is exposed to fair value interest rate risk in respect of the fair value of its fixed-rate financial instruments, which will not have an impact on distributions. Short-term receivables and payables and investments are not directly exposed to interest rate risk.

As at 30 June 2014, for the South African operations, it is estimated that for a 1% increase in interest rates, the interest expense will increase by R35,6 million for the year (2013: R12,4 million) and therefore the profit would decrease by this amount.

As at 30 June 2014, for the Group, it is estimated that for a 1% increase in interest rates, the interest expense will increase by R51,2 million for the year (2013: R20,2 million) and therefore the profit would decrease by this amount.

These amounts are determined by calculating 1% on the amount of effective floating interest rate liabilities (i.e. total nominal liabilities net of swaps and fixed interest rate loans).

(b) Currency risk and derivatives The Group’s exposure to currency risk relates only to the investment in GoZ. Forward exchange contracts are derivatives and are acquired to limit exposure to currency fluctuations.

Growthpoint held the following open forward exchange contracts at year-end:

amount (bought)/sold average exchange rate maturity date Purpose

AUD22,0 million R9.90:AUD1 15 Sep 14 GoZ final 2014 income distributionAUD21,1 million R10.11:AUD1 6 Mar 15 GoZ interim 2015 income distributionAUD9,1 million R10.46:AUD1 8 Sep 15 GoZ final 2015 income distributionAUD3,1 million R10.77:AUD1 7Mar16 GoZ interim 2016 income distributionAUD3,1 million R11.02:AUD1 6 Sep 16 GoZ final 2016 income distribution(AUD14,0 million) R9.72:AUD1 15 Sep 14 GoZ final 2014 distribution re-investment plan

It is estimated that for the final distribution for 2014 from GoZ, a R1.00 increase/decrease in the spot exchange rate to AUD would increase/decreasetheGroup’sexpectedprofitbeforetaxationbyR4,7million;83%ofanticipateddistributionishedged(2013:Rnil,100%oftheanticipateddistribution is hedged).

It is estimated that for the distribution for 2015 from GoZ, a R1.00 increase/decrease in spot exchange rate to AUD would increase/decrease the Group’s expected profit before taxation by R31,0 million (52% of the anticipated distribution is hedged).

(c) Other market price riskThe Group is exposed to equity price risk, which arises from the investment in Acucap and Sycom, reflected under listed investments. The primary goal of the investment is to provide the Group with indirect exposure to the retail and office portfolios of Acucap and Sycom.

The Group’s listed equity investments in Acucap and Sycom are listed on the Johannesburg Stock exchange. These investments are measured at fair value and changes therein are recognised in other comprehensive income and presented in a non-distributable reserve in equity. A 2% increase in the share prices of Acucap and Sycom at the reporting date would have increased profit and equity by R89 million (FY13: nil); an equal change in the opposite direction would have decreased profit and equity by R89 million (FY13: nil).

44.6 Liquidity risk LiquidityriskistheriskthattheGroupwillnotbeabletomeetitsfinancialobligationsastheyfalldue.TheGroup’spolicyistoseektominimiseits exposure to liquidity risk by balancing its exposure to interest rate risk and to refinance risk. In effect the Group seeks to borrow for as long as possible at the lowest acceptable cost. The Group regularly reviews the maturity profile of its financial liabilities and seeks to avoid concentration of maturities through the regular replacement of facilities, and by using a selection of maturity dates.

The tables below set out the maturity analysis of the Group’s financial liabilities based on the undiscounted contractual cash flows.

In terms of various covenants that Growthpoint is committed to in terms of its external borrowings, the maximum value of external borrowings as a percentage of the value of property assets is 50% (including the investment in the V&A Waterfront, other equity-accounted investments and listed investments). In practice, Growthpoint aims to keep gearing levels between 30% and 40% over the long term.
