Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2012
1.     Basis of preparation
The financial information set out above does not constitute the Company's statutory accounts for the years ended 31 March 2012 or 2011, but is derived from those accounts.  Statutory accounts for 2011 have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies and those for 2012 will be delivered following the Company's annual general meeting.  The auditor has reported on those accounts; their reports were unqualified, did not draw attention to any matters by way of emphasis and did not contain statements under s498(2) or (3) of Companies Act 2006 or equivalent preceding legislation.
The financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2012 have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for the revaluation of properties, investments and derivatives. The financial statements have also been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the European Union and therefore comply with Article 4 of the EU IAS Regulation.
While the financial information included in this preliminary announcement has been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement criteria of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs), this announcement does not itself contain sufficient information to comply with IFRSs. The Company expects to publish full financial statements that comply with IFRSs in June 2012.
The accounting policies used are consistent with those contained in the Group's last annual report and accounts for the year ended 31 March 2011, with the exception of the following which have had no effect on the financial statements: IAS 24 (revised 2009) - Related Party Disclosures; Amendment to IFRS 2 - Share Based Payments; Amendment to IFRS 7 - Financial Instruments Disclosures. Standards and interpretations not effective for the current accounting period were: IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments; IFRS 10 -  Consolidated Financial Statements; IFRS 11 - Joint Arrangements; IFRS 12 - Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities; IFRS 13 - Fair Value Measurement. IAS 1 (amended) - Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income; IAS 12 (amended) - Deferred Tax: recovery of assets; IAS 19 (revised) - Employee Benefits; IAS 27 (revised) - underlying Separate Financial Statements; IAS 28 (revised) - Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures.
The Directors do not expect that the adoption of the standards listed above will have a material impact on the financial statements of the Group in future periods except as follows: IFRS 9 will impact both the measurement and disclosures of financial instruments; IFRS 12 will impact the disclosure of interests the Group has in other entities; IFRS 13 will impact the disclosure of fair value measurements; IAS 19 (revised) will impact the measurement of the various components representing movements in the defined benefit pension obligation.
The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis as stated in the directors' responsibility statement.

Corporation tax payable at 31 March 2012 was £32m (2011: £30m) as shown in note 12.  Deferred tax is calculated on temporary differences under the liability method using a tax rate of 24% (2011: 26%).  The movement on deferred tax is as shown below:

Under the REIT regime development properties which are sold within three years of completion do not benefit from tax exemption.  At 31 March 2012 the value of such properties is £763m (2011: £695m) and if these properties were to be sold and tax exemption was not available the tax arising would be £30m (2011: £21m).
The deferred tax charge for the year ended 31 March 2012 includes a credit of £3m to reflect reduced deferred tax liabilities arising from the forthcoming reduction in the UK corporation tax rate to 24% (effective from 1 April 2012)

Total Group property portfolio valuation at 31 March 2012					5,414
The Group valuation of properties of £5,414m (2011: £4,783m) comprises freeholds of £4,034m (2011: £3,724m); virtual freeholds of £107m (2011: £162m); long leaseholds of £1,273m (2011: £897m) and short leaseholds of £nil (2011: £nil).  The historical cost of properties was £4,264m (2011: £3,816m).
At 31 March 2012 £47m of investment properties were reclassified to trading properties as it was determined that the Group's intention was to redevelop and sell these properties.
The Group's property portfolio was valued by external valuers on the basis of Fair Value, in accordance with the RICS Valuation - Professional Standards 2012, eighth edition, published by The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors.  Knight Frank LLP valued properties to an aggregate value of £5,133m (2011: £4,729m); other valuers £281m (2011: £54m). Valuers of joint venture and fund properties are detailed in note 9.
Properties valued at £1,827m (2011: £2,850m) were subject to a security interest and other properties of non-recourse companies amounted to £49m (2011: £nil).
Included within the property valuation is £86m (2011: £76m) in respect of accrued contracted rental uplift income, against which the Group holds a provision of £5m (2011: £5m). The balance arises through the IFRS treatment of leases containing such arrangements, which requires the recognition of rental income on a straight line basis over the lease term, with the difference between this and the cash receipt changing the carrying value of the property against which revaluations are measured.
Cumulative interest capitalised against investment properties amounts to £78m (2011: £73m).
Included in investment properties are £444m of properties which are in the course of development (2011: £149m).

PREF, a fund owning a portfolio of retail property in Europe (in which British Land has a net investment of £96m), had a  €173m syndicated bank loan of which €61m was refinanced in December 2011 with a new term loan in respect of assets in Spain. The remaining balance was repaid in full from a €100m loan provided by the unit holders and the utilisation of existing cash resources.  A market uncertainty clause is included in the valuation report of the Portuguese properties within PREF, due to a lack of transactional evidence and uncertainty over the economic situation in that market.
At 31 March 2012 the investment in joint ventures included within the total investment in joint ventures and funds was £1,690m (2011: £1,573m).
Distributions in the year include the receipt of £14m from HUT, £1m from PREF, £1m from HIF, £19m from Public House, £9m from Tesco joint ventures, £7m from Sainsbury joint ventures, £17m from Meadowhall and £5m from Broadgate.
At 31 March 2012 the valuation of the Group's share of joint ventures and funds properties is £4,923m (2011: £4,789m); external net debt is £2,576m (2011: £2,697m) and the mark to market adjustment for external debt is £5m liability (2011: £104m asset).
The Joint Venture and Funds portfolios were valued by external valuers on the basis of Fair Value in accordance with the RICS Valuation - Professional Standards 2012, eighth edition, published by The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors. CB Richard Ellis Ltd valued properties to an aggregate value of £2,346m (2011: £2,357m), Knight Frank LLP an aggregate value of £2,577m (2011: £2,432m).

Trade and other debtors are shown after deducting a provision for bad and doubtful debts of £10m (2011: £7m).  The charge to the income statement was £1m (2011: £nil).
The Directors consider that the carrying amount of trade and other debtors approximates their fair value.  There is no concentration of credit risk with respect to trade debtors as the Group has a large number of customers, who are paying their rent in advance.

14.     Net debt (continued)
The two financial covenants applicable to the Group unsecured debt are:
Net Borrowings not to exceed 175% of Adjusted Capital and Reserves.
At 31 March 2012 the ratio is 44%
i. Net Borrowings are £2,470m, being the principal amount of gross debt of £2,562m plus amounts owed to joint ventures of £15m plus TPP Investments Ltd of £30m (see note 16), less the cash and short-term deposits of £137m; and
ii. Adjusted Capital and Reserves are £5,662m, being share capital and reserves of £5,104m (see Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity), adjusted for £31m of deferred tax (see note 2), £338m exceptional refinancing charges (see below) and £189m mark to market on interest rate swaps (see note 2).
Net Unsecured Borrowings not to exceed 70% of Unencumbered Assets.
At 31 March 2012 the ratio is 34%
i. Net Unsecured Borrowings are £1,463m, being the principal amount of gross debt of £2,562m plus amounts owed to joint ventures of £15m less cash and deposits not subject to a security interest of £132m less the principal amount of secured and non-recourse borrowings of £982m; and
ii. Unencumbered Assets are £4,267m being properties of £5,414m (see note 8) plus investments in joint ventures and funds of £2,191m (see note 9) and other investments of £228m (see balance sheet: liquid investments of £200m and other investments of £28m) less investments in joint ventures of £1,690m (see note 9) and encumbered assets of £1,876m (see note 8).
In calculating Adjusted Capital and Reserves for the purpose of the unsecured debt financial covenants, there is an adjustment of £338m to reflect the cumulative net amortised exceptional items relating to the refinancings in the years ended 31 March 2005, 2006 and 2007.

The bank debt and loan notes have been valued assuming they could be renegotiated at contracted margins. The derivatives have been valued by calculating the present value of expected future cash flows, using appropriate market discount rates, by an independent treasury advisor.
15.     Dividend
The fourth quarter dividend of 6.6 pence per share, totalling £59m (2011: 6.5 pence per share, totalling £58m) was approved by the Board on 20 May 2012 and is payable on 10 August 2012 to shareholders on the register at the close of business on 6 July 2012.
The Board will announce the availability of the Scrip Dividend Alternative via the Regulatory News Service and on its website (www.britishland.com), no later than 48 hours before the ex-dividend date of 4 July 2012.  The Board expects to announce the split between PID and non-PID income at that time. Any Scrip Dividend Alternative will not be enhanced.  PID dividends are paid, as required by REIT legislation, after deduction of withholding tax at the basic rate (currently 20%), where appropriate.  Certain classes of shareholders may be able to elect to receive dividends gross.  Please refer to our website (www.britishland.com) for details.
