CAPITALAND Retail China Trust has priced an upsized S$103.8 million overnight placement of new units at S$1.612 apiece to cover the rich end of initial indications.
Price talk was at a range of S$1.553 to S$1.612 per unit for the deal, which was launched on Tuesday. A total of 64.4 million new units were issued, including an over-allotment option of 12.9 million units that was fully exercised.

The remaining S$2.1 million of the proceeds will be used to pay placement-related expenses.
