Somehow we're still in an environment where everyone is dying for yield.
yield yield yield
Prob this phenomenon will only die down after the Fed hikes up the rates a few more times

A desire for yield without due consideration for the risks will always lead to trouble.......

These guys are overdue by a year and half now, and further extended by another half year. The old adage of "Extend, amend and pretend"?

And the reason give for 3 month extension on 20th Dec 2021 doesn't pass the smell test. How would minority lenders matter (or have big concerns) if the presumably majority lenders do not have? Wouldn't the majority lenders just take over from the minority lenders if the return/risk was favorable enough?

The trust is still in the green as it is only able to pay off its interest expenses. However, most of its properties are leaseholds and eventually will be zero.

If the loans become amortizing by nature (Principal+ interest) of 953 million on 30 years period, Dasin is able to finance it by not giving unitholders a distribution (annual distribution is 32.4mil) for the next 30 years. Its properties have a remaining lease of 16-35 years, with all except one expiring in the next 30 years. Two of its high value properties are expiring within in 21 years time

If banks do agree to a long term financing, they will probably be forced to take this route or risk the loans never being able to fully repaid within a shorter timeframe unless the trust does a cash raising exercise.

This is probably why the banks are pondering over the options. They could recall the loan early but Dasin is probably asking them not to as the cash raising pain is tremendous. The best case will be banks to structure it as an amortizing loan of 5 year blocks with a long term view that it is amortized down to zero in 30 years time.

The trust is likely zero value to unitholders with its annual distribution the only tangible returns they will ever see. Because once the leases all expire, the trust will have to pay for a lease top up when they do not have the cash for it

The trust has paused dividends. Occupancy rate has fallen. In addition, it has obtained a further 6 months extension for some loans.

Given that a large proportion of Dasin's borrowings are offshore floating rate in SGD at 1.31-1.82% as of end 2021. However, in the latest report as of end June 2022, it has risen to 1.53-2.53% indicating a 75-100 basis points increase. (see page 21 and 22). I can confidently say that at present moment as the loan is pegged to a floating rate, it should be running up another 75-100 basis points. This means higher interest expense and hence cutting dividends to conserve cash. They will not switch to a china loan as China's interest rates is still two times higher than Singapore's

This is likely the end of the trust dividends and it has to start using all its cash to repay debts. Good luck to those invested. It is now a $0 stock
