Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Hi, this stock has been down since its IPO at US$13.00 two years ago. Is there any hope for this stock in 2024? This REIT is quite small, so for example, could Dream privatize it, as Brookfield did for BPY ? What is the financial picture (ratios)?. If I did sale for tax loss, is it worth buying back?
If I’m right, their financial results will be published tomorrow (May9). So please comment on their earnings. Thanks a lot.

Q: Good afternoon!
I would appreciate an update on your views about the residential arm of Dream. They seem to be doing well, but I was hoping you might help me spot any red flags here, or point out where I am not seeing the data correctly. My cursory review noted the following:
1) Debt to assets only 31.9%
2) Stock price at 50% NAV
3) Paid $10.5 distributions, out of $.18 FFO, which implies a payout ratio of only 58%, which seems low and I would think adds to some margin of safety for a small firm.
4) Actually are buying back stock, although minimally.
5) Dividend seems very good at almost 7%.

Thanks!
Paul
