New Issue: Hong Kong's SPG Land sells RMB 1.158 billion five-year 0% convertibles at 2.25%, up 35.5%

By Kenneth Lim

Boston, April 23 - Hong Kong's SPG Land (Holdings) Ltd. priced RMB 1.158 billion of five-year zero-coupon convertible unsubordinated unsecured bonds on Friday to yield 2.25% with an initial conversion premium of 35.5%.

The convertibles were offered at par.

There is an over-allotment option for a further RMB 232 million.

DBS Bank and Morgan Stanley are the lead managers of the Regulation S offering.

The bonds are convertible into SPG's Hong Kong-listed common stock at an initial conversion price of HK$8.1165 per share.

The convertibles are non-callable for the first three years, after which they may be called subject to a hurdle at 130% of the conversion price. The bonds may be put in the third year.

The bonds have dividend and takeover protection.

SPG, a residential and hotel property developer, said the proceeds of the deal will be used to acquire projects in China and for general purposes.
