Results

Rental income

Rental income was up 1 per cent from 580 million in Q2 2019 to 587 million in Q2 2020 and 1 per cent from 1,165 million to 1,174 million for the first six months of 2020. Despite significant contribution from finalised projects, the top line growth is currently relatively flat as several of Entra's large assets has been vacated and prepared for redevelopment over the last 12 months. The underlying changes in rental income can be explained by the factors in the below income bridge.

Net positive contribution from development projects was 1 million in the quarter compared to the same quarter last year. During the last 12 months Entra has finalised the redevelopment of Tullinkvartalet and the three new-build projects of Powerhouse Brattørkaia, Brattørkaia 12 and Holtermanns veg 1-13 in Trondheim. However, during the year the properties Tordenskjolds gate 12, Schweigaards gate 15 and parts of Stenersgata 1 have been vacated and are awaiting redevelopment.

The acquisition of Møllendalsveien 6-8 in Bergen in December 2019 contributed with 7 million per quarter compared to last year, whereas divestment of five properties in Oslo during 2019 has reduced the rental income by 8 million per quarter.

Other effects in the quarter includes a reduction in turnover based rents due to Covid-19. The first six months of 2019 includes extraordinary lease buy-out of 12 million.

Compared to last year, rental income has been positively affected by an underlying like-for-like growth of 0.7 per cent (4 million) for the quarter and 1.5 per cent (15 million) for the first six months. The annual indexation of the lease contracts constituted 1.6 per cent. 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.

Average 12 months rolling rent per square meter was 2,149 (2,013) as of 30.06.20. The increase mainly stems from properties vacated during the year awaiting redevelopment that have been reclassified to the project portfolio in 2020.

Compared to the same quarter last year, the occupancy rate went up by 160 basis points to 97.6 per cent. The market rental income of vacant space as of 30.06.20 was approximately 58 million on an annualised basis.

QUARTERLY NET LETTING

Gross letting, including re-negotiated contracts, was 95 million in the quarter of which 3 million is attributable to letting in the project portfolio. Lease contracts with an annual lease of 38 million were terminated in the quarter. Net letting defined as new lease contracts plus lease-up on renegotiated contracts

less terminated contracts came in at 14 million (29 million) in the quarter. 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 a later impact on the results.

The graph above shows the estimated development of contracted rental income based on all reported events, including income effect from divestments and acquisitions, development projects, net letting based on new and terminated contracts in the management portfolio, and other effects such as estimated CPI adjustments. It does not reflect any letting targets on the vacant areas in the portfolio or on contracts that will expire, but 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 on the balance sheet date based on all reported events.

The 16 million increase in letting and property administration costs from the second quarter of 2019 is mainly related to an increase in expected credit losses on trade receivables due to Covid-19, including increased uncertainty on the collectability of older receivables.

Net operating income

As a consequence of the effects explained above, net operating income came in at 522 million (530 million) in the quarter and 1,066 million (1,072 million) for the first six months of 2020.

Other revenue and other costs

Other revenues were 20 million (71 million) in the quarter and 38 million (140 million) for the first six months of 2020. Other costs were 14 million (67 million) in the quarter and 23 million (128 million) for the first six months of 2020.

Other revenue and other costs in the quarter and the first six months of 2020 mainly consists of income and costs related to inventory properties (properties in the Bryn portfolio which is expected to be zoned for residential development and subsequently sold to a third party) and from extra services provided to tenants.

In the first six months of 2019, 95 million of other revenue and 87 million of other costs were related to the development of Tollbugata 1A in Oslo, which was forward-sold and delivered to the buyer in the fourth quarter of 2019.

Administrative costs

Administrative costs amounted to 39 million (42 million) in the quarter and 89 million (90 million) for the first six months of 2020. The decrease in the second quarter of 2020 is primarily related to lower activity due to Covid-19.

Net realised financials have increased in the first half of 2020 compared to 2019 mainly due to higher interest bearing debt and higher average Nibor interest rates on floating rate debt in the first six months of 2020.

Net income and net income from property management

Net income came in at 349 million (484 million) in the quarter and 744 million (880 million) for the first six months of 2020. Net income from property management was 350 million (352 million) in the quarter and 706 million (727 million) in the first half of 2020. This represents a decrease of 1 per cent from the second quarter in 2019 and 3 per cent from the first six months of 2019. For calculation of Net income from property management, see the section Alternative performance measures.

Value changes

Due to the very high uncertainty stemming from the Covid-19 pandemic and the sudden decline in oil prices in the latter part of March, Entra's external appraisers performed the valuation as of 31.03.20 based on the market conditions without estimating the potential effects the pandemic and oil price decline. As a consequence of the material valuation uncertainty at the end of the first quarter, Entra chose to base the fair value as of 31.03.20 on the valuations obtained as of 31.12.19.

The recent months have given the external appraisers more clarity about the impact of the slowdown in the economic activity, and the effects of Covid-19 and the oil price development are reflected in the values obtained as of 30.06.20. As such, the changes in value of investment properties for the second quarter equals the value change for the first six months of 2020.

The valuation of the property portfolio resulted in a net positive value change of 619 million (472 million) in the quarter. About 219 million of the total value changes is attributable to increased market rent, primarily in the central parts of Oslo, and about 98 million is a net result of new contracts partly offset by effects from terminated contracts. In the project portfolio, about 33 million relates to ongoing projects, mainly explained by new lease contracts signed in the period and reduced risk as each project is moving towards completion. The net effect of yield changes are negligible in the quarter, and the remaining stems from positive value changes of 181 million in relation to that Entra made a settlement regarding a tenant's purchase option of one of the assets and positive effects of 87 million related to other property related changes.

Net changes in value of financial instruments was -28 million (-19 million) in the quarter and -365 million (-41 million) for the first six months of 2020. The negative value change in 2020 is mainly due to a sharp reduction in market interest rates, which with a weighted average interest rate duration of 2.5 years on the debt portfolio, implies a net liability increase on interest rate derivatives of 365 million.

Tax

Tax payable of 10 million (6 million) year to date is related to the partly owned entity Papirbredden in Drammen. The change in deferred tax was -204 million (-171 million) in the quarter and -206 million (-318 million) in the first half of 2020.

The Group, except for certain partly owned companies with marginal tax effect, is currently not in a tax payable position due to tax loss carry forward. At year-end 2019, the tax loss carry forward for the Group's wholly-owned subsidiaries was 68 million (321 million).

Profit

Profit before tax was 940 million (937 million) in the quarter and 997 million (1,795 million) for the first six months of 2020. Profit after tax was 730 million (763 million) in the quarter and 782 million (1,471 million) year to date 2020, which also equals the comprehensive income for the period.

EPRA Earnings

EPRA Earnings amounted to 251 million (254 million) in the second quarter and 537 million (520 million) year to date 2020. Refer to pages 27-28 for further details.

Balance sheet

The Group's assets amounted to 53,109 million (49,452 million) as at 30.06.20. Of this, investment properties amounted to 50,736 million (46,660 million).

Inventory properties of 416 million (412 million) at the end of the quarter relates to the properties in the Bryn portfolio expected to be zoned for residential development and subsequently sold to a third party.

Other receivables and other current assets was 390 million (724 million) at the end of the quarter. The 2019 amount included contract assets related to the forward-sold asset Tollbugata 1A, which was delivered to the buyer in the fourth quarter of 2019.

Other non-current liabilities was 499 million (687 million) at the end of the quarter. The decrease is mainly related to the derecognition of a provision for the contract obligation assumed from the University of Oslo for the remaining lease period at St. Olavs plass 5, following the acquisition of the property in the fourth quarter of 2019.

Book equity totalled 24,842 million (23,252 million). Equity per share was 156 (145) based on the EPRA NAV standard, 143 (135) based on EPRA NNNAV and 161 (150) based on EPRA NRV. Refer to pages 29 and 30 for further details.

Cash flow statement

Net cash flow from operating activities came in at 191 million (192 million) in the quarter and 676 million (622 million) for the first six months of 2020. The increase in the first half of 2020 mainly relates to working capital movements.

The net cash flow from investments was -630 million (-429 million) in the quarter and -1,062 million (-420 million) for the first six months of 2020, mainly driven by the cash effect from investment in and upgrades of investment properties of -612 million (-360 million) in the quarter and -1,024 million (-695 million) in the first half of the year.

Net cash flow from financing acitivites was 437 million (107 million) in the quarter and 329 million (-219 million) year to date 2020. During the quarter, Entra had an increase in bond financing of 1,207 million and a decrease in bank financing of 310 million. In addition, the Group has paid dividend of 437 million (420 million) to the shareholders of Entra ASA.

The net change in cash and cash equivalents was -1 million (-130 million) in the quarter and -58 million (-17 million) for the first six months of 2020.

Financing

During the second quarter, Entra's gross interest-bearing nominal debt increased by 897 million to 20,692 million. The change in interest bearing debt comprised a net increase in bond financing of 1,207 million and a decrease in bank financing of 310 million.

In the quarter, Entra issued a new seven-year green bond of 1,500 million. The new green bond is earmarked funding of a pool of properties/projects with high environmental standards and a certification from BREEAM with a minimum certification of "excellent". Entra has also repurchased 293 million of short dated outstanding bonds. Further, commercial paper loans has been refinanced with 1,200 million.

In the second quarter, Entra extended a 1,500 million revolving credit facility with one year, bringing the maturity for this credit facility to 29.06.24.

As of 30.06.20, net nominal interest bearing debt after deduction of liquid assets of 259 million (213 million) was 20,433 million (19,228 million).

The average remaining term for the Group's debt portfolio was 4.8 years at 30.06.20 (5.4 years). The calculation takes into account that available long-term credit facilities can replace short-term debt.

Entra's financing is mainly based on negative pledge of the Group's assets, which enables a broad and flexible financing mix. Entra's financing structure includes bank loans, bonds and commercial papers. At the end of the period, 72 per cent (75 per cent) of the Group's financing came from debt capital markets.

The property portfolio

Entra's management portfolio consists of 75 properties with a total area of approximately 1.1 million square meters. As of 30.06.20, the management portfolio had a market value of 44.7 billion. The occupancy rate was 97.6 per cent (96.0 per cent). The weighted average lease term for the Group's leases was 6.8 years (6.4) for the management portfolio and 6.8 years (7.0) when the project portfolio is included. For the management portfolio, the public sector represents approximately 58 per cent of the total rental income. The entire property portfolio consists of 90 properties with a market value of 50.6 billion.

Entra's properties are valued by two external appraisers (Akershus Eiendom/JLL and Newsec) on a quarterly basis. 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 return requirements 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 is valued based on the same principles, but with deduction for remaining investments and perceived risk as of valuation date. The land and development portfolio is valued based on actually zoned land.

Year-on-year, the portfolio net yield is reduced from 4.9 to 4.8 per cent. 12 months rolling rent per square meter increased from 2,013 to 2,149 mainly driven by properties that are vacated during 2019 and awaiting redevelopment have been reclassified to the project portfolio in 2020.

The market rent has increased by 5 per cent, from 2,169 to 2,275 per square meter.

Other information

Organisation and HSE

At 30.06.20 the Group had 181 (170) employees.

In Q2 2020, Entra had one injury with long term absence from work in the ongoing projects. Entra has a continuous HSE focus both in on-going projects and in the operations and works continually to avoid injuries. The Group had an LTIF rate (number of accidents with lost time per million hours worked in last 12 months) on ongoing projects of 4.6 at the end of the second quarter 2020 vs. 2.2 at the end of the fourth quarter 2019.

Risk management

Entra assesses risk on an ongoing basis, primarily through semiannually comprehensive reviews of the Group's risk maps, which includes assessments of all risk factors in collaboration with all levels of the organization. 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 28-33 in the 2019 annual report.

The main risk factors described in the annual report does not include an evaluation of a pandemic. Depending on the length of crisis and the risk of a second wave of the pandemic and the strength and effect of the government interventions, the Covid-19 or similar situations may have adverse effects on Entra's business. Entra has a strong tenant base with a seven-year WAULT with a solid backbone of high-quality tenants, including public tenants comprising 58 per cent of revenue. Less than 10 per cent of Entra's rental income stems from industries that are most affected by the current situation. Entra continuously work on risk reducing measures in the portfolio, including rent levels, lease lengths, counter party risk, occupancy ratio, and the overall quality of the portfolio. Entra further maintains a diversified financing structure with a balanced maturity profile and financing mix in order to ensure stable and predictable access to capital.

The main risk factors described in the annual report include development in value of property. The Covid-19 situation may however affect the occupancy, market rent expectations and yields, among the main factors when performing valuation of properties. Consequently, the valuation uncertainty is higher at 30.06.2020 than at 31.12.2019. Entra monitors and mitigates

the risk quarterly through active dialogue with its two external appraisers (Akershus Eiendom/JLL and Newsec).

Outlook

Well into the Covid-19 crisis, it is still difficult to assess the overall impact on the global and Norwegian economy and the longer term implications for the commercial real estate sector. The recent months have, however, brought somewhat more clarity about the slowdown in economic activity and the cascading impact of supply-and-demand shocks propagating through the system.

The Norwegian government acted at the outset of the crisis and implemented actions to safeguard the population and to ensure the survival of businesses through extensive support packages, including a targeted cash support initiative to cover fixed costs for affected businesses. With solid infrastructure and a strong public funding, including the Government Pension Fund Global, Norway has the fundamentals in place for a recovery post-crisis. Most businesses have gradually re-opened after the lockdown in March, and the virus spread is currently under control in Norway. The situation is however being carefully monitored in case of a second wave of the pandemic.

Entra has taken the necessary measures to protect the health and safety of our community, our tenants and other users of our buildings, as well as our employees. Our contingency plans, procedures, routines and staff are in place, and we have continued to deliver our services and property management without interruption throughout the crisis. We have found individual solutions that give tenants that struggle room to return to normal operation after this demanding period. In the first instance, we have helped tenants that are affected by changing payment schemes from upfront quarterly to monthly invoices or giving monthly postponements on rent. If the Covid-19 crisis should worsen, we will facilitate further, targeted support to customers particularly affected.

Entra's tenant base is strong with almost seven year WAULT and a solid backbone of public tenants comprising 58 per cent of revenues, as well as limited exposure to the industries most affected by the Covid-19 situation.

Further, the oil and gas prices have rebounded somewhat after the decline during the spring, and we now see price levels that justify continued activity for the Norwegian oil and gas industry. Regardless, Entra's exposure to oil and gas is limited with only around two per cent of total revenues through a fully consolidated 50/50 joint venture.

Entra's financial position is strong with a well staggered debt maturity profile, a diversified financing mix, cash and unutilized credit facilities of 7.6 billion, 2.4 times all debt falling due next 12 months. We have strong relationships and continuous dialogues with our five banks, and we assess that the bank market is open and supportive to our funding needs. During the second quarter, the debt capital markets gradually became more attractive with increased liquidity and a sharp contraction of credit spreads. Ultimo June, Entra capitalised on this favourable development by issuing a new seven year 1.5 billion green bond. Entra has also ample headroom to financial covenants, which are Loan-to-value of 75 per cent (40.6 per cent as of Q2) and Interest coverage ratio of 1.4 (3.3 as of Q2).

Uncertainty will prevail also in the months to come. Going forward, the office market might experience changes in workplace strategies and office layouts to accommodate a more mobile and digital way of working. Entra manages modern, flexible and environmentally friendly assets located in attractive clusters near public transportation hubs. Combined with a solid tenant base with long lease contracts, a strong financial position, and an extensive project pipeline for future growth, Entra has a proven and resilient business profile that is well positioned for the future.

NOTE 6 – LEGAL DISPUTES

With reference to note 38 to the annual financial statements for 2019, the Norwegian Ministry of Local Government and Modernisation has had an option to buy the property Munchs gate 4/Keysers gate 13, which is let to the Norwegian Ministry of Justice and Public Security. Entra has been of the opinion that the purchase option was voided in 2014. The Ministry of Local Government and Modernisation had a conflicting view and applied for a ruling by the Oslo District Court, which ruled in favour of the Ministry of Local Government and Modernisation in September 2019. Entra appealed the ruling.

In June 2020, the parties entered into a settlement where it was agreed that the option is lapsed. Entra further agreed to pay a compensation to the Norwegian Ministry of Local Government and Modernisation and reset the rent for the property to the current market rent from October 2020.

ALTERNATIVE PERFORMANCE MEASURES

Entra's financial information is prepared in accordance with the international financial reporting standards (IFRS). In addition, the company reports alternative performance measures (APMs) that are regularly reviewed by management to enhance the understanding of Entra's performance as a supplement, but not as a substitute, to the financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. Financial APMs are intended to enhance comparability of the results and cash flows from period to period, and it is Entra's experience that these are frequently used by analysts, investors and other parties. The financial APMs reported by Entra are the APMs that, in management's view, provide the most relevant supplemental information of a real estate company's financial position and performance. These measures are adjusted IFRS measures defined, calculated and used in a consistent and transparent manner over the years. Operational measures such as, but not limited to, net letting, vacancy and WAULT are not defined as financial APMs according to ESMA's guidelines.

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 is adjusted for as the business of this company is development of properties for sale and is not considered relevant for measurement of the underlying operating performance of the property portfolio under management.

B. NET ASSET VALUE

Net Asset Value (NAV) is a key performance measure widely used in the real estate industry. In 2003, EPRA introduced its Best Practices Recommendations (BPR) guidelines for calculating NAV, with two NAV metrics: EPRA NAV and EPRA NNNAV. Since the introduction of EPRA NAV and EPRA NNNAV, European real estate companies have evolved into actively managed entities, including non-property operating activities, which has resulted in more active ownership, higher asset turnover, and balance sheet financing has shifted from traditional bank lending into capital markets. In the BPR guidelines released in October 2019, EPRA introduced three new Net Asset Valuation metrics: EPRA Net Reinstatement Value (NRV), EPRA Net Tangible Assets (NTA) and EPRA Net Disposal Value (NDV). Entra presents EPRA NAV, EPRA NNNAV and EPRA NRV.

EPRA NAV AND EPRA NNNAV

The objective with EPRA NAV is to demonstrate the fair value of net assets given a long-term investment horizon. EPRA NAV is calculated as net asset value adjusted to include market value of all properties in the portfolio, and to exclude certain items not expected to crystallise in a long-term investment property business model such as e.g. financial derivatives and deferred tax on the market value of investment properties.

The objective with EPRA NNNAV is to report the fair value of net assets in the Group on the basis that these are immediately realised. EPRA NNNAV is EPRA NAV adjusted to reflect the fair value of debt and derivatives and in order to include deferred tax on value changes.

1) The market value of interest bearing debt was in the report for Q4 2019 reported as 19,910 million, resulting in a reported EPRA NNNAV of 25,901 million (142 per share). The calculation of EPRA NNNAV for Q4 2019 was updated from the 2019 annual report.

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 selling 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 the gross value in Entra's valuation certificates. Consequently, no adjustment is done for real estate transfer taxes in the calculation of NRV.

For the calculation of EPRA NAV, adjustment is made for the difference between deferred tax as per the IFRS balance sheet and the balance sheet as per the underlying tax filings.

C. EPRA NET INTIAL YIELD

EPRA Net initial yield measures the annualised rental income based on the cash rents passing at the balance sheet date, less nonrecoverable property operating expenses, divided by the market value of the property, increased with (estimated) purchasers' costs.

EPRA "topped-up" net initial yield 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).
