We are committed to providing the investment and media communities with timely and transparent
information on CMT’s business and performance.
The manager of CMT (Manager) regularly meets existing and potential investors and analysts in
one-on-one or group meetings, local and overseas conferences and roadshows. In 2014, we met or
held conference calls with about 300 institutional investors globally and took part in investor
conferences and roadshows in Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan, United Kingdom and Europe. We
constantly engage our growing base of debt investors, given CMT’s diversified sources of debt
funding. In August 2014, we participated in the ‘CapitaLand Debt Investors’ Day’, which was well
received and attended.
We made conscious efforts to engage more retail investors as well through large group seminars.
During the year, we participated in the UOB Kay Hian Seminar to educate retail investors on CMT’s
investment proposition. The audience had the opportunity to ask questions and interact with the Chief
Executive Officer of the Manager at the seminar. Currently, 21 local and foreign brokerage firms have
research coverage on CMT.
Approximately 16,000 registered Unitholders owned CMT units as at 31 December 2014. About
55.52% of the units in CMT were held by institutional investors. CapitaLand Limited held, through its
subsidiaries, 27.69% of the units in CMT while retail investors constituted the remaining 16.79%.
Investors from Singapore (excluding CapitaLand’s stake), United States and United Kingdom held
the largest portions of unitholdings in CMT at 14.22%, 12.39% and 13.15% respectively. Investors
from Hong Kong, Europe (excluding United Kingdom), Australia and other parts of Asia accounted
for the rest of the unitholdings.
Joint media and analysts’ results briefings are held every six months to provide updates on CMT’s
half-year and full-year financial and operational performance. The briefings are webcast ‘live’ and
viewers of the webcasts can send in questions online to be addressed by the management team on
the spot. In line with our commitment to deliver accurate and timely information to Unitholders and
the general public, financial results announcements are made within 23 days from the end of each
quarter during the year.
In addition, the annual general meeting (AGM) provides an important channel for communication
between the management and Unitholders. CMT convened its AGM in April 2014 with Unitholders
approving all resolutions tabled at the event. Voting for all the AGM resolutions were conducted via
polls.
General information on CMT including annual reports, property portfolio details and investor
presentations are updated regularly on the corporate website for investors and the general public.
All news releases and legal announcements are also made available on the Singapore Exchange
Securities Trading Limited (SGX-ST) website. Mall tours are regularly conducted for analysts,
investors and journalists who are keen to visit CMT’s properties to better understand the
performances of the various malls and the asset enhancement initiatives which are completed.
As part of our proactive corporate governance efforts and in line with the Monetary Authority of
Singapore’s Code of Corporate Governance 2012, we have put in place a Unitholders’
communication and investor relations policy to promote regular, effective and fair communication
with Unitholders. The detailed policy can be located on CMT’s corporate website under the ‘Investor
Relations’ section.
