By Shikun Binui Ltd., PRNESaturday, May 28, 2011
RAMAT GAN, Israel, May 29, 2011 -
- First Quarter Net Income totaled NIS 122 million: Growth of 14%
compared with Q1 of 2010
- Growth of 22% in Revenues from Projects and Sales to NIS 1.3 billion
- Gross Profit increased to 24% compared with 20% in Q1 of 2010 to a
total of NIS 323 million
Ofer Kotler, CEO of Shikun & Binui: "In the first quarter of the year,
the Group continued the growth and expansion of its operations in all of its
growth engines. The Group has the know-how, capabilities and financial
resources that will facilitate further growth and expansion in the volume of
its activity in Israel and internationally and continue to create value for
shareholders."
Key events during and subsequent to the first quarter and significant
results:
- The Group's orders backlog in the construction and infrastructures
segment totaled NIS 8.8 billion on 31.3.2011, of which NIS 6.8 billion
($2 billion) originates in the Group's operations outside of Israel.
- In March, the Group announced a cash dividend distribution to
shareholders of NIS 200 million, representing NIS 0.498 per share. Last
year, the Group distributed a dividend of NIS 110 million, representing
NIS 0.274 per share.
- Shikun & Binui Real Estate sold 300 housing units in the first quarter
of the year for a total of NIS 501 million. Shikun & Binui Real Estate
signed an agreement with the Hadera Economic Corporation for the
construction of a park, shopping mall and commercial center. Subsequent
to the end of the quarter, the Company was awarded a tender for the
construction of 256 housing units in the city Rosh Ha'ayin.
- The first two buildings of Shikun & Binui Real Estate in Carcour, which
were designed and built in accordance with Israel Green Standard 5281
were awarded the Green Standard - certification under Standard 5281 by
the Standards Institute. Both buildings were built according to the
stringent Green Construction standards.
- During the First Quarter, the Group recognized impairment of NIS 16
million, in the wake of a decision by the government of Spain to
temporarily suspend the tariffs for electricity from photovoltaic
sources generated in the Ulmeda Project, in which the Group holds 50%.
- The subsidiary, Solel Boneh, was awarded a Design & Build tender
totaling NIS 55 million, for the design and construction of the first
stage of Highway 531 from Kfar Sava to Herzliya.
Revenues from projects and sales totaled NIS 1.3 billion in the Quarter,
growth of 22% compared with the first quarter of last year.
Most of the growth was driven from the real estate development in Israel
segment: growth of 83.5% in revenues and NIS 301 million resulting from the
accelerated rate of homes that were populated (171 units in the reporting
period, compared with 106 units in Q1 of 2010), and from the proceeds of
sales of lots and land (NIS 56 million compared with NIS 25 million in the
first quarter of last year).
Revenues from the infrastructures and constructions outside of Israel
segment had 10% growth, an increase of NIS 59 million, with expansion of
activity in the countries in which it operates.
Revenues from the concessions segment, which totaled NIS 63 million, were
driven by work on the project to rehabilitate and maintain roads in northern
Israel, which commenced in the second quarter of last year.
During the quarter, the dollar exchange rate had an offsetting effect on
revenue growth, due to its impact on the revenues of the infrastructures and
construction outside of Israel segment. Had the dollar exchange rate in the
quarter not decreased in comparison with the first quarter of 2010, gross
profit of the infrastructures and construction outside of Israel segment
would have increased by an additional NIS 27 million.
Gross profit totaled NIS 323 million (24% of revenues), increasing 49%
when compared with Q1 2010 (20% of revenues). Most of the increase refers to
Real Estate development (increase of 86% in gross profit). Due to housing
units prices increase that were populated in this quarter compared with the
first quarter of last year. The gross profit in the infrastructure and
building sector in Israel has increased in 62.5% and the gross profit outside
of Israel infrastructure and construction sector has increased in 29.5%. Had
the dollar exchange rate in the quarter not decreased in comparison with the
first quarter of 2010, gross profit of the infrastructures and construction
outside of Israel segment would have increased by an additional NIS 10
million.
General and administrative expenses totaled NIS 80 million (6% of
revenues), compared with NIS 72 million in the first quarter of last year
(6.6% of revenues). The growth was driven by the increase in tender expenses
and project initiation (NIS 5.5 million) and by marketing expenses (NIS 2.5
million).
Operating income totaled NIS 242 million (18.2% of revenues), 78% higher
than in the first quarter of last year (12.5% of revenues). Operating income
of the real estate development in Israel segment posted growth of 142%.
Operating income of the infrastructures and construction outside of Israel
segment increased by 36.9%.
Net financing costs totaled NIS 39 million in the quarter, compared with
NIS 13 million in the first quarter last year, due mainly to the increase in
expenses for short-term credit, which were impacted by changes in the
Consumer Price Index. In the reporting period, the CPI rose by 0.87%,
compared with a decrease of 0.95% in the same quarter last year.
Group equity in losses of investees accounted for by the equity method
totaled a loss of NIS 31 million, compared with income of NIS 13 million in
the first quarter of last year. The loss was due mainly to the increase in
the loss attributed to the effect of the revaluation of the State's option on
the results of Derech Eretz, as well as to the impairment recognized by the
photovoltaic electricity-producing affiliate in Spain.
Net income totaled NIS 122 million, an increase of 14% over the first
quarter of last year.
Cash flows from operating activities totaled NIS 1 million, compared with
NIS 53 million in the same quarter last year. The decrease was due mainly to
the temporary slowdown in collections, due to the presidential elections
conducted in several of the countries in which the Group operates
internationally.
The Group does not revalue its investment property and they are presented
in the financial statements at historical cost.
Equity as of March 31, 2011 totaled NIS 775 million, compared with NIS
875 million at the end of 2010. The decrease in equity is due to the NIS 200
dividend distribution that was offset by the quarter's net income.
The Company has cash and cash equivalents balances totaling NIS 1.2
billion and an unutilized credit facility totaling NIS 929 million.
Total assets in the balance sheet amounted to NIS 8.5 billion.
Doron Blachar, Group CFO: The quarter's results reflect the expansion of
the Group's activities in the various operating segments and reflect the
change that the Company has undergone. The Group's financial strength, which
has been built throughout the period, supports continuation of the expansion
of operations and improvement of business results, and will enable the
Company to participate in the numerous infrastructure tenders being issued in
Israel.
