Suntec Reit
Suntec Reit yesterday posted a 5.1 per cent drop in distribution per unit to 2.365 cents for its third quarter ended Sept 30, from 2.491 cents a year ago. This was mainly due to an enlarged unit base, after units from a $200 million private placement were issued on May 6.
The distribution will be paid out on Nov 28, after books closure on Nov 1.
Distributable income dipped 0.4 per cent year on year to $66.2 million for the third quarter as a result of lower capital distribution.
Meanwhile, distributable income from operations rose 5.7 per cent to $59.7 million from the year-ago quarter. Gross revenue was up 3.5 per cent on the year at $91.9 million for the quarter, from $88.8 million.
Frasers Centrepoint Trust
Frasers Centrepoint Trust’s distribution per unit rose 1.8 per cent to 2.913 cents, from 2.862 cents a year ago for the fourth quarter ended Sept 30, boosted by higher portfolio occupancy and contributions.
Gross revenue was down 0.5 per cent at $48.3 million for the quarter, from $48.5 million a year ago.
Net property income edged down 0.1 per cent on the year to $32.85 million for the quarter, from $32.88 million a year ago.
Net non-property expenses stood at $11.1 million, $1.6 million higher than a year ago.
