Texaf 49% Stake In Petit-Point Building Sold For €5.4m

Texaf announced that Congolese insurer SFA Congo and African Rivers Fund IV LP (XSML Capital) have each invested €2.695m and have acquired 49% of the Petit-Pont building in exchange for €5.39m. The transaction generated a capital gain of €2.7m but due to the building being fully consolidated (51% with Texaf), this capital gain will not be reflected in the consolidated accounts. Texaf will continue to manage the building on behalf of the consortium. We see this partial divestment as validation of the quality of Texaf's real estate portfolio while also freeing up additional capital that management will deploy to further develop the Utexafrica compound and Kinsuka Gardens. Currently, we estimate NAVps and TEVps to be €56.5 and €72.6, implying a discount of 50.1% to our TEVps, much higher that the 2yr and 5yr avg. discounts that range between 39-42%. We reiterate our BUY rating and €45.0 TP.
