15/3/2018 08:36	- Savills, the international real estate adviser, increased its underlying profit by 3.5% to £140.5m in 2017. Revenues rose by 11% to £1.6bn. The group's statutory profit before tax increased by 13% to £112.4m. The total dividend for the year has been increased by 4% to 30.2p per share. Transaction Advisory revenue grew by 13%, Consultancy business revenue by 14% and Property Management revenue by 9%, including the full year effect of the 2016 UK acquisition of GBR Phoenix Beard. Savills' Commercial Transaction business grew revenue by 15% with strong performances in many markets including the UK and significant growth in the Asia Pacific region, in particular, Hong Kong, China, Japan and Australia. The Residential businesses withstood challenging conditions achieving revenue growth of over 6%. Savills Investment Management assets under management increased to £14.6bn from £13.9bn. Investment Management revenue declined, reflecting the reduced level of disposal transactions from the liquidating SEB German Open Ended Funds Savills inherited as part of the acquisition of SEB Asset Management in 2015. The reduction in transaction fees in the Investment Management business, together with a decline in the volume of larger complex transactions in the US and the costs of expansion in a number of markets, restricted the underlying profit margin to 8.8% (2016: 9.4%). The statutory pre-tax profit margin remained stable at 7.0% (2016: 6.9%), with lower acquisition-related costs and profits on disposal of investments offsetting the expansion costs and decline in the US business. Jeremy Helsby, group chief executive, said: "Savills has delivered another strong performance in 2017. Revenue and profits grew in each of our global Transaction Advisory, Consultancy and Property Management businesses despite challenging conditions in a number of markets. The strength of our business in key transactional markets across the globe, including a highly resilient performance in our UK residential business, were key to this result. "Throughout the year we maintained our focus on delivering exceptional service to our clients and continued to build on our global network through complementary acquisitions and new team hires. "We have made a solid start to 2018 with a pipeline of business carried over from last year in many markets, although this is against the backdrop of heightened market uncertainty, geopolitical risks and rising interest rates. We anticipate a tempering of the strong transaction volumes of recent times in some markets; however, at this early stage in the year our expectations for 2018 remain unchanged."	broadwood	Read Full Thread Reply

16/1/2018 12:51	Beating expectations _ Asia Pacific strong London buyers. e Group experienced a stronger than anticipated finish to the year in a number of our businesses around the world. In addition to substantial commercial transaction volumes in both the UK and a number of Asian and European markets, the relative resilience of Savills UK Residential transaction business, which achieved year-on-year revenue growth in challenging markets, was of particular note. Accordingly, the Group now anticipates that underlying results for the year to 31 December 2017 will be ahead of our previous expectations. In the UK, we saw increased market share in commercial transactions, primarily as a result of relatively robust occupier demand and continued strong investment interest from the Asia Pacific region. Our Less Transactional businesses, both in the UK and globally, performed in line with our expectations.	broadwood	Read Full Thread Reply

10/8/2017 08:14	- Savills' group revenue grew by 7% at constant currency to £714.4m in the first half of the year, with underlying profit up 5% to £48.1m. Transaction advisory revenue was up 15%, reflecting strong performances in Asia, Europe and the UK commercial market, which offset a slight decline in UK residential revenue. Property management revenue rose 13% and consultancy revenue increased by 15%. At Savills Investment Management, revenue rose by 22%. Jeremy Helsby, group chief executive of Savills, said: "In an environment of ongoing political and economic uncertainty, we continue to anticipate that our performance for the full year will be in line with the board's expectations." Currency had a positive impact on reported group performance increasing revenue by £47.2m and underlying profit by £3.1m. Statutory profit before tax, including deferred consideration provisions and acquisition and restructuring costs was £32.4m, 27% higher than the first half of 2016. Savills made incremental acquisitions and team hires for the Savills Studley platform in the US, including the acquisition of Cresa Partners Orange County (California). It also recruited a significant capital markets team in New York, the costs of which affected US profits in the period. In the UK, it acquired a commercial real estate service provider in Guernsey and in Europe it invested in a new start-up in the Czech Republic. These expenditures caused the group's underlying profit margin to fall to 6.7% from 6.9% the year before. Savills increased the interim dividend by 6% to 4.65p per share.	broadwood	Read Full Thread Reply
10/8/2017 07:06	Looking good. Savills has delivered a great first half performance across the Group driven, in particular, by strong growth in Asia and a resilient performance in the UK. In line with our overall growth strategy, we have continued to build on the Savills Studley platform in the US, particularly our Capital Markets business, with recruitment and incremental acquisition activity across the country. In addition, we have continued to invest in our Asian platform and, since the period end, in Europe we have announced the acquisitions of Larry Smith and Aguirre Newman, further strengthening our positions in Italy and Spain respectively. Continued growth in our less transactional businesses, significant overseas earnings and strong market shares in many of our most important transactional locations position the Group to withstand short term reductions in local activity and to capitalise on the opportunities which we expect to emerge. In an environment of ongoing political and economic uncertainty, we continue to anticipate that our performance for the full year will be in line with the Board's expectations	broadwood	Read Full Thread Reply

09/5/2017 15:59	In today's Annual General Meeting statement from Savills, the Company said that during the year it has traded in line with expectations and ahead of the corresponding period in 2016. "In the UK commercial markets, Savills has maintained a significant share of the Prime Central London investment and leasing markets, although market uncertainty continues to affect transactional volumes," Savills said. "Outside London, our transactional volumes and Professional and Development services have grown over the comparable period in 2016. "As expected, volumes in the UK Prime Residential market have been lower in the year to date compared with the very strong comparable period in advance of April 2016's increase in Stamp Duty. Our UK Rural business has performed better than anticipated. The period leading up to the UK General Election is expected to have a short term adverse impact on residential transaction activity over the next few weeks. "Savills Asia Pacific business has had a very strong start to the year. We have seen substantial underlying revenue and profit growth in the year to date, with Hong Kong, Australia and Japan all ahead of our expectations; in addition, our reported results continue to benefit from the effect of Sterling weakness. "In the US, Savills Studley has had a slower start to the year than initially anticipated with some occupier transaction deferrals. However, the pipeline of activity for the remainder of the year remains good. In addition we have continued to expand our footprint with acquisitions and significant recruitment in Southern California, Denver, Colorado and a Capital Markets team in New York. "In Continental Europe, to date we have traded in line with our expectations, with France, the Netherlands, Spain and Italy experiencing a particularly strong start to the year. "Globally, our Consultancy and Property Management businesses have delivered continued revenue growth with particular strengths in the UK and Asia. "Following a strong year in 2016, Savills Investment Management has grown revenue and profits as anticipated for the period to date as we near the end of the disposal of assets within the liquidating German Open Ended Funds under the SEB brand. "While we have started the year well, typically the first four months represent a disproportionately small element of the expected outturn for the full year. Against a political and economic backdrop which demonstrates greater levels of uncertainty than a few months ago, we continue to anticipate that our performance will remain in line with our expectations."	broadwood	Read Full Thread Reply

22/3/2017 07:25	Happy enough with this. Savills has lifted its FY pretax profit by 1%, revenue by 13% and total dividend by 12% in what it described as a another record performance against a backcloth of geopolitical distractions in some markets. Pretax proft was £99.,8m, from £98.6m, with revenue coming in at £1.445bn, from £1.283bn. Total dividend was up 12% to 29p a share, from 26p. CEO Jeremy Helsby said overall Savills had delivered another record performance in 2016 despite the geopolitical distractions in some of its markets. "We benefited from the scale of our operations across the globe, which have grown substantially over recent years, as well as a highly resilient performance in the UK," said Helsby. "Our less transactional businesses, particularly Property Management and Investment Management grew strongly while our global Transaction Advisory business produced a solid performance despite variable conditions in many markets," he added. Savills had entered 2017 with a continuation of global macro-economic concerns, rising bond yields, uncertainty over the impact of Brexit negotiations in the UK and Continental Europe and a new administration in the US. "We have started the year well and our expectations for the full year remain unchanged."	broadwood	Read Full Thread Reply

12/1/2017 07:24	Surprisingly strong performance. But still rightly cautious for coming year. The Group experienced a strong finish to the year with the completion of significant volumes of commercial and residential transactions in a number of our businesses around the world and benefited from further sterling devaluation. Accordingly, the Group now anticipates that underlying results for the year to 31 December 2016 will be meaningfully ahead of our previous expectations	broadwood	Read Full Thread Reply
