EFFECTS OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC ON KOJAMO

Kojamo takes the coronavirus seriously and is committed to looking after the health and well-being of the Group's employees, customers and partners. Kojamo monitors the recommendations issued by the authorities and complies with them.

The Group's day-to-day operations have continued normally in spite of the exceptional circumstances. The systems used at Kojamo enable remote work, and employees switched to working remotely, for the most part, starting from 16 March. The transition went smoothly and did not cause any disruptions to services. All of Kojamo's development projects have progressed as planned in spite of the pandemic.

Lumo Home Centres throughout Finland are currently closed, but customer service operates via digital channels and by phone. The My Lumo online service offered to residents enables effective communication with residents regarding exceptional arrangements. Thanks to the Lumo webstore, apartment rental operations have continued almost as normal, and customers can rent an apartment without physical contact by taking advantage of safe virtual tours of apartments. Non-urgent maintenance and repair visits have been postponed to ensure the safety of residents. Restrictions have been introduced on the use of shared facilities, such as saunas and club rooms. Kojamo offers flexibility to residents with regard to rent payment.

Kojamo's financial position and liquidity are good. At the end of the review period, Kojamo's cash and cash equivalents stood at EUR 237.3 (206.5) million and liquid financial assets at EUR 70.9 (187.5) million. The Group also had EUR 300 million in unused credit limits. Kojamo has taken measures to ensure its financing during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the Group's diverse financing structure supports this. In March, Kojamo strengthened its financial position further by signing an agreement with OP Corporate Bank on a 5.5-year unsecured loan in the amount of EUR 75 million for the Group's general corporate purposes. Kojamo also increased its cash and cash equivalents on a precautionary basis by increasing the issuance of commercial papers.

OUTLOOK FOR KOJAMO IN 2020 (specified)

Kojamo estimates that in 2020, the Group's total revenue will increase by 2–6 per cent year-onyear. In addition, the company estimates that the Group's FFO for 2020 will amount to between EUR 146–158 million, excluding non-recurring costs (previously EUR 142–156 million).

The outlook takes into account the effects of the completed housing divestments and acquisitions, the estimated occupancy rate and rises in rents, as well as the number of apartments to be completed. The outlook is based on the management's assessment of total revenue, net rental income, administrative expenses, financial expenses, taxes to be paid and new development to be completed, as well as the management's view on future developments in the operating environment.

Additionally, the outlook is based on strong demand sustained by migration, which will increase Like-for-Like rental income. The management can influence total revenue and FFO through the company's business operations. In contrast, the management has no influence over market trends, the regulatory environment or the competitive landscape.

Effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on Kojamo's outlook

In spite of the pandemic, Kojamo's management expects the Group's operating activities to continue undisrupted for the most part. The webstore enables the renting of apartments to continue almost as normal. The pandemic has not led to an increase in the Group's rental receivables, and

they are not expected to grow significantly in the near future. Kojamo follows the development of rental receivables and credit losses actively. Kojamo aims to prevent increases in rental receivables through active resident advisory services as well as payment plans and arrangements agreed on with customers.

Kojamo's management estimates that the demand for rental apartments will remain strong going forward. The restrictions implemented in response to the pandemic may, in the short term, affect people's willingness to relocate as well as prevent both migration within the country and work-related immigration. Economic uncertainty may influence people's willingness to take housing loans, which may increase the popularity of rental housing.

Kojamo will continue to implement its growth strategy. All development projects have progressed as planned thus far. However, challenges potentially faced by construction companies may result in delays to Kojamo's projects. In Kojamo's construction contracts, the construction company takes on the overall responsibility for the entire construction project and payments are made in accordance with the degree of completion. Kojamo's management estimates that potential delays in projects will not have a material impact on the Group's total revenue and FFO for the year.

Kojamo's financial position and liquidity are good. Thanks to the Group's diverse financing structure, Kojamo has been able to carry out financing arrangements without disruptions. Kojamo's management estimates that if the financial markets continue to be unstable, the cost of new financing may significantly increase.

CEO'S REVIEW

We had a strong start to 2020 at Kojamo. Our total revenue, net rental income and FFO increased year-on-year, driven by the growth of our housing stock and Like-for-Like rental income. The fair value of our investment properties was EUR 6.3 billion at the end of the period. Our financial occupancy rate remained on a par with the comparison period.

The coronavirus pandemic has quickly changed the world. Nevertheless, we have been able to adjust our operations to the current circumstances and successfully transferred all of our customer service and rental operations to home offices, for example. Thanks to our webstore, apartment rental operations have continued almost as normal, and customers can rent an apartment without physical contact. We offer flexibility to our residents with regard to rent payments and we have taken precautionary measures at our properties to prevent and limit the spread of the pandemic. For the time being, all of our construction sites remain operational and we are monitoring the situation continuously.

In spite of the pandemic, we expect the trend of urbanisation to continue, and we will continue to execute our growth strategy as planned. During the first months of the year, we further increased the number of property development projects. In March, we announced a cooperation agreement signed with SRV on the construction of 676 apartments in Helsinki and Espoo. One of the new development projects is a tower building to be constructed next to the Redi shopping centre, which will literally take rental housing to a new level. We also announced the start of construction projects in Espoo and Vantaa. We started construction on 454 new apartments during the first quarter and we currently have as many as 1,651 apartments under construction.

Our liquidity was at a good level at the end of the period. In March, we established a EUR 2.5 billion EMTN (Euro Medium Term Notes) programme, under which we can issue unsecured notes. The programme covers our financing needs for the current strategy period as well as the refinancing of bonds that will mature thereafter. We have also taken measures to strengthen our financial position in the current pandemic. The availability of financing has been supported by our diverse financing structure. We have increased our cash and cash equivalents on a precautionary basis by increasing the issuance of commercial papers.

We are moving ahead with our service development efforts, and our focus this year is particularly on developing Kojamo's digital road map. During the first quarter, we further improved our webstore, which serves as the customer interface for all of our rental operations. The popularity of the webstore is growing continuously. In the first quarter, the number of tenancy agreements signed in the webstore was higher than the number of agreements signed following a traditional application.

OPERATING ENVIRONMENT

General operating environment

As Kojamo operates in the residential real estate sector, the company is affected particularly by urbanisation as well as the situation in the residential property market and development in Finnish growth centres. The company is also affected by macroeconomic factors, such as economic growth, employment, disposable income, inflation and population growth.

According to the Ministry of Finance's forecast, the coronavirus pandemic will dampen economic activity everywhere. The current forecast suggests that the economy will contract by 5.5 per cent this year. The Ministry of Finance estimates that the impacts are at their highest in the second quarter, and a strong recovery is expected as early as in the third quarter. This forecast is based on the assumption that the restrictions will remain in place for three months. Prolonged restrictions could have an even more drastic impact; if restrictions remain in place for six months, the economy may contract by as much as 12 per cent. The estimates of the duration of the restrictions aimed at preventing the spread of the coronavirus are constantly changing, which creates exceptional uncertainty in estimating future development. The restrictive measures implemented in response to the coronavirus epidemic will significantly reduce private consumption this year. The decrease in purchasing power caused by temporary layoffs and higher unemployment will also reduce the consumption of goods. (Source: Ministry of Finance, Economic survey 4/2020)

According to the Ministry of Finance's economic survey, the effects of the coronavirus epidemic on the construction industry may include difficulties with the availability of labour, material shortages and delays to the start of planned new construction projects. Construction volume is predicted to also decline next year and subsequently turn to growth in 2022. The decline in residential real estate investments will be sharpest in 2020 due to delays in starting construction projects during the first part of the year. Residential start-ups are estimated to contract by several thousand units until

2021, followed by a return towards the long-term average, which is slightly under 32,000 units per year. (Source: Ministry of Finance, Economic survey 4/2020)

According to Pellervo Economic Research, increased economic uncertainty makes people postpone their plans to buy a home. When the economy dips, many people earn lower incomes due to layoffs and redundancies. They may be unwilling to take a home loan in such circumstances.

Urbanisation will continue in the long term. According to Pellervo Economic Research (PTT), the trend of urbanisation has continued in Finland even stronger than expected, and rapid urbanisation is currently the most significant driving force behind the development of the housing market. People in cities want to live in city centres even if their job is located outside the city centre. The significance of location and services is becoming increasingly highlighted in people's housing needs. Commuting from cities to rural areas for work is growing substantially.

Households living in rental homes outnumber those living in owner-occupied housing in Helsinki. The use of rental housing will also grow to exceed the use of owner-occupied housing in Tampere and Turku in the near future. This is a strong sign of the acceleration of urbanisation on the one hand and the change in housing preferences on the other hand. For younger generations, owning a home is not as significant as it was for previous generations. Owning a home is also no longer seen as the only way to accumulate wealth. Instead, people are increasingly attracted by the freedom provided by rental housing. This will support the development of the rental housing market for a long time to come.

BUSINESS OPERATIONS

Kojamo is the largest1 private residential real estate company in Finland measured by the fair value of investment properties. Kojamo offers rental apartments and housing services for tenants primarily in Finnish growth centres2 . At the end of the review period, Kojamo's property portfolio comprised 35,392 (34,792) rental apartments. The fair value of Kojamo's investment properties at the end of the review period was EUR 6.3 (5.2) billion. Investment properties include completed apartments as well as development projects and land areas.

Measured at fair value on 31 March 2020, 98.8 per cent of Kojamo's rental apartments were located in the seven largest Finnish growth centres, 87.4 per cent in the Helsinki, Tampere and Turku regions and 73.1 per cent in the Helsinki region.

FINANCIAL DEVELOPMENT JANUARY–MARCH 2020

TOTAL REVENUE

Kojamo's total revenue increased to EUR 95.7 (91.5) million. Total revenue is generated entirely by income from rental operations.

The increase in total revenue was mainly due to the completion of rental apartments in 2019 and the Like-for-Like (LfL) growth of rental income. Like-for-Like growth is defined as the change of rental income for properties owned for two consecutive years in the past 12 months compared to the previous 12-month period.

RESULT AND PROFITABILITY

Net rental income grew to EUR 56.0 (50.8) million, representing 58.6 (55.6) per cent of revenue. The increase in net rental income was mainly due to the completion of rental apartments in 2019, the Like-for-Like (LfL) growth of rental income and maintenance costs being lower than in the comparison period.

Profit before taxes was EUR 51.7 (38.9) million. The profit includes EUR 22.0 (10.4) million in net gain on the valuation of investment properties at fair value and EUR -0.1 (0.0) million in profits and losses from the sale of investment properties. Profit before taxes and excluding the net valuation gain on the fair value assessment of investment properties increased by EUR 1.2 million.

Financial income and expenses were EUR -16.3 (-13.1) million. Financial income and expenses include EUR -1.7 (-1.6) million in unrealised changes in the fair value of derivatives. Financial income and expenses increased by EUR 3.3 million year-on-year due to the valuation losses on investments being higher than in the comparison period at EUR 2.2 (0.0) million.

Funds From Operations (FFO) amounted to EUR 29.4 (26.3) million. The increase in FFO during the review period was attributable to the improved net rental income.

Kojamo has assessed the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Group's result and determined that the pandemic did not have a significant impact during the review period.

In March, Kojamo plc and OP Corporate Bank signed an unsecured loan agreement of EUR 75 million. The 5.5-year loan will be used for the Group's general corporate purposes. At the end of the review period, the loan was still unwithdrawn.

Kojamo owned a total of 35,392 (34,792) rental apartments at the end of the review period. Measured at fair value, 98.8 per cent of the portfolio was located in the seven largest Finnish growth centres. The company aims to divest its apartments outside the seven major growth centres in Finland.

Kojamo shifted from a transaction-based valuation technique to a yield-based valuation technique in the valuation of investment properties from 31 December 2019 onwards. This represents a change in accounting estimates and it was not applied retrospectively. The effect of the change on the fair value of investment properties was approximately EUR 800 million. The yield-based valuation technique makes Kojamo more comparable with its relevant international peer group.

The fair value of Kojamo's investment properties is determined quarterly on the basis of the company's own evaluation. An external expert gives a statement on the valuation of Kojamo's investment properties. The latest issued valuation statement is based on the situation as at 31 March 2020. The criteria for determining fair value are presented in the Notes to the Financial Statements 2019.

At the end of the review period, the plot and real estate development reserve held by the Group totalled about 193,000 floor sq.m. (203,000 floor sq.m.). The fair value of the plot and real estate development reserve (including the Metropolia properties) was EUR 161 (178) million at the end of the review period.

At the end of the period, Kojamo also had 527 (1,655) rental apartments under the VVO brand.

Kojamo responds to the trends of urbanisation, digitalisation and communality in accordance with its strategy, providing its customers with apartments with good locations and services that make daily life easier, increase the attractiveness of housing and improve the sense of community. Our aim is to develop a networked service platform that will enable agile innovation implementation in cooperation with other operators. Kojamo's properties serve as a platform to which the new services can easily be connected. The demand for rental housing remained strong in growth centres during the review period, and the urbanisation trend that supports long-term demand continued. Studios and one-bedroom apartments continued to be in highest demand during the review period.

The number of tenancy agreements signed via the Lumo webstore continued to increase sharply during the review period. By the end of the period, nearly 17,000 tenancy agreements had been

signed on the Lumo webstore. All Lumo rental apartments that become vacant are available for rent on the Lumo webstore, where customers can choose their preferred apartment.

Kojamo also has a long-term share-based incentive plan for the Group's key personnel. The reward is based on reaching the targets set for Kojamo's key business criteria in relation to the Group's strategic goals.

SUSTAINABILITY

Corporate responsibility and sustainable development are one of Kojamo's strategic focus areas. Sustainability is integral to Kojamo's operations and corporate culture. Sustainability is part of our DNA and it plays an important role in the work of everyone at Kojamo. This is reflected on various levels of our operations, including our business operations, working conditions and the customer interface. We emphasise responsibility towards customers, our obligations as a contractor as well as clear communication to our shareholders about the Kojamo's corporate and social responsibility efforts and their progress. We are committed to developing new and modern construction solutions, housing services and ecological innovations related to energy-efficient housing solutions. We operate openly and ethically and also require our partners to operate responsibly.

Towards lower-emission property development

Since 2016, we have implemented all of our new construction projects using our own plot reserves as near-zero energy buildings in accordance with the nZEB principles. At the end of the review period, near zero-energy buildings represent 79% (1,706) of all Kojamo projects completed since 2016. Of the properties under construction at the end of review period, near zero-energy buildings represented 90% (1,586).

Continuous improvement of energy efficiency

Kojamo has joined the Rental Property Action Plan (VAETS II) for the period 2017–2025. Our target under this action plan is to reduce energy consumption by 7.5 per cent during the period in question, using 2015 as the baseline. We focus on managing the energy consumption of the buildings in our property portfolio and use an AI-driven IoT solution by Leanheat Oy to control the temperature of 29,000 apartments owned by Kojamo.

Lumo, a responsible and environmentally friendly lessor

All of Kojamo's properties use Helen's hydropower-certified property electricity. We have also started to use carbon-neutral district heating at many of our properties. In 2019, Fortum's carbonneutral district heating was introduced at 79 properties.

All residents of Lumo homes have the opportunity to use shared vehicles that are self-charging full hybrid cars. We aim to continuously develop recycling and offer comprehensive recycling opportunities to our residents.

We also focus on developing the environmental responsibility of our own operations. All Kojamo offices are WWF Green Office certified. Kojamo became a national WWF Green Office certificate holder when the final Lumo Home Centres that are connected to the environmental system received the certificate in December 2019.

Social responsibility and being a responsible employer

We ensure our future competitiveness through competence development and offer an employee experience that attracts the best talent in the industry. We also work continuously to promote our corporate culture and the well-being of our personnel. We launched the Kojamo Cultural Compass project in March 2020. The project aims to sharpen the objective for our culture and, through employee engagement and participation, strengthen the common day-to-day corporate culture that we use to create an even better employee experience for Kojamo's personnel. In February 2020,

Kojamo was recognised by Corporate Spirit in the "Finland's most inspiring workplaces" survey for the third consecutive year.

Kojamo's sponsorship and grant programme provides financial support for young talents. The programme covers not only individual sports but also team sports. Personal grants are awarded to athletes aged 12–20 to encourage them in their sporting careers. Those living in Lumo and VVO homes are given priority. Grants have been awarded since 2012. In 2019, grants were awarded to 50 young athletes.

Corporate Governance

The anti-grey economy models used by Kojamo exceed legislative requirements in many respects. We continuously monitor the fulfilment of contractor obligations for all companies in our supplier network through the Reliable Partner service on the tilaajavastuu.fi website.

Development of sustainability reporting

We are continuing to focus on transparent sustainability reporting and, in 2020, we will participate in the Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark (GRESB) survey for the first time. We published our sustainability report for 2019 as part of our Annual Report on 20 February 2020. Our report on the year 2019 marked the first time that we have applied the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) framework and the European Public Real Estate Association's Sustainability Best Practices Recommendations (EPRA sBPR, 3rd edition).

NEAR-TERM RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Kojamo estimates that the most significant risks and uncertainties in the current review period are related to the development of the Finnish economy. The near-term risks arise particularly from the COVID-19 pandemic. The risks and their magnitude are affected by the development of the pandemic as well as the scope and duration of the measures introduced to limit the pandemic. Predicting the development of the pandemic and the impact of the restrictions is exceptionally difficult.

Economic development may affect the housing and financial markets in exceptional ways. These factors may have an impact on Kojamo's profit and cash flow as well as the fair value of apartments. The economic downturn may lead to unemployment, which can affect the ability of residents to pay rent and, subsequently, the company's rental income. Kojamo follows the development of rental receivables and credit losses actively.

Urbanisation is expected to continue in the longer term. The supply of rental apartments may, however, increase locally in the main areas in which Kojamo operates, and the changes in supply and demand could have an impact on Kojamo's tenant turnover or the financial occupancy rate and, thereby, rental income. The restrictions implemented in response to the pandemic may, in the short term, also affect people's willingness to relocate and reduce migration.

If prolonged, the pandemic may have an impact on the operations of construction companies, which could result in delays in new projects. The prolongation of the pandemic could also have broader impacts on the housing market and property market, including apartment prices, rents and yield requirements.

The weakening of the financial markets could have a negative effect on the availability of financing or lead to a higher cost of financing.

A more detailed description of Kojamo's strategic risks and uncertainties is provided in the Financial Statements 2019.

CONDENSED NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Basic information about the Group

Kojamo plc is Finland's largest market-based, private housing investment company that offers rental apartments and housing services in Finnish growth centres. Its range of apartments is extensive. On 31 March 2020, Kojamo owned a total of 35,392 rental apartments across Finland.

The Group's parent company, Kojamo plc, is a Finnish company domiciled in Helsinki. Its registered address is Mannerheimintie 168, 00300 Helsinki, Finland.

Trading in Kojamo's shares commenced on the pre-list of Nasdaq Helsinki on 15 June 2018 and on the official list of Nasdaq Helsinki on 19 June 2018. In addition, a bond issued by Kojamo in 2016 is listed on the official list of Nasdaq Helsinki Ltd. Two other bonds issued by the company have been listed on the official list of the Irish Stock Exchange. The Group has chosen Finland as its home state for the disclosure of periodic information pursuant to Chapter 7, Section 3 of the Finnish Securities Market Act.

Kojamo plc's Board of Directors approved this Interim Report for publication at its meeting on 7 May 2020.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis for preparation

These interim financial statements were prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as well as by applying the same accounting policies as in the previous annual financial statements, excluding the exceptions described below. The figures of the interim financial statements have not been audited.

The figures for 2019 are based on Kojamo plc's audited financial statements for 2019. The figures in brackets refer to the corresponding period in 2019, and the comparison period is the corresponding period the year before, unless otherwise stated.

The preparation of interim report in accordance with IFRS requires application of judgement by Kojamo's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities on the balance sheet date and the reported amounts of income and expenses for the period. Management must also make judgements when applying the Group's accounting policies. Actual results may differ from the estimates and assumptions used. The most significant items of these interim report where judgement has been applied by management, as well as the assumptions about the future and other key uncertainty factors in estimates at the end of the reporting period that create a significant risk of change in the carrying amounts of Kojamo's assets and liabilities within the next review period, are the same as those presented in the consolidated financial statements for the 2019 financial year. Of these, the most important are the determination of the fair values of investment properties and financial instruments.

2. REVENUE

Specification of revenue from contracts with customers:

M€ 1–3/2020 1–3/2019 1–12/2019
Rental income 93.6 89.9 367.9
Water fees 1.9 1.3 6.2
Sauna fees 0.1 0.2 0.6
Total 95.6 91.4 374.8

Revenue consists primarily of rental income based on tenancy agreements. In the Group's business, the scope of IFRS 15 includes maintenance and service revenue, which include usebased charges collected from tenants.

3. INVESTMENT PROPERTIES

Change in valuation method

Kojamo shifted from a transaction-based valuation technique to a yield-based valuation technique in the valuation of investment properties from 31 December 2019 onwards. This represents a change in accounting estimates. The change is not applied retrospectively. The effect of the change on the fair value of investment properties was approximately EUR 800 million in the Financial Statements 2019. The yield-based valuation technique makes Kojamo more comparable with its relevant international peer group.

During the review period, EUR -8.6 (-16.7) million was recognised in the fair value reserve from interest rate derivatives classified as cash flow hedges. The interest rate derivatives are used to hedge the loan portfolio's interest cash flows against increases in market interest rates. The interest rate derivatives mature between 2020 and 2035. At the end of the review period, the average maturity of interest rate swaps was 5.5 (6.2) years. Electricity derivatives hedge against increases in electricity prices and mature between 2020 and 2022. Electricity derivatives are not included in hedge accounting. The unrealised gains and losses from the measurement of derivatives are presented on the balance sheet under current and non-current assets or liabilities in the item Derivative instruments.

There were no transfers between the hierarchy levels during the review period. The fair value of floating rate loans is the same as their nominal value, as the margins of the loans correspond to the margins of new loans. The fair values of bonds are based on market price quotations. The fair value of other fixed-rate liabilities is based on discounted cash flows, in which market interest rates are used as input data.

If there is no active market for the financial instrument, judgment is required to determine fair value and impairment. External mark to market valuations may be used for some interest rate

derivatives. Recognition of impairment is considered if the impairment is significant or long-lasting. If the amount of impairment loss decreases during a subsequent financial year and the decrease can be considered to be related to an event occurring after the recognition of impairment, the impairment loss will be reversed.

Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified into three fair value hierarchy levels in accordance with the reliability of the valuation technique:

Level 1:

The fair value is based on quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2:

A quoted market price exists in active markets for the instrument, but the price may be derived from directly or indirectly quoted market data. Fair values are measured using valuation techniques. Their inputs are based on quoted market prices, including e.g. market interest rates, credit margins and yield curves.

Level 3:

There is no active market for the instrument, the fair value cannot be reliably derived and input data used for the determination of fair value is not based on observable market data.

Investments measured at fair value through profit or loss on hierarchy level 3 are investments in unlisted securities and they are mainly measured at acquisition cost, as their fair value cannot be reliably measured in the absence of an active market. With regards to these items, it is evaluated that the acquisition cost is an appropriate estimate of fair value.

10. THE IMPACT OF COVID-19

Kojamo has assessed the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Group's profit, balance sheet and cash flow and determined that the pandemic did not have a significant impact on the items in question during the review period.

11. EVENTS AFTER THE REVIEW PERIOD

In April, Kojamo plc and Danske Bank A/S, Finnish branch signed an unsecured loan agreement of EUR 50 million, with a maturity of two years with a one-year extension option. The loan was withdrawn in April.

In April, Lumo Kodit Oy and European Investment Bank (EIB) signed an unsecured loan agreement of EUR 34 million. The financing is the third part of EUR 204 million long-term financing granted by EIB, which will be used to fund the construction of nearly zero-energy buildings.

Kojamo has assessed the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Group's result, balance sheet and cash flows after the review period on 7 May 2020 and determined that the pandemic did not have a significant impact to these figures. Neither rent receivables nor credit losses haven't increased significantly. Kojamo follows the development of these figures actively.

Kojamo presents Alternative Performance Measures to illustrate the financial development of its business operations and improve comparability between reporting periods. The Alternative Performance Measures, i.e. performance measures that are not based on financial reporting standards, provide significant additional information for the management, investors, analysts and other parties. The Alternative Performance Measures should not be considered substitutes for IFRS performance measures.

Formulas used in the calculation of the key figures

Alternative Performance Measures (APM) based on ESMA guidelines

1) Net rental income =
Total revenue - Maintenance expenses - Repair expenses
Net rental income measures the profitability of the Group's rental business after the deduction of
maintenance and repair costs.
2) Net rental income
margin, %
Net rental income
=
x 100
Total revenue
This figure reflects the ratio between net rental income and total revenue.
3) Profit before taxes Net rental income - Administrative expenses + Other operating income - Other operat
ing expenses +/- Profit/loss on sales of investment properties +/- Profit/loss on sales of
=
trading properties +/- Profit/loss on fair value of investment properties - Depreciation,
amortisation and impairment losses +/- Financial income and expenses +/- Share of re
sult from associated companies
Profit before taxes measures profitability after operative costs and financial expenses.
4) EBITDA Profit for the period + Depreciation, amortisation and impairment losses -/+ Financial
=
income and expenses -/+ Share of result from associated companies + Current tax ex
pense + Change in deferred taxes
EBITDA measures operative profitability before financial expenses, taxes and depreciation.
5) EBITDA
margin, %
EBITDA
=
x 100
Total revenue
EBITDA margin discloses EBITDA in relation to total revenue.
6) Adjusted EBITDA Profit for the period + Depreciation, amortisation and impairment losses -/+ Profit loss
on sales of investment properties -/+ Profit/loss on sales trading properties -/+
=
Profit/loss on sales of other non-current assets -/+ Profit/loss on fair value of invest
ment properties -/+ Financial income and expenses -/+ Share of result from associated
companies + Current tax expense + Change in deferred taxes
Adjusted EBITDA measures the profitability of the Group's underlying rental operations excluding
gains/losses on sale of properties and unrealised value changes of investment properties.
7) Adjusted EBITDA
margin, %
Adjusted EBITDA
=
x 100
Total revenue
Adjusted EBITDA margin discloses adjusted EBITDA in relation to total revenue.

8) Funds From Operations
(FFO)
= Adjusted EBITDA - Adjusted net interest charges - Current tax expenses
FFO measures cash flow before change in net working capital. The calculation of this APM takes
into account financial expenses and current taxes but excludes items not directly connected to
rental operations, such as unrealised value changes.
9) FFO margin, % = FFO
x 100
Total revenue
FFO margin discloses FFO in relation to total revenue.
10) FFO per share = FFO
Weighted average number of shares outstanding during the financial period
FFO per share illustrates FFO for an individual share.
11) FFO excluding non-re
curring costs
= FFO + non-recurring costs
FFO measures cash flow before change in net working capital. The calculation of this APM takes
into account financial expenses and current taxes but excludes items not directly connected to
rental operations, such as unrealised value changes and non-recurring costs.
