TPG to sell up to $91m stake in Parkway Life: IFR

Private equity firm TPG (TPG.UL) is selling its 9.3% stake in Parkway Life REIT (PWLR.SI) in a deal that could raise as much as $91.1 million, IFR Asia reported on Wednesday.

TPG is offering 56.25 million shares at a guidance range of $1.56-$1.62 each, representing a discount of 6.6% to 3% to Parkway Life’s last traded price.

Goldman Sachs (GS.N) is sole bookrunner for the deal.

TPG had been expected to sell its stake in Parkway Life after Malaysian state investor Khazanah took control of Parkway (PARM.SI), which runs some of the properties owned by Parkway Life.

Khazanah trumped India’s Fortis Healthcare (FOHE.BO) in a takeover battle for Asia’s biggest listed hospital operator in a deal that could cost the state firm $3.5 billion.

Parkway Life and TPG declined comment while Goldman was not immediately available.

Parkway Life REIT target lifted to $1.91 by CIMB

CIMB lifts Parkway Life REIT (C2PU.SG) target price to $1.91 from $1.57 after increasing 2011-2012 DPU estimates by 4.0%-20% to reflect assumptions for additional $200 million in acquisitions next year, lower cost of debt, says Dow Jones.

CIMB notes REIT’s unique rental escalation clause, pegged at inflation rate +1.0%, bodes well for its Singapore portfolio: “With the Singapore economy expected to expand 13%-15% this year, inflation risks remain. What’s more, food prices may be higher in 2H10 as a result of inclement weather.”

Keeps Outperform call. REIT +0.7% at $1.55.
