Published

on

AMSTERDAM, April 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — New Amsterdam Invest N.V. (the “Company”, or “New Amsterdam Invest”, or “NAI”), a commercial real estate company listed on Euronext Amsterdam, announces a slight delay in reporting its annual results 2023, today. 

Due to circumstances, the preparation and finalization of the audit of the annual report 2023 has been slightly delayed. As we consider delivering a high-quality completion of this process of the utmost importance, we decided to delay publication of the audited annual report 2023 to publication of the AGM agenda on DV. 8 May 2024.

Strategic Highlights 2023

  • On 2 June 2023, all Company’s shareholders approved the proposed Somerset Group Business Combination, changing New Amsterdam Invest from a Special Purpose Acquisition Company (“SPAC”) into a commercial real estate company listed on Euronext Amsterdam.
  • On 2 June 2023 NAI acquired four properties in the UK and one in the USA via different subsidiaries.
  • In line with its strategy NAI acquired another investment property in the UK via one of its subsidiaries, on 26 September 2023.

Outline 2023 results

Net Rental Income for full year 2023 is consistent with outlook as provided at Half Year 2023 and the Net Result from Operations over 2023 is positive in accordance with written expectations. Given accounting requirements, one-off costs (in connection with the transition from SPAC to operational company) and (non-cash) revaluations of investment property were required, resulting in a 2023 net loss.

Outlook 2024

For 2024 NAI expects to be profitable and well on track to realize the financial objectives the Company has set out at listing. More specific NAI reiterates that its current portfolio should enable it to realize a 2024 net rental income of approximately € 6.6 million and a result before tax of € 2.6 million, excluding potential impact of revaluation of investment property and or the acquisition of new investment property.
