OTHER INFORMATION
Section 8: Alternative performance measures
The Group uses alternative performance measures (“APMs”), which are not defined or specified under IFRS. These
APMs, which are not considered to be a substitute for IFRS measures, provide additional helpful information. APMs are
consistent with how business performance is planned, reported and assessed internally by management and the Board,
and provide comparable information across the Group. The APMs below have been calculated on a see through/Unite
share basis, as referenced to the notes to the financial statements. Reconciliations to equivalent IFRS measures are
included in notes 2.2b and 2.2c. Definitions can also be found in the glossary.
Adjusted earnings reflects a more meaningful measure of the underlying earnings of the Group, excluding the nonrecurring impact of one-off transactions, and therefore improve comparability.
Non-EPRA measures may not have comparable calculation bases between companies and therefore may not provide
meaningful industry-wide comparability.
