Singapore-listed Mapletree Logistics Trust has priced SGD180 million fixed rate perpetual securities under the REIT’s SGD3 billion Euro medium term securities programme.

Gross proceeds arising from the issue of the securities will be used for partial refinancing of the redemption of the SGD350 million 5.375% perpetual securities issued in 2012, and called on 19 September 2017.

“The offering of the securities was very well received with orders worth over SGD1.2 billion, being a subscription rate of approximately 6.7 times from high quality investors”, said the REIT in a statement on the programme.

“This allowed for a strong price compression from the initial price guidance of 4% per annum”, the REIT added.

The securities will be issued in denominations of SGD250,000, and will be perpetual.
