Comment from CEO Liia Nõu

“Demand in the hotel market was solid in the second quarter, with good business outcomes in both of our segments. Total revenue and total net operating income both increased by 6 percent for comparable portfolios with fixed exchange rates.”

“There were positive, unrealised net changes in value for the property portfolio as a whole, explained by increased cash flow. The hotel property portfolio’s average valuation yield increased marginally to 6.26 percent. Our average interest on debt decreased to 4.1 percent, further reinforcing our positive yield spread which is greater than 200 basis points.”

 

“With a loan-to-value ratio of 46.2 percent, interest-bearing net debt/EBITDA of 8.5 times, and cash and equivalents and unutilised credit facilities of MSEK 4,137, we are able to act swiftly when attractive acquisition opportunities come along.”
