The quarterly figure increased on the back of contributions from the property acquisitions in Europe and Australia in the financial year ended 30 September 2019, which was partially offset by divestment activities in Australia.

Likewise, revenue climbed 12.8% YoY in Q2 to $62.14m (A$67.3m) from $559.09m (A$59.67m) in 2019. Accordingly, distributable income jumped 16.7% YoY to $39.79m (A$43.1m) from $34.07m (A$36.9m) a year ago.

Distribution per unit (DPU) in Q2 edged up 4.4% YoY to 1.73 cents (1.9 Australian cents). The record date for the FLT Clean-up Distribution was on 14 April, and the distribution amount of 3.73 cents will be paid on 26 June.

The total return attributable to unitholders jumped 22.8% YoY to $38.13m (A$41.3m), thanks to a gain on divestment of investment property held for sale of $923,237 (A$1m), a fair value gain on foreign currency forward contracts of $2.24m (A$2.4m) to hedge the currency risk on distributions to unitholders, and net exchange gains of $2.03m (A$2.2m).

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.
