Its portfolio comprises a diversified mix of office, residential, retail, logistics and hotel developments valued at approximately EUR370 million by external independent appraiser (Colliers International), as at 31 December 2012. The ABLON Group had, as at 31 December 2012, approximately 208,800 square metres of existing and income generating office, residential, hotel, retail and logistics assets (at 15 locations) in Budapest and Prague, with a significant development land bank comprising a further circa. 1,164,500 square metres (at 23 locations) in Budapest, Prague, Bucharest and Warsaw.

chairman's statement
The countries and segments in which the Group operates are experiencing continuing difficult market conditions. The prolonged overall economic difficulties had a marked effect on business sentiment throughout the region with profound losses in property values. The Group continued to cope with the challenges maintaining its revenues while improving its cash-flow.
The performance of the Group remains focused on our income generating assets while our development activities are on hold with new constructions starting only commencing in case of availability of financing.
We have reviewed the cost structure across the Group and have been implementing changes in order to reduce regular expenditure at both the central and operational levels.
We recognise the need to generate further income within the Group and are focused on generating positive cash flow which we expect to achieve through a combination of cost reductions, asset realisations and, where applicable, refinancings.
ABLON has made several important steps during the year to progress this strategy:
-- Asset realisation: The Group sold 50% of the Karolkowa Business Park in November 2012.
-- New developments: The Group has secured financing and started and completed construction of a new storage facility in the Airport City Logistics Park in Budapest.
-- Refinancings: The Group prolonged its MEUR 37 expiring loan with Deutsche Pfandbriefbank for a period of up to five years.
Working capital
Whilst we believe that the Group has sufficient cash (including cash equivalents) for its present requirements, if the Group is unable to renew, refinance or extend expired or expiring loans, then it may be required to repay such loans; and, if the Group is unable to raise sufficient sales proceeds from the disposal of the Group's interest in the properties secured against such loans, then it would default on those loans.
However, we believe, based on past experience during the recent turmoil in the financial markets, that the Group will be able to renegotiate covenants, extend or refinance all loans that breach or will breach covenants or have or will fall due for repayment in the next 12 months and that we will be able to renegotiate, extend, refinance or renew all relevant loans on commercially acceptable terms. I would also like to bring to your attention, note 2 (c) of the financial statements which explains further the assumptions the Board has made in confirming that the Group is a going concern, and that the auditors have not qualified their audit opinion in this regard although they too draw your attention to this statement.
I would like to bring to your attention, note 31 of the financial statements which describes the loan transfer between Volksbank and CPI Beta a.s. and the loan agreement between Volksbank and Ablon, both dated 21 March 2013.
Board changes
Saydam Salaheddin was nominated by the Board as a director in October 2012 and Wolfhard Fromwald and Marek Modecki were nominated at the 5 December 2012 EGM. Uri Heller was removed from the Board at the same EGM while Mordechai Bignitz, Marek Modecki and Saydam Salaheddin were removed from the Board in EGMs held on 31 January and 1 February 2013. Mr Radovan Vítek and Mr. Martin Nemecek were elected as directors on 1 February 2013 and in conjunction with CPI's offer they resigned on 6 February 2013. We are grateful to the leaving directors for their contribution to the Company.
Prospects
We continue to monitor potential development opportunities within our land bank and we have the flexibility within our portfolio to commence developments according to market needs as well as to realise value on appropriate terms. This flexible approach will enable ABLON to realise and generate value for our shareholders.
We welcome the developments of the cash offer by CPI Group a.s., which has been ABLON Group's parent company since 22 February 2013.
Alex Borrelli,
Chairman

DIRECTORS' REPORT
The Directors' Report is prepared under the Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008 as amended.
Operational Review
Budapest
Office segment
The office segment occupancy and annualised gross rent figure decreased. Occupancy is at 67% (31 December 2011: 72%), annualised rental income is at EUR10.2 million (31 December 2011: EUR11.3 million).
Larger moves include the Fogarasi building, which is now empty since the tenant that fully occupied the building moved out in January 2012, whereas the occupancy was 100% with EUR0.4 million annualised gross rent as at 31 December 2011. Vacancy increased considerably in BC 91, currently at 50% (67% as at 31 December 2011).
Most expiring leases are prolonged, but at lower rent levels, producing lower annualised rental income generally over the portfolio.
Retail segment
The retail segment continued its favourable trend of increasing occupancy reaching 76% for the three properties combined (68% as at 31 December 2011). The driver was Buy-way Dunakeszi with 81% of the area occupied currently (64% as at 31 December 2011). Annualised gross rent decreased to EUR2.6 million (31 December 2011: EUR2.9 million) as a result of lower turnovers and with the close of the casino in Europeum that was a result of new state regulations on casino activities.
Logistics segment
The logistics segment continued its growth this year, occupancy reaching 95% (31 December 2011: 69%) and annualised gross rent at EUR1.7 million (31 December 2011: EUR1.0 million). This year's increase was boosted with the December 2012 handover of the third building at the Airport City Logistics Park, a 6,900 sqm storage and office facility. The building was constructed for the purposes of a 10 year built to suit contract.
Hotel segment
The Marriott Courtyard revenue was EUR3.9 million in 2012 unchanged from the last year (2011: EUR3.9 million), but lower operational costs have decreased the segment loss (EUR0.3 million loss in 2012 compared to a EUR0.5 million loss in 2011). Occupancy did not change recording 64% for both 2012 and 2011.
Prague
Office segment
At the end of December 2012, the total Prague occupancy was 81% (90% as at 31 December 2011), while annualised gross rent decreased to EUR2.3 million (EUR2.6 million as at 31 December 2011).
The decrease in occupancy and annualised gross rent has been caused by moves in Palmovka building, where a tenant that occupied apr. 50% of the building moved out as of December 31, 2012. Until December 31, 2012 (including) the occupancy was 96% with EUR0.75 million annualised gross rent.
Residential segment
In the residential development, 27 units were delivered to buyers during 2012, compared to 20 in 2011. As at 31 December 2012, 101 units had been sold out of a total of 162.
Bucharest
The Group's developments in Bucharest remain on hold until market conditions improve.
Poland
The Group has sold 50% of the Karolkowa Business Park and management is secured by the purchasing party. The Gdansk project has come under liquidation due to unresolved differences with the 49% minority owners. The Group's remaining development in Poland, Salomea Business Park, remains on hold until market conditions improve.
Income Statement review
In thousand Euros 2012 2011 Cost Cost Revenue of sales Revenue of sales Rental of investment properties 16,805 (1,365) 16,610 (1,277) Residential sales 3,259 (2,641) 2,751 (2,090) Service and management activity 6,219 (5,297) 7,175 (6,084) Hotel operation 3,876 (4,203) 3,885 (4,395) Total 30,159 (13,506) 30,421 (13,846)
Rental activities
Gross rental income was EUR16.8 million for the year ended 31 December 2012, in line with the EUR16.6 million generated during the year ended 31 December 2011. The decrease in office rental income was compensated by the Europeum Shopping Centre operating for the full 12 months in 2012 compared with 2011 as the Centre opened in April 2011. Revenue from the logistics segment (Airport City) also increased.
Residential activities
Residential income was EUR3.3 million for the year ended 31 December 2012, compared to EUR2.8 million for the year ended 31 December 2011. The income is attributed to 27 units delivered to buyers at the Viva Residence project in Prague (2011: 20 units delivered).
Hotel activities
Marriott Courtyard operations generated hotel sales income of EUR3.9 million in 2012, unchanged from the previous year (2011: EUR3.9 million).
Service and management activities
Service and management activities income was EUR6.2 million representing a decrease of EUR1 million, or 14% from the EUR7.2 million generated during the year ended 31 December 2011. The decrease is a result of reduced fit-out activity in 2012 compared to the 2011, when the handover of the Europeum Shopping Centre and new lettings at Buy Way Dunakeszi generated a one-off turnover.
Net losses on fair value adjustment of investment property
Net loss on the fair value adjustment of investment property for the year ended 31 December 2012 was EUR74.2 million, compared to a net gain of EUR17.9 million for the year ended 31 December 2011. The reasons for the loss is the result of lower valuation of the investment properties held by the Group, while the gain in 2011 was solely a result of exchange differences caused by a 11.6% weakening of the Hungarian Forint and 11.5% weakening of the Polish Zloty.
Until 31 December 2011 the functional currencies of the Group's subsidiaries were the respective local currencies, which meant that valuations nominated in euro were translated into the local currency. Since 1 January 2012 most project companies that have investment properties have the euro as functional currency, which has limited the effect of FX changes in the valuation figures.
Impairment of inventory
Impairment losses on inventory for the year ended 31 December 2012 were EUR12.2 million against an impairment loss of EUR3.2 million for the year ended 31 December 2011. The losses incurred are due to decreasing comparable values on the Bucharest residential properties and on the Ritka project.
Impairment of property, plant and equipment
Impairment loss on property, plant and equipment for the year ended 31 December 2012 was EUR2.1 million. (There were no impairment gains or losses on property, plant and equipment in the year ended 31 December 2011).
Sales and marketing expenses
Sales and marketing expenses were EUR0.5 million for the year ended 31 December 2012, a decrease of EUR0.1 million from EUR0.6 million for the year ended 31 December 2011.
Administrative expenses
Administrative expenses were EUR4.7 million for the year ended 31 December 2012, unchanged from the previous year (EUR4.7 million for the year ended 31 December 2011).
Net financing expense
Net financing expense was EUR5.8 million for the year ended 31 December 2012, a decrease of EUR29.4 million, compared to the net financing expenses of EUR35.2 million for the corresponding period in 2011. The decrease in financial expense is primarily due to appreciation of the local currencies against the euro, while last year the local currencies weakened against the euro with the marked depreciation of 11.6% of the Hungarian Forint. The change of functional currency from the local currency to the euro has mitigated the effect of fx changes on the profit or loss of the Company in general.
Year ended 31 December 2012 2011 Net interest expenses (8.6) (9.2) Net FX movement 2.9 (25.8) Other (0.1) (0.2) ------------------------------------- ------ ------- Total net finance income/(expenses) (5.8) (35.2)
Current income tax
Current income tax was EUR0.7 million for the year ended 31 December 2012 an increase of EUR0.4 million from EUR0.3 million for the year ended 31 December 2011.
Deferred income tax
Deferred tax income was EUR7.3 million for the year ended 31 December 2012, while in the year ended 31 December 2011 it was an expense of EUR15.3 million. The deferred tax income this year is a result of the lower valuation of properties.
Statement of financial position review
Investment property
The value of investment property was EUR297.5 million as at 31 December 2012, a decrease of EUR82.1 million or 21.6% from the EUR379.6 million as at 31 December 2011.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment decreased by EUR1.9 million, from EUR28.9 million as at 31 December 2011 to EUR27 million as at 31 December 2012.
Long-term inventory
Long-term inventory decreased by EUR18.1 million, from EUR50.5 million as at 31 December 2011 to EUR32.4 million as at 31 December 2012. The decrease is mainly due to further inventory provision on the Romanian residential purpose land portfolio.
Current assets
Current assets include inventories (in particular, residential property intended for sale), current receivables (rent receivables, receivables from property sales and receivables from shareholders) and other assets, bank balances and cash. Total current assets decreased by EUR3.1 million, from EUR20.4 million as at 31 December 2011 to EUR17.3 million as at 31 December 2012. The decrease was due to a EUR2.3 million decrease in inventory (sale of apartments in the Viva project), a EUR0.4 million decrease in cash and cash equivalents and a EUR0.4 million decrease in trade and other receivables.
Non--current liabilities
Non--current liabilities include long--term borrowings from commercial banks and shareholders, as well as deferred tax liabilities for future tax obligations. Total non--current liabilities increased by EUR8.3 million, from EUR155.4 million as at 31 December 2011 to EUR163.7 million as at 31 December 2012.
Long term borrowings increased by EUR18.1 million, from EUR118.3 million as at 31 December 2011 to EUR136.4 million as at 31 December 2012. The major changes include the prolongation of the loan with Deutsche Pfandbriefbank on the BC 91, BC 30 and Palmovka projects, which had a EUR37.2 million balance as at 31 December 2012 for a period up to five years, while the Airport City loan became short term as it matures on 30 April 2013. The Airport City loan had a balance of EUR8.1 million as at 31 December 2012.
Deferred tax liability decreased by EUR10 million, from EUR36.3 million as at 31 December 2011 to EUR26.3 million as at 31 December 2012. The decrease in deferred tax liabilities is a result of lower valuation of properties.
Current liabilities
Current liabilities decreased by EUR27.5 million, from EUR118.9 million as at 31 December 2011 to EUR91.4 million as at 31 December 2012. The major changes include the prolongation of the loan with Deutsche Pfandbriefbank on the BC 91, BC 30 and Palmovka projects, which had a EUR37.2 million balance as at 31 December 2012 for a period up to five years, while the Airport City loan became short term as it matures on 30 April 2013. The Airport City loan had a balance of EUR8.1 million as at 31 December 2012.
Cash flow, loans and liquidity
Cash flow
The Group's internal sources of liquidity and cash flow are generated from rental revenues and the sale of residential apartments. The Group had a positive operational cash flow of EUR7.5 million for the year ended 31 December 2012, an improvement of EUR1.9 million compared to the operational cash flow of EUR5.6 million for the year ended 31 December 2011.
Investing activities produced a EUR2.2 million negative cash flow (2011: EUR5.3 million negative cash flow).
Financing activities produced a EUR5.7 million negative cash flow (2011: EUR1.9 million negative cash flow). The loan repayment decreased by EUR2.8 million in 2012 (2012: EUR8.1 million loan repaid, 2011: EUR10.9 million loan repaid).
Indebtedness ratios
The Group's loan to equity ratio deteriorated by 62.0 percentage points to 172.1% as at 31 December 2012, while it was 110.1% as at 31 December 2011. The loan to equity ratio is calculated as total loan/total equity as shown in the Group's statement of financial position.
The Group's debt ratio (as measured by debt to total assets) increased by 11% to stand at 58% as at 31 December 2012, while it was 47% as at 31 December 2011.
Loan covenants and collaterals
The Group has several loans with covenants, of these, two loans are in technical breach:
A loan with an outstanding amount of approximately EUR11.7 million as at 31 December 2012 and an expiry date of 31 March 2019) has a 115% DSCR covenant. The relevant Group company is technically in breach of this covenant, although the lender has not issued a default notice.
Another loan with an outstanding amount of approximately EUR35.4 million as at 31 December 2012 and an expiry date of 31 December 2022) has a 71% LTV covenant. The relevant Group company is technically in breach of this covenant, although the lender has not issued a default notice. ABLON Group Limited provided EUR3.6 million guarantee to this loan.
Whilst in the past financing banks have agreed to prolong existing loan facilities, several projects have expired loans and there is no assurance that the banks will be prepared to prolong the expired loans or extend existing loan facilities beyond currently committed maturity dates. In the event a bank is not willing to extend a project loan and the Group would not pay back the expiring amounts the bank has the option to call its security. The loans are secured by underlying project companies' assets and pledge on shares of the underlying project companies. There are loans where the securities exceed underlying project companies and are secured by an additional asset of a different project company.
Loans granted by the financing banks are not cross collateralised by ABLON Group Limited except for a loan with an expiry in 2023, where ABLON Group Limited provided EUR3.6 million guarantee.
Cross collateral in a form of payment guarantees affect a number of projects, which are marked accordingly in the portfolio summary table below.

Dividend Policy
The Company has adopted a dividend policy that will reflect long-term earnings and cash flow potential while at the same time maintaining both prudent dividend cover and adequate capital resources within the business.
As a result of continued uncertainty in the economic outlook of the Group's markets, the Board of Directors of the Company has decided it would not be prudent to recommend the payment of a dividend.
This approach supports the Company's initiatives to preserve cash during the current challenging market environment. The Board of Directors of the Company believes that shareholders' interests will be better served by retaining the Group's cash to improve its working capital position. The Company cannot at this stage indicate when it will pay its next dividend.
Disclosure of information to auditors
So far as each of the Directors is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the Company's auditor is unaware, and each of the Directors has taken all the steps required to have been taken as a Director to make himself aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the Company's auditor is aware of that information.

Statement of Directors' responsibilities
The Directors are responsible for preparing the Directors' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the Directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law they have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and applicable law.
The financial statements are required by law to give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Group and of the profit or loss of the Group for that period.
In preparing these financial statements, the Directors are required to:
n select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
n make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
n state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
n prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Group will continue in business.
The Directors are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Group and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with The Companies (Guernsey) Law, 2008. They have general responsibility for taking such steps as are reasonably open to them to safeguard the assets of the Group and to prevent and detect fraud and other irregularities.
