Sale of Group Property investment in Romania
First Property Group plc (AIM: FPO), the property fund manager and investor, is pleased to announce that it has agreed to sell one of its three directly held properties in Romania, a logistics warehouse in Ploiesti, for a total consideration of some EUR3.2 million. The sale will result in a profit before tax of just over EUR1 million, all of which will be recognised in the current financial year ended 31 March.
The purchaser, Aquila Part Prod SRL ("Aquila"), is also the current occupier of the property. The lease to Aquila expires in July 2017.
Payment of the consideration is scheduled to be made in quarterly instalments between July 2017 and April 2023. The Group will retain legal title to the property until full payment has been received. Payments received would be non-refundable in the event of a subsequent default by the purchaser.
Commenting on the sale, Ben Habib, Group Chief Executive, said:
"This is an opportunistic sale to a tenant at the end of its lease and is beneficial for both parties. I am pleased that the Group has realised a profit on cost of just over EUR1 million, representing a return on investment of some 50%."
Catalin Ana, General Manager, First Property Asset Management Romania SRL, said:
"The economic outlook for Romania is strong, with further GDP growth forecast in 2017 and momentum building within the commercial property market. As such First Property Group remains committed to growing our presence there, and I look forward to updating the market on our Romanian assets in due course."
