First quarter 2014 preliminary data confirms the strong trend at the end of 2013 with a Q1 2014 GDP growth of 3.8% compared to the same period of last year. It is the second quarter in a row when Romania has had the largest annual economic growth in the EU after in Q4 2013 Romania registered a 5.1 percent GDP increase. Eurostat reports that EU had a 1.4 percent increase in Q1 2014 and the Eurozone, a 0.9 percent growth. In a very recent report, S&P believes Romania will maintain steady GDP growth, averaging 3% over 2014-2017. While this is slower than before the 2009 financial crisis, it is above any regional peer.

Main focus areas going forward
- The Company aims to maintain a reasonable financial position that will allow it to sustain its operations and to closely follow the trend as it appears that the market shows some signs of recovery.
- The Management is proactively seeking to procure buyers through its network of contacts in Romania and abroad, and by dealing with incoming requests from interested parties.
- In addition to aiming to sell plots, the Company is seeking to add incremental value to the individual plots during the period in which they are part of the Land Bank up until a potential sale is completed. The various forms of adding value include upgrading of planning permission as well as maintenance of plot surfaces, buildings, fencing and similar.
- Management will also attempt to create income from the plots in its Land Bank by renting out to third parties for commercial use, structured in a way so it does not prevent or interfere with an eventual sale of the plots.
- The upgraded all Investor Relations (IR) procedures and planning in order to be more transparent and closer to our shareholders.
- The Management believes that more plots will be sold within the year as a result of the hardworking and dedicated sales and marketing effort in an early days improving market
