A reinforced property positioning

Foncière des Régions now has a portfolio of €16 bn (€9.5 bn Group share) focused on the Offices sector, rented to large companies, with two diversifications on solid and promising markets: German Residential and Hotels/Service sector. Foncière des Régions uses a partnership strategy with a big-name rental base including Suez Environnement, Thalès, Dassault Systèmes, Orange, EDF, IBM, Eiffage, Accor, Telecom Italia, etc.

The strategic successes of the 1st half strengthened this property positioning, allowing for solid growth:

  • in Offices, Foncière des Régions continued the investments in its pipeline. The 18 projects underway are now prelet to 75%, for a yield of over 7%
  • in German Residential, current investments reach €335m (€200m group share) and have increased the proportion of our target locations to almost 80%
  • in Hotels, Foncière des Régions has signed a new partnership with NH Hotel Group and continues to support its partners with the laying of the 1st stone of the 4* Golden Tulip hotel (Louvre Hotels Group) at Euromed Center and the delivery of two B&B hotels.

Foncière des Régions has accelerated its plan to dispose of non Core assets with the sale of €680m Group share, €500m of which was in Logistics. The portfolio, 90% of which is strategic assets, has solid trump cards and an occupancy rate of 96.7% as well as an average firm lease duration of 5.9 years.

Half-year property activity: successes on our promising markets

  • Resistance in rental income like-for-like: +0.2%
  • Occupancy rate increased to 96.7% (+0.7 points)
  • Average firm lease maturity: 5.9 years (+0.1 year)
  • Growth in values like-for-like: +0.9%

Thanks to the strengthening in Germany and despite the impact of disposals, rentals amount to €287.7m GS, up 18% and 0.2% on a like-for-like basis.

Indexation: +0.6%
Occupancy rate: - 0.5%
Letting renewals: +0.1%

Rental income GS at the end of June 2014

Offices France: a dynamic six month period

(€4.7bn of portfolio wholly owned; €4.1bn GS)

  • Slight growth in rental income like-for-like: +0.3%
  • Occupancy rate increased to 96.1% (+0.3 points)
  • Firm maturity of leases: 5.3 years
  • Growth in values like-for-like: +1.3%
  • Already 44% of the portfolio green (+3.0 points)
  • Pipeline: €1.4 bn (+40% over one year)

The rental successes of the six-month period have increased the occupancy rate, to the level of 96.1% (vs 95.8% at the end of 2013). This increase is mainly due to the commercialisation of 10,750m² in Tower CB 21 (7,100m² of which was taken into account on 30 June), 97% of which has now been rented. The lettings also partly offset the six-month mechanical loss of the residual term of the leases, therefore the average firm maturity remains high, at 5.3 years (vs 5.7 years at the end of 2013).

The value of pipeline projects in Offices France is €1.4bn, with significant growth (40%) over a year. Almost €565m in projects are already underway accounting for around €40m in rental income per year (i.e. a yield of over 7%). These projects mainly involve property redevelopments and turn-key rentals. Over 72% of them have been preleased.

Over the six-month period, Foncière des Régions has continued the Astrolabe works (14,000m² with delivery planned in early 2015) on the Euromed Center project in Marseille, in which potential clients have already shown great interest. The Silex 1 building (10,600m²) redevelopment work in Lyon Part-Dieu has started, with delivery scheduled for 2016. Foncière des Régions has also laid the 1st stone of the Askia building (18,500m² to be delivered by 2015, co-owned 25%), as part of the Coeur d'Orly project, 50% of which has been prelet.

As part of its partnership model, Foncière des Régions signed the 13,100m² extension to the Dassault Systèmes Campus and the ten year firm lease extension (from the delivery of the extension, in 2016). Turnkey agreements have also been signed with Schlumberger for 3,150m² in Montpellier and with Bose for 5,100m² in Saint-Germain-en-Laye.

Foncière des Régions has continued the quality rotation of its portfolio, via the sale of €95.5m in assets, 60% of which were located in the outer suburbs and other French regions, for an average margin of 6.4% on the assessement values for the end of 2013. This dynamic asset rotation helped improve the Offices France portfolio, of a value of €4.1 bn GS, with 87% of assets located in Paris, in the inner suburbs and in major regional cities.

The six-month period saw an increase in like-for-like values of 1.3%, driven by the good performance of values in Ile-de-France (+1.0%) and in the major regional cities (+1.7%). The slight drop (-1%) in the other French Regions is mainly due to the increase in registration fees. There was a 5.2% gain on projects under development.

Italy Offices: solid fundamentals

(€4.1bn of portfolio wholly owned; €2.1bn GS)

  • Slight fall in rental income on a like-for-like basis: -0.8%
  • High occupancy rate: 95.7% (Core portfolio)
  • Average firm lease maturity: 6.7 years (Core portfolio)
  • Resistance of expert valuations: -0.2% on a like-for-like basis (-0.1% on the Core portfolio)

85% of the Italy Offices portfolio is located in Northern Italy, Milan and Rome, meeting most of the demand for office space in the Italian market. This positioning allows us to retain solid property indicators, despite an economic situation which is still difficult. The occupancy rate is 95.7% for an average firm lease maturity of 6.7 years (on the Core portfolio).

Rental activity saw significant commercialisations, at high rental values. 5,400m² i.e. c. 100% of the San Fedele building in Milan has been let. The San Nicolao development (Milan, 11,200m²) which was delivered this year, has been prelet to the Luxottica Group for 13 years, 7 of which firm and €5.4m in rental income. 84% of the Via dell'Arte building (Rome, 6,700m²), delivered in the 1st half of the year, has already been rented. The Corso Ferrucci asset (Turin, 51,000m²) delivered in the 1 st half of the year is the subject of active marketing.

The quality rotation of the portfolio continued in the six-month period with the sale of €67m in small assets, for an average margin of 1.0% on assessment values at the end of 2013.

Rental income held up in a still-stagnant economic environment, with a slight drop of 0.8% on a like-forlike basis. The positioning of the portfolio on Core areas allows for assessment value stability over the six months (-0.2% on a like-for-like basis).

German Residential: acceleration of investments

(€2.6bn of portfolio wholly owned; €1.5bn GS)

  • Growth in rental income like-for-like: +2.0%
  • A very high occupancy rate (98.6%)
  • Growth in values like-for-like: +1.5%

Present in Germany since 2005, Foncière des Régions increased its exposure to the German Residential market during 2013 and directly owns 60% of its subsidiary Immeo. The group now benefits from 16% portfolio exposure to German Residential properties and €1.5bn GS at the end of June (vs €0.8bn in 2012) via 40,000 residential units.

The six-month period saw the acceleration of investments with €335m (€200m GS) negotiated in promising cities. In July, 3,400 high quality residential units in Berlin and Dresden were acquired for €240m (€144m GS), based on an average yield of 6.3% and an average metric value of €1,200 per m². At the same time, €14m in assets were sold or were the subject of sale agreements (with an average margin of 8.8% on the assesment values at the end of 2013).

These rotations allow us to continue refocusing quality assets on target locations, which account for almost 80% of the current post operations portfolio (vs 63% in 2012).

The good indicators for the six-month period strengthen Foncière des Régions' positioning in Germany. Rental incomes grew by 2% on a like-for-like basis, to €49.4m GS (€83.4m wholly-owned), and the occupancy rate remains very high, at 98.6%. Also, the portfolio values, amounting to €1.5bn at the end of June, grew by 1.5% on a like-for-like basis (average yield of 6.7%), 5.2% of which is in Berlin and 2.3% in Dresden.

Hotels/Service sector - a leader in Europe

(€3.2bn of portfolio wholly owned; €0.8bn GS)

  • Slight drop in rental income on a like-for-like basis: -1.1%
  • Occupancy rate kept at 100%
  • Increase in the average firm lease maturity: 7.3 years (+0.2 years)
  • Growth in values like-for-like: +0.7%

Leader in hotel Real Estate, Foncière des Régions has long-term partnerships with major hotel chains (Accor, Louvre Hotels Group and B&B Hôtels). The six-month period saw the strengthening of this position with the signature of a new partnership with NH Hotel Group and the continuing of investments, particularly in Germany. The Hotels/Service Sector portfolio is fully let for 7.3 firm years, without expiry before 2017.

In June 2014, the company acquired the NH Amsterdam Centre hotel for a total of €48m excluding fees and a yield of 6.8%. Located in the heart of Amsterdam, this four-star hotel is leased to the NH Hotel group under the terms of an indexed, fixed-rent, 20-year, triple net lease.

Foncière des Régions supported its partner, the B&B Hôtels Group, by signing, in March 2014, a lease in advance of future completion for the development of a B&B hotel in the Paris region, in Romainville, for €6.7m and delivered the Porte des Lilas B&B hotel (€26m) at the end of June 2014. These two hotels are on 12-year indexed, fixed-rate firm, triple net leases. Foncière des Régions also signed a partnership agreement with B&B in January 2014 for the development of nine hotels (900 rooms) in the centres of the main German cities over the next three years for an investment of around €50m.

At the same time, since the start of 2014, six assets were sold or were the subject of sale agreements for a value of €59m (€17m GS). These transactions, performed in line with the 2013 assessment values, involved the last three clinics in the portfolio (€50m) and three retirement homes (€9m).

Rental income, of €24.8m GS at the end of June 2014, was down 6%, mainly due to the impact of disposals in 2013 and 2014. On a like-for-like basis, the slight drop of 1.1% is due to the underperformance of Accor revenues in France (-2.2%) and lease renegotiations for new 12 year leases on the Jardiland portfolio.

At the end of June 2014, the portfolio value, of €0.8bn GS (€3.2bn wholly owned), grew by 0.7% on a like-for-like basis (average yield of 6.3%). This increase was thanks to the +1.0% growth in the value of the hotels, while the value of healthcare and retail assets remain stable despite the increase in transfer tax.

Strong six-month results

Recurring Net Income EPRA: €164m, +9.6%

The Recurring Net Income EPRA was €164m GS in the first half of the year, up 9.6% in one year. This good performance is essentially a result of the strong performance by German Residential and the reduction of the cost of debt (to 3.48% vs 3.94% at the end of 2013), despite the impact of the disposals in 2013 and 2014.

Per share, EPRA Recurring Net Income stands at €2.61 per share, up slightly (by 0.4%) on last year due to the mechanical dilution effect of the share issue carried out in the 2nd half of 2013 in connection with the successful public exchange offer on FDL.

The Net income GS is €52m, compared to €205m in the 1st half of 2013, due to the negative effect of the changes in the fair value of financial instruments (-€145m), due to the attempts to drive down interest rates.

ANR EPRA/share: €74.3 per share

The financial debt of Foncière des Régions is secured with a stable LTV of 46.2% (vs 46.5% in 2013), and an average maturity of 4.2 years (vs 4.5 years in 2013). The strong operating results and the reduction of the average cost of debt enable an improvement of the ICR, from 2.49 to 2.76.

The ANR EPRA was €4 668m (€74.3 per share), down by 4.3% compared to the end of 2013. The sturdiness of the Recurring Net Income (€164m) and the growth in assessment values (€43m) partly offset the impact of distribution (€263m), traditional in the 1st six months, and the restructurings and hedging (€80m), which will have a positive effect on the cost of debt.

The EPRA triple net NAV was €4 059m and €64.6 per share, impacted by the recognition at fair value of the financials instruments and the Ornanes. Diluted for the Ornanes, the EPRA triple net NAV would be €4 932m and €67.1 per share.

Major refinancing in Italy

The first half-year has seen the launch of the ImSer debt refinancing, relating to a €1.7bn portfolio of Telecom Italia buildings. The operation, to be achieved by end-2014, is performed by Beni Stabili, a 50.9% subsidiary of Foncière des Régions, with €500m of new bank loans and a €150m capital increase, in which Foncière des Régions will participate. Beni Stabili will significantly reduce its average cost of debt, improve its financial flexibility and its profitability, with an estimated annualized impact around €30m.

Outlook for 2014 confirmed

The strong results of the 1st six months comfort us of the effectiveness of our partnership strategy which involves focusing on Offices along with two diversifications (German Residential and Hotels), on solid and promising property markets.

The quality of our portfolio, strengthened by the Logistics exit, and our pipeline of €1.7bn on promising markets, have enabled us to secure solid and profitable growth, at the European level, in order to meet one ambition: to become leader on each of our markets.

Despite the difficult economic environment, Foncière des Régions has confirmed its 2014 objective of a growing EPRA Recurring Net Income (Stable per share).

A conference-call for analysts and investors will take place today at 2:30 pm (Paris time)

1. MAJOR TRANSACTIONS DURING THE PERIOD

17 July 2014 Post Closure Paris - La Défense: Foncière des Régions welcomes three new tenants in the CB 21 tower

Over 7,000 sqm let

Foncière des Régions has signed three new green leases in CB 21, representing 7,144 sqm in new leases: 3,486 sqm with Groupon, 2,157 sqm with a leading telecommunications company and 1,501 sqm with Wano, the World Association of Nuclear Operators. After these transactions, CB 21 has an occupancy rate of over 97%.

CB 21, a landmark tower in the business district, which already houses the headquarters of several large corporations (including Suez Environnement, AIG Europe Limited, Informatica and Nokia), now boasts several rental successes from companies in the "new economy".

These companies chose La Défense, either by moving to the area or by reaffirming their location, and they chose CB 21 in particular because it meets their needs and expectations: quality of services, size and flexibility of the office spaces, comfort and services offered.

These leases prove that the market in La Défense, the 1st European business district, is very attractive. In fact, over the first six months of the year, approximately 100,000 sqm of offices have been leased in La Défense, a large portion of which resulted from companies moving into the area. This is a sign of the influence that this business district is exerting, and its attractive features are enticing companies to seek out locations that are accessible and equipped with services as well as new and high-performing office spaces.

26 June 2014 B&B Hotels and its partners VINCI Immobilier and Foncière des Régions inaugurated a new Econochic hotel in Paris on this Thursday, June 26

Paris, June 26, 2014 – The B&B Hotel Paris Porte des Lilas was inaugurated today by Dominique Ozanne, Chief Operating Officer of Foncière des Régions, Jean-Luc Guermonprez, Executive Vice President and Head of Hotel Operations with VINCI Immobilier, and Georges Sampeur, Chief Executive Officer of the B&B Hotels Group. With 265 rooms, the Paris Porte des Lilas hotel built by VINCI Immobilier and owned by Foncière des Régions is the 222nd and largest property in the family of B&B Hotels. Guests at the inauguration ceremony marveled at the ceremony's Old Paris and lilac theme, but also the more modern theme of connectivity.

23 June 2014 First Stone Laid of the Golden Tulip Hotel in Euromed Center An ambitious hotel development that will add to the vibrant urban culture in Euromed Center

At the start of 2013, Crédit Agricole Assurances and Foncière des Régions, the joint investors of a project mapped out by developers Altarea Cogedim and Crédit Agricole Immobilier, made a long-term commitment with the Louvre Hotels Group for the development of a 4-star Golden Tulip hotel within the district of Euromed Center in Marseille.

Situated in the heart of the largest office development being built in Marseille, the hotel will play a key role in the on-going vitality of this new district in the city that offers a mixture of urban activities.

20 June 2014 Foncière des Régions continues to strengthen its positioning on the German residential market

Acquisitions of 3,400 residential units in Berlin and in Dresden

Foncière des Régions, via Immeo AG, signed a purchase agreement for a portfolio of 3,400 residential units located in Berlin and in Dresden for approximately €240 million, fees and taxes included (€144 million, Group share). It represents an average value of about €1,200 per sq.m. Generating €15 million of annualized rent, this portfolio will generate an immediate gross yield of 6.3%.

This acquisition, which should be finalized by late July 2014, will be financed in part through bank debt and in part through a capital increase of Immeo AG. With this transaction, Foncière des Régions confirms its strategy to strengthen its positioning on the German residential sector. A promising market in terms of residential property, Germany has value creation potential which is reflected in the regular increase of rents at constant scope and capital gains in the long term. Operating in this market since 2005 with a high-quality local team, Foncière des

Régions aims to diversify the geographic location of its operations by strengthening its presence in dynamic and attractive cities, such as Berlin, Dresde and Leipzig.

11 June 2014 Foncière des Régions acquires the "NH Amsterdam Centre" hotel**** from the NH Hotel Group

A new hotel real-estate partnership with a key European player

Foncière des Régions, through its specialist Hotel & Service-sector subsidiary Foncière des Murs, acquires an "NH Hotels" hotel from the NH Hotel Group in Amsterdam. This ideally-situated four-star establishment, with 232 rooms, is subject to a 20-year triple net fixed-term lease. The acquisition represents an investment of €47.9M (transfer taxes included).

This acquisition also paves the way for a new partnership for Foncière des Régions with a new brand, NH Hotel Group, which is one of the leaders in Europe and worldwide with 400 hotels and some 60,000 rooms spread across 28 countries. Foncière des Régions is thus embarking on a new stage in the realisation of its development strategy on the European ladder, whilst diversifying its hotel partnerships.

Relying on the dynamism and capacity for innovation of the NH Hotel Group, and on Foncière des Régions' 360° integrated expertise in hotel real-estate, the two partners intend to develop their partnership in Europe.

25 March 2014 Sigrid Duhamel nominated as Director at Foncière des Régions

The appointment of Sigrid Duhamel as Director at Foncière des Régions has been approved by the Board of Directors and will be submitted to the Foncière des Régions General Shareholders' Meeting on 28 April 2014.

Sigrid Duhamel is the Group Corporate Real Estate Director at PSA Peugeot Citroën. She is an acknowledged real estate professional with international experience and awareness who will enrich the qualifications level of the Board.

She will act as an independent director in the meaning of the Afep-Medef Corporate Governance code. Following this appointment, 29% of Foncière des Régions' Board of Directors will be women and 50% of Board members will be independent directors.

13 March 2014 Foncière des Régions accelerates its strategic refocusing by selling nearly 60% of its logistics assets for €473 million

Foncière des Régions has signed agreements with real estate funds managed by Blackstone to sell €473 million in logistics assets. These agreements concern 17 logistics platforms, representing a total surface area of nearly 750,000 sqm, located in France and Germany. The assets will be integrated into Logicor, Blackstone's European logistics platform.

This transaction, which should be finalised in June 2014, will be carried out in-line with the last appraised values.

With this transaction, Foncière des Régions accelerates its refocusing on its core business activities: the leasing of Offices to large companies, as well as the Hotels & Service sector and the German residential sector, two diversifications in solid and profitable markets.

At the conclusion of this disposal, the Core business activities of Foncière des Régions will represent 90% of the Group's share of assets, compared to 85% at the end of 2013.

3 February Support of B&B in its European expansion effort

2014

Foncière des Régions, through its 28% stake in the company's FDM subsidiary, and B&B have signed a partnership agreement for the financing of nine new hotels in Germany over the next three years. The investment will amount to around € 50 million, strengthening the partnership that was initiated between the two groups in 2010.

The protocol concerns the development of nine new B&B hotels, representing 900 rooms located in town centres of major German cities. This new partnership involves an investment of around €50 million. The new hotels, set to open between 2014 and 2016, will be let on 20-year leases with a net triple base rent.

With this project, Foncière des Régions and B&B consolidate their partnership and continue to pursue their development policy in Germany, a strategic country for both entities.

22 January 2014 Beni Stabili launches a €350 million bond issue As part of the diversification of its sources of financing, Beni Stabili launched a €350 million bond issue on 14 January 2014 maturing in 2018.

16 January 2014 Acquisition of the Eiffage Group's future Campus at Vélizy-Villacoublay by Foncière des Régions and Crédit Agricole Assurances

Foncière des Régions and Crédit Agricole Assurances acquired the future Eiffage Campus through a VEFA off plan sale from the Eiffage subsidiary and project developer Eiffage Immobilier. The 19 December 2013 deal gives the two investors ownership of the property where Eiffage Construction already has its headquarters.

During the 2nd quarter of 2015, the Eiffage Campus will bring together the Eiffage Group's five divisions, namely Construction, Public Building Works, Energy, Metals, and Concessions, together with the holding company, i.e. 1,600 employees in total.

The Eiffage Campus will include three new buildings designed by Jean-Michel Wilmotte on six levels including a basement, ground floor and four floors, and two underground car parking levels with 600 spaces covering a usable area of 23,000 sq. m, together with an existing 11,000 sqm building and 270 parking spaces, which is Eiffage Construction's current Head Office, designed by Jean-Paul Viguier.

The employees gathered on this single site will have collaborative working areas, areas to relax and exchange ideas, and a wide range of integrated services (auditorium, restaurants, a sports room, a library, and a concierge service, etc.) as well as a huge garden.

The project intends to be exemplary from an environmental standpoint and is aiming for NF Commercial Buildings – Exception HEQ Level Approach Certification, Effinergie+ certification, and BREEAM certification. The project was designed in accordance with the Eiffage Phosphore Laboratory HQVie® principles. The gardens will account for over half of the outside space, and 50% of the roof will be vegetated. The buildings will also be equipped with solar panels, rainwater catchment systems, high-performance water-saving appliances, and reversible heated/cooled ceilings.

The acquisition of the Eiffage Campus enables Foncière des Régions and Crédit Agricole Assurances to boost their operations in this major commercial sector that is popular with key accounts.

Like-for-like rental income edged up 0.2%, with: Offices France up 0.3%, Offices Italy down 0.8%, Hotels and Service Sector down 1.1% and German Residential up 2%.

The explanation for this improvement lies in the very low indexation in the period, the rent renewals signed in 2013, as well as the maintenance of an occupancy rate above 96.7% end of June 2014.

As Group share, rental income totalled €287.7 million, an increase of 18% in the period. The rise was mainly due to the consolidation of the Residential business (+€58 million), and:

  • investments (+€0.4 million)
  • disposals (-€15 million, including -€4 million from disposals in Logistics)
  • indexation and asset management (+€0.5 million).

The cost to revenue ratio rose from 8.1% in H1 2013 to 8.4% in H1 2014, driven up by the inclusion of the Residential business, where the 13.7% cost to revenue ratio is higher than the Group average.

The average residual lease term, Group share, at the end of June 2014 was 8.1 years (5.8 years firm) as opposed to 8.0 years at the end of 2013 (5.8 years firm). In the Offices, it stood at 8.3 years (5.7 years firm).

Following significant rental activity and the sale of logistics assets, with short lease terms, the firm residual term of our leases has remained stable.

The average expenses rate amounts to only 2.9% of the rents.

The Group Share rents fell from €130.3 million to €121.5 million GS (-€8.8 million) over 1 year. This change is the combined result of:

  • disposals of buildings which occurred in the second half of 2013 and the first half of 2014 (-€8.2 million), related mainly to the sales of secondary assets in the outer suburbs and in the Regions as well as the sharing of 49.9% of the Eiffage Velizy property in December 2013 with Crédit Agricole Assurances
  • acquisitions and deliveries of properties (+€1.5 million) including:
  • o acquisition of the head office of SICRA in Chevilly-Larue in March 2013 (+€0.5 million)

  • o delivery of the Pégase property, a turnkey property leased to Eiffage located in Clichy (92) in April 2013 and of the B&B hotel in Montpellier in May 2014 (+€1 million)

  • liberation of properties intended to be refurbished or redeveloped completely (-€2.0 million) (the Silex 1 and 2 buildings in Lyon and the Levallois Anatole France property)
  • an increase on a like-for-like basis of +0.3% (€0.4 million) related to:
  • o the positive effect of indexation (+€0.6 million)
    • o the letting business (-€0.2 million):
    • the letting successes (+€1.2 million), particularly on the Tour CB 21 (7,000m² of space let with effect from the first half of 2014)
    • the effect of the liberations is -€1.1 million (mainly the properties leased to Eiffage)
    • renewals/re-negotiations (-€0.4 million) at rates in line with the market in return for extensions of the fixed duration

Currently, the ten leading tenants represent 72% of the annualised rents, a percentage slightly lower than that at the end of 2013 (75%). This decrease is explained mainly by the disposal of properties leased to Orange.

The variation of -5.2% in the rents over six months is mainly explained by the impact of disposals of properties leased to Orange, EDF and Eiffage and in line with the protocol signed with Eiffage at the time of the acquisition of the sites in 2008.

  • 32 properties sold over the period
  • 16 Orange properties liberated which are the subject of refurbishment projects (Levallois Anatole France) or of rapid disposals to local promoters with a view to the transformation of the sites
  • 8 Eiffage properties liberated which will also be the subject of disposal

Geographical breakdown: the Paris area represents 74% of the rents

The Paris area share (74% of the annualised rents) of the annualised rents remains preponderant. It was slightly up over the half-year (74% vs. 73% in 2013). The main changes in rents by zone reflect the letting activity since 1 January 2014:

  • the disengagement in the non-strategic zones in the Regions (-15%) and in the outersuburbs (-29%) via the disposal of secondary properties
  • the negative indexation effect.

3. Indexation

The effect of the indexation was + €0.6 million over six months. 26% of the rents are indexed to the ICC, 73% are indexed to the ILAT, whilst the balance is indexed to the ILC or IRL.

The rents benefiting from an indexation floor (1%) represent 40% of the annualised rents and are indexed on the ILAT

The first half of 2013 was marked by the liberation of:

  • eight properties rented by the Eiffage group (9249m²; €0.5 million of rent) in January 2014 in accordance with our initial agreements
  • 16 properties rented to Orange (45,545m²: €6 million of rent) in May 2014, located mainly in the Regions and which are planned to be sold to promoters; the Levallois Anatole France property (€1.6 million of rent) will be the subject of a development project.

Concerning the marketing successes, the significant letting news regarding the CB 21 Tower. Three new leases with Covidien, FHB and Groupon had an effect in H1 2014 and two other leases were finalised after the close with Wano and Verizon, to take effect in H2 2014. Currently, The Tower has an occupation rate of 97% and one floor remains to be let (1,300m²).

The mechanical loss of six months of residual term is in part offset by the new lettings for the half-year (particularly on CB 21). The firm residual term is slightly lower at 5.3 years, vs 5.7 years at the end of 2013. By lease termination date, the residual term of the leases amounts to 6.5 years (vs 6.8 in 2013).

The occupancy rate is up in comparison with the end of 2013 (96.1% vs. 95.8%). That is explained by the successful letting of CB 21. Hence, the vacancy rate in the Paris region fell by more than one point over the half-year.

The increase in the vacancy rate in the Regions is explained by the liberation of the Eiffage and Orange sites which are the subject of an ongoing sales process.

The other vacant office space mainly concerns three properties located in Paris (marketing ongoing), in Nîmes and in Lille, these latter two are the subject of an ongoing sales process.

The amount of Foncière des Régions' arbitrages over the first half of 2014 is in line with Foncière des Régions' strategy of progressive sales of its secondary properties (76% of disposals and agreements for disposals at 30 June 2014).

8. Acquisitions:

No acquisitions were carried out during the half-year

9. Development projects: a pipeline of more than €1.4 billion

The development policy of Foncière des Régions aims mainly at continuing the asset enhancement work undertaken (improvement of asset quality and creation of value), supporting Key Accounts partners over the long term in the deployment of their real estate strategy, and managing new operations in strategic locations.

The strategy is based, in the Paris area, on locations which are well served by public transport and/or in established tertiary districts and in the large Regional Cities where the annual take-up is greater than 50,000m² per year, on prime locations (examples: TGV stations in Bordeaux, Nantes, Nancy or Metz, Part-Dieu district of Lyon).

Delivery of properties

During the first half of the year, a B&B hotel (lease of 12 years firm) with 91 bedrooms, for 2,133m2 ,was delivered in the Pompignane park in Montpellier. The hotel opening occurred on 5 May 2014.

The building permits have been completed on the Levallois (5,500m²), Nancy Grand Cœur (6,500m²) Meudon Green Valley (46,900m²) and Meudon Saulnier (30,000m²) projects. These projects are currently in the pre-marketing phase and are likely to be committed depending on leasing agreements to be completed.

The building permit has been obtained for the extension of the New Vélizy campus, of which the first phase of 45,600m² will be delivered in October 2014. Discussions with Thales on this extension (14,000m²) are in progress.

On the Silex 2 projects (renovation project - extension of the tower vacated by EDF in the Part-Dieu district in Lyon), Toulouse Marquette (building of 10,900m² in the centre of Toulouse), the building permit should be filed by the end of the year.

The first half of 2014 was marked by a growth in values of + 1.3% on a like-for-like basis:

The Paris region and the Regional Cities grew strongly over the half-year, which is explained by investors' strong appetite for well-located buildings and secured cash flows over the longterm.

The slight fall in the value of properties in the regions is explained by the dual effect of the loss of six months of flows, combined with the increase in registration fees in almost all "départements".

Strategic asset segmentation

  • "Core" portfolio: the Core portfolio is the strategic asset core, consisting of resilient properties providing long-term income. Mature buildings may be disposed of on an opportunistic basis in managed proportions, freeing up resources that can be reinvested in value creating transactions, particularly by the development of our portfolio or new investments.
  • "Secondary" portfolio: the "Secondary" portfolio originates principally from outsourcing operations with our major partners-lessees. This portfolio constitutes a compartment with a higher yield than the average for the office portfolio, with a historically-high rate of renewals. The small unit size of these properties and their liquidity on the local markets makes them apt candidates for progressive disposal.
  • Portfolio "In the process of valuation": the portfolio "in the process of valuation" comprises properties targeted for specific restructuring or rental development actions. These assets are intended to become "Core" once the asset management work has been completed.

The proportion of the "Core" portfolio was slightly up over the half-year (64% of the France Offices portfolio) whilst the "Secondary" compartment fell significantly over the half-year (16% vs. 19% in 2013) due to the disposals, a result of the implementation of a targeted disposals strategy.

Taking account of the disposal agreements, the volume of the "Secondary" portfolio is only €557 million, or less than 6% of the Group Share of Foncière des Régions (of which the value is €9.5 billion).

The change in rental income between 30 June 2013 and 30 June 2014 amounted to - €0.4 million, or -0.4%. This change is due primarily to:

  • Asset Management and indexation: +€0.2 million
  • disposals: -€2.4 million
  • deliveries of assets under development, principally Via dell'Arte in Rome and San Fedele in Milan: +€1.8 million.

The change on a like-for-like basis is -0.8% over the period.

Consolidated rental income stood at €96 million in 100% as at 30 June 2014, up 5.4% compared to 30 June 2013. This was due mainly to:

  • Disposals in 2013 and 2014 (-€4.6 million)
  • The drop in variable rental income due to changes in Accor revenues (-2.2% at the end of June compared to 2013)
  • The drop in rents to Jardiland in 2014, after the renegotiations at the end of 2013 and against some extension of leases.

The average load rate is 1.5% of rentals.

In the hotel sector, a like-for-like advance of 1.0% is noted, compared to the end of 2013. The healthcare sector is stable, due to the combined effect of the Indexation of rents (+0.6%) and the rise in transfer fees. The like-for-like stability of Retail Premises is due to the combined effect of compressed capitalisation rates and the rise in transfer fees.

The rents for the first half of 2014 amounted to €24.0 million, or a reduction of 14.3% in comparison with 30 June 2013. This variation is explained by:

Rental Income

Rental income, Group share, rose 18% to €287.7 million (vs. €243.9 million), mainly due to the consolidation of the Residential business (€58 million). This increase in rental income was offset by the effect of asset disposals.

The change in rental income by sector was as follows:

  • decrease in rental income in the Offices France sector (€8.8 million, GS), related to disposals
  • decrease in rental income for Hotels/Service sector (€1.6 million, GS) related to sales and the drop in Accor's revenues.
  • decrease in rental income for Logistics (€4 million, GS), due to disposals in 2013 and 2014.

In consolidated data, rental income increased 21.2% (up €80.9 million):

Offices France -€7.7 million (-5.7%)
Offices Italy -€0.4 million (+0.3%)
Hotels/Service Sector -€5.5 million (-5.4%)
Logistics -€4 million (-14.4%)
Residential +€98.6 million (n/a)

Net operating coasts

Net operating costs, before reclassification of discontinued operations amounted to €27.2 million (GS) at 30 June 2014 (€42.2 million on a consolidated basis), up from €19.3 million at 30 June 2013 (€27.8 million on a consolidated basis), giving an increase of 41%.

This increase stems primarily from the consolidation of the Residential business. Stripping out the impact of Residential, net operating costs dipped slightly in H1 2014. These overhead expenses mainly consist of payroll, attorneys' fees, auditors' fees, and office, communications and IT costs.

Income from other activities

Other business income mainly concerns the parking activity, i.e. car parks owned or under concession, as well as property development.

Net income from these businesses was up in first-half 2014. Other business income stood at €10.6 million at 30 June 2014 (in Group share), compared to €5.5 million for the same period in the prior year.

Depreciation and provisions

Allowances for depreciation and provisions during the period consisted largely of depreciation on operating properties and car parks.

Change in the fair value of assets

The income statement recognises changes in the fair value of assets based on appraisals conducted on the portfolio. In first-half 2014, the change in the fair value of investment assets was positive by €43.3 million for the Group share and €66.7 million on a consolidated basis, versus €12.5 million (GS) at 30 June 2013 (+€26.4 million at 100%).

Operating income, Group share, thus amounted to 299.3 million at 30 June 2014, as against €223 million at 30 June 2013.

Financial coasts and fair value

Financial expenses stood at €92.1 million in Group share (compared to €88.3 million as at 30 June 2013) and at €151.7 million on a consolidated basis (vs. €139.8 million as at 30 June 2013). The amount of interest capitalised on assets under development amounted to €10.2 million (Group share) for first-half 2014.

The change in the fair value of financial instruments was negative €144.7 million in Group share at 30 June 2014 (-€216.9 million on a consolidated basis), compared to positive €53.6 million in Group share (+€74.4 in consolidated data) at 30 June 2013. This was after a reduction in long-term rates between the two periods and a change in the fair value of the ORNANE between 2013 and 2014 (- €83.9 million in Group share and -€112.9 million at 100%).

The property portfolio held directed by the Group was valued in full at 30 June 2014, by property experts including REAG and members of the AFREXIM: DTZ Eurexi, CBRE, JLL, BNP Paribas Real Estate, Cushman, on the basis of joint technical specifications prepared by the company, in compliance with professional practices.

Assets were estimated at values excluding and/or including duties, and rents at market value. Estimates were made using the comparative method, the rent capitalisation method and the discounted future cash flows method.

Car parks were valued by capitalising the gross operating surplus generated by the business.

Other assets and liabilities were valued based on the IFRS values on the consolidated financial statements. The application of the fair value essentially concerns the valuation of the debt coverages and the ORNANES.

For companies shared with other investors, only the Group share was taken into account.

Fair value adjustment for the buildings and business goodwill

In accordance with IFRS standards, buildings operated as businesses and in stocks are valued at the historical cost. A value adjustment, in order to take into account the value of assessment, is recognised in the RNA for a total amount of €21.5 million.

Since business goodwill is not recognised in the consolidated financial statements, a restatement in order to recognise its fair value (as calculated by the valuers) is recognised in the RNA for an amount of €2.8 million as at 30 June 2014.

Fair value adjustment for the car parks

Car parks are valued at historical cost in the consolidated financial statements. A restatement is made in the NAV to take into account the appraisal value of these assets, as well as the effect of the farmouts and subsidies received in advance. The impact on the RNA is €33 million at 30 June 2014.

Recalculation of the base cost excluding duties of certain assets

When a company, rather than the asset that it holds, can be sold off, transfer duties are recalculated based on the company's net asset value. The difference between these recalculated duties and the transfer duties already deducted from the value of the assets generates a restatement of €16 million at 30 June 2014.

Fair value adjustment for fixed-rate debts

The group has taken out fixed-rate loans. In accordance with the principles set out by the EPRA, the triple net RNA is corrected by the fair value of the fixed-rate debt, or an impact at 30 June 2014 of – €103.4 million.

1. Debt by type

Foncière des Régions' net debt GS amounted to €4.8 billion as at 30 June 2014 (€7.9 billion on a consolidated basis).

As a share of total debt, Corporate debt rose from 48% at 31 December 2013 to 55% at 30 June 2014, notably due to the issue of new bonds during the financial year totalling €0.3 billion for the Group Share.

In addition, as at 30 June 2014, cash and cash equivalents at Foncière des Régions amounted to almost €1.7 billion (Group Share) and to €2 billion on a consolidated basis. These amounts do not include the unused portion of loans allocated to development projects under way.

2. Debt maturity

.

The average maturity of Foncière des Régions debt was 4.2 years at end-June 2014. The 2014 and 2015 maturities are covered entirely by existing cash. 2014 maturities primarily concern Foncière des Régions (€106 million).

2015 maturities concern Beni Stabili (€493 million on a consolidated basis and €251 million in Group share) and Foncière des Régions (€82 million).

Debt maturity commitments - Group share

Debt maturity commitments at 100%

    1. Main changes during the period
  • New debt issues: €1.4 billion at 100% (€0.7 billion, Group Share)
  • Beni Stabili: €776 million raised and renegotiated in first-half 2014 (€395 million in Group share)

    • o Beni Stabili placed a €350 million, unsecured inaugural bond issue in January 2014 with an annual coupon of 4.125% and maturing in four years, i.e. in January 2018.
    • o As part of the diversification of its sources of financing, in March 2014, Beni Stabili successfully completed a private placement with institutional investors for a total of €250 million with a 3.50% coupon. The bond matures in April 2019.
    • o In addition, Beni Stabili took out €60 million in new bank financing in the six-month period.
    • o Lastly, Beni Stabili renegotiated three existing bank loans (€116 million) securing better conditions.
  • Hotels and Service sector: €209 million raised in 2014 (€59 million in GS)

  • o In May 2014, Foncière des Murs took out €209 million in loans backed by a diversified asset portfolio mainly comprised of hotel assets, to:
    • refinance the balance of mortgage loans set up in 2007
    • refinance the €60 million mortgage loan taken out in 2013 to optimise the financial conditions of the facility.
  • Residential: €410 million raised in 2014 (€245 million in GS)
  • o In first-half 2014, Foncière Développement Logements (FDL) raised €60 million in new financing in Germany with maturities of four to five years, intended to finance acquisitions of residential portfolios in Berlin, Dresden and Leipzig.
  • o In France, FDL refinanced the Stockholm 1 and 2 loans in January 2014 with new debt for an initial amount of €350 million.

4. Hedging profile

During the 2014 financial year, the hedge management policy remained unchanged, with debt hedged at 90% to 100%, at least 75% of which had short-term hedges and all of which have maturities exceeding debt maturity.

Based on net debt at the end of June 2014, Foncière des Régions is covered (in Group Share) up to 84% in short term hedges compared to 94% at the end of 2013. The average term of the hedges is 4.8 years for Group Share.

5. Average interest rate on the debt and sensitivity

The average rate on the debt of Foncière des Régions stood at 3.48% in GS (end june 2014), compared to 3.94% in 2013. This decrease is primarily due to the full-year impact of bond issues, as well as hedge restructuring, including:

  • the issue of a €270 million Beni Stabili ORNANE (October 2013) at 2.625% for five years and six months
  • the issue of a Foncière des Régions €345 million ORNANE (November 2013) at 0.875% for five years and four months.

For information purposes, a 50 bps drop in the three-month Euribor rate would have a positive impact of €0.7 million on recurring net income for 2014. The impact would be negative by €0.8 million in the event of a 50 bps hike.

B. FINANCIAL STRUCTURE

Except for the debt raised without recourse to the group's property companies, the debt of Foncière des Régions and its subsidiaries generally includes bank covenants (based on ICR and LTV) on the borrower's consolidated financial statements. If these covenants are breached, early debt repayment could be required. These covenants are established in Group Share for Foncière des Régions and for Foncière des Murs and on a consolidated basis for the subsidiaries of Foncière des Régions (if their debts include them).

  • o The most restrictive consolidated LTV covenants at 30 June 2014 were 60% for Foncière des Régions, Foncière des Murs, Foncière Développement Logements and Beni Stabili.
  • o The threshold for consolidated ICR covenants differs from one property company to another, depending on the type of assets, and may be different from one debt to another even for the same property company, depending on debt seniority.

The most restrictive ICR consolidated covenant applicable to the property investment companies are the following:

  • for Foncière des Régions: 200%
  • for Foncière des Murs: 200%
  • for Foncière Développement Logements: 150%
  • for Beni Stabili: 140%
  • o Moreover, for some scopes financed through dedicated debt, there are specific covenants which may be added to or replace the consolidated covenants.
  • o Finally, with respect to Foncière des Régions, corporate loans have been amended following 2013 renegotiations. In particular for some they include the following ratios:

All covenants were fully complied with at the end of 2014. No loan has an accelerated payment clause contingent on a Foncière des Régions rating.

Ratio Covenant S1 2014
LTV 60,0% 50,6%
ICR 200,0% 276,0%

Change in value as shown in the portfolio table is a figure that includes work carried out on existing assets. The restated like-for-like change in value of this work is cited in the comments section.

Loan To Value (LTV)

The LTV calculation is detailed in Part 7 "Financial Resources".

Net asset value per share (NAV/share), and Triple Net NAV per share

NAV per share (Triple Net NAV per share) is calculated pursuant to the EPRA recommendations, based on the shares outstanding as at year-end (excluding treasury shares) and adjusted for the effect of dilution.

Occupancy rate

The occupancy rate corresponds to the spot financial occupancy rate at the end of the period and is calculated using the following formula:

1 - Loss of rental income through vacancies (calculated at MRV) rental income of occupied assets + loss of rental income This indicator is calculated solely for properties on which asset management work has been done and therefore does not include assets available under pre-leasing agreements. Occupancy rate are are calculated using annualized data.

Operating assets

Properties leased or available for rent and actively marketed.

Portfolio

The portfolio presented includes investment properties, properties under development, as well as operating properties and properties in inventory for each of the entities, stated at their fair value. For offices in France, the portfolio includes asset valuations of DS Campus, Euromed and New Velizy, which are consolidated under the equity method.

  • Recurring Net Income EPRA per share (RNI/share)

Recurring Net Income per share is calculated pursuant to the EPRA recommendations, based on the average number of shares outstanding (excluding treasury shares) over the period under consideration and adjusted for the effect of dilution

Rental Income

.

  • Recorded rent corresponds to gross rental income accounted for over the year by taking into account deferment of any relief granted to tenants, in accordance with IFRS standards.
  • The like-for-like rental income posted allows comparisons to be made between rental income from one year to the next, before taking changes to the portfolio (e.g. acquisitions, disposals, building works and development deliveries) into account. This indicator is based on assets in operation, i.e. properties leased or available for rent and actively marketed.
  • Annualised rental income corresponds to the gross amount of guaranteed rent for the full year based on existing assets at the period end, excluding any relief.

Surface

SHON: Gross surface

SUB: Gross used surface

Unpaid rent (%)

Unpaid rent corresponds to the net difference between charges, reversals and unrecoverable loss of income divided by rent invoiced. These appear directly in the income statement under net cost of unrecoverable income (except in Italy for which not relating to unpaid rents were retired)

  • Yields/return
  • The portfolio returns are calculated according to the following formula:

Gross annualised rent (not corrected for vacancy)

Value excl. duties for the relevant scope (operating or development)

The returns on asset disposals or acquisitions are calculated according to the following formula:

Gross annualised rent (not corrected for vacancy)

Acquisition or disposal value excl. duties
