| 2025 DDMPR ANNUAL REPORT |
As the Philippine real estate landscape continues to evolve, DDMP REIT, INC. (DDMPR)—the commercial REIT platform of DoubleDragon Corporation—has released its 2025 Annual Report. This analysis dissects the company's financial health across three fundamental pillars: the Income Statement, Balance Sheet, and Cash Flow Statement, providing an objective look at its current standing and future prospects.
1. Income Statement: Navigating Rental Headwinds
DDMPR’s revenue model is primarily driven by its portfolio of Grade A office buildings in DD Meridian Park, Pasay City.
- Total Revenue: The company reported total revenues of ₱3.88 billion for 2025, showing relative stability in overall earnings, though rent income specifically saw a decline in recent years.
- Rent Income: In 2025, rent income (including aircon charges) was ₱1.61 billion, a decrease from ₱1.77 billion in 2024 and ₱1.82 billion in 2023. This downward trend is attributed to rental concessions provided to selected tenants and shifts in tenant occupancy.
- Net Income: The net income for 2025 stood at ₱3.88 billion. It is important to note that a significant portion of this figure includes non-cash gains, such as ₱2.27 billion from fair value adjustments of investment properties.

2. Balance Sheet: Asset-Rich and Low Leverage
DDMPR maintains a robust and asset-heavy balance sheet, characteristic of a stable REIT.
- Total Assets: As of December 31, 2025, total assets reached ₱64.91 billion, up from ₱63.08 billion in 2024.
- Investment Properties: The core of the balance sheet is its investment property, valued at ₱62.68 billion in 2025, an increase from ₱60.67 billion the previous year due to appreciation in asset values.
- Equity: Total equity grew to ₱63.0 billion in 2025, a 3.7% increase from ₱60.8 billion in 2024, reflecting steady growth in the underlying value of the REIT's portfolio.

- Distributable Income: For 2025, the company calculated a distributable income of ₱1.78 billion.
- Dividend Track Record: DDMPR declared total dividends of ₱1.69 billion from its 2025 earnings, surpassing the minimum regulatory requirements for REITs.
- Liquidity: While the company holds significant real estate assets, its cash position remained modest at ₱80.86 million at year-end 2025, though this was an improvement from ₱59.79 million in 2024.

The Bull Case: Reasons for Optimism
- Strategic Location: The DD Meridian Park portfolio is situated at the "entrance" of the Bay Area, offering a competitive advantage due to its proximity to major transportation hubs (EDSA, Macapagal Ave, and Roxas Blvd).
- High-Quality Assets: The portfolio consists of Grade A office buildings with LEED Gold/Silver certifications, which are increasingly preferred by premium BPO and corporate tenants.
- Strong Sponsor Support: As a subsidiary of DoubleDragon Corporation, DDMPR benefits from the Sponsor’s deep experience in property management and development.
The Bear Case: Potential Risks
- Occupancy Pressure: The flagship DoubleDragon Plaza saw an occupancy rate of 73.64% as of late 2025, and DoubleDragon Center East faced a significantly lower occupancy of 6.63%. These figures highlight the ongoing challenges in the office leasing market.
- Concentration Risk: All of the company's assets are located in a single geographic area (Pasay City), making it highly sensitive to the local economic conditions and supply-demand dynamics of the Bay Area.
- Sector Sensitivity: The business is heavily reliant on the BPO and corporate office sectors, which may be impacted by evolving work-from-home trends or changes in government regulations.
Summary
DDMP REIT, INC. enters 2026 with a solid foundation of high-value assets and a consistent history of dividend payments. While the company faces headwinds in terms of declining rental income and varied occupancy levels across its towers, its low leverage and strategic location in a prime business hub provide a safety net. The key to future growth will lie in the management's ability to fill remaining vacancies and capitalize on the long-term appreciation of its Bay Area landholdings.
