b. Comparative Information

Balances items as of June 30, 2009 shown in these unaudited financial statements for comparative purposes arise from audited annual financial statements for the year then ended.

Balances for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 of income and cash flows statements are shown for comparative purposes with the same period of the previous fiscal year.

The financial statements as of June 30, 2009 and September 30, 2008 originally issued have been subject to certain reclassifications required in order to present these figures comparatively with those stated as of September 30, 2009.

NOTE 2: CONSIDERATION OF THE EFFECTS OF INFLATION

The unaudited financial statements have been prepared in constant monetary units, reflecting the overall effects of inflation through August 31, 1995. From that date and until December 31, 2001 the government discontinued the restatement of the financial statements due to a period of monetary stability. From January 1st, 2002 up to February 28, 2003 the effects of inflation were recognized due to the existence of an inflationary period. As from that date again, the restatement of the financial statements was discontinued.

NOTE 2: (Continued)

 

This criterion is not in line with current professional accounting standards, which establish that the financial statements should be restated through September 30, 2003. However, due to the low level of inflation rates during the period from March to September 2003, this deviation has not had a material effect on the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.

The unaudited financial statements of the subsidiaries mentioned in Note 1, have been prepared on a consistent basis with those applied by IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones Sociedad Anónima. The Note 1 to the Unaudited Basic Financial Statements details the most significant accounting policies applied by the Company. Below are the most relevant accounting policies adopted by the subsidiaries, which are not included in that note.

a. Revenue recognition

In addition to the description in the Unaudited Basic Financial Statements:

 

   

Revenues from admission rights, leases and services

Leases with tenants are accounted for as operating leases. Tenants are generally charged a rent, which consists of the higher of (i) a monthly base rent (the “Base Rent”) and (ii) a specified percentage of the tenant’s monthly revenues (the “Percentage Rent”) (which generally ranges between 4% and 10% of tenant’s gross revenues).

Furthermore, pursuant to the rent escalation clause in most leases, the tenant’s Base Rent generally increases between 7% and 12% each year during the term of the lease. Minimum rental income is recognized on the accrued criteria.

Certain lease agreements contain provisions, which provide for rents based on a percentage of revenues or based on a percentage of revenues volume above a specified threshold. APSA determines the compliance with specific targets and calculates the additional rent on a monthly basis as provided for in the contracts.

NOTE 3: (Continued)

 

a.(Continued)

 

Thus, these contingent rents are not recognized until the required thresholds are exceeded.

Generally, APSA’s lease agreements vary from 36 to 120 months. Law No. 24,808 provides that tenants may rescind commercial lease agreements after the initial six-months, upon not less than 60 days’ written notice, subject to penalties which vary from one to one and a half months rent if the tenant rescinds during the first year of its lease, and one month of rent if the tenant rescinds after the first year of its lease.

Additionally, APSA charges its tenants a monthly administration fees related to the administration and maintenance of the common area and the administration of contributions made by tenants to finance promotional efforts for the overall shopping centers operations. The administration fee is prorated among the tenants according to their leases, which varies from shopping center to shopping center. Administration fees are recognized monthly when earned.

In addition to rent, tenants are generally charged “admission rights”, a non-refundable admission fee that tenants may be required to pay upon entering into a lease or upon lease renewal. Admission right is normally paid in one lump sum or in a small number of monthly installments. Admission rights are recognized using the straight-line method over the life of the respective lease agreements.

 

   

Lease agent operations

Fibesa S.A., company in which Alto Palermo S.A. has an interest of 100%, act as the leasing agent for APSA bringing together the Company and potential lessees for the retail space available in certain of the APSA’s shopping centers. Fibesa S.A.’s revenues are derived primarily from collected commissions calculated as a percentage of the final rental income value and admission rights. Revenues are recognized at the time that the transaction is successfully concluded.

 

   

Credit card operations “Consumer Financing”

Revenues derived from credit card transactions consist in commissions and financing income, charges to clients for life and disability insurance and for statements of account, among other. Commissions are recognized at the time the

merchants’ transactions are processed, while the rest financial income is recognized when accrued. Income generated from granting consumer loans mainly includes financial interests, which are recognized by the accrued method during the period irrespective of whether collection has or has not been made.

 

   

Hotel operations

The Company recognizes revenues from its rooms, catering and restaurant facilities as accrued on the close of each business day.

Net operating results from each business unit are disclosed in Note 4.

b.1. Current Investments

Current investments include retained interests in securitized receivables pursuant to the securitization programs of Tarshop with a realization term not exceeding twelve months, which have been accounted for under the equity method, net of the corresponding allowances for impairment, if applicable.

Mutual funds, government and mortgage bonds are carried at their market value at the end of the period/year and time deposits are carried at face value plus accrued interest at the end of the year.

b.2 Equity investees and other non-current investments

Include retained interests in securitized receivables, which have been accounted for under the equity method, net of the corresponding allowances for impairment, if applicable.

In addition, the ownership interests held in entities over which the Company does not exercise control, common control or significant influence have been measured for accounting purposes at cost plus any declared dividends.

As regards the 2.68% equity interest acquired in Banco Hipotecario (through Tyrus, a controlled company) in the course of this quarter, and as explained in Note 22 A.5, the process to analyze the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired is underway, in compliance with the provisions under Technical Resolution No. 21, Paragraph 1.3.1.

NOTE 3: (Continued)

 

c. Intangible assets, net

Intangible assets are carried at cost restated as mentioned in Note 2, less accumulated amortization and corresponding allowances for impairment in value. Included in the Intangible Assets caption are the following:

 

   

Trademarks

Trademarks include the expenses and fees related to their registration.

 

   

Pre-operating and organization expenses

Those expenses were amortized by the straight-line method in 3 years, beginning as from the date of opening of the shopping center.

The value of the intangible assets does not exceed their estimated recoverable value at period/year end, respectively.

d. Negative goodwill, net

i) Negative goodwill: Negative goodwill represents the excess of the fair value of net assets of the subsidiaries at the percentage of participation acquired over the acquisition cost. If the value of the identified tangible and intangible assets exceeds the purchase price paid (i) the acquired intangible assets are not recognized because they would entail an increase in the negative goodwill arising from these acquisitions at the time of the purchase (ii) the excess will be treated as negative goodwill as follows: (a) the portion related to the expectations of future losses will be recognized in the income statements for the same periods in which such losses are incurred (b) the amount not in excess of the equity interest over the non-monetary assets of the issuer will be recognized as negative goodwill (c) the amount that exceeds the non-monetary assets will be recognized in the statement of income at the time of the purchase.

Goodwill has been restated following the guidelines mentioned in Note 2 and amortization has been calculated by the straight-line method based on an estimated useful life considering the weighted-average of the remaining useful life of identifiable assets acquired subject to depreciation.

NOTE 3: (Continued)

 

d.(continued)

 

ii) Goodwill: Represents the excess of the acquisition cost over the net assets’ fair value of the business acquired to the share percentage of participation acquired.

Amortizations were calculated through the straight line method on the basis of an estimated useful life considering the weight average of the remaining useful life of the assets acquired.

The residual value of goodwill arising from acquisition of net assets and shares in companies has been shown in the “Negative goodwill, net” caption. Amortizations were classified in the “Amortization of the Negative Goodwill” caption of the statement of income. Goodwill related to the acquisition of interest in subsidiaries is included in non-current investments.

Values thus obtained do not exceed the respective estimated recoverable values at period/year end.

e. Liabilities in kind related to barter transactions

Liabilities in kind corresponding to obligations to deliver units to be built are valued considering the cost of the assets received. The Company estimates that this value exceed the cost of construction of the units to be delivered plus additional costs to transfer the assets to the creditor. Liabilities in kind have been shown in the “Trade account payables”.

NOTE 4: NET OPERATING INCOME BY BUSINESS UNIT

The Company has determined that its reportable segments are those that are based on the Company’s method of internal reporting. Accordingly, the Company has six reportable segments. These segments are Sale and development of properties, Office and others, Shopping centers, Hotel Operations, Consumer financing segment, and financial operations and others. As mentioned in Note 1, the unaudited Consolidated Statements of income were prepared following the guidelines of Technical Resolution No. 21 of the FACPCE.

A general description of each segment follows:

NOTE 20: LAWSUITS AND CLAIMS IN COURSE

 

   

Provision for unexpired claims against Llao Llao Holding S.A.

The Company Llao Llao Holding S.A. (“LLH”) (in liquidation process following the merger with and into IRSA), predecessor of Llao Llao Resorts S.A. (“LLR”) as operator of the Llao Llao Hotel, was sued in 1997 by the National Parks Administration seeking collection of the unpaid balance of the additional sale price, in Argentine External Debt bond (“EDB”) amounting to US$ 2.9 million. A ruling of the court of original jurisdiction sustained the claim. That ruling was appealed, and the Court of Appeals confirmed the judgment of the court of original jurisdiction, demanding payment from the company of US$ 3.8 million, plus interest accrued through payment, penalties and attorney’s fees. In March 2004, LLH paid Ps. 9,156 in cash and EDB.

The plaintiff requested the court of original jurisdiction to initiate an incidental procedure for execution of sentence by performing a settlement through the Ministry of Economy, the procedure having being questioned by the Company. In view of the fact that the information provided was not sufficient to evaluate the amount settled by the Ministry of Economy, it was requested that the execution be suspended until there is a sentence on the complaint recourse filed with the National Supreme Court for the denial of the extraordinary recourse soliciting that the debt be converted to pesos (“pesification”).

On July 2008 the Court of Appeal notified LLR that by means of a resolution dated June 18, 2008 it had confirmed the settlement approved by the court of original jurisdiction.

On March 17, 2009, the National Supreme Court admitted the appeal against and decided to suspend the enforcement of the judgment in so far as the extraordinary appeal lodged by LLR is not resolved.

In accordance with the information provided by the attorneys in respect of this lawsuit, the amount to be recorded by virtue of the Court sentence amounts to Ps.10,175 as of September 30, 2009, such amount being recorded in Other current liabilities - Payables to National Parks Administration.

NOTE 21: RESTRICTED ASSETS

A. IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones Sociedad Anónima

 

  i) Puerto Retiro S.A.

On April 18, 2000, Puerto Retiro S.A (indirect subsidiary of IRSA) was notified of a filing made by the National Government, through the Ministry of Defense, to extend the petition in bankruptcy of Inversora Dársena Norte S.A. (Indarsa) to Puerto Retiro S.A. Concurrently with the complaint, at the request of plaintiff, the bankruptcy court granted an order restraining the ability of Puerto Retiro S.A. to sell or dispose in any manner the acquired real estate property from Tandanor S.A. in June 1993.

Indarsa had acquired 90% of the capital stock of Tandanor S.A. to a formerly estate owned company privatized in 1991, engaged in the shipyard industry.

Indarsa did not comply with the payment of the outstanding price for the acquisition of the stock of Tandanor, and therefore the Ministry of Defense requested the bankruptcy of Indarsa, pursuing to extend the bankruptcy to Puerto Retiro S.A.

The evidence steps of the legal procedures have been completed. Puerto Retiro S.A. appealed the precautionary measure, being the same confirmed by the Court on December 14, 2000. The parties have submitted their claims in due time. The file was passed for the judge to issue a pronouncement, this being a decree adjourning the summoning of decisions to pronouncement in the understanding that there exists pre-judgment in respect of the penal cause filed against ex-officers of the Ministry of Defense and ex-directors of the Company. Consequently, the matter will not be solved until there is final judgment in penal jurisdiction.

The Management and legal advisors of Puerto Retiro S.A. estimate that there are legal and technical issues sufficient to consider that the request for bankruptcy will be denied by the court. However, taking the circumstances into account and the progress of the legal action, this position cannot be considered final.

In July 2008, IRSA (through its subsidiaries) acquired a 30% interest in “Metropolitan 885 Third Ave. LLC” (or “Metropolitan”) whose equity is composed of an office building known as “Lipstick Building” and debt related to that asset. The transaction included the acquisition of (i) a put right excercible until July 2011 to sell a 50% of the interest acquired at the same value paid plus interest at 4.5% per annum and (ii) a right of first offering to acquire a 60% portion of the 5% interest currently held by another shareholder. The price paid in this transaction was US$ 22.6 million.

At June 30, 2009, Metropolitan had incurred losses in excess of the book value at which IRSA carried this investment arising mainly from the allowance for impairment booked in connection with the Lipstick Building. IRSA’s share in these losses exceeds value of the investment booked by IRSA. Therefore, the investment was valued at zero and a liability was recognized and recorded under “Other liabilities” for US$ 1.5 million (equivalent to the maximum amount that IRSA has agreed to contribute in the event of being required to fund Metropolitan’s operations). The put right was revalued accordingly and adjusted to its value at year-end, estimated at US$ 11.9 and disclosed under Other receivables.

NOTE 24: SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

A. IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones Sociedad Anónima

1. Investment in Banco Hipotecario

Compensation of the National Government to financial entities as a result of the asymmetric “pesification”

The National Government, through Decree 905, provided for the issuance of “National Government Compensating Bonds”, to compensate financial entities for the adverse equity effects generated due to the conversion into pesos, under various exchange ratios, of the credits and obligations denominated in foreign currency as established by Law No. 25,561, Decree 214 and addenda, also provided for covering the negative difference in the net position of foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities resulting from its translation into pesos as established by the above-mentioned regulations, and entitled the Argentine Republic Central Bank to determine the pertinent rules.

Banco Hipotecario S.A. submitted the presentation as regards sections 28 and 29 of Decree 905 Compensation to Financial Entities, as follows:

 

   

National Government Compensation Bond - US$ 2,012 (section 29, points b, c and d): compensating bond – difference between “pesified” assets and liabilities at Ps. 1.00 for the rate of exchange difference of Ps. 0.40, translated at Ps. 1.40 per US$ dollar: US$ 360,811.

 

   

National Government Compensation Bond coverage - US$ 2,012 (section 29 point e). Coverage bond – difference between assets and liabilities in US dollars net of the compensating bond: US$ 832,827.

subscribing an original par value of US$ 59,294 in exchange for a payment in cash of Ps. 211,947 as subscription price. In addition, US$ 40,207 were received as matured coupons.

Exposure to the non-financial public sector

Banco Hipotecario S.A. keeps recorded in its financial statements assets with the Non-Financial Public Sector amounting to Ps. 2,502,993 as of September 30, 2009.

As from January 1 st, 2006, the dispositions of point 12 of Communication “A” 3911 (Communication “A” 4455) became effective, as regards that the assistance to the Public Sector (average measured) cannot exceed 40% of total Assets of the last day of the previous month. Through Communication “A” 4546 of July 9, 2006, it was established that as from July 1, 2007, such limit was modified to 35%. The exposure of Banco Hipotecario S.A. to the Public Sector originated in compensations granted by the National Government as a result of year 2002 crisis, principally related to the asymmetric “pesification” of assets and liabilities.

To such extent and considering that assets to the Public Sector exceeded the mentioned limit. On January 19, 2006, Banco Hipotecario S.A. reported to the Argentine Central Bank that it will gradually decrease the proportion of assets subject to the exposure to the Public Sector, in line with the amortization and cancellation made by the Government of the bonds received for asymmetric compensation in the currency of issuance. To date, no objections to this issue have been received.

As of September 30, 2009 and 2008 the assistance to the Public Sector arises 21.4% and 25.7%, from total Assets, respectively.

Aspects pending of resolution

As mentioned in the notes to the financial statements of Banco Hipotecario S.A (“Banco Hipotecario”) there are certain aspects that had been objected to by the Financial Institutions Oversight Department of the Central Bank of Argentina (BCRA) and for which Banco Hipotecario is preparing its corresponding response. These matters are related mainly to:

 

  (a) The accounting treatment for certain transactions involving derivative financial instruments, which, according to the requirements of BCRA, are to be booked in accordance with the criteria laid down by the professional accounting standards, would entail a reduction in Shareholders’ equity as of September 30, 2009;

NOTE 24: (Continued)

 

  (b) Regulatory treatment and prudential relations resulting from the negotiation and consummation of certain transactions involving derivative financial instruments. It is to be noted that, in response to certain objections raised by the Argentine Central Bank, the Entity decided to compute the counterparty and fractioning risk associated to its exposure to the Non-financial Public Sector as well as the ensuing impact on the minimum capital requirements for thousand Ps. 2,047,289 for a five-month period and maturing on November 30, 2009. It followed from this situation that the amounts that the Entity was compelled to maintain as minimum capital requirements as of September 30, 2009 had been understated by thousand Ps. 562,052.

For purposes of recording its investment in Banco Hipotecario, the Company applies this entity’s Shareholders’ equity determined according to the professional accounting standards. Therefore, the aspects described in a) above do not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements because they have been already contemplated in the values considered by the Company.

At the date of issuance of its financial statements as of September 30, 2009, Banco Hipotecario S.A. was in the process of drafting a response to the Argentine Central Bank concerning the re-assertion of the valuation criteria applied to the derivative financial instruments already mentioned.

2. Compensation plan for executive management

The Company and its subsidiary APSA have developed during the period ended June 30, 2007 the design of a capitalization program for the executive personnel by means of contributions that will be made by employees and by the Company.

That plan is aimed at certain employees that the Company chooses with the intention to maintain them, increasing its total compensation through an extraordinary reward provided certain circumstances are met.

Participation with and contribution to the plan are voluntary. Once the beneficiary has accepted, two types of contributions may be made. One monthly contribution, based on the salary and one extraordinary contribution based on the annual bonus. The suggested contribution is up to 2.5% of the salary and up to 15% of the bonus. On the other hand, the Company’s contribution will be 200% of monthly contributions and 300% of employees’ extraordinary contributions.

Proceeds from the contributions made by participants are transferred to an independent financial vehicle, especially organized and located in Argentina as Investment Fund approved by the National Securities Commission (CNV). Such funds are freely redeemable at the participant’s request.

Notes to the unaudited financial statements

and ended September 30, 2009 and 2008

Free translation from the original prepared in Spanish for publication in Argentina

NOTE 1: ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Below are the most relevant accounting standards used by the Company to prepare these unaudited financial statements:

1.1. Preparation and presentation of financial statements

These unaudited financial statements are stated in Argentine pesos and were prepared in accordance with disclosure and valuation criteria contained in the Technical Resolutions issued by the Federación Argentina de Consejos Profesionales de Ciencias Económicas, approved with certain amendments by the Consejo Profesional de Ciencias Económicas de la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires, in accordance with the resolutions issued by the National Securities Commission.

The Company’s results for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 have not been audited. The Company’s management estimates that they include all the adjustments necessary to present fairly the results for each period.

The Company’s quarterly results do not necessarily reflect the proportion of the Company’s full-year results.

1.2. Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires the Company’s Management, at a specific date, to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the period. The Company’s Management makes estimations to calculate, for example, the allowance for doubtful accounts, depreciation and amortization, the impairment of long-lived assets, income taxes, contingencies allowances, fair value of assets acquired in a business combination, the fulfillment of certain conditions for valuation of inventories to its net realizable value and fair value of transaction of exchanges (barters). Future actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions made at the date of these financial statements.

1.3. Recognition of the effects of inflation

The financial statements have been prepared in constant Argentine Pesos, reflecting the overall effects of inflation through August 31, 1995. From that date and until December 31, 2001 the Company discontinued the restatement of the financial statements due to a period of monetary stability. From January 1st, 2002 up to February 28, 2003 the effects of inflation were recognized due to the existence of an inflationary period. As from that date, the restatement of the financial statements was discontinued.

NOTE 1: (Continued)

 

1.3. (Continued)

 

This criterion is not in line with current professional accounting standards, which establish that the financial statements should have been restated through September 30, 2003. However, due to the low level of inflation rates during the period from March to September 2003, this deviation has not had a material effect on the financial statements taken as a whole.

The rate used for restatement of items in these financial statements is the domestic wholesale price index published by the National Institute of Statistics and Census.

1.4. Comparative information

Balances items as of June 30, 2009 shown in these unaudited financial statements for comparative purposes arise from audited annual financial statements for the year then ended.

Balances of the three-month period ended 30 September, 2009 of the unaudited income, shareholder’s equity and cash flow statements are shown for comparative purpose with the same period of the previous fiscal year.

The financial statements as of June 30, 2009 and as of September 30, 2008 originally issued have been subject to certain reclassifications required in order to present these figures comparatively with those stated as of September 30, 2009.

1.5. Valuation criteria

a. Cash and banks

Cash on hand has been valued at face value.

b. Foreign currency assets and liabilities

Foreign currency assets and liabilities were valued at each period/year end exchange rates.

Operations denominated in foreign currency are converted into pesos at the exchange rates in effect at the date of settlement of the operation.

1.5. (Continued)

 

c. Current investments

Current investments in debt securities and mutual funds were valued at their net realizable value.

d. Accounts receivables, net and trade accounts payable

Mortgages, lease receivables and services and trade accounts payable have been valued at the price applicable to spot operations at the time of the transaction plus interest and implicit financial components accrued at the internal rate of return determined at that moment.

e. Financial receivables and payables

Financial receivables and payables have been valued at the amount deposited and collected, respectively, net of the cost of the transaction, plus financial results accrued based on the internal rate of return estimated at that time.

f. Other receivables and prepaid expenses and liabilities

Other current receivables and other current liabilities have been valued at face value plus the financial results accrued at the closing of the corresponding year.

Certain receivables and liabilities disclosed under other non-current receivables and liabilities, were valued based on the best estimate of the amount receivable and payable, respectively, discounted at an interest rate that reflect the value-time of money and the estimate specific transaction risks at the time of incorporation to assets and liabilities, respectively.

As established by the regulations of the accounting professional standards, deferred tax assets and liabilities and minimum presumed income tax (MPIT) have not been discounted.

g. Balances corresponding to financial transactions and sundry receivables and payables with related parties

Receivables and payables with related parties generated by financial transactions and other sundry transactions were valued in accordance with the terms agreed by the parties.

1.5. (Continued)

 

h. Inventories

A property is classified as inventories upon determination by the Board of Directors that the property is to be marketed for sale in the normal course of business over the next several years.

Properties classified as inventories have been valued at acquisition or construction cost restated as mentioned in Note 1.3., or estimated market value, whichever is lower. Costs include land and land improvements, direct construction costs, construction overhead costs, financial costs and real estate taxes.

Inventories on which advance payments that establish price have been received, and the operation’s contract terms and conditions assure that the sale will be effectively accomplished and that the income will be realized, are valued at its fair market value. Profits arising from such valuation are shown in the “Gain from recognition of inventories at net realizable value” caption of the Statements of Income.

Properties held for sale are classified as current or non-current based on the estimated date of sale and the time at which the related receivable is expected to be collected by the Company.

The amount recorded in inventories, net of allowances set up, does not exceed their estimated recoverable value at the end of the period/year.

Credits in kind:

The Company has credits in kinds related to rights to receive certain property units to be built. The units have been valued according to the accounting measuring standards corresponding to inventories receivables (the price established in the deed or net realizable value, as applicable) and there have been disclosed under “Inventories”.

i. Non-current investments

 

   

Investments in debt securities:

Investments in debt securities were valued based on the best estimate of the discounted amount receivable, applying the corresponding internal rate of return estimated at the time of incorporation to assets, as the Company will hold them to maturity.

Investments in subsidiaries and equity investments:

Long term investments in subsidiaries and equity investments detailed in Exhibit C, have been valued by using the equity method of accounting based on the financial statements at September 30, 2009 issued by them. The accounting standards used by the subsidiaries to prepare their financial statements are the same as those used by the Company. The accounting standards used by the related companies to prepare their financial statements are those currently in effect.

This item includes the lower or higher value paid for the purchase of shares in subsidiaries and affiliated companies assignable to the assets acquired, and goodwill related to the subsidiaries and affiliated companies acquired.

The Company has allowances for impairment of certain rental properties as disclosed in Exhibit A. Increases and decreases of such allowances are disclosed in Exhibit E. The amount charged to the Statement of Income to reflect the allowance for impairment and its reversal has been disclosed in the “Results from transactions and holdings of real estate assets” line of the Statement of Income.

Significant renewals and improvements, which improve or extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized and depreciated over its estimated remaining useful life.

k. Intangible assets, net

Intangible assets correspond to expenses that the Company avoids incurring as a result of acquiring effective rent contracts and the estimated costs of entering into rent contracts acquired (see Note 1.5.I.). These are shown net of their accumulated amortization.

Intangible assets are amortized during the average initial remaining useful life of the rent contracts acquired.

The value of these assets does not exceed its estimated recoverable value as of period/year-end.

l. Business combinations

Significant entities or net asset acquired by the Company were recorded in line with the “purchased method” set forth in Technical Resolution No. 18. All assets and liabilities acquired to third independent parties were adjusted to show their fair value. The Company identified the assets and liabilities acquired, that included intangible assets such as: lease agreements acquired for prices and terms that are either higher or lower than in the market; costs of executing and delivering the lease agreements in force (costs that the Company avoids incurring as a result of acquiring effective lease agreements); the value of acquired brands, the value of any deposits associated to the investment and the intangible value inherent to customer relations.

The process of identification and the determination of the purchase price paid is a matter that requires complex judgments and significant estimates.

The Company uses the information contained in valuations estimated by independent appraisers as primary base for assigning the price paid for the land, the building and shopping centers. The amounts assigned to all the other assets and liabilities are based on independent valuations or on the Company’s own analysis on comparable assets and liabilities. The current value of tangible assets acquired considers the property value as if it was empty.

l. (Continued)

 

In accordance with the terms of Technical Resolution N° 21, if the value of identified tangible and intangible assets and liabilities exceeds the price paid, the intangible assets acquired are not recognized as they would cause an increase of the negative goodwill generated by these acquisitions at the time of the purchase. Furthermore, as regards the negative goodwill generated, the portion concerning the investees’ expectations of future expenses or losses will be recognized in the statements of income for the same periods in which such expenses or losses are accrued and expensed. The portion that is not concerned with the investees’ expectations of future expenses or losses will be treated as follows: (i) the amount that does not exceed the investor’s interest over the current values of the investees’ identifiable non-monetary assets will be consistently recognized in the statement of income throughout a period equivalent to a weighted average of the remaining useful lives of the investees’ identifiable assets subject to depreciation; (ii) the amount that exceeds the current values of the investees’ identifiable non-monetary assets will be recognized in the statement of income at the time of the acquisition.

If the price paid is larger than the value of the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities as identified, the excess is considered to be goodwill.

m. Debt issuance costs

Expenses incurred in connection with the issuance of debt are amortized over the life of the related issuances. In the case of redemption or conversion of these notes, the related expenses are amortized using the accelerated depreciation method.

Amortization has been recorded under “Financial results, net” in the unaudited statements of income as a greater financing expense.

n. Customer advances

Customer advances represent payments received in advance in connection with the sale and rent of properties and has been valued according to the amount of money received.

o. Income tax

The Company has recognized the charge for income tax by the deferred tax liability method, recognizing timing differences between measurements of accounting and tax assets and liabilities (see Note 15).

To determine deferred assets and liabilities, the tax rate expected to be in effect at the time of reversal or use has been applied to timing differences identified and tax loss carry forwards, considering the legal regulations approved at the date of issuance of these financial statements.

p. MPIT

The Company calculates MPIT by applying the current 1% rate on computable assets at the end of the year. This tax complements income tax. The Company’s tax obligation in each period will coincide with the higher of the two taxes. However, if MPIT exceeds income tax in a given period, that amount in excess will be computable as payment on account of income tax arising in any of the following ten years.

q. Allowances and Provisions

Allowance for doubtful accounts: the allowance for losses is recognized when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the terms of the agreements. The allowance is determined on a one-by-one basis considering the present value of expected future cash flows. While Management uses the information available to make assessments, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if future economic conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the assessments. Management has considered all events and/or transactions that are subject to reasonable and normal methods of estimations, and the financial statements reflect that consideration.

For impairment of assets: the Company regularly asses its non-current assets for recoverability at the end of every year.

q. (Continued)

 

The Company has estimated the recoverable value of rental properties based on their economic use value, which is determined based on estimated future cash flows discounted. For the rest of the assets (inventories and undeveloped parcels of land) the Company makes a comparison with market values based on values of comparable properties. If the recoverable value of assets, which had been impaired in prior years, increases, the Company record the corresponding reversals of impairment loss as required by accounting standards.

Increases and decreases of allowances for impairment of assets during the period ended as of September 30, 2009 and the year ended as of June 30, 2009 are detailed in Exhibit E. The amount charged to the Statement of Income to reflect the allowance for impairment and its reversal has been disclosed in the “Results from transactions and holdings of real estate assets” line of the Statement of Income.

For lawsuits: the Company has certain contingent liabilities with respect to existing or potential claims, lawsuits and other proceedings, including those involving labor issues. The Company accrues liabilities when it is probable that future costs will be incurred and such costs can be reasonably estimated. Such accruals are based on developments to date, the Company’s estimates of the outcomes of these matters and the Company’s lawyers’ experience in contesting, litigating and settling other matters.

As the scope of the liabilities becomes better defined, there may be changes in the estimates of future costs, which could have an effect on the Company’s future results of operations and financial condition or liquidity.

At the date of issuance of these unaudited financial statements, Company’s Management understands that there are no elements to foresee other potential contingencies having a negative impact on these unaudited financial statements.

r. Shareholders’ equity accounts

Amounts of shareholders’ equity accounts have been restated following the guidelines detailed in Note 1.3. until February 28, 2003. Subsequent movements are stated in the currency of the month to which they correspond.

NOTE 1: (Continued)

 

1.5. (Continued)

 

t.1. (Continued)

 

The Company uses the percentage-of-completion method of accounting with respect to sales of development properties under construction. Under this method, revenue is recognized based on the ratio of costs incurred to total estimated costs according to budgeted costs. The Company does not commence revenue and cost recognition until construction activities have begun. The percentage-of-completion method of accounting requires the Company’s Management to prepare budgeted costs in connection with sales of properties/units. All changes to estimated costs of completion are incorporated into revised estimates during the contract period.

t.2 Revenues from leases

Revenues from leases are recognized on a straight –line basis over the life of the related lease contracts.

u. Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers, for cash flow purposes, all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, consisting primarily of mutual funds, as cash equivalents.

v. Negative Goodwill, net

Negative goodwill represents the excess of the fair value of net assets of the subsidiaries at the percentage of participation acquired over the acquisition cost. If the value of the identified tangible and intangible assets exceeds the purchase price paid (i) the acquired intangible assets are not recognized because they would entail an increase in the negative goodwill arising from these acquisitions at the time of the purchase (ii) the excess will be treated as negative goodwill as follows: (a) the portion related to the expectations of future losses will be recognized in the income statements for the same periods in which such losses are incurred (b) the amount not in excess of the equity interest over the non-monetary assets of the issuer will be recognized as negative goodwill (c) the amount that exceeds the non-monetary assets will be recognized in the statement of income at the time of the purchase

(i) In May 2006 Koad S.A. (Koad) and the Company entered into a barter agreement valued at US$ 7.5 million by which the Company sold to Koad a plot of land for the construction of a building group called “Caballito Nuevo”. As consideration Koad paid an amount of US$ 0.05 million and the balance of US$ 7.4 million will be cancelled by delivering 118 apartments and 55 parking units within the maximum term of 1,188 days.

This legal reserve may be used only to absorb losses.

 

  ii) See Note 17.

NOTE 14: RESTRICTED ASSETS

Unification of professional accounting standards

The Company in accordance with the new accounting standards (See Res. Gral CNV 485/05 y 487/06) has decided not to recognize the deferred liability generated by the effect of the adjustment for inflation on the fixed assets and other non-monetary assets. The estimated effect as of the date of the issuance of these unaudited financial statements that the adoption of the new criteria would have generated would be a decrease in shareholders’ equity of approximately Ps. 132.7 million which should be recorded in the income statement accounts of previous periods for Ps. 155.5 million (loss) and in the income statement accounts of the fiscal period Ps. 22.8 million (gain).

The above-mentioned liability would probably be reverted according to the detail that follows:

1. Acquisition of República Building

In April 2008, the company acquired a building known as “República Building”, a property located in Tucumán 1, Buenos Aires. The company paid US$ 70.3 million.

The Company consulted with the Argentine Antitrust Commission as regards the need to notify such operation as one of economic concentration. The Argentine Antitrust Commission resolved that, in effect, such operation had to be reported and the Company challenged this ruling judicially. As of the date of these financial statements, there was no final sentence as to this matter.

2. Acquisition of the Bouchard Building

In March 2007, the company acquired the building known as “Bouchard Plaza” (including in place leases contracts) for an aggregate purchase price of US$ 84 million.

In April, 2008 the notice of the operation was filed with the Argentine Antitrust Commission. As of the date of these financial statements the commission has not issued the resolution yet.

3. Barter transaction with Cyrsa

In July 2008 the Company signed with Cyrsa a deed of exchange for US$ 12.6 million by which IRSA handed over to Cyrsa a plot of land in the Caballito neighborhood. On its part, Cyrsa committed itself to build a housing real estate development in such plot. In a first stage two buildings will be constructed and a third future building will be developed in the second stage, upon Cyrsa’s election.

As consideration Cyrsa paid US$ 0.12 million and the balance will be cancelled by handing over 25% of the functional units of the buildings to be constructed in the plot of land. If Cyrsa decides not to construct the third building by June 2010, then IRSA will receive the functional unit having the right to over-raise the future third building. To guarantee the compliance with its obligations Cyrsa has mortgaged the plot of land in the amount of US$ 12.6 million.

4. Acquisition of 50% of Torre Bankboston

In August 2007, the Company acquired the 50% of the building known as “Tower BankBoston” (including in place leases) located at Carlos María Della Paolera N° 265, Autonomous City of Buenos Aires for a total consideration of US$ 54 million.

3. Financial and capital market situation

In late 2008, the financial markets of the largest economies in the world were adversely affected by the prevailing conditions of volatility and illiquidity and by the credit crunch. This led in turn to a significant decline in the stock market indices at the international level which came hand in hand with a slow-down in the global economy.

As soon as the largest economies in the world started to intervene by injecting liquidity into the markets, interest rates responded with a downward trend which favored, in 2009, the recovery of stock and debt market indices. As regards the real economy at the global level, it remains to be seen whether the measures implemented by the different governments have had lasting positive effects.

As regards Argentina in 2008, the quotation of Government and corporate securities in the stock markets sustained dramatic drops whereas interest rates, the country risk rate and the exchange rates went upwards. In 2009, securities started to recover, particularly the instruments issued by the Argentine Government, with the ensuing impact on the valuation at fair value of the financial assets holdings maintained by Banco Hipotecario in its portfolio.

As regards the quotation of Banco Hipotecario’s shares, which had declined in recent quarters due to the overall market situation, it has significantly appreciated in the past months which corroborates our estimate that the decrease in the value of Banco Hipotecario’s shares disclosed at the end of fiscal 2009 had been temporary.

The management is evaluating and monitoring the effects derived from situations referred on the Company in order to adopt the necessary measures to soften the effects of the global situation to protect the Company equity.

4. Negative working capital

As of the end of the period, the company carried a working capital deficit which amounts to Ps. 53,887, whose treatment is being considered by the board of directors and the respective management.

IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones Sociedad Anónima

SUMMARY AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2009

Brief comments on the Company’s activities during the period, including references to significant situations occurred after the end of the period

Buenos Aires, November 11, 2009 - IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones Sociedad Anónima (NYSE: IRS) (BASE: IRSA), Argentina’s leading real estate company, announces the results of its operations for the three month period ended on September 30, 2009.

Macroeconomic Context

According to most recently released official data available at the date of issuance of this report and concerning the month of August 2009, the Economic Activity Monthly Estimator (EMAE) showed a 14.7% growth compared to the values recorded in January 2009, which would imply a recovery in the economic activity similar to the one registered last year.

As regards macroeconomic indicators, though the country’s fiscal surplus has deteriorated, with the Primary Result dropping by 2.23% in the first nine months of 2009 compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year, Argentina’s external accounts have performed favorably as the current account yielded a US$ 5,866 million surplus in the first half of calendar 2009 which was 134% higher than the figure posted a year earlier. Therefore, the Argentine Central Bank maintains a solid position in terms of reserves and as of September 30, 2009 it had succeeded in accumulating US$ 45,348 million. On top of the stabilization perceived in global financial conditions, the above circumstances have helped to improve liquidity conditions in the local market and access to credit by companies.

As concerns the various sectors of the economy, the main indicators show a certain slow-down in the pace of growth of activities. As concerns the construction industry, according to the data shown by the Indicator of Construction Activities (ISAC, in Spanish) prepared by the Argentine Institute of Statistics and Censuses (INDEC), construction activities have dropped by 3.9% in the period July-September 2009 compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year, whereas in calendar 2008 such indicator has grown by 5.9%. As regards retail sales, sales in supermarkets and shopping centers have grown by 10.4% and by 7.8% respectively in the third quarter of the calendar year compared to the same quarter of the previous fiscal year whereas during calendar 2008 these sales grew by 27.8% and by 17.2%.

As regards the demand for homes in the residential real estate market after the shrinkage in demand seen in the first half of the year, home prices remained relatively stable and there was an increase in the number of real estate transactions closed in the third quarter of 2009. Compared to other countries, no sub-prime mortgage crisis is to be expected in our market affecting the value of homes as it occurred in other economies because home loans here still stand for less than 2% of this country’s GDP.

As concerns the office rental market in Buenos Aires, since the end of 2008 and as a result of the changes occurred in the economic scenario and the larger availability of surface area mainly due to the addition of footage to the market, there was an increase in vacancy rates which affected the general market price levels.

As regards the hotel sector, according to the data released by the Tourism Secretariat in its International Tourism Survey (ETI) as of August, 2009 the number of tourists arriving in Argentina (accumulated 12-month data) fell by approximately 31.8% compared to the cumulative figures for the same period a year earlier. That was mainly due to the impact of the worldwide financial crisis and the H1N1 Influenza outbreak.

Despite an overall less favorable context, the Company’s segments continue to show a robust position in the current scenario thanks to the quality of our assets, which the market still perceives as attractive. This in turn translates into high levels of occupancy and cash generation combined with low short-term indebtedness. This allows us to assert that we are in a position to sustain our market leadership.

Comments on operations during the quarter ended on September 30, 2009

Our revenues amounted to Ps.263.2 million as of September 30, 2009 compared to Ps. 218.4 million as of September 30, 2008. The share of the Company’s various segments in net sales was as follows: Sale and Development of properties rose to Ps. 36.3 million attributable to sales of office properties, Offices and Other rose by 35.7% to Ps. 40.7 million, Shopping Centers rose by 19.6% to Ps. 113.8 million, Hotels operations shrank by 30.8% to Ps.29.2 million, whereas Consumer Financing totaled Ps. 43.2 million.

Our operating income rose and totaled Ps. 111.6 million for the three months ended on September 30, 2009 compared to Ps. -0.9 million for the same period of the previous fiscal year, which difference is mainly explained by the operating income posted by the Sale and Development of properties and Consumer Financing segments.

As regards financial results, they entailed a Ps. 41.5 million loss for the three month period ended on September 30, 2009, compared to a Ps.61.7 million loss in the same period of fiscal 2008, due to a lower impact of the exchange rate fluctuations caused by the slower pace of devaluation in this quarter compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year.

Finally, the results from related companies showed an income of Ps.97.2 million for the first three months of fiscal 2010 compared to a Ps.28.6 million loss in the same period of fiscal 2009 due to the performance of our investment in Banco Hipotecario S.A. and the increase of our interest in such institution.

Therefore, net income for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 totaled Ps. 131.4 million.

Highlights for the first quarter of fiscal year 2010, including references to significant situations occurred after the end of the period.

I. Offices and Other

During the first three months of fiscal 2010, income from rental properties totaled Ps. 40.7 million, equivalent to a 35.7% increase compared to the Ps. 30.0 million recorded in the same period of fiscal year 2009.

This result was explained by the increase in the rental prices in american dollars, reflecting the solid asset portfolio held by IRSA in this segment.

IRSA has grown considerably in this segment in recent years, as shown by the increase in leasable areas and low vacancy rates, combined with higher lease rates. The acquisitions made have helped IRSA to gain a strong leading position in the Buenos Aires office rental market.

Occupancy levels at our offices were 91% at the end of the first three months of fiscal 2010.

Dique IV, Puerto Madero. About mid-May 2009 we completed an office building located in Puerto Madero’s Dock IV. It is a luxury building with a leasable area of approximately 11,298 square meters composed of large and versatile spaces. Its lay-out is optimum both for companies that require smaller office space at an average of 200 square meters and for corporations that need the entire floor. The building has nine office stories and retail stores in the first story. The occupancy percentage as of September 30, 2009 was 89.21%. The period ended September 30, 2009 was the first full quarter of business activity of this office building.

PAMSA Offices. Our subsidiary APSA is in the process of completing the development of an office building with a gross leasable area of 10,500 sqm adjacent to the shopping center opened in May 2009, Dot Baires. This building will be operational in early 2010 and it shall mark the entrance by the Company in the growing rental office corridor in the northern area of the City of Buenos Aires.

II. Alto Palermo S.A. (“APSA”): Shopping Centers and Consumer Financing

The following information relates to data extracted from the balance sheet of our subsidiary Alto Palermo S.A. (APSA), the company that operates our shopping center business, in which we had a 63.3% interest as of September 30, 2009.

During the three-month period ended on September 30, 2009 our tenants’ sales amounted to Ps. 1,231.5 million. In nominal terms, this amount points to a 19.98% increase compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year and including in the consideration the volume of operations contributed by Dot Baires. And without including Dot Baires in the consideration, our tenants’ sales, as accumulated for the first quarter of fiscal 2010, rose by 4.5% compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year. This increase reflects the influence of the operating volumes registered in July, which were adversely affected by the Influenza “A” outbreak. By September, sales in shopping centers showed a recovery compared to the same month of the previous year, as they rose by 13.5% without including Dot Baires Shopping in the consideration.

The business success of our tenants allows us to maintain the occupancy rates at our Shopping Centers at 97.9%.

DOT BAIRES SHOPPING. Dot Baires Shopping is the largest shopping center in the City of Buenos Aires in terms of square meters. It was opened in May 2009 and it is located in the Saavedra neighborhood at the spot where Av. General Paz meets the Panamerican Highway. It has 4 floors and 3 underground levels, a covered surface area of 173,000 square meters, of which 49,731 constitute Gross Leasable Area, 153 retail stores, a hypermarket, a 10-screen multiplex movie theater and parking space for 2,200 vehicles. The period ended on September 30, 2009 marks the first full quarter of business activities in the shopping center.

On November 5, 2009, Dot Baires Shopping was rewarded by the International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC) as the Best Shopping Center in Latin America under the category Development and Design 2009.

Consumer Financing – Tarshop S.A. Subsidiary

During fiscal year 2009, and as a result of the international financial context, Alto Palermo S.A. faced the need to review economic prospects in general and to revise Tarshop’s business prospects in particular: several decisions were made, all aimed at strengthening the business in the face of the prevailing economic situation.

To face the growing volatility in the international financial scenario and to provide Tarshop with a suitable capital base taking into account the current market conditions, during the first quarter of fiscal year 2009, Alto Palermo S.A. decided to take part in a capital increase for up to Ps.60 million, and increased its equity stake in the company from 80% to 93.4%.

Some of the commercial actions implemented during fiscal year 2009 include:

 

  (i) Streamlining of the operating structure to gear with the new business context.

 

  (ii) Revision of cash lending plans and financing of purchases at retail stores.

 

  (iii) Changes in the Loan Origination Policies.

 

  (iv) Strengthening of Collection Management scheme.

 

  (v) Analysis and implementation of new funding tools.

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2009, Alto Palermo S.A. provided financial assistance to Tarshop S.A. for an amount of Ps. 105 million, subsequently accepted as an irrevocable contribution. This action was taken for the purpose of strengthening its equity position and improving its financial position, discharging operating expenses and repositioning Tarshop S.A. in the market, given the complex situation prevailing in the financial trust market, its main historical funding source. The capitalization of such irrevocable contribution was decided at Tarshop S.A.’s General Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting held on October 30, 2009. After this capitalization, the equity stake in such company amounts to 98.59%.

Thanks to the increased stringency in the origination requirements and the measures now in place to control portfolio delinquency, the loan portfolio including securitized coupons as of September 30, 2009 amounted to Ps. 596.0 million, 34.0% less than the Ps. 903.2 million portfolio posted in the same period of the previous fiscal year. Delinquent loans past 90 to 180 days represented 4.21% of the portfolio which shows an improvement since December 2008 in the performance measured by this indicator.

The following chart illustrates the changes in Loan Balance at the end of each month and the recovery of 3 to 6 month delinquency rates.

Therefore, net revenues went down an 11.4% from Ps. 48.8 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2008, to Ps. 43.2 million for the same period of the current fiscal year. Gross profit stood at Ps. 15.3 million and the operating result recorded an income of Ps. 5.3 million, which reflects an improvement when compared to the Ps. 75.0 million loss obtained in the three-month period ended on September 30, 2008. Net income for the three-month period ended on September 30, 2009 finally recorded an income of Ps. 1.6 million, reverting the trend of the last quarters. This reflects a recovery in Tarshop S.A.’s results of operations, owing to the measures adopted and the improvement in capitalization combined with a relative stabilization in local financial markets, a decline in the write-off of bad debts and a decrease in operating expenses, confirming the diagnosis we had previously made.

III. Sale and Development of properties

In the three-month period ended September 30, 2009, revenues in the Sale and Development of properties segment amounted to Ps. 36.3 million, compared to Ps. 2.3 million for the same period of the previous fiscal year. This was mainly due to the sale of 4 office stories in non-strategical buildings for around US$ 3,000 per square meter, when previous to the current world financial crisis we had paid similar amounts to acquire two of the most premium buildings in Argentina, such as Edificio República and Torre BankBoston. This reflects the strength of the local real estate market, which is perceived by investors as a high quality alternative to preserve their wealth in spite of the volatility in the world markets.

Below are the Company’s principal developments:

Torre Caballito, City of Buenos Aires. This property, with a surface of 8,404 square meters, is situated in the northern area of Caballito’s residential neighborhood in the City of Buenos Aires. On May 4, 2006, we and Koad S.A. (“Koad”), an Argentine developer, entered into an asset exchange agreement valued at US$7.5 million pursuant to which we sold to Koad plot number 36 of “Terrenos de Caballito” in exchange for Koad’s agreement to construct, at its sole expense, a residential complex to be named “Caballito Nuevo”, planned to span over a total area estimated at 28,000 sqm that will accommodate a residential complex consisting of two 34-story towers containing 220 apartments each, consisting of one, two and three bedroom residential units with surface areas ranging from 40 to 85 square meters. The proposed apartment complex is currently expected to offer a wide variety of amenities and services. We estimate that KOAD S.A. will deliver to IRSA the title deed and possession over 118 apartments and 55 parking spaces in the first half of calendar 2010, roughly equivalent to 25% of IRSA’s own square meters to comply with the above-mentioned agreement. As a consequence of this transaction, KOAD S.A. granted to us a first lien mortgage on the property to secure up to US$7.4 million of its obligations to us and posted a surety bond in our favor to secure an additional US$2.0 million of Koad’s obligations to us. The degree of completion is presently 87% and sales efforts were launched in December 2008. The execution of preliminary sales deeds started already in January 2009 and as of September 30, 2009 the preliminary sales deed executed total 50 apartments and 20 parking lots for a sales value of about US$ 4.13 million.

Vicente López, Olivos, Province of Buenos Aires. In January, 2007, we acquired a company whose main asset is a plot of land located in Vicente Lopez, Province of Buenos Aires, for US$ 21.17 million.

At the same time, a plot of land adjacent to said property was acquired for a purchase price of US$ 15.0 million.

In April 2007, we created CYRSA S.A. in order to have a corporate vehicle to facilitate the development of a specific project together with one or more investors having in-depth knowledge and vast experience in the industry. Also at that time, IRSA and Cyrela made contributions to CYRSA which include the plots of land and the debt related to the acquisition of the plot of land mentioned for CYRSA to develop its first project.

CYRSA’s first project, which has been developed in a plot made up by two adjacent blocks in the Vicente López neighborhood, was launched in March under the name “Horizons”. It is one of the most significant developments in Greater Buenos Aires and it will entail a new concept in residential complexes given its emphasis on the use of common spaces. This project includes two complexes with a total of six buildings; one of them facing the river with three 14-floor buildings (the “River” complex) and the other on Avenida del Libertador with three 17-floor buildings (the “Park” complex), totaling 59,000 square meters built for sale distributed in 467 units (including the units to be delivered in exchange for the acquisition of land). With its unique and innovating style in residential complexes, Horizons has 32 amenities, including a

meeting room, a work zone, indoor swimming pools, club house and spa, sauna, gym, children room, teen room; theme-park areas; and aerobic trail, to name a few. The showroom was opened to the public in March 2008 with immediate success. As of the date of these financial statements, preliminary sales agreements had been executed for 99% of our own units on sale.

As of September 30, 2009, the degree of progress of the works is above 30.0%, and its conclusion and delivery are expected to occur over the course of fiscal year 2011.

Caballito lot, Ferro Project. This is a property of approximately 25,539 square meters in the City of Buenos Aires, neighborhood of Caballito, one of the most densely populated of the city, which Alto Palermo purchased in November 1997. This plot would allow developing a shopping center having 30,000 square meters, a hypermarket, a cinema complex, and several recreation and entertainment activity areas. We are currently working to define the commercial project. At present, the legislature of the City of Buenos Aires has received a legislative bill to approve the zoning parameters corresponding to this property.

Coto Residential Project. Alto Palermo owns approximately 24,000 sqm in air space over the top of the Coto hypermarket that is close to the Abasto Shopping Center in the heart of the City of Buenos Aires. Alto Palermo S.A. and Coto Centro Integral de Comercialización S.A. (Coto) executed and delivered a deed dated September 24, 1997 whereby APSA acquired the rights to receive parking units and the rights to build on top of the premises located in the block formed by the streets Agüero, Lavalle, Guardia Vieja and Gallo, in the Abasto neighborhood. In the course of fiscal 2009, a conditional barter agreement was executed, pursuant to which APSA would transfer to Cyrsa 112 parking units and the rights to erect on top of the hypermarket two building towers in so far as a number of conditions are met. In exchange, Cyrsa would deliver to APSA an as of yet undefined number of units in the building to be erected equivalent to 25% of the square meters that as a whole do not total less than 4,053.5 of own square meters to be built. For this barter to be consummated, the conditions precedent require Coto, the current owner of the real estate mentioned above that currently hosts a hypermarket, retail stores and parking spaces, to provide certain essential services.

Torres Rosario Project, City of Rosario, Province of Santa Fe. The project, being implemented by our subsidiary Alto Palermo, spans over an entire block, sub-divided into 8 parcels covering approximately 50,000 square meters overall. As of September 30, 2009, a barter was executed over 2 of the 8 parcels with Condominios del Alto S.A. (parcels 2 “G” and 2 “H”) with 6 parcels pending sale and amounting to approximately 31,000 square meters of surface area in the aggregate.

The barter of Lot 2”G” comprises a total of 7,901 sqm to be applied to the construction of homes in exchange for 15 units to be built with an area of 1,504 sqm and 15 parking lots.

The barter of Lot 2”H” comprises 11,687 sqm for sale, 22% of which (3,188 sqm) would be for Alto Palermo as consideration. This area represents 42 units and 47 car spaces.

The degree of progress of the works as of September 30, 2009 is 78% in Parcel 2”G” and 10% in Parcel 2”H”, and they are estimated to be completed in July 2010 and December 2011, respectively.

IV. Hotels Operations

Income from the Hotel segment dropped by 30.8%, down from Ps. 42.2 million for the first three months of fiscal year 2009 to Ps. 29.2 million for the same period of fiscal year 2010.

This was mainly due to the decrease in average occupancy, which stood at 49.4% compared to 73.1% for the same period of the previous fiscal year, partially offset by the performance of the average rate, which in the first three-month period of fiscal 2010 reached an average Ps.644 per room rate, compared to Ps.638 in the previous period. This drop in the occupancy average can be attributed to Hotel Llao-Llao and Hotel Intercontinental, whose average occupancy level for the three-month period ended September 2009 was 32.7% and 49.0%, respectively.

The following is information about our hotels for the three-month period ended as of September 30, 2009.

ACQUISITION OF OWNERSHIP INTEREST IN HERSHA HOSPITALITY TRUST

On August 4, 2009, the Company, through Real Estate Investment Group (“REIG”), controlled and managed by IRSA, acquired 5,700,000 ordinary shares which represent, approximately, a 10.4% stake in Hersha Hospitality Trust’s capital stock (“Hersha”). Together with the acquisition of this shareholding, REIG is entitled to an option for a 5-year term to purchase a further 5,700,000 ordinary shares at a price of US$ 3 per share. The total purchase price payable by REIG was US$ 14,250,000. Also contemplated in the investment agreements was the appointment of our Chairman and CEO, Mr. Eduardo S. Elsztain to the position of member of Hersha’s Board of Directors. As a result of this acquisition, IRSA’s total direct and indirect interest in Hersha is 7.36% as of September 30, 2009. Besides, in the event that all the holders exercise the options held by them, IRSA’s direct and indirect interest in Hersha would amount to 11.01%.

Hersha is a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) listed in the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the “HT” symbol that holds majority interests in 73 hotels throughout the United States of America totaling approximately 9,294 rooms. These hotels are rated as “select service” and “upscale hotels” and they are mainly located in the Northeast coast of the US, including New York, New Jersey, Boston, Washington D.C. and Philadelphia, whilst a few are located in northern California and some others in Arizona. These properties are operated under franchises that are leaders and enjoy widespread recognition in their markets, such as Marriott International, Intercontinental Hotel Group, Starwood Hotels, Hilton Hotels Corporation, Global Hyatt Corporation and Choice Hotels International.

ACQUISITION OF SHARES IN BANCO HIPOTECARIO S.A.

In September 2009, Tyrus S.A. (a 100% controlled subsidiary) acquired 4,012,778 ADRs of Banco Hipotecario S.A., representative of 10 class D shares of nominal value $ 1 per share, for a total amount of US$ 10.0 million.

VI. Brief comment on prospects for the next quarter

Our business performance has remained solid in the midst of a more adverse juncture compared to the previous year, thanks to the quality of our assets, which has translated into high occupancy levels and cash flow generation capacity.

Our shopping centers maintain very high occupancy levels and adhesion by tenants. The rhythm of sales in our shopping centers recovered toward the closing of the quarter after the deceleration experienced in July as a consequence of the H1N1 influenza outbreak. Tenants adhere to our new proposals, as shown by Dot Baires’ full occupancy levels. We will continue to work to improve commercial proposals in our portfolio, seeking to maintain high occupancy levels and traffic in our shopping centers and sustain sales growth rates, and working with the goal of enhancing our portfolio. In this sense, we will continue to make progress in the proceedings for obtaining authorization for the construction of a Shopping Center in Caballito, and we expect to conclude the acquisition of Shopping Soleil during this fiscal year.

As concerns the Consumer Financing business, the first quarter of the fiscal year saw a profit that is the result of the efforts made in the previous year to streamline and stabilize the business in light of the new economic scenario. We will continue to work with the aim of improving the operating and financial performance of this segment.

As concerns the lease Office and other segment, despite the year-on-year drop in occupancy levels lease revenues have remained firm, both in pesos and dollars. We believe that there is some stagnation in the market in terms of occupancy rates and pricing levels caused by the market conditions and the addition of footage, mainly in the northern area of Buenos Aires and Greater Buenos Aires. In reply, we have a unique premium portfolio in the Buenos Aires downtown that arouses interest in the market among top-quality lessees. We will continue working toward maintaining high occupancy levels and optimizing our portfolio mix.

Regarding the Sale and Development of properties segment, we will make progress in the works schedule of the Horizons project through our subsidiary Cyrsa, where we have already started to recognize income. As concerns other ventures, we will continue sales in the Caballito Nuevo complex, in which work progress stands at 87%, and we will continue to work aimed at launching the project that involves the construction of tower buildings in the property adjacent to Shopping Abasto.

2. We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by Technical Resolution No. 7 of the Argentine Federation of Professional Councils of Economic Sciences for limited reviews of financial statements. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

 

3. Based on our work and examinations of the financial statements of the Company and the consolidated financial statements for the years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, on which we issued our unqualified report on September 8, 2009, we report that:

 

  a) the financial statements of IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones Sociedad Anónima at September 30, 2009 and 2008 and its consolidated financial statements at those dates, set out in point 1., prepared in accordance with accounting standards prevailing in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, include all significant facts and circumstances of which we are aware and we have no observations to make on them.

  b) the comparative information included in the basic and consolidated balance sheets and the supplementary notes and exhibits to the attached financial statements arise from the Company’s financial statements at June 30, 2009.

  c) we have read the business highlights and the additional information to the notes to the financial statements required by sect. 68 of the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange Regulations, on which, as regards those matters that are within our competence, we have no observations to make; and

 

  d) at September 30, 2009, the debt accrued in favor of the Argentine Integrated Pension System according to the accounting records amounted to thousands of Ps. 978, none of which was claimable at that date.
