Situation is stabilising in Retail
Providing support for retailers Adjustment of asset values Ongoing normalisation of activity
A resilient model
Diversified business mix Strong corporate culture Exemplary team mobilisation


1.OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE
Residential: strong step-up in activity as the lockdown ends
Cycle almost fully interrupted during the lockdown
Halt of 300 building sites for two months
Closure of notary offices
Lower commercialisation (30% of regular level)1
Remote work
Business resumption actively managed
Resumption of work on building sites in early May Return to a close to normal pace in June
CDC Habitat agreements
Actively managed notarised sales campaign
Progressive return to on-site work on May 11 and 100% on-site as the Group moved in its new headquarters
Outstanding results despite the current situation
New orders €1,921 m (+30%)
Notarised sales €1,883 m (+94%) +23% excl. CDC Habitat
Revenue €1,074 (+19.5%)
Revenue acceleration Margin preserved in volume Reduced debt

New orders: €1,921 m (+30%), ie. 6,667 units (+25%) Strong appetite from institutional investors supplanting individuals

Sales to individual investors 36% vs. 74% in 2019 €692 m 2,184 units Sales to institutional investors 64% vs. 26% in 2019 €1,228 m 4,483 units CDC Habitat agreement €825 m excl. VAT 3,500 units "Building permit delivered" for most units Intentional choice to sell available units quickly Steady margins in volume

Growth in Residential revenue (+19.5%) An outstanding achievement

Thanks to a remarkable mobilisation as the lockdown ended, Altarea has succeeded in doubling the number of notarised sales vs. 2019 €1,883 m vs. €1,074 m
This campaign resulted in a record level of collections1
Sales completion rate have thus more than offset the delays in technical completion due to the lockdown

Potential remains strong: increase in backlog and pipeline



Retail: support tenants' recovery

Significant impact of the lockdown
Partial activity during 2 months
Essential services shops < 6% of rents
Successful resumption
Quick resumption of footfall and tenants' revenues
Figures slightly below 2019 levels (outperformance of Retail Parks)
The mutation of Retail
Increase in insolvency procedures resulting from Covid-19
Ready-to-wear to be reinvented
Support to retailers
Waive of rent for VSE and for shops in railway stations
Lease renegotiation (adjustments for 2020, extension & compensation)

Q2 rent invoicing: €63.9 m (€39.1 m in GS) A greater clarity


Ongoing negotiation on deferred rents
Rent waiver option Extension of contractual duration of leases Revised rental valuation A positive approach from retailers

Net rents: -€11.2 m impact recognised in interim results


Rents recognition
Unrecoverable and waived1 rents recognised in expense in the financial statements as of 30th June Impact: -€11.2 m (€7.9 m in Group share)
Impact of tenants negotiations will be spread over the duration of the renegotiated leases (€3 to 4 m/year)

Portfolio value adjustment: -€117 m in Group share

Value adjustment: -3,8% in a l-f-l basis

An effect mainly due to yield increase (+10 bps to 5.16%)

Carrying forward risk management policy, in line with the first semester of 2020
