RomReal : First Quarter (Q1) 2014 Report and Investor Presentation.

RomReal hereby announces the First Quarter (Q1) 2014 highlights in relation to

the attached First Quarter 2014 report and investor presentation:

Statutory Net Asset Value (NAV)

Under IFRS was EUR 0.5 (NOK 4.33) per share at the end of Q1 2014, a decrease of

0.8% compared to the end of Q4 2013.

Valuation

The Company has not made any changes during Q1 2014 to the value of the

investment property compared to the independent valuation carried out by Knight

Frank Romania at end of Q4 2013.

Financial Results

Pre-tax loss in Q1 2014 of EUR 0.002 million. Total assets at end of Q1 2014

were EUR 33.76 million compared to EUR 33.85 million at end of Q4 2013. Net cash

outflow was EUR 145,000 during the quarter (1Q2014) compared to EUR 196,000

during the same quarter last year (1Q2013).

Plot division and sales

The Peninsula plot, part of the Company's land bank, has obtained its Urban

Certificate in order to be divided into smaller plots.

New Board members

Following the 2014 AGM two new Board members were appointed: Ms Lacramioara

Isarescu and Mr Arne Reinemo. A summary of the new Board member's CV can be

found on page 11 of this report. Mr Erik Sture Larre, a Board member since

2010, did not seek re-election to the Board.

Macro news

Foreign direct investments totalled EUR 570 million in the first quarter of the

year, up 30.1 percent compared to last year. Romania managed to attract EUR 290

million in March, the highest FDI total since the start of the year (EUR 36

million in February and EUR 240 million in January).

First quarter 2014 preliminary data confirms the strong trend at the end of

2013 with a Q1 2014 GDP growth of 3.8% compared to the same period of last year.

It is the second quarter in a row when Romania has had the largest annual

economic growth in the EU after in Q4 2013 Romania registered a 5.1 percent GDP

increase. Eurostat reports that EU had a 1.4 percent increase in Q1 2014 and the

Eurozone, a 0.9 percent growth.

In a very recent report, S&P believes Romania will maintain steady GDP growth,

averaging 3% over 2014-2017. While this is slower than before the 2009 financial

crisis, it is above any regional peer.

Real Estate news

According to a national real estate agent (imobiliare.ro) the average price per

m2 for new apartments appears to have stabilised both in Constanta and on a

nationwide basis during 2014.

RomReal invites investors, analysts and media to the conference call, to be held
