Edison issues update on Primary Health Properties (PHP)

Interim results showed Primary Health Properties (PHP) to be well on track to meet its fully covered 6.7p DPS target, the 27th consecutive year of growth. Organic rent growth continues to increase, borrowing costs are nearly all fixed/hedged and the cost ratio is among the lowest in the sector. Despite this, the prospective dividend yield is now c 7%.

Visible, secure and growing income is the core of the PHP investment case. Leases are long and substantially upward-only, 89% backed directly or indirectly by government bodies, with little exposure to the economic cycle or fluctuations in occupancy. The rise in interest rates has driven up the prospective dividend yield to c 7% despite accelerating rent growth underpinning the prospects for further growth in income and dividends.
