Basic Profile & Key Statistics

Key Indicators

Performance Highlight

Despite a slight YoY decline in gross revenue, NPI remained stable due to lower property expenses. Distribution from investments increased following the acquisition of an additional interest in NEX, leading to a YoY increase in distribution to unitholders. However, due to an enlarged unitholder base, DPU remained relatively unchanged.

Rental Reversion

Retail portfolio rental reversion for FY24 stands at 7.7%, with Central Plaza reporting a higher rental reversion of 9.3%.

Shopper Traffic & Tenant Sales

Both shopper traffic and tenant sales have improved YoY. While shopper traffic is still below pre-COVID levels, tenant sales have surpassed pre-COVID levels.

Asset Enhancement Initiative

The AEI for Tampines 1 was completed in August.

Author's Opinion

Performance has improved compared to the previous half-year primarily due to higher income from the acquisition of an additional interest in NEX. DPU remains similar despite lower management fees payable in units and no retention release. Regarding debt maturity, 15.7% matures in the next fiscal year, for which FCT has secured refinancing facilities.
