Vienna, 26 May 2009. conwert Immobilien Invest SE (Vienna Stock Exchange: CWI, Reuters: CONW.VI, Bloomberg: CWI AV) reported a strong development of operating activities in the first quarter of 2009. Despite the difficult climate caused by the financial and economic crisis, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) rose by 15% to EUR 26.93 million. This increase results primarily from the strong development of the proceeds on the sale of properties (+123% over Q1/2008) and the good development of rental income (+15%). Cash earnings also grew substantially: Funds from Operations (FFO) amounted to EUR 23.87 million (+72%). Due to a lack of revaluation gains, the operating result (EBIT) declined to EUR 24.22 million. (Q1/2008: EUR 40.82 million). As a reaction to the difficult market conditions, the optimisation of the property portfolio formed the focal point of the activities in the first quarter of 2009. Total property value amounted to EUR 2.54 billion (after EUR 2.50 billion as of end 2008).
+ Steep increase in proceeds on the sale of properties Despite the difficult environment on property investment markets, proceeds on the sale of properties rose from EUR 30.12 million in the prior year to EUR 67.32 million in the first quarter of 2009. Even in the current market environment properties were sold above IFRS book values. The related gains totalled EUR 7.83 million, while the selling margin remained high at 13.5% based on the IFRS values. Based on acquisition cost, a cash profit of EUR 13.66 million and a cash margin exceeding 25% were recorded.
The core rental business showed an increase of rental income by 15% period-on-period to EUR 39.99 million. The average rental price in the residential segment rose from EUR 4.80 to EUR 5.12 per square meter and month year-on-year. Revenues in the service segment totalled EUR 15.10 million. (+4% yoy). EUR 8.13 million were accounted for by third-party business. Revenues totalled EUR 115.44 million in the first quarter of 2009 (Q1/2008: EUR 73.16 million).
+ Positive earnings indicators and rising cash earnings Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) amounted to EUR 26.93 million (Q1/2008: EUR 23.42 million). As a result of the lack of revaluation gains, earnings before interest and tax (EBIT), at EUR 24.22 million, fell short of the prior-year figure of EUR 40.82 million. The financial results of EUR -13.57 million (Q1/2008: EUR -13.61 million), was substantially improved by positive one-off effects and low interest rates while the financing volume was higher, but was affected by the negative share of profit of ECO Business-Immobilien AG in the amount of EUR -2.45 million (following in a positive share of profit of EUR 2.17 million in the previous year). Earnings before tax (EBT) declined from EUR 27.21 million to EUR 10.65 million in the first three months of 2009. Cash earnings, which exclude non-cash effects, increased significantly. Funds from operations (FFO) totalled EUR 23.87 million (+72% on the previous year) due to high cash profits when selling and buying back convertible bonds.
+ Stable financing structure As of 31 March 2009 equity totalled EUR 1,262 million. The equity ratio equalled 42% (compared with 45% in the same period of the previous year). Net assets per share (NAV) amounted to EUR 15.39, compared with EUR 15.55 at the end of the financial year 2008. The financing volume amounted to EUR 1,545 million as of 31 March 2009. The average cash-effective interest rate equalled 4.55% including effects from hedging and 3.99% before hedging. Hedges were concluded for 76.5% of the interest-bearing liabilities to provide protection against interest ration fluctuations. With cash and cash equivalents totalling approx. EUR 82 million (12/2008: EUR 69,92 Mio.), conwert has sufficient liquidity reserves.
+ Outlook on the year 2009 Economic forecasts are still negative. A recovery of the economic situation is only expected towards the end of 2010. As forecasts were repeatedly downgraded in the past months, the extent and the end of the worldwide economic downturn can, however, not be forecast reliably. Despite this negative economic climate, conwert at present expects a largely stable development in the residential property markets at its most important locations. In the financial year 2009, the focus of strategic development remains on the further improvement of the cost and finance structure, an expansion of the service business, the sale of properties and organic growth in rental income. Arising opportunities to acquire properties will only be used very selectively. The target sales volume for the year 2009 amounts to EUR 200 million. In an unchanged market environment conwert therefore expects a positive operating development in the financial year 2009 and cash earnings (FFO), which should significantly exceed the level of 2008.
