Barlow’s Research Roundup: TD analyst sees buying opportunity in REITs
The Globe and Mail's research roundup describes TD Cowen analyst Sam Damiani's view that a pullback has created opportunities in Canadian REITs. TD's estimated sector price-to-net-asset-value ratio had fallen to 83%, from a recent year-to-date high of 93%. Those ratios depend on the firm's asset-value estimates, rather than confirmed sale prices for the underlying properties.
The same analysis reduced targets for 22 covered securities by an average of 6% and favored seniors housing and health care. It projected approximately 1.2% third-quarter growth in adjusted funds from operations per unit. The bullish interpretation accompanies lower price targets and remains an analyst forecast, not evidence that the projected earnings growth has occurred.
