DBS initiated coverage pre-result with target of 86 cents. 

Results out after market.   Dividend maintained 1.57 cents. Stable and been sustainable for quite some time. Only Reit I know truly tapped on E-Commerce play in which China is huge. Cautiously excited about the long term potential of ECW. Seemed very undervalued and not well understood. Good more and more analysts are starting to take notice. 

Remarks : Vested and sharing. Pls DYODD before any buy or sell action.

UBS buying and investing into ECWR is a decision by UBS, and can be respected,... but UBS ' HELPING' HNW clients to buy is a totally different story !

cmengchan      ( Date: 10-Nov-2018 13:47) Posted:

The latest filing said the interest in EC was 1-Feb-2018. So the share ownership was already there more than 9 months ago. I think it's part of some Funds that had total ownership that add up to more than 5%. So I think by law, they need to declare it.

Personally, I think it could be some high yield offshore funds that UBS sells to private clients.

chengwh1      ( Date: 10-Nov-2018 12:21) Posted:

I wanted to ask on the latest filing by EC World REIT abt  UBS SUDDENLY acquiring a huge stake in ECWR and got catapulted to being a substantial shareholder now. The gist of the ann' t is s below :-
UBS disclosed that they have  bought a substantial stake in ECWR after the 3Q reporting. Their descriptions in the SGX Filing under ' Other' :-
The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch provides custodial services as a bare trustee under a Custody Agreement and has a security interest over the Units as trustee under a Trust Deed. The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation is treated as having an interest in the Units by virtue of it being the 100% shareholder of The Bank of New York Mellon. The percentage of unit-holding set out above is calculated on the basis of 784,657,527 outstanding Units at the time of the transaction (1 February 2018)

Did UBS buy this ' personally' or is it their private clients who  bought this with UBS as a custodian ? There is  lot of difference here.

Does it mean that we should have more confidence with ECWR  now since UBS ' bought' so  many units  of this ctr  ??????

Is this 43% DPU drop referring to LMIRT REIT? EC REIT did not have such drastic result.

chengwh1      ( Date: 10-Nov-2018 07:52) Posted:

DPU dropped 43% in 3Q repoting,down to only 0.49c. I guessed the good performance in 2Q earlier was not long-lived.

Remarks : Vested. Pls DYODD.

Excerpts from  SooChow CSSD Capital Markets report  Analyst:  Tan Cheng Wee, CAIA.  8th Auust 2018.

EC World REIT (ECW) reported its 2Q18 results within expectations. 2Q18 revenue +7.6% YoY and NPI +8.2% YoY, driven by contribution from maiden acquisition Wuhan Meiluote.
There is potential for ECW to bridge the gap with its positioning by increasing e-commerce asset exposure from
i) ROFR assets under Sponsor (Fuzhou e-commerce asset is acquisition ready)
ii) YCH partnership
iii) 3rd party acquisitions.
Maintain BUY with TP $0.88/unit.


  2Q18 results within expectations: 2Q18 gross revenue +7.6% YoY to S$24.9m, NPI +8.2% YoY to S$22.8m, mainly driven by contributions from ECW&rsquo s first acquisition Wuhan Meiluote. Distribution income of S$12.4m (99.3% payout) +3.1% YoY DPU of S$1.57c +1.9% YoY +6.9% QoQ as 1Q18 results incurred withholding tax expenses from cash repatriation. Portfolio occupancy is firm at 96.7% (committed occupancy: 99.2%) as of 2Q18. Gearing stands at 29.5%, leaving ample debt headroom for acquisitions.

Wuhan Meiluote occupancy upside materialized: While we believe there may have been market concerns on tight acquisition yield of Wuhan Meiluote at 4.9%, we have previously highlighted upside to the asset post stabilization. Existing tenant JD.com expanded within by taking up c.2,900 sqm more space, bringing occupancy up to 88.2% from 82.2% at acquisition and illustrating strong tenant covenants.

Reiterate potential of visible acquisition roadmap: We maintain that ECW possess the potential of bridging the gap to its e-commerce REIT positioning with a visible acquisition roadmap. In the near term, Fu Zhou e-commerce ROFR asset has commenced operations and primed for acquisition in the longer term, partnership with YCH could bring potential pipeline assets for acquisition consideration.

Maintain BUY: We maintain BUY rating and a TP of S$0.88/unit on ECW, in view of yield compression potential as investors gradually digest the inorganic growth trajectory and rising exposure to logistics e-commerce sector. ECW REIT offers attractive FY19E yield of 9.14% and currently trades at undemanding 0.79x P/B.

Remarks : Sharing.  Pls DYODD.

The reply by the board/chairman to the question by SIAS and during the agm of the resignation of the the 1st CEO Mr Lai Hock Meng was due to medical reasons. This did not match the reason given in the SGX ann on  21 Apr 2017. The reason given than was " to pursue personal and other bussiness interest " Is the board hidding something from the minority shareholders?

Starship      ( Date: 21-Apr-2018 15:03) Posted:


The Hidden Gem of this company is so well hidden that many CEOs gave up searching after failing to find it.....................


SIAS Question 1
On 23 March 2018, the REIT announced the appointment of Mr. Goh Toh Sim as Chief Executive Officer (&ldquo CEO&rdquo ) of EC World Asset Management Pte. Ltd., the manager of the REIT. Mr. Goh was appointed the Acting CEO on 14 February 2018 following the resignation of Mr. Alvin Cheng Yu-Dong.

The former CEOs of the REIT managers did not stay on the job for long. Mr. Alvin Cheng Yu-Dong was appointed on 4 May 2017 and resigned on 9 Feb 2018 " to pursue other professional interests.&rdquo

Mr. Lai Hock Meng held the position from 1 Oct 2015 to 22 April 2017 and left to " pursue personal and other business interests&rdquo .

(i) Can the board help shareholders understand if there were extenuating circumstances that led to the frequent changes of the CEO of the manager?
(ii) What is the search process for senior management, especially the CEO?
(iii) How does the manager ensure that it can attract a CEO who is highly capable, has experience of the markets/sectors and has his interests aligned so as to create long term value for the REIT and its unitholders?
