I believe one of the main reason for this giant to trade at such low price now is mainly due to Rights Issue in Feb 2023 at 29.6% discount to last trading price (
Link). This resulted in lower dividend % due to enlarged share numbers. Nevertheless, the Rights Issue is 240% subscribed (
Link).
2) Dividend 5.69%This time round, there is a scrip option for dividend where we can get discounted shares :)
3) PB 0.64
We are looking at 14% upside for PB if it can hit the average 0.88
4) Hong Kong Retail +7.1% rental reversion
Hong Kong Retail is 52.4% of Link Reit portfolio. As long as the rental reversion is positive, Link Reit should be good.
5) Hong Kong Car Parks Income...
