Profit share resulting from sale by Fprop PDR

First Property Group plc (AIM: FPO), the property fund manager and investor, is pleased to announce that Fprop PDR, the partnership established with clients of Towers Watson in October 2013 to convert offices in the UK to residential use, has contracted to sell its remaining two properties.

First Property's profit share from these sales, including the profit earned from the Group's five per cent co-investment in the partnership, will amount to some £2.5 million. The completion of the sale of one property will take place in two parts, on 31 March 2015 and 31 July 2015 respectively. Completion of the latter of these two parts is subject to certain conditions precedent which the Group is confident of fulfilling. First Property's profit share of £2.5 million will accordingly be recognised in two parts as well: £1.5 million in the year to 31 March 2015, with the remainder in the year to 31 March 2016 subject to the fulfilment of the conditions precedent.

These sales bring the total number of properties sold by Fprop PDR to eight. Aggregate net profits earned by Fprop PDR from these sales amount to some £16 million on an un-geared investment of some £30 million, representing a return on equity invested of some 53 per cent and an internal rate of return (IRR) of 98 per cent per annum. First Property's total profit share from Fprop PDR to date, including from the sales announced above, amounts to some £4.8 million.
