-- The profit before tax for the period was GBP56.6 million (2016: GBP65.1 million) after accounting for the net valuation gain on investment properties of GBP29.5 million (2016: GBP38.6 million).

-- The property portfolio has been valued by the Directors based on the recommendations of the Group's external advisers and continues to show modest growth in both the UK and USA.

-- We continue to see some increase in rental income in the UK and USA. The reduction in the sterling/dollar exchange rate in this period has resulted in USA reported rental income increasing by GBP1.5 million (2016: GBP2.4 million).

-- Since the Brexit referendum the UK has been dominated by political and economic uncertainty which has led to reduced forecasts for economic growth. This combination of factors will provide a challenging environment for our UK business. In the USA the economic outlook is more encouraging and should provide a positive environment to grow our business.

-- The principal risk factors affecting the remainder of the financial year continue to be exposure to movements in the valuation of the Group's investment properties, movements in the sterling/dollar exchange rate and the incidence of voids and bad debts.

-- An interim dividend of 35p per share will be paid on 9 March 2018 to shareholders on the register on 9 February 2018.

Notes to the Consolidated Interim Financial Statements for the six months ended 30 September 2017

   1.   Basis of preparation 

This interim financial information has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 Interim Financial Reporting, applying the accounting policies and presentation that were applied in the preparation of the Company's published consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2017. The Directors have considered the result of the endorsement by the EU of new or changed International Financial Reporting Standards that are applicable or available for early adoption in the preparation of the Company's next consolidated financial statements for the year ending 31 March 2018 and concluded that they have no material effect on either the current or prior periods.

The Directors have reviewed the current and projected financial position of the Group and are satisfied that the Group has adequate resources to cover current liabilities. Therefore, the Directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the half year report.

   2.   Status of the interim financial information 

The interim financial information in this statement has not been audited or reviewed by auditors pursuant to the Auditing Practices Board guidance on review of interim financial information and does not constitute statutory accounts, as defined in section 435 of the Companies Act 2006. The auditors' report on the statutory accounts for the year ended 31 March 2017 was unqualified and did not contain a statement under section 498 of the Companies Act 2006. Statutory accounts for the year ended 31 March 2017 have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The interim financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 28 November 2017. The preparation of the interim financial information requires management to make assumptions and estimates about future events which are uncertain, the actual outcome of which may result in a materially different outcome from that anticipated.

   4.   Taxation 

The tax charge in the interim statement is in line with the UK statutory rate. The higher rate on our US generated profits is offset by an indexation credit on the UK deferred property valuation gains.

   5.   Dividends 

No dividends were paid in the six months ended 30 September 2017 (six months ended 30 September 2016: GBPNil).

   6.   Investment properties 

The Directors have estimated the value of the investment properties at 30 September 2017 after consultation with the Group's advisers. A full valuation of the Group's properties will be carried out by independent professional valuers at 31 March 2018.

   7.   Financial Instruments - fair value disclosure 

The Group seeks to reduce interest rate risk by fixing rates on the majority of its loans and borrowings, either through the use of fixed rate mortgage finance or through interest rate swaps. The Group does not speculate in treasury products.

The Group does not hedge account and all its mortgages and interest rate swaps are initially recognised at fair value. Mortgages are subsequently recorded at amortised cost whilst interest rate swaps are subsequently recorded at fair value, with any movement being recorded in the consolidated income statement. The fair values of all these financial instruments are determined by reference to observable inputs that are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy set out in International Financial Reporting Standard 13 Fair Value Measurement. Fair values have been determined by discounting expected future cash flows using market interest rates and yield curves over the remaining term of the instrument, as adjusted to reflect the credit risk attributable to the Group and, where relevant, its counterparty.

Fair value measurements are as follows:
