PRESS RELEASE
1. Summary of activity since 01.07.2020
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 3 rd quarter of 2020 was marked by several major transactions in healthcare real estate, representing an investment of 107 million EUR. Several acquisitions and the delivery of several construction projects enabled the group to further expand its healthcare portfolio, mainly in the Netherlands, Germany and Spain. As at 30.09.2020, healthcare real estate assets (2.7 billion EUR) represent more than 58% of the group's portfolio, which now reaches 4.6 billion EUR. Subsequently, the group also announced 184 million EUR of additional investments in investment properties in operation (in Belgium and Germany) and 270 million EUR of new future development projects (in Germany but also, and for the first time, in Finland).
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'). These include the signature of a sale agreement for the Colonel Bourg/Kolonel Bourg 122 office building located in the decentralised area of Brussels and the disposal of the office building located Chaussée de Louvain/Leuvensesteenweg 325 in the periphery, which together represent a divestment of 8 million EUR, but also the signature of an agreement relating to the acquisition of the office building 'Bruxelles Environnement/Leefmilieu Brussel' on the 'Tour & Taxis' site in the CBD for a total amount of 100 million EUR.
For the first nine months of the year, Cofinimmo has already made 339 million EUR of investments. With the additional 284 million EUR announced during the fourth quarter, Cofinimmo has already exceeded the investment budget of 375 million EUR planned for 2020.
As part of the ESG policy adopted by the Group for more than 10 years now, and which remains a priority, Cofinimmo made several donations to support a series of initiatives aiming at fighting against the coronavirus pandemic and its effects in the healthcare sector, and more particularly in nursing and care homes as well as hospitals. The group's extensive ESG efforts have recently been rewarded with a new 'EPRA Gold Award Sustainability Best Practices Recommendations' for the seventh consecutive year and the renewal of the ISO 14001 environmental certification.
In terms of financing, several operations enabled to further improve the balance sheet structure and to maintain its maturity, which no longer comprises any significant maturity prior to September 2021. Since the beginning of the second half-year, Cofinimmo has contracted or renegotiated credit lines amounting to 580 million EUR. As at 30.09.2020, Cofinimmo had 820 million EUR of headroom after deduction of the backup of the commercial paper programme.
The Group's momentum in terms of investments and financing (average cost of debt decreased at 1.3%), coupled with effective management of the existing portfolio (occupancy rate of 97.7%, gross rental revenues up 1.6% on a like-for-like basis, operating margin increased to 83.8%), enabled the company to realise a net result from core activities - Group share of 138 million EUR as at 30.09.2020, higher than the outlook announced last April and July1 (compared to the 121 million EUR that were made as at 30.09.2019), mainly due to scope variations arising from the acquisitions made and the decrease in operating costs related to the office buildings sold. This result includes the support (announced last April) of initiatives aiming at fighting against the coronavirus pandemic and its effects in the healthcare sector, and more particularly in nursing and care homes as well as hospitals. The net result from core activities per share - Group share amounts to

5.24 EUR (higher than the outlook, compared to 5.06 EUR as at 30.09.2019), taking into account the issue of shares in 2019 and June 2020.
The net result - Group share amounted to 99 million EUR (i.e. 3.76 EUR per share) as at 30.09.2020, compared to 134 million EUR (i.e. 5.56 EUR per share) as at 30.09.2019. This variation is mainly due to the increase in the net result from core activities - Group share and to value adjustments (investment properties, hedging instruments, goodwill, i.e. non-cash changes) between 30.09.2019 and 30.09.2020.
With a debt-to-assets ratio of 42.2% as at 30.09.2020, Cofinimmo's consolidated balance sheet (whose BBB/A-2 rating was confirmed last April) shows a strong solvency (information on risks and uncertainties related to the coronavirus COVID-19 are stated in section 14).

- Development of 8 innovative healthcare sites in the Land of North Rhine-Westphalia / Exclusive partnership with a local and experienced design and project management office
Cofinimmo signed an agreement to acquire, under certain conditions, the companies that will develop 8 eco-friendly healthcare campuses in the Land of North Rhine-Westphalia. The total conventional value of this transaction will amount to approximately 250 million EUR.

All projects are located in North Rhine-Westphalia, a Land bordering Belgium and the Netherlands. With almost 18 million inhabitants on approximately 34,000 km², it is the fourth largest Land in Germany in terms of surface area and the largest in terms of population. It is also the largest and most important economic region with a relatively high population density and a relatively high proportion of older age groups.
In total, the 8 projects will offer approximately 1,100 units. They are mostly located in prime residential areas of medium-sized cities with a favourable supply and demand situation. They are located near public transport and shops.
The design of these projects is based on a concept that offers a diversified range of services (assisted living, intensive care, day-care, nursing and care homes, etc.).
1 The owner primarily bears the maintenance costs of the roof and the structure of the building.

PRESS RELEASE
Works on a first project, in the city of Erfstadt, will start before the end of this year. The site has about 160 assisted-living units with a surface area ranging from 45 to 120 m², 24 outpatient care units for sheltered living groups and 21 day care units. It is equipped with numerous care and service facilities (café, restaurant, wellness, fitness, etc.). The complex will be completed at the end of 2022. Construction works on the other projects will start in the next quarters and the final buildings should be completed before the end of 2022.
Various sustainable techniques and materials, such as cogeneration, high-efficiency glazing and LED lighting, will be incorporated in all these projects. Façade and roof insulation as well as air-tightness are higherperforming than standard. Most projects also contain green roofs. All buildings are energy-efficient new constructions and fit within the KfW programme. This programme is managed by the German state-owned Bank for Reconstruction (in German: Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau, KfW), and has the overall aim of enhancing the energetic quality of the German building stock. Therefore, the buildings are designed to achieve the 'KfW Effizienzhaus 40' standard. The total energy demand, and thus also the consumption and CO2 emissions for these building will be 60% lower than the German reference buildings.
Cofinimmo will acquire a participation in the capital of the companies that will develop the innovative healthcare sites. The payment of the shares will be staggered over time (from 2020 to 2022).
During the construction phase, local credits will be taken out by each of the companies. The intention is to keep the credits which fall within the framework of the KfW programme after work completion. Cofinimmo will only use its current or future credit lines to finance the acquisition of the share capital of the owner companies.
All projects will be let to the operator Schönes Leben Gruppe, with whom 'Dach und Fach'1 lease contracts have been concluded with a term of 25 years. In addition, the maintenance costs of the sites, born by the owner, are covered by the developer through a time-limited guarantee, making the lease contract comparable to triple net lease for an initial period of time. Rents will be indexed on the basis of the German consumer price index. The gross rental yield will be approximately 4.5% and will not be affected by the integration of the platform.
With Schönes Leben Gruppe, Cofinimmo has added a new high-quality operator. This group already operates 67 nursing and care homes, assisted-living units or care clusters throughout Germany, accounting for 6,500 beds and more than 480 assisted-living units. More than 35 additional locations are under construction or planned. The group has developed a new residential care concept, offering a wide range of services and care levels through different operational entities, ranging from traditional elderly care to highly specialised care. This overall concept enables the residents to stay as long as possible in a familiar environment, even in the event of changing living conditions. The ambition of Schönes Leben Gruppe is to become the most modern service provider for people over 65 in Germany and to design residential and care facilities for the future generation of elderly, based on current customer requirements.
In addition, an exclusive partnership was concluded with the local design and project management office, which will develop the 8 projects. This office, which was founded in 2006, has already developed and sold 22 elderly living complexes with more than 3,500 units. Over the past 10 years, it has sold on average more than 250 nursing units annually. Next to its consultancy activity for the preparation and execution of construction projects, this office deals mainly with the preparation and technical support for the development of real estate properties and the coordination of construction works. Cofinimmo has the option of fully integrating the platform into its structure in due course. This is a potential growth engine for Cofinimmo's future success in Germany.

5.3. Healthcare real estate in Finland
- Acquisition of a medical centre under construction in Vaasa
On 12.11.2020, Cofinimmo entered the Finnish healthcare real estate sector with a construction project of a medical centre.
Finland 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 current demographic situation will increase the need for high-quality healthcare services.
Through the years 2000, the importance of social and health services companies and associations has continually increased in Finland. Private service providers produce a quarter of all social and health services. The demand for social and health services continues to increase due to an ageing population. They usually include home service accommodation for older people, family and child care, physiotherapy services, medical doctor and dentist consultations, occupational health care. The growth of the private healthcare sector has created a high demand for state-of-the-art innovative medical centres for such use. The medical centre that is under construction in Vaasa is a fine example of this trend.
As a result, Finland offers interesting perspectives for Cofinimmo which has the ambition to contribute to catering the healthcare need of the Finnish population. The company is well positioned to fulfil that ambition through its deep knowledge of European healthcare real estate and its 35 years of experience in developing and improving high-quality real estate assets.
The medical centre is being built in Vaasa, the regional capital of Ostrobothnia on the west coast of Finland.

7. Management of financial resources
During the 3 rd quarter of 2020, Cofinimmo reinforced its financial resources and its balance sheet structure. The financing operations during this 3rd quarter enabled the group to considerably increase available bank financing, to maintain an average cost of debt at particularly low levels and to maintain its maturity. The various operations carried out are stated hereunder.
7.1. Financing operations since 01.07.2020
7.1.1. Financing developments
- 01.07.2020: New credit line of 500 million EUR concluded for two years;
- 02.10.2020: Early refinancing of the last credit line for 2021 of 30 million EUR maturing in March 2021 to extend its maturity to 2029.
In November, Cofinimmo also signed the extension of a loan of 50 million EUR for an additional year to bring its maturity to 2026.
7.1.2. Interest rate hedging
The 3rd quarter enabled Cofinimmo to continue the increase of its hedging over a period of ten years. IRS for the years 2026-2030 (50 million EUR) were subscribed in order to increase hedging for these years. Cofinimmo also increased its hedging for the coming years with the subscription of caps for 2021 (50 million EUR) and 2022 (100 million EUR).
In October, new caps were subscribed for 150 million EUR for 2021 and for 100 million EUR for the years 2022-2024.
7.2. Availabilities
As at 30.09.2020, availabilities on committed credit lines reached 1,619 million EUR. After deduction of the backup of the commercial paper programme, Cofinimmo had 819 million EUR of available lines to finance its activity.
7.3. Consolidated debt-to-assets ratio
As at 30.09.2020, Cofinimmo met the consolidated and statutory debt-to-assets ratio test. Its consolidated debt-to-assets ratio (calculated in accordance with the regulations on RRECs as follows: financial and other debts / total assets) reached 42.2% (compared to 41.0% as at 31.12.2019). As a reminder, the maximum debtto-assets ratio for RRECs is 65%.
When the loan agreements granted to Cofinimmo refer to a debt covenant, they refer to the regulatory debt-to-assets ratio and cap it at 60%.

PRESS RELEASE
7.4. Weighted average maturity of financial debts
The weighted average maturity of the financial debts remained stable at four years between 31.12.2019 and 30.09.2020. This calculation excludes short-term commercial paper maturities, which are fully hedged by available tranches on committed long-term credit lines.
Committed long-term credit lines (bank credit lines, bonds, commercial paper with a term of more than one year and term loans), for which the total outstanding amount is 2,711 million EUR, will mature on a staggered basis until 2029.

Schedule of long-term financial commitments to date1 (x 1,000,000 EUR)
7.5. Average cost of debt
The average cost of debt, including bank margins, stood at 1.3% for the first three quarters of the 2020 financial year, compared to 1.4% for the 2019 financial year.
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 many floating-rate credit lines.
The breakdown of expected fixed-rate debt, hedged floating-rate debt and unhedged floating-rate debt is presented as shown in the graph below.
1 Taking into account the use of credit lines as at 30.09.2020

REGULATED INFORMATION
Brussels, embargo until 19.11.2020, 5:40 PM CET

To date, the interest rate risk is hedged at nearly 70% until the end of 2024. The projected debt is hedged at nearly 90% for the rest of 2020. Cofinimmo's result nevertheless remains sensitive to fluctuations in interest rates.
7.6. Financial rating
Since 2001, Cofinimmo has been granted a long-term and short-term financial rating from the Standard & Poor's rating agency. On 20.04.2020, Standard & Poor's confirmed the Cofinimmo Group's BBB/stable outlook rating for the long term and A-2 for the short term. The Group's liquidity has been rated 'adequate'.
7.7. Disposals of own shares

Comments on the consolidated income statement - Analytical form
Rents (gross rental income) amount to 191 million EUR, compared to 175 million EUR as at 30.09.2019, up 8.9%, thanks to the acquisitions made between these two dates. On a like-for-like basis*, gross rental income increased by 1.6% between 30.09.2019 and 30.09.2020 (see section 6.3). Rental income (after gratuities, concessions and termination indemnities ̶see details on the calculation of alternative performance indicators) amounts to 186 million EUR, compared to 172 million EUR as at 30.09.2019, up 8.5% compared to 2019. In order to reflect the doubts as to the current ability of some tenants to pay their rents, and without prejudging the outcome of the discussions with these tenants, Cofinimmo has already booked writedowns (taken into account in the result outlook announced last April and July1 ) of around 2 million EUR over the 1 st half-year. After taking these into account, rental income, net of rental charges amounts to 184 million EUR, compared to 172 million EUR, up 7.0%, higher than the outlook announced last April and July, which assumed additional writedowns.
The disposal of the Souverain/Vorst 23/25 at the end of 2019 resulted in a decrease in unrecovered taxes on buildings under renovation of almost 4 million EUR, in line with the outlook.
Refurbishment costs, net of tenant compensation for damages are down by approximately one million EUR, and are in line with the outlook. By nature, these costs are exposed on a non-regular basis over the financial year or from one financial year to the next. The credit amount recorded in the 3 rd quarter comes from the recovery of compensations for damages.
Technical costs are down by more than 2 million EUR. By nature, these costs are exposed on a non-regular basis over the financial year or from one financial year to the next. They are lower than the outlook.
The variation in corporate management costs between the first three quarters of 2019 and the first three quarters of 2020 is also in line with the outlook. As a reminder, the corporate management costs of the 1 st half-year of 2020 included the support (500,000 EUR) announced last April of initiatives aiming at fighting against the coronavirus pandemic and its effects in the healthcare sector, and more particularly in nursing and care homes as well as hospitals (see section 12.1). The operating margin increases to 83.3%, compared to 82.7% as at 30.09.2019.

PRESS RELEASE
As a reminder, in application of IFRIC 21, taxes for which the triggering event has already occurred are recognised as at January 1st for the entire year. This is notably the case for withholding taxes, regional taxes and municipal taxes on office spaces.
Financial income decreased at 6 million EUR, last year's figure included non-recurring items for less than 3 million EUR, whereas the 2020 financial income includes non-recurring items for one million EUR booked in the 1st half-year, and linked to the contributions in kind of 10.06.2020.
The net interest charges decreased compared with last year, particularly thanks to the average cost of debt which decreased to 1.3%, compared to 1.5% as at 30.09.2019. The net interest charges are lower than 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 138 million EUR as at 30.09.2020, higher than the outlook (compared to 121 million EUR that were made as at 30.09.2019), mainly due to scope variations of acquisitions made and the decrease in operating costs related to the office buildings sold. The net result from core activities ̶Group share amounts to 5.24 EUR (higher than the outlook, compared to 5.06 EUR as at 30.09.2019) and takes into account the issues of shares in 2019 and in June 2020 (optional dividend and contributions in kind). The average number of shares entitled to the result of the period evolved from 24,004,182 to 26,298,121 between these two dates.
As for the result of financial instruments, the item 'change in the fair value of financial instruments' amounted to -21 million EUR as at 30.09.2020, compared to -47 million EUR as at 30.09.2019. This variation is explained by the change in the forward 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 established at 3 million EUR as at 30.09.2020, compared to 2 million EUR as at 30.09.2019. The item 'Changes in the fair value of investment properties' is slightly positive as at 30.09.2020 (70 million EUR as at 30.09.2019): the value appreciation of the healthcare real estate portfolio in Belgium as well as that of office buildings located in the Central Business District of Brussels ('CBD') compensated the value depreciation of some buildings. Without the initial effect from the changes in the scope, the changes in the fair value of investment properties is positive (+0.2%) for the first nine months of 2020. The item 'Other result on the portfolio' is -27 million EUR as at 30.09.2020 and mainly comprises the effect of changes in the scope of consolidation, that of deferred taxes1 and an impairment on goodwill recorded in the first half-year (usually recorded, where applicable, at the end of the financial year rather than within the financial year).
The net result - Group share amounted to 99 million EUR (i.e. 3.76 EUR per share) as at 30.09.2020, compared to 134 million EUR (i.e. 5.56 EUR per share) as at 30.09.2019. This fluctuation is mainly due to the increase of the net result – Group share and the changes in the value (investment properties, hedging instruments, goodwill, i.e. non-cash variations) between 30.09.2019 and 30.09.2020.
1 Deferred taxes on the unrealised capital gains relating to the buildings owned by certain subsidiaries.

11. Investment programme for 2020
Taking into account the current status of investment files, the gross investment budget for 2020 published on 13.02.2020 (and detailed in the annual financial report) is already exceeded. The new gross investment objective is established at 650 million EUR (compared to 375 million EUR initially), subjected to the risks and uncertainties mentioned in section 14 below.
Cofinimmo aimed at divesting about 92 million EUR (initial budget of 95 million EUR, less the impact of some operations which have already been subjected to a private agreement in 2020, but provide for an effective disposal during the following financial years). In view of the current context, some transactions will not be carried out before 2021. Divestments in 2020 should therefore be around 37 million EUR.
The new investment and divestment targets are broken down by business sector in the following chart:

12. Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG)
12.1. Initiatives adopted in response to coronavirus COVID-19
As a reminder, following the outbreak of the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic in the countries where the group is active, Cofinimmo implemented several measures to ensure the continuity of its activities, while making the health and well-being of all its stakeholders its priority.
The measures taken with regard to teleworking (without recourse to temporary unemployment) were successful. A generalised teleworking system has been implemented without any problems from March until June 2020. This measure was subsequently adapted to comply with the decisions taken by the authorities.
A co-operation with tenants was also put in place to help them get through this difficult period. This requires an analysis of the specific situation of each tenant on a case-by-case basis.
In addition to the above-mentioned initiatives, Cofinimmo defined a programme of targeted savings. Part of these savings enabled to feed the common fund-raising platform set up for the benefit of five academic hospitals that are on the front line in the fight against the coronavirus (operation #clapandact). The five hospitals (Cliniques Universitaires Saint-Luc UCLouvain Bruxelles, UZ Brussel, CHU de Liège, UZ Antwerpen, Hôpital Erasme ULB) each received a donation.
Another aspect of the savings plan stems from the desire for solidarity unanimously expressed by the governance bodies of Cofinimmo (board of directors and executive committee). This solidarity is expressed by a reduction in the monthly remuneration of the members of the executive committee and by a reduction in the remuneration (mandate and attendance fees) of the directors. This 15% reduction has been implemented in April and will remain applicable until the end of the year. In addition, no attendance fees for board meetings dedicated to the management of the health crisis (such as that of the last board meeting that deliberated on this subject) are paid to directors.
The amount thus collected is doubled by Cofinimmo and allocated to one or more initiatives aiming at fighting against this pandemic and its effects:
- Cofinimmo financed the Dr. Daniël De Coninck Fund, supported by the King Baudouin Foundation, which supports initiatives that assist the management and staff of nursing and care homes in Belgium. These initiatives may aim at supporting management during the crisis, the psychological well-being of the staff, the quality of care, the communication of the management towards the staff and the families, or the implementation of medical and ethical guidelines related to the crisis.
- Cofinimmo also supported various projects in France, the Netherlands and Germany:
- o In France, the group selected two programmes supported by the Fondation de France which promote another approach of ageing. 'Vivre ses choix, prendre des risques jusqu'à la fin de sa vie' is an initiative that encourages ethical practices that respect elderly people and aim at preserving human dignity. It has 4 objectives, namely: to make the practices evolve in order to have a better consideration of elderly's wishes and desires, irrespective of their health condition or where they live; to develop consultation with elderly, families and healthcare staff to better support the elderly's choices; to promote a 'right-to-risk' culture by training and supporting professionals and family members; to advance reflection on death and grief with all parties involved, particularly in EHPAD.

- o The second initiative 'Vieillir acteur et citoyen de son territoire' aims at enabling elderly to take part in the local life for as long as possible and has 3 objectives more specifically: to give everyone the opportunity to express themselves and to take action on their own territory; to promote elderly autonomy and social integration thanks to new technologies; to anticipate the disruptions caused by ageing by developing solidarity among family and neighbours and by involving professionals and volunteers networks.
- o In the Netherlands, Cofinimmo selected the project 'Samen ouder', supported by the 'Oranje Fonds' foundation. This programme encourages elderly to meet and engage in voluntary work. The programme combats social isolation among the elderly by involving them in activities. This enables them to remain active and to use their free time for meaningful activities.In Germany, Cofinimmo selected 'Aktion Deutschland Hilft', which itself supports 'Johanniter-Unfall-Hilfe', one of the largest charity associations in Europe, active in Germany and abroad. In this time of pandemic, it helpsthe most vulnerable people and those belonging to risk groups by means of personal advice and support, in order to prevent them from becoming isolated during the pandemic.
The totality of the donations represents an envelope of 500,000 EUR.
Early September 2020, Cofinimmo put smartphones and other IT equipment back into circulation through companies promoting local employment. Cofinimmo's societal objective is two-fold: to reduce the environmental impact of these end-of-life devices for society and to reduce the digital divide for vulnerable groups of people. More specifically, the donation of equipment is intended for nursing and care homes and schools, two sectors that were strongly affected by the digital divide during the recent health crisis.
12.2. Sustainable portfolio and internal organisation
On 30.07.2020, Vinçotte renewed Cofinimmo's ISO 14001 certificate for the fourth time. This certificate was granted for the first time in 2008 and has been systematically renewed since. It guarantees that the Cofinimmo Group has not only set up an environmental management system, but also that it manages in a structured manner the environmental aspects of its activities, including compliance with the environmental regulations in force.
As a reminder (and as stated in the 2019 sustainability report), Cofinimmo has an ISO 14001:2015-certified environmental management system to implement projects with an environmental impact, whether it be the extension of a nursing and care home or the conversion of an office building. This system covers the life cycle of its assets (including its head office). The levers applicable to the different stages of the asset life cycle vary according to the sector of activity.
On 30.09.2020, Cofinimmo committed itself as a signatory of the Science Based Targets initiative and the Belgian Alliance for Climate Action. By supporting these initiatives, Cofinimmo stimulates and contributes to the transition towards a carbon-neutral economy. The launch of this event in the media took place on 12.10.2020.
As stated in the 2019 sustainability report, Cofinimmo has a clear vision and clear objectives when it comes to CO2 reduction. This strategic thinking led to the ambitious project of reducing the energy intensity of the company's portfolio by 30% by 2030 compared to the 2017 level (project 303 ).

PRESS RELEASE
12.3. Sustainable financing
In accordance with its sustainability strategy, Cofinimmo intends to pursue a 'Green & Social' financing policy. This was launched in 2016 with the first issue of 'Green & Social Bonds' and extended in 2019 with a first 'Green & Social Loan', quickly followed by a second 'Green & Social Loan' in May 2020.
The proceeds have been directly fully allocated to various 'Green & Social' assets. The list of selected assets for each of the above-mentioned financing is available in the 2019 sustainability report. The 'Green & Social Loan' financing concluded in 2020 enabled the group to partially refinance three separate projects, namely the renovation of the Belliard 40 office building in Brussels, which already obtained the BREEAM 'Excellent' certificate for its design phase, the acquisition of a 101-bed rehabilitation clinic in the Rhône (France) and the acquisition of a 111-bed EHPAD (nursing and care home) in Haute Garonne (also in France). These three projects will be detailed in the 2020 annual report.
The 'Green & Social Bonds' are 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. The other Belgian issuers being a Belgian banking group, the Belgian State, the Walloon Region and a Belgian wastewater treatment company.

14. Main risks and uncertainties
The board of directors believes that the main risk factors summarised on pages 2 to 5 of the 2019 universal registration document - annual financial report published on 09.04.2020 are still relevant for the remaining months of the 2020 financial year.
In addition to the information included in the 2019 annual financial report, and as already mentioned in the press releases dated 09.04.2020, 28.04.2020 and 30.07.2020), it is specified that:
- in the office segment, the surface areas rented directly to merchants (retailers, restaurants, ...) only account for approximately 0.2% of the Group's contractual rents;
- in the healthcare real estate segment, the wellness & sport centres account for less than 3% of the Group's contractual rents. These centres, located in Belgium and Germany, have been closed to the public since March and are only partially reopen since the end of May/beginning of June. The operators' loss of income was significant during this period, the situation went gradually back to normal and followed the measures taken to address the healthcare crisis. The current wave of contamination resurgence calls for caution: the Belgian centres are mainly closed again since 26.10.2020, while the German centres are almost completely closed since 02.11.2020.
The operational teams remain in close contact with the group's tenants to ensure the continuity of services and help them get through this difficult period. Cofinimmo reviews the situation of its counterparties on a case-by-case basis in order to find a balanced solution where appropriate. In the light of the current health crisis, Cofinimmo conservatively reviewed its outlook for the net result from core activities - Group share as early as April, and confirms this outlook. In this context, in order to reflect the doubts as to the current ability of some tenants to pay their rents, and without prejudging the outcome of the discussions with these tenants, Cofinimmo has already booked writedowns on trade receivables for approximately 2 million EUR in the first half-year of 2020 (see press release dated 30.07.2020).
Besides, on 15.09.2020, during the traditional Prinsjesdag speech, the Dutch government announced its new fiscal plan for 2021, which should come into force as of 01.01.2021. The 2% registration fees will only apply to properties intended for the permanent residence of a natural person, while it will rise to 8% for all other types of property. For Cofinimmo, this means that registration fees for residential properties would rise from 2% to 8%, as well as registration fees for non-residential properties, which would rise from 6% to 8%. The effect of these measures is estimated at 10 million EUR on the changes in fair value of investment properties (net result - Group share). However, this new plan will have no effect on the net result from core activities - Group share.
Taking into account the current status of investment files, and the evolution of the current crisis, the investment and divestment budget for 2020 published on 13.02.2020 (and detailed in the 2019 annual financial report – see also section 11 above) is already exceeded. The objective with this regard is now estimated at 650 million EUR, whereas the divestment objective amounts to 37 million EUR (see section 11).
Based on the information currently available, and the evolution of the current crisis, the level of net result from core activities - Group share budgeted for 2020, should only be affected to a limited extent by the current situation in Europe (as announced in the press releases of 09.04.2020, 28.04.2020 and 30.07.2020); it is expected to be within the upper end of the range going from 6.60 to 6.85 EUR/share (compared to

REGULATED INFORMATION

7.10 EUR/share estimated on 13.02.2020). Based on this outlook, the budgeted gross dividend for the 2020 financial year, payable in 2021, can be confirmed at 5.80 EUR per share.
Besides, 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.
