إعلان نتائج شركة سوليدير المالية للعام 2021

 تعلن الشركة اللبنانية لتطوير وإعادة إعمار وسط مدينة بيروت (سوليدير) ش.م.ل. عن نتائجها المالية المدققة المستقلة للعام 2021 والتي تظهر خسائر بلغت حوالي 21.5 مليون دولار.

وتعود الخسارة الى عدم تحقيق واحتساب مبيعات إضافية مبرمة خلال العام 2021 بقيمة حوالي 63 مليون دولار ومسدد ثمنها بالكامل وذلك بسبب عدم إنجاز المعاملات الإدارية العائدة لها نتيجة الإغلاق المتكرر للدوائر العقارية، وسوف يتم تحقيق واحتساب هذه البيوعات خلال الفترة اللاحقة بعد إنجاز معاملاتها.

  وعلى الرغم من التطورات الدراماتيكية الكبيرة على جميع الأصعدة السياسية والأمنية والاقتصادية والاجتماعية والصحية والتي كان لها أثرا سلبيا على القطاع العقاري ودورا كبيرا في تراجع النشاط الاقتصادي والتجاري في لبنان، تمكنت الشركة من تحقيق واحتساب مبيعات ملموسة بقيمة حوالي 85 مليون دولار ناتجة عن بيع عدد من المستثمرين المحليين لعدد من العقارات في وسط بيروت خلال العام 2021.

Intended Delisting from the London Stock Exchange

Bank Audi s.a.l. (the “Bank”) announces that it expects the cancellation of the listing of its Global Depositary Receipts (the “GDRs”) (ISINs: US0605721127 and US0605721044) from the Official List of the UK Financial Conduct Authority and the cancellation of the admission to trading of its GDRs from the London Stock Exchange to occur on 16 November 2020.

BLC Bank SAL publishes the Report of the Board of Directors addressed to the Annual General Meeting.

Bank Audi s.a.l. (the “Bank”) announces that it has applied for the cancellation of the listing of its Global Depositary Receipts (the “GDRs”) (ISIN: US0605721044) from the Official List of the UK Financial Conduct Authority and the cancellation of the admission to trading of its GDRs from the London Stock Exchange with effect from 6 November 2020.

1. Reason for the Delisting

The Bank applied for the cancellation for the listing and trading of its GDRs due to the low volume of GDRs traded on the London Stock Exchange. The Bank believes that, given the limited liquidity of the GDRs, the costs and administrative burden of maintaining the listing of the GDRs on the Official List and admission to trading on the London Stock Exchange are disproportionate to the benefits thereof. 

2. Continuation of Listing on the Beirut Stock Exchange

Each GDR represents one common shares of the Bank (the “Shares”). The Shares of the Bank represented by the GDRs, as well as the GDRs, will continue to be listed and traded on the Beirut Stock Exchange. 

3. Global Deposit Receipt Programme

The Bank is not terminating its Global Deposit Receipt Programme. Accordingly, following the delisting from the London Stock Exchange, all GDRs will remain outstanding.

This announcement is made by Byblos Bank S.A.L. in respect of the U.S.$300,000,000 6.5% Convertible Fiduciary Notes due 2022 issued on a fiduciary basis by The Bank of New York Mellon (Luxembourg) S.A. (since replaced as Fiduciary by Mitsubishi UFG Global Custody S.A.) for the sole purpose of financing a subordinated loan to the Bank. The Fiduciary Notes are pass-through instruments and, as such, do not constitute direct debt obligations of the Fiduciary. The Fiduciary’s payment obligations in respect of the Fiduciary Notes are conditional upon the receipt of payments by the Bank in respect of the Subordinated Loan. The Fiduciary is not obliged to pay amounts under the Fiduciary Notes from its own funds.  Under the Terms and Conditions of the Fiduciary Notes, the Bank shall (in accordance with Central Bank Decision № 6830) pay interest on the subordinated loan (which would then be passed on to the holders of the Fiduciary Notes) if the Bank has Sufficient Available Profit for the Relevant Quarter, being the calendar quarter when the interest payment is due.  In light of the ongoing severe financial, political and fiscal crises in the Lebanese Republic, including the continuing suspension of the Republic’s payments on its Eurobonds and the corresponding impact on the financial condition of Lebanese banks, including the Bank, as well as the effects of the explosion at the Beirut (which caused at least 170 deaths and over 6,500 other casualties, displaced an estimated 300,000 people and extensively damaged property over a wide area of Beirut), the Bank’s management has determined that the Bank will not have Sufficient Available Profits for the Relevant Quarter for the quarter ending 30 September 2020 or any profit at all.  (Continue reading)
