Summary
During the first half of 2015 VGP continued to perform strongly with development and leasing activities reaching record levels.
Germany confirmed its role as the leading growth market of the Group during the first half. More than 50% of the current developments under construction are located in Germany.
1 The net profit as at 30 June 2014 included the estimated € 13.4 million profit on the sale of the associates' portfolio (VGP CZ I & IV and II). The sale of these portfolios was completed in October 2014.
In other markets, such as Slovakia, Czech Republic, Estonia and Romania development and leasing activities were also buoyant with Czech Republic clearly remaining the second market for VGP with a share of 25% of the current developments under construction.
During the first half of 2015 VGP's activities can be summarised as follows:
- The operating activities resulted in a net profit of € 32.2 million (€ 1.73 per share) for the period ended 30 June 2015 compared to a net profit of € 43.4 million (€ 2.33 per share) and € 30.0 million (on a like for like basis1 ) respectively as at 30 June 2014.
- The increase in demand of lettable area resulted in the signing of new lease contracts in excess of € 11.3 million in total of which € 10.5 million related to new leases and € 0.9 million related to replacement leases.
- The Group's property portfolio reached an occupancy rate of 94.8% at the end of June 2015 compared to 94.0% as at 31 December 2014.
- The investment property portfolio has now already grown to 25 completed buildings representing 365,971 m² of lettable area with another 19 buildings under construction representing 322,014 m² of lettable area.
- At the end of June 2015 the land bank includes 954,000 m² of new committed development land expected to be acquired during the second half of 2015. New land plots are being targeted and are due to be secured during the second half of 2015 in order to continue to support the development pipeline.
- The net valuation of the property portfolio as at 30 June 2015 showed a net valuation gain of € 48.1 million against a net valuation gain of € 40.9 million per 30 June 2014.
- During the first half of 2015 VGP established itself in Spain and it is expected that the first investments in this new market will occur during the second half of the year. Also in other markets than Germany and the Czech Republic, VGP was successful to expand further. During the month of August 2015 a new park close to Budapest was started with a first building which is fully prelet to a Blue Chip company under a 12 year lease agreement. Finally a further 540,000 m² land plot close to Bratislava was secured to establish a second VGP Park in Slovakia.
- In order to mitigate its future interest rate risk the Group concluded 2 new interest rate swaps, each for a notional amount of € 75 million and 5 year term. These 2 interest rate swaps have a future start date of July 2017 and December 2018 and will run until July 2022 and December 2023 respectively. The average interest rate which has been fixed is 0.84% p.a.
- In order to strengthen its consolidated equity base and support its further growth, VGP NV issued subordinated perpetual securities in July 2015 for an aggregate amount of € 20 million which were fully underwritten by the reference shareholders of the company i.e. VM Invest NV and Little Rock SA.
1 The net profit as at 30 June 2014 included the estimated € 13.4 million profit on the sale of the associates' portfolio (VGP CZ I & IV and II). The sale of these portfolios was completed in October 2014.
Gross rental income up 71.6% to € 7.0 million
The gross rental income reflects the full impact of the income generating assets delivered during 2015. The gross rental income for the period ending 30 June 2015 increased by 71.6% to 7.0 million for the period ending 30 June 2015 compared to € 4.1 million for the period ending 30 June 2014.
Committed annualised rent income increases to € 33.1 million
Supported by the continued increase in demand for lettable space in almost all of its markets VGP signed 25 new leases during the first half year. These contracts represent in total more than € 11.3 million annualised rental income of which € 10.5 million relate to new leases and € 0.9 million relate to replacement leases.
The annualised committed leases therefore increased to € 33.1 million as at the end of June 2015 (compared to € 22.6 million as at 31 December 2014).
The committed annualised rent income represents the annualised rent income generated or to be generated by executed lease – and future lease agreements.
Germany was the main driver of the increases in committed leases with € 5.0 million of new leases signed during the first half year. The other countries also performed very well with new leases being signed in the Czech Republic + € 2.2 million, Slovakia + € 1.9 million, Hungary + € 1.5 million, Romania + € 0.6 million and finally € 0.1 million in Estonia.
The signed committed lease agreements represent a total of 614,477 m² of lettable area with the weighted average term of the committed leases standing at 7.9 years at the end of June 2015 compared to 7.8 years as at 31 December 2014.
Property and facility management income reaches € 1.3 million
The property and facility management income reached € 1.3 million for the period compared to € 1.4 million for the period ending June 2014.
The property and facility management is expected to start growing again in the near future as more and more buildings are being completed and delivered to tenants.
Net valuation gain on the property portfolio reaches € 48.1 million
As at 30 June 2015 the net valuation gain on the property portfolio reaches € 48.1 million against a net valuation gain of € 40.9 million per 30 June 2014.
The trend of improving yields continued during the first half of 2015. As a result the total property portfolio, excluding development land, is being valued by the valuation expert at 30 June 2015 based on an average market rate of 7.42% (compared to 7.81% as at 31 December 2014) applied to the contractual rents increased by the estimated rental value on unlet space.
The (re)valuation of the portfolio was based on the appraisal report of Jones Lang LaSalle.
Net financial expenses reach € 2.5 million
For the period ending 30 June 2015, the financial income included € 2.7 million of unrealised gains on interest rate derivatives. This unrealised gain was mainly driven by 2 interest rate transactions concluded during the first half year i.e. in order to mitigate its future interest rate risk the Group concluded 2 new interest rate swaps, each for a notional amount of € 75 million. These 2 interest rate swaps will start in July 2017 and December 2018 and will run until July 2022 and December 2023 respectively. The average interest rate which has been fixed is 0.84% p.a.
As at 30 June 2015 no interest income from loans to associates was recorded (compared to € 1.8 million as at 30 June 2014) due to the repayment of all shareholder loans to the associates in October 2014.
As a result the net financial expenses reached € 2.5 million as at 30 June 2015 compared to € 3.2 million as at 30 June 2014.
The financial debt increased from € 198.8 million as at 31 December 2014 to € 234.0 million as at 30 June 2015. The increase was mainly driven by an increase in bank debt which increased to € 80.1 million compared to € 49.1 million as at 31 December 2014.
The gearing ratio1 of the Group remains conservative and stood at 37.4% at the end of June 2015 compared to a gearing level of 33.2% as at 31 December 2014.
Evolution of the property portfolio
The fair value of the investment property and the investment property under construction (the "property portfolio") as at 30 June 2015 increased with 21.0% to a record level of € 503.5 million compared to € 416.1 million as at 31 December 2014.
Completed projects
During 2015, 8 building were completed totalling 98,567 m².
These buildings were delivered in following locations. In Germany: 3 buildings totalling 30,558 m² in VGP Park Hamburg, 1 building of 19,805 in VGP Park Rodgau and 1 building of 15,140 m² in VGP Park Höchstadt. In the other countries: 1 building of 15,270 m² in VGP Park Malacky (Slovakia), 1 building of 10,384 m² in VGP Park Timisoara (Romania) and finally 1 building of 7,410 m² in VGP Park Nehatu (Estonia).

At the end of June 2015 VGP has the following 19 new buildings under construction: In Germany: 2 buildings in VGP Park Hamburg, 4 buildings in VGP Park Rodgau, 1 building in VGP Park Borna and 1 building in VGP Park Berlin. In the Czech Republic: 1 building in VGP Park Tuchomerice, 1 building in VGP Park BRNO, 2 buildings in VGP Park Plzen, 1 building in VGP Park Usti nad Labem and 2 buildings in VGP Park Olomouc which will be merged into one building on completion. In the other countries: 1 building in VGP Park Nehatu (Estonia), 2 buildings in VGP Park Malacky (Slovakia) and
1 Gearing calculated as "net debt / total equity and liabilities"
finally 1 building in VGP Park Timisoara (Romania). The new buildings under construction on which several pre-leases have already been signed, represent a total future lettable area of 322,014 m².
Land bank
During the first half of 2015 VGP continued to target a significant amount of land plots in order to ensure that the land bank remains sufficiently large to support the development pipeline for future growth.
VGP has currently a land bank in full ownership of 2,950,204 m². The land bank allows VGP to develop besides the current completed projects and projects under construction a further 626,000 m² of lettable area of which 440,000 m² in Germany, 51,000 m² in the Czech Republic, and 135,000 in the other countries.
Besides this VGP has another 954,000 m² of new land plots under option. These land plots have a development potential of approx. 389,000 m² of new projects. These remaining land plots are expected to be acquired during the second half of 2015.
During the month of August 2015, VGP was able to secure a land plot of 540,000 in Bratislava (Slovakia). This land plot will be acquired in 2 phases i.e. phase 1 (200,000 m²) and phase 2 (340,000 m²) and will allow VGP to develop in total circa 240,000 m².
Geographic Expansion
New territories
During the first half year VGP established itself in Spain by opening an office in Barcelona. VGP has in the meantime targeted a number of land plots and it is anticipated that first acquisitions of land will occur during the second half of 2015.
VGP is also looking at expanding into the Nordic countries and is actively looking to secure land plots to start up its development activities there.
Existing territories
A 85,000 m² secured land plot located next to the ring road of Budapest (Hungary) was acquired during the month of August 2015. The development of a pre-let building of 22,892 m² was immediately started up and should be completed early 2016. The building is fully pre-let to a blue chip company under a 12 year lease contract.
As mentioned before in Slovakia VGP was able to secure an additional 540,000 m² land plot close to Bratislava during August 2015.
Hybrid securities
In order to strengthen its consolidated equity base and support its further growth, VGP NV issued subordinated perpetual securities in July 2015 for an aggregate amount of € 20 million. The securities were fully underwritten by the reference shareholders of the company, VM Invest NV and Little Rock SA after complying with the conflict of interest procedure in accordance with article 523 of the Belgian
Companies Code and article 16 of the articles of association of the Company. The securities are not convertible into VGP shares and, hence, do not entail dilution for the shareholders.
Additional comments on the 30 June 2015 condensed interim financial accounts
Deferred taxes
As at the end of June 2015 the deferred tax liabilities increased from € 27.3 million at the end of December 2014 to € 42.3 million at the end of June 2015. The increase is due to the deferred tax recorded on the fair value adjustment of the property portfolio and has therefore no effect on the liquidity position of the Group.
Risk Factors
The overview of the most significant risks to which the VGP Group is exposed to can be found on page 36 to 37 of the Annual Report 2014. These risks remain actual and valid and will continue to apply for the remainder of the financial year.
Outlook 2015
Based on the positive trend in the demands for lettable area recorded by VGP during 2015 and the continuing trend seen after the first half year, and provided there are no unforeseen events of economic and financial markets nature, VGP should be able to continue to substantially expand its rent income and property portfolio through the completion and start-up of additional new buildings.
During the second half of 2015 VGP will continue to review its sources of funding and funding strategy in order to enable the Group to continue to invest in the expansion of the land bank to support its development activities as well as to maximise shareholder value.

6. NOTES TO THE INTERIM CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the period ended 30 June
1 Basis of preparation
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting", as adopted by the European Union. The condensed consolidated financial information was approved for issue on 28 August 2015 by the Board of Directors.
2 Significant accounting policies
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements are prepared on a historic cost basis, with the exception of investment properties and investment property under construction as well as financial derivatives which are stated at fair value. All figures are in thousands of Euros (EUR '000).
The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group's annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2014 except for the following new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations which became effective during the first half year of 2015:
- Improvements to IFRS (2011-2013) (applicable for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015)
- IFRIC 21 Levies (applicable for annual periods beginning on or after 17 June 2014)
The initial recognition of the above new standards did not have a material impact on the financial position and performance of the Group.
3 Segment information
A segment is a distinguishable component of the Group that is engaged either in providing products or services (business segment), or in providing products or services within a particular economic area (geographic segment) and which is subject to risks and rewards that are different from those of other segments. As the majority of the assets of the Group are geographically located in the Czech Republic and increasingly in Germany, a distinction between the Czech Republic, Germany and the other countries ("Other countries") has been made. The segment assets include all items directly attributable to the segment as well as those elements that can reasonably be allocated to a segment (financial assets and income tax receivables are therefore part of segment assets). Given the growing importance of property and facility management services the income on the property and facility management as well as the development businesses have been separately included on a geographical basis. Unallocated amounts include the administrative costs incurred for the Group's supporting functions. All rent income is coming from semi-industrial buildings. There is no risk concentration in terms of income contribution from a single tenant. The unallocated assets relate to cash equivalents of VGP NV (€ 18.3 million) and other (€2.0 million).

Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2: other techniques for which all inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly
Level 3: techniques which use inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data.
During the reporting period ending 30 June 2015, there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements, and no transfers into and out of Level 3 fair value measurements.

AUDITOR'S REPORT
VGP NV
Report on review of the consolidated interim financial information for the six-month period ended 30 June 2015
To the board of directors
In the context of our appointment as the company's statutory auditor, we report to you on the consolidated interim financial information. This consolidated interim financial information comprises the condensed consolidated balance sheet as at 30 June 2015, the condensed consolidated income statement, the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity and the condensed consolidated cash flow statement for the period of six months then ended, as well as selective notes 1 to 15.
Report on the consolidated interim financial information
We have reviewed the consolidated interim financial information of VGP NV ("the company") and its subsidiaries (jointly "the group"), prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting as adopted by the European Union.
The condensed consolidated balances sheet shows total assets of 545,434 (000) EUR and the condensed consolidated income statement shows a consolidated profit (group share) for the period then ended of 32,206 (000) EUR.
The board of directors of the company is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the 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 consolidated interim financial information based on our review.
Scope of review
We conducted our review of the consolidated interim financial information in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements (ISRE) 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 performed in accordance with the International Standards on Auditing (ISA) 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 on the consolidated interim financial information
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the consolidated interim financial information of VGP NV has not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting as adopted by the European Union.
Diegem, 28 August 2015
