A wholly-owned unit of Oxley Holdings has exercised an option to purchase a 462 sq m freehold site at Tessensohn Road for $14.5 million, revealed an SGX filing on Friday (3 November).
The vacant land zoned for residential with commercial at the ground floor is being acquired by Oxley Amethyst Pte Ltd from unrelated firm Urban Development Pte Ltd.
Previously, Oxley Amethyst paid $145,000 when the option was granted on 5 October and paid another $580,000 when it decided to proceed with the transaction.
The property is being sold with vacant possession, and the consideration’s remaining balance will be paid upon the deal’s completion within ten weeks from the of acceptance of the option.
Oxley said that the sale is conditional upon obtaining the approval (Qualifying Certificate) from the Land Dealings (Approval) Unit on or before the completion date.
The transaction will be funded by bank borrowings and internal resources, with the seller’s stamp duty to be shouldered by the buyer. The purchase price will also include the goods and services tax, if applicable.
Furthermore, the deal is not expected to have any material impact on the group’s earnings per share or net tangible assets per share for the current fiscal year ending 30 June 2018.
