( YTD: -6.33% | 5D: +5.71%)

21 Mar -  Daily Unit Buyback Notice

  • The Manager of Stoneweg European Real Estate Investment Trust ("SERT" or the "Manager") is pleased to announce that it has, on 20 March 2025, commenced a unit buyback funded from recent asset sales.

  • The unit buyback mandate was approved by unitholders at the FY 2023 AGM on 30 April 2024. As stated in the unitholder letter dated 11 April 2024, which accompanied Ordinary Resolution 4 on the annual renewal of the unit buyback mandate (included in the FY 2023 AGM notice), the buyback serves as a flexible, cost-effective capital management tool to enhance returns on equity and/or NAV per unit.

  • When timed strategically, it can also mitigate short-term market volatility, counter speculative trading, and strengthen market confidence in SERT’s units.

  • This move underscores the Manager’s confidence in SERT’s fundamentals. It also reflects the trust in SERT’s robust portfolio and balance sheet following a highly productive year, reaffirming the focus on long-term value creation.

  • SERT is well-positioned within the evolving market landscape. Years of strategic initiatives have reinforced the quality of its portfolio and balance sheet, recently disclosing at its FY2024 results its longest-ever weighted average lease expiry (WALE) of 5.1 years and debt maturity of 4.3 years since listing eight years ago— establishing a strong foundation.

  • Macroeconomic conditions further support this outlook. The European Central Bank (ECB) has cut interest rates by 150bps to 2.5%, while major European economies, including Germany, France, and the UK, are ramping up infrastructure and defence spending.

  • This response to geopolitical tensions, energy security concerns, and the green transition is expected to bolster the Eurozone economy as European governments prioritise resilience and economic security.

  • SERT’s new sponsor, SWI Group, holds a 27.8% stake in SERT and is fully aligned with unitholders.

  • SERT remains focused on unlocking long-term growth, capitalising on opportunities to drive higher DPU over the medium term and closing the 30% gap to €2.03/unit NAV per unit.
