5.1.2 Notes to the consolidated financial statements

Note 1 Information on the Company and significant developments

1.1 Presentation

Nexity is a global real estate operator harnessing the entire spectrum of property knowhow and skills to serve private individuals, companies, institutional investors and local authorities. Covering all segments of the real estate development and services markets, Nexity is one of the top players in French real estate and offers its clients a unique range of expertise and advice, products, services and solutions to meet their evolving needs.

The Group is present throughout France, with some limited operations elsewhere in Europe.

It is organised around the following three business divisions:

  • The Development division, which includes the following activities:
    • Residential real estate development, including the development of new homes and subdivisions in France, urban regeneration and, to a lesser extent, development in other European countries, and
    • Commercial real estate development, corresponding to the development of office buildings, business parks, logistics platforms, shops and hotels;
  • The Services division including:
    • Property management (property management and transactions for individuals and companies);

    • Distribution (marketing of real estate products); and
  • The Other activities division, which includes investment activities and the holding company.

Nexity's shares are listed on Eurolist by NYSE Euronext Paris.

1.2 Significant developments

The 2023 fiscal year was marked by the following events:

Business activity - Nexity outperforms the market

  • New home reservations: -19% in volume in a market down by 26% yearonyear and by 41% over two years; and
  • Continued strong growth in serviced real estate with revenue up 25%.

A busy 2023 to refocus the Group's roadmap

  • Pivot towards urban regeneration:
    • first market deal with Carrefour and creation of the property venture, jointly owned by Carrefour (80%) and Nexity (20%). This is classified under equityaccounted investments. The revenue expected at completion on property development activities thanks to this partnership will be in excess of €2 billion over 10 years, and
    • launch of Nexity Héritage, a property development brand specialising in urban regeneration, and partnership with Mirabaud AM to develop property venture operations.
  • Disposal of international activities:
    • Disposal of activities in Poland and Portugal.
  • Strategic and financial partnerships:
    • In December 2023, Nexity entered into exclusive negotiations to sell its Services to Individuals business to Bridgepoint for an enterprise value of
      €440 million. The transaction is expected to close in the 1st half of 2024. In this respect, assets and liabilities of discontinued operations are presented on specific lines of the assets and liabilities of the consolidated statement of financial position under the headings "Assets held for sale" and "Liabilities held for sale" in accordance with IFRS 5 Operations held for disposal (Note 3.2.3).

GENERAL INFORMATION

Note 2 General principles

2.1 Statement of compliance

The consolidated financial statements of Nexity group as at 31 December 2023 are prepared in accordance with IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards) and the interpretations and decisions of the IFRS IC (IFRS Interpretations Committee) as adopted in the European Union.

The accounting policies and principles applied to the consolidated financial statements at 31 December 2023 are identical to those used for the consolidated financial statements for fiscal year ended 31 December 2022, except for the points described in 2.2.

FINANCIAL REPORT

Consolidated financial statements at 31 December 2023

The Company's press releases and annual reports - including historical financial information about the Company and the consolidated financial statements - are available on the Company's website www.nexity.fr/en/ group. Copies may also be obtained from Nexity's registered office at 19, rue de Vienne - TSA 50029 - 75801 Paris Cedex 8 (France).

The consolidated financial statements were approved

by

5

the Board of Directors on 28 February 2024 and will

be

submitted for approval at the Shareholders' Meeting of 23 May 2024.

2.2 New IFRS IC standards, interpretations and decisions

Pillar 2 or GloBE rules (finance law December 2023)

The aim of the "Global AntiBase Erosion Rules" ("GloBE Rules" or "Pillar 2") is to ensure that groups of companies with revenue of at least €750 million are taxed at an effective rate of 15%.

To this end, these groups must determine, in each jurisdiction in which they operate, their effective GloBE tax rate and, if this is lower than the minimum rate, pay an additional tax.

No deferred tax in respect of Pillar 2 is recognised in the Group's financial statements at 31 December 2023 as a result of the application of the mandatory temporary

exemption introduced by the amendment to IAS 12 (published by the IASB on 23 May 2023, adopted by the EU on 8 November 2023) and applicable for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2023.

In order to be as well prepared as possible for compliance with the new Pillar 2 obligations, the Group has followed OECD publications and legislative developments in the jurisdictions in which it operates. At this stage of our work, we consider that no significant additional tax cost is expected.

The other standards, amendments and interpretations adopted by the European Union in 2023 had no impact on the financial statements.

2.3 Estimates and assumptions

In the process of preparing the consolidated financial statements, the measurement of certain statement of financial position and income statement items calls for the use of assumptions or assessments based, in particular, on budgets for real estate projects. These are used to measure the operating margin, noncurrent assets, provisions, inventory impairment and accrued expenses, as well as the assets held for sale and the associated liabilities. Other items also require the use of estimates based on assumptions regarding business plans, or changes in the rates applied, and include provisions, goodwill, and put options granted to minority shareholders.

These assumptions, estimates or assessments are established and reviewed regularly on the basis of information available and the actual position of the Company on the date the financial statements are prepared, taking into consideration past experience and other relevant factors. Actual results may differ significantly from estimates due to changes in the underlying conditions and assumptions.

The assumptions, estimates and assessments used to prepare the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023 were made in the context of the real estate market crisis (sharp rise in interest rates impacting the purchasing power of real estate buyers, the announced end of the Pinel scheme, the scarcity of land, and changes of commercial property usage, etc.).

Nevertheless, in the medium term, basic housing needs in France will support demand and the Group's activity.

In addition, the Group's financial statements include the identified effects of issues and risks related to climate change. Given its activities, ESG (environmental, social and governance) issues are an essential part of Nexity group's growth and are factored into its financial decisions.

The Group is developing an ambitious strategy for a lowcarbon, resilient city, helping to speed up the environmental transition in the real estate sector.

Nexity / UNIVERSAL REGISTRATION DOCUMENT 2023 / 253

  • FINANCIAL REPORT
    Consolidated financial statements at 31 December 2023
    These commitments are reflected in the financial statements by:
  • Including the costs of complying with certain building design and construction criteria into the real estate development programme budgets;

Using methods to measure goodwill that rely on projected target margins for operations, including the costs described above; and

  • Including a carbon footprint reduction criterion in variable remuneration targets for executives and free share plans.

Taking climate risk into account did not represent an issue for the managerial estimates made for the preparation of the financial statements.

2.4 Reporting date

Group companies are consolidated on the basis of their financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2023.

Note 3 Scope of reporting and business combinations

3.1 Consolidation and reporting

Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. Control exists when the Group has power over the entity, has rights to variable returns from its involvement with the entity, and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity.

In assessing control, potential voting rights that the Group is able in practice to exercise are taken into account.

The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.

Associates and joint ventures

Associates are entities in which the Group has significant influence, but not control, over financial and operating policies.

Joint ventures are entities over whose activities the Group has joint control, established by contractual agreement. Most joint ventures are real estate development programmes (residential or commercial) undertaken with another developer (joint ventures).

The consolidated financial statements include the Group share of the total recognised gains and losses of associates and joint ventures on an equityaccounted basis, from the date that significant influence or joint control commences until the date that significant influence or joint control ceases.

Transactions eliminated in the consolidated financial statements

The following are eliminated:

  • intragroup receivables and payables; and
  • intragroup balances and transactions (purchases, sales, dividends, internal margins, provisions recorded against consolidated companies, etc.).

3.2.2 Changes in scope

The number of consolidated companies was virtually stable at 2,124 companies, compared to 2,128 at 31 December 2022.

The deconsolidation of 65 companies is mainly due to the removal of completed real estate programmes that have become inactive.

61 companies were added to the scope of reporting during the fiscal year. These are mainly companies created to support the Group's real estate projects and companies resulting from external growth.

The Group carries out its new real estate projects in multiprogramme companies, which explains the lower number of creations.

3.2.3 Assets and liabilities held for sale

A noncurrent asset or a group of directly related assets and liabilities is considered to be held for sale when its carrying amount will be recovered mainly through a sale and not through continued use. For this to be the case, the asset must be available for immediate sale and its sale must be highly probable.

To assess the highly probable nature of the transaction, the Group considers, on a casebycase basis, the decision and authorisation process, the reasonableness and acceptability of the proposed price, as well as the market conditions and legal, regulatory and social constraints.

These assets or groups held for sale are valued at the lower of the carrying amount and the estimated sale price, net of disposal costs. They are no longer subject to depreciation. The associated assets and liabilities held for sale are presented on specific lines of the consolidated balance sheet.

FINANCIAL REPORT

Consolidated financial statements at 31 December 2023

When the group of assets held for sale constitutes on its own a presented reporting segment, i.e. a business line, or is part of a coordinated plan to dispose of a business line, it is then treated as a discontinued operation, and as such, the net profit and each category of cash flows are presented on dedicated lines of the income statement and consolidated statement of cash flows.

In December 2023, Nexity entered into exclusive negotiations to sell its Services to Individuals business to Bridgepoint for an enterprise value of €440 million.

Since these property management (ADB) activities do not

constitute a business line, they are not treated as

discontinued operations. The income statement has not

5

been restated. However, given the probable sale within 12

months and the material nature of the assets and liabilities

of these companies, they are presented at 31 December 2023 on specific lines under assets and liabilities on the consolidated statement of financial position.
