Overview
Market and UKCPT
UK real estate surprised on the upside in 2017, delivering strong total returns, despite the political uncertainty
Following its restructuring in 2015 the UKCPT’s portfolio total return has outperformed the market (MSCI/IPD Monthly
Index) for the second year running
Strategic sales at above valuation, which continued after the period end, have enhanced performance with proceeds being
reinvested into assets in favoured sectors that have secure income characteristics
£8.4m of annualised income secured through 30 new lettings and 38 lease renewals / rent reviews
Strong tenant base with 99% of rent collected within 21 days of due date during 2017
Sustainable and attractive dividend yield, underpinned by a portfolio that also has significant reversionary potential
Income returns will be crucial to future performance
UKCPT well positioned with a strong portfolio, significant cash resources, and low gearing

2018 Economics and Forecasts
Politics continues to dominate the headlines
The economy is expected to slow this year, recession is likely to be avoided though
Forecasting, we expect relatively modest returns this year and reasonable relative returns thereafter
Despite strong performance to date, industrial property is expected to continue to lead the sectors with
alternatives also doing well
City of London offices and poorer quality retail present most downside risk
The market is rewarding resilient income in good locations with positive fundamentals
BREXIT decreases forecasting confidence level

REIT Conversion
■ Base erosion and profit shifting (“BEPS”) legislation reduces the ability of UKCPT to deduct interest for tax purposes and
will affect UKCPT from 2020
■ Proposals in 2017 Budget, if implemented, will mean that Guernsey companies who hold UK commercial property may be
subject to capital gains tax
■ Both these changes would only apply if the Company was not a REIT
■ REIT conversion discussions progressing well with final decision due in Q2, leading to summer conversion

Portfolio Strategy 2017/2018
Sales
Exit assets where there is significant capital expenditure anticipated with limited return prospects, or low long term return prospects
Reduce retail exposure
Purchases
Acquire selective institutional grade assets which retain an income focus:
(a) Longer secure income streams, ideally index-linked, where the entry yield supports dividend cover and the investment prospects are sound;
(b) Well located investments which will either benefit from wider infrastructure improvements delivered by others, such as transport links, and/or require a degree of planned
active management, including limited capital expenditure, to grow rent;
(c) Selective assets where rental growth is anticipated
Preferred asset lot size of £20 million to £50 million
Asset Management Activity
Asset management activity focused on enhancing income;
Control void level
Accept investment into/refurbishment of well placed assets with short term leases expected to generate stronger total return
Overall
Retain prime nature of portfolio for long term sustainable performance and focus on growing income
