Aedifica is pleased to announce the contribution in kind of a plot of land in Tienen (by Oase VZW) on 30 June 2014. This transaction is a part of the agreement in principle (announced on 12 June 20141) for the acquisition of a portfolio of five rest homes in the province of Flemish Brabant.
The contractual value2 of the plot of land amounts to approx. €4 million. The initial net yield amounts to approx. 6 %. Aedifica will receive this yield based on the surface rights granted to Woon & Zorg Vg Tienen BVBA in the framework of the construction of the buildings on this plot of land.
The transaction was entirely financed by the issue of 86,952 new Aedifica shares. The new shares are fully paid-up, with no par value. These shares will be quoted on the stock market as from 2 July 2014 and will give dividend rights for the current financial year, provided that Oase will assume the expected dividend for the period from 1 July 2013 to 29 June 2014. The contribution in kind will have a favourable impact on Aedifica's consolidated debt-to-asset ratio (44.7 % as of 31 March 2014) of approx. 0.2 %.
In addition to the contribution of kind of the plot of land in Tienen, Aedifica completed the simplified merger of Rugever BVBA (acquired 12 June 20144) on 30 June 2014.
