Tough leasing environment mars Mapletree Industrial Trust’s decent Q3 results

Its net property income grew to $58m.

An increasingly challenging leasing environment looms over Mapletree Industrial Trust, in spite of the fact that the group reported decent results for the third quarter of its financial year.

The group reported that its net property income grew 5.4% year on year to $58m and revenue inched up by 3.3% to $78.1m, while its distribution per unit grew 6.4% to 2.67 cents.

According to OCBC, MIT will have to deal with the challenging leasing environment in coming quarters, on back of escalating competitive pressures and the soft macroeconomic landscape.

“Rental reversions are likely to continue to moderate as the gap between MIT’s passing rents and market rents are narrowing. Average portfolio occupancy dipped slightly from 91.5% in 2QFY15 to 90.8% in 3QFY15 due to the continued relocation of tenants from the Telok Blangah Cluster (11% occupancy rate),” stated OCBC.

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.
