Ina Invest: On course for growth
Ina Invest, which was formed in spring 2020 as a spin-off from Implenia, can look back on a successful first half of 2021. In the second half of the year, the company intends to grow further and is examining "promising acquisition opportunities".
Ina Invest AG, which has been listed on the stock exchange since June 2020, can report an operating result (EBIT) of CHF 3.1 million for the first half of 2021. According to the company, rising sales proceeds from condominiums, higher rental income and positive net revaluations contributed to the successful business performance. The revaluation of investment properties resulted in a plus of CHF 3.8 million; the net profit was CHF 2.9 million.
The value of the real estate portfolio rose by CHF 19 million to CHF 385 million; Ina Invest reported CHF 1.2 million in rental income. In the first half of the year under review, the company acquired a further property for CHF 60 million, thus already exceeding its acquisition target for the year as a whole, according to the company. The property generates rental income of CHF 2 million p.a.. The transfer of ownership will only take place in the current half-year, so the purchase will not yet have an impact on the result in the half-year under review.
Ina Invest is on track with its development projects: according to the information provided, all properties under construction are on schedule. In the second half of 2021, the company intends to continue its strong growth; to this end, it is already examining "promising acquisition opportunities". (bw)
