02/1/2019 14:53	To be fair HSBC still have a price target quite a bit higher than the current price. Broker Forecast - HSBC issues a broker note on Hammerson PLC 2 January 2019 \| 08:40am StockMarketWire.com - HSBC today reaffirms its buy investment rating on Hammerson PLC [LON:HMSO] and cut its price target to 543p (from 618p).	hugepants	Read Full Thread Reply
02/1/2019 13:27	HSBC slashed its target price, saying most of Hammerson’s business was susceptible to risks from “a faster than ever-changing retail landscape where few practitioners seem confident of exactly where it is headed”. HSBC added that there was “little by way of an investment case that can be confidently proffered” for the firm adding that equity was pricing in “the possibility of the business failing, either financially or to meet its stated objectives”. “The refinancing of the group’s debt has been inordinately costly, the land grab of shopping centres has turned out to be ill-timed and having made an advantageously early move to gain a footprint in Spain that is now ‘on the table’ for possible divestiture to address gearing.” Both Hammerson and Intu have struggled this year as part of the general downturn that is afflicting the UK’s retail sector. In July, Hammerson announced plans to pull out of the retail -parks sector over the medium-term, increasing its disposal target for 2018 to £600mln as half-year pre-tax profits slumped £55.7mln from £289.7mln the year before. Meanwhile, Intu has said it will need to "substantially reduce” payment of dividends, starting with the final 2018 dividend, in November after a consortium led by billionaire shareholder John Whittaker had thrown out plans to buy the shopping centre owner due to market . How long before hammersons substantially reduce there payment of dividends.	777mason	Read Full Thread Reply

21/12/2018 10:57	A year before the last financial crisis hit many of the large UK REITS traded at fat NAV discounts. Some saw value, the reality turned out to be a huge value trap. I don't see any of the directors buying?. Unless there is a reason for this.	essentialinvestor	Read Full Thread Reply
21/12/2018 10:55	We valuers are great theorists. A valuation is an opinion; an informed opinion but an opinion nevertheless. We work on the assumption that if 'A' sold for xGBP then all other factors remaining constant 'B' would sell for yGBP. where all other factors are not the same we make notional adjustments and allowances to reflect the differences. There has been a mismatch between rents and capital value for some years now but because the investment market has remained buoyant valuers have focussed on that regardless. Now that the investment market demand for shopping centres is slowing and quite possibly non-existent, valuers are having to be be more cautious. But valuers cannot be as cautious as they would like because the whole quoted (and unquoted) prop-co sector would come a cropper. So instead they ease up the yield to what appears to be a more realistic level, even though that level is also possibly unattainable. Intu's bidders pulled out because their enquiries would have found a lack of appetite amongst investors for the bulk of Intu's assets. If and as HMSO's assets would not fetch anything like the reported NAV then basically HMSO becomes an income stock. I think i was doing well buying in again at 6% yield but now the share price is over 7% I reckon it is heading up to 9%-10%, in which case would be worth buying into.	trcml	Read Full Thread Reply
21/12/2018 10:50	Looking a bit grim here. I wonder where the shares would be without the buyback. The buyback is relatively massive at 10% of the market cap and they are now buying back at 50% of stated NAV. The NAV will come down but by how much. If it comes down 30% that's still £5.	hugepants	Read Full Thread Reply

10/12/2018 15:26	Hp, I'm questioning if that disposal target will be achievable at anywhere near acceptable valuations.	essentialinvestor	Read Full Thread Reply
10/12/2018 15:18	They are selling their retail parks. NRR are the retail park REIT and it keeps falling so I expect HMSO will be taking a biggish haircut on the book value.	hugepants	Read Full Thread Reply
10/12/2018 14:42	They are expecting to sell $1.4B of non-core assets by end of 2019. This amount dwarves the buyback so I'm not anticipating a fund-raising even worst case.	hugepants	Read Full Thread Reply
10/12/2018 14:31	If things get really ugly they may need to come back to shareholders for a fundraise come the next downtown. It's done now, but the buyback is a dreadful misjudgement. All just IMV only.	essentialinvestor	Read Full Thread Reply
10/12/2018 14:16	Not sure about that. They are buying back a meaningful amount at a massive discount to NAV. So its going to be quite effective. LTV is 37% which doesn't seem high for a property company.	hugepants	Read Full Thread Reply
10/12/2018 12:36	Mentioned at the time of the buy back announcement this was a significant error of judgement imv. They should have used that money to retire some debt. LTV may shoot up with falling asset values over the next couple of years. Where are the recent disposals??.	essentialinvestor	Read Full Thread Reply
10/12/2018 11:24	This stock isn't exactly flavour of the month! Clearly Mr Market does not believe the NAV. The lowest NAV figure I can see is 725p (NNNAV). They've been selling their retail parks at a discount so a NAV of maybe 650p is more realistic. Yield almost 7%. LTV 37%. The current £300M share buyback is significant given the current market cap and discount.	hugepants	Read Full Thread Reply
