Outlook and 2024 Guidance
Outlook
-
Operating environment remains uncertain, however interest rates appear close to peak and inflation is trending lower. Transaction market remains subdued but is expected to improve as bond yields stabilise
-
Retail sales growth moderated in 2H 2023, however we expect our portfolio to continue to benefit from high occupancy and fixed rental increases
-
Office leasing market expected to remain competitive with elevated vacancy, new supply and subdued demand. Despite 11% expiry in 2024 we are targeting the Office portfolio to deliver a net income result in line with 2023
-
Our Logistics portfolio is well positioned to benefit from favorable market conditions, positive leasing spreads and development
2024 Guidance
-
GPT expects to deliver FFO of approximately 32.0 cents per security and a distribution of 24.0 cents per security
-
Net income growth across the diversified portfolio is expected to be offset by higher interest costs. Trading profits from contracted sales at Sydney Olympic Park are expected to contribute circa 4% of FFO, which is higher than the historical average
-
Higher Office lease incentives and a lower distribution payout ratio from GWOF impacts free cash flow and the 2024 distribution
