AME-REIT outlook brightens
The Star reports that BIMB Research raised its AME REIT target price from RM1.93 to RM1.98 while retaining a Buy recommendation. The research house cited full occupancy of income-producing assets, rental increases and acquisition contributions, while noting that financing costs could constrain distributions. These are the analyst's assessment and target, not a guaranteed investment outcome.
AME's second-quarter net property income increased 11.5% to RM16 million, while distributable income grew 2% to RM11.7 million. The declared quarterly distribution was 2.19 sen per unit. The article also describes newly acquired industrial land intended for development; future rental contributions depend on completing facilities and securing tenants, rather than the land producing rent immediately.
