Reconstruction Capital II Limited (the "Company")
Interim Unaudited Financial Statements
for the six months ended 30 June 2022
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 2022.
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
On 30 June 2022, Reconstruction Capital II Limited ("RC2") had a
total unaudited net asset value ("NAV") of EUR26.5m or EUR0.1955
per share, which represents a 0.83% fall since the beginning of the
year.
As at 30 June 2022, RC2 and its subsidiary, RC2 (Cyprus) Ltd had
cash and cash equivalents of approximately EUR0.05m and receivables
of EUR0.02m. As at 30 June 2022, RC2 had liabilities of
EUR0.09m.
Operational highlights
Whilst Romania and Bulgaria continued to achieve strong
year-on-year GDP growth of 6.4% and 4.0%, respectively, during the
first quarter of 2022, the outbreak of war in neighbouring Ukraine
at the end of February generated supply chain disruptions and
exacerbated food and energy price increases. Consequently,
inflationary pressures intensified in both countries, eroding the
purchasing power of consumers, and adding additional pressure on
companies' profitability margins as the prices of raw materials and
utilities experienced sharp increases. At the end of June, the
annual inflation rate reached 15.1% in Romania, and 16.9% in
Bulgaria.
The Policolor Group generated operating revenues of EUR45.2m
over the first six months, slightly above budget and 8.8% above the
EUR41.5m achieved during the same period last year. Coatings sales
of EUR25.3m were 4.2% above the same period last year, but 8.0%
below budget, mainly due to weak market demand due to
cost-of-living pressures on consumers. Sales of anhydrides reached
EUR6.0m, below the budgeted EUR6.7m, whilst resins sales of
EUR16.9m were 29.2% above last year, and 20.0% above budget, driven
by high market prices for resins and strong demand from customers.
Driven mainly by the coatings business' gross margin
underperforming the budget due to difficulties in passing on raw
material price increases to customers, the Group's recurring
six-month EBITDA came in at EUR 1.8m, significantly below both last
year's result and the budget target of EUR3.1m
Mamaia Resort Hotels reported excellent results for the first
semester of 2022, significantly overperforming both its budget and
last year's performance. Operating revenues came in at EUR1.7m,
112.7% above budget and 55.3% higher year-on-year, driven by a
better occupancy rate due to the Hotel securing some long-term
group occupancy contracts which started in the off-season months.
The six-month EBITDA of EUR0.3m compares to a budgeted EBITDA loss
of EUR-0.3m, mainly due to the higher revenues.
Telecredit continued its strong growth during the second
quarter, having deployed EUR 11.1m in financing products to small
and medium-sized enterprises over the first semester, 16.1% above
budget and 70.7% higher year-on-year. The company generated an
Operating Profit before Depreciation and Interest Expense of
EUR383,000 over the period, 38.3% above budget and 176.0% above the
result achieved during the same period of 2021.
At the end of June, RC2 and RC2 (Cyprus) Ltd had cash and cash
equivalents of EUR0.2m, receivables of EUR0.1m, and short-term
liabilities of EUR0.1m.
