STOCKLAND SELLS ITS 50% STAKE IN EXCHANGE PLAZA
Stockland has sold its half stake in Exchange Plaza in Perth to AMP Capital Wholesale Office Fund for $157.7 million.
The price represents a premium of $7.7 million or 5.1% to 30 June 2011 book value.
CEO Commercial Property John Schroder said: “We continue to execute our strategy to selectively sell Office and Industrial assets to cost-effectively fund our security buyback, grow our core businesses and maintain low debt.
“This transaction brings our total sales so far in FY12 to $783 million, demonstrating the success of our asset sales program,” Mr Schroder said.
“The sale is an excellent result for Stockland, crystallising the increase in the asset value over the past year. By selling the asset now we have benefited from the current appetite for quality office property in the Perth market.”
