Shang Properties, Inc. (SHNG) at 2.72 now yields 5.75% after a new round of cash dividend

In April 2020 at the height of the community quarantine, Shang Properties, Inc. (SHNG) distributed a cash dividend of 0.11250 a share. Based on the preceding years, SHNG also distributes dividend every September at a rate of .07 a share. This year SHNG’s second round of dividend amounted to 0.044 a share. In all, the total for 2020 SHNG cash dividend will be 0.1565 a share.

With SHNG market valuation slumping, SHNG now yields 5.75%. A very attractive yield for dividend investors.

In the first half of 2020, SHNG was able to earn a net income of 700 Million Pesos, understandably that would be down as compared to the same period in 2019. At the height of the community quarantine, SHNG was able to generate cash from operation of 541 Million Pesos. SHNG even was able to pare down debt with its own cash balance.

In these times, SHNG’s primary source of cash generation will be the office space rentals from the Enterprise Center, an office building located at Ayala Avenue corner Paseo De Roxas in Makati City operated by KSA Realty Corporation which it controls; car park rentals; hotel operations; and property management fees from its upscale condominium developments. SHNG also has built-up upscale property units available-for-sale. They can generate revenues from those units too.

From Meralco to Rockwell: How the Lopezes Restructured to Put Rockwell Land Under FPH’s Control

The Big Picture In the span of just a few years, the Lopez family executed a complex corporate restructuring that shifted Rockwell Land Corporation firmly under First Philippine Holdings Corporation (FPH) —even as they parted with “precious” equity in Manila Electric Company (Meralco) to make it happen. The strategy wove together property dividends, special block sales, and the monetization of legacy assets, ultimately consolidating one of the Philippines’ most admired property brands inside the Lopezes’ flagship holding company. Laying the Groundwork (1996–2009) Rockwell began as First Philippine Realty and Development Corporation and was rebranded Rockwell Land in 1995. A pivotal capital infusion in September 1996 brought in three major shareholders— Meralco , FPH , and Benpres (now Lopez Holdings) —setting up a tripartite structure that would endure for more than a decade. By August 2009 , the Lopezes made a decisive move: Benpres sold its 24.5% Rockwell stake...

ABS-CBN Faces Financial Crisis as TV5 Exits Over ₱1B Dispute: Why Lopez Group Must Use Its ₱50B Windfall to Rescue Its Media Flagship

TV5’s termination of its partnership with ABS-CBN over a ₱1 billion payment demand exposes deep financial cracks. With ₱13 billion in payables and cash reserves down to ₱718 million, the Lopez Group must act fast—using its ₱50 billion windfall from First Gen’s sale to Enrique Razon—to prevent a collapse that could damage its entire credit reputation. When TV5 , backed by the Manny Pangilinan group , pulled the plug on its partnership with ABS-CBN and demanded a ₱1 billion payment , it wasn’t just a broken deal—it was a warning shot. A signal that the financial cracks in ABS-CBN are widening, and the tremors could shake the entire Lopez Group . The numbers are stark: ABS-CBN’s SEC filing shows ₱13 billion in trade and other payables , a ₱11 billion working capital deficit , and cash reserves down to ₱718 million . These aren’t minor hiccups—they’re existential threats. When a major partner like TV5 walks away over unpaid obligations, others will take notice. Talent agencies, event venue...

BDO’s Premium Under Pressure: Why Investors Should Watch CASA, Margins, and Cyber Risk

BDO Unibank has long been the crown jewel of Philippine banking—commanding scale, profitability, and a valuation premium that peers struggle to match. But its latest quarterly filing and sector trends suggest that the next chapter may be more challenging than the last. The Margin Squeeze Begins The first red flag is in the funding mix. Current and savings accounts (CASA)—the cheapest source of funds—slipped from about 71.5% at end-2024 to 66.6% by September 2025. Time deposits surged by nearly ₱300 billion. This isn’t just a footnote; it’s a structural shift that raises funding costs. Combine that with the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas’ rate-cut cycle—policy rate now at 4.75% and likely heading lower—and you have a classic margin squeeze: loan yields fall faster than deposit costs. For a bank with ₱5.27 trillion in assets, even a 10–20 basis point hit to net interest margin (NIM) can shave billions off earnings. Consumer Credit: A Quiet Risk BDO’s consumer book is growing, but so a...
