REPORT ON REVIEW OF INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF DEYAAR DEVELOPMENT PJSC
Introduction
We have reviewed the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Deyaar Development PJSC and its subsidiaries ("the Group") as at 30 June 2010, comprising of the interim consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2010, the related interim consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income for the three-month and six-month periods then ended, the related statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month period then ended and explanatory notes. Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting ("IAS 34"). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these interim condensed consolidated financial statements based on our review.
Scope of Review
We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity". A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Consequently, it does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34.
Emphasis of matters
Without qualifying our conclusion, we draw attention to the following:
- Note 3 to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements which set out major sources of estimation uncertainty and refers to assumptions made by management in determining or testing the carrying amounts of certain assets. It is reasonably possible, on the basis of existing knowledge, that outcomes within the next financial year that are different from the assumptions could require material adjustments to the carrying amounts of the assets affected.

REPORT ON REVIEW OF INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF DEYAAR DEVELOPMENT PJSC (continued)
Emphasis of matters (continued)
-
- Note 5 to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements. The Group signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) in December 2008 with a third party (the seller) to enter into negotiations for the execution of a sale and purchase agreement (the agreement) for acquiring the seller's interest in a building (the interest). According to the MOU, the terms of MOU will automatically terminate after a certain period or on the execution of the agreement. In accordance with the terms of the MOU, the Group paid AED 72.1 million as a refundable deposit. The Group also made additional payments of AED 113.7 million in this respect during the year ended 31 December 2009. A party that had initially financed the seller's interest had shown an outstanding murabaha balance of AED 186.3 million as receivable from the Group at 31 December 2009. The seller has filed a case against the Group during the current period asking the Group to fulfil its obligations and the Group has also filed a counterclaim against the seller for refund of the amounts paid. Management believes that the amounts paid by the Group are recoverable from the seller and any murabaha balance is also payable by the seller since a sale and purchase agreement was never signed and accordingly the terms of MOU have automatically terminated due to the passage of time. The ultimate outcome of the matter cannot be determined at this stage and accordingly no provision that may result has been made in the financial statements.
-
- Note 6 to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Properties under construction include a project in Dubai acquired from a third party for AED 372 million. The consideration included AED 175 million being premium for the seller. Management now believes that the master developer may not complete the related infrastructure and therefore, the project may have to be abandoned. Management is of the view that the transaction has become void and therefore should be reversed. The Group has also commenced arbitration proceedings against the seller in this respect. The ultimate outcome of the matter cannot be determined at this stage and accordingly no provision that may result has been made in the financial statements.

BASIS OF PREPARATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES $\overline{2}$
Basis of preparation
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting and applicable requirements of the United Arab Emirates Laws. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Group's annual financial statements as at 31 December 2009. The results for the period ended 30 June 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the financial year ending 31 December 2010.
Significant accounting policies
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group's annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2009, except for the adoption of new standards and interpretations as of 1 January 2010, noted below:
IFRS 2 Share-based payment
This standard has been amended to clarify the accounting for group cash-settled share-based payment transactions. This amendment also supersedes IFRIC 8 and IFRIC 11. The adoption of this amendment did not have any impact on the financial position or performance of the Group.
IFRS 3 Business combinations (Revised) and IAS 27 consolidated and separate financial statements (Amended)
The Group applies the revised standards from 1 January 2010, IFRS 3 (Revised) introduces significant changes in the accounting for business combinations occurring after this date. Changes affect the valuation of non-controlling interest, the accounting for transaction costs, the initial recognition and subsequent measurement of a contingent consideration and business combinations achieved in stages. These changes will impact the amount of goodwill recognised, the reported results in the period that an acquisition occurs and future reported results.
IAS 27 (Amended) requires that a change in the ownership interest of a subsidiary (without loss of control) is accounted for as a transaction with owners in their capacity as owners. Therefore, such transactions will no longer give rise to goodwill, nor will they give rise to gains or losses. Furthermore, the amended standard changes the accounting for losses incurred by the subsidiary as well as the loss of control of a subsidiary. The changes by IFRS 3 (Revised) and IAS 27 (Amended) will affect future acquisitions or loss of control of subsidiaries and transactions with non-controlling interests.
The change in accounting policy was applied prospectively and had no impact on the earnings per share.
IAS 39 Financial Instruments: recognition and measurement - eligible hedged items
The amendment addresses the designation of a one-sided risk in a hedged item, and the designation of inflation as a hedged risk or portion in particular situations. The amendment had no effect on the financial position or performance of the Group.
IFRIC 17 Distributions of non-cash assets to owners
This interpretation provides guidance on accounting for arrangements whereby an entity distributes non-cash assets to shareholders either as a distribution of reserves or dividends to owners. The interpretation had no effect on the financial position or performance of the Group.
ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS $\mathbf{3}$
The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date, that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below:
ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS (continued) $\mathbf{3}$
Revaluation of investment properties
The Group carries its investment properties at fair value, with changes in fair value being recognised in the income statement. The Group engaged independent valuation specialists to determine the fair values of investment properties as at 31 December 2009 and 30 June 2010. For investment properties under construction the management used a valuation technique based on a discounted cash flow model as there is a lack of comparable market data because of the nature of the property. The determined fair value of the investment properties is most sensitive to the estimated yield as well as the long term vacancy rate.
The assumptions used in arriving at fair values of properties in this development are as follows:
| 2010 | 2009 | |
|---|---|---|
| Long term vacancy rate Long term growth in rental rates - every alternative year |
10% 5% |
10% 5% 10% |
| Discount rate | 10% |
Impairment of investments in associates
Investments in associates are tested for impairment annually (as at 31 December) and when circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the investments in associates may be impaired. Impairment is determined by assessing the recoverable amount of the associate. Where the recoverable amount of the associate is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised.
The recoverable amount of investments is determined based on a value in use calculation using cash flow projections from financial budgets approved by senior management covering a five-year period. The pre-tax discount rate applied to cash flow projections is 10% and cash flows beyond the five-year period are extrapolated using a 3.0% growth rate that is the same as the long-term average estimated inflation/GDP Growth rates for UAE Economy.
Net realisable value of inventories and advances against purchase of land
The carrying amounts of inventories (properties held for sale, properties under construction and land held for future development) and advances for purchase of land are compared with net realisable value to determine that cost does not exceed the net realisable value. The Group also estimates the cost to complete properties under construction in order to determine the cost attributable to properties being developed. These estimates include the cost of providing infrastructure and construction activities, potential claims by main contractors and subcontractors and the cost of meeting other contractual obligations to the customers.
Properties held for sale are carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value takes into consideration the value that the Group can obtain by offering these properties to those customers who have committed to buy units in other developments launched by the Group.
Properties under construction are carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value has been determined on the basis of committed sale price if the remaining receivable amount is lower than the current market value of the units booked by customers.
The key assumptions used in the calculation of net realisable value of land held for future development are as follows:
- Construction will start in 2012 and beyond;
- Selling prices and cost of construction will remain at the current level; and
- Cost of financing will be 10% per annum.
ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS (continued) $\overline{\mathbf{3}}$
Impairment of goodwill
Goodwill is tested for impairment annually (as at 31 December) and when circumstances indicate that the carrying value may be impaired. Impairment is determined by assessing the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit to which goodwill relates. Where the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit or group of cash generating units is less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognised.
The key assumptions used in the calculation of the value-in-use are as follows:
- Completion of existing projects under development and collection of remaining cash from customers. This is based on experience of recent past and comparison of remaining cash due from customers with prevailing market prices;
- Cash flows beyond the 3 year period are extrapolated using a 3.0% growth rate (2008: 3.0%) that is the same as the long-term average estimated inflation/GDP Growth rates for UAE Economy.
- The Group will expand its operations in other countries in the MENA region. This is based on feasibility studies prepared by independent consultants; and
- 10% Discount rate Discount rate reflects the current market assessment of the risks specific to the unit. The discount rate was estimated based on the average percentage of a weighted average cost of capital for the industry. This rate was further adjusted to reflect the market assessment of any risk specific to the cash generating unit for which future estimates of cash-flows have not been adjusted.
As a result of the test performed at 31 December 2009, management did not identify impairment for the property development unit to which goodwill of AED 968,964 thousand is allocated.
EARNINGS / (LOSS) PER SHARE $\overline{\mathbf{4}}$
Basic and diluted earnings / (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the profit/(loss) attributable to the equity holders of the parent for the period by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods as shown below:
| Six months ended 30 June |
Three months ended 30 June |

|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2010 | 2009 | 2010 | 2009 | |

(343, 299) | 39,518 | (242, 987) | 60,902 |
| Weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period (in thousands) |

The Company has not issued any instruments which would have a dilutive impact on earnings/ (loss) per share when exercised.
NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS At 30 June 2010 (Unaudited)
PREPAYMENTS AND OTHER ASSETS $\overline{\mathbf{5}}$
The Group signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) in December 2008 with a third party (the seller) to enter into negotiations for the execution of a sale and purchase agreement (the agreement) for acquiring the seller's interest in a building (the interest). According to the MOU, the terms of MOU will automatically terminate after a certain period or on the execution of the agreement. In accordance with the terms of the MOU, the Group paid AED 72.1 million as a refundable deposit. The Group also made additional payments of AED 113.7 million in this respect during the year ended 31 December 2009. Thus, a total balance of AED 185.8 million is included in prepayments and other assets. The seller has filed a case against the Group during the current period asking the Group to fulfil its obligations and the Group has also filed a counterclaim against the seller for refund of the amounts paid. Management believes that the amounts paid by the Group are recoverable from the seller since a sale and purchase agreement was never signed and accordingly the terms of MOU have automatically terminated due to the passage of time. Accordingly no provision has been made in these financial statements.
PROPERTIES UNDER CONSTRUCTION $6\phantom{1}6$
Properties under construction include a project in Dubai acquired from a third party for AED 372 million. The consideration included AED 175 million being premium for the seller. Management now believes that the master developer may not complete the related infrastructure and therefore, the project may have to be abandoned. Management is of the view that the transaction has become void and therefore should be reversed. The Group has also commenced arbitration proceedings against the seller in this respect. Accordingly no provision has been made in these financial statements.
