ANNUAL 
REPORT 
AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

REGIONAL REIT
Regional REIT is a leading UK real estate investment 
trust specialising in high-quality commercial property 
space across the thriving regional markets outside 
London. The REIT has a commitment to delivering 
flexible, affordable, and vibrant modern workspaces.
Through active tenant engagement and expert asset 
management, Regional REIT consistently achieves both 
robust rental income and collections, providing our 
shareholders with a dependable source of attractive, 
stable dividends and long-term value creation, driven by a 
geographically diversified and resilient property portfolio. 
WHAT IS A REIT? 
A real estate investment trust (“REIT”) is a specialist tax-
efficient investment vehicle built around real property 
assets, specifically property rental/letting activities. REITs 
are quoted companies, or groups of companies, that own 
and manage property with the aim of generating a rental 
income and possible capital growth over the long term. 
The rental income, after costs, is paid to shareholders as 
a dividend distribution so that, over time, dividends will 
represent a significant proportion of the shareholders’ 
total return. REITs are a well-established and globally 
recognised holding structure for property assets.
United Kingdom ("UK") REITs are exempt from UK 
corporation tax on profits and gains of their qualifying 
property rental business. However, in consequence, UK 
REITs are required to distribute a minimum of 90% of their 
qualifying profits to shareholders as dividends (known as 
property income distributions or “PIDs”). As shareholders 
receive higher pay-outs than they would if the REIT were 
subject to UK corporation tax on its property profits and 
gains, shareholders are thus required to pay tax on the 
PIDs. The effect, in general terms, is that taxation is moved 
from the REIT to the investor and the investor is then liable 
for taxation as if they owned the property directly.
Regional REIT and its subsidiaries are a UK REIT group 
under UK tax legislation, having elected to enter the REIT 
regime with effect from 7 November 2015. Remaining 
in the regime is subject to meeting various conditions 
imposed by legislation.
ISA, SSAS AND SIPP STATUS
The Company’s Shares should be eligible to be held in an 
Individual Savings Account (“ISA”). 
Subject to the rules of the Trustees of the relevant 
scheme, the Ordinary Shares should generally be eligible 
for inclusion in a small self-administered scheme (“SSAS”) 
or self-invested personal pension (“SIPP”) provided: (a) 
no member of the SSAS or SIPP (or person connected 
with such a member) occupies or uses any residential 
property held by the Group; and (b) the SSAS or SIPP, 
alone or together with one or more associated persons, 
does not directly or indirectly hold 10% or more of any 
of the Ordinary Shares, voting rights in the Company, 
rights to income of the Company, rights to amounts on 
a distribution of the Company or rights to assets on a 
winding up of the Company.

CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT
Overview
While it was another difficult year for the property market 
and the regional office sector, our active management 
strategy did enable the Company to outperform the MSCI 
Rest of UK Offices Index which declined by 8.9% over the 
year with our portfolio value falling by 8.2% on a like-for-like 
basis after adjustments for acquisitions, disposals, and 
capital expenditure. The bulk of that fall was in the first half 
of the year with some signs of stabilisation in values in the 
second half. 
Throughout the year, the Board remained committed to 
delivering consistent quarterly dividend distributions to 
our shareholders, ensuring full compliance with the HMRC 
REIT guidelines and maintaining a covered annual dividend. 
Our strong operational performance — driven by effective 
asset management and robust rent collection — further 
supported these uninterrupted dividend payments. The 
Board recognises the importance of delivering dividend 
growth on a fully covered basis going forward, and that will 
remain an overriding priority. 
Letting demand for our portfolio remained robust despite 
overall occupancy falling on a like for like basis, with 2024 
lettings having exceeded the prior year's estimated rental 
values by a significant 13.5%. This encouraging element 
of performance reflects the appeal of our properties and 
ability to cater for all tenants’ requirements from a single 
desk to a stand-alone headquarter office. We do firmly 
believe that our portfolio is well positioned to benefit 
from the continued return-to-office momentum across 
the United Kingdom. This will be enhanced in the medium 
term by a more favourable macroeconomic environment 
and easing UK monetary policy, supporting the quarterly 
dividends and adding shareholder value.
There is a lot of work to do and the Board remains 
committed to reducing LTV while progressing opportunities 
across the portfolio to generate sustainable, long-term 
value for shareholders. 
As I begin my first months in this role, I, together 
with the rest of the Board fully acknowledge the 
unprecedented challenges our Company and 
shareholders have faced over recent years. However, 
the £110.5 million capital raise in July 2024 enabled the 
Company to fully repay the £50 million Retail Bond in 
August, reduce overall bank borrowings and focus on 
accretive capital expenditure projects. 
*	 During the year the Company offered 15 new ordinary shares for every 7 existing shares. This resulted 
in an increase of 1,105,149,821 Ordinary Shares being issued. Subsequently there was a 10 for 1 split 
with the resulting Ordinary shares in issue being 162,088,483.
Letting demand for our portfolio remained 
robust, with 2024 lettings having exceeded 
the prior year's estimated rental values by a 
significant 13.5%."

Chairman
7.8pps 2024 Dividend (2023: 5.25pps*)
£622.5 million Portfolio Valuation
£251.4 million of dividends have been declared since inception

Financial Resources
Market Environment 
The Company’s EPRA NTA increased to £340.7 million (IFRS 
NAV: £351.6 million) as at 31 December 2024, representing 
an increase of £49.9 million from £290.8 million (IFRS NAV: 
£306.1 million) as at 31 December 2023. This increase was 
driven by the £110.5 million equity capital raise, although 
it was partially offset by a challenging commercial real 
estate market that led to a decline in the property portfolio 
revaluation. A strong cash balance of £56.7 million was 
retained as of 31 December 2024 (2023: £34.5 million), of 
which £55.9 million was unrestricted (2023: £30.2 million)
The Company’s debt position, which is comprised entirely 
of fixed and hedged interest rate debt, helped the 
Company mitigate rate volatility. With the repayment of 
the 4.5% £50 million Retail Bond, the weighted average 
cost of debt was reduced to 3.4% at the end of 2024 (2023: 
3.5%), and the Net Loan-to-Value (LTV) decreased to 41.8% 
as of 31 December 2024, compared with 55.1% as at 31 
December 2023.
The Company continues to execute its controlled disposal 
programme, consisting of 18 assets and three-part sales of 
assets, amounting to circa £28 million, net of costs.
Sustainability 
Once again, I am pleased to report the significant progress 
achieved by the ESG Working Party in 2024, which 
improved the Company’s Global Real Estate Sustainability 
Benchmark (GRESB) from 66 to 73 and maintained a two 
Green Star Status. Additionally, we continued to achieve 
advancements in our EPC ratings and EPRA sustainability 
accreditation. Overall performance remains robust. 
82.7% of our portfolio attained EPC ratings C plus or 
better (compared with 73.7% on 31 December 2023), while 
EPC B plus and exempt rose steeply to 57.7% (compared 
with 31.6% on 31 December 2023). This progress moves 
us nearer to meeting the Minimum Energy Efficiency 
Standard (‘MEES’) target of EPC B, well ahead of the stated 
2030 target. Importantly, with limited compliant office 
supply in the regions, providing high quality, energy 
efficient space can be a key differentiator for Regional 
REIT, driving improved occupancy and rental growth. 
UK office investment reached £1.8 billion in Q4 2024, 
bringing the annual total to £7.3 billion, a 27% decline from 
2023. London saw the sharpest drop, with investment 
falling 34% to £4.7 billion, while regional markets declined 
5.5% to £2.34 billion. Q4 2024 transactional yields for 
central London offices rose slightly to 6.02% and yields for 
the rest of the UK increased by 43 basis points to 7.75%.
Looking ahead, Lambert Smith Hampton (“LSH”)1 sees 
2024 as an inflection point for office space sector. LSH 
forecasts total returns averaging c7.9% per annum 
citing improved staff occupancy and tighter supply. 
Underpinning LSH’s forecast, Centre for Cities2 notes 
London office attendance rose from 2.2 to 2.7 days 
weekly; KPMG3 reports 76% of financial leaders plan to 
boost attendance; and Willis Towers Watson4 finds 60% of 
firms enforce office-day policies, improving engagement 
(85%), culture (72%), and learning (69%). Regional REIT’s 
own annual tenant survey found that current active office 
occupation is now above pre-pandemic active occupancy, 
while employee occupation has stabilised at an average of 
four days a week.
Dividends 
The dividend remains a significant component of total 
shareholder returns. During the period under review, prior 
to the capital raise and share consolidation, the Company 
declared a Q1 2024 dividend of 1.2pps. Following the 
capital raise and subsequent share consolidation, the 
Company declared a Q2 2024 dividend of 2.2pps on 
10 September 2024, a Q3 2024 dividend of 2.2pps on 
13 November 2024, and has now declared a Q4 2024 
dividend of 2.2pps. These dividend distributions ensure 
compliance with the HMRC REIT regime. Notably, the 
Company has paid a fully covered dividend for 2024, 
having also paid a covered dividend for 2023. Since 
inception, the Company has declared dividends amounting 
to 65.35pps noting the aforementioned one for ten 
share consolidation on 29 July 2024 and has distributed 
approximately £251.4 million in dividends to shareholders.

total shareholder return was -40.5%, versus the return of 
-11.7% for the FTSE EPRA NAREIT UK Total return Index 
over the same period. The annualised EPRA Total Return 
was 0.6% p.a. (2023: 1.5% p.a.).
Board Changes 
As announced on 18 December 2024, following a thorough 
search process and in line with the Company’s policy, I 
was appointed as an Independent Non-Executive Director 
and Chair designate. I have since been appointed to the 
Audit, Nomination, and Management Engagement & 
Remuneration Committees and, following a handover 
period, assumed the role of Chair of the Board on 18 
March 2025, succeeding Kevin McGrath, who stepped 
down after completing his nine-year tenure.
On behalf of the Board and our shareholders I extend 
our thanks to Kevin for his leadership and unwavering 
commitment over the years. His guidance and dedication 
have been instrumental in the governance of the 
Company, particularly with regard to our successful £110.5 
million equity capital raise in 2024.
As announced on 11 October 2024, Daniel Taylor stepped 
down as Senior Independent Director and Non-Executive 
Director ("NED") of the Company, having completed his 
nine-year tenure in accordance with the Company’s policy. 
Again, I record our appreciation of Daniel’s significant 
contribution during his tenure.
Also on 11 October, Massy Larizadeh was appointed as 
Senior Independent Director. An independent NED since 
June 2022, Massy chairs the Management Engagement & 
Remuneration and Nomination Committees.
Finally, as announced on 21 October 2024, Nicole Burstow 
was appointed as a Non-Executive Director, representing 
our new significant shareholder Bridgemere Investments 
Limited. Nicole, a chartered accountant with over 20 
years of financial services experience, is currently CFO of 
Bridgemere Group and was previously Deputy CEO of DSW 
Capital. 
Annual General Meeting 
The notice for the 2025 AGM will be published on our 
website and circulated to shareholders in line with the 
Company’s Articles of Incorporation. In accordance with 
the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and the AIC 
Code, all Directors will stand for re-election at the AGM, 
except for Ms Burstow and myself, as we were appointed 
as Directors since the last AGM and will therefore stand 
for election. Directors maintain their professional 
development through regular briefings from the Company 
Secretary and the Company’s other advisers. As well as 
being committed to orderly succession planning, the 
Board will enhance its skills base as necessary. The Board 
looks forward to engaging with shareholders at the AGM. 
Shareholder and Stakeholder Engagement
We welcomed Bridgemere Investments Limited as a 
new significant shareholder following the successful 
completion of the capital raise and thank them and our 
existing shareholders for their support. We look forward 
to working with Bridgemere and all our stakeholders as we 
look to return to growth.
Tenant and stakeholder satisfaction is key to our 
success. We aim to provide high-quality workspaces 
that accommodate diverse business needs, from small 
flexible units to corporate headquarters. Engaging 
actively with tenants is central to our asset management 
strategy, helping us understand their needs, address 
challenges, and enhance our workspaces. We promote 
open and transparent communication, ensuring a 
collaborative approach that benefits all stakeholders and 
improves operational efficiency. The Company welcomes 
shareholder engagement, with further details available at 
www.regionalreit.com and in this Annual Report. 
Outlook
The property market continues to adjust to the evolving 
economic conditions and cautious investor sentiment. 
While the management team is doing all it can to increase 
returns including through capex, leasing and sales, 
performance is to some extent inevitably dependent on 
recovery in the sector. However, demand for well-located, 
high-quality office space remains resilient, supported by 
the continued return to the office, and there are significant 
opportunities to create value within the portfolio 
by progressing accretive initiatives such as securing 
planning consents ahead of sales. The Company remains 
focused on active asset management to drive occupancy, 
enhance tenant retention, and optimise rental growth, 
underpinning sustainable dividend distributions. As 
businesses prioritise dynamic and engaging workspaces, 
the Company is well placed for recovery, which will 
support long-term value creation and benefit shareholders 
as confidence gradually returns to the commercial 
property market.

AND BUSINESS MODEL
Active management of the properties
Highly experienced Asset Manager
Regions primed for growth
Investing in income producing assets
Opportunistic approach to property investment
Geographically diversified income focused portfolio
BORROWINGS
The Group targets a ratio of net borrowings to Gross Investment Properties Value of 40% over 
the longer term, with a targeted maximum limit of 50%.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY
The Group will invest in, and actively manage properties or debt portfolios secured on such 
properties located predominately in the regional centres of the UK outside of the M25 motorway.
The Group aims to build a portfolio of interests that, together, offer shareholders a diversification 
of investment risk by investing in a range of geographical areas and across a number of high-
quality assets and tenants, and through letting properties, where possible, to low-risk tenants.
The Group will use gearing, borrowings and other sources of leverage to implement its 
investment strategy and enhance equity returns.
INVESTMENT POLICY
The Group will invest in properties that are situated in the UK and outside of the M25 motorway.
The Group may also invest in property portfolios in which up to 50% of the properties (by market 
value) are situated inside the M25 motorway.
In the ordinary course of business, no single property will exceed 10% of the Group’s Gross 
Investment Properties Value at the time of the investment; exceptionally, the Board may consider 
taking this up to 20%.
The normal minimum value for a single property investment is £5 million, except where an asset 
is within a portfolio of properties for which there shall be no such minimum.
No more than 20% of the Gross Investment Properties Value shall be exposed to any one tenant 
or group undertaking of that tenant.
Speculative development (properties under construction, but excluding refurbishment, which 
have not been pre-let) is prohibited. Any other development is restricted to an aggregate 
maximum of 15% of Gross Investment Properties Value at investment or commencement.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
The investment objective of the Company is to deliver an attractive total return to shareholders, 
with a strong focus on income from investing in UK commercial property, predominately in the 
office sector in major regional centres and urban areas outside of the M25 motorway.

HIGHLY EXPERIENCED ASSET MANAGER
REGIONS PRIMED FOR GROWTH
OUR APPROACH
• 	The Asset Manager has the heritage of a long-established property investment 
management team.
• 	ESR Europe LSPIM is headquartered in Glasgow and has a number of offices around the 
UK, with 77 employees, as at 31 December 2024, working on Regional REIT.
HOW WE ADD VALUE
• 	The capabilities and track record of the management team, including knowledge, expertise 
and established relationships, provide an important competitive advantage for operating 
in the fragmented UK regional property market. The senior management team of the Asset 
Manager collectively have over 180 years of property experience, with a proven record of 
creating value.
• 	The Asset Manager grew property rental income for a similar portfolio on a like-for-like 
basis through the 2008-12 recession. 
PROGRESS DURING THE YEAR
• 	Completed 61 new lettings in 2024, 13.5% above 2023 ERV, which after the expiry of rent 
incentives will provide a gross rental income of £3.2 million.
OUR APPROACH
• 	The resilient regions are expected to benefit from future capital inflows, a strong rebound 
of the UK economy and governmental resource allocation, which should conflate to ensure 
occupier demand for offices grows.
• 	According to monthly data from MSCI, income return held up well for the rest of UK office 
markets in the 12 months ended December 2024 at 7.1%. 
HOW WE ADD VALUE
• 	The investment policy focuses on a portfolio of offices located outside of the M25 
motorway, broadly based on the region’s economic worth and population mix.
• 	The Group seeks to enhance income growth and capital values through the proactive 
approach of the Asset Manager.
• 	The Asset Manager operates through a number of regional offices, implementing a 
targeted investment policy and individual property asset management plans.

ACTIVE MANAGEMENT OF THE PROPERTIES
OPPORTUNISTIC APPROACH TO PROPERTY INVESTMENT
OUR APPROACH
• 	The Group prides itself on maintaining a close relationship with its tenants and, in the intensive 
granular management of its properties, a very hands-on approach.
• 	Our aim is to provide a consistent approach to improving returns, thereby enhancing the 
quality of the underlying portfolio.
HOW WE ADD VALUE
• 	The Asset Manager undertakes all of the principal property management activities in-house and 
remains close to its tenants, ensuring an immediate understanding of their requirements and 
enabling better decision-making capability.
• 	The Asset Manager utilises a range of approaches to each asset to maximise shareholder value. 
Following the successful equity capital raise in July 2024 the Company is able to focus upon 
accretive alternative uses across the portfolio.
PROGRESS DURING THE YEAR
• 	Net capital expenditure of £8.2 million in 2024 (2023: £10.2 million); capital expenditure is 
recovered through dilapidations, service charges or improved property rental income.
• 	Active and intense asset management maintained EPRA occupancy of 77.5% (2023: 80.0%).
OUR APPROACH
• 	A focus on exploiting pricing inefficiencies and mismatches between regional Core and 
Core Plus and primary property yields.
• 	Following the successful July 2024 equity capital raise the Company is able to undertake 
accretive value add projects.
• 	From such opportunities, the Group will acquire, hold and sell commercial real estate that 
it believes to be mispriced.
• 	Utilising leverage to build the acquisitions capability of the business.
HOW WE ADD VALUE
• 	An opportunistic approach to UK commercial property with recycling of capital from the 
portfolio refreshment programme and aiming to acquire properties where the Group can 
add value through the expertise of the Asset Manager.
• 	Seeking to build the income growth and capital values of properties, taking undermanaged and 
underinvested properties to being attractive investments to be retained for yield or for disposal.
• 	An established borrower with long-term relationships in place with a number of UK banks. 
The Group will exploit opportunities to improve total returns utilising leverage.
• 	With debt maturing and opportunities to renegotiate existing facilities, the Group aims to 
reduce its funding costs.
PROGRESS DURING THE YEAR
• 	The Company completed disposals (net of costs) of £28.6 million, respectively reflecting an 
average net initial yield of 8.3% (10.6% excluding vacant properties), which in conjunction with 
the July 2024 successful £110.5m equity capital raise helped to reduce the Group Net LTV.
• 	During 2024, borrowing repayments totalled £104.0 million, new borrowings were £nil 
million, resulting in total borrowings of £316.7 million. The average funding cost (including 
hedging) was 3.4% (2023: 3.5%).

ASSET MANAGER AND 
INVESTMENT ADVISERS' REPORT
Overview
While 2024 has undoubtedly been another challenging 
year for the property market and the regional office 
market in particular, with the successful equity raise 
in July 2024, Regional REIT enters 2025 with cautious 
optimism. We are beginning to see an improvement 
in sentiment in the UK office market, with the average 
number of days in the office having stabilised at four 
days a week across our portfolio. There is also a growing 
recognition of the vital role the office plays in driving 
productivity and strengthening a company’s culture.
We anticipate a slow and steady improvement to the 
occupational market in 2025, however, it will take time 
for the impact of these changes to flow through to our 
financial performance. On a like-for-like basis the valuation 
of the portfolio fell by 8.2% in the year to £622.5m, 
although the pace of this reduction slowed to 3.1% in the 
second half. If, as is widely forecast, interest rates continue 
to fall then this will bring stability and confidence and 
ultimately be beneficial to real estate values.
Our operational performance continues to be robust. 
At an operational level, the business delivered 61 new 
lettings last year at 13.5% above 2023 ERV, totalling £3.2m 
rent roll. Rent collection remained high at 98.6%, and 
occupancy amounted to 77.5% compared to 80.0% in 
2023. This slight reduction was in part due to the business 
holding some buildings vacant while it progresses planning 
applications to add value.
Importantly, the combination of our ongoing controlled 
disposals programme and the successful £110.5m equity 
raise have transformed Regional REIT’s balance sheet, 
taking LTV to 41.8% at the end of the year from 55.1% 
in 2023. This ensures that we have the resources and 
flexibility to take advantage of the opportunities we see 
to create value across our portfolio. Further reducing LTV 
via selected disposals remains a priority, and a total of 43 
sites totalling c. £106.7m have been earmarked for sale, 
with nine sales totalling £18.6m either contracted, under 
offer, or in negotiation.
Looking ahead, along with a targeted capex programme 
to bring selected assets up to the necessary standard 
to optimise rents, a key objective will be maximising 
the opportunities we see in the portfolio to add value 
by securing planning consents ahead of sales. Over the 
medium term, based on current property values we 
estimate that there is the potential to add substantial 
value through these initiatives. 
There is a lot of work to do. However, the team is laser 
focused on delivering against our restated strategy and 
with a transformed balance sheet there are extensive 
opportunities across the portfolio. Regional REIT is well 
placed to deliver against its objective of being a high 
dividend paying REIT, while also pursuing added capital 
value. 
We are beginning to see an improvement in 
sentiment in the UK office market, with the 
average number of days in the office having 
stabilised at four days a week. There is also a 
growing recognition of the vital role the office 
plays in driving productivity and strengthening 
a company’s culture.”

KEY POINTS FROM 2024
HIGH LEVEL OF RENT COLLECTION
Achieved a high level of rent collection. As at 14 
March 2025, rent collection remains robust, with FY 
2024 at 98.6%, adjusting for monthly rent and agreed 
collections plans, which is similar to the equivalent date 
in 2024 when 98.9% had been collected.
Quarterly Investment Volumes (£bn)
UK Office Investment Activity
Investment in UK offices reached £1.8 billion in Q4 2024, 
bringing the total for the year to £7.3 billion, 27% lower than 
20231. The decline in overall office investment was primarily 
driven by a significant drop in London, where investment 
fell by 34% to £4.7 billion in 2024 down from £7.2 billion 
in 2023. The regional office markets also experienced a 
decline in investment in 2024 when compared to 2023 of 
5.5%, an annual total of £2.34 billion from £2.48 billion.
Transactional yields2 for central London offices were 
marginally up for Q4 2024 at 6.02% against the same period 
in Q4 2023. In contrast the transactional yields for rest of 
the UK were 7.75% for Q4 2024, an increase of 0.5% on the 
Q4 2023.
Looking ahead, Lambert Smith Hampton (“LSH”), see 2024 
as an inflection point for the office sector. LSH forecast total 
returns averaging c7.9% per annum citing improved staff 
occupancy and tighter supply. 
Underpinning LSH’s forecast, the Office for National 
Statistics (“ONS”) data3 shows that in 2024, 42% of workers 
in the UK on average travelled exclusively to work, while 
only 13% worked from home full-time, a drop from 25% 
in 2021. Additionally, approximately 26% of UK workforce 
were hybrid working in 2024.
Recent surveys underscore a growing trend toward 
increased office attendance across the UK, driven by new 
policies, improved team engagement, and recognised in-
office benefits.
•	 Centre for Cities Survey4: In London, workers increased 
their office attendance from 2.2 days per week in 2023 to 
2.7 days in 2024, signalling a gradual return.
•	 KPMG Survey5: A survey of financial services leaders 
shows that 76% plan to increase attendance, with 37% 
expecting employees to be in-office at least four days 
weekly.
•	 Willis Towers Watson Survey6: ‘Flexible Work Models 
Pulse’ reports that 60% of UK companies now enforce a 
minimum office-days policy, boosting engagement (85%), 
culture (72%), and learning (69%).
These findings continue to highlight the benefits 
and productivity companies observe from in person 
collaboration.

DISPOSALS PROGRAMME
Disposals during 2024 totalled £28.6 million (net of 
costs), reflecting a net initial yield of 8.3% (10.6% 
excluding vacant assets).
NEW LETTINGS - GREATER THAN ERV
Completed 61 new lettings in 2024, totalling 191,541 
sq ft and 13.5% above ERV, which when fully occupied 
will provide a gross rental income of c. £3.2 million.
INCREASE IN AVERAGE RENT
Average rent by let sq. ft. increased by 1.1% from 
£13.82 per sq. ft. in December 2023 to £13.92 per sq. ft. 
in December 2024. 
OUTPERFORM THE MSCI MONTHLY DATA
The like-for-like value of the portfolio decreased by 
8.2% from 31 December 2023 to 31 December 2024 
after adjusting for capital expenditure, acquisitions 
and disposals during the period (7.1% excluding capital 
expenditure adjustment). Noting that some assets are 
being held for repurposing potential, the MSCI monthly 
data shows capital value decline of 8.9% for rest of UK 
offices over the same period.
INCREASE IN GRESB SCORE
The Company submitted its Fourth Global Real Estate 
Sustainability Benchmark ("GRESB") assessment 
resulting in an increased score of 73 from 66.

Occupational Demand in the UK
Regional Office Market
Avison Young announced that the take-up of office space 
across the nine7 regional markets reached 2.2 million 
square feet (sq.ft.) in Q4 2024, on par with the previous 
quarter and the highest since Q4 2022, 33.9% above the 
previous quarter and 18.2% above the five year quarterly 
average take-up. The annual total was 10% higher than 
2023, at 7.9m sq.ft. with positive occupier sentiment, 
particularly from larger corporates. 
The high demand and short supply across the nine 
regional markets continue to keep rental growth high, 
with an average of 6.6% prime rental growth.
Occupational demand in the regional office markets 
continued to be driven by the financial and professional 
services sector, with both accounting for 18.0% share 
each in Q4 2024. However, the sector with the most 
growth was education and training with 39% annual 
increase.
In terms of the development pipeline, in 2025 it is 
estimated that approximately 2.0 million sq.ft. of office 
space is currently under construction in the Big Nine8 
regional markets, with 36% already pre-let. The estimated 
pipeline total is the lowest since 2017 and therefore likely 
to produce supply shortages. 2024 saw refurbishments 
take a 38% share, up from 24% in 2023 and this trend is 
expected to continue into 2025. The data supports LSH’s 
comment (See UK Office Activity) on tighter supply of 
office space in the forthcoming years.

Rental Growth in the UK Regional Office Market 
According to monthly data from MSCI, rental value 
growth finished the year on a high for ‘Rest of UK 
Office’ markets with growth of 2.4% (see chart below). 
Conversely, central London offices experienced modest 
growth of 1.2% over the same period. Avison Young 
report that seven of the Big Nine’s cities saw an increase 
in their prime rents this quarter; with the top three 
being an increase of:
•	 14.1% to Bristol with £48.50 per square foot (psf)
•	 13.7% to Liverpool at £29.00 psf
•	 12% to Cardiff at £28.00 psf
This brought the Big Nine’s average annual prime rental 
growth to 6.6% in Q4.

Net Asset Value
In the year ended 31 December 2024, the EPRA NTA* of 
the Group increased to £340.7 million (IFRS NAV: £351.6 
million) from £290.8 million (IFRS NAV: £306.1 million) 
as at 31 December 2023, with an EPRA NTA of 210.2pps 
(IFRS: 216.9pps). 
The EPRA NTA increase of £50.0 million since 
31 December 2023 was predominately due to the equity 
capital raise proceeds of £110.5 million, offset by a £54.7 
million reduction in the revaluation of the property 
portfolio held as at 31 December 2024, £2.0 million from 
lease incentives and £3.2 million realised loss on the 
disposal of properties.
The investment property portfolio valuation as at 31 
December 2024 amounted to £622.5 million (2023: 
£700.7 million). The property valuation decrease since the 
December 2023 year end is a reflection of £54.7 million 
in property revaluation, £28.6 million of net property 
disposals and loss on the disposals of £3.2 million, offset 
by subsequent expenditure of £8.2 million.
Overall, on a like-for-like basis, the portfolio value 
decreased by 8.2% during the year.

EPRA Net Tangible Asset (£millions) - Bridge 31 December 2024
The EPRA NTA is reconciled in the table below:
Operating profit before gains and losses on property 
assets and other investments for the year ended 31 
December 2024 amounted to £36.1 million (2023: £43.1 
million). Loss after finance and before taxation of £39.5 
million (2023: loss £67.5 million). 2024 included the rent 
roll for properties held from 31 December 2023, plus the 
partial rent roll for properties disposed of during the year.
Rental and property income amounted to £65.2 million, 
excluding recoverable service charge income and other 
similar items (2023: £70.1 million), the decrease is due to a 
reduction in the rent roll being held during the year to 31 
December 2024. 
More than 80% of the rental income was collected within 
30 days of the due date and the allowance for doubtful 
debts in the year amounted to £0.5 million (2023: £0.5 
million). 
Non-recoverable property costs, excluding recoverable 
service charge income and other similar costs, amounted 
to £19.3 million (2023: £16.3 million), and the rent roll 
amounted to £60.7 million (2023: £67.8 million).
Realised losses on the disposal of investment properties 
amounted to £3.2 million (2023: loss £0.7 million). The loss 
on the disposals were from the aggregate disposal of 18 
properties and three part sales in the period, on which 
individual asset management plans had been completed 
and/or were of sub-optimal asset size. The change in the fair 
value of investment properties amounted to a loss of £54.7 
million (2023: loss of £73.3 million), and an adjustment of 
£2.0 million (2023: £13.0 million) from rent smoothing.
Net capital expenditure amounted to £8.2 million (2023: 
£10.2 million). The change in value of right of use assets 
amounted to a charge of £0.1 million (2023: charge £0.1 
million).
Interest income amounted to £1.4 million (2023: £0.1 
million). 
Finance expenses amount to £15.2 million (2023: £16.2 
million). The decrease is due to the 4.5% £50 million 
of Retail Bonds being repaid in August 2024 and net 
borrowings being repaid during the year, amounting to 
£54.0m in the year.
The EPRA* cost ratio, including direct vacancy costs, was 
44.7% (2023: 38.5%). The increase in the cost ratio is 
ostensibly a reflection of the increase in Other property 
expenses and irrecoverable costs. The EPRA cost ratio, 
excluding direct vacancy costs was 17.4% (2023: 16.4%). 
The ongoing charges for the year ending 31 December 
2024 were 9.3% (2023: 7.5%) and 3.5% excluding void costs 
(2023: 3.2%). 
The EPRA Total Return from Listing to 31 December 2024 
was 5.6% (2023: 12.7%), with an annualised rate of 0.6% pa 
(2023: 1.5% pa).
Dividend
In relation to the year from 1 January 2024 to 31 
December 2024, the Company declared dividends 
totalling 7.80pps (2023: 5.25pps). Prior to the capital raise 
and share consolidation, the Company declared a Q1 
2024 dividend of 1.2pps. Following the capital raise and 
subsequent share consolidation, the Company declared a 
Q2 2024 dividend of 2.2pps on 10 September 2024, a Q3 
2024 dividend of 2.2pps on 13 November 2024, and a Q4 
2024 dividend of 2.2pps on 20 February 2024. A schedule

PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
Effective risk management is embedded throughout 
Regional REIT and underpins the execution of the 
Company’s strategy, the positioning of the business for 
growth and maintaining the regular income over a long-
term sustainable horizon. 
Risk Framework and Approach
The Board acknowledges the importance of embedding 
a framework to identify, actively monitor, managing and 
mitigating its risks, which include, but are not limited to: 
strategic, valuation, healthcare, economic and political, 
funding, tenant, financial and tax charges, operational, 
regulatory, environmental risks and emerging risks.
The Board has overall responsibility for the Company’s 
system of risk management and internal controls and is 
supported by the Audit Committee in the management of 
risk. The Audit Committee is responsible for determining 
the principal risks facing the business and reviewing, at 
least annually, the effectiveness of the Company’s financial 
control, risk management and internal control processes.
Over the long term, the business will face other challenges 
and emerging threats for which it remains vigilant. 
However, the Board also views the risks as opportunities 
that, when effectively managed, can enhance 
performance. Thus, having an effective risk management 
process is key to support the delivery of the Company’s 
strategy.
Identification
Evaluation
Mitigation
Approach to Managing Risk – Identification, 
Evaluation and Mitigation
The risk management process emphasis is upon 
awareness and is structured to identify, evaluate, manage 
and mitigate, rather than eliminate risks faced. The 
Company maintains a detailed and formal matrix of 
current principal risks, which uses risk scoring to evaluate 
risks consistently. This allows the risks to be monitored 
and mitigated as part of a risk management process with 
the Audit Committee undertaking, at a minimum on a 
six-monthly basis or more frequently if required, a robust 
evaluation of these risks facing the Company. 
Risks are identified and assessed according to their 
potential impact on the Company and to their likelihood of 
occurrence. The Audit Committee utilises the risk matrix 
to prioritise individual risks, allocating scores to each risk 
for both the likelihood of its occurrence and the severity of 
its impact. Those with the highest gross rating in terms of 
impact are highlighted as top risks within the matrix and 
are defined as principal risks. 
Although the Board believes that it has a robust 
framework of internal controls in place, it recognises it 
can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance 
against material financial misstatement or loss and is 
designed to manage, not eliminate, risk.

RISK MANAGEMENT APPROACH
Risk Appetite
Taking risks is an essential and inherent facet of operating 
any business. As such the risk management approach is 
not to eliminate all risk but to ensure that appropriate 
strategies are in place to identify, actively monitor, manage 
and mitigate the key risks.
The Board is responsible for defining the level of risk that 
the Company assumes and ensuring that it remains in-
line with the Company’s strategy. Risk appetite is integral 
to the Board’s approach to risk management, business 
planning and decision making. The level and type of risk 
that the Company is willing to bear will vary over time. 
The Board, in collaboration with the Asset Manager and 
Investment Manager, and with the latest information 
available, regularly reviews the risk appetite of the 
Company allowing a prompt response to identified 
emerging risks.
Emerging Risks
The Board is cognisant of emerging risks defined as 
potential trends, sudden events or changing risks, which 
are characterised by a high degree of uncertainty in terms 
of probability of occurrence and possible effects on the 
Company. Once emerging risks become sufficiently clear, 
they may be classed as a principal risk and added to the 
risk matrix. 
To help manage emerging risks and discuss other wider 
matters affecting property, the Board has an annual strategy 
meeting. The Board considers having a clear strategy is the 
key to managing and mitigating emerging risk.
The Company’s principal risks consist of the ten most 
significant risks which are composed of eight strategic 
and two operational risks. The strategic risks relate to 
investment strategy, valuation, healthcare, economics 
and political, funding, tenant, financial and tax changes, 
and environmental and energy efficiency standards; 
operational risk encompasses business disruption, and 
accounting, legal and regulatory. 
The below list, in no particular order, sets out the current 
identifiable principal and emerging risks, including their 
impact and the actions taken by the Company to mitigate 
them. It does not purport to be an exhaustive list of all the 
risks faced by the Company.

Significant political events could impact 
the health of the UK economy, resulting in 
borrowing constraints, changes in demand 
by tenants for suitable properties, the 
quality of the tenants, and ultimately the

•   The Company operates with a sole 
focus on the UK regions, with no foreign 
currency exchange exposure. It remains 
well positioned with a deliberately 
diverse standard industry classification 
of tenants generating 780 (2023: 978) 
income streams which are located in 
areas of expected economic growth. 
•	 The Board receives advice on macro-

Bank reference interest rates may be set 
to become more volatile, accompanying 
volatile inflation.
•   Policy of hedging at least 90% of

issues and to manage any potential bad 
debts.
•	 Diversified portfolio of properties let, 
where possible, to a large number of 
low-risk tenants across a wide range 
of standard industrial classifications 
throughout the UK.
•	 Potential acquisitions are reviewed 
for tenant overlap and potential 
disposals are similarly reviewed for 
tenant standard industrial classification 
concentration.
•   This risk remains stable in view of the 
increasing diversification of properties, 
tenants and geographies in the 
portfolio. 
•	 The tenant mix and their underlying 
activity has continued to increasingly 
diversify, with the number of tenants 
amounting to 780 at the year-end (2023: 
978).
A high concentration of lease term 
maturity and/or break options could result 
in a more volatile contracted rent roll.
•   The portfolio lease and maturity 
concentrations are monitored by the 
experienced Asset Manager to minimise 
concentration.
•	 There is a focus on securing early 
renewals and increased lease periods.
•	 The requirement for suitable tenants 
and the quality of the tenant is 
managed by the experienced Asset 
Manager who maintains close

Changes to the Principal Risks and 
Uncertainties
The Board, via the Audit Committee, has reviewed and 
agreed the movement during the year to each of the 
identified principal risks and uncertainties following review 
of these risks, having considered the characteristics of 
these and the broader economic and geopolitical factors 
influencing them.
A potential emerging risk is the adoption of artificial 
intelligence in office-based roles, which could pose both 
a risk and opportunity for the demand of office space. 
The Board, alongside the Asset and Investment Manager, 
continues to monitor developments in this area.
The potential impact of these risks on the Company’s long-
term strategy is considered evaluated to ensure informed 
decision-making and proactive management.
Going Concern
The Directors confirm that they have a reasonable 
expectation that the Group has adequate resources 
to continue as a going concern. This expectation is 
underpinned by having made an assessment of the 
Group’s ability to continue in operational existence, 
giving due consideration to the Group’s cashflow 
forecast, which encompasses cash resources, rental 
income, acquisition and disposals of investment 
properties, elective and committed capital expenditure, 
dividend distributions and the borrowing facilities and 
the respective maturities.
Following the successful completion of the £110.5 million 
equity capital raise in July 2024, the Group ended the 
year under review with £56.7 million of cash and cash 
equivalents, of which £55.9 million was unrestricted cash. 
The borrowing facilities remained compliant with all 
loan covenants, with a net LTV of c. 41.8%, based upon 
the value of the Group’s investment properties as at 31 
December 2024. Rental income collections remained 
robust with 98.6% of rent invoiced in the year collected as 
at 14 March 2025. 
Given the substantial amount of unrestricted cash 
currently held by the Group and, with the next borrowing 
due to mature being the Royal Bank of Scotland, Bank 
of Scotland and Barclays £99.8 million facility in August 
2026, the Directors are satisfied that the Group and 
Company have adequate resources to continue in 
operational existence for a period of at least 12 months 
from the date that these Financial Statements were 
approved. Based on the above, together with available 
market information, the Directors are not aware of any 
material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt 
upon the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. 
Accordingly, the Directors consider that it is appropriate 
to continue to prepare the Financial Statements on a 
going concern basis.
Viability Statement
In accordance with the Association of Investment 
Companies Code of Corporate Governance (the “AIC 
Code”) the Directors have assessed the prospects of the 
Group and future viability over a three-year period from 
the year end, being longer than the 12 months required 
by the going concern provision. The Board conducted 
the review with regard to the Group’s long-term strategy, 
principal risks and risk appetite, current position asset 
performance and future plans. Following this review, the 
Board determined that three years to 31 December 2027 
is the maximum timescale over which the performance 
of the Group can be forecast with any material degree 
of accuracy and is therefore an appropriate period over 
which to consider the Group’s viability. Achievement of 
the one-year forecast has a greater level of certainty 
and is used to set near-term targets across the Group. 
Achievement of the subsequent forecasted years is less 
certain than the one-year forecast. However, the Board’s 
forecast provides a longer-term outlook against which 
strategic decisions can be made.

Assessment of Review Period
The Board chose to conduct the review for a three-year 
period giving consideration to:
• 	The Group’s WAULT of 2.9 years to first break
• The Group’s detailed forecast covering a rolling three 
year period
• The Group’s weighted average debt to maturity was 2.9 
years as at 31 December 2024
Assessment of Prospects and Viability
The financial planning process considers the Group’s 
profitability, capital values, LTV, cashflows, dividend cover, 
banking covenants, the near-term funding obligation 
and other key financial metrics over the coming three-
year period. Given the recent successful capital raise of 
£110.5m the Group has substantial cash resources, which 
have in part been used to de-gear its financial position. In 
addition, given the more favourable lending environment 
for property the Group is in a good position to refinance 
the next bank loan maturity in August 2026 of £99.8 
million. 
Furthermore, the Board, in conjunction with the Audit 
Committee, carried out a robust assessment of the 
principal risks and uncertainties facing the Group, 
including those that would threaten its business model, 
strategy, future performance, solvency or liquidity over 
the three-year period. The risk review process provided 
the Board with assurance that the mitigations and 
management systems are operating as intended. 
The Board believes that the Group is positioned to 
manage its principal risks and uncertainties successfully, 
notwithstanding the current economic and political 
environment. The Board’s expectation is further 
underpinned by the regular briefings provided by each 
of the Asset Manager and Investment Adviser. These 
briefings consider market conditions, investment 
opportunities, the Company’s ability to raise third-
party funds and deploy these promptly, changes in the 
regulatory landscape and current political and economic 
risks and uncertainties. These risks, and other potential 
risks which may arise, continue to be closely monitored by 
the Board.
Confirmation of Viability
The Board confirms that it has a reasonable expectation 
that the Group will be able to continue in operation and 
meet its liabilities as they fall due over the next three 
years, taking into account the Group’s current position and 
the principal risks and uncertainties. 
The Directors have carefully reviewed areas of potential 
financial risk. The Directors have satisfied themselves that 
the Group has adequate financial resources to continue in 
operational existence for the foreseeable future.

SUSTAINABILITY REPORT
YEAR IN FOCUS
In 2024, the Company experienced a continued increase 
in office space utilisation, reflecting sustained tenant 
demand. This uptick led to higher energy consumption 
across the portfolio. However, the Company implemented 
measures to mitigate this rise, resulting in a net reduction 
in overall energy usage.
Throughout 2024, the Company continued integrating 
sustainable practices to drive positive environmental 
and social impact while balancing the evolving needs of 
stakeholders.
•   The ESG Working Party which comprises of a Non-
Executive Board Director and members from the Asset 
Manager and Investment Adviser met 4 times in 2024.
•   Improved performance against the Company’s 
sustainability key performance indicators (“KPIs”).
•   Development of a sustainability action plan at property 
level. 
•   The Asset Manager continued to issue new and updated 
policies and procedures; and practices were updated to 
better reflect the Company’s sustainability objectives.
•   ESG criteria continued to be integrated within due 
diligence procedures; setting out how the Company 
assesses and manages the performance of its assets and 
prospective investments; and who is chosen to engage 
and work with.
•   Continued to engage CBRE as the lead advisor to the 
Group on ESG strategy.
•   Continued to engage with our occupiers by promoting 
sustainable practices and also in the obligations they 
commit to; for example, by including green lease clauses 
within the contractual terms for all new leases issued for 
agreement.
•   Submitted the Company’s third Global Real Estate 
Sustainability Benchmark (“GRESB”) assessment resulting 
in an increased score to 73 from 66.
•   Submitted the third submission to the European 
Public Real Estate Association (“EPRA”) sustainability 
performance report maintaining the silver award.
•   Successful installation of Smart Technology in a controlled 
test sample of properties. aiming at reducing energy 
waste.
•   As part of the Net Zero Carbon study, and with the 
assistance of CBRE, a baselining exercise was undertaken 
using Carbon Risk Real Estate Monitor (CRREM) 
methodology to assess the current portfolio’s carbon 
performance. 
•   Continued training of appropriate Asset Manager’s team 
members to ensure the Asset Manager’s best practice 
refurbishment and capital expenditure guides are 
adhered to.

In 2024, the Company made significant progress on key 
sustainability performance indicators. The GRESB rating 
increased to 73 points (from 66 in 2023), earning two 
Green Stars and reflecting the hard work of the Asset 
Management team, resulting in ongoing improvements in 
our sustainability efforts. 
The Environmental, Social, and Governance (“ESG”) 
Working Party remained focused on enhancing the 
Company’s European Public Real Estate Association 
sustainability accreditation and Energy Performance 
Certificate (“EPC”) ratings, with 82% of the portfolio now 
rated C or higher. The weighted average EPC score also 
improved to C 59 (from C 62 in 2023). 
The Asset Manager and Investment Adviser played a 
key role in driving these advancements, ensuring the 
Company remains on track to meet 2030 regulatory 
requirements. Recognising climate change as a major 
long-term challenge for the commercial real estate sector, 
the Company has committed substantial resources to 
reducing carbon emissions well ahead of the 2050 net-
zero target.
ESG principles continue to be integrated into both 
transactional and operational activities, reinforcing the 
portfolio’s resilience and long-term sustainability. As 
part of this commitment, the CAPEX program totalled 
£8.2 million in 2024 (compared to £10.2 million in 2023), 
prioritising sustainable materials and energy-efficient 
equipment to enhance EPC ratings while maintaining 
a responsible level of investment. The year ahead will 
continue to see a focus on value enhancing CAPEX projects 
across a select number of assets.”

Non - Executive Director
Highlights from the year are as follows:

Year Ahead
The Company’s programme of work for the coming year 
will continue to be in line with the regulatory landscape, 
with a continued focus upon embedding ESG best 
practices across the Group. The constant evolution of 
embedding processes will also enable the Group to adapt 
promptly to meet new challenges as they arise. 
The relevance and importance of sustainability reporting 
is increasingly evidenced by governments publishing 
disclosure requirements and aligning with reporting 
standards, such as those currently being formulated by 
the International Sustainability Standards Board and 
UKPRI. 
Some examples of the programme of work for the year 
ahead are:
• 	Continued review of the portfolio’s EPC ratings, followed 
by the appropriate action to improve and align the 
ratings with the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standard 
(“MEES”).
•	 Tackle areas highlighted for improvement from the 2024 
GRESB and EPRA respective assessment, with the aim 
of continuing to improve our accreditation performance

ESG Working Party Report
The ESG Working Party met 4 times during 2024. The 
membership of the Working Party is made up of a Non-
Executive Director and members of the Asset Manager and 
the Investment Adviser. The Working Party updates the 
Board on its progress. The external ESG consultants, CBRE, 
and energy providers are invited to attend and support 
the ESG Working Party by undertaking specific pieces of 
work and as required providing updates on any possible 
regulatory changes.
The Board has delegated its authorities to the ESG 
Working Party to: 
• 	Assist the Board in defining and regularly reviewing 
the Company’s strategy relating to ESG and in setting 
relevant key performance indicators.
•	 Develop and regularly review the policies, procedures, 
practices and initiatives relating to ESG matters and 
ensure they remain effective, relevant and consistent 
with industry best practice.
•	 Have oversight of the management of ESG matters 
and compliance with relevant statutory, regulatory and 
legal requirements and applicable ESG rules, industry 
standards and guidelines.
•	 Have oversight of responses to investor requests on ESG 
matters.
•	 Report on these matters to the Board and, where 
appropriate, make recommendations to them.
In undertaking this role, the ESG Working Party duties 
include assessing effectiveness in identifying, managing, 
mitigating or eliminating ESG risks and ensuring 
compliance with relevant statutory, regulatory and legal 
requirements as well as applicable ESG rules, industry 
standards and guidelines.
In 2024 the ESG Working Party continued to focus upon 
the processes and steps necessary for embedding ESG 
across the Company and its subsidiaries and the role 
of the Company in its ESG stewardship through its 
investments, external relationships and interactions. 
EPC ratings remains a focus for the working party. CBRE 
continue as the Company's ESG strategy adviser; the 
improvement in both GRESB and EPRA sustainability 
accreditation during the year; the Task Force on Climate-
Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) (See pages 89 to 
93) in improving reporting of climate-related financial 
information; and the Company’s sustainability policy and 
relevant KPIs.
Net Zero Carbon
During 2023 the Company undertook a baselining exercise 
to assess the current portfolio’s carbon performance using 
Carbon Risk Real Estate Monitor (CRREM) methodology 
and to help identify asset alignment with a 1.5-degree 
pathway. The analysis was based on actual data, where 
available (52% of assets), and used industry benchmarks to 
estimate missing data. The resulting portfolio’s 1.5-degree 
decarbonisation pathway, and the associated asset level 
carbon emission breakdown, were evaluated using Pareto 
analysis to identify the top assets that contribute to the 
majority of Regional REIT's carbon emissions. Informed by 
this analysis, the Company plans to undertake detailed Net 
Zero Energy audits to develop asset level action plans and 
to address potential stranding risks.
The next steps in 2025 will be to expand the effort 
in occupier data collection, in order to improve the 
coverage, robustness and granularity of data for the 2025 
calendar year. A recalculation of the baseline and refresh 
of the portfolio decarbonisation pathway can then be 
undertaken based on a greater portion of actual data to 
improve the accuracy of the baseline, expanding the data 
set beyond 52% of the assets. 
The Investment Adviser, ESR Europe Private Markets Ltd., 
is part of the ESR Group, Asia-Pacific's largest real asset 
manager with approximately US$150 billion AUM, and 
the largest sponsor and manager of REITs in the region

Installation Enhances Local Ecosystem at Southgate Park
At a Glance 
In collaboration with our contractor to enhance the 
local ecosystem at Southgate Park. The project included 
the installation of bird and bug houses, along with a 
log pile, to create safe habitats for wildlife. To further 
protect this area, it has been carefully roped off to 
minimise disturbance and allow the local ecosystem to 
thrive!
Solutions 
• Habitat Creation: Installed bird and bug houses, as 
well as a log pile to provide shelter and a food source 
for small wildlife.
• Community Involvement: Cubs decorated and 
assembled the houses alongside the FM Company 
team (see below) which were then transported to 
Peterborough for installation.
By installing bird and bug houses along 
with a log pile, the project provides safe and 
sustainable habitats for local wildlife. This helps 
to support and increase long-term biodiversity.
Benefits 
Community Engagement
Involving the Cub Scout troop in the creation 
of the bird and bug houses fosters a sense of 
involvement and educates young people about 
the importance of wildlife conservation and 
environmental stewardship.
Ecosystem Improvement
The initiative contributes to the overall health 
and balance of the local ecosystem at Southgate 
Park, promoting a more resilient and thriving 
natural environment.

The Board’s oversight of climate-related risks and 
opportunities 
The Board holds ultimate responsibility for overseeing the 
Company’s risks and opportunities, including climate-related 
ones. It receives updates on these matters at each quarterly 
Board meeting.
To carry out its duties, the Board has delegated authority for 
identifying climate-related risks to the Audit Committee. Meeting 
at least twice a year, the Audit Committee oversees the Group’s 
Risk Register, which includes climate-related risks detailed in the 
Principal Risks and Uncertainties section on pages 60 to 72. After 
each meeting, the Committee reports its findings to the Board.
Additionally, the Audit Committee has delegated other climate-
related risk and opportunity responsibilities to the ESG Working 
Party. This group includes Non-Executive Director Massy 
Larizadeh, the Asset Manager, the Investment Adviser, and 
external advisors as needed.
The ESG Working Party met 4 times in 2024 and as required 
provided updates and recommendations to the Audit Committee 
and the Board.
The full risk management approach is set out on page 62.
Board’s role in assessing and managing climate-
related risks and opportunities
The Board holds ultimate responsibility for overseeing and 
managing climate-related risks and opportunities. The Asset, 
Investment, and Property Management teams support the Board 
and Audit Committee by identifying and assessing principal risks 
and uncertainties, including climate-related risks, within the risk 
appetite set by the Board. Risk assessment involves profiling 
and scoring risks before and after mitigation to determine if 
they are improving, worsening, or stable, and to evaluate the 
effectiveness of existing mitigation strategies.
The Board receives quarterly reports on progress toward 
climate-related goals and targets.
The Asset and Property Management teams handle daily 
operations, including implementing the Board-defined risk 
management strategy. The Property Manager is responsible for 
collecting and reporting environmental data, such as energy 
use and GHG emissions, allowing the ESG Working Party, Audit 
Committee, and Board to monitor progress against Board 
targets and take necessary actions.
The Board, along with the Asset, Investment, and Property 
Management teams, receives ESG training annually and as 
needed.

Climate-related risks and 
opportunities identified over 
the short, medium and long 
term.
Recognising that climate–related risks and opportunities materialise over differing 
time horizons the portfolio was considered over the short, medium and long term as 
set out below. 
Short term (0–5 years):
•  Increasing ESG legislation and compliance, including the costs for compliance, as 
well as the costs arising from the breach of legislation
•	 Impact on property values and/or rents if climate-related mitigation actions are not 
undertaken
•	 Integration of ESG into business model
•	 Implementation of new Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards 
•	 Portfolio climate adaption, retrofitting and refurbishment
•	 Increasing cost of supplies and or disruption to supplies for maintenance and 
refurbishment
•	 Increasing costs of utilities
Medium term (5–10 years):
•  Portfolio occupier demand for buildings with higher levels of efficiency, climate 
resilience, and lower carbon footprints
•	 Increased legislation requiring adherence
•	 Inability to access “green” funding 
Long term (10+ years):
•  Continued legislation requirements
•	 Climate change which may impact the portfolio
Identify impact of climate-
related risks and opportunities 
upon the Company’s strategy, 
operations and financial 
planning.
The Board has identified that climate-related risks could impact the Company by:
•  Properties becoming unfit for purpose and asset stranding
•	 Income and expenditure impacts arising from climate-related mitigation strategies
•	 Lessened or improved desirability of its properties 
•	 Pricing of properties
•	 Ability to access funds
•	 Cost of capital
•	 Reputation in the context of climate-related aspects
The Company seeks to embed a sustainable ethos throughout a property's lifecycle. 
This includes mitigating climate risks at the time of purchase through environmental 
assessments and working to extend the life of portfolio assets. The ongoing capital 
expenditure and refurbishment program focuses on improving existing buildings, 
enhancing energy efficiency, increasing EPC ratings, and reducing carbon emissions 
and waste.
Resilience of the organisation’s 
strategy, taking into 
consideration different climate-
related scenarios, including a 
2°c or lower scenario.
The resilience of the organisation’s strategy is assessed by considering various 
climate-related scenarios, including a 2-degree Celsius or lower scenario. The 
climate-related strategy focuses on reducing energy consumption, improving energy 
efficiency, sourcing renewable energy, supporting a low-carbon portfolio, installing 
on-site renewables, and enhancing efficiencies through retrofitting, refurbishment, 
and fit-outs. Where carbon emissions cannot be eliminated, the Company explores 
verified carbon offsetting strategies.The Board evaluates the resilience of its strategies 
through regular performance updates and makes adjustments as needed.
Recommendation
Commentary
Integrate processes for 
identifying, assessing, and 
managing climate-related risks 
into the Company’s overall risk 
management.
Effective risk management underpins the execution of the Company’s strategy. 
The Board is supported by the Audit Committee, which via the Company risk 
register aims to capture the principal risks and uncertainties, including climate 
related risk. Climate-related risks are included within Principal Risks and 
Uncertainties on pages 60 to 72. 
Any identified climate-related risks and identified emerging risks are included with 
the Risk Register and managed appropriately by the Board in the future as the 
need arises. 
Board meetings are held at least quarterly and Audit Committee meetings at least 
bi-annually, with ad hoc meetings called as circumstances demand. 
The respective Company oversight bodies are kept appraised of the changing 
climate-related landscape by its appointed external advisers. Allowing ample time 
for the required actions to be put in place. An overview of the risk management 
process is set out in the above organogram on page 91.
Recommendation
Commentary
Metrics used by the Company 
to assess climate-related 
risks and opportunities are in 
line with its strategy and risk 
management process.
The Company reports in line with: 
•  The GRESB Standing Investments Benchmark; and
•	 EPRA Sustainability Best Practices Recommendations for sustainability reporting. 
EPRA performance tables are detailed later in this Sustainability Report.
Disclose Scope 1, Scope 2, 
and, if appropriate, Scope 
3 greenhouse gas (GHG) 
emissions, and the related 
risks.
The Company reports Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions in accordance with EPRA 
recommendations and as set out for the years 2023 and 2024 separately in this 
Report.
Targets used by the Company 
to manage climate-related 
risks and opportunities and 
performance against targets.
Through the ESG Working Party, the Company has established key performance 
indicators and targets as set out elsewhere in this report. The ESG Working Party 
measures performance against the targets and will report its findings to the Board.
C. EPRA Sustainability Best Practices 
Recommendations
The Company has chosen to report its material, 
environmental, social and governance data in accordance 
with the fourth edition of the European Public Real Estate 
Association (‘EPRA’) Best Practices Recommendations 
(“sBPR”), April 2024. 
EPRA is a non-profit association representing Europe’s 
publicly listed property companies. By responding to 
EPRA, the Company is promoting sustainability within the 
property portfolio, while also identifying opportunities for 
further improvements relating to sustainability regulations 
and initiatives. 
This EPRA report is over three sections:
1. Overarching recommendations; 
2. Environmental performance measures; and
3. Social and Governance performance measures.

1. Overarching Recommendations 
Organisational boundaries
The Company’s EPRA sustainability reporting covers 
properties held as at 31 December 2024.
Coverage
The coverage of absolute performance measures amounts 
to 83.3% of all property assets held at 31 December 2024. 
The remaining assets are single or multiple occupancy 
assets with no landlord-obtained electricity gas and water 
(“Utilities”). 
The absolute performance measures relate to electricity, 
fuels and associated greenhouse gas (“GHG”) emissions 
where the Company procures Utilities for common areas, 
shared services, occupier areas and those properties that 
are vacant. 
The measurements compared to 2023 shows the back 
to office trend following covid which shows a natural 
increase in utility usage.
We are committed to continually increasing the coverage 
of data collection 2024 and working with tenants has 
allowed us to increase the installation of electricity and 
water meters enabling us to report. 
Like-for-like performance measures include properties 
for which the Company has collected three years' worth 
of consistent data and excludes properties sold, acquired 
or under development during the period 1 January 
2022 to 31 December 2024. The like-for-like portfolio 
therefore represents 79.9% of the assets covered in the 
organisational boundaries, and data coverage is 100% 
of these properties. Data was collected in the years 
following covid for which time properties were not fully 
occupied or utilised.
The Company aims to complete annual health and safety 
assessments for 100% of the assets, excluding those where 
the responsibility for health and safety assessments is with 
the occupier. 
Boundaries – Reporting on Landlord and 
Occupier Consumption
The energy and associated GHG emissions data reported 
includes:
• 	Electricity and fuel consumption which the Company 
purchases as landlord covers common areas, shared 
services and occupier areas where this consumption is 
not sub-metered but recharged via the service charge. 
•	 Utilities procured directly by occupiers is excluded as it 
falls outside the Company’s operational control. 
Estimation of landlord-obtained Utility 
Consumption
All data is based on invoices and/or meter readings where 
available. Estimations have been applied where invoices 
were not available at the time of publication. In these 
instances, the Company has estimated the consumption 
data based on the most recent invoice or reading for the 
corresponding period. 
Analysis – Normalisation
Energy and emissions intensity indicators are calculated 
using floor area sq. ft. for whole buildings. The Company 
is aware of a mismatch between the numerator 
and denominator, as in some properties the utilities 
consumption relates to common areas only, and in others 
it covers both shared services, outside space and occupier 
areas where there are no sub-meters.
Analysis – Segmental Analysis (by Property 
Type, Geography)
Sector analysis is organised by the property classification as 
set out in the Asset Management section of the Company’s 
financial reporting. Additional segmental analysis by 
geography is not applicable as all assets are in the United 
Kingdom.
Reporting Period
• 	Absolute performance measures and intensity metrics 
are reported for the most recent reporting year for which 
the Company holds full reporting data at the date of this 
report year ending 31 December 2024.
•	 Like-for-like performance measures are reported for the 
three most recent reporting years that the Company can 
collect consumption data for years ending 31 December 
2021 to 31 December 2024.
Disclosure on Manager’s Offices
Utilities associated with the Manager’s office consumption 
and the Manager’s employee-related performance 
measures are excluded, apart from where the Manager’s 
space is leased from the Company, as they fall outside the 
scope of the organisational boundaries. 
Data Verification and Assurance
All data is reviewed for consistency and coherence prior 
to disclosure. A third party, Carbon Footprint conducts a 
review of the data providing assurance of the data’s validity.
Materiality
The following EPRA sustainability performance measures 
were not considered material and have therefore been 
excluded from reporting: 
• 	District heating or cooling (“DH&C”); absolute & DH&C-like 
for like: No DH&C is procured across the portfolio. 
•  Diversity-Emp; Diversity-Pay; Emp-Training; Emp-Dev; 
Emp-Turnover & H&S-Emp: The Group has no direct 
employees. All administrative functions associated 
with the management of the portfolio are conducted 
by the Asset Manager and Investment Adviser, which 
are separate legal entities and therefore outside the 
organisational boundaries of this report. 
•  Waste-absolute & Waste-like for like: Operational waste is 
generated solely by the occupiers and is therefore outside 
of the Company’s control. Waste generated through 
the Company’s refurbishment/development activities is 
excluded from the scope of the EPRA sBPR.

The Directors’ principal duty is to act in good faith and in 
a way that is most likely to promote the success of the 
Company, as set out in Section 172 of the UK Companies 
Act 20061. In doing so, the Directors must take into 
consideration the interests of the various stakeholders of 
the Company, the impact it has on the community and the 
environment, take a long-term view on the consequences 
of the decisions they make, as well as aim to maintain a 
reputation for high standards of business conduct and 
fair treatment between the members of the Company. 
Fulfilling these duties supports the Company in achieving its 
investment strategy and helps to ensure that all decisions 
are made in a responsible and sustainable way.
Board Decision-Making
The importance of stakeholder considerations, in the 
context of decision making, is taken into account at every 
Board meeting. All discussions involve careful consideration 
of the longer-term consequences of any decisions and 
their implications for stakeholders. The relevance of each 
stakeholder group may increase or decrease by reference 
to the issue in question, so the Board seeks to understand 
the needs and priorities of each group during its 
discussions. Examples of material matters discussed during 
the year are set out in the Chairman’s Statement on pages 
22 to 27 and below. In addition, the Investment Strategy 
and Business Model set out on pages 28 to 33 gives 
examples of how we approach each specific element of our 
strategy which supports the business model, including an 
explanation of our values and approach. 
Our Stakeholders
During the period under review, the Board has continued to 
discuss and monitor which parties should be considered as 
stakeholders and has again concluded that, as an externally 
managed investment company with no employees or 
customers, its key stakeholders comprise, in no particular 
order, its tenants, shareholders, Asset Manager, Investment 
Adviser, other service providers and lenders. The section 
below sets out why these stakeholders are considered 
of importance to the Company and the actions taken to 
ensure that their interests are taken into account. 
Tenants
The ability of the Company to meet its investment 
objective requires a strong focus on generating income 
from the property portfolio. To do this, the Company 
must understand its tenant needs, challenges and future 
aspirations to retain lettings and lease renewals. The 
Company has engaged a dedicated Property Manager, 
ESR Europe PM Limited, formerly L&S PM Limited, to 
manage the day-to-day property management and 
tenant interaction. The Property Manager regularly visits 
properties and communicates with existing tenants to 
understand their needs and improve their satisfaction. This 
improves retention rates and attracts prospective tenants.
During the year, the Asset and Property Manager continued 
to engage with tenants to understand their needs. The 
Board firmly believes that by supporting tenants and 
strengthening existing relationships, future occupancy 
levels will improve, which will, in turn, maintain and 
generate income for the Company. The Asset Manager 
reports at a high level on its engagement with tenants 
at every Board meeting. The Board recognises that the 
Company has certain responsibilities to its stakeholders 
and wider society and aims to conduct itself responsibly, 
ethically and fairly. Further details can be found on pages 
76 to 96.
Shareholders
Continued shareholder support and engagement are critical 
to the existence of the Company and the delivery of its 
long-term strategy. The Board oversees the delivery of the 
investment objective, policy and strategy, as agreed by the 
Company’s shareholders. 
The Board is committed to maintaining open channels of 
communication and to engage with all shareholders in 
a meaningful manner to gain an understanding of their 
views. The Board ensures it has a clear understanding 
of shareholders’ views by receiving regular updates and 
feedback from the Company’s Corporate Broker, Financial 
Adviser, Asset Manager and Investment Adviser on 
shareholder matters.

To assist the Board in the day-to-day operations of the 
Company, arrangements have been put in place to delegate 
authority for the performance of day-to-day operations of 
the Company to the Asset Manager, Investment Adviser and 
other third-party service providers. The Asset Manager and 
Investment Adviser are in frequent contact with the Board 
and the Asset Manager supplies the Directors with regular 
updates on the Company’s activities and detailed reports at 
each Board meeting. 
The performance of both the Asset Manager and 
Investment Adviser is critical for the Company to 
successfully deliver its investment strategy and meet its 
objective to provide shareholders with an attractive total 
return of greater than 10% per annum.
Maintaining a close and constructive working relationship 
with the Asset Manager and Investment Adviser is crucial 
as all three parties aim to achieve the investment objective. 
Important components in the collaboration with the Asset 
Manager and Investment Adviser, representative of the 
Company’s culture, are:
• 	Encouraging open discussion with each of the Asset 
Manager and Investment Adviser, allowing time and 
space for original and innovative thinking;
• 	Recognising that the interests of shareholders and 
the Asset Manager and Investment Adviser are for the 
most part well aligned, adopting a tone of constructive 
challenge, balanced when those interests are not fully 
congruent by robust negotiation of their terms of 
engagement;
• 	Drawing on Board Members’ individual experience to 
support the Asset Manager and Investment Adviser in the 
monitoring and development of the property portfolio;
• 	Supporting the Asset Manager and Investment Adviser in 
their philanthropic activities; and
• 	Willingness to make the Board’s experience available to 
support the Asset Manager and the Investment Adviser 
in the sound long-term development of its business and 
resources, recognising that the long-term health of the 
Asset Manager and Investment Adviser is in the interests 
of shareholders in the Company.
The Board receives presentations from the Asset Manager 
at every Board meeting to help it to exercise effective 
oversight of the Asset Manager and the Company’s strategy.
On behalf of the Company’s shareholders, the Management 
Engagement and Remuneration Committee (the “MERC”) 
conducts an annual review of the performance of the Asset 
Manager and Investment Adviser. Details are set out on 
page 149.
Other Service Providers
The Company’s day-to-day operational functions are 
delegated to a number of third-party service providers, 
each engaged under separate contracts. The Company’s 
principal third-party service providers include the Company 
Secretary, Corporate Brokers and Financial Advisers, 
Administrator, Legal Adviser, Tax Adviser, Depositary and 
the Registrar. The Company relies on these reputable 
advisers for support in complying with all relevant legal 
and regulatory obligations. The Board maintains regular 
contact with its key third-party service providers, taking a 
constructive and positive approach to working with them 
with the aim of building long-term relationships. Their 
advice, as well as their needs and views, are routinely taken 
into account.
The MERC formally assesses the performance of third-party 
service providers, fees and continuing appointment at least 
annually to ensure that the key third-party service providers 
continue to function at an acceptable level. Further 
information is set out on page 149.
Lenders
Availability of funding and liquidity are crucial to the 
Company’s ability to take advantage of investment 
opportunities as they arise.
The Company maintains strong relationships with current 
lenders, providing regular updates on at least a quarterly 
basis, and also maintains regular contact with prospective 
lenders to ensure it is well placed to secure additional 
funding when required.
Considering how important the availability of funding is, the 
Company aims to demonstrate to lenders that it is a well-
managed business, and in particular, that the Board focuses 
regularly and carefully on the management of risk.
Shareholder Meetings
The Asset Manager, Investment Adviser and the Company’s 
Corporate Brokers and Financial Adviser are in regular 
contact with major shareholders, which includes meetings 
and roadshows. Meetings are held with institutional 
shareholders, private shareholders, wealth managers, and 
sell-side equity analysts to present the Group’s financial and 
operational results and to discuss the strategy and business 
model, as well as the UK regional commercial property 
market. 
The Asset Manager and Investment Adviser report the 
results of all meetings and the views of those shareholders 
to the Board on a regular basis. 
The Company also encourages investors and analysts to 
utilise its online facilities and communications and has 
developed a comprehensive website of Group-specific 
information and other information generally useful to real 
estate investment trust investors and analysts.
The Investment Adviser regularly participates in investor 
relations programmes to raise the profile of the Company 
and to attract new shareholders.
The Chair, the Senior Independent Director, the Audit 
Committee Chair and Board members are available to meet 
with shareholders to understand their views on governance 
and performance should they wish to do so. Relations with 
shareholders are also considered as part of the annual 
Board Performance Review process and details can be 
found on page 132.
Investor Relations Updates
At almost every Board meeting, the Directors receive an 
investor relations update from the Investment Adviser 
on the share trading activity, share price performance 
and any shareholder feedback, as well as an update on 
any publications or comments by press and analysts. 
The Company’s Corporate Brokers and Financial Adviser 
also regularly attend Board meetings to provide updates 
on the Equity and Real Estate markets, sector and peer 
performance.
AGM
The Company welcomes and encourages attendance and 
participation of shareholders at the AGM, during which the 
Board, Asset Manager and Investment Adviser intend to 
make themselves available to discuss issues affecting the 
Company and answer any questions. The Asset Manager 
generally prepares a presentation on the Company’s 
performance and its future outlook.
The Company values any feedback and questions that it 
may receive from shareholders ahead of and during the 
AGM, and will take action or make changes, as and when 
appropriate. Shareholders wishing to raise questions or 
concerns directly with the Chairman, Senior Independent 
Director or Company Secretary, outside of the AGM, should 
do so using the Registered Office contact details provided 
on page 221.
Publications
The Company releases regular trading updates and 
announcements to the market regarding performance. 
The Annual Report and Half-Year report are made 
available on the Company’s website, together with other 
communications to shareholders. These reports provide 
shareholders with a clear understanding of the Company’s 
performance and financial position. This information is 
supported by regular announcements on activity within the 
property portfolio, such as lettings, lease extensions and 
acquisitions announced via the London Stock Exchange, 
which are also available on the Company’s website. 
Following the announcement of the Company’s full and 
half-yearly results, a presentation is held for analysts and 
investors.
The Asset Manager and Investment Adviser
The Board has overall responsibility for the Company’s 
activities, including the review of investment activity 
and performance and the control and supervision of all 
suppliers of services to the Company, including the Asset 
Manager and Investment Adviser. It is also responsible 
for the determination of the Company’s investment policy 
and strategy and the Company’s system of internal and 
financial controls, including ensuring that commercial risks 
and financing needs are properly considered and that the 
obligations of a public limited company are adhered to.

Asset Manager
The Asset Management Agreement was assigned to London 
& Scottish Property Investment Management Limited 
on 3 May 2019 from an existing entity within the Asset 
Manager group following a restructure. The Asset Manager 
is engaged to provide asset management services to the 
Company, Regional Commercial Midco Limited (“Midco”) 
and the respective Group limited companies which hold the 
properties directly.
Under the Asset Management Agreement, the Asset 
Manager is responsible for the day-to-day asset 
management of the Property Portfolio, subject to the 
investment objectives of the Company, its investment policy 
(as set out on page 29) and the overall supervision of the 
Board. The Asset Manager will also advise the Company on 
the acquisition, management and disposal of the Group’s 
properties.
In view of the resilient returns of the Company and 
the significant increase in its size, the Board sought to 
secure the services of the Asset Manager. In doing so, the 
Management Engagement and Remuneration Committee 
conducted a review to ensure that the terms of these 
agreements remained appropriate. The Management 
Engagement and Remuneration Committee sought advice 
from Peel Hunt LLP, the Company’s Financial Adviser 
and Broker, and Macfarlanes LLP, the Company’s Legal 
Adviser. Following this review, which included comparisons 
of Shareholder returns against those of its peer group 
and consideration of the interests of the Company; the 
Company, Asset Manager and Investment Adviser each 
agreed to waive their right to issue a termination notice 
on or before 3 November 2022 and the management 
agreements will now continue in force until 3 November 
2026.
Notwithstanding the above terms, the Asset Management 
Agreement may be terminated with immediate effect in 
certain circumstances, including a material unremedied 
breach by the Asset Manager.
The Company or Midco may terminate the Asset 
Management Agreement with immediate effect by giving 
written notice to the Asset Manager in the event of the 
liquidation or insolvency (or analogous event) of the Asset 
Manager.

Limited ("ESR Europe") as the Company's Investment

and the respective companies which hold property directly). 
The Investment Adviser is responsible for the day-to-day 
management of the Company’s investments, subject to 
the investment objective and the investment policy of the 
Company. ESR Europe act as the Company's Alternative 
Investment Fund Manager ("AIFM"), effective from 30 
August 2024, following ESR Europe's authorisation as an 
AIFM by the FCA. ESR Europe was authorised by the FCA on 
1 August 2024 and replaced Toscafund Asset Management 
LLP as AIFM.
In view of the resilient returns of the Company and the 
significant increase in its size, the Board sought to secure 
the services of the Investment Adviser. In doing so, the 
Management Engagement and Remuneration Committee 
conducted a review to ensure that the terms of these 
agreements remained appropriate. The Management 
Engagement and Remuneration Committee sought advice 
from Peel Hunt LLP, the Company’s Financial Adviser 
and Broker, and Macfarlanes LLP, the Company’s Legal 
Adviser. Following this review, which included comparisons 
of shareholder returns against those of its peer group 
and consideration of the interests of the Company; the 
Company, Asset Manager and Investment Adviser each 
agreed to waive their right to issue a termination notice 
on or before 3 November 2022 and the management 
agreements will now continue in force until 3 November 
2026.
Notwithstanding the above terms, the Investment 
Management Agreement shall terminate with immediate 
effect in certain circumstances, including the Investment 
Adviser ceasing for any reason to be authorised under 
Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 to carry out the 
regulated activity of managing an AIF, or the Investment 
Adviser committing a material breach of its obligations 
either (i) not capable of being remedied (after the Company 
has served notice to terminate) or (ii) which is capable of 
being remedied and failing to remedy the same within 30 
days after service of notice by the Company requesting the 
same to be remedied.
The Environment and Society
The Board continues to increase emphasis on the 
importance of sustainability factors in its portfolio and 
investment considerations. The Board, its Asset Manager 
and Investment Adviser are fully committed to managing 
the business, its portfolio and investment strategy 
responsibly. 
The Board receives regular updates from the Company’s 
Environmental Social Governance Working Party on the 
sustainability strategy and provides feedback on their 
approach. Full details can be found on pages 76 to 96.
Principal Decisions Made in 2024
The major decisions taken by the Board during 2024 are 
summarised below and show how the Board had regard 
to its stakeholders and the longer-term success of the 
Company. During this and the previous year, the Chair and 
the Asset Manager and Investment Adviser have met with a 
significant number of shareholders and have established an 
ongoing dialogue with a number of these. This engagement 
has formed the foundation of a number of key decisions 
made during the year.
Principal Decision – Refinancing
Having considered several refinancing options (including 
both equity and debt solutions) to improve its financial 
position, the Board elected to propose to its shareholders 
a Capital Raising in June 2024. The Company successfully 
raised £110.5m of gross proceeds in aggregate, by way of a 
fully underwritten Placing, Overseas Placing and Open Offer 
of 1,105,149,821 New Ordinary Shares. 
The Capital Raising was fully underwritten by Bridgemere 
Investments Limited, whom the Company have welcomed 
as a significant new shareholder. This has enabled the 
Company to significantly strengthen its financial position, 
reduced debt and provide greater financial flexibility and 
liquidity. Following completion of the Capital Raising, the 
Company’s Ordinary Shares were consolidated at the ratio 
of one Consolidated Share for every 10 Ordinary Shares.  
The Company met with stakeholders regularly throughout 
the refinancing process and held extensive discussions 
with third-party advisers, shareholders, and lenders. The 
refinancing has provided capital for capital expenditure 
projects. 
The Property Manager will continue its ongoing programme 
to communicate with existing tenants to understand their 
needs and agree on the required use of capital expenditure 
for necessary refurbishments with the Board, with the aim 
of improving tenant satisfaction and retention rates, and 
attract prospective tenants. These refurbishments also 
underpin the Company's drive for investing sustainably to 
improve EPC ratings across its portfolio.
Principal Decision – 2024 Dividends
The Board remains committed to paying a full-year dividend 
of 7.8 pps (2023: 5.25 pps), while noting that dividend 
levels are subject to various factors, including the Group’s 
financial position, performance, UK REIT requirements, 
and shareholder interests. The Board receives quarterly in 
person up-dates from its Corporate Brokers and Financial 
Advisers, which encompasses the dividend level and 
distribution.
On 29 July 2024, the Company completed a share 
consolidation at a ratio of 1 new share for every 10 existing 
shares.
•	 A Q1 2024 dividend of 1.2 pps was declared before the 
capital raise and share consolidation.
•	 Following these changes, the Company declared:
o	Q2 2024 dividend of 2.2 pps on 10 September 2024
o	Q3 2024 dividend of 2.2 pps on 13 November 2024
o	Q4 2024 dividend of 2.2 pps, on 20 February 2025
Principal Decision – Board Succession 
Planning
Effective succession planning, leading to the refreshment of 
the Board and its diversity, is necessary for the Company’s 
long-term success. 
The Nomination Committee is responsible for Board 
recruitment and conducts a continuous and proactive 
process of planning and assessment, taking into account 
the Company’s strategic priorities and the main trends 
and factors affecting its long-term success and future 
viability. During the year, Mr Hunter and Ms Burstow were 
appointed to the Board. For further information see the 
Nomination Committee Report from page 142.

At any time after the first date on which the EPRA NTA 
exceeds £750,000,000, the Board and the Investment 
Adviser may decide, with the approval of an ordinary 
resolution (upon which neither the Investment Adviser 
nor its associates may vote) that individuals providing the 
services under the Investment Management Agreement 
are to become an internal resource of the Company in lieu 
of the appointment of the Investment Adviser under the 
Investment Management Agreement.
Management and Performance Fees
The Asset Manager and Investment Adviser are each 
entitled, in every financial year (or part thereof), to 50% of 
an annual management fee on a scaled rate. Following a 
review by the Management Engagement and Remuneration 
Committee and having sought advice from Peel Hunt LLP, 
the Company’s Financial Adviser and Broker, the Company, 
Asset Manager and Investment Adviser agreed to amend 
the terms of the annual management fees charged, by 
reducing to: (i) 1.1% of the EPRA NTA up to and equal to 
£500,000,000; (ii) 0.9% of EPRA NTA above £500,000,000 
and up to or equal to £1,000,000,000; (iii) 0.7% of EPRA NTA 
above £1,000,000,000 and up to or equal to £1,500,000,000; 
and (iv) 0.5% of EPRA NTA above £1,500,000,000. Previously 
the annual management fee charged was on a scaled rate 
of 1.1% of the Company’s EPRA NTA, reducing to 0.9% on 
net assets over £500,000,000. The fee shall be payable in 
cash quarterly in arrears.
In addition, the Asset Manager and Investment Adviser 
are each entitled to 50% of a performance fee. The fee is 
calculated at a rate of 15% of Total Shareholder Returns 
in excess of the annual Hurdle Rate of 8% for the relevant 
Performance Period. Total Shareholder Returns for any 
Performance Period consist of the sum of any increase or 
decrease in EPRA NTA per Ordinary Share and the total 
dividends per Ordinary Share declared in the Performance 
Period. Performance Periods are annual, from 1 January to 
31 December. Any performance fee payable for the period 
commencing 1 January 2019 and subsequent periods is to 
be paid in part 34% in cash and 66% in Ordinary Shares. 
Any Ordinary Shares issued to the Asset Manager and 
Investment Adviser are to be issued at the prevailing price 
per Ordinary Share on the date of issue.
A performance fee is only payable in respect of a 
Performance Period where the EPRA NTA per Ordinary Share 
exceeds the high-water mark, which is equal to the greater 
of the highest year-end EPRA NTA per Ordinary Share in 
any previous Performance Period or the Placing Price (100p 
per Ordinary Share). Full details of the Asset Manager and 
Investment Advisers' Performance Fee are given on pages 
157 and 158 of the Company’s Prospectus, published on 24 
June 2019.
Performance Fee
No performance fee crystallised for the performance fee 
period from 1 January 2024 to 31 December 2024.
Continuing Appointment of Asset Manager 
and Investment Adviser
The Board keeps the performance of both the Asset 
Manager and Investment Adviser under continual review. 
The MERC, comprising the independent non-executive 
Directors, conducts an annual review of the performance of 
the Asset Manager and Investment Adviser. Further details 
can be found on page 149.
It is considered that the Asset Manager and Investment 
Adviser has each executed the Company’s investment 
strategy according to the Board’s expectations. Accordingly, 
the Directors believe that the continuing appointment of 
the Asset Manager and Investment Adviser of the Company, 
on the terms agreed, is in the best interests of the Company 
and its shareholders as a whole.
Administrator
The Company appointed Orbitus Fund Services (Guernsey) 
Limited as the Administrator to the Company pursuant 
to an Administration Agreement. Under the terms of the 
Administration Agreement, the Administrator is responsible 
for the Company’s general administrative functions such as

a healthy corporate culture within the Board and in its 
interactions with the Asset Manager and Investment 
Adviser, shareholders and other stakeholders will support 
the delivery of its purpose, values and strategy. The Board 
seeks to promote a culture of honesty and integrity through 
ongoing dialogue and engagement with its stakeholders. 
The Board’s culture itself is one of openness, collaboration 
and transparency of debate. The Board maintains a desire 
for strong governance and diversity of thought, with all 
Directors feeling comfortable giving their opinion in a 
respectful environment, allowing challenge and constructive 
discussion. The culture of the Board is considered as part 
of the annual performance evaluation process which is 
undertaken by each Director. 
The culture of the Group’s service providers, including 
their practices and behaviours, relationships with the 
Board and regular reporting from these stakeholders is 
also considered by the Board during the annual review of 
their performance and while considering their continued 
appointment.

therefore, not considered independent. The Directors 
have considered Ms Burstow’s independence taking into 
account this employment and have noted that there could 
be certain circumstances that might pose a conflict of 
interest to Ms Burstow, but these would be disclosed and, 
in accordance with agreed procedures, Ms Burstow would 
not vote on these issues.

There is no requirement under the Company’s Articles

The beneficial interests of the Directors of the Company are

Share Capital
As at 31 December 2024, the Company’s total issued 
share capital was 162,088,483* Ordinary shares (2023: 
515,736,583).
On 18 July 2024, shareholders approved a Capital Raising 
and Share Consolidation and the Company raised 
approximately £110.5 million of gross proceeds, in 
aggregate, by way of a fully underwritten Placing, Overseas 
Placing and Open Offer of 1,105,149,821 new Ordinary 
Shares. Following completion of the Capital Raising, the 
Ordinary Shares were consolidated at the Consolidation 
Ratio of one Consolidated Share for every 10 Ordinary 
Shares.
All of the Company’s Ordinary Shares are listed on the Main 
Market segment of the London Stock Exchange and each 
Ordinary Share carries one vote.
There is only one class of Ordinary Shares in issue for the 
Company, in adherence to the REIT requirements. The only 
other shares the Company may issue are particular types 
of non-voting restricted preference shares, of which none 
(2023: none) are currently in issue.
At the AGM held on 5 August 2024, the Directors were 
granted authority to allot Ordinary Shares on a non-
pre-emptive basis for cash up to a maximum number of 
16,208,864 shares (being 10% of the issued share capital 
on 19 July 2024). The Directors were also granted the 
authority to disapply pre-emption rights in respect of the 
allotment of Ordinary Shares up to a maximum number of 
16,208,864 Shares (being 10% of the issued share capital 
on 19 July 2024) where the allotment of such shares is 
for the sole purpose of financing an acquisition or other 
capital investment as defined by the Pre-Emption Group’s 
Statement of Principles.
No shares were issued under these authorities during the 
year under review, and the authorities will expire at the 
Company’s 2025 AGM where resolutions for their renewal 
will be sought, or, if sooner, on 5 November 2025.
At the AGM held on 5 August 2024, the Company was 
authorised to purchase up to a maximum of 16,208,864

No shares have been purchased under this authority during 
the year under review, which will expire at the Company’s 
2025 AGM where a resolution for its renewal will be sought, 
or, if sooner, on 5 November 2025.

Restrictions on the Transfer of Shares
Subject to the Articles, as well as applicable foreign 
securities laws, a shareholder may transfer all or any of 
their Ordinary Shares in any manner which is permitted by 
Guernsey law or in any other manner which is from time to 
time approved by the Board.
If any Ordinary Shares are owned directly, indirectly or 
beneficially by a person believed by the Board to be a 
“Non-Qualified Holder” (see below), the Board may give 
notice to such person requiring them either: (i) to provide 
the Board within 30 days of receipt of such notice with 
sufficient satisfactory documentary evidence to satisfy the 
Board that such person is not a Non-Qualified Holder, or (ii) 
to sell or transfer their Ordinary Shares to a person who is 
not a Non-Qualified Holder within 30 days and within such 
30 days to provide the Board with satisfactory evidence of 
such sale or transfer and pending such sale or transfer, the 
Board may suspend the exercise of any voting or consent 
rights and rights to receive notice of or attend any meeting 
of the Company and any rights to receive dividends or other 
distributions with respect to such Ordinary Shares.
Where condition (i) or (ii) is not satisfied within 30 days after 
the serving of the notice, (i) the person will be deemed, 
upon the expiration of such 30 days, to have forfeited their 
Ordinary Shares or (ii) if the Board in its absolute discretion 
so determines, the Company may dispose of the Ordinary 
Shares at the best price reasonably obtainable and pay the 
net proceeds of such a disposal to the former holder.
A Non-Qualifying Holder is defined as any person whose 
ownership of Ordinary Shares, or the transfer of Ordinary 
Shares to such person, may:
• 	cause the Company’s assets to be deemed “plan assets” 
for the purposes of the US Internal Revenue Code of 
1986 (as amended), or US Employee Retirement Income 
Security Act of 1974 (as amended);
•	 cause the Company to be required to register as 
an “investment company” under the US Investment 
Company Act 1940;
•	 cause the Company or any of its securities to be required 
under the US Exchange Act, the US Securities Act or any 
similar legislation;
•	 cause the Company not being considered a “Foreign 
Private Issuer”, as such term is defined in rule 3b-4(c) 
under the US Exchange Act;
•	 cause the Investment Adviser to be required to register as 
a municipal Adviser under the US Exchange Act;
•	 result in the Company being disqualified from issuing 
securities pursuant to Rule 506 of Regulation D under the 
US Securities Act;
•	 cause a loss of partnership status for US federal income 
tax purposes or a termination of the US partnership 
under US Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (as amended), 
Section 708;
•	 result in a person holding Ordinary Shares in violation 
of the transfer restrictions put forth in any prospectus 
published by the Company from time to time; or 
•	 cause the Company to be a “controlled foreign 
corporation” for the purposes of Section 957 of the 
US Internal Revenue Code of 1986, (as amended), or 
may cause the Company to suffer any pecuniary or 
tax disadvantage or any person who is deemed to be 
a Non-Qualified Holder by virtue of their refusal to 
provide the Company with information that it requires in 
order to comply with its obligations under exchange of 
information agreements.

* 	 During the year the Company offered 15 new ordinary shares for every 7 existing shares. This 
resulted in an increase of 1,105,149,821 Ordinary Shares being issued. Subsequently there was a 10 
for 1 split with the resulting Ordinary shares in issue being 162,088,483.

Restrictions on Voting Rights
Other than those discussed above, the Company does not 
have any restrictions on shareholder voting rights.
Substantial Shareholdings
The Company has received notification of the following 
disclosable interests in the voting rights of the Company:
The Company has not been informed of any other changes 
to the notifiable interests between 31 December 2024 and 
the date of this report.
As a company registered in Guernsey, the disclosure 
thresholds for such a non-UK issuer (in accordance with 
Disclosure Guidance & Transparency Rule 5) are 5%, 10%, 
15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 50% and 75%.
Dividend Policy
The Directors maintain a dividend policy which has due 
regard to sustainable levels of dividend cover and reflects 
the Directors’ views on the outlook for sustainable recurring 
earnings, subject to compliance with REIT status requirements.
Under Guernsey law, shareholders are not required to vote 
on the payment of a dividend at the Company’s AGM. Given 
the requirement to distribute at least 90% of qualifying 
property rental business income, it is not thought that this 
adversely impacts shareholders’ rights.
The Company intends to pursue a dividend policy with 
quarterly dividend distributions providing shareholders with 
a regular income. However, the Company reserves the right 
to review future dividend payments.
• 	For the purpose of determining the profits available for a 
dividend distribution, the Company continues to choose 
to treat all of its net income from the Property Related 
Business as qualifying property income, notwithstanding 
that the Company accounts for both property income and 
interest income.
•	 The payment and level of dividends will always remain 
subject to the Company’s performance, its financial 
position, the business outlook and to market conditions.
•	 It is the Company’s intention to continue to declare and 
pay dividends on a quarterly basis. The dividends for the 
first, second and third quarters of any specific financial 
year are expected to be declared at or near the same 
level on a pence per share basis (if necessary, as adjusted 
for any capital raising, consolidation or split). The fourth 
quarter dividend in relation to that same financial year will 
be declared to at least manage compliance with the REIT 
distribution requirement.
•	 The Board will resolve to declare any dividends at an 
appropriate time after the end of the relevant quarter 
dates, being 31 March, 30 June, 30 September, and 31 
December. The dividends will be paid approximately one 
month after being declared.

To maintain REIT status, the Company is required to meet 
a minimum distribution test for each accounting period 
that it is a REIT. This minimum distribution test requires the 
Company to distribute at least 90% of the income profits 
(broadly, calculated using normal tax rules) of the Group to 
the extent that they are derived from the Property Related 
Business of the Group (other than any Property Related 
Business carried on outside the UK by non-UK tax resident 
members of the Group). 
The Company has the ability, by ordinary resolution, to offer 
shareholders the right to elect to receive further Ordinary 
shares, credited as fully paid, instead of cash in respect of all 
or any part of any dividend (a scrip dividend). At the current 
time, and following a consultation with shareholders, it is not 
the Directors’ intention to offer a scrip dividend option for 
the foreseeable future.
Results and Dividends
A summary of the Company’s performance during the 
year and the outlook for the forthcoming year is set out 
in the Chairman’s Statement and the Asset Manager 
and Investment Advisers' Report on pages 22 and 34 
respectively.
The Company declared one quarterly dividend of 1.20pps 
in May 2024 and two quarterly dividends of 2.20pps* 
in September and November 2024. A fourth quarterly 
dividend of 2.20pps for the year ended 31 December 2024 
was declared on 20 February 2025. This dividend will be 
paid on 4 April 2025 to shareholders on the register at the 
close of business on 28 February 2025. The ex-dividend 
date was 27 February 2025 (during 2023, the Company 
declared four quarterly dividends, one of 1.65pps and three 
of 1.20pps).
Articles of Incorporation
In accordance with the Articles of Incorporation, the Board 
must seek shareholder approval to amend the Articles of 
Incorporation. During the year under review, the Board did 
not propose a change to the Articles of Incorporation.
Stakeholder Engagement
While the Company has no employees, suppliers 
or customers, the Directors strive to foster positive 
relationships with the Company’s stakeholders, in particular 
with tenants, shareholders, the Asset Manager, Investment 
Adviser, and other service providers. More information 
about this can be found in the Strategic Report on pages 97 
to 100.
Shareholder Engagement
Communication with shareholders remains of critical 
importance to the Board, who believe that understanding 
the views of shareholders is a key factor in the Group’s 
strategic direction and successful development of the 
business. Further information can be found on pages 97 to 
98.
Financial Risk Management
The principal risks and uncertainties faced by the Group 
and the Group’s policies for managing these risks are set 
out on pages 60 to 72. The principal financial risks relating 
to financial instruments, and details of the risk mitigation 
factors relating to these financial instruments are set out in 
note 30.
Environmental, Social and Governance 
(“ESG”)
Whilst the Group has no direct social or community 
responsibilities, the Company is supportive of the Asset 
Manager and Investment Advisers' philanthropic activities. 
Further details of the Manager’s approach to responsible 
investment practices and sustainability standards and 
the Board’s oversight of this can be found in the Strategic 
Report on pages 76 to 96.
Diversity
The Board of Directors of the Company comprises 
three females and two males. The Board recognises the 
importance and benefits of maintaining the gender and 
ethnic balance of the Board. Notwithstanding this, the 
Board does not consider that it would be appropriate to set 
diversity targets as all Board appointments are made on 
merit, against objective criteria and with due regard for the 
benefits of diversity on the Board.
The Board’s policy on diversity can be found on page 144.
*	 On 29 July 2024 the shares in issue were consolidated by a ratio of 1 new share for every 10 shares.

Directors’ and Officers’ Liability Insurance
Directors’ and Officers’ Liability Insurance is maintained 
through the Investment Adviser's own insurance policy. 
Save for the indemnity provisions in the Articles of 
Incorporation, there are no qualifying third-party indemnity 
provisions in force.
Auditor
RSM UK Audit LLP was appointed as auditor to the 
Company on listing on 6 November 2015. RSM UK Audit LLP 
has expressed its willingness to continue in office as Auditor 
to the Company and resolutions for its re-appointment and 
for the Audit Committee to determine its remuneration will 
be proposed at the forthcoming AGM. However, the Board 
will run a tender process during the financial year to 31 
December 2025 and may appoint a replacement auditor 
during the year. Further information about the Company’s 
external Auditor, including tenure, can be found in the Audit 
Committee’s Report on page 136.

this Directors’ Report confirm that, so far as they are each 
aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the 
Company’s Auditor is unaware; and each Director has taken 
all the steps that they ought to have taken as a Director to 
make themselves aware of any relevant audit information 
and to establish that the Company’s Auditor is aware of that 
information.
Listing Rules Disclosures
UK Listing Rule 6.6.1R requires the Company to include 
specified information in a single identifiable section of the 
Annual Report or a cross reference table indicating where 
the information is set out. The Directors confirm that there 
are no disclosures required in relation to UKLR 6.6.1R, 
except for the details of any arrangements under which a 
Director of the Company has waived any emoluments from 
the Company and the details of any contract of significance 
in which a Director is or was materially interested.
As set out on page 151, Mr Inglis does not receive any 
remuneration from the Company and Ms Burstow's

The Directors are responsible for preparing the Annual 
Report and the Group Financial Statements in accordance 
with applicable laws and regulations.
Guernsey company law requires the Directors to prepare 
financial statements for each financial year. The Directors 
are required under the UK Listing Rules of the Financial 
Conduct Authority to prepare the group financial 
statements in accordance with UK-adopted International 
Accounting Standards.
The financial statements of the Group are required by law 
to give a true and fair view of the state of the Group’s affairs 
at the end of the financial period and of the profit or loss of 
the Group for that period and are required by UK-adopted 
International Accounting Standards to present fairly the 
financial position and performance of the Group.
In preparing these financial statements, the Directors are 
required to:
• 	select suitable accounting policies and then apply them 
consistently;
•	 present a true and fair view of the financial position, 
financial performance and cash flows of the Company;
•	 present information, including accounting policies, in a 
manner that provides relevant, reliable, comparable and 
understandable information; 
•	 make judgements and accounting estimates that are 
reasonable and prudent;
•	 state whether they have been prepared in accordance 
with UK-adopted International Accounting Standards; and
•	 prepare the financial statements on the going concern 
basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Group 
will continue in business.
The Directors are responsible for keeping adequate 
accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain 
the Group’s transactions; disclose with reasonable accuracy 
at any time the financial position of the Group; enable 
them to ensure that the financial statements comply with 
the requirements of The Companies (Guernsey) Law 2008 
and, as regards the Group financial statements, the UK-
adopted International Accounting Standards. They are also 
responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Group and 
hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and 
detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The Directors are responsible for the maintenance and 
integrity of the corporate and financial information included 
on Regional REIT’s website.
Legislation in Guernsey governing the preparation and 
dissemination of financial statements may differ from 
legislation in other jurisdictions.
Each of the Directors, whose names and functions are 
listed on pages 106 to 109, confirms that to the best of 
each person’s knowledge:
• 	the financial statements, prepared in accordance with UK-
adopted International Accounting Standards, give a true 
and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position 
and profit of the Group and the undertakings included in 
the consolidation taken as a whole;
•	 the Strategic Report, including the Asset Manager's and 
Investment Adviser's Report, includes a fair review of 
the development and performance of the business and 
the position of the Group and the undertakings included 
in the consolidation taken as a whole, together with a 
description of the principal risks and uncertainties they 
face; and
•	 the Annual Report and financial statements for the 
year ended 31 December 2024, taken as a whole, are 
fair, balanced and understandable and provide the 
information necessary for shareholders to assess the 
Group’s position, performance, business model and 
strategy.

The UK Listing Rules and the Disclosure Guidance and 
Transparency Rules of the Financial Conduct Authority 
require listed companies to disclose how they have 
applied the principles and complied with the provisions 
of the corporate governance code to which the issuer is 
subject. 
Introduction from the Chairman
I am pleased to introduce this year’s Corporate Governance 
Statement. The Board is accountable to shareholders 
for the governance of the Company and is committed to 
maintaining the highest standard of corporate governance 
for the long-term sustainable success of the Company. 
Throughout the year, Regional REIT has complied with the 
Principles and Provisions of the AIC Code of Corporate 
Governance (AIC Code). By reporting against the AIC 
Code, the Company meets the obligations of the UK 
Corporate Governance Code (the UK Code), and reports 
against additional AIC Code Provisions that are of specific 
relevance to Regional REIT as an investment company. The 
Board considers that reporting against the Principles and 
Provisions of the AIC Code, which have been endorsed by 
the Financial Reporting Council, provides more relevant 
information to its shareholders. The AIC Code is available 
on the AIC website theaic.co.uk. 
The Board notes the publications of the 2024 UK Code and 
AIC Code, which will apply to financial years beginning on 
or after 1 January 2025 (except for AIC Code provision 34 
which takes effect for financial periods commencing on or 
after 1 January 2026). Although not directly relevant for the 
year under review, the Board is satisfied that it is able to 
comply with the new AIC Code and the 2024 UK Code.
The Board considers that reporting against the principles 
and provisions of the AIC Code, which has been endorsed 
by the FRC and the Guernsey Financial Services Commission 
(“GFSC”), provides relevant information to shareholders 
and that by reporting against the AIC Code the Company 
has met its obligations in relation to the UK Code and 
associated disclosure requirements under UK Listing Rule 
6.6.6.
The GFSC’s Finance Sector Code of Corporate Governance 
(the “GFSC Code”), published most recently in July 2023, 
applies to all companies that hold a licence from the 
GFSC under the regulatory laws or which are registered 
or authorised as collective investment schemes, which 
includes the Company. Companies which report against 
the AIC Code are deemed to meet the requirements of the 
GFSC Code. A copy of the GFSC Code can be obtained via 
the GFSC website at www.gfsc.gg.
The Principles of the AIC Code
The AIC Code is made up of 17 principles split into five 
sections covering:
•	 Board leadership and purpose
• 	Division of responsibilities
• 	Composition, succession and evaluation
•	 Audit, risk and internal control
• 	Remuneration
Similar to the UK Code, the AIC Code specifies a “comply or 
explain” basis and details of how the Company has applied 
the principles of the AIC Code are set out in this report.
Compliance with the AIC Code
Throughout the year ended 31 December 2024, the 
Company complied with the principles and provisions of 
the AIC Code which incorporates the UK Code. Accordingly, 
the following table reports on the Company’s compliance 
throughout the year with the recommendations of the AIC 
Code.
As a Guernsey incorporated entity, there are no 
statutory requirements for the Company to develop a 
remuneration policy. The steps taken by the MERC to 
ensure that Directors’ fees support the Company’s strategy 
and promote its long-term success are set out in the 
Remuneration Report on page 150.

BOARD LEADERSHIP AND PURPOSE
AIC Code Principle
Compliance statement
A.   A successful company is led by an effective board, 
whose role is to promote the long-term sustainable 
success of the Company, generating value for 
shareholders and contributing to wider society. The 
board should ensure that the necessary resources, 
policies and practices are in place for the company to 
meet its objectives and measure performance against 
them.
The Board considers the long-term sustainable success 
of the Company to be its main focus and all decisions are 
considered from this point of view.
The role of the Board and our governance framework can 
be found from page 130. The Company's Sustainability 
Report starts on page 76.
Details regarding the principal risks and uncertainties and 
the sustainability of the business model can be found in 
the Strategic Report on pages 60 to 72 and 28 to 33.
B.   The Board should establish the Company’s purpose, 
values and strategy, and satisfy itself that these and 
its culture are aligned. All Directors must act with 
integrity, lead by example and promote the desired 
culture.
The purpose of the Company, as set out on page 12, is to 
deliver long-term returns for shareholders with income 
generated from investment in UK commercial property 
outside of the M25 motorway. The strategy that the Board 
follows in order to execute this is outlined in the Strategic 
Report on pages 28 to 33.
As outlined on page 12, the Board has adopted some 
key values which are embedded into the culture of 
the business and are key to any decision made by the 
Company.
The Directors agree that establishing and maintaining 
an open and inclusive culture among the Board and in 
its interaction with the Asset Manager and Investment 
Adviser, shareholders and other stakeholders, will support 
the delivery of its purpose, values, and strategy.
The purpose and culture of the business are considered 
as part of the annual Board Performance Review to 
ensure that they remain a key focus on which all decisions 
are based.
BOARD LEADERSHIP AND PURPOSE
AIC Code Principle
Compliance statement
C.  Governance reporting should focus on board decisions 
and their outcomes in the context of the company’s 
strategy and objectives. Where the board reports 
on departures from the Code’s provisions, it should 
provide a clear explanation.
Regional REIT strives to ensure its reporting is 
transparent, comprehensible, and centered on the 
outcomes, consequences, and implications of the Board's 
decisions on the Company's stakeholders. The Company 
remains committed to continually adapting and enhancing 
its reporting practices. 
D.  In order for the company to meet its responsibilities 
to shareholders and stakeholders, the Board should 
ensure effective engagement with, and encourage 
participation from, these parties.
The Board understands its responsibilities to 
shareholders and stakeholders and considers the 
opinions of all such parties when making any decision. 
The Board considers that, other than shareholders, the 
Company’s other key stakeholders are the Company’s 
tenants, its service providers and its Asset Manager and 
Investment Adviser.
Further details can be found on pages 97 to 100. 
The Directors place considerable importance on 
shareholder engagement and on communications with 
them and all other stakeholders. Shareholders who wish 
to contact the Board may do so by emailing 
rgl-cosec@cm.mpms.mufg.com. 
E.  Principle E of the UK Code has been deleted with the

DIVISION OF RESPONSIBILITIES
F.   The Chair leads the Board and is responsible for its 
overall effectiveness in directing the Company. They 
should demonstrate objective judgement throughout 
their tenure and promote a culture of openness and 
debate. In addition, the chair facilitates constructive 
Board relations and the effective contribution of all 
non-executive Directors, and ensures that Directors 
receive accurate, timely and clear information.
There is a clear division of responsibilities between 
the Chairman, the Directors, the Asset Manager, the 
Investment Adviser and the Company’s other service 
providers.
The Board has approved a policy which sets out the 
responsibilities of the Chairman, Mr Hunter, and Senior 
Independent Director, Ms Larizadeh, a copy of which 
is available on the Company’s website. The Chairman 
is responsible for leading the Board and is responsible 
for its overall effectiveness in directing the affairs of 
the Company. The Chairman ensures that all Directors 
receive accurate, timely and clear information and helps 
promote a culture of openness and debate in Board 
meetings by encouraging and facilitating the effective 
contribution of other Directors towards a consensus 
view. The Chairman also takes a leading role in ensuring 
effective communications with shareholders and other 
stakeholders.
The Board has agreed a schedule of matters specifically 
reserved for decision by the Board. This includes 
establishing, following consultation with the Asset 
Manager and the Investment Adviser, the Company’s 
investment policy, long-term objectives, commercial 
strategy, the gearing policy and the setting of any limits 
and any treasury policies.
Prior to each Board and Audit Committee meeting, 
Directors are provided with a comprehensive set of 
papers giving detailed information on the Company’s 
portfolio including property acquisitions/disposals 
and financial position. All Directors have timely access 
to all relevant management financial and regulatory 
information.
DIVISION OF RESPONSIBILITIES
G.   The Board should consist of an appropriate 
combination of Directors (and, in particular, 
independent non-executive Directors) such that no 
one individual or small group of individuals dominates 
the Board’s decision making.
All Directors are non-executive and are independent of 
the Asset Manager and Investment Adviser and the other 
service providers (except for Mr Inglis who is the Head of 
ESR Europe LSPIM Ltd, the Company’s Asset Manager).
A majority of the Board will at all times be independent of 
the Asset Manager and Investment Adviser. 
Ms Burstow is an employee of Bridgmere Investments and 
is therefore not considered Independent.
The Chairman, Mr Hunter, was independent of the 
Asset Manager and Investment Adviser at the time of 
his appointment. The Board considers that he remains 
independent.
None of the Directors are a director of another 
investment company managed by the Company’s Asset 
Manager or Investment Adviser nor has any Board 
member been an employee of the Company or currently 
has any connection to any of its service providers (except 
for Mr Inglis).
The Board Performance Review concluded that each 
Director provides a valuable contribution to Board 
meeting discussions and exercises appropriate levels of 
challenge and debate.
H.  Non-executive Directors should have sufficient time to 
meet their Board responsibilities. They should provide 
constructive challenge, strategic guidance, offer 
specialist advice and hold third-party service providers 
to account.
As part of the Board Perfomance Review, the 
contributions of each Director, as well as the time 
commitments made by each Board member, are 
considered, and reviewed by the Nomination Committee. 
More information can be found on page 132.
 The MERC reviews the performance and cost of the 
Company’s service providers on an annual basis and more 
information on its work can be found on page 146.
I.    The Board, supported by the Company Secretary, 
should ensure that it has the policies, processes, 
information, time and resources it needs in order to 
function effectively and efficiently.
The Directors have access to the advice and services of 
the Company Secretary who is responsible to the Board 
for ensuring that Board procedures are in place and 
followed and that applicable rules and regulations are 
complied with. The Company Secretary is also responsible 
for ensuring good information flows between all parties.

COMPOSITION, SUCCESSION AND EVALUATION
J.    Appointments to the Board should be subject to a 
formal, rigorous and transparent procedure, and an 
effective succession plan should be maintained. Both 
appointments and succession plans should be based 
on merit and objective criteria. They should promote 
diversity, inclusion and equal opportunity.
The Nomination Committee, comprising independent 
non-executive Directors, is responsible for identifying and 
recommending to the Board the appointment of new 
Directors. The Company's Diversity and Inclusion Policy sets 
out the principles and commitments the Board follows when 
making new appointments, including how the Directors 
ensure that any new appointment will add to the diversity of 
experience, skill, gender, social and/or ethnic backgrounds. 
See the Nomination Committee Report on page 142.
K.   The Board and its Committees should have a 
combination of skills, experience and knowledge. 
Consideration should be given to the length of service 
of the Board as a whole and membership regularly 
refreshed.
 
Directors’ biographical details are set out on pages 106 
to 109 of this report. These demonstrate the wide range 
of skills and experience that the Directors bring to the 
Board including the property sector, investment trusts, and 
financial and public company management.
The Board has a tenure policy, set out on page 132, to 
ensure that the Board continues to have the right balance of 
skills and experience.
Each Director was appointed with a view to establishing 
a Board with a good combination of skills, experience 
and knowledge. This is reviewed as part of the annual 
Board Perfomance Review process. When considering 
new appointments, the Board, through the Nomination 
Committee will review the skills of the Directors and seek 
to add persons with complementary skills or who possess 
skills and experience which fill any gaps in the Board’s 
knowledge or experience and who can devote sufficient 
time to the Company to carry out their duties effectively. 
Where appropriate, the need for diversity on the Board will 
be taken into account when considering new appointments. 
The Company’s diversity policy can be found on page 144. 
The policy adheres to the UK Listing Rules on diversity.
COMPOSITION, SUCCESSION AND EVALUATION
L.   Annual evaluation of the Board should consider 
its performance, composition, diversity and how 
effectively members work together to achieve 
objectives. Individual evaluation should demonstrate 
whether each Director continues to contribute 
effectively.
The Directors consider the performance review of the Board, 
its Committees and themselves to be an important aspect 
of corporate governance, and evaluations are undertaken 
annually. The results of the performance review, which were 
discussed by the Nomination Committee are set out on page 
132.
M.  The Board should establish formal and transparent 
policies and procedures to ensure the independence 
and effectiveness of external audit functions and 
satisfy itself on the integrity of financial and narrative 
statements.
The Audit Committee has put in a place a non-audit services 
policy, which ensures that any work outside the scope of the 
standard audit work requires prior approval by the Audit 
Committee. This enables the Committee to ensure that the 
external auditors remain fully independent.
In addition, the Audit Committee carries out a review of the 
performance of the external auditor on an annual basis. 
Feedback from other third parties, including the Asset 
Manager and Investment Adviser, is included as part of 
this assessment to ensure the Audit Committee takes into 
account the views of different parties who have a close 
working relationship with the external auditor.

AUDIT, RISK AND INTERNAL CONTROL
N.  See the Audit Committee Report on page 136. 
The Board should present a fair, balanced and 
understandable assessment of the Company’s position 
and prospects.
The Audit Committee has considered the Audited Annual 
Report and Financial Statements as a whole and agreed that 
it presents a fair, balanced, and understandable assessment 
of the Company’s position and prospects.
O.  The Board should establish and maintain an effective 
risk management and internal control framework, and 
determine the nature and extent of the principal risks 
the Company is willing to take to achieve its long-term 
strategic objectives.
Risks faced by the Company are considered, monitored and 
assessed on a regular basis by the Audit Committee. Details 
in respect of the Company’s principal risks and uncertainties 
and the appropriate measures taken to mitigate each risk 
can be found on pages 60 to 72.
Given the nature of the business, the Company is reliant 
on its service providers and their internal controls. The 
Audit Committee reviews reports from the principal service 
providers on compliance and the internal and financial 
control systems in operation and relevant independent 
audit reports thereon. The Chairman of the Audit Committee 
meets, at least annually, with representatives of each of 
the Asset Manager and Investment Adviser independently, 
to review and discuss the internal controls within their 
businesses.
REMUNERATION
P.   Remuneration policies and practices should be 
designed to support strategy and promote long-term 
sustainable success.
The Directors are all non-executive and only receive 
Directors’ fees. No element of their remuneration is related 
to performance, and Directors are not eligible for bonuses, 
share options or long-term performance incentives. See the 
Remuneration Report on page 150.
Q.  A formal and transparent procedure for developing 
policy on remuneration should be established. No 
Director should be involved in deciding their own 
remuneration outcome.
Directors' remuneration is reviewed annually by the 
MERC and within the limits the Company's Articles of 
Incorporation. The Board as a whole is responsible for 
deciding the level of fees paid to the non-executive directors 
and the Chairman, and no Director is involved in deciding 
their own remuneration. See the Remuneration Report on 
page 150.
R.  Directors should exercise independent judgement 
and discretion when authorising remuneration 
outcomes, taking account of Company and individual 
performance, and wider circumstances.
There are no performance related elements of the Directors' 
remuneration, therefore, there is very little scope for the 
exercise of discretion. Any fee increases, if one is proposed, 
are carefully considered and the Board takes into account 
the time required for it to fulfil its duties, peers and 
benchmarking data, overall Company performance and 
wider economic context. See the Remuneration Report on 
page 150.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT CONTINUED
The Board of Directors
At the start of the year under review, the Board consisted 
of five non-executive directors (three male and two female). 
Following the retirement of Mr Taylor after the conclusion 
of his nine-year tenure, and the appointment of Ms Burstow 
in October 2024, the Board consisted of five non-executive 
directors (two male and three female). 
Since the end of the year under review, Mr Hunter was 
appointed as Non-Executive Director and Chairman 
designate in January 2025 and replaced Mr McGrath as 
Chairman in March 2025 after the completion of their 
handover period. Mr McGrath retired in March 2025 
having reached the end of his nine-year tenure. The Board 
currently consists of five non-executive directors (two male 
and three female). Brief biographical details of all Directors, 
including details of their other directorships and significant 
commitments, can be found pages 106 to 109.
A review of Board composition and balance is included as 
part of the annual performance review of the Board, details 
of which may be found on page 132.
The Company’s culture is set out on page 103. The values 
of the Company are set out on page 12. These values are 
considered in Board decision making. The purpose of the 
Company is the investment objective, which can be found 
on page 29. The strategy that the Board follows to meet this 
objective is outlined in the Strategic Report on page 28. The 
business model that the Company operates is set out from 
page 28.
The Board ensures that the necessary resources are in 
place for the Company to meet its objectives. It does this 
predominately through its engagement with third-party 
service providers. The Board regularly reviews financial 
forecasts and KPIs, as well as debt financing and gearing. 
Further details can be found on pages 54 to 59 of the 
Strategic Report.
The Board is responsible for all matters of direction and 
control of the Company and the Group, including its 
investment policy and strategy, and no one individual 
has unfettered powers of decision making. As part of 
this, the opportunities and risks faced by the business 
are considered, monitored and assessed on a regular 
basis, both in terms of actual and emerging risks that the 
business may face. Emerging risks are identified by the 
Board through a variety of means including advice from the 
Company’s Asset Manager and Investment Adviser, the AIC 
and Directors’ industry knowledge and market changes and 
events.
More detail regarding the principal risks and uncertainties, 
emerging risks and the sustainability of the business can be 
found in the Strategic Report on pages 60 to 72.
The rules concerning the appointment and replacement 
of Directors are set out in the Company’s Articles of 
Incorporation. There are no agreements between the 
Company and its Directors concerning any compensation 
for their loss of office.
Board Operation
There is a clear division of responsibilities between the 
Board, the Asset Manager and Investment Adviser. The 
Directors have agreed a formal schedule of matters 
specifically reserved for their approval. The schedule of 
matters reserved to the Board includes, but is not limited to 
the following:
• 	approval of asset acquisitions and disposals over £15 
million;
• 	approval of capital expenditure;
• 	approval of the Company’s borrowings;
• 	approval of the Company’s investment policy, long-term 
objectives and commercial strategy;
• approval of the gearing policy of the Company;
• 	approval of annual and half-yearly reports and financial 
statements and accounting policies, prospectuses, 
circulars and other shareholder communications;
• 	raising new capital;
• 	approval of dividends;
• 	Board appointments and removals; and
• 	appointment and removal of the Asset Manager, 
Investment Adviser, Auditor and the Company’s other 
service providers, including the Company Secretary.
To assist the Board, arrangements have been put in place 
to delegate authority for the performance of day-to-
day operations of the Company to the Asset Manager 
and Investment Adviser and other third-party service 
providers. The Board has appointed the Asset Manager 
and Investment Adviser to manage the Company’s portfolio 
within guidelines set by the Board, detailed in the respective 
management agreements with the Company. Both the 
Asset Manager and Investment Adviser are in frequent 
contact with the Board and supply the Directors with 
regular updates on the Company’s activities and a detailed 
report at each Board meeting.
The Board, at its regular meetings, undertakes reviews 
of key investment and financial data, analyses of asset 
allocation, peer group information, the economy generally, 
transactions and performance comparisons, Share price 
(whether at a discount or premium to NAV) and NAV 
performance. It receives an update from the Asset Manager 
on property market conditions and trends, movements 
compared to previous quarters, yields on properties within 
the portfolio, lease lengths and letting activity, including 
estimated rental values and vacant properties. The Board 
also receives an update from the Investment Adviser on 
investor relations. Discussions also take place on strategic 
proposals, developments and legal and governance 
matters.
Representatives of each of the Asset Manager and 
Investment Adviser regularly attend Board meetings, which 
facilitates communication and supplements the regular 
reporting to the Directors.
Board Meeting Attendance
The Directors meet at regular Board meetings, held at least 
four times a year, with additional meetings arranged as 
necessary. During the year under review, the number of 
scheduled Board meetings attended by each Director was 
as follows:
Additional Board meetings were also held as required 
during the year, including to deal with corporate 
transactions such as the equity raise, repayment of the 
Retail Bond, property disposals and acquisitions and 
dividends. 
The Board follows a formal agenda, which is approved 
by the Chairman and circulated by the Company 
Secretary in advance of the meeting to all the Directors 
and other attendees. A typical agenda includes a review 
of performance with a detailed update from the Asset 
Manager and Investment Adviser on the property portfolio, 
investment opportunities and disposals, the Company’s 
financial performance, updates on investor relations and 
specific regulatory or governance matters. Representatives 
of the Company’s Advisers are invited to attend Board 
meetings from time to time, particularly the Company’s 
Corporate Brokers, Financial Adviser and Legal Adviser.
The Board is responsible for the strategy of the Company 
and monitors performance against its agreed strategy on 
an ongoing basis. The Board is also responsible for setting 
the overall strategic objectives of the Company and meets 
at least once a year to focus exclusively on strategy.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT CONTINUED
Annual Board Performance Review
The Directors consider the performance review of the 
Board, its Committees and themselves to be an important 
aspect of corporate governance, and reviews are 
undertaken annually. The review undertaken for the 2024 
financial year was facilitated internally by the Company 
Secretary. The Board agreed that the use of an externally 
facilitated service provider was not necessary this year, 
however, this will be kept under review. 
The questionnaires were designed to evaluate Directors' 
feedback on Board composition, culture and effectiveness, 
the Board's performance concerning stakeholder relations 
and shareholder value, governance, the efficiency of Board 
and Committee meetings, and to determine whether the 
operation of such meetings was appropriate. Additionally, 
the questionnaires aimed to gather any further information 
necessary to enhance Board discussions. The review also 
included an assessment of the Directors' independence and 
their ability to dedicate sufficient time to the Company's 
activities. 
Following conclusion of the review, the Company Secretary 
provided a report on the outcome, a summary of strengths 
and areas for development and feedback on how the Board 
could improve in each area of assessment. The report 
was reviewed by the Nomination Committee as part of its 
assessment of Board performance. 
The Results
The results of the review process indicated that the Board 
and its Committees continue to work well and there are no 
significant concerns among the Directors about Board and 
Committee effectiveness. It identified areas for potential 
improvement in the Board’s structure and experience, 
continued focus on strategy, debt management and risk 
management, and relationships with, and understanding of, 
all Regional REIT stakeholders. 
The Board reviewed the results and agreed on these key 
focus areas for this year:
•	 Raise Regional REIT’s profile and enhance interest in the 
Company
•	 Develop a more granular understanding of shareholder 
and stakeholder expectations and needs, particularly 
retail investors
•	 The mid to long-term investment strategy for Regional 
REIT in light of market changes and challenges
•	 Continue succession plans to increase the number 
of independent directors and strengthen the Board’s 
experience
The resulting actions agreed by the Directors will be 
discussed in more detail and monitored during the 2025 
financial year and the Board will report on the outcomes in 
our next Annual Report.
Following the review, the Board is confident that all current 
Directors contribute effectively and possess the necessary 
skills and experience for the leadership and direction of 
the Company. The Board also affirms that all Directors, 
except for Mr Inglis and Ms Burstow, are independent. 
Furthermore, the Board confirms that every Director 
can dedicate sufficient time to the Company's activities, 
ensuring effective governance and direction.
Actions taken following the previous Board 
performance review
During the year, the Board took several actions based on 
the review undertaken in the previous year. These included 
the repayment of the £50 million Retail Bond and the 
subsequent reduction in the Company’s leverage position, 
funding capital expenditure to continue to improve the 
quality of our portfolio and improve EPC ratings, and 
successfully carrying out the ongoing succession plans put 
in place by the Board to refresh its composition.
Tenure, Election and Re-election of Directors
Each Director has a letter of appointment setting out their 
terms of appointment. These letters detail an initial three-
year appointment, but each Director may be invited by the 
Board to serve for an additional period of three years, if 
both the individual Director and the Board believe this is in 
the interest of the Company, having taken into account the 
independence of the Director.
In accordance with the Company’s Articles of Incorporation 
and the AIC Code, Directors are subject to election by 
shareholders at the first AGM after their appointment. 
Thereafter, each Director’s appointment is subject to 
an annual performance review and all Directors submit 
themselves for annual re-election by shareholders at the 
AGM. Ms Burstow and Mr Hunter, having been appointed 
Directors since the last AGM will therefore stand for election 
at the Company’s AGM in 2025 and all other Directors will 
stand for re-election at that AGM. 
The Board has adopted a formal tenure policy for 
Directors based on a continual review of performance. It 
is anticipated that any of the Directors would not normally 
serve more than nine years in order to provide regular 
refreshment of the Board and facilitate diversity of the 
Board. In exceptional circumstances, which would be fully 
explained to shareholders at the time, an extension might 
be appropriate.
Similarly, it is not anticipated that the Chairman would 
serve more than nine years, however, in exceptional 
circumstances, which would be fully explained at the time, a 
short extension might be appropriate. As with all Directors, 
the continuing appointment of the Chairman is subject to 
ongoing review of performance, including a satisfactory 
annual evaluation, annual re-election by shareholders and 
may be further subject to the particular circumstances of 
the Company at the time they intend to retire from the 
Board.
The Nomination Committee leads the process of the 
appointment of any new Director to the Board as and 
when vacancies arise and as part of the Directors’ ongoing 
succession plans. As part of this process, an external 
executive search agency will generally be used.
Further information on succession planning can be found in 
the Nomination Committee Report on page 142. 
Induction and Training
On appointment, the Asset Manager, Investment Adviser 
and Company Secretary provide new Directors with 
induction training as appropriate. The training includes the 
Company’s investment strategy, policies, and practices. 
The Directors are also given regular briefings on changes 
in law, regulatory requirements and developments in 
corporate governance that impact the Company and the 
Directors. It is the Chairman’s responsibility to ensure that 
the Directors have sufficient knowledge to fulfil their role 
and Directors are encouraged to attend industry and other 
seminars covering issues and developments relevant to 
investment trust companies. Regular reviews of Directors’ 
training needs are carried out by the Chairman by means 
of the performance evaluation process. The Directors have 
access to the advice and services of the Company Secretary 
through its appointed representative, who is responsible 
for company secretarial functions and for assisting the 
Company and the Directors with compliance with its 
continuing obligations as a company listed on the Main 
Market and the UKLA Official List. The Company Secretary 
is also responsible for ensuring good information flows 
between all parties. When deemed necessary, the Directors 
can seek independent professional advice.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT CONTINUED
Conflicts of Interest
It is the responsibility of each individual Director to avoid a 
conflict of interest. The Company’s Articles of Incorporation 
permit a Director to act in a situation where a Director has 
disclosed the nature and extent of an interest that conflicts, 
or may possibly conflict, with the interests of the Group in 
accordance with the Law.
The Board has established a formal process whereby actual 
and potential conflicts of interests are considered by the 
Directors who have no interest in the matter, who then 
decide whether to authorise the conflict and any conditions 
to be attached to such authorisations.
The Directors can impose limits or conditions when giving 
authorisation, if they think this is appropriate in the 
circumstances. A register of potential conflicts is maintained 
by the Company Secretary and is reviewed at each Board 
meeting to ensure that any authorised conflicts remain 
appropriate. Directors are required to confirm at these 
meetings whether there has been any change to their 
position.
Board Committees
The Board has three Committees and has delegated certain 
responsibilities to the Audit Committee, the Management 
Engagement and Remuneration Committee and the 
Nomination Committee. The Board has established formal 
terms of reference for each of the Committees, which are 
available on the Company’s website.
Audit Committee
The Audit Committee comprises the Independent Directors 
and is chaired by Ms Daley. It will meet at least three times 
a year, or more often if required. The Chairman of the 
Company is a member of the Audit Committee but does not 
act as Committee Chair.
All members of the Audit Committee are considered to have 
relevant experience in the industry in which the Company 
operates. The Board is also satisfied that at least one 
member of the Audit Committee has recent and relevant 
financial experience. The Chair is a chartered accountant 
with experience in corporate finance.
Only members of the Committee have the right to attend 
and vote at Committee meetings. However, the Audit 
Committee may invite anyone to attend Committee 
meetings at its discretion and representatives of the 
external Auditor are invited to attend as necessary. The 
Audit Committee Report is set out on page 136.
Management Engagement and Remuneration 
Committee (“MERC”)
The MERC comprises the Independent Directors and is 
chaired by Ms Larizadeh. It meets at least once a year, or 
more often if required. The Chairman of the Company is a 
member of the MERC.
Only members of the Committee have the right to attend 
and vote at Committee meetings. However, the Committee 
may invite anyone to attend at its discretion. The MERC 
Report is set out on page 146.
Nomination Committee
The Nomination Committee comprises the Independent 
Directors and is also chaired by Ms Larizadeh. The 
Nomination Committee meets at least once a year, or 
more often if required. The Chairman of the Company is a 
member of the Nomination Committee.
Only members of the Committee have the right to attend 
and vote at Committee meetings. However, the Committee 
may invite anyone to attend at its discretion. The 
Nomination Committee Report is set out on page 142.
Management of Risk and Internal Controls
The Board has overall responsibility for the Company’s 
systems of internal controls and for reviewing their 
effectiveness, ensuring that risk management and control 
processes are embedded in day-to-day operations.
The Board has established an ongoing process for 
identifying, evaluating, and managing significant risks with 
the aim of helping to safeguard the Company’s assets. 
The Board exercises its oversight of financial, reporting, 
compliance, operational and overall risks by relying on 
regular reporting on performance and other management 
information from the Asset Manager and Investment Adviser. 
These procedures are designed to manage rather than 
eliminate risk. The Board manages risks as set out below:
•  	the Board, through the Audit Committee, will conduct a 
risk and control assessment at least on an annual basis, 
including a review of the internal controls procedures of 
the Company’s principal third-party service providers;
•	 the responsibilities for the investment management, asset 
management, accountancy and depositary functions are 
segregated, and the procedures of the third-party service 
providers are designed to safeguard the Company’s assets;
• 	the Board is kept regularly updated by each of the Asset 
Manager and Investment Adviser outside of scheduled 
Board meetings and each provides reports at each meeting 
of the Board; and
• 	under the terms of the Asset Management Agreement 
between the Company and the Asset Manager, Board 
approval is required for purchases of property exceeding 
£15 million in value and for disposals exceeding £15 million 
in value.
Details of the Company’s internal control and risk 
management systems in relation to the financial 
consolidation reporting process can be found on page 140.
Regular risk assessments and reviews of internal controls 
are undertaken in the context of the Company’s overall 
investment objective by the Board, through the Audit 
Committee.
A risk matrix has been produced against which the risks 
identified and the controls in place to mitigate those risks 
are monitored. The risks are assessed on the basis of the 
likelihood of them happening, the impact on the business if 
they were to occur and the effectiveness of the controls in 
place to mitigate them. This risk register is reviewed by the 
Audit Committee every six months. The principal risks that 
have been identified by the Board are set out on pages 60 
to 72.
The Board reviews financial information produced by the 
Investment Adviser and the Sub-Administrator on a regular 
basis.
Most functions for the day-to-day management of the 
Company are sub-contracted, and the Directors therefore 
obtain regular assurances and information from principal 
third-party suppliers regarding the internal systems and 
controls operated in their organisations. In addition, each 
of the Company’s material third parties, excluding the Asset 
Manager and Investment Adviser, provides a copy of its 
report on internal controls each year, which is reviewed by 
the Audit Committee.
The Audit Committee Chair, on behalf of the Audit 
Committee, meets with representatives of the Asset 
Manager and Investment Adviser to discuss and review 
their internal controls. The Depositary provides depositary 
services under the AIFMD to the Company and reports on 
an annual basis to the Company, in addition to quarterly 
reports, on its specific monitoring of cash transactions and 
asset verification.
Taking into account the principal and emerging risks 
provided on pages 60 to 72 and the ongoing work of the 
Audit Committee in monitoring the risk management and 
internal control systems on behalf of Board, the Directors:
• are satisfied that they have carried out a robust assessment 
of the emerging and principal risks facing the Group; and
• have reviewed the effectiveness of the risk management 
and internal controls systems and no significant failings 
were identified.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT
I am pleased to present the Audit Committee Report 
for the year ended 31 December 2024, which 
provides an overview of our activities and our role 
in ensuring the integrity of the Group’s published 
financial information and the effectiveness of its risk 
management, controls and related processes.
The Audit Committee is a Board Committee with 
governance responsibilities that include the oversight 
of financial disclosures and corporate reporting, and 
it is therefore important that the Committee operates 
effectively and efficiently. The Committee meets at least 
three times annually.
Audit Committee Composition
During the year under review, the membership of the Audit 
Committee comprised the Independent Directors. None of the 
members of the Committee are connected to either the Asset 
Manager, the Investment Adviser, or the Auditor. For the 
year under review, the Committee considered it beneficial 
to have the Chairman of the Company, Mr McGrath, as 
a member of the Committee as he was independent on 
appointment and provided significant input into Audit 
Committee meetings. 
With Mr McGrath having left the Company on 18 March 
2025 following the end of his nine-year tenure, his 
successor, David Hunter joined the Audit Committee on 2 
January 2025, being the same date as his appointment to 
the Board. Mr Hunter was independent on his appointment 
to the Board and his experience and knowledge will provide 
a significant contribution to Committee deliberations. The 
Board therefore believe it is appropriate for him to be a 
member of the Committee, despite his role as Chairman 
of the Board. Mr Daniel Taylor was a member of the 
Committee until his resignation on 15 October 2024.  
I am a qualified accountant, a Fellow of the Institute of 
Chartered Accountants in England and Wales. The Board 
and I consider that the Committee members, individually 
and collectively, are independent and appropriately 
experienced and that I have an appropriate level of recent 
and relevant financial experience to discharge my duties as 
Audit Committee Chair.
Role of the Audit Committee
The principal duties of the Audit Committee, as outlined 
in its terms of reference and which are available on the 
Company’s website, are:
Financial Reporting

Half-Yearly Financial Statements and preliminary results 
announcements of the Company;
• 	to review and report to the Board on any significant 
financial reporting issues and judgements, having regard 
to any matters communicated to it by the Auditor; and
• 	to review the contents of the Annual Report and audited

taken as a whole, the report is fair, balanced and 
understandable and provides shareholders with sufficient 
information to assess the Company’s position and 
performance, business model and strategy.
Risk Management and Control
• 	to keep under review the adequacy of the Company’s 
Asset and Investment Adviser and third-party service 
providers’ internal controls and risk management 
systems;

re-appointment, terms of engagement, objectivity 
and independence and performance, and make 
recommendations to the Board as appropriate;
• to review the policy on the engagement of the Auditor 
to supply non-audit services and the fees paid for such 
services;
• to safeguard the Auditor’s independence and objectivity, 
providing a forum through which the Auditor may report 
to the Board.
External Property Valuation
• 	to review the quality and appropriateness of the half-year

portfolio.
Other
• 	to review the Committee’s terms of reference and

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT CONTINUED
Meetings
The Audit Committee met on three occasions during the year 
under review (and once post the year end to consider the 
Auditors findings report and the Financial Statements). 
Attendance at the scheduled meetings during the year was 
as follows:

At these meetings, the Audit Committee has:
• 	reviewed the internal controls and risk management 
systems of the Company and its key third-party service 
providers;
• 	reviewed financial results;

Financial Position and Prospects Procedures; reviewed the 
Group’s banking arrangements;

years which formed the basis for the viability statement 
(see page 73);
• 	agreed the audit plan with the Auditor, including the 
principal areas of focus, and agreed the audit fee;

The Administrator and the Investment Adviser update 
the Audit Committee on changes to accounting policies, 
legislation and best practice and areas of significant 
judgement undertaken by the Investment Adviser.
Significant Matters Considered by the Audit 
Committee
The Committee considered the following key matters in 
relation to the Company during the period:
Property Portfolio Valuation
The Committee recognises that the valuation of the 
properties within the Company’s portfolio is central to the 
Company’s business and that errors could have a material 
impact on the Company’s net asset value. Properties were 
independently valued by specialist third-party service 
provider Colliers at the year end. Furthermore, as part 
of the annual independent audit process, the Company’s 
Auditor, RSM UK Audit LLP, carries out an assessment of 
the property portfolio valuation provided by Colliers which 
includes using their own expert, providing the Committee 
further comfort that property valuations are materially 
accurate. 
The valuations are prepared in accordance with the 
appropriate sections of the RICS Professional Standards, 
RICS Global Valuation Practice Statements, RICS Global 
Valuation Practice Guidance-Applications and United 
Kingdom Valuation Standards contained within the RICS 
Valuation-Professional Standards 2014. The valuations are 
compliant with International Valuation Standards.
The Asset Manager has held open discussions with the 
valuers throughout the year on the valuation process to 
discuss and challenge various elements of the property 
valuations. The Auditor also meets with the independent 
property valuer as part of the audit process to discuss and 
challenge their approach and findings. The Auditor has 
also engaged its own independent expert to consider the 
valuation.
The Committee reviewed the Colliers half-year valuation 
as at 30 June 2024 and, since the year end, the Committee 
has considered the year-end valuation report. It discussed 
the year-end report with representatives of Colliers and 
the Asset Manager. The Committee was satisfied with 
the valuation report. The performance of the Company’s 
valuers is assessed on an annual basis by the MERC, as set 
out in their report on page 146.
Capital Raising and Repayment of £50m Retail Bond
The Committee routinely evaluates the Company's 
leverage position and regularly reviews funding options 
with a focus on reducing the weighted average cost 
of capital and extending the weighted average debt 
maturity. During the year under review, the Committee 
closely monitored and discussed progress made on 
the Company's debt refinancing options to repay the 
£50 million retail bond, which led to the successful 
completion of the £110.5 million capital raise in July 
2024. This significantly bolstered the Company’s capital 
strength compared to the previous financial year and 
substantially mitigated associated risks, notably through 
the subsequent repayment of the £50 million Retail Bond.
Going Concern and Long-Term Viability of the 
Company
The Directors closely monitor the ability of the Group 
to continue in operational existence by monitoring the 
Group’s cash resources, rental income, acquisition, 
and disposals of investment properties, elective and 
committed capital expenditure, dividend distributions and 
the borrowing facilities and the respective maturities.
The Board and Audit Committee have performed an 
assessment of whether the Group would be able to 
continue as a going concern for at least twelve months 
from the date of the annual consolidated financial 
statement. The Directors considered the financial position, 
expected future performance of the operations, the debt 
facilities and debt service requirements, the working 
capital and capital expenditure commitments and 
forecasts.
The Audit Committee also considered the longer-term 
viability statement within the Annual Report for the 
year ended 31 December 2024, covering a three-year 
period, and the underlying factors and assumptions 
which contributed to the Committee deciding that three 
years was an appropriate length of time to consider the 
Company’s long-term viability. 
Further information can be found on the going concern 
and viability statement on page 73.
External Auditor
The Audit Committee has primary responsibility for 
overseeing the relationship with the external Auditor, RSM 
UK Audit LLP. This includes assessing their performance, 
effectiveness, and independence annually and 
recommending to the Board their reappointment or removal.
The Company complied throughout the year ended 31 
December 2024 with the provisions of the Statutory Audit 
Services Order 2014, issued by the Competition and Markets 
Authority (“CMA Order”). 
RSM UK Audit LLP has been Auditor to the Company since 
listing on 6 November 2015. In accordance with professional 
guidelines on rotation of audit partners, Alan Aitchison 
has served as the lead audit partner since starting with 
the interim results for the period ended 30 June 2020. In 
accordance with the requirements of the CMA order, the 
Company will conduct a competitive audit tender no later 
than in respect of financial year ending 31 December 2025. 
There are no contractual obligations that would restrict 
the Audit Committee from selecting an alternative external 
Auditor.
Each year, the Audit Committee monitors and reviews the 
effectiveness of the external audit process, and undertakes 
a detailed review of the audit plan and the audit results 
report and makes recommendations to the Board on the 
re-appointment, remuneration and terms of engagement of 
the Auditor.
Working with the Auditor
Each year, the Audit Committee meets with the lead audit 
partner before the annual results are prepared to discuss 
the scope of the audit plan, with a particular focus on risk 
and materiality. The external Auditor further meets with 
the Audit Committee post the year end audit work being 
completed to discuss the findings of the external audit and 
to consider and evaluate any findings. To facilitate further 
open dialogue and assurance, the Audit Committee holds 
a private session with the Auditor without members of the 
Asset Manager and Investment Adviser being present.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT CONTINUED
Financial Reporting
It is a principal responsibility of the Audit Committee to 
review and report to the Board on the Group’s financial 
statements, including the Preliminary Statement, the Annual 
Report and Half-Year Report. When conducting its reviews, 
the Committee considers the overall requirement that the 
financial statements present a “true and fair view” of the 
Company’s accounting policies and significant financial 
judgements. We are pleased to advise the Board that the 
2024 Annual Report and the audited Financial Statements 
taken as a whole are fair, balanced and understandable and 
provide the necessary information for our shareholders to 
assess the Company’s position and performance, business 
model and strategy.
Internal Controls and Risk Management 
Systems
On an annual basis, the Audit Committee reviews the internal 
controls and risk management systems of the Company’s 
key third-party service providers. No significant matters 
of concern were raised. The Audit Committee Chair also 
meets annually with representatives of each of the Asset 
Manager and Investment Adviser to discuss and review their 
internal controls and compliance. There were no significant 
matters of concern identified from these meetings. The Audit 
Committee has reviewed and updated, where appropriate, 
the risk matrix. This is done on a six-monthly basis. The 
Company’s principal risks and uncertainties are set out on 
pages 60 to 72. 
Governance
During the year under review, and in addition to work 
described above, the Committee also devoted time to 
governance, monitoring the latest developments and 
reviewing whether any changes to its processes and 
procedures will be necessary for the Company to comply 
with the upcoming changes to reporting on the review 
and effectiveness of internal controls. From 1 January 
2026, Provision 34 of the AIC Corporate Governance Code 
will require that, in addition to monitoring and reviewing 
the Company’s risk management and internal controls 
framework, the Board will also need to report on, in more 
detail, how that is carried out; the Directors will also need 
to make a declaration to shareholders on the effectiveness 
of the material controls, and describe any that have not 
operated effectively at the end of our financial year. The 
Committee is considering these coming changes and will 
report in more detail on any changes we might introduce to 
prepare for these enhancements to current reporting.
Internal Audit Function
The Company does not have an internal audit function as, 
substantially, all its day-to-day operations are delegated to 
third parties, all of whom have their own internal control 
procedures. The Audit Committee discussed whether it 
would be appropriate to establish an internal audit function 
and agreed that the existing system of monitoring and 
reporting by third parties remains appropriate and sufficient.
Annual Review of the External Auditor
The Audit Committee has undertaken a review of the 
effectiveness of the external audit process and considered 
the reappointment of the Auditor. The review comprised, 
amongst other factors, the quality of the staff, including 
the performance of the lead audit partner, the competence 
and expertise of the audit team, the resources, and 
communication between the audit team and the Asset 
Manager and Investment Adviser.
Any concerns with the effectiveness of the external audit 
process would be reported to the Board. No concerns were 
raised in respect of the year ended 31 December 2024 
and the Audit Committee concluded that the quality of the 
external Auditor’s work, and the knowledge and competence 
of the audit team, had been maintained at an appropriate 
standard during the year.
Audit Fees and Non-Audit Services
An audit fee of £110,000 was agreed in respect of the audit of 
the Company for the year ended 31 December 2024 (2023: 
£105,000). The Group’s audit fees for the year ended 31 
December 2024 totalled £256,650 (2023: £239,000).
To help safeguard the external Auditor’s independence 
and objectivity, the Audit Committee has a policy on the 
engagement of the Auditor to supply non-audit services, 
considering the recommendations of the Accounting 
Practices Board. The scope and nature of all non-audit work 
to be carried out by the Auditor must be approved by the 
Audit Committee in advance and such approval will not be 
granted in circumstances where it is considered that the 
nature or cost of the work could interfere with the external 
Auditor’s independence.
The Auditor provided non-audit services in respect of agreed-
upon procedures on the Group’s interim financial statements 
for the period ended 30 June 2024. The fee charged for this 
service was £32,500 (2023: £31,000). The Audit Committee 
considered this service to be closely aligned to the role as 
Auditor. Non-audit services amounting to £150,000 were also 
provided by RSM UK Corporate Finance LLP, a related party 
of the audit firm, during the year to 31 December 2024 (31 
December 2023: £nil), for Corporate Finance work related to 
the Share Issue.
Independence and Objectivity of the Auditor
The Audit Committee has considered the independence 
and objectivity of the Auditor and has conducted a review 
of non-audit services which the Auditor has provided during 
the year under review. The Audit Committee receives an 
annual assurance from the Auditor that its independence is 
not compromised by the provision of non-audit services and 
that it maintains appropriate internal safeguards in line with 
applicable professional standards.
In evaluating the performance of the Auditor, the Audit 
Committee considered the effectiveness of the audit process, 
taking consideration of the quality of delivery, staff expertise, 
audit fees and the Auditor’s independence, along with 
matters raised during the audit.
Having considered the Auditor’s independence in respect of 
the year under review, the Audit Committee is satisfied with 
the Auditor’s performance, objectivity, and independence. 
The Audit Committee reviews the continuing appointment of 
the Auditor on an annual basis and regularly considers the 
Auditor’s fees and independence, along with matters raised 
during each audit.
Auditor Appointment
Following consideration of the performance of the Auditor, 
the service provided during the year and a review of their 
independence and objectivity, the Audit Committee has 
recommended to the Board the continued appointment of 
RSM UK Audit LLP as the Company’s external independent 
Auditor. As noted above, the Board will run a tender process 
during the financial year to 31 December 2025 and may 
appoint a replacement auditor during the year.
Committee Effectiveness
During the year, the Board carried out an internally facilitated 
evaluation of its performance and that of its Committees. 
This evaluation confirmed that the Audit Committee 
continued to operate at an appropriate standard.

NOMINATION COMMITTEE REPORT
I am pleased to present our Nomination Committee 
Report for the year ended 31 December 2024, which 
provides an update on the Committee’s activities 
through the year.
Role of the Nomination Committee
The role of the Nomination Committee is to undertake the 
formal process of reviewing the balance, effectiveness, and 
diversity of the Board and to consider succession planning, 
identifying the skills and expertise needed to meet the 
future challenges and opportunities facing the Company, 
and those individuals who might best provide them. As part 
of ongoing succession planning, the Nomination Committee 
ensures that all Board appointments are subject to a 
formal, rigorous and transparent procedure.
The Nomination Committee, as and when necessary, 
makes recommendations to the Board about the criteria 
for future Board appointments and the methods of 
selection. It also considers and reviews the appointment of 
a Senior Independent Director, membership of the Board’s 
Committees, and the re-appointment of those Directors 
standing for re-election at AGMs.
In addition, the Nomination Committee is responsible for 
assessing the time commitment required for each Board 
appointment and ensuring that the present incumbents 
have sufficient time to devote to their role, and for 
reviewing the Directors’ performance review process. 
Composition
The Nomination Committee membership consists solely 
of the independent non-executive Directors and me as 
Chair. Mr Daniel Taylor was a member of the Committee 
until his resignation on 15 October 2024. The Committee is 
required to meet at least once annually, and its quorum is 
two members.
The Committee met on two occasions during the year. 
Attendance at these scheduled meetings was as follows:
Matters considered by the Nomination 
Committee during the year to 
31 December 2024
Succession Planning
An important aspect of the Nomination Committee’s role 
is to consider succession planning to ensure the orderly 
replacement of Board members. Succession planning was 
a key focus of the Committee for 2024 following its ongoing 
assessment of the tenure of Board members. The Board 
and Nomination Committee’s detailed succession plan was 
put in place to implement a refresh of the Board whilst also 
ensuring an orderly handover for the Chairman and the 
Senior Independent Director.
Daniel Taylor, having reached the end of his nine-year 
tenure, retired from the Board in October 2024, I succeeded 
him as Senior Independent Director. On 24 October 2024, 
Nicole Burstow joined the Board as a Non-Executive Director 
representing Bridgemere Investments Limited, a significant 
shareholder. The Committee and the Board consider that Ms 
Burstow’s extensive career in financial services, together with 
her commercial experience, will be of great benefit to the 
Company.

NOMINATION COMMITTEE REPORT CONTINUED
In October 2024, Kevin McGrath also reached the end of 
his nine-year tenure as a Director. However, the Board 
was of the view that it would be in the best interests of the 
Company to extend Mr McGrath’s tenure to March 2025 to 
ensure a successful conclusion of last year’s equity raise, 
and subsequently assist the Board in its identification of his 
successor and help ensure a smooth handover to the Chair 
designate. 
Fidelio Partners, an independent external search consultancy 
with no connection to the Company, was engaged to 
assist with the search criteria for candidates to replace Mr 
McGrath as Chair. The search criteria included a preference 
for a diverse range of candidates, with strong experience 
in regional commercial property investments or extensive 
operational property experience, the ability to build positive 
relationships and engage with multiple stakeholders and 
have a sound understanding of Corporate Governance duties 
and expectations as a Chair of a listed company. 
After a thorough search process and due consideration, 
David Hunter was appointed to the Board with effect from 
2 January 2025, being the strongest candidate with relevant 
knowledge, qualifications, and experience. Mr Hunter 
replaced Mr McGrath as Chairman in March 2025 after the 
successful completion of their handover period.
Mr Stephen Inglis, a non-executive director, reached the end 
of his nine-year tenure on 15 October 2024. However, the 
board believes that Mr Inglis makes an important and unique 
contribution to meetings of the Board and consistently 
demonstrates independence, objectivity, and commitment 
which is beneficial to the Company. The Directors consider 
that it is in the best interests of the Company for Mr Inglis to 
remain on the Board at this time.
Board Diversity
The Board’s policy on diversity is to ensure that the Directors 
have a broad range of experience, skills and knowledge, 
with diversity of thinking, background and perspective. 
Appointments to the Board are made on merit against 
objective criteria, having regard to the benefits of diversity 
and the current and future needs of the business and the 
other factors set out in the AIC Code and the UK Listing Rules.
Diversity, including, but not limited to, gender, social 
background, ethnicity, age, sexual orientation, disability and 
professional and industry specific knowledge, is an important 
consideration in ensuring that the Board and its committees 
have the right balance of skills, experience, independence, and 
knowledge necessary to discharge their responsibilities. The 
Board notes the FCA targets on diversity on company boards:
a. 	 At least 40% of individuals on the Board to be women.
b.	 At least one senior Board position to be held by a woman; 
and
c.	 At least one individual on the Board to be from a minority 
ethnic background.
The Company has met or exceeded the above 
recommendations during the year, having 60% women on 
the Board, a senior position held by a woman (the Senior 
Independent Director) and at least one person from a 
minority ethnic group as at 31 December 2024.
In accordance with UK Listing Rule 6 Annex 1, the below 
tables, in prescribed format, show the gender and ethnic 
background of the Directors at the date of this Report. The

Board Performance
As detailed on page 132, the Committee reviewed the results 
of the Board Performance Review.
Election and Re-election of Directors
Ms Burstow and Mr Hunter, having been appointed Directors 
since the last AGM will stand for election at the Company’s 
AGM in 2025 and all other Directors will stand for re-election. 
The Committee and the Board have concluded that each 
Director standing for election and re-election continues 
to demonstrate the necessary skills, experience, and 
commitment to contribute effectively and add value to the 
Board. Biographies of each Director are available on pages 
106 to 109. It is the Committee’s and the Board’s view that 
the Directors’ biographies illustrate why each Director’s 
contribution is, and continues to be, important to the 
Company’s long-term sustainable success. 
Committee Effectiveness
During the year, the Board carried out an internally facilitated 
evaluation of its performance and that of its Committees. 
This evaluation confirmed that the Nomination Committee 
continued to operate at a high standard.

MANAGEMENT ENGAGEMENT AND 
REMUNERATION COMMITTEE REPORT
I am pleased to present the Management 
Engagement and Remuneration Committee Report 
for the year ended 31 December 2024.
Role of the Management Engagement and 
Remuneration Committee ("MERC")
The principal duties of the MERC are:
• 	to recommend and monitor the appropriateness 
of the ongoing appointment of the Asset Manager 
and Investment Adviser of the Company and make a 
recommendation to the Board thereon;
• 	to recommend and monitor the appropriateness of the 
level of fees of the Asset Manager and Investment Adviser 
and make a recommendation to the Board thereon;
• 	to recommend and monitor the appropriateness of the 
ongoing appointment of third-party service providers and 
make a recommendation to the Board thereon;
• 	to monitor and agree the level and structure of 
remuneration of the Directors of the Company;
• 	to authorise the policy for authorising claims for expenses 
from the Directors; and
• 	to select, appoint and set the terms of any remuneration 
consultant who advises the Committee.
Composition and Meetings
The MERC consists solely of the independent non-executive 
Directors including me as Chair and met once during the 
year under review. Mr Daniel Taylor was a member of 
the Committee until his resignation on 15 October 2024. 
In accordance with its Terms of Reference, the MERC is 
required to meet at least once annually.

Activities During the Year
The Board keeps the performance of the Asset Manager 
and Investment Adviser under continual review. In addition, 
in accordance with the requirements of the AIC Code, the 
MERC reviews the performance of the Asset Manager's and 
Investment Adviser's obligations under their respective 
Asset Management and Investment Management 
Agreements and considers the need for any variation to 
the terms of these Agreements on an annual basis. The 
Committee then makes a recommendation to the Board 
about the continuing appointment of the Asset Manager 
and Investment Adviser under the terms of their respective 
Agreements.
When periodically reviewing the terms of the management 
agreements, the Committee also considers the 
remuneration arrangements and the methodology 
underpinning the annual management and performance 
fees.
On a regular basis, the Board reviews the acquisition 
and disposal decisions made by the Asset Manager. To 
ensure open and regular communication between the 
Asset Manager, Investment Adviser and the Board, a 
representative of the Asset Manager, Mr Inglis, has been 
appointed to the Board and consequently attends all 
Board meetings. The Asset Manager provides regular 
updates to the Board on the Company’s assets and the 
property market generally. The Investment Adviser provides 
regular updates to the Board on the Company’s financial 
performance.
During the year under review, the MERC considered the 
ongoing appointment of the Company’s other third-
party service providers and was satisfied both with the 
effectiveness of the performance of these providers, 
and the added value in respect of those services. The 
Committee recommended to the Board that all third-party 
service providers be retained.
In addition, the Investment Adviser undertakes continual 
review of the competitiveness of the fees of the Company’s 
service providers and advises the MERC as appropriate.
The MERC also considered the remuneration of the 
independent non-executive Directors, details of which 
can be found in the Remuneration Report on page 150. 
No individual was involved in discussions about their own 
remuneration.
Remuneration Advisers
The Company has not sought the advice or service by 
any outside persons or consultants in respect of the 
consideration of Directors’ remuneration.
Committee Effectiveness
During the year, the Board carried out an internally 
facilitated evaluation of its performance and that of its 
Committees. This evaluation confirmed that the MERC 
continued to operate at a high standard.

This report has been prepared in accordance with the relevant requirements of the 
UK Listing Rules. The MERC comprises the Independent Directors of the Company.
As at 31 December 2024 and the date of this report, the Board consists entirely of non- 
executive Directors and the Company has no employees. The MERC reviews Directors’ 
fees on an annual basis. During the year under review, the MERC reviewed the level 
of Directors’ remuneration, having regard to the level of activity of the Company, its 
financial results, market rates generally and the time commitment and responsibilities 
required of each Director. As a result of this review, the MERC decided not to make any 
changes to the Directors’ remuneration.
The remuneration of the Directors was last increased on 1 April 2022 by 5%. No change 
has been proposed to the Directors' remuneration for the year ending 31 December 
2024. Directors’ fees remain within the approved maximum aggregate amount set out 
in the Company’s Articles of Incorporation of £400,000 in any financial year. 
The MERC ensured that the level of remuneration remained aligned to the 
performance of the Company and will take into consideration the views of 
shareholders on Directors’ remuneration. The MERC has not been provided with any 
advice or services by any person or organisation in respect of its consideration of 
the Directors’ remuneration. The MERC consults industry benchmarks for Directors’ 
remuneration to ensure that remuneration is competitive in the marketplace with 
regard to its size and levels of activity expected of Directors.
As Chair of the Management Engagement and Remuneration Committee (“MERC”) and on 
behalf of the Board, I am pleased to present the Directors’ Remuneration Report for the 
year ended 31 December 2024.
Directors’ Remuneration
The Directors are entitled to receive fees for their services, 
as determined within the limits set out in the Company’s 
Articles of Incorporation. The level of remuneration 
has been set to reflect the experience and expertise 
of the Board as a whole, determined with reference to 
comparable organisations and appointments. The fee for 
any new Director appointed will be determined on the 
same basis.
I receive no additional remuneration for my role as 
Senior Independent Director or as chair of the MERC and 
Nomination Committee. Ms Daley receives additional 
remuneration for her role as chair of the Audit Committee 
to reflect the more onerous role.
Mr Inglis has waived his right to receive remuneration 
from the Company due to his position as Head of the 
Asset Manager. Ms Burstow's remuneration is paid to her 
employer Bridgemere Investments Limited. Ms Burstow 
was appointed as a Non-Executive Director of the Company 
as a representative of significant shareholder, Bridgemere 
Investments Limited.
The Directors may be paid all reasonable travel, hotel and 
other out-of-pocket expenses properly incurred by them 
in attending Board or committee meetings or general 
meetings, and all reasonable expenses properly incurred 
by them seeking independent professional advice on any 
matter that concerns them in the furtherance of their duties 
as a Director. None of the Directors claimed any expenses 
during the year.
None of the Directors has a service contract, but letters of 
appointment setting out the terms of their appointment are 
in place. Copies of the letters of appointment are available 
for inspection at the Company’s registered office address 
and will be made available to view at the AGM.
Additional Remuneration
There are no performance conditions attaching to the 
remuneration of the Directors as the Board does not 
believe that this is appropriate for non-executive Directors. 
Directors are not eligible for bonuses and do not receive 
pension benefits, long-term incentive schemes or Share 
options or any other non-statutory benefits or incentives. 
Directors’ & Officers’ Liability Insurance is maintained and 
paid for by the Company on behalf of the Directors. No 
Director is entitled to any other monetary payment or any 
assets of the Company. The same principles will apply to 
any new Director appointments.
No additional remuneration was paid to the Directors 
during the year. 
Payment for Loss of Office and Payments to 
Past Directors
Compensation will not be made upon early termination of 
appointment. No payment has been made to any former 
Director for loss of office and there were no payments for 
past Directors in the year ended 31 December 2024 (31 
December 2023: none).
Remuneration Consultants
The Group did not engage the services of an external 
remuneration consultant during the period under review.

Directors’ Shareholdings
Neither the Company’s articles of incorporation nor the 
Directors’ letters of appointment require a Director to own 
shares in the Company. Any shares held by the Directors 
and their connected persons have been bought on the 
open market. Details of the Directors’ interests in shares are 
provided on page 112.
Shareholder Engagement

and any views expressed by shareholders on the fees being 
paid to Directors would be taken into consideration by the 
MERC in the annual review of Directors’ fees. 
On behalf of the Board
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Regional 
REIT Limited (the ‘parent company’) and its subsidiaries 
(the ‘group’) for the year ended 31 December 2024 which 
comprise the consolidated statement of comprehensive 
income, consolidated statement of financial position, 
consolidated statement of changes in equity, consolidated 
statement of cash flows and notes to the financial 
statements, including significant accounting policies. The 
financial reporting framework that has been applied in their 
preparation is applicable law and UK-adopted International 
Accounting Standards.
In our opinion, the financial statements:
• 	give a true and fair view of the state of the group’s affairs 
as at 31 December 2024 and of the group’s loss for the 
year then ended;
•	 are in accordance with UK-adopted International 
Accounting Standards; and
•	 comply with the requirements of The Companies 
(Guernsey) Law, 2008.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International 
Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. 
Our responsibilities under those standards are further 
described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit 
of the financial statements section of our report. We are 
independent of the group in accordance with the ethical 
requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial 
statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard as 
applied to listed public interest entities, and we have fulfilled 
our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these 
requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have 
obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for 
our opinion.
Key audit matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional 
judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the group 
financial statements of the current period and include the 
most significant assessed risks of material misstatement 
(whether or not due to fraud) we identified, including those 
which had the greatest effect on the overall audit strategy, 
the allocation of resources in the audit and directing the 
efforts of the engagement team. These matters were 
addressed in the context of our audit of the group financial 
statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, 
and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Investment Properties
Key audit matter description
This is detailed in the Audit Committee report on pages 138 to 139; note 3.1.1 of the 
significant accounting judgements and estimates on page 172; note 4.5 of the significant 
accounting policies on page 175; note 14 of the notes to the financial statements on 
page 184 to 187.
The Group owns or controls through a portfolio of Special Purpose Vehicles (SPV’s) a 
portfolio of investment properties which include office, industrial and retail properties. 
The total valuation of the portfolio at 31 December 2024 was £622.5million (2023: 
£700.7million). These properties are diversified across the UK with a wide geographical 
spread.
The Directors’ assessment of the value of the investment properties at the year-end 
date is considered a key audit matter due to the magnitude of the total amount, the 
potential impact of the movement in value on the reported results, and the subjectivity 
and complexity of the valuation process.
The valuation is carried out by external valuers, Colliers International Property 
Consultants, in line with the methodology set out in note 3.1.1.
How the matter was 
addressed in the audit
We audited the independent valuation of investment properties to evaluate whether 
they had been prepared on a consistent basis for all properties and in accordance 
with Royal Institution of Chartered Surveryors standards and are considered to be 
appropriate and correctly recorded in the consolidated financial statements in line with 
the financial reporting framework. We assessed the external valuers’ qualifications 
and expertise and considered their terms of engagement, we also considered their 
objectivity and any other existing relationships with the group and concluded that there 
was no evidence that the valuers’ objectivity had been compromised. We specifically 
enquired of any challenge that had been made on their valuation report from parties 
related to the Group.
We engaged a property valuation specialist, as our auditor’s expert, and based on our 
initial discussions we identified 45 properties for detailed testing based on a sample 
of the individually material properties, or where the current year valuation movement 
fell outwith current market expectations or the yield fell outwith expectations from our 
overall review of the portfolio. 
We discussed and challenged the valuation of 25 of these properties with the 
valuer directly. The valuer demonstrated a detailed knowledge of each property, 
the geographical location, the tenant status and the overall asset desirability. We 
corroborated the additional information provided to support these movements.
In addition, our auditor’s expert carried out a review of the valuations for the remaining 
20 properties. Our expert considered the specific inputs to these valuations and also 
considered the comparable transaction evidence that was used by management’s 
expert in preparing their valuation.
We tested a sample of the inputs used by the valuer and ensured these reflected the 
correct inputs for a sample of properties. 
We audited the accuracy and completeness of the disclosures in the financial 
statements. 
Key observations
We concluded that the fair values of the investment properties being adopted by the 
group were appropriate. 
Group
Overall materiality
£9,000,000 (2023: £9,380,000)
Basis for determining overall materiality
1.2% (2023: 1.2%) of Total Assets
Rationale for benchmark applied
Total assets was used as a benchmark as it was assessed that the 
shareholders will be primarily interested in the growth in the value of 
property, represented by the property valuation.
Performance materiality
£6,750,000 (2023: £7,030,000)
Basis for determining performance 
materiality
75% of overall materiality
Materiality levels for those classes of 
transactions where materiality levels are 
lower than overall materiality
The statement of comprehensive income was tested to the lower 
Performance Materiality figure of £1,440,000 (2023: £1,710,000) to ensure 
adequate coverage of these values. This has been calculated as 4.0% (2023: 
4.0%) of Operating profit before gains and losses on property assets and 
other investments.
Reporting of misstatements to the Audit 
Committee
Misstatements in excess of £450,000 (2023: £469,000) and misstatements 
below that threshold that, in our view, warranted reporting on qualitative 
grounds.
Our application of materiality
When establishing our overall audit strategy, we set certain 
thresholds which help us to determine the nature, timing and 
extent of our audit procedures. When evaluating whether 
the effects of misstatements, both individually and on the 
financial statements as a whole, could reasonably influence 
the economic decisions of the users we take into account the 
qualitative nature and the size of the misstatements. Based 
on our professional judgement, we determined materiality as 
follows:

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE
MEMBERS OF REGIONAL REIT LIMITED CONTINUED
An overview of the scope of our audit
The group consists of 59 components, located in the 
following countries; Guernsey; Jersey; and the United 
Kingdom. 
The coverage achieved by our audit procedures was:
Full scope audits were performed for 11 components, with 
14 components subject to specific audit procedures. 
The specific audit procedures for 11 components 
included the audit of the investment properties held 
by those components and the change in fair value of 
investment properties. The specific audit procedures 
for 2 components included procedures on cash and 
cash equivalents, and additionally on interest payable 
for 1 of these. The specific audit procedures for the 
final component included procedures on the derivative 
financial instruments and net movement in fair value of 
derivative financial instruments .
All audit work on the components was performed by RSM 
UK Audit LLP with no work performed by other component 
auditors.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded 
that the directors’ use of the going concern basis of 
accounting in the preparation of the financial statements 
is appropriate. Our evaluation of the directors’ assessment 
of the group’s ability to continue to adopt the going 
concern basis of accounting included: 
• 	checking the integrity and accuracy of the cashflow 
forecasts and covenant calculations prepared by 
management;
•	 challenging management on the reasonableness of 
the assumptions made in the forecasts particularly in 
respect of; the non-payment of rent by tenants; the 
drawdown of funds from existing bank facilities; the 
headroom in banking covenants; and the ability to make 
dividend payments;
•	 assessing the reasonableness of assumptions and 
explanations provided by management to supporting 
information, where available; and
•	 auditing the accuracy of disclosures made in the 
financial statements in respect of going concern.
We have no key observations to make.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not 
identified any material uncertainties relating to events 
or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast 
significant doubt on the group’s ability to continue as a 
going concern for a period of at least twelve months from 
when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
In relation to the entity reporting on how they have 
applied the AIC Code of Corporate Governance, we have 
nothing material to add or draw attention to in relation to 
the directors’ statement in the financial statements about 
whether the directors considered it appropriate to adopt 
the going concern basis of accounting.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the 
directors with respect to going concern are described in 
the relevant sections of this report.
Other information
The other information comprises the information included 
in the annual report, other than the financial statements 
and our auditor’s report thereon. The directors are 
responsible for the other information contained within the 
annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements 
does not cover the other information and we do not 
express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
Our responsibility is to read the other information and, 
in doing so, consider whether the other information is 
materially inconsistent with the financial statements 
or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit 
or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If 
we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent 
material misstatements, we are required to determine 
whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the 
financial statements themselves. If, based on the work 
we have performed, we conclude that there is a material 
misstatement of this other information, we are required to 
report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
Matters on which we are required to report 
by exception  
We have nothing to report in respect of the following 
matters where The Companies (Guernsey) Law 2008 
requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
• 	proper accounting records have not been kept by the 
parent company; or
•	 the financial statements are not in agreement with the 
accounting records; or
•	 we have failed to obtain all the information and 
explanations which, to the best of our knowledge and 
belief, are necessary for the purposes of our audit.

Corporate governance statement
We have reviewed the directors’ statement in relation to 
going concern, longer-term viability and that part of the 
Corporate Governance Statement relating to the parent 
company’s compliance with the provisions of the AIC Code 
of Corporate Governance specified for our review by the 
Listing Rules.
Based on the work undertaken as part of our audit, we 
have concluded that each of the following elements of the 
Corporate Governance Statement is materially consistent 
with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained 
during the audit:
• 	Directors’ statement with regards the appropriateness 
of adopting the going concern basis of accounting and 
any material uncertainties identified set out on page 
73; 
•	 Directors’ explanation as to its assessment of the 
group’s prospects, the period this assessment covers 
and why this period is appropriate set out on page 73 
to 74; 
•	 Directors’ statement on whether it has a reasonable 
expectation that the group will be able to continue in 
operation and meets its liabilities set out on page 73; 
•	 Directors’ statement on fair, balanced and 
understandable set out on page 119;
•	 Board’s confirmation that it has carried out a robust 
assessment of the emerging and principal risks set out 
on page 135; 
•	 Section of the annual report that describes the review 
of effectiveness of risk management and internal 
control systems set out on page 135; and,
•	 Section describing the work of the audit committee set 
out on page 137 to 141.
Responsibilities of directors
As explained more fully in the directors’ responsibilities 
statement set out on page 118, the directors are 
responsible for the preparation of the financial statements 
and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, 
and for such internal control as the directors determine 
is necessary to enable the preparation of financial 
statements that are free from material misstatement, 
whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the directors are 
responsible for assessing the group’s ability to continue as 
a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related 
to going concern and using the going concern basis of 
accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate 
the group or to cease operations, or have no realistic 
alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the 
financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about 
whether the financial statements as a whole are free from 
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, 
and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. 
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is 
not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance 
with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement 
when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or 
error and are considered material if, individually or in the 
aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence 
the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of 
these financial statements.
The extent to which the audit was considered 
capable of detecting irregularities, including 
fraud
Irregularities are instances of non-compliance with 
laws and regulations. The objectives of our audit are to 
obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding 
compliance with laws and regulations that have a direct 
effect on the determination of material amounts and 
disclosures in the financial statements, to perform audit 
procedures to help identify instances of non-compliance 
with other laws and regulations that may have a material 
effect on the financial statements, and to respond 
appropriately to identified or suspected non-compliance 
with laws and regulations identified during the audit.
In relation to fraud, the objectives of our audit are to 
identify and assess the risk of material misstatement of 
the financial statements due to fraud, to obtain sufficient 
appropriate audit evidence regarding the assessed risks 
of material misstatement due to fraud through designing 
and implementing appropriate responses and to respond 
appropriately to fraud or suspected fraud identified during 
the audit.  
However, it is the primary responsibility of management, 
with the oversight of those charged with governance, 
to ensure that the entity's operations are conducted in 
accordance with the provisions of laws and regulations 
and for the prevention and detection of fraud.
In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement 
in respect of irregularities, including fraud, the group audit 
engagement team and component auditors: 
• 	obtained an understanding of the nature of the 
industry and sector, including the legal and regulatory 
framework, that the group operates in and how the 
group is complying with the legal and regulatory 
framework;
•	 inquired of management, and those charged with 
governance, about their own identification and 
assessment of the risks of irregularities, including any 
known actual, suspected or alleged instances of fraud; 
and
•	 discussed matters about non-compliance with laws 
and regulations and how fraud might occur including 
assessment of how and where the financial statements 
may be susceptible to fraud, having obtained an 
understanding of the overall of the control environment.
All relevant laws and regulations identified at a Group level 
and areas susceptible to fraud that could have a material 
effect on the consolidated financial statements were 
communicated to component auditors. Any instances of 
non-compliance with laws and regulations identified and 
communicated by a component auditor were considered 
in our group audit approach.

APPENDIX 1:
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs (UK), we 
exercise professional judgment and maintain professional 
scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
•	 Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of 
the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, 
design and perform audit procedures responsive to those 
risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and 
appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk 
of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from 
fraud is higher than for one resulting from error as fraud 
may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, 
misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. 
We include an explanation in the auditor’s report of 
the extent to which the audit was capable of detecting 
irregularities, including fraud
•	 Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to 
the audit in order to design audit procedures that are 
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose 
of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the 
group’s internal control. 
•	 Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used 
and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and 
related disclosures made by the directors.
•	 Conclude on the appropriateness of the directors’ use of 
the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the 
audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty 
exists related to events or conditions that may cast 
significant doubt on the group’s ability to continue as a 
going concern. If we conclude that the use of the going 
concern basis of accounting is appropriate and no 
material uncertainties have been identified, we report 
these conclusions in the auditor’s report. If we conclude 
that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw 
attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures 
in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are 
inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are 
based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of 
our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions 
may cause the group to cease to continue as a going 
concern.
•	 Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content 
of the financial statements, including the disclosures, 
and whether the financial statements represent the 
underlying transactions and events in a manner that 
achieves fair presentation.
•	 Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding 
the financial information of the entities or business 
activities within the group to express an opinion on the 
consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for 
the direction, supervision and performance of the group 
audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance 
regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and 
timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including 
any significant deficiencies in internal control that we 
identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a 
statement that we have complied with relevant ethical 
requirements regarding independence, including the FRC’s 
Ethical Standard as applied to public interest entities, 
and communicate with them all relationships and other 
matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our 
independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with 
governance, we determine those matters that were of 
most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial 
statements of the current period and are therefore the key 
audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s 
report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure 
about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, 
we determine that a matter should not be communicated 
in our report because the adverse consequences of doing 
so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public 
interest benefits of such communication.
We are required to include in the auditor’s report 
an explanation of how we evaluated management's 
assessment of the group’s ability to continue as a going 
concern and, where relevant, key observations arising with 
respect to that evaluation.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
1. Corporate information
The Group’s consolidated financial statements for the 
year ended 31 December 2024 comprise the results of the 
Company and its subsidiaries (together constituting the 
“Group”) and were approved by the Board and authorised 
for issue on 24 March 2025.
The Company is a company limited by Shares incorporated 
in Guernsey under The Companies (Guernsey) Law, 
2008, as amended (the “Law”). The Company’s Ordinary 
Shares are admitted to the Official List of the Financial 
Conduct Authority (“FCA”) and traded on the London Stock 
Exchange (“LSE”).
The Company was incorporated on 22 June 2015 and 
is registered with the Guernsey Financial Services 
Commission as a Registered Closed-Ended Collective 
Investment Scheme pursuant to The Protection of 
Investors (Bailiwick of Guernsey) Law, 2020, as amended, 
and the Registered Collective Investment Scheme Rules & 
Guidance 2021.
The Company did not begin trading until 6 November 2015 
when the Shares were admitted to trading on the LSE.
The nature of the Group’s operations and its principal 
activities are set out in the Strategic Report on pages 20 
to 103.
The address of the registered office is Mont Crevelt House, 
Bulwer Avenue, St. Sampson, Guernsey GY2 4LH.
2. Basis of preparation
The Group’s consolidated financial statements have been 
prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with the 
Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the FCA, 
the requirements of The Companies (Guernsey) Law 2008 
and with UK-adopted International Accounting Standards.
The Group’s consolidated financial statements have been 
prepared on a historical cost basis, as modified for the 
Group’s investment properties and certain financial assets 
and financial liabilities (including derivative instruments) at 
fair value through profit or loss.
2.1 Functional and presentation currency
The financial information is presented in Pounds Sterling, 
which is also the functional currency of all Group 
companies, and all values are rounded to the nearest 
thousand (£’000) pound, except where otherwise indicated.
2.2 Going concern
The Directors confirm that they have a reasonable 
expectation that the Group has adequate resources 
to continue as a going concern. This expectation is 
underpinned by having made an assessment of the 
Group’s ability to continue in operational existence, giving 
due consideration to the Group’s cashflow forecast, which 
encompasses cash resources, rental income, acquisition 
and disposals of investment properties, elective and 
committed capital expenditure, dividend distributions and 
the borrowing facilities and the respective maturities.
Following the successful completion of the £110.5 million 
equity capital raise in July 2024, the Group ended the 
year under review with £56.7 million of cash and cash 
equivalents, of which £55.9 million was unrestricted cash. 
The borrowing facilities remained compliant with all loan 
covenants, with a net LTV of c.41.8%, based upon the value 
of the Group’s investment properties as at 31 December 
2024. Rental income collections remained robust with 
98.6% of rent invoiced in the year collected as at 14 March 
2025.
Given the substantial amount of unrestricted cash 
currently held by the Group and, with the next borrowing 
due to mature being the Royal Bank of Scotland, Bank of 
Scotland and Barclays £99.8 million facility in August 2026, 
the Directors are satisfied that the Group and Company 
have adequate resources to continue in operational 
existence for a period of at least 12 months from the date 
that these Financial Statements were approved. Based on 
the above, together with available market information, 
the Directors are not aware of any material uncertainties 
that may cast significant doubt upon the Group’s ability 
to continue as a going concern. Accordingly, the Directors 
consider that it is appropriate to continue to prepare the 
Financial Statements on a going concern basis.
2.3 Business combinations
At the time of acquisition, the Group considers whether 
each acquisition represents the acquisition of a business 
or the acquisition of an asset. For an acquisition of a 
business where an integrated set of activities are acquired 
in addition to the property, the Group accounts for the 
acquisition as a business combination under IFRS 3 
Business Combinations (“IFRS 3”). 
Where such acquisitions are not judged to be the 
acquisition of a business, they are not treated as business 
combinations. Rather, the cost to acquire the corporate 
entity is allocated between the identifiable assets and 
liabilities of the entity based upon their relative fair 
values at the acquisition date. Accordingly, no goodwill or 
additional deferred tax arises.
2.4 New standards, amendments and 
interpretations
New standards, amendments to standards and 
interpretations which came into effect for accounting 
periods starting on or after 1 January 2024 are as follows:
Amendments to IAS 1 ‘Presentation of Financial 
Statements’ (effective for periods beginning on or after 1 
January 2024) clarify that liabilities are classified as either 
current or non-current, depending on the rights that exist 
at the end of the reporting period and not expectations of 
or actual events after the reporting date. The amendments 
also give clarification to the definition of settlement of a 
liability. 
Amendments to IAS 1 ‘Presentation of Financial 
Statements’ (effective for periods beginning on or after 1 
January 2024) give clarification with respect to covenants 
when assessing whether liabilities are classified as either 
current or non-current.
Amendments to IFRS 16 ‘Leases’ (effective for 
periods beginning on or after 1 January 2024) include 
requirements to explain how an entity accounts for a sale 
and leaseback after the date of transaction.
Amendments to IAS 7 ‘Cash Flow Statements’ and 
IFRS 7 ‘Financial Instruments: Disclosure’ (effective 
for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2024) require 
disclosures to enhance the transparency of supplier 
finance arrangements and their effects on an entity’s 
liabilities, cash flows and exposure to liquidity risk. 
During the year ended 31 December 2024, none of the 
above had a material impact on the financial statements.
2.5 New standards, amendments and 
interpretations effective for future 
accounting periods
A number of new standards, amendments to standards 
and interpretations are effective for periods beginning 
on or after 1 January 2025 and have not been applied in 
preparing these financial statements. These are:
IFRS S1 General Requirements for Disclosure of 
Sustainability-related Financial Information (effective 
for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2024 but not 
yet endorsed for use in the UK). 
IFRS S2 Climate-related Disclosures (effective for periods 
beginning on or after 1 January 2024 but not yet endorsed 
for use in the UK). 
Amendments to IAS 21 ‘The Effects of Changes in 
Foreign Exchange Rates’ (effective for periods beginning 
on or after 1 January 2025) provides clarification upon 
treatment for transactions in a foreign currency that is not 
exchangeable into another currency at the measurement 
date.
IFRS 18 ‘Presentation and Disclosure in Financial 
Statements' (effective for periods beginning on or after 
1 January 2027 but not yet endorsed for use in the UK) 
replaces IAS 1 ‘Presentation of Financial Statements’.
IFRS 19 ‘Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: 
Disclosures' (effective for periods beginning on or after 
1 January 2027 but not yet endorsed for use in the UK)) 
specifies reduced disclosure requirements that an eligible 
entity is permitted to apply instead of the disclosure 
requirements in other IFRS Accounting Standards.
The Directors are assessing the impact these new 
amendments and standards will have on the preparation 
of the financial statements.

3. Significant accounting judgements, 
estimates and assumptions
The preparation of the financial statements requires 
management to make judgements, estimates and 
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of 
revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities at the reporting 
date. However, uncertainty about these assumptions and 
estimates could result in outcomes that require a material 
adjustment to the carrying amount of the asset or liability 
affected in future periods.
3.1 Critical accounting estimates and 
assumptions
The principal estimates that may be material to the 
carrying amount of assets and liabilities are as follows:
3.1.1 Valuation of investment property
The value of investment property, is determined by 
independent property valuation experts to be the 
estimated amount for which a property should exchange 
on the date of the valuation in an arm’s length transaction 
less the value of assets arising from rent smoothing. 
Properties have been valued on an individual basis. The 
valuation experts use recognised valuation techniques 
applying the principles of both IAS 40 and IFRS 13. 
The value of the properties has been assessed in 
accordance with the relevant parts of the current RICS 
Red Book. In particular, we have assessed the fair value 
as referred to in VPS4 item 7 of the RICS Red Book. 
Under these provisions, the term “Fair Value” means 
the definition adopted by the International Accounting 
Standards Board (“IASB”) in IFRS 13, namely “The price 
that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer 
a liability in an orderly transaction between market 
participants at the measurement date”. Factors reflected 
include current market conditions, annual rentals, 
lease lengths and location. The significant methods and 
assumptions used by the valuers in estimating the fair 
value of investment property are set out in note 14. 
Sensitivity analysis for investment property valuations are 
included in note 14.
The fair value of investment property is equal to the 
independent property valuer’s valuation of £622.5m (2023: 
£700.7m) less the prepayment for rent smoothing of 
£15.0m (2023: £13.0m).
3.2 Critical judgements in applying the 
Group’s accounting policies
In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, 
management has made the following judgements, 
which have the most significant effect on the amounts 
recognised in the financial statements: 
3.2.1 Operating lease contracts – the Group as 
lessor
The Group has acquired investment properties that are 
subject to commercial property leases with tenants. The 
Group has determined, based on an evaluation of the 
terms and conditions of the arrangements, particularly the 
duration of the lease terms and minimum lease payments, 
that it retains all of the significant risks and rewards of 
ownership of these properties and so accounts for the 
leases as operating leases.
3.2.2 Consolidation of entities in which the 
Group holds less than 50% but has power to 
control 
Management considered that up until 9 November 2018, 
the Group had de facto control of View Castle Limited and 
its 27 subsidiaries (the “View Castle Sub Group”) by virtue 
of the amended and restated Call Option Agreement dated 
3 November 2015. Following a restructure of the View 
Castle Sub Group, the majority of properties held within 
the View Castle Sub Group now reside in a new special 
purpose vehicle (“SPV”). A new call option was entered into 
dated 9 November 2018 with View Castle Limited and five 
of its subsidiaries (the “View Castle Group”). As per the 
previous amended and restated Call Option Agreement, 
under this new option the Group may acquire any of 
the properties held by the View Castle Group for a fixed 
nominal consideration. Despite having no equity holding, 
the Group is deemed to have control over the View Castle 
Group as the Option Agreement means that the Group 
is exposed to, and has rights to, variable returns from its 
involvement with the View Castle Group, through its power 
to control.
3.2.3 Recognition of income 
Service charges and other similar receipts are included in 
net rental and property income gross of the related costs 
as the Directors consider the Group acts as principal in 
this respect.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 CONTINUED
4. Summary of significant accounting policies
The accounting policies adopted in this report are 
consistent with those applied in the financial statements 
for the year ended 31 December 2023 and have been 
consistently applied for the year ended 31 December 2024. 
A new asset class has arisen in the year addressed in the 
accounting policy 4.3.
4.1 Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements comprise the 
financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries 
as at the date of the Statement of Financial Position.
4.2 Subsidiaries
Subsidiaries are all entities (including structured entities) 
over which the Group has control. The Group controls 
an entity when the Group is exposed to, or has rights to, 
variable returns from its involvement with the entity and 
has the ability to affect those returns through its power 
over the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from 
the date on which control is transferred to the Group. 
They are deconsolidated from the date that control ceases.
The Group applies the acquisition method to account for 
business combinations. The consideration transferred 
for the acquisition of a subsidiary is the fair value of the 
assets transferred, the liabilities incurred to the former 
owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by 
the Group. Identifiable assets and liabilities acquired, and 
contingent liabilities assumed, in a business combination 
are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition 
date. The Group recognises any non-controlling interest 
in the acquiree on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis, 
either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest's 
proportionate share of the recognised amounts of the 
acquiree's identifiable net assets. Acquisition-related costs 
are expensed as incurred.
Any contingent consideration to be transferred by the 
Group is recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. 
Subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent 
consideration are recognised in profit or loss. Contingent 
consideration that is classified as equity is not re-
measured, and its subsequent settlement is accounted for 
within equity.
For acquisitions of subsidiaries not meeting the definition 
of a business, the Group allocates the cost between the 
individual identifiable assets and liabilities in the Group 
based on their relative fair values at the date of acquisition. 
Such transactions or events do not give rise to goodwill.
Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealised gains 
and losses on transactions between Group companies are 
eliminated in full. When necessary, amounts reported by 
subsidiaries have been adjusted to conform to the Group’s 
accounting policies.
The excess of the consideration transferred, and the 
amount of any non-controlling interest in the acquiree 
over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired, 
is recognised as goodwill.
4.2.1 Disposal of subsidiaries
When the Group ceases to have control over an entity, 
any retained interest in the entity is re-measured to its fair 
value at the date when control is lost, with the change in 
the carrying amount recognised in profit or loss. The fair 
value is the initial carrying amount for the purposes of 
subsequently accounting for the retained interest as an 
associate, joint venture or financial asset. In addition, any 
amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive 
income in respect of that entity are accounted for as if 
the Group had directly disposed of the related assets 
or liabilities. This may mean that amounts previously 
recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassified 
to profit or loss.
4.3 Associates
Associates are entities over which the investor has 
significant influence, being the power to participate in the 
financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but 
is not control or joint control of those policies, and holds 
20% or more of the voting power.
The Group adopts the equity method of accounting on 
such assets. On initial recognition, the investment in an 
associate is recognised at cost, and the carrying amount 
is increased or decreased, to recognise the investor's 
share of the profit or loss in the associate after the date of 
acquistion less distributions received. 
The Group's share of the Associates' profit or loss is 
recorded in the Consolidated Income Statement. 
4.4 Segmental information
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent 
with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating 
decision-maker. The chief operating decision-maker 
is the person or group that allocates resources to and 
assesses the performance of the operating segments of an 
entity. The Group has determined that its chief operating 
decision-maker is the Board of Directors.
After a review of the information provided for 
management purposes, it was determined that the Group 
has one operating segment and therefore segmental 
information is not disclosed in these consolidated financial 
statements. No single customer comprises in excess of 
10% of the Group's revenue in either 2024 or 2023.
4.5 Investment property
Investment property comprises freehold or leasehold 
properties that are held to earn rentals or for capital 
appreciation, or both, rather than for sale in the 
ordinary course of business or for use in production or 
administrative functions.
Investment property is recognised, usually, on legal 
completion, when the risks and rewards of ownership have 
been transferred, and is measured initially at cost including 
transaction costs. Transaction costs include transfer taxes, 
professional fees for legal services and other costs incurred 
in order to bring the property to the condition necessary for 
it to be capable of being utilised in the manner intended. 
Subsequent to initial recognition, investment property is 
stated at fair value. The Group recognise the fair value 
of investment property to be the value calculated by the 
independent property valuer less the value of assets arising 
from rent smoothing. Gains or losses arising from changes 
in the fair value are included in the Group’s Consolidated 
Statement of Comprehensive Income in the period in which 
they arise under IAS 40, ‘Investment Property’.
Additions to investment property include costs of a capital 
nature only. Expenditure is classified as capital when it 
results in identifiable future economic benefits, which 
are expected to accrue to the Group. All other property 
expenditure is charged in the Group’s Consolidated 
Statement of Comprehensive Income as incurred.
Investment properties cease to be recognised when they 
have been disposed of or withdrawn permanently from use 
and no future economic benefit is expected. The difference 
between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying 
amount of the asset (being the fair value at the start of 
the financial year) would result in either gains or losses 
at the retirement or disposal of investment property. Any 
gains or losses are recognised in the Group’s Consolidated 
Statement of Comprehensive Income in the period of 
retirement or disposal.
4.6 Derivative financial instruments
Derivative financial instruments, comprising interest 
rate caps and swaps for hedging purposes, are initially 
recognised at fair value and are subsequently measured 
at fair value, being the estimated amount that the Group 
would receive or pay to sell or transfer the agreement at 
the period end date, taking into account current interest 
rate expectations and the current credit rating of the 
lender and its counterparties. The gain or loss at each fair 
value remeasurement date is recognised in the Group’s 
Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income. 
The Group uses valuation techniques that are appropriate 
in the circumstances and for which sufficient data is 
available to measure fair value, maximising the use 
of relevant observable inputs and minimising the use 
of unobservable inputs significant to the fair value 
measurement as a whole.
4.7 Financial assets
The Group classifies its financial assets as at fair value 
through profit or loss or at amortised cost, depending on 
the purpose for which the asset was acquired. Currently the 
only assets classified at fair value through profit or loss are 
derivative financial instruments.
Assets held at amortised cost arise principally from the 
provision of goods and services (e.g. trade and other 
receivables), but also incorporate other financial assets 
where the objective is to hold these assets in order to 
collect contractual cash flows which comprise the payment 
of principal and interest. They are initially recognised at fair 
value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to 
their acquisition or issue and are subsequently carried at 
amortised cost being the effective interest rate method, less 
provision for impairment.
The Group’s financial assets comprise, ‘trade and other 
receivables’, ‘tenant loan’ and ‘cash and cash equivalents’.
The tenant loan relates to a loan made to a tenant which 
is subject to interest. The amount receivable has been 
recognised at amortised cost using the effective interest 
method. Impairment provisions are recognised based on 
the expected credit loss model detailed within IFRS 9.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 CONTINUED
4.8 Trade and other receivables
Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at fair 
value and subsequently carried at amortised cost less 
provision for impairment. Where the time value of money 
is material, receivables are carried at amortised cost using 
the effective interest method. Impairment provisions 
are recognised based on the expected credit loss model 
detailed within IFRS 9.
The Group recognises a loss allowance for expected credit 
losses on trade receivables. The loss allowance is based 
on lifetime expected credit losses. Trade receivables are 
grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and 
the days past due. The amount of expected credit losses 
is updated at each reporting date to reflect changes in 
credit risk since initial recognition. The expected credit 
losses on these financial assets are estimated based on 
the Group’s historical credit loss experience, adjusted for 
factors that are specific to the debtors, general economic 
conditions and an assessment of both the current as well 
as the forecast direction of conditions at the reporting date. 
Impaired balances are reported net, however, impairment 
provisions are recorded within a separate provision account 
with the loss being recognised within administration costs 
within the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive 
Income. On confirmation that the trade receivable will 
not be collectable, the gross carrying value of the asset is 
written off against the associated provision. 
Lease premiums and other lease incentives provided to 
tenants are recognised as an asset and amortised over the 
period from date of lease commencement to termination 
date.
4.9 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand and 
deposits held at banks with original maturities of three 
months or less. Cash also includes amounts held in 
restricted accounts that are unavailable for everyday use.
4.10 Trade and other payables
Trade and other payables are initially recognised at their fair 
value being at their invoiced value inclusive of any VAT that 
may be applicable. Payables are subsequently measured at 
amortised cost using the effective interest method.
4.11 Bank and other borrowings
All bank and other borrowings (comprising bank loans and 
retail eligible bonds) are initially recognised at cost net of 
attributable transaction costs. Any attributable transaction 
costs relating to the issue of the bank borrowings 
are amortised through the Group’s Statement of 
Comprehensive Income over the life of the debt instrument 
on a straight-line basis. After initial recognition, all bank and 
other borrowings are measured at amortised cost, using 
the effective interest method.
Bank and other borrowings are derecognised when the 
obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or 
expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by 
another from the same lender on substantially different 
terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially 
modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as 
the derecognition of the original liability and the recognition 
of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying 
amounts is recognised in Group’s Consolidated Statement 
of Comprehensive Income.
4.12 Dividends payable to Shareholders
Equity dividends are recognised and accrued from the date 
declared and when they are no longer at the discretion of 
the Company.
4.13 Rental and property income
Rental income arising from operating leases on investment 
property is accounted for on a straight-line basis over 
the lease terms and is included in gross rental and 
property income in the Group’s Consolidated Statement 
of Comprehensive Income. Initial direct costs incurred in 
negotiating and arranging an operating lease are added to 
the carrying amount of the lease asset and are recognised 
as an expense over the lease term on the same basis as the 
lease income.
For leases which contain fixed or minimum uplifts, the 
rental income arising from such uplifts is recognised on a 
straight-line basis over the lease term.
Tenant lease incentives are recognised as a reduction of 
rental revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the 
lease. The lease term is the non-cancellable period of the 
lease together with any further term for which the tenant 
has the option to continue the lease where, at the inception 
of the lease, the Directors are reasonably certain that the 
tenant will exercise that option.
Surrender premiums received from tenants to terminate 
leases or surrender premises are recognised in the Group’s 
Statement of Comprehensive Income when the right to 
receive them arises. 
Dilapidation income is recognised in the Group’s Statement 
of Comprehensive Income when the right to receive it 
arises. 
When the Group is acting as an agent, the commission, 
rather than gross income, is recorded as revenue. 
Income arising from expenses recharged to tenants is 
recognised in the year in which the compensation becomes 
receivable. Service charges and other similar receipts are 
included in net rental and property income gross of the 
related costs as the Directors consider the Group acts as 
principal in this respect.
4.14 Property costs
Non-recoverable property costs contain service and 
management charges related to empty properties.
Service and management charges are recognised in the 
accounting period in which the services are rendered.
Recoverable property costs contain service charges and 
other similar costs which are recognised in the accounting 
period in which the services are rendered.
4.15 Interest income
Interest income is recognised as interest accrued on cash 
balances held by the Group. Interest charged to a tenant on 
any overdue rental income is also recognised within interest 
income.
4.16 Finance costs
Interest costs are expensed in the period in which they 
occur. Arrangement fees that a Group entity incurs in 
connection with bank and other borrowings are amortised 
over the term of the loan.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 CONTINUED
4.17 Taxation
As the Company is managed and controlled in the UK, it is 
considered to be tax resident in the UK.
The tax currently payable is based on the taxable profit/
(loss) for the period. Taxable profit/(loss) differs from net 
profit/(loss) as reported in the Consolidated Statement 
of Comprehensive Income because it excludes items of 
income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other 
years and it further excludes items that are never taxable 
or deductible. The Group's liability for current and deferred 
tax is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted 
or substantively enacted at the date of the Statement of 
Financial Position. 
The Group elected to be treated as a UK REIT with effect 
from 7 November 2015. The UK REIT rules exempt the 
profits of the Group’s UK property rental business from UK 
Corporation Tax. Gains on UK properties are also exempt 
from tax, provided that they are not held for trading or sold 
in the three years after completion of development. The 
Group is otherwise subject to UK Corporation Tax.
There are a small number of entities within the Group 
which fall outside the REIT rules and are subject to UK taxes 
on profits and property gains.
4.18 Deferred tax
Deferred tax is provided in full using the liability method 
on temporary differences between the carrying amounts 
of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the 
corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable 
profit/(loss). The amount of deferred tax provided is based 
on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the 
carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates 
that are expected to apply in the period when the liability 
is settled or the asset is realised based on tax rates (and 
tax laws) enacted or substantively enacted at the date of 
the Statement of Financial Position. A deferred tax asset is 
recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future 
profits will be available for offset.
The deferred tax liability in relation to investment 
properties that are measured at fair value is determined 
assuming that the property will be recovered entirely 
through sale.
Deferred tax has been recognised on the unrealised 
property valuation gains/(losses) of properties owned by 
Group entities which fall outside of the REIT tax rules.
The current rate of UK Corporation Tax is 25%. 
4.19 Stated capital
Stated capital represents the consideration received by the 
Company for the issue of Ordinary Shares. Ordinary Shares 
are classed as equity.
4.20 Share-based payments 
The Group has entered into performance fee arrangements 
with the Asset Manager and Investment Adviser which 
depend on the growth in the net asset value of the Group 
exceeding a hurdle rate of return over a performance 
period. The fee will be partly settled in cash and partly in 
equity and the equity portion is therefore a Share-based 
payment arrangement. The fair value of the obligation is 
measured at each reporting period, and the cost recognised 
as an expense. The part of the obligation to be settled 
in Shares is credited to equity reserves. If circumstances 
change and the fee is no longer settled by the issue of 
Shares, then the amounts previously credited to equity 
reserves are reversed. In the current and prior year, no cash 
or equity rewards have been made.
4.21 Leased assets
The Group has a number of leases concerning the long-
term lease of land associated with its long leasehold 
investment properties. These leased assets are capitalised 
as “right of use assets” by recognising the present value 
of the lease payments as an asset and a financial liability 
representing the obligation to make future lease payments.
Right of use assets are valued at fair value and the change 
in fair value is recognised in the Consolidated Statement of 
Comprehensive Income. 
The associated financial liability is valued at the present 
value of future lease payments using an applicable 
incremental borrowing rate. The value of the financial 
liability is revalued at each reporting date. Lease payments 
reduce the financial liability and interest on the financial 
liability is recognised in finance costs.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 CONTINUED
Permanent differences are the differences between an 
entity's taxable profits and its results as stated in the 
financial statements. These arise because certain types of 
income and expenditure are nontaxable or disallowable, 
or because certain tax charges or allowances have no 
corresponding amounts in the financial statements.
The Group elected to be treated as a UK REIT with effect 
from 7 November 2015. The UK REIT rules exempt the 
profits of the Group's UK property rental business from 
corporation tax. Gains on UK properties are also exempt 
from tax, provided they are not held for trading purposes 
or sold in the three years after completion of development. 
The Group is otherwise subject to UK corporation tax.
As a REIT, Regional REIT Ltd is required to pay PID's equal 
to at least 90% of the Group's exempted net income. To 
retain UK REIT status, there are a number of conditions to 
be met in respect of the principal company of the Group, 
the Group's qualifying activity and its balance of business. 
The Group continues to meet these conditions.
UK Corporation Tax arises on entities which form part of 
the Group consolidated accounts but do not form part of 
the REIT group.
Due to the Group's REIT status and its intention to 
continue meeting the conditions required to maintain 
this status for the foreseeable future, no provision has 
been made for deferred tax on any capital gains or losses 
arising on the revaluation or disposal of investments held 
by entities within the REIT group.
No deferred tax asset has been recognised in respect of 
losses carried forward.

12. Earnings per Share
Earnings per Share amounts are calculated by dividing 
(losses)/profits for the year attributable to ordinary equity 
holders of the Company by the weighted average number 
of Ordinary Shares in issue during the year.
The calculation of basic and diluted earnings per Share is 
based on the following:
In accordance with IAS 33 "Earnings per Share", the weighted 
average number of shares have been recalculated as though 
the bonus issue and share consolidation were in place from 1 
January 2024. Consequently, the EPS calculations for the year 
ended 31 December 2024 have been restated.
The weighted average number of Ordinary shares in issue 
for the year ended December 2023 was previously stated 
at 515,736,583. This figure has been multiplied by a bonus 
factor of 1.5777 representing the bonus issue and 0.1 
representing the share consolidation.

payment of dividends will be determined by the Board 
having regard to, amongst other things, the financial 
position and performance of the Group at the relevant 
time, UK REIT requirements, and the interest of 
shareholders.
All dividend rates stated in this note represent the 
dividend rates announced to the London Stock Exchange.

14. Investment properties
In accordance with International Accounting Standard, IAS 
40, ‘Investment Property’, investment property has been 
independently valued at fair value by Colliers International 
Property Consultants Limited, an accredited independent 
valuer with recognised and relevant professional 
qualifications and with recent experience in the locations 
and categories of the investment properties being valued. 
The valuations have been prepared in accordance with the 
RICS Red Book and incorporate the recommendations of 
the International Valuation Standards Committee which are 
consistent with the principles set out in IFRS 13.
The valuations are the ultimate responsibility of the Directors. 
Accordingly, the critical assumptions used in establishing 
the independent valuation are reviewed by the Board.
The net book value of properties disposed of during the 
year amounted to £31,754,000 (2023: £25,695,000).
The historic cost of the properties is £850,152,000 (2023: 
£899,236,000).
Bank borrowings are secured by charges over investment 
properties held by certain asset–holding subsidiaries.
The banks also hold charges over the shares of certain 
subsidiaries and any intermediary holding companies of 
those subsidiaries. The independent valuer's assessment 
of the value of investment properties secured at 31 
December 2024 was £622,480,000 (2023: £700,720,000).
The following table provides the fair value measurement 
hierarchy for investment property:
The table below shows the total change in fair value during 
the year.
The hierarchy levels are defined in note 30.
It has been determined that the entire investment 
properties portfolio should be classified under the level 
3 category. The table below shows the movement in the 
year on the level 3 category:
The determination of the fair value of the investment 
properties held by each consolidated subsidiary requires 
the use of estimates such as future cash flows from 
investment properties, which take into consideration 
lettings, tenants’ profiles, future revenue streams, 
any environmental matters and the overall repair and 
condition of the property, and discount rates applicable to 
those assets. Future revenue streams comprise contracted 
rent (passing rent) and Estimated Rental Value (ERV) 
after the contract period. In calculating ERV, the potential 
impact of future lease incentives to be granted to secure 
new contracts is taken into consideration. All these 
estimates are based on local market conditions existing at 
the reporting date.
As at 31 December 2024, the estimated fair value of each 
property has been primarily derived using comparable 
recent market transactions on arm’s length terms and 
assessed in accordance with the relevant parts of the RICS 
Red Book.
The impact of climate change on the portfolio and the 
principal risk around environmental and energy efficiency 
standards are disclosed in the Strategic Report on pages 
76 to 96.

Techniques used for valuing investment 
properties
The following descriptions and definitions relate to 
valuation techniques and key significant inputs made in 
determining the fair values:
Valuation technique: market comparable method 
Under the market comparable method (or market 
approach), a property's fair value is estimated based on 
comparable transactions in the market.
Significant input: market rental 
The rent at which space could be let in the market 
conditions prevailing at the date of valuation range: 
£14,200 - £3,715,000 per annum (2023: £16,200 - 
£3,237,000 per annum)
Significant input: rental growth
The decrease in rent is based on contractual agreements: 
8.64 % (2023: decrease 6.49%). There is a gross 
contracted rent reduction, as per normal operations 
it is a combination of property disposals, space under 
refurbishments and lease expiries.
Significant input: equivalent yield
The time-weighted average return that a property will 
produce including purchase costs. The equivalent yield 
generally sits between the net initial yield and reversionary 
yield. See below table.
Unobservable inputs:
The significant unobservable inputs (level 3) are sensitive 
to changes in the estimated future cash flows from 
investment properties such as increases and decreases 
in contracted rents, operating expenses and capital 
expenses, plus transactional activity in the real estate 
market.
Geographical and sector specific market evidence 
reviewed in the course of preparing the December 2024 
valuation had an initial yield range of 6.00% to 25.19%  
(2023: 5.78% to 15.0%).
As set out within the significant accounting estimates and 
judgements, the Group’s property portfolio valuation is 
open to judgement and is inherently subjective by nature, 
and actual values can only be determined in a sales 
transaction.

20. Trade and other payables
Restricted cash balances of the Group comprise:
• 	£850,000 (2023: £3,826,000) of funds held in blocked 
bank accounts which are controlled by the Group’s 
lenders and are released once certain loan conditions 
are met. The restricted funds arose on net proceeds 
from investment property disposals.
The following amounts are not analysed as restricted 
balances:
• 	£9,847,000 (2023: £7,863,000) of cash funds represent 
service charge income received from tenants for 
settlement of future service charge expenditure.
• 	£2,698,000 (2023: £2,846,000) of cash funds represent 
tenants’ rental deposits. 
The restricted cash balances are all accessible within 90 
days so meet the definition of cash and cash equivalents
Other payables principally include rent deposits held and 
service charge costs.
The Directors consider the fair value of trade and other 
payables to equal their carrying amounts.
21. Deferred income
Deferred rental income of £14,364,000 (31 December 2023: 
£15,597,000) represents rent received in advance from 
tenants.
23. Bank and loan borrowings
Bank borrowings are secured by charges over investment 
properties held by certain asset-holding subsidiaries. 
The banks also hold charges over the Shares of certain 
subsidiaries and any intermediary holding companies of 
those subsidiaries. Any associated fees in arranging the 
bank borrowings unamortised as at the year end are offset 
against amounts drawn on the facilities as shown in the 
table below:	
	
	
22. Deferred tax liabilities
The deferred tax liability relates to the potential tax liability 
that may crystalise when investment properties are sold. 
It is calculated on the revaluation gains of investment 
properties held by the Group which fall outside of the REIT 
regime.
As detailed in note 24, the Group has no (31 December 
2023: £50,000,000) retail eligible bonds in issue.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 CONTINUED
The table below lists the Group’s borrowings.
The percentage of borrowings at variable rates of interest 
was 47.2% (2023: 43.3%).
The weighted average term to maturity of the Group’s 
debt at the year end was 2.9 years (2023: 3.5 years).
The weighted average interest rate payable by the Group 
on its total bank borrowings, excluding hedging costs, as at 
the year end was 5.2% (2023: 5.4%). 
The Group weighted average interest rate, including and 
hedging activity at the year end, amounted to 3.4% per 
annum (2023: 3.5% per annum).
The Group has been in compliance with all of the financial 
covenants relating to the above facilities as applicable 
throughout the year covered by these consolidated 
financial statements. Each facility has distinct covenants 
which generally include: historic interest cover, projected 
interest cover, LTV cover and debt service cover. A breach 
of agreed covenant levels would typically result in an 
event of default of the respective facility, giving the lender 
the right, but not the obligation, to declare the loan 
immediately due and payable. Where a loan is repaid 
in these circumstances, early repayment fees will apply, 
which are generally based on a percentage of the loan 
repaid or calculated with reference to the interest income 
foregone by the lenders as a result of the repayment.
As shown in note 25, the Group uses a combination of 
interest rate swaps and fixed rate bearing loans to hedge 
against cash flow interest rate risks. The Group’s exposure 
to interest rate volatility is minimal.

August 2024. These unsecured bonds were listed on the 
London Stock Exchange ORB platform until their maturity 
in the year.
25. Derivative financial instruments
Interest rate caps and swaps are in place to mitigate the 
interest rate risk that arises as a result of entering into 
variable rate borrowings.
The calculation of fair value of interest rate caps and 
swaps is based on the following calculation: the notional 
amount multiplied by the difference between the swap 
rate and the current market rate and then multiplied 
by the number of years remaining on the contract and 
discounted. Further details can be found in note 30.1.
During the year the notional amount on derivative 
instruments was reduced with a cash amount realised of 
£2,698,000 (2023: £1,246,000).

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024 CONTINUED
The table below lists the hedging and swap notional 
amounts and rates against the details of the Group's loan 
facilities.
As at 31 December 2024, the swap notional arrangements 
were £96.1 million (2023: £120.4 million)and the cap 
notional arrangements amounted to £53.5 million (2023: 
£61.8 million).
The Group weighted average effective interest rate was 
3.4% (2023: 3.5%) inclusive of hedging costs and the Retail 
Eligible Bond.
The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date 
is the fair value of the derivative liabilities.
It is the Group’s target to hedge at least 90% of the total 
debt portfolio using interest rate derivatives and fixed–
rate facilities. As at the year end, the total proportion of 
hedged debt equated to 100.0% (2023: 100.0%), as shown

27. Stated capital
Stated capital represents the consideration received by the 
Company for the issue of Ordinary Shares.
During the year the Company offered 15 new ordinary 
shares for every 7 existing shares. This resulted in an 
increase of 1,105,149,821 Ordinary Shares being issued. 
Subsequently, there was a 10 for 1 split with the resulting 
Ordinary shares in issue being 162,088,483.
29. Notes to the Statement of Cash Flows
29.1 Reconciliation of changes in liabilities to 
cash flows arising from financing activities
28. Net asset value (NAV) per Share
Basic NAV per Share is calculated by dividing the net 
assets in the Statement of Financial Position attributable 
to ordinary equity holders of the parent by the number of 
Ordinary Shares outstanding at the end of the year. See 
Note 27 for futher explanation.
Further detail of the EPRA performance measures can be 
found on pages 208 to 211.
The number of shares have been recalculated as though 
the bonus issue and share consolidation were in place at 
31 December 2023.
The number of Ordinary shares in issue at 31 December 
2023 was previously stated at 515,736,583. This figure has 
been multiplied by a bonus factor of 1.5777 representing the 
bonus issue and 0.1 representing the share consolidation.
Prior to this restatement the NAV and EPRA NTA were 
previously stated at 59.3p and 56.4p respectively.

30. Financial risk management
30.1 Financial instruments
The Group’s principal financial assets and liabilities are 
those that arise directly from its operations: trade and 
other receivables, trade and other payables and cash and 
cash equivalents. The Group’s other principal financial 
assets and liabilities are bank and other loan borrowings, 
amounts due to interest rate derivatives and lease 
liabilities, the main purpose of which is to finance the 
acquisition and development of the Group’s investment 
property portfolio.
Set out below is a comparison by class of the carrying 
amounts of the Group’s financial instruments that are 
carried in the financial statements and their fair value:
The following financial liabilities are recorded in the 
Consolidated Statement of Financial Position at amortised 
cost but their fair value is different as disclosed above. 
Their fair values are determined as follows:
• 	The fair value of bank and loan borrowings is 
determined by reference to mark–to–market valuations 
provided by the lenders.
• 	The fair value of Retail Eligible Bonds is determined by 
their published market value.
• 	The fair value of the lease liability has been determined 
as the present value of future cash flows discounted 
using the Group’s incremental borrowing rate.
The following financial assets and liabilities are recorded 
in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position at fair 
value which is determined as follows:
• 	The fair value of interest rate derivatives is recorded in 
the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and 
is determined by forming an expectation that interest 
rates will exceed strike rates and discounting these 
future cash flows at the prevailing market rates as at the 
year end.
Fair value hierarchy
The following table provides the fair value measurement 
hierarchy for financial assets and liabilities measured at 
fair value through profit or loss.
The different levels are defined as follows.
Level 1: Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active 
markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Valuation techniques for which the lowest level 
input that is significant to the fair value measurement is 
directly or indirectly observable.
Level 3: Valuation techniques for which the lowest level 
input that is significant to the fair value measurement is 
unobservable.
For assets and liabilities that are recognised in the 
consolidated financial statements on a recurring 
basis, the Group determines whether transfers have 
occurred between levels in the hierarchy by reassessing 
categorisation at the end of each reporting period.
There have been no transfers between levels during the 
year.
30.2 Risk management
The Group is exposed to market risk (including interest 
rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Board of 
Directors oversees the management of these risks. 
The Board of Directors reviews and agrees policies for 
managing each of these risks that are summarised below.

30.3 Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair values of financial 
instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market 
prices. The financial instruments held by the Group that 
are affected by market risk are principally the Group’s 
bank balances along with a number of interest rate swaps 
entered into to mitigate interest rate risk.
The Group’s interest rate risk arises from long–term 
borrowings issued at variable rates, which expose the 
Group to cash flow interest rate risk. Borrowings issued at 
variable rates expose the Group to fair value interest rate 
risk. The Group manages its cash flow interest rate risk 
by using floating to fixed interest rate swaps, interest rate 
caps and interest rate swaps. Interest rate swaps have the 
economic effect of converting borrowings from floating 
rates to fixed rates. Interest rate caps limit the exposure to 
a known level.
30.4 Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will not meet 
its obligations under a financial instrument or customer 
contract, leading to a financial loss. The Group is exposed 
to credit risk from both its leasing activities and financing 
activities, including deposits with banks and financial 
institutions. Credit risk is mitigated by tenants being 
required to pay rentals in advance under their lease 
obligations. The credit quality of the tenant is assessed 
based on an extensive credit rating scorecard at the time 
of entering into a lease agreement.
Outstanding trade receivables are regularly monitored. 
The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date 
is the carrying value of each class of financial asset.
30.5 Credit risk related to trade receivables
Trade receivables, primarily tenant rentals, are presented 
in the Group’s Statement of Financial Position net 
of provisions for impairment. Credit risk is primarily 
managed by requiring tenants to pay rentals in advance 
and performing tests around strength of covenant prior to 
acquisition.
30.6 Credit risk related to financial 
instruments and cash deposits
One of the principal credit risks of the Group arises 
with the banks and financial institutions. The Board of 
Directors believes that the credit risk on short–term 
deposits and current account cash balances is limited 
because the counterparties are banks, who are committed 
lenders to the Group, with high credit ratings assigned by 
international credit–rating agencies.
The list of bankers for the Group, with their latest Fitch 
credit ratings, was as follows:
30.7 Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk arises from the Group’s management of 
working capital and, going forward, the finance charges 
and principal repayments on its borrowings. It is the risk 
that the Group will encounter difficulty in meeting its 
financial obligations as they fall due, as the majority of 
the Group’s assets are investment properties and are 
therefore not readily realisable. The Group’s objective 
is to ensure that it has sufficient available funds for its 
operations and to fund its capital expenditure. This is 
achieved by continuous monitoring of forecast and actual 
cash flows by management.
The table below summarises the maturity profile of 
the Group’s financial liabilities based on contractual 
undiscounted payments.
While the bank borrowings aged liability interest rate 
derivative aged liability within the below table are 
presented separately, the payment obligation of the bank 
borrowings is the net of the two balances.

31. Capital management
The primary objective of the Group’s capital management 
is to ensure that it remains a going concern and continues 
to qualify for UK REIT status.
The Group’s capital is represented by reserves and 
bank borrowings. The Board, with the assistance of 
the Asset Manager and Investment Adviser, monitors 
and reviews the Group’s capital so as to promote the 
long–term success of the business, facilitate expansion, 
deliver a quarterly dividend distribution and to maintain 
sustainable returns for shareholders.
The Group’s policy on borrowings is as follows: the 
level of borrowing will be on a prudent basis for the 
asset class and will seek to achieve a low cost of funds, 
while maintaining flexibility in the underlying security 
requirements and the structure of both the portfolio and 
of Regional REIT.
Based on current market conditions, the Board will target 
Group net borrowings of 40% of Investment Property 
Values at any time. However, the Board may modify the 
Group’s borrowing policy (including the level of gearing) 
from time to time in light of then–current economic 
conditions, relative costs of debt and equity capital, fair 
value of the Company’s assets, growth and acquisition 
opportunities or other factors the Board deems 
appropriate.
The optimal debt financing structure for the Group will 
have consideration for key metrics including: fixed or 
floating interest rate charged, debt type, maturity profile, 
substitution rights, covenant and security requirements, 
lender type, diversity and the lender’s knowledge and 
relationship with the property sector.
32. Operating leases
The future minimum lease payments receivable under 
non–cancellable operating leases in respect of the Group’s 
property portfolio are as follows:
The Group has in excess of 940 operating leases.
The number of years remaining on these operating leases 
varies between 1 and 997 years. The amounts disclosed 
above represent total rental income receivable up to the 
next lease break point on each lease. If a tenant wishes to 
end a lease prior to the break point, a surrender premium 
will be charged to cover the shortfall in rental income 
received.
33. Segmental information
After a review of the information provided for 
management purposes, it was determined that the Group 
has one operating segment and therefore segmental 
information is not disclosed in these consolidated financial 
statements.
34. Transactions with related parties
Transactions with the Directors
The following persons and entities are related parties 
because they have significant influence over the 
reporting entity or are key management personnel or the 
reporting entity.
Directors' remuneration is disclosed within the 
Remuneration Report on page 150 and note 8 to the 
financial statements. Directors' beneficial interests in the 
Ordinary Shares of the Company are disclosed within the 
Directors' Report.
The Asset Manager and Investment Adviser do not meet 
the definition of a related party transaction. Full details of 
the management arrangements are on page 101.
35. Subsequent Events
On 20 February 2025, the Company declared the Q4 2024 
dividend of 2.20pps, which will be paid to shareholders on 
4 April 2025.

The Alternative Investment Fund Managers’ Directive 
(“AIFMD”) requires certain information to be made 
available to investors before they invest in Alternative 
Investment Funds and requires that material changes to 
this information be disclosed in the annual report of each 
AIF. Those disclosures that are required to be made pre-
investment are included within the Initial Public Offering 
(“IPO”) prospectus and subsequent equity capital raise 
prospectuses, which can be found on the Group’s website 
at: www.regionalreit.com. 
Management agreement
In April 2023, ESR Europe LSPIM Limited (formerly ARA Asset 
Management Limited) acquired a majority stake in London 
& Scottish Property Investment Management Limited.
In October 2023, ESR Europe Private Markets Limited 
(formerly ARA Europe Private Markets Limited) was 
appointed as the Company's Investment Adviser.
In August 2024, ESR Europe Investment Management 
Limited was appointed as the Alternative Investment Fund 
Manager (AIFM), replacing Toscafund Asset Management 
LLP.
ESR Europe Investment Management Limited was 
authorised by the UK's Financial Conduct Authority on 1 
August 2024.
Continuing appointment of the AIFM
The Board continually reviews the performance of the 
AIFM. The Board, through its Management Engagement 
and Remuneration Committee, has considered the 
performance of the AIFM and the terms of its engagement. 
It is the opinion of the Board that the continuing 
appointment of the AIFM on the terms agreed is in the 
interests of Shareholders as a whole. The Board believe 
that by calculating the management fee on the basis 
of EPRA NTA, the interests of the Asset Manager and 
Investment Adviser are closely aligned with those of the 
Shareholders.
Principal risks and uncertainties
An explanation of the principal risks and how they are 
managed and the policy and practice with respect to 
financial instruments are contained in note 30 on pages 
200 to 203.
Leverage
Leverage is defined in the AIFMD as any method by 
which the Group increases its exposure, whether through 
borrowing of cash or securities, or leverage embedded in 
derivative positions or by any other means.
Leverage has been measured in terms of the Group’s 
exposure and is expressed as a ratio of net asset 
value. The AIFMD requires this ratio to be calculated 
in accordance with both the Gross Method and the 
Commitment Method. Details of these methods of 
calculation can be found by referring to the AIFMD. In 
summary, these methods express leverage as a ratio of 
the exposure of debt, non-sterling currency, equity or 
currency hedging and derivatives exposure against the 
net asset value. The principal difference between the 
two methods is that the Commitment Method enables 
derivative instruments to be netted off to reflect hedging 
arrangements and the exposure is effectively reduced, 
while the Gross Method aggregates the exposure.
The AIFMD introduced a requirement for the AIFM to set 
maximum levels of leverage for the Group. The Company’s 
AIFM has set a maximum limit of 400 for both the Gross 
and Commitment Methods of calculating leverage.
At 31 December 2024, this gives the following figures:
In accordance with the AIFMD, any changes to the 
maximum level of leverage set by the Group will 
be communicated via the Group’s website to the 
Shareholders.
