Siloam signals interest in First REIT’s Indonesia hospital assets

Siloam currently operates the hospital assets.

First REIT’s tenant, Siloam International Hospitals (Siloam) has expressed an interest in acquiring the REIT’s portfolio of hospital assets in Indonesia.

Siloam is the existing tenant and operator of these hospital assets and is majority-owned and controlled by a fund managed by CVC Capital Partners.

On 13 January, First REIT announced that it had received a preliminary non-binding letter of intent (LOI) from Siloam. The REIT has appointed Citigroup Global Markets Singapore (Citi) to conduct a strategic review to assess the LOI and explore all strategic options for First REIT.

In a bourse filing, First REIT said that “there is no certainty or assurance that any transaction will materialise from the strategic review or the LOI, or that a definitive or binding agreement will be reached relating to any of the assets of First REIT.”

In addition, the REIT advises its unitholders and potential investors to exercise caution when dealing in the company’s units.

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.
