1.1. Summary of the activities

The most outstanding event of the first half year of 2014 is without a doubt the sale of the North Galaxy office building, which took place on 12.05.2014 and was coupled to a restructuration of the interest rate hedging instruments.

The ownership of the North Galaxy building, which is let to the Buildings Agency (Belgian Federal State) until 2031, was transferred for €475 million, in the form of a share deal, to ATP, the largest Danish pension fund, and to AXA Belgium. If this transaction resulted in an accounting loss of €24 million, due to registration rights paid, it has had as positive effects a decrease in the forecast of the Group's debt ratio at 31.12.2014 (47.50%, versus 49.05% initially forecasted) and a better allocation of risks in Cofinimmo's real estate portfolio, and, more specifically, in its office portfolio.

The forecast of a net current result (excluding IAS 39) – Group share of €6.61 per share could be maintained thanks to a restructuration of the financial instruments, which will lead to a decrease in future interest charges.

Furthermore, the Cofinimmo's operational, commercial and financial teams have worked actively on the Group's various (re)development projects.

In the office segment, the renovation of the Livingstone II building is drawing to an end. The lease signed with the European Commission enters into force on 14.08.2014. The required permits for the redevelopment of the Science/Wetenschap 15-17 building having been granted in March, a marketing phase has been entered into. The reconversion works of the Woluwe 34 building into apartments are proceeding according to plan. At the time of writing of this press release, 80% of the apartments have been either reserved or sold. The repositioning of the Souverain/Vorst 23-25 site as from 2017 has also received special attention. The residential development of the Tenreuken plot of land can start beforehand.

In the healthcare real estate sector, the construction/renovation/reconversion works of six assets have been delivered, of which three are located in Belgium, one in France and two in the Netherlands. In the Public-Private Partnerships sector, the construction works of the new prison of Leuze-en-Hainaut have been delivered. It marks the beginning of the occupation of the building by the Buildings Agency under a 25-year lease.

On the financing side, Cofinimmo has given the choice to its shareholders to receive the 2013 dividend in cash or in shares. 41.2% of the 2013 dividends have been paid in the form of new ordinary shares, resulting in an €32.8 million gross increase in the company's equity. Two credit lines were also extended during the month of July, for a total amount of €140 million.

The net current result (excluding IAS 39 impact) – Group share reaches €61.0 million at 30.06.2014, against €58.9 million at 30.06.2013.

The net result – Group share amounts to €-61.5 million at 30.06.2014, compared to €36.5 million at 30.06.2013. This loss is the result of the loss realised on the North Galaxy transaction and the recycling under the income statement of the negative fair value of the cancelled interest rate hedging instruments.

1.3. Evolution of the portfolio

a. Sale of the North Galaxy office building for €475 million1

On 12.05.2014 Cofinimmo sold 100% of the shares of the company Galaxy Properties SA/NV, owner of the North Galaxy office building. It is situated in the Brussels North District and is occupied by the Belgian Ministry of Finance. 90% of the shares were acquired by ATP, the largest Danish pension fund, and 10% by Axa Belgium. The value agreed between the parties for the building amounted to €475 million. The sale price of the shares amounted to €7 million. The difference with the conventional value mainly consisted of debts taken over by the buyers. The internal rate of return of the investment in the building during the period it was held by Cofinimmo stands at 14.9% per year, taking into account the specific financing of its acquisition in 2005. The transaction resulted a realised accounting loss for Cofinimmo of €24 million.

The sale of the North Galaxy building has had the following positive consequences:

  • a decrease in the forecast of the debt ratio at 31.12.2014 (47.50%, versus 49.05% initially forecasted);
  • a reduction of the share of office buildings in the total portfolio (41.5% at 30.06.2014, versus 45.6% at 31.12.2013), in line with the announced objective;
  • a better allocation of risks in the office portfolio;
  • a better alignment of the current cash flow and the net current result per share.

The operation does not have an impact on the forecast of the net current result per share (excluding IAS39 impact) of €6.61 for the financial year 2014, as it was combined with a restructuration of the interest rate hedging instruments, which will lead to a decrease in the future interest charges2 .

b. Disposal of the Montoyer 14 office building for €13 million

On 15.04.2014, Cofinimmo closed an agreement concerning the disposal of a 99-year long lease on the Montoyer 14 office building in Brussels. The disposal amounts to €13 million, which is above the investment value as determined by the real estate expert at 31.12.2013. The long-term leaseholder is an investment company acting for several institutional investors.

c. Constructions and renovations

In the first half year of 2014, the Cofinimmo Group invested in construction and renovation works for a total amount of €32.0 million, of which:

  • €19.5 million in the office sector,

  • €11.7 million in the healthcare real estate sector,

  • €0.8 million in the property of distribution networks sector.

The contract has a 15-year duration and is indexed annually. The lease will start on 14.08.2014 and the initial annual rent stands at €2,715,000. The building is currently under renovation. The delivery of the works is scheduled for the beginning of August.

Science/Wetenschap 15-17

In March 2014, Cofinimmo obtained the town-planning and environmental permits required for the redevelopment of the Science/Wetenschap 15-17 office building2 . The building, which is located in the heart of the Leopold District in Brussels, will be completely redeveloped. The new construction will offer 17,700m² of modern, efficient and sustainable office space. The works will start as soon as tenants have been found. The required permits for this redevelopment having been delivered, a time frame can now be guaranteed to the candidate tenants who showed an interest for the building.

Souverain/Vorst 23-25

Following Axa's decision announced in May 2013 to vacate its headquarters located Boulevard du Souverain/Vorstlaan 23-25 in 1170 Brussels at the end of the current lease, i.e. on 02.08.2017, Cofinimmo launched the studies for the repositioning of this site. Several redevelopment scenarios are being looked at, each of them undergoing a thorough technical and financial review. If different options for the redevelopment of the current buildings Souverain/Vorst 23 and 25 are still open, it has already been decided that the Tenreuken plot of land will undergo a residential development as from 2015 which will count approximately 100 apartments, for a total surface area of around 10,000m².

Prison – Leuze-en-Hainaut Construction 28,300m² Q2 2014

The Buildings Agency (Belgian Federal State) notified on 20.06.2014 the issue of the Availability Certificate relating to the new prison in Leuze-en-Hainaut2 . This Certificate formalises the delivery of the construction works of the prison, at the satisfaction of the user, the Belgian Ministry of Justice.

The delivery of the Availability Certificate indicates the beginning of the occupation of the building by the Buildings Agency under a 25-year lease. At the end of the lease, the ownership of the building will be transferred to the Buildings Agency automatically and free of charge. The annual rent due by the Buildings Agency amounts to €12.1 million and is comprised of an investment fee (€7.6 million) and of maintenance and facility management fees (€4.5 million). Indeed, the contract with the Buildings Agency stipulates that Cofinimmo is responsible for the technical maintenance services as well as ancillary services. Cofinimmo subcontracts these services to specialised companies.

Cofinimmo's net investment, after the assignment of 90% of the investment fee receivables due by the Buildings Agency over a period of 25 years, represents €12.4 million and will come under the item "Finance lease receivables" of its balance sheet. Cofinimmo's expected net yield under its income statement stands at 10% per year, after deduction of the annual depreciation of the receivable's principal.

1 Works financed by Bergman Clinics.

d. Disposal of the La Gaillardière psychiatric clinic in Vierzon (FR) for €1.6 million

On 27.03.2014, Cofinimmo, via its French subsidiary Domaine de Vontes, sold the La Gaillardière psychiatric clinic in Vierzon (FR) for a gross amount of €1.6 million, in line with the investment value of the asset as determined by the independent real estate expert at 31.12.2013. The age of the building, its modest size and its operation by a small local player motivated the decision to sell taken by the Group.

e. Acquisition of two agencies of the Cofinimur I distribution network for €0.5 million

During the first half year of 2014, Cofinimmo, via its subsidiary Cofinimur I, acquired two insurance services agencies, located in Bourgoin-Jallieu and Oullins respectively, for a gross total amount of €0.5 million. The two agencies are leased to GMF1 for a fixed nine-year term and offer a gross rental yield of 8.36% for the agency in Bourgoin-Jallieu and 9.40% for the agency in Oullins.

f. Disposal of three cafés/restaurants of the Pubstone distribution network for €1.0 million

During the first six months of 2014, Cofinimmo, via its subsidiary Pubstone, sold three pubs, located in Boom, Bornem and Ans respectively, for a gross total amount of €1.0 million. This amount is above the investment value of the three assets as determined by the independent real estate expert at 31.12.2013.

Since the acquisition of the portfolio of cafés/restaurants from AB InBev at the end of 2007, 24 assets have been sold for a gross amount of €8.0 million, with an average gain of 34.6%.

g. Signing of an agreement with Aspria for the development of a new sports and leisure club2

On 26.06.2014 Cofinimmo concluded an agreement with the Aspria Group to develop a new sports and leisure club on the Solvay Sports site, located avenue du Pérou/Perulaan, Brussels 1000. Aspria Roosevelt SA/NV acquired the property from Solvay SA/NV on 30.06.2014.

Cofinimmo will provide local assistance to Aspria in further preparing and presenting a detailed project of outstanding functional, environmental and aesthetic quality to the Brussels authorities and the local public.

At project completion, the new club will be leased to the Aspria Group for the long term.

1 Subsidiary of the French insurance group Covéa. In December 2011, the Cofinimmo Group had already acquired a portfolio of 263 insurance services agencies, leased to MAAF, another subsidiary of the Covéa Group. See also our press release dated 21.12.2011, available on our website.

The valuation of the portfolio by the independent real estate experts resulted in a change in fair value for the first half of 2014 of €-0.6 million, compared to €-11.7 million for the first half of 2013. The value decrease of the office buildings to be renovated in the short term is compensated by a value increase of the Livingstone II office building, which is let to the European Commission, and by a value increase of the healthcare assets in Belgium and France, resulting mainly from lease indexations.

1.6. Investment programme 2014-2016

Cofinimmo's H2 2014-2016 investment programme totals €175 million, of which:

  • €98 million in the office sector,
  • €67 million in the healthcare real estate sector,
  • €10 million in the portfolio of Pubstone cafés/restaurants.

In € million:

The main expenses in the office sector are related to:

  • the redevelopment of the Science/Wetenschap 15-17 building,
  • the renovation of the Guimard 10-12 building,
  • the redevelopment of the Axa site (Souverain/Vorst 23-25 and Tenreuken plot of land),
  • the reconversion of the Woluwe 34 building into apartments,
  • the renovation in multiple stages of the Tervueren/Tervuren 270-272 building with tenants in the premises,
  • the renovation of the Livingstone II building.

The expenses in the healthcare real estate sector are related to constructions, renovations or extensions of pre-let assets, mainly located in Belgium.

1.7. Sustainable development and management policy

a. Delivery of the prison of Leuze-en-Hainaut

In line with European Directives, public authorities are required to set an example in terms of sustainable development. Buildings built as part of public tenders therefore have a high level of energy performance.

Cofinimmo has contributed its experience in this area during the construction of the prison of Leuzeen-Hainaut. A "Very Good" BREEAM rating is hoped to be achieved, and the building features namely:

  • a type D ventilation system with heat recovery,
  • green roofs,
  • a rainwater harvesting system for the sanitary installations,
  • photovoltaic panels,
  • an energy cogeneration system.

b. Collection of office building energy data

In 2013, Cofinimmo invested in an energy data management software programme to facilitate the identification of potential sources of savings and the impact of investments made with a view to reducing consumption. During the first half year of 2014, the consumption data of the common spaces managed by Cofinimmo Services, as well as the consumption data of the private spaces which are transmitted by various office tenants on a voluntary basis, have been (tele)metered and inserted in the software programme.

c. Green Charter

Cofinimmo systematically proposes a Green Charter to its office tenants. This is a collaboration agreement signed by Cofinimmo, Cofinimmo Services and the tenant, which purpose is to actively promote sustainable development and encourage all parties to reduce the environmental impact of the rented property.

Since its launch in 2012, 19 tenants have signed the charter. Together, they represent ±17.7% of all the tenants of Cofinimmo's office portfolio (115,700m²).

1.8. Management of financial resources

a. Financing

Strengthening of shareholders' equity for €32.8 million through the distribution of dividends in shares

Shareholders' equity was increased by €32.8 million, further to a decision by the shareholders of Cofinimmo to reinvest 41.2% of their 2013 dividends in new ordinary shares. The subscription price of the new ordinary shares was €85.501 .

As a reminder, at 30.06.2014, the Cofinimmo share price stood at €91.01 and its intrinsic value, in fair value, at €85.17.

b. Debt

Debt structure

At 30.06.2014, the Cofinimmo Group consolidated borrowings amounted to €1,623.6 million. They were comprised of:

These bond issues are booked at market value on the balance sheet.

Following the 2013 dividend distribution of €6.00 per ordinary share, the rights of the holders of convertible bonds issued in 2013 have been adjusted2 . Hence, as of 06.06.2014 (settlement date of the 2013 dividend), the conversion price of these bonds stands at €104.231.

  • − €183.0 million of commercial papers, including €168.0 million for an initial period of under one year and €15.0 million for an initial period of over three years;
  • − €655.2 million in bilateral medium- and long-term loans, with an initial term of three to 10 years;
  • − €6.9 million in other loans and advances (account debits).
  • − €4.0 million in minimum coupons of the mandatory convertible bonds issued by Cofinimur I in December 2011;

At 30.06.2014, the Cofinimmo Group current consolidated borrowings amounted to €519.5 million, including:

  • − €178.0 million in commercial papers with a term of less than one year;
  • − €341.1 million in maturing debts, concerning two bonds and bank loans for respectively €201.1 million and €140.0 million;
  • − €0.4 million in other loans and advances (account debits).

The short-term borrowings (€519.5 million) are fully covered by the undrawn portions of long-term confirmed credit facilities totalling €775.6 million at 30.06.2014. The latter also cover the financing needs until the end of 2015.

Repayment schedule of the long-term financial commitments1 of €2,189.5 million (in € million)

The long-term financial commitments, with a total outstanding amount of €2,189.5 million at 30.06.2014, mature in a staggered manner up to 2020. 100% of all loan instalments maturing in 2014 and 2015 are refinanced.

1 This schedule takes into account the capital from financial commitments and excludes payment of interest (generally on a monthly or quarterly basis) as well as projected cash flows from derivatives.

The average maturity of Cofinimmo's debt (excluding short-term commercial papers, which are fully covered by the undrawn portions of long-term credit facilities) comes from 3.8 years at 31.12.2013 to 3.9 years at 30.06.2014.

The average interest rate on Cofinimmo's debt, including bank margins, stands at 3.72% for the first half year of 2014.

Consolidated debt ratio

At 30.06.2014, Cofinimmo is in compliance with the limits of the financial debt ratios. Cofinimmo's regulatory debt ratio1 is 48.88% (vs. 48.87% at 31.12.2013) and is coherent with the moderate risk profile of assets and cash flow, and in particular with the long residual term of the leases agreed. As a reminder, the statutory maximum debt ratio for Sicafis/Bevaks is 65%. The Loan-to-Value financial debt ratio2 stands at 48.91% at 30.06.2014.

Cofinimmo's credit agreements, when they refer to a debt ceiling, refer to the legal debt ratio, with a maximum of 60%.

Interest rate hedging

Given the continuing very low interest rates, Cofinimmo took the opportunity of the sale of the North Galaxy office building to cancel interest rate hedging positions3 .

The cancelled positions were sold FLOOR options with a strike at 3% for a notional amount of €600 million which extended until (and including) 2017. This operation gave rise to an outlay of €56 million but will lead to a significant decrease in interest charges in the years to come. The negative value of the cancelled positions had already been recorded under shareholders' equity, which means that this cancellation did not have any effect on the intrinsic value of the Cofinimmo share.

In order to prevent that a future increase of interest rates would compromise the decrease of future interest charges, Cofinimmo also contracted new hedges through Interest Rate Swaps, over the same period and for a notional amount of €400 million. The average rate of these new IRS stands at 0.51%4 .

1 Legal ratio calculated in accordance with the legislation regarding Sicafis/Bevaks as: Financial and other debts / total assets

2 Ratio calculated as: Net financial debt divided by total of the portfolio's fair value and finance lease receivables.

3 See also our press release dated 13.05.2014, available on our website.

4 The bank margins have to be added to this rate to calculate the effective cost of debt.

Bank margins should be added to the above rates.

Assuming constant gearing, more than 80% of the interest rate risk2 is covered until the end of 2019. The sensitivity of Cofinimmo's result to interest rate fluctuations is explained in the section " Risk Management".

Financial rating

In March 2014, the rating agency Standard & Poor's confirmed Cofinimmo's financial rating of BBB- for the long-term debt and A-3 for the short-term debt.

b. 2013 dividends

The Board of Directors gave the holders of both ordinary and preference shares the option of payment of the 2013 dividend in new ordinary shares or in cash or a combination of the two1 .

At the end of the offer period, a total of 41.2% of the dividend coupons had been re-contributed to the capital in return for new shares2 . This resulted in the issue of 383,224 new ordinary shares, at a subscription price of €85.50, for a total amount of €32.8 million. The subscription price was equal to the closing price of the existing share on Euronext Brussels on the day before the announcement of subscription opening, minus the detached 2013 dividend coupon.

The new ordinary shares are entitled to share in Cofinimmo's results as from 01.01.2014 (first dividend payable in June 2015).

c. 2014 dividends

Barring the occurrence of unforeseen events, the 2014 dividend forecast published in the 2013 Annual Financial Report is maintained. It amounts to €5.50 gross (€4.125 net) per ordinary share and €6.37 gross (€4.7775 net) per preference share. Dividends are subject to a 25% withholding tax.

1.10. Events after 30.06.2014

a. Sale of the EHPAD1 Villa Saint-Dominique in Rouen (FR) for €3.8 million

On 04.07.2014, Cofinimmo, via its French subsidiary SCI Privatel Investissement, sold the EHPAD Villa Saint-Dominique in Rouen (FR) for a gross amount of €3.8 million, in line with the investment value of the asset as determined by the independent real estate expert at 31.12.2013. The asset had been vacated by Korian at the end of its lease on 30.06.2013.

b. Acquisition of an SSR2 clinic to be renovated and extended in Néville (FR) for €5.2 million

On 31.07.2014, Cofinimmo acquired the SSR clinic Caux du Littoral in Néville (FR). The existing site will be renovated and extended by July 2015. At the delivery of the works, the 12-year triple net lease (maintenance, including structural, borne by the lessee) signed with the operator Handra will enter into force.

The acquisition price of the land and the existing constructions and the budget for the renovation and extension works amount to a total of €5.2 million, VAT excluded. Half of this amount has been paid by Cofinimmo on 31.07.2014. The balance will be paid as the works are completed. The expected initial rental yield is 7.5%.

Handra is a private French Group which counts 150 employees. The Group operates 158 beds over four EHPAD or SSR sites located in France. It concentrates on smaller structures (25 to 60 beds) to be renovated, located in wealthy areas.

c. Extension of two credit lines for a total amount of €140 million

During the month of July, two credit lines maturing on 31.08.2014 were extended for five years. The amount of these credit lines stands at €100 million and €40 million respectively.

1 Etablissement d'Hébergement pour Personnes Agées Dépendantes. In France, this is the most widespread form of institution for the elderly.

2 Soins de Suite et de Réadaptation. In France, clinic providing rehabilitation care to patients following a hospital stay for a health complaint or surgery.

1.11. Risk management

Below is an overview of the most significant risks to which Cofinimmo is exposed in its activities. Reference is made to pages 2 to 7 of the 2013 Annual Financial Report for a detailed account of the company's risk management strategy.

Risks associated with the economic climate

The activities of Cofinimmo are partially linked to the general economic climate. A decline in economic growth indirectly influences the occupancy rate of offices in the private sector as well as rents. It can also increase the risk of default by tenants. The impact on Cofinimmo's bottom line is, however, mitigated by the duration of its lease agreements (at 30.06.2014, the average duration until the first break option is 10.9 years), the diversification of its tenant portfolio (402 clients), and the fact that over 23% of its office tenants are from the public sector. Thanks to its diversification into less volatile sectors such as healthcare real estate and sale and leaseback operations with AB InBev and MAAF, Cofinimmo's portfolio is less exposed to the risks posed by the general economic climate.

Risk of vacancy

For about six years, the Brussels office market has been suffering from a significant vacancy rate. At 30.06.2014, the vacancy rate in Brussels stood at 10.54% (source: CBRE). For Cofinimmo's Brussels office portfolio, the vacancy rate was 10.65% at 30.06.2014. Cofinimmo actively manages its client base in order to minimise vacancies and tenant turnover in the office segment. An internal property management team is responsible for swiftly resolving tenant complaints. The commercial team maintains regular contacts with existing tenants and actively seeks new ones.

The healthcare real estate assets are let on a long-term basis, with an initial lease term of 27 years in Belgium, 12 years in France and 15 years in the Netherlands. At 30.06.2014, the average remaining lease term was 21.7 years in Belgium, 6.7 years in France and 13.8 years in the Netherlands.

At 30.06.2014, 99.70% of the cafés/restaurants portfolio is let to AB InBev with a minimum average residual term of 16.3 years. Furthermore, 99.32% of the insurance services agencies are leased to MAAF for an average residual term of 7.3 years.

Risk of tenant insolvency

Cofinimmo is exposed to the risk of default by its tenants. At 30.06.2014, the five most important clients accounted for 52.2% of its rental income. Among the three most important office tenants, two are from the public sector.

An advance deposit or bank guarantee corresponding to six months' rent is generally requested from private sector tenants.

Risks associated with investment and development

Cofinimmo engages in limited development activity for its own account, the maximum being set at 10% of the fair value of its portfolio.

When considering investments, Cofinimmo makes certain estimates as to economic, market and other conditions, including estimates relating to the value or potential value of a property and the potential return on investment. These estimates may prove to be incorrect, rendering Cofinimmo's investment strategy inappropriate with consequent negative effects for Cofinimmo's business, operational results, financial conditions and prospects.

Before acquiring a building, Cofinimmo performs an internal assessment in order to determine a price for the building with a view to long-term management. Moreover, an independent expert assesses each acquisition or sale of property.

Risks associated with deterioration and large-scale works

Cofinimmo maintains and regularly renovates its properties in order to ensure that they remain attractive to tenants. The current trend towards sustainable, energy-efficient buildings, both in terms of construction and use, may require additional investments.

Risks associated with fluctuations in the fair value of real estate

The properties are valued quarterly by independent property experts. A fluctuation of 1% in the value of the portfolio can have an impact of around €31.5 million on the company's net result and of €1.75 on the net asset value per share. It can also have an impact of approximately 0.44% on the debt ratio.

Liquidity and financing risks

A diversification of financing sources, a stable and varied banking pool with good financial ratings (Cofinimmo has nine banking partners) and staggered loan maturity dates favour appropriate financial conditions.

Cofinimmo's borrowing capacity is limited by the maximum debt ratio authorised by the legislation on Sicafis/Bevaks (65%) and by the ceiling of this ratio agreed with banks in credit documents (60%). At 30.06.2014, the consolidated debt ratio, calculated according to the Sicafi/Bevak regime, amounts to 48.88%.

Cofinimmo has a medium-term financial plan which is completely revised in the spring of each year and updated during the year following every significant property acquisition or sale. The purpose of this type of plan is namely to position the consolidated debt ratio of Cofinimmo at an appropriate level, based on an assessment by the Board of Directors of the risks inherent in the company's portfolios of assets and leases1 .

1 See Article 54 of the Royal Decree of 07.12.2010.

Interest rate risk

Cofinimmo contracts an important portion of its financial debts at a variable (floating) interest rate. Derivatives are used to hedge financing costs against rate increases and to ensure that interest rates remain within a certain margin, between a maximum and minimum rate. These instruments include specifically Interest Rate Swaps and CAP options, partially financed by FLOOR options.

By using existing hedging mechanisms and assuming a constant level of debt, a 0.5% rise or fall in the interest rate should not significantly affect financing expenses of the current year.

The interest-rate derivatives are marked to market at the end of each quarter. Future rate fluctuations thus impact the net asset value and the result of the period.

1.12. Corporate Governance

Cofinimmo sees that it maintains high standards of corporate governance and assesses its methods against the principles, practices and requirements in this field. The practice of corporate governance by Cofinimmo is entirely in line with the Belgian Corporate Governance Code1 .

A detailed description of the various Committees, their respective roles and members appears in the chapter entitled "Corporate Governance Statement" of the 2013 Annual Financial Report.

The General Meeting of 14.05.2014 appointed Mr. Christophe Demain as Director representing the shareholder Belfius Insurance, with immediate effect and until the end of the Ordinary General Meeting to be held in 2016. The composition of the Board of Directors is given on page 62 of this Report.

The General Meeting of 14.05.2014 accepted the proposal to renew the mandate of the SC s.f.d. SCRL Deloitte Company Auditors, represented by Mr. Frank Verhaegen, statutory auditor, having its registered office at 1831 Diegem, Berkenlaan 8B, until the end of the Ordinary General Meeting to be held in 2017. Moreover, it accepted the proposal to set the Statutory Auditor's annual fee at €116,700, without VAT and disbursements, to be indexed annually based on the health index.

1.13. New "Regulated Real Estate Company" status

Following the transposition of the European « Alternative Investment Fund Managers » (AIFM) Directive into Belgian law, the Sicafis/Bevaks are subject to new obligations.

Within this context, the Belgian Parliament approved a law that introduces the status of Regulated Real Estate Company ("Société Immobilière Réglementée" or SIR/"Gereglementeerde VastgoedVennootschap" or GVV) and offers the existing Sicafis/Bevaks the possibility to adopt this new status. This law was laid down in an Implementing Royal Decree, which was published in the Belgian Official Gazette of 16.07.2014.

The Sicafis/Bevaks therefore have to make a choice within four months following the publication of the said Royal Decree in the Belgian Official Gazette: either seeking approval as AIF and investment trust, or proposing their shareholders to adopt the status of Regulated Real Estate Company (SIR/GVV) and request the approval as such.

Cofinimmo will make a recommendation to its shareholders with regard to this matter in the coming weeks.

Comments on the consolidated income statement – Analytical form

The net rental income amounts to €97.4 million at 30.06.2014, compared to €97.6 million at 30.06.2013. On a like-for-like basis, the gross rental revenues rose by 1.05% over the last 12 months: the negative effect of departures (-1.15%) and renegotiations (-0.42%) was offset by the positive effect of lease indexations (+1.34%) and new lettings (+1.28%). The item "Writeback of lease payments sold and discounted" comes from €12.6 million at 30.06.2013 to €11.3 million at 30.06.2014, mainly as a result of the exit of the North Galaxy office building on 12.05.2014. The property result amounts to €106.4 million at 30.06.2014, compared to €108.7 million at 30.06.2013, i.e. a 2.1% decrease.

Direct and indirect operating costs represent 0.90% of the average value of the assets under management at 30.06.2014, compared to 0.82% at 30.06.2013. The operating result (before result on the portfolio) stands at €90.3 million at 30.06.2014, versus €93.0 million one year before.

The financial result (excluding IAS 39 impact) amounts to €-27.7 million at 30.06.2014, compared to €-31.5 million at 30.06.2013. The average interest rate, including bank margins1 , decreased from 3.97% at 30.06.2013 to 3.72% at 30.06.2014, namely thanks to the cancellation of FLOOR options on 12.05.2014. The average debt level also decreased (€1,632.0 million at 30.06.2014, versus €1,669.9 million at 30.06.2013). The item "Revaluation of derivative financial instruments" stands at €-100.9 million at 30.06.2014, and namely includes the costs related to the restructuration of the interest rate hedging instruments for €56 million2 .

Taxes include the corporate income tax due by subsidiaries which do not benefit from the Sicafi/Bevak, SIIC or FBI tax regime and the tax on non-deductible costs of a Sicafi/Bevak (primarily the office tax in the Brussels Capital Region).

The net current result - Group share amounts to €-39.7 million at 30.06.2014, compared to €49.2 million at 30.06.2013. Per share, it represents €-2.21 at 30.06.2014 and €2.80 at 30.06.2013.

Within the result on the portfolio, the realised gains or losses on disposals of investment properties and other non-financial assets amounts to €-22.2 million at 30.06.2014 and mainly comprises the €24 million loss realised on the sale of the North Galaxy office building. The change in the fair value of investment properties comes from €-11.7 million at 30.06.2013 to €-0.6 million at 30.06.2014. The value decrease of the office buildings to be renovated in the short term is compensated namely by a value increase of the Livingstone II office building, following the announcement of the letting to the European Commission, and by a value increase of the healthcare assets in Belgium and France, resulting mainly from lease indexations. On a like-for-like basis, the fair value of investment properties is stable since 31.12.2013 (- 0.02%).

The net result - Group share amounts to €-61.5 million at 30.06.2014, compared to €36.5 million at 30.06.2013. Per share, it represents €-3.42 at 30.06.2014 and €2.08 at 30.06.2013.

Comments on the consolidated balance sheet

The fair value of the property portfolio1 , as appears from the consolidated balance sheet, by application of IAS 40, is obtained by deducting transaction costs from the investment value. At 30.06.2014, the fair value stands at €3,148.3 million, compared to €3,347.0 million at 31.12.2013.

The investment value of the property portfolio1 , as established by the independent real estate experts, is €3,277.8 million at 30.06.2014, compared with €3,478.9 million at 31.12.2013.

2.7. Notes to the consolidated accounts

Note 1. General information

Cofinimmo SA/NV (the "Company") is a public Sicafi/Bevak (Belgian REIT) organised under Belgian law with its registered office at Boulevard de la Woluwe 58, 1200 Brussels.

The half year consolidated financial statements of Cofinimmo SA for the period which ended on 30.06.2014 cover the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as "the Group"). The scope of consolidation has been altered since 31.12.2013 (see Note 14).

The half year consolidated financial statements were drawn up by the Board of Directors on 31.07.2014. The auditor Deloitte, company auditors, represented by Mr. Frank Verhaegen, concluded its limited audit and confirmed that the accounting information contained in this half year report does not call for any reservations and corresponds with the financial statements adopted by the Board of Directors.

Note 2. Significant accounting methods

The half year consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, as adopted by the European Union, and IAS 34 on Interim Financial Reporting.

The accounting methods are identical to those mentioned in the 2013 Annual Financial Report.

Some figures in this half year report have been rounded up and, consequently, the overall totals in this report may differ slightly from the exact sum of the preceding figures.

Note 3. Operational and financial risk management

At 30.06.2014, the Group is facing substantially the same risks as those identified and mentioned in the 2013 Annual Financial Report. Risk management during the first half of 2014 was done using the same means and in accordance with the same criteria as those applied the previous year.

Categories of financial instruments

The fair value is estimated:

  • at book value for trade receivables and debts and variable loans and debts;
  • based on the future cash flows discounted at adapted market rates for finance lease receivables;
  • by reference to a quoted price on an active market for listed bonds (retail bonds and private placements).

Financial instruments designated as being at fair value through the net result

The financial instruments that are valued, subsequent to initial recognition, at fair value on the balance sheet, are grouped into three levels (1 to 3), based on the degree to which the fair value is observable:

  • The level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for similar assets or liabilities;
  • The level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from data other than quoted prices included within level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices);
  • The level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include data for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable data).

Level 1

The convertible bonds issued by Cofinimmo are level 1.

Level 2

The financial assets and liabilities as well as the financial derivatives owned at fair value by Cofinimmo are all level 2, except for the convertible bonds issued by Cofinimmo, which are level 1. Their fair value is established as follows:

  • Fair value of financial assets and liabilities The fair value of financial assets and liabilities with standard terms and conditions and negotiated on active and liquid markets is established based on stock market prices.
  • Fair value of participations in associated companies and joint ventures The fair value is determined based on the share in the associated company of which all the assets are valued at their fair value.
  • Fair value of hedging derivative financial instruments The fair value of derivative instruments is calculated based on stock market prices. When such prices are not available, analyses of discounted cash flows based on the applicable yield curve with respect to the duration of the instruments are used in the case of non-optional derivatives, and option evaluation models are used in the case of optional derivatives. Interest rate swaps are evaluated according to the discounted value of estimated and discounted cash flows in accordance with the applicable yield curves obtained on the basis of the market interest rates.

Level 3

Cofinimmo currently does not hold any level 3 financial instruments.

There were no asset transfers between the various fair value categories.

A description of the financial risks can be found in section 1.11. of this Half Year Financial Report.

Interest rate hedging

During the second quarter of 2014, Cofinimmo restructured its interest rate hedging scheme. The review of the hedging plan of financial risks was done following the sale of the North Galaxy office building. Subsequent this sale, various credit lines were reimbursed. The future debt as forecasted in the financial plan also decreased.

The following operations on FLOOR and CAP options were concluded:

CAP

  • CAP options related to the period 2014-2015 were cancelled for a total notional amount of €800 million, bringing the notional amount down from €1,200 million to €400 million.
  • CAP options related to the period 2016-2017 were cancelled for a total notional amount of €600 million, bringing the notional amount down from €1,000 million to €400 million.

FLOOR

  • FLOOR options relative to the period 2014-2017 were cancelled for a total notional amount of €600 million, bringing down the notional amount from €1,000 million to €400 million.

Interest Rate Swaps (IRS)

After these cancellations of hedging instruments, Cofinimmo fixed part of its floating debt with swaps (floating to fix) by signing four contracts (with four different banks) covering the period May 2014 – January 2018 for a total notional amount of €400 million, at a fixed rate of 0.51%.

Consolidation criteria

The consolidation criteria given in the 2013 Annual Financial Report have not been changed and are still applied by the Cofinimmo Group.

Note 15. Transactions between related parties

In April 2014, Cofinimmo concluded with InBev Belgium SA/NV an agreement related to the transfer of 230 shares of the company Pubstone Group SA/NV, in order to simplify the Group structure1 .

Re; Valuation as of 30 .Tune 2014

Context

We hâve been engagea by Cofinimmo to value its real estate assets as of 30 June 2014 with a view to finalising its financial statements at that date.

DTZ Winssinger et Associates (DTZ), PricewaterhouseCoopers Entreprise Advisory cvba/scrl (PwC) and Jones Lang Lasalle sprl/bvba hâve each separately valued a part of the portfolio of offices and other' properties.

DTZ Winssinger and PwC hâve each separately valued part of the portfolio of nursing homes in Belgium.

DTZ Eurexi and Jones Lang LaSalle France hâve each separately valued part of the portfolio of nursing homes and other care facilities in France.

The portfolio of clinics in The Netherlands has been valued by DTZ Zadelhof.

The portfolios of pubs in Belgium and the Netherlands hâve been valued by DTZ Winssinger and DTZ Zadelhof, respectively.

The portfolio of Insurance agencies in France has been valued by DTZ Eurexi.

DTZ, PwC and JLL hâve in-depth knowledge of the real estate markets in which Cofinimmo is active and hâve the necessary, recognised professional qualifications to perform this assessment. In conducting this assessment, they hâve acted with complète independence.

As is customary, our assignment has been carried out on the basis of information provided by Cofinimmo regarding tenancy schedules, charges and taxes borne by the landlord, works to be carried out and ail other factors that could affect property values. We assume that the information provided is complète and accurate.

Other properties: semi-industrial, retail, leisure and residential.

Our valuation reports do not in any way constitute an assessment of the structural or technical quality of the buildings or an in-depth analysis of their energy efficiency or of the potential présence of harmful substances. This information is well known to Cofinimmo, which manages its properties in a professional way and performs technical and légal due diligence before acquiring each property.

Opinion

We confirm that our valuation has been done in accordance with national and international market practices and standards (International Valuation Standards issued by the International Valuation Standards Council and included in RICS Valuation - Professional Standards January 2014 , the Red Book of the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors.

The Investment value (in the context of this valuation) is defined as the amount most likely to be obtained at normal conditions of sale between willing and well-informed parties, inclusive of transactions costs (mainly transfer taxes) to be paid by the acquirer. It does not reflect the costs of future investments that could improve the property or the benefits associated with such costs.

Valuation methodology

The valuation methodology adopted is mainly based on three methods:

The ERV (Estimated Reniai Value) Capitalisation Approach consists in capitalizing the estimated rental value (ERV) of the property using a market yield in Une with the investment market and adjusting the then obtained value for the différence between the effective passing rent and the ERV during the period of the in-place lease. The sélection of the appropriate yield is based on an analysis of comparable market data, including published industry information. The yield rate corresponds to the yield expected by potential investors at the date of the valuation.

The Discounted Cash Flow Approach requires the assessment of the net rental income generated by the property on a yearly basis during an exphcit forecasted period. The projected period varies generally between 10 to 18 years. At the end of this period, an exit value is calculated, taking into account the anticipated rent and yield at term horizon.

The Residual Valuation Approach is used to value land and old heavily to be refurbished buildings. It consists in determining the size and type of project that can be built/refiirbished according to urbanistic law and régulations; to then estimate the value of the end project and the costs that need to be incurred to realize such project. The différence between the two estimâtes is the residual value.

Transaction Costs

In theory, the disposai of properties is subject to a transfer tax charged by the Government and paid by the acquirer, which represent substantially ail transaction costs. For properties situated in Belgium, the amount of this tax mainly dépends on the mode of transfer, the capacity in which the acquirer acts and the property's location. The first two variables, and therefore the amount of tax payable, are only known

once the sale is contracted. Based on a study from independent real estate experts dated 8 February 2006 and periodically reviewed, the "average" transaction cost for properties over EUR 2,500,000 is assessed at 2.5%.

The fair value (as defined under IFRS 13 and by the BEAMA's (Belgian Asset Managers Association) press release of 8 February 2006) for properties over EUR 2,500,000 can therefore be obtained by deducting 2.5% of "average" transaction cost from their investment value. This 2.5% figure will be reviewed periodically and adjusted if on the institutional investment transaction market a change of at least +/- 0.5% in the effectively "average" transaction cost is observed.

For properties with an investment value under 2,500,000 transfer taxes of 10% or 12.5% hâve been subtracted, depending on the région of Belgium where they are situated.

The transfer taxes on properties in France and the Netherlands hâve been deducted in full from their investment values to obtain their fair values.

Assets subject to a sale ofreceivables

Cofinimmo is owner of several buildings of which the rents hâve been sold in the past to a third party. The valuers hâve valued those properties as freehold (before sale of receivables). At the request of Cofinimmo , the values mentioned below represent for thèse buildings the freehold value net of the rents still due (residual value), as calculated by Cofinimmo. This calculation by Cofinimmo has not been analysed in depth by the valuers. In the forthcoming quarters, the residual value will evolve in such a way as to be, at the maturity of the sale of the receivables, équivalent to the freehold value.

Investment value and sale value (fair value)

Taking into account the three opinions, the investment value (transaction costs not deducted) of Cofmimmo's total real estate portfolio as of 30 June 2014 is estimated at EUR 3.277.849.000.

Taking into account the three opinions, the fair value, after the déduction of the "transaction" transfer costs, of Cofînimmo's total real estate portfolio as of 30 June 2014, corresponding to the fair investment value under lAS/IFRS, is estimated at EUR 3.148.300.000.

On this basis, the yield on rent, received or contracted, including from assets that form the object of an assignment of receivables, but excluding projects, land and buildings undergoing refurbishment, and after the apphcation of imputed rent to the premises occupied by Cofinimmo, amounts to 6,62% of the investment value.

If the properties were to be let in full, the yield would increase to 7,00%.

Investment properties hâve an occupancy rate of 94,59%.

The contractually passing rent and the estimated rental value on the empty spaces (excluding projects, buildings undergoing refurbishment and assets that form the object of an assignment of receivables) for let space plus the estimated rental value for vacant space is 3,98% above the estimated fair rental value for the whole portfolio at this date. This différence results mainly from the inflation indexation of contractual rents since the inception of the in-place leases.
