3Q18; rushing for mortgages and flats

This report launches our quarterly wrap on the operational statistics from the real estate development segment. It saw upbeat volumes in 3Q18, as clients enjoyed a gradual recovery in incomes, the extended offer from homebuilders, a local bottom in mortgage rates, and uncertainties associated with changing regulations. The stock performances overlook that, in our view, with the shares of listed developers down 24% YTD.

The area under construction grew 9% YoY to 131mn sqm, after three flattish quarters.

Mortgage rates lost 45bp YTD to a historical low of 9.4% in September. New issues of RUB 2.07tn in 9mo18 are already greater than for the whole of 2017.

Moscow registered deals went up 35% YoY and 32% YoY in 3Q18 and 9mo18, respectively.

Primary prices increased 9-12% YoY in Moscow and St Petersburg in 3Q18, while the secondary market remained generally flat.

Stock valuations contradict the impressive operations. The market capitalisation discount to NAV is at a historical high of 55-67%.

Consumer backdrop: no signs of a material improvement

In 3Q18, consumer budgets remained stretched, posting only a gradual recovery from a modest base. Clients remained price-sensitive and highly reactive to promotional activities. Inflation was at 3.0% YoY during the quarter, while the 7.4% YoY advance in real wages reported by Rosstat has not been reflected by the listed constituents of the consumer segment, which reported results worsening from July to September.

USDRUB volatility has direct implications for consumer behaviour in Russia and sales on the residential development segment. The local currency depreciated 11% YoY and 6% QoQ in 3Q18. Clients’ front-loaded inflationary expectations are one reason for the 8.6% YoY growth in the non-food retail categories vs. 3.2% YoY for food turnover.

Residential sales were solid in 3Q18, with primary deals in Russia up 6% YoY. Among the key support factors, we highlight the gradual recovery in consumption, accelerating sales launches, the bottom in mortgage rates having been tested, and FX volatility. Across listed names, blended sales surged 25% YoY as the largest players reacted rapidly to the favourable trend.

Mortgage market: going through the roof

The key rate in Russia had declined 25bp YTD to 7.5% as of September 2018. The mortgage rate followed the path and reached a record low blended level of 9.4% in 3Q18. The spread between the two rates has stabilised at 190bp lately and we see this as sustainable in the medium term.

The local bottom in the mortgage rates and clients’ view on the limited further easing sparked new mortgage origination in 9mo18. The total value surged 61% YoY to RUB 2tn, thus already overtaking the total figure for 2017. The market is consolidated: Sberbank and VTB accounted for 66% and 70%, respectively, of new issues in 3Q18 and 9mo18.

The share of credit sales in the results of public homebuilders has also reached an unmatched level of 55-65% in the mass-market segment. We see the share as capped at 80%, i.e. the level observed for peers at the developed markets.

The sales of listed developers were impressive, reflecting the overall strong market trends and are in our view the most appealing product among peers. LSR increased volumes 46% YoY in 9mo18, reflecting adjustments to real estate to target clients’ reduced budgets, the pressured comparison base, and the growing maturity of projects. PIK also surprised with a 6% YoY advance for 9mo18, outperforming the record 2017 sales for the segment.

The strong demand trends mainly reflect people’s desire to improve their living conditions and, to a lesser extent, investment purposes (10% of sales in 3Q18). The latest rental yields for housing were 5.9% and 6.8% in Moscow and St Petersburg, respectively, in 3Q18. Adjusted for taxes and utility costs, we consider this to be modest.

Residential prices: promising primary trends

In Moscow, primary prices increased 12% YoY in 3Q18 and YTD, supported by a spike in demand and gradually recovering household budgets. The secondary market is on a flattish trend and its premium to the primary market has been eliminated of late. The south and south-east regions demonstrated the most upbeat trends: they are significantly in the mass-market segment and have seen progress on large-scale projects and redevelopment areas through the construction stages.

In St Petersburg, primary and secondary prices added 9% YoY and 3% YoY in 9mo18. In the latest quarter, the growth rate was comparable for both segments at 8% YoY. Amid the recent pick-up on the secondary segment, its discount to the primary market in St Petersburg remains at a record high of 20%.

Listed residential developers were inflating LFL prices some 10% YTD with a gradual pace through the period. However, the greater focus on the less premium market offer caused a certain dilution, meaning a 3% YoY advance and 3% YoY correction for PIK and LSR in 9mo18, respectively. Etalon’s product mix is less volatile and the consolidated price increase for the period was 8% YoY.

Valuation

In the development segment, we see a significant divergence between the impressive operating results of listed companies and their share prices. Stocks are among the worst performers in Russia, losing 24% YTD.

Current market capitalisations imply record discounts to LSR’s and Etalon’s net asset values (55-67%). We anticipate both stories maintaining an impressive dividend payout in the short term, with yields of 9.3% and 12.2%, respectively.

PIK is less owned by foreign institutional investors and its valuations were less impacted by the YTD worsening in sentiment on RUB stories and the less liquid universe. We see the company completely deleveraging in the short term and increasing its dividend yields (3.8% in our forecasts).

We deem large scale developers as best positioned for the upcoming regulatory changes as they have better access to capital, a stronger market offer, and more efficient cash flow management. There are over

3,000 developers in Russia and we see the sector well positioned for consolidation, favouring the constituents of our real estate universe.

Investment Ratings

VTB Capital uses a three-tiered Investment Rating system for stocks under coverage: Buy, Hold, or Sell.

The three main ratings correspond to the next 12-month Expected Total Return (ETR), defined as the difference between the Target Price and the Last Price divided by the Last Price plus the expected Dividend Yield over the next 12 months. The correspondence is as follows (as of the publishing date):

BUY: ETR exceeds plus 20% or more HOLD: ETR is between zero and plus 20% SELL: ETR is less than zero

VTB Capital Research assures the correspondence between the active Investment Ratings and the aforementioned definitions at the time of the Target Price and/or Investment Rating revision. Between such revisions, day-to-day movements in the prices of financial instruments could result in a temporary discrepancy between the Investment Rating and the aforementioned definition. Analysts address such discrepancies based on their scale and duration.

UNDER REVIEW: In the event that significant information about an issuer is due to be announced or is expected to become public in the foreseeable future, or the analyst needs time to evaluate such information, which was announced recently, s/he might choose to place that issuer Under Review. This means that the analyst is suspending the previously published financial forecasts, Target Price and investment rating in order to review them while waiting for the impending information. As such, they are no longer valid and should not be relied upon.

RESTRICTED: In certain circumstances, VTB Capital is not able to communicate issuer ratings due to internal policy and/or law and regulations. In this case, any revision of the financial forecasts, Target Prices and Investment Ratings will be carried out only after the Restricted status is removed.

Notwithstanding the above, VTB Capital may from time to time issue investment recommendations predicated on a different time horizon (such as short-term trading recommendations) to that which is described above. Where VTB Capital issues such an investment recommendation, the use of an alternative time horizon for the purpose of formulating such investment recommendation might result in differences between such investment recommendation and any investment rating published in accordance with the Investment Rating system described above.

The below table details the distribution of VTB Capital’s Investment Ratings on the basis of the three-tier recommendation system described above.

As of 10 April 2016, the VTB Capital Ratings Distribution table accounts for all the instruments covered, rather than the companies covered. In instances where we provide a recommendation for more than one instrument issued by a company, these are now counted separately. This accounts for the increase in the number of ratings from the count as of 29 February 2016. A list of those companies for which we cover more than one instrument can be found at DoubleRecPLC20181031.pdf.
