Sale of Property

11 May 2017 07:00

RNS Number : 7931E
Keller Group PLC
11 May 2017
 

For immediate release 11 May 2017

 

Keller Group plc

 

Sale of Property

 

Keller Group plc ("Keller" or "the Group"), the world's largest geotechnical contractor, announces that it has sold the freehold of a processing and warehousing facility at Avonmouth, near Bristol, to CSUK1 Holdings Limited and CSUK1 Investments Limited for a cash consideration of £62m.

 

As previously announced, Keller acquired the property in May 2016 pursuant to a settlement agreement in connection with a contract dispute arising on a project completed in 2008. Since that time, the Group has received around £4m of rental income, which has been treated as an exceptional item.

 

Most of the proceeds will be used to repay the £48m bank facility raised for the original acquisition of the property.

 

The property is held on the Group's balance sheet at a value of £54m. The sale therefore realises a profit of £8m before costs which will be included as an exceptional profit in the Group's 2017 interim results.
