KPREIT shareholders vote in favour of 1:1 Stock Split
Introduction
Mr Sinclair began the proceedings by welcoming us to this the 9th annual general meeting. He stated that “ KPREIT has now
developed into a real estate investment trust with properties in Jamaica, United States and Cayman Islands.” Mr. Sinclair highlighted
main performance indicators during the year such as the stock appreciation which increased by 42% year over year as well as
increasing dividend payments by 100%, making payments of USD $400,000 in FY2016 compared to US$200,000 paid in 2015, with a
1 year growth dividend yield that is the highest of its peers. Based on the appreciation of the stock price, Mr. Sinclair stated that the
company will be seeking to do a stock split to increase the volume of shares to be sold by ordinary shareholders. He noted that the
company is “91% owned by long term investors or managed funds and they want to encourage persons looking for short term returns
to invest in the company and as such the company is encouraged to do a stock split.

Revenue (Rental Income) for the FY2016 however saw a 20.38% increase year over year to total $130.46 million. Mr Richards
stated that “rental income was collected in 100%USD and this decision was made to hedge against inflation as the US market
was more stable than the JMD”.
Mr. Richards stated that “operating expenses saw a 3% decrease. The expenses were mainly direct expenses associated with
the purchase of properties which was 53.8% of the expenses accrued. Administrative expenses are not expected to increase and
the company does not need large volumes of staff to operate”.

Mr. Richards stated that in January 2017 KPREIT acquired a warehouse property on Spanish Town Road, Jamaica. According
to Mr. Richards this was against the backdrop of expected increases in property value for that area due to the improving
infrastructure. Mr. Richards also stated that it will continue to invest in Jamaica but noted its investments are mostly in
warehouse and office complexes. Mr. Richards revealed also that there is an ongoing investment in Westmoreland, Jamaica
and there is expected to be an announcement by the end of the month in that regard.
Mr. Richards stated that the company also invested in a property in the Cayman Islands along the West Bay Beach area which
is located in close vicinity to many hotels thus ensuring regular traffic to the location. He stated the apartment complex is more
than 90% occupied. With the Cayman economy recovering they expect to see gains in these investments in the near term.
With these acquisitions KPREIT’s investment portfolio has now moved from a 70% US and 30% Jamaican to 54%US, 32%
Jamaican and 14% Cayman this is in an effort to diversify the company’s portfolio and as a risk management strategy.

Turks and Caicos and the Florida area. These are mostly areas with a strong link to Jamaica”. He was asked about expansion outside
the Caribbean and Americas and stated that they are pursuing all markets that show potential for Real Estate and have strategies in
place to properly monitor these markets for any future investments which can provide not only acceptable yields but also require little
management.
