Comments from President and Chief Executive Officer Andreas Philipson
In the fourth quarter we focused on zoning plan development for our project property Haga Norra in Solna, Stockholm. We have made some more progress but the process has taken a bit longer than we had originally estimated. The proposed zoning plan is essentially finished and the only issues remaining in our dialog with the City of Solna are related to exploitations costs for certain common areas.
In parallel to the zoning plan development, leasing efforts are underway. We notice the high attractiveness of locating offices to Haga Norra, close to the E4 highway, to the airport, or downtown Stockholm. With all the major construction projects such as Arenastaden, Nya Karolinska and Hagastaden that are emerging in the immediate area, we think that Stora Frösunda stands at the center of this new and exciting part of greater Stockholm.
Profit before tax in the fourth quarter amounted to SEK 10 M, and landed at SEK 91 M for the full year. The operations and profits developed as planned. Existing tenants give a stable cash flow that ensures a continued financing of projects.
Altogether, this makes me optimistic as to Catena's development potential for 2012.
THE GROUP'S REVENUES, EXPENSES AND EARNINGS
Comparisons stated in brackets are for the corresponding period of the previous year. Information is for continuing operations only.
Fourth quarter
In the fourth quarter, rental revenue amounted to SEK 6.5 M (6.8). Property expenses were SEK 1.3 M (1.5) while the operating surplus was SEK 5.2 M (5.3). Administration costs amounted to SEK 2.2 M (4.5).
Change in property value amounted to SEK 9.2 M (20.0) in the quarter. The property value was appraised to a total of SEK 610 M, of which the value of development rights was estimated to SEK 220 Mk. This value includes investments of SEK 0.8 M. The appraisal was conducted by Forum Fastighetsekonomi, with a valuation date of December 31.
The positive change in property value is primarily due to continued progress in the zoning plan work. Once the zoning plan is approved, there is significant potential in the value of properties and development rights.
Unrealized value changes on interest swaps amounted to SEK 0.6 M.
Operating profit amounted to SEK 12.3 M (20.8) while net financial items were SEK -2.2 M (-0.3).
Current tax amounted to SEK -4.0 M (-4.7) and deferred tax was SEK -5.2 M (-1.0).
Twelve months
In the period rental revenue amounted to SEK 27.0 M (27.4). Property expenses were SEK 6.4 M (7.0) while the operating surplus was SEK 20.6 M (20.4). Administrative costs amounted to SEK 12.9 M (12.8).
The change in property value for the period was SEK 86.7 M. Investments in properties for the period amounted to SEK 3.4 M. The positive change in property value in the period is primarily due to progress in the zoning plan work.
To attain the interest structure stipulated by the group's finance policy, Catena uses interest swaps. These financial instruments also limit the impact of interest rate fluctuations on the group's cost of borrowing. The value of these interest swaps increase or decrease as the contracted interest rate varies from the corresponding market interest rate, and with time to maturity. Hedge accounting is not applied. The unrealized value change has no effect on the group's cash flow.
Operating profit amounted to SEK 94.5 M (137.6), while net financial items were SEK -3.8 M (-9.3)
Current tax amounted to SEK -5.0 M (-4.7) and deferred tax was SEK -24.7 M (-30.0).
Properties
The group's property portfolio consists, after the sale completed in the beginning of 2011, of two properties in Haga Norra, Solna, Stockholm.
These properties have leasable area of 40,723 sq. m. Total rental value as of December 31, 2011 amounted to SEK 28.7 M (28.7). The economic occupancy rate amounted to 96.9% (96.9).
Valuation and applied valuation method
The total fair value of properties including the estimated increase in value for development rights amounts to SEK 610 M. The increase in value associated with development rights is estimated at SEK 220 M. Considering that, among other things, the zoning planning work not being complete, great prudence has been applied to quantifying these estimates. Once the zoning plan is adopted, there is a significant potential in the value of the development rights.
A combination of a location based price method and yield-based method has been used. When assessing vale, a calculation technique has been used to estimate the future cash flows of the valued property. These cash flows have been discounted to present value. The location price method has been applied to estimate the scale of the risk premium in the yield requirement used to estimate residual
value in the cash flow computations and for judging the scale of the discount rate applied for the present value calculation of estimated future cash flows in the cash flow computation. The value appraisal was conducted by an authorized real estate appraiser at independent valuer Forum Fastighetsekonomi.
The value appraisal has been conducted partly by estimating the fair value of properties based on a hypothetical situation where their current usage represents the greatest and best benefit for the holder. Subsequently, an increase in value has been applied to properties based on the potential development rights that may be enabled through the ongoing detailed development planning work. The value of development rights has been estimated through comparisons with land allocation contracts and agreement on transferring development rights in the Stockholm suburbs. A deduction has been made with respect to costs, waiting periods and uncertainty etc. associated with development rights.
Financing
As of December 31, 2011, the Catena group had loan agreements amounting to SEK 306 M.
At the end of the period, interest-bearing liabilities were SEK 306 M (987).
The loan is due in 2014.
The average fixed-interest period as of December 31, 2011 amounted to 0.3 years (0.3). Average interest rate was 4.14% (3.02).
The fixed-interest period has been achieved by extending loans with short fixed-interest periods using swap agreements.
Catena only has loans denominated in Swedish krona.
Equity
Equity amounted to SEK 297 M (845) as of December 31, 2011 and the equity/assets ratio was 41.8% (38.9). Over the long term, the equity/assets ratio should be in the 25 – 35 % range.
