Management of Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield N.V. ("URW NV" or "the Company") hereby presents its management board report and the unaudited consolidated financial statements of URW NV for the period ending December 31, 2023.
URW NV is a public limited liability company under the laws of The Netherlands. The Company was incorporated as Unibail-Rodamco B.V., a private company with limited liability on February 14, 2018, and converted its legal form to a public limited liability company on March 22, 2018. On the same date, the Company changed its name to WFD Unibail-Rodamco N.V. At the Annual General Meeting held on June 9, 2020, the shareholders adopted the name change to Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield N.V..
The Company and its subsidiaries' (together referred to as "the Group") main business objectives are to invest in assets, primarily through the direct or indirect acquisition of real estate and to enter into cash pooling arrangements with, to provide financing to and to provide guarantees for the benefit of Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield SE ("URW SE") and other affiliated bodies of the Company. Together with URW SE, the Group forms Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield ("URW Group").
The Group's consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2023, were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as applicable in the European Union as at such date.
The Group also prepares financial information for internal management purposes in a proportionate format, in which the joint-controlled entities are accounted for on a proportionate basis, instead of being accounted for using the equity method under IFRS. The business review and results are presented based on the financial information on a proportionate basis unless otherwise indicated, with no impact on the net results. The proportionate part of the underlying amount is based on the percentage of ownership in the respective companies jointly controlled, associates are accounted for at the equity value.
Due to inherent uncertainties associated with estimates, the Group reviews those estimates based on regularly updated information. Actual results might eventually differ from estimates made at the date of the preparation of the condensed financial statements.


The condensed organisation chart as at December 31, 2023, is as follows:
The principal changes in the scope of consolidation since December 31, 2022, are:
The above assets are not longer accounted for in the consolidated financial overviews. Some of them were held with Joint Venture partners and some directly. As a result the number of entities included in the consolidation are changed.
URW NV operates in two regions, the US and The Netherlands and in 2 segments, shopping centres and offices. Since activities in The Netherlands are minor compared to the US, they are reported under other region.
Over the period, the economic situation continued to be impacted by high inflation and further increase in interest rates by Central Banks but a resilient employment market. In this context, URW NV's assets showed strong activity which goes beyond the post-COVID recovery. Sales and footfall data in the US relate to Flagship assets as these are the core of URW NV's activities in the US and as Regional assets are being streamlined.
The Group uses 2019 in some cases as a comparable year to 2023, URW NV is of the opinion that this is the last full year of business without many disruptions.
In the US, 2023 footfall4 increased compared to 2022, up +3.1%, exceeding 2019 levels.
1 The total scope of consolidation consist of more than 300 entities.
2 In the US excluding the centres for which no comparable data of the previous year is available. In addition, footfall has been restated from the disposals which occurred during the period.
3 Tenant sales for all US centres in operation, including extensions of existing assets, but excluding deliveries of new
brownfield projects, newly acquired assets and assets under heavy refurbishmen and excludes Auto and Department Stores in the US. In addition, sales have been restated from the disposals which occurred during the period.
4 US Flagships only. US Regionals at -0.9%.

In the US, 2023 tenant sales5 increased by +3.0%, or +4.8% excluding Luxury. Overall, 2023 sales came to +19.2% above 2019 levels6 .
This performance compares with an average core inflation of 4.8% in 2023 and national sales index of +4.0%7 .
The performances in 2023 were driven by the experiential sectors with +26.7%7 for Entertainment, +13.5% for F&B, +13.4% for Fitness and +8.9% for Health & Beauty, while Fashion was stable (+0.2%), but +16.8% above 2019. Luxury saw a -6.5% decline but remained significantly (+62.3%) above 2019 levels.
The table below summarises the US tenant sales growth during 2023:
| Region | Footfall (%) | Tenant Sales (%) | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 2023 | National Sales | ||
| vs. 2022 | vs. 2022 | Index8 | ||
| US Flagships | +3.1% | +3.0% | +4.0% |
As at February 16, 2024, 98% of invoiced 2023 rents and service charges10 in the US were collected.
Overall rent collection by quarter in 2023 is shown below11:
| Rent collection (%) | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Region | Q1-2023 | Q2-2023 | Q3-2023 | Q4-2023 | 2023 |
| US | 98% | 98% | 98% | 97% | 98% |
In 2023, 758 leases were signed on standing assets, representing 2,582,895 sq. ft. and \$175.7 Mn of MGR up compared to \$137.3 Mn of MGR signed in 202212 (up +28%) on 671 leases (up +13%), representing 2,319,670 sq. ft. (up +11%), illustrating the strong dynamic of the activity. As market conditions improved, the number of long-term deals signed also increased from 343 to 489 (up +43%), representing 65% of 2023 deals, compared to 51% in 2022. MGR signed on leases above 3 years increased by +47% and amounted to 72% vs. 63% in 2022.
The overall uplift on relettings and renewals was +16.8% for the US Shopping Centres (+8.1%) and +20.6% for Flagships13 . In 2023, the Group focused on long-term lettings and relettings, while relying on short-term deals in a more selective and limited way mainly on renewals. Deals longer than 36 months had an MGR uplift of +32.7%, including +36.2% for the US Flagships, while for leases between 12 and 36 months, MGR uplifts were slightly negative (-3.4% compared to -19.8% in 2022). The strong uplift signed on long-term deals compensated for the downlift on short-term deals signed during the Covid-19 pandemic. This allowed the Group to increase the revenues secured through MGR and reduce the portion of SBR attached to the short-term leases previously in place.
In total, the Shopping Centres SBR increased from \$20.5 Mn in 2019 (3.1% of NRI) to \$81.4 Mn in 2022 (13.8% of NRI) and amounted to \$54.0 Mn in 2023 (10.3% of NRI). The decrease of -\$27.4 Mn in 2023 compared to last year and -\$16.6 Mn on a like-for-like basis, is mainly due to high SBR settlement in 2022 based on 2021 sales and conversion of SBR to MGR.
5 US Flagships only. US Regionals and US CBD asset (Westfield World Trade Center) at +3.0%.
6 US Flagships only. US Regionals and US CBD asset at +4.1%.
7 On a same scope. +90.2% including new openings.
8 Based on latest national indices available (year-on-year evolution) as at November 2023: US: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
9 MGR + CAM in the US, excluding 2023 settlement.
10 MGR + CAM in the US.
11 Based on cash collection as at February 16, 2024 and assets at 100%.
12 Restated for disposed assets.
13 Excluding CBD centres.

The tenant mix continued to evolve with the introduction of new retailers (Gorjana at Westfield Old Orchard, Westfield UTC and Westfield Valley Fair, Swatch at Westfield UTC, Faherty at Westfield UTC, The North Face and Jo Malone London at Westfield Galleria at Roseville) and DNVBs (Vuori at Westfield Century City, Rothy's at Westfield Galleria at Roseville and Alo at Westfield Topanga).
The Luxury sector has also seen strong progress with a number of important openings such as Celine and Dior at Westfield Topanga, Chanel Beauty at Westfield Century City, Chloé, Valentino and Fendi at Westfield Valley Fair as well as Saint Laurent Paris at Westfield UTC and Westfield Valley Fair.
Retail Media & other income revenue in 2023 amounted to \$62.4 Mn, a decrease of -\$1.2 Mn (-1.9%) compared to 2022, impacted by disposals. On a like-for-like basis, it increased by +\$6.2 Mn, i.e. +12.2%.
Retail Media continued to perform strongly. In 2023, a number of product launches were organised by prime brands in the automotive and luxury sectors, including BMW and Jaeger LeCoultre at Westfield Century City.
URW also launched creative campaigns with Disney, Emirates, Dior, Cartier, Chanel, Lucid and L'Oréal.
The total net change in NRI for URW NV amounted to -\$63.4 Mn and breaks down as follows:
US shopping centre NRI has been impacted by 2022 and 2023 disposals and foreclosure for -\$74.7 Mn (Westfield Santa Anita, The Village at Topanga, Westfield Trumbull, Westfield South Shore, Westfield North County, Westfield Brandon, Westfield Mission Valley, Westfield Valencia Town Center and San Francisco Centre and Emporium (offices included)).
Overall, US like-for-like shopping centre NRI increased by +\$8.7 Mn i.e. +1.9% mainly driven by Flagship assets. Like-for-like NRI growth for Flagship assets was +\$22.2 Mn i.e. +6.2% driven by net leasing revenue14 of +5.9%, increase in variable income and recovered property taxes15, partly offset by lower SBR and negative impact of doubtful debtors (release in 2022 of moratorium provision booked in 2021). Like-for-like NRI performance for Regionals was -12.3% and -5.2% for CBD assets.
As at December 31, 2023, the EPRA vacancy was 8.4% (\$86.9 Mn), down by -190 bps from December 31, 2022. The decrease in vacancy was driven by the proactive leasing approach of the Group and change in scope16. The vacancy decreased by -90 bps to 7.3% in the Flagships, below its pre-Covid level of 2019 (7.7%). It decreased by - 160 bps to 10.1% in the Regionals, along with the vacancy of the CBD assets that decreased by -290 bps to 20.1%.
Occupancy on a GLA17 basis was 93.5% as at December 31, 2023.
The OCR on a rolling 12 month basis stood at 10.7% as at December 31, 2023, compared to 10.5%18 as at December 31, 2022 and 11.8% as at December 31, 2019, reflecting a combination of rental uplifts and strong sales performance. OCR for Flagships stood at 11.4% as at December 31, 2023, below 2019 level of 11.7%.

(1) Non-recurring activities include valuation movements, disposals, mark-to-market and termination costs of financial instruments, bond tender premiums,
amortisation of fair value of assets and liabilities recorded for the purpose of purchase price allocation, as well as costs directly incurred during a business combination and other non-recurring items.
URW NV reported negative net operating results of -€234.1 Mn (2022: -€407.4 Mn) for the period ended December 31, 2023. The recurring net operating result decreased to €419.8 Mn (2022: €481.2 Mn) mainly due to the disposal or foreclosure of properties in the US in 2023 (Westfield North County, Westfield Brandon; Westfield Mission Valley Shopping Centres, Westfield Valencia Town Center and San Francisco Centre and Emporium (offices included)). The negative net operating result of the non-recurring activities for the period ending December 31, 2023, decreased from -€888.6 Mn to -€653.9 Mn, mainly due to the decrease of -€213.7 Mn in the negative valuation movement on assets compared to December 31, 2022.
The net result for the year ended December 31, 2023 is -€692.4 Mn (2022: -€233.7 Mn) of which -€609.6 Mn (2022: -€152.2 Mn) attributable to the shareholders of URW NV with a net result per share (owners of URW NV shares) for the period of -€2.63 (2022: -€0.66).
Non-recurring financing result decreased by -€569.0 Mn to -€45.2 Mn (2022: €523.8 Mn). The decrease is predominantly caused by the unwinding of macro SWAP's, this resulted in a decrease of -€450.6 Mn to €14.7 Mn (2022: €465.3 Mn) in the fair value of derivatives. Non-recurring financing result is further affected by a decrease in fair value adjustment of preference shares from €64.2 Mn in 2022 to €9.8 Mn for the period ended December 31, 2023, as well as an impairment on Rouse of -€61.7 Mn (2022: -€7.5 Mn) for the year ended December 31, 2023.

The recurring net result for the period decreased by -€ 149.5 Mn from €118.2 Mn as at December 31, 2022, to -€31.3 Mn for the period ended December 31, 2023. The decrease in the net recurring result for the period ended December 31, 2022 can mainly be attributed to the increase in the interest rate in 2023, this resulted in a further decrease of -€86.4 Mn in financing result from -€361.9 Mn in 2022 to -€448.3 Mn for the year ended December 31, 2023. The contribution of companies accounted for using the equity method decrease by -€41.4 Mn to €216.8 Mn (2022: €258.2 Mn) for the year ended December 31, 2023, mainly due to the disposals that took place in 2023.
URW NV has cross guarantees with URW SE and the liquidity needs are covered by the available undrawn credit lines at URW Group level. As at December 31, 2023, the URW Group had €13.6 Bn of cash on hand and undrawn credit lines (€13.7 Bn on a proportionate basis) including €5.5 Bn of cash on hand (€5.6 Bn on a proportionate basis).
In 2023, URW NV invested €166.2 Mn in capital expenditures in investment properties, compared to €110.3 Mn in 2022.
The total investments breakdown(1) is as follows:
| (€Mn) | FY-2023 | FY-2022 |
|---|---|---|
| Shopping Centres | 166.2 | 106.5 |
| Offices | - | 3.8 |
| Total capital expenditures | 166.2 | 110.3 |
(1) The figures are disclosed on proportionate basis.
On February 1, 2023, the Group completed the sale of the Westfield North County ground lease located in Escondido, California, to Bridge Group Investments and Steerpoint Capital, transferring ownership and management of the asset. The sale price of \$57 Mn (at 100%, URW share 55%) for the asset, which has 30 years left on its ground lease, reflects the property's book value as at December 31, 2022.
On May 25, 2023, URW disposed of Westfield Brandon Shopping Centre in the US. The sale price of \$220 Mn (URW share 100%) reflects a 10.0% net initial yield and a 4.4% discount to the latest unaffected appraisal.
On July 21, 2023, the Group completed the sale of Westfield Mission Valley Shopping Centres in San Diego, California, for a total amount of \$290 Mn (at 100%, URW share 42%), including the sale of Westfield Mission Valley "East" to Lowe Enterprises and Real Capital Solutions, and Westfield Mission Valley "West" to Sunbelt Investment Holdings Inc. The transaction value reflects a combined initial yield of 8.5% on the in-place net operating income ("NOI") and a 12% discount to the last unaffected appraisal.
On September 4, 2023, the Group completed the sale of Westfield Valencia Town Center, in Santa Clarita, California, to Centennial Real Estate at a total value of \$199 Mn (at 100%, URW share 50%), above the \$195 Mn debt amount (at 100%, URW share 50%) on the asset. The transaction value reflects less than 3% discount to its last unaffected appraisal.
On October 26, 2023, San Francisco Centre and Emporium (offices included) was put on foreclosure. The Group lost control of the asset (asset value of \$301 Mn as at June 30, 2023) and the companies holding it were thus deconsolidated together with the debt allocated to it (\$340 Mn).

In H2-2023, URW signed a Sale, Purchase and Escrow Agreement with a \$30 Mn non-refundable cash deposit for the disposal of Westfield Oakridge. The transaction is expected to be completed in Q2-2024.
98% of the value of URW NV's portfolio was appraised by independent appraisers as at December 31, 2023. Unless otherwise indicated, the data presented in the property portfolio are on a proportionate basis as at December 31, 2023, and comparisons are with values as at December 31, 2022.

Figures may not add up due to rounding.
(a) The sum of the Gross Marked Value ("GMV") for the assets fully consolidated, the ownership at share of the GMV of assets jointly controlled accounted for using the equity method and the equity values for assets not controlled by URW. Valuation excluding estimated transfer taxes represents the GMV minus transfer taxes and transaction costs which are estimated after taking into account the likely disposal scenario: sale of the asset or of the company that owns it.
(b) Annualised contracted rent (including indexation) and other incomes for the next 12 months, net of operating expenses, divided by the asset value net of estimated transfer taxes and transaction costs. Shopping centres under development or not controlled by URW, the Westfield trademark are not included in the calculation of NIY.
(c) Annualised contracted rent (including indexation) and other incomes for the next 12 months, net of operating expenses + the ERV of vacant space, divided by the asset value net of estimated transfer taxes and transaction costs. Shopping centres under development or not controlled by URW and the Westfield trademark activities are not included in the calculation of Potential Yield.
(d) The Westfield trademark is included in the valuation of the US Flagships.
URW NV complies with the IFRS 13 fair value measurement and the position paper19 on IFRS 13 established by EPRA, the representative body of the publicly listed real estate industry in Europe.
Considering the limited public data available, the complexity of real estate asset valuations, as well as the fact that appraisers use the non-public rent rolls of the Group's assets in their valuations, URW believes it is appropriate to classify its assets under Level 3. In addition, unobservable inputs, including appraisers' assumptions on growth rates and ECR, are used by appraisers to determine the fair value of URW's assets.
In addition to the disclosures provided above, the following tables provide quantitative data in order to assess the fair valuation of the Group's assets.
19 EPRA Position Paper on IFRS 13 - Fair value measurement and illustrative disclosures, February 2013.
All shopping centres are valued using the discounted cash flow and / or yield methodologies using compound annual growth rates as determined by the appraisers.

Given the statutory results and cumulated negative retained earnings of URW NV in 2023 as well as in 2022, URW NV had no obligation to pay a dividend neither in 2024 for the fiscal year 2023, nor in 2023 for the fiscal year 2022, under the FII regime and other REIT regimes it benefits from.
URW Group however, will propose to the URW SE annual general meeting ("AGM" 20) a cash distribution of €2.50/share to be paid on May 16, 2024. This cash distribution will be made out of premium and will qualify as an equity repayment21 for French tax purposes (article 112, 1 of the French tax code).
This proposal is based on 2023 URW Group achievements, the improved visibility of the URW Group's operating performance, the delivery of its main committed projects in 2024, the limited forecasted Capex beyond 2024, its credit metrics and its liquidity position.
S&P and Moody's confirmed the proposed cash distribution would have no impact on the current rating of the URW Group.
URW NV owns a portfolio of prime commercial properties, located in some of the largest and most prosperous cities across the United States.
URW NV's operations are focused on Flagship destinations ("Flagships") in the wealthiest and most attractive catchment areas in the United States.
URW NV's strategy is to vertically integrate the entire chain of value creation in real estate. The combination of its four activities of redevelopment, renovation, investment and management, provides URW NV with unique market knowledge and expertise. This knowledge and expertise assist URW NV in dealing with markets that are cyclical in nature and its strategy is designed to allow the Group to continue its investment programs even during economic downturns.
Finally, URW NV is, by nature, a long-term player committed to sustainable redevelopment and social responsibility across all of its activities. Whether it be architecture, city planning, design, energy efficiency, or social responsibility, the URW Group is recognized as a leader in the industry.
In October 2023, the URW Group announced a comprehensive evolution of its Better Places roadmap, including new SBTi-approved net-zero targets in terms of carbon emissions reduction and reinforcing its environmental performance objectives, with the aim to develop and operate places that provide sustainable experiences and contribute to thriving communities. These targets are expected to be delivered with limited additional Capex requirements. The URW Group also expects to generate new revenues through PV panels and EV chargers.
2023 marks another exceptional year in terms of sustainability performance for the URW Group. The URW Group has achieved a -43% reduction in carbon emission from Scopes 1, 2 & 3 and reduced its energy intensity by -30% since 201522 .
In addition, the URW Group rolled out its innovative Sustainable Retail Index built in cooperation with Good on You. More than 2,500 stores were assessed, and 800 brands rated during the roll-out in the Fashion sector23 . 82% of the URW Group's fashion sector eligible revenues are already engaged in sustainability initiatives with 52% rated "Leader", "Advanced" or "Active". Health & Beauty retailers will be rated in 2024.

Figures may not add up due to rounding.

The activity of the Group is not significantly affected by seasonality.
On February 1, 2023, the Group completed the sale of the Westfield North County ground lease located in Escondido, California, to Bridge Group Investments and Steerpoint Capital, transferring ownership and management of the asset. The sale price of \$57 Mn (at 100%, URW share 55%) for the asset, which has 30 years left on its ground lease, reflects the property's book value as at December 31, 2022.
On May 25, 2023, URW disposed Westfield of Brandon Shopping Centre in the US. The sale price of \$220 Mn (URW share 100%) reflects a 10.0% net initial yield and a 4.4% discount to the latest unaffected appraisal.
On July 21, 2023, the Group completed the sale of Westfield Mission Valley Shopping Centres in San Diego, California, for a total amount of \$290 Mn (at 100%, URW share 42%), including the sale of Westfield Mission Valley "East" to Lowe Enterprises and Real Capital Solutions, and Westfield Mission Valley "West" to Sunbelt Investment Holdings Inc. The transaction value reflects a combined initial yield of 8.5% on the in-place net operating income ("NOI") and a 12% discount to the last unaffected appraisal.
On September 4, 2023, the Group completed the sale of Westfield Valencia Town Center, in Santa Clarita, California, to Centennial Real Estate at a total value of \$199 Mn (at 100%, URW share 50%), above the \$195 Mn debt amount (at 100%, URW share 50%) on the asset. The transaction value reflects less than 3% discount to its last unaffected appraisal.
In H2-2023, URW signed a Sale, Purchase and Escrow Agreement with a \$30 Mn non-refundable cash deposit for the disposal of Westfield Oakridge. The transaction is expected to be completed in Q2-2024.
On October 26, 2023, San Francisco Centre and Emporium (offices included) was put on foreclosure. The Group lost control of the asset (asset value of \$301 Mn as at June 30, 2023) and the companies holding it were thus deconsolidated together with the debt allocated to it (\$340 Mn).
€500 Mn of the loan with an original nominal value of €1,250 Mn, of which already €750 Mn has been converted earlier, has been converted into a capital security with a 99-year maturity as per December 31, 2023. The remaining part of the loan is €55.4 Mn.
The converted part qualifies as equity with the exception of the amount due on this instrument, which is initially measured at fair value at balance sheet date (€0.2 Mn as at December 31, 2023) and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The amendment fee paid to URW SE of €12.5 Mn has been recorded in 2023 under financial expenses.
Following the request filed by Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield Group (URW Group) with Euronext as announced on February 9, 2023, the URW Group has obtained the approval of the Euronext Listing Board on February 28, 2023 to change its market of reference from Euronext Amsterdam to Euronext Paris and delist the URW Group stapled shares from Euronext Amsterdam, while maintaining their listing on Euronext Paris.
Pursuant to the timing validated by Euronext:
On June 20, 2023, the URW Group launched an any-and-all par-for-par Exchange Offer on its €1.25 Bn hybrid Perp-NC23 notes ("Old Notes") into a combination of (i) new Euro denominated Perp-NC28 hybrid notes with a coupon of 7.25% ("New Notes") and (ii) a cash amount when applicable. The term and conditions of the New Notes provide the issuer with a call option in 2028.
The Exchange Offer was completed on June 26, 202324 corresponding to:

In accordance with the regulation of the European Community (EC) no. 1606/2002 of July 19, 2002, on the application of international accounting standards, URW NV has prepared its consolidated financial results for the financial year ending December 31, 2023 under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted in the European Union and applicable at this date.
These can be consulted on the website:
http://ec.europa.eu/finance/company-reporting/ifrs-financialstatements/index\_en.htm.
The consolidated financial results have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for investment properties, non-listed equity investment, derivative financial instruments and commitment to non-controlling interests which have been measured at fair value.
The accounting principles and methods used are the same as those applied for the preparation of the annual consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2022, except for the application of the new obligatory standards and interpretations.
These standards, amendments and interpretations do not have a significant impact on URW NV's accounts as at December 31, 2023.
URW NV applied the exemption for the Amendments to IAS 12 Income Taxes: International Tax Reform – Pillar 2 Model Rules.
Pillar 2 is a set of rules entering into force in 2024 designed to ensure large multinational enterprises pay a minimum level of tax (15%) on the income arising in each jurisdiction where they operate. The new legislation provides for a general exemption for REITs subject to certain technicalities. Whereas some legislation clarifications are still expected, the Group reasonably expects the minimum global tax not to have a significant impact on both its REIT and non-REIT activities.
Certain amounts recorded in the consolidated financial results reflect estimates and assumptions made by management in the current uncertain context regarding inflation, interest rates and energy cost from geopolitical and economic environment and difficulties in assessing their impacts and future prospects. In this context, management has taken into account these uncertainties on the basis of reliable information available at the date of the preparation of the consolidated financial results.
Due to inherent uncertainties associated with estimates, the Group reviews those estimates based on regularly updated information. Actual results might eventually differ from estimates made at the date of the preparation of the consolidated financial results.
No significant changes took place in URW NV's going concern conclusion for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to the year ended December 31, 2022.

For the year ended December 31, 2023 lease incentives of €69.7 Mn (2022: €71.7 Mn) is included in trade receivables from activity in the consolidated statement of financial position.
Considering the limited public data available, the complexity of real estate asset valuations, as well as the fact that appraisers use in their valuations the non-public rent rolls of the Group's assets, the Group believes it appropriate to classify its assets under Level 3 as per IFRS 13. In addition, unobservable inputs, including appraisers' assumptions on growth rates and exit yields, are used by appraisers to determine the fair values of the Group's assets.
As at December 31, 2023, 98% of URW NV's portfolio was appraised by independent appraisers. The fair value of the properties in the United States are based on the valuations performed by Cushman & Wakefield and Kroll and in The Netherlands by Jones Lang LaSalle.
The below overviews including most significant input and output parameters of the external valuations of the investment properties and the sensitivity overviews of the fair value of investment property are presented based on a proportional basis for the fully consolidated investment property as well as the investment property included in the joint ventures accounted using the equity method. The total value of investment property represents €9,015.6 Mn, this consists of the total €4,217.4 Mn presented investment property in the consolidated position excluding

investment property under construction carried at cost and €4,798.2 Mn of the proportioned share of the investment property presented in the joint venture and associates. The Dutch assets are not significant and therefore the below table shows only the US assets.
All shopping centres are valued using the discounted cash flow and / or yield methodologies using compound annual growth rates as determined by the appraisers.

Based on an asset value excluding estimated transfer taxes and transaction costs, the Shopping Centre division's Net Initial Yield is 4.9% as at December 31, 2023 (December 31, 2022: 4.6%).
A change of +25 basis points in Net Initial Yield, the main output of the appraisal models, would result in a downward adjustment of -€450 Mn (or -4.9%) (December 31, 2022: -€545 Mn (or -5.1%)) of the Shopping Centre portfolio value (excluding assets under development and the trademark), including transfer taxes.
A change of +25 bps in discount rate would have a negative impact of -€179 Mn (or -1.9%) (December 31, 2022: -€209 Mn (or -2.0%)) on the Shopping Centre portfolio value (excluding assets under development and the trademark), including transfer taxes.

A change of +10 bps in exit capitalization rate would have a negative impact of -€109 Mn (or -1.2%) (December 31, 2022: -€139 Mn (or -1.3%)) on the Shopping Centre portfolio value (excluding assets under development and the trademark), including transfer taxes.
A decrease of -5% in appraisers' estimated rental value assumptions for the leases to be signed during the model period would have a negative impact of -€247 Mn or (-2.7%) (December 31, 2022: -€299 Mn (or -2.8%)) on the Shopping Centre portfolio value (excluding assets under development and the trademark), including transfer taxes.

Intangible assets as at December 31, 2023, relate primarily to the trademark acquired as at June 7, 2018, the impairment test of the trademark performed was based on an independent external appraisal and a reversal of impairment of €44.2 Mn was recognised as at December 31, 2023.
The Relief from Royalty method is used to value the trademark, the recoverable amount at December 31, 2023 is €241.9 Mn. The assumptions are based on macro-economic trends, industry standard ratios, historical and business plan figures.
The reversal of impairment is mainly caused by an increase of the incremental growth rate expected on the US assets estimated by the external appraisers to 2.42% (December 31, 2022: 1.8%), the increase on the incremental growth rate is due to the exit of San Francisco Centre from the scope of URW NV. The reversal of impairment is partially set off by an increase in the discount rate to 9.75% (December 31, 2022: 9.25%).
The main assumptions used to test the Trademark for impairment are the discount rate which is 9.75% (December 31, 2022: 9.25%) and long term growth rate which is 1.8% (December 31, 2022: 1.78%) based on US parameters.
A change of +25 basis points on the discount rate of the trademark as determined at December 31, 2023, would lead to an impairment of -€16.8 Mn (-\$18.6 Mn) on the intangible assets.
A change of -10 basis points in the incremental growth rate of the trademark as determined at December 31, 2023, would lead to an impairment of -€14.1 Mn (-\$15.6 Mn) on the intangible assets.
