Enlight Research and 1Partner Advisory initiate research coverage on EfTEN Real Estate Fund AS
In cooperation with 1Partner Advisory (1PA), Enlight Research published equity research on EfTEN Real Estate Fund AS (EfTEN; EFT1T). The report is attached to the release and can be downloaded on the Enlight Research and EfTEN Real Estate Fund AS websites. In the future, Enlight Research/1PA aims to publish two reports per year on EfTEN.
Kristjan Tamla, CEO, EfTEN Capital AS, ”It is a great honor that the most professional equity research house in the Baltics has initiated the coverage of the EfTEN Real Estate Fund AS. Enlight Research reports are highly appreciated by local as well as by international investor communities. It is encouraging to see that robustness of the EfTEN portfolio and EfTEN’s strategy of maintaining low leverage is now also validated by an independent third-party analysis. The Base case Fair value of 21.84 EUR per share indicates a nice upside versus the last trading price.”
Mattias Wallander, Enlight Research, “Exciting to initiate coverage on our first real estate company. The merger of EfTEN Real Estate Fund AS and EfTEN Kinnisvarafond AS at the turn of the year created a joint fund with a meaningful size to initiate the coverage. The real estate sector has gone from in to out of fashion, which creates long-term opportunities. 1PA experts’ input on valuation makes you realize that a high P/BV ratio does not automatically mean it is expensive and vice versa. You must value each property and consider LTV and re-financing etc. I believe our cooperation with 1PA resulted in a high-quality report.”
Mihkel Pärtel, 1Partner Advisory, “It was interesting to work alongside with Enlight Research and EfTEN to publish real estate company coverage. We believe EfTEN’s well diversified portfolio is prepared to interest climate change and is resilient in different business cycle phases. EfTEN has kept a conservative asset acquisition pattern which leads to higher yields compared to peers. Conservative book valuations keep enough room for growth when acquisition yields trend lower again in better investment climate. Low LTV’s combined with modest book valuations keep the portfolio on right track to steer through current economic cycle.”
