IN BRIEF: Minoan Group upgrades forecast for Cavo Sidero project

Minoan Group PLC - developer of hotel resort projects in Crete - Expects annual revenue from its planned Cavo Sidero resort to be "considerably in excess of EUR100 million". This is based on an updated business plan for the project, prepared with the help of property agent Savills PLC, that takes into account recent increases in room rates at high-end tourist resorts. Cavo Sidero sits on a peninsula facing the Mediterranean, and Minoan is permitted to build 108,000 square metres of space in five locations for hotels and resorts. Minoan says it continues to talk to the Public Welfare Ecclesiastical Foundation Panagia Akrotiriani about being granted an 'epifania', equivalent to a 99-year ground lease, for the project. In the meantime, Minoan is moving ahead on the basis of its existing contract. It is preparing an environmental study, which is required before building.

Alongside this, the team is moving forward with the environmental studies required as part of the final planning process. Both actions are assisting in the discussions on the final format and shape of the initial agreement with the first of the hotel groups." Says as part of ongoing commercial activities, it has had a number of discussions in recent weeks regarding third parties taking "meaningful interests" in the project. Says: "These discussions are being actively pursued and, if successful, the company will make the appropriate announcements in due course."

IN BRIEF: Minoan schedules meeting to help settle loan and liabilities

Minoan Group PLC - Croydon, England-based developer of the Itanos Gaia resort hotel project in Crete - Says re-convened annual general meeting to consider accounts for the year ended October 31 will be held on November 10. Company will hold a general meeting on the same day. Will propose two resolutions regarding authority to issue shares to DAGG LLP, having said in late August it will issue 70.7 million shares at 1 pence each to DAGG to clear half of a GBP1.4 million loan. Minoan will also request authority to issue up to 120 million shares at 2p each on average, to settle up to GBP2.8 million of balance sheet liabilities. Says this will improve the balance sheet's security and prepare Minoan for the next stage of development. Chair Christopher Egleton says prioritising liability reduction "demonstrates in a real way that the company and the Itanos Gaia project...are currently significantly undervalued."
