- The company announced a significant acquisition in Ireland, the Laya Health and Wellbeing Clinic in Cork, which is expected to yield 7.1% and was funded from existing resources.
- PHP has a nearly 30-year track record of dividend growth, currently yielding close to 8%, and remains committed to continuing this trend.
- The company maintains a high occupancy rate close to 100%, with a secure income stream, 90% of which is government-backed.
- PHP has significant firepower with GBP271 million of undrawn headroom, allowing for future investments and acquisitions.
- The company faced a revaluation deficit of GBP38 million, reflecting valuation declines in the first half of the year.
- There are concerns about the potential impact of lease length reductions on valuations, although management remains confident.
