1. Summary of the activities
The net current result (excluding IAS 39 impact) – Group share reaches €30.6 million at 31.03.2014, against €28.9 million at 31.03.2013. IAS 39 impact included, this result amounts to €6.2 million at 31.03.2014, compared to €28.9 million at 31.03.2013. The result on the portfolio – Group share amounts to €-5.5 million at 31.03.2014, against €-6.5 million at 31.03.2013, and mainly comprises the change in the fair value of investment properties (€-6.6 million). This negative item is the result of the decrease in value of a certain number of office buildings which are/will be subject to a large-scale renovation. The net result – Group share amounts to €0.7 million at 31.03.2014, compared to €22.5 million at 31.03.2013. Per share, these figures stand at €0.04 at 31.03.2014 and €1.32 at 31.03.2013.
The Group invested €8.0 million in renovations and reconversions of offices during the first quarter of 2014. The main expenses are related to the Livingstone II (renovation) and Woluwe 34 (reconversion into apartments) buildings in Brussels. At the time of writing of this press release, respectively 80% and 55% of the apartments of the Woluwe 34 and Livingstone I office buildings under reconversion into residential units have been either reserved or sold. Furthermore, in the beginning of March, Cofinimmo obtained the town-planning and environmental permits required for the redevelopment of the Science/Wetenschap 15-17 building, located in the heart of the Leopold district in Brussels. On the divestment side, the company disposed of the Montoyer 14 office building in Brussels for €13 million gross, above the investment value of the asset as determined by the independent real estate expert at 31.12.2013.
In the healthcare real estate segment, the Group invested €4.1 million in constructions, extensions and renovations during the first quarter of 2014. Three projects were completed, of which two in Belgium and one in the Netherlands. Furthermore, the Group sold the La Gaillardière psychiatric clinic in Vierzon (France) 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 Board of Directors will propose to the Ordinary General Shareholders' Meeting of 14.05.2014 a gross dividend of €6.00 per ordinary share for the financial year 2013, payable in June 2014. This represents a pay-out ratio of 89% of the 2013 profit.

Renovations/reconversions
The Group invested €8.0 million in renovations and reconversions of offices during the first quarter of 2014. The main expenses are related to the Livingstone II and Woluwe 34 buildings.
Delivery of the permits required for the redevelopment of the Science/Wetenschap 15-17 building in Brussels
In the beginning of March, Cofinimmo obtained the town-planning and environmental permits required for the redevelopment of the Science/Wetenschap 15-17 building. This building, located at the corner of the rue de la Science/Wetenschapstraat and the rue Belliard/Belliardstraat in Brussels, in the heart of the Leopold district, will be entirely redeveloped with the ambition of making it a flagship property in Brussels. The new construction will offer 17,700m² of modern, efficient and sustainable office space. 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.
Marketing progress of the apartments of the Woluwe 34 and Livingstone I buildings in Brussels
At the time of writing of this press release, respectively 80% and 55% of the apartments of the Woluwe 34 and Livingstone I office buildings under reconversion into residential units have been either reserved or sold.

Disposal of the La Gaillardière psychiatric clinic in Vierzon (France)
On 27.03.2014, Cofinimmo, via two of its French subsidiaries, sold the La Gaillardière psychiatric clinic in Vierzon (France) 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. As for its office portfolio, Cofinimmo considers on a case-by-case basis the arbitrage of assets of its healthcare real estate portfolio in order to optimise its composition.

Comments on the consolidated income statement – analytical format
The rental income amounts to €48.4 million at 31.03.2014, compared to €48.6 million at 31.03.2013, i.e. a decrease of 0.4%. On a like-for-like basis, the gross rental revenues rose by 0.89% over the last 12 months: the negative effect of departures (-1.27%) and renegotiations (-0.50%) was offset by the positive effect of lease indexations (+1.32%) and new rentals (+1.34%). The occupancy rate remains stable at 95.36%.
Direct and indirect operating costs represent 0.84% of the average value of the assets under management at 31.03.2014, compared to 0.81% at 31.03.2013. The operating result (before result on the portfolio) stands at €46.4 million at 31.03.2014, versus €46.1 million one year before.
The financial result amounts to €-39.4 million at 31.03.2014, compared to €-15.9 million at 31.03.2013. The financial charges come from €-17.3 million at 31.03.2013 to €-16.4 million at 31.03.2014. The average interest rate, including bank margins, decreased from 4.05% at 31.03.20131 to 3.92% at 31.03.2014. The average debt level also decreased (€1,678.0 million at 31.03.2014, versus €1,704.5 million at 31.03.2013).
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 €6.2 million at 31.03.2014, compared to €28.9 million at 31.03.2013. Per share, these figures stand at €0.35 at 31.03.2014 and €1.70 at 31.03.2013.
The result on the portfolio – Group share amounts to €-5.5 million at 31.03.2014 and mainly comprises the change in the fair value of investment properties (€-6.6 million). This negative item is the result of the decrease in value of a certain number of office buildings which are/will be subject to a large-scale renovation in the coming years. On a like-for-like basis, the change in the fair value of investment properties stands at -0.20%.
1 Until the end of the first quarter of 2013, the calculation of the average interest rate on borrowings included the depreciation costs of hedging instruments pertaining to the period. As a result of the restructuration of the hedging scheme during the second quarter of 2013, the method used for the calculation of the average interest rate on borrowings has been reviewed and no longer includes these costs. If this calculation method had been applied at 31.03.2013, the average interest rate on borrowings would have stood at 4.05%, instead of 4.31% as published in the press release dated 02.05.2013.
