Tejoori Limited
("Tejoori" or the "Company")
Interim results for the six months ended 31 December 2014
Chairman's Statement
Welcome to the results of Tejoori Limited ("Tejoori" or the "Company"), the Dubai-based Shari'a compliant investment company, for the six month period ending 31 December 2014.
Financial performance during the period under review
As at 31 December 2014, the Company had cash available for investment of USD 3,598,746 (31 December 2013: USD 4,058,090). As at 31 December 2014, USD 3,590,030 of the cash available for investment was placed on short term wakala deposits which carry a profit rate of 5 per cent per annum. This was in line with the board's strategy of placing a significant portion of the Company's available cash on wakala deposits. During the period under review Tejoori generated income of USD 77,226 from these wakala deposits (six months ended 31 December 2013: USD 219,746) and a net profit of USD 26,481 (six months ended 31 December 2013: net profit of USD 89,175).
Operational highlights
No new investments were made in the period as the existing investment portfolio continues to mature. The Company has maintained its position in cash and Wakala deposits.
Existing investments
Arjan Plots
As announced on 17 December 2012, Tejoori successfully entered into settlement agreements to cancel the sale and purchase agreements with regards to its investment in the Lagoons Plots Development in Dubai. At the same time Tejoori also entered into an agreement to acquire 3 replacement plots of land in Dubai Land, namely the Arjan Plots. Under these arrangements, the final deferred consideration payment of approximately USD 320,000 was paid by Tejoori in February 2014 and the Group does not hold any further liability towards the acquisition of the Arjan Plots. Whilst the third Arjan Plot has been fully acquired by the Company the title deed for the third plot has not yet been granted in the Company's name.
Tejoori is considering options for either developing the plots in conjunction with real estate developers or selling them off in their current state. The board of Tejoori is continuing to evaluate the options for the Arjan Plots with a view to maximising value for Tejoori shareholders.
BEKON Holding AG
As at the date of this announcement Tejoori retains a 10.1% equity interest in BEKON Holding AG ("BEKON"). BEKON specialises in the construction and operation of biogas plants for the generation of electricity and gas injection, as well as the production of compost and organic fertilizer.
Outlook
We expect the company to be more active in the current financial year. The Board will continue to work towards strengthening the Company's investment portfolio and delivering value to shareholders.
