City Developments rated 'hold' by Kim Eng

Stock Name: CITYDEV
Company Name: CITY DEVELOPMENTS LIMITED
Research House: Kim EngPrice Call: HOLDTarget Price: 11.05



Kim Eng Research in an Oct 10 research report says: "CDL recently announced that it will take a 30% effective stake in a development acquired by Millennium & Copthorne (M&C) in Ginza, Tokyo. M&C owns the remaining 70% stake.

"The acquisition allows M&C to gain a strategic foothold in Ginza at what we believe is a reasonable price. Going into 2012, the potential slowdown in M&C's European (ex-London) operations is unlikely to have a significant impact on its bottomline.

"Given the strong likelihood of a recession next year, we see few positive catalysts to upgrade our call. Target price of $11.05, peggedat 15% discount to RNAV. MAINTAIN HOLD."
