UBM Development raised to BUY, TP EUR 39.0 - Increased pipeline, less hotel & more residential exposure

We upgrade UBM to BUY with a new TP of EUR 39.0 (from EUR 43.0) on the back of (1) a share price decline in recent months, (2) the shift in the project pipeline away from hotel development and (3) an increase in projects expected to be completed in the medium term. The new target price implies an upside of 32%. Residential development which encompasses 43% of the new pipeline continues to perform well despite the pandemic. This is the case especially in Austria and Germany, where most of the developments are located and should provide a solid earnings base. Additionally, new, high-quality office buildings could also start seeing demand driven by institutional investors looking for yield. Nevertheless, uncertainties in the office segment remain present, in our view.
