PSP Swiss Property: The measures introduced to lower the vacancy rate are showing results.
PSP Swiss Property achieves very positive results in the first half of 2007. Compared to the first half 2006, net income rose by 20.6% to CHF 142.2 million, mainly due to a significant portfolio revaluation. Thanks to higher rental income as well as lower tax charges, net income excluding revaluation gains moved up by 16.3% to CHF 58.8 million.
