OUE Commercial REIT - Annual Report 2021
FINANCIAL REVIEW For FY 2021, OUE C-REIT reported revenue of S$249.9 million, a 14.4% decrease year- on-year (“YoY”) mainly due to the deconsolidation of OUE Bayfront’s performance post divestment of a 50% interest on 31 March 2021 (the “Divestment”). The revenue decrease was partially offset by lower property expenses and lower rental rebates of S$8.5 million to retail tenants in FY 2021. Consequently, net property income was 11.9% lower YoY at S$204.2 million. Including the drawdown of income support at OUE Downtown Office, share of joint venture results of OUE Bayfront and lower interest expense, amount available for distribution in FY 2021 was S$131.6 million, 4.5% lower YoY. With the release of S$5.0 million of distribution which was retained in FY 2020 to preserve financial flexibility given the uncertainties posed by COVID-19 and partial distribution of divestment gain from OUE Bayfront of S$5.4 million, FY 2021 amount to be distributed was S$142.0 million. This translated to FY 2021 DPU of 2.60 cents. FY 2021 DPU would have been 2.35 cents if the income support payments received by OUE C-REIT in relation to OUE Downtown Office were to be excluded. OUE C-REIT’s distribution policy is to distribute at least 90% of its taxable income to its Unitholders on a semi-annual basis, with the actual level of distribution to be determined at the Manager’s discretion. For the period from FY 2014 1 to FY 2021, OUE C-REIT has delivered a compound annual growth rate (“CAGR”) of 16.3% 2 in its distributions to Unitholders.
