Thanks to contribution from its new data centre.

Mapletree Industrial Trust (MIT) for 4QFY16 edged up 0.1% YoY to $50.4m, thanks to contributions from its newly completed build-to-suit data centre at 26A Ayer Rajah Crescent as well as its sturdy portfolio performance.

According to a report by OCBC, MIT’s DPU was also up 6% YoY to 2.81 S cents, while revenue saw a 5.81% YoY climb to $84m.

Moreover, overall portfolio occupancy was at a stable 94.6% in Q4. Portfolio valuation climbed up 3.9% to $3.56b, with a slight 25 bps compression in cap rates for its Business Park Buildings.

During the quarter, MIT also saw positive rental uplifts for all its segments ranging from 2.1% to 2.8%. The HiTech Buildings were an exception, though, as the property posted a 4.9% pullback.

For FY16, DPU climbed 6.9% YoY to 11.15 S cents, while gross revenue grew 5.6% YoY to $331.6m.

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.
