Derwent London Plc (DWVYF) — VMCI valuation read

Derwent London Plc sits at VMCI 52/100, with the Real Estate sector median at 50. That 2-point spread is the first thing to note on DWVYF: it tells the reader the composite is favorable before any single ratio is examined, and the mid-cap tier sets the comparison set.

Form 4 disclosures on DWVYF are blank for the trailing 30 days. With the insider channel offline, the EV/EBITDA delta, free-cash-flow trajectory, and the next earnings print do the talking.

**Investor frame.** The Value read on DWVYF: DWVYF trades at 20.0x earnings, 11% above the Real Estate median of 18.0x, with EV/EBITDA at 13.0x against 12.0x. The Quality read: ROIC of 16.0% sits 6.0pp above the Real Estate median (10.0%). The Risk read: net debt to EBITDA of 0.7x leaves covenant headroom, anchoring the bear scenario on a measurable balance-sheet metric.

DWVYF rose 2.7% over the trailing 7 days, with a -20.7% read on a 30-day basis.

Derwent London plc owns 83 buildings in a commercial real estate portfolio predominantly in central London valued at £5.4 billion (including joint ventures) as at 30 June 2020, making it the largest London-focused real estate investment trust (REIT). Our experienced team has a long track record of creating value throughout the property cycle by regenerating our buildings via development or refurbishment, effective asset management and capital recycling. We typically acquire central London properties off-market with low capital values and modest rents in improving locations, most of which are either in the West End or the Tech Belt. We capitalise on the unique qualities of each of our properties - taking a fresh approach to the regeneration of every building with a focus on anticipating tenant requirements and an emphasis on design. Reflecting and supporting our long-term success, the business has a strong balance sheet with modest leverage, a robust income stream and flexible financing. As part of our commitment to lead the industry in mitigating climate change, in October 2019, Derwent London became the first UK REIT to sign a Green Revolving Credit Facility. At the same time, we also launched our Green Finance Framework and signed the Better Buildings Partnership's climate change commitment. The Group is a member of the 'RE100' which recognises Derwent London as an influential company, committed to 100% renewable power by purchasing renewable energy, a key step in becoming a net zero carbon business. Derwent London is one of only a few property companies worldwide to have science-based carbon targets validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Landmark schemes in our 5.6 million sq ft portfolio include 80 Charlotte Street W1, Brunel Building W2, White Collar Factory EC1, Angel Building EC1, 1-2 Stephen Street W1, Horseferry House SW1 and Tea Building E1. In 2019, the Group won several awards including EG Offices Company of the Year, the CoStar West End Deal of the Year for Brunel Building, Westminster Business Council's Best Achievement in Sustainability award and topped the real estate sector and was placed ninth overall in the Management Today 2019 awards for 'Britain's Most Admired Companies'. In 2013 the Company launched a voluntary Community Fund and has to date supported over 100 community projects in the West End and the Tech Belt. The Company is a public limited company, which is listed on the London Stock Exchange and incorporated and domiciled in the UK. The address of its registered office is 25 Savile Row, London,
