Key Indicators

Performance Highlight

Gross revenue and NPI improved yoy mainly due to contributions from properties that were acquired between Aug 2021 to Oct 2022.

Author's Opinion

In comparison to the previous half-yearly report, the distributable income has slightly decreased due to higher finance costs and tax expenses, despite a rise in gross revenue and NPI. Nevertheless, the occupancy rate remains stable, and the rental reversion remains strong. From the presentation, CEREIT plans to selectively divest non-strategic assets over the next 2 to 3 years to fund developments and offset potential pressure on LTV.
