Rental income rose by 0.5%, or EUR 0.4 million, to EUR 74.8 million in the first quarter of 2021. Business activities in the previous year were only influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic beginning in mid-March, but the entire first quarter of 2021 was affected by containment measures and related temporary shutdowns. The 37.7% increase in property expenses to EUR -17.1 million (Q1 2020: EUR -12.4 million) is, consequently, a result of the higher write-offs of rents receivable in the results of asset management. These write-offs totalled EUR -6.2 million in the first quarter of 2021, compared with EUR -1.4 million in the first quarter of 2020 and represent important measures to support our tenants during the pandemic.

The COVID-19 crisis was responsible for a year-on-year decline of 7.7% in the results of asset management to EUR 54.9 million (Q1 2020: EUR 59.5 million). In contrast, the results of property sales improved to EUR -0.4 million (Q1 2020: EUR -1.8 million). Property sales totalling EUR 24.8 million were concluded during the first quarter, in particular with the sale of two office properties in Budapest. The results of property development turned positive at EUR 1.1 million (Q1 2020: EUR -0.7 million).

Results of operations

Other operating expenses improved by 26.8% to EUR -10.1 million due to the absence of a non-recurring effect from the previous year (Q1 2020: EUR -13.8 million). The results of operations therefore rose by 6.7% to EUR 46.4 million (Q1 2020: EUR 43.5 million).

Revaluation and operating profit

Results from the revaluation of standing investments equalled EUR 1.0 million, compared with write-downs of EUR -45.0 million to reflect the adverse effects of the COVID-19 pandemic in the first quarter of 2020. Operating profit (EBIT) therefore improved significantly to EUR 47.4 million (Q1 2020: EUR -1.5 million).

Financial results and taxes

Financing costs were stable at EUR -20.0 million (Q1 2020: EUR -19.5 million) despite a year-on-year increase of roughly 13.2% in the financing volume. Average financing costs, including hedging, equalled 1.98% per year (31 December 2020: 1.99%). The other financial results of EUR 8.9 million (Q1 2020: EUR -5.3 million) resulted primarily from the valuation of interest rate derivatives (Q1 2021: EUR 9.5 million) following an increase in long-term interest rates.

The share of results from equity-accounted investments increased to EUR 90.9 million (Q1 2020: EUR -4.2 million). Of this total, EUR 88.0 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 contribution of EUR 2.8 million). Financial results totalled EUR 79.7 million (Q1 2020: EUR -30.3 million).

Net profit

Profit before tax improved significantly to EUR 127.0 million (Q1 2020: EUR -31.8 million). After the deduction of EUR -4.0 million (Q1 2020: EUR -5.9 million) in income taxes, net profit amounted to EUR 123.1 million (Q1 2020: EUR -37.6 million). That represents earnings per share (basic) of EUR 1.00 (Q1 2020: EUR 0.37).

Funds from Operations (FFO)

FFO 1 from the standing investment business (before tax and including accrued interest for bonds) amounted to EUR 34.5 million (Q1 2020: EUR 40.0 million). This decline is attributable, above all, to the year-on-year, crisis-related increase in receivables write-offs from asset management. The FFO 1 calculations include the accrued interest for coupon payments on bonds (effect in Q1 2021: EUR 7.6 million). FFO 1 per share equalled EUR 0.28, compared with EUR 0.40 in the first quarter of 2020 (see the following table for the number of shares used in the calculation).

IMMOFINANZ has a robust balance sheet structure with an equity ratio of 46.3% (31 December 2020: 45.1%). The net loan to value equalled 39.5%.

The value of the property portfolio amounts to EUR 5.3 billion and represents 76.3% 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 463.7 million include EUR 459.8 million which are 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 23.58 (31 December 2020: EUR 18.65). As indicated above, the S IMMO investment was written up by EUR 85.3 million.

Cash and cash equivalents totalled EUR 897.2 million (including cash and cash equivalents held for sale, EUR 900.0 million). The decline since 31 December 2020 was based, among others, on the annual coupon payment in January for the corporate bond 2019–2023 and on various acquisitions for the STOP SHOP retail park portfolio in the Adriatic segment.

EPRA Financial Indicators

EPRA net asset value

The EPRA recommends publishing a revised version of the net asset value indicators (NAV indicators) beginning with the financial statements for 2020 to better reflect current market trends and company developments. The two previously published indicators – net asset value (NAV) and triple net asset value (NNNAV) – will be 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 (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 31 March 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 were 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 31 March 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 EPRA NTA per share rose by 3.7% to EUR 28.86 as of 31 March 2021 (31 December 2020: EUR 27.82). This increase is primarily attributable to the positive development of earnings during the first quarter of 2021 (see the following reconciliation).

The book value per share equalled EUR 26.24 as of 31 March 2021 (31 December 2020: EUR 25.20).

EPRA vacancy rate by asset class and brand

The EPRA vacancy rate equalled 5.9% as of 31 March 2021 (31 December 2020: 4.0%) and rose to 8.4% 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 2.8%, whereby the STOP SHOP retail parks had the lowest vacancy rate as of 31 March 2021 at 1.8%.

This increase resulted from the crisis-related rise in expenses for investment properties. The receivables write-offs from asset management included in the calculation rose to EUR -6.2 million (Q1 2020: EUR -1.4 million).

1 The comparative period data were adjusted.

Capital expenditure totalled EUR 95.3 million in the first quarter of 2021 and was concentrated on properties solely owned by IMMOFINANZ (Q1 2020: EUR 29.7 million). Major projects included the development of the myhive Medienhafen in Düsseldorf, the modernisation of existing office properties in Romania and Vienna as well as the acquisition of the Bucharest Financial Plaza in the first quarter of 2021.

The acquisition of four retail parks in Serbia, which was reported in 2020, also closed during the first quarter of 2021. This real estate package in Serbia includes locations in Leskovac, Šabac, Sombor and Zaječar. The purchase of land in Croatia was also finalised in the first quarter of 2021.

Capital expenditure in investment properties totalled EUR 11.4 million and was related primarily to the myhive Medienhafen Largo (Düsseldorf, formerly the trivago Campus), myhive Ungargasse (Vienna) and myhive Warsaw Spire (Warsaw). Capital expenditure in 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 31 March 2021 (31 December 2020: EUR 3.2 billion). Cash and cash equivalents, including cash and cash equivalents held for sale, amounted to EUR 900.0 million (31 December 2020: EUR 1,051.4 million), and net debt, i.e. debt after the deduction of cash and cash equivalents held by the Group, equalled EUR 2.2 billion (31 December 2020: EUR 2.1 billion).

The unsecured, revolving credit line of EUR 100.0 million concluded at the end of March 2020 was not in use as of the balance sheet date and is therefore available in full. This credit line can be used at the company's discretion up to 31 March 2022 and gives IMMOFINANZ added financial flexibility.

IMMOFINANZ has a robust balance sheet structure with an equity ratio of 46.3% (31 December 2020: 45.1%) and a net loan-to-value ratio (net LTV) of 39.5% (31 December 2020: 37.8%).

Portfolio Report

COVID-19 update

The COVID-19 pandemic only influenced the first quarter of 2020 as of mid-March, but its impact covered the first three months of 2021 in full. The spread of new COVID-19 mutations combined with the slow progress of vaccinations and problems with vaccine deliveries at the beginning of the year led to renewed or extended containment measures by many governments, which included temporary shutdowns in the retail trade and further lockdowns. Roughly 48% of the rented retail space was closed on a temporary basis at the end of March 2021. However, the situation improved substantially during the second quarter with the progress of the EU-wide vaccination campaigns and only 1% of the retail space was closed on a temporary basis in mid-May. This mainly affected the VIVO! Hostivař shopping center in Prague.

Similar to developments during the earlier waves, visitor frequency in the retail parks recovered very quickly after the end of the lockdowns. The STOP SHOP retail parks benefit from direct access to the individual stores from the parking areas and a focus on everyday products. Statistics also showed that people shopped less frequently but spent more per visit as a result of the pandemic, a development that is reflected in the visitor frequency and turnover. Footfall in the STOP SHOPs was 27.7% lower year-on-year from January to March 2021, including the COVID-19-related shutdown days, but revenues declined by only 10.4%.

Footfall in the VIVO! shopping centers was 16.8% lower year-on-year from January to March 2021, including the COVID-19-related shutdown days, while retail revenues declined by only 11.9%.

Roughly 92% of the contract rents (after the deduction of rent reductions and impairment losses) invoiced during the first quarter of 2021 for space in the office and retail properties had been paid by the end of April 2021 (retail: 86%, office: 97%). This high percentage demonstrates the quality of IMMOFINANZ's tenants and the appropriateness of the temporary support agreements. The rental reductions granted during this period amounted to 7.8% of the contractual rents (retail: 11.3%, office: 5.2%).

Property portfolio

The IMMOFINANZ portfolio covered 216 properties as of 31 March 2021 (31 December 2020: 209) with a combined value of EUR 5,070.5 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 and Romania. Standing investments represent the largest component at EUR 4,541.8 million, or 89.6% of the carrying amount, and 2.0 million sqm of rentable space, which generate steady rental income. The development projects total EUR 355.7 million, or 7.0% of the carrying amount. Pipeline projects are responsible for EUR 173.0 million, or 3.4%, and include future planned development projects, undeveloped land, real estate inventories and properties that are intended for sale.

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 74.1% of the carrying amount of the standing investment portfolio and 78.8% of rental income at the end of March 2021 (Q1 2021). A further 10.4% 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 49.7% 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 has decided to combine these three countries into the new segment "Adriatic" which will be reported separately beginning with the first quarter of 2021. These three countries were previously included under the "Other countries" segment.

Property acquisitions

IMMOFINANZ continued the strategic expansion of its flexible international myhive office brand, as announced, and acquired the Bucharest Financial Plaza office building from the Erste-Group subsidiary Banca Comercială Română (BCR) in the first quarter of 2021. Plans include its modernisation and conversion into a high-quality, green myhive building with "Gold" sustainability certification as a minimum. The gross rental space is expected to total 27,700 sqm after the refurbishment. The transaction costs amounted to approximately EUR 36.0 million, and the closing took place on 23 March 2021.

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.

Investments

Investments in the real estate portfolio totalled EUR 97.8 million in the first quarter of 2021 (Q1 2020: EUR 29.7 million). The pandemic was responsible for isolated delays on development projects. In addition, non-essential investments were postponed to protect liquidity. Most of the investments in 2021 were related to the myhive Victoriei (Bucharest), myhive Medienhafen (Düsseldorf) and myhive Warsaw Spire (Warsaw) as well as several STOP SHOP retail parks.

Property sales

In spite of the still challenging market environment, properties totalling EUR 24.8 million were sold during the first quarter of 2021 (excl. proceeds from the sale of real estate inventories; Q1 2020: EUR 49.0 million). These transactions included, among others, two office properties in Hungary as well as land in Turkey and Romania. The closing for the sale of four office buildings in Warsaw to the Indotek Group also took place shortly after the end of the reporting period. These buildings have 45,300 sqm of rentable space in total. The sale price equalled EUR 72.5 million. The signing with the buyer took place before the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the transaction closed on 8 April 2021.

Standing investments

The 159 standing investments had a combined carrying amount of EUR 4,541.8 million as of 31 March 2021 (31 December 2020: 153 standing investments with a carrying amount of EUR 4,428.5 million). Of this total, 62.1% are attributable to office properties and 37.7% to retail properties. The focal point of the standing investments based on the carrying amount are the markets in Poland (EUR 978.5 million), Austria (EUR 777.8 million) and Romania (EUR 608.5 million). The rentable space in this portfolio totalled 2,003,907 sqm (31 December 2020: 2,001,063 sqm). The standing investment portfolio has a gross return of 5.8% based on IFRS rental income and a return of 6.1% 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 94.5% (31 March 2020: 96.4%; 31 December 2020: 96.0%). The 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 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 5.9% (31 March 2020: 3.4%; 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 7). The average unexpired lease term (WAULT∗∗) weighted by rental income equalled 4.1 years as of 31 March 2021 (31 December 2020: 4.2 years).

The return was adjusted for a non-recurring effect in the form of a settlement payment for the reduction in space beginning in 2021. It involves a large tenant in Germany who was severely affected by the pandemic.

Office standing investments

The carrying amount of the 48 office standing investments totalled EUR 2,820.5 million as of 31 March 2021 (31 December 2020: 47 standing investments with a carrying amount of EUR 2,749.9 million). These assets represented 62.1% of the standing investment portfolio and 49.9% of the rental income from standing investments in the first quarter of 2021. A regional analysis shows the focal points of the IMMOFINANZ office properties in the core markets of Poland (EUR 694.9 million), Austria (EUR 635.6 million) and Germany (EUR 530.5 million).

The reclassification of the myhive Ungargasse in Vienna from development projects to standing investments led to an increase in rentable space to 956,742 sqm as of 31 March 2021 (31 December 2020: 940,303 sqm). Based on annualised rents (Q1 2021: EUR 32.9 million ), the office portfolio generated a gross return of 4.7% and a return of 5.1% based on invoiced rents. The office properties in the myhive brand represent a carrying amount of EUR 1,663.8 million and generated a gross return of 4.6% , respectively 5.0% based on invoiced rents. The occupancy rate in the office portfolio equalled 91.3% (31 March 2020: 95.4%; 31 December 2020: 93.7%), whereby the decline 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. The myhive offices have an occupancy rate of 90.1%. Based on the EPRA's calculation formula, the vacancy rate equals 8.4% (31 March 2020: 4.1%; 31 December 2020: 5.5%).

The COVID-19 pandemic – with the accompanying shift to home office work in many companies – has accelerated the current digitalisation trend in the office sector. Even under the assumption that home office will play a slightly less important role in the future, the tenants' wish for greater flexibility is increasing. IMMOFINANZ is well positioned with its flexible myhive office concept and offers tenants properties at good locations in a high-quality office and community environment with excellent service, infrastructure and a friendly atmosphere. Tenants only pay for the space they need and can make short-term adjustments where necessary.

Retail standing investments

The carrying amount of the 110 standing investments in the retail sector totalled EUR 1,713.8 million as of 31 March 2021 (31 December 2020: 105 standing investments with a carrying amount of EUR 1,671.1 million). These properties represented 37.7% of the standing investment portfolio and generated 50.0% of the rental income from standing investments in the first quarter of 2021. The largest regional markets are the Adriatic region (Serbia, Slovenia and Croatia) with EUR 323.7 million, Romania with EUR 321.3 million and Poland with EUR 283.6 million. The STOP SHOP retail parks have a carrying amount of EUR 1,044.4 million and a gross return of 7.7%, respectively 7.9% based on invoiced rents. The VIVO! shopping centers have a carrying amount of EUR 658.6 million; they generate a gross return of 7.7% and an invoiced rental return of 8.1%.

The closing for the acquisition of five STOP SHOP retail parks in Serbia and Croatia led to an increase in the rentable space to 1,047,165 sqm as of 31 March 2021 (31 December 2020: 1,013,157 sqm). Based on annualised rents (Q1 2021: EUR 33.0 million), the retail portfolio has a gross return of 7.7%, respectively 7.9% based on invoiced rents. The occupancy rate in the retail properties equalled 97.4% as of 31 March 2021 (31 March 2020: 97.5%; 31 December 2020: 98.1%); the STOP SHOP retail parks and VIVO! shopping centers had an occupancy rate of 98.0% and 96.0% at the end of the reporting period.

1 Financing costs based on nominal outstanding liability

The government-ordered temporary shutdowns to contain the COVID-19 pandemic have affected nearly all branches. However, discounters have fared substantially better due to consumers' growing price consciousness. IMMOFINANZ is well positioned with its cost-efficient STOP SHOP and VIVO! retail brands and benefits from its focus on everyday goods and tenants from the discount segment.

Development projects

The development projects had a carrying amount of EUR 355.7 million as of 31 March 2021, which represents 7.0% of the total property portfolio (31 December 2020: EUR 358.6 million and 7.2%). This amount includes EUR 317.5 million of active development projects and EUR 38.2 million of projects in the preparation or concept phase, for which outstanding construction costs are not yet available (i.e. six STOP SHOP projects). The expected fair value of the active projects on completion amounted to EUR 510.7 million. The core markets of Germany and Romania represent the focus of these activities based on an expected fair value after completion of EUR 162.8 million, respectively EUR 150.0 million. The major projects involve the completion of the myhive Medienhafen in Düsseldorf and the modernisation of the IRIDE 18 and 19 buildings in the Bucharest IRIDE Business Park as well as the Bucharest Financial Plaza, which was acquired during the first quarter of 2021 and will now undergo modernisation. Refurbishment projects are currently in progress in two office buildings at the myhive am Wienerberg in Vienna and the myhive Haller Garden office building in Budapest. In the Croatian city of Kaštela, the development of a new STOP SHOP retail park is planned. Construction will start in autumn 2021 and the completion is scheduled for spring 2022.

Supplementary Information

1. Basis of Preparation

The consolidated interim financial report of IMMOFINANZ as of 31 March 2021 was prepared for the period from 1 January 2021 to 31 March 2021 (Q1 2021).

This consolidated interim financial report on IMMOFINANZ does not represent a report prepared in accordance with IAS 34. Information on the applied IFRS, significant accounting policies and further information and disclosures can be found in IMMOFINANZ's consolidated financial statements as of 31 December 2020, which form the basis for this consolidated interim financial report.

The consolidated interim financial report is presented in thousand euros ("TEUR", rounded). The use of automatic data processing equipment can lead to rounding differences in the addition of rounded amounts or percentage rates.

3.1 Investment property

All amounts in TEUR Q1 2021
Beginning balance 4,680,351
Currency translation adjustments -1,574
Additions 52,098
Disposals -3,763
Revaluation 775
Reclassifications 48,286
Ending balance 4,776,173

The most important additions to investment property during the first quarter of 2021 involve the purchase of retail parks in Serbia and Croatia as well as the acquisition of an office property in Bucharest. The reclassifications are related, above all, to transfers from property under construction into the investment property and vice versa in Austria and Croatia. Information on revaluation is provided in section 0.

3.2 Equity-accounted investments

The carrying amount of the equity-accounted investments totalled EUR 463.7 million as of 31 March 2021, whereby EUR 459.8 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 23.58. The share of results from equityaccounted investments reported on the income statement amounts to EUR 90.9 million, including EUR 88.0 million for S IMMO AG.

The significant improvement in the market price of the S IMMO share during the first quarter of 2021 provided objective indications of an increase in the value of this investment as of 31 March 2021. An impairment test was therefore performed, and the carrying amount of the investment was subsequently written up to the fair value less selling costs (in total, EUR 459.8 million). The revaluation equalled EUR 85.3 million and is included under net profit or loss from equity-accounted investments.

3.3 Assets and specific liabilities held for sale

Of the assets and liabilities held for sale as of 31 December 2020, two office properties in Hungary and land in Romania were sold during Q1 2021.

Management's plans to sell remain in effect for the other assets and liabilities which were classified as held for sale as of 31 December 2020, but which had not been sold as of 31 March 2021.

The assets and liabilities held for sale as of 31 March 2021 are summarised as follows:

The penalties for prematurely terminated rental contracts have been included under rental income, instead of under other revenue, since 1 January 2021. This change in presentation equalled EUR 6.7 million in the first quarter of 2021 (2020: EUR 0.4 million).

Concessions were also granted to tenants during the first quarter of 2021 in reaction to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Most of these concessions were granted retroactively and are accounted for as write-off of receivables. Of the EUR -6.2 million in write-off of receivables shown in the above table, EUR -5.4 million are related to COVID-19.

The increase in fit-out costs is attributable, above all, to the implementation of the flexible myhive office concept.

5. Subsequent Events

In line with its strategy, IMMOFINANZ sold four office buildings in Warsaw to the Indotek Group. The selling price amounted to EUR 72.5 million, and the closing took place on 8 April 2021.

IMMOFINANZ published the documents for the voluntary takeover offer to the shareholders of S IMMO AG on 19 May 2021. The offer is limited in time and ranges from 19 May 2021 to 16 July 2021. The offer price equals EUR 22.25 per share and represents a premium of 40.3% over the six-month VWAP of the S IMMO share.

In connection with the takeover offer announced on 19 May 2021, IMMOFINANZ has decided to postpone the annual general meeting. It will be rescheduled for a date after the settlement of the voluntary takeover offer. This will also result in the deferment of the resolutions on the use of profit and the dividend payment for the 2020 financial year.
