Return (2)
Last year (1 year) -25.3% -62.6%
Last 3 years (annualised) -41.4% -38.5%
Last 5 years (annualised) -20.0% -16.4%

(1) Return on Equity = Total Comprehensive Income (IFRS) for the period / brought forward equity (IFRS) for start of the period, annualised. (2) Total Shareholder Return = Movement in share price, dividend adjusted, annualised using XIRR formula.

Calculated using historical share prices as adjusted by Oslo Stock Exchange post rights offering in June 2017.

These return rations are Alternative Performance Measures, and are presented in accordance with ESMA's "Guidelines on Alternative Performance Measures" from 2015. These are reliably measured and the company considers these relevant, because different stakeholders might consider different NAV per share in NOK and Total Shareholder Return relevant alternative performance measures.

Semi annual report

(all following numbers are in USD)

Summary

  • The company completed a rights offering for 28 million NOK in June. The net proceeds after costs was USD 3.2 million. This met the bank's minimum requirement of a payment of USD 3.0 million from shareholders. The bank loan now has no amortisations, and major covenants are waived, until Q4 2018.
  • As previously reported, the anchor tenant vacated the Gasfield building on 31 May 2017. The tenants accounted for approx. 80% of the lettable area.
  • At the date of this report the building is 30% let following reletting of 710 sq.m. The company is actively seeking new tenants for re-letting the vacant area.
  • Due to the rental situation and the current market situation, the future liquidity situation of the company is uncertain.

Income statement

  • The group had a total comprehensive income in Q2 of -5.0 million, compared with -2.3 million for Q2 2016. For the first six months, the total comprehensive income was -2.3 million compared with -4.9 million for the same period in 2016.
  • The carrying value of the investment property Gasfield was reduced by 5.4 million in Q2 2017, according to valuations by independent appraiser, Cushman & Wakefield. The valuer has applied a longer expected vacancy than in prior periods.
  • Revenues from the investment property in Russia were 0.8 million in Q2. This compares with 1.6 million for the same period last year. For the half year, the revenues were 2.6 million (2016: 3.0 million).
  • Borrowing costs were 0.5 million in the quarter (2016: 0.5 million), including interest rate swaps. For the half year, borrowing costs were 1.0 million (2016: 1.1 million).

Accounting for value change on investment property:

In accordance with international accounting standards (IFRS) the movement in value of investment property are split over two separate posts, explained by the following: Our Russian subsidiary which owns the building uses Russian roubles as functional currency. According to IFRS, only the part of the fair value adjustment which can be attributed to RUB is presented over the Income Statement. The effect of currency exchange movements between RUB and USD is presented as Other Comprehensive Income and is included in term Total Comprehensive Income. We see Total Comprehensive Income as the most relevant profit measure for the group. In every quarter we present an explanatory statement of the fair value adjustment:

Change in value, million USD 6M 2017 6M 2016
Over income statement -4.1 -0.2
Translation difference over
Other Comprehensive Income
+0.3 -1.0
Sum value adjustments properties -3.8 -1.2

Balance sheet

  • The investment property Gasfield is recorded at 27.4 million. The building's valuation in accordance with valuation obtained from an independent valuer is 27.2 million. In addition, values of contract derivatives and land leases are recognised with 0.2 million.
  • On the closing date, the group had a cash balance of 2.4 million. Gross proceeds from the rights offering were received after the closing date of 3.3 million, and the remaining amount of the agreed 3.0 million payable to the bank was 1.8 million. Adjusting for these transactions post the closing date the disposable cash balance was 3.9 million.
  • The group's equity ratio is 35.4% as at 30 June 2017.
  • The loan-to-value of the Gasfield bank loan is currently 66.7%, after repayment of the remaining 1.8 million of the proceeds to the bank on 15 July.
  • The Company's NAV per share in NOK is NOK 1.13 per 30 June 2017 (calculated using new number of shares).

The company's risk is considered very high. The situation in Russia is demanding. High vacancy in the market combined with the company's own vacancy situation could lead to a shortfall on future cash flow. Given the current 70% vacancy in the building, the group is currently loss-making. Future cash flow and ability to meet future liabilities within maturity dates is dependent on sourcing new tenants.

For further business risks than described above, please refer to the company's annual report for 2016.
