Empiric Student Property plc (Ticker: EPCFF) is a real estate investment trust focused on owning and managing purpose-built student accommodation in the United Kingdom. The company offers modern student housing properties featuring studio apartments, cluster flats with en-suite bedrooms, and shared amenities including study areas, gyms, social lounges, and high-speed Wi-Fi; its brands, such as Chapter and Unite Students-inspired models, cater to university students seeking premium, all-inclusive living with utilities, contents insurance, and 24/7 support services. Empiric operates primarily across key UK university cities like London, Manchester, Nottingham, and Edinburgh, targeting domestic and international students from top-tier institutions. Founded in 2012 and headquartered in London, the company manages a portfolio of over 15,000 beds through direct ownership and management services. In recent developments, Empiric completed a strategic portfolio optimization in 2024 by divesting non-core assets and acquiring high-yield properties in prime locations, alongside forming a partnership with a major UK university for branded residence expansion; it also secured a GBP 150 million refinancing facility in early 2025 to fund new builds amid rising student demand.
