But the group’s net asset value per share fell partly because of impairments against its assets in the rest of Africa

Attacq, the real estate investment trust behind the development of Waterfall City, said on Tuesday its distributable earnings per share grew by 9.5% to 45c in the six months ended December.

However, the Reit’s net asset value per share decreased by 2.4% to R23.66 mainly due to the full-year dividend payout of R520m in October 2018 and impairments against the group’s rest-of-Africa retail assets. Attacq’s exposure to the rest of Africa is via a 25% shareholding in Gruppo, the owner of Nigeria’s Ikeja City Mall, and a 31.8% stake in AttAfrica, which is invested in four retail properties in Ghana and one in Zambia.
