Management Report

Review and development of the groups business and financial position

The net turnover for the six months ended June 30, 2022, was EUR 17,180,247 compared with EUR 12,985,513 for the same period in 2021 representing a increase of 32% The net turnover is mainly composed of income from operating a real estate portfolio in Hungary and the Netherlands. The main reason of the increase in sales is the elimination of the impact of COVID-19 on Hungarian rental income.

The overall income for the six months amounts to EUR 17,190,423 which is impacted by the net sales and the financial revenue (30 June 2021: EUR 31,869,155).

The net result for the six months is a gain amounting to EUR 3,294,097 (30 June 2021: EUR 19,653,009).

During the period the group acquired 156,794 of its own shares at a cost of Euro 418,113

Principle risks and uncertainties

The Group's business, financial condition or results can be affected by risks and uncertainties. Management has identified the following risks that are relevant for the period to date and the remaining second half of the year:

  • Change in laws and regulations governing the operations of the Company and its subsidiaries which may affect their business, investments and results of operations.
  • Foreign currency risk
  • Credit risk
  • Interest rate risk
  • Liquidity risk
  • Country risk

Management monitors these risks and applies the following risk management procedures:

Foreign currency ("FX") risk

Financial instruments that potentially represent risk for the Group include deposits, debtors and credit balances denominated in foreign currency, creditors in foreign currency and deposits in foreign currency other than EUR. The Group's rental contracts are stipulated in EUR or on EUR basis thus mitigating FX risk associated with non-EUR based revenues. As of 30 June 2021 the Group does not have any open forward transactions.

Credit risk

The Group aims to mitigate lending risk by its careful and continuous debtor portfolio monitoring process and by requiring bank guarantees and collateral. In addition, the Group regularly follows up information about the main debtors in the market. Concentrations of credit risk, with respect to trade accounts receivable, are limited due to the large number of customers and due to the dispersion across geographical areas. Receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis.

Investments of surplus funds are made only with reliable counterparties and are allocated between more banks and financial institutions in order to mitigate financial loss through potential counterparty failure.

Interest rate risk

In order to mitigate the interest rate risk the Group uses mainly fixed rate loans. The loan interest is at fixed rate of 1.89 %.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is monitored as follows:

  • Monitoring daily available deposited and free cash by entity.
  • Monitoring weekly cash flows by entity.
  • As part of the management information system, the Group monitors the operations of each entity on a monthly basis.
  • The Group monitors its long-term cash flows in order to match the maturity patterns of its assets and liabilities.

Country risk

The Group has operations in Luxembourg, in the Netherlands and in Hungary. By the geographical diversification of the operations, the Group mitigates the effects of country risk. Notwithstanding the, as yet unknown, impact of the global coronavirus pandemic, the Group has not identified any significant risks that may affect the financial performance of Group members associated with the countries in which the Group operates. Further as members of the European Union and the legal structure associated with it, management believes that country risk is not a matter of significant concern.

1. Basis of presentation

These interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. They do not include all disclosures that would otherwise be required in a complete set of financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the 2021 annual report.

2. Significant accounting policies

The Group has applied the same accounting policies and methods of computation in its interim consolidated financial statements as in its 2021 annual financial statements.

New and amended standards and Interpretations issued by the IASB that will apply for the first time in the next annual financial statements are not expected to impact the Group as they are either not relevant to the Group's activities or require accounting which is consistent with the Group's current accounting policies.

Management have reviewed the nature and amount of estimates reported in prior period, and with the exception of a revision of the deferred tax liability arising from the application of updated tax rates in the Netherlands, concluded that there have been no material revisions required for amounts reported in prior periods.

Impact of accounting standards to be applied in future periods.

There are a number of standards and interpretations which have been issued by the International Accounting Standards Board that are effective for periods beginning subsequent to 31 December 2021 (the date on which the company's next annual financial statements will be prepared up to) that the Group has decided not to adopt early. The Group does not believe these standards and interpretations will have a material impact on the financial statements once adopted.

The groups' core activity is the provision of real estate to tenants through its investment property portfolio. These assets earn rent on a systematic basis throughout the year, with no contractual adjustments that effect the flow of income to the group. As a result, group revenues are unaffected by any seasonality. The costs of the running the business are also similarly unaffected. As a result, these financial statements require no further information to assist the user in understanding the seasonal effects on the business at the half year, nor for the remainder of the full year.
