Supermarket Income REIT (SUPR) has acquired four supermarkets for £76.0m, taking the total capital deployed since its highly successful £300.0m equity raise in late April to £159.0m. Index-linked rents and accretive acquisitions are the drivers of income growth and progressive DPS, and Edison Group expects further near-term acquisitions despite increasing debt funding costs. Meanwhile, structural trends in the market and the non- discretionary nature of many grocery products support strong tenant covenants.
