SGX Catalist-Listed CCM Group To Invest US$4.3 Million To Tap Real Estate Opportunities In The United States
SINGAPORE, 12 February 2014 SGX Catalist-listed CCM Group Limited (CCM or the Company) announced today that its wholly-owned property development and investment subsidiary CCM Property Pte. Ltd. (CCMP) will invest US$4.3 million (S$5.5 million) to purchase (the Land Investment) a 136-acre parcel of land in Houston, Texas, the United States (the Land). CCMP intends to incorporate a wholly-owned subsidiary in Singapore which will hold a 60%stake in a limited partnership domiciled in Texas (the Partnership Vehicle) created for the purpose of holding the Land. The remaining 40%-stake in the Partnership Vehicle will be held by independent third parties. CCM shareholders had on 20 November 2013 approved the proposals to raise up to a combined S$41.0 million - S$36.0 million from the issue of up to 3.42 billion warrants (the Warrants) and a further S$5.0 million from the issue of exchangeable notes. The Land Investment will be financed by proceeds raised to date from the exercise of the Warrants. Compared to Asia, the U.S. real estate market appears to be in a stage of its market cycle in which investment opportunities continue to exist. We will carefully assess these opportunities with a view to enhancing shareholder value, said Mr Joseph Liew, CCMs Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Assuming full conversion of the Warrants exercisable for up to three years from the date of issue, CCMs issued share capital base will increase by more than 20-fold to 3.60 billion shares from 171.22 million shares before the issue and conversion of the Warrants. The Company will provide further updates to shareholders as and when there are material developments on the Land Investment.
