Vista REIT IPO – Smallest of the Lot, Sector Has Been Under Pressure

By Clarence Chu

  • Vista REIT (VR PM) is looking to raise about US$158m in its Philippines IPO. This would be a 100% secondary selldown by the Sponsors. 
  • VREIT’s larger assets have seen their occupancies dwindle since FY19. A bulk of its office tenants are up for expiry in FY22 and sector momentum hasn’t been the greatest.
  • VREIT would also hold the smallest portfolio in terms of appraised valuation and would be the smallest REIT, as per mcap.
