Rising Stone, a luxury real estate creator & developer in Alpine resorts and premium holiday destinations, announces the successful completion of its initial public offering (the “Offering”) in connection with the admission of its shares to trading on the Euronext Growth® market in Paris (ISIN code: FR00140164Q1 - Ticker: ALRIS).

The Offering received strong support from both French and international institutional investors, reflecting their confidence in Rising Stone's business model and growth prospects (the “Group”). The Offering also attracted significant interest from retail investors in Rising Stone's project as a key player in the luxury high-end real estate sector.

The IPO is intended to support Rising Stone's growth strategy in Alpine luxury real estate by providing the Company with additional financial resources to (i) acquire new premium land and real estate assets, and (ii) strengthen teams and digital tools to support increased business volume while preserving the high standards of excellence and quality that characterize the Group.

 

Jean-Thomas Olano, Founder & CEO of Rising Stone, stated:

“We are extremely grateful for the success of our IPO and sincerely thank all the institutional and retail investors who have chosen to join us.

This transaction marks a new milestone in our growth following ten demanding years of on-the-ground development. Rising Stone was built on a strong conviction: the rigorous selection of premium mountain locations, combined with uncompromising architectural and operational execution, provides a foundation for sustainable value creation.

The funds raised will enable us to accelerate our development and land-renovation strategy in the most sought-after Alpine resorts, and to strengthen our ability to act on exceptional assets.

Our ambition is clear: to establish Rising Stone as a reference player in high-end Alpine real estate, combining financial discipline, long-term vision, and controlled growth.”

 

Offering Results

Total demand reached 1,164,179 shares, comprising 906,834 shares under the Global Placement primarily for institutional investors (the “Global Placement” or “GP”), representing 78% of total demand, and 257,345 shares under the Open Price Offer in France, primarily for retail investors (the “Open Price Offer” or “OPO”), representing 22% of total demand, for a total requested amount of €67.9 million, and an overall oversubscription of 2.1 times the initial offering.

Given this strong demand, the Board of Directors of Rising Stone, meeting today, set the final share price at €58.30, corresponding to the upper end of the indicative price range (€53.45–€58.30), and decided to fully exercise the Extension clause, resulting in a total gross capital increase of approximately €30.0 million through the issuance of 514,496 new shares (the “New Shares”), including 447,388 shares under the Initial Offer (the “Initial New Shares”) and 67,108 shares under the Extension clause (the “Additional New Shares”). The Initial Offer also included the sale of 94,540 shares by minority selling shareholders (the “Initial Sold Shares”), subject to 100% completion of the Initial Offer.

The net proceeds from the capital increase, approximately €26.7 million, will be allocated as follows: 90% to the acquisition of new premium land assets to enrich the project portfolio (beyond the 18 existing projects), and 10% to strengthen teams and digital tools to increase the number of projects managed simultaneously.

As part of the Offering, 700,391 shares were allocated as follows: 632,290 shares under the Global Placement, including 91,355 under the Over-allotment Option, representing around 90% of total shares allocated, and 68,101 shares under the Open Price Offer, representing around 10% of total shares allocated. A1 orders (from 1 to 50 shares included) were filled at 44.4%, while A2 orders (over 50 shares) were not filled.

Following the transaction, Rising Stone's share capital consists of 2,572,596 shares, corresponding to a market capitalization of €150.0 million, based on the IPO price of €58.30 per share. The free float represents approximately 23.7% of the share capital after the transaction and may rise to approximately 27.2% in the event of full exercise of the Over-allotment Option.

Settlement and delivery of the OPO and GP will take place on 20 February 2026. The shares will be admitted to trading on the Euronext Growth® market in Paris as of 23 February 2026, under ISIN code FR00140164Q1 and ticker ALRIS.

 

A well-established growth trajectory: targeting at least €155 m in revenue and € 30 m in net income by 2028, combined with an attractive and sustainable dividend policy

Rising Stone aims to establish itself as the leading integrated and structured player in prestige real estate across premium resort destinations, particularly in the French Alps.

To date, Rising Stone's development portfolio consists of 15 new luxury real estate programs along with 3 third-party contracts[1] on behalf of private investors or family offices. These projects will underpin the Company's development.

The financial objectives associated with this development plan are as follows:

  • 2025 estimates: estimated consolidated revenues of €48?m and estimated consolidated net profit of €9 m[2];
  • 2026: achieve consolidated revenue of €75 m and consolidated net income above €15 m;
  • 2027: reach consolidated revenue of €100 m and consolidated net income above €22 m;
  • 2028: exceed €155 m in consolidated revenue and achieve consolidated net income above €30 m.

This development trajectory aims to triple both revenue and net income between 2026 and 2028 compared with the estimated 2025 figures.

Rising Stone has also established an attractive dividend policy, targeting a minimum payout ratio of 40% of consolidated net income starting with the fiscal year ending 31 December 2025, subject to legal and financial constraints.
