Singapore-listed palm oil firm First Resources’ (FRLD.SI) main shareholder plans to raise as much as $139.5 million through a share placement, according to a term sheet seen by Reuters.
Eight Capital, which owns 74% of First Resources, is selling 90 million secondary and treasury shares at $1.48 to $1.55 each, which represents a discount of 3.7 to 8.1% to its closing price of $1.61 on Wednesday.
Eight Capital’s stake in First Resources will fall to 68.2% after the planned sale.
Citigroup is the sole bookrunner for the placement.
