The Mall valuation reflects inward yield shift of 31 basis points (on a like for like basis) in the quarter but valued income has fallen 2.8% reflecting the usual seasonal reduction, a number of administrations and certain valuer assumptions. Since the quarter end a number of significant new leases and renewals have been entered into providing a net uplift of approximately £1m of income, and further lettings are in negotiation.

The Group also announces that The Junction has agreed the sale of Cambridge Close Retail Park, Aylesbury to Aviva Life & Pension UK Limited. The price of £60.4m reflects a net initial yield of 6.04% and compares to its valuation as at 31 March 2010 of £58.8m. Completion is anticipated for 16 April 2010. Aviva is an investor in The Junction.
