This will enhance the positioning and strengthen the stability of LMIR Trust, as well as improve its portfolio mix towards a combination of mixed use developments and retail malls that hold dominant positions in their respective trade areas.

The acquisition is funded through a combination of debt financing of up to S$120.0 million and a rights issue exercise that raised gross proceeds of S$281.0 million.
