MARKET PULSE: CityDev, Cache Logistics, Singapore Economy
2 Jan 2013
KEY IDEA
City Developments Limited: Echelon launch performance above view
We visited City Development’s (CDL) latest launch, the 508-unit condominium project Echelon, over the weekend. The project near the Redhill MRT
station put up a strong set of numbers in its first weekend of sales, with over 300 units sold at ASP of around S$1.7k psf. We believe this launch
performance to be above view. We estimate breakeven ASP at $1.2k psf, which translates to an attractive gross profit margin around 40% for the
project. To recap, CDL together with Hong Realty, put in the top bid (S$396m or S$754 psf GFA) for the 99-year GLS site at Alexandra Rd in Nov 2011.
Maintain BUYwith a higher fair value estimate of S$14.05 (10% RNAV discount), versus S$13.96 previously, as we update for firmer residential ASPs
into our model.(Eli Lee)
MORE REPORTS
Cache Logistics Trust: FY12 to end on positive note
Cache Logistics Trust (CACHE) announced that it will release its 4Q12 results after the market close on 21 Jan 2013. We expect CACHE to meet our 4Q
NPI forecast of S$18.5m (+11.1% YoY) and distributable income projection of S$14.7m (+9.5%) comfortably, thanks to the contribution from its
newly-acquired Pan Asia Logistics Centre and Pandan Logistics Hub. In the coming year, we believe CACHE’s financial performance will remain sturdy,
as it continues to benefit from upward rental adjustments and full-year contribution from its past acquisitions. A few industrial properties from
its sponsor’s pipeline assets are also ready for acquisition and may boost its income if CACHE injects any of these properties into its portfolio.
We also continue to favour CACHE for its resilient portfolio. While the Singapore Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) indicated that the manufacturing
sector contracted for the fifth month in Nov, we expect CACHE’s portfolio occupancy to maintain at 100% as the bulk of its leases are based on
triple-net master lease structures. Maintain BUY and S$1.30 fair value on CACHE. (Kevin Tan)
Singapore Economy: 1.2% growth in 2012 lower than forecast
According to advance estimates from the MTI, the Singapore economy grew by 1.1% YoY in 4Q12, worse than the street’s expectations of a 1.4% growth
but better than the zero growth seen in 3Q12. On a seasonally-adjusted annualized basis, the economy expanded by 1.8% QoQ, compared to the 6.3%
contraction in 3Q12. Manufacturing contracted by 10.8% QoQ, extending the 9.9% decline in 3Q12, largely due to continued weakness in the electronics
cluster. Construction also contracted by 8.9% from 3Q12’s 17.4% negative growth with lower private sector building activity. Services, however, grew
by 7.0% QoQ, reversing the 3.9% fall in 3Q12. This was mainly due to a rebound in the wholesale & retail trade, finance and insurance sectors. All
these factors brought 2012 growth to 1.2%, lower than MTI’s growth forecast of 1.5%. For 2013, the official growth forecast is 1.0-3.0%, but key
risks include the fiscal cutback in the US and the Eurozone debt crisis. (Low Pei Han)
