Suntec REIT – Resilient Singapore assets and improving overseas outlook

 

 

  • Gross revenue for 1H24 is in line with expectations, inching up by 1.2% to S$226.9mn due to the strong performance of Singapore assets (Retail rental reversion: +20.8%, Office: +9.7%) while overseas assets faced pressure (Australia revenue: -6.4%, UK: -16.1%).
     
     
  • NPI increased by 1.5% to S$151mn, forming 48% of our FY24e estimates. DPU plummeted by 12.5% in the absence of the 0.398 cents capital top-up, with 1H24 DPU standing at 3.042 cents, which is 49% of our full-year forecast.
     
     
  • SUN continues to demonstrate the capability of monetizing its assets as it divested S$31.5mn of strata units at 27% above book value and has put another 12.3k sqft for sale at c.S$41.8mn. With the strengthened cash position and the possible uplift on MAS’s regulation (ICR lowered from 2.5x to 1.5x), SUN would soon improve its balance sheet, which has been one of the main drags on its share performance. We reiterate our BUY recommendation with an unchanged DDM-TP of S$1.41 and FY24e-25e DPU of 6.2 to 7.5 cents.
