Is this a better buy compare to the new ARA US Hospitality Property Trust IPO?

Why suddenly so many H "trust"? Can trust or not?

Will Queen Mary depreciate in value over time?

Sea related trust assets like HPH, FLT, Rickmers are stinging memories to yield chasers.

Eagle Hospitality Trust registers prospectus with MAS; to raise $620 mil from IPO

https://www.theedgesingapore.com/eagle-hospitality-trust-registers-prospectus-mas-raise-620-mil-ipo

SINGAPORE (May 16): The trustee-managers of Eagle Hospitality Trust (EHT) have registered its prospectus with the Monetary Authority of Singapore in connection with the offering of 580.6 million stapled securities at the issue price of US$0.78 per stapled security to raise US$453 million ($620 million) in gross proceeds.

The offering of 580.6 million stapled securities comprises an international placement of 535.7 million stapled securities to investors, including institutional and other investors in Singapore; and an offering of 44.9 million stapled securities to the Singapore public.

Investors subscribing for stapled securities under the public offer will pay the offering price in Singapore dollars of $1.071.

EHT is a US hospitality specialist with an invested sponsor and a portfolio of full service hotels in the US markets. Its initial portfolio comprises 18 primarily freehold hotel properties located in the US, with a total of 5,420 rooms and an aggregate valuation of US$1.27 billion.

All but one of EHT’s hotels are branded by and operated under franchise agreements with the three largest global hotel franchisors – Marriott, Hilton and IHG.

Cornerstone investors including DBS Banks and Gold Pot Developments have entered into subscription agreements to subscribe for an aggregate of 144.9 million stapled securities, representing 16.7% of the total number of stapled securities in issue immediately after the listing.

EHT will distribute 100% of its annual distributable income for the period from the date of listing to the end of 2020, and thereafter, at least 90% of its annual distributable income.

Distributions will be made on a semi-annual basis, for each six-month period ending 30 June and 31 December.

Based on the offering price, this represents an annualised distribution yield of 8.2% for s019 and 8.4% for projection year 2020.

The sponsor of EHT is Urban Commons, LLC, a privately-held real estate investment and development firm that is active across a range of property types with a specific emphasis on hotels.

Urban Commons, founded in 2008 by Howard Wu and Taylor Woods, will hold a 15.2% stake in EHT upon listing.

Not as straight forward as local trust

The risk is completely different. There is economy risk and currency risk. Since it is staple security, the manager has flexibility to meet the yield but scarifying NAV.

For those conservative yield hunters, better let this run for one year and decide later

Now is the worst timing for IPO, just look at ARA US Hospitality already below IPO price. I wouldn't bother with this, probably can pick up at below IPO price after a couple days if you must get it.

PUBLIC OFFER
At the close of the Public Offer at noon on 22 May 2019, excluding applications from connected persons (as defined in the Listing Manual) and persons mentioned in Rule 240 of the Listing Manual, there were a total of 1,528 valid applications for an aggregate of 18,308,100 Stapled Securities out of the 44,871,000 Stapled Securities available to the public for subscription under the Public Offer, resulting in an under-subscription of
26,562,900 Stapled Securities for which no applications were received. The subscription rate for the Public Offer is therefore approximately 0.4 times. The Joint Bookrunners and Underwriters (in consultation with the
Managers) have decided that an aggregate of 1,282,000 of the Stapled Securities not subscribed for in the Public Offer will be re-allocated to satisfy an indication of interest received pursuant to the Placement
Tranche, and the remaining 25,280,900 Stapled Securities not subscribed for in the Public Offer are being underwritten by the Joint Bookrunners and Underwriters pursuant to the terms of the Underwriting Agreement.

Eagle Hospitality Trust IPO's public offer undersubscribed amid market volatility

SINGAPORE - Eagle Hospitality Trust (EHT)'s initial public offering (IPO) saw less than half of its stapled securities subscribed under the public offer, resulting in the joint bookrunners and underwriters having to take up the bulk of the allotment of unsubscribed stapled securities.

A portion of the unsubscribed stapled securities were also re-allocated to the international placement, the stapled group's managers said in an exchange filing on Thursday night (May 23).

The stapled group is expected to start trading on the SGX-ST on a "ready" basis at 2pm on Friday, May 24.

Its IPO comes shortly after that of Singapore-based stapled trust ARA US Hospitality Trust, which is now trading below its IPO price.

ARA US Hospitality Trust priced the IPO of its 38 Hyatt select-service US hotels at 88 US cents per stapled security, and began trading on May 9. It was trading flat at 86.5 US cents as at 11.22am on Friday.

Equity markets have generally suffered of late, with investors gripped by concerns over US-China trade tensions. Singapore shares have hit a four-month low, with the Straits Times Index (STI) slipping 0.27 per cent to 3,152.25 as at 9am following a Wall Street sell-off overnight.

In EHT's IPO, no applications were received for about 60 per cent or 26.6 million stapled securities out of the 44.9 million available to the Singapore public for subscription, at the close of the public offer on May 22. The subscription rate for the public offer is therefore 0.4 times.

About 25.3 million of those unsubscribed stapled securities are thus being underwritten by the joint bookrunners and underwriters.

Meanwhile, some 1.3 million were re-allocated to the international placement to "satisfy an indication of interest received", the managers said. The placement tranche was fully subscribed.

The joint bookrunners and underwriters comprise DBS Bank, Merrill Lynch (Singapore), UBS Singapore Branch, BNP Paribas, Deutsche Bank Singapore Branch, and Jefferies Singapore. DBS Bank was also the sole financial adviser and issue manager for the IPO.

EHT offered a total of 580.6 million stapled securities at US$0.78 apiece for its IPO, comprising an international placement of about 535.7 million stapled securities to investors, including institutional and other investors in Singapore, and the offering of 44.9 million stapled securities to the public in Singapore.

The issue price of US$0.78 per stapled security falls below an earlier indicative range of US$0.80 to US$0.81.

Based on this issue price, projected annualised distribution yield will be 8.2 per cent for the forecast period of May 1, 2019 to Dec 31, 2019, and 8.2 per cent for 2020, according to the managers' filing on Friday morning.

This is up from the 7.9-8 per cent range for forecast period 2019, and 8.1-8.2 per cent range for 2020 spelt out in its preliminary prospectus late last month.

Salvatore Takoushian, chief executive and president of the managers, told The Business Times last week that the lower-than-indicated IPO price of US$0.78 offers "more potential upside".

EHT's first distribution will be for the period from the listing date, May 24, 2019, to Dec 31, 2019, which the managers will pay by March 30, 2020. Subsequent distributions will take place on a semi-annual basis, for each six-month period ended June 30 and Dec 31.

It will distribute its entire annual distributable income for the period from May 24, 2019 to Dec 31, 2020. Thereafter, it will distribute at least 90 per cent of its annual distributable income.

EHT is a hospitality stapled group comprising Eagle Hospitality Real Estate Investment Trust and Eagle Hospitality Business Trust.
