R&I Upgrades to AA-/a-1+, Stable: Mitsui Fudosan Co., Ltd. Jun 13, 2018 Rating and Investment Information, Inc. (R&I) has announced the following: ISSUER: RATIONALE: Mitsui Fudosan Co., Ltd. Issuer Rating: AA-, Previously A+ Rating Outlook: Stable Commercial Paper: a-1+, Previously a-1 Mitsui Fudosan Co., Ltd. is a comprehensive real estate company with the strongest business development capability in the industry. For the leasing business, the company owns a large number of competitive office buildings. It also has an excellent capability to manage retail facilities and an extensive track record in property development projects. The earnings base for the business is thus robust. The management business can be evaluated as another stable source of earnings. In the property sales business, the earnings base for property sales to individuals is strong, backed by the business management capability that allows for minimizing the impact of market fluctuations. Property sales to investors also play a part in the extensive business development activities, with risks kept in check. Mitsui Fudosan is involved in several large-scale development projects in central Tokyo, which are proceeding as planned. Many of these projects are scheduled to be completed by FY2019 (the year ending March 2020), starting with the opening of "Tokyo Midtown Hibiya" at the end of March 2018. Based on the steady progress of leasing, R&I has judged that the earnings base for the leasing business was expanded further. Accordingly, R&I has upgraded the Issuer Rating to AA-. Debt is on the rise because of upfront investments in large-scale development projects at home and abroad. It will likely take time before the balance between debt and cash flow meets the level required for the AA rating category. Meanwhile, the company has an adequate debt-equity structure for the rating, and its buffer against asset value downside risk is sufficient if unrealized gains on rental properties are taken into account. Although large investments will continue, steady profit accumulation can be expected, and management has a strong commitment to maintaining a certain level of financial discipline. A deterioration in the financial balance is therefore unlikely. The primary rating methodologies applied to this rating are provided at "R&I's Basic Methodology for Corporate Credit Ratings" and "Real Estate". The methodologies are available at the web site listed below, together with other rating methodologies that are taken into consideration when assigning the rating. https://www.r-i.co.jp/en/rating/about/rating_method.html R&I RATINGS: ISSUER: Mitsui Fudosan Co., Ltd.
