Annual Financial Report <strong>2011</strong><br />

Accordingly, an amount of 19.9 million € was charged to the subsidiaries. Earnings before<br />

tax (EBT) fell from 51.3 million € in the previous year to 30.6 million €, which is primarily<br />

attributable to an increase in expenses related to <strong>financial</strong> assets of (100.7) million € (2010:<br />

(39.4) million €). A positive result of 23.4 million € was achieved for profit for the year (2010:<br />

41.9 million €). Accumulated profit recorded a significant decline from 56.7 million € in 2010<br />

to 30.1 million € in <strong>2011</strong>.<br />

Asset and <strong>financial</strong> position<br />

The balance sheet total also recorded a slight decline in the <strong>financial</strong> year <strong>2011</strong> to<br />

1,705.4 million €, after 1,755.1 million € in the previous year. Due to its holding function and<br />

the main business activity of investment in properties, the company’s balance sheet structure<br />

is dominated by property, plant and equipment as well as <strong>financial</strong> assets. Due to the sale of<br />

properties, property, plant and equipment amounted to 103.9 million € and thus fell slightly<br />

short of the prior-year level (2010: 147.9 million €).<br />

In addition to property, plant and equipment, non-current assets also included <strong>financial</strong><br />

assets of 1,323.0 million € at 31 December <strong>2011</strong>, after 1,439.5 million € at the end of 2010.<br />

The main part of the <strong>financial</strong> assets was accounted for by shares in associates with<br />

1,247.8 million €.<br />

Equity remained stable at 1,250.0 million € at the balance sheet date <strong>2011</strong> (2010:<br />

1.251,6 million €). The company’s share capital remained unchanged at 31 December <strong>2011</strong>.<br />

It amounted to 853.59 million € and was divided into 85,359,273 no-par shares.<br />

At 73.3 %, the equity ratio of <strong>conwert</strong> <strong>Immobilien</strong> <strong>Invest</strong> <strong>SE</strong> at 31 December <strong>2011</strong> slightly<br />

exceeded the prior-year level (2010: 71.3 %).<br />

Gearing at the balance sheet date amounted to 13.8 %. This is equivalent to a decline by<br />

47.9 % in comparison with the previous year (2010: 26.5 %). Gearing is the ratio of total net<br />

debt to equity. The massive drop is primarily attributable to an increase in non-current trade<br />

and other receivables and a decrease in non-current payables.<br />

In the reporting period, liabilities declined from 481.4 million € in 2010 to 403.8 million €<br />

(corresponds to a reduction by 16.1 %) and predominantly consisted of bond liabilities of<br />

292.5 million € (2010: 332.5 million €) and loans and borrowings of 85.4 million € (2010:<br />

117.4 million €). The main part of loans and borrowings carried variable interest. The interest<br />

rate is based on the EURIBOR. 84.0 % of the interest-bearing variable liabilities (held directly<br />

by the company and through first and second tier subsidiaries) were hedged against interest<br />

risks (2010: 85.4 %).<br />

Receivables shown on the assets side totalling 256.4 million € at the balance sheet date<br />

<strong>2011</strong> (2010: 138.9 million €) largely consisted of receivables from fully consolidated<br />

companies at 221.3 million € and were therefore not subject to significant risks.<br />
