Exhibit
99.1
GAUCHO
GROUP HOLDINGS, INC. ANNOUNCES NEW INITIATIVES TO INCREASE STOCKHOLDER VALUE
Sale
of Non-Core Assets Enables Company to Sharpen Focus on Key Business Ventures
MIAMI,
FL / October 4, 2023 / Gaucho Group Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:VINO), a company that includes a growing collection of e-commerce platforms
with a concentration on fine wines, luxury real estate, and leather goods and accessories (the “Company” or “Gaucho
Holdings”), unveiled today its intention to list two of its Argentine retail properties, situated in San Rafael and Cordoba, for
sale. Priced at USD 2,000,000 and 700,000 respectively, this strategic move is among several initiatives slated for the upcoming months,
all designed to amplify stockholder value.
These
properties constitute a minor segment of the Company’s asset portfolio and are operationally distinct from its other ventures.
The divestment of these real estate assets will enable the Company to concentrate on its primary ventures, notably Algodon Wine Estates.
The Company projects this flagship business to generate revenues approaching USD 80 Million in the forthcoming years. Additionally, if
the Company manages to sell these non-core properties at their listed price range of USD 2 to 2.4 Million, these proceeds would be directed
towards reducing debt.
These
efforts form part of a broader initiative to divest non-core assets. For example, the Company owns another property asset, the prospective
sale of which could yield between USD 8 to 10 Million in cash. These proceeds would be directed towards reducing outstanding debt and
possibly issuing dividends to stockholders. Based on the number of shares outstanding, this could equate to USD 8 to 10 in cash per share.
Importantly, this asset stands apart from the Company’s primary ventures, including its expansive 4,138-acre development and its
e-commerce luxury leather and accessories enterprise.
Successful
execution of these combined efforts could potentially result in cash inflows exceeding USD 10 to 12 Million.
Gaucho
Holdings has unveiled sales forecasts exceeding $6 Million for 2023. While the revenue recognition from the real estate project’s
deeding will occur in 2025, the primary revenue catalyst is anticipated to be the vineyard estate lots at Algodon Wine Estates, located
in San Rafael, Mendoza, Argentina. Algodon Wine Estates has successfully sold approximately 10% of its total lots, leaving over 450 lots
available for purchase. The Company projects that these lots could generate an additional revenue of USD 80 to 100 Million in the coming
years. This projection does not account for any interest income derived from the Company’s self-financing options offered to buyers.
Gaucho
Holdings is attentively monitoring the impending elections in Argentina, with an optimistic outlook for foreign investors. The Company
is of the view that should the elections yield results supportive of foreign investment, it may pave the way for a more stable business
climate. This optimistic stance is in line with the Company’s strategy to leverage the changing economic and political landscape
for growth.
“Gaucho
Holdings’ portfolio is comprised of substantial real estate assets. We perceive a notable disparity between our company’s
current market capitalization and its intrinsic value. Our job is now to close that gap. By divesting some of these non-core real estate
assets, we can channel our energies more effectively towards our mainstay ventures. Our ongoing efforts are directed at unlocking the
potential of these assets to amplify stockholder value,” said Scott L. Mathis, Founder, Chief Executive Officer, and Chairman of
the Board of Directors of Gaucho Group Holdings, Inc. “Additionally, we have a lineup of initiatives in the pipeline, further aiming
to enhance the value for our stockholders.
“We
see Argentina on the brink of a positive transformation. After enduring decades of hyperinflation, rapid peso devaluation, and lack of
investor confidence, there’s a noticeable shift in the country’s outlook. The election could bode well for real estate and
the economy. There’s speculation about Argentina potentially dollarizing its economy. Should this materialize, banks might revert
to the traditional retail banking approach of providing mortgages—a market that is currently almost non-existent in Argentina.
This shift could profoundly bolster real estate values in the country.
“Our
optimism drives us to intensify our efforts in developing more real estate and acquiring cash-flow-producing properties, available at
a fraction of global costs. We don’t anticipate an overnight transition from a struggling economy to greatness, but rather a move
from challenging to less challenging, which can significantly impact the value and global interest in Argentine assets. We firmly believe
that Argentina presents one of the most compelling contrarian investment opportunities in the world today.”
About
Gaucho Group Holdings, Inc.
For
more than ten years, Gaucho Group Holdings, Inc.’s (gauchoholdings.com) mission has been to source and develop opportunities in
Argentina’s undervalued luxury real estate and consumer marketplace. Our company has positioned itself to take advantage of the
continued and fast growth of global e-commerce across multiple market sectors, with the goal of becoming a leader in diversified luxury
goods and experiences in sought after lifestyle industries and retail landscapes. With a concentration on fine wines (algodonfinewines.com
& algodonwines.com.ar), hospitality (algodonhotels.com), and luxury real estate (algodonwineestates.com) associated with our proprietary
Algodon brand, as well as the leather goods, ready-to-wear and accessories of the fashion brand Gaucho – Buenos Aires® (gaucho.com),
these are the luxury brands in which Argentina finds its contemporary expression.
