Sasseur REIT’s rental income up 1.6% YoY in Q1

The Reit's portfolio sales declined 0.9%.

Sasseur REIT reported entrusted management agreement (EMA) rental income of $31.58m (RMB 175.4 m) for the first quarter ended 31 March 2025, up 1.6% from $31.07m (RMB 172.6m) a year earlier.

The growth was mainly driven by a 3% increase in fixed rental income, which offset a 1.2% decline in variable income, reflecting a 0.9% drop in outlet sales.

In Singapore dollars, Q1 rental income fell 0.2% year-on-year due to a 1.7% depreciation of the RMB against the Singapore dollar.

The Reit's portfolio sales declined 0.9% to $1.98m (RMB 11.0m) in Q1 2025, mainly due to weaker performance at Hefei and Kunming outlets. This was partially offset by strong sales at the Chongqing Liangjiang outlet, supported by a broader range of new products.

Sales in January and February rose 1.2% YoY, driven by strong consumer demand during Chinese New Year promotions. However, March sales softened across all outlets as post-festival consumer spending remained cautious.

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.
