Celsius: Divestment of property interests
Divestment of property interests As part of the ongoing consolidation of Celsius Group operations, two properties have been sold, one in Eskilstuna, Sweden, the other in Glostrup, Denmark. The joint purchase price for the two properties, which amounted to slightly more than SEK 50 M, generated a modest capital gain.
