Kenneth MacKenzie, Managing Partner of Target Advisers LLP, commented on the Company's activity during the period:

 

"We are pleased with the Company's performance during the quarter. The existing portfolio has delivered strong rental returns allied with further capital growth as the portfolio matures and upwards-only rental reviews are reflected in valuations.

 

We are also delighted to have invested a significant proportion of the proceeds of the recent share issue. We maintain a robust investment pipeline and have a number of investment opportunities both under negotiation and at advanced non-binding heads of terms stage, which we hope to execute, subject to the availability of capital."
