Dexus sells two office properties for combined proceeds of $443.2 million
Dexus announced today that it has unconditionally exchanged contracts to sell two office properties for a combined sale price of $443.2 million[1] , of which Dexus’s ownership interest represents $336.3 million. The combined sale price is broadly in line with last stated book values, reflecting a 0.8% weighted average discount to the 30 June 2024 valuations. The properties are:
-
100-130 Harris Street, Pyrmont which was sold for $229.3 million[1] , in line with the 30 June 2024 book value. The property is an A grade boutique heritage office building located in the Sydney CBD fringe market of Pyrmont, with occupancy by area of 83% and a WALE of 4.3 years[2] . Settlement is expected in early 2025.
-
145 Ann Street, Brisbane which was sold for $213.9 million[1] by the Dexus Office Partnership, in which Dexus has a 50% leasehold ownership interest, reflecting a 1.7% discount to the 30 June 2024 book value. The property is an A grade office building located in the northern periphery of the Brisbane CBD with occupancy by area of 84% and a WALE of 3.2 years[2] . Settlement is expected in December 2024.
Sale proceeds would reduce Dexus’s pro forma look-through gearing[3] by circa 1.5 percentage points and contribute toward Dexus’s circa $2 billion of divestments earmarked across FY25-FY27.
Authorised by Brett Cameron, General Counsel and Company Secretary of Dexus Funds Management Limited
