  • The residential building market has improved during 2015. The Company has several ongoing discussions but did not manage to agree on any plot sales during the quarter. RomReal did receive serious bids on several of its assets, but no negotiations has so far concluded in a sale • In April, RomReal entered into a conditional agreement to sell 100% of Balada Market at a price slightly below IFRS value.

  • as of May 26, while remaining CEO of the operational company in Romania. The Chairman of the Board; Mr. Kjetil Grønskag, takes up the role as the holding company CEO

Romanian Macro development

• The overall Romanian economy grew 4.2 percent in the first quarter of 2016, up from 3.8% for 2015. Romania is expected to grow around 4% for 2016, a far higher growth rate than for EU as a whole. The Interbank rate is still at 1.75% - a record low rate GDP Growth – annual change Unemployment rate

Romania Real Estate Update

  • In the first quarter, land transactions doubled compared to last year, according to DTZ Echinox
  • Residential building permits rose 11% in February
  • The Prima Casa program was increased in May by RON 500 million to ca. RON 2.1 billion for 2016, a very positive additional funding source for the residential market
  • Residential building permits • The Debt Discharge law has been active starting with May 2016 and enables mortgage-back loan holders with loans up to EUR 250.000 to transfer their asset to the creditor in exchange for loan write-off. Since the law was proposed, the Prima Casa program has been exempt from the law, an amendment which has reduced fears that the law will stop the current turnaround in the residential market.
