INTERIM RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 JUNE 2002
Property Fund Management plc is the only fully quoted property fund manager
specialising in establishing and acting for institutional funds focused on
management intensive industrial property both within the UK and Europe. PFM
gained its listing in May 2002 through a Placing that raised #4.797m net of
expenses.
HIGHLIGHTS
* First results since flotation in May 2002
* Turnover more than doubled at #4.725m - up from #2.293m
* Pre-tax profits of #866,000 against losses of #420,000
* Interim dividend of 1.5p a share declared
* PFM now manages #729m of gross property assets - #541m in UK and #188m
(Euro298m) in Europe
* Funding in place to take property under management to over #1bn
* Joint venture company established with Grupo Lar Grosvenor to research
Spanish industrial property market
CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
The Board of Property Fund Management plc is pleased to announce its interim
results for the six months ended 30 June 2002.
These first results following our successful flotation on 22 May 2002 show
continued improvement in our business performance, and particularly justify the
high level of investment in our European infrastructure over the last few years.
The Group's flotation was the most significant event in the first half, dealings
commenced on 22 May and we raised #4.797m net of expenses. We trade profitably
and cash generatively and this money is earmarked for seed capital in a number
of new funds we have under discussion and negotiation.
The Group made profits before tax of #866,000 (2001: #420,000 loss) on turnover
of #4.725m (2001: #2.293m). Turnover rose substantially in the first half,
largely due to the fees generated by our investment programme in The European
Industrial Partnership and The Industrial Trust. The increased assets under our
management have added to our core management fees.
The Group's cost base has increased over the same period last year as a result
of the strengthened European team to administer the growth in European
activities. We anticipate that this level will be maintained prior to increasing
further due to additional areas of activity and territories of operation.
We are pleased to declare a dividend of 1.5 pence per share which will be
payable on 30 September 2002 to shareholders on the register at 20 September
2002.
Glyn Hirsch
Executive Chairman

CHIEF EXECUTIVE'S REVIEW
The trend for institutional indirect investment in property is now well
established and specialist managers like Property Fund Management are well
placed to service this demand. The asset class in which we specialise continues
to provide high income yield and stable long term returns which are extremely
attractive in the current economic environment and our in-house systems continue
to provide us with privileged access to market opportunities.
The management of The European Industrial Partnership is carried out through our
joint venture offices in France, Germany and the Netherlands. These are
corporate entities owned 50% by the company and 50% by the in-territory local
management. Our profit and loss account therefore shows our 50% share of the
joint venture's operating profits.
The Industrial Trust in the UK and The European Industrial Partnership are both
in acquisition phase and the benefits of our "Road Runner" system (direct stock
sourcing) have continued to help us to access markets in the UK and Europe on
behalf of our investors. In the UK acquisitions totalled #68.4m and in Europe
totalled #79.1m(Euro 125.5m).
In addition we completed several single client mandates on behalf of
institutions in the UK. In aggregate these amounted to #39.6m of gross property
assets.
The Development Fund partnerships have benefited from good occupier take up in
the South East of England, with particularly strong interest in unit sales.
Preliminary research continues into expansion territories for European
activities and the period saw the signing of a joint venture agreement with
Grupo Lar Grosvenor based in Madrid.
We are currently in active negotiation on a number of asset purchases both in
the UK and Europe for institutional investors where these assets do not meet the
investment criteria of our existing managed funds. These opportunities have the
potential to expand our assets under management substantially.
At today's date we manage #729m of gross property assets, #541m in the UK and
#188m (Euro298m) in Europe, with funding in place to increase this to over #1bn.
The current level of property under offer and in negotiation indicate that we
are ahead of target for full subscription in both The Industrial Trust in the UK
and The European Industrial Partnership.
We are growing funds under management and maintaining cost control, which should
provide future growth for our shareholders.
During this very busy period we would like to thank our employees, advisers and
investors for their high levels of support.

INDEPENDENT REVIEW REPORT TO PROPERTY FUND MANAGEMENT PLC
We have been instructed by the company to review the financial information for
the six months ended 30 June 2002 which comprise the Group Profit and Loss
Account, the Group Balance Sheet, the Group Cash Flow Statement and the related
notes. We have read the other information contained in the interim report and
considered whether it contains any apparent misstatements or material
inconsistencies with the financial information.
Directors' responsibilities
The interim report, including the financial statements contained therein, is the
responsibility of, and has been approved by the directors. The directors are
responsible for preparing the interim report in accordance with the Listing
Rules of the Financial Services Authority which require that the accounting
policies and presentation applied to the interim figures should be consistent
with those applied in preparing the preceding annual accounts except where any
changes, and the reasons for them, are disclosed.
Review work performed
We conducted our review in accordance with guidance contained in Bulletin 1999/4
issued by the Auditing Practices Board. A review consists principally of making
enquiries of management and applying analytical procedures to the financial
information and underlying financial data and based thereon, assessing whether
the accounting policies and presentation have been consistently applied and
adequately disclosed. A review excludes audit procedures such as tests of
controls and verification of assets, liabilities and transactions. It is
substantially less in scope than an audit performed in accordance with Auditing
Standards and therefore provides a lower level of assurance than an audit.
Accordingly we do not express an audit opinion on the financial information.
Review conclusion
On the basis of our review we are not aware of any material modifications that
should be made to the financial information as presented for the six months
ended 30 June 2002.
