CPF - Closing Status 29 November

Invested into Mapletree Industrial 2 lots in this week under CPF portfolio.   For its 2Q2014 financial results, NPI +11.6% despite the exit of a major tenant.  81% of borrowings had been hedged through interest rate swaps and fixed rate borrowings.  Amount distributable to unitholders +9.7%.  NAV as of end Sep'13 at $1.11 but Mr Market says it is worth $1.35 at the moment.   Aggregate leverage ratio 36.2%.  As of end Sep'13, net current liabilities position due to the reclassification of long term borrowings which are maturing in Aug'14 and Sep'14 (for financial year 2015); which it has commenced discussions with banks to either extend or refinance these loans.  Portfolio occupancy 93.9%.

Invested into Mapletree Logistics 2 lots in this week.  For its 2Q2014 financial results, NPI -1.3%; excluding the forex impact then NPI +3.4%.  Borrowing costs -27% due to lower average interest rates achieved and weaker JPY.  Impact of weaker JPY on distribution is mitigated by currency hedges.  Amount distributable to unitholders +7% driven by enlarged portfolio, positive rental reversions and lower financing costs.  NAV as of end Sep'13 at $0.93 but Mr Market says it is worth $1.05 at the moment.  Aggregate leverage ratio 34.4%.  74% of total debt hedged into fixed rates.  Portfolio occupancy 98.7%.
