Frasers Property wants Frasers Hospitality Trust to be privatised

The proposed privatisation via trust scheme has an offer of 70 cents.

To unveil the value of its investments, Frasers Property is seeking to privatise its wholly-owned subsidiary, Frasers Hospitality Trust (FHT), through a trust scheme of arrangement with a consideration of 70 cents per scheme stapled security.

In a joint press release, Frasers Property said its scheme consideration represents a premium of 43.8% and 16.7% over the 12-month volume-weighted average prices and recent analyst consensus target price, respectively.

The privatisation plan was intended to enhance and unlock the value of FHT’s stapled security holders.

Further, its scheme will require regulatory and court approvals and will be subject to scheme amendments resolution being approved by stapled security holders, whereby approval of stapled security holders holding an aggregate of 75% or more of the total number of votes cast for and against the resolution is mandated.

The scheme meeting outcome will be decided by scheme stapled security holders, as stated in the announcement.

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.
