Nova (AIM: NOVA), the investment company focused on high growth opportunities in the energy, infrastructure, technology, natural resources and manufacturing sectors, primarily in Russia and Asia, today announces that it has agreed to sell its entire investment in Nova Logistics Holdings Limited, which wholly owns Nova Trans LLC, to Cairo Investments Limited for a nominal initial sum, plus deferred consideration which equates to the net profit of Nova Trans LLC during the calendar years 2014 and 2015. There was a full provision against the investment relating to Nova Mongolia Corp Pte Ltd, which wholly owns Nova Logistics Holdings Limited, in the annual accounts of Nova as at 31 December 2012.
