3) Entra has a policy of semi-annual dividends. Given the current situation in the property and interest rate markets, the Board's focus is to strengthen the company's balance sheet. Consequently, the Board has decided to not use the authorisation to pay semi-annual dividend for the first half of 2023 nor to propose dividend for the second half of 2023. Entra's dividend policy remains unchanged.
On 22 March 2024, Entra signed an agreement to divest all management properties in Trondheim. From Q1 2024, 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. The transaction is expected to close on 31 May 2024. Refer to page 24 for further information. The financial development in the quarter is in the following section commented for the continuing and the discontinued operations combined.
Rental income was up 1 per cent from 872 million in Q1 2023 to 878 million in Q1 2024. The changes in rental income are explained in the income bridge below.
| Amounts in NOK million | Q1-23- Q1-24 |

|---|---|---|
| Rental income previous period | 872 | |
| Finalised development projects | 42 | |
| Vacated properties for redevelopment | -21 | |
| Divestments | -34 | |
| CPI growth | 36 | |
| Like-for-like growth above CPI | -3 | |
| Other | -15 | |
| Rental income | 878 | |
| Whereof from continuing operations | 776 | |
| Whereof from discontinued operations |
Projects finalised in 2023 and 2024 with most significant impact on the increase in rental income includes Stenersgata 1 Holtermanns veg 1-13 phase 2 and Nedre Vollgate 11. The most significant properties vacated for redevelopment includes Brynsengfaret 6 and Nedre Vollsgate 11 in Oslo. Reduction of income related to divestments relates to the sale of 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 two lease buyout agreements with a positive 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 of 4.3 per cent (36 million) for the quarter. The CPI adjustment was 4.8 per cent (36 million compared to the same quarter last year). The likefor-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 2 577 (2 454) as of 31.03.24. The increase in 12 months rolling rent over the last four quarters is mainly a result of finalised projects and CPI growth with higher income per sqm.

Compared to the same quarter last year, the occupancy rate went down by 60 basis points to 95.3 per cent (96.0 per cent as of 31.03.23), a increase of 10 basis points from 31.12.23. The market rental income assessment of vacant space as of 31.03.24 is estimated to 179 million on an annualised basis.

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. The graph includes the planned divestment of the Trondheim portfolio on 31 May with gross annual revenues of approximately 400 million. 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 108 million in rental income for the period compared to the graph above if these leases are not renewed.
Total operating costs amounted to 78 million (74 million) in the quarter, of which discontinued operations accounted for 8 million. Operating costs for the continuing operations is split as follows:
| Amounts in NOK million | Q1-24 | Q1-23 |
|---|---|---|
| Maintenance | 8 | 4 |
| Tax, leasehold, insurance | 18 | 17 |
| Letting and prop. adm. | 24 | 27 |
| Direct property costs | 21 | 21 |
| Operating costs | 71 | 68 |
As a consequence of the effects explained above, total net operating income came in at 799 million (798 million) in the quarter, of which discontinued operations accounted for 94 million.
Other revenues were 94 million (18 million) in the quarter and other costs were 86 million (12 million).
Entra has agreed to sell certain sections of the ongoing development project Holtermanns veg 1-13 phase 3 upon completion of the project. These sections were in Q1 2024 reclassified from investment properties to contract assets. As a result of the reclassification, other revenues and other cost in the first quarter both increased by 72 million. For the remaining period, until the completion of the development and the property is delivered to the buyer, Entra will recognise the remaining revenue and cost based on the stage of completion of the project.
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 amounted to 50 million (50 million) in the quarter and will only be marginally affected by the divestment of the Trondheim portfolio.
| Amounts in NOK million | Q1-24 | Q1-23 |
|---|---|---|
| Income from property management | -3 | 2 |
| Other income and costs | -11 | 3 |
| Changes in market value | -4 | -11 |
| Tax | 4 | 1 |
| Share of profit from associates and JVs | -14 | -7 |
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.
| Amounts in NOK million | Q1-24 | Q1-23 |
|---|---|---|
| Interest and other finance income | 10 | 10 |
| Interest and other finance expense | -438 | -376 |
| Net realised financials | -428 | -366 |
Total net realised financials have increased from 2023 mainly due to higher average Nibor interest rates on floating rate debt. Net realised financials decreased by 28 million from Q4 2023, mainly as a result of a reduction in interest-bearing debt.
Total net income came in at 314 million (382 million) in the quarter, of which discontinued operations accounted for 92 million. When including only the profit from property management in the results from associates and JVs, net income from property management for the Group was 325 million (391 million). This represents a decrease of 17 per cent from the first quarter of 2023, mainly due to higher financing costs. For calculation of Net income from property management, see the section Alternative performance measures.

Total net value changes amounted to -1 627 million (-451 million) in the quarter, of which discontinued operations accounted for -74 million.
The quarterly valuation of all assets in the property portfolio by two external appraisers, resulted in negative changes in value of investment properties of 1 789 million (421 million), of which the management properties in Trondheim accounted for 74 million. The negative value change for the continuing operations is predominantly due to an adjustment of the appraisers' discount rates of approximately 10 basis points.
Changes in value of financial instruments were 162 million (-30 million) in the quarter, mainly explained by higher long-term interest rates.
Tax payable of 4 million (3 million) in the quarter 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 337 million (21 million).
Total loss before tax was 1 313 million (70 million) in the quarter, mainly due to the negative value changes and increased financing costs more than off-setting the healthy operating performance. Total loss after tax was 979 million (53 million), of which discontinued operations accounted for a profit of 14 million (130 million), which also equals the comprehensive income for the period. EPRA Earnings amounted to 233 million (285 million) in the quarter.
The Group's assets amounted to 70 974 million (81 761 million) as of 31.03.24. Of this, investment properties, including investment properties held for sale, amounted to 66 969 million (78 414 million). In addition to the investment properties held for sale, assets of 62 million directly associated with the properties are classified as held for sale.
Inventory properties of 483 million (475 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.
Other non-current assets increased to 701 million (665 million) as of 31.03.24, mainly due to the reclassification of 72 million of the value of the development project Holtermanns veg 1-13 from investment properties to contract assets. See note 5 for further information.
Other current assets increased to 761 million (294 million) as of 31.03.24, mainly due to a 184 million seller's credit in relation to the divestment of Sørkedalsveien 6 payable in Q2 and a 250 million seller's credit in relation to the divestment of Akersgata 51 and Tordenskiolds gate 6 payable in Q4.
Borrowings were 38 135 million (40 338 million) at the end of the quarter, of which 21 799 million were bank financing, 15 837 million were bonds outstanding and 500 million were commercial papers.
Liabilities directly associated with the assets held for sale constitutes 809 million as of 31.03.24.
Book equity totalled 24 570 million (31 612 million) at 31.03.24. EPRA NRV per share was 158 (207) and EPRA NTA 157 (204).
The statement of cash flow contains both continued and discontinued operations. The statement of cash flows from discontinued operations is presented in Note 5.
Net cash flows from operating activities came in at 435 million (359 million) in the quarter. The increase mainly relates to working capital movements, offsetting lower net income from property management.
The net cash flows from investment activities were 611 million (-70 million) in the quarter. Proceeds from property transactions of 933 million (312 million) in the quarter is related to the
divestment of Cort Adelers gate 30 and Marken 37. The cash effect from investment in and upgrades of investment properties was -362 million (-395 million).
Net cash flows from financing acitivites were -1 001 million (-195 million) in the quarter. During the quarter, Entra issued a commercial paper of 500 million, offset by a net decrease in bond and bank financing of 924 million and 576 million, respectively. The net change in cash and cash equivalents was 44 million (94 million) in the quarter.
As of 31.03.24, net nominal interest-bearing debt after deduction of liquid assets of 216 million (319 million) was 38 247 million (40 414 million).
In the first quarter, Entra has issued a new commercial paper loan of 500 million. Following quarter end, Entra issued two new commercial paper loans with a total of 500 million.
Effective leverage as of 31.03.24 was 54.4 per cent (49.9 percent) and EPRA LTV was 57.8 per cent (52.8. per cent).
The average remaining term for the Group's debt portfolio was 3.6 years at 31.03.24 (4.1 years as of 31.03.23 and 3.8 years as of 31.12.23). The calculation takes into account that available long-term credit facilities can replace short-term debt.
Entra's debt maturity profile with limited short-term debt maturities, combined with liquid assets, receivables under seller's credit ageements maturing in 2024, ample supply of unutilised credit facilities and Entra's strong and long-lasting relationship with its five Nordic partner banks, is expected to make Entra independent of the bond market for more than five years. This will be further improved during 2024 upon receiving the proceeds from signed and planned divestments.
Entra's financing is mainly based on negative pledge of the Group's assets, which enables a broad and flexible financing mix. As of 31.03.24, secured debt amounted to 5.8 per cent of the Group's assets according to the definition in the carve-out clause in the bond agreements. 43 per cent (47 per cent) of the Group's financing came from debt capital markets.

The average nominal interest rate1) of the debt portfolio was 4.27 per cent as at 31.03.24 (3.59 per cent as at 31.03.23 and 4.29 per cent as at 31.12.23). The change in average interest rate from 2023 mainly stems from higher market interest rates. The average effective interest rate of the debt portfolio was 4.43 per cent. The effective interest rate is higher than the nominal interest rate mainly due to bond issuances below par value.
As of 31.03.24, Entra's portfolio of fixed interest rate hedges had a total volume of 22 889 million equivalent to a fixed rate hedge position (22 709 million) of 59.5 per cent (55.8 per cent) and an average term to maturity of 4.0 years (4.6 years).
As of 31.03.24, credit margins for the debt portfolio had an weighted average fixed term of 2.5 years (2.9 years).
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.

Entra's management portfolio, containing both continued and discontinued operations, consists of 87 properties with a total area of approximately 1.4 million square meters. As of 31.03.24, the management portfolio had a market value of 63.8 billion. The occupancy rate was 95.3 per cent (96.0 per cent) for the total management portfolio. The occupancy rate for the management portfolio excluding Trondheim was 95.4 per cent. See page 24 for further illustrative metrics excluding the Trondheim portfolio. The weighted average lease term for the Group's leases was 6.2 years (6.1 years) for the management portfolio and 6.4 years (6.3 years) when the project portfolio is included. For the management portfolio, the public sector represents approximately 57 per cent (57 per cent) of the total rental income. The entire property portfolio consists of 96 properties with a market value of 67 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 4.32 per cent to 5.12 per cent. From the peak valuations in Q1 2022, the portfolio net yield is up 124 basis points, and approximately 150 basis points adjusted for effects of higher than expected CPI growth. 12 months rolling rent per square meter increased from 2 454 to 2 577, mainly driven by CPI growth and projects that are finalised in Central Oslo.
The market rent per square meter has increased by 7 per cent from the first quarter of 2023, from 2 652 to 2 851.

1) See the section "Definitions". The calculation of net yield is based on the appraisers' assumption of ownership costs, which at 31.03.24 is 5.9 per cent of market rent. 2) The geographical segment Trondheim is held for sale as of Q1-24. The sale of the properties is expected to close in Q2-24.
During the first quarter, Entra signed new and renegotiated leases with an annual rent totalling 162 million (52 200 sqm), of which 95 million is attributable to the project portfolio. Lease contracts with an annual rent of 115 million (11 000 square meters) were terminated in the quarter. Net letting came in at 28 million (5 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.

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 through 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 will start picking up though 2024 as a result of the current outlook where consensus seems to believe 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, the key policy rate was increased by 25 basis points to 4.50 per cent, and it is the
consensus and central bank's view that the rate hiking cycle in Norway now is likely to have peaked.
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 is the largest cities of Norway remain at low levels. According to Entra's Consensus Report, office vacancy in Oslo is expected to increase slightly, although from low levels. 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 nine 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.

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.
With the renewed 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.
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 in contrast to what is reported in 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 serendipitous interactions, which will benefit office property owners like Entra.
The demand for offices particularly in Oslo is still strong, and the supply of new office capacity is limited following reduced start of new office projects during the last years. Entra is thus well positioned in a solid Norwegian economy and a 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 future 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. Nevertheless, the increased interest rates and credit margins impact capital intensive industries like the real estate industry, and Entra's cost of debt has increased significantly in recent years but is expected to decline going forward.
The value of Entra's property portfolio has as of Q1 2024 decreased by around 18 per cent since peak valuation in Q1 2022, and the blended portfolio yield has expanded with 124 basis points, and approximately 150 basis points taking into effect the higher-than-expected indexation. Entra's lease contracts were adjusted with 2023 CPI indexation of approximately 4.8 per cent from 1 January 2024. The letting market has seen strong growth in recent years and is expected to remain in positive territory also in the years to come.
Since 2022, Entra has divested 11 assets in Oslo, Bergen and Drammen for a total value of around 5 billion. In addition, Entra will in Q2 2024 divest its portfolio of 13 management properties in Trondheim for 6.45 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. Further, the divestment of the Trondheim portfolio will crystalise Entra's position as a premium office provider with focus on the Greater Oslo area and Bergen. Entra will continue to pursue some level of asset rotation and has several active divestment processes ongoing.
Sustainability has been an integrated part of Entra's business model for at least 15 years. Entra is working actively to reduce the CO2 footprint of its property portfolio and has a firm ambition to become a Net Zero Carbon company by 2030. 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 (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive) and EPBD (Energy Performance of Buildings Directive) regulations.
Moody's assigned Entra a Baa3 credit rating with stable outlook in November, and the divestment of the Trondheim portfolio will strengthen the balance sheet and the debt metrics. Entra's credit quality and strong and long-lasting relationship with its five Nordic partner banks, as evidenced by Entra's extending existing bank facilities of 13 billion and getting 5 billion of new bank credit facilities during the last two years, is expected to contribute to competitive access to funding also going forward. Entra's well-staggered debt maturity profile with very limited near to medium term debt maturities will be further improved when the proceeds from divestments are received during 2024. Combined with an already ample supply of unutilised credit facilities, Entra will be independent of the bond market for more than five years.
Entra will continue to optimise its high-quality management and project portfolio through asset rotations 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 and with modern, flexible and environmentally friendly assets located in attractive clusters near public transportation hubs, a solid tenant base with long lease contracts, an already strong financial position further strengthened by divestments still to be closed, and an attractive project pipeline for future growth, has a proven and resilient business profile that is well positioned for the future.

The statement of cash flows contains both continuing and discontinued operations. See Note 5 for cash flows from discontinued operations.
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.
The Group has one main operational unit, led by the COO. The property portfolio is divided into six different geographic areas in Oslo, Sandvika, Drammen, Stavanger, Bergen and Trondheim, 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 six geographic areas. As the sale of all management properties in Trondheim is expected to close in May 2024, the geographical segment Trondheim will from Q2 2024 no longer be included in the overview below.

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.

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.
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.

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).

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.
