“Our results are reflecting current market situation in our markets. Increasing interest rate lead to drop in the property valuation which resulted in increased LTV and a decrease in EPRA NTA. Dividend payment, development activity and capex needs resulted in higher than in previous quarters cash outflows, however the Company’s cash remains at satisfactory levels. FFO was impacted by one-off administrative expenses of EUR 4 million, excluding this one-off cost item FFO would show a positive development. Leasing activity remains high and through our pipeline we strongly believe that will remain strong in next quarters.” commented Gyula Nagy, GTC’s President of the Management Board.
"We started our post as the Management Board members from a thorough review of the current GTC’s financial position and the real estate portfolio. We evaluated GTC’s prospects and were able to formulate a strategy for coming years. After in-depth analysis we decided to withdraw from negotiations to acquire Ultima Capital and focus our efforts and resources on GTC’s existing portfolio and development pipeline. We would like GTC to focus on its core real estate sectors: office and retail in its core markets and improve operations of the existing portfolio. We would selectively develop properties from our landbank based on their merits. We would like to invest in renewables in our core markets. We would like to check the possibility in the broad living sector in GTC’s core markets but also look at the other more advanced markets where market opportunities may arise. Last, but not least, we will be consolidating funds, switching slowly to secured financing, for the bonds repayment in 2026.”– added Gyula Nagy.
