LXI Reit lowers first quarter dividend

The commercial landlord is attempting to fully cover the dividend by earnings
May 20, 2020

LXI Reit (LXI) expects to pay a lower first quarter dividend for the 2021 financial year as it seeks to ensure earnings fully cover the dividend against a potential decline in rental income. The 1.3p a share dividend will be paid in September and is down on the 1.4375p payment for the final quarter of its 2020 financial year.

IC TIP: Hold at 105p

Rent equivalent to 6.8 per cent of the contracted rent roll was outstanding rent at the March quarter payment date but the commercial landlord has agreed deferral terms with some tenants, leaving 3.2 per cent outstanding.
