The increase in the Company’s earnings compared to the same period in 2019 is due principally to the additional capital invested in 2019 in commercial properties, loans receivable and forest properties.
With respect to the impact of COVID-19, our businesses overall performed well in the first quarter, however our commercial properties are being impacted and we are working to mitigate the consequences.
The book value of each common share increased to 58¢ at March 31, 2020 compared to 51¢ in 2019. Halmont revalues its principal assets each year in accordance with IFRS accounting principles, considering available market information and the relevant terms of its joint-venture and partnership agreements. As a result, the common share book value approximates their realizable values.
Halmont Properties Corporation invests directly in real estate and securities of companies holding property, energy, and infrastructure.
