Elite Commercial REIT’s NPI dips 3.7% YoY despite revenue increase

NPI for the period was £8.3m.

Elite Commercial REIT saw its net property income dip by 3.7% YoY to £8.3m in 1Q24 despite higher revenue.

Revenue for the period was £9.2m, 0.8% YoY higher. The REIT attributed its higher revenue to rent escalations in April 2023.
Non-income-generating vacant assets, however, offset revenue growth.

With lower NPI, the REIT also recorded a 21.2% YoY drop in its distribution per unit (DPU), falling to £0.0067 from  £0.0085 in 1Q23.

The REIT said increased vacancy holding costs and enlarged equity bases YoY affected their financial performance for 1Q24.

Looking at portfolio performance, the REIT’s occupancy and weighted average lease expiry (WALE) stood at 92.3% and 4.0 years, respectively.

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.
