Singapore-based Soilbuild Business Space REIT redeemed S$93.5 million worth of its 3.45% fixed-rate series 001 notes due 2018.
Soilbuild used the roughly S$54.7 million it raised from the sale of the KTL Offshore property, along with cash, a S$30 million, five-year unsecured loan and S$8.5 million from its committed bank facility to redeem the notes, the company said in a release.
The transaction lowered the REIT's aggregate leverage to 37.5% from 40.2% as of March 31, and extended the company's weighted average debt maturity to 3.0 years as of May 21, from 2.4 years as at end of March, according to the release.
