The Echo Group continues to execute its strategy based on strong liquidity, capital rotation and prudent financial management. Echo Investment has decided to exercise its option for the early full redemption of series 1I/2022 bonds with a nominal value of PLN 180 million as an early repayment. The redemption will be carried out on 8 December 2026 through the repayment of the full nominal value of the bonds together with accrued interest. The Management Board also intends to support the shareholder’s proposal to the General Meeting to increase payment of the dividend by PLN 0.40 per share, following the advance dividend of PLN 0.80 per share already paid. This would bring the total dividend for the financial year to PLN 1.20. Both decisions are based on the excess liquidity that has been created based on the Resi4Rent portfolio transaction and the sale of the two buildings in the Brain Park complex in Krakow during the first half of 2026.

The decision to repay the debt ahead of maturity is another step in the company’s consistent policy of strengthening its balance sheet and actively managing its financing structure. Over recent quarters, Echo Group has completed a number of capital transactions that have generated liquidity to support further business growth and accelerate the company’s strategic ambition to become one of the top three players across all market segments in which it operates.

At the same time, the Management Board intends to support the shareholder’s proposal to the General Meeting to increase the dividend by PLN 0.40 per share, bringing the total dividend for the financial year to PLN 1.20 per share. The recommendation reflects confidence in the sustainability of the Group’s business model and its ability to generate stable cash flows while maintaining strong growth prospects.

“Early bond redemption and a planned dividend payment are a natural consequence of the actions Echo Investment has been implementing over recent years. We continue to strengthen liquidity and improve our financing structure while advancing projects across all our key business areas. This enables us to invest in further growth, meet our obligations on time and share the value we create with our shareholders,” said Maciej Drozd, CFO of the Echo Group.

As of the end of the first quarter of 2026, the Echo Group’s total assets amounted to PLN 6.5 billion, while cash and cash equivalents stood at PLN 389 million.
