Ad-Hoc Information: EEII 2015 annual results

Zug, March 23, 2016

EEII AG publishes annual results per 12-31-2015

EEII reports a net loss of CHF 3.25 mln (2014: net loss of CHF 2.3 mln) for the year 2015. During the reporting period, EEII's net asset value (NAV) decreased by 38 % from CHF 5.61 to CHF 3.48 per share. The key drivers for the loss were the negative share price performances of the primary investments in a deteriorating commodity and political market environment as well as currency losses on EEII' primary investments.

With the slumping energy commodity prices and the negative developments of the financial markets in the core investment regions of EEII in Eastern Europe, the year 2015 also provided a very challenging environment for EEII. During the reporting period, EEII's net asset value (NAV) decreased by 38 % from CHF 5.61 to CHF 3.48 per share. In absolute terms, the Company reports a net loss of CHF 3.25 mln (2014: net loss of CHF 2.3 mln).

The key drivers for the loss were the negative share price performances of the primary investments in a deteriorating market environment, in particular the broad decrease in global commodity prices and the negative developments of the political situation and the financial markets in the core investment regions of EEII in Eastern Europe. The main share price contributors to the 2015 loss were the negative performance of the two main company holdings, Gazprom and Ukrnafta. Gazprom's and Ukrnafta's share prices lost almost 21% and 43% respectively, of their values in the company's reporting currency of CHF (CHF -2.34 mln). At the same time, the exchange rates of the relevant countries' currencies vs. the CHF also weakened drastically during the year. The Ukrainian Hryvna lost more than 34% and the Russian Rouble lost more than 29% against the CHF during 2015. These currency losses alone were responsible for virtually all of the reporting losses in these two holdings for the year.

With the ongoing pressure on oil and other commodity prices, the continuing Western economic sanctions against Russia, and challenging economic situation in Ukraine and in Russia, the investment environment for EEII will likely also remain challenging in 2016.
