for the six month period ended 2017 1 Corporate information Depa Limited (the Company ) is a company limited by shares and registered in accordance with Companies Law DIFC Law No. 2 of 2009, as amended, and was incorporated on 25 February 2008.

The Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the Group ) specialises in the luxury fit-out sector, focusing primarily on hospitality, commercial and residential property developments, and also includes the airport, retail, yacht, theming and specialist fit-out sectors. Additionally, the Group is a provider of manufactured products and procurement services, with a primary focus on customised furniture, fixtures and equipment, much of which is produced in its in-house facilities. The Company's shares are listed on the Nasdaq Dubai. The address of the Company s registered office is P.O. Box 56338, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. 2 Basis of preparation The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. Statement of compliance and accounting convention These condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the six month period ended 2017 have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 'IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost basis, except for certain investment properties and available for sale investments, which have been measured at fair value. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Group s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2016 and any public announcements made by the Group during the interim reporting period. In addition, results for the period from 1 January 2017 to 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the financial year ending 31 December 2017. 6
2 Basis of preparation (continued) Financial risk management The condensed consolidated interim financial information does not include all financial risk management information and disclosures required in the annual consolidated financial statements; therefore, it should be read in conjunction with the Group s annual consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2016. The Group s financial risk management objectives and policies are consistent with those disclosed in the annual consolidated financial statements at and for the year ended 31 December 2016. There have been no changes in the risk management department or in any risk management policies since the year end. Liquidity risk factors Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the board of directors, which has an appropriate liquidity risk management framework for the management of the Group s short, medium and long-term funding and liquidity management requirements. The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking facilities and reserve borrowing facilities, by monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and financial liabilities. Fair values of financial instruments Financial instruments comprise financial assets and financial liabilities. Financial assets consist of cash and bank balances, accounts receivable and other assets (excluding prepayments and advances to subcontractors and suppliers), amount due from customers on construction contracts and due from related parties. Financial liabilities consist of bank borrowings, accounts payable and accruals, subcontractors retention and due to related parties. At the period ended, the fair values of financial instruments are not materially different from their carrying values. The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities are considered at the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values: Cash and bank balances, accounts receivable and other assets (excluding prepayments and advances to subcontractors and suppliers), amount due from customers on construction contracts, due from related parties, bank borrowings, accounts payable and accruals, subcontractors retention and due to related parties approximate their carrying amounts, largely due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. Long term receivables are evaluated by the Group based on parameters such as interest rates, specific country risk factors, individual credit worthiness of the customer and the risk characteristics of the financed project. Based on this evaluation, provisions are taken to account for the expected losses of these receivables. As at 2017, the carrying amounts of such receivables, net of provisions, are not materially different from their fair values. 7
2 Basis of preparation (continued) Financial risk management (continued) Fair value estimation The table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value and investment properties for which fair value is disclosed, by valuation method. The different levels have been defined as follows: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1). Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices) (Level 2). Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs) (Level 3). The following table presents the Group s assets that are measured at fair value and investment properties for which fair value is disclosed at 2017. Level 1 AED Level 2 AED Level 3 AED Total AED million million million million (unaudited) (unaudited) (unaudited) (unaudited) Assets Assets carried at fair value - Investment properties - - 40.7 40.7 Total assets - - 40.7 40.7 The following table presents the Group s assets that are measured at fair value and investment properties for which fair value is disclosed at 31 December 2016.

3 Accounting policies Changes in accounting policies The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period, except for the adoption of new and amended standards as set out below: (a) New and amended standards adopted by the Group There are no new standards, amendments or interpretations which are effective for the financial period commencing on 1 January 2017, which have a material impact on the Group s condensed consolidated interim financial statements. (b) New standards and amendments not early adopted by the Group Certain new standards and amendments to existing standards have been published and are mandatory for the Group s accounting periods beginning after 1 January 2018 or later periods, but have not been early adopted by the Group: IFRS 9, Financial instruments (effective from 1 January 2018); IFRS 15, Revenue from contracts with customers (effective from 1 January 2018); and IFRS 16, Leases (effective from 1 January 2019). Management anticipates that these new and revised standards, interpretations and amendments will be adopted in the Group s consolidated financial statements for the year beginning 1 January 2018 or as and when they are applicable. The adoption of these new standards, interpretations and amendments are expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group in the period of initial application and are currently being assessed by management for the concerned impact on the Group s consolidated financial statements. 9

5 Trade and other receivables (continued) In relation to a select number of projects involving either arbitrations against its customers to recover payment for unpaid works and/or long overdue contract balances where the Group is currently in discussion with either the customer or in some cases directly with the main employer in respect of settlement, AED 118 million is included in gross trade and other receivables and due from construction contract customers. In relation to this balance, AED 19 million has been provided for, resulting in a net balance of AED 99 million. Management is confident that it will be able to recover the net balance in full and that no further provision is required in the condensed consolidated interim financial statements. 6 Goodwill Goodwill attributable to cash generating units is as follows: 2017 (unaudited) 31 December 2016 (audited) Design Studio 144.0 144.0 Vedder 32.3 32.3 Depa Interiors Group 72.6 72.6 Deco Group 14.9 14.9 The Parker Company 17.0 17.0 Linder Middle East 16.5 16.5 297.3 297.3 Goodwill is tested for impairment annually or when circumstances indicate the carrying value may be impaired.

Report on review of condensed consolidated interim financial statements to the shareholders of Depa Limited Introduction We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated interim statement of financial condensed consolidated interim statements of profit or loss, other comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the six month period then ended and notes, comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes. Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with International Accounting Standard IAS 34 Interim n on these condensed consolidated interim financial statements based on our review. Scope of review We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, 'Review of interim financial information performed by the independent auditor of the entity'. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, 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 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.
