In a bourse filing, MLT said the issue price represents a discount of 1.5% to the adjusted volume weighted average price (AVWP) of $1.6739 per unit and 2.9% to the VWAP of $1.6989 per unit of all trades in the units done on the SGX-ST for the preceding market day on 29 March up to the time the Placement Agreement was signed on 30 March.

MLT expects to raise $200.0m from its private placement.

The company will set aside $145.5m or 73% of the total gross process to repay existing debts, whilst it will allocate $50.0m or 25% to partially fund the proposed acquisitions of six logistics assets located in Japan, one logistics asset located in Sydney, Australia and one logistics asset located in Icheon-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea.

The company will use the remaining $4.5m (2%) to pay the estimated professional and other fees and expenses incurred or to be incurred by MLT in connection with the acquisitions and the private placement.

Trading of the new units on the Singapore Exchange Securities Trading Limited (SGX-ST) will commence on 11 April at 9 am.

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.
