Storm Real Estate ASA Interim report January – June 2020
Storm Real Estate ASA's business strategy is to acquire and manage real estate. The strategy includes equities and high yield investments.
| All numbers in mill. USD | Unaudited H1 2020 |
Unaudited H1 2019 |
|---|---|---|
| Total Comprehensive Income | +5.3 | +1,5 |
Summary of the largest major items:
| NOI from investment property | +0.7 | +0.7 |
|---|---|---|
| Value change investment property | -3.4 | +2.3 |
| Other operational expenses | -0.4 | -0.6 |
| Borrowing costs | -0.7 | -0.8 |
| Currency gain / loss | -0.0 | -0.1 |
| Fair value adjustment bank loan (see note 3) | +9.1 | 0.0 |
| Taxes | +0.0 | -0.1 |
| Return ratios | Return on Equity (1) |
Total Shareholder Return (2) |
|---|---|---|
| Last 1 year | +142.8% | -6.5% |
| Last 3 years (annualised) | -5.5% | -21.4% |
| Last 5 years (annualised) | -18.6% | -28.8% |
(1) Return on Equity = Total Comprehensive Income (IFRS) for the period / (brought forward equity (IFRS) as at start of the period + other changes in equity than Total Comprehensive income (IFRS) for the period), annualised. *
(2) Total Shareholder Return = Movement in share price, dividend adjusted, annualised using XIRR formula. Calculated using historical share prices as adjusted by Oslo Stock Exchange post rights offering in June 2017.
*The formula used to calculate the return on equity stated above was altered on 30 June 2019. The former formula (Return on Equity = Total Comprehensive Income (IFRS) for the period / brought forward equity (IFRS) for start of the period, annualised) did not consider other changes in equity than Total Comprehensive income in the period. To show the return on other changes in equity as well, we have included it in the new formula, see note (1) above.
These return ratios are Alternative Performance Measures, and are presented in accordance with ESMA's "Guidelines on Alternative Performance Measures" from 2015. These are reliably measured, and the company considers these relevant, because different stakeholders might consider different NAV per share in NOK and Total Shareholder Return relevant alternative performance measures.
(all following numbers are in USD)
In accordance with international accounting standards (IFRS) the movement in value of investment property are split over two separate posts, explained by the following: Our Russian subsidiary which owns the building uses Russian rubles as functional currency. According to IFRS, only the part of the fair value adjustment which can be attributed to RUB is presented over the Income Statement. The effect of currency exchange movements between RUB and USD is presented as Other Comprehensive Income and is included in term Total Comprehensive Income. We see Total Comprehensive Income as the most relevant profit measure for the Group. In every quarter we present an explanatory statement of the fair value adjustment:
| Change in value, million USD | H1 2020 | H1 2019 |
|---|---|---|
| Over income statement | -0.3 | +0.1 |
| Translation difference over Other Comprehensive Income |
-3.1 | +2.2 |
| Sum value adjustments properties | -3.4 | +2.3 |
The agreement with Swedbank AB and Aconcagua Management Ltd has made it likely that the Group will be able to refinance its current bank debt and continue its operations. However, the Board of Directors emphasis that the refinancing is not yet completed and that the Covid-19 pandemic has created uncertainty related to the future value of the investment property. If the refinancing of the Group is unsuccessful, it is likely that the building will be sold within a short time frame before 30 June 2022.
For further business risks than described above, please refer to the company's annual report for 2019.

On 27 June 2019 the Annual General Meeting adopted a reverse share split reducing the number of shares from 88 345 623 to 8 834 563. The reverse share split came into effect on 10 July 2019. The reverse share split was done in order to be compliant with the requirements of the Continuing obligations of stock exchanged listed companies, stating that the company must implement measures if the value of its shares has been lower than NOK 1 for a six-month period. The reverse share split did not affect the value of each shareholder's position.

As described in the annual report of 2019, Storm Real Estate ASA has over several years negotiated with its main creditor, Swedbank AB, to refinance its current bank debt. During this period the company and the bank has entered into several standstill agreements, waving covenants and amortisation, to give the parties time to negotiate a final solution. On 27 May 2020 Storm Real Estate ASA, Swedbank AB and Aconcagua Management Ltd (wholly owned by Morten E. Astrup) entered into a new agreement, please see the public announcement on newsweb.no (https://newsweb.oslobors.no/message/506635). The new agreement extends the standstill period until 30 June 2022. During the standstill period, Storm Real Estate ASA and (provided equal treatment of shareholders is ensured) Aconcagua Management Ltd will have a right to repay and/or purchase the entirety of the outstanding debt for an amount equal to the sum of the USD equivalent of RUB 558 million (at the exchange rate at time of transaction, however not higher than USD:RUB 65) and USD 2.9 million ("the Option"). As at 30 June 2020 the original debt was USD 20,562,189. The continued standstill remains subject to certain conditions, see below.
Other amended terms include:
Due to the amended terms, the bank loan is classified as non-current loans from credit institutions in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.
According to IFRS 9, the amended terms requires the company to perform an assessment of what kind of modification this is. If the present value of the expected new cash flows under the new terms are more than 10% different from the present value of the remaining cash flows of the original liability, the company must perform a fair value adjustment of the debt. By using the expected future cash flow under the new terms (including the use of the Option), discounted using an alternative interest rate of 5.95%, the new present value is equal to approximately USD 11.5m. The change in value from face value to fair value (USD 9.1m) is recognised as a financial income in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income. However, this does not change the fact that the face value of the loan is still USD 20,562,189.
The effect of the above is an increase in equity of approximately USD 9.1m. The company would like to emphasise that the value of the equity is also affected by changes in the value of the investment property, which has been volatile for several years. Please see the sensitivity analysis by Cushman & Wakefield in note 3, which shows the effect of changing discount rate, capitalization rate and income level on the valuation of the building. A weakening of the real estate market in Moscow, due to for instance the Covid-19 pandemic, could cause an increase in the discount rate and the capitalisation rate, and a decrease of the income level.
Swedbank AB has over time expressed its wish to exit the engagement as soon as possible, hence the agreement with the bank is affected by Swedbank's fire sale value of the building, which both parties believe is below the lowest value in the sensitivity analysis in note 3.

During the period the Covid-19 pandemic has had a severe human and financial impact on both the Norwegian and Russian society. The effects on the office market in Moscow is still uncertain. The experts discuss the potential permanent effects, such as more remote work (for instance employees working from home and digital workplaces), the revival of the suburban areas (citizens moving out of the city centre), less open space, more flexible workspace and higher demand for shared workspaces. How this will affect future rental rates and the occupancy in the Gasfield building is highly uncertain. There are effects with both positive and negative impact on the business. Currently, the occupancy is still high, and discounts given to tenants have been modest. Management in Russia has a major focus on the wellbeing of its employees and its tenants, and has implemented the measures recommended by the government to reduce the risk of spreading the virus in the building.
