$Mapletree PanAsia Com Tr(N2IU.SI)$

Basic Profile & Key Statistics

Key Indicators

Performance Highlight

Gross revenue, NPI, the amount available for distribution and DPU declined YoY primarily due to reduced income from the divestment of Mapletree Anson in July, higher property expenses, currency impacts from a stronger SGD against JPY and RMB, and absence of one-off property tax refund.

Rental Reversion

Portfolio rental reversion is 1.2%, with only Singapore properties seeing positive rental reversions. All other regions experienced negative reversion.

Shopper Traffic & Tenant Sales

At VivoCity, both shopper traffic and tenant sales have declined YoY due to temporary disruptions from the AEI. At Festival Walk, tenant sales decreased YoY, although there was a slight increase in shopper traffic.

Divestment

Mapletree Anson was divested on 31 July. Proceeds were directed toward debt repayment to reduce gearing.

Asset Enhancement Initiative

VivoCity’s AEI is underway, targeting completion by the end of 2025. Phase 1 will add three food kiosks, and Phase 2 will convert parking spaces and reconfigure areas to increase the lettable area.

Author's Opinion

Compared to the prior quarter, declines in gross revenue, NPI, and DPU stem from the loss of income due to Mapletree Anson's divestment. Savings in interest expenses were insufficient to offset the drop in NPI. For debt, 5% is maturing in the coming 6 months.

    Back in May-2024, the Mapletree Anson already for S$775 million and used the proceeds to pay-off all its debt.
    In short, MapleTree PanAsia will trend upwards in due time.

      too bad the interest reduction can't cover the shortfall of NPI, resulting in lower DPU
