  • 2. Reasons for Acquisition

    JRF is optimizing its asset structure in response to changes in the environment surrounding retail properties including changes in demographics in Japan, expanding inbound tourism, advances in e-commerce, and increasing leisure time. To optimize its asset structure, JRF has divided its portfolio into Core, Secondary core, and Sub assets (Note 1) and is focusing on the portfolio of Core properties in locations where people gather and that enable JRF to demonstrate its ability to attract people. As it increases the percentage of Core assets, JRF will place greater emphasis on its asset replacement strategy.

    Acquisition of the Property entails the acquisition of an asset categorized as a Residential Station type property (Retail property located around station in highly populated area) in accordance with the asset replacement strategy.

For acquisition of the Property, JRF evaluated the following:

(Note 1) The Core asset category comprises Prime, Major Station, and Residential Station type properties; the Secondary core asset category comprises Suburban Mall and Value-added type properties; and the Sub asset category comprises GMS / Roadside type properties.

Highlight of acquisition

The Property is classified as a Residential Station type property in the Core asset category. It is a complex entertainment facility in a commercial area with a high population and good transportation access.

Attractiveness of market

The property is surrounded by high-density residential areas with a population of 244,000 within a three-kilometer radius and 629,000 within a five-kilometer radius. The market has high residential and daytime populations.

The population of Kawasaki-shi is trending upward, and the market will maintain a high population over the long term.

(Note 2)

The populations of Kawasaki-shi, Kanagawa and Japan in 2015 are set to 100.

Attractiveness of location

  • The facility is located around a station at residential districts within 30 minutes from Yokohama Station, a main business area.

  • Access to the site is extremely good: It is about a one-minute walk from the Sangyodoro Station on the Keikyu Daishi Line and can be accessed from JR Kawasaki Station by public bus or free shuttle bus.

  • The site is located at the intersection of Prefectural Road No. 6 (Sangyodoro) and National Road No. 409, providing good vehicular access; visibility is excellent, and the site can be entered from the north and south sides.

  • The site offers high potential in anticipation of various use needs other than commercial facilities.

Attractiveness of facility

  • The facility, operated by ROUND ONE Corporation, is the only stadium-type commercial facility in Kanagawa and comprises bowling alleys, arcade games, karaoke, and Spo-Cha (Note 3). It is the top such facility in Japan in terms of sales.

  • A fixed-term leasing contract for a long term has been executed.

  • ROUND ONE's overall sales levels are favorable as a result of expansion of the sales base due to higher experience-oriented consumption needs and by opening sites in the United States.
