PRESS RELEASE
Alternative Performance Measures (APM)
Since many years, Cofinimmo uses in its financial communication Alternative Performance Measures (APM) according to the guidelines recently issued by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA). Some of these APM are recommended by the European Public Real Estate Association (EPRA) and others have been defined by the industry or by Cofinimmo in order to provide readers with a better understanding of its results and performance. The APM used in this press release are identified with an asterisk (*). The performance indicators which are defined by IFRS standards or by Law are not considered as APM, neither are those which are not based on the consolidated income statement or the balance sheet.
The APM terms "Net current result", "Net current result (excluding IAS 39 impact)", "Revaluation of financial instruments (IAS 39)" and "Result on the portfolio" will be modified in the future to comply with the ESMA guidelines. A global position of the industry is being studied to this end.
The definitions of the EPRA performance indicators and other APM used by Cofinimmo are available on our website (www.cofinimmo.com/investors/reports-and-presentations/). The details of the APM calculations are attached to this press release (appendices 2 and 3).

▪ Acquisition of the Oranjeplein medical office building located in Goirle1
On 01.08.2016, the Cofinimmo Group acquired the Oranjeplein medical office building located in Goirle, near Tilburg. The investment totalled 4.5 million EUR. The asset, comprising 1,844 m², was renovated in 2013. The building is fully occupied by various medical and paramedical professionals (physicians, dentists, physiotherapists, psychotherapists, pharmacists). Each healthcare professional is a tenant of the Cofinimmo Group under a 'double net' lease, indexed annually. The weighted average residual lease length is seven years. The initial gross rental yield amounts to 7.4 %. Cofinimmo signed an exclusive cooperation agreement with Maron Healthcare, a local company, for the commercial management of the asset. This specialised manager is tasked with maintaining the occupancy rate at an optimal level over the long term, with a particular focus on ensuring the complementarity of the professions present in the centre.
▪ Delivery of the construction work of the Amphia hospital parking lot located in Breda
Construction of the new parking lot of Amphia, the main hospital in the Breda region, was completed during the third quarter. The lot offers over 900 parking spaces for hospital patients and visitors. Its construction is part of a larger redevelopment scheme for the entire hospital site. The total budget for the work amounted to 9.7 million EUR. Cofinimmo leases the asset to the operator Stichting Amphia under a 30-year 'double net' lease. The rent will be indexed annually based on the consumer price index. The initial rental yield is 7.5 %.

Cofinimmo started reconversion work on the Woluwe 106-108 building (Decentralised Brussels) into a nursing and care home during the month of August, after it received the permits required to redevelop the site. As a reminder, this former 7,000 m² office building will be converted into a 151 bed nursing and care home. On delivery of the work, planned for the fourth quarter of 2017, the facility will be leased to the operator Vivalto Home under a 27-year 'triple net' lease. Rents will be indexed annually based on the consumer price index. The total cost of the work is estimated at 13 million EUR and the project's 'yield on cost', which takes into account the fair value of the building at the start of work, is 5.9 %.

The initial gross rental yield of the transaction is 7.5 %.
▪ Acquisition of the extensions of the Les Lubérons and William Harvey healthcare facilities located respectively in Le Puy Sainte Réparade and Saint Martin d'Aubigny

2.2.Offices: investments with value creation potential
▪ Acquisition of a portfolio of four office buildings located in Brussels1
On 05.08.2016, Cofinimmo acquired the shares of four companies, each owner of an office building. The acquired property portfolio consists of three buildings located in the heart of the European District in Brussels (Loi/Wet 34, Montoyer 10 and Science/Wetenschap 41) and a fourth building located in Decentralised Brussels (Souverain/Vorst 280). The assets have an average surface area of 5,700 m² and an average occupancy rate of 88 %. The weighted average residual lease length is 3.3 years until the first break option (5.8 years until the end of the leases). The transaction valued the buildings at 57.9 million EUR, an amount in line with the investment value assigned by the independent real estate expert. The potential for value creation via active marketing and suitable upgrades is significant. The gross rental yield is currently 6.4 % and could reach 7.4 % if the buildings are fully occupied.

2.3. Issue of new convertible bonds and buyback of existing convertible bonds1
In September, Cofinimmo bought back convertible bonds issued in 2013 and concurrently issued new convertible bonds. This transaction enabled the company to reduce its financing costs, extend the average maturity of its debt and reduce potential dilution given the lower number of shares underlying the new bonds.
▪ Buyback of convertible bonds issued in 2013
Cofinimmo bought back 173.8 million EUR accounting for approximately 91.08 %2 of the nominal amount of the convertible bonds issued in 2013 (2018 maturity, 2.0 % coupon). The cash purchase price was set at 131.43 EUR, that is, the closing price of the existing bonds on the day preceding the launch of the transaction, adjusted for certain technical elements, plus a premium of 1.50 %. The convertible bonds maturing in 2018 bought back or already held by Cofinimmo were cancelled after the settlement of the transaction.
▪ Issue of new convertible bonds
The non-guaranteed and unsubordinated convertible bonds issued by Cofinimmo have a five-year maturity and a 0.1875 % coupon, payable annually in arrears. The initial conversion price was set at 146.00 EUR, implying a premium of 27.41 % compared to a reference price equal to the volumeweighted average price of the company's ordinary shares on Euronext Brussels on the day the transaction was launched. The nominal value of each bond is equal to the initial conversion price. The total amount of the offer was 219.3 million EUR.

Notes on the consolidated income statement – Analytical form
Net rental income was 151.4 million EUR at 30.09.2016, compared to 150.4 million EUR at 30.09.2015. The investments made in healthcare real estate in Germany and the Netherlands and the lease of the Guimard 10-12 office building have made it possible to fully absorb the loss of revenues resulting from the disposal of assets in 2015 (Livingstone II office building and Silverstone portfolio of nursing and care homes). On a like-for-like basis, gross rental revenues increased by 0.8 % between 30.09.2015 and 30.09.2016 thanks to new lettings in the office portfolio, on the one hand, and lease indexations, on the other hand.
Direct (technical costs) and indirect (property management costs and corporate management costs) operating costs increased by 6.6 million EUR between 30.09.2015 and 30.09.2016.
- The increase in technical costs (2.4 million EUR) is mainly the result of a different allocation of maintenance work over the period. In 2015, this work was highly concentrated in the fourth quarter, which is not the case this year.
- The increase in property management costs (3.5 million EUR) mainly corresponds to an increase in the number of full-time equivalent employees, to expenses incurred for the study of several investment projects and to a change in asset management services rendered and received.
- The increase in corporate management costs (0.7 million EUR) is due, among other things, to the payment in the first quarter of 2016 of the entire subscription tax for the period.
Of the 6.6 million EUR increase in costs, only 1.3 million EUR come from additional recurring costs related to the development of the Group's activities.
Net interest charges were -24.7 million EUR at 30.09.2016, compared to -32.1 million EUR at 30.09.2015. The average level of the debt decreased from 1,490 million EUR at 30.09.2015 to 1,316 million EUR at 30.09.2016. In addition, the average cost of debt fell from 2.9 % to 2.5 % between these two dates.
The item "Revaluation of financial instruments*" was -55.2 million EUR at 30.09.2016, compared to -12.1 million EUR at 30.09.2015. It includes a charge of 31.7 million EUR related to the change in the fair
REGULATED INFORMATION Brussels, embargo until 10.11.2016, 5:40 pm CET
value of financial instruments and a cost of 23.5 million EUR related to the restructuring of financial instruments.
The net current result - Group share* was 42.9 million EUR at 30.09.2016, compared to 84.4 million EUR at 30.09.2015. Per share, the figures were 2.04 EUR at 30.09.2016 and 4.32 EUR at 30.09.2015. The number of shares entitled to share in the result of the period increased from 19,532,479 to 20,984,619 between the two dates, primarily following the capital increase of May 2015.
Within the result on the portfolio, the change in the fair value of investment properties was 29.8 million EUR on 30.09.2016, compared to -10.3 million EUR at 30.09.2015. The value appreciation of the healthcare assets and the positive revaluation of the renovated Guimard 10-12 office building largely offset the value depreciation of certain office buildings. On a like-for-like basis, the fair value of investment properties is up slightly since 31.12.2015 (+0.9 %).
The net result - Group share was 72.7 million EUR at 30.09.2016, compared to 76.3 million EUR at 30.06.2015. Per share, the figures were 3.47 EUR at 30.09.2016 and 3.90 EUR at 30.09.2015.

▪ Restructuring of interest rate hedging instruments
Given the persistence of low interest rates, Cofinimmo restructured its Interest Rate Swaps (IRS) in early November.
- For the years 2016 and 2017: the hedging remains unchanged;
- For the years 2018 until 2020 : the hedged notional amounts and strike rates have been decreased;
- For the years 2021 and 2022: the hedged notional amounts remain unchanged but the strike rates have been decreased;
- For the years 2023 until 2025: hedging has been put in place.
The interest rate risk hedging situation is now as follows:
The total cost of the restructuration was 44 million EUR.

PRESS RELEASE
8. FBI regime in the Netherlands
The Cofinimmo Group benefits from the FBI (Fiscale Beleggingsinstelling) tax regime through its Dutch subsidiaries in the Netherlands. This regime is comparable to the Belgian Regulated Real Estate Company (RREC) regime. Recently, the Dutch tax authorities informed Cofinimmo that it also has to comply with the FBI regulations in its capacity of parent company. If not, its Dutch subsidiaries could lose their FBI status.
Cofinimmo and the Dutch tax authorities are determining which steps have to be taken exactly. Should its Dutch subsidiaries lose their FBI status and come under the « classic » tax regime, which Cofinimmo considers very unlikely, the impact on the results of the financial year 2017 would be approximately 900,000 EUR, i.e. 0.04 EUR/share.
