Big Yellow Group plc (BYLOF)

Executive Summary

Big Yellow Group plc is the United Kingdom’s brand leader in self-storage, a freehold-heavy REIT that owns and operates roughly 110 prime, purpose-built stores concentrated in London and the affluent South-East. US investors can access the shares only through the thinly traded OTC line BYLOF (one OTC share equals one ordinary LSE share, BYG); we strongly prefer the London listing for anyone able to trade it. Note up front that this is a GBP business: all financials below are in pounds sterling, the fiscal year ends 31 March, and we follow EPRA conventions, using EPRA (adjusted diluted) EPS as the FFO-per-share analog.
