COMMENTARY
Fairvest is a property investment holding company with investments in
commercial and retail properties in South Africa. Its short-term
investment strategy is to create a property portfolio of significant
critical mass through acquisition of quality, high-yielding
properties. Accordingly, investment opportunities are being evaluated
for acquisition on an on-going basis.
Review of results
The group continued to produce pleasing results. Revenue and trading
profits declined primarily as a result of the disposal of Nedbank
Circle and Mangrove Beach Centre properties in the 2008 financial year
and the disposal of Kempton City and Broadway Nordic properties in the
period under review.
No profit is attributable to ordinary shareholders as the Debenture
Trust Deed states that 99.9% of profits are attributable to debenture
holders. As a result the benefit of improved trading performance is
expensed in the income statement as a fair value adjustment to
debentures and debenture interest. In the period under review, the
fair value adjustment to debentures and interest on debentures equates
to 3.5 cents per share.
The property portfolio under management decreased from R107.7 million
to R59.0 million as Kempton City and Broadway Nordic properties were
sold during the period under review. The receipt of proceeds from the
sale of these properties enabled Fairvest to settle all outstanding
property debt financing and resulted in a significant improvement in
cash and cash equivalents from R10.5 million to R42.3 million.
The net asset value per linked unit increased marginally from 138.4
cents to 142.0 cents in the six month period.
The strong balance sheet of the group has well positioned it to take
advantage of opportunities that may arise in the present uncertain
economic conditions.
Interest distributions
Interest on debentures has been calculated in terms of the Debenture
Trust Deed, however, in line with the company`s policy, no interest
distributions or dividends have been declared for the period under
review in respect of the linked units.
Directorate
The board is pleased to confirm the appointment of Ms Karen Peter as
its Financial Director effective 27 October 2008, as announced on SENS
on 28 October 2008.
