- It was announced on Bursa that IGB and Selia Pantai – in
relation to the MoU signed earlier for a mixed commercial development at South
Key on a piece of land measuring 36acres – have signed two conditional
shareholders’ agreements for the establishment of two 70:30 joint-ventures.
- At the same time, both IGB and Selia Pantai have also
signed an SPA for the acquisition of the land for RM259.1mil or RM165psf. This
appears pricey, but the development is located in a prime area within Johor
Bahru with excellent accessibility. Pursuant to the JV, IGB’s portion would be
circa RM181mil, which would be funded by borrowings and internal funds.
- The JV intends to co-develop a megamall and possibly other
commercial/residential properties, including hotel, serviced apartments and
offices. The megamall would have an NLA of circa 1.5mil sf – almost as big as
MidValley MegaMall – with close to 7,000 parking bays.
- It enjoys frontage of Jalan Tebrau, Jalan Bakar Batu as
well as the recently-completed Eastern Dispersal Link. It is located just five
minutes away from the Sultan Iskandar Customs, Immigration and Quarantine (CIQ)
complex. Apart from the location, there is a lack of supply of new malls within
the JB area; hence, we believe the mall would be a success.
- As we have highlighted earlier, we estimate the mall to
provide an additional NOI of RM50mil p.a. (or accounts for 14% of our NOI
estimate for FY12F) to IGB, assuming an NLA of 1.5mil sf, a conservative rental
rate of RM5psf and occupancy rate of
70%. Plus, assuming a 7% cap rate the mall would provide a decent 5% uplift to
our NAV estimate.
- However, we are not able to provide an estimate for the
GDV of this development – excluding the mall – due to the absence of details
especially on the development mix. Hence, we are not factoring it into our
model at this juncture.
- We continue to like IGB Corp because the group is looking
at crystallising the deep value of its retail malls in Mid-Valley City –
triggered by high implied capital values. The group would likely follow up with
an office and hospitality REIT, subsequently. Our fair value is maintained at
RM3.50/share
