Far East Hospitality net property income slips 8.4%

Lower occupancy rates led to lower revenues.

Far East Hospitality Trust (FEHT) posted a net property income of $18.19m for the first quarter, 8.4% lower than the $19.86 registered for the same period last year.

Gross revenue, which was at $21.3m, 6.9% lower than the same period last year due to lower occupancies in serviced residences and rental assistances given to tenants at commercial premises. Master lease rentals for the hotel segment remained the same.

FEHT will still push through with upgrading the rooms and common areas of The Elizabeth Hotel, enhancing the outdoor refreshment area of the Orchard Rendezvous Hotel, and redecloping the Central Square.

Moving forward, it plans to future-proof its infrastructures, grow its business hubs and expand its tourism offerings as the economy tries to recover from the pandemic.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
