Bart Gysens has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight British Land’s strong position in the market. The company’s net asset value (NAV) per share is slightly up for the year, and its shares are trading at a significant discount to this NAV, which suggests potential for upward revaluation. The portfolio’s valuation has seen growth, particularly in retail parks, and the company has successfully signed leases at rates above market expectations, indicating robust demand.
Furthermore, British Land’s management has expressed confidence in future rental growth, supported by a favorable supply-demand dynamic. The company’s strategic focus on development projects, despite the temporary delay in earnings growth, is expected to yield better long-term returns. This strategic positioning, combined with sensible asset yields, is anticipated to drive a re-rating of the stock, making it an attractive investment relative to the broader sector.
According to TipRanks, Gysens is an analyst with an average return of -5.1% and a 41.44% success rate.
