The integration of AC/C is progressing smoothly, contributing to a significant margin improvement of approximately 590 basis points in Q2 FY25 compared to H1 FY24 (pre-acquisition). Our core markets remain resilient, with occupancy levels continuing to rise. For Q2 and H1 FY25, occupancy stood at 75%, reflecting the ongoing demand for our assets.”
