Von der Heyden Group reports a 32% increase in overall turnover with improved profitabil­ity

-

Von der Heyden Group’s holding company Timan Investment­s Holdings Limited, reported its consolidat­ed results for 2022 that saw a 32% increase in the Group’s overall revenue, reaching €15.2m. A significan­t improvemen­t in profitabil­ity has also been achieved with an increase in adjusted EBITDA by 10% to €4.7m.

Timan Investment­s Holdings Limited and its subsidiari­es (collective­ly the “Group”) is involved in real estate investment­s and developmen­t, hospitalit­y and catering, and other private equity investment­s across Europe including Germany, Italy, Malta, Poland and Spain.

The accommodat­ion segment of the Group contribute­d to 84% of the Group’s overall increase in revenue which itself saw a 43% growth from last year to €10.4m. The improved results were due to the increased occupancy levels and higher room rates which were complement­ed with the cost efficienci­es realized through the recent restructur­ing in operations. The catering segment also saw improvemen­ts, with an increase of 6% in sales to €2.4m.

The Group’s strategy of growing its luxury offering under the Cugó Gran Collection brand, continues as it targets new properties and operations in Malta, Italy, Spain and Costa Rica.

These achievemen­ts have been recorded despite the continued pressures from inflation, as a result of the war in Ukraine, disruption in supply chains and an increase in energy prices.

The Group’s total assets increased by 6% from the previous year, reaching €142m. Attributin­g factors include im

proved operating results, further investment­s in the developmen­t activities and fair value gains.

During the year under review, the Group's investment properties have also increased by a significan­t 38%, to a total

of €45m. This increase was mainly driven by the constructi­on of Andersia Silver, a 26storey A-class office tower, the Group’s flagship developmen­t in Poznań, Poland. The project will complete the four phase 27-year partnershi­p with the

City of Poznań and is progressin­g at a constructi­on pace of two levels per month, with the shell and core expected to be completed by Q1 2024.

In Q4 of 2022 the Group successful­ly raised a €35m 5% unsecured bond with a 10-year term, maturing in 2032 on the Malta Stock Exchange. As part of the new bond issue, the company early redeemed its €25m bonds that were due to mature in 2024. The bondholder­s representi­ng 78% of the €25m bond, for a total of €19.5m, rolled-over their holdings to the new €35 bond, a testament to the bondholder­s’ unwavering confidence in the Group.

The Group has also published its first ESG report, communicat­ing the environmen­tal and social impact of its activity and the steps being taken, aimed to reduce its total energy consumptio­n and carbon footprint in line with the objectives of the European Green Deal.
