ONE United Properties: ONE to rule them all? (HOLD - initiation of coverage)

ONE United Properties (ONE) is a Romanian residential and office developer. Initially focusing on high-end projects for affluent clients, the company has quickly gained recognition and a strong following among customers, and is currently ramping-up its operations substantially, expanding into more-affordable segments. Cumulatively, ONE has delivered around 700 apartments in the past seven years. By 2022-23E, we expect that it could be selling 1.0k apartments annually. The projects that it has completed thus far have generated a gross profit margin of 32%, while it expects the 1.6k apartments currently under development, and the c.4k in planning, to generate a GPM of c.40-45%. ONE listed 10% of its shares on the Bucharest market in July 2021, raising EUR 53m in the IPO, and is currently trading at c.2.3x P/B, 9.0x P/E, 8.4x EV/EBITDA and a c.4% dividend yield, on our 2022E estimates. We believe the valuation suggests that the market expects the high margins to be sustainable. ONE has also developed several office projects, and we estimate that by 2024E, these should have a NAV of c.EUR 160-180m and generate rents of around EUR 23-24m annually. We initiate coverage of ONE with a HOLD rating, setting our 12M PT at RON 1.44/share.
