The plus and minus signs assigned to the changes reflect the business point of view: improvements are shown with a plus sign (+), deteriorations with a minus sign (-). Very high positive or negative per cent changes are reported as ≥+100% or ≤-100%. The designation "not applicable" (n. a.) is used when there is a change in the sign (i.e. from plus to minus or from minus to plus) and for changes in percentage rates. Rounding differences may result from the use of automatic data processing equipment for the addition of rounded amounts and percentage rates.

Consolidated Interim Financial Report

Business Development

IMMOFINANZ significantly strengthened its earning power during the first three quarters of 2021, even though the markets and business development were still influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic. The results of operations not only rose by roughly 60% to EUR 180.4 million year-on-year but also surpassed the comparable pre-crisis results from 2019 (+29% vs. Q1–3 2019). That also applies to net profit, which turned strongly positive at EUR 295.7 million as of 30 September 2021 and also clearly topped the pre-crisis level in 2019 (Q1–3 2019: EUR 202.6 million).

Income statement

Earnings before tax (EBT) 326.188 -92,247
Net profit or loss 295.661 -98,263

Rental income rose slightly to EUR 216.4 million (Q1–3 2020: EUR 215.8 million) and led to an improvement of 2.6% in the results of asset management to EUR 163.1 million (Q1–3 2020: EUR 158.9 million). This increase resulted, above all, from a reduction in property expenses, which fell by 11.5% to EUR -43.4 million (Q1–3 2020: EUR -49.1 million). Property expenses still exceeded the pre-crisis level due to the effects of the pandemic – but the write-off of rents receivable included in this position, which represent support by IMMOFINANZ for its tenants during the lockdown periods, were substantially lower than the previous year and totalled EUR -10.9 million (Q1–3 2020: EUR -19.2 million).

The results of property sales more than doubled to EUR 24.1 million (Q1–3 2020: EUR 9.5 million). The sale of the Cluster Produktionstechnik office building in Aachen for EUR 124.0 million was responsible for the largest positive effect. In line with the corporate strategy, properties with a total volume of EUR 259.6 million were sold during the first three quarters of 2021. Included here are the building in Aachen and, above all, older and non-strategic office properties in Warsaw and Budapest.

The results of property development also turned strongly positive at EUR 24.1 million (Q1–3 2020: EUR -21.0 million), chiefly due to positive valuation effects from an office development project in Düsseldorf.

Results of operations

Other operating expenses improved by 9.8% to EUR -32.3 million (Q1–3 2020: EUR -35.8 million), above all due to the absence of non-recurring effects from the previous year. The results of operations therefore rose by a solid 59.5% to EUR 180.4 million (Q1–3 2020: EUR 113.1 million).

Revaluation and operating profit

Results from the revaluation of standing investments equalled EUR 54.0 million, compared with crisis-related write-downs in the previous year to reflect the adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic (Q1–3 2020: EUR -144.8 million). The revaluations are related chiefly to office properties in Austria and Germany and reflect the ongoing dynamic market environment.

Operating profit (EBIT) therefore improved significantly to EUR 234.4 million (Q1–3 2020: EUR -31.7 million).

Financial results and taxes

Financing costs totalled EUR -61.9 million (Q1–3 2020: EUR -55.7 million) and reflect a year-on-year increase of roughly 12% in the financing volume. Average financing costs, including hedging, equalled 1.92% per year (31 December 2020: 1.99%). The other financial results of EUR 20.3 million (Q1–3 2020: EUR -13.4 million) resulted primarily from the positive valuation of interest rate derivatives (Q1–3 2021: EUR 14.8 million) following an increase in long-term interest rates.

The share of results from equity-accounted investments increased to EUR 131.5 million (Q1–3 2020: EUR 9.4 million). Of this total, EUR 128.0 million are attributable to S IMMO (revaluation of EUR 85.3 million to the investment due to the increase in the share price and a proportional earnings share of EUR 42.8 million). Financial results totalled EUR 91.8 million (Q1–3 2020: EUR -60.5 million).

Net profit

Profit before tax improved significantly to EUR 326.2 million (Q1–3 2020: EUR -92.2 million) and also exceeded the comparable pre-crisis period in 2019 (Q1–3 2019: EUR 211.8 million). After the deduction of EUR -30.5 million (Q1–3 2020: EUR -6.0 million) in income taxes, net profit amounted to EUR 295.7 million (Q1–3 2020: EUR -98.3 million and Q1–3 2019: EUR 202.6 million). That represents earnings per share (basic) of EUR 2.40, respectively EUR 2.20 (diluted) (Q1–3 2020: EUR -0.91).

Funds from Operations (FFO)

FFO 1 from the standing investment business (before tax and including the accrued interest on bonds) totalled EUR 90.7 million and is roughly at the previous year's level (Q1–3 2020: EUR 93.6 million). This slight decline is attributable, above all, to an increase in financing costs as a result of the higher financing volume. FFO 1 per share equalled EUR 0.74, compared with EUR 0.87 in the first three quarters of 2020, based on a higher number of shares (see the following table for the number of shares used in the calculation).

1 Financing costs for Q1–3 2021 include accrued interest of EUR -5.0 million for the corporate bonds 2019–2023 and 2020–2027 as well as the convertible bond 2017–2024; the coupon payment for the mandatory convertible bond 2020–2023 is not included. In addition, an adjustment was made for non-recurring costs from derivatives to reflect the premature repayment or sale.

IMMOFINANZ has a robust balance sheet structure with an equity ratio of 48.5% (31 December 2020: 45.1%). Equity has increased to EUR 3,394.8 million since the beginning of 2021, chiefly due to the improvement in net profit. The net loan to value equalled 36.6%.

The property portfolio has a value of EUR 5.2 billion and represents 73.8% of total assets. These properties are reported on the balance sheet under the following positions: investment property, property under construction, real estate inventories and assets held for sale. Assets held for sale include properties as well as other assets which will be transferred to the buyer in the event of a sale.

The equity-accounted investments of EUR 516.5 million include EUR 511.8 million attributable to S IMMO AG. Based on the roughly 19.5 million shares held by IMMOFINANZ, the book value of the S IMMO share equals EUR 26.25 (31 December 2020: EUR 18.65). The S IMMO investment was written up by EUR 85.3 million in the first quarter of 2021 to reflect a substantial improvement in the share price.

Cash and cash equivalents totalled EUR 1,016.9 million and reflected the level at year-end 2020 (31 December 2020: EUR 1,047.1 million, respectively EUR 1,051.4 million including cash and cash equivalents in disposal groups).

EPRA Financial Indicators

EPRA net asset value

In accordance with a recommendation by the European Public Real Estate Association (EPRA), IMMOFINANZ has published an expanded version of the net asset value indicators (NAV indicators) since the release of the financial statements for 2020. The two previously published indicators – net asset value (NAV) and triple net asset value (NNNAV) – were replaced by three new indicators: net reinstatement value (NRV), net tangible assets (NTA) and net disposal value (NDV).

These indicators are calculated in accordance with the EPRA Best Practices Recommendations (EPRA BPR), whereby adjustments are made beginning with IFRS equity to provide stakeholders with the most transparent information on the market value of the real estate company's assets and liabilities under various scenarios.

In order to present the transition as clearly as possible, IMMOFINANZ calculated a transition for 30 September 2021 and for 31 December 2020 as the comparative period from the previous EPRA NAV and EPRA NNNAV to the three new NAV indicators based on the EPRA BPR Guidelines issued in October 2019. The EPRA NTA is the most relevant indicator for IMMOFINANZ's business activities and therefore serves as the new primary indicator for net asset value.

1 The comparative period data was adjusted.

The calculation of the EPRA NAV indicators does not include any potential shares which would result from the conversion of the convertible bond 2017–2024 because the bond was not "in the money" as of 30 September 2021. The diluting effect of the hybrid financial instruments (convertible bonds) resulted from the equity correction for the convertible bond 2017–2024. The equity component declines to zero over the term of these financial instruments based on the effective interest rate. The mandatory convertible bond 2020–2023 issued in July 2020 must be converted into IMMOFINANZ shares and is therefore classified as an equity instrument under IFRS, i.e. this bond is included in full in equity and in the number of shares. The mandatory convertible bond was subjected to a mandatory conversion at the beginning of October 2021, i.e. shortly after the end of the reporting period (for detailed information see the section on Financing on page 17).

The EPRA NTA per share rose by 10.6% from EUR 27.82 at year-end 2020 to EUR 30.77 as of 30 September 2021. This increase is primarily attributable to the positive development of earnings and revaluation results (see the following reconciliation).

The IFRS book value per share equalled EUR 27.79 (31 December 2020: EUR 25.20).

EPRA earnings per share improved substantially to EUR 1.60 in the first nine months of 2021, respectively to EUR 1.11 per share after company-specific adjustments. This increase resulted primarily from the improvement in operating results, whereby the previous year was influenced by non-recurring effects.

The EPRA vacancy rate equalled 6.3% as of 30 September 2021 (31 December 2020: 4.0%) and rose to 9.2% in the office business. This increase over year-end 2020 resulted primarily from an agreement with a large tenant in Germany who was severely affected by the pandemic to reduce the amount of rented space beginning in 2021. These vacant areas will now be marketed as flexible myhive solutions. The retail portfolio was nearly fully rented with a vacancy rate of only 2.9%, whereby the STOP SHOP retail parks had the lowest vacancy rate with 1.0% as of 30 September 2021.

The EPRA cost ratio improved to 21.8% (Q1–3 2020: 24.3%) including direct vacancy costs and to 18.9% excluding direct vacancy costs (Q1–3 2020: 22.1%). This reduction resulted, above all, from the decline in the expenses from investment property. The write-offs of rents receivable from asset management included in this position, which represent support by IMMOFINANZ for its tenants during the lockdown periods, were substantially lower than the previous year and totalled EUR -10.9 million (Q1–3 2020: EUR -19.2 million).

In calculating the EPRA cost ratio, IMMOFINANZ only capitalises the expenses which will lead to a future economic benefit for the respective property. This normally applies to maintenance and fit-outs in investment property and to development costs for property under construction. Overheads and operating costs are principally not capitalised.

1 The comparative period data was adjusted.

Joint ventures are included in the calculation of capital expenditure in accordance with EPRA requirements; no figures are provided due to the absence of data.

Capital expenditure totalled EUR 153.7 million in the first three quarters of 2021 and was concentrated on properties solely owned by IMMOFINANZ (Q1–3 2020: EUR 84.7 million). Major projects included the development of the myhive Medienhafen Alto office building in Düsseldorf, the modernisation of existing office properties in Vienna and Romania as well as the acquisition of the Bucharest Financial Plaza in the first quarter of 2021.

IMMOFINANZ entered the market in Italy during the second quarter with the acquisition of a retail park in the north Italian city of San Fior. The acquisition of four Serbian retail parks, which was announced in 2020, also closed at the beginning of 2021. This real estate package in Serbia covers locations Leskovac, Šabac, Sombor and Zaječar. In addition, the acquisition of land in Croatia was finalised during the reporting period.

Capital expenditure in investment properties totalled EUR 21.2 million and was related primarily to the myhive Medienhafen Largo (Düsseldorf, formerly the trivago Campus), myhive Twin Towers (Vienna) and myhive Warsaw Spire (Warsaw) as well as the VIVO! Baia Mare shopping center. Capital expenditure in the investment properties consisted almost entirely of improvements to existing rental space as well as rental incentives. The investments in additional rental space are immaterial and, in accordance with EPRA requirements, are reported under "thereof no incremental lettable space".

Financing

Financial liabilities totalled EUR 3.1 billion as of 30 September 2021 (31 December 2020: EUR 3.2 billion). Cash and cash equivalents, including cash and cash equivalents held for sale, amounted to EUR 1,016.9 million (31 December 2020: EUR 1,051.4 million). Net debt, i.e. debt after the deduction of cash and cash equivalents held by the Group, equalled EUR 2.1 billion (31 December 2020: EUR 2.1 billion).

The unsecured, revolving credit line of EUR 100.0 million concluded in March 2020 was extended prematurely during the reporting period to 30 June 2023. It can be used at the company's discretion and gives IMMOFINANZ added financial flexibility. This credit line was not in use as of the balance sheet date and is therefore available in full.

Robust balance sheet structure

IMMOFINANZ has a robust balance sheet structure with an equity ratio of 48.5% (31 December 2020: 45.1%) and a net loan-to-value ratio (net LTV) of 36.6% (31 December 2020: 37.8%).

Unencumbered property

In addition to properties which carry external financing and are encumbered through standard market collateral (e.g. mortgages, pledge of company shares), EUR 1,518.5 million, or 29.8% of the total property carrying amount, were not externally financed and therefore unencumbered as of 30 September 2021 (31 December 2020: EUR 1,482.8 million or 28.9%). Including the S IMMO shares (valued at the EPRA NAV), which are not encumbered by any financing, this value increases to EUR 2,069.9 million or 36.7%.

Composition of financial liabilities

The financial liabilities held by IMMOFINANZ are denominated entirely in euros and consist of amounts due to financial institutions as well as liabilities from bonds. The composition of these liabilities as of 30 September 2021 is as follows:

The regular interest payments are classified as a financial liability, while the mandatory conversion is considered an equity component. This bond underwent mandatory conversion at the beginning of October 2021.

On 26 August 2021, IMMOFINANZ AG announced its intention to exercise its premature mandatory conversion right in accordance with the issue terms of the mandatory convertible bond. The conversion took place at the applicable conversion price of EUR 17.1472. The shares were delivered from IMMOFINANZ's stock of treasury shares on 5 October 2021. This premature conversion results in future coupon savings of approximately EUR 8.6 million for the company (up to the original end of the bond term in 2023).

In the first quarter of 2019, IMMOFINANZ received a long-term issuer rating of BBB- with stable outlook from S&P Global Ratings. This rating and outlook were confirmed during the annual review process in February 2021. IMMOFINANZ's announcement in March 2021 of its intention to launch a voluntary public takeover offer to the shareholders of S IMMO AG led to a revision of the S&P outlook from stable to negative. At the S IMMO general meeting in June 2021, the majority required to revoke the maximum voting right was not reached. Consequently, a key condition for IMMOFINANZ's takeover offer to S IMMO shareholders was not met. IMMOFINANZ decided not to amend its takeover offer, which, as a result was cancelled, and S&P reinstated its stable outlook for the issuer rating.

In connection with the issue of the corporate bond 2019–2023 and the corporate bond 2020–2027, IMMOFINANZ has committed to comply with the following standard financial covenants. These covenants will be calculated on the basis of the consolidated IFRS financial statements:

Financial covenant Threshold in % Value as of

Net Debt to Value Ratio1 Max. 60.0 37.3
Secured Net Debt to Value Ratio1 Max. 45.0 15.1

Portfolio Report

Crisis-resistant portfolio

IMMOFINANZ's property portfolio, which totalled approximately EUR 5.0 billion at the end of September 2021, is characterised by its crisis resistance. The portfolio strategy is based on clearly defined brands as well as flexible and innovative offers with strong customer orientation. These factors, in combination, allow IMMOFINANZ to meet the needs of buyers in the retail business and tenants in the office business.

At 94.1% (31 December 2020: 96.0%), the occupancy rate remained constant at a high international level. The retail properties are practically fully rented at 97.4%, and the STOP SHOPs can demonstrate an even higher 99.0%. The occupancy rate in the office business declined slightly to 90.2% during the first three quarters – however, this is mainly due to the reduction of space by a large tenant in Germany who was hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic. These areas will now be re-let with our flexible office solutions.

Take-up amounted to roughly 337,800 sqm in the first nine months of 2021, which represents 17% of the total rentable space. In the office properties, take-up nearly reached the 2019 pre-crisis level at 106,000 sqm.

Waiting lists for flexible myhive solutions

The roll-out of the flexible myhive office products has continued in 2021 and now covers 15 locations in seven European cities. In the office business, the pandemic has increased tenants' wish for greater flexibility. IMMOFINANZ is optimally positioned to address this development with its flexible myhive office concept and offers tenants properties at good locations in a high-quality office and community environment with top service, infrastructure and feel-good atmosphere. Tenants only pay for the space they need and can adjust their requirements on short notice. The demand for these short-term bookable office solutions is developing very well, and there are currently waiting lists at several locations.

In the retail business, the wide-ranging COVID-19 containment measures resulted in the temporary shutdown of roughly 48% of IMMOFINANZ's rented retail space at the end of March 2021. This situation improved substantially during the second and third quarter and, at the end of September, there were no further pandemic-related closings. The fourth quarter, i.e. after the end of the reporting period, brought an increase in uncertainty throughout IMMOFINANZ's core markets due to the sharp rise in the number of infections. Austria entered another lockdown on 22 November 2021, which is limited to three weeks and led to temporary retail closings (apart from everyday necessities). At the same time, plans were also announced for mandatory vaccinations beginning in February 2022. Roughly 15% of the IMMOFINANZ's retail space was affected by temporary shutdowns at the end of November 2021.

Higher revenues and strong recovery in visitor traffic

The earlier waves in the COVID-19 pandemic were followed by the very rapid recovery of visitor traffic in the retail parks after the end of the lockdowns. The STOP SHOP retail parks benefited from direct access to the individual shops from the parking areas and their focus on everyday products with an emphasis on the priceconscious segment. Statistics also showed that people shopped less frequently but spent more per visit as a result of the pandemic. This is reflected in the development of footfall and retail turnover. In the first nine months of 2021, retail turnover was 10.0% higher than the comparable period in 2020. Footfall in the STOP SHOPs was 3.2% lower than the previous year during the months from January to September 2021 – including the COVID-19-related shutdown days – whereby entertainment and fitness were the most affected.

For the VIVO! shopping centers, the easing of restrictions during the second quarter had a very positive effect. Footfall was 13.8% higher year-on-year during the months from January to September 2021 – including the COVID-19-related shutdown days – while retail revenues rose by 25.0%. This sizeable increase is attributable, above all, to the four VIVO! shopping centers in Romania, which were affected by extensive shutdowns in the previous year up to mid-June 2020.

In the first three quarters of 2021, 98.0% of the invoiced rents (after the deduction of rental reductions and write-downs) for space in the office and retail properties had been paid by mid-November (retail: 97.0%, office: 98.5%). This high percentage speaks for IMMOFINANZ's intensive and professional communications with tenants on this subject as well as their financial standing and the appropriateness of the temporary support agreements. The rental reductions granted during this period amounted to 7.1% of the contractual rents (retail: 10.8%, office: 3.8%).

Property portfolio

The IMMOFINANZ property portfolio covered 207 properties as of 30 September 2021 (31 December 2020: 209) with a combined value of EUR 5,046.4 million (31 December 2020: EUR 4,978.9 million). These properties are located, above all, in the core markets of Austria, Germany, Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania and Adriatic. Standing investments represent the largest component at EUR 4,506.2 million, or 89.3% of the carrying amount, and 2.0 million sqm, which generate steady rental income. The development projects total EUR 377.5 million, or 7.5% of the carrying amount. Pipeline projects are responsible for EUR 162.7 million, or 3.2%, and include future planned development projects, undeveloped land, real estate inventories and properties that are intended for sale.

Properties that are held for sale and fall under IFRS 5 are, as in the past, not included in the portfolio report (see section 3.3 in the supplementary information to the consolidated interim financial statements).

The portfolio is focused on three clearly defined brands with a high degree of standardisation: myhive stands for flexible, international office solutions, STOP SHOP for retail parks and VIVO! for shopping centers. Properties in these three brands were responsible for 78.2% of the carrying amount of the standing investment portfolio and 83.5% of rental income at the end of September 2021 (Q3 2021). A further 10.1% of the carrying amount is attributable to office buildings which are rented to single tenants. The largest of these properties are the City Tower in Vienna, which is leased to the Austrian government, and the FLOAT in Düsseldorf.

A geographical analysis shows 49.2% of the property portfolio in Austria, Germany and Poland, i.e. in so-called "developed markets" as defined by FTSE EPRA/NAREIT.

The application of IFRS 16 since the first quarter of 2019 leads to differences between the amounts presented in the portfolio report and on the balance sheet. Expert appraisals or internal valuation form the basis for the property values in the portfolio report. The reported property values on the balance sheet also include capitalised rights of use for building rights.

In line with the strategic expansion of business activities in Slovenia, Serbia and Croatia, IMMOFINANZ decided to combine these three countries into a new segment Adriatic which has been reported separately since the first quarter of 2021. These three countries were previously included under the Other countries segment. IMMOFINANZ entered the market in Italy with its STOP SHOP retail park brand during July 2021; business activities in this country will also be included in the Adriatic segment.

Property acquisitions

IMMOFINANZ continued the strategic expansion of its flexible international myhive office brand, as announced, in the first three quarters of 2021 and acquired the Bucharest Financial Plaza office building from the Erste Group subsidiary Banca Comercială Română on 23 March. Plans include its modernisation and conversion into a high-quality, ESG-compliant myhive building with "Gold" sustainability certification as a minimum. The gross rental space is expected to total roughly 27,700 sqm after the refurbishment. The transaction costs amounted to EUR 36.0 million. The acquisition of four retail parks in Serbia, which was announced in 2020, also closed during the first quarter of 2021. This real estate package in Serbia covers locations in Leskovac, Šabac, Sombor and Zaječar with approximately 28,200 sqm of rentable space.

In July 2021, IMMOFINANZ acquired a fully rented retail park in the north Italian city of San Fiore with roughly 27,000 sqm of rentable space which will operate in the future as the STOP SHOP San Fior. The seller was the international investment bank Barings, and the sale price totalled approximately EUR 35.0 million, or a purchase return of 8.2%. The transaction closed on 2 July, and the retail park is included in this interim financial report under the Adriatic segment for the first time. This acquisition continues the expansion of IMMOFINANZ's successful and crisis-resistant STOP SHOP retail brand and, with Italy, opens a new market in Western Europe.

Investments

Investments in the real estate portfolio totalled EUR 156.4 million in the first nine months of 2021 (Q1–3 2020: EUR 85.4 million).

Property sales

In spite of the still challenging market environment, properties totalling EUR 259.6 million (including IFRS 5) were sold during the first three quarters of 2021. Included here are the Cluster Produktionstechnik office building in Aachen, which was sold to Axa for approximately EUR 124.0 million, as well as four office buildings in Warsaw that were purchased by the Indotek Group and three smaller office properties and land in Budapest.

Standing investments

The 156 standing investments had a combined carrying amount of EUR 4,506.2 million as of 30 September 2021 (31 December 2020: 153 standing investments with a carrying amount of EUR 4,428.5 million). Of this total, 60.8% are attributable to office properties and 39.2% to retail properties. The focal point of the standing investments based on the carrying amount are the markets in Poland (EUR 975.2 million), Austria (EUR 798.7 million) and Romania (EUR 612.8 million). The rentable space in this portfolio totalled 1,981,375 sqm (31 December 2020: 1,953,460 sqm). The standing investment portfolio has a gross return of 5.9% based on IFRS rental income and a return of 6.3% based on invoiced rents. The difference is explained by the accrual of rental incentives – e.g. the standard market practice of granting rent-free periods or allowances for fit-out costs. These incentives must be accrued on a straight-line basis over the contract term in accordance with IFRS (basis for gross return under IFRS) but are not included in the invoiced rent.

The occupancy rate equalled 94.1% as of 30 September 2021 (30 September 2020: 95.5%; 31 December 2020: 96.0%). The slight decline below the level at year-end 2020 resulted primarily from an agreement with a single tenant in Germany who was hard hit by the COVID-19 pandemic to reduce the amount of rented space beginning in 2021. These vacant areas will now be marketed as flexible myhive solutions. According to the EPRA's calculation formula, the vacancy rate equals 6.3% (30 September 2020: 4.4%; 31 December 2020: 4.0%). The EPRA vacancy rate is based on the ratio of the estimated market rent for the vacant space in the standing investments to the total estimated market rent for the standing investment portfolio (additional information on the EPRA financial indicators can be found beginning on page 9). In spite of the challenging market conditions, take-up amounted to approximately 337,800 sqm, or roughly 17% of the total rentable space, in the first nine months of 2021 (excluding standing investments in the Other asset class; Q1–3 2020: 416,800 sqm). The total take-up includes 62,800 sqm of new rentals and 275,000 sqm of contract extensions (Q1–3 2020: 34,300 sqm and 382,500 sqm). The average unexpired lease term (WAULT ) weighted by rental income equalled 4.2 years as of 30 September 2021 (31 December 2020: 4.2 years).

Like-for-like rental income

A like-for-like analysis (i.e. acquisitions, completions and sales are deducted to facilitate comparison with Q3 2020) shows an increase of roughly 3% in rental income to EUR 62.8 million in the third quarter of 2021. The Adriatic region has recovered from the negative effects on the retail sector that resulted from the COVID-19 restrictions in the third quarter of the previous year. The slight decline in Poland is primarily attributable to the IFRS-related accrual of rental incentives in connection with the extension of rental contracts in a large office property. In Romania, the modernisation of the VIVO! Baia Mare shopping center, which has since been completed, led to a slight decline in like-for-like rental income.

Office standing investments

The carrying amount of the 45 office standing investments totalled EUR 2,738.6 million as of 30 September 2021 (31 December 2020: 47 standing investments with a carrying amount of EUR 2,749.9 million). These assets represented 60.8% of the standing investment portfolio and 47.4% of the rental income from standing investments in the third quarter of 2021. A regional analysis shows the focal points of the IMMOFINANZ office properties in the core markets of Poland (EUR 695.4 million), Austria (EUR 655.2 million) and Germany (EUR 449.2 million).

The rentable space totalled 909,847 sqm as of 30 September 2021 (31 December 2020: 940,303 sqm). Based on annualised rents (Q3 2021: EUR 31.6 million), the office portfolio generated a gross return of 4.6% and a return of 5.0% based on invoiced rents. The office properties in the myhive brand represent a carrying amount of EUR 1,764.9 million and generated a gross return of 4.7%, respectively 5.2% based on invoiced rents.

The occupancy rate in the office portfolio equalled 90.2% at the end of September 2021 (30 September 2020: 93.4%; 31 December 2020: 93.7%), whereby the decline since the beginning of the year resulted primarily from an agreement for the reduction of space for a single tenant in Germany who was severely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. These vacant areas will now be marketed as flexible myhive solutions. Based on the EPRA's calculation formula, the vacancy rate equalled 9.2% (30 September 2020: 5.9%; 31 December 2020: 5.5%). Despite the challenging market environment, take-up in the office business was stable at approximately 105,800 sqm (Q1–3 2020: 106,500 sqm). Nearly 36,000 sqm represented new rentals, including a 25-year lease for roughly 11,000 sqm with the Provita Group, a leading medical center provider in Romania. Contract extensions amounted to 69,800 sqm (Q1–3 2020: 23,500 sqm of new rentals and 83,000 sqm of contract extensions).

The office portfolio has a balanced tenant structure. As of 30 September 2021 the ten largest tenants are responsible for 22.7% of the space in the office standing investments, and no single tenant has rented more than 3.3% of the total space in these properties. The WAULT equalled 4.1 years as of 30 September 2021 (31 December 2020: 4.4 years).

Retail standing investments

The carrying amount of the 111 standing investments in the retail sector totalled EUR 1,767.6 million as of 30 September 2021 (31 December 2020: 105 standing investments with a carrying amount of EUR 1,671.1 million). These properties represented 39.2% of the standing investment portfolio and generated 52.6% of the rental income from standing investments in the third quarter of 2021. The largest regional markets are the Adriatic region (Serbia, Slovenia, Croatia and Italy) with EUR 364.2 million, Romania with EUR 327.5 million and Poland with EUR 279.8 million. The STOP SHOP retail parks represent a carrying amount of EUR 1,097.3 million and a gross return of 8.0%, respectively 8.1% based on invoiced rents. The VIVO! shopping centers have a carrying amount of EUR 659.5 million; they generated a gross return of 7.8% and an invoiced rental return of 8.2%.

Based on annualised rents (Q3 2021: EUR 35.0 million), the retail portfolio has a gross return of 7.9%, respectively 8.2% based on invoiced rents. The rentable space in these properties totalled 1,071,528 sqm (31 December 2020: 1,013,157 sqm). The occupancy rate in this portfolio equalled a high 97.4% as of 30 September 2021 (30 September 2020: 97.6%; 31 December 2020: 98.1%), whereby the comparable figures for the STOP SHOP retail parks and VIVO! shopping centers were 99.0% and 93.8% respectively. The occupancy rate in the VIVO! shopping centers was temporarily reduced by the modernisation of the VIVO! Baia Mare shopping center, which has since been completed. Take-up in the retail properties amounted to roughly 232,000 sqm in the first nine months of 2021(Q1–3 2020: 310,300 sqm). Approximately 26,800 sqm were attributable to new rentals and 205,200 sqm to contract extensions (Q1–3 2020: 10,800 sqm and 299,500 sqm). The extensions were concluded, among others, in return for temporary support provided by IMMOFINANZ during the lockdown phases.

IMMOFINANZ relies on a balanced tenant mix to create an optimal environment for retailers and their customers. The retail properties have solid international and local anchor tenants, but no single retailer has rented more than 4.1% of the total space in these properties. The WAULT rose to 4.5 years as of 30 September 2021 (31 December 2020: 3.9 years).

Development projects

The development projects had a carrying amount of EUR 377.5 million as of 30 September 2021, which represents 7.5% of the total property portfolio (31 December 2020: EUR 358.6 million and 7.2%). This amount includes EUR 375.5 million of active development projects and EUR 1.9 million of projects in the preparation or concept phase, for which outstanding construction costs are not yet available. Examples are the STOP SHOP projects in Croatia and Poland. The expected fair value of the active projects on completion amounts to EUR 562.4 million. The core markets of Germany (myhive Medienhafen in Düsseldorf) and Romania (modernisation of two existing office properties and the conversion of one of these office properties into a multidisciplinary hospital as well as the renovation of the Bucharest Financial Plaza, which was acquired in the first quarter of 2021, into a high-quality, sustainable office property under the flexible myhive premium brand) represent the focus of these activities based on an expected fair value after completion of EUR 168.1 million and EUR 148.8 million respectively. The active development projects in Austria include three office building refurbishments in Vienna, whereby the modernisation of a building at the myhive Wienerberg has already been concluded.

3.2 Equity-accounted investments

The carrying amount of the equity-accounted investments totalled EUR 516.5 million as of 30 September 2021, whereby EUR 511.8 million are attributable to S IMMO AG. Based on the 19,499,437 shares held by IMMOFINANZ, the book value per share of S IMMO AG equals EUR 26.25. The share of results from equity-accounted investments reported on the income statement amounted to EUR 131.5 million, including EUR 128.0 million for S IMMO AG.

There were no objective indications of impairment to the S IMMO investment as of 30 September 2021.

3.4 Equity

IMMOFINANZ exercised its right for the premature mandatory conversion of the 4% mandatory convertible bond due in 2023 at the total nominal amount of EUR 120 million in accordance with the issue terms of this bond on the optional mandatory conversion date of 26 September 2021. This premature mandatory conversion resulted in the issue of 6,997,200 shares to the holders of the mandatory convertible bond. The shares were delivered from IMMOFINANZ's stock of treasury shares on 5 October 2021.

The 28th annual general meeting on 19 October 2021 approved the distribution of a EUR 0.75 dividend per share for the 2020 financial year. A total of EUR 92.5 million was distributed to shareholders on 25 October 2021.

The penalty payments for the premature termination of rental contracts have been reported under rental income, instead of under other revenues, since 1 January 2021. This change in presentation amounted to EUR 8.0 million for the first three quarters of 2021 (2020: EUR 0.8 million).

In addition, income from the non-performance-related components of operating costs has been reported separately since the third quarter of 2021, independent of any assignment to the office, retail and other asset classes. This revenue is derived from land taxes and building insurance.

COVID-19 led to the legally mandated suspension of rental payments in individual countries during the first three quarters of 2021. In addition, voluntary retrospective and prospective rental price reductions were agreed. The pure suspension of rental payments does not have an impact on recognised revenues. Rental price reductions for future periods will be distributed over the remaining term of the respective contract as lease incentives. Previously invoiced rental payments were written down and expensed accordingly (information on the receivables write-offs resulting from COVID-19 is provided in section 4.2).

4.2 Expenses from investment property

All amounts in TEUR Q1–3 2021 Q1–3 2020

Total -43,424 -49,065

The decline in write-off of receivables is attributable to the increased write-offs in the previous year which resulted from COVID-19. The write-off of receivables of EUR -10.9 million for the first three quarters of 2021 resulted, for the most part, from COVID-19.

The positive amount under other expenses resulted from the release of liabilities.

Income from derecognised liabilities 498 121

Total 1,514 1,471

The income from derecognised liabilities consists primarily of an expired, non-refundable advance purchase price of TEUR 324 in the Other Countries operating segment.

The miscellaneous other operating income in 2021 consisted primarily of income from the extension of an easement in Poland (TEUR 250) and from tax credits and income from rental contract registration fees.

Other write-downs -1,242 -1,103
Miscellaneous -2,288 -2,884
Total -32,336 -35,832

The negative effect from penalty payments resulted primarily from a TEUR 500 addition to provisions for guarantees in Germany.

The decrease in other operating expenses resulted, above all, from a substantial year-on-year decline in taxes, levies and personnel expenses. In the first three quarters of 2020, taxes and levies included the write-off of EUR 1.8 million in uncollectible tax receivables in Romania.

4.7 Revaluation results from investment property and goodwill

The results from the revaluation of investment properties and goodwill in 2021 consist solely of effects from property valuation.

AC: financial assets/liabilities measured at amortised cost

The profit or loss on other financial instruments and proceeds on the disposal of financial instruments include income of EUR 8.3 million from the derecognition of an interest liability related to the cancellation of coupon payments for the mandatory convertible bond. The derecognition was based on the contractually stipulated possibility for premature mandatory conversion at the issuer's option, which took place in September 2021 (also see section 3.4).

The valuation of financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss consists primarily of results from the measurement of derivative financial instruments (interest rate swaps).

Information on the net profit or loss from equity-accounted investments is provided in section 3.2.
