Prologis Merges Two Funds, Boosts Relation With Allianz

Zacks Equity Research
Updated

Prologis, Inc. PLD consolidated its Europe Logistics Venture 1 (“ELV1”) with its Prologis Targeted Europe Logistics Fund ("PTELF"). Notably, ELV1 is a joint venture with Allianz and its assets are strategically located in high-growth, high barrier European markets in Germany, France and Netherlands, while PTELF is an open-end fund with pan-European presence.

As per the deal, PTELF will acquire ELV1 for Euro 571 million and integrate its assets into the PTELF portfolio. This will fetch Prologis net cash proceeds of around Euro 183 million. This will augment the financial strength of PTELF and offer diversification benefits. Further, this is likely to strengthen Prologis’ relationship with Allianz.

Prologis is a leading industrial real estate investment trust that acquires, develops, operates and manages industrial real estate space in the Americas, Asia and Europe. Prologis currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). Over the past 60 days period, the company’s 2016 estimates remained unchanged at $2.57 per share.
