Investment Manager Commentary The Company had a busy start to 2017 with the completion of the sale of two offices for a total of GBP30.1m, and the purchase of two industrial assets for GBP 10.7m. The sales were undertaken where we could exit at an attractive price and avoid future risk and capex requirements, whilst the purchases were of industrial assets with greater prospects for rental growth. Following the sale of White Bear Yard we have no Central London office exposure, other than a small office suite as part of a mixed use investment in Westminster. The downside of the repositioning is the impact of transaction costs in the quarter. Performance was negatively affected by adverse valuation movement on a couple of the retail warehouse assets and on an industrial asset as it gets closer to a lease end. There were positives, however, from asset management with 4 rent reviews settled resulting in increases in rent totalling GBP97,000, a lease regear securing a rent of GBP360,000 pa for an additional 6 years (giving 11 years term certain), and three new lettings securing rents of GBP168,000 pa. As a result of asset management the void rate stands at 3.2% (under half the rate of the market average). The voids are dominated by one unit, a logistics building in Oldham, North Manchester, where we have seen an increase in interest from potential tenants. The Company has now repaid all borrowings under the Revolving Credit facility and the Company's overall LTV at 31 March 2017 was 21.2%. The Company has approximately GBP15m cash available to reinvest. The valuation of the interest rate swap against the term loan moved slightly against the Company during the quarter, and now stands at a liability of GBP3.7 million. Market Commentary The UK economy has clearly demonstrated its resilience post the referendum vote with GDP growth for Q4 2016 recently being revised up to +0.7%. The data, released thus far for Q1 2017, however, has been mixed regarding the strength of the economy. Although the manufacturing and production indicators remain strong, tentative evidence of the rapid squeeze on consumers' spending power has appeared lately as a result of rising inflation. Furthermore, the UK household savings ratio fell to a record low at the end of 2016, bringing into question the scope for further drawdowns in savings. With inflation now running at the same rate as wages growth in March, real incomes are likely to fall over the coming months. Although retail sales data have been volatile, the 3-month average growth rate has clearly slowed. Not surprisingly, some retailers are becoming more cautious about the outlook for spending including Next, Tesco and John Lewis. Over the twelve months to end March, All Property recorded a total return of 3.8% p.a. The sharp capital decline following the EU Referendum in July 2016 continued to have a negative impact on the overall figures, but market conditions and sentiment have stabilised in recent months with a total return for Q1 2017 of 2.3%. Capital values fell by 1.7% p.a. in the year to end March, but again Q1 2017 was positive at 0.9%. Rental growth remained positive however and grew by 1.6% p.a. in the twelve months to end March. The industrial sector has continued to outperform with a total return of 9.4% p.a. in the twelve months to end March. Retail was no longer the laggard sector in the same period, recording total returns of 2.3% p.a., noticeably ahead of offices which recorded total returns of 1.4% p.a. reflecting the political uncertainties associated with the Central London market. As for the equity markets, the FTSE All Share and the FTSE 100 total returns were 4.0% and 3.7% respectively over the quarter. For listed real estate equities, total returns were relatively modest growth at 1.7% over the quarter. Investment Outlook UK real estate continues to provide an elevated yield compared to other asset classes with capital values more stable following the post Brexit upheaval last year. Lending to the sector is at a lower level than in 2007/2008 and liquidity remains reasonable. Additionally, development continues to be relatively constrained by historic standards, and vacancy rates are below long term average levels. These factors should all help to maintain the positive returns the sector is currently recording. In this environment, the steady secure income component generated by the asset class is likely to be the key driver of returns going forward. From a sector perspective, we continue to favour industrial and logistics property, although pricing on prime assets is likely to remain competitive as
the stable income component and positive fundamentals appeal to investors. As for the retail sector, inflationary pressures may prove to be a significant headwind going forward with static real wage growth despite a tight labour market. Further polarisation within the market is likely to be experienced. During the Brexit negotiations we continue to expect Central London offices to be the most impacted sector given the linkages to European markets via cross border trading. Overall, investor appetite is expected to be sustained in an environment of low numbers and location and asset quality will be crucial determinants of how markets respond to pressures in the year ahead. Dividends The Company paid total dividends in respect of the quarter ended 31 December 2016 of 1.19p per Ordinary Share, with a payment date of 31 March 2017.
