Interim Report January - March 2009



Net turnover amounted to SEK 14.8 m (15.2) for the period January -
March

Value changes, SEK -371.6 m, realized losses, SEK -15.2 m, and
impairment losses, SEK -32.0 m in the property portfolio lead to a
result after tax that amounted to SEK -417.8 m (46.9) for the period
January - March.

Earnings per share amounted to SEK -36.77 (6.91) for the period
January-March

The economic environment in Russia is still difficult, even though
there are some recent signs of relief such as rising oil price,
healthier financial markets and a stronger Rouble. Despite such
positive signs, the activity on the real estate transactions market
in St Petersburg is low.

Book value of the properties amounts to SEK 1,260.8 m (1,662.8). The
non-liquid market complicates the assessment of a fair market value.

Ruric continues its efforts to find a long term financing solution
for the company, as well as extending the investment agreement on
Moika/Glinki.

After the end of the period, Ruric and Storm Real Estate signed and
closed the sale of Grifon House. The transaction is partly paid
according to agreed payment schedule.
