Operating environment
Portfolio
-
The Trust remains well positioned operationally with 99 per cent[1] of rental income from Bunnings and other national large format retailers which have been trading well
-
Demand for Bunnings Warehouse properties is expected to remain relatively resilient in the near term given the strength of the Bunnings covenant
-
Primary focus for the remainder of the financial year is on leasing vacancies in the portfolio, progressing store upgrades, and extending existing leases with Bunnings through the exercise of options
-
The Trust will continue to look for opportunities to acquire assets where there is good potential for value creation
Rental growth
- 23 CPI/ 22 fixed rent reviews in second half FY2023
FY2023 distribution
-
Three Bunnings MRR’s to be finalised in FY2023 > Subject to there being no major disruption to the
-
(in addition to one unresolved from FY2021 and Australian economy, the Trust could expect the
-
three unresolved from FY2022) distribution for the year ending 30 June 2023 to be similar to the ordinary distribution paid for the year ended 30 June 2022. Capital profits may be utilised to support the distribution
