30th April 2021, Road Town, Tortola, BVI
EPH European Property Holdings Ltd (�EPH) today announces audited 2020 year end results of the Group.
BUSINESS HIGHLIGHTS
- In April 2020, EPH purchased an 89.9 percent stake of the hotel property STRAL 3 in Berlin-Friedrichshain leased to NH Group Group
- In June 2020, EPH acquired 100% of the office property LASS 1 in Vienna which is undergoing full refurbishment until mid 2022
- In July 2020, EPH acquired 100% of the hotel property SALZ 4 in Dresdens historic city centre leased to Melia Hotels International
- In December 2020, EPH successfully closed the acquisition of office properties QBC 1 & QBC 2 in Quartier Belvedere in Vienna together with the parking garage QBC 7
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
- Net rental income declined from US$ 71.30 million for 2019 to US$ 60.84 for 2020. Decrease is primarily attributable to Russian properties and caused mainly by compression of US$ values of RUB-denominated revenues resulting from RUB depreciation (by 21% during the reporting period), as well as by revision of lease rates for US$-denominated leases upon prolongation of the existing leases (to bring the rates down to the current market level)
- Newly acquired properties STRAL 3 (Nhow hotel building) and SALZ 4 (Innside Melia hotel building), purchased on 2 April 2020 and 2 July 2020, accordingly, contributed US$ 3.28 million and US$1.39 million to the net rental income of the Group
- Decrease in revenue streams in Russia was compensated by the gain from sale of Arbat properties – US$ 11.68 million (US$ 3.12 million in 2019)
- US$ 85.35 million decrease in investment property valuations in US$ equivalent result of the same factors as for the income decline plus some changes in the market assumptions due to market uncertainty arising from coronavirus pandemic (gain of US$ 53.51 million in 2019). The net valuation result though is positive US$ 27.13 million as it takes into account also currency effect on valuations
- Impact of exchange rate fluctuations in the reporting period (overall positive effect of US$ 24.44 million): net foreign exchange income recognized in the income statement is partially overlapped by the negative change in CTA
