This accounting treatment is consistent with the disclosures outlined in the EM and represents the summation of the results for the four Trusts comprising the stapled entity. It should be noted that investors in DRT have been entitled to the returns of the underlying Trusts from 1 July 2004. For statutory reporting purposes, DB RREEF Diversified Trust (“DDF”) was deemed to be the acquiring entity. Accordingly, the other three entities, being DB RREEF Office Trust (“DOT”), DB RREEF Industrial Trust (“DIT”) and DB RREEF Operations Trust (“DRO”), are consolidated as subsidiary entities for accounting purposes. The financial statements reflect 12 months of DDF results and nine months of DOT, DIT and DRO results. The earnings per stapled security per the 30 June 2005 accounts are 10.1 cents (based on the weighted number of units on issue for DDF from 1 July 2004 to 30 June 2005). This is calculated based on the reported net profit after capital items. 2 Capital items comprise net profit from asset sales and costs associated with the restructure. 3 Net profit attributable to security holders reflects the writing-off of transaction costs and includes capital profits. Pound Road West, Dandenong VIC DB RREEF Trust Annual Report 2005 5 letter from the chair dear investor I am pleased to present the first Annual Report for DB RREEF Trust for the year ending 30 June 2005. This year has been a year of significant change in the operation of your Trust. On 27 September 2004, unitholders met to consider, and subsequently approved, a proposal: ■ to staple DB RREEF Diversified Trust, DB RREEF Industrial Trust, DB RREEF Office Trust and DB RREEF Operations Trust units to create DB RREEF Trust; ■ to acquire a portfolio of A$1.0 billion of US industrial property; and ■ to partially internalise the management of your Trust. Since that day a significant amount of work has been undertaken to implement the proposal, restructure the Trust’s debt and implement the management structure necessary to drive the business into the future. While a number of implementation activities will be completed over the next few months, I am very pleased to report that the key building blocks for the future growth of DB RREEF Trust are now in place. The final distribution for the six months to 30 June 2005 is 5.3 cents per stapled security which brings the total distribution for the year to 10.5 cents per stapled security. This is in line with our forecast outlined in the Explanatory Memorandum issued as part of the stapling process in August 2004. Total assets of the Trust as at 30 June 2005 were $7.0 billion, with security holders equity of $3.5 billion. The resultant net tangible assets per security is $1.29, which is seven cents above December 2004. The Trust’s gearing as at 30 June 2005 was 39 percent which is below the forecast gearing level outlined in the EM debt forecast. Our Chief Executive Officer, Victor Hoog Antink, will in his report provide details of the activities and achievements that improved the quality and value of your Trust. Over the past year we have made significant changes to your Board and the overall corporate governance of your Trust. Your Board now comprises seven members, the majority of whom are independent. Along with the usual duties of a board, the Board has established a number of key committees that oversee various aspects of the operations of your Trust. These and other governance aspects are reviewed in the Corporate Governance Statement contained in this Annual Report. 6 DB RREEF Trust Annual Report 2005 14 Moore Street, Canberra ACT On behalf of the Board, I wish to thank you for your continued support during this period of significant change.
