- While distributable income for 3Q24 fell by 7.8% y-o-y to EUR20.8m, it increased by 4.1% on a q-o-q basis. This change is attributed to the REIT pausing its divestment activities.
- As noted in our previous report, stabilising asset valuations and peaking interest rates in the Eurozone allow Cromwell REIT to maintain net gearing at levels between 35% and 40% without the need for significant divestments.

- The L&I segment recorded 8.8% rental reversion for the quarter. However, overall reversions were affected by a single office lease, which represents approximately 1.5% of the office portfolio, and recorded a -4.3% rental reversion.
- Management of Cromwell REIT noted that this rental reversion is based on headline rents and does not account for incentives provided for the lease agreement previously. Overall, the renewed lease represents a net gain for the REIT.
