ORCO PROPERTY GROUP ENVISAGE UNE AUGMENTATION DE CAPITAL ET UNE COTATION SUR LES MARCHES DE VARSOVIE ET BUDAPEST
Orco Property Group S.A., un des acteurs leaders de l’investissement immobilier et de la promotion résidentielle en Europe centrale, annonce aujourd’hui étudier la réalisation d’une augmentation de capital et la cotation de son action sur les bourses de Varsovie et Budapest en plus de celles de Paris et Prague.
ORCO envisage une augmentation de capital de l’ordre de 100 MEUR, le montant exact dépendra toutefois des conditions de marché. Le groupe souhaite utiliser les fonds levés à cette occasion pour financer la croissance de son portefeuille immobilier en Europe Centrale et de l’Est.
La cotation à Varsovie et Budapest a pour objectif d’attirer les investisseurs institutionnels de ces deux pays. La transaction incluera probablement une offre aux investisseurs internationaux.
L’opération devrait avoir lieu au cours du deuxième trimestre 2007, en fonction des conditions de marché et de l’approbation des autorités réglementaires.
Citigroup Global Markets Limited (“Citigroup”) et Wood & Co ont été retenus par ORCO en tant que conseils sur cette opération.
Si l’opération a lieu,ORCO sera la seule valeur étrangère cotée à Budapest. En tenant compte de la capitalisation boursière estimée du groupe post opération,ORCO devrait satisfaire les critères d’admission des indices BUX en Hongrie et WIG en Pologne.
ORCO restera cotée à Paris et Prague. Si l’opération a lieu, ORCO sera la seule valeur à être cotée sur les trois principales bourses d’Europe Centrale (Prague, Budapest et Varsovie), trois pays dans lesquels le portefeuille d’ORCO est massivement investi.
