PRESS RELEASE

Paris, 2 January 2017

Foncière des Régions acquires 19 hotels in Spain for €542 million

Foncière des Régions, via its 49.9%-owned subsidiary Foncière des Murs, has completed the acquisition of a portfolio of 19 hotels from Merlin Properties, located primarily in Barcelona and Madrid. With this transaction, which represents an investment of €542 million including-stamp duties (€270 million group share), Foncière des Régions is pursuing its European development and partnership policy with leading operators in this sector.

Fast-growing market, Spain is the 3rd most popular tourist destination worldwide. The strong growth of the tourist and business clientele, particularly in Barcelona, which is now continental Europe's foremost destination for business seminars, makes it possible to envisage a further increase in RevPar of + 8% in 20171 .

The portfolio acquired by Foncière des Régions consists for the most part of centrally located 4 star hotels at the heart of Spain's major cities, essentially Barcelona and Madrid. With a total of 3,800 guest-rooms, these hotels, that include in particular the Barcelo Torre de Madrid and the NH Collection Colon in Madrid plus the Eurostars Gran Marina and AC Forum in Barcelona, are leased under fixed- or guaranteed-rental leases to reference names in the Spanish hotel industry such as Melia, Hotusa, Barcelo or NH.

Backed by acknowledged expertise, market insights and dedicated teams, Foncière des Régions intends to carry out an active policy of asset management with this portfolio, which harbours significant potential for the creation of value and a net target yield of 6%.

A long-standing partner with major hotel names operating in France, Foncière des Régions in 2010 committed to a partnership-based growth dynamic in the European hotel sector, specifically in Germany, where it has seen rapid development. Today, the Group has crossed a strategic milestone and reached a significant critical size in the Spanish market with this acquisition of €542 million including-stamp duties.

1 source: MKG

Foncière des Régions is cushioning this way its positioning as leading player in the European hotel investment market, holding an asset portfolio of €3.9 billion. In the space of 2 years and for the whole of the hotel portfolio held by Foncière des Régions, the number of partner brands has risen from 5 to 17, with its Europe share (excluding France) increasing from 24% to 56%.

As part of this transaction, Foncière des Murs, a branch of Foncière des Régions, is planning a capital increase of around €200 million over the 1st half year with preferential right of subscription being maintained2 . The principal shareholders, accounting for 94% of capital, have already stated their intention to subscribe for a total amount covering the full proposed capital increase. Furthermore, the acquisition is being financed in cash and by a new debt over 8 years at a cost of around 1.85%.

Paris, 16 November 2016

Strategic partnership on the Telecom Italia portfolio in Italy

Foncière des Régions – through its Italian subsidiary Beni Stabili – has entered into a partnership with Crédit Agricole Assurances and EDF Invest concerning 40% of the Telecom Italia portfolio. Foncière des Régions has once again demonstrated its ability to push ahead with the transformation of its portfolio and manage long-term rental partnerships with major users.

A transforming deal in Italy

As the owner of a €1.5 billion real estate portfolio leased out to Telecom Italia for a firm 14-year term, the Group decided to place all of these assets and the related debt into a non-listed regulated fund (SICAF) in which Crédit Agricole Assurances and EDF Invest – the investment division of the EDF group - will each acquire a 20% stake, while Beni Stabili will keep 60% of the capital. This operation should be completed in early 2017.

This transaction confirms the appeal of the Italian real estate market for long-term international investors and marks a major step in the Italian portfolio strategy initiated in 2015, based on 3 pillars:

  • diversifying the rental income base. Four years ahead of target, the Group's exposure to Telecom Italia will drop to nearly 20% of the Group's Italian assets, compared to 41% at the end of 2015;
  • strengthening the balance sheet by selling the equivalent of €620 million in Telecom Italia assets;
  • increasing the Group's Office exposure in Milan to 58% of the Italian portfolio, versus 51% at the end of June 2016, with an objective of 80% by 2020.

Foncière des Régions will thus benefit from a solid Italian real estate profile, with a good balance between prime office assets mainly located in Milan, and Telecom Italia assets generating secure long-term cash flows. The Group will be able to rely on growth drivers and value-creation catalysts via a project pipeline of €780 million, 90% based in Milan, capitalising on its recognised development expertise.

Successful development model

In Italy, the Group has demonstrated the relevance of its development model based on:

  • partnerships with key accounts, which provide real estate opportunities and long-term rental security;

High investment rates in our three major European cities

At the end of September, secured investments totalled €1.4 billion Group Share. Actively present throughout its markets, Foncière des Régions is once again profiting from its recognised expertise to increase the quality and growth potential of its portfolio and rental income. Nearly 80% of its investments are concentrated in Paris, Berlin and Milan, with an average yield of 6.3%.

...................................................................................................................................................................

In France Offices (€286 million Group Share), the Group notably acquired the headquarters of the Vinci Group (38,000 m² for €129 million with a yield of 7.8%) in Rueil-Malmaison, a key business district in the Greater Paris area, in particular for large corporate groups. The policy of focusing on an active development pipeline continued with the delivery of six projects over the year totalling 36,450 m², 93% rented, representing a cost of €207 million (€130 million Group Share).

In Italy Offices (€240 million Group Share), three new acquisitions were secured during the year for €58 million Group Share, with an average yield of 6.7%. This further reinforced the Group's position in Milan's prominent business districts. In particular, a new office building totalling 10,500 m² was secured during the 3 rd quarter for €24.5 million (€13 million Group Share) with an average yield of 6.9%. In addition, during the year, the Group doubled its development pipeline to €139 million Group Share, mostly in Milan.

In German Residential, acquisitions totalling €321 million Group Share were realized since the beginning of the year, 72% in Berlin. In the 3rd quarter, €140 million of assets Group Share were secured, for a gross yield of 4.7% and 6.0% based on market rents (30% higher than existing rents). Most of the assets are located in the centre of Berlin and in the dynamic cities of Hamburg, Düsseldorf and Cologne.

Moreover, in Hotels in Europe (€512 million Group Share), Foncière des Régions increased its exposure in profitable European markets, through investments of €295 million Group Share, nearly 80% of which in the fast-growing German market. Foncière des Régions also increased its stake in its hotel subsidiary FDM. Following the public exchange offer, its holding increased to 49.9%, versus 43.1% previously. This represents assets worth €217 million.

Moreover, the quality of the portfolio and the growth potential were further improved through €454 million of new disposal agreements and €786 million of completed disposals Group Share. Since the beginning of the year, the Group reduced its exposure to non-core residential in France and North Rhine-Westphalia, and to Accor hotels in France. In addition, it pulled out of the Healthcare segment with a 25% margin on the appraisal value.

Rental activity: ongoing positive trend in the 3rd quarter

...................................................................................................................................................................

Since the beginning of the year, new leases were signed for over 100,000 m², of which over 57,000 m² in Italy Offices. This represents €25 million (€18 million group Share) of new rental income for the group, most of which will take effect on the delivery of the assets under development, in 2017 and 2018.

The strong rental performance achieved in the 1st half-year carried on in the 3rd quarter. In France Offices, Foncière des Régions signed new leases for more than 16,000 m², in particular for buildings in the development pipeline like Silex1 in Lyon (+ 1,600 m²) and Calypso in Marseille (+ 1,400 m²).

In addition, leases covering 441,000 m² were renewed YTD, accounting for 24% of annualised rental income from France Offices, with an average rise of 1.2% on existing rents.

In Italy Offices, Foncière des Régions reinforced its plan to improve the occupancy rate in its portfolio excluding the Telecom Italia buildings (91.0% rented). Launched at the end of 2015, this plan targets capex of €37 million Group Share and additional rental income of €10 million Group Share. So far, 44% of the rental income has been secured. During the quarter, the Group pre-let 6,700 m² of the Corso Ferrucci building (45,600 m²) in Turin and signed a lease with the Meininger hotel group for Monte Titano (6,000 m²) in Milan, an office building to be transformed into a hotel.

Rental income up 3.8% at end-September

...................................................................................................................................................................

At the end of September, rental income amounted to €674 million (€431 million Group Share), up 3.8% over the year. This good performance was attributable to:

  • ....Deliveries of assets in 2015 and acquisitions in 2016 in France Offices (4.4% increase in rental income)

  • ....A large number of acquisitions in 2015 and 2016 in German Residential (+15%)

  • ....An increase in Hotel assets in Europe (+2.9%).

The 4.3% drop in rental income in Italy was due to the disposals completed in 2015.

On a like-for-like basis, rental income remained stable against a backdrop of zero inflation. The underperformance of the Hotel segment due to the terrorist attacks (-3.7% of which -9.3% on variable AccorHotels rents) was offset by strong performance in German Residential (+3.1% of which +5.0% in Berlin). In Italy (-0.2% on a like-for-like basis), the 2.1% growth on the portfolio excluding Telecom Italia reflects the first positive effects of the occupancy rate improvement plan.

The Group's occupancy rate remains high, at 96.4%, with an average firm lease term of 7.3 years.

2016 guidance revised upwards

...................................................................................................................................................................

With vigorous investment activity and ongoing rental success, the first nine months of the year confirmed our position in each of our asset categories and strengthened our foundations for continuing growth. Foncière des Régions can rely on a development pipeline of €3.0 billion, Group Share, of which €669 million to be delivered by 2018.

On the strength of these successes, reflected in solid operational indicators, the Group has, from now on, an objective of a 2016 Recurring Net Income increase per share of around 2% compared to a stable guidance previously.

Quai 8.2 in Bordeaux, a new 43,000 m² mixed real estate project, close to the forthcoming high-speed railway station

Development of a programme comprising offices, hotels, retail units and student accommodation by ANF Immobilier and VINCI Immobilier

Investment by ANF Immobilier and Foncière des Régions in all of the offices and retail units, i.e. 31,500 m²

The Quai Ilot 8.2 real estate project in Bordeaux is located in the heart of the Armagnac business hub, planned by the Etablissement Public d'Aménagement (urban planning public institution) Bordeaux Euratlantique, close to the forthcoming high-speed railway station due to be inaugurated in 2017, which will link Bordeaux to Paris in two hours. It comprises 29,500 m² of offices, 3,000 m² of retail space, 2 hotels totalling 237 rooms and a student residence with 125 units, over a total area of 43,000 m².

The land was acquired from Bordeaux Euratlantique by the promoters ANF Immobilier (50%) and VINCI Immobilier (50%). Construction started in early September and delivery of the completed project is foreseen in 2018. This ambitious and attractive project was designed by the architects Reichen et Roberts & Associés, Ateliers 2/3/4 and MCVD.

The 43,000 m² project is aiming for both HQE "Excellent" and BREEAM "Very Good" certification.

An alliance of skills on a large-scale project in the Bordeaux metropolitan area:

ANF Immobilier, a commercial property investor operating in Bordeaux, Lyon and Marseille, VINCI Immobilier, a major player in property promotion in France, and Foncière des Régions, a key investor and developer in Europe, have teamed up to combine their expertise on this project. In late August 2016, ANF Immobilier, as investor, signed a partnership with Foncière des Régions to acquire offices and retail units. The two partners acquired these properties off-plan, 30% pre-let to Orange and Allianz Vie through 9-year firm leases. ANF Immobilier and Foncière des Régions will retain 65% and 35% of the investment respectively.

In addition, ANF Immobilier Hotels, a partnership between ANF Immobilier (51%), Eurazeo (35%) and Caisse d'Epargne Provence-Alpes Corse (14%), acquired the 126-room 3-star hotel with a commitment from the operator B&B. The 4-star hotel (111 rooms) will be operated by the Golden Tulip brand.

Lastly, the student residence will be managed by Student Factory, a subsidiary of VINCI Immobilier.

The acquisition of the offices, retail units and 3-star hotel was carried out with financing from Caisse d'Epargne Provence-Alpes-Corse, Crédit Foncier de France and Caisse d'Epargne Aquitaine Poitou-Charentes.

PRESS RELEASE Marseille, 9 June 2016

Official opening of the Calypso office building and the Golden Tulip Marseille Euromed hotel****

A major new stage in the development of the Euromed Center

After two years of work, the joint investors, Crédit Agricole Assurances and Foncière des Régions, along with the joint real estate developers, Altarea Cogedim and Crédit Agricole Immobilier, are officially opening the new Calypso office building and the Golden Tulip Marseille Euromed hotel. This is a key stage in the development of the Euromed Center project confirming its appeal and demonstrating its role in transforming the urban landscape of Marseille.

With its model and pioneering project planning, Euromed Center is today entering a new phase in its development. Following the delivery and leasing in 2015 of some 15,000 m² of the first office building, Astrolabe, the project is continuing and the partners are today officially opening two new significant developments.

The second office building in the cluster, Calypso, today runs the length of the Boulevard Euroméditerranée. With its six floors and 9,200 m², the building is truly an urban landmark with its shimmering gold façade. Its open views over the Mediterranean landscape and the Jardin d'Arenc garden at its feet, together with its flexible space bathed in natural light, make Calypso the location of choice for public and private organisations seeking high quality work spaces which fit their requirements.

In line with the neighbourhood's innovative aspirations in planning terms, Calypso embodies the project stakeholders' vision of a building for tomorrow. The building's ground and first floors will very shortly be offering spaces for collaborative working that blend co-working and flexible office space and provide a warm and contemporary ambiance. The building will also enjoy the ample range of services provided by Euromed Center and which are available to all tenants.

Calypso's first tenants will move in during the coming months. The building is currently 30% rented and discussions about the remaining space are ongoing.

Connected to the Calypso and overlooking the Place Henri Verneuil, the Golden Tulip Marseille Euromed hotel opened its doors on 18 April 2016. As the hotel chain's second establishment in Marseille and an essential component of the new neighbourhood, the four-star hotel with 210 rooms and suites occupies nine floors with a surface area of 10,000 m². The establishment offers a new approach to hotel accommodation that meets both new business tourism and also leisure needs. Golden Tulip Marseille Euromed has opted for contemporary décor, strongly reflecting the inspiration provided by its Mediterranean setting. This approach inculcates a sense of well-being and immerses the guests in the atmosphere of southern France where heat, sun, light and wind all meet.

The ambition of the Golden Tulip Marseille Euromed hotel is moreover to be a part of the Joliette quartier's living space and, in particular, has:

  • a 162-cover restaurant directed by the chef Cyrille Repetto with a menu prepared in collaboration with Michelin-starred chef, Philippe Renard,

  • two bars (on the ground floor and on level 2),

  • a well-being centre (on level 2) with indoor swimming pool, fitness centre, lounge bar and large terrace (160 m²),

  • a 400 m² flexible seminar centre.

At the same time, the other components of the Euromed Center programme are progressing. The Hermione (10,600 m²) and Floréal (13,700 m²) office buildings are under construction with delivery dates of mid-2017 and end 2017 respectively. Situated opposite the Jardin d'Arenc garden, the future EuropaCorp Cinémas La Joliette multiplex will be situated in the pedestrian mall extension. With more than 2,800 seats and 14 screens, EuropaCorp Cinémas La Joliette will be a welcoming, modern and unusual new venue. Work will begin in the second half of 2016 with the provisional opening date set for mid-2018.

In future, the neighbourhood as a whole, together with the pedestrian mall and its 2,000 m² of retail outlets, will provide a vibrant living space open to everyone - office workers, hotel residents, multiplex customers, local residents and visitors from all walks of life.

Two new directors join the Board of Directors of Foncière des Régions

Following the General Meeting, which was held in Paris on 27 April 2016, the Board of Directors of Foncière des Régions welcomed two new members: Patricia Savin and Catherine Soubie. With these appointments, women occupy 40% of the seats on Board of Directors of Foncière des Régions, and 60% of its members are independent.

PRESS RELEASE

Acquisition of an office complex let to Vinci in the heart of the Greater Paris region

Foncière des Régions has purchased the head office of the Vinci Group in the heart of one of the most dynamic business districts of Greater Paris, Rueil-sur-Seine in Rueil-Malmaison.

The offices complex is located next to the Rueil-Malmaison station of the RER (the Paris regional rapid transit system) and is visible from the A86 motorway. It currently comprises 36,000 m² of floor space split between three independent buildings, ideally located in the heart of Rueil-sur-Seine, and 978 car parks.

With 750,000 m² of office space occupied by over 180 companies, Rueil-sur-Seine is one of the most dynamic and attractive business poles in Greater Paris for large corporate groups to locate their premises.

With this investment (of around €129 million, rights included), Foncière des Régions has guaranteed rental income for 4 years (€10 million per year, representing an immediate yield of 7.8%). The group will take advantage of this period to define the redevelopment of the site to be implemented after the departure of the Vinci Group.

Foncière des Régions will thus deliver a new flexible and innovative building complex by 2022, corresponding to best market standards. This will improve asset quality and strengthen the group's exposure to an area popular with key accounts.

"With this acquisition, Foncière des Régions again illustrates its ability to position itself in complex real estate transactions, in which it can utilise its know-how as an integrated real estate operator to generate value over the duration of the project", emphasised Olivier Estève, Deputy General Manager of Foncière des Régions.

This move also strengthens the group's territorial coverage of the major services areas in Paris such as Saint-Denis (delivery of Green Corner in 2015), Levallois-Perret (acquisition of Oméga B at the end of 2015, development of the Thaïs complex under way), Issy-les-Moulineaux (redevelopment and extension of the Edo complex in progress) and Paris-Gare-de-Lyon (ongoing redevelopment of the Traversière complex). The attraction of these areas is characterised by their excellent rental income/quality relationship and very good road and public transport connections (Paris underground/RER).

PRESS RELEASE Paris, 7 April 2016

Official opening of two new Pullman and ibis Styles hotels in the heart of Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport

On 6 April 2016, Foncière des Régions and Crédit Agricole Assurances, together with AccorHotels, the world's leading hotel operator, opened two new 3 and 4-star hotels in the heart of the Roissy air transport hub.

Present at the opening were Joël Sonnes – Manager of the Pullman Paris Roissy CDG Airport hotel, Damien Raphanel – Manager of the ibis Styles Paris CDG Airport Roissy hotel, Sophie Etchandy-Stabile – CEO of HotelServices AccorHotels France, Emeric Servin – Senior Advisor Real Estate at Crédit Agricole Assurances and Dominique Ozanne – CEO Hotels & Hospitality Management at Foncière des Régions and Chairman of FDM Management.

In 2014, Foncière des Régions (for both hotels) and Crédit Agricole Assurances, (for the ibis Styles Paris Roissy CDG Airport hotel) acquired this off-plan project from Eiffage. The Pullman Paris Roissy CDG Airport hotel is operated under a management agreement signed by AccorHotels and Foncière des Régions for a 20 year term. The ibis Styles Paris CDG Airport Roissy hotel is subject to a 12-year lease agreement, signed among the partners, under a joint investment with Crédit Agricole Assurances.

This major hotel project, delivered in November 2015 and designed by Arte Charpentier Architectes, includes more than 600 rooms spread across 27,300 m².

"With this new transaction, Foncière des Régions is strengthening its long-term partnership with AccorHotels, reaffirming its position as the European leader in hotel real estate. We have invested nearly €780 million in this market during 2015 and intend to continue in this direction through 2016, thanks to our unique range of expertise, which includes turnkey developments, sale and leaseback transactions, leases and management agreements," emphasised Dominique Ozanne, CEO Hotels & Hospitality Management at Foncière des Régions and Chairman of FDM Management.

"For Credit Agricole Assurances, a long-term investor, these two hotels exemplify the pursuit of its real estate investment diversification strategy, particularly in an asset class offering an attractive and secure risk/return ratio with key partners, each an expert in their respective fields," explained Emeric Servin, Senior Advisor Real Estate at Crédit Agricole Assurances.

The Paris-Charles de Gaulle hub: the leading airport in France, 2nd in Europe and 8th worldwide

The hotel complex enjoys an exceptional location at the centre of the airport. It is located only 50 m from the RER B train station with direct pedestrian access. Pedestrians also have easy access to all airport terminals and the TGV station, just minutes away via the CDGVAL automatic shuttle.

Both hotels, connected to the area's energy grid (heating, cooling, electricity) to achieve optimised and environmentally-responsible pooling of energy consumption, received the HQE "Very Good" certification and the BBC-effinergie label.

Pullman Paris Roissy CDG Airport

AccorHotels group hired architect-designer Christophe Pillet to design this high-end, comfortable hotel, which exemplifies enjoyment and relaxation, and offers travellers a distinctive experience. The designer created a sophisticated and elegant space using pure and simple lines, where light plays a leading role.

Its 305 rooms and suites, created in soft and natural tones, combine functionality and elegance for optimal comfort, ensuring that guests feel at home during their stay.

The well-lit, flexible business centre was designed to promote dialogue and can be adapted to all types of meetings, and includes the distinctive Business Playground by Pullman. Developed by the designer Matthieu Lehanneur, this unique space is ideally suited for brainstorming sessions and creative meetings.

The Pullman Paris Roissy CDG Airport is also a perfect stop for food lovers. At his restaurant, "Culinaire Bazaar", Chef Thierry Coutable offers authentic, inviting cuisine with a focus on beef, poultry and fish.

The Fitlounge, which offers a swimming pool, and the Fitness Center are perfect spots to unwind after work or a long journey.

ibis Styles Paris CDG Airport Roissy

This new hotel, designed by the Blanchet d'Istria firm, fully embodies the relaxed and playful style of the ibis Styles brand. Its futuristic and inviting space-themed design entices the hotel's guests to embark on a journey.

Its 305 rooms, decorated with a luminous back-lit moon at the head of the bed, are conceived as timeless capsules, creating a sense of weightlessness.

The ibis Styles Paris CDG Airport Roissy offers a fresh soup bar and a restaurant, Foody's Planet, with an international land travel theme offering flavours from around the world. The hotel is ideally suited for families and includes a play area for children.

(1) Excluding Logistics (€10 million in H1-2015 – €3 million in H1-2016) – classified as discontinued operations.

Rental income increased by 5.9% (Group share) over one year, including +6.8% for strategic activities. This €15.9 million increase is due primarily to the following factors:

  • an increase in Hotel real estate with a rise in Foncière des Murs' ownership rate in 2016 (+€2.0 million)
  • acquisitions (+€19.4 million), especially in Germany Residential (+€13.3 million), where the Group strengthened its position in Berlin through several asset portfolios with high growth potential
  • deliveries of neassets (+€8.7 million), mainly in France Offices
  • releases of assets intended to be restructured or redeveloped (-€1.1 million)
  • non-core asset disposals (-€16.5 million), particularly in Germany Residential (-€6.0 million)
  • indexation and the mixed effect from departures and re-lettings (-€0.7 million), of which vacating of France Residential (-€0.6 million).

At like-for-like scope, rental income remained stable in a context of zero inflation. The performance of France Offices was very slightly negative, at -0.3% at like-for-like scope, due to the lack of a general recovery in market rent levels. For Italy Offices, the - 0.8% decrease is due to the residual effect of the renegotiation of Telecom Italia leases in Italy in 2015 (extension of the leases to a term of 15 years firm in return for a 6.9% decrease in rental income). Rental income increased by 2.6% for Italy Offices, excluding Telecom Italia.

The drop in rental income at like-for-like scope in the Hotels and Service Sector (-2.1%) is due to the impact of the terrorist attacks in Paris and Brussels on AccorHotels' rental income (variable depending on the hotels' revenues). Lastly, in Germany Residential, performance at like-for-like scope accelerated (+2.9% vs. +2.4% in 2015), sustained by buoyant market conditions.

1.1.2. Lease expirations and occupancy rates

1.1.2.1. Annualised lease expirations: residual lease term of 7.5 years firm for commercial activities

TOTAL 7.3 7.5 9.3 9.3

The average residual lease term is stable at 9.3 years, and the firm residual term increased slightly, despite six months of additional activity, to a new record of 7.5 years firm. This level has seen a constant increase since the market low of 2012 (at 5.5 years firm). Average maturity improved to 5.9 years firm in the France Offices segment following leasing agreements in the half-year period, in particular renegotiations with Orange, EDF and asset deliveries. The term stabilised at a particularly high level for Italy Offices and the Hotel and Services Sector after major agreements with Telecom Italia and AccorHotels in 2015.

(1) Residential excluded.

Maturities of less than three years on firm residual terms were reduced from 24% of rental income at end-2015 to 14% at 30 June 2016, thereby improving the Group's visibility and securing cash flow in the medium term.

1.1.2.2. Occupancy rate: up at 96.7%

TOTAL 96.3% 96.7%

The occupancy rate increased slightly by 0.4 points in the first half of 2016, with in particular an increase of 2.3 points for Italy Offices, due to leases signed in the half-year period (+1.6 points) and to the increased development pipeline (positive impact of 0.7 points). The situation is stable on the other segments, with a consistently high level occupancy in Germany Residential and in the Hotels and Service Sector.

1.1.3. Breakdown of rental income – Group share

The cost to revenue ratio is still under control and showed a slight decrease over one year (7.5%). Cost to revenue for Germany Residential dropped to 11.3% (vs. 11.5% at 30 June 2015). The low level in France Offices and the Hotels and Service Sector is due to the triple-net lease structures. In Italy, cost to revenue has remained stable and does not yet reflect the recent improvement in vacancy. Lastly, cost to revenue for Other activities is due to vacancy in France Residential, associated with the policy for the gradual disposal of assets, in particular upon their being vacated.

1.1.7. Development projects

1.1.7.1. Seven projects delivered in the first half of 2016 in France Offices and Hotels

The growth in rental income in the first half of 2016 was driven by the real estate development strategy, focusing on the development pipeline.

1.1.7.2. Committed projects: €676 million in Group share, up 10%

1.2. BUSINESS ANALYSIS BY SEGMENT

1.2.1. France Offices

Frances Offices indicators are presented at 100% and as Group share (GS). Assets held partially are the following:

  • Le Ponant (83.5% owned)
  • CB 21 Tower (75% owned)
  • Carré Suffren (60% owned)

  • the Eiffage properties located at Vélizy (head office of Eiffage Construction and Eiffage Campus, head office of Eiffage Groupe) and the DS Campus (50.1% owned and fully consolidated)

  • Euromed Center 50% owned (equity method)
  • Askia, the first office building in the Cœur d'Orly project (25% owned and accounted for under the equity method).

In the first half of 2016, the France Offices segment was mainly marked by:

  • sustained activity in development projects, with in particular the delivery of four buildings, of which three are fully pre-let: their delivery thus generated €2.5 million in gross annualised rental income
  • 22% of annualised nominal rents were impacted by an Asset Management work during the half-year, including the above-mentioned agreements signed with Orange and ERDF/EDF, as well as renegotiations successfully conducted with Key Accounts such as Cisco, Thalès and IBM
  • neleases amounting to €9.1 million in rental income, in particular for projects under development such as EDO in Issyles-Moulineaux (building fully let), and Silex 1 (26% let to BNP Paribas), and for the operating portfolio, the full rental of CB21 following the lease agreement with Régus, and the signing of a firm 9-year lease with Kering for the Paris Littré premises vacated by Orange
  • ongoing enhancement of the quality of the portfolio via sales of non-core assets. Dynamic development policy with an increase in the project pipeline to €2.5 billion. Targeted acquisitions amounting to €138 million, generating €11 million in gross annualised rental income (mainly Rueil Lesseps, Head Office of Vinci in Rueil-Malmaison for €129 million)
  • a 4.4% increase in values on a like-for-like scope, reflecting the rental agreements with Key Accounts, the signing of leases on projects under development and the ongoing strong performance of strategic markets in the portfolio (Greater Paris and Major Regional Cities).

1.2.1.1.1. Geographic breakdown: strategic locations (Paris region and Major Regional Cities – MRC) generated 89% of rental income

The Group share of rental income rose to €126 million (+€9.2 million) over one year. This change is primarily the combined result of:

  • asset disposals particularly in the outer Paris suburbs and in French regions other than the Paris Region (-€3.8 million)
  • asset acquisitions and deliveries (+€11.7 million):
  • €3.7 million due to acquisitions, in particular Levallois Omega B at end-2015 and the Head Office of Vinci in Rueil-Malmaison in April 2016
  • delivery of pre-let properties accounting for €8 million including:
  • Steel in July 2015, in Paris Centre West, fully rented to One Point (effective 2016)
  • Campus Eiffage in August 2015, a turnkey project leased to Eiffage in Vélizy for 12 years firm
  • Green Corner in September 2015, in Saint-Denis, 86% leased to the French Health Authority for a term of ten years firm, effective March 2016, and to Systra
  • turnkey property rented to Bose in January 2016 in Saint-Germain-en-Laye
  • turnkey property rented to Schlumberger in February 2016 in Montpellier
  • the Golden Tulip hotel in Marseille in April 2016
  • the Calypso building in Marseille in April 2016
  • an increase at a like-for-like scope of -0.3% (-€0.8 million) related to:
    • the positive effect of indexation (+€0.3 million)
    • rental activity (-€1.1 million), with an unfavourable calendar effect in terms of the rental/vacating of premises and the slightly negative impact of 2015 renewals.

The biggest 12 tenants account for 74% of annualised rental income.

The main changes in the first half affecting Key Accounts were as follows:

  • Vinci: acquisition of the company's head office in Rueil-Malmaison
  • Orange: lowering of exposure in particular following partial sales of assets and the vacating of premises for their redevelopment
  • EDF: impacts of the renegotiation and vacating of premises rented in the Patio building in Lyon
  • Lagardère: temporary lowering of rent during construction work, as provided for in the Omega A and C leases in Levallois, renegotiated in 2015.

TOTAL 1,891,816 366 264.3 273.2 3.4% 100%

The Paris region remains the area generating the highest annualised rental income, stable vs. 2015. The increase in rental income from the Paris Centre West and Western Crescent areas is mainly due to the delivery of assets in 2015 and the acquisition of the Vinci head office.

1.2.1.3. Indexation

The indexation effect is +€0.3 million over one year. 81% of rental income is indexed to the ILAT, 18% is indexed to the ICC, while the remainder is indexed to the ILC construction cost index or the IRL rental reference index. Rents benefiting from an indexation floor (1%) represent 30% of annualised rental income and are indexed to the ILAT.

The first half-year was marked by the signing of numerous agreements and intense asset management work. Concerning the renewal and renegotiation of current leases, 22% of nominal annualised rents were impacted by an asset management procedure during the half-year, including numerous agreements signed with Key Accounts:

  • comprehensive memorandum of understanding signed with Orange covering 61 leases (€17 million in rental income) to extend their average maturity (+4.1 years). At the same time, preliminary purchase agreements were signed by Orange for eight properties totalling €23 million
  • comprehensive memorandum of understanding signed with ERDF/EDF: extension of the average firm lease term on seven properties (€5.4 million in rental income), tacit renewal for seven properties under the same terms and conditions and signing of a lease for nine years firm starting in 2018 for the Lyon Duguesclin building, including work (€1.9 million in rental income)
  • Thales: extension of the NeVélizy and TED leases: +3 years, €15 million in rental income
  • IBM in Montpellier, extended for three years, with rental income of €2.7 million
  • Cisco: renegotiation successfully conducted with a five-year extension of the lease to six years firm in exchange for a works programme.

On average, lease renegotiations and renewals resulted in a 0.9% increase on existing IFRS rents and the extension of the leases by an average of 3.3 years.

The pre-letting of assets under development continued with leases taken out for 13,570 m 2 over the first half-year, for rental income of €5.7 million and an average term of 8.6 years. In particular, this concerns the full pre-letting of the EDO building in Issyles-Moulineaux due to be delivered in 2017, for nine years firm, and the signing of agreements for 2,810 m 2 of office and commercial space in the Silex 1 building in Lyon for six years firm to BNP Paribas.

15,270 m 2 was leased out during the first half-year for rental income of €3.8 million (Group share), for an average term of 8.1 years:

  • the continuation of the leasing agreements for Euromed in Marseille, concerning the buildings delivered in 2015/2016, with the signing of a lease by RTM for 4,794 m 2 in the Astrolabe building
  • the full letting of the CB21 tower at La Défense following the leasing of 1,465 m 2 to Regus
  • the signing of a lease by Kering, for a firm nine-year term on the departure of Orange at the end of the year, for the entire surface area of the Paris Littré building on rue du Cherche-Midi.

22,720 m 2 was vacated, representing rental income of €1.1 million (mainly in Lyon and Bordeaux).

The occupancy rate remained stable compared to the end of 2015, at 95.8%. The positive impact of rental activity (new lets exceeding departures) was offset by the delivery of assets not yet fully rented, such as the Calypso building in Marseille.

1.2.1.6. Reserves for unpaid rent

New commitments (new disposals and new agreements) reflect the will to improve the quality of the portfolio. In terms of volume, 75% of these new commitments are located in non-strategic areas. They mainly consist of the following:

  • 60% of the agreements signed with Orange during the half-year, i.e. €29.7 million: implementation of the 2016 comprehensive memorandum of understanding (€22.7 million) and previous agreements (sale of part of the surface areas for €7 million)
  • the remainder, i.e. €17 million, concerns sales of small assets in the outer Paris suburbs and in French regions other than the Paris region.

Over the period, effective disposals totalled €82 million, including the full sale of 12 assets for €37 million (of which €29 million for the Fontenay-sous-Bois property) and partial sales, in particular to Orange, within the framework of the partnership agreements signed between 2012 and 2013.

The main acquisition of the half-year was the Vinci head office in Rueil-Malmaison: this acquisition will make it possible to redevelop the building complex by 2020-2021, once Vinci has vacated the premises, based on the successful model of the EDO building in Issy-les-Moulineaux. In the meantime, the asset provides a high yield of 7.8%.

In the first half-year, Foncière des Régions also made acquisitions aimed at expanding the scope of its ownership of real estate complexes it already partially owned:

  • acquisition of Cicobail's 15% stake in tranche 1 of Cap 18 for €4.8 million in January 2016: Foncière des Régions nofully owns Cap 18
  • acquisition of the last building in the Victor Hugo business park in Saint-Ouen for €3 million: Foncière des Régions noowns the entire park.

In addition, Foncière des Régions acquired additional space from Orange in certain assets for which Orange reviewed the technical volumetry, for €1.4 million, at the price stipulated in the partnership agreements with the Key Account.

1.2.1.9. Development projects: a pipeline of more than €2.5 billion

The development policy of Foncière des Régions focuses on continuing the asset enhancement work undertaken (improvement of asset quality and creation of value), supporting Key Accounts partners over the long term in the roll-out of their real estate strategy, and managing new value-creating operations in strategic locations.

In the Paris region, this strategy is deployed in areas with good public transport, in established business districts and in prime locations (e.g. the high-speed train station in the district of La Part-Dieu in Lyon, etc.) in Major Regional Cities for which the annual take-up exceeds 50,000 m 2 .

1.2.1.9.1. Projects delivered

Approximately 28,000 m 2 were delivered in the first half of 2016, including 5,100 m 2 in established Paris region business areas and 22,900 m 2 in Major Regional Cities.

For projects delivered in the first half-year, the occupancy rate stood at 73% on 30 June 2016, versus 68% at end-2015.

  • The building in Saint-Germain was delivered in January 2016 and has been fully rented to Bose since its delivery.
  • The building built for Schlumberger in Montpellier was delivered in February 2016.
  • The hotel in the Euromed Center, fully rented to Golden Tulip, was delivered in April.
  • The Calypso office building in the Euromed Center was delivered in April with a leasing rate of 29% on delivery. The successful leasing of the building next to Astrolabe (delivered in 2015 and 98% rented) and the appeal of the Euroméditerranée area, which attracts most of the demand for neoffices, point to the rapid leasing of the asset.

The Opale (30,000 m 2 ) and Canopée (47,000 m 2 ) projects in Meudon, as well as the Silex II project (30,700 m 2 ) in Lyon are currently in the pre-letting phase and are liable to be launched, depending on the leasing agreements that may ensue.

A demolition permit was obtained in June 2016 for the asset located on Avenue de la Marne in Montrouge, purchased at the end of 2015.

The launch of the turnkey development of 10,400 m 2 for ERDF in Reims is scheduled for the second half of the year. The building permit was obtained in January 2016.

At the beginning of July, Foncière des Régions entered into a partnership with another REIT for the off-plan acquisition of a complex of three new office buildings in Bordeaux Armagnac at the foot of the future high-speed rail line.

Several turnkey rental projects are under study in the Pompignane business park in Montpellier, with launches scheduled between end-2016 and 2018, for total office space of nearly 58,000 m 2 .

Lastly, studies have been launched on certain assets in the operating portfolio, with a view to potential redevelopments in the medium/long term, particularly at Omega Levallois, Arago Paris (17th arrondissement) and Cap 18 in Paris (18th arrondissement).

On a like-for-like basis, values rose 4.4% in the first half-year, mainly due to the rise in values in the Paris region, especially in Paris, as well as the leasing agreements signed over the period.

The yield on the operating portfolio stands at 5.8%, a drop of 20 bps vs. year-end 2015 as a result of the compression of the rates and the improvement in portfolio quality.

Assets under development accounted for 9% of the France Offices portfolio (Group Share). On a like-for-like basis, values rose 10.4%, of which +20% on committed projects.

1.2.1.11. Strategic asset segmentation

  • The "Core" portfolio corresponds to a strategic grouping of key assets, consisting of resilient properties providing longterm 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 neinvestments.
  • The portfolio of "assets under development" consists of assets for which a "committed" (appraised) development project has been initiated, the land reserve that may be undergoing appraisal, and the assets freed for short/medium term development, i.e. "managed" (undergoing internal valuation). Such assets will become "core assets" once delivered.

Non-core assets form a portfolio compartment with a higher average yield than that of the office portfolio, with smaller, liquid assets in local markets, allowing their possible progressive sale. Note: all assets under preliminary sales agreements are automatically classed in this category.

The "Core" portfolio was up by 5 points over the year and represented, at the end of June 2016, 80% of the portfolio, particularly following the four deliveries in the half-year, acquisitions and the increase in value of the Parisian assets.

With the addition of Montrouge Marne, the portfolio of "assets under development" now amounts to €482 million, accounting for 9% of total assets.

The "Non-core" portfolio continued its downward trend and accounted for 11% of the portfolio (Group share) at the year-end, down 2 points in comparison to year-end 2015, particularly due to disposals.

1.2.2. Italy offices

Listed on the Milan stock exchange since 1999, Beni Stabili is the largest listed Italian property firm and is a 52.2% subsidiary of Foncière des Régions versus 48.5% at the end of December 2015. The figures are disclosed as 100%. Beni Stabili is consolidated at 50.12% in the H1 2016 P&L of Foncière des Régions.

Its assets consist largely of offices located in cities in northern and central Italy, particularly Milan. The company has a portfolio of €4.0 billion at 30 June 2016.

Between the first half of 2015 and the first half of 2016, rental income decreased by €11.6 million, or -10.5%, primarily due to:

  • Asset disposals: -€8.2 million
  • The impact of the vacating of premises and of the indexation (particularly the impact of the vacating of an asset located in Milan – Via Cernaia in January 2016, which entered in development in 2016): -€4.4 million
  • The signing in Q2 2015 of a major agreement with Telecom Italia for renewal on all of its leases (€117 million in rent) for 15 years firm in return of a decrease in rents of 6.9%. In this first of half 2016 TI renegotiation impact is -€1.9 million
  • The acquisition of Milano Corso Italia: +€ 1.1 million
  • Re-letting/necontracts for +€3.7 million.

The change at a like-for-like scope of -0.8% is mainly due to the renegotiation with Telecom Italia. Excluding TI Portfolio, the change at like-for-like is +2.3%, thanks to an increase in occupancy.

Nearly 83% of rents come from assets located in the North of Italia and in Rome. Milan, where the Group intends to focus on, represents close to 42% of the rents (vs. 40.7% in December 2015).

1.2.2.3. Indexation

The annual indexation in rental income is usually calculated by taking 75% of the increase in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) applied on each anniversary of the signing date of the agreement. In 2016, the average change in the IPC index was -0.2% over six months, nevertheless, this decrease did not apply as all leases are protected against negative indexation.

1.2.2.4. Rental activity

During the first half of 2016, rental activity can be summarized as follows:

Annualised

(€/m2

Vacating 10,647 3.6 342
Letting 19,348 5.1 262
Letting Development 16,000 4.8 300
Renewal 17,196 5.9 342

The main new leases relate to the Via Dante property in Milan, with new tenant – Arav Fashion (topped up rent of €1.28 million) and to Via Durini Mc Donald's – topped up rent €1 million. Another important transaction has been signed for Via Messina, Tower D and Tower B with new tenant Widiba (Topped up rent €1.2 million – 6,530 m 2 ) with start in September and in October 2016.

On the development pipeline side, the company FastWeb signed a 10.5 years lease, pre-letting 16,000 m 2 of the 19,000 m 2 of the Symbiosis building in Milan. Fastweb also has an option to let the remaining 3,000 m 2 .

Renewed leases consist mainly of the renewals of Galleria del Corso – Gruppo Coin, in the city-center of Milan. The structure of the rent has been renegotiated, with the fixed part decreasing and the variable part increasing.

The change in vacated premises mainly results from the departure of the Via Cernaia tenant (Intesa) in Milan (7,497 m 2 ) in January 2016 and the Viale Industria asset tenant (CVG Moda; in Vigevano, 1,117 m 2 ). The first asset is now under development and the delivery is envisaged for Q3 2017.

1.2.2.8. Acquisitions: €85 million secured

At 30 June 2016, €85 million in acquisitions in Milan had been secured with property transfers set to take place during the second half of 2016. Those acquisitions reinforce the focus on Milan and the quality of the portfolio. The Group intends to create value through an active asset management work:

  • Acquisition of two towers of 11,800 m 2 in Via Messina, Milan, for €26.8 million and 6.8% potential yield (6.1% immediate yield at current occupancy level). The Group, which already own the two first towers, is thus owner of the whole complex of 25,000 m 2 . The two towers, located in front of the subway station Cernisio, include one hotel let to B&B (19-year firm) and 6,539 m 2 of offices (61% let)
  • Acquisition of 22,000 m 2 of offices in Via Scarsellini in Milan, for €58 million and 6.4% yield. The asset, built in 2010 and located nearby Affori Centro subway station, is let at 82% for 6.5 years, mainly to Aviva, and benefit also from twoyears rental guarantee on vacant space.

1.2.2.9.1. Committed projects: an increase of €120 million, to €266 million mainly in Milan

Five development projects were launched, two of them were started in 2015 and three new projects in Milan were added this last semester:

  • the first phase of the Symbiosis development project. The entire project potentially involves 125,000 m 2 in 12 necommercial buildings located at the southern limit of central Milan, across from the nePrada Foundation. The progressive development of the area should require a total of €250 million in capex. The initial work started in 2015. The Group launched the first phase for 19,000 m 2 and already pre-let 16,000 m 2 to Fastweb (+ option to let the remaining 3,000 m 2 )
  • the redevelopment project on the existing Ferrucci asset, located in Turin, with a delivery timeframe of 2020
  • the redevelopment project on the existing Piazza Monte Titano asset, located in Milan. The delivery is expected in Q3- 2017
  • the redevelopment project on the asset located in Milan, Via Colonna, whose delivery is expected in 3Q-2017

The portfolio amounted to €3.96 billion at 30 June 2016, an increase of €58 million over the semester mainly due to like-for-like growth in appraisal values and to the acquisition of Corso Italia in Milan CBD. The increase in the development portion of the portfolio is particularly associated with the reclassification of the Vittorio Colonna asset (€12 million), the Piazza Monte Titano asset (€13 million), the Via Cernaia asset (€43 million), previously part of the Core portfolio. The Via Spalato asset (in Turin) was also reclassified from the development portfolio in the Core portfolio.

The portfolio value increased by 1.5% at a like-for-like scope in the first half of 2016, thanks to the increase in Offices ex-TI (+3.1%). The Telecom Italia portfolio shows a slight decrease of 0.3%, mostly due to the increase in the Land Tax for some assets. In Milan, the values increase by +3% like-for-like on average.

1.2.3.1.1. Breakdown by business sector

At 30 June 2016, consolidated rental income totalled €100.9 million (at 100%), an increase of 2% (€2 million) from 30 June 2015.

This change was partly due to the different movements over the portfolio:

  • acquisitions and deliveries of assets under development, which increased rental income by €6 million
  • additional rental income following works to the Quick portfolio (+€0.1 million)
  • disposals of non-core assets (mainly AccorHotels and Korian properties) that impacted rental income negatively in the amount of €2.1 million.

The 2.1% like-for-like decline in rental income is due to the decrease in performance by AccorHotels properties (down 4.8%, indexed to hotel revenue) following the terrorist attacks in Paris and Brussels. In the AccorHotels portfolio, rental income fell 14% in Paris but rose 4% in the rest of France.

In the first half, the Group continued to pursue its investment policy focusing on assets in Europe's largest cities. This resulted in an increase in rental income abroad, linked to acquisitions and deliveries carried out in Germany in 2015 as well as the acquisition of four B&B Hotels properties in Spain in the first half of 2016.

1.2.3.3. Indexation

56% of the rental income is indexed to benchmark indices. Indexation had a limited impact in 2016 given the movement in benchmark indices, (ICC, ILC).

AccorHotels revenues, to which 36% of rental income was indexed, resulted in a €2 million decrease in rents in the first half of 2016. This percentage will continue to decline with the sale of three assets for which a preliminary sales agreement has already been signed, due to be completed by the end of 2016, for €107 million.

In the first half, Foncière des Régions maintained its strategy focusing on assets in Europe's largest cities, thus completing the acquisitions of:

  • four B&B Hotels properties in Spain for €11 million, with firm 15-year leases
  • a portfolio of nine hotels, located in northern France and in Belgium, acquired as hotel operating properties, for €125 million (€51 million FDM share of affiliates).

The Group also secured the acquisition, via its autonomous subsidiary FDM Management (40.8% owned by FDM), which invests in hotel properties and business goodwill, of a portfolio of properties located mainly in Berlin, Dresden and Leipzig for €811 million (at 100%). This portfolio consists of nine four- and five-star hotels, with a total of 4,131 rooms, as well as 18,000 m 2 of street-level retail space, 88% of which is located in Berlin, and 70,000 m 2 of additional land at Alexanderplatz, Berlin.

In the first half of 2016, Foncière des Régions supported the development of B&B in France and Germany with the delivery of three new hotels. Two other hotels, located in Hamburg and Potsdam in Germany, will be delivered in the second half of 2016. Lastly, four hotels pre-let to B&B Hotels will be delivered in 2017 and 2018:

  • a 140-room hotel in Berlin
  • three hotels in France, offering a total of 390 rooms.

In addition, Foncière des Régions is maintaining its strategy to support the expansion efforts of its new partners in Europe's largest cities, including the following initiatives:

  • the development of hotels under the Meininger brand in Munich and of a Motel One property at Porte Dorée in Paris, launched in 2015 with deliveries scheduled for the first half of 2018
  • the development of a Meininger hotel at Porte de Vincennes in Paris. This 249-room hotel, which is in keeping with the German hotel group's strategy to build its presence in France, will open its doors in the second half of 2018.

1.2.4. Germany Residential

Foncière des Régions operates in the Residential sector in Germany via its 60.9%-owned subsidiary, Immeo SE. The Company owns over 42,400 units, located mostly in Berlin, Hamburg, Dresden, Leipzig and North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW).

The strategy pursued by Foncière des Régions for this business is to diversify the geographic distribution of its assets and expand its presence in Berlin as well as other dynamic and attractive cities.

From an operational point of view, the first half of 2016 was marked by dynamic acquisition activity with €260 million in operations signed, with persistently strong organic growth, in a still favourable economic and demographic climate in Germany.

The figures presented are divided into 100% Immeo, and Foncière des Régions Group share.

TOTAL 2,879,559 42,361 91.6 55.3 105.9 65.3 18.0% 2.9% 100%

Rental income came to €65.3 million in the first half of 2016, compared to €55.3 million in the first half of 2015 (FDR GS).

This 18% increase is attributable to the impact of disposals, as well as a steady flow of acquisitions in 2015 (€871 million at 100%) and an increase in rents at like-for-like scope, which came to +2.9% over one year, bolstered mainly by the good performance of the Berlin portfolio (+5.3%).

Berlin, Hamburg, Dresden and Leipzig now account for 52% of the rental income recorded, versus 39% at 31 December 2015.

The 1% increase in annualised rental income reflects the portfolio rotation strategy:

  • disposals in North Rhine-Westphalia (-12%)
  • acquisitions in high-growth markets (+15%), particularly Berlin, which accounts for 41% of annualised rental income.

1.2.4.3. Indexation

The rental income from residential premises in Germany changes according to three mechanisms:

1.2.4.3.1. Rents for re-leased properties

In principle, rents may be increased freely, although not excessively.

As an exception to this principle of freedom in the setting of rents, some cities have introduced caps on rents for re-leased properties. This is the case, in particular, for Berlin (effective 1 June 2015), Hamburg (effective 1 July 2015) and a number of cities in North Rhine-Westphalia where FDR has relatively few or no assets (effective 1 July 2015).

In these cities, rents for re-leased properties cannot exceed by more than 10% a rent reference. If construction works result in an increase in the value of the property (cost of work amounting to more than 30% of the residence value), the rent for re-let property may be increased by a maximum of 11% of the cost of the work. In the event of complete modernisation, the rent may be increased freely.

1.2.4.3.2. For current leases

The current rent may be increased by 15% to 20% depending on the region, although without exceeding the Mietspiegel, the appraisal value or the average rent for a minimum of at least three comparables. This increase may only be applied every three years.

1.2.4.3.3. For current leases with work done

In the event that works are carried out, 11% of refurbishment costs may be passed onto the new rent and as indicated in the Mietspiegel. This increase is subject to two conditions:

  • the works involved must increase the value of the property
  • the tenant must be notified of this rent increase within three months.

1.2.4.4. Occupancy rate

(%) 2015 H1 2016
Berlin 98.1% 98.1%
Dresden & Leipzig 98.2% 97.7%
Hamburg 99.1% 99.1%
NRW 97.7% 98.0%
TOTAL 98.0% 98.1%

In the first half of 2016, the occupancy rate for operating assets remained at the high level of 98.1%, stable by comparison with the end of 2015.

The first half of 2016 was particularly active with €190 million (€116 million Group Share) in new commitments signed, of which 46.2% in Berlin, with a total average gross margin of +9.1%.

At 30 June 2016, asset disposals amounted to €193 million. These disposals mainly involved non-core assets in North Rhine-Westphalia, in line with the portfolio re-allocation strategy.

The Group continued its geographical repositioning in Berlin with €260 million (at 100%) in investments made at 30 June 2016, mainly consisting of centrally located buildings, with a 4.9% yield and a rent reversion potential of around 40%:

  • acquisition of assets for €165 million, consisting of 945 high-quality residential units (86% of the assets in terms of value), fully renovated and mainly located in sought-after districts in the centre of Berlin such as Mitte, Friedrichshain and Prenzlauerberg
  • acquisition of a real estate complex made up of 117 residential units (19% of the value), 10,700 m 2 of office and commercial premises (40% of the value) and a four-star Novotel hotel with 238 rooms. The €76.4 million asset is located in the heart of the Mitte district (Fischerinsel 12)

At 30 June 2016, the portfolio was valued at €2,334 million, up from €2,175 million at end-2015. This change was due to the following:

  • the impact of disposals (-€115 million)
  • the impact of acquisitions (+€182 million)
  • value adjustment (+€66 million).

During the half-year, CAPEX amounted to €20 million (€7/m2 , 60% dedicated to modernisation) while OPEX totalled €7 million (€2.5/m2 ). By comparison, for the whole of 2015, the Group's CAPEX amounted to €32 million (€18.7/m2 , more than 70% dedicated to modernisation) while its OPEX totalled €9 million (€5.0/m 2 ), thus improving the quality of the assets and increasing the growth potential of rental income.

Rental income amounted to €8.2 million at 30 June 2016, down from €11.7 million a year earlier. This change was due mainly to:

  • the impact of the continuation of the disposal strategy (-€2.6 million)
  • the impact of vacant properties facilitating unit sales (-€1 million)
  • the impact of indexation (+€0.1 million).

1.2.5.1.5. Portfolio value up 0.2% at like-for-like scope

At 30 June 2016, the portfolio of Residential assets in France and Luxembourg is valued at €540 million, showing a slight 0.2% increase at like-for-like scope.

This increase is mainly due to an asset being transferred from a block value to an occupied retail value pursuant to a disposal commitment obtained on this asset. The increase is also due to the compression of the capitalisation rates used by experts on some assets.

1.3. FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND COMMENTS

The activity of Foncière des Régions consists of the acquisition, ownership, administration and leasing of properties, developed or otherwise, specifically in the Office, Residential, Hotels & Service Sectors, and to a more limited extent, in the Logistics sites and Car Parks sectors.

Registered in France, Foncière des Régions is a limited company (société anonyme) with a Board of Directors.

1.3.1. Scope of consolidation

At 30 June 2016, the scope of consolidation of Foncière des Régions included companies in France and in several other European countries (Offices: Italy; Residential: Germany, Austria, Denmark; Hotels & Service Sector: Germany, Portugal, Belgium, Netherlands, Spain and Luxembourg). The main ownership interests in the fully consolidated but not wholly-owned companies are the following:

Subsidiaries H1 2015 2015 H1 2016
Foncière Développement Logements 61.3% 61.3% 61.3%
Foncière des Murs 43.1% 43.1% 49.6%

OPCI CB 21 (Tour CB 21) 75.0% 75.0% 75.0%

SCI 11, place de l'Europe (Campus Eiffage) 50.1% 50.1% 50.1%
Lénovilla (New Vélizy) 50.1% 50.1% 50.1%

Foncière des Régions increased its stake in Foncière des Murs following its contribution in kind of shares of FDM in exchange for FDR shares equal to 4.3% of the share capital of FDM. The stake in Foncière des Murs thus increased from 43.15% to 47.45% during the second quarter. This contribution in kind was followed by a mandatory public exchange offer. At the close of the first public exchange offer (28 June 2016), 2.1% of FDM's capital was acquired, increasing the stake to 49.63%. FDM was thus integrated in the income statement of Foncière des Régions at 43.15% for the first quarter and at 45.3% for the second quarter, and recorded at 49.6% in the balance sheet.

Foncière des Régions increased its stake in Beni Stabili. The average stake in Beni Stabili was 50.12% over the period (used in the income statement) and was 52.24% at 30 June 2016.

1.3.2. Accounting standards

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the international accounting standards issued by the IASB (International Accounting Standards Board) and adopted by the European Union on the date of preparation. These standards include the IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards), as well as their interpretations. The financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 21 July 2016.

1.3.3.1. Net rental income increase of 5.6% in Group share

Net rental income changed owing to the combined effects of increases in the Foncière des Régions' stakes in Foncière des Murs and Beni Stabili, and the acquisitions/disposals and delivery of properties.

Net rental income by operating segment is the following:

Group Share – (€M) H1 2015 H1 2016 Var. %
Offices – France 111.2 118.4 7.2 6.5%
Offices – Italy 44.4 41.1 -3.3 -7.4%

Residential Germany 48.9 57.9 9.0 18.4%
Residential France 4.7 2.9 -1.8 -38.3%
TOTAL NET RENTAL INCOME 248.0 261.9 13.9 5.6%

France Offices: Increase of €8 million in net rental income due to delivery of assets under development.

Italy Offices: Decrease of €4 million in rental income linked mainly to the disposal of Telecom Italia assets.

Hotels & Service Sector: Increase of €2.2 million in net rental income related to acquisitions.

Germany Residential: Increase of €14 million in rental income related to acquisitions and rental activity, less the impact of disposals (-€4 million).

1.3.3.2. Net operating costs

Net operating costs were €32.8 million as compared to €29.5 million as at 30 June 2015, i.e. an increase of €3.3 million primarily related to the staff increases in Germany Residential, following the growth of the portfolio.

1.3.3.3. Income from other activities

The main components of income from other activities are the Car Parks business (€3.5 million), corresponding to car parks owned or under concession, and real estate development activities (fees and margin; €3.6 million).

1.3.3.4. Net allowances to provisions and other

Net allowances to provisions and other had a negative impact of €2 million on the 2016 income statement, primarily linked to the change in provisions.

1.3.3.5. 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. For the first half of 2016, the change in the fair value of investment assets is positive and stands at €307.7 million. Change in the fair value of investment assets by operating segment can be broken down as follows:

France Offices: +€187.7 million
  • Italy Offices: +€27.3 million
  • Hotels & Service sector: +€37.6 million
  • Germany Residential: +€55.1 million

Operating income thus amounted to €533.9 million compared to €382.6 million at 30 June 2016.

1.3.3.6. Financial aggregates

Changes in the fair value of financial instruments stood at -€18.5 million compared to -€35.4 million at 30 June 2015. These mainly consist of negative changes of -€77 million in the fair value of hedging instruments and positive changes of €58 million in the value of the ORNANES.

It should be noted that the net change of -€29.7 million in financial provisions in the first half of 2016 debt were impacted by the restructuring of the Technical debt (-€5 million) and the redemption of the 2018 bond issue (-€16 million).

Taxes determined are for:

  • foreign companies that are not or are only partially subject to a tax transparency regime (Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands)
  • French subsidiaries not having opted for the SIIC regime
  • French SIIC or Italian subsidiaries with taxable activity.

  • Net rental income was impacted by the application of IFRIC 21, and reflects 12 months of property taxes net of rebilling. The impact of the application of this standard is restated in recurring net income (€2.6 million), so that it only includes six months of non-rebillable taxes.
  • Income from changes in consolidation scope consists exclusively of the acquisition costs for the shares of companies consolidated in accordance with IFRS 3R. These costs are excluded from recurring net income.
  • The cost of debt was impacted by €7.3 million in early debt restructuring costs. These costs are excluded from the recurring net income.
  • Corporate income tax includes taxes on the €1.5 million change in value of the ORNANES in Italy. These taxes are excluded from recurring net income.

1.3.4.1. Increase in consolidated net rental income of €13.5 million (3.4%)

Net rental income increased primarily as a result of acquisitions and deliveries of assets under development. This growth is diminished by the disposals and downward lease renegotiations in the Italy Offices sector (renegotiation of Telecom Italia in 2015). Net rental income by operating segment is the following:

1.3.5.1. Fixed assets

At 31 December 2015, the portfolio by operating segment consisted of the following:

Group share – (€M) 2015 H1 2016 Var. incl. LFL
change
Offices – France 4,399 4,720 321 188
Offices – Italy 1,804 1,997 194 27

Car parks 23 21 -1 0
TOTAL FIXED ASSETS 9,907 10,625 718 307

The value of fixed assets in France Offices is mainly affected by the change in fair value of investment properties (+€187.7 million) and the acquisition of the Vinci head office in Rueil (€129 million including duties).

The value of fixed assets in Italy Offices was affected by the change in percentage ownership interest (+3.8 points) and by the acquisition of the Corso Italia asset in Milan (€19 million Group Share).

The value of fixed assets in the Hotels and Service sector is mainly linked to the increase in ownership interest and the payment of the option to acquire NH assets in Germany (+€27 million Group Share).

The change in fixed assets in Germany Residential was affected by the acquisitions made in the period through the acquisition of companies.

1.3.5.2. Assets held for sale

Assets held for sale primarily consist of assets for which a preliminary sales agreement has been signed. The change of €13 million between 2015 and the first half of 2016 is mainly linked to the disposal of AccorHotels assets in the Hotels & Service Sector (-€126 million) and to the reclassification of the Healthcare portfolio as an asset held for sale (€146 million including the change in fair value).

1.3.5.3. Total shareholders' equity Group share

Shareholders' equity increased from €4,639 million at the end of 2015 to €4,872 million at 30 June 2016, i.e. an increase of €232.6 million, due mainly to:

  • income for the period: +€411.0 million
  • the capital increase net of expenses, used for the additional acquisition of the FDM shares: +€113.2 million
  • impact of the cash dividend distribution: -€286.6 million
  • financial instruments included in shareholders' equity: +€12.3 million
  • the change in the ownership interest in Beni Stabili and FDM: +€7.4 million.

1.3.5.4. Other assets

The €109 million increase in this line item primarily includes an escrow account (€25 million) related to the disposal of the AccorHotels portfolio and the impact of 12 months of property tax rebilling in accordance with IFRIC 21 (+€37 million).

1.3.5.5. Other liabilities

The change of -€16 million in this line item is mainly related to the decrease in Advances and pre-payments received in 2015 on the disposal of a portfolio of residential assets in Germany (-€58 million) and the recognition of property tax debts pursuant to the application of IFRIC 21 (+€37 million).

Following the disposal of an asset portfolio for €101 million, the Discontinued operations line item was €73 million at 30 June 2016 compared to €174 million at 31 December 2015.

1.3.6.4. Deferred tax liabilities

Deferred taxes amounted to €359 million compared to €337 million at 31 December 2015. This €22 million increase is mainly due to acquisitions completed and the increase in the value of the assets in the sectors Germany Residential and Hotels & Service abroad.

1.3.6.5. Other assets

The €149 million increase in this line item primarily includes an escrow account (€50 million) related to the disposal of the AccorHotels portfolio and the impact of 12 months of property tax rebilling in accordance with IFRIC 21 (+€47 million).

Valuations are carried out in accordance with the Code of conduct applicable to SIICs and the Charter of property valuation expertise, the recommendations of the COB/CNCC working group chaired by Mr Barthès de Ruyter and the international plan in accordance with European TEGoVA standards and those of the Red Book of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS).

The property portfolio directly held by the Group underwent a complete valuation on 31 December 2016 by independent property experts such as REAG, DTZ Eurexi, CBRE, JLL, BNP Paribas Real Estate, Cushman and Yard Valtech.

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

Car parks were valued by capitalising the EBITDA surplus generated by the business.

Other assets and liabilities were valued using the principles of the IFRS standards on consolidated accounts. 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.

1.4.1. Fair value adjustment for the buildings and business goodwill

In accordance with IFRS standards, properties in operation and in inventory are valued at historical cost. A value adjustment, in order to take into account the appraisal values, is recognised in the NAV for a total amount of €41.7 million.

Since the buildings and business borne by FDM Management (Hotel operating properties) are not valued in the consolidated accounts, a restatement to recognise their fair value (as calculated by the appraisers) was made in the NAV in the amount of €5.2 million at 30 June 2016.

1.4.2. Fair value adjustment for the car parks

Car parks are valued at historical cost in the consolidated accounts. A restatement is made in the NAV to take into account the appraisal value of these assets, as well as the effect of the farm-outs and subsidies received in advance. The impact on the NAV was €25.5 million at 30 June 2016.

1.4.3. Fair value adjustment for fixed-rate debts

The Group has taken out fixed-rate loans. In accordance with EPRA principles, triple net NAV is adjusted by the fair value of fixed-rate debts, with an impact of -€120.6 million at 30 June 2016.

1.4.4. 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 €25.2 million at 30 June 2016.

1.5.1.3. Main changes during the period

1.5.1.3.1. Particularly strong financing and refinancing activity: €1.7 billion at 100% (€1.4 billion Group share)

  • Foncière des Régions: €1.03 billion (Group share: €1.03 billion):
  • During the first half of 2016, Foncière des Régions continued the process of renegotiating its corporate credit facilities to optimise their financial conditions and extend their maturities. A total of €225 million was thus refinanced for a five-year term.
  • In May 2016, Foncière des Régions launched its first Green Bond issue for €500 million, maturing in 2026, with a fixed coupon of 1.875%, i.e. a spread of 137 bps. The issue was five times oversubscribed. At the same time, the Group redeemed €233.6 million and 47% of the bond issue maturing in 2018 and bearing interest at the rate of 3.875%.
  • In February 2016, Foncière des Régions secured the refinancing of a portfolio of offices assets rented to Orange by taking out a mortgage of €300 million over ten years.

These refinancing transactions provided a clear extension of the debt maturity under optimised financial terms.

  • France Residential (Foncière Développement Logement): €50 million raised (€30.6 million Group share):
  • In the first half of 2016, Foncière Développement Logements set up a corporate credit facility of €50 million with a five-year maturity.
  • Hotels & Service Sector (FDM): €20 million (€9.3 million Group share)

  • Germany Residential (Immeo): €600 million (€400 million Group share):

  • In the first half of 2016, Immeo obtained ten-year refinancing for €56 million of mortgage financing on 886 units located in Berlin and €165 million of mortgage financing with a maturity of 7.8 years for 3,228 units located in Berlin, Dresden, Düsseldorf and Leipzig. These refinancing transactions significantly improved the financial terms and maturity of the loans.
  • Immeo also raised €132 million in nefinancing with an average maturity of ten years for acquisitions in the Berlin and Potsdam areas.
  • Over the same period, Immeo also refinanced loans totalling €285.5 million over ten years, of which €204 million for the Quadriga portfolio in Berlin and €81.5 million for the Berolina portfolio, also in Berlin.

1.5.1.4. Hedging profile

In the first half of 2016, the hedge management policy remained unchanged, with debt hedged at 90% to 100%, at least 75% of which through short-term hedges, and all of which with maturities exceeding the debt maturity.

Based on net debt at the end of June 2016, Foncière des Régions is hedged (Group share) at 84%, compared to 88% at the end of 2015. The average term of the hedges is 5.7 years (Group share).

HEDGING PROFILE

1.5.1.5. Average interest rate on the debt and sensitivity

The average interest rate on Foncière des Régions' debt continued to improve, standing at 2.4% in Group share, compared to 2.8% in 2015. This drop is mainly due to the full-year impact of the refinancing of Foncière des Murs' loans between July and November 2015, the refinancing of the Technical debt in February 2016, Foncière des Régions' ten-year green bond issue in May 2016 at a rate of 1.875%, combined with the partial redemption of the bond issue maturing in 2018, as well as the impact of renegotiations in 2015 and 2016 and hedge restructuring. For information purposes, an increase of 50 basis points in the threemonth Euribor rate would have a negative impact of €0.6 million on recurring net income in 2016.

1.5.1.5.1. Financial structure

Excluding debts raised without recourse to the Group's property companies, the debts of Foncière des Régions and its subsidiaries generally include bank covenants (ICR and LTV) applying to the borrower's consolidated financial statements. If these covenants are breached, early debt repayment may be required. These covenants are established in Group share for Foncière des Régions and for FDM and on a consolidated basis for the other subsidiaries of Foncière des Régions (if their debts include them).

  • The most restrictive consolidated LTV covenants amounted to 60% for Foncière des Régions, FDM, FDL and Beni Stabili at 30 June 2016.
  • The threshold for consolidated ICR covenants differs from one REIT to another, depending on the type of assets, and may be different from one debt to another even for the same REIT, depending on debt seniority.

The most restrictive ICR consolidated covenants applicable to REITs are as follows:

  • for Foncière des Régions: 200%
  • for FDM: 200%
  • for FDL: 150%
  • for Beni Stabili: 150%.

With respect to Immeo, for which the debt raised is "non-recourse" debt, there are no consolidated covenants associated with portfolio financing.

Lastly, with respect to Foncière des Régions, some corporate credit facilities are subject to the following ratios:

Ratio Covenant FY 2016
LTV 60% (1) 51.3%
ICR 200.0% 339.0%
Secural debt ratio 25% (2) 7.5%
(1) A single credit facility of €75 million maturing in less than one year is subject to a covenant at 55%.
(2) A €75 million credit facility is subject to a covenant at 22.5%.

All covenants were fully complied with at the end of June 2016. No loan has an accelerated payment clause contingent on Foncière des Régions' rating, which is currently BBB, stable outlook (S&P rating).

2.2. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2.2.1. Accounting principles and methods

2.2.1.1. General principles – Accounting references

The condensed consolidated financial statements of Foncière des Régions Group as at 30 June 2016 were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting". Since they are condensed statements, they do not include all of the information required by IFRS guidelines and must be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements of the Foncière des Régions group for the year ending on 31 December 2015.

The financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on 21 July 2016.

Accounting principles and methods used

The accounting principles applied for the consolidated financial statements as at 30 June 2016 are identical to those used for the consolidated financial statements as at 31 December 2015, except for new standards and amendments whose application was mandatory on or after 1 January 2016 and which were not applied early by the Group.

New standards for which application is mandatory on or after 1 January 2016 include:

  • amendments to IAS 19 "Defined Benefit Plans Employee contributions" published on 9 January 2015; these limited amendments apply to employee contributions to defined benefit plans. The purpose of the amendments is to clarify and simplify the recognition of contributions that are not linked to the number of years of service of employees, for example employee contributions calculated on the basis of a fixed percentage of salary. These contributions can be recognised as a reduction in the cost of service in the period in which the service is rendered, rather than being allocated to the service periods
  • annual improvements to IFRS (2010-2012 cycle), adopted by the European Union on 9 January 2015; the IASB uses this process to make changes deemed necessary, but not urgent, to its standards, when they are not already included in another project
  • amendments to IFRS 11 "Amendments: Accounting for Acquisitions of Interests in Joint Operations", adopted by the European Union on 25 November 2015. This amendment specifies that the acquisition of an interest in a joint operation, which constitutes a business under IFRS 3, must be recognised according to IFRS 3, unless otherwise specified
  • amendments to IAS 16 and IAS 38 "Amendments: Clarification of Acceptable Methods of Depreciation and Amortisation", adopted by the European Union on 3 December 2015. For tangible assets, this amendment specifies that the use of depreciation or amortisation methods based on the revenue generated by the use of the asset is inappropriate
  • annual improvements to IFRS (2012-2014 cycle) adopted by the European Union on 15 December 2015; these amendments concern IFRS 5, IFRS 7, IAS 19 and IAS 34
  • amendments to IAS 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements" adopted by the European Union on 18 December 2015. The purpose of these amendments is to encourage companies to use their professional judgement and take account of materiality in determining which information to disclose in their financial statements pursuant to IAS 1.

IFRS standards and amendments published by the IASB but not adopted by the European Union, not yet mandatory for fiscal years beginning on or after 1 January 2016:

  • IFRS 15 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers"; according to the IASB, the standard should come into force on 1 January 2018. Its adoption by the European Union is expected in Q3 2016. In May 2014, the IASB and the FASB published IFRS 15, which changes horevenue is recognised and supersedes IAS 18, Revenue, and IAS 11, Construction Contracts. IFRS 15 establishes a fundamental principle that requires revenues from contracts with customers to be recognised in a way that reflects the amount to which a seller expects to be entitled when transferring control of a good or service to a customer.
  • For the Group, this standard could have an impact on real estate development activities, for which an analysis is underway
  • amendments to IFRS 15, published on 12 April 2016; according to the IASB, the standard should come into force on 1 January 2018. Its adoption by the European Union is expected in Q1 2017. Clarifications have been made to IFRS 15 concerning the following: identification of performance obligations, principal versus agent application,

licenses, and transitory provisions

  • IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments: Hedge Accounting"; according to the IASB, the standard should come into force on 1 January 2018; its adoption by the European Union is expected in the second half of 2016. This standard will replace IAS 39 "Financial Instruments" and should have only a limited impact on the financial statements
  • IFRS 16 "Leases"; according to the IASB, the standard should come into force on 1 January 2019. Its adoption by the European Union is expected in 2017. On 13 January 2016, the IASB published IFRS 16, which will supersede IAS 17 Leases, as well as the corresponding interpretations (IFRIC 4, SIC 15 and SIC 27). The most significant change is that all the leases concerned will be recognised on the tenant's balance sheet, providing better visibility on their assets and liabilities. An analysis of the impacts for the Group is under way
  • amendments to IAS 12 "Recognition of Deferred Tax Assets for Unrealised Losses", published on 19 January 2016; according to the IASB, the standard should come into force on 1 January 2017. Its adoption by the European Union is expected in Q4 2016. The amendment provides clarification on hoto estimate the existence of future taxable profit
  • amendments to IAS 7 "Disclosure Initiative"; according to the IASB, the standard should come into force on 1 January 2017. Its adoption by the European Union is expected in Q4 2016. As part of its overall reflection on the presentation of financial statements, the IASB published amendments to IAS 7 "Statement of Cash Flows" on 29 January 2016. Under these amendments, entities must provide disclosures that enable users of financial statements to evaluate changes in liabilities arising from financing activities, whether or not these changes stem from cash flows
  • amendments to IFRS 2 "Classification and Measurement of Share-based Payment Transactions", published on 20 June 2016; according to the IASB, the standard should come into force on 1 January 2018. Its adoption by the European Union is expected in the second half of 2017. This amendment covers three aspects that concern the following: the effects of vesting conditions on the measurement of cash-settled share-based payments, share-based payment transactions with a net settlement feature for withholding tax obligations, and a modification to the terms and conditions of a share-based payment that changes the classification of the transaction from cash-settled to equitysettled.

2.2.1.2. Presentation of the financial statements

The Foncière des Régions group has applied the recommendations of the EPRA (European Public Real Estate Association) since its consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2010.

2.2.1.3. Consolidation principles

2.2.1.3.1. Consolidated subsidiaries and structured entities

These financial statements include the financial statements of Foncière des Régions and the financial statements of the entities (including structured entities) that it controls and its subsidiaries.

The Foncière des Régions group has control when it:

  • has power over the issuing entity
  • is exposed or is entitled to variable returns due to its ties with the issuing entity
  • has the ability to exercise its power in such as manner as to affect the amount of returns that it receives.

The Foncière des Régions group must reassess whether it controls the issuing entity when facts and circumstances indicate that one or more of the three factors of control listed above have changed.

A structured entity is an entity structured in such a way that the voting rights or similar rights do not represent the determining factor in establishing control of the entity; this is particularly the case when the voting rights only involve administrative tasks and the relevant business activities are governed by contractual agreements.

If the Group does not hold a majority of the voting rights in an issuing entity in order to determine the power exercised over an entity, it analyses whether it has sufficient rights to unilaterally manage the issuing entity's relevant business activities. The Group takes into consideration any facts and circumstances when it evaluates whether the voting rights that it holds in the issuing entity are sufficient to confer power to the Group, including the following:

  • the number of voting rights that the Group holds compared to the number of rights held respectively by the other holders of voting rights and their distribution
  • the potential voting rights held by the Group, other holders of voting rights or other parties
  • the rights under other contractual agreements
  • the other facts and circumstances, where applicable, which indicate that the Group has or does not have the actual

ability to manage relevant business activities at the moment when decisions must be made, including voting patterns during previous shareholders' meetings.

Subsidiaries and structured entities are fully consolidated.

2.2.1.3.2. Equity affiliates

An equity affiliate is an entity in which the Group has significant control. Significant control is the power to participate in decisions relating to the financial and operational policy of an issuing entity without exercising joint control on these policies.

The results and the assets and liabilities of associates were accounted for in these consolidated financial statements according to the equity method.

2.2.1.3.3. Partnerships (or joint control)

Joint control means the contractual agreement to share the control exercised over a company, which only exists in the event where the decisions concerning relevant business activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing the control.

2.2.1.3.3.1. Joint ventures

A joint venture is a partnership in which the parties which exercise joint control over the entity have rights to its net assets.

The results and the assets and liabilities of joint ventures were accounted for in these consolidated financial statements according to the equity method.

2.2.1.3.3.2. Joint operations

A joint operation is a partnership in which the parties exercising joint control over the operation have rights to the assets, and obligations for the liabilities relating to it. Those parties are called joint operators.

A joint operator must recognise the following items relating to its interest in the joint operation:

  • its assets, including its proportionate share of assets held jointly, where applicable
  • its liabilities, including its proportionate share of liabilities assumed jointly, where applicable
  • the income that it made from the sale of its proportionate share in the yield generated by the joint operation
  • its proportionate share of income from the sale of the yield generated by the joint operation
  • the expenses that it has committed, including its proportionate share of expenses committed jointly, where applicable.

The joint operator accounts for the assets, liabilities, income and expenses pertaining to its interests in a joint operation in accordance with the IFRS that apply to these assets, liabilities, income and expenses.

No Group company is considered to constitute a joint operation.

2.2.1.4. Estimates and judgements

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the historic cost convention, with the exception of investment properties and certain financial instruments, which were accounted for in accordance with the fair value convention. In accordance with the conceptual framework for IFRS, preparation of the financial statements requires making estimates and using assumptions that affect the amounts shown in these financial statements.

The significant estimates made by the Foncière des Régions group in preparing the financial statements mainly relate to:

  • the valuations used for testing impairment, in particular assessing the recoverable value of goodwill and intangible fixed assets
  • measurement of the fair value of investment properties
  • the assessment of the fair value of derivative financial instruments
  • measurement of provisions.

Because of the uncertainties inherent in any valuation process, the Foncière des Régions group reviews its estimates based on regularly updated information. The future results of the transactions in question may differ from these estimates.

In addition to the use of estimates, Group management makes use of judgements to define the appropriate accounting treatment of certain business activities and transactions when the IFRS standards and interpretations in effect do not precisely handle the accounting issues involved.

2.2.1.5. Operating segments

The Foncière des Régions group holds a wide range of real estate assets to collect rental income and benefit from appreciation in the assets held. Segment reporting is organised by asset type.

The operating segments are as follows:

  • France Offices: office property assets located in France
  • Italy Offices: office and commercial property assets located in Italy
  • Hotels & Service: commercial buildings in the hotel, retail and health sectors held by Foncière des Murs
  • German Residential: residential real estate assets in Germany held by Immeo SE
  • France Residential: residential real estate assets in France and Luxembourg held by Foncière Développement Logements
  • Car Parks: parking facilities leased by Urbis Park, and related business activities.

These segments are reported on and analysed regularly by Group management in order to make decisions on what resources to allocate to the segment and to evaluate their performance.

Since 1 January 2014, Logistics no longer appears under operating segments. In accordance with the application of IFRS 5, the Logistics business activity, which is being sold, is presented in the financial statements as discontinued operations.

The summary financial statements are presented after adjustment for discontinued operations.

2.2.2. Financial risk management

The operating and financial activities of the Company are exposed to the following risks:

2.2.2.1. Marketing risk for properties under development

The Group is involved in property development. As such, it is exposed to a number of different risks, particularly risks associated with construction costs, completion delays and the marketing of the assets. These risks can be assessed in light of the schedule of properties under development (§ 2.2.6.1.3).

2.2.2.2. Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is managed in the medium and long term with multi-year cash management plans and, in the short term, by using confirmed and undrawn lines of credit. At 30 June 2016, Foncière des Regions' available cash and cash equivalents amounted to €2,590 million, including €1,272 million in usable unconditional credit lines, €1,140 million in investments and €177 million in unused overdraft facilities.

The graph below summarises the maturities of borrowings in € millions, including Treasury bills existing as at 30 June 2016:

2016 maturities include €547 million in treasury bills.

The amount of interest payable up to the maturity of the debt, estimated on the basis of the outstanding amount at 30 June 2016 and the average interest rate on the debt, totalled €1,132 million.

Details concerning debt maturities are provided in Note 2.2.6.11.1, and a description of banking covenants and accelerated payment clauses included in the loan agreements is presented in Note 2.2.6.11.4.

In the first half of 2016, the Group set up or negotiated financing facilities to cover its liquidity risk. These renegotiations brought about an extension of the maturities and the optimisation of the financial terms and conditions of these loans.

2.2.2.3. Interest rate risk

The Group's exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rate rates is linked to its floating rate and long-term financial debt.

To the extent possible, bank debt is almost always hedged via financial instruments (see 2.2.6.11.3). At 30 June 2016, after taking interest rate swaps into account, around 84% of the Group's debt was hedged, and most of the remainder was covered by interest rate caps, which resulted in the following sensitivity to changes in interest rates:

  • the impact of an increase of 100 bps on rates as at 30 June 2016 was -€2,044,000 on net recurring income, Group share, in 2016
  • the impact of an increase of 50 bps on rates as at 30 June 2016 was -€609,000 on net recurring income, Group share, in 2016
  • the impact of a decrease of 50 bps on rates as at 30 June 2016 was -€513,000 on net recurring income, Group share, in 2016.

2.2.2.4. Financial counterparty risk

Given Foncière des Régions' contractual relationships with its financial partners, the Company is exposed to counterparty risk. If one of its partners is not in a position to honour its undertakings, the Group's net income could suffer an adverse effect.

This risk primarily involves the hedging instruments entered into by the Group and for which a default by the counterparty could make it necessary to replace a hedging transaction at the current market rate.

The counterparty risk is limited by the fact that Foncière des Régions is a borrower, from a structural standpoint. The risk is therefore mainly restricted to the investments made by the Group and to its counterparties in derivative product transactions. The Company continually monitors its exposure to financial counterparty risk. The Company's policy is to deal only with top-tier counterparties, while diversifying its financial partners and its sources of funding.

Counterparty risk is included in the measurement of cash instruments. For the first half of 2016, this amounted to €15,470,000.

2.2.2.5. Lease counterparty risk

The rental income of Foncière des Régions is subject to a certain degree of concentration, to the extent that the principal tenants (Orange, Telecom Italia, Suez Environnement, EDF and AccorHotels) generate the main part of the annual rental income.

Foncière des Régions does not believe it is significantly exposed to the risk of insolvency, since its tenants are selected based on their creditworthiness and the economic prospects of their market segments. The operating and financial performance of the main tenants is regularly reviewed. In addition, tenants grant the Group financial guarantees when leases are signed.

The Group has not recorded any significant overdue payments.

2.2.2.6. Risks related to changes in the value of the portfolio

Changes in fair value of investment properties are accounted for in the income statement. Changes in property values can thus have a material impact on the operating performance of the Group.

In addition, part of the Company's operating income is generated by the sales plan, the income from which is equally dependent on property values and on the volume of possible transactions.

Rentals and property values are cyclical in nature, the duration of the cycles being variable but generally long-term. Different domestic markets have differing cycles that vary from each other in relation to specific economic and market conditions. Within each national market, prices also follow the cycle in different ways and with varying degrees of intensity, depending on the location and category of the assets.

The macroeconomic factors that have the greatest influence on property values and determine the various cyclical trends include the following:

  • interest rates
  • the liquidity on the market and the availability of other profitable alternative investments
  • economic growth.

Low interest rates, abundant liquidity on the market and a lack of profitable alternative investments generally lead to an increase in property asset values.

Economic growth generally increases demand for leased space and paves the way for rent levels to rise, particularly in the office sector. These two consequences lead to an increase in the price of property assets. Nevertheless, in the medium term, economic growth generally leads to an increase in inflation and then an increase in interest rates, expanding the availability of profitable alternative investments. Such factors exert downward pressure on property values.

The investment policy of Foncière des Régions is to minimise the impact of various stages of the cycle by choosing investments that:

  • have long-term leases and high quality tenants, which soften the bloof a reduction in market rental income and the resulting decline in real estate prices
  • are located in major city centres
  • have lovacancy rates, in order to avoid the risk of having to re-let vacant space in an environment where demand may be limited.

The holding of real estate assets intended for leasing exposes Foncière des Régions to the risk of fluctuation in the value of real estate assets and lease payments.

Despite the uncertainty created by the economic downturn, this exposure is limited to the extent that the rentals invoiced are derived from rental agreements, the term and diversification of which mitigate the effects of fluctuations in the rental market.

The sensitivity of the fair value of investment properties to changes in capitalisation rates is analysed in § 2.2.6.1.2.

2.2.2.7. Exchange rate risk

The Company operates in the Euro zone. It is therefore not exposed to exchange rate risk.

2.2.2.8. Risks related to changes in the value of shares and bonds

The Group is exposed to risks for two classes of shares (see § 2.2.6.2).

This risk primarily involves listed securities in companies consolidated using the equity method, which are valued according to their value in use. Value in use is determined based on independent assessments of property assets and financial instruments and there is no goodwill attached to these companies.

In addition, Foncière des Régions and Beni Stabili issued bonds (ORNANE) valued at their fair value in the income statement at each closing. The fair value corresponds to the monthly closing price of the bond, exposing the Group to changes in the value of the bond. The specific features of the ORNANE are described in Note 2.2.6.11.2.

2.2.2.9. Tax environment

2.2.2.9.1. Changes in the French tax environment

Changes in the French tax environment may affect the Group's tax situation, particularly with regard to registration fees, as of 1 January 2016:

  • the introduction of an additional 0.6% tax on conveyancing of office, commercial and storage buildings in the Paris region completed more than five years ago
  • the 0.7% increase in registration fees in Paris.

2.2.2.9.2. Changes in the Italian tax environment

Changes in the tax regulations in Italy concern the corporation tax rate (IRES by the Italian acronym), which is lowered from 27.5% to 24% as of fiscal years ending in 2017.

2.2.2.9.3. Changes in the German tax environment

The Group has not observed any significant change in the German tax environment.

2.2.2.9.4. Tax risk

Given the ongoing changes to tax legislation, the Group is likely to be subject to reassessment proposals from the Tax Administration. If an adjustment presents a risk of reassessment in the opinion of our counsel, a provision is made at that point. The list of the main ongoing proceedings includes the following:

2.2.2.9.4.1. Foncière des Régions tax inspection

Foncière des Régions' accounts were audited for the 2012 and 2013 fiscal years, which resulted in a reassessment proposal in December 2015 for corporate value added tax (CVAE) generating:

  • a €9.7 million tax impact on the principal, relating to (i) corporation tax, with a correlative increase in deficits on the taxable segment in the amount of €36.6 million and (ii) CVAE. The Group is disputing this reassessment and, based on the analysis by the Company's legal counsels, no provision was recorded to that effect as at 30 June 2016. The reassessment proposal concerning a reduction in deficits in the taxable segment of €1 million on a total of €240 million was accepted
  • a nereassessment proposal concerning the 2014 corporation tax was received as a follow-up to the reassessment made for 2012 and 2013, generating a financial impact of €3.9 million in principal. On the same basis as for the 2012 and 2013 financial years, this reassessment proposal is being contested and, based on the analysis by the Company's legal counsels, no provision was recorded to that effect as at 30 June 2016.

2.2.2.9.4.2. Foncière Europe Logistique tax audit

A corporate income tax reassessment proposal was received by Foncière Europe Logistique amounting to €3.2 million for fiscal years 2007 and 2008, followed by a tax collection procedure and a payment during the first half of 2012. Foncière Europe Logistique is nonetheless contesting this reassessment and filed a claim against it. The Tax Administration rejected the claim on the merits but nevertheless granted an abatement of €2.4 million in principal and interest to take into account the fact that the financial consequences were spread out over 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011.

Since 2009 was required, a final abatement of €0.8 million was obtained. The case was referred to the Administrative Court, which rejected Foncière Europe Logistique's application in December 2015. Foncière Europe Logistique maintains its position and has submitted an appeal to the Paris Administrative Appeals Court. The Administrative Court's ruling is being appealed and, based on our legal counsels' analysis, no provision was recorded to that effect as at 30 June 2016.

An accounting audit pertaining to the 2010 and 2011 fiscal years took place during the 2013 fiscal year, which ended in a reassessment proposal on the corporate tax for €3.5 million on the same grounds as the previous adjustment proposal for 2007 and 2008. This rectification was followed by a tax collection procedure and payment. The case was referred to the Administrative Court, which rejected Foncière Europe Logistique's request in June 2016. Foncière Europe Logistique maintains its position and will submit an appeal to the Paris Administrative Appeals Court.

The Administrative Court's ruling is being appealed and, based on our legal counsels' analysis, no provision was recorded to that effect as at 30 June 2016.

The accounts of Foncière Europe Logistique for fiscal years 2012 and 2013 were audited. In April 2015, this audit concluded with a corporate income tax reassessment proposal that generated:

  • a financial impact of €1.3 million in principal with a consequential increase in the deficits of the taxable segment of €7 million, on the same basis as previous reassessment proposals for financial years 2007 to 2011. The Group is disputing this reassessment and, based on the analysis by the Company's legal counsels, no provision was recorded to that effect as at 30 June 2016
  • a reduction of deficits in the taxable segment of €11 million on a total of €81 million. This reassessment proposal was accepted.

2.2.2.9.4.3. Foncière des Murs tax audit

Foncière des Murs underwent an accounting audit for the 2010 and 2011 financial years, which resulted in a reassessment proposal for the CVAE in the amount of €2.4 million. This reassessment proposal was confirmed in April 2015 following administrative reviews. It gave rise to a tax collection procedure and payment in the first half of 2016. The proposal is being contested in its entirety, and, based on the analysis by the Company's legal counsels, no provision was recorded to that effect as at 30 June 2016.

Foncière des Murs' accounts were also audited for the 2012, 2013 and 2014 fiscal years. This resulted in a reassessment proposal for CVAE in December 2015, in the amount of €2 million on the same basis as the previous reassessment proposal concerning the 2010 and 2011 fiscal years. This reassessment proposal was confirmed in May 2016 following administrative reviews. It is still being contested and, based on the analysis by the Company's legal counsels, no provision was recorded to that effect as at 30 June 2016.

2.2.2.9.4.4. SNC Otello (Foncière des Murs subsidiary) tax audit

SNC Otello's accounts were audited for the 2011, 2012 and 2013 fiscal years, which resulted in a reassessment proposal for the CVAE in the amount of €0.5 million. This reassessment proposal was confirmed in April 2015 following administrative reviews. It gave rise to a tax collection procedure and payment in the first half of 2016. This proposal is being contested in its entirety, and, based on analysis by the Company's legal counsel, it was not provisioned at 30 June 2016.

2.2.2.9.4.5. Urbis Park tax audit

Urbis Park underwent a tax audit for the 2008, 2009 and 2010 financial years. A tax reassessment proposal for 2008, which has no impact on the corporate tax owed, was submitted at the end of December 2011. Claims have been filed in this matter.

2.2.2.9.4.6. Tax audits of the Italy Offices segment

Comit Fund tax dispute – Beni Stabili

On 17 April 2012, following a court decision, the Italian Tax Administration refunded the debt borne by Beni Stabili for the Comit Fund dispute (principal: €58.2 million and interest: €2.3 million). In April 2012, the Tax Administration appealed this decision. The Court of Appeal ruled in favour of the Tax Administration on 18 December 2015. Beni Stabili maintains its position and continues to contest the ruling. However, a provision of €55.3 million was set aside for this dispute as at 31 December 2015 and subsequently increased to €56.2 million as at 30 June 2016.

Tax audits

A tax audit of Beni Stabili began during the first half of 2013 (covering 2009 and 2010). The administration issued a tax adjustment of €3.7 million for these fiscal years, which the Company disputed in its entirety. The dispute was ongoing at 30 June 2016 and no provision has been recorded for the adjustment.

In 2015, the audit was extended to the 2011 fiscal year, with a resulting tax adjustment of €3.4 million. However, Beni Stabili and its advisors believe that this reassessment is unfounded and the Company is contesting the entire adjustment, which has not been provisioned at 30 June 2016.

Furthermore, the tax audit for the 2008 fiscal year, for which the Tax Administration had proposed an adjustment on the nondeductibility of interest expenses on mortgage loans, was reconsidered by the administration and the amount that was revised downward to €3.7 million then €2.7 million. However, Beni Stabili and its counsel believe that this reassessment is unfounded and the Company is contesting the entire adjustment. At 30 June 2016, the procedure was still under way.

2.2.2.9.5. Deferred tax liabilities

Most of the Group's property companies have opted for the SIIC regime in France or for the SIIQ in Italy. The impact of deferred tax liabilities is therefore essentially related to the Germany Residential segment and to investments in the Hotels & Service sector for which the SIIC regime is not applicable (Germany, Belgium, Netherlands and Portugal).

In keeping with the decisions made by the Board of Directors on 17 February 2016, Foncière des Régions resolved to increase its stake in Foncière des Murs. To this effect, contribution-in-kind agreements were signed with Assurances Crédit Mutuel (ACM Vie) and BMO Global Asset Management concerning respectively 2,473,242 and 745,527 Foncière des Murs shares.

On completion of these contributions in kind on 27 April 2016, Foncière des Régions' stake in Foncière des Murs rose to 47.45%, compared to 43.15% at 31 December 2015.

Following Foncière des Régions' first public exchange offer targeting 2.1% of the share capital of Foncière des Murs, on 28 June 2016, Foncière des Régions held 36,777,103 Foncière des Murs shares, i.e. 49.63% of its share capital.

Latécoère is 50.1% owned by Foncière des Régions at 30 June 2016 and has been fully consolidated since 1 April 2015, whereas it was consolidated using the equity method at 31 December 2014. The partnership with the Crédit Agricole Assurances group (49.90%) was established starting in October 2012 as part of the Dassault Systèmes Campus project. The shareholder agreement was amended during the first half of the year. Considering the rules of governance that confer on Foncière des Régions powers that give it the ability to affect asset yields, the company is fully consolidated.

2.2.4.8. SAS Samoëns (consolidated structured entity)

SAS Samoëns was 50.1% held by Foncière des Murs at 30 June 2016 and is fully consolidated. The partnership with the Assurances du Crédit Mutuel group was set up in May 2016 within the scope of a Club Med development project in Samoëns. Considering the rules of governance that confer on Foncière des Murs powers that give it the ability to affect asset yields, the company is fully consolidated.

2.2.6.11.4. Bank covenants

Excluding debts raised without recourse to the Group's property companies, the debts of Foncière des Régions and its subsidiaries generally include bank covenants (ICR and LTV) applying to the borrower's consolidated financial statements. If these covenants are breached, early debt repayment may be triggered. These covenants were established in Group share for Foncière des Régions and for Foncière des Murs (regarding refinance loans for historical borrowings) and on a consolidated basis for Foncière Développement Logements and Beni Stabili (if their debts include them).

With respect to Immeo, for which the debt raised is "non-recourse" debt, there are no consolidated covenants associated with portfolio financing.

The most restrictive consolidated LTV covenants at 30 June 2016 were 60% for Foncière des Régions, Foncière des Murs and Foncière Développement Logements. Lastly, a limited portion of Beni Stabili financing included a consolidated LTV covenant (Beni Stabili scope), the most restrictive level of which was also 60%.

The threshold for consolidated ICR covenants differs from one REIT to another, depending on the type of assets, and may be different from one debt to another even for the same REIT, depending on debt seniority. Lastly, only a portion of the Beni Stabili loans has a consolidated ICR covenant.

The most restrictive ICR consolidated covenants applicable to REITs are as follows:

  • for Foncière des Régions: 200%
  • for Foncière des Murs: 200%
  • for Foncière Développement Logements: 150%
  • for Beni Stabili: 150%.

All of these consolidated LTV and ICR covenants were strictly complied with as at 30 June 2016.

With regard to Foncière des Régions, consolidated bank ratios as at 30 June 2016 were 51.3% for Group share LTV and 339% for Group share ICR, compared to 50.9% and 302% respectively at 31 December 2015.

Two types of covenants were added to the consolidated LTV and ICR Group share covenants of Foncière des Régions as part of the corporate loans taken out by Foncière des Régions:

Mainly an asset-secured debt covenant (100% scope), the cap on which is set at 25% (excluding a €75 million credit facility where the covenant is set at 22.5%) and which measures the ratio of secured debt (or debt with guarantees of any nature) to asset value.

This covenant is fully respected is at a very comfortable level.

Secondarily, unencumbered asset covenants, for which the ceiling is 50%, that assess the relationship between the debt of Foncière des Régions and that of its fully-owned subsidiaries and the portfolio value. As at 30 June 2016, this covenant only applied to a historical corporate credit with a short maturity.

This covenant was also complied with as at 30 June 2016.

These covenants, which are based on the Company and consolidated financial statements, most often include specific covenants for the scopes financed. These "Scope" covenants, or to a lesser extent the interest coverage ratios, usually have less restrictive thresholds for the Group's companies than consolidated covenant thresholds. Their purpose is mainly to supervise the use of financing by correlating it with the value of underlying assets provided as collateral.

Provisions for taxes solely concern the Italy Offices segment in the amount of €57.8 million, €56.2 million of which relates to the Comit Fund dispute. This dispute is described in Note 2.2.2.9.4.

Provisions for property charges in the Car Parks segment (provisions for work renewal) were transferred to liabilities held for sale (€0.2 million transferred in the first half of 2016).

Other provisions consist primarily of the following:

  • other provisions for contingencies and losses: €0.5 million
  • provisions relating to grantor rights (Car Parks): €0.3 million
  • other provisions for losses: €0.3 million

The provision for retirement indemnities totalled €44.6 million as at 30 June 2016 (of which €42.2 million for the Germany Residential segment).

TOTAL RENTAL INCOME 452,288 437,906 14,382 3.3%

Rental income consists of rental and similar income (e.g.: occupancy fees and entry rights) invoiced for investment properties during the period. Rent exemptions, common areas and entry rights are spread out over the fixed term of the lease.

Rental income amounted to €452.3 million at 30 June 2016 compared with €437.9 million at 30 June 2015, an increase of €14.4 million.

The changes by type of asset break down as follows:

  • a 10.6% increase in rental income from France Offices due in particular to the delivery of assets under development (+€8 million) and acquisitions (+€2.5 million), less asset disposals, assets vacated for their redevelopment, and lease renewals
  • a 10.5% decrease in rental income from Italy Offices due to disposals (-€8 million) and rent reductions on neleases for €4.4 million (including the impact of the Telecom Italia agreement). These impacts were partially offset by netenants and acquisitions (+€1.6 million)
  • a 2% increase in rental income from the Hotels & Service sector, which is due in particular to the impact of acquisitions and deliveries of hotels in France, Germany and Spain (+€6 million), less the impact of disposals in the health sector (-€0.4 million) and hotel sector (-€1.6 million), and the drop in rental income from AccorHotels (-€2 million)
  • an increase in rental income from the Germany Residential segment following acquisitions (+€24 million), less the impact of disposals (-€10 million)
  • a 30.1% decrease in the France Residential segment, which is due to sales and assets made vacant for their disposal.

The tenant accounting for more than 10% of total revenue is Telecom Italia in the Italy Offices segment (€49.6 million).

Expenses on properties: These consist of rental expenses that are borne by the owner, expenses related to works and expenses related to property management.

Net losses on unrecoverable receivables: These consist of losses on unrecoverable receivables and net provisions on doubtful receivables. As at 30 June 2016, charges essentially stem from the Germany Residential segment (- €1.5 million) and the Italy Offices segment (-€1 million).

3 STATUTORY AUDITORS' REPORT

STATUTORY AUDITORS' REVIEW ON THE HALF-YEARLY

For the period from January 1 to June, 30, 2016

This is a free translation into English of the Statutory Auditors review report on the half-yearly financial information issued in French and is provided solely for the convenience of English-speaking users. This report includes information relating to the specific verification of information given in the Group's half-yearly management report. This report should be read in conjunction with, and construed in accordance with, French law and professional standards applicable in France.

To the Shareholders,

In compliance with the assignment entrusted to us by yours shareholders general meeting and in accordance with the requirements of article L.451-1-2 III of the French monetary and financial code («code monétaire et financier»), we hereby report to you on:

  • the revieof the accompanying condensed half-yearly consolidated financial statements of Foncière des Régions, for the period from January 1st, 2016 to June 30th, 2016,
  • the verification of the information presented in the half-yearly management report.

These condensed half-yearly consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the board of directors. Our role is to express a conclusion on these financial statements based on our review.

1. Conclusion on the financial statements

We conducted our review in accordance with professional standards applicable in France. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with professional standards applicable in France and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed half-yearly consolidated financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 – standard of the IFRSs as adopted by the European Union applicable to interim financial information.

2. Specific verification

We have also verified the information presented in the half-yearly management report on the condensed half-yearly consolidated financial statements subject to our review.

We have no matters to report as to its fair presentation and consistency with the condensed half-yearly consolidated financial statements.

Like-for-like change in rent

This indicator compares rents recognised from one financial year to another without accounting for changes in scope: acquisitions, disposals, developments including the vacating and delivery of properties. The change is calculated on the basis of rental income under IFRS for strategic activities.

This change is restated for certain severance pay and income associated with the Italian real estate (IMU) tax.

The current scope includes all portfolio assets except assets under development.

Like-for-like change in value

This indicator is used to compare asset values from one financial year to another without accounting for changes in scope: acquisitions, disposals, developments including the vacating and delivery of properties.

The like-for-like change presented in portfolio tables is a variation taking into account CAPEX works done on the existing portfolio. The restated like-for-like change in value of this work is cited in the comments section.

The current scope includes all portfolio assets.

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 calculated using annualised data solely on the strategic activities portfolio.

The indicator "Occupancy rate" includes all portfolio assets except assets under development.

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 Euromed and New Vélizy, which are consolidated under the equity method.

Projects

  • Committed projects: these are projects for which promotion or construction contracts have been signed and/or work has begun and has not yet been completed at the closing date. The delivery date for the relevant asset has already been scheduled. They might pertain to VEFA (pre-construction) projects or to the repositioning of existing assets.
  • Controlled projects: These are projects that might be undertaken and that have no scheduled delivery date. In other words, projects for which the decision to launch operations has not been finalised.

Rental activity

Rental activity includes mention of the total surface areas and the annualised rental income for renewed leases, vacated premises and new lettings during the period under review.

For renewed leases and new lettings, the figures provided take into account all contracts signed in the period so as to reflect the transactions completed, even if the start of the leases is subsequent to the period.

Lettings relating to assets under development (becoming effective at the delivery of the project) are identified under the heading "Pre-lets".

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 "topped-up" 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 where unpaid amounts not relating to rents were restated).

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 value incl. duties or disposal value excl. duties
