EPS Upgrade: FY25 guidance for distributable EPS was raised by 1%, mainly due to the impact of the ongoing $50 million buyback.
Steady Results: Distributable EPS for the half rose 0.4% year-on-year, and distributable earnings were stable at $55.6 million.
Valuation Gains: Net tangible assets per security increased 4.7%, supported by a $96 million valuation gain from cap rate tightening and rent reviews.
Strong Balance Sheet: Gearing remains low at 32.5% pro forma, with liquidity around $140 million after buyback and asset sales.
Minimal Acquisition Appetite: Management sees acquisitions as a low priority due to challenging yields and prefers capital management or OTR funding.

Tobacco Headwinds Managed: Decline in tobacco sales continues to impact convenience stores, but higher-margin product diversification is offsetting the earnings impact.
