CDL Hospitality Trusts H1 DPS up by 8.6% YoY to $0.0215

Net property income increased 1.8% to $59.7m.

CDL Hospitality Trusts reported higher distributions for the first half (H1) of 2026, with total distribution per stapled security rising 8.6% year-on-year (YoY) to $0.0215, supported by stronger property income and lower financing costs.

Net property income (NPI) increased 1.8% from a year earlier to $59.7m, driven mainly by improved contributions from its UK hotels portfolio, Grand Millennium Auckland, and Perth properties.

Total distribution to stapled securityholders, after retention for working capital, rose 9.7% YoY to $27.5m in H1 2026.

Gross revenue grew 1.4% to $126.9m.

Singapore hotels recorded a 4.1% YoY increase in revenue per available room (RevPAR) during the period, as the country continued to benefit from its position as a regional travel hub, supported by a mix of demand sources and a steady calendar of events.

NPI from the Singapore hotel portfolio was largely flat, edging up 0.2% YoY.

“The completion of the Moxy Singapore Clarke Quay acquisition in the first half of 2027 will deepen our presence in our core Singapore market,” said Vincent Yeo, CEO of CDLHT's managers. “We will also continue to pursue capital recycling opportunities to unlock underlying asset values and enhance returns.”

The 475-room Moxy Singapore Clarke Quay, which is being acquired through a forward purchase arrangement, is expected to receive its Temporary Occupation Permit in late 2026 and begin operations in the first half of 2027.

The addition will increase CDLHT’s Singapore room inventory from 2,555 to 3,030 rooms and expand its exposure to the lifestyle hotel segment.

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.
