At the meeting Managing Director Philip Leech made the following statement: 'We continue to perform strongly and to deliver on our promises to shareholders, increasing our activity levels and expanding our portfolio. This was highlighted in our recent results where we again increased the Triple Net Asset Value (TNAV) of the Group, this time by over 20% to 48.06p per share. We also lifted the total dividend for the year to 1.2p per share from 0.8p in 2004 to reward shareholders for their support and reflect the performance of the Group. The Bank of Scotland acknowledged our accomplishment when it named Terrace Hill the best performing Scottish listed company in February, for showing an 11% total shareholder return (a measure of the return to an investor in terms of both share price growth and dividend yield). 'Encouragingly and as reported in February, we have enlarged our development programme to around £900m from £600m in 2004, acquiring a number of new properties and sites, both commercial and residential. These are at various stages of development and include income producing assets with redevelopment potential, such as the Castle Gate House in Sheffield, which we acquired in a joint venture for £7.3m. Currently let to retailer BHS, our aim is to develop a mixed use scheme including retail, residential, health and fitness. 'Since the results we have contracted to develop a new 160,000 sq ft campus for Gateshead College on Baltic Business Quarter in Tyne & Wear. This will stand on the corner of Hawks Road and Quarryfield Road and marks an exciting start to the 1.5m sq ft scheme. Construction began in February and is expected to be completed by late 2007. 'While we are focused on seeking acquisition opportunities to further increase our development programme, we also continue to explore other means of building the business, as highlighted by the establishment of our property fund management division in 2005. We are also considering spinning out the house building operation, which we believe could create increased value for our shareholders. 'I believe that our flexible and opportunistic approach to market trends together with our highly experienced, regionally based management teams will take Terrace Hill to new heights. With a target internal rate of return of 20-25% per annum, we look forward to further rewarding shareholders and remain confident that 2006 will meet all our expectations.' * * ENDS * * For further information please contact: Philip Leech, Group Managing Director Tel: 01642 243444 Alasdair Robinson, Noble & Company Limited Tel: 0131 225 9677 Isabel Crossley, St Brides Media & Finance Ltd Tel: 020 7242 4477 Notes to editors: Terrace Hill Group PLC is an AIM traded Property Group with NAV £76 million and market capitalisation around £105.78m (based on mid share price on 9 March 2006 of 56.4p).
