Q1 Dividend Declaration

The PRS REIT, the closed-ended real estate investment trust that invests in high-quality, new build, family homes in the private rented sector, is pleased to declare an interim quarterly dividend of 1.0 pence per ordinary share in respect of the first quarter (July-September) of its new financial year ending 30 June 2025.

One hundred per cent. (1.0 pence per share) of the dividend will be paid as a Property Income Distribution.  

The dividend will be payable, on or around 29 November 2024, to shareholders on the register on 15 November 2024. The ex-dividend date will be 14 November 2024. 

The Company's continued earnings growth provides the Board with the opportunity to consider raising the total dividend payout target for the new financial year while also maintaining full dividend cover from EPRA earnings per share. This will be considered, in due course, alongside the strategic review and formal sale process as announced on 23 October 2024.
