It was issued by DoubleDragon last July 16, 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>PhilRatings said DoubleDragon\u2019s bonds were assigned the highest rating and a stable outlook because of its clearly-defined and well-executed growth strategy as well as its experienced management, and its ability to form solid alliances with industry-recognized partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also taken into consideration is the firm\u2019s conservative financial position, considering the capital-intensive nature of the Company\u2019s business, and expectations of improved operating cashflow, backed by increasing rental income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DoubleDragon is a joint venture between two of the Philippines\u2019 highly-successful fast food entrepreneurs: Edgar \u201cInjap\u201d Sia II (founder of Mang Inasal) and Tony Tan Caktiong (founder of Jollibee).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company is in the business of real estate development, and has four principal business segments: retail leasing, office leasing, hospitality, and industrial leasing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the start of its operations in 2010, DoubleDragon has successfully expanded and diversified its asset portfolio. Its investment property portfolio grew to over 1.3 million square meters (sqm) as of end-March 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DoubleDragon has provincial community malls located in Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, office buildings in Metro Manila, as well as hotels and warehouse complexes nationwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, the company made significant strides in expanding its business overseas through its hotel brand, Hotel101.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DoubleDragon has set a new target of increasing its portfolio to 2.4 million sqm of gross floor area (GFA) by 2030, spread across its four core business segments: 30 percent in retail, 15 percent in office, 20 percent in hospitality, and 35 percent in industrial leasing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To achieve these targets, DoubleDragon aims to grow its hospitality and industrial leasing segments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moving forward, DoubleDragon expects its debt level to decline as the Company continues to generate positive cash from operations, while its cash reserves build up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>(News Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/manilastandard.net\/business\/314494823\/globe-aiming-to-finish-p96-b-tower-sale-this-year.html\">Manila Standard<\/a>)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:26px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\"><em><em><em>This report is prepared by PinoyInvestor\u2019s partner broker below.
