Oakley sells Casa.it to EQT

 
 --   Proceeds: OCI's share of proceeds will be approximately 
       GBP34 million - a 50% premium to the 30 June 2020 carrying 
       value 
 --   NAV increase: The sale results in an uplift of 7 pence 
       per share - a 2% increase in the total NAV per share at 
       30 June 2020 
 --   Returns: The exit of Casa takes the current gross return 
       on this investment to 2.0x MM, c.23% IRR 
 

Oakley Capital Investments Limited (the "Company" or "OCI") is pleased to announce that Oakley Capital Private Equity III (2) ("Fund III") has reached an agreement to sell its stake in Casa.it ("Casa") to the EQT IX fund ("EQT"). Casa is one of the leading players in the online real estate classifieds market in Italy and is part of Fund III's investment in the online classifieds group, Casa & atHome.

The full exit of Casa, together with the partial sale of atHome earlier this year and the retained minority stake, takes the gross return on investment to date to 2.0x MM and c.23% IRR for Fund III. In addition, further upside is expected from the minority stake retained in atHome. OCI's share of proceeds from this transaction, which is at a 50% premium to the 30 June 2020 carrying value, will be approximately GBP34 million (EUR:GBP 1.12 at the day of signing). This represents an uplift of 7 pence per share to the Company's NAV at 30 June 2020.

Oakley originally invested in the business in 2017, as part of the acquisition of a portfolio of classifieds businesses from REA Group, which comprised Casa.it in Italy and atHome.lu in Luxembourg. Under Oakley's ownership, Casa has significantly expanded its customer base, now servicing over 14,000 real estate agents with over one million property listings on its website.

Peter Dubens, Managing Partner of Oakley Capital, commented:

"We would like to thank Luca Rossetto and his team for their hard work in successfully developing Casa over the past three years, delivering operational improvements and significant customer growth. Casa has many of the traits that Oakley targets in an investment, as a digital platform with a strong position in a structural growth market, and our partnership has continued Oakley's successful track record in the digital consumer space."
