Commenting on the results, Michael Stanley, CEO, said:
"We have made significant progress during 2016, both in terms of construction activity and sales performance. We are now building on seven sites in the Greater Dublin Area, with additional sites due to commence later this year.
"The Company is today supporting over 1,000 new construction jobs.
"Our rate of forward sales has accelerated significantly in the early part of 2017, with forward sales today standing at 301 units, with a gross sales value of EUR121.2 million. Looking forward Cairn will be selling homes at six individual developments by Autumn 2017. We believe that this expansion is well timed, as the supply/demand imbalance for new homes, particularly in the Greater Dublin Area, where the vast majority of our land bank is located, remains as stark as it was at the time of our IPO.
"2017 will be a transformative year for Cairn, and with strengthening mortgage backed demand, we now expect to close between 375 and 400 units in the current year. This underpins our confidence in achieving our 2018 and 2019 targets of in excess of 850 units and 1,200 units respectively."

CHIEF EXECUTIVE'S STATEMENT
Strategic Review
Cairn believes in designing and building quality family homes and establishing a market leading brand and reputation. Following the substantial completion of its initial capital deployment phase, the Company's focus is now firmly on continuing to scale its construction operations toward reaching its stated target of completing in excess of 1,200 new home sales during 2019. 2017 is a key year in this progression and the Company will be building new homes on ten sites by the end of 2017, seven of which are already active, with Naas due to commence in Q2.
Demand remains strong and the shortage of supply, which was evident throughout 2015 and 2016 continues to be a feature of the market.
The reduced deposit requirement for first time buyers as a result of the Help to Buy tax rebate ("HTB") announced in the 2017 Budget, coupled with the impact of the relaxation in the Central Bank of Ireland's ("CBI") macro-prudential rules has been impactful. Demand is more realisable as first time buyers now have better access to mortgage finance. The strategic bias of Cairn's land bank towards starter homes will continue to benefit the Company.
Operations Review
In its first full year of operations, the Company completed 105 house sales. In addition, the level of enquires and forward sales have continued to increase over recent months, with activity in both Parkside and Ashbourne particularly strong. Forward sales across all of our active sites stood at 301 (with a gross sales value of EUR121.2 million) as of today.
The pick-up in the weekly sales rate (up to 19.7 per week in Q1 2017 to date versus 10.0 per week in Q4 2016 and 3.5 per week in Q3 2016) has been driven by a number of factors, but most noticeably, positive customer feedback on the build quality and design of the Company's houses and apartments, its approach to customer service and more recently by improving mortgage backed demand. The Company's well-priced and strategically located land bank, economies of scale and efficient capital structure differentiate it from its competitors and enable it to bring new homes to the market at competitive price points.
The Company is now active on seven separate sites, including the most recently commenced Shackleton, Adamstown and Glenheron, Greystones. These seven sites will deliver in excess of 2,800 units over the coming years. The Company's operations will continue to accelerate with construction to commence on one of its Naas sites in Q2, with two further sites starting by the end of 2017.
The Company remains confident of achieving its previously guided 2019 target of in excess of 1,200 unit completions and an EBIT margin of 20%, without the benefit of future house price inflation.
The Company's planning and development teams will continue to add value by amending existing planning consents, where appropriate, and designing new schemes, in order to ensure optimum delivery and enhanced returns across the portfolio.
The Company's loan to own strategy post the Project Clear acquisition progressed well throughout the year and is expected to conclude in 2017. Total proceeds of EUR36.9 million were realised from settlements and asset sales in line with expectations and EUR201.1 million of assets (15 sites) transferred to its direct ownership by year-end, with a further EUR43.9 million transferred during the early months of 2017. The Company remains confident of realising the full value on all Project Clear core sites converted to its direct ownership and on achieving targeted profit levels on its smaller non-core site disposals.
In excess of 91% of the Company's core land bank of 12,100 units is located in the Greater Dublin area, in line with the Company's original strategic objective. Given the profile of the Company's acquisitions to date, 35% of the core land bank has the benefit of an existing planning consent, 34% is in strategic development zones (which is an effective full planning permission) and 27% is zoned residential.
Several successful land acquisitions were completed during 2016, including the acquisition of the Argentum business and its six sites, along with the purchase of sites in Hanover Quay (Dublin City Centre), Cherrywood (South Dublin), Maynooth (Kildare), Delgany (Wicklow), Enniskerry (Wicklow), Cork Street (Dublin City Centre) and Blackhall Place (Dublin City Centre).
As the Company continues to grow its talented team, the strength of its brand, its approach to design and building homes and the quality of its land bank differentiates Cairn, enabling the Company to attract the highest calibre of staff and to provide a growth platform for our subcontractors. Today, the Company supports over 1,000 construction jobs across its various sites.
The recently announced joint venture with NAMA on lands adjoining the Parkside site is a positive new departure for the Company. Such joint venture opportunities with strong counterparties provide the Company with an additional and alternative route to market, through an efficient capital deployment model.
Financial Review
Total revenues of EUR40.9 million were up EUR37.2 million on 2015. The revenue number is comprised of residential property sales revenues of EUR35.5 million (including EUR4.5 million of revenues from Project Clear related sales), residential site sales revenues of EUR4.2 million and rental income of EUR1.2 million.
Gross profits generated from operating activities were EUR7.1 million, up from EUR0.7 million in 2015. The gross profit margin was 17.3%, which compared to 18.9% in 2015. The gross margin progressed during the year from 16.5% in H1, to 17.7% in H2.
An operating profit of EUR3.6 million, before exceptional items of EUR1.4 million was generated, which compares favourably with the operating loss, before exceptional items, of EUR3.8 million in 2015.
Net finance costs for the twelve months were EUR5.1 million, compared to EUR1.7 million (excluding exceptional items) in 2015, which reflected the increased level of debt carried in the business during 2016.
Net debt of EUR76.0 million as at 31 December 2016 was comprised of drawn debt of EUR148.6 million (including unamortised arrangement fees and issue costs), available cash of EUR45.6 million and EUR27.0 million of restricted cash. Net debt at 31 December 2015 was EUR30.0 million.
Inventories as at 31 December 2016 were EUR727.2 million, comprised of land held for development of EUR689.9 million (including EUR130.9 million of land in a foreclosure process) and work in progress of EUR37.3 million. The increased investment in both land and WIP during 2016, reflects the continued investment phase of the Company in its overall inventory levels.
MARKET CONDITIONS
Residential Property Market
The ongoing supply/demand imbalance is a key factor in the continued upward trajectory in house price inflation, which was up 8.1% and 5.7% nationally and in Dublin respectively in the 12 months to the end of December 2016. Dublin prices still remain 32.8% behind peak 2007 levels, whilst rents are now back above their peak levels.
The estimated ESRI long-term requirement is for in excess of 10,000 new homes per annum in Dublin. The Department of Housing, Planning, Community and Local Government measured 4,234 completions in 2016, just 1,343 greater than 2015. As of today, there were just 2,234 new homes registered (on the Property Price Register) as sold in multi-unit developments in 2016.
Increasing rent levels across the country, and in Dublin in particular, are a continuing feature of the residential housing market in recent years, which is a direct manifestation of the worsening supply/demand imbalance. A recent industry report (source: Daft) highlighted this continued rise in rents, with national rents up 13.5% and Dublin rents up close to 15% in the twelve months to December 2016. These increased recent levels mean that it is now more than 30% cheaper to own a home rather than to rent a similar home in Dublin.
The mortgage market continued to improve throughout 2016, with mortgage drawdowns during the year increasing to EUR5.65 billion, which represents an increase of 12.3% on 2015 levels. Q4 2016 drawdown values increased by 26%, which is the largest quarterly increase seen since Q2 2007. First time buyers' mortgages saw an increase of 12% in total value across all of 2016, but with a significant acceleration in Q4, with growth of 25%.
Government Initiatives & Mortgage Rule Changes
The various Government initiatives announced during 2016, centred around "Rebuilding Ireland: Action Plan for Housing and Homelessness", announced in July 2016, provided support for the industry as it continues its rebuilding process. In particular, the HTB programme announced in Budget 2017 will help to generate much needed housing supply. This coupled with the recently announced relaxation of the CBI's macro-prudential mortgage lending rules relating to Loan to Value ratios for first time buyers has meant that the personal deposit requirement for the purchaser of a EUR300,000 new home has reduced by 60%, from EUR38,000 to EUR15,000. Other welcome initiatives include the EUR200 million Local Infrastructure Housing Activation Fund which will contribute towards the construction of roads and services for larger, pathfinder sites. The Government has identified and classified twenty three of these large pathfinder sites in Ireland, and Cairn is a landowner on five of these sites.
Economy
The Irish macro-economic backdrop remains positive, with Ireland continuing to experience its highest levels of consistent GDP growth since the mid-2000s, and it remains one of the strongest performing economies in Europe. Recent forecasts (source: Goodbody) for the Irish economy are predicting GDP growth of 4.4% in 2016 and 3.1% in 2017. The labour market continued to show positive momentum during 2016, with unemployment at 6.6% in February 2017, down from 8.8% in February 2016. More importantly, employment growth continues its upward trajectory, with 65,100 new jobs created in the twelve months to December 2016, an increase of 3.3% over the twelve months (source: CSO). This strong employment market is resulting in a return to wage growth, with an increase of 2.2% during 2016, with expectations of a similar level of growth during 2017. This strong economic backdrop is key to improving affordability, an important ingredient in underpinning housing demand.
While Brexit has generated some uncertainty for the broader Irish economy, there is potential for job relocations from London to Dublin and Cairn is ideally positioned to benefit from any increased demand for housing as a result of such relocations.
OUTLOOK
The overall economic environment continues to improve in Ireland and there is realisable demand for good quality new homes in attractive locations. With Cairn's scalable and flexible business model, the Company is very well placed to meet this market demand.
Sales momentum is strong and the rate of forward sales continues to accelerate. As a consequence, the Company now expects to complete the sale of between 375 and 400 units in the current year. The realisation of this sales targets will mean that the Company will become cash flow positive in Q4 2017.
Overall, the Company looks forward to another year of progress in 2017.

The statutory financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2015 have been filed with the Companies Registration Office and are available at www.cairnhomes.com. The audit opinion on those statutory financial statements was unqualified and did not contain any matters to which attention was drawn by way of emphasis. The statutory consolidated financial statements of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2016 will be published in April 2017 and will be available on www.cairnhomes.com.
The accounting policies, presentation and method of computations adopted in the preparation of the consolidated preliminary financial information are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group's financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2015.
The new IFRS standards, amendments to standards or interpretations that are effective for the first time in the financial year ending 31 December 2016 have not had a significant impact on the Group's reported results or net assets in this consolidated preliminary financial information.
The preparation of consolidated preliminary financial information requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to estimates are recognised prospectively.
The key judgements and estimates impacting this consolidated preliminary financial information are:
-- carrying value of inventories and allocations from inventories to cost of sales (Note 7) -- transfer of loan assets to development land collateral within inventories (Notes 6 and 7) -- acquisition accounting, including allocation of fair value of consideration (Note 16)
The consolidated preliminary financial information is presented in Euro, which is the functional currency of the Company and presentation currency of the Group, rounded to the nearest thousand.
The Board of Directors approved the consolidated preliminary financial information for the year ended 31 December 2016 on 8 March 2017.

The loan receivables were acquired in December 2015 (Project Clear) at a substantial discount to their nominal value reflecting their distressed state at the time of acquisition. The fair value of the loan receivables at acquisition was based on the value of the secured real estate collateral. Direct transaction costs incurred relating to the acquisition of these loans were capitalised.
During the year ended 31 December 2016, the Group realised gross proceeds of EUR28.2 million from the settlement of loans. At 31 December 2016, loans with a carrying value of EUR16 million are expected to be repaid. Net gains on loan settlements and accrued income of EUR2.6 million arose in the year (Note 3).
In February 2016, following the end of the sub-participation period, the Group commenced the foreclosure process, whereby the substantial majority of loans are recovered by obtaining the underlying collateral. Accordingly, the loans in foreclosure were derecognised as financial assets, and the related collateral assets were transferred to inventory, as detailed further in Note 7, which reflects the substance of these assets.
As a consequence, the related construction bonds and sundry receivables (amounts due from appointed receivers) associated with the underlying collateral have been transferred to trade and other receivables (Note 8).

The directors consider that all inventories are essentially current in nature although the Group's operational cycle is such that a considerable proportion of inventories will not be realised within 12 months. It is not possible to determine with accuracy when specific inventories will be realised as this will be subject to a number of factors such as consumer demand and the timing of planning permissions.
Having considered the current market conditions and development potential, the directors do not consider there to be any factors that give rise to concern in relation to the net realisable value of the Group's inventories as at 31 December 2016. Consequently, the directors believe that the carrying value of inventories is stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
Following the end of the sub-participation period in February 2016, as further detailed in Note 6, the Group commenced the foreclosure process of transferring development land collateral into its direct ownership. Consequently, the cost of the development land collateral attaching to the relevant Project Clear distressed loan assets is now shown within inventories. The carrying value of this collateral property at 31 December 2016 was EUR130.9 million.
During the year, assets attached to 15 of the original distressed loans acquired, with a total cost of EUR201.1 million, have transferred from development land collateral to directly owned land held for development. In addition, the Group realised proceeds of EUR4.5 million from the sale of residential properties and EUR4.2 million from the sale of residential sites acquired as collateral properties in Project Clear, which are included in revenue (Note 2).

EUR27 million of restricted cash is required to be maintained in an interest-bearing blocked deposit for the duration of the Group's senior debt facilities (Note 11), as part of the collateral for those facilities. The estimated fair value of restricted cash at 31 December 2016 is EUR27 million.
2016 2015 --------------------------- -------- -------- EUR'000 EUR'000 --------------------------- -------- -------- Current --------------------------- -------- -------- Cash and cash equivalents 45,645 6,551 --------------------------- ======== ========
Cash deposits are made for varying short-term periods depending on the immediate cash requirements of the Group. All deposits can be withdrawn without significant changes in value and accordingly the fair value of current cash and cash equivalents is identical to the carrying value.

16. Business Combination
On 21 April 2016, the Company acquired 100% of the share capital of Argentum Property Holdco Limited ("Argentum") for a consideration of EUR91.2 million. This acquisition had been conditional on the successful completion of the Company's Firm Placing and Placing and Open Offer. The purpose of the acquisition was to acquire Argentum's business of the development of residential properties at Ashbourne, Naas, Greystones, Griffith Avenue, Dollymount and Swords.
The fair value of recognised amounts of assets acquired and liabilities assumed were as follows:
EUR'000 Inventories 94,324 Receivables 1,050 Deposit paid 1,600 Cash and cash equivalents 818 Current liabilities (1,178) Deferred tax liability (5,427) Total Fair Values of Net Assets Acquired 91,187 Consideration satisfied by: Cash paid to date (including EUR5 million deposit paid in 2015) 91,074 To be paid 113 Consideration Fair Value 91,187
The total fair value of assets acquired was EUR91.2 million, which has been satisfied by the cash consideration of EUR91.2 million, consisting of a deposit of EUR5 million paid in 2015 and a payment of EUR86.1 million in 2016, with EUR0.1 million payable in 2017. Inventories of EUR94.3 million reflect the fair value, as at the date of acquisition, of development properties owned by Argentum and a conditional purchase contract to acquire the Greystones site. The purchase of the Greystones site completed at a cost of EUR14.4 million on August 24 2016, which was paid to the vendors of the Greystones site and is separate from the business combination. The combined total of the consideration for the Argentum business and the payment to complete the Greystones site purchase was EUR105.6 million.
Transaction costs relating to the business combination of EUR1.4 million have been charged to profit or loss in accordance with IFRS 3. As the acquisition of a business (as opposed to site purchases) is a non-routine transaction for the Group, which is not currently expected to recur on a regular basis, these have been classified as an exceptional item.
From the acquisition date to 31 December 2016, this acquisition contributed revenue of EUR0.3 million and profit of nil to the consolidated results of the Group. If the acquisition had occurred with effect from the beginning of the period, it would have contributed revenue of EUR0.3 million and profit of nil to the consolidated results of the Group for the period.
17. Commitments and contingent liabilities
The Group has a conditional contract to acquire a directly adjoining lot to its Cherrywood site at a cost of EUR9.2 million, on the grant of planning consent for that site
The Group has contracted to pay the vendors a further EUR8.75 million in the event that the Swords site (acquired as part of the Argentum transaction) (Note 16), is successfully rezoned as residential by 31 December 2018.
The Group has also contractually committed to acquiring the remainder of a site in Delgany, Co. Wicklow in May 2018 at a cost of EUR14.25 million.
