Chairman and Executive Director's Combined Statement

The Company has started 2013 with strong results reflecting steady progress in both performing assets and development projects.

Our flagship project, AFIMALL City, demonstrated positive trends in all its operational indicators and has continued to provide strong support for Group revenues. At the end of Q1 2013, we launched construction of the first phase of Otradnoe - our large scale residential project in Odintsovo, Moscow Region. Significant progress was made across the entire portfolio of our development projects: Tverskaya Plaza Ic is on track for detailed design submission and receipt of the construction permit. At the same time, the approval process at Plazas IIa and IV is progressing as expected, whilst pre-design works are underway at our Bolshaya Pochtovaya and Paveletskaya projects. Finally, construction works are advancing at Kossinskaya.

We are also pleased to report that our achievements and strong reputation in the Russian real estate market have been recognised at the prestigious Russian Commercial Real Estate Awards where AFI Development was named "Developer of the Year 2012".

Looking ahead to the remainder of 2013, our focus will remain on progressing further with our development projects and continually improving the performance of our current assets. We expect the favourable economic climate in Russia to continue to support demand levels for high quality real estate assets, allowing us to further strengthen our market position and capitalise on attractive opportunities for further growth in returns from rental income and asset sales.

Projects update

AFIMALL City

As a result of additional leases signed during Q1 2013, occupancy levels increased to 81%. By March 2013, footfall to the centre also increased to 42,000 visitors per day on a monthly average, up 40% compared to Q1 2012. The revenue contribution of AFIMALL City in Q1 2013 reached US$23.2 million, up 7% compared to Q1 2012 and 21% compared to Q4 2012.

The first quarter of 2013 brought noticeable progress in construction at Moscow-City, the high-rise business district where AFIMALL City is located. The newly built Novotel Hotel, featuring 360 guest rooms, has opened its doors in the immediate vicinity of AFIMALL City. The office towers of Moscow-City generate continuing interest from potential tenants: in Q1 2013 Japan Tobacco International completed the acquisition of c. 10,000 sq. m. of gross office space in the Mercury City Tower.

The Moscow authorities are also progressing with the construction of an additional metro station in the vicinity of AFIMALL City, "Delovoy Centre", which is due to be completed by the end of 2013.

Otradnoe

During Q1 2013, AFI Development completed preparations for the start of construction of the first phase of its Otradnoe residential project. These included the appointment of a general contractor and site preparations for construction. Construction itself started with works on the first stage of the first phase of the project (54,000 sq.m. gross buildable area) at the end of the quarter.

In addition to construction works, the Company is preparing a marketing programme for the project.

Ozerkovskaya III

On 28 January 2013, the Company's subsidiary Krown Investments Ltd refinanced its construction costs for Ozerkovskaya III project with a credit line from JSC VTB Bank. The credit line totalling US$220 million carries an annual interest rate of 3 months Libor + 5.7%. The credit line was fully drawn down in two tranches in February and in March 2013.

In February 2013, AFI Development completed the purchase of the remaining 50% interest in the Ozerkovskaya project from its joint venture partner, Super Passion Limited, for a total cash consideration of US$227.5 million and settled all outstanding liabilities to its partner in Krown Investments LLC (the holding company with the rights to the project). As a consequence of the acquisition, the Company became the sole owner of Ozerkovskaya III project.

Negotiations with potential buyers and tenants for the project are on-going.

Tverskaya Plaza Ic

AFI Development is progressing with the preliminary design works for Tverskaya Plaza Ic, the Company's new Class A office project. On 7 May 2013, the Company obtained planning approval for the land plot ('GPZU'), which paves the way for developing a detailed building design necessary to apply for the construction permit. AFI Development is preparing for a tender to appoint a general contractor for the project and is planning to apply for a construction permit in Q4 2013.

Independent auditors' report on review of condensed consolidated interim financial information to the members of AFI DEVELOPMENT PLC

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of financial position of AFI Development PLC as at 31 March 2013 and the related condensed consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the three-month period then ended and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory notes (interim financial information). The Company's Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of this interim financial information in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting". Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with the 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.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim financial information is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting".

The principal activity of the Group is real estate investment and development.

The principal activity of the Company is the holding of investments in subsidiaries and joint ventures.

2. basis of preparation

Statement of compliance

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting". They do not include all of the information and disclosures required for the full annual financial statements.

Estimates

The preparation of interim financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

In preparing these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those applied to the consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2012.

New standards, interpretations and amendments adopted by the Group

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group's annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2012, except for the adoption of new standards and interpretations effective as of 1 January 2013.

New standards, interpretations and amendments adopted by the Group (continued)

The Group applies, for the first time, certain standards and amendments that require restatement of previous financial statements. These include IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements, IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements, IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement and amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. As required by IAS 34, the nature and the effect of these changes are disclosed below.

Several other new standards and amendments apply for the first time in 2013. However, they do not impact the annual consolidated financial statements of the Group or the interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group.

The nature and the impact of each new standard/amendment is described below:

IAS 1 Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income - Amendments to IAS 1

The amendments to IAS 1 introduce a grouping of items presented in other comprehensive income (OCI). Items that could be reclassified (or recycled) to profit or loss at a future point in time now have to be presented separately from items that will never be reclassified. The amendment affected presentation only and had no impact on the Group's financial position or performance.

IAS 1 Clarification of the requirement for comparative information (Amendment)

The amendment to IAS 1 clarifies the difference between voluntary additional comparative information and the minimum required comparative information. An entity must include comparative information in the related notes to the financial statements when it voluntarily provides comparative information beyond the minimum required comparative period. The additional voluntarily comparative information does not need to be presented in a complete set of financial statements.

An opening statement of financial position must be presented when an entity applies an accounting policy retrospectively, makes retrospective restatements, or reclassifies items in its financial statements, provided any of those changes has a material effect on the statement of financial position at the beginning of the preceding period. The amendment clarifies that a third balance sheet does not have to be accompanied by comparative information in the related notes. Under IAS 34, the minimum items required for interim condensed financial statements do not include an opening statement of financial position.

IAS 34 Interim financial reporting and segment information for total assets and liabilities (Amendment)

The amendment clarifies the requirements in IAS 34 relating to segment information for total assets and liabilities for each reportable segment to enhance consistency with the requirements in IFRS 8 Operating Segments. Total assets and liabilities for a reportable segment need to be disclosed only when the amounts are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and there has been a material change in the total amount disclosed in the entity's previous annual consolidated financial statements for that reportable segment. The Group has been providing this disclosure already as total segment assets were reported to the chief operating decision maker (CODM).

New standards, interpretations and amendments adopted by the Group (continued)

IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and IAS 27 Separate Financial Statements

IFRS 10 establishes a single control model that applies to all entities including special purpose entities. IFRS 10 replaces the parts of previously existing IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements that dealt with consolidated financial statements and SIC-12 Consolidation - Special Purpose Entities. IFRS 10 changes the definition of control such that an investor controls an investee when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee. To meet the definition of control in IFRS 10, all three criteria must be met, including:

(a) an investor has power over an investee; (b) the investor has exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and (c) the investor has the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of the investor's returns. IFRS 10 had no impact on the consolidation of investments held by the Group.

IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements and IAS 28 Investment in Associates and Joint Ventures

IFRS 11 replaces IAS 31 Interests in Joint Ventures and SIC-13 Jointly-controlled Entities - Non-monetary Contributions by Venturers. IFRS 11 removes the option to account for jointly controlled entities (JCEs) using proportionate consolidation. Instead, JCEs that meet the definition of a joint venture under IFRS 11 must be accounted for using the equity method.

The application of this new standard impacted the financial position of the Group by replacing proportionate consolidation of all the joint ventures of the Group, with the equity method of accounting. IFRS 11 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. The effect of IFRS 11 is described in more detail in note 11, which includes quantification of the effect on the financial statements.

IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement

IFRS 13 establishes a single source of guidance under IFRS for all fair value measurements. IFRS 13 does not change when an entity is required to use fair value, but rather provides guidance on how to measure fair value under IFRS when fair value is required or permitted. The application of IFRS 13 has not materially impacted the fair value measurements carried out by the Group. IFRS 13 also requires specific disclosures on fair values, some of which replace existing disclosure requirements in other standards, including IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures. Some of these disclosures are specifically required for financial instruments by IAS 34.16A(j), thereby affecting the interim condensed consolidated financial statements period. The Group provides these disclosures in note 24.

The Group has not early adopted any other standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.

Functional and presentation currency

These consolidated financial statements are presented in United States Dollars which is the Company's functional currency. All financial information presented in United States Dollars has been rounded to the nearest thousand, except when otherwise indicated.

Foreign operations

Each entity of the Group determines its own functional currency and items included in the financial statements of each entity are measured using its functional currency. Where the functional currency of an entity of the Group is other than US Dollars, which is the presentation currency of the Group, then the financial statements of the entity are translated in accordance with IAS 21 'The effects of changes in foreign exchange rates.

The table below shows the exchange rates of Russian Roubles, which is the functional currency of the Russian subsidiaries of the Group, to the US Dollar which is the presentation currency of the Group:

Exchange rate

Russian Roubles

As of: for US$1 Change

31 March 2013 31.0834 2.3 %

31 December 2012 30.3727 (5.7) %

31 March 2012 29.3282 (8.9) %

Average rate during:

Three-month period ended 31 March 2013 30.4142 1.3 %

Three-month period ended 31 March 2012 30.0278 3.5 %

3. significant accounting policies

The accounting policies applied by the Group in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are the same as those applied by the Group in its consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2012, except for the adoption of new standards and interpretations effective as of 1 January 2013 as described in the previous note.

4. OPERATING SEGMENTS

The Group has 5 reportable segments, as described below, which are the Group's strategic business units. The following summary describes the operation in each of the Group's reportable segments:

·; Development Projects - Commercial projects: Include construction of property for future lease.

·; Development Projects - Residential projects: Include construction and selling of residential properties.

·; Asset Management: Includes the operation of investment property for lease.

·; Hotel Operation: Includes the operation of Hotels.

·; Other - Land bank: Includes the investment and holding of property for future development.

Information regarding the results of each reportable segment is included below. Performance is measured based on segment profit before income tax, as included in the internal management reports that are reviewed by the Group's management team. Segment profit is used to measure performance as management believes that such information is the most relevant in evaluating the results of certain segments relative to other entities that operate within these industries. Inter-segment pricing is determined on an arm's length basis.

Reconciliations of reportable segment revenues, profit or loss, assets and liabilities and other material items.

5. ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

6. other expenses

7. FINANCE COST AND FINANCE INCOME

8. tAX EXPENSE

9. INVESTMENT PROPERTY

The carrying amount of investment property is the fair value of the property as determined by a registered independent appraiser having an appropriate recognised professional qualification and recent experience in the location and category of the property being valued. Fair values were determined having regard to recent market transactions for similar properties in the same location as the Group's investment property. The same applies for investment property under development in note 10 below. The last valuation took place on 31 December 2012. The cumulative adjustments for all projects, for both valuation dates are shown in line "Fair value adjustment" in the table above.

The decrease due to the effect of the foreign exchange rates is a result of the weakening of the rouble compared to the US Dollar by 2.3%, during the first quarter of 2013. The fair value adjustment gain in investments property is mostly related to this rouble weakening.

10. INVESTMENT PROPERTY UNDER DEVELOPMENT

The decrease due to the effect of the foreign exchange rates is a result of the Rouble weakening compared to the US Dollar by 2.3% during the first quarter of 2013.

11. SHARE OF INVESTMENT IN JOINT VENTURES

The group joint ventures are as follows:

50% interest in Nouana Limited with its subsidiary Tirel LLC, owner of a hotel in Kislovodsk and Craespon Management Ltd with its subsidiary Sanatorium Plaza LLC that operates the aforementioned hotel.

The Group also had a 50% interest in Westec Four Winds with its subsidiary Dulverton Ltd, owner of investment property in Moscow, which was disposed early January 2013, see notes 18 and 23.

The Group also had a 50% interest in Crown Investments Ltd, owner of investment and trading properties in Moscow. On 12 February 2013 the Group acquired the remaining 50% shareholding, deemed as acquisition of assets and liabilities. The impact of this acquisition on Group's assets and liabilities is described further below in the note.

Under IAS 31 Interests in Joint Ventures (prior to the transition to IFRS 11), the Group's interest in these joint ventures was reclassified as a jointly controlled entity and the Group's share of the assets, liabilities, revenue, income and expenses were proportionately consolidated in the consolidated financial statements. Upon adoption of IFRS 11, the Group has determined its interest to be a joint venture and it is required to be accounted for using the equity method. The effect of applying IFRS 11 is as follows:

There is no material impact on the interim condensed consolidated statement of cash flows or the basic and diluted Earnings per share.

The above mentioned acquisition of the 50% shareholding in the previously joint venture Crown Investments LLC had the following effect on the Group's assets and liabilities:

12. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

13. LOANS RECEIVABLE

Terms and loan repayment schedule

Terms and conditions of outstanding loans were as follows:

Due to the reason that the Group acquired, during the period, the remaining assets and liabilities of the joint venture Crown Investments any loan balance with other group entities are now eliminated in full upon consolidation. As a result the unsecured loans to joint ventures have significantly decreased.

14. TRADING PROPERTIES

Trading properties comprise of the unsold apartments and parking spaces. During the period the Group has sold a number of the remaining parking places and their cost was transferred to income statement. The transfer from trading properties under construction represents the completion of the construction of the 643 parking places units which are now ready for disposal according to note 15 below.

15. TRADING PROPERTIES UNDER CONSTRUCTION

Trading properties under construction comprise of "Otradnoye" project which involves primarily the construction of residential properties. The 643 parking places underneath AFIMALL City were completed during the period and reclassified to Trading properties as the company has the intention to sell based on the below agreement.

In November 2012 Bellgate Constructions Limited ("Bellgate"), the Company's subsidiary owning and operating AFIMALL City, entered into an agreement to dispose approximately 643 parking lots to VTB Bank. The transaction is structured in two stages. The first stage entailed a sale-purchase transaction between Bellgate and VTB Bank on 21,354 sq.m. of parking space. During the second stage 9,247 sq.m. owned (at completion) by VTB Bank will be exchanged for 7,847 sq. m. owned by Bellgate. This two-tier transaction structure stemmed from the fact that part of the parking space that VTB Bank is interested in purchasing is located on a land plot to which Bellgate has not yet registered leasehold rights. The resulting estimated total net cash flow for AFI Development is US$54.5 million and net profit is circa US$20 million. In December 2012 the Company received 90% of the total consideration in the amount of US$51.4 million (net of VAT), which are presented in current liabilities as advances for the sale of trading properties. The remaining 10% is expected to be received at completion, when Bellgate registers the title to the parking to VTB Bank.

16. TRADE AND OTHER RECEIVABLES

Trade receivables net

Trade receivables are presented net of an accumulated provision for doubtful debts of US$13,154 thousand (2012: US$13,736 thousand).

17. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

18. ASSETS HELD FOR SALE

In December 2012 the Company entered into an agreement to dispose of, its 50% of stake in Westec Four Winds Limited (along with its partner, Snegiri Development), which had developed and operated Four Winds. The deal was completed in January 2013 with total consideration received by the Company of circa US$103.4 million. The transaction also resulted in reduction of overall debt of AFI Development following the removal of the project loan by Nordea Bank from its consolidated balance sheet. The total profit on disposal was US$50,725 thousand, US$18,637 thousand of which were recognised as a fair value gain in 2012 and the rest upon completion. The corresponding translation reserve was reclassified to profit or loss upon the disposal of the joint venture in January 2013. An amount of US$30,288 was reclassified as realised foreign exchange loss in financing expenses.

19. SHARE CAPITAL AND RESERVES

Employee Share option plan

There were no changes as to the employee share option plan during the three-month period ended 31 March 2013.

Translation reserve

The translation reserve comprises all foreign currency differences arising from the translation of the financial statements of foreign operations to the Group presentation currency and the foreign exchange differences on loans designated as loans to an investee company which are accounted for as part of the investor's investment (IAS21.15) as their repayment is not planned or likely to occur in the foreseeable future. These foreign exchange differences are recognised directly to Translation Reserve.

Retained earnings

The amount at each reporting date is available for distribution. No dividends were proposed, declared or paid during the period ended 31 March 2013.

20. LOANS AND BORROWINGS

There were no material changes to loans during the quarter ended 31 March 2013 apart from the following:

On 25 January 2013 OOO Krown Investments ("Krown"), a 100% subsidiary, acquired a new secured loan from JSC VTB Bank for refinancing the repayment of borrowings due to related parties.
