€103M Whole Loan, Pan European Debt Facility, CRE Portfolio
A developer was seeking acquisition finance for 5 Core Assets, across Republic of Ireland and Portugal.
Klug Nowy was appointed to structure a €103.8M senior and subordinated debt facility to support the acquisition, refinancing and enhancement of a five-asset commercial real estate portfolio across Rep.Ireland and Portugal.
The portfolio comprised retail parks, town-centre schemes and single-let blue-chip retail units, underwritten to deliver a blended yield of c.17.9%, with stabilised assets demonstrating WAULT profiles of up to 17 years (with shorter 6-year WAULT assets targeted for repositioning). Projected stabilised Net Income exceeded €22M per annum, with strong covenant concentration among national and multinational retailers.
Our mandate focused on lender-grade underwriting: income durability, tenant covenant analysis, WAULT risk assessment, capital structuring, covenant modelling (LTV and ICR), and refinance sensitivity analysis.
As part of the aquisition, we structured the debt approach for a large-scale Dublin Airport car park opportunity, supported by a detailed operational model projecting EBITDA above €16M with substantial covenant headroom.
Although the airport asset was ultimately lost at auction, the engagement demonstrates Klug Nowy’s capability to structure and present institutional-scale debt transactions, combining asset management strategy with bank-ready financial models, across complex, cross-border mandates.
