RioCan Real Estate Investment (REI.UN-T) has garnered mixed reviews from experts regarding its performance and potential. While some acknowledge the stability provided by its 5% dividend yield, there are concerns about the overall valuation and the economic climate in Canada, especially in the retail sector. The Canadian economy shows signs of softness, with a negative GDP number in Q2 and increasing consumer distress. Despite its flat performance over five years, RioCan maintains high occupancy rates and has a manageable payout ratio of 60%. Overall, while its distribution is perceived as safe, experts recommend cautious consideration and further research given the financial flexibility issues often associated with Canadian REITs.

Consensus

Cautious

Valuation

Fair Value

Similar

PLD

HOLD

The REIT sector is an over owned space so he would be careful. Trend is still upwards.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

(Market Call Minute.) Toppy valuation but a good diversified business.

COMMENT

Looking at this one. A class company in a very interesting field. Gives you good income and modest capital appreciation.

HOLD

Owns the debt but has never owned the equity. Payout is still above 100%. Expanding into the US. Fantastic management and team. If there is an economic event, his bet is that it will be in apartment buildings.

COMMENT

All of the REITs are hitting 52-week highs and all the commodity stocks are 52-week lows. Very stable business anchored through power centers and shopping centers. Growing their cash flow. Rents are going up and costs are going down. Easy money has been made. If and when we see rates back up, this will be a source of funds.

BUY

Largest REIT out there. Shopping centers in Canada, Texas. Return is 7% and they borrow at 4%. Thinks they will slowly raise the dividend. Thinks the yield is more than fine.

BUY

This is the largest REIT in Canada. It has been a steady mover with 2 steps up and 1 step down. Nice yield. As interest rates continue to decline or stay steady, this stock should do well.

BUY

Extremely high quality real estate company. Retail focused, primarily on big box centers with a high-quality tenant base. Reworking their US strategy and will continue to make progress there. Dividend is absolutely sustainable and will continue to grow over time. 5.1% yield is sustainable.

BUY ON WEAKNESS

Largest REIT in Canada making up 25% of the index. Largely enclosed shopping centers. At these levels, this offers you only about 8%-9% all in return, so he would be looking for a 4%-5% pullback before adding to his position.

DON'T BUY

800 Lb. gorilla in the sector. Has assembled a portfolio with a lot of scarcity value. Good occupancy and it held in 2007/2008. A lot of US retailers want to come up to Canada. Every time a tenant lease is coming up for renewal, they can increase the rent 10%. There is better total return elsewhere.

PAST TOP PICK

(Top Pick May 17/11, Up 9.00%) Reocan Bonds.

HOLD

Very high quality REIT. Highest traded REIT in Canada. Retail focused. On a market pullback, you can increase your position but she wouldn't buy right now. Good yield at just under 5%. Target stores entry into Canada will help them.

DON'T BUY

They are the giant of the sector. Large open spaced properties with Wal-Mart’s and Cineplexs. They are great retail property operators. Recently expanded to the US. Has always had problems with their valuation. He is worried about their exposure in the US. Prefers Boardwalk and Killiam

BUY

Great long-term buy. Probably a transitional year. 96% leased properties. But a lot of down properties could impact revenue this year. There is a lot of upside and they have always grown by acquisition. Likes that 50% of future acquisitions are probably in the US where there are better opportunities.

BUY

Is the largest retail strip mall REIT. Can’t grow more in Canada so are growing into the US. They will probably add value because you avoided the wipe-out over the last 3 years. Thinks it could go as high as 25% US. He owns the debt.
