Thirty-one studios, paid for in stages.
How the 31 studios were paid for
Five studios, paid for by the founders
The founders built the first five studios with their own money.
Let them, then sell 49%
Once the five were let, 49% of each studio was sold to co-investors. The founders kept 51%.
Reinvest, and repeat to 20
The sale money paid for the next five, and the cycle ran until 20 studios stood.
The rest, paid for from rent
The founders' 51% share of the rent then paid for studios 21 to 31. No new sale.
The same model, one level up
Before listing, all 31 studios sit in one company, OSK, which the founders own outright. The offer sells 49% of OSK to the public. The proceeds go to the founders, who plan to reinvest them, through their development partnership K&M, in two new buildings that are intended to be offered to OSK later.
Schematic, not a floor plan. Studios are numbered in the order they were funded.

- You may struggle to sellAlt-M shares trade less often than Main Board shares. You may not get your price, or your timing.
- One building carries all the income todayDamage, a utility failure or a change in the area would hit revenue directly.
- Your percentage will shrinkNew shares are planned from 2027. Unless you buy your share of them, you will own a smaller part of the company.
- You pay more than the book valueZMW 12.76 a share is about 1.6 times the net asset value per share of ZMW 7.84 at 31 December 2025.
