Lendlease Global Commercial REIT Sale of Jem office may lower gearing to 35%
■ Our scenario analysis shows that the divestment of Jem office could result in -2.8%/+8.8% FY25F/26F DPU impact; adjusted ICR to remain close to 1.5x. ■ However, post-divestment gearing should fall to c.35%, restoring LREIT’s inorganic growth potential at a time when interest rates are projected to fall. ■ Reiterate Add. We think downside risks have been priced into LREIT’s FY25F DPU yield of 6.6% and it has multiple avenues to improve its balance sheet.

Delfi (DELFI SP) 2Q24: Results Fall Short; Hurdles Remain
Delfi’s 1H24 revenue and PATMI of US$260m (-8% yoy) and US$20m (-22% yoy) respectively missed our expectations, both forming 45% of our full-year estimates. The poorer results came on currency depreciation, weaker demand for its own brands and termination of an agency brand in Indonesia. Despite this, interim dividend was maintained at 2.06 US cents/share. As headwinds such as high cocoa prices remain, we maintain HOLD with a lower target price of S$0.83 (S$1.07 previously).
