Sparkassen Immobilien AG An Investment for Life
Interim Report for the three months ended 31 March 2006
Interim report for the three months ended 31 March 2006
Dear shareholders and investors,
Sparkassen Immobilien AG made an extremely promising start to 2006: the interim report for the first quarter of the new year clearly shows that we have carried on where we left off in 2005, the most successful year in the company's history. All financial indicators are up, typically by around 50%.
We have also significantly expanded our property portfolio and now have our sights set on further dynamic growth. In accordance with our long-term strategy, which is geared towards generating sustainable and reasonable profits, this means maintaining a well-balanced property portfolio and an equity base sufficient to ensure maximum stability. Which means that we are on the right track: Sparkassen Immobilien AG recently commissioned IMAS, a respected market research institute, to survey some 506 securities owners. The results show that – faced with the choice between high yields/earnings or high levels of security – over half of respondents opted for the latter. Second most important was a well-balanced portfolio, and only then were they willing to accept significantly higher risk.
Our investors benefited from our low-risk, high quality investment strategy in the first quarter: over the last year (March 05 – March 06), s IMMO Aktie gained 8.0%, s IMMO Invest 7.5% and 6.6% (second tranche). Market capitalisation at the end of the quarter rose to EUR 819m, up 61% year on year.
A DETAILED LOOK AT THE COMPANY'S PERFORMANCE IN THE FIRST QUARTER OF 2006
Property portfolio increased by 66% — entry into Romanian market
In December 2005 we expanded into the German property market, which we see as highly attractive. We continued our investment in Germany in the first quarter of 2006. We acquired three properties with a total of 35,000 m2 lettable space: two office buildings in Munich and a large retail property in Halle on the Saale, with Metro Group as the long-term tenant. The acquisition of a 3,100 m2 plot of land in the centre of Bucharest marked our entry into the high-yield Romanian property market. In Budapest we acquired another office property with about 8,000 m2 lettable space which takes our total to about 100,000 m2
in the Hungarian capital. At 31 March 2006 total lettable space was 578,100 m2 , and the value of the portfolio rose year-on-year by 66%, to EUR 784m. The average occupancy rate was 92.9%. Currently, we are 55% invested in Austria, 38% in CEE countries (Czech Republic, Hungary, Romania and Slovakia) and 7% in Germany.
Sustainable improvements in earnings: revenues up 58%, profit up 54%
First quarter revenues were up 58% year-on-year, to EUR 16.1m. Rental income for the period was also up 57%, to EUR 12.8m. The increases are attributable to the judicious expansion of our property portfolio and the efficient management of existing portfolios in Austria, Germany and CEE countries. Operating profit (EBIT) of EUR 8.3m was at a record high, up 50% on the first quarter of 2005. Profit before tax for the period (EBT) was up 59%, to EUR 4.7m. Consolidated net profit of EUR 3.7m was up 54% on the same period last year.
We shall make every effort to ensure that these excellent results continue unabated throughout the current year by posting outstanding revenues and earnings. We intend to achieve this by promoting the dynamic growth of our portfolio. To this end, we have planned acquisitions to a value of some EUR 500m in existing investment areas in 2006. This will enable us to realise our objective of expanding our property portfolio significantly beyond the one billion euro mark this year.
Some 20,000 shareholders have already shown their trust in us, and we hope to attract further investors in the future with our low-risk investment strategy geared towards quality and long-term growth. Based on cash/earnings and net asset value (NAV) indicators, s IMMO Aktie is today one of the most attractive property shares listed on the Vienna Stock Exchange. For investors this means more property for less money.
