Société de la Tour Eiffel 9th November 2011

Stable rental income on a like-for-like basis

The company's consolidated turnover for the first three quarters 2011 amounted to € 61.9M, compared to € 65.9M for the corresponding period 2010, of which rents represented respectively € 52.2M and € 54.9M.

This rental outcome results principally from a combination of property disposals during the said period (-€ 3.1M of rents) and the extinction of an interim rent pertaining to a property destined for redevelopment invoiced in early 2010 (-€ 0.7M), set against rents received on newly delivered properties (+€ 0.7M), net relettings (+€ 0.1M) and indexation on the passing rents (+€ 0.3M).

Setting aside disposals and short-term lease adjustment, rents show an increase of 2%. Recently delivered new developments, currently being marketed, represent potential additional annual rent of € 4.2M.

Consolidated turnover

Operational highlights for the third quarter:

  • 20,000 m² of new lettings and lease renewals representing € 1.5M of annual rents;
  • the sale of the Viseo office building in Grenoble for € 19.5M and the assignment of 2 parcels of land in the Massy Ampère development for € 2M. As at 30th September, disposals since the beginning of the year amounted to € 24.5M with a further d € 19M being under contract;
  • development activity comprised 7.700 m² of new energy-efficient, labeled offices (€ 27M of investment financed in 2011) : 5.500 m² being speculative in Montrouge and 2.200 m² in the Parc Eiffel Moulin à Vent in Lyon secured on a long lease.

As a further illustration of business activity resilience, both the physical and financial occupancy rates of the core portfolio showed improvement as at the 31st of September relative to the preceding year (adjustment being made for the Paris Charonne property, which was vacant pending sale) at respectively 87.9% (85.9%) and 88.1% (86%). This trend looks set to continue in the light of significant lettings in hand and which are expected to boost the financial occupancy rate to in excess of 90% by year end.
