EfTEN United Property Fund Reports Robust Growth in Q2 2025
Outstanding Financial Performance in H1 2025
EfTEN United Property Fund has shown remarkable improvement in its financial results for the first half of 2025. The fund's performance is attributed to a fully invested portfolio that has proved to be beneficial in driving growth. Notably, the property development investment in its subsidiary has successfully reached a significant milestone, where the handing over of completed terraced and semi-detached houses to customers is currently underway. This progress at the Uus-Järveküla development has resulted in the fund achieving a profit increase of over four times compared to the previous year's same period.
Second Quarter Highlights
During the second quarter of 2025, EfTEN United Property Fund generated a substantial net profit of EUR 976 thousand, which is a stark contrast to the EUR 307 thousand earned in Q2 of the previous year. The fund's income dramatically rose from EUR 355 thousand to EUR 1,022 thousand, while costs remained relatively stable with an insignificant decrease of EUR 2 thousand year-over-year. As of mid-year, the fund's total assets reached EUR 27,742 thousand, up from EUR 27,478 thousand at the end of December 2024.
Success in Ongoing Developments
The ongoing Uus-Järveküla residential district development is progressing efficiently. Not only have the second and third phases, comprising a total of 47 houses, been successfully completed, but construction has also commenced on the final stage of development, with plans for 32 additional terraced houses. By the end of June, a staggering 82% of the development volume, which includes 165 units, had already been sold or reserved by prospective buyers. Just five terraced houses remain unsold, indicating a strong market demand.
Interest Costs Diminishing
Another factor contributing to the fund's solid profitability is the reduction in interest costs. As of late June, the average loan interest rate across the fund's operational subsidiaries dropped to 4.0%, a decline of 140 basis points since the end of 2024. This reduction is primarily due to the favorable outcomes from recent EURIBOR changes coupled with advantageous bank loan arrangements specifically related to the Uus-Järveküla development.
Future Cash Distributions
Looking ahead to the latter half of 2025, the fund is positioned to issue additional cash distributions, bolstered by the income generated from the owner loan associated with the Kristiine shopping center. Interestingly, the visitor numbers at Kristiine remained stable compared to the same time last year, yet tenant turnover increased by 4%, indicating a healthy performance for the center. Furthermore, rental income and EBITDA both exceeded initial acquisition forecasts by 3% and 5%, respectively.
Financial Position Overview
The financial outlook remains promising with cautious optimism regarding potential distributions from both EfTEN Real Estate Fund 5 and the interest accrued on the owner loan of the Invego Uus-Järveküla OÜ. The development entity has repaid its entire bank loan balance, leaving it with a cash surplus of over 2 million euros at the close of June 2025. This information reflects a solid financial foundation for continuing operations and fulfilling investor expectations.
