CapitaMall Trust

CapitaMall Trust: Announced that it is looking to raise $250m through a private placement, at a price of $1.79/unit, for asset enhancement works and to meet its capital expenditure needs. The issue price of $1.79 represents a discount of 4.8% to the weighted average price of $1.88 for trades done on 28th Oct11.

The New Units will be issued to over 30 existing and new institutional investors from Asia, the US and EU. A large chunk, some 90 to 95% of the net proceeds from the placement exercise will be used to finance capital expenditure and asset enhancement initiatives, including those at on-going projects such as JCube, The Atrium@Orchard and Iluma. The remaining 5 to 10% will be used for general corporate and working capital purposes. The new units are expected to be issued on Nov 10.
