First quarter 2013 14 May 2013
SIIC PAREF, a property company specialised in property investment and management on behalf of third parties, announces quarterly revenue of € 5.7 million, compared to € 6.7 million in the first quarter of 2012.
The following changes have affected the consolidated property portfolio since 1 January:
Excluding the continued construction of the "Le Gaia" building located in Nanterre (€ 2.5 million during the first quarter of 2013 in relation to Paref's share), no acquisition or disposal was carried out during the period on the Group's property portfolio, whose value totalled € 163 million at 31 December 2012, based on appraised values at 31 December 2012, increased by capital expenditure on Le Gaïa, less the amortisation of temporary usufructs.
Total Group financial debt was € 81.6 million at 31 March 2013, compared to € 83.6 million at 31 December 2012. The € 2.0 million change was due to debt amortisation.
Including escrow accounts of € 3.1 million and cash and cash equivalents of € 8.4 million, the consolidated net financial debt was € 70.1 million.
The LTV ratio (net financial debt to property portfolio value), including the share of the Le Gaïa building owned by Wep Watford, an equity‐accounted company, was 40%, compared to 42% at the end of December.
1 Unaudited data
| Revenue (€ millions) | Q1 2013 | Q1 2012 | % change | FY 2012 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rent and cost recovered | 4.3 | 4.8 | (10.8%) | 18.1 |
| residential | 0.5 | 0.8 | (40.3%) | 2.5 |
| commercial | 3.9 | 4.1 | (5.0%) | 15.7 |
| Management fees | 1.4 | 1.8 | (25.3%) | 6.1 |
| Consolidated IFRS revenue | 5.7 | 6.7 | (14.8%) | 24.2 |
Rent and costs recovered during the first quarter of 2013 were € 4.3 million, compared to € 4.8 million in the first quarter of 2012, a decline of € 0.5 million, of which € 0.3 million was due to certain temporary usufructs maturing in 2012 (residential property) and € 0.2 million to rent from the Berger property that was sold at the end of the first quarter of 2012.
On a constant group structure basis (excluding 2012 sale and end of usufructs), rental income was stable.
The occupancy rate was 88% at the end of March, compared to 91% at the end of December.
The change in this rate was primarily due to the previously announced departure of the Saint Maurice tenant and to the termination of business activities of the Vaux‐Le Pénil building's tenant. The Evry commercial Court, in a ruling dated 14 January 2013, wound up the Atryos company, which rented the Vaux le Pénil building. A company has already approached Paref to lease the premises. Provisions have been established for all Atryos receivables.
Furthermore, the tenant of La Houssaye Tem IdF, which had signed a temporary lease in 2011, followed by a firm 6‐year lease in September 2012, has been placed in court‐ordered administration.
During the first quarter of 2013, management fees, including management fees on managed assets and subscription fees) totalled € 1.38 million compared to € 1.85 million for the same period of 2012, although it should be noted that on a comparable consolidation method (1), restated first quarter 2012 fees would have been € 2.0 million.
Out of this total, SCPI subscription fees were € 0.64 million compared to € 1.16 million in the first quarter of 2012 (or € 1.3 million after restatement). This was related to the decline in subscriptions compared to a favourable first quarter 2012 (exceptional subscriptions originating from institutional investors).
Management fees on managed assets represented € 0.74 million, compared to € 0.69 million in the first quarter of 2012, an increase of 8%. During the quarter, the favourable effect of the increase in managed assets and of assuming the management of SCPI Capiforce Pierre (which represents full‐year management fees of € 0.3 million) was nevertheless offset by various exceptional fees (fees on asset disposals) of € 0.1 million collected in the first quarter of 2012 in respect of Pierre 48 and the already announced transfer out of the OPCI Naos (which represented full‐year management fees of € 0.1 million).
Since 1 January 2013, Paref Gestion is SCPI Capiforce Pierre's management company, with managed assets of € 41.4 million.
(1) : Interpierre's subscription fees were previously eliminated on consolidation.
