The REIT also has close to three-quarters of its loans on fixed rates.Lendlease Global Commercial REIT (SGX: JYEU)Lendlease Global Commercial REIT, or LREIT, is an office cum retail REIT that owns Jem, 313 Somerset, both in Singapore, and an interest in Sky Complex in Milan, Italy.These properties have an AUM of S$3.6 billion as of 30 June 2022.LREIT reported a decent set of earnings for its fiscal 2023’s first half (1H FY2023).Gross revenue more than doubled year on year to S$101.7 million as Jem was added to the REIT’s portfolio.NPI surged 157.8% year on year to S$76.4 million while DPU inched up 2.1% year on year to S$0.0245.The REIT’s gearing ratio stood at 39.2% with a low weighted average cost of debt of 2.35%.Committed occupancy was very high at 99.8%.The DRIP will apply to the 1H FY2023 DPU and the issue price of new units will be set at around 2% lower than the units’ VWAP.Starhill Global REIT (SGX: P40U)Starhill Global REIT, or SGREIT, owns a portfolio of 10 retail and office properties in Singapore, Australia, Malaysia, Japan, and China.The portfolio was valued at S$2.9 billion as of 31 December 2022.SGREIT’s 1H FY2023 saw revenue rise 4.1% year on year to S$94.7 million.NPI increased by 6.7% year on year to S$74.3 million while DPU edged up 2.2% year on year to S$0.0182.The REIT’s occupancy stayed high at 97.1% with its portfolio boasting a long weighted average lease expiry of 6.8 years by net lettable area.SGREIT’s gearing stood at just 36.3%, opening the REIT up for debt-fuelled acquisitions.Around 84% of its loans are on fixed rates and its cost of debt came in at 3.28%.The REIT manager has confirmed that the DRIP will apply to the 1H FY2023 DPU and that new units will be issued at a 2% discount to the VWAP.After books closure, management announced that the DRIP issue price is S$0.5661 per unit.</body></html>","source":"lsy1602567310727","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;
