Picton Property Income — Strong start to FY22

Picton Property Income has made a strong start to FY22, reporting a 4.0% NAV total return for the three months ended 30 June 2021 (Q122), and has increased quarterly DPS by a further 6.3%. Like-for-like portfolio valuation and NAV have now grown for four consecutive quarters, reflecting sector positioning, asset management and an improving market environment. Strong reversionary potential and financial flexibility for accretive acquisitions are positive indicators for future progress.

Increasing our NAV forecasts

Q122 net asset value (NAV)/EPRA net tangible assets (NTA) per share increased by 3.2% to 99.9p (end-FY21: 96.8p), including a 2.9% like for like valuation increase. Stable occupancy (91%) and continuing strong rent collection support an increase in quarterly DPS to 0.85p (Q421:0.8p), an annualised 3.4p, and 121% covered by EPRA earnings. Performance continues to be led by the industrial sector (54% of the portfolio) but shows signs of broadening, with office valuations (35% of the portfolio) up modestly and even the underweight position in retail & leisure (11%) benefiting from a strong gain in retail warehouse assets. We have made no change to our EPRA earnings and DPS forecasts (FY22e modestly ahead of the current run rate), but have increased our NAV/EPRA NTA forecasts.

Building on a strong track record

The strong start to FY22 partly reflects an improved market environment, with occupiers benefiting from lockdown easing, and investment market volumes improving, but builds on Picton’s strong track record: the All Property capital return for the MSCI Monthly UK Property Index was 2.7% for the quarter. The company seeks to be one of the consistently best-performing diversified UK REITs, and on an ungeared basis to 31 March 2021 (end-FY21) it had outperformed the MSCI UK Quarterly Property Index over one, three, five and 10 years and since inception, with a top quartile performance in each of the past six years. Enhanced by moderate gearing and good cost management, EPRA NTA total return in the five years to end-FY21 was a compound annual average of 8.0% and 6.6% in FY21.

Valuation: Good yield with upside to covered DPS

Based on the increased annualised rate of quarterly DPS (3.4p), the yield is 3.7% (and slightly higher on our forecast DPS). This compares favourably with risk-free alternatives and we expect further DPS growth in FY22 and FY23. The discount to end-Q122 EPRA NTA is c 7%, above the five-year average of 3%.

Further details about the Q122 performance

Rent collection remains strong, with 94% of June quarter rents either collected (87%) or expected to be received under agreed monthly payments. This is in line with March quarter collections after the same number of days and Picton expects the collection rate to improve further in coming weeks. The March quarter collection rate stands at 95%.

Exhibit 1 shows the movement in Q122 NAV/EPRA NTA. The 3.1p per share growth included a 3.0p contribution from property revaluation gains and 0.1p of retained earnings.

Strong investment and occupational demand continued to drive industrial sector performance, with the high level of occupancy within the portfolio supporting rental growth. The six rent reviews that Picton completed in Q122 were all in the industrial sector, generating an average 21% increase against the previous passing rent. The combined annual rent of £0.5m was on average 15% above the end-FY21 estimated rental value (ERV).

As previously reported, all of the remaining office space at Stanford Building in London WC2 was let at an average rental of £80 per square foot.This was slightly (3%) below ERV but reflects a longer than average 10-year lease commitment. In general terms, Picton says demand for smaller office suites in central London remains muted but that it is seeing good demand in the regions, with space under offer at a number of buildings. At end-FY21, the reversionary income potential within Picton’s office portfolio was £5.9m (out of a total £9.0m), of which £3.4m represented void space (including the subsequently let space at Stanford Building).

The positive Q122 valuation movement in retail and leisure assets was driven by retail warehouse assets, which more than offset a slight decline in high street retail.

Edison forecasts

We have made no change to our EPRA earnings forecasts, set out in detail in our June outlook note. We have also left our FY22e DPS forecast of 3.5p unchanged, which implies a further small increase in the quarterly rate of DPS before year-end. The Q122 property valuation performance was stronger than we had anticipated and our FY22 NAV/EPRA NTA per share forecast is increased from 101p to 103p, with a similar uplift in FY23 to 107p. Our forecasts do not include accretive acquisitions, although with low gearing (Q122 LTV of 20.9%) and undrawn debt capacity of £50m Picton is well placed to take advantage of opportunities that may arise.
