Ladies and Gentlemen,
Since the beginning of the third quarter 2016 we have been implementing the new strategy, with a series of major investment decisions I would like to outline.
In recent months, we have entered into a preliminary agreement with Invesco Real Estate to sell Q22 skyscraper in Warsaw; we have also agreed to sell seven office buildings in a number of Polish regional cities to Echo Polska Properties (EPP). In coming months, we expect to finalize deal with EPP to sell four buildings. Also, together with EPP, we have bought a retail & entertainment project Towarowa 22 in Warsaw which is going to be another flagship investment property, boasting a unique location and being a perfect match with our ambitions and expertise.
The second half of the year also saw new projects being launched. Construction works commenced at sites of Galeria Libero in Katowice, Sagittarius and West Link office buildings in Wrocław as well as five residential projects. However, it is the kick-off of Browary Warszawskie that we are especially proud of. This historically important and prestigious location will soon become another great place for work, living and entertainment, and the idea has been very well received by the market and Varsovians themselves.
However, not only big events confirm how successful the period the last nine months were for Echo Investment. In our operational activity, we have seen continuation of positive trends. From January to September 2016, apartments sale grew 46%, with 503 clients being attracted by our projects. The office leasing team signed contracts amounting to over 50,000 sqm., which more than doubles the results of the corresponding period of the last year. In retail, we could also see 50,000 sqm. of space being leased out, which is a stable result in comparison to the three quarters of 2015.
Looking forward, we are constantly present on the land market. At the moment, we negotiate purchasing a number of properties for residential, office and retail projects. Within 6 to 12 next months, we expect to acquire land plots for the construction with total GLA or usable space of about 500,000 sqm. We are also working on optimising our land bank, by launching construction work on the plots that meet our requirements and selling non-core properties.
Echo Investment carefully looks at its cost base. Here, thanks to current trends on the construction market, we are able to increase our competitiveness as compared to previous years. We are able to commission construction services at much better prices, while maintaining the same quality and standard level. At the same time, we remain committed to long-term cooperation with partners representing good financial and organisational standing and reliable brands.
I would like to present Echo Investment financial report for the third quarter of 2016.
Sincerely
Nicklas Lindberg CEO of Echo Investment

Echo Investment Group has been operating on the real estate market since 1996. The Group's parent company is Echo Investment S.A.
As at 30 September 2016, the Group employed 279 people, i.e. 79 fewer than as at 30 September 2015, when the Group had 358 employees. This significant drop in the number of employees is connected with the sale of companies providing property and facility management services to Echo Polska Properties on 1 July 2016.
Echo Investment S.A. shares have been listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange since 5 March 1996. Shares available for trading constitute 100% of all shares, i.e. 412,690,582 ordinary bearer shares, each giving one vote at the General Meeting of Shareholders.
In Q3 2016, the Management Board of Echo Investment with the approval of the Supervisory Board developed new strategic directions called "The strategy of profitable growth". According to it, Echo Investment will accelerate the capital turnover and therefore generate higher growth rates for its shareholders. The Company intends to share generated profit with its shareholders in the form of regular dividends.
The activity of Echo Investment will be based on the following pillars:
It is the strongest country and real estate market in the Central and Eastern Europe. Echo Investment, which has been operating on this market for two decades, knows perfectly its potential, actual background and principles of functioning. This is why the Company will focus on running projects in eight most important Polish cities, which are at the same time the most attractive and liquid real estate markets: Warsaw, Tricity, Szczecin, Poznań, Katowice, Wrocław, Cracow and Łódź.
Echo Investment is one of the biggest real estate development companies operating in Poland. The Company is active in three sectors: office, retail and residential. In accordance with the strategy of profitable growth, Echo Investment is going to be one of the leaders in each of the three sectors. This is going to translate into optimum use of resources and adequately large scale of activity.
Echo Investment is not going to be the owner and manager of constructed commercial investments any longer and rental income is going to constitute only a minor part of its total income. The focus of the adopted business model is on development activities, which include land acquisition, construction, lease and sale of finished projects in as short period of time as possible.
The strategy of Echo Investment assumes cooperation with the major shareholder on market conditions. Entities concentrated around PIMCO-Oaktree-Griffin Group may subcontract development, consulting and other services to Echo Investment. They may also be co-investors in property development projects as well as potential buyers of newly-built commercial, office or residential investments. Development activities of Echo Investment are complementary to these of other entities in this group. It should be highlighted that the material agreements between Echo Investment and affiliates of the major shareholders and Griffin Real Estate Group need to be discussed and approved by the Supervisory Board.
The ambition of Echo Investment is to run major, multi-function and city-forming projects. The Company intends to create functioning space for agglomeration residents - comfortable for work, living, entertainment and satisfaction of all needs. Projects realized by Echo Investment are supposed to promote city lifestyle and attract people for the entire day.
Echo Investment Group organizes the entire investment process for a given real property project, starting from purchasing property, through obtaining administrative decisions, financing and oversight of construction, ending with construction commissioning. These steps are taken in the Group's own name or – in most cases – through the special purpose vehicles (SPV). Implementation of development projects through subsidiaries considerably simplifies the organization of implemented processes and ensures transparency in the structure of the Group. The core business of Echo Investment Group is divided into following segments:
3Q 2016
REPORT
The Warsaw office market reached 5 mln sqm. GLA in recent months. In H2 2016, a drop in the number of delivered office buildings has been noted. In Q3 itself, the market increased only by the building West Station I (28,700 sqm. of GLA) and according to analysts it will increase by the end of the year by 75,300 sqm. (in the entire 2016, the total area of commissioned office buildings is to equal 454,100 sqm. of GLA). Simultaneously, tenants' significant activity has been observed. Between Q1 and Q3 2016, lease agreements concluded in Warsaw covered 530,700 sqm., i.e. more than new space delivered. Lease space absorption between January and September 2016, i.e. increased demand for modern office area (new companies, expansion of existing area, relocation from unclassified offices), constituted 218,000 sqm., which means it consumed approx. 41% of the entire demand.
Despite the record-breaking office supply in Warsaw, the vacancy rate dropped slightly during Q3 2016 from 15.4% to 14.6%. However, it is only a temporary effect: in comparison with Q3 2015, the rate increased by 1.6 percentage point and CBRE analysts expect its further growth until the end of H1 2018. They also notice that the problem affects new buildings to a lesser degree because lessees are willing to relocate to new offices, which is a good news for the real property development branch. Strong competition affects mainly owners of older office buildings and the ones with less convenient locations. Tenants are not attached to their former locations. It is enough to mention that as much as 60% of concluded agreements are new agreements (not extensions). This means that tenants are willing to change their seat and it's highly probable they will choose new buildings.
Towards the end of the last quarter, office premium rental rates did not drop for the first time in several years and stayed at approx. EUR 23/sqm./month. CBRE estimates that in the next two years rental rates should not change due to limited supply of the best office projects in central locations. In the long-term, an extra demand for office space may be observed as companies will be moving from Great Britain as a result of Brexit.
Currently, 50 office projects of the total lease area of almost 600,000 sqm. of GLA are under construction in Warsaw.
Source: CBRE
The growth factor for regional office markets in Poland are companies operating in the sector of shared services (BPO/SSC), generating approx. 60% of demand. The scale of eight regional markets (Cracow, Wrocław, Katowice, Trójmiasto, Poznań, Łódź, Szczecin and Lublin) is smaller than the scale of Warsaw but the dynamics of their development significantly exceeds the dynamics of the capital city. CBRE analysts expect that by 2019 office space in regional cities will increase by 22% – almost 800,000 sqm. of GLA is under construction and in the near future Cracow and Wrocław will exceed GLA 1 million sqm. each.
In Q3 2013, the total demand for offices in regional cities was 135,600 sqm. CBRE expects that the BPO/SSC branch will continue to increase the demand in the following years. Currently, the vacancy rate in the cities where Echo Investment operates ranges between 6.3% and 15.5% and the average level is 10,7%. According to analyses, rental rates on these markets remain stable.
It's worth mentioning that the sector of shared services, due to technologies applied, sensitivity of processed data, necessary technical security or employee expectations, often has very high requirements as to office buildings and therefore there is practically no difference between the quality of buildings in Warsaw and regional cities.

Upon the development of investment market, also in the transaction area, the differences between Warsaw and regional cities diminish. CBRE analysts prove that the average capitalization rate of recently recorded transactions in regional cities was 6.50%, i.e. 0.75% higher than in Warsaw. Taking into account the current economic and financial situation on the European market and constant development of the office market in Poland, return on subsequent transactions should be decreasing.
3Q 2016
REPORT
For the sector of shopping centres, end of the year is the season for opening new facilities. This year the market is expected to grow by 386,500 sqm. of GLA, whereby 73% will be commissioned in Q4. The next year supply is to be higher. CBRE analysts estimate that it will amount to almost 580,000.
Currently, the market is becoming saturated and has less ability to absorb subsequent shopping centres. However, it should be remembered that over the past years Poland was one of the leading countries in terms of created retail space. In the following years, modernization, development and reconstruction of existing facilities will have greater influence on the market. At present, around a half of shopping centres operating on the market are older than ten years. It is worth noticing than this year in Poland (Sosonowiec) for the first time a shopping centre was closed, which shows that the market is maturing. Observation of these trends shows that operating on the retail market requires significant knowledge, experience and attention.
Due to stable positive economic indices (low unemployment, forecast GDP increase, demand stimulation by the government), Poland continues to be an interesting market for international retailers. In spite of the problems Alma delicatessen is facing and of the planned withdrawal of Marks and Spencer from the market, new brands appear in Poland. According to CBRE, more than 40% of retailers that appeared on the market in 2016 represent luxury goods, which is another proof of market maturity.
The Polish commercial real property market is characterized by low vacancy rate of around 3%. As a result of significant number of new investments starting in Q4, analysts expect a slight rate increase but mostly in these facilities which are older or of worse quality. Rental rates also remain stable.
CBRE analysts consider the Warsaw agglomeration to be the market with the highest growth potential, where the vacancy rate is outstandingly low and amounts to 1.6%, purchasing power is the strongest in Poland and the number of residents increases systematically.
The introduction of a prohibition on Sunday trading and the so-called tax on trade, as contemplated by the government, carries potential risk of weakening of the turnover in shopping centres.

The housing market is still at the top of the business cycle. According to REAS reports, in Q3 2016 in six major Polish agglomerations (Warsaw, Cracow, Wrocław, Poznań, Tricity and Łódź), developers sold 14,100 apartments, which shows a drop in comparison with Q2 by 6.3% (the first drop since Q4 2014). It was connected with the expiry of the source of financing, i.e. subsidies under the programme "Housing for the Young" ("Mieszkania dla Młodych"). However, the number of apartments introduced to the market dropped by as much as 20%. In Q3 2016, it reached the level of 14,200, which means that additional apartment supply was absorbed by the market and the market offer remains practically unchanged (51,000 apartments). It should be also highlighted that Q2 2016, which serves for comparison with Q3, was record-breaking in terms of the number of apartments of which construction started and the results achieved in Q3 are still very good. REAS reports also point to an increase in the price of apartments introduced to the offer in the last quarter: by 3.1% in comparison with Q2 2016 and 6% in comparison with Q3 2015, as well as an increase in the selling price: by 4.2% when comparing Q2 and Q3 2016 and by 5.8% when comparing Q3 2016 and Q3 2015. Average prices of the entire offer stayed at a similar level, which, according to REAS analysts, is caused by introducing to the offer apartments that are more expensive and relatively easy to sell. What is more, according to the Credit Information Bureau (BIK), the total value of mortgages requested by the Polish citizens in banks in Q1–Q3 2016 was 1.4% higher than in the corresponding period of 2015, although the dynamics is falling.
The Management of Echo Investment considers the condition of housing market to be stable and the potential of increasing market share to be very high, taking into account organizational preparation, financial potential and low share in particular local housing markets. However, the Board also recognizes the need to prepare for housing sector cooling, which – due to the healthy grounds of its previous growth (natural demand, evolutionary price changes, relative symmetry between demand and supply) – should not be deep or rapid. Nevertheless, it will require greater effort from the real property development sector. The demand will be negatively influenced by the expiry of the programme "Housing for the Young" ("Mieszkanie dla Młodych"), weaker than expected macroeconomic data, a slight drop in the consumer's optimism as well as the possibility of interest rate increase, which will translate into higher credit expenses and lower attractiveness of investment apartment purchase, and will encourage to keep money in banks. However, the market is still under the impact of such factors as very low unemployment (8.2% in October), structural lack of apartments, economic activity of population boom generation born between 1976 and 1985 or increase in the number of big agglomeration residents. An additional positive factor for developers is the reawakening market of institutional apartment lease. In the past months, first substantial block transactions were concluded. Subsequent transactions may help to compensate for the drop in traditional transactions.
At the moment, it is difficult to assess the influence of the government "National Housing Programme" ("Narodowy Program Mieszkaniowy") on the residential market; however, having analysed the principles of the programme, the Management Board believes that its influence on the Company's activity will be insignificant due to different target groups.
According to the Central Statistical Office (GUS), in October 2016, construction and assembly production dropped by 20%
in comparison with October 2015, while cumulatively between January and October 2016 in comparison with the corresponding period of 2015 by 15%. The main reason for this drop is a decrease in the number of orders on the infrastructure market and the prices of raw materials and construction materials, which continue to be relatively low. The decrease in the number of orders resulted in greater competition with regard to construction building tenders and - what follows - in lower prices of services offered. Echo Investment, as a purchaser of construction services, benefits from this situation.
It should be highlighted that construction building is more profitable than infrastructure building. Echo Investment constantly cooperates with a selected and reliable group of subcontractors and suppliers with good financial and organizational standing and according to the Management Board the risk of problems as a result of these companies going bankrupt is low.
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the Echo Investment Capital Group have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting adopted in the European Union.
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Group include consolidated financial data as of 31 September 2016 and for the 3-month period ended on 31 September 2016 as well as comparative data for the 3-month period ended on 31 September 2015 in relation to the profit and loss account, the statement of changes in equity and the cash flow statement. The comparative data as of 31 December 2015 and 31 September 2015 are provided for the statement of financial position. Unless indicated otherwise, all financial data in the Group's condensed consolidated financial statements have been presented in thousands of PLN.
These financial statements should be analysed together with the annual consolidated financial statements for the FY ended on 31 December 2015, which were prepared according to the IFRS adopted for application in the EU.
The financial statements have been drawn up in accordance with the historical cost principle with the exception of investment property and financial instruments, which were measured at fair value. The statements have been drawn up according to the going concern principle as there are no circumstances indicating a threat to continued activity.
The Company's Management Board used its best judgment in the selection of the applicable standards, as well as measurement methods and principles for the different items of the condensed consolidated financial statements.
While developing this report, the Group has applied the accounting policies consistent with the principles adopted and set forth in the annual consolidated financial statements of 2015, with the exception of the application of following new or amended standards and new interpretations effective for annual periods commencing on 1 January 2016:
The Group analysed the above amendments and ascertained that they do not have any material impact on the Group's financial situation, results and the scope of disclosures in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
In a 9-month period of 2016, the Capital Group did not change its accounting principles.
3Q 2016
REPORT
On 1 July 2016, Echo Investment sold to Echo Polska Properties (EPP) the companies Echo Investment Property Management – "Grupa Echo Spółka z ograniczoną odpowiedzialnością" Spółka Komandytowa and "Echo Investment Facility Management – Grupa Echo Spółka z o.o." Spółka Komandytowa. This transaction complemented the process of divestment to EPP of constructed and operating commercial property and the sale of majority of its shares. Through this transaction Echo Investment withdrew from facility and property management activities and shifted the focus on property development activities in accordance with the Company's strategy. At the same time, the companies sold will provide services to finished commercial properties of Echo Investment Group. As at the date of the transaction, the two companies employed 65 people. This number caused a drop in the level of employment in Echo Investment Group.
On 23 August 2016, Echo Investment informed about the planned partial sale of a block of shares in EPP. Echo Prime Assets B.V., a subsidiary of Echo Investment holding EPP shares, concluded two agreements for the sale of shares: one with Lisala sp. z o.o. with its registered office in Warsaw (the major shareholder of Echo Investment) and one with Leon Kok, a citizen of the Republic of South Africa and at the same time the Financial Director of Redefine Properties Limited.
Pursuant to the agreement, Lisala would acquire 12,863,228 of EPP shares, representing around 2.5% of the share capital, while Leon Kok – 25,726,456 shares, representing around 5% of the share capital. Lisala will be able to transfer rights under the agreement to Echo Partners B.V., a company incorporated under the Dutch law, holding 100% of its share capital. Meanwhile, in the agreement for the acquisition of EPP shares Leon Kok represents the managing directors of Redefine and the EEP shares acquired by him will be transferred to them or to an entity controlled by them within one month after the transaction conclusion date.
Pursuant to the agreement, Lisala will pay EUR 12.9 million for the acquired shares in EPP until 1 April 2018 (including interest on the selling price for the period until the payment thereof), while Redefine directors – EUR 25.7 million in two tranches, i.e. the first on the agreement closing date and the second (including interest) within 12 months after the agreement conclusion date. As a result of deferred payments, Echo Investment's previous obligation not to sell EPP shares was reduced from five years to one year after EPP's IPO on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange. At the same time, Lisala undertook not to sell EPP shares for five years as of this event.
The transaction will be closed subject to obtaining necessary permits of the financing banks. The parties to the agreements obliged to make efforts to ensure that the conditions precedent are fulfilled as soon as possible, i.e. before 30 November 2016. Both agreements will be closed within five business days as of the fulfilment of the conditions precedent or within another timeframe agreed by the parties to a given agreement.
Until the publication of this report, the transaction was not closed. Upon closing of the transaction, Echo Investment will be holding 89,917,597 ordinary shares and one preference share in EPP.
3Q 2016
REPORT
On 25 July 2016, Echo Investment as a significant EPP shareholder, holding 24.98% of its shares and one preference share (in total 128,507,282 shares), obtained information on the planned IPO of EPP shares to two foreign stock exchanges. EPP was admitted
15,34%
for trading on the stock exchange in Luxembourg on 30 August 2016 and share trading started on 31 August 2016. Subsequently, as a result of share issue addressed to a limited group of investors, generating EUR 100 million for EPP, the share of Echo Investment in the share capital and votes at the General Meeting of EPP dropped from 24.98% to 21.93%. Following the share issue, all 586,051,293 EPP shares were introduced to trading on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange.
Upon share issue to selected investors and closing the transaction of share sale to Lisala and Redefine directors, Echo Investment will be the holder of 89,917,597 ordinary shares and one preference share
of EPP, representing 15.34% of share capital and votes at the General Meeting of EPP.
Following the ROFO (right of first offer) agreement as of 1 June 2016 between Echo Investment and EPP, on 30 September 2016, a preliminary conditional agreement for the sale of seven office buildings of the total GLA of approx. 112,000 sqm. was signed. The agreement concerned the following buildings: Tryton Business House in Gdańsk, Symetris I and II in Łódź, A4 Business Park III in Katowice and O3 Business Campus I, II and III in Cracow.
Closing of transactions for the sale of particular buildings depends on the following events:
Final agreements will be concluded not later than three years after the conclusion of preliminary sale agreements within:
7 business days from the satisfaction of all conditions for the buildings Tryton, O3 Business Campus I, A4 Business Park III and Symetris Business Park I,
25 business days for the buildings Symetris Business Park II, O3 Business Campus II and O3 Business Campus III.
The final selling price of every building will be established as a net amount corresponding to the quotient of NOI (annual real property

REPORT
rental income less non-deductible expenses, calculated as at the date stipulated in a given agreement) and the Yield value (the ratio of annual return on rental property and funds invested in it by the selling company) less the possible costs of completing design works and possible costs of rectifying defects increased by 30% (excluding O3 Business Campus – phase 2, O3 Business Campus – phase 3 and Symetris Business Park – phase 2). As at the transaction date, the total quotient of NOI and Yield for all agreements was EUR 263,935,529.

It should be emphasised that under the agreement of 1 June 2016, EPP is a co-investor of the buildings covered by the ROFO agreement and finances 25% of those investment projects. Accordingly, it is entitled to 25% of the profit from the sale thereof.
On 15 September 2016, Echo Investment and Echo Polska Properties (EPP) concluded conditional agreements for the purchase of 13 land properties within the boundaries of the following streets: Towarowa, Pańska and Miedziana in Warsaw, and a retail and leisure project planned in this area. The share of Echo Investment in the transaction and planned enterprise equals 30%, while the remaining 70% will belong to EPP.
The property selling price was established at EUR 78 million; however, it may be increased to EUR 120 million to be paid in installements upon achievement certain project milestones.
The seller is a company from Griffin Real Estate Group. The conclusion of the conditional sales agreement and the payment of the basic price depend on the fulfilment of the following conditions precedent:
On 26 July 2016, Echo Investment purchased 100% of shares of five companies making up an enterprise called Compass Offices. Through this investment Echo Investment entered the market of short-term office space lease contracts. With the support of Echo Investment, Compass Offices will be developing its business models at new locations, mainly in buildings developed by Echo Investment.

The operations of the Group cover several segments. The sale of housing projects depends on the commissioned residential buildings and revenue on these operations is generated practically in every quarter but it varies in terms of stability. As a result of sale on 1 June 2016 of almost the entire portfolio of operating commercial real property, revenue from the lease of commercial space is no longer comparable in different periods. Revenue from construction services and property trading can be irregular. The Management Board cannot exclude other one-time events which may influence results generated in a given period.
In addition to own funds, borrowings and loans, current activities of the Capital Group are also funded through the issue of debt financial instruments.
On 15 April 2004, Echo Investment S.A. and mBank S.A. signed an agency agreement and a dealership agreement on an issue programme for short-term, mid-term and long-term bonds denominated in the Polish zloty, with a maximum nominal value of the programme of PLN 1 billion. Based on those agreements, mBank S.A. undertook to organise and ensure comprehensive issue of the Company's bonds as part of the Bonds Issue Programme. Those agreements and the addenda thereto were concluded for indefinite time and they provide for multiple non-public issues of the bonds by the Company. The maximum total nominal value of all bonds that may be issued is PLN 1 billion. The bonds under the Bonds Issue Programme are issued as unsecured bearer securities. The interest rate on the bonds may be fixed or variable.
The final issue terms and conditions are determined before the issue, during the Bonds Issue Programme.
The cash obtained from the bond issue will supplement currently held loan facilities and will allow the Company to finance the planned investments and to develop its operations on the real property market.
As of 30 September 2016, the Issue Programme allowed for the issue of bonds with a total maximum nominal value of PLN 1 billion. On 11 February 2016, Echo Investment S.A. redeemed bonds in the total amount of PLN 125 million.
On 27 June 2016 Echo Investment S.A. redeemed public bonds of A series in the total amount of PLN 50 million.
