Companies' Brief

Mapletree Industrial Trust

FY18E DPU growth of 9 per cent to 12 Singapore cents should be well supported by major project with Hewlett-Packard contributing. Thus we roll-over our valuations to that year, pegged to a 7 per cent yield target, tightened from 7.25 per cent to reflect the higher quality portfolio of Mapletree Industrial Trust, as net property income (NPI) contributions from high-spec and business parks are expected to rise to 42 per cent from 33 per cent.
