"Today's results show how we are actively managing this year of transition. We are taking all the actions required to safeguard our results and to improve our balance sheet. We are deleveraging by selling our Swiss portfolio in 2012, of which 70% has been realized in the first half of 2012. We managed to compensate for the expected decline in rental income and delivered a second quarter direct investment result in line with the first quarter. The cost synergies from the merger are kicking in, and in addition we have taken measures to further increase our efficiency and reduce costs. Another key achievement is the progress we made in our financing base. We significantly reduced our outstanding net debt by €95 million and extended our loan maturities. We refinanced 40% of our total Dutch outstanding loans of € 863 million in only six months' time, mainly consisting of: €225 million with our ING-led syndicate and most recently €121 million with Deutsche Bank."
The uncertainty in the Eurozone and the European political struggle to restructure the financial system continues to dominate market sentiment. As a result sentiment in the real estate markets remains very challenging. At present market indicators show mixed signals regarding the Dutch retail and office markets. Retail turnovers are decreasing, except for food, although most recent research on occupancy (source: Locatus) show stable vacancy rates at 6.3% (NSI at 5%). In the offices market we have seen transaction volumes decreasing and negative revaluations at higher levels in the first half of 2012 than in 2011. However the spread between property yields and risk free rate in the Netherlands is the highest in Europe (source: RREEF).
In the second half of the year NSI will be focusing on:
Operational
Based on the above mentioned areas of focus, NSI expects its direct investment result to develop in the range of €0.97- €1.02 per average outstanding share for the full year 2012. This might be influenced by the amount and timing of the disposals, the exact success rate of the letting activities and new concepts and the amount of new issued shares through the stock dividend program.
The integration between NSI and VNOI has been completed during Q1 2012. The increase in direct investment result in Q2 2012 compared to Q1 2012 is partly due to strict cost management and the cost synergies from the merger starting to have an effect. The achieved synergies related to overhead cost reduction is currently reaching €0.5 million per quarter. Besides these overhead costs synergies, NSI will continue to focus on driving operational synergies. NSI recently demonstrated how the larger scale of its office portfolio contributes to tenant retention due to its increased ability to satisfy changing housing requirements of tenants; e.g. NSI recently relocated a tenant from a NSI property to a former VNOI property.
NSI's HY 2012 total investment result was €45.7 million negative (Q2 2012:- €28.6million). This mainly results from a positive operational result and negative revaluations of properties, in particular in the Dutch office portfolio.
During Q2 2012, NSI achieved a direct investment result of €16.4 million, and € 32.6 million for HY 2012 (HY 2011: € 26.3 million). Also compared to Q1 2012 (€ 16.2 million), the direct investment result showed a slight increase due to lower operational, administrative and financing costs, offset by lower occupancy levels. Compared to Q1 2012, NSI was able to offset the anticipated decline in rental income by increasing focus on cost control, delivering upon cost synergies from the merger and lower financing costs. In addition to cost synergies due to reduced overhead costs, savings resulted from the integration of operations, including applying NSI's approach to portfolio management to the VNOI portfolio. An example of the latter is the insourcing of technical property management, which is by now being applied to approximately 50% of the former VNOI portfolio with the remaining part to be finalized during the remainder of 2012. Next to initiating measures to reduce costs structurally, such as improving cost efficiencies in service costs in vacant properties(for instance by better managing the energy usage), the decline in operating costs also involves a number of one-off items (e.g. the release of provision in Belgium related to Tibotec).
The overall occupancy rate decreased slightly to 81.8% on 30 June 2012 compared to 82.2.% on 31 March 2012. The increase in vacancy is mainly caused by the Dutch office portfolio and the sale of well-let Swiss properties. The effective rental level in the office portfolio remained stable at € 120/ sqm.
The take up of office space in the Dutch office portfolio increased, although not sufficient to fully offset the above-average lease expiration level, which resulted in a decreased occupancy rate of 71.7% (Q1 2012: 73.4%). In HY 2012, 35 contracts involving 21,585 sqm of relettings and 33,114 sqm of new lettings have been signed, totaling 8.7% of the office portfolio. Part of the vacancy level of 28.3% at 30 June 2012 can be explained by assets that are currently in the process of being redeveloped and accordingly temporarily not available for leasing, but these are included in the reported vacancy level. The Red Elephant (de Rode Olifant, The Hague) is already fully let and will contribute approx. 2% in the occupancy rate once completed, which is expected by end of Q4 2012.
The redevelopment of het Vasteland (reflecting approx. 2% of the vacancy level) into HNK Rotterdam is progressing according to plan and expected to be completed by the end of Q3 2012. The pre-marketing of HNK Rotterdam has recently started.
Renewing existing leases remains top priority. NSI pro-actively approaches tenants well before contracts expire to enable a timely and appropriate renewal offer. In Q2 2012, 15 contracts (13,818 sqm) have been renewed which would expire in 2014, mitigating the expiration calendar by approx. 2%. Furthermore, a number of initiatives are taking place to further enhance NSI's letting propositions, including increased marketing and branding activities.
As indicated previously, an above average number of office leases (23%) expires in 2012, which will also have an effect on the occupancy rates in the second half of the year.
The vacancy rate in the retail portfolio remained at a normal friction level (5%). In Q2 2012, in total 25,302 sqm representing 148 contracts have been signed (8.4% of portfolio), of which the vast majority were renewals. The retention rate of 97% clearly shows the quality of the assets and NSI's ability to provide the right environment to its tenants to run their businesses.
The occupancy rate in Belgium remained stable at 86% overall (Offices: 85%, Logistics: 88%).
Intervest Offices & Warehouses positions itself increasingly as provider of turn-key housing solutions. A flexible leasing concept ("Re:flex; flexible business hub") has recently been launched in the Mechelen Campus Toren. Another highlight is the extension at the logistic site in Oevel, which will be managed as one integrated site with the West Logistics site. The extension is already backed by a new leasing agreement with UTi Belgium, the logistics partner of Estee Lauder.
The negative indirect investment result of €78.3 million (HY 2011 €7.3 million negative) predominantly derived from a revaluationt of - €60.4 million, a negative result on sales of investments (€7.8 million) and an effect of - €10.9 million of the valuation of derivatives. The net result on sales of investments (2 Swiss assets and a number of smaller assets in the Netherlands) includes a book loss (€3.8 million), breakage costs on fixed interest rate CHF loans (€1.9 million), costs of sale (€0.7 million) and a provision for a rental guarantee (€1.3 million). The book loss is partly compensated by the release of a provision for deferred tax liabilities (€1.2 million).
The downward revaluation mainly relates to the office portfolio, in particular in the Dutch portfolio. This development is partly driven by the increased vacancy in NSI's portfolio, but is also reflecting the high vacancy level in the market in general due to oversupply, resulting in ongoing pressure on property values.
The number of outstanding shares increased from 60.2 million (31 March 2012) to 66.0 million (30 June 2012) as a result of the private placement and stock dividend.
Net asset value per share, including deferred taxes and the market value of the derivatives, decreased from € 12.68 on 31 March 2012 to € 11.26 on 30 June 2012. If the deferred taxes and the value of the derivatives are excluded (the net asset value according to EPRA), the net asset value amounts to €12.38 compared to € 13.83 on 31 March 2012. NSI utilises interest-rate hedging instruments exclusively for hedging of operational interest rate risks. There is not a situation of "overhedging" nor is NSI exposed to margin calls. The value of the financial derivatives automatically reverts to zero at the end of the duration of these instruments.
NSI is committed to reduce its LTV (loan-to-value) to below 55% in the medium term and below 50% in the long term.
NSI improved its LTV from 57.3% at 31 March 2012 to 56.4% at 30 June 2012, despite the revaluation effect of - €33.8 million in Q2, as a result of the proceeds from the sale of assets and the proceeds of the share issue. NSI sold 70% of its Swiss assets in Q2 2012 (proceeds CHF94.5 million) and some smaller Dutch assets. The process of selling the two remaining assets (bookvalue CHF43.9 million) in Switzerland is ongoing, which will further reduce LTV.
Furthermore, NSI works diligently on its refinancing requirements and improving its debt maturity. NSI extended its €225 million syndicated loan facility in Q1 2012 until 31 December 2015.
After the Q2 closing, NSI refinanced its full outstandings with Deutsche Bank. In total, €121 million of debt maturing in 2012 and 2013 has been extended until 2015 and 2016. NSI has now virtually covered its 2012 maturities. The discussion on refinancing the remaining 2% of the total Dutch debt portfolio maturing in 2012 is in progress. The arrangement covers 19% of NSI's 2013 refinancing requirements ( outstanding per 30 June 2012). Following this refinancing (after Q2 closing), the average remaining maturity of the loans improved to 2.4 years (30 June 2012: 2.1 years).
NSI issued a €25 million private placement (approx. 5% of the outstanding share capital) in Q1 2012.
NSI reduced its outstanding net debt by €95 million versus year end 2011, of which €82 million relates to Q2 2012.
The financing costs decreased slightly despite higher bank charges, which were compensated by lower interest base rates, lower hedging cost rates and a reduction in outstanding loans.
The interest coverage ratio remained stable at 2.5 on 30 June 2012.
The proposed interim dividend for Q2 2012 is €0.25 per share. Following the dividend policy, as adopted by the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, NSI offers shareholders optional dividend; shareholders can choose to receive dividend in cash, in shares, or a combination of both. NSI aims to distribute 30-50% of the total 2012 dividend in stock. On 24 August 2012, NSI will set the interim dividend and announce further details regarding the distribution of dividend.

On 14 October 2011, NSI and VNOI completed the merger of their companies. This merger has been processed in this quarterly results as follows:
The integration between NSI and VNOI has been completed during Q1 2012. The increase in direct investment result in Q2 2012 compared to Q1 2012 is partly due to a strict cost management and the effect of cost synergies from the merger starting to have an effect. Besides cost synergies, NSI is focusing on realizing the operational synergies from the merger.
As a result of its expanded office portfolio, NSI can offer an improved proposition to its tenants which leads to higher retention. For example, NSI recently agreed to move tenant Grontmij from an NSI office building in Roosendaal to a former VNOI property in Rotterdam, following organizational changes within Grontmij, while re-letting the property in Roosendaal to a new tenant. Other examples of operational synergies are the roll out of a flexible office lease concept and the virtual office planner (kantoorplanner.nl) to Belgium (officeplanner.be). The latter is a proven commercial tool in increasing the success rate of renting out vacant office space.
The total investment result, consisting of the sum of the direct and indirect investment results amounted to - €45.7 million over the first half of 2012 (HY 2011: €19 million).
NSI uses the direct investment result (rental income less operating costs, service costs not recharged, administrative costs and financing costs) as a measure for the success of its core business and for determining its dividend.
The HY 2012 direct investment result amounted to €32.6 million (HY 2011: €26.3 million). The direct investment result in Q2 2012 increased to €16.4 million compared to €16.2 million in Q1 2012.
Gross rental income increased in HY 2012 to €81.3 million compared to €51.7 million in HY 2011 as a result of the merger with VNOI. Compared to Q1 2012 gross rental income declined by 4.0% in Q2 2012, mainly due to the expiration of a number of large leases in Q1 2012 (e.g. RET in Rotterdam, municipality of Amsterdam, KPN). Gross rental income in Belgium decreased by €0.3 million in Q2 2012 compared to Q1 2012, mainly due to a one-off release of a provision (related to Tibotec) in Q1 2012. Another release of a provision (related to Tibotec) impacted operational costs in HY 2012.The retail portfolio continued its strong performance. Gross rental income in the retail portfolio increased by 1.9% in Q2 2012 compared to Q1 2012 mainly due to the reopening of the 't Loon shopping centre on 11 February 2012; the shopping centre was closed since December 2011 for partial demolition and reconstruction.
Gross rental income in Switzerland increased by 6% (to €3.8 million) compared to HY 2011. The Swiss assets that have been sold at the end of Q2 2012 (70% of Swiss portfolio) delivered annual gross rental income of €2.6 million.
The overall occupancy rate decreased slightly to 81.8% on 30 June 2012 compared to 82.2.% on 31 March 2012. The increase in vacancy is mainly caused by the Dutch office portfolio and the sale of the well-let Swiss assets. The occupancy rate of the total office portfolio decreased 0.8% from 76% to 75.2%, while the occupancy of the retail portfolio remained stable at a solid 95%.
The increase in direct investment result in Q2 2012 compared to Q1 2012 is mainly the result of a strict cost discipline and cost synergies from the merger with VNOI starting to have an effect. Operating costs, administrative costs and non-recharged service costs all decreased in Q2 2012 compared to Q1 2012. The operating costs also involved a number of one-off items (e.g. the release of a provision in Belgium related to Tibotec).

* Including exchange-rate differences of €0.2 million.
Financing costs amounted to €27.9 million in HY 2012 (HY 2011: €16.6 million). This increase is in line with the increased size of the portfolio due to the merger with VNOI. Financing costs in Q2 2012 decreased by 1.6% compared to Q1 2012 due to lower interest base rates, lower hedging costs and a reduction in outstanding loans.
The indirect investment result for the first half year of 2012 amounted to €78.3 million negative. The indirect investment result consists of both realized revaluations (sales results on investments sold) and unrealized revaluations. These unrealized revaluations concern the changes in the market value of the property portfolio (- €60.4 million) and the interest-rate hedging instruments (-€10.9 million).
The realized revaluations contain the sales result of - €0.1 million realized on the sale of the offices properties at the Lairessestraat and Herengracht in Amsterdam and the disposal of 70% of NSI's Swiss properties. The Swiss assets have been sold for €3.8 million below book value. Furthermore the net accounting result includes significant breakage costs (€ 1.9 million) on fixed interest rate CHF loans and a provision for a rental guarantee (€ 1.3 million). The book loss is partly compensated by the release of a provision for deferred tax liabilities (€1.2 million).
The value of interest hedges further decreased due to an ongoing reduction in Euro market interest curves as a result of the economic situation in the Eurozone.
NSI utilizes interest-rate hedging instruments exclusively for hedging of operational interest rate risks. There is no situation of "overhedging" nor is NSI exposed to margin calls. The value of the financial derivatives automatically reverts to zero at the end of the duration of these instruments.
The revaluation of the Dutch property portfolio in HY 2012 amounted to - €54.6 million (HY 2011: - €12.8 million), - €30.8 million in Q2 2012 and - €23.8 million in Q1 2012. These revaluations in HY 2012 were mainly caused by the decrease in value of the Dutch offices portfolio by €46.2 million. Occupancy rates remain under pressure which results in ongoing pressure on property values.
The value of the Belgian properties remained stable during the first half of 2012.
The value of the Swiss properties decreased by €5.6 million, mainly due to the reclassification into assets held for sale; as a result of this reclassification, the expected sales costs have been deducted from the value of the portfolio.

The value of the real estate investments amounted to €2,189 million on 30 June 2012 (30 June 2011: €1,357 million, 31 December 2011: €2,322 million). This is the result of the balance of purchases, disposals, revaluations and investments, but in particular of the merger with VNOI and the subsequent sale of predominantly Swiss assets.
NSI reduced its net debt by €95 million versus 31 December 2011.
The loan-to-value decreased during HY 2012 from 57.3% at the end of Q1 2012 to 56.4% at the end of Q2 2012, mainly due to the sale of 70% of the Swiss portfolio; the proceeds of this sale were used to redeem debt. NSI will remain active in reducing loan-to-value by disposing of assets that do not fit its strategy. Debts to credit institutions amounted to €1,234 million on 30 June 2012 (31 December 2011: €1,329 million).
NSI's equity decreased during the first half year of 2012 by €42.5 million to €867.1 million (31 December 2011: €909.6 million). This was the result of the balance of the HY 2012 net loss of €41 million, the equity issue of €24.3 million, the paid cash dividend payments of €25.3 million, including the full 2011 dividend of Intervest Warehouses & Offices, and the increase of the other reserves due to exchange-rate differences.
The number of outstanding shares increased from 60.3 million ultimo 2011 to 66.0 million on 30 June 2012. The net asset value, including deferred tax and the market value of the derivatives, amounted to €11.26 per share on 30 June 2012 (31 December 2011: €14.02). If the deferred tax and the value of the derivatives are excluded (the net asset value according to EPRA), the net asset value amounts to €12.38 per share (31 December 2011: €14.02).
The funding available to the company under the credit facilities committed as at 30 June 2012 amounted to €87.0 million (31 December 2011: €102.7 million). Net debts to credit institutions fell from €1,329.2 million at year-end 2011 to €1,233.7 million as at 30 June 2012. The average remaining maturity of the loans remained stable at 2.1 years and the fixed-interest part of the mortgage loans decreased from 91.3% at year-end 2011 to 90.6% as at 30 June 2012. Following the refinancing with Deutsche Bank (after Q2 closing), the average remaining maturity of the loans improved to 2.4 years. The average interest rate on the loans and interestrate hedging instruments increased from 4.2% to 4.4%, including margin, on 30 June 2012. The interest-rate coverage ratio improved to 2.5 on 30 June 2012 (31 December 2011: 2.4).
The basic principle of the company's dividend policy is to distribute almost the entire direct investment result to shareholders as dividend. For the first half year of 2012 the interim dividend will be €0.51 per share of which a Q1 2012 interim dividend of €0.26 has already been distributed. The Q2 2012 interim dividend will therefore amount to €0.25 per share.
NSI offers shareholders the option to receive dividend in cash, in shares, or a combination of both. On 24 August 2012, NSI will set the interim dividend and announce further details regarding the distribution of dividend.
The value of the real estate portfolio decreased by €133.0 million during the first half of 2012, from €2,321.8 million at year-end 2011 to €2,188.8 million. This decrease is the result of the sale of the major part of the Swiss portfolio for €82.1 million, other sales of €8.9 million, acquisitions of €8.0 million, revaluations of - €60.4 million, investments of €9.4 million and exchange-rate differences of €1.0 million.
NSI sold its Swiss office property "Silvergate" in Thalwill and its retail property "Perolles-centre" in Fribourg in the last week of Q2 2012 for CHF 94.5 million. These two properties represent approximately 70% of NSI's Swiss portfolio. It is NSI's intention to sell the remaining two properties in the Swiss portfolio during the remaining half of 2012.
In the Netherlands NSI sold two smaller office properties located in Amsterdam in separate transactions totalling €4.9 million. In Belgium, an industrial property located in St. Niklaas was sold for €4.0 million whilst another industrial property located in Oevel was purchased for €8.0 million.

As at 30 June 2012 the portfolio consisted of 94 residential units and 271 commercial properties, spread across:
The occupancy in the entire portfolio as at 30 June 2012 amounted to 81.8% (31 March 2012: 82.2%). Occupancy levels per sector were: 75.2% in offices, 88.5% in industrial premises and 95.1% in retail. Per country this was 80.2% in the Netherlands, 95.4% in Switzerland and 85.6 % in Belgium.
The vacancy rate in the retail portfolio remained at friction level (5%), with an occupancy rate of (95%).
The occupancy rate in the Dutch office portfolio decreased to 71.7% (Q1 2012: 73.4%). Part of the vacancy level of 28.3% at 30 June 2012 can be explained as strategic vacancy; assets that are currently being redeveloped and therefore during the construction process temporarily not available for leasing, but are included in the vacancy number.
The occupancy rate of the total office portfolio decreased 0.8% to 75.2% (Q1 2012 : 76%)
As indicated previously, an above average amount of office leases (23%) expires in 2012, which is reflected in the occupancy rates and which will also have an effect in the second half of the year.
The occupancy rate in the logistics portfolio remained stable at 88%.
Contractual rental income from the portfolio amounted to €161.7 million as at 30 June 2012.

This report on the first half of 2012 was approved by the Management Board and Supervisory Board on 10 August 2012.
The compilation of this interim report in accordance with IFRS requires that the Management Board forms opinions, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the accounting principles and the reported figures for assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and the related assumptions are based on experience and various other factors that are considered appropriate. Actual results from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are continually assessed. Revisions to estimates are wholly included in the period in which the revision is made, if the effect has only applies to that period.

NSI limits its interest-rate risk by swapping the majority of the variable interest it pays on its loans into a fixed interest rate, by means of contracts with fixed interest rates varying from 1.95% to 4.613% and with maturity dates between 2013 and 2022. The market value of the financial derivatives amounted to - €73,3 million as at 30 June 2012.

Deferred tax liabilities are recognized at nominal value for the corporate income tax payable in future periods that arise because of the differences between market value and value for tax purposes of the properties in Switzerland.
The largest items recognized under the other payables and accrued liabilities concern prepaid rent of €15.8 million, payable operational costs of €9.8 million and payable interest of €5.8 million.
The Supervisory Board and the Management Board state that, as far as they are aware:

H.W. Breukink G.L.B. de Greef W.M. Steenstra Toussaint
The Netherlands Authority for the Financial Markets granted a licence to NSI N.V. on 13 July 2006. A copy of this license can be obtained at the company's office as well as via its website: www.nsi.nl
The members of NSI's Supervisory Board and Management Board have no personal interests in any of the investments made by NSI. Furthermore, they never had any such interest at any time during the period under review. The company is not aware of any property transactions during the period under review with any people or organisations that could be considered to have a direct relationship with the company.
NSI had one major investor, Stichting Prioriteit NSI, holder of all 5,000 preference shares. The Stichting Prioriteit NSI was dissolved on 30 June 2012. The preference shares were changed into ordinary shares that were acquired by the company. In accordance with the Financial Supervision Act, the Netherlands Authority for the Financial Markets received a notification of a shareholder with an interest of more than 5% in the company. According to the most recent notification, this interest was as follows: Habas Investments (1960) Ltd. And it subsidiaries (20.4%). The date of the notification mentioned above was 19 June 2012.
No significant events that NSI is required to disclose have occurred after the balance sheet date.
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial information of NSI N.V. in Hoofddorp (statutory seat Hoorn), which comprises the consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2012, the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for the period of 6 months ended 30 June 2012, and the notes. Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of this consolidated interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34, 'Interim Financial Reporting' as adopted by the European Union. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with Dutch law including standard 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity". A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial information as at 30 June 2012 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34, 'Interim Financial Reporting', as adopted by the European Union.
