New REIT Unlikely to Be Near-Term Catalyst for CapitaLand China Trust -- Market Talk

Dow Jones09-30

0212 GMT - CapitaLand China Trust isn't likely to get a near-term catalyst from the Shanghai listing of CapitaLand Commercial C-REIT, says OCBC Investment Research's Ada Lim says in a note. While the new REIT could serve as a potential long-term platform for CapitaLand China Trust to divest its mature assets, the Shanghai trust can only acquire more assets a year after its IPO on Sept. 29, she adds. The analyst cuts her 2026 distribution-per-unit forecast by 3% to reflect CapitaLand China Trust's participation in the new REIT and its sale of a Changsha mall to CapitaLand Commercial C-REIT. She sees protracted DPU softness given weak consumer and business sentiment in China. OCBC raises its fair value estimate to S$0.705 from S$0.70, but reiterates a hold rating. CapitaLand China Trust is steady at S$0.785. (megan.cheah@wsj.com)
