CapitaLand Ascendas REIT to sell five SG properties for $329m

Net proceeds are expected to be $313.1m.

CapitaLand Ascendas REIT (CLAR) will divest five industrial and logistics properties in Singapore for $329m.

The properties are 31 Ubi Road 1, 9 Changi South Street 3, 10 Toh Guan Road, 19 & 21 Pandan Avenue, and 30 Tampines Industrial Avenue 3.

The sale represents a 6% premium over their market value of $311.3m and a 20% premium over their original purchase price of $274.2m.

Net proceeds are expected to be S$313.1m and could be used to reduce debt, fund investments, or support distributions to unitholders.

If applied to repay borrowings as of 31 December 2024, CLAR’s leverage would fall from 37.7% to 36.6%.

The divestments are expected to complete in Q4 2025, leaving CLAR with 226 properties across Singapore, Australia, the US, and the UK/Europe.

This follows the June 2025 sale of Parkside in Portland, US, for $26.5m, a 45% premium to its market value.

Total divestments announced by CLAR in 2025 now total $355.5m.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
