Triple Point Social Housing REIT plc

(the "Company" or, together with its subsidiaries, the "Group")

INTERIM RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 JUNE 2018

The Board of Triple Point Social Housing REIT plc (ticker: SOHO), the specialist REIT that invests in primarily newly developed social housing assets in the UK (let or pre-let to Approved Providers), with a particular focus on supported housing, today announced the Company's half year results for the six months ended 30 June 2018.

This is the Group's first full six month period to 30 June. Our first audited results related to trading from incorporation on 12 June 2017 to 31 December 2017.

Financial highlights

· The IFRS Net Asset Value ("NAV") and EPRA NAV per share of 101.61 pence at 30 June 2018 (at 31 December 2017: 100.84 pence), an increase of 0.76% in the period. The IFRS NAV per share at IPO was 98.00 pence, an increase of 3.68% to 30 June 2018.

· At the half year end, the portfolio was independently valued at £190.0 million on an IFRS basis, reflecting a valuation uplift of 8.53% against the portfolio's aggregate purchase price (excluding transaction costs).

o The valuation reflects a portfolio yield of 5.32%, against the portfolio's net initial yield at purchase of 5.91% (excluding forward funding transactions).

· The Group's assets were valued at £203.4 million on a portfolio valuation basis, reflecting a portfolio premium of £13.4 million against the IFRS valuation.

o A portfolio valuation basis assumes the portfolio of properties is held in a single Special Purpose Vehicle ("SPV") holding structure, is sold to a third party on arm's length terms and attracts purchaser's costs of 2.3%.

· 3.5 pence per ordinary share: dividends paid or declared to date since IPO.

· The Company is on track to pay an initial total dividend of 5.0 pence per Ordinary Share (in respect of the Company's first full financial year to 31 December 2018) in line with the Company's stated target at launch*.

· The Company intends to increase this target dividend thereafter in line with inflation, at a rate reflecting the CPI-based rent reviews typically contained in the Leases of the assets within the Portfolio*.

· Earnings per share was 3.02 pence for the period.

· The Company raised £47.5 million (£46.5 million net of proceeds) at an issue price of 100 pence per share through a Placing, Open Offer and Offer for Subscription of C shares in March 2018.

· Ongoing Charges ratio of 1.85%.

o Increase largely attributable to the C Shares being treated as a financial liability, not increasing the Net Asset Value, but incurring costs which are included in the ongoing charges calculation. If the Ordinary Shares arising on conversion of the C Shares had been in issue on 30 June 2018, the ongoing charges ratio at 30 June 2018 would be 1.50%.

Operational highlights

· The Group has made further commitments totalling £51.5 million (excluding transaction costs) in relation to the acquisition and development of UK social housing assets as at 30 June 2018.

· During the period to 30 June 2018, the Group acquired 51 new assets.

o Since IPO, the Company has purchased 167 properties with an aggregate net purchase price of £175 million (including costs).

· The majority of the Group's assets are still located in the Midlands and the North of England, however, in the first six months of this year we increased our percentage of assets acquired in the South of England, which has given the portfolio a stronger geographical balance, and we expect this trend to continue for the remainder of 2018.

· As at 30 June 2018, the contracted rental income was £10.4 million per annum.

· 100% of the Group's portfolio was fully let or pre-let and income producing during the period.

· As at 30 June 2018, the Investment Portfolio comprised 1,158 self-contained units, 100 leases with 12 Approved Providers with the weighted average unexpired lease term of 29 years (including put and call options).

· 100% of the contracted rental income is either CPI or RPI linked.

· In March 2018, the Company gained entrance to the FTSE All-Share index and in June we were included in the FTSE EPRA/NAREIT Global Real Estate Index Series.

Post Period Balance Sheet Activity

· An interim dividend in respect of the period 1 April to 30 June 2018 of 1.25 pence per Ordinary Share was declared on 16 August 2018. The Board also declared dividends payable to holders of C Shares comprising a fixed dividend of 3% per annum pro rated for the period from admission to trading on 27 March to 30 August 2018. The dividends will be payable on or around 28 September 2018 to shareholders on the register on 24 August 2018.

· On 30 August 2018, the C Shares converted into Ordinary Shares on the basis of their respective NAV per share on 30 June 2018, adjusted for the dividends payable on 28 September 2018 and the fair value gain on an acquisition by the C Share class that had exchanged by 30 June 2018 but not completed. The effect of these transactions has diluted the NAV after conversion to 101.44 pence.

· The Company has announced the acquisition of 41 supported housing properties, comprising 306 units in total, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately £46.9 million (excluding costs) as at 13 September 2018¹.

· The Company has entered into a long dated, fixed rate, interest only financing arrangement for an amount of £68.5 million with a US life insurance company. The loan notes represent a loan-to-value of 40% of the value of the secured pool of assets and have a weighted duration of 12 years and a blended coupon of 3.039%.

o This is in line with the Company's investment policy and debt strategy of securing low loan-to-value, long-dated debt to capitalise on the low interest rate environment in order to enhance shareholders' returns.

o The debt facility is the first of a planned debt funding programme designed to support the Group's continued growth. The Group intends to utilise the debt proceeds to fund an extensive pipeline of further acquisitions in the second half of 2018.

· The Investment Manager has access to a significant pipeline of potential investments and is currently engaged in discussions with various parties (including Approved Providers and developers) in relation to a number of assets that meet the Company's investment criteria and on terms the Investment Manager considers attractive to the Company.

· The Company expects to have substantially invested or committed the proceeds of its recent debt raise (announced on 23 July 2018) by the end of October and therefore intends to undertake a further issue of equity by way of a placing, open offer and offer for subscription shortly. The Company expects to publish a prospectus in connection with the issue in September.

¹ This includes the completion of the acquisition of TPHSIL for a total commitment of £24.1 million.

* These are targets only and not a profit forecast and there can be no assurance that they will be met.

Christopher Phillips, Chairman of Triple Point Social Housing REIT plc, commented:

"The outlook is positive and we expect the strong performance of the first half of 2018 to continue into the next six months of this year. We have identified, predominantly through our existing developer relationships, a strong pipeline of properties in line with our investment strategy. While a number of assets will be turned down as a result of our established due diligence process, which focuses on asset and lessee quality, we are confident our pipeline and deal flow will be sufficient to meet or exceed our deployment targets.

The market fundamentals remain strong and are demonstrated by stark undersupply and strong central and local government support for Supported Housing. We are therefore optimistic about the performance of our existing portfolio and our ability to deliver on the pipeline of assets that have already been identified for 2018."

NOTES:

The Company invests in primarily newly developed social housing assets in the UK, with a particular focus on supported housing. The assets within the portfolio are subject to inflation-adjusted, long-term (typically from 20 years to 30 years), Fully Repairing and Insuring ("FRI") leases with Approved Providers (being Housing Associations, Local Authorities or other regulated organisations in receipt of direct payment from local government). The portfolio comprises investments into properties which are already subject to an FRI lease with an Approved Provider, as well as forward funding of pre-let developments but does not include any direct development or speculative development.

There is increasing political and financial pressure on Housing Associations to increase their housing delivery and this is creating opportunities for private sector investors to participate in the market. The Group's ability to provide forward financing for new developments not only enables the Company to secure fit for purpose, modern assets for its portfolio but also addresses the chronic undersupply of suitable supported housing properties in the UK at sustainable rents as well as delivering returns to investors.

Triple Point Investment Management LLP (part of the Triple Point Group) is responsible for management of the Group's portfolio (with such functions having been delegated to it by Langham Hall Fund Management LLP, the Company's alternative investment fund manager).

The Company was admitted to trading on the Specialist Fund Segment of the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange on 8 August 2017 and was admitted to the premium segment of the Official List of the Financial Conduct Authority and migrated to trading on the premium segment of the Main Market on 27 March 2018. The Company operates as a UK Real Estate Investment Trust ("REIT") and is a constituent of the FTSE EPRA/NAREIT index.

A Company presentation to analysts and investors will be held at 9.00am today at:

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

The Group made good progress in the first half of 2018. The strong relationships that we have established with a number of developers has, up to 30 June 2018, enabled us to acquire a total of £46.4 million¹of recently developed properties and development sites across the UK. We continue to benefit from strong local authority demand for Supported Housing which is driven by the cost savings and enhanced living opportunities that our homes can offer tenants relative to traditional alternatives such as residential or inpatient care.

In addition to deploying £46.4 million in the period, as at 30 June 2018 the Group had made further commitments totalling £51.5 million in relation to the acquisition and development of UK social housing assets. These commitments include £24.1 million resulting from the exchange of contracts on the acquisition of TPSHIL and £27.4 million of other exchanges and forward funding transactions.

In March 2018 the Company moved up from the Specialist Fund Segment to the Premium Segment of the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange and was admitted to the Official List. At the same time, the Company raised £47.5 million (£46.5 million net proceeds) of additional capital through a C Share issue.

By the end of June 2018, we had successfully invested or committed over 90% of the net proceeds of the C Share placing triggering the calculation date for the purposes of conversion of the C Shares. Commitments included, for these purposes, an amount of £24.1 million in relation to the acquisition of TPSHIL, a portfolio of 18 Supported Housing assets, which we acquired from the Triple Point Group and exchanged contracts on 22 June 2018, subject to shareholder approval as a related party transaction. Approval was received and the transaction completed on 13 July 2018. The C Shares converted on 30 August 2018.

Over the past six months, we have focused on our relationships with developers of high quality supported living properties. These relationships give us access to allocated future pipelines of newly developed and renovated Supported Housing properties. Our developer relationships have ensured that we can successfully deploy funds into a pool of high-quality, diversified assets and developers continue to provide us with strong deployment prospects for the future. Predominantly we have acquired newly constructed, recently renovated properties that were subject to a lease with an Approved Provider counterparty who has been subject to our due diligence process. In this way, we acquired Meadowhurst Gardens which is leased to Inclusion Housing and which helps individuals with learning disabilities live more independently, and Bold Street, which is leased to My Space Housing Solutions and which assisted in alleviating the undersupply of housing for people with complex mental health needs in Warrington.

We also entered into our first forward funding transactions in the period. We have acquired and commenced work on our first site in Bradford in January and since then have acquired a further seven forward funding sites, totalling eight forward funding transactions completed by the Group in the period. Forward funding is an integral part of the Company's investment strategy providing the Group access to high quality assets at attractive yields.

Being able to provide forward funding enables us to acquire new build assets that have been designed in conjunction with Approved Providers and local authorities to meet specified local demand. This gives us access to high quality assets while strengthening our relationships with local authorities, Approved Providers and developers - providing a competitive advantage over our peer group.

Deployment

In the first half of 2018, we acquired 51 assets at a total investment cost of £46.4 million² adding 1 new Approved Provider. Our portfolio is well diversified by geography and Approved Provider.

Since the half year end, we continued to acquire high quality social housing properties and at 13 September 2018 had deployed a further £49.3 million which included £23.9 million of committed funds as at 30 June 2018. Consequently, we have made good progress with deploying the proceeds of our recent debt raise, which I discuss further below.

The 167 assets we had acquired by 30 June 2018 have the capacity to house 1,158 tenants, are leased to 12 Approved Providers, are located in 69 different local authorities and are serviced by 34 care providers. The portfolio at 30 June 2018 benefited from a weighted average unexpired lease term of 29.0 years. Since 30 June 2018, the 41 assets the Group has acquired house 306 tenants.

After deploying our capital, we continue to maintain a close relationship with our Approved Provider lessees. This relationship involves regular meetings, site visits and the receipt of key management information.

Investment Performance

We continue to benefit from the Investment Manager's strong network of counterparties, from developers to local authorities and Approved Providers. Through its network, we have been able to source the majority of our properties off-market and at attractive yields. The Investment Manager's capital discipline manifests itself through its diligence process. Before completing an acquisition, it scrutinises properties and developers in a comprehensive and timely manner, ensuring that the assets we acquire are of high build quality and enjoy robust occupant demand. This means, now and in the longer term, the Group will possess a high quality portfolio of attractive, occupied assets.

In the current market environment, investors have demonstrated that there is appetite for companies that offer reduced risk and secure inflation-linked income. Since IPO, we have deployed funds into property investments that are subject to long leases with upwards-only, inflation-linked rent reviews. The lessees are Approved Providers who receive funding for the rent due directly from local government.

Share Price

In March, the Company became eligible for inclusion in the FTSE Indices as it moved up to the Premium Segment of the Main Market. It became a constituent of the FTSE All-Share Index in March and in June we were included in the FTSE EPRA/NAREIT Global Real Estate Index Series. We have enjoyed strong share price performance, with our shares trading at a sustained premium to IFRS NAV.

Financial Results

At the half year end, the portfolio was independently valued at £190.0 million on an IFRS basis, reflecting a valuation uplift of 8.53% against the portfolio's aggregate purchase price (excluding transaction costs). The valuation reflects a portfolio yield of 5.32%, against the portfolio's blended net initial yield at purchase of 5.91% (excluding forward funding transactions).

The Group's assets were valued at £203.4 million on a portfolio valuation basis, reflecting a portfolio premium of £13.4 million against the IFRS valuation. A portfolio valuation basis assumes the portfolio of properties is held in a single SPV holding structure, is sold to a third party on arm's length terms and attracts purchaser's costs of 2.30%.

The audited IFRS NAV per Ordinary Share was 101.61 pence, which has increased since IPO by 3.68%.

Dividends

The Group has paid dividends totalling 2.25 pence per Ordinary Share since IPO. An interim dividend of 1.25 pence per Ordinary Share in respect of the period 1 April to 30 June 2018 was declared on 16 August 2018. The Board also declared dividends payable to holders of C Shares comprising a fixed dividend of 3% per annum prorated for the period from admission to trading on 27 March to 30 August 2018. The Ordinary Share and C Share dividends will be payable on 28 September 2018 to shareholders on the register on 30 August 2018 (being the date on which the C Shares were converted into Ordinary Shares). The Group intends to continue paying four equally weighted interim dividends in respect of the preceding quarter in each of June, September, December and March for future years. The target dividend for the year to 31 December 2018 is 5 pence per Ordinary Share.

Loan Financing

Shortly after the end of the half year, in July 2018, the Company successfully completed its first debt financing, undertaking a private placement of £68.5 million of loan notes with a major US life insurance company. The Company raised £68.5 million of debt, secured against a specific pool of Supported Housing assets acquired by the Group in the period from August 2017 to the end of March 2018. The loan notes are split into two tranches, a 10 and a 15-year tranche. The fixed rate coupon of the 10 and 15-year tranches are 2.924% and 3.215%, respectively. On a blended basis, the weighted average term is 12 years with an average fixed rate coupon of 3.039%.

The debt arrangement represents a loan-to-value of 40% of the reported £172.0 million market value of the secured assets. This is in line with the Company's investment policy and debt strategy of securing low loan-to-value, long-dated debt to capitalise on the low interest rate environment in order to enhance shareholder returns.

The fixed rate loan note issuance is the first of a planned debt funding programme designed to support the Group's continued growth. The Group intends to utilise the debt proceeds to fund an extensive pipeline of further acquisitions in the second half of 2018.

Further Capital Raising

The Investment Manager has access to a significant pipeline of potential investments and is currently engaged in discussions with various parties (including Approved Providers and developers) in relation to a number of assets that meet the Company's investment criteria and on terms the Investment Manager considers attractive to the Company.

The Company expects to have substantially invested or committed the proceeds of its recent debt raise (announced on 23 July 2018) by the end of October and therefore intends to undertake a further issue of equity by way of a placing, open offer and offer for subscription shortly. The Company expects to publish a prospectus in connection with the issue in September.

Investment Manager

The Board and the Investment Manager, Triple Point Investment Management LLP, work closely together, meeting regularly to discuss developments in the Group and the market. We will continue this approach going forward to help maintain the efficient and effective management of the Group. During the period the Investment Manager further deepened the long-standing relationships with developers from whom we have previously purchased and continued to implement a disciplined policy focused on quality opportunities and rejecting those that failed to meet our rigorous criteria. The Board is grateful for the continued hard work and support of the Investment Manager.

Social Impact

By working with developers to bring new Supported Housing properties to market, the Group is helping to resolve the chronic social housing shortage currently prevalent across the UK. The types of tenants that are housed in properties owned by the Group include people with mental health problems, autism, learning disabilities and physical and sensory impairments. The Supported Housing homes provided to these tenants typically provide individuals with the opportunity for a better quality of life whilst coming at a lower cost to local authorities than alternatives such as residential care.

The Group is committed to the important social aim of helping to provide more and appropriate accommodation to some of the most vulnerable in society such that they can aspire to live more autonomously in local communities. At the same time, our consistent, high-quality approach to due diligence and development, combined with significant investment in the sector, is helping to drive quality in constructors and developers in the Supported Housing space.

Outlook

The outlook is positive and we expect the strong performance of the first half of 2018 to continue into the next six months of this year. We have identified, predominantly through our existing developer relationships, a strong pipeline of properties in line with our investment strategy. While a number of assets will be turned down as a result of our established due diligence process, which focuses on asset and lessee quality, we are confident our pipeline and deal flow will be sufficient to meet or exceed our deployment targets.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank my fellow board members for their support and commitment in the first half of the year, and to all shareholders for your continued support.

INVESTMENT MANAGER'S REPORT

In 2018, we continued to implement the Group's strategy of focusing on investing in good quality Supported Housing properties. In the first quarter of 2018, we completed the deployment of the IPO proceeds within the target deployment period of nine months from listing. By the end of June, we had successfully invested or committed 90% of the net proceeds of the C Share issue which triggered the process for conversion of the C Shares to Ordinary Shares on 30 August 2018. We are pleased that the Company was able to report an IFRS NAV per share of 101.61 pence at 30 June 2018, a 3.68% increase since IPO.

During the period to 30 June 2018, the Group acquired 51 assets. All assets are fit for purpose, sustainable and benefit from strong local authority support. We have also rejected a number of deals that fell within the Company's investment strategy but were not deemed to be of sufficiently high quality to warrant investment. The assets acquired by the Group all benefit from inflation-linked, fully repairing and insuring long term leases (typically 20 to 30 years) to expert housing managers (usually Registered Providers). The properties are leased to a diversified range of 12 Approved Providers, who have different areas of geographical focus and expertise.

In addition to the strong pipeline of assets acquired over the period, we are pleased that the Group secured its first long-term debt financing. This loan financing, at a competitive all-in fixed interest rate of 3.039%, a 40% loan-to-value and an average term of 12 years, is a demonstration of the quality of the Group's portfolio and the Group's ability to attract high-quality, long-term lenders to the market.

The majority of the Group's assets are located in the Midlands and the North of England, however, in the first six months of this year we have increased our percentage of assets acquired in the South of England, which has given the portfolio a stronger geographical balance, and we expect this trend to continue for the remainder of 2018. Most of the assets we have acquired in 2018 have been purchased from developers with whom we have a long-standing relationship. By working closely with a stable of high calibre developers, we have been able to build up a strong pipeline of deals that, subject to the completion of satisfactory due diligence and agreement on pricing and terms, we expect to be able to acquire for the Group. Currently, we have visibility of a pipeline of deal flow with an aggregate value of over £400 million, which we expect to be able to close in the next 12 months. All potential acquisitions remain subject to our exacting due diligence process and pricing analysis to ensure that the Group only acquires high quality assets that will provide robust, sustainable returns for shareholders in the longer term.

Market Review

Over the period, the well-documented mismatch between supply and demand in the UK social housing market has continued to persist. In the Supported Housing sector, this mismatch is particularly acute, with the National Housing Federation predicting the shortfall in Supported Housing assets to increase 86% from 2015 to 2020. On top of this, an increasing number of people in the UK are finding themselves priced out of both the private rental and property ownership markets which, combined with a growing population, is creating considerable demand for social housing assets.

The UK's "housing crisis" continues to be fuelled by the inability to meet national (private and public) new house building targets. In the Supported Housing sector, demand for new homes is expected to increase by 30% by 2030 and, in particular, demand for housing from those with learning disabilities is expected to increase 55% over the same period. Against this backdrop, the Group's aim of funding high quality Supported Housing assets is well-placed.

Although there is now an upward trend in new house completions in the UK and the government has recently announced that additional funding will be made available to fund new social housing developments, as of April 2017 there were 1.16 million households on social housing waiting lists and, in 2016 - 2017, few more than 160,000 new homes were built against an estimated requirement of 300,000.

The impact of insufficient social housing supply is exacerbated by demand in the Supported Housing market. Demand for assets is two-fold. Firstly, improvements in healthcare are increasing the number of people requiring long-term accommodation adapted to provide care services. Secondly, following the 2012 Winterborne View care home scandal, the UK Government introduced the Care Act 2014. This placed a statutory obligation on local authorities to house people needing care in independent living situations based in communities where possible (as opposed to providing in-patient or institutional care). In light of these developments, not only do local authorities have more people needing care, but they also have a responsibility to rehouse people already receiving care in more suitable accommodation of the sort provided by the Group's Supported Housing assets.

Alongside the supply and demand issues, local authorities are facing widely reported regulatory and downward cost pressures. These are incentivising local authorities to find creative, high-quality and cost-effective housing solutions for those for whom they are responsible. Supported Housing assets provide part of this solution.

Supported Housing is compelling not only due to the quality of life it can afford occupants, but also because of the potential cost savings for local authorities. Research recently commissioned by Mencap (a leading UK charity for people with learning disabilities) showed that demand for new Supported Housing properties is expected to grow over the next ten years. The report found that it costs on average £1,596 per week to house and care for a person with learning disabilities living in Supported Housing, compared with £1,760 per week for a residential care placement and £3,500 per week for inpatient care. This is further substantiated by a 2017 government report showing that, in that year, local authorities received 135,950 requests for community care support - which consists of home care, supported living and other long-term care. Such demand meant that the area in which local authorities saw the largest increase in expenditure was "Long Term" support, which increased by £539.0 million to £13.6 billion in 2016-17. Community care accounted for 46% of this total.

The Group works closely with specialist Supported Housing Approved Providers who are seeking to meet housing demand in the Supported Housing sector. These Approved Providers are increasing their assets under management in order to achieve scale, to better leverage expertise and efficiencies in order to help vulnerable people who cannot meet their housing needs in the private market. These Approved Providers look to the Group to fund the development of new social housing assets, given insufficient or inaccessible grant funding. After funding an asset, an Approved Provider enters into a long lease with the Group in respect of that property, the income of which contributes to shareholders' long-term index-linked returns.

Regulatory Oversight

The Investment Manager undertakes thorough due diligence on any Registered Provider before the Group enters into a lease, with the intention of contracting only with counterparties of a sufficiently high quality. All of the Registered Providers with whom the Group has leases are regulated by the Regulator of Social Housing ("the Regulator").

Registered Providers are subject to a detailed in-depth assessment ("IDA") by the Regulator within three years of passing through the 1,000 units under management barrier. The IDA assesses the Registered Provider's compliance with the requirements of the Governance and Financial Viability Standard. Each IDA is a bespoke piece of work and will consider in detail a provider's viability (its ability to meet financial obligations), its approach to value for money and its governance. The IDA is likely to encompass assessment of risk profiles, exposures, financial strengths and weaknesses, governance and the delivery of value for money in the broadest sense. The outcome of an IDA results in the Regulator publishing a formal grading (V 1-4 for Viability and G 1-4 for Governance), known as a regulatory judgement.

Most of the Registered Providers with whom the Group has leases specialise in providing Supported Housing accommodation and currently have less than 1,000 units under management, which means that they have historically been subject to a lower level of regulation than the IDA regime applicable to larger Registered Providers. However, the Group has leases with a number of Registered Providers who are close to progressing through the threshold of 1,000 units under management and who the Group therefore expects to be the subject of an IDA in due course. The Group and the Investment Manager see this as a positive for these Registered Providers due to the increased accountability and higher degree of transparency which it will bring.

The Regulator seeks to work closely with a Registered Provider that is failing to meet any aspect of the Governance and Financial Viability Standard, with a view to remedying the issue as soon as possible in a manner which protects the integrity of the Social Housing regime. The recent case of First Priority Housing Association Limited ("FPHA"), a Registered Provider with whom the Group has no leases, offers an example of this collaborative approach to regulation. In February 2018, the Regulator issued a Regulatory Notice stating that it had been approached by FPHA and that, following a review, it appeared that FPHA did not have the financial capacity to meet its debts as they fell due. As FPHA had fewer than 1,000 units at its last regulatory submission, the Regulator had not yet published a regulatory judgement on FPHA, so published the Regulatory Notice instead. The Regulator worked with FPHA to understand its financial position, to strengthen its board and to secure the long-term future of the 227 individual properties leased and managed by FPHA. On 9 May 2018, one of FPHA's landlords, Civitas Social Housing Plc, announced that all of its leases with FPHA had been assigned on the same terms to another Registered Provider and, over the course of the following two months, a large portion of the remaining leases were transferred away from FPHA to other Registered Providers. Finally, on 17 July 2018, FPHA entered into a Company Voluntary Arrangement with its remaining creditors. Whilst the Group did not have any exposure to FPHA this provides a recent example of the Regulator facilitating the management of Approved Providers entering into financial difficulties.

Financial Review

As at 30 June 2018, the annualised rental income of the Group was £10.4 million (excluding forward funding transactions). The Group is a UK REIT for tax purposes and is exempt from corporation tax on its property rental business.

The fair value gain of £3.3 million was recognised during the period on the revaluation of the Group's properties.

Earnings per share was 3.02 pence for the period³, compared to 3.94 pence for the period ending 31 December 2017⁴ calculated on the weighted average number of shares in issue during the period. Adjusted earnings per share were 9.38 pence for the period, where post-tax earnings were adjusted for a valuation on a portfolio basis (as opposed to individual asset) IFRS basis.

The IFRS NAV per share was 101.61 pence, which has increased since IPO by 3.68%. The EPRA NAV per share and the IFRS NAV per share were equivalent for the period. The IFRS NAV adjusted for the portfolio valuation (including portfolio premium) was £215.9 million, which equates to a Portfolio NAV of 107.97 pence per share.

The ongoing charges ratio is calculated as a percentage of the average net asset value for the period under review. The ongoing charges ratio for the period is 1.85%. This increase is in large part attributable to the fact that the C Shares issued during the period are not deemed to have increased the average net asset value as they are treated as a financial liability prior to conversion. However, the costs associated with the C Shares are included in the ongoing charges calculation. If the Ordinary Shares arising on conversion of the C Shares had been in issue on 30 June 2018, the ongoing charges ratio at 30 June 2018 would be 1.50%.

At the period end, the portfolio was independently valued at £190.0 million on an IFRS basis, reflecting a valuation uplift of 8.53% against the portfolio's aggregate purchase price (excluding transaction costs). The valuation reflects a portfolio yield of 5.32%, against the portfolio's blended net initial yield of 5.91%. This yield arbitrage of 59 basis points implies a purchase-to-valuation margin of 11.1%, underpinning the quality of the Group's asset selection and acquisition process.

The Group's properties were valued at £203.4 million on a portfolio valuation basis, reflecting a portfolio premium of £13.4 million against the IFRS valuation. A portfolio valuation basis assumes the portfolio of properties is held in a single SPV holding structure, is sold to a third party on arm's length terms and attracts purchaser's costs of 2.3%.

Continued Strategic Alignment and Asset Selection

In the first half of 2018, the Group has continued to execute its investment strategy, delivering inflation-protected income underpinned by a careful asset selection of secure, long-let and index-linked properties. During this period, the Group purchased 51 assets which included its first series of forward funding transactions. For the standing investments, the aggregate net purchase prices were £46.4 million.

# of Assets	2017 Q4 116	2018 Q2 167	CHANGE +51
# of Leases	65	100	+35

# of APs	11	12	+1
# of FFAs	0	8	+8
WAULT	30.6 years	29.0 years	-1.6 years

In addition, the Group has made further commitments totalling £51.5 million (excluding transaction costs) in relation to the acquisition and development of UK social housing assets as at 30 June 2018. These commitments include £24.1 million resulting from the exchange of contracts on the acquisition of TPSHIL and £27.4 million of other exchanges and forward funding transactions.

Property Portfolio

As at 30 June 2018, the property portfolio comprised 167 assets with 1,158 units and showed a broad geographic diversification across the UK. The 3 largest concentrated areas were the North West (31.2%), West Midlands (16.6%) and the North East (16.5%). The fair value of the property portfolio is £190.0 million (an average of £1.1 million per property).

During the first half of 2018, the Group committed to its first series of forward funding transactions. Forward funding forms an integral part of the Group's investment strategy, adding significant value-add to the property portfolio. A total of 8 forward funding transactions have been signed with various lease start dates following build programmes of up to 12 months and with an aggregate funding commitment of £8.1 million.

Rental Income

As at 30 June 2018, the property portfolio is fully let with the assets either being let or pre-let on completion, comprising 100 fully repairing and insuring leases which includes the current forward funding transactions. The total annualised rental income of £10.4 million solely accounts for the aggregate rental income of the standing investments.

In the first half 2018, the Group has further diversified its tenant base by adding one additional Approved Provider to the portfolio; Encircle Housing. Another Approved Provider, Care Housing Association, has entered into an Agreement for Lease on a Forward Funding acquisition which is expected to be producing rental income in early 2019. With the Group having entered into active leases with 12 Approved Providers, the Group's tenant base is well diversified across the sector with some of the most desired UK housing associations. Our three largest Approved Providers by rental income were Inclusion Housing (24.7%), My Space Housing Solutions (19.4%) and Falcon Housing Association (16.0%).

Our three largest Approved Providers by units were My Space Housing Solutions (259), Inclusion Housing (226) and Falcon Housing Association (190).

As at 30 June 2018, the property portfolio had a WAULT of 29.0 years, with 81.3% of the portfolio's rental income showing an unexpired lease term of between 21-30 years. Compared with Q4 2017, the WAULT has shortened slightly by 1.6 years as the majority of additions in the reporting period showed a lease term certain of 25 years. The WAULT includes the initial lease term upon completion as well as any reversionary leases and/or put and call options available to the Group at expiry.

Income by Lease Length

Rents under the leases are indexed against either CPI (82.3% of the 30 June 2018 portfolio) or RPI (17.7% of the 30 June 2018 portfolio), which provides investors the security that the rental income is in line with inflation. For the purposes of the portfolio valuation, Jones Lang LaSalle assumed CPI and RPI to increase at 2.0% per annum and 2.5% per annum respectively over the term of the relevant leases.

As at 30 June 2018, the total rent passing was £10.4 million (excluding forward funding transactions)⁵. In this reporting period, there were 28 leases which benefited from a rental uplift linked to CPI/RPI, equating to a total rental value increase of approximately £91,000 more than the initially contracted rent.

Pipeline and Outlook

Since IPO, the Group has benefited from demand for new Supported Housing assets and the reliance of specialist Supported Housing Approved Providers on private funders such as the Company to help fund new developments. This has enabled the Group to build up a strong pipeline over the next 12 months. The pipeline has principally been developed through our relationships with a number of high quality developers of Supported Housing assets. The developers, in conjunction with local authorities, care providers and Approved Providers, have identified where the need for more Supported Housing assets is most acute and have continued to develop new Supported Housing assets in these areas. It is these assets that make up the majority of the pipeline.

The properties in the pipeline are at various stages of development. For example, some may require planning permission, some are still at the design stage and some are nearly ready to be acquired by the Group. It is important to note that the Group will only acquire an asset when a lease with an Approved Provider is in place or, in the case of forward funding, when the assets are pre-let to an Approved Provider. Nearly all of the properties that the Group intends to acquire from developers in 2018 and 2019 are off market, as they are expected to be sold directly to the Group without being marketed to other funds.

While the focus has been on working with developers, the Group has also acquired portfolios of assets. Some of these portfolios were off market and some were marketed to a limited number of funders. The Group does not tend to participate in large auction processes. We will continue to look at portfolios of assets opportunistically although we do not generally include portfolios in pipeline calculations.

Portfolio acquisitions tend to be more opportunistic (and therefore harder to predict) and if they become competitive processes the probability of successfully completing the acquisition is considerably lower than for deals that come through our developer pipelines.

The Group's future pipeline, like its current portfolio, has a good geographical spread. As such, the Group should maintain a balanced, diverse portfolio into the future. In addition, the pipeline should enable the Group to broaden the range of Approved Providers that it works with. This, in turn, should lead to additional opportunities to fund Supported Housing assets in 2018, 2019 and beyond.

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS

In order to track the Group's progress the following key performance indicators are monitored:

1. ORDINARY SHARE DIVIDEND

KPI AND DEFINITION	RELEVANCE TO STRATEGY	PERFORMANCE	COMMENT
Dividends paid to shareholders and declared in relation to the period.	The dividend reflects the Company's ability to deliver a low risk but growing income stream from the portfolio.	Dividends paid or declared for the period 1 January 2018 to 30 June 2018 were 2.5 pence per Ordinary Share.	The Company declared a dividend of 1.25 pence per Ordinary Share in respect of the period 1 April 2018 to 30 June 2018, payable on 28 September 2018, which is in line with the Company's target.

2. IFRS NAV PER SHARE

KPI AND DEFINITION	RELEVANCE TO STRATEGY	PERFORMANCE	COMMENT
The value of our assets (based on an independent valuation) less the book value of our liabilities, attributable to shareholders.	The IFRS NAV reflects our ability to grow the portfolio and to add value to it throughout the life cycle of our assets.	101.61 pence at 30 June 2018.	The IFRS NAV per share at 31 December 2017 was 100.84 pence. This is an increase of 0.76% since 31 December 2017 driven by growth in the underlying asset value of the investment properties.

3. LOAN TO GAV

KPI AND DEFINITION	RELEVANCE TO STRATEGY	PERFORMANCE	COMMENT
It is envisaged that a proportion of our investment portfolio is funded by borrowings. Our medium to long term target. Loan to GAV is 40% with a hard cap of 50%.	The Company will seek to use gearing to enhance equity returns.	0.0% at 30 June 2018.	Although no gearing is in place as of 30 June 2018, appropriate gearing has been introduced since the period end.

4. EARNINGS PER SHARE

KPI AND DEFINITION	RELEVANCE TO STRATEGY	PERFORMANCE	COMMENT
The post-tax earnings generated that are attributable to shareholders.	The EPS reflects our ability to generate earnings from our portfolio including valuation increases.	3.02 pence per share for the six month period to 30 June 2018.	The outlook remains positive and we continue to invest to generate an attractive total return.

5. ADJUSTED EARNINGS PER SHARE

KPI AND DEFINITION	RELEVANCE TO STRATEGY	PERFORMANCE	COMMENT
The post-tax earnings adjusted for the market portfolio valuation including portfolio premium.	The Adjusted EPS reflects the application of using the portfolio value.	9.38 pence per share for the period to 30 June 2018.	The Adjusted EPS shows the value per share on a long-term basis.

6. WEIGHTED AVERAGE UNEXPIRED LEASE TERM (WAULT)

KPI AND DEFINITION	RELEVANCE TO STRATEGY	PERFORMANCE	COMMENT
The average unexpired lease term of the investment portfolio, weighted by annual passing rents. Our target is a WAULT of at least 15 years.	The WAULT is a key measure of the quality of our portfolio. Long lease terms underpin the security of our income stream.	29 years at 30 June 2018 (includes put and call options).	As at 30 June 2018, the portfolio's WAULT stood at 29 years and remains ahead of the Group's minimum term of 15 years.

7. PORTFOLIO NET ASSET VALUE

KPI AND DEFINITION	RELEVANCE TO STRATEGY	PERFORMANCE	COMMENT
The IFRS NAV adjusted for the market portfolio valuation including portfolio premium.	The Portfolio NAV measure is to highlight the fair value of net assets on an ongoing, longterm basis.	The Portfolio Net Assets of £215.9 million equates to a Portfolio NAV of 107.97 pence per Ordinary Share.	The Portfolio NAV per share shows a good market growth in the underlying asset value of the investment properties.

8. EXPOSURE TO LARGEST APPROVED PROVIDER

KPI AND DEFINITION	RELEVANCE TO STRATEGY	PERFORMANCE	COMMENT
The percentage of the Group's gross assets that are leased to the single largest Approved Provider.	The exposure to the largest Approved Provider must be monitored to ensure that we are not overly exposed to one Approved Provider in the event of a default scenario.	19.40%.	Our target is lower than 25%. We are materially below our maximum exposure target with our largest Approved Provider, Inclusion Housing.

EPRA PERFORMANCE MEASURES

The table below shows additional performance measures, calculated in accordance with the Best Practices

Recommendations of the European Public Real Estate Association ("EPRA"). We provide these measures to aid comparison with other European real estate businesses.

1. EPRA EARNINGS PER SHARE

KPI AND DEFINITION

PURPOSE

PERFORMANCE

EPRA Earnings per share excludes gains from fair value adjustment on investment property that are included in the IFRS calculation for Earnings per share.

A measure of a Group's underlying operating results and an indication of the extent to which current dividend payments are supported by earnings.

1.39 pence per share for the period to 30 June 2018.

0.02 pence per share for the period to 31 December 2017.

As the Company is currently in ramp up phase to full investment (including debt at 40%) and undertaking forward fundings there will be a lag in the Company's ability to fully cover dividends. Our priority remains to achieve a fully covered dividend from operations.

2. EPRA NAV PER SHARE

KPI AND DEFINITION

PURPOSE

PERFORMANCE

EPRA NAV makes certain adjustments to IFRS NAV to exclude items not expected to crystallise in a long-term investment property business model. As at 30 June 2018 both the EPRA NAV and the IFRS NAV are equivalent.

Provides stakeholders with the most relevant information on the fair value of the assets and liabilities within a true real estate investment company with a long-term investment strategy.

£249.9 million/

101.61 pence per share. £201.7 million/ 100.84 pence per share as at 31 December 2017.

3. EPRA NET INITIAL YIELD (NIY)

KPI AND DEFINITION	PURPOSE	PERFORMANCE
Annualised rental income based on the cash rents passing at the balance sheet date, less non-recoverable property operating expenses, divided by the market value of the property, increased with (estimated) purchasers' costs.	A comparable measure for portfolio valuations. This measure should make it easier for investors to judge for themselves how the valuation of a portfolio compares with others.	5.14% at 30 June 2018. 4.26% at 31 December 2017.

4. EPRA "TOPPED-UP" NIY

KPI AND DEFINITION	PURPOSE	PERFORMANCE
This measure incorporates an adjustment to the EPRA NIY in respect of the expiration of rent-free periods (or other unexpired lease incentives such as discounted rent periods and step rents).	The topped-up net initial yield is useful in that it allows investors to see the yield based on the full rent that is contracted at 30 June 2018.	5.32% at 30 June 2018. 5.32% at 31 December 2017.

5. EPRA VACANCY RATE

KPI AND DEFINITION	PURPOSE	PERFORMANCE
Estimated Market Rental Value (ERV) of vacant space divided by ERV of the whole portfolio.	A 'pure' percentage measure of investment property space that is vacant, based on ERV 0.00% at 30 June 2018.	0.00% at 30 June 2018. 0.00% as at 31 December 2017.

PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Board has overall responsibility for the Group's risk management and internal controls, with the audit committee reviewing the effectiveness of the Group's risk management process on its behalf.

The principal risks and uncertainties we face are described in detail in our Annual Report for the period ended 31 December 2017.

The identified risks have the potential to materially affect our business, either favourably or unfavourably. Some risks may currently be unknown, while others that we currently regard as immaterial, and have therefore not been included here, may turn out to be material in the future.

RISK CATEGORY: FINANCIAL

Expensive or lack of debt finance may limit our ability to grow

RISK IMPACT

RISK MITIGATION

IMPACT

LIKELIHOOD

Without sufficient debt funding at sustainable rates, we will be unable to pursue suitable investments in line with our Investment Policy. This would significantly impair our ability to pay dividends to shareholders at the targeted rate.

When raising debt finance the Investment Manager adopts a flexible approach involving speaking to multiple funders offering various rates, structures and tenors. Doing this allows the Investment Manager to maintain maximum competitive tension between funders. After proceeding with a funder, the Investment Manager agrees heads of terms early in the process to ensure a streamlined, transparent fund-raising process. The Board also keeps our liquidity under constant review and we will always aim to have headroom in our debt facilities ensuring that we have a level of protection in the event of adverse fund-raising conditions.

Moderate

Low

RISK CATEGORY: PROPERTY

Default of one or more Approved Provider lessees

RISK IMPACT	RISK MITIGATION	IMPACT	LIKELIHOOD
The default of one or more of our lessees could impact the revenue gained from relevant assets. If the lessee cannot remedy the default or no support is offered to the lessee by the Regulator of Social Housing, we may have to terminate or negotiate the lease, meaning a sustained reduction in revenues while a replacement is found.	Under the terms of our Investment Policy and restrictions, no more than 30% of the Group's gross asset value may be exposed to one lessee, meaning the risk of significant rent loss is low. The lessees are predominantly regulated by the Regulator of Social Housing, meaning that, if a lessee was to suffer financial difficulty, it is likely that the Regulator of Social Housing would assist in making alternative arrangements to ensure continuity for residents who are vulnerable members of the community.	Low to Moderate	Low

RISK CATEGORY: PROPERTY

Forward-funding properties involves a higher degree of risk than that associated with completed investments

RISK IMPACT

RISK MITIGATION

IMPACT

LIKELIHOOD

Our forward funded developments are likely to involve a higher degree of risk than is associated with standing investments. This could include general construction risks, delays in the development or the development not being completed, cost overruns or developer/ contractor default. If any of the risks associated with our forward funded developments materialised, this could reduce the value of these assets and our portfolio.

Before entering into any forward funding arrangements, the Investment Manager undertakes substantial due diligence on developers and their main subcontractors, ensuring they have a strong track record. We enter into contracts on a fixed price basis and then, during the development work, we defer development profit until work has been completed and audited by a chartered surveyor. Further, less than 10% of our portfolio is forward-funded at present and we are limited by our Investment Policy which restricts us to forward funding a maximum of 20% of the Group's net asset value at any one time. Ultimately, with these mitigating factors in place, the flexibility to forward fund allows us to acquire assets and opportunities which will provide prime revenues in future years.

Low to Moderate

RISK CATEGORY: REGULATORY

Risk of an Approved Provider receiving a non-compliant financial viability or governance rating by the Regulator

RISK IMPACT	RISK MITIGATION	IMPACT	LIKELIHOOD
Should an Approved Provider with which the Group has one or more leases in place receive a non-compliant rating by the Regulator, in particular in relation to viability, depending on the further actions of the Regulator, it is possible that there may be a negative impact on the market value of the relevant properties which are the subject of such lease(s). Depending on the exposure of the Group to such Approved Provider, this in turn may have a material adverse effect on Group's Net Asset Value until such time as the matter is resolved through an improvement in the relevant Approved Provider's rating or a change in Approved Provider.	As part of the Company's acquisition process, the Investment Manager conducts a thorough due diligence process on all Registered Providers with which the Company enters into lease agreements that takes account of their financial strength and governance procedures. The Investment Manager has established relationships with the Approved Provider with whom it works. The Approved Providers keep them informed of developments surrounding the regulatory notices.	Moderate to High	Low to Moderate

RISK CATEGORY: REGULATORY

Risk of changes to the Social Housing regulatory regime

RISK IMPACT	RISK MITIGATION	IMPACT	LIKELIHOOD
Future Governments may take a different approach to the Social Housing regulatory regime, resulting in changes to the law and other regulation or practices of the Government with regard to Social Housing.	As demand for social housing remains high relative to supply, the Group is confident there will continue to be a viable market within which to operate, notwithstanding any future change of government. Even if government funding was to reduce, the nature of the rental agreements the Group has in place means that the Group will enjoy continued lessee rent commitment for the term of the agreed leases.	High	Low to Moderate

RISK CATEGORY: REGULATORY

Risk of not being qualified as REIT

RISK IMPACT	RISK MITIGATION	IMPACT	LIKELIHOOD
If the Group fails to remain in compliance with the REIT conditions, the members of the Group will be subject to UK corporation tax on some or all of their property rental income and chargeable gains on the sale of properties which would reduce the funds available to distribute to investors.	The Group intends to stay as a REIT and work within its investment objective and policy. The Investment Manager will retain legal and regulatory advisers and consult with them on a regular basis to ensure it understands and complies with the requirements. In addition, the Board oversees adherence to the REIT regime, maintaining close dialogue with the Investment Manager to ensure we remain compliant with legislation.	High	Low

RISK CATEGORY: CORPORATE

Reliance on the Investment Manager

RISK IMPACT

RISK MITIGATION

IMPACT

LIKELIHOOD

We continue to rely on the Investment Manager's services and its reputation in the social housing market. As a result, our performance will, to a large extent, depend on the Investment Manager's abilities in the property market. Termination of the Investment Management Agreement would severely affect our ability to effectively manage our operations and may have a negative impact on the share price of the Company.

Unless there is a default, either party may terminate the Investment Management Agreement by giving not less than 12 months' written notice, which may expire before August 2020. The Board regularly reviews and monitors the Investment Manager's performance. In addition, the Board meets regularly with the Manager to ensure that

we maintain a positive working relationship.

RISK CATEGORY: FINANCIAL

Property valuations may be subject to change over time

RISK IMPACT

RISK MITIGATION

IMPACT

LIKELIHOOD

Property valuations are inherently subjective and uncertain. Market conditions, which may impact the creditworthiness of lessees, may adversely affect valuations. The portfolio is valued on a Market Value basis, which takes into account the expected rental income to be received under the leases in future. This valuation methodology provides a significantly higher valuation than the Vacant Possession value of a property. In the event of an unremedied default of an Approved Provider lessee, the value of the assets in the portfolio may be negatively affected.

Any changes could affect the Group's net asset value and the share price of the Group.

The borrowings the Company currently has and which the Group uses in the future may contain loan to value and interest covenants. If property valuations decrease, such covenants could be breached, and the impact of such an event could include: an increase in borrowing costs; a call for additional capital from the lender; payment of a fee to the lender; a sale of an asset; or a forfeit of any asset to a lender.

All of the Group's property assets are independently valued quarterly by Jones Lang LaSalle, a specialist property valuation firm who are provided with regular updates on portfolio activity by the Investment Manager. The Investment Manager meets with the external valuers to discuss the basis of their valuations and their quality control processes. Default risk of lessees is mitigated in accordance with the lessee default principal risk explanation provided above. In order to protect against loss in value, the Investment Manager's property management team seeks to visit each property in the portfolio once a year, and works closely with lease counterparties to ensure, to the extent reasonably possible, their financial strength and governance procedures remain robust through the duration of the relevant lease.

DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITY STATEMENT

The Directors confirm that to the best of their knowledge this condensed set of financial statements has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 as adopted by the European Union and that the operating and financial review includes a fair review of the information required by DTR 4.2.7 and DTR 4.2.8 of the Disclosure and Transparency rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority namely:

· an indication of important events that have occurred during the first six months of the financial year and their impact on the condensed financial statements and a description of the principal risks and uncertainties for the remaining six months of the financial year; and

· material related party transactions in the first six months of the financial year as disclosed in note 22.

Shareholder information is as disclosed on the Triple Point Social Housing REIT plc website.

Independent Review Report to the members of Triple Point Social Housing REIT plc

Introduction

We have been engaged by the Company to review the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report for the six months ended 30 June 2018 which comprises the Condensed Group Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Condensed Group Statement of Financial Position, the Condensed Group Statement of Changes in Equity, the Condensed Group Statement of Cash Flows and the Notes to the Group Condensed Interim Financial Statements.

We have read the other information contained in the half-yearly financial report and considered whether it contains any apparent misstatements or material inconsistencies with the information in the condensed set of financial statements.

Directors' responsibilities

The half-yearly financial report is the responsibility of and has been approved by the directors. The directors are responsible for preparing the half-yearly financial report in accordance with the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority.

As disclosed in note 2, the annual financial statements of the Group are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as adopted by the European Union. The condensed set of financial statements included in this half-yearly financial report has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, ''Interim Financial Reporting'', as adopted by the European Union.

Our responsibility

Our responsibility is to express to the Company a conclusion on the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report based on our review.

Our report has been prepared in accordance with the terms of our engagement to assist the Company in meeting its responsibilities in respect of half-yearly financial reporting in accordance with the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority and for no other purpose. No person is entitled to rely on this report unless such a person is a person entitled to rely upon this report by virtue of and for the purpose of our terms of engagement or has been expressly authorised to do so by our prior written consent. Save as above, we do not accept responsibility for this report to any other person or for any other purpose and we hereby expressly disclaim any and all such liability.

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements (UK and Ireland) 2410, ''Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity'', issued by the Financial Reporting Council for use in the United Kingdom. A review of interim financial information consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial report for the six months ended 30 June 2018 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, as adopted by the European Union, and the Disclosure Guidance and Transparency Rules of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority.

NOTES TO THE GROUP CONDENSED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

For the period from 1 January 2018 to 30 June 2018

1. CORPORATE INFORMATION

Triple Point Social Housing REIT plc (the "Company") is a Real Estate Investment Trust ("REIT") incorporated in England and Wales under the Companies Act 2006 as a public company limited by shares on 12 June 2017. The address of the registered office is 18 St. Swithin's Lane, London, United Kingdom, EC4N 8AD. The Company is registered as an investment company under section 833 of the Companies Act 2006 and is domiciled in the United Kingdom.

The principal activity of the Company is to act as the ultimate parent company of Triple Point Social Housing REIT plc and its subsidiaries (the "Group") and to provide shareholders with an attractive level of income, together with the potential for capital growth from investing in a portfolio of social homes.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION

The Condensed Group Financial Statements for the six months ended 30 June 2018 have been prepared in accordance with the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the Financial Conduct Authority (previously the Financial Services Authority) and with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as adopted by the European Union.

Comparatives, as required by IAS34 for the comparable interim period, are not provided as this is the Group's first interim report since incorporation.

The Condensed Group Financial Statements for the six months ended 30 June 2018 have been reviewed by the Company's Auditor, BDO LLP in accordance with International Standard of Review Engagements 2410, Review of Interim of Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity and were approved for issue on 13 September 2018. The Condensed Group Financial Statements are unaudited and do not constitute statutory accounts for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006.

The comparative financial information for the period ended 31 December 2017 in this interim report does not constitute statutory accounts for that year. The Company's annual report and accounts for the period to 31 December 2017 have been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The independent auditor's report on those accounts was unqualified, did not include reference to any matters to which the auditors drew attention by way of emphasis without qualifying their report and did not contain a statement under section 498(2) or 498(3) of the Companies Act 2006.

The Group's Financial Statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, as modified for the Group's investment properties, which have been measured at fair value. Gains or losses arising from changes in fair values are included in profit or loss.

The Group has applied the same accounting policies in these Condensed Group Financial Statements as in its 2017 annual financial statements, except for those that relate to new standards and interpretations effective for the first time for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. New standards impacting the Group that will be adopted in the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018 are:

· IFRS 9 Financial Instruments; and

· IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments

IFRS 9 replaces IAS 39 Financial Instrument: Recognition and Measurement and introduces a single model that has initially only two classification categories rather than the multiple classification and measurement models in the previous standard. The new models are amortised cost and fair value.

Due to the nature of the Group's financial instruments, the adoption of IFRS 9 does not have a material impact on the Group's consolidated results or financial position and does not require there be a restatement of comparative figures.

The fair value of each category of the Group's financial instruments approximates to their carrying value. Where financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value the measurement hierarchy, valuation techniques and inputs used are consistent with those used at 31 December 2017. There were no movements between different levels of the fair value hierarchy in the period.

Having considered the requirements of IFRS 9, under section 5.5.15(b), the Directors are required to apply the simplified approach when considering the Expected Credit Loss (ECL) model when determining the expectations of impairment. Under the simplified approach the Company is always required to measure lifetime expected losses.

Given the nature to the Group's receivables, the Directors do not consider any to be impaired. They believe that all are fully recoverable and therefore there is no ECL to recognise. This view is because all rent receivables are fully insured and each tenant receives their cash inflows from local and central government. These factors combine to ensure the probability of credit loss is immeasurably small.

IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

IFRS 15 has replaced IAS 11 Construction Contracts and IAS 18 Revenue. The standard introduces a new revenue recognition model that recognises revenue either at a point in time or over time (effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018.

The Directors are satisfied the standard has no material impact on the financial statements as rental income is outside the scope of the standard and the Group's only revenue is currently generated from rental income from leases that do not contain any service components.

IFRS 16 becomes effective on 1 January 2019 for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019 and the Directors are currently assessing the impact on the financial statements. However, it is not expected that this standard will have a material impact on the Group's financial statements as the Group has no operating leases as a lessee.

2.1. Going concern

The Group benefits from a secure income stream from long leases which are not overly reliant on any one tenant and present a well-diversified risk. The directors have reviewed the Group's forecast which shows rental income exceeds the expected operating costs of the Group for at least the next 12 months.

As a result, the directors believe that the Group is well placed to manage its financing and other business risks and that the Group will remain viable, continuing to operate and meets its liabilities as they fall due.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

In the application of the Group's accounting policies, which are described in note 4, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are outlined below:

Estimates:

3.1. Investment properties

The Group uses the valuation carried out by its independent valuers as the fair value of its property portfolio. The valuation is based upon assumptions including future rental income and the appropriate discount rate. The valuers also make reference to market evidence of transaction prices for similar properties. Further information is provided in note 11.

The Group's properties have been independently valued by Jones Lang LaSalle Limited ("JLL" or the "Valuer") in accordance with the definitions published by the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors' ("RICS") Valuation - Professional Standards, July 2017, Global and UK Editions (commonly known as the "Red Book"). JLL is one of the most recognised professional firms within social housing valuation and has sufficient current local and national knowledge of both social housing generally and specialist supported housing ("SSH") and has the skills and understanding to undertake the valuations competently.

With respect to the Group's Financial Statements, investment properties are valued at their fair value at each Statement of Financial Position date in accordance with IFRS 13 which recognises a variety of fair value inputs depending upon the nature of the investment. Specifically:

Level 1 - Unadjusted, quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active (typically quoted) markets;

Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets

Level 3 - External inputs are "unobservable". Value is the Director's best estimate, based on advice from relevant knowledgeable experts, use of recognised valuation techniques and a determination of which assumptions should be applied in valuing such assets and with particular focus on the specific attributes of the investments themselves.

Given the bespoke nature of each of the Group's investments, all of the Group's investment properties are included in Level 3.

Judgements:

3.2. Asset acquisitions

The Group acquires subsidiaries that own investment properties. At the time of acquisition, the Group considers whether each acquisition represents the acquisition of a business or the acquisition of an asset. The directors consider the substance of the assets and activities of the acquired entity in determining whether the acquisition represents the acquisition of a business. The Group accounts for an acquisition as a business combination where an integrated set of activities is acquired in addition to the property.

Where such acquisitions are not judged to be the acquisition of a business, they are not treated as business combinations. Rather, the cost to acquire the corporate entity is allocated between the identifiable assets and liabilities of the entity based upon their relative fair values at the acquisition date. Accordingly, no goodwill or deferred tax arises.

All corporate acquisitions during the period have been treated as asset purchases rather than business combinations because no integrated set of activities were acquired.

3.3. the Group as lessor

The Group has acquired investment properties that are subject to commercial property leases with Registered Providers. The Group has determined, based on an evaluation of the terms and conditions of the arrangements, particularly the duration of the lease terms and minimum lease payments, that it retains all the significant risks and rewards of ownership of these properties and so accounts for the leases as operating leases.

3.4. the Group as lessee

Leases where substantially all of the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of a leased asset have been transferred to the Group are accounted for as finance leases. The asset is treated as if it had been purchased outright and held within the Group's investment properties. The amount initially recognised as an asset is the lower of the fair value of the leased property and the present value of the minimum lease payments payable over the term of the lease. The corresponding lease commitment is shown as a liability. Lease payments are analysed between capital and interest. The interest element is charged to the Statement of Comprehensive Income over the period of the lease. The capital element reduces the balance owed to the lessor.

4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The principal accounting policies applied in this report are consistent with those applied in the Group's statutory accounts for the period ended 31 December 2017. The principal accounting policies of the financial statements are set out below.

4.1. Basis of consolidation

The Condensed Group Financial Statements comprise the financial information of the Group as at the interim period end date.

Subsidiaries are all entities over which the Group has control. The Group controls an entity when the group is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation. The financial information of the subsidiaries is included in the financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.

If an equity interest in a subsidiary is transferred but a controlling interest continues to be held after the transfer then the change in ownership interest is accounted for as an equity transaction.

Accounting policies of the subsidiaries are consistent with the policies adopted by the Company.

4.2. Investment property

Investment property, which is property held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation, is initially measured at cost, being the fair value of the consideration given, including expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the investment property. After initial recognition, investment property is stated at its fair value at the Statement of Financial Position date. Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of investment property are included in profit or loss for the period in which they arise in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it is probable that future economic benefits are associated with the expenditure.

An investment property is derecognised upon disposal or when the investment property is permanently withdrawn from use and no future economic benefits are expected to be obtained from the disposal. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the property (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) is recorded in profit or loss in the period in which the property is derecognised.

Investment properties under construction are financed by the Group where the Group enters into contracts for the development of a pre-let property under a forward funding agreement. The Group does not expose itself to any speculative development risk as the proposed property is pre-let to a tenant under an agreement for lease and the Group enters into a fixed price development agreement with the Developer. Investment properties under construction are initially recognised at gross development costs (including any associated costs), which reflects the Group's maximum commitment in relation to the forward funding of the pre-let property. Subsequently, the properties are revalued at fair value at each reporting date in form of a work-in-progress value. The work-in-progress value of investment properties under construction is estimated as fair value of the completed asset less any costs still payable in order to complete, which includes the Developer's margin.

During the period between initial investment and the lease commencement date (practical completion of the works) a coupon interest due on the funds paid in the range of 6.5-6.75% per annum is payable by the Developer. On lease commencement date, the aggregate amount of coupon interest accrued during the construction period is deducted from the gross development cost, reducing the outstanding balance payable to the Developer on practical completion. When practical completion is reached the Completed Investment property is transferred to operational Assets of the fair value on the date of completion.

Significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions made for the valuation of investment properties are discussed in note 3.

4.3. Leases-Lessor

Leases are classified as finance leases where the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

The Group has determined that it retains all the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the properties it has acquired to date and accounts for the contracts as operating leases as discussed in note 3. No leases granted in the period exceed 30 years, the economic life of the assets is deemed to be considerably longer than this. The portfolio consists of purpose built, high specification assets which by their nature can last indefinitely if maintenance and replacement works are carried out, or could be modified and used for alternative uses if necessary.

Properties leased out under operating leases are included in investment property in the Statement of Financial Position. Rental income from operating leases is recognised on a straight line basis over the term of the relevant leases.

4.4. Trade and other receivables

Trade and other receivables are amounts due in the ordinary course of business. If collection is expected in one year or less, they are classified as current assets. If not, they are presented as non-current assets.

Trade and other receivables are initially recognised at fair value, and subsequently where necessary re-measured at amortised cost less provision for impairment. A provision for impairment of trade receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due in accordance with the original terms of the receivables.

4.5. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, cash held by lawyers and liquidity funds with a term of no more than three months that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

Cash held by lawyers is money held in escrow for expenses expected to be incurred in relation to investment properties pending completion. These funds are available immediately on demand.

4.6. Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation (legal or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable that the Group will be required to settle that obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the Statement of Financial Position date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation.

4.7. Trade and other payables

Trade and other payables are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less from the end of the current accounting period. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade and other payables are recognised initially at their fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost until settled.

4.8. C Shares financial liability

C shares are convertible non-voting preference shares and under IAS 32 Financial Instruments: Presentation, meet the definition of a financial liability. C shares are recognised on issue at fair value less directly attributable transaction costs. After initial recognition, C shares are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method. Amortisation is credited to or charged to finance income or finance costs in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income. Transaction costs are deducted from proceeds at the time of issue. C shares will convert into Ordinary shares on the conversion date on the basis of their respective NAV per share at the calculation date.

4.9. Taxation

Taxation on the profit or loss for the period not exempt under UK REIT regulations is comprised of current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income except to the extent that it relates to items recognised as direct movement in equity, in which case it is recognised as a direct movement in equity. Current tax is expected tax payable on any non REIT taxable income for the period, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous periods.

Deferred tax is provided on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. The amount of deferred tax that is provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.

4.10. Dividend payable to shareholders

Dividends to the Company's shareholders are recognised as a liability in the Group's Financial Statements in the period in which the dividends are approved. In the UK, interim dividends are recognised when paid.

4.11. Rental income

Rental income from investment property is recognised on a straight-line basis over the term of ongoing leases and is shown gross of any UK income tax. A rental adjustment is recognised from the rent review date in relation to unsettled rent reviews, where the directors are reasonably certain that the rental uplift will be agreed.

Rental income is invoiced in advance and any rental income that relates to a future period is deferred and appears within current liabilities on the Statement of Financial Position.

Tenant lease incentives are recognised as a reduction of rental revenue on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

When the Group enters into a forward funded transaction, the future tenant signs an agreement for lease. No rental income is recognised under the agreement for lease, but once the practical completion has taken place the formal lease is signed at which point rental income commences to be recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.

4.12. Finance income and finance costs

Finance income is recognised as interest accrues on cash balances held by the Group. Finance costs consist of interest and other costs that the Group incurs in connection with bank and other borrowings. These costs are expensed in the period in which they occur.

4.13. Expenses

All expenses are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income on an accruals basis.

4.14. Investment management fees

Investment advisory fees are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income on an accruals basis.

4.15. Share issue costs

The costs of issuing or reacquiring equity instruments (other than in a business combination) are accounted for as a deduction from equity.

4.16. Impairment of financial assets

Having considered the requirements of IFRS 9, under section 5.5.15(b), the simplified approach has been applied when considering the Expected Credit Loss (ECL) model in determining the expectations of impairment. Under the simplified approach the Company is always required to measure lifetime expected losses.

5. RENTAL INCOME

The lease agreements between the Group and the Registered Providers are full repairing and insuring leases. The Registered Providers are responsible for the settlement of all present and future rates, taxes, costs and other impositions payable in respect of the property. As a result, no direct property expenses were incurred.

10. TAXATION

As a UK REIT, the Group is exempt from corporation tax on the profits and gains from its property investment business, provided it meets certain conditions as set out in the UK REIT regulations. For the interim period from 1 January to 30 June 2018, the Group did not have any non-qualifying profits and accordingly there is no tax charge in the period. If there were any non-qualifying profits and gains, these would be subject to corporation tax.

It is assumed that the Group will continue to be a group UK REIT for the foreseeable future, such that deferred tax has not been recognised on temporary differences relating to the property rental business.

Properties under development represents contracts for the development of a pre-let property under a forward funding agreement.

The carrying value of leasehold properties at 30 June 2018 was £24.4 million (2017 - £24.1 million).

In accordance with "IAS 40: Investment Property", the Group's investment properties have been independently valued at fair value by Jones Lang LaSalle Limited ("JLL"), an accredited external valuer with recognised and relevant professional qualifications. The independent valuers provide their fair value of the Group's investment property portfolio every six months.

JLL were appointed as external valuers by the Board on 11 December 2017. JLL has provided valuations services to the Group. The proportion of the total fees payable by the Company to JLL's total fee income is minimal. Additionally, JLL has a rotation policy in place whereby the signatories on the valuations rotate after 7 years.

In order to achieve its Investment Objective, the Company will invest in a diversified portfolio of freehold or long leasehold Social Housing assets in the UK. Supported Housing assets will account for at least 80 per cent of Gross Asset Value (once fully invested). The Company will acquire portfolios of Social Housing assets and single Social Housing assets to be acquired and/or held, either directly or via SPVs. Each asset will be subject to a Lease or occupancy agreement with an Approved Provider for terms primarily ranging from 20 years to 25 years, with the rent payable thereunder subject to adjustment in line with inflation (generally CPI). Title to the assets will remain with the Group under the terms of the relevant Lease. The Group will not be responsible for any management or maintenance obligations under the terms of the lease or occupancy agreement, all of which will be serviced by the Approved Provider lessee. The Group will not be responsible for the provision of care to occupants of Supported Housing assets.

The Group intends to hold its investment property portfolio over the long term, taking advantage of long-term upward only inflation linked leases. The Group will not be actively seeking to dispose of any of its assets, although it may dispose of investments should an opportunity arise that would enhance the value of the Group as a whole.

Investment properties	31 December 2017	138,512	-	-	138,512

There have been no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the period, nor have there been any transfers between Level 2 and Level 3 during the period.

The valuations have been prepared in accordance with the RICS Valuation - Professional Standards (incorporating the International Valuation Standards) by JLL, one of the leading professional firms engaged in the social housing sector.

As noted previously all of the Group's investment properties are reported as Level 3 in accordance with IFRS 13 where external inputs are "unobservable" and value is the Directors' best estimate, based upon advice from relevant knowledgeable experts.

In this instance, the determination of the fair value of investment property requires an examination of the specific merits of each property that are in turn considered pertinent to the valuation.

These include i) the regulated social housing sector and demand for the facilities offered by each SSH property owned by the Group; ii) the particular structure of the Group's transactions where vendors, at their own expense, meet the majority of the refurbishment costs of each property and certain purchase costs; iii) detailed financial analysis with discount rates supporting the carrying value of each property; iv) underlying rents for each property being subject to independent benchmarking and adjustment where the Group considers them too high (resulting in a price reduction for the purchase or withdrawal from the transaction); and v) a full repairing and insuring lease with annual indexation based on CPI or CPI+1% and effectively 25 years outstanding, in most cases with a Housing Association itself regulated by the Homes and Communities Agency.

Descriptions and definitions relating to valuation techniques and key unobservable inputs made in determining fair values are as follows:

The valuer treats the fair value for forward funded asset as work-in-progress value whereby the Company forward funds a development by committing a total sum, the Gross Development Value ("GDV") over the development period in order to receive the completed development at practical completion. The work-in-progress value of the asset increases during the construction period accordingly as payments are made by the Company which leads, in turn, to a pro-rata increase in the valuation in each quarter valuation assuming there are no material events affecting the GDV adversely. Interest accrued during construction as well as an estimation of future interest accrual prior to lease commencement will be deducted from the balancing payment which is the final payment to be drawn by the developer prior to the Company receiving the completed building.

Valuation techniques: Discounted cash flows

The discounted cash flows model considers the present value of net cash flows to be generated from the property, taking into account the expected rental growth rate and lease incentive costs such as rent-free periods. The expected net cash flows are then discounted using risk-adjusted discount rates.

There are two main unobservable inputs that determine the fair value of the Group's investment property:

1. The rate of inflation as measured by CPI; it should be noted that all leases benefit from either CPI or RPI indexation.

2. The discount rate applied to the rental flows.

Key factors in determining the discount rates applied include the performance of the regulated social housing sector and demand for each specialist supported housing property owned by the Group, costs of acquisition and refurbishment of each property, the anticipated future underlying cash flows for each property, benchmarking of each underlying rent for each property (passing rent), and the fact that all of the Group's properties have the benefit of full repairing and insuring leases entered into by a Housing Association.

All of the properties within the Group's portfolio benefit from leases with annual indexation based upon CPI or RPI. The fair value measurement is based on the above items highest and best use, which does not differ from their actual use.

Sensitivities of measurement of significant unobservable inputs

As set out within the significant accounting estimates and judgements in Note 3, the Group's property portfolio valuation is open to judgements and is inherently subjective by nature.

As a result, the following sensitivity analysis has been prepared:

Average discount rate and range:

The average discount rate used in the Group's property portfolio valuation is 6.9%.

The range of discount rates used in the Group's property portfolio valuation is from 6.4% to 7.5%.

Liquidity funds refer to money placed in money market funds. These are highly liquid funds with accessibility within 24 hours and subject to insignificant risk of changes in value. Interest at market rate of 0.01% per annum is earned on these deposits.

Cash held by lawyers is money held in escrow for expenses expected to be incurred in relation to investment properties pending completion. These funds are available immediately on demand.

Restricted cash represents retention money held by lawyers in relation to repair, maintenance and improvement works by the vendors to bring the properties up to satisfactory standards for the Group and the tenants. Currently that amount of cash is held in escrow by the lawyers. The cash is committed on the acquisition of the properties.

Cash and cash equivalent reported in the Statement of Cash Flows totalled £60.47 million (2017 - £54.76 million) as at the period end, which excludes restricted cash totalling £2.9 million (2017 - £3.4 million).

On 23 March 2018 the Company announced the issue of 47,500,000 C shares, issued at 100 pence per share. The C shares are convertible preference shares. The shares are listed on the London Stock Exchange and dealing commenced on 27 March 2018.

Holders of C shares are not entitled to receive notice of, attend, speak or vote at general meetings of the Company.

The C shares have the right to participate in a fixed rate dividend of 3% per C share per annum pro-rated up to the conversion date paid in cash (based on a C share price of 100 pence). The pro-rated dividend will be paid on 28 September 2018.

The funds were raised in order to finance a number of property acquisitions and C shares were issued rather than Ordinary shares so that the issue costs associated with the fund raise and the costs associated with the property acquisitions did not dilute the Ordinary share NAV.

In order to calculate the net assets attributable to each share class, the results, assets and liabilities attributable to the C shares are identified in a separate pool to the results, assets and liabilities of the Ordinary shares. A share of fund level expenses for the period is allocated to the C shares based on the net assets of each share class pool at 31 March 2018. In arriving at the finance charge for C Share liability the Group has amortised issue costs of £584,000 and coupon interest of £375,000 during the period.

On 30 June 2018 90% of the C share funds had been invested or committed and the C shares converted into Ordinary Shares on 30 August 2018 (conversion date). The conversion is on the basis of their respective NAV per share as at 29 June 2018 (calculation date), adjusted for dividends payable to both share classes and the fair value gain on assets acquired on which the Company had exchanged contracts but not completed until 13 July 2018. On 30 August 2018 46,352,220 Ordinary shares were issued on conversion of the C shares.

It should be noted that these financial statements include all results, assets and liabilities of both share class pools however as the C shares are classified as a liability, net assets are reduced by the value of the C shares liability which is also equivalent to the net assets of the C share pool.

The value of the C shares liability at 30 June 2018 is £46,683,799 representing 98.28p per share.

The table below gives a summary of the movement in net assets of the C share pool and Group results for the period from 1 January 2018 to 30 June 2018.

21. SEGMENTAL INFORMATION

IFRS 8 Operating Segments requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal financial reports about components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (which in the Group's case is delegated to the Delegated Investment Advisor TPIM).

The internal financial reports received by TPIM contain financial information at a Group level as a whole and there are no reconciling items between the results contained in these reports and the amounts reported in the financial statements.

The Group's property portfolio comprised 167 Social Housing properties as at 30 June 2018 in England and Wales. The directors consider that these properties represent a coherent and diversified portfolio with similar economic characteristics and, as a result, these individual properties have been aggregated into a single operating segment. In the view of the directors there is accordingly one reportable segment under the provisions of IFRS 8.

All of the Group's properties are engaged in a single segment business with all revenue, assets and liabilities arose in the UK, therefore, no geographical segmental analysis is required by IFRS 8.

22. RELATED PARTY DISCLOSURE

24. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Property acquisitions

Subsequent to the end of the period, the Group has acquired portfolios of 41 supported Social Housing properties deploying £49.3 million (including acquisition costs).

Forward Funding Arrangements

Since 30 June 2018 the Group has entered into one forward funding agreement at a total project cost of £1.9 million. The land has been acquired by the Group and a developer has been contracted to carry out the construction. Jones Lang LaSalle Limited has been appointed as the fund monitor for both sites and will be overseeing the projects on behalf of the Group.

Debt financing

On 20 July 2018, the Company has entered into a long dated, fixed rate, interest only financing arrangement in the form of a private placement of loan notes in an amount of £68.5 million with MetLife and affiliated funds. The Loan Notes are secured against a portfolio of specialist supported living assets throughout the UK, worth approximately £172m, acquired in the period from admission in August 2017 to the end of March 2018. The amounts which have been drawn down under the Loan Notes are segregated and non-recourse to the Company.

The Loan Notes represent a loan-to-value of 40% of the value of the secured pool of assets and are split into two tranches: Tranche-A, in an amount of £41.5 million, has a term of 10 years from utilisation and is priced at an all-in coupon of 2.924%; and Tranche-B, in an amount of £27 million, has a term of 15 years from utilisation and is priced at an all-in coupon of 3.215%. On a blended basis, the weighted average term is 12 years carrying a weighted average fixed rate coupon of 3.039%.

26. EARNINGS PER SHARE

Earnings per share ("EPS") amounts are calculated by dividing profit for the period attributable to Ordinary equity holders of the Company by the weighted average number of Ordinary Shares in issue during the period. Diluted EPS are calculated by dividing profit for the period attributable to both Ordinary equity holders and C preference shareholders by the weighted average number of Ordinary shares and C shares in issue during the period. The weighted average number of shares, for the purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share, has been calculated based on the actual number of shares issued on conversion of the C shares in accordance with IAS 33.

The calculation of basic, diluted and EPRA earnings per share is based on the following:

	1 January 2018		12 June 2017 to
	to 30 June 2018		31 December 2017
	(unaudited)		(audited)


Calculation of Basic Earnings per share

Net profit attributable to Ordinary Shareholders (£'000)	6,040		5,672

Weighted average number of Ordinary Shares	200,000,000		143,842,365

Earnings per share - basic	3.02p		3.94p

Calculation of Diluted Earnings per share

Net profit attributable to Ordinary Shareholders (£'000)	6,040		5,672

Add back finance costs associated with the C share liability (£'000)	134		-

Total (£'000)	6,174		5,672

Weighted average number of Ordinary shares	200,000,000		143,842,365

Effects of dilution from C shares	24,584,603		-
	224,584,603		143,842,365

Earnings per share - diluted	2.75p		3.94p

EPRA Earnings per share
Net profit attributable to Ordinary Shareholders (£'000)		6,040		5,672
Changes in value of fair value of investment property (£'000)		(3,257)		(5,639)
Total (£'000)		2,783		33
Weighted average number of Ordinary Shares		200,000,000		143,842,365
Earnings per share - EPRA		1.39p		0.02p

27. NET ASSET VALUE PER SHARE

Basic Net Asset Value ("NAV") per share is calculated by dividing net assets in the Condensed Group Statement of Financial Position attributable to ordinary equity holders of the parent by the number of Ordinary Shares outstanding at the end of the period. Diluted NAV per share is calculated by adjusting net assets for the conversion of C Shares.

Net asset values have been calculated as follows:

	30 June 2018	31 December 2017
	(unaudited)	(audited)

Net assets (£'000)	203,212	201,672
Number of Ordinary shares in issue at end of period	200,000,000	200,000,000
NAV basic	101.61p	100.84p

Net assets (£'000)	203,212	201,672
Adjust for the effect of the C shares converting (£'000)	46,684	-
Adjusted net assets (£'000)	249,896	201,672
Number of Ordinary shares in issue at end of period	200,000,000	200,000,000
Number of Ordinary shares that would be issued on the conversion of C shares	45,945,807	-
Total	245,945,807	200,000,000

NAV - diluted (EPRA NAV)	101.61p	100.84p

For the purpose of calculating the diluted NAV the number of shares equal the shares that would have been issued if conversion of the C shares had happened on 30 June 2018, based on the NAV of the C share pool at that date rather than taking into account any impact on the C share pool NAV up to the point of conversion.

28. UNAUDITED PERFORMANCE MEASURE - PORTFOLIO NET ASSET VALUE

The objective of the Portfolio Net Asset Value "Portfolio NAV" measure is to highlight the fair value of the net assets on an ongoing, long term basis, which aligns with the Group's business strategy as an ongoing REIT with a long-term investment outlook. This Portfolio NAV is made available on a quarterly basis on the Company's website and announced via RNS.

On 27 March 2018 the Company issued 47,500,000 of C shares. The results, assets and liabilities attributable to the C shares are accounted for in a separate pool to those of the Ordinary shares and thus the Company announces a quarterly Portfolio NAV for both share classes.

The C shares have been recognised in the financial statements as a liability valued at amortised cost which represents the value of the assets and liabilities attributable to the C share pool (see note 15). Thus, the net assets of the Company disclosed in the financial statements are equal to the net assets attributable to the Ordinary shareholders.

In order to arrive at Portfolio NAV, two adjustments are made to the IFRS Net Asset Value ("IFRS NAV") reported in the consolidated financial statements such that;

i. The C share liability, equivalent to the net assets attributable to the C shareholders is added back to net assets, because under IFRS accounting rules the C shares are recognised as a liability. (Please refer to note 15 for more details).

ii. The hypothetical sale of properties will take place on the basis of a sale of a corporate vehicle rather than a sale of underlying property assets. This assumption reflects the basis upon which the Company's assets have been assembled within specific SPVs.

iii. The hypothetical sale will take place in the form of a single portfolio disposal.

	30 June 2018	30 June 2018	30 June 2018	31 December 2017
	Ordinary	C		Ordinary
	Share	Share	Total	Share
	£'000	£'000	£'000	£'000

Net asset value per the consolidated financial statements	203,212	-	203,212	201,672
Add back C Share liability	-	46,684	46,684	-
Value of Asset pools	203,212	46,684	249,896	201,672

Effects of the adoption to the assumed, hypothetical sale of properties as a portfolio and on the basis of sale of a corporate vehicle	12,722	728	13,450	9,400
Portfolio Net Asset Value	215,934	47,412	263,346	211,072

After reflecting these amendments, the movement in net assets is as follows:

	30 June 2018	30 June 2018	30 June 2018	31 December 2017
	Ordinary	C		Ordinary share
	share	share	Total	Total

Portfolio net asset value per share	107.97p	99.82p		105.5p
