"We have deliberately fostered our resilience by carefully selecting tenants, putting in place leases with robust rent cover and inflation linkages and maintaining a prudent balance sheet. Our tenants have provided high-quality care during the pandemic and in turn we have received 100% of the rent due. This has underpinned a fully covered dividend for 2021. As we emerge from the pandemic, the long-term investment case for care homes is unchanged. Occupancy is expected to continue to recover while the support from government grant funding falls away," says Chair Rupert Barclay.
Current stock price: 117.00 pence
12-month change: up 4.3%
