12 Aug - Half Yearly Results

PRIME’s 1H2025 net property income increased by 1.1% to US$35.8 million compared to US$35.4 million in 2H2024. Distributable income increased by 12.3% to US$16.7 million from US$14.8 million in 2H2024.

Focus on Leasing and Extending Portfolio WALE, with a Path to Stabilisation

With return-to-office momentum accelerating and increasing U.S. office leasing demand, PRIME has seen increased interest and leasing activities at several assets. Given PRIME’s ample debt headroom and access to committed undrawn facilities, PRIME was able to actively pursue major tenant opportunities, as prospective tenants increasingly favour landlords with robust balance sheets and strong liquidity positions.

Distribution

While leasing momentum has accelerated, the Manager continues to prioritise reinvestment in the portfolio to activate the newly signed leases and maximise long-term value. A distribution of 0.12 US cents per unit has been declared for 1H2025, maintaining a 10% payout ratio of distributable income but representing a modest increase from 2H2024’s distribution per unit.
