10 Years of Investing Result

Times really fly fast now we are going for year 2018 and I wish everyone the best luck in 2018 in your career, investing and life :)

I has been investing more than 10 years as a noob and start to track my return 10 years ago and i don't really track my real capital then.

There has been years where I am totally sleeping not bothering the stock investment and only in year 2014 I start more paying attention and dig deeper into stock.

For year 2017,
I have achieved the target profit of $26000 that I set last  years here (I don't differentiate trading and dividend income, just lump into one since profit is profit).

I have made few mistakes like RHT Trust where I added a few lots for quick return due to news and now I am sitting at lost for now. I sold KeppelDC Reit for quick profit and intend to buy back on lower price and the boats never come back.

All thanks for my adrenaline T.T and due to RHT case, I start to keep my financial diaries mistakes to remind me - I hope it will be useful for me.

There is nothing much change in term of the capital I invested as I sold some REIT and switch to another REIT

I am setting aside and start to increase my war-chest in the case Great Sale is coming as the market has been getting higher and higher.

For year 2018, 
My target will be $28000, I am not sure if i will achieve this as my current portfolio does not yield that amount in term of dividend and it will be pretty much on the market if I will have opportunity to add more in order to achieved it.

With the market is getting higher, I am in doubt I will achieve the target but we shall see in 1 year to come.

Even we set long term goal, how much we can achieve is also depend on the market and if we can see any opportunity in-front of us. I shouldn't buy stock just for the purpose to achieve my target. The stock should meet my criteria, otherwise I would rather fail to achieve my target rather than lose money.

For my brick and mortar investment, I have set sufficient enough money to pay the loan and I will be on the comfortable side to pay off the remaining loan.


The chart below show the profit I have for the last 10 years
My current portfolio as end of 2017

CPF Retirement Sum Topping-Up Scheme - Thing I need to be aware

The Tax Relief  Leveraging on CPF (As per 19 Dec 2017)

Year end is coming and hence I am looking how to reduce my tax. I have been searching ways how to reduce my tax and dig further about CPF Retirement Sum Top Up Scheme which I found below and I am not aware before.

Key Note is CPF Retirement Sum Top Up is not a guarantee for Tax Relief as there is a few conditions specified
1. You must not hit the FRS.
2. If you top up your loved one, he or she should not have income exceeding $4000
3. You must not hit $80,000 personal income tax relief.

So for those who use the scheme as a mean for income tax relief please take note else, encourage you to top up for your retirement :)

Another side of thought is if we transfer our OA to SA, this is a good thing to earn more Interest but indirectly we will also increase our SA to reach the FRS faster.

I guess all boiled down to our objectives.

Quoted from CPF Website , link here 

Top Up For My Self

only cash top-ups within the following caps will be eligible for tax relief:
Recipient below age 55 Current FRS less the sum of Special Account (SA) savings and net SA savings withdrawn under CPF Investment Scheme for investments that have not been completely disposed of.
Recipient age 55 and above Current FRS^ less Retirement Account (RA) savings


The cap is based on current FRS, rather than the Enhanced Retirement Sum (ERS), to keep tax benefits focused on supporting basic retirement needs. Cash top-ups beyond the above caps will not be eligible for tax relief.

Personal income tax relief cap of $80,000, which will apply from Year of Assessment 2018. This cap applies to the total amount of all tax reliefs claimed, including any relief on cash top-ups made under the Retirement Sum Topping-Up Scheme, made on or after 1 Jan 2017.
  • Which mean if I already hit the personal income tax relief, I will not be entitled for tax relief

To My Loves One

On top of the condition above, below condition are apply as well

To qualify for tax relief for cash top-ups made to your spouse's/siblings' CPF accounts, your spouse/siblings must meet either of the following conditions:

a. Income (e.g. salary or tax exempt income such as bank interest, dividends and pension) not exceeding $4,000 in the year preceding the year of top-up*; or

b. Handicapped**.

*"Income" of a person would include income from all sources, such as tax exempt income (e.g. bank interest, dividend and pension) and foreign-sourced income remitted into Singapore. Hence investment income/rental income/directorship income etc, are considered to be income of a person.

** A handicapped person is one who has been incapacitated mentally or physically. Some examples are visual-impairment, loss of hearing, loss of limb and dementia.

EC World REIT - Q3FY17

EC World REIT


Risk

  1. Lease Expired concentration from Oct 2020 onward which account 86.6% of gross rental income (Q2FY17 Wale 3.5 years)
  2. Asset concentration risk as it is within the province and the asset is very close to each other
  3. 3 of the asset on the same sector are close each other
      • Chongxian Port Investment, Chongxian Port Logistics, Fu Zhuo Industrial 
        • Those assest are likely depend on the steel demand and account 46.% of the total gross revenue
        1. 70% of the gross rental income depend on the cash flow of the Sponsor - Forchn Holding
        2. RMB - SGD Currency fluctuation
        3. Watch Metal demand and price.... up and down might impact the port asset rental or even the default in worst case
        4. $200 million loan are offshore loan which has a risk of currency fluctuation
        5. The overall loan interest is pretty high compare to the existing reits at 5.4% which might give a hint on the quality of the Sponsor that is not that strong and any increase/decrease of interest rate by 25bps will have impact of around $772,000 based on FY2016 annual report. 
          • This currently mitigated by interest rate swap to manage the fluctuation



        Why I take the risk

        1. Small public float of 20% and supported by few big institution.
          1. The sponsor is currently holding 41.2% and one of the loan provision is the sponsor must hold at least 30% of total units
        2. Low gearing 29.2%
        3. Dividend Yield around 7.5% (based on $0.78 price and assumption of 6% annualized yield) with built in rental escalation which will help to boost the dividend growth - yet to be proven
          1. Chongxian Port Investment will have 5% rental increment in FY2018 and it currently contribute around 33% gross revenue based on Q2FY17 
          2. Beigang logistic will have 1% rental increment every year and it currently contribute around 27.5%
          3. Fu Heng will have 5% rental increment in FY2018 and it is currently contribute around 10% of gross rental income
        4. Current CEO average cost is at $0.77 and holding 80,000 shares
        5. Performance fee is based on DPU growth, they won't get paid if it is like Sabana Reit.
        6. There is a clause in the loan that the unit holder fund should not be less than the higher of (i) 75% of the net assets attributable ($682,024,000) to Unitholders as at the Listing Date and (ii) S$460,000,000. Taking the lowest this will translate to $0.58

        What Cause dividend to drop for Q3 17
        This will happen if they use this approach

        Chongxian Port Investment, Stage 1 Properties of Bei Gang Logistics and Fu Heng Warehouse are the three Properties under the Master Leases, and they are expected to collectively contribute to 71.6% of the IPO Portfolio’s Gross Rental Income (RMB298.7 million) for Projection Year 2017. In the absence of the master lease arrangements, the contribution of these Properties to the IPO Portfolio’s Gross Rental Income (RMB251.4 million) will decrease to 68.0%.

        According to the Independent Valuers, the rental rate of each of the Properties under the Master Leases is expected to rise and approach the master lease rental level at the end of the five-year period for the reasons as follows. Savills reported that the rent of each of the Properties under the Master Leases is expected to rise as they are dominating projects in the locality. Colliers reported that as the Hangzhou Government imposes more restrictions on the land supply for port use and fewer comparable ports will be built in its area, the rent of Chongxian Port Investment is expected to increase. According to Colliers, outlook for both Stage 1 Properties of Bei Gang Logistics and Fu Heng Warehouse is also expected to be positive as Bei Gang Logistics will become a more mature project in its market and is likely to remain competitive, while Fu Heng Warehouse is expected to benefit from the increased demand and limited supply for e-commerce logistics parks

        October 2017 Portfolio update - 2017 income achieved

        My Current Portfolio

        Stock Name
        First REIT
        Frasers logistics and Industrial
        Religare Health Trust (RHT)
        IReit Global
        AIMS AMP Capital Industrial REIT
        CapitaLand Retail China
        Mapletree Greater China Trust
        Fortune REIT

        It has been quite sometime since my last post i update on my portfolio

        Some of my portfolio movement
        1. Frasers Commercial Trust due to uncertainty on the lease renewal for HP exit with some profit that will last me for another 2 Q dividend my purchase price
        2. Trimmed some of my holding in Religare Health Trust with some profit hence my average cost now is 0.66 cents
        3. Increased my holding in Frasers Logistics and Industrial.

        With First Reit announcement on the dividend of 2.14 cent I have achieved my 2017 target of $26000 and I might hit $28000 depend on my last 2 stock dividend to be announced at later part

        I will have challenge to achieve my next target of $28000 unless opportunity knock on my door as I have been selling and buying some of my holding.

        First Reit - Siloam Hospitals Button, Lippo Plaza Button and Siloam Hospital Yogyakarta acquisition

        For Financial Year 2017, the manager has acquired 1 property and 1 more in process,
        • Siloam Hospitals Buton  and Lippo Plaza Buton (It is a one single story retail that connected to the Hospital) which completed in 10 October 2017, based on the projection in 2016 Financial year it will contribute additional of 0.07 cent
          • For the hospital the base rent is $1.6 million and will start to increase after 5 years. No variable rent for the first 5 years.
          • For the Plaza base rent is $1.242 million and will start to increase after 5 years
          • The lease term for both properties is 15 years + 15 years
          • Total base rent will yield around 10%
        •  Siloam Hospitals Yogyakarta  that was announced on 13 October 2017 to be acquired and based on the projection in 2016 Financial year it will contribute additional 0.03 cent.
          •  Base rent of $2.43 million, resulted about 8.8% yield and will start to increase after 5 years. No variable rent for the fist 5 years
          • The lease term is 15 years  + 15 years

        The current dividend from Q1FY17 to Q3FY17 has been flat at 2.14 cent, assuming it will be the same for Q4FY17 then it will bring the total dividend of  8.56 cent which is an increase from 8.47 cent - an increase of 1% from previous year which lag from what I projected of 2% per year.

        Based on the cost and the yield above, if I to assume 0.03 cents on the lower end for the future acquisition and available of debt /$150 millions before reaching 40%, First Reit should be able to add another 0.15 cent. With this, First Reit has a potential to give 8.71 cent base on the current dividend yield excluding the organic rental growth.

        Base on the previous purchase  the following properties will have their base rent adjusted and variable rent kick in which will provide a little boost to 2018 dividend
        1. Siloam Sriwijaya : $3.9 million. Base rental increment and variable rent start from 29 Dec 2017
        2. Siloam Hospitals Kupang & Lippo Plaza Kupang: $6.9m base rental increment and variable rent start from 14 Dec 2018
        As for the most recent one, it will start at the later years and notice the year has been increase from the previous 3 years to 5 years now
        1. Siloam Hospitals Labuan Bajo: $1.85 million. Base rental increment start and variable rent from 30 Dec 2021
        2. Siloam Hospitals Buton And Lippo Plaza Buton: $2.84 million. Base rental increment and variable rent  start from 10 Oct 2022
        I am expecting for the rest of the properties will have their rental adjust upward even not a lot as the current inflation from Jan to Sep is 0.6%.

        Past First Reit Post

        Monday 30 October 2017

        Keppel-KBS US Reit - Quick Review - Offering Price is US$0.88


        Summary

        1. Keppel-KBS US REIT offers the distribution yield for Forecast Year 2018 of 6.8% and Forecast Year 2019 of 7.2%. This translate to 5.8% yield growth
        2. Net Asset is US$0.84 translate to 1.04 P/B
        3. Rental escalation between 2-3% for 97.5% of current lease
        4. Positive rental reversion might be possible as the current passing rate is lower than market rate
        5. weighted average lease expiry (“WALE”) by NLA as at 30 June 2017 of 3.7 years (ManuLife is 5.3). No single year has more than 20% of total leases expiring which is good to diverse the concentration risk.
        6. 36% gearing providing additional debt headroom of approximately US$131.6 million before reaching 45%, however right issues might be coming in the future.
          • Interest rate is floating at average of 3.x% vs ManuLife fixed interest rate around 2.x%
        7. Interest coverage ratio based on FY2017 is 3.3x whereby ManuLife is 5x
        8. Occupancy Rate is 90% whereby ManuLife is 95%
        9. Debt maturity earliest will be in FY2021 with the average interest of 3.35%. Borrowing are dominated in US dollars hence provide natural hedge to the currency risk.
        10. Diversified tenant base with limited tenant concentration with top tenant contribute not more than 22.3%, led by tenants in growth and defensive sectors such as technology, finance and insurance, professional services as well as medical and healthcare
        11. All the 11 property are freehold mixture of Grade A and Grade B office (ManuLife is mainly on Grade A) and the first distribution, which will be in respect of the period from the Listing Date to 30 June 2018 (“First Distribution”), will be paid by the Manager on or before 30 September 2018.
        Beware of the forex loss when in the future they issue rights and you try to subscribe more than what you allocated and do not manage to get it. Look at HWZ forum for some of the sharing on ManuLife rights

        Download KEPPEL-KBS US Reit IPO Prospectus here

        In Summary,
        I am favouring ManuLife (Not vested) and I think the main drawback is the 1st distribution is still far away - don't see why I want to lock my money so long.

        Note:
        “Cash Rental Income” is defined as rental income and recoveries income without straight-line adjustments and amortization of tenant improvement allowance, leasing commissions and free rent incentives.



        OVERVIEW OF KEPPEL-KBS US REIT

        Keppel-KBS US REIT is a Singapore REIT established with the investment strategy of principally
        investing, directly or indirectly, in a diversified portfolio of income-producing commercial assets
        and real estate-related assets in the key growth markets of the United States.

        The IPO Portfolio comprises a balanced and resilient mix of Class A and B office buildings in the CBD and suburban areas, well-served by key transportation nodes and supporting amenities.

        KEY INVESTMENT HIGHLIGHTS

        Keppel-KBS US REIT offers investors the opportunity to gain exposure to the attractive US office real estate sector via a publicly listed platform, backed by a distinctive portfolio of high quality, income-producing office buildings, and backed by strong Sponsors, as well as an experienced management team focused on delivering long-term sustainable distribution and total returns to Unitholders



         Dividend


        Keppel-KBS US REIT offers the distribution yield for Forecast Year 2018 of 6.8% and Forecast Year 2019 of 7.2% translate to 5.8% yield growth.

        Approximately 79.5% and 75.2% of Cash Rental Income for Forecast Year 2018 and Projection Year 2019 is derived from existing leases, respectively. Furthermore, at least 75% of interest expense will be hedged.

        Assumption to achieve 5.8% growth ,
        The distribution yield growth from Forecast Year 2018 to Projection Year 2019 of 5.8% is underpinned by built-in rental escalations, positive rental reversion opportunities and potential increase in IPO Portfolio occupancy level.

        Organic growth opportunity to growth the dividend
        Built-in rental escalations,
        Approximately 97.5% of existing leases by Cash Rental Income and 97.5% of existing leases by NLA have built-in rental escalations. The rental escalations generally range from 2.0% to 3.0%.


        Positive rental reversion opportunities,
        The IPO Portfolio has a WALE by NLA as at 30 June 2017 of 3.7 years, with below market average rents for expiring leases. This offers the opportunity to lease expiring space at potentially higher
        market rent rates.





        Lease up opportunities,

        CapitaLand Retail China Trust (CRCT) Q3FY17

        Overall Summary

        1. Slight drop of occupancy from 96.2% to 95.6% compare to previous quarter and drop in dividend compare to previous quarter due to disposal of CapitaMall Anzhen.
        2. CapitaMall Minzhongleyuan have negative rental reversion for 270 sq m area -Even it is small area, kinda disappointed to see this though as previously reversion for Q1FY17 was 35.1% and Q2FY17 64.4%.
        3. Bulk of the remaining lease to expire in Q417 come from CapitaMall Minzhongleyuan (26.1%) and CapitaMall Wuhu (14.1%). Let see if CapitaMall Mingzhongleyuan will be able to have good rental reversion as Q117 or Q217. As for CapitaMall Wuhu, nothing to be expected will see what the Manager will do with Wuhu.
        4. Overall rental reversion is positive (average Q1FY17 was 3.6%, Q2FY17 was 7.1%, Q3FY17 is 7.5%)
        5. Gearing at 35.4% with the borrowing cost at 2.44% and Interest coverage ratio at 6 times
        6. Net Asset Value at $1.61

        Dividend History for 2017

        Dividend drop against Q217 from 2.62 cent to 2.37 cents. I am Expecting one time distribution for Q417 to level up the DPU due to the loss of income from CapitaMall Anzhen or a new acquisition to replace CapitaMall Anzhen

        Frasers Commercial Trust (FCOT) Q4FY17

        Overall

        1. We have yet feel the impact of HP lease expiry as the 1st tranche only expire in 30 Sep and next will be 30 Nov
        2. Between now to 1Q18 will need to assume lost of income around 18% of gross rental
          1. Are you ready to accept the worst scenario? 
          2. However the place to be vacated out passing rent is current below the market rate
        3. Positive rental reversion for Q417 due to central park
        4. WALE for Singapore office is pretty short which around 1 year plus
          1. To note, office property lease expiry will be around 7.7% gross rental
          2. Passing rent and current rent not much a big gap.
          1. Based on the average 3-5 years lease period, the likely worst rental reversion may come in FY18 on-ward as office rent was on uptrend from 2014 to 2015 (Wrong???)

        Dividend

        As expected, there is no catalyst for the dividend growth. For Q417 the dividend is lower by 1.6% compare to last year Q417 at 2.407 cent even with 18% Management fees to be paid by FCOT Units. In Q416, no management fees paid in unit.

         

         

         

         

         

         

         

         

         

         

         

        Lease Expiry Profile

        1. 33.8% of gross rental will expire in FY18
        2. Hewlett-Packard Enterprise confirm not renewing 6.6% of it
          1. Management has manage to rent out 61,000 out of 178.843 sf and from the rental revision slide, seems like the management has achieve rental +1.1% what HPE has paid
        3. Next blow seem will come from  Hewlett-Packard Singapore Pte Ltd (HPS) which account 11.1% of FCOT rental and will expire in 30 Nov 2017 - This will likely push down the dividend.
        4.  Will we see negative rental reversion in FY18?
          1. Grade B CBD rent is $7.3 
            1. CSC passing rent is $7.62 and it is account for 6.3% of gross rental income
            2. 55 Market Street passing rent is $7.3 
          2. Business Park (city) rent is $5.55 and ATP passing rent is $4
            1. Do you see this as a jewel in crisis?
          3. Central Park passing rent is $554 vs current $700 likely will achieve positive rental reversion. This might explain why central park rental boost the portfolio positive rental reversion

        Debt for FY18 $69m and $120m has been secured to be extended to 2021 and 2022 hence no debt will need to be refinance for FY18.

        Debt for FY19 of $98.4m and $117m will need to be refinance by Nov 18 and Feb 18

        In Summary

        1. Renewal  lease reversion is -4.3% and for those new rental and there is no information what is the rate of new rental secured to replace expired rental if it is below the expired rent rate.
        2. The industrial leasing market remains challenging as supply continues to outpace demand in a soft market environment. This is likely to exert further downward pressure on rentals and occupancy
        3. 8 Tuas Avenue 20 has secured the 1st tenant with 10 years lease, with the close proximity the prospect to secure the tenant should be better.
        4. 51 Marsiling Road will be ready in 2Q18 and provide around $3.5m rental, this should cushion the negative rental reversion and lost of Cimelia master lease.
