Hyprop proposes raising capital of approximately R300 million under its general authority to issue shares for cash (the
"Capital Raise"), subject to acceptable pricing.
Hyprop provided the market with a pre-close operational update earlier this week, in which it outlined the following:
- Hyprop has an organic growth pipeline and potential acquisitions which it proposes to fund through, inter alia,
recycling opportunities in its Gauteng portfolio.
- Beyond this pipeline, it has a capex budget for the current year of circa R850 million, which includes the phase 2
Somerset Mall extension, which is to be funded from existing liquidity.
- In addition, it aims to undertake a number of solar projects in its South African portfolio, which will deliver
returns in excess of 20%, as well as a food court upgrade in Canal Walk which are not included in its current year
capex budget.
Hyprop seeks capital to fund these additional projects and to position itself for potential acquisitions it is evaluating,
pending which it can efficiently use the proceeds to reduce debt in the short term.
Distributable income per share growth of 10% to 12% for the year ending 30 June 2026, as guided in September 2025
and reaffirmed in the pre-close operational update published on SENS on 1 December 2025, will remain unchanged by
the Capital Raise.
The Capital Raise will be by bookbuild managed by Java Capital as bookrunner. Participation will be by invitation from
Java Capital, which will provide invitees with the terms and conditions of participation. Any agreements reached with
participants will be subject to the approval of Hyprop in its discretion.
In accordance with the JSE Listings Requirements and Hyprop's general authority to issue shares for cash, related parties
may participate in the Capital Raise provided they do so at the price at which the book closes (subject to their maximum
bid price). Hyprop will allocate shares to participants on a basis that Hyprop in its discretion considers equitable, taking
into account Hyprop's objectives and factors including existing shareholdings in Hyprop, pricing and sizing of bids,
receipt of early submissions of commitments and due process.
New shares, when issued, will be credited as fully paid and will rank pari passu in all respects with existing shares.
