Managing Director's Statement
I am delighted to report a strong six months to 30 September 2015. Safeland has generated a significant increase in both turnover and profit. This period has been positively impacted by the completion of a number of developments, including two phases of the Wimbledon development, the last phases of which are due for completion in the second half of the year. Shareholders should be aware that this is to some extent a function of timing of completions of projects and does not necessarily reflect potential second half performance.
The Board continues to focus on maximising the value of stock held, through obtaining planning consents and then developing the properties for onward sale.
During the period, the Company participated in a placing of shares by Safestay plc, acquiring 1,070,864 shares in Safestay at a cost of GBP663,935, bringing its total holding to 1,420,864, representing 4.3% of Safestay's issued share capital.
On 25 September 2015, the Company paid a final dividend of 1.75p per share for the year ended 31 March 2015. I am pleased to announce that the Board has declared an interim dividend for the six months ended 30 September 2015 of 1.5p per share payable on 18 December 2015 to shareholders on the register on 27 November 2015.
Outlook
The property market is at extremely high levels, with conflicting signs. On the one hand record prices are being achieved, whilst there are also signs of strong resistance to these levels in certain sectors, leading to pockets of stagnation. It is difficult to anticipate the true substance of the underlying strength of the market, and whilst the Board is confident it has the skills necessary to continue to make opportunistic acquisitions in any market, its current approach is to be very selective in what may prove to be too aggressive an environment.
