Equity Bottom-Up

Bualuang Office Leasehold Real Estate Investment Trust / Equity Bottom-Up

Bualuang Office Leasehold Real Estate Investment Trust

We maintain a BUY recommendation on B-WORK and increase the target price to Bt13.50 from Bt12.50, implying an upside of 35% from the current share price. We derive our target price from a DCF-based valuation using a WACC of 6.9% and a terminal growth rate of 2%.
Investment thesis:
<ul>
<li>Group affiliation assures a high occupancy rate and secured revenue</li>
<li>Almost unaffected by COVID-19, stable outlook</li>
<li>Asset expansion unlocks further upside</li>
<li>Higher dividend yield than peers, expect 7% in 2021-2022E</li>
</ul>
Interim: The 1Q21 results were in line with our expectations. The additional upcoming investment provides further upside.
Risks: Conflict of interest risk due to the largest unitholder and tenant being within the same conglomerate, rising bond yields, falling occupancy rate, and higher-than-expected renovation and overhaul costs.

<li>Almost unaffected by COVID-19, stable outlook</li>
<li>Addition of new assets offer upside to our target price</li>
<li>Pays higher dividend yield than Thai peers, expect 7% in 2021-2022E</li>

B-WORK: Resiliency and Good Dividend Yield Make It Attractive

Investment thesis:
<ul>
<li>Group affiliation assures a high occupancy rate and stable revenue</li>
<li>Impact from COVID-19 should be limited</li>
<li>Addition of new assets offer upside to our target price</li>
<li>Pays higher dividend yield than Thai peers, expect 7% in 2021-2022E</li>
