Subscribe for IPO @ $0.88. Got alloted for 1 account. Some thoughts before applying,
- For Office + Mall REIT, they are positioning themselves (Yield = 5.648% ; Gearing = 39%) between CMT (Yield = 4.889% @ $1.90 ; Gearing = 39.9%) and Suntec (Yield = 6.372% @ $1.52 ; Gearing = 38.4%).
- The Mapletree brand enjoys a premium in the Industrial REITs sector and therefore gives the lowest Yield (after A-REIT) for MLT and MIT.
- They are untested in the Office + Mall REIT sector but it looks like they are assuming they'll enjoy the same premium based on their IPO pricing.
- Thus, if the market price them in the same class as CMT, there may be a 10%+ upside. If they are priced in the same class as Suntec, then 10%+ downside!
- Their main dominant assets is VivoCity.
