This note gathers feedback from the group meetings and the panels. In total 21 companies were presented in group meetings and/or panels. More than 100 guests found their way to the venue either physical or virtual (only panels). The 2 panels made for informative additions to the C-level meetings and a nice platform for discussion. Wednesday afternoon concentrated 4 experts from Logistic companies (CTP, Montea, VGP, WDP) for an interesting discussion on brownfields: " an answer to the scarcity of...
We publish our conference book with info on the panels, the graphs on the market and company profiles. European REITS suffered from macro and geo-political worries (logistics) Also, the European knee-jerk reaction on the bund (+60 bps) had a negative effect. We believe that despite these worries, REITS are a good place to hide, given their high visibility and proven growth potential in a tough environment. Our top-picks are Shurgard, WDP and Xior. SHUR and WDP have ample headroom on their balanc...
We revisit our model on Immobel after the FY24 results and the dividend cut. The dividend cut was necessary given the short term debt maturities. We expect 2025 to be a recovery year from the trough in FY24 margins, with slightly lower asset sales versus FY24. A cash recovery from the EUR 18.0m building permit from the Proximus towers could be a short term trigger for the stock. We think it is likely but nothing is confirmed. In FY25, Immobel needs to pay back a EUR 50.0m bond which is covered ...
Yesterday Immobel announced the block sale of 124 apartments in Luxembourg to Fonds Kirchberg. The apartments will be sold (leasehold) further to individuals in a later stage. The apartments are part of the Kiem 2050 project, a JV between Immobel (70%) and Prefalux Home (30%). The project is a public-private partnership to create affordable homes in Luxembourg. The residential part of the project is now sold and construction can start. As construction starts now and cash instalments are phased ...
BE-REITS suffer from macro-worries (logistics) and post-Trump knee-jerk reaction. We believe that especially money flows are pushing stocks down as interest rate fears resurfaced in the US. Our top-picks are Shurgard, WDP and Xior. SHUR and WDP have ample headroom on their balance sheet to continue their growth track record. WDP is also very cheap on cash earnings metrics vs. peers. Xior can grow and fix its balance sheet at the same time through contributions in kind.
We reviewed our Immobel figures, following a market update for 2024 and adjusted our estimates.2024 is expected to be much better (sales +50%) yet still subdued (ROE remaining at mid single digits).Slow market reopening could imply a tough 2025 due to a delayed investment market reopening, the liquidity impact of the Proximus towers acquisition at the end of 2024 and a sizeable refinancing wall coming up.While revenues are expected to grow, we continue to see short-term pressure on the balance ...

In this note, we perform a reality check on the BE residential market. Immobel portfolio has 52% exposure to BE and 73% to residential (1H23). In recent quarters, housing inflation has lagged the general consumer price index. We believe that Immobel will continue to sell residential RE units at a lower rate that holds the debt ratio below critical levels (incl. JV debt). We made some adjustments to our model and valuation metrics. We lower our TP from €63.0 to €40.0 and reiterate our Accumulat...
