St Mark Homes Plc
("SMH" or "the Company")
Unaudited Interim Report for the six month period ended 30 June 2017
Review of operations for the six month period ended 30 June 2017
The Directors are pleased to announce the interim results for six months ended
30 June 2017. The company continues to trade profitably as a residential and
mixed use property developer.
The Directors are pleased to report a pre-tax profit of GBP210,976 (2016 - GBP
315,493) for the period.
The Company paid an interim Ordinary share dividend of 5.5p per share on 14
July 2017 (2016 - 5.0p). This dividend was not accrued in the accounts at 30
June 2017. This represents a 10% growth in dividend over the corresponding
period last year. The net assets per share stands at 136 pence (2016 - 137p) at
the end of this interim reporting period.
The Company is also pleased to announce plans to initially raise up to GBP2m
through the issue of 2 1?2 year corporate bonds through the Crowdstacker
platform in the coming months. The bonds will carry an annual coupon of 6% and
will be ISA eligible. The Directors believe that this additional capital will
enable the Company to make a number of new project investments and should lead
to a stronger and more profitable business going forward.
A summary of the progress on our current projects is set out below:
Sutton High Street, Sutton
The Company has invested in a regeneration property development venture at
Sutton High Street. Phase I of the development project (consisting of 41
residential units over ground floor retail space) was completed in October
2016). All residential units have been sold on this first phase. The
Company retains an interest in the commercial space and is in advanced
negotiations with a high street retailer on the letting of this space. The
Company also retains an interest in the commercial space and the neighbouring
derelict old Prince Regent public house site. Following an extensive
consultation with the local authority our development partner intends to make
a detailed planning application to redevelop the derelict public house site to
provide a new build development of 35 residential units over ground floor
commercial / retail space in late September 2017.
Gwynne Road, London, SW11
St Mark has taken a 40% joint venture interest in the redevelopment of the site
at 55- 66 Gwynne Road. Construction of this mixed-use scheme (33 residential
flats over ground and first floor commercial/retail space) is now well underway
and is forecast to be completed toward the end 2018. The Company is delighted
to report that contracts have been exchanged 11 of the 33 residential units
(representing the affordable / social housing element of the scheme). Given the
relatively early stage of construction we have not recognised our profit share
on this exchanged element at this time.
London Road, Hounslow, TW3
St Mark has taken a joint venture interest of up to 40% in this development of
34 all private flats in Hounslow, West London. Construction is well underway
and is forecast to be completed in May / June 2018. Marketing of the scheme is
scheduled to start in earnest in Autumn 2017.
