Both the weighted average number of outstanding shares and the number of shares amounted to 36,988,833 as at 30 September 2023 and as at 30 September 2024. At neither date did the Company hold any of its own shares.

The gross return is calculated in table '2.2 Net result per share on a consolidated basis' by dividing the net result per share by the initial issue price in 1996 (i.e., €5.9495) on the one hand and the market value on the closing date on the other hand. In table '2.3 Components of the net result', the gross yield is calculated by dividing the adjusted EPRA earnings per share by the initial issue price in 1996 (i.e., €5.9495), on the one hand, and the market capitalisation on the closing date, on the other. The share price was €14.36 as at 30 September 2024 and €11.88 as at 30 September 2023. There are no instruments that have a potentially dilutive effect on the net result per share.

Notes to the global result statement

Dutch operator, which operated 2 small-scale projects from the Company's portfolio. Meanwhile, a new lease agreement was concluded for both projects with two other operators including a small-scale player and a foundation.

In addition, the Company's growth also contributes to the increase in the Company's general expenses, which translates into, among other things, an increase in UCI tax and real estate expert costs. Furthermore, part of this increase can be attributed to the costs related to the recruitment process of the new CEO.

Remuneration and personnel-related costs remained virtually unchanged. The indexation as of 1 January 2024 is largely offset by the decrease in average workforce from 26.8 FTEs as of 30 September 2023 to 25.6 FTEs as of 30 September

2024.

Other operating income and expenses increased from €-1,963,758 as at 30 September 2023 to €297,821 as at 30 September 2024.

As at 30 September 2024, other operating income consists mainly of project management fees of €393,058, largely related to the recovery of pre-financing of ongoing Dutch projects. We also note a compensation received here of €300,000 following a settlement reached with a project developer. Both matters contributed to the Company's cash result.

Furthermore, this item also includes the projects' profit and loss margin of €-577,684. This is a noncash element corrected for the calculation of the adjusted EPRA earnings.

Operating result

The Company's operating result increased by 103.28% compared to 30 September 2023, while the operating result before result on portfolio for the same period increased by 11,67%.

Rental income as at 30 September 2024 increased by 6.06% compared to the same period last year. The increase in rental income is mainly explained by (i) the investment properties purchased and completed in 2023 and the first three quarters of 2024 (€2.2 million) and (ii) the indexation of already existing rental agreements (unchanged portfolio) which was fully passed on and averaged 1.68% as at 30 September 2024 (€0.8 million).

Rental income from investment properties represents 74% of total rental income as at 30 September 2024, while canons the Company receives from its finance leases amount to 26% of total rental income. With respect to the EBITDA, investment properties represent 79% and finance leases 21%.

As at 30 September 2024, The Company has transferred rental arrears to doubtful debtors for an immaterial amount of €114,339 (see below).

As at the date of this report, 99% of the total rent invoiced for the first three quarters of the 2024 financial year was effectively collected, including indexations charged in full.

The Company's general expenses increased by €630,456 compared to 30 September 2023 and include the full impairment of the rental arrears amounting to €114,339 which were transferred to the item doubtful debtors (see above). This impairment resulted from the bankruptcy of a

Variations in the fair value of investment

properties remained stable during the first three quarters and experienced only a limited decrease of €-2,129,732. This decrease mainly materialised during the first quarter. In the second quarter, an increase of €1,022,867 was realised, while the valuation remained unchanged overall in the third quarter. Also here, these are unrealised variations that are corrected in the adjusted EPRA earnings.

Financial result

Interest costs increased mainly due to the (i) increased market interest rates compared to the first three quarters of 2023 and (ii) the maturity of some credits with favourable fixed interest rates during the 2023 financial year and the first three quarters of 2024. This therefore reflected in an increase in the weighted average interest rate over the period which amounted to 3.25% as at 30 September 2024 compared to 2.79% as at 30 September 2023.

In order to minimise the impact of rising market interest rates, the Company uses interest rate swaps. As at 30 September 2024, 84.51% of its outstanding debts were therefore hedged.

The financial result as at 30 September 2024 was affected for an amount of €4,395,527 due to the inclusion of the fair value of the authorised financial instruments. As at 30 September 2024, the total impact to date is €-562,741, compared to €4,002,391 as at 31 December 2023.

The variation in fair value of financial assets and liabilities is a non-cash element and is therefore not taken into account for the calculation of the distributable result, i.e., the adjusted EPRA earnings.

Taxes

The amount of taxes as at 30 September 2024 includes estimated and prepaid corporation taxes as well as deferred taxes (receivable) related to the Irish real estate projects.

Adjusted EPRA earnings

The adjusted EPRA earnings on a consolidated basis amounted to €30,201,591 as at 30 September 2024 compared to €28,888,833 as at 30 September 2023. This represents an increase of 4.54%. As the number of shares remained unchanged, adjusted EPRA earnings per share also increased by 4.54%, from €0.7810 as at 30 September 2023 to €0.8165 as at 30 September 2024.

Notes to the consolidated balance sheet

Investment Properties

The Company's real estate portfolio increased by €15,044,250 in the first three quarters of 2024. The variation is explained by (i) the further completion of development projects as well as improvements to already existing investment properties (€15.9 million) and (ii) the decrease in fair value of the total portfolio (€-0.9 million). In the course of the first three quarters of 2024, 4 projects have been completed with a total conventional value of €43.2 million.

The real estate experts confirm the fair value of the real estate portfolio at a total amount of €1,008.2 million (excluding €1.3 million in rights in rem). The fair value is equal to the investment value (or the value deed-in-hand, being the value in which all acquisition costs were included) from which the transaction costs were deducted for an amount of 2.5% for the real estate in Belgium, 10.9% for the real estate in The Netherlands and 9.96% for the real estate in Ireland. For real estate in Spain, these are determined by the region where the property is located.

Other tangible fixed assets

As at 30 September 2024, this item contains €4,542,890 of 'tangible fixed assets for own use', which are almost unchanged from 31 December 2023 and largely relate to the head office in Schoten.

Finance lease receivables

The item 'finance lease receivables' includes all final building rights fees that are due for repayment at the end of the contract for the 76 projects in the initial portfolio and during the term of the contract for the projects 'Hof ter Moere' in Moerbeke (BE), 'Hof Driane' in Herenthout (BE) and 'Assistentiewoningen De Stille Meers' in Middelkerke (BE).

Unlike the projects in the initial portfolio, for the aforementioned reason, the ground rent for the projects in Moerbeke, Herenthout and Middelkerke consists not only of a revenue component, but also of a repayment of the investment value, as a result of which the amount of the receivable will gradually decrease over the term of the leasehold agreement.

Trade receivables regarding the projects included in the item 'Finance lease receivables' The difference between the nominal value of

the building lease payments (included under the item 'finance lease receivables') and the fair value, which at the time of making available is calculated by discounting future cash flows, is included under the item 'trade receivables' and is depreciated on an annual basis.

The fair value of the finance leases amounted to €233,928,000 as at 30 September 2024. An independent party, namely Cushman & Wakefield, is used to calculate this fair value in order to obtain a market-based valuation of this portfolio. The fair value is calculated by discounting the future cash flows, taking into account historical indexations for the cash flows. As discount rate they exercise OLO interest rates prevailing on the closing date, depending on the remaining maturity of the underlying contract, increased by a margin. As at 30 September 2024, the weighted average OLO interest rate amounted to 2.86% and the weighted average risk margin was 1.04%. This results in an average value of €111,820 per assisted living apartment, which can be considered conservative given that future indexations are not taken into account.

The decrease in the fair value of the leases compared to 31 December 2023, when it amounted to €242,103,000, is due to the increase in the OLO interest rates used applicable at closing date.

Debts and liabilities

As a result of the lower investment rhythm during this financial year, where the main focus was on the further completion of the development projects, the Company's financial liabilities increased only slightly.

As at 30 September 2024, the Company has an MTN programme at Belfius (arranger) amounting to €300 million with dealers Belfius and KBC. The Company has set up the necessary backup lines for this purpose. As at 30 September 2024, the amount drawn amounted to €63.0 million in commercial paper and €21.0 million in bonds.

(1) The weighted average interest rate refers to interest rates after conversion of variable interest rates to fixed interest rates through swaps.

As at 30 September 2024, the Company has hedged 84.51% of its debts, either by means of an interest rate swap or by means of a fixed interest rate. The weighted average remaining maturity of the interest rate swaps amounted to 7.38 years.

The consolidated debt ratio, calculated in accordance with Article 13, §1, 2° of the RREC Decree, was 48.15% as at 30 September 2024. The available margin as at 30 September 2024 for further investments and completion of the development projects already acquired before reaching a debt ratio of 60% (imposed by the covenants) amounts to €358.3 million. The Company stresses that its strategy is to keep the debt ratio below 50%. Before reaching this percentage, it still has a capacity of €44.7 million.

The other non-current financial liabilities relate to the inclusion of the fair value of the financial instruments entered. Financial instruments with a positive fair value are included in the item financial fixed assets.

The other non-current liabilities amount to €2,217,990 and have remained virtually unchanged compared to 31 December 2023. They concern the debts relating to the rights in rem for the projects 'La Résidence du Lac' in Genval (BE) and 'Villa Wulperhorst' in Zeist (NL), which are included in the balance sheet in accordance with IFRS 16.

Trade payables and other non-current liabilities

decreased from €9,271,604 as at 31 December 2023 to €5,467,407 as at 30 September 2024. This is mainly due to the fact that the number of invoices still to be received relating to projects has decreased significantly given that most projects were completed or are nearly completed.

The other current liabilities showed a decrease compared to 31 December 2023 to an amount of €1,318,903 and relate to short-term liabilities with respect to development projects.

3. Outlook

The debt ratio is calculated in accordance with Article 13, paragraph 1, bullet 2 of the RREC-RD (Royal Decree regarding Regulated Real Estate Companies) and amounts to 48.15% as at 30 September 2024. Given the fact that Care Property Invest does not exceed the debt ratio of 50%, it is not required to prepare a financial plan in accordance with Article 24 of the RREC RD.

3.1 Assumptions

On the basis of the balance sheet and the global result statement for the 2023 financial year and the first three quarters of 2024, a forecast has been made for the following financial years, in accordance with the Company's accounting policy and in a manner comparable to the historical financial information.

The following hypotheses are used as points of view:

Assumptions regarding factors that can be influenced by the members of the Company's administrative, management and supervisory bodies directly:

  • Increase in the Company's operating expenses and the extent to which service providers pass on inflation to the Company;
  • For the time being, new projects are financed using own resources from operating activities and additional new credit lines, or the proceeds from issuing commercial paper;
  • The financial costs are in line with the increase in financing during the first three quarters of 2024. They also take into account the increased interest rates due to changed market conditions.
  • Additional financing costs for acquisitions in the last quarter of 2024 were also taken into account.

Assumptions regarding factors that cannot be

influenced by the members of the Company's administrative, management and supervisory bodies directly:

  • Rental income was increased by annual indexation and the impact of new investments. For the rental income for which the indexation took place during the first three quarters of 2024, the effective indexation rates were taken into account. Market forecasts were taken into account for the rental income indexed in the further course of 2024 (on the anniversary of the contract);
  • Further fluctuations in the fair value of both the investment properties and the financial instruments have not been included as they are difficult to predict and, moreover, have no impact on the result to be distributed. However, the increased volatility of interest rates may have an impact on the fair value of financial instruments;
  • The Company expects no additional significant impact from any doubtful debtors;
  • Due to the triple net nature(1) of the agreement, no maintenance costs were taken into account for the investment properties. In spite of the fact that the finance lease agreements also concern triple net agreements, a limited provision was created for these agreements.
  • Fluctuations in interest rates and the Company's ability to issue or roll over commercial paper.

3.2 Conclusion on debt ratio outlook

Based on the aforementioned assumptions, the Company still has sufficient margin to make additional investments before the maximum debt ratio of 65% is exceeded on a consolidated basis. The consolidated debt ratio as calculated in accordance with Article 13 of the RREC-RD amounts to 48.15% as at 30 September 2024.

The Company expects a limited decrease of the debt ratio in the last quarter of the 2024 financial year due to the mitigation of the seasonal effect of the dividend payment, which contributed to the increased debt ratio as of June 2024.

The Board of Directors evaluates its liquidity needs in due time and may, in order to prevent the maximum debt ratio from being reached, consider a capital increase, which might include a contribution in kind.

3.3 Conclusion on outlook for dividends and distributable results

Based on the current existing agreements that will still generate income for an average of 14.08 years, barring unforeseen circumstances, the Company foresees a stable dividend for the 2024 financial year. The Company's solvency is supported by the stable value of its real estate projects and long-term macro trends, in particular the ageing population in the markets where the Company operates.

Taking into account the current economic uncertainty and its impact on Care Property Invest's results, the Company expects to receive €69.5 million in rental income for the 2024 financial year, representing an increase in rental income of approximately 5% compared to the 2023 financial year (total rental income for the 2023 financial year amounted to approximately €66 million).

The Company increases its expectation to realise an adjusted EPRA result of at least €1.05 for the 2024 financial year and maintains its intention to pay a gross dividend of €1.00 per share for the 2024 financial year. After deduction of the 15% withholding tax rate, this results in a net dividend of €0.85 per share.

The Company increases its expectation to realise an adjusted EPRA result of at least €1.05 for the 2024 financial year and maintains its intention to pay a gross dividend of €1.00 per share for the 2024 financial year.
