MANAGEMENT REPORT

Chairman’s summary

The year 2018 has been significant for Pro Kapital, with respect to reaching important milestones in the operations which in turn is demonstrated by financial performance of the Company. We have shown stable growth through our business and continue to focus on improving our results.

Pro Kapital aims to strengthen its position as one of the largest and strongest real-estate companies in the Baltics, with more than ever emphasis on all aspects of the business. I’m especially glad to highlight that in the fourth quarter of 2018, Pro Kapital opened a one of a kind shopping and entertainment centre T1 Mall of Tallinn, right at the heart of the future transportation centre of Tallinn. This new landmark will continue to grow and is expected to welcome a unique ferris wheel to be installed on the roof of the mall in early spring of 2019.

As of 19 November 2018, the Company’s shares are traded on the Nasdaq Tallinn Stock Exchange Main List. We are more than ever dedicated in building new communities and aspire sharing our story with investors as equally as with the public.

Building new communities

Our business is not merely about building houses but establishing entire communities and improving the living environment. The Company has nearly 25 years of experience identifying upcoming opportunities and thereby add new value to the areas of development. One of the most significant ongoing developments in Tallinn, the Kristiine City area, allows to expect increase in real-estate price in the entire surrounding area. We develop in multiple phases and have completed six of ten Kristina Houses, in one of the ongoing phases of the whole area. We have sold 155 new homes in five apartment buildings and completed the sixth building in December 2018 with 8 flats yet to be sold. Development of the following four Kristina Houses is currently ongoing. With active presale being carried out simultaneously to construction works, altogether 43 apartments have been presold.

Pro Kapital is in progress with projecting works for a prestigious Kalaranna residential and commercial area, right at the border of Tallinn’s old town. Kalaranna’s unique location just by the bay of Tallinn is making it as one of the most exclusive development projects in town. As a result of increasing interest towards the project, we have started with initial reservations in July 2018. Although we have not yet started the construction nor advertising, we have, to date, made 76 reservations to residential premises in Kalaranna.

In Riga, we are building Kliversala residential area which is a true sight to see in the city centre. The new living area is located right on the bank of the Daugava river on the shore of Agenskalna bay. We finished the construction works of the prestigious River Breeze Residence in spring 2018. We are currently proceeding with the sales of remaining 37 luxury apartments in the residence. Following the completion and ongoing sale of River Breeze Residence, we’re proceeding with the following phase of Kliversala, but also other development projects. Tallinas residential quarter is a modern combination of new and restored historical buildings, for which the projecting works are ongoing. Another new area development Zvaigznes Quarter, for which the projecting is ongoing at this point in time, represents a commercial property for an office complex and be built on the site of a former factory.

In Vilnius, Pro Kapital is developing a Šaltinių Namai area, bordering with and offering a stunning view from the top-hill to the historic old town. The first phase of yhe development is completed and almost sold out. In 2017 the construction works for the second stage of residential buildings, Šaltinių Namai Attico, started and 77 preliminary agreements have been already signed. Four buildings of Šaltinių Namai Attico development are expected to be completed in the middle of 2019. The Company is looking into obtaining new attractive developments in the region, to start new projects after the completion of Šaltinių Namai.

Continuous improvement in the financial results 

The completion of multiple development phases, that have proven to attract the market’s interest, is clearly demonstrated by good financial results for the reporting period. At the end of 2018, the Company recorded net revenue of 28 million euros, an increase of 99% as compared to 14.1 million euros during the same period in 2017. Revenues have increased in real estate segment due to completion of 4 apartment buildings in Tallinn and 1 in Riga as the revenues are recorded at the moment notary deed of sale is concluded. The net profit was 18 million euros, which was 18.5 million euros improvement comparing to 0.5 million euros loss during the same period in 2017. The net result was significantly influenced by increased value of investment property due to completion and opening of T1 Mall of Tallinn.
We are continuously focused on improving the efficiency. The Company is exploring opportunities to reduce financial costs by refinancing current debt instruments. We foresee stable growth in revenues and operating results during the upcoming periods.

As at the end of 2018, the Company’s overall loans from financial institutions were 83.3 million euros. The loans from the minority shareholders were 0.3 million euros. The Company had 10.2 million euros worth convertible bonds debt and 28.5 million euros worth non-convertible bonds debt.

As at 31 December 2018, there were 89 employees working in the Company, 40 of them were employed by the hotel and property maintenance business.
