CapitaLand Ascendas REIT’s (CLAR) manager has agreed to divest 21 Jalan Buroh in Singapore for $112.8 million. 21 Jalan Buroh is a three-storey ramp-up warehouse with a seven-storey ancillary office block.
The proposed sale price is at a significant premium to the original purchase price of $58.4 million when CLAR acquired the property in 2006, and at a premium to the average of two independent market valuations $67.5 million as at July 1. The estimated sale proceeds are likely to be $102.9 million.
The divestment of the property is not expected to impact CLAR’s NAV and DPU for FY2024.
On a pro forma basis, the NPI would fall by $4.6 million, and DPU would decline by 0.085 cents. Pro forma aggregate leverage would be 37.4% instead o 37.9%. CLAR’s FY2024 NPI was $1.032 billion, and DPU was 15.16 cents.
