CLS Holdings plc
("CLS", the "Group")
announces the acquisition of
Network Perlach property in Munich, Germany
CLS Holdings plc announces that it has exchanged contracts to acquire a multi-let office property in Perlach, in the south-east of Munich, Germany, for €15.3 million.
Network Perlach, Unterhachinger Strasse 75, Munich, comprises 9,449 sqm (101,708 sq ft) of office space which, with an occupancy rate of 88%, currently generates a rental income of €821,000 per annum, reflecting a net initial yield of 5.1%, or 6.2% when fully let.
The property has a diversified tenant base that provides a stable income, with an estimated rental value of some €1.2 million, reflecting an ERV yield of 7.4%.
Munich is experiencing a period of rising rents resulting from strong leasing activity which has driven the vacancy rate of offices in the city down to around 3%. The property is excellently located 350m from the S-Bahn station in Perlach, 18 minutes by rail from Munich Main Station.
Fredrik Widlund, Chief Executive of CLS, commented:
"The acquisition of Network Perlach is consistent with our strategy of investing in multi-let, high-quality offices and we look forward to enhancing the returns from the property to maximise its potential in the medium term."
