The quality of the company's properties and the healthy state of the markets has meant that the average occupancy of the rental properties reached 98.3% in December 2006, surpassing the 97.5% level reached in December 2005 which already seemed unbeatable based on past history.
The valuation on 31 December 2006 appraises the company's properties at E7,245 M (E1,151 M more than in 2005), 83% of which are rental properties and the remaining 17% development properties. In like for like terms, the value of the properties has increased by 15.7% over the previous year.
The NAV per share is E59.28, 31% higher than in December 2005.
Investments for the year just past came to E670 M (E521 M used for property acquisition and asset development projects, and E149 M for development and land).
The breakdown of the investments continues to reflect the company's commitment to focusing on the most stable property business with recurring generation of profits.
