Fully let Naas Road industrial investment guiding at €8.5m

Irish Times14-05-2025

The prospect of securing long-term income with index-linked rent reviews from a strong tenant coupled with longer-term development potential should see interest from investors in the sale of a fully let industrial asset on Dublin's Naas Road. The investment at Muirfield Drive is being offered to the market by agent JLL at a guide price of €8.5 million.
The subject property, which extends to approximately 3,716sq m (40,000sq ft) and sits on a site of 2.5 acres, is currently fully let to Hevac Limited and The Tube Company of Ireland Limited, both of which are wholly owned by Wolseley.

The property is occupied on a 10-year lease from June 30th, 2022, and is generating an annual rent of €525,000. The investment benefits from index-linked rent reviews with CPI adjustments, with a new adjustment scheduled for January 1st, 2029.
Max Reilly of JLL says: 'The property's strategic location on the Naas Road, coupled with its quality tenants and index-linked rent reviews, positions this asset as an attractive proposition for investors. The substantial site area of 2.5 acres provides a significant opportunity for future development, allowing investors to unlock additional value in this growing location.'

UK court orders costs payment to unit of Irish leasing giant AerCap

The costs are linked to a $203m dispute over jets that were lost after Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Volga-Dnepr has raised concerns that if it makes any payments, the company could be in breach of Western sanctions that were imposed on Russia after the 2022 invasion. However, the court has refused to postpone the 14-day deadline for payment to Celestial Aviation Trading, rejecting a proposal that it be paid whenever Volga-Dnepr secures a licence from the UK's Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation, or when it is no longer subject to sanctions. Last month, the UK High Court refused a request from the Dutch arm of Volga-Dnepr Logistics to vary an order that it make a $203m payment to the Irish bank account of AerCap's Ireland-based ­Celestial unit. The court ruled that the court order did not breach sanctions imposed on Russia. After the order was made, the Volga-Dnepr unit was deemed ­liable for Celestial's £245,000 costs in relation to the failed request to vary the $203m payment order. Last month, Celestial agreed to accept a lower payment of £134,000. However, the sum was not paid within the stipulated 14 days. Irish units of AerCap's Celestial Aviation, which were formerly owned by Gecas, sued Volga-­Dnepr in May 2022 claiming that events of default or events of loss had occurred under the lease agreements for eight aircraft. The Dutch subsidiary had guaranteed the obligations under the leases. Following a hearing last February, the Dutch arm of Volga-­Dnepr was ordered by the UK court to make an interim payment of $202.8m to Celestial in respect of its liabilities under the guarantees it made in relation to the leasing of the eight jets. The company was also ordered to pay £50,000 in costs to Celestial. Both payments were to be made by February 25 into a bank account in Ireland, but had not been made by that time. In relation to the costs associated with the failed effort to vary the order, High Court deputy judge Nigel Cooper said he was not persuaded that there were any good reasons why he should make any order other than one requiring Volga-Dnepr to pay the assessed costs within 14 days.

The Irish Times view on Ireland's budget policy: betting on a tax boom

The latest report from the Irish Fiscal Advisory council (Ifac) neatly sums up the difficulty of forecasting what happens next in the Irish economy. Facing significant uncertainties, most notably from the policies of US president Donald Trump, the economy could take a hit, or could hold on to most of the gains of recent years. One thing is for sure, however. Ireland is relying ever more heavily on corporation tax. And the report from the budget watchdog suggests how the Government should respond. These recommendations are, by now, familiar, but that does not mean they should be dismissed. The Government has, wisely, started to put cash aside in case of a downturn. And this should certainly help if any reversal was temporary. However, Ifac points to structural issues too – longer-term trends which need to be addressed. One, a common theme of these reports, is Ireland's reliance on just a few major US companies for a significant amount of corporate tax revenue. When the part of corporate tax revenues relating to tax planning is factored out, Ifac estimates that the underlying budget position is in deficit. There are also problems on the spending side of the budget, which have received little attention to date. Ifac criticises the Government for its budgeting for this year, saying that it failed to take into account overruns for 2024 which had increased the spending base. As a result, spending for this year could be €3 billion above budget, it estimates. READ MORE Significant overruns have become common, but have been offset by tax also coming in ahead of target. Relying on this continuing is unwise. To combat this, Ifac calls for better spending control and a clear target – or anchor – for the level of spending increases which is then adhered to. As the report points out, corporation tax could grow further, helping to underpin the public finances. But the risks, too, are obvious. Either way, the lack of control on day-to-day public spending is notable and does not suggest proper management, or a focus on value for money.
