CapitaLand Ascendas REIT completes acquisition of 9 Tai Seng Drive

$275.5m used from private placement.

CapitaLand Ascendas REIT Management Limited has completed the acquisition of the data centre at 9 Tai Seng Drive.

Following the launch of the private placement and subsequent announcements on 29 May, 3 June, 6 June, 31 July, and 6 August 2025, the REIT confirmed that approximately $275.5m, representing 55.1% of the gross proceeds of about $500m from the private placement, was utilised to partially finance the acquisition of 100% ownership of the 9 Tai Seng Drive property.

The manager also reallocated $0.8m of unspent fees and expenses from the placement to further finance the purchase.

With this transaction, the gross proceeds from the private placement have now been fully utilised.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
