On May 16, 2025, LSGOF reported its earnings before the market opened, achieving an earnings per share (EPS) of $0.32, which aligned with the estimated EPS. The company’s revenue also matched expectations, reaching approximately $482.1 million. This consistency in meeting estimates reflects the company’s stable financial performance.
During the Q4 2025 earnings call, CEO Mark Allan and CFO Vanessa Simms highlighted a 5% increase in like-for-like net rental income, contributing to EPRA earnings of £374 million. The profit before tax reached £393 million, driven by strong leasing momentum and high occupancy rates of 97.2%. This growth was supported by an 8% increase in rents on relettings. The price-to-sales ratio is 5.43, and the enterprise value to sales ratio is 9.92, reflecting investor sentiment and company valuation.
LSGOF’s strategic plans include reallocating £3 billion from offices to fund new retail investments and a £2 billion residential platform by 2030. However, net debt has risen to £4.3 billion, resulting in a loan-to-value ratio of 39.3%. The current ratio of 0.42 suggests potential liquidity concerns, as the company may struggle to cover short-term liabilities.
