Novavest completes capital increase
Novavet Real Estate AG has completed another capital increase. The funds raised in the amount of 27 million francs are to be used to expand the real estate portfolio. It was only in December that 28.55 million francs had been raised.
Novavest has completed a further capital increase from existing authorized capital, the real estate company informs in a message . Specifically, 642,619 new registered shares were subscribed at the subscription price of 42.05 francs each during the subscription rights trading between June 14 and 23. Novavest intends to use the approximately 27.0 million francs it has brought in to expand its portfolio of residential properties.
During the capital increase, existing shareholders of Novavest Real Estate AG were granted the right to purchase one new share for every eleven registered shares already held. The offer was also met with "great interest from both institutional and private investors," writes the company. As a result, Novavest was able to expand its shareholder base.
After the capital increase, Novavest's share capital will amount to 207.4 million francs, the announcement further explains. Just last December, Novavest raised around CHF 28.6 million in a capital increase. These funds were also used to expand the company's own real estate portfolio. At the end of May, the company then lowered the nominal value of its shares by 1.65 francs to 26.90 francs.
