CapitaLand Ascendas REIT’s net property income rises 6.7% YoY to $508.8m in 1H23

The REIT attributed the increase to “robust operational performance.”

Robust operational performance and high portfolio occupancy boosted CapitaLand Ascendas REIT’s (CLAR) net property income to $508.8m in 1H23, a 6.7% increase from 1H22.

Based on CLAR”s latest financial statement, its portfolio occupancy hit 94.4% in 1H23.

Apart from high portfolio occupancy, newly acquired properties in Singapore in 1H 2023 and the US in FY2022 drove the increase in the REIT’s NPI.

Higher utilities income and service charges from the Singapore portfolio also contributed to the improved performance of the REIT.

Despite the higher NPI, CLAR delivered a lower DPU of $0.07719 due to “the lower distribution and the enlarged unit base following the issuance of new units pursuant to CLAR’s private placement in May 2023.”

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
