Mapletree Logistics Trust DPU up 5% YoY in Q1

The distribution per unit rose to 2.268 cents.

Mapletree Logistics Trust (MLT) posted a 5% year-on-year (YoY) increase in its distribution per unit (DPU) to 2.268 cents in the first quarter (Q1) of fiscal year 2022 to 2023 (FY 22/23).

Its gross revenue for the said period grew 14.6% to $187.7m due to higher revenue from existing assets and contributions from acquisitions in the fiscal year 2021 to 2022 and the first quarter of FY 22/23, according to its financial statement.

Property expenses went up by 24.8% to $24.4m on the back of an enlarged portfolio and high property and land tax. Net property income for the Q1 FY22/23 rose 13.2% to $163.2m.

MLT will also pay a distribution of 2.268 cents per unit on 9 September 2022 for the period from 1 April 2022 to 30 June 2022. The record date is posted on 29 July 2022.

Despite posting growth, the MLT manager remains alert to global economic headwinds such as the Russia-Ukraine crisis, high inflation, and rising interest rates.

But it noted that leasing demand for warehouse space is still resilient, backed by domestic consumption, e-commerce, and inventory stockpiling.

“The Manager remains focused on driving revenue growth from the existing portfolio through proactive leasing efforts. The Manager will continue to pursue opportunities for DPU-accretive acquisitions, asset enhancements or divestments to enhance portfolio competitiveness and create value,” it added.

Financial Statements

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.
