KUALA LUMPUR (Jan 14): Malaysian real estate investment trusts (M-REITs) are expected to remain supported into 2026 by lower interest rates and catalysts from the Visit Malaysia 2026 (VM2026) tourism campaign, said Hong Leong Investment Bank (HLIB).
Maybank IB said while earnings growth is expected to normalise after a strong 2025, income visibility remains high on healthy occupancies, positive rental reversions and prudent balance sheet management.
RHB noted that aggregate property sales rose 11.
"This divestment forms part of our active portfolio management and capital discipline, where mature, smaller-format properties are monetised at attractive valuations and capital is redeployed into larger, scalable properties with stronger long-term growth.
This marks Axis REIT’s fourth acquisition this year, bringing its total investments for the year to RM964.
However, the REIT did not provide reasons to adjourn the meeting.
The proceeds will be utilised to fully refinance the MTNs issued under the Tranche 1 Series 1 of the unrated MTN programme of up to RM950 million, and the existing term loan facility granted by Public Bank Bhd in favour of AmanahRaya REIT vide Pacific Trustees Bhd.
The sale “highlights the strong market demand for our high-specification facilities and the institutional-grade nature of our industrial parks”.
HLIB said from 4Q2025 onwards, REITs with recently completed acquisitions should see stronger contributions.
With the deal being voted down, Turiya said, in a separate filing, it will sell its entire stake in property arm Turiya Properties Sdn Bhd, which was meant to buy Wisma Sentral Inai, to Shamir for RM0.
