CapitaLand Integrated Commercial Trust (CICT) has closed book orders for the private placement it launched on April 20 to partly finance its proposed acquisition of Orchard Road development Paragon for $3.9 billion.

Strong demand led to the private placement being upsized from the $600 million it was originally targeting to approximately $750 million, CICT said in an April 21 bourse filing. The upsized private placement was covered approximately 4.8 times, it adds.

Around 326.1 million new units will be issued at $2.30 per unit, raising gross proceeds of about $750 million. The issue price represents a discount of 2.4% to the adjusted volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of CICT units as of April 17, and a discount of 4% to the unadjusted VWAP.

Approximately $740.4 million of the gross proceeds will be used to part-finance CICT’s acquisition of Paragon, while $9.6 million will be used to pay estimated transaction expenses incurred by CICT in connection with the private placement.

The remainder of the Paragon acquisition will be funded through a combination of debt and proceeds from CICT’s sale of Asia Square Tower 2 for $2.48 billion.
