CLS Holdings plc ("CLS", the "Company", the "Group") CLS Holdings plc announces acquisition of £10.2 million office building in Sutton, South London

CLS Holdings plc announces that it has exchanged contracts to acquire Chancery House, St Nicholas Way, Sutton, SM1 for £10.2 million, representing a net initial yield of 7.0%.

The property comprises a 5,132 sq m (55,242 sq ft), self-contained, eight storey office building offering modern, flexible accommodation, the majority of which has been recently refurbished, and secure basement car parking. It is multi-let to 14 tenants with an average lease length of 5.5 years and has a vacancy level of 16%. CLS has identified asset management opportunities to improve the attractiveness of the building for its occupiers, and to attract further tenants to reduce the vacancy level.

Owing to its strategic location, outstanding transport links and diverse retail provision, Sutton is now an established office location within Greater London and is enjoying a regeneration of its town centre through substantial redevelopment.

Sten Mortstedt, Executive Chairman of CLS, commented:

For further information, please contact:

"Chancery House is an attractive addition that will fit well into our London portfolio. We believe this property is well positioned to benefit from the expected increase in office demand in Sutton, driven by our asset management initiatives and an undersupply of good quality offices in the area."
