Operations Review
Strategic Plan
The Corporation's principal objectives are to make investments capable of
generating appreciation in value as opposed to current income and to maximize
shareholder returns by investing its own capital alongside partners and
co-investors in hard assets and private equity funds. These assets are managed
through the Corporation's operating platforms where Wilmington can add scale and
improve valuations.
During 2012, Wilmington continued to take steps to solidify the foundation of
its three operating platforms - self-storage facilities, private equity funds
and natural gas assets. Core management teams, operational, accounting and
reporting systems as well as a pipeline of new opportunities are in place. As at
December 31, 2012, Wilmington had assets under management in its operating
platforms of approximately $135 million ($64 million representing Wilmington's
share).
Investment in Real Storage Private Trust (the "Trust")
The Trust (44.78% owned) owns 17 self-storage facilities comprising 645,978
square feet of rentable area and one development property. The Trust showed
significant improvements in 2012 as the five properties in western Canada, which
were for the most part in the initial lease up stage, approached stabilized
occupancy levels. Across the portfolio of 17 properties, occupancy levels
averaged 78%, compared to 73% in 2011. Operating margins improved to 52% up from
47% achieved in 2011.
Investment in Network Capital Management Inc. ("NCI") and Network 2012 Fund
NCI (50% owned) successfully closed its $22.3 million fund in early 2012
bringing total assets under management to $49 million. The majority of the
capital in the 2012 fund was deployed during the year in a strong mix of junior
oil and gas and service companies. Wilmington invested $8 million in the 2012
fund.
Investment in Shackleton 2011 Limited Partnership (the "Shackleton Partnership"
or the "Partnership")
The natural gas assets owned through the Shackleton Partnership (59% owned) have
proven to be of high quality and present good opportunities for growth and
future development once we reach a more favorable natural gas pricing
environment. The weighted average price realized during 2012 was $2.33 per mcf
and operating netbacks averaged $0.98 per mcf. Natural gas production volumes
for the 100% interest in the Shackleton field amounted to 5,283 mcf per day (881
boepd) for the year. Estimated proved plus probable reserves attributable to the
Shackleton assets as evaluated by GLJ Petroleum Consultants Ltd. with an
effective date of December 31, 2012 were 19,702 MMcf. The outlook for natural
gas pricing has improved significantly and a better pricing environment will be
beneficial to the operating performance of the Shackleton assets. Of its 2013
production, approximately 50% has been hedged under fixed price contracts with
an average price of $3.18 per mcf.
Discontinued Operations
During the fourth quarter, the Corporation took further steps to rationalize its
core business and entered into an agreement to sell its interest in commercial
land in San Francisco, California. The sale is scheduled to close during the
second quarter of 2013.
2013 Outlook
The Corporation is pleased with the progress made in solidifying and building
upon its three operating platforms - the Trust, NCI and the Shackleton
Partnership. In 2013 and in the years ahead, the Corporation expects to add
scale to these operating platforms, improve valuations and earn attractive cash
flow and total returns for shareholders.
