VGP has three main business segments, being Development, Investment and Renewable Energy. Each reports its own Ebitda and KPI's. Overall, VGP increased its Ebitda to € 354.4 million (versus € 225.2 million in '23), with solid Ebitda growth in each of its business segments.
At the 31st of December 2024, the signed and renewed rental income amounted to € 91.6 million1 bringing the total committed annualised rental income to € 412.6 million2 (equivalent to 6.5 million sqm of lettable area) an 17.6% increase since December 2023. On a proportional look through basis the total committed annualised rental income amounts to € 272.2 million, an increase of € 32.3 million, or 13.4% since December 2023.
The increase was driven by 631,000 sqm of new lease agreements signed, corresponding to € 60.3 million of new annualised rental income3 , an increase of 45% compared to FY '23. During the same period amendments were made on 34,000 sqm of lease agreements for a total annual income increase of € 2.8 million. Indexation accounted for € 8.0 million over 2024 (of which € 5.8 million to the joint ventures). Terminations represented a total of € 9.3 million or 163,000 sqm, of which € 6.5 million withing the Joint Ventures' portfolio4.

From a geographic perspective, Western Europe, accounted for 81% (and Germany 47%), or € 49.0 million of the incremental new lease agreements. The significant growth has been mainly driven by customers with light industrial activity. This segment accounted for 65% (€ 39.3 million) of all new lease agreements. Some examples of new lease agreements include Stellantis (Opel) in VGP Park Russelsheim, Germany; Mobis, in VGP Park Pamplona Noáin, Spain; Isar Aerospace in VGP Park Münich, Germany; Verne in VGP Park Zagreb, Croatia; Mutti in VGP Park Parma Paradigna, Italy; VAT Global in VGP Park Arad, Romania; Fuyao Glass in VGP Park Kecskemét 2, Hungary, JYSK in VGP Park Valencia Cheste, Spain, De Boer Logistics in VGP Park Leipzig Flughafen 2 and Best4Tires in VGP Park Berlin Bernau.
4 "Joint ventures" refers to VGP European Logistics (the First Joint Venture), VGP European Logistics 2 (the Second Joint Venture) and VGP Park München (the Third Joint Venture), all three joint ventures with Allianz Real Estate; as well as the Fifth Joint Venture with Deka and the Sixth Joint Venture with Areim
A total of 72 lease contracts were concluded in 14 countries. The average size1 of the new lease agreements corresponds to approximately 10,000 sqm. On top, 99% of the new lease agreements contain specific, so called green lease provisions. These are designed to improve energy efficiency, reduce waste and lower the overall environmental impact of a property and 74% of the new lease agreements include a specific clause ("dark green") related to procurement of electricity from renewable sources.


The weighted average term2 of the leases stands at 8.0 years for the entire portfolio under management, which is 9.7 years in the own portfolio and 7.2 years in the Joint Venture portfolio. Over 2024, VGP has successfully renewed € 20.5 million3 of annualised rental income. Rental levels on reletting4 were on average 5.1% higher in comparison to the last active rental agreement in the respective locations.
Per December 2024, € 349.9 million, or 85% of the annualised rental income has become cash generative as the underlying space has been handed over to the respective tenants. Over the next twelve months another € 39 million will become effective as summarized in the table below.
| in € mln | Annualised rental income effective before 31/12/2024 |

The top ten customers of VGP, including those of the Joint Ventures, represents € 130.6 million of annualised rental income, or 31% of the total annualised rental income. They consist of a mix of our three segments, but the largest are represented by the light industrial and e-commerce category. The weighted average lease term of the top ten customers stands at 10.7 years. Siemens occupies a brownfield site and also Opel's committed annualised rental income partially relates to the current occupation of a brownfield site. Both locations will, in time, be reconverted into a newly developed state of the art industrial park, with the potential to generate a substantial higher amount of rental income.

A substantial part of the projects under construction are scheduled for delivery in '25. This remains subject to leasing activity and tenant specific fit-out requirements which may influence the actual expected hand-over date of the assets.
During 2024, we have seen, in various countries, favourable construction pricing and nearly 100% of projects started up in 2024 are earmarked for at least 'BREEAM Excellent' or equivalent, including 7% that are targeted to achieve BREEAM Outstanding.

Development activity FY2024 (in sqm)1

VGP is currently looking to expand it's active footprint into the United Kingdom. A first project, with a development potential of minimum 75,000 sqm in the United Kingdom has been acquired in '25.
During the year 21 projects were completed delivering 584,000 sqm, of lettable area, representing € 36.1 million of annualised committed leases once fully leased. It concerns 12 buildings for a total surface of 315,000 sqm in the own portfolio and 9 buildings for a total surface area of 269,000 sqm on behalf of the Joint Ventures portfolio. Of this 269,000 sqm, five assets, totalling 221,000 sqm have been subject of a closing with their respective Joint Venture in '24. The remaining assets on behalf of the Joint Venture are likely subject to a transaction with the respective Joint Venture partner in '25. The delivered portfolio of '24 is 94% let.

During the year VGP acquired 702,000 sqm of development land and a further 1,348,000 sqm has been committed, subject to permits. VGP sold, as a result of the disposal of the LPM Joint Venture, 720,000 sqm of land, which brings the remaining total owned and committed land bank for development to 8.7 million sqm, which has a development potential of at least 3.6 million sqm of future lettable area. Given the available space on the development potential and the existing portfolio, VGP has the ability to increase its rental income by minimum € 253 million, up to more than € 666 million4. These include an already secured pre-let on development land in amount of € 20.9 million rental income, or 135,000 sqm.
4 Including Joint Ventures at 100%
1 Due to changes in gross lettable area in '24 on the portfolio under construction as at year-end '23, 1,000 sqm has been added to the opening balance
Main acquisitions of '24 are located in Denmark, Croatia, Hungary, Italy, Spain and Germany with the largest acquisitions and commitments being:
Land bridge (in million sqm)

The land bank is geographically spread between Eastern (46%) and Western Europe (54%) in square meters. The largest land positions are held in Germany (21.8%), France (12.5%), Serbia (11.0%) and Romania (10.1%). Following the sale of VGP's share in LPM (720,000 sqm) VGP now holds 98% of the land bank (owned or committed) in its own portfolio, whereas 2% is in co-ownership with various Joint Venture partners. It concerns Grekon (34,035 sqm) in Germany and Belartza (145,215 sqm) in Spain.

The total portfolio, including assets from Joint Ventures under management of the VGP Group, now contain 276 buildings (34 buildings under construction and 242 completed buildings) for a total surface of 6.8 million sqm, spread over 15 countries. These include 2.1 million sqm of assets, or 81 buildings in the own portfolio (of which 1.4 million sqm or 48 buildings are completed assets) and 4.6 million sqm and 195 buildings in the Joint Ventures.

1 These include assets under construction on behalf of the Joint Ventures totalling 89,000 sqm. These assets are legally owned by the Joint Venture but have not been part of a transaction yet with the Joint Venture partner. VGP finances these developments through development loans to the Joint Venture, which are also classified as assets held for sale.
2 Normalized for brownfield assets that are currently under a short term lease and will be redeveloped in the short to mid-term
VGP owns a number of Joint Ventures which are reported under equity method in the IFRS statements. These predominantly 50:50 Joint Ventures own mainly completed assets on which VGP Group also retains asset management services. In order to increase transparency and comparability of the Joint Ventures you may find below additional performance measures calculated in accordance with the Best Practices Recommendations of the European Public Real Estate Association (EPRA). These measures are provided at share, in particular for the First, Second, Third, Fifth and the Sixth Joint Venture. The Development Joint Ventures have been excluded as these only contain development land to date.

EPRA earnings increased with 14.8% versus '23, whilst EPRA NTA grew 27.5%. This is mainly due to the changes in scope of the Joint Ventures, given the annualised effect of the Joint Venture acquisitions in '23 and further closings with the Fifth and Sixth Joint Venture in '24.
Furthermore, VGP has been able to recycle a record amount of € 809 million cash on transactions with Joint Ventures in '24. Given the Group retains asset management services 'to the joint ventures', these fees have substantially grown to € 32 million and are expected to increase further in '25 and beyond given the growth of the Joint Ventures. On top of the transaction proceeds, the growing and recurring Joint Venture asset management fee, the Group also received 'excess' cash distributions from its Joint Ventures in amount of € 85.6 million.
In '25 VGP expects to execute a number of transactions with existing Joint Ventures and is looking to expanding its Joint Venture model with new and/or existing Joint Venture partners.
The First Joint Venture was established in May 2016 with an objective to build a platform of new, grade A logistics and industrial properties with a key focus on expansion in core German markets and high growth CEE markets (of Hungary, the Czech Republic and the Slovak Republic) with the aim of delivering stable income-driven returns with potential for capital appreciation. The First Joint Venture had a target to increase its portfolio size (i.e. the gross asset value of the acquired income generating assets) to circa € 1.7 billion by May 2021 at the latest, via the contribution to the First Joint Venture of new logistics developments carried out by VGP. The First Joint Venture's strategy is therefore now primarily a hold strategy.
As at 31 December 2024, the First Joint Venture's property portfolio consists of 104 completed buildings representing a total lettable area of over 1,973,000 sqm. Although the First Joint Venture reached its expanded investment target, some add-on closings related to existing tenant extension options may still occur in the future. The First Joint Venture will maintain its existing portfolio with VGP continuing to act as property, facility and asset manager.
Finally, VGP may be entitled to a promote payment from the First Joint Venture at (i) a liquidity event or (ii) after the lapse of the initial ten year period, which occurs in H1 '26. The magnitude of the promote distribution by the First Joint Venture will be based on the IRR track record of the Joint Venture and is subject to a number of parameters that can only be accurately determined at maturity.
The Second Joint Venture was established in July 2019 with the objective to build a platform of core, prime logistic assets in Austria, Italy, the Netherlands, Portugal, Romania and Spain with the aim of delivering stable income-driven returns with potential for capital appreciation.
The Second Joint Venture 's exclusive right of first refusal in relation to acquiring newly built assets in the relevant countries expired as of 31 July 2024. It's strategy is therefore primarily a hold strategy. As at 31 December 2024, the Second Joint Venture's property portfolio consists of 42 completed buildings representing a total lettable area of over 926,000 sqm.
Although the Second Joint Venture reached its investment period, some add-on closings related to outstanding development assets may still occur in the future.
The Third Joint Venture was established in June 2020 with an objective to develop VGP Park München. Once fully developed, VGP Park München will consist of five industrial buildings, two stand-alone parking houses and one office building for a total gross lettable area of approx. 323,000 sqm. The park is entirely pre-let. Since its establishment, three closings with the Third Joint Venture have occurred.
The financing of the development capex of the Third Joint Venture occurs through shareholder loans and/or capital contributions by the shareholders in proportion to their respective shareholding or from bank financing.
Upon completion of the respective building(s), a closing with Allianz occurred which allowed the Group to receive the proportional share price allocated to the building(s) from Allianz and to partially/totally recycle its initially invested capital in respect of the building(s).
The park has currently three tenants, KraussMaffei – with 212,000 sqm gross lettable area – and BMW – with 64,000 sqm gross lettable area – occupy the existing park and the last remaining development building, which is to be completed by 2026 will provide 44,000 sqm gross lettable area and has been leased in '24 to the company ISAR Aerospace SE.
Finally, in 2024, VGP Park Munich drew an additional credit facility of € 84.5 million that will be used for the financing of the development of the last outstanding building leased to ISAR Aerospace SE.
VGP has signed as per 21 July 2023 a Joint Venture agreement with Deka Immobilien, a prominent real estate investment company. The joint venture endeavours that two of Deka Immobilien's public funds, Deka Westinvest InterSelect and Deka Immobilien Europa, acquired a 50% stake in five project companies owned by VGP.
These project companies own and operate five strategically located parks in Germany, namely Gießen – Am alten Flughafen, Laatzen, Göttingen 2, Magdeburg and Berlin Oberkrämer. These parks boast a portfolio of 20 buildings, generating a total annualised rental income of € 52.9 million at the time of the transaction.
The transaction was foreseen to be executed in three closings, the first one in Q3 2023, the second one in Q2 2024, which comprised of two assets located in Berlin Oberkrämer and Gießen – Am alten Flughafen for a total gross asset value of € 281.3 million, and the third one, a building in VGP Park Magdeburg for a total gross asset value of € 103.5 million in Q3 2024. All have been executed according the initial agreed timeframe and pricing, as such the Joint Venture now holds € 1.16 billion of gross asset value in assets, where VGP retains asset management services in a similar scope to its existing partnerships with Allianz Real Estate. To facilitate the joint venture, parties have agreed to refinance the joint venture with an approximative LTV of 30%. Consequently, VGP recycled € 681 million of net cash from all closings to date.
As per 15 December 2023 VGP entered into a new Joint Venture agreement with AREIM Pan-European Logistics Fund (D) AB, or Areim, on a 50:50 basis, with the purpose of investing into VGP developed assets in Germany, Czech Republic, France, Slovakia and Hungary. The venture will utilize debt up to a loan-to-value of 40%, up from the initial target of 35%. The investor, Areim, has committed a € 500 million equity investment. The investment period lasts until 15 December 2028, with possibilities to extend the Joint Venture by mutual agreement.
A seed portfolio closing has taken place in H1 2024, comprising of 17 developed properties, equalling 450,000 sqm, in Germany (8), Czech Republic (5) and Slovakia (4) for a total gross asset value of € 436.5 million, resulting in net cash proceeds of € 270.2 million. A second closing took place in December 2024, comprising 4 developed properties, equalling 114,000 sqm in Germany (1), Czech Republic (1), Slovakia (1) and France (1), for a total gross asset value of € 120 million, resulting in net cash proceeds of € 79.3 million. In many ways the Joint Venture is similar to the Allianz Joint Ventures, being that the Sixth Joint Venture has a right of first refusal, but limited to all buildings of a specific development pipeline within the target countries over the investment period.
As at 31 December 2024, the Sixth Joint Venture's property portfolio consists of 21 completed buildings representing a total lettable area of over 564,000 sqm and are 100% let.
The joint venture targets a comprehensive ESG strategy, with criteria defined around EU taxonomy compliance, EPC, BREEAM standards, and more. As is the case with similar Joint Ventures, VGP will act as the asset, property and development manager of the Joint Venture.
The VGP Park Belartza Joint Venture was set up as a 50:50 joint venture with VUSA. The objective of this joint venture is to provide an additional source of land to the Group for land plots which would otherwise not be accessible to it. The VGP Park Belartza Joint Venture aims to develop ca. 64,000 sqm of logistics lettable area. In April 2024, VGP and VUSA agreed to increase the stake of VGP in the Joint Venture to 75%.
The VGP Park Belartza, located in the vicinity of San Sebastian in the North of Spain, targets the development of a mixed (logistics/commercial) park whereby VGP will lead the logistic development and VUSA will lead the commercial development. The VGP Park Belartza Joint Venture has the right to sell and VGP the right to acquire the logistics income generating assets developed by VGP Park Belartza Joint Venture. VUSA has the right to acquire the commercial income generating assets developed by VGP Park Belartza Joint Venture. The project is currently proceeding well with obtaining the necessary zoning permits.
The VGP Park Siegen Joint Venture is set up as a 50:50 joint venture with Revikon. The objective of this joint venture is to convert a brownfield with ca. 21,000 sqm of lettable space located in the vicinity of the city of Siegen, Germany. In 2023 a part of the development has been sold and since then the brownfield has been undergoing further demolishment works in preparation of its future development. Further milestones are expected to be reached during 2025.
The LPM Joint Venture was established in November 2020 with an objective to develop Logistics Park Moerdijk (Netherlands) together with the Port Authority Moerdijk on a 50:50 basis. Logistics Park Moerdijk is situated in between the Port of Rotterdam (the Netherlands) and the Port of Antwerp (Belgium).
In February 2024, VGP agreed on selling the project in its current status and recycled proceeds of ca € 171.4 million.
The gross renewable energy income over 2024 was € 8.3 million compared to € 4.4 million over FY2023. This was driven by an increase of 96% in the effective production sold in 2024 to 90 GWh. The operational solar capacity increased significantly to 155.7 MWp, up 53% year-over-year which should equate to a marketable production potential of circa 130 GWh.
As of December 2024, a total of 39 projects representing 41.0 MWp are under construction. Including projects under construction the total solar power generation capacity will increase to 196.8 MWp spread over 147 roof-projects in 10 countries. As at the 31st of December 2024 this represents a total aggregate investment amount of € 121 million (incl. current commitments for projects under construction).
With regards to the pipeline, an additional 97 solar power projects are in contractual/design phase (including in 4 additional countries) which equates to an added power generation capacity of 90.9 MWp. The current total solar portfolio, including pipeline projects, totals 287.7 MWp.
Of VGP's solar plants in operation 43% is used for self-consumption. The remainder of this green energy is provided to the grid. In order to enhance self-consumption and contribute to a more stable and efficient energy grid, VGP is in the process of setting up Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS). The first two BESS units for a combined 6.8 MWh are being installed, with an additional 45.1 MWh in the design phase and 38.8 MWh under feasibility assessment. This represents a total BESS pipeline of 90.7 MWh or a total investment exceeding € 20 million in order to support sustainable and resilient energy solutions.
Total cash balance as at 31 December 2024 stood at € 493 million. The group has undrawn revolving credit facilities of € 500 million, providing a liquidity position of nearly € 1 billion. The revolving credit facilities have been increased from € 400 million to € 500 million and contain a specific credit facility for guarantees in amount of € 50 million.
During '24 VGP was able to recycle net € 809 million from closings with respectively the Fifth and Sixth Joint venture, as well as the disposal of the Development Joint Venture LPM.
VGP drew € 135 million on a total facility of € 150 million in February '24. This credit facility with the European Investment Bank has a ten year term at a fixed interest rate of 4.15%. The remaining € 15 million will be drawn upon further progress in the business unit of VGP Renewable Energy.
VGP repaid € 75 million of its outstanding bonds in July 2024. At 31 December '24, the average cost of debt has lowered to 2.20% and will lower further to 2.15% following the March '25 bond repayment of € 80 million. The average term of the credit facilities amounts to 3.8 years. A dividend of € 101 million has been paid out in May '24.
The proportional on a look through basis LTV amounts to 48.3% (versus 53.4% at year-end '23) and the gearing ratio amounts to 33.6% (versus 40.3% at year-end '23).
In September 2024, during its annual review, Fitch Ratings affirmed a 'BBB-' investment grade rating with Outlook Stable on VGP.
The Group's environmental, social, and governance (ESG) assessments by extra-financial rating agencies were updated in 2024. The GRESB Developer score was confirmed at 95 out of 100, equivalent to a four-star rating and the highest in our peer group. VGP maintained its A rating in the MSCI ESG assessment and obtained an ESG Risk Rating of 11.7 by Sustainalytics equivalent to "Negligible" risk of experiencing material financial impacts from ESG factors and part of the 15% least ESG risk real estate operators globally.
VGP maintained its position in the Euronext BEL 20 ESG index. The BEL ESG Index is designed to identify the 20 highest-ranked companies in Belgium that exhibit the lowest ESG risks.
Katherina Reiche has decided to step down from her position as a board and remuneration committee member. The board has accepted her resignation, and by mutual agreement, she will continue to serve as an active member until the shareholders' meeting on May 9.
The board of directors proposes to the annual shareholders meeting an ordinary gross dividend distribution of € 3.30 per share, or € 90 million. This compares to an ordinary dividend of € 2.95 per share in '24 or an increase of 12%.
VGP expects to substantially grow it's net rental income, including the Joint Ventures at share, following the expected delivery of € 39 million new lease agreements in '25, as well as profiting from the annualised effect of deliveries in '24 and indexation on the total portfolio.
Deployment of new constructions will be, as always, weighted against pre-let ratio's and market demand, though VGP has the availability of increasing its total rental income with minimum € 253 million up to at least € 666 million annualised rental income including the Joint Ventures. Thereof already exist pre-lets for € 20.8 million, or 135,000 sqm which already boost the development activity of '25. In the same time, VGP targets to expand its land bank substantially in existing and new territories.
VGP is also exploring the possibilities of new investments in both Battery Energy Storage Systems and Data Centers in all locations which it has currently in ownership or under control.
To strengthen its liquidity position, the Group increased its undrawn credit facilities with € 25 million in Q1 '25. In parallel, the Group targets a number of closings with existing Joint Venture's and endeavours to broaden its Joint Venture model with new and/or existing Joint Venture partners.
Finally, the Group proposes to the annual shareholders meeting to pay-out a dividend of € 90 million, an increase of 12% versus the ordinary dividend of '24.

1The statutory auditor has confirmed that his audit procedures, which have been substantially completed, have not revealed any material adjustments which would have to be made to the accounting information disclosed in this press release. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the European Union.
2 Revenue is composed of gross rental and renewable energy income, service charge income, property and facility management income and property development income
3 Property operating expenses include recharges to customers and are shown as net operating expenses
4 Includes realized gains on disposals of subsidiaries and joint ventures
The net rental income in VGP's own portfolio, increased to € 61.7 million in 2024. However, the underlying rental income has been generated from a substantially different portfolio versus previous period as several transactions took place with Joint Ventures in '23 and '24 in which rental income generating assets have been disposed and deconsolidated and delivered assets in the own portfolio started to become income generating instead.
During 2024, € 45.7 million of annualised rental income including the Joint Ventures at 100%, have become cash generative. Another € 62.6 million, of which € 52.4 million in the own portfolio, is still to be activated (upon delivery of assets). Thereof, € 39 million, or € 31.4 million in the own portfolio is expected to become cash generative in the next twelve months.

Net rental income, on a look through basis1 grew with 20.9% from € 159.1 million to € 192.4 million, knowing that at year-end € 214.7 million (versus € 194.3 million, or + 10.5%) on a proportional look through basis, has become cash generative.
1 Refer to 'supplementary notes', income statement proportionally consolidated
The net renewable energy income over 2024 amounted to € 6 million compared to € 3.5 million over FY2023. This was driven by an increase of 96% in the effective production sold in 2024 to 90 GWh.
The operational solar capacity increased significantly to 155.7 MWp, up 53% year-over-year which should equate to a marketable production potential of circa 130 GWh.
As of December 2024, a total of 39 projects representing 41.0 MWp are under construction. Including projects under construction the total solar power generation capacity will increase to 196.8 MWp spread over 147 roof-projects in 10 countries. As at the 31st of December 2024 this represents a total aggregate investment amount of € 121 million (incl. current commitments for projects under construction).
With regards to the pipeline, an additional 97 solar power projects are in contractual/design phase (including in 4 additional countries) which equates to an added power generation capacity of 90.9 MWp. The current total solar portfolio, including pipeline projects, totals 287.7 MWp.
The Joint Venture management fee income amounted to € 32.7 million, a 21% increase versus FY '23. The Joint Venture management fee income consists of two main components, on the one hand property and facility management income, which increased from € 22.5 million to € 27 million and on the other hand development management income, which increased with € 1.3 million to € 5.7 million.
During 2024, the net valuation gains on the property portfolio reached € 187.1 million compared to a net valuation gain of € 88 million for the period ended 31 December 2023.
The net valuation gain was mainly driven by: (i) € 94.2 million unrealised valuation gain on the own and disposal group held for sale portfolio, and (ii) € 92.9 million realised valuation gain, mainly on assets transferred as part of transactions with the Fifth Joint Venture (Deka), the Third Joint Venture (Ymir) and the first and second closing with the Sixth Joint Venture (Areim), as well as the disposal of the Development Joint Venture LPM.
The own property portfolio, excluding development land but including the buildings being constructed on behalf of the Joint Ventures, is valued by the valuation expert at 31 December 2024 based on a weighted average yield of 7.22 % (compared to 6.22% as at 31 December 2023) applied to the contractual rents increased by the estimated rental value on unlet space.
The real estate valuations were broadly stable during 2024. The (re)valuation of the own portfolio was based on the appraisal report of the property expert Io Partners, preferred partner of Jones Lang LaSalle.
The administrative expenses for the period increased to € 61.3 million compared to € 48.9 million for the period ended 31 December 2023.
The group's headcount of 380 FTE's increased with 12.5 FTE's compared to 2023. The main variance to the previous period relates to increased remuneration by € 6.8 million (mainly by provisions for the Long Term Incentive Plan), general admin costs by € 1.8 million, as well as increases in depreciation of € 2.7 million and lower capitalized costs of € 1.3 million.
VGP's share of the joint ventures' profit for the period came in at € 92.7 million versus a loss of € 10.7 million for the period ending 31 December 2023. The main drivers can be summarized as follows (at share):
As at December 2024, the Joint Ventures account for € 285.7 million of annualised committed leases representing 4.6 million sqm of lettable area compared to € 226.9 million of annualised committed leases representing 3.7 million sqm at the end of December 2023.

The (re)valuation of all Joint Ventures' portfolios was based on the appraisal report of the property expert Io partners, preferred partner of Jones Lang Lasalle.
Other expenses included a € 1.75 million contribution to the VGP Foundation.
Net financial result increased from a net expense of € 6 million to an income of € 2.4 million. The delta can be mainly explained by (i) lower interests of € 3.1 million following the repayment of € 375 million of bonds in '23 and € 75 million in '24, though partially off-set by increased interest expense on the new EIB Loan of € 135 million, (ii) an increase of financial income of 5.8 million (up to € 12.3 million) as a result of interest received on term deposits, as well as (iii) increased interest income on loans to joint ventures and associates in amount of € 10.4 million and (iv) a reduction of capitalized interests in amount of € 11.4 million.
At 31 December 2024 the average cost of debt amounts to 2.20%. The average term of the credit facilities amounts to 3.7 years.
The tax expense of € 32.6 million contains a deferred tax cost of € 21.7 million (versus € 9.5 million in '23) and a current tax cost of € 10.9 million (versus € 15.9 million in '23). This equates to an effective current tax rate of 8%1 , versus 17% in '23.

Investment properties relate to completed properties, projects under construction as well as land held for development. The disposal group held for sale assets relates to (i) the assets under construction and development land (at fair value) which are being / will be developed by VGP, on behalf of the First and Second Joint Venture and the Sixt Joint Venture, and (ii) VGP Park Riga, which is subject to a call option of its tenant.
As at 31 December 2024 the investment property portfolio, including those reported as group held for sale, consists of 48 completed buildings representing 1,373,000 sqm of lettable area with another 33 buildings under construction representing 736,000 sqm of lettable area.
Including assets reported as group held for sale, the total investment property accounts for € 879 million in completed assets, € 579 million assets under construction, and € 645 million land.
The Investment Property, including those reported as group held for sale but excluding development land, is valued at an average weighted yield of 7.22%.
Total capex on investment property including assets held for sale of € 568.2 million: € 405.1 million on assets, € 54.7 million on land acquisitions, € 10.8 m interests and capitalized rent free and € 97.6 million investments in assets held for sale.
Property, plant and equipment increased with € 14.9 million. This reflects a capex of € 19 million, which mainly relates to renewable energy assets (€ 13 million) and are accounted for at cost and depreciated. Completed installations amount to € 94.5 million, whereas € 14.1 million relates to renewable energy installations under construction.
As at 31 December 2024, the investments in the joint ventures and associates increased to € 1,301 million from € 1,037 million as at 31 December 2023.
The investments in joint ventures and associates as at the end of 2024 reflect the value of the participation in the Allianz Joint Ventures, the Deka Joint Venture, The Saga Joint Venture and the Development Joint Ventures, all of which are accounted for using the equity method.
The variance in '24 is mainly related to equity contributions of transactions with Joint Ventures in amount of € 199.1 million, equity repayments from the First Joint Venture (€ 11.5 million) and the Second Joint Venture (€ 3.3 million), an additional investment in the Development Joint Venture Belartza (€ 5.2 million), the disposal of the Development Joint Venture LPM (€ 18.7 million) as well as VGP's share in the result of the Joint Ventures in amount of € 92.7 million.
The non-current and current financial debt increased from € 1,997 million as at 31 December 2023 to € 2,057 million as at 31 December 2024.
The increase was mainly driven by credit facility of the European Investment Bank of € 150 million to support its renewable energy business unit. As per 5 February 2024, VGP has drawn € 135 million of

this facility at an interest rate of 4.15% on a ten year period, which was offset by the repayment of €75 million of its outstanding bonds.
The proportional on a look through basis LTV amounts to 48.3 % (versus 53.4% at year-end '23) and the gearing ratio amounts to 33.6% (versus 40.3% at year-end '23). The financial debts of the Group are well within its covenants.

The consolidated financial information reported in this press release have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) which have been adopted by the European Union. The consolidated financial information was approved for issue on 19 February 2025 by the Board of Directors.
The financial statements are prepared on a historic cost basis, with the exception of investment properties and investment property under construction as well as financial derivatives which are stated at fair value. All figures are in thousands of Euros (EUR '000).
Below is a list of new and amended standards and interpretations that become effective in 2024 for application in the European Union. In addition, the new and revised standards and interpretations which have been published but which are not yet applicable in 2024 in the EU are enclosed as well:
The initial recognition of the above new standards did not have a material impact on the financial position and performance of the Group.
Standards and interpretations published, but not yet applicable for the annual period beginning on 1 January 2024:
The chief operating decision maker is the person that allocates resources to and assesses the performance of the operating segments. The Group has determined that its chief operating decision-maker is the chief executive officer (CEO) of the Company. He allocates resources to and assesses the performance at business line and country level.
The segmentation for segment reporting within VGP is primarily by business line and secondly by geographical region.
For management purpose, the Group also presents financial information according to management breakdowns, based on these functional allocations of revenues and costs. These amounts are based on a number of assumptions and accordingly are not prepared in accordance with IFRS audited consolidated financial statements of VGP NV for the period ended 2024 and 2023. The Group reports three segments as follows:
The Group's investment or so-called rental business consists of operating profit generated by the completed and leased out projects of the Group's portfolio and the proportional share of the operating profit (excluding net valuation gains) of the completed and leased out projects of the Joint Ventures' portfolio and consolidates as well property and asset management revenue, which include asset management, property management and facility management income.
Revenues and expenses allocated to the rental business unit include 10% of the Group's property operating expenses; other income; other expenses, after deduction of expenses allocated to property development; and share in result of the joint ventures, excluding any revaluation result.
Associated operating, administration and other expenses include directly allocated expenses from the respective asset management, property management and facility management service companies.
The Group's property development business consists of the net development result on the Group's development activities. Previously these excluded valuation gains (losses) on investment properties outside certain exclusivity perimeters of Joint Ventures. As the Group's Joint Venture model has evolved in recent years, example given, with the addition of the Fifth and Sixth Joint Venture, whereby not necessarily exclusivity to the Joint Venture is granted, the Group has updated its segment report to present the EBITDA of the property development segment including all developments (including the comparable period). Once the investment property has been disposed into a Joint Venture, revaluation gains or losses are no longer recognized as EBITDA.
The property development segment includes 80% of the Group's administrative expenses.
The Group's Renewable Energy segment includes gross renewables income and its direct attributable operating expenses. The Renewables income is generated through sale of electricity, government grants and/or leasing activities. In addition, 10% of administration expenses are allocated to the Renewable Energy segment. The Renewable Energy segment leases roofs from other VGP entities. To the extent these are not eliminated in the consolidation perimeter, these have been added back as cost, in favor of a revenue recognition in the Investment segment.

Main variances with regards to the balance sheet of the Joint Ventures in '24 can be summarized as follows:

asset (building D) is expected to be delivered in Q4 '25. When completed, the VGP Park München will reflect 8 buildings for a total surface area of 323,000 sqm and a total annualised rental income of approximately € 34 million.
The Joint Ventures' property portfolio, excluding development land and buildings being constructed by VGP on behalf of the Joint Ventures, is valued at 31 December 2024 based on a weighted average yield of 5.05%1 (compared to 5.01% as at 31 December 2023). A 0.10% variation of this market rate would give rise to a variation of the Joint Venture portfolio value (at 100%) of € 111.6 million.
The (re)valuated assets of the Joint Ventures' portfolio was based on the appraisal report of the property expert Io Partners, preferred partner of Jones Lang LaSalle.
VGP provides certain services, including asset-, property- and development advisory and management, for the Joint Ventures and receives fees from the Joint Ventures for doing so. Those services are carried out on an arms-length basis and do not give VGP any control over the relevant Joint Ventures (nor any unilateral material decision-making rights). Significant transactions and decisions within the Joint Ventures require full Board and/or Shareholder approval, in accordance with the terms of the Joint Venture agreement.
1 The Development Joint Ventures only hold development land and hence has been excluded from the weighted average yield calculation.

In order to sustain its growth over the medium term, VGP entered into multiple joint ventures with Allianz (First, Second and third Joint Venture), Deka (the Fifth Joint Venture) and Saga (the Sixth Joint Venture) in respect of acquiring income generating assets developed by VGP. These Joint Ventures act as a take-out vehicle of the income generating assets, allowing VGP to partially recycle its initially invested capital when completed projects are acquired by the Joint Ventures. VGP is then able to re-

invest the proceeds in the continued expansion of its development pipeline, including the further expansion of its land bank, allowing VGP to concentrate on its core development activities.
The development pipeline which will be transferred as part of any future acquisition transaction between the Joint Venture and VGP is being developed at VGP's own risk and subsequently acquired and paid for by these joint ventures subject to pre-agreed completion and lease parameters. Consequently, these are reclassified as assets and liabilities held for sale on the balance sheet.
In addition, the tenant of VGP Park Riga has executed its call option right and is to date performing its due diligence. The asset has been reclassified as group held for sale and has been valued at the call option price. All other assets reported as group held for sale carry a fair value, as appraised by Io Partners.
