  1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information about the report industry investment rating is provided in the given content. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - After the current REITs market has experienced a correction, its valuation has become reasonable. It offers high investment cost - effectiveness for long - term allocation funds, and investors can seize the opportunity to allocate high - quality projects during the adjustment period [1]. - It is recommended to lay out along two main lines based on the third - quarter performance: first, sectors with strong fundamentals, such as data centers and rental housing; second, REITs whose fourth - quarter performance is expected to improve quarter - on - quarter, such as outlet projects benefiting from the National Day holiday and the "Double 11" promotion [1]. - Attention should be paid to the structural entry opportunities that may be brought by the concentrated lifting of strategic placement shares. In November - December 2025, the public REITs market will see a round of concentrated lifting of restrictions, with a monthly lifting scale of over 1 billion shares. The short - term liquidity pressure will cause the valuation of some high - quality targets to bear pressure, but it also provides a window for low - level layout [1]. 3. Summary According to the Directory 3.1 Market Review - In the third quarter of 2025, the REITs market showed a profit - taking correction. The CSI Total Return REITs Index fluctuated downward, mainly driven by profit - taking needs after the market's rise in the first half of the year, the narrowing of the primary - secondary market valuation gap, and the suppression of the bond market sentiment by the strong performance of the equity market. After the long - term interest rate stabilized, the index recovered slightly, but then continued to decline due to a lack of upward momentum and low trading volume [10]. - In terms of asset attributes, the overall decline of equity - type REITs was higher than that of operating - right - type REITs. In the third quarter, most sectors recorded declines, with only the data center sector rising by 1.2%, while the energy sector had the largest decline of 9.84% [11]. 3.2 Quarterly Report Performance Overview - In the third quarter of 2025, 73 public REITs completed their quarterly reports. The municipal environmental protection sector led the market in terms of operating income, followed by the rental housing and consumption sectors. The performance of other sectors was differentiated [15]. - The industrial park sector continued to face pressure, with most of the fund revenues declining year - on - year by more than 10%. The warehousing and logistics sector, although affected by the "price - for - volume" strategy, was more resilient than the industrial park sector. The rental housing sector was relatively stable, with the operating income of many REITs increasing year - on - year. The consumption REITs sector showed strong performance elasticity, with the income of most REITs rising quarter - on - quarter, except for the outlet format [15]. - The data center sector had no historical comparable data but had high - quality assets and good operating conditions. The highway sector's performance mostly declined, and the energy sector's performance fluctuated significantly. The municipal environmental protection sector performed outstandingly, with both year - on - year and quarter - on - quarter increases in operating income [16]. 3.3 Project Operation Status 3.3.1 Industrial Parks - The industrial park REITs sector showed a decline in both volume and price, with an average occupancy rate of 81.7% at the end of the third quarter of 2025, a year - on - year and quarter - on - quarter decrease of 4pct and 0.1pct respectively, and an average rent of 89.5 yuan/square meter/month, a year - on - year and quarter - on - quarter decline of 9.9% and 1.2% respectively [21]. - Factory - type projects were more resilient, while incubator projects were at the bottoming stage. Most industrial parks continued to adopt a price - cut strategy to stabilize the occupancy rate, and the second - tier cities faced greater pressure in attracting investment [22]. 3.3.2 Warehousing and Logistics - The overall operation of the warehousing and logistics sector was under pressure but remained resilient. The average occupancy rate of warehousing and logistics REITs was 92.2% at the end of the third quarter of 2025, basically unchanged year - on - year and slightly down 3.4pct quarter - on - quarter. Projects with a high proportion of related - party leases were more stable [29]. - Affected by market demand and supply, the warehousing and logistics REITs continued the "price - for - volume" strategy, with the average rent dropping 5.0% year - on - year and 1.5% quarter - on - quarter to 32.1 yuan/square meter/month at the end of the third quarter of 2025 [29]. 3.3.3 Rental Housing - The overall occupancy rate of rental housing projects remained high and increased year - on - year, reaching 96.1% at the end of the third quarter of 2025, a year - on - year increase of 0.7pct and a quarter - on - quarter decrease of 0.05pct. The rent levels of each project fluctuated slightly, with an increase or decrease of no more than 1% quarter - on - quarter, which was normal business fluctuation [36]. 3.3.4 Consumer Infrastructure - The occupancy rate of consumer REITs remained high and was relatively stable year - on - year and quarter - on - quarter, reaching 97.4% at the end of the third quarter of 2025, a year - on - year increase of 0.1pct and a quarter - on - quarter decrease of 0.3pct. The rent of some consumer - type REITs showed seasonal fluctuations due to the operation mode [42]. 3.3.5 Data Centers - There are only two data center REITs, Runze Technology REIT and Wanguo Data REIT, both listed on August 8, 2025. The third - quarter reports showed that the underlying projects of the two REITs were operating smoothly, with a utilization rate close to 100% [45]. 3.3.6 Highways - Although the summer travel and tourism boosted the toll revenue of highways quarter - on - quarter, the overall performance of highway projects was still weak year - on - year. In the third quarter of 2025, the toll revenue decreased by 2.4% year - on - year and increased by 13.2% quarter - on - quarter, and the average daily natural traffic volume decreased by 3.7% year - on - year and increased by 16.2% quarter - on - quarter. The impact of the opening of competing highways continued [46]. 3.3.7 Energy Infrastructure - In the third quarter of 2025, the power generation of energy projects fluctuated significantly, and the overall operation performance was poor. Among the 6 energy REITs with year - on - year data, only the settlement power of TBEA REIT increased year - on - year, while the others decreased [51]. 3.3.8 Municipal Environmental Protection - The underlying assets of the municipal environmental protection sector were operating steadily, and some projects showed a steady - to - rising trend in volume and price. For example, the domestic waste treatment volume and kitchen waste treatment volume of Shougang Green Energy REIT increased by 10.1% and 27.7% respectively year - on - year, and the settlement power increased by 22.8% year - on - year [56]. 3.4 Public REITs Investment Recommendations - The allocation value of REITs is gradually emerging, and the P/NAV has returned to near the average. The long - term capital allocation window has been opened [59]. - Fundamentals are the core factor determining the secondary - market performance of REITs. When the market enters the valuation repair stage after a general decline, sectors with good performance have stronger rebound momentum. The data center, rental housing, consumption, and municipal environmental protection sectors are the focus of market funds during the valuation repair process [62]. - In addition to being driven by fundamentals, the performance of the REITs market is also affected by factors such as the risk - free interest rate and the policy environment. In the context of potential disturbances in the bond market at the end of the year and the lack of new funds entering the market, trading - type funds need to be vigilant about short - term fluctuations and participate carefully [63].
