Company Announcement No 1 2018/19

The Supervisory Board of Investeringsselskabet Luxor A/S has today considered and adopted the Compa-ny's Annual Report for 2017/18.

The Annual Report:

  • Basic earnings amount to DKK 27.1 million (DKK 24.9 million), which is higher than the expected basic earnings level of approx. DKK 24.9 million stated in the Interim Report of 27 August 2018.

    The higher basic earnings are primarily attributable to an increase in net yield on mortgage deeds and bad debts recovered.

  • The Group's profit before tax amounts to DKK 29.6 million (DKK 27.4 million). The Group's profit after tax amounts to DKK 23.3 million (DKK 20.9 million).

    The Group's profit before tax is DKK 2.5 million higher than basic earnings due to:

    • DKK 1.8 million from fair value adjustments etc of investment properties;

    • DKK 0.8 million from fair value adjustments of interest swaps and fair value adjustments of debt to mortgage credit institutes;

    • DKK -0.1 million from fair value adjustments of securities as well as realised gains on bonds and shares.

Dividend:

  • The Supervisory Board proposes to the General Meeting that dividend of DKK 23 million (DKK 22 mil-lion) be distributed, corresponding to DKK 23 (DKK 22) per share, which is a payout ratio of 98.6% and a dividend yield of 5.4%.

Fourth quarter of the financial year 2018:

  • Basic earnings for the quarter amount to DKK 8.7 million (DKK 6.0 million).

  • The Group's profit before tax amounts to DKK 13.8 million (DKK 4.9 million).

    The Group's profit before tax is DKK 5.1 million higher than basic earnings due to:

    • DKK 2.3 million from fair value adjustments of interest swaps and fair value adjustments of debt to mortgage credit institutes;

    • DKK 1.8 million from fair value adjustments etc of investment properties;

    • DKK 1.0 million from fair value adjustments of securities as well as realised gains/losses on bonds and shares.

Expected basic earnings for 2018/19:

  • For the coming financial year 2018/19, basic earnings of approx. DKK 28 million are expected.

  • Fair value adjustments of interest swaps are not included in basic earnings and would at 6 December 2018 affect the Group's profit before tax by DKK -2.3 million.

The Group's basic earnings amount to DKK 27.1 million (DKK 24.9 million), which is higher than the ex-pected basic earnings level of approx. DKK 24.9 million stated in the Interim Report of 27 August 2018. The higher basic earnings are primarily attributable to increased net yield on mortgage deeds and bad debts re-covered.

The profit for the year before tax is DKK 2.5 million higher than basic earnings due to:

  • DKK 1.8 million from fair value adjustments etc of investment properties;

  • DKK 0.8 million from fair value adjustments of interest swaps and fair value adjustments of debt to mortgage credit institutes;

  • DKK -0.1 million from fair value adjustments of securities as well as realised gains on bonds and shares.

The fair value of the Group's portfolio of mortgage deeds amounts to DKK 645.1 million (DKK 622.6 mil-lion), and the nominal value amounts to DKK 713.9 million (DKK 699.6 million).

The fair value of the Group's portfolio of mortgage deeds is distributed with DKK 479.1 million (DKK 452.3 million) in fixed-interest mortgage deeds and DKK 166.0 million (DKK 170.3 million) in floating-rate cibor mortgage deeds.

Fixed-interest mortgage deeds of a nominal amount of DKK 482.8 million are measured in the balance sheet at fair value on the basis of an effective interest rate of 8.5% p.a. (average 8.5% p.a.). Fixed-interest mort-gage deeds of a nominal amount of DKK 40.1 million and cibor mortgage deeds of a nominal amount of DKK 191.0 million are measured at fair value, which substantially corresponds to the cost of the mortgage deeds. At the measurement of the portfolio of mortgage deeds at fair value, adjustment for credit risk has been deducted.

The Group's portfolio of mortgage deeds has an average market value per mortgage deed of kDKK 295.3 (kDKK 285.6).

The nominal amount of the mortgage deed portfolio has increased from DKK 699.6 million to DKK 713.9 million. The increase consists of additions of DKK 166.9 million (DKK 185.8 million) and redemptions of DKK 152.6 million (DKK 116.9 million). The addition of mortgage deeds in the financial year primarily consists of specific mortgage deeds purchased on the basis of an individual assessment.

The rate of redemption of mortgage deeds in the financial year 2017/18 is higher than in the financial year 2016/17. For the coming year, the Group expects a small net increase in the portfolio of mortgage deeds and lower premature repayments than in 2017/18.

Capital gains on redeemed mortgage deeds amount to DKK 7.2 million (DKK 8.5 million). The lower capital gains primarily relate to the composition of the cost of the redeemed mortgage deeds.

Net loss/gain, mortgage deeds amounts to DKK -5.9 million (DKK -7.1 million).

Net loss/gain, mortgage deeds includes:

  • realised net losses on mortgage deeds and mortgage deed receivables of DKK 12.4 million (DKK 12.1 million), including adjustment to meet credit risk on mortgage deeds, properties acquired for the purpose of resale and mortgage deed receivables, which is in line with expectations;

  • bad debts recovered of DKK 6.5 million (DKK 5.0 million), which is higher than expected.
