Waypoint REIT recorded a 3.4% increase in distributable earnings in the first half of 2026 to 8.59 AUD cents per share and a slightly higher net tangible asset value of 2.92 AUD. The company confirmed the annual dividend of 0.1714 AUD per share and reported strong tenant retention and positive rent reversion on lease renewals. The stock slipped slightly as investors weighed higher interest costs, a subdued transaction market and weaker earnings expectations for H2; gearing is 32.4% and liquidity is around 100 million AUD. Management warned of higher hedging costs, possible earnings declines in the second half and limited sale opportunities for non-core assets. » Plus sur de.investing.com
