Stock of the Day – BWP Trust (BWP)
BWP Trust is focused on warehouse/bulky goods retailing properties with relatively large site areas, high visibility from arterial roads and attractive demographics in surrounding areas. The portfolio is well diversified across most Australian states with the vast majority of properties being on long term leases to big box hardware chain Bunnings Group, a wholly owned subsidiary of Wesfarmers.
BWP Trust’s first half fiscal 2014 distributable profit rose 15% on acquisitions and to a lesser extent solid like for like rental growth of 2.8%. The interim result was in line with our expectations though other operating expenses were a little ahead of expectations and interest expense a little below.

The delay of settlement on recent acquisitions is a mild headwind to fiscal 2014 and 2015 earnings, though partly offset by lower expected debt balance. BWP has a strong and mutually beneficial relationship with Wesfarmers. This combined with highly successful key tenant should allow the trust to generate goo risk adjusted returns over the long term.
BWP Daily Chart (Source - Thomson Reuters)
Portfolio metrics remain strong with 99.3% occupancy and a seven year weighted average lease expiry. Net tangible asset or NTA backing increased 5% over the half to AUD 2.02 per unit on the back of property revaluation gains. Further gains are likely over the coming year on compression of capitalization rates and if solid rental growth is achieved from market rent reviews. We believe the stock is slightly overvalued at its current price and would review the stock at a later date.
