On the like-for-like portfolio, the weighted average capitalisation rate softened by 4bps to 6.37% at December 2018 (6.33% at June 2018). Including the impact of the twelve acquisition properties (weighted average cap rate of 6.63%), the total portfolio capitalisation rate is 6.43% at December 2018.

The components of this increase were: Like-for-like Australian properties valuation increased by $11.4m, or 0.5%. The increase is driven by an increase in like-for-like valuation NOI of 0.5%, offset by overall capitalisation rate softening of 4bps; Valuation of development properties increased by $10.0m, comprising $7.8m from Shell Cove and $2.2m from Bushland Beach, reflecting $9.7m of capitalised development costs to date and fair value uplift of $0.3m; and Acquisitions completed during the period added $677.9m, being Sturt Mall in Wagga Wagga, NSW (acquired for $73.0m), Miami One in Miami, QLD (acquired for $31.9m) and a portfolio of ten assets acquired from Vicinity (acquired for $573.0m). #SCAPropertyGroup #Retail
