Frasers Logistics & Industrial Trust's NPI up 23.2% to $186.7m for FY2019

This was boosted by contributions from new acquisitions in Europe and Australia.

Frasers Logistics and Industrial Trust (FLT) ended the year with a bang after its net property income (NPI) rose 23.2% YoY to $186.7m (A$199.35m) for the full-year of 2019, compared to $151.45m (A$161.79m) for FY 2018, according to its SGX filing. Revenue also climbed 23% YoY to $225.37m (A$240.76m) in FY2019 from $183.25m (A$195.77m) in FY2018.

For Q4 2019, FLT’s NPI was $47.26m (A$50.49m), a 0.6% increase from $46.98m (A$50.18m) in Q4 2018. Revenue edged up 1.9% YoY to $57.68m (A$61.62m) in Q4 compared to $56.58m (A$60.44m) over the same period last year.

Distributable income rose 26.6% YoY to $140.26m for FY 2019, but distribution per unit (DPU) dropped 2.6% YoY to $0.07 compared to $0.0719 the previous year.

FLT attributed the increase in full-year income to contributions from its acquisitions in Europe and Australia, partially offset by divestments of the South Park Drive and the Sandstone Place.

Last July, FLT proposed the acquisition of interests in 12 logistics properties in Germany and Australia for a total consideration of approximately $474.79m (A$507.2m). As at 30 September, the acquisition of three Australian properties and seven out of the nine German properties had been completed.

In Q4, FLT also executed four leasing transactions in Australia and one in Germany for a total gross lettable area (GLA) of 49,268 sqm, bringing the firm’s total leasing activity in FY2019 to 11 transactions or 122,554 sqm, equivalent to 5.5% of its total portfolio GLA.

As of 30 September, FLT’s portfolio has a weighted average lease expiry (WALE) of 6.31 years, and minimal lease expiries representing 3.8% of gross rental income for the financial year ending 30 September 2020. The portfolio’s total value rose by $94.64m (A$101.1m) to approximately $3.37b (A$3.6b) as of 30 September.

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.
