  • Centurion’s 1Q25 revenue rose 13% y-o-y to S$69m, which accounts for about 25.6%/24.9% of MIBG/consensus full-year forecasts. The good performance was mainly driven by healthy financial occupancies and positive rental revisions in both its PBWA and PBSA portfolio.

  • In Malaysia, PBWA revenue dipped by 1% to S$4.8m in 1Q25 as average occupancy (excluding beds newly added from AEIs) fell 14ppt y-o-y to 82% in 1Q25 given short-term headwinds stemming from the foreign worker cap, which hindered employers from recruiting new workers. This was partly offset by stronger rental rates and MYR.

  • In Australia, revenue saw a 7% decline to S$3.6m, primarily due to the weaker AUD. In local currency terms, rental revenue fell by 3% amid lower bed capacity with an ongoing AEI in Melbourne. The average occupancy declined to 86% in 1Q25 (-4ppt y-o-y).
  • Centurion observed a delay in student arrivals for AY25 given the cap on new international students. But we understand occupancy has since rebounded to 93% by Mar 2025 after the commencement of FY25 Semester 1.
