GSD Holding History The foundations of GSD Group were laid down by the establishment of GSD Foreign Trade in 1986 as the first independent trading house in Turkey. The company soon evolved into Turkey s one of the leading exporters. Encouraged by its achievements in foreign trade, GSD Group decided to invest in other areas of potential growth and the finance sector was identified as a key target. Eventually the Group became a predominantly financial services group, through its banks, its leasing, factoring and brokerage companies. A major change occurred in our portfolio in August 2011, when changing business circumstances led us reassess our investment portfolio. Diminishing returns drove us stop our leasing business and enter into dry bulk ship management business by converting our leasing subsidiary into a shipping company we called GSD Marin. Increasing competition from banks and government s abolishment of exceptional Value Added Tax (VAT) rates for leasing companies had made leasing transactions unprofitable for some time. In search of new value investments, the real estate sector seemed attractive at first, however a deeper analysis revealed that the real estate prices in Turkey were still expensive to produce a profitable business. We believe that the prevailing diminished economic activity resulting from the global economic crisis made shipping business quite attractive at this stage, given the significantly reduced vessel prices and historicaly low freight charges that are expected to pick up as the global growth resumes.
GSD Holding History In addition to GSD Marin, GSD Foregin Trade resolved to terminate the by-pass export activities after reevaluating the efficiency in this area of activity due to the loss of feasibility of by-pass export activities arising from the decrease in rights and benefits provided for foreign trade intermediary companies within the scope of current legislation and enter into dry bulk ship management business in December 2012. GSD Marin has currently two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Cano Maritime Ltd. and Dodo Maritime Ltd., established in Malta on 26 March 2013, each owning and operating a newly-built dry bulk carrier vessel with a 39,000 dwt transportation capacity per ship under time charter agreements starting from 7 May 2013. GSD Foreign Trade has currently two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Hako Maritime Ltd. and Zeyno Maritime Ltd., established in Malta on 1 April 2013 and 22 April 2013, respectively, each expected to own and operate a newly-built dry bulk carrier vessel with a 63,500 dwt transportation capacity per ship under time charter agreements starting from May 2014 and September 2014, respectively. GSD Group is currently active in most financial services: Banking with Tekstilbank and GSD Bank, domestic and international factoring with Tekstil Factoring, investment banking and capital market brokerage services with Tekstil Invest and dry bulk shipping management with GSD Marin and GSD Foreign Trade.
GSD Holding Vision GSD Holding is the controlling shareholder in all these companies and is responsible for establishing major operational guidelines and setting the standards for enterprise risk management and corporate governance. The GSD Group's growth strategy is based on providing financial and other support services to commercial activity, rather than competing in industrial production. It has adopted a prudent management approach, giving priority to growth by equity rather than through borrowing. On solo basis, GSD Holding s leverage is minimal since all investments were funded by equity. Therefore, sustainable profitability is the main pillar of the Group's investment strategy. GSD Holding attaches priority to specialization over total diversification, thus allowing resources to be channeled into the businesses where strategic strength and expertise can be offered. Since inception, GSD Holding had been fully observing the principles of corporate governance, transparency and good conduct of business. These aims were even better served by the GSD Holding s quoting its shares on the the Borsa Istanbul (BIST) (formerly Istanbul Stock Exchange (ISE)) in 1999. Tekstilbank s and GSD Marin s shares are also traded on the BIST. Aware of its social responsibilities, the GSD Group is also active in philanthropic activities through the GSD Educational Foundation. It has built 3 primary schools across the country and donated them to the ministery of education. The foundation keeps supporting these schools.

Shipping GSD Marin Our most recent investment has been dry bulk ship management. We think the current lowered economic activity resulting from the global economic crisis took a heavy toll on shipping businesses as evident in significantly reduced vessel prices and historicaly low freight charges. We believe the circumstances present a unique investment opportunity in entering ship management business with a long term perspective. After all, the current downward trend should reverse as the global economic activity later picks up. We positioned ourselves in the dry bulk handy size ship management since it is more resilient to fluctuations stemming from business cycles.
