Beyond Housing 6months financial report 2021.22 (Draft and Unaudited)

We have set out below in summary our financial results for the six months till the end of September 2021. The results highlight good performance against budget and treasury metrics.

Income & Expenditure

Turnover is marginally behind budget due to development sales profiling. Rental income is on budget and arrears within budget. Operating costs are higher due to the volumes of repair work and higher inflatory material costs as we come out of Covid. Interest payable is below budget as higher costs were estimated before the bond refinanced existing loans and break costs were below budget.

Treasury

Our treasury metrics relate to all lenders. Our golden rules are set higher than lender covenant requirements giving additional headroom. The net debt per unit is specific to one lender only. Our current ratio is higher than target due to the bond refinancing releasing cGBP30m of cash after repaying a portfolio of loans and break costs.
