Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF THE BUSINESS
Brookfield Property Partners L.P. (“BPY” or the “partnership”) was formed as a limited partnership under the laws of Bermuda, pursuant to a limited partnership agreement dated January 3, 2013, as amended. BPY is a subsidiary of Brookfield Corporation, formerly known as Brookfield Asset Management Inc. (“BN,” the “Corporation,” or the “parent company”) and is the primary entity through which the parent company and its affiliates own, operate, and invest in commercial and other income producing property on a global basis.
The partnership’s sole direct investment is a 36% managing general partnership units (“GP Units” or “GP”) interest in Brookfield Property L.P. (the “operating partnership”). The GP Units provide the partnership with the power to direct the relevant activities of the operating partnership.
The partnership’s 6.5% Preferred Units, Series 1, 6.375% Preferred Units, Series 2, 5.75% Preferred Units, Series 3, and Brookfield Property Preferred L.P.’s (“New LP”) 6.25% Preferred Units, Series 1 are traded on the Nasdaq under the symbols “BPYPP”, “BPYPO”, “BPYPN”, and “BPYPM”, respectively. The New LP 6.25% Preferred Units, Series 1 are also traded on the TSX under the symbol “BPYP.PR.A”.
The registered head office and principal place of business of the partnership is 73 Front Street, 5th Floor, Hamilton HM 12, Bermuda.
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION
a)Statement of compliance
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the partnership and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the IASB, have been omitted or condensed.
These condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 were approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors of the partnership on August 9, 2024.
b)Basis of presentation
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using the same accounting policies and methods as those used in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, except as disclosed below. Consequently, the information included in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the partnership’s annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB. The results reported in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements should not necessarily be regarded as indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year.
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis and have been presented in U.S. Dollars rounded to the nearest million unless otherwise indicated.
c)Adoption of accounting standards
i.Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current, Amendments to IAS 1 (“IAS 1 Amendments”)
The partnership adopted the IAS 1 Amendments as of January 1, 2024, its mandatory effective date. The IAS 1 Amendments affect only the presentation of liabilities as current or non-current in the consolidated balance sheets and not the amount or timing of recognition of any asset, liability, income or expense.
The IAS 1 Amendments clarify that the classification of liabilities as current or non-current is based on rights that are in existence at the end of the reporting period, specify that classification is unaffected by expectations about whether the partnership will exercise its right to defer settlement of a liability, explain that rights are in existence if an entity complies with any covenants with which it is required to comply on or before the end of the reporting period, explain that the requirement to comply with any covenants after the reporting period is not considered in the classification as current or non-current, and introduces a definition of ‘settlement’ to make clear that settlement refers to the transfer to the counterparty of cash, equity instruments, other assets or services.
The partnership has applied the IAS 1 Amendments retrospectively and the December 31, 2023 comparative period has been restated with $13.3 billion of current liabilities being classified as non-current liabilities. This is on the basis of extension options giving the partnership substantive existing rights to defer settlement by twelve months as at December 31, 2023. Prior to the amendments being applied, the extension options had not been included in the assessment of classification as current or non-current as the partnership’s rights to defer settlement of these liabilities are not unconditional.
For the partnership’s equity accounted investments, the IAS 1 Amendments are also applied to the underlying results for the summarized financial information disclosed in Note 4. The December 31, 2023 comparative period has been restated with $3.2 billion of current liabilities being restated as non-current liabilities.
The loan agreements for certain of these non-current liabilities have financial covenants, such as minimum debt yield and maximum loan to value, which must be met periodically, and/or are a condition of extension within twelve months of the reporting period.
d)Future accounting policies
The partnership is currently assessing the impact of IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, which was issued by the IASB in April 2024. IFRS 18 will replace IAS 1 and will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, with earlier application permitted. IFRS 18 sets out significant new requirements for the presentation of financial statements with a particular focus on the income statement, including requirements for mandatory sub-totals to be presented, aggregation and disaggregation of information, and disclosures related to management-defined performance measures.
The partnership is also currently assessing the impact of Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments – Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7, issued by the IASB in May 2024. The Amendments will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2026. The Amendments clarify the requirements related to the date of recognition and derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities, with an exception for derecognition of financial liabilities settled via an electronic transfer, clarify the requirements for assessing contractual cash flow characteristics of financial assets and clarify the characteristics of non-recourse loans and contractually linked instruments.
e)Critical judgments and estimates in applying accounting policies
The preparation of the partnership’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with IAS 34 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates and assumptions. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the partnership’s accounting policies. The accounting policies and critical estimates and assumptions have been set out in Note 2, Summary of Material Accounting Policies in the partnership’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

(3)Includes right-of-use assets related to commercial properties and commercial developments of $1,197 million and $132 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2024 (December 31, 2023 - $1,116 million and $130 million). Current lease liabilities of $37 million (December 31, 2023 - $37 million) have been included in accounts payable and other liabilities and non-current lease liabilities of $1,059 million (December 31, 2023 - $995 million) have been included in other non-current liabilities.
The partnership determines the fair value of each commercial property based upon, among other things, rental income from current leases and assumptions about rental income from future leases reflecting market conditions at the applicable balance sheet dates, less future cash outflows in respect of such leases. Investment property valuations are generally completed by undertaking one of two accepted income approach methods, which include either: i) discounting the expected future cash flows, generally over a term of 10 years including a terminal value based on the application of a capitalization rate to estimated year 11 cash flows; or ii) undertaking a direct capitalization approach whereby a capitalization rate is applied to estimated stabilized annual net operating income. Where there has been a recent market transaction for a specific property, such as an acquisition or sale of a partial interest, the partnership values the property on that basis. In determining the appropriateness of the methodology applied, the partnership considers the relative uncertainty of the timing and amount of expected cash flows and the impact such uncertainty would have in arriving at a reliable estimate of fair value. The partnership prepares these valuations considering asset and market specific factors, as well as observable transactions for similar assets. The determination of fair value requires the use of estimates, which are internally determined and compared with market data, third-party reports and research as well as observable conditions. Except for the impact of interest rates and inflation, there are currently no known trends, events or uncertainties that the partnership reasonably believes could have a sufficiently pervasive impact across the partnership’s businesses to materially affect the methodologies or assumptions utilized to determine the estimated fair values reflected in these financial statements. Discount rates and capitalization rates are inherently uncertain and may be impacted by, among other things, movements in interest rates in the geographies and markets in which the assets are located. Changes in estimates of discount and capitalization rates across different geographies and markets are often independent of each other and not necessarily in the same
direction or of the same magnitude. Further, impacts to the partnership’s fair values of commercial properties from changes in discount or capitalization rates and cash flows are usually inversely correlated. Decreases (increases) in the discount rate or capitalization rate result in increases (decreases) of fair value. Such decreases (increases) may be mitigated by decreases (increases) in cash flows included in the valuation analysis, as circumstances that typically give rise to increased interest rates (e.g., strong economic growth, inflation) usually give rise to increased cash flows at the asset level. Refer to the table below for further information on valuation methods used by the partnership for its asset classes.
Commercial developments are also measured using a discounted cash flow model, net of costs to complete, as of the balance sheet date. Development sites in the planning phases are measured using comparable market values for similar assets.
In accordance with its policy, the partnership generally measures and records its commercial properties and developments using valuations prepared by management. However, for certain subsidiaries, the partnership relies on quarterly valuations prepared by external valuation professionals. Management compares the external valuations to the partnership’s internal valuations to review the work performed by the external valuation professionals. Additionally, a number of properties are externally appraised each year and the results of those appraisals are compared to the partnership’s internally prepared values.

NOTE 13. INCOME TAXES
The partnership is a flow-through entity for tax purposes. However, income taxes are recognized for the amount of taxes payable by the primary holding subsidiaries of the partnership (“Holding Entities”), any direct or indirect corporate subsidiaries of the Holding Entities and for the impact of deferred tax assets and liabilities related to such entities.
The partnership operates in countries which have enacted new legislation to implement the global minimum top-up tax. The partnership has applied a temporary mandatory relief from recognizing and disclosing information related to deferred top-up tax and will account for it as a current tax when it is incurred. There is no material current tax impact for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. The global minimum top-up tax is not anticipated to have a significant impact on the financial position of the partnership.
The components of income tax expense include the following: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three months ended Jun. 30, | Six months ended Jun. 30, |
(US$ Millions) | 2024 | 2023 | 2024 | 2023 |

Income tax expense (benefit) | $ | 47 | | $ | (81) | | $ | 129 | | $ | (140) | |
The increase in income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the prior year is primarily due to tax expense uncorrelated with accounting income, a change in tax rate in certain subsidiaries and a decrease in the benefit recognized for deferred tax assets.

As such, income attributed to each unit or share of non-controlling interest is equivalent to that allocated to an LP Unit. The proportion of interests held by holders of the REUs changes as a result of issuances, repurchases and exchanges. Consequently, the partnership adjusted the relative carrying amounts of the interests held by limited partners and non-controlling interests based on their relative share of the equivalent LP Units. The difference between the adjusted value and the previous carrying amounts was attributed to current LP Units as ownership changes in the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Equity.

NOTE 26. OBLIGATIONS, GUARANTEES, CONTINGENCIES AND OTHER
In the normal course of operations, the partnership and its consolidated entities execute agreements that provide for indemnification and guarantees to third parties in transactions such as dispositions, acquisitions, sales of assets and sales of services.
Certain of the partnership’s operating subsidiaries have also agreed to indemnify their directors and certain of their officers and employees. The nature of substantially all of the indemnification undertakings prevent the partnership from making a reasonable estimate of the maximum potential amount that it could be required to pay third parties as the agreements do not specify a maximum amount and the amounts are dependent upon the outcome of future contingent events, the nature and likelihood of which cannot be determined at this time. Historically, neither the partnership nor its consolidated subsidiaries have made significant payments under such indemnification agreements.
The partnership and its operating subsidiaries may be contingently liable with respect to litigation and claims that arise from time to time in the normal course of business or otherwise.

The partnership maintains insurance on its properties in amounts and with deductibles that it believes are in line with what owners of similar properties carry. The partnership maintains all risk property insurance and rental value coverage (including coverage for the perils of flood, earthquake and named windstorm). The partnership does not conduct its operations, other than those of equity accounted investments, through entities that are not fully or proportionately consolidated in these financial statements, and has not guaranteed or otherwise contractually committed to support any material financial obligations not reflected in these financial statements.
NOTE 27. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

•foreign currency forward contracts to hedge exposures to Canadian Dollar, Australian Dollar, British Pound, Euro, Chinese Yuan, Brazilian Real, Indian Rupee and South Korean Won denominated net investments in foreign subsidiaries and foreign currency denominated financial assets;
•interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk associated with planned refinancings and existing variable rate debt;
•interest rate caps to hedge interest rate risk on certain variable rate debt; and
•cross-currency swaps to manage interest rate and foreign currency exchange rates on existing variable rate debt.
There have been no material changes to the partnership’s financial risk exposure or risk management activities since December 31, 2023.

Fair Value Hierarchy
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e., an exit price). Fair value measurement establishes a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Quoted market prices (unadjusted) in active markets represent a Level 1 valuation. When quoted market prices in active markets are not available, the partnership maximizes the use of observable inputs within valuation models. When all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly, the valuation is classified as Level 2. Valuations that require the significant use of unobservable inputs are considered Level 3, which reflect the partnership’s market assumptions and are noted below. This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available.
The following table outlines financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the consolidated financial statements and the level of the inputs used to determine those fair values in the context of the hierarchy as defined above:

NOTE 28. RELATED PARTIES
In the normal course of operations, the partnership enters into transactions with related parties. These transactions have been measured at exchange value and are recognized in the consolidated financial statements. The immediate parent of the partnership is Brookfield Property Partners Limited. The ultimate parent of the partnership is Brookfield Corporation. Other related parties of the partnership include the Corporation’s subsidiaries and operating entities, certain joint ventures and associates accounted for under the equity method, as well as officers of such entities and their spouses.
The partnership has a management agreement with its service providers, wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Corporation. Pursuant to a Master Services Agreement, the partnership pays a base management fee (“base management fee”), to the service providers. The management fee is calculated at an annualized rate of 1.05% of the sum of the following amounts, as of the last day of the immediately preceding quarter: (i) the equity attributable to unitholders for our Office, Retail and the Corporate segments; and (ii) the carrying value non-voting common equity of a BPY subsidiary (“Canholdco Class B Common Shares”) and any fees payable by us in connection with our commitment to private real estate funds of any service providers but for the election by us for such fees to be added to the management fee (but excluding any accrued fees that have not become due and payable). For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the partnership paid a base management fee of $44 million and $89 million (2023 - $50 million and $99 million), respectively.
In connection with the issuance of preferred equity units of the operating partnership to a third party in the fourth quarter of 2014, the Corporation contingently agreed to acquire the seven-year and ten-year tranches of preferred equity units from the holder for the initial issuance price plus accrued and unpaid distributions and to exchange such units for preferred equity units with terms and conditions substantially similar to the twelve-year tranche to the extent that the market price of the LP Units is less than 80% of the exchange price at maturity. On December 30, 2021, the Corporation acquired the seven-year tranche of preferred equity units from the holder and exchanged such units for REUs. The seven-year tranche of preferred equity units were subsequently canceled.

(4)BNRE, which is accounted for under the equity method by the Corporation, has an additional commitment in BSREP IV.
As of June 30, 2024, balances outstanding with related parties include a net payable balance with BN of $871 million.
On January 1, 2023, the partnership acquired a 23% LP interest in the foreign investments owned by BSREP IV from an indirect subsidiary of the Corporation (“Acquisition of Foreign Investments”) for consideration of $588 million through the issuance of a non-interest bearing note. In February 2023, there was a $530 million capital call in respect to BSREP IV U.S. and foreign investments. The partnership repaid the non-interest bearing note and funded the capital call through the issuance of LP Units, Special LP Units and REUs to the Corporation. The Corporation retained an identical indirect economic interest in the BSREP IV investment before and after the transaction.
In May 2023, there was a $507 million capital call in respect to BSREP IV investments. The partnership funded the capital call through the issuance of LP Units, Special LP Units and REUs to the Corporation.
In June 2023, the partnership sold partial interests in six Office assets to BNRE, including partial interest in three assets in the U.S. for net proceeds of approximately $306 million and three assets in Canada for net proceeds of approximately C$405 million ($306 million).
In August 2023, in a series of related transactions the partnership issued $1.6 billion of mandatory convertible non-voting preferred shares which are now held by a wholly-owned subsidiary of BNRE. Upon conversion, it is expected that BNRE will assume a partial interest in the partnership’s LP interest in BSREP IV. The partnership will continue to consolidate its LP interest in BSREP IV until conversion, as its contractual rights and exposure to variable returns to BSREP IV and its underlying investments remains unchanged. The partnership received $1.6 billion in notes receivable as consideration in these transactions. There were two capital calls in September and December 2023 of $263 million and $101 million, respectively, in respect to BSREP IV investments, which were funded by the partial paydown of the note receivable.
In June 2024, the partnership sold partial interests in ten Office and Retail assets in the U.S. and Canada to BNRE, for net proceeds of approximately $1.3 billion. The partnership used the proceeds from these dispositions toward repayments of corporate and asset-level debt.
NOTE 29. SEGMENT INFORMATION
a)Operating segments
IFRS 8, Operating Segments, requires operating segments to be determined based on internal reports that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) for the purpose of allocating resources to the segment and to assessing its performance. The partnership’s operating segments are organized into four reportable segments: i) Office, ii) Retail, iii) LP Investments and iv) Corporate. This is consistent with how the partnership presents financial information to the CODM. These segments are independently and regularly reviewed and managed by the Chief Executive Officer, who is considered the CODM.
b)Basis of measurement
The CODM measures and evaluates the performance of the partnership’s operating segments based on funds from operations (“FFO”).
The partnership defines FFO as net income, prior to fair value gains, net, depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, and income taxes less non-controlling interests of others in operating subsidiaries and properties share of these items. When determining FFO, the partnership also includes its proportionate share of the FFO of unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures and associates.
c)Reportable segment measures
