Keppel Ltd Expect stronger 2H24F
■ KEP’s 1H24 net profit of S$304m was a miss due to lower profits from infra associates, lower dividend distribution from KIT, and higher Floatel losses. ■ Infrastructure’s 1H24F integrated power profits remained firm hoh, with 60% of its portfolio locked in for 3 years above, unaffected by spot market volatility. ■ Despite weaker earnings, interim DPS remained at S$0.15, or a c.89% payout, higher than its usual c.61% over the past 2 years. ■ Re-rating catalyst: sizeable asset monetisation and recovery of property market in China. Maintain Add, but lower SOP-based TP to S$8.28.

CapitaLand Ascendas REIT (CLAR SP) Stable performance
Healthy reversions offset by higher financing cost CLAR reported 1H DPU of SGD7.52c, +1.1% HoH/-2.5% YoY. Higher interest expense and an enlarged number of units offset top-line growth. Portfolio occupancy was stable though US business parks saw lower occupancy. Rent reversion was mid-teen positive for 1H and, consequently, rent reversion guidance has been raised to high single-digit from mid-single digit for the FY. Borrowing cost crept up by 20bps HoH. All in, a steady report card. We maintain our forecasts, BUY rating and TP of SGD2.90.
