First REIT 1H 2026 Financial Results Analysis
First Real Estate Investment Trust (First REIT), Singapore’s first healthcare REIT, released its 1H 2026 financial results amid a challenging macroeconomic backdrop. Below, we analyze the key metrics, summarize proposed corporate actions, and discuss the outlook for investors.
Key Financial Highlights
| Metric | 1H 2026 | 1Q 2026 | 1H 2025 | YoY Change | QoQ Change |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rental & Other Income (S\$M) | 46.3 | – | 50.5 | -8.3% | – |
| Net Property & Other Income (S\$M) | 45.0 | – | 48.9 | -8.1% | – |

| Distribution Per Unit (DPU, cents) | 0.98 | 0.50 (1Q), 0.48 (2Q) | 1.13 | -13.3% | -4.0% |
Rental and other income declined 8.3% YoY, net property income fell 8.1%, and the distributable amount dropped 12.5% YoY, primarily due to the depreciation of the Japanese Yen and Indonesian Rupiah against the Singapore Dollar. DPU for 1H 2026 was 0.98 cents, down 13.3% YoY and 4.0% QoQ.
Balance Sheet and Capital Management
- Asset size: S\$1.02 billion (after reclassifying S\$450 million as assets held for sale following approval for Indonesian divestments).
- Gearing ratio increased to 45.7% (from 42.1% at end-2025), as debt rose to S\$469.6 million.
- Interest coverage improved to 4.2 times (from 3.7 times).
- NAV per unit fell to 23.00 cents (from 24.97 cents).
- Debt maturity profile remains short, with weighted average term to maturity at 1.5 years.
Dividend and Distribution Trends
- DPU has declined consistently over the past quarters, from 0.55 cents in 2Q 2025 to 0.48 cents in 2Q 2026.
- Distribution yield stands at 8.5%, with a price-to-book ratio of 1.0x.
- Special distribution proposed in connection with Indonesian asset divestments.
Strategic Review and Divestment Activities
- First REIT is divesting its Indonesian properties in phases, with S\$471.5 million in consideration for hospital and non-core asset sales.
- Upon completion of the divestments and exercise of the “Put Option” (expiring 31 Oct 2026), First REIT will have fully exited Indonesia.
- Rental arrears from Indonesian tenants (~S\$6.9 million) will be cleared upon completion of divestments.
- Hedging arrangements have been put in place to mitigate IDR/SGD conversion volatility.
Macroeconomic and Market Risks
- The Indonesian Rupiah and Japanese Yen remain under pressure, with central banks taking steps to stabilize currencies.
- Global inflation is forecasted to rise to 4.7%, and economic growth to slow to 3.0% in 2026.
- Uncertainty in Indonesia is heightened by the resignation of the central bank governor and domestic policy risks.
- Japanese Yen weakness persists despite Bank of Japan’s policy tightening.
Corporate Actions and Fund Flows
- Significant asset sales and portfolio reconstitution focused on developed markets with more stable currencies.
- Loan repayments and redemption of perpetual securities will follow divestment proceeds.
- Increase in total issued units (0.8%) due to management and divestment fee payments.
Outlook
First REIT’s outlook remains cautious, with ongoing currency risks and macroeconomic uncertainty. Management is actively repositioning the portfolio for stability and growth by divesting Indonesian assets and focusing on developed markets. Yield remains attractive, but distributions are declining as asset sales and currency exposure reduce income.
Investment Recommendations
- If you currently hold First REIT: Consider holding for the upcoming special distribution and the completion of divestments, which may reduce portfolio risk and currency volatility. However, monitor further DPU trends and management’s ability to reconstitute the portfolio for growth.
- If you do not hold First REIT: Exercise caution before entry. Wait for confirmation of completed divestments and clarity on new asset acquisitions in developed markets. Current high yield is attractive, but declining DPU and currency risks warrant a prudent approach.
