  2. Reason for Disposition

    Highlights

    • Disposition of an office property with unrealized losses at price exceeding its book value, thereby increasing NAV

    • Entire gain on sale of 580-million-yen to be returned to unitholders in the August 2026 fiscal period

    JMF aims to enhance total returns (DPU and NAV) and expand the growth cycle using "internal growth" and "return of gains on sales" as drivers.

    The Property is located just 3-min walk from Edogawabashi Station for excellent access to transportation, but it has long been positioned as a candidate property for sale because the area is not ideal for office use and carries downside risk following tenant vacancies. Furthermore, the Property's NOI yield after depreciation is below the portfolio average and holds unrealized losses. Therefore, JMF determined that disposing the Property at a price exceeding its book value (30.0% above the appraisal value), returning the entire gain on sale to the unitholders, and eliminating the unrealized losses through the sale to improve NAV would maximize unitholder value. Based on this, the decision to sell the Property was made.

    The approximately 580 million yen obtained from disposition of the Property is scheduled to be fully returned to investors in the August 2026 (49th) fiscal period.

    In addition, the proceeds from sales, excluding the gain on sale, are planned to be utilized as replacement capital for assets with profitability and growth potential.

    Please also refer to the news release titled as "Supplemental Material Concerning Today's Press Release" dated today.
