MPACT FY25/26 DPU dips 0.6% to $0.0797 on weaker overseas contributions
Excluding a one-off tax charge, full-year DPU would have risen 1.1% to $0.0811.
Mapletree Pan Asia Commercial Trust’s distribution per unit (DPU) fell 0.6% year-on-year to $0.0797 for FY25/26.
Excluding a one-off tax charge linked to the divestment of Festival Walk Tower, full-year DPU would have been $0.0811, up 1.1%, its manager, MPACT Management Ltd, said in a press release.
Gross revenue fell 4.6% to $867.3m, whilst net property income (NPI) declined 4.3% to $654.4m for the year, reflecting lower overseas contribution and divestment effect.
For the fourth quarter, DPU came in at $0.0190, down 2.6%, with gross revenue and net property income declining 5.5% and 5.9% to $210.7m and $159.6m, respectively.
Net property income in Singapore rose 4.1% on a comparable basis. VivoCity recorded a 7.6% increase in full-year NPI and a 14.1% rental reversion, alongside 3.7% growth in tenant sales.
The trust completed three divestments during the year, with proceeds used to reduce debt.
Total portfolio valuation stood at $15.2b, down 2.1% on a comparable basis.
The overseas portfolio was impacted by $301.1m of foreign exchange effect resulting from a stronger Singapore dollar against Hong Kong, Japan, and Korea currencies.
