Interim Management Statement

9th May 2018 - Hongkong Land Holdings Limited has today issued an Interim Management Statement for the first quarter of 2018.

In Hong Kong, rental reversions in the Group's Central office portfolio continued to be positive. Vacancy fell to 0.9%, compared to 1.4% at 31st December 2017. The Group's Central retail portfolio remained effectively fully occupied but saw mildly negative rental reversions. Rental reversions in the Group's Singapore office portfolio were negative, but are expected to become positive later in the year as the market continues to recover. Vacancy at the end of March was 0.4%, compared with 0.3% at the prior year end. In mainland China, the Group's luxury retail complex WF CENTRAL in Wangfujing, Beijing, is performing in line with expectations.

In Development Properties, the Group's attributable interest in contracted sales in mainland China was US$300 million in the first quarter, compared to US$287 million in the equivalent period in 2017, with market sentiment remaining positive. In Singapore, Lake Grande has been fully sold, while sales at Margaret Ville are expected to commence shortly. The Sol Acres project, which was already substantially sold, was completed in April 2018. Contracted sales levels at the Group's other properties in the rest of Southeast Asia were satisfactory.

The Group's financial position remains strong, with net debt at 31st March 2018 modestly higher than at 2017 year end, due to payments for previously committed land purchases.
