Eurocastle Announces Signing of its First
Investment Under New Strategy
Guernsey, 21 November 2023 – Eurocastle
Investment Limited (Euronext Amsterdam: ECT) (“Eurocastle” or the
“Company”) today announces that it has agreed to acquire the first
investment under its new strategy, part of a boutique retail
complex in an affluent part of Athens, Greece. The asset is being
purchased from one of the largest Greek banks out of a distressed
situation where the main leaseholder is in default. Eurocastle’s
strategy is to lease-up the last 20% of the building currently
vacant and then seek an exit in the open market.
Eurocastle is acquiring the asset alongside a
local partner (the “JV Partner”) who is anticipated to take a 20%
interest in the asset. The total expected investment is
approximately €6.3 million, of which Eurocastle’s share is
approximately €5.0m with a closing targeted before the end of 2023,
subject to certain conditions precedent.
As previously announced, Eurocastle intends to
leverage the relationship of the Company’s investment manager with
a local JV Partner in Greece to source investment opportunities. In
parallel with executing this first investment, the Company has been
underwriting a number of additional opportunities.
In order to support its new investment program,
Eurocastle has been working on establishing an investment platform
through which it expects to invest the majority of its current net
corporate cash of over €18 million alongside selected external
co-investors. In addition to generating attractive risk adjusted
returns on its share of any investments made through the platform,
Eurocastle anticipates also receiving market standard management
and incentive fees from the external investors.
