INCLUSION HOUSING CIC'S REGULATORY JUDGEMENT

The Board of Social Housing REIT plc (LON: SOHO), is pleased to announce that Inclusion Housing Community Interest Company ("Inclusion") has received a compliant G2 V2 regulatory grading by the Regulator of Social Housing ("RSH").

Inclusion is SOHO's largest lessee, representing approximately 30% of its annual rental income. As of 31 December 2025, Inclusion leases 124 properties from the Company, providing homes for 911 vulnerable adults.

This is a landmark moment for SOHO and the specialised supported housing ("SSH") sector as Inclusion is the first predominantly lease-based housing provider to receive a compliant governance and viability rating by the RSH.

The Board believes this judgement represents a positive development for the sector, providing further evidence that well-managed, lease-based providers can operate successfully within the regulatory framework while continuing to deliver high-quality homes and services for vulnerable residents.

Jos Short, Chair of Social Housing REIT plc, commented:

"We congratulate Inclusion Housing on achieving a compliant G2 V2 grading from the RSH. Inclusion has been a longstanding and valued partner of Social Housing REIT and plays an important role in providing high-quality specialised supported housing for vulnerable adults across the UK."

Michael Carey, Managing Director of Atrato, commented:

"We have an excellent working relationship with Inclusion and we are delighted to see their hard work and high-quality service recognised by the RSH. This outcome reflects the strength of Inclusion's governance, financial management and operational platform. We look forward to continuing our partnership with Inclusion as it delivers much-needed homes and support services for residents."
