- Interim Management Report
1. Summary of the activities since 1 July 2019
Since 1 July 2019, Aedifica has further strengthened its position as a European market reference in listed healthcare real estate. The Group's international expansion continued unabated due to the numerous acquisitions and completions of recent months.
EUROPEAN EXPANSION
Less than a year after entering the UK market in February 2019, Aedifica again demonstrated its international ambitions in early November by launching a public tender offer on the shares of Hoivatilat, a Finnish healthcare real estate investor operating in Finland and Sweden. At the end of January 2020, upon completion of two successful offer periods, Aedifica has acquired more than 98% of the shares and initiated a squeeze-out procedure, which will complete Hoivatilat's integration into the Aedifica group in the coming months. Taking into account Aedifica's track record of international growth and Hoivatilat's successful build-and-hold strategy, this milestone transaction provides an excellent basis for the Group's future growth in Northern Europe and the further anchoring of Aedifica as a European market reference in listed healthcare real estate1.
Aedifica's international ambitions were not only evident in Northern Europe. During the first half of 2019/2020, the Group announced or completed over €380 million of investments in Germany, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. A total of 30 new healthcare real estate sites were added to the portfolio. In addition, six development projects in the investment pipeline amounting to approx. €34 million were completed.
All the investments made during the first half year led Aedifica's real estate portfolio to grow to 290 sites with a capacity of more than 21,000 residents. The fair value of marketable investment properties (including assets classified as held for sale*) increased by approx. €297 million (+13%) to €2,567 million (compared to €2,270 million at the beginning of the financial year). Taking into account the acquisition of Hoivatilat, Aedifica reached the €3 billion mark in early January 2020. In addition, as at 31 December 2019, the Group has a total investment budget in development projects of approx. €480 million (excl. Hoivatilat; see section 1.2 of the property report below). All of these projects are already pre-let. Taking into account the fair value of the investment properties, the development projects to be carried out over a period of three years and the acquisitions realised and announced since 1 January 2020, Aedifica's total portfolio is expected to reach the €3.65 billion mark.
RECOGNITION ON THE STOCK MARKET
The fact that Aedifica's growth strategy continues to enjoy market confidence was reflected in the evolution of the share price, which rose from €83.90 (30 June 2019) to €113.20 (31 December 2019) during the first half of the year, and even reached a record high of €136.40 in February 2020. Based on the share price on 31 December 2019, the Aedifica share has a premium of 84.3% compared to the net asset value per share excluding changes in fair value of hedging instruments*, or a premium of 89.8% compared to the net asset value per share.

The recognition of the investors on the stock market was marked with an award. Aedifica received the BEL Mid Company of the Year 2019 award in January 2020, after the Group recorded the highest relative increase in market capitalisation for the year 2019 among the companies included in the BEL Mid Index.
EXCELLENT RESULTS
Aedifica focuses not only on investments and growth but also on managing its existing real estate assets. The result of this effort is reflected in excellent rental incomes (+42%). The EPRA Earnings* increased by 47%, reaching €46.6 million (31 December 2018: €31.7 million), i.e. €1.89 per share (31 December 2018: €1.74 per share), an increase of 9%. Aedifica's total profit amounts to €69 million (compared to €39 million as at 31 December 2018).
FUTURE GROWTH
During the past six months, Aedifica has proven that it can achieve its growth ambitions, and the Group intends to continue along this path during the remaining months of the financial year. Various new investment opportunities are being analysed. Even without taking into account new investments, the Group's future growth is assured by the extensive pipeline of investment projects. Through the combination of new investments and existing agreements on the acquisition, renovation, expansion, redevelopment and construction of numerous sites, Aedifica can build up a portfolio of high-quality buildings that offer attractive net returns and further strengthen its position as a European market reference in listed healthcare real estate.

- Aedifica and Hoivatilat are joining forces in Northern Europe2
In November 2019, Aedifica (through its Finnish subsidiary Aureit Holding Oy) launched a voluntary public tender offer on all shares of Hoivatilat Oy, a Finnish healthcare real estate investor operating in Finland and Sweden. At the end of January 2020, Aedifica completed its tender offer on Hoivatilat, bringing the Group into the Northern European market and adding the fifth and sixth countries to its portfolio. Aedifica controls approx. 98.2% of all issued and outstanding shares and voting rights in Hoivatilat. Aedifica has initiated a squeeze-out procedure to acquire the remaining Hoivatilat shares and to de-list the Hoivatilat shares on Nasdaq Helsinki. It is expected that this will be finalised in the course of the coming months.
Hoivatilat is an attractive partner to enter the Northern European healthcare real estate market with a high-quality,purpose-built portfolio, a substantial pipeline of development projects and a very experienced management team. The company has a build-and-hold strategy and thus itself develops the care buildings that are rented out. This transaction offers an excellent opportunity for Hoivatilat to continue its growth strategy, both in Finland and in the other countries of Northern Europe.
On 30 September 2019, Hoivatilat's completed portfolio included 148 care buildings (rest homes, specialised residential care centres and children day-care centres) in Finland, amounting to approx. €430 million. In addition, there is a pipeline of 40 development projects in Finland and Sweden amounting to approx. €147 million.
Aedifica has offered a price of €16.00 per Hoivatilat share, which implies an enterprise value of approx. €630 million on 30 September 2019. Aedifica financed this transaction through existing and new bank financing (see section 3.4 below).
Hoivatilat publishes its annual results on 21 February 2020.
3.3. Disposals
- Disposal of De Statenhof Hoogbouw in Leiden (NL)
On 13 December 2019, the De Statenhof Hoogbouw building located in Leiden (Netherlands) was sold for approx. €6.5 million.
3.4. Management of financial resources
During the second quarter of the 2019/2020 financial year, Aedifica established new long-term financing arrangements for a total amount of €90 million that will mature between 2024 and 2026.
In addition, a bridge facility was concluded at the end of October 2019 to finance the acquisition of Hoivatilat Oy (see section 3.2 above) and to refinance the bridge facility that was concluded for the acquisition of the healthcare real estate portfolio in the United Kingdom. This bridge facility has a maturity of 12 months and comprises two tranches of €300 million and £150 million, respectively. The tranche in British pound was used at the end of November 2019 to repay the old bridge facility of the same amount. Following the successful tender offer on the shares of Hoivatilat, the tranche in euro was used on 9 January 2020 to purchase the shares offered during the initial offer period ending on 3 January 2020.

Based on the fair value(re-assessed every three months). For healthcare real estate, the gross yield and the net yield are generally equal
('triple net' contracts), with the operating charges, the maintenance costs and the rents on empty spaces related to the operations generally being supported by the operator in Belgium, the United Kingdom and (often) the Netherlands. In Germany (and the Netherlands, in some cases), the net yield is generally lower than the gross yield, with certain charges remaining at the responsibility of the owner, such as the repair and maintenance of the roof, structure and facades of the building ('double net' contacts).

The consolidated turnover (consolidated rental income) for the first half of the current financial year amounts to €72.0 million, an increase of 42% as compared to the same period of the previous financial year.
6The consolidated income statement covers the 6-month period from 1 July 2019 to 31 December 2019. Acquisitions are accounted for on the date of the effective transfer of control. Therefore, these operations present different impacts on the income statement, depending on whether they took place at the beginning, during, or at the end of the period.

The consolidated rental income by country is presented in the following table:
Consolidated rental income | 31 December 2019 | 31 December 2018 | Var. (%) on a | Var. (%) |
(x €1,000) | like-for-like | |||
basis* | ||||
Belgium | 28,454 | 33,792 | +1.7% | -15.8% |
Germany | 13,549 | 10,000 | +0.9% | +35.5% |
Netherlands | 10,910 | 7,006 | +2.0% | +55.7% |
United Kingdom | 19,057 | 0 | - | +100% |
Total | 71,970 | 50,798 | +1.6% | +41.7% |
The increase in consolidated rental income demonstrates the relevance of Aedifica's investment strategy and can be explained by the large number of sites that Aedifica has added to its portfolio over the past year, through the completion of new acquisitions and the delivery of development projects from the pipeline.
The decrease of rental income in Belgium is explained by the divestment of the non-strategic parts of the portfolio (apartment buildings and hotels), which was completed at the end of the previous financial year. As all these non-strategic buildings are located in Belgium, their divestment only has an impact on Belgian rental income. On a like-for-like basis*, however, Belgian rental income has increased (+1.7%).
After deducting rental-relatedcharges(€0.5 million), in particular a write-down on bad debtors, the net rental incomeamounts to €71.4 million (+40% as compared to 31 December 2018).
The property resultis €71.4 million (31 December 2018: €50.3 million). This result, less other direct
costs, leads to a property operating resultof €69.1 million (31 December 2018: €48.2 million). This
implies an operating margin* of 97% (31 December 2018: 95%).
After deducting overheads of €9.0 million (31 December 2018: €6.1 million) and taking into account other operating income and charges, the operating result before result on the portfoliohas increased by 43% to reach €60.1 million (31 December 2018: €42.1 million). This result represents an EBIT margin*of 84% (31 December 2018: 83%).
The share of each segment in the operating result before result on the portfolio (segment result according to IFRS 8) is detailed in Note 3 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Taking into account the cash flows generated by hedging instruments, Aedifica's net interest chargesamount to €8.6 million (31 December 2018: €7.5 million). The average effective interest rate before capitalised interests* including commitment feesis 2.0%, lower than during the first half of the financial year 2018/2019 (2.2%). Taking into account other income and charges of a financial nature, and excluding the net impact of the revaluation of hedging instruments to their fair value (non-cash movements accounted for in accordance with IAS 39 are not included in the EPRA Earnings* as explained below), the financial result excluding changes in fair value*represents a net charge of €10.4 million (31 December 2018: €8.6 million).

Corporate taxesare composed of current taxes, deferred taxes and exit tax. In conformity with the special tax system of RRECs, the taxes due (31 December 2019: €3.8 million; 31 December 2018: €1.4 million) consist primarily of Belgian tax on Aedifica's non-deductible expenditures, tax generated abroad by Aedifica and tax on the result of consolidated subsidiaries. In the Dutch subsidiary (Aedifica Nederland BV), for the sake of caution it was decided to opt for a common law tax burden in the result, notwithstanding the fact that the subsidiary still has a claim to the application of the fiscally transparent regime of a 'Fiscale Beleggingsinstelling' ('Tax Investment Institution'). Deferred taxes are described below.
Theshare in the result of associates and joint ventures includes the result of the participation in Immobe NV, which has been consolidated since 31 March 2019 using the equity method.
Theshare in the result of the associates and joint ventures and theminority interests are divided, as described below, into a portion of EPRA Earnings* (€0.8 million and €0.0 million, respectively) on the one hand, andnon-cashflow elements (€1.8 million and €0.1 million, respectively) on the other.
EPRA Earnings*(see Note 15.7.1.) reached €46.6 million for this half year (31 December 2018: €31.7 million), or €1.89 per share, based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding (31 December 2018: €1.74 per share).
The income statement also includes elements with no monetary impact (that is to say, non-cash) that vary as a function of external market parameters. These consist of changes in the fair value of investment properties (accounted for in accordance with IAS 40), changes in the fair value of financial assets and liabilities (accounted for in accordance with IAS 39), other results on portfolio, exit tax and deferred taxes (arising from IAS 40):
- Over the first six months of the financial year,changes in the fair value of marketable
investment properties7taken into income amounted to +1.1%, or +€27.1 million (31 December 2018: +1.2% or +€23.2 million). A change in fair value of -€7.1 million was recorded on development projects (31 December 2018: -€10.1 million). The combined change in fair value for marketable investment properties and development projects represents an increase of €20.0 million for the half year (31 December 2018: €13.1 million).
- In order to limit the interest rate risk stemming from the financing of its investments, Aedifica has put in placelong-term hedges8which allow for the conversion of variable-rate debt to fixed- rate debt, or to capped-rate debt. On 31 December 2019, 92% of the drawings in euros on these variable-rate credit facilities were covered by hedging instruments (swaps and caps). In addition, forward contracts were signed during the financial year to hedge the exchange rate risk of the portfolio in the United Kingdom. These financial instruments are detailed in Note 7 of the attached Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Moreover, the financial instruments also reflect put options granted to certain minority shareholders which are the subject of appraisal at fair value. Changes in the fair value of financial assets and liabilitiestaken into
the income statement as of | 31 December 2019 represent an income of €3.4 million |
(31 December 2018: income of | €0.2 million). |
7That change corresponds to the sum of the positive and negative variations of the fair value of the buildings as of 30 June 2019
or the time of entry of new buildings in the portfolio, and the fair value estimated by the valuation experts as of 31 December 2019.
8Long term hedges permit a reduction in the interest rate risk on investment financing that generates revenues over the long term, such as long leases. The weighted average unexpired lease term of the leases is 21 years.

- Deferred taxes(charge of €3.7 million as of 31 December 2019 as compared to the charge of €1.3 million on 31 December 2018) arose from the recognition at fair value of buildings located abroad, in conformity with IAS 40. These deferred taxes (with no monetary impact, that is to say, non-cash) are excluded from the EPRA Earnings*.
- Exit tax9(charge of €0.1 million as of 31 December 2018, compared to a charge of €0.5 million as of 31 December 2018) corresponds to the variation between the estimated exit tax at the moment of acquisition of companies and the estimated exit tax at their anticipated merger dates.
Taking into account the non-monetary elements described above, the profit (owners of the parent)amounts to €69.2 million (31 December 2018: €38.8 million). The basic earnings per share (as defined by IAS 33) is €2.81 (31 December 2018: €2.12).
9In 2017, exit tax was presented under changes in fair value of investment properties. This change of presentation had no impact on either net profit or EPRA Earnings*.

-Marketable investment properties including assets classified as held for sale*
(31 December 2019: €2,567 million; 30 June 2019: €2,270 million), increase in the amount of €297 million. The net growth in the fair value of marketable investment properties* is attributed primarily to €231 million from investment operations (see section 3.1 above), to -€5 million from divestment operations (see section 3.3 above), to €16 million from the completion of development projects (see section 3.1 above), to €28 million from exchange rate differences and to €27 million from the change in the fair value of marketable investment properties.
- Development projects(31 December 2019: €68 million; 30 June 2019: €51 million), consist primarily of investment properties under construction or renovation. They are part of a multi- annual investment budget (see section 1.2 of the property report).
The item 'Other assets included in debt-to-assets ratio' includes the shares of Hoivatilat Oy held by Aureit Holding amounting to €19 million and holdings in associated companies and joint ventures. This includes the remaining stake of 25% in Immobe NV, which amounts to €35.9 million as of 31 December 2019 (30 June 2019: €33.9 million).
Theother assets included in the debt-to-assets ratio represent 3% of the total balance sheet (30 June 2019: 3%).
10The investment properties are represented at their fair value as determined by the valuation experts (Cushman & Wakefield Belgium NV/SA, Deloitte Consulting & Advisory CVBA/SCRL, CBRE GmbH, Jones Lang LaSalle SE, DTZ Zadelhoff VOF, Savills Consultancy BV and Cushman & Wakefield Debenham Tie Leung Ltd).

Since Aedifica's incorporation, its capital has increased as a result of various real estate activities (contributions, mergers, etc.) and the capital increases in cash in October 2010, December 2012, June 2015, March 2017 and May 2019. As of 31 December 201911, the Company's capital amounts to €649 million (30 June 2019: €649 million). Equity(also called net assets), which represents Aedifica's intrinsic net value and takes into account the fair value of its investment portfolio, amounts to:
- €1,516 million excluding the effect of the changes in fair value of hedging instruments* (30 June 2019: €1,480 million, including the €54 million dividend distributed in October 2019);
- or €1,472 million taking into account the effect of the changes in fair value of hedging instruments (30 June 2019: €1,430 million, including the €54 million dividend distributed in October 2019).
As of 31 December 2019, liabilities included in thedebt-to-assetsratio(as defined in the Royal Decree of 13 July 2014 on RRECs) reached €1,195 million (30 June 2019: €888 million). Of this amount, €1,164 million (30 June 2019: €859 million) is effectively drawn on the Company's credit lines. Aedifica's consolidated debt-to-assetsratioamounts to 43.8% (30 June 2019: 37.2%). As the maximum debt-to- assets ratio permitted for Belgian RRECs is set at 65% of total assets amounts, Aedifica currently still has a consolidated debt capacity of €578 million in constant assets (i.e., excluding growth in the real estate portfolio) and €1,652 million in variable assets (i.e., taking into account growth in the real estate portfolio). Conversely, if all other parameters remain the same, the current balance sheet structure can absorb a 34% reduction in the fair value of the properties before reaching the maximum debt-to-assets ratio. Given Aedifica's existing bank commitments, which further limit the maximum debt-to-assets ratio to 60%, the available headroom amounts to €442 million in constant assets, €1,105 million in variable assets, and -28% in the fair value of investment properties.
Other liabilitiesof €62 million (30 June 2019: €47 million) represent primarily the fair value of hedging
instruments (31 December 2019: €43 million; 30 June 2019: €48 million).

- The effect of the changes in fair value of hedging instruments of-€1.79 per share as of 31 December 2019 is the impact in equity of the fair value of hedging instruments, which is negative for €44 million, mainly booked in the liabilities on the balance sheet.
- Recall that IFRS requires the presentation of the annual accounts before appropriation. The net asset value of €60.16 per share as of 30 June 2019 (as published in the 2018/2019 Annual Financial Report) thus included the dividend distributed in October 2019, and should now be adjusted by €2.20 per share in order to compare with the value as of 31 December 2019. This amount corresponds to the amount of the total dividend (approx. €54 million) divided by the total number of shares outstanding as of 30 June 2019 (24,601,158).

7. Outlook
The Board of Directors continues to pay close attention to the shifting economic, financial and political context and the associated impact on the Group's activities.
In the current economic climate, Aedifica's key strengthsinclude the following:
- Aedifica's strategic focus on healthcare real estate and its development in Europe allow the Group to adapt to market opportunities and the evolution of economic conditions in the context of an ageing population. The geographical spread of the portfolio over six countries (Belgium, Germany, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Finland and Sweden) leads to a better risk diversification.
- Thanks to its investments in healthcare real estate, Aedifica benefits from indexedlong-term rental incomes, which generate high net yields. The weighted average unexpired lease term on the total of its leases of 21 years provides Aedifica with a very good view of the majority of its future income streams over the long term.
- The confirmed credit lines ensure the financing of the real estate portfolio (including ongoing project developments) and the further growth of the portfolio. Drawings on these credit facilities are largely covered by hedging instruments. In addition, Aedifica has in the past repeatedly demonstrated that it has excellent access to the capital markets in order to support its growth.
- The combined pipeline of Aedifica and Hoivatilat amount to more than €600 million, assuring the Group's future growth.
Taking into account the results as of 31 December 2019 and the investments that have already been carried out, in particular the integration of Hoivatilat as from 10 January 2020, Aedifica's Board of Directors has decided to adjust the outlook for the current financial year. Based on the anticipated real estate portfolio and without unforeseen developments, rental income for the financial year 2019/2020 is estimated at €163 million. This leads to an EPRA Earnings* of €97 million or €3.95 per share, and allows the payment of a gross dividend of €3.00 per share (an increase of 7% compared to the 2018/2019 dividend), notwithstanding the higher number of shares as a result of the capital increase of May 2019.

The Board of Directors considers that the key risk factors and uncertainties summarised in pages 2 to 13 of the 2018/2019 Annual Financial Report are relevant for the remaining months of the 2019/2020 financial year.
9. Related party transactions
Related party transactions (as defined under IAS 24 and by the Belgian Companies Code) are discussed in Note 13 of the attached Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. These transactions relate exclusively to the remuneration of the members of the Board of Directors and the Management Committee.
Moreover, certain types of transactions are covered by Article 37 of the Act of 12 May 2014 on RREC (with the exception of cases explicitly covered by Article 38 of the same Act).

II. EPRA14
The EPRA ('European Public Real Estate Association') is the voice of Europe's publicly traded real estate sector and the most widely used global benchmark for listed real estate. Aedifica's shares were added to the 'FTSE EPRA/NAREIT Developed Europe Index' on 18 March 2013.
As of 31 december 2019, Aedifica is included in the European EPRA Index with a weighting of approx. 1.0% and in the Belgian EPRA Index with a weighting of approx. 19.6%.
Aedifica supports this approach to reporting standardisation, which has been designed to improve the quality and comparability of information. The Company supplies its investors with most of the information recommended by EPRA. Some of the EPRA indicators are considered to be alternative performance measures (APM). They are described in Note 15 of this half year financial report's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Key performance indicators according to the EPRA principles | ||
31 December 2019 | 31 December 2018 | |
EPRA Earnings* (in €/share) | 1.89 | 1.74 |
EPRA Cost Ratio (including direct vacancy costs)* (in %) | 17% | 17% |
EPRA Cost Ratio (excluding direct vacancy costs)* (in %) | 17% | 17% |
31 December 2019 | 30 June 2019 | |
EPRA NAV* (in €/share) | 62.07 | 58.44 |
EPRA NNNAV* (in €/share) | 59.26 | 55.61 |
EPRA Net Initial Yield (NIY) (in %) | 5.3% | 5.5% |
EPRA Topped-up NIY (in %) | 5.6% | 5.5% |
EPRA Vacancy Rate (in %) | 0% | 0% |
The above-mentioned EPRA NAV* and EPRA NNNAV* values as of 30 June 2019 were adjusted downward by €2.20 per share in comparison to the figures published in the 2018/2019 Annual Financial Report, so that they can be compared with the values as of 31 December 2019 (see footnote 13 in section I.6.3 above). This adjustment corresponds to the 2018/2019 gross dividend, which was distributed in October 2019 (see Note 15.6).
The calculation of the EPRA NIY and the EPRA Topped-up NIY was revised for the account closed on 31 December 2019. The ratios now take into account the investment value of the marketable investment properties and no longer the fair value. In comparison, the EPRA NIY and EPRA Topped-up NIY ratios based on the fair value of the marketable investment properties as of 31 December 2019 would be 5.6% and 5.9%.
In 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019, Aedifica was presented with the 'EPRA BPR Gold Award' for its annual financial report five times in a row. Aedifica also won the 'EPRA sBPR Silver Award' and the 'EPRA sBPR Most Improved' for the 2018 Sustainability Report. In this way, Aedifica remains among the leading European companies being evaluated by EPRA.

- Aedifica in the stock market

Following its IPO, Aedifica has completed five capital increases, in cash and with preferential subscription rights or priority allocation rights:
- 15 October 2010: issuance of 2,013,334 new shares at €33.45, for a gross amount of €67 million;
- 7 December 2012: issuance of 2,697,777 new shares at € 37.00, for a gross amount of €100 million;
- 29 June 2015: issuance of 3,121,318 new shares at € 49.00, for a gross amount of €153 million;

- 7 May 2019: issuance of 6,147,142 new shares at € 68.00, for a gross amount of €418 million.
Aedifica is registered in the Bel Mid Index with a weighting of approximately 9.6% (31 December 2019). In addition, the Aedifica share is also included in the EPRA, MSCI and Stoxx Europe 600 indexes.
The Aedifica share price fluctuated between €85.50 and €116.80 over the first half of the year and closed the first half of the financial year at €113.20, an increase of approx. 35% compared to 30 June 2019 (€83.90).
Based on the stock price as at 31 December 2019, Aedifica shares have a premium of:
- 84.3% as compared to the net asset value per share excluding changes in the fair value of hedging instruments*;
- 89.8% as compared to the net asset value per share.
Compared to the net asset value, this premium is a vote of confidence in Aedifica's track record and reflects, among other things, Aedifica's pure play focus on healthcare real estate, the Group's future growth, the stable nature of the profits generated in the long term and the attractive dividend.
Between Aedifica's IPO (after deduction of the coupons which represented the preferential subscription rights or the priority allocation rights as part of the above-mentioned capital increases) and 31 December 2019, Aedifica's stock price increased by 211.2%, as compared to an increase of 65.3% for the Bel Mid index and a decrease of 6.9% for the EPRA Europe index over the same period.
During the first half year, the liquidity of the Aedifica share also increased. The average daily volume was approx. €4,024,000 or approximately 38,400 shares, which means that the turnover rate increased to 41.7%. Aedifica continues its efforts to broaden its investor base further by regularly participating in road shows and events for institutional and private investors alike.

- Amounts in £ were converted into € based on the exchange rate of 31 December 2019 (1.1754 £/€).
- Although still under construction, the sites already generate limited rental incomes, in particular for the plots of land that have already been acquired. Their values are therefore no longer mentioned in the table above. This explains why the estimated investment values differ from those mentioned earlier.
- Part of the cooperation agreement with Specht Gruppe.

3. The healthcare real estate market
3.1. Belgium19
In recent years, the number of rest home beds in Belgium has steadily increased to reach a capacity of approx. 150,000 units. According to demographic forecasts, and given the increased life expectancy, a deficit between this increased supply and demand seems to persist in the long term. The split of these beds between different types of operators remains relatively stable. In Flanders, public operators manage 30% of the beds, while not-for-profit operators and private operators manage 37% and 33%, respectively. In Wallonia, public operators manage 2% of the beds, not-for-profit operators manage 21% and private operators manage 50%. In Brussels, the number of beds managed by the private sector exceeds 60%. Given the increasing trend toward professionalisation, private operators are urged to consolidate and to improve their organisation. At present, the three main private operators (Colisée through Armonea, Orpea and Korian through Senior Living Group) manage more than 23,000 beds - approx. 17% of all beds in Belgium.
Considering the latest data, life expectancy in Belgium and Europe is increasing, reaching 78.2 years for men and 83.2 years for women. This trend will continue during the coming years, reaching 81 years for men, and 85.7 years for women, by 2030. Given the fact that the period during which elderly people suffer from health problems remains stable (about 15 years for men and 18 years for women), progress in terms of health care, home automation and home care will play an increasingly important role in limiting an early relocation to residential care facilities. As a result, people tend to transfer to a rest home around the age of 86 (in average); their average stay remains stable at 580 to 590 days. Nevertheless, the length of stay in residential care homes seems to be decreasing slightly. For newcomers, the average length of stay is currently around 370 days.
Moreover, the latest Eurostat demographic perspectives show that aging is continuing in both Europe and Belgium. The number of Belgians aged 80 and over is expected to grow from 610,000 to 790,000 by 2030, an increase of 180,000 people in 15 years or 12,000 per year. According to the OCDE, the need for care in rest homes increases with age: 25% of 75-year-olds, 30% to 40% of 80-year-olds, and more than 50% of those aged 85 and above. Based on this data, the need for new beds in residential care facilities is estimated at 3,000 to 4,000 per year. In Flanders, the need for new beds is significantly higher than in Brussels or Wallonia.
In this regard, it seems logical that health care real estate is becoming increasingly attractive to investors. The (very) long-term contracts with operators, indexed rents, and triple net leases are key factors for REITs, which were the first to enter this market, as well as for insurance companies and pension funds. The main elements for investors are the operator's solvency and the future sustainability of subsidies.
Since 2012, an average of more than €200 million has been invested annually in the Belgian healthcare real estate sector (approx. €300 million in 2015 and 2016). In 2019, the volume of investments in Belgian healthcare real estate reached a record high of more than €480 million, mainly due to the acquisition of large portfolios by various RRECs.This trend is increasing. Given the attractiveness of investments in healthcare real estate, the increased professionalisation of operators and historically low interest rates, gross rental yields are decreasing. While prime yields (based on long-term triple net leases) amounted to more than 6% in 2011-2012, they are, at the end of 2018, below the 5% threshold.The most recent

transactions in 2019 indicate that the initial net return has fallen even further to 4.5%, the lowest level to date. In this context, the quality, versatility and overall sustainability of investment properties are becoming even more important.
To increase the flexibility and complementarity of real estate properties, several initiatives have been undertaken in recent years to bring together residential sites so as to provide service to several types of dependent persons. (such as service-residences or accommodation for youth with disabilities).
Given the above-mentioned demographic perspectives and the specificity of the healthcare real estate sector, it seems clear that the investment market can be expected to continue to thrive in the years to come. It is possible new actors will be attracted to the market, but the presence of the existing actors is ensured, given the benefits arising from their profound knowledge of the sector. In the coming months, yields are not expected to experience further compression.
3.2. Germany20
The German healthcare market is a growth market. According to the German Statistical Office, more than three million people in Germany are currently in need of care given the terms of the German social security code. Within the next years, the share of people in need of care within the total population is estimated to grow significantly. According to the most recent data, as of the end of 2017, Germany had approx. 82.8 million inhabitants, of which around 17.7 million aged over 65 and a total of 3.4 million people in need of care. Of these 3.4 million, 2.59 million (76%) were cared for at home (68% by caregiving relatives and 32% by out-patient care services). 818,000 of the people in need of care were cared for in full-time care homes. By the year 2030, up to 3.5 million people in need of care are expected, but the number of caregiving relatives for informal care however, is set to decline. This is caused by the changes of the demographic structure within the population, altered family structures, greater distances between the homes of family members and the increased number of middle-age and older employed women. Population ageing will be further amplified by the generation of babyboomers, born between 1956 and 1965, who have already reached 60 years of age or who will turn 60 in the coming years. Consequently, the need for senior housing will increase over the next decades.
At the end of 2018, there are approx. 952,000 beds in more than 14,400 care homes in Germany, of which 94% cater to seniors and 6% cater to disabled persons or people who suffer from mental health disorders or terminal illness. These care homes are operated by not-for-profit operators (approx. 53%), private operators (approx. 42%) and public operators (approx. 5%).
According to various market studies, the capacity of care homes needs to increase by approx. 340,000 units by 2030. Thus, the ageing population offers significant growth potential and consolidation opportunities in the collective healthcare property sector in Germany.
In 2019, the investment volume in the German healthcare real estate market amounted to approx. €2.1 billion. This volume was mainly invested in rest homes (approx. €1.2 billion), followed by senior housing and assisted-living housing (€470 million), medical centres (€263 million) and hospitals (€135 million). With a transaction volume of €757 million, the fourth quarter of 2019 was the strongest last quarter ever in the German healthcare real estate market. The transactions were mainly realised by international investors, which accounted for 62% (approx. €1.3 million) of the total transaction volume.

Investors from European countries were particularly active and accounted for 92% of the total volume of transactions (38% of the total came from investors from Germany, followed by investors from France (33%) and Belgium (10%)).
At the end of 2019, the 'prime' net yield for rest homes decreased by 0.25% to 4.50%. Healthcare properties are still seen as a sustainable and common asset class, where transactions with a yield below 5% have occasionally already been registered. Moreover, thanks to a higher quality of the buildings compared to the past, healthcare real estate sites are less quickly declared outdated, as a result of which the risk premium for care properties as an asset class continues to decrease.
In 2020, the great interest of investors in healthcare real estate will continue and will only be slowed down by the availability of real estate on the market. The possibilities for building and creating new rest home capacity are limited for all market players, whether they are operators, developers, investors or the company. One of the reasons for this is the lack of construction sites. Compared to other types of real estate, the high costs of construction sites and construction works are often not economically viable in the case of healthcare real estate. However, the lack of construction sites also has a positive effect: operators are once again investing more in existing sites and renovations. In 2019, approx. €400 million was invested in new construction projects or renovated buildings, which corresponds to approx. 19% of the total volume of healthcare real estate investments.
3.3. The Netherlands21
The Netherlands currently has a population of approx. 17.4 million inhabitants. The Central Bureau of Statistics predicts a slight growth in the population, to reach 18.3 million inhabitants by 2040. Population growth beyond 2040 remains uncertain. It is certain, however, that the number of elderly will increase sharply over this period, from 3.3 million persons over 65 years of age to 4.8 million in 2040 (i.e. 26% of the population), and from 0.8 million persons over 80 years of age to 1.6 million persons in 2040 (i.e. 9% of the population). About 20% of this group requires care, and over 5% need continuous assistance (as provided in traditional care facilities). This latter group often includes individuals suffering from dementia. According to 'Alzheimer Nederland', this number will double by 2040. Consequently, senior care constitutes a significant growth area in The Netherlands.
An increasing portion of these people do not opt for traditional care facilities, but prefer to obtain in- home care or care in private residential care facilities (such as the care residences offered by Domus Magnus, Martha Flora, Het Gouden Hart, Compartijn and Stepping Stones). This is due to a number of factors:
- the increasing number of elderly persons with some wealth and higher than average education levels;
- the policy of separating financing for housing and care, which offers more freedom of choice;
- the high personal contribution required for occupancy in traditional care facilities;
- the higher expectations of the current generation of seniors and their children;
- the limited offerings available in traditional care facilities.

Dutch private care providers have anticipated these trends: there are already approx. 300 private residential care facilities in the country and it is foreseen that dozens more will open their doors by 2025. According to these trends, it appears that an increasing group of seniors seek - and are able to pay for
- higher quality services.
On average, a private residential care facility in The Netherlands contains approx. 24 units. The limited number of units is what strengthens and distinguishes them from traditional care facilities and assisted- living apartment facilities, which house between 60 and 200 residents. More than half of the country's private residential care facilities are independently operated. It is expected that an increasing number of operators will manage multiple sites.
3.4. United Kingdom22
The United Kingdom is one of the largest markets in Europe with attractive fundamentals supporting healthcare real estate. The elderly population in the UK is expected to grow significantly. In particular, the number of people over 80 years old is expected to more than double by 2050. An increasingly ageing population requiring greater care and nursing needs is expected to continue to drive significant demand for healthcare real estate in the foreseeable future and support a positive outlook for occupancy levels. The UK care home market is still very fragmented and features approx. 5,500 operators, of which a very high portion are independent private players running operations in small and outdated assets. The top five largest care home operators account for 15% of the total bed capacity, while the top 10 represents 20.8%, highlighting the fragmentation of the sector outside of the top tier providers.
Care home operators in the UK are regulated and must be approved by the regulator before and during operations. Care homes in the UK are frequently inspected by the sector regulator, with reports made publicly available.
The funding of the senior housing market in the UK is based on a mixture of public financing (Local Authorities and National Health Services) and private financing (self-payers). The self-pay market has experienced the fastest growth of all funding sources and represents 45% of the overall market. Local Authorities provide social care after an assessment of a person's eligibility for care and their financial position. The portion of residents funded by Local Authorities in care homes represents on average 46%. The National Health Services fund residents who have been assessed as having a primary health need, representing 9% of the market.
Yield spread remains broad with prime assets falling below 4% whilst mid-market and beyond stock sees 7% and above. Despite the fragmented makeup of the market and prevalence of owner operators, by volume the most acquisitive buyer type remains REITS and quoted property companies.

4. Valuation experts' report23
Gentlemen,
We are pleased to send you our estimate of the fair value of investment properties held by the Aedifica group as of 31 December 2019.
Aedifica assigned to each of the seven valuation experts the task of determining the fair value (from which the investment value is derived24) of one part of its portfolio of investment properties. Assessments are established taking into account the remarks and definitions contained in the reports and following the guidelines of the International Valuation Standards issued by the 'IVSC'.
We have acted individually as valuation experts and have a relevant and recognised qualification, as well as an ongoing experience for the location and the type of buildings assessed. The valuation expert's opinion of fair value was primarily derived using comparable recent market transactions on arm's length terms.
Properties are considered in the context of current leases and of all rights and obligations that these commitments entail. We have evaluated each entity individually. Assessments do not take into account a potential value that can be generated by offering the whole portfolio on the market. Assessments do not take into account selling costs applicable to a specific transaction, such as brokerage fees or advertising. Assessments are based on the inspection of real estate properties and information provided by Aedifica (i.e. rental status and surface area, sketches or plans, rental charges and property taxes related to the property, and compliance and pollution matters). The information provided was assumed to be accurate and complete. Assessments are made under the assumption that no non-communicated piece of information is likely to affect the value of the property.
Based on the seven assessments, the consolidated fair value of the portfolio amounted to €2,635,736,65525as of 31 December 2019, including €2,566,917,703 for marketable investment properties26. Contractual rents amounted to €151,031,628 which corresponds to an initial rental yield of 5.88% compared to the fair value of marketable investment properties.
The abovementioned amounts include the fair values and contractual rents of the UK based assets in pound sterling and converted into euro taking the exchange rate as per 31/12/2019 (1.1754 £/€; rate of the last business day of the quarter) into account.
- The expert report was reproduced with the agreement of Cushman & Wakefield Belgium NV/SA, Deloitte Consulting & Advisory CVBA/SCRL, CBRE GmbH, Jones Lang LaSalle SE, DTZ Zadelhoff VOF, Savills Consultancy BV and Cushman & Wakefield Debenham Tie Leung Limited. The sum of all elements of the portfolio individually assessed by the abovementioned valuation experts constitutes Aedifica's whole consolidated portfolio.
-
'Investment value' is defined by Aedifica as the value assessed by a valuation expert, of which transfer costs are not deducted
(also known as 'gross capital value'). - The abovementioned portfolio is broken down in two lines on the balance sheet (lines 'I.C. Investment properties' and 'II.A. Assets classified as held for sale').
- 'Marketable investment properties' are defined by Aedifica as investment properties including assets classified as held for sale and excluding development projects. Marketable investment properties are hence completed properties that are let or lettable.

As of 31 December 2019:
- the consolidated fair value of the assets located in Belgium amounted to €1,056,936,866; including 1,050,400,914 for marketable investment properties. Contractual rents amounted to €57,200,346 which corresponds to an initial yield of 5.45% to the fair value of the marketable investment properties;
- the consolidated fair value of the assets located in Germany amounted to €578,840,000; including €543,492,000 for marketable investment properties. Contractual rents amounted to €31,404,329 which corresponds to an initial yield of 5.78% to the fair value of the marketable investment properties;
- the consolidated fair value of the assets located in The Netherlands amounted to €428,820,000; including €401,885,000 for marketable investment properties. Contractual rents amounted to €22,930,082 which corresponds to an initial yield of 5.71% to the fair value of the marketable investment properties;
- the consolidated fair value of the assets located in The United Kingdom amounted to £485,911,000 (100% marketable investment properties). Contractual rents amounted to £33,602,919 which corresponds to an initial yield of 6.92% to the fair value of the marketable investment properties.
In the context of a reporting in compliance with the International Financial Reporting Standards, our evaluations reflect the fair value. The fair value is defined by IAS 40 and IFRS 13 as 'the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date'. The IVSC considers that the definition of fair value under IAS 40 and IFRS 13 is generally consistent with market value.
Cushman & Wakefield Belgium SA opinion27:
As of 31 December 2019, the fair value of the part of Aedifica's portfolio valued by Cushman & Wakefield Belgium SA is estimated at €536,791,500 and the investment value (before deduction of the transfer costs28) is estimated at €550,596,000.

- The valuation expert values only a part of Aedifica's portfolio and does not take responsibility for the valuation of the portfolio as a whole. The valuation expert therefore signs only for the accuracy of the figures of the assets he values. No further liability for any other valuation expert will be accepted.
- In this context, the transfer costs require adaptation to the market conditions. Based on the analysis of a large number of transactions in Belgium, the Belgian experts acting at the request of publicly traded real estate companies, reunited in a working group, came to the following conclusion: given the various ways to transfer property in Belgium, the weighted average of the transfer costs was estimated at 2.5%, for investment properties with a value in excess of €2.5 million. The investment value corresponds therefore to the fair value plus 2.5% of transfer costs. The fair value is also calculated by dividing the investment value by 1.025. Properties in Belgium below the threshold of €2.5 million remain subject to usual transfer costs (10.0% or 12.5% depending on their location). Their fair value corresponds thus to the value excluding transfer costs. In this specific case, for residential units, the fair value reflects the potential capital gain per apartment, if sold.

6. Notes
Note 1: General information
Aedifica NV/SA (referred to in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as 'the Company' or 'the Parent') is a limited liability company that has opted for a Public Regulated Real Estate Company (RREC) status under Belgian law. The address of its registered office is:
Rue Belliard 40, B-1040 Brussels (telephone: +32 (0)2 626 07 70).
The Aedifica Group (referred to in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as 'the Group') is composed of the parent-company and its subsidiaries.
Aedifica has been quoted on Euronext Brussels (since 2006) and Euronext Amsterdam (since 2019).
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of 31 December 2019 were approved by the Board of Directors on 18 February 2020.
Note 2: Accounting policies
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements cover the period from 1 July to 31 December 2019. They have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards ('IFRS') and, in particular, the IAS 34 standard on Interim Financial Reporting. These standards comprise the associated standards and interpretations as published by the International Accounting Standards Board ('IASB') and the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee ('IFRIC'), to the extent to which they are applicable to the Group's activities and are effective for the financial years starting on or after 30 June 2019. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have also been prepared in accordance with the Royal Decree of 13 July 2014 on Regulated Real Estate Companies.
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are drawn up in euros and presented in thousands of euros.
The specific principles for financial reporting are summarised in Note 2.2 of the 2018/2019 Consolidated Financial Statements. These methods were applied consistently to all previous financial years.
The new and amended standards and interpretations listed below are compulsory for the Group since
1 July 2019, but had no significant impact on the current Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements:
- 'Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards2015-2017 Cycle' issued in December 2017;
- amendment to IAS 19 'Plan Amendment, Curtailment or Settlement';
- amendment to IAS 28 'Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures';
- new interpretation for IFRIC 23 'Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments';
- amendment to IFRS 9 'Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation';

new standard for IFRS 16 'Leases':
IFRS 16 provides a comprehensive model for lessors and lessees alike to identify lease agreements and their accounting processing in the annual accounts. When it entered into force, this standard replaced IAS 17 'Leases' and the accompanying interpretations. IFRS 16 introduces important changes regarding the accounting processing of lease agreements for the lessee, whereby the distinction between operational and financial leases ceases to exist and assets and liabilities are recognised for all lease agreements (save exceptions for short-term leases or assets having a low value). In contrast to the lessee's processing of the lease agreements, IFRS 16 retains almost all the provisions of IAS 17 'Leases' relating to the lessor's processing of the lease agreements. This means that lessors must continue to classify the lease agreements as operational or financial lease agreements.
Since Aedifica acts almost exclusively as a lessor, IFRS 16 will have no material impact on the consolidated financial statements. A user right and accompanying obligation must be recognised in the statutory and consolidated annual accounts in the limited cases where Aedifica is the lessee in lease agreements classified as operational leases under IAS 17 and these contracts do not fall under the exceptions as laid down in IFRS 16 (e.g. car rental, real estate used by the Group, etc.). The total amount capitalised as a result of the application of IFRS 16 corresponds to the net fair value of the company cars and the building used by the Group as an office. The impact on the consolidated balance sheet as of 31 December 2019 is €2.1 million. This value is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the term of the contracts. A debt corresponding to the net current value is entered in the accounts for this. This debt is amortised using the 'effective interest method'.
Certain new standards, amendments and interpretations of existing standards have been published and will be compulsory for financial years starting on or after 1 July 2020. These amendments, which the Group did not apply early, are as follows (situation as at 23 January 2020):

- new standard for IFRS 17 'Insurance Contracts' (applicable from 1 July 2021, subject to EU approval);
- 'Amendments to References to the Conceptual Framework in IFRS Standards' published in March 2019 (applicable from 1 July 2020);

- In order to finance the acquisition of Hoivatilat and to refinance the bridge facility concluded for the acquisition of the healthcare real estate portfolio in the United Kingdom, a new bridge facility was concluded in October 2019 with a duration of 12 months (consisting of two tranches of €300 million and £150 million, respectively, based on the Euribor and the LIBOR). The tranche in British pound was used at the end of November 2019 and was included in current financial debts for an amount of €176 million.
- Aedifica also benefits from amortising facilities amounting to €53 million at fixed rates between 1.1% and 6.0%, and amounting to €36 million at variable rate.
The amount of the treasury notes programme, which started in June 2018, was increased from €150 million to €300 million at the end of June 2019.

As of 31 December 2019, the Group did not mortgage or pledge any Belgian, Dutch or British building to its creditors. In Germany, however, it is common practice for real estate to be mortgaged as part of bank financing. In this context, 11 of the 67 German buildings were mortgaged. They comply with the requirements of Article 43 of the law of 12 May 2014 on regulated real estate companies.
The classification between current and non-current financial debts is based on the maturity dates of the credit lines on which the drawings are made instead of based on the maturity dates of the drawings.
Taking these elements into account, the maturity dates of the financial debts with Aedifica's seventeen credit providers as of 31 December 2019 are as follows:

- Without regard toshort-term treasury notes and the bridge facility.
Without regard to short-term financing (short-term treasury notes and bridge facility), the weighted average maturity of the financial debts as of 31 December 2019 is 4.6 years.
Note 7: Hedging instruments
Almost all of Aedifica's financial debts are floating-rate borrowings. This allows Aedifica to benefit from low interest rates. In order to limit the interest rate risk, Aedifica has put in place hedges that allow for the conversion of floating-rate debt to fixed-rate debt, or to capped-rate debt.
Furthermore, the acquisition of the healthcare portfolio in the United Kingdom in February 2019 has exposed the Group to foreign exchange risk. On 31 December 2019, Aedifica partially hedged the net cash flows resulting from the financial income from intra-group loans and the financial charges of the bridge facility with British pound forward contracts.

1. Framework
1.1 Management of interest rate risk
All hedges (interest rate swaps or 'IRS' and caps) are related to existing or highly probable risks. Aedifica applies hedge accounting to previously negotiated derivatives that meet the criteria to allow hedge accounting. In accordance with market practices, Aedifica has chosen not to apply hedge accounting to recently negotiated derivatives, even if they meet those strict criteria. Nevertheless, all derivatives provide economic hedging against interest rate risk, regardless of their accounting method. All hedges are provided in the framework of the hedging policy set out in Note 44 of the 2018/2019 Annual Financial Report. The fair value of instruments is calculated by the banks based on the present value of the estimated expected cash flows. This fair value is applied in accordance with IFRS 13 to reflect the company's own credit risk ('debit valuation adjustment' or 'DVA') and the counterparty's credit risk ('credit valuation adjustment' or 'CVA'). The tables below list the Company's hedging instruments.

1.2. Derivatives for which hedge accounting is applied
(x €1,000) | 31/12/2019 | 30/06/2019 |
Changes in fair of the derivatives | ||
Beginning of the year | -20,922 | -11,290 |
Changes in the effective portion of the fair value of hedging instruments (accrued interests) | 3,169 | -11,611 |
Transfer to the income statement of interests paid on hedging instruments | -783 | 1,979 |
Transfer to the reserve account regarding revoked designation | 0 | 0 |
AT YEAR-END | -18,536 | -20,922 |
The amounts recorded in equity will be transferred to net finance costs in line with the payment of interest on the hedged financial debt, between 1 January 2020 and 31 July 2043.
As of 31 December 2019, the equity value includes the effective part (according to IAS 39) of the change in fair value (+€2,390 k) of the financial instruments corresponding to the derivatives for which hedge accounting may be applied, and the ineffective portion of the 2018/2019 financial year (loss of €4 k) that was appropriated by decision of the Annual General Meeting held in October 2019. These financial instruments are 'level 2' derivatives (according to IFRS 13p81). The ineffective part (as defined in IAS 39) is -€11 k as of 31 December 2019.
1.3. Derivatives for which hedge accounting is not applied
The financial result also includes a charge of €4,320 k (30 June 2019: a charge of €5,798 k), arising from the change in the fair value of derivatives for which hedge accounting is not applied (in line with IAS 39, as listed in the framework mentioned above) and the non-linear amortisation of the fair value of terminated derivatives as of their date of termination, which amounts to €554 k (30 June 2019: €1,107 k). The latter is recognised on line 'II. H. Other comprehensive income, net of taxes' of the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income. These financial instruments are 'level 2' derivatives (as defined in IFRS 13p81). The financial result also includes the amortisation of the premiums paid at the time of the subscription to the caps, which amounts to €685 k (30 June 2019: €1,375 k).
1.4. Sensitivity analysis
The fair value of the hedging instruments is determined by the interest rates on the financial markets. These changes partly explain the change in the fair value of the hedging instruments between 1 July 2019 and 31 December 2019. This led to an income of €3,756 k, recognised in the income statement, and to an income of €2,944 k, recognised in equity.
A change in the interest rate curve would impact the fair value of instruments for which hedge accounting is applied (in accordance with IAS 39), and recognised in equity (line 'I.C.d. Reserve for the balance of changes in fair value of authorised hedging instruments qualifying for hedge accounting as defined under IFRS'). All else being equal, a positive change of 10 bps of the interest rate curve at the balance sheet date would have a positive impact on equity in the amount of €2,802 k (€2,832 k as of 30 June 2019). A negative change of 10 bps would have a negative impact in the same range. The impact of a change in the interest rate on the fair value of the instruments for which hedge accounting is not applied cannot be determined as precisely, since options can be embedded within these instruments. The fair value of these options will change in a non-symmetric and non-linear pattern, and is a function of other parameters (e.g. volatility of interest rates). The sensitivity of the 'mark-to-market' value of these instruments to an increase of 10 bps of the interest rate is estimated to have a positive

impact of €2,034 k (€1,220 k on 30 June 2019) on the income statement. A decrease of 10 bps in the interest rate would have a negative impact on the income statement in the same range.
2. Management of foreign exchange risk
2.1. Framework
All hedges (forward purchase contracts of foreign currencies) are related to existing or highly probable risks. The hedging instruments are derivatives for which Aedifica will not systematically apply hedge accounting and which provide economic hedging against foreign exchange risk. All hedges are provided in the framework of the hedging policy set out in Note 44 of the 2018/2019 Annual Financial Report. The fair value of these instruments is calculated by the banks on the basis of the present value of the estimated cash flows. These financial instruments are 'level 2' derivatives (according to IFRS 13p81). On 31 December 2019, Aedifica partially hedged the net cash flows resulting from the financial income from intra-group loans and the financial charges of the bridge facility with British pound forward contracts. The table below provides a breakdown of the hedging instruments.
TYPE | Contract | Maturity | Purchase/ | Currency | Notional | Purchase/ | Currency | Echange | Exchange | Fair value |
date | sale | amount | sale | value | rate | (x 1,000 €) | ||||
(x 1,000 €) | (x 1,000 €) | |||||||||
Forward contract | 09/12/2019 | 31/03/2020 | Sale | GBP | 1,000 | Purchase | EUR | 1,183 | 0.84532 | 14 |
Forward contract | 09/12/2019 | 28/02/2020 | Purchase | GBP | 538 | Sale | EUR | 638 | 0.84403 | -8 |
TOTAL | 6 | |||||||||
The positive fair value of the hedging instruments in the table above is stated on line I.E. of the assets side of the consolidated balance sheet, the negative fair value is stated on line I.E. of the liabilities side of the balance sheet. The effect of the changes in fair value of these hedging instruments on the Company's equity amounts to +€6 k.
2.2. Sensitivity analysis
The fair value of the hedging instruments is determined by the exchange rate fluctuations on the financial markets. The British pound did not change significantly between 19 December 2019 (when the contracts were concluded) and 31 December 2019.
All else being equal, a positive change of 1% of the exchange rates at the balance sheet date would have had a positive impact on the income statement in the amount of €5 k. A negative change of 1% of the exchange rates would have had a negative impact on the income statement in the same amount.

Note 8: Earnings per share
Earnings per share (« EPS » as defined by IAS 33) are calculated as follows:
31/12/2019 | 31/12/2018 | |
Profit (loss) (Owners of the parent) (x €1,000) | 69,174 | 38,768 |

Basic EPS (in €) | 2.81 | 2.12 |
Diluted EPS (in €) | 2.81 | 2.12 |
The EPRA Earnings* is a performance measure that is not defined by the IFRS standards (see Note 15). Aedifica uses this concept to comply with EPRA recommendations and to monitor operational and financial performance. In Aedifica's case, EPRA Earnings* equals the profit (owners of the parent) after removing exclusively changes in fair value of investment properties (and the movements of deferred taxes related to these), the hedging instruments and the result on the sale of investment properties. It is calculated as follows:
(x €1,000) | 31/12/2019 | 31/12/2018 |
Profit (loss) (Owners of the parent) | 69,174 | 38,768 |

- Gain and losses on disposal of investment properties | -1,268 | 70 |
- Deferred taxes in respect of EPRA adjustments | 3,770 | 1,845 |

Number of share outstanding (excl. treasury shares) | 24,601,158 | 24,601,158 |
Recall that IFRS requires the presentation of the annual accounts before appropriation. The net asset value of €60.16 per share as of 30 June 2019 (as published in the 2018/2019 Annual Financial Report) thus included the dividend distributed in October 2019, and should now be adjusted by €2.20 per share in order to compare with the value as of 31 December 2019. This amount corresponds to the amount of the total dividend (€54 million) divided by the total number of shares outstanding as of 30 June 2019 (24,601,158).

7. Auditors' report (limited review)
Report of the statutory auditor to the shareholders of Aedifica SA on the review of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of 31 December 2019 and for the 6 month period then ended
Introduction
We have reviewed the accompanying interim consolidated balance sheet of Aedifica SA (the 'Company'), and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as 'the Group') as at 31 December 2019 and the related interim consolidated income statement, consolidated statement of comprehensive income, consolidated statement of changes in equity and consolidated cash flow statement for the 6 month period then ended, and explanatory notes, collectively, the 'Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements'. These statements show a consolidated balance sheet total of € 2.728.856 thousand and a consolidated profit for the 6 month period then ended of € 69.301 thousand. Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of these Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting ('IAS 34') as adopted for use in the European Union. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements based on our review.
Scope of Review
We conducted our review in accordance the International Standard on Review Engagements 2410 'Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity' applicable to review engagements. 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 the International Standards on Auditing 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.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Group as at 31 December 2019, and of its financial performance and its cash flows for the 6 month period then ended in accordance with IAS 34.
