Frasers Logistics and Industrial Trust net profit jumps 22.4% to $30.9m in Q3

It was backed by contributions from completed property acquisitions in 2017.

Frasers Logistics and Industrial Trust (FLT) recorded a 22.4% YoY increase in its net profit to $30.9m (A$30.67m) in Q3 2018 as its gross revenue jumped 22.6% to $49.7m (A$49.32), an announcement revealed.

The firm’s adjusted net property income (NPI) rose 27.4% to $39.6m (A$39.2m) whilst its distribution per unit (DPU) inched up 2.9% to $0.18.

According to FLT, the gains were backed by the additional contributions from four completed property acquisitions in 2017 which include the Beaulieu, Stanley Black and Decker, and Clifford Hallam facilities.

In addition, FLT’s portfolio remained at near full occupancy of 99.3%, with a weighted average lease expiry (WALE) by gross rental income (GRI) of 7.01 years, and minimal lease expiries by GRI of 0.1% and 3.4% respectively.

“Leasing activity during the quarter was also buoyant, with 118,279 sq m of leasable space contracted, de-risking our expiry profile further,” FLT CEO Robert Wallace said.

By end of June, FLT’s aggregate leverage was 36.3%, with total borrowings at A$1.08m ($1.09), 81% of which were at fixed interest rates.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

You're the reader we write for. You're also the person our partners want to reach.

If that sentence describes you — a founder, a C-suite, someone whose attention companies pay good money for — then you already understand why SBR works. We've spent twenty years earning the trust of readers exactly like you. Which is exactly what makes this an interesting place for your company to show up, too.

The ways it can show up are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The right fit depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If your company has something this audience should know about, we'd like to hear what you're working on.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
