Gross rental income from Commercial Property Investment stood at €99.0 million, a significant increase of +5.8% compared to March 31, 2017 (€93.6 million).

On a like-for-like basis, the office and business park segment declined slightly by -0.5% (including -0.5% for offices and -0.6% for business parks) due to tenant departures and lease renegotiations in 2017 and Q1 2018.

During the period, rental income was impacted by strong changes in scope of consolidation, which breaks down as follows:

  • +€9.0 million of positive impacts from acquisitions made in 2017, especially ANF Immobilier (+€8.0 million)
  • +€1.8 million of positive impacts from completions in 2017, including the first phase of the Go Spring off-plan project (+€0.9 million) and Défense 456 (+€0.8 million)
  • -€1.2 million due to the rental income shortfall from assets made available for refurbishment, including Millénaire 1 (-€0.8 million, at the consolidated level of the Commercial Property Investment Division1 )
  • -€3.4 million of impacts from disposals, especially the three office assets located in Villejuif which were sold in 2017 (-€3.2 million).

Analysis of the leasing activity:

New leases starting during the period totalled 34,783 sq.m while tenant departures represented 29,751 sq.m, resulting in a net positive balance of +5,032 sq.m.

During the first quarter, 18 leases were renewed for a combined floor area of 72,730 sq.m and an annualised headline rental income of €16.1 million, with a weighted average unexpired lease term of 7.2 years.

As of March 31, 2018, the financial occupancy rate stood at 92.4%, a +0.5 pp like-for-like increase compared to December 31, 2017.

The financial occupancy rate of business parks improved by +0.8 pp to 90.1% (+0.9 pp like-for-like), while that of offices dropped 1.0 pp (+0.1 pp like-for-like), primarily due to the completion of newly refurbished space which is currently being offered for lease (Crystal Park).

In Q1 2018, gross rental income from Healthcare Property Investment stood at €56.7 million, a significant increase of +7.5% compared to March 31, 2017 (€52.7 million).

  • Europe private hospital in Rouen (+€1.3 million)
  • Saint Roch polyclinic in Cabestany (+€1.1 million)
  • Ormeau polyclinic in Tarbes (+€0.6 million)

  • Other capex for €14.3 million, including extension works amounting to €5.4 million for the Atlantique private hospital, €1.8 million for the Saint-Herblain private hospital and €1.7 million for the Châtaigneraie private hospital.

On March 22, 2018, Icade Santé completed the 30,000-sq.m Reims-Bezannes polyclinic which is in the process of obtaining HQE certification. The lease—a 12-year off-plan lease agreement with no break option entered into with Courlancy Santé—took effect on April 1, 2018.

________________________________________________

1 On a full consolidation basis

In addition, Icade Santé made its first investment in the nursing home sector through the signing of a preliminary agreement to acquire 14 facilities, for €189 million, from the Residalya group. Residalya will remain the tenant and operator of these nursing homes under new 12-year leases with no break options. The acquisition is expected to be completed in July 2018 once the conditions precedent have been fulfilled.

Through this transaction, Icade Santé has implemented its strategy to diversify into long-term facilities. It has also reinforced its position as the leader in healthcare real estate, with a post-acquisition portfolio of 114 assets for a total of more than €4.2 billion (excl. duties) and annualised rental income of over €235 million1 .

________________________________________________

1 on the basis of data as at 12/31/2017

3.1. Residential Property Development

Revenue from Residential Property Development totalled €145.0 million, down by only 2.5% compared to March 31, 2017. The increase in sales and construction starts, which is expected starting in H2 2018, should significantly boost the revenue to be recorded by the Residential Property Development business in 2018 compared to 2017.

Net new housing orders grew by 9.0% in volume terms, reaching 1,242 units. In value terms, potential revenue from housing orders was up 1.4%, due to the higher proportion of orders for managed residences (with less floor area and a lower average price per unit). In late March 2018, orders from institutional investors represented 46.8%, on the increase compared to the end of March 2017 (26.5%).

The backlog of the Residential Property Development business grew by 4.3% compared to December 31, 2017, bolstered by the increased number of orders.

At March 31, 2018, the land portfolio amounted to 10,791 units, representing potential revenue including tax of €2.3 billion compared to 11,365 units representing potential revenue including tax of €2.4 billion at the end of 2017.

3.2. Commercial Property Development

Revenue from Commercial Property Development stood at €81.9 million, up sharply compared to Q1 2017 (+37.3%). This strong performance is mainly due to the signing of an off-plan sale agreement for an office building in Villejuif, which strongly impacted revenue at the start of the year. This impact should be somewhat offset over the financial year as whole, as revenue from this business activity is expected to go up in 2018.

In the first quarter, Icade Promotion and SCPI Elysées Pierre (managed by HSBC REIM) signed an off-plan sale agreement for an 18,000-sq.m office building in Villejuif (Val-de-Marne) for €95 million excluding tax. The lease for this development project has been secured since February 2017 through the signing of a 9-year off-plan lease with no break option with Orange.

At the end of March 2018, the backlog of the Commercial, Public Amenities and Healthcare Development business amounted to €418.0 million.

3.3. Large-scale projects

Since the start of the year, Icade Promotion has been chosen to develop two major projects:

- Terres de Versailles:

In March 2018, Icade Promotion was awarded the concession to plan and develop the new "Terres de Versailles" neighbourhood, located on the site of the former Pion barracks.

This project covers 51,250 sq.m and includes housing units, a hotel, a childcare centre, shops, a space dedicated to social economy initiatives, as well as public facilities.

The entire project is scheduled to be carried out from 2019 to 2026. In addition to the planning involved, Icade Promotion will develop 65% of the real estate included in the overall project apart from the public facilities.

- Bercy Charenton:

In April 2018, Icade, Sogaris and Poste Immo were awarded a contract as part of the "Inventing the Greater Paris Metropolis" call for projects on the Bercy-Charenton site.

Located in the 12th district of Paris, this project encompasses a 50,000 sq.m mixed-use complex including a 15,000 sq.m office building which will be built under a delegated project management agreement by Icade Promotion with the Commercial Property Investment Division as investor. In addition, Icade Promotion will develop for 18,000 sq.m an offplan hotel, a co-living apartment hotel and shops as well as event and sports areas.

This project—scheduled to take place between 2020 and 2023 with Property Development and Commercial Property Investment working together on a large-scale initiative—reflects the synergies achieved between Icade's different divisions.

4. FINANCING

On February 19, 2018, Icade took advantage of favourable timing to successfully issue a €600 million bond (with a maturity of 10 years and an annual coupon of 1.625%, taking into account the associated hedges).

In line with this issue, Icade successfully completed the bond tender offer on February 26, 2018 for three outstanding issues (for an aggregate amount of €200 million with maturity of less than 3 years).

This transaction supports Icade's policy of optimising its funding structure by extending the average debt maturity while maintaining a very favourable average cost of debt.

5. PROPOSED MERGER OF ANF IMMOBILIER INTO ICADE

Icade's Supervisory Board (on the advice of the ad hoc committee), ANF Immobilier's Executive Board on April 24, 2018 and Icade's Board of Directors on April 25, 2018 approved narrowing the indicative range of the exchange ratio to 0.26 and 0.28 Icade share for one ANF Immobilier share.

A separate press release published on April 25, 2018 is available on our website.

Subject to securing the necessary approvals, the merger should take place before June 30, 2018.

6. 2018 OUTLOOK: GUIDANCE CONFIRMED

Icade confirms its target growth in Group net current cash flow of around 5% compared to 2017. As already announced, Icade will present its strategic plan for 2019-2023 at the end of H1 2018.
