"Face slap" on my previous post as Chaoren is exploring "realization of NAV".

The last consolidated balance sheet I had shows the balance sheet composition (major items only) as below:
(1) Investment properties (retail/commercial/industrial/service residences leased to 3rd parties) at 130% of equity.
(2) JV/associates (ownership in REITs/joint ownership of properties etc) at 21% of equity.
(3) Development properties for sale at 19% of equity.
(4) PPE (own operated hotel properties/industrials) at 11% of equity

Total (1)+(2)+(3)+(4) = 180% of equity is roughly balanced out by 95% gearing + 900mil perpetual bond (5%)

As for gearing, it is 95% and has came down quite a lot, as it was 140% as early as FY20. For FY23, net interest costs at 33% of EBITDA (or 3x interest coverage).

I reckon trying to revalue and realize its NAV is been forced by rising rates/less willing bankers to refinance at preferable rates, than a desire to realize/revalue?

Frasers Property majority owners could sell company, assets amid review: WSJ

The review, which is in its initial stages, is part of shareholders’ efforts to raise capital to help reduce the debt accumulated over the past few years as a result of acquisitions.

IIRC, in the last 1 year, this is the 2nd property that FHT has "refused" to buy from its Sponsor, Frasers Property. The property has been sold to Tuan Sing - bad news for both FP and Tuan Sing OPMIs really - The Former losing AUM (Asset Under Mgt) and latter getting more AUO (Asset Under Ownership).

Right of First Refusal in connection with Fraser Residence River Promenade

The Notice was given pursuant to the right of first refusal letter issued by Frasers Property in favour of Perpetual (Asia) Limited (as trustee of FH-REIT) and the FH-BT Trustee-Manager dated 23 June 2014 (the “ROFR”).

The Managers have considered the opportunity and is of the view that acquiring the Property does not meet FH-REIT’s prevailing investment strategy. As such, the Managers have decided not to exercise the ROFR
