1 Board proposal subject to approval at the Shareholders' Meeting of 23 May 2024
Note: The financial data and indicators used in this press release are based on Nexity's operational reporting, with joint ventures proportionately consolidated. The definitions of the indicators used in this press release are presented at the end of the document.
"At the end of a year marked by an ongoing deterioration in the real estate market, with an historic slowdown in both residential and commercial private investment, Nexity has once again demonstrated its ability to meet its financial targets thanks to its commercial agility, the strength of its long-term relationships with public investors and the exemplary commitment shown by its staff, whom I'd like to thank in particular.
The sector in which we operate is going through a crisis that is unprecedented in terms of its intensity, duration and scope, affecting both supply and demand. Nexity will adapt to this new reality more quickly in 2024, by making adjustments that will enable it to sell supply designed during the previous cycle, scaling its organisation to match new market conditions with respect to volume, and switching to an operating model focused on local areas in order to meet the demand for our services as an urban operator even more effectively.
This means that we will recognise the costs of these transformations, including the implementation of a redundancy plan, in 2024, and will continue to refocus the strategic roadmap and deleverage the business. To do so, we will minimise risk as we ramp up urban regeneration activities with operational partners, and we willcontinue seeking out strategic and financial partnerships in services, particularly in the management and distribution businesses.
Having reinforced our financial structure, Nexity is in a position to convert all the growth opportunities offered by the emerging new real estate cycle, as evidenced by initial positive indicators, and to extend our leadership, as we have succeeded in doing after every previous market crisis."

In a highly challenging market, Nexity's business activity showed resilience: 14,602 reservations were booked, down 19% in a market that declined by 26%. The total value of these reservations was €2,964 million (down 24%). The latest FPI statement, dated 15 February, reported 94,828 reservations in the market, a record low for the past 10 years.
As expected, and in line with market data, retail sales declined sharply (down 41% compared with 2022), mainly due to lower solvency among individual clients arising from the substantial, lasting rise in interest rates and the drop in implied yields for individual investors. Sales to individual investors and homebuyers fell to an all-time low, accounting for 21% and 12% of total sales, respectively.
Bulk sales remained strong, holding steady year on year: Nexity continued to pursue its dynamic sales strategy, in place since 2022, earmarking retail sale reservations for bulk sales, through its long-term partnerships with private and public landlords.
Bulk sales accounted for 67% of total reservations at year-end 2023, up 13 percentage points from 2022, driven in particular by bulk sales of intermediate housing, which more than doubled year on year, peaking at 16%.
The difference between the change in reservations by volume and by value is mainly due to the change in the product mix.
Supply for sale at year-end 2023 was down 23% relative to year-end 2022, at 7,778 units, with take-up periods stable at around 7 months. These trends reflected the Group's increasingly selective approach to launching programmes (the average rate of pre-selling was nearly 75%2 on programmes launched in 2023) and demonstrated its ability to adapt its supply despite a slower pace of sales. Developments under construction accounted for around 46% of the total supply for sale (vs. 60% for the market as a whole) and the stock of unsold completed units remained marginal, at around one hundred.
| (in millions of euros) | 2022(1) | 2023 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | 3,385 | 2,942 | -13% |
| Operating profit | 280 | 140 | -50% |
| Margin (as % of revenue) | 8.3% | 4.8% | -350 bps |
(1) Reclassification of Villes & Projets (historically classified in the Other Activities division) in Residential Real Estate Development
Revenue declined by 13% in 2023 to €2,942 million, reflecting the slower pace of signings of notarial deeds of sale since the beginning of the year and fewer new programmes launched into the construction phase.
Operating profit was €140 million (down 50%), representing a margin of 4.8%, down 350 basis points. This change was mainly due to the decrease in revenue, the change in the customer mix with a higher proportion of bulk sales, higher construction costs affecting the budgets of certain programmes under construction, and the slowdown in business, which has affected the balance of overhead costs.
2 Including sales to individuals and institutional investors
The backlog stands at €5.0 billion, representing two years' revenue.
The Carrefour partnership announced in 2023, which is fully aligned with the Group's increased emphasis on urban regeneration, reached a key milestone at the end of November with the formation of the "Villes et Commerces" land banking joint venture. As a reminder, this partnership covers the upgrade of 76 Carrefour sites across France through urban mixed-use projects, including 12,000 homes, and will generate revenue at termination of over €2 billion over the next ten years (developments will be included in the backlog with effect from H2 2024).
In early October, the French government made an initial revision to the country's zoning map, reclassifying more than 150 municipalities as supply-constrained areas (A/Abis/B1), meaning they are now eligible for the "Pinel" scheme, intermediate rental housing (LLI) and the 2024 PTZ interest-free loan scheme, and in some cases raising rent ceilings, which in turn improves rental yields. This zoning extension will enable Nexity to recalibrate developments currently being set up in the municipalities concerned, and to sell its available supply more quickly. For reference, 81% of Nexity's current supply for sale is located in supply-constrained areas.
With the market at a cyclical low, marked by higher interest rates and changes in usage for commercial real estate (according to CBRE, investment in France was down 56% in 2023), as forecast, Nexity recorded a low volume of new orders in 2023 (€39 million).
In 2023, the Group delivered 12 developments totalling over 100,000 square metres, including the following iconic developments:
These developments bring total deliveries over the past five years to nearly 700,000 square metres, including almost 200,000 square metres of logistics facilities, warehouses and business parks and over 50,000 square metres of higher education facilities, reflecting continuing diversity in the new business written by the Group.
| (in millions of euros) | 2022 | 2023 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | 380 | 459 | +21% |
| Operating profit | 45 | 41 | -9% |
| Margin (as % of revenue) | 11.9% | 8.9% | -300 bps |
At year-end 2023, revenue totalled €459 million and operating profit was €41 million, driven, as in 2022, by the contribution of the green business park in La Garenne-Colombes, which is 75% completed.
15 developments in progress at year-end 2023, totalling more than 200,000 square metres and ~€350 million, including the following:
Green business park in La Garenne-Colombes: 95,000-square-metre project scheduled for delivery in Q2 and Q4 2024, contributing €250 million to secure 2024 revenue.
Carré Invalides (Paris): Renovation of the 15,400-square-metre former headquarters of the Greater Paris regional council
While the market for off-plan sales remained buoyant outside the Paris region, the Group continued to capitalise on its integrated expertise and positioning to step up its role supporting institutional clients with urban regeneration projects under delegated project ownership and CPI development contracts.
The backlog stood at €349 million at year-end 2023.
Services revenue was €872 million at year-end 2023, down very slightly and once again driven by Managed Real Estate (Serviced Properties):
| (in millions of euros) | 2022 | 2023 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Revenue | 938 | 872 | -7% |
| o/w: Property Management3 | 382 | 385 | +1% |
| o/w: Serviced Properties | 217 | 270 | +25% |
| o/w: Distribution | 340 | 217 | -36% |
| Operating profit | 92 | 73 | -21% |
| Margin (as % of revenue) | 9.8% | 8.3% | -150 bps |
Revenue from Property Management (Property Management for Individuals and Property Management for Companies) grew slightly, up 1% to €385 million, confirming the resilience of the condominium and rental management businesses, with a portfolio of nearly 825,000 units under management at year-end 2023 and significant contracts renewed or signed, an example being Nexity Property Management's successful bid to manage over 4,000 sites on behalf of the Orange group. Meanwhile, rental intermediation-related business lines (sales and lettings) were affected in 2023 by the rise in interest rates and very tight supply in the rental market.
The Serviced Properties business (serviced residences for students, coworking spaces) posted €270 million in revenue (up 25%), driven in particular by the strong growth momentum of the portfolio of coworking businesses (16 new sites and an increase of nearly 24,000 square metres under management), as well as occupancy rates, which remained high at end-December for both coworking spaces (96%4 ) and student residences (97%).
Lastly, as expected, revenue from Distribution activities (down 36%) reflected the downturn in the new home market. It should however be noted that reservation volumes decreased less than did the individual investor market, and that the market share for distribution activities grew by two points (totalling 10.3%).
Operating profit for the Services business totalled €73 million at year-end 2023, down 21%, mainly due to lower profitability in the Distribution business, reflecting the downturns in the new home and brokerage markets. Excluding Distribution, profit grew by 8%.
3 Indicators for Property Management for Individuals, scope being sold to Bridgepoint: 2023 revenue: €307m (€309m in 2022); 2023 operating profit: €27m (€27m in 2022)
4 Occupancy rate at mature sites (open for more than 12 months)
After announcing at end-October that it had initiated a process to seek out strategic and financial partnerships in its management and distribution businesses, Nexity announced on 21 December that it had entered into exclusive negotiations with a view to selling 100% of its Real Estate Services to Individuals activities to Bridgepoint, a European leader in alternative asset management, based on an enterprise value of €440 million. This transaction, expected to be finalised in the first half of the year, involves the launch of a long-term5 strategic partnership aimed at amplifying existing synergies with Nexity's businesses and securing their long-term future. The agencies will continue to assist with the pre-deliveries of our new buildings and provide condominium management services, we will offer dedicated rental management services to our individual investors, we will be the preferred developer for land banking and real estate projects (such as extensions to existing buildings through additional storeys), and we will have access to the client base to promote our range of services and solutions.
Due to the process underway for the sale of Real Estate Services to Individuals activities, which is expected to be finalised in the first half of the year, the Group is applying IFRS 5 (on assets held for sale), which requires the assets and liabilities of these activities to be presented separately from other continuing operations in the balance sheet. The income statement has not been restated.

Revenue in 2023 totalled €4,273 million, down 9% relative to 2022 (down 10% on a like-for-like basis6 ).
5 Six-year partnership renewable for an additional 4-year period
6 Excluding Angelotti, a company acquired in October 2022, and excluding activities in Poland and Portugal, disposed of in Q3 2023
In IFRS terms, revenue in 2023 totalled €3,964 million, down 9% relative to 2022. This figure excludes revenue from joint ventures, in accordance with IFRS 11, which requires these ventures – proportionately consolidated in the Group's operational reporting – to be accounted for using the equity method. It should be noted that revenue generated by the development businesses from VEFA off-plan sales and CPI development contracts is recognised using the percentage-of-completion method, i.e. on the basis of notarised sales and pro-rated to reflect the progress of all inventoriable costs.

(1) Reclassification of Villes & Projets (historically classified in the Other Activities division) in Residential Real Estate Development
Operating profit was €246 million, in line with guidance.
The net financial expense totalled €108 million. In particular, it comprised an increase of nearly €25 million in financing costs due to the rise in interest rates (with 51% of total debt made up of floating-rate debt at year-end 2023) and an €8 million increase in finance costs on lease liabilities driven by growth in the portfolio of managed real estate.
The tax expense (including the CVAE7 ) amounted to €51 million. The current effective tax rate (excluding the CVAE) was 35% (28% at year-end 2022). This rate, which was 9 points higher than our normative rate, mainly resulted from international losses that were not recoverable against French taxes, as well as the tax on the long-term disposal gain following the transfer of Studéa shares from Property Management for Individuals to Nexity SA.
The decrease in "Share of profit/(loss) from equity-accounted investments" primarily arose from the 18% stake in Ægide Domitys.
The Group share of net profit came to €19 million at 31 December 2023.
7 Cotisation sur la Valeur Ajoutée des Entreprises (French business value-added tax)
The Group's net debt before lease liabilities amounted to €776 million at year-end 2023, down €43 million compared to 2022, in line with its debt management policy announced at the beginning of the year.
This decrease notably reflects the following:
Debt at 31 December 2023 takes into account the impact of IFRS 5 application on Property Management for Individuals and thus includes a corresponding €67 million adjustment.
The Group was in compliance with all its financial ratios as at end-December 2023. The leverage ratio8 , calculated in accordance with contractual terms set out in financing agreements, stood at 2.5x, below the limit set out in the financial covenant (3.5x).
| (in millions of euros) | 31 Dec. 2022 | 31 Dec. 2023 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bond issues and other | 976 | 821 | (155) |
| Bank borrowings and commercial paper | 874 | 837 | (37) |
| Net cash and cash equivalents | (1,030) | (882) | +149 |
| Net financial debt before lease liabilities | 820 | 776 | -43 |
Overall, nearly 50% of the Group's gross debt is fixed-rate debt, limiting its exposure to rising interest rates. The Group has also put in place interest rate hedges, bringing the proportion of its gross debt that is either well hedged or at fixed rates to over 60%.
At 31 December 2023, the average maturity of the Group's debt remained above two years (2 years and 4 months), with an average cost of borrowing of 3.8%.
The Group's liquidity is solid, with total cash and cash equivalents of €882 million, and €630 million in confirmed undrawn credit lines.
As a reminder, in February 2023, the Group renewed its corporate credit line for a period of 5 years with an expanded pool of banks and for an increased amount (€800 million versus €500 million).
| (in millions of euros) | 31 Dec. 2022 | 31 Dec. 2023 | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Development | 1,322 | 1,316 | (6) |
| Residential Real Estate Development | 1,199 | 1,240 | +41 |
| Commercial Real Estate Development | 123 | 76 | (47) |
| Services | 36 | 62 | +27 |
| Other Activities | (23) | (39) | (15) |

| Corporate income tax | (11) | 7 | +17 |
| Working capital requirement (WCR) | 1,324 | 1,346 | +23 |
The Group's working capital requirement, after adjusting working capital in the Property Management for Individuals business in accordance with IFRS 5, stood at €1,346 million at year-end 2023, mainly due to the slowdown in business and thus in sales of inventory. Excluding tax and before the adjustment relating to IFRS 5, the working capital requirement declined €39 million.
It mainly consists of secure operating items (receivables due from individual clients guaranteed by banks, and receivables due from institutional clients relating to top-tier counterparties) and includes an almost 40% reduction in the land bank, which stood at €171 million at 31 December 2023.
In 2023, Nexity continued to roll out its ambitious strategy in support of resilient low-carbon cities, thus helping accelerate the sustainability transition in the real estate sector.
Lower carbon emissions – Regulatory requirements met or outperformed nearly two years ahead of time: The Group's aim is to achieve a 42% reduction in its carbon impact per square metre delivered between 2019 and 2030, 10% above the level required by France's RE2020 environmental regulations10 . On average in 2023, the Group's developments at building permit stage outperformed RE2020 requirements by 25% (representing the equivalent of 300,000 metric tons of CO2 avoided), thus meeting the new regulatory thresholds nearly two years ahead of time. This performance was notably made possible by the following:
Nexity, at the forefront of biodiversity footprint measurement: The Group measured its biodiversity footprint for the first time in 2022 and identified actions across the entire real estate value chain (wood supplies, support from sustainability experts, etc.), which were included in the Act4Nature commitments, renewed in 2023 for 2024- 2026.
A Climate and Biodiversity Report presenting the Group's business strategy and implementation approach will be made available ahead of the Shareholders' Meeting to be held in May 2024.
9 CDP: Carbon Disclosure Project
10 Regulations setting out demanding thresholds every three years for reducing carbon emissions across the life cycle of a real estate development (materials and energy).
Even before the persistent market downturn throughout 2023, Nexity had begun proactively concentrating on refocusing its roadmap, speeding up its execution, in line with the following announcements:
• At year-end 2023, Nexity entered into exclusive negotiations with a view to selling 100% of its Real Estate Services to Individuals activities to Bridgepoint, based on an enterprise value of €440 million. This transaction involves a strategic partnership aimed at amplifying existing synergies with Nexity's businesses and securing their long-term future.
Although interest rates now appear to have plateaued, the sector is likely to continue to face an unfavourable market environment in 2024.
11 Headcount at end of period
Rescaling the organisation to reflect the following:
In view of its adaptation and transformation, the Group has decided to initiate in the coming weeks an information and consultation process with employee representative bodies before implementing a redundancy plan (PSE in French). As such, the Board proposes that the dividend in respect of financial year 2023 be suspended.12
Through these transformation initiatives, Nexity is aiming for improved profitability from 2025, and as a result, maximum net debt of €500 million at year-end 2025.
The dividend policy will be conducted so as to be consistent with the context and reviewed annually in light of free cash flow.
Thanks to an agile, deleveraged, regionally focused multi-product organisation, at the end of this year of transformation Nexity will be in a position to seize the opportunities offered by the impending change in the real estate cycle.

Reclassification in cash flow statement, in accordance with IFRS 5 (15)
Absorption rate: Available market supply compared to reservations for the last 12 months, expressed in months, for the new homes business in France.
Business potential: The total volume of potential business at any given moment, expressed as a number of units and/or revenue excluding VAT, within future projects in Residential Real Estate Development (new homes, subdivisions and international) as well as Commercial Real Estate Development, validated by the Group's Committee, in all structuring phases, including the programmes of the Group's urban regeneration business (Villes & Projets); this business potential includes the Group's current supply for sale, its future supply (project phases not yet marketed on purchased land, and projects not yet launched associated with land secured through options).
Current operating profit: Includes all operating profit items with the exception of items resulting from unusual, abnormal and infrequently occurring transactions. In particular, impairment of goodwill is not included in current operating profit.
Development backlog (or order book): The Group's already secured future revenue, expressed in euros, for its real estate development businesses (Residential Real Estate Development and Commercial Real Estate Development). The backlog includes reservations for which notarial deeds of sale have not yet been signed and the portion of revenue remaining to be generated on units for which notarial deeds of sale have already been signed (portion remaining to be built).
EBITDA: Defined by Nexity as equal to current operating profit before depreciation, amortisation and impairment of non-current assets, net changes in provisions, share-based payment expenses and the transfer from inventory of borrowing costs directly attributable to property developments, plus dividends received from equity-accounted investees whose operations are an extension of the Group's business. Depreciation and amortisation includes right-of-use assets calculated in accordance with IFRS 16, together with the impact of neutralising internal margins on disposal of an asset by development companies, followed by take-up of a lease by a Group company
EBITDA after lease payments: EBITDA net of expenses recorded for lease payments that are restated to reflect the application of IFRS 16 Leases.
Free cash flow: Cash generated by operating activities after taking into account tax paid, financial expenses, repayment of lease liabilities, changes in WCR, dividends received from companies accounted for under the equity method and net investments in operating assets.
Joint ventures: Entities over whose activities the Group has joint control, established by contractual agreement. Most joint ventures are property developments (Residential Real Estate Development and Commercial Real Estate Development) undertaken with another developer (co-developments).
Land bank: The amount corresponding to acquired land development rights for projects in France carried out before obtaining a building permit or, in some cases, planning permissions.
Market share for new homes in France: Number of reservations made by Nexity (retail and bulk sales) divided by the number of reservations (retail and bulk sales) reported by the French Federation of Real Estate Developers (FPI).
Net profit before non-recurring items: Group share of net profit restated for non-recurring items such as change in fair value adjustments in respect of the ORNANE bond issue and items included in non-current operating profit (disposal of significant operations, any goodwill impairment losses, remeasurement of equity-accounted investments following the assumption of control).
Operational reporting: According to IFRS but with joint ventures proportionately consolidated. This presentation is used by management as it better reflects the economic reality of the Group's business activities.
Order intake – Commercial Real Estate Development: The total of selling prices excluding VAT as stated in definitive agreements for Commercial Real Estate Development projects, expressed in euros for a given period (notarial deeds of sale or development contracts).
Pipeline: Sum of backlog and business potential; may be expressed in months or years of revenue (as for backlog and business potential) based on revenue for the previous 12-month period.
Property Management: Management of residential properties (rentals, brokerage), common areas of apartment buildings (as managing agent on behalf of condominium owners), commercial properties, and services provided to users.
Reservations by value (or expected revenue from reservations) – Residential Real Estate: The net total of selling prices including VAT as stated in reservation agreements for development programmes, expressed in euros for a given period, after deducting all reservations cancelled during the period.
Revenue: Revenue generated by the development businesses from VEFA off-plan sales and CPI development contracts is recognised using the percentage-of-completion method, i.e. on the basis of notarised sales and pro-rated to reflect the progress of all inventoriable costs.
Serviced Properties: Operation of student residences and flexible workspaces.
