“Listing on the First North Growth Market is a significant step for our company, because it will allow us to enter the capital markets and gradually expand our ownership base, while also increasing the liquidity of the company's shares. It will also strengthen our ability to implement our growth strategy by expanding the spectrum of potential financing instruments. At the same time, we are able to offer investors a new alternative, namely an opportunity to invest in a residential real estate investment company with a concept differing from those of our main competitors. We have grown our portfolio strongly in Tallinn in recent years. We aim to keep the focus of our growth mainly in the Tallinn rental market, as we see that Tallinn’s still relatively undeveloped rental market offers us interesting growth opportunities also in the future,” says Jaakko Sinnemaa, CEO of Asuntosalkku.

“We are pleased to welcome Asuntosalkku to Nasdaq First North Growth Market,” says Henrik Husman, President of Nasdaq Helsinki. “Listing of Asuntosalkku gives a new opportunity for investors to invest in real estate through the public market. We look forward to follow Asuntosalkku as a listed company.”

Asuntosalkku has appointed OP Corporate Bank Plc as its Certified Adviser.
