GuocoLand Limited ($2.14, up 0.01) has secured a S$634.7 million green club facility (“green facility”) from Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporati on Limited and Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Limited Singapore Branch to fi nance the development of its Lentor Central site, which was awarded on 6 March 2026. Raised under GuocoLand’s Green Finance Framework, the latest green facility for the future residenti al development at the Lentor Central site expands GuocoLand’s portfolio of green a facilities for its residential properties, including Springleaf Residence, Faber Residence and River Modern; as well as for the commercial components of its integrated mixed developments, Guoco Tower and Guoco Midtown. We continue to like the solid and robust track record of Guocoland’s development projects in the lentor area which will likely be another “sell-out”. At 0.6X price to book, 3-4% dividend yield and 50% upside to consensus target price of $3.30, we maintain an “Accumulate” rating on Guocoland.

SGX ($24.11, up 2 cents) announced enhancements to market structure and mechanics proposed by Singapore Exchange Regulati on (SGX RegCo) earlier this year will be implemented in stages starti ng this month. These proposals received broad support from market participants during the public consultati ons. SGX market cap stands at S$25.7bln and currently trades at 36x forward PE and 11.3x PB, with a dividend yield of 2%. Consensus target price stands at S22.34, representing 7% upside from current share price. This announcement is likely to boost the trading of liquidity of most large caps that has share prices of above $10 as it will improve trading liquidity and give access to retailers. Although steps are taken to boost the SG market such as EQDP funding and reduction of standard board lot size, we think SGX has run it’s course and valuati ons now remain loft y. As such, we have a HOLD recommendation on SGX. |

Frasers Centrepoint Trust White Sands exit: what comes next?
■ FCT plans to divest White Sands at an 8.4% premium over valuation. ■ Near-term DPU impact is modestly dilutive but the divestment strengthens FCT’s balance sheet through debt repayment. ■ We think the White Sands divestment reflects FPL’s value-unlocking strategy, alongside its ongoing consolidation of landholdings around The Centrepoint. ■ Maintain Add, with an unchanged DDM-based TP of S$2.86.
