COMMENTS
RESULTS
MICC Property Income Fund (`MICC`) is pleased to report its second interim
results and to declare a distribution for the six months ending 31 March 2005 of
41.5 cents per linked unit. (Distribution for the six months ended 31 March
2004 of 37 cents per linked unit.)
MICC has continued its strong operational performance and the growth in the
distribution to linked unitholders since its listing.
The information presented for the six months ended 31 March 2005 has been
prepared in accordance with the company`s accounting policies and International
Financial Reporting Standards (`IFRS`). The information presented has not been
audited or reviewed by the company`s auditors.
CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES
In aligning the company`s accounting policies with that of its holding company,
Vukile Property Fund Limited (`Vukile`), the company has changed its accounting
policies for the treatment of the following items:
Letting commissions paid:
Letting commission paid is amortised over the period of the underlying lease
agreement. Previously, letting commission paid was expensed in the period
during which it was incurred.
Deferred taxation on the revaluation of investment properties:
Deferred taxation on the revaluation of investment properties is provided at the
capital gaines tax rate which would apply if the revaluation was to be realised
through the disposal of the properties. Previously, the tax rate applicable to
the company`s taxable income was used.
The changes in accounting policies have been applied retrospectively and, where
applicable, the comparative figures have been reclassified and restated
accordingly.
OPERATIONAL REVIEW
As announced by Vukile previously, it has obtained 74.35% of the issued capital
of MICC through its offer to MICC linked unitholders. To realise synergies and
to reduce costs, MICC has entered into a fixed term management agreement with
Vukile with effect from 1 April 2005.
In terms of the management agreement, Vukile are bound by a strict approval
framework with the strategic executive responsibility still vested in the board
of directors of MICC. The management fee is determined on a cost recovery
basis.
MICC did not acquire or dispose of any properties during the period under
review.
MICC has consolidated the property management of its investment properties and
the number of property managers has been reduced from nine to three, with the
most significant appointment being that of Gensec Property Services
(Proprietary) Limited to manage the Namibian properties.
The vacancy levels in the portfolio, expressed as a percentage of Gross Lettable
Area, have deteriorated marginally from 6.10% as at 30 September 2004 to 6.90%
as at 31 March 2005.
OUTLOOK
The Board is confident that the portfolio will continue to perform favourably
for the foreseeable future.
Directorate
Gerhard van Zyl and Mike Potts were appointed as directors of MICC on 31 January
2005. Mr van Zyl is the Chief Executive Officer and Mr Potts the Financial
Director of Vukile. Mr Potts has been appointed to the audit committee of MICC.
There were no resignations from the board of directors during the period under
review.
