@specto not yet but its share price has dropped more than some of its peers but much better value elsewhere still. PCTN and CREI would make a good combo but as @Sky says both too independent but maybe AEWU or AIRE would be a good fit.

A while since I've looked at PCTN, but is it really better than say the near-certain returns at API, the yield at say EBOX, or the better sub-sector at say SHED?

Trading Update and Net Asset Value as at 31 December 2023 -

Lena Wilson CBE, Chair of Picton, commented:
"The real estate market showed continued resilience from an occupational perspective, with all three core sectors showing positive rental growth for the year. With capital values having seen on average a 25% write down since their 2022 peak, the outlook, assuming interest rates have peaked, will become supportive and as such we expect a stabilisation of values in 2024."

Michael Morris, Chief Executive of Picton, commented:
"This quarter we have agreed some significant rental increases, which have mitigated the impact of outward yield movements, against a backdrop of rising interest rates in 2023. We have maintained a well covered dividend over the period and made good progress on specific asset management initiatives. These will enable us to improve earnings as we reposition our portfolio, to ensure it continues to meet evolving occupier needs. As we start 2024, we are already encouraged by portfolio activity."

Financial Highlights

• Net assets of £524.3 million (30 September 2023: £537.1 million).
• NAV/EPRA NTA per share decreased by -2.5% to 96.0 pence (30 September 2023: 98.5 pence).
• Total return for the quarter of -1.6% (30 September 2023: 0.0%).
• LTV of 27.7% (30 September 2023: 27.7%).

Operational Highlights

• Like-for-like portfolio valuation movement of -1.5% over the quarter, with the industrial sector showing most resilience.
• Secured a 33% increase against the previous passing rent from four rent reviews in the industrial and retail sectors, with an annual rent of £2.3 million, which was 5% ahead of the September 2023 ERV or the ERV at the time of the review if prior.
• Renewed / regeared two leases in the industrial sector, with a combined annual rent of £0.1 million, an increase of 101% against the previous passing rent and in line with the September 2023 ERV.
• Completed five lettings in the industrial and office sectors, securing a combined annual rent of £0.5 million, in line with the September 2023 ERV.
• Secured valuable residential permitted development rights at Angel Gate EC1, in order to maximise future disposal proceeds.
• Stable occupancy at 90% (30 September 2023: 90%).

Dividend

• Interim dividend of 0.875 pence per share declared in respect of the period 1 October 2023 to 31 December 2023 and to be paid on 29 February 2024 (1 July 2023 to 30 September 2023: 0.875 pence per share).
• Annualised dividend equivalent to 3.5 pence per share, delivering a dividend yield of 5.3%, based on the share price at close of business on 26 January 2024.
Dividend cover for the quarter of 108% (30 September 2023: 115%).

The PCTN approach to UKCM, a company twice their size, was rather bizarre.

They have no way to grow themselves through M&A as they trade on a 32% NAV discount.

Must be a lot going on we don't know about - Phoenix control UKCM, and are seemingly happy with poor management & mediocre performance.

Assume it would have been a NAV-for-NAV merger, rather than based on relative discounts, so not sure what's not to like. Other than PHNX no longer having the control they have currently.

PCTN reserving options, but it's DOA without PHNX.

It appears Phoenix weren't keen on the terms of the proposed merger...

Statement re UKCM -

On 8 November 2023, Picton and UK Commercial Property REIT Limited ("UKCM") announced that they were in discussions regarding a possible all-share merger of the two companies on an EPRA NTA for EPRA NTA basis (the "Possible Merger").

The Board of Picton notes today's announcement by UKCM and confirms that Picton has been informed by UKCM that its largest shareholder, Phoenix Life Limited, which controls approximately 43% of UKCM's share capital, does not support the Possible Merger on the terms proposed.

Picton is considering the feedback that it has received from shareholders in Picton and UKCM, following the announcements on 8 November. A further announcement will be made in due course.

In accordance with Rule 2.6(a) of The City Code on Takeovers and Mergers (the "Code"), Picton is required, by no later than 5.00 p.m. (London time) on 6 December 2023 either to announce a firm intention to make an offer for UKCM in accordance with Rule 2.7 of the Code or to announce that it does not intend to make an offer, in which case the announcement will be treated as a statement to which Rule 2.8 of the Code applies. This deadline can only be extended with the consent of the Panel on Takeovers and Mergers (the "Takeover Panel") in accordance with Rule 2.6(c) of the Code.

--------------------------

The UKCM announcement is a bit more pointed...

Statement re possible all-share merger -

"...Accordingly, UKCM has informed Picton that it is terminating discussions with Picton regarding the Possible Merger."

Missed the excitement of the possible merger with UKCM. If it gets shot of UKCM management, all the better.

Suspect that NAV still has a little way to fall, but interesting to see it set out like that. Be interesting to see in real terms too, perhaps ex-divi payments.


Edit - be interesting to see PI's performance inflation-adjusted too. I bet a lot have had decent income but decent capital losses, perhaps at best flat, in the same year the value of money dropped c.15%.

Presumably PHNX will decide whether a PCTN/UKCM merger should go ahead.

They own c45% of UKCM; so their holding would reduce to c33% of the combined group.

Trading Update and Net Asset Value as at 30 June 2023 -

Dividend Declaration -

~ NAV decline in offices (-3.2%) outweighed the small increases in industrial, retail & leisure. Offices now account for 31.2% of total portfolio.

"Whilst we saw modest valuation increases in the industrial and retail and leisure assets, office assets and particularly those in London were subject to further decline, reflecting the more limited investor demand in that sector currently."

"In the office sector we renewed the leases on a single leased building in Colchester, two small suites in Glasgow and an ancillary residential unit in Covent Garden, securing a combined £0.5 million per annum, which is 6% ahead of the March 2023 ERV. Using permitted development rights, we have secured further changes of use from office to residential on vacant office space at our scheme in Islington. In total permission has now been secured for 28 units (45 bedrooms) and have applications pending on a further 7 units (21 bedrooms). We are also progressing further repositioning initiatives in Cardiff and Hammersmith and updates will be provided as appropriate."

~ Occupancy down slightly at 90%

"Occupancy was 90%, reflecting slightly lower leasing activity over the quarter, combined with a specific asset management led surrender."

~ Quarterly dividend maintained at 0.875pps. Dividend was uncovered for the quarter at 96% (31 March 2023: 111%).
