CHIEF EXECUTIVE'S STATEMENT

Financial performance

I am pleased to report the Group's unaudited preliminary results for the year ended 31 March 2026, which yielded a profit before tax of £3.40 million (31 March 2025: £3.03 million). The increase benefitted from improved underlying profits (by some £650,000 per annum) mainly attributable to increased rental income at the Group's directly owned office property in Warsaw, Blue Tower, and also from lower overheads due to cost saving measures implemented in the prior year.

During the year, the Group sold two directly owned properties which generated £1.18 million in profit before tax. One of these was a commercial property purchased in the UK during the year. The other was an office block in Bucharest, Romania. The combined sales consideration amounted to £4.17 million which, after sales costs, contributed £4.06 million to the Group's cash balance.

The Group ended the financial year with net assets calculated under the cost basis of accounting, excluding non-controlling interests, of £48.22 million (31 March 2025: £45.09 million), equating to 32.61 pence per share (31 March 2025: 30.50 pence per share). It is the accounting policy of the Group to carry its properties and interests in associates at the lower of cost or market value.

The net assets of the Group when adjusted to their market value less any deferred tax liabilities (EPRA basis) amounted to £57.21 million, or 38.57 pence per share at 31 March 2026 (31 March 2025: £52.99 million or 35.72 pence per share).

Gross debt reduced to £12.99 million (31 March 2025: £24.37 million), mainly due to the deconsolidation of Fprop Gdynia Sp. Zoo from the accounts of the Group, following it being placed into administration on 30 April 2025.

A total of £1.84 million of loan capital repayments were made by the Group during the year. All Group debt is secured against five commercial properties in Poland. £3.95 million of the total debt is non-interest bearing.

Net debt reduced to £6.04 million (31 March 2025: £19.55 million).

The Group's gearing ratio with its properties at their book value reduced to 21.2% (31 March 2025: 35.1%) and with its properties at their market value reduced to 18.5% (31 March 2025: 31.5%).

Group cash balance at the year-end stood at £6.95 million (31 March 2025: £4.82 million), equivalent to 4.70 pence per share (31 March 2025: 3.26 pence per share).

Diluted earnings per share increased by 10.4% to 1.81 pence per share (2025: 1.64 pence per share).

Dividend

The Directors have resolved to pay a final dividend of 0.25 pence per share (2025: 0.00 pence per share).

The proposed final dividend will be paid on 29 September 2026 to shareholders on the register at 28 August 2026 (record date) and is subject to shareholder approval at the forthcoming annual general meeting to be held on 24 September 2026. The ex-dividend date will be 27 August 2026.

REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

GROUP PROPERTIES DIVISION

As at 31 March 2026 the Group Properties division comprised:

1. five directly owned commercial properties in Poland valued at £44.98 million (31 March 2025:

seven properties valued at £56.04 million); and

2. interests in nine of the eleven funds managed by FPAM (classified as Associates and Investments) valued at £24.04 million (31 March 2025: £22.61 million).

This division generated a profit before tax and unallocated central overheads of £3.90 million (2025: £3.16 million), of which £2.16 million was derived from directly owned properties and £1.74 million from Associates and Investments.

1. Directly owned Group Properties (all accounted for under the cost model):

The book value of the Group's five directly owned properties was £35.16 million (31 March 2025: seven properties held at £46.76 million). Their market value, based on valuations at 31 March 2026, was £44.98 million (31 March 2025: £56.04 million).

* Prior to the deduction of direct overhead and unallocated central overhead expenses.

The contribution to profit before tax and unallocated central overheads from the directly owned properties was £2.16 million, of which £1.18 million was from one-off gains from two property disposals, as mentioned earlier.

Blue Tower, an office building located in Warsaw (in which the Group's 80.3% shareholding totals 18,900 square metres) accounted for £32.31 million (72%) of the Group's five directly owned properties at market value. The net equity invested in these five properties was £31.99 million at market value, of which £23.32 million (also 73%) was invested in Blue Tower.

The debt secured against these five properties reduced by around half during the year to £12.99 million (31 March 2025: £24.37 million). Of this, only £9.04 million was interest bearing. The remaining £3.95 million represents the deferred consideration in respect of the purchase in 2022 of an additional 32% or 7,171 square metres in Blue Tower. Payment is due in instalments until August 2028. A total of PLN 21.00 million (£4.09 million) of the original liability has been paid. The next instalment of £1.02 million is due in August 2026.

Interest costs on the Group's debt reduced to £0.49 million (2025: £0.69 million). This equates to an average cost of debt of 3.8% when measured against total Group borrowings of £12.99 million, or 5.4% on the £9.04 million of interest‑bearing debt. The difference reflects the proportion of non‑interest‑bearing liabilities, mainly the deferred consideration, which provides a low-cost source of funding.

At 31 March 2026, the vacancy rate across all five properties was 2,680 square metres or 10.6% by area. If the vacant space were to be let, the net operating income from the Group's directly owned properties would increase by some €0.43 million per annum (£0.38 million per annum).

The weighted average unexpired lease term ("WAULT") across the Group's five directly held properties as at 31 March 2026 was 3 years, 11 months (2025: 4 years, 10 months).

2. Associates and Investments

These comprise non-controlling interests in nine of the eleven funds managed by FPAM of which five are accounted for as Associates and held at the lower of cost or fair value (the "cost model"), and four are accounted for as Investments in funds and held at fair value.

The contribution to profit before tax and unallocated central overheads from the Group's Associates and Investments was £1.74 million (31 March 2025: £3.21 million), of which £1.34 million was from the Group's 45.7% share in Fprop Opportunities plc (FOP). The Group's investment in Fprop Krakow Ltd (FKR) suffered an impairment of £0.16 million (2025: impairment of £0.12 million).

The Group also benefitted from cash distributions of £177,000 (2025: £422,000) from its shareholdings in The UK Pension Property Portfolio LP (UK PPP), Fprop UK Special Opportunities LP (SPEC OPPS) and Fprop Fulcrum Property LP (FULCRUM).

At the year-end the Associates and Investments were valued at £24.04 million (31 March 2025: £22.61 million). An overview of the Group's Associates and Investments is set out in the table below:

FUND MANAGEMENT DIVISION

Third party assets under management at the year-end decreased by 12.2% to £144 million (31 March 2025: £164 million).

The decrease was largely attributable to the loss of control of one property valued at £27.50 million and the sale of another three properties for £7.35 million, all in the United Kingdom. These sales were offset by the purchase of two properties in the United Kingdom for £12.47 million and foreign currency revaluation gains of £4.43 million.

At the year-end 71% of third-party assets under management were in Poland, 23% in the United Kingdom and 6% in Romania.

Revenue earned by this division during the year decreased to £1.61 million (31 March 2025: £2.26 million), resulting in a profit before unallocated central overheads and tax of £0.32 million (31 March 2025: £1.04 million). This decrease in revenue was largely driven by the expiry of fund mandates and the non-repeat of payments in lieu of management fees (31 March 2025: £0.30 million).

At the financial year end fund management fee income was being earned at an annualised rate of £1.30 million (31 March 2025: £1.40 million).

The weighted average unexpired fund management contract term at the financial year-end was 4 years, 1 month (31 March 2025: 3 years, 4 months).

The reconciliation of movement in third party funds managed by FPAM during the year is shown below:

An overview of the value of assets and maturity dates of each of the funds managed by FPAM is set out below:

The sub sector weightings of investments in FPAM funds is set out in the table below:

Commercial Property Markets Outlook

Poland:

The Polish economic outlook remains comparatively robust, with GDP growth expected to be around 3.5% in 2026, underpinned by resilient consumption and EU-funded investment. Inflation has proved sticky at around 3.1% in May 2026, amid persistent energy cost pressures. The easing cycle has paused, with the NBP reference rate held at 3.75% and rates expected to remain on hold through year-end.

Sentiment in the Polish commercial property market is improving. Investment turnover is expected to exceed the prior year (2025: €4.5 billion), with domestic capital taking a rising share (2025: 16%; 2026 estimate: 20%). Occupational markets are resilient, supported by limited new development and stable demand, with modest rental growth in prime assets.

Investment demand is focused on modern, well-located, ESG-compliant buildings.

United Kingdom:

The UK economic outlook remains subdued, with GDP growth expected to be around 1% in 2026 amid geopolitical uncertainty and weak productivity. Having eased to 2.8% in May 2026, inflation is now expected to reaccelerate, with CPI forecast at around 3.5% by year-end. The downward path for interest rates has stalled, with the base rate held at 3.75% and risk skewed towards a prolonged hold, sustaining a cautious investment environment.

The investment market for commercial property has been relatively steady in recent months, though sentiment remains weak. Performance is increasingly income-driven, with limited scope for capital value growth in the near term. Occupational markets remain relatively resilient, supported by constrained development pipelines and stable tenant demand, with modest rental growth concentrated in prime assets. The market continues to exhibit a clear bifurcation, with strong demand for modern, well-located and environmentally compliant buildings, and ongoing obsolescence risk for secondary stock.

Current Trading and Prospects

I am pleased to report a further significant improvement in the performance of the Group.

The economy and markets remain challenging, but we are identifying some interesting deals and taking the opportunity to buy them where possible. We are supported in this endeavour by around £7 million in Group cash and access to third-party capital from long-term clients.

Our outlook is therefore positive.

GROUP FINANCE DIRECTOR'S REVIEW

The Group reported a profit before tax for the year to 31 March 2026 of £3.40 million (31 March 2025: £3.03 million). The increase was driven by improved underlying profitability by some £650,000 per annum, mainly attributable to an increased contribution from the Group's directly owned office property in Warsaw, Blue Tower, as well as lower overhead costs due to the cost saving measures implemented in the prior year.

During the year the Group sold two directly owned properties generating a combined profit of £1.18 million. One of these was a commercial property purchased in the United Kingdom during the year. The other was an office block in Bucharest, Romania. The combined sales consideration amounted to £4.17 million which, after sales costs, increased the Group's cash balance by £4.06 million.

On 30 April 2025, the Directors placed the Group's wholly owned subsidiary, Fprop Gdynia Sp. Zoo, which owns an office block in Gdynia, Poland, into administration. This was following failure to agree restructuring terms with its principal creditor. As a result of this action, it was deemed the Group had lost control of the entity and its assets and liabilities were deconsolidated from the accounts of the Group. The company operated on a breakeven basis so there was no material impact on the Group's trading profits. See note 5, Loss of control for further information.

Group net assets excluding non-controlling interests at 31 March 2026 increased by 6.9% to £48.22 million (31 March 2025: £45.09 million).

Gross debt at the year-end was £12.99 million, a reduction of £11.38 million from the prior year (31 March 2025: £24.37 million), largely due to the deconsolidation of Fprop Gdynia Sp. Zoo from the accounts of the Group, which resulted in the removal of £10.04 million of debt (matched by the carried value of the property held by the company). The Group also paid £1.02 million of the deferred consideration in respect of Blue Tower, and £0.82 million in bank loan repayments. Adverse foreign exchange movements amounted to £0.50 million. Included within gross debt is £3.95 million of the deferred consideration, on which no interest is payable.

Net debt decreased to £6.04 million (31 March 2025: £19.55 million).

GOING CONCERN

The Directors consider that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence, and this is the basis under which this financial information has been prepared.

Analysis and scenario testing was carried out on the Group's main divisional income streams, being fund management fees from the fund management division, rental income from its five directly owned properties, and cash returns from its Associates and Investments. Further details of this analysis are set out in the "Basis of Preparation" note below.

Based on the results of the analysis conducted, the Board believes that the Group can continue its business for at least twelve months from the date of approval of these preliminary results and therefore has adopted the going concern basis in the preparation of this financial information.

INCOME STATEMENT

A review of the operating and financial performance of the two trading divisions is included in the Chief Executive's Statement.

Revenue and Gross Profit

Revenue for the year increased by £1.17 million to £8.72 million (31 March 2025: £7.55 million). The increase was largely due to the sale of one trading property in the United Kingdom for £1.50 million. This property had been acquired on 27 August 2025 for £0.57 million. Its sale on 28 October 2025 generated a profit (net of selling costs) of £0.91 million.

Fund management fee income reduced by £0.65 million to £1.61 million (31 March 2025: £2.26 million) largely due to the expiry of fund mandates and the non-repeat of payments in lieu of management fees (31 March 2025: £0.30 million). Annualised fund management fee income as at 31 March 2026 was £1.30 million (31 March 2025: £1.40 million).

Rental and service charge income increased by £0.32 million to £5.61 million, mainly due to new lease agreements at Blue Tower, offset by the loss of revenue from two directly held properties in Bucharest, Romania (Dr. Felix) and in Gdynia (Fprop Gdynia).

Gross profit (revenue less the cost of sales) increased by 21.2% to £5.84 million (31 March 2025: £4.82 million) largely due to the profit of £0.91 million earned from the sale of the trading property in the United Kingdom.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses remained stable at £4.38 million (31 March 2025: £4.32 million).

The non-cash charge recognised in respect of the outstanding share options reduced to £0.12 million (31 March 2025: £0.29 million). This was the final charge in respect of this share-based payment scheme.

Share of Results in Associates

The contribution to Group profit from its Associates amounted to £1.74 million (31 March 2025: £3.21 million), of which the Group's 45.7% interest in Fprop Opportunities plc (FOP), a fund managed by FPAM, contributed £1.34 million (31 March 2025: £0.94 million). The Group's 18.1% holding in Fprop Krakow Ltd (FKR) suffered an impairment of £0.16 million (31 March 2025: £0.12 million).

Investment Income (from other financial assets and investments)

Investment income generated from the Group's investments in UK funds managed by FPAM amounted to £0.18 million (31 March 2025: £0.42 million). Prior year distributions were higher due to proceeds from UK PPP and SPEC OPPS following the sale of seven properties by these funds.

Financing Costs

Finance costs decreased to £0.49 million (31 March 2025: £0.69 million). All bank loans are denominated in Euros, and all are used to finance properties valued in Euros.

STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION 

Investment Properties (held using the cost model)

The Group adheres to the "cost model" of valuation whereby investment properties are accounted for at the lower of cost less accumulated depreciation and impairments, or fair market value.

During the year the Group sold one of its directly held properties, Dr. Felix, an office block in Bucharest, Romania, for €3.05 million (£2.67 million). This generated a profit before tax for the Group of £0.27 million. There was no debt secured against this property, so the sale boosted the Group's cash balance by £2.58 million (net of selling costs).

On placing Fprop Gdynia Sp. Zoo into administration, the Group was deemed to have lost control of the company and accordingly the property. At that time, the property's carrying value of £10.04 million matched the loan secured against it.

At the year end the Group held five properties. Their book value was £35.16 million (31 March 2025: £46.76 million). Their fair market value was £44.98 million (31 March 2025: £56.04 million).

Capital expenditure incurred on the Group's directly owned properties amounted to £0.43 million (31 March 2025: £1.42 million).

Foreign exchange revaluations resulted in a debit of £0.68 million (31 March 2025: debit £0.24 million).

Borrowings

Bank and other borrowings, including deferred consideration, decreased by £11.38 million to £12.99 million (31 March 2025: £24.37 million). This reduction was mainly due to the deconsolidation of Fprop Gdynia Sp. Zoo ("GDY") from the accounts of the Group.

Borrowings were further reduced by payments of £1.02 million of the deferred consideration in respect of Blue Tower and £0.82 million of capital repayments in respect of bank loans. These were offset by adverse foreign exchange movements of £0.50 million. All debt is non-recourse to the Group.

The ratio of debt to gross assets at their market value (the gearing ratio) decreased to 18.5% (31 March 2025: 31.5%).

All bank loans are denominated in Euros and are non-recourse to the Group.

Deposits of £0.32 million (31 March 2025: £0.31 million) are held by lending banks as security in respect of Debt Service Cover Ratio (DSCR) covenants in respect of four bank loans (31 March 2025: four). Consequently, this cash was restricted as at 31 March 2026.

Non-controlling Interests

The value of the Group's two non-controlling interests increased by £0.27 million to £2.50 million (31 March 2025: £2.23 million). The two non-controlling interests are:

1. 10.0% of the share capital of Corp Sp. Zoo, the property management company to Blue Tower; and

2. 52.8% of the share capital of 5th Property Trading Ltd (5PT), a fund invested in three commercial properties in Poland.

Investment Revaluation Reserve

The investment revaluation reserve reduced by £1.20 million to a debit balance of £1.25 million (31 March 2025: £2.45 million). The reserve debit balances of OFFICES (a fund which expired in June 2024) and UK PPP (a fund which was formally wound up on 2 June 2026), amounting to £1.33 million, were recycled to the profit and loss account.

The remaining investment revaluation reserve balance relates to the Group's investment in SPEC OPPS and FULCRUM. The Group will recycle these to the profit and loss account during the financial year in which these funds are wound up.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Group's cash balance increased to £6.95 million (31 March 2025: £4.82 million) largely due to the cash received from the sale of two Group properties which, after sales costs, increased the Group's cash balance by £4.06 million.

The main outflows were:

· £1.02 million for the deferred consideration payment in respect of Blue Tower.

· £0.82 million of capital repayments in respect of the Group's bank loans.

· £0.57 million for the purchase of a trading property in the United Kingdom.

· £0.43 million in capital expenditure.

Notes to the Accounts

Basis of Preparation

These preliminary results have not been audited and are derived from the statutory accounts within the meaning of section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. They have been prepared in accordance with the Group's accounting policies that will be applied in the Group's annual financial statements for the year-ended 31 March 2026. The policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated below. These accounting policies are drawn up in accordance with UK-adopted International Accounting Standards ('IFRS'). Whilst the financial information included in this preliminary statement has been prepared in accordance with IFRS, this announcement does not itself contain sufficient information to fully comply with IFRS. The comparative figures for the financial year ended 31 March 2025 are not the statutory accounts for the financial year but are derived from those accounts prepared under IFRS which have been reported on by the Group's auditors and delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The report of the auditors was unqualified, did not include references to any matter to which the auditors drew attention by way of emphasis without qualifying their report and did not contain a statement under section 498 (2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006.

Going Concern

The Directors have carried out an analysis which supports their view that the Group is a going concern, and under which basis these preliminary results have been prepared.

Analysis and scenario testing was carried out on the Group's main divisional income streams, being fund management fees from the fund management division, rental income from its five directly owned properties and cash returns from its associates and investments.

a) Fund Management Fee Income

Fund management fee income is derived from the Group's UK funds, whose investors are a mix of pension funds and registered charities. Fund management fees are invoiced monthly and are calculated based on a percentage of the latest valuation, which for the UK funds is performed quarterly.

Fund management fees on the Group's Polish and Romanian managed funds are also levied as a percentage of funds under management, with reference to the most recent valuations. These funds are established under the ownership of a UK limited company which in turn owns the company domiciled in the country that owns the property. Each of these local companies has borrowings secured against the property and is therefore ring fenced from the Group. 

The longevity of this fund management fee income is determined by the fund's life which is fixed by agreement when each fund is first established. The weighted average unexpired fund management contract term is 4 years, 1 month.

At the financial year end, fund management fee income was being earned at an annualised rate of £1.30 million (31 March 2025: £1.40 million).

b) Rental Income from Group Properties

The five Group Properties are located in Poland. These properties consist of two office blocks, a mini-supermarket, one multi-let property and ground-floor retail property. All were independently valued on 31 March 2026 at £44.98 million (31 March 2025: £56.04 million).

The rental income has been reviewed when setting the forecast revenues and no significant falls in collection rates are expected. The tenants are of good quality, as proven by excellent historic cash collection rates. Any renegotiation of rental payment terms that have been agreed are reflected in the forecasting analysis.

On 12 August 2022 the Group acquired 7,171 square metres in Blue Tower, an office building located in Warsaw for PLN 40.40 million (£7.20 million). The purchase resulted in the Group's interest in the building increasing from 48.2% to 80.3%. Some 5,159 square metres of this newly acquired space was vacant at purchase. At 31 March 2026, 1,690 square metres of the Group's interest in Blue Tower remains vacant, if this were leased in full the Group's net operating income would improve by some c€431,000 per annum.

c) Income from Associates and Investments

Analysis was also conducted on the Group's investment in its five (31 March 2025: five) Associates. All bank loan covenants were reviewed and tested against future decreases in valuation and net operating income.

Dividend income from the Group's UK investments was also stress tested and found not to have a significant impact on revenue.

d) Liquidity

The Group has a deferred consideration liability of PLN 19.40 million (£3.95 million) in respect of the purchase in 2022 of an additional 32% or 7,171 square metres in Blue Tower, an office building located in Warsaw. Payment is due in instalments until August 2028. The debt itself is non-interest bearing and non-recourse to the Group. The next instalment of £1.02 million is due in August 2026 and the Group intends to make this payment from retained cash.

The Group monitors overall debt requirements by reviewing current borrowing levels, debt maturity and interest rate exposure. The Group does not have any debt due for renewal in the next twelve months other than the deferred consideration payment referred to above.

A one percentage point increase in interest rates would increase the annual interest cost by £0.09 million per annum (31 March 2025: £0.09 million).

Deposits of £0.32 million (31 March 2025: £0.31 million) are held by lending banks as security in respect of Debt Service Cover Ratio (DSCR) covenants relating to four bank loans (31 March 2025: four). Consequently, this cash was restricted as at 31 March 2026.

New Standards and Interpretations

Standards effective in the current year

No new standards, amendments or interpretations effective for the financial year beginning on 1 April 2025 had a material impact on the Group's preliminary statements.

Standards issued but not yet effective

Certain new standards, amendments and interpretations have been issued by the International Accounting Standards Board but are not yet effective for the year ended 31 March 2026 and have not been early adopted by the Group.

These preliminary results were approved by the Board of Directors on 25 June 2026.

1. Revenue

Revenue from continuing operations consists of revenue arising in the United Kingdom 21% (31 March 2025: 11%), Poland 74% (31 March 2025: 79%) and Romania 5% (31 March 2025: 10%). All revenue relates solely to the Group's principal activities.

3. Interest Income/(Expense)

4. Tax Expense

The tax charge includes current and deferred tax for continuing operations.

As in prior years, brought forward and current UK tax losses have not been recognised as a deferred tax asset due to insufficient foreseeable taxable income being earned in the UK.

5. Loss of Control

As announced by RNS on 30 April 2025 the decision was taken to place Fprop Gdynia Sp. Zoo ("GDY") into administration following the Company's failure to agree restructuring terms with its principal creditor. As a result of this action, it was deemed the Group had lost control of this entity and its assets and liabilities were deconsolidated from the accounts of the Group.

On 31 July 2025, the Group sold GDY Property (1) Ltd (formerly Fprop Gdynia Podolska Limited) and GDY Property (2) Ltd (formerly Fprop Gdynia Limited), the joint shareholders of GDY, for a consideration of £1 respectively.

As a result of the loss of control of these entities, the Group recognised a one-off gain on disposal of £0.15 million.
