Digital Core REIT, priced at S$0.62, trades significantly below its estimated fair value of S$1.11, reflecting a substantial undervaluation based on discounted cash flow analysis. Despite expectations of becoming profitable within three years and a forecasted earnings growth rate of 104.28% per year, the REIT's revenue growth is modest compared to the market at 9.7% annually versus 3.6%. Challenges include a recent drop from the S&P Global BMI Index and unstable dividend records, alongside management changes with new appointments in company secretary roles.

Despite a modest annual revenue growth forecast of 6.5%, it surpasses the market's 3.6%. Earnings are expected to increase by 11.69% annually, outpacing the market's 9.1%. However, its dividend track record is unstable and it carries a high level of debt which may raise concerns about financial sustainability amidst aggressive share repurchases and consistent dividend payouts.
