Urban warehouses are located in, or close to, population centres and business districts and provide flexible space for many activities. They are used by a wide variety of businesses that need rapid access to end customers and skilled labour. They are generally situated close to main routes into the city. Big box warehouses are typically used for storing and processing goods for regional, national and international distribution and are much larger than urban warehouses. They are often located far from the end customer but on major transport routes (mainly motorways and around ports, rail freight terminals and airports) to allow rapid transit. Data centres house IT infrastructure for building, running and delivering applications and services, including the Cloud and Artificial Intelligence. They are often located close to densely populated areas and major financial centres in clusters known as Availability Zones.

We are focused on the industrial sector where there are long-term structural trends driving occupier demand from a diverse range of business sectors. One of the most modern and sustainable pan-European portfolios focused on the most attractive European markets. A balance sheet with modest leverage and a diverse, long- duration debt profile that provides us with plenty of capacity for investment. Our teams on the ground in each market build close relationships with our customers and other business partners, helping us to drive value and create new opportunities. Our extensive land bank is a rare and valuable asset and an important source of growth, both in terms of the physical assets that it allows us to develop and the rental income that those buildings generate. Supportive structural trends Restricted land availability limits supply response Market-leading pan-European operating platform Exceptional land bank for development Strong balance sheet Prime portfolio of existing assets 3 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information About SEGRO continued All four of these structural trends are having a powerful impact on demand for industrial space, where two or more of them combine the effect is even greater. Long-term structural trends, supporting demand for the spaces we create The digital revolution has led to significant changes in consumer behaviours and in the way people communicate and work. Increased e-commerce penetration across Europe has led to retailers needing to adapt distribution networks to facilitate omni-channel and the growth of logistics to support pure play e-commerce. The explosion of data and adoption of Al is driving expansion of data centre infrastructure across Europe. Why SEGRO is well positioned: – Our portfolio of big box and urban warehouses provides space for both fulfillment and last-mile distribution. – We own the largest hub of data centres in Europe and have a 2.3GW land-enabled power bank focused on Europe’s core Availability Zones. Major cities consistently grow faster than their home countries, which increases demand for housing as well as goods and services to support these larger populations. Warehouses are key to delivering many of these goods and services, yet industrial land is increasingly being used for residential development and other uses (including data centres). Why SEGRO is well-positioned: – Two-thirds of our portfolio is in urban locations and benefits from this structural shortage of supply. – We have an incredibly diverse customer base, many of them providing value-add goods and services. – Our urban customers need to be located close to city centres for rapid access to their end customers and skilled labour.

They allow them to deliver superior customer service, create cost efficiencies and build in resilience; and require modern warehousing in the right locations. Why SEGRO is well-positioned: – We manage one of the largest and most modern warehouse portfolios in Europe, with big box warehouses located along key transportation routes and in major logistics hubs, as well as urban warehouses in major cities. – Our focus on logistics parks and the provision of key infrastructure, such as strategic rail freight interchanges, attracts the most ambitious and innovative businesses. Businesses are increasingly focusing on the impact of their operations on the environment and the buildings that they occupy play an important part in this. Our customers are looking to minimise their own carbon footprints and reduce their overall occupancy costs. Buildings need to be sustainable in the long term and use natural resources efficiently. Why SEGRO is well-positioned: – Our Mandatory Sustainability Policy ensures that we build to the highest sustainability standards. – 76 per cent of SEGRO’s portfolio has an EPC rating of ‘B’ or better and we have an active programme to upgrade older assets when the opportunity arises. – We added a record level of solar to our rooftops during 2024, taking our installed capacity to 123 MW.

This ensures that we think creatively, innovate, explore new ways to serve our customers, challenge market norms, and strive to stay one step ahead of the competition. In this year’s Annual Report & Accounts we have highlighted three assets, one from each of our portfolio segments (urban, big box and data centres), and explore how these spaces that we have created are enabling extraordinary things to happen. Our Purpose in action Learn more about how the extraordinary things our customers are doing on these estates on: page 34 Learn more about how these assets are enabling extraordinary things for all our stakeholders on: page 29 Sustainable growth, thriving economies, and meeting the needs of growing populations rely on optimised and efficient supply chains. SEGRO’s development-led approach enables delivery of sustainable, flexible warehouse space for our diverse range of customers and critical infrastructure to help move goods efficiently. SEGRO Logistics Park East Midlands Gateway (‘SLPEMG’) is a 700-acre site which was transformed, with zero waste to landfill, into a logistics park for the future. Connected by a Strategic Rail Freight Interchange, SLPEMG enables 11 customers and 7,000 workers to move millions of goods and parcels. The on-site rail terminal, operated by Maritime, transports goods across the UK, linked by rail to other strategic rail freight interchanges and major UK ports such as Southampton, Felixstowe, London Gateway and the Channel Tunnel. Every tonne of freight transported by rail emits 76 per cent less carbon compared to road haulage. Transforming supply chains Logistics parks of the future Scan here to see the video www.SEGRO.com/ara24/bigbox 8 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Our Purpose in action continued The rapidly advancing digital economy is driving innovation and global connectivity, with data centres serving as the essential backbone for digital services, including websites, apps, cloud computing, business operations and increasingly Artificial Intelligence. SEGRO is a leading enabler of this critical infrastructure with over 20 years’ experience delivering powered shell warehouses on the Slough Trading Estate. The Trading Estate is now home to 31 data centres (including one under construction), with a headline rent of £55m (8 per cent of the Group), and is Europe’s largest cluster of data centres. Proximity, Power and Planning are the key elements of a successful data centre development strategy and the Trading Estate has all three of these, with the Simplified Planning Zone creating a significant competitive advantage. SEGRO is well placed to continue unlocking the data centre potential that we have in Slough as well as in other key Availability Zones across Europe, with our 2.3GW land-enabled power bank. Growing European cities increase demand for goods and services as well as employment. SEGRO is a leading owner and developer of modern, sustainable urban warehouse space, located on the edge of some of Europe’s largest cities. Our spaces are carefully designed to help enhance our customers’ performance and deliver tangible value for the communities in which they are located. SEGRO Park Berlin Airport epitomises this approach. Located near Berlin Brandenburg Airport, we created a park comprising a mix of light industrial and logistics warehouses, ranging from 500 to 17,000 sq m. The park incorporates sustainable building practices such as photovoltaic systems and market-leading DGNB (German Sustainable Building Council) certification. It is now home to 77 customers and a greater than 2,000 strong workforce serving Berlin and beyond.

Our prime portfolio of modern, sustainable warehouses and data centres, located in the most attractive and supply-constrained markets and managed by our market-leading operating platform, has continued to deliver growth. We have increased the level of contracted rent signed and delivered strong operating metrics, despite the macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions which impacted wider business confidence during parts of 2024. This has been possible due to the application of our clear strategy to drive performance from our existing portfolio, allocate capital into the most profitable development and acquisition opportunities, and maintain an appropriate and efficient capital structure. This consistent strategy has ensured that our business is well-placed to take advantage of an inflection point in occupier markets. We are pleased to report a 5.5 per cent increase in Adjusted earnings per share and we are therefore recommending a 5.4 per cent increase in the total distribution to our shareholders to 29.3 pence for 2024 (2023: 27.8 pence) through payment of a 20.2 pence per share final dividend. Highlights of the year included: – £91 million of new headline rent contracted, including £38 million from rent reviews, renewals and indexation in the existing portfolio as we continue to successfully capture the reversion embedded within it. Lease events in the UK delivered a record 43 per cent average rental uplift from reviews and renewals. – Development completions equating to £37 million of potential headline rent, of which 84 per cent has been secured, expected to deliver a yield on cost of 6.9 per cent. 97 per cent of these projects have been, or are expected to be, certified at least BREEAM ‘Excellent’ (or local equivalent). – Leveraging our local knowledge and strong relationships to acquire £431 million of highly-reversionary assets in core markets with strong growth potential, and recycle £896 million of assets and land which offered less attractive risk-adjusted returns. – Proactive work to source power connections and prepare land to support future data centre development with an increase in our power bank opportunities to 2.3GW. – Continued progress in addressing our carbon footprint. In particular, we reduced the average embodied carbon intensity of our development programme by 4 per cent and doubled our installed solar PV capacity to 123MW. – Almost 1,000 volunteering days delivered from projects associated with our Community Investment Plans (we now have 14 following the addition of plans in Italy and Spain). – £907 million equity raise in February 2024 which provided us significant firepower to invest in profitable growth opportunities in 2024 and as we head into 2025. Scan here to see the video www.SEGRO.com/ ara24/David-Sleath David Sleath Chief Executive 1 Proportionally consolidated figures and metrics: SEGRO owns assets both wholly itself and through stakes in 50-50 joint ventures. In the Financial Statements, the profit from joint ventures is stated as a single figure in the Income Statement and the net asset value of joint ventures is stated as a single equity figure on the Balance Sheet; Note 7 to the Financial Statements provides the component parts of these figures. In operational terms, SEGRO does not distinguish between assets held in joint ventures from those assets which are wholly-owned. Therefore, unless specifically stated, in the Strategic Report, performance metrics and financial figures are stated reflecting SEGRO’s wholly-owned assets and its share of joint venture assets (known commonly as a ‘proportionally consolidated’ basis). Where the Strategic Report refers to the area of a property, it is stated at 100 per cent of the space, irrespective of whether the property is wholly-owned or held in a joint venture. 2 EPRA and Adjusted metrics: The Financial Statements are prepared under IFRS. SEGRO management monitors a number of adjusted performance indicators in assessing and managing the performance of the business which they believe reflect the underlying recurring performance of the property rental business which is the Group’s core operating activity. These include those defined by EPRA as part of their mission to establish consistency of calculation across the European listed real estate sector. Pages 162 to 163 contain more information about the adjustments and the reconciliation of these to IFRS equivalents. SEGRO discloses EPRA alternative metrics on pages 184 to 190. Adjusted NAV per share is in line with EPRA NTA. 3 Percentage valuation movement during the period based on the difference between opening and closing valuations for all properties including buildings under construction and land, adjusting for capital expenditure, acquisitions and disposals.

Our urban warehouse portfolio attracts a highly diverse customer base which provide value-add goods and services and which need to be within easy reach of their customers and skilled employees. These dynamic businesses tend to have greater pricing power, making them less sensitive to short-term macroeconomic factors and more focused on harnessing growth. We experienced good levels of occupier demand during 2024, particularly in the final part of the year. As a result we added new customers in fast-growing sectors such as robotics and pharmaceuticals, and saw existing customers move into larger premises to meet their growth ambitions or into our refurbished and newly developed space to suit their wider business priorities, not least meeting their sustainability ambitions. Our German urban portfolio performed particularly well, with strong demand for our newly developed space in and around some of Germany’s largest cities. Customers located in our UK urban markets have been discerning around their real estate decision making over the past 12 months. Many of them are very location sensitive so have renewed leases on their existing space, whilst others have been expanding. A small number, often lower margin businesses or those who can be more flexible around location, have opted to move out to lower cost more secondary markets but this remains limited. The supply situation in most of our urban environments remains tight, meaning that rental values continue to rise at more sustainable levels than we saw during the pandemic. Land in major European cities remains in short supply and is shrinking, not least as a result of planning regimes which often favour alternative property types, most notably residential, and green belt land remains very difficult to unlock. This has capped the delivery of new speculatively built space, which has helped to keep supply of new space in our chosen sub-markets in-check. The other one-third of our portfolio is big box warehouses, located in key logistics hubs and along major transportation routes, the most strategic locations for customers looking to optimise their supply chains and improve distribution networks. The pandemic years resulted in exceptional demand for this type of space. We were always mindful that the levels of demand seen during this period were likely to be unsustainable and recent macroeconomic and geopolitical conditions have accelerated the normalisation, resulting in lower pre-let leasing volumes during 2024. Despite this, data released recently by Savills indicates that European big box take-up was 4 per cent higher than the pre-pandemic period of 2015–2019. Supply of big box logistics product continued to gradually increase into the first half of 2024 as an elevated amount of new speculatively built space was delivered. This response was stronger in some markets than others: market vacancy rates have increased more in the UK and Poland than in France and Germany, for example, but they remain below historical averages. Lower levels of new construction starts over the past 18 months have meant that additional supply is now being absorbed and vacancy rates have likely peaked across most of our markets. Accordingly, the supply-demand outlook appears set to strengthen from here. Across both our urban and big box markets, our conversations with customers tell us that they are continuing to focus on adapting their businesses for increased levels of e-commerce penetration, optimising their supply chains (manufacturers were the largest takers of space in Europe during 2024) and improving the carbon footprint of their businesses. These structural drivers remain important and should result in an acceleration of occupier activity, particularly as business confidence improves in response to evolving macroeconomic conditions and greater political certainty. Indeed, during the last months of 2024 we saw a pick-up in enquiry levels for both our urban and big box space across all of our markets. Heading into 2025 we therefore have a number of advanced conversations for lettings on existing space and for pre-lets. As a result of these dynamics, we saw continued rental growth for prime industrial space at rates similar to sustainable, pre-pandemic levels, and we expect this to strengthen as occupier demand accelerates. Standing portfolio driving performance, land bank primed and ready to respond to pick up in occupier demand Our focus on Operational excellence has been key to unlocking the reversionary potential within our portfolio, most of which sits within our UK assets. Our prime portfolio and our active approach to managing our estates and working with our customers has helped us capture a 43 per cent uplift on rent reviews and renewals in the UK (34 per cent across the Group) whilst maintaining high levels of retention. We have continued to take back older, urban space when the opportunity arises to refurbish and redevelop, helping to ensure that our portfolio meets the highest standards, including sustainability credentials, which are increasingly important to occupiers. This, combined with the completion of some speculative schemes that we started at the peak of the market, has meant that occupancy has reduced to 94 per cent (2023: 95 per cent), at the lower end of our target 94 to 96 per cent range. Around half of this is within our London portfolio, where we have the most opportunities for such repositioning. We are finding that when we return this newly refurbished space to market, we are capturing significant rental uplifts and letting the space faster, showing that this asset management activity is creating value. Chief Executive’s statement continued External factors that impact our business Our business is affected by both cyclical factors and structural trends. These impact both our occupier markets and the demand for industrial and logistics assets in investment markets. In the ‘Bird’s Eye View’ section of our CEO statement we explain what they meant for our business during 2024 and give some thoughts on how they will shape it going forward. Cyclical factors – Macroeconomic environment – Interest rate cycle – Competitive supply Structural drivers (see pages 4 to 5) – Digitalisation of our economies – Urbanisation – Supply chain optimisation – Sustainability 12 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information We generally choose to develop our big box schemes on a pre-let basis to limit development risk, so reduced pre-let volumes across the market in 2024 have resulted in a lower level of development completions, development spend and new projects than we have seen in recent years. We recently commenced a speculative big box scheme in Dortmund based on the shortage of supply in that region and the encouraging level of enquiries that we are seeing, and, based on the conversations we are having with occupiers in other markets, we expect to see development volumes pick up as the year progresses. We have continued to progress our speculative urban schemes in markets where occupier demand has been more buoyant, for example in German urban markets such as Berlin, Cologne and Düsseldorf. Our development teams have also been working hard on preparing future schemes, including progressing large-scale infrastructure works at our big box developments in Northampton and Radlett. We are also actively progressing the data centre opportunity within our portfolio, working to secure planning and power for the more than 2.3GW of opportunities that we have identified across Europe – the approval of the Simplified Planning Zone on the Slough Trading Estate, with its expanded parameters, will provide a significant competitive advantage in the delivery of several projects. Liquidity in investment markets has improved and asset values appear to have stabilised Inflation falling back towards central bank targets and initial interest rate cuts helped liquidity return to investment markets during 2024 and there continues to be good investor appetite for industrial and logistics assets. This has led to higher investment volumes and has helped yields to stabilise. Prime yields in the UK were flat during 2024 (CBRE prime yield remained at 5.25 per cent throughout the year) and although there was some small further outward yield shift in certain European markets in the first six months of the year, most markets were stable in the second half of the year. (CBRE prime yield France +15 basis points and Germany +10 basis points, all in the first six months of 2024). Finance costs remain elevated which means most debt-backed buyers have been active in the higher yielding end of the market. This has resulted in less capital chasing lower yielding, prime assets. Investors have been selective, focusing on assets in the best locations with the highest sustainability credentials and where there is reversionary potential that can be captured quickly. The outlook for yield and asset valuations is notoriously hard to forecast. The recent ‘higher rates for longer’ narrative has so far not had a discernible impact on investment market liquidity. However, as active portfolio managers, we do not rely on yield compression but aim to create value across the property cycle through asset and portfolio management and driving rental growth. Allocating our capital into the opportunities with the most attractive risk-adjusted returns We remained disciplined in our allocation of capital during 2024. Although quieter pre-let markets across Europe resulted in lower investment into development than anticipated, we took advantage of investment market conditions and attractive pricing to acquire assets in our core markets which offer potential for strong mid-term returns. Our investment teams used their local market knowledge and strong relationships to identify opportunities to acquire high-quality assets in prime markets, where we have less land (and therefore less development opportunity), which complement our existing portfolio and offer strong rental growth potential. We were also agile in our recycling of capital, completing almost £900 million of disposals. Around half of these were sales of assets and land where we had identified special or motivated purchasers, crystallising very attractive profits versus book value. We also sold other assets that we had identified during our annual asset review process as having weaker future returns potential. Chief Executive’s statement continued During the year, we made an all-share offer to acquire Tritax Eurobox plc, an externally managed REIT with a portfolio of high-quality big box warehouses in Continental Europe, whose shares had consistently traded at a significant discount to its net asset value. Although we were unsuccessful in buying the company due to a rival, higher, offer, we instead negotiated a transaction with the eventual purchaser on behalf of our joint venture, SELP, for six assets in Germany and the Netherlands, exchanging contracts in January 2025 and we expect to complete on this transaction later in the first quarter. This is the part of the portfolio over which we had the most conviction and our decision not to counterbid reflects our determination to maintain capital discipline. Balance sheet remains strong with plenty of firepower Our balance sheet is in great shape, with moderate leverage and limited near-term refinancing requirements. In the past six months, we have taken advantage of liquidity in debt capital markets to issue an eight-year €500 million Eurobond from SEGRO and a seven-year Eurobond from SELP at coupons of 3.5 and 3.75 per cent, respectively, which have extended our average debt maturities and had only a modest impact on our 2.5 per cent weighted average cost of debt. We raised £907 million through an equity placing in February 2024, to deploy into the most attractive development and investment opportunities as activity in occupier markets picks up. This, alongside the proceeds of disposals, provides us with significant firepower for continued investment. Recent acquisitions, deliberate portfolio management and our ongoing development pipeline have allowed us to achieve critical mass in most of our markets, which means we will be able to deliver increased operational leverage as we grow our business. We have also been investing in developing our digital capabilities to drive cost efficiency and create a more scalable, technology-enabled platform. Significant value creation opportunity in data centres One area that continues to grow regardless of the macroeconomic environment is the data centre sector, which is being driven by the exponential growth in demand for data as consumers digitalise their day-to-day lives, and companies increasingly use data to drive their businesses and move to cloud-based technology solutions. The growth of generative artificial intelligence is also seeing very significant investment into data centres by so-called ‘hyperscalers’. Demand for data centres comes from two main sources: – Cloud: businesses are increasingly transitioning their IT infrastructure to data centres, ideally with low latency, enabling applications for end user businesses and consumers to be run remotely instead of running software and storing data locally. This demand is typically focused on Availability Zones. – Artificial Intelligence: this is expected to drive significant growth. Many of the large hyperscalers (such as Amazon Web Services, Microsoft and Google) have announced significant investment into their European data centre capacity over recent months. The ‘inference’ (user-interface) element of this demand is likely to focus on key Availability Zones but the ‘generative’ (machine- learning) element can happen in more remote locations where power is more readily available. Supply of new data centres is limited by a lack of power infrastructure, a shortage of land and restrictive planning permissions in key Availability Zones across Europe – which in turn is driving strong rental growth and high land values. We have chosen to focus our data centre investment on key Availability Zones, close to major urban conurbations and aligned with our existing urban footprint, which means that we are positioned to benefit from both growth in the Cloud as well as the ‘inference’ elements of AI that require close proximity to end users. It also means we retain maximum flexibility in this fast-evolving space. 13 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Chief Executive’s statement continued We have been active in this market for over 20 years, mainly providing powered shells to some of the world’s largest data centre operators. Our existing data centre portfolio (including projects under development) currently represents over 0.5GW of capacity and the rental income equates to 8 per cent of our headline rent. Today, the vast majority of this installed capacity is on SEGRO’s Slough Trading Estate which we believe to be the largest hub of data centres in Europe. We have used the knowledge and expertise, and customer relationships developed through the creation of this cluster to identify similar opportunities across our portfolio where we have secured, or believe we can secure, planning and power. The total opportunity set or ‘power bank’ on sites we own where we have, or believe, we can secure power equates to 2.3GW of potential capacity, including the 0.5GW in respect of existing data centres which are operational or under construction. We expect to add to this over time as our teams work hard to secure the necessary power and planning permissions. The Simplified Planning Zone status of the Slough Trading Estate already provides a significant competitive advantage in respect of planning on several of these sites. As we already mentioned, our preferred data centre model to date has been to develop pre-let powered shells: we provide the real estate and arrange, with our partners, the power capacity and our customers fit out and operate or sub-lease the space themselves. All of our lettings have been to co-locators so far, but we are having active conversations with hyperscalers for some of our larger sites. We expect this approach will continue to be used for certain opportunities within our pipeline. However, as the data centre market and our own opportunity set has evolved and grown, we see significant potential to create value through developing fully-fitted data centres, initially working alongside partners who will provide the operational expertise. As always we will take a disciplined approach to our capital allocation choices, seeking to deliver the most attractive risk-adjusted returns on every opportunity. During 2024, we sold a land holding in Continental Europe where we had obtained planning permission and secured a large allocation of power, in a location not aligned with our view of the core Availability Zones. We were able to crystallise a significant profit on cost, whilst taking no development risk. We also realised an attractive 100 per cent profit on development cost from the sale, to an occupier, of two long-leased data centres in Slough with limited medium-term growth potential. We also invested in expanding our pipeline of opportunities by securing and progressing additional power connections across Europe. Committed to creating value for all of our stakeholders Our Responsible SEGRO ambitions remain embedded in the way we do business, and we continue to work hard towards achieving the challenging targets that we have set ourselves. We remain committed to our low-carbon growth goal: reducing the embodied carbon in our development programme, improving the energy efficiency of our buildings and increasing the solar capacity of our portfolio. During 2024 we maintained the improvements in the carbon intensity of our standing assets and reduced the average embodied carbon intensity of our development programme to 318 kgCO2e/sq m (a reduction of 4 per cent versus our new 2023 baseline). We also more than doubled our installed solar capacity to 123MW by installing photovoltaic arrays on existing buildings as well as new developments, and have launched a new Energy Strategy to encourage consistency across the Group and ensure that we can provide the power our customers increasingly need. Recognising that this is a fast-evolving area, we have updated our carbon reduction targets based on the latest guidance, introducing a new long-term science- based target to be net-zero by 2050. 1 SEGRO Logistics Centre Elancourt Politzer 2 Yusen Logistics, SEGRO Logistics Park Northampton 1 2 14 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information We have strong conviction in the enduring nature of the structural trends supporting demand for our space – digitalisation, urbanisation, supply chain optimisation and sustainability – and take confidence from the recent pick up in sentiment.” David Sleath, Chief Executive Officer Our Community Investment Plans (CIPs) continue to grow in number and size, and during 2024 we launched schemes in Italy and Spain, taking the number of plans to 14, with community projects in 21 regions, cities and towns across our portfolio. Our employees, customers, suppliers and other stakeholders worked together to deliver almost 1,000 volunteering days in our local communities. The impact of our CIPs on the communities near our assets is significant and they embed our buildings as local centres of economic success, helping to create employment opportunities for local people and improving the environment and local amenities for local residents. This focus on sharing the long-term benefits of our estates with our local communities positions us as a preferred partner for local authorities and is instrumental in creating future opportunities, demonstrated by the successful renewal of the Simplified Planning Zone in Slough. Our people are vital to our ongoing success and Nurturing talent therefore remains a key area of focus. During 2024 we completed the reshaping of our leadership team and continued to invest in the development of our employees. Within our hiring, at these senior levels and across the broader organisation, we have been deliberate in creating a diverse talent pool and this has helped us make progress against both of our diversity goals, increasing the number of women and ethnic minorities in senior leadership roles by 3 per cent and 1 per cent respectively. We also introduced a range of new family-friendly policies. Positioning our business for long-term success The continued growth and strong operational results produced by our business during 2024, despite the macro environment, has shown that our strategy to focus on the most demand-resilient and supply-constrained markets can deliver consistent results throughout the property cycle. During the peak of the market, which was amplified by the pandemic, occupier and investor demand was exceptionally strong for industrial and logistics, fuelled by a very low interest rate environment which meant that returns were significantly driven by yield compression and elevated levels of development. The current environment is more ‘normal’, so we are focused on executing our long-held strategy to extract the best returns from our existing portfolio and opportunities in our control. We believe that the quality of our portfolio, and the strength of our operating platform – with its significant market experience, local knowledge and strong stakeholder relationships – will deliver stronger risk-adjusted returns than the wider market. This platform, and the people within it, have been vital to our ability to get deals done, create new opportunities and deliver growth for our stakeholders this year and I would like to thank everyone at SEGRO for their hard work and contributions to our performance during 2024. I am proud of what we have achieved, facing challenges head on and constantly innovating to find new ways of getting things done, while keeping one eye on the horizon and ensuring that our business is ready to take advantage of the opportunities that present themselves over the coming years. It is this dedication and focus, that will ensure we continue to deliver on our Purpose of creating the space that enables extraordinary things to happen. Outlook We enter 2025 with confidence in SEGRO’s prospects for further growth. Our portfolio is of irreplicable quality, having been purposefully curated over the past 15 years. Two-thirds of it is located in Europe’s largest cities, with the remaining one-third strategically located near logistics hubs and along key transportation corridors. Our chosen markets have a shortage of modern, sustainable space with low land availability and restrictive planning policies limiting the supply of competing space. We have strong conviction that demand for our space will continue to be supported by powerful, enduring structural trends: data and digitalisation, urbanisation, supply chain optimisation and sustainability. Sentiment in occupier markets is improving and we saw a pick up in occupier activity during the final months of the year, as evidenced by our strong leasing activity in the last quarter. This momentum has carried into the early weeks of 2025, and we take confidence from the positive conversations we are having with our customers across all of our markets. Our portfolio is full of current and future opportunity. We have the potential to: – secure £173 million of additional rental income from our standing portfolio through capturing the existing rent reversion (£118 million) and leasing vacant space (£55 million); – deliver £422 million of new rent from development on our exceptional land bank located in the most attractive markets, with a profitable yield on cost of 7 to 8 per cent; and, – continue delivering compounding annual rental growth on our portfolio in line with our long-standing guidance of 2 to 6 per cent per annum, thus growing rents faster than inflation. Our track record in creating Europe’s largest hub of data centres in Slough, with over 0.5GW of capacity either operational or under construction, has helped us to develop strong relationships with global data centre players, which provide us with unique insights into this exciting, high- growth opportunity. We have built a landbank with exceptional access to 2.3GW of potential power in Europe’s key Availability Zones. As well as building powered shells, we recognise the potential to create significant additional value from the development of fully-fitted data centres in select locations, with projects currently under active consideration. Our business is therefore well-placed for further attractive, compounding growth in earnings and dividends in the years ahead, with significant additional value upside from our data centre pipeline.

Responsible SEGRO priorities (and relevant UN SDGs) Read more in our Responsible SEGRO Report: www.SEGRO.com/responsible-SEGRO/ reports-downloads 21 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Responsible SEGRO continued ESG reporting and ratings We recognise that transparency around our sustainability performance is essential to building trust with our stakeholders. As the wider Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) reporting environment is evolving, we continually monitor our approach to ensure that we are aligned to, and engaged with, the most relevant frameworks in order to provide clear, reliable, and meaningful disclosures to meet the needs of our investors, customers, employees, and communities, whilst demonstrating our performance against our Responsible SEGRO framework. This currently includes reporting against established frameworks including the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures project (TCFD), as well as the National Equality Standard, Parker Review and FTSE Women Leaders. In addition, we expect to report against EU sustainability reporting standards when these become mandatory for us. We also engage with various organisations who review and assess our ESG performance and disclosures. This includes agencies that monitor our disclosures, such as MSCI, who rate us AAA, as well as organisations that require active participation and additional transparency, such as the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), who rate us A. We also participate in indices such as FTSE4Good, who rate us at 3.3 (2.8 sub-sector average). The above are SEGRO’s latest ratings at the time of publication. How we deliver on our Responsible SEGRO goals We have long-held commitments to leadership in health and safety, stakeholder engagement, corporate governance and being a good corporate citizen. Our Responsible SEGRO framework helps us to articulate our sustainability goals and address our stakeholders’ most material concerns. Within this we have focused in on three enduring strategic priorities, which were determined through engagement with our stakeholders. These priorities cover the areas where we believe we can make the greatest business, environmental and social contribution. They are: Championing low-carbon growth Investing in our local communities and environments Nurturing talent For each of these areas we have established challenging targets that are linked to four non-financial KPIs and to the annual bonus for all employees. We report a summary of our progress with these during 2024 in the following section and discuss our priorities for 2025 – more detailed information (along with full datasets) can be found in our 2024 Responsible SEGRO Report. We intend to set additional, more specific, supporting targets as necessary and expect our actions and approach to evolve over time to reflect our achievement, technological change and the priorities of our stakeholders and wider society. 1 SEGRO Park Limeil-Brévannes 2 SEGRO Employment Programme, East London – ELBA employment workshop 2 SEGRO Schools Programme, Slough – Learning to Work student workplace visit 1 2 3 22 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Responsible SEGRO continued Our materiality assessment In 2024, we performed a comprehensive double materiality analysis. This helped us identify and understand two key aspects: first, how our operations affect society and the environment, and second, how sustainability issues create financial risks and opportunities for our business. This dual approach looked at both our impact on the world and how sustainability factors influence our financial performance, and form the basis of our sustainability reporting. Our context: value chain Our stakeholders 1. Our context – Our Business model, and our strategy to apply it, are outlined on page 16. – Our value chain represents the process through which we execute the strategy and where this may affect our stakeholders. 2. Our stakeholders – Our key stakeholders, aligned to our value chain, are outlined in pages 18 to 20. – Primary and secondary research informed our understanding of the impacts on these stakeholders from our business and value chain. 3. Our material impacts, risks and opportunities – Potential impacts, risks and opportunities were identified based on engagement with our stakeholders. – Materiality of identified impacts, risks and opportunities, for both the business and our stakeholders was assessed. 4. Our material areas – Our Executive Committee and Audit Committee monitor and oversee the process to identify material impacts, risks and opportunities. – Material impacts, risks and opportunities were mapped to areas of sustainability that are material for us to disclose information on our activities. The process we followed SEGRO’s key stakeholders are those without whom we simply would not have a business. Relationships with these stakeholders are underpinned by a corporate culture which promotes high standards of business ethics, is focused on a long-term sustainable strategy and which recognises our responsibilities to the environment. Our materiality assessment was designed to consider both positive and negative, and actual and potential, impacts on all affected stakeholders, and that user stakeholders should have sufficient information to allow them to assess SEGRO appropriately from an ESG perspective. The focus of our business in European developed markets means that we do not consider there to be material differences related to the geography of our stakeholders. 1 SEGRO Park Amsterdam Airport 1 Asset management Acquisitions & disposals Development activities Leasing Property renovation & refurbishment Administration & maintenance Funding and investment management Raw materials extraction & transportation Demolition Construction Planning & design Land acquisition Recycling (asset sales) Property acquisition 23 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Responsible SEGRO continued Our material impacts, risks and opportunities Management of standing assets – GHG emissions from customer energy use in our buildings have an actual, negative impact on climate change (gas heating or electricity use from grid) A I – Climate change mitigation – Energy – Climate change adaptation – Buildings inconsistent with our customers’ aspirations on carbon reduction may attract lower rents, longer vacancies and incur higher costs, presenting short-term financial risk to SEGRO R – Capex required to adapt existing buildings to changing climate conditions presents a longer-term financial risk to SEGRO R – Higher emissions and additional demand for energy generation and infrastructure from less energy efficient buildings have an actual, negative impact on the environment and our broader stakeholders; as well as presenting short- and medium-term financial risk to SEGRO due to emerging regulatory/legal energy efficiency requirements resulting in additional capex or lower valuations/rents for less energy efficient buildings A I R – Higher rents or additional sources of revenue from generating low cost, on-site clean energy present short-term financial opportunity for SEGRO O – Provision of local employment opportunities via our value chain (including our customers and development contractors requiring skilled labour) has an actual, positive impact on our affected communities A I – Economic, social and cultural rights Development – Use of virgin materials, and their transport to site, to support our development activity has an actual, negative impact on the environment from materials extraction, in particular through the release of CO2 emissions A I – Raw materials – Increased vehicle movements and noise during development have an actual, negative impact on our affected communities A I – Economic, social and cultural rights Business-wide – Our well-established and employee-driven set of Values, transparent pay, reward and promotion approach, clear policy on flexible working, comprehensive benefits package for all employees, and strong internal communications and feedback processes have an actual, positive impact on our workforce A I – Working conditions – Equal treatment and opportunities – Other work-related rights – Calibration of financial compensation and people policies to ensure gender and ethnic equality, a culture of continuous improvement from on-the-job and externally-provided training and development and a clear code of ethics detailing the rights and responsibilities of all employees have an actual, positive impact on our workforce A I – Our transparent and comprehensive governance framework in line with best practice and accessible management means that suppliers, customers, finance providers, investors, employees and others can engage directly with the appropriate people in the Company and be confident that their relationships will be managed in line with the SEGRO Code of Ethics and local and international laws and regulations, having an actual, positive impact on all stakeholders A I – Corporate culture – Protection of whistleblowers – Corruption and bribery – Supplier relationships – Political engagement Actual Potential P A Positive Negative Impact Risk Opportunity O R I 24 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information SEGRO’s net-zero journey Through the 2015 Paris Agreement, world governments committed to restricting global temperature rise to well-below 2°C above pre-industrial levels and pursuing efforts to limit warming to 1.5°C. In 2018, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change warned that global warming must not exceed 1.5°C to avoid the catastrophic impacts of climate change. As an owner, manager and developer of buildings, we have a significant part to play in tackling this challenge. Championing low-carbon growth is one of our three Responsible SEGRO strategic priorities. We have had our carbon footprint data externally assured annually since 2014. The carbon reduction targets we set in 2021 were approved under the international Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi). The SBTi methodology identifies pathways for companies to reduce the emissions within their value chains to align with 1.5°C pathways. As can be seen in the chart in the bottom right, the two largest contributors to our carbon emissions are energy use in our spaces (our ‘corporate and customer’ carbon emissions) and the energy connected to the materials that we use in our construction and refurbishment projects (our ‘embodied’ carbon emissions). Together these accounted for 86 per cent of our emissions in 2024. Since 2021, we consistently tracked ahead of our targets, achieving significant reductions in both corporate and customer carbon intensity and embodied carbon intensity. SEGRO’s pathway to net-zero The SBTi launched a new ‘Buildings’ framework in 2024; as our existing targets were due for renewal, we have used this framework to update our net-zero targets. Our targets have a baseline of 2023, a near-term target of 2034 and a net-zero target year of 2050. The target trajectories are steeper to 2034, then shallower out to 2050. The near-term 2034 targets are a 81 per cent reduction in corporate and customer emissions intensity and a 58 per cent reduction in the embodied emissions intensity of our developments. Once our 2050 target year is reached, the SBTi target methodology allows for offsetting residual emissions with best practice carbon removals, accounting for a maximum of 10 per cent of target emissions. Creating a new baseline has provided us with the opportunity to bring emission calculation methodologies in line with the latest best practice. This means that the 2023 figures herein are a restatement of our previously reported figures. The detail of these changes can be found in our Responsible SEGRO Report 2024. We are committed to making a commensurate and ambitious contribution to limiting global warming. However, not all of the actions needed to meet our targets are within our control, and carbon accounting methodologies are still evolving. Setting and publicising carbon reduction targets are crucial elements of carbon governance, and we are committed to being transparent about our journey. Key elements of our carbon reduction strategy are presented to the right. Corporate and customer emissions: – Purchase certified renewable electricity for SEGRO’s own use and for those customers for whom we procure energy on their behalf. – Where customers do procure their own energy (the majority of cases), encourage them to procure certified renewable electricity and track uptake – using our ‘green lease’ clauses – Replace fossil fuel heating systems with efficient electrical heating – Install solar panels to generate energy for our customers, optimise this usage with batteries and microgrid technology, and, where grid connectivity allows, feed into the local electricity network – Improve the energy efficiency of our units through construction and refurbishment by targeting an Energy Performance Certificate of B-grade or better Embodied carbon emissions: – Work with our partners to procure and utilise low-carbon materials such as timber and electric arc furnace or recycled steel – Support the development of low-carbon concrete products and utilise them widely as soon as their suitability is proven – Design embodied carbon out of our buildings, changing layouts and using more pre-cast concrete elements.

We focus our carbon reduction activity on the areas which are most material. 86 per cent of our emissions come from our customers and our development programme. A key achievement during 2024 was the establishment of new, science-based, net-zero carbon targets. In doing so we created a new emissions forecasting process, introduced a dynamic Governance process of our carbon management efforts, and transitioned to a powerful new carbon reporting platform to help us to more efficiently manage the thousands of gas and electricity datapoints and to use sophisticated estimation methods to fill any gaps. We also took the opportunity to rigorously review and implement best practice reporting methodologies at the same time. This activity has resulted in the new net-zero targets outlined on the previous page. During 2024 we reduced the average embodied carbon intensity of our development programme by 4 per cent versus the newly created baseline. Our Mandatory Sustainability Policy commits us to carry out embodied carbon assessments for practically all our development projects and we work closely with our suppliers to innovate and remove carbon wherever possible. Having made great strides in corporate and customer carbon reduction between 2020 and 2023 under our old targets, we have seen a 1 per cent increase in our corporate and customer carbon intensity during 2024 under our new target methodology. Our success in bringing forward our data centre pipeline is a key part of this story. Adjusting for data centres, the rest of our portfolio achieved a reduction in carbon intensity of approximately 4 per cent. Our data centre customers are on a journey to net-zero themselves, with commitments to reach 100 per cent renewable electricity by 2030. Our emissions are tracking their publicly stated uptake of renewable electricity tariffs, which is for most not yet at 100 per cent. However, this is consistent with our commitment to an 81 per cent reduction by 2034, and we will continue to work closely with all our customers to do what we can to help them make good progress on that commitment. Beyond our approach to carbon, we also think carefully about the impact of our operations on other natural resources and the local environment. Biodiversity remains an important focus, and our development projects aim to have a positive impact on our local communities. Although water usage is not material for SEGRO, we are careful in our consumption of it and build in features that help our customers use it more efficiently. Finally, the vast majority of our waste is created by our construction and demolition projects. We work carefully with our construction partners to minimise this, for example through ensuring that they maximise reuse opportunities. Key targets and achievements – 4 per cent reduction in the embodied carbon intensity of our developments. – 8 per cent increase in the visibility we have of our customer energy data. – 76 per cent of the portfolio with an EPC rating of B or better (2023: 65 percent). – 97 per cent of our development completions were rated BREEAM ‘Excellent’ or higher. – A record 64 MW increase in our installed solar capacity. – Implemented an annual corporate and customer emissions forecasting process. – Introduced a dynamic Governance process of our carbon management efforts. – Rolled out a powerful new carbon reporting platform. – Drive further reductions in our corporate and customer emissions. – Increase the automation of the retrieval of our customers’ energy data. – Replace gas with efficient low-carbon heat sources. – Work with our supply chain partners to further reduce embodied carbon. – Progress our large-scale solar installation strategy. – Prepare for reporting against the new European Sustainability Reporting Standards.

We are committed to building and nurturing long-term relationships with local organisations that can enable us to have a positive impact in the areas where we have a major presence. We focus on two main areas with our projects: – Education and employment: partnering with local education establishments to help prepare young people for the world of work through our education programme, as well as helping people from disadvantaged or marginalised backgrounds into employment or better jobs. Since its launch in 2022, the programme has engaged over 25,000 young people from diverse backgrounds in the UK, Poland, Germany and France. – Environment: delivering environmental projects that improve the biodiversity of the local area and the health and wellbeing of the local community. Volunteering is a vital part of the success of our Community Investment Plans (CIPs). Our employees, customers and suppliers have proved once again the incredible impact they can have when they come together with a shared goal of improving the lives of local people. During 2024 a total of 437 employees (94 per cent of the workforce) participated, delivering 700 volunteering days. Alongside our employees we had a tremendous response from customers and suppliers, by providing volunteers to mentor and host school visits to their businesses or construction sites, as well as support projects that helped improve the environment for local communities. A total of 154 customers and suppliers, as well as our financial stakeholders, worked in partnership with us. Alongside our CIPs, our buildings also play an important role in supporting our local communities. Our estates provide valuable space for charity partners such as City Harvest, Slough Foodbank and the Felix Project to distribute food that would otherwise be wasted to vulnerable people in our local communities. 1 Employment mentoring programme with East London Business Alliance, UK Investing in our local communities and environments in 2024 Responsible SEGRO continued Key targets and achievements Charitable giving in 2024 £2.3m 2023: £2.5m Young people engaged 10,289 2023: 7,943 25,232 since launch of CIP programme Unemployed people trained 1,197 2023: 1,303 3,280 since launch of CIP programme Unemployed people into employment 349 2023: 347 758 since launch of CIP programme Students mentored by SEGRO employees and customers 140 2023: 89 264 since launch of CIP programme Employee volunteering days 700 2023: 707 Environmental community projects 49 2023: 44 119 since launch of CIP programme Number of Community Investment Plans 14 2023: 12 Read more in our Responsible SEGRO Report: www.SEGRO.com/responsible-SEGRO/ reports-downloads – Community projects are now being delivered in 21 regions, cities and towns across our portfolio. – Major tender process trialled community commitment clauses (results expected in 2025). – The launch of new community investment plans in Italy and Spain. – Employees from our customers and suppliers delivered a record 273 volunteering days. – Signed up to Social Value Portal to measure development impact and CIP programme. – Further increase the number of customers and suppliers supporting the CIP programme. – Expand volunteering opportunities to include stakeholder partners such as local authorities. – Launch a new CIP in St Albans, Hertfordshire. – Undertake performance review of CIP programme to improve community outcomes. Key achievements during 2024: Our priorities for 2025: 1 27 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information We want them to work in a healthy, safe and secure environment so have a comprehensive health and safety training programme and initiatives to support employee wellbeing. We have appropriate support, training and facilities for employees who are disabled or become disabled whilst in our employment. To help us retain the best people we offer competitive compensation packages that include variable compensation, share award and a range of attractive benefits. We want our people to thrive in their roles and offer various training and development opportunities as well as secondments. Particular areas of focus in 2024 included: – Building strong leadership. We completed the significant reshaping of our senior leadership and focused on supporting these leaders as they transitioned into new roles. – Continuing on our journey to build a more diverse and inclusive SEGRO. We are committed to building an inclusive workplace where everyone is treated with fairness and respect, irrespective of gender, ethnicity, age, educational and professional background, religion and beliefs, and sexual orientation. Our focus during 2024 was on building a more diverse workforce that better reflects the communities we are part of. We have increased the number of women in senior leadership roles to 36 per cent (from 33 per cent in 2023) and have ambitions to go further. We have set ourselves a target to have women in 40 per cent of our senior leadership roles by end 2025, and 15 per cent representation of people identifying as being from an ethnic minority group by the end of 2027. The 466 people that we employ across nine countries are vital to SEGRO’s ongoing success. We are therefore committed to attracting talented people to work with us and creating a workplace where everyone can thrive. Creating the space for extraordinary things to happen is as true for our people as it is for our assets. We expect our people to follow the highest standards of business conduct in their daily work and this is set out in our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. – Celebrating our strong culture. Our people tell us they enjoy working at SEGRO. During 2024 we focused on embedding our Values and Behaviours into all of our people processes, including changes to how we think about performance. – Enhancing our colleague proposition. We launched new and enhanced family-friendly policies, which are designed to support our people during key moments of their lives. UK Gender and Ethnicity Pay and Bonus Gap Whilst SEGRO continues to report a gender pay gap above that of the National Average, the pay gap is improving. Both mean and median ordinary pay gaps are decreasing each year, as well as the bonus gap compared to last year’s analysis. This can be directly attributed to the increased representation of women in more senior roles. Whilst the mean ethnicity pay gap has increased in 2024, the median has reduced to 19.9 per cent (a 2.5 per cent decrease). The ethnicity bonus gap has also reduced on both a mean and a median basis. As SEGRO continues to progress towards its target of 40 per cent female representation, and 15 per cent representation of those identifying as being from an ethnic minority group, these gaps should continue to narrow. 2024 2023 Gender pay gap (mean) 39.2%1 40.2%2 Gender bonus gap (mean) 68.4% 77.2%2 Ethnicity pay gap (mean) 30.5%3 24.1% Ethnicity bonus gap (mean) 63.0% 70.0% 1. This is an adjusted figure that excludes a small number of one-off payments. Including these further reduces the mean gender pay gap to 30.3%. 2. 2023 mean gender pay and bonus gap numbers have been restated. Previously reported numbers (gender pay gap at 32.9% and gender bonus gap at 73.6%) incorrectly excluded two male Executive Directors. 3. This is an adjusted figure that excludes a small number of one-off payments. Including these increases the mean ethnicity pay gap to 37.4%. Say it like it is We always give honest feedback, keep our promises and keep messaging clear and simple. Stand side by side We work together and put the interests of our business ahead of our own. We go out of our way to support each other and share knowledge across the business. If the door is closed… If one route is closed to us, we always find another way. We challenge ourselves to think differently and search for new ways to succeed. Keep one eye on the horizon We constantly look ahead to ensure we are successful in the future. We do this in part by taking an active interest in our customers and their customers. Does it make the boat go faster? We keep things simple and continue to look for improvements to how we work.

Responsible SEGRO is embedded into the day-to-day running of our business and all of our decision making. This helps us to ensure that our business remains fit for the future and delivers long-term benefits for all of our stakeholders. Our Purpose in action Our Community Investment Plans have been created to ensure that the communities around our assets thrive, with a focus on projects that create education and employment opportunities as well as help to improve the local environment. At SEGRO Park Berlin Airport we are working with Ackerhelden machen Schule to educate the next generation with a raised vegetable garden that will provide organic food for children’s homes in Berlin and teach them about the ease of preparing nutritious meals. We are also working with SOS Children Villages Berlin and some of the customers on the estate to educate young and disadvantaged adults about the world of work. These businesses open their doors for tours and introductions to the types of jobs and apprenticeships they offer. Finally, in collaboration with Plant-my-Tree we planted 1,000 trees in a forest outside of Berlin. Reducing embodied carbon emitted by our development programme will be key in achieving our net-zero targets and is particularly important in our logistics parks that involve large infrastructure works, like at SEGRO Logistics Park East Midlands Gateway. The 700-acre site was former farmland which required levelling and this was completed with zero waste transported offsite. Instead, the earthworks created large bunds that surround the estate and help to shield local communities. 300 acres of the site remains a public Country Park and includes 14km of hedgerow, 17km of pathways and 50,000 trees. All of the buildings were designed to the highest sustainability standards and embodied carbon calculations helped us to reduce the carbon emitted during their development. Our customers’ carbon emissions form part of our carbon footprint and we are actively trying to reduce them. This is particularly important for our data centre customers whose operations require a significant amount of electricity. We design our data centre shells to the highest sustainability standards, providing our customers with energy efficient buildings bespoke to their requirements. We introduced green lease clauses in 2023 which require our customers to commit to securing renewable energy tariffs. Our major data centre customers are on their own net-zero journey (with the Climate Neutral Data Centre Pact committing them to 100 per cent green electricity by 2030). Most of the data centres on the Slough Trading Estate use air cooling so are not heavy users of water, making the sourcing of renewable power even more important.

They drive the internal management of the business, and some are used to determine how management and employees are remunerated. Financial All our financial KPIs are based on proportionally consolidated metrics incorporating our share of joint ventures and associates. 1. The TPR has been calculated independently by MSCI Real Estate in order to provide a consistent comparison with an appropriate MSCI benchmark. It is calculated as the change in capital value, less any capital expenditure incurred, plus net income, expressed as a percentage of capital employed over the period concerned for standing investments held throughout the year, excluding land. Description TSR measures the change in our share price over the year, assuming that dividends paid are reinvested. This reflects our commitment to delivering enhanced returns for our shareholders through executing our strategy over the medium term. TSR is a key metric used in setting the long-term incentive plan remuneration for both the Executive Directors and senior managers. Description TPR is the ungeared combined income and capital return from our portfolio of standing investments held throughout the year. It is an important measure of the success of our strategy in terms of asset selection and management. MSCI Real Estate prepares the calculation, as well as providing benchmark TPR data for similar properties in their wider universe. We aim to outperform the benchmark over the long term. Details on how TPR impacts short- and long-term incentives are provided on pages 123 to 131. Description TAR is the growth in Adjusted NAV per share plus dividends paid, expressed as a percentage of Adjusted NAV per share at 31 December 2023. It measures the return on capital and is a key metric used in setting the long-term incentive plan remuneration for both the Executive Directors and senior managers. Our performance TSR was -18.3 per cent, compared with -12.4 per cent for the FTSE 350 Real Estate index. This reflects a combination of the 28.2 pence dividend (19.1 pence 2023 final dividend and 9.1 pence 2024 interim dividend) paid during the year, and a decrease in the share price from 886.4 pence at 31 December 2023 to 701.2 pence at 31 December 2024. The majority of this underperformance happened in the last quarter. Our performance The TPR of the Group’s standing assets held throughout 2024 was 5.2 per cent (2023: -0.5 per cent). The UK portfolio generated a TPR of 5.9 per cent, behind the benchmark calculated by MSCI Real Estate UK All Industrial Quarterly of 8.3 per cent. The TPR of our Continental Europe portfolio was 4.0 per cent. Benchmark data for Continental Europe will be received later in the year. Our performance The TAR for the Group was 3.1 per cent (2023: -3.3 per cent). This performance reflects a combination of a flat Adjusted NAV at 907 pence and the 28.2 pence dividend (19.1 pence 2023 final dividend and 9.1 pence 2024 interim dividend) paid during the year.

It is the primary determinant of the level of the annual dividend. IFRS EPS includes the impact of realised and unrealised changes in the valuation of our assets, which can often mask the underlying operating performance. The reconciliation between Basic EPS and Adjusted EPS can be found in Note 12(i) on page 161. Description The headline annualised rent contracted during the year less income lost from takebacks. There are two elements: to grow income from our standing assets by reducing vacancy and increasing rents from lease renewals and rent reviews; and to generate new rent by developing buildings, either on a pre-let or speculative basis. Rent from acquisitions is not included. Description Borrowings as a proportion of our portfolio value, including joint ventures and associates at share. The timing of investment decisions and disposals, as well as the movement in the value of our assets, may cause the LTV to fluctuate. We believe that REITs with lower through-cycle leverage offer a lower risk and less volatile investment proposition for shareholders. Our performance Adjusted EPS increased by 5.5 per cent to 34.5 pence during the year, reflecting higher rental income from our standing assets and new income from acquisitions and developments, partially offset by higher financing costs. Our performance In total, we generated £56 million of net new annualised rent during the year (2023: £65 million). The decrease was driven by a lower number of pre-lets signed during the year (£20 million versus £27 million in 2023) as occupier sentiment was impacted by the macroeconomic environment and also due to a higher level of takebacks. Our performance Our LTV ratio reduced to 28 per cent during 2024. With the value of our portfolio broadly unchanged during the period, this was mostly due to our £907 million equity placing in February and a lower level of net investment due to a higher number of asset and land disposals. This gives us plenty of liquidity to fund both visible investment and potential opportunities that may arise.

The continued high satisfaction rate reflects our focus on communication, being responsive and understanding the needs of our customers and is particularly pleasing given the cost pressures that some of them are under (including rental increases). Our performance Our 2024 employee engagement score was 86 per cent. 95 per cent of our people responded and 87 per cent of employees said that they are proud to work at SEGRO. 89 per cent of employees believe that all people are valued at SEGRO, regardless of gender, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation or background. Our performance During 2024 we delivered 700 employee volunteering days. 437 employees (94 per cent of the workforce) did at least one day of volunteering. Alongside this 154 customers, suppliers and financial stakeholders delivered a further 273 days.

We have visibility of 87 per cent of the energy use from our buildings by floorspace. For buildings where we do not receive data we have estimated energy use. We established new science-based targets during 2024 in line with the new ‘Buildings’ framework. We now have a near-term target to reduce the intensity of our corporate and customer emissions by 81 per cent by 2034 (versus the new 2023 baseline) and to be net-zero by 2050. Description Under standard market lease terms we do not have automatic visibility of customer energy usage data. We recognise the importance of having good visibility of this data so we can accurately assess our Scope 3 emissions and help our customers to reduce their own carbon footprint as well as improving their energy efficiency. We are therefore proactively engaging with our customers, requesting access to this data and have introduced green clauses requiring energy use visibility (as well as a commitment to secure renewable energy tariffs where possible) to all new leases. What it is The largest source of carbon emissions within our control is the embodied carbon in our newly developed buildings. We established new science-based targets during 2024 in line with the new ‘Buildings’ framework. We now have a near-term target to reduce embodied carbon intensity by 58 per cent by 2034 (versus the new 2023 baseline) and to be net-zero by 2050. We calculate this metric based on completed developments over the past two years for which a life cycle assessment has been completed. Our performance Our corporate and customer carbon intensity increased slightly to 36.4 kgCO2e/sq m during 2024, versus the new restated 2023 baseline of 36.1 kgCO2e/sq m. Whilst we reduced emissions in a large part of the portfolio, we saw a significant increase in emissions from our data centre customers. Data centre operators are on their own net-zero journey with commitments to reach 100 per cent renewable energy by 2030, we will continue to work closely with them to ensure they deliver on that commitment. Our performance The visibility of our customers’ energy use improved to 87 per cent (2023: 81 per cent) of our total property footprint by area. Our performance The average embodied carbon intensity in our development programme was 318 kgCO2e/sq m reflecting a 4 per cent improvement from our new 2023 baseline. We reduced this by trialling low carbon or recycled materials, including concrete, steel and timber across multiple projects.

Our Purpose in action Our urban warehouse estates are home to an incredibly diverse array of businesses who use our flexible and sustainable space to service growing local populations. SEGRO Park Berlin Airport is home to 77 customers from 23 different sectors, serving the city’s 4 million residents as well as supporting Brandenberg airport. Our customers include: an event and advertising company FONTLINE Werbung & Beschriftung who needed space for their large printing machines but also easy access to the city where their customers’ events take place; Japanese food manufacturer JFC, who provide fresh food and groceries to restaurants and shops, and; sustainability conscious Swaprad, who provide Berlin residents with e-bikes on a monthly subscription. Maersk is one of our largest customers at SEGRO Logistics Park East Midlands Gateway. We completed a 64,000 sq m warehouse for them in 2023 and during 2024 delivered a 14-acre container depot. These spaces, along with the strategic rail freight interchange, form a ‘Centre of Excellence’ which has allowed Maersk to integrate UK supply chains, connecting logistics for both import and export from one source. Easy access to major ports, a central location in the UK’s ‘golden triangle’ and the freeport zone helps to ensure goods can move into the UK at speed, with the opportunity to make secondary decisions on future moves as market situations dictate. This provides Maersk’s customers with flexibility and control and helps them maximise revenues and reduce costs. SEGRO is a trusted development partner for some of the world’s largest data centre co-locators, including VIRTUS Data Centres, the UK’s leading data centre company. VIRTUS commenced operations at their first data centre on the Slough Trading Estate in 2014 where it has now its largest UK campus, including six separate state-of-the-art facilities, totalling almost 100MW of IT load. We completed the most recent building during 2024, delivering a bespoke multi-storey shell totalling 18,700 sq m of floor space that is capable of delivering 21MW of IT load. The building meets the highest standards of performance and efficiency and has been certified BREEAM ‘Excellent’. It is the fifth building that our specialist team has completed for VIRTUS on a pre-let basis in the past seven years.

Transaction volumes have, however, remained low and there has been a small amount of further yield expansion in some Continental European markets (mostly in the first six months of the year) but this has been mostly offset by rental growth. As a result, we have seen positive asset revaluations in some of our markets for the first time since 2022, and only small declines in others (most of which happened in the first half of the year). The Group’s property portfolio was valued at £17.8 billion at 31 December 2024 (£20.3 billion of assets under management). The portfolio valuation, including completed assets, land and buildings under construction, increased by 1.1 per cent (after adjusting for capital expenditure and asset recycling) during the year, compared to a decline of 4.0 per cent in 2023 (H1 2024: 0 per cent, H2 2024: +1.0 per cent). The increase in the valuation of our portfolio primarily comprises a 0.9 per cent increase in assets held throughout the year (2023: 4.5 per cent decline), reflecting a 3.2 per cent increase in our valuer’s estimate of the market rental value (ERV) of our portfolio (2023: 6.0 per cent increase) as well as development profits and the benefit of our asset management initiatives, partly offset by a modest amount of yield expansion, mostly in our Continental European markets. Assets held throughout the year in the UK increased in value by 1.8 per cent (2023: 3.3 per cent decrease), underperforming the MSCI Real Estate All Industrial Quarterly Index which increased by 3.6 per cent over the same period. The underperformance was due to our weighting towards high-quality, lower yielding prime assets which, through the cycle, we would expect to outperform due to their higher rental growth prospects. The net true equivalent yield applied to our UK portfolio was 5.3 per cent, 10 basis points higher than at 31 December 2023 (5.2 per cent). Rental values improved by 3.7 per cent (2023: 4.9 per cent). Assets held throughout the year in Continental Europe decreased in value by 0.8 per cent (2023 6.4 per cent decrease) on a constant currency basis, reflecting a combination of 20 basis points of yield expansion to 5.6 per cent (31 December 2023: 5.4 per cent) and rental value growth of 2.3 per cent (2023: 7.9 per cent). Portfolio update 1 Percentage valuation movement during the period based on the difference between opening and closing valuations for all properties including buildings under construction and land, adjusting for capital expenditure, acquisitions and disposals. The valuation movement cannot be directly derived from the Financial Statements and is calculated to be comparable with published MSCI Real Estate indices against which SEGRO is measured. Table 3 on page 185 provides a reconciliation to the Financial Statements. Growth in rent roll and portfolio value Supply and demand in our occupier markets remains in balance, and we are making significant progress in capturing the embedded reversion within our portfolio. We are witnessing a return of liquidity to investment markets and continue to identify attractive opportunities to deploy capital, both through asset acquisitions and our profitable development pipeline, leveraging our exceptional land bank.

However, the availability of modern and sustainable space remains limited across our chosen markets. This helped us to grow the rental income on our portfolio, by increasing the rents on our existing space and through our development programme, both of which contributed to income and earnings growth. During 2024, we contracted £91 million of new headline rent, ahead of the £88 million contracted in 2023. We added £38 million of net new rent from our existing portfolio (2023: £30 million). This comprised £32 million on new lettings (2023: £16 million) and £38 million from the capture of reversion (the difference between in-place and market rents) on rent reviews and renewals, and from inflation-related uplifts in index-linked leases (2023: £35 million), offset by rent lost from space returned which was higher during 2024 at £32 million (2023: £21 million), mainly due to the takeback of three units in SEGRO Park Enfield, and the insolvency of a large customer in Park Royal. These takebacks create opportunities to drive value from our prime- located estates: an opportunity to capture reversion earlier than expected (SEGRO Park Enfield) by leasing the space at a higher rate; and an opportunity to create income growth from redeveloping or refurbishing a well-located unit in Park Royal, West London. We signed £20 million of headline rent from pre-let agreements and lettings of speculative developments prior to completion, compared to £27 million in 2023. The pre-lets signed during 2024 included two big box warehouses in the UK (our first pre-let at SEGRO Park Northampton Gateway and another unit at SmartParc SEGRO Derby) and smaller units in Italy and Germany for retailers, manufacturers and third-party logistics operators. As a result of this activity, rent roll growth which reflects net new headline rent from existing space (adjusted for takebacks of space for development), take-up of developments and pre-lets agreed during the period, was £56 million (2023: £65 million). At 31 December 2024, our portfolio generated passing rent of £665 million, rising to £727 million once rent free periods expire (‘headline rent’) over the next 12 months. What to expect from our portfolio in 2025 Forecasting yields over any future period is notoriously difficult given the multitude of economic and financial drivers (particularly interest rates and credit spreads), most of which are outside our direct control. We do not need yield shift to deliver continued growth in the portfolio. The fundamentals for our sector remain strong, with occupier demand supported by structural drivers and limited supply, which leaves us optimistic about the prospects for further rental value growth. Investors clearly agree as industrial and logistics investment markets have recovered more quickly than wider real estate assets, although investors are being selective about where and in what they invest. We expect that our active approach to asset management will lead to our high-quality, modern and sustainable portfolio to outperform the wider industrial and logistics market on a long-run basis. In terms of rent roll, we expect this to increase through leasing space currently vacant or under refurbishment, the further capture of reversion on the existing portfolio and by signing further pre-lets in response to strengthening occupier demand. We have the potential to more than double our rent roll over the coming years through our active asset management of the existing portfolio and the build out of our high-quality land bank. Unrealised gains and losses on whole portfolio as at 31 December 2024 (£m) Annualised rent potential as at 31 December 2024 (£m) Performance review continued 36 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Taking a disciplined approach to capital allocation is key to delivering long-term outperformance. We use our in-depth knowledge of our markets and our customer base to inform portfolio positioning, and we adapt our approach to capital deployment depending on our assessment of the property cycle and other external factors. We anticipate that, in a stable yield environment, our portfolio is capable of delivering a 9 per cent or higher unlevered total return, based on its income (equivalent yield of 5.4 per cent) and rental growth (2 to 6 per cent), plus uplift from development (yield on cost 7 to 8 per cent). Deploying capital into the most profitable development opportunities and taking advantage of more liquid investment markets to acquire prime assets During the year we invested £494 million into our development pipeline, which comprised £471 million (2023: £527 million) in development spend (including £138 million for infrastructure) and £23 million on new land acquisitions, mostly of smaller plots of land that unlock redevelopment opportunities on existing sites. We took advantage of some attractively priced opportunities in the investment markets, identified by our local teams, to acquire a number of standing assets during 2024, which we believe offer attractive risk-adjusted total returns through a mix of the in-place income and future rental growth. These included: – a super-prime, highly-reversionary estate in the supply-constrained north London market which neighbours SEGRO Park Enfield; – a high-quality urban warehouse scheme in the UK Midlands, a market with a fast-growing economy and limited supply, and; – four modern, sustainable logistics assets in attractive markets in the Netherlands, with strong rental growth potential and where available land supply is very limited. The consideration for the asset acquisitions was £431 million, reflecting a blended topped-up initial yield of 4.4 per cent and reversionary yield of 5.9 per cent. We expect these assets to deliver a blended average unlevered Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of around 9 per cent over the next 10 years assuming a stable yield environment. Well-executed disposal programme crystallising attractive profits Our disposal programme is always based upon a rigorous annual review, asset by asset, of expected performance. Through this we seek to identify assets which are likely to offer weaker risk-adjusted returns compared to the wider portfolio. On top of this, our teams stay close to the investment market to identify motivated or special buyers who are likely to offer higher pricing than our own assessment of value, thus creating opportunities for profitable disposals. As investment market liquidity improved in 2024, we were able to take advantage by disposing of £896 million of assets and land to realise profits and release capital to reinvest in our business. These included: – an older West London estate that we had been positioning for redevelopment, to a purchaser who intends to convert the site into a mixed use scheme in the longer-term and who paid a premium to industrial land value; – a portfolio of recently-developed, big box logistics assets in Italy with limited medium- term rental growth potential due to capped lease rental uplifts; – big box assets in the UK, France and Germany in slightly weaker locations and where we have lower conviction over future returns potential; and – generating a significant profit through the sale of a plot of land in Europe to a hyperscaler, and selling two powered shell data centres adjacent to the Slough Trading Estate to the occupier. The consideration for the asset disposals was £786 million, reflecting a blended topped-up initial of 4.6 per cent, equating to £38 million of annualised rental income (at share). We crystallised over a 10 per cent IRR on the disposals of assets developed by SEGRO in recent years. The land disposals totalled £110 million and combined with the asset disposals they generated a 9 per cent gain on book values versus 31 December 2023. What we said we would do We said that we would continue to take a disciplined approach to capital allocation, focusing the majority of our investment on our development pipeline and making strategic asset acquisitions if and when the opportunity arose. What we achieved in 2024 We invested £925 million into our portfolio during the year. We have continued to prioritise capital deployment into the most profitable development opportunities, mostly on land that we already own. We invested £471 million into development capex to build out our land bank, and we also acquired £23 million of land. With liquidity returning to investment markets we also leveraged our strong local network and relationships to make £431 million of asset acquisitions in core markets, and continued our asset recycling programme, as well as finding special purchasers for some assets and land that helped crystallise attractive profits. These disposals totalled £896 million. What to expect in 2025 We will continue to take the same disciplined approach during 2025, preferring mostly pre-let led development on our attractive land bank but continuing to consider unique asset or land acquisition opportunities that may arise. We expect to dispose of around 2 per cent of the portfolio, within the range of our normal levels of capital recycling but adapting the overall volume of disposals to market conditions.

They ensure that we deploy capital into the most profitable opportunities and into markets with the greatest long-term return potential, execute on our pipeline efficiently and safely, and build to the highest construction and sustainability standards. Development completions delivered £37 million of headline rent Development completions added 374,700 sq m of new space to the portfolio during 2024, generating £31 million of headline rent, with a potential further £6 million when the remainder of the space is let. The yield on total development cost (including land, construction and finance costs) is expected to be 6.9 per cent when fully let. We completed 294,700 sq m of big box warehouse space, including our first units at SEGRO Park Coventry, a further unit at SmartParc SEGRO Derby and big box units for third-party logistics operators and manufacturers in Italy, Spain and Poland. We completed 80,000 sq m of urban warehouses, including a data centre on the Slough Trading Estate and schemes in Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Paris and Warsaw. The majority of these were developed speculatively and almost half of the rent has already been secured. Reducing embodied carbon in our development programme is critical to helping us improve our carbon footprint. During 2024 we created new science-based targets, aligned with the new ‘Buildings’ framework, and our new embodied carbon pathway has both a near-term target to reduce embodied carbon by 58 per cent by 2034 versus the 2023 baseline, and a target to be net-zero by 2050. We reduced the embodied carbon intensity of our developments by 4 per cent to 318 kgCO2e/sq m during the year (2023: 331 kgCO2e/sq m). All of our eligible development completions during 2024 have been, or are expected to be, accredited at least BREEAM ‘Very Good’ (or local equivalent), with 97 per cent ‘Excellent’ or ‘Outstanding’. £51 million of headline rent currently under development or due to start shortly At 31 December 2024, we had development projects approved, contracted or under construction totalling 400,500 sq m, representing £145 million of future capital expenditure to complete, £46 million of annualised gross rental income and a 8 per cent yield on total development cost when fully occupied. 50 per cent of this rent has already been secured (2023: 62 per cent) due to a lower level of pre-let schemes and our speculative, mostly, urban pipeline. This includes schemes in Germany and France where we are responding to strong local demand which we have experienced on existing assets. In the UK, we have 137,100 sq m of space approved or under construction. Within this are two schemes on the Slough Trading Estate, a multi-let industrial unit and a multi-storey powered shell data centre, as well as our first big box warehouse at SEGRO Logistics Park Northampton. In Continental Europe, we have 263,400 sq m of space approved or under construction. This includes urban warehouses in the supply- constrained markets of Paris, Frankfurt, Berlin, Düsseldorf and Cologne. We also have big box warehouses under construction in Germany, Italy and Spain. We have factored current construction and financing costs into the returns for our future development projects. Build costs have been stable across most of our markets during 2024 and in some regions have started to see construction tenders coming in at reduced prices. We expect to be able to develop at a margin over the valuation yields on equivalent standing assets of at least 150 to 200 basis points, meaning that development remains a profitable way of growing the rent roll. 1. The 2023 figures are a restatement of previously reported figures and are line with the methodology of our new Science Based Target. What we said we would do We expected to continue to develop out our land bank during 2024 and anticipated investing approximately £600 million in development capex, including £150 million of infrastructure expenditure. What we achieved in 2024 We completed 374,700 sq m of space, capable of delivering £37 million of new headline rent, delivering a yield on cost of 6.9 per cent when fully let. What to expect in 2025 We expect to invest approximately £500 million in development capex during 2025, including £150 million of infrastructure related to our big box logistics parks. The yield on cost for our development programme is expected to be between 7 and 8 per cent.

We expect to commence these ‘near-term’ projects within the next six to 12 months. These projects total 39,300 sq m of space, equating to approximately £45 million of future capital expenditure and £5 million of potential annual rent. £476 million of future potential rent from land bank and options Our land bank identified for future development (including the near-term projects detailed above) totalled 1,027 hectares as at 31 December 2024, valued at £1.6 billion, roughly 9 per cent of our total portfolio value. This includes £619 million of land acquired for future redevelopment but which is currently income producing, reducing the holding costs until development can start (equating to £10 million of annualised rent). We estimate our land bank can support 3.2 million sq m of development over the next five to seven years. The estimated capital expenditure associated with the future pipeline is approximately £3.4 billion, capable of generating £376 million of gross rental income, representing a yield on total development cost (including land and notional finance costs) of between 7 and 8 per cent. Within this land bank are sites that SEGRO has identified as suitable for data centre development and there is further potential from the redevelopment of existing assets which is not included in these pipeline numbers. The data centre opportunity within our portfolio equates to more than 2.3GW of potential additional capacity across the UK and Continental Europe. Land acquisitions (contracted but subject to further conditions) and land held under option agreements are not included in the figures above, and these represent significant further development opportunities. These include sites for big box warehouses in the UK as well as in Italy and Poland. They also include urban warehouse sites in East and West London and in Paris. Those we expect to exercise over the next two to three years are for land capable of supporting almost 1 million sq m of space and generating over £100 million of headline rent, for a blended yield of 7 to 8 per cent. The options are held on the balance sheet at a value of £17 million (including joint ventures and associates at share). All of the figures relating to our land bank and options, other than the current value, are indicative, based on our current expectations, and are dependent on our ability to secure pre-let agreements, planning permissions, construction contracts and on our outlook for occupier conditions in local markets. 1 SEGRO Logistics Park Poznań Performance review continued 1 Further details of our completed projects and development pipeline are available in the 2024 Full Year Property Analysis Report, at: www.SEGRO.com/investors A zero-tolerance approach to poor health & safety Health and safety is central to all of our business activities and it is our responsibility to ensure that we provide and promote a healthy, safe and secure environment in which our people can work, extending throughout our supply chain, and in particular to our development projects. We aim to achieve our high standards through a combination of risk mitigation, training and promoting a widespread awareness of health and safety. We only want to work with businesses that share our approach of zero- tolerance of poor health and safety. We require all of our suppliers to confirm that they meet our Health and Safety Standards, and we undertake particularly rigorous assessments of those companies working on our development sites. We support our contractors by providing additional guidance, signage and undertake health and safety visits of all our development sites through the life of each project. We also facilitate the sharing of best practice across the industry though our Contractor Forums. This approach also extends to the ongoing day-to-day life of our estates, many of which are accessed by both our customers and the public. We factor this into the design, mitigate risks and provide training to raise awareness. Whenever incidents occur we fully investigate to understand the causes and disseminate learnings across the Group, including the Board and Executive Committee, to ensure that we (and where appropriate third-parties) respond and improve our processes where necessary. The accident incident rate decreased during 2024, following the implementation of our new and enhanced safety management system. All SEGRO employees, including contractors, are included in our health and safety metrics, which are reported monthly, quarterly and annually to all leadership groups, including the Board. Accident incident rate: 0.46 2023: 0.93 39 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Performance review continued What we said we would do We expected occupier demand to remain strong, but at more normalised levels to the pandemic years. We anticipated that rental growth would continue, supported by this demand and the continued shortage of supply in our chosen markets. What we achieved in 2024 Our focus on Operational excellence and commitment to excellent customer service helped us to deliver another strong year of rent roll growth during 2024. We made great progress capturing reversion and kept occupancy high, despite taking back some space in London for refurbishment and redevelopment to very high sustainability standards. What to expect in 2025 We have a unique portfolio, focused on Europe’s strongest industrial and logistics markets. Our active asset management approach ensures that it will continually evolve to provide high-quality, modern space appealing to the widest variety of customers, thereby increasing rental levels. In 2025, we will continue to focus on providing excellent customer service and to capture the reversion inherent in our leases which reflects the quality of our buildings. We will continue to take advantage of leases coming to an end on some of our older buildings to refurbish them, bringing them up to the high environmental standards our customers and other stakeholders expect.

Through the internal management of our portfolio, we build strong and meaningful relationships with our customers and other business partners, and actively manage our assets to generate long-term outperformance. Strong and diversified customer base Understanding our customers and their evolving needs is crucial to the success of our business. The insights that we gain from these partnerships help us to shape our portfolio and ensure that our buildings are fit for the future and suitable for occupier’s evolving needs. Our customer base remains well diversified, reflecting the flexibility of warehouse space and that two-thirds of our portfolio is in urban locations. Our top 20 customers account for 33 per cent of total headline rent. Amazon remains our largest customer, although its share has reduced to 5 per cent of our total rent roll as a result of the recycling activity during the year. Customers from the transport and logistics and manufacturing sectors were the largest takers of our space during 2024, as they continued to focus on prioritising efficiency, resilience and sustainability into their operations. This was closely followed by the technology, media and telecoms sector, which was driven by data centre operators taking additional space to keep up with increased corporate and consumer demand. Our urban spaces continue to be in high demand by a large range of businesses who provide value-added goods and services to nearby growing populations. The health of our customer base remains strong: rent lost due to insolvency was £9 million (2023: £3 million), approximately 1 per cent of our headline rent. The majority of the increase versus last year was due to the insolvency of a single customer in our Park Royal portfolio. Our income at risk watchlist remains small and rent collection is tracking at normal levels despite the economic environment. Focused on delivering excellent customer service Although the quality and location of our portfolio is of primary importance to our customers, the value of building outstanding customer relationships through the delivery of excellent customer service should not be underestimated. It helps us to maintain high levels of customer retention, grow rents and create new business opportunities. We often work with our larger customers in more than one location and regularly across geographies: 26 per cent of our headline rent comes from customers with whom we have leases in more than one country. Our cross- border customer account teams help to ensure that we offer a streamlined and informed approach to these businesses. We carry out a rolling survey of our customers throughout the year to identify and rectify issues promptly. In 2024, we spoke to 355 customers, and 97 per cent said that they would recommend SEGRO to others (2023: 96 per cent) while 86 per cent said they rated their experience with SEGRO as ‘Excellent’ or ‘Good’ (2023: 86 per cent). During 2024 we continued to develop our customer insight programme with the launch of three SEGRO customer journey projects to help us better understand their experiences of working with SEGRO and how we can best support them. We continued to bring customers together through our Customer Futures Forums and we also launched a customer intelligence platform across the business to help us better share insights and leverage existing relationships. 1 The 2023 figures are a restatement of previously reported figures and are line with the methodology of our new Science Based Target. 40 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Actively managing our portfolio to create value The supply-demand dynamics across our chosen markets remained in balance during 2024, and although occupier demand for pre-lets was lower than in previous years, we were able to drive further rental value (ERV) growth and sign £91 million of new headline rent during the year. The active asset management of our portfolio reflects our determination to generate outperformance through the cycle. We create plans for every single asset as part of our annual asset review process, aiming to strike a balance between maintaining current high occupancy and creating opportunities to drive future rents and create value through refurbishment, redevelopment or conversion to alternative, higher value, such as data centres. We monitor a number of metrics that help us assess the performance of our existing portfolio: – Excellent progress in capturing the embedded reversion within our portfolio: Lease reviews and renewals during the period generated an uplift of 34 per cent (2023: 31.0 per cent), adding £27 million of new headline rent. New rents agreed at review and renewal hit a record level and were 43 per cent higher in the UK (2023: 40 per cent) as reversion accumulated over the past five years was reflected in the significantly higher new rents agreed. In Continental Europe, rents agreed on renewal were 7 per cent higher (2023: 8 per cent higher), as a result of market rental growth continuing to outpace annual indexation uplifts that have accumulated over recent years. Our portfolio is now 16 per cent reversionary, providing us with the opportunity to capture a further £118 million of headline rent, £71 million of which is up for rent review or renewal by the end of 2027. – Occupancy within our target range at 94.0 per cent (31 December 2023: 95.0 per cent) The increase was mostly due to takebacks in our London portfolio, including a modern estate in North London that we are already marketing and have had good initial interest, as well as older buildings to facilitate refurbishment or redevelopment. The occupancy rate excluding recently completed speculative developments reduced to 95.4 per cent (31 December 2023: 96.0 per cent) and the average occupancy rate during the period was 95.7 per cent (2023: 95.5 per cent). – Customer retention rate remained high at 80 per cent. Approximately £99 million of headline rent was at risk from a break or lease expiry during the period, of which we retained 78 per cent based on customers staying in their existing space (2023: 78 per cent), and a further 2 per cent including those who moved to new premises but stayed within the portfolio (2023: 3 per cent). – Lease terms continue to offer attractive income security. The level of incentives agreed for new leases (excluding those on developments completed in the period) increased slightly to 6.7 per cent of the headline rent (2023: 5.8 per cent). We maintained the portfolio’s weighted average lease length, with 7.2 years to first break and 8.4 years to expiry (31 December 2023: 7.3 years to first break, 8.3 years to expiry). Lease terms are longer in the UK (8.5 years to break) than in Continental Europe (5.3 years to break), reflecting the market convention of shorter leases in countries such as France and Poland. Working closely with our customers and refurbishing older assets to help us achieve our Championing low-carbon growth ambitions During 2024 we updated our carbon targets to align with the new Science-Based Target Initiative (SBTi) ‘Buildings’ framework. This has resulted in two new operational targets: a near-term target to reduce the carbon intensity of our corporate and customer emissions by 81 per cent by 2034, and a net-zero target by 2050. These targets have a new baseline of 2023 and we have restated last year’s emissions using the new best practice methodology. There has been a 1 per cent increase in our corporate customer emission intensity during 2024, largely due to our data centre portfolio which accounted for the majority of the increase in our absolute emissions. Data centre customers are on their own net-zero journey with commitments to reach 100 per cent renewable energy by 2030 and we will continue to work closely with our customers to do what we can to help them make good progress on that commitment. Our green lease clauses help to improve our visibility of our customers’ carbon emissions and are key to delivering a reduction in our corporate and customer emissions. They allow us to report more accurate data and to identify opportunities to help customers operate their buildings more efficiently, reducing their carbon footprint and operating costs. These clauses, alongside an increase in the number of automatic meter feeds that we receive, have helped increase the visibility of our portfolio energy use to 87 per cent (2023: 81 per cent). At the end of 2024, 76 per cent of the portfolio had an EPC rating of B or better (2023: 65 per cent). Whilst the majority of our portfolio is modern and already meets the highest sustainability standards, we do have some older assets in cities such as London and Paris, where land and buildings are in short supply and rents continue to grow. This provides us with the opportunity to add significant value through refurbishment and whilst also improving their environmental performance. A key part of our asset planning process is therefore determining the phasing of these projects and managing the space to ensure we have vacant possession to suit our future plans. This can lead to periods where the headline vacancy in these sub-markets is elevated, for example in our London portfolio at the end of 2024, but the cost of this vacancy is more than outweighed by the value created through the refurbishment or redevelopment. Opportunities such as these are not included in our future development programme and could create significant rental uplifts. Our asset management teams are also working hard to expand the solar capacity of our portfolio through retrofitting onto existing assets (we install photovoltaic arrays on almost all new developments) where feasible. During 2024 we added a record 64MW to our installed solar capacity, more than doubling it and taking the total to 123MW, 16MW of this was through retrofits onto existing buildings. Performance review continued Applying Operational excellence to our supply chains We apply the same approach in our supply chains as we do in our internal operations and aim to develop collaborative partnerships, with mutually beneficial aims and objectives. Our suppliers range from small local businesses to multinational companies and we look to work with businesses who share our approach to matters such as health and safety, compliance and anti-bribery and corruption. Our Supplier Code of Conduct and Modern Slavery and Labour Standards Supplier Code consolidate and set out in full the principles and standards that we expect and outline how we can work side-by-side to create real change. Our relationships with our suppliers are also important in us achieving our Responsible SEGRO ambitions. We work closely with our construction partners to reduce the embodied carbon intensity of our development programme. We also expect our suppliers to work with us to support local businesses and economies; this includes proactively sourcing labour, goods and services from our local communities and contributing to our Community Investment Plans. In the spirit of partnership, we treat our suppliers well and ensure they are paid on time. We are a signatory of the UK Prompt Payment Code (average UK payment time is 14 days). We are also an accredited UK Living Wage employer, and are working with our suppliers to help ensure everyone working in our supply chain to support us is paid a real Living Wage.

SELP’s assets are managed by SEGRO alongside its own portfolio and in return SELP pays SEGRO annual fees for asset management, development, advisory and administrative services. At 31 December 2024 SELP’s AUM was €6 billion. SEGRO European Logistics Partnership (SELP) Marco Simonetti Managing Director, Continental Europe For more information on the joint venture please visit: selp.lu Occupier markets in Continental Europe experienced similar trends to the UK during 2024 and we saw a lower level of pre-let requirements in most of our markets. We saw less of a pandemic supply response on the Continent, however, and vacancy rates have remained low versus historical averages. We experienced rental growth in all of our markets but it varied quite significantly and was stronger where we had leasing or development activity. Investment market liquidity improved in the second half of the year which helped yields to stabilise and allowed us to recycle a number of assets, unlocking capital to reinvest into opportunities that we expect to offer better returns. 2024 key highlights – Rental growth across all of our markets, albeit at a more moderate pace than during the pandemic period. – Lower level of development completions but good progress in progressing planning for future schemes. – Well-executed disposals programme. – Almost doubled the size of our Dutch portfolio through some great asset acquisitions. – Good progress securing power for some of our Continental European data centre opportunities. Risks and opportunities – Potential improvements in the political environment (particularly in France and Germany) has resulted in increased enquiry levels more recently. – Completion of speculative schemes in some of our most supply constrained urban markets (Paris, Frankfurt, Berlin, Düsseldorf), including our innovative underground scheme Les Gobelins. – Industrial and logistics is still a favoured sub-sector for real estate investors so potential for yield compression as activity returns, supported by lower European bond yields. UK occupier markets faired reasonably well during 2024, although macroeconomic uncertainty dented business confidence and brought take-up back to pre-pandemic levels. As the year progressed an improving picture emerged with a stabilisation in vacancy rates and falls in some markets due to a reduction in speculative supply and increased demand. Rental growth continued throughout the year, albeit at more moderate levels but with some very strong pockets of growth, most notably in our Heathrow and certain parts of our National Markets portfolio. UK property yields were stable and investor sentiment improved as the year progressed, particularly for prime assets with strong reversionary potential. 2024 key highlights – Captured a significant amount of reversion during the year, particularly in the London portfolio. – Renewal of the Simplified Planning Zone in Slough. – Two large pre-lets signed for big box warehouses in the Midlands, despite a quieter pre-let market. – Smart acquisitions helping create clusters in attractive markets. – Hit key milestones on the infrastructure works at our new big box logistics park development in Radlett in Hertfordshire. Risks and opportunities – Signs of improved sentiment in the occupier markets towards the end of 2024 points to more active pre-let markets in 2025. – £94 million of reversion to capture in our UK portfolio. – Vacancy remains high in our London portfolio as we upgrade older assets to prime standards to enhance value. – Slough Trading Estate remains in demand for new data centres. – Planning in place for some of our key London schemes, which will allow us to progress quickly when occupier demand accelerates. James Craddock Managing Director, UK 43 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Financial review Financing During 2024, SEGRO completed the following financing transactions. – Short-term debt: During the year, SEGRO has extended the term of €700 million of its revolving credit facilities by a further year. €600 million was extended to a 2027 maturity, and €100 million was extended to a 2028 maturity. SEGRO also cancelled a €100 million bilateral credit facility, which was replaced by the bilateral revolving credit facility entered into in January 2024. – Medium-term debt: SEGRO has repaid a total of £725 million of term loans and extended the maturity of £90 million of term loans for a further year, to 2027. – Long-term debt: In September 2024, SEGRO issued a €500 million 3.5 per cent bond due in 2032. In January 2025, SELP issued a €500 million 3.75 per cent bond due in 2032. – New equity: In February 2024, SEGRO undertook an equity placing in which we raised £907 million of gross proceeds (before costs) through the issue of 111 million new shares at a price of 820 pence. Financial review Financial position at 31 December 2024 At 31 December 2024, the gross borrowings of the SEGRO Group and its share of gross borrowings in joint ventures and associates, after capitalised finance costs, totalled £5,536 million (31 December 2023: £6,420 million), of which £3 million (31 December 2023: £6 million) are secured by way of legal charges over specific assets. The remainder of gross borrowings are unsecured. Cash and cash equivalent balances were £536 million (31 December 2023: £404 million). The average debt maturity was 6.9 years (31 December 2023: 6.9 years) and the average cost of debt as at 31 December 2024 (excluding non-cash interest and commitment fees) was 2.5 per cent (31 December 2023: 3.1 per cent). Funds available to the SEGRO Group (including its share of joint ventures and associates) at 31 December 2024 totalled £2,337 million (31 December 2023: £1,930 million), comprising £536 million cash and short-term investments (which includes £72 million of tenant deposits) and £1,801 million of undrawn credit facilities (which includes £140 million of uncommitted facilities). Cash and cash equivalent balances, together with the Group’s interest rate and foreign exchange derivatives portfolio, are spread amongst a strong group of banks, all of which have a credit rating of A- or better.

The LTV at 31 December 2024 on this basis was 28 per cent (31 December 2023: 34 per cent), the decrease primarily driven by decreased borrowings. SEGRO’s borrowings contain gearing covenants based on Group net debt and net asset value, excluding debt in joint ventures. The gearing ratio of the Group at 31 December 2024, as defined within the principal debt funding arrangements of the Group, was 35 per cent (31 December 2023: 45 per cent). This is significantly lower than the Group’s tightest financial gearing covenant within these debt facilities of 160 per cent. Property valuations would need to fall by around 54 per cent from their 31 December 2024 values to reach the gearing covenant threshold of 160 per cent. A 54 per cent fall in property values would equate to an LTV ratio of approximately 61 per cent. The Group’s other key financial covenant within its principal debt funding arrangements is interest cover, requiring that net interest before capitalisation be covered at least 1.25 times by net property rental income. The ratio for 2024 was 3.7 times, comfortably ahead of the covenant minimum. Net property rental income would need to fall by around 66 per cent from 2024 levels, or the average interest rate would need to rise to 9.2 per cent (from the full-year average interest rate of 3.1 per cent) to breach the interest cover covenant threshold. On a proportionally consolidated basis, including joint ventures, the interest cover ratio was 3.9 times. SEGRO also monitors its leverage on a net debt: EBITDA basis which is an important metric for rating agencies and our investors. SEGRO’s net debt: EBITDA ratio at the end of 2024 was 8.6 times (2023: 10.4 times), reflecting the net impact of an £19 million increase in EBITDA and Monitoring and mitigating financial risk As explained in the risks section of this Annual Report, the Group monitors a number of financial metrics to assess the level of financial risk being taken and to mitigate that risk. Treasury policies and governance The Group Treasury function operates within a formal policy covering all aspects of treasury activity, including funding, counterparty exposure and management of interest rate, currency and liquidity risks. Group Treasury reports on compliance with these policies on a quarterly basis and policies are reviewed regularly by the Board. a £728 million decrease in net debt. SEGRO has a long-term issuer default rating of ‘BBB+’ and a senior unsecured rating of ‘A-’ from Fitch Ratings as at 31 December 2024. The outlook on the long-term issuer default rating was revised in May 2024 to stable, from negative. We mitigate the risk of over-gearing the Company and breaching debt covenants by carefully monitoring the impact of investment decisions on our LTV and by stress testing our balance sheet to potential changes in property values. Our intention for the foreseeable future is to maintain our LTV at around 30 per cent, although the evolution of the property cycle will inevitably mean that there are periods of time when our LTV is higher or lower than this. However, this level of LTV through the cycle provides the flexibility to take advantage of investment opportunities arising and ensures significant headroom compared against our tightest gearing covenants should property values decline. The weighted average maturity of the gross borrowings of the Group (including joint ventures at share) was 6.9 years, with the closest maturity being SELP’s €500 million euro bond in November 2025, followed by SEGRO’s €650 million euro bond in March 2026. This long average debt maturity comprises a well spread debt funding maturity profile which reduces future refinancing risk. Interest rate risk The Group’s interest rate risk policy is designed to ensure that we limit our exposure to volatility in interest rates. The policy states that between 50 and 100 per cent of net borrowings (including the Group’s share of borrowings in joint ventures) should be at fixed or capped rates, including the impact of derivative financial instruments. At 31 December 2024, including the impact of derivative instruments, 116 per cent (2023: 95 per cent) of the net borrowings of the Group (including the Group’s share of borrowings within joint ventures) were either at fixed rates or are protected from rising interest rates with an active interest rate cap. This hedged debt percentage is currently greater than 100 per cent due to the temporarily higher cash balance and lower floating rate bank borrowings. The active interest rate cap portfolio has a spread of expiry dates over the next 5 years to 2029 and an average expiry of 3.0 years. Financial review continued What we said we would do We intend to keep our LTV at around 30 per cent. What we achieved in 2024 The impact of decreased borrowings has meant that LTV has decreased from 34 per cent to 28 per cent at 31 December 2024. What to expect in 2025 We aim to maintain our mid-cycle LTV at around 30 per cent, although the evolution of the property cycle will inevitably mean that there are periods of time when our LTV is higher or lower than this. We believe this approach ensures significant headroom compared against our tightest gearing covenants should property values decline further, as well as providing the flexibility to take advantage of investment opportunities which may arise. We have available cash and undrawn committed facilities of £2.1 billion (including our share of joint ventures and associates) on which we can draw to fund our investment plans. Progress against our strategy Read more on our strategy: page 2 45 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information – In February 2024, the Group raised £907 million of new equity. – In September 2024, the Group raised a €500 million Eurobond, with a six times over subscription rate. Proceeds were used to refinance 2025 and 2026 term loan maturities. – Cash and available committed facilities, excluding tenant deposits, at 31 December 2024 were £1.7 billion. – The negative outlook on SEGRO’s A- senior unsecured rating from Fitch was removed in May 2024. – The Group continuously monitors its liquidity position compared to the refinancing requirements of maturing debt, committed and expected capital and operating expenses on a rolling forward 18-month basis. The quantum of committed capital expenditure at any point in time is typically low due to the short timeframe to construct warehouse buildings. – The Group also regularly stress-tests its financial covenants. As noted above, at 31 December 2024, property values would need to fall by around 54 per cent before breaching the gearing covenant. In terms of interest cover, net rental income would need to fall by 66 per cent or the average interest rate would need to reach in excess of 9 per cent before breaching the interest cover covenant. All would be significantly in excess of the Group’s experience during the financial crisis. Having made enquiries and having considered the principal risks facing the Group, including liquidity and solvency risks, and material uncertainties, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company and the Group have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future (a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements). Accordingly, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements. Presentation of financial information The Group Financial Statements are prepared under IFRS where the Group’s interests in joint ventures and associates are shown as a single line item on the income statement and balance sheet and subsidiaries are consolidated at 100 per cent. The Adjusted profit measure reflects the underlying financial performance of the Group’s property rental business, which is our core operating activity. It is based on EPRA earnings as set out in the Best Practices Recommendations Guidelines of the European Public Real Estate Association (EPRA) which are widely used alternate metrics to their IFRS equivalents within the European real estate sector (further details can be found at www.epra.com). In calculating Adjusted profit, the Directors may also exclude additional items considered to be non-recurring, unusual, or significant by virtue of size and nature. In the current year no such adjustments have been made. In the prior year, the net profit after tax impact of the SELP performance fees recognised of £42 million has been excluded. Furthermore, in the prior year, an impairment of a loan to an associate (£28 million) has been excluded. See Note 2 for more detail. The Group seeks to limit its exposure to volatility in foreign exchange rates by hedging its foreign currency gross assets using either borrowings or derivative instruments. The Group targets a hedging range of between the last reported LTV ratio (28 per cent at 31 December 2024) and 100 per cent. At 31 December 2024, the Group was 75 per cent hedged by gross foreign currency denominated liabilities (31 December 2023: 74 per cent). Including the impact of forward foreign exchange and currency swap contracts used to hedge foreign currency denominated net assets, if the value of the other currencies in which the Group operates at 31 December 2024 weakened by 10 per cent against sterling (to €1.33, in the case of euros), net assets would have decreased by approximately £124 million and there would have been a reduction in gearing of approximately 2.4 per cent and in the LTV of 1.4 per cent. The average exchange rate used to translate euro denominated earnings generated during 2024 into sterling within the consolidated income statement of the Group was €1.18: £1. Based on the hedging position at 31 December 2024, and assuming that this position had applied throughout 2024, if the euro had been 10 per cent weaker than the average exchange rate (€1.30: £1), Adjusted profit after tax for the year would have been approximately £9 million (2.4 per cent) lower than reported. If it had been 10 per cent stronger, Adjusted profit after tax for the year would have been approximately £11 million (2.9 per cent) higher than reported. Going concern As noted in the Financial Position and Funding section above, the Group has significant available liquidity to meet its capital commitments, a long-dated debt maturity profile and substantial headroom against financial covenants. Financial review continued Income statement review The Group has had a temporary elevated cash balance throughout the year, which has been invested in short-term interest-bearing deposits and money market funds. In order to protect the Group from decreases in floating interest rates, a series of interest rate floor contracts were entered into to manage this risk. The interest rate floors are short-term contracts to reflect the temporary nature of the elevated cash balance and are all due to mature during 2025. As a result of the fixed and capped cover in place, if short-term interest rates had been 100 basis points higher throughout the year to 31 December 2024, the adjusted net finance cost of the Group would have been approximately £5 million lower (31 December 2023: £10 million higher for a 200 bps increase in interest rates) representing around 1 per cent (31 December 2023: 3 per cent) of Adjusted profit after tax. The sensitivity is currently inverted due to the floating rate income earned on the higher than usual cash balances during the year to 31 December 2024. The Group elects not to hedge account its interest rate derivatives portfolio. Therefore, movements in its fair value are taken to the income statement but, in accordance with EPRA Best Practices Recommendations Guidelines, these gains and losses are eliminated from Adjusted profit after tax. Foreign currency translation risk The Group has minimal transactional foreign currency exposure but does have a potentially significant currency translation exposure arising on the conversion of its foreign currency denominated assets (mainly euro) and euro denominated earnings into sterling in the Group consolidated accounts. 46 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information 1 Comprises net property rental income less administrative expenses, net finance costs and taxation. 2 The like-for-like net rental growth metric is based on properties held throughout both 2024 and 2023 on a proportionally consolidated basis.

On a like-for-like basis2, before other items (primarily corporate centre and other costs not specifically allocated to the two property businesses), net rental income increased by £29 million, or 5.8 per cent, compared to 2023. This is due to strong rental performance across our portfolio. In the UK, there was a 5.9 per cent increase, primarily through capturing the reversionary potential in the portfolio through lease reviews and renewals. In Continental Europe there was a similar increase (5.7 per cent), primarily through indexation; (for more information see Performance review page 41). Income from joint ventures and associates £2m lower 3 SEGRO’s share of joint ventures and associates’ Adjusted profit after tax increased slightly (£1 million) from £82 million in 2023 to £83 million in 2024. The increase is due to a small upward movement in net rental income. Joint venture fee management fee income decreased by £3 million to £26 million in 2024 due to a reduction in development activity and lower property values, on which elements of the fees are based. Prior period performance fees from joint ventures have been excluded from Adjusted profit and are discussed in Note 7 to the Financial Statements. Administration expenses £13m higher 2 Administrative expenses have increased by £13 million to £76 million in the current year. This primarily related to investment in technology through IT costs and depreciation from project spend in previous years, as well as costs relating to transactions not completed. This is a contributory factor for the total cost ratio (after share-based payments), which includes property operating expenses which increased from 18.4 per cent to 20.7 per cent in the current year. Further detail is given in Table 9 in the notes to the Financial Statements. Taxation 2.6% (effective rate) 5 The tax charge on Adjusted profit of £12 million (2023: £10 million) reflects an effective tax rate of 2.6 per cent (2023: 2.4 per cent). The Group’s effective tax rate reflects the fact that around three-quarters of its wholly- owned assets are located in the UK and qualify for REIT status. This status means that income from rental profits and gains on disposals of assets in the UK are exempt from corporation tax, provided SEGRO meets a number of conditions including, but not limited to, distributing 90 per cent of UK taxable profits. Income statement review continued Financial review continued Net finance costs £38m lower 4 Net finance costs were £38 million lower than 2023 at £68 million. This is primarily due to lower net debt in the year following the equity raise in the early part of 2024, discussed further in the Financing section above. Furthermore, average interest rates during the year were 3.1 per cent compared to 3.4 per cent in the prior year, further reducing the net finance costs. Interest capitalised on the development of properties in the year was £67 million, slightly higher than the prior year (2023: £64 million). Adjusted profit (EPS) £59m higher (34.5p) 6 Adjusted profit after tax increased by £59 million to £458 million (2023: £399 million) as a result of the above movements, primarily growth in rental income and reduced finance costs. Adjusted profit is detailed further in Note 2 to the Financial Statements. Adjusted earnings per share are 34.5 pence compared to 32.7 pence in 2023 due to the increase in Adjusted profit offset by the 108.7 million increase in the average number of shares in issue compared to the prior year, largely as a result of the equity placing. 47 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information EPRA NTA attributable to ordinary shareholders at 31 December 2023 Adjusted profit after tax Realised and unrealised property gains Dividend net of scrip shares issued (2023 final and 2024 interim) Equity share placing Exchange rate movement (net of hedging) Other 907p 34p 12p (28)p (9)p (6)p (3)p EPRA NTA attributable to ordinary shareholders at 31 December 2024 907p Balance sheet At 31 December 2024, IFRS net assets were £12,049 million (31 December 2023: £10,904 million), reflecting 889 pence per share (31 December 2023: 886 pence) on a diluted basis. Adjusted NAV per share at 31 December 2024 was 907 pence and flat compared to the prior year (31 December 2023: 907 pence). This movement primarily reflects profits and property gains, offset by dividends, the impact of the equity placing (where shares were issued at a price below net asset value per share) and exchange rate movements. The chart highlights the main factors behind the movement in Adjusted NAV. A reconciliation between IFRS and Adjusted NAV is available in Note 12 to the Financial Statements. Cash flow and net debt reconciliation Cash flows from operating activities of £459 million are £125 million lower than the prior year. This is primarily due to the prior period including receipt of a performance fee (£89 million) and proceeds from disposal of a trading property (£35 million). Finance cost outflows of £141 million in servicing the debt facilities, represent a £26 million reduction on the prior year, reflecting lower net debt in the period. Interest rate risk management is detailed further in the Financial review on page 45. In addition there were tax payments of £17 million, primarily in France. The Group made net investments of £377 million in investment and development properties during the year on a wholly-owned cash flow basis (2023: £487 million). This is principally driven by expenditure of £1,000 million (2023: £839 million) to purchase and develop investment properties to deliver further growth in line with our strategy. Disposals of investment properties increased by £271 million to £623 million compared to the prior year (2023: £352 million) as the business continued to recycle assets when the opportunity arose. The largest cash flow in the year relates to proceeds from new equity of £889 million (being gross proceeds £907 million received net of costs) discussed in the Financing section above. During the year £277 million (2023: £185 million) dividends were paid which is lower than the total dividend due to the level of scrip uptake of £115 million (2023: £129 million) and tax paid relating to the prior year Property Income Distribution of £13 million (2023: £13 million payment deferred). Overall, net debt has decreased in the year by £728 million to £4,244 million. Capital expenditure Table 10 in the Supplementary Notes sets out analysis of the capital expenditure during the year. This includes acquisition and development spend, on an accruals basis, in respect of the Group’s wholly-owned investment and trading property portfolios, as well as the equivalent amounts for joint ventures and associates at share. Total spend for the year was £1,104 million, broadly in line with the prior year (2023: £1,121 million), with reduced development spend offset by increased acquisition spend. More detail on this spend can be found in the Development and Investment Updates on pages 37 to 39. Development capital expenditure was £471 million in the year (2023: £527 million) primarily in the UK. This includes infrastructure spend of £138 million (2023: £92 million). Interest of £69 million (2023: £68 million) has been capitalised in the year. Spend on existing completed properties totalled £54 million (2023: £67 million), of which £1 million (2023: £1 million) was for incremental lettable space. The balance mainly comprises refurbishment and fit-out costs, which equates to less than 5 per cent of total spend. Adjusted net asset value (pence per share) IFRS profit IFRS profit before tax in 2024 was £636 million (2023: £263 million loss), equating to basic post-tax IFRS profit per share of 44.7 pence compared with loss per share of 20.7 pence for 2023. A reconciliation between Adjusted profit before tax and IFRS profit before tax is provided in Note 2 to the Financial Statements. The principal driver of IFRS profit is realised and unrealised property gains which is the main reason for the higher profit per share in 2024 versus 2023. Total gain on properties is £167 million (2023: £760 million loss). This includes a £195 million realised and unrealised property gain on investment and trading properties in the wholly-owned business (2023: £598 million loss) and £28 million loss from joint ventures and associates at share (2023: £162 million loss). The largest component is valuation gains on investment properties of £90 million including joint ventures at share (2023: £809 million loss), which is driven by a 3.2 per cent increase in ERV and gains from development completions. These are discussed in more detail in the Performance review on page 35. Other property movements include profit on sale of wholly-owned investment properties of £75 million (2023: £39 million). In addition, SEGRO recognised a tax charge in respect of adjustments of £30 million (2023: £20 million credit) primarily in relation to property disposals and valuation movements.

Since we also receive income from our properties in Continental Europe, our total dividend should normally exceed this minimum level and we target a payout ratio of 85 to 95 per cent of Adjusted profit after tax. We aim to deliver a progressive and sustainable dividend which grows in line with our profitability in order to achieve our goal of being a leading income- focused REIT. The Board has concluded that it is appropriate to recommend an increase in the 2024 final dividend per share by 1.1 pence to 20.2 pence (2023: 19.1 pence). We will pay the 2024 final dividend as a PID and expect to pay the 2025 interim dividend as an ordinary dividend. The Board’s recommendation is subject to approval by shareholders at the 2025 Annual General Meeting to be held on 30 April 2025, in which event the 2024 final dividend will be paid on 14 May 2025 to shareholders on the register at the close of business on 28 March 2025. In considering the final dividend, the Board took into account: – the policy of targeting a payout ratio of between 85 and 95 per cent of Adjusted profit after tax; – the desire to ensure that the dividend is sustainable and progressive throughout the cycle; and – the results for 2024 and the outlook for earnings. The total dividend for the year will, therefore, be 29.3 pence, a rise of 5.4 per cent versus 2023 (27.8 pence) and represents distribution of 86 per cent of Adjusted profit after tax. The Board has decided not to offer a scrip dividend option for the 2024 final dividend. Cash flow bridge (£m) Financial review continued 49 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Managing risk Effective risk management The Group Risk Committee, comprised of a team of knowledgeable and experienced senior management, has convened three times this year to oversee the risk management function on behalf of the Executive Committee. Whilst SEGRO’s principal risks remain relatively consistent from year to year, we place particular emphasis on key areas that respond to shifts in the external environment or within the business. This year, one area of focus has been the availability of power. Power was already a key part of the existing Development and Construction Execution risk. We continue to focus on the challenges in securing the right amount of power, in the right place, at the right time, to meet the demands of our customers and to optimise returns. We are increasing internal expertise to manage this risk and have established an Energy Strategy. We continue to work closely with governments, invest in on-site energy generation capacity and communicate with regulators. Emerging risks In addition to monitoring our principal risks in the Risk Register, we actively identify and monitor emerging risks. These include a variety of factors such as longer-term customer trends, technological development and Artificial Intelligence, climate change-related extreme weather events and corporate growth. Two examples of what we consider are: Technological development and Artificial Intelligence There may be negative and/or unintended consequences of advances in technological capabilities as well as significant opportunities. Artificial Intelligence is developing extremely quickly and longer term, there is uncertainty around its application, significant interconnectivity with existing risks and potential detrimental knock-on effects. SEGRO must closely monitor these developments to be in a position to maximise potential longer-term opportunities. Customer concentration and trends If SEGRO fails to predict longer-term customer preferences, we could end up holding assets which do not meet customer demand and this could be linked to a lack of competitiveness. SEGRO monitors changes in customer demand and their drivers (which may be associated with other risk areas such as climate change, technological and power demand). To mitigate these risks, SEGRO maintains close relationships with customers whilst also monitoring customer concentration risk. Soumen Das Chief Financial Officer Successful delivery of our strategy supported by a professional and functional risk management programme. An effective, proportionate, reliable and integrated risk management process is essential to support our strategy, decision-making and business model. Our risk management approach ensures that SEGRO can remain stable and resilient in the face of ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty and disruption. This approach also ensures we are best positioned to capitalise from any short- and long-term market improvement. Annual risk management update Throughout the year, the Board and key committees have overseen our response to external challenges and their broader economic implications, as well as internal risks. As a result, proactive measures have been taken to mitigate impacts on our operations, strategy and stakeholders. We regularly review our investment plans and manage our balance sheet diligently to protect SEGRO against future uncertainty. SEGRO Logistics Centre Tilburg III 50 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information 1 SEGRO Park Le Thillay Risk management provides a structured approach to decision making that aims to reduce uncertainty regarding expected outcomes and keep controllable risks within our appetite. This allows us to protect value for our stakeholders, both now and in the future. Risk appetite is at the core of our risk management process and guides business decisions, making it integral to our strategic considerations and medium-term planning. It is applicable throughout the organisation, including joint ventures and associates. The Group’s risk appetite is reviewed annually and approved by the Board. In addition to qualitative descriptions, our risk appetite defines tolerances and targets for key metrics, as well as criteria for assessing the potential impact of risks and our strategies for mitigating them. We have different risk appetites for different types of risk and they are dynamic, adapting over time and throughout the property cycle. Overall, the Group maintains a low appetite for risk, aligning with our strategic objective of delivering long-term sustainable value. Our risk appetite Managing risk continued SEGRO recognises that achieving outperformance from our portfolio requires accepting a balanced level of property risk to enhance opportunities for superior returns. Our portfolio aims for attractive, low-risk income returns and resilience in downturns. Our development is supported by appropriate land holdings and we rely on a diverse occupier base avoiding overspecialised properties where possible. The Group maintains a low appetite for financial risk overall, with an especially low tolerance for risks related to solvency and gearing covenant breaches. As a REIT, we prioritise stable earnings and dividends, and seek long-term growth in net asset value, although we recognise that external factors can influence the property cycle. We acknowledge that a moderate leverage strategy can amplify the effects of market-driven asset valuation fluctuations on net asset value. The Group has a very low appetite for risks that could harm our reputation with customers and other stakeholders, including investors, regulators, employees, business partners, suppliers, lenders, and the communities where we operate. Our responsibilities to these stakeholders encompass compliance with relevant laws, accurate and timely reporting of financial and regulatory information, protecting the health and safety of all stakeholders, considering our environmental impact, adhering to ethical codes of conduct, ensuring business continuity, and contributing positively to our local communities. Property risk Financial risk Corporate risk We understand that a unified and responsive approach to risk management is essential for us to be able to address the risks to our strategy.” Soumen Das Chief Financial Officer 1 51 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Our integrated and robust approach to risk management The risk management process aims to identify, assess, respond to and record significant risks that may affect the Group’s objectives. Since most risks can often only be partially avoided, the focus is on mitigation and the process provides reasonable, but not absolute, assurance regarding the effectiveness. Continuous oversight ensures SEGRO can adapt to changing risks and SEGRO therefore monitors emerging as well as principal risks. The Board has conducted a thorough assessment of the principal risks facing the Group, formally reviewing them twice a year. Additionally, the Board has completed its annual review and approval of the Group’s risk appetite and risk management policy. The Audit Committee has evaluated the adequacy of the Group Risk process during the year. While the Board acknowledges limited control over many external risks such as global events, macroeconomic trends and regulatory factors, it remains committed to assessing their potential impact on the business and subsequent decision-making. Internal risks are closely monitored to ensure that effective controls are in place and functioning as intended. The most significant risks are detailed in the Group Risk Register, where they are assessed in both inherent (before controls) and residual (after controls) states. Risk impact is measured against our risk appetite to categorise each risk as below appetite, within appetite, tolerable or intolerable. We also formally assess the velocity of significant risks. Each identified risk has a range of mitigating controls established to manage it effectively. A Key Risk Indicator (KRI) dashboard is regularly produced and monitored to track actual and forecast performance against our risk appetite metrics. This dashboard facilitates informed decision-making by providing a clear overview of risk status. KRIs are routinely reviewed by relevant monitoring committees as part of their decision- making processes and play a crucial role in the Group’s Medium-Term Plan, ensuring alignment with our strategic objectives. The Register is used as a key input to determine priorities for the Group’s internal audit assurance programme. Furthermore, management’s annual self-assessment of internal control effectiveness is driven by the register. Our framework for risk governance The first line of defence is provided by the part of the business that has primary responsibility to own and manage the risk. The second line of defence is provided by the committee or group that oversees the risk or which specialises in compliance or risk management. This would typically be a monitoring committee such as the Executive Committee or the Investment Committee, as well as the risk management function overseen by the Group Risk Committee. The third line of defence is provided by Internal Audit which gives objective and independent assurance over whether the first and second lines of defence are operating effectively. The Board has overall responsibility for ensuring that risk is effectively and consistently managed across the Group. The Audit Committee monitors effectiveness on behalf of the Board. Further information on compliance with the risk management provisions of the UK Corporate Governance Code can be found in the Internal controls and risk management section of the Audit Committee Report. Accountabilities for the Group’s risk management are outlined in the diagram. 1 SEGRO Logistics Park Poznań, Komorniki Managing risk continued Our risk management process is well- established and understood by the business and those involved in the risk governance process.” Soumen Das Chief Financial Officer Risk management 1 52 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Our framework for risk governance – Overall responsibility for ensuring that risk is effectively managed across the Group. – Determines the Group’s risk appetite and policy. – Conducts robust assessment of current and emerging risks.

Managing risk continued 53 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Principal risks and uncertainties The principal risks have the potential to affect SEGRO’s business materially. Risks are classified as ‘principal’ based on their potential to intolerably exceed our appetite (considering both inherent and residual impact) and cause material harm to the Group. The principal risks are reviewed and amended to reflect changing knowledge, understanding and assessment. Some risks that may be unknown at present, as well as other risks that are currently regarded as immaterial and therefore not detailed here, could turn out to be material in the future. SEGRO records emerging risks which have yet to reach full maturity and the impact, probability and timing of the risks is difficult to quantify. SEGRO monitor emerging risks and considers whether an emerging risk should be recorded, instead, as a principal risk. The current principal risks that the Group is aware that it is facing are summarised in the diagram and described on the following pages. The descriptions indicate the potential areas of impact on the Group’s strategy; the time-horizon and probability of the risk; the principal activities that are in place to mitigate and manage such risks; the committees that provide second line of defence oversight; changes in the level of risk over the course of the year; and link to further relevant information in this report. A summary of the Group’s principal risks is provided below. Each risk includes commentary on current year activity but there is no material change to the structure or content of risks compared with what was reported in the 2023 Annual Report.

This misjudgement could lead to the adoption of an inappropriate strategy or hinder the execution of an existing strategy, ultimately affecting property performance and shareholder value. Mitigations The Executive Committee, Investment Committee, and ultimately the Board continuously monitor the property market cycle and adjust the Group’s investment and divestment stance in response to both current and anticipated market conditions. Multiple, diverse investment and occupier market intelligence is regularly reviewed and considered, both from internal ‘on-the-ground’ sources and from independent external sources. Investment Committee papers incorporate both upside and downside scenarios to evaluate the impact of varying market conditions and to inform our portfolio strategy (see separate principal risk). The Group’s Total Property and/or Shareholder Returns could underperform in absolute or relative terms as a result of an inappropriate portfolio strategy. This could be caused by: – Incorrect or ineffective capital allocation decisions; – Poor or incorrect market or asset level assumptions (see separate macroeconomic principal risk); – Inaccurate modelling or forecasting; – Lack of appropriate procedures and inadequate due diligence resulting in lengthy, onerous or costly transactions; – Inaccuracy of data or failure of due diligence. Mitigations The Board regularly reviews the Group’s portfolio strategy in order to consider the desired shape of the portfolio. The portfolio strategy should align with the Group’s overall strategy and adapt to market conditions. Major capital investment and disposal decisions require Board approval. Policies are in place to govern investment activity. Regular analysis ensures that the portfolio is optimally positioned in terms of location and asset type, maintaining the right balance between core and opportunity assets. The annual asset planning exercise provides a bottom-up assessment of the performance and potential for all existing assets, helping to determine where to invest capital and to identify assets for disposal. Investment hurdle rates are regularly reappraised taking into account estimates of our weighted average cost of capital. Current year activity The uncertain economic backdrop and elevated geopolitical risk was reflected in lower pre-let volumes in 2024. There are signs that the investment markets are improving as we enter a new phase of the market cycle. In response, we have continued to perform thorough economic outlook assessments. We continue to mitigate our corporate risk through an appropriate financing strategy (see other principal risk) and ensure that the consequences for our portfolio strategy are appropriately aligned (see separate principal risk). This preparation enables us to withstand economic shocks and take advantage of market opportunities. Current year activity The Group maintains a disciplined and responsive approach to portfolio management and capital allocation, as outlined in the Performance review section. We continuously review our portfolio and uphold appropriate investment criteria and hurdle rates to ensure resilience against macroeconomic uncertainty. The Group’s approach to capital allocation is informed by comprehensive asset plans and independent external assessments of market conditions and forecasts. Locally based property investment and operational teams provide market intelligence and utilise their networks to identify attractive opportunities. These teams are overseen by the UK and Continental European Heads of Investment. .

A global event or business disruptor may include, but is not limited to, a global financial crisis, health pandemic, power/water shortages, weather- related event, war or civil unrest, acts of terrorism, cyber breach (either malicious or accidental) or other IT disruption. Events may be singular or cumulative, and lead to business disruption and impair the operating environment. Mitigations The Group ensures its resilience against a global event and business disruption through its financing strategy (see separate principal risk), diverse portfolio strategy (see separate principal risk), resilient work force and detailed business continuity and disaster recovery plans. Where appropriate, relevant insurance is procured and horizon scans help identify potential upcoming risk areas. The assessment of going concern and viability is conducted through a detailed, bottom- up, medium-term planning process including a business stress test and downside scenarios. Specialist employees, overseen by our Technology Committee, ensure the resilience and security of our technology through controls, training, testing, and audits. We maintain robust processes and controls for business continuity and IT disaster recovery. Additionally, we use third-party experts to supplement our internal expertise when testing our resilience to cyber-attacks. Current year activity As geopolitical instability continues, it creates uncertainty for the Group’s operations and stakeholders. The Group maintains its robust financing and portfolio strategy, ensuring flexibility and preparedness for major events and business disruptions. The Board and other committees remain vigilant and responsive, actively managing risk mitigation as situations evolve. The business continuity plan continues to operate successfully. The annual asset planning process reviews any areas of weakness in the portfolio with associated plans to rectify them. Our cyber breach response plan was reviewed and we implemented an extended detection and response system and service to improve our speed and ability around detecting potential threats. We continue regular training and testing of employees and this year have increased content focusing on deepfakes and Artificial Intelligence.

This may be associated with the failure of safety management systems, failure of a building or other physical asset, or negligence of a third- party. Furthermore, the Group may breach relevant legislation or fail to provide suitable employee support. The consequence may be litigation, fines, serious reputational damage or a negative impact on employees. Mitigations A health and safety policy and management system is in place, and best practice is reviewed with the Health and Safety Working Group. The working group continuously monitors health and safety practices, including incidents, inspections, and training across the business. Legal guidance and additional support are provided by local health and safety consultants and lawyers, who offer regulatory assurance alongside our internal expertise. Construction monitoring activities continue through our contracted external consultants in each country through in person development inspections, with SEGRO support. Incidents and inspections are tracked across the Group on a health and safety management system. Failure to adequately anticipate and/or respond to the impact of climate change or lack of preparation for environmental risks following: – Increased severity and unpredictability of weather-related events leading to more frequent damage to our buildings; – Changes in laws, regulations, policies, taxation, and reporting requirements; – Changes in social attitudes and customer requirements whereby SEGRO are required to alter the design and build of properties and/or energy provision to buildings and/or commitments to climate change mitigation initiatives. These risks may result in financial cost to SEGRO, disruption to our customers, fines, fall in share price or negative reputational effect, reduced demand for our properties and reduce competitiveness. Climate-related risks, their time horizon and their management and mitigation are detailed further on pages 68 to 69. Mitigations Championing low-carbon growth is one of our three Responsible SEGRO priorities. The Responsible SEGRO framework guides our efforts to reduce corporate and customer, and embodied carbon emissions, and is supported by our Mandatory Sustainability policy. The sustainability team update the Executive Committee monthly and the Board annually. The Strategic Priorities Steering Group meets fortnightly and is tasked with aligning activities across the strategic priority areas, including Championing low-carbon growth. Our Sustainability team supports group and local teams with data gathering and understanding legal and regulatory requirements, as well as sharing best practice and guidance from external advisors overseeing compliance with the Mandatory Sustainability Policy. SEGRO maintains a zero-tolerance approach to poor health and safety practices and collaborates closely with suppliers and health and safety consultants to enhance understanding and implementation of SEGRO’s requirements. SEGRO’s health and safety management system is supported by site inspections of existing and potential new assets, as part of proactive management, and development project inspections in line with SEGRO’s Health and Safety Construction Standard. Current year activity Employee training continues to be rolled out, virtually and in-person with our training partners. SEGRO has launched a new safety management system controlling safety procedures. The health and safety team have access to a legal register provided by a third party to ensure that SEGRO remain up to date on legislative changes and monitor future changes. Routine monthly health and safety reporting is in place to internal operational, technical and leadership teams and the health and safety team respond to feedback and experiences, as well as reviewing specific practices and controls where required. A climate resilience study has been conducted to evaluate the physical risks to our portfolio, detailed further on page 65. Current year activity Our Responsible SEGRO framework continues to outline our strategy to reduce our corporate and customer carbon emissions and embodied carbon. During the year we strengthened our internal governance approach by creating a taskforce, consisting of two members of the Executive Committee, a senior Finance Director and our Director, Sustainability to review our carbon reduction targets. We intend to maintain this governance taskforce to monitor progress. See page 73 for details of further actions during 2024. We have appointed a Head of Sustainable Finance to support our compliance with the emerging EU non-financial reporting requirements. We continue to work with advisors on increasing disclosure requirements, allowing for more robust reporting and assurance processes. Environmental considerations are increasingly important in asset acquisition and disposal decision-making, developments and refurbishment decisions.

This could result in increased costs and delays, reduced returns, reputational damage and fines. Mitigations We closely monitor our exposure to non-income producing assets (including land, infrastructure, and speculative developments), especially when acquisition decisions are being made by the Investment Committee. The Acquisition and Disposals policy sets out key stages of transactions and the authorisations required. Our development programme prioritises pre-let opportunities. We retain a high level of optionality in our future development programme, including land acquisition, and commitment to infrastructure and buildings. The risk of cost overruns or supply chain issues is, at least in part, mitigated by using our experienced development teams and a panel of trusted advisors and contractors, and typically using fixed price contracts. Collaboration with contractors and ongoing communication helps to identify potential issues and possible solutions ahead of time. The risk of contractor default is reduced by using a diverse group of companies which have been through a rigorous onboarding process and close monitoring of their financial strength. Short development lead-times allow for quick responses to changing market conditions. The Group could suffer an acute liquidity or solvency crisis caused by a failure in design or execution of its financing strategy. Such an event may be caused by a number of factors including a failure to obtain debt or equity funding (for example, due to market disruption or rating downgrade); having an inappropriate debt structure (including leverage level, debt maturity, interest rate or currency exposure); poor forecasting; defaulting on loan agreements as a result of a breach of financial or other covenants; or counterparty default. This could result in an inability for SEGRO to finance its growth strategy and financial loss or financial distress. Mitigations The Treasury Strategy is reviewed annually by the Board and the quarterly report is sent to the Executive Committee to ensure our key risk metrics are reviewed regularly. The Group’s financing strategy is consistent with the Group’s risk appetite, MTP and long-term business strategy. Our Treasury policy outlines key parameters and comprehensive controls to ensure effective execution of this strategy. Oversight is maintained internally by the Construction Steering Group which coordinates with the Health and Safety team to manage challenges such as defects or deleterious materials in buildings. Technical best practice in development is maintained via cross business forums. Additionally, the Partnership Development team engages with stakeholders as part of SEGRO’s social responsibilities and supports planning processes. Current year activity Due to continuing variability in market conditions, we have maintained our stringent investment criteria. We carefully monitor the value of land holdings considering prevailing market conditions, looking for optionality where possible. We continue to partner with our contractors as we expect lump sum contracts may become harder to agree or will incur increased costs due to contractors accounting for additional risks. We monitor ‘overspecification’ of projects and investigate ways to drive best value from costs to ensure SEGRO is not at risk of becoming uncompetitive. The Group periodically assesses its financing needs based on opportunities and market conditions and maintains long-term relationships with various finance providers. Current year activity The Group holds a significant presence in the euro bond, sterling bond and US private placement markets. SELP also holds a significant presence in the euro bond market. This positions us well financially to support activities aligned with our strategic priorities. Furthermore, the Group continues to utilise fixed rate debt and pertinent derivatives to mitigate the risk of rising interest rates both currently and in the future. We continue to be advised by our lending banks and corporate brokers that we can access all capital markets as demonstrated by the £907m equity raise in February 2024 and the €500m SEGRO bond in September 2024. Liquidity remains strong due to the facilities put in place and there is substantial headroom vs all our financial covenants.

Such failures could lead to material litigation, censure, penalties and fines, as well as potentially significant reputational damage and loss of stakeholder confidence. It could also impact the Company’s REIT and SIIC status and damage relationships with tax authorities. Compliance with future new laws and/or regulations introduced by governments in the countries in which the Company operates could potentially impact the business and its ability to achieve its strategic objectives. A lack of employee awareness of the obligations which apply to the Company, as well as its culture may lead to an increased risk of unethical, fraudulent and/or unacceptable behaviour including breaches of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. Mitigations Internal legal and company secretariat experts continue to monitor developments in the legal, governance and regulatory environment, together with their colleagues in the tax, health and safety and sustainability functions. The Company appoints well-respected and high- quality external advisers to help it manage and monitor this further, with Heads of functions regularly consulting with external advisers; attending relevant briefings; and participating as members of key bodies. Compliance with joint venture agreements is handled by skilled legal, company secretariat, property, tax and finance colleagues. Comprehensive governance and compliance structures, including management manuals, are in place as required. The Company also closely monitors taxation regulations with advisers to promptly address any changes affecting the Group or its stakeholders. SEGRO’s experienced internal tax team manages the Group’s tax compliance, and REIT and SIIC compliance is reviewed bi-annually. The Executive Committee regularly consider legal and regulatory risks and significant legal and regulatory updates or changes are communicated to the Board and Audit Committee as soon as appropriate. Current year activity The legal and regulatory environment remains dynamic with an ever-increasing number of new laws and regulations. Governments and regulators continue to take a more aggressive stance on enforcement, with private entities also increasingly looking to bring civil suits. A tender of the UK Real Estate Legal Panel was carried out in the second half of 2024 with an additional firm appointed to help manage legal risk further. We continue to raise awareness of the obligations of employees set out in the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, with all new employees required to carry out mandatory training and targeted training also being delivered where appropriate. All employees are required to confirm compliance with the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics each year, where they must also confirm that they are not aware of any breaches or inappropriate behaviour having taken place. The Company continued its supplier screening programme and supplier interviews where members of the Company’s legal team talk to suppliers to ensure that appropriate and robust anti-bribery, corruption and fraud policies and procedures, as well as policies and procedures to prevent modern slavery occurring, are in place. The Supplier Code of Conduct also reinforces the behaviour expected from suppliers and those working for the Company. Further detail on the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is on page 75 of the Governance Report.

This could be caused by ineffective people policies and processes including recruitment and onboarding, organisational structure, talent management and succession, reward and recognition, learning and development, performance management, hybrid working practices or a lack of appropriate social policies. Mitigations Our goal is a sustainable business, inclusive and diverse, as outlined in our Responsible SEGRO framework. Succession planning and key person risk are reviewed at least annually with the Executive Committee and the Board. We review compensation annually with a third party to ensure appropriate salary ranges. We have various incentive tools which can be applied flexibly during the year to retain talented employees and these are reviewed by the Remuneration Committee. The hiring, appraisal, succession planning, and talent processes are regularly reviewed, and employee engagement surveys are conducted to understand employee sentiment. The Group may experience operational failures such as: increased level of customer defaults; supply chain disruptions; reporting failure or delay; fraud error or disruption of treasury operations; inaccurate or misleading valuation reporting; erroneous lease execution or inaccurate lease data; or poor customer insight and retention. These issues could lead to various adverse effects, including reputational damage, regulatory censure or fines, additional and unplanned costs, reduced income and property valuation, illiquidity and missed opportunities reducing SEGRO’s competitiveness. Mitigations The Group is dedicated to maintaining a high standard of operational excellence. The Executive Committee and Joint Operating Group consistently monitor various risks associated with property management, organisational effectiveness, and customer relations. Each operational area is supervised by a skilled central team and often local team members. We periodically review our policies and procedures to ensure their continued appropriateness and verify compliance through both internal and external audits. Additionally, we maintain sufficient insurance coverage across the Group. We use reputable external experts to advise us and receive market insights. Our internal teams are also supported by bespoke tools to govern the process associated with operational delivery. We ensure that our customer base is diverse and wherever possible, possesses financial stability, which we monitor closely along with customer concentration metrics. We undertake an annual customer satisfaction survey and conduct interviews with senior customer stakeholders to facilitate identification of key customer requirements. Current year activity After a period of reorganisation in 2023, the wider organisation is now more stable, with new teams established and a number of new hires to supplement our existing workforce, although headcount and costs are broadly flat. Over the summer we completed a people planning exercise across the Company, to proactively plan for resourcing and development needs. This was led by individual Leadership Team members and culminated in a review of the organisation and talent/succession plans by the Executive Committee and Group Board. We have progressed our Nurturing talent agenda with the introduction of an enhanced suite of family-friendly policies across the Group and launch of a new approach to performance management that further embeds our values and behaviours. We have also introduced new assessment and development tools deeper into the organisation and continued our focus on inclusion and diversity. Current year activity We continue to cultivate close engagement with our customers as well as continually assessing the risks associated with customer concentration and monitoring and reporting customer covenant risk. An automated letting recommendation application, which is a workflow tool, is now in place in all countries and is producing valuation management information. The SEGRO asset management application, another workflow tool, is in the process of being rolled out across the Group country-by-country and, together with the letting recommendation tool, increases efficiency, consistency and control. A customer insight tool has been rolled out across Group to maximise collaboration. We collaborate with our supply chain and have reviewed key suppliers to ensure suitable alternatives are available if one fails. Critical suppliers include contractors and their sub- contractors (detailed more fully in the Development and Construction Execution risk) and IT suppliers. Additionally, we continue to ensure prompt payment to our suppliers.

The process for conducting this assessment is summarised in the Audit Committee’s report on page 98. The Directors confirm that they have a reasonable expectation that the Group will be able to continue in operation and has adequate resources to meet its liabilities as they fall due over the next five years. The assessment of viability is split into short-term and longer-term time horizons. Short-term assessment The short-term assessment included consideration of our going concern assessment and a review of key controls around liquidity management. Management regularly reviews the Group’s liquidity position and operating results. In addition, key treasury metrics including financial covenants are reviewed by the Executive Committee on a quarterly basis. Longer-term assessment The period assessed for the longer term is the same five-year time horizon as covered by the Group’s annual rolling five-year strategic financial plan. This is considered to be the optimum balance between our need to plan for the long term, and the progressively unreliable nature of forecasting in later years, particularly given the historically cyclical nature of the property industry. The strategic financial plan comprises a five-year Medium-Term Plan (MTP) and an Asset Plan, within the context of macroeconomic and property market outlooks provided by external advisers and SEGRO expertise. The central corporate team and each country or regional property team provide a forecast for revenue and costs for the business for the MTP and for total returns from each asset for the Asset Plan. They also provide forecasts on potential development activity from the existing land bank, refurbishment of existing assets (including with regard to current and expected environmental legislation – see pages 64 to 71 for more detail on climate-related financial disclosure) and their expectations of acquisitions and disposals. This process generates a five-year forecast for capital expenditure and associated funding requirements, net income, net asset values and cash flows. The Directors confirm that they have no reason to expect a step-change in the Group’s viability immediately following the five-year period assessed. In addition to the robust ongoing assessment and management of the risks facing the Group, as already set out in this section, the Group has stress tested the MTP. The stress tests consider the risks that could either individually, or in aggregate, threaten the viability of the Group, represented by the breach of key financial ratios and covenants. The risks are based on an individual event or combination of events occurring, using historic data (for example the acute property valuation decline in 2007–2009) and forward-looking probability analysis where available. The process for conducting the Group’s assessment is the responsibility of the Chief Financial Officer and is overseen by the Audit Committee. The main stress tests carried out in 2024, along with their potential impacts, were: – Zero market rental (ERV) growth throughout the period: the main impacts are lower asset values and adjusted NAV throughout the period, with earnings growth reduced in later years. – A scenario where, in addition to the previous scenario, occupier demand for new space slows, manifested in reduced take-up of standing assets and development levels: the main impacts are reduced earnings growth throughout the period (primarily from fewer development completions), while gearing levels benefit from lower capital expenditure. – A scenario where, in addition to the two previous scenarios, capital value decline, manifested through a 100bp increase in yields: the main impacts are lower asset values throughout the period, causing leverage to rise. – Impact of rising interest rates, manifested in a reverse stress test to assess what level of interest rates would cause a covenant breach: a rise of at least six percentage points in the Group’s average interest rate across the period assuming current levels of fixed rate interest and protection from our interest rate caps. Reverse stress testing was also undertaken over the period under review. None of the financial covenants were breached during the five-year period, with gearing remaining comfortably below 160 per cent and interest cover well above 1.25 times. Property valuations would need to fall by around 54 per cent from their 31 December 2024 values to reach the gearing covenant threshold of 160 per cent. A 54 per cent fall in property values would equate to an LTV ratio of approximately 61 per cent. Net property rental income would need to fall by around 66 per cent from 2024 levels to reach the interest cover covenant threshold of 1.25 times. Outside the MTP, the following viability risks were also considered: – A 10 per cent movement in foreign exchange rates: due to long-term hedging arrangements in place foreign exchange movements are not considered a material risk to the Group’s viability. – An inability to refinance maturing debt: the nearest material refinancing requirement is in 2025 (SELP) and 2026 (SEGRO) so the risk to the Group’s viability is towards the start of the period. We tend to refinance long-term debt around 12 months in advance of maturities and, should relationship bank lending, equity and bond markets be unavailable, options to raise liquidity include reductions in capital expenditure and increased asset disposals. – A sustained interruption to the Group’s business continuity: a qualitative assessment of SEGRO’s ability to operate with compromised workspace and IT structure is carried out each year, with regular live scenario tests undertaken by key members of staff with the help of external advisers to ensure responses are rehearsed and mitigations are in place. No material threat to SEGRO’s viability was identified. – Climate-related threats to the portfolio: working with Savills Earth, we conducted a climate risk exposure study to assess the acute and chronic physical risks to our portfolio spanning a period from current day to 2100. Drought stress presents as the most significant emerging chronic hazard but with limited impact on our assets. Heat Stress and River Flood are other areas where there is an increase in risk exposure compared to baseline, but assets exposed to these hazards represent only 5 to 6 per cent of rental value. Therefore, we do not consider such risks to be a threat to the viability of the Group. Further information can be found on pages 65 and 66. The scenarios set out are hypothetical and severe for the purpose of creating outcomes which have the ability to threaten the viability of the Group. We also note that, in the event of a severe threat to liquidity, various options are available to the Group to maintain viability. These options include reduction of any non-committed capital expenditure and acquisitions, selling assets, or reducing cash dividends (including the use of scrip dividends). We are optimistic about the longer-term prospects of our business based on our prime, sustainable portfolio, high levels of occupancy let to a diverse range of customers on long average lease lengths, backed by strong balance sheet with long debt maturity and with well spread diversified refinancing requirements. These are supported by the long-term trends in the warehouse and industrial real estate sector of greater e-commerce penetration of retail sales, supply chain reconfiguration and increasing urbanisation across Europe. 61 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Non-financial information and sustainability information statement This table signposts related non-financial and sustainability information in this report and further reading on our website.

SEGRO’s Scope 1 and 2 emissions (our ‘corporate’ emissions – those covered by Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting) account for less than 1 per cent of our total (Scopes 1 to 3) carbon emissions. Customer energy use in our buildings totalled 382,192 tonnes of CO2e, equating to 52 per cent of total 2024 emissions and the carbon emissions related to the construction of new buildings (known as embodied carbon) represent a further 32 per cent. This is why SEGRO’s two key carbon reduction metrics are our corporate and customer carbon intensity and our embodied carbon intensity. In 2024, we have achieved a 4 per cent reduction in the embodied carbon intensity of our developments; our development teams and contractors have applied innovative approaches to materials and design to reduce the embodied carbon intensity of our buildings. Our corporate and customer carbon intensity saw an increase of 1 per cent, primarily driven by our success in bringing forward our data centre pipeline. However, this is in line with our new science- based net-zero target, and we will continue to work closely with all our customers to ensure they make good progress on that commitment. More of our customers are sharing their energy data with us than ever before, meaning we have actual data covering 87 per cent of our floor area (2023: 81 per cent) improving the accuracy of our emissions figures. Streamlined energy and carbon reporting (SECR) The SECR legislation only covers our corporate emissions which accounts for less than 1 per cent of SEGRO’s total emissions. For our full Scopes 1 to 3 carbon footprint, and all of the metrics we are tracking on our path to net-zero carbon, please see our Responsible SEGRO Report. In line with best practice, we report both a ‘market-based’ and ‘location-based’ figure for emissions from electricity consumption. The market-based approach incorporates SEGRO’s move towards low-carbon energy tariffs on its controlled space (largely its SEGRO-occupied offices, SEGRO-managed common parts and vacant space), whereas the ‘location-based’ approach uses national grid averages (see the notes to the table below for more on location/market). SLR Consulting provide limited independent assurance to ASAE3000. Reporting Methodology The SECR figures above have been prepared in accordance with the GHG Protocol to discharge our regulatory obligation to report greenhouse gas emissions pursuant to section 7 of the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors’ Report) Regulations 2013 and the Companies (Directors’ Report), and Limited Liability Partnerships (Energy and Carbon Report) Regulations 2018; the latter commonly referred to as Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting. We report our data using an operational control approach to define our organisational boundary and have reported emissions following both the location-based and market-based approach, using the IEA residual emission factors for any energy tariffs that are not low-carbon. We have chosen ‘responsible floor area’ as our intensity metric, which is all floor area with Scope 1 and 2 emissions in the reporting year, apportioned to the length of time the space was vacant. ‘Total energy use’ covers electricity, fuels (including transport fuels) and district heating converted to kWh units. Our Responsible SEGRO Report, and a detailed description of our methodology, can be found at SEGRO.com/Responsible-SEGRO/reports- downloads.

Our properties span the UK and Continental Europe and are therefore exposed to a variety of effects from a changing climate. We believe that these climate-related risks, if unmitigated, present a threat to society as well as to our business operations and financial strength over the coming decades. We have taken further steps towards our strategy to reduce the carbon intensity of our business through setting updated science-based reduction targets in our greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, based on our latest plans and projections. We aim to reduce the embodied carbon intensity of our new buildings by 58 per cent, and our corporate and customer emissions intensity by 81 per cent, both by 2034 against an updated 2023 base line, established after having made considerable reductions against our original 2020 baseline. We also have 2050 net-zero targets in these two categories, which make up over 85 per cent of our total Scope 1, 2 and 3 GHG emissions. The reduction of embodied carbon in our developments can be influenced via engagement with our suppliers but we have limited control over emissions from customer activity in our assets. We seek to influence customer emissions through increasing our visibility of customer energy use, the adoption of ‘green’ lease clauses in new lettings, as well as the installation of on-site solar energy generation capacity. There have been no material changes to the nature of the business over the past 12 months which would require a review to our baseline metrics or future targets. We believe this disclosure is consistent with the recommendations and recommended disclosures of the Task Force on Climate related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), including the ‘Guidance for All Sectors’ and the specific guidance applicable to the ‘Materials and Buildings’ industry to the extent to which it is applicable to SEGRO’s operations. It sets out how SEGRO incorporates climate-related risks and opportunities into governance, strategy, risk management, metrics and targets, and how we are responding to stakeholder expectations, national regulations and sector-wide best practice. This is an area of constant evolution and we intend to continue improving the disclosure of our activity and performance. The material information and disclosure on climate impact is provided in this Annual Report but additional complementary information can be found in the 2024 Responsible SEGRO Report. Governance Governance plays a key contributing role to the effective delivery of strategy and SEGRO has a clear governance structure with a single Board comprising an independent Chair, six independent Non-Executive Directors and two Executive Directors. Board oversight of climate-related risks and opportunities The Board is responsible for setting the strategic direction of the Company to ensure its long-term success which includes the delivery and integration of its strategic priorities, including Responsible SEGRO, and their associated targets. Specifically, the Board has oversight of climate- related performance, risks and opportunities and takes into consideration all elements of Responsible SEGRO, including climate-related risks and opportunities, when reviewing and guiding on annual budget and long-term planning matters as well as major strategic and investment decisions.

We also continue to work with external consultants to ensure that we comply with the requirements of the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive and EU Taxonomy comfortably before we become eligible to report them. Identification of climate-related risks and opportunities over the short, medium and long term and their impact on SEGRO’s business, strategy and financial planning Materiality analysis of physical risk In 2024, working with Savills Sustainability in conjunction with Munich Re, JBA and open- source data providers, SEGRO undertook a physical climate risk portfolio screening to assess the acute and chronic physical risks to our portfolio. Building on the first assessment carried out in 2022 and taking into consideration the latest climate data and analytical approaches, the analysis identified where there were significant exposures to physical climate risks at country, portfolio and estate level across a range of climate scenarios, both Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs) and Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs), and over four time horizons out to 2100. The full report from Savills is available at www.SEGRO.com/ Responsible-SEGRO/reports-downloads and more detail can be found in the 2024 Responsible SEGRO Report. For this study, the physical risk from hazards under RCP 4.5/SSP 2-4.5 (3ºC warming by 2100, the intermediate scenario) and RCP 8.5/SSP 5-8.5 (4–5ºC warming by 2100, the high emission scenario) were modelled on 189 estates, covering over 99 per cent of our owned or managed floor area (at 100 per cent) and estimated rental value (ERV, based on SEGRO wholly-owned properties and its share of properties in joint ventures and associates). The outcome of this analysis for the 2050 time horizon is presented in the table on page 66. In summary, the risks to the business from exposure to climate change-related hazards are not considered to have materially changed. Drought Stress, involving an extended period of water-deficit, presents as the most significant emerging chronic climate-related hazard across both RCP/SSP scenarios, with assets exposed to this hazard in the intermediate scenario representing 14 per cent of rental value (28 per cent in the high emissions scenario), focussed on our portfolio in Southern Europe, specifically in Italy, Spain and southern France. The main risks to buildings associated with lack of water are typically connected to fire-weather and heat stress, where high temperatures are experienced for an extended period, for which the portfolio’s exposure to hazards is relatively lower at 1 per cent and 5 per cent respectively. Beyond these risks our portfolio has relatively limited vulnerability to drought stress, as our buildings are not inherently significant users of water with systemic water use restricted to plumbing and fire protection systems, maintained in line with local regulations. River Flood is the other area of potential vulnerability where there is an increase in risk exposure compared to baseline, but assets exposed to this hazard represent only 5 per cent of rental value in the intermediate scenario. 7 per cent of the portfolio, by rental value, is exposed to cold stress in the intermediate scenario, but this is lower than the current exposure meaning that the level of risk is expected to diminish over time. The Board has access to advice relating to climate-related risks and opportunities from internal and external bodies including the in-house Sustainability Team, CBRE which values the portfolio, EcoAct Ltd as environmental consultants and SLR Consulting as providers of partial assurance of Group environmental data, among others. The Chief Executive has overall responsibility for the Responsible SEGRO strategic priorities. The Group Customer and Operations Director is responsible for climate-related risks and opportunities as they may relate to the portfolio. The table on page 64 outlines the ways in which Board and Management Committees provide oversight for SEGRO’s climate change-related strategy and targets. Governance: action during 2024 – The Executive Committee has approved a new set of GHG reduction targets; – The Board received updates on progress against our Responsible SEGRO commitments, including reducing carbon emissions; – The Audit Committee received training from the Commercial Finance Director, Head of Sustainable Finance and Director of Sustainability on upcoming sustainability reporting requirements from the European Commission and the progress SEGRO is making to introduce and integrate them throughout the business; and – The Remuneration Committee approved the targets relating to the Responsible SEGRO annual bonus metrics for Executive Directors and all employees, including ones incentivising actions to reduce carbon emissions throughout the business. Strategy As a long-term property owner, we need to ensure that our buildings are fit for purpose for the future. One of the ways we do this is to build adaptable buildings, suited to more than one customer. This ensures a longer lifespan for the building as well as reducing the risk of vacancy and future refurbishment costs. The Responsible SEGRO framework sets out how we integrate environmental and social considerations into our corporate strategy, including ‘Championing low-carbon growth’ which sets out our approach to reducing carbon emissions from our business activities. This commitment includes Scope 1 and 2 emissions and the material Scope 3 emissions which are Capital Goods (embodied carbon from completed developments) and Downstream Leased Assets (largely corporate emissions and those from customers occupying our buildings). See the Responsible SEGRO Report at www.Segro.com for a full breakdown of our Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions. Strategy: action during 2024 SEGRO completed a number of projects to mitigate climate-related transition risks: – We updated our analysis of climate change physical risk, last carried out in 2022; – We launched a new Energy Strategy for the business; – We continued to invest in our existing portfolio, refurbishing older assets to improve their energy efficiency and carbon footprint and retrofitting solar PV arrays to standing assets to increase our on-site clean energy generating capacity; and 65 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Climate-related financial disclosures continued Climate change physical exposure risk at asset level based on RCP 4.5/SSP 2-4.5 and RCP 8.5/SSP 5-8.5 Hazard Metric Scenario (RCP, Year) Floorspace (at 100%) ERV (at share) Markets most affected River Flood 1 in 100-year return period >0 RCP4.5, 2050 (Undefended) 5% 5% Asset-specific, including London Airports, inland port assets (Hamburg, Gennevilliers) RCP8.5,2050 (Undefended) 5% 6% Asset-specific, including London Airports, inland port assets (Hamburg, Gennevilliers) RCP4.5, 2050 (Defended) 4% 4% France, Poland, Germany, UK and Italy RCP8.5,2050 (Defended) 4% 4% France, Poland, Germany, UK and Italy Storm surge ‘Very High’ Risk SSP2-4.5, 2050 (Undefended) 3% 4% Assets near coastal regions in UK, Germany and the Netherlands SSP5-8.5, 2050 (Undefended) 3% 4% Assets near coastal regions in UK, Germany and the Netherlands SSP2-4.5, 2050 (Defended) 1% 3% Assets near coastal regions in UK, Germany and the Netherlands SSP5-8.5, 2050 (Defended) 1% 3% Assets near coastal regions in UK, Germany and the Netherlands Precipitation Stress ‘High’ and ‘Very High’ Risk SSP2-4.5, 2050 9% 4% Northern Italy SSP5-8.5, 2050 9% 4% Northern Italy Drought Stress ‘High’ and ‘Very High’ Risk SSP2-4.5, 2050 21% 14% Primarily assets in Spain and southern regions of France and Italy SSP5-8.5, 2050 55% 28% Primarily assets in Spain and southern regions of France and Italy Heat Stress ‘High’ and ‘Very High’ Risk SSP2-4.5, 2050 11% 5% Southern France, Northern Italy and Spain SSP5-8.5, 2050 13% 6% Southern France, Northern Italy and Spain Cold Stress ‘High’ and ‘Very High’ Risk SSP2-4.5, 2050 20% 7% Southern and eastern Germany, Poland and Czech Republic SSP5-8.5, 2050 15% 5% Southern and eastern Germany, Poland and Czech Republic Fire Weather Stress ‘High’ and ‘Very High’ Risk SSP2-4.5, 2050 3% 1% Southern France and central Spain SSP5-8.5, 2050 3% 1% Southern France and central Spain The assessment report and data above do not consider any asset specific development or refurbishment mitigation cycles. As part of our sustainable development objectives, assessments are carried out prior to development and adaptation measures, including but not limited to those listed below, are carried out accordingly. Risk Adaptation Techniques Drought Stress and Heat Stress (see R1 below) – Rainwater harvesting systems for internal building use and landscaping – Thermal modelling undertaken and orientation/window positioning of the building reviewed, including external planting to provide shade, brise soleil, louvres, window tinting – Onsite renewable energy generation installed to manage additional cooling requirements River Flood and Precipitation Stress (see R2 below) – Flood risk assessment to be carried out on development or retrospectively – Sustainable urban drainage systems – Retention schemes – ponds/basins 66 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Climate-related financial disclosures continued Materiality analysis of transition risk We work with our stakeholders (primarily our customers, suppliers and investors) and advisers (primarily our valuers and environmental consultants) to monitor, assess and prioritise emerging climate change transition risks. We judge materiality with reference to two main risks: the environmental and reputational risk of failing to meet our carbon emission reduction targets and the financial risk of building redundancy or being unable legally to lease our buildings. We believe that there are three main climate change transition risks with the potential to impact the Group financially: – Environmental legislation: legislation surrounding the sustainability performance of commercial and non-commercial real estate is likely to tighten in future as governments pursue their commitments under the Paris Agreement. We expect this to take the form of regulations but also increasingly some form of carbon tax (included Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanisms introduced by the EU and proposed by the UK) to encourage the use of lower carbon materials and processes. The primary financial risk relates to our ability to rent out our buildings if they fall below emerging environmental legislation. This drives our determination to improve the energy performance of our portfolio both in new development and through refurbishment, measured primarily by increasing the floorspace rated B or better by Energy Performance Certificates and reducing the energy and CO2 intensity of our buildings. – Customer behaviours and preferences: our customers, particularly our largest, international customers, increasingly expect their premises to display high levels of energy efficiency. Energy efficiency not only reduces the operating costs of the building but also helps them achieve their own environmental and carbon reduction targets. The primary financial risk relates to the appeal of our buildings to customers if they are below acceptable levels of energy efficiency and wider environmental sustainability. We are addressing this risk through improving the EPC ratings of our portfolio, increasing the amount of on-site renewable energy generation, and improving the sustainability credentials of our developments. – Access to capital: investors are increasingly discriminating between investment opportunities based on sustainability credentials. The primary financial risk relates to reduced availability and higher cost of capital for companies which do not show strong performance and/or progress in this area. Applying the analysis to strategic planning In terms of decision making, we consider climate-related issues within the following time horizons: – Short term: up to 12 months, in line with the budget setting carried out annually; – Medium term: up to 5 years, in line with the Medium-Term Planning carried out annually; – Long term: up to 10 years, in line with capital investment appraisal cash flows. We assume a 60-year life span for our newly- developed properties. Given the relatively small element of the portfolio exposed to the physical risks, and the fact that our Southern European portfolio contains some of our newest buildings, we believe the overall financial risk to be immaterial and longer term. However, as part of our active asset management and based on the scenario analysis work above, we continue monitor and analyse the asset-level risks and opportunities and their associated financial implications. Our exposure to transition risks is addressed by our response to energy efficiency regulations across our markets, as well our GHG emission reduction targets, both of which are embedded in our strategy. 67 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Climate-related financial disclosures continued Climate-related risks Risk Risk Horizon Corporate Strategy Financial Planning R1 Chronic physical risk Rising temperatures (including extreme heat events) Medium-term risks: – Greater investment in cooling measures inside and outside buildings – Higher operating costs for customers and SEGRO from increased cooling demand – Reduced wellbeing and productivity of workforce Mitigations integrated into developments and refurbishments in properties in high-risk geographies, including water conservation through recycling of rain water and measures to reflect heat and improve shading externally. Measures incorporated into financial appraisals of developments and refurbishments. R2 Acute physical risk Flood and precipitation Short-term risks: – Increased investment in drainage solutions and flood defences – Increased insurance, maintenance and repair costs from growing flood risk – Negative impact on asset valuations All new investments (both acquisitions and developments) incorporate flood risk assessments. Measures taken to mitigate flood risk include rainwater recycling and landscaping to minimise run-off, and balancing pools to cater for run-off from hard- standing areas. Measures incorporated into financial appraisals of acquisitions, refurbishments and developments. Valuers review assets for short-term physical risks as part of twice-yearly appraisals. R3 Policy & legal transition risk Environmental legislation Medium-term risks: In the UK, the MEES (Minimum Energy Efficiency Standard) regulations require buildings to achieve a certain standard of energy performance for them to be leased. At a high level, by 2030, properties will need to achieve a minimum Energy Performance Certificate rating of ‘B’ before they can be leased. Similar legislation is emerging across a number of our other markets. The aim of our corporate strategy is to be compliant with such legislation well in advance of the deadlines. Properties which are unrated or have an EPC below B are expected to be upgraded when they become vacant (approximately 55 per cent of such buildings in the UK are expected to be vacated by 2030). Capex associated with refurbishment, including improving energy efficiency, is factored into short-term budgets and the five-year Medium-Term Plan. The estimated cost to upgrade the UK estate to EPC rating ‘B’ or better is approximately £55 million by 2030, much of which will be absorbed within normal course of refurbishment capex. The figure has decreased primarily due to work carried out during 2023 to improve low-grade EPC premises to at least B-grade. R4 Market transition risk Customer behaviours Short- and medium-term risks: Customers expect to operate their properties efficiently. There is growing evidence of rental discount associated with buildings which display poor sustainability credentials. New developments and refurbishments incorporate sustainability technologies suited to their use and location, including (but not limited to) solar panels (for customer use), electric vehicle charging facilities, low-carbon heating and initiatives to promote local biodiversity and worker wellbeing. Capex associated with refurbishment, including improving energy efficiency, is factored into short-term budgets and the five-year Medium-Term Plan. R5 Reputation transition risk Access to capital Short- and medium-term risks: The Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulation (SFDR) imposes mandatory ESG disclosure obligations for asset managers and other financial markets participants. The SFDR is supported by the EU Taxonomy regulation, imposing reporting requirements on non-financial companies. We have established a Green Finance Framework which complies with International Capital Market Association and the Loan Market Association principles. The Framework sets out the investment criteria for deploying and allocating the proceeds of green finance instruments, including in energy efficient and low-carbon buildings. SEGRO will report as required against emerging EU non-financial reporting regulations. When a decision is made to raise capital, consideration is given to whether the issue should fall under the Green Finance Framework (e.g. a Green Bond). Climate-related opportunities Opportunity Risk Horizon Corporate Strategy Financial Planning O1 Energy & fuel Onsite renewable energy generation Short- and medium-term opportunity: revenue and zero-emission energy potential from installing PV panels on building roofs. PV panels are installed on roofs where feasible and all new developments are constructed with roofs to support PV panels if a full array is not installed during construction. Energy saving from solar PV is an important element in creating net-zero carbon buildings on a full life basis. The costs of solar panels are incorporated in new development and refurbishment capex. Revenues and cost savings, which are currently a small proportion of overall revenues, are split between being incorporated into rents and separately identified. 68 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Climate-related financial disclosures continued Risk management Climate-related risks are identified and assessed using our risk management framework set out on page 54. Principal risks are defined as those which could intolerably exceed our risk appetite, considering both inherent and residual impact, and cause material harm to the Group. Engagement with stakeholders We engage with our stakeholders throughout the year on many different topics, although the subjects of climate change and the need to reduce corporate and customer GHG emissions have featured more prominently over the past year. More detail on our stakeholder engagement, including on climate-related matters, can be found on pages 18 to 20. Identifying and assessing climate-related risks Although climate change presents opportunities as well as risks for SEGRO, Climate Change is identified as a Principal Risk within Environmental Sustainability and Climate Change on the Risk Register. Climate-related risks are also considered within other principal risks including Political and Regulatory, Development plan execution and Major event/Business disruption. For each risk, our Risk Register tracks: – Description of the risk and the potential effects; – Identifies the Executive Director with overall ownership and the Risk Manager responsible for monitoring and managing the risk; – An annual probability and potential impact, to enable prioritisation; – Mitigations in place as well as the owner of each mitigating action. At the current time and based on asset-level scenario analysis, no material capital expenditure has been identified beyond normal course development and refurbishment costs associated with mitigating assets in high-risk locations against climate change-related risks. Such risks, and related capital expenditure, are considered as part of the annual asset planning process associated with the five-year Medium- Term Plan. Managing and mitigating climate-related risks Our process for recognising, monitoring and mitigating Principal Risks, including climate- related risks, is set out on page 57 of the Annual Report. The Board has overall responsibility for ensuring that risk is effectively and consistently managed across the Group. The Audit Committee monitors the effectiveness of the Group’s risk management process on behalf of the Board. In every year, the Audit Committee twice reviews the process of how the Group Risk Register has been compiled and the Board twice reviews the principal and emerging risks. The Board also reviews and approves the Group’s risk appetite at least once every year. In its Responsible SEGRO framework, SEGRO has committed itself to achieving science-based targets for reducing Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions (including corporate and customer emissions) to ensure compliance with a less than 1.5ºC increase in global temperatures. A key risk surrounding these targets is that we cannot be certain to achieve them given the lack of visibility and control relating to customers’ energy use in our buildings and the embodied carbon emissions in developments. We believe that we have sufficient full or partial visibility to be able to provide sufficiently accurate information to be consistent with the TCFD’s recommended disclosures and we are working hard to improve our visibility, and therefore accuracy, in this regard. The Metrics and Targets section below provides details on how we monitor these risks and our progress over the past year. Risk management: action during 2024 We have an established Mandatory Sustainability Policy and internal targets associated with not only reducing emissions but also working with our customers and supply chain to achieve greater visibility of those emissions. These targets are integrated within a Responsible SEGRO element of the bonus metrics throughout the organisation. – Materiality: we finalised our Double Materiality Assessment (DMA) in line with the requirements of new European Commission (EC) reporting requirements. This assessment reviews not only the impact of SEGRO’s economic activity on society and the environment but also the social and environmental risks and opportunities on SEGRO’s financial position and performance. See pages 23 and 24; – Sustainability Policy: In 2024, we made significant updates to the Mandatory Sustainability Policy including the addition of requirements and guidance to maximise alignment of new and existing buildings with the EU Taxonomy and restrictions on new gas installations for heating buildings. We will continue to keep the Policy under review and adjust and tighten it in response to emerging regulation and market norms to ensure that it is always in line with best-in-class practice; – Reporting requirements: The new European reporting regulations establish a number of very specific requirements for buildings to be classed as ’sustainable’. Our development and asset management teams continue to engage with external consultants to align our policies with the new requirements. Metrics and targets To enable our stakeholders to consider and compare our reporting, we contribute to a number of externally-recognised benchmarks and disclose metrics in line with externally- recognised frameworks including Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB), Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and the EPRA Best Practices Recommendations on Sustainability Reporting. We will also report in line with new and evolving European Sustainability Reporting requirements which encompass disclosures from a number of these external frameworks. In order to ensure that we also report on those issues that we can have a direct impact upon, we refer to our double-materiality assessment (pages 23 and 24), and identify the key associated metrics that are material to the business. Below are the climate-related metrics and targets which we monitor. Those in bold are incorporated into the Responsible SEGRO elements of the annual bonus of all employees. There are no metrics specifically mapped to Risk 2 (flood), although Risks 1 and 2 are addressed in the Scenario analysis on page 66. We are monitoring and addressing the asset-level risks and opportunities but there is not yet a meaningful, measurable metric for these areas. 69 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Climate-related financial disclosures continued Financial Climate-Related Metric 2024 2023 Narrative Associated risk or opportunity Assets Policy and Legal Corporate and customer carbon intensity of the portfolio (based on the CO2e emissions of the portfolio for which we have visibility of the data), in kgCO2e/sq m of AUM (science-based target) 2023 baseline: 36.1kgCO2e/sq m 2034 interim target: 6.9kgCO2e/sq m (-81% vs baseline) 2050 target: net-zero 36.4 36.1* Slightly increased by progression of data centre pipeline.

There was a subsequent competitive cash offer, to which we decided not to respond. Instead, in accordance with our focus on capital allocation and returns, we reached an agreement with the purchaser to acquire six high-quality properties in Germany and the Netherlands. Not surprisingly there were a number of ad hoc meetings as we navigated this transaction. Throughout we considered the potential impacts on SEGRO’s stakeholders, as well as how the transaction fitted within our long-term strategy, our near-term plan and our goal ‘to be the best property company’. You can read more about these activities and other key Board decisions taken during the year on pages 84 and 85. Board changes As you will read in the Nomination Committee Report, we welcomed Marcus Sperber as an Independent Non-Executive Director on 1 May 2024. Marcus brings a wealth of experience, from both other Board appointments and the real estate industry. He has already proven himself to be a valuable addition through his insightful contributions to discussions in the boardroom. You can read more about the process to appoint Marcus and his induction to the Board and the Company on page 97. Please join me in welcoming Marcus to the Board. Delivering our strategy Dear shareholder, As Chair of SEGRO, I am pleased to introduce our Board’s Governance Report for 2024. We have a long-established and robust governance framework, which continues to promote the long-term sustainable success of the Company. Key activities of the Board in 2024 2024 has been another active year for the Board. We remain focused on delivering our well-established strategy in the context of the changing macroeconomic environment and occupier markets, keeping one eye on the horizon to ensure our decisions are mindful of the long-term impact on our stakeholders. The SEGRO Values and our governance framework are mutually reinforcing. Equity placing In March, we approved an equity placing which raised £907 million of gross proceeds to pursue additional growth opportunities and take advantage of potential acquisitions, which may arise, whilst maintaining a strong balance sheet. Mindful of previous feedback from some of our shareholders, we launched a retail offer alongside the placing to enable retail shareholders to participate in the transaction. Read about our strategy on page 16 Find out more about Board changes during the year in the Nomination Committee Report on page 91 Andy Harrison Chair 73 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information External Board performance review In accordance with the requirements of the UK Corporate Governance Code 2018 (the Code), the Board undertakes an external evaluation every three years. During the year, with support from the Senior Independent Director and the Company Secretary, I oversaw this year’s external Board performance review which was led by Clare Chalmers. I am pleased to report that the review concluded that the Board and its Committees continue to operate effectively and perform well. You can read about the review process and the findings in more detail on pages 89 and 90. Stakeholder engagement The Board continues to be mindful of all our stakeholders in our decision making, and recognises our responsibility to wider society. On pages 84 to 88, you will find our Section 172 Statement and further information on how the Board has engaged with our six stakeholder groups throughout the year. Each year, we write to our larger shareholders, offering them the opportunity to meet privately and discuss their thoughts on the Company and the wider market with myself, the Senior Independent Director and the Chairs of the Audit and Remuneration Committees. In response, I met with some shareholders in early 2024 and appreciated the opportunity to gain insight into the matters which were important to them. In addition, as Chair of the Remuneration Committee, Simon Fraser led an extensive consultation as part of the development of our updated Directors’ Remuneration Policy, during which approximately 60 per cent of the share register, key proxy voting agencies and employees were invited to share their views. You can read more about this engagement in his Letter on page 105 and in the Remuneration Policy from page 123. As always, we will continue to engage with shareholders to ensure an ongoing dialogue regarding our governance approach, and any feedback is shared with the Board as a whole. Annual General Meeting (AGM) On behalf of the Board, I would like to extend my thanks to those shareholders who joined us in April for the 2024 AGM, where our Chief Executive delivered a presentation on SEGRO’s performance in 2023 and the early part of 2024. All shareholders received communications for the AGM at least 20 working days in advance of the meeting and were invited to ask questions, either in the room or by email in advance of the meeting. The other Directors and I were also available to meet with attendees informally, both before and after the meeting, and we look forward to doing so again at this year’s AGM which will take place on 30 April 2025 at RSA House. The Company proposes separate resolutions on each substantially separate issue, with voting conducted by a poll. At the 2024 AGM, 85 per cent of the issued share capital voted (2023: 80 per cent) and all the proposed resolutions were passed. Following the meeting, the results of votes lodged for and against each resolution were announced to the London Stock Exchange and published on our website. In addition to the usual business at the 2025 AGM, we are seeking shareholder approval for the new Remuneration Policy as mentioned earlier in my Letter, with the current Policy having been approved in 2022 for three years, and an amendment to the rules of the Long Term Incentive Plan, which will allow us to implement the new Policy. Further information on the new Policy can be found on pages 123 to 131 and in the Notice of Meeting. The Board believes that all resolutions proposed, including those highlighted above, are in the best interests of the Company and we hope we can count on shareholder support in passing them. Martin Moore Some of you may have heard the sad news about the death of Martin Moore at the end of last year. Martin stepped down from the Board at the end of 2023 after serving nine years. He was an excellent Board member who made a great contribution during his tenure and will be sorely missed by all of us at SEGRO and the wider industry. We send our deepest condolences to Martin’s family. Thank you Most importantly, I would like to extend my thanks to all our employees for their hard work and dedication to the Company during the year, as well as my fellow Board members for their valued insights and contributions.

In November 2024, along with the Executive Committee and the Company Secretary, they spent two days doing just that. In preparation for the session, a full suite of papers covering a wide range of topics were shared with the Board to ensure the Directors were well-informed and to set the context for discussion. Several guest speakers, both internal experts and external advisers, were invited to share insights on their areas of expertise which further informed the conversation. The Board was joined by: – an economist from UBS, one of the Company’s brokers, who shared his perspective and set the scene on the macro outlook; – the Co-Head of Global Property Equities and Portfolio Manager at Janus Henderson, a major investor of REITs globally and a top 10 shareholder in SEGRO, who provided his perspective on the equity capital markets and SEGRO, and shared how his fund makes its investment decisions; and – the Head of EMEA Logistics & Industrial and Retail Research and Head of Logistics & Industrial EMEA from Cushman and Wakefield, who provided their views on the industrial property market.

On the second day, the Group HR Director led a conversation on people planning and the strategy for retaining, attracting and developing the best talent whilst continuing the commitment to drive diversity within the business, and the Chief of Staff updated the Board on the SELP joint venture and Data Centres. Finally, the Strategy Event concluded with a free form discussion where the Board reflected on the key takeaways from the sessions and how these could support our long-term ambition ‘to be the best property company’ whilst navigating the near-term challenges. At the conclusion of the Strategy Event, the Board confirmed it remained comfortable that the strategic direction of the business continued to be appropriate and agreed it was supportive of the priorities identified by the Executive team for the coming year. Board Strategy Event 2024 Board leadership and Company purpose continued 1 Board visit to Milan 2 SEGRO Logistics Park East Midlands Gateway 1 2 80 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Purpose, Values and Culture How the Board lives our Purpose and Values We are proud of our Purpose – to create the space that enables extraordinary things to happen – and our five Values which support our culture and align with our strategy. They are well embedded in the business and form the basis of our workforce policies. They help to unify employees and describe the core beliefs about how SEGRO does business, acting as a universal language across our business and the countries in which we operate. It is essential that the Directors lead by example and embody the Values. Executive Directors, being more visible leaders around the business, help to set the tone. Consistent feedback from the recent Board performance reviews demonstrate that all Directors feel they can contribute, speak freely and are not constrained in the boardroom. The Chair encourages open debate and no one individual dominates the discussion. The seasoned relationships between the Board members mean that they are comfortable to say it like it is, whilst their diverse backgrounds and well-balanced experience bring varying perspectives to Board discussions, and the regular refreshing of appointments ensures a fresh perspective and challenge. Together, this fosters a supportive environment which promotes true diversity of thought and constructive challenge. How the Board manages and monitors our culture The Board believes that our culture can be defined by: – a strong desire to create a successful business we can be proud of; – trust and strong professional integrity – we deliver on promises; – pragmatism – a ‘sleeves up’ approach regardless of status; – thoughtful, detailed and measured decision making; – respect and transparency; and – caring about people and taking an interest in their wellbeing. The Board continues to monitor the culture of the Company through indicators which serve as a temperature check. They consider: – the results of the annual employee engagement survey ‘Your Say’; – feedback from the workforce engagement sessions led by the Non-Executive Directors; – internal audit reports; – data on employee turnover; – feedback from office and site visits by Executive Directors and the Board as a whole; – any whistleblowing incidents; – any health and safety incidents; – any breaches of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics; and – the results of the annual Customer Satisfaction surveys. Outcome The Board considers that, on the whole, there is a strong culture at SEGRO of which our employees are proud. During the most recent Your Say survey, 95 per cent of employees said that they understood SEGRO’s Purpose, Values and behaviours and 87 per cent said they felt proud to work at SEGRO. We have a unifying set of Values that drive our culture. When the Directors are together, they live the Values as follows: Say it like it is The Directors are honest and transparent in dealings with each other and those who interact with them both inside and outside of the boardroom. The Chair encourages constructive debate and challenge during meetings. Stand side by side The Non-Executive Directors bring to the Board their wide- ranging and extensive knowledge and experience from other businesses. The Directors are supportive and take collective responsibility for decisions. Keep one eye on the horizon The Directors look to the long term in their decision making. They want to understand future trends and how the Company can use them for the benefit of all of our stakeholders in the short, medium and longer term. If the door is closed… The Non-Executive Directors support the Executive Directors to find solutions to more complex issues and provide assistance where difficult judgement calls and decisions need to be made. Does it make the boat go faster? The Directors look at different ways of working to create effective relationships and discuss regularly where they can best add value. Board leadership and Company purpose continued 81 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Promoting long-term sustainable success SEGRO’s principal duty is to deliver lasting, sustainable success and generate value for shareholders and other investors, whilst being mindful of our impact on stakeholders and wider society. The Board facilitates this through robust governance processes and by ensuring that effective risk management is in place, against which key decisions are made on behalf of the Company. SEGRO performed well during 2024. The long-term structural drivers at play in the industrial and logistics sector and its prime portfolio of modern, sustainable warehouses in the most supply-constrained markets, helped to support occupier demand despite the macroeconomic environment. The Group contracted £91 million of new headline rent, through capturing reversion and growing rents on the existing portfolio and also completed 374,700 sq m of new space, capable of delivering £37 million of new headline rent. This activity resulted in further growth in earnings and resulted in the Board recommending an increase in dividend for our shareholders. The Board was also pleased to hear about the progress that has been made against the Responsible SEGRO targets during the year, as detailed further on pages 21 to 28. Looking ahead, the combination of new rental income from the development programme, and the benefits of active asset management of our existing portfolio, a key strategic area for the business, should enable us to drive sustainable growth in both earnings and dividends. The Chief Executive’s statement on pages 11 to 15, along with the Financial review on pages 44 to 49, set out in much more detail our strategy and the reasons why we are confident in the long-term prospects for our business. Investing for the long term Since the Company’s principal duty is to deliver long-term success, much of the Board’s decision making is focused around ensuring that the Company is sustainable in the long term. – Each year, the Board considers our Medium Term Plan, which assesses the opportunities and risks for the Company over the following five years, and forms the basis of our Viability Statement. – At the annual Strategy Event, the Board takes time to consider the long-term strategy of the business, incorporating presentations and discussions on longer‑term opportunities and threats to the business. – Throughout the year, the Board has overall responsibility for the Company’s approach to risk and ensures that risk is effectively and consistently managed. It reviews the measures in place to mitigate the near- and longer-term risks (including emerging risks) to the business. Real estate is inherently a long-term industry and the Board therefore takes this into consideration in all its decision making. In the Chief Executive’s statement on page 11, you can read more about how we have adapted our long-held strategy to respond to the current environment. Identifying and managing conflicts of interest The Board operates a policy to identify and, when appropriate, manage actual or potential conflicts of interest affecting Directors. Prior to taking on any additional external commitments, Directors are required to submit any actual or potential conflicts of interest they may have with the Company to the Chair or Senior Independent Director for approval. Any conflicts of interest are recorded and approved by the Board at each meeting. Directors have a duty to keep the Board updated about any changes to these conflicts. Effective controls and necessary resources The Board has a responsibility to ensure that appropriate controls and resources are in place to enable the Company to achieve its long-term goals. As detailed on page 79 there is a Schedule of Matters Reserved for Decision by the Board, which is available to view at www.SEGRO.com. You can read about the Company’s approach to risk and risk management on pages 50 to 53, whilst page 104 contains further details about the Audit Committee’s role in ensuring that robust processes have been put in place to ensure risks are identified, evaluated and managed. The Board regularly discusses the Company’s principal risks, along with new and emerging risks, and considers how they may impact on our long-term goals. The Board is ever mindful of the need to balance the pursuit of opportunities without taking unacceptable or excessive risk and ensures that the Company has the appropriate resources, in terms of time, people and funding to do so. Code of Business Conduct and Ethics The Board takes an active interest in ensuring that appropriate policies and practices are in place, consistent with the Company’s Purpose and Values. One such policy is our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (Code of Ethics) which is core to the way in which our business is run, the work we do, and to our reputation. The Code of Ethics sets out the high ethical standards expected of all our people in their daily work to enable us to act with honesty and integrity. The Code of Ethics covers various policies on a wide range of activities and any breaches are thoroughly investigated with appropriate action taken. The Board receives regular reports on compliance with the Code of Ethics and the Company’s policy on whistleblowing, which sets out the procedure by which employees and any third parties can use a confidential external service to raise concerns. During the year, the Company received a whistleblowing allegation through Safecall, its independent whistleblowing service, which, following a thorough investigation, was found to be unsubstantiated, and was therefore closed. The Code of Ethics also sets out our approach to the human rights of all our stakeholders. Our due diligence to combat slavery and human trafficking is set out in our Modern Slavery Statement which is approved by the Board each year and is on our website at www.SEGRO.com. See page 132. Our Supplier Code of Conduct ensures that all suppliers adhere to high ethical standards and reinforces SEGRO’s commitment to operating our business in an ethical and honest way. The Audit Committee is responsible for ensuring that appropriate safeguards are in place for the detection of fraud and prevention of bribery, including overseeing and monitoring the Group’s anti-bribery and corruption policies and procedures.

Chair The Chair is responsible for the leadership of the Board and its overall effectiveness in directing the Company and promoting an open environment for challenge and debate. He encourages participation by all the Directors, facilitates constructive relations and creates the right atmosphere to promote a culture of open discussion and effective decision making. Along with the other Non-Executive Directors, he is responsible for holding the Executives to account against agreed objectives. Chief Executive The Chief Executive recommends the Group’s strategy to the Board and is responsible for its implementation and for the Group’s overall performance. He ensures that the interests of the Group’s stakeholders are taken into account with regards to the long-term impact of the Board’s decisions. Senior Independent Director The Senior Independent Director acts as a sounding board for the Chair and serves as an intermediary for Directors and shareholders should communication through the normal channels fail. She leads the appraisal of the Chair’s performance each year and would, as required, chair the Nomination Committee when it considers his succession. Availability of the Chair, Chief Executive and the Company Secretary The Chair, the Chief Executive and the Company Secretary are always available for the Directors to discuss any issues concerning Board meetings or other matters. All Directors have access to the advice and services of the Company Secretary, who is responsible for ensuring compliance with Board procedures. Directors also have the right to seek independent professional advice at the Company’s reasonable expense should they so wish. Our Governance Framework The Board is responsible for creating and delivering shareholder value by setting the strategic direction of the Group. The Board delegates a number of its responsibilities to its three sub-Committees. The Committee Chairs provide regular updates on the activities of each Committee at Board meetings. The Board The Executive Committee supports the Chief Executive with the development and implementation of Group strategy, the management of the business and the discharge of responsibilities delegated by the Board. It typically meets formally each month and informally most weeks, and during the year there are dedicated sessions to discuss strategic priorities as well as ad hoc sessions to keep up to date with more day-to-day operational issues. The Executive Committee delegates some of its responsibilities to a number of management committees, membership of each includes at least one member of the Executive Committee. Executive Committee The Leadership team comprises the members of the Executive Committee and their senior direct reports, each of whom has responsibility for the Group’s operations in a particular geography or for one or more of the Group’s main functional areas.

In this section we explain how the Board has engaged with our stakeholders and how that engagement has influenced their decision making. When making decisions which impact our key stakeholders the Board considers the factors set out in s172, including: the likely consequences of any decision in the long term; Pages 2; 4; 15 to 17; and 82 the interest of the Company’s employees; Pages 18; 28; 88; and 116 and 117 the need to foster the Company’s business relationships with suppliers, Pages 19; 27; 41; 87; and 132 the impact of the Company’s operations on the community and the environment; Pages 21 to 29; 63 to 71; 86; and 88 the desirability of the Company maintaining a reputation of high standards of business conduct; and Pages 50 to 53; 81; 82; and 99 the need to act fairly as between members of the Company. Pages 16 and 17; 20; 40 to 49; 84 and 87 Equity placing and retail offer The Board approved the launch of an equity placing with the aim of raising approximately £800 million gross proceeds through the issue of new shares in the Company, in order to pursue additional growth opportunities, including new and existing development projects and to take advantage of potential acquisition opportunities, whilst maintaining a strong balance sheet. The placing was accompanied by a separate retail offer which enabled UK-based retail shareholders to participate in the equity raise and acquire additional shares in SEGRO at the placing price. In light of the strong demand from both existing and new investors following the launch, the Board Committee then took the decision to increase the size of the planned equity raise and, in aggregate, the equity placing and retail offer successfully raised gross proceeds of £907 million and comprised the issue of 110,585,366 new shares at 820 pence per share. Prior to the placing a number of larger shareholders were consulted and the principles of pre-emption were respected throughout the allocation process. In considering the options available to raise additional capital the Board considered many factors including external market conditions and the risk of them impacting the share price. It was also mindful of previous feedback from a small number of shareholders who were disappointed in being unable to participate in previous similar placings. The Board believes that this approach was in the best interests of all our shareholders. Impacted stakeholders Investors Employees s172 factor considered Link to our strategy – Efficient capital & corporate structure Section 172(1) Statement The Board confirms that during the year ended 31 December 2024 it has acted in the way it considers, in good faith, would be most likely to promote the long-term success of the Company for the benefit of its members as a whole whilst having due regard to the matters set out in section 172(1) (a) to (f) of the Companies Act 2006 (s172). Each of the Directors are mindful of their duties under s172 to run the Company for the benefit of its shareholders, and in doing so, to take into account the long-term impact of any decisions on stakeholder relationships and the impact of the Company’s activities on the environment, whilst maintaining its reputation for high standards of business conduct at all times. The Company cannot operate in a vacuum. We can only succeed if we conduct ourselves in a responsible manner and have positive relationships with all of our stakeholders. Stakeholder engagement from the Board’s perspective Key Board decisions in 2024 84 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Stakeholders continued Recommended offer for Tritax EuroBox plc In September 2024 the Company announced that it had reached an agreement with the Board of Tritax EuroBox plc (Tritax EuroBox) on the terms of a recommended all-share offer for the entire issued share capital of Tritax EuroBox. The Board considered this to be a compelling offer for the shareholders in both companies, delivering an uplift in value for Tritax EuroBox shareholders and adding a portfolio of well-diversified and high-quality logistics assets to SEGRO’s portfolio on attractive terms. The following month, Titanium Ruth Bidco Limited (Brookfield) made a competing cash offer which was accepted and recommended by the Tritax EuroBox board in place of the SEGRO offer. With the support of key advisers, the Board considered carefully our position and the options available to us and, aligned with our commitment to be disciplined in our approach to capital allocation, agreed not to increase or improve the original offer. Instead, we were able to reach an agreement with Brookfield in January 2025 to acquire, through the SELP joint venture, a portfolio of six Tritax EuroBox logistics assets located in Germany and the Netherlands, which would complement our existing strong presence in both markets and match our investment criteria in terms of returns, location and quality. The transaction is conditional on European Union anti-trust clearance, which is expected in the first quarter of 2025. Throughout the process the Board has acted in what it considers to be the best interests of SEGRO’s shareholders and in reaching an alternative agreement with Brookfield to acquire the assets has lived our value of ‘If the door is closed …’. Impacted stakeholders Investors Customers Suppliers Employees s172 matters considered Link to our strategy – Disciplined capital allocation Approval of transactions over £100 million All acquisitions, developments and disposals over £100 million require Board approval. During 2024, the Board: – approved the acquisition of a 98,000 sq m modern logistics estate in Eindhoven, the Netherlands; – approved the option to purchase a brownfield site in Paris, France; – approved the sale of SEGRO Victoria Industrial Estate, UK; – supported SELP’s acquisition of six Tritax EuroBox logistics assets located in Germany and the Netherlands from Brookfield following its acquisition of the EuroBox portfolio; and – approved the acquisition of Enfield Distribution Park, UK. Our ambition ‘to be the best property company’ underpins these Board discussions ensuring that we have the right assets in order to drive long-term out performance of our portfolio. Impacted stakeholders Customers Suppliers Communities Environment Investors s172 matters considered Link to our strategy – Disciplined capital allocation – Responsible SEGRO Appointment of Marcus Sperber as an Independent Non-Executive Director The Board approved the appointment of Marcus Sperber as an Independent Non-Executive Director with effect from 1 May 2024. Marcus brings a wealth of experience in the real estate and investment management industry, and, along with the other Non-Executive Directors, he brings independent judgement, scrutiny and constructive challenge to Board discussions in order to drive long-term success. Impacted stakeholders Employees Investors Customers Suppliers Communities Environment s172 matters considered Link to our strategy – Nurturing talent Key Board decisions in 2024 continued 85 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Stakeholders continued How does the Board engage? – During its visits to Milan and Coventry, the Board toured assets occupied by Amazon and DHL; • At SEGRO Logistics Park Novara, an Amazon representative demonstrated the logistics operations behind a customer purchase on the website, and shared the innovative solutions being employed to improve the customer experience; and • the Board also heard directly from a DHL representative about the acquisition of UK Mail and the importance of the new, modern facility at SEGRO Park Coventry in enabling growth by doubling DHL’s handling capacity and supporting the local community through the creation of over 600 new jobs. – At SEGRO Logistics Park Northampton, the Board visited one of the largest UK pre-lets, being constructed on behalf of our customer, Yusen Logistics. – Customer executives from Amazon, Royal Mail and Digital Realty joined the Board at the annual Strategy Event to discuss their businesses, future trends, and their experiences and expectations of SEGRO. – The Board considers the results of the annual customer satisfaction survey.

It approves the Modern Slavery Statement and maintains oversight of the Modern Slavery and Labour Standards Code and Code of Business Conduct and Ethics to ensure that these standards are maintained by our suppliers.

Suppliers Investors We work with 3,069 suppliers across the Group from a diverse range of industries.

Impact/Outcome of engagement – The Board monitors progress against our Responsible SEGRO targets to ensure that they remain appropriate, stretching and in the best interests of all of our stakeholders. – It is mindful of the environmental impact of our developments and net-zero ambitions when considering capital allocation requests. – Reports on Sustainability and updates on compliance with the Mandatory Sustainability Policy enable the Board to lead the business in a way which it believes is most likely to promote its long-term sustainable success. – Regular updates from internal and external experts on current and forthcoming legislation, regulation and reporting requirements ensure the Board stays well-informed and the Company continues to comply with requirements with regards to ESG. How does the Board engage? The Board feels strongly that, in order to be authentic, meaningful and received positively by our employees, its approach to engaging with the wider workforce should mirror the Company’s Value to ‘say it like it is’. As the Group has a non-unionised business with a headcount of 466 employees based in multiple countries, an alternative arrangement (as permitted by Provision 5 of the Code) remains the most appropriate option. This involves a three-stage approach which, whilst now well-embedded, remains under review to ensure it continues to be effective and encompasses the spirit of enabling the voice of the employee to be heard in the boardroom. 1. Individual meetings with the Non-Executive Directors Each year, our Non-Executive Directors hold a series of informal meetings with employees from across the business to hear first-hand how they feel about working at SEGRO. The Board appreciates the value of hearing a variety of views directly from a broad cross-section of employees in different roles, grades and offices to gain a deeper understanding of the issues that are important to them without members of the Leadership team present. In 2024, pairs of Non-Executive Directors led three sessions: one thematic session which focused on Executive Remuneration (which is detailed further on page 117), and two sessions on more general topics during their visits to Milan and Coventry. We felt that this was a good balance between focused conversations on topics the Board wanted to hear more from employees on as well as offering the flexibility for employees to share their views on areas of importance for them. Discussion areas included Responsible SEGRO, our ambition to ‘be the best property company’ and what this means for employees, Nurturing talent and future priorities for the business and individual teams. On the whole, the Directors found that employees welcomed the opportunity to participate and were forthcoming in sharing their thoughts. Non-attributable feedback from each session was relayed at the following Board meeting for discussion. 2. Presentations at Board and Committee meetings The Board regularly invites representatives from around the business to present at Board and Committee meetings and in 2024 welcomed a number of guest speakers as detailed on page 79. Each of the Committee Chairs also met with employees in relation to the business of their Committees. 3. Informal meetings During the year, the Board travelled to Milan, Italy and Coventry, UK where they toured local assets with the Co-Heads of Italy, Head of National Markets and their teams. During their visits they also took the opportunity to hold informal lunches at the offices, where they enjoyed speaking with colleagues, and dinners with the local management teams. Other Board engagement in 2024 – Two of our Non-Executive Directors, Carol Fairweather and Sue Clayton, joined representatives from the Executive Committee and Leadership team for a panel discussion on inclusion for International Women’s Day. – Members of the Executive Committee and their teams joined the Directors ahead of the December Board meeting for interactive sessions focusing on the Company’s strategic priorities, where the Directors heard about the achievements and key learnings in each area during the year and noted the objectives for 2025. Impact/Outcome of engagement – We take meaningful action to address the areas of importance raised by our people during the workforce engagement sessions and their feedback is an important consideration in our people strategy and planning. – Feedback from previous workforce engagement sessions helped to shape our enhanced family- friendly policies that were launched during the year, demonstrating our commitment to supporting employees during key moments in their lives. – Board discussions benefit from the wealth of specialist knowledge which is regularly shared by employees on their areas of focus. – Meeting with a diverse group of employees at all levels, and not just senior leaders, enables the Board to experience the SEGRO culture first-hand and see how our employees uphold the Purpose and Values. Environment Employees The regions in which we operate and local areas impacted by the development and ongoing operations of our assets. We employ 466 people across nine countries with a diverse range of skills. 88 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Composition, succession and evaluation External Board performance review This Annual Report is being prepared under the 2018 Code, however we have updated references from ‘Board evaluation’ to ‘Board performance review’ to align with the provisions in the 2024 Code, which will largely apply for financial years starting on or after 1 January 2025. In line with the requirements of the Code, the Board undertakes an externally facilitated performance review every three years. In the intervening two years, internal reviews of the Board, its Committees and the performance of individual Directors are carried out. The last external Board performance review took place in 2021 and therefore an externally facilitated review was undertaken in 2024. The external performance review process was overseen by the Chair, supported by the Senior Independent Director (SID) and the Company Secretary. Following a tender process, Clare Chalmers was appointed as external facilitator. Clare Chalmers does not have any other connection with the Company or individual Directors and, together with a number of notable independent Board evaluators, established The International Register of Board Reviewers (TIRBR), which is aligned to the four guiding principles for board reviewers and three guiding principles for clients, which can be viewed at www.tirbr.com. Agreed areas of focus for the 2024 review – The size and composition of the Board and its Committees and the balance of the skills, experience, independence and diversity, and any enhancements that may be beneficial over the next few years; – Board succession planning, including the appointments process, induction and training, and oversight of talent management for the wider business; – the main strategic considerations and challenges, how the Board inputs to the development of strategy, and the effectiveness of Board Strategy Events or other strategic sessions held throughout the year; – Board dynamics, including the tone of meetings, how the Board supports and challenges executive management and participation and interaction between Non-Executive Directors and senior management in and between Board meetings; – the Chair’s leadership and the performance of individual Directors including the roles of Senior Independent Director and Committee Chairs; – stakeholder engagement and the consideration of stakeholder interests as part of Board discussion and decision making; and – Board meetings and papers, including the support from the Secretariat function. 1. Tender and appointment Initial reach out to 10 service providers. Following review of their proposals, three shortlisted providers were selected to meet with the Chair and the SID and assessed against a scorecard. Following the meetings, Clare Chalmers was appointed. 2. Agree scope, process and timings Clare Chalmers met with the Chair and the SID to discuss the scope, process and timings for the 2024 review. It was agreed that the most effective format would be to use a short questionnaire followed by 1:1 interviews. 3. Board and Committee observation Clare Chalmers attended the July Board, Audit and Remuneration Committee meetings in person to observe first-hand how these meetings were conducted and the interactions amongst attendees. 4. Document review Clare Chalmers was provided with the requested governance-related documentation to enable a thorough review of the operation of the Board and Committees throughout the year. 5. Online questionnaires Questionnaires covering the agreed scope were completed by the Executive and Non-Executive Directors, the Group HR Director and the Company Secretary, answering questions related to Board composition and culture, Board oversight, Stakeholders, Board efficiency, and operation of Board Committees, where relevant. 6. 1:1 interviews Structured 90-minute 1:1 interviews were held with the Executive and Non-Executive Directors, the Group HR Director, the Company Secretary and key external advisers (external auditor, internal auditor and remuneration consultant). 7. Feedback and actions A comprehensive report was shared with the Chair and the SID outlining the findings and a list of recommendations. Clare Chalmers attended the December Board meeting to present the final report and the Board reviewed and discussed the recommendations before agreeing the key actions for the upcoming year. Overview of the 2024 external Board performance review process 89 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Composition, succession and evaluation continued Conclusions from the 2024 review The overall picture from the review was positive and concluded that the Board and its Committees continued to operate effectively and perform well. The key findings highlighted, in particular, that: – SEGRO benefits from a strong and well-balanced Board, bringing together experienced Non-Executive Directors with a range of skills and backgrounds; – the Board is constructive and engaged, with good challenge, debate and accountability, and is well supported by the wider management team; and – the Board and Committees are well supported by the Company Secretary and meetings are effectively run. Clare Chalmers has reviewed the disclosures relating to the review set out within the Annual Report and has agreed that they reflect accurately both the process followed and the findings. In accordance with the Code, the next externally facilitated Board performance review will be scheduled for 2027 and internal reviews will be conducted in 2025 and 2026. Actions identified from the 2024 review Key recommendations and actions for 2025 Strategy – continuing to receive regular updates at Board meetings on strategy and the key strategic priorities, ensuring sufficient time for debate, including updates on the longer-term trends that could impact the key structural drivers of the business; Stakeholder engagement – continuing the cadence of breakfasts and dinners with external speakers, including customers and suppliers, and allocating time on Board agendas to discuss any outputs from these interactions; Succession planning and talent management – keeping succession planning under review throughout the year, ensuring sufficient time at Nomination Committee meetings to discuss and consider Board, executive and senior management succession planning, talent management and future capability requirements; and Board papers and agendas – continuing to improve discipline around succinct executive summaries in Board papers and presentations to allow sufficient time for discussion and questions from Board members. Progress against these actions will be considered by the Board during the course of 2025 and will be reported in next year’s Annual Report. Progress against actions identified in the 2023 internal review In June and December 2024, the Board also revisited the conclusions of the 2023 internal performance review to ensure that progress was being made on the key actions identified: What we said we would do: What we did: Further information: Evolve the Board agenda to include more structured and regular discussion throughout the year on the key strategic drivers of the business following the 2023 Strategy Event. There was allocated time on the Board agendas throughout the year for discussion on strategic topics and the Board received updates from the business on the key strategic priorities. Additionally, in December 2024, an interactive session was held, where individual Board members had the opportunity to discuss and ask questions directly to those responsible in the business for delivering each strategic priority.

The Committee comprises five of the Independent Non-Executive Directors and is chaired by myself as the Chair of the Board. In this Report we will demonstrate how the Committee has fulfilled its role of overseeing the composition of the Board and its Committees, and monitoring the balance of skills, experience, independence and knowledge as well as the diversity of its members in its broadest sense. Board changes Appointments Following the planned retirement of Martin Moore in December 2023, the Committee agreed to begin a search to replace the skills and experience which were lost with Martin’s retirement. After a robust search process, which is detailed further on page 97, the Committee recommended the appointment of Marcus Sperber. Marcus was appointed as an Independent Non-Executive Director on 1 May 2024 and will be subject to election by shareholders at the upcoming Annual General Meeting (AGM). He brings an extensive knowledge of the real estate and investment management industry, complementing the skillsets of our existing Board members and offering a fresh perspective to Board discussions. Since joining the Board, Marcus has participated in a comprehensive induction programme which you can read about on page 97. Retirements There were no retirements from the Board during the year. Committee membership The Committee considered the appointments of Independent Non-Executive Directors to each of the three Board Committees and concluded that they remain appropriate and effective although, as ever, this will be kept under review. Board succession planning Succession planning has long been a vital priority for the Committee and you can read more about our approach on page 94. We are mindful of the tenure of some of our Non-Executive Directors, namely Sue Clayton and Carol Fairweather, who are now each serving their final three-year term. We are also cognisant of the need to balance the regular refreshment of Board membership with the right combination of skills, experience, independence and diversity, and the balance of the Board as a whole. In the coming year the Committee will further consider the succession of these two roles. In addition to acting as an Independent Non-Executive Director, Carol also serves as the Chair of the Audit Committee and Senior Independent Director and so careful consideration will be given to the succession of these roles in particular to ensure a smooth transition of responsibilities. Re-appointment of Independent Non-Executive Directors Non-Executive Directors are appointed by the Board for three-year terms. At the conclusion of each term, the Committee undertakes a review of their performance and contribution before making any recommendation to the Board for their re-appointment. Nomination Committee Report Composition, succession and evaluation Throughout the year, the Committee has acted in accordance with its Terms of Reference, which were last updated in February 2024 and can be found at: www.SEGRO.com Andy Harrison Chair of the Nomination Committee Key responsibilities Composition of the Board and its Committees Appointment of new Directors Induction of new Directors and ongoing training for individual Directors and the Board as a whole Monitoring the effectiveness of the Board Diversity and Inclusion Policy Succession planning for the Board, the Group HR Director and the Company Secretary Oversight of the development pipeline for the Leadership team and talent development programme for the wider workforce See the attendance at scheduled Nomination Committee meetings on page 78 Committee membership Andy Harrison (Chair) Mary Barnard Sue Clayton Carol Fairweather Simon Fraser Linda Yueh Letter from the Chair of the Nomination Committee 91 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information In May 2024, Simon Fraser and Linda Yueh reached three years’ service on the Board and, in June 2024, Sue Clayton reached six years’ service. Following their confirmation that they each wished to continue serving as Independent Non-Executive Directors, and in Simon’s case the Chair of the Remuneration Committee, their re-elections were considered by the Committee. The Committee gave due regard to their individual performance and their contributions and ability to contribute to the long-term success of the Board. We concluded that Simon, Linda and Sue all continued to be valuable members of the Board and it was agreed that their terms each be extended for a further three years, subject to the annual re-election by shareholders at the 2025 AGM. Neither Simon, Linda nor Sue were present when their re-appointments were discussed. In the coming year, Mary Barnard will reach the end of her second three-year appointment in March 2025 and I will reach the end of my first three-year appointment in April 2025. The Committee considered our re-appointments at the December 2024 meeting where, after due consideration, it was agreed that each of our appointments be extended for a further term. Carol Fairweather, in her capacity as Senior Independent Director, led the discussion regarding my re-appointment and neither Mary nor I were present when our respective re-appointments were considered. Board diversity and inclusion The Board Diversity and Inclusion Policy, which was last updated in December 2023, was considered at the December 2024 meeting and the Committee determined that it remained appropriate, effective and in line with best practice. We further considered how the objectives set out in the Policy had been achieved during the year, as detailed on page 95. Committee effectiveness As part of the external Board performance review undertaken during the year, detailed on pages 89 and 90, the operation of each of the Board Committees was considered and it was concluded that they continue to operate effectively and were well led by their respective Chairs. An update on the activities of the Committee was provided to the Board at each subsequent Board meeting. Looking ahead In 2025, the Committee will continue to focus on succession planning, both generally and with regard to specific key roles, to ensure that we remain well positioned for the future. As detailed on page 90, we will allow more time on the agenda for wider discussions on talent management below Board level. Diversity and inclusion for the Board and senior management roles also remains a key item for discussion on the agenda and we will continue to monitor progress against achievements of the agreed senior management diversity targets.

During the year, the Committee reviewed the skills and experience of the Board members, as well as the size of the Board as a whole, and concluded that it was appropriate in size with the right balance of skills and experience to fulfil its duties. As ever, this will be kept under review. Skills and experience of Directors Induction On joining the Board new Directors participate in a comprehensive induction programme designed to familiarise them with the Company, its assets, policies and procedures, and to introduce them to employees and key advisers, in order to assist them in becoming effective in their role as quickly as possible. As part of the induction process, they are provided with information on the Group, its policies and its governance structure by the Company Secretary. They will also meet with the Executive Directors, the other members of the Executive Committee, the Heads of Functions covering various aspects of the business, and the Company’s external advisers which include the valuers, brokers, and internal and external auditors, during the course of Board activities. Training To ensure the Board continually updates and refreshes its skills and knowledge, ongoing training and development support is provided. The Directors are regularly briefed on: business- related matters; governance updates; investor expectations; and legal and regulatory changes which impact the Company. During the year, both the Audit and Remuneration Committees received updates or briefings on relevant accounting, remuneration and regulatory developments, evolving market trends and changing disclosure requirements from external advisers and internal management. As detailed on pages 98 and 99, members of the Audit Committee spent time familiarising themselves with the evolving requirements in relation to the emerging EU non-financial reporting requirements. Directors may also request training on specific issues with some attending external courses (often provided by our professional advisers). From time to time, meetings with specialists in the business are arranged for Directors who may wish to gain a deeper insight into a particular topic. The Directors may raise any training needs with the Chair which helps to ensure that the training programme meets the needs of the Board, individual Directors and the business. The Directors have access to the advice of the Company Secretary and independent professional advice is available at the Company’s expense, if necessary, in fulfilling their duties and responsibilities. During the year, all Board members received the annual refresher training on the UK Market Abuse Regulation from the Company Secretary and were reminded of their ongoing duties and responsibilities as Directors by our corporate lawyers, Slaughter and May. 1 SEGRO Park Carré des Aviateurs Le Blanc-Mesnil 2 SEGRO Park Croydon 1 2 Read about the tailored induction programme for Non-Executive Director Marcus Sperber, who joined the Board in 2024, on page 97 93 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Non-Executive Directors Tenure Executive Directors Composition, succession and evaluation continued Nomination Committee Report continued Succession planning The Committee is responsible for the effective and orderly succession planning of Directors, both Non-Executive and Executive, the Group HR Director and the Company Secretary. It monitors the tenure of Directors to ensure that it plans sufficiently in advance of retirements from the Board to ensure orderly succession of Non-Executive Directors. In accordance with the Code, all Directors stand for election or re-election at each AGM. Along with considering Board succession, the Committee oversees the development of a strong pipeline of diverse and talented individuals below Board level. It reviews regularly the quality of the Leadership team and senior managers as it recognises the importance of creating and developing a suitably talented, diverse pipeline ready to serve as the next generation of leaders. The Chief Executive, supported by the Group HR Director, presents to the Committee on Leadership team succession planning and the talent development programme for the wider workforce. For the Executive Committee and for roles in the Leadership team, plans are in place for both sudden, unforeseen absences, and for longer-term succession. These form the basis of development plans for our most talented people and will ensure that, looking forward, we have the right people to deliver our strategy.

SEGRO is a pan- European business committed to the creation of an inclusive culture, where each individual is given the opportunity to contribute and use their talents and abilities to their maximum potential. We believe a diverse Board, with a broad range of skills, backgrounds, knowledge and experience, is a key driver of an effective Board as it promotes constructive debate and effective decision making. The composition of the Board exceeds the criteria of both the FTSE Women Leaders Review on gender diversity and the Parker Review on ethnic diversity. As at 31 December 2024, 44 per cent of the Board were female, 22 per cent were from an ethnic minority background and one senior Board position was held by a female. The Board aspires to promote greater diversity across the business which forms an integral part of our Nurturing talent strategic pillar. During the year, the Group HR Director presented to the Board on the progress made against these objectives, which included progress against the gender and ethnicity diversity targets for senior leadership roles we disclosed last year. Board Diversity and Inclusion Policy The Committee is responsible for monitoring the effectiveness of the Board Diversity and Inclusion Policy (the Policy) which sets out the Company’s approach to diversity and inclusion in respect of the Board and its Committees, and considers how this contributes to SEGRO’s Group-wide diversity and inclusion ambitions. The Policy incorporates a broad range of diversity factors as set out in the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules, specifies diversity targets with which the Board aims to comply, and considers how the Policy is applied to the Audit, Nomination and Remuneration Committees as well as the Board as a whole. It was last updated during 2023. During 2024, the Committee considered that the Board and its Committees were in compliance with the Policy, which remained appropriate and aligned with best practice, and will keep both the Policy itself and compliance with it under periodic review. Diversity and inclusion in Directors’ recruitment When searching for an additional Director, the Committee is mindful of the advantages a diverse Board brings, and ensures that in selecting and briefing executive search firms, the importance of diversity and inclusion are highlighted at the outset. The Committee particularly considers how it describes the skills and experience needed for the roles as this helps attract as wide a pool of candidates as possible. Only executive search firms who have signed up to the Voluntary Code of Conduct for Executive Search Firms will be used in the recruitment of Directors. In the final selection decision, all Board appointments are made on merit and relevant experience, against the criteria identified by the Committee with regard to the benefits of diversity in the widest sense.

On appointment, the Chair and Non-Executive Directors receive a formal letter of appointment clearly setting out their expected time commitment to the Company and any additional future commitments should not be undertaken without prior notification to the Board. Executive Directors are permitted to hold one external directorship as approved by the Board. David Sleath and Soumen Das each hold one external directorship, at RS Group plc and NEXT plc respectively. The Committee has considered the additional commitments of all Directors and has concluded that each of them has sufficient time to commit to the Company and are not overboarded. Their individual contributions are, and continue to be, important to the Company’s long-term sustainable success. For transparency, we disclose all significant external appointments held by our Directors in their biographies on pages 76 to 78; however it is recognised that many of these appointments do not require the same time commitment as appointments to publicly listed companies. Directors’ independence The Board is made up of a majority of Independent Non-Executive Directors, which promotes the good governance of the Company by ensuring that the Executives are held to account and are not able to dominate Board decision making. The Committee considers each of the Non- Executive Directors to be independent in character and judgement in accordance with the criteria set out in the Code. The Chair was considered independent on appointment and the Committee still considers him to be so. Prior to their appointment, the Directors must disclose any actual or potential conflicts of interests and any future business interests that could result in a conflict must not be undertaken without the prior notification to, and authorisation of, the Board. The Board considers and approves the conflicts of interest as declared by any Director at each Board meeting. Directors’ effectiveness The performance and individual contribution of each of the Directors is reviewed annually as part of the Board performance review process, which this year was an externally-facilitated review led by external consultant Clare Chalmers. Further details can be found on pages 89 and 90. The review concluded that the Chair demonstrated strong leadership, was supportive in facilitating an environment where all Directors can speak openly, and remained effective in his role. The Non-Executive Directors also agreed that the Chief Executive continued to perform his role with energy and commitment and leads an effective Executive team. The performance of the other Non-Executive Directors is appraised by the Chair and Senior Independent Director, whilst the Chief Executive provides feedback on the Chief Financial Officer. Director election/re-election at the AGM Having considered the skills and performance of each Director, and whether they continue to be effective and demonstrate commitment to their roles, the Committee makes a formal recommendation to the Board that they be elected/re-elected as appropriate. The Committee has concluded that all Directors continue to be effective in their roles and accordingly will submit themselves for election/ re-election as appropriate by shareholders at the 2025 AGM. For information on how each of the Directors contribute to the long-term success of the Company, see their biographies on pages 76 to 78.

The programme is tailored to the areas of focus and interest for the particular Director, and some meetings take place within the regular programme of Board meetings and site visits. Marcus’ induction included meeting with the following people in order to familiarise himself with the Company and gain the necessary background to effectively take on his role and discharge his responsibilities as an Independent Non-Executive Director: – Chair Andy Harrison provided an introduction to the Board, its culture, and key areas of focus for the coming year, as well as the responsibilities and current focal points of the Nomination Committee. – Chief Executive David Sleath shared his views on the business, the strategy and ongoing transactions. He also provided an overview of the Company’s strategic priorities and Responsible SEGRO. – Chief Financial Officer Soumen Das gave an overview of the structure and work of the Finance function and the Company’s latest financial performance, investor and analyst feedback, Transformation and Technology function and risk management processes. – Non-Executive Directors Each of the Non-Executive Directors met with Marcus to share their views on the Company. Committee Chairs, Carol Fairweather and Simon Fraser, brought him up to speed on the activities of the Audit and Remuneration Committees respectively, and Carol also noted her role as Senior Independent Director. – Head of Legal and Company Secretary Stephanie Murton outlined the Company’s corporate governance framework, the annual agenda for the Board and its Committees, shared insights from last year’s internal Board evaluation and discussed the Board’s programme for stakeholder engagement. She also provided an overview of our legal structure, Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and whistleblowing policies, training on our UK Market Abuse Regulation policies and detailed how we manage conflicts of interest. – Executive Committee and senior management Each of the Executive Committee members detailed their individual areas of responsibility, including the UK and Continental European business and operations, the HR function, workforce engagement programme and Nurturing talent programme, Group Operations including health and safety, our Responsible SEGRO strategy, Data Centre and Energy strategy and the SELP joint venture. Marcus also met with other senior managers around the business to further discuss topics of interest. – Committee meetings Since joining the Board, Marcus has attended a number of the Audit, Nomination and Remuneration Committees as a guest in order to gain a comprehensive view of their activities. – External advisers Marcus has attended Board and Committee meetings at which some of our key advisers were present, all of whom are available for additional private meetings should the need arise. – Site visits To date, Marcus has visited a number of assets in Milan, Coventry, Northampton and Slough and further visits are planned for 2025. 1. Background 3. Search 5. Selection 7. Induction 2. Role profile 4. Interview 6. Appointment Further to the planned retirement of two Directors in 2023, the Committee had agreed to keep the size and composition of the Board under review, including whether and how to replace the skills and experience of former Non-Executive Director, Martin Moore. These considerations included the appropriate size of the Board, the loss of Martin’s particular skill, all in the context of the Board’s desired skills matrix and governance policies, with a view to future proof the Board ahead of the next rotation of retirements in 2027. It was concluded that we should commence a search for a Non-Executive Director with a broad experience of European real estate. Andy Harrison, as Chair of the Committee, led the search process with support from the Senior Independent Director, Carol Fairweather, and feedback from the Chief Executive, David Sleath. Having considered a number of search firms, Egon Zehnder were engaged to undertake a European wide search. They are a signatory to the Voluntary Code of Conduct for Executive Search Firms, as required by the Board Diversity and Inclusion Policy and the Committee felt as though they had a good understanding of the business and its culture. They have no other connection with the Company or any of its Directors. Egon Zehnder commenced the search for a diverse selection of candidates and the initial long list was reviewed by the Committee. The Committee identified the desirable skills, experience and qualities and a role profile was agreed. As well as prior experience of the UK and Continental European markets and property investment, the Committee stressed the importance of a good cultural fit within both the Board and the Company. Initial interviews with a shortlist of candidates were held with the Chair, Chief Executive, Senior Independent Director and Chair of the Remuneration Committee. Following feedback discussions, further interviews took place with the rest of the Board and references were obtained. Marcus Sperber was identified as the preferred candidate. The Committee considered him to be a high calibre candidate with the relevant experience to add insight to discussions and a valuable addition to the Board. His other commitments were noted, and the Committee concluded that he was not overboarded and would have sufficient time to dedicate to the role. The Committee made a formal recommendation to the Board, following which Marcus was appointed as an Independent Non-Executive Director with effect from 1 May 2024. He will be subject to election by shareholders at the upcoming AGM in April 2025. A full biography for Marcus can be found on page 78. 97 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Audit Committee Report Audit, risk and internal control Dear shareholder, As Chair of the Audit Committee (the Committee), I am pleased to present the Committee’s report for 2024. Over the following pages you will see how the Committee has discharged its responsibilities, as well as other areas which it has focused on. Composition The Committee is made up entirely of Independent Non-Executive Directors and each member has considerable commercial knowledge and broad industry expertise. I satisfy the requirement of the UK Corporate Governance Code 2018 (the Code) to bring recent and relevant financial experience to the Committee, and the Committee also benefits from the additional financial expertise and experience provided by both Simon Fraser and Linda Yueh as well as the wealth of property experience brought by Sue Clayton. There were no changes to the Committee during the year, and the Board remains satisfied that the Committee as a whole has the relevant competence and appropriate balance of skills and experience to properly discharge its duties. Meetings The Committee met formally three times during the year and provided updates to the Board on its activities at each subsequent meeting. We believe this is the appropriate amount of scheduled meetings, however if the need arises, additional formal meetings are convened. As usual, our external and internal auditors joined the meetings throughout the year, together with a number of employees from across the business. We continue to find this incredibly valuable as it allows us to see the pool of talent within the Company and facilitates a greater depth of discussion and debate on some specialist topics. In 2024, we were joined by: – the Head of Finance for the Group and Group Financial Controller to consider the accounting judgements and treatments that have been adopted for particular transactions; – the Head of Legal and Company Secretary, who provided updates on relevant legal and regulatory matters as well as the work of the Group Legal function; – the Head of Tax, who provided an update on developments in the current tax landscape, the Group’s tax strategy and an overview of significant tax issues or changes that could potentially impact the Group’s tax charge; – the Head of Technology, who delivered his annual update on developments in cyber security threats, the continued investments by the Company in response, and the current status of cyber security defences; and – the Commercial Finance Director and Head of Sustainable Finance, who shared an update on sustainability matters including the status of preparation for reporting under the emerging EU non-financial reporting requirements. During the year, the Committee has acted in accordance with its Terms of Reference, which were last updated in June 2022 and can be found at: www.SEGRO.com See the attendance at scheduled Audit Committee meetings on page 78 Key responsibilities Advising the Board on the statements made in the Annual Report and Half-Year Report on viability, going concern, risk and controls and whether the Annual Report and Accounts are, when taken as a whole, fair, balanced and understandable Monitoring the integrity of the Financial Statements of the Group including reviewing significant judgements Reviewing internal controls and risk management systems Overseeing internal and external audit processes and the independence of the external auditor Committee membership Carol Fairweather (Chair) Sue Clayton Simon Fraser Linda Yueh Quick links Financial reporting process 100 Viability statement and going concern 100 Fair, balanced and understandable 100 Significant judgements made in 2024 101 External audit 102 Internal audit 103 Valuers 103 Internal controls and risk management 104 Carol Fairweather Chair of the Audit Committee Letter from the Chair of the Audit Committee 98 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Regular updates were also provided to the Committee on the risk management process, internal controls and anti-bribery and corruption matters. In addition to scheduled meetings, I speak regularly with the Chief Financial Officer, Head of Finance for the Group, Group Financial Controller and Head of Legal and Company Secretary to discuss any topical issues that should be brought to the attention of the Committee. Areas of focus in 2024 A comprehensive list of the Committee’s activities in 2024 can be found on the right. Some specific highlights this year included: – agreeing the approach to the external auditor tender in 2025; – considering the RICS mandatory requirement for the periodic rotation of UK valuers, which will come into force in May 2026 which was also considered by the Board as a whole in December 2024; and – keeping under review the evolving requirements for the Group in relation to the emerging EU non-financial reporting requirements. Committee effectiveness As part of the external Board performance review, the operation of the Committee was considered (see pages 89 and 90) and was deemed to be operating effectively. FRC Letter During the year, the Company received a letter from the Financial Reporting Council (FRC) following a routine review of the 2023 Annual Report and Accounts. Please see page 100 for further information. Discharge of responsibilities The quality of debate and challenge amongst the Committee, management and the internal and external audit teams, together with the comprehensive information provided to the Committee, has assisted us in appropriately discharging our responsibility. I would like to thank all those who have contributed to the Committee this year for their efforts. Looking ahead In 2025, the Committee will: – undertake a competitive tender of the external auditor in line with the recommendations of the FRC’s Audit Committees and the External Audit: Minimum Standard; – review our risk management and internal controls frameworks in preparation for the introduction of the new Provision 29 of the updated UK Corporate Governance Code 2024, which comes into effect for the 2026 financial year; and – continue to monitor progress of preparation for reporting under the emerging EU non-financial reporting requirements. If you have any questions on the Audit Committee or the contents of this Report, do contact me on companysecretariat.mailbox@SEGRO.com. Carol Fairweather Chair of the Audit Committee Audit, risk and internal control continued Audit Committee Report continued Throughout the year, the Committee has: – reviewed and monitored the integrity of the Financial Statements including reviewing significant financial reporting judgements and estimates made by management, to ensure that the quality of the Company’s financial reporting is maintained, in the Company’s Half- and Full-Year Financial Statements; – assessed the objectivity, independence and competence of the external valuer of the Group’s property portfolio and gained assurance around the valuation process; – ensured compliance with applicable accounting standards, monitoring developments in accounting regulations as they affect the Group and reviewing the appropriateness of accounting policies and practices in place; – received training on the Committee’s responsibilities under the emerging EU non-financial reporting requirements; – monitored progress on the preparation of the Group to report under the emerging EU non-financial reporting requirements; – monitored matters relating to tax, including REIT status and other significant open matters; – monitored the effectiveness of the Group’s risk management systems and considered the adequacy of the process being undertaken to identify risks and mitigate the exposure of the Group to them; – reviewed cyber security processes and the continued investment in this area to respond to increasing trends in cyber threats; – ensured the processes followed to support the making of the going concern and viability statements remained robust and were correctly followed; – ensured appropriate safeguards were in place for the detection of fraud and prevention of bribery. This extends to responsibility for overseeing and monitoring the Group’s Anti-Bribery and Corruption policies and procedures contained in the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics; – reviewed the adequacy of internal financial controls and broader internal control systems; – examined the performance of the external and internal auditors, their objectivity, effectiveness and independence, as well as the terms of their engagement and scope of the external and internal audit plans; – reviewed and re-approved the Policy for Approval of Non-Audit fees; – monitored the ratio and level of audit to non-audit fees paid to the external auditor and agreed their remuneration for the year; – agreed the approach to the external audit tender in 2025; – analysed and challenged the results of internal audit reviews and management’s plans to resolve any actions arising from them; and – advised the Board on whether the process supporting the preparation of the Annual Report taken as a whole, is appropriate to allow the Board to conclude that the Annual Report is fair, balanced and understandable and provides the information necessary to shareholders to assess the Group’s position, performance, business model and strategy. What the Committee did in 2024 99 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Audit, risk and internal control continued Audit Committee Report continued A key area of responsibility for the Committee is the monitoring of the integrity of the Company’s Financial Statements and any formal announcements relating to the Company’s financial performance, as well as reviewing any significant financial reporting issues and judgements contained therein. The Group has long-established internal controls and risk management systems in relation to the process for preparing the Financial Statements. Various checks on internal financial controls take place throughout the year, including internal audits which are detailed further on page 103. Developments in accounting regulations and best practice in financial reporting are monitored by the Company and, where appropriate, reflected in the Financial Statements. Training is also provided to the finance teams and the Committee is kept appropriately informed. The financial reporting from each business (UK and Continental Europe) is reviewed by the Head of Finance for the business, following submission by the regional finance teams. The results of each business are subject to further review by the Group Finance function, including senior members of the Group Finance team, before being consolidated. The draft consolidated statements are reviewed by various individuals including those independent of the preparer. The review includes checking consistency internally, with other statements and with internal accounting records. The Committee receives reports from management and the external auditor on significant judgements, changes in accounting policies, and other relevant matters relating to the consolidated Financial Statements. The Committee and the Board review the draft consolidated Financial Statements. FRC Letter As part of its standard review in respect of public and large private companies’ accounts and reports, the FRC wrote to the Company and provided a number of minor suggestions that have been addressed where relevant and appropriate in the 2024 Annual Report and Accounts. The FRC clarified that this did not amount to substantive correspondence and no formal response was required from the Company. The FRC noted that their review was limited to the published 2023 Annual Report; it did not benefit from a detailed understanding of underlying transactions and provides no assurance that the 2023 Annual Report is correct in all material aspects. The Code requires the Board to confirm that they consider that the Annual Report, taken as a whole, is fair, balanced and understandable and provides the information necessary for shareholders to assess the Company’s position, performance, business model and strategy. In order to enable the Board to make this confirmation, the Audit Committee has oversight of the process which has been followed, whereby the section owners and an independent reviewer confirm that in their opinion and against an agreed list of criteria the Annual Report is fair, balanced and understandable. These criteria include: – is the whole story presented, with key messages appropriately reflected?; – does the Report properly provide the necessary information, with a good level of consistency, for stakeholders to assess SEGRO as a business?; and – is the Report presented in straightforward language, easy to understand and within a clear framework? The Committee reviewed the process that management had undertaken to make the statement, which included regular meetings of the Annual Report and Accounts Working Group during the drafting process to ensure a consistent approach, and confirmed to the Board that the processes and controls around the preparation of the Annual Report are appropriate, robust and consistent. The fair, balanced and understandable statement is made on page 134. Financial reporting process Fair, balanced and understandable Viability statement and going concern The Committee is responsible for ensuring that the process put in place to allow the Board to make the viability statement on page 61 remains robust, in line with market practice and is correctly and properly followed. The Committee reviewed the process which included extended scenario analysis and is comfortable with the process followed to make the viability statement and has confirmed this to the Board. The Committee reviewed the recommendation setting out the support for adopting the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. The Committee confirmed to the Board that the recommendation was appropriate. The Board’s statement is set out on page 46. 100 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Audit, risk and internal control continued Audit Committee Report continued Significant matter The action taken Valuation of the property portfolio Valuation is central to the business’ performance and is a significant estimate for the Committee as it is inherently subjective, because the valuer must make assumptions and judgements in reaching its conclusions. This is a recurring risk for the Group as it is key to its IFRS profitability, balance sheet portfolio value, net asset value, total property return, and employee incentives. It also affects investment decisions and the implementation of the Company’s Disciplined Capital Allocation policy. It is included on the Risk Register and the process risk map as a potential key business risk. The Committee ensured that there was a robust process in place to satisfy itself that the valuation of the property portfolio by CBRE, a leading firm in the UK and Continental European property markets, was carried out appropriately and independently. The Chair of the Audit Committee met separately with CBRE in advance of the Committee meetings to review the valuation process in detail and ensure the valuer remained independent, objective and effective. Given the significance of this judgement, as in previous years, the full Board also met twice with CBRE to review, challenge, debate and consider the valuation process; understand any particular issues encountered in the valuation; understand the impact of climate change and sustainability requirements on valuations; and discuss the processes and methodologies used. The auditors also meet with the valuers, and they use the services of their own in-house property valuation expert to test the assumptions made by CBRE. They report to the Audit Committee on their findings. The Committee confirmed that it was satisfied that the valuation was not subject to undue influence and had been carried out fairly and appropriately, and in accordance with the industry valuation standards, and therefore suitable for inclusion in the Financial Statements. For details of the Group’s properties and related accounting policies see Note 13 and Note 1 of the Financial Statements. For details of the results of the valuation see Note 13 of the Financial Statements. For further information see page 137 Significant judgements made by the Committee in 2024 101 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information External auditor Audit, risk and internal control continued Audit Committee Report continued Following a tender in 2015, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC) were appointed as the Company’s external auditor for the 2016 audit, and the Committee continues to enjoy a constructive working relationship with them. Richard Porter has been the external audit partner since 2023. The Committee Chair has had regular discussions with Richard and his PwC colleagues to consider matters as they arise throughout the year and the Committee regularly meets privately with Richard to discuss PwC’s work and observations on the Company. No areas of concern were raised during the year. Oversight PwC presented their audit plan for the year which the Committee considered and approved. The key areas of risk, which were primarily identified as areas of judgement and complexity, were highlighted by PwC and were consistent with those areas identified by the Committee. The level of audit materiality was also discussed and agreed. PwC presented a detailed report of their audit findings at the year end, which were reviewed and discussed. A review of the external auditor’s report was also undertaken by the Committee at the half year. As part of the reviews the Committee probed and challenged the work undertaken and the findings and the key assumptions made, with particular attention to the areas of audit risk identified. Independence The Company complies with the Competition and Markets Authority Order 2014 relating to audit tendering and the provision of non-audit services. There are no contractual obligations which restrict the Committee’s choice of external auditor or which put in place a minimum period for their tenure. The external audit was last tendered in 2015 following which the auditor changed in 2016 from Deloitte LLP to PwC. In the coming year, the Committee will lead the tender of the external auditor as stipulated by current regulation that requires a tender every 10 years, as detailed on page 103. Remuneration The Committee considers the remuneration of the external auditor at least on a semi-annual basis and approves its remuneration. It also keeps under close review the ratio of audit to non-audit fees to ensure that the independence and objectivity of the external auditor are safeguarded. In 2024, fees for audit services amounted to £1.58 million and the non-audit fees amounted to £0.31 million, of which £0.20 million was subject to the non-audit fee cap which is broadly in line with the previous year. The balance is related to work in respect of the forthcoming Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive. The non-audit fee for 2024 equates to 14 per cent of the average audit fees of the last three years. The chart below sets out the ratio of audit to non-audit fees for each of the past three years: 2024 2023 2022 Audit fees (£m) 1.58 1.39 1.31 Non-audit fees (£m) 0.20 0.19 0.32 Ratio of non-audit fees to audit fees (%) 13 14 24 The Committee has concluded that PwC remains independent and objective, and that the level of non-audit to audit fees is acceptable for 2024. PwC has provided written confirmation of its independence to the Committee. We have voluntarily provided details on the fees relating to the audit of the Group’s SELP joint venture with PSP Investments, for which PwC is the auditor, in Note 6(ii) to the Financial Statements. The Committee has no oversight or control over these fees as the SELP joint venture operates totally independently and is not controlled by the SEGRO Group or the Committee. The fees are provided solely for information purposes and do not form part of the audit fees nor are they included in the calculation to determine the ratio of audit to non-audit fees on an annual or three-year basis for the SEGRO Group. Policy for approval of non-audit fees The Committee considers the Policy for Approval of Non-Audit Fees on an annual basis to ensure that it remains fit for purpose. The Policy, which is available on our website at www.SEGRO.com, was updated in February 2025. The Committee is satisfied that the Policy is appropriate and in line with industry best practice. The Policy sets out the very limited circumstances where PwC may be appointed to carry out non-audit services but only with the prior consent of the Committee or the Committee Chair, through delegation of authority from the Committee. There must be an obvious and compelling reason why PwC should be appointed and there should be no threat to the independence of PwC. The impact on non-audit to audit fees must also be considered, and fees incurred for non-audit work must not exceed 70 per cent of the average of the audit fees paid for the last three consecutive years. All non-audit fees are reported to the Committee. Effectiveness The Committee assesses the effectiveness of the external audit process on an annual basis, by taking account the views of management involved in the audit and by reviewing a number of factors including: – performance in discharging the audit and half-year review; – independence and objectivity; – robustness of the audit process, including how the auditor demonstrated professional scepticism and challenged management’s assumptions particularly in relation to the valuation of the Group’s portfolio; – the quality of service and delivery, including appropriate resources and skills for the complexity of SEGRO’s audit; and – remuneration. The Committee also noted the results of the PwC Audit Quality Review inspection results 2023/24. Having considered the above, the Committee believes the audit to be effective with an appropriate level of challenge. 102 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information External auditor continued Valuers Internal auditor Audit, risk and internal control continued Audit Committee Report continued Re-appointment On the basis of the above, the Committee recommended to the Board that it propose to shareholders at the 2025 Annual General Meeting that PwC should be reappointed for the 2025 financial year. External auditor tender Ultimate responsibility for the external auditor tender process sits with the Committee. As such, at the December 2024 meeting, the Committee considered and approved the proposed approach, criteria and timeline for the tender which will take place during 2025. The tender will comply with all aspects of the FRC’s Audit Committees and the External Audit: Minimum Standard. Following completion of the tender, the Committee will make an appropriate recommendation through the Board to be considered by shareholders at the 2026 AGM. A summary of the external auditor tender process and the outcome will be reported in next year’s Audit Committee Report. The Committee believes that given the Company’s size and structure using a third party to perform the internal audit function continues to be the most appropriate model. This provides independent challenge of management and gives access to a wide range of expertise. KPMG has performed the role since its appointment in 2007 and re-appointments in 2014 and 2022 following a tender. During their tenure, there have been a number of rotations of lead partners and audit managers to ensure that a fresh perspective is given, and their independence and scrutiny are maintained. Topics included in the internal audit plan for 2024 were selected based on a review of the Group’s principal risks, the timing of the previous audit and advice on market insights from KPMG. Significant areas of risk are subject to internal audit on a cyclical basis. The proposed internal audit plan for 2024 was considered and approved by the Committee in December 2023, and was kept under review during the course of the year. Internal audits during 2024 included: – leasing; – health and safety; – data management and governance; – insurance; and – sales, invoicing and credit control. Each internal audit during 2024 confirmed that no significant control issues were identified. However, a number of process and minor control improvement points were identified with follow up actions and timelines which were regularly monitored by management and the Committee. Feedback on the performance of KPMG for each internal audit is given by the Company and was largely positive and no areas of particular concern have been brought to the Committee’s attention. The lead KPMG partner attends Committee meetings to present KPMG’s report and the Committee also meets privately with him during the year. No matters of concern were raised in the private meetings. Effectiveness The Committee believes that both the process for determining the internal audit programme, and the programme itself, are appropriate and effective, and as in previous years the programme will be amended during the year if required to react to any new events or information. The Committee is satisfied that the internal audit function continues to perform effectively. The single most important judgement that the Committee and the Board has to make is the value of the Group’s portfolio. The Committee is assisted in reaching this judgement by its external valuer, CBRE, who have held this position since 2012. CBRE was reappointed in 2021 for a further four-year term, and the Committee believes that it continues to be effective in its role. The effectiveness of the Group’s valuers is assessed through regular meetings during the year with the Chair of the Audit Committee and supplemented by additional sessions with management, which focused on the following: – independence and objectivity; – experience and qualification of the valuation team; – consistency of approach across each of the countries in which the Group operates; and – quality of data and materials, including the two presentations to the Board. As a result, the Committee concluded that the external valuers performed to a high standard, were independent, and that the well-run process delivered a robust set of valuations. The Committee is mindful of the new RICS requirement for the mandatory periodic rotation of UK valuers, which will come into effect for the Group’s UK-based assets for the June 2026 valuation. At the December 2024 meeting, the Board considered and agreed the proposed approach and timeline for the tender process. 103 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Risk The Board recognises that effective risk management is key to the long-term sustainable success and future growth of the business and the achievement of the Group’s strategic objectives (see pages 50 to 53). It is ever aware of the need to ensure that new and emerging risks, as well as the more established principal risks, are adequately managed and mitigated. Risk management is therefore embedded in the Company’s decision making and culture, and robust systems have been put in place to ensure this remains the case. There is an ongoing process for identifying, evaluating and managing the principal risks faced by the Group, which has been in place during the year, together with the means for identifying those emerging risks which may impact the Group in the future. These emerging risks are discussed throughout the business by the appropriate working groups, conducting both horizon scanning and discussions at a more granular level. The Group Risk Committee monitors and reports on the Company’s approach to risk management as detailed further on page 50. The Board assumes responsibility for the effective management of risk across the Group, determined by its risk appetite, as well as ensuring that each business area implements appropriate internal controls. The Committee reviews regularly the effectiveness of the risk management process on behalf of the Board and is satisfied that it remains robust for the financial year in question and up to the date of this Annual Report. Internal controls The Committee is responsible for reviewing the adequacy and effectiveness of internal control systems (covering all material controls including financial, operational and compliance controls and risk management systems) on behalf of the Board. At each meeting, the Committee receives an update on internal controls and regularly reviews the adequacy and effectiveness of the Group’s internal control systems through various activities including: – reviewing the effectiveness of the risk management process; – reviewing and challenging management’s self-assessment of the internal controls framework; and – reviewing the work undertaken by the internal and external auditor, in relation to internal controls. The Committee also receives at each meeting an anti-bribery and corruption report to enable it to satisfy its responsibility for ensuring that adequate safeguards for the prevention of bribery and corruption and detection of fraud are in place. Details of how matters of concern can be reported and will be investigated are on page 82. During the year, the Committee received a report of one whistleblowing allegation through its independent telephone line which, following a thorough investigation, was found to be unsubstantiated and closed. The Group’s internal auditor, KPMG, also facilitated a Fraud Vulnerability workshop with a number of stakeholders from across the business, to discuss the key fraud risks that could potentially impact SEGRO and the mitigating controls in place. An update was provided to the Committee at the December 2024 meeting. Outcome The framework for monitoring and maintaining internal controls is considered appropriate for a Group of SEGRO’s size and complexity and is designed to provide reasonable assurance against material misstatement or loss. On the basis of the Committee’s work, it confirms that it has not been advised of, or identified, any failings or weaknesses which it regards to be significant in relation to the Group’s internal control systems during the year. It also confirms that the Group’s internal control systems have been in place for the year under review and up to the date of approval of this Annual Report and are in accordance with the Guidance on Risk Management, Internal Control and Related Financial and Business Reporting issued by the Financial Reporting Council.

The role of the Committee is to determine the remuneration policies and practices which promote the long-term sustainable success of the Company, which are aligned with the Company’s Purpose and Values and its strategy. In the following pages you will see how the Committee has discharged its responsibilities as well as other key areas of focus in 2024. Composition and Committee meetings The Committee continues to be comprised entirely of Independent Non-Executive Directors. The Committee had three scheduled meetings during the year and Committee member attendance can be found on page 78. The Chief Executive, Group HR Director and external remuneration adviser attend Committee meetings by invitation as required. Following each Committee meeting, I provide an update to the Board on the Committee’s activities. Key areas of focus in 2024 A major area of focus for the Committee was the development of the new Remuneration Policy (the 2025 Policy), which we are recommending to shareholders for approval at the 2025 AGM. The 2025 Policy was developed internally with support from our remuneration advisers and was further refined following a consultation process with approximately 60 per cent of the Company’s shareholder base and key proxy advisory agencies. I discuss this further overleaf and the full 2025 Policy can be found on pages 123 to 131. During the year, the Committee approved the Executive Directors’ variable remuneration and annual salary increases, and assessed the variable targets prior to the 2021 LTIP vesting to ensure the outcomes represented a fair reflection of the business performance throughout the performance period. The Committee also approved the grant of awards under the Company’s all-employee schemes and reviewed the wider workforce remuneration framework to ensure this remained aligned with the structure of remuneration for the Executive Directors. Remuneration and alignment to Company performance As covered elsewhere within this Annual Report, SEGRO performed well during 2024, increasing the level of contracted rent and delivering strong operating metrics despite the macroeconomic environment and its impacts on wider business confidence. Long-term structural trends continued to support occupier demand for industrial space and supply remained in check. This, along with the expertise and strong customer relationships of the asset management teams helped SEGRO capture a significant amount of the embedded reversion within the portfolio while keeping customer retention rates high, both supporting strong like-for-like rental growth. Weaker business confidence resulted in lower levels of pre-let activity in our markets and a smaller development programme than in recent years, however development returns remain attractive and £37 million of completions during the year also contributed to income and earnings growth. Finally, with liquidity returning to investment markets the investment teams were able to make some profitable disposals, the proceeds of which were redeployed into growth opportunities.

Since the last Policy review, the Company has expanded the size of its property portfolio by 7 per cent in terms of space under management and increased its earnings per share by 19 per cent, while maintaining a strong balance sheet with a loan-to-value ratio of 28 per cent at 31 December 2024. Regarding the implementation of the 2025 Policy for the financial year ending 31 December 2025, the maximum bonus opportunity for the Chief Executive will be increased to 200 per cent of salary, subject to shareholder approval of the 2025 Policy. The maximum bonus opportunity for the Chief Financial Officer will remain at 150 per cent of salary. Annual bonus targets for the 2025 financial year have been set taking into consideration internal and external forecasts to ensure that targets are stretching and incentivising. Further details are set out on page 109. The increase in bonus opportunity for the Chief Executive reflects the increase in size of the business since the last Policy review. The Chief Executive’s target total remuneration will be approximately 18 per cent below the FTSE 100 median but above the lower quartile level following the change. Recognising shareholders’ desire to restrain salary increases, the Committee felt that an increase in bonus opportunity was the most appropriate way to reflect the growth in the business and not fall too far below mid-market levels. 2. Broadening Remuneration Committee discretion The 2022 Policy only permitted the Committee to scale back the formulaic outcome of the annual bonus and LTIP awards. Under the proposed 2025 Policy, the Committee has the ability to exercise both upward and downward discretion in respect of incentives in line with market practice. Where any upward discretion is exercised the Committee would, where appropriate, consult with investors and, in all circumstances, give a detailed explanation of the rationale in the following Annual Report. Exercise of discretion and judgement When approving the formulaic outcomes under the annual bonus and LTIP, the Committee considered whether or not they represented a fair reflection of the underlying performance of the business. The Committee was satisfied that the performance conditions were reflective of the business performance and that no overriding adjustment would have been appropriate. The Committee did not exercise discretion in relation to the operation of the Policy during the year. The Committee is comfortable that the actions taken on pay during the year across the Company were appropriate and balanced the interests of all stakeholders and that the Policy operated as intended. 2024 LTIP award The Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer received an LTIP award in March 2024 with three equally-weighted performance conditions in line with the Policy. Further details can be found on page 113. Directors’ Remuneration Policy During the course of this year the Committee conducted a review of the Policy, which is due to be renewed at our 2025 AGM. We consider our Policy to be working effectively and aligned with our strategy and, as a result, we are not proposing structural changes. The key changes to the Policy are set out below: 1. Increase in the maximum annual bonus opportunity The maximum annual bonus opportunity available under the proposed 2025 Policy for Executive Directors will increase from 150 per cent to 200 per cent of salary. This reflects the increase in the scale of the business, provides a more market competitive bonus opportunity and better alignment with the Company’s current strategy which is focused on both short-term performance and long-term value creation. SEGRO is the largest UK REIT, with a pan-European portfolio and operating platform across the UK, Variable remuneration Taking into account our operational results and our performance versus the financial and non-financial KPIs that were within management’s control during a year of continued macroeconomic and geopolitical challenge, the Committee has confirmed the following performance-related payments to the Executive Directors: 2024 annual bonus The annual bonus was subject to Adjusted PBT (37.5 per cent), rent roll growth (37.5 per cent) and ESG targets (25 per cent). Based on performance during the year, the 2024 annual bonus payment will be 56.6 per cent of maximum (see page 111 for more details). 2022 LTIP performance The LTIP structure is designed to ensure that senior management reward is well aligned with shareholder returns. Vesting is calculated by reference to three equally-weighted performance conditions. Based on actual TSR performance over the performance period, and on the TPR and TAR data currently available, it is expected that none of the 2022 LTIP will vest. Final vesting under the 2022 LTIP will be determined once the TPR and TAR information is available. Any difference in the vesting outcome will be disclosed in the 2025 Annual Report. Any shares that vest as a result of the 2022 LTIP awards are subject to a two-year post-vesting holding period. The performance period of January 2022 to December 2024 coincides with a period of macroeconomic volatility, with high inflation leading to high interest rates, and a resultant impact on investment and occupier markets. SEGRO, and the wider industrial and logistics property sector, saw a higher correction than other property sub-sectors, and hence underperformed their performance metrics which are measured versus other listed UK REITs. TPR has underperformed its benchmark mainly due to SEGRO’s weighting to prime assets, which have a lower income yield but which should offer the opportunity for better future returns. Adjusted profit before tax (Adjusted PBT) increased by 14.9 per cent to £470 million and adjusted earnings per share increased by 5.5 per cent to 34.5 pence. Adjusted NAV per share remained at 907 pence and the Company has maintained a strong balance sheet with a loan to value ratio of 28.0 per cent. The Board is recommending a final dividend of 20.2 pence per share, making the full-year dividend 29.3 pence per share, an increase of 5.4 per cent. Further information on the Company’s performance during the year can be found in the Chief Executive’s statement on pages 11 to 15 and the Strategic Report on pages 10 to 71. A summary of the Group’s key financial metrics relating to Executive remuneration in 2024 can be found on page 108 and information regarding the alignment of remuneration outcomes to our strategy and performance can be found on page 115. Remuneration in 2024 Directors’ remuneration in 2024 was paid in line with the Company’s existing Remuneration Policy (the Policy), which was approved by shareholders at the 2022 AGM. The remuneration framework for both our Executive Directors and the wider workforce is aligned with the strategic direction and performance of SEGRO as well as the interests of our stakeholders, and this is set out in the charts on pages 115 and 116. As indicated on page 116, the 2024 annual bonus for the wider workforce is aligned to Group-wide Adjusted PBT, rent roll growth (RRG), ESG measures, as well as the achievement of personal objectives. The weighting of the personal performance measure varies based on seniority and makes up a larger percentage of bonus measures for more junior employees, allowing for sufficient opportunity to recognise individual performance as well as Company financial and operational performance in the annual bonus structure. 106 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Remuneration continued Directors’ Remuneration Report continued Committee effectiveness As part of the external Board performance review, the operation of the Committee was considered and it was concluded that the Committee continues to operate effectively in accordance with its terms of reference, which are available to view at www.SEGRO.com. Looking ahead The key areas of focus for the Committee in 2025 will be: – the implementation of the 2025 Policy, subject to shareholder approval at the AGM; – ensuring that the vesting of long-term incentives in 2025 accurately reflects the performance of the Executive Directors and the experience of stakeholders; – reviewing progress against and continued appropriateness of the performance conditions and weightings of the annual bonus for Executive Directors; and – monitoring emerging trends in remuneration and corporate governance as a whole. Conclusion The Remuneration Report and the 2025 Policy will be submitted to shareholders at the 2025 AGM, as well as the amendment to the rules of the LTIP as outlined. We believe that these changes are in the best interests of the Company and we hope that we can count on shareholder support at the AGM. If you have any questions about remuneration generally, or the contents of this Report, do contact me at companysecretariat.mailbox@SEGRO.com. I will also be attending the 2025 AGM and will be pleased to answer any questions you may have about the work of the Committee. Simon Fraser Chair of the Remuneration Committee Committee concluded that no changes to the ESG measures were required and that ESG measures will continue to make up 25 per cent of the overall bonus for Executive Directors. 2025 LTIP awards The Committee intends to make awards at the normal policy levels, the Chief Executive will receive a maximum LTIP award of 300 per cent of salary and the Chief Financial Officer will receive a maximum LTIP award of 250 per cent of salary. The Committee will undertake a final review of the targets and quantum prior to grant. Awards will continue to be subject to three equally- weighted measures (relative TSR, TPR and TAR). Stakeholder engagement Ahead of the AGM, we have engaged with 20 of our largest investors (representing approximately 60 per cent of the register) as well as Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS), The Investment Association (IA) and Glass Lewis, to understand their views on our proposed 2025 Policy and proposed implementation in 2025. Based on the feedback received from our engagement, investors raised no immediate concerns on the changes proposed to the Policy and the proposed implementation of the new 2025 Policy in 2025. Workforce considerations and engagement As part of the Policy review conducted during the year, the Committee considered pay alignment across the business to ensure everyone is rewarded fairly and that workforce pay aligns with Executive remuneration. During the year, the Non-Executive Directors held a series of workforce engagement sessions with a cross-section of employees including one which covered the alignment of Executive remuneration with wider workforce pay. Further details on this engagement is set out on page 117. 3. Wider Policy changes Further changes to the Policy are minor and of a housekeeping nature. Further details are set out in the Policy section of this Report on page 123. LTIP rules Minor amendments have been made to the LTIP rules to ensure that they align with the 2025 Policy. The LTIP rules will be submitted to shareholders for approval at the 2025 AGM. Remuneration in 2025 The Committee has reviewed the Executive Directors’ variable remuneration and annual salary increases to apply in 2025 in line with the 2025 Policy. Salary reviews The Committee reviewed the salaries of Executive Directors taking into consideration the increases for all other employees as part of the process. Our salary budget is approximately 3 per cent higher for 2025 than 2024, excluding the impact of changes in employee numbers. Reflecting their performance and that of the business, we have approved salary increases of approximately 3 per cent for the Executive Directors to take effect from 1 April 2025 (see page 109). 2025 bonus measures As noted above, the Chief Executive will have a maximum annual bonus opportunity of 200 per cent of salary (pending shareholder approval of the 2025 Policy) and the Chief Financial Officer will have a maximum opportunity of 150 per cent of salary. Targets for the annual bonus are set by the Committee at the beginning of the year. The weighting of the annual bonus performance measures are made up of 75 per cent financial measures, comprising Adjusted PBT (37.5 per cent) and RRG (37.5 per cent, made up of 18.75 per cent standing (existing) stock and 18.75 per cent development), and 25 per cent non-financial measures linked to our Responsible SEGRO (ESG) ambitions. Following a review of the metrics used to calculate the bonus elements and their alignment to the Company’s strategy, the Throughout the year, the Committee has: – developed the 2025 Policy and consulted with stakeholders on the proposed changes; – approved the Executive Directors’ annual salary increases, the 2023 bonus payments and the outturn of the 2021 LTIP awards, along with the approval of the 2024 bonus and 2024 LTIP targets; – reviewed and refined the approach to the ESG measures for the 2024 annual bonus prior to approval in February 2024; – approved the 2024 SIP, GSIP and Sharesave awards; – reviewed the Chair’s fee; – reviewed workforce pay to ensure that it continues to be aligned with the structure of remuneration for the Executive Directors; – noted the Group-wide all-employee 2024 salary review and considered the salary increases, bonus and LTIP awards for the Leadership team; and – received remuneration market updates from Korn Ferry on emerging themes and best practice. In this section we have used colour coding to represent the different elements of Executive Director Remuneration, and for information relating to Non-Executive Director fees and workforce remuneration.

Any payments to be made under this bonus will be payable in 2026. 50 per cent of the 2025 bonus will be deferred into shares under the DSBP. The 2025 DSBP will vest in April 2029, on the third anniversary of the payment of the 2025 bonus. Pension Executive Directors will receive cash in lieu of pension to the value of 12 per cent of their base salaries, which is in line with the UK workforce. LTIP Award The 2025 LTIP award for Executive Directors will be subject to the following equally-weighted performance conditions: 2025 performance conditions Weighting Threshold (20% of maximum) Maximum (100% of maximum) Relative Total Shareholder Return vs FTSE 350 REIT index 33% Benchmark Benchmark + 6% p.a. Relative Total Property Return vs MSCI All Industrial Country 33% MSCI Benchmark Benchmark + 1.5% p.a. Relative Total Accounting Return vs FTSE 350 REITs 33% Benchmark Benchmark + 2.5% p.a. These awards will be calculated as a percentage of Executive Directors’ salaries as at 31 December 2024 and will be granted during 2025. In line with the Policy, the Chief Executive will receive a maximum LTIP award of 300 per cent of salary and the Chief Financial Officer will receive a maximum award of 250 per cent of salary. Dividends will accrue on the gross number of LTIP shares which are released. The Committee will decide whether this payment will be made in cash or shares. Fees Fees for the Chair and Non-Executive Directors are reviewed on an annual basis. The review of the fees paid to the Chair is within the remit of the Committee, whilst the review of Non-Executive Directors’ fees is a matter for the Board in the absence of the Non-Executive Directors. With effect from 1 January 2025, the Chair and Non-Executive Directors’ fees were increased by approximately 3 per cent and in line with the Executive Directors’ pay increment. The Chair received a base fee of £386,100 and the Non-Executive Directors received a base fee of £73,200. There were no increases to the additional fees payable for the roles of the Senior Independent Director or Chair of the Audit and Remuneration Committees, which remained aligned with benchmarking at £17,700 and £20,000 respectively.

The single figure table for the Non-Executive Directors can be found on page 121. In applying the Remuneration Policy in 2024, the Committee considered the following factors set out in Provision 40 of the UK Corporate Governance Code 2018 (the Code). – Clarity and simplicity: The Committee is of the opinion that the Policy and its implementation is transparent, simple and easy to understand. – Risk: The Company’s remuneration arrangements discourage both the Executive Directors and the wider workforce from excessive risk taking in the pursuit of achieving objectives. The bonus, DSBP and LTIP include malus and/or clawback provisions. Executive Directors are required to hold a percentage of their base salary in shares in the Company (as described further on page 118). Additionally, they are subject to post-cessation requirement to continue holdings shares in the event that they leave the Company. Part of their annual bonus is subject to deferral under the DSBP and a compulsory post-vesting holding period applies for LTIP shares. – Predictability: Potential values of rewards to the Executive Directors under the Policy are set out in the scenario charts on page 131. The Committee has the discretion to override formulaic outturns to ensure incentive payouts reflect underlying business performance, and is aligned to shareholder experience. – Proportionality: In order to ensure outcomes do not reward poor performance, a significant portion of our remuneration framework is performance based and requires challenging performance targets and metrics to be achieved. – Alignment to culture: There is strong linkage between the structure of the Company’s incentive schemes, its Purpose and Values, and strategy. The chart on page 115 illustrates how variable remuneration is aligned with KPIs that measure performance against the Company’s strategy. During the course of the year, the UK Corporate Governance Code was updated. The 2024 Code will largely apply to the Company from 1 January 2025. The Committee considered the 2024 Code when reviewing the 2025 Policy set out on pages 123 to 131. Salary From 1 April 2024, the Executive Directors received an increase in salary of approximately 2 per cent. Chart 2: Salary Base salary as at 1 April 2024 David Sleath £798,200 Soumen Das £593,500 Taxable benefits (Audited) Taxable benefits include private medical healthcare, plus a cash allowance in lieu of a company car. Executive Directors are also entitled to life assurance and for the 2024 financial year, the total annual lump sum premiums (including annual death in service premiums) were as follows: David Sleath – £7,500 Soumen Das – £6,200 These figures are not included in Chart 1 above. Pension benefits (Audited) Each of the Executive Directors received cash in lieu of pension as detailed in Chart 1. Throughout the year, each of the Executive Directors received a cash allowance of 12 per cent of base salary. 110 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Remuneration continued Directors’ Remuneration Report continued Single year variable – Bonus, including DSBP (Audited) 2024 Bonus (Audited) The 2024 bonus comprised three components: Adjusted Profit Before Tax (PBT) 37.5 per cent; Rent Roll Growth (RRG) 37.5 per cent, consisting of standing (existing) stock (18.75 per cent) and development (18.75 per cent); and ESG 25 per cent comprising four equally-weighted metrics. The performance period for Adjusted PBT, RRG and ESG starts from 1 January. The Adjusted PBT and RRG outturns were calculated using a constant exchange rate and also include adjustments for specific items (including acquisitions and disposals made during the year) in accordance with the bonus scheme rules as approved by the Committee. The ESG element comprises four equally-weighted Responsible SEGRO measures in accordance with the bonus scheme rules as approved by the Committee. Bonus payments are calculated as a percentage of Executive Directors’ salaries as at 31 December of the relevant year. As explained on page 106, the Committee assessed the underlying performance of the business and concluded that no discretion should be exercised in respect of the 2024 bonus. The 2024 bonus targets and performance against them are set out below. Based on performance over the period, the payout will be 56.6 per cent per cent of the maximum, which will be paid in April 2025. As result, David Sleath will receive a payout of approximately £0.68 million and Soumen Das will receive approximately £0.5 million. The bonus is paid 50 per cent in cash with the remainder awarded as shares under the DSBP. Shares will vest in three years subject to continued employment or good leaver status. The 2024 DSBP will be awarded in April 2025 and will vest on the third anniversary of the award date in April 2028. Details of the DSBP awards granted to Executive Directors are set out in Chart 13 on page 119.

As such, this differs from the Adjusted PBT of £470m shown in Note 2 of the Financial Statements. Similarly, RRG is calculated based on a budgeted constant exchange rate and differs from the total RRG shown on page 31 which reflects actual exchange rates for 2024. 111 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Remuneration continued Directors’ Remuneration Report continued Multiple year variable – LTIP (Audited) LTIP awards are subject to a three-year performance period and a compulsory two-year post-vesting holding period for Executive Directors. LTIP vesting in 2025 (Audited) The 2022 LTIP award will vest on 5 May 2025, subject to relative TSR, TPR and TAR over the three-year performance period to 31 December 2024. Based on actual TSR performance over the performance period and the TPR and TAR data currently available, it is anticipated that the 2022 LTIP award will not pay out. Chart 4: 2022 LTIP award Measure Weighting Threshold (20% of maximum) Stretch (100% of maximum) Outcome (% of maximum) TSR1 33.3% Benchmark Benchmark + 6% p.a. 0% TPR2 33.3% MSCI Benchmark MSCI Benchmark + 1.5% p.a. 0% TAR3 33.3% Benchmark Benchmark + 2.5% p.a. 0% Estimated vesting (% of award) 0% 1 The Company’s TSR over the performance period was -36.7 per cent and the benchmark TSR was -18.1 per cent. As SEGRO has not reached the threshold target, this element of the 2022 LTIP award will lapse. 2 The estimated TPR calculation is based on the Company’s actual annualised TPR between 2022 and 2024 of -0.9 per cent and an estimated MSCI benchmark over the same period of -0.6 per cent. On this basis, the Company’s three-year TPR to 31 December 2024 has underperformed the estimated MSCI benchmark by 0.3 per cent which would lead to 0 per cent of the TPR element vesting. The final benchmark will be available in quarter two of 2025 and based on the information available at the time of this Report, the Committee has estimated that 0 per cent of this element will vest. Any differences will be disclosed in next year’s Report. 3 100 per cent of the TAR element will vest if the benchmark is exceeded by 2.5 per cent per annum. The final benchmark will be available in quarter two of 2025. Based on the information available at the time of this Report, the Company is underperforming the benchmark by approximately 5.0 per cent and consequently the Committee has estimated that the threshold target will not be met and so it is anticipated that this element of the award will lapse. The Committee has the discretion to adjust awards at vesting if it is not satisfied that the outcome is a fair reflection of underlying performance, or in the event of excessive risk taking or misstatement. As explained on page 106, the Committee assessed the underlying performance of the business and concluded that no such discretion should be exercised in respect of the vesting of the 2022 LTIP. Subject to an LTIP award vesting, at the point of vesting, the underlying number of shares under the award are subject to a further two-year post-performance holding period. The Executive Directors will continue to hold their award over the shares, and will be entitled to the value of any dividend payments during the holding period; during this time they will not be able to sell or transfer the shares under award. The award after vesting is not subject to any further conditionality and the normal leaver provisions would not apply, meaning that if the individual resigned during the holding period they would retain their award and be entitled to receive the underlying shares at the end of the holding period. Only if the individual was summarily dismissed (for gross misconduct) would the award lapse on termination of employment during the holding period.

Additionally, in the event that the actual outturn is 0 per cent following the final TAR and TPR benchmark data, no shares will vest and no dividend equivalents will be paid. 112 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Remuneration continued Directors’ Remuneration Report continued Updated LTIP vesting in 2024 (estimated in 2023 Annual Report) (Audited) The estimated vesting for the 2021 LTIP award set out in the 2023 Directors’ Remuneration Report was 62.7 per cent, based on nil vesting under the TSR element, 100 per cent vesting under the TAR element and 88.2 per cent vesting under the TPR element. The final benchmarks for the TAR and TPR elements became available in quarter two of 2024 and a final assessment concluded that there was no change required to the estimate made in respect of the TAR element. The Company’s actual TPR over the performance period was 8.0 per cent and the MSCI benchmark was 6.6 per cent. As a result, the Company’s TPR outperformance of 1.3 per cent compared with the MSCI benchmark led to 89.9 per cent of the TPR element vesting. Overall, this resulted in a total payout of 63.3 per cent for the 2021 LTIP, a 0.6 per cent increase from the 62.7 per cent that was estimated. In the 2023 Annual Report the estimated vesting share price for the 2021 LTIP was 785.8 pence, and the figure in Chart 1 has been re-presented to reflect the actual vesting share price of 891.7 pence. 2024 LTIP award (Audited) The 2024 LTIP award was granted on 22 March 2024 and is subject to the following equally-weighted performance conditions: 2024 Metrics Weighting Threshold (20% of maximum) Maximum (100% of maximum) Relative Total Shareholder Return vs FTSE 350 REIT index 33% Benchmark Benchmark + 6% p.a.

Other – SIP (Audited) The ‘other’ figure in Chart 1 includes the SIP and Sharesave: Share Incentive Plan (SIP) During the year, SIP free share awards of £3,600 were made to eligible UK employees and Global Share Incentive Plan (GSIP) awards of £3,600 were made to eligible employees based outside of the UK. All eligible employees, including the Executive Directors, received an award 408 shares in respect of the 2024 SIP and GSIP, as set out in the table below: Name Number of shares granted Grant date Face value at grant (£)1 David Sleath 408 10 May 2024 3,599 Soumen Das 408 10 May 2024 3,599 1 The number of shares awarded was calculated using a share price of 882.1 pence, based on the five-day average share price prior to the date of award. Sharesave All eligible UK employees are invited to join the Sharesave annually and can save up to a maximum of £500 per month across all open schemes. At the end of the three-year savings period, they can purchase shares at the option price based on a 20 per cent discount to the share price at the time of grant. The Executive Directors did not join the 2024 Sharesave and so did not receive any grants under the scheme during the year. Both Executive Directors are participants in the 2023 Sharesave, where they are saving the maximum permitted amount. The value of the 20 per cent option discount for each Executive Directors’ savings in the year was £1,500.

CEO pay ratio The table below shows how CEO pay compares to employees at the lower, median and upper quartiles. The ratios have been calculated in accordance with Option A of the The Companies (Miscellaneous Reporting) Regulations 2018. We have again opted for Option A as the preferred method of calculation, as it is the most statistically accurate as recommended by the legislation.

The median CEO pay ratio has decreased when compared against last year (23:1). The main contributor is the decrease in variable remuneration outturns in 2024, which make up a larger proportion of the Chief Executive’s total remuneration package. Share-based payments were awarded in 2024 through the all-employee Share Incentive Plan with all participants, including the Chief Executive, in receipt of the same value awarded which helped to achieve further parity. Additionally, the salary increase received by the Chief Executive in April 2024 was approximately 2 per cent, which was below the average UK employee increase of 5 per cent in the same period. SEGRO’s median CEO pay ratio is 13:1 and the Remuneration Committee considers that the median CEO pay ratio is representative of the pay, reward and progression policies for our UK workforce.

This encourages employees to own shares in the Company, aligning their interests with our shareholders. – SIP/GSIP: all eligible employees can receive an award of up to £3,600 worth of SEGRO shares each year. These are held in Trust on their behalf for a minimum of three years, following which they can be released subject to continued employment. – Sharesave: all UK employees are invited to join Sharesave on an annual basis, where they can save up to £500 a month across all open schemes. After three years, they can use their savings to buy SEGRO shares at a 20 per cent discount to the share price when they started saving. 89% of SEGRO employees participated in one or more all-employee share scheme, as at 31 December 2024. £3,600 In May 2024, all eligible employees received £3,600 worth of SEGRO shares through the SIP or GSIP. 63% of UK employees participate in Sharesave, saving on average £365 each month. 6.8m As at 31 December 2024, there were 6.8 million SEGRO shares under award in employee share schemes, representing 0.5 per cent of our issued share capital. Workforce engagement on Executive Remuneration As detailed on page 88, during the year the Non-Executive Directors held a series of workforce engagement sessions with a cross-section of employees from across the business. In December 2024, Remuneration Committee Chair, Simon Fraser, and Non-Executive Director, Mary Barnard, held an in-person workforce engagement session which covered a variety of topics and also covered Executive Remuneration. Nine employees were selected from a cross-section of employment grades, functions and tenures to provide a variety of perspectives. Simon outlined the remit of the Committee including the upcoming Directors’ Remuneration Policy renewal, as well as the alignment of executive and workforce remuneration and this was considered fair amongst attendees. There followed a discussion of the Company’s bonus structure, including the Responsible SEGRO targets, which had been reduced from six to four for the performance year. There was good clarity from the employees attending the engagement session on the bonus structure for Executives compared to the different levels within the business and the attendees expressed that the transparency of progress and overall performance against the bonus targets was effective. There was also a discussion on the new approach to the assessment of the personal performance element of the annual bonus, which had been modified during the year from an assessment of ‘what’ contribution an individual has made to the business to include an additional assessment of ‘how’ an individual’s contribution during the year is aligned with the Company’s culture, values and behaviours. This was seen as a positive development, however attendees sought additional clarity on how they could achieve the higher ratings. The Directors felt that these sessions remained helpful in understanding employees’ views on a range of topics, including Executive Remuneration, and appreciated the insightful, open and honest feedback from the employee attendees. The employees also valued the opportunity to speak directly with the Non-Executive Directors to share their views. Feedback from the session was relayed to the Board and discussed at the December 2024 Board meeting and will inform plans on the evolution of the reward and bonus guidance documentation and a communication plan in 2025.

Non-Executive Directors are expected to reach a share ownership equivalent in value to 100 per cent of their annual fees, within three years from their date of appointment. Where a Non-Executive Director has met the 100 per cent of their annual fees guidance previously, they would be considered to have adhered to the guidelines and are not expected to adjust their holdings with subsequent share price movements.

The Committee is responsible for appointing its external advisers and in 2018, following a competitive tender process, Korn Ferry was appointed. During 2024, Korn Ferry provided advice on the operation and development of the 2025 Policy, Executive Directors’ remuneration, and market and best practice guidance, including the provisions of the Code. Its total fees for advice to the Committee in 2024 were £105,958 (2023: £61,563), calculated on a time-cost basis. The Committee determined that Korn Ferry provided objective and independent remuneration advice and does not have any connections with the Company or its Directors. Korn Ferry provides services to the Company’s HR function and the Committee is satisfied that this does not impair its independence. Korn Ferry is a signatory to the Code of Conduct for Remuneration Consultants in the UK. External appointments Executive Directors are permitted to hold one external directorship, approved by the Board. Fees payable may be retained. David Sleath is a Senior Independent Director of RS Group plc (previously Electrocomponents plc) and he received a fee of £82,601 for this role in 2024 (2023: £81,116). Soumen Das is a Non-Executive Director of Next plc and he received a fee of £76,195 for his role in 2024 (2023: £73,208). Payments for loss of office (Audited) There were no payments for loss of office to Directors during 2024. Payments to Former Directors (Audited) Andy Gulliford retired as Chief Operating Officer and Executive Director on 30 June 2023. Full details of his exit arrangements are disclosed in the 2023 Remuneration Report. Andy’s 2021 LTIP award vested on 29 March 2024 and in line with previously disclosed exit arrangements, his award was time pro-rated and subject to performance conditions. Based on performance over the period, 63.3 per cent of the award vested (further details are set out on page 113). As a result, 59,293 shares vested and were valued at £575,228 based on the share price on the date of vesting (891.7 pence) and including any accrued dividends. In accordance with the rules of the LTIP, he will be required to retain and will not be permitted to transfer or otherwise dispose of any shares that have vested under the LTIP for a period of two years after the vesting date of each LTIP award. Any dividend equivalents accrued in respect of LTIP awards will be pro-rated in line with the level of vesting of the relevant LTIP award and will be paid in cash at the end of the holding period. There were no other payments to former Directors during the year.

In addressing this responsibility, the Committee works with management and external advisers to develop proposals and recommendations. The Committee considers the source of information presented to it, takes care to understand the detail and ensures that independent judgment is exercised when making decisions. The Remuneration Committee works alongside other Board Committees as needed. The key aim of the Policy is to align the interests of Executive Directors with those of the shareholders by supporting the delivery of strategy. The structure of the remuneration framework is designed to reflect the strategic direction of the business and to align it with the Company’s Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). When setting the 2025 Policy, the Committee considered the Company’s strategic objectives over both the short and the long term, the external market and market best practice. In addition, the Committee also considered the alignment across the business as well as stakeholder views. A summary of the conditions for employees across the Group and how stakeholder views are taken into account in the 2025 Policy is set out on page 131. In order to avoid any conflict of interest, remuneration is managed through well-defined processes ensuring that no individual is involved in the decision-making process related to their own remuneration. In particular, the remuneration of all Executive Directors is set and approved by the Committee; none of the Executive Directors are involved in the determination of their own remuneration arrangements. Each year, with the support of external advisers, the Committee undertakes a review of the remuneration of the Executive Directors. It has oversight of the remuneration of the Leadership team, who are the senior managers immediately below Board level, and sets the remuneration of the Group HR Director and the Company Secretary. It considers the responsibilities, experience and performance of the Executive Directors and pay across the Group. Changes to the Policy since approval at the 2022 Annual General Meeting (AGM) are outlined in the Chair’s letter on pages 105 to 107 and are detailed to the right. The Committee also has the discretion to amend the Policy with regard to minor or administrative matters where it would be, in the opinion of the Committee, in the best interests of the Company, and disproportionate to seek or await shareholder approval. Subject to approval by shareholders at the 2025 AGM, this Policy will be effective for the 2025 performance year and will apply to incentive awards with performance periods beginning on 1 January 2025. Payments to Directors can only be made if they are consistent with a shareholder approved Policy or amendment to the Policy. Main changes to the Policy Our Policy is due to be renewed at our AGM in 2025 and so during the course of this year the Committee has carried out its triennial review of the Policy. The review concluded that our current Policy is working effectively and generally aligned with institutional investors’ ‘best practice’ expectations. As a result, we are not proposing structural changes to the current arrangements and structures. However, we are proposing a small number of amendments to the Policy to ensure that remuneration remains competitive, and the 2025 Policy is in line with market practice. In summary, the changes proposed are: – Increasing the maximum annual bonus opportunity from 150 per cent to 200 per cent of salary to reflect the change in size and scope of the business. – Broadening Remuneration Committee discretion to allow for both upwards and downwards adjustments to the formulaic incentive outcomes, in line with market practice. – Minor amendments to the Policy to mirror current market and best practice developments including simplifying the Policy where necessary and adding minor additional flexibility needed. The key changes are highlighted below. – Pension: The wording in the Policy will be amended to reflect that pension levels for the Executive Directors are in line with the majority of the workforce (currently 12 per cent of salary). – Benefits: the Policy will clarify that the liability to taxation on benefits may also be paid in limited circumstances. – Performance measures: we intend to refine our Policy wording to make it clearer that non-financial (ESG) measures may be included in the annual bonus and LTIP. While there is no current intention to move away from the current performance measures/weightings, we consider it appropriate to have the flexibility to do so in our Policy over the next three years. – Recruitment and termination payments: We have provided further clarity on how remuneration elements will be treated in recruitment or termination events (including what happens on a change of control). 123 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Chart 1: Remuneration Policy table: Executive Directors Element Strategic purpose Operation Maximum potential value Performance metrics Salary To attract and motivate high-calibre leaders in a competitive market and to recognise their skills, experience and contribution to Group performance. The Committee normally reviews Executive Directors’ base salaries each year in the context of total remuneration, taking into account the Directors’ responsibilities, experience and performance, pay across the Group and market competitiveness. The maximum annual salary increase will not normally exceed the average increase which applies across the wider workforce. However, larger increases may be awarded in certain circumstances including, but not limited to: an increase in scope or responsibilities of the role; salary progression for a newly appointed Executive Director; and where the Executive Director’s salary has fallen significantly below the market positioning. Not applicable. Pension benefits To provide a market competitive remuneration package. Retirement benefits are available to all UK employees and employees in certain Continental European jurisdictions dependent on local market practice and geographical differences. Executive Directors are eligible to receive a contribution to pension arrangements or cash in lieu. The maximum Company pension contribution for an Executive Director will be limited to that available to the majority of the UK workforce (currently 12 per cent of salary). None. Bonus To focus on the delivery of annual goals, to strive for superior performance and to achieve specific targets which support strategy, in particular for income generation, ESG ambitions and recurring profit. Bonuses are awarded annually and paid for performance normally over the full financial year. The Bonus is reviewed each financial year to ensure performance measures and targets are appropriate and support the business strategy. Payment is based on the achievement of performance targets. The Committee has the discretion to override formulaic outturns to ensure incentive payouts reflect underlying business performance, and is aligned to shareholder experience. The rules of the Bonus contain clawback provisions. The maximum Bonus opportunity for Executive Directors is 200 per cent of salary. At least 50 per cent of the Bonus will be based on financial metrics (such as Adjusted PBT and Rent Roll Growth). The remainder of the Bonus will be based on the achievement of non-financial objectives (such as ESG related measures). No more than 25 per cent of the relevant portion of the annual bonus is payable for achieving threshold performance, and no more than 50 per cent is payable for meeting target performance, increasing on a graduated scale, reaching 100 per cent for maximum performance, where the performance metric allows for such an approach. For 2025, where practical, metrics will include a stretch target, with a maximum payout of 90 per cent. The Committee retains discretion within Policy to adjust the payout schedule in future years for the stretch target as needed, considering factors such as the level of stretch in the targets or changes in the external environment. Deferred Share Bonus Plan (DSBP) To encourage retention of senior managers and provide a long-term link between the Bonus and share price growth so as to encourage long-term decision making. 50 per cent of any Bonus awarded in the year is deferred into shares in the DSBP for three years before vesting. The award does not carry any entitlement to dividends, however the Committee may, at the time of the release of the shares, deliver shares or a cash sum equivalent to the value of the dividends that would have been paid over the three-year holding period. The rules of the DSBP contain malus provisions. For Executive Directors, 50 per cent of the Bonus earned in respect of the previous year’s performance. If it so wished, the Committee could require a higher level of deferral. Vesting of shares is dependent on continued employment or good leaver status. Remuneration continued Directors’ Remuneration Policy continued 124 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Chart 1: Remuneration Policy table: Executive Directors continued Element Strategic purpose Operation Maximum potential value Performance metrics Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) To reward the execution of strategy and drive long-term returns for shareholders. The performance measures are selected to align with business strategy. The awards are designed to align the most senior managers’ goals with the creation of sustainable growth in shareholder value. The awards will also increase retention of these senior managers. LTIP awards may be granted in the form of a conditional award or nil-cost option in accordance with the rules of the LTIP. For LTIP awards, dividends will accrue on the LTIP shares which are released on vesting and will be paid in shares or cash. The Committee has the discretion to override formulaic outturns to ensure incentive payouts reflect underlying business performance, and is aligned to shareholder experience. The rules of the LTIP contain malus and clawback provisions. Maximum 300 per cent of salary in performance shares. If grants are to exceed 250 per cent of salary for Executive Directors other than the Chief Executive, prior consultation with shareholders will take place first. LTIP awards are subject to stretching performance conditions, which are normally measured over a three-year performance period. A two-year compulsory holding period applies to these LTIP shares after vesting and subject to payment of tax and statutory deductions. Awards will be subject to a combination of long-term measures which are aligned to the shareholder experience and may include shareholder value metrics (such as Total Shareholder Return), financial metrics (such as Total Property Return and Total Accounting Return) and ESG or strategic measures. At least two-thirds of the award will be subject to financial and/or shareholder return measures. The Committee will have discretion to set different measures and weightings for awards in future years to best support the strategy of the business at that time. Threshold performance will result in vesting of no more than 20 per cent of the relevant portion of the LTIP (where the nature of the performance metric allows such an approach). Sharesave To provide a market competitive remuneration package and to encourage employee share ownership across the Group. Sharesave is a HMRC approved scheme open to all eligible UK employees. Savings can be made over a three-year period to purchase shares in the Company at a price which is set at the beginning of the savings period. This price is usually set at a 20 per cent discount to the market price. Employees may save up to the HMRC limit across all Sharesave grants. None. Share Incentive Plan (SIP) and Global Share Incentive Plan (GSIP) To provide a market competitive remuneration package and to encourage employee share ownership across the Group. SIP is a HMRC approved scheme open to all eligible UK employees, subject to service. Eligible employees are awarded shares annually up to the HMRC limits. GSIP is designed on a similar basis to SIP, but is not HMRC approved and is operated for non-UK employees. The maximum award is subject to the HMRC limit. Award may be based on achievement of a target and is subject to a three-year holding period.

Other benefits currently include but are not limited to: car allowance; life assurance; disability insurance; private medical insurance; and health screening. The Committee retains the discretion to offer additional benefits as appropriate, for example, assistance with relocation. Any expenses incurred in carrying out duties will be fully reimbursed by the Company including any personal taxation associated with such expenses. The liability to taxation on benefits may also be paid in limited circumstances. – None. Shareholding guidelines To increase alignment between Executive Directors and shareholders including for a period post- employment. The Company requires Executive Directors to build, hold and retain (including after leaving employment) a certain level of shareholding. The way the shareholding guidelines are currently operated is set out on page 118 of the 2024 Directors’ Remuneration Report. – – Additional notes Remuneration Policy: the Policy for the Executive Directors is designed with regard to the pay and benefits for employees across the Group. Currently all employees are eligible for an annual Bonus on the same performance measures which are consistent with those of the Executive Directors, save that those below Board level have a fourth target based on their personal performance. The maximum Bonus opportunity is fixed according to seniority banding across the Company. Currently, the LTIP performance conditions are the same for all participants and the size of awards are determined by seniority. The Committee retains certain discretions in respect of the operation and administration of the incentive plans under their rules, in addition to the discretions described elsewhere in the Policy. Subject to consultation with major shareholders, the Committee retains the ability to adjust and/or to set different LTIP and Bonus performance measures if events occur (such as a change in strategy, a material acquisition and/or divestment of a Group business, or change in prevailing market conditions) which cause the Committee to determine that the measures are no longer appropriate and that amendment is required so that they achieve their original purpose. Payments from existing awards: Executive Directors are eligible to receive payment from any award made prior to the approval. Any outstanding share awards made in accordance with a previous Remuneration Policy will remain in effect and will vest in accordance with the terms under which they were granted. All historical share awards and bonus arrangements that were granted under any current or previous incentive schemes operated by the Company and remain outstanding remain eligible to vest/payout based on their original terms. Remuneration continued Directors’ Remuneration Policy continued 126 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Chart 2: Remuneration Policy table: Chair and Non-Executive Directors Element Strategic purpose Operation Maximum potential value Performance metrics Fees To attract high-calibre Non-Executive Directors and provide market appropriate fees. Fees are reviewed, normally annually, taking into account relevant market data. Additional fees are payable to reflect the time commitments and additional responsibilities. The fee paid to the Chair is set by the Committee while the fees paid to the Non-Executive Directors are set by the Board. No Director is involved in setting their own remuneration. Non-Executive Directors do not participate in any performance related remuneration and they do not receive any benefits other than reimbursement of business related expenses and any tax that might be charged thereon. Any increases in the fees of the Chair or the Non- Executive Directors will be based upon changes in roles and responsibilities, and market data. The Company’s Articles of Association specify an annual limit on Non-Executive Director fees. Currently, the limit is £1,000,000. – Remuneration continued Directors’ Remuneration Policy continued 127 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Malus and clawback Malus and clawback provisions apply to the bonus and awards made under the DSBP and LTIP over the time periods detailed below and may apply in the following circumstances: – fraud or serious misconduct on the part of the participant; – a serious misstatement in the Company’s financial results; – an error in assessing performance conditions, resulting in an overpayment; – when Company performance was achieved as a result of excessive risk taking; – serious reputational damage; or – corporate failure. The periods over which malus and clawback provisions apply are set out in the table below: Element Period Bonus/DSBP Until the third anniversary of the bonus payment date LTIP Until the second anniversary of the vesting date Incentive plan discretions The Remuneration Committee can exercise discretion in a number of areas when operating the Company’s incentive schemes, in line with the relevant rules of the schemes. These include (but are not limited to): – the choice of participants; – the size of awards in any year (subject to the limits set out in the Directors’ Remuneration Policy table); – the extent of payments or vesting in light of the achievement of the relevant performance conditions; – the determination of good or bad leavers and the treatment of outstanding awards (subject to the provisions of the scheme rules and the Remuneration Policy provisions); and – the treatment of outstanding awards in the event of a change of control. In addition, if events occur which cause the Remuneration Committee to conclude that any performance condition is no longer appropriate, that condition may be substituted, varied or waived as is considered reasonable in the circumstances in order to produce a fairer measure of performance that is not materially less difficult to satisfy. Choice of performance measures for 2025 and approaches to target setting The performance measures used in the incentives are aligned with the Company’s KPIs and the business strategy. The annual bonus plan performance metrics include a mix of financial targets and non-financial objectives, reflecting the key annual priorities of the Company. The financial metrics determine at least half the bonus and may include Adjusted PBT against budget, which supports the objective of delivering a sustainable, progressive dividend; and rent roll growth which focuses on driving the future rental income of the business. The remainder of the bonus will be based on non-financial measures, for example ESG metrics. LTIP awards will be subject to a combination of long-term measures which are aligned to the shareholder experience and may include shareholder value metrics (such as Total Shareholder Return), financial metrics (such as Total Property Return and Total Accounting Return) and ESG or strategic measures. Performance measures for 2025 will be in line with the approach in 2024. The annual bonus will be based on Adjusted PBT (37.5 per cent), Rent Roll Growth (37.5 per cent) and ESG targets (25 per cent). The LTIP will be subject to relative Total Shareholder Return (33 per cent), relative Total Property Return (33 per cent) and relative Total Accounting Return (33 per cent). Further details are set out on page 109. Targets for incentive plans are set to be stretching but achievable, taking into account internal and external reference points, including internal forecasts and market consensus. Policy on recruitment In determining appropriate remuneration for a new Executive Director, the Committee will take into consideration all relevant factors to ensure that arrangements are in the best interests of both the Company and its shareholders. The Committee may make an additional cash and/or share based award in respect of a new appointment to ‘buy out’ incentive arrangements forfeited on leaving a previous employer. In doing so, the Committee will take account of relevant factors, including any performance conditions attached to these awards, the likelihood of those conditions being met, and the proportion of the vesting period remaining, and will seek to do no more than match the fair value of awards foregone. In limited circumstances where employees are awarded benefits for which Executive Directors are not eligible, such as share retention awards, the Committee would consider honouring existing awards should these employees be appointed to the Board or where an individual is not an Executive Director but still falls within this Policy. Remuneration continued Directors’ Remuneration Policy continued 128 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Chart 3: Recruitment policy Component Approach Maximum opportunity Base salary The base salaries of new appointees will be determined taking into account the experience and skills of the individual, pay across the Group, relevant market data and their previous salary. – Bonus The structure set out in the Remuneration Policy table will apply to new appointees with the relevant maximum being pro-rated for their first year of employment. 200 per cent of salary. DSBP The structure set out in the Remuneration Policy table will apply to new appointees. 50 per cent of the Bonus awarded will be deferred. LTIP New appointees will be eligible for awards under the LTIP on the same terms as the other Executive Directors. Maximum 300 per cent of salary in performance shares. Therefore, the maximum level of variable incentive opportunity is 500 per cent of salary (300 per cent of salary in performance shares and 200 per cent of salary annual bonus). Pension New appointees will be offered membership of the SEGRO plc Group Personal Pension Plan or a cash alternative. The contribution available to the majority of the UK workforce (currently a contribution to their pension plan of 12 per cent of salary). Benefits Additional benefits in relation to recruitment may be provided where considered appropriate, for example, relocation expenses or allowances, legal fees and other recruitment-related costs may be payable. – Internal appointments to the Board When existing employees are promoted to the Board, the above Policy will apply, from the point where they are appointed to the Board and not retrospectively. In addition, any existing awards will be honoured and form part of ongoing remuneration arrangements. – Non-Executive Directors Fees will be in line with the Remuneration Policy and the fees provided for the other Non-Executive Directors. – Remuneration continued Directors’ Remuneration Policy continued 129 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Remuneration continued Directors’ Remuneration Policy continued Policy on service contracts Executive Directors The Company may terminate the Executive Directors’ service contract on up to 12 months’ notice, with no liquidating damages provisions. Non-Executive Directors The Chair and the Non-Executive Directors have letters of appointment which set out their duties and anticipated time commitment to the Company. They are required to disclose to the Board any changes to their other significant commitments. The Non-Executive Directors are appointed for an initial term of three years. The appointments may be extended for further three-year periods on the recommendation of the Nomination Committee and subject to the Board’s agreement. The Non- Executive Directors’ letters of appointment contain a three-month notice period and the Chair’s contains a six-month notice period. Further details are set out in Chart 4 below.

Change of control On a change of control, Executive Directors’ incentive awards will be treated in accordance with the rules of the relevant plans. In summary: – Bonus: Bonus in the year of a change of control may be paid based on the Committee’s assessment of performance and, the Committee has the discretion to determine whether or not to pro-rate for the portion of the year elapsed prior to the change of control. DSBP awards would normally vest in full. When assessing performance on a change of control, the Committee can determine performance on such reasonable basis as it considers appropriate, having regard to all of the circumstances. – LTIP: The rules provide that in the event of a change of control, outstanding share-based awards may vest to the extent that the Committee determines that performance targets are met shortly before the date of the event. Unless the Committee determines that pro-rating would be inappropriate in the circumstances, awards will be pro-rated for time. There is discretion to increase the level of vesting if the Committee believes that exceptional circumstances warrant such treatment. One or more of the performance criteria may be replaced, or the extent to which targets have been met may be determined on a different basis. – In each case, the Committee is the Remuneration Committee shortly before the change of control takes place. Policy on termination payments The Company retains the right to terminate the service contract of any Executive Director subject to contractually agreed payments in lieu of notice which are limited to annual salary plus any specified benefits. Payments are normally phased over the 12-month notice period, based on the principle of a Director’s duty to seek alternative employment and thereby mitigate their loss. The Committee reserves the right to make additional exit payments where such payments are made in good faith, for example: in discharge of an existing legal obligation (or by way of damages for breach of such an obligation); or by way of settlement or compromise of any claim arising in connection with the termination of a Director’s office or employment. In determining compensation, the Committee will take into account the circumstances of the departure, best practice and the provisions of the Code, and will take legal advice on the Company’s liability to pay compensation. For the proportion of the financial year worked, a bonus may be payable pro-rata, subject to performance, at the discretion of the Committee. There will be no bonus payment in respect of any period of notice not worked. Under the rules of the LTIP and the DSBP, the Committee has discretion to declare a Director leaving the Company to be a ‘good leaver’ as defined under the respective rules of the schemes in addition to certain prescribed reasons (for example if they leave the Company due to ill health, injury or disability or retirement). In respect of LTIP, this would normally mean that awards would vest on the normal vesting date, subject to the achievement of performance conditions, with any vesting normally pro-rated in accordance with the proportion of the vesting period served. The holding period would normally apply post vesting. In respect of the DSBP, Executive Directors who are good leavers and are recipients of awards would normally receive some or all of their shares at the end of the holding period. Where a Director may be entitled to pursue a claim against the Company in respect of their statutory employment rights or any other claim arising from the employment or its termination, the Company will be entitled to negotiate settlement terms (financial or otherwise) with the Director that the Committee considers to be reasonable in all the circumstances and in the best interests of the Company and to enter into a settlement agreement with the Director to effect both the terms agreed under the service agreement and any additional statutory or other claims, including bonus and/or share awards, in line with the policies described above. The Committee may also provide a contribution towards reasonable legal costs and the provision of outplacement services for an Executive Director leaving the Company. Where a Director retires, the Committee may provide a retirement gift of such value as is considered reasonable. Non-Executive Directors are not entitled to any compensation on loss of office. 130 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Policy on Executive Directors’ external appointments With the support of the Chair and Chief Executive, the Executive Directors may normally be permitted to take one non-executive directorship outside the Group, as these roles can broaden the experience brought to the Board. Such appointments require Board approval and the time commitment the appointment will require is taken into consideration. Executive Directors may retain fees for external appointments.

Consideration of conditions elsewhere in the Group The Remuneration Policy for the Executive Directors is designed with regard to the policy for the workforce as a whole. The remuneration approach is consistently applied at levels below the Executive Directors. Key features include: – employees are eligible for an annual bonus and the performance measures are broadly consistent across the business. – at senior levels, remuneration is increasingly long-term and ‘at risk’ with an increased emphasis on performance related pay and share based remuneration. – remuneration is regularly benchmarked across the Group. – the level of pension allowance is aligned with the majority of the UK workforce (currently 12 per cent of salary). – all eligible UK employees are invited to join the Sharesave scheme and are eligible to receive an award under the SIP. The Committee also approves the remuneration of the Executive Committee and other senior executives. The Committee receives updates throughout the year to consider the framework and policies in place for workforce remuneration to ensure their alignment with Executive remuneration and Company culture. The Committee also approves the budget for annual salary increases across the workforce. Each year, the Non-Executive Directors hold a series of informal engagement sessions with employees from across the business to hear first-hand how they feel about working at SEGRO. This includes a session which covers Executive remuneration to outline the Executive remuneration framework and to answer any questions and receive feedback from employees. This is further detailed in the case study on page 117. Consideration of shareholder views The Committee remains committed to open dialogue with shareholders on remuneration. When determining remuneration, the Committee takes into account investor and proxy guidance, and the views of shareholders. In 2024, it undertook a dedicated consultation process to offer meetings with the Committee Chair to discuss the proposed changes to the 2022 Policy and to offer the opportunity to provide feedback, as covered in the Chair’s letter on pages 105 to 107. The Committee engaged with our largest 20 investors representing approximately 60 per cent of the share register and based on the feedback received, there were no immediate concerns raised with regards to the proposed changes to the 2022 Policy and as a result no amendments were required to the proposed 2025 Policy. The Chair of the Remuneration Committee is available for meetings with shareholders should they have any concerns about remuneration matters which they wish to discuss.

In addition, all employees have completed mandatory online training on modern slavery. Any employee who breaches our Anti-Slavery and Human Trafficking Policy or Human Rights Policy will face disciplinary action, which could result in dismissal for misconduct or gross misconduct.

We have audited the financial statements, included within the Annual Report & Accounts 2024 (the “Annual Report”), which comprise: the Group and Company Balance Sheets as at 31 December 2024; the Group Income Statement and the Group Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Group Cash Flow Statement, and the Group and Company Statements of Changes in Equity for the year then ended; and the notes to the financial statements comprising material accounting policy information and other explanatory information. Our opinion is consistent with our reporting to the Audit Committee. Separate opinion in relation to international financial reporting standards adopted pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 1606/2002 as it applies in the European Union As explained in note 1 to the financial statements, the group, in addition to applying UK-adopted international accounting standards, has also applied international financial reporting standards adopted pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 1606/2002 as it applies in the European Union. In our opinion, the group financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with international financial reporting standards adopted pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 1606/2002 as it applies in the European Union. Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (“ISAs (UK)”), International Standards on Auditing issued by the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board (“ISAs”) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under ISAs (UK) and ISAs are further described in the Auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Independence We remained independent of the group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, which includes the FRC’s Ethical Standard, as applicable to listed public interest entities, and the International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards) issued by the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA Code), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. To the best of our knowledge and belief, we declare that non-audit services prohibited by either the FRC’s Ethical Standard or Article 5(1) of Regulation (EU) No 537/2014 were not provided. Other than those disclosed in Note 6 to the Financial Statements, we have provided no non-audit services to the company or its controlled undertakings in the period under audit. Our audit approach Overview Audit scope – We tailored the scope of our audit to ensure that we performed enough work to be able to give an opinion on the financial statements as a whole. – Audit procedures on Rental Income and Valuation of Investment Properties are performed centrally by the group audit team in the UK. – Full scope audit of SEGRO European Logistics Partnership (SELP) Joint Venture by component auditors and full scope audit of SEGRO plc by the group audit team in the UK. – In addition, component auditors performed the audit of specific balances and transactions in certain territories. – Over 95% coverage of total assets of the group Key audit matters – Valuation of investment properties (group) – Valuation of investments in and loans to subsidiaries (parent) Materiality – Overall group materiality: £175 million (2023: £173 million) based on 1% of total assets. – Specific group materiality: £23 million (2023: £20 million) based on 5% of the group’s adjusted profit before tax. – Overall company materiality: £122 million (2023: £118 million) based on 1% of total assets. – Performance materiality: £132 million (2023: £130 million) (group) and £92 million (2023: £89 million) (company). The scope of our audit As part of designing our audit, we determined materiality and assessed the risks of material misstatement in the financial statements. Key audit matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in the auditors’ professional judgement, were of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and include the most significant assessed risks of material misstatement (whether or not due to fraud) identified by the auditors, 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, and any comments we make on the results of our procedures thereon, were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. This is not a complete list of all risks identified by our audit. The key audit matters below are consistent with last year. 135 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Independent auditors’ report to the members of SEGRO plc continued Key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter Valuation of investment properties (group) Refer to the Audit Committee Report and the Financial Statements (including notes to the Financial Statements; Note 1, Material Accounting Policy Information; Note 13, Investment Properties; and Note 25. Property Valuation Techniques, Sustainability and Climate Change Considerations and Related Quantitative Information). We focussed on the valuation of investment properties because investment properties represent the principal element of the net asset value as disclosed in the Balance Sheet in the financial statements and is an area of significant estimation uncertainty. The portfolio is held by the group, and through joint ventures and includes warehouses and light industrial buildings, including data centres. These are concentrated in the UK, France, Germany and Italy. The remainder of the portfolio is located across other European countries including Poland, Spain, the Netherlands and the Czech Republic. The portfolio includes completed investment properties and development properties. The valuation of the group’s portfolio is inherently subjective due to, among other factors, the individual nature of each property, its location and the expected future rentals for that particular property. The significance of the estimates and judgements involved, coupled with the fact that only a small percentage difference in individual property valuations, when aggregated, could result in a material misstatement, warranted specific audit focus in this area. For development sites, factors include projected costs to complete, time until practical completion and the ability to let if no pre-let agreement is in place. Valuations are carried out by third party valuers CBRE (the ‘Valuers’). The Valuers were engaged by the Directors, and performed their work in accordance with the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (‘RICS’) Valuation – Global Standards 2024. The valuations take into account the property-specific information including the current tenancy agreements and rental income, condition and location of the property, and future rental prospects, as well as prevailing market yields and market transactions. Given the inherent subjectivity involved in the valuation of investment properties, the need for deep market knowledge when determining the most appropriate assumptions, and the technicalities of the valuation methodology, we engaged our internal valuation experts (qualified chartered surveyors) to assist us in our audit of this matter. Assessing the group’s external Valuers’ expertise and objectivity We assessed the Valuers’ qualifications and expertise and read their terms of engagement with the group to determine whether there were any matters that might have affected their objectivity or may have imposed scope limitations upon their work. We also considered fees and other contractual arrangements that might exist between the group and the Valuers. We found no evidence to suggest that the objectivity of the Valuers was compromised. Testing the valuations assumptions and capital movement: We obtained and read the CBRE valuation reports covering all of the group’s investment properties. We held meetings with management and the Valuers, at which the valuations and the key assumptions therein were discussed. We focused on outliers (where the assumptions used and/or year on year capital value movement were out of line with our range of assumptions developed using externally published market data for the relevant sector). To verify that the valuation approach was suitable for use in determining the carrying value for investment properties in the Financial Statements, we: – Confirmed that the valuation approach was in accordance with RICS standards; – Obtained valuation details of every property held by the group and developed ranges for each key valuation assumption or capital value movement, determined by reference to published benchmarks and using our experience and knowledge of the market. Compared the investment yields used by the Valuers with the expected range of yields and the year on year capital movement to our expected range; – Assessed the reasonableness of other assumptions that are not readily comparable with published benchmarks; – With the support of our internal valuation experts, we also questioned the external valuers as to the extent to which recent market transactions and expected rental values used in deriving their valuations took into account the impact of climate change and related ESG considerations; and – Verified where there could be alternative use opportunities, that this had been appropriately taken into account. In addition to the above, where assumptions were outside the expected range or otherwise appeared unusual, and/or valuations showed unexpected movements, we undertook further investigations and, when necessary, held further discussions with the Valuers and obtained evidence to support explanations received. The supporting evidence and valuation commentaries provided by the Valuers, enabled us to consider the property specific factors that had or may have had an impact on value, including recent comparable transactions where appropriate. Information and standing data We agreed the amounts per the valuation reports to the accounting records and from there we agreed the related balances through to the Financial Statements. We tested the standing data which the group provided to the Valuers for use in the performance of the valuation. This involved testing controls on a sample basis over the input of lease data for leases and testing the accuracy of lease and other property information. For development properties, we also confirmed that the supporting information for construction contracts and budgets was consistent with the group’s records, for example by inspecting construction contracts. For development properties, capitalised expenditure was tested on a sample basis to invoices, and budgeted costs to complete were compared with supporting evidence (for example construction contracts) to support the inputs included within their valuation at the year end. Overall outcome We concluded that the assumptions used in the valuations by the Valuers were supportable in light of the evidence obtained. 136 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Independent auditors’ report to the members of SEGRO plc continued Key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter Valuation of investments in and loans to subsidiaries (parent) Refer to note 7 (Investments by the Company) to the financial statements which discloses the company’s investments in and loans to subsidiaries as at 31 December 2024. This is following the recognition of a provision for impairment on investments in and loans to subsidiaries recognised in the year. The company’s accounting policy for investments and loans is to hold them at cost less any impairment. Impairment of the loans is calculated in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standard 9 (Financial Instruments). Investments in subsidiaries are assessed for impairment in line with International Accounting Standard 36 (Impairment of Assets). Given the inherent judgement in assessing both the carrying value of a subsidiary company and the expected credit loss of intercompany loan receivables, this was identified as a key audit matter. We assessed the accounting policy for investments and loans to subsidiaries to ensure they were compliant with the applicable accounting standards. We obtained the directors’ impairment assessment for the recoverability of investments in and loans to subsidiaries as at 31 December 2024. We verified that the methodology used by the directors in arriving at the carrying value of each subsidiary, and the expected credit loss provision for intercompany receivables, was compliant with applicable accounting standards. We identified the key estimate within the assessment for impairment of both the investments and loans to subsidiaries to be the underlying valuation of investment property held by the subsidiaries. For details of our procedures over investment property valuations please refer to the group key audit matter above. We have no matters to report in respect of this work. How we tailored the audit scope We tailored the scope of our audit to ensure that we performed enough work to be able to give an opinion on the financial statements as a whole, taking into account the structure of the group and the company, the accounting processes and controls, and the industry in which they operate. The group’s reportable segments are the two property businesses: United Kingdom (UK) and Continental Europe (CE). In establishing the overall approach to the group audit, we determined the type of work that needed to be performed at reporting components, based on regions and countries within the UK and CE, by us, as the group engagement team, or component auditors operating under our instruction. The group operates a common IT environment, processes and controls for rental income and payroll across its reported segments. The group’s valuation and treasury functions are also based at the corporate centre in the UK. The related balances were therefore largely audited by the group audit team in the UK. Additionally, audits of specific balances and specified procedures were performed by component audit teams, such that the total testing programme provided sufficient audit evidence over all financial statement line items. The SELP Joint Venture was included as being in scope for a full scope audit. As noted above, the work on rental income and valuation of investment properties for the Joint Venture was performed by the group audit team. We determined the level of involvement we needed to have in the component auditor’s work to be able to conclude whether sufficient appropriate audit evidence had been obtained as a basis for our opinion on the group financial statements as a whole. We issued formal, written instructions to the component auditors setting out the work to be performed by each of them. Throughout the audit process, the group audit team has been in close contact with the audit teams on location in each region to oversee the audit process. Senior team members also attended the clearance meetings for each component. During the clearance meetings, the results of the work performed by all component teams were discussed. The group engagement team also evaluated the sufficiency of the audit evidence obtained by component teams. Taking into account the components and Joint Ventures subject to a full scope audit, the centralised and other testing performed, coverage over the total assets of the group was over 95%. In respect of the company financial statements, the group audit team performed a full scope statutory audit. The impact of climate risk on our audit In planning our audit, we made enquiries with management to understand the extent of the potential impact of climate change risk on the financial statements. Our evaluation of this conclusion included challenging key judgements and estimates in areas where we considered that there was greatest potential for climate change impact. We particularly considered how climate change risks would impact the assumptions made in the valuation of investment properties as explained in our key audit matter above. We also considered the consistency of the disclosures in relation to climate change made within the Annual Report, the financial statements and the knowledge obtained from our audit. Materiality The scope of our audit was influenced by our application of materiality. We set certain quantitative thresholds for materiality. These, together with qualitative considerations, helped us to determine the scope of our audit and the nature, timing and extent of our audit procedures on the individual financial statement line items and disclosures and in evaluating the effect of misstatements, both individually and in aggregate on the financial statements as a whole. Based on our professional judgement, we determined materiality for the financial statements as a whole as follows: Financial statements – group Financial statements – company Overall materiality £175 million (2023: £173 million). £122 million (2023: £118 million). How we determined it 1% of total assets 1% of total assets Rationale for benchmark applied The primary measurement attribute of the group is the carrying value of property investments. On this basis, we set an overall group materiality level based on total assets. The primary measurement attribute of the company is the carrying value of investments in subsidiaries. On this basis, we set an overall company materiality level based on total assets. 137 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Independent auditors’ report to the members of SEGRO plc continued In addition to overall group materiality, a specific materiality was also applied to group Income Statement line items that impact adjusted earnings, which is based on profit before tax, adjusted to exclude fair value gain/(losses) on investment property and derivatives and impairment loss on loan due from associate. We set a specific materiality level of £23 million (2023: £20 million), equating to 5% of adjusted profit before tax. For each component in the scope of our group audit, we allocated a materiality that is less than our overall group materiality. The range of materiality allocated across components was between £36 million and £130 million. Certain components were audited to a local statutory audit materiality that was also less than our overall group materiality. We use performance materiality to reduce to an appropriately low level the probability that the aggregate of uncorrected and undetected misstatements exceeds overall materiality. Specifically, we use performance materiality in determining the scope of our audit and the nature and extent of our testing of account balances, classes of transactions and disclosures, for example in determining sample sizes. Our performance materiality was 75% (2023: 75%) of overall materiality, amounting to £132 million (2023: £130 million) for the group financial statements and £92 million (2023: £89 million) for the company financial statements. In determining the performance materiality, we considered a number of factors – the history of misstatements, risk assessment and aggregation risk and the effectiveness of controls – and concluded that an amount at the upper end of our normal range was appropriate. We agreed with the Audit Committee that we would report to them misstatements identified during our audit above £9 million (group audit) (2023: £9 million) and £6 million (company audit) (2023: £5 million) as well as misstatements below those amounts that, in our view, warranted reporting for qualitative reasons. Conclusions relating to going concern Our evaluation of the directors’ assessment of the group’s and the company’s ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting included: – Procedures to identify events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability to continue as a going concern and whether or not a material uncertainty related to going concern exists; – Obtaining the Directors’ assessment of going concern and assessing the impact and the basis for the downside stress scenarios that have been applied; – Tested the integrity of the underlying formulas and calculations within the going concern and cashflow models; – Evaluation and corroboration of management’s significant assumptions used to assess going concern. This includes upcoming debt maturities, contracted capital expenditure and operational cash flows, and whether or not they are appropriate in the context of changes from prior periods and align with our understanding of the entity and other relevant areas of the entity’s business activities; – Review of potential financial or non-financial debt covenant defaults leading to acceleration of repayment of borrowing facilities; and – Assessing the group and company’s liquidity and whether the entity has adequately disclosed all required going concern events and conditions. 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 and the company’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 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. However, because not all future events or conditions can be predicted, this conclusion is not a guarantee as to the group’s and the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In relation to the directors’ reporting on how they have applied the UK Corporate Governance Code, 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. 138 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Independent auditors’ report to the members of SEGRO plc continued Reporting on other information The other information comprises all of the information in the Annual Report other than the financial statements and our auditors’ report thereon. The directors are responsible for the other information. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion or, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in this report, any form of assurance thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, 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 audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify an apparent material inconsistency or material misstatement, we are required to perform procedures to conclude whether there is a material misstatement of the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. 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 based on these responsibilities. With respect to the Strategic report and Directors’ Report, we also considered whether the disclosures required by the UK Companies Act 2006 have been included. Based on our work undertaken in the course of the audit, the Companies Act 2006 requires us also to report certain opinions and matters as described below. Strategic report and Directors’ Report In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit, the information given in the Strategic report and Directors’ Report for the year ended 31 December 2024 is consistent with the financial statements and has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. In light of the knowledge and understanding of the group and company and their environment obtained in the course of the audit, we did not identify any material misstatements in the Strategic report and Directors’ Report. Directors’ Remuneration In our opinion, the part of the Directors’ Remuneration Report to be audited has been properly prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 2006. Corporate governance statement The Listing Rules require us to review the directors’ statements in relation to going concern, longer-term viability and that part of the corporate governance statement relating to the company’s compliance with the provisions of the UK Corporate Governance Code specified for our review. Our additional responsibilities with respect to the corporate governance statement as other information are described in the Reporting on other information section of this report. 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 and our knowledge obtained during the audit, and we have nothing material to add or draw attention to in relation to: – The directors’ confirmation that they have carried out a robust assessment of the emerging and principal risks; – The disclosures in the Annual Report that describe those principal risks, what procedures are in place to identify emerging risks and an explanation of how these are being managed or mitigated; – The directors’ statement in the financial statements about whether they considered it appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing them, and their identification of any material uncertainties to the group’s and company’s ability to continue to do so over a period of at least twelve months from the date of approval of the financial statements; – The directors’ explanation as to their assessment of the group’s and company’s prospects, the period this assessment covers and why the period is appropriate; and – The directors’ statement as to whether they have a reasonable expectation that the company will be able to continue in operation and meet its liabilities as they fall due over the period of its assessment, including any related disclosures drawing attention to any necessary qualifications or assumptions. Our review of the directors’ statement regarding the longer-term viability of the group and company was substantially less in scope than an audit and only consisted of making inquiries and considering the directors’ process supporting their statement; checking that the statement is in alignment with the relevant provisions of the UK Corporate Governance Code; and considering whether the statement is consistent with the financial statements and our knowledge and understanding of the group and company and their environment obtained in the course of the audit. In addition, 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 and our knowledge obtained during the audit: – The directors’ statement that they consider the Annual Report, taken as a whole, is fair, balanced and understandable, and provides the information necessary for the members to assess the group’s and company’s position, performance, business model and strategy; – The section of the Annual Report that describes the review of effectiveness of risk management and internal control systems; and – The section of the Annual Report describing the work of the Audit Committee. We have nothing to report in respect of our responsibility to report when the directors’ statement relating to the company’s compliance with the Code does not properly disclose a departure from a relevant provision of the Code specified under the Listing Rules for review by the auditors. 139 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Independent auditors’ report to the members of SEGRO plc continued Responsibilities for the financial statements and the audit Responsibilities of the directors for the financial statements As explained more fully in the Statement of Directors’ responsibilities in respect of the Financial Statements, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the applicable framework and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view. The directors are also responsible for such internal control as they 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 and the company’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 the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditors’ 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 auditors’ 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) and ISAs 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. Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below. Based on our understanding of the group and industry, we identified that the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations related to compliance with the Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) status and SIIC regime and the UK regulatory principles, such as those governed by the Financial Conduct Authority, and we considered the extent to which non-compliance might have a material effect on the financial statements. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the financial statements such as the Companies Act 2006. We evaluated management’s incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements (including the risk of override of controls), and determined that the principal risks were related to posting inappropriate journal entries to increase revenue, and management bias in accounting estimates and judgemental areas of the Financial Statements such as valuation of investment properties. The group engagement team shared this risk assessment with the component auditors so that they could include appropriate audit procedures in response to such risks in their work. Audit procedures performed by the group engagement team and/or component auditors included: – Discussions with management and internal audit, including consideration of known or suspected instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations and fraud, and review of the reports made by internal audit; – Understanding management’s internal controls designed to prevent and detect irregularities; – Assessment of matters, if any, reported on the group’s whistleblowing helpline and the results of management’s investigation of such matters; – Reviewing the group’s litigation register in so far as it related to non-compliance with laws and regulations and fraud; – Reviewing relevant meeting minutes, including those of the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee; – Designing audit procedures to incorporate unpredictability around the nature, timing and extent of our testing; – Review of tax compliance with the involvement of our tax specialists in the audit; – Procedures relating to the valuation of investment properties described in the related key audit matter above; and – Identifying and testing journal entries, in particular any journal entries posted with unusual account combinations. There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above. We are less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations that are not closely related to events and transactions reflected in the financial statements. Also, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion. Our audit testing might include testing complete populations of certain transactions and balances, possibly using data auditing techniques. However, it typically involves selecting a limited number of items for testing, rather than testing complete populations. We will often seek to target particular items for testing based on their size or risk characteristics. In other cases, we will use audit sampling to enable us to draw a conclusion about the population from which the sample is selected. A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements in accordance with ISAs (UK) is located on the FRC’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditors’ report. 140 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Independent auditors’ report to the members of SEGRO plc continued As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also: – Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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. – 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 and company’s internal control. – Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management. – Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s 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 and company’s ability to continue as a going concern. 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 consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated 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 and company to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group and company 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, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied. 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. Use of this report This report, including the opinions, has been prepared for and only for the company’s members as a body in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and for no other purpose. We do not, in giving these opinions, accept or assume responsibility for any other purpose or to any other person to whom this report is shown or into whose hands it may come save where expressly agreed by our prior consent in writing. Other required reporting Companies Act 2006 exception reporting Under the Companies Act 2006 we are required to report to you if, in our opinion: – we have not obtained all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or – adequate accounting records have not been kept by the company, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or – certain disclosures of directors’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or – the company financial statements and the part of the Directors’ Remuneration Report to be audited are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns. We have no exceptions to report arising from this responsibility. Appointment Following the recommendation of the Audit Committee, we were appointed by the members on 22 April 2016 to audit the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2016 and subsequent financial periods. The period of total uninterrupted engagement is nine years, covering the years ended 31 December 2016 to 31 December 2024.

As discussed in the Financial review on page 46, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company and Group have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of the Financial Statements. At 31 December 2024 the Group held cash and available committed facilities of £1.7 billion (Company: £1.7 billion) with a long-dated debt maturity profile. This provides significant liquidity to meet the Group’s and Company’s refinancing requirements of maturing debt, operational requirements and capital commitments for the foreseeable future. The financial covenants have been stress tested and substantial headroom exists against the gearing and interest cover covenants at 31 December 2024 and the covenants are not expected to be breached for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of the Financial Statements. The Financial Statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of properties and certain financial assets and liabilities including derivatives. The accounting policies set out below have, unless otherwise stated, been applied consistently to all periods presented in these Group and Company Financial Statements. New and amended standards adopted The Group and Company has applied the following standards and amendments for the first time for their annual reporting period commencing 1 January 2024: – Amendments to IAS 1, ‘Presentation of financial statements’, on classification of liabilities – Amendments to IFRS 16, Leases on sale and leaseback – Amendments to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures: Supplier Finance Arrangements The amendments did not have a material impact on the amounts recognised in the prior or current period and are not expected to significantly affect future periods. New standards and amendments not yet adopted Certain new accounting standards and amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after 1 January 2024, and have not been applied in preparing these Financial Statements: – Amendments to IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates: Lack of Exchangeability – Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7, Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments – IFRS 19, ‘Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures’ – IFRS 18, ‘Presentation and disclosure in financial statements’ IFRS 18 will replace IAS 1 Presentation of financial statements and effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2027. IFRS 18 will not impact the recognition or measurement of items in the financial statements, but its impacts on presentation and disclosure is expected to be material. Management is currently assessing the detailed implications of applying the new standard on the Group’s consolidated financial statements. The other standards and amendments that are not yet effective are not expected to have a material impact on the Group in the current or future reporting periods and on the foreseeable future transactions. 1. Material Accounting Policy Information General information SEGRO plc (the Company) is a public limited company, limited by shares, incorporated, domiciled and registered in England in the United Kingdom under the Companies Act. The address of the registered office is given on the inside back cover. The principal activities of the Company and its subsidiaries (the Group) and the nature of the Group’s operations are set out in the Strategic Report on pages 1 to 2. These Financial Statements are presented in pounds sterling to the nearest million because that is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the Group operates and is the functional currency of the Company. Basis of preparation The Group Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with UK-adopted International Accounting Standards (IAS) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) adopted pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 1606/2002 as it applies in the European Union. UK adopted International Accounting Standards differs in certain respects from International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU. The differences have no material impact on the Financial Statements for the periods presented, which therefore also comply with International Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU. In addition, the Group has also disclosed additional measures relating to the Best Practice Recommendations Guidelines issued by the European Public Real Estate Association (EPRA) as appropriate, as discussed further in Note 2 and Note 12. The Company Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 101 Reduced disclosure Framework (FRS 101) and the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies reporting under those standards. Previously the Company Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with UK-adopted IAS and transitioning to FRS 101 for the year ended 31 December 2024, the Company has made no measurement and recognition adjustments. The Directors have taken advantage of the exemption offered by section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 not to present a separate income statement and statement of comprehensive income for the Company. In these Financial Statements, the Company has applied the exemptions under FRS 101 in respect of the following disclosures: – IAS 7 ‘Statement of Cash Flows’ and related notes – Disclosure in respect of transactions with wholly owned subsidiaries – The effects of new but not yet effective IFRSs – Paragraph 17 of IAS 24 ‘Related Party Disclosures’ As the Group financial statements include the equivalent disclosures, the Company has also taken the exemptions under FRS 101 available in respect of the following disclosures: – The requirements of paragraphs 91–99 of IFRS 13 ‘Fair Value Measurement’ to disclose information of fair value valuation techniques and inputs – Disclosures required by IFRS 7 ‘Financial Instruments: Disclosures’ 147 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Notes to the Financial Statements continued Basis of consolidation The consolidated Financial Statements comprise the Financial Statements of the Company and the Subsidiaries (‘the Group’), plus the Group’s share of the results and net assets of its joint ventures and associates. Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity when it 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. In assessing control, the Group takes into consideration potential voting rights. The acquisition date is the date on which control is transferred to the acquirer. The Financial Statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated Financial Statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. Losses applicable to the non- controlling interests in a subsidiary are allocated to the non-controlling interests even if doing so causes the non-controlling interests to have a deficit balance. Investments and loans in subsidiaries held by the Company Investments and loans in subsidiaries held by the Company are stated at cost less any impairment. Impairment of loans is calculated in accordance with IFRS 9 and impairment of investments is calculated in accordance with IAS 36 with further details provided in Note 7(iv). Joint ventures A joint venture is a contract under which the Group and other parties undertake an activity or invest in an entity, under joint control. The Group uses equity accounting for such entities, carrying its investment at cost plus the movement in the Group’s share of net assets after acquisition, less impairment. Associates Associates are all entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control or joint control. This is generally the case where the Group holds between 20 per cent and 50 per cent of the voting rights. The Group uses equity accounting for such entities, carrying its investment at cost plus the movement in the Group’s share of net assets after acquisition, less impairment. Where the Group’s share of losses in an equity accounted investment equals or exceeds its interest in the entity, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the other entity. Transactions eliminated on consolidation Intra-Group balances and transactions, and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-Group transactions, are eliminated. Unrealised gains arising from transactions with equity- accounted investees are eliminated against the investment to the extent of the Group’s interest in the investee. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment on the asset transferred. Business combinations The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method. The cost of the acquisition is measured at the aggregate of the fair values of assets given, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity instruments issued by the Group in exchange for control of the acquiree. Acquisition related costs are recognised in the Income Statement as incurred. The acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities that meet the conditions for recognition under IFRS 3 are recognised at their fair value at the acquisition date, except for non-current assets (or disposal groups) that are classified as held for sale in accordance with IFRS 5 ‘Non Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations’, which are recognised and measured at fair value less costs to sell. Goodwill arising on acquisition is recognised as an asset measured at cost, being the excess of the cost of the business combination over the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities recognised. If, after reassessment, the Group’s interest in the net fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities exceeds the cost of the business combination, the excess is recognised immediately in the Income Statement. The interest of non-controlling interest shareholders in the acquiree is initially measured at their proportion of the net fair value of the assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities recognised. When the consideration transferred by the Group in a business combination includes a contingent consideration arrangement, the contingent consideration is measured at its acquisition-date fair value. Changes in fair value of the contingent consideration that qualify as measurement period adjustments are adjusted retrospectively, with corresponding adjustments against goodwill. Measurement period adjustments are adjustments that arise from additional information obtained during the ‘measurement period’ (which cannot exceed one year from the acquisition date) about facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date. Contingent consideration that is classified as an asset or a liability is re-measured at subsequent reporting dates in accordance with IFRS 9, as appropriate, with the corresponding gain or loss being recognised in the Income Statement. If the business combination is achieved in stages, the acquisition date carrying value of the acquirer’s previously held equity interest in the acquiree is remeasured to fair value at the acquisition date. Any gains or losses arising from such remeasurement are recognised in the Income Statement within realised and unrealised property gains and losses. The same treatment is applied for acquisitions of a subsidiary achieved in stages that meet the IFRS 3 concentration test to be treated as an asset acquisition. For acquisitions of a subsidiary that meet the IFRS 3 concentration test to be treated as an asset acquisition, 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 do not give rise to goodwill, generally no deferred tax is recognised on initial temporary differences and transaction costs are capitalised. The Group has elected to initially measure the interest of non-controlling interest shareholders in the acquiree at their proportion of the acquisition date net fair value of the assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities recognised. 148 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Notes to the Financial Statements continued Property acquisitions and disposals Properties are treated as acquired at the point when the Group assumes the control of ownership and as disposed when transferred to the buyer. Generally, this would occur on completion of the contract. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the property, which is calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset at the commencement of the accounting period plus capital expenditure in the period, is included in profit or loss in the period in which the property is derecognised. Gains or losses on disposal of investment properties are shown in the Income Statement within realised and unrealised property gains and losses. Leases At inception, the Group assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease. This assessment involves the exercise of judgement about whether the Group obtains substantially all the economic benefits from the use of that asset, and whether the Group has the right to direct the use of the asset. The Group recognises a right-of-use (ROU) asset and the lease liability at the commencement date of the lease. Lease liabilities include the present value of payments which generally include fixed payments and variable payments that depend on an index (such as an inflation index). When the lease contains an extension or purchase option that the Group considers reasonably certain to be exercised, the cost of the option is included in the lease payments. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance cost. The lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease if that rate can be readily determined or if not, the incremental borrowing rate is used. The finance cost is charged to profit or loss over the lease period so as to produce a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. Cash payments relating to the principal portion of the lease liabilities are presented as cash flows from financing activities and cash payments for the interest portion are presented as cash flows from operating activities. The ROU asset is measured at a cost based on the amount of the initial measurement of the lease liability, plus initial direct costs and the cost of obligations to refurbish the asset, less any incentives received. The ROU asset (other than the ROU assets that relate to land or property that meets the definition of investment property under IAS 40) is depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or the useful life of the underlying asset. The ROU asset is subject to testing for impairment if there is an indicator of impairment. ROU assets are included in the heading property, plant and equipment, and the lease liability included in the headings current and non current trade and other payables on the Balance Sheet. Foreign currency transactions Foreign currency transactions are translated to the respective functional currency of Group entities at the foreign exchange rate ruling on the transaction date. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from settling these, or from retranslating monetary assets and liabilities held in foreign currencies, are booked in the Income Statement. The exception is for foreign currency loans and derivatives that hedge investments in foreign subsidiaries, where exchange differences are booked in equity until the investment is realised. Consolidation of foreign entities Assets and liabilities of foreign entities are translated into sterling at exchange rates ruling at the Balance Sheet date. Their income, expenses and cash flows are translated at the average rate for the period or at spot rate for significant items. Resultant exchange differences are booked in Other Comprehensive Income and recognised in the Group Income Statement when the operation is sold. The principal exchange rates used to translate foreign currency denominated amounts in 2024 are: Balance Sheet: £1 = €1.21 (2023: £1 = €1.15). Income Statement: £1 = €1.18 (2023: £1 = €1.15). Investment properties These properties include completed properties that are generating rent or are available for rent, and development properties that are under development, available for development or income- producing properties acquired with the explicit intention to take back for redevelopment (‘covered land’). Investment properties comprise freehold and leasehold properties and are first measured at cost (including transaction costs), then revalued to market value at each reporting date by professional valuers. Lease liabilities associated with leasehold properties are accounted for under IFRS 16, see the Leases accounting policy. If a valuation obtained for a property held under a lease is net of all payments expected to be made, any related lease liability recognised separately in the Balance Sheet is added back to arrive at the carrying value of the investment property for accounting purposes. Valuation gains and losses in a period are taken to the Income Statement. As the Group uses the fair value model, as per IAS 40 ‘Investment Property’, no depreciation is provided. An asset will be classified as held for sale within investment properties, in line with IFRS 5 ‘Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations’, where the asset is available for immediate sale in its present condition and the sale is highly probable. Investment properties are transferred to trading properties when there is a change in use and the property ceases to meet the definition of investment property. Other interests in property Other interests in property include the cost and related fees in respect of land options, which are initially capitalised and regularly tested for impairment. The impairment review includes consideration of the resale value of the option and likelihood of achieving planning consent. 149 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Notes to the Financial Statements continued Where the ROU asset relates to land or property that meets the definition of investment property under IAS 40, after initial recognition the ROU asset is subsequently accounted for as investment property and carried at fair value (see Investment properties accounting policy). Valuation gains and losses in a period are taken to the Income Statement. The ROU assets are included in the heading Investment properties, and the lease liability in the headings current and non-current trade and other payables on the Balance Sheet. The Group has elected not to recognise ROU assets and liabilities for leases where the total lease term is less than or equal to 12 months, or for low value leases. The payments for such leases are recognised in the Income Statement on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Revenue Revenue includes gross rental income, joint venture management and performance fee income, income from service charges and other recoveries from tenants and proceeds from the sale of trading properties. Rental income Rental income from properties let as operating leases is recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease incentives and initial costs to arrange leases are capitalised, then amortised on a straight-line basis over the lease term (‘rent averaging’). Surrender premiums received in the period are included in rental income. Changes in the scope or the consideration for a lease, that was not part of the original terms and conditions, which might arise as a result of lease concessions, are accounted as a lease modification. Lease modifications are accounted for as a new lease from the effective date of the modification, considering any prepaid or accrued lease payments relating to the original lease as part of the lease payments for the new lease. Concessions granted to tenants after the date the conceded rent fall due are accounted for as an expected credit loss and not as a lease modification, on the basis there is no change to the consideration or scope of the lease. Service charges and other recoveries from tenants These include income in relation to service charges, directly recoverable expenditure and management fees. Revenue from providing services is recognised in the accounting period in which the services are rendered. Revenue from services is recognised based on the actual service provided to the end of the reporting period as a proportion of the total services to be provided and recognised over time. The Group generally acts as the principal in service charge transactions as it directly controls the delivery of the services at the point they are provided to the tenant. Where the Group acts as a principal, service charge income is presented gross within revenue and service charge expense presented gross within costs. Joint venture management and performance fees Joint venture management and performance fees are recognised as income in the period to which they relate. Management fees are recognised in the accounting period in which the services are rendered. Revenue from services is recognised based on the actual service provided to the end of the reporting period as a proportion of the total services to be provided and recognised over time. Performance fees are based on the joint venture’s performance over the performance period and payable subject to meeting certain criteria and hurdle rates at the end of the period (further details are given in Note 7). Performance fees are recognised during and at the end of the performance period to the extent that it is highly probable there will not be a significant future reversal and the fee can be reliably estimated. Sale of trading properties Proceeds from the sale of trading properties are recognised at the point in time at which control of the property has been transferred to the purchaser. Therefore, revenue is recognised at a point in time and generally occurs on completion of the contract. Property, plant and equipment Plant and equipment are stated at historic cost less accumulated depreciation. Cost includes purchase price and any directly attributable costs. Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets (other than investment properties) less their residual values, using the straight-line method, on the following bases: Plant and equipment 20% per annum Solar panels 5% per annum The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis. Property relates to the ROU asset recognised for office leases entered into by the Group. The ROU asset is initially measured based on the present value of lease payments, plus initial direct costs and the cost of obligations to refurbish the asset, less any incentives received. The ROU asset is depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or the useful life of the underlying asset. Financial instruments Borrowings Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value less attributable transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, borrowings are stated at amortised cost with any difference between the amount initially recognised and the redemption value being recognised in the Income Statement over the period of the borrowings, using the effective interest rate method. General and specific borrowing costs that are directly attributable to expenditure on properties under development are capitalised. Expenditure includes the purchase cost of a site if it has been purchased with the specific intention to redevelop. Interest is capitalised from the commencement of the development activity until the date of practical completion. The capitalisation of borrowing costs is suspended if there are prolonged periods when development activity is interrupted. The interest capitalised is calculated using the Group’s weighted average cost of borrowing for the relevant currency, or, if appropriate, the rate on specific associated borrowings. 150 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Notes to the Financial Statements continued Share capital Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. When shares recognised as equity are repurchased, the amount of the consideration paid, which includes directly attributable costs, is recognised as a deduction from equity. Repurchased shares are classified as treasury shares and are presented in the treasury share reserve. When treasury shares are sold or reissued subsequently, the amount received is recognised as an increase in equity and the resulting surplus or deficit on the transaction is presented within share premium. Shares held by Ocorian Limited and Equiniti Limited to satisfy various Group share schemes are disclosed as own shares held and deducted from contributed equity. Income tax Income tax on the profit or loss for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Current tax is the tax payable on the taxable income for the year and any adjustment in respect of previous years. Current tax is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the end of the reporting period in the countries where the Company’s subsidiaries and associates operate and generate taxable income. Deferred tax is provided in full using the Balance Sheet liability method on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is determined using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and are expected to apply when the asset is realised or the liability is settled. No provision is made for temporary differences (i) arising on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities, other than a business combination and leases that affect neither accounting nor taxable profit and (ii) relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that suitable taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty In the application of the Group’s accounting policies, the Directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revisions and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. Derivative financial instruments and hedging activities The Group uses derivatives (principally interest rate swaps, currency swaps, forward foreign exchange contracts, interest floors and interest caps) in managing interest rate risk and foreign currency risk, and does not use them for trading. They are recorded, and subsequently revalued, at fair value, with revaluation gains or losses being immediately taken to the Income Statement (fair value through profit or loss ‘FVPL’). The exception is for derivatives qualifying as hedges, when the treatment of the gain/ loss depends upon the item being hedged, and may go to other comprehensive income within the Statement of Comprehensive Income (fair value through other comprehensive income ‘FVOCI’). Derivatives with a maturity of less than 12 months or that expect to be settled within 12 months of the Balance Sheet date are presented as current assets or liabilities. Other derivatives are presented as non-current assets or liabilities. Hedge accounting is applied to net investments in foreign operations in non-functional currencies using forward foreign exchange derivatives and foreign currency denominated debt. Changes in the fair value on remeasurement of derivatives and exchange differences on foreign currency denominated debt are recorded in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the translation reserve within equity to the extent that the hedges are effective. Any ineffectiveness is recognised in the Income Statement within net finance costs. The cumulative gains and losses remain in equity until the associated hedged item is disposed of, at which point they are reclassified to the income statement. Trade and other receivables and payables Trade and other receivables are booked at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Trade and other payables are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised costs using the effective interest method. The Group applies the IFRS 9 simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses (ECLs) which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade receivables. Note 17(vi) details the Group’s calculation for measuring ECLs. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Share-based payments The cost of granting share options and other share-based remuneration is measured at their fair value at the grant date. The costs are expensed straight-line over the vesting period in the Income Statement, based on estimates of the shares or options that will eventually vest. Charges are reversed if it appears that non-market-based performance conditions will not be met. The fair value excludes the effect of non-market-based vesting conditions. At each Balance Sheet date, the Group revises its estimate of the number of equity instruments expected to vest as a result of the effect of non-market-based vesting conditions. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if any, is recognised in the Income Statement such that the cumulative expense reflects the revised estimate, with a corresponding adjustment to equity within the share- based payment reserve. 151 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Notes to the Financial Statements continued Significant areas of estimation uncertainty Property valuations Valuation of property is a central component of the business. In estimating the fair value, the Group engages third-party qualified valuers to perform the valuation. Information about the valuation techniques and inputs used in determining the fair value of the property portfolio is disclosed in Note 25 Property valuation techniques and related quantitative information. Significant areas of judgements in applying the Group’s accounting policies Accounting for significant property transactions Property transactions are complex in nature. Management considers each material transaction separately, with an assessment carried out to determine the most appropriate accounting treatment and judgements applied. The judgements include whether the transaction represents an asset acquisition or business combination and the cut-off for property transactions on recognition of property assets and revenue recognition. In making its judgement over the cut-off for property transactions, management considers whether the control of ownership of the assets acquired or disposed of has transferred to or from the Group (this consideration includes the revenue recognition criteria set out in IFRS 15 for the sale of trading properties). In making its judgement on whether the acquisition of property through the purchase of a corporate vehicle represents an asset acquisition or business combination, management considers whether the integrated set of assets and activities acquired contain both inputs and processes along with the ability to create outputs. Management also applies the optional ‘concentration test’ allowed under IFRS 3. When applying the optional test, management considers if substantially all of the fair value of gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single asset (or a group of similar assets). Where management judge that substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired are concentrated in a single asset (or a group of similar assets) and the ‘concentration test’ met, the assets acquired would not represent a business and the purchase would be treated as an asset acquisition. There were no property transactions during the current or prior year requiring significant judgement. REIT status The Company has elected for UK REIT and French SIIC status. To continue to benefit from these tax regimes, the Group is required to comply with certain conditions as outlined in Note 10. Management intends that the Group should continue as a UK REIT and a French SIIC for the foreseeable future. Uncertain tax positions The Group is subject to periodic challenges by local tax authorities on a range of tax matters during the normal course of business. The tax impact can be uncertain until a conclusion is reached with the relevant tax authority or through a legal process. Management judgement is required in assessing the likelihood of whether a liability, including any associated penalties, will arise and the significant assessment relating to the recognition of withholding tax in France and is discussed further in Note 10. 2. Adjusted Profit Adjusted profit is a non-GAAP measure and is the Group’s measure of underlying profit, which is used by the Board and senior management to measure and monitor the Group’s income performance. It is based on the Best Practices Recommendations Guidelines of European Public Real Estate Association (EPRA), which calculate profit excluding investment and development property revaluations and gains or losses on disposals. Changes in the fair value of financial instruments and associated close-out costs and their related taxation, as well as other permitted one-off items, are also excluded. Refer to the Supplementary Notes for all EPRA adjustments. The Directors may also exclude from the EPRA earnings measure additional items (gains and losses) which are considered by them to be non-recurring, unusual or significant by virtue of size and nature. In excluding such items going forward, management believe this gives a better measure of the underlying performance of the business. No non-EPRA adjustments to underlying profit were made in the current year. In the year ended 31 December 2023 there were two non-EPRA adjustments and are detailed below. As detailed further in Note 17(vi) an impairment loss of £28 million on a loan due from an associate was recognised in the year ended 31 December 2023. The impairment of the loan is directly related to a wider property transaction entered into by the Group and had arisen due to a fair value deficit on land held by an associate. As the nature of the impairment does not reflect the underlying performance of the business this has been treated as a Company specific adjustment. In the year ended 31 December 2023 the impact of the SELP performance fee of £42 million was excluded from the calculation of Adjusted profit and treated as a Company specific adjustment. No SELP performance fee was recognised in the year ended 31 December 2024 and no adjustment is required for this year. See footnote 3 below and Note 7 (ii) for further details. 152 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Notes to the Financial Statements continued 1 A detailed breakdown of the adjustments to the share of profit from joint ventures and associates is included in Note 7. 2 Net service charge and other expense of £1 million (2023: £1 million income) is calculated as Service charge and other income of £51 million (2023: £45 million) shown in Note 4, less Service charge and other expenses of £52 million (2023: £44 million) shown in Note 5. 3 There was no performance fee recognised in the year ended 31 December 2024. Total impact of the joint venture performance fee from SELP for the year ended 31 December 2023: Performance fee of £89 million within joint venture fee income; cost of £37 million within Share of joint ventures’ and associates adjusted profit after tax (being the share of performance fee cost of £45 million less a tax credit of £8 million) and a tax charge of £10 million recognised in respect of the performance fee income. Overall, the net profit after tax impact was £42 million. See Note 7 for further details.

Segmental Analysis As a result of the organisational structure which has been developed over the last year there has been a change in the Group’s reportable segments. As detailed in the Annual Report for the year ended 31 December 2023, the new organisational structure has consolidated the six regional Business Units into two property businesses, each under a separate Managing Director: United Kingdom (UK) and Continental Europe (CE). In 2024, the two property businesses are now managed, and their operating results reported to the Executive Directors (‘chief operating decision maker’, ‘CODM’) as separate and distinct businesses. Prior to 2024, operating results were reported to the Executive Directors at the Business Unit level. Given the change in the level at which results are reported to the CODM the operating segments under IFRS 8 have changed from the six regional Business Units previously reported to the two property businesses, UK and CE. The comparative period has been represented to reflect the new segments. 31 December 2024 Gross rental income £m Net rental income £m Share of joint ventures and associates’ Adjusted profit £m Adjusted PBIT2 £m Valuation surplus/(deficit) on investment properties £m Total directly owned property assets £m Investments in joint ventures and associates £m Capital expenditure3 £m UK 437 399 – 395 170 11,463 28 562 CE 155 113 111 244 (50) 3,846 2,428 434 Other1 – (12) (28) (101) – – (904)4 24 Total 592 500 83 538 120 15,309 1,552 1,020 31 December 2023 Gross rental income £m Net rental income £m Share of joint ventures and associates’ Adjusted profit £m Adjusted PBIT2 £m Valuation surplus/(deficit) on investment properties £m Total directly owned property assets £m Investments in joint ventures and associates £m Capital expenditure3 £m UK 407 375 – 372 (421) 11,160 20 598 CE 140 102 119 242 (226) 3,757 2,697 366 Other1 – (15) (37) (99) – – (1,081)4 29 Total 547 462 82 515 (647) 14,917 1,636 993 1. ‘Other’ category includes the corporate centre, SELP holding companies and costs relating to the operational business which are not specifically allocated to the two property businesses. 2.

There were £0.1 million of non-audit fees paid in respect of SELP (2023: £0.2 million). The appointment of the SELP auditors and agreement of their fees is a matter for the SELP Board acting independently from SEGRO.

These expenses which are mainly staff related have been reclassified as their functions are more closely aligned with administrative rather than management activities. The prior period comparatives in the table above have been represented to reflect this change and £7 million of expenses reclassified from Other expenses to Property administrative expenses for the year ended 31 December 2023. 3 Property administrative expenses predominantly relate to the employee staff costs of personnel directly involved in operating the property portfolio. 4 Costs capitalised primarily relate to internal employee staff costs directly involved in developing the property portfolio. 5 Other expenses includes expenses relating to the provision of solar energy. 155 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Notes to the Financial Statements continued 6(iii) – Staff costs The table below presents staff costs of the Group (including Directors) which are recognised in both property operating expenses and administrative expenses in the Income Statement. 2024 £m 2023 £m Wages and salaries 55 54 Social security costs 8 7 Pension costs 3 3 Share scheme costs 7 10 Total 73 74 Average number of Group employees 461 459 – Direct property 294 290 – Indirect property and administration 167 169 Disclosures required by the Companies Act 2006 on Directors’ remuneration, including salaries, share options, pension contributions and pension entitlement and those specified by the UK Listing Rules of the Financial Conduct Authority are included on pages 105 to 131 in the Remuneration Report and form part of these Financial Statements.

Service charge income is netted against the equal and opposite service charge expense in calculating Adjusted profit before tax. 2 Property management fees paid to SEGRO. 3 Performance fees recognised by SEGRO. This is further discussed in the Fees section below. 156 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Notes to the Financial Statements continued Fees SEGRO provides certain services, including venture advisory and asset management, to the SELP joint venture and receives fees for doing so. Performance fees may also be payable from SELP to SEGRO based on its IRR subject to certain hurdle rates over the performance period. The current performance period commenced in October 2023 and is over a circa three-year and circa six-year period. The first performance period and potential payment due ends in June 2026, but 50 per cent of any payment is subject to clawback based on performance over the six-year period to June 2029. If the IRR increases by June 2029 relative to June 2026, additional fees might be triggered. Based on the current estimates of the IRR calculation from October 2023 to 31 December 2024, no performance fee is due to SEGRO in June 2026. Therefore no fee has been recognised in the year as the recognition criteria under IFRS 15 has not been met. The performance fee is not considered to be a significant area of estimation uncertainty at this point. In the year ended 31 December 2023, the ten-year performance fee period from inception of SELP in October 2013 to October 2023 ended. As a result, SEGRO recognised a performance fee income of £89 million (€103 million) in its 31 December 2023 Income Statement. An equivalent performance fee expense at share of £45 million was recognised within the share of profit from joint ventures and associates and shown in Note 7(i). 7(iii) – Investments by the Group 2024 £m 2023 £m Cost or valuation at 1 January 1,636 1,768 Exchange movement (81) (30) Net investments1 (27) 12 Dividends received2 (29) (38) Share of profit/(loss) after tax 53 (76) Cost or valuation at 31 December 1,552 1,636 1 Net investments represent the net movement of capital injections, loans and divestments with joint ventures and associates during the year. 2 Dividends received from SELP. The Group has not recognised cumulative losses totalling £nil at share (2023: £14 million) in relation to its interests in associates, because the Group has no obligation in respect of these losses. SELP is a SPPICAV in France, and does not pay tax on its French property income or gains on property sales, provided that at least 85 per cent of the French subsidiaries’ property income is distributed to their immediate shareholder. In addition, SELP has to meet certain conditions such as ensuring the property rental business of each French subsidiary represents more than 60 per cent of its assets. Any potential or proposed changes to the SPPICAV legislation are monitored. 7(ii) – Summarised Balance Sheet information in respect of the Group’s joint ventures and associates SELP £m Other £m At 100% 2024 £m At 100% 2023 £m At share 2024 £m At share 2023 £m Investment properties 4,996 56 5,052 5,830 2,526 2,915 Property, plant and equipment 19 – 19 12 10 6 Other receivables 3 – 3 2 1 1 Total non-current assets 5,018 56 5,074 5,844 2,537 2,922 Other receivables 51 1 52 62 26 31 Cash and cash equivalents 345 1 346 56 173 28 Total current assets 396 2 398 118 199 59 Total assets 5,414 58 5,472 5,962 2,736 2,981 Borrowings1 (1,444) – (1,444) (2,143) (722) (1,072) Deferred tax (359) – (359) (381) (179) (191) Other liabilities2 – – – (34) – (17) Total non-current liabilities (1,803) – (1,803) (2,558) (901) (1,280) Borrowings1 (413) – (413) – (207) – Other liabilities (149) (3) (152) (159) (76) (79) Total current liabilities (562) (3) (565) (159) (283) (79) Total liabilities (2,365) (3) (2,368) (2,717) (1,184) (1,359) Unrecognised share of losses – – – 28 – 14 Net assets 3,049 55 3,104 3,273 1,552 1,636 1 The external borrowings of the joint ventures and associates are non-recourse to the Group.

Loans held with subsidiaries are classified as non-current as there is no intention from the Company to require the loan to be repaid, in whole or in part, within 12 months. Subsidiary entities are detailed in Note 27. In measuring expected credit losses (ECLs) of the intercompany loans under IFRS 9 the ability of each subsidiary to repay the loan at the reporting date if demanded by the Company is assessed. For the purpose of the impairment review the manner for recovering the loan is assumed to be through the sale of the investment properties held by the subsidiary. Investment properties are held at fair value at each reporting date and the assumptions and inputs used in determining their fair value are shown in Note 25. Therefore, the net asset value of the subsidiary is considered to be a reasonable approximation of the available assets that could be realised to recover the loan balance and the requirement to recognise expected credit losses. The requirement for impairment of investments under IAS 36 follows the same assessment and the net asset value of the subsidiary is considered to be a reasonable approximation of the recoverable amount. The increase in the provision for investments and loans held with subsidiaries during the current and prior period is due to a lower expectation of recovery predominantly due to the decrease in the fair value of specific properties held by the subsidiaries. The loss allowances for loans held with subsidiaries as at 31 December reconcile to the opening loss allowances as follows: 2024 £m 2023 £m Opening loss allowance at 1 January 230 122 Increase in loan loss allowance recognised in profit or loss during the year 105 123 Unused amount reversed in profit or loss during the year (25) (15) Closing loss allowance at 31 December 310 230 8.

The differences are: 2024 £m 2023 £m Profit/(loss) on ordinary activities before tax 636 (263) Exclude valuation (surplus)/deficit in respect of UK properties not deductible (170) 421 466 158 Multiplied by standard rate of UK corporation tax of 25 per cent (2023: 23.5 per cent)2 (117) (37) Effects of: REIT & SIIC exemption on income and gains 90 94 Non deductible items (5) (13) Joint venture and associates’ tax adjustment1 12 (17) Higher tax rates on international earnings (1) (3) Adjustment in respect of assets not recognised (21) (14) Total tax (charge)/credit on profit on ordinary activities (42) 10 1 The joint venture and associates’ tax adjustment is required because the profit on ordinary activities before tax includes share of profit from joint ventures and associates’ after tax, whereas the total tax balance excludes joint ventures and associates. 2 The UK corporation tax rate for the financial year beginning 1 April 2023 increased to 25 per cent (previously 19 per cent in the financial year beginning 1 April 2022). 10(iii) – REIT and SIIC regimes and other tax judgements SEGRO is a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) and does not pay tax on its UK property income or gains on property sales, provided that at least 90 per cent of the Group’s UK property income is distributed as a dividend to shareholders, which becomes taxable in their hands. In addition, the Group has to meet certain conditions such as ensuring its worldwide property rental business represents more than 75 per cent of total profits and assets. Any potential or proposed changes to the REIT legislation are monitored and discussed with HMRC. It is management’s intention that the Group will continue as a REIT for the foreseeable future. SEGRO is also a SIIC in France, and does not pay corporation tax on its French property income or gains on property sales, provided that at least 95 per cent of the relevant Group French subsidiaries’ property income is distributed to their immediate shareholder. In addition, the Group has to meet certain conditions such as ensuring the property rental business of each French subsidiary represents more than 80 per cent of its assets. Any potential or proposed changes to the SIIC legislation are monitored. It is management’s intention that the Group will continue as a SIIC for the foreseeable future. In 2021 a formal tax assessment in relation to the applicability of a 25 per cent withholding tax on distributions from the SIIC was received from the French tax authorities and a tax charge was recognised. A legal conclusion has not been reached and communication with the French tax authorities remains ongoing. As a result, a tax charge for the 25 per cent withholding tax on results generated from the French business has been recognised, this includes withholding tax on unremitted earnings. As noted below, until a legal conclusion has been reached, it is possible further tax charges may arise in relation to this matter. Net finance costs (including adjustments) in Adjusted profit (Note 2) are £68 million (2023: £106 million). This excludes net fair value gains and losses on interest rate swaps and other derivatives of £3 million gain (2023: £24 million gain) and the cost of early close out debt of £2 million (2023: £1 million). The interest capitalisation rates for 2024 ranged from 2.6 per cent to 6.7 per cent (2023: 2.6 per cent to 6.5 per cent). Interest is capitalised gross of tax relief. Further analysis of exchange differences is given in Note 17 within the forward foreign exchange and currency swap contracts section. 10.

The tax impact can be uncertain until a conclusion is reached with the relevant tax authority or through a legal process. The Group uses in-house expertise when assessing uncertain tax positions and seeks the advice of external professional advisors where appropriate. The Group believes that its provisions for tax liabilities and associated penalties are adequate for all open tax years based on its assessment of many factors, including tax laws and prior experience. The significant assessment relating to the recognition of withholding tax in France is discussed above. 10(iv) – Deferred tax liabilities Movement in deferred tax was as follows: Group – 2024 Balance 1 January £m Exchange movement £m Recognised in income £m Balance 31 December £m Valuation surpluses and deficits on properties/ accelerated tax allowances 178 (9) 9 178 Others 14 (1) 1 14 Total deferred tax liabilities 192 (10) 10 192 Group – 2023 Balance 1 January £m Exchange movement £m Recognised in income £m Balance 31 December £m Valuation surpluses and deficits on properties/ accelerated tax allowances 209 (3) (28) 178 Others 17 (1) (2) 14 Total deferred tax liabilities 226 (4) (30) 192 The Group has recognised revenue tax losses of £71 million (2023: £94 million) available for offset against future profits (reflected in ‘Valuation surpluses and deficits on properties/accelerated tax allowances’ in the table above). Further unrecognised tax losses of £755 million also exist at 31 December 2024 (2023: £757 million) of which £1 million (2023: £1 million) expires within nine years. The majority of the unrecognised tax loss balance relates to historic capital losses that arose on property disposals and on losses generated from debt close-out costs. The Directors do not consider it probable that there will be sufficient future taxable profit for the relevant losses to be utilised and so no deferred tax asset has been recognised for unused tax losses. For the purposes of measuring deferred tax liabilities or deferred tax assets arising from investment properties that are measured using the fair value model, the Directors have reviewed the Group’s investment property portfolios and concluded that the Group’s investment properties are not held under a business model whose objective is to consume substantially all of the economic benefits embodied in the investment properties over time, rather than through sale. Therefore, in determining the Group’s deferred taxation on investment properties, the Directors have determined that the presumption that the carrying amounts of investment properties measured using the fair value model are recovered entirely through sale is not rebutted. As a result, the Group has recognised deferred taxes on changes in fair value of investment properties for all jurisdictions, with the exception of the UK, where the Group is not subject to any corporate income taxes on the fair value changes of the investment properties on disposal due to its REIT status. 10(v) – Factors that may affect future tax charges Other than France no deferred tax is recognised on the unremitted earnings of international subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates. In the event of their remittance to the UK, no net UK tax is expected to be payable. As detailed in Note 10(iii) a tax charge for probable withholding tax due on results generated from the French business has been recognised, this includes withholding tax on unremitted earnings. 10(vi) – OECD Pillar Two model rules Pillar Two legislation was enacted in the UK during 2023, the jurisdiction in which the Company is incorporated, and was effective from 1 January 2024. Management have engaged tax specialists to assist with applying the legislation and assessing the impact in all relevant jurisdictions. Based on the assessment of this enacted legislation and local enacted qualifying domestic minimum top-up tax rules in effect, management consider there to be no material impact on the Company or the Group due to its UK REIT status, which should result in the majority of the Group companies being excluded from the rules. The Group applies the exception to recognising and disclosing information about deferred tax assets and liabilities related to Pillar Two income taxes, as provided in the amendments to IAS 12 issued in May 2023. 11.

The reduction of the carbon footprint within the Group’s property portfolio is discussed in more detail on pages 38 and 41. Investment properties are stated at fair value as at 31 December 2024 based on external valuations performed by professionally qualified, independent valuers. The Group’s wholly-owned, joint venture and associate property portfolio is valued by CBRE Ltd on a half-yearly basis. The valuations conform to International Valuation Standards and were arrived at by reference to market evidence of the transaction prices paid for similar properties. In estimating the fair value of the properties, the valuers consider the highest and best use of the properties. There has been no change to the valuation technique during the year. CBRE Ltd also undertakes some professional and agency work on behalf of the Group. This is carried out by departments separate from the Valuation team in CBRE and overall the total fees earned from the Group are below 5 per cent of CBRE’s total income. This work does not therefore lead to a conflict of interest for the properties being valued by CBRE at the period end. Completed properties include buildings that are occupied or are available for occupation. Development properties include land available for development (land bank), land under development, construction in progress and covered land. The carrying value of covered land held within Development properties as at 31 December 2024 is £619 million (2023: £645 million). At 31 December 2024 investment properties included £185 million tenant lease incentives, letting fees and rent guarantees (2023: £175 million). The carrying value of investment properties situated on land held under leaseholds is £170 million (excluding head lease ROU assets) (2023: £186 million).

There are no early settlement or call options (greater than three months prior to maturity) on any of the borrowings. Financial covenants relating to £4,607 million of borrowings as at 31 December 2024 include maximum limits to the Group’s gearing ratio, minimum limits to permitted interest cover, minimum limits to the Group’s unencumbered asset ratio and maximum limits to subsidiary or secured borrowings. Depending on the instrument, financial covenants are tested for compliance either annually or semi-annually. The gearing ratio of the Group as at 31 December 2024 as defined within the principal debt funding arrangements was 35 per cent and significantly lower than the Group’s tightest financial gearing covenant within these debt facilities of 160 per cent. The interest cover covenant requires net interest before capitalisation be covered at least 1.25 times by net property rental income and the ratio for 2024 was 3.7 times. Financial covenants are discussed in more detail in the ‘Gearing and financial covenants’ section in the Financial review on page 45 and there are no indications that the Group would have difficulty complying with the covenants. Bank loans and overdrafts include capitalised finance costs on committed facilities. In May 2024, SEGRO cancelled a €100 million bilateral revolving credit facility, which was replaced by the bilateral revolving credit facility entered into in January 2024. Also, in May 2024 SEGRO extended the maturity of one of it’s €100 million bilateral credit facilities, by one year to 2028. In August 2024, SEGRO extended the maturity of €600 million of its revolving credit facilities for a further year to 2027. In September 2024, SEGRO issued a €500 million 3.50% bond due in 2032. In October 2024, SEGRO extended the maturity of £90 million of term loans for a further year to 2027. During the year, SEGRO repaid £725 million in term loans.

The carrying values of these financial assets and liabilities approximate their fair value, with the exception of unsecured bonds and unsecured US private placement notes classified as borrowings. At 31 December 2024, the fair value of £3,051 million of unsecured bonds issued was £2,822 million (2023: £2,709 million compared with £2,480 million fair value). At 31 December 2024, the fair value of £1,339 million of unsecured US private placement notes was £1,285 million (2023: £1,409 million compared with £1,281 million fair value). This results in a fair value adjustment increase in EPRA NDV of £283 million (2023: £357 million), see Table 5 of the Supplementary Notes. The fair value of unsecured bonds is estimated using quoted prices (level 1) and the fair value of US private placement notes is estimated by discounting contractual future cash flows (level 2). 17. Financial Instruments and Fair Values 17(i) Derivative instruments The Group and Company holds the following derivative instruments at fair value: Derivative assets Group Company 2024 £m 2023 £m 2024 £m 2023 £m Current Forward foreign exchange and currency swap contracts – non-hedge – 8 – 8 Interest rate cap contracts – non hedge 1 – 1 – Interest rate floor contracts – non hedge 2 – 2 – Total current derivative assets 3 8 3 8 Non-current Interest rate cap contracts – non-hedge 21 37 21 37 Forward foreign exchange and currency swap contracts – non-hedge 27 10 27 10 Total non-current derivative assets 48 47 48 47 Derivative liabilities Group Company 2024 £m 2023 £m 2024 £m 2023 £m Current Interest rate swap contracts – non-hedge 44 46 44 46 Forward foreign exchange and currency swap contracts – non-hedge – – – 6 Forward foreign exchange and currency swap contracts – hedge – 6 – – Total current derivative liabilities 44 52 44 52 Non-current Interest rates swap contracts – non-hedge 75 97 75 97 Total non-current derivative liabilities 75 97 75 97 165 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Notes to the Financial Statements continued The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are determined as follows: – Forward foreign exchange contracts are measured using quoted exchange rates and yield curves derived from quoted interest rates with maturities matching the contracts (level 2). – Interest rate swaps, currency swap contracts and interest rate options are measured at the present value of future cash flows estimated and discounted based on the applicable yield curves derived from quoted interest rates and the appropriate exchange rate at the Balance Sheet date (level 2). – The fair value of other investments classified as fair value through profit or loss which are not traded on active liquid markets is determined by management (level 3). Fair value measurements recognised in the Balance Sheet The Group’s financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value are unlisted investments, forward exchange and currency swap contracts, interest rate swaps and interest rate options as detailed above. As defined by IFRS 13, unlisted investments are classified as level 3 fair value measurements, where inputs are not based on observable market data. All other financial instruments are classified as level 2 fair value measurements, being those derived from inputs other than quoted prices (included within level 1) that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices). There were no transfers between categories in the current or prior year. 17(iii) Capital risk management The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as a going concern and as such it aims to maintain a prudent mix between debt and equity financing. Our intention for the foreseeable future is to maintain our mid-cycle LTV (including joint ventures and associates at share) at around 30 per cent. This provides the flexibility to take advantage of investment opportunities arising and ensures significant headroom compared to our tightest gearing covenants should property values decline. The current capital structure of the Group consists of a mix of equity and debt. Equity comprises issued capital, reserves and retained earnings as disclosed in the Statement of Changes in Equity and Notes 18 to 19. Debt primarily comprises long-term debt issues, term loans and drawings against short-term committed revolving credit facilities from banks as disclosed in Note 16. The Group is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements. 17(iv) Foreign currency risk management The Group’s transactional foreign exchange exposures mainly arise as a result of treasury financing and hedging activities. These hedging activities are carried out in SEGRO plc on behalf of the Group and the resulting transactional exposures to euro are not routinely hedged. The Group does not have any significant transactional foreign currency exposures resulting from cross-border flows in the operating business. The Group does however have operations in Continental Europe which transact business denominated mostly in euros, hence there is currency exposure caused by translating the local trading performance and local net assets into sterling for each financial period and at each Balance Sheet date. The Group’s approach to managing Balance Sheet translation exposure is described in the Foreign Currency Translation Risk section in the Financial review on page 46. The Group’s Balance Sheet translation exposure to euros (including the impact of derivative financial instruments) is summarised below: 2024 Total £m 2023 Total £m Group Gross currency assets 5,535 6,374 Gross currency liabilities (4,170) (4,718) Net exposure 1,365 1,656 2024 Group gross currency liabilities include €2,226 million (£1,831 million) designated as net investment hedges. 2023 Group gross currency liabilities include €2,226 million (£1,926 million) designated as net investment hedges. The remaining gross currency liabilities of the Group shown in the table above that are not designated as net investment hedges are either held directly in a euro functional currency entity or passed down to such an entity from a sterling functional currency company through inter-company funding arrangements. Foreign currency sensitivity analysis The Group’s main currency exposure is the euro. The sensitivity of the net assets of the Group to a 10 per cent appreciation in the value of sterling against the euro would decrease net assets by £124 million (2023: £151 million). The sensitivity of the Group to a 10 per cent depreciation in the value of sterling against the euro would increase net assets by £152 million (2023: £184 million). The 10 per cent sensitivity rate is used when reporting foreign currency risk internally to management and represents management’s assessment of the reasonably possible change in foreign exchange rates. The sensitivity analysis adjusts the translation of net assets (after taking account of external loans, currency swap contracts and forward foreign exchange contracts) at the period end for a 10 per cent change in the value of sterling against the euro. A 10 per cent appreciation in the value of sterling against the euro would decrease the Group’s profit for the year ended 31 December 2024 by £9 million (2023: decrease in the loss by £22 million). A 10 per cent depreciation in the value of sterling against the euro would increase the Group’s profit for the year ended 31 December 2024 by £10 million (2023: increase in the loss by £27 million). 166 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Notes to the Financial Statements continued Forward foreign exchange contracts The Group designated euro denominated forward foreign exchange contracts as net investment hedges during 2024 and 2023. There was no ineffectiveness to be recorded from net investments in foreign entity hedges in 2024 and 2023 where the hedging instrument was forward foreign exchange contracts. This is because the critical terms of both the net investment in foreign entity and the hedging instrument match, and at each Balance Sheet date both are revalued to the closing spot rate. Any forward points in the foreign exchange contract are taken to the Income Statement.

Forward foreign exchange and currency swap contracts Some of the forward foreign exchange and currency swap contracts held by the Group are designated as net investment hedges of euro denominated subsidiaries, where exchange differences are booked in reserves and recognised in the Income Statement when the operation is sold. The remaining foreign exchange and currency swap contracts are effectively economic cash flow hedges, for example using surplus cash in one currency to provide (typically through intercompany debt funding arrangements with overseas subsidiaries) funds to repay debt, or to fund development expenditure or acquisitions in another currency. These instruments have not been designated as hedges. As a consequence, exchange movements in respect of these instruments are taken through the Income Statement. Offsetting these movements are net exchange losses of £14 million (2023: £7 million loss) arising on intercompany debt funding arrangements (discussed above) and exchange movements arising from external borrowings not designated as hedges. This has resulted in exchange differences of £1 million gain (2023: £nil) within net finance costs in Note 9. The Group seeks to limit its exposure to volatility in foreign exchange rates by hedging its foreign gross assets using either borrowings or derivative instruments. The Group targets a hedging range of between the last reported LTV ratio (28 per cent at 31 December 2024) and 100 per cent. At 31 December 2024, the Group had gross foreign currency assets, which were 75 per cent hedged by gross foreign currency denominated liabilities (2023: 74 per cent). Further details are provided within the Foreign Currency Translation Risk section of the Financial review on page 46. The following table details the forward foreign exchange and currency swap contracts outstanding as at the year end: Average exchange rates Currency contract (local currency) Contract value Fair value 2024 2023 2024 m 2023 m 2024 £m 2023 £m 2024 £m 2023 £m Group Economic cash flow hedges Sell euros (buy sterling) 1.15 1.13 545 458 474 404 27 10 Buy euros (sell sterling) 1.20 1.16 3 964 3 831 – 8 Net investment hedges Sell euros (buy sterling) 1.21 1.16 101 601 84 517 – (6) Total 27 12 Effects of net investment hedge accounting on financial position and performance The effects of the foreign currency related hedging instruments on the Group’s financial position and performance are detailed below. 167 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Notes to the Financial Statements continued 17(v) Interest rate risk management The Group is exposed to interest rate risk as entities in the Group borrow funds at both fixed and floating interest rates and invests cash at floating interest rates. The risk is managed by maintaining an appropriate mix between fixed and floating rates. The current Group policy states that 50 to 100 per cent of net borrowings should be at fixed rate provided by long-term debt issues attracting a fixed coupon or from floating rate bank borrowings converted into fixed rate or hedged via interest rate swaps, forwards, caps, collars or floors or options on these products. Hedging activities require approval and are evaluated and reported on regularly to ensure that the policy is being adhered to. The Board reviews the policy on interest rate exposure annually with a view to establishing that it is still relevant in the prevailing and forecast economic environment. Interest rate sensitivity analysis The sensitivity analysis below has been determined based on the exposure to interest rates for both derivative and non-derivative instruments at the Balance Sheet date. For floating rate liabilities, the analysis is prepared assuming that the amount of liability outstanding at the Balance Sheet date was outstanding for the whole year. A 2 per cent increase or decrease is used when reporting interest rate risk internally to key management personnel and represents management’s assessment of the reasonable possible change in interest rates. If interest rates had been 2 per cent higher and all other variables were held constant, the Group’s profit for the year ended 31 December 2024 would increase by £10 million (2023: £10 million increase in loss for the year). If interest rates had been 2 per cent lower and all other variables were held constant, the Group’s profit for the year ended 31 December 2024 would increase by £8 million (2023: £17 million decrease in loss for the year). The interest rate sensitivity described results in a higher profit in 2024 for both an interest rate rise and an interest rate fall. This is because the Group currently has both interest rate caps hedging floating rate debt interest costs, and interest rate floors hedging floating rate cash interest income. Fixed rate debt issues are held at amortised cost and are not revalued in the Balance Sheet to reflect interest rate movements. Interest rate swap contracts Under interest rate swap contracts, the Group agrees to exchange the difference between fixed and floating rate interest amounts calculated on agreed notional principal amounts. Such contracts enable the Group to manage the interest rate risk of the Group’s borrowings. The fair value of interest rate swaps at the reporting date is determined by discounting the future cash flows using the yield curves at the reporting date and the credit risk inherent in the contract, and is disclosed below. The average interest rate is based on the outstanding balances at the end of the financial year. The following tables detail the notional principal amounts and remaining terms of interest rate swap contracts, based on their contractual maturities (excluding mandatory break clauses), outstanding as at the reporting date: Average contract– fixed interest rate Notional principal amount Fair value 2024 % 2023 % 2024 £m 2023 £m 2024 £m 2023 £m Pay fixed, receive floating contracts: Group In one year or less 2.80 – 41 – – – In more than one year but less than two – 2.80 – 43 – – In more than two years but less than five 3.92 3.92 100 100 – (1) In more than five years – – – – – – Total 141 143 – (1) Receive fixed, pay floating contracts: Group In one year or less – – – – – – In more than one year but less than two – – – – – – In more than two years but less than five 1.82 1.82 83 87 (4) (6) In more than five years 1.86 1.86 537 565 (115) (136) Total 620 652 (119) (142) The above are effective economic hedges although the Group has not elected to adopt hedge accounting for them, hence their change in fair value is taken direct to the Income Statement. The interest rate swaps settle on either a three-month or six-month basis with the floating rate side based on the EURIBOR or sterling SONIA rate for the relevant period. The Group will settle or receive the difference between the fixed and floating interest rate on a net basis. Interest rate cap contracts The Group agrees to receive floating rate interest amounts calculated on agreed notional principal amounts, should prevailing market rates rise above a specified strike rate using interest rate caps. Such contracts enable the Group to manage the interest rate risk of the Group’s floating rate borrowings. The fair value of interest rate caps at the reporting date is determined by discounting the future cash flows using the yield curves at the reporting date and the credit risk inherent in the contract and is disclosed below. The average interest rate is based on the outstanding balances at the end of the financial year. 168 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Notes to the Financial Statements continued The above are effective economic hedges although the Group has not elected to adopt hedge accounting for them, hence their change in fair value is taken direct to the Income Statement. The interest rate floors settle on a three-month basis based on the compounded SONIA rate for the relevant period. The Group will receive the difference between the floating rate and the specified strike rate. 17(vi) Credit risk management Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group. Potential customers are evaluated for creditworthiness and where necessary collateral is secured. There is no concentration of credit risk within the lease portfolio to either business sector or individual company as the Group has a diverse customer base with no one customer accounting for more than 6 per cent of rental income. Trade receivables were less than 1 per cent of total assets at 31 December 2024 and at 31 December 2023. The ageing of the Group’s trade receivables and the carrying amount net of loss allowances is set out below. 2024 2023 Gross amount £m Loss allowance £m Net carrying amount £m Gross amount £m Loss allowance £m Net carrying amount £m Group 0–30 days 6 (2) 4 7 (1) 6 30–60 days 3 (1) 2 1 – 1 60–90 days – – – 1 – 1 90–180 days 2 (1) 1 5 (3) 2 >180 days 5 (4) 1 4 (3) 1 Past due 16 (8) 8 18 (7) 11 Not due 58 (1) 57 55 (3) 52 Total trade receivables 74 (9) 65 73 (10) 63 Gross trade receivables mainly consists of amounts invoiced for rent, service charge and management fees, which form part of Revenue (see Note 4) and are inclusive of VAT. Trade receivables at 31 December 2024 includes amounts due for 2024 rent and amounts billed in advance for 2025 rent. Both amounts have been considered in measuring expected credit losses (ECLs) detailed further below. The amounts billed in advance for 2025 rent are included within the ‘Not due’ category in the table above. Total gross trade receivables ‘past due’ at 31 December 2024 were £16 million (2023: £18 million), 3 per cent of total gross rental income for the year (2023: 3 per cent). Trade receivables are presented in the Balance Sheet net of loss allowances. The Group applies the IFRS 9 simplified approach to measuring expected credit losses (ECLs) which uses a lifetime expected loss allowance for all trade receivables. Expected loss rates are based on the historic credit loss experienced and adjusted for current and forward information affecting the ability of the individual customers to settle receivables. Trade receivables are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. The following tables detail the notional principal amounts and remaining terms of interest rate cap contracts, based on their contractual maturities, outstanding as at the reporting date: Average strike price Notional amount Fair value 2024 % 2023 % 2024 £m 2023 £m 2024 £m 2023 £m Group In one year or less 2.64 3.73 477 202 1 – In more than one year but less than two1 2.32 2.91 248 300 1 3 In more than two years but less than five2 1.77 2.57 686 215 20 4 In more than five years – 1.50 – 435 – 30 Total 1,411 1,152 22 37 1 Includes forward starting interest rate caps, with a notional amount totalling €150 million, 2.07% average strike, and £0.3 million fair value. 2 Includes forward starting interest rate caps, with a notional amount totalling €232 million, 2.00% average strike, and £1.8 million fair value. The above are effective economic hedges although the Group has not elected to adopt hedge accounting for them, hence their change in fair value is taken direct to the Income Statement. The interest rate caps settle on a three-month basis based on the EURIBOR rate for the relevant period. The Group will receive the difference between the floating rate and the specified strike rate. Interest rate floor contracts The Group agrees to receive floating rate interest amounts calculated on agreed notional principal amounts, should prevailing market rates fall below a specified strike rate using interest rate floor contracts. Such contracts enable the Group to manage the interest rate risk of the Group’s cash balances which are invested in funds generating a floating rate of interest. The fair value of interest rate floors at the reporting date is determined by discounting the future cash flows using the yield curves at the reporting date and the credit risk inherent in the contract and is disclosed below. The average interest rate is based on the outstanding balances at the end of the financial year. The following tables detail the notional principal amounts and remaining terms of interest rate floor contracts, based on their contractual maturities, outstanding as at the reporting date: Average strike price Notional principal amount Fair value 2024 % 2023 % 2024 £m 2023 £m 2024 £m 2023 £m Group In one year or less 4.69 – 900 – 2 – In more than one year but less than two – – – – – – In more than two years but less than five – – – – – – In more than five years – – – – – – Total 900 – 2 – 169 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Notes to the Financial Statements continued In determining the ECLs an analysis of various factors has been performed on a customer by customer basis and considers the impact of economic conditions. These factors include an assessment of the customer’s default risk based on: industry and geographic location; and payment record, which includes how many days past due the receivable is, payment plans granted and credit rating. ECLs are recognised net of securities held for the customer. As at 31 December 2024, the Group held a loss allowance provision for trade receivables of £9 million (2023: £10 million) and the impairment risk remains low with the loss allowance of £9 million representing 2 per cent of total gross rental income for the year (2023: 2 per cent). Total impairment losses on trade receivables of £1 million were recognised in the Income Statement for the year ended 31 December 2024 (2023: £3 million). The impairment losses on trade receivables include the net impact from loss allowances, receivables written off and recoveries of receivables previously written off and are presented within operating profit (see Note 5). The Group held a gross loan due from an associate of £34 million as at 31 December 2023 which was impaired by £28 million to a carrying value of £6 million as at 31 December 2023. During 2024, the associate was acquired by the Group and is a 100 per cent subsidiary as at 31 December 2024 and no impairment has been recognised in the 31 December 2024 Group Income Statement. As set out in Note 2, the impairment of the loan in 2023 was directly related to a wider property transaction entered into by the Group and arose due to a fair value deficit on land held by an associate. As the size and nature of the impairment does not reflect the underlying performance of the business this has been treated as a Company specific adjustment. When considered together the overall transaction has had an accretive impact on net assets since inception. The other financial assets and lease incentive balances held by the Group have been considered for impairment based on historical default rates over the expected life and are adjusted for forward- looking information. Based on that analysis, no material loss allowances are held against these assets in the current and prior period. Investment in financial instruments is restricted to banks and short-term liquidity funds with a good credit rating. Derivative financial instruments are transacted via International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA) agreements with counterparties with a an A- (or equivalent) credit rating. Cash and cash equivalents were placed with financial institutions with a minimum credit rating of A- (or equivalent). The Group’s exposure and the credit ratings of its counterparties are continuously monitored and the aggregate value of transactions concluded is spread among approved counterparties. 17(vii) Liquidity risk management Ultimate responsibility for liquidity risk management rests with the Board, which has built an appropriate liquidity risk management framework for the management of the Group’s short, medium and long-term funding and liquidity management requirements. The Group manages liquidity risk by requiring that adequate cash and committed bank facilities are available to cover and match all debt maturities, development spend, trade related and corporate cash flows over a rolling 18-month period. This is achieved by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. Liquidity risk management is discussed in more detail in the Financial review on pages 45 and 46. Liquidity and interest risk tables The following tables detail the Group’s remaining contractual maturity profile for its financial instruments. The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Group can be required to pay.

The Company raised £907 million, before £18 million expenses resulting in cash proceeds of £889 million. Consequently, the Company’s share capital increased by £11 million and share premium by £878 million. Share-based payments The Group operates the share-based payments schemes set out below. 18(i) – Deferred Share Bonus Plan (DSBP) The DSBP is for Executive Directors and senior managers. A percentage of any payment made under the Bonus Scheme is deferred to shares and held in trust for three years. The percentage subject to deferral for Executive Directors is 50 per cent of the Bonus payment. This scheme is detailed in the Remuneration Report on page 124. If a participant ceases to be employed by the Group, the award will lapse unless the participant is deemed to be a ‘good leaver’, in which case the award will be released on the vesting date. 2024 number 2023 number At 1 January 1,187,381 1,034,807 Shares granted DSBP 332,487 479,754 Shares vested (187,792) (327,180) Shares expired/lapsed (92,722) – At 31 December 1,239,354 1,187,381 The 2023 DSBP grant was made on 26 April 2024, based on a 25 April 2024 closing mid-market share price of 843.4 pence. 18(ii) – Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) The LTIP is a discretionary employee share scheme for Executive Directors and senior managers. Vesting of awards is subject to three-year performance conditions and is at the discretion of the Remuneration Committee. The performance conditions of the LTIP are detailed in the Remuneration Report on page 125. If a participant ceases to be employed by the Group, the award will lapse, unless the participant is deemed to be a ‘good leaver’, in which case the award will be reduced pro-rata on length of employment in relation to the award date. For Executive Directors a compulsory two-year post-vesting holding period follows the three-year performance period. 2024 number 2023 number At 1 January 4,668,321 3,986,588 Shares granted LTIP 1,476,521 1,639,625 Shares vested (1,019,115) (745,044) Shares expired/lapsed (478,401) (212,848) At 31 December 4,647,326 4,668,321 The 2024 LTIP award was made on 22 March 2024. The calculation of the award was based on a share price of 889.2 pence, the closing mid-market share price on 21 March 2024. No consideration was paid for the grant of any award. The Black-Scholes model has been used to fair value the shares granted currently under award, apart from the TSR elements of the award which uses the Monte Carlo model.

Capital redemption reserve The capital redemption reserve of £114 million arose in 2009 where shares were reclassified, cancelled and consolidated in connection with a rights issue. Own shares held reserve The own shares held reserve represent the cost of shares in SEGRO plc bought in the open market and held by Ocorian Limited and Equiniti Limited, to satisfy various Group share schemes. Other reserves Other reserves shown on the Group Balance Sheet of £124 million (2023: £204 million) is made up of the following reserves: The merger reserve of £169 million (2023: £169 million) arose in 2009 in connection with the acquisition of Brixton plc where the Group acquired 100 per cent of the voting equity of Brixton plc in a share for share exchange. The Group translation, hedging and other reserves of £70 million deficit (2023: £7 million surplus) comprises all foreign exchange differences arising from the translation of the Financial Statements of foreign operations, as well as from the translation of liabilities that hedge the Group’s net investment in foreign denominated subsidiaries. The Group share-based payment reserve of £25 million (2023: £28 million) reflects the increase in equity in connection with share-based payment transactions accounted for under IFRS 2. 20. Commitments Contractual obligations to purchase, construct, develop, repair, maintain or enhance assets are as follows: Group 2024 £m 2023 £m Properties1 210 236 1 As detailed on page 38 of the Strategic Report, the Group (including joint ventures and associates at share) is expected to invest approximately £500 million in development capex during 2025. This amount includes committed and uncommitted capex. In addition, commitments in the Group’s joint ventures and associates at 31 December 2024 (at share) amounted to £2 million (2023: £19 million). The Group also has a £4 million commitment to property related investment funds at 31 December 2024 (2023: £6 million). 21. Contingent Liabilities The Group has given performance guarantees to third parties amounting to £46 million (2023: £54 million) in respect of development contracts of subsidiary undertakings. It is unlikely that these contingencies will crystallise. The Company has guaranteed loans, bank overdrafts and euro bonds of subsidiary undertakings and has indicated its intention to provide the necessary support required by its subsidiaries. The Group and joint ventures are subject to claims and litigation generally and provides guarantees, representations and warranties arising in the ordinary course of its business. Provision is made when liabilities are considered likely to arise and the expected quantum of the exposure is able to be estimated. The risk in relation to such items are monitored on an ongoing basis and provisions amended accordingly. It is not expected that contingent liabilities existing at 31 December 2024 will have a material adverse effect on the Group’s financial position. 22. Leases The Group as a lessor The investment properties are leased to tenants under operating leases with rentals payable on a monthly or quarterly basis. Lease payments for some contracts include inflationary index increases, but there are no significant levels of variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate. Where considered necessary to reduce credit risk, the Group may obtain bank guarantees or tenant deposits for the term of the lease. The Group is exposed to changes in the residual value of properties at the end of current lease agreements. The residual value risk borne by the Group is mitigated by active management of its property portfolio and discussed further in the Asset Management update on pages 40 to 41. The Group does not hold significant finance leases as a lessor. Future aggregate minimum rentals receivable under non-cancellable operating leases are: Group £m Joint ventures and associates at share £m 2024 £m 2023 £m Not later than one year 499 114 613 606 Later than one year, not later than two years 447 103 550 523 Later than two years, not later than three years 397 91 488 453 Later than three years, not later than four years 346 74 420 399 Later than four years, not later than five years 297 58 355 345 Later than five years 1,911 179 2,090 2,297 Balance at 31 December 3,897 619 4,516 4,623 There are no significant levels of contingent rent in the current or prior year. 172 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Notes to the Financial Statements continued 24.

Total proceeds (and total cash proceeds) received by SEGRO was £18 million. The transaction resulted in the net assets of the Group increasing by £nil. The net cash impact on a proportionally consolidated basis was an inflow of £9 million once the 50 per cent ownership in SELP is taken into account. No assets were sold to SELP during 2024. Amounts due from joint ventures and associates are disclosed in Note 14. Investments in joint ventures and associates at 31 December 2024 of £1,552 million disclosed in Note 7 (2023: £1,636 million) includes shareholder loans of £84 million (2023: £89 million). Outstanding loans and amounts due are generally charged interest at market rates and are unsecured. Loans held with joint ventures and associates are either cash settled or converted into share capital.

Property Valuation Techniques, Sustainability and Climate Change Considerations and Related Quantitative Information All of the Group’s properties are level 3, as defined by IFRS 13, in the fair value hierarchy as at 31 December 2024 and there were no transfers between levels during the year. Level 3 inputs used in valuing the properties are those which are unobservable, as opposed to level 1 (inputs from quoted prices) and level 2 (observable inputs either directly, i.e. as prices, or indirectly, i.e. derived from prices). Valuation techniques Based on different approaches for different properties, the following valuation techniques can be used for the same class of assets: The yield methodology valuation technique is used when valuing the Group’s assets which uses market rental values capitalised with a market capitalisation rate. The resulting valuations are cross- checked against the initial yields and the fair market values per square metre derived from actual market transactions for similar assets. 174 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Notes to the Financial Statements continued Sensitivity analysis An increase/decrease to ERV will increase/decrease valuations, while an increase/decrease to yield will decrease/increase valuations. Sensitivity analysis showing the impact on valuations of changes in yields and ERV on the property portfolio (including joint ventures and associates at share) and the impact on valuations of changes in development costs on the development property and land portfolio (including joint ventures and associates at share) is shown below. Management still considers a +/- 25bp change in yield, a +/- 5 per cent change in ERV and a +/- 10 per cent change in development costs to be reasonably possible changes to the assumptions. Group £m Impact on valuation of 25bp change in equivalent yield Impact on valuation of 5% change in estimated rental value (ERV) Impact on valuation of 10% change in estimated development costs Increase £m Decrease £m Increase £m Decrease £m Increase £m Decrease £m 2024 Completed property 15,453 (734) 807 576 (571) – – Development property and land 2,317 (190) 203 287 (287) (351) 351 Group total property portfolio 17,770 (924) 1,010 863 (858) (351) 351 Group £m Impact on valuation of 25bp change in equivalent yield Impact on valuation of 5% change in estimated rental value (ERV) Impact on valuation of 10% change in estimated development costs Increase £m Decrease £m Increase £m Decrease £m Increase £m Decrease £m 2023 Completed property 15,255 (742) 819 570 (563) – – Development property and land 2,507 (210) 225 310 (310) (385) 385 Group total property portfolio 17,762 (952) 1,044 880 (873) (385) 385 There are inter-relationships between all these inputs as they are determined by market conditions. The existence of an increase in more than one input would be to magnify the impact on the valuation. The impact on the valuation will be mitigated by the inter-relationship of two inputs in opposite directions, for example, an increase in rent may be offset by an increase in yield. The yield sensitivity is based on the equivalent yield which closely aligns with the net true equivalent yield inputs shown in the tables below. The tables below includes the Group’s wholly-owned and joint venture and associate assets at share in order to include the entire portfolio. The equivalent analysis for the range of inputs on a wholly-owned basis would not be significantly different. For properties under construction and the majority of land held for development, properties are valued using a residual method valuation. Under this methodology, the valuer assesses the investment value (using the above mentioned methodology for completed buildings). Deductions are then made for the total estimated costs to complete, including notional finance costs and developer’s profit, to take into account the hypothetical purchaser’s management of the remaining development process and their perception of risk with regard to construction and the property market (e.g. as regards potential cost overruns and letting risk). Land values are cross-checked against the rate per hectare derived from actual market transactions. Other land is also valued on this comparative basis. Land values per hectare range from £0.1 million – £41.5 million (2023: £0.1 million – £41.5 million) for the UK and £0.1 million – £11.4 million (2023: £0.1 million – £12.7 million) for Continental Europe. Sustainability valuation considerations The Group’s valuers, CBRE, note in their valuation report that the impact of sustainability factors on valuations have been considered. In a valuation context, ‘sustainability’ encompasses a wide range of physical, social, environmental, and economic factors that can affect value of an asset, even if not explicitly recognised. The valuers consider the following areas to have the most potential to impact on the value of an asset: Energy Performance; Green Certification; Sources of Fuel and Renewable Energy Sources and Physical Risk/Climate Risk. The valuers have considered in particular the EPC ratings and the appropriate capital expenditure which will be required to obtain the necessary EPC rating to attract and maintain the tenants required in the future. The valuers are also aware of the impact of flood risk and have noted the impact this has had on potential purchasers. Climate risk legislation The UK Government and the EU is currently producing legislation on the transition to net-zero. The UK Government is currently producing legislation which enforces the transition to net-zero by 2050, and the stated 78 per cent reduction of greenhouse gases by 2035. This is understood to include an update to the Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards, stated to increase the minimum requirements for non-domestic properties from an E to a B in 2030. The UK Government also intends to introduce an operational rating. It is not yet clear how this will be legislated, but fossil fuels used in buildings, such as natural gas for heating, are incompatible with the UK’s commitment to be net-zero carbon by 2050. This upcoming legislation could have a potential impact to future asset value. The introduction of mandatory climate-related disclosures in the UK and EU (including ‘Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures’ (TCFD) in the UK and ‘Sustainable Finance Disclosure Regulations’ (SFDR) and ‘Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive’ (CSRD) in the EU), including the assessment of physical and transition climate risks, may potentially have an impact on how the market views such risks and incorporates them into the sale and letting of assets. Sustainability and climate risk legislation has an impact on the value of an asset, even if not explicitly recognised.

The EPRA Net Tangible Assets (NTA) metric is considered to be most consistent with the nature of SEGRO’s business as a UK REIT providing long-term progressive and sustainable returns. EPRA NTA acts as the primary measure of net asset value and is also referred to as Adjusted Net Asset Value (or Adjusted NAV).

UK shareholders need take no immediate action (unless they qualify for exemption as described below) and will receive with each dividend payment a tax deduction certificate stating the amount of tax deducted. UK shareholders who fall into one of the classes of shareholder able to claim an exemption from withholding tax may be able to receive a gross PID payment if they have submitted a valid relevant Exemption Declaration form, either as a beneficial owner of the shares, or as an intermediary if the shares are not registered in the name of the beneficial owner, to Equiniti. Both Exemption Declaration forms are available at www.SEGRO.com under Investors/Shareholder Information/REIT. A valid declaration form, once submitted, will continue to apply to future payments of PIDs until rescinded, and so it is a shareholder’s responsibility to notify SEGRO if their circumstances change and they are no longer able to claim an exemption from withholding tax. Shareholders resident outside the UK may be able to claim a full or partial refund of withholding tax (either as an individual or as a company) from HMRC, subject to the terms of a double tax treaty, if any, between the UK and the country in which the shareholder is resident. Ordinary dividends Ordinary, non-PID dividends will be treated in exactly the same way by shareholders as ordinary dividends paid before the Company became a REIT. From 6 April 2016 the notional 10 per cent tax credit has been abolished and replaced with a tax-free dividend allowance, which will apply to the ordinary, non-PID dividends received by UK resident shareholders who are subject to UK income tax. This allowance does not apply to the PID element of dividends. Further information is available from HMRC at https://www.gov.uk/tax-on-dividends. Chequeless dividends Since January 2021, SEGRO has withdrawn the option for shareholders to receive payments by cheque. For more information on how to receive dividends directly into your bank or building society account, please visit www.SEGRO.com/investors/shareholder-information/shareholder-faq. Scrip Dividend Shareholders renewed the Directors’ authority to offer a scrip dividend option (Scrip) in respect of cash dividends (including those treated as PIDs) at the 2024 AGM. This authority runs for three years ending on the earlier of 17 April 2027 and the 2027 AGM. Subject to the Board deciding to offer a Scrip, it allows shareholders who elect to receive it, to take their final and interim dividends in shares rather than cash. Details of the Scrip, together with information on how shareholders can elect to receive it are available on the Company’s website www.SEGRO.com. The Board has decided not to offer a Scrip alternative in respect of the 2024 Final Dividend.

Dividends A requirement of the REIT regime is that a REIT must distribute to shareholders by way of dividend at least 90 per cent of its profits from its tax-exempt UK property rental business (calculated under UK tax principles after the deduction of interest and capital allowances and excluding chargeable gains). Such distributions are referred to as Property Income Distributions, or PIDs. Any further distributions may be paid as ordinary dividends, which are derived from profits earned by its UK, non-REIT taxable business, as well as its overseas operations (including the SIIC in France and SOCIMI in Spain). 193 | SEGRO plc Annual Report & Accounts 2024 Overview Strategic Report Governance Financial Statements Further Information Glossary of terms Associates: An entity in which the Group has significant influence but not control or joint control.
