MNACT’s net profit rises by 4.1% YoY to $81.5m in Q1 FY22/23

The profit growth was largely driven by two factors.

Mapletree North Asia Commercial Trust’s (MNACT) net profit rose by 4.1% YoY to $81.5m in Q1 FY22/23.

In a bourse filing, MNACT’s manager said the profit growth for the quarter was largely driven by contribution from the Hewlett-Packard Japan Headquarters Building (“HPB”) that the company acquired on 18 June 2021, and the lower quantum of rental relief granted at Festival Walk in Hong Kong.

According to Cindy Chow, CEO of MNACT’s manager, the rental relief granted in 1Q FY22/23 was $0.2m. 

In Q1 FY21/22, the company granted a rental relief of $4.0m to tenants of Festival Walk.

Festival Walk, Gateway Plaza in Beijing, and the newly levied property tax1 at Sandhill Plaza in Shanghai also posted lower average rental rates during the quarter that partially offset the company’s profit increase.

Except for Gateway Plaza, MNACT’s malls also posted gross revenues with Festival walk posting a dip of 0.8% YoY, and Sandhill Plaza’s declining by 3.7%.

On the flip side, MNACT’s manager said the company is looking forward to its merger with Mapletree Commercial Trust (MCT) to form Mapletree Pan Asia Commercial Trust (MPACT).

“As we embark on this significant milestone, on behalf of the board of directors and management team, we would like to thank our unitholders once again for their long-standing support and trust in MNACT since IPO,” Chow said.

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.
