CapitaLand Commercial Trust's 3Q DPU rises 2.4% to 2.14 cents

CapitaLand Commercial Trust's (CCT) distribution per unit (DPU) rose 2.4% to 2.14 cents in the third quarter ended Sept 30, 2015, from 2.09 cents a year earlier.

Distributable income rose 2.6% to $63.2 million from $61.6 million previously, on the back of higher net property income of $52.7 million, up 1.5%, from $51.9 million.

CCT also received more distributable income from its 60%-owned Raffles City Singapore.

Meanwhile, CCT's revenue rose 2.9% to $68.3 million from $66.4 million previously.

CCT says it has put in place a five-year banking facility to refinance the outstanding borrowings of CapitaGreen due in the year end. Its 40% interest in the borrowings of CapitaGreen stands at $356 million.

The trust's balance sheet remains "robust" with gearing at a "low" 30.1%.

With the impending completion of new supply in 2016, CCT expects downward pressure on office market rents as landlords focus on retaining and attracting tenants.

CCT ended lower at $1.435 on Tuesday.
