Interim results were in line with guidance provided with the recent £110.5m (before costs) equity raise. With debt reduced, including repayment of the £50m retail bond, Regional REIT (RGL) has increased flexibility to invest in its portfolio. The rolling refurbishment programmes aimed at enhancing the quality, occupier appeal and rent potential of core assets continues. Significant progress has already been made in raising EPC ratings, well aligned with occupier demands and these are well on track to meet future legal requirements. Alongside a broader pipeline of disposals, RGL will invest in alternative use assets, seeking to gain planning approval before sale, to capture a larger share of the value uplift. While DPS has been reset at a level that RGL expects can be grown sustainably over time, asset repurposing could well lead to capital growth, making a more meaningful contribution to total return.
