Hemfosa appoints Board of Directors and names new subsidiary – Nyfosa AB
The Board of Directors of Hemfosa Fastigheter has resolved to appoint the Board of Directors for the newly formed subsidiary, which comprises Hemfosa’s portfolio of commercial properties and that is being evaluated for distribution. The new subsidiary will be called Nyfosa – a name that clearly points to its roots in Hemfosa and its corporate culture.
The process involving an in-depth analysis of the opportunities and structure for a split of the Hemfosa Group into two listed companies with the aim of creating greater shareholder value is progressing. During the first quarter of 2018, work has been done on forming a subsidiary, Nyfosa, consisting of Hemfosa’s other properties. In the event of a resolution in favor of demerger, the distribution of shares in Nyfosa and a listing is expected to take place in the second half of 2018.
