Financials

Ahead of FY23 results to be published in March, the Q423 update showed a continued strengthening in operational and financial tenant performance, reflected in a record level of rent cover (Q4: 2.2x) and 100% rent collection. With cash flow remaining strong, we expect the FY23 DPS of 6.77p (+3.5%) was fully covered by adjusted ‘cash’ earnings and the FY24 DPS target has been set at 6.95p (+2.7%). Contracted rents increased 13% in the year, to £49m, driven by inflation-linked rent reviews and a significant and accretive acquisition early in the period. Tenant operators have benefited from the continuing post-pandemic recovery in occupancy (to 88.2% vs 87.4% a year earlier) and strong fee growth (c 14%). The seven homes that were previously leased to Silverline are showing improved performance under the new operator.
