Phillip Securities Research in a Sept 28 research report says: "In-line with our office sector downgrade from positive to neutral, we lower our assumptions on office rental of Keppel Land, from positive 2% to 0% growth in FY2012. The net impact on PATMI of FY2012 and FY2013 are relatively minimal at -0.4%.

"We adjust our rental assumptions on its office property and sales progress of the Sengkang residential project, the RNAV is lowered from $4.92 to $4.91. We also increase the discount to RNAV from previously 15% to 35% on the weakening economic outlook and office leasing market.
