CapitaLand Investment’s 9M revenue dips 25.5% to S$1.6 billion after Clas deconsolidation
Fee-related revenue improves to S$882 million from S$845 million
[SINGAPORE] CapitaLand Investment (CLI) reported a 25.5 per cent plunge in total revenue to about S$1.6 billion for the first nine months of 2025, from S$2.1 billion in the year-ago period, on the back of the deconsolidation of lodging trust CapitaLand Ascott Trust (Clas) .
The asset manager said in an update filed to the Singapore Exchange on Thursday (Nov 6) that fee-related revenue improved to S$882 million from S$845 million, boosted by higher event-driven fees from listed funds and contributions from new funds.
Revenue from real estate investment, on the other hand, slid 12 per cent to S$753 million due to the deconsolidation of Clas and divested assets.
Equity totalling S$3.7 billion was raised by listed and private funds for the year to Nov 5, CapitaLand Investment said.
Specifically, private funds raised about S$2.1 billion, with continued interests in regional thematic and country-focused funds. Listed funds raised S$1.6 billion to fund strategic acquisitions and debt repayments.
The asset manager also monetised S$2.2 billion through portfolio optimisation and value unlocking during the approximately 10-month period.
