Luxury resort investment company Dolphin Capital Investors Ltd declared that has agreed the sale of its Playa Grande Golf and Resort project in the Dominican Republic, as it accelerates its asset divestments.

 Dolphin Capital said it has agreed the sale with its own largest shareholder, Third Point LLC, at an enterprise value of €140 million.

This value is a 10% discount to its carrying value as at June 30 and will result in a €15 million loss in Dolphin Capital's full year results.

Dolphin Capital said that Third Point will assume all Playa Grande liabilities, amounting to €75 million at September 30.

Third Point will also pay a €64 million consideration, via retiring $59.2 million worth of Dolphin Capital convertible bonds held by its funds and a €4.7 million cash consideration.

Dolpin Capital said this disposal will reduce its aggregate loans to €102 million, from €232 million as at June 30.
