Warehouses De Pauw Conference call feedback, confident on execution

The tone in the call is cautious optimistic on the targets of the Blend27 program. The company stays focused on its 5 countries. In The Netherlands it is slow due to grid limitations. In France they have established a position and work on extending it. In Germany, prices and opportunities in the right regions have not occurred. Romania has just announced a development and acquired 400k sqm land. In Belgium, the Amazon €1bn will be spread over multiple investments and WDP is looking at the Audi approx. 60Ha site in Vorst (BXL). WDP repeated it has enough auto-finance, stock dividend and CiK potential to add an annual base-volume of €500m to its portfolio. If something bigger comes along, they look at the merits on EPS accretion. The recent Moody upgrade gives it a slight edge against lower rated competitors. We believe “boring is good” in the current market, you see what you get.
