Please address the following with respect to your response to our prior comment 1: Please tell us why the most significant fair value increases have related to your shopping mall properties. In your response, tell us what portion of the increases in fair value for all periods presented is due to a change in the peso/USD exchange rate versus other factors (i.e. changes in discount rates). Matias I. Gaivironsky Cresud Inc. July 23, 2018 Page 2 In your MD&A you indicate that changes in the peso/USD exchange rates were a significant cause for the changes in fair value of your investment properties. As such, please clarify why your office and other properties did not experience a rate of increase in value similar to the increase experienced in your shopping mall properties. Please address the impact that translation of your projected cash flows to US dollars and then back, for purposes of the discounted cash flows analysis, has on your valuation. Please tell us what US dollar-denominated long-term interest rate is utilized in your calculation, and please provide an analysis of the year-over-year differences in this discount rate, the reasons for these changes, and the impact on your calculation. Finally, please expand your disclosure in future filings to more fully describe your valuation methodology, including: o Your policy of translating peso denominated cash flow estimates into USD for purposes of performing your discounted cash flow analysis and the rationale for this policy. o An indication of which assumptions are applied to peso denominated cash flow estimates and which assumptions are applied to USD denominated cash flow estimates.
