Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2014 1. Basis of preparation The financial information set out above does not constitute the Company's statutory accounts for the years ended 31 March 2014 or 2013, but is derived from those accounts. Statutory accounts for 2013 have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies and those for 2014 will be delivered following the Company's annual general meeting. The auditor has reported on those accounts; their report was unqualified, did not draw attention to any matters by way of emphasis and did not contain statements under s498(2) or (3) of Companies Act 2006 or equivalent preceding legislation. The financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2014 have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for the revaluation of properties, investments and derivatives. The financial statements have also been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the European Union and therefore comply with Article 4 of the EU IAS Regulation. While the financial information included in this preliminary announcement has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement criteria of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs), this announcement does not itself contain sufficient information to comply with IFRSs. The Company expects to publish full financial statements that comply with IFRSs in June 2014. In the current financial year the Group has adopted the amendments to IAS 1 "Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income", IFRS 13 "Fair Value Measurement" and IAS 19 (revised) "Employee Benefits". • The amendments to IAS 1 require items of other comprehensive income to be grouped by those items that will be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss and those that will never be reclassified, as well as their associated income tax. The amendments have been applied retrospectively and hence the presentation of items of comprehensive income has been re-grouped accordingly. • IFRS 13 impacts the disclosure of investment and owner-occupied properties, as set out in note 8. • IAS 19 (revised) and the related consequential amendments have impacted the accounting for the Group's defined benefit pension scheme, by replacing the interest cost and expected return on plan assets with a net interest charge on the net defined benefit liability. The impact of adopting IAS 19 (revised) is not considered material. Otherwise the accounting policies used are consistent with those contained in the Group's last annual report and accounts for the year ended 31 March 2013. Standards and interpretations issued but not effective for the current accounting period were: • IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments; • IAS 32 (amended) - Financial Instruments: Presentation; • IFRS 10 - Consolidated Financial Statements; • IFRS 11 - Joint Arrangements; • IFRS 12 - Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities; • IAS 12 (amended) - Deferred Tax: recovery of underlying assets; • IAS 27 (revised) - Separate Financial Statements; • IAS 28 (revised) - Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures; and • IAS 36 - Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets. The Directors do not expect that the adoption of the standards listed above will have a material impact on the financial statements of the Group in future periods except as follows: • IFRS 9 will impact both the measurement and disclosures of financial instruments. The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis as stated in the directors' responsibility statement. 2.

The European Public Real Estate Association (EPRA) has issued Best Practices Recommendations, the latest update of which was issued in January 2014, which give guidelines for performance measures. EPRA earnings is the profit after tax excluding investment and development property revaluations and gains or losses on disposals, changes in the fair value of financial instruments and associated close-out costs and their related taxation. A summary of the EPRA Performance Measures is provided in Table B within the Supplementary Disclosures. Underlying earnings consists of the EPRA earnings (diluted) measure, with additional Company adjustments. Adjustments include mark to market adjustments on held for trading assets. The weighted average number of shares in issue for the year was: basic: 999m (2013: 895m); diluted for the effect of share options: 1,004m (2013: 901m). Basic undiluted earnings per share for the year, calculated using profit for the year after taxation of £1,106m (2013: £284m), was 110.7p (2013: 31.7p). Earnings per share shown in the table above are diluted. 31 March 31 March Net asset value (NAV) (diluted) 2014 2013 £m £m Balance sheet net assets 7,117 5,687 Less non-controlling interests (371) - Deferred tax arising on revaluation movements 6 14 Mark-to-market on effective cash flow hedges and related debt adjustments 173 198 Surplus on trading properties 63 10 Dilution effect of share options 39 58 EPRA NAV 7,027 5,967 EPRA NAV per share 688 p 596 p The EPRA NAV per share excludes the mark to market on effective cash flow hedges, related debt adjustments and the convertible bond, deferred taxation on revaluations and surplus on trading properties and is calculated on a fully diluted basis. The EPRA Best Practices Recommendations additional guidance, issued in January 2014, has adjusted the treatment of mark-to-market valuations on convertible bonds for the calculation of NAV per share. This update has provided a 1p increase in EPRA NAV per share in the current year. At 31 March 2014, the number of shares in issue was: basic: 1,008m (2013: 986m); diluted for the effect of share options: 1,021m (2013: 1001m). Total accounting return per share for the year ended 31 March 2014 of 20.0% includes dividends of 27.0p (see note 16) in addition to the increase in EPRA NAV of 92p. Total accounting return per share for the year ended 31 March 2013 was 4.6%. 3.

The low charges reflect the Group's REIT status. Tax expense attributable to underlying profits for the year ended 31 March 2014 was £2m (2013: £1m). The underlying tax rate for the year ended 31 March 2014 was 0.7% (2013: 0.5%). Corporation tax payable at 31 March 2014 was £8m (2013: £17m) as shown on the balance sheet. 8.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices). Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). These levels are specified in accordance with IFRS 13 'Fair Value Measurement'. Property valuations are inherently subjective as they are made on the basis of assumptions made by the valuer which may not prove to be accurate. For these reasons, and consistent with EPRA's guidance, we have classified the valuations of our property portfolio as Level 3 as defined by IFRS 13. Some of the inputs to the valuations are defined as 'unobservable' by IFRS 13. The Group's policy is to recognise transfers between fair value hierarchy levels as of the date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer. There have been no transfers during the period. At 31 March 2014, the Group book value of properties of £7,616m (2013: £5,554m) comprises freeholds of £4,855m (2013: £3,502m); virtual freeholds of £695m (2013: £709m); and long leaseholds of £2,066m (2013: £1,343m). The historical cost of properties was £5,574m (2013: £4,229m). The property valuation does not include any investment properties held under operating leases (2013: £nil). Properties valued at £1,741m (2013: £1,724m) were subject to a security interest and other properties of non-recourse companies amounted to £1,066m (2013: £40m). During the year to 31 March 2014, a gross amount of £286m of investment properties were reclassified to trading properties, as since planning consent has been granted it is the Group's intention to redevelop and sell these properties. Some of these trading properties were subsequently sold in the period. Included within the property valuation is £100m (2013: £91m) in respect of accrued contracted rental uplift income, against which the Group holds a provision of £5m (2013: £5m). The balance arises through the IFRS treatment of leases containing such arrangements, which requires the recognition of rental income on a straight line basis over the lease term, with the difference between this and the cash receipt changing the carrying value of the property against which revaluations are measured. Cumulative interest capitalised against investment properties amounts to £73m (2013: £56m). Valuation The Group's total property portfolio was valued by external valuers on the basis of fair value, in accordance with the RICS Valuation - Professional Standards 2012, eighth edition, published by The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors. The information provided to the valuers, and the assumptions and valuations models used by the valuers are reviewed by the property portfolio team, the Head of Offices, the Head of Retail and the Finance Director. The valuers meet with the External Auditors and also present directly to the Audit Committee at the interim and year-end review of results. A breakdown of valuations split between the Group and its share of joint ventures and funds is shown below: 2014 2013 Group Joint Ventures and Funds Total Group Joint Ventures and Funds Total £m £m £m £m £m £m Knight Frank LLP 6,036 2,903 8,939 5,084 2,680 7,764 CBRE 1,580 2,131 3,711 470 2,265 2,735 Total property portfolio valuation 7,616 5,034 12,650 5,554 4,945 10,499 Non-controlling interest share of property (422) (188) (610) - - - Total property portfolio valuation attributable to shareholders 7,194 4,846 12,040 5,554 4,945 10,499 9.

Comparatives have been re-presented between equity and loans to better reflect the nature of historical investments. PREF, a fund owning a portfolio of retail property in Europe (in which British Land has a net investment of £54m), has its properties externally valued by CBRE. CBRE have included a market uncertainty clause in the valuation report of the Portuguese and Spanish properties, due to a lack of transactional evidence and uncertainty over the economic situation in those markets. In 2013 PREF made partial early repayments of debt totalling €18m. In March 2014, following the sale of its Italian asset, €44m of debt was repaid. PREF now has €37m of bank loans that are due to mature in the calendar year 2015. In December 2013 a one year extension of the fund to 26 March 2015 was approved. At 31 March 2014 the investment in joint ventures included within the total investment in joint ventures and funds was £2,658m (2013:£1,889m). Distributions in the year include the receipt of £6m from the Broadgate joint venture, £2m from the Meadowhall joint venture, £4m from Sainsbury's joint venture, £17m from Tesco joint ventures and £23m from HUT. At 31 March 2014, the valuation of the Group's share of joint ventures and funds properties was £5,034m (2013: £4,945m); surplus on the Group's share of joint ventures and funds' trading properties was £5m (2013: £nil); external net debt was £2,113m (2013: £2,427m) and the mark-to-market adjustment for external debt was £123m liability (2013: £193m liability). 9. Joint ventures and funds (continued): Joint ventures' and funds' summary financial statements A detailed breakdown of the Group's share of results of specific joint ventures and funds for the year ended 31 March 2014 is set out on the two following pages. All disclosures have been restated to British Land accounting policies under IFRS eliminating all profits and losses resulting from upstream and downstream transactions with the Group. In the prior year the detailed breakdown contained 100% of the results of the specific joint ventures and funds.

The income statement results for HUT includes the Group's share of results from the HUT consolidated group up to and including 17th February 2014. Thereafter, only the Group's share of results of the HUT joint ventures and sub-fund are shown. This includes 50% of the results of Deepdale Co-Ownership Trust, Speke Unit Trust, Gibraltar Limited Partnership and Valentine Co-Ownership Trust and 41.25% of Birstall Co-Ownership Trust. The balance sheet shows our ownership of the assets of these joint ventures and sub-funds detailed above. Comparatives have been re-presented to better reflect the nature of our historical investments. + Included in the column headed 'Other joint ventures and funds' are contributions from the following: BL Goodman Limited Partnership, BL Gazeley Limited, Eurofund Investments Zaragoza S.L (disposed of during the year), The Scottish Retail Property Limited Partnership (disposed of during the year), The Aldgate Place Limited Partnership, Bluebutton Property Management UK Limited, BL Residential Limited Partnership, Pillar Retail Europark Fund (PREF) and City of London Office Unit Trust (CLOUT). The Group's ownership share of PREF is 65%, however as the group does not exercise control over significant decisions of the fund, the Group equity accounts for its interest in PREF. The borrowings of joint ventures and funds and their subsidiaries are non-recourse to the Group. All joint ventures are incorporated in the United Kingdom, with the exception of Bluebutton Properties Limited, the Eden Walk Shopping Centre Unit Trust and Leadenhall Holding Co (Jersey) Limited which are domiciled in Jersey. Of the funds, Hercules Unit Trust (HUT) is domiciled in Jersey and PREF in Luxembourg. 9.

The investment has been categorised as level 3 in the fair value hierarchy (see note 8). Fair value of the interest has been determined by the Directors, supported by an external valuation from CBRE. The superstore assets are subject to the same assumption ranges and sensitivities disclosed in note 8. Included within additions to loans and receivables is £92m (2012/13: £53m) in relation to a loan to Bluebutton Properties Limited, a joint venture company. 11.

Trade and other debtors are shown after deducting a provision for bad and doubtful debts of £15m (2013: £11m). The charge to the income statement was £nil (2013: £1m). The Directors consider that the carrying amount of trade and other debtors are approximates to their fair value. There is no concentration of credit risk with respect to trade debtors as the Group has a large number of customers who are paying their rent in advance. 12.

At 31 March 2014 the value of such properties is £455m (2013: £nil) and if these properties were to be sold and tax exemption was not available the tax arising would be £34m (2013: £nil). The deferred tax charge for the year ended 31 March 2014 includes a credit of £2m to reflect reduced deferred tax liabilities arising from the forthcoming reduction in the UK corporation tax rate to 20% (effective from 1 April 2015). Deferred tax assets of £39m (2013: £40m) arising on losses from previous years have not been recognised in the financial year. 15.

Net debt (continued) British Land Unsecured Financial Covenants The two financial covenants applicable to the Group unsecured debt including convertible bonds are: Net Borrowings not to exceed 175% of Adjusted Capital and Reserves At 31 March 2014, the ratio was 40%: i. Net borrowings were £2,896m, being the principal amount of gross debt of £3,209m, less the relevant proportion of borrowings of the partly-owned subsidiary of £219m, plus amounts owed to joint ventures of £4m (see note 12), plus TPP Investments Ltd of £30m (see note 17), less the beneficially owned cash and deposits of £128m (being £142m less the relevant proportion of cash and deposits of the partly-owned subsidiary of £14m); and ii. Adjusted Capital and Reserves were £7,301m, being share capital and reserves of £6,746m (see balance sheet), adjusted for £6m of deferred tax (see note 2), £63m trading property surpluses (see notes 8 and 9), £313m exceptional refinancing charges (see below) and £173m fair value adjustments on financial assets and liabilities (being £115m mark-to-market on interest derivatives and £58m adjustment on the convertible bond). Net Unsecured Borrowings not to exceed 70% of Unencumbered Assets At 31 March 2014 the ratio was 31%: i. Net Unsecured Borrowings were £1,615m, being the principal amount of gross debt of £3,209m, plus amounts owed to joint ventures of £4m (see note 12) less cash and deposits not subject to a security interest of £93m less the principal amount of secured and non-recourse borrowings of £1,505m; and ii. Unencumbered Assets were £5,125m being properties of £7,616m (see note 8) plus investments in joint ventures and funds of £2,712m (see balance sheet) and other investments of £262m (see balance sheet) less investments in joint ventures of £2,658m (see note 9) and encumbered assets of £2,807m (see note 8). In calculating Adjusted Capital and Reserves for the purpose of the unsecured debt financial covenants, there is an adjustment of £313m to reflect the cumulative net amortised exceptional items relating to the refinancings in the years ended 31 March 2005, 2006 and 2007.

The derivatives have been valued by calculating the present value of expected future cash flows, using appropriate market discount rates, by an independent treasury advisor. Fair value heirachy The table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value, by the valuation method. The different levels are defined as follows: Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).

Dividend The fourth quarter dividend of 6.75 pence per share, totalling £68m (2012/13: 6.6 pence per share, totalling £65m) was approved by the Board on 13 May 2014 and is payable on 8 August 2014 to shareholders on the register at the close of business on 4 July 2014. The Board will announce the availability of the Scrip Dividend Alternative via the Regulatory News Service and on its website (www.britishland.com), no later than 4 business days before the ex-dividend date of 2 July 2014. The Board expects to announce the split between Property Income Distributions ('PID') and non-PID income at that time. Any Scrip Dividend Alternative will not be enhanced. PID dividends are paid, as required by REIT legislation, after deduction of withholding tax at the basic rate (currently 20%), where appropriate. Certain classes of shareholders may be able to elect to receive dividends gross. Please refer to our website (www.britishland.com) for details.

Contingent liabilities The Group has contingent liabilities in respect of legal claims, guarantees and warranties arising in the ordinary course of business. It is not anticipated that any material liabilities will arise from contingent liabilities. TPP Investments Limited, a wholly owned ring-fenced special purpose subsidiary, is a partner in The Tesco British Land Property Partnership and, in that capacity, has entered into a secured bank loan under which its liability is limited to £30m (2013: £30m) and recourse is only to the partnership assets. 18. Acquisition of a Subsidiary (Business Combination) On 17 February 2014, the Group acquired additional units of the Hercules Unit Trust, a Unit Trust registered in Jersey which is engaged in property investment, resulting in a cumulative ownership of 57.2% of the outstanding units and control of the underlying entity. Management determined that the acquisition of control should be accounted for as a business combination in accordance with IFRS 3 'Business Combinations'. Following this transaction additional units were purchased bringing cumulative ownership to 58.6% at 31st March 2014. The fair value of the Group's 49.2% equity interest in the Hercules Unit Trust held before the business combination amounted to £430m. No gain or loss was recognised as a result of measuring the equity interest at fair value. Subsequent to 31 March 2014 further purchases resulted in a cumulative ownership of 59.8%. The acquired subsidiary has contributed net revenues of £12m and profit of £18m to the Group for the period from the date of acquisition to 31 March 2014. If the acquisition had occurred on 1 April 2013 with all other variables held constant Group net revenue for 2014 would have increased by £49m, and underlying profit for 2014 would have increased by £23m. Details of the assets and bargain purchase arising are as follows: Attributed fair value £m Investment Property 1,006 Investments in joint ventures and funds 376 Other net current liabilities (4) Cash and cash equivalents 18 Debenture and loans (522) Fair value of acquired interest in net assets of subsidiary 874 Bargain purchase (negative goodwill) (3) Total purchase consideration 871 Less: Fair value of previously held interest (430) Non-controlling interest (374) Cash consideration 67 Additional units purchased in the year 78 Total acquisition of Hercules Unit Trust 145 The purchase consideration disclosed above comprises cash and cash equivalents paid to the acquiree's previous owner of £67m. The bargain purchase is a result of unit acquisitions trading at a discount in the secondary market. The gain on bargain purchase is recognised in net valuation movement. The non-controlling interest (42.8% ownership interest in Hercules Unit Trust) recognised at the acquisition date was measured by reference to the present ownership interest's proportionate share in the acquiree's recognised amounts of the identifiable net assets and amounted to £374m. The valuation of investment property at the acquisition date was performed by an external professional appraiser with experience of the relevant market. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents was considered equal to the carrying value representing the entity's bank deposits; fair value of borrowings and trade and other payables was calculated based on discounted cash flow models. The acquired bank loans and overdrafts have no recourse to other companies or assets in the Group. 19. Share capital and reserves 2014 2013 Number of ordinary shares in issue at 1 April 997,691,488 900,199,638 Share issues 22,074,993 97,491,850 At 31 March 1,019,766,481 997,691,488 Of the issued 25p ordinary shares, 169,990 shares were held in the ESOP trust (2013: 275,497), 11,266,245 shares were held as treasury shares (2013: 11,266,245) and 1,008,330,246 shares were in free issue (2013: 986,149,746). No treasury shares were acquired by the ESOP trust during the year. All issued shares are fully paid. Hedging and translation reserve The hedging and translation reserve comprises the effective portion of the cumulative net change in the fair value of cash flow and foreign currency hedging instruments, as well as all foreign exchange differences arising from the translation of the financial statements of foreign operations. The foreign exchange differences also include the translation of the liabilities that hedge the Company's net investment in a foreign subsidiary. Revaluation reserve The revaluation reserve relates to owner-occupied properties and investments in joint ventures and funds. Merger reserve This comprises the premium on the share placing in March 2013. No share premium is recorded in the Company's financial statements, through the operation of the merger relief provisions of the Companies Act 2006. 20. Segment Information Operating segments The Group allocates resources to investment and asset management according to the sectors it expects to perform over the medium term. Its two principal sectors are currently offices and retail. The Office sector includes residential, as this is often incorporated into Office schemes, and Retail includes leisure, for a similar rationale. The prior year comparatives have been updated to reflect these changes. The relevant revenue, net rental income, operating result, assets and capital expenditure, being the measures of segment revenue, segment result and segment assets used by the management of the business, are set out below.

Additionally, it includes the external valuers' estimate of additional rent in respect of unsettled rent review, turnover rent and sundry income such as that from car parks and commercialisation, less any ground rents payable under head leases. Assets under management is the full value of all assets managed by British Land and includes 100% of the value of all joint ventures and funds. BREEAM(Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Method) assesses the sustainability of buildings against a range of criteria. Capital return is calculated as the change in capital value of the UK portfolio, less any capital expenditure incurred, expressed as a percentage of capital employed over the period, as calculated by IPD. Capital returns are calculated monthly and indexed to provide a return over the relevant period. Capped rents are subject to a maximum level of uplift at the specified rent reviews as agreed at the time of letting. Collar rents are subject to a minimum level of uplift at the specified rent reviews as agreed at the time of letting. Contracted rent is annualised rent adding in rent which is currently subject to a rent free period. Developer's profit is the profit on cost estimated by the valuers. The developer's profit is typically calculated by the valuers to be a percentage of the estimated total development costs, including land and notional finance costs. Development uplift is the total increase in the value (after taking account of capital expenditure and capitalised interest) of properties held for development during the period. It also includes any developer's profit recognised by valuers in the period. Development construction cost is the total cost of construction of a project to completion, excluding site values and finance costs (finance costs are assumed by the valuers at a notional rate of 5.75% per annum). EPRA is the European Public Real Estate Association, the industry body for European REITs. EPRA Cost Ratio (including direct vacancy costs) is the ratio of net overheads and operating expenses against gross rental income (with both amounts excluding ground rents payable). Net overheads and operating expenses relate to all administrative and operating expenses including the share of joint ventures' overheads and operating expenses, net of any service fees, recharges or other income specifically intended to cover overhead and property expenses. EPRA Cost Ratio (excluding direct vacancy costs) is the ratio calculated above, but with direct vacancy costs removed from net overheads and operating expenses balance. EPRA earnings is the profit after taxation excluding investment and development property revaluations and gains/losses on disposals, changes in the fair value of financial instruments and associated close-out costs and their related taxation. EPRA NAV per share is EPRA NAV divided by the diluted number of shares at the period end. EPRA net assets (EPRA NAV) are the balance sheet net assets excluding the mark-to-market on effective cash flow hedges and related debt adjustments and deferred taxation on revaluations. EPRA net initial yield is the annualised rents generated by the portfolio, after the deduction of an estimate of annual recurring irrecoverable property outgoings, expressed as a percentage of the portfolio valuation (adding notional purchaser's costs), excluding development and residential properties. EPRA NNNAV is the EPRA NAV adjusted to reflect the fair value of debt and derivatives and to include deferred taxation on revaluations. EPRA Topped Up Net Initial Yield is the current annualised rent, net of costs, topped up for contracted uplifts, where these are not in lieu of rental growth, expressed as a percentage of capital value, after allowing for notional purchaser's costs. EPRA vacancy rate is the estimated market rental value (ERV) of vacant space divided by ERV of the whole portfolio, excluding developments and residential property. This is the inverse of the occupancy rate. Estimated Rental Value (ERV) is the external valuers' opinion as to the open market rent which, on the date of valuation, could reasonably be expected to be obtained on a new letting or rent review of a property. Fair value movement is accounting adjustment to change the book value of an asset or liability to its market value. Gearing see loan to value (LTV). Gross investment activity as measured by our share of acquisitions, sales and investment in committed development. Gross rental income is the gross accounting rent receivable (quoted either for the period or on an annualised basis) prepared under IFRS which requires that rental income from fixed/minimum guaranteed rent reviews and tenant incentives is spread on a straight-line basis over the entire lease to first break. This can result in income being recognised ahead of cash flow. Gross Value Added (GVA) provides a snapshot of a company's overall contribution to the UK economy, both directly through activities and indirectly through spending. Group is The British Land Company PLC and its subsidiaries and excludes its share of joint ventures and funds (where not treated as a subsidiary) on a line-by-line basis (i.e. not proportionally consolidated). Headline rent is the contracted gross rent receivable which becomes payable after all the tenant incentives in the letting have expired. IFRS are the International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European Union. Income return is calculated as net income expressed as a percentage of capital employed over the period, as calculated by IPD. Income returns are calculated monthly and indexed to provide a return over the relevant period. Interest cover is the number of times net interest payable is covered by underlying profit before net interest payable and taxation. IPD is Investment Property Databank Ltd which produces an independent benchmark of property returns and British Land UK portfolio returns. Lettings and lease renewals are divided between short-term (less than two years' lease length) and long-term (more than two years' lease length). Lettings and renewals are compared both to the previous passing rent as at the start of the financial year and the ERV immediately prior to letting. Both comparisons are made on a net effective basis. Like-for-like ERV growth is the change in ERV over a period on the standing investment properties expressed as a percentage of the ERV at the start of the period. Like-for-like ERV growth is calculated monthly and compounded for the period subject to measurement, as calculated by IPD. Like-for-like rental income growth is the growth in net rental income on properties owned throughout the current and previous periods under review. This growth rate includes revenue recognition and lease accounting adjustments but excludes properties held for development in either period and properties with guaranteed rent reviews. Loan to value (LTV) is the ratio of principal value of gross debt less cash, short-term deposits and liquid investments to the aggregate value of properties and investments. Mark-to-market is the difference between the book value of an asset or liability and its market value. Multi-channel retailing is the use of a variety of channels in a customer's shopping experience, including research, before a purchase. Such channels include: retail stores, online stores, mobile stores, mobile app stores, telephone sales and any other method of transacting with a customer. Transacting includes browsing, buying, returning as well as pre- and post- sale service. Net Development Value is the estimated end value of a development project as determined by the external valuers for when the building is completed and fully let (taking into account tenant incentives and notional purchaser's costs). It is based on the valuers view on ERVs, yields, letting voids and rent-frees. Net effective rent is the contracted gross rent receivable taking into account any rent-free period or other tenant incentive. The incentives are treated as a cost-to-rent and spread over the lease to the earliest termination date. Net equivalent yield is the weighted average income return (after allowing for notional purchaser's costs) a property will produce based upon the timing of the income received. In accordance with usual practice, the equivalent yields (as determined by the external valuers) assume rent is received annually in arrears. Net Initial Yield is the current annualised rent, net of costs, expressed as a percentage of capital value, after allowing for notional purchaser's costs. Net rental income is the rental income receivable in the period after payment of direct property outgoings which typically comprise ground rents payable under head leases, void costs, net service charge expenses and other direct irrecoverable property expenses. Net rental income is quoted on an accounting basis. Net rental income will differ from annualised net cash rents and passing rent due to the effects of income from rent reviews, net property outgoings and accounting adjustments for fixed and minimum contracted rent reviews and lease incentives Net reversionary yield is the anticipated yield to which the initial yield will rise (or fall) once the rent reaches the estimated rental value. Occupancy rate is the estimated rental value of let units as a percentage of the total estimated rental value of the portfolio, excluding development properties. It includes accommodation under offer or subject to asset management (where they have been taken back for refurbishment and are not available to let as at the balance sheet date). Omni-channel retailing is the evolution of multi-channel retailing, but is consent rated more on a seamless approach to the consumer experience through all available shopping channels i.e. mobile internet devices, computers, bricks and mortar, television, radio, direct mail, catalogue, etc. Over rented is the term used to describe when the contracted rent is above the estimated rental value (ERV). Overall 'topped-up' net initial yield is the EPRA Net 'topped-up' Initial Yield, adding all contracted uplifts to the annualised rents. Passing rent is the gross rent, less any ground rent payable under head leases. Portfolio valuation movement is the increase in value of the portfolio of properties held at the balance sheet date and net sales receipts of those sold during the period, expressed as a percentage of the capital value at the start of the period plus net capital expenditure, capitalised interest and transaction costs. Property Income Distributions (PIDs) are profits distributed to shareholders which are subject to tax in the hands of the shareholders as property income. PIDs are normally paid net of withholding tax currently at 20% which the REIT pays to the tax authorities on behalf of the shareholder. Certain types of shareholder (i.e. pension funds) are tax exempt and receive PIDs without withholding tax. Property companies also pay out normal dividends, called non-PIDs, which are treated as normal dividends and not subject to withholding tax. Property valuation is reported by the Group's external valuers. In accordance with usual practice, they report valuations net, after the deduction of the notional purchaser's costs, including stamp duty land tax, agent and legal fees. Rack rented is the term used to describe when the contracted rent is in line with the estimated rental value (ERV), implying a nil reversion. Rent-free period see Tenant (or lease) incentives. Rent reviews take place at intervals agreed in the lease (typically every five years) and their purpose is usually to adjust the rent to the current market level at the review date. For upwards-only rent reviews, the rent will either remain at the same level or increase (if market rents have increased) at the review date. Rents with fixed and minimum uplifts are either where rents are subject to contracted uplifts at a level agreed at the time of letting; or where the rent is subject to an agreed minimum level of uplift at the specified rent review. Retail planning consents are separated between A1, A2 and A3 - as set out in The Town and Country Planning (Use Classes) Order 2005. Within the A1 consent category, Open A1 consent grants planning for any type of retail, while Restricted A1 consent places limits on the types of retail that can operate (this is typically a restriction that only bulky goods operators are allowed to trade at that site). Class Description Use for all/any of the following purposes A1 Shops Retail sale of goods other than hot food; post office; sale of tickets or as a travel agency; sale of sandwiches or other cold food off the premises; hairdressing; direction of funerals; display of goods for sale; hiring out of domestic or personal goods/articles; the reception of goods to be washed, cleaned or repaired; a retail warehouse club being a retail club where goods are sold, or displayed for sale, only to persons who are members of that club; or as a night club. Financial and professional services Financial services; professional services (other than health or medical); or other services (including betting) appropriate for a shopping area. D2 Assembly and leisure Cinemas, music and concert halls, bingo and dance halls (but not night clubs), swimming baths, skating rinks, gymnasiums or area for indoor or outdoor sports and recreations. Reversion is the increase in rent estimated by the external valuers, where the passing rent is below the estimated rental value. The increases to rent arise on rent reviews and lettings. Scrip dividend British Land offers its shareholders the opportunity to receive dividends in the form of shares instead of cash. This is known as a Scrip dividend. Standing Investments are assets which are directly held and not in the course of development. Tenant (or lease) incentives are incentives offered to occupiers to enter into a lease. Typically this will be an initial rent-free period, or a cash contribution to fit-out. Under accounting rules the value of lease incentives is amortised through the income statement on a straight-line basis to the earliest lease termination date. TMTstands for technology, media and telecommunications. The residual site value of a development is calculated as the estimated (net) development value, less development profit, all development construction costs, finance costs (assumed at a notional rate) of a project to completion and notional site acquisition costs. The residual is determined to be the current site value. Topping out is a traditional construction ceremony to mark the occasion when the structure of the building reaches the highest point. Total property return is calculated as the change in capital value, less any capital expenditure incurred, plus net income, expressed as a percentage of capital employed over the period, as calculated by IPD. Total property returns are calculated monthly and indexed to provide a return over the relevant period. Total return (total accounting return) is the growth in EPRA NAV plus dividends paid, and this can be expressed as a percentage of EPRA NAV per share at the beginning of the period. Total Shareholder Return is the growth in value of a shareholding over a specified period, assuming dividends are reinvested to purchase additional units of stock. Total tax contribution is a more comprehensive view of tax contributions than the accountancy-defined tax figure quoted in most financial statements. It comprises taxes and levies paid directly, as well as taxes collected from others which we administered. Turnover rents is where all or a portion of the rent is linked to the sales or turnover of the occupier. Under rented is the term used to describe when the contracted rent is below the estimated rental value (ERV), implying a positive reversion. Underlying earnings per share (EPS) consists of underlying profit after tax divided by the diluted weighted average number of shares in issue during the period. Underlying profit before tax is the pre-tax EPRA earnings measure with additional Company adjustments. Adjustments include mark-to-market adjustments on, or profits on disposal of, held for trading assets, mark-to- market adjustments on the convertible bond and issue costs of the convertible bond. Virtual freeholdrepresents a long leasehold tenure for a period of up to 999 years. A 'peppercorn', or nominal, rent is paid annually. Weighted average debt maturity - each tranche of Group debt is multiplied by the remaining period to its maturity and the result is divided by total Group debt in issue at the period end. Weighted average interest rateis the Group loan interest and derivative costs per annum at the period end, divided by total Group debt in issue at the period end. Weighted average unexpired lease term is the average lease term remaining to first break, or expiry, across the portfolio weighted by contracted rental income (including rent-frees). The calculation excludes residential leases and properties allocated as developments. Yield compressionoccurs when the net equivalent yield of a property decreases, measured in basis points. Yield on cost is the estimated annual rent of the completed development divided by the total cost of development including site value and finance costs, accruing at a rate of 4% per annum to the point of assumed rent commencement, expressed as a percentage return. Yield shift is a movement (usually expressed in bps) in the yield of a property asset, or like-for-like portfolio, over a given period. Yield compression is a commonly-used term for a reduction in yields. This information is provided by RNS The company news service from the London Stock Exchange END FR USRARSRAVARR
