WOOD Flash – Trade Estates: 1H24 a touch ahead of our estimates, Smart Park drives strong rental growth

Trade Estates’ (TE) 1H24 FFO came in at EUR 7m, above our estimate of EUR 6m, and up over 50% yoy. The strong growth was driven chiefly by the Smart Park acquisition. On the call with investors, Mr. Fourlis, the Chairman of the Board, reiterated the intention of Fourlis Group to sell a stake in Trade Estates by the year end, via a private placement, which would reduce its stake from 63.6% to sub-50%. This could double the free float (currently 22%) and improve the liquidity of the TE shares (3M ADTV of EUR 48k).
