SECOND INTERIM DIVIDEND
Schroder European Real Estate Investment Trust plc (the "Company") announces its second interim dividend in
respect of the year ended 30 September 2018 of 1.85 euro cents per share.
The dividend is approximately 100% covered from recurring income from the portfolio. This excludes the impact
of the receipt of €2.4m in respect of the first payment for the Hamburg lease surrender. Including the Hamburg
surrender premium receipt the dividend cover is 172%.
The declared dividend represents an annualised rate of 5.5% based on the euro equivalent of the issue price at
admission, fulfilling the target dividend stated at IPO. Based on the Euro: GBP exchange rate as at 31 March
2018, this equates to an annualised rate of 6.5% on the GBP issue price at IPO of 100 pence per share.
Total interim dividends declared to date relating to the year ending 30 September 2018 amount to 3.7 euro
cents per share. This represents an increase of 68% over the same period in respect of the year ended 30
September 2017.
The interim dividend payment will be made on Friday, 20 July 2018 to shareholders on the register on the record
