RAM Essential Services Property Fund reported a modest 0.5% increase in total income to A$28.4 million for the half year ended 31 December 2025, while profit after tax attributable to investors surged 121% to A$4.9 million.

The half-year financial report has been reviewed by auditor PKF, providing limited assurance on the figures as the group navigates a mixed performance of higher profit but weaker core operating cash flow and marginal asset value decline.
