Prime US REIT DPU decreases by 33% YoY in H1 2025

The DPU for H1 2025 is $0.15 (US$0.12).

 

Prime US REIT (PRIME) has reported a 33% year-on-year (YoY) decline in its distribution per unit (DPU) for the first half of 2025 at $0.15 (US$0.12), but maintained a 10% payout ratio of distributable income.

For H1 2025, PRIME’s net property income decreased by 11.6% YoY to $45.97m (US$35.83m) while its distributable income decreased by 28.6% YoY to $21.42m (US$16.7m).

PRIME’s gross revenue for H1 2025 was $86.33m (US$67.3m), a decrease compared to the recorded $94.29m (US$73.5m) during the same period a year ago.

The decline was mainly attributed to the divestment of One Town Centre in July 2024 and higher finance expenses.

According to PRIME, its finance expenses for H1 2025 were $26.43m (US$20.6m), an increase compared to $18.99m (US$14.8m) in H1 2024, mainly due to increases in finance costs on the unhedged portion of borrowings and incremental drawdowns on debt facilities for capital expenditures.

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.
