Bulgaria Development Holdings Limited, a wholly-owned unit of CCL, owned 100% of the capital of Golf Club until June, 2019, when it sold its entire stake. Golf Club was owner of St. Sofia Golf Club and Spa centre, planned to be part of an entertainment and business complex near Sofia carrying an estimated price of over 1.5 billion euro.
CCL currently has a market capitalisation of 17.2 billion levs.
CCL was admitted to trading on the Bulgarian Stock Exchange in October 2017, and with market capitalisation of 13.3 billion levs became the biggest in this regard on the Sofia bourse. However, since then, a total of seven transactions with its shares were concluded on the floor of the stock exchange in Sofia, which is below the minimum requirement for trading on the bourse's main market. As a result, the company was removed from the bourse's main market in January 2018 and was transferred to the Alternative Market of the Sofia bourse.
