CapitaLand Commercial Trust's net property income dips 4% to $67.96m in Q4

Its divestment of One George Street, Golden Shoe Car Park, and Wilkie Edge dragged profits down.

CapitaLand Commercial Trust's (CCT) net property income dipped 4% YoY from $70.77m to $67.96m in Q4.

According to its financial statement, CCT saw lower revenue and NPI after it sold its 50% interest in One George Street, Golden Shoe Car Park, and Wilkie Edge.

The impact of the divestments was slightly offset by higher income from CapitaGreen and contributions from Asia Square Tower (AST2) on 1 November 2017.

For the whole year, NPI rose 14.8% YoY from $231.27m to $265.47m, thanks to higher income from CapitaGreen and contributions from AST2.

Meanwhile, distribution per unit (DPU) hit 2.08 cents in Q4 and brought total DPU to 8.66 cents for the year.

Property operating expenses fell 3.3% YoY to $18.3m mainly due to lower property tax as well as divestments.

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.
