Probably, next AGM, coming month, takda issue anymore :)



Question 1:
Please clarify the persisting Practice Note 19 (non-compliance with the public shareholding
spread requirement) status of the Company under the Main Market Listing Requirements
(“Listing Requirements”) of Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad (“Bursa Securities”), and
the implications it shall have on the Company?

Response by Mr. David Aw, General Manager of Corporate Strategic Management:
The Company is currently short by less than 1% to meet the required 25% public
shareholdings spread requirement under the Listing Requirements. The Company has put
in place a multitude of strategies and efforts which has resulted in an increase from 14%
to almost 25% within a time frame of three (3) to four (4) months. The Company shall
continue talks with public investors to close this gap as soon as possible.
At this juncture and in this light, Mr. Leo raised the following query to the Board:
Question 6
Is there a time frame involved in this given situation before Bursa Securities decides to
take action?
Response by Mr. David Aw, General Manager of Corporate Strategic Management:
The Company has obtained an approved extension of time up to 4 August 2019 after
which, the Company shall proceed to re-apply for a further extension of time. We are
hopeful that Bursa Securities will grant us further extension of time as the public
shareholdings spread has improved considerably sin the last approval.

Don't panick :)


Prospects for the next financial year
The property sector saw a marginal uptick in transaction in the 2nd half of 2019 pursuant to the Home
Ownership Campaign initiated by the Government to increase first-time home ownership. The
outlook for the Group remains positive given that the Group is expecting to launch a new phase at
Cybersouth by the first quarter of 2020. This will be followed by a few more new launches for the
rest of 2020 across several projects. The Group’s landbanking efforts in 2018 will also bear fruit in
2020 as the Group is targeting to launch the first phase of the newly acquired land in Subang Jaya
by the first half of 2020. The Group’s focus will remain at residential properties that are priced
between RM250,000 and RM750,000, with some commercial units to complement the completed
projects.

12
MARCH
2020
277,000 SMEs; 27,000 allied businesses and jobs created underline Ayala group’s growth
Makati, Philippines – March 12, 2020 As Ayala Corporation caps its 185th founding anniversary, its network of 227,000 small medium enterprises (SMEs) and allied businesses of some 27,000 partners and suppliers across the group are recognized as pillars in its continuing growth story.



“Beyond our products and services, our businesses create multiplier effects for society and the economy. Our group creates employment opportunities for a broad segment of Filipinos-- whether professionals, skilled or unskilled---as well as various entrepreneurial opportunities for many micro, small, and medium businesses. With the Ayala group’s unique attributes in diversity, scope, and brand equity, we are fortunate to have the ability to contribute to providing livelihood opportunities with scale and serve as catalyst for economic and social progress for many communities throughout the country,” noted Ayala Chairman and CEO Jaime Augusto Zobel de Ayala.



More than half of these 227,000 unique SMEs within the Ayala network, partner with Globe for their data transaction needs and various ICT solutions to run their daily business operations.



Another 100,000 enterprising Filipinos are already growing their business ventures with BPI’s Banko through zero collateral, low interest loans of up to ₱150,000 and sound financial advice.



An estimated 1,000 SMEs are also doing business in 35 AyalaLand Malls nationwide and some subcontractors at the Makati Development Corporation that build sustainable residential and commercial spaces.



According to a DTI report, micro small medium enterprises (MSMEs) are becoming a significant contributor in the Philippine economy. They make up 99.5% of the businesses in the country where 60% are micro entrepreneurs with annual revenues of less than P10 Million. MSMEs employ 63% of working Filipinos and contribute to 35% of the country’s GDP. Ayala supports the growth of the MSMEs in the country.



In addition, some 27,000 suppliers and partners across the Ayala group continue to benefit from the income derived from Ayala’s diverse businesses. All these economic activities aim to include as many players as possible creating more income generating prospects and jobs.



The Ayala group reported 71,823 total direct hires in 2019, up 19% from 2018. Ayala’s suppliers and SME partners are part of the country’s most productive citizens. The Philippine Statistics Authority estimates the country’s employment rate at 94.9% at December 2019.



Ayala’s net income in 2019 reached ₱35.3 billion, which included divestment gains from AC Education and AC Energy. The strong consumer-driven growth of Ayala Land, BPI, and Globe lifted Ayala’s bottomline during the period.

About Ayala
Since 1834, we at Ayala have been the country’s long standing partner in its pursuit for progress and nation building. We have been developing businesses that transform industries, challenging the status quo, and bringing innovations here in the Philippines and abroad that contribute to the nation’s social and economic agenda.

We constantly look for possibilities in the market to drive advancement. We see challenges as opportunities and tackle problems differently. We explore new dynamic business models and introduce pioneering products and services. We empower our leaders and employees to take initiative and make an impact in everything we do.

Because no matter what business we enter, our goal isn’t just to succeed, but to reinvent the way things work to change people’s lives for the better.

As a group, Ayala aims to meet the Filipinos’ evolving demands by providing practical solutions that balance quality and affordability. We have ventured into areas that touch on the basic needs of Filipinos—from building sustainable communities throughout the country, to widening access to financial services, improving connectivity, providing clean potable water, and expanding beyond our shores to cater to the needs of a globalized economy.

In recent years, we have taken a more deliberate approach to integrating the needs of a wider ecosystem into our business plans and in our continued symbiotic relationship with our stakeholders. We diversified into sectors that are going through important social and economic transformation and are critical to sustaining our country’s economic progress—industrial technologies, hard infrastructure through power and transport, and social infrastructure through healthcare and education.

From today, our emerging businesses will take on a unified brand identity, where they establish a clear connection to Ayala, while having the space to grow as they become industry leaders in their own right. Collectively, AC Industrials, AC Energy, AC Infra, AC Health and AC Education will further drive innovation, synergy and dynamism for the Ayala group.

We see potential.

While others see challenges, we see potential in markets that are not being served well and become the drivers for its transformation. When we see the potential to make a difference, we challenge convention.

We make businesses better.

We believe that success in business requires constant work, and the work lies in its people doing things the right way to generate trust. This trust allows businesses to further develop and create a bigger impact that brings about greater change.

We improve lives.

We are fueled by the hopes and dreams of others, and are committed to giving people the opportunity to lead improved lives. By making good business that doesn’t just focus on returns, we contribute to the communities that we serve, and ultimately to the country as a whole.

With our decisions and actions guided by these three principles, Ayala is making a wider, more sustainable, impact in crucial fronts for progress, intent on accelerating the future for Filipinos.


Mission
Anchored on values of integrity, long-term vision, empowering leadership, and with a strong commitment to national development, Ayala fulfills its mission to ensure long-term profitability and value creation. Ayala creates synergies as it builds mutually-beneficial partnerships and alliances with those who share its philosophies and values.

Vision
We will be the most relevant, innovative and enduring Philippine-based business group, enabling shared value and prosperity for the many stakeholders we serve.


A culture of empowering leadership has encouraged some of the most strategic, dynamic and imaginative talents to thrive as Ayala’s leaders, navigating our course towards a more relevant and sustainable business.

FEB 13, 2020
Ayala Land continues to expand in new growth centers
For the second consecutive year, Ayala Land, Inc. (ALI) surpassed its P100 billion capital expenditure (CAPEX) target as it continued to invest in new mixed-use developments across the country. CAPEX in 2019 reached P109 billion equivalent to 64% of gross revenues.
“We continue to serve new areas in the country and reach out to a broader market with more affordable products. This is in line with our mission to enrich the lives of more Filipinos. Furthermore, we continue to invest in all our existing estates which help spur economic activity in their respective localities,” said Bernard Vincent O. Dy, ALI President and CEO.

New project launches
ALI launched P158.9 billion worth of property development projects and P15.1 billion in malls, offices, and hotels resorts in 2019 as it continued on its thrust to build sustainable, integrated, mixed-use communities across the country.

The company also continues to extend its reach to serve the broader housing market. Its Avida, Amaia and Bellavita residential brands delivered 11,476 units in 2019 and have, over the last five years, increased its delivered units by 28% year on year.

Among ALI’s major launches for the year was Cresendo in Tarlac – ALI’s 29th estate to date. The company invested P18 billion to develop the 290-hectare “new downtown” in Tarlac, which is three kilometers from the Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway (SCTEX) and MacArthur Highway. A 32-hectare industrial park for light to medium industries and a commercial row of shophouses are poised to jumpstart local business and employment in the area. To promote skills-building among Tarlac’s young population given the potential employment opportunities, a Don Bosco Technical and Vocational School is set to open by 2025.

The company also launched the 120-hectare Broadfield which was planned as a new commercial and industrial district in Binan, Laguna. Seeing potential in enhancing fully built-up areas with smaller community hubs, ALI also introduced The Junction Place, an 11-hectare pocket urban development located in the Novaliches-Quezon City area.

Job Creation
ALI’s developments nationwide have contributed to sustaining existing construction jobs and creating new employment opportunities. Jobs related to construction activities totaled over 60,000 in 2019. Based on previous reports by the company, the impact of its developments generates an estimated 200,000 direct and indirect jobs.

Financial and operating results
Ayala Land’s net income grew 13% to P33.2 billion while total revenues reached P168.8 billion, a 2% increase driven by office, and commercial and industrial lots sales, and supported by higher contributions from new leasing formats.

Property development revenues reached P117.6 billion while sales reservations amounted to P145.9 billion, 3% higher than last year as ALVEO and Avida brands registered growth in reservations. Meanwhile, newly opened malls, offices and hotels drove the expansion in commercial leasing revenues which increased 13% to P39.3 billion.

Shopping center revenues grew 11% to P22 billion on the back of increased contributions from Ayala Malls Feliz, Capitol Central and Circuit Makati. ALI opened three new shopping centers during the year with a total gross leasable area (GLA) of 213 thousand sqm, increasing its malls footprint to 2.12M sqm.

Office revenues totaled P9.7 billion, a 12% uplift from the improved performance of office assets in Ayala North Exchange, Vertis North, and Circuit Makati. Total office GLA reached 1.17M sqm from the completion of Ayala North Exchange BPO Tower, Manila Bay BPO Tower and Central Bloc Corporate Center 1 in Cebu.

Meanwhile, revenues from hotels and resorts advanced 19% to P7.6 billion on strong patronage of Seda Ayala Center Cebu and Seda Lio. 797 rooms were opened to the public this year bringing total hotel and resort rooms to 3,705.

REIT pioneer
Ayala Land, through its real estate investment trust (REIT) vehicle AREIT, Inc., became the first Philippine company to file for listing at the Securities and Exchange Commission last February 7, 2020. This move reflects the company’s commitment to provide Filipinos with options to invest in high-quality, income-generating assets. ALI’s initiative to establish the first REIT reflects its confidence in the local economy, and with it hopes to pave the way for the development of a healthy and sustainable REIT market in the country.

Ayala Land files for PH’s first REIT; broadens investment options for Filipinos
[7 February 2020] Ayala Land, Inc.’s (ALI) subsidiary, AREIT, Inc., filed its application for a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) offering to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), following the release of the Revised Implementing Rules and Regulations (IRR) of Republic Act (RA) No. 9856, or the Real Estate Investment Trust Act of 2009 last January 20, 2020.

The REIT Act, passed by Congress in 2009, allows REIT companies to list and trade its shares of stock in the Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) as an alternative means to raise funds for property development and expansion initiatives. The REIT is a new asset class that provides investors with dividend-based income, inflation protection, and portfolio diversification. It broadens investment options for Filipinos, opening the opportunity to own a stake in high-value real estate assets in the country.

Ayala Land’s initiative to pioneer REITs in the Philippines reflects its confidence in the local economy. Through this initial capital market transaction, ALI hopes to pave the way for the development of a REIT market in the country, bringing another milestone to the Philippine stock market. The company seeded AREIT, Inc. with Grade A office assets located in Makati CBD and is expected to expand its portfolio with new acquisitions in the future.

ALI seeks to do an Initial Public Offering (IPO) of AREIT, Inc. after receiving the regulatory approvals from the SEC and the PSE.

Ayala Land is Institutional Investor’s most honored company in the Philippines
For the second year in a row, Ayala Land, Inc. (ALI) has been named Institutional Investor’s Most Honored Company in the Philippines in its 2019 All-Asia Executive Team survey. The awards cite the top companies around the world for their corporate leadership and investor relations expertise, as voted on by the buy and sell-side analyst community.

ALI ranked Best in Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) and Socially Responsible Investment (SRI) Reporting, and Best in Corporate Governance, while Mr. Augusto Bengzon was named Best CFO. In addition, the global financial community ranked ALI among the top in the categories of Best CEO, IR Professional and IR Company.

A total of 1,862 buy-side individuals and 629 sell-side analysts participated in the 2019 All-Asia Executive Team Honored Companies survey. The 1,611 companies nominated across 18 sectors this year were rated on core areas that focused on accessibility of senior executives, IR team capabilities, timely disclosures and responses, corporate governance, and ESG/SRI reporting among others.

“We thank the investment community for their continuing trust and confidence. This year’s survey results only encourage us to further improve on our Environmental, Social, Governance and Investor Relations initiatives to be at par with, if not exceed, global best practices”, said ALI Chief Finance Officer Augusto D. Bengzon.

Institutional Investor has been a leading international business to business publisher for over 50 years now, remaining focused primarily on international finance through premium journalism, newsletters and research. It also runs conferences, seminars and training courses and is a provider of electronic business information through its capital market databases and emerging markets information service.

Ayala Land was recognized as the Most Honored Company by Institutional Investor in its 2018 All-Asia Executive Team survey. Moreover, it topped last year’s survey for Best Investor Relations Company and Best CFO, and ranked highly in the ESG/SRI Metrics, Corporate Governance and Analyst Days lists.

Ayala Land Offices opens 2nd coworking space in Makati CBD

Clock In Ayala North Exchange’s doors are open to various end-users—from students, freelancers, and creatives to start-up entrepreneurs and multinational corporations.

MANILA, Philippines — With the changing times beginning to unfold before us, flexible workspaces will continue to complement the way we work and conduct businesses.
“2019 will be a defining year for the flexible workspace sector in the Asia Pacific, as it emerges from a period of impressive expansion to enter a new phase of maturity and evolution,” reported global real estate service company Colliers International in its Flexible Workspace Outlook in 2019.

“With tenant experience becoming the cornerstone of a commercial real estate strategy, operators will raise the bar for design and innovative amenities, transforming flexible workspaces into lifestyle destinations in their own right,” the report also shared.

Colliers said that it is clear that the growing number of flexible working spaces in the Asia Pacific should contribute to the vibrancy of the region’s commercial real estate markets throughout 2019, and for years to come.

The global real estate service company noted key trends in the market: amenities to become part of the building fabric, design to scale new heights, products to push the boundaries, and consolidation set to pick up. Ticking all these boxes is Ayala Land Offices’ (ALO) Clock In.

Ayala Land’s office leasing arm first entered the flexible workspace landscape in March 2017 with a Clock In center at the penthouse of the Makati Stock Exchange Building.

“We saw the need for flexible workspaces, and since Ayala Land has the largest inventory of office spaces in the country, we created a product that can address the need for large corporations as well as small to medium-sized enterprises. Clock In fosters innovation, collaboration, and synergies with its spaces. With flexible lease terms, it can cater to the needs of both multinational companies and start-up companies alike. Our breakout areas are ideal spaces for members to collaborate and exchange ideas,” Carol Mills, president of ALO, told The STAR, adding that the coworking seats are available for daily and even hourly use.


Clock In also has monthly events called After Hours, where notable speakers share their expertise on various topics from business talks to personal interests.

In three years, Clock In has successfully opened eight centers in major business districts in Makati City, Quezon City, Bonifacio Global City, Pasig City, Alabang, as well as budding locations outside the metro, such as in El Nido, Palawan.

Recently, it opened its second hub in Makati, on the third floor of The Shops at Ayala North Exchange. It is the biggest center yet suitably set at the heart of Makati Central Business District (CBD) and key gateways, Ayala and Sen. Gil Puyat Avenues. It is also connected by an elevated walkway to Ayala Center and the rest of Makati CBD.

“Everybody wants to be in the center of everything. Most people want to work close to where they live. Here in Clock In Ayala North Exchange, our center is located within a mall where we have restaurants and more. There are also residential areas nearby. It is also important to have access to everything that you need. Makati CBD is a walkable city so you’ll avoid being stuck in traffic. This can translate to having more time for quality work, and more importantly, have more time to be with your family or friends,” Lala Comia, general manager of Clock In, said about the newest location.


Its strategic location widely opens Clock In Ayala North Exchange’s doors to various end-users—from students, freelancers and creatives to start-up entrepreneurs and multinational corporations. “Our tenants are a mix of individuals, small and big companies, and we love the fact that they are forming synergies and partnerships with each other. What they like is that they can interact with different business groups and get fresh perspectives. This is something we aim to foster in all our centers,” Comia said. Following the lead of its other well-engineered centers, it runs a streamlined pop art design to boost and balance comfort, productivity and collaboration among workers. Backed by innovative architecture, the 1,515-square-meter space has private office suites, coworking spaces conducive to any working style, reliable virtual office plans, fully-equipped meeting rooms, breakout areas, and an event space ideal for various types of gatherings.


Evolving from the traditional office environment, Clock In Ayala North Exchange also has a pantry with unlimited coffee and tea, napping pods, a gaming area with board games, even stationary bikes. Catering to every need, it offers high-speed internet, admin and IT services, and office maintenance to help businesses run smoothly.

Ayala Land continues to expand in new growth centers
For the second consecutive year, Ayala Land, Inc. (ALI) surpassed its P100 billion capital expenditure (CAPEX) target as it continued to invest in new mixed-use developments across the country. CAPEX in 2019 reached P109 billion equivalent to 64% of gross revenues.
“We continue to serve new areas in the country and reach out to a broader market with more affordable products. This is in line with our mission to enrich the lives of more Filipinos. Furthermore, we continue to invest in all our existing estates which help spur economic activity in their respective localities,” said Bernard Vincent O. Dy, ALI President and CEO.

New project launches
ALI launched P158.9 billion worth of property development projects and P15.1 billion in malls, offices, and hotels resorts in 2019 as it continued on its thrust to build sustainable, integrated, mixed-use communities across the country.

The company also continues to extend its reach to serve the broader housing market. Its Avida, Amaia and Bellavita residential brands delivered 11,476 units in 2019 and have, over the last five years, increased its delivered units by 28% year on year.

Among ALI’s major launches for the year was Cresendo in Tarlac – ALI’s 29th estate to date. The company invested P18 billion to develop the 290-hectare “new downtown” in Tarlac, which is three kilometers from the Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway (SCTEX) and MacArthur Highway. A 32-hectare industrial park for light to medium industries and a commercial row of shophouses are poised to jumpstart local business and employment in the area. To promote skills-building among Tarlac’s young population given the potential employment opportunities, a Don Bosco Technical and Vocational School is set to open by 2025.

The company also launched the 120-hectare Broadfield which was planned as a new commercial and industrial district in Binan, Laguna. Seeing potential in enhancing fully built-up areas with smaller community hubs, ALI also introduced The Junction Place, an 11-hectare pocket urban development located in the Novaliches-Quezon City area.

Job Creation
ALI’s developments nationwide have contributed to sustaining existing construction jobs and creating new employment opportunities. Jobs related to construction activities totaled over 60,000 in 2019. Based on previous reports by the company, the impact of its developments generates an estimated 200,000 direct and indirect jobs.

Financial and operating results
Ayala Land’s net income grew 13% to P33.2 billion while total revenues reached P168.8 billion, a 2% increase driven by office, and commercial and industrial lots sales, and supported by higher contributions from new leasing formats.

Property development revenues reached P117.6 billion while sales reservations amounted to P145.9 billion, 3% higher than last year as ALVEO and Avida brands registered growth in reservations. Meanwhile, newly opened malls, offices and hotels drove the expansion in commercial leasing revenues which increased 13% to P39.3 billion.

Shopping center revenues grew 11% to P22 billion on the back of increased contributions from Ayala Malls Feliz, Capitol Central and Circuit Makati. ALI opened three new shopping centers during the year with a total gross leasable area (GLA) of 213 thousand sqm, increasing its malls footprint to 2.12M sqm.

Office revenues totaled P9.7 billion, a 12% uplift from the improved performance of office assets in Ayala North Exchange, Vertis North, and Circuit Makati. Total office GLA reached 1.17M sqm from the completion of Ayala North Exchange BPO Tower, Manila Bay BPO Tower and Central Bloc Corporate Center 1 in Cebu.

Meanwhile, revenues from hotels and resorts advanced 19% to P7.6 billion on strong patronage of Seda Ayala Center Cebu and Seda Lio. 797 rooms were opened to the public this year bringing total hotel and resort rooms to 3,705.

REIT pioneer
Ayala Land, through its real estate investment trust (REIT) vehicle AREIT, Inc., became the first Philippine company to file for listing at the Securities and Exchange Commission last February 7, 2020. This move reflects the company’s commitment to provide Filipinos with options to invest in high-quality, income-generating assets. ALI’s initiative to establish the first REIT reflects its confidence in the local economy, and with it hopes to pave the way for the development of a healthy and sustainable REIT market in the country.

mct gets funding from its ultimate holdings company ayala corp which owns the second largest bank called BPI in the philippines. the safest property stock in malaysia probably.. During this time, safer to part your money with solid companies without cash flow problem and also profitable like MCT... a subsidiary of the largest and oldest conglomerate in the Philippines :)

victor, you keep on promoting MCT, are you holding a lots of MCT share?

Posted by DickyMe > 2020-03-12 18:39 | Report Abuse

Victor is a bogus name.
Of course people who have interest in the company and stuck with their investment will promote day and night.

The strategy is to attract gullible investors to offload their pain.

normally, after stk market crash like now, worldwide also, last thing on ppls mind is to buy property.

at 16 sen, fallen way below 200sma line of 27.2 sen, will need some time to recover, safer to exit/ wait for market to stable first.
its a bear market now, cheap can be cheaper..

I agreed with you, US dropped 2k plus points yesterday, this could be a longer term disaster, if you are not cash rich better dont touch. I should have thrown this counter once it broke below 30 cents but I choosed to believe its fundamental but all the way dropped till 16 cents...this counter really no strong support, recently dropped below another strong support which is 20 cents level. I sold all my counters weeks ago but thought this has stronger result thus keep it. It may rebound months or years later but I think I have to cabut first, overall market is too weak and too many bad news around
