This was driven by the acquisitions of Bridge Crossing in Nashville and 105 Edgeview in August, as well as stronger performance from its existing portfolio, according to a stock exchange filing.

KORE’s gross revenue for 3Q2021 is 4.5% higher y-o-y at US$36 million, while net property income increased 5.6% y-o-y to US$21.7 million.
