Payout history (DPU)
Every payout per unit (DPU) AU8U has disclosed in our record, most recent first, each linking back to its source document. The yield above counts each period's full regular payout over the last 12 months — a placement advance is folded into its own period, while one-off specials and advances for a future period (shown separately below) are left out.
| Period | Type | Paid on | Payout | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2H FY2025 (1 Jul 2025 to 31 Dec 2025) | regular | 27 Mar 2026 | 2.00c | Source ↗ |
| 2H FY2025 — one-off debt-funded top-up from the CapitaMall Yuhuating divestment (excluded from trailing yield; regular 2H DPU is 2.00c, and 2.49 + 2.00 + 0.33 = the issuer's 4.82c FY2025 total) | special | 27 Mar 2026 | 0.33c | Source ↗ |

What this yield doesn't tell you
- Yield is not total return. AU8U's total return also depends on the change in unit price, which this figure ignores.
- Distributions (DPU) are not guaranteed the way a bond coupon is — the REIT manager can cut the distribution per unit if income or capital conditions require it.
- Unit prices generally fall when interest rates rise, since REITs compete with bonds for income-seeking capital and are typically leveraged.
- An unusually high yield can signal distress — the market may be pricing in a distribution cut or refinancing risk (a "yield trap"), not a bargain.
- AU8U is not capital-guaranteed and is taxed differently from SGS/SSB: SGS and SSB interest paid to individuals is tax-exempt in Singapore, while REIT distributions run a separate regime that depends on the component (taxable, tax-exempt, or capital). See iras.gov.sg for the current rules.
