The latest announcement is out from National Storage REIT ( (AU:NSR) ).

National Storage Finance Pty Ltd has notified holders of its A$300 million guaranteed exchangeable notes that the takeover of National Storage REIT by a Brookfield and GIC-backed consortium has become effective, triggering a Change of Control under the note terms. The change adjusts the exchange price from A$2.8761 to A$2.3870 per stapled security and opens a defined Change of Control Period for investors.

Those acting later, up to a final cut-off on 20 May 2026, may still exercise exchange rights or a Change of Control put option, but settlement may be in cash at the issuer’s discretion, giving investors a time-sensitive decision on how to respond to the buyout.
