Hardman & Co Research: Hudson Quarter, York, development commences

Palace Capital is a real estate investor. It has recently commenced construction of its mixed residential and commercial development at Hudson Quarter, having secured a new £26.5m debt facility and fixed price contract. Supply in this location is tight and the projected gross development value of £65m would thus appear robust. The current site book value is £16.8m. The building contract is £35m (part of a total projected cost of £37m, pre-interest). We note that the full benefit of Hudson Quarter is derived during FY22, when Palace Capital will receive significant free cash. This is one of several factors underpinning significant medium-term expansion in capacity to pay growing dividends.
