NAV movement

The movement in NAV between 30 September 2022 and 31 December 2022 (the "Period") is as follows:

*Note: In accordance with the EPRA Best Practice Recommendations, EPRA NTA reflects the amortised cost of indebtedness, rather than its fair value, and thus the EPRA NTA movement reflects the indexation of USS debt.

Ben Fry, Managing Director, Housing at Gresham House, commented:

"We're pleased by ReSI's operational performance this quarter, with strong rental growth, continued high occupancy and good demand for new homes. As with many other REITs and investment companies, the difficult UK macro environment in the last three months of 2022 drove a spike in gilt yields, which has directly impacted our valuations as at the end of December.

"Valuations of course remain sensitive to moves in gilt yields, but we see downward pressure on valuations starting to ease, while inflationary pressures are hopefully nearing their peak. Mortgage rates remain well below our portfolio stress-test levels, and with rents rising less than mortgage costs, the shared ownership model helps insulate residents from cost of living pressures. Our retirement residents typically fund rent payments with inflation-linked pension income. Across the whole portfolio our continued efforts to improve our homes' energy efficiency is helping to keep residents' energy bills in check.

"The quality of ReSI's operational business model, with individual tenant contractual relationships, rent collection stable at almost 100%, and very high levels of occupancy, ensures that our focus can remain on delivering dividend cover and underlying performance for investors."
