TRADING ENVIRONMENT
SPAIN'S ECONOMY HAS SHOWN RESILIENCE IN THE FACE OF SIGNIFICANT CHALLENGES, WITH GRADUAL IMPROVEMENTS ACROSS KEY ECONOMIC INDICATORS
▪ After a solid year, with a growth rate of 2.5% in 2023, GDP is expected to keep growing at a more moderate pace (at 1.9%) in 2024 and remaining relatively stable in subsequent years (ranging from 1.7% to 1.9%) - delivering some of the best growth compared to other economies in the EU.
▪ Inflation is expected to decelerate gradually over the next three years, from an average of 3.4% in 2023 to 2.2% in 2024, 1.9% in 2025 and 1.8% in 2026, which should trigger cuts in interest rates and subsequently improve yields in the sector in time.
▪ As of 2023, Spain's unemployment rate was reported at 12.1%. The Bank of Spain expects the same trend in the coming years, estimated to be at 11% by 2026.
▪ Household consumption is projected to continue growing, albeit at a moderate pace (CaixaBank Research: 1.9% / BBVA Research: 1.7% in 2024), reflecting continued consumer confidence and spending.
▪ The number of international tourists visiting Spain in 2023 exceeded 85 million which is 18.7% more than in 2022 and 1.9% above 2019 (the pre-pandemic reference year). In addition, Spain has broken tourism spending records, with €108.7million, 24.7% more than in 2022 and 18.2% higher than in 2019. Each tourist spent an average of €1,278 (spent per day: €175), 5.1% more than last year and 16.1% more than in 2019. The average stay also increased to 7.3 days which is a very important parameter in measuring tourism satisfaction.

IN FY23 INVESTMENT DELIVERED C. 15% DIVIDEND YIELD ON OUR AVERAGE IN-PRICE
▪ Lar España has published a good set of results for FY 2023, delivering a total dividend of €66.2million or €0.79 p.s. Castellana is expected to receive a dividend of c. €19million as a c. 29% shareholder, resulting in a running dividend yield of c. 15%.
▪ Out of the €66.2m dividend, c. €58.7millio was ordinary and c. €7.5m came from extraordinary results from the sale of Vistahermosa and Rivas Futura retail parks for €129.1million at a net yield of c. 6.3%.
▪ In line with our consistently guided and applied methodology the impact of the dividend will be evident in the FY25 numbers.
▪ Operationally, Lar España portfolio performed well in FY 2023 with sales and footfall increasing by 8% and +3.7% respectively compared to FY 2022. Generally, all operational metrics were good, and above benchmarks.
▪ The strong performance of the share has cemented the acquisition of the shares of Lar España as an excellent and high performing investment by Castellana. Current share price reflects a c. 30% increase in excess of our in-price, although still at a Large discount of c. 40% to EPRA NTA.
▪ Strong balance sheet and cash proceeds from asset disposals position Lar España well to exploit growth opportunities.
