Keppel sells Saigon Sports City stake at a discount

The deal was first announced in 2024.

Keppel Ltd, through its subsidiary Jencity Ltd, has lowered the sale price of its 70% stake in Saigon Sports City Ltd to HTV Dai Phuoc Co. Ltd (Dai Phuoc) and Vinobly Investment Real Estate Joint Stock Company (Vinobly)

In a bourse filing, Keppel said Dai Phuoc and Vinobly have agreed to amend the terms of the divestments referred to in the 2024 announcement.

Under the new deal, Dai Phuoc and Vinobly will each buy 35% stake in Saigon Sports City at $128.5m or approximately VND2.59t.

The two will also extend a loan to Saigon Sports City of $48.4m, which will be used to repay part of an existing loan owed to Jencity.

When the deal was first announced in 2024, Dai Phuoc was to pay Jencity a cash consideration of $16.8m for 5% stake, and as much as S$172.8m for another 30% depending on when the conditions precedent are fulfilled, and subject to completion adjustments.

Meanwhile, Vinobly was previously offered 35% for as much as $201.5m.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
