Sansiri has established Sansiri Capital and is preparing to close a deal for 100% ownership of The Lake Como EDITION, an ultra-luxury trophy asset in Italy valued at over 200 million euros. Naphatthorn Taveesinn, President of International Operations at Sansiri Public Company Limited and Managing Director of Sansiri Capital, stated that acquiring The Lake Como EDITION is a critical step in executing Sansiri's New S-Curve strategy to create financial flexibility and spread risk across a global luxury hospitality portfolio, with a focus on ultra-luxury trophy assets in gateway cities and global leisure destinations that have high demand but limited supply. This capital allocation strategy aims to generate maximum long-term shareholder returns.

Sansiri is reinforcing its world-class investment expertise and expanding its track record of proven success in global markets, including SoHo, a luxury hotel in the heart of New York's SoHo district, and the creation of Standard International's brand value, which was sold to Hyatt Hotels Corporation for a combined 355 million US dollars. Sansiri Capital will apply this expertise to manage The Lake Como EDITION investment to diversify revenue sources across major international currencies. The company continues to actively seek investment opportunities in luxury trophy assets across premier leisure destinations and key gateway cities worldwide to elevate Sansiri's status as a comprehensive global real estate and lifestyle investment platform.

Sansiri Capital is a world-class strategic fund that manages private equity investments with a focus on enhancing luxury hotel business investments in trophy assets, targeting returns through dividends and sustainable growth. The company has signed a Sale and Purchase Agreement to acquire 100% ownership of The Lake Como EDITION, a five-star ultra-luxury hotel and new landmark on Lake Como in Italy, a trophy asset valued at over 200 million euros (approximately 8 billion baht). The deal involves leading global co-investors Bain Capital and Omnam Group, with the transaction scheduled to close by the end of September 2026, after which revenue will be immediately recognized by the fund.

This investment represents a strategic move to acquire an ultra-luxury trophy asset on a prime, high-potential, and rare location on Lake Como, a world-class global leisure destination with severe restrictions on new area development and increasingly scarce land, ensuring long-term value appreciation. The deal offers attractive returns with a focus on value creation since the property has been fully renovated and is already operational, eliminating construction and development risks while generating high-quality cash flow. This is reflected in the High Season performance (July–August 2026), which achieved an occupancy rate exceeding 70% and an average daily rate of over 1,500 euros per night. The Lake Como EDITION is a five-star ultra-luxury hotel and new landmark on Lake Como.
