Energiser Investments plc
Energiser is an AIM quoted investing company investing predominantly in
property operating platforms and associated assets in the self-storage,
serviced-apartments and secured property lending sectors.
Chairman's Statement
I am delighted to report on the Group's Interim results for the six months to
30 June 2017.
I reported in the 2016 year end report that we maintained greater than 95%
occupancy at the Wellingborough investment portfolio, saw the majority of the
development loan repaid at the Kingswood, Surrey development and made great
progress on the sourcing, analysis and negotiation of a number of potential
transactions. We also raised new equity. I am pleased to say that we have
continued to make exciting progress on the current portfolio and new potential
transactions, such as the micro self-storage opportunity as announced on 13
June 2017.
Results
Energiser continues to hold the 20 residential properties at Wellingborough.
The gross rental income from the portfolio for the six months to 30 June 2017
was GBP82,000 (2016: GBP77,000), an increase of 6.5% over the previous year. The
net rental income, after relevant operating costs, increased 10.2% to GBP65,000
(2016: GBP59,000). Energiser's administrative expenses have increased to GBP
109,000 (2016: GBP35,000) for the half year, predominantly due to the effect of
engaging our Chief Executive, Dominic White in October 2016 and further
increases due to being a listed company. The loss before taxation improved to
GBP81,000 (2016: GBP161,000) with loss per share of 0.07p (2016: 0.32p). Net
assets have increased to GBP1,804,000 (2016: GBP340,000) principally due to
crystallising a GBP765,000 performance related fee following successful
completion of the Kingswood development, and, the GBP1.26 million of new equity
raised in December 2016. This results in a 87.2% increase in net asset value
per share to 1.46p (2016: 0.78p). The Directors do not recommend the payment
of a dividend.
Operations
The 20 residential properties in Wellingborough, Northamptonshire, have
continued to maintain their high level of occupancy at more than 95% over the
period. As outlined in the last report, the Directors believe that the value
of this portfolio is reaching a ceiling and that the associated capital could
be better invested into new opportunities. The small size of the individual
residential units and the strong letting history of the portfolio should be
attractive to residential investors. The Directors are considering a sale of
the properties in the coming months.
Energiser's investment in the development funding of 12 residential properties
in Kingswood, Surrey has successfully completed. The last unit was sold in the
six months to June and all payments have been received. The back-to-back
funding that Energiser raised relating to this investment has also been repaid
in full.
In June, Energiser committed to an initial investment of GBP0.6m with an industry
leading self-storage entrepreneur, Paul Fahey, to help him launch a micro
self-storage operator. Self-storage is a fast growing industry in the UK.
Traditionally, self-storage facilities operate in large stores positioned on
the edge of towns and cities. Micro self-storage focuses on smaller facilities
within dense urban centres and on the edge of smaller towns. Due diligence
relating to the acquisition of the first micro self-storage facility is
underway. We are in parallel working on potential corporate opportunities to
accelerate our entry into this sector.
Outlook
The Group's strategy is to focus on and engage in investment opportunities
within the real estate sector, in particular in real estate operating
companies. Our focus has been on three areas - residential, self-storage and
short-term property lending. We are currently focused on ways to realise the
equity within our Wellingborough portfolio so that it can be recycled into new
opportunities with higher potential returns, and, the live opportunities in the
self-storage sector.
We look forward to sharing more details of Energiser's progress with
shareholders in the coming months.
