2025 Year-End Newsletter

Update No.17
December 2025

Greetings from Merito Partners

As we approach the end of 2025, this is the perfect moment to pause, reflect, and appreciate the journey Merito Partners have taken. Each year brings its own momentum, but 2025 stands out as a period where many of our long-term efforts translated into tangible progress. Before we turn the page to a New Year, we are pleased to share the milestones achieved, celebrate the wins, and highlight the opportunities shaping the road ahead of us.

Reflecting on 2025: Main Milestones

Our investor community continued to grow meaningfully throughout 2025, now exceeding 220 unique investors who share our mission of making private equity more accessible and transparent. This year, we also proudly surpassed €150 million in assets under management and administration, reaffirming the trust our investors place in us and the relevance of the opportunities we develop across sectors.

Strengthening Our Team

To support our expanding investment portfolio and ambitious pipeline, the Merito Partners team has grown to over 20 professionals , with additional recruitment ongoing. This expansion strengthens our capabilities across deal execution, project management, fundraising, portfolio oversight, legal, and compliance – ensuring we are well prepared to meet the needs of our growing investor base and the increasing scale of our investment initiatives.

Key Milestones Across Our Portfolio

Merito Partners now manages 10 investment funds and oversees more than 20 active investment projects across energy, real estate, growth equity, buyout and evergreen strategies. Key achievements this year include:

  • Sustainable Energy Fund — we are progressing in obtaining financing to initiate the upgrade of our 71.5 MW solar PV portfolio with the integration of a 120 MWh battery energy storage system (BESS). The upgraded platform is targeting commercial operations in Q3 2026, significantly enhancing revenue resilience and long-term value.
  • Merito Self Storage Fund — BoxStorage has become the No. 1 self-storage platform in the Baltics, now operating 14,500 m² of leasable space across eight locations. Fundraising has been successfully completed with €17.8 million raised from 60 investors. The next phase focuses on operational excellence, utilisation growth, and continued market consolidation.
  • Real Estate Special Situation Funds — All projects launched in previous years have outperformed expectations, already returning 40% of committed equity to investors. These results underline the potential to exceed 20%+ net annual returns over the full investment cycle.
  • New Real Estate Projects in 2025 — This year, we executed four new special situation real estate deals, aligned with our dual strategy of Partnering with developers and Repositioning undervalued assets. These initiatives leverage Riga’s position as the most affordable EU capital for housing and growing demand for serviced living formats. More on this approach is available in our July newsletter.
  • Evergreen Investments — In 2025, we deepened our work with evergreen structures — long-term investments designed for compounded value creation and dividend yield. Among the first few cases, we also launched Lignord Group (wood processing sector consolidator) to advance succession-driven opportunities in the key Baltic industry.
  • Growth Equity Portfolio Highlights — Our growth equity portfolio continues to demonstrate strong performance. MyCabin doubled its scale in 2025, while our Laundromat network expanded to nearly 100 locations across 10 countries. These milestones provide a robust platform for continued growth, internationalisation, and future value creation.

What’s Next: Building on Momentum

As we reflect on the achievements of 2025, we also look ahead with confidence and determination. Merito’s investment strategy remains anchored in identifying niche opportunities, building scalable platforms, and offering investors access to high-quality private market deals.

The upcoming months will give investors the chance to evaluate three different projects.

🐄 Project Truffle — Strategic Acquisition in Baltic Agribusiness

Project Truffle marks Merito’s entry into one of the most resilient, asset-backed sectors in the Baltics – agribusiness. We are currently in the final stages of acquiring a vertically integrated livestock farming group from a US investment fund, opening the door to long-term, income-focused value creation.

The business combines a high-efficiency operational core with a substantial portfolio of owned agricultural land, while maintaining full control over its value chain, including in-house feed production. An experienced management team with decades of sector expertise will remain at the helm, reinvesting alongside Merito and ensuring strong alignment of interests.

Structured as an evergreen investment and supported by debt financing from a leading Baltic investment bank, Project Truffle focuses on strong cash yield generation backed by stable cash flows and more than 20 years of operating history. The investment is anchored in real assets, conservative structuring, and a clearly defined long-term value creation strategy.

🚑 MeDi Group Platform for Healthcare Services Consolidation

MeDi Group represents Merito’s expansion into one of the most resilient and socially essential sectors in the Baltics – healthcare. Driven by long-term structural trends such as an aging population, historically low healthcare spending, and steady market growth, the platform is being developed to build a scalable, professionally managed outpatient care group across the region.

In partnership with healthcare industry expert Dins Šmits, MeDi Group is designed as a long-term consolidation platform, bringing together high-quality clinics across diagnostics, surgery, rehabilitation, and wellness. The first foundations are already in place: the initial investment round is nearing completion, securing both the central management team and the first clinic.

MeDi Group aims to combine strong governance, medical excellence, and operational discipline – creating a business that delivers resilient cash flows, scalable growth, and a meaningful contribution to the sustainability of the Baltic healthcare ecosystem.

🏗️ Riga Real Estate: Special Situations Projects

At Merito, we see Riga not only as a capital rich in history, but as one of Europe’s most overlooked real estate investment markets – a city where disciplined, hands-on execution can still unlock exceptional value.

We are currently preparing at least two new real estate investments under our proven renovate–convert–realise model. These are special situations in prime locations: underappreciated or underutilised assets that can be repositioned to meet today’s demand for quality urban living and short-term accommodation.

Each project is structured as a focused, single-asset strategy, combining active asset management with institutional oversight. Beyond financial returns, these projects contribute to the thoughtful revitalisation of Riga’s urban fabric – delivering value with discipline, creativity, and aligned capital.

If the abovementioned projects aligns with your long-term investment interests, and you’d like to explore it further, please let us know.👋 We’ll be happy to provide more details and answer any questions.

Merito Partners Jaunumi Oktobris 2025 (LAT)

Izdevums Nr.16
Oktobris 2025

Esiet Sveicināti!

Sākoties tradicionāli aktīvajai sezonai, Merito Partners turpina meklēt iespējas ar spēcīgiem pamatiem un skaidru vērtības radīšanas potenciālu. Mūsu jauno projektu piedāvājums joprojām ir jaudīgs — īpaši ar nekustamo īpašumu speciālām situācijām — taču šoreiz vēlamies izcelt citu tēmu, kas arvien vairāk piesaista mūsu investoru interesi: “evergreen” jeb ilgtermiņa investīcijas.

Šajā izdevumā dalāmies ar ieskatu, kā šīs struktūras attīstās mūsu reģionā, un iepazīstinām ar diviem jauniem evergreen projektiem, ko šobrīd izstrādā Merito Partners.

Kas ir “evergreen” ieguldījumi, un kāpēc investori tiem pievērš arvien lielāku uzmanību?

Mūsdienu mainīgajos tirgus apstākļos arvien vairāk investoru meklē stabilitāti un vērtības pieaugumu. “Evergreen” ieguldījumi tiek veidoti, neparedzot konkrētu ieguldījuma pārdošanas termiņu. Atšķirībā no tradicionālajiem iespējkapitāla fondiem, kuriem aktīvi jārealizē 5–7 gadu laikā, “evergreen” fondi piedāvā elastību, ilglaicīgumu un stabilu kapitāla pieaugumu, tāpēc tie kļūst arvien pievilcīgāki ilgtermiņa investoriem.

“Mūsu iecienītākais turēšanas periods ir – mūžīgi.”
 — Vorens Bafets

Turīgu personu investīciju uzņēmumi (Family office), pensiju fondi un institucionālie investori arvien lielāku kapitālu novirza “evergreen” ieguldījumiem. Kāpēc? Jo tie ļauj:

  • veidot ilgtspējīgu vērtību, izvairoties no spiediena pārdot ieguldījumu īstermiņā,
  • saņemt regulāras dividendes ar iespēju tās reinvestēt,
  • panākt kapitāla pieaugumu, kas balstīts uz stabilu peļņu un atkārtotām investīcijām,
  • salāgot investoru un vadības intereses, tādējādi veicinot ilgtspējīgāku biznesa attīstību.

“Evergreen” projektos atdeve rodas no diviem avotiem: regulārām dividendēm no naudas plūsmas un biznesa vērtības pieauguma, ko periodiski nosaka neatkarīgi vērtētāji. Tas ļauj investoriem gūt ienākumus jau šodien, vienlaikus saglabājot potenciālu ilgtermiņa kapitāla pieaugumam.

“Evergreen” fondi kļūst par globālu tendenci. Šeit ir daži noderīgi raksti, kas izskaidro, kāpēc investori tiem pievērš arvien lielāku uzmanību:

  • What’s in Your Evergreen Private Equity Strategy? — KKR (2025) – KKR
     Detalizēts ceļvedis par “evergreen” stratēģiju un struktūru, aplūkojot vērtēšanas pieejas, naudas plūsmas, komisijas un darbības izaicinājumus.
  • Evergreen Funds – 2025 Market Overview — Hamilton Lane explore.hamiltonlane.com
     Aktuāls tirgus apskats, kurā prognozēts, ka nākamās desmitgades laikā “evergreen” fondi varētu veidot jau 20 % no iespējkapitāla tirgus.
  • Global Private Markets Report 2025 — McKinsey & Company – McKinsey & Company
     Nozīmīgs nozares pārskats, kas parāda, kā fondi arvien biežāk izmanto jaunus instrumentus, tostarp “evergreen” struktūras, neaprobežojoties tikai ar tradicionālajiem slēgta tipa fondiem.

Merito Partners “evergreen” investīcijas. Kā tas darbojas?

Merito Partners sāka strādāt ar “evergreen” stratēģijām 2024. gadā. Kopš tā laika investoru interese par šādām iespējām ir būtiski augusi. Tādi projekti kā Baltic Family Capital un Lignord Group jau parāda, kā šādas struktūras var izmantot, lai veidotu ilgtspējīgus uzņēmumus ar stabilu naudas plūsmu un izaugsmes potenciālu.

Baltijā šis modelis ir īpaši nozīmīgs. Tradicionālie iespējkapitāla fondi nereti iegādājas lieliskus uzņēmumus, bet ir spiesti tos pārdot nepiemērotā laikā, tādējādi zaudējot iespēju radīt vērtību ilgtermiņā. Baltijas reģionā, kur investoru loks ir šaurāks un pieejamā kapitāla iespējas ierobežotākas, šī problēma ir vēl izteiktāka. “Evergreen” struktūrās šāda spiediena nav, tādējādi vērtība var augt pakāpeniski.

Mēs koncentrējamies uz noturīgiem uzņēmumiem ar skaidrām konkurences priekšrocībām, piemēram:

  • stabila, prognozējama naudas plūsma;
  • lojāli klienti un spēcīga zīmola reputācija;
  • diversificēti ieņēmumu avoti dažādos tirgos;
  • jaudīga vadība, kas iegulda kopā ar mums;
  • spēcīga aktīvu bāze, kas sniedz drošību un elastību.

Koncentrējoties uz šādiem uzņēmumiem, Merito veido “evergreen” ieguldījumus, kas spēj izturēt tirgus svārstības, nodrošina regulārus dividenžu maksājumus un ilgtermiņā palielina savu vērtību.

Mūsu pieeju papildina arī paaudžu pārmantošanas (succession) radītās iespējas:

  • Baltijā daudzi pirmās paaudzes uzņēmēji jau ir pensijas vecumā vai strauji tam tuvojas, un ir ieinteresēti savus uzņēmumus pārdot uzticamiem ilgtermiņa īpašniekiem par samērīgiem novērtējumiem.
  • Ārvalstu investoru aiziešana, piemēram, ģeopolitisku iemeslu dēļ, rada iespējas iegādāties spēcīgus uzņēmumus ar izdevīgiem nosacījumiem.

Pasaulē “evergreen” fondi parasti mērķē uz 8–12 % neto gada ienesīgumu, atkarībā no nozares un stratēģijas, ar dividendēm, kas bieži tiek reinvestētas, lai paātrinātu kapitāla pieaugumu (Hamilton Lane, 2025). Merito mērķis ir vēl augstāks – izmantojot pārmantošanas un ģeopolitiskās situācijas radītās iespējas, veidot modeli ar paaugstinātu ilgtermiņa atdevi. Tas investoriem nodrošina stabilus ienākumus, izaugsmi un elastību, saglabājot līdzdalību izcilos uzņēmumos un neizjūtot piespiedu pārdošanas spiedienu. Vienlaikus mēs esam gatavi izmantot arī izdevīgas iziešanas (exit) iespējas. Lai gan mūsu uzmanība galvenokārt ir vērsta uz ilgtermiņa vērtības radīšanu, mēs katru uzņēmumu pārvaldām atbilstoši labākajai iespējkapitāla praksei, nodrošinot, ka tas vienmēr ir gatavs sarunām ar potenciālajiem pircējiem, ja rodas patiesi pievilcīgi piedāvājumi.

Jaunas “evergreen” investīciju iespējas: 2025. gada noslēgumā

Merito Partners paplašina savu “evergreen” investīciju stratēģiju divos jaunos un stabilos sektoros ar labu ilgtermiņa izaugsmes potenciālu. Šie projekti apvieno gan stabilu naudas plūsmu, gan mērogojamu attīstību, tādējādi veidojot labus pamatus ilgtermiņa izaugsmei.

MeDi Group – veselības aprūpes pakalpojumu konsolidācija

Veselības aprūpe ir viena no svarīgākajām nozarēm Baltijā un Eiropā. Nozares aktualitāti vēl vairāk palielina arī sabiedrības novecošanās un līdz šim salīdzinoši zemie izdevumi uz vienu iedzīvotāju un arvien pieaugošais spiediens uz publisko finansējumu, kas rezultējas 7–9 % ikgadējā privātās veselības aprūpes izdevumu pieaugumā pēdējo 10 līdz 15 gadu laikā.

Ar sākotnējo kapitāla piesaistes mērķi 5 miljonu eiro apmērā MeDi Group uzsāks augsta ienesīguma medicīnas nozares uzņēmumu konsolidāciju vairākos veselības aprūpes segmentos, realizējot gan uzņēmumu iegādi (M&A), gan veicot “greenfield” jeb uzņēmumu izveides ieguldījumus.

Stratēģija paredz būtisku vērtības pieaugumu, ko nodrošina:

  • administratīvo funkciju centralizēšana,
  • profesionāla biznesa attīstība un finanšu vadība,
  • organiska nozares izaugsme,
  • novērtējuma multiplikatoru arbitrāža.

Projekts paredz dividenžu izmaksu jau no 2029. gada ar mērķi sasniegt 15 %+ neto IRR. Grupu vada pieredzējis veselības aprūpes nozares profesionālis, kurš projektā investē arī personīgo kapitālu un uztur plašu profesionālo kontaktu tīklu. Ir uzsākts jau pirmais ieguldījums — jauna klīnika ar konsultāciju, ķirurģijas un stacionāra pakalpojumiem. Nākamais darījums plānots 3 līdz 6 mēnešu laikā.

Project Truffle – Baltijas lopkopības uzņēmuma iegāde

Lopkopība ir viena no visnoturīgākajām nozarēm, un Project Truffle koncentrējas uz efektīvākās lopkopības saimniecības grupas iegādi Baltijā. Projekts paredz ~10 miljonu eiro kapitāla piesaisti papildus kredīta finansējumam izpirkuma darījuma realizācijai.

Šis bizness ir īpaši pievilcīgs vairāku faktoru dēļ:

  • izdevīga iegādes vērtība, kas ietver arī vērtīgu lauksaimniecības zemes portfeli,
  • vadības komanda desmitiem gadu ilgu pieredzi, kura palielina savu līdzdalību un investē kopā ar Merito,
  • spēcīga naudas plūsma jau no pirmās dienas, kas vēsturiski ir nodrošinājusi divciparu neto dividenžu ienesīgumu,
  • liels aktīvu, tostarp zemes, portfelis, kas sniedz aizsardzību pret biznesa un finanšu riskiem un rada stabilas, atkārtotas naudas plūsmas.

Ja vēlaties uzzināt vairāk par mūsu “evergreen” iniciatīvām un saņemt jaunumus par tādiem projektiem kā MeDi Group un Project Truffle, aicinām reģistrēt savu interesi. Mēs esam ieinteresēti kopā ilgtermiņā attīstīt nākamos Latvijas vadošos uzņēmumus.

Merito Partners Newsletter October 2025

Update No.16
October 2025

Greetings from Merito Partners

As the investment landscape enters a traditionally active season, Merito Partners continues to pursue opportunities with strong fundamentals and clear value-creation potential. Our pipeline remains active — especially in real estate special situations — but this time we want to highlight another theme that is attracting growing interest from our investors: evergreen investments.

In this edition, we share how these structures are evolving in our region and introduce two new evergreen projects that Merito Partners is currently developing.

What Are Evergreen Investments — And Why Are Investors Increasingly Turning to Them?

In today’s changing markets, many investors are looking for stability and long-term value. Evergreen investments are designed without a fixed end date. Unlike traditional private equity funds that must sell their assets within 5–7 years, evergreen funds offer flexibility, longevity, and compounding growth — making them more attractive to long-term investors.

Our favorite holding period is forever
Warren Buffett

Globally, family offices, pension funds, and institutional investors are allocating more capital to evergreen platforms. Why? Because these structures allow for:

  • Long-term value creation without the pressure of short-term exits
  • Recurring dividend yields and reinvestment possibilities
  • Capital compounding, driven by steady earnings and strategic reinvestments
  • Strong alignment with management, often resulting in more patient and sustainable business growth

Returns in evergreen structures come from two sources: regular dividends from cash flow and value growth of the business itself, measured through independent valuations. This way, investors enjoy income today and compounding growth over time.

Evergreen funds are becoming a global trend. Below are some useful reports and articles that explain why investors are paying more attention to this model:

  • What’s in Your Evergreen Private Equity Strategy? — KKR (2025) – KKR
    A detailed guide on structuring evergreen PE strategies, discussing valuation, liquidity, fee structure, and operational challenges.
  • Evergreen Funds – 2025 Market Overview — Hamilton Lane – explore.hamiltonlane.com
    An uptodate market overview, forecasting that evergreen funds could grow to represent 20 % of private markets within a decade.
  • Global Private Markets Report 2025 — McKinsey & Company – McKinsey & Company
    A major industry report that highlights how fundraisers are exploring new vehicles (including evergreen structures) beyond traditional closed‑end formats.

Evergreen Investments by Merito Partners – How This Works?

Merito Partners began working with evergreen strategies in 2024. Since then, interest from our investors has grown quickly. Projects like Baltic Family Capital and Lignord Group show how evergreen structures can be used to build resilient, regionally rooted companies with stable cash flows and growth potential.

In the Baltics, this model is especially relevant. Traditional private equity funds sometimes buy excellent businesses but are forced to exit at the wrong time, often missing out on long-term value creation . With a smaller investor pool and fewer liquidity options in the region, this challenge is even stronger. Evergreen structures remove this pressure, letting value grow naturally. We focus on resilient businesses with clear competitive advantages such as:

  • Stable, predictable cash flows
  • Loyal clients and strong brand reputation
  • Diversified revenue streams across markets
  • Unique management or team expertise, with skin in the game
  • Regulated or contractual income sources
  • Tangible assets that provide security and options

By focusing on these businesses, Merito plans to build evergreen investments that withstand market cycles, pay reliable dividends, and grow in value over time.

We go further by combining evergreen structures with succession-driven opportunities:

  • Many first-generation entrepreneurs in the Baltics are retiring and want trusted successors, often at fair entry prices;
  • Some foreign investors are exiting due to geopolitical shifts, creating attractive local entry points.

Globally, evergreen funds typically target 8–12% net annual returns, depending on sector and strategy, with dividends often reinvested to boost compounding (Hamilton Lane, 2025). At Merito, we aim higher by combining evergreen structures with succession-driven opportunities, creating a model for premium long-term returns that offers investors steady income, growth, and the flexibility to stay invested in great businesses without the pressure of forced exits. At the same time, we are not — and will not be — opposed to opportunistic exits. While our focus is on long-term value creation, we manage each company in line with best private equity practices, ensuring they are always prepared for discussions with potential buyers should attractive opportunities arise.

New Evergreen Investment Opportunities: Wrapping up 2025

At Merito Partners, we are expanding our evergreen investment strategy into two new sectors with strong fundamentals and long-term growth potential. These opportunities are designed to combine stable cash flows with scalable expansion, creating resilient platforms for future value creation.

MeDi Group – Healthcare Services Consolidation

Healthcare remains one of the most critical industries in the Baltics, shaped by favorable trends such as an aging population, historically low spending, and consistent 7–9% annual market growth over the past decade. With an initial capital target of €5 million, MeDi Group will initiate consolidation of high cash-flow healthcare businesses across multiple verticals, through both M&A and greenfield investments.

The strategy aims to unlock significant upside through:

  • Valuation multiple arbitrage;
  • Centralized administrative functions;
  • Professionalized business development and finance resources.

The project is targeting dividend generation from 2029 and a target net IRR of 15%+. The project is led by an experienced healthcare sector CEO investing significant personal capital, supported by a strong professional network. The first investment — a greenfield clinic with consultations, surgery, and inpatient facilities — is already underway, with a second transaction expected within 3–6 months. We plan to team up with doctors in each of our practice areas, ensuring long-term alignment.

Project Truffle – Baltic Agribusiness Buy-Out

Agribusiness continues to be one of the most resilient sectors, and Project Truffle focuses on acquiring the most efficient farming group in the Baltics. With an equity requirement of approximately €10 million, this leveraged buy-out is structured as an evergreen investment, facilitated by a leading Baltic investment bank.

The business is highly attractive:

  • Favorable entry valuation with a valuable arable land portfolio included;
  • A proven management team with decades of sector expertise and significant personal investment rolling over their stake in the business and co-investing alongside Merito;
  • Strong free cash flow from day one, delivering double-digit net dividend yield, Large tangible asset base providing clear downside protection, complemented by rich recurring cash flows.

If you would like to learn more about our evergreen initiatives and stay updated on upcoming opportunities such as MeDi Tech and Project Truffle, please register your interest below. We look forward to building the next generation of resilient, long-term businesses together.

Sveiki!

Nekilnojamasis turtas jau seniai laikomas stabiliu investicijų strategijos pagrindu, o „Merito Partners“ siūlo naują požiūrį – orientuotą į specifines situacijas, ribotą investuotojų ratą (Club Deal) ir didelės grąžos strategijas su apgalvota rizikos kontrole.

Šiame naujienlaiškio numeryje dalinamės svarbiausiomis įžvalgomis iš mūsų rinkos analizės, trumpalaikės nuomos segmento apžvalga Rygoje, naujausia informacija apie mūsų portfelio projektus ir būsimomis galimybėmis. Taip pat su pasididžiavimu pristatome dvi specializuotas komandas, kurios vadovauja šių projektų įgyvendinimui.

Ryga: Paslėptas Europos perlas

Naujausios ekonominės tendencijos patvirtina tai, ką daugelis investuotojų jau pastebėjo — Ryga tampa vienu patraukliausių nekilnojamojo turto investavimo taškų Baltijos šalyse. Štai kodėl:

  • Prieinamumas: Būstas Rygoje yra žymiai labiau įperkamas nei Taline ar Vilniuje. Vidutinė šeima Rygoje gali įsigyti būstą, kuris yra daugiau nei 1,5 karto erdvesnis nei panašus būstas kitose Baltijos sostinėse.
  • Mažesnės paskolos įmokos: Nors paskolų sąlygos panašios, mėnesinės įmokos Rygoje yra apie 60 % mažesnės.
  • Teigiamos rinkos tendencijos: Augantys atlyginimai, mažėjančios palūkanų normos ir stabilios būsto kainos kuria palankią aplinką investicijoms.
  • Mažesnė konkurencija: Rygoje veikia mažiau stambių plėtotojų nei Taline ar Vilniuje, todėl atsiveria daugiau galimybių investuotojams.
  • Erdvūs būstai: Ryga – viena iš nedaugelio Europos sostinių, kur vidutinė šeima vis dar gali įsigyti erdvų (daugiau nei 90 m²) būstą.

Šie veiksniai daro Rygą vienu mažiausiai įvertintų — ir potencialiai pelningiausių — nekilnojamojo turto rinkų Europos Sąjungoje.

Trumpalaikės nuomos potencialas Rygos senamiestyje

Tendencijos aiškiai rodo: trumpalaikė nuoma tampa vis patrauklesnė. Kas daro šią rinką tokia perspektyvia?

  • Ryga siūlo geriausią kainos ir investicijų grąžos santykį regione – būsto kainos išlieka žemos, o nuomos pajamingumas – aukštas.
  • „Financial Times“ 2025 m. paskelbė Rygą patraukliausiu trumpųjų kelionių miestu Europoje.
  • Per pastarąjį dešimtmetį trumpalaikės nuomos būstų skaičius išaugo 50 %. Sezono metu mieste veikia apie 2 500 aktyvių objektų.
  • Vidutinis užimtumo lygis siekia apie 60 %, tačiau kainos vis dar vienos žemiausių Europoje.
  • Pasaulinės Airbnb tendencijos rodo, kad Rygos trumpalaikės nuomos rinka gali išaugti penkis kartus – iki 50 mln. EUR per metus.
  • Į rinką žengia vis daugiau profesionalių operatorių – šiuo metu tik apie 25 % pasiūlos valdoma profesionaliai.
  • Nauji viešbučių projektai, tokie kaip „Mogotel“ ir „AmberStone“, rodo stambių rinkos žaidėjų pasitikėjimą.
  • Auga aptarnaujamų apartamentų paklausa, ypač tarp verslo keliautojų, ambasadų darbuotojų ir užsienio studentų.

Trumpalaikė nuoma suteikia turto savininkams daugiau lankstumo nei ilgalaikės nuomos sutartys.

Stiprios komandos — sėkmingam Merito nekilnojamojo turto strategijų įgyvendinimui

„Merito Partners“ tiki, kad sėkmės pagrindas – tinkami žmonės, aiškūs tikslai ir atsakomybė. Todėl mūsų investicijos į nekilnojamąjį turtą nėra tik galimybių paieška – tai nuoseklus procesas, kuriame svarbiausia įtraukti tinkamus ekspertus.

Mūsų nekilnojamojo turto platforma – Merito Partners Real Estate Management AIFP – remiasi dviem pagrindinėmis strategijomis:

  • Partnerystė su pirmaujančiais plėtotojais, kuriant stiprius, rinkai paruoštus projektus per gerai apgalvotus bendradarbiavimo modelius.
  • Paslėptos vertės atskleidimas specifinėse situacijose, kur reikalingas greitas sprendimų priėmimas ir išskirtinis projektų valdymas.

Kiekvieną strategiją įgyvendina specializuota komanda, turinti reikiamų žinių ir motyvacijos vesti projektus pirmyn. Toks modelis leidžia mums imtis plataus spektro projektų – nuo miesto aplinkos gerinimo iki prieinamų būstų kūrimo – tuo pačiu užtikrinant stiprią grąžą investuotojams ir teigiamą poveikį miestams, kuriuose veikiame.

Nekustamais īpašums jau izsenis tiek uzskatīts par stabilu ieguldījumu stratēģijas pamatu, un Merito Partners piedāvā tam jaunu pieeju — balstītu uz īpašām situācijām, ierobežotu investoru loku (club deals) un augstas atdeves stratēģijām ar pārdomātu riska vadību.

Šajā juanumu izdevumā dalāmies ar svarīgākajiem secinājumiem no mūsu tirgus analīzes, īstermiņa īres segmenta pārskatu Rīgā, jaunākajiem portfeļa projektu jaunumiem un gaidāmajām iespējām. Tāpat ar lepnumu iepazīstinām ar divām specializētām komandām, kas vada šo projektu īstenošanu.

Rīga: Eiropas neatklātais dārgakmens

Jaunākās ekonomikas tendences apstiprina to, ko daudzi investori jau ir pamanījuši, — Rīga kļūst par vienu no pievilcīgākajām pilsētām Baltijā nekustamā īpašuma investīcijām. Lūk, kādēļ!

  • Rīgā mājokļi ir pieejamāki nekā citās Baltijas galvaspilsētās. Vidusmēra ģimene Rīgā var atļauties pusotru reizi lielāku mājokli, nekā tā spētu atļauties Tallinā vai Viļņā.
  • Hipotekāro kredītu summas Rīgā ir krietni mazākas — apmēram par 60 % zemākas nekā citās Baltijas pilsētās, lai gan aizdevuma nosacījumi ir līdzīgi.
  • Algas aug, procentu likmes krītas, un mājokļu cenas ir stabilas — šis ir labs brīdis īpašuma iegādei.
  • Mazāka konkurence — Rīgā darbojas mazāk lielu attīstītāju nekā Tallinā vai Viļņā.
  • Rīga ir viena no retajām Eiropas galvaspilsētām, kur vidusmēra ģimene joprojām var atļauties plašu mājokli (virs 90 m²), atšķirībā no Rietumeiropas, kur mājokļi ir kļuvuši mazāk pieejami.

Šie faktori padara Rīgu par vienu no nepietiekami novērtētākajiem — un potenciāli ienesīgākajiem — nekustamā īpašuma tirgiem Eiropas Savienībā.

Īstermiņa īres potenciāls Rīgas vēsturiskajā centrā

Tendences skaidri norāda – īstermiņa īre kļūst par pievilcīgāko nekustamā īpašuma risinājumu. Kas padara šo tirgu tik daudzsološu?

  • Rīga piedāvā vislabāko cenas un ienesīguma attiecību reģionā. Dzīvokļu cenas ir zemas, bet īres atdeve – augsta.
  • Financial Times 2025. gadā Rīgu atzina par visizdevīgāko pilsētu Eiropā īsiem ceļojumiem.
  • Pēdējo 10 gadu laikā īstermiņa īres dzīvokļu skaits audzis par 50 %. Aktīvās sezonas laikā pieejams apmēram 2500 īres vienību.
  • Dzīvokļu noslodze ir aptuveni 60 %, bet cenas joprojām ir vienas no zemākajām Eiropā.
  • Airbnb attīstības tendences pasaulē rāda, ka Rīgas tirgus potenciāls varētu pieckāršoties, sasniedzot 50 miljonus eiro gadā.
  • Tirgū ienāk arvien vairāk profesionālu operatoru — pašlaik tikai 25 % īres mājokļu pārvalda profesionāli pārvaldītāji.
  • Jauni viesnīcu projekti (piemēram, Mogotel un AmberStone) liecina par lielo tirgus spēlētāju pārliecību par Rīgas potenciālu.
  • Pieaug pieprasījums pēc pilnībā apkalpotiem dzīvokļiem – sevišķi komandējumos vai biznesa darīšanās ceļojošu personu, vēstniecību darbinieku un ārvalstu studentu vidū.

Īstermiņa īre atšķirībā no ilgtermiņa līgumiem sniedz mājokļu īpašniekiem lielāku elastību.

Spēcīgas komandas Merito nekustamo īpašumu stratēģiju īstenošanā

Merito Partners ir pārliecināti, ka panākumu pamatā ir īstie cilvēki, skaidri mērķi un profesionālā atbildība. Tāpēc mūsu ieguldījumi nekustamajā īpašumā nav tikai labu iespēju atrašana un izmantošana — tā balstās uz kompetentu un pieredzējušu ekspertu iesaisti.

Mūsu nekustamā īpašuma platformas — Merito Partners Real Estate Management AIFP — pamatā ir divas galvenās stratēģijas:

  • sadarbība ar nozarē labākajiem attīstītājiem, veidojot pārdomātas partnerības, lai īstenotu spēcīgus tirgum gatavus projektus;
  • slēptā potenciāla atklāšana tirgū, piemēram, atjaunojot vecas vai nepilnīgi izmantotas ēkas un pārvēršot tās par augstas atdeves aktīviem.

Katru stratēģiju vada specializēta profesionāļu komanda ar zināšanām un motivāciju sasniegt rezultātus. Šāda struktūra ļauj mums īstenot plaša spektra projektus — sākot no pilsētvides uzlabošanas līdz pieejamu mājokļu piedāvājumam —, vienlaikus nodrošinot spēcīgu atdevi investoriem un sniedzot pozitīvu ieguldījumu pilsētās, kurās darbojamies.

Update No.15
July 2025

Greetings from Merito Partners

Real estate has long been regarded as a cornerstone of resilient investment strategy and at Merito Partners, we are elevating this asset class through a distinctive approach built on special situations, club deals and high-return strategies with sound risk management.

In this edition we share key insights from our market analysis, review of short-term hospitality in Riga, updates on our latest portfolio developments, and highight upcoming opportunities. We are also proud to introduce our two dedicated teams driving the execution of these projects.

Riga: A Hidden Gem in Europe

Recent economic trends show something that many smart investors are starting to see — Riga is one of the best places in the Baltics to invest in housing. Here’s why:

  • Homes are more affordable in Riga than in other Baltic capitals. The average family in Riga can buy a home that is over 1.5 times bigger than what a family in Tallinn or Vilnius can afford.
  • Mortgage loans are much smaller in Riga — about 60% lower than in other Baltic cities, even though loan conditions are similar.
  • Wages are growing, interest rates are falling, and home prices are stable. This creates a good moment for buying property.
  • There’s less competition. Fewer large developers are active in Riga compared to Tallinn and Vilnius.
  • Riga is one of the few capital cities in Europe where a typical family can still buy a spacious home (over 90 m²), unlike in Western Europe, where homes have become less affordable.

These factors make Riga one of the most overlooked and potentially most rewarding — real estate markets in the European Union.

Short-Term Hospitality: The Best Use for Apartments in Riga’s Historic Centre

Recent trends clearly show that short-term rentals are becoming the most attractive way to use apartments in the centre of Riga. Here’s what makes this market so promising:

  • Riga offers the best value in the region. Apartment prices are low, and rental returns are high compared to other nearby capitals.
  • Riga was named the most affordable city in Europe for short trips in 2025 by the Financial Times.
  • The number of short-term rental apartments has grown by 50% in the last 10 years. Around 2,500 units are active during peak season.
  • Occupancy is solid at around 60%, and prices are still among the lowest in Europe — even lower than in cities like Bucharest and Chisinau.
  • Global Airbnb trends show Riga could grow 5 times bigger, reaching up to EUR 50 million in yearly revenue.
  • More professional operators are entering the market. Right now, only 25% of rentals are managed professionally, but service quality is quickly improving.
  • New hotels are being built in Riga’s Old Town, which shows strong confidence from big players like Mogotel and AmberStone.
  • Demand for serviced apartments is growing — especially from business travelers, military and embassy staff, and international students.
  • Short-term rentals give owners more flexibility, allowing them to sell the property at any time, unlike long-term rental contracts.

All of this makes short-term rentals the smartest and most flexible way to use apartments in Riga’s city centre.

Strong Teams Driving Merito’s Real Estate Strategies

At Merito Partners, we believe that success comes from having the right people, clear goals, and strong responsibility. That’s why our real estate investments are not just about finding good opportunities — they are about putting the right experts in charge.

Our real estate platform, Merito Partners Real Estate Management AIFP, is built on two main strategies:

  • Working with top developers through smart partnerships to build strong, market-ready projects.
  • Finding hidden value in special situations, like old or underused buildings, and turning them into high-performing assets.

Each strategy is led by a dedicated team with the knowledge and motivation to get things done. This setup allows us to take on a wide range of projects — from improving city areas to creating more affordable housing — always aiming for strong returns for our investors and a positive impact on the cities we work in.

Case Studies: Merito in Action

We believe that results speak louder than words. In a dedicated article, we share the early outcomes of two of our real estate projects in Riga’s Old Town — Kaleju Street 18/20 and Pasta Street 6. These case studies reflect our approach to value creation through thoughtful upgrades, efficient operations, and careful planning.
If you’re interested in how we apply our strategy in practice, we invite you to take a closer look.

New Investment Opportunities: Join the Next Chapter

Riga is becoming one of Europe’s top real estate markets — with strong fundamentals, good affordability, and low competition. At Merito Partners, we’re preparing new investment opportunities to match this momentum.

We offer focused club deals for 10–20 investors, combining equity and bank loans to fund high-return projects quickly. These deals move fast, so early interest is key.

  • Deal size: EUR 2–5 million equity + debt
  • Merito invests alongside you: at least 10% in every project
  • Target returns: 20–30% net IRR

If you would like to be considered for future co-investment opportunities, you are welcome to submit your interest via our investor application form.

We look forward to exploring new possibilities together.

UPDATE NO. 13
APRIL 2025

Greetings from Merito Partners

We’ve reached a key milestone: over EUR 100 million now trusted to Merito Partners by more than 170 private and institutional investors. In just 2.5 years, this trust has been built by offering a fresh and flexible approach to private equity in the Baltics — through 15+ tailored investment opportunities with strong returns and controlled risk. From funds and HoldCo to high-yield bonds, our investors value the range and quality of opportunities we deliver. Thank you to our investors and partners for trusting our vision. This milestone is just the beginning. There are many more ideas and projects in the pipeline that will be shared with you soon.

Succesion-Driven Opportunities:

Unlocking the Next Wave of Investments in the Baltics

The Baltics are entering a new phase of succession-driven deals. With many first-generation entrepreneurs approaching retirement, ownership transitions are accelerating. At the same time, geopolitical shifts have led some international investors to exit, creating unprecedented opportunities for local capital. At Merito, we are capitalizing on this trend. We identify high-potential businesses at key transition points and open the door for our investors to participate early. We scout the market for the next wave of succession-driven opportunities.  We are eager to share two fresh investment cases where more than 40 investors have already committed over EUR 20M.

Baltic Family Capital (BFC)

Inspired by over 100 successful consolidators in Scandinavia (e.g., Visma, Indutrade, Lifco), BFC is the first permanent equity house designed for Baltic SME founders seeking a credible exit route. Using a buy-and-build strategy, BFC aims to create a EUR 100M revenue group by 2030, built from 2 to 4 platform companies and many decentralized businesses.

BFC targets resilient companies with high, stable margins, offering mission-critical products or services and serving diverse customer bases. Preferred sectors include business services, niche manufacturing, and value-add distribution, with EBITDA between EUR 500K and EUR 5M. 

BFC is led by Alex Prokofjevs — a true Baltic citizen (born in Lithuania, raised in Latvia, married to an Estonian) — and a dedicated team already actively mapping the market. Company plans to list within the next 5 years, opening new growth and liquidity opportunities for the investors.

Lignord Group

Lignord Group is the first Baltic consolidator focused on mid-sized sawmills — a core sector of the region’s traditional, export-driven wood processing industry. 

These businesses are often facing succession challenges, with founders nearing retirement age (average 60+), low investment appetite, outdated sales models, and a lack of digital adaptation and long-term strategy. At the same time, they offer robust access to raw materials, strong long-term client relations and high-quality asset base. Moreover, the market is deep with tens of companies fitting the description in Latvia alone.  

By consolidating 5–8 regional players, Lignord Group aims to create a strong group with professional management, focused on proactive sales, process digitalization, strategic financial planning, and unlocking synergies. 

Within 5 years, Lignord Group targets to become a stock exchange candidate, offering retail investors a chance to co-own a player in one of the Baltics’ most sustainable industries. 

We continue to seek similar succession-driven investment opportunities and are excited about the value these trends can unlock for our investors. We believe this is the momentum!  

Latvia`s Solar PV Champion:

Focus on operations and portfolio resilience

As many already know, this is one of our earliest projects. It is now fully developed, with 86 investors contributing EUR 20M in equity. Together with the bank financing, a total of EUR 44M was invested to develop 8 solar PV parks with a total capacity of 71.6 MW.

The project was completed in Q3 2024 and is now fully operational. In 2024, consolidated PV plant revenue exceeded EUR 2.2M and EBITDA was EUR 1.8M, in line with the budget given that some of the plants were commissioned during the year.

Given the strong performance and in line with initial plans, we started exploring the sale of the portfolio in the second half of 2024. While we received interest, negotiations have been slow—mainly due to geopolitical tensions, high interest rates, and uncertainty around the PPA market in the Baltics. The current conditions do not support a sale that would meet our investors’ expectations.

Meanwhile, a major shift has occurred in the market: the disconnection from the BRELL network has added uncertainty to the energy landscape but has also improved revenue projections for producers with existing capacity, including Merito and Saules Energy. The new situation has opened up an opportunity to increase long-term revenue potential and resilience of the portfolio by adding battery capacity. We are currently in discussions

Leading Self-Storage Operator in the Baltics:

BOX Storage Scaling

In 2023, Merito launched Merito Self Storage Fund with a clear mission — to build the leading self-storage operator in the Baltics. Just a year later, BOX Storage project has achieved impressive milestones and is building strong market momentum. 

The timing could not be better. In the Baltics, self-storage space per capita is around three times lower than the European average and more than five times lower than in the Nordics. Meanwhile, across Europe, the self-storage sector has shown consistent growth: rentable space has increased at a compounded annual growth rate of over 8% since 2015, with the number of facilities growing by 13%. Importantly, the sector is resilient — even through the market growth the occupancy rates have remained above 78% over the last eight years, showing strong and increasing demand. 

BOX Storage is positioned right at the center of this opportunity. By early June, we anticipate the opening of our flagship Go Planet location in Riga — offering over 4,000 m² of self-storage space. At the same time, we are finalizing our first locations in Vilnius and Tallinn. By then, BOX Storage’s operational network will cover six prime locations across the Baltics, offering over 12,000 m2 of leasable self-storage space across the Baltics. 

But this is just the beginning. By the end of the year, we plan to add up to four more locations, expanding our footprint to approximately 30,000 m² of rentable space. This will complete the establishment phase and mark the start of a new stage — active marketing and client acquisition.

Our growth strategy combines the transformation of underused spaces with targeted M&A deals. The Baltic self-storage market remains significantly underserved, and we see a clear path toward consolidation, value creation, and eventual exit, whether through a strategic sale or a potential listing. 

What makes us confident about this project?

  • Low-risk profile: The real estate we acquire typically holds market value exceeding acquisition cost, providing strong downside protection. 
  • Experienced team: Our management team brings proven experience in scaling operations and delivering results. 
  • Multiple growth levers: We are growing organically by converting spaces and through smart acquisitions. 
  • Attractive industry dynamics: Self-storage valuations are compelling, supported by strong demand, stable cash flows, and multiple exit scenarios. 
  • Future-ready model: We are committed to sustainable principles and leverage tech-driven solutions for efficiency and better customer experience. 

Investors still have a window to join the BOX Storage journey as we continue raising investments through the summer. With clear market leadership within reach and a platform built for long-term value creation, BOX Storage is set to become the undisputed self-storage champion of the Baltics. 

Welcome to Go Planet BOX Storage opening

Save the Date – May 27

We’re excited to invite you to the kickoff event for our Merito Self-Storage Fund flagship location – Go Planet, at Gunāra Astras Street 2B, Rīga. This will be the largest and most advanced self-storage facility in the region, setting a new standard for the market. We’d be glad to have you join us for this milestone celebration.

First Liquidity Event Confirmed:

Adaptive Media Sets the Stage for Target Fund II Investors

2025 is shaping up to be a milestone year for Target Fund II investors. We are pleased to announce the first liquidity event from our investment in Adaptive Media, marking a major achievement for the Fund.

In 2024, Target Fund II raised EUR 4.3M in capital and acquired a 74% stake in Adaptive Media SIA.

Adaptive Media’s strong financial performance drives this momentum. The company closed 2024 with a consolidated net profit of EUR 1.26M — a 26% increase compared to 2023. Growth was fueled by a significant expansion of gross profit in key markets, including France, Spain, Romania, Brazil, and Mexico, with most of these markets more than doubling their gross profit year-over-year.

These results validate our investment approach: acquiring businesses with solid fundamentals, enhancing operational efficiency, and accelerating international growth.

Importantly, the first regular dividends for all shareholders are expected to be paid already in Q2 2025 — a major step towards delivering early and consistent liquidity to our investors.

Special Real Estate Investments:

Finalizing Restructurings and Exploring Exit Opportunities
We continue working dynamically across our real estate projects, pushing through restructurings, optimizing operations, and carefully reviewing different exit scenarios to unlock value for our investors.

Kaleju Street 18/20 – Riga Old Town
At our residential property on Kaleju Street, the focus is on completing renovation and furnishing works ahead of the summer high season. Four rental units are currently under construction, and the last long-term tenants are preparing to vacate soon.
Our goal is clear: maximize the building’s rental potential and optimize running costs during the most active rental period. In parallel, we have initiated exit discussions (building sale) and are carefully reviewing all available options to ensure the best outcome.

Pasta Street 6 – Riga Old Town
At our second residential project on Pasta Street, commissioning is in its final stages. We are preparing to launch 86 fully furnished, ready-to-rent units into the high-season short-term rental market.
Once operations are fully underway, we will start evaluating and processing different exit opportunities. The strategy is to capture the strong market momentum and deliver a well-timed exit once the building’s revenue potential is fully demonstrated.

Ulmaņa Gatve 2 – Riga Industrial Asset
At our industrial property on Ulmaņa Gatve, work continues to optimize cash flow and strengthen the tenant mix. We are actively renewing agreements with existing tenants and onboarding new ones to improve cash flow stability.
In parallel, we are preparing several development and renovation scenarios, including sketches, cost estimates, and potential project roadmaps. The upcoming quarter will be focused on selecting the optimal value-creation path and preparing the building for its next development stage.

Across all properties, the main objective remains the same: move fast, drive operational improvements, and explore the best exit scenarios to deliver strong results for our investors.

We are actively working to prepare new real estate investment opportunities for our investors.
