NEW GBP50 MILLION INTEREST RATE CAP AT 4%. 92% OF DRAWN DEBT IS
NOW HEDGED
In the first half year results announcement on 9 August 2023,
the Group indicated that it was looking to increase the level of
hedging in place. The Board of Directors of Impact Healthcare REIT
plc (ticker: IHR), is pleased to announce that it has completed
this process, and the Group has purchased a new GBP50 million
interest rate cap, which caps SONIA at 4.0% for two years expiring
on 15 August 2025, at a cost of GBP1.76 million.
The Group has now hedged or fixed the interest rates on 92%
(GBP175 million)(1) of its current drawn debt of GBP191 million.
The weighted average cost of drawn debt is 4.66%(2) based on SONIA
of 5.4%. At current hedging and drawn debt levels, an increase of
50 bps in SONIA will result in a 4 bps increase in the weighted
average cost of drawn debt(2) .
The Group's gross loan to value ("LTV") ratio at 30 June 2023
was 28.5%. No further debt has been drawn at the date of this
announcement.
