Main focus areas going forward

  • RomReal, is focusing on land value enhancing activities in order to improve the shareholder value and exit.
  • The pandemic is slowing down the Company's on-going permitting as well as its sales & marketing process, and combined with the ongoing tax dispute case, it creates short-term uncertainty, reducing our financial flexibility.
  • The Company's Management is focused in maintaining a solid cash position until an improvement of the business conditions appears. Only then a return on capital may be considered.

Thank you
