("K&C" or the "Company")
Annual Results for year ended 30 June 2017
K&C REIT plc (AIM: KCR), the residential real estate
investment trust group, is pleased to announce its annual results
for year ended 30 June 2017. A copy of the annual report and
accounts will be posted to shareholders shortly. A copy will also
be available from the Company's website, www.kandc-reit.co.uk.
Highlights:
-- Revenue up 240% to GBP514,746 (2016: GBP151,417)
-- Gross profit up 343% to GBP404,202 (2016: GBP91,177)
-- NAV per share of 8.57p at 30 June 2017 (2016: 9.42p)
-- Year-end portfolio valuation of GBP7.24 million (2016: GBP7.13 million)
-- Company issued GBP599,000 of new equity and GBP350,000 of
restricted preference shares in the year
-- GBP1.35 million 6% loan note 2020 issued after the year-end,
partly to finance acquisition of three residential units at
Company's freehold Heathside property for GBP935,000.
Commenting on the results, Michael Davies, Chairman of K&C,
said:
"K&C continued to make progress during the period despite
the wider residential property market having to contend with a
number of political and economic events. The Company successfully
raised capital and made further investment in the portfolio to
improve performance. As such, revenue has grown through ground
rents, sales commissions and lease extensions and occupancy levels
remain close to 100 per cent. Post year-end, the Company completed
the acquisition of three residential units at its freehold
Heathside property in Hampstead for GBP935,000, with refurbishing
and improvements underway.
"The Board continues to find and be shown interesting
acquisition opportunities and looks forward to updating the market
in due course on further progress and asset developments."

Notes to Editors:
K&C's objective is to build a substantial residential
property portfolio that generates secure income flow for
shareholders through the acquisition of SPVs (Special Purpose
Vehicles) with inherent historical capital gains. The Directors
intend that the group will acquire, develop and manage residential
property assets in Central London and other key residential areas
in the UK.
CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
This is K&C REIT plc's third Annual Report since its
admission to AIM.
Market and strategy
The Group operates in the UK residential private rented sector
(PRS). It seeks to acquire:
-- under-managed rented property assets and portfolios
The team's considerable PRS expertise enables them to improve
portfolios and, importantly, tenant experience at under-managed
properties, through asset and property management activity. This
has resulted in higher rental and property values.
-- in lower price segments
The focus on lower price segments ensures that the portfolio is
directed towards the highest area of tenant and buyer demand. This
is defensive in a downturn and shows strong growth in an
upturn.
-- held within UK-incorporated companies
The REIT structure itself provides K&C with the opportunity
to capitalise on the advantages afforded to REITs to provide an
efficient exit route for vendors of SPVs, in particular, managing
deferred capital gains tax liabilities.
The residential sales market has slowed over the last year,
particularly in higher price-band properties in Central London. The
impact of the Brexit vote, a more difficult economy, an
inconclusive general election result and significant tax changes,
particularly for 'buy-to-let' landlords, all taking place within a
relatively short period of time, have been difficult for the market
to digest.
It is important to note that, across the UK as a whole, prices
and rental values continue to rise, albeit at slower rates. Indeed,
the Group's assets, which, on a unit basis, are all in the lower
price bands (studio, one and two beds), have performed well.
The positive overall economic fundamentals in the residential
sector - strong demand and shortage of supply - will, in our view,
deliver attractive rental and capital value performance across the
UK over the medium term
Investment and operations
Osprey has exceeded expectations, having significantly increased
revenue from ground rents, sales commissions, lease extensions and
other management income. We have invested in the operations of the
business and believe that Osprey is well positioned to continue its
strong performance in the future.
The Coleherne Road apartments have continued to perform well.
The small size of the units (studio, one- and two-bed flats) is
exactly what the market is looking for. This has meant that
occupancy has been maintained at close to 100 per cent and rents
have increased by eight per cent since acquisition in July
2015.
The Group considered a number of UK residential investment
opportunities during the year. Post the year-end, the Group
completed the acquisition of three residential units at its
freehold Heathside property in Hampstead for GBP935,000 (accepting
the surrender of 67-year leasehold interests) using funds raised
from the issue of convertible loan notes. The Company continues to
implement its value-adding asset-management plan at this property
of creating 'marriage value' through the buy-in of leasehold
units.
Financial
Income increased from GBP151,417 to GBP514,746 in the financial
year. The Group reports a consolidated operating loss before
separately disclosed administrative items of GBP636,896, which
includes abortive and ongoing acquisition costs of approximately
GBP200,000. The operating loss of GBP1,029,215 includes a non-cash
share-based payment charge of GBP392,319.
During the year, the Company issued GBP599,000 of new ordinary
shares at just over 10 pence per share and GBP350,000 of restricted
preference shares at 1p per share. The funds raised have been used
to maintain the Group's property assets and cover working capital
requirements.
On 9 July 2017, the Company issued 6% Loan Notes in the total
sum of GBP1.35 million, a proportion of which are convertible into
ordinary shares. GBP950,000 had been received in advance at the
year-end. The loan notes are redeemable by the Company on 30 June
2020. This capital injection has been used primarily to acquire and
refurbish the three Heathside units referred to above.
The net asset value per share at 30 June 2017 is 8.57p. The
post-balance sheet active asset management, acquisitions and light
refurbishment in the Osprey portfolio has crystallised further
value in the portfolio of more than GBP400,000.
Portfolio valuation
The portfolio at year-end was valued at GBP7.24 million, an
increase of GBP0.1 million compared to 30 June 2016.
Board changes
We were delighted that Dominic White joined the Board as chief
executive in January 2017. His long background in property
investment has already proved of great value to the Company.
Christopher James, Tim Oakley and Patricia Farley stepped down
from the board at the end of March. Christopher and Tim continue to
play important roles as members of the senior management team while
Patricia's property expertise and experience remains available to
the business. Oliver Vaughan became a non-executive director of the
Company in May 2017.
Future prospects
During the year, the Group has raised capital, restructured its
Board, and, since year-end, acquired valuable assets. It has
continued to build the positive momentum from the previous
year.
The Company aims to deliver a strong and growing covered
dividend from rental streams and net asset value growth through the
professional management of residential assets and the acquisition
and management of SPVs with attractive and undervalued portfolios.
We have built a significant pipeline of potential UK residential
investments that, if acquired, would deliver this outcome.
The Board continues to find and be shown interesting acquisition
opportunities and I hope that I will be able to report further
positive developments to you before too long.
STRATEGIC REPORT
The directors present the strategic report of K&C REIT plc
('K&C' or the 'Company') and its subsidiaries (together, the
'Group') for the year ended 30 June 2017. The Company was
incorporated in England and Wales on 10 June 2014.
PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY
The Group carries on the business of acquiring and managing
residential property in the UK for letting to third parties on long
and short leases. At the year-end, the Group consisted of the
Company and three subsidiaries.
1. K&C (Coleherne) Limited owns a freehold residential property in Chelsea, London
2. K&C (Osprey) Limited owns the freehold of several
retirement properties let on long leases to residents and provides
management services in respect of these properties and to third
party landlords
3. K&C (Newbury) Limited owns no property and is now effectively dormant.
GROUP STRATEGY
The directors intend to build a significant presence in the
residential letting market, primarily through the acquisition of
UK-registered special purpose vehicles that own residential
property for letting to third parties.
RESULTS
The Group reports an operating loss from operating activities of
GBP1,029,215 for the year to 30 June 2017.
REVIEW OF BUSINESS AND FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
The Board has reviewed whether the Annual Report, taken as a
whole, presents a fair, balanced and understandable summary of the
Group's position and prospects, and believes that it provides the
information necessary for shareholders to assess the Group's
position, performance, and strategy.
Information on the financial position and development of the
Group is set out in the Chairman's Statement, the report of the
directors and the annexed financial statements.
FINANCIAL KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS
The directors and management team review a variety of key
performance indicators to monitor and improve Group performance,
including:
A. At property level
i. Rent per ft(2) compared with comparable market data and with other units in the asset
ii. Vacancy rate in terms of number of units available and potential rental income
iii. Management costs as a percentage of rental income
(including repairs and maintenance, insurance, cleaning, agents'
fees, legal fees, utilities and council tax)
iv. Gross and net yield compared with target levels
v. Marginal increase in income as a percentage of capital expenditure
vi. Outstanding rents as a percentage of rental income
vii. Implementation of property plans compared with target.
B. At Group level
i. Assets under management compared with target
ii. Overheads as a percentage of gross/net rental income compared with target.
No analysis of performance compared to these KPIs has been
provided because the diverse nature of the assets owned by the
subsidiary companies, and the changes to the operating models
initiated by the Group, make such analyses at this stage of their
ownership potentially misleading.
RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The Board regularly reviews the risks to which the Group is
exposed and ensures through its meetings and regular reporting that
these risks are minimised as far as possible.
The principal risks and uncertainties facing the Group at this
stage in its development are:
-- Financing and liquidity risk
The Company has an ongoing requirement to fund its activities
through the equity markets and in future to obtain finance for
property acquisition and management. There is no certainty that
such funds will be available when needed.
-- Financial instruments
Details of risks associated with the Group's financial
instruments are given in the notes to the financial statements.
-- Valuations
The valuation of the investment property portfolio is inherently
subjective as it is made on the basis of assumptions made by the
valuer that may not prove to be accurate. The outcome of this
judgment is significant to the Group in terms of its investment
decisions and results.
INTERNAL CONTROLS AND RISK MANAGEMENT
The directors are responsible for the Group's system of internal
control. Although no system of internal control can provide
absolute assurance against material misstatement or loss, the
Group's system is designed to provide reasonable assurance that
problems are identified on a timely basis and dealt with
appropriately.
In carrying out their responsibilities, the directors have put
in place a framework of controls to ensure as far as possible that
ongoing financial performance is monitored in a timely manner,
that, where required, corrective action is taken and that risk is
identified as early as practically possible. The directors have
reviewed the effectiveness of internal control.
The Board, subject to delegated authority, reviews, among other
things, capital investment, property sales and purchases,
additional borrowing facilities, guarantees and insurance
arrangements.
BRIBERY RISK
The Group has adopted an anti-corruption policy and
whistle-blowing policy under the Bribery Act 2010. Notwithstanding
this, the Group may be held liable for offences under that Act
committed by its employees or subcontractors whether or not the
Group or the directors have knowledge of the commission of such
offences.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Annual Report contains certain forward-looking statements
that have been made by the directors in good faith based on the
information available at the time of the approval of the annual
report and financial statements. By their nature, such
forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties because
they relate to events and depend on circumstances that will or may
occur in the future. Actual results may differ from those expressed
in such statements.
OUTLOOK
The Group took significant steps forward through its admission
to AIM, achieving REIT status and enhancing the performance of its
first two acquisitions. It now intends to build on these
achievements through further purchases of high quality assets that
will be able to support an increasing income yield. The Group is
currently investigating several potential acquisitions. To make
further acquisitions, the Group will be required to raise more
capital and it is working closely with funding sources, both equity
and debt providers, to achieve this objective.
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS
The directors present their report with the financial statements
of the Company and the Group for the year ended 30 June 2017.
A review of the business, risks and uncertainties and future
developments is included in the Chairman's Statement, the Strategic
Report and the notes to the financial statements.
DIVIDS
The directors do not recommend payment of a dividend for the
year (2016 - GBPnil).
Political donations
The Group made no political donations during the year (2016 -
GBPnil).
Corporate governance statement
The Board is committed to maintaining high standards of
corporate governance. The UK Corporate Governance Code, published
by the Financial Reporting Council, sets out standards of good
practice in relation to board leadership and effectiveness,
remuneration, accountability and relations with shareholders,
providing principles of good governance and a code of best practice
for listed companies. The UK Corporate Governance Code does not
apply to AIM companies. However, shareholders expect companies in
which they invest to be properly governed.
The Company's corporate governance procedures take due regard of
the principles of good governance set out in the UK Corporate
Governance Code, having regard to the size and the stage of
development of the Company. Nonetheless, the Company has not
formally adopted any specific corporate governance code.
The Company has established audit, AIM compliance and
remuneration committees, with formally delegated duties and
responsibilities.
Audit committee
The audit committee currently comprises James Cane and Michael
Davies, the chairman. The committee is responsible for ensuring the
financial performance, position and prospects of the Group are
properly monitored and reported on, and for meeting the auditor and
reviewing their reports relating to accounts and internal
controls.

Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the loss

Fully diluted earnings per share is calculated using the
weighted average number of shares adjusted to assume the conversion
of all dilutive potential ordinary shares.
In the opinion of the directors, all of the outstanding share
options and warrants are anti-dilutive and, hence, basic and fully
diluted loss per share are the same.

The Company's investments comprise the following:
Acquisition of K&C (Coleherne) Limited
On 3 July 2015, the Company acquired the entire issued share
capital of K&C (Coleherne) Limited (formerly Silcott Properties
Limited) for GBP3,630,000, satisfied by cash of GBP3,330,000 and
