Romanian Macro development

  • The Romanian economy continues to perform well. Romania's GDP increased 4.3% in 1Q and 3.2% in 2Q 2015 (compared to same period last year). The National Bank forecasts a GDP growth of 4% for 2015, a view that is shared by analysts of the most important banks in the market.
  • Private consumption was the main source of the advance on the back of growth in employment and wages. The macroeconomic environment is solid with low inflation and fiscal and external deficits.
  • Wages have continued to grow in 2015 after a 5.3% growth in 2014.
  • Inflation is expected to remain very low, averaging only 0.9% this year. This should ensure robust real income growth, particularly as unemployment will gradually fall through the year.
  • A reduction of the VAT in Romania from 24% to 20% has been agreed today by the government. The reduction is expected to take effect from the 01 January 2016.

Romania Real Estate Update

  • The real estate market continues to recover on all fronts.
  • Residential developers re-enter the market with adjusted projects previously put on hold, and developers try out projects with higher price tags.
  • Apartment prices continue to rise. In Constanta prices have already increased 6.1% compared to last year as of July 2015
  • During first half of 2015, building permits for houses and apartment buildings rose 3.3%.
  • Most residential projects catering to standard quality needs and the basic Prima Casa program.

The Alpha Bank loan

  • Secured loan with nominal value EUR 11,505,000 at end of Q2 2015. The loan matures November 27, 2015
  • The Company has a right to extend the loan for one plus one year, provided that the interest is paid upfront at extension. The Company has the required liquidity to extend the loan
  • During 2014 and 2015, the Company has reduced the principal amount with the net proceeds from the asset sales of EUR 893,000. As part of the extension in November 2015, the Company will ask for rights to extend the loan with another one year option

Main focus areas going forward

  • Cash Management The cash in hand and the financial bond investment is sufficient to extend the Alpha Bank loan in November 2015
  • The Company is actively seeking to divest more land from its portfolio
  • To make the plots sellable, the Company is seeking to add incremental value to the individual plots during the period in which they are part of the Land Bank up until a potential sale is completed. The various forms of adding value include upgrading of planning permission as well as maintenance of plot surfaces, buildings, fencing and similar
  • Management will also attempt to create income from the plots in its Land Bank by renting out to third parties for commercial use, structured in a way so it does not prevent or interfere with an eventual sale of the plots
  • The Company expects to sell more assets during 2015
