CASSONA SE
CASSONA has signed first pre-contracts for the development of European airports
CASSONA SE / Key word(s): Letter of Intent/Joint Venture CASSONA has signed preliminary agreements with the public authorities for an airport in Italy and another airport in Croatia. Frankfurt (18 April 2013) – CASSONA (COE) informs that two pre-contracts in the corporate division of participations at European airports have been signed. Mid-December 2012 a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for a project at a regional airport in Croatia has been signed and mid-April 2013 another MOU at an airport in Italy has been closed. In both projects not the airport operation itself is in the primary focus but the growth potential of the airport and of its territory by the implementation of novel infrastructure concepts. ‘We are convinced that especially in a networked Europe the infrastructure of the airports will on a long-term basis always remain important,’ says the Executive Director Oliver Walangitang. ‘We are actively involved at two European locations, but currently we are still in the stage of preliminary agreements. We can refrain from these projects at any time if we do not achieve the results as expected. CASSONA acts as a financial investor. Our partners are the public authorities who are the current owners of the properties and respective industrial investors. In the next couple of weeks we will have to prove if we are able to collect sufficient capital for both projects, to bind co-investors and to design the financial engineering to realize successful participations for CASSONA.’ For the first time CASSONA thus is active in the area of infrastructure and logistics without a direct reference to natural resources. CASSONA is an investment corporation for targets of the business sectors natural resources, mining and infrastructure. CASSONA is a European corporation with domicile in Frankfurt Main. The shares are listed at the regulated market of GXG Markets and they are traded at the Open Market of Frankfurt Stock Exchange FWB and at Berlin Stock Exchange (ISIN DE000A1C6T63).
