Summary

In a continuing difficult economic and financial environment VGP has managed to post a strong performance during the first six months of 2012.

During the first half of 2012 VGP's activities can be summarised as follows:

  • The operating activities resulted in a net profit for the period of € 6.0 million compared to a net profit of € 5.1 million (on a like for like)2 basis respectively as at 30 June 2011.
  • The balance sheet of the Group remained strong with net cash position¹ standing at € 23.3 million.
  • The lease activities resulted in the renewal or the signing of new annualised committed leases in excess of € 4.7 million in total of which € 2.3 million were new leases (€ 1.3 million on behalf of associates) and € 2.4 million (all related to associates) were related to renewals of existing lease contracts.

1 Net cash position calculated as net cash minus total bank borrowings as at 30 June 2012.

2 For comparative purposes the 30 June 2011 figures were amended to exclude the impacts of the sale of VGP CZ I and VGP CZ II during 2011 and to exclude the profit and loss impact of the sold assets of VGP Estonia which occurred in May 2012.

  • The occupancy rate of the wholly owned portfolio was 93.1% at the end of June 2012. The occupancy rate of the associates portfolio stood at 97.5%.
  • Following the divestment of the Estonian assets the investment property portfolio consists of 4 completed buildings representing 54,100 m² of lettable area with another 6 buildings under construction representing 58,868 m² of lettable area.
  • Besides this VGP partially owns through its associates another 53 buildings which represent 590,384 m² of lettable area and for which property and facility management services are provided by the VGP Group.
  • VGP has also undertaken additional development activities on behalf of its associates by which it is currently constructing 2 new buildings (8,500 m²) for VGP CZ I and 2 buildings (16,600 m²) for VGP CZ II.
  • The net valuation of the property portfolio as at 30 June 2012 showed a net valuation gain of € 5.5 million against an net valuation gain of € 6.1 million per 30 June 2011.
  • As at 30 June 2011 the financial income continued to benefit from the interest income on loans made available to associates which resulted in a net financial income of € 1.2 million as at 30 June 2012 against a net financial expense of € 2.7 million as at 30 June 2011.
  • The Extraordinary Shareholders' Meeting of 11 May 2011, approved the proposed capital reduction in cash of € 15,052,270.50 (€ 0.81 per share). The payment of the capital reduction took place on 6 August 2012.

Gross rental income (on a like for like basis) up 16.2% to EUR 1.6 million

The increase of gross rental income reflects the full impact of the income generating assets delivered during 2012, the deconsolidation of VGP CZ I and VGP CZ II in 2011 and the impact of the sale of the Estonian assets .

Lease contracts signed during 2012 amount to € 4.7 million

During the first half of 2012, VGP was able to sign new annualised committed leases in excess of € 4.7 million1 in total of which € 2.3 million2 related to new lettable area and € 2.4 million3 to the renewal of existing leases.

The Group's property portfolio reached an occupancy rate of 93.1% at the end of June 2012. The occupancy rate in the associate companies decreased slightly to 97.5%.

The signed committed lease agreements (excluding the associates) represent a total of 112,968 m² of lettable area with the weighted average term of the committed leases standing at 9.3 years at the end of June 2012.

1 € 3.7 million related to VGP CZ I and VGP CZ II

2 € 1.3 million related to VGP CZ I and VGP CZ II

3 € 2.4 million related to VGP CZ I and VGP CZ II

Net valuation on the property portfolio reaches € 5.5 million

The net valuation of the property portfolio as at 30 June 2012 shows a net valuation gain of € 5.5 milion against a net valuation gain of € 6.1 million per 30 June 2011.

The net valuation as at 30 June 2012 consists of an € 5.3 million unrealised gain on the existing completed projects and projects under construction and a net realised valuation gain of € 0.3 million mainly resulting from the disposal of the VGP Estonia assets and the disposal of VGP CZ IV a.s. which took place during the first half of 2012.

Net financial income amounts to € 1.2 million

As at 30 June 2012 the financial income reflected the full benefit of the interest income on loans made available to associates which resulted in a financial income of € 1.8 million as at 30 June 2012 compared to € 1.1 million as at 30 June 2011. The financial expenses significantly decreased to € 0.6 million as at the end June 2012 from € 3.9 million at the end of June 2011. This decrease was driven by the full impact of the repayment of loans received from associates in 2011 and repaid by VGP in 2011 and the reduction in bank debt.

Loans to associates grew slightly from € 45.3 million as at 31 December 2011 to € 46.9 million as at 30 June 2012. Bank debt decreased to € 12.3 million at the end of June 2012 compared to € 15.2 million at the end of December 2011.

Evolution of the property portfolio

The fair value of the investment property and the investment property under construction (the "property portfolio") as at 30 June 2012 increased with 19.5% to € 85.6 million compared to € 71.6 million as at 31 December 2011.

The evolution of the yields remained stable with the average yield applied for valuing the property portfolio improving marginally from 8.35% at the end of December 2011 to 8.31%1 at the end of June 2012.

Completed projects

During the first half year 4 building were completed.

For its own account VGP delivered 2 buildings i.e. 1 building of 12,856 m² at VGP Park Hradek nad Nisou (Czech Republic) and one building of 12,789 m² at VGP Park Tallinn subsequently sold through the VGP Estonia transaction. Both buildings are fully leased.

For the account of its associates VGP delivered another 2 buildings i.e. 1 building of 3,092 m² at VGP Park Horni Pocernice and 1 building of 13,056 m² at VGP Park Turnov. Both buildings are fully leased

1 Yields applied to the total VGP portfolio including the associate companies. If the associates would not have been included the yields would have been 8.85% as at the end of June 2012 compared to 8.55% at the end of December 2011.

The Group has currently a total of 4 completed buildings (54,100 m²) in its investment portfolio with another 53 buildings (590,384 m²) under management.

The new buildings under construction on which 50% pre-leases have already been signed, represent a total future lettable area of 58,868 m² which corresponds to an estimated annualised rent income of € 2.9 million.

On behalf of its associates VGP is constructing 4 new buildings: 2 new buildings in VGP Park Horni Pocernice and 1 building in each of VGP Park Hradec Králové, and VGP Park Nýřany.

Land bank

During the first half of 2012 145,598 m² of new development land located in the Czech Republic was acquired.

VGP has currently a land bank in full ownership of 1,319,587 m². The land bank allows VGP to develop besides the current projects under construction a further 165,000 of lettable area within the Czech Republic and 204,000m² of lettable area outside the Czech Republic.

Besides this VGP is currently looking at or has under option, subject to permits, another 400,000 m² of new plots allowing to develop approx. 170,000 m² of new projects.

(EPISO), a property fund co-advised by AEW Europe and Tristan Capital Partners.

The increase in the financial debt during the first half of 2012 was due to additional drawings on existing and new credit facilities in Slovakia and Hungary.

The "Loan to Value"1 ratio on a consolidated basis stands at 22.6% at the end of June 2012 compared to 27.2% as at 31 December 2011.

The Group was debt free and showed a net cash position2 of € 23.3 million at the end of June 2012.

Risk Factors

The overview of the most significant risks to which the VGP Group is exposed to can be found on page 30 to 31 of the Annual Report 2011. These risks remain actual and valid and will continue to apply for the remainder of the financial year.

Outlook 2012

With the continuing difficult economic conditions and the adverse spill-over effects of the slowing down of the German economy on the Czech market, VGP will continue with a prudent development strategy during the Second half of 2012. VGP, nevertheless, expects to post sound results for the second half of the year.

¹ Capital reserve relates to the elimination of the contribution in kind of the shares of a number of Group companies and the deduction of all costs in relation to the issuing of the new shares and the stock exchange listing of the existing shares from the equity of the company, at the time of the initial public offering ("IPO").

The 30 June 2012 statement of changes in equity has been modified to show the impact on the statutory share capital and consolidated share capital after taking the capital reserve into consideration.

Until the statutory share capital is equal to the IFRS share capital any capital reduction will be first set off against the capital reserve and will therefore not give rise to a change in the consolidated IFRS share capital but will give rise to a reduction in the consolidated IFRS retained earnings.

For comparative purposes the 31 December 2011 financials figures have been restated.

6. NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the period ended 30 June 2012

1 Basis of preparation

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting", as adopted by the European Union.

During the interim period there was one new company acquired and included in the consolidation perimeter of the VGP Group and one company left the consolidation perimeter of the VGP Group.

2 Significant accounting policies

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements are prepared on a historic cost basis, with the exception of investment properties and investment property under construction as well as financial derivatives which are stated at fair value. All figures are in thousands of Euros (EUR '000).

The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group's annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2011.

The condensed consolidated financial information was approved for issue on 22 August 2012 by the Board of Directors.

3 Segment information

A segment is a distinguishable component of the Group that is engaged either in providing products or services (business segment), or in providing products or services within a particular economic area (geographic segment) and which is subject to risks and rewards that are different from those of other segments. As the majority of the assets of the Group are geographically located in the Czech Republic a distinction between the Czech Republic and the other countries ("Other countries") has been made. The segment assets include all items directly attributable to the segment as well as those elements that can reasonably be allocated to a segment (financial assets and income tax receivables are therefore part of segment assets). Unallocated amounts include the administrative costs incurred for the Group's supporting functions. All rent income is coming from semi-industrial buildings. There is no risk concentration in terms of income contribution from a single tenant. The unallocated assets relate to outstanding receivables of VGP NV to associates (€ 53.4 million) and cash and cash equivalents of VGP NV (€ 34.4 million).

AUDITOR'S REPORT

VGP NV

LIMITED REVIEW REPORT ON THE CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION FOR THE SIX MONTHS PERIOD ENDED 30 JUNE 2012

To the board of directors

We have performed a limited review of the accompanying consolidated condensed balance sheet, condensed income statement, condensed statement of comprehensive income, condensed cash flow statement, condensed statement of changes in equity and selective notes 6.1 to 6.15 (jointly the "interim financial information") of VGP NV ("the company") and its subsidiaries (jointly "the group") for the six-month period ended 30 June 2012. The board of directors of the company is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of this interim financial information. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.

The interim financial information has been prepared in accordance with international financial reporting standard IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting as adopted by the European Union.

Our limited review of the interim financial information was conducted in accordance with international standard ISRE 2410 – Review of interim financial information performed by the independent auditor of the entity. A limited review consists of making inquiries of group management and applying analytical and other review procedures to the interim financial information and underlying financial data. A limited review is substantially less in scope than an audit performed in accordance with the International Standards on Auditing (ISA). Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion on the interim financial information.

Based on our limited review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim financial information for the six-month period ended 30 June 2012 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting as adopted by the European Union.
