CA Fastigheter acquires Lidingö Centrum

CA Fastigheter Aktiebolag (publ) acquires Lidingö Centrum indirectly through a company acquisition from Grosvenor, a global privately owned organization. The acquisition is based on an underlying property value of SEK 811 million before deduction of deferred tax. The purchase price is SEK 786 million, financing is provided through own equity and traditional bank financing. The shopping centre contains a total lettable area of just over 20,000 sqm with a rental value of approximately SEK 78.5 million per year. Closing will take place at the end of February. The acquisition is conditional on approval by the Inspectorate of Strategic Products (ISP).

Lidingö Centrum is a well-established local shopping centre on Lidingö consisting of the properties Lidingö Oden 20 and Lidingö Oden 21 and has so far been managed by Areim on behalf of Grosvenor. The shopping centre currently has approximately 50 tenants, mainly in retail, restaurants and public operations. Coop and Systembolaget are the largest tenants. The shopping centre is strategically located on Lidingö and has around 3.1 million visitors per year.

”We believe in Lidingö, which is a strong market in direct proximity to central Stockholm. We know that the residents of Lidingö are loyal to both their local community and the shopping centre, and our ambition is to make the place even more attractive for both the residents of Lidingö and all other visitors,” says Charlotte Claesson Ripoll, Regional Manager at CA Fastigheter in Stockholm.

”For CA Fastigheter, it is important to be local and to know the market. We already own the Gasverket area in Stockholm Royal Seaport, which is now being developed from an industrial area into a vibrant district. It was therefore a short step across the bridge to Lidingö Centrum and we also see possible synergies between an established retail business and a district under development,” Charlotte continues.

CA Fastigheter owns properties with a lettable area of approximately 650,000 sqm spread over six regions in Sweden with the headquarter in Kalmar. The acquisition of Lidingö Centrum strengthens its presence in Stockholm, which today includes Veddesta Handelsplats in Järfälla in addition to Gasverket.

”We are a curious and long-term real estate company that invests where we see potential. Now we had an opportunity to grow in this part of the Stockholm region, and we took it,” says Malin Claesson Stenström, CEO of CA Fastigheter.
