Results for the year ended 31 December 2025

Entering 2026 with strong momentum across our growth drivers

Commenting, Aubrey Adams, Chair of Tritax Big Box REIT, said:

“Over the past year, Tritax Big Box has taken important strategic steps that reinforce both the capabilities of our platform and our growth drivers. The successful integration of the UKCM logistics assets, together with the portfolio acquisition from Blackstone, has created a meaningful c.20% exposure to urban logistics, strengthening our end-to-end offer and further cementing our leadership position across the UK supply-chain spectrum.

“In parallel, we have launched our data centre programme, pioneering an innovative ‘power-first’ approach that unlocks opportunities in digital infrastructure. In just 12 months, we have assembled a high-quality pipeline and made significant progress, positioning the company to generate exceptional returns for Big Box shareholders from the most compelling structural growth opportunity in real estate.

“Taken together, these initiatives demonstrate the pace at which the Company is evolving, while remaining disciplined in our capital allocation and focused on long-term value creation for shareholders. Underpinned by a high-quality, resilient logistics portfolio, a well-positioned development pipeline, strong foundations in data centres, delivered efficiently through our externally managed structure, we look ahead with confidence in delivering our ambition of 50% growth in adjusted earnings by the end of 2030.”

Attractive earnings growth from increasing rental income and cost-efficient structure

• 6% increase in net rental income to £305.3 million (2024: £276.0 million) driven by full contribution from UKCM acquisition, attractive levels of asset management and development related rental growth offset by asset disposals in support of future growth opportunities.
• 1% increase in Adjusted EPS excluding additional DMA income, which is the Board’s primary measure of recurring earnings, to 8.38 pence (2024: 8.05 pence).
• Improving EPRA cost ratio excluding vacancy costs of 12.4% (2024: 12.6%) reflecting cost-efficient external management structure.
• 5% Total Accounting Return (2024: 9.0%), 8.5% Underlying Total Accounting Return when excluding items considered non-recurring.

Capital growth through growing rents, stable yields and development activity

• Increase in total portfolio value to £7.89 billion (31 December 2024: £6.55 billion), with equivalent yield remaining stable at 5.7% (31 December 2024: 5.7%).

Growth driver 1: Capturing record rental reversion to drive earnings growth

• 2% EPRA like-for-like rental growth delivered over the year (2024: 3.9%).

• 0% portfolio rental reversion (2024: 27.9% reported for the logistics portfolio; 26.1% when including non-strategic assets), inclusive of vacancy, provides potential to capture £101.1 million of additional rent, of which 73.1% is capturable within the next 3 years, supporting future earnings growth.
• £14.2 million added to contracted rent through rent reviews, asset management initiatives and lettings, including:
  • 5% increase in passing rent across open market linked rent reviews settled in period.
  • 18% growth in contracted rent for UKCM logistics portfolio since acquisition in May 2024.
• Successful integration of 28% reversionary £1.04 billion urban logistics weighted portfolio acquired below replacement cost from Blackstone.
  • Expected to generate mid-single-digit EPS accretion in 2026 and enhanced returns well above cost of capital

Growth driver 2: Developing best-in-class logistics assets to drive earnings growth

• 8 million sq ft under construction at the year end with rental income potential of £19.6 million of which 53% has been pre-let.

• 2 million sq ft of new logistics planning consents secured in period and a further 6.1 million sq ft submitted awaiting determination.

Growth driver 3: Power-first data centres targeting exceptional risk adjusted returns

• 107 MW data centre at Manor Farm, Heathrow targeting strong returns with a 9.3% yield on cost (net of all costs and contingent payments) to shareholders.
  • Negotiating terms with leading operator tenant on powered shell pre-let.
  • Planning determination now with the Secretary of State with a decision expected on or before 17 March 2026.
• The data centre pipeline has the potential to deliver significant incremental capital value at each key stage - planning, pre‑letting and practical completion - prior to delivering highly attractive long term income upon completion.
• First right of refusal over Tritax Management originated pipeline across the UK, which could provide c.1 GW of further data centre opportunities.

Notes 

1. Operating profit before fair value movements and other adjustments. 
2. See Note 15 to the financial statements for reconciliation. 
3. The anticipated run rate for Development Management Agreement (DMA) income is £3.0-5.0 million per annum over the medium term. We classify income above this as ‘additional’ development management income, which can be highly variable over time. We therefore present a calculation of Adjusted EPS that excludes additional development management income. £15.5 million of DMA income is included in the 8.87p Adjusted earnings per share in 2025 (2024: £23.0 million included in 8.91p Adjusted earnings per share). 
4. The Portfolio Value includes the Group's investment assets and development assets, land assets held at cost, the Group's share of joint venture assets and other property assets. 
5. Calculated based on pro-forma EBITDA inclusive of full 12 months contribution of portfolio acquired from Blackstone in 2025 and UKCM in 2024.
6. An alternative performance measure. The Group uses a number of financial measures to assess and explain its performance, some of which are considered to be alternative performance measures as they are not defined under IFRS. For further details, see the Financial Review and Notes to the EPRA and other key performance indicators section, as well as definitions in the Glossary.
