Far East Hospitality Trust (FEHT SP) 3Q23: Rising RevPAR And Profitability Driven By Surge In Visitor Arrivals
RevPAR increased 44% yoy and 14% qoq to S$131 for its nine hotels. All hotels contributed variable rent, which accounted for 31% of master lease rental in 9M23. The incentive fee of S$18m will be utilised to cushion the negative impact of higher interest rates. FEHT provides a 2024 distribution yield of 7.8%. Its P/NAV of 0.63x is unwarranted given its good corporate governance, strong sponsor and low aggregate leverage of 32.2%. Maintain BUY. Target price: S$0.76.

STRATEGY – HONG KONG Takeaways From Hong Kong 2023 Policy Address
We have a neutral view on the policies related to the stock market and we expect a short-term rebound in ADT but sustained recovery will still depend on China’s macro development and US monetary policy. For the property sector, the relaxation of demandside management measures is within expectation. However, combing the aggressive land supply plan and weak population policy, the overall impact on the property industry is natural to negative. Sales need to be closely watched.

Far East Hospitality Trust (FEHT SP) Riding the tailwinds
Robust 9M23 performance FEHT’s 3Q23 distributable income (DI) of SGD22.9m rose 19.3% QoQ and +51% YoY. 9M23 DI of SGD60.3m grew 36.7% YoY and was 80.5% of our fullyear forecast. Growth was underpinned by continued recovery of RevPAR for hotels and service residences (SRs), and distribution of divestment gains. Cost of debt held steady, helped by a lower hedge ratio. We raise our FY23 DPU forecast by 6% by factoring in better performance but lower our DDM-based TP to SGD0.75 (-6%) due to a higher discount rate. Maintain BUY on distribution stability and the sector’s growth outlook.
