@joeytay - scold management for share price? are you kidding me? that's like saying i should scold you because it rained so heavily yesterday that there was flash floods! if there is business loss, or property value impairment due to bad mgmt then you can scold. so far, i will commend KIP mgmt for maintaining the steady Property Yields but will tell them to buck up on the Melaka and NS properties as the utilization there is low.
Raised concern last time, now Chew is holding 196,882,935 shares. Ong is holding 196,646,035 shares. Both person is running away from this counter? The holding from 272mil till today, 196mil for both person.
Gone... so disappointed to trust in this counter.
_____________________________________________________________________________ ivanforbay Something fishy, both director Ong and Chew's shareholding of direct and indirect keep reducing. I don't see any of the sell transaction reported but their "Total no of securities after change" is reducing. Anybody know why? 28/12/2017 16:37
ivanforbay Ong and Chew have aroun 272mil shares in Feb, and till date, only 219mil shares in total including direct and indirect. I don't understand this. Where are the rest of the shares gone?(No sell or transfer transaction disclosed at all) Anybody can shine a light? 28/12/2017 17:01 ______________________________________________________________________________
Most important their direct holding increases, even though their indirect holding decreases (The share the same holding company and need to find other investors to reduce if they need cash).
Occupancy Rate - NPI (for the last 4 quarter) KiPMart Bangi : 82.32% , NPI of 9.466m KiPMart Lavender Senawang, - 80.32% , NPI of 0.914m KiPMart Melaka - 67.32% , NPI of 1.586m
They need to bump up the 3 remaining KiPMart Rental rate as far as i concern.... specially KiPMart Bangi as the valuation is the 3rd biggest and shall contribute the largest income to KIPREIT.
Overall i can see some improvement Quarter-on-quarter basis (encouraging result) .
Their effective interest rate is at 4.75% (slightly higher than 4.5% average big sized REIT)
Available credit is at 218m @ interest of 10.40m per annum
The only concern about this company is tenancy expiry profile where most of them are at FY2018, and FY2019... Rental reversion rate is guided at 3%, which I think if the tenant stays, the rental will be just flat...
But overall, they still have a lot of space to fill in @ KiPMart Bangi.
Kuala Lumpur, 23 April 2018 – KIP Real Estate Investment Trust (“KIP REIT” or “the Fund”), the first hybrid community-centric retail REIT listed on Bursa Malaysia today announced its third quarter results ended 31 March 2018 (“Q3FY2018”) with a total revenue of RM15.67 million and a higher profit after tax (“PAT”) of RM8.85 million compared with the immediate preceding quarter ended 31 December 2017 (“Q2FYE2018”).
PAT for the quarter improved marginally by RM0.1 million or 1.1% higher compared to Q2FYE2018 due to the occupancy rate improving from 85.0% to 86.2% in the current quarter and lower other operating cost.
For the quarter under review, the Manager of KIP REIT declared an interim distribution per unit (“DPU”) of 1.78 sen per unit, amounting to approximately RM8.85 million which will be paid to unitholders on 25 May 2018. For the trailing twelve months, the Fund has declared a total distribution of RM35.12 million or 6.95 sen per unit which translated to a distribution yield of 9.5%*.
KIP REIT also announced today that it is going green by entering into a 25-year initiative to install solar photovoltaic system on all of KIP REIT’s assets which will generate 2,730 kilowatt peak electricity energy. This will save the Fund an approximate total of RM26.4 million of electricity cost throughout the 25-year period which will increase the net property income of the Fund.
Commenting on the financial results, Dato’ Chew Lak Seong, Managing Director of KIP REIT Management Sdn Bhd (the Manager of KIP REIT) said, “This quarter’s results is very important to us as it gives us a full twelve (12) months of financial track record to prove ourselves. We are proud to say that we have exceeded expectations with our exemplary performance which allowed us to distribute a total of 6.95 sen per unit for the past 12 months. At the current market price, KIP REIT provides exceptional value with a distribution yield of 9.5%, one of the highest yields among the REIT players while still providing stable growing earnings.”
He continued, “Barring any unforeseen circumstances, KIP REIT is expected to continue improving as we constantly pursue the perfect tenant mix and undertake asset enhancement initiatives to ensure that the properties yield stronger performance.”
*The distribution yield of 9.5% is based on the closing price of RM0.735 per KIP REIT unit as at 23 April 2018. ***

I never been any asset held by KIPREIT. Is it good, any feedback from people in Johor or other places who visit the assets held by KIPREIT. Luckily the price is quite stable after the good quarter result recently.
GE has pairing down their stakes from 33m to only 26m, it really not sounding good! With the issues of Dirty Toilet! Cockroaches! Rats! From fb I see peoples are complaining it since 2016 but still look like no action taken... What a wonderful reit it could be ?
This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....

Surely kick all directors out of the board and appoint U Tang Tang to go in.
