Results

On 31 May 2024, Entra divested all management properties in Trondheim. The Trondheim portfolio is classified as a discontinued operation, and Entra presents the result of the discontinued operations separately as a single amount in the statement of comprehensive income. Refer to page 25 for further information on the divestment and page 26 for the combined statement of comprehensive income for the continuing and the discontinued operations. The financial development in the second quarter and first half of 2024 is in the following section commented for the continuing and the discontinued operations combined.

Rental income

Rental income was down one million from 854 million in Q2 2023 to 853 million in Q2 2024, and up from 1,726 to 1,730 for the first six months of 2024. The changes in rental income are explained in the income bridge below.

Projects finalised in 2023 and 2024 with most significant impact on the increase in rental income includes Stenersgata 1, Schweigaards gate 15 (Tollgaarden), Holtermanns veg 1-13 phase 2 and Nedre Vollgate 11. The most significant properties vacated for redevelopment includes Brynsengfaret 6 in Oslo and Nonnesetergaten 4 in Bergen. Reduction of income related to divestments relates to the sale of the Trondheim portfolio, Sørkedalsveien 6, Akersgata 51, Cort Adelers gate 30, Grønland 32, Tordenskiolds gate 6 and Marken 37. The items referred to under the line Other is related to lease buyout agreements with a positive one-off effect of 12 million in Q2

2024, and year to date impacted by a one-off effect of 16 million in Q1 2023.

Compared to last year, rental income has been positively affected by an underlying like-for-like growth for the year of 3.5 per cent (51 million). The CPI adjustment was 4.77 per cent (67 million compared to the same period last year). The like-for-like growth for the year is lower than the CPI adjustment due to reduced occupancy in the period. Near all of Entra's lease contracts are 100 per cent linked to positive changes in CPI. The annual adjustment is mostly made on a November to November basis, effective 1 January the following year.

Average 12 months rolling rent per square meter was 2 637 (2 465) as of 30.06.24. The increase in 12 months rolling rent over the last four quarters is mainly a result of finalised projects, the divestment of the Trondheim portfolio and CPI growth with higher income per sqm.

Compared to the same quarter last year, the occupancy rate went down by 80 basis points to 94.8 per cent (95.6 per cent as of 30.06.23), and a decrease of 50 basis points from 31.03.24. The decrease from 31.03.24 stems from vacancy in the redevelopment project Schweigaards gate 15, which was finalised in the quarter, and increased vacancy in the management portfolio, partly offset by divestment of the Trondheim portfolio. The market rental income assessment of vacant space as of 30.06.24 is estimated to 181 million on an annualised basis.

Rental income development

The graph above shows the estimated development of contracted rental income based on all reported events, including income effect from acquisitions and divestments, development projects, net letting based on new and terminated contracts in the management portfolio, and other effects such as estimated CPI adjustments. CPI adjustment with effect for 2025 is estimated to 3.5 per cent. The graph does not reflect any letting targets on the vacant areas in the portfolio or on contracts that will expire, where the outcome of any renegotiation process is not known, i.e., not yet reported in "Net letting". The graph therefore does not constitute a forecast, but rather aims to demonstrate the rental income trend in the existing contract portfolio based on all reported events. There is upside in the above graph with regards to letting of vacant space, with market rental income potential estimated to 181 million, and potential rent uplift on a relatively large share of tenant renegotiations in the period, but also a possible downside of up to 87 million in rental income for the period compared to the graph above if these leases are not renewed.

Operating costs

Total operating costs amounted to 68 million (67 million) in the quarter, and 146 million (142 million) in the first six months of 2024, of which discontinued operations accounted for 3 million in the quarter and 11 million in the first six months of 2024. Operating costs for the continuing operations is split as follows:

Net operating income

As a consequence of the effects explained above, total net operating income came in at 785 million (787 million) in the quarter, of which discontinued operations accounted for 64 million. For the first six months of 2024, total net operating income came in at 1 584 million (1 584 million), of which discontinued operations accounted for 158 million (151 million).

Other revenues and other costs

Other revenues were 58 million (27 million) in the quarter and 152 million (45 million) for the first six months of 2024, while other costs were 45 million (19 million) in the quarter and 131 million (31 million) for the first six months of 2024.

Entra has agreed to sell certain sections of the ongoing development project Holtermanns veg 1-13 in Trondheim upon completion of the project. In the second quarter, other revenues and other costs related to the development constitute 27 million and 26 million respectively, and for the first six months, 99 million and 97 million respectively. Refer to note 5 for further information on the transaction.

In addition, other revenue and other costs mainly consist of additional services provided to tenants and income and costs related to inventory properties, i.e., properties expected to be zoned for residential development at Bryn in Oslo, and subsequently sold to a third party at a predetermined price.

Administrative costs

Administrative costs amounted to 48 million (48 million) in the quarter and 98 million (97 million) for the first six months of 2024. Administrative costs will only be marginally affected by the divestment of the Trondheim portfolio.

Share of profit from associates and JVs is negative in the quarter, mainly due to negative results in OSU due to limited completion and delivery of residential apartments. See the section Partly owned companies for a detailed breakdown of the results from associates and JVs.

Net realised financials

Net realised financials amounted to -401 million (-394 million) in the quarter, and -829 million (-761 million) in the first six months of 2024, of which discontinued operations accounted for -1 million in the quarter and -3 million in the first six months of 2024 as the discontinued operations not were separately financed.

Compared to the corresponding quarters in 2023, total net realised financials increased in the second quarter and first half of 2024 mainly due to higher average Nibor interest rates on floating rate debt. Net realised financials decreased by 27 million from Q1 2024 as a result of a reduction in interestbearing debt and reduced average interest rates.

Net income and net income from property management

Total net income came in at 342 million (324 million) in the quarter and 656 million (706 million) for the first six months of 2024.

When including only the profit from property management in the results from associates and JVs, net income from property management for the Group was 348 million (350 million) in the quarter and 673 million (741 million) in the first half of 2024. This represents a decrease of 1 per cent from the second quarter of 2023 and 9 per cent from the first half of 2023 respectively, mainly due to higher financing costs. For calculation of Net income from property management, see the section Alternative performance measures.

Value changes

Total net value changes amounted to 2 million (-2 063 million) in the quarter, and -1 625 million (-2 515 million) for the first six months of 2024, which includes a gain of 397 million from sale of discontinued operations.

Changes in value of investment properties were -414 million (-2 466 million) in the quarter, predominantly due to the appraisers reducing the inflation expectations and increasing the discount rates of approximately 10 basis points on certain assets in the Oslo portfolio. The changes in value of the investment properties were offset by a 397 million gain on the divestment of Trondheim, mainly due to the deferred tax liabilities of the Trondheim portfolio exceeding the tax deduction in the net proceeds.

Changes in value of financial instruments were 19 million (403 million) in the quarter, mainly explained by higher longterm interest rates.

Tax

Tax payable of 3 million (3 million) in the quarter and 7 million (7 million) in the first half of 2024. The tax payable is related to the partly owned entity Papirbredden in Drammen. Entra with wholly owned subsidiaries is not in a tax payable position. The change in deferred tax was 4 million (412 million) in the quarter and 341 million (433 million) in the first half of 2024, of which discontinued operations accounted for -16 million in the quarter and -21 million for the first six months of 2024.

The derecognition of the deferred tax liability associated with the Trondheim portolio does not affect the tax expense as all effects of the divestment of the Trondheim portfolio is presented as part of changes in value of investment properties.

Profit/loss

Total profit before tax was 344 million (-1 739 million) in the quarter and -969 million (-1 809 million) for the first six months of 2024, of which discontinued operations accounted for a profit of 460 million (-34 million) in the quarter and 478 million (133 million) million for the first six months. The profit for the

first six months is heavyly impacted by negative value changes more than off-setting the healthy operating performance. Total profit after tax was 345 million (-1 331 million) in the quarter and -634 million (-1 383 million) for the last six months, of which discontinued operations accounted for a profit of 444 million (-27 million) in the quarter and 458 million (103 million) for the

first six months, which also equals the comprehensive income for the period. EPRA Earnings amounted to 247 million (252 million) in the quarter and 480 million (537 million) for the first six months of 2024.

Balance sheet

The Group's assets amounted to 64 040 million (78 200 million) as of 30.06.24. Of this, investment properties amounted to 60 086 million (73 913 million).

Other non-current assets decreased to 767 million (909 million) as of 30.06.24, mainly due to the 250 million seller's credit in relation to the divestment of Akersgata 51 and Tordenskiolds gate 6 reclassified to current as it's payable in Q4 2024, partly offset by a 98 million contract asset related to the development project Holtermanns veg 1-13 phase 3.

Inventory properties of 486 million (478 million) at the end of the quarter relates to the properties expected to be zoned for residential development at Bryn in Oslo, and subsequently sold to a third party at a predetermined price.

Net cash flows from operating activities came in at 208 million (309 million) in the quarter and 643 million (668 million) for the first six months of 2024. The decrease in the quarter mainly relates to working capital movements.

The net cash flows from investment activities were 6 207 million (1 446 million) in the quarter and 6 818 million (1 376 million) for the first six months of 2024. Proceeds from property transactions of 6 369 million (2 059 million) in the quarter is related to the divestment of the Trondheim portfolio and the sale of Hotel Savoy.

Financing

During the second quarter, Entra's nominal interest-bearing debt decreased by 6 239 million to 32 224 million, mainly due to the divestment of the Trondheim portfolio. Further, Entra closed the divestment of Universitetsgata 11 (Hotel Savoy) on the last banking day of the quarter, and the proceeds from the transaction will be used to repay interest-bearing debt in early Q3 2024.

In the second quarter, Entra issued new commercial paper loans of 1 600 million at attractive terms, representing a net increase of commercial paper financing of 550 million. Bank financing decreased by 6 789 million.

As of 30.06.24, net nominal interest-bearing debt after deduction of liquid assets of 356 million (242 million) was 31 868 million (39 149 million). Effective leverage as of 30.06.24 was 50.4 per cent (50.5 percent) and EPRA LTV was 53.9 per cent (53.4 per cent).

The average remaining term for the Group's debt portfolio was 3.8 years at 30.06.24 (4.3 years as of 30.06.23 and 3.6 years as of 31.03.24). The calculation takes into account that available long-term credit facilities can replace short-term debt.

Entra has a debt maturity profile with limited short-term debt maturities, combined with an ample supply of of unutilised credit facilities of 12 520 million of 30.06.24 (7 245 million as of 30.06.23) and a receivable under a seller's credit ageement of 250 million maturing in November 2024.

Entra's financing is mainly based on negative pledge of the Group's assets, which enables a broad and flexible financing mix. As of 30.06.24, secured debt amounted to 4.8 per cent of the Group's assets according to the definition in the carve-out clause in the bond agreements. 53 per cent (45 per cent) of the Group's financing came from debt capital markets.

Interest rates and maturity structure

The average nominal interest rate1) of the debt portfolio was 3.96 per cent as at 30.06.24 (3.96 per cent as at 30.06.23 and 4.27 per cent as at 31.03.24). The average effective interest rate of the debt portfolio was 4.15 per cent (4.43 per cent as at 31.03.24), which is higher than the nominal interest rate mainly due to bond issuances below par value. The decrease in average interest rates from Q1 2024 mainly stems from a large reduction in interest-bearing debt and consequently a change of financing mix to more attractive priced debt instruments.

As of 30.06.24, Entra's portfolio of fixed interest rate hedges had a total volume of 22 789 million (22 239 million), increasing the fixed rate hedge position to 70.7 per cent (56.5 per cent), and had an average term to maturity of 3.8 years (4.5 years).

As of 30.06.24, credit margins for the debt portfolio had an weighted average fixed term of 2.7 years (2.9 years).

The ICR was 1.78 for the last 12 months and 1.91 for the quarter isolated. The repayment of interest-bearing debt following the divestment of the Trondheim portfolio did not have full effect on the ICR as the transaction closed on 31 May. The net debt to L12M EBITDA ratio was 11.9. See page 30 for the calculation of both metrics.

The Group manages interest rate risk through floating-to-fixed interest rate swaps and fixed rate bonds. The table below shows the maturity profile and contribution from these fixed rate instruments, as well as the maturity profile for credit margins on debt.

The property portfolio

Entra's management portfolio consists of 73 properties with a total area of approximately 1.2 million square meters. As of 30.06.24, the management portfolio had a market value of 57.8 billion. The occupancy rate was 94.8 per cent (95.6 per cent) for the total management portfolio. The weighted average lease term for the Group's leases was 6.3 years (6.2 years) for the management portfolio and 6.6 years (6.4 years) when the project portfolio is included. For the management portfolio, the public sector represents approximately 52 per cent (57 per cent) of the total rental income. The entire property portfolio consists of 82 properties with a market value of 60.2 billion.

All of Entra's properties have in the quarter been valued by two external appraisers: Newsec and Cushman & Wakefield Realkapital. The market value of the portfolio in Entra's balance sheet is based on the average of the appraisers' valuation. Valuation of the management portfolio is performed on a property-by-property basis, using individual DCF models and taking into account the property's current characteristics combined with the external appraiser's estimated required rate of return and expectations on future market development.

The market value is defined as the external appraiser's estimated transaction value of the individual properties on valuation date. The project portfolio and development sites are valued based on the same principles, but with deduction for remaining investments and perceived risk as of valuation date. Unzoned land is valued based on the appraisers' assumptions on the market value of the land using the best estimate on the zoning and development process.

Year-on-year, the portfolio net yield has increased from 4.51 per cent to 4.99 per cent. From the peak valuations in Q1 2022, the portfolio net yield is up 111 basis points, and approximately 135 basis points adjusted for effects of higher than expected CPI growth, excluding the Trondheim portfolio the increase in net yield from Q1 2022 is 120 basis points. 12 months rolling rent per square meter increased from 2 465 to 2 637, mainly driven by CPI growth, projects that are finalised in Central Oslo and divestment of the Trondheim portfolio.

The market rent per square meter has increased by 14 per cent from the second quarter of 2023, from 2 634 to 2 998, mainly driven by the divestment of the Trondheim portfolio.

Letting activity

During the second quarter, Entra signed new and renegotiated leases with an annual rent totaling 176 million (60 800 sqm), of which 32 million is attributable to the project portfolio. Lease contracts with an annual rent of 59 million (21 000 square meters) were terminated in the quarter. Net letting came in at 12 million (-1 million) in the quarter.

Net letting is calculated as the annualised rent of new lease contracts plus lease-up on renegotiated contracts less terminated contracts. The timing difference between net letting in the management portfolio in the quarter and its effect on the financial results is normally 6-12 months, while new contracts signed in the project portfolio tend to have an even later impact on the results. Reference is made to the project development section for further information regarding project completion.

Market development

The market volatility caused by high inflation and increasing interest rates has reduced the activity in the property transaction market over the last two years. Prime yield in Oslo has expanded from around 3.3 percent to its current level of around 4.7 per cent. It is expected to remain at this level throughout 2024 before slightly moving downwards if interest rates come down, according to Entra's Consensus Report.

Total transaction volume ended up around 56 billion in 2023, which is almost half of the level seen in 2022 and less than one third of the transaction volume in 2021. There are currently positive signals that the transaction market is opening, and that the activity is picking up as it seems to be consensus on the view that interest rates and yields now have reached peak levels.

The newbuild volume in Oslo has been limited over the last couple of years, which is expected to continue in 2024. The significant increase in construction costs creates a temporary imbalance in return calculations. New projects have become expensive relative to existing stock, causing newbuild projects to continue to be postponed.

Year-on-year growth in the November CPI, used to adjust most of Entra's leases in the following year, came in at 6.5 per cent in 2022 and 4.8 per cent in 2023. In December 2023, the key

policy rate was increased by 25 basis points to 4.50 per cent, and, and the Central Bank has signalled a first rate cut in Q1 2025.

The activity level in the Oslo letting market continues to be solid, and there has been a broad and robust growth in market rents over the last years. The work-from-home trend seems to have been reversed in Norway, and the office activity is in total less than 10 per cent lower than pre-pandemic levels according to a study from Akershus Eiendom/JLL. And as working from home primarily occurs on Fridays and Mondays, demand for office space is only marginally impacted as tenants need to take peak days at the office into account.

Office vacancy in the largest cities of Norway remain at low levels. According to Entra's Consensus Report, office vacancy in Oslo is expected to remain at low levels between six and seven per cent in the years to come. Expectations for further employment growth combined with low vacancy and low newbuild volumes give room for continued market rental growth, although at a slower pace than seen over the last years.

In Bergen, the overall office vacancy is currently around eight per cent and around six per cent in the city centre. The activity level in the letting market is high, and there is limited supply and solid demand for modern premises in the city centre.

Risk management

Entra assesses risk on an ongoing basis, primarily through semi-annually comprehensive reviews of the Group's risk maps, which includes assessments of all risk factors in collaboration with all levels of the organisation. Each risk factor is described and presented with the possible negative outcome given an increased probability of a situation to occur. Entra's main risk factors consist of both financial and non-financial risk. A thorough description and analysis is included on pages 30-43 in the 2023 annual report.

Outlook

With the current geopolitical uncertainty, it is still difficult to make predictions regarding the global economy. The Norwegian economy has performed better than expected, including growth and employment. The strong fiscal position of Norway, with an all-time high sovereign wealth fund has over time proved to smooth business cycles and stabilise the performance of the Norwegian economy. Several factors point towards a pick-up in economic activity. The Central Bank of Norway has increased projections for employment growth both in 2024 and 2025, while registered unemployment remains low with 2.0-2.3 per cent in 2024-2027.

Norwegian market data and Entra's experience suggest only marginal impact on demand for office space from the workfrom-home trend and cost saving measures. This contrasts what is reported from several other countries. Norwegian employers are seeking attractive, central locations and reshaping offices to become more inviting social spaces that encourage face-to-face collaboration, creativity and interactions, which will benefit office property owners like Entra.

The demand for offices particularly in Oslo remains strong, and the supply of new office capacity is limited following reduced start of new office projects during the last years. Norwegian market specialists expect continued market rental growth also in the years to come, reflecting continued employment growth, low vacancies and limited newbuild volumes. Entra is thus well positioned in a solid Norwegian economy and property market with low office vacancy rates. And, as proven during the pandemic, Entra's attractive and high-quality portfolio with solid tenants on long leases provide a stable and solid fundament for the company's revenues and cash flows.

The Central Bank of Norway was one of the first central banks to raise policy rates and also to signal that they now have reached peak levels in this business cycle. The Norwegian policy rate was kept on hold at 4.5 per cent in June, and the Central Bank has signalled a first rate cut in Q1 2025. Entra's cost of debt has increased significantly in recent years due to increased interest rates and credit margins but is expected to decline going forward.

The value of Entra's like-for-like property portfolio has as of Q2 2024 decreased by around 19 per cent since peak valuation in Q1 2022, and the like-for-like net portfolio yield has expanded with 120 basis points, and approximately 146 basis points taking into effect the higher-than-expected CPI indexation. Entra's lease contracts were adjusted with 2023 CPI indexation of approximately 4.8 per cent from 1 January 2024.

Since 2022, Entra has divested 25 assets in Trondheim, Oslo, Bergen and Drammen for a total value of around 12 billion. The divestments are done in line with the most recent book values at the time of the transactions. This proves that Entra's assets are attractive for several types of buyers and substantiates the market values as calculated by two external appraisers every quarter. The divestment of the Trondheim portfolio and Hotel Savoy in Q2 has strengthened the balance sheet, improved debt metrics significantly and has crystallised Entra's position as a premium office provider with focus on the Greater Oslo area and Bergen.

The real estate debt capital markets have opened up during 2024, with funding available at significantly lower credit margins. In Q2 2024, Moody's affirmed Entra's Baa3 credit rating with stable outlook. Entra's credit quality has strengthened since Moody's review, and Entra intends to be an attractive issuer in the bond markets going forward. The recent improvement in real estate debt capital markets and Entra's strong and long-lasting relationship with its five Nordic partner banks, is expected to contribute to competitive access to funding also going forward. Entra has a well-staggered debt maturity profile with very limited near to medium term debt maturities, combined with ample supply of unutilised bank credit facilities.

Sustainability has been an integrated part of Entra's business model for over 15 years. Entra is working actively to reduce the CO2 footprint of its property portfolio and has a firm ambition to become Net Zero Carbon. The company is currently working to set the pathway towards becoming Net Zero Carbon in accordance with the Science Based Targets initiative framework. A significant part of Entra's modern and energy efficient management portfolio is currently, or is in the process of being, BREEAM certified, and Entra is well positioned for the upcoming CSRD and EPBD regulations.

Entra will continue to optimise its high-quality management and project portfolio through asset rotation and disciplined capital allocation. Entra will focus on its recognised role as an urban developer and leverage its competitive advantages and ESG leadership.

Uncertainty will likely prevail also in the time to come. However, Entra, operating in a strong Norwegian economy with modern, flexible and environmentally friendly assets located in attractive clusters near public transportation hubs, with a solid tenant base on long lease contracts, a strong financial position, and an attractive project pipeline for future growth, has a proven and resilient business profile that is well positioned for the future.

NOTE 1 – ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

The results for the period have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The accounting principles that have been used in the preparation of the interim financial statements are in conformity with the principles used in preparation of the annual financial statements for 2023. For the divestment of the management properties in Trondheim, Entra has applied the regulation in IFRS 5 regarding measurement and classification of asset and liabilities held for sale, except for investment properties held for sale which shall be measured in accordance with IAS 40. As an entire geographical area of operations is divested, the properties are further presented as discontinued operations in accordance with IFRS 5. See note 5 for further information on the sale of the Trondheim portfolio.

The financial reporting covers Entra ASA, subsidiaries, associated companies and jointly controlled entities. The interim financial statements have not been audited.

NOTE 2 – SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Group has one main operational unit, led by the COO. The property portfolio is divided into five different geographic areas: Oslo, Sandvika, Drammen, Stavanger and Bergen, with management teams monitoring and following up on each area. The geographic units are supported by a Market and Property Development division and a Project Development division. In addition, Entra has group and support functions within accounting, finance, investment, legal, procurement, ICT, communication and HR.

The geographic areas do not have their own profit responsibility. The geographical areas are instead monitored on economical and noneconomical key figures ("key performance indicators"). These key figures are analysed and reported by geographic area to the chief operating decision maker, which is the board and CEO, for the purpose of resource allocation and assessment of segment performance. Hence, the Group report the segment information based upon these five geographic areas. As the sale of all management properties in Trondheim closed in May 2024, the geographical segment Trondheim is from Q2 2024 no longer included in the overview below.

NOTE 5 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On 31 May 2024, Entra sold all its management properties in Trondheim to E C Dahls Eiendom AS, a wholly owned subsidiary of Reitan Eiendom AS. The Trondheim portfolio consisted of 13 office properties totalling 187 474 sqm for gross asset value of 6.45 billion, which was 1 per cent below book values as of Q4 2023, adjusted for land lease obligations recognised in the balance sheet.

As part of the agreement, Entra agreed to sell the ongoing development project Holtermanns veg 1-13 phase 3 after completion. The project totals 15 500 sqm and is expected to be finalised in Q4 2025. The sections of the development project will be sold in steps. The majority of the shares in the company owning the sections let to NRK will be sold one year after the finalisation of the development project and will until the closing of the sale continue to be classified as an investment property. The sections that currently is not pre-let will be sold upon completion of the project and was from the signing of the sales agreement in Q1 2024 accounted for as a construction contract, and the revenue from the development of these sections is recognised over time.

See note 6 on the following page for a combined statement of comprehensive income for the continuing and the discontinued operations.

NOTE 6 – COMBINED STATEMENT OF COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

The discontinued operations were not separately financed, and the associated interest costs cannot be separated from the interest costs of the continuing operations. The proceeds from the divestment of the Trondheim portfolio on 31 May 2024 were used to repay bank debt, reducing the interest-bearing debt and interest costs of the Group.

The details for the calculation of the performance measures presented above are shown on the following pages.

A. EPRA Earnings

EPRA Earnings is a measure of the operational performance of the property portfolio. EPRA Earnings is calculated based on the income statement, adjusted for non-controlling interests, value changes on investment properties, changes in the market value of financial instruments and the associated tax effects. In addition, earnings from the jointly controlled entity OSU are adjusted for as the business of this company is development of residential properties for sale and is not considered relevant for measurement of the underlying operating performance of the property portfolio under management.

B. EPRA Net Asset Value metrics

EPRA Net Reinstatement Value (NRV)

The objective of the EPRA NRV measure is to highlight the value of net assets on a long-term basis and assumes that no divestment of assets takes place. Assets and liabilities that are not expected to crystallise in normal circumstances such as the fair value movements on financial derivatives and deferred taxes on property valuation surpluses are therefore excluded. Real estate transfer taxes are generally not levied on property transactions in Norway, and such taxes are accordingly not included in Entra's valuation certificates. Consequently, no adjustment is done for real estate transfer taxes in Entra's calculation of EPRA NRV.

EPRA Net Tangible Assets (NTA)

The EPRA NTA is focused on reflecting a company's tangible assets and assumes that entities buy and sell assets, thereby crystallising certain levels of unavoidable deferred tax liability. Entra has adopted the second option in the EPRA BPR guidelines to adjust for deferred tax, estimating the real tax liability based how the company has completed property transactions in recent years.

1) The Group's estimated real deferred tax liability related to temporary differences of properties has been calculated based on the assumption that 50 per cent of the property portfolio is realised over 50 years in transactions structured as sale of properties in corporate wrappers with an average tax discount of 6.5 per cent, and by using a discount rate of 5.0 per cent. Further, the real tax liability related to the gains/losses account is estimated by assuming an amortisation of 20 per cent annually and a discount rate of 5.0 per cent.

EPRA Net Disposal Value (NDV)

The EPRA NDV measure illustrates a scenario where deferred tax, financial instruments, and certain other adjustments are calculated as to the full extent of their liability. This enables readers of financial reports to understand the full extent of liabilities and resulting shareholder value under an orderly sale of business and/or if liabilities are not held until maturity. The measure should not be viewed as a "liquidation NAV" for Entra, as fair values may not represent liquidation values, and as an immediate realisation of Entra's assets may be structured as sale of property-owning companies, resulting in the deferred tax liabilities only partially crystallising.

C. EPRA Net Initial Yield

EPRA Net Initial Yield (NIY) measures the annualised rental income based on the cash rents passing at the balance sheet date, less non-recoverable property operating expenses, divided by the market value of the property, increased with (estimated) purchasers' costs.

EPRA "topped-up" NIY incorporates an adjustment to the EPRA NIY in respect of the expiration of rent-free periods (or other unexpired lease incentives such as discounted rent periods and step rents).

F. EPRA LTV

Loan-to-Value (LTV) is an expression of the gearing of a company. The main overarching concepts in EPRA LTV are: (1) any capital which is not equity (i.e. which value accrues to the shareholders of the company) is considered as debt irrespective of its IFRS classification, (2) assets are included at fair value, net debt at nominal value, and (3) the EPRA LTV is calculated based on proportional consolidation (i.e. include the Group's share in the net debt and net assets of joint ventures and material associates). Entra has included its share of net debt and net assets in all joint ventures. In the periods disclosed below, Entra has no material associated companies.
