Regulatory News:
Mercialys (Paris:MERY) has completed the acquisition of the remaining 49% stake it did not already own in Hyperthétis Participations, a company holding a portfolio of 66,000 sqm of gross leasable area (GLA).
These assets, located across five sites in Angers, Brest, Niort, Narbonne and Le Puy, are fully let or in the process of being relet. They host leading food retail brands such as Auchan, Leclerc, Grand Frais, Lidl, and Carrefour, alongside prominent non-food retailers.
This transaction, representing a total investment of €28 million, enables Mercialys to achieve full real estate control over these sites. It also delivers an immediately accretive return, well above the Company's usual investment criteria.
Previously, Hyperthétis Participations was fully consolidated in Mercialys' financial statements. The main accounting impact of this acquisition will be the elimination of minority interests from the income statement.
As part of this transaction, Mercialys was advised by Forvis Mazars on accounting matters and by Archers on legal aspects.
