Riyad Capital ("Fund Manager") has announced that Riyad REIT Fund has invested SAR 61.8 in a private closed-end Real Estate Fund that is income-generating and Shariah-compliant and managed by Riyad Capital.

The private real estate fund’s target size is SAR 3 billion, and the initial closing size is SAR 315 million. The fund term is twenty years, extendable for an additional five years.

The private real estate fund under investment consists of a diversified real estate portfolio of assets leased by institutions and listed companies, which enhances the quality of the fund's tenants. Furthermore, acquisitions in the private real estate fund would be financed by accepting cash and in-kind contributions in addition to bank facilities - obtained from Riyad Bank - in compliance with Shariah standards.

- Funds From Operations for the period SAR 35,140,432

- The yield for the period 2.1%

 

Please visit the below link for the Interim Financial Results:

https://www.riyadcapital.com/en/asset-management/public-funds/reits/riyad-reit

 

Riyad REITachieved total revenue of SAR 88,400,479 for the first half of 2020 compared to SAR 90,441,912 for the same period in 2019 (a decrease of 2.26%). The main reason for the decrease in total revenue is the decline in the hotels’ average occupancy rate and the closure of all hotel facilities such as meeting rooms and ballrooms due to the Covid-19 pandemic as hotel total income dropped to 39,562,243 for the period compared to SAR 56,544,079, a decrease of 30%. On the other hand, the REIT’s net income from investments in the United States of America increased to SAR 21,627,048 compared to SAR 1,362,200 for the same period in 2019, which mitigated the decline in total revenue for this period.

TheREIT's Funds from Operations (FFO) amounted to SAR 35,140,432 for theperiodcompared to SAR 41,214,908 for the same period in 2019 (a decrease of 15%) mainly due to the rise in cost of borrowing associated with new investments, and additional provisions for rents and precautionary measures against doubtful debts for the year 2020 reaching about SAR 5 million.

Net income fell to SAR 23,899,766 compared to SAR 33,644,216 for the same period in 2019 (a drop of 29%) due to the decline in funds from operations and the high depreciation costs associated with the increase in real estate investments.

It should be mentioned that the Fund Manager notices a gradual improvement in the real estate sector in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia following the end of the curfew and the return of commercial activity in the local markets, while the hospitality sector is demonstrating an improvement at a slower pace considering that hotel performance in Riyadh, Jeddah and Khobar is mainly related to the international commercial movement to and from the Kingdom and social activities, celebrations and conferences.

The REIT also continues to work at an accelerated pace and invest during the current period to start working on improvements and new additions to Burj Rafal Hotel, related to the conversion to the JW Marriott Hotel Riyadh, which is planned during the first half of 2021;and finalizing building permits required to start the renovation of the Hilton Hotel on King Fahd Road. The Fund Manager upgraded the building to become a DoubleTree Hilton Hotel instead of Hilton Garden Inn based on the property's capabilities and commercial location.

Riyad capital Announces a Material Development to Riyad REIT Fund
Riyad Capital acting as the Fund Manager of Riyad REIT announces that the fund manager is carefully monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the ongoing government efforts to manage and contain it.  Guidance on impact on the REITs revenues and income during 2020 will be highly dependent on the longevity of lockdown and travel restrictions.  Regardless of the duration of COVID-19’s impact on everyday life, we are taking proactive measures to maintain the stability of our business and ensure the continuity of operations.

Riyad REIT’s business model is diverse and is comprised of 4 main components: 1- Domestic Income Producing Real Estate Assets, 2- Investment in an International Real Estate portfolio which includes Income Producing Assets, 3- Domestic Operating Assets (Hotels), and 4- Repositioning Developments.   Our portfolio consists of 18 properties totaling 309,000 sqm. of leasable area located in eight cities in Saudi Arabia and the United States and occupied around by 150 tenants.  We believe each component will be impacted differently and have reviewed them independently.

(1) Domestic Income Producing Real Estate Assets: 10 Properties totaling 96,431 sqm. (31% of portfolio) and projected to generate 39% of Fund’s Gross Revenues in 2020.
 
- As of April 22, 2020, we have number of requests for waiver or deferment of rental payment until the curfew is lifted.  The total leasable area of these tenants totals 5,200 sqm. (less than 2% of total portfolio area) and the total revenue of the requested waiver/deferment is estimated at approx. SR 2,135,000 (less than 1.5% of Gross Potential Revenue).  The evaluation of these requests will be dependent on each tenant individually.  It should be noted that although COVID-19 has caused disruption to normal business activities, many tenants, and businesses continue to utilize office and retail space for remote working activities, delivery (F&B), and staff responsible for critical business operations. 

- As of April 22, 2020, one tenant, totaling 115 sqm. of space and approximately SR 60,000 of rental revenue (0.04% of total portfolio) has requested to terminate the lease.  The request is being reviewed and will follow the normal regulatory course of the lease agreement.

(2) Investment in an International Real Estate Portfolio which includes Income Producing Real Estate Assets consisting of 4 Properties totaling around 83,000 sqm. (27% of portfolio); area based on Riyad REIT investments allocation in these international opportunities.  International investments are projected to generate 27% of Fund’s Gross Revenues in 2020.

- As of April 22, 2020, there is no material impact on returns on international investments.

(3) Domestic Operating Assets (Hotels): 3 Properties totaling 124,241 sqm. (40% of portfolio) and are projected to generate 34% of Fund’s Gross Revenues in 2020.

- Riyad REITs investments in the hospitality sector is aligned with the tourism and entertainment objectives that serve as a cornerstone of Vision 2030.  We noted that hospitality would be a main beneficiary of the evolving trends that were taking shape in Saudi Arabia with the opening of the economy, opening of the tourism sector, and emerging entertainment sector.  The momentum witnessed in the hospitality and entertainment sector at the end of 2019 and beginning of 2020 reflected early signs of Vision 2030 taking shape.  The entertainment and F&B sectors generated significant activities, and hotels ran at notably higher occupancies.  Combined with G20 events in 2020, expectations pointed towards a very strong year for entertainment, leisure, and hospitality. 

- Operating assets are mostly dependent on daily occupancies which poses positive aspects, as well as challenges.  On the downside, operating hotel assets are very sensitive to disruptions in economic and leisure activities.  On the upside, these assets are well placed to lead a recovery when the economy opens up.  Operating hotel assets are not prone to longer term vacancy trends that could hit a rental property.  Therefore, the current pandemic conditions (travel restrictions, lockdowns in major cities, and drop in business activities) is expected to lead to material declines in anticipated revenue of operating assets.  The extent of these declines will be highly dependent on the duration of the current conditions.

- When evaluating the impact of the pandemic on operating hotel assets, it is also important to align projections with the seasonality of the hospitality sector. Historically, hotels in Saudi Arabia run at lower occupancy levels during Ramadan and summer months.  Depending on how long closures due to COVID-19 last, a bulk of the pandemic’s impacts could overlap with the historically lower hotel occupancy period – which could be a relatively positive outcome.  If closures extend beyond the summer months, hotel operating assets will begin losing revenue from the higher seasonality period – leading to lower projected revenues.

- Riyad Capital, the Fund Manager, along with hotel operating managers (Marriott, Ascott, and Boudl) are working together to implement strategies to stabilize the business in operating assets.  In addition to comprehensive property-level cost reduction initiatives, we are currently pursuing alternative sources of revenues by providing a home away from home for returning nationals, guests who are affected by border closures or people who have self-isolated.  These initiatives, and its impact on operating assets, will be more evident in the coming months and will continue to be evaluated. 

- In addition to operating initiatives that have been taken, we continue to use this period to facilitate property improvements plans on our flagship hospitality asset – Burj Rafal – as we progress towards the opening of JW Marriott Riyadh by Q4 2020.  

(4) Repositioning Developments: 1 Property totaling 5,900 sqm. (approx. 2% of portfolio).
 
- Alfursan Plaza is currently under redevelopment to position the asset as a Hilton property on King Fahad Road in Riyadh.  The property is anticipated to open in 18 months.  The property is well positioned at the center of Riyadh’s central business district, in very close proximity to Dr. Sulaiman Al Habib Hospital and multiple businesses.

- Current redevelopment plans are ongoing and we do not see disruptions in these plans.

- Due to the asset being a redevelopment, no revenues were projected for 2020, and therefore, there is no COVID-19 impact on the Fursan redevelopment.


In addition to property-level initiatives, we have also pursued overall fund-level initiatives.  We have taken prudent steps to increase cash reserves by targeting to distribute 90% of FFO – per CMA requirements – as opposed to full potential distribution. The cash reserve could serve as a cushion for operating assets if needed.  We have also requested a delay in financing expenses to the bank as per directives announced by Saudi Arabian Monetary Agency.  This should provide an additional cash reserve cushion towards any potential operating requirements.

With a strong, well-diversified asset and tenant base in attractive markets both domestically and internationally, we believe that Riyad REIT is well-positioned to continue generating cash flows as well as long-term value creation under significantly softer economic conditions due to the pandemic.  We will continue to evaluate and monitor the conditions and announce any material impacts as the situation evolves.
