We are encouraged by our solid delivery in the final quarter of the year, with full year results expected to be in line with market expectations. We completed our largest-ever investment programme, marked by the opening of art'otel Rome Piazza Sallustio, and we continued to establish the market positions of our recently opened and repositioned properties, including that of the art'otel London Hoxton, to maximise the long-term financial potential of these properties. Our long-term pipeline was strengthened with the acquisition of a mixed-use development site near the City of London."
