It will now start marketing the Darmstadt Campus and is exploring a multi-let approach to broaden the tenant mix at the property and reduce the reliance on any one single tenant. With the 1-year notice period, there is adequate time to re-let the property to new tenants, as the property is in a prime office location and within a short walking distance to Darmstadt's main railway station.</p>

<p>2H21 Revenue/NPI have recovered to 90%/88% of 2H19’s. Recent resurgence of Covid-19 cases could weigh against rental reversions and demand further rental assistance.

<ul>
<li>Positive surprise with rental rebates reversals and lower expenses. 2H21 revenue and NPI increased 10.5% and 20.2% YoY to S$92.9m and S$69.8m, respectively, mainly due to lower rental assistance and stronger AUD. FY21 revenue and NPI grew 0.3% and 2.0% YoY to S$181.3m and S$134.7m, respectively. S$3.2m of rental rebates reversals from Ngee Ann City and AUS assets were offset by higher rental rebates given to Wisma Atria tenants in 2H21. Overall, rental assistance amounted to c.S$9.6m in FY21 (vs. S$17m in FY20). Combined with adjustment to reflect timing difference of property tax refunds in SG, the absence of S$3.7m one-off capital allowance claim in 2H20, and release of S$4.6m deferred FY20 DI, 2H21 DPU was 195.7% higher at S$2.07c, bringing FY21 DPU 33.4% YoY higher to S$3.95c. The S$7.7m retained FY20 DI has been fully been released with S$0.14c in 1H21 and S$0.21c in 2H21. Excluding the deferred FY20 DI, DPU increased 77.1% and 8.8% YoY in 2H21 and FY21, respectively. FY21 revenue, NPI and DPU exceeded our full-year forecasts by 3.7%, 5.4%, and 12.1%, respectively</li>
<li>Sales has yet to recover to pre-Covid level but occupancies offer silver linings. Pressure at WA (Retail) persists with lower occupancy, lower rent and higher OpEx in 2H21. FY21 rent reversion for Retail came in at -11% vs. Office at -6%. Nonetheless, we take comfort in the resilient portfolio occupancy at 96.7% and committed SG Retail occupancy at 99.3%, supported by new tenant demand. With 15.1% of GRI is due for expiry in FY22E (of which, 11.6% are Retail leases and 3.6% are Office leases), mgmt. expects rent reversion, particularly for Retail’s, to be slight negative, alongside further rental rebates and lease restructuring in view of the renewed movement restrictions in SG and AUS</li>
<li>Reiterate BUY with higher TP of S$0.71/unit, as we roll over our valuations to FY22E. 36.1% gearing level would provide SGREIT financial flexibility in executing its long[1]term strategy to diversify into assets that generate stable cash flows and offers attractive yields. Mgmt. targets to acquire offi ce properties in key gateway cities in SG, AUS and JP, thus bringing revenue mix of Retail vs. Office to 50:50 (currently at 86:14) over the next 3-5 years.
