NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared and presented
in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards IAS34, the
Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited and the requirements of the Companies
Act 61 of 1973, as amended. The accounting policies adopted are consistent with
those applied at 28 February 2010 except for the recognition of deferred tax.
Premium has early-adopted the amendment to IAS12 relating to income tax and
which requires entities to apply the Capital Gains Tax ("CGT") rate at which
deferred tax is recognised specifically on the fair value movements on
Investment property. Previously a blended tax rate was used with the land
component attracting the CGT rate of 14% and buildings attracting the income tax
rate of 28%. The effect of this change in the accounting policy is as follows:
2010 2009
R`000 R`000
Decrease in deferred tax liabilities 170 342 144 730
Increase in reserves (170 342) (144 730)
Net asset value - previously reported 1 313 1 176
Net asset value - restated 1 461 1 300
Related party: City Property Administration (Proprietary) Limited is responsible
for the property and asset management of the Group.
Contingent liability: Premium has issued guarantees of R1,6 million in favour of
City of Tshwane Metropolitan Municipality for the provision of services to its
subsidiaries. Premium has provided a suretyship to Nedbank Property Finance,
which at 28 February 2011 amounted to R224,2 million, in favour of its associate
company, IPS Investments (Proprietary) Limited ("IPS").
DIRECTORS` COMMENTARY
Review of results
Premium has delivered growth in distributions for the year ended 28 February
2011 of 5,2% compared to the prior year. The interim distribution was 58,70
cents per linked unit with a final distribution of 58,20 cents per linked unit.
This was achieved in a difficult trading environment with tenants` total cost of
occupation increasing as utility costs and assessment rates increased
significantly. Whilst our commercial leases do provide for the recovery of the
cost of utilities and rates and taxes, these increased costs impact negatively
on new rentals on expiry of leases. Our residential leases do not provide for
the recovery of rates and taxes.
Rental income and net rental income increased by 10,5% and 12,5% respectively,
compared with the comparable period. The core portfolio, representing those
properties held for twelve comparable months and with no major development
activity, reflects rental income growth of 5,3%. The residential portfolio,
which represents 29,0% of the portfolio by rental income, achieved growth of
6,0%, underpinned by low vacancies and strong demand for affordable and secure
accommodation. Property expenses decreased to 40,0% (2010: 41,1%), with bad
debts decreasing during the period.
Arrears and doubtful debt provisions remain at acceptable levels and no
significant deterioration is anticipated. A saving in finance costs was achieved
due to the decreases in the prime lending rate. This was partially offset by the
increased costs of funding as a result of interest rate swaps entered into at a
premium to the weighted average cost of floating interest rates, in order to fix
interest rates in a low interest rate environment.
Property and investment portfolio
Management continued to focus on the redevelopment and upgrade of properties to
improve the quality of its properties to attract new tenants at higher rentals.
Phase II of the Hatfield mixed-use development was completed during the period.
This includes a four level parking facility, 6 262 m2 of "A" grade offices and 2
224 m2 of retail space. The total cost of the project should not exceed R256,1
million.
The 7 006 m2 City Centre office block was redeveloped at a cost of R29,0
million.
The distribution growth was negatively impacted as the City Centre and The
Fields office blocks are vacant. The retail component of The Fields Phase II is
also largely vacant. Management is optimistic that progress will be made in the
near future in the letting of these properties.
The conversion of Lara`s Place into residential units, situated in the
Johannesburg CBD was completed in July 2010 at a yield of 10,0%. This property
is now fully let.
As anticipated the performance of IPS was negatively impacted by the phased take
up of its mixed use developments. An increase in income from IPS is forecast for
the next financial year. Details of some of these IPS developments are:

Tali`s Place 40 July Johannesburg
(mixed use) 2010 CBD R106,0 55,9
Beatrix Place 40 July Arcadia, Not yet
(residential) 2011 Pretoria R45,9 completed
Details of the Premium Portfolio`s vacancies as at 28 February 2011 are as
follows:
28 February 28 February
2011 2010
Offices (%) 15,2 13,5
Retail (%) 3,9 3,6
Commercial (%) 1,5 1,4
Industrial (%) 2,6 2,9
Residential (%) 0,4 0,3
TOTAL (%) 23,6 21,7
Most of the properties remained fully let, however a number of properties under
development or those which were recently upgraded had high vacancies. In recent
years certain properties were acquired by Premium with large vacancies and for
little or no consideration for the vacant space and that offered redevelopment
activity. As the opportunities arise the potential of these vacancies is being
realised.
During the year five properties were acquired and transferred for a total
purchase price of R188,1 million. These include the Shoprite building in the
Pretoria CBD, for a total consideration of R132,8 million and Lister building
situated in the Johannesburg CBD for a total purchase consideration of R44,5
million. The initial yields on these purchases are 7,1% and 10,5% respectively.
Gilboa in Arcadia Pretoria and Landjack in Kirkney were disposed of and
transferred during the period at a profit of R13,9 million and R0,7 million
respectively.
Rights issue
Premium successfully concluded a rights issue on 28 February 2011 for an amount
of R400 million. 26 666 667 new linked units were issued at R15,00 each. An
amount of R15,73 million of the rights issue proceeds was credited to debenture
interest in respect of the period 1 September 2010 to 28 February 2011 in order
to ensure that the pre-rights issue linked unitholders were not diluted.
Debt
Premium`s gearing at 28 February 2011 was 37,6% of the total value of the
portfolio against 33,1% at 28 February 2010. The proceeds of the rights issue
were received after year end and are reflected in the balance sheet under
current assets. Subsequent to year end these proceeds were temporarily applied
to repay debt, reducing the gearing to a relatively low level of 27,2%. Premium
has entered into various swap interest rate agreements as set out below. As a
result the interest rates on 45,3% of debt have been fixed (after taking the
rights issue proceeds into account - 62,8%) for periods of between two years and
seven years. As at 28 February 2011, the annual weighted cost of debt was 9,0%.

Revaluation of the property portfolio
It is the Group`s policy to perform directors` valuations of all the properties
on a six monthly basis and at year end. At the year end one third of the
properties are valued by external valuers.
The increase in the directors` valuation of the portfolio by R119,4 million to
R3,58 billion represents an increase of 3,5%.
This valuation includes a revaluation of R14,8 million on leasehold property
which is stated as Investment property. It was previously classified as
Property, plant and equipment.
Prospects
The upgrading of the Group`s properties will continue to be the major driver for
the Group and this should provide investors with improved distribution growth in
the medium to longer term.
It is anticipated that the growth in the economy will remain subdued in the
short term. Notwithstanding this environment, and barring unforeseen events,
Premium anticipates that the distributable income of the current year should be
maintained in the forthcoming year.
Unitholders are advised that the abovementioned information has not been
