Acquisition of Shares in Arena
PPHE Hotel Group, an international hospitality company which
together with its subsidiaries (the "Group") owns and develops
hotels and resorts, operates the Park Plaza(R) brand in EMEA and
owns the art'otel(R) brand, announces that the Group has increased
its controlling ownership interest in Arena Hospitality Group d.d
("Arena"), whose shares are listed on the Prime market of the
Zagreb Stock Exchange, by acquiring an additional 26,247 shares at
a price of HRK 371.8 per share. Arena acquired the remaining 25,000
shares which were offered for sale.
By way of background, CERP (a governmental body in Croatia)
announced earlier this year of their intention to dispose of their
minority positions across various listed and unlisted companies,
including Arena. The Group was therefore presented with an
opportunity to acquire these shares of Arena.
Following this acquisition and buyback by Arena, the Group now
owns 2,691,723 shares in Arena, representing 52.93% of its voting
shares.
