NZX announcement – 14 October 2025
Precinct successfully completes $285 million Placement
Precinct Properties Group (Precinct) (NZX: PCT) is pleased to announce that it has successfully
completed the bookbuild for the fully underwritten $285 million placement (Placement) of
new stapled shares in Precinct (New Stapled Shares), as part of its $310 million equity raise
announced on 13 October 2025 (Equity Raise).
Scott Pritchard, Precinct’s CEO, said “We are pleased with the strong investment demand
and support shown by our existing shareholders, while also welcoming new institutional
investors to our share register. The successful equity raising reinforces investor confidence in
our business and long-term growth strategy.”
“We expect the funds raised will allow Precinct to progress $3.7 billion (Note 1) of opportunities
alongside capital partners while providing greater flexibility around funding timing and
structure to optimise shareholder returns. In doing this, Precinct expects to maintain a
balanced approach to gearing and liquidity management.”
The Placement was fully subscribed at the fixed price of $1.23 per New Stapled Share. This
represents a 7.5% discount to the last close price of $1.33 on 10 October 2025 and a 7.7%
discount to the five-day volume weighted average price of Precinct’s stapled shares (Stapled
Shares) traded on the NZX during the five NZX trading days up to and including 10 October
2025 of $1.3332.
Precinct undertook the Placement with the key objectives of treating existing shareholders in
eligible jurisdictions fairly and prioritising existing shareholders. All eligible shareholders who bid
for their pro rata allocation of the Equity Raise were allocated at least that amount of New
Stapled Shares.
Settlement, allotment and the commencement of trading of all New Stapled Shares issued
under the Placement is expected to occur on 17 October 2025. The New Stapled Shares to
be issued under the Placement will rank equally in all respects with Precinct’s existing Stapled
Shares on issue.
