Care REIT Reports Strong 2024 Results and Strategic Developments

Impact Healthcare REIT ( (GB:CRT) ) just unveiled an announcement.

Care REIT plc reported its annual results for 2024, highlighting improvements in rent cover and operational performance, which have supported increased rent receipts and fully covered dividend payments. The company’s total rental income rose due to annual rent reviews, leading to a 1.9% increase in adjusted EPS and a 3.7% rise in EPRA net tangible assets per share. Despite a slight increase in net loan-to-value ratio, Care REIT maintains a strong balance sheet with significant uncommitted debt facilities. The Board has recommended a cash offer for the company’s entire issued share capital by CareTrust REIT, Inc. The company continues to focus on profitable growth through inflation-based rent reviews and high rental cover in a constrained supply market. However, high interest rates and discounts to net asset value limit capital raising opportunities. Care REIT is also committed to improving the environmental sustainability of its portfolio, with a target to achieve net zero status by 2045.
