MIDAS SHARE TIPS: Property developer Segro has tempting yield

FINANCIAL MAIL ON SUNDAY

PUBLISHED: 22:31, 5 January 2013

Established property developer Segro is our second recommendation. It owns the Slough Trading Estate, home to Ricky Gervais's television hit, The Office.
Segro offers investors a six per cent dividend yield and the possibility of some real share price appreciation, too. The company is in the throes of change and the stock should respond as chief executive David Sleath delivers on his strategy.

Sleath took the helm in the summer of 2011 and has spent the past 18 months giving Segro a much sharper focus, concentrating on industrial property in or near key transport hubs, such as the Thames Valley,Heathrow Airport, Ile-de-France – the region surrounding Paris – and the Rhine-Ruhr region in Germany.
Sleath is also disposing of non-core property in Britain and on the Continent and reinvesting the proceeds in his chosen areas.

The company sold £505million worth of property last year and expects to complete further sales in 2013.
Brokers forecast a dividend of 15p for the year just ended, rising to 15.3p for 2013 and 15.5p the year after. Profits are expected to grow steadily as well.
Midas verdict: Sleath is determined to create one of Britain's leading income-focused property companies and City supporters believe he is well-equipped to do so. The shares are trading at 251p and should reward yield-seeking investors. Buy.

DHL Aviation takes second Heathrow unit

10 December 2012

DHL Aviation has taken a 81,000 sq ft unit at the Heathrow Cargo Centre in a deal that almost doubles the space it occupies at the centre.

It has leased the facility from Airport Property Partnership, a joint venture between SEGRO and Aviva Investors.

DHL already occupies 100,250 sq ft including airside yard area, and now it has taken the building next door, including further airside yard area, to cope with increasing demand.

The primary function of DHL Aviation is to provide international transport services for the DHL group including all export, import and transhipment of DHL shipments which includes customs and security processing.

The Heathrow Cargo Centre, also known as "The Horseshoe", provides cargo transit units with direct airside access.

Danny Pedri, managing director, hubs & gateways UK and Ireland, DHL Aviation, said: "The Horseshoe at Heathrow provides us with an ideally located cargo transit unit and direct airside access, which is essential for our aviation business. To accommodate our growing market share, we've been pleased to work closely with the APP team to meet our requirement for expansion at Heathrow."
