"Optus has three staggered leases over the property, which are due to expire in June
2021, June 2022, and June 2023, reflecting an average weighted lease term of 8.67 years."
Australian currency exposure aside this seems positive.
My only concern is the Gearing from this deal.
"Sixty percent (A$110.66 million) of the purchase price will be funded by a new five year AUD term loan facility, providing a substantial natural currency hedge".
With the additional loan increasing the gearing covered substantially by the 5 years loan facility. My question is this overall still a plus ?
