High average occupancy, improving asset valuations, increasing market rents, reducing Central Bank rates and stable average Rouble exchange rates in 2019 have all contributed to improved results. Together, they have supported an increase in underlying earnings to £43.2 million (2018: £20.0 million), a significant swing in IFRS earnings to £46.0 million (2018: loss of £120.7 million) and a jump in basic net asset value per share from 48p at the end of 2018 to 76p at 31 December 2019. As you will read in this Annual Report, the executive team focus in the last 12 months has been diverted to deal with shareholder issues. We have purchased and contracted to purchase 38% of our ordinary shares from our two largest institutional holders. It has been a distracting and stressful period for our senior executive team, but the enhancements are well worth the effort and I’d like to congratulate them all on their determination to secure these transactions. As I write, the issues with Coronavirus are on all personal and business agendas. This has now been exacerbated by the oil price crash and the impact that has had on Rouble exchange rates. We have agreed an extension to the back stop date to acquire our shares from Invesco as a direct consequence of this. We have yet to see any tangible effect on our trading operations but we are progressing with caution. As we continue with our Board succession planning, I am sorry to say that Christopher Sherwell will be stepping down as a Non Executive Director at the AGM. Christopher has been an exemplary Senior Independent Director and Chair of the Remuneration Committee and will be missed. We are actively searching for new members of the non executive team and hope to make an announcement soon. All in all, a good year but with mixed emotions on the loss of two long term shareholders and supporters of the Company and we will continue into 2020 with a cautious approach given the wider issues in play today.
