S U S TA I N A B L E F U T U R E

At IREIT Global ("IREIT"), our focus remains on building a sustainable future for our Unitholders. While new challenges such as rising interest rates and persistently high inflation have hampered the real estate leasing activity in Europe, we have managed to improve the weighted average lease expiry of IREIT's portfolio with the major lease extension at Bonn Campus and new long-term lease at Sant Cugat Green.

Our prudent approach of substantially hedging our existing bank borrowings over the tenor of the loans and maintaining a low gearing ratio have also helped IREIT to limit the impact from higher costs of financing. In view of the ongoing transformation of working arrangements at offices, we will continue to actively engage our existing tenants to retain them, focus on filling up the vacant spaces, as well as pursue investment opportunities to further diversify IREIT's asset class exposure and income streams. With sustainability being a core component of IREIT's strategy, we are also working to improve the energy efficiency and marketability of IREIT's portfolio properties through green certifications, thereby creating a more resilient and future-ready portfolio that can stand the test of time.

KEY OBJECTIVES

The Manager's key financial objectives are to provide unitholders of IREIT ("Unitholders") with regular and stable distributions, and the potential for sustainable long-term growth in distribution per unit ("DPU") and net asset value ("NAV") per unit, while maintaining an appropriate capital structure for IREIT.
