21 November 2018:  Aberdeen Standard European Logistics Income PLC (LSE: ASLI) (the "Company") announces its unaudited quarterly Net Asset Value ("NAV") as at 30 September 2018.

 

Highlights

 

· NAV per share of €1.09 as at 30 September 2018 (30 June 2018 - €1.11) (GBP - 97.3p, 30 June 2018 GBP - 98.3p)

 

· First interim dividend of 0.7p per Ordinary share paid to shareholders on 28 September 2018.

· During and post the period end, seven assets have been acquired or committed to:

o An income producing freehold logistics warehouse in Ede in the Netherlands for a net value of €26.5 million. A fully CPI-indexed lease has been signed with Dutch retail and pharmacy operator Kruidvat (part of the A S Watson Group) which commenced on 1 August 2018 for a period of 10 years (with no break option). A large part of the warehouse will be used to expand the company's growing e-commerce business. The estimated net initial yield on the property is 5.9%.

o A newly built partly cooled logistic warehouse near Avignon, for a net value of €44.5 million. This income producing asset has been fully let to Biocoop, a French supermarket operator, with a 12 year lease. Net initial yield 5.0% reflecting agreed passing rent which will be subject to annual indexation.

o A new development in a modern logistics hub located in Erlensee, Frankfurt for an expected net value of €33.4 million from regional developer Ferdinand Fäth. Net initial yield is 4.8% reflecting forecast passing rent and annual indexation. The target date for completion is end November 2018.

o Agreement signed for a new development in Oss, the Netherlands, for a purchase price of €15.7 million, with developer Heembouw Breda B.V. reflecting a net initial yield of 5.3%. The Development is structured as a forward funding deal with a 5.5% coupon rate and an expected delivery mid-2019. Orangeworks Group B.V. has agreed a 15 year lease with full CPI indexation.

o Contracts exchanged to acquire a newly built warehouse in Zeewolde, the Netherlands, for a purchase price of €29.25 million reflecting a net initial yield of 5.0%. Work commenced with developer Borghese on this high quality asset pre-let to VSH Fittings B.V. on a 15 year lease term. The development is structured as a forward funding deal with a 2.55% coupon rate and an expected delivery by mid-2019.

o Sale and leaseback agreement signed to acquire an existing cross-dock warehouse in Waddinxveen, the Netherlands, for €33.0 million with a net initial yield of 5.0%. The existing freehold property is leased to Combilo International B.V. on a 15 year triple net lease with capped CPI indexation of 2.5% per annum.

· Continued strong demand for the Company's shares. As at 20 November 2018 the share price was GBP 103.5p representing a premium to the 30 September 2018 NAV of €1.09 (97.3p) of 6.4%.

 

Investment Manager Commentary

 

With the recently announced acquisitions in the Netherlands we have now invested in or committed to invest the net equity proceeds raised at the launch of the Company in December 2017. This deployment of capital will see a quality portfolio consisting of 8 properties spread over 4 countries, of which 5 are brand-new high quality assets. We are confident that we can generate a solid and sustainable income stream from our portfolio. We are seeing very strong demand in the market for modern, best-in-class logistics facilities.

 

We continue to see a strong pipeline of investment opportunities with assets in advanced stages of due diligence meaning that we will very soon deploy significant gearing as these come on-stream. Further announcements are expected shortly. Despite the continued tightening of logistics yields in many countries and increasing investor demand in the European logistics space, we continue to build a really well-diversified portfolio of very high quality European logistics properties.
