Declares an interim dividend of 2.35 cents per share, unchanged from a year prior. Says will continue to review the portfolio of assets to "ascertain the potential for disposals of buildings that are deemed to be non-core".
Chair Robert Hingley says: "The first six months of the financial year were characterised by significant market disruption caused by the combined effects of global inflationary pressures, rising interest rates and the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. Against this backdrop, it is pleasing that the Portfolio was able to deliver further valuation gains during the first half of the financial year."
