THE following companies saw developments that may affect the trading of their securities on Tuesday (Dec 17):
CapitaLand Ascendas Reit (Clar): The real estate investment trust is proposing to acquire logistics property DHL Indianapolis Logistics Center in Whiteland, Indianapolis, Indiana, for S$150.3 million. This will also represent Clar’s first sale and leaseback acquisition in the US, said the manager on Tuesday. Units of Clar closed flat on Monday at S$2.55.
Cromwell European Real Estate Investment Trust (Cromwell E-Reit): The Reit’s manager said on Tuesday it will refinance office loans early with a higher all-in interest rate facility. The European-focused Reit entered into a new five-year and one-month secured debt facility agreement for an aggregate amount of about 82.4 million euros (S$116.9 million) with ABN Amro Bank secured against three office assets in the Netherlands. To offset the higher interest costs, the Reit received four million euros from its sponsor. This will ensure its distributable income will not be affected by the early refinancing. Units of Cromwell E-Reit ended Monday 0.01 euro or 0.6 per cent lower at 1.59 euros.
