Ina Invest Holding Ltd (the Company) is a Swiss company domiciled at Binzmühlestrasse 11, Zurich, Switzerland. The Company’s consolidated interim financial statements cover the Company and its subsidiaries (referred to collectively as “the Group” or “Ina Invest”). The individual companies are to be considered group companies.
The Group’s business activities comprise developing and building of real estate and construction projects of all kinds, planning and completion of new buildings and conversions of real estate held by Ina Invest, as well as holding, managing, renting and brokering of real estate.
The consolidated interim financial statements were prepared in accordance Swiss GAAP FER 31 “Complementary recommendations for listed companies” and provides a true and fair view of the Group’s assets, financial situation and earnings. It shall be read in conjunction with the consolidated annual financial statements as of 31 December 2020, as it represents and update of this and compared to an annual financial statement, allows for abbreviations in presentation and disclosures. The accounting principles applied in these interim financial statements correspond to those applied in the consolidated annual financial statements as of 31 December 2020. The consolidated interim financial statements comply with the provisions of Swiss law. The Group discloses the additional information required for real estate companies by the Swiss stock exchange (SIX Swiss Exchange) (Article 17 of the Directive on Financial Reporting of SIX Swiss Exchange).
The consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared under the assumption of going concern for the Group’s business. Valuations in the consolidated interim financial statements are based on historical acquisition or production costs, unless a standard prescribes another valuation basis for an item in the financial statements or another value was used based on an accounting policy choice. This is the case for the investment properties presented in note 2.2, which were measured at fair value.
The consolidated interim financial statements are presented in Swiss francs (CHF), the Company’s functional currency. Unless otherwise stated, all financial information is presented in Swiss francs, rounded to the nearest thousand.
The comparative period only includes 3 months in which Ina Invest was not yet fully operational. A comparison of the comparative period is therefore limited.
The consolidated interim financial statements are based on the stand-alone financial statements prepared in accordance with consistent principles as at 30 June 2021 by all group companies in which the Company directly or indirectly held more than 50% of voting rights or which it controls in another way. The entity included in the scope of consolidation together with the Company is Ina Invest Ltd.

Implenia Ltd holds the remaining voting rights and shares in Ina Invest Ltd (42.5%; 31 December 2020: 42.5%).
Subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date on which control is assumed and excluded from the date on which control is relinquished. These dates do not necessarily coincide with the acquisition or disposal date. Capital consolidation is performed according to the purchase method. This involves the group companies’ equity being offset against the carrying amount of the parent company’s investment at the time when it is purchased or, if appropriate, at the date of incorporation. Assets and liabilities of the group company are measured at fair value as at this date in accordance with principles that are consistent throughout the Group. Using the full consolidation method, the assets and liabilities of the consolidated companies were recognised in full in the consolidated interim financial statements. Intragroup assets and liabilities are eliminated, as are intragroup income and expenses.
The current reporting period was not influenced by seasonality. The income for the period consists mainly of the result from the revaluation of the investment properties, income from the rental of investment properties and income from the sale of promotional properties, which are not subject to any significant seasonal fluctuations.
The following section presents additional information on the operating result and the current and noncurrent assets relevant to the Group’s operating activities. The notes on assets primarily concern the promotional and investment properties.
Promotional properties include projects involving condominium apartments intended for sale at a later date.

The plots of land on which the projects are being built are completely owned by Ina Invest at the beginning of a project. Ina Invest develops the plots of land until it receives a building permit for them and then makes them ready to be built on. Construction begins as soon as most of the condominium apartments have been reserved. A general contractor executes the constructions. The two projects, Ernst-Jung-Gasse 18 (Lokstadt Tender) in Winterthur and Auf der Höhe 12-18 (Am Schwinbach) in Arlesheim, have Implenia Group acting as general contractor. In terms of risks and rewards, a distinction is made between sold and unsold projects under construction as well as completed projects in sale:
The following table shows the change in the number of the projects’ condominium apartments included in the promotional properties.

The contractual agreements with Implenia Group as a partner for the development of investment properties include a performance-based development fee for the services rendered. This contractual arrangement applies to all investment properties in the portfolio as at the balance sheet date. The performance-based development fee corresponds to 20% of the project result between the market values and the investment acquisition costs before settlement of the performance-based development fee. For Ina Invest, this contractual mechanism can lead to an increase or also a reduction of the development costs recognised on the basis of other contractual elements. Generally, the performance-based development fee is settled after completion of the development project. Thereafter, the development partner Implenia Group has no further share of a potential increase or reduction in the value of the investment property. The performance-based development fee recognised as at the balance sheet date resulted in non-current receivables from and non-current liabilities to the developer. Without the contractually agreed performance-based development fee, the profit from revaluation would amount to CHF 8,379 thousand and the loss from revaluation to CHF 3,655 thousand. The net profit from revaluation would be CHF 961 thousand higher than presented in the income statement as at the balance sheet date.
In June 2021, Ina Invest made down payments in connection with the acquisition of a new property in the amount of CHF 3,982 thousand. The total purchase price of the property is approximately CHF 60,000 thousand. The purchase transaction is expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2021.
Property valuations are carried out by Wüest Partner Ltd, Zurich, an external, independent and qualified valuation expert. The properties are valued in accordance with the discounted cash flow method (DCF method), whereby the fair value of a property is determined by the sum of the entire estimated future net income discounted to the present value. The net income (EBITDA) for each property is discounted individually taking into account property-specific risks and rewards, as well as market conditions and risks. For properties under development or under construction, the value of the project is determined in three steps:

Beyond that, uncertainties regarding future investments remain.
In financial year 2020, collateral for a mortgage note used to finance a project was issued, thus encumbering the investment properties located at Schaffhauserstrasse 220-224 in Zurich and at Zürcherstrasse 31 (Lokstadt Elefant) in Winterthur. The recognised fair value of these two properties amounted to CHF 98,250 thousand as at 30 June 2021 (31 December 2020: CHF 84,440 thousand). See note 3.1 for more information.
As at 30 June 2021, intangible assets include the purchase rights for plots of land located at Rue du Château in Préverenges (plot size: 2,763 m2). The execution of the purchase right shall take place when the neighbourhood plan becomes legally effective, but no later than 28 February 2025.
The purchase rights reported as intangible assets in the amount of CHF 21,333 thousand (31 December 2020: CHF 21,176 thousand) correspond to the acquisition costs for the purchase rights or the purchase obligations. The nominal value of the unrecognized obligations from the purchase commitments amounts to CHF 5,007 thousand (31 December 2020: CHF 5,007 thousand).
Ina Invest is currently active exclusively on the Swiss market. The property portfolio, comprising promotional and investment properties, is managed as a single entity by the Board of Directors and Executive Management. In accordance with Swiss GAAP FER 31, the Group therefore has a single segment. Therefore, no segment reporting is presented.
During the reporting period, Ina Invest generated rental income from investment properties amounting to CHF 1,397 thousand (30 June 2020: zero). This rental income is mainly attributable to the three investment properties located at Chemin des Oliquettes 10 in Petit-Lancy, Rue du Valais 7 in Geneva and Schaffhauserstrasse 220-224 in Zurich.
This maturity schedule shows the terms of commercial rental agreements (e.g. for hotels, commercial and industrial uses). Rental income from residential properties is not included as these agreements may be terminated on a short-term notice.
