COMPANY PROFILE:
The Ayala Group's property arm engaged in strategic landbank management, residential development, shopping centers, corporate and geographic businesses. It
sources bulk of its revenue from real estate sales, rentals and construction contracts (86.34% - 3 yr average) and hotel operations (4.35% average.) Ayala Corporation,
its parent, holds 53.21% of the firm's issued and outstanding capital stock. The Company continues to pursue major high-end land development projects, residential
and office condominium development, liesure community projects and shopping center operations.

OVERVIEW:
The Company continued to post strong top line growth with real
estate sales increasing 24% for the first 9-months year-on-year. This
despite lower contributions from its shopping mall segment due to the
closure of Glorietta 1. Bottom-line grew 35% to php3.935B, pulled by a
36% rise in Q3 profits. This stretches the quarter-on-quarter growth
trend to seven, with an average quarterly growth of 8 percent.
Effective cost controls boosted pre-tax margins. Growth was
sustained by strong residential sales with an average sales take up of
php3B per month, increased occupancy rates in its office leasing
operations (BPO) and mall GLA occupancy rate of 93 percent.

Moving forward, the Company is looking at its expansion to areas such


as Baguio, Subic, Iloilo, Palawan and Davao. It has launched 48
projects in 16 growth centers. It has several shopping centers, BPO
leasable spaces as well as resorts and hotels lined up to begin
operations in the next two years.

The Company has also incorporated the Ayala Land Commerical REIT,
