Well, why DPU is in share, no cash???, it must be due to credit crises causes poor earning,got no cash to give out, but to make shareholder happy give out some shares...as the matter is just report by the media and more share , will it not lead to share dilution, same as right issue...am i right?
I expect to see reit in trouble with refinancing...media report more right issue of up to 50% of share coming..showing difficulty in refinancing currently.....am i right? pls comment..thks.
MacArthurCook I Reit has gone up from a recent consolidation low of 0.25 cents to yesterday's closing price of 0.315.
Based on last qtr div payout of 2.35 cents, the stock is trading at a historical yield of 29.9 %.
Most of the reits have shown improvement in share price, and Capitacomm's re-financing of their debt at approx 4 % - 4.4 % has given the mkt the confidence that re-financing should not be a problem for the rest of the other reits.
Having said that, Saizen did disappoint the mkt by going for a rights issue - the most dilutive option for a reit.
I did a stress test on MacArthurCook Reit. If the current interest cost of approx 2.7 % goes up to 7 %, their div will drop to 1.45 cents per qtr, giving an annualised yield of 18.39%, and if the interest cost goes up to 9 %, their div will drop to 1.03 cents per qtr, giving a yield of 13.04 %.
THe assumption above is that all other factors remain the same, same tenancy rentals, etc.
ALso, the company has mentioned that they are in advance negotiation to re-finance their debt (see Q209 corporate announcement in SGX) and that this should be settled in Jan 09. Let us hope that shareholdets are not disappointed, and that the company does not do what Saizen did.
Vested. Not a call to buy/sell.

MacArthur is up 2.5 cents this morning! Now at 27.5 cents!
I guess the market decided that the yield is too attractive .....
Historical yield abt 39%. Even if DPU is cut in 2009 as refinancing costs go up, the yield wld still be fantastic.
Over 30%?
there are various points of view worth considering here: http://www.nextinsight.com.sg/component/option,com_fireboard/Itemid,67/func,view/id,636/catid,3/
Notwithstanding the slowdown in the global economy, barring any unforeseen events or significant deterioration in the external economic environment, the Manager expects to be able to deliver a return that is in line with its recent performance for the balance of the current financial year.
The Manager is currently in negotiations in relation to a new facility to refinance the existing S$220.8 million facility
maturing in April 2009 and to provide funding for the settlement of Plot 4A, International Business Park in December 2009.

If you look at the Q3 results of all the reits, the majority reported increase in dividends. The exceptions were Cambridge Reit (due to payout of trustee mgmt fees being paid 100 % in cash, as compared to previous qtr), as well as FraserComm (formerly Allco Reit), due to their financing cost.
Like I said, one of the risks to reits is their financing cost, the majority of their income should be quite stable in the medium term as most of the tenancies are already locked in. In fact, some of the reits in the office space, like Suntec will still experience POSITIVE rental reversion, ie their rentals will go up, as the old rentals were at a very low rate (aprox $5 psf), whereas, right now, even with a 30 % drop in office space, the new rental rate will still be HOGHER than $5.00 psf.
In calculating the 29 % yield of MacArthurcook I reit, I am using a dividend rate of 1.7 per qtr, which is ALREADY down from the Q3 rate of 2.35 cents, ie I am assuming a 38 % drop in dividend !
At current price of 0.23 cents, the stock has drop from its IPO price of 1.20 - a 80 % drop in price !
Assuming that the projected rate of 1.7 cents is wrong, lets take it down to half of that, ie 0.85 cents per qtr. The yield would still be approx 15 % !
The RISK to this stock would be their inability to re-finance their loan (And that is why Cambridge's refinancing gives me optimism).
And yes, I did bought some on Friday at 0.23 cents. (My average cost is probably 0.245 cents).
In the current bear mkt, yes do be careful - anything can happen - So please do your own homework carefully.
Not a call to buy/sell.
whatever anxiety & caution we experience, it seems that insiders have no problem accumulating.

I think this dividend yield by analyst are misleading,,they are base on current share px which have been sold down in the current market with the latest dividend given out.
I do suggest caution if you really want to buy into reit and trust...pls do careful analysis..next year going to be bad for sure..
Of course, if you REALLY bought at 0.23c, but for other the yield will be lower as they bought at higher share px..
And the dividend will drop by 0.9c from the coming dividend which will be much lower than current one for sure., not from the previous latest distribution. Dont count your gain before result is out...and for ,many reit ..the result is going to be horriffic...celebrate only after money is in your pocket..forcasting too early before the reporting is misleading..
Just ask yourself honestly...will the result be good at current condition???vested in hyfluxwt,Parkway, and first reit...personnally don't expect them to be good, but am focus on long term...will not hestitate to cut on fundamental changes..if the result is very bad.

Kim Eng is indeed too optimistic - They are not taking into account the rise in financing cost.
However, it was a pleasant surprice when Cambridge Reit indicated that their dividend will drop by
ONLY 0.9 cents, after refinancing.
WHo knows - MaCarthurCook I Reit might give us a similar surprise.
Having said that, my own estimate is that their dividends will drop to 1.7 cents per qtr or 6.8 cents per
annum. Hey - I am happy with that 6. 8 cents, at closing price of 0.23 - that is a 29 % dividend yield !.
Not a call to buy/sell. Vested.
it's down marginally from 9.3 cts to 9.1 cts!
That's a yield of 40%

One of the advantages in investing in property reits is the 'certainty' of earnings and hence dividend yields. MacathurCook I Reit has 64 % of tenants who are listed companies or subsidiaries of listed companies, and their average lease expiry is 5.1 yrs.
On top of that, they hold between 3 mths to 2 yrs worth of security deposits from their tenants, and most of the tenants will pay a built-in escalation in their rentals.
They have 18 properties, and this provides for some diversification, in the event of early termination by tenants. Even in the worst case scenario of their dividend being cut by half, the reit will still give a dividend yield of approx 15 % (base on closing price of 0.23 and the already projected reduced dividend payout of 1.7 cents per qtr)
Again, the risk to this stock is the re-financing part, and the cost of funds - If theses 2 problems are resolved, a lot of uncertainty will be removed. NOt a call to buy/sell, Investors are advised to do their own homework.
