During the year, the Trust refinanced its $230 million bank facility with the same financial institutions at a lower cost and with the maturity extended to 31 August 2020. The Trust has continued to hedge its interest rate exposure to take advantage of the current favourable low interest rate environment. As a result, the Trust’s interest rate exposure was 80% hedged at 30 June 2016 and on average 60% hedged for the next three years.
The forecast FFO and distribution for the year ending 30 June 2017 is expected to increase by approximately 2.5% to 3.0% to 40.2 to 40.4 cents per security.
