Reconstruction Capital II Limited (the "Company")
Interim Unaudited Financial Statements
for the six months ended 30 June 2020
Reconstruction Capital II Limited ("RC2", the "Company" or the
"Group"), a closed-end investment company incorporated in the
Cayman Islands admitted to trading on the AIM market of the London
Stock Exchange, today announces its results for the six months
ended 30 June 2020.
Copies of the company's interim financial statements will today
be posted to shareholders. The interim report is also available on
the Company's website http://www. reconstructioncapital2.com/.
Financial highlights
On 30 June 2020, Reconstruction Capital II Limited ("RC2") had a
total unaudited net asset value ("NAV") of EUR19.5m or EUR0.1428
per share, which represents a 1.52% fall since the beginning of the
year.
As at 30 June 2020, RC2 had cash and cash equivalents of
approximately EUR10,000 while its subsidiary, RC2 (Cyprus) Ltd, had
cash and cash equivalents of EUR68,000. Additionally, RC2 (Cyprus)
Ltd had loan receivables from Telecredit and Mamaia Resort Hotels
of EUR 1.5m. As at 30 June 2020, RC2 had sundry liabilities of
EUR137,000.
Operational highlights
The Romanian and Bulgarian governments took timely measures to
contain the spread of COVID-19 when the numbers of cases and
fatalities were still relatively low compared to Western Europe.
Although these measures, which were stricter in Romania, seemed to
have suppressed the pandemic, once the restrictions in both
countries were gradually lifted in mid-May, the number of cases has
been rising to worrying levels with Romania and Bulgaria posting
two of the highest rates of new cases in South-East Europe. At the
end of July, Romania and Bulgaria were reporting 100 and 70
COVID-19 active cases per 100,000 inhabitants, respectively,
compared to 22 and 19 active cases at the end of May.
The Policolor Group's January-June 2020 sales results were up
3.4% year-on-year at EUR 31.2m, albeit 13.9% below budget. Sales of
coatings were badly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and related
lockdown restrictions during April, but sales of both coatings and
resins have since recovered, making up some of the lost ground.
Over the first half of 2020, the Policolor Group generated a
recurring EBITDA (excluding revenues and expenses allocated to the
real estate division) of EUR 2m, in line with the budget, helped by
production efficiencies and operating cost savings.
Both Mamaia and Telecredit's operations have been badly affected
by the COVID-19 pandemic, and both management teams have prepared
revised budgets to reflect the estimated impact of the pandemic on
their respective businesses this year.
Following the finalization of the second phase of the renovation
works on its public areas, and due to the Romanian authorities
re-allowing open air restaurants to operate, the Mamaia hotel
re-opened at the beginning of June. However, it is still not
allowed to use its indoor restaurants, and is forced to restrict
its food and beverage service to its outdoor terrace, where social
distancing rules limit the number of customers. Management's
revised 2020 budget for the Hotel envisages total revenues of EUR
2.0m instead of an originally planned EUR 3.2m, and a net loss of
EUR -0.24m instead of an original estimated net profit of EUR
0.18m. In April, RC2 provided a EUR 0.3m loan to the Hotel to help
finalize its planned renovation works. The loan was fully drawn by
the end of May.
Telecredit deployed EUR 3.7m in financing products to small and
medium sized enterprises in the first semester, generating an
Operating Loss before Depreciation of EUR 0.2m due to increased
provisions expenses, reflecting the difficulties small and
medium-sized companies are currently facing due to the pandemic.
The revised 2020 budget prepared by management anticipates a net
loss of EUR 0.39m compared to an original estimated net profit of
EUR 0.06m, due to lower financing volumes generating lower interest
revenues (EUR 0.8m as opposed to an initial EUR 1m) and
significantly higher provisions on SME lending (EUR 0.2m as opposed
to an initial EUR 0.1m). The company reimbursed EUR 0.3m of the EUR
1.5m loan RC2 provided to Telecredit in the second half of
2019.
