Analyst Note
| Alexander Prineas |Stockland revealed fiscal 2023 funds from operations, or FFO, of AUD 35.6 cents per share, ahead of our AUD 33.4 cents per share estimate. Despite headwinds in the housing market, no-moat Stockland maintained an attractive 26% development margin in its residential development business. Distributions per security of AUD 26.2 cents per share were slightly ahead of our AUD 25.5 cents per share estimate. Time value of money and the beat of our 2023 estimates increases our fair value estimate by 3% to AUD 4.50. After a 25% rally since September 2022, Stockland securities aren’t as cheap as they were but still screen as slightly undervalued.
