Dexus's (ASX:DXS) share price is expected to come under material pressure after it may be forced to sell its entire 27.3% stake in Australia Pacific Airports, which owns Melbourne's Tullamarine airport and the Launceston airport in Tasmania, at "fair market value" after a court ruling, Jefferies said in a note on Friday.
Dexus was found to have "committed a material irremediable Breach" against the shareholders' agreement by the New South Wales Supreme Court.
Jefferies estimated Dexus' 27.3% stake in Australia Pacific Airports represents around 10% of external assets under management and accounts for around AU$15 million of annual fee revenues.
The investment firm assigned a hold rating and a price target of AU$6.07 per share to Dexus.
