CDL ACQUIRES MAJORITY EFFECTIVE STAKE IN SHENZHEN TECH PARK IN FIRST MAJOR STEP TO IMPROVE LIQUIDITY OF JOINT VENTURE INVESTMENT IN CHINA

− Transaction involves acquisition from Sincere Property and two entities of China Ping An totalling 84.6% interest in a Chinese tech park developer for RMB 850 million; CDL will also assume its proportionate share of shareholders’ loans
− Combined transaction will accord CDL an effective 55% stake in a tech park in Shenzhen which has been independently valued at RMB 8.8 billion
− Tech park located at the technology hub of Greater Bay Area in southern Chinadeveloping 413,634 square metres of gross floor area over four phases

City Developments Limited (CDL) said today it has entered into agreements to acquire from Sincere Property Group (Sincere Property; 协信远创) – its joint venture investment in China – and two entities of China Ping An (Ping An; 中国平安), equity interests which will accord the Singapore real estate conglomerate a combined 55% effective interest in a Shenzhen technology park.

In its first major corporate action since forming a special working group to improve liquidity of Sincere Property, CDL said it has acquired from the three entities a total of 84.6% equity interest in Shenzhen Tusincere Technology Park Development Co. Ltd. (“the Holdco”; 深圳启迪协信科技园发展有限公司) for RMB 850 million (approximately S$174 million1) and will assume existing shareholders’ loan proportionately. Sincere Property will continue to hold the balance 15.4% equity interest in the Holdco.

The Holdco controls 65% equity interest in Shenzhen Longgang Tusincere Tech Park (“the Project”; 深圳龙岗区 启迪协信科技 园) which has been valued at RMB 8.8 billion (approximately S$1,805million1) by independent valuer, Cushman & Wakefield. The remaining 35% equity interest of the Project is held by Shenzhen Longgang District state-owned enterprise (深圳龙岗区商业服务集团有限公司).

This asset acquisition will reduce the gearing of Sincere Property which has faced liquidity issues since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic and tighter rules imposed by China related to borrowings of real estate developers. The operating and regulatory environment in China has been evolving rapidly since the Group invested in Sincere Property in April 2020.

The acquisition is the first action by the CDL special working group announced on 4 January 2021 to improve liquidity of its JV equity investment in Sincere Property.

To date, CDL’s total investment in Sincere Property remains at S$1.8 billion as announced inOctober 2020. The Group has not provided any further liquidity support or corporate guarantees to Sincere Property since.

Mr Kwek Leng Beng, CDL Executive Chairman, said, “In executing this asset acquisition the CDL working group is accelerating efforts to implement the restructuring of Sincere Property. Our focus is to improve liquidity while limiting any additional financial exposure by CDL to the investment in Sincere Property.”

Ltd. (“PSHPL”) and the transfer of 50% of the shareholders’ loan outstanding (the “Loan”) to Alibaba Singapore based on an agreed property price of S$1.68 billion (the “Agreed Property Price”) (the “Sale”).

PSHPL indirectly owns AXA Tower, a 50-storey landmark Grade ‘A’ office development with a retail podium sited within Singapore’s Central Business District (“AXA Tower”). Perennial currently indirectly owns an effective 31.2% stake in AXA Tower.

AXA Tower currently has an existing gross floor area (“GFA”) of approximately 1.05 million square feet (“sq ft”). Based on Urban Redevelopment Authority’s Master Plan 2019, AXA Tower has already secured an approved uplift in its gross plot ratio which would increase the development’s existing GFA from approximately 1.05 million sq ft to approximately 1.24 million sq ft. Approval has also been obtained to further increase AXA Tower’s GFA to 1.55 million sq ft should it integrate hotel and residential usage under the CBD Incentive Scheme.

Mr Pua Seck Guan, Chief Executive Officer of Perennial, said, “The divestment of AXA Tower aligns with our capital recycling strategy to deliver a divestment gain, while retaining our involvement to create value via the redevelopment of the prime property which is strategically sited within the Greater Southern Waterfront with breathtaking sea views. Alibaba is already an anchor tenant at AXA Tower, and we are pleased to have their support in creating an iconic landmark in Singapore’s CBD.”

Brief Details on the Transaction

The consideration for the Sale Shares is based on the net asset value (“NAV”) of PSHPL as at closing, calculated based on the Agreed Property Price, and subject to certain adjustments for the NAV of PSHPL as at closing. The consideration for the Sale Shares was determined after arm’s length negotiations between PSIPL and Alibaba Singapore, taking into consideration the current market value of AXA Tower. The consideration for the Loan will be 50% of the principal outstanding under the Loan as at closing.

Within the prescribed period after the execution of the SPA, a deposit of S$16 million will be paid into an escrow account which will be retained by PSIPL on closing. The balance consideration for the Sale Shares and the Loan will be paid in cash, once such computation has been derived based on the agreed terms in the SPA. The completion of the Sale is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the condition that Perennial Shenton Property Pte. Ltd. secure financing for a principalamount of not less than 65% of the Agreed Property Price and other customary conditions precedent.

The proceeds received by PSIPL from the Sale and the Balance Shares will be upstreamedproportionately to Perennial and the consortium members in accordance with their shareholding in PSIPL. Perennial will then utilise a portion of such proceeds to reinvest in the Perennial Newco.
