Mapletree Industrial Trust Review @ 4 May 2021

Basic Profile & Key Statistics

Mapletree Industrial Trust (MIT) invests in Business Park and Industrial properties, which include Data Centres as well. MIT owns 115 properties across Singapore, U.S. and Canada.

Performance Highlight

Gross revenue, NPI and distributable income increased YoY by 18.9%, 17.3% and 2.3% respectively mainly due to the consolidation of revenue from the 14 data centres in the United States of America previously held under MRDCT and partly offset by rental reliefs granted to eligible tenants. Without the S$ 7.1 million retention release on 4Q FY20/21 and add back the S$ 6.6 million retention withheld on FY19/20, the DPU would be 3.03 cents and 3.15 cents, which means DPU decreased by 3.8% YoY.
MIT has slight negative rental reversion for hi-tech buildings, flatted factories and stack up/ramp up buildings after renewal. However, the price per square foot is high for new hi-tech building new leases.
The acquisition of 8011 Villa Park Drive is completed. However, there won't be any rental income from 13 Mar 2021 to 10 Jun 2022. Instead, the vendor provided an upfront discount of US$16.9 million on the purchase consideration.
Divestment of 26A Ayer Rajah Crescent is expected to complete in 2Q 2021.
For the redevelopment of Kolam Ayer 2, construction of 2 buildings has commenced. Target completion in 2H2022.
