Pangbourne Properties Limited has declared a final distribution of 49 cents per
unit for the year ending 30 June 2004 bringing the total declared for the year
to 91,5 cents per unit, an increase of 2,8% on the previous year.
According to Pangbourne CEO, Athol Campbell, the past year has seen many changes
within Pangbourne`s portfolio beginning with the transfer of properties to the
value of R246 million to iFour in return for a 50% strategic stake in the
company. iFour recently announced an increased distribution 4% higher than
forecast. The company holds a well diversified portfolio of `A` grade
properties totaling R1,8 billion. These properties are in turn managed by
Pangbourne.
The recently announced purchase of a portfolio of properties totaling R439
million, will bring the total properties managed by Pangbourne to R 3,358
billion and the total assets under administration to R4 billion.
Occupancies remain high in the portfolio as the demand for space continues to
increase in line with the increase in the manufacturing indices.
`Industrial rentals have started increasing in certain geographic areas and this
trend is expected to continue, although security costs remain a continuing
problem,` said Campbell.
Pangbourne Chairman Peter Campbell also announced today that Craig Hutchison
would be joining the Pangbourne Board as an Executive Director.
