Mapletree Ind Tr Mapletree Industrial Trust, or MIT, is an industrial REIT with a portfolio of 56 properties in the US, 83 in Singapore, and one in Japan.The REIT’s assets under management (AUM) came in at S$9 billion as of 30 June 2024.MIT reported a commendable set of earnings for its first quarter of fiscal 2025 (1Q FY2025) ending 30 June 2024.Revenue increased by 2.7% year on year to S$175.3 million, contributed by revenue contributions from its newly-acquired Osaka data centre along with renewals and positive rental reversions across its portfolio.Net property income (NPI) inched up 1.3% year on year to S$132.5 million while distribution per unit improved by 1.2% year on year to S$0.0343.MIT saw its occupancy improve slightly to 91.9% from 91.4% in the previous quarter after signing a new lease at Brentwood, USA.The REIT also completed the Phase 3 fit-out works for its new Osaka data centre.MIT also achieved an average positive rental reversion of 9.2% for renewal leases within its portfolio.Shares of the industrial REIT provided a 5.5% forward distribution yield. Mapletree Log Tr Mapletree Logistics Trust, or MLT, is a logistics-focused REIT with a portfolio of 188 properties across eight countries.The REIT’s AUM stood at S$13.4 billion as of 30 June 2024.MLT reported a downbeat set of earnings for 1Q FY2025 as it was negatively impacted by currency weakness and a weak performance in China.For 1Q FY2025, revenue dipped by 0.3% year on year to S$181.7 million with NPI falling by 0.9% year on year to S$156.7 million.DPU tumbled by 8.9% year on year to S$0.02068.The annualised DPU of S$0.08272 gives MLT’s units a prospective distribution yield of 5.8%.MLT reported a high portfolio occupancy of 95.7% with an average positive rental reversion of 2.6% for its latest quarter.
