WOOD Flash – Graphisoft Park: solid 1Q19 results, FFO up 30% yoy

Graphisoft Park reported a solid set of 1Q19 earnings yesterday evening (8 May), with the FFO some 30% higher yoy. At a sub-6% yield, the valuation of the portfolio remains relatively stretched. That said, the leasing demand is still strong in Budapest offices, and there is upward pressure on rents evident throughout the city. At the same time, the investment demand remains strong, and yields are tight. As such, the gap between our perception of the value of the portfolio and the actual reported fair value has narrowed since our initiation, published in December 2017. Looking ahead, the FFO should maintain its upward trajectory in 2019E, in our view, driven by the full contribution of the development in the southern area of the Park, completed in 2018. Management’s guidance suggests 2019E FFO of EUR 11.8m. On the current share price, this translates into about a 10.7% FFO yield, the highest among our coverage.
