PRESS RELEASE
1. Interim management report
1.1. Summary of activity since 01.01.2021
For more than 35 years, Cofinimmo has been developing, managing and investing in rental real estate. Attentive to societal changes, Cofinimmo's permanent objective is to offer high-quality care, living and working spaces ('Caring, Living and Working - Together in Real Estate'). Capitalising on its expertise, Cofinimmo consolidates its leadership in European healthcare real estate.
The pandemic that the world has been experiencing for almost one year and a half now has highlighted the importance of the healthcare sector for each and every one of us. Through its investments, Cofinimmo is actively participating in the operation, maintenance, extension and renewal of the property portfolio dedicated to healthcare in nine countries.
During the first half-year of 2021, Cofinimmo made several investments (for 698 million EUR) in various healthcare real estate sub-segments in Europe including, for the first time, in Ireland and Italy. Thanks to these operations, healthcare real estate assets (3.5 billion EUR) account for 64% of the group's consolidated portfolio as at 30.06.2021 (for the relevant threshold in terms of reduced withholding tax, see section 1.8.2 below), which reaches 5.5 billion EUR. In addition, after 30.06.2021, the group made its first investments in the United Kingdom for a total amount of approximately 57 million GBP (66 million EUR). Ongoing development projects represent a financial envelope of more than 530 million EUR to be achieved by 2023. Finally, Cofinimmo obtained a BREEAM Very Good certification for the newly built nursing and care home in Vigo and a BREEAM Excellent certification for that under construction in Oleiros in Spain.
In the office segment, Cofinimmo is also executing its strategy which consists in rebalancing its office portfolio between the various sub-segments to the benefit of high-quality buildings located in the Central Business District of Brussels (CBD). On 03.02.2021, the group announced the launch of the contribution project of its office portfolio into a subsidiary, giving the option to open the capital of this subsidiary (of which the control would be maintained) to future investors, who would therefore benefit from Cofinimmo's expertise. On 31.05.2021, the group also announced the future disposal of 17 office buildings located in the periphery of Antwerp and in the decentralised area and the periphery of Brussels for more than 80 million EUR.
In terms of financing, several operations enabled to further improve the balance sheet structure. On the capital markets, Cofinimmo carried out capital increases (in March, April and June) totalling approximately 350 million EUR (contribution in kind, in cash via accelerated bookbuilding and optional dividend). As at 01.07.2021, Cofinimmo had almost 800 million EUR of headroom of its credit lines after deduction of the backup of the commercial paper programme.
The group's momentum in terms of investments and financing (average cost of debt down at 1.1%), coupled with effective management of the existing portfolio (occupancy rate of 97.9%, gross rental revenues up 0.8% on a like-for-like basis, operating margin at 82.8%), enabled the company to realise a net result from core activities - group share of 103 million EUR as at 30.06.2021, higher than the outlook1 (compared to the 88 million EUR that were made as at 30.06.2020, i.e. a 17% increase), mainly due to the investments made. The net result from core activities per share - group share amounts to 3.62 EUR (higher than the outlook, compared to 3.40 EUR as at 30.06.2020, i.e. a 6% increase), taking into account the issue of shares in 2020 and 2021. The average number of shares entitled to share in the result of the period thus increased from 25,934,821 to 28,463,517 between these two dates.
1 i.e. the quarterly outlook derived from the annual outlook presented in section 11.3 of the press release dated 28.04.2021.
PRESS RELEASE
The net result - group share amounted to 95 million EUR (i.e. 3.35 EUR per share) as at 30.06.2021, compared to 60 million EUR (i.e. 2.31 EUR per share) as at 30.06.2020. This variation is mainly due to the increase in the net result from core activities - group share and to the changes in fair value of hedging instruments, partially compensated by the changes in fair value of investment properties between the first half-year of 2020 and the first half-year of 2021, these two elements being non-cash items.
With a debt-to-assets ratio of 48.2% as at 30.06.2021, Cofinimmo's consolidated balance sheet (whose BBB/A-2 rating was confirmed in March 2021) shows a strong solvency (information on risks and uncertainties related to the coronavirus COVID-19 are stated in section 1.13).
Taking into account the current status of investment files, the investments planned for 2021, as detailed on section 11.1 of press release dated 28.04.2021, will be exceeded. The new gross investment estimate is therefore established to date at 930 million EUR (compared to 445 million EUR before). Based on the information currently available and the assumptions detailed above, and barring major unforeseen events, Cofinimmo expects to achieve a net result from core activities - group share higher than 7.00 EUR per share for the 2021 financial year, up compared to that of the 2020 financial year (6.85 EUR per share), and taking into account the dilutive impact of the possible conversion of convertible bonds maturing next September. The gross dividend outlook for the 2021 financial year, payable in 2022, can therefore be confirmed at 6.00 EUR per share. This outlook is provided subject to the main risks and uncertainties stated below (see section 1.13).

Main accomplishments:
- Cofinimmo to build extension of healthcare complex in Leuven
On 14.01.2021, Cofinimmo signed an agreement relating to the acquisition of 100% of the shares of the limited liability company Home Vogelzang OG. This company owns the rights in rem in a plot of land located in Leuven, Flemish Brabant, for the next 30 years. An extension will be added to an existing complex located on the plot of land.
The extension will be adjacent to an existing nursing and care home and assisted-living units and will be carried out in the form of a turnkey project. For this building, the aim is an energy consumption 30% lower than the benchmark. The four-storey building will offer approximately 90 beds over a surface area of almost 6,500 m². Provisional acceptance of the works is expected by the end of March 2022.
The conventional value of the complex for the calculation of the share price amounts to approximately 15 million EUR. The project will be leased through a long leasehold to VZW Home Vogelzang, which already operates the existing
nursing and care home and assisted-living units, and which holds the permit to operate this extension. The leasehold is of the triple net1 type and has a term of 27 years, counting from the provisional acceptance of the extension. The annual fee, which is in line with the market, will be due from the delivery of the works and will be indexed annually according to the Belgian consumer price index. At the expiration of the rights in rem, the building will automatically accrue to VZW Home Vogelzang. This transaction will therefore be recorded in Cofinimmo's accounts as a finance lease.
- Acquisition of a plot of land for the construction of a nursing and care home in Genappe
On 12.02.2021, Cofinimmo acquired 100% of the shares of a company owning a plot of land in Genappe (Walloon Brabant). This plot of land will see the construction of a new nursing and care home. The works are carried out within the framework of a turnkey project. The investment budget (including the plot of land and the works) amounts to approximately 19 million EUR.
1 Insurances, taxes and maintenance are born by the tenant.
REGULATED INFORMATION Brussels, embargo until 28.07.2021, 5:40 PM CET
The future nursing and care home will be part of a residential care campus where assisted-living units are also planned. Located near the centre of the city of Genappe, in Walloon Brabant, it will replace an older nursing and care home in Chastre. Various bus stops within a 100-meter radius will ensure the accessibility to the site. The construction of this new nursing and care home meets the growing demand in the region for additional and modern residential care capacity.
The new nursing and care home will offer approximately 112 beds, spread over a surface area of more than 6,000 m². The building meets all the current energy standards and sustainability requirements. Modern and sustainable materials as well as the latest techniques (LED-lighting, reuse of rainwater, ventilation, etc.) will be used. The building's carbon footprint will be significantly lower than that of the older nursing and care home.
After the delivery of the works, expected early 2023, Korian Belgium will operate the new nursing and care home. In this context, a triple net1 lease has been concluded for a fix term of 28 years. The rent will be indexed according to the Belgian health-index. The gross rental yield amounts to more than 4.5%.
- Acquisition of five healthcare sites through contribution in kind
On 08.04.2021, Cofinimmo acquired five healthcare sites in Belgium through a contribution in kind. The conventional value of the assets amounts to 103 million EUR (rounded amount).

On 20.05.2021, Cofinimmo acquired through one of its subsidiaries a plot of land on the Monnikenberg campus in Hilversum where a care clinic will be built. The investment budget for both the acquisition of the plot of land and the works amounts to approximately 30 million EUR.
The Monnikenberg campus is located in east Hilversum, a municipality with more than 91,000 inhabitants in the Dutch province of North Holland. It is about 20 km from Amsterdam. A new large-scale construction project of the Tergooi hospital is currently ongoing on the site. This involves a hospital with a regional presence and consists of various buildings.
In this framework, Cofinimmo will construct a care clinic of almost 7,000 m². The building will house various acute care departments (ophthalmology, dermatology, plastic surgery, ENT, oral surgery), a treatment and diagnosis centre as well as the offices of Tergooi's supporting departments.
The construction will start this year, at the beginning of June, and will be monitored by Tergooi. The care clinic was designed by Wiegerinck Architecten and fits perfectly with the core hospital. Moreover, thanks to the use of a range of sustainable techniques and materials (LED lighting, solar panels, air treatment with heat recovery, air/water heat pumps), it will have a good energy performance and (at least) an A+ energy label. Delivery of the works is planned in the course of 2023.

On 11.05.2021, Cofinimmo signed an agreement to acquire, under certain conditions, a nursing and care home currently under construction in Leipzig, in the Land of Saxony, for approximately 19 million EUR. The nursing and care home is already pre-let to AZURIT Rohr GmbH, which is part of the AZURIT Group, one of the leading operators in Germany.
The nursing and care home currently under construction is located in Leipzig, in the Land of Saxony. With a population of over 600,000 inhabitants, Leipzig is the eighth most populated city in Germany.
The site is located in a residential area which counts several community gardens where people can meet. The building is also located near several bus stops and a train station, making it easily accessible. After work completion, the building will offer 132 beds spread over a surface area of almost 7,200 m².
Thanks to the good orientation of the compact new construction and external sun blinds, the building will require minimal heating and cooling energy. The use of natural light as well as LED lighting will also result in an excellent energy performance. Moreover, the building will be connected to a district heating system making it free of fossil fuels. Finally, to promote sustainable mobility, the building will be equipped with bicycle parking spaces and charging stations for electric vehicles.
Cofinimmo signed (through a wholly-owned subsidiary) an agreement to acquire the above-mentioned nursing and care home, under certain conditions, for approximately 19 million EUR. The conditions should be lifted before the closing, which is expected to take place in the first quarter of 2022 (this future investment is therefore not included in the new investment estimate for 2021, as published on section 11.1 of the press release dated 28.04.2021). At that time, the acquisition price will be paid and rental income will start to be perceived.
A 'Dach und Fach' 1 lease contract has been signed with AZURIT Rohr GmbH for a fixed term of 25 years. The rent will be indexed according to the German consumer price index and the gross rental yield will be approximately 4.5%.

REGULATED INFORMATION
Brussels, embargo until 28.07.2021, 5:40 PM CET
The building will have a total surface area of over 7,000 m² and will offer 157 beds. It will be located near several parks, and will be easily accessible thanks to bus lines. The building will have an A-level energy label and every effort is being made to achieve a BREEAM Excellent certificate (estimated energy intensity of 75 kWh/m², low water consumption, etc.). Its architecture has been quality controlled in order to assess the environmental respect of the building according to local tradition and heritage values of the Balearic architecture.
Cofinimmo has acquired this plot of land through a subsidiary. Works are expected to start soon, with delivery of the nursing and care home scheduled for the second quarter of 2023.
A double net1 lease with a term of 25 years has been signed with the operator CLECE. The rent will be indexed according to the Spanish consumer price index. The gross rental yield is in line with current market conditions.

Cofinimmo entered Finland in November 2020, where it already holds a healthcare real estate portfolio for a fair value of 31 million EUR. During the first half-year of 2021, Cofinimmo invested 17 million EUR in it within the framework of development projects.
Main accomplishments:
- Acquisition of a new nursing and care home in Vantaa
On 21.01.2021, Cofinimmo has continued its expansion in the Finnish healthcare real estate sector with the acquisition of a nursing and care home under construction in Vantaa, a city of 230,000 inhabitants located in the Helsinki metropolitan area, the capital of Finland. Vantaa is the fourth largest city in Finland. The total investment budget for the plot of land and the works amounts to approximately 12 million EUR.
As a reminder, Finland offers interesting perspectives for Cofinimmo, which has the ambition to contribute to the response to the healthcare need of the Finnish population. The country has approximately 5.5 million inhabitants, of whom 22% are 65 or older and approximately 10% are 75 or older. The proportion of inhabitants aged 65 and above is expected to reach over 26% by 2030. This demographic situation will increase the need for high-quality healthcare services. Currently, care facilities in Finland are offering approximately 65,000 beds. They are managed by operators from the public sector, charity associations and the private sector, with the latter taking up about 50% of the beds. The nursing and care home segment therefore offers an interesting long-term growth potential, which will be driven by the ageing of the population, for the real estate portfolio as well as because of the privatisation of healthcare real estate.

1.4.7. Healthcare real estate in Ireland
- - Investments in the first half-year of 2021: 93 million EUR
- Healthcare real estate portfolio in Ireland at 30.06.2021: 89 million EUR (7 sites in operation)
Cofinimmo entered Ireland in January 2021, where it already holds a healthcare real estate portfolio with a fair value of 89 million EUR.
Main accomplishments:
- Acquisition of six nursing and care homes and one rehabilitation clinic
On 18.01.2021, Cofinimmo entered the Irish healthcare real estate sector with the acquisition, through a subsidiary, of six nursing and care homes and one rehabilitation clinic in the counties of Cavan, Dublin, Kildare, Meath and Louth. It consists of a total investment of approximately 93 million EUR (real estate transfer taxes included). The fair value as determined by the independent real estate valuer and recognised in the balance sheet amounts to 89 million EUR (excluding real estate transfer taxes).
Ireland has approximately 5 million inhabitants. With approximately 30,000 beds, the Irish nursing home sector is less well equipped than most other European countries. According to Eurostat, the proportion of people aged 65 or more is expected to grow at a substantially higher pace than other European countries by 2040. As a result, demand for high-quality elderly care facilities is strong in Ireland.
The current supply of new nursing homes and care facilities throughout the country does not meet the increasing demand. The bed capacity should grow by roughly one third of the current capacity to keep up with demand in the short term. Additionally, a material part of the current stock will have to be renovated to meet modern comfort and safety norms.
For each of the seven sites, which are already let to DomusVi, a triple net2 lease has been concluded for a fix term of 15 years. The rents will be indexed annually according to the Irish consumer price index and the gross rental yield will be in line with current market conditions.
All the sites are operational and have a good energy performance (label B or C). Together, they offer a total surface area of approximately 39,500 m² and 491 beds.

1.4.8. Healthcare real estate in Italy
- - Investments in the first half-year of 2021: 191 million EUR
- Investments in the second quarter of 2021: 191 million EUR
- Healthcare real estate portfolio in Italy at 30.06.2021: 188 million EUR (6 sites in operation)
Cofinimmo entered Italy in May 2021, where it already holds a healthcare real estate portfolio with a fair value of 188 million EUR.
Main accomplishments:
- Acquisition of a portfolio of 6 nursing and care homes in Lombardy and Veneto
On 06.05.2021, Cofinimmo signed an agreement to invest in two funds owning 6 nursing and care homes in Northern Italy. The conventional value of the portfolio amounts to approximately 190 million EUR, with a gross rental yield of above 5%. The fair value as determined by the independent real estate valuer and booked in the balance sheet amounts to 188 million EUR (excluding real estate transfer taxes).
On 15.03.2021, Cofinimmo announced that it entered in exclusive negotiations with Lagune International S.A.S., a subsidiary of Batipart, in order to potentially invest in this portfolio. The press release dated 06.05.2021 signifies the successful conclusion of aforementioned negotiations.
Italy enjoys the second highest life expectancy at birth in the EU after Spain (83 years, which is 2 years above the EU average). More than 23% of Italy's 60 million inhabitants are aged 65 and older. This percentage is forecast to increase to over 27% by 2030.
Italy has one of the lowest nursing home bed capacity in Europe. To reach a capacity comparable to that of most other West European countries, Italy would need to double its current volume. This would represent approximately 400,000 additional nursing home beds. The private sector represents 20% of Italian beds, and is expected to grow significantly over the coming years.
The Italian nursing home sector is a highly regulated market. Although the system varies across regions, Lombardy and Veneto require an accreditation for operators to provide subsidised care. Federal and Regional authorities use accreditations to organise the distribution of bed capacity according to regional needs.
The portfolio consists of 6 nursing and care homes of good quality, all situated in Northern Italy (5 in Lombardy, one in Veneto). Together, they represent 1,127 beds and a total surface area of approximately 65,000 m2 . One site includes a dialysis unit of 16 beds. The sites are fully leased to 4 operators (KOS, Korian, Codess Sociale, NephroCare).
Lombardy has a population of 10 million people, which is approximately one-sixth of Italy's population. More than a fifth of Italy's GDP is produced in the region, making it the most populous, richest and most productive region in the country. It is also one of the top regions in Europe for the same criteria. Veneto is the eighth largest region in Italy. GDP per capita is 14% above the Italian and 9% above the European average.

Cofinimmo's office portfolio has a fair value of 1.45 billion EUR. During the first half-year of 2021, Cofinimmo invested 6 million EUR in it within the framework of ongoing redevelopment.
Main accomplishments:
- Launch of the contribution of the office portfolio into a subsidiary
On 03.02.2021, Cofinimmo announced the launch of the contribution of its office portfolio into a subsidiary to allow future investors, in due time, to participate in the capital of the subsidiary (of which the control would be retained) and to benefit from Cofinimmo's very experienced management and investment platform, while allowing the group to recycle a part of the capital that has been invested in this portfolio.
This contribution into a subsidiary fits into the value creation strategy for the office portfolio. Thanks to its 35 years of experience in office real estate, Cofinimmo relies on a management model that offers an integrated services platform. Currently, Cofinimmo's office portfolio is mainly composed of 77 buildings with a total surface area of about 550,600 m² and an approximate value of 1.45 billion EUR, representing around 30% of the company's consolidated portfolio. It is mainly located in the Brussels Central Business District (CBD), as a result of the recentering to that area initiated mid-2018. Simultaneously, the internal teams follow the dynamics of market demand with regards to flexibility and innovation, and they collaborate to achieve the best possible results in terms of energy efficiency and ESG (Environment, Social, Governance) requirements.
The specialised office buildings subsidiary will have the status of an institutional regulated real estate company (IRREC/SIRI/IGVV). The board of directors approved the launch of the process leading to the contribution of the office portfolio into a subsidiary, which derives naturally from the strategy that was established mid-2018. The contribution is currently scheduled to be completed during the last quarter of 2021 at the earliest. This operation will have no effect on the consolidated accounts nor on the dividend.
- Future disposal of 17 office buildings located in the periphery of Antwerp and the decentralised area and periphery of Brussels
On 31.05.2021, Cofinimmo signed a private agreement regarding the future divestment of office buildings located in the Antwerp and Brussels periphery as well as in the decentralised area of Brussels. The sale price amounts to more than 80 million EUR. This amount is in line with the last fair value (available prior to the announcement, i.e. that as at 31.03.2021) determined by Cofinimmo's independent real estate valuers. The sale of the office buildings, with a total surface area of more than 66,800 m², is fully in line with Cofinimmo's strategy in the office segment.

1.5. Events after 30.06.2021
1.5.1. Healthcare real estate in the Netherlands
- Acquisition of a building on a healthcare campus in Beugen
On 15.07.2021, Cofinimmo acquired a medical office building on the healthcare campus Maasziekenhuis Pantein, located in the municipality Boxmeer (Dutch province of North Brabant), for approximately 12 million EUR. The building is already let.
The medical office building is located in Beugen, 20 km south of Nijmegen, and is part of the Boxmeer healthcare campus, which also houses the Maasziekenhuis general hospital, the Boxmeer general practitioner outpost and a large car park. The campus therefore offers both general hospital care and academic and specialist care.
Built in 2011, the building has a surface area of approximately 4,250 m² and has an A energy label. It is located in a green area and is easily accessible both by public transport (bus stop at 100 m) and by car (near major access roads).
The building houses the offices of the hospital's management and staff as well as some acute care departments (e.g. orthopaedics, rehabilitation).
A double net1 lease with a residual lease length of 10 years was concluded with 'Stichting Pantein', which has been using the building for 10 years already. The rents will be indexed annually according to the Dutch consumer price index. The gross rental yield amounts to approximately 6%.
This investment is not included in the new investment estimate for 2021, as published in section 11.1 of the press release dated 28.04.2021.
1 The owner primarily bears the maintenance costs of the roof and the structure of the building.
PRESS RELEASE
- Provisional acceptance of a nursing and care home in The Hague
The renovation work on the nursing and care home Rivierenbuurt in The Hague was completed in mid-July. The lease will take effect on 01.08.2021. As a reminder, Cofinimmo acquired this nursing and care home in May 2020 for a complete renovation. This work resulted in a modern and sustainable nursing and care home of almost 5,400 m² with 87 beds. The renovation was designed with a long-term vision so that the rooms can be adapted to more severe treatments and patients/residents can continue to live there regardless of their care needs. Stichting Haagse Wijk-en Woonzorg (HWW zorg) rents the entire building under a 15-year double net1 lease. The rent will be indexed to the Dutch consumer price index.
1.5.2. Healthcare real estate in Spain
- Acquisition of a new nursing and care home in Bilbao
On 15.07.2021, Cofinimmo acquired a newly built nursing and care home in the Basque Country. The total investment amounts to approximately 9 million EUR. The nursing and care home is let to the ORPEA group, which is one of the main operators in Spain.
The newly built nursing and care home is located in Bilbao, capital of the province of Biscay and the largest city of the autonomous community of the Basque Country. With a population of over one million inhabitants, the Bilbao metropolitan area is one of the most densely populated metropolitan areas in Northern Spain. The building is located in a residential area at 500 metres from the Etxebarria park, one of the largest green areas of Bilbao, located on one of the hillsides surrounding the city. There are shops, two schools and a clinic in the neighbourhood. It is easily accessible by car, bus and subway, thanks to the proximity of Bilbao's main roads and numerous public transport links (several bus stops and metro stations).
The building has a surface area of around 5,000 m² and offers 104 beds, spread over a ground floor and five storeys. The building is equipped with the latest techniques (e.g. heating and cooling production system consisting of two centralised condensing boilers and two centralised water-air heat pumps). It has a level-B energy performance certificate.
The double net 1 lease signed with the ORPEA group has a term of 15 years. The rent will be indexed according to the Spanish consumer price index and the gross rental yield is in line with current market conditions.
This investment is not included in the new investment estimate for 2021, as published in section 11.1 of the press release dd. 28.04.2021.
1.5.3. Healthcare real estate in the United Kingdom
- Cofinimmo enters British healthcare real estate
On 26.07.2021, Cofinimmo acquired, through subsidiaries, three recent nursing and care homes in the United Kingdom for approximately 57 million GBP. The nursing and care homes are situated in East and South-East England and count approximately 200 beds in total.
The UK has one of the largest care home landscapes in Europe, but the sector remains highly fragmented2 . 78% of care home beds are in properties not originally built with care use in mind or are more than 20 years old. Purpose-built homes that are less than 20 years old account for just 22% of all care home supply.
1 The owner primarily bears the maintenance costs of the roof and the structure of the building.

Population over 85 is set to increase by 27.5% to 2030, with an estimated 460,000 more people of this age in the decade. This is seven times the growth rate of the overall UK population and 16 times faster than the working age population.
Based on current rates of occupation, the rise in dementia, and the high levels of co-morbidity amongst older people, the UK would require a further 10,000 additional care home beds per annum to 2030 to keep up with demand. Not only is there a need for a higher quantity of care home beds, but quality issues of the current stock need to be addressed urgently.
The need for investment in the British nursing and care home sector is high. Cofinimmo's entry in Britain underscores its active participation in the expansion and renewal of the property portfolio dedicated to healthcare in Europe.
The portfolio consists of 3 very recent nursing and care homes of prime quality, in the East and South-East of England, all situated in a range of max. 100 km north of London. Together, they represent 196 beds and a total surface area of approximately 9,500 m². The sites are fully leased to Country Court Care Group Limited.
Ferrars Hall was purpose built in June 2016 to a high standard and comprises 66 bedrooms. It is arranged over three floors, offering residential and specialist dementia care. Located in the heart of the town of Huntingdon, near Cambridge, it is wellintegrated in the local community.
Lakeview Lodge is a 66 bedroom purpose built care home constructed in March 2017 to a very high standard. Arranged over three floors, the home provides personalised, family-led care. Lakeview Lodge lies to the south of the city of Milton Keynes in a residential neighbourhood with schools, community facilities and shops. It overlooks a lake.
Oakview Lodge was purpose built in January 2018 to a high standard. It comprises a 64 bedroom nursing home integrated in a residential area. Arranged over three floors, the home provides nursing, residential and dementia care. It is located in Welwyn Garden City, approx. 35 km from central London.
All three buildings have a relatively low energy intensity. Two buildings are equipped with solar thermal systems, a third with a heat pump.
They are well accessible with public transport with local bus routes and stations in the area. Every building is situated in a short distance of green spaces, parks, forests or natural reserves.

PRESS RELEASE
1.8.2. Portfolio mix and outlook regarding the withholding tax
The outlook regarding the withholding tax is stated on page 91 of the 2020 universal registration document, published on 09.04.2021.
The 60% threshold, which is relevant in terms of reduced withholding tax, is currently not achieved; the estimated percentage as at 30.06.2021 is approximately 59%. As a reminder, the 60% threshold is to be assessed by calculating the average, over the financial year, of the percentages updated at the end of each quarter, with a view to distributing the dividend relating to that financial year which will take place during the following financial year.
1.8.3. Net results from core activities and dividend per share
Based on the information currently available and the assumptions detailed above, and barring major unforeseen events, Cofinimmo expects to achieve a net result from core activities - group share higher than 7.00 EUR per share for the 2021 financial year, up compared to that of the 2020 financial year (6.85 EUR per share), taking into account the prorata temporis dilutive effects of the capital increases carried out in 2020 and 2021 (leading to a denominator of 29,237,131) and the dilutive impact of the possible conversion of convertible bonds maturing next September (leading to a denominator of 29,660,170). Based on the same data and assumptions, the debt-to-assets ratio would be around 44% as at 31.12.2021. The gross dividend outlook for the 2021 financial year, payable in 2022, can therefore be confirmed at 6.00 EUR per share (i.e. a consolidated pay-out ratio of approximately 85%). This outlook is provided subject to the main risks and uncertainties stated below (see section 1.13).
1.9. Management of financial resources
During the first half-year, Cofinimmo reinforced its financial resources and its balance sheet structure. The financing operations during this first half-year enabled the group to increase bank financing, to maintain its average cost of debt to very low levels. The various operations carried out are stated hereunder.
1.9.1. Capital increases since 01.01.2021
During the first half of the 2021 financial year, Cofinimmo carried out three capital increases (contribution in kind, in cash via accelerated bookbuilding and optional dividend) totalling approximately 350 million EUR.
1.9.1.1. Capital increase in cash via accelerated bookbuilding
On 03.03.2021, Cofinimmo SA/NV launched a capital increase in cash via accelerated bookbuilding (the "ABB") with international institutional investors, within the authorised capital, with cancellation of the preferential subscription right of existing shareholders and without granting an irreducible allocation right to existing shareholders (the "capital increase").
The company successfully completed the ABB. 1,487,603 new shares, which corresponds to approximately 5.5% of the outstanding capital prior to the capital increase, were placed with institutional investors at an issue price of 121.00 EUR per share. The issue price represents a discount of 4.3% compared with the last trading price on 03.03.2021 of 126.40 EUR per share. The gross amount of the capital increase amounts to approximately 180 million EUR.
The net proceeds will finance Cofinimmo's growth in European healthcare real estate, by refinancing investments completed over the past few months and by supporting further investments in the form of acquisitions and developments.
REGULATED INFORMATION Brussels, embargo until 28.07.2021, 5:40 PM CET
The issue, delivery and admission to trading on the Euronext Brussels regulated market of the new shares are expected to take place on 08.03.2021.
1.9.1.2. Capital increase through contribution in kind
On 08.04.2021, Cofinimmo acquired 5 healthcare sites in Belgium through a contribution in kind (see section 1.4.1 of this document). The conventional value of the assets amounts to 103 million EUR (rounded amount). To this end, 937,432 new shares were issued within the framework of the auhorised capital, and have been transferred to the contributors.
The contributors consist of companies controlled by the Care-Ion group, which is a long-term shareholder of Cofinimmo, already holding more than 3% of the company's capital since 2019.
Thanks to this operation, Cofinimmo reinforced its shareholder's equity with 103,295,632.08 EUR. It enables to reduce Cofinimmo's consolidated debt-to-assets ratio by approximately 0.8%. This means a strengthening of the balance sheet structure which can be used to finance further investments.
Following this transaction, Cofinimmo's capital was represented by 29,486,952 shares.
1.9.1.3. Optional dividend
The ordinary general meeting of 12.05.2021 had decided to distribute for the 2020 financial year a gross dividend of 5.80 EUR per share1 .
The board of directors decided to offer shareholders the choice between receiving the dividend payment for the year 2020 in new shares or in cash, or to opt for a combination of both means of payment. The subscription price of one new share was set at 117.74 EUR. The new shares will be entitled to Cofinimmo's results as from 01.01.2021 (first dividend payable in 2021).
Shareholders were invited to communicate their choice between the different payment modalities between 19.05.2021 and 02.06.2021.
A total of 54% of the 2020 dividend coupons were contributed to the capital against new shares. This resulted in the issue of 550,658 new shares for a total amount of 64,834,472.92 EUR. The subscription price of 117.74 EUR per new share was 8.2% below the volume-weighted average stock market price of the share during the subscription period2 .
The remaining dividend pay-out was settled in cash for a net total amount of 54.8 million EUR3 . The payment in cash and/or the delivery of securities were made as from 04.06.2021. The effective day of listing of the new shares is 08.06.2021.
As a result, Cofinimmo's share capital is now represented by 30,037,610 shares.
Funds not paid in cash will be used by the company to finance property acquisitions and renovation projects.
1 After deduction of a 30% withholding tax, this corresponds to a net dividend of 4.06 EUR per share.
2 The volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of the share during the subscription period stood at 128.29 EUR.
3 Amount from which the withholding taxes on dividends relating to reinvested and non-reinvested coupons has been deducted.
PRESS RELEASE
1.9.2. Maturity of convertible bonds as at 15.09.2021
The convertible bonds mature on 15.09.2021. Different scenarios are possible for the holders of convertible bonds until the maturity of the instrument:
-
- As convertible bonds are listed on Euronext Brussels, they can be sold daily on the secondary market.
-
- Bondholders also have the possibility to request the conversion of the bonds into Cofinimmo shares. This conversion request must be made by 06.09.2021 at the latest and only makes economic sense (apart from the tax treatment specific to the holder concerned) if (i) Cofinimmo's stock market price is above the conversion price (130.6754 EUR) and (ii) the holders cannot obtain a better sale price for the bonds in the secondary market in order to capture the residual option value. Cofinimmo will then have the choice (with the exception of the retail/private investors who will in any case receive new shares) to deliver Cofinimmo shares or to pay an equivalent amount in cash.
-
- In the absence of a conversion request by 06.09.2021, Cofinimmo will reimburse the nominal amount of the convertible bonds (146 EUR per bond) as well as the interest for the past year (0.1875%) on 15.09.2021

1.9.4.1. Non-current financial debt
As at 30.06.2021, Cofinimmo's non-current financial debt was 1,491 million EUR. These are detailed hereunder.
1.9.4.1.1. Bond market
- 70 million EUR for one straight bond;
- 55 million EUR of straight green and social bonds part of the Euronext ESG Bonds community, which brings together European issuers of green & social bonds that meet various objective criteria. Cofinimmo is currently one of the few issuers listed in Brussels participating in this committed European community;
- 500 million EUR for a benchmark sustainable bond, part of the Luxembourg Green Exchange community along with many international issuers as well as a Belgian real estate developer and the Walloon Region;
- -3 million EUR mainly for the issue below par of the 500 million EUR bond and for the accrued interest not yet due on bond issues;
- 59 million EUR of long-term commercial paper;
- 1 million EUR corresponding to the discounted value of the minimum coupon of the Mandatory Convertible Bonds issued by Cofinimur I in December 2011.
1.9.4.1.2. Bank facility
- 791 million EUR of committed bilateral and syndicated loans, with an initial term of five to ten years, contracted with approximately ten financial institutions;
- 5 million EUR of financial liabilities linked to a right to use;
- 13 million EUR in rental guarantees received.
1.9.4.2. Current financial debts
As at 30.06.2021, Cofinimmo's current financial debts amounted to 1,221 million EUR. These are detailed hereunder.
1.9.4.2.1. Financial markets
- 223 million EUR of a bond convertible into Cofinimmo shares. These convertible bonds are valued at their fair value on the balance sheet;
- 191 million EUR of non-convertible bonds including accrued interest;
- 790 million EUR of commercial papers with a term of less than one year, of which 321 million EUR with a term of more than six months. The short-term commercial papers issued are fully backed up by availabilities on committed long-term credit lines. Therefore, Cofinimmo benefits from the attractive cost of such a short-term financing programme, while ensuring its refinancing in the event that the issue of new commercial paper becomes more costly or impracticable;
- 10 million EUR of commercial papers initially concluded on a long-term basis and whose residual term is less than one year.
1.9.4.2.2. Bank facilities
- 7 million EUR of other loans.
1.9.5. Availabilities
On 30.06.2021, availabilities on committed credit lines reached 1,583 million EUR. After deduction of the backup of the commercial paper programme, Cofinimmo had at that date 793 million EUR of available lines to finance its activity.
1.9.6. Consolidated debt-to-assets ratio
On 30.06.2021, Cofinimmo met the debt-to-assets ratio test. Its regulatory debt-to-assets ratio (calculated in accordance with the regulations on RRECs as: financial and other debts / total assets) reached 48.2% (compared to 46.1% as at 31.12.2020. As a reminder, the maximum debt-to-assets ratio for RRECs is 65%.
When the loan agreements granted to Cofinimmo refer to a debt covenant, they refer to the regulatory debtto-assets ratio and cap it at 60%.
1.9.7. Weighted average maturity of financial debts
The weighted average maturity of the financial debts went from five to four years between 31.12.2020 and 30.06.2021. This calculation excludes short-term commercial paper maturities, which are fully covered by tranches available on long-term credit lines.
Committed long-term loans (bank credit lines, bonds, commercial paper with a term of more than one year and term loans), for which the total outstanding amount was 3,477 million EUR as at 30.06.2021, will mature on a staggered basis until 2031.

1.9.8. Average cost of debt and hedging of the interest rate
The average cost of debt, including bank margins, was 1.1% for the first half-year of the 2021 financial year, slightly down compared to that of the 2020 financial year (1.3%).
Cofinimmo opts for the partial hedging of its floating-rate debt through the use of interest rate swaps (IRS) and caps. Cofinimmo conducts a policy aimed at securing the interest rates for a proportion of 50% to 100% of the expected debt over a minimum horizon of three years. In this context, the group uses a global approach (macro hedging). It therefore does not individually hedge each of the floating-rate credit lines.
As at 30.06.2021, the breakdown of expected fixed-rate debt, hedged floating-rate debt and unhedged floating-rate debt was presented as shown in the graph below.
REGULATED INFORMATION Brussels, embargo until 28.07.2021, 5:40 PM CET
As at 30.06.2021, the anticipated market interest rate risk was hedged at more than 80%. Until the end of 2025, the interest rate risk is hedged at approximately 70%. Cofinimmo's result nevertheless remains sensitive to fluctuations in market interest rates.
1.9.9. Financial rating
Since 2001, Cofinimmo has been granted a long-term and short-term financial rating from the Standard & Poor's rating agency. On 18.03.2021, Standard & Poor's confirmed the company's BBB rating for the long term (stable outlook) and A-2 for the short term. The group's liquidity has been rated adequate.
1.9.10. Disposal of treasury shares

1.11.1. Initiatives adopted in response to coronavirus COVID-19
Initiatives adopted in response to coronavirus COVID-19 are stated on pages 122-123 of the 2020 universal registration document, published on 09.04.2021.
1.11.2. References, notations and certifications
- - On 19.01.2021, Cofinimmo was one of the three nominees for the Sustainable Growth Award 2020, a prize based exclusively on measurable figures, awarded by Euronext Brussels and Guberna. Cofinimmo received a bronze award, which is proof that it is one of the companies listed on Euronext Brussels that have shown the strongest sustainable growth over the last decade;
- On 02.03.2021, the rating granted by Sustainalytics was updated: it improved, going from 14.9 to 12.6;
- For the first time in the healthcare real estate segment, Cofinimmo has obtained a BREEAM Very Good certification for the new site in Vigo, thanks notably to its performance in the field of mobility, energy and ecology (see section 1.4.5). The group also obtained a BREEAM Excellent certification for the nursing and care home under construction in Oleiros.To date, eight sites have a Good to Excellent BREEAM or HEQ certification and two sites have a Good to Very Good BREEAM In Use certification. A rotation policy is applied for BREEAM or BREEAM-equivalent certification favouring the certification of buildings not certified in the past, which goes beyond a simple extension of the certifications already obtained. The number of buildings that have thus obtained BREEAM or BREEAM-equivalent certification at one time or another amounts to 30.
- On 30.06.2021, Vigeo Eiris published Cofinimmo's new global ESG score, which now stands at 59% (compared to 58% in 2019), which corresponds to a 'Robust' level. This places Cofinimmo in the Top 10 of the best results in the sector. The scores per category are as follows: Environment (72%), Social (51%) and Governance (60%), which is above the sector average.

Since the required quorum was not achieved at this meeting, a second general meeting will be called on 10.05.2021 to convene on 07.06.2021 in order to deliberate on the same agenda, regardless of the number of shareholders present or represented (see press release dated 10.05.2021).

PRESS RELEASE
Comments on the consolidated income statement – Analytical form
Rents (gross rental income) amount to 145 million EUR, compared to 126 million EUR as at 30.06.2020, up 15.4%, thanks to the acquisitions made between these two dates. On a like-for-like basis*, gross rental income increased by 0.8% between 30.06.2020 and 30.06.2021 (see section 1.6.5). Rental income (after gratuities, concessions and termination indemnities – see note 5 of the intermediary financial statements summarised in attachment) amounts to 142 million EUR, compared to 123 million EUR as at 30.06.2020, up 15.5% compared to 2020. After taking writedowns on receivables into account, rental income, net of rental charges amounts to 142 million EUR, compared to 121 million EUR, up 17.3%, higher than the outlook1 announced last April, mainly due to the investments made in Spain and Italy last May.
As for the direct operating costs, the variations between 30.06.2020 and 30.06.2021 are in line with the outlook. The variation in corporate management costs over the same period is also in line with the outlook. As a reminder, in application of IFRIC 21, taxes for which the generating effect has already occurred are recognised at January 1st for the entire year. This is notably the case for withholding taxes, regional taxes and municipal taxes on office space. The operating margin, adjusted following the effect of the application of IFRIC 21, is established at 82.8%.
Financial income are up at 6 million EUR; last year's figure included non-recurring items for one million EUR, whereas the 2021 financial income includes non-recurring items for less than 2 million EUR booked in the 1st half-year, and linked to the contributions in kind of 08.04.2021 (see note 6 of the intermediary financial statements summarised in attachment). Net interest charges (13 million EUR) increased by one million EUR. The average cost of debt decreased to 1.1%, compared with 1.3% as at 30.06.2020. The financial result is in line with the outlook.
The share in the result on net result from core activities of associates and joint ventures exceeds one million EUR (in line with the outlook), mainly due to the investment made by Cofinimmo at the end of 2020 in SCI Foncière CRF, created by the French Red Cross.
Taxes increased and are in line with the outlook.
The group's momentum in terms of investments and financing, coupled with effective management of the existing portfolio, enabled the company to realise a net result from core activities - group share of 103 million EUR as at 30.06.2021, higher than the outlook (compared with the 88 million EUR that were made at 30.06.2020, i.e. a 17% increase), mainly thanks to the investments made. The net result from core activities per share - group share amounts to 3.62 EUR (higher than the outlook, compared to 3.40 EUR as at 30.06.2020, i.e. a 6% increase), taking into account the issue of shares in 2020 and 2021. The average number of shares entitled to the result of the period evolved from 25,934,821 to 28,463,517 between these two dates.
As for the result of financial instruments, the item 'Change in the fair value of financial instruments' amounts to +18 million EUR as at 30.06.2021, compared with -19 million EUR as at 30.06.2020. This variation is explained by the change in the anticipated interest rate curve between these two periods.
As for the result on the portfolio, the gains or losses on disposals of investment properties and other nonfinancial assets is 2 million EUR as at 30.06.2021 (compared to 3 million EUR as at 30.06.2020). The item 'Changes in the fair value of investment properties' is negative as at 30.06.2021 (-11 million EUR vs +8 million EUR as at 30.06.2020) and is partly explained by the effect of changes in the scope (mainly the difference between the price paid, including transfer taxes, and the fair value determined by the independent real estate valuers, excluding transfer taxes, on the acquisitions made in the first half-year). Without the initial effect from the changes in the scope, the changes in the fair value of investment properties is positive (+0.2%)
1 i.e. the quarterly outlook derived from the annual outlook presented in section 11.3 of the press release dated 28.04.2021.
REGULATED INFORMATION Brussels, embargo until 28.07.2021, 5:40 PM CET
for the first six months of 2021. The item 'Other result on the portfolio', is -14 million EUR as at 30.06.2021 and mainly comprises the effect of changes in the scope.
The net result - group share amounts to 95 million EUR (i.e. 3.35 EUR per share) as at 30.06.2021, compared to 60 million EUR (i.e. 2.31 EUR per share) as at 30.06.2020. This fluctuation is mainly due to the increase in the net result from core activities - group share and to the changes in fair value of hedging instruments, partially compensated by the change in fair value of investment properties between the first half-year of 2020 and the first half-year of 2021, these two elements being non-cash items.

PRESS RELEASE
2.7. Notes to the interim summary financial statements
Note 1. General information
Cofinimmo SA/NV ('the company') is a public RREC (regulated real estate company) organised under Belgian law with registered offices at 1200 Brussels (boulevard de la Woluwedal 58).
Cofinimmo SA/NV's interim summary financial statements, which closed on 30.06.2021, cover the Company and its subsidiaries ('the group'). The scope of consolidation has changed since 31.12.2020 (see Note 14).
The interim summary financial statements were closed by the board of directors on 28.07.2021. The statutory auditor Deloitte, Réviseurs d'Entreprises/Bedrijfsrevisoren, represented by Mr Rik Neckebroeck, completed its limited audit and confirmed that it had no reservations with respect to the accounting information presented in the half-year financial report and that it corresponded to the financial statements closed by the board of directors.
Note 2. Significant accounting methods
The consolidated half-year financial statements were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ('IFRS') as executed by the Belgian Royal Decree of 13.07.2014 on Regulated Real Estate Companies and in accordance with the IAS 34 standard on Interim Financial Reporting.
The information included in the interim summary financial statements is not as comprehensive as that in the annual financial statements. Consequently, these interim summary financial statements must be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements.
The accounting principles and methods used to draw up these interim financial statements are identical to those used to prepare the annual financial statements for the 2020 financial year.
Some of the figures in this half-year financial report have been rounded and, consequently, the overall totals in the report may differ slightly from the exact arithmetical sums of the preceding figures.
The preparation of the financial statements requires the company to make significant judgments that affect the application of accounting methods (e.g. determining the classification of leases) and to proceed to a certain number of estimations (including the estimation of provisions). These assumptions are based on the management's experience, on the assistance of third parties (independent real estate valuers) and on various other sources that are believed to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimations. The estimations and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis and adapted accordingly. As part of the preparation of these consolidated financial statements as at 30.06.2021, the following items are specified in connection with the consideration of the coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic:
- As far as investment properties are concerned: in accordance with the Valuation Practice Alert of 02.04.2020 published by the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors ('RICS'), the independent real estate valuers' report mentions that it has been prepared taking into account a 'material valuation uncertainty', as defined by the RICS standards. Notwithstanding, as required by Article 47 of the Law of 12.05.2014 relating to Regulated Real Estate Companies, the independent real estate valuers assess the fair value of the properties. These assessments bind the regulated real estate company when establishing its statutory accounts and its consolidated accounts.
- As far as finance lease receivables are concerned: the group considers that there is no need to modify the assessment parameters with respect to what is mentioned in note 26 of the consolidated financial statements as at 31.12.2020, given the quality of the tenants and the low credit risk associated with financial lease contracts.
REGULATED INFORMATION Brussels, embargo until 28.07.2021, 5:40 PM CET
- As far as trade receivables are concerned: the group considers that the book value of the trade receivables approximates their fair value. For the surplus, the group considers that there is no need to modify the assessment parameters with respect to what is mentioned in note 28 of the consolidated financial statements as at 31.12.2020, given the quality of the tenants and the low credit risk associated with trade receivables net of writedowns.
Note 3. Operational and financial risk management
The risks to which the Group was exposed at 30.06.2021 were substantially the same as those identified and described in the 2020 annual financial report. Risk was managed using the same methods and the same criteria during the half-year as during the previous financial year.
