Under the terms of the acquisition, Hibernia Reit shareholders received €1.634 in cash for each Hibernia Reit share. This would be made up of €1.60 per share and a dividend of 3.4 cent per share.
The company also confirmed the resignation of directors Róisín Brennan, Margaret Fleming, Stewart Harrington, Gráinne Hollywood, Fergal O’Dwyer, Conall O’Halloran and Terence O’Rourke, and the appointment of Andrew O’Shea as a director of the company in their place.
Brookfield is one of the world’s largest owners and operators of property, with more than $250 billion (€227 billion) of property assets globally, and an office portfolio of about 200 million sq ft worldwide.
The acquisition, including the dividend, values the entire issued and to-be-issued share capital of Hibernia Reit at about €1.089 billion on a fully diluted basis. It was valued at about €781 million in the market.
