·; The revaluation of the investment property portfolio at the year end has resulted in a net valuation surplus for the year of £83,928,000 (2018 - £146,438,000).

 

·; Rental and related income from investment property has increased in the year by 9.3% (2018 - 1.5%) The increase has principally been driven in the UK by the completion of the Travelodge hotel and other developments. In the USA the main factor has been the acquisition of three new residential properties at a total cost of $98 million.

 

·; The Board has recommended a final dividend of 71p per share in respect of the year ended 31 March 2019 payable on 1 November 2019 to shareholders on the register on 4 October 2019. This will make a total dividend for the year of 106p (2018 - 103p).

 

·; Earnings per share is calculated by reference to profit on ordinary activities after taxation attributable to equity holders of the parent of £119,893,000 (2018 - £202,889,000) and 16,295,357 (2018 - 16,295,357) ordinary shares being the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year. Equity shareholders' funds per share is calculated by reference to total equity attributable to equity holders of the parent of £1,940,354,000 (2018 - £1,812,902,000) and the ordinary shares detailed above.

Notes

1. The financial information set out in this Preliminary Announcement does not constitute the Company's statutory accounts for the years ended 31 March 2019 or 2018. The financial information for 2018 is derived from the statutory accounts for 2018 which have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The Auditors have reported on the 2018 accounts; their report was (i) unqualified, (ii) did not include a reference to any matters to which the auditors drew attention by way of emphasis without qualifying their report and (iii) did not contain a statement under Section 498(2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006. The statutory accounts for 2019 will be finalised on the basis of the financial information presented by the Directors in this Preliminary Announcement and using policies consistent in all material respects with the policies applied in the Company's statutory accounts for 2018, as set out in those accounts as delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The statutory accounts for 2019 will be delivered to the Registrar of Companies following the Company's next Annual General Meeting.

 

 

2. Significant judgements and estimates

 

In preparing the financial information the Group must make a number of judgements and estimates. Management consider the following judgements and estimates to be particularly significant because of the level of complexity or estimation involved in their application and their impact on the financial information.

 

i. Property valuations

The valuation of the Group's property portfolio is inherently subjective, depending on many factors, including the individual nature of each property, its location and expected future net rental values, market yields and comparable market transactions. Therefore the valuations are subject to a degree of uncertainty and are made on the basis of assumptions which may not prove to be accurate, particularly in periods of difficult market or economic conditions. All the Group's properties are valued by external valuers with appropriate qualifications and experience.

 

In the UK the aggregate amount of the valuation is £1,875,195,000 at 31 March 2019 and in the US the aggregate amount of the valuation is £750,468,000 at 31 March 2019. Both are based on the open market values assessed in accordance with professional standards. The aggregate professional valuations included in Investment property on the balance sheet have been reduced by an amount of £70,997,000 transferred to Properties held for sale and £22,148,000 relating to lease incentives included in Trade and other receivables.

 

ii. Income taxes

The tax treatment of some transactions and calculations cannot be determined until a formal resolution has been reached with the relevant tax authorities. In particular, the Group is discussing the treatment of historical financing arrangements with tax authorities. In such cases, a best estimate of the relevant tax charge or credit is made, having regard to the extent of uncertainties associated with it. Where the final outcome of such matters is different from amounts initially recorded, those differences will be reflected in the income and deferred tax amounts at the time of the formal resolution.

4. Taxation

 

The Group's overall effective tax rate was 13.0% charge (2018 - 0.8% credit). In the UK, the effective tax rate was 15.1% (2018 - 15.7%). In the USA, the effective rate was 8.8% charge (2018 - 38.2% credit). In the USA we had a tax credit in 2018 due to the Trump administration change in the USA corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% which led us to recalculate our USA deferred tax liabilities as well.

 

 

5. Dividends

 

Dividends of £16.8m (2018:£16.0m) were paid in the year ended 31 March 2019.

8. Financial Instruments - fair value disclosure

 

The Group seeks to reduce interest rate risk by fixing rates on the majority of its loans and borrowings, either through the use of the fixed rate mortgage finance or through interest rate swaps. The Group does not speculate in treasury products.

 

The Group does not hedge account and all its interest rate swaps are initially recognised and subsequently recorded at fair value, with any movement being recorded in the consolidated income statement. The fair values of all interest rate swaps and fixed rate loans are determined by reference to observable inputs that are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy set out in International Financial Reporting Standard 13 Fair Value Measurement. Fair values have been determined by discounting expected future cash flows using market interest rates and yield curves over the remaining term of the instrument, as adjusted to reflect the credit risk attributable to the Group and, where relevant, it's counterparty and fees.
