INVL Baltic Real Estate Completes Significant Transaction
INVL Baltic Real Estate has executed a notable real estate transaction to enhance its property portfolio. The Company recently finalized a purchase and sale agreement with Bohnenkamp, SIA, concerning a substantial real estate holding in Latvia. This agreement involves a 2.9-hectare plot of land and a sizable warehouse that has a total space of 12,800 square meters.
Details of the Real Estate Agreement
The agreement, confirmed to the public in early October, signifies a noteworthy milestone for INVL Baltic Real Estate, reflecting the Company's strategic efforts in the real estate market. The warehouse and land, previously owned by INVL’s subsidiaries Dommo Gruppa and Dommo Biznesa Parks respectively, were sold for EUR 7.45 million. Such a strategic transaction highlights INVL's commitment to optimizing its assets and generating favorable operating results.
Financial Implications of the Sale

The remaining funds are earmarked for advancing ongoing projects, particularly the redevelopment of a property on Vilniaus Street, a key location for INVL Baltic Real Estate.
Ongoing Operations and Future Growth
Despite the significant sale, INVL Baltic Real Estate will continue to manage approximately 52 hectares of land in Latvia through its subsidiary, Dommo Gruppa. This land is earmarked for future development and potential sales, demonstrating the Company’s sustained commitment to growth.
