EQT Private Capital Asia to acquire PropertyGuru for US$1.1b

The transaction is expected to close in Q4 2024 or Q1 2025.

EQT Private Capital Asia will acquire PropertyGuru for $1.4b (US$1.1b) through BPEA Private Equity Fund VIII Ltd., part of EQT’s Asia investment platform.

PropertyGuru’s major shareholders, including TPG and KKR, which hold 56% of the company’s ordinary shares, have agreed to support the merger.

Each ordinary share of the company issued and outstanding immediately before the effective time will be canceled and automatically converted into the right to receive $8.77 (US$6.70) per share in cash, without interest.

The merger consideration represents a 52% premium to PropertyGuru’s closing share price on 21 May, as well as a 75% and 86% premium to the company’s 30-day and 90-day volume-weighted average share prices, respectively, for the period ending 21 May.

The transaction is set to close in Q4 2024 or Q1 2025, subject to customary closing conditions, including approval by PropertyGuru’s shareholders and receipt of regulatory approvals. The transaction is not subject to a financing condition.

Upon completion of the transaction, PropertyGuru’s shares will no longer trade on the New York Stock Exchange, and the company will become private. PropertyGuru’s headquarters will remain in Singapore.

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.
