what happened

Kuala Lumpur Kepong's Coalfields Retail Park may help lift future property sales at the Bandar Seri Coalfields township in Selangor, Malaysia, according to a note from Maybank IB analyst Ong Chee Ting, as reported by Market Talk. The mall opened on September 10 with nearly 85% occupancy, and 95% of its space is already committed. It is an important addition to KLK's integrated township.

The analyst estimates the township still has a remaining gross development value above 3 billion ringgit, while the mall's annual rental income is expected to fall below 30 million ringgit. Incremental profit from the mall could account for less than 1% of KLK's earnings. Maybank rates the stock a buy with a target price of 24.90 ringgit. The shares were up 0.4% at 20.16 ringgit.

why it matters

The mall's direct contribution to earnings looks modest, so the main relevance of the news lies in supporting township property sales. The pace at which the remaining project value, put above 3 billion ringgit, gets converted into sales is the key factor for the market to watch.
