Director's purchase of ordinary shares

Custodian REIT (LSE: CREI), the UK property investment company focused on small lot-sizes, announces the purchase of 800,000 ordinary shares in the Company by Ian Mattioli, a Non-Executive Director.

David Hunter, Chairman of the Custodian REIT, commented: "This purchase demonstrates Ian's continued support of the Company and his alignment with the long-term interests of our shareholders, and also underlines the Board's view that the Company's current share price does not sufficiently reflect the true value of its net assets."

Following this purchase, Ian Mattioli and family[1] own 5,642,451 ordinary shares in the Company (representing a 1.28% holding).

The Directors of the Company are satisfied they are not in possession of any inside information which has not already been notified via a Regulatory Information Service.
