Secured Property Developments plc
Chairman's statement
The UK property market remains challenging with strong competition in all
sectors and in the areas previously identified as potential targets for
investment.
The Board continues to seek the right opportunity to acquire either an existing
residential property for conversion or a potential development site in the
South or South East.
Due to the lack of available sites at sensible prices and following a Board
Meeting held in December 2015, the decision was taken to widen the search area
outside the M25 and to also consider acquiring a former commercial building
with a view to converting it to residential, whether it be from former offices
or public houses.
Residential investments are also being considered as well as new build
apartments which might benefit from Crossrail in 2018 and properties have so
far been appraised in Romford, Woolwich and Acton.
In order to add further firepower to our available resources, the Company's
final property in Newborough in Scarborough was offered at Allsop's February
2016 auction and I am pleased to report that it successfully sold for a price
in excess of the reserve at £327,500.
We will continue to search over the forthcoming year for the right product and
may well consider a joint venture if the right development opportunity should
arise.
Finally, I would like to thank my predecessor, David Duffield, for all his
efforts for the Company up until his retirement.
AGM
The Annual General Meeting will take place at the Royal Automobile Club, 89
Pall Mall, London SW1Y 5HS on Wednesday 6th July 2016 at 11:00 am and the
Directors look forward to meeting those shareholders who can attend.

risk and liquidity risk. The Board reviews and agrees policies for managing
each of these risks and they are summarised below.

The Group has no exposure at the present time to interest rate risk however the
Group's policy is to borrow at the lowest rates for periods that do not carry
excessive time premiums.
Liquidity risk
As regards liquidity, the Group's policy has throughout the year been to ensure
that the group is able at all times to meet its financial commitments as and
when they fall due.
Future Developments
Following the sale of the last of the investment properties and repayment of

Report of the Directors
for the Year Ended 31 December 2015 (continued)
STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES
The directors are responsible for preparing the Report of the Directors and the
financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each
financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the
financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted
Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law),
including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard
applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. Under company law the directors
must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they
give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and the group
and of the profit or loss of the group for that period. In preparing these
financial statements, the directors are required to:
* select suitable accounting policies and then apply them
consistently;
* make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable
and prudent;
* ensure applicable UK accounting standards are followed subject
to any material departures disclosed and explained in the
financial statements; and
* prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis
unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will
continue in business.
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are
sufficient to show and explain the Company's and the Group's transactions and
disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the
Company and the Group and enable them to ensure that the financial statements
comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding
the assets of the Company and the Group and hence for taking reasonable steps
for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
STATEMENT AS TO DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO AUDITOR
So far as the directors are aware, there is no relevant audit information (as
defined by Section 418 of the Companies Act 2006) of which the Group's auditor
is unaware, and each director has taken all the steps that he ought to have
taken as a director in order to make himself aware of any relevant audit
information and to establish that the Group's auditor is aware of that
information.
AUDITOR
The auditor, KPMG LLP, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming
Annual General Meeting.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31 December 2015
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Secured Property Developments plc (the "Company") is a company limited by
shares and incorporated and domiciled in the UK.
These Group and parent company financial statements were prepared in accordance
with Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard
applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland ("FRS 102") as issued in August
2014. The amendments to FRS 102 issued in July 2015 and effective immediately
have been applied. The presentation currency of these financial statements is
sterling. All amounts in the financial statements have been rounded to the
nearest £1.
In the transition to FRS 102 from old UK GAAP, the Group has made measurement
and recognition adjustments. An explanation of how the transition to FRS 102
has affected financial position and financial performance of the Group is
provided on page 28 to 29.
In the transition to FRS 102 from old UK GAAP, the Company has made measurement
and recognition adjustments. An explanation of how the transition to FRS 102
has affected financial position and financial performance of the Company is
provided on page 30 to 32.
Basis of preparing the financial statements
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial
Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK
and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements
have been prepared under the historical cost convention, except for tangible
fixed assets measured in accordance with the revaluation model.
Turnover
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or
receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales
taxes.
Going Concern Basis
These financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis of
accounting notwithstanding that the Parent Company had net current liabilities
of £443,323 as at 31 December 2015. The net current liability position in the
Parent Company arises as a result of inter-company indebtedness within the
Group which is eliminated on consolidation leaving positive Group net current
assets as shown in the Group Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The directors have prepared cash flow forecasts for a period of 12 months
following the approval of these financial statements and consider the Group to
have sufficient cash to be able to meet its financial obligations for at least
the next 12 months, based on these cash flow forecasts.
For these reasons, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing
the annual financial statements. Accordingly, the financial statements do not
include the adjustments that would result if the Group and Company were unable
to continue as a going concern.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements - continued
for the Year Ended 31 December 2015
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the
Company and its subsidiary undertakings made up to 31 December 2015. A
subsidiary is an entity that is controlled by the parent. The results of
subsidiary undertakings are included in the consolidated profit and loss
account from the date that control commences until the date that control
ceases. Control is established when the Company has the power to govern the
operating and financial policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its
activities. In assessing control, the Group takes into consideration potential
voting rights that are currently exercisable.
Under Section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 the Company is exempt from the
requirement to present its own profit and loss account.
In the parent financial statements, investments in subsidiaries are carried at
cost less impairment.
Classification of financial instruments issued by the group
In accordance with FRS 102.22, financial instruments issued by the group are
treated as equity only to the extent that they meet the following two
conditions:
(a) they include no contractual obligations upon the group to deliver cash or
other financial assets or to exchange financial assets or financial liabilities
with another party under conditions that are potentially unfavourable to the
group; and
(b) where the instrument will or may be settled in the entity's own
equity instruments, it is either a non-derivative that includes no obligation
to deliver a variable number of the entity's own equity instruments or is a
derivative that will be settled by the entity exchanging a fixed amount of cash
or other financial assets for a fixed number of its own equity instruments.
To the extent that this definition is not met, the proceeds of issue are
classified as a financial liability. Where the instrument so classified takes
the legal form of the entity's own shares, the amounts presented in these
financial statements for called up share capital and share premium account
exclude amounts in relation to those shares.
Investment properties
Investment properties are properties which are held either to earn rental
income or for capital appreciation or for both. Investment properties are
recognised initially at cost.
Subsequent to initial recognition
i. investment properties whose fair value can be measured reliably without
undue cost or effort are held at fair value. Any gains or losses arising from
changes in the fair value are recognised in profit or loss in the period that
they arise; and
ii. no depreciation is provided in respect of investment properties applying
the fair value model.
If a reliable measure is not available without undue cost or effort for an item
of investment property, this item is thereafter accounted for as tangible fixed
assets in accordance with section 17 until a reliable measure of fair value
becomes available.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements - continued
for the Year Ended 31 December 2015
Taxation
Tax on the profit or loss for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax
is recognised in the profit and loss account except to the extent that it
relates to items recognised directly in equity or other comprehensive income,
in which case it is recognised directly in equity or other comprehensive
income.
Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or
loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the
balance sheet date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous
years.
Deferred tax is provided on timing differences which arise from the inclusion
of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in
which they are recognised in the financial statements.
Deferred tax is measured at the tax rate that is expected to apply to the
