Qualitas Real Estate Income Fund (QRI) has successfully completed a $54 million placement.
The real estate investment trust entered a trading halt on March 30 but did not disclose how much it intended to raise or what it would use the funds for.
The funds will be raised through the issue of 33.75 million shares priced at $1.60, representing a slight 0.63 per cent discount to Qualitas’ last closing price of $1.61 on March 29.
Shares are expected to settle on April 13 and begin trading on the ASX on April 14.
Qualitas will use the money to undertake further commercial real estate loan investments that are in line with its strategy.
