Chairman's statement

I am pleased to report that operating profit for the year under review has increased by 25.21% (GBP358,000) after a 2.01% increase in turnover on the previous year. About half of the development land in Houston in which Heavitree Inc. holds a 5.26% interest was sold returning a profit of GBP104,000. Compensation and a pay back of legal fees following a land dispute at one of our houses added GBP36,000 to the operating profit line; as did a GBP107,000 reduction in the expense for bad debts. Our team, of course, always works hard year on year on cash management, but this is a particularly impressive result and it is a most welcome addition to an already strong contribution performance.

Results

Group Turnover increased by GBP144,000 to GBP7,299,000. Group Operating Profit has increased by GBP358,000 to GBP1,778,000.

Heavitree Inns has remained dormant throughout the year.

Heavitree Inc. generated an operating profit of GBP104,000 (2016 - loss of GBP16,000).

Key Performance Indicators

Adjusted operating profit before Taxation of GBP1,778,000 was up 25.21% on last year.

Interest costs were covered 10.16 times.

Dividend

The Directors recommend a 6.67 % increase in the final dividend to 4.00p per Ordinary and 'A' Limited Voting Ordinary Share (2016 - 3.75p) making a total for the year of 7.675p. The dividend will be paid on 20 April 2018, subject to shareholder approval at the Annual General Meeting on 11 April 2018, to those shareholders on the Register at 23 March 2018.

Sale of Property

The Pen and Quill in Taunton was sold generating a small loss in the year of GBP5,000. Impairments on this site had been absorbed in the accounts of previous years. Since this year's accounts were finalised The King of Prussia in Bovey Tracey has been sold. This house was closed in 2009 with a small rental income retained from the letting of the flat. The pub will be converted into a community facility.

At the time of writing a small residential property on Topsham Road in Exeter, The Crown and Sceptre in Newton St.Cyres (which closed in June 2017) and The Kings Arms in Strete (which closed in September 2016) are on the market with sales agreed, subject to contract on the two pub sites. Also, four flats and a house which are part of the residential development at the old St.Loye's Hotel site in Exeter which was completed in 2012 have been marketed for sale. Here too a sale has been agreed, subject to contract, for all of these units. I shall report further on these at the Half-Year.

Capital Investments

I reported the successful completion of the development of the Dartmoor Halfway in Bickington at the Half-Year. Further improvements to the camping facilities and caravan pitches have been carried out to make the house ready for the season in 2018. No further major developments are planned for the present year.

Pension Scheme

At the time of writing, draft figures for the triennial valuation which fell due on 1 January 2017 have been received. The accounts that accompany this report include the previously signed off numbers and, as stated before, the Company remains committed to the funding of its obligations to its closed final salary scheme.

Repurchase of shares

The Company did not repurchase any of its own shares during the year under review but the Directors intend to seek shareholder approval at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting for the continuing authority to do so.

Outlook

I am extremely grateful to our team at Head Office and to all the personnel in each of our houses for the hard work and innovation that has helped produce the numbers which are reported in these accounts. I can report that the new year has started satisfactorily as well.

I look forward to reporting on the sales of the properties mentioned above. With uncertainty in the market place caused by Brexit and interest rates beginning to rise, reduction of debt would seem the sensible way forward.
