Basic earnings and results for the year

The Group’s basic earnings amount to DKK 31.1 million (DKK 24.1 million), which is in accordance with Company Announcement of 24 November 2016.

Basic earnings are higher than the level of DKK 28.0 million stated in the Announcement of 26 August 2016 and the level of DKK 20.0 million stated in the Annual Report 2014/15. The higher basic earnings are primarily attributable to increased capital gains and improvements of losses and fair value adjustment of credit risk on the Group’s mortgage deeds.

Basic earnings are calculated as profit/loss before tax for the year adjusted for fair value adjustments of financial assets, debt and foreign exchange movements and realised gains/losses on bonds and shares.

The Group’s results before tax amount to DKK 29.1 million (DKK -10.2 million). After recognition of tax for the year of DKK 7.0 million (DKK -1.7 million), the results after tax for the year amount to DKK 22.1 million (DKK -8.5 million).

The results for the year are affected by net positive fair value adjustments and realised losses on bonds including currency hedging of DKK 8.1 million, negative fair value adjustments of interest swaps and debt to mortgage credit institutes of DKK -7.5 million as well as fair value adjustments of investment properties, DKK -2.1 million.

Fourth quarter of the financial year 2016

The Group’s basic earnings for the fourth quarter of the financial year 2016 amount to DKK 6.8 million (DKK 6.6 million), and results before tax amount to DKK 9.7 million (DKK -15.9 million). The results for the quarter are positively affected by DKK 4.7 million (DKK -21.4 million) resulting from net positive fair value adjustments and realised gains/losses on bonds as well as fair value adjustments of investment properties, DKK -2.1 million.

Business areas

The Group’s balance sheet, DKK 868.6 million (DKK 915.5 million), includes the following business areas:

| | 2015/16

Mortgage deeds

The fair value of the Group’s portfolio of mortgage deeds amounts to DKK 555.8 million (DKK 510.9 million).

The fair value of the Group’s portfolio of mortgage deeds is distributed with DKK 401.9 million (DKK 362.2 million) in fixed-interest mortgage deeds and DKK 153.9 million (DKK 148.7 million) in floating-rate cibor mortgage deeds.


Investeringsselskabet Luxor A S

The total return on the portfolio of mortgage deeds for the financial year is specified as follows:

| | 2015/16
DKK million | 2014/15
DKK million |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Interest income | 44.6 | 36.0 |
| Capital gains, mortgage deeds | 6.8 | 4.3 |
| Fair value adjustment | -0.3 | 2.1 |
| | 51.1 | 42.4 |
| Realised losses on mortgage deeds,
fair value adjustment of credit risk,
bad debts recovered and gain
on sale of properties acquired
for the purpose of resale | -6.5 | -11.7 |
| | 44.6 | 30.7 |

Fixed-interest mortgage deeds of a nominal amount of DKK 410.5 million have been measured at fair value on the basis of an average effective interest rate of 8.5% p.a. (average 8.5% p.a.). Fixed-interest mortgage deeds of a nominal amount of DKK 45.4 million and cibor mortgage deeds of a nominal amount of DKK 174.8 million have been measured at fair value corresponding to cost less provisions for bad debts. The total fair value adjustment of mortgage deeds is a negative DKK 0.3 million (DKK 2.1 million); the amount is recognised in fair value adjustment of financial assets.

The market rate for new mortgage deeds is in the range 7.25% - 9.0% p.a. (7.5% - 9.0% p.a.).

The Group's portfolio of mortgage deeds has an average market value per mortgage deed of kDKK 277.3 (kDKK 270.2).

The nominal amount of the mortgage deed portfolio has increased from DKK 589.3 million to DKK 630.7 million. The increase consists of additions of DKK 121.4 million (DKK 262.5 million) and redemptions of DKK 80.0 million (DKK 71.4 million). The addition of mortgage deeds in the financial year primarily consists of specific mortgage deeds purchased on the basis of an individual assessment.

The rate of redemption of mortgage deeds in the financial year 2015/16 is in line with the financial year 2014/15.

For the coming year, the Group expects a continued net increase of the portfolio of mortgage deeds and a small increase in premature repayments.

Capital gains on redeemed mortgage deeds amount to DKK 6.8 million (DKK 4.3 million); the increased capital gains primarily relate to the composition of the cost of the redeemed mortgage deeds.

Net loss/gain and direct expenses amount to DKK -7.6 million (DKK -12.3 million). The loss for the year and fair value adjustment of credit risk are lower than expected as the development towards more normalised losses and fair value adjustment of credit risk has progressed more positively than expected.

Net loss/gain and direct expenses include:

  • adjustment to meet the credit risk on mortgage deeds and mortgage deed receivables of DKK -3.7 million (DKK -1.4 million);
  • bad debts recovered of DKK 3.8 million (DKK 2.3 million);
  • gain on sale of properties acquired for the purpose of resale of DKK 0.0 million (DKK 0.5 million), and provisions of DKK -0.3 million (DKK 1.8 million) have been made for losses on properties acquired for the purpose of resale. Properties acquired for the purpose of resale have been purchased to secure loans granted by the Group.

The shares were received in connection with a reconstruction of a bond issuer where the Group’s portfolio of bonds was converted into shares.

To the extent that corporate bonds in the Group’s portfolio are converted into shares, the Supervisory Board has granted authorisation to maintain the ownership of the listed or unlisted shares for a period until the shares can be sold at a value which, in the opinion of the Parent Company, reflects the actual value of the share. Thus, the authorisation is not an authorisation to buy shares and build up a share portfolio.


Investeringsselskabet
Luxor

The shares are expected to be sold when they have a value which, in the opinion of the Parent Company, reflects the actual value of the share.

Pursuant to the Danish Act on Alternative Investment Fund Managers, the Danish Financial Supervisory Authority has granted the Parent Company an exemption in respect of being permitted to manage shares received in connection with a corporate bond in the portfolio being wholly or partly converted into shares.

Financing and debt

The fair value of the Group's short-term debt to credit institutions amounts to DKK 396.4 million (DKK 449.5 million). After conversion by means of matching forward contracts, the debt is distributed as follows:

DKK 79.24% 52.33%
USD 18.34% 34.24%
EUR 0.00% 11.10%
NOK 2.42% 2.33%
100.00% 100.00%

Part of the loans in DKK has been converted into USD with currency swaps for hedging of assets in USD. The effect of this is included in the above currency distribution.

Fair value adjustments for the year of loans in foreign currencies amount to DKK -1.9 million (DKK -21.1 million).

The Company has pegged the interest rate on DKK 150.0 million (DKK 150.0 million) through DKK interest swaps with a remaining term of up to approx. 9 years. Fair value adjustment of interest swaps for the financial year is a negative DKK 5.3 million (DKK -1.3 million).

The net movement for the year deriving from exchange adjustments of foreign loans, forward contracts, securities, etc is a positive DKK 0.1 million (DKK -5.8 million). Financing in foreign currencies is primarily used with a view to hedging assets in foreign currencies.

Currency 30 September 2016 30 September 2015

Mortgage credit loans, investment properties

The fair value of the Group’s debt to mortgage credit institutes amounts to DKK 79.1 million (DKK 82.5 million).

Fair value adjustment of mortgage credit institutes amounts to DKK -1.0 million (DKK -1.3 million).

The Group has pegged the interest rate on DKK 41.8 million (DKK 44.0 million) through interest swaps with a duration of up to 11 years; fair value adjustment of interest swaps for mortgage credit loans for the financial year is a negative DKK -1.2 million (DKK -0.4 million).

The total fair value adjustment of interest swaps with mortgage credit institutes amounts to DKK 7.2 million.

Cash flows and liquidity

Cash flows from the Group’s operating activities amount to DKK 32.9 million (DKK 41.6 million). In 2015/16, cash flows from operating activities were affected by the inflow of cash from properties acquired for the purpose of resale of DKK 3.6 million (DKK 15.5 million).

Based on the credit facilities available at the end of September 2016, the Group is able to carry through the planned activities in the coming financial year.

Risk factors

The Group’s activities are exposed to a number of risk factors, which may be divided into categories. For an elaboration of these and other factors, reference is made to the description of the Group’s risk factors in note 36.

Risk relating to equity and market values upon change of parameter

The below table shows the sensitivity of a number of significant balance sheet items at 30 September 2016 and 30 September 2015.

DKK million Increase in parameter 2015/16 Fair value 2015/16 Change of value 2014/15 Fair value 2014/15 Change of value
Mortgage deeds 1% effective rate of interest 555.8 21.0 510.9 18.5
Bonds 1% effective rate of interest 77.1 2.0 153.2 5.3
Shares 10% change in value 1.7 0.2 1.8 0.2
Investment properties 0.5% yield requirement 182.3 11.8 180.5 11.3
Foreign currency loans 10% change in exchange rate 55.6 5.6 214.4 21.4
Securities in foreign currencies 10% change in value 77.1 7.7 153.2 15.3

It should be added that if the above parameters were to develop negatively due to an increase in interest rates, this would be counterbalanced by a certain reduction of the cash value of mortgage credit loans and other fixed-interest loans raised. A $1\%$ change in interest rates on the part of the Company's financing which is not raised at a fixed interest rate over a multi-year period will affect the profit/loss for the year before tax by approx. DKK 2.4 million (DKK 3.2 million) on an annual basis. Similarly, a $10\%$ change of the exchange rate on securities in foreign currencies will to a considerable extent be counterbalanced by adjustment of loans and forward contracts in foreign currencies.

Uncertainty relating to recognition and measurement

In connection with the preparation of the Annual Report, Management makes a number of accounting estimates and lays down the assumptions forming the basis of the presentation, recognition and measurement of the Group’s assets and liabilities. The most significant accounting estimates and assessments appear from the paragraph significant accounting estimates and assessments in note 2 to the Annual Report, description of accounting policies.

Dividend, repurchase of own shares and other capital issues

Based on an overall assessment of results for the year, the development in basic earnings, the present earnings expectations and more efficient utilisation of the capital structure, etc, the Supervisory Board proposes a dividend of DKK 25.0 (DKK 20.0) per share – corresponding to DKK 25.0 million (DKK 20.0 million).

The Supervisory Board is authorised to let the Company acquire own shares for up to a nominal amount of DKK 10.0 million. The acquisition must take place at prices which do not deviate more than +/- 10% from the official price for the Company’s shares quoted on Nasdaq Copenhagen A/S at the time of the acquisition. The authorisation was granted at the Annual General Meeting on 30 January 2015 and applies for 5 years.

During the financial year, no repurchases were made under the scheme for repurchase of own shares, and the Company holds no own shares at present.

Future prospects and post balance sheet events

At present, basic earnings of approx. DKK 24.0 million are expected for the coming year. Fair value adjustments and realised losses and gains on bonds, foreign currencies and interest swaps, etc are not included in basic earnings and will at 7 December 2016 affect results for the year before tax by DKK 4.8 million.

The expectations for the future, including expectations relating to basic earnings, fair value adjustments and losses/gains on securities, are subject to risks and uncertainties and may be affected by factors such as global economic conditions, including credit market, interest rate and foreign exchange developments. Thus, the actual development and actual results might differ significantly from the expectations in the Annual Report.

The Company publishes the expected level of basic earnings for the year in its Annual Report and Interim Reports. The earnings expectations are not specified in detail as the yield on fixed asset investments changes on a daily basis, which means that the earnings expectations differ from the actual expectations already at the time of publication.

Alternative investment fund manager

Investeringsselskabet Luxor A/S is permitted to carry on management activities as an alternative investment fund manager according to section 6 (1) of the Danish Act on Alternative Investment Fund Managers etc.

Pursuant to the Danish Act on Alternative Investment Fund Managers, the Parent Company is permitted to invest in mortgage deeds, bonds and properties, and has been granted an exemption by the Danish Financial Supervisory Authority according to section 15 of the Act in respect of also being permitted to manage shares received in connection with a corporate bond in the portfolio being wholly or partly converted into shares.


Investeringsselskabet Luxor
A/S

In the information to the investors pursuant to the Danish Act on Alternative Investment Fund Managers, the only significant change is that the individual bond issuer may not constitute more than 4% (3.5%) of the Company's equity. Apart from this, there have been no significant changes in the Parent Company's information to the investors.

The Company's shares are listed on Nasdaq Copenhagen A/S, and therefore the Company's shares cannot be redeemed; consequently, the market value of the share may differ from the net asset value of the Company.

Information to the investors can be read on www.luxor.dk under Investor information.

Reporting on corporate social responsibility, human rights and environmental and climatic impacts

Investeringsselskabet Luxor A/S has no policy on corporate social responsibility including human rights and environmental and climatic impacts.

Intellectual capital resources

The Group's future development depends on its ability also in future to retain and attract qualified employees for the performance of the Group's main activities.

Capital

Information the purpose of which is to promote the sale of the Company's shares is included partly in note 24 and partly in continuation of the Company's statement of Corporate Governance on the Company's website under Investor information.

Corporate Governance

In May 2013 (revised November 2014), the Committee on Corporate Governance issued updated recommendations on Corporate Governance based on the "comply or explain" principle. In the opinion of the Supervisory Board, the Management of Investeringsselskabet Luxor A/S complies with the most significant recommendations in the Corporate Governance report.

The Company's recommendations on Corporate Governance were updated on 19 December 2016.

Investeringsselskabet Luxor A/S has chosen a different practice in the following areas:

  • The Company has no policy on corporate social responsibility including human rights and climatic impact. However, in the investment process etc, the Company attaches importance to investing in enterprises which run their business in a socially responsible way.
  • The Company publishes Interim Reports in Danish and English; the Annual Report is published in Danish, and an extract of the Annual Report is published in English. The English version is published shortly after the publication of the Danish version. Other announcements are published in Danish only. The Company's website is in Danish.
  • The Supervisory Board has not appointed a deputy chairman due to the size of the Supervisory Board.

Investeringsselskabet Luxor
A/S

  • The Company has not published a competence description on its website, and the Company has not described the individual members' competences in the Annual Report. The Supervisory Board is composed on the basis of an overall assessment of the competence and versatility of the members.
  • The Company has not stipulated any specific retirement age for the members of the supreme governing body, as the Supervisory Board is of the opinion that the members' qualifications, and not their age, are decisive for their ability to discharge their duties.
  • At present, the Company has no committees, as the supreme governing body finds that a small operational Supervisory Board makes it possible for the total supreme governing body to discuss and make all significant decisions.
  • The supreme governing body does not evaluate its performance based on a formal procedure. Strategic objectives and planning are followed up on a current basis. So far, this method has ensured the efficient function of the supreme governing body. The self-evaluation procedure and its outcome are not disclosed in the Annual Report.
  • The Company does not evaluate the cooperation between the Executive Board and the supreme governing body based on a formal procedure. The cooperation between the parties is followed up on a current basis. This method ensures efficient cooperation.
  • The Company does not publish a description of the criteria forming the basis of the balance between the individual remuneration components.
  • The Annual Report does not provide an explanation of the linkage between remuneration and remuneration policy.

Investeringsselskabet Luxor A/S has prepared a complete description of the Group's Corporate Governance policy based on the recommendations of Nasdaq Copenhagen A/S. The description can be read or downloaded on http://www.luxor.dk/investor-information/virksomhedsledelse/ under the item Shareholder information.

The Supervisory Board's description of internal controls and risk management in connection with the financial reporting process:

The Supervisory Board and the Executive Board have overall responsibility for the Group's risk management and internal controls in connection with the financial reporting, including compliance with relevant legislation and other regulation in relation to the financial reporting.

The Company has systems for risk management and internal controls in order to ensure that the internal and external financial reporting give a true and fair view without material misstatement.

Investeringsselskabet Luxor A/S has prepared a statement of Corporate Governance for the financial year 2015/16, which can be read on http://www.luxor.dk/investor-information/virksomhedsledelse/.

Reporting on and target figures for the gender composition of Company Management

The Supervisory Board of Investeringsselskabet Luxor A/S consists of three members. At present, there are no women on the Supervisory Board.

The Supervisory Board defines the competences needed by the Company and assesses on a current basis whether the composition of the Supervisory Board and the competences of its members, individually and in the aggregate, reflect the Company's requirements and needs. The assessment is made with a view to increasing value creation and ensuring the necessary new thinking combined with the wish for continuity.

In the Supervisory Board's opinion, there has been no need for adjusting the composition of the Supervisory Board, and consequently there have been no replacements of members of the Company's Supervisory Board this year.

In accordance with section 99b of the Danish Financial Statements Act, the Supervisory Board has adopted a target figure according to which the aim is to have female board members elected corresponding to at least 20% of the total Supervisory Board by 2020.

For several years, the Company has focused on diversity among its employees and in Management, including an equal distribution between men and women.

The Company's other levels of management consist of the Executive Board and the CFO; thus there is an equal distribution between men and women at the management level.

The Danish Business Authority considers a gender distribution of 40/60% to be equal, and therefore no further target figures or policies for the Company's gender composition at other levels of management are reported.
