Ingenia to Buy Peet in ~$1B Deal to Expand Land Bank to 7,000 Lots
Housing provider Ingenia Communities will buy ASX-listed land developer Peet in a deal worth just under $1 billion, paying $2.12 a share in cash and scrip. The acquisition values Peet at about $993 million and would expand Ingenia’s land bank by up to 7,000 lots to supply new housing, despite Ingenia warning that a slowing market has reduced inquiries.
