Net Asset Value(s)

Invista Foundation Property Tst Ltd 26 July 2007 26 July 2007 Invista Foundation Property Trust Limited (the "Company") ANNOUNCEMENT OF NAV AND INTERIM DIVIDEND Invista Foundation Property Trust Limited is pleased to announce a Net Asset Value of 148.89 pence per share as at 30 June 2007 and an interim dividend of 1.6875 pence per share in respect of the period 1 April 2007 to 31 June 2007. The dividend payment will be made on 17 August 2007 to shareholders on the register on 3 August 2007. The ex-dividend date will be on 1 August 2007. The Company's NAV of 148.89 pence per share reflects an uplift of 6.69 pence per share, or 4.70% over the quarter, and 21.09 pence per share or 16.50% over the twelve months to June. This results in a total NAV return for shareholders over the twelve months to June 2007 of approximately 22.40%. The reported NAV takes account of a performance fee accrual to Invista Real Estate Investment Management, the Investment Manager. The quarterly NAV uplift followed an increase in the value of the underlying property portfolio held over the quarter of £17.8 million or 2.5%. The total NAV uplift over the quarter was £23.53 million with £6.73 million of this attributable to an increase in the mark to market value of the Company's interest rate swap. As at 30 June 2007 the Company and its subsidiaries own property assets valued at £722 million. Key highlights during the quarter include: • The Company issued £111 million of AAA-rated securitised debt at a margin of 0.25%. This has been used to re-finance £70 million of non-securitised debt at a materially lower rate, with the balance used to fund ongoing asset management projects and selective acquisitions • The Company's Central London office investments continue to perform strongly, increasing in value by £11.6 million over the quarter. The Company's 21.6% interest in Portman Square House, London W1 increased by £1.86 million or 6% to £33.6 million reflecting the strong rental growth in anticipation of key rent reviews in 2008 • The Salisbury retail warehouse investment, increased in value by £700,000 or 4.44% over the quarter to £16.45 million. This increase in value followed the receipt of planning as well as completing a new lease 20% ahead of the rental value at acquisition. The new lease increases the rent by £300,000 to £820,000 per annum, which following forthcoming rent reviews, should result in a yield on gross purchase cost of approximately 6.0% • Having secured a retail warehouse planning consent at Hinckley last quarter, planning for a major refurbishment and extension of the office in Uxbridge has also been obtained. The consent increases the area from 39,000 sq ft to 70,000 sq ft. The current leases at the property expire this September and a development is being considered • The Company has now exchanged all of the agreements required to commence the major refurbishment project at the retail investment at Victoria Plaza, Bolton. This will increase the current rent from £470,000 per annum to £720,000 per annum with capital expenditure of £1.8 million. The valuation has increased to £11 million, an uplift of £850,000 or 8.4% over the quarter • During the quarter the Company exchanged and subsequently completed the disposal of a shop in Northampton for £2.54 million, reflecting a net initial yield of 4.5%. The Company also sold its health and fitness club in Sefton for £12.83 million, reflecting a profit of £1.9 million over the gross purchase cost in March 2006 of £10.9 million. Finally, the Company has exchanged contracts to sell a small shop in York for £1.94 million, 28% above the March 2007 valuation. Commenting on the announcement, Duncan Owen, Chief Executive, Invista Real Estate Investment Management, said: "The Company's portfolio is strongly positioned providing a combination of active management opportunities to generate capital growth as well as having strong income characteristics. This prepares the Company well for the next period in the UK market. "In addition, we are pleased to report that the Company has taken some important steps this quarter in progressing key asset management initiatives. "At Bolton, we are delighted that this major refurbishment project can now commence, involving the conversion of vacant first floor storage space to retail. This initiative has involved negotiations with six separate retailers and has taken over three years, illustrating the challenges faced in implementing certain complex projects. By contrast, the initiative at Salisbury has progressed more quickly than anticipated and is another example of the Company acquiring assets with strong property fundamentals with opportunities for growth through pro-active asset management. "The completion of the shop disposals of Northampton and the impending completion of York at a price 28% above valuation shows that it is still possible to achieve premium prices. The Company has successfully sold 10 small retail properties in the last 15 months, crystallising significant valuation gains. The disposal of Sefton crystallised a material profit ahead of expectations. "The asset management initiatives such as Hinckley, Uxbridge and other interesting opportunities within the portfolio, combined with the Company's exposure in the Central London office markets should ensure continued future growth. In addition, the debt raised over the quarter is immediately accretive to earnings." -ENDS- For further information: Duncan Owen Invista Real Estate Investment Management Tel: 020 7153 9300 David Sauvarin Northern Trust International Fund Administration services (Guernsey) Ltd Tel: 01481 7455 29 Stephanie Highett / Dido Laurimore Financial Dynamics Tel: 020 7831 3113 This information is provided by RNS The company news service from the London Stock Exchange
