In a statement today, Pavilion REIT said that it is the largest private placement ever recorded for Malaysian REITs (M-REITs).
"The issue price represents a discount of approximately 6.6 per cent to the five-day volume weighted average market price of the units up to and including May 16, 2023 of RM1.31,” the statement said.
"Compared to recent book-building exercises, such a discount demonstrates a strong value proposition for investors,” it said.
Pavilion REIT Management Sdn Bhd chief executive officer Datuk Philip Ho said that the company is thrilled about the placement’s oversubscription, expected to complete on June 1, 2023.
"This is the largest private placement ever recorded for M-REITs. This significant achievement paves the way for an exciting new chapter for Pavilion REIT and the M-REITs industry,” he said.
