Immobel heeft zijn verkoop van eigen aandelen die eerder vandaag werd aangekondigd succesvol afgerond. In totaal werden 262.179 eigen aandelen, wat overeenstemt met circa 2,6% van het huidig uitstaand aandelenkapitaal van Immobel, geplaatst tegen een prijs van €66 per Aandeel. De prijs vertegenwoordigt een korting van 2,9% ten opzichte van de laatst verhandelbare prijs van de Aandelen op 4 januari 2021. De bruto-opbrengst voor de Vennootschap van de verkoop van de Aandelen bedraagt circa €17,3 miljoen en zal worden gebruikt om bijkomende projecten te financieren die reeds geïdentificeerd zijn in België, Duitsland, Frankrijk en Luxemburg.
De Aandelen, die via een versneld bookbuildingproces zijn geplaatst, zullen volledig recht geven op het dividend toegekend over het boekjaar 2020, dat wordt goedgekeurd op de Gewone Algemene Vergadering op 15 april 2021, en zullen over dezelfde rechten beschikken als de andere Immobel aandelen. In navolging
van de verkoop van 262.179 eigen aandelen, zal het totaal aantal aandelen met recht op het dividend oplopen tot 9.967.008 aandelen.
De Vennootschap heeft ingestemd met een lock-up van 90 dagen na de transactie, met de gebruikelijke uitzonderingen.
Na de succesvolle private plaatsing zal de free float stijgen naar ongeveer 40,8 % en zal Immobel 30.348 resterende eigen aandelen houden, wat overeenkomt met circa 0,3% van het huidige uitstaande aandelenkapitaal van Immobel. De resterende eigen aandelen zijn bestemd voor gebruik in het kader van management performance share plans.
De private plaatsing werd uitgevoerd in overeenstemming met artikel 8.7,2° van het koninklijk besluit tot uitvoering van het Wetboek van Vennootschappen en Verenigingen.
Verwacht wordt dat de betaling en levering van de geplaatste eigen aandelen zal plaatsvinden op 7 januari 2021.
Berenberg en KBC Securities treden op als Joint Bookrunners in deze private plaatsing.
Door de private plaatsing is de verhandeling van de Immobel-aandelen op Euronext Brussels sinds vanochtend opgeschort. De verhandeling zal hervat worden kort na de publicatie van dit persbericht.

Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, Distributors should note that: the price of shares may decline, and investors could lose all or part of their investment; the shares offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and an investment in the shares is compatible only with investors who do not need a guaranteed income or capital protection, who (either alone or in conjunction with an appropriate financial or other adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an investment and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any losses that may result therefrom. The Target Market Assessment is without prejudice to the requirements of any contractual, legal or regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the private placement.

Each distributor is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the shares and determining appropriate distribution channels.
The Joint Bookrunners are acting exclusively for the Company and no one else in connection with the placement. In connection with such matters, they, their affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents will not regard any other person as their client, nor will they be responsible to any other person for providing the protections afforded to their clients or for providing advice in relation to the private placement or any other matters referred to in this announcement.
