In addition, Qrf holds financial assets for MEUR 12.83 in the Century Center in Antwerp (Ardeno).

On September 30, 2025, the Company announced the acquisition of two real estate companies, namely Olphibel BV and Immo Feest- en Cultuurpaleis NV, as well as a capital increase in cash to finance these transactions. The capital increase was successfully completed on October 13, 2025, with 2,599,628 new shares issued at a total issue price of EUR 25,008,421.36.
The two new real estate companies were fully included in the consolidated key figures, while the capital increase was not completed until October 13, 2025. The issue of the new shares and the debt reduction resulting from the capital increase have a material impact on the reported key figures. By way of illustration, the Company provides below the theoretical key figures as they would appear if the issue of the new shares (+2,599,628) and the debt reduction (EUR -25,008,421.36) had already been taken into account:
Qrf reconfirms its dividend forecast of EUR 0.84 gross per share.

The Fair Value of the real estate portfolio amounted to MEUR 262.30 at September 30, 2025 (compared to MEUR 206.99 at December 31, 2024).
On September 30, the Company completed two major acquisitions based on a total gross property value of MEUR 46.75. Based on the real estate expert's estimate, including the initial valuation of the acquisitions, a total positive revaluation of MEUR 8.56 was recorded.
In addition to the real estate portfolio, Qrf still holds a financial participation (30%) in the joint venture company of the redeveloped Century Center in Antwerp. These interests are valued at MEUR 12.83 as of September 30, 2025.
The Annualized contractual rents amount to MEUR 16.11 (compared to MEUR 12.74 at December 31, 2024). The portfolio's Gross Rental Yield is 6.27% (compared to 6.54% at December 31, 2024). The Occupancy Rate10 is 97.56% (compared to 100% at December 31, 2024).
As previously communicated, Casa was declared bankrupt by the court on March 20, 2025. In the meantime, new tenants have been found for four of the five locations and have effectively moved in. The Company is reviewing its strategic options with regard to the remaining property on Meirbrug. As expected, the bankruptcy has a temporary negative impact on the EPRA result for 2025, mainly due to the associated switching costs (such as non-payment, vacancy, brokerage fees, and restoration costs).
The group's equity (IFRS), i.e. excluding minority interests, increased to MEUR 126.83 at September 30, 2025 (compared to MEUR 123.59 at December 31, 2024), as a result of the positive result.
The Debt ratio is 54.05% (compared to 43.60% as of December 31, 2024). After completion of the capital increase on October 13, 2025, the theoretical debt ratio will be 45.21%.
The Company has MEUR 165 of credit lines at September 30, 2025 with seven different financial institutions, with staggered maturity dates over the period 2025 to 2031, of which 1 credit line of MEUR 10 serves exclusively to cover the issued Commercial Paper. The undrawn portion of the available credit lines amounts to MEUR 24.25 at September 30, 2025.
The average financing cost (including the lender's margin) of Qrf is 2.96%. The hedge ratio of financial debt is 72.27% as of September 30, 2025. After completion of the capital increase, the theoretical coverage ratio will be 96.73%.
EPRA NTA per share is EUR 16.24 on September 30, 2025 (EUR 15.84 at December 31, 2024). IFRS NAV per share is EUR 16.26 at September 30, 2025 (EUR 15.85 at December 31, 2024). After the capital increase, the theoretical EPRA NTA per share and IFRS NAV per share will be EUR 14.58 and EUR 14.60, respectively.

The Company expects again to pay a gross dividend of EUR 0.84 per share to its shareholders for the 2025 financial year.
Coupon No. 13, representing the dividend entitlement for the period from January 1, 2025, to October 1, 2025, with an estimated gross value of EUR 0.63 per share, was detached on October 1, 2025, after the close of trading. Shareholders who held their shares at that time are entitled to the dividend attached to coupon no. 13. From October 2, 2025, all outstanding shares, both existing and newly issued, will carry coupon no. 14 and subsequent coupons. From that date, these shares will entitle their holders to the dividend for the remaining period of the 2025 financial year. The Company expects this dividend for coupon no. 14 to amount to EUR 0.21 per share. For the following financial years, the dividend forecast of EUR 0.84 per share for all outstanding shares will be maintained.
