- Basic net asset value increased to 251.4p per share (31 December 2009: 247.2p)
- Increased EPRA net asset value of 304.2p per share (31 December 2009: 279.9p)
- Continued success of our strategy of investing in modern purpose built
healthcare centres - acquisition of properties totalling GBP101.1 m during
period
- Increase in the value of the portfolio from GBP341.9 m to GBP460.8 m
- Property revaluation gain of GBP17.8 m (31 December 2009: GBP1.6 m)
- Annualised rental growth of approximately 3.0%, based on 33 rent reviews
- Increased rent roll at period end of GBP27.6 m
- Portfolio 100% let
- Portfolio, including commitments, valued at GBP487.8 m as at 30 June 2010 on
an initial yield of 5.8%
- White Paper proposals to enhance role of GPs should lead to increased demand
for modern primary healthcare facilities in the medium term
Harry Hyman, Managing Director of Primary Health Properties, commented:
"I am delighted to report PHP's financial performance has again been strong in
the first half of the year with rental growth continuing to be obtained against
a backdrop of full occupancy. This has contributed to increased operating
profit, pre-tax profit and the level of the interim dividend.
The first six months of the year has also seen PHP complete thirty three
acquisitions resulting in the amount of new business properties acquired since
the Company's Autumn 2009 Placing totalling well over GBP100 m at yields at or
above 6%. During the period the new coalition government also outlined proposals
in a White Paper which enhance greatly the role of the GP in NHS services. The
Group believes this will result in significantly increased demand for modern,
purpose built, premises.
PHP remains very well positioned to take advantage of further opportunities
across the UK through the acquisition of suitable investment properties or
funding new development and the Board believes that the primary care market
remains extremely attractive due to the inherent strength of the income stream."

Overview
The Group has had an active first half. During the six months ended 30 June 2010
we completed the acquisition of 33 high quality fully let investments meeting
our acquisition criteria, entered into commitments on three new projects and
took delivery of three completed projects. This takes the amount of new
properties acquired written since our placing and open offer in the Autumn of
2009 to over GBP100 m at yields at or above 6%.

+----------------------------------------+---------+--------+--------+
* On completed properties
** The derivative portfolio is revalued on a mark-to-model basis as opposed to
mark-to-market, as there is no secondary market in Interest Rate Swaps
The underlying profit attributable to the business before the revaluation
increase and the fair value result on derivatives was GBP4.0 m (30 June 2009:
GBP3.2 m) an increase of 25%. The results for the Group for the six months ended
30 June 2010 show a profit after taxation of GBP15.2 m compared with a loss
after taxation of GBP1.8 m for the comparable period to 30 June 2009. This is
after a revaluation surplus of GBP17.8 m (30 June 2009 deficit of GBP8.0 m),
reflecting a tightening of yields. The results also include a mark to model loss
on derivatives of GBP5.0 m (30 June 2009: gain of GBP3.0 m), reflecting the
downward movement in longer term interest rates. The property and derivative
revaluation results are unrealised and do not affect the operating cash flow of
the business.
Portfolio activity
Yields in the primary care property market have continued to tighten and in the
Board's view have stabilised at current levels. The portfolio of completed
properties as at 30 June 2010 was valued at GBP460.8 m representing a true
equivalent yield of 6.0% and an initial yield of 5.8%.This gave rise to a
property revaluation gain of GBP17.8 m compared to GBP1.6 m at 31 December 2009.
In addition to the acquisitions, work has continued to enhance the quality of
the estate. We commenced work on a number of projects including Ritchie Street,
Islington and The Old Fire Station, Woolston. We also received planning
permission for the addition of a pharmacy at Burton Latimer, which we intend to
commence work on in the second half of the year. These improvements have created
over GBP1 m of valuation enhancement based on the latest valuation yields and
will ultimately produce GBP63,000 per annum in extra rental income.
There were however unavoidable delays to the forecast delivery of our projects
at both Treharris and Connah's Quay. These delays resulted in some loss of
rental income but completion was achieved by 30 June 2010. We also took delivery
of a completed scheme at Sheffield and entered into new commitments at Oswestry
(GBP8.8 m), Blackpool (GBP4.1 m) and Allesley (GBP2.8 m).

The Group purchased 33 investment properties during the period including the
Health Investment's portfolio of 14 health centres and the Care Capital
portfolio, which also comprises 14 health centres.
Health Investment's Portfolio
In June 2010, PHP entered into a contract to acquire the entire issued share
capital of Health Investments Limited ("HI") for a total consideration of some
GBP38.4 m. HI had around GBP28.3 m of debt, which was assumed as part of the
deal. The acquisition delivered 14 primary care properties with an average
valuation of approximately GBP2.8 m and a rent roll of GBP2.4 m. The properties
are principally in the South East and have an average lease length outstanding
of some 19 years. The debt acquired matches the profile of the leases and has
approximately 19 years to run at an average cost of 6% pa. The Group paid GBP7.3
m in cash and issued 1,005,153 ordinary shares at 290p each in part
consideration in addition to the assumption of the debt as announced on 23 June
2010. Following the issue of the ordinary shares, which were admitted to the
official list of the UKLA on 28 June 2010, the total numbers of ordinary shares
with voting rights is 62,571,174. The shares issued as consideration for the
HI?acquisition are subject to a six month lock in and subsequent 12 months
orderly market agreement.
Care Capital Portfolio
The Group acquired Sinclair Montrose Properties Limited ("SMP"), a wholly owned
subsidiary of Care Capital Group plc in February 2010. This acquisition included
a portfolio of 14 modern medical centres. The consideration was approximately
GBP23.5 m including the repayment of debt secured on the portfolio. The total
rent roll including outstanding rent reviews on this portfolio is GBP1.4 m p.a.
and the unexpired lease term 17.8 years.
Other Corporate Acquisitions
In addition to HI and SMP the Group completed three other corporate acquisitions
(Abstract, Anchor Meadow and Charter Medinvest), for a total consideration of
GBP16.7 m. These acquisitions added four properties to the portfolio with an
average valuation of GBP4.6 m and a rent roll of GBP1.1 m. The properties are
spread throughout the UK and had an average lease length outstanding of some
18.3 years.
All of the corporate transactions have been treated as asset acquisitions (see
note 3).
Commitments
Three new commitments totalling GBP15.7 m were entered into during the six
months ended 30 June 2010 as shown below:

Disposals
There were no disposals during the period.
Rental growth
Rental growth achieved on rent reviews concluded in the year ended 31 December
2009 averaged 3.12% p.a. (equivalent to approximately 10.0% for a typical three
year review pattern). The experience in the first half of 2010 is that rental
growth has averaged 3.1% p.a. (equivalent to approximately 10.0% for a typical
three year review pattern). This performance is in line with our direct
competitors and constitutes an out performance of the wider property market
which has experienced declining or stable rents across a number of its sectors.
The portfolio is 100% let and tenants are in place for all properties under
construction.

Property valuation
The freehold, leasehold and development properties of the Group have been
independently valued at fair value by Lambert Smith Hampton, Chartered Surveyors
and Valuers, as at 30 June 2010.
During the six months ended 30 June 2010 there has been a further tightening of
yields resulting in a valuation gain of GBP17.8 m during the period. The
valuation reflected an initial yield at 30 June of 5.78% and a true equivalent
yield of 6.00%. This compares with yields of 6.00% and 6.24% respectively at the
end of the previous year.
Discounted cash flow property valuation
In addition to the market value exercise performed by Lambert Smith Hampton, the
Joint Managers monitor the value of the Group's completed investment portfolio
based on a discounted cash flow analysis. On this basis, the valuation of
delivered assets as at 30 June 2010 is GBP508.6 m compared to the market value
of GBP460.8 m (31 December 2009: GBP368.0 m compared to the market value of
GBP341.9 m). The difference of GBP47.8 m represents an additional 77.6p of net
asset value per share. In this calculation current passing rent until expiry
totalling GBP623 m contributed 67% of the discounted cash flow valuation.
The assumptions used in the discounted cash flow analysis are:
- A discount rate of 7% (31 December 2009: 7%);
- An average annual increase in the individual property rents at review of 2.5%
(31 December 2009: 2.5%);
- Capital growth in residual values of 1% per annum (2009: 1%); and
- In the case of each property, the DCF analysis is over the remaining period of
the lease at 30 June 2010.
Comparative values using the discount rates below are as follows:
+------------------------------+------------------------------+
| Discount rate | Value |
+------------------------------+------------------------------+
| 6.50% | GBP536.0 m |

Association).
Sector performance
The IPD Healthcare Index for 2009 was released in May 2010 and showed an overall
return of 5.4% against the IPD All Property return of 3.5%. Primary care assets,
including PHP's portfolio, make up almost half of the index and produced an
overall return of 8.8%. Based on the IPD index, Healthcare has outperformed All
Properties over the past three years with an annualised return of +3.9% versus
-0.8%.
Borrowings
As at 30 June 2010 Group borrowings were GBP257.7 m including GBP28.3 m of fixed
interest facilities taken on as part of the HI acquisition and GBP3.0 m of
variable interest facilities as part of the Abstract acquisition (see Note 12).
As required by International Accounting Standards the reported debt in the
balance sheet is shown net of amortised borrowing costs. Excluding these
acquired facilities the aggregate facilities are GBP265 m of which GBP255 m was
on a term loan basis and GBP10 m on an overdraft basis. These term facilities
are not due for renewal/replacement until 2013. The secured facilities from
Aviva acquired with HI are amortising over 19 years, which matches the average
length of the underlying leases on the properties acquired.
The Group has agreed heads of terms for a new GBP25 m facility with ING
Commercial Finance Ltd. This five year term loan is currently being documented
and it will enable the Group to continue with its policy of acquisitions and the
forward funding of new developments.
The Group is also examining other options to refinance both its existing
facilities and provide expansion finance.
The loan to value ratio as at 30 June 2010 was 55.9% (adjusted for the final
payment made for Connah's Quay in July the ratio was 57.9%) compared to a
covenant requirement of 70%, whilst interest cover was 2.0x compared to a
covenant requirement of 1.3x.

The amount of fixed rate cover in place at 30 June 2010 (including GBP88 m of
callable swaps (2009: GBP88 m) was GBP203.0 m (2009: GBP193 m). Basis rate swaps
totalling GBP200 m matured on 11 February 2010. The callable swaps were not
called on 11 August 2010. The next date on which they may be called is 11
November 2010.
All swaps are taken out to mitigate exposure to interest rate risk, but under
accounting rules only certain swaps qualify as "effective" hedges and the mark
to model movement on these is matched against the hedged liability in the
Balance Sheet.
The mark-to-model value of the Group's "effective" interest rate swaps decreased
by GBP7.8 m in the period to 30 June 2010 (six months to 30 June 2009: gain of
GBP9.1 m), reflecting the continued decline in medium term interest rates and
ongoing volatility. There is no cash flow impact from these mark to model
adjustments. This loss is charged directly to reserves but is included in the
condensed statement of comprehensive income result on page 30. The revaluation
of swaps regarded as ineffective for IAS39 purposes was a loss of GBP5.0 m (six
months to 30 June 2009: gain of GBP3.0 m), which is included in the profit for
the period. The mark-to-model value fluctuates with movements in term interest
rates and, in the case of the callable swaps, with market volatility.

* The tables above show the weighted average amount hedged throughout each
financial year for the period to 31 December 2027. The tables assume that the
term loans to the Group, which expire in 2013 will be renewed.
Revenue and Expenditure
Total revenue in the six months ending 30 June 2010 was GBP12.0m, an increase of
12.6% over the comparative period (6 months ended 30 June 2009: GBP10.7m). Total
expenditure excluding finance costs was GBP2.2m (6 months ended 30 June 2009:
GBP2.2m).
Dividend
On 26 March 2010 the Group paid an ordinary cash dividend of 8.75p per Ordinary
Share in respect of the six months ended 31 December 2009. The Board proposes to
pay an interim dividend of 8.75p per share payable to Ordinary Shareholders on
the register at 24 September 2010 on 29 October 2010 in respect of the six
months ended 30 June 2010. No property income distributions ("PIDs") have been
paid since 1 January 2007 when the Board advised that dividends would either be
cash, PIDs or a combination of the two. Shareholders will be offered the
opportunity to receive the interim cash dividend in respect of the six months
ended 30 June 2010 in new ordinary shares through a scrip dividend and a
circular is expected to be posted to shareholders on 1 October 2010.

Principal risks and uncertainties
Other than the impact of the White Paper referred to below, there have been no
changes to the principal risks and uncertainties of the Group which remain as
disclosed on page 11 of the Annual Financial Report for the year ended 31
December 2009 and the Directors consider that the principal risks and
uncertainities are likely to remain unchanged for the remainder of the year.
The White Paper
The Group welcomes the initiatives announced on Monday 12 July by Secretary of
State for Health Andrew Lansley in the Department of Health's White Paper
"Equity and excellence: Liberating the NHS". The White Paper proposes the
creation of a regulated market in the purchasing and provision of care via the
creation of several hundred GP consortia which would be overseen by a new
independent Board and a new economic regulator.
The proposals in the White Paper and subsequent Government guidance notes
foresee Primary Care Trusts ("PCTs") obligations for primary care being taken
over by the NHS National Commissioning Board, which will have the status of a
Special Health Authority. The existing contractual obligations of the PCTs,
including rent reimbursements, are covered by the Residual Liabilities Act 1996
and will pass to another NHS body as PCTs are phased out.
The Group believes that the greatly enhanced role of the GP in the provision of
NHS services will result in significantly increased demand for modern purpose
built premises benefiting a modern health service environment in the medium
term.
There may also be opportunities for PHP to acquire assets all or part of which
are directly owned by PCTs at present.
Outlook
The role of primary care in the delivery of healthcare within the NHS is
envisaged to significantly expand with the publication of the Government's White
Paper. The Paper's aim is to shift a substantial proportion of care from
hospitals to community settings and facilities and there is likely to be strong
demand for new primary care developments. Within our existing portfolio the
performance has been consistently strong with rental growth continuing to be
obtained against a backdrop of full occupancy.
We are well positioned to take advantage of opportunities across the UK through
the acquisition of suitable investment properties or funding new developments.
We continue to believe that the primary care market remains extremely attractive
due to the inherent strength of the income stream.

Acquisition Activity
The Quay Health Centre, Fron Road, Connahs Quay
This new centre was developed by Haven Health Properties. The GBP10.2 m building
provides 3,500 sqm of accommodation across three floors to 16,500 patients, and
is now the main facility for the provision of Primary Care services for Connah's
Quay, North Wales. All three of the town's Medical Practices now operate from
the centre, and are complemented by an extensive range of Community based
healthcare services run by North East Wales NHS Trust, together with a café
operated by the council. The centre benefits from approximately 110 on-site car
parking spaces.
Whitely Surgery, Yew Tree Drive, Fareham
The Whiteley Surgery, Fareham, comprises 900 sqm of accommodation over two
storeys, and is let to a doctor's surgery and a pharmacy. There is also a
complementary therapies suite within the centre, run by the doctors, which
provides additional services including Physiotherapy, Osteopathy, Podiatry and
Reflexology. The centre has been fitted out to a high standard internally and
provides approximately 30 on-site car parking spaces. Completed in November
2006, the centre was brought into the PHP portfolio as part of the GBP38.4 m
Health Investments acquisition completed in June 2010.
Treharris Primary Care Centre, Fox Street, Treharris
This new, three storey Primary Care Centre was delivered in May 2010 by Haven
Health Properties at a cost of approximately GBP4.6 m. The centre provides 1,500
sqm of accommodation for a range of services including General Medical, NHS
Dental, Community Health and Voluntary. There is also an adjacent satellite
building comprising a local Pharmacy and further offices let to the Local Health
Board. The centre is the new hub for medical services and serves approximately
15,000 patients.
Commitments
Shefford, Bedfordshire
A new two storey development in Shefford (approximately 5 miles south of
Bedford) to replace the existing under-sized Shefford Health Centre. The new
centre will provide approximately 2,200 sqm of accommodation for both the
existing practice and Bedfordshire PCT, serving over 15,000 patients. The new
centre will provide a number of enhanced community services usually performed in
a secondary care environment, including Diagnostic services, Minor Surgery and
Counselling amongst other specialist services.
The centre is being developed by Brackley Investments, and will cost PHP in the
region of GBP5.3 m once completed in February 2011.
Blackpool, Lancashire
A development of a new three storey medical centre and pharmacy extending to
approximately 1,500 sqm, to provide accommodation for the practice of Dr. Ward &
Partners. The proposed centre replaces the existing GP accommodation, currently
split between two outdated converted houses, whilst also providing a new base
for PCT community staff including district nurses, health visitors and midwives.
A dental training suite is also to be provided to allow the PCT to work with the
Deanery to deliver an enhanced level of dental training within Blackpool. The
centre will serve more than 12,000 patients.
The centre is being developed by Brackley Investments and will cost PHP
approximately GBP4.1 m once completed in September 2011.

Condensed notes to the financial statements
1. Accounting policies
General information
The financial information set out in this report does not constitute statutory
accounts as defined in Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. The Group's
statutory financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2009 have been
filed with the Registrar of Companies. The auditors' report on these financial
statements was unqualified and did not contain a statement under section 498(2)
of the Companies Act 2006.
Basis of preparation/Statement of compliance
The half year report for the six months ended 30 June 2010 has been prepared in
accordance with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting' and reflects the accounting
policies set out in the Group's financial statements at 31 December 2009 which
have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the European Union. The
acquisitions during the six months ended 30 June 2010 have been treated as asset
acquisitions (See note 3).
The half year report does not include all the information and disclosures
required in the statutory financial statements and should be read in conjunction
with the Group's financial statements as at 31 December 2009.
Convention
The financial statements are presented in Sterling rounded to the nearest
thousand.
Segmental reporting
The Directors are of the opinion that the Group is engaged in a single segment
of business being investment in property in the United Kingdom leased
principally to GPs, NHS organisations and other associated health care users.
Going concern
The Group's property portfolio is 100% let to tenants with strong covenants.
The Group's borrowing facilities are not due for renewal until 2013 and the loan
to value ratio was 55.9% at 30 June 2010, well below the banking covenant of
70%. The pipeline of properties remains strong. Having reviewed the Group's
current position, cash flow projections, loan facilities and covenant cover, the
Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to
continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus they
continue to adopt a going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
2. Investment and investment properties under construction
Properties have been independently valued at fair value by?Lambert Smith
Hampton, Chartered Surveyors and Valuers, as at 30 June 2010 in accordance with
IAS 40: Investment Property.
The revaluation gain for the six months ended 30 June 2010 amounted to GBP17.8
m. The revaluation gain for the year ended 31 December 2009 amounted to GBP1.6 m
and the loss for the six months ended 30 June 2009 amounted to GBP8.0 m.
Property additions (including capitalised interest costs of GBP0.2 m relating to
contracts) for the six months ended 30 June 2010 amounted to GBP101.1 m. There
were no properties disposed of in the six months to 30 June 2010. Commitments
at 30 June 2010 amounted to GBP24.0 m (31 December 2009: GBP26.1 m).
Property additions for the 12 months ended 31 December 2009 and the six months
ended 30 June 2009 amounted to GBP23.4 m and GBP6.9 m respectively. There were
no property disposals during these periods.
3. Property acquisitions
As referred to in the operating and financial review the Group has acquired 33
fully let investments through five corporate transactions and one property
acquisition during the six months to 30 June 2010. These acquisitions have been
treated as asset acquisitions.

4. Fixed asset investment
The fixed asset investment is held as an available for sale ("AFS") asset in
accordance with IAS 39. The unrealized gain on the investment is recognized
through the statement of changes in equity. The fixed asset investment acquired
during the six months to 30 June 2010 at a cost of GBP476,000 represents
ordinary shares acquired in AH?Medical Properties PLC and has been valued at the
quoted price on 30 June 2010 of GBP605,000.
5. Earnings per share
The purpose of calculating an adjusted earnings per share is to provide a better
indication of dividend cover for the period by excluding large one-off items
affecting earnings per share during the period.

accounting does not apply. A further fair value loss on hedges which meet the
hedge effectiveness criteria under IAS 39 of GBP7.8 m (31 December 2009: gain of
GBP7.7 m) is accounted for directly in equity.

Independent review report to Primary Health Properties PLC
Introduction
We have been engaged by the Company to review the condensed set of financial
statements in the half-yearly financial report for the six months ended 30 June
2010 which comprises the Condensed Group Statement of Comprehensive Income,
Condensed Group Balance Sheet, Condensed Group Cash Flow Statement, Condensed
Group Statement of Changes in Equity and the related notes 1 to 14. We have read
the other information contained in the half-yearly financial report and
considered whether it contains any apparent misstatements or material
inconsistencies with the information in the condensed set of financial
statements.
This report is made solely to the Company in accordance with guidance contained
in International Standard on Review Engagements 2410 (UK and Ireland) "Review
of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the
Entity" ("ISRE 2410") issued by the Auditing Practices Board. To the fullest
extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone
other than the Company, for our work, for this report, or for the conclusions we
have formed.
Directors' responsibilities
The half-yearly financial report is the responsibility of, and has been approved
by, the Directors. The Directors are responsible for preparing the half-yearly
financial report in accordance with the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the
United Kingdom's Financial Services Authority. As disclosed in note 1, the
annual financial statements of the Group are prepared in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards "IFRS" as adopted by the European
Union. The condensed set of financial statements included in this half-yearly
financial report has been prepared in accordance with International Accounting
Standard 34, "Interim Financial Reporting", as adopted by the European Union.
Our responsibility
Our responsibility is to express to the Company a conclusion on the condensed
set of financial statements in the half-yearly report based on our review.
Scope of review
We conducted our review in accordance with ISRE 2410 (UK?and Ireland) issued by
the Auditing Practices Board for use in the United Kingdom. A review of interim
financial information consists of making enquiries primarily of persons
responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and
other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit
conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK?and
Ireland) and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would
become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit.
Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe
that the condensed set of financial statements in the half-yearly financial
report for the six months ended 30 June 2010 is not prepared, in all material
respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 as adopted by
the European Union and the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the United
Kingdom's Financial Services Authority.
