LAMDA Development: Third Quarter 2012 Financial Results

PROFITABLE STATUS OF SHOPPING CENTERS CONTINUES WITH 98% OCCUPANCY AND NEW DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES

Following the trend from last period, Group EBITDA before fair value losses reached €22,2 million compared to €25,5 million in the first nine months of 2011, registering a manageable decrease of 13%, while operational profitability of our three Shopping Centers posted a slight decrease of 11% despite the deep recession in the retail sector in Greece.

Net Loss for the first nine months of 2012 amounts to €18,8 million compared to losses of €2,7 million in the equivalent period last year because of the increase in fair value losses of our investment portfolio by €16,6 million and the increase in net interest expense by €0,9 million, as a result of the increase in loan interest rates. The above mentioned net loss does not include the accounting impact of the €44 million cumulative impairment of our participation in Eurobank Properties as per IAS 39. The impairment was previously reflected in the group’s equity account in the previous years for the same amount. It must be noted that on 21/08/2012 LAMDA Development sold to Fairfax Financial Holdings Limited its participation in Eurobank Properties a total of 9.017.987 shares at a selling price of €4,75, which represents a 12% premium compared to the previous day closing price. The profit from this transaction amounting to €8,3 million has been incorporated in the Company’s results in Q3 2012.

The favourable performance comparison of our shopping and entertainment centres to the rest of the retail market in Greece is attributed to the fact that they have overwhelmingly won the preference of the consumer public. Shopkeepers continue to have the advantage of lower rents compared to high streets and enjoy ample support via marketing, promotional and communication activities which procure satisfactory customer visits as evidenced by actual data. This success is also reflected in the full occupancy rate of our shopping centers as well as in the quality of services to customers.

More specifically, the operation of “The Mall Athens” has been quite satisfactory given that recurring profitability posted a decrease of 12,2% while shopkeepers’ turnover decreased by 10,6%. It is very encouraging that the Shopping Center is fully leased, while customer visits remain at last year level. Shopkeepers’ turnover in “Golden Hall” for the same period decreased by 12%, while recurring profitability dropped by 27%. It should be noted that customer visits posted a marginal decrease of 3%. In “Mediterranean Cosmos”, in Thessaloniki shopkeepers’ turnover dropped by 3,4%, customer visits dropped by 4% and recurring profitability posted a marginal decrease of 2,6%. It should be noted that, following our undertaking of the full management of Mediterranean Cosmos in December 2010, various corrective actions and improvements are being successfully implemented in order to further improve the quality of the center and to fortify the product mix with strong brand names, such as ATTICA, INTERSPORT, H&M and APPLE, among others. In addition, the second phase of architectural and aesthetic improvement of Mediterranean Cosmos has been completed, an investment that reiterates our long-term commitment to support our Shopping Centers.

Flisvos Marina, despite the economic recession posted an operational profit of €0,4 mil while office buildings had a positive contribution of €1,5 million to Group profitability. Moreover, the dividends and participations revenue, practically unchanged versus last year, since dividend collected from Eurobank Properties REIC approximates €3,6 million, a result of its continuing strong performance.
