Debt increased by 37.7% to RON341.35 million, while consolidated net profit stood at RON1.09 billion, up from RON497.85 million in the previous year, Lion Capital said in its preliminary financial report to the Bucharest Stock Exchange.
“Portfolio management throughout the year was conducted in a complex investment landscape shaped by elevated interest rates, geopolitical uncertainty and pronounced fluctuations in the capital markets. These conditions required the adoption of a prudent yet flexible strategy, focused both on safeguarding asset value and on capturing opportunities arising from market dynamics.”
Lion Capital shares have gained 27% since the beginning of the year and 79% in the last 12 months, with a market capitalization of RON2.6 billion. Infinity Capital Investments fund owns almost 20% in Lion.
