Company commentary

Phil Redding, CEO of Tritax EuroBox plc, commented:

"These lettings, combined with our recently announced asset disposal in Hammersbach, Germany, provide further evidence of the successful delivery of our strategy. They demonstrate strong occupier demand in Italy as well as robust ERV growth in Germany, which we have been able to capture as we pursue the portfolio's 15% [1] reversionary potential. These leases highlight our ability to target the embedded opportunities within our portfolio and secure additional income from our assets.

"The high-quality nature of our portfolio is reflected in the pace at which we are able to let newly developed assets and the rental levels we are achieving. Through asset management activities we are adding long-term rental income to the portfolio at attractive levels from high-calibre customers."
