LETTER TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS
Dr. Markus Wesnitzer
Chairman of the Board
Dear Shareholders, Ladies and Gentlemen
Financial year 2024/25 was a successful one for Züblin. Net rental income rose significantly as a result of new lettings, while lower interest rates had a positive impact on the revaluation of our properties and on financial expenses. Active property management will remain an important determinant of the company's success in the new financial year.
Increased operating incomeTarget rents increased by 1.6% year-on-year to CHF 10.2 million (previous year: CHF 10.0 million). This was primarily attributable to the indexation of a high proportion of our rental contracts and the resulting adjustments to rents due to inflation. Successful new lettings and re-lettings, in particular the new letting of the first floor of the property in Berne from July 2024, reduced the vacancy rate by 24.7% to CHF 0.7 million (previous year CHF 0.9 million). The vacancy rate stood at 4.8% at the reporting date (previous year: 9.3%), a reduction of 48% or 4.5 percentage points. Rental income rose by 4.3% to CHF 9.4 million (previous year CHF 9.0 million).
The impairment of an outstanding rent receivable and associated legal costs led to an increase in property expenses. Excluding this one-off effect, property expenses would have declined by 13.6% year-on-year. Lower energy costs and higher expenses passed on to tenants led to lower heating and ancillary costs. Ongoing maintenance costs were at the previous year's level. Despite the aforementioned one-off effect from the writedown of outstanding rent receivables, the operating result increased by 2.1% to CHF 8.8 million (previous year CHF 8.6 million).
Administrative expenses increased by CHF 0.1 million due to higher investor relations costs (which are normally listing-related) as a result of the mandatory amendment of the Articles of Association and the associated legal advisory expenses. The slight increase in personnel expenses compared to the previous year was due to the
