Mapletree Investments Reports Fy2025 Earnings 2272 Million Aum Increases 803 Billion
Mapletree Investments has announced a positive turnaround in its financial performance for the fiscal year ending March 31, recording a net profit of $227.2 million. This was a significant improvement from the net loss of $577.2 million reported in the previous year, which was largely due to potential losses from asset revaluation.
The company’s recurring PATMI (profit after tax and minority interests), which is used to measure its operational performance, stood at $637.4 million, down 10.9% year-on-year. Revenue also decreased from $2.8 billion in FY2024 to $2.2 billion in FY2025, mainly due to the deconsolidation of Mapletree Logistics Trust. Without this impact, the company’s revenue was up by 1.2% year-on-year.
Mapletree Investments, the privately-held company, is the sponsor of three Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) in Singapore, namely Mapletree Industrial Trust, Mapletree Logistics Trust, and Mapletree Pan Asia Commercial Trust. Its assets under management increased from $77.5 billion to $80.3 billion as it made more acquisitions in the period under review.
Mapletree also undertook more development projects, with the value of projects under development rising from $3.7 billion to $5.5 billion as at March 31, 2025. This was in line with the company’s strategy to deepen its focus on its core sectors of logistics, student housing, office, and data center. The company attributed its resilient performance in the fiscal year to these strategic priorities, which will continue to guide its growth going forward.
The company’s CEO, Hiew Yoon Khong, commented on the company’s performance, stating that it had maintained a disciplined and long-term approach in executing its business plans in a challenging environment marked by elevated interest rates, geopolitical tensions, and economic uncertainties. He added that the company’s strategic priorities, which included prioritizing operational performance, investing selectively in markets with growth potential, and embarking on more development projects, underpinned its performance in FY2025 and would continue to drive sustainable growth.
In FY2025, Mapletree continued to acquire quality assets and undertake new projects within the logistics industry across the Asia-Pacific region. It made its first investment in the UK market, acquiring Derby DC1 and Verda Park and acquired a portfolio of ten logistics assets in Spain. The company also closed its third Japan-focused fund, MAJIC, and the Mapletree Emerging Growth Asia Logistics Development Fund. It is looking at new opportunities in locations such as London, Milan, Madrid, Japan, and Korea, to grow its data center portfolio.
In its second focus area, student housing, Mapletree acquired a £1 billion portfolio of 31 student housing assets in the UK and Germany, making it the fourth-largest student housing owner in the UK. It also expanded its investments in the office segment in India and Vietnam, acquiring a land plot in Bengaluru and a land parcel in Hanoi for greenfield development projects.
