SHED QD Newswire - FY results analysis from QuotedData

20th June 2024

·    Urban Logistics REIT (SHED) has reported its full year results for the year end 31 March 2024 this morning. It has been another year of strong operational performance, with net rental income up 8.4% to £57.4m. Valuations have stabilised, with EPRA net tangible assets (NTA) was down just 1.3% to 160.27p.

·    The value of the company's portfolio of mid-box urban logistics assets was stable over the 12 months falling just 0.3% on a like-for-like basis to £1.1bn. Adjusted earnings per share was down slightly to 6.89p (2023: 6.93p), due to higher interest costs on its debt.

·    Chairman Nigel Rich said: "The portfolio has performed well through the property cycle, and we are well set to grow earnings, allowing us to maintain and ultimately grow the dividend. We continue to believe that our shares trade at a value which does not reflect either the demand for the underlying real estate or the operational performance of the company, and believe there is significant upside to be captured in the years ahead."

QuotedData's view: The manager's expertise in asset management has come to the fore again in these annual results, with 35 lease events signed at an average 19% like-for-like rental uplift. The asset management also had the effect of offsetting the impact of yield expansion in its portfolio, with valuation remaining remarkably stable.

Letting up vacant space, which stood at 5.8%, will be a top priority for the manager, with a deal that would add £1.0m to the rent roll close and future lettings in the works.
