Reconstruction Capital II Limited (the "Company")
Interim Unaudited Financial Statements
for the six months ended 30 June 2017
Reconstruction Capital II Limited ("RC2", the "Company" or the
"Group"), a closed-end investment company incorporated in the
Cayman Islands admitted to trading on the AIM market of the London
Stock Exchange, today announces its results for the six months
ended 30 June 2017.
Copies of the company's interim financial statements will today
be posted to shareholders. The interim report is also available on
the Company's website http://www. reconstructioncapital2.com/.
Financial highlights
The net asset value ("NAV") as at 30 June 2017 was EUR37.5m or
EUR0.2563 per share, which represents a 30.2% fall since the
beginning of the year. This is due to the repayment of EUR17.0m to
shareholders by means of the compulsory redemption of newly-created
B Class shares. In the absence of the capital return, the NAV per
share would have been EUR0.3723 per share, reflecting a EUR1.8m
uplift from the sale of Top Factoring Group.
Operational highlights
Private Equity Programme
In the first half of 2017, RC2 sold its 93% shareholding in Top
Factoring SRL, and Glasro Holdings Limited ("Glasro"), RC2's
wholly-owned subsidiary, disposed of the whole of its
non-performing loan book, for a total consideration of
approximately EUR13.1m. In April, Glasro used EUR2.7m of the exit
proceeds to make an investment in Telecredit S.A., a Romanian
non-banking financial institution that provides consumer loans to
individuals. In May, Glasro also distributed dividends of EUR3.5m
to RC2.
In May, Policolor signed an agreement for the sale of its main
Bucharest site (where its current Romanian production plant is
located) to a Romanian real estate development company for a total
consideration of EUR22m, of which EUR11.4m was received by the end
of June, when Policolor delivered approximately half the site to
the buyer, leaving a total of EUR0.7m as advance payments for the
second half, which is due to be sold in 2019, when the balance of
EUR9.9m should be cashed.
Operationally, the Policolor Group had a decent first half of
the year, both in terms of sales and operating profitability, with
operating revenues up 9.4% year-on-year from EUR30.0m to EUR32.9m,
whilst EBITDA of EUR1.8m was better than the EUR1.0m recorded over
the same period of the previous year.
The investments held under the Private Equity Programme had a
fair value of EUR32.7m as at 30 June 2017, reflecting a 9.28%
decrease over the semester mainly due to the sale of the holding in
Top Factoring SRL.
Trading Programme
RC2 sold down part of its listed equities portfolio held under
the Trading Programme during the first half of the year, generating
cash proceeds of EUR0.1m. As at 30 June 2017, the portfolio was
valued at EUR0.1m. The investments held under the Trading Programme
are entirely in Romanian equities.
