Distributable income from the South African portfolio increased by 8,8% compared to the six month period ended
31 December 2017. This was achieved despite the headwinds faced by the South African property sector, which included reduced
consumer demand and the resultant pressure on South African retailers. This performance bears testament to the high quality
of the group's South African property portfolio and its strong cash generating ability, which underpins the group's
financial strength and stability.
Distributable income from Hystead increased 16,6% from that for the six month period ended 31 December 2017. The
portfolio continues to exceed expectations with pleasing growth on the back of low vacancies and asset management
initiatives.
The investments in sub-Saharan Africa were affected by deteriorating economic and trading conditions in the region,
resulting in cash flow after servicing third-party borrowings and available for distribution to Hyprop, being
significantly lower than in the prior period.
Taking into account the increase in the number of shares in issue from 248,0 million to 255,5 million as a result of
the share issue in April 2018, the distribution per share increased by 2,5%, from 376,3 cents to 385,6 cents per share.

Despite the continuing difficult economic climate, the South African portfolio performed in line with expectations
bearing testament to the high-quality assets in the portfolio. Revenue increased by 8,0% relative to the six month period
ended 31 December 2017, underpinned by contractual rental escalations. Double-digit growth in rental income was achieved
at Clearwater Mall, Rosebank Mall and The Glen, partly as a result of the recent renovations and refurbishments at the
latter two malls.
Property expenses increased by 15,8% compared to the six month period ended 31 December 2017 mainly as a result of a
27,1% increase in rates and taxes, increases in electricity and power-related costs at rates above inflation, and higher
provisions for bad debts. Net municipal costs (after recoveries from tenants) increased by 35,7%. As a result, the
cost-to-income ratio increased on both a gross and a net basis.

Hyprop has objected to the new municipal valuations for its Johannesburg-based investment properties.
Distributable earnings from all of the shopping centres showed positive growth, with the exception of Woodlands
Boulevard which was impacted by renovations of the food court. Feedback from customers and tenants following the
reopening of the completed portions of the food court has been positive.
Other operating expenses decreased due to an increase in asset management fees received from Hystead and savings in
staff and related costs.
Tenant arrears
Tenant arrears continue to be closely monitored and managed. At 31 December 2018 rental arrears were R34,0 million,
compared to R18,9 million at 30 June 2018. This increase is partly seasonal, and reflects the difficulties facing
retailers, as well as back charges for increases in rates which were raised in November 2018. In line with the
increase in tenant arrears, an additional amount of R11 million was provided during the period for potential
doubtful debts.
Vacancies
Vacancy levels across the portfolio remain below industry averages and Hyprop continues to benefit from demand
by retailers for space in our malls. The overall vacancy rate reduced from 1,9% at 30 June 2018 to 1,6% at
31 December 2018. This was as a result of a decrease in vacancies at The Glen, where an additional 1 150m2
was let, Atterbury Value Mart which reduced vacancies by approximately 900m2, and Clearwater Mall, where the
last of the space vacated by Stuttafords two years ago was let.

Lettings
Leases of approximately 102 000m? (14% of total rentable area of the space) expire in the current financial year.
To date, 56 970m2 have been renewed at a reversion rate of negative 2,2% and an average escalation rate of 7,3%.
At 31 December 2018, Edcon occupied 66 781m2 of space in Hyprop malls. This represented 9,2% of gross lettable area,
and 7,6% of rental income in South Africa. Since June 2018, Hyprop has worked with Edcon to reduce their space
requirements. Agreement has been reached with Edcon for 7 563m2 to be returned in the short term. New tenants have
been secured for most of this space and Hyprop is confident of its ability to re-let the balance.
Hyprop has agreed to support Edcon as part of its restructuring proposal, which may include Hyprop subscribing for an
equity interest in Edcon. Based on current estimates, the financial effect of the transaction, should it be implemented,
will be a reduction in Hyprop's distributable earnings of 0,8% in the 2019 financial year, and a further 2,3% reduction
in the 2020 financial year.
Valuations
The market value of the South African portfolio increased by R694,8 million (2,4%) from R29,0 billion at
30 June 2018 to R29,7 billion at 31 December 2018. The average exit cap rate used in determining the market
value was unchanged at 6.5%.

Capital expenditure
The following projects were successfully completed during the period:
Hyprop's share
Shopping centre Project % Completion date
Woodlands Nu-Metro and Food court upgrade 100 Phase 2 - December 2018
Rosebank Mall Re-glazing of the curtain wall and
offices upgrades to the building auditorium 100 August 2018
Phase 3 of the Woodlands upgrade is scheduled for completion in April 2019.
Future capital expenditure projects will be carefully considered in the context of the difficult South African
economic environment. Hyprop, however, remains cognisant of the need to invest in our properties to ensure that
they remain relevant in an ever-changing retail, technology and on-line shopping environment.
Capital projects are planned for The Glen, where a portion of the space currently occupied by Edcon will be taken
over by Checkers, and for Canal Walk, which will be upgrading its food court and toilet facilities and developing a
new "Ratanga Junior" entertainment area. Further capital projects will become necessary as the group's exposure to
Edcon is managed down. These projects will involve the introduction of new high profile anchor tenants, with a view to
optimising the tenant mix, foot fall and retail turnovers.
Disposals
The sale of Lakefield Office Park was finalised on 4 January 2019 and the sale proceeds have been received.
INVESTMENTS IN SOUTH-EASTERN EUROPE
Hyprop's investments in South-Eastern Europe are held through a UK company, Hystead, in which Hyprop has a 60%
interest. Hyprop has joint control of Hystead and accounts for Hystead as a financial asset.
The South-Eastern European portfolio continued to perform well during the period. Average rental rates and trading
densities at all of the malls have increased from 2017, despite the low inflation environments, contributing to growth in
net operating income and distributions. Turnover rentals increased as a result of the success of many of the larger
retail tenants in the portfolio.
Following the acquisitions of The Mall in Sofia, Bulgaria, and City Centre One East and City Centre One West in
Zagreb, Croatia in the second half of the 2018 financial year, Hystead attained critical mass in the region. Capital
projects of EUR25 million have been approved, or are planned, for the coming year. The projects include a major upgrade
to portions of the Mall in Sofia which will see the introduction of approximately 40 new retail outlets and an
exhibition court.
Distributable earnings
Distributable earnings from Hystead comprise dividends from Hystead and guarantee fees from PDI Investment
Holdings (PDI). Total distributable income from Hystead increased by 16,6% from R116,8 million for the period
ended 31 December 2017 to R136,2 million in the current period.
The guarantee fee is based on a percentage of the dividends declared by Hystead to PDI. As a result of the additional
in-country asset-backed finance raised by Hystead during the previous financial year, this percentage reduced to 11%
for the period ended 31 December 2018.
Dividends received from Hystead were positively impacted, in Rand terms, by foreign exchange rate hedges.
Hyprop share of investment property
At 31 December 2018, Hyprop's attributable share of the Hystead portfolio was R7,6 billion (EUR460 million)
(30 June 2018: R7,1 billion (EUR444 million)). The valuation of the European property portfolio is based on a
weighted average capitalisation rate of 7,5% (30 June 2018: 7,5%).
Vacancies

Hyprop is reviewing its portfolio of investments in Africa, with a view to reducing the exposure.
Trading conditions in Nigeria, Ghana and Zambia remain difficult with low economic growth, weakening currencies and
political instability. Challenges for tenants include logistical constraints in importing stock and maintaining stock
levels, and increases in effective occupancy costs as a result of currency devaluations. Landlords face a shortage of high
quality retailers following the withdrawal of a number of South African retailers from these markets, leading to growing
vacancy levels. In addition, increased competition from other malls impacted the performance at Manda Hill, which is
expected to recover given its dominant position in the market.
As a result of a decline in the operating performance at Ikeja City Mall, the directors reduced the valuation of the
property by R347,8 million in the current period, of which Hyprop's share is R260,9 million. Ikeja City Mall is reflected
in the consolidated statement of financial position at R1,8 billion after the positive effect of changes in the
Rand:Dollar exchange rate.
Good progress has been made in identifying potential buyers for certain of the African investments. As a result of
these initiatives, the market conditions described above and the operating performance of certain of the African
investments, other than Ikeja, the Hyprop directors have reviewed the valuations of the African investments and consider
it prudent to adjust these to align with current market conditions. This resulted in an impairment of Hyprop's investment
in AttAfrica and Manda Hill of R1,1 billion in the current period.
Distributable earnings
Accounting income from the African portfolio comprises trading profits from Ikeja City Mall and interest on loans
advanced by Hyprop Mauritius to AttAfrica and Manda Hill. As a consequence of the adverse trading and economic conditions
noted above, distributable earnings from the sub-Saharan African investments reduced from R40,0 million for the period
ended 31 December 2017 to R4,4 million in the current period. Distributable earnings are likely to remain at relatively
lower levels until there are recoveries in the economies in which we are operating.
Vacancies and foot count
Notwithstanding the difficult trading environment, foot counts at Ikeja City Mall and Accra Mall increased by 2% year
on year. Vacancy levels at Achimota and Kumasi malls reduced during the period, with vacancies in the other
sub-Saharan Africa malls increasing.
Exchange rates
The functional and reporting currencies for the investments in sub-Saharan Africa (excluding SA) and South-Eastern
Europe are the US Dollar and Euro, respectively. The relevant exchange rates used to convert foreign currency amounts
to Rands were as follows:
31 December 2018 30 June 2018
Half year-end Year-end
Average rate spot rate Average rate spot rate
R R R R
US Dollar 14,18 14,38 12,47 13,70
Euro 16,32 16,48 15,32 16,00
Realised average exchange rate - USD 12,53
Realised average exchange rate - Euro 17,04 14,80
The realised average exchange rate is the weighted average of the actual exchange rates at which foreign currency
dividends were received in South Africa and converted to Rand.
NET ASSET VALUE
The group's net asset value at 31 December 2018 was R99,87 per share, equating to a premium of 22,5% to the share
price at that date of R81,50.
Borrowings
In March 2018, Moody's Investor Services Inc (Moody's) conducted a rating review and placed Hyprop on a negative
outlook. On 13 February 2019, following a further review, Moody's lowered Hyprop's credit rating from Baa3 to Ba1.
Concurrently, Moody's lowered Hyprop's long-term national scale issuer rating to Aa3.za from Aa1.za and affirmed
the short-term national scale rating of Prime-1.za.
The main reason cited for the decrease in the rating is that Moody's estimates that Hyprop's debt-to-asset ratio,
adjusted for the full consolidation of Hystead, increased to 41% at 30 June 2018 from 33,4% in 2017, as a result of
debt funded acquisitions in Eastern Europe. Moody's calculate this ratio as 38,6% when considering only the portion of
the Hystead gross debt guaranteed by Hyprop. Moody's further stated that Hyprop will rely on external financing to cover
R5 billion of debt coming due in the next 18 months, including the Hystead debt that it guarantees.
Hyprop's debt-to-asset ratio, as calculated by Hyprop taking into account Hyprop's attributable share of the net
assets of Hystead, the full Hystead debt guaranteed by Hyprop, and the back-to-back security Hyprop holds from PDI
in relation to the guarantees, was 32,6% at 30 June 2018.
Hyprop has taken cognisance of Moody's comments and is taking steps to address the issues raised, including a review
of the local and off-shore funding strategies. Hyprop has historically been able to refinance its debt with no
difficulties and based on interactions with its major lenders, remains confident of its ability to continue to do so.
Details of the Group's borrowings (including Hystead borrowings guaranteed by Hyprop) are set out in the
table below.

South African debt
The South African bank debt is secured against South African investment property, while the DCM funding is unsecured.
On 17 September 2018, a 3,5-year unsecured corporate bond was issued, raising R250 million at an interest rate margin
of 1,44%.
US Dollar denominated debt
The Rand value of the US Dollar denominated debt increased from 30 June 2018 to 31 December 2018 mainly as a result of
an increase in the exchange rate used to translate the US Dollar debt to Rands. USD100 million of debt in Hyprop
Mauritius is due for refinancing in August 2019, discussions with potential lenders in respect of which have commenced.
Euro denominated debt
At 31 December 2018, Hyprop had guaranteed EUR360 million of interest-bearing loans advanced by banks to Hystead. This
debt is not consolidated in Hyprop's statement of financial position, however, the financial support results in the
recognition of a financial guarantee in Hyprop's statement of financial position. In exchange for providing guarantees
on a portion of the debt in excess of Hyprop's 60% shareholding in Hystead, Hyprop receives a credit enhancement fee
from PDI equivalent to 11% of the dividends declared by Hystead.
During the period, EUR183,1 million of bank loans advanced to Hystead were refinanced for three years at an average
interest rate of 2,0%. This resulted in new financial guarantees with an initial value of R196,6 million being
recognised, and the derecognition of financial guarantees of R33,7 million relating to the retired debt.
Board changes
As previously announced:
- Zuleka Jasper was appointed to the board as an independent non-executive director on 5 July 2018;
- Also on 5 July 2018, Wilhelm Nauta joined the board as an executive director;
- Laurence Cohen resigned as financial director with effect from 31 July 2018;
- Brett Till was appointed as CFO, effective 1 October 2018;
- With effect from 30 November 2018, Lindie Engelbrecht resigned from the board. Thabo Mokgatlha has replaced Lindie
as chair of the audit and risk committee and as a member of the remuneration and nominations committee with effect
from 30 November 2018;
- Morn? Wilken joined the board of directors as incoming CEO on 27 December 2018; and
- Pieter Prinsloo resigned as a director and CEO of Hyprop with effect from 30 January 2019. The board expresses its
gratitude and thanks to Pieter for his leadership.
Prospects
Hyprop expects growth in distributions per share for the year ending 30 June 2019 of approximately 2%. This is a
downward revision from the guidance provided in August 2018 of 5% to 7%, the main reasons for which are the decrease
in distributable earnings from operations in sub-Saharan Africa (other than SA), the anticipated impact of the Edcon
restructuring and the current difficult economic conditions in South Africa.
This guidance is based on the following key assumptions:
- Forecast investment property income is based on contractual rental escalations and market-related renewals;
- Appropriate allowances for vacancies have been incorporated into the forecast;
- No major corporate and tenant failures will occur, including Edcon;
- The proposed Edcon restructuring will commence on 1 April 2019;
- Earnings from offshore investments will not be materially impacted by exchange rate volatility or disruptions in
the financial markets; and
- Exchange rates (which have not been hedged) have been assumed at R13,50 and R15,50 to the US Dollar and Euro,
respectively.
The forecast has not been reviewed or reported on by the company's auditors.
Payment of dividend
A dividend of 385,55078 cents per share for the six months ended 31 December 2018 will be paid to shareholders as
follows:
2019
Last day to trade cum dividend Monday, 18 March
Shares trade ex dividend Tuesday, 19 March
Record date Friday, 22 March
Payment date Monday, 25 March
Shareholders may not dematerialise or rematerialise their shares between Tuesday, 19 March and Friday, 22 March 2019,
both days inclusive. Payment of the dividend will be made to shareholders on Monday, 25 March 2019. In respect of
dematerialised shareholders, the dividend will be transferred to the CSDP accounts/broker accounts on Monday,
25 March 2019. Certificated shareholders' dividend payments will be deposited on or about Monday, 25 March 2019.
An announcement relating to the tax treatment of the dividend will be released separately.
Basis of preparation
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements (the interim financial statements) for the six months ended
31 December 2018 were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, IAS 34 Interim
Financial Reporting, the SAICA Financial Reporting Guides as issued by the Accounting Practices Committee, and
Financial Pronouncements as issued by the Financial Reporting Standards Council and the requirements of the Companies
Act of South Africa.
All amendments to standards that are applicable to Hyprop for its financial year beginning 1 July 2018 have been
considered, and, except as described below, the accounting policies applied in these interim financial statements
are the same as those applied in the group's consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2018.
Based on management's assessment, the amendments to the applicable accounting standards and adoption thereof does
not have a material impact on the group's interim financial statements.
The group has adopted IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers and IFRS 9 Financial Instruments with effect from
1 July 2018.
The effects of initially applying these new standards are the following:
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments
(i) Classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities
In applying IFRS 9, the group had to reconsider the classification and measurement of financial assets and
liabilities. The following table and the accompanying notes set out the categories under IAS 39 and the new
measurement categories under IFRS 9 for each class of the group's financial assets as at 1 July 2018.
Original classification New classification
Financial assets under IAS 39 under IFRS 9
Financial asset - Hystead Designated as at FVTPL FVTPL
Derivative instruments - non-current Designated as at FVTPL FVTPL
Derivative instruments - current Designated as at FVTPL FVTPL
Loans receivable - non-current Amortised cost FVTPL and amortised cost
Loans receivable - current Amortised cost Amortised cost
Trade and other receivables Amortised cost Amortised cost
Cash and cash equivalents Amortised cost FVTPL and amortised cost
Certain loans receivable, previously classified at amortised cost, are now classified at FVTPL. The group
intends to hold the assets to maturity to collect contractual cash flows, however, these cash flows do not
consist solely of payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. Therefore they
do not qualify for classification at amortised cost in terms of IFRS 9.
IFRS 9 largely retains the existing requirements in IAS 39 for the classification and measurement of financial
liabilities. However, it eliminates the previous IAS 39 categories for financial assets of held to maturity,
loans and receivables and available for sale. The adoption of IFRS 9 has not had a significant effect on the
group's accounting policies related to financial liabilities and derivative financial instruments as the group
does not apply hedge accounting to its derivative financial instruments.
(ii) Calculation of impairment losses recognised on financial assets
IFRS 9 sets out new requirements for assessing the carrying amounts of financial assets at 1 July 2018 (the
date of initial adoption) and impairment requirements, including consideration of expected credit losses (ECLs)
and credit impaired financial assets. The application of IFRS 9 did not have any material effect on the carrying
amounts of financial assets at 1 July 2018. The loans receivable from AttAfrica and Manda Hill are not considered
to be credit impaired as interest payments continue to be made for a large proportion of the interest accrued on
these loans during the period.
Further disclosure with regard to the qualitative and quantitative impact of the implementation of IFRS 9 will
be provided in the full set of financial statements for the year ending 30 June 2019.
IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers
The adoption of IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers had no material impact on either the timing or amount
of the group's revenue.
Going concern
The interim financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis as the directors have reason to
believe that the company and its subsidiaries have adequate resources to continue operations for the foreseeable
future.
Executive management have already engaged with banks and advisers on refinancing the current portion of
interest-bearing borrowings of R2,5 billion. Hyprop has historically been able to refinance its debt with no
difficulties and, based on interactions with its major lenders, remains confident of its ability to continue
to do so.
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have not been reviewed or audited by Hyprop's independent
external auditors. The financial information was prepared under the supervision of Brett Till CA(SA) in his capacity
as chief financial officer.

Financial guarantees
Hyprop and PDI Investment Holdings Limited (PDI) have guaranteed EUR400,8 million of loans advanced by
banks to Hystead as follows:
- Hyprop EUR360,8 million (90%)
- PDI EUR40 million (10%)
PDI has provided back-to-back guarantees to Hyprop for a further EUR46,8 million (equivalent to 11,7%
of the EUR400,8 million guaranteed debt).
For the remaining EUR73,5 million of debt (18,3% of the EUR401 million guaranteed debts) which Hyprop has
guaranteed in excess of its pro rata 60% interest in Hystead, Hyprop receives 60% of the related dividends
declared to PDI from Hystead, which equates to 11% (60% x 18,3%) of the dividends paid by Hystead (the
credit enhancement fee).
This agreement is in place until May 2021, when the shareholders' agreement between Hyprop and PDI, as
shareholders in Hystead, expires.
The guarantees issued by Hyprop are recognised as financial liabilities on the statement of financial
position, initially at fair value.
During the financial period loans of EUR242 million (EUR202 million of which were guaranteed by Hyprop)
were refinanced and Hyprop provided new guarantees for EUR198 million of the new loan. This resulted in
the derecognition of the guarantees given in respect of the expired loans and recognition of the new
guarantees as financial liabilities.
The initial fair values of the guarantees issued are determined by an independent specialist and are
dependent on estimated credit spreads, forecast cash flows and forecast interest rates, which require
significant judgement.
