INCLUSION HOUSING CIC'S REGULATORY JUDGEMENT

 

The Board of Social Housing REIT plc (LON: SOHO), is pleased
to announce that Inclusion Housing Community Interest Company ("Inclusion")
has received a compliant G2 V2 regulatory grading by the Regulator of Social
Housing ("RSH").

Inclusion is SOHO's largest lessee, representing approximately 30% of its
annual rental income. As of 31 December 2025, Inclusion leases 124 properties
from the Company, providing homes for 911 vulnerable adults.

This is a landmark moment for SOHO and the specialised supported housing
("SSH") sector as Inclusion is the first predominantly lease-based housing
provider to receive a compliant governance and viability rating by the RSH.

The Board believes this judgement represents a positive development for the
sector, providing further evidence that well-managed, lease-based providers
can operate successfully within the regulatory framework while continuing to
deliver high-quality homes and services for vulnerable residents.

Jos Short, Chair of Social Housing REIT plc, commented:

"We congratulate Inclusion Housing on achieving a compliant G2 V2 grading from
the RSH. Inclusion has been a longstanding and valued partner of Social
Housing REIT and plays an important role in providing high-quality specialised
supported housing for vulnerable adults across the UK."

Michael Carey, Managing Director of Atrato, commented:

"We have an excellent working relationship with Inclusion and we are delighted
to see their hard work and high-quality service recognised by the RSH. This
outcome reflects the strength of Inclusion's governance, financial management
and operational platform. We look forward to continuing our partnership with
Inclusion as it delivers much-needed homes and support services for
residents."

consist of Housing Associations and Local Authorities, or other regulated
organisations in receipt of direct rental payments from local Government.

These operational residential properties deliver sustainable, long-term,
growing income for shareholders, improved outcomes for residents and savings
to the taxpayer.
