United Hampshire US REIT IPO - E-Commerce Resistant Maybe but Still Not Doing Great

United Hampshire US REIT (UHUS) aims to raise up to US$325m in its Singapore IPO. UHUS will invest in grocery-anchored and necessity-based retail properties, and self-storage facilities, located in the U.S.

The initial portfolio consists of 22 assets with an aggregate net lettable area (NLA) of 3.17m sqft on the East Coast of the U.S. The portfolio comprises 18 grocery & necessity properties with a total NLA of 2.86m sq ft and four self-storage Properties with a total NLA of 0.31m sq ft. The aggregate purchase consideration payable is US$582.5m.

While the assets are being marketed for their tenant’s e-commerce resilience, their past performance hasn’t exactly been steady. Furthermore, the outlook for the industry doesn’t appear rosy either.

In this note, I’ll look at the company’s past performance and highlight some of the issues with the deal
