Nearing full investment

Target has provided a NAV and portfolio update as at 30 June. The previously announced acquisition of a newly-built home in Leicestershire and the forward funding of one in Merseyside bring the portfolio to a total of 47 properties and closer to management’s target of a 20% loan-to-value (LTV) ratio (14.2% at 30 June). We have adjusted our estimates for the NAV update and to account for the timing of the new investments. Target has the longest lease portfolio of any UK REIT, producing stable income streams from high-quality and purpose-built modern care homes. These support a prospective dividend yield of 5.2%.
