The President reported as follows: Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to SM Prime s 2017 Annual Stockholders Meeting. 2016 marked SM Prime s third year as a fully integrated property developer and we continue to realize the benefits of this integration. Today, we will share with you the highlights of your company during the past year. Our performance in the past years shows that we are on track to deliver our five-year goals and enjoying the benefits of our transformation into a largescale, integrated property developer. In 2016, we reported recurring net income at PHP24 billion, an increase of 14% from last year on the back of consolidated revenue growth of 12% to PHP80 billion. Overall positive performance of the Company can be attributed to the continued expansion of the malls business and strong sales take-up of our residential units. More than 60% of consolidated revenues comes from the Malls, Residences accounts to 32%, while the rest contributed by our other business units. Mall s overall revenue increased by 9% to almost PHP49 billion driven by the 7% same-mall-sales and new malls and expansions we added in the past two years. This allowed your Company to register an operating income of PHP26 billion, an increase of 9% from 2015. We capped 2016 with 67 shopping malls 60 in the Philippines and seven in China with a total floor area of 9 million square meters. In the Philippines, 45% of our malls are located in Metro Manila, 35% in Luzon outside Metro Manila, 14% in Visayas and 6% in Mindanao, allowing your Company to maintain its leadership in the shopping center industry. Our residential business delivered a strong financial performance with a 13% revenue growth to PHP25.4 billion this year from PHP22.5 billion last year. Operating income likewise improved by 17% to PHP7 billion from PHP6 billion in 2015.

SM Development Corporation s reservation sales grew by 21% in terms of sales value to PHP48 billion in 2016 from PHP39 billion last year due to strong sales take-up generated from the residential projects mostly located in Mall of Asia Complex area. This resulted to a 17% improvement on unit sales to Meanwhile, the rest of the business portfolio recorded a 32% increase in revenues to PHP6 billion from almost PHP5 billion in 2015. This brought operating income growth to 44% to PHP3 billion from PHP2 billion last year. Other business accounted for 7% of consolidated revenues and 8% of consolidated operating income. For 2017, SM Prime will be opening five new malls. This includes SM Cherry Antipolo, SM CDO Downtown Premier, SM Center Tuguegarao, SM City Puerto Princesa and SM Center Lemery. By the end of the year, your Company will have 65 malls in the Philippines and seven in China with an estimated combined gross floor area of 9.2 million square meters. For the residential group, SM Prime is slated to launch 15,000 to 18,000 units that includes high-rise, mid-rise and single detached house and lot within Metro Manila and nearby provinces. We are committed to earmark at least PHP50 billion per annum over the next two years to achieve our development roadmap and income targets by 2018. We are confident that, with your support, we are on our way to achieving our goals. As a group, we continue to maintain a strong balance sheet and deliver strong recurring revenue which give us high confidence in our growth plans. In 2016, net debt to equity is equivalent to 37:63, within management s target of keeping a conservative net gearing. Allow me to convey my deepest appreciation to our Directors and dedicated employees for their service and hard work towards maximizing the value of SM Prime. Let me share our deepest gratitude to our shareholders, business partners and customers for their continued confidence and support. As SM Prime continues to bring its integrated development in more provincial cities in the country, let us join hands in shaping a better tomorrow to the communities we serve. After the President s presentation, the Chairman opened the floor to stockholders to provide them the opportunity to ask questions or give comments. One stockholder, Mr. Romy David, representing the shares of SharePhil, asked on the business risks the Company is currently facing. Mr. Chairman responded that online shopping is not a significant concern for the Corporation since SM Prime is not primarily engaged in online retail business. Mr. Lim added that information technology risk is another risk which is being mitigated through a regular conduct of vulnerability testing for better cyber and data security management. A foreign stockholder asked about the updates of mall operations in China. Mr. Lim provided that, for 2016, it contributed 5% to SM Prime s total revenue. Further, the stockholder inquired on why SM Investments Corporation (SMIC), and not SM Prime, acquired the condo/dormitory MyTown brand. Mr. Jose T. Sio of SMIC explained that this is a new

phenomenon in the real estate industry and if proven viable, SM Prime can undertake this route in the future. Another stockholder, Mr. Ishmael Sam Canua, inquired on the following: (1) plans of expanding within other ASEAN countries; (2) addition of BPO Tower and IMAX in SM Fairview; and (3) start of construction of MRT-LRT common station. In response: (1) the Chairman responded that this is being contemplated but would still require further study; (2) there is an ongoing mall expansion in SM Fairview which will include a provision for future BPO offices; and (3) Mr. Lim explained that all the parties involved have already signed and agreed on the location of the common station. The actual construction depends on the government agencies concerned. Mr. Jose L. Cuisia, Jr., Director and stockholder, commended Mr. Hans T. Sy for his leadership as former President and lauded Ms. Teresita Sy-Coson, MAP Man of the Year, for her guidance as Adviser to the Board. Mr. Cuisia expressed his appreciation and gratitude to Ms. Coson. There being no other comments nor questions from the stockholders, the 2016 Annual Report was presented for notation and approval.
