Cache Logistics Trust raises $100 from private placement exercise

$60m will be used to repay debts.

Cache raised $100m gross proceeds from issuing 106.27m units at $0.941 each.

Analysts report that $60m out of Cache Logistics Trust (Cache)’s $100m gross proceeds will be used to repay debt. $3m will be used for issue expenses, while the remaining $37m will be set aside to fund possible acquisitions in Australia.

Meanwhile, analysts at Maybank Kim Eng say DPU is immediately diluted as the placement is not connected with any specific acquisition and the money will be largely used for debt repayment.

“Apart from dilution, Cache’s pre-placement aggregate leverage was 39.4%, a comfortable distance from REITs’ 45% limit. No debt is expiring until FY17. As such, we don’t see an urgent need for new funds,” Maybank Kim Eng adds.

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.
