1. Summary of the activities since 1 January 2022

In the first months of 2022, Aedifica has shown that it continues to live up to its ambitions as a leading European healthcare real estate investor. The Group once again posted sound results, while its international expansion continued unabatedly with numerous completions and acquisitions.

EUROPEAN EXPANSION

Aedifica's ambitions were reaffirmed as the Group announced investments and developments across Europe for approx. €300 million (YTD). Furthermore, a total of 9 projects from the investment programme amounting to approx. €46 million were completed during the first quarter.

At the end of March, Aedifica's real estate portfolio has increased to 583 sites with a capacity of more than 33,100 residents and over 10,500 children. The fair value of the real estate portfolio* increased by approx. €117 million (+2%) to €5,014 million (compared to €4,896 million at the beginning of the financial year).

In addition, as of 31 March 2022, the Group has a total investment programme in pre-let development projects and acquisitions in progress of approx. €835 million (see Appendix 3). Considering this investment programme, Aedifica's total portfolio is expected to reach the €5.8 billion mark by the end of 2024.

SOUND RESULTS

Aedifica focuses not only on investments and growth but also on managing its existing real estate assets. The result of this effort is reflected in an excellent rental income of €64.9 million (€53.4 million as at 31 March 2021, an increase of approx. 22%). The EPRA Earnings* are slightly above budget and amount to €40.4 million (€32.2 million as at 31 March 2021, an increase of approx. 26%), i.e. €1.11 per share. Aedifica's total profit amounts to €117.2 million. Aedifica demonstrated its ability to grow the company while maintaining a strong focus on financial performance through an increase in earnings per share and a sound debt-to-assets ratio. Taking into account the volatile macro-economic environment due to high inflation, rising interest rates and the current geopolitical situation, these sound results allow Aedifica's Board of Directors to reaffirm its outlook for the 2022 financial year2 .

SUSTAINABLE GROWTH

Aedifica is paying more attention than ever to sustainability in close cooperation with its operational partners. In order to achieve net zero emissions by 2050, Aedifica has developed a green lease annex (see section 5.3). This common frame of reference will allow the Group and its operators to share data and best practices, thus improving the environmental performance of the portfolio. The success of Aedifica's ambitious CSR strategy is evidenced by the upgrade of the Company's MSCI rating from BBB to A and the recent award for its inaugural Sustainability Bond issued in September 2021. In the 2021 CSR Report (to be published in June 2022), Aedifica will provide a comprehensive update on the Group's progress in implementing its CSR strategy and disclose its new net zero carbon pathway as well as the renewed objectives and actions for the coming years.

FUTURE GROWTH

Since the beginning of the year, Aedifica has once again proven that it can deliver on its international growth ambitions – even in a volatile macroeconomic environment – with a sizeable series of new investments and the completion of several development projects across Europe. The Group intends to continue along this path in the remaining months of 2022 as various new investment opportunities are being analysed. Even without taking into account new investments, the Group's future growth is assured by its extensive investment programme. Through the combination of new investments and existing agreements on the development, acquisition, renovation, expansion and redevelopment of numerous sites, Aedifica can build up a portfolio of high-quality buildings that offer attractive net returns and further strengthen its position as a European market reference in listed healthcare real estate.

3. Management of financial resources

3.1. Financial debts

During the first quarter of the 2022 financial year, Aedifica further strengthened its financial resources. The Group has secured new, long-term financing with due dates between 2027 and 2028. Aedifica contracted bank loans totalling €105 million, of which €65 million is new financing and €40 million is early refinancing.

Taking these elements into account, the maturity dates of Aedifica's financial debts as of 31 March 2022 are as follows:

1 Amounts in £ were converted into € based on the exchange rate of 31 March 2022 (1.18683 £/€).

2 Without regard to short-term treasury notes.

Without regard to short-term financing (short-term treasury notes), the weighted average maturity of the financial debts as of 31 March 2022 is 5.4 years. The available liquidity after deduction of the short-term commercial paper stood at €624 million on 31 March 2022.

As of 31 March 2022, Aedifica's consolidated debt-to-assets ratio amounted to 43.2%.

S&P has assigned Aedifica a BBB investment-grade rating with a stable outlook, reflecting the strength of the Group's balance sheet and business model. The stable outlook reflects the predictable rental income supported by resilient health care assets and overall long leases which should continue to generate stable cash flows over the next few years.

On 31 March 2022, the financial debt is hedged against interest rate risk for 84.7%, i.e. the ratio of the sum of the fixed rate debt and the notional amount of derivatives divided by the total financial debt (31 December 2021: 90.3%). The hedging's weighted average maturity is 6.4 years.

The Group's sustainable financing amounts to 26% of the drawn financial debts.

4. Summary of the consolidated results as of 31 March 2022

4.1. Portfolio as of 31 March 2022

During the first quarter of the current financial year, Aedifica increased its portfolio of investment properties3 by approx. €117 million, from a fair value of €4,896 million to €5,014 million. This value of €5,014 million includes the marketable investment properties4 (€4,846 million) and the development projects (€167 million). The 2% increase in marketable investment properties comes mainly from net acquisitions (see section 2.1 above), completed development projects (see section 2.1 above) and changes in the fair value of marketable investment properties recognised in income (+63.5 million, or +1.7%). The changes in the fair value of marketable investment properties, as assessed by independent valuation experts, are broken down as follows:

  • Belgium: +€6.7 million (+0.2%);
  • Germany: +€22.1 million (+0.6%);
  • Netherlands: +€20.4 million (+0.5%);
  • United Kingdom: +€1.8 million (+0.1%);
  • Finland: +€10.8 million (+0.3%);
  • Sweden: +€1.2 million (+0.0%);
  • Ireland: +€0.5 million (+0.0%).

As of 31 March 2022, Aedifica's portfolio comprised 583 marketable investment properties (including assets classified as held for sale*), with a total capacity for more than 33,100 residents and over 10,500 children and a total surface area of approx. 2,048,000 m2 .

The total portfolio has an overall occupancy rate5 of 100% as of 31 March 2022.

The weighted average unexpired lease term (WAULT) for all buildings in the Company's portfolio is 20 years.

5 Rate calculated according to the EPRA methodology.

3 Including assets classified as held for sale*.

4 Including assets classified as held for sale* and a right of use of €60 million related to plots of land held in 'leasehold' in accordance with IFRS 16.

11 May 2022 – before opening of markets Under embargo until 07:30 CET

4.2. Gross yield by country

The table below presents the portfolio's gross yield by country, compared to the fair value of the marketable investment properties.

In general, the gross yield based on the fair value amounts to 5.5%. In Finland and Sweden, Hoivatilat is developing its construction projects itself. The yield on cost of these projects amounts to more than 6% on average and is higher than the yield on the fair value of properties after completion (as shown in the table below).

° Based on the fair value (re-assessed every three months). For healthcare real estate, the gross yield and the net yield are generally equal ('triple net' contracts) with the operating charges, the maintenance costs and the rents on empty spaces related to the operations generally being supported by the operator in Belgium, the United Kingdom, Ireland and (often) the Netherlands. In Germany, Finland and Sweden (and the Netherlands, in some cases), the net yield is generally lower than the gross yield, with certain charges remaining the responsibility of the owner, such as the repair and maintenance of the roof, structure and facades of the building ('double net' contacts).

The increase in consolidated rental income demonstrates the relevance of Aedifica's investment strategy and can be attributed to the large number of sites that Aedifica has added to its portfolio through the completion of new acquisitions and the delivery of development projects from the investment programme.

After deduction of the rental-related charges (€0.1 million), the net rental income amounts to €64.8 million (+21% compared to 31 March 2021).

The property result amounts to €64.6 million (31 March 2021: €52.6 million). This result, less other direct costs, leads to a property operating result of €61.6 million (31 March 2021: €49.9 million). This implies an operating margin* of 95.2% (31 March 2021: 93.5%).

After deducting overheads of €9.3 million (31 March 2021: €8.0 million) and taking into account other operating income and charges, the operating result before result on the portfolio has increased by 23% to reach €52.6 million (31 March 2021: €42.7 million). This implies an EBIT margin* of 81.1% (31 March 2021: 79.9%).

Taking into account the cash flows generated by hedging instruments, Aedifica's net interest charges amount to €6.9 million (31 March 2021: €6.8 million). The average effective interest rate* including commitment fees is 1.5%, lower than in the previous financial year (1.6%). Taking into account other income and charges of a financial nature, and excluding the net impact of the revaluation of hedging instruments to their fair value (non-cash movements accounted for in accordance with IAS 39 are not included in the EPRA Earnings* as explained below), the financial result excl. changes in fair value* represents a net charge of €8.2 million (31 March 2021: €8.0 million).

Corporate taxes are composed of current taxes, deferred taxes and exit tax. In conformity with the special tax system of Belgian RRECs, the taxes included the EPRA Earnings* (31 March 2022: €3.7 million; 31 March 2021: €2.4 million) consist primarily of tax on the result of consolidated subsidiaries, tax on profits generated outside of Belgium and Belgian tax on Aedifica's non-deductible expenditures. In the Dutch subsidiaries, for the sake of caution it was decided to opt for a common law tax burden in the result, notwithstanding the fact that the subsidiary still has a claim to the application of the fiscally transparent regime of a 'Fiscale Beleggingsinstelling ('Tax Investment Institution'). Deferred taxes are described below.

The share in the result of associates and joint ventures includes the result of the participation in Immobe NV, which has been consolidated since 31 March 2019 using the equity method.

EPRA Earnings* (see Appendix 4.4.1) reached €40.4 million (31 March 2021: €32.2 million), or €1.11 per share (31 March 2021: €0.97 per share), based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding and taking into account the higher number of shares resulting from the 2021 capital increases. This result (absolute and per share) is slighthly above budget.

11 May 2022 – before opening of markets Under embargo until 07:30 CET

The income statement also includes elements with no monetary impact (i.e., non-cash) that vary in line with external market parameters. These consist amongst others of changes in the fair value of investment properties (accounted for in accordance with IAS 40), changes in the fair value of financial assets and liabilities (accounted for in accordance with IAS 39), other results on portfolio, exit tax and deferred taxes (arising from IAS 40):

  • Over the first quarter, the combined changes in the fair value of marketable investment properties6 and development projects represent an increase of €51.1 million for the period (31 March 2021: €11.5 million).
  • In order to limit the interest rate risk stemming from the financing of its investments, Aedifica has put in place long-term hedges which allow for the conversion of variable-rate debt to fixedrate debt, or to capped-rate debt. Moreover, the financial instruments also reflect put options granted to certain minority shareholders which are the subject of appraisal at fair value. Changes in the fair value of financial assets and liabilities taken into the income statement as of 31 March 2022 represent an income of €35.5 million (31 March 2021: an income of €4.9 million) following the increase of the long-term interest rates.
  • Capital gains on disposals (31 March 2022: €0.4 million; 31 March 2021: -€0.0 million) are also taken into account here.
  • Tax on profit or losses on disposals represents an income of €1.8 million as of 31 March 2022 (compared to €0.0 million as of 31 March 2021).
  • Deferred taxes in respect of EPRA adjustments (charge of €8.6 million as of 31 March 2022, compared to a charge of €5.3 million on 31 March 2021) include two elements. Deferred taxes (charge of €8.6 million as of 31 March 2022, compared to a charge of 5.3 million on 31 March 2021) arose from the recognition at fair value of buildings located abroad, in conformity with IAS 40. The exit tax (charge of €0.0 million as of 31 March 2022, compared to a charge of €0.1 million as of 31 March 2021) corresponds to the variation between the estimated exit tax at the moment of acquisition of companies and the estimated exit tax at their anticipated merger dates.

Taking into account the non-monetary elements described above, the profit (owners of the parent) amounts to €117.2 million (31 March 2021: €44.7 million). The basic earnings per share (as defined by IAS 33) is €3.23 (31 March 2021: €1.35).

6 That change corresponds to the sum of the positive and negative variations of the fair value of the buildings as of 31 December 2021 or the time of entry of new buildings in the portfolio, and the fair value estimated by the valuation experts as of 31 March 2022. It also includes ancillary acquisition costs and changes in the right of use of plots of land.

The table below details the evolution of the net asset value per share.

Excluding the non-monetary effects (i.e., non-cash) of the changes in fair value of hedging instruments7 , the net asset value per share based on the fair value of investment properties amounted to €79.56 as of 31 March 2022 (31 December 2021: €77.35 per share).

5. Corporate Social Responsibility

5.1. Aedifica improves its MSCI rating

Aedifica's ambitious sustainability strategy is paying off, as evidenced by the scores of various ESG assessments. In February 2022, MSCI – measuring the resilience of companies to long-term ESG risks – upgraded the Group's rating from BBB to A. Visit Aedifica's website to find out more about our sustainability scores.

5.2. Aedifica wins the 'Sustainability bond of the year – corporate' award

Aedifica's €500 million Sustainability Bond, which was issued in September 2021 and drew strong investor interest, has won the award for 'Sustainability bond of the year – corporate' at the 2022 Environmental Finance Bond Awards. In their report, the panel praised our inaugural Sustainability Bond as a unique opportunity to invest in a product that has a clear environmental and social impact on a sector that is more important than ever before.

7 The effect of the changes in fair value of hedging instruments of +€0.47 per share as of 31 March 2022 is the impact in equity of the fair value of hedging instruments, which is positive for €17.1 million, mainly booked in the assets on the balance sheet.

5.3. Green lease agreements

Aedifica commits to attaining net zero emissions for its entire portfolio by 2050 to meet the objectives of the Paris Agreement and thus contribute to addressing the climate crisis. In order to achieve carbon neutrality, Aedifica is implementing a net zero carbon pathway8 . Since a large proportion of companywide emissions relates to so-called 'scope 3 downstream emissions' (mainly due to energy consumed by operators and residents), Aedifica works closely with its operators to meet this objective.

In that respect, Aedifica has developed a common frame of reference for cooperation between the Group and its operators, which includes reciprocal obligations (e.g. sharing energy data, exchanging best practices/experience, refraining from doing construction works that negatively affect the environmental performance of buildings) on the one hand, and recommendations that provide guidance on how to further improve the environmental performance of buildings on the other.

This common frame of reference has taken the form of a green lease annex that will become an integral part of the leases in each of the countries in which Aedifica operates.

1 Amounts in £ and SEK were converted into € based on the exchange rate of 31 March 2022 (1.18683 £/€ and 0.09625 SEK/€).

2 Although still under construction, the sites already generate limited rental incomes, in particular for the plots of land that have already been acquired. Their values are therefore no longer mentioned in the table above. This explains why the estimated investment values differ from those mentioned earlier.

3 Part of the first framework agreement with Specht Gruppe. 4 Part of the second framework agreement with Specht Gruppe.

5 These projects are being developed within the joint venture with the Korian group. Aedifica and Korian will each finance 50% of the total budget. This table only considers the part of the budget that will be financed by Aedifica.

6 This project is being developed within the joint venture with Dunavast-Sonneborgh, in which Aedifica holds a 75% stake.

7 This project has already been completed after 31 March 2022 (see section 2.2 above).

Approx. €46.5 million need to be added to the total investment budget given the announcement of several development projects in the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and Finland after 31 March 2022 (see section 2.2 above). Of the total investment budget, €7 million has already been carried out since 31 March 2022 (see section 2.2 above).

4. Calculation details of the Alternative Performance Measures (APMs)

Aedifica has used Alternative Performance Measures in accordance with ESMA (European Securities and Market Authority) guidelines published on 5 October 2015 in its financial communication for many years. Some of these APMs are recommended by the European Public Real Estate Association (EPRA) and others have been defined by the industry or by Aedifica in order to provide readers with a better understanding of the Company's results and performance. The APMs used in this interim financial report are identified with an asterisk (*). Performance measures defined by IFRS standards or by Law are not considered to be APMs, neither are those that are not based on the consolidated income statement or the balance sheet. The definition of APMs, as applied to Aedifica's financial statements, may differ from those used in the financial statements of other companies.
