Net Asset Value

The unaudited net asset value per share of F&C UK Real Estate Investments Limited (“FCRE”) as at 30 June 2016 was 99.2 pence. This represents an increase of 0.1 per cent from the net asset value per share as at 31 March 2016 of 99.1 pence.

The net asset value is based on the external valuation of the Group's property portfolio prepared by Cushman & Wakefield. The Valuation Certificate explicitly stated as at 30 June 2016:

“that we are in a period of uncertainty following the UK’s decision to exit the EU, including many factors that impact the property investment and letting markets. It has not therefore been possible to gauge the effect of the decision by reference to transactions in the market place and the probability of the valuations exactly coinciding with prices received were the properties to be sold has reduced.”

This Company has a closed ended structure and is not under any pressure to sell properties.

The net asset value is calculated under International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS").

The net asset value includes all income to 30 June 2016 and is calculated after deduction of all dividends paid prior to that date.  It does not include a provision for the dividend for the quarter to 30 June 2016 which is expected to be paid in September 2016.
