Interest coverage ratio dropping
This is the sick dog of the REIT space.

On the C.C. trans script it said properties being sold were at 30% of IRF values and later refferred to a sale as " opportunistic" . " Read em an weep"

I wonder who the buyers are? Manji is getting over IFRS on his sales at Artis. 30% of IFRS with minimal marketing whiffs of a "friends and family special" Armoyan and his guys got an overwhelming endorsement with the vote. Time to clean up this mess.

I nearly dropped the phone when I heard it, and waited to read the transcript. "in some cases 30% (of IFRS) is a good number ".....

I think the key comment is they say they are 30%-40% inside IFRS value.

and what would you suggest the word " inside " means other than a deceptive word designed to make the truth cloudy.

The follow up question clarified it.

I don't think it clarified, since the questions just asks if it's 30% to 40% of the IFRS value, but could refer to what was said "decently inside". I just don't see how selling at 30% of the IFRS value would help in paying net debt down compared to just keeping it leased.

that's the frightening part. HR and Artis are both realizing full assessed values on their sales. This is some scary stuff. I want to know who the buyers are, and are they really at arms length.

As you say their valuations could be stale dated and there is a negative motivation to fix that.

Their average cap rate at IFRS is 8.07%. Selling at 30% lower than IFRS would mean selling at around 11.4% cap rate. Selling at 30% of IFRS value would mean a cap rate of 26.7 %.

Properties sold could have no tenants or few with high vacancy so the term cap rate would not apply as properties are operating at a loss.
