vergil90,
The placement price has not been determined yet. LaBrooy stated “The placement of 51,180,200 new units is slated for this third quarter. We hope to raise a minimum of RM75mil, assuming Axis REIT’s share price at the time of placement is at least RM1.55."
So if AXREIT's price maintained at RM1.70, the private placement will be priced higher.
Agree with you for this, but i have a few points here:
1. if i am the investor of the 20% sure i will invest lower than market price.
2. The 65mil deal is RPT.
3. The 65mil deal with return just a mere 5.6% will drag down the DPU (after consideration of the 20% private investment, which used to fund to purchase the 65mil)
The EPU will be lower to 14.4 from currently 16sen, which is a negative factor with me.
If i am Axis Reit management, why don't i take advantage with current low interest environment to get a let say get a 4% loan to fund the purchase, although will raise the gearing may be up to maximum 50%, but the additional DPU sure will drive up the price more than the currently RM 1.76 NAV and issue the private placement at least at this price in the nearest term and not dilute the earning like this way.
Just my 2 cents.
Anyway, just dispose a quarter and hold another 3 quarter hopefully like what u say the private placement will higher.
I am very satisfied with their previous track record, but now
(if amanah saham or related party is the investor of the 20%, u think u can get higher and bargain with GLC/related party for higher price? This depends how good the management are,

)
