Investments and financing

Camping South Beach EOOD ("CSB")

During the period, the trend for high domestic demand in the hospitality segment continued from 2020. Camping South Beach strengthened its position as a destination for luxury camping holidays and beach houses, providing a safe environment and adhering to the highest standards for social distancing.

Nevertheless, the expected occupancy levels were adversely influenced due to significant Covid restrictions impacting international travel. However, CSB did benefit from the consequential rise in domestic demand, achieving occupancy levels of 75% in July 2021 and 81.5% in August 2021.

This year marked the first active season under the recently-signed Concession Agreement for the beach and CSB successfully entered into several newly-signed tenancy agreements with restaurant operators.

The Bulgarian tourist segment in 2021 was mainly driven by domestic travel. CSB benefits from the increased trends within the Bulgarian hospitality market towards camping holidays in local markets which allow for social distancing while holidaying within the country.

Ivan Vazov 1 Building

In August after a lengthy approvals process with the authorities in Sofia, the Company received permission to reconstruct one of the Company's principal investments, the historic Ivan Vazov building in central Sofia.

As part of the Company's development plan, the Company will convert the internal space into luxury, high specification offices, with the attic floor being reconstructed and converted into a mansard roof space.

The Company is planning to commence reconstruction works at the Ivan Vazov building in October 2021. The Company is firmly committed to carry out all of the works in line with the applicable regulations.
