Cache Logistics Trust's Q4 net property income up 11.3% to $21.3m

Contributions from DHL Supply Chain kicked in.

Cache Logistics Trust reported a good quarter in 4Q16 as it ended the period with an 11.3% increase in net property income to $21.3m. Its gross revenue jumped 13.5% YoY to $27.3m due to incremental rental contribution from DHL Supply Chain Advanced Regional Centre and its Australian properties but partially offset by lower revenue from 51 Alps Ave.

However, its distribution per unit slumped 10.8% YoY to 1.85 Singapore cents. This was due to a larger unit base and smaller capital distribution of $756k in 4Q16 which arose from the sales proceeds of an asset disposal, versus $2.1m in 4Q15.

"Excluding the distributions from capital, CACHE’s adjusted DPU would have declined by a smaller pace of 3.9%. For FY16, CACHE’s gross revenue spiked 24.0% YoY to S$111.3m and constituted 101.9% of our full-year forecast. DPU of 7.725 Singapore cents represented a dip of 9.1% and made up 101.7% of our FY16 projection. Excluding capital distributions, CACHE’s adjusted FY16 DPU would have fallen 5.4%," OCBC Investment Research said.

To recall, Cache announced that it has completed the divestment of its Changi Districentre 3 property to Agility International Logistics Pte Ltd for a sale price of $25.5m.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
