oh well makes them more attractive for a top up

[my retirement fund] 23/7/2024 16:58

Now 47000 dumped at 87p in Auction. Weird can't really explain the weakness. Almost deliberate.

[my retirement fund] 22/7/2024 16:57

Mental, who sells 64000 in the closing auction at 90p. There seems to be some demented people out there.

Good rebound from mid 80s back in early June.

[wshak] 03/7/2024 17:40

I've been adding to my position (last week) at 89p and at other times recently when cash allowed.Bizarre share, due to its illiquidity, I guess.No idea what has caused today's rise.

[skyship] 03/7/2024 16:30

A move for the better - now North of 93p...

[skyship] 25/6/2024 08:36

...not forgetting the 8.55% Yield!

‘Buy’ discounted CLS, says Liberum
Property developer CLS Holdings (CLI) is offering ‘deep value’ especially given its latest project in London’s Vauxhall, says Liberum.

Analyst Bjorn Zietsman retained his ‘buy’ recommendation and target price of 163p on the developer, which retreated 1.1% to 92.4p yesterday.

The group has announced plans to develop Citadel Place in Vauxhall and Zietsman said ‘while it is too early to include any forecasts in our numbers, we expect based on the contents of the announcement, the potential gross development value to amount to several hundred million and anticipate a potential profit on cost of at least 15%’.

CLS plans to turn the low-rise office buildings at Citadel Place into ‘a harmonised mixed-used opportunity’.

‘CLS offers deep value with the highest forecast total return to shareholders, currently trading at a 63% discount to our estimates of spot net tangible assets, which is the widest discount of the stocks within our range,’ said Zietsman.

CLS Holdings plc ("CLS" or the "Group")
CLS announces development plans for Citadel Place in Vauxhall

CLS is pleased to announce the plans for its Citadel Place (aka Spring Gardens) site in Vauxhall, London. The property is one of the largest in the CLS portfolio and represents an exciting opportunity to further regenerate the area and create a vibrant community hub while also providing long-term shareholder returns.

The existing site, currently characterised by low-rise office buildings built in the 1990s, is poised for a remarkable transformation. With the expected vacancy in 2026 of the four buildings, CLS aims to bring a well-considered and harmonised mixed-use development to the area.

CLS has partnered with the renowned architectural firm Allies and Morrison to design Citadel Place. Their vision combines modern aesthetics with a commitment to sustainability, ensuring that the development blends with, and enhances, its surroundings.

Mixed-Use Development:
Residential Homes: The plans include building 180-200 new homes.
Student Accommodation: Citadel Place will provide purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) with around 450 bedrooms, catering to the growing student demand in the area.
Shared Amenity Spaces: Residents and visitors will enjoy communal spaces designed for relaxation, recreation, and social interaction.
Active Ground Floor Uses: Retail units and other ground-floor spaces will contribute to the vibrancy of the development.
New Open Space: Citadel Place will feature landscaped areas, including play spaces, enhancing the quality of life for residents.
Connected Pedestrian Routes: Creating pedestrian-friendly pathways through the site will complete the connection between Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens and Pedlar's Park, encouraging movement and interaction between these areas.

Fredrik Widlund, CEO of CLS Holdings, said: "Citadel Place represents our commitment to sustainable urban development. We envisage a place where people can live and thrive; supporting the community within Vauxhall. CLS has operated and invested in the Vauxhall area for over 35 years and continues to work closely with the London Borough of Lambeth, residents and the local business community and we are excited to now start on the next phase of development."


The first public consultation session will be held on 18 July 2024 between 4 - 7pm. This will be an in-person session close to the site at one of CLS' recent developments in Vauxhall, The Coade, 97 Vauxhall Walk, London, SE11 5EL.

In collaboration with the London Borough of Lambeth, we are committed to an inclusive public consultation process. Local residents, businesses, and stakeholders will have the opportunity to provide feedback on the proposed plans. Subject to the consultation with the community and discussions with members and officers at Lambeth Council, CLS hopes to submit a planning application for Citadel Place early next year.

Despite the poor share price, we shouldn't forget there is a lot going on in the background. The student property at Spring Mews has received a decent amount of interest, a planning appeal has been put in regarding the Artesian, Prescot Street and the annual report has properties for sale in Germany valued at £115M.

[loglorry1] 23/6/2024 08:44

The commercially of the Paris conversion is unclear and it won't start for a while. I assume they wouldn't do it unless it made sense.

[skyship] 22/6/2024 13:10

Needs must on occasion - just good that they are alert to opportunities

[raj k] 22/6/2024 12:31

I see CLS issued an RNS saying they were going to convert one of their office blocks in Paris to residential serviced apartments. Do we think there will mbe more of their block that will have to be converted for other use or this is unique due to age of building. cost of upgrading its office credentials?

[skyship] 22/6/2024 08:43

Some serious UTs at the close; and in all 1.42m traded at 93.4p

Maybe we will finally see a recovery to more sensible levels; though not holding my breath.

Even if we open up Monday at the 93.4p level that would still provide a 63% discount and an 8.5% yield.

[hindsight] 10/6/2024 12:23

On the one hand sale 5% below nav but on the other hand 140% above share price valuation

[nickrl] 10/6/2024 09:29

MIxed bag on sales though as some still below even latest valuation maybe indicates bottom isn't in on offices. That said their strategy is to clear off ones with imminent refinancing largely so the interest bill doesn't keep creeping up and threatening divi cover.

[skyship] 10/6/2024 08:15

Birmingham sale confirmed. Strange that someone should sell again down at this level...

[strathroyal] 08/6/2024 22:17

I see that CLS have recently updated their portfolio and reduced the number of UK properties from 35 to 33. The two that have been removed are Westminster Tower, which was already known to have been sold but has presumably now completed and the Birmingham property, which I think was one of their smaller properties.

[skyship] 30/5/2024 13:47

Raj - the concern was a year ago as the commercial property market went into retreat. The valuations were hit as interest rates rose; so the NAV slashed.

That was all in the past. We are now looking at ECB cutting rates; though not as quickly as thought earlier this Spring.

Also, as is the form in Europe, the debt is non-recourse and attached to individual properties - NOT to the Company.

The high LTV is a chimera - not a concern.

What is real is the 9% yield and 65% NAV discount.

[raj k] 30/5/2024 09:33

Insn't anyone concerned by the large LTV that CLS has. In the 2023 annual report it states they have 193.9 million current borrowings and 876.7 non current borrowings, which is 1.07 billion of debt. Straight property valuation is 1.85 billion. Seems like a very high LTV even taking into account a lot must be fixed/hedged.

Has the position changed? I see in their end of march factsheet they are targetting 270 million of disposals in 2024 which is welcome.

or an election.....
