ACQUISITION 2 RETAIL BUILDINGS NEAR SHOPPING CITY SÜD IN VÖSENDORF NEAR VIENNA

On 28 August 2019, Leasinvest Real Estate, via its 100% subsidiary Leasinvest Immo Austria, acquired two important retail parks near the largest shopping complex in Austria, Shopping City Süd in Vösendorf, close to Vienna. Shopping City Süd is excellently located in the South of Vienna along the A23, with good connections to the main Austrian cities.

Via the take-over of 100% of the shares of the 2 companies concerned, Leasinvest Real Estate has become the owner of:

  • Retail park Nordring 2-10, situated in Vösendorf, with a surface area of 14,800 m² and 278 parking spaces, housing tenants such as Conrad Electronic, TK Maxx, Swiss Sense, Brendon/Betten Reiter (in 2020), Fit-One, Art-X, Kinderspielwelt, and

  • Retail park Nordring 16, also situated in Vösendorf, with a surface area of 11,350 m², 202 parking spaces and tenants such as Lidl, Pittarello, Action, Bipa and Farben-Partner.

Both retail parks are fully leased and generate an annual rental income of circa € 4 million. These acquisitions represent an investment of € 71.8 million and are in line with the valuation of the independent real estate expert.

Developments

Belgium

OFFICE BUILDING MONTOYER 14: SMART BUILDING IN TIMBER FRAME CONSTRUCTION

The office building Montoyer 14 will become a project that will differentiate itself as to smart technology in combination with a timber frame construction.

It is Leasinvest's ambition to build, together with the Brussels' authorities, the first high building with a timber frame construction, and to become the reference for the new generation of "recyclable buildings".

The building permit request for this project has been introduced end May 2019.

HANGAR 26/27 ANTWERP

In the meantime, the Danish architectural firm CF Moller has been appointed by Leasinvest Real Esate as the architects for developing a high-end mixed project, with extension of offices and retail, and a particular attention to the accessibility between the private spaces and the public space of the quays. The objective is to introduce the building permit request for this project at the beginning of 2020, in order to start the construction works in the course of Q4 2020.

In the meantime an important progress was made together with the architect on the finalization of the project and the preparation of the building permit request.

Leases

Evolution occupancy rate

The occupancy rate has decreased to 93.23% per end September 2019 (94.26% on 31/12/2018).

Leases

GRAND DUCHY OF LUXEMBOURG

For the office building Mercator the CSSF announced not extending the lease and leaving the building at the end of August (5,500 m²). Currently, a "Letter of Intent" was signed with a potential tenant who wishes to lease the vacant space as of the second quarter of 2020. Also for the building Titanium in the "Cloche d'Or" district a "Letter of Intent" has been signed with a potential tenant who would like to lease the remaining space that became vacant after the departure of Alter Domus end 2018, in the course of 2020.

For the buildings Monnet, EBBC and Esch, suffering from a slight vacancy, new leases will be signed in the coming months, solving this rental vacancy.

In Shoppingcenter Knauf Schmiede a C&A family store of 976 m² has opened, as well as an extension of the Selexion shop by 500 m² to a total surface of 760m². Following the internal move of Selexion the extension of Delhaize could start, that will have its largest supermarket in the Belux in Schmiede after these works.

BELGIUM

With 2 new rental contracts the office building Treesquare in the CBD of Brussels is now fully let, and this may be called a great success. With these transactions Leasinvest exceeded the historical prime rent of Brussels with an amount of € 330 /m²/year.

For Tour & Taxis Royal Depot, the building remains fully leased, thanks to another number of important renegotiations and extensions.

Other renegotiations and extensions were recorded in the Brixton Business Park, Riverside Business Park and The Crescent Anderlecht, with a move of 1 of the tenants of the Riverside Business Park to The Crescent Anderlecht.

AUSTRIA

For Frun® Park Asten and Gewerbepark Stadlau a couple of important extensions could again be concluded, the occupancy rate of the Austrian buildings remaining 100%.

Private placement of bonds 2019

Leasinvest Real Estate SCA announces the contemplated private placement of bonds in denominations of EUR 100,000 and with terms of 7 years to 8 years.

BNP Paribas Fortis and Degroof Petercam are appointed as coordinators of the transaction. BNP Paribas Fortis, Degroof Petercam and KBC act as joint bookrunners of the transaction.

Leasinvest Real Estate arranges financing sources best suited to carry out its investment strategy both through acquisitions and redevelopment of existing core assets. With the EUR 75 million public bond which matured on 9 October 2019, the Company is arranging new financing in due time by issuing this new bond, which will also contribute to an increase of the average duration of the total debt. More generally, Leasinvest Real Estate pursues a balance between cost, duration and diversification of its financing sources. It considers a Loan-to-value ratio of around 50%.

In the third quarter of 2019 the portfolio consists of 47% of offices, 47% of retail and 6% of logistics (compared to 51% of offices, 43% of retail and 6% of logistics end 2018).

3. Consolidated results period 01/01/2019 – 30/09/2019

The results of the third quarter of 2019 are in line with the outlook and reflect the current developments in the real estate portfolio.

The rental income has strongly risen compared to the first 9 months of the previous year: € 48.7 million per Q3 2019 vs € 41.9 million per Q3 2018. In the Belgian portfolio the rental income increases by the acquisition of Hangar 26-27 end 2018 and by the reception of Treesquare and Montoyer 63 mid-2018. In the Luxembourg portfolio the rental income rose for EBBC, by the acquisition of the buildings A and C end 2018 and the buildings B and E in June 2019. In the Austrian portfolio the rental income rose by the acquisition of 2 retail parcs end of August 2019.

The like-for-like rental growth amounts to € 2.8 million, mainly as a consequence of the increase in rental income in Belgium (higher occupancy in De Mot, The Crescent Brussels and the delivered projects Montoyer 63 and Treesquare).

The gross rental yields have decreased in comparison with end 2018 and amount to 5.96% (6.45% end 2018) based on the fair value, and to 5.84% (6,32% end 2018) based on the investment value; the occupancy rate has slightly decreased to 93.23% (end 2018: 94.26%).

The property charges have increased (€ 1.0 million) from - € 6.2 million per Q3 2018 to - € 7.2 million per Q3 2019, mainly due to higher property management costs (+€ 0.6 million) and an increase in vacancy costs (+€ 0.2 million) in reason of the portfolio growth.

The general corporate charges increase by € 0.2 million, mainly due to a higher subscription tax in function of the (increased) shareholders' equity. The operating margin (operating result before the portfolio result/rental income) rises from 76.7% in Q3 2018 to 77.0% in Q3 2019.

The result on the sale of investment properties of € 0.8 million comprises the realized gain on the building Kennedy in Luxembourg, sold in January 2019.

The changes in fair value of the investment properties on 30/09/2019 amount to + € 3.6 million (30/09/2018: - € 90 K). The increase is mainly due to capital gains recognized on the recently acquired buildings B and E of the EBBC Business Center near Luxembourg airport and both

retail parks in Vösendorf that were acquired at the end of August 2019. Capital losses were mainly recorded on the buildings in the periphery of Brussels. There is also a one-off effect following the first application of IFRS 16.

The financial result (excluding revaluations of financial assets and liabilities) amounts to - € 5.3 million on 30/09/2019 in comparison with - € 6.5 million on 30/09/2018. This decrease is mainly due to, on the one hand, a higher dividend (+€ 0.8 million) received from Retail Estates and, on the other hand, a drop in financial charges by € 0.5 million following the full effect in the income statement of the restructuring of the derivatives portfolio carried out in 2018. Also due to this, the average funding cost has dropped to 2.27%.

The changes in fair value of the financial assets and liabilities (€ 3.8 million) comprise both the revaluation of the participation in Retail Estates (+ € 12.6 million) and the ineffective part of the portfolio of derivatives (- € 9.2 million).

The corporate taxes are stable and amount to € 0.5 million in comparison with € 0.4 million per 30/09/2018.

The net result over Q3 2019 amounts to € 39.6 million versus € 27.2 million on 30/09/2018. In terms of net result per share this results in € 6.69 per share on 30/09/2019 compared to € 5.51 on 30/09/2018.

The EPRA earnings* amount to € 31.5 million on 30 September 2019, compared to € 25.1 million on 30 September 2018. Per share this corresponds to € 5.31 on 30 September 2019 compared with € 5.08 on 30 September 2018.

At the end of the third quarter of the financial year 2019 shareholders' equity, group share (based on the fair value of the investment properties) amounts to € 475.6 million (31/12/2018: € 475.8 million). The net asset value per share excluding the influence of fair value adjustments to financial instruments (EPRA NAV) amounts to € 91.08 end September 2019 in comparison with € 88.7 end 2018. End September 2019 the net asset value including the impact of fair value adjustments to financial instruments (IAS 39) amounts to € 80.2 per share (31/12/2018: € 80.3). The closing price of the Leasinvest Real Estate share on 30 September 2019 stands at € 120.00.

End September 2019 the debt ratio had increased to 55.88% in comparison with 53.53% end 2018, mainly due to a combination of the dividend distribution, the acquisition of the underlying buildings of the real estate certificate Immo Lux Airport and the acquisition of 2 retail parks in Vösendorf (Austria).

4. Management of financial resources

In the course of Q3 a new credit line of € 65 million was concluded for the acquisition of the two retail parks in Vösendorf. An existing credit line of € 25 million with a maturity date end 2019 was extended in the course of September 2019 by 3 years, and the amount was moreover doubled to € 50 million.

As already mentioned in the press release of last 5 November, we currently work on a private placement of a bond in replacement of the retail bond that matured on 9 October 2019.

5. Outlook financial year 2019

As already mentioned in the annual financial report 2018, subject to extraordinary circumstances, LRE expects a higher rental income in comparison with 2018, while the financial costs are expected to be in line with those of the previous year. However, we have to take into account that the number of shares has increased after the capital increase of October 2018, the results of 2019 having to be divided over 5.9 million shares vs 5.2 million shares in 2018, being the weighted average number of shares throughout 2018. Within this scope, a dividend is forecasted that will at least be equal to the dividend over the financial year 2018, namely € 5.10 gross per share.
