1.1 ALTAREA, AN UNRIVALLED PLATFORM OF SKILLS DEDICATED TO LOW-CARBON URBAN TRANSFORMATION

Altarea, a unique business model

The strength of Altarea's model sits fundamentally on the immense market of urban transformation driven by changes in usage, fundamental housing needs, urban design recast and low carbon evolution.

To address this huge market, the Group has developed an operating system that is unique in France, enabling it to act with the most comprehensive real estate offering, the expertise in highly specialised stills and recognised brands. Above all, Altarea can count on the commitment of its employees who embrace "Altarea's values" of high standards, innovation, and performance. The Company's business plan is based on a strong corporate commitment around the content of work, the sense of common social benefits as well as the value creation and sharing.

Urban transformation, the engine of growth

The urban transformation market, in which Altarea holds a leading position, is more than ever an immense market, for which the technical, administrative, financial, and environmental entry barriers are high and are becoming stricter (Net Zero Artificialization, Energy Performance Diagnosis, Tertiary Decree, RE 2020, Taxonomy, etc.).

The successive crises of recent years (health, environmental, social) have highlighted the need to thoroughly rethink the organisation and functioning of our cities. Many real estate infrastructures have become obsolete and have to be transformed to adapt to both the changes in use that now affect almost all real estate products, and to climate change (energy efficiency).

A strategic roadmap embedded in the new real estate cycle

The real estate crisis triggered by the rise in interest rates in 2022 marks the end of a cycle that lasted nearly 15 years. This crisis is particularly severe, and no sector of the real estate market is spared.

At the beginning of 2023, Altarea set itself a strategic roadmap that includes two years of adaptation to the change in the property cycle (2023 and 2024) and three years of ramp-up, both in its historical businesses and in new businesses (photovoltaics, data centres and real estate asset management).

At the end of the adaptation period to cycle change, Altarea anticipates a ramp-up of its FFO(1) , which should, within a four-year timeframe, exceed the high point reached in the previous cycle, but on a new basis.

Throughout the life of its roadmap, Altarea intends to rely on its solid financial structure, largely owing to the recurring nature of its retail REIT.

Progress of the roadmap & outlook

At the end of June 2024, the strategic roadmap is being implemented on schedule. After a year 2023 dedicated to reducing risks and to clearing the impact of the previous cycle, the first half of 2024 was committed to laying the foundations for the new cycle in both the historic businesses and the new activities.

In the second half of 2024, Altarea will pursue the same policy:

• building on the quality and performance of its Retail portfolio;

• maintaining a high level of operational and financial discipline in property development ;

• continuing to invest in new generation Residential offer and New businesses.

The Group confirms its FFO growth target for 2024, the quantum of which will depend on changes in the macroeconomic and political environment.

(1) Unless there is further deterioration in the macroeconomic, geopolitical, sanitory, or regulatory environment.

1.2 OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE

1.2.1 Retail

Retail, Altarea's historical business, accounts for the vast majority of the Group's capital employed, with assets under management of €5.2 billion at the end of June 2024, generating €323 million in recurring revenues(2) .

In recent years, shopping centres have undergone a profound transformation of their model, which has enabled them to emerge stronger from sanitary crisis and to return to an excellent operational performance.

1.2.1.1 A RELEVANT ASSET MANAGEMENT STRATÉGY

Altarea has pursued a strategy of selecting the most promising formats (large shopping centres, travel retail, retail parks, convenience stores) and currently manages a portfolio of 43 particularly high-performancing shopping centres.

At 100% (€ millions) 30/06/2024 31/12/2023
Regional shopping centres 3,072 59% 3,094 59%
Travel retail 532 10% 537 10%

2,241 43% 2,240 43%
o/w Group share 2,967 57% 2,992 57%

These assets are mainly held in partnerships with leading institutional investors. This strategy allows it to extend the value of its operational expertise on the number of assets under management, while optimising return on capital employed.

1.2.1.2 EXCELLENT OPERATING PERFORMANCE

Tenant's revenue(3) and footfall(4)

At end June 2024 (6 months) Chg. vs H1 2023
Revenue (incl. Tax) +5.7%
Footfall -0.3%

All retail types recorded excellent operational performance, notably with solid growth in tenant's revenue, due to both the attractiveness of the sites and the quality of the tenants commercial offering.

Rental activity remained dynamic in the first half of 2024, driven by demand from leading brands attracted by the quality of the Group's assets, including:

• at CAP3000 notable events such as the arrival of Pull&Bear, the transfer of Intersport, the extension of the successful Greek restaurant Yamas in the Corso wing or the expansion, at the beginning of June 2024, of Mango over 1,000 m² with an expanded offering for men/women/children;

• the contineous development of the leisure offering at Bercy Village with Ocean 12, an immersive family mini golf course;

• the deployment of the catering offer at Qwartz with the signatures of Starbucks and Brendy's. The center also welcomes the return to France of Wycon, a Beauté Santé brand;

• in retail parks, numerous renewals signed in personal equipment (Orchestra) or leisure, notably the King Jouets brand on several sites.

The first half of 2024 was also marked by the deployment of new ephemeral concepts such as the pop up stores imagined at CAP3000 (Lipault) or at Bercy Village with the Heinz or Sodastream event operations.

Net rental income at end-June 2024 (6 months) was up 7.7% (7.0% on a like-for-like basis).

The collection rate(5) stood at 97.0%, equivalent to presanitary crisis levels.

Value of assets under management (AuM)

Against a general drop in real estate values, retail assets remained virtually stable, with a slight fall in property exit rates(6) to 6.03% on average (+11 bps).

1.2.1.3 DEVELOPMENT

Paris-Austerlitz station

After the successful transformation of the Paris-Montparnasse station, Altarea started work on a major project to restructure the retail spaces at Paris-Austerlitz station in H1, which will eventually include nearly 25,000 m² of shops directly connected to the station. The marketing phase should begin in 2025.

Bobigny Cœur de Ville

On the site of the former Bobigny2 shopping centre built on a slab in 1974, Altarea is developing a new disctrict comprising 1,200 residential units, an office building, a cinema and around thirty shops and service.

The 14,000 m² commercial programme includes an mediumsized food court (2,500 m²), food shops, services (La Poste, hairstylist, optician, pharmacy, laundromat, etc.), a fitness room and three Social and Solidarity Economy (SSE) brands, as well as restaurants around a central landscaped square.

Work is nearing completion, with delivery scheduled for the 2nd half of 2024 and inauguration for early 2025.

Enox 2 (Gennevilliers)

Work for Enox 2 food park, an off-plan sale project developed for BNP Paribas REIM France is on-going. Entirely let to the Bertrand Franchise group, the 4 units (1,600 m²) are due to be delivered at the end of 2024 to Burger King, Au Bureau, Volfoni and Pitaya. The centre is aiming for BREEAM Very Good certification.

Installation of electric charging stations

As part of the partnership signed in early 2022 with Electra, the French specialist in ultra-fast recharging (50-300 kW), Altarea is continuing the deployment of recharging stations in car parks at its retail sites.

In the first half of 2024, the Limoges and Villeparisis sites were equipped, bringing to 7 the number of sites equipped out of the 19 planned. Brest Guipavas and L'Avenue83 are currently undergoing work.

Over the first half of the year, more than 17,000 recharging sessions were sold, saving 410 teqCO2.

1.2.2 Residential

Altarea is the second-largest residential developer in France(7) . The Group has a country-wide presence and has rolled out a comprehensive multi-product offering(8) based on brands with complementary positions to meet the structurally immense needs of the French market:

Cogedim is the Group's leading brand in terms of geographical coverage, product range depth and reputation. In 2024, for the second year running, Cogedim was ranked number one among the Top 200 customer relations by consulting firm The Human Consulting Group for Les Echos, all sectors combined;

Woodeum x Pitch Immo is the French specialist in lowcarbon real estate development due to its know-how on CLT (cross-laminated timber) timber frame technology but also to other low-carbon solutions that outperform current standards (RE2020/Level 2022);

Histoire & Patrimoine is the expert brand in real estate renovation and rehabilitation, offering a range of products in Historical Monuments, Malraux Law properties and Real Estate Tax schemes;

Nohée specialises in developing managed residences for active seniors. With 33 residences in operation at the end of June, including the last two inaugurated at the start of the year in Avignon and Villefranche-sur-Saône, Nohée aims to operate 50 residences by 2026, and 10 residences are currently under construction;

Altarea Solutions & Services is the service platform supporting the Group's customers and partners throughout their real estate project (sales promotion, financing, rental management, trustee services, etc.).

The brands have operational independance (customers, products) but are supported by the power of the Group under Altarea umbrella brand (strategy, commitments, finances, support functions).

1.2.2.1 HIGHLIGHTS OF THE FIRST HALF

In €m incl. VAT 974 1 277 -24%
In units 4,840 4,130 +17%

Land options signed during the first half of the year corresponded to projects in the market that are compatible with the Group's new commitment criteria, in particular those for the new generation offering, which already represents around 1,300 units for first-time buyers.

The "Nouveau Neuf", Altarea's response to the property purchasing power crisis

Individual buyers are the core target of Group's strategy. Altarea has developed a new generation offering aligned to the purchasing power of the French, to enable first-time buyers to become homeowners. This offer is adressed to clients (with incomes barely over the minimum wage) who are currently renting in the private or social sectors and who never imagined they would be able to become the owners of their residence.

The idea is to take the customer's purchasing power as a starting point and offer them a product tailored to their capacity. The design and all the cost components have been completely reworked to come up with a product that is affordable, low-carbon and profitable.

This new product is proposed along with a new and highly attractive range of financing options, with loans at subsidised rates, no deposit, no down payment, no notary fees and no interest. The buyer only starts paying when the keys are handed over, and the monthly payments offered are close to, or even equivalent to, the price of a rent.

This offering, known as "Le Nouveau neuf", represents a new approach to residential property development that is set to permeate the entire Group, with operational and commercial organisation, development and commitment criteria reflecting this new approach.

May 2024 : Market launch of the 1rst Le Nouveau Neuf programme (Rive Nature, Villeneuve-la-Garenne)

Located face to the Seine, this residence is built around a 7,600 m² urban forest with 110 tall trees and a friendly square with two shops at the foot of the building and a 30-bed crèche. With its 2,800 m² of green roof and its green corridor, this project is fully in line with an ecological and responsible approach.

This ambitious project is characterised by its commitment to sustainable development and the well-being of its residents. Comprising 10 RE 2020 buildings with NF Habitat HQE® certification, it includes 640 apartments ranging from studios to 5-room duplexes. The design of all these apartments has been optimised to provide pleasant, ergonomic living spaces at affordable prices.

The architecture, designed by international architects Valode & Pistre, combines modernity and aesthetics, helping to enhance this new urban development, which will form the new gateway to Villeneuve-la-Garenne.

Prices are particularly attractive, with a two-bedroom for €831 per month and a three-bedroom for €1,078 per month (no deposit, no pre-delivery costs).

Backlog

The backlog(13) at 30 June 2024 was €2.5 billion excl. tax, (vs €2.7 billion excl. tax at end-December 2023).

12 Signature of new land options. (13) Revenue (excl. tax) from notarised sales to be recognised on a percentageof-completion basis and individual and block new orders to be notarised.

1.2.3 Business property (BP)

Altarea manages Business Property projects with limited risk and in various manner due to its highly diversified skill set.

1.2.3.1 MULTIPLE AREAS OF EXPERTISE

In Offices, the Group operates nationwide(14) :

• as developer in off-plan sales, off-plan leases and PDCs, with a particularly strong position in the "turnkey" user market and DPM contracts(15) ;

• as developer/investor or co-investor for certain assets to be repositioned (before disposal);

• on a wide range of products: head offices, multi-occupant buildings, high-rise buildings, business and industrial premises, hotels, schools and campuses.

In Logistics, the Group operates:

• as a land and property developer and sometimes investor, to develop projects that meet increasingly demanding technical, regulatory and environmental challenges;

• both for the development of large platforms or hubs for distributors or e-commerce players, and in the urban logistics market for the last mile.

1.2.3.2 ACTIVITY OF THE HALF-YEAR

Offices/Grand Paris

The Group is concentrating on developing its services activity, with two PDC signed in Paris in the first half of the year for the Madeleine (21,000 m²) and Louis Le Grand (3,000 m²) projects. It also delivered 26 Champs-Elysées (14,000 m²) at the end of April, a completely refurbished complex combining offices and retail units.

One of the major events of the first half of the year was the obtention of the final building permit for the renovation of the former CNP headquarters above Paris-Montparnasse station. This 55,000 m² project, developed in a 50/50 partnership with Caisse des Dépôts, will undergo a complete restructuringl over the next few years.

The Group's other projects have made good operational progress, particularly in terms of commercial discussions.

Offices / Regional cities

In the regions, the Group delivered three office buildings in Toulouse this semester, totalling 12,000 m² (rue Laurencin, Hill Side in Jolimont and Urbanclay).

Two new projects were provisioned in Nice and Nantes, totalling 13,000 m².

Logistics

In large-scale logistics, the Group is involved in 835,000 m² projects at various stages of completion:

• 55,000 m² in Béziers (34) and Collégien (77) have already been sold off and are in the process of being completed;

• 285,000 m² are under construction at various stages, fully let to leading tenants and are monetisable by the Group(16) ;

• 495,000 m² is under development at various stages, including 156,000 m² for which building permits has been obtained and cleared.

In the first half of 2024, work progressed on several warehouses in Bollène(17) and La Boisse.

In urban logistics, the Group is developing a pipeline of small-scale projects, mainly in the Paris region, such as the project to renovate the DHL platform at Vitry-sur-Seine (7,600 m²), acquired in 2023.

The backlog at 30 June 2024 was worth €311 million excluding VAT (compared with €282 million excluding VAT at end-2023).

(14) Central Business District (CBD) of Paris, the Paris Region and major regional cities.

(15) PDC (property development contract) and DPM (delegated project management).

16 Puceul (44) for 38,000 m², Ecoparc Côtière in La Boisse (01) for 56,000 m² and Bollène (84) for 191000 m².

17 260,000 m² developed in 5 phases aiming for BREEAM certification.

1.2.4 New businesses

As part of its strategic roadmap, Altarea has decided to invest in new activities: photovoltaics, data centres and property asset management.

These new markets are driven by immense needs, with high barriers to entry linked to the mastery of complex know-how.

For each of these new activities, Altarea's strategy is to control the operational value chain (investing in skills) while systematically adopting an optimised capital model.

1.2.4.1 PHOTOVOLTAICS

Decarbonisation of the French Economy should significantly increase demand for photovoltaic. This demand should be around 100 peak gigawatts (GWp(18) ) by 2050(19) , which means doubling the current rate of new generation development to 7 GWp annually.

Altarea believes it can take a significant market share in a 'developer/asset manager/operator' model, with a full range of photovoltaic infrastructure adapted to sites in operation, under development or being refurbished, for the Group's own property projects or those of major landowners:

• car park shading systems (including on its portfolio of managed shopping centres) ;

• photovoltaic roofs on its property projects (particularly logistics warehouses);

• ground-mounted solar power plants on brownfield sites (quarries, wasteland, landfill sites, etc.);

• agrivoltaics as a complement to agricultural activity, on the ground or integrated into buildings (barns, sheds, greenhouses, etc.).

Altarea has set up a dedicated team operating under the Altarea EnR brand, enabling it to master the entire operational value chain:

• studies, feasibility, design, land management;

• administrative authorisations (construction, connection) and financing;

  • marketing of the energy produced;
  • installation and commissioning;
  • operation, monitoring, maintenance and recycling.

The Group's teams are working on a pipeline of projects at various stages of completion, mainly in France but also in Italy: more than 1,000 MWp are under study, including more than 400 MWp of controlled projects at 30 June.

Infrastructure integrated into the Group's property projects

Altarea now systematically integrates photovoltaic power stations into its property developments wherever possible.

Photovoltaic shading systems are currently being deployed at our retail properties. In particular, the first two projects, each with a capacity of 500 kWpat the La Vigie retail park near Strasbourg and the Nîmes Family Village. Today, Altarea has obtained authorisations for the deployment of around 20 MWp at ten sites.

In the logistics sector, the Bollène platform will also be equipped with a rooftop photovoltaic plants with a total capacity of around 20 MWp.

All in all, Altarea is in control of several dozen megawattpeak units linked to its property projects, providing an interesting complement both for the Group (creation of additional value) and for users (comfort, self-consumption, environmental responsability).

Man-made sites and agrivoltaics

The bulk of the Group's pipeline concerns ground-mounted power plants on man-made sites or accompanying agricultural activities (agrivoltaics).

At the beginning of 2024, an initial partnership agreement was signed with Terrena, a major agricultural cooperative based in the west of France and comprising almost 19,000 farms. This partnership, which will initially focus on sheep farmers before opening up to other types of production (cattle, poultry, wine production, etc), ultimately represents the completion of several dozen projects from 2026.

Altarea has expertise in several hundred megawatt-peak projects of all sizes at various stages of development.

Altarea also supports major property owners (retail, industrial, hospitals, logistics) in third-party investment in connection with their CSR policies and the necessary adaptations to regulations.

Acquisition of Prejeance Industrial

At the beginning of July 2024, Altarea acquired French company Prejeance Industrial from Spanish group Repsol. Prejeance Industrial specialises in developing small and medium-sized rooftop photovoltaic projects (between 100 and 500 kWp), mainly on agricultural sheds. Its experienced team (18 employees) is involved at every stage in the life of solar power plant projects: development, construction, asset management, financing/refinancing. These facilities offer genuine renewable energy solutions, while providing farmers with additional income and farm equipment at no extra cost to the farmer.

At the end of June 2024, the company owned and operated a portfolio with a total installed capacity of 42 MWp, located entirely in France, and was developing a pipeline of controlled projects totalling almost 400 MWp, including 41 MWp currently under construction.

The investment amounts to around €140 million (€25 million in goodwill and €115 million in solar power plants in operation, under construction and being

assembled). Prejeance Industrial will be consolidated in the Group's accounts from the 2nd half of 2024.

Through this transaction, Altarea is completing the development of photovoltaic installations that will be implemented from 2023 with the creation of Altarea EnR, and is increasing its capacity to develop low-carbon energy.

1.2.4.2 DATA CENTERS

Demand for data centers is growing strongly in France, driven by the digitisation of the economy, the rise of artificial intelligence and the desire of many players to relocate their data storage within the country. The current installed base suffers particularly from a structural undersizing that is particularly acute for eco-responsible data centres (selfgeneration and energy recovery, connection to urban heating networks, etc.).

Altarea's ambition is to develop two types of product: medium-sized colocation data centres and single-user hyperscale data centres.

Altarea can draw on its internal network, which covers the whole of France, to identify the most suitable property opportunities for this activity.

Eco-responsible colocation data centres

Local data centres are designed for corporate customers (private or public), providing connectivity, high performance, high security and high availability.

The Group intends to develop eco-responsible data centres with heat recovery and reinjection into urban heating and cooling networks. Altarea has set up a team operating under the brand name NDC (Nation Data Center) French hosting company promoting responsible digital practices and working on around fifteen potential sites in the main French cities (Paris, Lyon, Marseille, Toulouse and Nantes).

In the first half of 2024, the Group continued work on its first two data centres, launched in 2023:

• 6,500 m² at Val-de-Reuil near Rouen, with assets adapted to the needs arising from the emergence of AI;

• 3,000 m² at Noyal-sur-Vilaine near Rennes, with a target capacity of 3 MW, scheduled to open in early 2025.

The aim is to develop and operate a network of co-located data centres using a 'developer - asset manager' financial model.

Hyperscale data centres

Depending on the opportunities and specific situations, particularly in relation to the development of Artificial Intelligence, the Group could be led to develop hyperscale storage or computing data centres in partnership with major players in the digital industry, based on a 'developer/business provider' model, in a context where this type of product is both rare and highly complex from an administrative point of view.

1.2.4.3 ASSET MANAGEMENT

Altarea Investment Managers: first acquisitions and SRI label for the SCPI Alta convictions

Altarea Investment Managers, which was accredited by the Autorité des Marchés Financiers in 2023, now has a full management and investment team. Its aim is to gradually extend its distribution agreements to the general public, particularly through external networks and wealth management advisers (WMA), and to develop a comprehensive range of property investment vehicles.

The Alta Convictions SCPI, its first retail fund launched at the end of 2023, sits on the theme of the 'new property cycle', with no inventory or pre-crisis financing. Fund collection is ramping up, as do investments, with the aim of diversifying both sectorally and geographically. Following several acquisitions in the retail sector (Paris, Annecy), the latest signature in July 2024 marks the diversification of the portfolio towards business premises (Orléans). In June, the SCPI was awarded the SRI label, underlining its commitment to responsible and sustainable management.

ATREC: real estate debt platform in partnership with Tikehau Capital

In 2023, Altarea has launched of a real estate debt platform in partnership with Tikehau Capital through a first fund, called ATREC (Altarea Tikehau Real Estate Credit), is targeting €1 billion in capital, including a commitment of €200 million from its sponsors (€100 million each) with a view to welcoming third-party partners.

This platform capitalises on Tikehau Capital and Altarea's complementary expertise in private debt and real estate assets, and will provide investors with privileged access to the combined pipeline of the two groups and their respective networks to seize the most attractive investment opportunities.

The fund will offer a huge range of flexible solutions, primarily targeting the financing of assets (offices, retail, industrial assets, residential, logistics and hotels) or traditional real estate companies through junior, mezzanine or single-tranche debt instruments. A first deal was closed by the end of 2023 and a significant pipeline of opportunities is currently under review, confirming the relevance of this strategy.

1.3 TAXONOMY: NEW STANDARD FOR ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORMANCE REPORTING

The Taxonomy Regulation is a classification system for economic sectors to identify environmentally sustainable activities. It defines uniform criteria for each sector in the EU to assess their contribution to the six environmental objectives defined by the European Commission.

Non-financial companies have to publish indicators taken directly from their accounts (revenue, Capex and Opex) attributing for each the proportion eligible under the taxonomy (eligibility rate) as well as the proportion that meets the European environmental criteria (alignment rate) and social criteria (minimum social guarantees).

From 2024, financial companies have to publish the share of their investments that finance sustainable economic activities aligned with the taxonomy (Green Asset Ratio or GAR). Financial institutions with a high GAR should eventually benefit from a more favourable framework for their activities, as the goal pursued by the European Union is to drive funding towards the ecological transition.

1.3.1 A key indicator for Altarea

Altarea is a pioneer in measuring environmental performance. The Group was one of the first French real estate companies to include a predominantly taxonomyaligned revenue target into its strategic roadmap(20) . Similarly, since 2023, taxonomy alignment objectives have been integrated into employee remuneration and management compensation(21) .

Significant resources have been deployed to deliver digitised collection, control and standardised referencing of more than 5,000 documents to justify the alignment of the programmes concerned and create a reliable audit trail.

Thus, starting from the 2023 financial year, the methodology for calculating taxonomy alignment and its result has been subject of a report issued by E&Y(22) , the Group's auditors, one year ahead of the regulatory requirement.

Published quarterly according to the same schedule as regulated information, revenue alignment has become a key performance indicator for the Group. Altarea considers it a decisive asset for access to financial resources on favorable terms in the current context (real estate crisis and credit scarcity). For instance, after signing in July 2023 the first corporate bank loan integrating a revenue alignment clause with the Taxonomy, the Group has introduced this clause into all its corporate loans.

1.3.2 Taxonomy results

97.6% of consolidated revenue eligible

In the first half of 2024, 97.6% of Altarea's consolidated revenue23 was eligible under the European taxonomy for activities related to "Construction of new buildings" (Property Development), "Renovation of existing buildings," and "Acquisition and ownership of buildings" (mainly Retail REIT).

59.6% of consolidated revenue aligned

The alignment rate(24) reached 59.6% of consolidated revenue in the first half of 2024, showing consistent progress (44.0% for the 2022 financial year, 48.1% for 2023, and 55.6% in Q1 2024).

(21) This was achieved notably through the Group Profit-Sharing Agreement and in the variable remuneration criteria for management (Say on Pay). (22 )The 2023 Taxonomy Report (limited insurance) is available on altarea.com, under the Finance/Publications section, and the detailed methodology is available in the DPEF chapter of the 2023 Reference Document.

(23) Out of total revenue of €1,197.3m as of June 30, 2024, €28.2m (2.4%) were not eligible under the taxonomy (such as activities of property management, Cogedim Résidences Services, Altarea Solutions and Services). (24) The calculation of the alignment rate for H1 2024 does not take into account the 2nd paragraph of sub-criterion f of DNSH 5a 'products hazardous to health', as there is no consensus on how this sub-criterion should be applied.

1.4 FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

1.4.1 2024 half-yeart results

At 30 June 2024, consolidated sales totalled €1,197.3m, down 4.2% compared with the first half of 2023, mainly due to the decline in property development, both Residential (-4.3%) and Business Property (-21.9%). The contribution from Retail is increasing with a sharp rise in revenue (+9.7%).

Operating profit rose by 31.6% to €121.6m. It includes :

• 106.0m in Retail (up 13.1% on H1 2023), with net rental income up 7.7% and good level of fees;

• 23.8m in Residential (vs. €5.5m in H1 2023), representing 2.5% of sales. These results come from transactions from the previous cycle, with the contribution from new generation transactions only expected from the end of the year;

• 7.5m in Business property, or 8.3% of sales. This contribution is exclusively related to Office (services in Ile-de-France and development in the Regions);

• overhead costs associated with the development of New businesses are fully expensed.

The cost of net debt fell sharply in the first half. It took advantage of substantial income from cash investments and of the positive impact of the Group's interest rate hedging position.

Overall, net recurring result (FFO)(25) , Group share reached €57.9m (vs. €21.7m in H1 2023). Consolidated net profit (Group share) came to €26.8m at end-June (vs. €-17.8m in H1 2023).

1.4.2.3 CALCULATION PRINCIPLES

Asset valuation

Investment properties

Property assets are represented at their appraised value in the Group's IFRS statements (Investment properties).

Retail assets are valued by multiple appraisers. The breakdown of the valuation of the assets by experts is detailed below:

Appraiser Portfolio % of value, incl.
transfer duties
Jones Lang LaSalle France 31%
Cushman & Wakefield France & International 34%
CBRE France & International 33%
Others France & International 2%

The appraisers use two methods:

• discounted cash flow (DCF method), including exit value at the end of the period;

• capitalisation of net rental income, based on a yield rate that takes into account the site's characteristics and rental income (including variable rent and market rent of vacant premises, adjusted for all charges borne by the owner).

These valuations are conducted in line with the criteria set out in the Red Book – Appraisal and Valuation Standards, published by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors. The surveyors' assignments were all carried out in accordance with the recommendations of the COB/AMF Barthès de Ruyter Report and fully comply with the instructions of the Appraisal Charter of Real Estate Valuation (Charte de l'Expertise en Évaluation Immobilière) updated in 2017. Experts are paid at lump-sum fee based on the size and complexity of the appraised properties. Fee is therefore totally independent of the results of the appraisal.

Other assets

The unrealised capital gains on other assets consist of:

• the Residential and Business Property Development divisions (Cogedim, Woodeum x Pitch Immo, Histoire & Patrimoine);

• the Retail Asset Management (Altarea France) and Business Property (Altarea Entreprise Management) divisions.

These assets are appraised once a year by external appraisers on annual closing: Retail Asset Management (Altarea France), the Property Development division (Residential and Business property) and the Business Property Asset management division are valued by appraisers Accuracy.

The method used by Accuracy is the discounted cash flow method (DCF) in conjunction with a terminal value based on normalised cash flow. Accuracy provides a range of values calculated using different scenarios. In addition to its DCF valuation, Accuracy also provides a valuation based on listed peer group comparable.

Tax

Because of its SIIC status, most of Altarea's assets are not subject to capital gains tax, with the exception of a limited number of assets which are not SIIC-eligible due to their ownership structure, and of assets owned outside France. For these assets, capital gains taxes on disposals are deducted directly from the consolidated financial statements at the standard tax rate in the host country, based on the difference between the market value and taxes value of the property assets.

Altarea took into account the ownership structure of non-SIIC assets to determine Going Concern NAV after tax, since the tax considered in Going Concern NAV reflects the tax that would effectively be paid if the shares of the company were sold or if the assets were sold building by building.

Transfer taxes

In the IFRS consolidated financial statements, investment properties are recognised at fair value excluding transfer taxes. To calculate Going Concern NAV, however, transfer duties were added back in the same amount. In Altarea's NNNAV, duties are deducted either based on a transfer of shares or on a building by building basis depending on the legal structure that holds the asset.

General partners' share

The share of general partners represents the maximum dilution provided for under the Group's Articles of Association in the event of liquidation of the limited partnership (where the general partner would be granted 120,000 shares).

1.4.3 Financial resources

1.4.3.1 MAJOR EVENTS

During the first half, the Group finalised the signature of several bank loans that had been renegotiated in 2023:

• corporate loans of €476 million maturing in 2029, including a clause aligning them with the European Taxonomy(27) ;

• a €90 million, 7-year mortgage(28) on the Sant Cugat shopping centre in Spain.

On 5 July, the Group strengthened its consolidated shareholders' equity by €92.0 million, of which :

• €91.3 million due to the partial payment of the dividend in shares, resulting in the creation of 1,080,657 new shares;

• €0.7 million from a capital increase reserved for the employees' FCPE, resulting in the creation of 8,930 new shares.

1.4.3.2 AVAILABLE CASH

At 30 June 2024, Altarea had available cash of €2,286 million (€2,410 million at 31 December 2023).

Available (€ millions) Cash Unused credit

The unused credit lines at corporate level correspond to RCF lines amounting to €1,296m, none of which were drawn down at 30 June 2024.

On 5 July, available liquidity was used to redeem €255 million of bonds.

Short and medium-term financing

The Group has two NEU CP programmes(29) (maturity less than or equal to one year) and two NEU MTN(30) programmes (maturity greater than one year) for Altarea and Altareit. At 30 June 2024, the outstanding amount of these programmes was nil.

1.4.3.3 NET DEBT(31)

Change in net debt in the first half of 2024

Net debt stands at €1,849 million, compared with €1,647 million at the end of 2023.

Credit ratios

At 30 June 2024, the Net Debt to EBITDA(34) ratio stood at 6.7x, compared with 6.6x at 31 December 2023.

The Net Debt/Net Debt + Equity ratio was 37.6% (compared to 33.8% at 31 December 2023).

Neither of these two ratios constitutes a bank covenant for the Group.

The only two banking covenants included in all credit documentation are LTV and ICR.

Covenant 30/06/2024 31/12/2023 Delta
LTV (a) ≤ 60% 31.3% 28.7% +2.6 pt
ICR (b) ≥ 2.0 x 24.2x 7.5x +16.7x

(a) LTV (Loan to Value) = Net bond and bank debt/Restated value of assets including transfer duties.

(b) ICR (Interest Coverage Ratio) = Operating income /Net borrowing costs (column "Funds from operations").

At 30 June 2024, the financial position of the Group largely satisfied all of the covenants of its various credit contracts.

1.4.3.5 DEBT RATING

On 24 May 2024, S&P Global reiterated Altarea's BBBinvestment grade rating, but lowered its outlook from "stable" to "negative", mainly due to the market environment. The linked rating of its development subsidiary Altareit was also confirmed.

NOTE 2 ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES AND METHODS

2.1 The Company's accounting framework and presentation of the financial statements

2.1.1 Accounting standards

The Altarea Group's consolidated half-yearly financial statements to 30 June 2024 were prepared in compliance with IAS 34 "Interim financial reporting". The condensed financial statements do not include all of the information required by the IFRS guidelines for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Altarea Group's consolidated financial statements for the financial year ended 31 December 2023.

The accounting principles used in the preparation of the consolidated half-yearly financial statements are compliant with the IASB's (International Accounting Standards Board) IFRS standards and interpretations as adopted by the European Union as at 30 June 2024 and available on the website of the European Commission.

Accounting standards, interpretations and amendments applicable as from the financial year beginning on 1 January 2024:

  • Amendment to IAS 1 Classification of liabilities as current or non-current. Non-current liabilities with covenants ("covenants");
  • Amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7 Supplier finance arrangements;
  • Amendments to IFRS 16 Lease liability in a sale and leaseback.

These amendments have no significant impact for the Group.

• Amendment to IAS 12 – International Tax Reform – Pillar 2 Model Rules.

The Altarea Group falls within the scope of application of the new GloBE rules and the global minimum tax of 15% (Pillar 2) transposed, via a European Union directive (2022/2523) of 14 December 2022, into French law in the French General Tax Code by Article 33 of the Finance Act for 2024. These new rules came into force on 1 January 2024.

However, uncertainties remain as to its application methods, which are dealt with through the regular publication of administrative instructions by the OECD. These are intended to be transposed into domestic law by way of an order, as the instructions of July 2023 and December 2023 are not currently covered by the Finance Act for 2024.

Transitional simplification measures have been introduced for the 2024 to 2026 financial years. They make it possible to gradually comply with GloBE obligations, by authorising not to carry out all of the calculations leading to the determination of the GloBE tax from the outset, in countries where the Group's presence is not significant or which have high taxation.

The Group has applied the amendment to IAS 12 providing for a mandatory temporary exception to the recognition of deferred taxes associated with the additional tax resulting from the rules of Pillar 2.

As of 30 June 2024, the Group has not identified any impact to be recognised relating to the entry into force of the Pillar 2 system.

Accounting standards and interpretations adopted early at 30 June 2024, whose application is mandatory for financial years starting on or after 1 July 2024:

None.

Published accounting standards and interpretations whose application was mandatory after 30 June 2024:

None.

Other essential standards and interpretations, published by the IASB, approved in 2024 or not yet approved by the European Union:

• Amendments to IAS 21 – Effects of changes in foreign exchange rates;

In the absence of foreign currency transactions within the Group, this amendment will have no impact on the Group.

• Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 – Classification and measurement of financial instruments;

• IFRS 18 – Presentation and disclosure in financial statements.

These amendments are currently being analysed.

2.1.2 Other principles for presenting the financial statements

Altarea presents its financial statements and accompanying notes in millions of euros, to one decimal point.

Transactions eliminated in the consolidated financial statements

Balance sheet balances and income and expenses arising from intragroup transactions are eliminated when the consolidated financial statements are prepared.

Balance sheet classification

In accordance with IAS 1, the Company presents its assets and liabilities by distinguishing between current and noncurrent items.

Assets which must be realised, consumed or disposed of within the scope of the normal operating cycle or within 12 months following closure, are classed as "current assets", as well as the assets held with a view to disposal and cash or cash equivalents. All other assets are classified as "noncurrent assets".

Liabilities which have to be paid within the scope of the normal operating cycle or within 12 months following closure are classified as "current liabilities", as well as the share of provisions arising from the normal operating cycle of the activity concerned due in less than one year.

Deferred taxes are always shown as non-current assets or liabilities.

2.2 Main estimations and judgements

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires the use of estimates and assumptions by the Group's management to determine the value of certain assets and liabilities, and of certain income and expenses, as well as concerning the information given in the notes to the financial statements.

Management reviews its estimates and assumptions on a regular basis using its past experience and various other factors deemed reasonable in the circumstances.

The actual results may differ significantly from these estimates depending on changes in the various assumptions and performance conditions.

The accounting estimates made by the Group were made in the context of the real estate crisis. This crisis triggered by the rise in interest rates marks the end of a cycle that lasted nearly 15 years.

The main estimates made by the Group concerned the following measurements:

• measurement of investment properties (see Notes 2.3.5 "Investment properties" and 7.1 "Investment properties").

The methodologies used by the appraisers are identical to those used for the previous financial year and take into account changes in market data, in a complex economic environment marked by persistent inflation, and rising interest rates.

  • measurement of trade receivables (see Notes 2.3.10 "Financial assets and liabilities" and 7.4.2 "Trade and other operating receivables"),
  • measurement of net property income and services using the percentage-of-completion method (see Note 2.3.17 "Revenue and revenue-related expenses"),
  • the valuation of inventories and work-in-progress (see notes 2.3.8 "Inventories" and 7.4.1 "Inventories and work-in-progress").

Since the beginning of the crisis, the Group has implemented a risk mitigation policy prioritising the selling of the offer from the previous cycle before any new products are launched on the market.

• measurement of goodwill and brands (see Note 2.3.7 "Monitoring the value of non-current assets (excluding financial assets and investment property) and losses of value" and 7.2 "Intangible assets and goodwill").

And less significantly:

  • measurement of share-based payments (see Notes 2.3.12 "Share-based payments" and 6.1 "Equity"),
  • measurement of financial instruments (see Note 8 "Financial risk management").

In addition to the use of estimates, the Group's management has applied its judgement in the following cases:

  • measurement of rights of use, lease liabilities and contractual fees on investment property (see Notes 2.3.18 "Leases", 7.3 "Right-of-use on tangible and intangible fixed assets" and 7.1 "Investment properties"),
    • measurement and use of deferred tax assets (see Notes 2.3.16 "Taxes" and 5.3 "Corporate income tax"), and their activation,
  • measurement of provisions (see Note 2.3.15 "Provisions and contingent liabilities" and see Note 6.3 "Provisions"),
  • whether or not the criteria to identify an asset or group of assets as held for sale or whether an operation is intended to be discontinued in accordance with IFRS 5 (see Note 2.3.6 "Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations" and 7.1 "Investment properties").

The notes listed above and numbered 2.3.xx refer to the notes to the consolidated financial statements for the financial year ended 31 December 2023.

The Group's financial statements also take into account, based on current knowledge and practices, the issues of climate change and Sustainable development.

The Group is continuing its actions as described at 31 December 2023.

As such, at 30 June 2024, the effects of climate change had had no significant impact on the judgements and estimates required to prepare the financial statements.

The Altarea Group operates mainly in France, Italy and Spain in 2024, as in 2023.

One client accounted for more than 10% of the Group's revenue in the residential sector, i.e. €154.1 million (compared with €166.6 million in the first half of 2023).

NOTE 4 MAJOR EVENTS AND CHANGES IN THE CONSOLIDATION SCOPE

4.1 Major events

At the end of June 2024, the roadmap is progressing according to schedule.

After a year in 2023 dedicated to risk mitigation and clearing the previous cycle, the first half of 2024 was devoted to laying the foundations for the new cycle:

• launch of an affordable, low-carbon and profitable new generation residential offer to ultimately restore the profitability of property development;

• structuring and implementing the first investments in the new business lines.

During the half-year, the Group's results were driven by Retail, which posted an excellent performance.

Retail

The Group has pursued a strategy of selecting the most promising formats (large shopping centres, travel retail, retail parks, convenience stores) and currently manages a portfolio of 43 particularly high-performing shopping centres. These assets are mainly held in partnerships with leading institutional investors.

All types of retail recorded an excellent operational performance, with solid growth in retailer revenue, testifying to the attractiveness of the sites and the quality of their commercial offering.

Rental activity remained dynamic during the first half of 2024, driven by demand from leading brands attracted by the quality of the Group's assets.

Projects under development continued during the half-year in accordance with their schedule (Paris-Austerlitz, Bobigny Coeur de Ville and Enox2 in Gennevilliers).

Residential

Altarea is the second-largest residential developer in France. (35) Present throughout the country, the Group has rolled out a comprehensive multi-product offering(36) based on brands with complementary positions to meet the structurally immense needs of the French market: Cogedim, Woodeum x Pitch Immo, Histoire & Patrimoine, Nohée, Altarea Solutions and Services.

In the first half of 2024, new orders were down. Investments mainly concerned the remainder of the offer from the previous cycle, which is now almost entirely sold.

The Group has voluntarily implemented a policy prioritising the sale of the offer resulting from the previous cycle: regularisation of sales, slowdown of commercial launches and reduction of land acquisitions.

The supplies for the half-year correspond to projects in the market, compatible with the Group's new commitment criteria and in particular those of the new generation offer, which already represents around 1,300 units intended for a customer base of first-time buyers.

Launch of Access, the affordable, low-carbon and profitable offer for first-time buyers:

The principle consists of starting from the customer's purchasing power to propose an adapted offer. The design and all items constituting the cost price have been completely reviewed in order to achieve an affordable, low-carbon and profitable product.

The new generation offer for first-time buyers (called Access) is adressed to tenants currently renting in the private or social sector, who could not envisage being able to own property. In particular, Access incorporates new and very attractive financing methods that allow the buyer to start paying only when the keys are handed over with a monthly payment close to or even equivalent to the rental price.

The launch of the first Access project took place in May 2024 with the Rive Nature programme in Villeneuve-la-Garenne.

Business Property

The Group is focusing on the development of its services business with the signing, this half year, of two real estate development contracts in Paris for the Madeleine and Louis Le Grand projects. It also delivered the 26 Champs-Elysées project at the end of April, a fully renovated complex combining offices and shops.

A major event of the half-year, Altarea obtained the final building permit for the renovation of the former CNP headquarters located above the Paris-Montparnasse station. This project, developed in a 50/50 partnership with Caisse des Dépôts, will undergo a complete restructuring over the coming years.

The Group's other projects achieved favourable operational progress, particularly in terms of commercial discussions.

New businesses

As part of its strategic roadmap, Altarea has decided to invest in new activities: photovoltaics , data centers and real estate asset management.

Primonial

On March 2, 2022, Altarea informed the public that the acquisition of the Primonial group could not be completed under the conditions provided in the agreement. Altarea considers that the Sellers did not comply with the provisions of the acquisition protocol executed in July 2021, which has now lapsed.

Following the non-completion of the acquisition of Primonial, the Sellers of Primonial - various groups of shareholders (investment funds and managers) – initiated a lawsuit against the Company and its indirect subsidiary Alta Percier before

the Paris Commercial Court, claiming compensation for the loss they claim they have suffered. The Sellers successively alleged a loss of €228 million in 2022 and €707 million in 2023. During the proceedings, the Sellers made a request for investigative measure, which was dismissed by a judgment of May 7, 2024. Following this judgment, the Sellers filed new briefs and now allege a loss of €1 173 million in their latest briefs.

Having reviewed all the adverse argumentation, Altarea maintains its position that it is not liable for the failure to complete the transaction which is, in its view, attributable to the Sellers. Altarea therefore objects to the claims, which it considers meritless. To the contrary, Altarea considers that it is the Sellers who are liable for the failure of the transaction, and that they cannot claim damages that are meritless and unjustified, both in principle and in their assessment, with respect to the facts and the law.

For their part, Altarea and Alta Percier claim that the Group has suffered losses and have therefore requested, in their submissions filed in June 2022 and July 2023, that the Sellers be ordered to pay damages of €330 million.

At a forthcoming hearing of the Paris Commercial Court, Altarea and Alta Percier will file their brief in response, supported by the report of their financial expert, to maintain their position that the Sellers' claims are meritless and to detail their own compensation claims.

To date, the proceedings are ongoing and, as agreed with its counsels, no provision has been recognised in the Group's accounts.

As at 30 June 2024, the Group had unrecognised tax loss carry-forwards of €383.7 million (basis), as compared with €400.9 million for the year ending 31 December 2023.

Deferred taxes relating to valuation differences correspond primarily to the brands held by the Group.

Deferred taxes relating to the activation of tax losses mainly relate to losses recognised in the tax consolidation group Altareit and losses partially activated in the taxable sector of some retail REITs.

Deferred taxes are calculated (for French companies, which make up most of the Group's scope) at the rate of 25.83%, the rate set by the French Finance Act.

5.4 Earnings per share

Non-diluted net earnings per share (basic earnings per share) is the net income (Group share) compared to the weighted average number of shares in issue during the period, less the weighted average number of treasury shares.

To calculate the diluted net earnings per share, the weighted average number of shares in issue is adjusted to take into account the potentially dilutive effect of all equity instruments issued by the Company.

In 2024, as in 2023, the dilution arose only from the granting of rights to free shares in Altarea SCA to Group employees.

In accordance with IAS 33, the average number of 2023 shares has been adjusted over the periods presented in order to take into account the capital increases carried out in April 2024 to serve the free share plans. This fully dilutive issue is taken into account in the calculation of the denominator.

6.2.1 Net financial bond and bank debt

Group net financial bond and bank debt amounts to €1,848.9 million at 30 June 2024, compared with €1,647.1 million at 31 December 2023.

During the half-year, the Group has:

  • reduced the outstanding amount of its issues of mediumand short-term negotiable securities at zero (i.e. €- 92.2 million). The Group retains its two NEU CP programmes(37) (maturity less than or equal to 1 year) and its two NEU MTN programmes(38) (maturity greater than 1 year);
  • set up a seven-year €90 million mortgage loan on one of these assets.

At 30 June 2024, no revolving loan had been drawn down.

Borrowing costs are analysed in the note on earnings.

Net cash

Net cash amounted to €477.7 million, including cash equivalents (mainly term accounts – for €70,4 million) which are recorded at their fair value at each reporting date.

The market value of fixed-rate debt stands at €1,312.5 million at 30 June 2024, compared with €1,233.7 million at 31 December 2023.

6.2.2 Lease liabilities

Lease liabilities are debts mainly relating to real estate leases and vehicle leases (respectively for the premises occupied and the vehicles used by Group employees).

The sum of these liabilities totals €144.3 million at 30 June 2024, compared with €145.9 million at 31 December 2023. They are to be seen in light of the right-of-use assets on tangible and intangible assets.

6.2.3 Contractual fees on Investment properties

Contractual fees on investment properties, which are economically different in nature from rental obligations, concern debts relating to temporary occupancy authorisations and construction leases on retail assets (mainly stations).

The value of these fees amounts to €217.8 million at 30 June 2024, compared to €217.3 million at 31 December 2023, with regard to the rights-of-use relating to investment properties (income-generating assets).

The provision for post-employment benefits was valued by an external actuary. The valuation and accounting principles are detailed in the Company's accounting principles and methods. The main assumptions used to assess the commitment are the staff turnover rate, the discount rate and the salary increase rate: a variation of +/- 0.25% of these last two criteria would not result in no significant impact.

Other provisions primarily cover:

  • repayment risk on rental guarantees granted upon the disposal (in part or in whole) of non-current assets;
  • the risk of disputes arising from construction operations;
  • the risk of the failure of certain co-developer;
  • as well as estimates of residual risks involving completed programmes (litigation, ten-year guarantee, definitive general statement, etc.).

At 30 June 2024, no interest expenses had been capitalised for projects under development and construction.

Investment properties at fair value

The main movements concerned changes in the value of shopping centres in operation.

In a general context of decreasing real estate values, assets were virtually stable with a slight decompression of real estate exit rates (capitalisation rates).

Investment properties valued at cost

The assets under development and under construction recognised at cost mainly concern the development and redevelopment projects of shopping centres in France.

There were no major events during the financial year.

Rights of use on Investment properties

The right-of-use assets on investment properties correspond to the valuation under IFRS 16 of the temporary occupancy authorisation contracts for investment properties. They meet the definition of investment properties and are measured using the fair value model. Subsequently, they are valued at the amount equal to the debt presented on the line of the balance-sheet "Contractual fees on investment properties".

Value Measurement – IFRS 13

In accordance with IFRS 13 – "Fair Value Measurement" and the EPRA's recommendation on IFRS 13, "EPRA Position Paper on IFRS 13 – Fair Value Measurement and Illustrative Disclosures, February 2013", the Group chose to present additional parameters used to determine the fair value of its property portfolio.

The Group considered that classifying its assets in level 3 was most appropriate. This treatment reflects the primarily unobservable nature of the data used in the assessments, such as rents from rental statements, capitalisation rates and average annual growth rate of rents. The tables below thus present a number of quantitative parameters used to determine the fair value of the property portfolio. These parameters apply only to shopping centres controlled exclusively by the Group (and therefore do not include assets accounted for under the equity method) and which are measured at fair value by the expert appraisers.

Minimum 4.6% 67 5.0% 4.2% 1.9%
Weighted average 5.8% 408 7.1% 5.8% 3.0%

a - The initial capitalisation rate is the net rental income relative to the appraisal value excluding transfer duties.

b - Annual average rent (minimum guaranteed rent plus variable rent) per asset and m².

c - Rate used to discount the future cash flows.

d - Rate used to capitalise the revenue in the exit year in order to calculate the asset's exit value.

e - Average Annual Growth Rate of net rental income.

Based on a Group weighted average capitalisation rate, a +0.25% increase in capitalisation rates would lead to a reduction of €-106.4 million in the value of investment properties (-3.60%), while a -0.25% decrease in capitalisation rates would increase the value of investment properties by €116.4 million (+3.95%).

Goodwill generated by the Property Development business

Goodwill relates to the various acquisitions made by the Group.

The economic crisis affecting the real estate sector continues but did not reveal a more complex situation for the Group over the half-year.

The business plan determined as of 31 December 2023 takes into account a sharp cycle change linked to the ongoing real estate crisis (demand crisis coupled with inflation in construction costs).

The Group is in the adjustment phase and is undergoing a profound transformation of its industrial model (offer and model) and is working to source and structure new generation.

The situation at 30 June was in line with the BP used to establish the valuation of the various CGUs at 31 December 2023. In this context, the Group has updated its impairment tests. This update did not result in the recognition of impairment at 30 June 2024.

Brands

The Group owns several brands measured at a total value of €115.0 million.

The performance of the brands in the first half of the year is still in line with the Group's projections. In this context, the Group updated its tests and no impairment needed to be recognised at 30 June 2024.

The assets recognised in respect of right-of-use property leases mainly concern the leases of premises occupied by the Group's employees, and vehicle leases.

These assets are initially measured at cost with a corresponding lease liability (see Note 6.2). They are amortised on a straight-line basis over the reasonably certain lease term.

The lease term used for each contract corresponds to the reasonably certain lease term, i.e. the non-cancellable period adjusted for early termination options that the Group is reasonably certain not to exercise and extension options the Group is reasonably certain to exercise.

The changes are related to the signing of new property leases and/or the revision of contracts such as:

  • changes to the rental contract,
  • increase or decrease in the lease term or the amount of rents indexed to an index or rate.

Trade receivables

The Group carries out a case-by-case analysis to assess the credit risk of its tenants in centres in operation, and to write down, if necessary, the receivables of tenants where there is evidence that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due.

Trade receivables related to the Property Development business result from the transformation of contract assets (into receivables) as funds are called from customers under the Group's unconditional right to receive cash.

Advances and down payments paid

Advances and down payments correspond primarily to compensation for loss of use paid by the Group to the sellers of land when preliminary sales agreements are signed (for those not covered by guarantees) as part of its Property development business. They are offset against the price to be paid on completion of the purchase.

Principal accounts in debit

As part of its property management business and real estate transactions, the Group presents the cash balance it manages for third parties on its balance sheet.

NOTE 8 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

In the context of its operational and financial activities, the Group is exposed to the following risks as part of its operational and financing activities: interest rate risk, liquidity risk, counterparty risk and currency risk.

As the Group does not carry out any transactions in foreign currencies, it is not subject to currency risk.

(a) Financial instruments listed on an active market.

(b) Financial instruments whose fair value is determined using valuation techniques based on observable market inputs.

(c) Financial instruments whose fair value (in whole or in part) is based on non-observable inputs.

Equity instruments mainly comprise equity securities of non-consolidated companies. At each acquisition, an analysis is carried out to determine the Group's management intention, and therefore its accounting method (change in value through income or by OCI). Cash and cash equivalents breakdown between cash presented under receivables and marketable securities presented as financial assets within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

8.2 Interest rate risk

The Group is exposed to market risk, particularly with regard to interest rate risk. The Group uses a number of financial instruments to cope with this risk.

The Group holds a portfolio of swaps and caps designed to hedge against interest rate risk on its financial debts.

At 30 June, the Group had a significant interest-rate hedging position. This situation is the result of the Group's global risk management policy.

The objective is to reduce, where it seems appropriate, fluctuations in cash flows linked to changes in interest rates.

Derivative instruments are measured and recognised at fair value in the balance sheet based on external valuations. Changes in the fair value of derivative instruments are always recognised in income. The Group has not opted for hedge accounting.

The Group mainly uses credit markets.

8.3 Liquidity risk

CASH

The Group maintained significant access to liquidity, accompanied by good conditions.

The Group had a positive cash position of €531.4 million at 30 June 2024, compared to €713.1 million at 31 December 2023. This represents its main tool for managing liquidity risk (see Note 6.2.1 "Net financial bond and bank debt").

Since 2023, an automated Group cash-pooling scheme has been in place for almost the entire consolidation scope (including partner companies). Thus, almost all of the cash on the balance sheet is available for the Group's operations.

At 30 June 2024, the Group can also draw down an additional €1,286 million (in the form of unused confirmed corporate credit lines not allocated to development projects or operations), to use without restriction.

FINANCIAL COVENANTS AND RATIOS

The Group is also required to comply with a certain number of financial covenants that contribute to the monitoring and management of the Group's financial risks.

The covenants with which the Group must comply concern the corporate bank loans and listed bonds and certain mortgage bank loans, for €1,439 million.

The bond issue subscribed for by Altareit SCA (€334.5 million) is subject to leverage covenants.

They are listed below:

At 30 June 2024, the Company is meeting all its covenants.

COUNTERPARTY RISK

In the course of its business, the Group is exposed to two main categories of counterparty: financial institutions and tenants.

With regard to financial institutions, credit and/or counterparty risks relate to cash and cash equivalents, derivatives arranged to hedge interest rate risk, and the banking institutions with which these products are arranged.

To limit this risk, the Group only arranges hedging with leading financial institutions. The selected vehicles have a very limited risk profile and are monitored.

With regard to tenants, the Group believes it has no significant exposure to credit risk due to its diversified portfolio of tenants. In the Retail business, tenants also provide financial guarantees, mainly in the form of security deposits, on signing lease agreements.

Under France's "Hoguet Act", the Group holds security deposits received from specialist bodies in an amount of €113.9 million as a guarantee covering its real estate management and trading activities.

The Group also receives security deposits from its tenants to guarantee that they will pay their rent.

Payment guarantees received from customers

The Group receives customer payment guarantees issued by financial institutions to guarantee sums payable by the customer. They mainly relate to Retail and Office property development projects.

Other commitments received

In its Property Development business, the Group receives deposits on construction contracts from contractors to cover holdbacks (up to 5% of the amount of the contract – noncosted commitment).

Commitments given

COMMITMENTS GIVEN RELATING TO FINANCING ACTIVITIES

The Group makes representations and warranties or contingent consideration when disposing of shares in subsidiaries and affiliates. When the Group considers that it is probable that there will be a cash outlay under the terms of these guarantees, it sets aside allowances to provisions and their amount is reassessed at each closing date.

The main commitments concern:

  • undertaking to subscribe for the capital of companies comprising the AltaFund investment fund in the amount of €3.5 million (firm commitment for identified projects);
  • liability guarantees of €35 million given following the disposal of miscellaneous assets.

As part of the Crédit Agricole Assurances agreements, the Group has signed a certain number of legal undertakings that restrict the liquidity of its shareholding under certain conditions.

COMMITMENTS GIVEN RELATING TO OPERATING ACTIVITIES

Construction work completion guarantees

Completion guarantees are given to customers as part of off-plan sales and are provided on behalf of Group companies by financial institutions, mutual guarantee organisations or insurance companies. They are reported in the amount of risk borne by the financial institution that issued the guarantee.

In return, Group companies give financial institutions a promise of mortgage security and an undertaking not to sell ownership units.

Guarantees on forward payments for assets

These guarantees mainly cover purchases of land or buildings for the Property Development business.

Guarantees for loss of use

As part of its Property Development activities, the Group signs preliminary sales agreements with landowners, the execution of which is subject to conditions precedent, including conditions relating to obtaining administrative authorisations. In return for their undertakings, landowners receive compensation for loss of use, which takes the form of an advance (carried on the asset side of the balance sheet) or a surety (an off-balance sheet commitment). The Group undertakes to pay the compensation for loss of use if it decides not to buy the land when the conditions precedent are met.

Other sureties and guarantees granted

The other sureties and guarantees given mainly relate to the Group's involvement in AltaFund, its Business Property real estate investment fund, and guarantees given as part of its development activity.

Reciprocal commitments

Notably in the ordinary course of its Property Development business, the Group enters into reciprocal commitments to ensure the REIT control of future projects. The Group signs bilateral sales agreements with landowners: the owner undertakes to sell its land and the Group commits to buy it if all conditions precedent (administrative and/ or marketing) are met.

Other commitments

In the conduct of its proprietary shopping centre development business, Altarea has made commitments to invest in projects initiated and controlled by the Company.

Moreover, in the conduct of its Residential property development, the Group signs new orders (or preliminary sales agreements) with its customers, the execution of which depends on whether the customers meet the conditions precedent, particularly with respect to their ability to secure financing.

As part of its Property Development business, the Group has a future offering consisting of unilateral preliminary sales agreements.

The amount of these commitments is shown in the business review.

Minimum future rents to be received

The total of minimum future rents to be received under noncancellable rental agreements over the period amounted to:

(€ millions) 30/06/2024 31/12/2023
Less than 1 year 275.1 200.0
Between one and five years 383.2 433.5
More than 5 years 170.7 186.6
Guaranteed minimum rent 829.0 820.1

Rents receivable relate mainly to shopping centres owned by the Group.

10.2 Contingent liabilities

The Group is not subject to any significant proposed adjustments as of 30 June 2024.

No other new litigation or governmental, legal, or arbitration proceedings that are likely to have significant effects on the Company's financial position or profitability arose in the period, other than those for which a provision has been recognised (see Note 6.3 "Provisions") or for which the case is ongoing.

Regarding the Primonial litigation, in agreement with its advisors, no provision has been recorded by the Group (see Note 4.1 "Major events").

NOTE 11 POST-CLOSING EVENTS

Préjeance Industrial

In early July 2024, Altarea acquired the French company Prejeance Industrial from the Spanish group Repsol. It specialises in the development of photovoltaic projects on small and medium-sized roofs (between 100 and 500 kWp), mainly on agricultural sheds. Its experienced team (18 employees) is involved in all stages of the life of solar power plant projects: development, construction, asset management, financing/refinancing.

These facilities are true renewable energy solutions, while offering farmers additional income and agricultural equipment without any liability for the operator.

At the end of June 2024, the company owns and operates a park with a total installed capacity of more than 42 MWp located entirely in France and is developing a pipeline of secured projects of nearly 400 MWp, including 41 MWp under construction.

The investment amounted to approximately €140 million. Prejeance Industrial will be consolidated in the Group's financial statements from the 2nd half of 2024.

Others

On 5 July, the Group redeemed a bond issue for €255 million (nominal) and paid the dividend to shareholders, in cash and through the delivery of the new shares that were created (creation of 1,080,657 shares) for an amount of €91.3 million.

Period from 1 January to 30 June 2024

Statutory auditors' report on the half-year financial information

To the Shareholders,

In compliance with the assignment entrusted to us by your Annual General Meeting and in accordance with the requirements of article L. 451-1-2 III of the French Monetary and Financial Code (Code monétaire et financier), we hereby report to you on

  • the review of the accompanying condensed half-year consolidated financial statements of Altarea for the period from 1 January to 30 June 2024;
  • the verification of information contained in the interim management report.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Executive Management. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these financial statements based on our review.

1. Conclusion on the financial statements

We conducted our review in accordance with professional standards applicable in France.

A review of interim financial information consists principally of making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters and applying analytical and other review procedures. A limited review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with professional standards applicable in France. Consequently, the assurance that the financial statements, taken as a whole, are free from material misstatement obtained in the context of a limited review is a moderate assurance, lower than that obtained in the context of an audit.

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed half-year consolidated financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, as adopted by the European Union.

2. Specific verification

We have also verified the information given in the half-year management report commenting on the condensed half-year consolidated financial statements subject to our review.

We have no matters to report as to its fair presentation and consistency with the condensed half-year consolidated financial statements.
