0320 GMT - Lendlease Global Commercial REIT's rental reversions could remain positive given buoyant tenant sales and limited new supply of retail space, UOB Kay Hian analyst Jonathan Koh says in a research note as he maintains a buy rating. The analyst adds that the REIT's tenant sales were 15%-20% above prepandemic levels in 4Q, noting that its 313@Somerset mall benefits from employees returning to offices and tourists returning to shops. However, the brokerage trims distribution-per-unit forecasts for the REIT by 4% for FY 2024 and 7% for FY 2025 to reflect a new sustainability-linked euro loan and lowers the target price to S$0.830 from S$0.890. Units are 0.9% lower at S$0.540. (ronnie.harui@wsj.com)
