Brussels, 6 March 2025, at 8.00 am CET
Brussels, 6 March 2025 – Immobel enters 2025 in a position of strength, underpinned by increased sales activities, substantial cash reserves and disciplined financial management. The company recorded in 2024 an operating income of EUR 379 million, a 133% increase compared to 2023. With a liquidity position of EUR 182 million, compared to EUR 100 million as per end of June 2024, and a well-hedged debt profile, Immobel is geared to navigate still volatile market conditions with resilience and financial stability.
Furthermore, Immobel successfully secured over EUR 430 million in project refinancing and new financing facilities in 2024, reinforcing its ability to fund ongoing developments and maintain flexibility in a shifting landscape. Early 2025, the company strengthened its financial position with a EUR 135 million corporate financing extension, ensuring ample resources to meet ongoing obligations and drive future growth.
Looking ahead, Immobel anticipates steady residential sales in Belgium and signs of recovery in office transactions under EUR 100 million, even as larger deals remain constrained. With a strategic focus on premium locations and sustainable developments, the company remains resilient and positioned to seize opportunities in 2025 and beyond.


In 2024, Immobel enhanced its sustainability efforts by standardizing practices and expanding carbon footprint assessments in line with Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) guidelines. The company continued its efforts towards Taxonomy alignment and conducted biodiversity and socio-economic studies to evaluate project impacts. These initiatives led to a 94% (4-star) GRESB rating, underscoring Immobel's leadership in sustainability.
The statutory auditor, KPMG Bedrijfsrevisoren - Réviseurs d'Entreprises, represented by Filip De Bock, has confirmed that the audit procedures, which have been substantially completed, have not revealed any material misstatement in the accounting information included in the Company's annual announcement.
The 2024 Annual Report and ESG Report will be published on March 17, 2025, ahead of the General Shareholders Meeting, which will be held on April 17, 2025.
