Big Yellow stock holds near 887p as market cap stays at £1.74 billion

Big Yellow Group plc (GB0002869419) stock held at 887.00p and carried a market value of £1.739 billion as of August 28, 2026, keeping the self-storage operator close to its recent trading band.

The same market snapshot showed the company at a 52-week high of 920.00p and a 52-week low of 780.00p, which leaves the shares 33.00p below the top of that range.

Latest reported half-year numbers

For the half year to September 30, 2025, Big Yellow reported revenue of £107.8 million and pre-tax profit of £35.0 million, up from £91.5 million and £27.8 million in the prior-year period.

Net asset value per share rose to 1,240p from 1,188p, a gain of 52p, while the interim dividend was 8.9p per share versus 8.6p a year earlier.

What the market is pricing

The latest share price implies investors are still valuing the group well below the peak in the past year, even after the move in reported income and asset value. The gap between 887.00p and 920.00p is small, but it leaves room for sentiment to shift on the next trading update.

That matters because a self-storage landlord's share rating often turns on rent growth, occupancy and balance-sheet strength rather than fast top-line expansion.

Product and customer base

Big Yellow's core offer is large-format urban self-storage, aimed at households and small businesses that need flexible space rather than long leases.

The model is straightforward: rooms, rental growth and disciplined site density drive returns over time.
