1. Report Industry Investment Rating The report does not provide an industry investment rating. 2. Core Viewpoints - In 25Q4, most asset performances showed marginal improvement. The revenue and EBITDA of public utilities, consumption, industrial parks, and warehousing logistics all increased, while the EBITDA decline of energy and transportation significantly narrowed year-on-year. However, the rental income and EBITDA of affordable rental housing decreased slightly, and IDC benefited from long - term contracts with major clients, maintaining stable performance [3]. - The performance of different sectors in the future will be affected by various factors. Public utilities are expected to have stable cash - flows, but performance differentiation depends on the active management ability of operators. The consumption sector is expected to have a compensatory increase in 26Q1, and its performance is expected to be stable in the long - term. Affordable rental housing will face new supply shocks in 2026, and different operators need to find a balance between volume and price. The energy sector's revenue stability depends on power trading strategies. The traffic sector's performance is related to road network planning and cost control. The warehousing sector's rent is expected to decline in the short - term, and the industrial park sector will enter a deep adjustment period [3][35][56][80][102][126][147][175]. 3. Summary by Directory 3.1 Overview - In 25Q4, the performance of most assets showed a marginal improvement trend. The revenue and EBITDA of consumption, industrial parks, and warehousing logistics increased quarter - on - quarter, and the revenue of public utilities increased year - on - year.

The revenue, profit, and available distribution amount of Shougang Water Service REIT decreased quarter - on - quarter, and the revenue, EBITDA, and available distribution amount of Shaoxing Raw Water REIT decreased quarter - on - quarter [27]. - In 2026, the cash - flows of public - utility REITs are expected to be stable, but the performance differentiation depends on the active management ability of operators. Attention should be paid to seasonal fluctuations, external interventions, and local new competition [35]. 3.3 Consumption - There are 12 listed consumption REITs, involving four types of sub - assets: shopping centers, outlet malls, supermarkets + community commerce, and agricultural product markets. The project management is generally carried out by high - quality commercial real - estate operating enterprises [39]. - In 25Q4, the eight consumption REITs achieved good operating performance. The rental rate and rent generally increased slightly year - on - year/quarter - on - quarter or remained basically the same, and the collection rate was close to full collection.

The available distribution amount of most projects changed little or increased year - on - year, but the available distribution amount of some projects decreased significantly [65][69][74]. - In 2026, affordable rental housing REITs will face new supply shocks. First - tier cities' rents are expected to be more resilient, while second - and third - tier cities' rents may face greater pressure. Different operators need to find a sustainable balance between volume and price [80]. 3.5 Energy - As of January 23, 2026, 9 energy infrastructure REITs had been recruited. In 25Q4, China National Nuclear Power Clean Energy REIT was newly issued, and Beijing Energy Photovoltaic REIT completed its expansion [82]. - More than half of the energy REITs' power generation decreased year - on - year, and the power price generally declined year - on - year.

The available distribution amount of some projects increased significantly, while that of some projects decreased due to high maintenance costs [122]. - In 2026, the traffic performance of projects affected by diversion in 2025 is expected to improve year - on - year, and the performance of projects still facing diversion pressure depends on refined cost control [126]. 3.7 Warehousing Logistics - As of January 23, 2026, 11 warehousing logistics REITs had been issued, mainly located in first - tier cities and their surrounding areas and logistics hub cities [128]. - In 25Q4, the national warehousing logistics rental market still faced rent adjustment pressure, with "regional differentiation and overall pressure". The rent of market - oriented rental projects decreased, and the overall rental rate increased slightly. The rent of whole - lease projects was relatively stable, with small fluctuations [131][135][136]. - The revenue and profit margin generally weakened, but the available distribution amount increased quarter - on - quarter on average due to the year - end centralized dividends of newly - listed REITs [138][142]. - In the short - term, the national warehousing rent is expected to continue to decline.

The rental rate and collection rate of manufacturing parks were high, but the rent still faced downward pressure [155][159]. - The marginal improvement of fund revenue began to appear, but the EBITDA was still under pressure. The change trend of the available distribution amount of individual bonds was differentiated, and some industrial park REITs' secondary - market net value dropped to a low level, with the distribution rate reaching a new high in the past five periods [163][167][171]. - In 2026, the supply of industrial parks is expected to be at a high level, and the rental downward pressure will continue. Attention should be paid to high - quality projects with a good supply - demand pattern, marginal improvement in operating fundamentals, and a stable rent trend [175]. 3.9 IDC - Two listed IDC - REITs operate under long - term agreements with major clients. In 25Q4, their operation was stable, and the financial indicators increased significantly quarter - on - quarter [177][181]. - In 2026, the basic business of the two IDC projects is expected to be stable due to long - term agreements. Attention should be paid to cost - side changes, such as the construction progress of surrounding substations and the control of energy - efficiency indicators [185].

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].

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core Viewpoints of the Report - In 2025, the public - offering REITs market expanded in quality under normal - state issuance. With the dual - wheel drive of "first - offering + expansion - offering", the total market capitalization exceeded 220 billion yuan, and the market ecosystem became more mature. In 2026, it is expected to issue 20 - 30 projects, and the differentiation among projects will intensify [3][11]. - Expansion - offering is an inevitable path for the development of China's public - offering REITs market. In 2025, the expansion - offering channel reopened, and in 2026, with policy implementation and process optimization, it may become another main line in the market [3]. - The secondary market of REITs in 2025 showed a "rising first and then falling" trend. To improve liquidity, policy support is expected, such as including REITs in the Shanghai - Hong Kong and Shenzhen - Hong Kong Stock Connect, launching REITs - ETF and index fund products, and guiding long - term funds like annuities and pensions to enter the market [3]. - The fundamentals of different asset types of REITs have shown different trends. Investors should select Alpha assets to make investment decisions [3]. 3.

Two new IDC - REITs were added, enriching the asset types [3][11]. - The net - underwriting and online subscription yields of REITs were calculated. The net - underwriting yield was significantly higher than the online yield. The net - underwriting yield of 10 - 200 million yuan of funds was the highest, reaching 3.50% [13][15]. - The strategic placement of REITs in 2025 had a 100% winning rate and an average floating profit of 35%. The number of strategic investment institutions increased to 275, a 6% increase from 2024 [3]. - The number of new - offering products increased to nearly a thousand, and the winning rate dropped below 1%. In October, due to limited initial listing gains and overlapping fundraising periods, the enthusiasm for new - offering decreased, and the winning rate rebounded [20][22]. - In terms of institutional participation, 270 institutions participated in the net - underwriting inquiry, a 69% increase from 2024. Among them, the number of securities firms, insurance funds, private funds, and public funds increased significantly. Insurance funds led in terms of the proposed subscription amount, followed by securities firms [28]. - The strategic placement became more difficult for institutions to obtain. The number of strategic placement institutions per REIT reached a new high, indicating increased scarcity [34]. - **Valuation and Pricing** - From January to October 2025, the first - day and first - four - day closing cumulative increases of REITs reached new highs. However, since September and October, as the first - offering valuation increased, the initial listing gains narrowed, and the net - underwriting quotation became more cautious [39]. - From January to September 2025, the first - offering valuation had an average discount of 25%. Since October, the discount rate has significantly narrowed to less than 10%, and even less than 5% for some projects [40]. - **2026 First - offering Expectations** - Policy support is expected to expand the market and increase the number of asset types. The approval efficiency will be improved, and the average time from acceptance to registration will be shortened to 100 days [45][57]. - The expected number of first - offerings in 2026 is 20 - 30, with a relatively small average fundraising scale. The differentiation among projects will intensify, and the initial listing gains are expected to narrow to 5% - 10% [64][71]. - Under the neutral scenario, the net - underwriting and online new - offering yields of 10 - million - 100 - million - yuan funds are expected to be 3.21% and 0.61% respectively [75]. 3.2.扩募潮起谋新篇，资产混装开新局 - **Importance of Expansion - offering** - Due to high - dividend requirements and leverage limitations, expansion - offering is an important way for the external expansion of public - offering REITs. It can optimize the asset portfolio and improve the anti - risk ability [81]. - **Policy Changes** - In September 2025, the 782nd document shortened the expansion - offering threshold from 12 months to 6 months and supported cross - industry asset mixing, which is expected to shorten the expansion - offering cycle and enrich the asset types [86]. - **2025 Expansion - offering Situation** - After the first four REITs' expansion - offerings in 2023, the expansion - offering channel reopened in 2025. By October, 2 REITs' expansion - offering shares were listed, 3 were in the process, and 3 were under review. The issuance methods were diversified, including private placement and rights offering [90]. - The returns of investors participating in the expansion - offering mainly come from the market discount at the time of issuance and the increase in the dividend rate. The initial batch of expansion - offering projects had losses in the bidding and strategic placement, but 2 projects still had floating profits by the end of October [93][94]. - **Potential Expansion - offering Projects** - Many original equity holders of listed REITs hold potential expansion - offering assets. There are currently 5 expansion - offering projects in progress, and the AVIC Jingneng Photovoltaic REIT is the first project with mixed - asset expansion (photovoltaic + hydropower) [100][101]. - **Case Studies of Expansion - offering Projects** - The Beijing Affordable Housing REIT's expansion - offering assets are slightly inferior in quality to the first - offering assets, but the overall dividend rate is expected to increase [109]. - The AVIC Jingneng Photovoltaic REIT's expansion - offering of "photovoltaic + hydropower" is expected to significantly increase the net profit, EBITDA, and distributable amount in 2026, and the cash distribution rate will also increase [117]. - The Huaxia China Resources Commercial REIT plans to expand by purchasing the Suzhou Kunshan Mixc project.

In Q4, some defensive assets' performance was excellent, and some configuration funds began to enter the market [122][124]. - **Investor Structure** - As of the first half of 2025, securities firms and insurance companies dominated the REITs market. Their "heavy - configuration, light - trading" strategy restricted the secondary - market liquidity. Different types of institutions had different configuration preferences [128]. - **Measures to Improve Liquidity** - Including REITs in the Shanghai - Hong Kong and Shenzhen - Hong Kong Stock Connect, launching REITs - ETF and index fund products, and guiding long - term funds like annuities and pensions to enter the market are expected to improve the market liquidity [131]. 3.4.基本面殊途已现，精选Alpha定乾坤 - **Affordable Housing REITs** - In the past five quarters, the affordable housing REITs showed a pattern of "stable quantity and differentiated price". In 2026, the rental market will be affected by factors such as supply and tenant preferences in different regions. Rents in first - tier cities are expected to decline slightly, while those in core second - tier cities may stabilize or rise slightly [137]. - **Consumption REITs** - In 2025, the consumption REITs' operation was stable. The rental rate and collection rate remained high, and the rental efficiency fluctuated seasonally. With the adjustment of the supply - demand relationship and the release of new consumption demands, the asset managers of REITs adjusted the tenant mix. The increase in CPI in October is expected to support the valuation of consumption REITs [140].
