Metro City Phase I Property registered a 5.1% growth in NPI on the back of a rental reversion of 11.5%, reflecting the Manager's continued efforts in trade mix optimization, effectively positioning the property as a defensive service-oriented retail destination in the district.

While the downside risk of the office portfolio is expected to be relatively low, prospects for the retail sector are clearly less certain. Notwithstanding, the Manager will endeavour to navigate the businesses of Sunlight REIT proactively and responsibly, with a view to infusing long-term and sustainable value for the stakeholders."
