Mapletree Industrial Trust (MIT) delivered a resilient performance in the first quarter of FY25/26, with higher net property income primarily driven by contributions from its Japan portfolio and robust leasing activities in Singapore. While distribution per unit saw a slight decrease year-on-year, it would have risen quarter-on-quarter when excluding certain one-off gains. The trust is actively rebalancing its portfolio through strategic divestments in North America and Singapore to enhance financial flexibility. Proactive asset management, including efforts to improve occupancies, and a reclassified property portfolio reflect MIT’s sharpened focus on growing Data Centres and Hi-Tech Buildings and Business Space segments.
• A strategic rebalancing of the portfolio is underway, focusing on key growth areas and enhancing the trust’s financial agility
• Operational performance indicates positive trends, with new leases and renewals contributing significantly, particularly within the Singapore portfolio
• The trust has successfully completed crucial development phases and divested certain assets, shaping its future direction
