Grit Real Estate Income Group - Research from QuotedData
5th July 2022
Transition underway
African property company Grit Real Estate Income Group (Grit) has cleared a path for increased dividend distributions and net asset value (NAV) growth following a decisive piece of corporate action in the form of a heavily NAV dilutive capital raise. It has used the proceeds to bring its loan to value (LTV - borrowings plus cash as a percentage of portfolio valuation) under control and to expand its core business with the acquisition of a developer and asset manager.
The developer - Gateway Real Estate Africa (GREA) - has an attractive pipeline of NAV accretive development projects, most notably diplomatic residences across the continent let to the US government and data centres (see page 5 for an in-depth look at the development pipeline). Meanwhile, within its current portfolio, its hospitality assets are rebounding with the return of international travel, and retail valuations seem to have bottomed out - suggesting valuation growth in these sectors. Grit also has plans to ramp up exposure to the industrial sector, which is chronically undersupplied across Africa.
