The real estate investment company INVL Baltic Real Estate bought back 61,721 of its own shares via the Nasdaq Vilnius stock exchange according to Dutch auction principles, paying the established maximum price per share (EUR 2.70).
“The purpose of repurchasing shares is to reduce the company’s share capital by cancelling the shares acquired. For the company’s shareholders, it was an opportunity to sell some or all their shares. Given the smaller number of shares outstanding after a buyback, the value of the remaining shares increases,” says Vytautas Bakšinskas, the real estate fund manager at INVL Asset Management, which manages INVL Baltic Real Estate.
The share buyback took place 16-20 December. INVL Baltic Real Estate had authorisation to acquire up to 100,000 shares (1.2% of its authorized capital). To purchase the shares, a sum of EUR 270,000 was allocated from an unused EUR 2.4 million reserve for own-share acquisitions.
The decision to begin a buyback of INVL Baltic Real Estate was made by the management company INVL Asset Management, the leading alternative asset manager in the Baltics. The shareholders of INVL Baltic Real Estate authorized the company to purchase its own shares in late April 2024.
Under Dutch auction rules, all shares are purchased at the uniform lowest price set by the exchange’s algorithm.
At present, INVL Baltic Real Estate has bought back 107,480 of its own shares (1.3 % of its authorized capital).
