Turnhout (BE) I De Nieuwe Kaai
To further develop its strategic growth plan, Care Property Invest entered the Irish healthcare real estate market during the first quarter of 2022 with its first transaction being the acquisition of 'Ballincurrig Care Centre', an existing residential care centre in Ballincurrig (County Cork), on 25 February 2022. The project has a total capacity of 55 residential places and a conventional value of approximately €6.2 million.
The attraction of investing in the Irish healthcare real estate market lies mainly in a rapidly ageing population, the (already existing) shortage of nursing home beds, the opportunities that this relatively immature market offers, a solid financing system from the Irish government and a consolidation trend at operator level.
Care Property Invest has the ambition to further expand its portfolio in the short term for which it has concluded a joint statement of intent with Silver Stream Healthcare, one of the largest providers of residential care for older people in Ireland and has already announced several additional projects after closing date.
For more details on the acquired projects in Ireland, we refer to the items '1.1.3. Projects 1st quarter 2022 in Ireland' and '1.2.1.2 Additional projects in Ireland' in this chapter and to the individual press releases on our website www. carepropertyinvest.be.
Ireland has a relatively young population, for which an accelerated ageing wave is predicted by 2051. For example, the Central Bureau for Statistics estimates that the population aged 65 and over will increase by 145% between 2016 and 2051. For people aged 80 and over, an increase of no less than 347% is predicted over the same period. This ageing wave goes hand in hand with high life expectancy, which currently stands at 82.5 years (men and women combined) and is expected to rise further.
The predicted growth in these age groups will necessitate a large increase in the number of nursing home beds in the country. With a total of 32,000 residential places available in its residential care centres, Ireland already faces a capacity shortage, according to the World Health Organisation (WHO). This equates to only 4.3 beds per hundred people aged 65 or over, compared to the WHO's minimum figure of 5. By 2026, there will already be a shortage of about 5,500 residential places. By 2031, an additional 7,500 residential places will have to be created in order to meet the growing demand for elderly care.
In addition, a significant number of public residential care centres are very outdated, which means they do not meet the stringent quality standards imposed by the Health Information and Quality Authority (HIQA) from 2021. These residential care centres will have to be rebuilt or renovated in the coming years. If the costbenefit ratio is not as it should be, they may even have to close, which in turn creates additional opportunities for the private healthcare real estate market. Also, when it comes to introducing alternative forms of living such as assisted living, a concept that is still completely unknown to the Irish care sector, the playing field is now more open than ever.
As far as operators are concerned, Ireland is traditionally a very fragmented market with small-scale players, where a consolidation process has noticeably started in recent years and will continue in the years to come. For example, several international players have recently found their way into the Irish market.
As already announced in separate press releases, Care Property Invest is proud to announce that it has made the following investments after the closing of the 1st quarter of 2022:

| Gross yield compared to the initial issuing price in 1996 | 4.88% | 4.04% |

The weighted average number of outstanding shares was 25,804,456 as at 31 March 2021 and increased to 26,921,924 shares as at 31 March 2022. The number of shares amounted to 25,806,148 as at 31 March 2021 (including 1,692 own shares) and increased to 26,931,116 shares as at 31 March 2022 (including 9,192 own shares).
The number of shares changed as a result of a capital increase in kind on 17 November 2021 for the purchase of 100% of the shares in Apollo Lier nv, which owns the residential care centre with assisted living apartments, 'Dungelhoeff', located in Lier, for which 1,124,968 new shares were issued.
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 €24.85 on 31 March 2022 and €24.60 on 31 March 2021. There are no instruments that have a potentially dilutive effect on the net result per share.
The Company's operating result increased by 45.02% compared to 31 March 2021.
Rental income as at 31 March 2022 increased by 22.25% compared to the same period last year. The increase in rental income is explained by (i) the indexation of the already existing rental agreements (unchanged portfolio), which is on average 4.88% and amounts to €471 thousand as at 31 March 2022, (ii) the acquisition of new investment properties and (iii) the completion of development projects in 2022. Likewise, the acquired and completed investment properties during 2021 contribute to the increased rental income in 2022.
As at 31 March 2022, the Company had no outstanding rent receivables for which receivables had to be transferred to the doubtful debtors.
The Company's general expenses increased by €496,386 compared to 31 March 2021. This increase can be largely attributed to the increase in remuneration and personnel-related costs as the average workforce increased from 19.4 FTEs as at 31 March 2021 to 23.4 FTEs as at 31 March 2022.
In addition, the Company's growth also contributes to the increase in the Company's general expenses and the costs specific to the RREC statute, such as, among others, the UCI tax.
Other operating income and expenses increased from €84,601 as at 31 March 2021 to €127,433 as at 31 March 2022.
As at 31 March 2022, this item consists mainly of the fee for project management of €365,088, which largely concerns the recovery of the pre-financing of existing Dutch projects, contributing to the Company's cash result and the profit and loss margin for the projects of €-221,229. The latter concerns a non-cash element which is corrected for the calculation of the adjusted EPRA earnings.
properties amount to €5,899,341 as at 31 March 2022. The increase reflects an overall positive variation in the fair value of the investment properties in portfolio as a result of inflation expectations on the real estate market and, in addition to this general trend, can be attributed to the variations in fair value of the acquisitions in 2021 and the completion of the 'Résidence des Ardennes' project in Attert (Belgium). Also here it concerns unrealised variations that are corrected in the adjusted EPRA earnings.
Interest charges rose as a result of the additional raising of external funds to finance the acquisitions that took place in the course of 2021 and 2022 on the one hand, and to finance ongoing project developments on the other. The weighted average interest rate amounts to 1.81% as at 31 March 2022. This is a significant decrease compared to the weighted average interest rate of 2.06% as at 31 March 2021. This is due to a lower marginal interest rate that the Company has to pay on new debts that it enters into.
The financial result was positively influenced by the inclusion of the fair value of the financial instruments concluded. Due to an increase in market interest rates, a positive value of €14,190,127 was obtained as at 31 March 2022. As a result, the total impact to date is €-2,592,613 compared to €-16,810,790 as at 31 December 2021.
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.
The amount of taxes as at 31 March 2022 includes deferred taxes related to the portfolio result of the Dutch real estate projects for an amount of €1,380,921. This was included as a precaution, taking into account the possibility that the FBI status (similar to the Belgian RREC status), which was requested for all Dutch subsidiaries, could be refused by the Dutch tax authorities and that the subsidiaries could consequently be taxed on their portfolio result, at the time of the sale of the real estate, according to the generally applicable tax system.
On the basis of the rules of European law, Care Property Invest will continue to strive to obtain the FBI status for its Dutch subsidiaries.
The modification of the calculated exit tax of the subsidiaries has also been included here.
The adjusted EPRA earnings on a consolidated basis amounted to €7,811,587 as at 31 March 2022 compared to €6,198,663 as at 31 March 2021. This represents an increase of 26.02%. The adjusted EPRA earnings per share rose from €0.2402 as at 31 March 2021 to € 0.2902 as at 31 March 2022. This represents an increase of 20.79% and is lower than the increase in total adjusted EPRA earnings due to the increase in the number of issued shares.

The Company's property portfolio increased by €35,408,318 in 2022 due to the acquisition of investment properties, namely the
projects 'Emera Murcia' in Murcia (ES) and 'Ballincurrig Care Centre' in Ballincurrig (IE) and the development projects, namely the projects 'Warm Hart Zuidwolde' in Zuidwolde (NL) and 'Solimar Tavernes Blanques' in Tavernes Blanques (ES). The increase can also be explained by the further development of the projects 'Margaritha Maria Kerk (vicarage)' in Tilburg (NL), 'Sterrenwacht' in Middelburg (NL), 'St. Josephkerk' in Hillegom (NL), 'Aldenborgh' in Roermond (NL), 'Villa Vught' in Vught (NL), 'Mariënhaven' in Warmond (NL), 'Huize Elsrijk' in Amstelveen (NL), 'Amstel' in Ouderkerk aan de Amstel (NL), 'Emera Carabanchel' in Madrid (ES) and 'Emera Mostoles', in Madrid (ES).
The 'Aldenborgh' project in Roermond (NL) was completed during the first quarter of the 2022 financial year.
The projects 'Villa Wulperhorst' in Zeist (NL), 'De Gouden Leeuw' in Zutphen (NL), ' De Orangerie' in Nijmegen (NL) and the church building of the 'Margaritha Maria Kerk' project in Tilburg (NL) were completed during the 2021 financial year.
The real estate experts confirm the fair value of the property portfolio at a total amount of €752.0 million (excluding €1.4 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, 8.5% for the
real estate in The Netherlands and 7.5% for the real estate in Ireland. For real estate in Spain, these are determined by the region where the property is located.
As at 31 March 2022, this item contains €5,042,631 of 'tangible fixed assets for own use'. The increase compared to 31 December 2021 is explained by the further development of the head office in Schoten, of which the provisional delivery took place in January 2022.
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), 'Residentie De Anjers' in Balen (BE), 'De Nieuwe Ceder' in Deinze (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, Balen, Deinze 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. The fair value of the financial leases amounted to €246,856,737 as at 31 March 2022.
The difference between the nominal value of the building lease payments (included under the heading 'finance lease receivables') and the fair value, which at the time of making available is calculated by discounting future cash flows, is included under 'trade receivables' and is depreciated on an annual basis.
Tax receivables and other current assets amounted to €10,167,850 as at 31 December 2021, which was considerably higher than usual. Of this, €8.5 million related to an amount registered in a third-party account with the notary in connection with the purchase of a real estate project, which was completed after year-end.

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

The consolidated debt ratio, calculated in accordance with Article 13, §1, 2° of the RREC Decree, was 47.43% as at 31 March 2022. The available margin as at 31 March 2022 for further investments and completion of the development projects already acquired before reaching a debt ratio of 55% (maximum in the Company's strategy) amounts to € 164.0 million and to €306.5 million before reaching a debt ratio of 60% (imposed in the bank covenants).
The other non-current financial liabilities relate to the inclusion of the fair value of the financial instruments entered into.

(1) In accordance with the RREC Law, the net value per share is calculated on the basis of the total number of shares less own shares. As at 31 March 2022, the Company held 9,192 own shares.
The debt ratio is calculated in accordance with Section 13, paragraph 1, bullet 2 of the RREC-RD (Royal Decree regarding Regulated Real Estate Companies) and amounts to 47.43% as at 31 March 2022. In view of the fact that Care Property Invest's debt ratio does not exceed 50%, it is not subject to mandatory submission of a financial plan as referred to in Section 24 of the RREC Royal Decree.
3.1 Assumptions
On the basis of the balance sheet and the global result statement for the 2021 financial year and the first quarter of 2022, 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:
directly:
• Rental income was increased by the annual indexation and the impact of new investments;
• 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. In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company does not see any impact on the fair value of investment properties to date. However, the increased volatility of interest rates may have an impact on the fair value of financial instruments; • Care Property Invest expects no impact from any doubtful debt;
• 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.
| Period closed on | 31 March 2022 | 31 March 2021 |
|---|---|---|
| EPRA earnings (in €/share) | € 0.28 | € 0.23 |
| Adjusted EPRA earnings (in €/share) (1) | € 0.29 | € 0.24 |
| EPRA costratio (incl. direct vacancy costs) (in %) | 20.27% | 19.35% |
| EPRA costratio (excl. Direct vanancy costs) (in %) | 20.27% | 19.35% |
| Period closed on | 31 March 2022 | 31 December 2021 |
|---|---|---|
| EPRA NAV (in €/share) | € 20.62 | € 20.89 |
| EPRA NNNAV (in €/share) | € 19.68 | € 19.05 |
| EPRA NRV (in €/share) | € 21.61 | € 21.76 |
| EPRA NTA (in €/share) | € 20.61 | € 20.88 |
| EPRA NDV (in €/share) | € 19.68 | € 19.05 |
| EPRA NIY (in %) | 5.10% | 4.87% |
| EPRA adjusted NIY ('topped-up NIY') (in %) | 5.36% | 5.07% |
| EPRA vacancy rate (in %) (2) | 0.05% | 0.08% |
(1) The calculation of the adjusted EPRA earnings takes into account the correction of a number of company-specific non-cash elements.
(2) Care Property Invest only runs a vacancy risk for the Tilia project in Gullegem. For the other projects, the risk is placed with the counterparty and the Company receives the canon/rent, regardless of the occurrence of a certain vacancy. On 31 March 2022, there are 3 vacant flats in the 'Tilia' project.

Middelkerke (BE) I Assistentiewoningen De Stillle Meers
(1) With the exception of the project 'Les Terrasses du Bois' in Watermaal-Bosvoorde, for which a long-term double net agreement was concluded and the project 'Tilia' in Gullegem for which a long-term single net agreement was concluded.
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 Section 13 of the RREC-RD amounts to 47.43% as at 31 March 2022.
The Company forecasts an increase in the debt ratio during the financial year 2022 based on additional investments and further completion of the projects currently in development.
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.
Based on the current contracts, which will still generate income for an average of 15.84 years, barring unforeseen circumstances, the Company assumes an increase in the distributable result and the dividend payment for the 2022 financial year. The Company's solvency is supported by the stable value of its real estate projects.
The Company increased its EPS guidance to €1.17 and its DPS guidance to €0.96.
The Company therefore maintained its guidance on rental income of at least €53 million, which resulted in an increased adjusted EPRA result per share of at least €1.17.
Care Property Invest intends to pay at least a gross dividend of €0.96 per share for the 2022 financial year, compared to the guidance of €0.94 per share given in the Annual Financial Report 2021. After deduction of withholding tax rate of 15%, this results in a net dividend of €0.82 per share.
The Company's activities are performed in an economic climate that involves risks. In the opinion of the board of directors, the risk factors and uncertainties as described in the Company's 2021 Annual Financial Report from page 8 to 21, remain valid for the remaining quarters of the 2022 financial year. The 2021 Annual Financial Report is available on the Company's website, www.carepropertyinvest.be.
