MANAGEMENT REPORT
CEO review
During the first quarter of 2018 Pro Kapital continued construction works of the new T1 Mall of Tallinn shopping and entertainment centre in Tallinn, which is the Company´s largest single-object development project. Active negotiations with several local and international retail operators were carried on. The Company continued residential development activities in Kristiine City in Tallinn, in Kliversala in Riga and Šaltinių Namai in Vilnius.
In Tallinn, Kristiine City, the Company has completed four apartment buildings where 119 apartments out of 124 have been handed over to the clients. Next three buildings are under construction. Presale has been continuing for all three buildings with 26 apartments presold in the fifth, 14 apartments presold in the sixth and 13 apartments presold in the seventh building at the moment of publishing current interim report. Each building will have 31 apartments.
In Riga, the construction works of River Breeze Residence in Kliversala project were continued and the building was completed at the end of April. 4 luxury apartments have been handed over to the clients and 4 will be handed over in the nearest weeks. 39 apartments are available for sale. Many negotiations are in process with potential new buyers. The projecting works were continued also for Tallinas Residential Complex and for the first stage of office complex in Zvaigznes Quarter.
In Vilnius the first stage of Šaltinių Namai development has been almost sold. Last year the construction works for the second stage residential buildings started and 72 preliminary agreements have been already signed. Four buildings of the second stage should be completed in the middle of 2019. Our Vilnius real estate portfolio has no further projects for development after completion of Šaltinių Namai project, therefor the Company is seeking for obtaining attractive developments in the region.
At the end of reporting period the Company recorded net revenue of 6.8 million euros, an increase of 121% as compared to 3.1 million euros in the same period in 2017. Revenues have increased in real estate segment. This segment is influenced by time of completion of the buildings as revenues are recorded at the moment notary deed of sale is concluded. The net result remained negative due to high financial costs, though recorded net loss of 0.1 million euros for the first three months in 2018 was 92% lower as compared to 1.4 million euros loss during the same period in 2017. The Company is working on increasing its efficiency and results are improving. For 2018 we foresee a positive year end result, which is influenced by completion of residential real estate developments in Tallinn and in Riga and opening of T1 Mall of Tallinn.
Overall loans from financial institutions were 35.7 million euros as at 31 March 2018. The loans from minority shareholders were 0.3 million euros. The Company had 10.2 million euros worth convertible bonds debt and 28.9 million euros worth non-convertible bonds debt at the end of reporting date.
As at 31 March 2018 there were 84 employees working in the Company, 45 of them were employed in the hotel and property maintenance business.
