HALF-YEAR REPORT

July 28, 2023 - 7:40 Regulated information

Summary first half of 2023

Qrf Half-year repo rt 2023 | Summary firs t half of 2023 2

MEUR 4.11

EPRA result for H1 2023 increases with 11.91% compared to H1 2022 to MEUR 4.11. EPRA result per share is EUR 0.54, an increase of 8.44%.

EUR 14.47

EPRA NTA per share of EUR 14.47 (compared to EUR 15.65 at the end of 2022), IFRS NAV per share of EUR 15.24 (compared to EUR 16.53 at the end of 2022).

53.27%

Debt ratio of 53.27% as of June 30, 2023, a decrease compared to December 31, 2022 (53.64%).

MEUR 222.19

Fair Value of the property portfolio is MEUR 222.19 at June 30, 2023 (MEUR 233.25 at December 31, 2022). The Fair Value decreases due to the divestment of the property in Dendermonde (MEUR -3.16) and a decrease in Fair Value of the portfolio of MEUR -3.80 (-1.68%). In addition, Qrf holds a financial participation of MEUR 20.00 in the Century Center redevelopment project in Antwerp and holds MEUR 3.55 as Assets held for sale (Namur and Liège).

99.01%

Occupancy rate of 99.01%, compared to 99.35% at December 31, 2022.

Redevelopment Veldstraat 88, Ghent

In the first half of the year, Qrf obtained the final and enforceable building permit for a volume expansion in favor of the 3,500 m² planned office development. In the second half of the year, the keys will be handed over to Nike for the (previously licensed) commercial ground floor.

MEUR 38.75

The extension of available credit lines in the amount of MEUR 45 and an additional credit line of MEUR 10 enables the Company not to have to refinance for the next 24 months. As of June 30, 2023, MEUR 38.75 of the MEUR 159 credit lines are unused.

Interest coverage

At June 30, 2023, Qrf has MEUR 126.25 of financial debt. The average cost of funding is 2.70% (compared to 1.75% at the end of 2022). At June 30, 2023, the coverage ratio was 95.05%.

EUR0.80

Confirmation of gross dividend expectation of EUR 0.80 per share for fiscal year 2023.

Summary first half of 2023

During the first half of the year, Qrf again posted improved commercial and operational results. Thanks to the consistent focus on the long-term relationship with our tenants, the net rental result grew by 17.66% compared to the same period last year to MEUR 7.20. Costs were also kept under control, increasing the operating margin to 81.66% as of June 30, 2023 (an increase compared to 75.96% in H1 2022).

Nevertheless, Qrf also faces a changing and volatile financing cost. As of June 30, 2023, the Company still has a high coverage ratio of 95.05% of the nominal debt position of MEUR 126.25, at a debt ratio of 53.27%.

In addition, in the first half of the year, the Company also neutralized some potential refinancing risk for the next 24 months, thanks to the extension of MEUR 45 of credit lines and the establishment of additional credit lines for MEUR 10.

We believe that inner-city consumption in retail, hospitality and leisure is and will remain resilient even in volatile economic times, so we remain committed to improving our properties, locations and tenant relationships into the future.

Qrf still has a MEUR 20.00 stake in the joint venture redevelopment of the Century Center in Antwerp. Qrf has no future investment commitments, so the realization (and possible sale) of the Century Center can always be used in these uncertain times to reduce the debt position and interest burden. Consequently, there is no need for additional capital to achieve the Company's existing medium-term objectives, including the prospect of a gross dividend of EUR 0.80 per share per year.

RENEWAL OF MEUR 3.15 OF CONTRACTUAL RENTS (22.26% OF TOTAL CONTRACTUAL RENTS) AT THE SAME RENT LEVEL

In contrast to 2021 and 2022, for the leases that had a three-year contractual termination option in the first half of 2023, Qrf renewed the contracts on similar terms to the previous period.

This positive evolution in relettings shows that there is currently no downward pressure on leases upon termination options. This conclusion is in line with market information confirming the strong (re)leasing of inner-city commercial properties.

In addition, five leases (all of which were historically over-let) were not renewed and five new leases were entered into at a rental value in line with the estimated re-let value.

As a result, the occupancy rate of the property portfolio remains at a high level (99.01%).

FINALIZING THE SALES PROGRAM

Qrf sold the property Oude Vest 19-37, Dendermonde in February for net proceeds of MEUR 3.24.

In addition, Qrf has entered into binding sale agreements for the sale of the real estate at Rue de Fer 10, Namur and Rue de la Cathédrale 87-93, Liege. The sales will be finalized in the second half of the year and will bring in MEUR 3.55.

Total net proceeds from sales realized in this year amounted to MEUR 6.76 and were in line with the estimated value.

Qrf also sold in February the already announced exit from the joint venture to redevelop the property at Bondgenotenlaan in Leuven for a value of MEUR 6.44.

REDEVELOPMENT VELDSTRAAT 88, GHENT

In June 2023, the unconditional and executable building permit was obtained for the extension of the existing building Veldstraat 88, Ghent with two new floors to be built. This will provide 3,500 m² of offices in addition to the already leased commercial ground floors. Completion of the offices is scheduled for the end of 2024.

After redevelopment, the entire building will be virtually energy neutral, thanks in part to the use of 100% renewable energy, high-performance insulation and the reuse of water. This example of redevelopment will mean substantially lower energy costs for our tenants.

NEUTRALIZING REFINANCING RISK AND HEDGING INTEREST RATE RISK

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had MEUR 149 of credit lines, of which MEUR 35 matured in 2023.

During the first half of the year, the Company refinanced MEUR 35 credit lines maturing during 2023 until 2028 (MEUR 20), 2029 (MEUR 10) and 2030 (MEUR 5). In addition, the Company has already extended one line of credit maturing in 2024 until 2029 (MEUR 10) and concluded one additional additional line of credit until 2029 (MEUR 10).

As a result, at June 30, 2023, the Company had MEUR 159 of credit lines with seven different financial institutions, with staggered maturities over the period 2024 to 2030, of which the undrawn portion amounted to MEUR 38.75.

Thanks to existing credit lines and taking into account the current nominal debt level (MEUR 126.25), the Company is not forced to renew expiring credits in the next 24 months.

This strategic choice will continue to be maintained into the future in order to minimize refinancing risk.

The increase in financing cost is mainly explained by the purchase of Korenmarkt 1, Ghent at the end of 2022. This purchase amounting to MEUR 21.0 was fully financed by drawing on the existing credit lines and was fully hedged at the end of November 2022 for a period of 10 years by the purchase of an Interest Rate Swap at 2.79%. The financing cost, including margin for the lender, thus amounts to 4.02%.

In addition to this hedging, as of June 30, 2023, the Company also has: MEUR 75.0 financial debt hedged at a weighted average interest rate of 0.52%, representing a total interest cost including margin to the lender of 1.75%; MEUR 24.0 fixed rate financial debt at a financing cost of 2.40% and MEUR 6.0 commercial paper with a weighted average financing cost of 4.03%.

STRENGTHENING EQUITY THROUGH THE CHOICE DIVIDEND

Qrf shareholders opted for 48.5% of their shares to contribute dividend rights in exchange for new shares. This results in a strengthening of equity (capital and share premium) of MEUR 2.06 through the issuance of 216,149 new shares. This brings the total number of Qrf shares to 7,798,886. The remaining dividend rights were paid in cash for a net amount of MEUR 2.19.

1 Notes to the consolidated results for the first half of 2023

1.1 RESULTS

The Net rental result increased to MEUR 7.20 at June 30, 2023 from MEUR 6.12 at June 30, 2022.

This increase is mainly due to the acquisition of the property located at Korenmarkt 1, Ghent at the end of December 2022 (MEUR +0.88); to the indexations of the current leases (MEUR +0.40); and, on the other hand, a negative impact due to renegotiated contracts (MEUR -0.09), terminated contracts (MEUR -0.12) and the realized divestments (MEUR -0.09).

In line with the evolution in the net rental result, the property result increases by 19.60% to MEUR 7.21 (MEUR 6.03 at June 30, 2022). The operating result before the portfolio result amounts to MEUR 5.88 for the first half of 2023, an increase of 26.49% compared to the first half of 2022 (MEUR 4.65). The operating margin increased from 75.96% to 81.66%.

The portfolio result (including share of joint ventures) for the first half of 2023 amounts to MEUR -5.91 and consists of:

» a negative result on the sale of investment properties in the amount of MEUR 0.04 on the sale of the properties located in Dendermonde, Oude Vest 19-37, the property in Namur, Rue de Fer 10 and the property in Liège, Rue de la Cathédrale 87-93;

» a positive revaluation of the real estate value of the joint ventures in the amount of MEUR 0.80;

» negative changes in the Fair Value of investment properties in the amount of MEUR 4.32. These negative variations are due to a negative evolution of the Fair Value of the existing portfolio in Belgium (MEUR -3.91) and a negative evolution of the Fair Value of the existing portfolio in the Netherlands (MEUR -0.41); and finally

» the write-off of capitalized costs incurred in support of the various investment properties (MEUR -2.34), these activations mainly relate to the redevelopment of the Veldstraat Ghent property (MEUR 1.41) and the Korenmarkt in Ghent (MEUR 0.45).

The financial result amounts to MEUR -2.52 for the first half of 2023. The main components of the financial result are:

» the net interest expenses that increased to MEUR 1.70 over the first half of 2023. The average interest rate 2.70% in the first half of 2023 (compared to 1.75% in 2022). The average interest rate increases on the one hand due to rising market interest rates and on the other hand due to the financing of the Korenmarkt 1, Gent which is fully hedged at an interest rate of 4.02%. Another cause for the increase in net interest expense is the application of IFRS 16 to a right of use linked to the premises at Korenmarkt 1, Gent;

» a negative variation in the Fair Value of financial assets and liabilities of MEUR 0.79 due to the revaluation of derivative instruments.

Taxes contribute MEUR 0.08 to the result in the first half of 2023 mainly due to the movement in the temporary difference between the fair and tax value of properties in the Netherlands (MEUR 0.12).

Net income (Group share) decreased to MEUR -2.46, or EUR -0.32 per share.

After adjusting for portfolio result (including share of joint ventures), the variation in the Fair Value of financial assets and liabilities and deferred taxes related to EPRA adjustments, Qrf records an EPRA result for the first half of 2023 of MEUR 4.11, or an increase of 11.91% compared to the first half of 2022 (MEUR 3.68). The EPRA result per share is EUR 0.54, representing an increase of 8.44%.

1.2 BALANCE SHEET

The Fair Value of the investment properties is MEUR 222.19 at June 30, 2023 (compared to MEUR 233.25 at December 31, 2022):

» a write-down of MEUR 4.32 was recorded during the first half of the year;

» the final sale for the property located at Oude Vest 19-47, Dendermonde for MEUR 3.24 was completed during the first half of the year;

» the properties located at Rue de Fer 10, Namur (MEUR 2.80) and Rue de la Cathédrale 87-93 (MEUR 0.75) are held as Assets held for sale as binding sales agreements have been concluded. Final sales are scheduled in the second half of the year;

» for the above sales combined, a capital loss of MEUR 0.04 was recorded with respect to the last Fair Value, mainly due to the capital loss on the realization of the Liège property (MEUR -0.28);

making the Fair Value of the portfolio1 MEUR 222.19 as of June 30, 2023.

In addition to real estate investments, Qrf holds significant financial positions in joint venture companies. The participation for the redevelopment of the Century Center in Antwerp as of June 30, 2023 amounts to MEUR 20.002 . Furthermore, the Company holds MEUR 3.55 as Assets held for sale (Liège and Namur).

1 Excludes Assets held for sale and joint venture projects.

2 Participations of 30% in the project company Ardeno BV and of 30% in the project company Pelican BV together with long-term receivables of MEUR 0.62.

The portfolio's Gross Rental Yield increased slightly compared to the end of 2022 to 6.36%.

Group Equity decreased to MEUR 118.89 at June 30, 2023 (compared to MEUR 125.38 at December 31, 2022), this is mainly due to the payment of the dividend and the write-down of the Fair Value of investment properties during the first half of the year.

IFRS NAV per share decreases by 7.78% from EUR 16.53 at December 31, 2022 to EUR 15.24 at June 30, 2023. EPRA NTA per share decreases by 7.54% from EUR 15.65 to EUR 14.47 over the same period.

The Debt Ratio decreases slightly to 53.27% compared to December 31, 2022 (53.64%).

1.3 FINANCING STRUCTURE

1.3.1 Composition of debts

At June 30, 2023, Qrf has MEUR 126.25 of financial debt consisting of:

» Bilateral credit lines drawn in the amount of MEUR 120.25. The weighted average remaining maturity of the borrowings is 3.6 years.

» Commercial Paper in the amount of MEUR 6.00. The full amount of outstanding short-term treasury bills is covered by available long-term credit lines (back-up lines).

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had MEUR 149 of credit lines, of which MEUR 35 matured in 2023.

During the first half of the year, the Company refinanced MEUR 35 lines of credit that were due to expire during 2023 until 2028 (MEUR 20), 2029 (MEUR 10) and 2030 (MEUR 5). In addition, the Company has already extended to 2029 (MEUR 10) one credit line due to mature in 2024 and concluded one additional additional credit line to 2029 (MEUR 10).

As a result, at June 30, 2023, the Company had MEUR 159 of credit lines with seven different financial institutions, with staggered maturity dates over the period 2024 to 2030, of which the undrawn portion amounted to MEUR 38.75. The weighted average remaining maturity of the credit lines is 3.7 years.

Thanks to existing credit lines and taking into account the current nominal debt level (MEUR 126.25), the Company is not forced to renew expiring credits in the next 24 months.

This strategic choice will continue to be maintained into the future in order to minimize refinancing risk.

The increase in the Net rental result as of June 30, 2023 compared to June 30, 2022 is mainly due to the acquisition of the property located at Korenmarkt 1, Ghent at the end of December 2022 (MEUR +0.88); from the indexations of the current leases (MEUR +0.40); and, on the other hand, a negative impact due to renegotiated contracts (MEUR -0.09), terminated contracts (MEUR -0.12) and the realized divestments (MEUR -0.09).

The decrease in property costs is mainly the result of a decrease in Technical costs (KEUR -72) and a decrease in Property Management costs (KEUR -28). The decrease in Technical costs is explained by lower repairs to properties during 2023 and a one-time settlement of past costs in 2022. The decrease in Property Management Costs is mainly explained by exceptional costs of a temporary agency worker in 2022.

The Company's General expenses remain stable compared to last year. The limited increase (+3.3%) is mainly explained by indexed contracts due to increasing longevity.

The present value of future Rental Income up to the first maturity date of the leases has collection terms below:

In Belgium, most Qrf commercial leases are for a period of 9 years, in principle terminable by the tenant at the end of the third and sixth year subject to 6 months' notice before the expiration date. In Belgium, most Qrf commercial leases are for a period of 9 years, in principle terminable at the end of the third and sixth year subject to 6 months' notice before the expiration date.

In the Netherlands, most Qrf commercial leases are for a period of 5 years, which may contractually grant an option to renew for a period of 5 or 10 years on the part of the lessee, with a termination option on the part of the lessee at the end of the first period, as well as at the end of each subsequent period provided that it is followed by a subsequent option to renew on the part of the lessee.

Contractual rental income over five years is the contractual rent for the State Archives in Bruges, this contract expires in 2037. To ensure compliance with the obligations imposed on the tenant under the agreement, the tenant, both in Belgium and in the Netherlands, must in principle provide a rental deposit, usually in the form of a bank guarantee worth three to six months' rent.

Rents, for both Belgium and the Netherlands, are usually paid monthly (sometimes quarterly) in advance and are usually indexed annually at maturity. Taxes and duties, including property tax and common costs are mainly borne by the tenant.

At the beginning of the contract, a site description is in principle drawn up between the parties by an independent expert. At the expiry of the agreement, the tenant must return the premises rented by him in the condition described in the inventory at the time of entry, subject to normal wear and tear. The tenant cannot assign the lease or sublet all or part of the premises except with the prior written consent of the landlord. The tenant has the obligation to register the agreement at his expense.

The results on disposals of investment properties are due to the sales of the properties in Dendermonde, Namur and Liège. The final sale of the properties in Namur and Liège will take place in the second half of the year, these are held as Assets held for sale as of June 30. The variations in the Fair Value of investment properties are the result, on the one hand, of the variations due to the independent estimation by the Property Expert (KEUR -4,321), on the other hand, of the depreciation of Capex (KEUR -2,342). The variations can be split geographically between those in Belgium (KEUR -6,245) and those in the Netherlands (KEUR -418).

The average yield applied by the property expert is 5.61% on 30/06/2023 (5.56% on 31/12/2022). In 2023, on the one hand, we had months of high indexation percentages, on the other hand, the sale of (commercial) real estate, just like in 2022, came to a standstill. This mainly resulted in an increase in the yield and, to a limited extent, an adjustment in the ERV. In addition, the valuation of properties in the Netherlands takes into account a transfer tax of 10.4% instead of 8% (as of 2023). An increase in the yield of 0.25% would result in a negative variation in the Fair Value of the property of MEUR 9.94. A decrease in ERV of 2% would result in a negative variation in the Fair Value of the property of approximately MEUR 4.44.

Qrf is exposed to increases in financial costs that may be caused by a rise in interest rates. To mitigate this risk, Qrf has partially converted floating interest rates into fixed interest rates through Interest Rate Swaps entered into with various financial institutions. The maturity of these financial instruments is aligned with the maturity of Qrf's loans. If interest rates fall sharply in the long term, the market value of these Interest Rate Swaps may become sharply negative, with the result that the cost would increase to cancel these contracts.

The Average Interest Cost in the first half of 2023 is 2.70%, including the credit margin and interest expense resulting from Interest Rate Swaps. At June 30, 2023, 95.05% of recorded debt had fixed interest rates, including through the use of Interest Rate Swaps as a hedging instrument.

Note 6. INVESTMENT PROPERTY

Qrf concluded binding sales agreements for three properties in the first half of the year. The Fair Value of these properties (Oude Vest 19-37, Dendermonde: MEUR 3.16, Rue de Fer 10, Namur: MEUR 2.61 and Rue de la Cathédrale 87-93, Liège: MEUR 1.03) was initially transferred to Assets held for sale. The property located in Dendermonde was definitively sold during the second quarter; the final sale of properties in Namur and Liège will take place in the second half of the year.

The capitalized expenses consist, on the one hand, of MEUR 1.42 Capex for Gent, Veldstraat 88 and, on the other hand, of MEUR 0.79 from capitalization of investments, mainly in Huy, Shopping Mosan (MEUR 0.34) and Gent, Korenmarkt (MEUR 0.452 ). The variation in Fair Value of the investment properties is discussed in Note 4.

Investment properties are recorded at Fair Value in accordance with IFRS 13.

The Company has contractual investment obligations for an amount of MEUR 0.7. These mainly relate to the investments in the retail section in Veldstraat in Ghent. The obligations in connection with the long-term lease on part of the property in the Korenmarkt in Ghent, with a term until 2063, were entered on the balance sheet in accordance with IFRS 16 and are therefore not recognized off the balance sheet.

2 This mainly relates to the entry under IFRS16 regarding the indexation of lease payments.

There were no capital operations in fiscal years 2014, 2018 and 2020.

In the context of the optional dividend for the 2022 financial year, Qrf shareholders opted for 48.5% of their shares for a contribution of dividend rights in exchange for new shares. This results in a strengthening of equity (capital and issue premium) for Qrf of MEUR 2.06 through the issue of 216,149 new shares. This brings the total number of Qrf shares to 7,798,886. The other net dividend rights were paid out in cash for a net amount of MEUR 2.19. The withholding tax withheld on all dividends amounted to MEUR 1.81.

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had MEUR 149 of credit lines, of which MEUR 35 matured in 2023.

During the first half of the year, the Company refinanced MEUR 35 credit lines maturing during 2023 until 2028 (MEUR 20), 2029 (MEUR 10) and 2030 (MEUR 5). In addition, the Company has already extended one line of credit maturing in 2024 until 2029 (MEUR 10) and concluded one additional additional line of credit until 2029 (MEUR 10). During this period, MEUR 11.8 in loans were repaid and an additional MEUR 3 was drawn under the commercial paper programme.

As a result, at June 30, 2023, the Company had MEUR 159 of credit lines with seven different financial institutions, with staggered maturity dates over the period 2024 to 2030, of which the undrawn portion amounted to MEUR 38.75.

Thanks to existing credit lines and taking into account the current nominal debt level (MEUR 126), the Company is not forced to renew expiring credits in the next 24 months.

This strategic choice will continue to be maintained into the future in order to minimize refinancing risk.

Given the current economic context with highly fluctuating interest rates, no nominal estimate of future interest expenses is given, as this is highly dependent on the changing EURIBOR. The known parameters to calculate the future interest expenses are, on the one hand, the weighted average interest rate on fixed-rate loans, which is 2.4% for the Company, and, on the other hand, the weighted average margin applied by the banks on variable-rate loans, which is 1.24% for the Company.

The risk of changing EURIBOR is mitigated by the Company through the hedging instruments, as of June 30, 2023, the hedging ratio was 95.05%.

The MEUR 6 Commercial Paper held at June 30, 2023 matures within the 1-year period and has an average funding cost of 4.03%.

The categories correspond to following financial instruments:

A. Assets or liabilities held at Fair Value through the income statement.

B. Financial assets or liabilities (including receivables and loans) at amortized cost.

C. Cash investments at amortized cost.

All the Group's financial instruments correspond to levels 1 and 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Valuation at Fair Value is carried out on a regular basis.

Level 1 in the hierarchy of Fair Values retains cash and cash equivalents.

Level 2 in the Fair Value hierarchy concerns other financial assets and liabilities whose Fair Value is based on other data that can be determined, directly or indirectly, for the assets or liabilities in question.

The valuation techniques concerning the Fair Value of Level 2 financial instruments are as follows:

» The item "Authorized Hedging Instruments" relates to Interest Rate Swaps (IRS) whose Fair Value is determined using interest rates applicable to active markets, generally provided by financial institutions. Derivative financial products are initially recognized at their cost and are remeasured at their Fair Value at the subsequent reporting date.

» The Fair Value of other level 2 financial assets and liabilities is almost equal to their nominal value: either because they have a short-term maturity (such as trade receivables and payables) or because they bear variable interest rates.

» The Fair Value of fixed rate debt is estimated based on a discounting of their future cash flows taking into account the Group's credit risk.

DEBT RATIO 53.27% 53.64%

The indebtedness referred to in Article 13 of the RREC RD is MEUR 132.94 at December 31, 2022. The Debt Ratio is 53.27% at June 30, 2023.

The Debt Ratio is calculated as the ratio of indebtedness (i.e. liabilities excluding provisions, accruals and other long/short-term financial liabilities, to total assets (i.e. total assets excluding the positive variations in the Fair Value of hedging instruments)

Qrf must permanently meet the financial ratios imposed by the RREC Law. Unless due to a variation in the Fair Value of the assets, the Debt Ratio of a Qrf must not exceed 65% of its assets, net of authorized hedging instruments, in accordance with Article 45 of the RREC Law. Should Qrf's Debt Ratio exceed 50%, it must take a number of steps, including preparing a financial plan describing the measures that will be taken to prevent the Debt Ratio from rising above 65%. The annual financial costs associated with the indebtedness of a RREC and its subsidiaries may not at any time exceed 80% of Qrf's consolidated net operating income. In addition, certain financing agreements with financial institutions include a covenant that Qrf's Debt Ratio should not exceed 60%.

The Debt Ratio is 53.27% at June 30, 2023. Pursuant to Article 24 of the RREC RD, the public RREC must prepare a financial plan with an implementation schedule when its consolidated Debt Ratio exceeds 50% of consolidated assets. This financial plan shall describe the measures that will be taken to prevent the consolidated Debt Ratio from exceeding 65% of consolidated assets. The financial plan is the subject of a special report by the Statutory Auditor confirming that the latter has verified the manner in which the plan was drawn up, particularly with regard to its economic bases, and that the figures contained therein are consistent with those in the public RREC's accounts. The general guidelines of the financial plan are included in the annual and semi-annual financial reports. The annual and semi-annual financial reports describe and justify how the financial plan was implemented during the relevant period and how the public RREC will implement the plan in the future.

N 10.1 HISTORICAL EVOLUTION OF THE DEBT RATING

Qrf's Debt Ratio as of June 30, 2023 was 53.27%, exceeding the 50% limit. At the end of the of fiscal years 2020, 2021 and 2022, the Debt ratio was 48.79%, 50.29% and 53.64%, respectively.

N 10.2 EVOLUTION SHORT-TERM DEBT RATIO

The following assumptions are taken into account in preparing the projection of the Debt Ratio as of June 30, 2023:

» in the calculation of the Short-term Debt Ratio, the changes in the portfolio take into account the (dis)investments already planned. After the balance sheet date, sales will be finalized for net proceeds of MEUR 3.55 for the two properties included in Assets held for sale (Liège, Rue de la Cathédrale and Namur, Rue de Fer). These properties were already held at June 30 at the same value under Assets held for sale, i.e. no capital gain or loss is included in this financial plan;

» the profit reservation takes into account the profit forecast for the second half of 2023 and the first half of 2024 and the dividend payment (incl. estimated optional dividend subscription) for fiscal year 2023. For the estimate of the optional dividend, the same percentage was used as the effective subscription of the optional dividend for fiscal year 2022 (48.5%).

Taking into account these assumptions, the Debt Ratio at June 30, 2024 would be 51.64%.

N 10.3 EVOLUTION LONG-TERM DEBT RATIO

The Board of Directors of the Sole Director's long-term objective is a Debt Ratio of up to 55% and considers this to be optimal for the shareholders of the RREC in terms of return and EPRA earnings per share. For each investment, the impact on the Debt Ratio is considered and possibly not retained if this investment would negatively impact the Debt Ratio. Based on the current Debt Ratio of 53.27%, Qrf has an investment potential of MEUR 42.00 without exceeding a Debt Ratio of 60% and an investment potential of MEUR 83.70 without exceeding a Debt Ratio of 65%.

N 10.4 DECISION

Qrf is therefore of the opinion that the Debt Ratio will not exceed 65% and that no additional measures should be taken at this time, depending on prevailing economic and real estate trends, planned investments and the expected evolution of the RREC's equity. Should certain events require an adjustment of the RREC's policy, this will be done without delay and the RREC's shareholders will be informed in the RREC's periodic reporting.

Note 11. CONSOLIDATION CIRCLE

As of June 30, 2023, the consolidation perimeter consists of Qrf and its Perimeter Companies:

  • » 100% RIGS NV;

  • » 30% Ardeno BV;
  • » 30% Pelican BV.

5.8 AUDITOR'S REPORT

Statutory auditor's report to the board of directors of QRF NV on the review of the condensed consolidated interim financial information as at 30 June 2023 and for the 6-month period then ended

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of financial position of QRF NV as at 30 June 2023, the condensed consolidated statements of profit or loss, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the 6-month period then ended, and notes to the condensed interim financial information ("the condensed consolidated interim financial information"). The board of directors is responsible for the preparation and presentation of this condensed consolidated interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34, "Interim Financial Reporting" as adopted by the European Union. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this condensed consolidated interim financial information based on our review.

Scope of Review

We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity". A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial information as at 30 June 2023 and for the 6-month period then ended is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34, "Interim Financial Reporting" as adopted by the European Union.
