HELSINKI, July 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Citycon purchased an additional notional amount of approx. EUR 20 million of its bond maturing in 2027. In the last three weeks, Citycon repurchased a total notional amount of EUR 54 million of its bonds for approximately EUR 50 million in cash. This brings its year-to-date notional repurchases to approx. EUR 79 million using approx. EUR 75 million of cash.

In addition, we continue to demonstrate strong and accretive capital allocation by using part of the proceeds from our two non-core dispositions in Norway, which were sold at a net initial yield of 5.2%, to repurchase our bonds at an average yield of 5.3%.", says Bret McLeod, Citycon´s Chief Financial Officer.
