JPR’s Evolution

Steady Expansion of Asset Size and Enhancement of Portfolio Quality

The fifth J-REIT to be publicly listed in Japan, Japan Prime Realty Investment Corporation (JPR) is a mixed-type J-REIT that invests in a combination of office buildings, urban retail properties, etc.
Since our listing, we have built up a track record of stable management by steadily enhancing asset size while pursuing diversified investment by asset class and area, which is an advantage of our portfolio management.
Going forward, we aim to improve the portfolio quality while steadily expanding the asset size through highly selective investment in prime properties.

At the time of listing, our portfolio management standards were as follows: the target investment ratio by area was approximately 60% for Tokyo vs. 40% for other regions, while the target investment ratio by asset class was approximately 80% for office properties vs. 20% for urban retail properties, etc. However, in the fiscal period ended December 2009 (16th fiscal period), we revised our standards, making it our policy to focus investment on Tokyo office properties.

Asset Class Investment Ratio
Office 70~90%
Urban retail properties, etc. 10~30%
