Questions deserve
clear answers.
An introduction to the group, products and proposed model. Detailed terms are governed by the relevant documents.
Group and model
What is VERDANT EUROPE?
An umbrella brand for a model connecting agricultural assets, business finance and digital instruments. Each contract is entered into by an identified legal entity.
Has the entire structure already been implemented?
No. The website distinguishes existing ownership from planned activities. Fund involvement, individual SPVs and financing for specific projects require further steps.
Are historical portfolios current VERDT assets?
No. Figures relating to previous portfolios demonstrate team experience. They are not automatically assets of the issuer, the fund or the new holding model.
Why do you emphasise a long-term perspective?
Building land portfolios, developing agricultural businesses and establishing local partnerships take time. The model therefore focuses on lasting cooperation and an investment horizon suited to each project. Holding periods, liquidity and exit options are always governed by the relevant product and contract. Long-term investments can also lose value.
Who owns the land and who farms it?
The target model separates land ownership from operations. Land is owned by APF Malta directly or by its wholly owned land company. A separate operating SPV with the farming partner uses it under a long-term lease.
VERDT and contractual programmes
Does buying VERDT give me equity in a company?
Not by purchasing the standard token alone. Any conversion under the large programme is governed by a separate agreement and its conditions.
Does every holder have a right to redemption?
No. The small variant has no fixed redemption commitment. Additional rights under the medium and large programmes arise solely from the specific contracts.
What is the difference between a token and a contractual reward?
The standard token does not itself create an entitlement to returns. Any reward, its calculation, payment method and due date must be agreed in a separate contract.
Can I sell the token at any time?
The ability to sell depends on available liquidity, technical conditions and any contractual lock-up. A market or immediate settlement is not guaranteed.
Where can I find current documentation?
Documents contains materials for VERDT, contractual programmes and the fund. Files show their language and any archive status.
Does the website launch also start VERDT sales?
No. The new public website launched on 23 October 2026. VERDT sales are available from 1 January 2027 under the current white paper and after completion of preparations.
When are VERDT sales expected to start?
Sales under the white paper are expected to begin on 1 January 2027. This is a planned date subject to completion of the relevant steps. The actual launch will be announced under News.
Does white-paper notification mean CNB investment approval?
No. White-paper notification is not investment approval, a return guarantee or confirmation of liquidity. Notification, any register entry and the actual start of sales are distinct steps.
Fund structure
Is investing in SICAV the same as buying VERDT?
No. A fund investor acquires investment shares and is governed by fund documentation. A token holder has a different legal relationship and different risks.
Who can invest in the fund?
Eligibility rules, minimum investment and other requirements in the valid memorandum apply. Choosing an amount or completing a form is not sufficient.
What type of fund is it?
APF GROUP EUROPE SICAV P.L.C. is a Maltese variable-capital investment company. It issues founder and investment shares. The corporate documents and memorandum define the rights of each class.
What is the minimum fund investment?
The memorandum dated 18 November 2024 specifies a minimum initial investment and holding of EUR 100,000. Investors must also satisfy eligibility requirements. This threshold does not automatically apply to VERDT purchases.
When are fund profits distributed?
Fund results are reflected in portfolio value. Any dividend depends on the relevant corporate decisions and memorandum terms. The previous general reference to annual distributions must not be understood as an unconditional annual payment entitlement or a fixed return.
How will I receive fund updates?
Through client communications, relevant reports and published information. Any client portal will be described as available only after it actually launches. Website news supplements formal documentation.
How often are reports and overviews provided?
Regular updates build on the monthly communication schedule stated on the previous website. Significant developments will be published as they arise. Mandatory fund reports follow the applicable documentation and legal requirements.
Real estate services and contact
Is buying land the same as buying a token?
No. Direct land ownership, a real estate service and a token are separate relationships. Each has its own contracts and settlement process.
Who can I contact to discuss cooperation?
Contact lists the team’s responsibilities and the general email address. Please indicate whether your enquiry concerns VERDT, the fund, an agricultural project or real estate services.
How is the VERDANTLand future purchase price calculated?
Land purchase price + 7% administration fee + agreed charges + appreciation for the holding period. Appreciation is calculated on the land purchase price alone. Annual advances already paid at 10% of that price are deducted at final settlement.
Why work with VERDANT EUROPE on land transactions?
The intended benefit is expertise in location selection, legal due diligence and portfolio development. The specific service scope, responsibility and fees must be agreed with the relevant provider.
What makes the different solutions attractive?
Each solution offers a different relationship to assets and financing method. Direct land ownership, a fund investment and a token should be compared by rights, risks, costs and liquidity. There is no universal return guarantee.
Why buy land through a professional partner rather than directly?
Direct purchase is possible. A professional partner can assist with title, access, leases, restrictions and acquisition economics. Ownership of a specific plot is governed by the purchase agreement and land registry entry.
How do land activities generate returns?
Through operations, leases, improved usability or a realised sale, depending on the project. Acquisition price, costs, taxes and market conditions matter. Price growth is not automatic.
Can a sale at the same or a higher price be guaranteed?
A future market price cannot be guaranteed. Any contractual buyback obligation binds a specific counterparty under agreed terms. Its economic value also depends on that counterparty’s ability to perform.
What other benefits can professional cooperation provide?
Document coordination, land-use assessment, transaction preparation and cooperation with local partners. Management and other services must be defined by contract.
What experience underpins the new model?
On team experience in real estate, agricultural land and digital instruments. Karel Mičulka’s professional profile records 11 years in real estate. Historical results from previous projects do not guarantee future results or confirm the new structure’s current assets.
What happens if land prices fall?
An asset or portfolio may lose value and take longer to sell. The impact on cash flow, valuation and debt service must be assessed. Historical growth does not eliminate future downside risk.
Information, GDPR and AML
Where can DIGITAL creditors find information?
In News / Information for DIGITAL creditors. Updates will be dated and separated from product news. Formal procedural communications should be followed in the court publications on reorganisation.
Why may identity and source-of-funds evidence be required?
Because of the relevant counterparty’s or obliged entity’s AML and sanctions duties. The exact scope depends on the relationship and risk. Do not send sensitive documents through the ordinary form.
Where can I exercise my privacy rights?
At info@verdanteurope.com. Controller details, purposes, retention and rights are set out in the separate Privacy Policy.
Land · supply and demand
What happens to the model price when less land is available?
With demand unchanged, a smaller available quantity of land implies a higher model price. Vertical supply shifts left and its intersection moves upwards along the same demand curve D. A supply reduction does not itself shift D.
The slider is a sensitivity scenario. Its 10–100% range does not represent probabilities or a time path.
Why does the curve become steeper at low quantities?
The model uses inverse demand P(Q) = 37.255 × (4.2 / Q)ᵇ, where b = 0.371047229 and Q is in million hectares. The absolute slope increases as Q decreases. The same reduction in hectares therefore has a larger price effect at lower quantities in this model. As Q approaches zero, the model price increases without bound. This mathematical limit is not a realistic price forecast.
Which points calibrate the calculation?
| Point | Quantity | Price | Meaning |
|---|---|---|---|
| E₁ / S₁ | 4,200,000 ha | CZK 37.255/m² | Rounded national land area and 2025 transaction average |
| E₂ / S₂ | 863,577 ha | CZK 67.00/m² | Area of 15 districts and median of 2,295 asking prices from September 2026 |
| E₄ | 431,788.5 ha | CZK 86.65/m² | Hypothetical half-availability relative to S₂: +29.33% in the model |
This is an illustrative calibration using different geographies, periods and price statistics. Q₁ and Q₂ represent total agricultural land within those areas, not hectares currently offered for sale. Demand is not estimated from completed purchases. Vertical supply assumes zero price elasticity. The model is not evidence of a market relationship, a land valuation or a return forecast.
