Jackson Teo asked 2 years ago

Should I monitor business trusts using dividend stock model or REITs model? I was trying to check EPS is Keppel Infrastructure Trust but it seems to be very low as compared to the dividends paid. Not sure if I’m doing things wrongly..?

Hi Jackson We never cover business trust here. Similar to REIT, business trust is different breed of animal. For business trust, you can try using Net Operating Cashflow instead of Earnings per Share when you're calculating the payout ratio as business trust like KIT tends to have higher depreciation and amortisation value. I believe KIT has calculated the payout ratio which you can search under their annual report.
