An upbeat 3Q24
- For assets under management contracts and MCMGI, RevPAU in most of the key markets rose y-o-y, except for in Australia due to high-base effect. Its UK (+7%) and Japan (+6%) portfolios led RevPAR growth. Events and concerts in the UK underpinned strong leisure and group bookings in the summer months.
- CapitaLand Ascott Trust expects its US portfolio to benefit from the events pipeline and favourable supply dynamics. Its US student accommodation portfolio continues to have 90% occupancy and rent increase of 4.5%. Notably, EBITDA yield for Standard at Columbia crept up to ~7% from 6.2% in the original underwriting.
