Property disposal

 

Panther Securities PLC announces that it has completed on the sale of its
freehold interest in Charles House, Premier House and 78 Darlington Street,
Wolverhampton, for £2,500,000 in cash to a local developer.

The property was purchased in August 2010 for £1,560,000 including purchase
costs. It comprises a mixed-use scheme of approximately 70,000 sq ft. on 1.2
acres of city centre land. On purchase it produced rents of £278,000 per
annum (and £195,000 after costs) and was at purchase already clearly a
potential development due to its size and location. The Group managed to
maintain a high level of income for almost its entire ownership. The property
most recently produced rent of £122,000 per annum (and circa £80,000 after
costs).

The purchase price represents an increase of £330,000 on the current book
value for the property of £2,170,000.

The funds received by the Company will be held for future property investment
which has yet to be identified.
