Invalda INVL Group Adjusts Shares to Comply with Regulations

Invalda INVL Group's Recent Share Sale Explained
Invalda INVL, the prominent asset management group in the Baltic region, has taken significant steps to maintain compliance with regulatory requirements. Recently, the group sold 2 million shares of Artea Bank, which equates to 0.3% of the bank's authorized capital, at a price of EUR 0.88 per share. This move was essential for Invalda INVL to remain within the 20% shareholding limit imposed by the European Central Bank.
Explanation Behind the Share Adjustment
According to Darius Šulnis, the CEO of Invalda INVL, Artea Bank decided to annul its previously held own shares and reduce its authorized capital. This decision prompted Invalda INVL Group to sell a portion of its shares to adhere to the bank's new regulations. The transaction was conducted over-the-counter (OTC), which means it did not have any impact on the market price of the bank's shares.
Impact of the Shareholding Structure
On March 31, 2025, a decision was made during Artea Bank’s shareholders' meeting to annul 10,597,749 shares, consequently lowering the bank's authorized capital to EUR 189,195,680. If Invalda INVL had not sold these shares, their ownership stake would have inflated to 20.25% after the capital reduction, surpassing the set regulatory threshold.
Current Shareholding in Artea Bank
As it stands, Invalda INVL Group maintains a 19.93% shareholding in Artea Bank. This strategic sale not only aligns with compliance protocols but also illustrates the group's commitment to sound governance practices.
