The main features of the current economic context are a major external debt burden, a financial system in crisis, country risk indicators far above normal average and an economic recession that has already lasted more than four years. This situation has led to a significant decrease in the demand for goods and services and a large rise in the level of unemployment. The Government's ability to comply with its commitments has been impaired, which led it to default in the payment of external debt services at the beginning of 2002. Furthermore, it is expected that there will be presidential elections during 2003. To overcome the crisis the country is undergoing, as from December 2001 the government issued measures to restrict the free availability and circulation of cash and the transfer of foreign currency abroad. Subsequently, as from January 2002, laws, decrees and regulations were enacted that involved profound changes to the prevailing economic model and the amendment of the Convertibility Law in force until then. Among the measures adopted was the establishment of a single free exchange market system, that led to a significant devaluation of the Argentine peso during the first months of 2002; the pesification of certain assets and liabilities in foreign currency held abroad and the resulting increase in local prices. Impact on the Company's financial position As mentioned in Note 13 to the unaudited financial statements, during November 2002, the Company successfully completed the restructuring of its financial debt. Along these lines, the current cash position will enable the Company to take advantage of the opportunities available on the real estate market, as it did over the previous decade. The future development of the economic crisis might require the Government to modify some measures adopted or issue additional regulations. Therefore, the Company's financial statements should be considered in the light of these circumstances. 5 IRSA INVERSIONES Y REPRESENTACIONES SOCIEDAD ANONIMA AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTD.) NOTE 2: BASIS OF CONSOLIDATION - CORPORATE CONTROL a) Basis of consolidation The consolidated financial statements have been prepared following the guidelines of Technical Resolution No. 4 of the Argentine Federation of Professional Councils of Economic Sciences (F.A.C.P.C.E.), pursuant to which the Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2002 and 2001 of IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones Sociedad Anonima, the Statements of Income and the Statements of Cash Flows for the six month then ended were consolidated with the financial statements of those companies in which has the necessary votes to exercise control over the corporate decisions. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The following table shows the data concerning the corporate control: December 31, December 31, 2002 2001 ---------------------------------------------- DIRECT OR INDIRECT % OF COMPANIES VOTING SHARES -------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------- IRSA International Ltd (1) - 100,00 Ritelco S.A.(1) 100,00 - Palermo Invest S.A. 66,67 66,67 Abril S. A. 83,33 83,33 Pereiraola S. A. 83,33 83,33 Baldovinos S. A. 83,33 83,33 Hoteles Argentinos S. A. 80,00 80,00 Buenos Aires Trade & Finance Center S.A (3) 100,00 50,00 Alto Palermo S.A ("APSA") (2) 49,99 49,34 (1) In accordance with mentioned in Note 16 to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, as of December 31, 2002 the Company decided the liquidation anticipated of IRSA International Ltd. (2) As from the quarter ended on 30 September 2002 and as a result of the Company's acquisition of the convertible negotiable bonds (CNB) referred to in Note 21 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company is consolidating its financial statements with those of its subsidiary Alto Palermo S.A. Furthermore, during January 2003, we purchased an additional 3.4 million shares in Alto Palermo, for a total of U$S 2.3 million, taking our equity interest to 54.9%. We also purchased 2.6 million CNB, for a value of U$S 2.9 million, which, together with the 27.3 million underwritten at the time of the issue, has taken our position to 59.9% of the overall CNB issued by our subsidiary. 6 IRSA INVERSIONES Y REPRESENTACIONES SOCIEDAD ANONIMA AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTD.) NOTE 2: (Continued) (3) On August 16, 2002, the Company and RAGHSA S.A. agreed: i) the redistribution of the block 5M, of the Old Puerto Madero of the City of Buenos Aires, ii) the division and distribution of the charge and commitment to build on those plots of land, previously undertaken before Corporacion Antiguo Puerto Madero S.A.(CAPM), iii) the renegotiation of the other commitments and obligations also assumed before CAPM and iv) the exchange of the shares issued by ARSA, BARSA and BAT&FCSA, respectively, which own the plots of land included in block 5M. As a result of the share exchange, the Company now owns 100% of the shares in BAT&FCSA, and transferred its 50% interest in ARSA and BARSA respectively, to RAGHSA S.A. As a result of the consolidation of the related company Alto Palermo S.A., mentioned above, since the beginning of this fiscal year the Company has discontinued the application of the proportional consolidation method in the preparation of the income statements. Accordingly, the financial statement figures originally issued as of December 31, 2001 have been reclassified to conform them to the presentation as of December 31, 2002. b) Consideration of the effects of inflation The financial statements have been prepared in constant currency, reflecting the overall effects of inflation through August 31, 1995. As from that date, in accordance with professional accounting standards and the requirements of the control authorities, restatement of the financial statements was discontinued until December 31, 2001. As from January 1, 2002, in accordance with Resolution No. 3/2002 of the Professional Council in Economic Sciences of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires and Resolution No. 415 of the National Securities Commission, the effects of inflation are being recognized in the financial statements. To this end, the restatement method established by Technical Pronouncement No. 6 of the F.A.C.P.C.E. has been followed. As a consequence of the above, the Company's financial statements are presented in constant currency of December 31, 2002, having considered that the accounting measurements restated by the change in the purchasing power of the currency until August 31, 1995 and those arising between that date and December 31, 2001 are stated in currency of the latter date. The above restatement was made applying the coefficients prepared based on the domestic wholesale price index. The Company used a conversion factor to restate the comparative financial statements in constant Argentine pesos of December 31, 2002 for comparative purposes. 7 IRSA INVERSIONES Y REPRESENTACIONES SOCIEDAD ANONIMA AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTD.) NOTE 2: (Continued) c. Reclassifications Certain reclassifications of prior period information have been made to conform with the current period presentation. d. Acquisition of related companies During the quarter ended December 31, 2002, the Company acquired 30.955% of the capital stock and registered, non-endorsable, convertible negotiable obligations issued by Valle de Las Lenas S.A., falling due on October 31, 2005, with a face value of US$ 3.7 million, for approximately US$ 2.4 million. Those shares and negotiable obligations have temporarily been valued at their acquisition cost, restated in currency values as of December 2002. e. Sales in jointly controlled affiliated companies incorporated abroad i) Latin American Econetworks N.V (LAE) : On November 7, 2001, the Company sold its interest in LAE for a total consideration of US$ 5,250. The price was fully collected on that date. In July 2000, this company was conceived as a developer of software, technology and internet services. ii) Brazil Realty S.A. Empreendimentos e Participacoes ("Brazil Realty"): As established by the agreement signed on February 28, 2002 and the First Amendment dated May 3, 2002, between Ritelco S.A, IRSA International Limited, IRSA and Creed Holding Ltd, through its subsidiary Ritelco S.A., the Company sold 100% of its participation in Brazil Realty for US$ 44,187 thousand, which had been collected in full at the date of issue of these financial statements. NOTE 3: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The financial statements of the subsidiaries mentioned in Note 2 have been prepared on a consistent basis with those applied by IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones Sociedad Anonima. 8 IRSA INVERSIONES Y REPRESENTACIONES SOCIEDAD ANONIMA AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTD.) NOTE 3: (Continued) a. Jointly controlled affiliated companies incorporated abroad The financial statements of the related companies under joint control set up abroad, used for application of the equity method of accounting to value the investment in those companies, were converted into Argentine pesos at the year-end rate of exchange based on the financial statements of those companies stated in the currency of the country of origin. The conversion method envisages the conversion of monetary assets and liabilities at the exchange rate in force at the end of each period and the non-monetary assets and liabilities and equity accounts based on amounts adjusted for inflation, if applicable, at the exchange rate in force at the end of each period. Average exchange rates were used for the conversion of financial statements that reflect the results for the periods. The net gain/loss for monetary conversion is included in the Financial results, net. Since March 31, 1999, as a consequence of changes in the variables to measure fluctuations in domestic prices, and the performance of the Brazilian currency compared to the Argentine peso, IRSA International Limited has decided to value its investments in fixed assets and other intangible assets that cannot be disposed of by its subsidiary, Brazil Realty S.A. Empreendimentos e Participacoes, at their original cost in pesos, less applicable accumulated depreciation, following the calculation method laid down by Technical Resolution No. 13, which was approved by the March 1999 Resolution of the Administrative Board of the Argentine Federation of Professional Councils in Economic Sciences. b. Shares and options of Banco Hipotecario S.A. The shares in Banco Hipotecario S.A. held by Ritelco S.A. (a wholly-owned subsidiary) have been valued at their quotation at the end of the period, less estimated selling expenses, while options were valued at restated cost as mentioned in Note 1.b) to the individual unaudited financial statements or estimated net realizable value, whichever is lower. 9 IRSA INVERSIONES Y REPRESENTACIONES SOCIEDAD ANONIMA AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTD.) NOTE 3: (Continued) c. Revenue Recognition The Company`s revenues mainly stem from office rental, shopping center operations, development and sale of real estate, hotel operations and, to a lesser extent, from e-commerce activities. See Note 4 for details on the Company's business segments. As discussed in Note 2.a., the consolidated statements of income were prepared following the guidelines of Technical Resolution No. 4 of the F.A.C.P.C.E. o Leases and services from shopping center operations Leases with tenants are accounted for as operating leases. Tenants are generally charged a rent, which consists of the higher of (i) a monthly base rent (the "Base Rent") and (ii) a specified percentage of the tenant's monthly gross retail sales (the "Percentage Rent") (which generally ranges between 4% and 8% of tenant's gross sales). Furthermore, pursuant to the rent escalation clause in most leases, a tenant's Base Rent generally increases between 4% and 7% each year during the term of the lease. Minimum rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Certain lease agreements contain provisions, which provide for rents based on a percentage of sales or based on a percentage of sales volume above a specified threshold. The Company determines the compliance with specific targets and calculates the additional rent on a monthly basis as provided for in the contracts. Thus, these contingent rents are not recognized until the required thresholds are exceeded. 10 IRSA INVERSIONES Y REPRESENTACIONES SOCIEDAD ANONIMA AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTD.) NOTE 3: (Continued) c. Revenue Recognition (Continued) o Leases and services from shopping center operations (Continued) Generally, the Company's lease agreements vary from 36 to 120 months. Law No. 24,808 provides that tenants may rescind commercial lease agreements after the initial six months, upon not less than 60 days' written notice, subject to penalties which vary from one to one and a half months rent if the tenant rescinds during the first year of its lease, and one month of rent if the tenant rescinds after the first year of its lease. The Company also charges its tenants a monthly administration fee, prorated among the tenants according to their leases, which varies from shopping center to shopping center, relating to the administration and maintenance of the common area and the administration of contributions made by tenants to finance promotional efforts for the overall shopping centers operations. Administration fees are recognized monthly when earned. In addition to rent, tenants are generally charged "admission rights", a non-refundable admission fee that tenants may be required to pay upon entering into a lease and upon lease renewal. Admission right is normally paid in one lump sum or in a small number of monthly installments. Admission rights are recognized using the straight-line method over the life of the respective lease agreements. Furthermore, the lease agreements generally provide for the reimbursement of real estate taxes, insurance, advertising and certain common area maintenance costs. These additional rents and tenant reimbursements are accounted for on the accrual basis. o Credit card operations Revenues derived from credit card transactions consist of commissions and financing income. Commissions are recognized at the time the merchants' transactions are processed, while financing income is recognized when earned. o Hotel operations The Company recognizes revenues from its rooms, catering, and restaurant facilities as earned on the close of business each day. 11 IRSA INVERSIONES Y REPRESENTACIONES SOCIEDAD ANONIMA AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTD.) NOTE 3: (Continued) c. Revenue Recognition (Continued) o International operations As of December 31, 2001, the Company held a 49.34% ownership interest in Brazil Realty, a company operating in Brazil, which business primarily comprised the same type of operations related to real estate conducted by the Company in Argentina.

Intangible assets, net Intangible assets are carriedat cost adjusted for inflation, less accumulated depreciation. o Trademarks Trademarks include the expenses and fees related to their registration. o Advertising expenses Advertising expenses relate to the Torres de Abasto project, the opening of Abasto Shopping and promotion costs related to Paseo Alcorta. The expenses incurred in relation to Torres de Abasto project are recognized in the statement of operations as determined under the percentage-of-completion method. Other advertising expenses are amortized under the straight-line method over a term of 3 years. o Investment projects Investment projects represent expenses primarily related to marketing efforts incurred by the Alto Palermo S.A. for the selling of merchandise through certain means of communication. These costs are capitalized and amortized to income under the straight-line method as from the start up date of the project. These expenses are written off upon abandonment or disposal of project. 12 IRSA INVERSIONES Y REPRESENTACIONES SOCIEDAD ANONIMA AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTD.) NOTE 3: (Continued) d. Intangible assets, net (Coninued) o Goodwill Representing the excess of cost over the fair value of net identifiable assets acquired, is stated at cost adjusted for inflation at the end of the period, and is amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated economic life, not exceeding 10 years. The goodwill included in this caption was generated by the purchase of shares in Tarshop S.A., Inversha S.A., Pentigras S.A. and Fibesa S.A. o Tenants list-Patio Bullrich This item represents the acquired tenant list of the Patio Bullrich shopping mall and is amortized using the straight-line method over a five-year period. e. Issuance of new technical pronouncements In accordance with mentioned in Note 1.c) to the individual unaudited financial statements, the main amendments to the new Technical Pronouncements, which would mean significant adjustments being made to the Company's financial statements, are related to the recognition of income tax according to the deferred tax method and of the interest rate swap contract at the subsidiary Alto Palermo S.A.

(Indarsa) to Puerto Retiro S.A. Concurrently with the complaint, at the request of plaintiff, the bankruptcy court granted an order restraining the ability of Puerto Retiro to sell or dispose in any manner the real estate property purchased from Tandanor S.A. ("Tandanor"). Indarsa had purchased 90% of the capital stock of Tandanor, a formerly state owned company privatized in 1991, engaged in the shipyard industry. In June 1993, Tandanor sold the plot of land near Puerto Madero denominated "Planta 1" to Puerto Retiro S.A. 25 IRSA INVERSIONES Y REPRESENTACIONES SOCIEDAD ANONIMA AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTD.) NOTE 14: (Continued) Indarsa did not comply with the payment of the outstanding price for the purchase of the stock of Tandanor, and therefore the Ministry of Defense requested the bankruptcy of Indarsa. Since the only asset of Indarsa were the shareholdings in Tandanor, the Ministry of Defense is pursuing to extend the bankruptcy to other companies or individuals which, according to its view, acted as an economic group, and therefore, requested the extension of the bankruptcy to Puerto Retiro which acquired Planta 1 from Tandanor. The lawsuit is at its first stages. Puerto Retiro S.A. answered the claim and appealed the preventive measures ordered. This appeal was overruled on December 14, 2000. Puerto Retiro S.A. believes, pursuant to the advice of its legal advisors, that the plaintiff's claim shall be rejected by the courts. Hoteles Argentinos S.A.: mortgage loan The Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting of Hoteles Argentinos S.A. held on January 5, 2001, approved taking a long-term mortgage loan from Bank Boston N.A. Buenos Aires for a total of US$ 12,000,000 to be used to refinance existing debts. The term of the loan was agreed at 60 months payable in 19 equal and quarterly installments of US$ 300,000 and one final payment of US$ 6,300,000. The agreement was signed on January 26, 2001. Interest is paid quarterly in arrears at an annual interest rate equivalent to LIBOR for nine-month loans plus the applicable mark-up per the contract, which consists in a variable interest rate applicable during the interest bearing periods, which ranges from 6.56% to 8.46% per year. The guarantee granted was a senior mortgage on a Company property, which houses the Hotel Sheraton Libertador Buenos Aires. At the date of issue of these financial statements, as a result of the current economic situation, the lack of credit and the crisis of the Argentine financial system, principal installments of US$ 300 thousand falling due on Juanuary 26, April 29, July 29, October 26, 2002 and January 26 2003, respectivelly and the interest installment amounting to US$ 315 thousand falling due on July 29, October 26, 2002 and January 26, 2003 were not paid. Although Hoteles Argentinos' Management is renegotiating the debt with its creditors, as failure to pay the installments when due entitles the bank to require acceleration of principal and interest maturities, the loan has been classified and is shown under current financial loans in these financial statements. Alto Palermo S.A.- Restricted assets. a) As of December 31, 2002, APSA records funds for $ 108 thousand in other current receivables, which have been restricted by the Federal Court of First Instance dealing with Labor Matters No. 40 - Single Clerk's Office, in relation to the case entitled "Del Valle Soria, Delicia v. New Shopping S.A.", dismissal without legal justification. b) As of December 31, 2002, the Company records $ 14.5 million for shares in Emprendimiento Recoleta S.A. on which a pledge has been set up. 26 IRSA INVERSIONES Y REPRESENTACIONES SOCIEDAD ANONIMA AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTD.) NOTE 14: (Continued) c) As of December 31, 2002, the Company records a balance of $ 4.7 million in non-current financial debts, corresponding to derivative financial instruments used as collateral for operations. d) As of December 31, 2002, Shopping Neuquen S.A. includes $ 52 thousand in financial loans, corresponding to a mortgage set up on acquired land for $ 3,289 thousand. e) On January 18, 2001, Shopping Alto Palermo S.A. issued negotiable obligations secured by all the shares representing its corporate capital transferred in trust in favor of their holders. f) On December 19, 2001 a "Guarantee Trust" agreement was entered into by and between Tarshop S.A., as Trustor, and HSBC Participaciones (Argentina) S.A., as Trustee, to secure compliance by Tarshop S.A with its obligations with the beneficiary, HSBC Bank Argentina S.A.. Those obligations include a loan for $ 1.5 million requested by Tarshop S.A. on November 9, 2000. The trust assets include receivables in favor of Tarshop S.A. for coupons issued for amounts charged to certain users of the Shopping card (Tarjeta Shopping) issued by Tarshop S.A.. Buenos Aires Trade & Finance Center S.A. On October 18, 1999, the Company set up a first mortgage in favor of Corporacion Antiguo Puerto Madero Sociedad Anonima as collateral for the balance of the price of U$S 6,428,943,90 (principal and interest) for the acquisition of the Plot of Land 1 of Block 5 M of Dock 3 of Puerto Madero, in the City of Buenos Aires, which will fall due on December 9, 2002. The debt balance amounts to $5,823 thousand (principal, VAT and interest), and has been disclosed net of VAT and interest not yet accrued for $ 125 thousand under Mortgages payable. At the financial closing date the full amount of the debt was settled (principal, VAT and interest), and at the date of issue of these financial statements the registration of the cancellation of the mortgage is in process NOTE 15: TARSHOP CREDIT CARD RECEIVABLE SECURITIZACION Alto Palermo S.A. has ongoing revolving period securitization programs through which Tarshop, a majority-owned subsidiary of APSA, transfers a portion of its customer credit card receivable balances to a master trust (the "Trust") that issues certificates to public and private investors. To the extent the certificates are sold to third parties, the receivables transferred qualify as sales for financial statement purposes and are removed from the APSA balance sheet. The remaining receivables in the Trust which have not been sold to third parties are reflected on the APSA balance sheet as a retained interest in transferred credit card receivables. Under these programs, APSA acts as the servicer on the accounts and receives a fee for its services. 27 IRSA INVERSIONES Y REPRESENTACIONES SOCIEDAD ANONIMA AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTD.) NOTE 15: (Continued) Under the securitization programs, the Trust may issue two types of certificates representing undivided interests in the Trust - Titulos de Deuda Fiduciaria ("TDF") and Certificados de Participacion ("CP"), which represent debt, and equity certificates, respectively. Interest and principal services are paid periodically to the TDF holders throughout the life of the security. CPs are subordinated securities which entitle the CP holders to share pro rata in the cash flows of the securitized credit card receivables, after principal and interest on the TDFs and other fees and expenses have been paid. During the revolving period no payments are made to TDF and CP holders. Principal collections of the underlying financial assets are used by the Trust to acquire additional credit card receivables throughout the revolving period. Once the revolving period ends, a period of liquidation occurs during which: (i) no further assets are purchased and (ii) all cash collections are used to fulfill the TDF service requirements and (iii) the remaining proceeds are used to fulfill the CPs service requirements. Alto Palermo S.A. entered into two-year revolving-period securitization programs, through which Tarshop sold an aggregate amount of Ps. 83.1 million of its customer credit card receivable.

As a result of the Reorganization, the Companies are now wholly owned subsidiaries of ITNV.

The financial statements for the six-month periods ending 31 December 2002 and 2001 have not been audited. The Company's management considers that they include all the necessary adjustments to reasonably present the financial result for the periods referred to. The financial result for the period ended 31 December 2002 does not necessarily reflect the net income for the year. The present financial statements must be readen considerating the circumstances mentioned in Note 1 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements. b) Recognition of the effects of inflation The financial statements have been prepared in constant currency, reflecting the overall effects of inflation through August 31, 1995. As from that date, in accordance with professional accounting standards and the requirements of the control authorities, restatement of the financial statements was discontinued until December 31, 2001. As from January 1, 2002, in accordance with Resolution No. 3/2002 of the Professional Council in Economic Sciences of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires and Resolution No. 415 of the National Securities Commission, the effects of inflation are being recognized in the financial statements. To this end, the restatement method established by Technical Pronouncement No. 6 of the F.A.C.P.C.E. has been followed. As a consequence of the above, the Company's financial statements are presented in constant currency of December 31, 2002, having considered that the accounting measurements restated by the change in the purchasing power of the currency until August 31, 1995 and those arising between that date and December 31, 2001 are stated in currency of the latter date. The above restatement was made applying the coefficients prepared based on the domestic wholesale price index. For purposes of comparison, the figures corresponding to the six-month period ended December 31, 2001 have been restated as of December 31, 2002. 42 IRSA INVERSIONES Y REPRESENTACIONES SOCIEDAD ANONIMA NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTD.) NOTE 1: (Continued) c) Issuance of new technical pronouncements The Professional Council in Economic Sciences of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires approved Technical Pronouncements No. 16 "Conceptual framework for professional accounting standards" ; No. 17: "Professional accounting standards: development of some general application issues", No. 18 : "Professional accounting standards: development of some particular application issues" and No. 19 "Amendments to Technical Pronouncements Nos. 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11 and 14" and 20: "Derivatives and hedging transactions", through Resolutions C 238/01, C 243/01, C 261/01, C 262/01 and C 187/02, respectively; establishing that those Technical Pronouncements and amendments to them will come into force for fiscal years commencing as from July 1, 2002, (except for Technical Pronouncements No. 20, whose effective date tallies with the financial years commencing 1 January 2003). The National Securities Commission, through Resolution 434/02, has adopted the Technical Resolutions referred to with certain exceptions and modifications, which shall apply to the financial years commencing on 1 January 2003. Consequently, the Company has prepared these financial statements in accordance with Resolutions 368/01, 372/01 and 398/02, as detailed in Note 1.a); such Resolutions do not envisage these changes and differ with the provisions contained in the accounting standards currently in force. The main amendments to the new Technical Pronouncements, which would mean significant adjustments being made to the Company's financial statements, are related to the recognition of income tax according to the deferred tax method and of the interest rate swap contract at the subsidiary Alto Palermo S.A. NOTE 2: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The following is a summary of the principal accounting policies followed by the Company in the preparation of the financial statements, Which have been applied consistently with regard to the same period of the previous year. a.

Equity investments in less than 20% of the capital stock in companies in which the Company does not exercise significant influence are generally carried at market value, recognizing realized gains and losses in earnings, and if these do not exist, at their acquisition cost. The value paid for the purchase of shares in controlled and affiliated companies over or under their equity value at the date of acquisition was recognized as positive or negative goodwill, which is amortized over ten periods. The Company presents consolidated financial statements with its subsidiaries. a.2.2.

Investments in debt securities The investment in APSA's Convertible Bonds has been valued at cost, applying the exchange rate in force at period end, plus accrued interest. 44 IRSA INVERSIONES Y REPRESENTACIONES SOCIEDAD ANONIMA NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTD.) NOTE 2: (Continued) a. Investments (Continued) a.3. Undeveloped parcels of lands The Company acquires undeveloped land in order to provide an adequate and well-located supply for its residential and office building operations. The Company's strategy for land acquisition and development is dictated by specific market conditions where the Company conducts its operations. Land held for development and sale and improvements are stated at cost adjusted for inflation at the end of the period, as defined in Note 1.b), or estimated net realizable value, whichever is lower. Land and land improvements are transferred to inventories when construction commences. At the end of the previous fiscal year, as mentioned in Note 2.m., the Company set up provisions for impairment of certain plots (identified as Santa Maria del Plata and Torres Jardin IV). The accounting value of plots of land, net of provisions set up, does not exceed estimated recoverable value. b. Inventory A property is classified as available for sale upon determination by the Board of Directors that the property is to be marketed for sale in the normal course of business over the next several periods. Residential, office and other non-retail properties completed or under construction are stated at cost, adjusted for inflation at the end of the period, as defined in Note 1.b), or estimated net realizable value, whichever is lower. Costs include land and land improvements, direct construction costs, construction overhead costs, interest on indebtedness and real estate taxes. Selling and advertising costs are deferred and charged to expense in the period in which the related revenue is earned, as determined under the percentage-of-completion method. Total contract costs are charged to expense in the period in which the related revenue is earned, as determined under the percentage-of-completion method. No interest costs were capitalized during the period ended December 31, 2002 and 2001. Properties held for sale are classified as current or non-current based on the estimated date of sale and the time at which the related receivable is expected to be collected by the Company. 45 IRSA INVERSIONES Y REPRESENTACIONES SOCIEDAD ANONIMA NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTD.) NOTE 2: (Continued) b. Inventory (Continued) At the end of the previous fiscal year, as mentioned in Note 2.m, the Company set up provisions for impairment of certain inventories (identified as Avda. Madero 1020, Rivadavia 2768, Constitucion 1111, Terrenos de Caballito, Padilla 902 and parking lots in Dock 13).

Fixed assets value, net of provisions set up, does not exceed estimated recoverable value. o Rental properties Rental properties are carried at cost, adjusted for inflation at the end of the period, as defined in Note 1.b), less accumulated depreciation. Costs incurred for the acquisition of the properties are capitalized. Accumulated depreciation is computed under the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which generally are estimated to be 50 periods for buildings. Expenditures for ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to operations in the period incurred. Significant renovations and improvements, which improve or extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized and depreciated over its estimated remaining useful life. At the time depreciable assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and the accumulated depreciation of the assets are eliminated from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss is disclosed in the statement of results. The Company capitalizes interest on long-term construction projects. No interest costs were capitalized during the period ended December 31, 2002 and 2001. At the end of the previous fiscal year, as mentioned in Note 2.m, the Company set up provisions for impairment of certain rental properties (identified as Libertador 498, Maipu 1300, Avda.

Fixed assets (Continued) o Software obtained or developed for internal use The Company capitalizes certain costs associated with the development of computer software for internal use. Costs capitalized during the period ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 were not material. These costs are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of 3 periods. o Other properties and equipment Other property and equipment properties are carried at cost, adjusted for inflation at the end of the period, as defined in Note 1.b), less accumulated depreciation.

Intangible assets Intangible assets are carried at cost, adjusted for inflation at the end of the period as defined in Note 1.b), less accumulated depreciation. o Deferred Financing Cost Expenses incurred in connection with the issuance of debt and proceeds of loans have been deferred and are being amortized using the interest method over the life of the related issuances. In the case of repurchase of this notes, the related expenses are amortized using the proportional method. o Selling and advertising expenses Expenses incurred relating to the marketing of developing properties, including advertising, commissions and other expenses, are charged to expense in the period in which the related revenue is earned, as determined under the percentage-of-completion method. 47 IRSA INVERSIONES Y REPRESENTACIONES SOCIEDAD ANONIMA NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTD.) NOTE 2: (Continued) e. Foreign currency assets and liabilities Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate prevailing at period end. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into pesos at the prevailing exchange rates on the date of transaction settlement. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are recorded within Financial Results, net. Pursuant to Decree No. 214/02, assets and debts in U.S. dollars or other foreign currencies in the Argentine financial system as of January 6, 2002, were converted to pesos at the rate of exchange of Ps. 1 per US$ 1 and were adjusted by a reference stabilization index (CER). f. Monetary assets and liabilities Monetary assets and liabilities are stated at their face value plus or minus the related financial gain or loss. g. Income tax The Company has determined its income tax charge at the 35% rate in force in all periods presented. The taxable results for the period ended December 31, 2002, determined according to the to Argentine income tax law, showed a taxable income of approximately Ps. 48.4 million. As of December 31, 2002, the Company had accumulated tax loss carryforwards of approximately Ps. 323 million, which expire in the year 2007. 48 IRSA INVERSIONES Y REPRESENTACIONES SOCIEDAD ANONIMA NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTD.) NOTE 2: (Continued) h. Asset tax During the period ended June 30, 1999, Law 25,063 set out the asset tax for four fiscal periods. This tax supplements the income tax, because while the latter is levied on the taxable income for the period, the asset tax is levied on the potential yield of certain assets at a 1% rate, and the Company's tax liability is the higher of both taxes. Law 25,360 modified Law 25,063 by extending the term of application to ten fiscal periods. Any excess of the asset tax over and above the income tax in a given fiscal period may be considered as a payment on account of the income tax to be generated in the next ten periods (in excess of the asset tax). As of December 31, 2002 the Company has estimated the applicable asset tax and has reflected the portion it estimates it will be able to offset in future periods in line with the rules in force under other (current and non-current) receivables, charging the remaining portion to income currently. i. Customer advances Customer advances represent payments received in advance in connection with the sale and rent of properties. j. Provisions for allowances and contingencies The Company provides for losses relating to mortgage, lease and other accounts receivable. The allowance for losses is recognized when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the terms of the agreements. The allowance is determined on a one-by-one basis considering the present value of expected future cash flow. While management uses the information available to make evaluations, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if future economic conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the evaluations. Management has considered all events and/or transactions that are subject to reasonable and normal methods of estimations, and the consolidated financial statements reflect that consideration. 49 IRSA INVERSIONES Y REPRESENTACIONES SOCIEDAD ANONIMA NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTD.) NOTE 2: (Continued) j. Provisions for allowances and contingencies (Continued) The Company has certain contingent liabilities with respect to existing or potential claims, lawsuits and other proceedings, including those involving labor and other matters. The Company accrues liabilities when it is probable that future costs will be incurred and such costs can be reasonably estimated. Such accruals are based on developments to date, the Company's estimates of the outcomes of these matters and the Company's lawyers' experience in contesting, litigating and settling other matters. As the scope of the liabilities becomes better defined, there may be changes in the estimates of future costs, which could have a material effect on the Company's future results of operations and financial condition or liquidity. k. Advertising expenses The Company generally charges the advertising and publicity expenses to results when they are incurred, except for the advertising and publicity expenses related to the sale of real estate projects. Advertising and promotion expenses were approximately Ps. 128 and Ps. 698 thousand for the period ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. l. Pension information The Company does not maintain any pension plans. Argentine laws provide for pension benefits to be paid to retired employees from government pension plans and/or privately managed funds plan to which employees may elect to contribute. m. Impairment of long-lived assets The Company regularly evaluates its non-current assets for recoverability. The Company considers that impairment losses arise when the recoverable value is lower than book value. Impairment losses must be appropriated to the result for the period. The recoverable value is mainly determined using independent estimates or projections of future cash flows. At the end of the previous fiscal year, due to the progressive deterioration of the Argentine economy and the impact on the Company's revenue of the measures adopted by the National Government mentioned in Note 1 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements, the Company has reevaluated the recoverable value of its non-current assets, recording an impairment loss as the valuation of certain assets has exceeded the estimated recoverable value. n. Financial derivatives The Company uses various financial derivatives to hedge its net investment in foreign operations and as a complement to reduce its global financial costs. 50 IRSA INVERSIONES Y REPRESENTACIONES SOCIEDAD ANONIMA NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTD.) NOTE 2: (Continued) n. Financial derivatives (Continued) The Company does not engage in trading or other speculative use of these financial instruments. Additionally, the Company has not used financial instruments to hedge transactions foreseen or firm commitments. To be eligible for hedging, the Company must be exposed to currency or interest rate risk, and the financial instrument must reduce the exposure and be designated as such. In addition, for hedging purposes, the significant characteristics and expected terms of the planned transaction must be identified and the expected transaction must be probable. Financial instruments that can be recorded as hedging instruments must maintain a high correlation between the hedging instrument and the item being hedged at the beginning and during the entire hedging period. The Company formally documents all the relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objective and strategy before embarking on hedging transactions. This process includes detailing all the derivatives designated for hedging of specific assets and liabilities in the balance sheet or specific firm commitments or planned transactions. The Company also evaluates both at the beginning of the hedging transaction and on an ongoing basis whether the derivatives used in hedging transactions are very effective to offset fluctuations in the market values or cash flows of the items hedged. If it is determined that a derivative is not very effective for hedging or that it has stopped being an effective cover, the Company would discontinue the recording of such hedging instrument in the future. - Foreign currency forward-exchange contracts In accordance with the Company's risk management policies, it uses long-term foreign currency purchase and sale contracts as a supplement to reduce its overall financial costs as well as to administer its exposure regarding net investments in financial transactions. Foreign currency forward-exchange contracts entered into by the Company generally mature within one period. Premiums on foreign currency forward-exchange contracts are amortized over the life of the respective contracts. - Interest rate swaps Interest rate swaps are used to hedge interest rate exposure. Interest rate swaps are recognized on an accrual basis, recording the net amount receivable or payable as an adjustment to the interest rate expense. The accrued amount receivable or payable is included as an adjustment to the interest expense. Upon expiry or termination of a swap, the net income or loss realized or pending realization is recognized over the remaining original term if the hedged item remains unpaid, or immediately if the underlying hedged item is not unpaid. If the swap has not expired, or if it expires before maturity, but the underlying hedged item is no longer unpaid, the unrealized income or loss on the interest swap is immediately recognized. 51 IRSA INVERSIONES Y REPRESENTACIONES SOCIEDAD ANONIMA NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTD.) NOTE 2: (Continued) o. Shareholders' equity Opening balances and account movements are stated in the currency of the month to which they correspond, restated as mentioned in Note 1.b). p. Results for the period The results for the period are shown as follows: - Income accounts are shown in currency of the month to which they correspond, and have been restated as mentioned in Note 1.b). - Charges for assets consumed (fixed asset depreciation, intangible asset amortization and cost of sales) were determined based on the values recorded for such assets. - Financial gains and losses are included in Note 8, broken down to show those generated by assets and by liabilities. - Income - (loss) from investments in controlled and affiliated companies was calculated under the equity method, by applying the percentage of the Company's equity interest to the income - (loss) of such companies. q. Estimations The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the period. Estimates are used when accounting for the depreciation, amortization, impairment of long-lived assets, income taxes and contingencies. Future actual results could differ from the estimates and assumptions prepared at the date of these financial statements. r. Revenue recognition r.1. Sales of properties The Company records revenue from the sale of properties classified as inventory when all of the following criteria are met: o the sale has been consummated; o there is sufficient evidence to demonstrate the buyer's ability and commitment to pay for the property; o the Company's receivable is not subject to future subordination; and o the Company has transferred the property to the buyer. 52 IRSA INVERSIONES Y REPRESENTACIONES SOCIEDAD ANONIMA NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTD.) NOTE 2: (Continued) r. Revenue recognition (Continued) r.1. Sales of properties (Continued) The Company uses the percentage-of-completion method of accounting with respect to sales of development properties under construction effected under fixed-price contracts. Under this method, revenue is recognized based on the ratio of costs incurred to total estimated costs applied to the total contract price. The Company does not commence revenue and cost recognition until such time as the decision to proceed with the project is made and construction activities have begun. The percentage-of-completion method of accounting requires the Company's management to prepare budgeted costs in connection with sales of properties/units. All changes to estimated costs of completion are incorporated into revised estimates during the contract period. r.2. Leases Revenues from leases are recognized over the life of the related lease contracts. All revenues are presented net of taxes levied on sales. s. Cash and cash equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, consisting primarily of time deposits, to be cash equivalents. t. Result from operations and holding of real estate The results from operations and holding of real estate assets include the results provided by the valuation and sale of shares in real estate investment companies. 53 IRSA INVERSIONES Y REPRESENTACIONES SOCIEDAD ANONIMA NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTD.)

Noncontributory Management Stock Ownership Plan On October 30, 1997, the shareholders authorized the Company to enter into a Noncontributory Management Stock Ownership Plan ("NMSOP") with eight executive officers of the Company (the "Beneficiaries"), pursuant to which the Beneficiaries were granted the right to purchase up to 24 million shares of common stock (the "Participation Shares"), at a purchase price equal to Ps. 1.0 per share, subject to the implementation of an Equity Participation Agreement ("EPA"). Under Argentine law, the Company established a special purpose trust in this connection (the "Trust"). The Beneficiaries were required to purchase the Participation Shares available, if any, within 24 months of any capital increase. The Trust has an original term of six periods. According to the terms of the NMSOP and the Trust, Beneficiaries are not entitled to receive any distributions (either in the form of shares, cash or other) from the Trust during its term, although, Beneficiaries are allowed to cause the Trust to sell their designated shares of common stock held by the Trust in certain cases. In addition, the Company was not allowed to grant any loans or otherwise assist the Beneficiaries in financing the purchase of the Participation Shares. On April 7, 1998, the Company's shareholders, at an extraordinary shareholders' meeting, approved a capital increase of 24 million shares to permit the Beneficiaries to purchase all of the Participation Shares to which they were entitled under the EPA. The BASE and the CNV approved the capital increase on June 4, 1999, and on August 31, 1999 the Beneficiaries acquired 21,090,024 shares at Ps. 1.0 per share. According to the terms of the Trust Fund, 7,718,701 shares were sold during the month of October, 2002. As a result of this transaction, at 31 December 2002, only 111,575 shares remained with the Recipients.

Insured amounts correspond to units belonging to the company that are being sold, and/or units sold under mortgages not having individual policies with assigned rights. Notes: (1) Insured amounts correspond to the total for the building. The amount insured for each co-owner is obtained by applying the percentage of co-ownership to the total insurance. (2) Insured amounts correspond solely to jointly held areas. (3) Insurance purchased by tenants with provisions for the assignment of rights. (4) Insured amounts correspond to units not yet having a bill of sale. (5) Insured amounts correspond to common areas and partially to individual areas. In our opinion, the above-described policies adequately cover current risks. 14. Not applicable. 15. See comments in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. 16. Not applicable. 17. None. 18.

OFFICES AND OTHER RENTAL PROPERTIES During the six-month period ended December 31, 2002, revenues from the Company's rental portfolio reached Ps.9.6 million, as compared to Ps.26.8 million in the same period for fiscal year 2002.

SHOPPING CENTERS - ALTO PALERMO S.A ("APSA") As of December 31, 2002, our share in APSA, the leading shopping center company in Argentina, was of 49,9%. Notwithstanding, by the end of the second quarter of fiscal year 2003, we acquired 3.4 million additional shares of APSA, increasing our ownership to 54.9%. As of December 31, 2002, total revenues were Ps.53.2 million, i.e., 56.4% less than for the same period of the previous year. The net profit for the six-month period was Ps.52.8 million, in contrast to the Ps.47.7 million loss for the same period of the previous year. The macroeconomic context has been favorable for APSA during this quarter. The index measuring consumers' confidence reverted the negative trend shown since early 2001 to reach a 29.6% increase during the last quarter of 2002. On the other hand, retail inflation, which, during the first nine months of the year had seriously undermined consumers with a 39.7% increase during the last three months of 2002, showed a significant deceleration, reaching an additional increase of only 0.9%. Another variable which positively affected our business was the increase of tourism in Argentina. By means of strategic marketing actions, the Company was able to channel to its Shopping Centers the increased flow of tourists, a kind of public with higher purchasing power and higher average consumption. In this way, our lessees' sales were significantly fostered during the three months ended December 31, 2002, causing them to reach their highest historic performance in nominal terms by totaling Ps.271.5 million, equivalent to 51.9% more than the invoicing during the quarter ended December 31, 2001 and 13.9% higher than the invoicing during the quarter ended December 31, 2001. In view of our lessees' revenues recovery, during this quarter we continue to apply the Referential Stabilization Coefficient ("CER") upon "pesified" agreements and reinstated the key money charge upon execution or renewal of lease agreements in our shopping centers. APSA's shopping centers received approximately 65.4 million visits during the last twelve months. At December 31, 2002, the average level of occupation of APSA shopping centers (including Mendoza Plaza) was approximately 94.1%. TARJETA SHOPPING During this quarter, Tarshop S.A., the credit card company in which the Company holds an 80% interest, had a 26.4% decrease in its credit card portfolio (including securitized receivables), from Ps. 71.6 million as of December 31, 2001 to Ps. 52.8 million as of December 31, 2002. In addition, the number of card holders decreased by 1,753 during this period, amounting to 148,619. Although Tarjeta Shopping revenues, which were affected by the Argentine financial crisis, experienced a 57.2% drop during the six month period from Ps. 27.8 million as of December 31, 2001 to Ps. 11.9 million as of December 31, 2002, Tarshop collection evidenced a 22.7% improvement in the bad debt allowance, from Ps. 7.5 million to Ps. 5.8 million, respectively. In addition, an improvement of the situation was evidenced in this respect during the last three months of 2002 as compared to the immediately preceding quarter, as the charge decreased by 64.2%. Tarjeta Shopping's share in credit card sales at Alto Palermo, Alto Avellaneda and Abasto de Buenos Aires as of December 31, 2002 was 4.8%, 29.4% and 16.3%, respectively. The credit cards activation rate is approximately 59%. The chart below presents information on the Company's shopping centers as of December 31, 2002.

SALES AND DEVELOPMENTS Revenues from this segment were of Ps.21.5 million during the six-month period ended December 31, 2002, as compared to Ps.23.3 million recorded during the same period of fiscal year 2002. This decrease mainly results from the Company's reduced stock of units available for sale, because of the interruption in the launching of new projects. ABRIL, HUDSON, PROVINCE OF BUENOS AIRES.

HOTELS Despite the low income that has been historically generated by this business segment, the devaluation of the Peso has brought about an increase in the inflow of tourists in Argentina, turning this segment into a more profitable alternative. This shift has been more intensely sensed as from the beginning of fiscal year 2003, with a significant increase in the occupancy rate of all of our hotels. The Llao Llao Hotel has undergone a successful winter season and during summer time the same trend is being observed. Tourists from all over the world visit our country so as to get to know this famous hotel and the surrounding landscape. In order to satisfy all of our guests needs we have built an outdoors swimming pool of gigantic dimensions that has got a heating system, enabling its use during winter as well. Total revenues from the hotel segment amounted to Ps.16.9 million over the six-month period ended December 31, 2002, against Ps.21.4 million recorded over the same period in fiscal year 2002. Because of the implementation of the new RT4 consolidation method, as from June 2002, revenues from Llao Llao hotel are no longer consolidated. The chart below shows information regarding our Company's hotels estimated for the six-month period ended December 31, 2002. HOTELS HOTEL DATE OF NUMBER OF ROOMS AVERAGE AVG.

FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS AND OTHERS IMPACT OF EXCHANGE RATE FLUCTUATIONS ON THE COMPANY'S FINANCIAL POSITION - Our dollar-denominated liabilities have been positively affected by the 11% Peso appreciation during the six-month period ended December 31, 2002, generating a positive result for our Company of Ps.157.7 million. The exposure of our assets to this same macroeconomic indicator during the same period in fiscal year 2002 generated a loss of Ps.22.3 million. The net result generated by the appreciation of the Peso was of Ps. 135.4 million and is registered under "Financial Results". It considerably explains the gain for this period. RESTRUCTURING OF OUTSTANDING DEBT - On November 15, 2002, we signed a Refinancing Framework Agreement and on November 21, 2002, the operation was concreted with our six bank creditors (Banca Nazionale del Lavoro, BankBoston, Banco Ciudad, HSBC, Banco Itau and Banco Nacion) to refinance the Syndicated US$ 80 million Loan and the outstanding US$ 37.0 million Floating Rate Notes under the following scheme: I. US$ 13.6 million cash down payment reducing the principal; II. US$ 15.0 million of the 8% Convertible Notes due 2007 subscribed by BankBoston swapping old debt; III. US$ 37.4 million Secured Floating Rate Notes due 2009 with an interest rate of 90-day LIBOR plus 200 basic points. These Notes are secured with a first priority mortgage on some of our real estate properties for a 50% value of the debt; and IV. US$ 51.0 million Unsecured Credit Facility due 2009. 69% of the Facility bears an interest rate of 90-day LIBOR plus 200 basic points while the remaining bears a fixed step up rate ranging from 5.5% to 6.5%. ISSUE OF BONDS CONVERTIBLE INTO ORDINARY SHARES OF OUR COMPANY - The Company's successful offering of up to US$ 100 million Convertible Notes ended on November 21, 2002. Convertible notes are accompanied by non-detachable warrants that enable the purchase of additional shares of our common stock. These notes bear an 8% interest per year and mature in November 2007. The conversion price is of US$ 0.5450 per share, meaning that every convertible note can be exchanged for 1.8349 common shares. The proceeds of the convertible notes' offering have been mostly used to cancel and restructure our liabilities outstanding at the moment, remaining US$ 55 million cash position for working capital. GOLDMAN SACHS DEBT CANCELLATION - On December 4, 2002 we have cancelled our debt with GSEM/AP Holdings, LP (Goldman Sachs), consisting in US$ 16.3 million of principal plus accrued interest as of today, for a total of US$ 11.1 million. DISTRIBUTION OF TREASURY SHARES - As of December 19, 2002, 4,587,285 treasury shares of our Company have been distributed among the shareholders, proportionally to their shareholdings. This distribution represents a 2.21% of the outstanding capital stock. ADJUSTMENT OF CONVERSION PRICE OF CONVERTIBLE NOTES DUE 2007 - As a result of the distribution of 4,587,285 treasury shares, the Company has adjusted the conversion price of the notes according to what has been stipulated in the issuance clauses. Due to such adjustment the conversion price of the notes goes from US$ 0.5571 to US$ 0.5450 and the exercise price for the warrants goes from US$ 0.6686 to US$ 0.6541. This adjustment is in force as from December 20, 2002. PURCHASE OF APSA'S SHARES AND CONVERTIBLE NOTES - During January 2003, we have acquired 3.4 million additional shares of APSA, thus our ownership in the company adds up to 54.9%. Moreover, we have acquired 2.6 million of APSA's Convertible Notes that together with the 27,324,848 convertible notes subscribed at the moment of the issuance, amount to 59.9% of the convertible notes issued by our subsidiary. IMPROVEMENT IN THE GRADING OF OUR CONVERTIBLE NOTES' GLOBAL PROGRAM FOR UP TO US$ 250 MILLION - On January 28, 2002, Fitch, a grading agency, raised the grade of our Convertible Notes' Global Program for up to US$ 250 million, from C (arg) to B- (arg). The raise in the grade is due to the restructuring of our debt by which we have extended all maturities on a long-term basis. Our Secured Debt for US$ 37.4 million has been issued under this program. VII. BRIEF COMMENTS ON PROSPECTS FOR THE ONCOMING QUARTER We believe that the worst has been overcome and, as evidenced by history, deep crisis bring about opportunities and growth. Our Company was able to face the adverse conditions arisen during the Argentine crisis and was one of the very few companies which avoided a default. The successful subscription of our Convertible Bonds has evidenced the confidence place upon us both by the domestic and the international markets. Banks have also contributed to refinance our debt with longer terms and lower interest rates. The proceeds from the Convertible Bonds have placed us in a privileged cash position, which will enable us to take advantage of the opportunities appearing in the market, especially at a time when property prices have significantly dropped. As regards Argentina, although the refinancing of debt maturities with the IMF enables to reduce the economic uncertainty, the political-electoral map continues to be complex, it being the main obstacle to prepare macroeconomic forecasts. Luiz Inacio da Silva's administration in Brazil showed a good start, which is reflected by the improvement of the main financial indicators, but some risks still continue to exist. We are optimistic as to the future. Our cautious performance has caused us to attain an outstanding position in the market and its confidence will enable us to keep on growing. The time of adjustment is coming to an end and as soon as the conditions exist we will put into practice the projects postponed by the recession.

We have reviewed the balance sheets of IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones Sociedad Anonima at December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related statements of income, of changes in shareholders' equity and of cash flows for the six-month periods then ended, and the complementary notes 1 to 13 and exhibits A to I. In addition, we have reviewed the consolidated financial statements of IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones Sociedad Anonima and subsidiaries for the six-month periods the ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. 2. We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by Technical Resolution No. 7 of the Argentine Federation of Professional Councils of Economic Sciences for limited reviews of financial statements. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. 3. The Company has prepared the financial statements following the valuation criteria established by the Comision Nacional de Valores, which as explained in Note 1 c) differ from certain aspect of prevailing accounting standards in Argentina. The effect on the financial statements arising from the different valuation criteria have not been quantified by the Company and we have not been able, through the performance of other auditing procedures, to estimate the impact on the financial statements of this divergence from professional accounting standards in Argentina. 4. As detailed in note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, as result of the economic crisis in Argentina, the period under consideration was affected by the measures adopted by the National Government. The future evolution of the crisis may require that the Government modify some of the measures adopted or issue additional regulations. Consequently, the Company's financial statements must be read in the light of these circumstances. 5. Our report dated September 9, 2002 on the financial statements at June 30, 2002 and 2001 included a qualification referred to the uncertainty as to whether the Company would be in a position to continue to operate as going concern. As mentioned in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the restructuring of the Company's debt was satisfactorily completed in November 2002. Consequently, our report on the financial statements at December 31, 2002 does not longer contain the mentioned observation. PRICE WATERHOUSE & CO. ABELOVICH, POLANO & ASOCIADOS Av. A.
