Significant events
- “a new 15-year agreement for leases with a leading UK brewer at the Stakehill asset formerly occupied by Tesco, where we achieved vacant possession upon lease expiry in December 2023. The agreement for lease has been signed with a rental reversion of 38.1% against the passing rent at the point of Tesco vacation, reflecting the asset management team’s initiatives, which generated £8.50 per sq ft additional income to us through a power purchase agreement; a five-year lease extension at L’Oreal, Trafford Park, Manchester, delivering additional rental income of £8.50 per sq ft; a reversionary lease renewal for a 15-year term with Next on the Slough asset delivering significant value add prior to the asset’s disposal (see above). Across our urban logistics assets we completed 32 lease events delivering a total of 8.8 million in additional contracted rental uplifts through rent reviews and asset management where the Group’s physical property management team, successfully implemented 43 development related income projects.”

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
