1. Summary of the activities since 1 January 2021

Aedifica once again posted solid results in the first quarter of 2021 and the Group has further strengthened its position as a European market reference in listed healthcare real estate. The Group's international expansion continued unabated with numerous acquisitions and completions in recent months.

EUROPEAN EXPANSION

Aedifica's international ambitions were reaffirmed last quarter with the announcement of a first series of investments amounting to approx. €51 million in five care homes in Ireland, adding a seventh country to the Group's portfolio. Moreover, at the end of March Aedifica announced the substantial acquisition of 19 German care homes, which will take the portfolio in Germany beyond the €1 billion mark in the coming months. In addition, the Group has announced or carried out investments in 17 additional healthcare sites, bringing the total amount of investments announced or implemented by Aedifica in the first quarter to approx. €425 million in 41 sites across Europe. Furthermore, a total of nine projects from the development pipeline amounting to approx. €56 million were completed.

All the investments carried out in recent months have increased Aedifica's real estate portfolio to 511 sites with a capacity of approx. 28,200 residents and approx. 10,000 children. The fair value of investment properties increased by approx. €220 million (+6%) to €4,035 million (compared to €3,815 million at the beginning of the financial year). In addition, as of 31 March 2020, the Group has a total investment programme in pre-let development projects and acquisitions in progress of approx. €1,036 million (see Appendix 3). Considering this investment programme, Aedifica's total portfolio is expected to reach the €4.9 billion mark.

SOUND RESULTS

Aedifica focuses not only on investments and growth but also on managing its existing real estate assets. The result of this effort is reflected in an excellent rental income of €53.4 million at the end of the first quarter (€45.2 million a year earlier, an increase of approx. 18%). The EPRA Earnings* are slightly above budget and amount to €32.2 million, i.e. €0.97 per share. Aedifica's total profit amounts to €44.7 million.

FUTURE GROWTH

In the past quarter, Aedifica once again proved that it can deliver on its growth ambitions even in a volatile macroeconomic environment. The Group intends to continue along this path in the remaining months of 2021. Aedifica has already taken a big step forward in terms of international growth in 2021 thanks to its first investments in Ireland and the acquisition of a substantial portfolio of 19 German care homes. In addition, various new investment opportunities are being analysed. Even without taking into account new investments, the Group's future growth is assured by its extensive investment programme. Through the combination of new investments and existing agreements on the development, acquisition, renovation, expansion and redevelopment of numerous sites, Aedifica can build up a portfolio of highquality buildings that offer attractive net returns and further strengthen its position as a European market reference in listed healthcare real estate. The £180 million bond issue ('USPP') with institutional investors in the United States, the United Kingdom and Canada and €180 million in new long-term bank financing provide the Group with sufficient financial resources to pursue its ambitions.

2.4. Other events

- Aedifica wins M&A Award for acquisition of Hoivatilat

At the M&A Awards ceremony on 18 March 2021, Aedifica received the award for 'Best Large Cap Corporate Deal 2020' for the acquisition of Hoivatilat, the Finnish healthcare real estate investor that develops innovative housing and care concepts in Finland and Sweden. According to the panel of judges, the award is a recognition for the sustainable and intelligent expansion that the Group has achieved with this deal, the strategic importance of which should not be underestimated. They did not only see this deal as a landmark in the Group's expansion in the Nordics, they also noted that Hoivatilat forms a sound base to continue the Group's growth in the coming years, and that this has already been proven by the transactions that have been closed in the past year following the acquisition. Since the acquisition in early 2020, more than €180 million in new investments and projects have been carried out and announced in both countries while 24 pipeline projects have been completed, amounting to more than €90 million.

3. Covid-19 impact

The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on society in general could still be felt in the first few months of 2021. However, there is cause for optimism and hope in the unprecedented resilience demonstrated by the care sector since the start of the pandemic and now, above all, in the vaccination programmes that have been rolled out across Europe in the past few months. As at 31 March 2021, the pandemic therefore had no material impact on the Group's results.

Since the start of 2021, vaccination programmes have been rolled out in all countries in which Aedifica operates, with priority being given to care home residents and staff. Now that the vaccination of these priority groups is complete in most European countries, the expectation is that the public's perception of the risk posed by care homes will quickly alter for the better and that the care operators' occupancy levels (which fell by around 5 to 10% in some countries owing to excess mortality) will rise again in the near future.

Despite the pandemic, there has been no material negative impact on rent payments. This is partly due to the fact that the average occupancy level of the care home operators in all the countries in the portfolio has been maintained at a level enabling tenants to continue to fulfil their obligations. In addition, (local) authorities in various countries have approved aid programmes to cover any additional costs incurred by care home operators as a result of the Covid-19 measures.

The healthcare real estate investment market is (again) very dynamic. The sound market fundamentals of healthcare real estate (ageing of the population, market consolidation of care operators and public financing of care) remain intact and are even being strengthened by the current crisis. In addition, Aedifica's development projects are proceeding as expected since construction works continue normally.

Aedifica believes it is well placed, in terms of the strength of its balance sheet, its liquidity position, tenant base and the diversification of the portfolio, to absorb the short-term risks of the Covid-19 pandemic (namely the possible negative impact of the pandemic on the ability of care home operators to pay their rent) and the general volatility of the macro-economic climate resulting from the pandemic, but also to continue to follow and support the growth of the care sector in Europe and the resultant need for healthcare real estate.

12 May 2021 – before opening of markets Under embargo until 07:30 CET

4. Management of financial resources

During the first quarter of the 2021 financial year, Aedifica again reinforced its financial resources. The Group has secured new, long-term financing with due dates between 2024 and 2033 totalling €457 million:

  • a bond ('USPP') of £180 million was successfully issued through a private placement with US, UK and Canadian institutional investors. The bonds have maturities of 7 and 12 years with a coupon of 2.58% and 2.79% respectively;
  • a loan of €80 million and two credit lines of €55 million and €100 million were concluded respectively by Aedifica NV and Hoivatilat Oyj. The credit line of €55 million was used to refinance outstanding investment loans;
  • a private placement of €10 million with a term of seven years was concluded at a fixed interest rate of 1.329%.

These various transactions underline Aedifica's wish to further diversify its sources of financing. The available liquidity after deduction of the short-term debt security stood at €387 million on 31 March 2021.

Taking these elements into account, the maturity dates of Aedifica's financial debts as of 31 March 2021 are as follows:

As of 31 March 2021, Aedifica's consolidated debt-to-assets ratio amounted to 44.5%.

The hedge ratio expressed as a percentage of the financial debt with a fixed interest rate or a floating interest rate covered via financial derivatives stands at 79.1%.

5. Summary of the consolidated results as of 31 March 2021

5.1. Portfolio as of 31 March 2021

During the first quarter of the current financial year, Aedifica increased its portfolio of investment properties1 by approx. €220 million, from a fair value of €3,815 million to €4,035 million. This value of €4,035 million includes the marketable investment properties2 (€3,890 million) and the development projects (€145 million). The 6% increase in marketable investment properties comes mainly from net acquisitions (see section 2.1 above), completed development projects (see section 2.1 above) and changes in the fair value of marketable investment properties recognised in income (+19.5 million, or +0.5% over the first quarter). The changes in the fair value of marketable investment properties, as assessed by independent valuation experts, are broken down as follows:

  • Belgium: +€4.3 million (+0.1%);
  • Germany: +€7.9 million (+0.2%);
  • Netherlands: +€1.3 million (+0.0%);
  • United Kingdom: -€0.5 million (-0.0%);
  • Finland: +€6.3 million (+0.2%);
  • Sweden: +€0.2 million (+0.0%);
  • Ireland: +€0.2 million (+0.0%).

As of 31 March 2021, Aedifica's portfolio comprised 511 marketable investment properties (including assets classified as held for sale*), with a total capacity for approx. 28,200 residents and approx. 10,000 children and a total surface area of approx. 1,772,000 m2 .

The total portfolio has an overall occupancy rate3 of 100% as of 31 March 2021.

The weighted average unexpired lease term (WAULT) for all buildings in the Company's portfolio is 19 years.

3 Rate calculated according to the EPRA methodology.

1 Including assets classified as held for sale*.

2 Including assets classified as held for sale* and a right of use of €56 million related to plots of land held by Hoivatilat in 'leasehold' in accordance with IFRS 16.

12 May 2021 – before opening of markets Under embargo until 07:30 CET

5.2. Gross yield by country

The table below presents the portfolio's gross yield by country, compared to the fair value of the marketable investment properties.

In general, the gross yield based on the fair value amounts to 5.7%. In Finland and Sweden, Hoivatilat is developing its construction projects itself. The yield on cost of these projects amounts to approx. 6.5% on average and is higher than the yield on the fair value of properties after completion (as shown in the table below).

° Based on the fair value (re-assessed every three months). For healthcare real estate, the gross yield and the net yield are generally equal ('triple net' contracts), with the operating charges, the maintenance costs and the rents on empty spaces related to the operations generally being supported by the operator in Belgium, the United Kingdom, Ireland and (often) the Netherlands. In Germany, Finland and Sweden (and the Netherlands, in some cases), the net yield is generally lower than the gross yield, with certain charges remaining the responsibility of the owner, such as the repair and maintenance of the roof, structure and facades of the building ('double net' contacts).

The consolidated turnover (consolidated rental income) of the first quarter of the current financial year (1 January 2021 – 31 March 2021) amounted to €53.4 million, an increase of approx. 18% as compared to the turnover of €45.2 million on 31 March 2020.

Aedifica's consolidated rental income by country is presented in the table below.

° When calculating the variation on a like-for-like basis* in the United Kingdom, the buildings previously operated by the Four Seasons group were not taken into account (including these buildings, the variation on a like-for-like basis* is -2.8%).

°° Hoivatilat included in the consolidation scope of the Aedifica group on 10 January 2020.

The increase in consolidated rental income demonstrates the relevance of Aedifica's investment strategy and can be attributed to the large number of sites that Aedifica has added to its portfolio over the quarter through the completion of new acquisitions and the delivery of development projects from the pipeline.

The variation on a like-for-like basis in the UK is impacted by the fact that Aedifica is planning to redevelop two properties in the UK portfolio (which has an impact on the contribution of these properties in the rental income during the preparation and execution of the redevelopment), while a third building will be divested to optimise the portfolio (for this property a specific agreement has been made with the tenant to cover the period of the sales process). Excluding these three buildings, the variation on a likefor-like basis* for the United Kingdom amounts to +1.1%.

After deduction of the rental-related charges (€0.04 million), the net rental income amounts to €53.4 million (+21% compared to 31 March 2020).

The property result amounts to €52.6 million (31 March 2020: €44.1 million). This result, less other direct costs, leads to a property operating result of €49.9 million (31 March 2020: €42.4 million). This implies an operating margin* of 93.5% (31 March 2020: 96.2%).

After deducting overheads of €8.0 million (31 March 2020: €7.1 million) and taking into account other operating income and charges, the operating result before result on the portfolio has increased by 21% to reach €42.7 million (31 March 2020: €35.2 million). This implies an EBIT margin* of 80% (31 March 2020: 80%).

Taking into account the cash flows generated by hedging instruments, Aedifica's net interest charges amount to €6.8 million (31 March 2020: €6.3 million). The average effective interest rate* including commitment fees is 1.7%. Taking into account other income and charges of a financial nature, and excluding the net impact of the revaluation of hedging instruments to their fair value (non-cash movements accounted for in accordance with IAS 39 are not included in the EPRA Earnings* as explained below), the financial result excl. changes in fair value* represents a net charge of €8.0 million (31 March 2020: €6.8 million).

12 May 2021 – before opening of markets Under embargo until 07:30 CET

EPRA Earnings* (see Appendix 4.4.1) reached €32.2 million (31 March 2020: €25.0 million), or €0.97 per share (31 March 2020: €1.02 per share), based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding and taking into account the higher number of shares resulting from the 2020 capital increases. This result (absolute and per share) is slightly higher than budget.

The income statement also includes elements with no monetary impact (i.e., non-cash) that vary in line with external market parameters. These consist amongst others of changes in the fair value of investment properties (accounted for in accordance with IAS 40), changes in the fair value of financial assets and liabilities (accounted for in accordance with IAS 39), other results on portfolio, exit tax and deferred taxes (arising from IAS 40):

  • Over the first quarter, changes in the fair value of marketable investment properties5 taken into income amounted to +0.5%, or +€19.5 million (31 March 2020: -0.3% or -€7.5 million). A change in fair value of -€8.0 million was recorded on development projects (31 March 2020: -€0.1 million). The combined change in fair value for marketable investment properties and development projects represents an increase of €11.5 million for the period (31 March 2020: -€7.6 million).
  • In order to limit the interest rate risk stemming from the financing of its investments, Aedifica has put in place long-term hedges which allow for the conversion of variable-rate debt to fixedrate debt, or to capped-rate debt. Moreover, the financial instruments also reflect put options granted to certain minority shareholders which are the subject of appraisal at fair value. Changes in the fair value of financial assets and liabilities taken into the income statement as of 31 March 2021 represent an income of €4.9 million (31 March 2020: a charge of €3.2 million).

Taking into account the non-monetary elements described above, the profit (owners of the parent) amounts to €44.7 million (31 March 2020: €10.1 million). The basic earnings per share (as defined by IAS 33) is €1.35 (31 March 2020: €0.41).

5 That change corresponds to the sum of the positive and negative variations of the fair value of the buildings as of 31 December 2020 or the time of entry of new buildings in the portfolio, and the fair value estimated by the valuation experts as of 31 March 2021.

5.4. Net asset value per share as of 31 March 2021

The table below presents the evolution of the net asset value per share.

Excluding the non-monetary effects (i.e., non-cash) of the changes in fair value of hedging instruments6 and after accounting for the distribution of the 2019/2020 interim dividend in October 2020, the net asset value per share based on the fair value of investment properties amounted to €69.27 as of 31 March 2021 (31 December 2020: €67.17 per share).

6 The effect of the changes in fair value of hedging instruments of -€1.32 per share as of 31 March 2021 is the impact in equity of the fair value of hedging instruments, which is negative for €43.8 million, mainly booked in the liabilities on the balance sheet.

6. Outlook and dividend

Outlook for 2021
Estimated rental income €220 million
EPRA Earnings* €137 million
EPRA Earnings* per share €4,16
Gross dividend €3,30

The table above presents the guidance as communicated in the annual press release of 24 February 2021. The rental income for the 2021 financial year is estimated to reach €220 million, resulting in €137 million in EPRA Earnings*. Taking into account the higher number of shares resulting from the 2019/2020 capital increases, the Board of Directors anticipates EPRA Earnings* per share of €4.16 per share and a gross dividend of €3.30 per share, payable in May 2022. On 31 March 2021, the EPRA Earnings* were slightly above the quarterly budget.

This outlook is based on an assumption of €225 million of additional cashflow yielding investments on top of the development pipeline. At the end of March these additional investments have already been identified and announced.

10 In order to compare the results historically, the figures as of 31 March 2020 have been restated by derivation (due to the extension of the 2019/2020 financial year). Acquisitions are accounted for on the date of the effective transfer of control. These operations therefore present different impacts on the income statement, depending on whether they took place at the beginning, during, or at the end of the period.

1 Amounts in £ and SEK were converted into € based on the exchange rate of 31 March 2021 (1.17557 £/€ and 10.24039 SEK/€).

2 Although still under construction, the sites already generate limited rental incomes, in particular for the plots of land that have already been acquired. Their values are therefore no longer mentioned in the table above. This explains why the estimated investment values differ from those mentioned earlier.

4. Calculation details of the Alternative Performance Measures (APMs)

Aedifica has used Alternative Performance Measures in accordance with ESMA (European Securities and Market Authority) guidelines published on 5 October 2015 in its financial communication for many years. Some of these APMs are recommended by the European Public Real Estate Association (EPRA) and others have been defined by the industry or by Aedifica in order to provide readers with a better understanding of the Company's results and performance. The APMs used in this interim financial report are identified with an asterisk (*). Performance measures defined by IFRS standards or by Law are not considered to be APMs, neither are those that are not based on the consolidated income statement or the balance sheet. The definition of APMs, as applied to Aedifica's financial statements, may differ from those used in the financial statements of other companies.
