Condensed Audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended
31 December 2009
Directors` commentary
Resilient`s distribution of 194,13 cents per linked unit for the financial year
ended 31 December 2009 is a 14,21% increase on the 169,98 cents distribution for
the 2008 financial year. These results were achieved in a difficult
macroeconomic environment with continued fallout from the global credit crisis
and the South African economy in recession for most of the period.
Resilient`s strategy is to invest in dominant retail centres in non-metropolitan
areas tenanted predominantly by national retailers. These centres outperformed
similar centres in metropolitan areas due to customers having lower levels of
personal debt and the underpin provided by increases in social spending.
Vacancies in the portfolio remained static at 3,2%. Most of the current
vacancies are at The Grove and The Galleria which opened during September and
November respectively. Vacancies are expected to decline during 2010. Arrears
and bad debts were lower than budgeted and no significant deterioration is
anticipated.
Resilient sold four industrial properties (Isando Business Park, City Deep
Industrial Park, Chemserve Spartan and its 25% interest in Montague Business
Park) to Capital Property Fund for R611,5 million and
18 properties to Fortress Income Fund Limited for R665,4 million. Resilient now
has a focused portfolio of 20 retail centres, three further centres under
development and a substantial listed property portfolio. The listed property
investments will be reduced to fund the development pipeline and property
acquisitions.
Resilient is taking advantage of the downturn in the construction cycle to enter
into contracts to develop new malls with the most reputable and competent
construction companies at attractive rates. Construction of the 75 000m2 GLA
Mall of the North and the 33 000m2 GLA Brits Mall commenced in 2009. The board
intends to commence construction of Pick `n Pay Tzaneen and Burgersfort Mall
before the cycle turns, but this is dependent on delivery of services.
1 PROPERTY DEVELOPMENTS
Arbour Town
Resilient owns 10% of the Arbour Town precinct which comprises of Arbour
Crossing (a value centre), The Galleria (a 85 286m2 GLA regional mall) and 102
hectares of additional zoned land for future development. The development faces
a number of challenges including traffic congestion which will only be rectified
in 2011. The Galleria is larger than warranted by current market demand and this
will result in higher vacancies in the short term. The Galleria, however, traded
well over the Christmas period.
We are confident that the Arbour Town developments possess critical mass and are
attractive long term investments. Resilient`s holding is, however, relatively
insignificant and the strategy remains to increase its interest to at least 25%
or to dispose of these investments.
Brits Mall
This 33 000m2 GLA mall will be anchored by Checkers, Edgars, Pick `n Pay and
Woolworths and other tenants include the Foschini, Truworths and Pepkor groups.
Construction of the mall commenced in October 2009 and the mall is scheduled to
open in November 2010. The projected yield of this development is 9,5%.
Resilient has an 80% interest in this development.
The Grove
This 40 000m2 GLA mall is 50% owned with Keystone Investments as Resilient`s
partner. The mall is anchored by Edgars, Pick `n Pay and Woolworths. Letting of
the smaller shops was more difficult than anticipated resulting in vacancies of
6% based on GLA at year end. The majority of the vacant space has since been let
and a number of national tenants (seeking larger units) have requested space in
the future extension.
I`langa Mall
Resilient has a 25% interest in this 45 000m2 GLA development which is on
schedule to open in April 2010. The mall will be anchored by Edgars, Game, Pick
`n Pay and Woolworths and includes all major clothing retailers. Tenant demand
for this centre has been strong and the centre is 95% let with a projected
initial yield of 8,5%.
Mafikeng Mall
Resilient has a 66% interest in this 22 778m2 GLA mall which opened in April
2009. Tenants include Spar, Game, Edgars and the Truworths, Foschini and Pepkor
groups. The mall is already the dominant retail centre in Mafikeng, however,
additional land has been acquired adjacent to the mall with the intention of
increasing the GLA to 30 000m2 once all regulatory approvals have been obtained.
Mall of the North
Construction of this 75 000m2 GLA mall commenced in March 2009 with completion
scheduled for April 2011. Resilient has a 57% interest with Flanagan & Gerard
and the Moolman Group as partners. The mall will be anchored by Checkers,
Edgars, Game, Pick `n Pay and Woolworths and will include all national clothing
retailers. This is the largest retail development in the Limpopo Province, is
currently 92% let and is expected to achieve a yield of 9,5%.
2 EXTENSIONS TO EXISTING PROPERTIES
The 5 000m2 GLA extension to The Crossing, Mokopane to accommodate Game,
Foschini and Maxi`s and the 1 000m2 GLA extension to Murchison Mall to
accommodate Foschini and Pep were completed on schedule and within budget.
A 2 400m2 GLA extension to Nelspruit Plaza to accommodate Markham, Totalsport,
DFX and Ackermans has commenced and is expected to be completed in May 2010 at a
yield of 10%.
The board has approved a 6 400m2 GLA extension to Highveld Mall to accommodate
Dischem, @Home, Capitec and an extension to Pick `n Pay at a forecast yield of
10%.
In response to strong tenant demand, a 6 000m2 GLA extension to Northam Plaza is
being planned. Construction is anticipated to commence in May 2010 with
completion in March 2011.

Capital, Fortress and Nepi were treated as associates (equity accounted) and
were thus not fair valued at year end.
4 GEARING
Resilient`s gearing at year end increased to 26,4% from 23,5% the previous year.
The gearing remains below the board`s target range of 35% to 40%. Although lower
gearing has benefitted the group through the "credit crisis", this may restrict
growth in distributions in the long term. Resilient is in the fortunate position
of having a solid development pipeline and drawdowns for these developments
(together with limited disposals of listed holdings) will result in gearing
increasing during the 2010 financial year.
5 PROSPECTS
Retail trading conditions are anticipated to gradually improve during 2010 which
should be positive for growth in rentals. The board remains concerned about the
substantial increase in the cost of services, particularly electricity, which
has a direct impact on tenants` cost of occupancy.
The distribution per linked unit is forecast to increase by approximately 10%
compared with the 2009 financial year. This forecast has not been audited or
reviewed by Resilient`s auditors.

1 PREPARATION AND AUDIT OPINION
The condensed audited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with IAS34, the JSE Listings Requirements and the requirements of the
South African Companies Act. The accounting policies adopted are consistent with
those of the prior year and in accordance with IFRS. Headline earnings for 2008
has been restated to include the fair value adjustments on investments and bond
shorts. The group previously disclosed profit or loss on disposal of investment
property and investments separately from the fair value adjustments on these
items. To better reflect the nature of these transactions, these amounts are now
combined into the respective fair value adjustment lines in the statement of
comprehensive income.
Deloitte & Touche has audited the financial information set out in this report.
Their unmodified audit report is available for inspection at the group`s
registered address.

*Net asset value includes total equity attributable to equity holders and linked
debentures.
**The gearing ratio is calculated by dividing the total interest-bearing
borrowings by the total assets.
2.1 To comply with financial reporting requirements the group will account for
entities that do not form part of its operations, do not operate under its
operating policies and whose businesses, risk profiles and debt levels are not
comparable with its own. Disclosure under "Property operations" excludes Eagle`s
Eye Investments (Proprietary) Limited ("BEE SPV").
2.2 On 27 June 2006 10 810 811 linked units were issued to BEE SPV and Resilient
is standing surety for the funding obligations of BEE SPV in acquiring these
units. In terms of IFRS the issue did not take place and the essence of the
transaction was that the BEE shareholders received a right/option to acquire
linked units in Resilient at a future date at a predetermined price. As a
consequence the issue of linked units has been eliminated in the preparation of
these financial statements. The right/option the BEE shareholders have acquired
has a value of R65 784 000 (Dec 2008:R28 310 000). The value of this
right/option will be considered on an ongoing basis and changes in its fair
value are accounted for through profit and loss.
The following table indicates the effect of the BEE transaction on the group
financial statements (the column "Property operations" indicates Resilient`s
results had the BEE transaction been accounted for as an issue for value):
