<strong>The</strong> <strong>Glanmore</strong> <strong>Property</strong> <strong>Fund</strong> <strong>Limited</strong>NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED HALF-YEARLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS1 PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES<strong>The</strong> following accounting policies have been applied consistently in dealing with items which are considered materialin relation to the <strong>Fund</strong>'s annual financial statements.Basis of accounting<strong>The</strong> half-yearly financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement on Half-Yearly FinancialReports as issued by the ASB. <strong>The</strong>y have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified by therevaluation of investment properties and interest rate derivatives, and in accordance with applicable United KingdomAccounting Standards and the Statement of Recommended Practice “Financial Statements of Authorised <strong>Fund</strong>s”issued by the Investment Management Association in October 2010, using accounting policies consistent with thoseapplied in the annual financial statements.Going ConcernAs at 30 June 2012, the <strong>Fund</strong> had classified £347.5m of bank loans, net of associated finance costs, as "creditors:amounts falling due within one year". Loan repayment requirements were £299.1m by April 2012 and £92.5m byAugust 2012. <strong>The</strong> <strong>Fund</strong> did not repay these loans on the due dates as the Board was in the process of negotiatingfurther loan agreements and standstill agreements were put in place. <strong>The</strong> Board of directors negotiated a revisedcredit facility with Canada Life on 19 October 2012 and signed a termsheet for a revised facility with RBS on 10December 2012. <strong>The</strong> revised Canada Life loan terms are for a principal sum of £60.9m with debt reductionmilestones to £35.0m in the first half of 2013, to £20.0m in the second half of 2013 and to £11.0m in the first half of2014 with the facility expiring at the end of 2014. <strong>The</strong> revised RBS loan terms are for a principal sum of £238.4m withaggregate debt reduction milestones of £7.5m in the first half of 2013 and £50m each subsequent half-year with thefinal repayment made by the end of October 2015.Following the negotiation of refinancing agreements with both RBS and Canada Life, the <strong>Fund</strong> Board has agreed astrategic plan. <strong>The</strong> forecast future cash flows are continually monitored by the Board to ensure that the <strong>Fund</strong> meetsits liabilities as and when they fall due, and the Board consider the <strong>Fund</strong> to be a going concern for the foreseeablefuture. However the secondary commercial property market continues to be volatile with the lack of available lendingand reduced appetite for secondary assets being causes for concern. Valuation falls and sales below expectationpose a risk to the <strong>Fund</strong> in meeting repayment targets as set by the lenders. This could result in the <strong>Fund</strong>’s lenderstaking enforcement action. <strong>The</strong> <strong>Fund</strong> has developed a good relationship with its lending banks over the years.Should the <strong>Fund</strong> breach or default on the terms of the revised credit facilities the Board considers its good trackrecord will help to minimise the risk of enforcement action being taken by the <strong>Fund</strong>’s lenders without first enteringinto negotiations with the <strong>Fund</strong>.Basis of consolidation<strong>The</strong> financial statements consolidate the results of the <strong>Fund</strong> and its subsidiaries drawn up to the relevant period enddate. <strong>The</strong> subsidiaries have been included in the Group financial statements using the acquisition method ofaccounting. Accordingly the Consolidated Statement of Total Return and the Consolidated Cash Flow Statementinclude the results of the subsidiaries.Participating redeemable preference sharesParticipating Redeemable preference shares are classified as a financial liability, as the shares are redeemable atthe request of the shareholder. As a consequence, the participating redeemable preference shares have beendisclosed as a liability on the balance sheet and dividends paid and equalisation have been described as financecosts in the Consolidated Statement of Total Return.13

Transaction costs directly applicable to thepurchase of investment properties are included within the initial cost of the property.Investment properties<strong>The</strong> valuation of investment property has been prepared on an open market basis as defined by the current editionof <strong>The</strong> Appraisal and Valuation Manual of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors. <strong>The</strong> open market valuemeans an opinion of the best price at which the sale of an interest in property would have been completedunconditionally for cash consideration on the date of valuation, assuming:(i)(ii)(iii)(iv)(v)a willing seller;that, prior to the date of valuation, there had been a reasonable period (having regard to the nature of theand the state of the market) for proper marketing of the interest, for the agreement of price and terms, andcompletion of the sale;that the state of the market, level of values and other circumstances were, on any earlierassumed date of exchange of contracts, the same as on the date of the valuation;that no account is taken of any additional bid by a prospective purchaser with special interest; andthat both parties to the transaction had acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion.Investment properties held under finance leases and leased out under operating leases are classified as investmentproperty and stated at fair value.Realised and unrealised gains and losses on investment propertiesIn accordance with FRS 3 “Reporting Financial Performance” profits and losses on properties sold during the periodare calculated by comparing net sales proceeds with book values. Realised surpluses and deficits on properties heldin previous years are accounted for as a transfer between the revaluation reserve and the profit and loss reserve.Unrealised gains and losses on the revaluation of the property portfolio are recognised in the ConsolidatedStatement of Total Return.Financial instrumentsFinancial assets and liabilities are recognised on the Group balance sheet when the Group becomes a party to thecontractual provisions of the instrument.Debtors – the Group’s principal debtors do not carry interest and are stated at their nominal value as reduced byappropriate allowances for estimated irrecoverable amounts.Financial liabilities and equity – financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance ofthe contractual arrangements entered into.

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Glanmore</strong> <strong>Property</strong> <strong>Fund</strong> <strong>Limited</strong>NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED HALF-YEARLY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)1 PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)Bank borrowings – interest bearing bank loans and overdrafts are initially recorded at cost, being the fair value of theconsideration received. After initial recognition, all interest bearing bank loans and overdrafts are subsequentlymeasured at amortised cost. Directly attributable transaction costs incurred in establishing the Group’s creditfacilities are deducted from borrowings on initial recognition and amortised over the lifetime of the facilities throughthe Consolidated Statement of Total Return.Trade and other creditors – trade and other creditors are not interest bearing and are recorded at their nominalvalue.Derivative financial instruments - the Group uses derivative financial instruments to manage its risk associated withinterest rate fluctuations on its bank loans and overdrafts.Derivatives are valued on the balance sheet at latest available market rates or at break cost. Any resulting gain orloss is included in other gains and losses in the Consolidated Statement of Total Return.Taxation<strong>The</strong> <strong>Fund</strong> and its subsidiaries are liable to United Kingdom income tax on its net rental income.<strong>The</strong> <strong>Fund</strong> and its Guernsey-registered subsidiaries are exempt from Guernsey income tax under the Income Tax(Exempt Bodies) (Guernsey) Ordinances 1989 and each such company has been charged an annual exemption feeof £600 for the year 2012 (2011: £600).<strong>The</strong> charge for taxation is accrued on a monthly basis, based on the profit for each month. This will be adjusted atthe year end to take into account taxation deferred because of timing differences between the treatment of certainitems for taxation and accounting purposes. Deferred taxation is provided using the liability method on all timingdifferences, calculated at the rate at which it is anticipated the timing difference will reverse.EqualisationEqualisation is the amount included in the purchase price of shares which represents their proportion of the netincome of the Group already accrued up to the date of purchase. If this charge were not made, the income whichexisting shareholders could expect to receive would be diluted every time new shares were created. This amount isrefunded to shareholders as part of their first distribution after the purchase of shares, except where the equalisationexceeds the distribution, in which case the difference is carried forward in an Equalisation Reserve.Distributions<strong>The</strong> <strong>Fund</strong> will distribute what it considers appropriate in the future with consideration being given to entering into theUK Reporting <strong>Fund</strong> regime in due course.15
