Keppel Corporation (KEP) announced that its wholly
owned subsidiary, Keppel Real Estate Investment Pte Ltd, has entered into a
sale and purchase agreement with Goldman Sachs (the placement agent) for the
sale of 180m units of Keppel REIT (6.7% of total issued units of KREIT) for
S$1.555/unit.
The aggregate cash consideration of S$279.9m took into account
KREIT’s last transacted price of S$1.605/unit as at 20 May 2013 and the 30-day
VWAP of S$1.5129.
This is at a premium to the book value and NTA/share of
S$1.31 and S$1.28, respectively, as at 31 Mar 2013. Upon completion of the sale
(expected 27 May), KEP’s interest in KREIT remains substantial (from 58.2% to
51.5%)
