Viva Industrial Trust

Indeed. One of the best performing local REITs, 2nd highest yield just behind Soilbuild. 

Took a breather over August but now back to 935 high. Slow and steady is much better than fast and furious.

Still looking forward to re-valuation of VBP to bring down the stock' s slightly rich valuation.

totally agreed. Although price has moved significantly after the Jackson square resolution and rental ' protection' , coupled wiht the VBP, a new concept compared to standard shopping mall, I believe VBP mall will attract good foot traffic and therefore allow Viva to increase mall rental rate revision. The fact that price holds fairly steady and up 1 cents one day after ex Div shows it is still in demand. Vested and looking forward to next qtr DPU.

Another smashing quarter, now hovering at 93/935. Looks good for FY2017.

 

I actually pass it via MRT on the way home from work. VBP seems quite busy, especially Decathlon. Saw the new Harvey Norman outlet sign on one of the blocks too.

Unaudited 2Q results releasing on Monday morning before market opens (start of trading week, very positive indicator of good results). Hope to see good numbers as always! Viva has been doing very well for its shareholders, hope they continue to seek prudent growth and manage credit risks.

We are positive on the rejuvenation of VBP (white space) and expect a positive spill-over effect on its business park component.

Maybank Kim Eng SGX Stock Analyst Report BUY Maintain BUY 0.95

VIVA INDUSTRIAL TRUST T8B.SI
Viva Industrial Trust (VIT SP) - Sound Resolution
 
Swift settlement, BUY 

• Viva has swiftly resolved its Jackson Square (JS) issue to settle for compensation, and remains entitled to a rental support bank guarantee as well as additional security deposits, with the termination of its facilities management agreement with Jackson International Pte Ltd (JIPL). This outcome is positive and should alleviate earlier concerns on near-term vacancy risks at JS arising from the JIPL subsidiary tenants.
• We raise FY18 DPU estimates by 5% and our DDM-based TP to SGD0.95.
• With 27% total return upside, we reiterate BUY.

Update on Jackson Square 

• Viva reported that it has reached a full and final settlement with Jackson International Pte Ltd (JPIL), resulting in the termination of its facilities management agreement at the Jackson Square (JS) property, which was acquired in Nov 2014. 
• Viva in turn receives SGD1m from JPIL and remains at liberty to call upon the SGD3.87m rental support bank guarantee in the absence of the rental support at JS. 
• In addition, JPIL and its subsidiaries will now provide SGD1.73m in security deposits (equivalent to 12 months rental) to maintain their leases at JS.

Positive outcome, vacancy-risk concerns alleviated 

• The development is positive for Viva, given a swift resolution to the issue at JS which had originated from a liquidation notice received by JPIL a month earlier (on 23 Apr). 
• Importantly it should dispel concerns on near-term vacancy risks arising from the possible exit of JPIL subsidiary tenants, at 24% of the NLA (19% of gross rental income). 
• Management further shared that leasing activities to back-fill the remaining vacancies at JS due to McDermott are progressing well.

Raised DPU, new TP at SGD0.95 

• We adjusted our model assumptions to factor in higher occupancies at JS in FY18E, and raised earnings by 5%. 
• We see upside risks from our rental estimates on its two business park assets. For now, our DDM-based TP rises to SGD0.95, implying 27% total return upside. 
• Maintain BUY.

Swing Factors
 
Upside

• Earlier-than-expected pick-up in leasing demand driving improvement in occupancy.
• Better-than-anticipated rental reversion trend.
• Accretive acquisitions.

Downside

• Prolonged slowdown in economic activity could reduce demand for industrial space, resulting in lower occupancy and rental rates.
• Termination of long-term leases contributing to weaker portfolio tenant retention rate.
• Expiry of rental support mechanisms without corresponding rental reversion uplift from Nov 2018.
• Sharper-than-expected rise in interest rates could increase cost of debt and negatively impact earnings, with higher cost of capital lowering valuations.

 

 

Indeed price has been on a very nice steady climb over the past few months.

Hope management continues to work hard to maintain/improve distributions and also find a new tenant for JS although loss of revenue does not impact earnings significantly.

Also Viva has notable concentration risk in its business parks. They account for more than half total portfolio valuation and > 60% of revenue. However, given low supply of business park space in Singapore in 2017 and 2018 and completion of AEI at VBP, hope to see continued high occupancy and rising rental revenue from them.

Viva is no longer cheap at about 1.09 P/B, but no issue to continue holding given the generous dividends. Key risks are Jackson Square and $100m in notes coming due in 2018.

Another all time high...86.5 divi swee price also swee

 

Another very good set of results this quarter:

YOY Gross revenue up 24.9%, net property income up 28.8%, distributable income up 25.9%, quarterly DPS up 13.2%.

Now hope management is working hard settling legal issue with Jackson (if any) and finding a new tenant for Jackson Square!

Nice.

has slowly crept up to 81 cents to reach a new 52 w high. Maybank' s target of 95 cents seems like a tall order. any other analysts covering this REIT?
