SHENZHEN, China--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Nam Tai Property Inc. (OTC Expert Market: NTPIF) (鈥淣am Tai Property鈥� or the 鈥淐ompany鈥�) today announced that the Company closed a mortgage loan (the 鈥淟oan鈥�) with Shenzhen Rural Commercial Bank (鈥淪RCB鈥�). The Loan totals RMB 110.0 million and matures in eight years. The blended all-in rate is approximately 4.4% per year (based on the Loan Prime Rate published by the Central Bank of the People鈥檚 Republic of China). The Loan is collateralized with the Company鈥檚 Inno Valley property, a 22-year-old, un-redeveloped industrial factory park located in Bao鈥檃n District, Shenzhen.
Bo Hu, Chief Executive Officer and board member, commented:
鈥淭oday鈥檚 announcement is a significant milestone for the Company after obtaining full control of the Company鈥檚 on-shore assets. Most notably, the Loan is made possible after the Company successfully upgraded its credit rating back to the highest status in China鈥檚 five-tier banking credit system. In addition, the underlying collateral, Inno Valley, has a 鈥榞reen property ownership certificate,鈥� the financing of which is usually more challenging and requires a high degree of confidence from the banking system. This transaction, with its competitively favorable cost of debt, reflects that the Company has now regained access to commercial banking financing in China. The board and leadership team will continue to focus on optimizing the Company鈥檚 capital stack and rebuilding strong relationships with various lenders.鈥�
Michael Cricenti, non-executive Chairman, added:
鈥淏o and our excellent team in China have been working with great urgency and speed to seize Nam Tai鈥檚 many opportunities, including this financing with SRCB. Their focus on fostering strong relationships with local communities and partners, like SRCB, will be key to building lasting momentum. We look forward to providing new updates on other strategic initiatives in the coming weeks and months. Now that the reconstituted leadership team has full control of Nam Tai鈥檚 on-shore assets, we are able to focus on maintaining strong communication with all shareholders and stakeholders.鈥�
