Re the current offer for 20m new units. I wonder if we will have to jump through as many hoops to subscribe to these and then at the price which is only a couple of cents discount at this stage. My recent experience with the GMT issue has me hesitating, but then I have not received the paper work yet.

I would think that the same procedure as the GMT issue would apply - it seems to be necessary to comply with the restrictions on overseas ownership of land and property.

Its frequently been extremely difficult to get a car park whereas before this transformation the place was looking a little sad and under patronised. On a side note, Lynnmall was N.Z.'s first shopping mall and I remember starting my career in 1980 just over the road at an accounting firm and I would wander over the road and do my shopping when it was nothing much more than an open strip of shops with a walkway down the middle.
I'm pretty sure malls will keep morphing as they have always done in the past on as required basis to stay relevant.
To answer the Op's question, the revaluation is the result of valuers using lower capex rates in their valuation model's consistent with interest rates and capitalisation rates at 60 year lows so yes the revaluation is fair in this ultra low interest rate environment. Amazing that you can borrow money fixed for 2 year's at only 3.99%. Never seen that before in my career.
Property values (thus cap rates) and interest rates are the opposite ends of a see-saw. That is why the best time to buy real estate, particularly housing, is when interest rates are high.

Good insight fungus. The question is will we consider today's interest rate high in 1, 2 or 5 years time?

New development is forever forging new rent levels.

What's the group's opinion on this last paragraph of the offer .....
Further details about the Retail Offer are included in the Offer Document, which can be viewed here. While participation in the Retail Offer is optional,if you choose not to acquire additional shares via the Retail Offer your shareholding will be diluted.On behalf of the Board, I would like to thank you for your continued support.

I hold some on behalf of my Mum and won't be participating in this capital raise. To me it makes no sense subscribing for new shares at $1.58 when the last recorded NTA is $1.43 per share.
I can see why GMT and KPG are rushing to this new issuance when their shares are trading a such a premium to NTA, its a great deal for the company.
Yes, strictly speaking your percentage of the company will be very slightly diluted but the value of your shares will increase because other people are subscribing for new shares at a material premium to NTA. What they're saying is technically correct but nevertheless slightly disingenuous.
GMT issued shares at quite a substai8ntial premium to NTA because the industrial property sector is being perceived at present as very safe. This issue is not at quite such a premium but nevertheless is not a compelling offer by any means.
