Tejoori Limited

("Tejoori" or the "Company")

 

Interim results for the six months ended 31 December 2012

 

 

Chairman's Statement

 

Welcome to the interim results of Tejoori Limited for the six month period ending 31 December 2012.Tejoori is a Dubai-based, Shari'a-compliant investment company.

 

As at 31 December 2012, the Company had cash available for investment of USD 5,066,829 (31 December 2011: USD 4,095,298).As at 31 December 2012, USD 4,924,131 of the cash available for investment was placed on short term Wakala deposits which carry a profit rate of 5 per cent. per annum.

 

During the period under review Tejoori generated income of USD 55,394 (six months ended 31 December 2011: USD 67,841) and a net profit of USD 10,164 (six months ended 31 December 2011: net loss of USD 35,878).

 

The activities of the Company during the period were as follows:

 

Successful Acquisition of Arjan Plots:

As announced by the Company on 17th December, 2012, Tejoori successfully settled the long standing issue regarding its investment in the Lagoons Plots development, following an agreement being entered into with Dubai Properties to consolidate the Lagoons plots into the acquisition of three plots in Arjan, a commercial and residential community, located in Dubai Land (the "Arjan Plots").

 

·; Status of the Arjan Plots:

The consideration already paid by Tejoori for its investment in the Lagoons plots of USD 13.62m was offset against the consideration payable by Tejoori for the acquisition of the Arjan Plots. Through this arrangement, two of the three Arjan Plots have been fully paid for and have no further consideration payable towards them. As a result we have also obtained the "title deeds" for both the plots in the name of Tejoori.

 

The balance due by Tejoori, being USD 1.92m, is payable by the Company over a period of 18 months in six equal instalments. Once this has been settled the title deed for the third Arjan Plot will be granted in the Company's name.

 

·; Tejoori's future strategy for the Arjan Plots:

The Board is reviewing various options with regards to the development of the Arjan Plots, including: for Tejoori to develop the plots itself; to sell the plots to a third party un-developed; or to undertake a joint venture with well-established real estate developers in the UAE, who can assist in the development, promotion and eventual sale of the plots on behalf of Tejoori. As detailed in the statement released after the annual general meeting on 11 February 2013, Tejoori are in discussions with a highly regarded development company for them being the Company's development partner. All the options are still under review and once finalised the outcome will be shared with our shareholders.

Outlook

 

Following the successful acquisition of the Arjan Plots, and the plans under consideration for their development, we expect the company to be more active in the current financial period. The Board will continue to work towards strengthening the Company's investment portfolio and delivering value to shareholders.

Other receivables include an amount of USD 3.1 million receivable from the potential disposal of the Group's interest in an investment property (Note 4) which was fully impaired at 30 June 2011.

 

The Group had committed and invested a total of EUR 1.5 million (USD 1.9 million) in a joint venture with Martin Hage for the development of an innovative safety system for motor vehicles designed to significantly improve vehicular safety standards. The advance was considered to be irrecoverable and had been fully provided for.

 

 

3 Available-for-sale investment

 

The available-for-sale investment represents an unquoted investment in the BEKON Group, carried at cost and not assessed for impairment. During the year ended 30 June 2007, the Group entered into an agreement to invest up to EUR 6 million to acquire a 16.7% equity interest in the BEKON Group, the holding company of a group of entities focused on the development, construction, marketing and operation of biogas, energy and waste treatment plants.

 

During the year ended 31 June 2012, BEKON Group increased its capital by USD 3,810,130. The Group has not participated in the capital increase and, accordingly, its investment in the BEKON Group has been diluted to 12.67%.

Advance towards acquisition of investment property (including the premium paid on the plots and the legal and administration costs) previously amounted to USD 33.8 million and represented an advance towards acquisition of three plots of land in the Lagoon project in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. On 26 October 2008, the Group entered into a contract to sell its interest in one of the plots for USD 12.6 million of which USD 3.1 million was receivable and fully impaired at 30 June 2011 (Note 2). The Group, however, continues to hold the legal and beneficial interest in the plot until the balance of the USD 3.1 million is paid by the prospective acquirer of the plot.

 

In December 2012 the Group finalised negotiations with the developer to apply the amounts advanced against all the three plots of land towards the acquisition of the three new plots of land in the Arjan area in Dubai for USD 15.5 million, which includes a further commitment from Tejoori of USD 1.92 million over a period of 18 months. The acquisition value of the new three plots was based on a rate equivalent to the rate as per the Dubai Land Department's evaluation of the plot price in that area during May 2011.

 

Accordingly, the Group has also received the Title deeds for the two new plots of land which they have fully paid for.
