Dexus (DXS.AX)

Resilient Core Steadies the Ship — Value Emerges at large NTA

Discount but Risks Remain

CITI'S TAKE

Dexus delivered a resilient FY26 result with AFFO of 45.0cps ahead of

expectations, and FY27 guidance of 37.5–39.5cps came in better than the

market feared. The core portfolio was the standout — office occupancy

jumped to 95.7% from 92.3%, well above the 85.1% CBD market average,

while industrial like-for-like income grew 8.3%. Management's $60M

APAC legal provision covers costs to date only, with no provision for future

claims — an unquantified tail risk that keeps investors cautious. FY27

guidance also excludes trading profits, asset sale contributions and

infrastructure FUM earnings, meaning headline earnings understate

underlying core performance. At ~$5.80, Dexus trades at an approximate

35% discount to NTA of $8.92 and a PE of ~10x — relatively cheap versus

peers — attracting value investors with a longer time horizon. The active

buyback and $2B+ capital release are constructive near-term catalysts.

FY26 Result: Core Beat, Headline Aided by Non-Recurrents — AFFO of 45cps

delivered on guidance; distributions maintained at 37cps (payout 82.1%). NTA per

security rose 1% to $8.92; gearing held at lower end of the 30–40% target range at

33.4%. FY27 AFFO guidance of 37.5–39.5cps came in ahead of market fears;

distributions held at 37cps. FY27 guidanc was better than market fears but excludes

trading profits, APAC outcomes, and FUM under review
