CICT completes acquisition of Paragon

The trust fully utilised the $750m raised through its private placement to help finance the deal.

CapitaLand Integrated Commercial Trust has completed its acquisition of Paragon, giving it full ownership of the freehold property through Paragon Trust and Orchard 290.

CICT also fully utilised the $750m in gross proceeds raised through its private placement.

Of the amount, $740.5m was used to partially finance the acquisition and related costs, whilst $9.5m was allocated to fees and expenses connected with the private placement.

Transaction-related expenses were $0.1m lower than initially expected, with the difference reallocated to the acquisition and associated costs.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
