Hyprop`s shopping centres contributed 79% of total income for the year
(2007:84%).
Revenue from shopping centres, excluding Stoneridge which opened on 24
September, increased by 13.9%. Net income increased by 13.1% on a like-for-like
basis. Net income from offices was lower as a result of the disposal of two non-
core office buildings during the year.
The overall average rental growth from investment property was 14%, benefitting
from consistently high occupancy at Hyprop`s shopping centres with ongoing
demand for space despite of a challenging trading environment.
Total vacancies at year-end were 3.3% (2007: 0.75%). The increase is
attributable to vacancies at Stoneridge and Canal Walk offices.
Hyprop`s expense to income ratio improved to 20% from 22% in 2007.
The increase in net income from listed property securities is attributable to
the inclusion of Hyprop`s 36.7% interest in Sycom Property Fund ("Sycom") for
the full year.

Investment Property
Investment property was independently valued by Old Mutual Properties
(Proprietary) Limited using the discounted cash flow method. Development
property has been valued at cost.
The revaluation surplus in respect of investment property increased by R226
million. The board is satisfied that the valuation appropriately reflects the
increase in income from investment property and the scarcity value of Hyprop`s
assets.

Listed property securities
Hyprop`s interest in Sycom was valued at 31 December 2008 at R1.4 billion based
on the closing price at that date of R18.87 per unit.
BORROWINGS
Net borrowings at 31 December 2008 of R834 million equated to a gearing ratio of
8.9%.
The average interest rate on long-term loans of R900 million was 9.54%
(2007:9.54%). The interest rate was reduced to an average fixed rate of 9.37%
with effect from January 2009.
Subsequent to year-end, Hyprop raised R500 million to fund the completion of its
development programme, R450 million of which was drawn down in February 2009 at
a fixed rate of 9.40%.
NET ASSET VALUE
The net asset value per combined unit ("NAV") at year-end was R41.56,
representing a 4% increase on the NAV of R39.96 at the previous year-end.
Excluding deferred taxation, the NAV at year-end was R49.51 (2007:R48.51). This
is a 17.9% premium to the market price at year end of R42.00.
MANAGEMENT CONTRACT
Hyprop`s asset and property management agreements with Madison Property Fund
Managers expire on 31 December 2009, other than the property management
agreement in respect of The Glen which expires on 31 May 2009.
The board is considering various options with regard to the management of the
portfolio and an announcement will be made in due course.
DIRECTORATE
CEO Pieter Prinsloo resigned from the board with effect from 28 February 2009.
The board thanks Pieter for his seven years` service and his contribution to
Hyprop`s success. The board is in the process of identifying a suitable
replacement and an announcement in this regard will be made in due course.
PROSPECTS
Trading conditions are expected to remain difficult in the year ahead. However,
Hyprop is well positioned with quality real estate assets and a strong balance
sheet, which should minimise any adverse impact on distributable income brought
about by the current weak economic environment.
Projections indicate that, barring a significant deterioration in market
conditions, Hyprop`s distribution for the financial year ending 31 December 2009
will be between 328 cents and 332 cents per combined unit. This forecast has not
been reviewed or reported on by Hyprop`s auditors.
PAYMENT OF DEBENTURE INTEREST
Distribution 42 of 158 cents per combined unit for the six months ended 31
December 2008 will be paid to combined unitholders as follows:
March 2009
Last day to trade cum distribution Friday 20
Combined units trade ex distribuiton Monday 23
Record date Friday 27
Payment date Monday 30
Unitholders may not dematerialise or rematerialise their combined units between
Monday, 23 March 2009 and Friday, 27 March 2009.
BASIS OF PREPARATION
These annual financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), International Accounting
Standard IAS 34 `Interim Financial Reporting`, JSE Listing Requirements and the
requirements of the Companies Act.
The accounting policies are consistent with those applied in the most recent
audited financial statements for the prior financial year ended 31 December
2007.
Previously Hyprop`s interests in Canal Walk and The Glen were consolidated in
accordance with IAS 27: `Consolidated and separate financial statements` on the
basis that the co-ownership agreements afforded Hyprop control of the financial
and operating policies of these shopping centres. In terms of these co-
ownership agreements, material capital expenditure requires mutual consent of
the co-owners. In view of the recent significant increases in development costs,
most of the capital expenditure now being undertaken is material and accordingly
these centres are no longer considered to be controlled solely by Hyprop.
Hyprop`s interests in Canal Walk and The Glen have therefore been
proportionately consolidated and reflect Hyprop`s share of assets, liabilities,
income and expenditure.
In order to facilitate comparison, pro-forma figures for the comparable year, on
the basis of proportionate consolidation, have also been presented.
