EIFFAGE has finalised the disposal of 100% of two companies dedicated to the public-private partnerships of the Annemasse (Hanvol) and Rennes (H'ennez) hospitals to Meridiam Infrastructure for a global valuation* of euros 272 million.
Created by EIFFAGE, these two companies hold partnership contracts (in the form of long term hospital leases) for the design, construction, financing and the operation of the aforementioned buildings which were put into service respectively in 2010 and 2011.
The EIFFAGE Group will keep on providing the operation and facility management of these PPPs until the end of the contracts, thereby demonstrating its long standing commitment as a partner of the public authorities.
This transaction initiates a relationship between EIFFAGE and Meridiam in the PPP sector.
These disposals are part of the active PPP portfolio management strategy of EIFFAGE. They follow the disposals of OPTIMEP 4 to DG Infra in December 2011 and of the Group share of ADTIM to OFI Infravia in December 2012.
EIFFAGE will also sell to Meridiam, during 2014, and subject to the clearance of the public authorities, the company Centor 36 who holds a PPP contract for the gendarmerie barracks in Châteauroux. Centor 36 is valued at euros 35 million. Once the Centor 36 transaction realised, EIFFAGE would have closed for more than euros 600 million of disposals since the end of 2011.
*: including the market to market value of the swaps for euros 61 million at 31 December 2012
