RNS Number : 0678C Secure Property Dev & Inv PLC 06 October 2025
Secure Property Development & Invest PLC / Index: AIM / EPIC: SPDI /
Sector: Real Estate
Secure Property Development & Investment PLC ("SPDI" or "the Company")
Sale of Romanian Logistics Portfolio
Secure Property Development and Investment Limited (AIM: SPDI), the South
Eastern European focused property company, is pleased to announce that it has
sold its interest in the logistics platform it has in Romania (the "Logic"
portfolio) to Myrnes Limited, a Cyprus registered company owned by eleven
investors / legal entities, including four of SPDI's directors, Michael Beys,
Harin Thaker, Ian Domaille and Lambros Anagnostopoulos, who in aggregate own
37% of the company.
The consideration paid to SPDI for the Logic portfolio is €2,250,000, which
has been fully received and used to repay most of SPDI's current liabilities
(including the 2018 Bond).
The Logic portfolio consists of a 50% interest in a special purpose vehicle
("SPV") called SEC-NESS LOGICO PROPERTIES LIMITED ("SEC-NES"), which will be
the owner of two logistics terminals under development in Oradea and Costanta,
both let to RetuRO srl, as well as the income generating Innovations Terminal.
The remaining 50% of SEC-NES is owned by the 50/50 SPV joint venture partner,
Myrian Nes Ltd ("MNL") (as announced on 26 August 2022).
As was noted in the Company's H1 2025 interim results, and as part of this
transaction, the Company sold 50% of its interest in the Innovations Terminal
to MNL earlier in 2025, which in turn has contributed it into SEC-NES
(alongside SPDI's remaining 50% share). SPDI has already received part payment
of €750,000 from MNL for the disposal of this 50% stake in the Innovations
Terminal, with a further €750,000 to be deferred into 2026 as part of the
agreement.
Related Party Transaction
The sale of the Company's interest in the Logic portfolio is regarded as a
related party transaction for the purposes of AIM Rule 13 of the AIM Rules for
Companies due to the collective interest that four of the Company's directors
own in Myrnes Limited. Accordingly, the Independent Director, being Antonios
Kaffas, considers, having consulted with Strand Hanson Limited, the Company's
Nominated Adviser, that the terms of the sale are fair and reasonable in so
far as the Company's shareholders are concerned.
Schedule Four Disclosure
As at 30 June 2025, SPDI attributed a NAV to the assets making up the Logic
portfolio of, in aggregate, approximately €4 million. During H1 2025, the
assets making up the Logic portfolio generated a loss before tax of, in
aggregate, approximately €40k. All figures are currently unaudited.
Disposal of Ukrainian land asset
The Company also announces that, earlier this week, it sold SC SECURE Capital
Ltd., the company owning the Rozhny land asset outside Kiev for a
consideration of $255,000. Such payment is be received in two tranches, 70% of
it to be received next week and the remaining 30% in 2026.
SPDI Chairman of the Board, Michael Beys, commented, "The Logic sale, that
includes both a standing asset and two properties under development,
reflecting SPDI's 50% of such portfolio generates a substantial capital inflow
for SPDI to be able to address a number of existing liabilities and follows an
extended effort by the Company to monetise said properties. Despite the
construction risk associated with the two properties under development, as
well as the cash flow delays experienced in the income generating asset of the
portfolio, I am pleased to announce the final sale generates further value for
our shareholders."
