Basic Profile & Key Statistics

Key Indicators

Performance Highlight

Gross revenue, net property income (NPI), and distributable income to unitholders posted strong year-on-year (YoY) growth, primarily driven by:

• Acquisition of an additional 15.1% stake in the Frankfurt data centre (Dec 2024)

• 20% interest in Digital Osaka 3 (Mar 2025)

• Higher rental and co-location income from the LA assets (3015 Winona & North Nash)

• Built-in rental escalations of 1–3% across leases

However, despite the strong topline growth, distributable income rose only slightly due to:

• Lower finance income

• Higher finance costs, management fees, and other trust expenses

• Partial offset from more management fees being paid in units

DPU remained stable YoY at 1.80 US cents.

Acquisition

In March 2025, Digital Core REIT completed its acquisition of a 20% interest in Digital Osaka 3.

Author's Opinion

Compared to the previous half-year, revenue growth was mainly supported by recent acquisitions. NPI growth was moderated by higher property expenses, while distributable income and DPU remained flat. Notably, the lease for 8217 Linton Hall in Northern Virginia expired on 30 June 2025, with the tenant vacating on 1 July. This property accounts for approximately 9% of annualized rent, though no detailed update was provided in the results presentation. On the debt front, the REIT has no maturity until 2027.
