A copy of the annual report and accounts will be posted to shareholders shortly. A copy will also be available from the Company's website, www.kandc-reit.co.uk.

Highlights:

   --           Revenue up 240% to GBP514,746 (2016: GBP151,417) 
   --           Gross profit up 343% to GBP404,202 (2016: GBP91,177) 
   --           NAV per share of 8.57p at 30 June 2017 (2016: 9.42p) 
   --           Year-end portfolio valuation of GBP7.24 million (2016: GBP7.13 million) 

-- Company issued GBP599,000 of new equity and GBP350,000 of restricted preference shares in the year

Commenting on the results, Michael Davies, Chairman of K&C, said:

"K&C continued to make progress during the period despite the wider residential property market having to contend with a number of political and economic events. The Company successfully raised capital and made further investment in the portfolio to improve performance. As such, revenue has grown through ground rents, sales commissions and lease extensions and occupancy levels remain close to 100 per cent. Post year-end, the Company completed the acquisition of three residential units at its freehold Heathside property in Hampstead for GBP935,000, with refurbishing and improvements underway.

"The Board continues to find and be shown interesting acquisition opportunities and looks forward to updating the market in due course on further progress and asset developments."

Notes to Editors:

K&C's objective is to build a substantial residential property portfolio that generates secure income flow for shareholders through the acquisition of SPVs (Special Purpose Vehicles) with inherent historical capital gains. The Directors intend that the group will acquire, develop and manage residential property assets in Central London and other key residential areas in the UK.

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

This is K&C REIT plc's third Annual Report since its admission to AIM.

Market and strategy

The Group operates in the UK residential private rented sector (PRS). It seeks to acquire:

   --           under-managed rented property assets and portfolios 

The team's considerable PRS expertise enables them to improve portfolios and, importantly, tenant experience at under-managed properties, through asset and property management activity. This has resulted in higher rental and property values.

   --           in lower price segments 

The focus on lower price segments ensures that the portfolio is directed towards the highest area of tenant and buyer demand. This is defensive in a downturn and shows strong growth in an upturn.

   --           held within UK-incorporated companies 

The REIT structure itself provides K&C with the opportunity to capitalise on the advantages afforded to REITs to provide an efficient exit route for vendors of SPVs, in particular, managing deferred capital gains tax liabilities.

The residential sales market has slowed over the last year, particularly in higher price-band properties in Central London. The impact of the Brexit vote, a more difficult economy, an inconclusive general election result and significant tax changes, particularly for 'buy-to-let' landlords, all taking place within a relatively short period of time, have been difficult for the market to digest.

It is important to note that, across the UK as a whole, prices and rental values continue to rise, albeit at slower rates. Indeed, the Group's assets, which, on a unit basis, are all in the lower price bands (studio, one and two beds), have performed well.

The positive overall economic fundamentals in the residential sector - strong demand and shortage of supply - will, in our view, deliver attractive rental and capital value performance across the UK over the medium term

Investment and operations

Osprey has exceeded expectations, having significantly increased revenue from ground rents, sales commissions, lease extensions and other management income. We have invested in the operations of the business and believe that Osprey is well positioned to continue its strong performance in the future.

The Coleherne Road apartments have continued to perform well. The small size of the units (studio, one- and two-bed flats) is exactly what the market is looking for. This has meant that occupancy has been maintained at close to 100 per cent and rents have increased by eight per cent since acquisition in July 2015.

The Group considered a number of UK residential investment opportunities during the year. Post the year-end, the Group completed the acquisition of three residential units at its freehold Heathside property in Hampstead for GBP935,000 (accepting the surrender of 67-year leasehold interests) using funds raised from the issue of convertible loan notes. The Company continues to implement its value-adding asset-management plan at this property of creating 'marriage value' through the buy-in of leasehold units.

Financial

Income increased from GBP151,417 to GBP514,746 in the financial year. The Group reports a consolidated operating loss before separately disclosed administrative items of GBP636,896, which includes abortive and ongoing acquisition costs of approximately GBP200,000. The operating loss of GBP1,029,215 includes a non-cash share-based payment charge of GBP392,319.

During the year, the Company issued GBP599,000 of new ordinary shares at just over 10 pence per share and GBP350,000 of restricted preference shares at 1p per share. The funds raised have been used to maintain the Group's property assets and cover working capital requirements.

On 9 July 2017, the Company issued 6% Loan Notes in the total sum of GBP1.35 million, a proportion of which are convertible into ordinary shares. GBP950,000 had been received in advance at the year-end. The loan notes are redeemable by the Company on 30 June 2020. This capital injection has been used primarily to acquire and refurbish the three Heathside units referred to above.

The net asset value per share at 30 June 2017 is 8.57p. The post-balance sheet active asset management, acquisitions and light refurbishment in the Osprey portfolio has crystallised further value in the portfolio of more than GBP400,000.

Portfolio valuation

The portfolio at year-end was valued at GBP7.24 million, an increase of GBP0.1 million compared to 30 June 2016.

Board changes

We were delighted that Dominic White joined the Board as chief executive in January 2017. His long background in property investment has already proved of great value to the Company.

Christopher James, Tim Oakley and Patricia Farley stepped down from the board at the end of March. Christopher and Tim continue to play important roles as members of the senior management team while Patricia's property expertise and experience remains available to the business. Oliver Vaughan became a non-executive director of the Company in May 2017.

Future prospects

During the year, the Group has raised capital, restructured its Board, and, since year-end, acquired valuable assets. It has continued to build the positive momentum from the previous year.

The Company aims to deliver a strong and growing covered dividend from rental streams and net asset value growth through the professional management of residential assets and the acquisition and management of SPVs with attractive and undervalued portfolios. We have built a significant pipeline of potential UK residential investments that, if acquired, would deliver this outcome.

The Board continues to find and be shown interesting acquisition opportunities and I hope that I will be able to report further positive developments to you before too long.

STRATEGIC REPORT

The directors present the strategic report of K&C REIT plc ('K&C' or the 'Company') and its subsidiaries (together, the 'Group') for the year ended 30 June 2017. The Company was incorporated in England and Wales on 10 June 2014.

PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY

The Group carries on the business of acquiring and managing residential property in the UK for letting to third parties on long and short leases. At the year-end, the Group consisted of the Company and three subsidiaries.

   1.        K&C (Coleherne) Limited owns a freehold residential property in Chelsea, London 

2. K&C (Osprey) Limited owns the freehold of several retirement properties let on long leases to residents and provides management services in respect of these properties and to third party landlords

   3.        K&C (Newbury) Limited owns no property and is now effectively dormant. 

GROUP STRATEGY

The directors intend to build a significant presence in the residential letting market, primarily through the acquisition of UK-registered special purpose vehicles that own residential property for letting to third parties.

RESULTS

The Group reports an operating loss from operating activities of GBP1,029,215 for the year to 30 June 2017.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS AND FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

The Board has reviewed whether the Annual Report, taken as a whole, presents a fair, balanced and understandable summary of the Group's position and prospects, and believes that it provides the information necessary for shareholders to assess the Group's position, performance, and strategy.

Information on the financial position and development of the Group is set out in the Chairman's Statement, the report of the directors and the annexed financial statements.

FINANCIAL KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS

The directors and management team review a variety of key performance indicators to monitor and improve Group performance, including:

   A.       At property level 
   i.          Rent per ft(2) compared with comparable market data and with other units in the asset 
   ii.         Vacancy rate in terms of number of units available and potential rental income 

iii. Management costs as a percentage of rental income (including repairs and maintenance, insurance, cleaning, agents' fees, legal fees, utilities and council tax)

   iv.         Gross and net yield compared with target levels 
   v.          Marginal increase in income as a percentage of capital expenditure 
   vi.         Outstanding rents as a percentage of rental income 
   vii.        Implementation of property plans compared with target. 
   B.       At Group level 
   i.          Assets under management compared with target 
   ii.         Overheads as a percentage of gross/net rental income compared with target. 

No analysis of performance compared to these KPIs has been provided because the diverse nature of the assets owned by the subsidiary companies, and the changes to the operating models initiated by the Group, make such analyses at this stage of their ownership potentially misleading.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Board regularly reviews the risks to which the Group is exposed and ensures through its meetings and regular reporting that these risks are minimised as far as possible.

The principal risks and uncertainties facing the Group at this stage in its development are:

   --           Financing and liquidity risk 

The Company has an ongoing requirement to fund its activities through the equity markets and in future to obtain finance for property acquisition and management. There is no certainty that such funds will be available when needed.

   --           Financial instruments 

Details of risks associated with the Group's financial instruments are given in the notes to the financial statements.

   --           Valuations 

The valuation of the investment property portfolio is inherently subjective as it is made on the basis of assumptions made by the valuer that may not prove to be accurate. The outcome of this judgment is significant to the Group in terms of its investment decisions and results.

INTERNAL CONTROLS AND RISK MANAGEMENT

The directors are responsible for the Group's system of internal control. Although no system of internal control can provide absolute assurance against material misstatement or loss, the Group's system is designed to provide reasonable assurance that problems are identified on a timely basis and dealt with appropriately.

In carrying out their responsibilities, the directors have put in place a framework of controls to ensure as far as possible that ongoing financial performance is monitored in a timely manner, that, where required, corrective action is taken and that risk is identified as early as practically possible. The directors have reviewed the effectiveness of internal control.

The Board, subject to delegated authority, reviews, among other things, capital investment, property sales and purchases, additional borrowing facilities, guarantees and insurance arrangements.

BRIBERY RISK

The Group has adopted an anti-corruption policy and whistle-blowing policy under the Bribery Act 2010. Notwithstanding this, the Group may be held liable for offences under that Act committed by its employees or subcontractors whether or not the Group or the directors have knowledge of the commission of such offences.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Annual Report contains certain forward-looking statements that have been made by the directors in good faith based on the information available at the time of the approval of the annual report and financial statements. By their nature, such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that will or may occur in the future. Actual results may differ from those expressed in such statements.

OUTLOOK

The Group took significant steps forward through its admission to AIM, achieving REIT status and enhancing the performance of its first two acquisitions. It now intends to build on these achievements through further purchases of high quality assets that will be able to support an increasing income yield. The Group is currently investigating several potential acquisitions. To make further acquisitions, the Group will be required to raise more capital and it is working closely with funding sources, both equity and debt providers, to achieve this objective.

REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS

The directors present their report with the financial statements of the Company and the Group for the year ended 30 June 2017.

A review of the business, risks and uncertainties and future developments is included in the Chairman's Statement, the Strategic Report and the notes to the financial statements.

DIVIDS

The directors do not recommend payment of a dividend for the year (2016 - GBPnil).

Political donations

The Group made no political donations during the year (2016 - GBPnil).

Corporate governance statement

The Board is committed to maintaining high standards of corporate governance. The UK Corporate Governance Code, published by the Financial Reporting Council, sets out standards of good practice in relation to board leadership and effectiveness, remuneration, accountability and relations with shareholders, providing principles of good governance and a code of best practice for listed companies. The UK Corporate Governance Code does not apply to AIM companies. However, shareholders expect companies in which they invest to be properly governed.

The Company's corporate governance procedures take due regard of the principles of good governance set out in the UK Corporate Governance Code, having regard to the size and the stage of development of the Company. Nonetheless, the Company has not formally adopted any specific corporate governance code.

The Company has established audit, AIM compliance and remuneration committees, with formally delegated duties and responsibilities.

Audit committee

The audit committee currently comprises James Cane and Michael Davies, the chairman. The committee is responsible for ensuring the financial performance, position and prospects of the Group are properly monitored and reported on, and for meeting the auditor and reviewing their reports relating to accounts and internal controls.

SUBSTANTIAL SHAREHOLDINGS

As at 11 October 2017, the directors had been notified that the following shareholders own a disclosable interest of three per cent or more in the ordinary shares of the Company:

   5)         LOSS PER SHARE 

Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the loss attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year.

Fully diluted earnings per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares adjusted to assume the conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.

In the opinion of the directors, all of the outstanding share options and warrants are anti-dilutive and, hence, basic and fully diluted loss per share are the same.

Acquisition of K&C (Coleherne) Limited

On 3 July 2015, the Company acquired the entire issued share capital of K&C (Coleherne) Limited (formerly Silcott Properties Limited) for GBP3,630,000, satisfied by cash of GBP3,330,000 and the issuance of ordinary shares to the value of GBP300,000. In the director's opinion, the net assets of K&C (Coleherne) Limited, consisting solely of an investment property in London that was independently valued on 22 July 2015 at GBP4 million, were worth in excess of the amount paid and hence gave rise to negative goodwill.

Net assets acquired were as follows:
