What Mapletree Logistics Trust does

Mapletree Logistics Trust (MLT) is a Singapore-listed Real Estate Investment Trust (S-REIT) constituted under a Singapore trust deed and managed by Mapletree Logistics Trust Management Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of sponsor Mapletree Group. The trust invests in and operates logistics real estate across nine Asia Pacific markets (Australia, China, Hong Kong SAR, India, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, South Korea, and Vietnam), holding S$13.1 billion in assets under management comprising 8.2 million square metres of quality logistics space across 63 cities and serving over 900 customers. MLT was IPO-listed on the Singapore Exchange in July 2005 under ticker M44U (MX.SI).

The trust's core offering is logistics property leasing, supplemented by three additional customer solutions: sale-and-leaseback arrangements for asset-light strategies, asset enhancement of older properties, and development services covering both logistics park and build-to-suit projects. The portfolio is concentrated in modern Grade A warehouse specifications with cold storage capability, multi-storey ramp-up designs, and environmental features; 67% of the portfolio by GFA is green certified and 131.8 MWp of solar capacity is installed, the largest among Singapore REITs. Revenue is generated primarily through recurring rental income under multi-tenanted and single-user leases, with quarterly distributions to unitholders funded by net property income after management fees and interest. Tenant segments are diversified horizontally across e-commerce, third-party logistics providers, retail and FMCG companies, and manufacturers, with anchor tenants including Coles (Australia) and Unilever (Vietnam). Greater China represents the single largest geographic exposure at 41% of AUM but contributes only 32% of gross revenue, an imbalance the manager is actively addressing through a S$1 billion divestment and recycling program into higher-growth markets such as India.

Q4 FY2025-26 revenue was S$176.6 million (down 1.7% year-over-year), net property income was S$151.4 million, and amount distributable to unitholders was S$93 million (down 6.1% year-over-year), reflecting divestment proceeds and regional currency softness. Portfolio occupancy stood at 96.9% with positive rental reversion of 3.3%, and full-year FY2025-26 DPU was S$0.07262 supporting a distribution yield above 6%. The trust has executed multiple capital raises since IPO, including a S$200 million private placement in April 2023, and has ongoing strategic activity including a S$53.6 million acquisition in Mumbai (its first entry into that market) and ongoing divestments of mature China and Singapore assets into a sponsor-led RMB fund.
