Lendlease to sell Jem office segment to Keppel

The net cash proceeds from the divestment are estimated to be $459.4m.

Lendlease Global Commercial REIT will be divesting its Jem office component to Keppel's Sustainable Urban Renewal (SUR) for $462m.

The company believes the divestment will improve its financial position, support the REIT’s potential portfolio growth, and increase its focus on Singapore retail.

The net cash proceeds from the divestment are estimated to be $459.4m, resulting in an estimated net cash gain over the cost of investment of $8.9m.

The group intends to use net proceeds to repay certain loans, which is expected to reduce its aggregate leverage ratio to approximately 35% on a pro forma basis.

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.
