  b. Comparative Information

Balances items as of June 30, 2008 shown in these unaudited financial statements for comparative purposes arise from audited annual financial statements for the year then ended.

Balances for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2009 of income, and cash flows statements are shown for comparative purposes with the same period of the previous fiscal year.

The financial statements as of June 30, 2008 and as of March 31, 2008 originally issued have been subject to certain reclassifications required in order to present these figures comparatively with those stated as of March 31, 2009.

 

NOTE 2: CONSIDERATION OF THE EFFECTS OF INFLATION

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

NOTE 2: (Continued)

 

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

The rate used for restatement of items was the domestic whole revenue price index published by the National Institute of Statistics and Census.

 

NOTE 3: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

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

 

  a. Revenue recognition

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

 

   

Net income for admission rights and rental of stores and stands

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

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

Certain lease agreements contain provisions, which provide for rents based on a percentage of revenues or based on a percentage of revenues volume above a specified threshold. APSA determines the compliance with specific targets and

and subsidiaries

NOTE 3: (Continued)

 

  a. (Continued)

 

calculates the additional rent on a monthly basis as provided for in the contracts. Thus, these contingent rents are not recognized until the required thresholds are exceeded.

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

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

In addition to rent, tenants are generally charged “admission rights”, a non-refundable admission fee that tenants may be required to pay upon entering into a lease or upon lease renewal.

  c. Investment in Banco Hipotecario S.A.

The negative goodwill arising from the acquisition of shares in Banco Hipotecario (See Note 21 A.5. to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements) has been measured at cost, which had been calculated as the difference between the amount paid for such investment and the book value of the equity interest acquired.

i) Negative goodwill: Negative goodwill represents the excess of the market value of net assets of the subsidiaries at the percentage of participation acquired over the acquisition cost. Goodwill has been restated following the guidelines mentioned in Note 2 and amortization has been calculated by the straight-line method based on an estimated useful life, that in no case exceed 20 years, considering the weighted-average of the remaining useful life of identifiable assets acquired subject to depreciation.

Includes goodwill originated from the purchase of shares of Emprendimiento Recoleta S.A., Empalme S.A.I.C.F.A y G. (“Empalme”) and Mendoza Plaza Shopping S.A. (through APSA) and Palermo Invest S.A., APSA, Banco Hipotecario S.A and Tyrus S.A.

ii) Goodwill: The goodwill represents the excess of the acquisition cost over the net assets’ market value of the business acquired to the share percentage.

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

The residual value of goodwill arising from acquisition of net assets and shares in companies has been shown in the “Negative goodwill, net” caption. Amortizations were classified in the “Amortization of the Negative Goodwill” caption of the statement of income.

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

 

  e. Liabilities in kind related to barter transactions

Liabilities in kind corresponding to obligations to deliver units to be built are valued considering the cost of the assets received. The Company estimates that this value does not exceed the cost of construction of the units to deliver plus additional costs to transfer the assets to the creditor. Liabilities in kind have been shown in the “Trade account payables”.

NOTE 19: LAWSUITS AND CLAIMS IN COURSE

 

   

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

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

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

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

On March 17, 2009, the National Supreme Court admitted the appeal against the decision made by the lower court judge that had improperly refused to permit its filing and decided to suspend the enforcement of the judgment in so far as the extraordinary appeal lodged by LLR is not resolved.

In accordance with the information provided by the attorneys in respect of this lawsuit, the amount to be recorded by virtue of the Court sentence amounts to Ps.10,174 as of March 31, 2009, such amount being recorded in Other current liabilities - Payables to National Parks Administration.

 

NOTE 20: RESTRICTED ASSETS

i) Puerto Retiro S.A.

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

NOTE 20: (Continued)

 

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

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

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

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

ii) Mortgage guaranteed loan Hoteles Argentinos S.A.

In March 2005, Credit Suisse First Boston (“CSFB”) acquired the debt for US$ 11.1 million of Hoteles Argentinos (“HASA”), which had been in non-compliance since January 2002. In April 2006 HASA reduced the capital amount payable to US$ 6.0 million. The balance will accrue LIBO interest rate 6 months plus 7.0% and will be paid off in installments, being the last of US$ 5.07 million due in March, 2010.

In addition, two credit default swaps were subscribed. One between IRSA and CSFB for 80% of the restructured debt value, and the other one is between Starwood Hotels and Resorts Worldwide Inc. (Starwood) and CSFB for 20% of the restructured debt value. Under these contracts, both companies (IRSA and Starwood) are able to protect CSFB in case of non-compliance with HASA’s obligations. For valuable consideration, IRSA and Starwood will be paid a coupon on a periodical basis. To support the obligations assumed, the Company deposited as guarantee the amount of US$ 1.2 million.

  5. Capital increase and capital contributions to Tarshop S.A.

Due to the international financial context, there has been high volatility in the interest rates and increases in the so called systemic default that have affected performance and financing of consumer financing business. Increased default levels have brought about an increase in the subordination of financial trusts that coupled to the changes in the tax treatment afforded to them, the higher interest rate due to risk increase and a certain deceleration of private consumption, generated the need to review the general and specific economic perspectives of Tarshop’s activity.

To meet the growing volatility in the international financial context and provide Tarshop with a capital base according to the current market conditions, in September 2008 APSA decided to participate in the capital increase of Tarshop for up to the amount of Ps. 60,000, increasing its equity interest in Tarshop from 80% to 93.4%. Likewise, on December 31, 2008, the APSA provided funds then accepted as irrevocable contributions for Ps. 105,000 aiming at strengthening the balance sheet position, reinforcing the financial position, paying for operating expenses and repositioning Tarshop on the market. During January 2009 APSA granted a loan to Tarshop S.A. for the amount of Ps. 10,600, to BADLAR rate.

To supplement the financial support, various actions were implemented since then by means of direct advisory of APSA’s management at Tarshop S.A. Such actions were aimed at improving Tarshop’s performance downsizing the structure of points of sales with the subsequent decrease in personnel by 17%, the reduction of 13 points of sales and the reduction of leased centralized areas by 10%. Rationalization of resources has included areas such as consulting.

In line with the commercial actions as the following actions among other were recently implemented:

 

  (i) Redesigning the structure of distribution channels.

 

  (ii) Changes in cash and financing plans to stores.

 

  (iii) Renegotiation conditions with adhered establishments.

It is outlined likewise that the recent amendment to the tax treatment to financial trusts and other changes boosted by the Federal Executive calls for an ongoing adjustment monitoring fine-tuning the positioning strategy of Tarshop, upon the comings and goings of this juncture.

  1. Investment in Banco Hipotecario

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

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

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

 

   

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

 

   

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

In September 2002 and October 2005, the Argentine Central Bank credited US$ 344,050 and US$ 16,761 in BODEN 2012, respectively, for compensation.

NOTE 23: (Continued)

 

On August 1, 2005, a note was submitted to the Argentine Central Bank stating the acceptance of the number of BODEN verified by the Superintendence of Financial and Exchange Entities.

Finally in September 2005 began the subscription of Coverage BODEN 2012. As of March 31, 2009 the subscription of BODEN 2012 amounts to US$ 773,531.

Exposure to the non-financial public sector

Banco Hipotecario S.A. keeps recorded in its financial statements assets with the Non-Financial Public Sector amounting to Ps. 3,129,617. On the other hand, liabilities to the Argentine Central Banks recorded as of March 31, 2009 amount to Ps. 208,873 being the credit balance related to advances to subscribe BODEN 2012 in line with sections 28 and 29 of Decree 905/02.

The net exposure with the Public Sector, without considering liquid assets in accounts authorized by the Argentine Central Bank, amounts to Ps. 2,920,744 and Ps. 2,628,720 as of March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

Banco Hipotecario S.A. intends to allocate assets portfolio of the public sector as guarantee for the application of the advancement to finance the coverage bonds subscription, as provided for in section 29 of Decree 905/02.

As from January 1, 2006, the dispositions of point 12 of Communication “A” 3911 (Communication “A” 4455) became effective, as regards that the assistance to the Public Sector (average measured) cannot exceed 40% of total Assets of the last day of the previous month. Through Communication “A” 4546 of July 9, 2006, it was established that as from July 1, 2007, such limit was modified to 35%. The exposure of Banco Hipotecario S.A. to the Public Sector originated in compensations granted by the National Government as a result of year 2002 crisis, principally related to the asymmetric “pesification” of assets and liabilities. To such extent and considering that assets to the Public Sector exceeded the mentioned limit. On January 19, 2006, Banco Hipotecario S.A. reported to the Argentine Central Bank that it will gradually decrease the proportion of assets subject to the exposure to the Public Sector, in line with the amortization and cancellation made by the Government of the bonds received for asymmetric compensation in the currency of issuance. To date, no objections to this issue have been received.

As of March 31, 2009 and 2008 the assistance to the Public Sector arises 24.8% and 26.4%, from total Assets, respectively.

Economic situation

During the last months, the world’s principal financial markets have suffered the impact of volatility conditions as well as lack both of liquidity and credit. Consequently, stock-market rates showed a significant fall together with an evident economic deceleration also at worldwide. Although the central countries took immediate action on the matter, the future evolution of the international markets is uncertain, which produce direct effects on the quotation of financial assets, particularly shares, debts, titles and investments funds.

As regards the Argentine Republic, stock-markets showed a pronounced downward trend in the price of public and private bonds and a rise in interest rates, country risk and rates of exchange.

The Bank’s management is evaluating and monitoring the effects derived from the situations referred to above on the Company and subsidiaries in order to adopt the necessary measures to soften the effects of the global situation.

As shown in the balance sheet of Banco Hipotecario S.A. all the above matters produced negative effects on the bank investments, the principal impact being the one generated by public bonds received and to be received arising from the offsetting established in sections 28 and 29 of Decree 905/02, and by guaranteed bonds.

Aspects pending of resolution

As mentioned in the notes to the financial statements of Banco Hipotecario S.A. (“Banco Hipotecario”), there are certain aspects that had been objected to by the Financial Institutions Oversight Department of the Central Bank of Argentina (BCRA); Banco Hipotecario is currently preparing the relevant responses. These matters are related mainly to:

 

  (a) The accounting records entered for certain transactions involving derivative financial instruments, which, according to the requirements of BCRA, are to be booked in accordance with the criteria laid down by the professional accounting standards, would entail a reduction in Shareholders’ equity as of March 31, 2009;

 

  (b) the regulatory treatment of prudential ratios, mainly in connection with the Non-financial public sector credit risk fractioning and counterparty risk and their impact on the minimum capital requirements arising from certain transactions involving derivate financial instruments: according to BCRA’s calculations, there might have been a significant under-statement of the amounts deposited as per such ratio as of December 31, 2008; and,

NOTE 23: (continued)

 

  (c) as regards the accounting for the compensation to be paid by the National Government in connection with the Coverage Bonds: if it were booked as per the requirements imposed by BCRA, would entail a reduction in Shareholders’ equity as of March 31, 2009 should be revised down.

To book its investment in Banco Hipotecario, the Company uses the bank’s Net shareholders’ equity as determined by application of Argentina’s professional accounting standards. Therefore, the aspects referred to in a) and c) above do not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements because they have already been considered in the amounts used to determine Shareholders’ equity.

 

  2. Capitalization program for executive management

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

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

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

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

Proceeds from the contributions made by the Company are transferred to another financial vehicle independent of and separate from the previous one. In the future, participants will have access to 100% of the plan benefits (i.e. including the Company’s contributions made in favor of the financial vehicle created ad hoc) under the following circumstances:

Such agreement was subject to two conditions, both already complied with, consisting in the ratification of the agreement by means of an ordinance of the legislative body of the Municipality of Neuquén, and that the new architectonic project and the extension of the environmental impact research submitted were approved by such Municipality.

NOTE 23: (continued)

 

After having obtained the approval, the Company had a 150 days’ term to submit the drafts of the architectonic project, such term maturing on February 17, 2008. However, such drafts presentation took place prior to the referred date. As regards filing thereof, the Municipality of Neuquén made some comments as to feasible solution to the project. An additional term was formally requested to file the new project. As of the filing date of these financial statements, such request had not been answered. Once the mentioned drafts are registered, which to the date of these unaudited financial statements has not occurred, Shopping Neuquén S.A. has to start the works within a 90 days’ term.

The first stage of the work (contemplating the minimum construction of 21,000 square meters of the shopping center and 10,000 square meters of the hypermarket) should be concluded in a maximum 22 months term as from the construction starting date.

In case of default in any of the covenants established in the agreement, the Municipality of Neuquén is entitled to terminate the agreement and carry out the actions that may be considered necessary for such respect.

The agreement referred to above put an end to the file called “Shopping Neuquén S.A. against Municipalidad de Neuquén on Administrative Action” under judicial procedure before the High Court of Neuquén where only Municipality lawyers’ fees are pending payment, which will be borne by Shopping Neuquén S.A.

  4. Tarshop S.A. credit card receivables securitization program

Tarshop S.A. has ongoing securitization programs through which Tarshop S.A., a majority-owned subsidiary of APSA, transfers a portion of its customer credit card receivable balances to master trusts that issues certificates to public and private investors.

Under the securitization programs, Trusts may issue two types of certificates representing undivided interests in the Trusts - Títulos de Deuda Fiduciaria (“TDF”) and Certificate de Participation (“CP”), which represent debt, and equity certificates, respectively. Interest and principal services are paid periodically to the TDF holders throughout the life of the security. CPs are subordinated securities which entitle the CP holders to share pro rata in the cash flows of the securitized credit card receivables, after principal and interest on the TDFs and other fees and expenses have been paid. During the revolving period no payments are made to TDF and CP holders.

Principal collections of the underlying financial assets are used by the Trust to acquire additional credit card receivables throughout the revolving period. Once the revolving period ends, a period of liquidation occurs during which: (i) no further assets are purchased, (ii) all cash collections are used to fulfill the TDF service requirements and (iii) the remaining proceeds are used to fulfill the CPs service requirements.

In consideration of the the credits transfered to the Trusts, which have been eliminated from the Tarshop’s S.A. balance sheet, that receives cash (arising from the placement of the debt securities by the Trusts) and CPs issued by the Trusts.

The latter are recorded at their values calculated by the equity method of accounting at the closing of the period, net of the corresponding allowances for impairment, if applicable, on the basis of the financial statements issued by the Trusts.

Tarshop agreed to a Consumer Portfolio Securitization Program to secure its long – term financing, thus having direct access to the capital market.

Under this Securitization Program Tarshop S.A. transferred to The Financial Trusts the total amount of Ps. 2,199,800 as of March 31, 2009 of credits receivable originated in the use of its clients’ credits cards and personal loans carrying promissory notes. Consequently, T.D.F. Series “A” were issued for Ps.1,843,164, T.D.F. Series “B” for Ps.129,420, T.D.F. Serie “C” for Ps. 1,167, C.P. Series “C” for Ps. 213,989, and C.P. Series “D” for Ps. 12,060.

  5. New commercial development

Panamerican Mall S.A. (PAMSA), a company organized in November 2006 between Alto Palermo S.A. (APSA) and Centro Comercial Panamericano S.A. (CCP), with 80% and 20% interests, respectively, is currently developing a new commercial venture in the Saavedra area in Buenos Aires City.

This is one of the Company’s most important projects, and it includes the construction of a shopping center, a hypermarket, a cinema complex and an office building in the neighborhood of Saavedra, City of Buenos Aires. Dot Baires should become synonym with a meeting point, the “gateway” to the City of Buenos Aires. Dot Baires will be the largest shopping center in the City of Buenos Aires in terms of square meters. The project will have 13,193 square meters for a hypermaket and 37,890 square meters of leaseable area, including a 8,849 square meter anchor store. Its opening is scheduled for May 13, 2009.

Total contributions made by shareholders as regards this project amounts to Ps. 473,052 as of the closing date of these financial statements.

In February 2009, a court ruling provided a restriction to open the shopping mall until some works agreed upon by the Buenos Aires City Goverment and the previous owner of the plot of land where the work is carried out are performed. The Company was unable to carry out such works as the Buenos Aires City Goverment had not made available the plots of land or the project documentation required for such constructions. To date such restriction to open the shopping mall has been lifted by court order.

 

  6. Damages in Alto Avellaneda

On March 5, 2006 there was a fire in Alto Avellaneda Shopping produced by an electrical failure in one of the stores. Although there were neither injured persons nor casualties, there were serious property damages and the area as well as certain stores had to be closed for repairs. The total area damaged comprised 36 commercial stores and represented 15.7% of the total square meters built. Between the months of August and September 2006 this area was reopened and the operation returned to normal.

NOTE 1: ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

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

 

  1.1. Preparation and presentation of audited financial statements

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

Unification of professional accounting standards

The National Securities Commission has issued General Resolutions No. 485 and 487 on December 29, 2005 and January 26, 2006, respectively.

Such resolutions have adopted, with certain modifications, the new accounting standards recently issued by the Professional Consejo Profesional de Ciencias Economicas de La Ciudad Autonoma de Buenos Aires through its Resolution CD N° 93/2005. These standards are to the obligatorily applied for fiscal years or interim periods corresponding to periods started as from January 1, 2006.

The principal change that the application of these new standards has generated relates to the treatment of the adjustment for inflation in calculating the deferred tax which can be taken as a temporary difference, according to the Company’s criteria. At present the adjustment for inflation is considered as a permanent difference in the deferred income tax calculation. The Company in accordance with the new accounting standards has decided not to recognize the deferred liability generated by the effect of the adjustment for inflation on the fixed assets and other non-monetary assets. The estimated effect as of the date of the issuance of these unaudited financial statements that the adoption of the new criteria would have generated would be a decrease in shareholders’ equity of approximately Ps. 145 million which should be recorded in the income statement accounts of previous periods for Ps. 155.5 million (loss) and in the income statement accounts of the fiscal period Ps. 10.5 million (gain).

In accordance with the Company’s Management the potential effect that the new accounting standards would have in its subsidiary Banco Hipotecario S.A. would not be significant on the amount of the Company’s investment.

   Over 3
years
   Total

Amount in million

   16.8    7.8    7.6    112.8    145

 

  1.2. Use of estimates

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

 

  1.3. Recognition of the effects of inflation

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

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

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

  f. Other receivables and prepaid expenses and liabilities

Certain current receivables and liabilities have been valued at face value plus the financial results accrued at the closing of the corresponding period.

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

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

 

  h. Inventories

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

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

  1.5. (Continued)

 

  h. (Continued)

 

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

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

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

Credits in kind:

The Company has credits in kinds related to rights to receive certain property units to be built. The units have been valued according to the accounting measuring standards corresponding to inventories receivables and there have been disclosed under “Inventories”.

 

  i. Non-current investments

 

   

Investments in debt securities:

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

 

   

Investments in subsidiaries and afiliated companies:

Long term investments in subsidiaries and afiliated companies detailed in Exhibit C, have been valued by using the equity method of accounting based on the unaudited financial statements at March 31, 2009 issued by them. The accounting standards used by the subsidiaries to prepare their unaudited financial statements are the same as those used by the Company. The accounting standards used by the related companies to prepare their unaudited financial statements are those currently in effect.

  i. (Continued)

 

The Financial Statements of Banco Hipotecario S.A. and Banco de Crédito y Securitizatión S.A. are prepared in accordance with the Central Bank of the Argentine Republic (“BCRA”) standards. For the purpose of the valuation of the investment in the Company, adjustments necessary to adequate the financial statements to the professional accounting standards have been considered.

This item also includes the lower or higher value paid for the purchase of shares in subsidiaries and afiliated companies assignable to the assets acquired, and goodwill related to the subsidiary Alto Palermo S.A., Palermo Invest S.A., Pereiraola S.A.I.C.I.F.y A., Hoteles Argentinos S.A., Rummaala S.A., Manibil S.A., Canteras Natal Crespo S.A., Tyrus S.A. and the related company, Banco Hipotecario S.A..

 

   

Banco Hipotecario S.A.:

The Company has an important investment in Banco Hipotecario S.A. This investment is valued according to the equity method due to the significant influence of the economic group on the decisions of Banco Hipotecario S.A. and to the intention of keeping said investment on a permanent basis.

In accordance with the regulations of the BCRA and the contracts signed as a result of Banco Hipotecario S.A.’s financial debt restructuring process, there are certain restrictions on the distribution of profits by Banco Hipotecario S.A. to the Company.

 

   

Tyrus S.A.:

Uruguay-based Tyrus has been classified as not integrated into the Company’s operations because it is a company engaged in holding the shares pertaining to the investment in Metropolitan (See Note 21 A.4 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements) whose operations are carried out fully abroad. The Company does not control foreign operations, which are conducted with autonomy with respect to the Company’s own operations. Besides, such operations are mainly financed with funds originating in its own transactions or in local loans.

The Tyrus’s assets and liabilities were converted into Pesos at the exchange rate in force at the close of the period. The Statement of Income accounts have been converted into Pesos at the exchange rates in force at the time of each transaction. Foreign exchange gains/losses arising from the conversion have been charged to the Shareholders’ equity caption, in the line “Temporary translation differences” and they amounted to Ps. 14,967 as of March 31, 2009.

  i. (Continued)

 

The goodwill corresponding to the acquisition of the controlled company Tyrus S.A. has been measured at cost value, which was calculated as the difference between the amount paid for such investment and the book value of the ownership interest acquired. The Company is now following the procedures to analyze the current value of the assets and liabilities acquired for purposes of allocating the purchase value, in conformity with Technical Resolution No. 21.

 

   

Certificates of participation in IRSA I Financial Trust:

The certificates of participation in IRSA I Financial Trust have been valued at the amount resulting from apportioning the participation certificate holding to the trust assets.

 

   

Undeveloped parcels of lands:

The Company acquires undeveloped land in order to provide an adequate and well-located supply for its residential and office building operations. The Company’s strategy for land acquisition and development is dictated by specific market conditions where the Company conducts its operations.

Land held for development and sale and improvements are stated at cost restated as mentioned in Note 1.3. or market value, whichever is lower. As of June 30, 2008 the Company maintained allowances for impairment of certain parcels of undeveloped land for which their market value is lower than cost. (See Exhibit E). The amount charged to the Statement of Income to reflect the allowance for impairment and its reversal has been disclosed in the “Results from transactions and holdings of real estate assets” line of the Statement of Income.

Land and land improvements are transferred to inventories or fixed assets when construction commences or their trade is decided.

The values thus obtained, net of the allowances recorded, do not exceed their respective estimated recoverable values at the end of the period.

  j. Fixed assets, net

Fixed assets comprise primarily of rental properties and other properties and equipment held for use by the Company.

Fixed assets value, net of allowances set up, does not exceed estimated recoverable value at the end of the period/year.

 

   

Rental properties:

Rental properties are carried at acquisition and/or construction cost, restated as mentioned in Note 1.3., less accumulated depreciation and allowance for impairment at the end of the period. The Company capitalizes the financial costs accrued costs associated with long-term construction projects. During the period/year ended March 31, 2009 and June 30, 2008 financial costs were capitalized in the building known as “DIQUE IV” for Ps. 7,561 and Ps 109, respectively.

Accumulated depreciation is computed under the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of each asset. Expenditures for ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to results in the period incurred.

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

Significant renovations and improvements, which improve or extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized and depreciated over its estimated remaining useful life. At the time depreciable assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and the accumulated depreciation of the assets are eliminated from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss is disclosed in the unaudited statement of income.

  j. (Continued)

 

   

Other properties and equipment:

Other properties and equipment properties are carried at cost, restated as mentioned in Note 1.3., less accumulated depreciation at the end of the period. Accumulated depreciation is computed under the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as specified below:

 

Assets

  

Estimated useful life (years)

Leasehold improvements

   On contract basis

Furniture and fixtures

   10

Vehicles

   5

Machinery and equipment

   10

Computer equipment

   3

The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to expense as incurred.

The cost of significant renewals and improvements are added to the carrying amount of the respective assets. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts.

 

  k. Intangible assets, net

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

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

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

  1.5. (Continued)

 

  l. Business combinations

Entities purchased by the Company were recorded in line with the “acquisition method” set forth in Technical Resolution No. 18. All assets and liabilities acquired to third independent parties were adjusted to show their fair value. In To such extent, the Company identified the assets and liabilities acquired including intangible assets such as:

 

   

The estimated current value of the costs that the Company avoids incurring as a result of acquiring effective rent contracts, for which the estimated costs of entering into similar contracts were taken into account as well as other factors such as the geographical location and the size of the area rented. The value of the effective rent contracts is included in intangibles and it is amortized as a rental cost in the remaining initial term of each contract.

 

   

The value of the rent contracts acquired, for which the market conditions to the date of acquisition were taken into account as well as other factors including geographical location, size and location of the area rented in the building, profile and credit risk conditions of the lessees to determine if the rental contracts acquired have higher or lesser conditions to those of the market at the time of the acquisition. The current value of the difference between the contracts acquired under the terms of the contracts and the market conditions were taken into account, disclosing an asset or a liability (shown in Other liabilities) depending if the contracts acquired are higher or lesser to the market values.

The values thus determined should be amortized as an increase or decrease of the income for rentals during the remaining term of the respective contracts, including any renewal considered in the valuation. If a lessee terminates its rent contract, the non-amortized portion of the intangible assets will be recorded in the statement of income.

 

   

Relationships with clients. The items that the Company considered to assign value to such relationships include the nature and extension of the commercial relationships currently existing with lessees, growth prospects for development of new business, lessee’s credit qualities and renewal prospects. The Company has not identified any lessee with whom it has developed a type of relationship allowing the recognition of an intangible asset.

NOTE 1: (Continued)

 

  1.5. (Continued)

 

  l. (Continued)

 

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

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

In accordance with the terms of Technical Resolution 21, the difference between the price paid and the addition of the current values of the net assets acquired generate goodwill. If the value of identified tangible and intangible assets and liabilities exceeds the price paid, the intangible assets acquired are not recognized as they would cause an increase of the negative goodwill generated by these acquisitions at the time of the purchase. The goodwill generated due to an acquisition of net assets is shown in line with the tangible asset acquired. Amortizations have been calculated by the straight line method on the basis of the estimated useful life considering the weight average of the remaining useful life of the tangible assets acquired.

 

  m. Deferred financing cost

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

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

 

  n. Customer advances

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

  1.5. (Continued)

 

  o. Income tax

The Company has recognized the charge for income tax by the deferred tax liability method, recognizing timing differences between measurements of accounting and tax assets and liabilities (see Note 14).

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

 

  p. Minimum Presumed Income Tax (MPIT)

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

 

  q. Allowances and Provisions

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

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

The Company has estimated the recoverable value of rental properties based on their economic use value, which is determined based on estimated future cash flows discounted. For the rest of the assets (inventories and undeveloped parcels of land) the Company makes a comparison with market

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

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

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

  t. Revenue recognition

 

  t.1. Sales of properties

The Company records revenue from the sale of properties when all of the following criteria are met:

 

   

The sale has been consummated.

 

   

There is sufficient evidence to demonstrate the buyer’s ability and commitment to pay for the property.

 

   

The Company’s receivable is not subject to future subordination.

 

   

The Company has transferred the property to the buyer.

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

The Argentine Antitrust Commision decided that effectively the operation referred should be notified. The company challenged this opinion on the local courts.

 

NOTE 23: ADQUISITION OF MUSEO RENAULT

In December 2007 the Company acquired certain functional units of the “Palacio Alcorta” or “Museo Renault” (including current leases contracts) in the amount of US$ 3.2 million (Exhibit B).

NOTE 24: ORDINARY AND EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS HELD OCTOBER 31, 2008.

The Ordinary and Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders held October 31, 2008 decided to approve the following items:

-To apply 5% of the income for the year ended June 30, 2008 to the Legal Reserve;

-That the balance of the income accounts of the year be carried forward, entitling the Board of Directors to use the balance and free availability reserves for the purposes that follow, among other: appropriate dividends or provide for the acquisition of own shares. All this due to the financial crisis shown in the national and international markets from were it is clear the impact on the quotation prices of the Company values, which certainly do not agree with the Company´s reality. It is, therefore, essential to protect the shareholders´ interests from the sudden fluctuations of quotation prices;

-That the tax on personal assets levied on the shareholders and paid by the Company in its capacity as substitute responsible for up to Ps. 5,433, be fully absorbed by the Company as long as such decision is not modified by virtue of a meeting of shareholders;

 

NOTE 25: PURCHASE OF MANIBIL S.A.´S SHAREHOLDING

In May 2008, the Company bought a 49% shareholding in Manibil S.A. from Land Group S.A. Manibil S.A. had been created to transact business in real estate and construction and to carry out financial transactions and made contributions proportional to its shareholder possession for Ps 23.9 million.

During the nine-month period ended March 31, 2009, Cresud S.A.C.I.F. y A. (“Cresud”, a Company shareholder) acquired 68,712,008 additional shares of the Company. Consequently, Cresud´s share in the Company, either directly and indirectly through its subsidiary companies, amounts approximately to 54.01%.

NOTE 27: FINANCIAL AND CAPITAL MARKET SITUATION

During the last months, the world´s principal financial markets have suffered the impact of volatility conditions as well as lack of liquidity, credit and uncertainty. Consequently, stock-market rates showed a significant fall worldwide together with an evident economic deceleration also at world level. Although the central countries took immediate action on the matter, the future evolution of the international markets is uncertain, which produce direct effects on the quotation of financial assets, particularly shares, debt titles and investment funds.

As regards the Argentine Republic, stock-markets showed a pronounced downward trend in the price of public and private bonds and a rise in interest rates, country risk and rates of exchange.

The Company´s management is monitoring and evaluating the effects derived from the situations referred to above on the Company and subsidiaries in order to adopt in real time the necessary measures to soften the effects of the global situation.

In connection with the quotation value of shares issued of the Company and its subsidiary´s, the Company´s management reported that the quotation price of its shares has also been affected, in the understanding that such fall does not coincide with the Company´s equity reality or with its true economic situation but that it is a consequence of the current process through which national and international markets are undergoing.

Banco Hipotecario sustained significant losses in the period. However, as of the date hereof, it is in full compliance with the capital requirements laid down in the regulations that govern its functioning. Although Banco Hipotecario’s listed shares have shown a decline in value in the period, Management estimates that such decrease is not an indication of Banco Hipotecario’s current operating performance.

Notes to the unaudited financial statements (Continued)

 

NOTE 27: (Continued)

 

The factors considered by the Company include the following: (i) the reasons for such decrease in the quoted value (and whether they concern loan policies, interest rates or the market), (ii) the Company’s ability and willingness to maintain the investment for a period long enough to recover value, (iii) whether such decrease in value is significant to the Company, (iv) the historical behavior of the variables that caused such decline in value and (v) the Company’s business fundamentals. Testing for non-temporary impairments in value entails qualitative and quantitative processes subject to several risks and uncertainties. As of the date of these financial statements, Management estimates that the drop in the quoted value of shares is temporary.

 

NOTE 28 SALES OF REAL ESTATE

The company sold in different operations both during the last six-month period ended March 31, 2009 and as subsequent events office properties representative of 20,315 square meters of gross leasable area in IRSA´s portfolio, for a total of Ps. 201.3 million, of which Ps. 66.9 million correspond to operations perfected during the last six-month period and Ps 134.4 million to operations conducted in later form.

SUMMARY as of MARCH 31, 2009

Macroeconomic Context

The level of economic activity in Argentina has started to be adversely affected, mirroring the situation in other economies over the past months.

Regarding the performance of economic activity in Argentina, according to the most recently released official data available as of the date of this report and concerning the month of February 2009, the Monthly Estimate of Economic Activities (Estimador Mensual de la Actividad Económica, EMAE) shows a 2.1% growth compared to the same month of the previous fiscal year: this suggests that the Argentine economy has grown at a pace slower than in recent months.

When it comes to Public Finances, fiscal accounts, foreign trade current account balances and the reserves held by the Central Bank of Argentina (Banco Central de la República Argentina, BCRA), they have performed irregularly in recent months. Although at the end of calendar 2008 the Primary Result indicator had shown a 26.5% increase compared to the figure posted in calendar 2007, in the first quarter of 2009 this indicator dropped by 49% compared to the first quarter of 2008. The reason for such variation can be found in the deterioration of tax revenues because of the shrinkage in the level of activity and the decrease in the export values subject to withholdings. As regards the country’s external accounts, Argentina posted a US$ 3,556 million trade surplus during the first quarter of calendar 2009, equivalent to a 12.5% increase compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year, thus reverting the trend shown in the last quarter of calendar 2008. As a consequence, BCRA maintains a strong position in terms of reserves and succeeded in accumulating as of March 31, 2009, a level of US$ 46,509 million. It is thanks to these reserves that the Central Bank has the capability of dealing with the increased volatility in the capital inflows and outflows caused by the uncertainty prevailing in the financial markets.

As regards the various sectors of the economy, the main indicators show a certain slow-down in the pace of growth of activities. As concerns the construction industry, according to the data shown by the Indicator of Construction Activities (Indicador Sintético de la Actividad de la Construcción, ISAC) prepared by the National Institute of Statistics and Censuses (Instituto Nacional de Estadísticas y Censos, INDEC), its activities have dropped by 2.7% for the period January-March 2009 compared to the same period of the previous fiscal year, whereas in calendar 2008 such indicator has grown by 5%. As regards retail sales, sales in supermarkets and shopping centers have grown by 21.9% and 1.6% respectively in the first quarter of the calendar year compared to the same quarter of the previous fiscal year whereas during calendar 2008 these sales grew by 34.6% and by 22%.

As regards the residential real estate market, the scenario of uncertainty has caused a slow-down in the number of transactions in the first quarter of the year compared to the same quarter in the previous year. However, the prices of the housing units remain relatively stable. It is clear though that there are no expectations in Argentina that a sub-prime mortgage loan crisis may affect the values of housing units as has been the case in other economies because home mortgage loans in the Argentine market remain at hardly 2% of the country’s GDP.

As concerns the office rental market in Buenos Aires, and according to Colliers, since the end of 2008 and as a result of the changes occurred in the economic scenario, competition started based on prices in order to capture demand. The average prices offered were still in January 2009 higher than those offered in 2007 though lower than those offered in June 2008, as this month had marked a peak in prices.

As regards the Hotel sector, according to data released by the Tourism Secretariat in connection with the International Tourism Poll (Encuesta de Turismo International, ETI) as of February 2009, the number of tourists arriving in Argentina (accumulated over twelve months) is 3% smaller than for the same accumulated period in the previous year.

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

The economy’s various sectors and their markets are starting to show a gap between the strength of their real assets (considered either in terms of value and/or cash generation capacity) and the value of the instruments representative of such assets (as would be the case of bonds or shares) and our companies are not alien to that situation.

Comment on operations during the quarter ended on March 31, 2009

Our revenues amounted to Ps.832.0 million as of March 31, 2009, compared to Ps.828.5 million as of March 31, 2008. The share of the Company’s various segments in net revenues was as follows: sales and developments decreased by 21.7% to Ps.137.1 million, offices and other rental properties increased by 46.1% to Ps.106.6 million, shopping centers increased by 12.5% to Ps.283.6 million, hotels increased by 10.5% to Ps.127.1 million, consumer finance decreased by 17.4% to Ps. 175.7 million whereas financial operations and other posted revenues for Ps.1.8 million.

Our operating income decreased by 37.8% to Ps. 139.2 million for the nine-month period ended on March 31, 2009 compared to Ps.223.7 million for the same period of the previous fiscal year, mainly due to the operating losses recorded in the consumer finance segment. Excluding the effect of this segment, the operating income of the other segments increased by 22.1% from Ps.212.5 million to Ps. 259.4 million.

As regards financial results, they entailed a Ps.207.3 million loss for the nine-month period ended on March 31, 2009, compared to a loss of Ps.74.0 million in the same period of fiscal 2008, largely explained by the fluctuations in the exchange rate applied for valuing the Company’s stock of debt as of the closing date.

Finally, the results from related companies showed a loss of Ps.62.9 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2009 compared to a Ps.16.5 million loss in the same period of fiscal 2008 due to losses in our related company Banco Hipotecario S.A. caused mainly by the decrease in the valuation of its portfolio of financial assets resulting from the current financial conditions.

Given the above, the net result for the nine-month period ended on March 31, 2009 shrank to a Ps.106.2 million loss in contrast to income for Ps.22.9 million for the same period of the previous fiscal year.

Highlights for the third quarter of fiscal year 2009, including significant situations occurred after the end of the period

I. Offices and Other Rental Properties

During the first nine-month period of fiscal 2009, income from rental properties totaled Ps.106.6 million, a 46.0% increase compared to the figure of Ps.73.0 million recorded in the same period of fiscal year 2008.

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

Occupancy levels at our offices were 96.3% at the end of the nine-month period of fiscal 2009, including the Edificio Republica building, which is under the process of being absorbed by the market.

Sale of Properties. Along the fiscal year, and after the nine-month period ended in March 2009, the Company executed sales deeds over 19,371 square meters of gross leasable area represented by some of its non-core office assets in several transactions that totaled US$ 52.0 million. These transactions involve seven functional units in Edificio Dock del Plata representative of 3,739 square meters of gross leasable area; a commercial property in Puerto Madero, named Crucero I and representative of 192 square meters of gross leasablea area, 5 functional units at Edificio Libertador 498 representative of 3,099 square meters of gross leasable area; one functional unit in the building located in Av. Madero 942 representative of 768 square meters of gross leasable area; 5 floors in the building Edificio Laminar Plaza, representative of 6,520 square meters of gross leasable area; 3 parking lot spaces at the building located in Madero 1020 representative of 37 square meters of gross leasable area and the building located in Reconquista street, representative of 5,016 square meters of gross leasable area. These decisions not only allow the company to increase its financial strength, but also allows it to refocus on the execution of potential business opportunities coming into our portfolio. (See references to Dique IV and PAMSA Offices below).

Edificio República. We continue with the process of makeing the square meters incorporated into our portfolio through the acquisition of Edificio República: at the end of the third quarter we had attained a 64.8% occupancy level.

Dique IV, Puerto Madero. We have completed the construction of 11,000 square meters of gross leaseable area in Dique IV, Puerto Madero. Therefore, we have entered into a lease agreement for eight office floors spanning more than 10,000 square meters with a top-notch lessee: the effective date of such lease is subject to compliance with certain technical and operational matters associated to the operation of the building.

PAMSA Offices. Our subsidiary APSA is developing an office building in the intersection of Av. Gral Paz and Panamericana through Panamerican Mall S.A. as referenced later on in this document.

Below is detailed information on our office space as of March 31, 2009.

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

The following information relates to data extracted from the balance sheet of our subsidiary Alto Palermo S.A. (APSA), the company that operates our shopping center business, in which we had a 63.3% interest as of March 31, 2009.

In the nine-month period ended on March 31, 2009 our tenants’ sales amounted to Ps. 3,033.7 million. In nominal terms, these are 13.2% higher than those posted for the same period of the previous fiscal year.

The business success of our tenants allows us to maintain the occupancy rates at our Shopping Centers at 98.93%.

DOT BAIRES. This is one of the Company’s most important projects, and it includes the construction by Panamerican Mall S.A. of a shopping center, a hypermarket, a cinema complex and an office building in the neighborhood of Saavedra, City of Buenos Aires. Our aspiration is that Dot Baires should become synonym with a meeting point, the “gateway” to the City of Buenos Aires. Dot Baires will be the largest shopping center in the City of Buenos Aires in terms of square meters. The project will have 13,000 square meters for a hypermaket and 37,855 square meters of leaseable area, including a 9,000 square meter anchor store.

We are presently working on the launch of Dot Baires, scheduled for May 13.

Coto Residential Project. On September 24, 1997 we executed a public deed whereby we acquired the rights to receive parking spaces and to perform additional construction works in the real property located on the intersection of Agüero, Lavalle, Guardia Vieja and Gallo streets, in the Abasto neighborhood. On July 31, 2008, we executed a conditional barter agreement whereby we would transfer to CYRSA S.A. (CYRSA) 112 parking spaces and the right to perform additional construction works for developing two tower buildings in the property mentioned above, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. As consideration, Cyrsa would deliver to us an amount to be determined in the future of the units comprising the building that would be constructed equivalent to 25% of the square meters, totaling not less than four thousand and five three units with an exclusive area of fifty square meters each. The consummation of this barter is conditioned to the performance of certain material acts by Coto. Possession of the property will be delivered simultaneously with the deed of conveyance of title, which will take place 30 days after the date we give notice to CYRSA of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent. The total amount of the transaction between Cyrsa and the Company amounts to US$ 5.9 million.

Beruti Plot. Before the closing of the previous fiscal year, Alto Palermo S.A. acquired a plot of land located in Beruti 3351/9, in the neighborhood of Palermo, City of Buenos Aires. The plot has an area of 3,207 square meters and was purchased for US$ 17.8 million. The importance of this acquisition relies on the property’s strategic location, as it is very close to our major shopping center, Shopping Alto Palermo.

At present we are evaluating the different uses that may be given to this property.

Consumer Finance – Tarshop S.A. Subsidiary

In recent months, and as a result of the international financial context, we faced the need to review economic prospects in general and to revise the company’s business prospects in particular: several decisions were made, all aimed at strengthening the business in the face of the prevailing economic situation.

To face the growing volatility in the international financial scenario and to provide Tarshop S.A. with a suitable capital base taking into account the current market conditions, in September 2008 APSA decided to take part in Tarshop S.A.’s capital increase for up to Ps.60 million, and increased its equity stake in Tarshop S.A. from 80% to 93.4%. The structure costs associated to points of sales were downsized through a 17% cutback, the reduction of 13 points of sales and the leased centralized area by 10% of the total.

In line with the commercial actions, various other measures have been implemented, including:

(i) Redesign of the distribution channel structure.

(ii) Changes in cash lending plans and merchant financing.

(iii) Renegotiation of conditions with merchants.

(iv) Streamlining of lending and collection policies.

(v) Revision of provisioning policies, aimed at establishing an even stricter criterion than the one suggested by the Central Bank.

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2009, Tarshop received financial assistance for an amount of Ps. 105 million, subsequently accepted as irrevocable contribution, for the purpose of strengthening its equity position, improving its financial position and repositioning Tarshop S.A., given the complex situation prevailing in the financial trust market in which part of its activity is engaged and its extremely low capitalization relative to its competitors.

Considering the situation described in the preceding paragraphs, the loan portfolio, including coupons securitized as of March 31, 2009 amounted to Ps. 643.8 million, that is, 29.3% smaller than the Ps. 910.7 million portfolio held as of March 31, 2008.

In addition, as regards collections, the 90-day delinquency rate as of March 31, 2009 amounted to 9.2%.

Therefore, net revenues went down a 17.4% from Ps. 212.7 million for the nine-month period ended March 31, 2008, to Ps. 175.7 million for the same period of the current fiscal year. Gross profit stood at Ps. 78.5 million and the operating loss was Ps. 120.2 million, which reflects a decrease when compared to the Ps. 11.1 million income obtained in the nine-month period ended on March 31, 2008. Net loss for the nine-month period ended on March 31, 2009 was Ps. 66.9 million.

The ensuing operating result for the quarter ended March 2009 was a Ps. 9.4 million loss, which reveals a reduction in losses if we take into consideration the Ps. 73.7 million and Ps. 37.1 million operating losses respectively posted in the first and second quarter of fiscal 2009. This is due to the improved capitalization combined with the relative stabilization in local financial markets, a reduction in loan loss charges and a decrease in operating expenses.

However, we will continue to work in improving Tarshop S.A.’s performance and in readying it to face the conditions currently prevailing in the market.

III. Sales and Developments

In the nine-month period ended March 31, 2009, revenues in the sales and developments segment amounted to Ps.137.1 million, compared to Ps.175.2 million for the same period of the previous fiscal year. The following paragraphs describe the Company’s major developments:

Caballito. On May 4, 2006 we entered into a US$7.5 million swap agreement with Koad S.A. (Koad) whereby we transferred title of block 36 of the property “Terrenos de Caballito” to Koad in order for it to develop at its sole expense, cost and risk, a complex known as “Caballito Nuevo”. The construction works have already started, and include two apartment towers of 34 floors each, with 1, 2 and 3 room units of 40 to 85 sqm. surface area, including a wide variety of amenities and services. In consideration for it, Koad paid to us US$0.05 million while the US$7.45 million balance will be repaid through the delivery of 118 apartment units and 55 parking spaces. The final number of units to be received will depend on the date of actual delivery by Koad, as the agreement provides for rewards based on terms of delivery. At present, this project is in the last development stage. Marketing started in December 2008, and from January 2009 to the date of this release, preliminary sales agreements for 31 units and for 9 parking spaces have been executed.

 

125


Solares de Santa Maria, City of Buenos Aires, (formerly Santa María del Plata). The Urban Development Solares de Santa María has reached the Draft Project level, and feasibility studies have been filed with the utility companies. An agreement is being reached with the Government of the City of Buenos Aires to send a mutually acceptable Bill of Law and Agreement to the Legislature of the City of Buenos Aires for its consideration and approval.

Horizons residential project. IRSA-CYRELA is developing one of the most significant developments in Greater Buenos Aires in a plot made up by two adjacent blocks located in the Vicente López neighborhood, which will entail a new concept in residential complexes given its emphasis on the use of common spaces. This project includes two complexes, one in each block, with a total of six buildings; a complex facing the river with three 14-story buildings and another complex on Avenida del Libertador with three 17-story buildings, totaling 59,000 own square meters for sales and 110,000 square meters in total construction distributed into 467 units. The showroom was opened to the public in March 2008 quite successfully as the units have all been reserved. As of the date of these financial statements, preliminary sales agreements had been executed for 99% of the own units subject to sale and results will be reflected as progress is made in the execution of the works, consolidated at 50%. The units will be completed and delivered by early 2011.

As of April 30, 2009, the degree of progress of the works corresponding to this project is approximately 2.03% for the “Parque” proyect and 19.16% for the “Rio” proyect.

Terreno Caballito, CYRSA. As of the closing of fiscal year 2008, we and CYRSA executed a barter deed pursuant to which we transferred to CYRSA under a swap agreement the property described below, which has a total surface area of 9,784 square meters: plot of land, designated as Parcel ONE L, in block 35, facing Méndez de Andes street between Rojas and Colpayo streets in the Caballito neighborhood.

In turn, CYRSA agreed to carry out in the property a real estate development for residential use, which shall comprise a first stage of two free-perimeter towers and a third building to be developed in a second stage at the option of CYRSA. In exchange for the transfer of the property, CYRSA paid to IRSA US$ 0.12 million and agreed to make a non-cash consideration consisting in transferring under barter to IRSA certain home units in the buildings to be built which will represent 25% of the meters.

IV. Hotels

Income from the hotel segment rose by 10.5%, up from Ps. 115.1 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2008 to Ps. 127.1 million for the same period in fiscal 2009.

This was mainly due to the increase in the average rate, which in the first nine-month period of fiscal 2009 reached an average Ps.642 per room rate, compared to Ps.619 in the previous period whereas average occupancy was 73.9% compared to 75.7% for the same period in the previous fiscal year. This slight drop in the occupancy average can be attributed to Hotel Llao-Llao, whose average occupancy level for the nine-month period ended March 2009 was 60.6%.

The following table shows information regarding our hotels for the nine-month period as of March 31, 2009.

VII. Brief comment on prospects for the next quarter

The deceleration of the economy has started to take its toll on the level of income derived from business activities in general, and our business segments do not stand aloof from this reality.

However, as concerns our Shopping Center segment in particular, our various shopping centers are uniquely attractive to our tenants, as has been shown by their willingness to join the new project that we expect to launch in the coming days: More than 94% of the leasable area of Dot Baires (the shopping center at Av. Gral. Paz. and Panamericana) has already been taken. We believe that given its location and commercial proposal, Dot Baires will add substantial value to our portfolio.

Another important component of our commercial strategy for maintaining the attractiveness of our shopping centers consists in launching marketing campaigns to attract customers and nationally and internationally recognized tenants. Therefore, we will continue to promote tenant diversification and to promote the participation of top brands in our shopping centers so as to offer our consumers the best products in the market. In this way, brands such as Salvatore Ferragamo, North Face and Starbucks have recently joined our proposal.

 

130


As concerns our Consumer Finance business, we will continue to take actions on those areas that call for an improvement in this segment’s operating and financial performance, taking measures aimed at stabilizing the business in light of the present economic scenario.

As concerns our lease office segment in Buenos Aires, we have recently noted certain caution among potential lessees regarding decisions to lease larger areas. However, we have agreed on a lease for our most recent addition to our portfolio, the Dique IV office building.

Regarding the Sales and Development segment, we will continue to make progress in the execution of the first project launched through the IRSA-CYRELA vehicle, in which sales have been booked for almost 100% of the units and work progress may be already perceived. As concerns our other future ventures, we will continue evaluating the appropriate moment to launch these projects.

Limited Review Report

To the Shareholders, President and Board of Directors of

IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones Sociedad Anónima

C.U.I.T.: 30-52532274-9

Legal address: Bolívar 108 – 1st floor

Autonomus City of Buenos Aires

 

1. We have reviewed the balance sheet of IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones Sociedad Anónima at March 31, 2009, and the related statements of income, of changes in shareholders’ equity and of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 and the supplementary notes 1 to 29 and exhibits A to I. Furthermore, we have reviewed the consolidated balance sheet of IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones Sociedad Anónima with its subsidiaries at March 31, 2009, and the consolidated statements of income and of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, which are presented as supplementary information. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.

 

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