CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

 

Introduction

 

We are pleased to announce the half year results for Aseana Properties Limited ("Aseana") and its group of companies ("the Group") for the six months ended 30 June 2011. In the year to date, there was a small diverging trend between the Malaysian and Vietnamese property markets. Whilst the Malaysian property market has enjoyed a fairly robust recovery from the trough in 2009, the Vietnamese property market continues on a slow path to recovery. It is anticipated that the recent global events led by the European sovereign debt issue and downgrade of the US credit rating by Standard & Poor's may weigh on investor confidence in the short term. These global uncertainties affirm Aseana's conservative strategy of balancing the management of near term risks and investing in the future growth of the Company. Maintaining a strong balance sheet and liquidity will be key priorities for Aseana in the near term.

 

Amidst these uncertainties, we are pleased to note that Aseana has recorded positive results for the six months ended 30 June 2011. In particular, the completion of SENI Mont' Kiara Phase 1 demonstrates the Company's ability to complete a large scale development over a period of challenging business conditions.

 

 

Results

 

For the six months ended 30 June 2011, the Group recorded revenue of US$189.67 million (H1 2010: US$2.35 million) and a net profit for the period of US$6.89 million (H1 2010: loss of US$13.33 million).

 

For the period under review, the revenue and profit were mainly derived from SENI Mont' Kiara Phase 1 following its completion and issuance of certificate of occupation in April 2011.

 

Net asset value for the Group has improved to US$200.52 million (31 December 2010: US$192.87 million) or US$0.943 per share (31 December 2010: US$0.904).

Malaysia

 

In April 2011, the Group completed the construction of SENI Mont' Kiara Phase 1 consisting of 325 units of luxury condominiums. The completion of these units has contributed positively to the results of the Group for the period under review. Phase 2 of SENI Mont' Kiara is expected to be completed in September 2011. Approximately US$63.31 million of deferred revenue currently on the balance sheet of the Group is expected to be recognised as revenue in the income statement upon its completion. The Manager has put in place various marketing plans for the remaining units at SENI Mont' Kiara.

 

In January 2011, the Company announced its withdrawal from an option to acquire a piece of development land in Mont' Kiara, Kuala Lumpur known as the TM Mont' Kiara Commercial Development. Aseana's withdrawal was due to uncertainty in receiving the necessary approvals from the relevant authorities.

 

The remaining half of the year will be a busy period for Aseana as we work on completing the final phase of SENI Mont' Kiara as well as the retail mall and Four Points by Sheraton Hotel in Sandakan Harbour Square. Development planning for the KLCC Kia Peng Residential Project is also in full swing and we expect to launch the sales of the project in early 2012.

 

 

Vietnam

 

In May 2011, Aseana announced that it had mutually agreed with Prudential Property Investment Management (Singapore) Pte Ltd ("PRUPIM Singapore") to terminate the conditional agreement to sell a 49% stake in its wholly-owned subsidiary, ASPL PV Limited to the PRUPIM Vietnam Property Fund in respect of the Tan Thuan Dong residential development in Ho Chi Minh City. The decision to terminate the agreement was due to unforeseen delays in fulfilling the conditions of the agreement, which resulted in delays to the development timetable that did not meet with PRUPIM Vietnam Property Fund's investment criteria. These conditions were initially expected to be fulfilled by the end of 2010, but are now expected in Q3 2011. However, the exit by PRUPIM Vietnam Property Fund does not affect the commercial feasibility of the development nor the ability of Aseana and Nam Long Investment Corporation ("Nam Long") to complete the development as planned. Aseana will continue the partnership with Nam Long to develop the residential project on a 80:20 basis.

 

In April 2011, Aseana entered into a conditional agreement to develop a residential project on a 56,212 sq m parcel of land in District 9 of Ho Chi Minh City, known as Phuoc Long B. The project, consisting of 37 villas and 460 apartment units, will be developed by Aseana and Nam Long on a 55:45 basis. The project is located in a sought after and established residential area with a river frontage. The planning and licensing process is currently underway with construction expected to begin in the fourth quarter of 2011.

 

Aseana continues to make good progress on its City International Hospital development in the International Hi-Tech Healthcare Park, Ho Chi Minh City. Construction has now reached the fifth storey of the nine-storey building and is on course for completion by the end of 2012. Depending on market conditions, the Company is looking to launch the sales of first phase of the residential component of the project in early 2012.

DEVELOPMENT MANAGER'S REVIEW

Malaysia Economic Update

 

The growth of the Malaysian economy moderated to 4.0% in the second quarter (Q1 2011: 4.9%). Overall growth continued to be supported by the sustained expansion of private domestic demand and strong exports of commodities and resource-based products. However, weakness in the advanced economies and the disruptions in the global manufacturing supply chain stemming from the disaster in Japan, were reflected in the slowdown in the manufacturing sector. The Government's growth forecast for 2011 remain unchanged at 5.0 to 6.0%.

 

In October 2010, the Government launched the Economic Transformation Programme ("ETP"), which includes 131 high impact entry point projects across 12 national key economic areas, which will lead Malaysia towards achieving a high-income nation status with a per capita income of US$15,000 and create more than 3.3 million new jobs throughout the country by 2020. To date, 87 projects with total investment of US$56.2 billion, aimed at contributing an additional US$72.9 billion to the Gross National Income, have commenced.

 

The Consumer Price Index increased to 3.5% in June 2011 (May 2011: 3.2%), mainly due to the increase in food prices, housing and utilities.

 

As the economy continues to grow at a modest pace with the risk of rising inflation, the Central Bank of Malaysia raised its overnight policy rate by 25 basis points to 3% in May 2011. The statutory reserve requirement was also increased three times during the period under review, from 1 to 4%, as a pre-emptive measure to manage the risk of liquidity build-up in the market.

 

Reflecting the ongoing uncertainties in global and regional economic outlook and concerns over rising inflation, the Consumer Sentiment Index and Business Conditions Index, as measured by the Malaysian Institute of Economic Research in Q2 2011 remains largely unchanged at 107.9 points (Q1 2011: 108.2 points) and 114.0 points (Q1 2011: 113.3 points) respectively.

 

 

Overview of Property Market in Klang Valley, Malaysia

 

Offices

 

Total supply of office space in the Klang Valley increased by 1.108 million sq ft to 92.092 million sq ft in Q2 2011 due to the completion of seven new office buildings and adjustments made to some existing buildings.

In Q2 2011, the average occupancy rate of office space in the Klang Valley remained stable at 82%.

Market prices remained stable. Two en-bloc office transactions were recorded during Q2 2011: (i) Wisma Goldhill (Prime A office tower) was sold at a price of RM174.5 million (RM646 psf); (ii) Bangsar South (Prime B office tower) was sold for RM36.0 million (RM780 psf).

 

Retail

Market prices and rental rates of retail centres in the Klang Valley remained stable in Q2 2011.

Overall occupancy rate of Klang Valley retail centres increased slightly from 82.8% in Q1 2011 to 83.0% in Q2 2011.

 

Residential

Market prices and rentals were generally stable during the quarter.

Average occupancy rate for condominiums was at 85% in Q2 2011.

Tower B of Kiaramas Danai (137 units) located on Jalan Desa Kiara, Mont' Kiara launched in Q3 2010 with an average price of RM700 psf (US$232), achieved 76% take-up rate during the quarter.

 

Hospitality

Average occupancy rate increased from 63.9% to 70.1% in Q2 2011

Average daily room rates in the Klang Valley generally increased between 1.8% and 13.3% q-o-q.

The average daily room rate for Traders Hotel (a four-star business class) reached RM400 (US$132) per room per night in Q2 2011, which is significantly higher than a number of International Class hotels, indicates that hotels in prime location and are well managed will outperform the market average

Vietnam Economic Update

 

Vietnam registered a healthy growth rate of 5.67% in the second quarter (Q1 2011: 5.43%), attributed by the expansion of the industrial and construction sector by 6.49%, the service sector by 2.57% and the agriculture, forestry and fishery sector by 2.08%. The Government forecasted a gross domestic product growth rate of 6.00% for 2011. Total committed foreign direct investment for the past seven months totaled US$9.0 billion, with realised foreign direct investment estimated at US$6.4 billion.

 

In June 2011, the Government raised its inflation target for the year from 11.75% to 15.00%. The average Consumer Price Index ("CPI") for the past seven months rose by 16.89%, when compared to the same period in 2010. The increase is largely due to the increase in food prices, electricity tariffs and petrol prices.

 

In moves to control inflation and bank lending, the State Bank of Vietnam ("SBV") increased the refinancing rate four times from 9% to 14% during the period under review. Additionally, the discount rate was also raised twice from 7% to 13%. However, the base lending rate was kept unchanged at 9%. In efforts to tighten limits on credit growth, SBV also issued a directive which requires entities and credit institutions to keep credit growth to below 20% per annum. In addition, it stipulates that loans outstanding for non-productive sectors, which includes real estate and securities, should only account for 22% of the total loans outstanding at 30 June 2011 and 16% as of 31 December 2011. Credit institutions that fail to comply would be subject to double the common reserve requirement ratio and restriction of operational scope. These actions have resulted in high lending rates and limited access to credit for home buyers and developers.

 

The Business Confidence Index measured by WVB Vietnam Financial Intelligence Services Company Limited (WVB FISL) and PVFC Invest in the second quarter of 2011 declined by 21 points to 88 points, against the previous quarter, with most businesses expressing a lack of confidence in the country's economic recovery this year.

 

 

Overview of Property Market in Vietnam

 

Offices

Ho Chi Minh City ("HCMC") office market has a total of 173 office buildings of all grades with a total leasable area of around 1.1 million sq m.

In Q2 2011, one Grade B and four Grade C office buildings in HCMC with a total of 43,300 sq m were completed in Q2 2011, an increase of 4% q-o-q and 23% y-o-y.

Average occupancy rate and rental for office building in HCMC for Q2 2011 is 82% (Q1 2011: 79%) and US$28 per sq m (Q1 2011: US$28 per sq m).

Due to the relatively large supply of HCMC office space expected to be completed in the coming few quarters, Grade A office rents declined by 1.9% q-o-q to US$34.21 per sq m per month, Grade B office rents decreased by 1.7% q-o-q to US$18.072 per sq m per month and Grade C office rents decreased by 1.4% q-o-q to US$15.65 per sq m per month.

 

Retail

In Q2 2011, total retail space in HCMC stands at approximately 630,000 sq m, with only 23% of the supply located within District 1, the Central Business District ("CBD").

Average occupancy rate for retail space in HCMC declined from 90% in Q1 2011 to 85% in Q2 2011.

Average market rents in HCMC for Q2 2011 is US$65 per sq m (Q1 2011: US$68 per sq m), a decrease of 5% q-o-q and 14% y-o-y.

 

Residential

The average primary price of Grade A, Grade B and Grade C apartment for sale in HCMC in Q2 2011 was recorded at approx. US$2,223 per sq m, US$1,974 per sq m and US$674 per sq m respectively.

Due to the tightening of monetary policy, mortgage rates have increased to approx. 25% per annum at several banks. High mortgage rates and high Vietnamese Dong deposit rates (exceeding 14%) has dampened investors' interest in the real estate market.

 

Hospitality

International visitors' arrivals during the first half of 2011 totaled 1.65 million, an increase of 10% y-o-y

To date, there are 67 three- to five-star hotels operating in HCMC. No new hotels were completed in the second quarter.

Average occupancy rate of hotels in HCMC decreased from 80% in Q1 2011 to 59% in Q2 2011, due to the start of the low season.

Average room rates for decreased to US$83 per room per night in Q2 2011 (Q1 2011: US$94 per room per night).

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 JUNE 2011

 

1 General Information

 

The principal activities of the Group are acquisition, development and redevelopment of upscale residential, commercial and hospitality projects in the major cities of Malaysia and Vietnam. The Group typically invests in development projects at the pre-construction stage and may also selectively invests in projects in construction and newly completed projects with potential capital appreciation.

2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

2.1 Basis of Preparation

 

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended 30 June 2011 has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting.

 

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2010 which has been prepared in accordance with IFRS.

 

Taxes on income in the interim period are accrued using the tax rate that would be applicable to expected total annual earnings.

 

The interim results have not been audited nor reviewed and do not constitute statutory financial statements.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on management's best knowledge of the amount, event or actions, actual results ultimately may differ from those estimates.

 

The accounting policies applied are consistent with those of the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2010 as described in those annual financial statements.

 

The interim report and financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 23 August 2011.

 

 

2.2 Restatement

 

The comparative figures in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position have been restated as follows:

 

(i)

"Land held for property development", "Property development cost" and "Inventories" has been aggregated as "Inventories"; and

(ii)

"Trade and other payables" has been further analysed into "Trade and other payables" and "Deferred revenue".

 

These restatements have been made to conform with current year presentation that has been amended to align with accepted disclosure practices of developers listed on recognised exchanges preparing accounts in accordance with IFRS. These restatements have also led to changes in the presentation of the following items in the Statement of Cash Flows: Increase in inventories, Increase in property development costs, Increase in deferred revenue, Decrease in payables and Purchase of land held for property development.

 

The comparative figures in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows have been restated to separately disclose interest paid of US$5,025,287. These restatements have been made to comply with the requirements of paragraph 32 of IFRS 7.

 

The net effect of the statements on the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the financial period ended 30 June 2010 is as follows:

3 SegmentAL Information

 

The Group's assets and business activities are managed by Ireka Development Management Sdn. Bhd. ("IDM") as the Development Manager under a management agreement dated 27 March 2007.

 

Segmental information represents the level at which financial information is reported to the Executive Management of IDM, being the chief operating decision maker as defined in IFRS 8. The Executive Management consists of the Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Financial Officer and the Chief Operating Officer of IDM. The management determines the operating segments based on reports reviewed and used by the Executive Management for strategic decision making and resource allocation. For management purposes, the Group is organised into project units.

 

The Group's reportable operating segments are as follows:

 

(i)

Ireka Land Sdn. Bhd. - develops i-ZEN@Kiara I, Tiffani by i-ZEN and 1 Mont' Kiara by i-ZEN;

(ii)

ICSD Ventures Sdn. Bhd. - develops Sandakan Harbour Square; and

(iii)

Amatir Resources Sdn. Bhd. - develops SENI Mont' Kiara.

 

Other non-reportable segments comprise the Group's Vietnam subsidiaries which are developing the Hi-Tech Healthcare Park and other new development projects. None of these segments meets any of the quantitative thresholds for determining reportable segments in 2011 and 2010.

 

Information regarding the operations of each reportable segment is included below. The Executive Management monitors the operating results of each segment for the purpose of performance assessments and making decisions on resource allocation. Performance is based on segment gross profit and profit before taxation, which the Executive Management believes are the most relevant in evaluating the results relative to other entities in the industry. Segment assets and liabilities are presented inclusive of inter-segment balances and inter-segment pricing is determined on an arm's length basis.

 

The Group's revenue generating development projects are currently only in Malaysia since development activities in Vietnam are at preliminary stage.

*

The applicable corporate tax rate in Malaysia and Vietnam is 25%.

**

The applicable corporate tax rate in Singapore is 17%. A subsidiary of the Group, Hoa Lam-Shangri-La Healthcare Ltd Liability Co was granted preferential corporate tax rate of 10%. The preferential income tax was given by the government due to the subsidiary involvement in the hospital and education industry.

 

Following changes to the Income Tax (Jersey) Law 1961 (as amended), the Company is no longer able to apply to be tax-exempt. From 1 January 2009 the Company has been treated as a tax resident for the purpose of Jersey tax laws and is subject to a tax rate of 0%. This has lead to a cost saving of £600 p.a. which was the fee for the exempt application.

 

A Goods and Services Tax was introduced in Jersey in May 2008. The Company has been registered as an International Services Entity so that it does not have to charge or pay local GST. The cost for this application has been £100 p.a., increasing to £200 from 1 January 2011.

 

The Directors intend to conduct the Group's affairs such that the central management and control is not exercised in the United Kingdom and so that neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries carries on any trade in the United Kingdom. The Company and its subsidiaries will thus not be residents in the United Kingdom for taxation purposes. On this basis, they will not be liable for United Kingdom taxation on their income and gains other than income derived from a United Kingdom source.
