SINGAPORE (Oct 31): The manager of Ascendas Hospitality trust (AHT) has announced a 2Q19 DPS of 1.46 cents, 2.8% higher than the 1.42 cents declared in 2Q18.
This came on the back of a 3% increase in income available for distribution to $16.6 million, compared to $16.1 million a year ago.
The improvement was attributed to savings in net finance costs and partial distribution of the proceeds from the divestment of the two hotels in Beijing.
