Manuel Leuthold, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Varia US, said: “We are very pleased with the excellent operating results in the first six months of the year 2021. These results reflect the strong and growing financial performance of our portfolio. They also demonstrate our ability to dispose non-strategic assets with a significant premium as well as our capacity to find strong off-market deals to grow Varia US’ portfolio, both in terms of size and quality. Based on the positive development of our business and as long as the overall health and economic environment does not change tremendously, we expect a solid second half of the year allowing to continue a strong distribution policy to our valued shareholders.”
