The Group’s business and general information

IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones Sociedad Anónima (“IRSA” or “the Company”) was founded in 1943 engaged in a diversified range of real estate activities in Argentina since 1991.

IRSA and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to hereinafter as “the Group”.

As of September 30, 2012, the Group operates in six business segments. See Note 5 for a description of the Group’s segments.

The Group’s real estate business operations are conducted primarily through IRSA and IRSA’s principal subsidiary, Alto Palermo S.A. (“APSA”). Through APSA, the Group primarily owns, manages and develops shopping centers across Argentina. The Group primarily owns, manages and develops a portfolio of office and other rental properties in Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina. Through IRSA or APSA, the Group also develops residential properties for sale. The Group, through IRSA, is also involved in the operation of branded hotels. The Group uses the term “real estate” indistinctively in these consolidated financial statements to denote investment, development and/or trading properties activities.

The Group’s segment “Financial operations and others” is carried out mainly through Banco Hipotecario S.A. (“BHSA”), where IRSA has a 30.51% interst. BHSA is a commercial bank offering a wide variety of banking activities and related financial services to individuals, small and medium-sized companies and large corporations, including the provision of mortgaged loans. BHSA’s shares are listed on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange (“BASE”).

Basis of preparation and adoption of international financial reporting standards (“IFRS”)

2.1  
Basis of preparation and transition to IFRS

The National Securities Commission, (“CNV”, as per its Spanish acronym), through General Resolutions No. 562/9 and 576/10, has provided for the application of Technical Resolutions No. 26 and 29 of the Argentine Federation of Professional Councils of Economic Sciences, which adopt the IFRS, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), for companies subject to the public offering regime ruled by Law 17,811, due to the listing of their shares or corporate notes, and for entities that have applied for authorization to be listed under the mentioned regime.
 
The Group is required to adopt IFRS as from the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2012, being the current financial statements the first interim financial statements prepared under IFRS as published by the IASB. Consequently, the Group’s transition date for the adoption of IFRS is July 1, 2011.
 
The Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements of the Group for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards (“IAS”) 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” and IFRS 1 “First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards”. The Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies that the Group expects to adopt in its annual consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2013. The accounting policies are based on IFRS issued by the IASB and the interpretations issued by the IFRS Interpretation Committee (“IFRIC”) that the Group expects to become applicable on such date.

The consolidated financial statements of the Group were prepared in accordance with the Argentine accounting standards (“Argentine GAAP”) in force, which differ from IFRS in some areas. To prepare these Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, the Management of the Company has modified certain valuation and presentation accounting policies that were previously applied under Argentine GAAP in order to comply with the IFRS.

Comparative figures and figures as of the transition date (July 1, 2011) have been modified to reflect such adjustments. The notes below include a reconciliation of shareholders’ equity figures of consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with the Argentine GAAP on the transition date (July 1, 2011), on the adoption date (June 30, 2012) and on the closing date of the comparative period (September 30, 2011) and the statements of income and other comprehensive income figures for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 and for the three-month period ended September 30, 2011, and those presented in accordance with the IFRS in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, as well as the effects of the adjustments to cash flow.

2.  
Preparation and adoption of international financial reporting standards (“IFRS”) (Continued)

These Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements should be read together with the annual financial statements of the Group as of June 30, 2012 prepared in accordance with Argentine GAAP in force. Exhibit I present additional information as of June 30, 2012 and July 1, 2011 under IFRS which is considered necessary to understand these condensed interim consolidated financial statements. The figures corresponding to the unaudited statement of financial position, the statement of income, the statement of changes in shareholders’ equity, and the statement of cash flows under IFRS for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, and the figures of the statement of financial position as of July 1, 2011 are detailed in Note 2.3 to these Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements. The Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in Argentine Pesos.

The format of the primary financial statements under Argentine GAAP is governed by Technical Resolutions 8 and 9 of the Argentine Federation of Professional Councils of Economic Science (as per its Spanish acronym “FACPCE”) and Resolutions of the CNV. IAS 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements” requires certain disclosures to be made on the face of the primary statements and other required disclosures may be made in the notes or on the face of the financial statements, unless another standard specifies otherwise. The transition to IFRS has resulted in the Group changing the format of its statement of income, statement of financial position and statement of cash flows, as well as the disclosure of certain line items not prescribed by Argentine GAAP.

2.2  
Initial elections upon adoption of IFRS

IFRS exemption options

As a general rule, the Group is required to establish its IFRS accounting policies for the year ended June 30, 2013 and apply these retrospectively. However, advantage has been taken of certain exemptions afforded by IFRS 1 “First-time adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards” as further described below:

Exemption for business combinations

IFRS 1 provides the option to apply IFRS 3, “Business combinations”, prospectively from the transition date or from a specific date prior to the transition date. This provides relief from full retrospective application that would require restatement of all business combinations prior to the transition date. The Group elected to apply IFRS 3 prospectively to business combinations occurring after its transition date. Business combinations occurring prior to the transition date have not been restated.

The business combination exemption applies equally to acquisitions of investments in associates or joint ventures. The Group elected not to restate the acquisitions of investments in associates or joint ventures prior to transition date.

2.  
Basis of preparation and adoption of international financial reporting standards (“IFRS”) (Continued)

Exemption for deemed cost

IFRS 1 allows previous GAAP revaluations to be used as deemed cost under IFRS if those valuations were, at the time of the valuation, equivalent to fair value or depreciated cost adjusted to reflect changes in a price index. The Group elected to measure certain items of property, plant and equipment and investment property at price-adjusted values as at July 1, 2011.

In addition, IFRS 1 allows the carrying values of the assets and liabilities immediately following a business combination to be deemed cost for any cost-based measurement going forward from the date of the combination. The Group adopted a cost-based policy for all of its assets. As such, the Group used the previous fair values recognized in past business combinations (not restated as per the business combination exemption above) for certain items of investment property and property, plant and equipment (primarily shopping centers, office buildings and hotels) as deemed cost at the date of transition. All depreciation methods were already in compliance with those required by IAS 16, “Property, plant and equipment”.

Exemption for accumulated exchange differences

The IFRS 1 allows accumulated exchange differences to be reset to zero on the transition date, thus avoiding the determination of accumulated exchange differences pursuant to IAS 21 “Effects of changes in foreign exchange rates” from the moment a subsidiary or associate was created or acquired. The Group chose to reset all accumulated exchange differences to zero on the transition date.
 

Exemption for compound financial instruments

IFRS 1 provides that if the liability component of a financial instrument is no longer outstanding at the date of transition to IFRS, first-time adopters do not have to separate it from the equity component. The Group elected not to restate convertible debt instruments that were not outstanding at the date of transition.

Exemption for borrowing costs

IFRS 1 has been amended to permit first-time adopters not to restate borrowing costs capitalized at transition date under previous GAAP. The Group elected to apply the provisions of IAS 23 “Borrowing costs” prospectively from the date of transition.

2.  
Basis of preparation and adoption of international financial reporting standards (“IFRS”) (Continued)

Exemption for assets and liabilities of subsidiaries

In accordance with IFRS 1, if a parent company adopts IFRS subsequent to its subsidiary, associate or joint venture adopting IFRS, the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary, associate or joint venture are to be included in the consolidated financial statements at the same carrying amounts as in the financial statements of the subsidiary, associate or joint venture, adjusted to reflect changes for the Group’s accounting policies upon consolidation, as applicable. The Group’s associate, Tarshop S.A., adopted IFRS in December 31, 2011.

The group has not used other optional exemptions of IFRS 1.

IFRS mandatory exceptions

Set out below are the applicable mandatory exceptions in IFRS 1 applied in the conversion from Argentine GAAP to IFRS.

Exemption for estimates

IFRS estimates as at July 1, 2011 are consistent with the estimates as at the same date made in conformity with Argentine GAAP. Therefore the estimates made by the Group under previous GAAP were not revised for application of IFRS except where necessary to reflect any difference in accounting policies.

Exemption for non-controlling interests

IFRS 1 establishes that an entity must apply the requirements IFRS 10 “Consolidated financial statements” for accounting for changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control prospectively. Under previous GAAP, the Group accounted for acquisitions of non-controlling interests that did not result in change of control as business combinations. Furthermore, under Argentine GAAP, the Group accounted for disposals of non-controlling interests based on its carrying value at the date of disposal, recognizing any difference between the carrying value of the non-controlling interest and the consideration received in the statement of income. The Group did not restate these acquisitions prior to transition date.

2.  
Basis of preparation and adoption of international financial reporting standards (“IFRS”) (Continued)

IFRS 1 establishes that an entity must apply the requirements of IFRS 10 for accounting for a loss of control over a subsidiary prospectively. Under Argentine GAAP, the Company recognized any non-controlling equity investment retained under the equity method at the date control was lost.

The other compulsory exceptions of IFRS 1 have not been applied, as these are not relevant to the Group.

2.3  
Reconciliations of Argentine GAAP to IFRS

In accordance with the requirements of Technical Resolution No. 26 and 29 of the FACPCE, set out below are the reconciliations of shareholders’ equity from Argentine GAAP to IFRS at June 30, 2012, at September 30, 2011 and July 1, 2011, and the reconciliations of income, comprehensive income and cash flows for the year ended June 30, 2012 and for the three-month period ended September 30, 2011.  The reconciliations included below were prepared based on the IFRS standards that are estimated to be applicable for the Company for the financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2013. The items and amounts in the reconciliations included below are subject to change and should only be deemed final when the annual financial statements prepared under IFRS for the first time as of and for the year ended June 30, 2013 are issued. The items and amounts included in the reconciliations could be modified to the extent that, when preparing financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2013, applicable standards are different.

The first reconciliation provides an overview of the impact on equity of the transition at July 1, 2011, at September 30, 2011 and June 30, 2012 (Note 2.3.1). The following reconciliations provide details of the impact of the transition on:

·  
Shareholders’ equity at July 1, 2011 (Note 2.3.2)
·  
Shareholders’ equity at September 30, 2011 (Note 2.3.3)
·

2.3.10. 
Explanation of the transition to IFRS

In addition to the exemptions and exceptions discussed above, the following narratives explain the significant differences between the previous historical Argentine GAAP accounting policies and the current IFRS accounting policies applied by the Group. Only the differences having an impact on the Group are explained below. The following is not a complete summary of all of the differences between Argentine GAAP and IFRS. The descriptive caption next to each numbered item below corresponds to the same numbered and descriptive caption in the reconciliations above, which reflect the quantitative impacts from each change.

Column I in the tables on previous pages represents Argentine GAAP balances prior to transition as published in the latest Group’s Argentine GAAP financial statements as of and for the year ended June 20, 3012 compared to transition date (July 1, 2011), and in the Company’s Argentine GAAP financial statements for the three-month period ended September 30, 2011. However, certain reclassifications and/or groupings have already been made in Column I to avoid lengthy explanations of certain format changes introduced in these first IFRS financial statements. The following changes have been made to the previous Argentine GAAP statement of financial position in Column I:

(1)  
The line items “Trade receivables” and “Other receivables” have been grouped into the new line item “Trade and other receivables”.
 
(2)  
The line items “Trade payables”, “Customer advances”, “Taxes payable” and “Other liabilities” have been also grouped into the new line item “Trade and other payables”, with the exception of income tax payable and deferred income tax which have been shown separately.

(3)  
Goodwill which was previously disclosed separately offsetting negative goodwill has been included as part of “Intangible assets”.

(4)  
Cash equivalents previously disclosed as part of the line item current investments have been grouped together with cash and banks, in the line named “Cash and cash equivalents”.

Basis of preparation and adoption of international financial reporting standards (“IFRS”) (Continued)

(5)  
Derivative financial instruments which were previously included as part of the non-current line items “Other receivables”, “Other payables” and/ or “Investments” have been disclosed as separate assets or liabilities as appropriate.

(6)  
Investments in associates previously included as part of “Non-current investments” have been separately disclosed in the new line item “Investments in associates and joint ventures”.

 
(7)  
The portion of equity in a subsidiary not attributable directly or indirectly to a parent is known as “Minority interest” and is classified as a separate component between the liability and equity sections of the statement of financial position (mezzanine section). IFRS 10 “Consolidated financial statements” specifies that a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary is an ownership interest in the consolidated entity that should be reported as a separate component within equity in the consolidated financial statements. The Group has non-controlling interest in more than one subsidiary. Accordingly, the Group aggregated its various non-controlling interests on the consolidated statements, renamed them as “Non-controlling interest” and reclassified the aggregated amount from the mezzanine section to shareholders’ equity at transition date.

 
The following changes have been made to the statement of comprehensive income for the year ended June 30, 2012 and for the three-month period ended September 30, 2011:

(1)  
The format of the income statement has been restructured to simplify its reading. To that effect, all revenue streams of the Group which were previously disclosed separately (i.e. sales of development properties, leases and services revenue, and hotel revenue, together with its corresponding costs of sales, have been aggregated into two line items titled "Revenues" and "Costs" in Column I. Revenues and Costs are then cross-referenced to the respective notes in the financial statements where a detailed breakdown is provided per line of business.

(2)  
Pursuant to the Argentine accounting standards in force, the share of losses and profits from associates is shown after the financial income (expense) line, on the grounds that they  arise from an investment type of activity. Likewise, under IFRS, the share of profits and losses from associates is generally shown after the financial income (expense) line. However, where associates and joint ventures are an integral vehicle to carry out the Group’s operations, it is more adequate to show the share of profits and losses of associates and joint ventures before financial income (expense). In accordance with its strategy, the Group conducts its operations through controlled companies or joint ventures. Therefore, under the IFRS, the Group shows the profits or losses from associates and joint ventures before the financial income(expense) line. For simplicity, the share of profits and losses associates is shown before financial income (expenses), in Column I.

Basis of preparation and adoption of international financial reporting standards (“IFRS”) (Continued)

(3)  
Non-controlling interests in the income of a consolidated subsidiary which was previously classified as a component of net earnings within the income statement has been presented as an allocation of net earnings in Column I. As part of the adoption to IFRS, the term "Minority interest" has also been replaced with the new term "non-controlling interest" in accordance with IAS 1.

(4)  
Under the Argentine accounting standards in force, financial income (expense) is broken down depending on whether it is generated by assets or liabilities. Under the IFRSs, the Group has adopted the criterion of showing financial income and financial expenses on different lines in the income statement. For simplicity, the Group has reclassified the figures as per Argentine GAAP shown under “Financial income (expense) generated by assets” and “Financial income (expense) generated by liabilities”, into “Financial income” and “Financial expense” as established by the IFRS, as applicable, in Column I.

 
(5)  
According to IFRS, income and expense items not recognized in the statement of income (that is, exchange differences related to translation of foreign businesses) are shown in the comprehensive income statement as “Other comprehensive income”. According to Argentine GAAP, the statement of comprehensive income is not mandatory and, therefore, such items are recognized as part of shareholders’ equity, in a separate reserve account.  For simplicity, these items are shown in “Other comprehensive income” in Column I.

  2.3.10.1
 Deconsolidation of joint ventures (Column II)

Argentine GAAP – Entities in which the Group has joint control are proportionately consolidated. As of July 1, 2011, the Group’s joint ventures are Cyrsa S.A., Canteras Natal Crespo S.A., Puerto Retiro S.A., Baicom Networks S.A., Quality Invest S.A and Nuevo Puerto Santa Fe S.A.

IFRS - The Group has assessed the nature of its joint arrangements in line with IFRS 11 “Joint Arrangements” and determined them to be joint ventures. Joint ventures are accounted for under the equity method of accounting.

As a result, the Group deconsolidated the accounts of the joint ventures and presented them as a single line item on the face of the statement of financial position. Column II titled “Deconsolidation of joint ventures” reflects the elimination on a line-by-line basis of the Argentine GAAP pro-rata equity interest in the joint ventures and the of the Group’s investments in the joint ventures as a single line item titled “Investments in associates and joint ventures” on the statement of financial position and as a single line item titled “Share of profit or loss of associates and joint ventures” on the statement of income. The impact of the IFRS adjustments on joint venture balances in further discussed in Note 2.3.10.2 below.

Presentation reclassifications (Column III)

Presentation reclassifications affecting the statement of financial position

The column titled “IFRS Reclassifications” reflects the various differences in content and format between the statement of financial position under Argentine GAAP and IFRS. Unless otherwise stated, amounts have been reclassified for presentational purposes under IFRS prior to affecting the corresponding IFRS adjustments, as applicable, to the Argentine GAAP amounts. The impact of the IFRS adjustments on reclassified balances is included in Column IV titled “IFRS Measurement Adjustments” and is further discussed in Note 2.3.10 below. Unless otherwise stated, these presentation reclassifications affect both the statement of financial position as at transition date, i.e. July 1, 2011, September 30, 2011 and June 30, 2012

(a) Investment properties

Argentine GAAP – There are not specific requirements for presentation of investment property. Accordingly, the Group does not present separately investment property and includes it as part of property, plant and equipment and non-current investments.

Certain property of the Group is being partially owner-occupied while the rest is being rented out to third parties. There is no such distinction under Argentine GAAP. Portions that are owner-occupied are accounted for and presented in the same way as portions that are being rented out.

Certain associates and joint ventures are currently occupying certain property of the Group. There is no distinction under Argentine GAAP and property rented out to associates or joint ventures are accounted for as property, plant and equipment.

IFRS – IAS 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements” requires investment property to be presented as a separate line item on the face of the statement of financial position within non-current assets.

In addition, the portions of the property that are being owner-occupied are accounted for and presented as property, plant and equipment under IAS 16 while the portions being rented out are treated and presented as investment property under IAS 40.

The Group’s property occupied by associates or joint ventures accounted for using the equity method of accounting is not considered part of the Group for consolidation purposes and, therefore, the property is not owner-occupied from the Group’s perspective. Therefore, this property is treated as investment property.

(b) Trading properties

Argentine GAAP – There are not specific requirements for separate presentation of trading properties. Trading properties is included as part of inventories and non-current investments.

IFRS – Trading properties are inventories under IAS 2 “Inventories”. The Group also has harvested, materials and supplies, and other items classified as inventories under IAS 2. Due to the significance and different nature of these inventories, the Group decided to present trading property separately.

(c) In-kind receivables from barter transactions

Argentine GAAP – In-kind receivables from barter transactions representing the Group’s right to receive residential apartments to be constructed by a third-party developer are classified as inventory on the face of the statement of financial position.

IFRS – In-kind receivables representing the Group’s right to receive residential apartments to be constructed by a third-party developer are not financial assets under IFRS. These in-kind receivables are similar to trading property and they are classified accordingly in current or non-current assets, as appropriate.

(d) Non-current investments – financial assets

Argentine GAAP – There are not specific requirements for separate presentation of financial assets. Certain financial assets carried at cost under Argentine GAAP were included within non-current investments.

IFRS – IAS 1 “Presentation of Financial Statements” requires financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss to be presented as a separate line item on the face of the statement of financial position.

(e) Current investments – financial assets

Argentine GAAP – Certain instruments carried at fair value are included within the line item investments in the face of the statement of financial position.

IFRS – These investments are also carried at fair value but they are separately disclosed in the new line item titled “Investments in financial assets”.

(f) Advances for purchases of property, plant and equipment, inventories and investments in associates and joint ventures.

Argentine GAAP – Receivables representing money advances made for the purchase of items of property, plant and equipment, inventories and investments in associates and joint ventures are shown as part of their respective balances.

IFRS – Advances for the purchase of items of investment property, property, plant and equipment, inventories and investments in associates and joint ventures are not considered part of these balances until the respective item is received, and, thus, they are shown within “Trade and other receivables”.

(g) Software

Argentine GAAP – Under Argentina GAAP, the Group classified software into Property, plant and equipment.

IFRS – Software is not considered part of Property, plant and equipment, thus, it is shown within Intangible Assets, net”.

Presentation reclassifications affecting the income statement for the three-month period ended September 30, 2011 and for the year ended June 30, 2012

(i) Revenue – service income and service charges

Argentine GAAP – The Group structures its operating leases to allow for recovery of a significant portion of property operating, real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance, and advertising and promotion expenses from tenants. A substantial portion of the Group’s leases require the tenants to reimburse the Group for a substantial portion of operating expenses, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes and insurance. The Group’s tenants are required to pay for their proportionate share of property common operating costs. These expenses (“service charge expenses”) are incurred and paid by the Group and subsequently charged to tenants without any mark-up (“service charge income”).

Under Argentine GAAP, service charge income and service charge expense are offset and presented net in the income statement.

2.  
Basis of preparation and adoption of international financial reporting standards (“IFRS”) (Continued)

IFRS – IAS 18 states that whether an entity is acting as a principal or an agent in transactions is dependent on the facts and circumstances of the relationship. The Group has assessed the substance of the transactions and concluded that the Group is acting as a principal since it has exposure to the significant risks and rewards associated with the rendering of services.

Therefore, service charge income is presented separately from property operating expenses. Property operating expenses are expensed as incurred and any property operating expenditure not recovered from tenants through service charges or when the property is vacant are charged to the income statement. The Group’s advertising and promotional costs are expensed as incurred.

(ii) Gains and losses on disposal of investment

Argentine GAAP – As part of the Group’s strategy, the Group may dispose of investment property which are no longer considered core to the Group’s ongoing operations and for which profit can be realized from value appreciation. Gain on disposals of office buildings is classified as revenue in the statement of income.

IFRS – Based on the IFRS Conceptual Framework, gain on disposal of assets described above are not reported under “Revenues”.

Under IFRS, gains from the disposal of fixed assets are not included in revenue as the standard refers to the sale of goods including goods produced by the entity for sale or purchased for resale. Only property acquired or constructed for sale and held as inventory (“trading property”) would therefore be included in the scope, except for property held as an investment property or property, plant and equipment..

Basis of preparation and adoption of international financial reporting standards (“IFRS”) (Continued)

(iii) Other income and expenses

Argentine GAAP – Under Argentine GAAP, certain income and expense items are included as part of financial results or other non-operating income and expenses, as appropriate. These items primarily comprise fees payable related to the management contract charges for provisions (i.e. generally charges for litigation and claims), gains or losses on disposal of property, plant and equipment items, gains or losses from the sale of subsidiaries and taxes borne by the Group on behalf of shareholders, among others.

IFRS –.Under IFRS, income and expense items are generally presented according to its nature and the Group’s presentation policy. The items described above are generally presented as “Other operating income and expense” under IFRS.
 
(iv) Investment in financial assets

Argentine GAAP– Investments in entities in which the Company does not exercise significant influence or control, are accounted at cost plus dividends. The received dividends are included within Share of profit or loss of associates and joint ventures.
 
IFRS –Investments in entities which are not subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, are measured at fair value. Changes in fair values and gains from disposal equity investments at fair value through profit or loss and dividends income are recorded within “Financial results, net” in the statement of income.

Reclassifications affecting the statement of cash flows for the three-month period ended September 30, 2011 and for the year ended June 30, 2012

Pursuant to Argentine GAAP, the Company proportionally consolidated the joint ventures’ accounts. Consequently, a difference is generated between the amount of cash and cash equivalents reported in the main statement of cash flows and the amount of cash and cash equivalents that would be reported in the statement of cash flows prepared under IFRS.

On the other hand, under the Argentine GAAP in force, the effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents was shown as part of operating activities and not under a fourth category in the statement of cash flows as required by the IFRSs.
 
Additionally, pursuant to Argentine GAAP, revenue from sale of property, plant and equipment (including properties classified as investment properties under IFRS) were reported as operating activities. In accordance with IFRS revenue from sale of investment properties and property, plant and equipment is reported as investment activities.

Finally, pursuant to Argentine GAAP, acquisition of non-controlling interest was reported as investing activities, whereas, in accordance with IFRS, it must be reported as cash from financing activities.

Thus, cash flows generated by or used in operating, investing and financing activities were different in the statement of cash flow prepared under Argentine GAAP.

2.3.10.3
Measurement adjustments (Column IV)

Argentine GAAP differs in certain significant respects from IFRS. Such differences involve methods of measuring the amounts shown in the consolidated financial statements, as further described below:

(A) Foreign currency translation
 
As noted in the section titled “IFRS exemption options”, the Group has applied the one-time exemption to set the foreign currency cumulative translation adjustment (“CTA”) to zero as of July 1, 2011.

(B) Revenue recognition – “scheduled rent increases”
 
Argentine GAAP – Revenue from “non-cancelable” leases subject to scheduled rent escalation clauses is recognized when the escalated payments are due. Therefore, revenue does not include an averaging of rental income. Rent-free periods, reduced rent or other tenant incentives, if any, are recognized in the period in which these incentives are provided.
 
IFRS – The Group applied IAS 17 “Leases”. As a result, lease income from operating leases with scheduled rent increases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the leases. All tenant incentives, if any, are treated as a reduction of rental income on a straight-line basis over the lease terms.

(C) Revenue recognition – “letting fees”

Argentine GAAP – The Group does not generally use the services of a third-party lease agent for its shopping center properties. Rather, the Group acts as its own leasing agent and earns letting fees. Letting fees are recognized at the time a transaction is successfully completed. A transaction is considered successfully completed when both parties (the tenant and the Company) have signed the related lease contract.

IFRS – The Group considers that in these circumstances payments received from tenants for “letting fees” are not different from other payments received such as admission rights. Accordingly, revenue from letting fees is recognized under the straight-line method over the lease term.

(D) Trading properties

Argentine GAAP – Trading properties are stated at the lower of cost adjusted for inflation or net realizable value. Additionally, trading properties are measured at net realizable value when contracts are exchanged for which a non-refundable deposit has been received securing the sale in advance of legal completion (i.e. transfer of deed of title and significant risk and rewards). This form of sale fixes the price of the property and the terms and conditions of the contract providing reasonable certainty about the closing of the transaction and realization of the gain. Accordingly, these transactions are deemed consummated for Argentine GAAP purposes and revenue is recognized at the time the contract is signed. Gains on the revaluation of trading property to net realizable value are shown as “gain from recognition of inventories at net realizable value” in the statement of income.

2.  
Basis of preparation and adoption of international financial reporting standards (“IFRS”) (Continued)

IFRS – Trading properties are measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Revenue from the sale of properties is recognized only when the significant risks and rewards have transferred to the buyer. This will normally take place on unconditional exchange of contracts (transfer of title deed). For conditional exchanges, sales are recognized when these conditions are satisfied.

(E) Pre-operating and organization expenses

Argentine GAAP - Under Argentine GAAP, pre-operating, organization expenses and other start-up costs (mainly related to the opening of new shopping centers) are capitalized and amortized under the straight-line method generally over a period of three to five years.

IFRS – IFRS prescribes that pre-operating expenses cannot be attributed to the cost of property, plant and equipment, investing properties, trading properties or the formation of intangible assets and are immediately recognized as expenses.

(F) Goodwill

Argentine GAAP – The Group accounts for acquisitions of businesses and non-controlling interests under the purchase method of accounting. Under the purchase method of accounting, the Company allocates the purchase price to tangible and intangible assets and liabilities based on the respective fair values. Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of net identifiable assets and is amortized under the straight-line method over the weighted average useful life of the tangible assets acquired. Goodwill does not exceed its respective estimated recoverable value at year-end.

IFRS – As noted Note 2.2., the Group has applied the exemption in IFRS 1 for business combinations. Also, as noted in Note 2.2., the Group has applied the exception in IFRS 1 for acquisitions of non-controlling interests.

2.  
Basis of preparation and adoption of international financial reporting standards (“IFRS”) (Continued)

(G) Negative Goodwill

Argentine GAAP – Under Argentine GAAP, when the amount paid in a business combination or acquisition of a non-controlling interest is lower than the carrying amount of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, the Group recognizes such amount as negative goodwill on the statement of financial position (as a deduction to non-current assets) and amortizes it over the period considered to justify negative goodwill not exceeding 20 years. However, under Argentine GAAP, when negative goodwill exists, acquired intangible assets which otherwise would be recognized are reduced to absorb the negative goodwill even if they are then assigned a zero value.

Additionally, where the amount paid for the acquisition of associates and/or joint ventures is lower to the investor's interest in the net fair values of the associate and/or joint venture's identifiable assets and liabilities, the Group recognizes such amount as negative goodwill on the statement of financial position and amortizes it over the period considered to justify negative goodwill not exceeding 20 years. That amortization is recognized under the line “Share of profit / (loss) of associates and joint ventures” in the statement of income.

IFRS - As noted in Note 2.2., the Group has applied the exemption in IFRS 1 for business combinations. Also, as noted in Note 2.2., the Company has applied the exception in IFRS 1 for acquisitions of non-controlling interests. Consequently, business combinations and acquisitions of non-controlling interests completed prior to July 1, 2011 have not been restated, and the carrying amount of negative goodwill under IFRS as of July 1, 2011 equals the carrying amount under Argentine GAAP as of that date. In accordance with IFRS, negative goodwill is recognized in profit or loss immediately.

Additionally, acquisitions of associates and/or joint ventures are initially recorded at cost of the investment. Any difference between the cost of the investment and the investor's interest in the net fair values of the associate's and/ or joint venture’s identifiable assets and liabilities is goodwill. Negative goodwill is taken to the income statement in the period when the associate and/or joint venture is acquired.

(H) Non-current investments – financial assets

Argentine GAAP – The Group holds investments in quoted equity securities with readily determinable fair values, namely TGLT S.A., Hersha Hospitality Trust and Supertel. Under Argentine GAAP, these investments are carried at acquisition cost since they are not held for the purpose of trading in the short term.

IFRS – Under IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments”, all equity investments are measured at fair value. For certain equity investments, the Group can make an irrevocable election at initial recognition to recognize changes in fair value through other comprehensive income rather than profit or loss. However, the Company has decided to not recognize changes in fair value through other comprehensive income. The Group has elected to recognize changes in the fair value of these equity securities in the statement of income.

(I) Initial direct costs on operating leases

Argentine GAAP – Under Argentine GAAP, certain initial direct costs (i.e. legal, commissions and other fees) paid to third parties for arranging a lease (when the Group is a lessor) are recognized as an immediate expense when incurred.

IFRS – Initial direct costs incurred by lessors in arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased assets (i.e. investment properties) and are recognized as an expense over the lease term on the same basis as the lease income.

(J) Tenant deposits

Argentine GAAP - The Group obtains deposits from tenants as a guarantee for returning the property at the end of the lease term in a specified good condition or for the lease payments for a period of generally 3 years. The deposits generally range from one to three months of lease rentals. These deposits are treated as liabilities under Argentine GAAP and measured at the amount received by the tenants.

IFRS - Tenant deposits are treated as a financial liability in accordance with IFRS 9, and they are initially recognized at fair value. The difference between fair value and cash received is considered to be part of the minimum lease payments received for the operating lease (deferred income). The deposits are subsequently measured at amortized cost, and deferred income is amortized under the straight line method over the lease term.

(K) Impairment of financial assets

Argentine GAAP - At July 1, 2011, September 30, 2011 and June 30, 2012, the Group maintains receivables relating to credit card loans. Which receivables are carried at amortized cost. Under Argentine GAAP, the Group determined a provision for doubtful accounts based on specific criteria set forth for financial and banking institutions.

IFRS - The Group applied the criteria for impairment provisions in IFRS 9.

(L) Present value accounting – tax credits

Argentine GAAP – Under Argentine GAAP, certain long-term tax credits are present-valued as of year-end.

IFRS – Under IFRS, there is no requirement to discount long-term tax credits. The Group elects to measure tax receivables and payables at the amounts expected to be recovered from or paid to the tax authorities and thus, not discounting long-term tax credits.

(M) Investment properties

Argentine GAAP – There are not specific requirements for presentation of investment property. Accordingly, the Company includes it as part of property, plant and equipment and non-current and are measured at acquisition cost less accumulated amortization and loss for impairments, if any. Additionally, trading properties are measured at net realizable value when contracts are exchanged for which a non-refundable deposit has been received securing the sale in advance of legal completion (i.e. transfer of title deed and significant risk and rewards). This form of sale fixes the price of the property and the terms and conditions of the contract providing reasonable certainty about the closing of the transaction and realization of the gain. Accordingly, these transactions are deemed consummated for Argentine GAAP purposes and revenue is recognized at the time the contract is signed. Gains on the revaluation of trading property to net realizable value is shown as “Gain from recognition of inventories at net realizable value” in the statement of income.

IFRS –Trading properties are measured at cost, less accumulated depreciation and loss for impairments, if any. Revenue from the sale of properties is recognized only when the significant risks and rewards have transferred to the buyer. This will normally take place with the transfer of title deed and significant risk and rewards. For conditional exchanges, sales are recognized when these conditions are satisfied.

(N) Impact of adjustments in accordance with IFRS in investments in associates

Argentine GAAP - Investments in entities in which the Company exercises significant influence, but not control, are accounted for under the equity method. Under the equity method, the investment is recorded at original cost and periodically increased (decreased) by the investor's proportionate share of earnings (losses) of the investee and decreased by all dividends received from the investor by the investee. The Group applies its percentage ownership interest to the financial statements of its equity method investments prepared under Argentine GAAP.

As at June 30, 2012, the associates of the Company are Banco Hipotecario S.A., Banco de Crédito & Securitización S.A., Manibil S.A., New Lipstick LLC, Lipstick Management LLC, Rigby 183 LLC, Tarshop S.A. and Bitania 26 S.A.

IFRS - The Company assessed all of its interests in the entities mentioned in the paragraph above and determined that the Company exercises significant influence over them. Accordingly, under IFRS, the Company also accounts for these investments under the equity method of accounting. However, the Company has assessed the impact of IFRS adjustments on the financial statements of these investments prepared under Argentine GAAP prior to the application of the equity method.

Following is a description of the most significant IFRS adjustments to the equity and comprehensive income of its associates. For ease of presentation and to facilitate an understanding of the nature of the IFRS adjustments, associates were grouped by business activities. Associates are not discussed below when IFRS adjustments were not significant to the Group or no IFRS adjustments were identified:
 
Banking business:

The Group assessed the financial statements of associates of the Group related to the banking business as of July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012 and determined the following adjustments to IFRS:

- Under Argentine GAAP, revenues from life and disability insurance and loan origination fees are recognized on an up-front basis. Under IFRS, these revenues are recognized on a straight line basis over the term of the respective underlying receivables.

2.  
Basis of preparation and adoption of international financial reporting standards (“IFRS”) (Continued)

- Under Argentine GAAP, the provision for doubtful accounts for loan losses are recognized based on specific criteria as set forth by the Central Bank for financial and banking institutions. Under IFRS, the associate applied the impairment provisions in IFRS 9.

- Under Argentine GAAP, receivables transferred to trusts in securitization programs are treated as sales and a gain or loss is recognized on the sale. Usually the transferor retains an interest in the trust and maintains a cash reserve which serves as collateral for payments of amounts due under the debt securities issued by the trust. Under IFRS, following the provisions of IFRS 9, the associate is not able to derecognize financial assets with these characteristics. As a result, the associate continues recognizing the receivables and a liability for the consideration received upon transfer. The receivables recognized are then tested for impairment following the IFRS 9 criteria.

- Under Argentine GAAP, the calculation of the insurance technical reserves is recognized following the regulations issued by the National Insurance Superintendence. Under IFRS, following the guidance of IFRS 4 “insurance contracts”, the associate measured the insurance technical reserve in accordance with the “best estimation” approach.

Investment properties

The Company assessed the financial statements of the associates related to the investment property business and determined the following adjustments to IFRS as of July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012:

- Under Argentine GAAP, revenue from non-cancelable leases subject to scheduled rent escalation clauses is recognized when the escalated payments are due. Therefore, revenue does not include an averaging of rental income. Rent-free periods, reduced rent or other tenant incentives, if any, are recognized in the period in which these incentives are provided. Under IFRS, lease income from operating leases with scheduled rent increases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the leases. All tenant incentives, if any, are treated as a reduction of rental income on a straight-line basis over the lease terms.

- Under Argentine GAAP, lease expense where the entity is the lessee under an operating ground lease agreement subject to escalation clauses is recognized when the escalated payments are due. Therefore, lease expense not recognized on a straight-line basis.

- Under IFRS, lease payments for operating leases with scheduled rent increases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the leases.

(O) Impact of IFRS adjustment on joint ventures

Argentine GAAP - Investments in entities in which the Group exercises joint control are accounted for under the proportionate consolidation method. Under the proportionate consolidation method, the financial statements of the Company reflect the Company’s pro-rata equity interest in the jointly controlled entities on a line-by-line basis. The Group applied its pro-rata equity interest to the financial statements of its jointly-controlled entities prepared under Argentine GAAP.

IFRS – The Group assessed all of its interests in joint arrangements and determined that they are joint ventures under IFRS 11. Accordingly, the Group accounted for its joint ventures under the equity method of accounting. The Group has assessed the impact of IFRS adjustments on the financial statements of joint ventures prepared under Argentine GAAP prior to the application of the equity method.

As at June 30, 2012, the joint ventures of the Group are Cyrsa S.A., Canteras Natal Crespo S.A., Puerto Retiro S.A., Baicom Networks S.A., Quality Invest S.A. and Nuevo Puerto Santa Fe S.A.

Following is a description of the most significant IFRS adjustments to the net equity and income of the joint ventures. Joint ventures are not discussed below when IFRS adjustments were not significant to the Group or no adjustments were identified:

-Under Argentine GAAP, the joint venture has historically accounted for revenues and therefore profits from all property sales on a percentage of completion basis once contracts for the sale of a property have been exchanged and only if the eventual profit from that property can be foreseen with reasonable certainty. Under IFRS, the joint venture has applied IFRIC 15 “Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate”. The Group assessed the contractual terms of the agreements and concluded that revenue from open market sales of real estate should be accounted for on legal completion of the agreement in accordance with IAS 18 “Revenue”. As a result, the joint venture recognizes revenue from the sale of private homes and commercial units entirely at the point of legal completion in accordance with IAS 18. The most significant impact of IFRIC 15 is therefore the deferral of profits previously recognized from the point of exchange of contracts onwards until the point of legal completion. All of these profits are now recognized at a later date.

2.  
Basis of preparation and adoption of international financial reporting standards (“IFRS”) (Continued)

- Under Argentine GAAP, tenant deposits are treated as liabilities and measured at the amount received by the tenants. Under IFRS, tenant deposits are treated as both a financial asset and a financial liability in accordance with IFRS 9, and they are initially recognized at fair value. The difference between fair value and cash received is considered to be part of the minimum lease payments received for the operating lease. The deposits are subsequently measured at amortized cost.

- Under Argentine GAAP, revenue from non-cancelable leases subject to scheduled rent escalation clauses is recognized when the escalated payments are due. Under IFRS, the Company applied IAS 17 “Leases”. Consequently, revenue derived from operating leases with scheduled increases in recognized on a straight line basis over the lease agreement term.

- Under Argentine GAAP, certain long-term tax credits are present-valued as of year-end. Under IFRS, there is no requirement to discount long-term tax credits. The joint venture elects to measure tax receivables and payables at the amounts expected to be recovered from or paid to the tax authorities and thus, not discounting long-term tax credits. As a result, the joint venture eliminated the effect of discounting tax.

(P) Acquisition of non-controlling interest

As stated in Note 2.2., the Group has applied the exception provided by IFRS 1 for accounting for changes in the interest in subsidiaries that do not result in loss of control. Consequently, acquisitions of non-controlling interests that took place before July 1, 2011 have not been restated.

IFRS adjustments detailed below relate to acquisitions of non-controlling interest that took place on July 1, 2011 or after date.

Argentine GAAP - Under Argentine GAAP, the Group accounted for the acquisition of the non-controlling interests under the purchase method of accounting. Under the purchase method of accounting, the purchase price paid is allocated to the net assets acquired based on its fair value. Assets, including goodwill, and liabilities of the acquired business are recognized using a cost accumulation approach (i.e. for the previous equity interests acquired). These acquisitions generated goodwill since the cost of acquisition exceeded the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired.

IFRS – Under IFRS, the Group applied the principles of IFRS 10 in accounting for changes in ownership interests. As per IFRS 10, when an additional interest is obtained and control is maintained, the transaction is accounted for as an equity transaction. The Group does not recognize any additional acquisition adjustments to reflect the subsequent acquisition of additional interest in the subsidiary if there is no change in control.

2.  
Basis of preparation and adoption of international financial reporting standards (“IFRS”) (Continued)

Under IFRS, the difference between the fair value of the consideration paid and the related carrying value of the non-controlling interest acquired is recognized in the controlling interest’s equity as a credit or debit to a reserve in net equity. Therefore, no gain or loss is recognized in the statement of income and no additional goodwill is recognized. The carrying value of the non-controlling interest is adjusted to reflect the change in the non-controlling interest’s ownership interest in the subsidiary.

(Q) Amortization of borrowing costs

Argentine GAAP - Under Argentine GAAP, transactions costs directly attributable to the acquisition of borrowings are amortized under the straight-line method over the contract term.

IFRS – Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of borrowings are deducted from the fair value at which the financial liability is initially recognized. Subsequently, they are amortized using the effective interest method over the contract term.

 (R) Foreign currency translation

Argentine GAAP - Foreign operations shall be classified as integrated or non-integrated entities depending if their activities are carried out as an extension of the reporting entity. Exchange differences resulting from the translation of integrated entities are recognized in the statement of income under the line item “Financial results, net”. Exchange differences resulting from the translation of non-integrated entities are recognized in a separate reserve in equity.

IFRS – Exchange differences resulting from the translation of foreign operations of subsidiaries and associates are recognized in the statement of other comprehensive income.

(S) Deferred income taxes

Argentine GAAP - The Group accounts for income taxes using the deferred tax method whereby deferred tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax based assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates. Argentine GAAP does not prescribe detailed specific guidance related to the recognition of a valuation allowance. The Group assesses the need for a valuation allowance based on several factors including but not limited to current projections, legal expiration periods and others.

IFRS – There is no difference in the determination of deferred income taxes. However, deferred tax assets are recognized when it is considered probable (defined as “more likely than not”) that sufficient taxable profits will be available to utilize the temporary difference or unused tax losses. IFRS does not allow the recognition of valuation allowances.

2.  
Basis of preparation and adoption of international financial reporting standards (“IFRS”) (Continued)

IFRS establishes more specific and strict procedures to assess whether a deferred tax asset should be recognized. All available evidence, both positive and negative, is considered to determine whether, based on the weight of that evidence, a deferred tax asset should be recognized. Judgment must be used in considering the relative impact of negative and positive evidence. The weight given to the potential effect of negative and positive evidence should be commensurate with the extent to which it can be objectively verified. The more negative evidence that exists (a) the more positive evidence is necessary and (b) the more difficult it is to support a conclusion that a deferred tax asset can be recognized.

(T) Non-controlling interest
 
Differences for non-controlling interest include the effect of recording, where applicable, the corresponding effect of other differences between Argentine GAAP and IFRS.
 
2.4. 
Significant Accounting Policies

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements are consistent with those applied in the preparation of the information under IFRSs as of June 30, 2012, which is described in Exhibit I attached hereto and are based upon such IFRSs expected to be in force as of June 30, 2013. The most significant accounting policies are described in Exhibit I.
 
2.5.  
Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements at a certain date requires the Management to make estimations and evaluations affecting the amount of assets and liabilities recorded and contingent assets and liabilities disclosed at such date, as well as income and expenses recorded during the period. Actual future results might differ from the estimates and evaluations made at the date of preparation of these financial statements.

In the preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the significant judgments made by Management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the main sources of uncertainty were the same applied by the Group in the preparation of the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2012 which are described in Exhibit I.

2.6
Seasonal effects on operations

The operations of the Group’s shopping centers are also subject to seasonal effects, which affects the level of sales recorded by lessees.  During summer time (January and February), the lessees of shopping centers experience the lowest sales levels in comparison with the winter holidays (July) and December (Christmas) when they tend to record peaks of sales.  Apparel stores generally change their collections during the spring and the fall, which impacts positively on shopping mall sales. Sale discounts at the end of each season also affect the business. As a consequence, a higher level of revenues is generally expected in the second half of the year rather than the first in shopping center operations.
 
3.  
Acquisitions and disposals

Transactions with non-controlling interest

APSA

As of August, 2012, the Group, through E-Commerce Latina S.A., acquired an additional equity interest of 0.038% in APSA for a total consideration of US$ 0.124 million. The book value of the non-controlling interest in APSA as of the date of the acquisition was Ps. 36 million (which represents an interest of 4.43%).  As a result of this transaction, the non-controlling interest was reduced by Ps. 1 million and the interest attributable to the shareholders’ of the controlling parents was reduced by Ps. 1 million. The effect on shareholders’ equity of this change in the equity interest in APSA is summarized as follows:

   
Ps.
 
Carrying value of the equity interests acquired by the Group
    924  
Price paid for the non-controlling interest
    (590 )
Reserve created due to the acquisition recognized in the parent’s equity
    334  

Disposal of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

In September 2012 the Group sold 2,000,000 ordinary shares of Hersha for a total amount of US$ 9.7 million. Accordingly, the Group’s interest in Hersha decreased from 9.13% to 8.12% at September 30, 2012.

Current and deferred income tax

The details of the provision for the Group’s income tax, were as follows:

   
September 30, 2012
   
September 30, 2011
 
Current income tax
    65,708       145,831  
Deferred income tax
    (30,083 )     (125,164 )
Income tax expense
    35,625       20,677  

The gross movement on the deferred income tax account was as follows:

   
September 30, 2012
   
June 30, 2012
 
Beginning of the period / year                                                                                  
    (376,977 )     (467,129 )
Income tax expense                                                                                  
    30,083       90,152  
End of the period / year                                                                                  
    (346,894 )     (376,977 )

The Group did not recognize deferred income tax assets of Ps. 49 million and Ps. 48.9 million as of September 30, 2012 and June 30, 2012, respectively. Although management believes that it will become profitable in the foreseeable future, as a result of the history of recent losses incurred during the development phase of the different Group’s business operations and the lack of verifiable and objective evidence due to the limited operating history of the Group itself, the Board of Directors has determined that there is sufficient uncertainty as to the generation of sufficient income to utilize the losses within a reasonable timeframe, therefore, no deferred tax asset is recognized in relation to these losses.

These Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements should be read together with the following Exhibit I. This Exhibit includes a breakdown of additional information required by IFRS as of June 30 2012 and July 1, 2011, which is necessary for a proper understanding of these Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements and so that they may be presented in a condensed form in conformity with IAS 34.

1.
Summary of significant accounting policies

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these unaudited consolidated financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.


1.1  
Basis of preparation

(a)  
 Current and non-current classification

The Group presents current and non-current assets, and current and non-current liabilities, as separate classifications in its statements of financial position according to the operating cycle of each activity.

The operating cycle for activities related to the Group’s investment property and hotels is 12 months. Therefore, current assets and current liabilities include the assets and liabilities that are either realized or settled within 12 months from the end of the fiscal year. The operating cycle of activities related to the Group’s investment properties for sale depends on each specific project, and thus cannot be clearly defined. In general, assets and liabilities classified as investment properties for sale are realized or discharged over many fiscal years, ranging between two and three years or, in exceptional cases, over a longer period. As a result, and for purposes of classification, the Group has assumed the operating cycle of investment property for sale to be 12 months.

All other assets and liabilities are classified as non-current. Current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are presented separately from each other and from other assets and liabilities as non-current.

(b)  
Presentation currency

The Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in thousands of Argentine Pesos. Unless otherwise stated or the context otherwise requires, references to ‘Peso amounts’ or ‘Ps.’, are to Argentine Pesos, references to ‘US$’ or ‘US dollars’ are to United States dollars.

(c)  
 Fiscal year-end

The fiscal year begins on July 1 and ends on June 30 of the following year. The financial results are presented on a fiscal year basis.

1.  
Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

(d)  
Accounting conventions

The Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by financial assets and financial liabilities (including derivative instruments) at fair value through profit or loss.

(e)  
Reporting cash flows

The Group reports cash flows from operating activities using the indirect method. Interest paid is presented within financing cash flows. Interest received is presented within investing activities. The acquisitions and disposals of investment properties are disclosed as cash flows from investing activities because this most appropriately reflects the Group’s business activities. Cash flows in respect to trading properties are disclosed as cash flows from operating activities because these items are routinely sold in the ordinary course of business.

(f)  
Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements at a certain date requires the Management to make estimations and evaluations affecting the amount of assets and liabilities recorded and contingent assets and liabilities disclosed at such date, as well as income and expenses recorded during the period. Actual results might differ from the estimates and evaluations made at the date of preparation of these financial statements. The most significant judgments made by Management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the major sources of uncertainty are described in Note 4.

1.2  
New accounting standards

The following standards, amendments and interpretations have been issued by the IASB and IFRIC, although they are not effective they have been adopted early by the Group in these consolidated financial statements:


IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments”

In November 2009, the IASB issued IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments”. The standard incorporates the first part of a three-phase project to replace IAS 39 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement”. IFRS 9 prescribes the classification and measurement of financial assets.  IFRS 9 requires that financial assets are subsequently measured either ‘at amortized cost’ or ‘at fair value’, depending on whether certain conditions are met. In addition, IFRS 9 permits an entity to designate an instrument, that would otherwise have been classified in the ‘at amortized cost’ category, to be ‘at fair value’ if that designation eliminates or significantly reduces measurement or recognition inconsistencies.

1.  
Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

The prescribed category for equity instruments is at fair value through profit or loss, however, an entity may irrevocably opt for presenting all fair value changes of equity instruments not held for trading in other comprehensive income. Only dividends received from these investments are reported in profit or loss.

In October 2010, the IASB issued further additions to IFRS 9. These bring forth the guidance for derecognizing financial instruments and most of the requirements for the classification and measurement of financial liabilities currently included within IAS 39. The additions include amortized cost accounting for most financial liabilities, with bifurcation of embedded derivatives. The main change is that in cases where the fair value option is taken for financial liabilities, the part of a fair value change due to an entity's own credit risk is recorded in other comprehensive income rather than the statements of income, unless this creates an accounting mismatch. The remaining phases of the project, dealing with impairment of financial instruments and hedge accounting, have not yet been finalized.

IFRS 9, as well as its additions, shall be applied retrospectively for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2015. Earlier adoption is permitted. The Group has adopted IFRS 9 from July 1, 2011, as well as the related consequential amendments to other IFRSs, because this new accounting policy provides reliable and more relevant information for users to assess the amounts, timing and uncertainty of future cash flows. The Group has presented all comparative figures in accordance with IFRS 9. The Group’s management has assessed the financial assets and liabilities held by the Group at the date of transition (July 1, 2011).

IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements”

On May 12, 2011 the IASB issued IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements” which establishes principles for the presentation and preparation of consolidated financial statements when an entity controls one or more other entities. IFRS 10 replaces the consolidation requirements in SIC-12 “Consolidation - Special Purpose Entities” and IAS 27 “Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements” and builds on existing principles by identifying the concept of control as the determining factor in whether an entity should be included within the consolidated financial statements of the parent company. The standard provides additional guidance to assist in the determination of control where this is difficult to assess.

 IFRS 10 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Earlier application is permitted. The Group has adopted the standard from July 1, 2011.

Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

IFRS 11 “Joint Arrangements”

On May 12, 2011 the IASB issued IFRS 11 “Joint Arrangements” which provides for a more realistic reflection of joint arrangements by focusing on the rights and obligations of the arrangement, rather than its legal form (as is currently the case). The standard addresses inconsistencies in the reporting of joint arrangements by requiring a single method to account for interests in jointly controlled entities. IFRS 11 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Earlier application is permitted. The Group has adopted the standard from July 1, 2011.

IFRS 12 “Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities”

On May 12, 2011 the IASB issued IFRS 12 “Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities”. IFRS 12 is a new and comprehensive standard on disclosure requirements for all forms of interests in other entities, including subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and unconsolidated structured entities. IFRS 12 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Earlier application is permitted. The Group has adopted the standard from July 1, 2011.

IAS 27 (revised) “Separate financial statements”

On May 12, 2011, the IASB issued IAS 27 (revised). The revised standard includes the provisions on separate financial statements that are left after the control provisions of IAS 27 have been included in the new IFRS 10. The revisions are applicable for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Earlier application is permitted. The Group has adopted the standard from July 1, 2011.

IAS 28 (revised) “Associates and joint ventures”

On May 12, 2011, the IASB issued IAS 28 (revised). The revised standard includes the requirements for joint ventures, as well as associates, to be equity accounted following the issue of IFRS 11. The revisions are applicable for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Earlier application is permitted. The Group has adopted the standard from July 1, 2011.

Changes in IFRS 1: First-time adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards’

On May 17, 2012, the IASB issued an amendment to IFRS 1 "First-time adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards" as part of its 2009-2011 cycle of annual improvements. The amendment clarifies that the entity may choose to adopt IAS 23 “Borrowing Costs” whether as from the date of transition or an earlier date. As from the date the entity adopts IAS 23, interest costs pursuant to the Argentine GAAP are not reclassified. The revisions are applicable for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Earlier application is permitted. The Group has adopted the standard from July 1, 2011.

1.3.  
Scope of consolidation

(a) Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases.

The Group uses the acquisition method of accounting to account for business combinations. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair value of the assets transferred, the liabilities incurred and the equity interests issued by the Group. The consideration transferred includes the fair value of any asset or liability resulting from a contingent consideration arrangement. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date.

IFRS 3 “Business combination” allows up to 12 months to finalize the accounting for a business combination. Where the accounting for a business combination is not complete by the end of the reporting period in which the business combination occurred, the Group reports provisional amounts.

The Group recognizes any non-controlling interest in the acquiree on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquiree’s net assets.

The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and the acquisition-date fair value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the total of consideration transferred, non-controlling interest recognized and previously held interest measured is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired in the case of a bargain purchase, the difference is recognized directly in the statements of income as “Gain on bargain purchases”.

Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealized gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated. Unrealized gains and/ or losses are also eliminated. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group. The majority of subsidiaries have the same year-end as the Group’s, however, a small number of subsidiaries have different year-ends. In these circumstances, special-purpose financial statements prepared as of June 30 of each year are used for purposes of the Group consolidation.

 (*) Substantially all holding companies do not have significant assets and liabilities other than their respective interest holdings in operating entities.

(1) The Group has consolidated the investment in Llao Llao Resorts S.A. considering their percentage of ownership interest held together with the Company's participation in making decisions as agreed in the shareholders’ agreement.

Ownership interest is shown considering ultimate percentage held by the Company. Subsidiaries are either controlled directly by the Company (i.e. APSA), or indirectly by controlling the direct subsidiary, which in turn controls a first-tier subsidiary (i.e. Panamerican Mall S.A. through APSA), or lower-tier subsidiaries (i.e. REIG over which Tyrus S.A. has a 64 % direct controlling interest).

1.  
Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

The total non-controlling interest for the years ended June 30, 2012 are Ps. 390,428. The following non-controlling interests are considered material to the Group:

Subsidiary
 
Equity attributable to NCI
APSA
 
40.9
Panamerican Mall S.A. 
 
122.9

The non-controlling interests for the remaining subsidiaries with non-controlling interests aggregate Ps. 226.6 million. None of these subsidiaries have non-controlling interests which are individually considered material to the Group taking into account the substance and nature of their activities (i.e. vehicles for investments in financial instruments).
 
 
Summarized financial information on subsidiaries with material non-controlling interests and other information are included in Note 6.

(b)  
Changes in ownership interests in subsidiaries without change of control

Transactions with non-controlling interests that do not result in loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions – that is, as transactions with the owners in their capacity as owners. The difference between the fair value of any consideration paid and the relevant share acquired of the carrying value of net assets of the subsidiary is recorded in equity. Gain or loss on disposals of non-controlling interests are also recorded in equity.

(c)  
Disposal of subsidiaries

When the Group ceases to have control any retained interest in the entity is re-measured at its fair value at the date when control is lost, with changes in carrying amount recognized in profit or loss. The fair value is the initial carrying amount for the purposes of subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.

(d)  
Associates

Associates are all entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control, representing an interest between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, the investment is initially recognized at cost, and the carrying amount is increased or decreased to recognize the investor’s share of the profit or loss of the investee after the date of acquisition.

1.  
Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

The Group’s investment in associates includes goodwill identified on acquisition.

If the ownership interest in an associate is reduced but significant influence is retained, only a proportionate share of the amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss where appropriate.

The Group’s share of post-acquisition profit or loss is recognized in the statement of income, and its share of post- acquisition movements in other comprehensive income is recognized in other comprehensive income with a corresponding adjustment to the carrying amount of the investment. When the Group’s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any other unsecured receivable, the Group recognizes such losses until the carrying amount of the associate reduces to zero, unless it has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.

The Group determines at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that the investment in the associate is impaired. If this is the case, the Group calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the associate and its carrying value and recognizes the amount adjacent to ‘share of profit / (loss) of an associate’ in the statement of income.

Profits and losses resulting from upstream and downstream transactions between the Group and its associate are recognized in the Group’s financial statements only to the extent of unrelated investor’s interests in the associates. Unrealized losses are eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of associates have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

Summarized financial information and other information for significant associates are included in Note 8.

(e)  
Joint arrangements

Joint arrangements are arrangements of which the Group and other party or parties have joint control bound by a contractual arrangement. Under IFRS 11, investments in joint arrangements are classified as either joint operations or joint ventures depending on the contractual rights and obligations each investor has rather than the legal structure of the joint arrangement. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement. A joint operation is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities, relating to the arrangement.

The Group has assessed the nature of its joint arrangements and determined them to be joint ventures.

1.  
Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

Under the equity method of accounting, interests in joint ventures are initially recognized in the consolidated statements of financial position at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Group’s share of the post-acquisition of profits or losses and movements in other comprehensive income in the income statements and in other comprehensive income respectively. When the Group’s share of losses in a joint venture equals or exceeds its interests in the joint ventures (which includes any long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Group’s net investment in the joint ventures), the Group does not recognize further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the joint ventures.

The Group determines at each reporting date whether there is any objective evidence that the investment in the joint ventures is impaired. If this is the case, the Group calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the joint venture and its carrying value and recognizes the amount adjacent to ‘share of profit / (loss) of an associate and joint venture’ in the statement of income.

Unrealized gains on transactions between the Group and its joint ventures are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the joint ventures. Unrealized losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of the joint ventures have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.

Summarized financial information and other information for significant joint ventures are included in Note 7.

1.4.  
Segment reporting

Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”). The CODM, is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments. The operating segments are included in Note 5.

1.5.  
Foreign currency translation

 (a) Functional and presentation currency

Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (‘the functional currency’). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Argentine Pesos, which is the Group’s presentation currency.

(b)
Transactions and balances in foreign currency

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognized in the profit or loss for the year.

Foreign exchange gains and losses are presented net in the statements of income within finance costs and finance income, as appropriate, unless they are capitalized as explained in Note 1.20.

(c) Group companies

The results and financial position of all the group entities (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:

(i)  
Assets and liabilities for each statements of financial position presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of that financial position;
(ii)  
Income and expenses for each statements of comprehensive income are translated at average exchange rates (unless this average is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rates prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the rate on the dates of the transactions); and
(iii)  
All resulting exchange differences are recognized in the statements of comprehensive income.

On the disposal of a foreign operation (that is, a disposal of the Group’s entire interest in a foreign operation, or a disposal involving loss of control over a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation) all of the exchange differences accumulated in equity in respect of that operation attributable to the equity holders of the company are reclassified to profit or loss.

In the case of a partial disposal that does not result in the Group losing control over a subsidiary that includes a foreign operation, the proportionate share of accumulated exchange differences are re-attributed to non-controlling interests and are not recognized in profit or loss.

Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing rate. Exchange differences arising are recognized in other comprehensive income.

1.6 
Investment properties

Investment properties are those properties owned by the Group that are held either to earn long-term rental income or for capital appreciation, or both, and that is not occupied by the companies in the consolidated Group. Properties occupied by associates or joint ventures are accounted for as investment properties in the consolidated financial statements. Investment property also includes property that is being constructed or developed for future use as investment property. The Group also classifies land whose future use has not been determined yet as investment properties.

Where a property is being partially occupied by the Group, with the rest being held for rental income or capital appreciation, the Group accounts for the portions separately. The portion that is occupied by the Group is accounted for as property, plant and equipment under IAS 16 “Property, Plant and Equipment” and the portion that is held for rental income or capital appreciation, or both, is treated as investment properties under IAS 40 “Investment Properties”.

The Group’s investment properties primarily comprise the Group’s portfolio of shopping centers and offices, farmland leased out to third parties, certain property under development and undeveloped land.

Investment properties are measured initially at cost. Cost comprises the purchase price and directly attributable expenditures, such as legal fees, certain direct taxes, commissions and in the case of properties under construction, the capitalization of financial costs.

Where the Group makes payments to third-party agents for services in connection with negotiating lease contracts with the Group’s lessees, these letting fees are capitalized within the carrying amount of the related investment property and amortized over the lease term.

Borrowing costs associated with properties under development or undergoing major refurbishment are capitalized. The finance cost capitalized is calculated using the Group’s weighted average cost of borrowings after adjusting for borrowings associated with specific developments. Where borrowings are associated with specific developments, the amount capitalized is the gross interest incurred on those borrowings less any investment income arising on their temporary investment. Finance cost is capitalized as from the commencement of the development work until the date of practical completion. The capitalization of finance costs is suspended if there are prolonged periods when development activity is interrupted. Finance cost is also capitalized on the purchase cost of land or property acquired specifically for redevelopment in the short term but only where activities necessary to prepare the asset for redevelopment are in progress.

1.  
Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

The Group has adopted the cost model for all of its investment properties. Therefore, at the date of each statements of financial position, investment properties are carried at amortized cost, less impairment losses, if any. Under the cost model, an investment property is impaired if its carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. Where individual components of an item of investment property have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items, which are depreciated separately.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. These costs may include the cost of improving or replacing parts that are eligible for capitalization. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. Repairs and maintenance are charged as incurred in the statement of income.

If an investment property becomes occupied by the Group, it is reclassified as property, plant and equipment at the commencement of such occupation. An item of property occupied by the Group is reclassified to investment property when its use has changed and occupation by the Company ceases. Where an investment property undergoes a change in use, evidenced by commencement of development with a view to sale, the property is transferred to trading properties.

Transfers in and out of the respective categories as described above do not change the carrying amount of the properties transferred, and they do not change the cost of the properties for measurement or disclosure purposes.

Land and property under constructions are not depreciated. Depreciation of the remaining investment properties is calculated, based on a component approach, using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of each component, as follows:

Shopping centers portfolio                                               
Between 16 and 31 years
Office buildings portfolio                                               
Between 12 and 30 years
Other rental properties portfolio
Between 17 and 55 years

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each statements of financial position date.

An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount (See Note 1.10).

1.  
Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

Asset transfers, whether assets classified under investments properties are reclassified under other items or vice-versa, may only be carried out where there is a change of use evidenced by: a) commencement of occupation of real property by the owner, where investment property is transferred to property, plant and equipment; b) commencement of development activities for sale purposes, where investment property is transferred to property for sale; c) the end of owner occupation, where it is transferred from property, plant and equipment to investment property; or d) commencement of an operating lease transactions with a third party, where property for sale is transferred to investment property.

The Group may sell its investment property when it considers that such property no longer forms part of the lease business. Investment properties are derecognized when they are disposed of or when they are permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected to arise from their disposals. Gains or losses on disposals or retirements of investment properties are determined by comparing the net disposal proceeds and their carrying amounts at the date of disposal. The gains or losses are recognized in the statements of income and disclosed separately under the line item “Gain from disposal of investment property”.

Proceeds from the sale of such property are accounted for when the material risks and benefits have been transferred to the purchaser. As for unconditional agreements, proceeds are accounted for generally when title to property passes to the buyer and the buyer intends to make the respective payment therefor. In the case of conditional agreements, the sale is accounted for where such conditions have been met. Where consideration receivable for the sale of the properties is deferred, it is discounted to present. The difference between the discounted amount and the amount receivable is treated as interest income and recognized over the period using the effective interest method.

1.7.  
Property, plant and equipment

This category primarily comprises, buildings or portions of a building used for administrative purposes, machines, computers, and other equipment, motor vehicles, furniture, fixtures and fittings and improvements to the Group’s corporate offices.

The Group has also several hotel properties. Based on the respective contractual arrangements with hotel managers, the Group considers it retains significant exposure to the variations in the cash flows of the hotel operations, and accordingly, hotels are treated as owner-occupied properties and classified under property, plant and equipment.

1.  
Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

All property, plant and equipment (“PPE”) are stated at historical cost less depreciation and accumulated impairment, if any. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. Cost of an item of PPE includes the direct costs attributable to the purchase price.

Borrowing costs incurred for the purpose of acquiring, constructing or producing a qualifying PPE are capitalized as part of its cost. A qualifying PPE is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use. Financial costs are capitalized during the period of construction or production of the eligible asset; such capitalization ceases once the necessary activities for the asset to have the intended use have been completed, or else capitalization is suspended while construction activity is suspended.

Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. Such costs may include the cost of improvements and replacement of parts as they meet the conditions to be capitalized. The carrying amount of those parts that are replaced is derecognized. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statements during the financial period in which they are incurred.

Depreciation, based on a component approach, is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate the cost over the assets’ estimated useful lives, as follows:


Hotels and facilities                                                                    
between 14 and 24 years
Other buildings and facilities                                                                    
between 20 and 50 years
Furniture and fixtures                                                                    
between 3 and 10 years
Machinery and equipment                                                                    
10 years
Vehicles                                                                    
5 years
Others                                                                    
3 years

The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at least at each financial year-end.

An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if its carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.

Gains from the sale of these assets are recognized when the significant risks and rewards have transferred to the buyer. This will normally take place on unconditional exchange, generally when legal title passes to the buyer and it is probable that the buyer will pay. For conditional exchanges, sales are recognized when these conditions are satisfied.

1.  
Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds net of direct expenses related to such sales, with the carrying amount as of the date of each transaction. Gains and losses from the disposal of property, plant and equipment items are recognized within “Other operating income, net” in the income statement.

1.8.  
Leases

Leases are classified at their inception as either operating or finance leases based on the economic substance of the agreement.

A Group company is the lessor:

Operating lease – properties leased out to tenants under operating leases are included in “Investment property” in the statements of financial position. See Note 2.27 for the recognition of rental income. The Group does not have any assets leased out under finance leases.

A Group company is the lessee:

Finance lease – leases of assets (specially computer equipment) where the Group has substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalized at the commencement of the lease at the lower of the fair value of the property and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Capitalized lease assets are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the assets and the lease term. The finance charges are charged over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. Liabilities corresponding to finance leases, measured at discounted value, are included in current and non-current borrowings.

Intangible assets

(a)
Goodwill

Goodwill represents future economic benefits arising from assets that are not capable of being individually identified and separately recognized by the Group on an acquisition. Goodwill is initially measured as the difference between the fair value of the consideration transferred, plus the amount of non-controlling interest in the acquiree and, in business combinations achieved in stages, the acquisition-date fair value of the previously held equity interest in the acquiree; and the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities assumed on the acquisition date.

At acquisition goodwill is allocated to those cash generating units expected to benefit from the acquisition for the purpose of impairment testing (see Note 1.10). Following initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill arising on the acquisition of subsidiaries is included within “Intangible assets, net” in the statements of financial position.

Goodwill may also arise upon investments in associates and joint ventures, being the surplus of the cost of investment over the Group’s share of the fair value of the net identifiable assets. Such goodwill is recorded within investments in associates or joint ventures.

Goodwill arising on the acquisition of foreign entities is treated as an asset of the foreign entity denominated in the local currency and translated at the closing rate.

Goodwill is not amortized but tested for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if there is an indication of impairment.

(b
Computer software

Acquired computer software licenses are capitalized on the basis of the costs incurred to acquire and bring to use the specific software. These costs are amortized over their estimated useful lives of 3 years.

Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

Costs associated with maintaining computer software programs are recognized as an expense as incurred. Development costs that are directly attributable to the design and testing of identifiable and unique software products controlled by the Group are recognized as intangible assets when the following criteria are met: (i) it is technically feasible to complete the software product so that it will be available for use; (ii) management intends to complete the software product and use or sell it; (iii) there is an ability to use or sell the software product; (iv) it can be demonstrated how the software product will generate probable future economic benefits; (v) adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the software product are available; and (vi) the expenditure attributable to the software product during its development can be reliably measured.

Directly attributable costs that are capitalized as part of the software product include the software development employee costs and an appropriate portion of relevant overheads.

Other development expenditures that do not meet these criteria are recognized as an expense as incurred. Development costs previously recognized as an expense are not recognized as an asset in a subsequent period.

Computer software development costs recognized as assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which does not exceed 3 years.
 
(c) Rights of use

The Group acquired certain rights to exploit land and facilities. These rights primarily comprise the right to exploit the land and attached buildings and facilities known as Arcos del Gourmet (“Arcos”)”.

The Arcos land and attached facilities is owned by ADIF, a governmental agency created for the management of certain state property, particularly assets pertaining to the railway system. The Arcos  are the old warehouse and adjacent spaces below the tracks of the San Martin railway lines. The Group intends to develop an open air shopping project comprising shops, restaurants, cultural spaces and other facilities. The right was acquired as part of the Arcos acquisition and is carried at acquisition cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is calculated using the straight-line method over the period in which the economic benefits from the use of the asset. The right of use of the Arcos will start to accrue economic benefits once construction works are completed. The Group must pay ADIF a fee on a monthly basis.

1.10.  
Impairment of assets

(a)
Goodwill

For the purpose of impairment testing, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows, known as cash-generating units (“CGU”). In order to determine whether any impairment loss should be recognized, the book value of CGU or CGU groups is compared against its recoverable value. Net book value of CGU and CGU groups include goodwill and assets with limited useful life (such as, investment properties, property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and working capital net).

If the recoverable amount of the CGU is less than the carrying amount of the unit, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro-rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Impairment losses recognized for goodwill are not reversed in a subsequent period.

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs-to-sell and value-in-use. The fair value is the amount at which a cash-generating unit may be sold in a current transaction between unrelated, willing and duly informed parties. Value-in-use is the present value of all estimated future cash flows expected to be derived from CGU or CGU groups.

(b)
Property, plant and equipment, investment property and finite-life intangible assets

At the date of each statements of financial position, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its property, plant and equipment, investment property and finite-life intangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent, if any, of the impairment loss. Where the asset does not generate cash flows that are independent from other assets, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the CGU to which the asset belongs.

If the recoverable amount of an asset or CGU  is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset or CGU is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognized immediately in the statements of income.

Assets or CGU that have suffered an impairment loss are revised as of each balance sheet date to assess a potential reversal of such impairment. The impairment loss recognized in prior fiscal years may only be reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to assess the recoverable value of assets or the CGU since the recognition of the impairment loss.

1.  
Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses the carrying amount of the asset or CGU is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, not to exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset or CGU in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized immediately in the statements of income.

1.11.  
Trading properties

Trading properties comprises those properties either intended for sale or in the process of construction for sale. Trading properties are carried at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Where there is a change in use of investment properties evidenced by the commencement of development with a view to sale, the properties are reclassified as trading properties at their cost, which is the carrying value at the date of change in use. They are subsequently carried at the lower of cost and net realizable value.

Cost comprises all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the trading properties to their present location and condition.

Borrowing costs incurred for the purpose of acquiring, constructing or producing a qualifying trading property are capitalized as part of its cost. A qualifying trading property is an asset that necessarily takes a substantial period of time to get ready for its intended use. Borrowing costs are capitalized while acquisition, construction or production is actively underway and cease once the asset is substantially complete or suspended if the development of the asset is suspended.

Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less costs to complete redevelopment and selling expenses. If the net realizable value is lower than the carrying amount, a write-down is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds its net realizable value. Write-downs are reversed when circumstances that caused the write-down cease to exist, or when net realizable value increases.

1.12.
Inventories

Inventories primarily comprise inventories from hotel properties and other supplies and materials required to offer different services.

Consumable supplies and inventories from hotel operations are measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The cost of consumable supplies, materials and other assets is determined using the weighted average cost method, whereas the cost of the hotel inventories is determined using the first in, first out (FIFO) method.

Cost comprises all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Inventories and materials are initially recognized at cash price, and the difference being charged as finance cost.

1.13 
Financial instruments

(a) 
Classification

The Group has adopted IFRS 9 in advance as well as the related consequential amendments to other IFRSs, because this new accounting policy provides reliable and more relevant information for users to assess the amounts, timing and uncertainty of future cash flows.

Accordingly, the Group classifies its financial assets in the following categories: those to be measured subsequently at fair value, and those to be measured at amortized cost. This classification depends on whether the financial asset is a debt or an equity investment.

Debt investments

(i) Financial assets at amortized cost

A debt investment is classified as “amortized cost” only if both of the following criteria are met: (i) the objective of the Group’s business model is to hold the asset to collect the contractual cash flows; and (ii) the contractual terms give rise on specified dates to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal outstanding. The nature of any derivatives embedded in the debt investment are considered in determining whether the cash flows of the investment are solely payment of principal and interest on the principal outstanding and are not accounted for separately.

As of June 30, 2012 and July 1, 2011, the Group’s financial assets at amortized cost comprise cash and cash equivalents and trade and other receivables, net.

(ii) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

If either of the two criteria above is not met, the debt instrument is classified as “fair value through profit or loss”. The Group has not designated any debt investment as measured at fair value through profit or loss to eliminate or significantly reduce an accounting mismatch.

Changes in fair values and gains from disposal of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are recorded within “Financial results, net” in the statements of income.

Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

As of June 30, 2012 and July 1, 2011 the Group’s financial assets at fair value through profit or loss comprise derivate financial instruments, mutual funds, mortgage bonds, government bonds and preferred shares.

Equity investments

All equity investments, which are not subsidiaries associate companies and joint venture of the Group, are measured at fair value. Equity investments that are held for trading are measured at fair value through profit or loss. For all other equity investments, the Group can make an irrevocable election at initial recognition to recognize changes in fair value through other comprehensive income rather than profit or loss.

The Group decided to recognize changes in fair value of equity investments through changes in profit or loss.
 
Changes in fair values and gains from disposal of equity investments at fair value through profit or loss and dividends income are recorded within “Financial results, net” in the statements of income.

(b) 
 Recognition and measurement

Regular purchases and sales of financial assets are recognized on the date on which the Group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows from the investments have expired or have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership.

At initial recognition, the Group measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value though profit or loss are expensed in the income statement.

In general, the Group uses the transaction price to ascertain the fair value of a financial instrument on initial recognition. In the other cases, the Group records a gain or loss on initial recognition only if the fair value of the financial instrument can be supported by other comparable transactions observable in the market for the same type of instrument or if based on a technical valuation that only inputs observable market data. Unrecognized gains or losses on initial recognition of a financial asset are recognized later on, only to the extent they arise from a change in factors (including time) that market participants would consider upon setting the price.

1.  
Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

Gains/losses on debt instruments measured at amortized cost and not identified for hedging purposes are charged to income where the financial assets are derecognized or an impairment loss is recognized, and during the amortization process under the effective interest method.

All equity investments, which are not subsidiaries, associate companies and joint venture of the Group, are measured at fair value.

The Group is required to reclassify all affected debt investments when and only when its business model for managing those assets changes.

(c)  
Impairment of financial assets

The Group assesses at the end of each reporting period whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets measured at amortized cost is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred only if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a ‘loss event’) and that loss event (or events) the can be reliably estimated.

Evidence of impairment may include indications that the debtors or a group of debtors is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, the probability that they will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization, and where observable data indicate that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows.

The amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced and the amount of the loss is recognized in the consolidated statements of income. As a practical expedient, the Group may measure impairment on the basis of an instrument’s fair value using an observable market price. If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the reversal of the previously recognized impairment loss is recognized in the consolidated statements of income.

(d)  
 Offsetting financial instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the statements of financial position when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

1.14 
Derivate financial instruments

Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value. The method of recognizing the resulting gain or loss depends on whether the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument, and if so, the nature of the item being hedged.

The Group manages exposures to various risks using hedging instruments that provide the appropriate economic outcome. The Group does not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. To date, the Group has used commodity future contracts, put and call options, foreign exchange contracts and interest rate swaps as deemed appropriate.

The Group’s policy is to apply hedge accounting to hedging relationships where it is both permissible under IFRS 9, practical to do so and its application reduces volatility, but transactions that may be effective hedges in economic terms may not always qualify for hedge accounting under IFRS 9. To date the Group has not applied hedge accounting to any of its derivative financial instruments. Trading derivatives are classified as a current asset or liability on the statements of financial position. Gains and losses on other derivatives are classified within “Financial results, net”.

The fair values of financial instruments that are traded in active markets are computed by reference to market prices. The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by using valuation techniques. The Group uses its judgment to select a variety of methods and make assumptions that are mainly based on market conditions existing at the end of each reporting period.

1.15  
Foreign-currency convertible debt

Foreign currency denominated convertible debt that is settled by delivering a fixed number of the issuing entity own equity instruments in exchange for a fixed amount of foreign currency fails the “fixed-for-fixed” requirement. Accordingly, the Group classifies the entire instrument as a financial liability in accordance with IAS 32 “Financial instruments: Presentation” and subjects its recognition and measurement to the IFRS 9 “Financial instruments” provisions. The conversion option is an embedded derivative that is not clearly and closely related to the debt host instrument because the risks inherent in the derivative (equity risk) and the host are dissimilar. Therefore, the conversion option has been separated and classified as a derivative liability. The carrying value of the debt host contract at initial recognition is the difference between the consideration received and the fair value of the embedded derivative. The host foreign-currency debt is subsequently re-measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method and then translated at each reporting date using the closing. exchange rate. Changes in the fair value of the embedded derivative are recognized in profit or loss for the period in which they arise under the line item “Financial results, net”.

1.16  
Trade and other receivables

Trade receivables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

An allowance for bad debts is recorded where there is objective evidence that the Group may not be able to collect all receivables within their original payment term. Indicators of bad debts include significant financial distress of the debtor, the debtor potentially filing a petition for reorganization or bankruptcy, or any event of default or past due account.

In the case of larger homogeneous receivables, the impairment provision is calculated on an individual basis. When assessed individually, the Group records an provision for impairment which amounts to the difference between the value of the discounted expected future cash flows of the receivable  and its carrying amount, taking into account the existing collateral, if any. This provision takes into consideration the financial situation of the debtor, the resources, payment track-record and, if applicable, the value of collateral.

The Group collectively evaluates for impairment smaller-balance homogeneous receivables, which are grouped on the basis of similar risk characteristics, taking into account asset type, collateral type, past-due status and other relevant factors. The Group applies allowance factors, which in the judgment of management represent the expected losses over the life of the receivables. In determining those factors, the Group considers the following: (i) delinquencies and overall risk ratings, (ii) loss history and the general behavior of clients, (iii) trends in volume and terms of receivables, (iv) the experience and depth of the debtors’ management, (v) national and local economic trends, (vi) concentrations of credit by individual credit size and by class of receivable, and (vii) the effect of other external factors.

The amount of the provision is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of a provision account, and the amount of the loss is recognized in the statements of income within “Selling expenses”. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against “Selling expenses” in the statements of income.

1.17.  
Trade and other payables

Trade payables are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

1.18.  
Tenant deposits

The Group generally obtains deposits from tenants as a guarantee for returning the property at the end of the lease term in a specified good condition or for the lease payments for a period of generally 3 years. The deposits generally equivalent to one month of lease rentals. Such deposits are treated as both a financial assets and a financial liability in accordance with IFRS 9, and they are initially recognized at fair value. The difference between fair value and cash received is considered to be part of the minimum lease payments received for the operating lease (refer to Note 1.26 for the recognition of rental income). The deposits are subsequently measured at amortized cost.

1.19.  
Borrowings

Borrowings are recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortized cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognized as finance cost over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.

1.20.  
Borrowing costs

General and specific borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets, until the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalization. All other borrowing costs are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred.

The Group capitalizes borrowing costs on qualifying investment properties, property, plant and equipment and trading properties.

1.21.  
Provisions

Provisions are recognized when (i) the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events; (ii) it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation; and (iii) a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can be made. Provisions are not recognized for future operating losses.

The Group bases its accruals on up-to-date developments, estimates of the outcomes of the matters and legal counsel experience in contesting, litigating and settling matters. As the scope of the liabilities becomes better defined or more information is available, the Group may be required to change its estimates of future costs, which could have a material effect on its results of operations and financial condition or liquidity.

Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognized in the statements of income.

1.22.  
Employee benefits

(a)  
Pension obligations

The Group operates a defined contribution plan. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Group pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. The Group has no legal or constructive obligations to pay further contributions if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods. The contributions are recognized as employee benefit expense when they are incurred.

(b)  
Termination benefits

Termination benefits are payable when employment is terminated by the Group before the normal retirement date, or whenever an employee accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. The Group recognizes termination benefits when it is demonstrably committed to either terminating the employment of current employees according to a detailed formal plan without possibility of withdrawal; or providing termination benefits as a result of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy.

(c)  
Bonus plans

The Group recognizes a liability and an expense for bonuses based on a formula that takes into consideration the profit attributable to the Company’s shareholders after certain adjustments. The Group recognizes a provision where contractually obliged or where there is a past practice that has created a constructive obligation.

1.23.  
Share-based payments

The Group operates an equity incentive plan, under which certain selected employees, directors and top management of the Company, CRESUD and APSA have a right to receive shares of their respective employer companies, although they must remain with the employer entity for a certain period of time.

The fair value of the equity settled awards is measured at the date of grant. Management measures the fair value using the valuation technique that it considers to be the most appropriate to value each class of award. Methods used may include Black-Scholes calculations or other models as appropriate. The valuations take into account factors such as non-transferability, exercise restrictions and behavioral considerations.

The fair value of the share-based payment is expensed and charged to income under the straight-line method over the vesting period in which the right to the equity instrument becomes irrevocable (“vesting period”); such value shall be based on the best available estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest. Such estimate shall be revised provided subsequent information available indicates that the number of equity instruments expected to vest differs from original estimates.

If a grant of an equity instrument is cancelled, it is accounted for as if it had vested on the cancellation date, and any expense not yet recognized for the grant is recognized immediately in the statement of income. Any payment made by a counterparty due to cancellation of share-based payment shall be accounted for as a repurchase of equity instruments (that is, it is deducted from shareholders’ equity) unless the payment exceeds the fair value of the repurchased equity instruments valued on the repurchase date.  The excess, if any, shall be accounted for as an expense.

1.24.  
Current and deferred income tax

Tax expense for the year comprises the charge for tax currently payable and deferred income. Tax is recognized in the statements of income, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the tax is also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the date of the statements of financial position in the countries where the Company and its subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. The Group establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.

1.  
Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

Deferred income tax is recognized, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, deferred tax liabilities are not recognized if they arise from the initial recognition of goodwill; deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the date of the statements of financial position and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realized or the deferred income tax liability is settled.

Deferred income tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized.

Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures, except for deferred income tax liabilities where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when the deferred income taxes assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities where there is an intention to settle the balances on a net basis.

The Group is able to control the timing of dividends from its subsidiaries and hence does not expect taxable profit. Hence deferred tax is recognized in respect of the retained earnings of overseas subsidiaries only to the to remit overseas earnings in the foreseeable future in a way that would result in a charge to extent that, at the date of the statements of financial position, dividends have been accrued as receivable or a binding agreement to distribute past earnings in future has been entered into by the subsidiary.

Entities in Argentina are subject to the Minimum Presumed Income Tax (“MPIT”). Pursuant to this tax regime, an entity is required to pay the greater of the income tax or the MPIT. The MPIT provision is calculated on an individual entity basis at the statutory asset tax rate of 1% and is based upon the taxable assets of each company as of the end of the year, as defined by Argentine law. Any excess of the MPIT over the income tax may be carried forward and recognized as a tax credit against future income taxes payable over a 10-year period. When the Group assesses that it is probable that it will use the MPIT payment against future taxable income tax charges within the applicable 10-year period, the Group recognizes the MPIT as a current or non-current receivable, as applicable, within “Trade and other receivables” in the statements of financial position.

Cash and cash equivalents

In the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents includes cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

1.26. 
Revenue recognition

The Group is engaged in diverse operations primarily including; investment and development properties and hotel operations. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration receiver or receivable.

Revenue derived from the sale of property is recognized when: (a) material risks and benefits derived from title to property have been transferred; (b) the company does not retain any management function on the assets sold nor does it have any control whatsoever on such assets; (c) the amount of revenues and costs associated to the transaction may be measured on a reliable basis; and (d) the company is expected to accrue the economic benefits associated to the transaction.

Revenue derived from the provision of services is recognized when (a) the amount of revenue and costs associated to the services may be measured on a reliable basis; (b) the company is expected to accrue the economic benefits associated to the transaction, and (c) the level of completion of services may be measured on a reliable basis.

Investment property activities:

·  
 Shopping centers portfolio

Revenues derived from business activities developed in the Group’s shopping centers mainly include rental income under operating leases, admission rights, commissions and revenue from several services provided to the Group’s lessees.

All lease agreements in Argentina are cancelable pursuant to Argentine Law 23,091 “Lease law” as amended by Law 24,808 “Lease Law”. Under the law, a lease is not cancelable within the first six months of the agreement, but provides that after that initial non-cancelable period, tenants may rescind agreements at any time upon giving prior written notice to lessors. The Law establishes that payments in connection with a rescission of the lease agreement to be made to the lessor are equivalent to one-and-a-half month’s rent if rescinded during the first year of the lease and one month’s rent if rescinded after the first year of the lease.

The Group analized the definition of the lease term in IAS 17, for its cancelable option, and which provides that a non-cancelable lease is a lease that is cancelable only (a) upon the occurrence of some remote contingency, (b) with the permission of the lessor, (c) if the lessee enters into a new lease with the same lessor or (d) upon payment by the lessee of such an additional amount that, at inception of the lease, continuation of the lease is reasonably certain.

The Group has determined that, in all operating leases, the lease term for accounting purposes matches the term of the contract. The Group concluded that, even though a lease is cancelable under the law, tenants would incur significant “economic penalties” if the leases are terminated prior to expiry. The Group considered that these economic penalties are of such amount that continuation of the lease contracts by tenants appears to be reasonably certain at the inception of the respective agreements. The Group reached this conclusion based on factors such as (i) the strategic geographical location and accessibility to customers of the Group’s investment properties; (ii) the nature and tenure of tenants (mostly well-known local and international retail chains), (iii) limited availability of identical revenue-producing space in the areas where the Group’s investment properties are located; (iv) the tenants’ brand image and other competitive considerations; (v) tenants’ significant expenses incurred in renovation, maintenance and improvements on the leased space to fit their own image; (vi) the majority of the Group’s tenants only have stores in shopping centers with a few or none street stores.

Lessees of shopping centers are generally required to pay the higher of: (i) a base monthly rent (the “Base Rent”) and (ii) a specific percentage of gross monthly sales recorded by the Lessee (the “Supplementary Rent”), which generally ranges between 4% and 10% of gross sales. Moreover, in accordance with agreements entered into for most locations, the Base Rent is subject to scheduled increases, typically between 7% and 12% per year over the term of the lease.

In addition, some lease contracts include provisions that set forth variable rent based on specific volumes of sales and other types of ratios.

Rental income from shopping center properties leased out under operating leases is recognized in the statements of income on a straight-line basis over the term of the leases. When lease incentives are granted, they are recognized as an integral part of the net consideration for the use of the property and are therefore recognized on the same straight-line basis.

Contingent rents, being lease payments that are not fixed at the inception of a lease, are recorded as income in the periods in which they are known and can be determined. Rent reviews are recognized when such reviews have been agreed with tenants.

Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

Tenants in the Group’s shopping centers are also generally charged a non-refundable admission right upon entering a lease contract or renewing an existing one. Admission rights are treated as additional rental income and recognized in the statements of income under a straight-line basis over the term of the respective lease agreement.

The Group acts as its own leasing agent for arranging and closing lease agreements in its shopping center properties and consequently earns letting fees. A transaction is considered successfully concluded when both parties have signed the related lease contract. Letting fees received by the Group are treated as additional rental income and are recognized in the statements of income on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease agreements.

Lease contracts also provide that common area maintenance expenses of the Group’s shopping centers are borne by the corresponding lessees, generally on a proportionally basis. These common area maintenance expenses include all such expenses convenient and necessary for various purposes including, but not limited to, the operation, maintenance, management, safety, preservation, repair, supervision, insurance and enhancement of the shopping centers. The lessor is responsible for determining the need and suitability of incurring a common area expense. The Group makes the original payment for such expenses, which are then reimbursed by the lessees. The Group considered that it acts as a principal in these cases.

Service charge income is presented separately from property operating expenses. Property operating expenses are expensed as incurred.

Under the lease contracts entered into, lessees also agree to participate in collective promotion funds (“FPC”) to be used in advertising and promoting the Group’s shopping centers. Each lessee’s participation is generally calculated as a percentage of the monthly rent accrued. Revenue so derived is also included under rental income and services segregated from advertising and promotion expenses. Such expenses are charged to income when incurred.

On the other hand, revenue includes income from managed operations and other services such as car parking lots. Those revenues are recognized on an accrual basis as services are provided.

Office and other rental properties portfolio

Rental income from office and other rental properties include rental income from office leased out under operating leases, income for services and expenses recovery paid by tenant.

Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

Rental income from office and other rental properties leased out under operating leases is recognized in the income statements on a straight-line basis over the term of the leases (‘rent averaging’). When lease incentives are granted, they are recognized as an integral part of the net consideration for the use of the property and are therefore recognized on the same straight-line basis.

Contingent rents, are recorded as income in the periods in which they are collected. Rent reviews are recognized when such reviews have been agreed with tenants.

A substantial portion of the Group’s leases require the tenant to reimburse the Group for a substantial portion of operating expenses, usually a proportionate share of the allocable operating expenses, Such property operating expenses includes necessary expenses such as property operating, repairs and maintenance, security, janitorial, insurance, landscaping, leased properties and other administrative expenses, among others. The Group considered that it acts as a principal in these cases. The Group accrues reimbursements from tenants as service charge revenue in the period the applicable expenditures are incurred and is presented separately from property operating expenses. Property operating expenses are expensed as incurred.

·  
Development property activities:

Revenue primarily comprises the proceeds from the sale of trading properties. Revenue from the sale of properties is recognized only when the significant risks and rewards have transferred to the buyer. This will normally take place on unconditional exchange of contracts (except where payment or completion is expected to occur significantly after exchange). For conditional exchanges, sales are recognized when these conditions are satisfied.

The Group applies IFRIC 15 “Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate”. IFRIC 15 gives guidance as to which standard applies when accounting for the construction of real estate; that is IAS 11 “Construction Contracts” or IAS 18 “Revenue”. IFRIC 15 interprets that an agreement meets the definition of a construction contract under IAS 11 when the buyer is able to specify the major structural elements of the design of the property either before or during construction. Furthermore, IFRIC 15 interprets that an agreement is for the sale of goods under IAS 18 when construction takes place independently of the agreement and the buyer has only a limited ability to influence the design. The Group has assessed the nature of its agreements and determined that they are within the scope of IAS 18. As a result, the Group recognizes revenue from the sale of open market private homes and commercial units entirely at the point of legal completion in accordance with IAS 18.

Summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

The Group also enters into barter transactions where the Group normally exchanges undeveloped parcels of land with third-party developers for future property to be constructed on the bartered land. Sometimes, the Group also receives monetary assets (i.e. cash) as part of the transactions. The legal title together with all risks and rewards of ownership to the land are transferred to the developer upon sale. The Group generally requires the developer to issue surety insurances or to mortgage the land in favor of the Group as performance guarantee. In the event the developer does not fulfill its obligations, the Group forecloses the land through the execution of the mortgage or the surety insurances, together with a cash penalty.

The Group determines that its barter transactions have commercial substance and that the conditions for revenue recognition on the transfer of land are met at the time the transaction takes place. Revenue is then recognized at the fair value of the goods to be received (i.e. the residential apartments to be constructed), adjusted by the amount of cash received, if any. In exchange for the land given up, the Group receives cash, if any, and an in-kind receivable. The in-kind receivable is initially recognized at fair value and is not subsequently remeasured. The in-kind receivable is classified as trading property in the statements of financial position.

The Group may sell the residential apartments to third-party homebuyers once they are finalized and transferred from the developer. In these circumstances, revenue is recognized when the significant risks and rewards are transferred to the buyer. This will normally take place when the title deeds are transferred to the homebuyer.

On the other hand, the Group may market the residential apartments during construction or even before construction commences. In these situations, homebuyers generally surrenders a downpayment to the Group with the remaining amount being paid when the developer completes the property and transfers it to the Group, and the Group in turn transfers it to the buyer. In these cases, revenue is not recognized until the apartments are completed and the transaction is legally completed, that is when the apartments are transferred to the homebuyers and deeds of title are executed. This is because in the event the residential apartments are not completed by the developer and consequently not delivered to the homebuyer, the Group is contractually obligated to return to the homebuyer any down payment received plus a penalty amount. The Group may then seek legal remedy against the developer for non-performance of its obligations under the agreement. The Group exercised judgment and considers that the most significant risk associated with the asset the Group holds (i.e. the right to receive the apartments) consisting of the unfulfillment of the developer's obligations (i.e. to complete the construction of the apartments) has not been transferred to the homebuyers upon reception of the down payment.

Hotel operations of the Group:

Revenue from hotel operations primarily comprises room accommodation, catering and other services. Revenue from product sales are recognized when the product is delivered and the significant risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the buyer. Revenues from sales of services are recognized when the service is rendered. All other revenues are recognized on an accruals basis.

Share capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new ordinary shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.

1.28. 
Earnings per share

Basic profit / (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the net profit / (loss) for the year attributable to equity holders of the parent by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted net profit / (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net profit / (loss) for the year by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, and when dilutive, adjusted for the effect of all potentially dilutive shares, including share options, on an as-if converted basis.

In computing diluted profit / (loss) per share, income available to common shareholders used in the basic profit / (loss) per share calculation is adjusted to add back the after-tax amount of interest recognized in the year with respect to any debt convertible to common stock. The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding is adjusted to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive potential common shares had been issued. Diluted profit / (loss) per share is based on the most advantageous conversion rate or exercise price over the entire term of the instrument from the standpoint of the security holder. The calculation of diluted profit / (loss) per share excludes potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. See Note 34 for details.

1.29. 
Dividend distribution

Cash dividend distribution to the Group’s shareholders is recognized as a liability in the Group’s financial statements in the period in which the dividends are approved.

As indicated in Note 27, the Group has been refunded dividends deposited with the Caja de Valores. Such amounts have been recorded either under Retained Earnings, if already forfeited or under Dividends payable, if not forfeited.

 Purchase of financial assets

Purchase of preferred shares and warrants Supertel Hospitality Inc. (“Supertel”)

On February, 2012, the Group, through its subsidiary Real Estate Strategies L.P., acquired 3 million of preferred shares and 30 million of Supertel´s warrants for a total amount of US$ 30 million. Supertel is a Real Estate Investment Trust that focuses its activity on medium class long-stay hotels and. Supertel owns approximately 101 hotels in 23 states of the United States of America, which are managed by diverse operators and franchises, such as Comfort Inn, Days Inn, Hampton Inn, Holiday Inn, Sleep Inn and Super 8, among others.

The mentioned preferred shares accrue a preferred dividend of 6.25% per annum and are convertible into 30 million common shares at a fixed price of US$ 1 per share. Subject to certain limitations, they can be exercised completely or partially at any time until February, 2017. Preferred shares grant the Group, the same politic rights as those of Supertel´s common shares.

Warrants grant the Group the right to acquire 30 million Supertel’s common shares at a fixed price of US$ 1.20 per share. Subject to certain limitations, these warrants can be exercised completely or partially at any time until February  2017.

As a holder of Preferred Shares, the Group has approximately 34% of the voting rights in Supertel's Shareholders' Meetings. Additionally, the Group is entitled to appoint up to 4 directors, out of a total of 9, and participates in the decision-making process of Supertel’s Executive Committee concerning the acquisition, disposal and administration of Supertel's real estate assets. However, under no circumstances may the Group hold an interest in Supertel of more than 34% of its capital stock and/or more than 34% of the voting rights in Supertel’s Shareholders’ Meetings.

In spite of the fact that the Group exerts significant influence on Supertel, neither the Preferred Shares nor the Warrants entitle the Group to the economic benefits of an equity interest in Supertel (the Group does not have any equity interest in Supertel). Therefore, the Preferred Shares and Warrants were recorded as financial assets and measured at fair value, and the resulting changes were disclosed in the statements of income, as required by IFRS 9 and IAS 39.

When initially recognized, the consideration paid for the Preferred Shares and Warrants was allocated to both instruments, based on their respective fair values upon acquisition. The fair values of these instruments exceeded the price of the transaction and were assessed using a valuation method that incorporates unobservable market data. Given the fact that the fair values of these instruments were estimated by applying a valuation method that incorporates unobservable market data, the Group did not recognize a gain of Ps. 34.3 million at the time of initial recognition.

Contribution to Don Mario S.G.R.

On June 29, 2012, the Group, through APSA, effectively made a contribution in the amount of Ps. 10,000 to Don Mario S.G.R., a reciprocal guarantee company under Argentine law. The SGRs are legal entities created for promoting financing for the small and medium business (PYME) and for reactivating national economy. SGRs are funded through the contributions of investors who, in turn, obtain tax benefits. The SGRs act in their capacity of guarantors for PYMES in relation to the loans they receive from financial institutions. The funds received are generally invested in fixed-term deposits by the SGRs. The Group has received five shares with a nominal value of Ps. 0.005. These shares are symbolic and merely represent the Group’s rights in the investment. These shares do not grant control or significant influence over the entity’s activities. APSA must maintain the investment in the SGR for a period of 2 years in order to make use of the tax benefit

Acquisition of Cresud’s corporate notes

On March 10, 2011 and June 21, 2012, the Group through ERSA acquired Cresud S.A.C.I.F. y A.’s Non-convertible Notes for US$ 2.5 million and Ps. 13.74 million, respectively.

The amount of the transaction was Ps. 69 million, which was paid by the buyer upon execution of the conveyance deed. The result for this transaction amounted to Ps. 53.7 million.

The properties mentioned above were classified as investment properties until the above mentioned transactions were executed, which represents a gross lease area of approximately 41,193 square meters.

Financial risk management

           Risk management principles and processes

The risk management function within the Group is carried out in respect of financial risks. Financial risks are risks arising from financial instruments to which the Group is exposed during or at the end of the reporting period. Financial risk comprises market risk (including foreign currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk), credit risk, liquidity risk and capital risk.

The Group’s diverse activities are exposed to a variety of financial risks in the normal course of business. The Group’s overall risk management program focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize the Group’s capital costs by using suitable means of financing and to manage and control the Group’s financial risks effectively. The Group uses financial instruments to hedge certain risk exposures when deemed appropriate based on its internal management risk policies.

The Group’s principal financial instruments comprise cash and cash equivalents, receivables, payables, interest bearing assets and liabilities, other financial liabilities, other investments and derivative financial instruments. The Group manages its exposure to key financial risks in accordance with the Group’s risk management policies.

Financial risk management(Continued)

The Group’s risk management policies are established to all its subsidiaries companies in order to identify and analyze the risks faced by the Group, to set appropriate risk limits and controls to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Group’s activities. The Group’s management framework includes policies, procedures, limits and allowed types of derivative financial instruments. The Group has established a Risk Committee, comprising Senior Management and a member of the Audit Committee, which reviews and oversees management’s compliance with these policies, procedures and limits and has overall accountability for the identification and management of risk across the Group.

This section provides a description of the principal risks and uncertainties that could have a material adverse effect on the Group’s strategy, performance, results of operations and financial condition. The principal risks and uncertainties facing the businesses, set out below, do not appear in any particular order of potential materiality or probability of occurrence.

(a)  
Market risk management

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. The Group’s market risks arise from open positions in foreign currencies, interest-bearing assets and liabilities and equity securities price risks, to the extent that these are exposed to general and specific market movements. The Group sets limits on the exposure to these risks that may be accepted, which are monitored on a regular basis.

The examples of sensitivities to market risks included below are based on a change in one factor while holding all other factors constant. In practice this is unlikely to occur, and changes in some of the factors may be correlated – for example, changes in interest rate and changes in foreign currency rates.

Foreign exchange risk:

The Group publishes its consolidated financial statements in Argentine Pesos but conducts business in many foreign currencies. As a result, the Group is subject to foreign currency exchange risk due to exchange rate movements, which affect the Group’s transaction. Foreign exchange risk arises when future commercial transactions or recognized assets or liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the entity’s functional currency.

Financial risk management(Continued)

The real estate activities of the Group’s subsidiaries are primarily located in Argentina where the Argentine Peso is the functional currency. A significant majority of the Group’s business activities is conducted in the respective functional currencies of the subsidiaries (Principally the Argentine Peso), thus not exposing the Group to foreign exchange risk. However, in the ordinary course of business, the Group transacts in currencies other than the respective functional currencies of the subsidiaries. These transactions are primarily denominated in US dollars The Group’s net financial position exposure to the US dollar is managed on a case-by-case basis, by entering into different derivative instruments and/or by borrowing in foreign currencies. Exposure to other foreign currencies has not been significant to date.

The following table shows the Company’s US dollar-denominated net carrying amounts of its financial instruments broken down by the functional currencies in which the Company operates. Financial instruments are only considered sensitive to foreign exchange rates where they are not in the functional currency of the entity that holds them. The amounts are presented in Argentine Pesos, the presentation currency of the Company:

 
Net monetary position
(Liability)/Asset
Functional currency
06.30.2012
Argentine Peso.                                                     
(1,546,228)
Total                                                     
(1,546,228)

Based on materiality grounds, the table below shows the Group’s sensitivity to foreign exchange rates on its US dollar-denominated financial instruments. The Group estimates that, other factors being constant, a 10% appreciation of the US dollar against the respective functional currencies at year-end would decrease profit before income tax for the year ended June 30, 2012 for an amount of Ps. 154.6 million. A 10% depreciation of the US dollar against the functional currencies would have an equal and opposite effect on the statements of income.

This sensitivity analysis provides only a limited, point-in-time view of the foreign exchange risk sensitivity of certain of the Group’s financial instruments. The actual impact of the interest rate changes on the Group’s financial instruments may differ significantly from the impact shown in the sensitivity analysis.

Financial risk management(Continued)

Interest rate risk:

The Group is exposed to interest rate risk on its investments in debt instruments, short-term and long-term borrowings and derivative financial instruments.

The primary objective of the Group’s investment activities is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing yields without significantly increasing risk. To achieve this objective, the Group diversifies its portfolio in accordance with the limits set by the Group. The Group maintains a portfolio of cash equivalents and short-term investments in a variety of securities, including both government and corporate obligations and money market funds.

Investments in both fixed rate and floating rate instruments carry varying degrees of interest rate risk. Fixed rate securities may have their fair market value adversely impacted due to a rise in interest rates. In general, longer dated securities are subject to greater interest rate risk than shorter dated securities. While floating rate securities are generally subject to less interest rate risk than fixed rate securities, floating rate securities may produce less income than expected if interest rates decrease. Due in part to these factors, the Group’s investment income may fall short of expectations or the Group may suffer losses in principal if securities that have declined in market value due to changes in interest rates are sold. As of June 30, 2012, the Group has not utilized derivative financial instruments to hedge interest rate risk on investments; however, the Group may employ hedging strategies in the future if deemed appropriate.

As the Group’s investments on this type of financial instruments subject to this risk are not significant, changes in market interest rates do not have any significant direct effect on the Group’s income.

The Group’s interest rate risk principally arises from long-term borrowings (Note 22). Borrowings issued at variable rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk. Borrowings issued at fixed rates expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk. The Group manages this risk by maintaining an appropriate mix between fixed and floating rate interest bearing liabilities. These activities are evaluated regularly to determine that the Group is not exposed to interest rate movements that could adversely impact its ability to meet its financial obligations and to comply with its borrowing covenants.

The Group occasionally manages its cash flow interest rate risk exposure by different hedging instruments, including but not limited to interest rate swap, depending on each particular case. For example, interest rate swaps have the economic effect of converting borrowings from floating rates to fixed rates or viceversa.

 Financial risk management (Continued)

The interest rate risk policy is approved by the Board of Directors. Management analyses the Group’s interest rate exposure on a dynamic basis. Various scenarios are simulated, taking into consideration refinancing, renewal of existing positions and alternative financing sources. Based on these scenarios, the Group calculates the impact on profit and loss of a defined interest rate shift. The scenarios are run only for liabilities that represent the major interest-bearing positions. Trade payables are normally interest-free and have settlement dates within one year. The simulation is done on a regular basis to verify that the maximum potential loss is within the limits set by management.

The following tables show a breakdown of the Group’s fixed-rate and floating-rate borrowings per currency denomination and functional currency of the subsidiary issuing the loans (excluding finance leases). All amounts are shown in thousands of Argentine Pesos, the Group’s presentation currency:

The sensitivity analysis provides only a limited, point-in-time view of this market risk sensitivity of certain of the Group’s financial instruments. The actual impact of the interest rate changes on the Group’s financial instruments may differ significantly from the impact shown in the sensitivity analysis.

Other price risk

The Group is exposed to equity securities price risk or derivative financial instruments because of investments held in entities that are publicly traded (TGLT, Hersha and Supertel) which are classified on the consolidated statements of financial position at “fair value through profit or loss”. The Group regularly reviews the prices evolution of these equity securities in order to identify significant movements.

The table below shows the Group’s sensitivity to equity securities price risk. The Group estimates that, other factors being constant, a 10% decrease in equity securities quoted prices at year-end would decrease profit before income tax for the years ended June 30, 2012. As flollows:

(b)  
 Credit risk management

Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the Group. Credit limits have been established to ensure that the Group deals only with approved counterparties and that counterparty concentration risk is addressed and the risk of loss is mitigated. Counterparty exposure is measured as the aggregate of all obligations of any single legal entity or economic entity to the Group.

The Group is subject to credit risk arising from deposits with banks and financial institutions, investments of surplus cash balances, the use of derivative financial instruments and from outstanding receivables. Credit risk is managed on a country-by-country basis. Each local entity is responsible for managing and analyzing the credit risk.

The Group’s policy is to manage credit exposure to deposits, short-term investments and other financial instruments by maintaining diversified funding sources in various financial institutions. All the institutions that operate with the Group are well known because of their experience in the market and high quality credit. The Group places its cash and cash equivalents, investments, and other financial instruments with various high credit quality financial institutions, thus mitigating the amount of credit exposure to any one institution. The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments in the statements of financial position.

The Group’s primary objective for holding derivative financial instruments is to manage currency exchange rate risk and interest rate risk. The Group generally enters into derivative transactions with high-credit-quality counterparties and, by policy, limits the amount of credit exposure to each counterparty. The amounts subject to credit risk related to derivative instruments are generally limited to the amounts, if any, by which counterparty’s obligations exceed the obligations that the Group has with that counterparty.  The credit risk associated with derivative financial instruments is representing by the carrying value of the assets positions of these instruments.

The Group’s policy is to manage credit risks associated with trade and other receivables within defined trading limits. All Group’s significant counterparties have internal trading limits.

Trade receivables from investment and development property activities are primarily derived from leases and services from shopping centers, office and other rental properties; receivables from the sale of trading properties and investment properties (primarily undeveloped land and non-retail rental properties). The Group has a large customer base and is not dependent on any single customer.

Financial risk management(Continued)

Trade receivables related to leases and services provided by the Group represent a diversified tenant base and account for 91.7% and 73 % of the Group’s total trade receivables as of June 30, 2012 and July 1, 2011, respectively. The Group has specific policies to ensure that rental contracts are transacted with counterparties with appropriate credit quality. The majority of the Group’s shopping center, office and other rental properties’ tenants are well recognized retailers, diversified companies, professional organizations, and others. Owing to the long-term nature and diversity of its tenancy arrangements, the credit risk of this type of trade receivables is considered to be low. Generally, the Group has not experienced any significant losses resulting from the non-performance of any counterpart to the lease contracts and, as a result, the provision for impairment of receivables is low. Individual risk limits are set based on internal or external ratings in accordance with limits set by the Group. If there is no independent rating, risk control assesses the credit quality of the customer, taking into account its past experience, financial position, actual experience and other factors. Based on the Group’s analysis, the Group determines the size of the deposit that is required from the tenant at inception. Management does not expect any losses from non-performance by these counterparties. See details in Note 15.

On the other hand, property receivables related to the sale of trading properties represent 4.7% and 9.3% of the Group’s total trade receivables as of June 30, 2012 and July 1, 2011, respectively. Payments on these receivables have generally been received when due. These receivables are generally secured by mortgages on the properties. Therefore, the credit risk on outstanding amounts is considered very low.

(c) Liquidity risk management

The Group is exposed to liquidity risks, including risks associated with refinancing borrowings as they mature, the risk that borrowing facilities are not available to meet cash requirements, and the risk that financial assets cannot readily be converted to cash without loss of value. Failure to manage liquidity risks could have a material impact on the Group’s cash flow and statements of financial position. Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash, the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities and the ability to close out market positions. Due to the dynamic nature of the underlying businesses, the Group aims to maintain flexibility in funding its existing and prospective debt requirements by maintaining diversified funding sources.

The Group monitors its current and projected financial position using several key internally generated reports: cash flow; debt maturity; and interest rate exposure. The Group also undertakes sensitivity analysis to assess the impact of proposed transactions, movements in interest rates and changes in property values on the key profitability, liquidity and balance sheet ratios.

  Financial risk management (Continued)

The Group’s debt and derivative positions are continually reviewed to meet current and expected debt requirements. The Group maintains a balance between longer-term and shorter-term financings. Short-term financing is principally raised through bank facilities and overdraft positions. Medium- to longer-term financing comprises public and private bond issues, including private placements. Financing risk is spread by using a variety of types of debt. The maturity profile is managed in accordance with Group’s needs, by spreading the repayment dates and extending facilities, as appropriate.

The tables below show financial liabilities, including Group’s derivative financial liabilities groupings based on the remaining period at the statements of financial position to the contractual maturity date. The amounts disclosed in the tables are the contractual undiscounted cash flows and as a result, they do not reconcile to the amounts disclosed on the statements of financial position. However, undiscounted cash flows in respect of balances due within 12 months generally equal their carrying amounts in the statements of financial position, as the impact of discounting is not significant. The tables include both interest and principal flows.

Where the interest payable is not fixed, the amount disclosed has been determined by reference to the projected interest rates implied by yield curves at the reporting date.

(d) Capital risk management

The capital structure of the Group consists of shareholders’ equity and net borrowings. The type and maturity of the Group’s borrowings are analyzed further in Note 25. The Group’s equity is analyzed into its various components in the statements of changes in equity.

Financial risk management(Continued)

Capital is managed so as to promote the long-term success of the business and to maintain sustainable returns for shareholders.

The Group seeks to manage its capital requirements to maximize value through the mix of debt and equity funding, while ensuring that Group entities continue to operate as going concerns, comply with applicable capital requirements and maintain strong credit ratings.

The Group assesses the adequacy of its capital requirements, cost of capital and gearing (i.e. debt/equity mix) as part of its broader strategic plan. The Group continuously reviews its capital structure to ensure that (i) sufficient funds and financing facilities are available to implement the Group’s property development and business acquisition strategies, (ii) adequate financing facilities for unforeseen contingencies are maintained, and (iii) distributions to shareholders are maintained within the Group’s dividend distribution policy. The Group also protects its equity in assets by taking out insurance.

The Group’s strategy is to maintain key financing metrics (net debt to total equity ratio or gearing and debt ratio) in order to ensure that asset level performance is translated into enhanced returns for shareholders whilst maintaining an appropriate risk reward balance to accommodate changing financial and operating market cycles.

The following table details a number of the Group’s key metrics in relation to managing its capital structure. The levels of these metrics are within the ranges established by the Group’s strategy.

(i)  
Calculated as total debt (including current and non-current borrowings) divided by total capital (including equity plus total debt). Share of joint ventures is not considered in the calculation.
(ii)  
Calculated as total debt divided by total properties and investments (including trading properties and property investments and fields).  Share of joint ventures is not considered in the calculation.

Financial risk management (Continued)

(e) Other non-financial risks

Property risk:

           There are several risks affecting the Group’s property investments. The composition of the Group’s property portfolio including asset concentration and lot size may impact liquidity and relative property performance. The Group has a large multi-asset portfolio and monitors its concentration and average investment property lot size.

A change in trends and economic conditions causes shifts in customer demands for properties with impact on new lettings, renewal of existing leases and reduced rental growth. Also changes increase risk of tenant insolvencies. The Group conducts several actions to mitigate some of these risks whenever possible. The variety of asset types and geographical spread as well as a diversified tenant base, with monitoring of tenant concentration, helps mitigating these risks.

The development, administration and profitability of shopping centers are impacted by various factors including: the accessibility and the attractiveness of the area where the shopping center is located, the intrinsic attractiveness of the shopping center, the flow of people, the level of sales of each shopping center rental unit, the increasing competition from internet sales, the amount of rent collected from each shopping center rental unit and the fluctuations in occupancy levels in the shopping centers. In the event that there is an increase in operational costs, caused by inflation or other factors, it could have a material adverse effect on the Group if its tenants are unable to pay their higher rent obligations due to the increase in expenses. Argentine Law No. 24,808 provides that tenants may rescind commercial lease agreements after the initial six months upon not less than sixty days written notice, subject to penalties of only one-and-a-half month rent if the tenant rescinds during the first year of the lease, and one-month rent if the tenant rescinds during the second year of the lease. The exercise of such rescission rights could materially and adversely affect the Group.

Financial risk management (Continued)

Risks associated with development properties activities include the following: the potential abandonment of development opportunities; construction costs exceeding original estimates, possibly making a project uneconomical; occupancy rates and rents at newly completed projects may be insufficient to make the project profitable. On the other hand, the Group’s inability to obtain financing on favorable terms for the development of the project; construction and lease-up may not be completed on schedule, resulting in increased debt service expense and construction costs; and the Group’s inability to obtain, or the delays in obtaining, all necessary zoning, land-use, building, occupancy and other required governmental permits and authorizations; preconstruction buyers may default on their purchase contracts or units in new buildings may remain unsold upon completion of constructions; prices for residential units may be insufficient to cover development cost. The Group also takes several actions to monitor these risks and respond appropriately whenever it is under its control. The Group has in-house property market research capability and development teams that monitor development risks closely. The Group generally adopts conservative assumptions on leasing and other variables and monitors the level of committed future capital expenditure on development programs relative to the level of undrawn facilities.

The Group’s hotel properties face specific risks as well. The success of the Group’s hotel properties will depend, in large part, upon the Group’s ability to compete in areas such as access, location, quality of accommodations, room rate structure and the quality and type of services offered. The Group’s hotels may face additional competition if other companies decide to build new hotels or improve their existing hotels such that they are more attractive to potential guests. In addition, their profitability depends on (i) the Group’s ability to form successful relationships with international operators to run the hotels; (ii) changes in travel patterns, including seasonal changes; and (iii) taxes and governmental regulations which influence or determine wages, prices, interest rates, construction procedures and costs.

 4.  
 Significant judgments, key assumptions and estimates

The Group’s significant accounting policies are stated in Note 1. Not all of these significant accounting policies require management to make subjective or complex judgments or estimates. The following section is intended to provide an understanding of the policies that management considers critical because of the level of complexity, judgment or estimation involved in their application and their impact on the consolidated financial statements. These judgments involve assumptions or estimates in respect of future events. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

  Significant judgments, key assumptions and estimates (Continued)

4.1. 
Significant key assumptions and estimates

(a)  
Business combinations – purchase price allocation

The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the purchase method. Accounting for business combinations requires the allocation of the Group’s purchase price to the various assets and liabilities of the acquired business at their respective fair values. The Group uses all available information to make these fair value determinations, and for major acquisitions, may hire an independent appraisal firm to assist in making fair value estimates. In some instances, assumptions with respect to the timing and amount of future revenues and expenses associated with an asset might have to be used in determining its fair value. These assumptions may differ materially from those initial estimates, and if the timing is delayed significantly or if the net cash flows decline significantly, the asset could become impaired.

  (b)
 Impairment testing of goodwill and other non-current assets

As of the closing date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of property, plant and equipment, finite-life intangible assets and investment property in order to identify if there are events or circumstances that indicate a decline in the recoverable amount of these assets. The indications that must be taken into account in the analysis are, among other points, physical damage or significant changes to the manner in which the asset is used, worse than expected economic performance or a drop in revenues. When the asset does not generate independent cash flows from others assets, the Group estimates the recoverable value of the cash-generating unit to which the asset relates.

Goodwill is not amortized but it is tested for impairment on an annual basis, or more frequently if there is an indication of impairment. For the purposes of the impairment testing, goodwill is to be allocated since acquisition among each of the cash generating units or groups of cash generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the respective business combinations, regardless of the allocation of other assets or liabilities owned by the acquired entity to these cash-generating units or groups of cash-generating units.

If the recoverable value of an asset or cash-generating unit is lower than its carrying value, the carrying value of the asset or cash-generating unit is thus written down to its recoverable value. Impairment losses are immediately recorded in the statements of income.

Significant judgments, key assumptions and estimates(Continued)

Given the nature of the Group’s assets and activities, most of its individual assets do not generate cash flows independently from the CGU. Therefore, the Group estimates the recoverable value of the CGU for the purposes of the impairment test. Each business center, office building and undeveloped property is generally considered as an independent CGU.

There was no indication of impairment for any of the reported years. Therefore, the Group carried out impairment tests only on such cash-generating units to which goodwill was allocated.

The following table shows the amounts corresponding to goodwill and to non-current assets other than the goodwill of cash-generating units with allocated goodwill for fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 and as of the transition date, July 1, 2011.

(i) Non-current assets include investment properties (principally shopping centers and offices), property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and net working capital.

The Group carried out the impairment test on this CGUs on the basis of its fair value less the cost of sale and concluded that no impairment should be recognized on the value of these assets for any of the reported years.

The fair value less the cost of sale of the CGUs in the segments "Offices” is assessed by applying the discounted cash flow model. The Group uses the fair value of investment property estimated by independent appraisers. The involvement of an independent appraiser is mandatory according to Resolution No. 576/10 of the Argentine Securities Commission.


  4.  
Significant judgments, key assumptions and estimates (Continued)

Under the discounted cash flows model, independent appraisers estimate net future cash flows based on the prevailing terms and conditions of rental contracts or otherwise and, where practicable, based on external information, such as, the rent paid in the marketplace for similar property with similar conditions and location. This estimate also considers the discount rates that reflect the market assessments regarding uncertainties in terms of the cash flow amount and timing. Any inaccuracy in the most sensitive assumptions used by the appraisers may result in differences in the fair value of the Group’s property. The amount of net future cash flows was estimated based on the specific features of each property (including but not limited to location, sales, occupation and turnout), the agreements in force, market information and future forecasts as of the valuation date. Net income forecasts, revenues growth rates and discount rates are among the most important assumptions used in the valuation.

The valuation of the CGUs included in the segment "Sales and Developments" was determined by applying a sales comparison approach. Under this model, the sale price of comparable property located nearby is adjusted by the differences in the most significant features of such property, such as, size and condition. The most relevant data included in this method is the price per square meter.

Management believes these assumptions are conservative and that any reasonable change in the same would not increase the book value of the CGU so as to exceed its recoverable value.

(c) Trading properties

Trading properties comprises those properties either intended for sale or in the process of construction for sale. Trading properties are carried at the lower of cost and net realizable value. On each development, judgment is required to assess whether the cost of land and any associated construction work in progress is in excess of its net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less costs to complete redevelopment and selling expenses.

The estimation of the net realizable value of the Group’s trading properties under development is inherently subjective due to a number of factors, including their complexity, size, the expenditure required and timescales to completion. In addition, as a result of these timescales to completion, the plans associated with these developments could be subject to significant variation. As a result, the net realizable values of the Group’s trading properties are subject to a degree of uncertainty and are made on the basis of assumptions that may be inaccurate.

If these assumptions prove to be so, this may have an impact on the net realizable value of the Group’s trading properties, which would in turn have an effect on the Group’s financial condition.

Significant judgments, key assumptions and estimates (Continued)

(d) Fair value of derivatives and other financial instruments

Fair values of derivative financial instruments are computed with reference to quoted market prices on trade exchanges, when available. The fair values of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market are determined by using valuation techniques. The Group uses its judgment to select a variety of methods and make assumptions that are mainly based on market conditions existing at statements of financial position.

(e) Provision for impairment of receivables

As described on Note 1.16, the Group makes some estimation in order to calculate the provision for impairment of receivables. If the amount estimated differs to the present value, actual write-offs would be more/less than expected.

4.2. 
Significant judgments in the application of Group’s accounting policies

Income taxes

The Group is subject to income taxes in numerous jurisdictions. Significant judgment is required in determining the overall provision for income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The Group recognizes liabilities for anticipated tax audit issues based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due. Where the final tax outcome of these matters is different from the amounts that were initially recorded, such differences will impact the current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities in the period in which such determination is made.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, the Group considers whether it is probable that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In order to make this assessment, management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies. See details on Note 25.

5.  
 Segment information

IFRS 8 requires an entity to report financial and descriptive information about its reportable segments, which are operating segments or aggregations of operating segments that meet specified criteria. Operating segments are components of an entity about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”). Such function is carried out by the Group’s Executive Committee in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance, without prejudice of the powers and responsibilities of the management body, that is to say, the Board of Directors. The Executive Committee is composed of the President, Vice President I, Vice President II and a Director. The Executive Committee evaluates the business based on the differences in the nature of its products, operations and risks. The amount reported for each segment item is the measure reported to the Executive Committee and subsequently informed for these purposes to the top management body that is the Group's Board of Directors.

5.
Segment information (Continued)

Operating segments identified are disclosed as reportable segments if they meet any of the following quantitative thresholds:

·  
The operating segment’s reported revenue, including both sales to external customers and inter-segment sales or transfers, is ten per cent or more of the combined revenue, internal and external, of all operating segments;

·  
The absolute amount of its reported profit or loss is ten per cent or more of the greater, in absolute amount, of:

o  
the combined reported profit of all operating segments that do not report a loss; and

o  
the combined reported loss of all operating segments that report a loss.

·  
Its assets are 10% or more of the combined assets of all operating segments.

As well as this, the operating segments that do not meet any of the quantitative thresholds can be considered as reportable segments if the management estimates that this information could be useful for the users of the financial statements.

If, after determining reportable segments in accordance with the preceding quantitative thresholds, the total external revenue attributable to those segments amounts to less than 75% of the total Group’s consolidated external revenue, additional segments are identified as reportable segments, even if they do not meet the thresholds described above, until at least 75% of the Group’s consolidated external revenue is included in reportable segments. Once the 75% of the Group’s consolidated external revenue is included in reportable segments, the remaining operating segments are aggregated in the ‘All other segments’ column.

Segment information(Continued)

The shopping center properties of the Group are all located in Argentina, the country of domicile of the Group. The Group’s offices and other non-retail properties are all located in Argentina. The Group’s trading properties are also located in Argentina. Both office buildings located in the United States belonging to the Group’s associates are disclosed in the “International” column. The Group’s hotels are also located in Argentina. The Group’s trading properties are located in Argentina and Uruguay. Operating results of the Cyrsa, Nuevo Puerto Santa Fe, Canteras Natal Crespo, Baicom Networks and Quality Invest joint ventures operations have been presented under the method of proportionate consolidation.

Under this method, the income/loss generated by joint businesses is reported in the income statements line-by-line, rather than in a single item as required by IFRS. Management believes that the proportional consolidation method provides more useful information to understand the business return, because the assets and income/loss generated by consolidated operations are similar to the assets and income/loss booked under the equity method. This is due to the fact that under the proportional consolidation method, revenues and expenses are reported separately, instead of offsetting and reporting them as a single item in the statement of income. Therefore, the proportional consolidation method is used by the CODM to assess and understand the return and the results of operations of the business as a whole.

The CODM evaluates performance of business segments based on segment profit. The accounting principles applied for the reporting of segment information are the same as the ones used for the preparation of the consolidated financial statements, except for the Group’s share of profit or loss of joint ventures as discussed in the segment tables above. Revenue generated and goods and services exchanged between segments are calculated on the basis of market prices. Intercompany transactions between segments, if any, are eliminated.

The CODM evaluates performance of business segments based on segment profit, defined as profit or loss from operations before financing and taxation. The measurement principles for the Group’s segment reporting structure are based on the IFRS principles adopted in the consolidated financial statements, except for the Group’s share of profit or loss of joint ventures as discussed in the segment tables above. Revenue generated and goods and services exchanged between segments are calculated on the basis of market prices. Intercompany transactions between segments, if any, are eliminated.

           The following tables present a reconciliation between the total results of operations of segment information and the results of operations as per the statements of income. The adjustments are related to the presentation of the results of operations of the joint ventures on an equity-accounted basis according to IFRS and statements of income purposes.

Canteras

On April 8, 2011, Canteras granted to Caminos de las Sierras S.A. (“Caminos”) an occupation permit and the possession over a piece of land of approximately 8,250 square meters on Road E-55 in the Province of Córdoba. Caminos is an unrelated third-party toll road operator which was granted a concession from the government of the Province of Cordoba to construct and operate a toll road. In order to affect the land entirely to the construction works, the Provincial Government of Cordoba will expropriate the land according to the Provincial expropriation laws. Caminos is responsible to fulfill all requirements of the law. The appraisal of the land will be in charge of the Provincial General Appraiser. As compensation, Caminos will pay Canteras the appraised amount plus 10%, of which Ps. 0.8 million were received as of June 30, 2011. Any remaining difference will be paid by Caminos within 90 days as from the resolution of the Provincial General Appraiser. If the final appraisal is lower than the amount received by Canteras, the difference will be deemed compensatory damages in favor of Canteras and no moneys have to be returned.

Puerto Retiro

In a series of transactions, which occurred between 1999 and 2000, IRSA acquired from an unrelated party, 50% of Puerto Retiro, whose sole asset is an undeveloped parcel of land in the Retiro neighborhood, City of Buenos Aires. Prior to the acquisition, Puerto Retiro had acquired land from Tandanor S.A. (“Tandanor”), a formerly state-owned entity, which had been acquired by Inversora Dársena Norte S.A. (“Indarsa”) in 1991 through a privatization process. The Argentine Government sustained Indarsa had not settled the outstanding balance of the purchase price of Tandanor, and as a result petitioned the bankruptcy of Indarsa. Since the sole asset of Indarsa was its ownership interest in Tandanor, the Argentine Government was seeking to extend the bankruptcy procedures to any company or individual which, according to its view, acted as a group, and therefore, in this process requested the bankruptcy of Puerto Retiro and other companies and individuals. In this connection, the bankruptcy court for the Buenos Aires District issued an order restraining the ability of Puerto Retiro to sell or dispose in any manner the land acquired from Tandanor. Since 2001, IRSA has been vigorously defending against this case. Management with the advice of legal counsel believes that the Group has sufficient meritorious defenses to support the court denial for bankruptcy petition. However, there can be no assurance that the Group’s position will be sustained.

The assets have been mortgaged securing the debt. Nobleza sold the plant as part of its plan of relocating its operations.

The CNDC stated that there was an obligation to notify the situation, but the Company filed an appeal against this decision. As of June 30, 2012, the resolution of the appeal is pending.

Liabilities carried at amortized cost also include liabilities under finance leases where the Group is the lessee and which therefore have to be measured in accordance with IAS 17 “Leases”. The categories disclosed are determined by reference to IFRS 9. Finance leases are excluded from the scope of IFRS 7 “Financial Instruments: Disclosures”. Therefore, finance leases have been shown separately.

Determination of fair values

IFRS 9 defines the fair value of a financial instrument as the amount for which a financial asset could be exchanged, or a financial liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm’s length transaction. All financial instruments recognized at fair value are allocated to one of the valuation hierarchy levels of IFRS 7. This valuation hierarchy provides for three levels. The initial basis for the allocation is the “economic investment class”. Only if this does not result in an appropriate allocation the Group deviates from such an approach in individual cases. The allocation reflects which of the fair values derive from transactions in the market and where valuation is based on models because market transactions are lacking.

 Financial instruments by category (Continued)

In the case of Level 1, valuation is based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical financial assets or liabilities that the Group can refer to at the date of the statements of financial position. A market is deemed active if transactions take place with sufficient frequency and in sufficient quantity for price information to be available on an ongoing basis. Since a quoted price in an active market is the most reliable indicator of fair value, this should always be used if available. The financial instruments the Group has allocated to this level mainly comprise equity investments, mutual funds, mortgage bonds and government bonds for which quoted prices in active markets are available. In the case of shares, the Group allocates them to this level when either a stock market price is available or prices are provided by a price quotation on the basis of actual market transactions.

In the case of Level 2, fair value is determined by using valuation methods based on inputs directly or indirectly observable in the market. If the financial instrument concerned has a fixed contract period, the inputs used for valuation must be observable for the whole of this period. The financial instruments the Group has allocated to this level mainly comprise contracts held in foreign currency.

In the case of Level 3, the Group uses valuation techniques not based on inputs observable in the market. This is only permissible insofar as no observable market data are available. The inputs used reflect the Group’s assumptions regarding the factors which market players would consider in their pricing. The Group uses the best available information for this, including internal company data. The financial instruments the Group has allocated to this level mainly comprise call options and embedded derivatives on borrowings.

The following tables present the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair value as of June 30, 2012 and July 1, 2011 and their allocation to the fair value hierarchy:

Leases and services receivables from investment properties:

Trade receivables related to leases and services from the shopping center, office and other rental properties customers and farmland properties represent 91.7%, and 72.3% of the Group’s total trade receivables as of June 30, 2012 and July 1, 2011, respectively. The Group has a large customer base and is not dependent on any single customer.

As of June 30, 2012, the Group provided for losses with respect to leases and services receivables for an amount of Ps.12,142.

As of June 30, 2012 and July 1, 2011, leases and services receivables that are not due and for which no allowance has been recorded relate to a wide and varied number of customers for whom there is no external credit rating available. Most of these customers have reached a minimum period of six months and have no previous non-compliance records. New customers with less than six months are regularly monitored. To date, the Group has not experience credit issues with these new customers.

Consumer financing receivables:

 Trade receivables related to the residual consumer loan and credit card origination activities of the Group represent only 3.6 % and 18.4 % of the Group’s total trade receivables as of June 30, 2012 and July 1, 2011, respectively.

As of June 30, 2012, the Group recognized a recovery of loss for provision of doubtful accounts for an amount of Ps. 3,417.

Receivables from the sale of properties:

Trade receivables related to the sale of properties represent 4.7% and 9.3% of the Group’s total trade receivables as of June 30, 2012, and July 1, 2011, respectively. Payments on these receivables have generally been received when due. These receivables are generally secured by mortgages on the properties. The credit risk on outstanding amounts is considered low.

Provisions

The Group is subject to several Argentine laws, regulations and business practices. In the ordinary course of business, the Group is subject to certain contingent liabilities with respect to existing or potential claims, lawsuits and other proceedings, including those involving tax, labor and social security, administrative and civil and other matters. The Group accrues liabilities when it is probable that future costs will be incurred and it can reasonably estimate them. The Group bases its accruals on up-to-date developments, estimates of the outcomes of the matters and legal counsel experience in contesting, litigating and settling matters. As the scope of the liabilities becomes better defined or more information is available, the Group may be required to change its estimates of future costs, which could have a material effect on its results of operations and financial condition or liquidity.

See changes in Group’s provisions in Note 20 to the Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

 Borrowings (Continued)

As part of the expanded program, on July 20, 2010, IRSA issued US$ 150 million nominal 11.5 percent non-convertible notes raising US$ 142.9 million after costs.

            IRSA NCN due 2017 and IRSA NCN due 2020 both contain certain customary covenants and restrictions, including amount others, limitations for the incurrence of additional indebtedness, restricted payments, disposal of assets, and entering into certain transactions with related companies.

            Under the NCN indentures, IRSA is permitted to incur additional indebtedness provided its coverage of consolidated interest ratio is higher than 1.75. The coverage of consolidated interest ratio is defined as consolidated EBITDA divided by consolidated interest expense, subject to certain adjustments. EBITDA is defined as operating income plus, depreciation and amortization and certain other consolidated non-cash charges. The Group was in compliance with these covenants as of June 30, 2012.

Restricted payments include restrictions for payment of dividends and other outflows relating to prepayments of indebtedness or to acquisition of certain investments. These restricted payments could not be made in excess of the sum of:

(i)  
50% of IRSA’s cumulative consolidated net income; or 75% of IRSA’s cumulative consolidated net income if the coverage of consolidated interest ratio is at least 3.0 to 1; or 100% of IRSA’s cumulative consolidated net income if the coverage of consolidated interest ratio is at least 4.0 to 1;
(ii)  
net cash proceeds from new capital contributions;

(a) APSA Convertible Notes (“CN”) due 2014 (“2014 convertible notes”)

On July 19, 2002, APSA issued US$ 50 million nominal 10.0% Series I convertible notes raising US$ 50 million after costs. The notes are due July 2014 and principal is paid at maturity. At the time of issue, the holders of the 2014 convertible notes had the option to convert their notes into ordinary shares at any time on or up to 30 days prior to the maturity of the principal at a conversion price per ordinary share being the higher of (i) the nominal per share value (Ps. 0.1 each) divided by the US$/Peso exchange rate at the time of conversion, and (ii) US$ 0.0324, a conversion rate of approximately 30,864 ordinary shares for every US$ 1 nominal of 2014 convertible notes.

The 2014 convertible notes were approved for issuance by the Ordinary and Extraordinary Meeting of Shareholders held on December 4, 2001, approved by Resolution No. 14,196 of the Comisión Nacional de Valores dated March 15, 2002 and authorized to list for trading on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange on July 8, 2002.

The holders of 2014 convertible notes are entitled to receive dividends declared on any date after the date of conversion.

On October 7, 2010, US$ 15.5 million of 2014 convertible notes representing 33% of the notes outstanding on June 30, 2010 converted into 477,544,197 new ordinary shares. On September 21, 2011, a holder converted US$ 0.009 million into 277,777 new ordinary shares.

Foreign currency denominated convertible debt that is settled by delivering a fixed number of the issuing entity own equity instruments in exchange for a fixed amount of foreign currency is classified in its entirety as a financial liability. The conversion option is an embedded derivative not closely related to the debt host contract, therefore, it is accounted for separately as a derivative instrument and measured at fair value at initial recognition and at the end of each reporting period. The derivative instrument has a fair value of zero for all periods presented.


(b) APSA NCN Series I due 2017 and Series II due 2012

           On May 11, 2007, APSA issued an aggregate of US$ 170 million in two parts. One of the series (Series I) consists of US$ 120 million 7.87% rate notes due May 2017 while the other (Series II) comprises Ps. 154.0 million (equivalent to US$ 50 million) 11.0% rate notes due in June 2012. Interest on the Series I is payable on May 11 and November 11 of each year as from November 11, 2007 with principal due on May, 2017. Interest on the Series II is payable on June 11 and December 11 of each year as from December 11, 2007, with principal due in seven equal and consecutive semi-annual installments as from June 11, 2009. As of June 30, 2012, Series II is completely cancelled.

          These issuances were part of a global issuance program of notes for a nominal value of up to US$ 200 million authorized by Resolution No. 15,614 of the Comisión Nacional de Valores dated April 19, 2007. On October 29, 2009, the Ordinary and Extraordinary Meeting of Shareholders expanded the amount to up to US$ 400 million.

          At the time of issue, CRESUD together with the Society, were the principal bondholders of both series of notes. During fiscal years 2008, 2009 and 2011, APSA repurchased US$ 4.8 million of Series II. During October 2010, IRSA sold its notes to third parties at a total price of US$ 38.1.

As of June 30, 2012, outstanding NCN Series I is held by third parties to the Group.

APSA NCN Series I due 2017 and Series II due 2012 contain certain covenants, events of default and restrictions, as well as limitations on additional indebtedness, transactions with affiliates, mergers and disposal of assets. For additional indebtedness APSA is required to comply with the financial ratio “coverage of consolidated interest”, which should be higher than 1.75. The coverage of consolidated interest ratio is defined as consolidated EBITDA divided by consolidated interest expense, subject to certain adjustments. EBITDA is defined as operating income plus, depreciation and amortization and certain other consolidated non-cash charges. The Group was in compliance with these covenants as of July 1, 2011.

Current and Deferred Income Tax

The Group’s income tax has been calculated on the estimated taxable profit for the year at the rates prevailing in the respective tax jurisdictions. The subsidiaries of the Group in the jurisdictions where the Group operates are required to calculate their income taxes on a separate basis; thus, they are not permitted to compensate subsidiaries’ losses against subsidiaries income.

The details of the provision for the Group’s income tax are as follows:

      06.30.2012  
Current income tax

    90,152  
Income tax expense                                                                                        
    (111,013 )

The statutory tax rate in the countries where the Group operates for all of the years presented are:

(i)     Includes: Investment properties, properties, plant and equipment and trading properties.

Deferred income tax assets are recognized for tax loss carry-forwards to the extent that the realization of the related tax benefits through future taxable profits is probable. Tax loss carry-forwards may have expiration dates or may be permanently available for use by the Group depending on the tax jurisdiction where the tax loss carry forward is generated. Tax loss carry forwards in Argentina and Uruguay generally expire within 5 years.

In order to fully realize the deferred tax asset, the Group will need to generate future taxable income in the countries where the net operating losses were incurred. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes that as at June 30, 2012, it is probable that the Group will realize all of the deferred tax assets.

 Current and Deferred Income Tax (Continued)

As of June 30, IRSA and its subsidiaries own tax loss carry-forwards for Ps. 344,499 due 2017.

The Group did not recognize deferred income tax assets of Ps. 48.9 million and Ps. 11.4 million as of June 30, 2012 and July 1, 2011, respectively. Although management believes that it will become profitable in the foreseeable future, as a result of the history of recent losses incurred during the development phase of the different Group’s business operations and the lack of verifiable and objective evidence due to the limited operating history of the Group itself, the Board of Directors has determined that there is sufficient uncertainty as to the generation of sufficient income to utilize the losses within a reasonable timeframe, therefore, no deferred tax asset is recognized in relation to these losses.

Below is a reconciliation between income tax expense and the tax calculated applying the current tax rate to profits before taxes, for the year ended on June 30, 2012:

      06.30.2012  
Net income at tax rate

Tenants are charged a rent which is the higher of (i) the base rent; and (ii) complementary rent (which generally ranges between 4% and 10% of the tenants’ sales). Furthermore, pursuant to the rent escalation clause in most lease arrangements, the tenants’ base rent generally increases between 7% and 12% each year during the lease term. Since the rent is not known until the end of the period, these lease agreements meet the definition of contingent rent under IAS 17 "Leases". Accordingly, rental income will be recognized once the contingent rent is known and the payment is received.

For the year ended June 30, 2012, contingent rent amounted to Ps. 211,937, and averaging rent amounted to Ps. 26,823, and they are included within “Revenues” in the statements of income.
 
Additionally, the Group owns a shopping center property known as "Patio Olmos" in the Province of Córdoba, Argentina. The Group leases this property to a third party shopping center operator under an operating lease agreement expiring in 2032. The lease provides for fixed monthly payments, adjusted pursuant to a rent escalation clause. Rental income for the year ended June 30, 2012 amounted to Ps. 178 and is included in the line item "Revenues" in the statements of income.

Finance leases:

The Group does not act as a lessor in connection with finance leases.

Shareholders’ Equity

Share capital and premium

The share capital of the Group is represented by common shares with a nominal value of Ps. 1 per share and one vote each. The movements in the capital accounts as of June 30, 2012 are as follows:

Inflation adjustment of share capital

Under Argentine GAAP, the Group’s financial statements were previously prepared on the basis of general price-level accounting which reflected changes in the purchase price of the Argentine Peso in the historical financial statements through February 28, 2003. The inflation adjustment related to share capital was appropriated to an inflation adjustment reserve that formed part of shareholders' equity. The balance of this reserve could be applied only towards the issuance of common stock to shareholders of the Company. Resolution 592/11 of the CNV requires that at the transition date to IFRS certain equity accounts, such as the inflation adjustment reserve, are not adjusted and are considered an integral part of share capital.

Legal reserves

According to the laws of certain of the countries in which the Group operates, 5% of the profit of the year is separated to constitute legal reserves until they reach legal capped amounts (20% of total capital). These legal reserves are not available for dividend distribution and can only be released to absorb losses. The Group’s subsidiaries have not reached the legal capped amounts.

Other reserves

The Company and subsidiaries may separate portions of their profits of the year to constitute voluntary reserves according to company law and practice. These special reserves may be for general purposes or for specific uses such as new developments. The voluntary reserves may be released for dividend distribution.

The transaction was subject to certain precedent conditions including the completion by TGLT of its initial public offering. The transaction was agreed upon at US$ 18.8 million.

TGLT paid US$ 10.7 million on November 5, 2010. On December 16, 2010, the title deed to the Beruti plot of land was executed. To secure performance of obligations assumed by TGLT S.A. under the deed of sale, a mortgage was granted in favor of APSA.

1.  
General information and Company’s Business

IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones Sociedad Anónima (“IRSA” or the “Company”) was founded in 1943, primarily engaged in administering real estate holdings in Argentina since 1991.

IRSA is a corporation incorporated and domiciled in the Republic of Argentina. The address of its registered office is Moreno 877, 23rd Floor, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
 
These Unaudited Condensed Interim Separate Financial Statements have been approved for issue by the Board of Directors on November 19, 2012.

2.  
Basis of preparation and adoption of Technical Resolution No. 26 (“RT 26”)

2.1.
Basis of preparation and transition to RT 26

The National Securities Commission, (“CNV”, as per its Spanish acronym), through General Resolutions No. 562/9 and 576/10, has provided for the application of Technical Resolutions No. 26 and 29 of the Argentine Federation of Professional Councils of Economic Sciences (“FACPCE”, as per its Spanish acronym), which adopt the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), for companies subject to the public offering regime ruled by Law 17,811, due to the listing of their shares or corporate notes, and for entities that have applied for authorization to be listed under the mentioned regime.

The Company is required to adopt IFRS as from the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2012, being these financial statements the first interim financial statements for the three-month periods prepared under IFRS. The Company’s transition date for the adoption of IFRS as difined by IFRS 1, First time adoption of IFRS, is July 1, 2011.

The Unaudited Condensed Interim Separate Financial Statements of the Company for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 have been prepared in accordance with RT 26 of FACPCE, adopted by CNV. This Technical Resolution differs from International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” issued by IASB, in reference to the accounting measurement criteria of the investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates, which are accounted for under the equity method described by IAS 28 “Investments in Associates”. This criterion differs from the provisions of paragraph 38 of IAS 27 “Separate Financial Statements”, whereby such investments are measured at cost or fair value.

2.  
Basis of preparation and adoption of Technical Resolution No. 26 (“RT 26”) (Continued)

The Unaudited Condensed Interim Separate Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies that the Company expects to adopt in its annual consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2013. The accounting policies are based on IFRS issued by the IASB and the interpretations issued by the IFRS Interpretation Committee (“IFRIC”) that the Company expects to become applicable on such date.

The separate financial statements of the Company were prepared in accordance with the Argentine accounting standards (Argentine GAAP) in force, which differ from IFRS in some areas. To prepare these Unaudited Condensed Interim Separate Financial Statements, the Management of the Company has modified certain valuation and presentation accounting policies that were previously applied under Argentine accounting standards in order comply with the IFRS.

Comparative figures and figures as of the transition date (July 1, 2011) have been modified to reflect such adjustments. The notes below include a reconciliation of shareholders’ equity of separate financial statements prepared in accordance with the Argentine GAAP on the transition date (July 1, 2011), on the adoption date (June 30, 2012) and on the closing date of the comparative period (September 30, 2011) and the statement of income and other comprehensive income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 and for the three-month period ended September 30, 2011, and those presented in accordance with RT 26 in these Unaudited Condensed Interim Separate Financial Statements, as well as the effects of the adjustments to cash flow.

These Unaudited Condensed Interim Separate Financial Statements should not be read together with the annual financial statements of the Company as of June 30, 2012 prepared in accordance with Argentine GAAP in force. Exhibit I presents additional information as of June 30, 2012 and July 1, 2011 under IFRS which is considered necessary to understand these Condensed Interim Separate Financial Statements. The Unaudited Condensed Interim Separate Financial Statements are presented in Argentine Pesos.

Unaudited Condensed Interim Separate Financial Statements corresponding to the three-month periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 have not been audited. The Company’s management believes they include all necessary adjustments to fairly present the results of each period. The Company’s three-month periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 results do not necessarily reflect the proportion of the Company’s full-year results.

The format of the primary financial statements under Argentine GAAP is governed by Technical Resolutions 8 and 9 of the FACPCE and Resolutions of the CNV. IAS 1, “Presentation of Financial Statements” requires certain disclosures to be made on the face of the primary statements and other required disclosures may be made in the notes of the financial statements, unless another standard specifies otherwise. The transition to Technical Resolutions No. 26 has resulted in the Company changing the format of its Statement of Income, Statement of Financial Position and Statement of Cash Flows, as well as the disclosure of certain line items not prescribed by Argentine GAAP.

2.2. 
Initial elections upon adoption of RT N° 26

Optional and mandatory exemptions of IFRS

As a general rule, the Company is required to establish its IFRS accounting policies for the year ended June 30, 2013 and apply these retrospectively. However, advantage has been taken of certain exemptions and exceptions afforded by IFRS 1.

In Note 2.2. to the Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company indicates the exemptions and exceptions that are applicable in IFRS 1 and that have been applied in the transition from Argentine GAAP to RT 26.

2.3.
Reconciliations of Argentine GAAP to Technical Resolution No. 26 (“RT 26”)

In accordance with the requirements of Technical Resolution No. 26 and No. 29 of FACPCE, set out below are the reconciliations of shareholders’ equity in accordance with Argentine GAAP and RT 26 at June 30, 2012, at September 30, 2011 and July 1, 2011, and the reconciliations of income, comprehensive income and cash flows for the year ended June 30, 2012 and for the three-month period ended September 30, 2011. The reconciliations included below were prepared based on the IFRS standards that are estimated to be applicable for the Company for the financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2013. The items and amounts in the reconciliations included below are subject to change and should only be deemed final when the consolidated financial statements prepared under RT 26 for the first time as of and for the year ended June 30, 2013 are issued.

The items and amounts included in the reconciliations could be modified to the extent that, when preparing financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2013, applicable standards are different.

The first reconciliation provides an overview of the impact on equity of the transition at July 1, 2011, at September 30, 2011 and June 30, 2012 (Note 2.3.1). The second reconciliation provides an overview of the impact on income for the period ended September 30, 2011 and June 30, 2012 (Note 2.3.1).  The third reconciliation provides an overview of the impact on comprehensive income at September 30, 2011 and June 30, 2012 (Note 2.3.1).

2.3.10. 
Explanation of the transition to RT 26

Column I in the tables on pages 12 to 20 represents the Argentine GAAP balances prior to transition as published in the latest Company’s Argentine GAAP financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2012 compared to July 1, 2011 and in the financial statements of the Company prepared under Argentine GAAP as of and for the three-month period ended September 30, 2011. However, certain reclassifications and/or groupings have already been made in Column I to avoid lengthy explanations of certain format changes introduced in these first financial statements according to RT 26. The following changes have been made to the previous Argentine GAAP statement of financial position included in Column I:

(1)  
The line items “Trade receivables” and “Other receivables” have been grouped into the new line item “Trade and other receivables”,

(2)  
The line items “Trade payables”, “Customer advances”, “Taxes payable” and “Other liabilities” have been also grouped into the new line item “Trade and other payables”, with the exception of  income tax, deferred income taxes and derivative financial instruments which have been shown separately.

(3)  
Goodwill which was previously disclosed separately offsetting negative goodwill has been included as part of “Intangible assets”.

(4)  
Cash equivalents previously disclosed as part of the line item current investments have been grouped together with cash and banks, and the resulting line renamed “Cash and cash equivalents”.

(5)  
Derivative financial instruments which were previously included as part of the non-current line items “Other receivables”, “Other payables” and/ or “Non-current investments” have been disclosed as separate assets or liabilities as appropriate.

 
(6)  
Investments in associates previously included as part of “Non-current investments” have been separately disclosed in the new line item “Investments in associates and joint ventures”.

 
(7)  
Investments in subsidiaries previously included as part of “Non-current investments” have been separately disclosed in the new line item “Investments in subsidiaries”.

2.3.10.
 Explanation of the transition to RT 26 (Continued)

The following changes have been made to the statement of comprehensive income for the year ended June 30, 2012 and for the three-months periods ended September 30, 2011:

(1)  
The format of the income statement has been restructured to simplify its reading. To that effect, all revenue streams of the Company which were previously disclosed separately (i.e. sale of development properties, leases and services revenue), together with its corresponding costs of sales, have been aggregated into two line items titled "Revenues" and "Costs" in Column I. Revenues and Costs are then cross-referenced to respective notes in the financial statements where a detailed breakdown is provided per line of business.

(2)  
According to Argentine GAAP, the share of losses and profits from subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates is shown after the financial results. Likewise, under IFRSs, the share of profits and losses from subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates is generally shown after the financial results. However, where subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are an integral vehicle to carry out the Company’s operations, it is more adequate to show the share of profits and losses of associates and joint ventures before financial results. In accordance with its strategy, the Company conducts its operations through controlled companies or joint ventures. Therefore, under RT 26, the Company shows the profits or losses from subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures before the financial results. For simplicity, the share of profits and losses from associates is shown before financial results, in Column I.

(3)  
According to Argentine GAAP, the financial results are separated between those generated by assets from those generated by liabilities. According to RT 26, the Company adopted the policy based on showing the finance income and the finance costs separately in the statement of income. In order to simplify the explanations, the Company reclassified the accounts according to Argentine GAAP presented in the captions “Financial results generated by assets” and “Financial results generated by liabilities” to “Finance Income” and “Finance Cost”, respectively, in Column I.

 
(4)  
According to RT 26, income and expense items not recognized in the statement of income (that is, exchange differences related to translation of foreign businesses) are shown in the statement of comprehensive income as “Other comprehensive income”. According to Argentine GAAP in force, the statement of comprehensive income is not mandatory and, therefore, such items are recognized as part of shareholders’ equity, in a separate reserve account.  For simplicity, these items are shown in “Other comprehensive income” in Column I.

 Reclassifications (Column II)

Reclassifications affecting the statement of financial position

The column titled “Reclassifications” reflects the various differences in disclosure and format between the statement of financial position according to Argentine GAAP and RT 26.

 2.3.10.1
 Reclassifications (Column II) (Continued)

Reclassifications affecting the statement of cash flows for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2011 and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012.

Under Argentine GAAP, the effect of changes in exchange rate of cash and cash equivalents were shown as operating activities and were not presented as a forth category in the statement of cash flow, as RT 26 required.
 
Additionally, pursuant to Argentine GAAP, proceeds derived from sale of property, plant and equipment (including properties classified as investment properties under Technical Resolution 26) were reported as operating activities. In accordance with RT 26, proceeds derived from sale of investment properties and property, plant and equipment is reported as investment activities.

Finally, according to Argentine GAAP, the acquisition of non-controlling interests was reported as investing activities, while under RT 26 it must be reported as cash from financing activities.
 
Thus, cash flows generated by or used in operating, investing and financing activities were different in the statement of cash flow prepared under Argentine GAAP.

 2.3.10.2
 Measurement adjustments (Column III)

Argentine GAAP differs in certain significant respects from RT 26. Such differences involve methods of measuring the amounts shown in the consolidated financial statements, as further described below:

(A)  
Foreign currency translation

As noted in the section titled “IFRS exemption options”, the Company has applied the one-time exemption to set the foreign currency cumulative translation adjustment (“CTA”) to zero as of July 1, 2011. The CTA balance as at July 1, 2011 of Ps. 34.1 million was recognized as an adjustment to retained earnings.
 
(B)  
Revenue recognition – “scheduled rent increases”

The adjustment is consistent with the one described in Note 2.3.10.3 to the Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statement.

Argentine GAAP - Investment in entities in which the Company exercises control, are accounted for under equity method. Under this method, the investment is recognized at its original cost and periodically increased (decreased) for the investor share in profits (loss) of the subsidiary, and decreased by dividends received from the subsidiary. The Company applies its share to the financial statements of its investments booked under the equity method, prepared in accordance with Argentine GAAP.

As of July 1, 2011, and June 30, 2012, the subsidiaries of the Company are those detailed in Note 1 a. to the consolidated financial statements.
 
RT 26 – The Company has assessed all of its interests in the companies indicated in the preceding paragraph and has determined that it exercises control over all of them. Consequently, under RT 26, the Company also accounts for such investments under the equity method. Nevertheless, the Company has assessed the impact of adjustments to RT 26 to financial statements of such entities prepared under the Argentine accounting standards in force, before the application of the equity method.
 

In Notes 2.3.1.10.3 to the Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, there is a description of the most significant adjustments to the shareholders’ equity and profit of loss of subsidiaries, as per RT 26.

Exhibit I - Notes to the Unaudited Separate FinancialStatements (Continued)
(All amounts in thousands of Argentine Pesos, except shares and per share data and as otherwise indicated)
Free translation from the original prepared in Spanish for publication in Argentina


The present condensed interim separate financial statements should be read along with Exhibit I. This Exhibit contains a detailed presentation of the additional information required by IFRS as of June 30, 2012 and July 1, 2011, which is necessary for understanding the present condensed interim separate financial statements and for making it possible for them to be presented in condensed form pursuant to IFRS 34.

1.  
Most relevant accounting policies

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these Financial Statements are set out in Exhibit I to the Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

2.  
Acquisitions and disposals

See Note 2 of Exhibit I to the Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for information of acquisitions and disposals for the year ended June 30, 2012.

3.  
Financial Risk Management

Risk management principles and processes

The risk management function within the Company is carried out in respect of financial risks. Financial risk comprises market risk (including foreign currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk), credit risk, liquidity risk and capital risk.

See description of risk management principles, policies and procedures in Note 3 of Exhibit I to the Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

(a)  
Market risk management

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. The Company’s market risks arise from open positions in foreign currencies, interest-bearing assets and liabilities and equity securities price risks, to the extent that these are exposed to general and specific market movements. The Company sets limits on the exposure to these risks that may be accepted, which are monitored on a regular basis.

Sensitivities to market risks included below are based on a change in one factor while holding all other factors constant. In practice this is unlikely to occur, and changes in some of the factors may be correlated – for example, changes in interest rate and changes in foreign currency rates.

See details from Market risk management in Note 3 of Exhibit I to Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

3. 
Financial risk management (Continued)

Foreign exchange risk:

The Company issues its financial statements in Argentine Pesos and conducts business in many foreign currencies. As a result, the Company is subject to foreign currency exchange risk. Foreign exchange risk arises when future commercial transactions or recognized assets or liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the entity’s functional currency.

The activities of the Company are primarily located in Argentina where the Argentine Peso is the functional currency. However, in the ordinary course of business, the Company transacts in currencies other than the respective functional currencies, primarily in US dollars. Net financial position exposure to the US dollar is managed on a case-by-case basis, partly by entering into foreign currency derivative instruments and/or by borrowing in foreign currencies. Exposure to other foreign currencies has not been significant to date.

As of June 30, 2012, the total net book value of the Company’s instruments expressed in dollars amounts to Ps.1,234,927 (liability). The Company estimates that, all other factors being constant, a 10% appreciation of the US dollar would reduce profits before taxes by Ps. 123,492 for fiscal year ended June 30, 2012. A 10% depreciation of the US dollar would have an equal and opposite effect in the income statement.

This sensitivity analysis provides only a limited, point-in-time view of the foreign exchange risk sensitivity of certain of the Company’s financial instruments. The actual impact of the foreign currency rate changes on the Company’s financial instruments may differ significantly from the impact shown in the sensitivity analysis.

Otherwise, the Company uses derivatives, such as forward exchange contracts, to manage its exposure to foreign currency risk.

Interest rate risk:

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its investments in debt instruments, short-term and long-term borrowings and derivative financial instruments.

The primary objective of the Company’s investment activities is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing yields without significantly increasing risk. To achieve this objective, the Company diversifies its portfolio in accordance with the limits set by the Company. The Company maintains a portfolio of cash equivalents and short-term investments in a variety of securities, including both government and corporate obligations and money market funds. As stated in Note 3 to Exhibit I to these Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, investments in fixed rate and floating rate instruments generate several interest rate risks. As the Company’s interest-bearing assets do not generate significant amounts of interest, changes in market interest rates do not have any significant direct effect on the Company’s income.

3. 
Financial risk management (Continued)

The Company’s interest rate risk principally arises from long-term borrowings (Note 25). Borrowings issued at floating rates expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk. Borrowings issued at fixed rates expose the Company to fair value interest rate risk.

The following tables show a breakdown of the Company’s fixed-rate and floating-rate borrowings (excluding finance leases). All amounts are shown in thousands of Argentine Pesos, the Company’s presentation currency:

    1,586,815  
Subtotal fixed-rate borrowings                                                                              
    1,617,150  
Floating rate:

    347,935

Finance leases                                                                            
    210  
Total Borrowings in the statement of financial position
    2,001,984  

The Company estimates that, all other factors being constant, a 1% increase in the floating interest rate at the end of the fiscal year would reduce profits before taxes by Ps. 3,815 for fiscal year ended June 30, 2012. A 1% decrease in the floating interest rate would have an equal and opposite effect in the income statement.

This sensitivity analysis provides only a limited, point-in-time view of the interest risk sensitivity of certain of the Company’s financial instruments. The actual impact of the interest rate changes on the Company’s financial instruments may differ significantly from the impact shown in the sensitivity analysis.

Other price risk

The Company is exposed to equity securities price risk because of equity investments or derivative financial instruments in public companies, which were classified on the statement of financial position at “fair value through profit or loss”.

3. 
Financial risk management (Continued)

As of June 30, 2012, the total value of the Company’s equity investments of public companies (TGLT) amounts to Ps. 31,558. The company estimates that, all other factors being constant, a 10% decrease in the prices of equity securities would reduce profits before taxes by Ps. 3,156 million for fiscal year ended June 30, 2012. A 10% increase in the prices of equity securities would have an equal and opposite effect in the income statement.

This sensitivity analysis provides only a limited, point-in-time view of the price risk sensitivity of certain of the Company’s financial instruments. The actual impact of the interest rate changes on the Company’s financial instruments may differ significantly from the impact shown in the sensitivity analysis.

(b)  
Credit risk management

Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in a financial loss to the Company.

The Company is subject to credit risk arising from outstanding receivables, cash and cash equivalents and deposits with banks and financial institutions, investments of surplus cash balances, and from the use of derivative financial instruments.

See details from Credit risk management in Note 3 (b) of Exhibit I to Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

According to the Company’s policy, the Company places its cash and cash equivalents, investments, and other financial instruments with various high credit quality financial institutions, thus mitigating the amount of credit exposure to any one institution. The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments in the statement of financial position (see details in Note 15).

The Company’s policy is to manage credit exposure to trade and other receivables within defined trading limits. All of the Company’s significant counterparties are assigned internal credit limits.Trade receivables from investment and development property activities are primarily derived from leases and services from shopping centers, office and other rental properties; receivables from the sale of trading properties and investment properties (mainly undeveloped land and non-retail rental properties).The Company does not expect any significant losses resulting from the non-performance of any counterpart to the lease contracts.The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of this receivables in the statement of financial position after deducting any impairment allowance (see Note 12).

Financial risk management (Continued)

(c)  
Liquidity risk management

The Company is exposed to liquidity risks, including risks associated with refinancing borrowings as they mature the risk that borrowing facilities are not available to meet cash requirements, and the risk that financial assets cannot readily be converted to cash without loss of value.

See details from Financial risk management in Note 3 (c) of Exhibit I to Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

The tables below analyze the Company’s non-derivative financial liabilities and derivative financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings. The amounts disclosed in the tables are the contractual undiscounted cash flows and as a result, they do not reconcile to the amounts disclosed on the statement of financial position. However, undiscounted cash flows in respect of balances due within 12 months generally equal their carrying amounts in the statement of financial position, as the impact of discounting is not significant. The tables include both interest and principal flows. Where the interest payable is not fixed, the amount disclosed has been determined by reference to the projected interest rates implied by yield curves at the reporting date.

d)  
Capital risk management

The capital structure of the Company consists of shareholders’ equity and net borrowings. The type and maturity of the Company’s borrowings are analyzed further in Note 18 and the Company’s equity is analyzed into its various components in the statement of changes in shareholders’ equity.

See details from capital risk management in Note 3 (d) of Exhibit I to Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

The following table details a number of the Company’s key metrics in relation to managing its capital structure. The ratios are within the ranges established by the Company’s strategy:

      06.30.2012       07.01.2011  
Gearing ratio (i)                                                                
    43.04 %     39.87 %
Debt ratio (ii)                                                                
    222.64 %     194.91 %

(i)  
Calculated as total debt (including current and non-current borrowings) divided by total capital (including equity plus total debt). Share of joint ventures is not considered in the calculation.

(ii)  
Calculated as total debt divided by total of investment property (including trading property and investment property). Share of joint ventures is not considered in the calculation.

  (e)  Other non-financial risks

See details from other non-financial risk management in Note 3 (e) of Exhibit I to Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements.

4. 
Significant judgments, key assumptions and estimates

The Company’s significant accounting policies are stated in Note 1 of Exhibit I to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements. Not all of these significant accounting policies require management to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments or estimates. The following is intended to provide an understanding of the policies that management considers critical because of the level of complexity, judgment or estimation involved in their application and their impact on the consolidated financial statements. These judgments involve assumptions or estimates in respect of future events. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 Trade and other receivables (Continued)

As of June 30, 2012 and July 1, 2011, the lease and service receivables outstanding not written down by way of allowances relate to a large and varied number of clients for whom there is no external credit rating available. Most clients for whom there is no external credit rating available have been Group clients for at least six months and have no default track-records in the past.  The new clients which are less than six months old are monitored on a regular basis. To date, the Group has not experienced any credit issues with such new clients.

Receivables from the sale of properties:

Trade receivables related to the sale of properties represent 44.7 % and 62.4 % of the Group’s total trade receivables as of June 30, 2012 and July 1, 2011, respectively. Payments on these receivables have generally been received when due. These receivables are generally secured by mortgages on the properties. The credit risk on outstanding amounts is considered low.

No losses on provisions were recognized in trade receivables from the sale of properties.

The credit quality of sales receivable will be assessed as per the historical information on default rates of the counterparty.

The Group also holds receivables with related parties. None of these receivables is past due nor have they been written off against allowances.

17. 
Provisions

The Company is subject to several laws, regulations and business practices of the countries where it operates. In the ordinary course of business, the Company is subject to certain contingent liabilities with respect to existing or potential claims, lawsuits and other proceedings, including those involving tax, labor and social security, administrative and civil and other matters. The Company accrues liabilities when it is probable that future costs will be incurred and it can reasonably estimate them. The Company bases its accruals on up-to-date developments, estimates of the outcomes of the matters and legal counsel experience in contesting, litigating and settling matters. As the scope of the liabilities becomes better defined or more information is available, the Company may be required to change its estimates of future costs, which could have a material effect on its results of operations and financial condition or liquidity.

Additionally, when the Company’s interest in a subsidiary, associate or joint venture is reduced to zero, the Company recognizes additional losses in the form of provisions; only when the Company has incurred in a legal or constructive obligation or has committed to make payments on behalf of the subsidiary, associate or joint venture.

See changes in Company´s provision categorized by type of provision and analysis of current and non-current provisions in Note 16 to the Unaudited Condensed Interim Separate Financial Statements.

At June 30, 2012
    (62,542 )     -       (8,172 )     (1,527 )     (72,241 )


Deferred income tax assets are recognized for tax loss carry-forwards to the extent that the realization of the related tax benefits through future taxable profits is probable. Tax loss carry forwards in Argentina expire within 5 years.

In order to fully realize the deferred tax asset, the Company will need to generate future taxable income. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes that as at June 30, 2012, it is probable that the Company will realize all of the deferred tax assets in Argentina.

As of June 30, 2012, the tax loss carry-forwards of the Company and the jurisdictions which generated them are as follows:

Amount
   
Date of generation
   
Date of expiration
 
  48,966       2011       2016  
  85,911       2012       2017  
  134,877

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


Buenos Aires, November 19, 2012 - 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 September 30, 2012.

As from fiscal year 2013, the company adopts accounting policies based on the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) to prepare its financial statements. Until now, the company’s financial statements were prepared in compliance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles of Argentina (“ARG GAAP”) which differ in certain respects from the IFRS. For such reason, we have changed certain valuation and disclosure accounting policies.

In addition, comparative figures and figures as of the transition date (July 1, 2011) have been changed to reflect these adjustments.

The main changes resulting from the application of the IFRS include:

·  
Joint businesses: Whereas under ARG GAAP, businesses in which the company holds an equity interest of 50% and exercises joint control are consolidated in proportion to the interest held by it, under IFRS they cannot be consolidated, and results are recorded as “Income/loss from interests in equity investees and joint businesses”. However, upon analyzing results by segment these impacts are proportionally consolidated. This impacts on various joint businesses that include developments, such as for example: La Ribera Shopping, Horizons and certain land reserves. A conciliation between the company’s income statements by segment and its consolidated income statement is included.
 
·  
Changes in real property: Under IFRS the item “Investment Properties” is added, where we will include properties intended to generate rental income and other properties without a specific intended use or still undeveloped. “Property, Plant and Equipment” will continue to record our hotels. “Properties for sale” will record properties intended for sale and receivables arising from barter agreements.
 
·  
Changes in the recognition of income from real property sales: Under IFRS, income will be recognized from the moment all risks and benefits associated to the property sold have been effectively transferred. In this sense, net realizable value recognition after the execution of a preliminary sales agreement is not allowed, and both the sale and income are generally recorded at the time of execution of the title deed. Finally, when properties under construction are sold, income recognition using the degree of progress method is not allowed (unless certain conditions set forth in the IFRS are met); and income is generally recognized at the time of execution of the title deed.
 
·  
Impacts on Leases: Under IFRS revenues related to leases including stepwise increases (as is mainly the case in Shopping Centers and Offices) must be recognized under the straight-line method over the contract term. The same treatment applies to income from fees charged to third parties in connection with such contracts and related direct costs.
 
·  
Investments in Financial Instruments: The company holds shares in Hersha (NASDAQ:HT), Supertel (NASDAQ:SPPR) and through Alto Palermo, in TGLT (BASE:TGLT). Under ARG GAAP, these financial assets were valued at historical incurred cost; however, under IFRS, they must be valued at market value. This implies that stock price variations will impact on our Income Statement.
 
·  
Equity investees: The company has a direct interest in Banco Hipotecario (BASE:BHIP) and an indirect interest in Tarshop. These companies are recognized in our financial statements under the equity method. However, under IFRS, the equity value of such companies will vary according to changes in the valuation of Allowances for Loan Losses, the method for recognizing Revenues related to lending activities and the treatment of Financial trusts.
 
·  
Business Combinations: Under IFRS, no negative goodwill may be recorded as a result of the acquisition and combination of businesses (when the price paid is lower than the price paid for the assets). Any combination prior to June 30, 2011 will not be revised, only those assets and liabilities whose recognition is not permitted under IFRS will be adjusted. The direct expenses related to the acquisition of companies or operating assets cannot be capitalized. They will be recognized in profit & loss at the time they are incurred. Goodwill resulting from new acquisitions of interests in companies in which the purchaser already holds a controlling stake are directly recognized in shareholders’ equity, with no impact on profit & loss.

Common maintenance expenses and Common Promotional Fund: Under IFRS, third-party common maintenance expense funds and common promotional funds are included in revenues and costs. Under ARG GAAP, the net result of these transactions was recorded.

*Figures match the Income Statement included in the Financial Statements (interests in joint businesses are excluded).

  
Revenues and EBITDA for the first quarter of fiscal year 2013 were 12.7% and 14.1% higher than in the same quarter of 2012, mainly due to an increase in the Shopping Centers and Offices segments, offset by lower revenues from the Sales and Developments and Hotels segments.

„  
Net Income for the first three months of fiscal year 2013 was ARS 50.8 million compared to –147.9 recorded in the same period of 2012, mainly due to lower financial charges and higher income from Banco Hipotecario S.A. and the value of the option in Hersha, which is recorded at market value and reflects a higher value as the share price rises.

II. Shopping Centers (through our subsidiary Alto Palermo S.A.)
 
After a year in which the Argentine shopping center industry saw a very good performance, the first quarter of fiscal year 2013 experienced a stable growth rate. According to the INDEC’s shopping center poll that surveys the main shopping centers in the City of Buenos Aires and its surrounding area, sales increased 24% in the first quarter of fiscal year 2013 compared to the same quarter of 2012.

This performance ran in parallel with the economic indicators that measure consumption activity, such as supermarket sales, which recorded a year-on-year increase of 26% during this quarter, in line with the previous quarters. For the remaining months of 2012, activity levels are expected to continue their upward trend, although showing a milder growth rate than in the previous year.

These rising consumption indicators were reflected in our tenants’ sales, which recorded a year-on-year increase of 22% during this quarter, underpinning increases in revenues and EBITDA of 17.8% and 10.9%, respectively.

III. Offices

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2013, approximately 16,000 sqm were added to the Premium office market, 30% of which are A+2 category buildings and 70% are Class A offices. This new stock was in line with the market’s performance since 2011.

The rental prices and occupancy rate in the A+ market have remained stable. Average price is 31 USD/sqm, whereas the vacancy rate decreased slightly in 2012, reaching levels close to 9%.
 
 
Our office buildings maintained their rent levels during the first quarter of the year and exhibited an increase in the occupancy rate, which reached 97.5%, four percentage points higher than in the same period of the previous year.

„  
Revenues from the Office segment increased by 20.9% in the first quarter of fiscal year 2013, whereas operating income grew by 19.5%. This improvement in the level of activity of offices has been mainly driven by the 100% occupancy of the new building “Dot Building” and occupancy of certain floors in other buildings that were vacant in the first quarter of 2012.
„  
The portfolio’s occupancy level reached 97.5% during the period under review, 4.4 percentage points higher than the one recorded in the previous fiscal year. The entire portfolio’s rental prices increased, reaching 27 USD / sqm. This reflects the soundness of our assets, which are located in the best areas of Downtown Buenos Aires.
„  
The EBITDA/Revenue margin, excluding revenues from maintenance expenses stood at 68.0% in the first quarter of 2013, compared to 53.5% in the same quarter of 2012.
„  
During this quarter, IRSA continued with its strategy to dispose of non-strategic assets, taking advantage of the strength of prices in the Argentine real estate market. In this context, we sold 2 floors of the Building known as “El Rulero” and 2 floors of “La Nación” building for very attractive prices. The proceeds from these sales were recorded in the “Sales and Developments” segment.

1 EBITDA represents operating income plus depreciation and amortization (included in operating income). Our presentation of EBITDA does not reflect the methodology suggested by its acronym. We believe EBITDA provides investors with meaningful information with respect to our operating performance and facilitates comparisons to our historical operating results. However, our EBITDA measure has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation, as an alternative to net income or as an indicator of our operating performance or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under Argentine GAAP.
Some of these limitations include:
· it does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
· it does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
· it does not reflect our interest expense, or the cash requirements to service the interest or principal payments of our debt;
· it does not reflect any cash income taxes or employees’ profit sharing we may be required to pay;
· it reflects the effect of non-recurring expenses, as well as investing gains and losses;
· it is not adjusted for all non-cash income or expense items that are reflected in restatements of changes in financial position; and
· other companies in our industry could calculate this measure differently than we do, which may limit its usefulness as a comparative measure.
Because of these limitations, our EBITDA measure should not be considered a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business or as a measure of cash that will be available to us to meet our obligations. EBITDA is not a recognized financial measure under Argentine GAAP. You should compensate for these limitations by relying principally on our Argentine GAAP results and using our EBITDA measurement supplementally.

IV.           Sales and Developments

Construction decelerated its year-on-year growth rate at the beginning of calendar year 2012. While public sector related branches showed a year-on-year fall in activity levels, private works sectors maintained their rising trend. Commercial and industrial development projects increased close to 1%, whereas housing projects grew approximately 4%. As may be inferred from these indicators, prospects for the construction industry in the next months are from stable to positive. In terms of prices, the price per new square meter in the city of Buenos Aires continues its upward trend.

Sales and progress of development projects

Partial sale of “La Nación” Building, City of Buenos Aires

Last September we sold 2,384 built sqm corresponding to two floors of office space including their related parking spaces, in the Bouchard Plaza building located in the “Plaza Roma” area in the City of Buenos Aires.

The transaction price was fixed at eight million five hundred thousand dollars (USD 8,500,000) (approximately 3,570 USD/sqm) payable upon executing the title deed.

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, IRSA and KOAD S.A. (“KOAD”), an Argentine developer, entered into an asset barter agreement valued at USD 7.5 million in connection with plot number 36 of “Terrenos de Caballito” whereby KOAD agreed to develop a residential complex called “Caballito Nuevo”, at its costs, 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 sqm, totaling approximately 28,000 saleable sqm. The project offers a wide variety of amenities and services. As a result of this transaction, Koad delivered to IRSA 118 apartments and 61 parking lots in the first tower, representing 25% of the total square meters for sale. As of September 30, 2012, 8 apartments and 10 parking spaces are pending sale.

Abril, Hudson, Greater Buenos Aires
Abril is a 312-hectare private residential community located near Hudson City, approximately 34 kilometers south of the City of Buenos Aires. We have developed this property into a private residential community for the construction of single family homes targeting the upper-middle income market. The project includes 20 neighborhoods subdivided into 1,273 lots of approximately 1,107 square meters each. Abril also includes an 18-hole golf course, 130 hectares of woodlands, a 4,000-square meter mansion and entertainment facilities. A bilingual school, horse stables and sports centers and the construction of the shopping center were concluded in 1999. The neighborhoods have been completed, and as of September 30, 2012, 99.6% of the total project had been sold for an aggregate of over ARS 242 million, with approximately 4,800 square meters available for sale.

El Encuentro, Benavidez, Tigre
In the district of Benavidez, Municipality of Tigre, 35 kilometers north from downtown Buenos Aires, a 110-hectare gated residential complex known as “El Encuentro” is located, consisting of a total of 527 lots with a total saleable area of 610,785.15 sqm with two privileged front accesses: the main one to Vía Bancalari and the service one to Highway No. 9, allowing an easy way to and from the city.

Hotels

According to data released by the Argentine Central Bank, in the last years the influx of tourists to Argentina has been mainly from neighboring countries, a trend that continued through 2012, with a growing share of local tourists. As concerns our hotel business, after suffering the eruption of the Chilean volcano that resulted in the closing down of the Bariloche airport for several months, our Llao Llao hotel recovered its income and occupancy levels, whereas during this period the company’s hotels in the City of Buenos Aires had activity levels comparable to those of the previous quarters.

Interest in Metropolitan 885 Third Ave. LLC (“Metropolitan”) through New Lipstick LLC (“New Lipstick”)

IRSA indirectly holds a 49% interest in New Lipstick LLC, a holding company that is owner of Metropolitan, a company whose main asset is the so-called “Lipstick” office building, and the debt associated to this asset, which amounts to approximately USD 115.0 million, following a restructuring previously reported by IRSA.

The Lipstick Building is a landmark building in the City of New York, located in Midtown Manhattan. It has a gross leasable area of more than 57,500 square meters. As of September 30, 2012, the building’s occupancy level reached 91%, at an average rental price in excess of USD 58.0 per sqm.

Purchase of Building located at 183 Madison Ave, New York, NY

During September 2012, through our subsidiary IRSA International LLC,  we executed an agreement whereby IRSA agreed to purchase Rigby Madison LLC’s 33.36% interest in the company that owns the building located at Madison 183, Manhattan. Accordingly, IRSA’s interest in Rigby 183 LLC will amount to 82.36% of its share capital. The transaction amount was USD 32.5 million, out of which USD 5 million were transferred two business days after the execution of the agreement and the balance will be paid at the closing of the transaction, which was extended to the end of November this year.

The property has 19 floors and a net leasable area over 23,200 sqm. As of September 30, 2011, more than 96% of the building was occupied, at an average rental price of approximately USD 40 per sqm.

Interest in Hersha Hospitality Trust (“Hersha”)

Hersha is a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: HT), and is the holder of an indirect controlling interest in 77 hotels, mainly distributed in the northeastern coast of the United States, totaling 9,951 rooms. IRSA’s COO, Mr. Daniel R. Elsztain, is member of Hersha’s Board of Trustees since 2011.

On September 4, 2012, the Company, in its name and through its subsidiaries, sold 2,000,000 common shares in Hersha for a total of USD 9.7 million.

Therefore, IRSA’s interest in Hersha HT’s share capital went from 9.13% to 8.12%.

Investment in Supertel Hospitality Inc.

X. Brief comment on future prospects for the next period

Our shopping centers have continued to exhibit sound invoicing figures and portfolio occupancy reached 98.4% during the first quarter of fiscal year 2013, reflecting our tenants’ strong commitment, who keep choosing our spaces both in Buenos Aires and the inner regions of Argentina to position their brands. We expect that during fiscal year 2013 APSA will continue to consolidate as the leading shopping center company in Argentina, adding new properties and footage to its current portfolio, new top brands and different strategies to expand its footprint in our country, offering the best commercial proposals to our visitors.

In this sense, we will continue to work in the development of our “Arcos” project located in the neighborhood of Palermo, in the City of Buenos Aires. This project will follow an urban model, offering a variety of premium brands in an open-air environment. This new shopping center, which started to be developed in December 2011, is expected to be opened in Spring 2013, adding approximately 13,000 sqm of gross leaseable area and 70 stores to APSA’s portfolio, and featuring the company’s fourteenth shopping center. We hope that this new proposal, which also introduces a cultural space in the retail concept, will achieve the success of our latest developments.

On the other hand, we continue working on the development of a new shopping center in the City of Neuquén. We hope to have suitable business, financial and governmental conditions for speeding up progress in this development during this fiscal year.

In addition, we will continue making efforts to improve our shopping centers’ service offerings, including partnerships with financial institutions for promoting credit card sales, which have proved to be very effective in terms of sales, in order to maintain the success of our occupancy rates and traffic in our Shopping Centers.

Regarding the Offices business, we will continue working towards consolidating the best premium portfolio in the City of Buenos Aires. Thus, we expect to continue our sales of non-strategic portfolio assets for attractive prices as we have actively done during the past months. In addition, we will strive to achieve maximum occupancy in our buildings and the best possible lease agreements, trying to attract new firms wishing to relocate in the spaces we offer.

Our hotel business showed improved indicators during the first quarter of 2013 as our Llao Llao hotel, affected in 2012 by the eruption of the Chilean volcano, recovered its income and occupancy levels. We expect that in 2013 the Llao Llao hotel will become again a premier tourist destination and will maintain its usual income and occupancy levels.

Regarding the Sales and Developments segment, we expect to continue selling non-strategic assets and small land reserves and to make progress in the sale of units received following barter agreements in the residential projects Caballito Nuevo, Torres Rosario and El Encuentro.

As concerns our investments outside Argentina, operating indicators in our New York buildings have improved in 2012 thanks to our management’s experience in managing real estate assets. We will continue to work towards increasing occupancy and income levels in our Lipstick and Madison buildings. Moreover, we retained our share in the hotel REITs Hersha Hospitality Trust and Supertel Hospitality Inc., listed in the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and NASDAQ, respectively. We expect to obtain a satisfactory return from these investments at the shares’ present values.

Given the quality of the real estate assets in our portfolio, the Company’s financial position and low indebtedness level, its experience in taking advantage of market opportunities and its credentials in the capital markets, we are confident that that we are on the right way to continue increasing our property holdings and consolidating the best real estate portfolio of Argentina.
