What the Analysts think about SAFE
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Safestore Holdings stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Safestore Holdings stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Total H1 2026 revenue grew 6.9% to £120.6 m, with like-for-like sales up 5.0% to £117.3 m, reflecting robust demand across the UK, Paris and Expansion Markets (Investegate (investegate.co.uk)).
Underlying EBITDAR rose 3.7% to £67.9 m and adjusted diluted EPRA EPS increased 2.1% to 19.4 p, demonstrating operational leverage and disciplined cost management in core self-storage operations (Investegate (investegate.co.uk)).
A conservative capital structure—net debt only £1.1008 bn (LTV 29.1%)—paired with on-track delivery of an additional 224,600 sq ft in H2 2026 and a 10% hurdle return on new stores underpin long-term growth capacity (Investegate (investegate.co.uk)).
Volatile property valuations sharply reduced reported operating profit by 52.8% to £53.3 m in H1 2026, compared to a £49.5 m revaluation gain a year earlier, underlining potential earnings swings from market movements (Financial Times (markets.ft.markitdigital.com)).
Group revenue growth decelerated in Q3 2026, rising just 4.1% at CER versus 5.6% in H1 2026, with like-for-like revenue up only 1.9%, signaling potential softening in core markets, notably a 2.5% LFL decline in Paris (Investegate (investegate.co.uk)).
Management expects FY 2026 EPRA EPS to finish in the lower half of analyst forecasts amid guidance for a £2–£3 m increase in net finance costs due to higher floating rates, which may constrain dividend cover and returns (Investegate (investegate.co.uk)).
