Unaudited Interim Group Results for the half-year ended 31 December 2011        
REVENUE UP 4.9%                                                                 
OPERATING PROFIT DOWN 16.0%                                                     
HEADLINE EARNINGS PER SHARE DOWN 24.6%                                          
Commentary                                                                      
Group results                                                                   
The withdrawal of Duty Credit Certificate benefits which were utilised by the   
group in the previous period had a materially negative impact on profit during  
the half-year under review.                                                     
Furthermore the percentage increase in operating costs exceeded the 4.9%        
increase in turnover.                                                           
The above factors have had a negative effect on net margin. The operating       
profit from continuing operations accordingly reduced by 16% on the             
comparative period.                                                             
Headline earnings for the half-year amounted to 80.5 cents per share from       
continuing operations (97.7 cents in 2010).                                     
Retail                                                                          
The Queenspark retail segment grew sales by 4.9% during a period in which       
trading was disrupted by the refurbishment of a number of stores and also       
building alterations in some major shopping malls. In addition trading          
conditions remained challenging. Retail sales were further impacted by the      
closure of three non-performing stores during the past 12 months.               
Property segment                                                                
The strategy of the group is to redevelop certain of the group`s properties     
where viable.                                                                   
Prospects                                                                       
We anticipate that there will be further deterioration in margins and           
profitability in the second half of the financial year due to escalating        
expenses and difficult trading conditions.
