CICT’s retail, office segments to grow due to strong rental reversions: DBS

Its property value increased by 6.2% YoY to $26b following year-end valuations.

DBS Group Research anticipates that CapitaLand Integrated Commercial Trust’s (CICT) Singapore assets will remain stable, with potential growth from retail and office segments, driven by strong positive reversions.

CICT’s distributable income increased by 5.1% year-on-year (YoY) to $752.2m, whilst its distribution per unit (DPU) increased by 1.2% to 10.88 Scts, surpassing DBS’s estimates and in line with consensus estimates.

Reversions across all sub-asset classes remained robust and exceeded estimates, with office reversions increasing by 11% and retail reversions rising by 9%.

Occupancy costs within the retail portfolio improved to a post-pandemic high of 17%.

On a same-store basis, the increase would have been 1.4% YoY, led by Singapore and Germany assets.

The portfolio’s property value increased by 6.2% YoY to $26b following year-end valuations, including ION Orchard.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
