Santiago, Chile, 28 July 2024.-Mallplaza held a successful share placement after the shares renounced by its controller Falabella (59.2% of the total new shares) were auctioned off on the Santiago Stock Exchange, raising CLP 182,694 million. The auction was oversubscribed 3.5 times.

This process underscored international investors' strong interest, after acquiring 40% of the shares offered.

The company placed 136 million of its shares at a unit price of CLP 1,340, funds that will be used to partially finance the acquisition of 100% of Fallabella's shopping centers in Peru.

The transaction enhances the share's liquidity, diversifies its shareholder base and increases its free float.
