REGULATED INFORMATION INSIDE INFORMATION Wednesday, 3 December 2025, 7:30 a.m.
Public limited liability company (société anonyme/naamloze vennootschap), Public Regulated Real Estate Company (Société Immobilière Réglementée (SIR) / Gereglementeerde Vastgoedvennootschap (GVV)) under Belgian Law Registered Office: 3 Horstebaan, 2900 Schoten Companies Registration No. 0456.378.070 (LPR Antwerp) (Hereinafter also referred to as the 'Company')
Schoten, Belgium – Wednesday 3 December 2025 – 7:30 a.m.
Care Property Invest completed a major strategic transaction yesterday (after trading hours) with the simultaneous acquisition of nine operational healthcare real estate projects in Belgium. The extensive portfolio includes one site in French-speaking Belgium (Soignies) and eight sites in Flanders, specifically in Heers, Lummen, Meldert, Diepenbeek, Heverlee, Halen, Lille and Hoeselt.
The total investment value of the transaction amounts to approximately €142.6 million. Together, the projects offer 830 residential care beds and 191 assisted living apartments. The acquisition represents a strategic and value-creating investment that enables the Company to put its portfolio back on a growth trajectory. This is achieved through an increase in portfolio size and revenue of at least 10 percent, in line with the Company's strategy focused on EPS growth.
The acquisition is carried out through a share deal, whereby Care Property Invest NV acquires 100% of the shares of Welfare Estates NV. As a result, the projects have been generating additional income for the Company since yesterday.
The nine newly acquired healthcare real estate sites are operated by Korian Belgium, part of the European care group Clariane SE. Korian is not only the largest operator within our portfolio but is also recognized as a reliable partner thanks to a healthy balance sheet, ample credit facilities, and strong liquidity.
For each of the projects, a long-term triple net lease agreement has been concluded with a term of twenty years, with annual indexation of the rent. This guarantees stable income and fully aligns with the Company's growth strategy. It is the intention, within this growth strategy, to gradually reduce Korian's relative share in the total portfolio over time.
Korian Belgium has been a key player in the Belgian elderly care sector since 2005. The company has built a strong reputation in residential care, supported by a range of services including nursing homes, assisted living units, day care centers, rehabilitation stays, and psychogeriatric facilities. In 2017, its service offering was further expanded to include home care and home nursing. Today, Korian Belgium manages more than 115 facilities, making it one of the leading players in the Belgian market. With the addition of these nine new locations, Korian now operates a total of 17 projects within Care Property Invest's Belgian and Dutch portfolio.


Care Property Invest is taking over approximately €40 million in loans through this acquisition, with a remaining term of 14 years and a weighted average cost of 2.97%. In addition, the acquisition of these nine projects significantly improves the overall quality of Care Property Invest's portfolio in several areas.
The transaction results in, among other things, a higher underlying average occupancy rate of our portfolio, a lower average age, and a reduction in the effort rate within the portfolio. Furthermore, the average energy consumption of the total portfolio decreases from 126 to 124.2 kWh/m². For the newly built sites Molenhof and Villa ter Vrugte, we apply a conservative assumption of an emission value of 100 kWh/m². Consequently, the average emission value at portfolio level may turn out even lower.
Moreover, this acquisition offsets the expected decline in income from the 'legacy portfolio' of long-term lease contracts with local authorities. This ensures Care Property Invest's income base for the next 12 years. This step is essential for achieving stable cash flows and an increase in earnings per share (EPS), fully in line with the Company's growth strategy.
In order to maintain a healthy debt ratio, the financing of this transaction will be realized through a combination of debt financing and a capital increase. For further information regarding the capital increase, please refer to the press release announcing the capital increase.

Patrick Couttenier, CEO of Care Property Invest
'This transaction significantly strengthens our position in the healthcare real estate market. It represents a major milestone in our growth strategy: in one move, our portfolio has expanded to 159 projects and its fair value has increased by more than 10%. We are proud to invest, together with our trusted partner Korian, in high-quality healthcare properties that deliver both social impact and sustainable financial returns.'
