The Globe & Mail notes that the “full enterprise value of Realex is pegged at $385-million, including the assumption of about $210-million in debt and some working capital.”
The Canadian Press reports in Canadian Business that
‘The board of directors of both Dundee REIT and Realex – officers of which hold 49 per cent of Realex shares and have agreed to tender – have approved the deal.”
“The acquisition still needs approval of at least two-thirds of shareholders at a meeting expected to take place in January, as well as regulatory approval. The deal is expected to close by February.”
Dundee REIT is a national real estate investment trust that owns about 11 million square feet of office and industrial assets across Canada, including Class A buildings in Toronto on Bay, Adelaide, York and University.
