The company said the slump in revaluation gains was the result of its &#8220;maturing portfolio that generates more stable cash flows&#8221;. &#013;<br \/>\nNonetheless, net rental income rose by 30.5 per cent to $10.7m compared with $8.2m in the first quarter of 2016.The company said that the increase reflected 20 new office leases being signed at its Index Tower office block in Dubai as well as income from Jebel Ali School and the first rental payments from British Columbia Canadian School.Emirates Reit said that its total portfolio value stood at $763.5m, an increase of 10 per cent compared with the first quarter of 2016 when it stood at $692.2m. &#013;<br \/>\n&#8220;The major improvement we achieved in funds from operations shows that we are on track to achieve our goal of paying out a higher dividend to the owners of the Reit,&#8221; said Sylvain Vieujot, the chief executive of Equitativa Dubai, the Reit Manager.lbarnard@thenational.aeFollow The National&#8217;s Business section on
