PRIME US REIT: Is this an opportunity?

At this point of writing, PRIME is trading at US$0.30. Its yield is now almost 20%, at US$0.06 ( base on FY2022). Trading a 0.44x book value, NTA is US$0.75. Let take a look at a few metrices. 1) Weighted Average Lease Expiry (WALE) is 4.1 years, which provides sufficient time to cushion any volatility in the stock market. 2) Weighted Average Debt Maturity is 2 years. This may raise some concerns here. Out of the US$449 million debt maturity in 2024, US$160 million can be extended to July 2026 ( 2 years extension ), bringing Weighted Average Debt Maturity to 2.7 years. Personally, I am not sure if this provide sufficient buffer time for PRIME to obtain new loan facilities. 3) Average leverage is 42%. This figure is still below the requirements of 50%. Summary: All investments come with RISK, some is higher while some is lower. At a yield of close to 20%, and trading at 0.44x book value, i think the risk is justified.

As years go by, i am sure the recurring revenue will keep increasing. 3) With robotic machinery, the product can automated and increase efficiency in kitchens. This may be a stepping stone for SKE to widen its client base. 4) Profit has grown from $0.11 million upon listing to $2.57 million in FY2016. Its ROA and ROE is 11.75% and 17% respectively.

mDR: Entering the new era.

Adapt from the Questions and Answers for AGM 2020. Changing its investment portfolio to a 100% allocation to equities within a year. 1) As at end 2019, our investment portfolio allocation was 66% to equity and 34% to fixed income. During the recent market correction, mDR took advantage of price volatility and was active in swapping bond exposure for equity exposure. The asset allocation as of May-end 2020 was 80% equity and 20% fixed income. mDR will continue to unlock liquidity from its bond portfolio to increase the equity exposure as the recession runs its course and we expect to have 100% allocation to equities within a year.
