Sasseur REIT's CFO 'interviewed' by MAS and CAD for probe unrelated to REIT​


https://www.theedgesingapore.com/ne...-interviewed-mas-and-cad-probe-unrelated-reit
Xie Jianfeng, CFO of the manager of Sasseur REIT, has been interviewed by authorities as part of an investigation under the Securities and Futures Act.

According to Sasseur REIT, Xie was interviewed by the Monetary Authority of Singapore and the Commercial Affairs Department on Dec 5, "as he appeared to be acquainted with the circumstances of a case being investigated."

According to Sasseur REIT, citing Xie, the probe relates to Xie's personal trading of securities which had occurred before he became an employee of the REIT's manager.

Xie was appointed to his current role on Dec 1 2021. Between May 2018 and Nov 21, he was the general manager of the finance department of the Sasseur Group, sponsor of the REIT.

According to Sasseur REIT's manager, its nominating and remuneration committee is of the view that the investigation has just commenced and no charges have been brought against Xie, who has surrendered his passport to the authorities.

"His roles and responsibilities in the Manager should continue as normal. The board has accepted the recommendation of the nominating and remuneration committee and is of the view that Mr Xie would be able to and shall continue to discharge his responsibilities and duties as CFO to ensure business continuity," the REIT's manager adds.

"The board wishes to highlight that the manager and Sasseur REIT are not under investigation. The operations of Sasseur REIT and the Manager will not be affected by the abovementioned investigation and continues as normal," the REIT's manager says.

Sasseur REIT reports 1QFY2023 DPU of 1.849 cents, 1.5% higher y-o-y

Sasseur REIT CRPU 4.17%
has reported a distribution per unit (DPU) of 1.849 cents for the 1QFY2023 ended March 31, 1.5% higher y-o-y.
The DPU, which doesn’t include the REIT’s retained income of $0.9 million, is the highest DPU for the first quarter since its listing. The REIT retained about 3.8% of its distributable income for working capital purposes.

In RMB terms, the REIT’s entrusted manager agreement (EMA) rental income rose by 7.7% y-o-y to RMB170.6 million ($32.7 million) though EMA rental income in Singapore dollars (SGD) fell by 2.1% y-o-y to $33.1 million as the RMB fell against the SGD.

Under EMA rental income, fixed component income was up by 3% y-o-y to RMB111.9 million while variable component rose by 17.9% y-o-y to RMB58.7 million.

Total outlet sales rose by 17.9% y-o-y to RMB1.29 billion.

Distributable income fell by 4.0% y-o-y to $23.7 million.

As at March 31, the REIT’s portfolio occupancy rose by 1.2 percentage points y-o-y but fell by 0.6 percentage points q-o-q to 96.6%. Its weighted average lease expiry (WALE) stood at 2.1 years by net lettable area (NLA).

The REIT’s aggregate leverage stood at 25.7%, down by 1.9 percentage points q-o-q, and is the lowest among the Singapore REITs (S-REITs). Sasseur REIT’s interest coverage ratio stood at 4.1x as at March 31, compared to 4.4x the quarter before. Based on the REIT’s sensitivity analysis, every 50 basis point (bps) shift in interest rates translates to a 0.04 cent change in its DPU per annum (p.a.).

Net asset value (NAV) per unit stood stable q-o-q at 87 cents as at March 31.

In its release, the REIT is positive about the growing outlet industry in China with macro trends supporting the industry’s long-term growth within the country. Despite the pandemic restrictions, the REIT pointed out that it opened 26 new outlets in FY2022 spanning 2.94 million sqm, which is the highest in 10 years.

After the pandemic, the REIT notes that consumers now prefer high-quality products at a lower cost which bodes well for the industry.

It adds that there is a good growth trajectory for outlets with fewer than 300 in China compared to over 5,600 shopping malls within the country.

In FY2023, the REIT says it intends to focus on managing its assets proactively which includes adjusting its trade mix to capitalise on new consumer trends. Other initiatives during the year includes maintaining its robust balance sheet and aggregate leverage level, as well as acquisitions in some of its target cities in China. It adds that it will be prioritising acquisitions for its Xi’an and Guiyang outlets, where it was granted the right of first refusal (ROFR) by its sponsor.

Sasseur REIT’s DPU will be paid out on June 27.

Units in Sasseur closed 1.5 cents lower or 2.04% down at 72 cents on May 9.

My previous few months REIT buying is starting to pay off. This REIT although got China assets in it I put a gamble. Gearing ratio keep going lower and now trading way below NAV of 0.83 Now wait for Dec 2023 dividend. In contrast that bigger player CapLand China really no eye see sia.

I have a very small exposure but so far I am quite pleased with the performance. I actually do think outlet malls will do better than mid/up-market retail malls given the economic situation in China.

This reit has one of the lowest gearing ratio but becuz it invest in the magic word China so a lot of potential buyers are spooked dare not buy which is understandable.

If it dare happend to sass
Price of it will plummet:


More S-Reits could be at risk of suspending distributions

As at the latest financial results for the financial period ended Dec 2023, six of the 40 S-Reits and property trusts have partly or fully halted distributions to unitholders, amid worsening balance sheet metrics.
