Year-on-year EBITDA bridge (FY2021 → FY2022)

Bridge not available: EBITDA isn't a meaningful measure for banks, insurers and property trusts; sector-specific measures (net interest margin, combined ratio, FFO) are not yet held.

Margins over time

Net profit as a share of revenue for each year whose figures passed the checks (1 of 6 years from FY2021). The shaded line is the median of 9 other listed Real Estate property trusts, using each one’s same financial year where it passed the checks; the number of companies in each median is in the table. Gaps are years that were not charted.

Years not charted

These years are on file but their figures did not pass the checks, so no chart is drawn for them.

  • FY2026: Neither EBITDA nor EBIT is recorded, so operating profit cannot be placed.
  • FY2025: Net profit is not recorded for this year.
  • FY2024: After placing every reported line, $26.4m (139% of revenue) is left unexplained between EBIT and net profit. A residual that large usually means a line was mis-extracted, so the chart is not drawn.
  • FY2023: After placing every reported line, $9.3m (60% of revenue) is left unexplained between EBIT and net profit. A residual that large usually means a line was mis-extracted, so the chart is not drawn.
  • FY2021: EBIT is -$1.8m. This layout does not draw an operating loss.
