CLS HOLDINGS PLC ('CLS') ANNOUNCES
A NEW ACQUISITION IN SOLNA BUSINESS PARK
The Board of CLS is pleased to announce that CLS has purchased a further
building in Solna Business Park, known as Yrket 3, at a total price of SEK 70
million (£5.26 million) inclusive of costs.
The property generates a net rental income of SEK 4,964,000 (£373,233) p.a.
(SEK 811 psm (£5.67 psft)), 85% of which is secured until 2009. The return on
equity based on a completed loan facility of SEK 50,250,000, interest only, is

The property, comprising 6,118 sq m (65,855 sq ft) of offices, light industrial

Believes that the property has significant development potential in its own
right.

will add value to our holdings at Solna Business Park.'
