Top Plays: Sinpas and IS REIT
Is and Sinpas REIT - offer upside coupled with catalysts
Is REIT has taken steps to enhance the efficiency of its portfolio and is on course to deliver a sustainable 10% RoE from 2015 vs. an historic 6-7%. Our forecasts do not include the 3 upcoming projects, which should add 8% to the NAV; (i) the 150,000sqm residential Kartal project (1Q14 launch), (ii) the 15,000sqm residential Altunizade project (2014 launch) and the (iii) 26,000sqm leasable area office-retail Atasehir Finance Center project (expected completion date of 2016). Furthermore, the recently acquired 130,000sqm Pasabahce plot is likely to increase total GLA / GSA under construction by c.40%. We expect a CAGR of 16% in rental revenues and 15% in net income until 2016; 3Q13 net earnings should triple YoY to TRY50mn thanks to the TRY22mn gain from the hotel sale and TRY20mn from the delivery of 374 units in the Cinarli Bahce project. While its latest project launch had been in 1H12, Sinpas is to initiate five new projects over the next six months. Pre-sales of three of them started in September; the highend project in Istanbul - Bomonti Time (50,983 sqm saleable area) and two in Ankara - The First and Ankara Incek Life Residence (115,701 sqm saleable area) with a 12% pre-sales ratio in one month. Bomonti Time and The First projects, which should add 14% to the target value, are expected to generate respective solid IRRs of 17% and 22%. Sinpas will start the pre-sales of additional two projects (Istanbul Halkal Park and Ankara Buyukesat) on 145,674sqm saleable areas in 1H14. Following a 48% underperformance since 2010-beginning (among the worst 15 performers of BIST100), the stock trades at a 76% discount to its NAV vs. the historic average of 57%. We believe the stock is on its way for an imminent reversal.

5.1mn out of the 18.1mn homes in urban areas are unlicensed A deficit of safe and quality housing stock has accumulated due to the population explosion in big cities over the past 60 years. The population of Istanbul, Turkeys largest metropolis, has multiplied from 1.5mn in the 1950s to a current 14mn. The breakdown of urban and rural population in the country now stands at 78%/22%, compared to a vice versa breakdown in the 1920s, a shift spurred by internal migration coupled with the nations 2% p.a. population growth over the same period. For these reasons, the majority of urban dwellings are in poor condition. Moreover, 5.1mn out of the 18.1mn dwellings do not have any construction permits at all. Relatively high ratio of 81% owner-occupied urban dwellings in Turkey The Housing Finance Information Network (HOFINET) conducted a survey of the proportion of owner occupied urban dwellings in 60 countries combined with the percentage of their urban population in their total population. Turkey ranks 10 in the list, with 81% of dwellings in urban areas being owner-occupied, after Armenia, Hungary, China, India, Singapore, Spain, Venezuela, Sri Lanka and Russia. Most of these countries are not comparable to Turkey, in our view; for example, mortgage loans account for 70% of GDP in Singapore vs. 6% in Turkey, and urbanisation rates in India and Sri Lanka stand at 30% and 15%, vs. 70% in Turkey. Hungary, China Venezuela and Russia may have gained a comparative advantage over Turkey thanks to the socialist economic policies implemented in these countries. The mortgage system has a relatively short history in Turkey, being implemented only in May 2007, when compared to the Western countries. Thus, the high percentage of urban dwellings which are owner-occupied may be explained by the social behaviour of Turkish people in preference of owning their homes rather than leasing.

600,000 homes built by TOKI since 2003, re-shaping the market - The residential market remained stagnant in Turkey until the 2000s with the ownership of dwellings growing at a CAGR of 1.9% between 1968-97 years, falling short of the 4.5% average GDP growth in the same period. The limited supply of homes concentrated in mature traditional districts of Istanbul and the hyperinflationary environment undermined the affordability of households. The Housing Development Administration of Turkey (TOKI) was established in 1990 to tackle the shortage of urban housing for the low and middle income segments, and to cut unemployment, but became more active after the governing AKP came to power in 2002. The political strategy was to improve accessibility of the general population to housing by increasing supply. TOKI has developed 600,000 homes over the past ten years in the form of residential projects in underdeveloped and previously less popular districts of Istanbul. TOKI developed a modest 10% of the total supply after 2003, yet paved the way for private developers by enhancing the value of new districts in the city. Private developers followed TOKI launching projects for the upper-middle income segments. The chart above compares the construction permits issued, starting from 2002, with the number of occupancy permits issued, starting with 2004 to assume an average 2yr construction period. The number of construction permits granted expanded at a CAGR of 39% between 2002 and 2006, until pausing on the back of the weakness in consumer demand, before gaining momentum again in 2010 after the economic downturn.

Residential market further boosted by mortgage market - The enactment of the mortgage Law in 2007 to improve the primary market for mortgage finance, and the decline in interest rates since the beginning of 2009 have further supported the launch of new residential projects for the upper-middle income segment. While the number of new borrowers is highly correlated to the level of interest rates, the average size of the loans extended is less sensitive. In periods of rising interest rates, such as in 2H11, project developers have offered their own payment schemes as an alternative to banking loans with more flexible and longer term maturities in a bid to attract consumer demand.

Median sales price in Istanbul follows the cost index Having collapsed during the economic downturn, price indices for aggregate and new homes in Turkey have increased by 26% and 35% over the past three years. The construction cost index has increased by 24% over the same period. Hence, we could argue that housing prices have mainly followed the increase in construction costs with limited real appreciation. The median sales price in Istanbul in TRY per unit area terms has also followed the same trend. Unfortunately, we do not have further historic data which would enable us to judge whether the residential market is overpriced or not. Istanbul Median Sales Price vs. Construction Cost Index

Housing still in the unaffordable zone, yet in a better off place - The median transaction price in Turkey over the past month stands at US$94,596 (i.e.US$808/sqm) based on figures published by REIDIN, a real estate data provider focused on emerging markets. With a standard 75% loan-to-value ratio and weighted average of 11.0% annual mortgage rate applied for fresh openings, the annual loan repayment stands at TRY23,000. Based on the assumption that around 30% of a households disposable income is spent on housing, this transaction is attainable for all first time buyers in the 10 decile and some of the first time buyers in the 9 decile, thus amounting to roughly 10-15% of the households. REIDIN has been publishing an affordability index since July 2007 covering seven large cities in Turkey, with values above 100 indicating affordable levels. The index value in Istanbul stood at 57.71 as of July 2013, significantly lower than the threshold of 100, yet much better than the 29.18 figure recorded in July 2007.

We expect housing sales to grow by 24% YoY in 2H13 - In 2013, TURSTAT re-stated historic house sales figures in 2013 by adding mortgage sales, which alleviated our concerns of oversupply in the residential market. The past data had indicated that housing sales were 16% lower in 2010-12 than in 2008-09. Including mortgage sales, which amounted to 829,000 units in 2008-12, the number of dwellings sold in Turkey registered a 13% CAGR between 2008-12 to reach 702,000. Thanks to the historically low mortgage rates in 1H13, housing sales increased by 65% YoY. Growth in housing sales looks set to continue in 2H13, albeit with somewhat less momentum due to the slightly higher mortgage rates. We calculate 24% YoY growth in 2H13, resulting in 49% YoY growth for FY13.

Construction Permits
2014 to be more favourable for the residential real estate market After a slowdown in 2012, annual growth in the market reached 3.7% YoY in 1H13, driven by the 4.2% YoY consumption growth. We anticipate 4.1% YoY consumption growth for FY13 in the belief that the risks are on the upside given that Julys YoY industrial production came in at 5.8%, significantly better than our estimate, and the consumer confidence index component, which
reflects the tendency to buy a home over the next year, had not displayed any material weakness as of September. Moreover, we believe the weak base year effect from FY13 will support raw YoY comparisons for FY14. Our growth forecast for 2014 stands at 4.5%, on the assumption that volatility in the financial markets will gradually diminish in the coming months. We believe the fallout of the recent domestic tightening on economic activity in 2014 may in fact prove quite limited, unless the risk reversal continues and economic agents shift into crisis mode. We expect mortgage rates to remain at their current level of 11.0% throughout the remainder of 2013, and anticipate only a modest 30 basis point increase throughout 2014.
Favourable macro environment to overcome negative impact of VAT hike in 2014 The VAT increase on new homes from 1% to either 8% or 18%, depending on the location, will only be effective for new construction permits next year. The VAT increase will probably have front loaded some demand into 2013, and would either imply an average 10% price increase for new homes or 10% decrease in profits for developers from 2014. Our understanding here is that the effective VAT hike should be the sectors biggest challenge in 2014, yet its impact is unlikely to be destructive amid a positive macro environment.

Company in brief Is REIT is currently the third largest REIT in terms of market value with a TRY1.9bn portfolio size (based on December 2012 appraisal). While 79% of the asset portfolio is made up of land and rental income yielding buildings, the remaining 21% portion is comprised of on-going residential and mixed-use projects. Is REIT generated TRY107mn of rental income in FY12, a figure that is set to expand at a CAGR of 16% until 2016.

Rental yields to bounce back to their record high 20% levels. The current market value of Is REIT implies an 11.9% rental yield (FY13E rental income/EV), marking a 4pps premium over the benchmark bond yield of 7.63% in line with the average premium over the past three years. The rental yield should bounce back to its record high 20% level by 2016 thanks to a projected 16% CAGR for rental revenues. Our forecasts do not include the upcoming Kartal, Altunizade, AFC and Pasabahce projects, although these should all be launched from 2014. Excluding project sales to be booked in 2013 and 2015, Is REITs rental income is on course to expand bat a CAGR of 16% until 2016 thanks to four upcoming projects. Based on appraisal reports, retail and office rents in the AFC project are expected to stand at US$75/sqm and US$30/sqm, implying an aggregate rent of US$485/sqm vs. the actual US$330/sqm at IS Towers, which houses A Class office space on the European side of Istanbul. Strategy of 100% equity financing for project development to change; we expect external financing to reach 21% of the balance sheet by 2015. We project that Is REITs net debt position (TRY42mn at the end of 2012) will peak at TRY281mn (1.6x net debt/EBITDA) in 2015. Is REIT had US$75mn of bank loans as of December 2012, and we expect an increase of US$120mn by 2015. We expect Is REIT to maintain its dividend policy until 2015 (5% of paid-in capital, with a 4% yield), before a doubling in the ratio from 2016.

Investment Theme
Is REIT has taken important steps since 2010; (i) the acquisition / development of several high rental yielding assets to the portfolio, (ii) the withdrawal of bank loans (10% of 2012YE asset size to increase to 21% by 2015) to develop high return residential and mixed projects vs. a conservative 100% equity financing beforehand and (iii) a higher frequency of transactions with non - Is Group third party companies. Accordingly, we expect Is REIT to deliver a sustainable 10% ROE over our investment horizon, climbing to above 11% by 2018, from historical levels (and also our FY13 forecast) of 6-7%. Our forecasts do not include three upcoming projects (Kartal, Altunizade and the Atasehir Finance Center), which should offer a further contribution. Among these, the Kartal project (on a saleable area of 150,000 sqm) is the first in the pipeline with the pre-sales expected to kick off in 1Q14 and the Altunizade project (on a saleable area of 15,000 sqm) set to follow later in 2014. Meanwhile, Is REIT and its new partner, Timur Real Estate (in conjunction with the NEF brand) acquired a centrally located plot of 130,024 sqm in Pasabahce (on the Anatolian side of Istanbul) in October with respective 75% and 25% stakes. In the independent appraisal report, based on nine on-going projects and the zoning plan in the neighbourhood, a residential project with a saleable area of 225,000 sqm, at a price tag of US$2,500/sqm, would be feasible. Is REITs residential saleable area, which is either under construction or in the pipeline, stands at an estimated 253,000 sqm with a leasable retail or office area to be constructed stands at an estimated 262,000 sqm. Hence, a new project with a 225,000 sqm saleable area would provide a meaningful contribution to the valuation.

Is REIT provides a stable rental income, generated from a diversified asset portfolio with an occupancy ratio of almost 100%; we also expect strong growth in this rental income, with a CAGR of 16% until 2016. Furthermore, the Company has gained selective exposure to the housing market over the last two years. Is REIT has so far developed two medium sized boutique projects; Cinarli Bahce in Istanbul and Ege Perla in Izmir, which are both expected to offer an IRR of 15%. Is REIT pre-sold 35% of the Ege Perla units (to be delivered by 2015) in the space of just two months in 4Q12, at a time when consumer confidence was at the lowest levels seen in either 2011 or 2012. As of today, 50% of the 176 total units in Ege Perla have been pre-sold. We attribute the successful pre-sales performances to the hardnosed scrutiny applied in the project selection undertaken by Is REIT.

Regional expansion and segmentation for middle-income to provide a balanced portfolio. Predominantly a premium home developer, Sinpas is well known for the unique concepts in its projects which target the upper-middle and upper income segments. In anticipation of the potential impact of the governments urban transformation project on the middle income segment, which is set to become the fastest growing segment in the medium term, Sinpas entered this high potential segment through its new brand, Eviya. The first project was launched under the Eviya brand, Ege boyu, in November 2011, and 30% of the 566 units were sold in just 2 months. While Ege Boyu had been developed as an upper-middle segment project with the aim of building strong brand equity in the first stage, Eviya will target the middle-income segment of the residential real estate market in its second project. We believe the widening in segmental diversification is positive for Sinpas as it provides flexibility in meeting changing demand conditions. Moreover, we calculate that the on-going and upcoming projects in Ankara will contribute around 13% to the value of Sinpas real estate portfolio. The on-going Incek Life project in Ankara has proved a success with a 83% pre-sales ratio. These initiatives should help compensate the negative impact of prospective over-capacity in Istanbul in the longer term. Conservative OPEX assumptions may provide further upside potential. Sinpas cash operating expenses increased from TRY26mn in 2008 to TRY80mn in 2012 despite a decline in the number of units pre-sold to 1,423 from 2,016; due to the penetration in new cities as well as tough competition between project developers. While we have assumed advertising expenses amounting to 5% of each years sales proceeds, we have forecasted a 6% rise in other cash operating expenses. Given that we do not factor in any further land acquisitions, our OPEX projections can be considered conservative, leaving room for potential estimate upgrades.

Investment Theme
We attach an Outperform rating for Sinpas, which is one of our two top-picks in the REIT sector. The stock, which currently trades at a 76% discount to its NAV versus the historic average of 57%, has underperformed by 48% in the past three years due to (i) the Companys working capital deficiencies as a result of in-house payment options with low down-payments and long maturities, (ii) investor preference of Emlak REIT, which offers a safer exposure to residential market, and (iii) delay of the expected project launches by one year. The perfect negative correlation between relative stock performance and mortgage rates - as shown in Figure 10 was disrupted in 2013. Although rates have hovered below their historic average of 10%, Sinpas shares have underperformed the index and Emlak REIT by 23% and 17% in YTD terms. The investor concerns had been warranted in the past. Sinpas business model proved a challenging one with mortgage rates hovering over 10% until beginning of 2013 with pre-sales ramping up from 766 units to 1,423 in 2010 - 2013 accompanied by declining cash inflows from TRY512mn to TRY402mn. Adjusted for the average unit size pre-sold from each project, the aggregate cash inflow generated by Sinpas was eroded from TRY5,052/sqm in 2010 to TRY2,095/sqm in 2012. As a result of working capital deficiencies from 2010-12, its net debt had piled up to TRY412mn as of 1H13, amounting to 50% of its average MCap in 2Q13.

On the other hand, we believe current stock prices reflect the above mentioned concerns fairly. At this stage, the stock offers an attractive valuation coupled with lucrative upcoming projects. Sinpas started the pre-sales of three of new projects in September; the high-end Istanbul project - Bomonti Time - on 50,983sqm saleable area and two in Ankara - The First and Ankara Incek Life Residence - on 115,701sqm saleable areas. 109 units from these projects have been sold in one month, implying a 12% pre-sales ratio. We expect Bomonti Time and The First projects to generate respective solid IRRs of 17% and 22%. Sinpas will start pre-sales of two additional projects (Istanbul Halkal Park and Ankara Buyukesat) on 145,674sqm saleable areas in 1H14. We calculate the net debt position of TRY338mn as of 13YE to turn into net cash position of TRY366mn, based on the assumption of no further land purchases. We understand that the bulk of the buyers currently prefer a newly proposed in-house payment plan with 30% downpayments due to 2.71pps rise in mortgage rates to 11.0% since the lowest level of 8.3% in June. We believe it is fair to apply this plan to all future sales since we expect the mortgage rates to stabilise around these levels over the next year. We calculate a TRY250mn working capital deficiency for FY14 due to TRY537mn construction expenses vs. TRY350mn in FY13. In 1H13, we have seen a recovery in the quality cash flows thanks to (i) the shift in new payment plans, increasing the down-payment ratio from 35% to 50%, and (ii) significant amount of collections from previous years pre-sales, which were due in 1H13. We estimate that the aggregate cash inflow (per unit area) from pre-sales tripled from TRY1,400/sqm in 1H12 to TRY4,136/sqm in 1H13. While we welcome these recovery signs, we lack the solid evidence that it will prove sustainable for FY14. On the the pre-sales financing for 9M13, the Management guides us that the bulk of home buyers have used mortgage loans with an aggregate down-payment ratio of 50% as monthly mortgage interest rates remained below 1.0%. Starting with the fall campaings, Sinpas has been offering new payment options. An in-house payment plan with c.30% down payment (number 4 in the table below) is the most widely used; hence, we apply it to all future sales. Effective payment options in 2013
Payment Plan 1 Introduction by Discount 4% Payment Plan 2 Through-out 9M13 none 80% - Down Payment (20% down payment + 60% interestfree mortgage with 60 monthly installments) 8% Payment Plan 3 Payment Plan 4 4Q13 none

50% - Through Interim Installments 3 yearly installments (respective 20%, 15% and 15%)

We have performed a sensitivity analysis to evaluate the impact of alternative payment plans on the working capital requirements and valuation as shown in the figure below. We take the 2nd payment plan, with 80% down-payments, as the bullish case and the old plan, with the 15% down-payment, as the bear case. The analysis demonstrate the huge impact of payment options on the valuation and estimates.

During difficult market conditions, Sinpas had offered flexible payment plans to its customers in a bid to maintain sales volume. The company had enjoyed lower mortgage rates in 1H11 (the monthly rate of 10-year mortgage loans had dipped to 0.80% at the beginning of 2011) and collected 50-55% of the payments in cash via mortgage loans. Due to the rise in mortgage rates to 1.25% in 2H11, the company started to offer new payment plans in 4Q11 (i.e. plans 2 and 3 as depicted in figure 14) and lengthened its collection period to 6 years, hurting cash flow quality. Sinpas was offering to buy through a 35% down-payment with the remaining portion to be paid in 55 equal monthly installments. This option had been chosen by around 70% of customers. Monthly mortgage rates remained above 1.0% in 2012, still discouraging home buyers from bank financing dominated payment plans with higher downpayments.

Company in brief Emlak REIT is the largest REIT in terms of MCap and NAV, estimated at TRY8.2bn as of 1H13. Established as a private company in 1953, Emlak had been acquired by a state bank (Emlak Bank) in 1990. It was granted the status of REIT and went to an IPO in December 2010. A second offering of TRY1.3bn shares is possible by 1H14. In accordance with the protocol signed between Emlak and TOKI, Emlak purchases land plots from TOKI at their appraisal values without a bidding process and tenders are undertaken on a revenue sharing basis. The Company also develops projects for the low-middle and middle income segments.

Attractive land purchases from TOKIs land bank. Successful land tenders; the RSM tender of 127,920 sqm land in Zeytinburnu to follow by December.
26
Investment Theme
We like Emlak (i) as a good proxy of residential market capturing the widest range of middle income customers, from lower to upper, and for (ii) its strong cash returns. Over the past ten years, Emlak produced 75,000 units in Turkey via RSM and public procurement model (PPM), the highest number in the sector following 600,000 units produced by the Housing Development Agency of Turkey (TOKI). The value creation comes from RSM model, which targets upper-middle income and applied for 80% of on-going projects, and is dependent on what terms Emlak acquires and tenders the land. Emlak generates significant revenues and margins thanks to a combination of having large plots on which more luxurious projects can be developed and the fact that Emlak provides a network to TOKI, through which zoning issues are more easily resolved and municipalities complete infrastructure services more rapidly. Its track record proves that Emlak generally collects even more cash than the guaranteed amount. Total gain from the completed projects Multiplier progression at RSM tenders

Multiplier
Emlak had 8.4mn sqm of non-tendered land and 2.6mn sqm of tendered land (2.2mn sqm via RSM and 441,000 sqm in PPM projects) as of 1H13. As 2013 has been proving to be a strong year for the residential market, Emlak has so far tendered seven land plots for TRY1,527mn, having a base value of TRY738mn, which implies a 2.07x multiplier. Based on a 13% WACC and the assumption that the proceeds are collected in three years, this multiplier translates into a 40% return for Emlak. The land plots were mostly acquired from TOKI at their appraisal value without a bidding process, or had been placed by Emlak Bank as capital in-kind in 2000. In the completed projects, we observed a 1.58x value appreciation during the tenders and a further 1.46x appreciation during the sales. In projects tendered but not completed, the initial increases in the tenders have so far reached 1.73x. The urban transformation program, which leads to the continuous evolution of the city layout, will undoubtedly have an impact on Emlaks business model. About 10mn residential buildings (90% of total) are standing on areas of high earthquake risk, and half of them are thought to be unstable. The urban transformation program allows the re-construction of these buildings in their original location. If that is not possible, home owners are encouraged to move to the reserve area, where new buildings will be constructed according to new zoning plans. This paves the way for 423mn sqm of land to be developed on the outskirts of the European side of Istanbul. To speed up the process, the Government refined the condominium law in a bid to simplify the process of re-construction of unstable buildings. Previously an apartment block could only be reconstructed if all of the home-owners voted for it, rendering the process difficult to finalise. The recently changed law has removed a barrier, with no only a two thirds majority of the owners required to provide their assent for
27
the re-construction. So far, around 50,000 units (homes or offices) in Turkey have been demolished within the scope of the urban transformation program a far cry from the aggressive target of millions. However, if the targets are achieved, a transformation of such an immense magnitude could step up the pace of sales in middle segment residential projects. This might include Emlaks PPM project sales as well, which the Company has been developing in less attractive locations for the low-middle and middle income segments. The impact on RSM type of projects is harder to estimate. In December 2012, Emlak signed a protocol with TOKI and the Ministries of Environment & Urban Planning and Transportation as well as Housing Development Administration of Turkey to have access to 2mn sqm of land in the reserve area. While additions to its land bank are possible at any time, we estimate that TOKI was holding 20mn sqm of land in Istanbul at the end of 2012, based on the statements of Minister of the Environment and Urban Planning. The city layout will spread northward towards the Black Sea over the next decade with the third airport planned to be in operational by 2019. The change in the mix of Emlaks land bank in favour of new settlement areas in the north, and away from the old city centres in the south may put downward pressure on the Companys returns since the upper middle income would be less willing to move to these underdeveloped regions. On the other hand, the Government recently passed a bill in May 2012 to ease the regulations pertaining to the sale of real estate to foreigners. Beforehand, citizens of the Turkic Republics, Russia and countries in the Gulf region were not permitted to own office or residential property in Turkey. Foreigners invested US$3bn in Turkish real estate between 2006 and 2008, US$1.9bn in 2009 and US$2.5bn in 2010. The industry players expect the easing of the law to pave the way for around US$10bn in annual investment. This target may prove to be aggressive, yet Emlak REIT has witnessed some contribution from sales to foreigners in 2012 (4.4% in total) and 2013 (4.3% in total), compared to no contribution at all beforehand.

1- On-going RSM projects, which account for 35% of the real estate portfolio, are those for which the tender and zoning plans have been completed. Construction permits for the majority of these developments have been received and, accordingly, sales have been initiated. We value RSM projects using DCF analysis on the basis of Emlaks share in total project revenues and unit sales assumptions. In terms of completed RSM projects, the final project value has historically averaged 1.46x of the tender value. In the interests of adopting a conservative approach, we have not incorporated any price escalation in our valuation. The Companys share in total revenues stood at TRY5,910mn as of 1H13 compared with the book value of TRY2,692mn. The management guides that the bulk of the units are pre-sold through mortgage loans at a 75% loan to value ratio. The contractors may provide a maturity of up to two years for the remaining 25%. For the sake of simplicity, we assumed that 100% of the sales amount is collected upon the pre-sales. On the other hand, we assume a more conservative pre-sales distribution for new projects (i.e. 25% each in four years) compared with a more aggressive distribution track record (i.e. 50% at t, 25% at t+1, and 25% at t+2).

2- While we have only incorporated forecasted cash inflows for RSM projects, we also have incorporated cash outflows in our DCF model for on-going PPM projects, as the Company carries the costs of the construction and OPEX of those projects. In general, the Company receives a 10% down payment in the sales of PPM projects, and the average term for the remaining instalments is around 120 months, with the instalment amounts adjusted at the rate of CPI increase each year. PPM projects account for 11% in the real estate portfolio. 3- Completed buildings are the unsold units in the completed projects. We have attached their appraisal values which contribute a mere 1% to the real estate portfolio. Upside potential under different multiplier scenarios

4- The total appraisal value of Emlaks 8,350,916 sqm of vacant land is TRY3,173mn. We incorporate a conservative 1.30x value multiplier over their appraisal value in our valuation, which is modest compared to 1.58x appreciation observed so far in terms of completed projects. The vacant land contributes TRY4,124mn (54% of the real estate value) to the SO-T-P valuation. Thus, the potential deviations between the realized value multiplier and our estimate of 1.30x would give rise to important deviations in our target price. Our analysis shows that the companys upside potential could vary by between 21 and 42pps according to the success of the tenders. Sales breakdown in 1H13 Sales from tendered projects

5- Emlak had sold 9,151 units in 2012, of which 8,355 were from the RSM projects. In 2013, we expect the company to sell 14,581 units, 75% of which being from RSM projects, and the remainder 25% from PPM projects. Thanks to a 59% increase in unit sales, we expect the companys cash flow generation from its projects to almost double in 2013.

Key Risks
The key risks are; (i) overhang risk due to potential stake sale from major shareholders Mehmet and Aziz Torun, who each hold 9.6mn listed shares (i.e.7.6% of the FF) and the sister company Torun Food owning the 35.3mn shares acquired from the IPO, (i.e. 28% of the free float), (ii) FX losses on the short FX position we estimate TRY102mn FX losses in FY13 vs. TRY49mn FX gains in FY12 and (iii) oversupply risk for shopping malls in big cities, despite our bullish expectations of domestic consumption growth (4.2% YoY in FY14). Aggregate footfall fell by 3% in LFL terms in 1H13, mainly due to the 9% YoY fall in the footfall of Torium in Istanbul.

Company in brief Torunlar REIT is the second largest REIT after Emlak REIT both in NAV terms (TRY2.8bn as of 1H13) and MCap. The Company held 223,000 sqm of GLA retail area and 237,000sqm of land at the end of 2012. The Company plans to invest a total of US$1bn in 2013-15 to expand its portfolio both in terms of GLA and mixed-used projects.

Improved economic outlook in FY14 should support the performance of rent generating retail assets. Torunlars operational performance is heavily dependent on the economic environment given that its real estate portfolio is focused on shopping malls. We anticipate 4.1% YoY consumption growth for FY13 to be followed by 4.5% YoY growth in FY14 on the assumption that volatility in financial markets gradually diminishes in the coming months. Torunlar charges its tenants a fixed rental fee on top of a turnover rent (expressed as a percentage of the fixed rent) and generates additional revenues from common areas. Note that 63% and 37% of rental revenues are generated in EUR and US$. Hard currency denominated revenues offer the Company a limited safety cushion since tenants require discounts in times of economic turmoil and sharp TRY depreciation. A more balanced portfolio should overcome potential struggles in the retail segment. At the end of 2012, 40% of Turkeys 8.6mn sqm of retail stock was located in Istanbul. With the projects under construction, this ratio should increase even further to 43% by 2015 (i.e. total GLA at 11.2mn sqm). Currently, 43% of Torunlar REITs shopping malls are located in Istanbul and the REIT intends to push this ratio to 67% by 2015. As it is clear that competition in Istanbuls retail market will become tougher by 2015, the Company has many residential and mixed-use projects in the pipeline in a bid to diversify risks by achieving a more balanced portfolio. Dividends from Yeni Gimat to rise. The CMB approved Yeni Gimats application to become a REIT. Yeni Gimat, in which Torunlar holds a 14.83% stake, is the owner of the 88,421 sqm Anka shopping mall in Ankara. Torunlar received TRY9.3mn of dividends in FY12 and Yeni Gimats exemption from the 20% corporate tax implies higher dividends for the Company.

Investment Theme
Torunlars portfolio is concentrated on rent generating retail assets; six shopping malls with an area of 220,599 sqm on a stake adjusted basis in five big cities. However, Torunlar is in the process of both (i) expanding its retail leasable space by 22% over the 2013-16 period to reach an area of 403,628 sqm, implying an expected 32% CAGR in rental and common area revenues and (ii) developing six residential and mixed-use projects on approximately 700,000sqm of saleable area. While we like the Companys growth story, we believe the prospects have already been priced-in to a large extent. The stock trades at a 36% discount to its estimated NAV, vs. its 45% historic average. While the management has more optimistic expectations for MoI and TT, we plug in more conservative assumptions to incorporate the challenging outlook facing Istanbuls shopping malls, leaving room for possible upgrades to our forecasts going forward. The tenants are expected to move in MoI, which is located on European side of Istanbul, by 1Q14 and to make the biggest contribution to retail rental portfolio by revenue (i.e. 49%) and profitability (3 pps rise in the NoI to71% levels). Their only current exposure in Istanbul is Torium, which is facing the most challenging competitive environment with four major shopping malls opened up in the same neighbourhood. That translates into the lowest occupancy rate (93%) and NoI (54%) for Torium vs. portfolio averages of 98% and 68%. The opening of MoI and Torun Tower should reinforce Torunlars presence in Istanbul and the steady cash flow generation, supportive of future cash dividends.
