Ascencio The food landlord with an unstuffed pipeline

Today we publish a company note with a deep dive in the Ascencio business model. We keep our target price flat at EUR 51.0 per share and reiterate our HOLD recommendation. This represents an upside of approx. 7.0% to yesterday's close, an 8.8% dividend yield and a 22% discount to the latest reported NTA. We are positive on the out-of-town retail segment and the defensive nature of food retail during a recession. Nevertheless, we remain cautious on the high tenant concentration, the older portfolio requiring maintenance capex and the restructuring of food retailers.
