through bond issues provided the Group with more financial flexibility
and further enhanced its ability in managing interest rate volatility and
re-financing risks in the future. The average maturity period of the debt
portfolio has been lengthened to 4.1 years from 3.5 years during the year.
The current market conditions provide a rare opportunity for the Group to
tap the bond market to mitigate various financial risks and to convert the
surplus cash to RMB deposits. As a result, it could earn higher interest
income and at the same time benefit from a natural currency hedge for
the Group’s capital commitments on various Mainland projects.
Consequently, both the cash and borrowings of the Group increased
during the year. After netting off total borrowings, all unsecured, of
HK$37,645 million, the Group had net cash of HK$2,538 million as
at December 31, 2012. As at December 31, 2011, the Group had net
borrowings of HK$1,545 million.
The Group will continue to adopt a prudent and sound financial
management strategy to support its long-term growth. With a strong
balance sheet and an outstanding ability to generate quality recurring
cash flow, the Group is well positioned to buy more land and seize new
investment opportunities when arise.
