Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
(Amounts in millions, except otherwise indicated)
Free translation from the original prepared in Spanish for publication in Argentina
 
1.
The Group’s business and general information
 
These Financial Statements have been approved for issuance by the Board of Directors, on November 7, 2018.
 
IRSA was founded in 1943, and it is engaged in a diversified range of real estate activities in Argentina since 1991. IRSA and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to hereinafter as “the Group”. Cresud is our direct parent company and IFIS Limited is our ultimate parent company.
 
The Group has established two Operations Centers, Argentina and Israel, to manage its global business, mainly through the following companies:
  (*) See note 4.G. to the Annual Financial Statements for more information about the changes within the Operations Center in Israel.

Summary of significant accounting policies
 
2.1.
Basis of preparation
 
The CNV, in Title IV "Periodic Information Regime" - Chapter III "Rules relating to the presentation and valuation of financial statements" - Article 1, of its standards, has established the application of the Technical Resolution No. 26 (RT 26) of the FACPCE and its amendments, which adopt IFRS, issued by the IASB, for certain companies included in the public offering regime of Law No. 26,831, either because of its stock or its non-convertible notes, or that have requested authorization to be included in the aforementioned regime.
 
Also, in Article 3 of the aforementioned CNV regulations, it is established that "The companies subject to the Commission's control cannot apply the method of restating financial statements in a homogeneous currency."
 
For the preparation of these financial statements, the Group has made use of the option provided by IAS 34, and has prepared them in a condensed form. Therefore, these financial statements do not include all the information required in a complete set of annual financial statements and, consequently, it is recommended that they be read together with the annual financial statements as of June 30, 2018.
 
In view of what has been mentioned in the preceding paragraphs, Group’s management has prepared these financial statements in accordance with the accounting principles established by the CNV, which are based on the application of IFRS, in particular of IAS 34, with the only exception to the application of IAS 29 (which determines the mandatory restatement of financial statements), excluded by the CNV from its accounting framework.

Additionally, the information required by the CNV indicated in article 1, Chapter III, Title IV of General Resolution N° 622/13 has been included. Such information is included in a note to these financial statements.
 
IAS 29 "Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies" requires that the financial statements of an entity whose functional currency is one of a hyperinflationary economy be expressed in terms of the current unit of measurement at the closing date of the reporting period, regardless of whether they are based on the historical cost method or the current cost method. To do so, in general terms, the inflation produced from the date of acquisition or from the revaluation date, as applicable, must be calculated for non-monetary items. This requirement also includes the comparative information of the financial statements.
 
In order to conclude on whether an economy is categorized as high inflation in the terms of IAS 29, the standard details a series of factors to be considered, including the existence of an accumulated inflation rate in three years that approximates to or exceeds 100%. Accumulated inflation in Argentina in three years is over 100%. It is for this reason that, in accordance with IAS 29, Argentina has a high inflation economy starting July 1, 2018. In turn, on July 24, 2018, the FACPCE, issued a communication confirming the aforementioned. However, it must be taken into account that, at the time of issuance of these financial statements, National Executive Decree 664/03 is in force, which does not allow the presentation of restated financial statements before the CNV. Therefore, given this decree, and the regulatory framework of the CNV, the Group's management has not applied IAS 29 in the preparation of these financial statements.
 
In an inflationary period, any entity that maintains an excess of monetary assets over monetary liabilities, will lose purchasing power, and any entity that maintains an excess of monetary liabilities over monetary assets, will gain purchasing power, provided that such items are not subject to an adjustment mechanism.
 
Briefly, the restatement method of IAS 29 establishes that monetary assets and liabilities must not be restated since they are already expressed in the current unit of measurement at the end of the reporting period. Assets and liabilities subject to adjustments based on specific agreements must be adjusted in accordance with such agreements. The non-monetary items measured at their current values at the end of the reporting period, such as the net realization value or others, do not need to be restated. The remaining non-monetary assets and liabilities must be restated by a general price index. The loss or gain from the net monetary position will be included in the net result of the reporting year / period, revealing this information in a separate line item.
 
2.2.
Significant accounting policies
 
The accounting policies applied in the presentation of these Financial Statements are consistent with those applied in the preparation of the Annual Financial Statements, as described in Note 2 to those Financial Statements except for what it’s mentioned in Note 2.1 to the present Financial Statements.
 
As described in Note 2.2 to the Annual Financial Statements, the Group adopted IFRS 15 “Revenues from contracts with customers” and IFRS 9 “Financial instruments” in the present fiscal year using the cumulative effect approach, so that the cumulative impact of the adoption was recognized in the retained earnings at the beginning of the period, and the comparative figures have not been modified due to this adoption.
 
The main changes are the following:
 
IFRS 15: Revenues from contracts with customers
 
The standard introduces a new five-step model for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers:
1.
Identifying the contract with the customer.
2.
Identifying separate performance obligations in the contract.
3.
Determining the transaction price.
4.
Allocating the transaction price to separate performance obligations.
5.
Recognizing revenue when the performance obligations are satisfied.
 
 
 
 
8
IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones Sociedad Anónima
 
 
IFRS 9: Financial instruments
 
The new standard includes a new model of "expected credit loss" for receivables or other assets not measured at fair value. The new model presents a dual measurement approach for impairment: if the credit risk of a financial asset has not increased significantly since its initial recognition, an allowance for impairment will be recorded in the amount of expected credit losses resulting from the possible non- compliance events within a certain period. If the credit risk has increased significantly, in most cases the allowance will increase and the amount of the expected losses should be recorded.
 
In accordance with the new standard, in cases where a change in terms or exchange of financial liabilities is immaterial and does not lead, at the time of analysis, to the reduction of the previous liability and recognition of the new liability, the new cash flows must be discounted at the original effective interest rate, recording the impact of the difference between the present value of the financial liability that has the new terms and the present value of the original financial liability in net income.
 
The effect on the income statement for the three-month period ended September 30, 2018 for the first implementation of IFRS 15 is as follows:

2.3.
Comparability of information
 
Balance items as of June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017 presented in these Unaudited Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for comparative purposes arise from the financial statements as of and for such periods. Certain items from prior periods have been reclassified for consistency purposes regarding the loss of control in Shufersal. See note 4.G. to the Annual Financial Statements.
 
2.4.
Use of estimates
 
The preparation of Financial Statements at a certain date requires Management to make estimations and evaluations affecting the amount of assets and liabilities recorded and contingent assets and liabilities disclosed at such date, as well as income and expenses recorded during the period. Actual results might differ from the estimates and evaluations made at the date of preparation of these financial statements. In the preparation of these financial statements, the significant judgments made by Management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the main sources of uncertainty were the same as the ones applied by the Group in the preparation of the Annual Financial Statements described in Note 3 to those Financial Statements.
 
3.
Seasonal effects on operations
 
Operations Center in Argentina
 
The operations of the Group’s shopping malls are subject to seasonal effects, which affect the level of sales recorded by lessees. During summer time in Argentina (January and February), the lessees of shopping malls experience the lowest sales levels in comparison with the winter holidays (July) and Christmas and year-end holidays celebrated in December, when they tend to record peaks of sales. Apparel stores generally change their collections during the spring and the fall, which impacts positively on shopping malls sales. Sale discounts at the end of each season also affect the business. As a consequence, for shopping mall operations, a higher level of business activity is expected in the period ranging between July and December, compared to the period between January and June.

Operations Center in Israel
 
The results of operations of telecommunications and tourism are usually affected by seasonality in summer months in Israel and by the Jewish New Year, given a higher consumption due to internal and external tourism.
 
4.
Acquisitions and disposals
 
Significant acquisitions and disposals for the three-month period ended September 30, 2018 are detailed below. Significant acquisitions and disposals for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, are detailed in Note 4 to the Annual Financial Statements.
 
Operations Center in Israel
 
Possible sale of a subsidiary of IDB Tourism
 
On August 14, 2018, the Board of Directors of IDB Tourism approved its engagement in a memorandum of understanding for the sale of 50% of the issued share capital of a company which manages the incoming tourism operation which is held by Israir for a total consideration of NIS 26 million (approximately Ps. 295 as of the date of issuance of these financial statements). The closing of the transaction is expected by November 30, 2018. This transaction does not change the intentions of selling the whole investment in IDBT, which the management of the company expects to complete before June 2019.
 
Partial sale of Clal
 
On August 30, 2018 continuing with the instructions given by the Commissioner of Capital Markets, Insurance and Savings of Israel, IDBD has sold 5% of its stake in Clal through a swap transaction in the same conditions that applied to the swap transactions performed in the preceding months of May and August 2017, January and May 2018 described in Note 4 to the Annual Consolidated Financial Statements. The consideration was set at an amount of approximately NIS 173 million (equivalent to approximately Ps. 1,766 as of the transaction date). After the completion of the transaction, IDBD’s interest in Clal was reduced to 29.8% of its share capital.
 
Agreement to sell plot of land in USA
 
In August 2018, a subsidiary of IDBG signed an agreement to sell a plot of land next to the Tivoli project in Las Vegas for a consideration of US$ 18 (approximately Ps. 739 as of the date of issuance of these financial statements).
 
Interest increase in DIC
 
On July 5, 2018 Tyrus acquired 2,062,000 of DIC’s shares in the market for a total amount of NIS 20 (equivalent to Ps. 227 as of that date), which represent 1.35% of the Company’s outstanding shares at such date. As a result of this transaction, the Group’s equity interest has increased from 76.57% to 77.92%. This transaction was accounted for as an equity transaction generating an increase in the net equity attributable to the controlling shareholders by Ps. 11.
 
5.
Financial risk management and fair value estimates
 
These Financial Statements do not include all the information and disclosures on financial risk management; therefore, they should be read along with Note 5 to the Annual Financial Statements. There have been no changes in risk management or risk management policies applied by the Group since year-end.
 
Since June 30, 2018 and up to the date of issuance of these Financial Statements, there have been no significant changes in business or economic circumstances affecting the fair value of the Group's assets or liabilities (either measured at fair value or amortized cost). Furthermore, there have been no transfers between the different hierarchies used to assess the fair value of the Group’s financial instruments.

6.
Segment information
 
As explained in Note 6 to the Annual Financial Statements, the Group reports its financial performance separately in two Operations Centers. Since fiscal year 2018 the CODM reviews certain corporate expenses associated with each operation center in an aggregate manner and separately from each of the segments. Such expenses have been disclosed in the "Corporate" segment of each operation center. Additionally, since fiscal year 2018, the CODM also reviews the office business as a single segment and the entertainment business in an aggregate and separate manner from offices, including that concept in the "Others" segment. Also, as described in Note 4.G. to the Annual Financial Statements, the Group lost control of Shufersal as of June 30, 2018 and has reclassified its results to discontinued operations. Segment information for the period ended September 30, 2017 has been recast for the purposes of comparability with the present period.
 
Below is a summary of the Group’s business units and a reconciliation between the operating income according to segment information and the operating income of the statement of income and other comprehensive income of the Group for the periods ended September 30, 2018 and 2017:

For the three-month period ended September 30, 2018, the net gain from the fair value adjustment of investment property amounted to Ps. 16,717, and it was generated by:
1. Shopping Malls Segment
The net result of shopping malls was Ps. 3,694 during the current period, mainly as a result of the update of the macroeconomic inputs with respect to those used as of June 30, 2018, with the effects of each input being detailed below:
a) an increase of 26 basis points in the discount rate, representing a decrease of Ps. 1,164 in the value of shopping Malls;
b) an increase in the projected cash flows generated by the update of the projected inflation rates, representing an increase of Ps. 2,401 in the value of the shopping malls;
c) a net increase of Ps. 1,767, generated by the update of the future exchange rates used for the dollar conversion of the projected cash flows (Ps. 11,027 - loss) and for the conversion of the present value of the projected cash flows at the effective exchange rate for the period end (Ps. 12,794 - gain).
2. “Offices", "Sales and developments" and "Others" segments
The net result of the properties included in the present segments was Ps. 9,494, mainly generated by the depreciation of 43% of the Argentine peso and by the upkeep of the reference values in dollars of the square meters of the market comparable. Additionally, during the current period, a gain of Ps. 3,529 was recognized as a result of the fair value measurement of the Dot Zetta development given the fact that it has reached a development stage in which its fair value is reliably measurable.

Information as of June 30, 2018 according to BCRA's standards. For the purpose of the valuation of the investment in the Company, preliminary figures as of September 30, 2018 with the necessary IFRS adjustments have been considered.
 
Puerto Retiro (joint venture):
 
At present, this 8.3 hectare plot of land, which is located in one of the most privileged areas of the city, near Catalinas, Puerto Madero and Retiro and is the only privately owned waterfront property facing directly to Río de la Plata, is affected by a zoning regulation defined as U.P. which prevents the property from being used for any purposes other than strictly port activities.
 
The Company was involved in a judicial bankruptcy action brought by the National Government, to which this Board of Directors is totally alien. Management and legal counsel of the Company believe that there are sufficient legal and technical arguments to consider that the petition for extension of the bankruptcy case will be dismissed by the court. However, in view of the current status of the action, its result cannot be predicted.

Moreover, Tandanor filed a civil action against Puerto Retiro S.A. and the other defendants in the criminal case for violation of Section 174 (5) based on Section 173 (7) of the Criminal Code of Argentina. Such action seeks -on the basis of the nullity of the decree that approved the bidding process involving the Dársena Norte property- the restitution of the property and a reimbursement in favor of Tandanor for all such amounts it has allegedly lost as a result of a suspected fraudulent transaction involving the sale of the property. Puerto Retiro has presented the allegation on the merit of the evidence, highlighting that the current shareholders of Puerto Retiro did not participate in any of the suspected acts in the criminal case since they acquired the shares for consideration and in good faith several years after the facts told in the process. Likewise, it was emphasized that the company Puerto Retiro is foreign to the bidding / privatization carried out for the sale of Tandanor shares. The dictation of the sentence is expected.
 
On September 7, 2018, the Oral Federal Criminal Court No. 5 rendered a decision. According to the sentence read by the president of the Court, Puerto Retiro won the preliminary objection of limitation filed in the civil action. However, in the criminal case, where Puerto Retiro is not a party, it was ordered, among other issues, the confiscation (“decomiso”) of the property owned by Puerto Retiro known as Planta I. The grounds of the Court`s judgement will be read on November 11, 2018. From that moment, all the parties will be able to file the appeals. Although there are solid arguments to try to refute the disposed seizure, this can be affirmed with a greater degree of certainty after the publications of the fundamentals of the ruling, at this time only the resolute part of this ruling is known.
 
In the criminal action, the claimant reported the violation by Puerto Retiro of the injunction ordered by the criminal court consisting in an order to stay (“prohibición de innovar”) and not to contract with respect to the property disputed in the civil action. As a result of such report, the Oral Federal Court (Tribunal Oral Federal) No. 5 started interlocutory proceedings, and on June 8, 2017, it ordered and carried out the closing of the property that was subject to lease agreements with Los Cipreses S.A. and Flight Express S.A. with the aim of enforcing the referred order. As a result, the proceedings were forwarded to the Criminal Court for it to appoint the court that will investigate the alleged commission of the crime of contempt.
 
Our legal counsel considers that there is a chance of success of the defense of Puerto Retiro, always taking into account that this is a complex issue subject to more than one interpretation by legal scholars and case law.
