Evert Castelein, Fund Manager, Aberdeen Standard Investments, commented:

"The growth witnessed in the Continental European logistics sector in recent years continues unabated, with the current global supply chain issues putting further upward pressures on demand. Coupled with the strong demographic and technological drivers of e-commerce growth, this has underpinned a further consecutive quarter of  portfolio valuation uplifts. Our focus remains on scaling the platform and further diversification to take advantage of these dynamics, whilst accelerating the delivery of our sustainability-led asset management programme which is underpinning our market leading credentials."

Tony Roper, Chairman of the Company, added:

"With the support of both current and new investors, we are evaluating new assets to add to and complement the current portfolio. Shareholders continue to benefit from the Investment Managers access to a highly experienced team of transaction and asset managers on the ground in Europe, which has enabled us to source a near term pipeline that will deliver on our commitment to deploy the recently raised equity proceeds within our stated timeframe."

Performance

The unaudited portfolio valuation increased by €11.4 million, or 2.3%,  (on a like-for-like basis and using the Barcelona purchase price). The Polinyà, Barcelona, urban logistics property valuation was €19.1 million at 30 September 2021, a 2.3% increase over the €18.7 million July 2021 purchase price. Yield compression and high demand for logistics warehousing continues to drive valuations.

For the 12 month period to 30 September 2021, the share price total return (with dividends reinvested) was 8.2% with the Company's net asset value total return over the same period 17.5% in Euro terms (11.4% in sterling terms).

As at 30 September 2021, the Company's share price stood at 111.0p.

Equity cash raise

On 29 September 2021, the Company announced the results of its new share issue, which comprised a Placing, Open Offer and Offer for Subscription as set out in the Company's prospectus published on 8 September 2021.

The issue was oversubscribed with strong support from existing and new investors and a scaling back exercise was undertaken due to the strong investor demand. The Company issued a total of 114.7 million new Ordinary shares, raising gross proceeds of £125 million at the issue price of 109.0 pence per new Ordinary share.

Dealings in the new Ordinary shares commenced after the quarter end on 1 October 2021. Following the issue, the Company's share capital now consists of 377,628,901 Ordinary shares with voting rights.

The Investment Manager is evaluating a pipeline of new potential investments, including exclusive discussions regarding the purchase of an attractive portfolio, which, if concluded, will lead to the majority of the available equity being deployed. Advanced due diligence is underway and the Company hopes to be in a position to provide a further update shortly.
