The commercial real estate company Epic Suisse wants to go public on May 25th.

The offer ranges from 67 to 77 Swiss francs per share, as Epic announced on Tuesday.

Including the over-allotment option, the company would have a market value of up to CHF 777 million.

As part of the transaction, around CHF 200 million gross is to be collected from investors.

Epic intends to pay a fixed dividend of CHF 3 per share for the 2022 financial year and is then aiming for a distribution of more than 80 percent of funds from operations.

At the end of last year, the company's portfolio comprised 25 properties worth around 1.5 billion Swiss francs.

The focus is on the Lake Geneva region and the Zurich economic area.

Epic has office, retail, logistics and industrial properties.

With the transaction, organized by Credit Suisse and Zürcher Kantonalbank, Epic aims to accelerate growth.

In the course of the year to date, the creative platform Talenthouse and the investment company Xlife Sciences have been listed on the SIX.

In none of these transactions, however, did shares have to be placed with investors.

Uncertainty about the war in Ukraine and high inflation are making IPOs difficult these days.
