conwert Immobilien Invest AG reports record figures in 2006

Vienna, 08.03.2007. conwert Immobilien Invest AG (Vienna Stock
Exchange: CWI, Reuters: CONW.VI, Bloomberg: CWI AV) once again
achieved record sales and profit figures in 2006. Total revenues in
2006 rose by 151% to EUR 265m. Earnings before interest and taxes
(EBIT) increased by 129% to EUR 104.42m, while earnings before taxes
(EBT) experienced a rise of 128% to EUR 77.03m. Through systematic
portfolio expansion, the value of property assets was increased by
84% to EUR 1,673m. The dynamic expansion of the property portfolio
enabled conwert to set a new record in total revenues which was
mainly due to a continuous increase in revenues from rental income as
well as a dynamic development in sales. Thus, total revenues
increased by 151% to EUR 265.00m, compared to EUR 105.37m for the
previous year. As a result of portfolio expansion, revenues from
rental income increased from EUR 37.12m to EUR 79.54m, a rise of 114%
compared to the previous year’s figures. The reasons for this steep
rise were the growth in total usable space, a general increase in
rent levels in conwert’s core markets as well as successfully
completed development projects and, as a result, new rentals of
previously vacant space. Backed up by the high demand prevailing in
the Viennese property market, sales in the previous reporting period
attained a record high of EUR 185.46m, which meant an increase of
172%. In the course of portfolio optimization, in the business
segment "Letting & Development of Older Residential Properties", 37
properties with a total value of EUR 124.84m were successfully sold
(2005: 17 properties for EUR 51.30m). In the business segment "Sale
of flats and houses", revenue from property disposals was gained
mainly through the sale of properties from the Allianz Trading
Portfolio, rising by 258% to EUR 60.63m. Altogether, conwert’s
profits from sales totaled EUR 32.04m, an increase of 174% compared
to the previous year’s figures. The profit margin (ratio of sales
from properties to the book values of properties) reached, as it did
last year, the very appealing level of 21%. Earnings before interest
and taxes (EBIT) rose by 129% to EUR 104.42m. The main reasons for
this were higher revenue from rental income, earnings from the sale
of flats and properties as well as the positive effects of fair value
adjustments. The reappraisal of properties conducted by independent
appraisers according to IAS 40 showed fair value adjustments of EUR
45.24m (2005: EUR 17.60m), corresponding to 2.7% of property assets.
The main reasons for profits from appreciation were low purchasing
prices as part of packaged deals, which enabled appreciation, as well
as increases in value and earnings from properties within the
framework of development and new rentals. Earnings before taxes
(EBT) were increased from 128% to EUR 77.03m. Net results after
minority interest rose by 110% to EUR 51.82m, although this result
was disproportionately burdened by deferred income tax on real estate
sales. Actual cash-related income tax expenditure did not accrue in
the reporting period, so that despite a significant increase in the
number of shares in the reporting period, the adapted profits per
share rose by 12% from EUR 1.29 to EUR 1.44 per share. conwert took
advantage of the positive market conditions in 2006 to expand its
property portfolio. By the end of 2006, conwert’s property portfolio
included 981 properties (2005: 598) in Austria, Germany, the Czech
Republic and Hungary. In 2006, the number of rental units rose to
15,376 (flats: 12,722), compared to 9,722 (flats: 8,375) the previous
year. Moreover, on the reporting date, the property portfolio
included 4,298 parking spaces/ garage spaces, compared to 2,068 the
previous year. Total usable space rose by 62% from 815,900 sqm at the
end of 2005 to 1,322,400 sqm, with 53 % of this space located in
Austria. Further acquisitions in Germany led to an increase in the
German share to 43% of total usable space, as compared to 40% the
previous year. The CEE-markets Czech Republic and Hungary made up 4%.
Property assets in the business year 2006 rose by 84% to EUR 1,673m.
This increase came about mainly through the acquisition of
properties, but also from investments in properties in the course of
development. 69% of property assets were made up of properties
located in Austria, most of these in Vienna. By the closing date, 27%
had been invested in Germany, although the disproportionately low
share with respect to total usable space was due to much lower set-up
costs compared to Austria. Investment in the CEE countries comprised
4% of property assets. conwert plans to continue this course of
expansion. Favorable market conditions in Austria, Germany, the Czech
Republic and Hungary will be used by the management to realize good
investment opportunities. In 2007, conwert will continue to expand
its position as market leader in the Viennese market for development
of older properties. Acquisitions of medium to large property
portfolios of institutional investors will continue to be the major
target. The internationalization which already began in 2005 will be
pushed even more in 2007. In the short to mid-term, the share of
foreign properties should be raised from 31% currently to about 50%.
Because of its low set-up costs and thus higher yields the German
market offers major opportunities for investment. In the CEE markets,
where conwert has also been active in the segment "Development of New
Properties" in 2006, there has been sustained growth. Depending on
further developments in the properties and capital markets, conwert
should be in the position to attain a total investment volume of
approx. EUR 800-1,000m in the next 12-18 months. Based on planned
investments, almost half of this will be realized in Germany,
achieved by the acquisition of larger portfolios and selected single
investments. The expansion of the properties portfolio in Austria
will comprise about a third of total investment expenditures, and
conwert’s investment program will be rounded off by investments in
existing markets in the CEE countries. This purposeful growth
strategy should lead to rising sales and profit key figures for the
current year. The Management anticipates a further rise in earnings
from rentals and sales. As earnings rise, net profits should also
rise, leading to considerably higher figures in 2006. As always, this
growth will be financed only with sufficient equity capital, on a
firm financial footing. conwert plans to finance these growth
measures - as economic and financial markets conditions allow - by
using authorized capital to again raise share capital by up to EUR
293.42m. to up to EUR 880.25m. conwert also announced changes in its
management structure to support the increasing scale and
international nature of conwert’s business. Certain of these changes
have effect immediately and certain changes will be implemented
following a change in conwert’s articles of association in the Annual
General Meeting on 4 June 2007. Günter Kerbler has retired from the
management board with immediate effect and will run for a supervisory
board mandate at the upcoming annual general meeting in June, thereby
continuing to contribute his expertise and deep knowledge of the
Austrian real estate business to conwert. The management board
thanked Günter Kerbler for his outstanding contribution to the
development of conwert since its foundation. Helmut Hardt also
retired from the management board. The supervisory board has
appointed Dr. Alexander Zartl and Andreas Nittel as management board
members with immediate effect. Dr. Zartl will be primarily
responsible for conwert’s international property activities,
especially in Germany and Hungary. Andreas Nittel will have
responsibility for asset and property management in Austria. Going
forward, it is intended that the management board will be enlarged
from its current three member-structure to a five member-structure.
The relevant change in the company’s articles of association shall be
approved by the next Annual General Meeting Johann Kowar will remain
member of the management board and will assume the role of Chief
Executive Officer.
