CLCT to subscribe for 5% of units in CapitaLand Commercial C-REIT Shanghai IPO

The final IPO price was set at $1.03 (RMB5.718) per unit.

CapitaLand China Trust (CLCT) will subscribe to 5% of the units in CapitaLand Commercial C-REIT (CLCR) as part of its IPO on the Shanghai Stock Exchange, after receiving approval from the China Securities Regulatory Commission on 27 August.

The subscription was confirmed through a placement agreement signed on 28 August.

The final IPO price was set at $1.03 (RMB5.718) per unit, valuing the offering at $412.7m (RMB2.29b), about 7% above earlier estimates.

As part of the transaction, CLCT will sell CapitaMall Yuhuating to CLCR for $146.8m (RMB813.8m). The sale price represents an 8.8% premium to the floor price and a 3.7% premium to the mall’s 2024 valuation, with an exit yield of 6.2%.

CLCT expects gross divestment proceeds of $146.6m (RMB813.5m). After accounting for the subscription and transaction costs, net proceeds are estimated at $119.8m (RMB663.4m).

Proceeds will be partly used for the IPO subscription and partly to reduce debt. CLCT projects a net distribution yield of 4.07% from its CLCR stake.

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.
