Recent Trend of Sale And Leaseback Deals Involving Listed Companies

As discussed in my earlier articles on Sale &Leaseback or REIT,there are many reasons for such disposal which includes

• cash strap hence getting cheaper &larger funding to provide for working capital

• improving fixed assets utilization;

• realized gain from disposal of fixed assets;

• disposal of non-core fixed assets;

• interest saving as proceeds used to repay hefty debts;

• provides fund for bigger expansion;

• the ability to sell off core assets and at the end of the period still able to retain the assets ( clauses provided in the sale and leaseback arrangement)
