19 February 2021
TRITAX EUROBOX PLC
(the " Company ")
Proposed Equity Issue
The Board of Directors (the "Directors") of Tritax EuroBox plc
(tickers: EBOX (Sterling) and BOXE (Euro)), which invests in
Continental European logistics real estate assets, today announces
the proposed issue of new ordinary shares ("New Ordinary Shares")
in the Company to raise targeted gross proceeds of approximately
GBP173 million (EUR200 million) (the "Issue") and a proposed
placing programme of further ordinary shares and/or C shares (the
"Placing Programme"), the details of which will be set out in the
prospectus which is expected to be published by the Company later
today (the "Prospectus").
Key Highlights:
-- The Issue will be by way of a placing, open offer, offer for
subscription and intermediaries offer for a target issue of
168,000,309 New Ordinary Shares at an issue price of 103 pence per
New Ordinary Share (the "Issue Price").
-- The Issue Price represents the audited IFRS NAV per Ordinary
Share as at 30 September 2020 of EUR1.19 converted at prevailing
exchange rates.
-- The Issue Price also represents a discount of 2.4% to the
Company's closing share price of 105.5 pence per Ordinary Share on
18 February 2021 (being the last business day prior to this
announcement).
-- Shareholders who qualify for the Open Offer ("Qualifying
Shareholders") will be offered the opportunity to participate in
the Open Offer on the basis of:
1 New Ordinary Share for every 5 Existing Ordinary Shares held
(the "Open Offer Entitlement").
Qualifying Shareholders are also being offered the opportunity
to subscribe for New Ordinary Shares in addition to their Open
Offer Entitlement under an excess application facility, further
details of which will be set out in the Prospectus (the "Excess
Application Facility").
-- The Company's manager, Tritax Management LLP (the "Manager"),
expects to use the net proceeds of the Issue, together with
existing resources and debt, to secure the acquisition of a
near-term investment pipeline of prime big box logistics assets,
comprising:
o Three German assets with a value of EUR317 million sourced
through the Manager's developer/asset manager relationships on an
off-market basis
o Three further assets (two in Italy, one in Germany) with a
value of EUR99 million also sourced through the Manager's
developer/asset manager relationships on an off-market basis
o EUR81 million of development opportunities within the existing
portfolio at an attractive yield on cost
-- The Manager is confident that the proceeds of the Issue can
be deployed into this pipeline within three months of completion of
the Issue.
-- Completion of the Issue at the targeted size is expected to
provide the Company with a path to an Investment Grade credit
rating, resulting in a lower cost of borrowings.
-- The Company has agreed with the Manager to reduce its
management fee by 0.15% on NAV above EUR500 million (such that
management fees will be 1.15% between NAV of EUR500 million and up
to and including EUR2 billion, as opposed to 1.15% between NAV of
EUR1 billion and up to and including EUR2 billion).
-- Placing Programme of up to 300 million further ordinary shares and/or C shares.
-- The Issue and the Placing Programme are conditional upon,
inter alia, the passing of certain shareholder resolutions (the
"Resolutions") to be proposed at a general meeting of the Company
expected to take place on 8 March 2021 (the "General Meeting"),
further details of which are set out in a circular to the Company's
shareholders expected to be posted to shareholders later today (the
"Circular"). Applications will be made for the New Ordinary Shares
to be issued pursuant to the Issue to be admitted to the premium
listing segment of the Official List of the FCA and to trading on
the London Stock Exchange's main market for listed securities
("Initial Admission").
Terms not otherwise defined in this announcement have the
meanings that will be given to them in the Prospectus. This summary
should be read in conjunction with the full text of this
announcement and the Prospectus, when available.
Background to the Issue
The Company listed on the London Stock Exchange in 2018 with the
objective of investing in Continental European logistics real
estate assets diversified by geography and tenant and targeting
well located assets in established distribution hubs, within or
close to densely populated areas.
The Company's investment portfolio now comprises 13 assets,
spread across key logistics locations in six core Continental
European countries. As at 30 September 2020, the portfolio was
independently valued at EUR839.3 million (excluding the recently
acquired asset in Nivelles, Belgium but including the First Lodz
Asset, which the Group has contracted to dispose for EUR65.5
million).
The Company operates in a market underpinned by strong
fundamentals including rising occupier demand for logistics
facilities which is being driven by an unprecedented change in
consumer behaviour created by the rapid growth of e-commerce,
internet shopping and convenience retail. The outbreak of COVID-19
has served to reinforce, magnify and accelerate these trends.
The Manager believes this transformation of the retail landscape
to fully accommodate on-line shopping has some way to go before
reaching an equilibrium. The current rates of market penetration
for on-line sales have considerable scope to grow further over the
coming years, with Continental European rates materially lagging
that of the UK. In addition, the Continental European logistics
market continues to experience a scarcity of high quality stock
caused by a relatively limited speculative development response and
declines in land availability. The combination of these factors has
resulted in low vacancy rates across most European markets and a
shortage of high quality buildings available to rent. Meanwhile
prices in the investment market have risen (and investment yields
have fallen), reflecting in part investor expectations that
logistics assets will generate higher growth than other property
asset classes as well as fierce competition for assets.
The Manager's expectation is that this positive backdrop,
characterised by strengthening demand and relatively constrained
supply, will continue to provide a favourable underpin to the
Continental European logistics sector and the activities of the
Group.
Benefits of the Issue
The Directors believes that the Issue will have the following
benefits for the Company:
-- Allow the Company to acquire its identified near-term pipeline of investment opportunities;
-- Allow the Company to build on the strong market position
already established by further diversifying specific country,
tenant and asset concentration and lowering overall portfolio
risk;
-- The greater diversification and security provided by raising
the targeted amount of new equity and securing a larger portfolio
gives the Company the potential to achieve an Investment Grade
credit rating. This is expected to provide access to a deeper pool
of potential lenders to the Company, resulting in a lower cost of
borrowing;
-- An increase in the size of the Investment Portfolio will also
spread the Group's fixed operating expenses over a larger capital
base, which the Company expects will reduce ongoing expenses per
Share;
-- Increasing the size of the Company should help improve the
liquidity and marketability of the Company's shares and broaden the
investor base over the longer term; and
-- The Company also seeks to exert a positive socio-economic
impact on occupiers and local communities. The increase in scale
will allow for the Company to accelerate its sustainability
strategy and deliver its energy and carbon reduction commitments
and positioning the portfolio for the future.
Details of the Issue
Jefferies International Limited ("Jefferies") and van Lanschot
Kempen Wealth Management N.V. ("Kempen & Co") are acting as
joint global co-ordinators and joint bookrunners to the Company in
connection with the Issue and the Placing Programme.
The Company intends to raise target gross proceeds of
approximately GBP173 million (EUR200 million) through the issue of
168,000,309 New Ordinary Shares at the Issue Price. The actual
number of New Ordinary Shares to be issued pursuant to the Issue is
not known as at the date of this announcement but will be notified
by the Company via a Regulatory Information Service prior to
Initial Admission.
T he Directors have flexibility to increase the number of New
Ordinary Shares to be issued under the Issue if they believe there
is sufficient investor demand for those shares and suitable assets
available for investment in which to deploy the net Issue proceeds.
Any such increase will be announced by the Company through a
Regulatory Information Service.
The Issue Price is 103 pence per Ordinary Share. Participants in
the Placing may elect to subscribe for the New Ordinary Shares in
Sterling at the Issue Price or in Euro at a price per New Ordinary
Share equal to the Issue Price at a GBP/EUR exchange rate to be
notified by the Company via a Regulatory Information Service (the
"Relevant Euro Exchange Rate") on or around 5 March 2021.
Applicants under the Open Offer, the Offer for Subscription and
Intermediaries Offer may subscribe for Ordinary Shares in Sterling
only.
The New Ordinary Shares to be issued under the Issue will rank
pari passu in all respects with the Existing Ordinary Shares and
each other, and will rank in full for all dividends made, paid or
declared in respect of the Ordinary Shares by reference to a record
date after their issue, including the next quarterly dividend
declared by the Company for the quarter ending 31 March 2021 which
is expected to be declared in May 2021. For the avoidance of doubt,
the first interim dividend for the period from 1 October 2020 to 31
December 2020, the record date of which was 19 February 2021, will
not be paid on the New Ordinary Shares.
The Issue, which is not underwritten, comprises the Placing, the
Open Offer, the Offer for Subscription and the Intermediaries
Offer, and is conditional upon inter alia:
-- the Resolutions relating to the Issue having been passed by
the Company's shareholders at the General Meeting;
-- the Placing Agreement having become unconditional in all
respects with respect to the Issue, save for the condition relating
to Initial Admission, and not having been terminated in accordance
with its terms before Initial Admission occurs; and
-- Initial Admission becoming effective by not later than 8.00
a.m. on 10 March 2021 (or such later time and/or date as the Joint
Bookrunners and the Company may agree, not being later than 31
March 2021).
If any of these conditions are not satisfied or, if applicable,
waived, then the Issue will not proceed.
By choosing to participate in the Placing and by making an oral
and legally binding offer to subscribe for Ordinary Shares,
investors will be deemed to have read and understood this
Announcement and the Prospectus in their entirety and to be making
such offer on the terms and subject to the conditions in the
Prospectus, and to be providing the representations, warranties and
acknowledgements contained therein.
New Ordinary Shares are being offered to Qualifying Shareholders
by way of the Open Offer. The Open Offer will provide an
opportunity for Qualifying Shareholders to participate in the Issue
by subscribing for their Open Offer Entitlements, being 1 New
Ordinary Share for every 5 Existing Ordinary Shares held and
registered in their name at a record date as outlined in the
Prospectus.
The Directors are also proposing to offer New Ordinary Shares
under an offer for subscription (the "Offer for Subscription"),
subject to the terms and conditions to be set out in the
Prospectus. The Offer for Subscription is only being made in the
UK, but subject to applicable law, the Company may allot and issue
New Ordinary Shares on a private placement basis to applicants in
other jurisdictions.
Prospective investors may also subscribe for New Ordinary Shares
pursuant to an intermediaries offer (the "Intermediaries Offer").
Only the Intermediaries' retail investor clients in the United
Kingdom, Guernsey, Jersey and the Isle of Man are eligible to
participate in the Intermediaries Offer. Investors may apply to any
one of the Intermediaries to be accepted as their client
The Offer for Subscription and the Intermediaries Offer may be
scaled back in favour of the Placing and the Placing may be scaled
back in favour of the Offer for Subscription and the Intermediaries
Offer in the Directors' discretion (in consultation with Jefferies
and Kempen & Co). The Open Offer is being made on a pre-emptive
basis to Qualifying Shareholders and is not subject to any scaling
back in favour of either the Placing, the Offer for Subscription or
the Intermediaries Offer, save that any New Ordinary Shares that
are available under the Open Offer and are not taken up by
Qualifying Shareholders pursuant to their Open Offer Entitlements
and under the Excess Application Facility may be reallocated to the
Placing and/or the Offer for Subscription and/or the Intermediaries
Offer and made available thereunder. In addition, to the extent
that any New Ordinary Shares available under the Placing or Offer
for Subscription are not fully subscribed, then such New Ordinary
Shares will be available to satisfy applications under the Excess
Application Facility, if required.
Applications will be made to the FCA for the New Ordinary Shares
to be admitted to the premium listing segment of the Official List
and to the London Stock Exchange for the New Ordinary Shares to be
admitted to trading on its main market for listed securities.
Subject to the conditions above being satisfied, it is expected
that Initial Admission will become effective on 10 March 2021 and
that dealings in the New Ordinary Shares will commence at 8.00 a.m.
on the same day.
The Placing Programme is being created to provide the Company
with the flexibility, should it wish, to raise further capital over
the 12 months from the date of publication of the Prospectus which
it may use to either repay debt or deploy into new investment
opportunities in accordance with its investment policy. Any future
issues under the Placing Programme are dependent on the Company's
pipeline of investment opportunities and drawings on the Company's
debt facilities and accordingly there is no certainty that there
will be any future issues of shares under the Placing Programme
before its expiry.
Further details of the Issue and the Placing Programme will be
set out in the Prospectus and the Circular. A copy of the
Prospectus and the Circular, when published, will be submitted to
the National Storage Mechanism and will shortly thereafter be
available for inspection at:
https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism as well as
on the Company's website at https://www.tritaxeurobox.co.uk. Full
details of the Terms and Conditions of the Issue will be made
available in the Prospectus.

Information to Distributors
Solely for the purposes of the product governance requirements
contained within: (a) EU Directive 2014/65/EU on markets in
financial instruments, as amended ("MiFID II"); (b) Articles 9 and
10 of Commission Delegated Directive (EU) 2017/593 supplementing
MiFID II; (c) local implementing measures within the European
Economic Area; and (d) local implementing measures in the United
Kingdom as they form part of UK domestic law by virtue of the
European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018, as amended, and regulations
made under that Act (together, the "MiFID II Product Governance
Requirements"), and disclaiming all and any liability, whether
arising in tort, contract or otherwise, which any "manufacturer"
(for the purposes of the MiFID II Product Governance Requirements)
may otherwise have with respect thereto, the New Shares have been
subject to a product approval process, which has determined that
the New Shares are: (i) compatible with an end target market of
retail investors and investors who meet the criteria of
professional clients and eligible counterparties, each as defined
in MiFID II; and (ii) eligible for distribution through all
distribution channels as are permitted by MiFID II (the "Target
Market Assessment").
Notwithstanding the Target Market Assessment, distributors
should note that: the price of the New Ordinary Shares may decline
and investors could lose all or part of their investment; the New
Shares offer no guaranteed income and no capital protection; and an
investment in the New Shares is compatible only with investors who
do not need a guaranteed income or capital protection, who (either
alone or in conjunction with an appropriate financial or other
adviser) are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such an
investment and who have sufficient resources to be able to bear any
losses that may result therefrom. The Target Market Assessment is
without prejudice to the requirements of any contractual, legal or
regulatory selling restrictions in relation to the Issue and/or the
Placing Programme. Furthermore, it is noted that, notwithstanding
the Target Market Assessment, the Joint Bookrunners will only
procure investors who meet the criteria of professional clients and
eligible counterparties.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Target Market Assessment does
not constitute: (a) an assessment of suitability or appropriateness
for the purposes of MiFID II; or (b) a recommendation to any
investor or group of investors to invest in, or purchase, or take
any other action whatsoever with respect to the New Ordinary
