Gross revenue and net property income for 3QFY22/23 rose 5.0% and 4.9% year-on-year to S$170.4 million and S$128.8 million respectively. This was mainly driven by the contributions from new leases across various clusters in the Singapore Portfolio. The distribution to Unitholders for 3QFY22/23 was S$92.3 million1,2.

Mr Tham Kuo Wei, Chief Executive Officer of the Manager, said, "While MIT's operating metrics remained strong, we encountered headwinds from higher operating expenses and borrowing costs. We have reached another milestone in our portfolio rejuvenation and rebalancing efforts with the completion of the first block of the new high-tech industrial redevelopment project at Kallang Way in November 2022."

Portfolio and Investment Updates for 3QFY22/23

Average Overall Portfolio occupancy for 3QFY22/23 increased to 95.7% from 95.6% in the preceding quarter. The average occupancy rate for the Singapore Portfolio improved to 96.9% from 96.8% in the preceding quarter as higher occupancies were registered across most property segments. The average occupancy rate for the North American Portfolio remained the same at 93.1% in 3QFY22/23. Positive rental revisions were achieved across most property segments in Singapore.

The build-to-suit development, 165 Kallang Way obtained its Temporary Occupation Permit on 10 November 2022. The seven-storeypurpose-built development is fully committed by a global medical device company headquartered in Germany for a minimum lease term of 15 years with annual rental escalations. The remaining blocks of the redevelopment, 161 and 163 Kallang Way are slated for completion in the first half of 2023. 161 and 163 Kallang Way have received the BCA Green Mark Platinum Award on 9 December 2022, which underscored MIT's track record for providing sustainable real estate solutions.

The Manager has successfully pre-leased two floors of 163 Kallang Way. To-date, about 39% of the redevelopment at 161, 163 and 165 Kallang Way's net lettable area have been committed.

Capital Management Update

About 74.3% of MIT Group's gross borrowings of S$2,854.6 million had been hedged through interest rate swaps and fixed rate borrowings as at 31 December 2022, which will reduce the impact of interest rate fluctuations on distributions. The weighted average all-in funding cost for 3QFY22/23 was 3.3%, as compared to 2.9% for the previous quarter due to higher benchmark reference rates.

The Manager raised proceeds of S$40.8 million from the DRP for 2QFY22/23 Distribution, which represented a take-up rate of 45.8%. The DRP will continue to be applied for the 3QFY22/23 Distribution and will be suspended thereafter.

Outlook

2023 is expected to be a challenging year as the main engines of global growth - the United States of America, Europe, and China - experience weakening economic activity while about one-third of the world's economy is expected to contract4. Numerous risks, such as geopolitical fragmentation, inflation, higher interest rates and new COVID-19 variants, could weigh on the global economy.

The uncertain global outlook and the lacklustre manufacturing momentum may persist in the year ahead. Increasing property operating expenses and borrowing costs will continue to exert pressure on distributions. The Manager will manage these pressures through cost-mitigating measures and focus on tenant retention to maintain a stable portfolio occupancy.

Distribution to Unitholders

Unitholders can expect to receive their quarterly DPU for the period from 1 October 2022 to 31 December 2022 in cash or DRP units on 14 March 2023. The closure of MIT's transfer books and register of Unitholders will be at 5.00pm on 3 February 2023.
