StockMarketWire.com - London West End property group Shaftesbury booked a deeper first-half loss after the pandemic hurt footfall at retail outlets, squeezing rental income.
Pre-tax losses for the six months through March amounted to £338.5 million, compared to year-on-year losses of £287.6 million, and included negative property revaluations of £342.6 million.
Rental income fell 19% to £48.9 million amid occupier support, reduced rent collections and increased vacancy.
EPRA earnings, an underlying measure watched by analysts, slumped 92% to £2.1 million.
Shaftesbury declared an interim dividend of 2.4p per share, compared to no payment year-on-year.
The company said a phased lifting of Covid-19 restrictions was already resulting in a return of confidence and activity as more-normal patterns of life resume.
