Keppel REIT's Additional Interest in Singapore Office Tower Looks Negative -- Market Talk

Dow Jones01-02

0555 GMT - Keppel REIT's acquisition of an additional one-third interest in Marina Bay Financial Centre Tower 3 in Singapore looks negative, RHB Research's Vijay Natarajan says in a research report. The analyst cites significant dilutive equity fund-raising and tight pricing. The acquisition will be partly funded by issuance of preferential offering of 23 new units for every 100 existing units at S$0.96 per new unit, the analyst notes. As the new units are issued at roughly 23% below book value, the transaction will dilute net asset value by estimated 5%. RHB cuts its 2026 and 2027 distribution-per-unit forecasts for the REIT by 8% and 9%, respectively. It lowers the unit's target price to S$0.98 from S$1.05 with an unchanged neutral rating. Units were recently at S$0.97. (ronnie.harui@wsj.com)
