Enquiries: Dawnay, Day Carpathian PLC Peter Klimt 020 7834 8060 Paul Rogers Cardew Group Tim Robertson 020 7930 0777 Catherine Maitland CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT Introduction I am pleased to be able to report that Dawnay, Day Carpathian plc ('Dawnay, Day Carpathian' or the 'Company') continues to make good progress since it was admitted to the AIM market in July 2005. At the time of flotation the Company raised Â£140m (before expenses) which, together with bank borrowings, will facilitate the creation of a geared â‚¬1 billion portfolio of retail properties. Our investment strategy remains focused on acquiring suitable commercial retail properties such as shopping centers, supermarkets and retail warehousing in Central and Eastern Europe and we have been successfully executing this strategy. Operational review Since July of 2005, Dawnay, Day Carpathian has rapidly established itself as a leading presence within the Central and Eastern European commercial property sector. As a result, the Company has generated a wide circle of contacts, including investors, developers and agents, through whom the Company is being presented with many suitable acquisitions. Currently we are processing a satisfactory range of suitable opportunities for inclusion in the portfolio. Our selection criteria remain robust and are based upon identifying retail assets with sustainable income, prospects for income and capital growth and for value enhancement through asset management. The current portfolio comprises of five shopping centres and one warehouse park: â€¢ Varayada Shopping Centre - Karlovy Vary, Czech Republic â€¢ Tulipan Centre - Lodz, Poland â€¢ Osowa - Gdansk, Poland â€¢ Kometa - Torun, Poland â€¢ Centrum Sosnowiec - Sosnowiec, Poland â€¢ Antana Warehouse Park - Budapest, Hungary Shortly an application will be made to redevelop the Antana Warehouse Park in Budapest, from light industrial and office units into a circa 50,000 sq m retail centre. Negotiations are commencing for the required permitting, and the exercise carried out earlier this year to canvas retail interest has received positive responses. The transfer of Dawnay, Day Group's 50% share in the four shopping centres in Hungary anticipated as part of the initial pipeline investments for the Company, is now to include the entire 100% interest in these properties. Completion of the acquisition has been delayed by tax and legal complications but is expected to complete shortly. These Hungarian assets due for completion will add a further Â£41.5 million of investment to the Company's portfolio. Financial Results During the period under review, the Company made three acquisitions for a combined total of Â£84.3 million. These assets generated net rental income for the period of Â£1.16 million, which equates to an annualised return of approximately 25% on the equity invested. The acquisitions have been funded through Â£21.2 million of equity and Â£63.1 million of debt. A re-valuation of the Company's assets by DTZ took place at the period-end and resulted in a valuation increase of Â£2.5 million. Basic earnings per share for the period were 4.8p. The administrative expenses amounted to approximately Â£701,000 for the period, which is in line with our original estimate of establishing a long-term business in a new geographical region. In line with its stated strategy, the Company paid a dividend in December 2005 of 3p per share equating to a 3% yield based upon the placing price of 100p per share. The Company is also intending to pay a 6p per share dividend for the year ending 31 December 2006. Investment Pipeline We have a strong pipeline of acquisitions. In total, the Company is in advanced due diligence on a number of substantial transactions which, once completed, will bring the Company well in line with its target acquisition plan. These transactions vary between properties in primary city centres to provincial convenience centres and range from the Baltic States, through Central and Eastern Europe to Romania and Bulgaria. In addition, the Company has a strategic agreement to acquire a roll out programme of supermarket developments, which are likely to comprise approximately Â£70 million of assets per annum over each of the next three years. Management In March 2006, Ross MacDiarmid resigned as a director of Dawnay, Day Europe Limited. Paul Rogers and Massimo Marcovecchio continue to have managerial responsibility for Dawnay, Day Europe Limited supported by an increased team of 14 members. Outlook Our focus is upon creating a superior commercial retail property portfolio. Penetration by the Company into wider property sub markets and recognition of the Dawnay, Day brand give rise to a broad range of opportunities and pricing levels. Market activity to date has seen a marked increase in transactional volumes in the territory increasing from Â£949 million in 2004 to Â£1,707 million approximately in 2005 (source: DTZ research, March 2006). The Company is confident that there are sufficient opportunities which meet its investment criteria and expects that, as previously stated, it will be substantially invested by the end of 2006 without having to compromise on the quality of its acquisitions.
