  • A Transformational Year of Growth for the Company Following the Completion of the All-Share Merger with Medicx Fund Limited (“Medicx”) on 14 March 2019
    Primary Health Properties PLC Primary Health Properties PLC Annual Report 2019 Annual Report 2019 A transformational year of growth “ 2019 has been a transformational year in PHP’s history following the completion of the all-share merger with MedicX in March 2019, bringing together two high quality and complementary portfolios in the UK and Ireland. The business provides a much stronger platform for the future and has already created significant value delivering a total shareholder return of 49.2% in the year. We have also delivered the operating synergies of £4.0 million per annum outlined at the time of the merger, as well as a 50bp reduction in the average cost of debt. We have continued to selectively grow the enlarged portfolio, particularly in Ireland where we believe there is a significant opportunity, and further strengthened the balance sheet with a successful, oversubscribed £100 million equity issue, £150 million unsecured convertible bond issue and €70 million Euro-denominated private placement loan note. PHP’s high quality portfolio and capital base have helped to deliver another year of strong earnings performance and our 23rd consecutive year of dividend growth. Continuing improvements to the rental growth outlook and further reductions in the cost of finance will help to maintain our strategy of paying a progressive dividend to shareholders which is fully covered by earnings, as we look forward to the future with confidence.” Harry Hyman Managing Director Strategic report Corporate governance Financial statements Further

  • Executive Compensation in UK Property Companies
    J Real Estate Finan Econ (2008) 36:405–426 DOI 10.1007/s11146-008-9107-5 Executive Compensation in UK Property Companies Piet M. A. Eichholtz & Nils Kok & Roger Otten Published online: 29 January 2008 # Springer Science + Business Media, LLC 2008 Abstract We study the drivers of executive compensation in the listed UK property sector. The UK provides an excellent opportunity to analyze executive compensation due to high transparency in the different components of executive compensation. We show that company size is the most important variable in explaining the level of executive compensation. We find that absolute and relative share performance significantly explains long-term compensation, that management style has a distinct influence on the level of executive compensation, and that using alternative monitoring mechanisms (institutional shareholders, debtholders, and outside direc- tors) leads to higher levels of long-term incentives. We find only weak evidence of pay-performance sensitivity for both cash and long-term compensation. Executive shareholdings provide a much stronger link between pay and performance than does executive compensation. Keywords Corporate governance . Executive compensation . Real estate JEL Classification G34 . G35 . J33 Introduction Recently, the often very extensive executive compensation packages, which were originally designed to alleviate the agency problem between managers and shareholders, have attracted intense scrutiny by regulators, the general public, and academics. This scrutiny is fuelled by recent corporate scandals at companies such as Ahold and Enron, and by management pay hikes at times of worker lay-offs. Therefore, more emphasis has been put on the structure of executive compensation packages. P. M. A. Eichholtz (*) : N.

These were in line with our forecast and confirmed a strong year for the company. Earnings per share as measured by the adjusted EPRA EPS (see footnotes to the table) grew by 5.8%, and the Share Price dividend (full-year total) was increased to 5.6p. Following the transformational merger with MedicX (another primary healthcare real estate investment trust, or REIT) in March 2019, the company has fully delivered on the key merger objectives – integrating the companies, a reduction of £4mln in the cost base, and financing cost reduced by half a percentage point to 3.5%. The success of the merger was a significant contributor to the strong share performance in the year, in our view. Drivers for 2020 Major Shareholders With the merger objectives largely complete, we believe that the focus for 2020 returns to the more organic value drivers. The company has six new Blackrock inc 5.0% developments on site for completion in 2020, and a pipeline of property Investec Wealth & Investment 5.0% acquisition targets.
