<ul>
<li>A 99-year leasehold private housing site in Ang Mo Kio Avenue 1, opposite the Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park, has drawn 15 bids in a state tender. The highest bid of S$381.38m, or nearly S$1,118psf ppr, came from a 60:20:20 joint venture between UOL Group Ltd (UOL SP), Singapore Land Group Limited (SPLG SP) and Kheong Leong Company. This was 6.3% higher than the second highest bid of S$358.89m or S$1,052psf ppr from Titus Residential SG, a tie-up between City Developments Ltd (CIT SP) and MCL Land. Also bidding for the site was a tie-up between Far East Organisation, Sino Group and Sekisui House, which offered S$353.33m or $1,036psf ppr. UOL plans to develop a 24-25 storey project of more than 370 units that will enjoy unblocked views of the Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park, Lower Peirce Reservoir Park and Shangri-la Park landed housing estate.

Note that we have assumed a 10% DI retention for FY21E, the higher than expected 1Q21 DPU was due to a lower 1Q21 tax rate at 24.7% (vs. our projected 38.0%). Including 1Q21’s S$1.38m, total retained DI since 1Q20 has amounted to S$5.49m (or S$0.681c per Unit).
