“Land Securities has delivered a healthy performance driven by a clear strategy and decisive action. Revenue profit is up due to new rents from our successful development programme and reduced interest costs outweighing the impact of last year’s disposals. Our levels of financial and operational gearing are at historic lows, placing us in an excellent position during a period of geopolitical and economic uncertainty”, said Land Securities’ Chief Executive, Robert Noel.
“Revenue profit increased by 5.5% to £382m, and adjusted diluted earnings per share by 5.7% to 48.3p, while adjusted diluted NAV per share is down marginally over the year at 1,417p. We’ve continued to proactively manage both sides of our balance sheet; this year, we’ve refinanced over £690m of our bonds and extended the term of our debt with the issue of £700m of new bonds. Our LTV remains virtually unchanged at 22.2%. Since the year end, we have refinanced a further £273m of bond debt.
“In London, we’ve completed the 3.1 million sq ft speculative development programme commenced in 2010 and have our longest ever average unexpired lease term, as planned. We now have just 283,000 sq ft available to let. The majority of this space is in Nova, a spectacular new addition to Victoria, which completed last month and is now 54% let. We have a 1.4 million sq ft pipeline of future development opportunities to exploit when the time is right.
“In Retail, the transformational changes we’ve made over the last few years have led to a particularly strong performance relative to the sector. Westgate Oxford is 80% pre-let or in solicitors’ hands and on track to open in October, delivering an eagerly anticipated retail heart for the city. In Leeds, our leisure extension at White Rose reached practical completion in March and is fully let. Since the year end, we’ve acquired a portfolio of three outlet centres for £333m, establishing our position as the leading owner-manager of outlets in the UK.
“The success of our development programme, combined with the interest savings we have achieved, sees us recommend a final dividend of 11.7p which increases the dividend for the year by 10.1%.
“Our strategy has put us in robust health, with significant capacity and agility to make acquisitions when the time is right. We’re confidently positioned for the future.”
