Singapore property tax hike dents FHT's 1H24 bottom line 

In 1H24, the REIT reported a 1.3% YoY lower NPI.

The increase in Singapore property taxes has negatively impacted Frasers Hospitality Trust's (FHT) net property income (NPI) for the 1H24 period.

In its latest financial statement, FHT reported a 1.3% YoY lower NPI of $44.7m.

Increased labour and utilities costs driven by inflation across FHT's portfolio also affected the 1H24 NPI.

Apart from lower NPI, the REIT also reported declines in its income available for distribution (DI) and distribution per stapled security (DPS).

DI in 1H24 was $23.4m, down 13.7% YoY, whilst DPS dropped 13.7% YoY to $0.010910.

On the other hand, the company recorded a 1.7% YoY higher gross revenue of $63.3m driven by a slight improvement in its hospitality portfolio performance.

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.
