Shurgard is the largest owner and operator of self-storage facilities in Europe with 229 self-storage centers and approximately 12 million net rentable square feet in seven countries: the Netherlands, France, Sweden, the United Kingdom, Belgium, Germany and Denmark. Shurgard's European network currently serves 150,000 customers and employs over 700 people. Public Storage acquired its interest in August 2006 through the acquisition of Shurgard Storage Centers, Inc.

The final offer price was set at €23 per share at an implied market capitalization of €2.04 billion representing 88.9 million total outstanding shares. Public Storage did not sell any of its 31.3 million shares as part of the Offering.

"We are very pleased with the results of the global offering and are energized by the fact that so many institutional investors share our confidence in Shurgard and its growth potential across Europe. The raised funds will help us continue Shurgard's profitable growth strategy across the European continent by optimizing our existing portfolio, developing new stores in our key European markets and continuing our role as a consolidator with targeted bolt-on acquisitions. Ultimately, the Shurgard customer will be the true beneficiary with even better more easily accessible stores," said Marc Oursin, Chief Executive Officer of Shurgard.
