21. Kesko continues the preparation of a real
estate arrangement
• The intention is to sell some of the store sites
to a joint venture instead of a REIT.
• Expected to be implemented during H1/2015.
• Kesko would remain as one of its significant
investors and continue operating on the store
sites under long-term leases.
• The fair value of store sites planned to be sold
from Finland and Sweden has been specified
at a maximum of around €670 million.
• Launching depends also on whether it is
possible for Kesko to achieve such terms and
conditions in the arrangement that are
economically justifiable.
• The sale of store sites is estimated to generate
a significant non-recurring profit.
