KIT posts 27.7% increase in distributable income for Q1

It was driven by new acquisitions and strategic capital recycling.

Keppel Infrastructure Trust (KIT) reported a 27.7% increase in distributable income to $65m for the first quarter of 2025, up from $50.9m in the same period last year.

The growth was driven by contributions from new acquisitions and strategic capital recycling.

After adjusting for the gain on the divestment of Philippine Coastal (-$19.5m), KIT’s Q1 2025 distributable income stands at $45.5m. For Q1 2024, distributable income was $66.8m after adjustments for growth capex, upfront financing fees, and performance fees.

KIT also announced plans to acquire a 46.7% stake in Global Marine Group (GMG), a leading subsea cable service provider, from Keppel Infrastructure Fund (KIF).

The acquisition, expected to be highly accretive, will increase KIT’s distributable income per unit (DPU) by 3.5% for FY 2024 and establish its presence in the digital infrastructure sector.

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.
