The sale consideration is in line with the latest independent valuation of the Hotel Strata Lot of S$100.9 million1. An option fee was paid upon signing of the put and call option agreement, with the balance payable upon completion.

Following completion of the Divestment, ESR-REIT will continue to own the business park, retail and convention centre components at ESR BizPark @ Changi, which together represent approximately 81% of the total gross floor area of the integrated development.

These actions are expected to enhance value accretion for our Unitholders."

The Divestment is not expected to have a material impact on ESR-REIT's net asset value and distribution per unit for the financial year ending 31 December 2025.
