Independent review report to Kennedy Wilson Europe Real Estate Limited (the ‘Company’)
Introduction
We have been engaged by the Company to review the condensed consolidated financial statements (the “interim financial statements”) in the half-year financial report for the six months ended 30 June 2019, which comprise the condensed consolidated income statement, the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the condensed consolidated balance sheet, the condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity, the condensed consolidated cash flow statement, and the related explanatory notes. Our review was conducted in accordance with the Financial Reporting Council’s (“FRC’s”) International Standard on Review Engagements (“ISRE”) (UK and Ireland) 2410, ‘Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity’.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim financial statements in the half-year report for the six months ended 30 June 2019 are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, ‘Interim Financial Reporting’, as adopted by the European Union (the “EU”).
Directors’ responsibilities
The half-yearly financial report is the responsibility of, and has been approved by, the directors.
As disclosed in Note 2, the interim financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as adopted by the EU. The condensed set of consolidated financial statements included in this half-yearly report has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, ‘Interim Financial Reporting’, as adopted by the EU.
Our responsibility
Our responsibility is to express to the Company a conclusion on the condensed set of consolidated financial statements in the half-yearly financial report based on our review.
Scope of review
We conducted our review having regard to the Financial Reporting Council’s International Standard on Review Engagements (UK and Ireland) 2410 Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review of interim financial information consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland) and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
We read the other information contained in the half-yearly financial report to identify material inconsistencies with the information in the condensed set of consolidated financial statements and to identify any information that is apparently materially incorrect based on, or materially inconsistent with, the knowledge acquired by us in the course of performing the review. If we become aware of any apparent material misstatements or inconsistencies we consider the implications for our report.

The purpose of our review work and to whom we owe our responsibilities
This report is made solely to the Company in accordance with the terms of our engagement. Our review has been undertaken so that we might state to the Company those matters we are required to state to it in this report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Company for our review work, for this report, or for the conclusions we have reached.

Notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements
For the six month period ended 30 June 2019
1. General information
Kennedy Wilson Europe Real Estate Limited (the ‘Company’) is a company incorporated in Jersey. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements (the ‘interim financial statements’) as at and for the six month period ended 30 June 2019 have been prepared and are presented in respect of the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the ‘Group’).
The registered office of the Company is 47 Esplanade, St Helier, Jersey, JE1 0BD, Channel Islands.
2. Basis of preparation
A. Statement of compliance
These interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as promulgated by the International Accounting Standards Board, as adopted by the European Union, and should be read in conjunction with the Group’s last annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2018. They do not include all the information required for a complete set of IFRS financial statements. However, selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in the Group’s financial position and performance since the last annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2018 (the ‘Audited Financial Statements’).
The results are unaudited but were reviewed by the auditors of the Company.
B. Basis of measurement
The interim financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, applying the historical cost convention except for investment and development property, loans secured by real estate, property, plant and equipment, investments in equity-accounted investees and derivative financial instruments which are stated at their fair value using the accounting policies on the basis set out in Note 3 Significant accounting policies.
C. Use of judgements and estimates
In preparing these interim financial statements, management has made judgements and estimates that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
The significant judgements made by management in applying the Group’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those described in the Annual Financial Statements, except for the new significant judgements related to lessee accounting under IFRS 16, which are described in Note 17.
(i). Impact of the UK giving notice to withdraw from the European Union (the ‘EU’)
On 29 March 2017, the UK government invoked Article 50 of the Treaty of Lisbon, notifying the European Council of its intention to withdraw from the European Union (‘Brexit’). There was an initial two-year timeframe for the UK and the EU to reach an agreement on the withdrawal and the future UK and EU relationship. This timeframe was extended to 31 October 2019. At this stage, there is significant uncertainty about the withdrawal process, its timeframe and the outcome of the negotiations about the future arrangements between the UK and the EU.
Management applied judgement in determining the impact of this uncertainty on carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in these interim financial statements. As a result of the assessment, the Group has not identified any impairment triggers at its UK subsidiaries, or at its investment properties located in the UK, as of 30 June 2019.
3. Significant accounting policies
A. Accounting policies adopted for the year ended 31 December 2018
Except as described below, the accounting policies and methods of computation and presentation adopted in the preparation of the interim financial statements are consistent with those applied in the Audited Financial Statements and are described therein on pages 15 to 21.
The Audited Financial Statements are available at eu.kennedywilson.com.
As at 30 June 2019, management prepare an internal analysis of the fair values of Investment and development property, Property Plant and Equipment and Investments in Equity-accounted investees. This analysis includes consideration of the independently obtained year-end valuations, changes in discount rates in the period, capitalised costs incurred and any changes to future expected cash flows.
The Group has not early adopted any other standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.
B. New accounting standards or amendments effective 1 January 2019
There are a number of new standards or amendments which are effective for the Group for the first time for the financial year beginning 1 January 2019.
There is no material impact from the adoption of these new standards and amendments, save for the impact of implementing IFRS 16 Leases. Further information is set out in Note 17.
The changes in accounting policies are also expected to be reflected in the Group’s consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2019.

| |
2. | Not European Union endorsed at the time of approval of the interim financial statements. |
The Group applies, for the first time, IFRS 16 Leases. Comparatives have not been restated for the 2018 reporting period, as permitted using the modified retrospective approach under which the cumulative effect is recognised in retained earnings at 1 January 2019. Accordingly, the comparative information presented for 2018 has not been restated i.e. it is presented as previously reported under IAS 17 and related interpretations. Further details are set out in Note 17.
Several other amendments and interpretations apply for the first time in 2019, but do not have an impact on the interim financial statements of the Group.
5. Operating segments
A. Basis of segmentation
The Group is organised into three business segments, against which the Group reports its segmental information, being investment properties, loans secured by real estate and hotels. These segments are reported separately because they offer different products or services and are managed separately because they require different strategies.
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision makers which is updated as required by the business, who has been identified as the board of directors of the Company (the ‘Board’).
The following summary describes the operations of each reportable segment:
|
| |
Segment | Description |
Investment property | Property used primarily for the purpose of generating rental income and comprising office, retail, leisure, industrial and residential real estate assets. |
Loans secured by real estate | A loan that is in default or close to being in default, receivership or liquidation, where the borrower is typically not making full payments and the loan to value (‘LTV’) is greater than 100%. |
Hotels | Ownership of hotels, namely Fairmont St Andrews Hotel (United Kingdom), the Shelbourne Hotel (Ireland), and the ownership and management of the Portmarnock Hotel and Golf Links (Ireland). |
There are varying levels of integration between the investment property and hotel segments. This integration consists primarily of shared asset management resources.
Corporate income and expenses are items incurred centrally which are neither directly attributable nor reasonably allocable to individual segments.
The Group’s key measure of underlying performance of investment property is net operating income as this measure illustrates and emphasises those segments’ contribution to the reported profits of the Group and the input of those segments to earnings per share. By focusing the prime performance measurement on net operating income, other statistical data such as valuation movements are separately highlighted for analysis and attention.
The Group’s key measure of underlying performance of the loans secured by real estate segment is fair value gain as this measure illustrates and emphasises that segment’s contribution to the reported profits of the Group.
The Group’s key performance measure of underlying performance of the hotel sector is net operating income as this measure illustrates and emphasises that segment’s contribution to the reported profits of the Group.

B. Measurement of fair values
The fair value of rent and other receivables, cash and cash equivalents, and trade and other payables approximate their carrying value and they are carried at amortised cost.
C. Financial risk management
The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including interest rate risk and foreign currency risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.
The interim financial statements do not include all financial risk management information and disclosures required in the Audited Financial Statements.
Further information on financial risk management is set out in Note 22 to the Audited Financial Statements. There have been no changes in any risk management policies since 31 December 2018.
(i). Market risk
(a). Foreign currency risk
The Group has operations in Europe which transact business denominated mostly in Euro. There is currency exposure caused by translating the local trading performance and local net assets into Pound Sterling for each financial period and at each reporting date.
The Group’s net investment translation exposure (including the impact of derivative financial instruments) is summarised below:

Gross foreign currency liabilities | | | (1,170.4) | (1,058.4) |
| | | 353.0 | 37.4 |
Gross currency liabilities include the nominal amount of £172.5 million (December 2018: £172.5 million) of foreign exchange derivatives designated as net investment hedges.
The sensitivity below has been determined based on the exposure to foreign exchange rates for derivative financial instruments at the balance sheet date and represents management’s assessment of possible changes to the fair value of the Group’s cross currency swaps as a result of possible changes in foreign exchange rates:

(iii). Capital management
The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as a going concern and as such it aims to maintain a prudent mix between borrowings and equity financing. The Group’s capital structure comprises equity attributable to shareholders of the Company, borrowings (Note 11) and cash and cash equivalents. Equity comprises issued share capital, reserves and retained earnings as disclosed in the condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity. Borrowings comprise term loan facilities, a revolving credit facility and unsecured bonds.
Save for the bonds, the remaining Group borrowings are secured on specific portfolios and are non–recourse to the Group as a whole.
The Group is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.
The Board monitors the return on capital as well as the level of dividends to ordinary shareholders. Dividends are approved by the Board on an interim basis.

15. Related party transactions
A. Parent and ultimate controlling party
The Company’s parent and ultimate controlling party is Kennedy-Wilson Holdings, Inc. (‘KWI’). At 30 June 2019 and 31 December 2018, the Company was a wholly owned subsidiary of KWI.
B. Transactions with key management personnel
(i). Amounts paid to key management personnel
(a). Investment management fee
The Investment Manager is considered to be included within the definition of key management personnel. The total Investment Management fee for the six month period ended 30 June 2019 is £5.6 million (six month period ended 30 June 2018: £5.7 million).
(b). Directors fees
Directors are not entitled to any fee for acting as directors of the Company.
(c). Performance fees
The Investment Manager is considered to be included within the definition of key management personnel. The total performance fee accrued for the six month period ended 30 June 2019 is £Nil (six month period ended 30 June 2018: £Nil).
C. Other related parties
Included in the Trade and other receivables balance sheet caption is an amount of £18.6 million receivable from group companies. At 31 December 2018 an amount payable to the parent company of £0.9 million was included in the Trade and other payables balance sheet caption.
16. Assets held-for-sale
The Group has identified certain of its investment properties as held-for-sale in accordance with IFRS 5. The carrying value of such assets was £136.0 million at the balance sheet date (31 December 2018: £40.1 million). In addition, of the balance at 31 December 2018, £25.2 million of those assets were subsequently taken off market and were therefore removed from this classification. During the year £14.9 million of assets which were classified as held-for-sale at 31 December 2018 were sold. At 30 June 2019 a further £136.0 million (31 December 2018: £38.7 million) of assets were added to this classification (being £53.8 million of investment and development properties and £82.2 million of property, plant and equipment).
17. Changes to the Group’s accounting policies
A. IFRS 16 Leases
(i). The Group’s leasing activities and how these were accounted for
The Group leases various offices and properties on long leaseholds.
Rental contracts on offices are typically made for fixed periods of up to 10 years, but may have extension options as described below. Lease terms are negotiated on an individual basis and contain a wide range of different terms and conditions. The lease agreements do not impose any covenants.
Long leaseholds cover various periods up to and including 999 years. Lease terms are negotiated on an individual basis and contain a wide range of different terms and conditions.
Until the 2018 financial year, property leases were classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases were charged to the profit or loss on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.
(ii). Practical expedients applied
On transition to IFRS 16, the Group has used the following practical expedients permitted by the standard:
| |
• | The accounting for operating leases with a remaining lease term of less than 12 months as at 1 January 2019 as short-term leases; and |
| |
• | The exclusion of initial direct costs for the measurement of right-of-use assets at the date of initial application. |
The Group has also elected not to reassess whether a contract is or contains a lease at the date of initial application. Instead, for contracts entered into before the transition date the Group relied on its assessment made applying IAS 17 and IFRIC 4 Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease.
(iii). Summary of new accounting policies
(a). Right-of-use assets
The Group recognises right-of-use assets at the commencement date of the lease (ie the date the underlying asset is available for use). Right-of-use assets are measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, and adjusted for any remeasurement or lease liabilities. The cost of right-of-use assets includes the amount of lease liabilities recognised, initial direct costs incurred, and lease payments made at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received. Unless the Group is reasonably certain to obtain ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, the recognised right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight line basis over the shorter of its estimated useful life and the lease term.
(b). Lease liabilities
At the commencement date of the lease, the Group recognises lease liabilities measured at the present value of lease payments to be made over the lease term. The lease payments include fixed payments (including in-substance fixed payments) less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a rate, and amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees. The lease payments also include the exercise price of a purchase option reasonably certain to be exercised by the Group and payments of penalties for terminating a lease, if the lease term reflects the Group exercising the option to terminate. The variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognised as an expense in the period in which the event or condition that triggers the payment occurs.
In calculating the present value of the lease payments, the Group uses the incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date if the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. After the commencement date, the amount of lease liabilities is increased to reflect the accretion of interest and reduced for the lease payments made. In addition, the carrying amount of lease liabilities is remeasured if there is a modification, a change in the lease term, a change in the in-substance fixed lease payments or a change in the assessment to purchase the underlying asset.
(iv). Adjustments recognised on adoption of IFRS 16
On adoption of IFRS 16, the Group recognises lease liabilities in relation to leases which had previously been classified as operating leases under the principles of IAS 17 Leases. These liabilities were measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate, applied to the lease liabilities on 1 January 2019.
The associated right-of-use assets for property leases were measured on a retrospective basis as if the new rules had always been applied. There were no onerous lease contracts that would have required an adjustment to the right-of-use assets at the date of initial application.
The change in accounting polices affected the following items in the balance sheet on 1 January 2019:
Right-of-use asset increase £6.4 million
Lease liabilities increase £6.4 million
The net impact on retained earnings on 1 January 2019 was £Nil.
(c). Short-term leases
The Group applies the short-term lease recognition exemption to its short-term leases (i.e. those leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less from the commencement date and do not contain a purchase option). Lease payments on short-term leases are recognised as an expense on a straight line basis over the lease term.
(d). Significant judgment in determining the lease term of contracts with renewal options
The Group determines the lease terms as the non-cancellable terms of the lease, together with any periods covered by an option to extend the lease if it is reasonably certain to be exercised, or any periods covered by an option to terminate the lease, if it is reasonably certain not to be exercised.
The Group has an option under some of its leases to lease the assets for additional terms. The Group applies judgment in evaluating whether it is reasonably certain to exercise the option to renew. That is, it considers all relevant factors that create an economic incentive for it to exercise the renewal. After the commencement date, the Group reassesses the lease term if there is a significant event or change in circumstances that is within its control and affects its ability to exercise (or not to exercise) the option to renew.
18. Approval of the interim financial statements
These interim financial statements were authorised for issue by the Company’s Board of Directors on 28 August 2019.
