Basis of preparation                                                            
The unaudited interim financial statements for the six months ended 31 December 
2009 and comparative information have been prepared in terms of IAS34 (Interim  
Financial Reporting); the Listings Requirements of JSE Limited and the relevant 
sections of the South African Companies Act, 1973 (Act 61 of 1973) as amended.  
IAS1, (Presentation of Financial Statements) has introduced certain changes to  
the format and titles of the financial statements.                              
The accounting policies applied which are based on reasonable judgements and    
estimates are in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards    
(IFRS) and are consistent with those applied in the most recent audited         
financial statements. These interim results have not been audited or reviewed by
the group`s auditors                                                            
Financial results                                                               
The directors are pleased to report that the property revenue for the six months
ended 31 December 2009 increased by 17.4% to R16.2 million compared to R13.8    
million for the six months ended 31 December 2008 ("the comparable period"). The
group`s rental, exclusive of straight line rental accruals, has increased by    
7.5% over the comparable period.                                                
Property expenses as well as administration expenses increased by 20.3% and     
19.6% respectively. The increase in property expenses resulted largely from the 
introduction of the International Financial Reporting Standard, IFRS3, where    
transaction expenses incurred on property acquisitions and previously           
capitalised as part of the acquisition, now have to be expensed through the     
statement of comprehensive income. This increased property expenses by R877 000.
Maintenance and refurbishment costs continue to be closely monitored and were   
well controlled.                                                                
The board of directors has as a result of the difficult economic conditions     
experienced during the period under review decided not to declare an interim    
dividend for the six months ended 31 December 2009 (December 2008 R0.10 cents   
per ordinary share). It is their belief that these funds can be utilised to add 
to the group`s property portfolio thus giving long term sustainability and      
increased profit in the future.                                                 
Property portfolio                                                              
At 31 December 2009 the portfolio comprised 17 properties with a gross lettable 
area of 91 676m2.                                                               
The sectoral spread by gross rentals comprised 85% industrial, 8% retail and 7% 
commercial. Vacancies continued to be extremely favourable with 1.1% of gross   
lettable area vacant which is in line with the comparable period. The company   
continues to transact primarily with `A` grade tenants.                         
The lease expiry profile reflects that in terms of gross lettable area, 1.5% of 
the portfolio expires during the next 12 months and 82% from 2012 onwards. This 
provides a stable future income stream for the group.                           
Segmental analysis                                                              
The table below summarises by segment the position for the six months ended 31  
December 2009.                                                                  
Segment assets include all operating assets used by a segment and consist of    
investment properties, receivables and cash. Assets not directly attributable to
a particular segment are allocated to the corporate segment. Segment liabilities
include all operating liabilities of a segment and consist principally of       
outstanding accounts.

Acquisitions, expansions and refurbishments                                     
During the period under review Putprop acquired an industrial property with a   
national tenant in the Pretoria metropolitan area with a gross lettable area of 
3 640m2. The Eagle Canyon expansion capital project has been completed within   
budget and timeously.                                                           
Valuation of property portfolio                                                 
It is the groups` policy to value the entire investment property portfolio on an
annual basis by an independent external valuer. The next valuation will be as at
30 June 2010. In addition the property portfolio is valued by the directors on a
six monthly basis. The directors have valued the group`s investment portfolio at
31 December 2009 at R204 million, an increase of R5 million or 2.7% on the      
external valuation at 30 June 2009. The effects of any acquisitions during the  
reporting period have been ignored in this revaluation.                         
Borrowings and capital commitments                                              
The company has no significant borrowings as at 31 December 2009 nor has it any 
capital commitments at that date.                                               
Directorate                                                                     
There have been no changes in the composition of the board of directors during  
the current period.                                                             
Subsequent events                                                               
There have been no significant subsequent events between the period 31 December 
2009 and the release of this report, 15 March 2010.                             
Prospects                                                                       
Trading conditions during the next reporting period are expected to continue to 
be challenging with costs being an area expected to come under pressure.        
Maintenance will increase substantially for the six months to June 2010.        
There are some indications that the economic activity is again starting to      
increase as is evidenced in the increase in output of the manufacturing sector  
which will flow into the consumer market and ultimately the property market both
residential and commercial. However growth options at best remain limited in the
near term.                                                                      
The board is of the opinion that a reasonable growth in earnings will be        
achieved and expects to resume dividend payments in its June 2010 results.
