Total Shareholder Return1 of +12% year-on-year, reaching an NTA of €12.49/share

1. Growth in Net Tangible Assets (NTA) up to €6,742m, +17% year-on-year

Colonial closed the first half of 2022 with Net Tangible Assets (NTA) of €12.49/share, corresponding to a year-on-year increase of +10% (+4% in 6 months) which, together with the dividend paid per share of €0.24/share, amounts to a Total Shareholder Return1 of +12% (+6% in 6 months).

  1. Total shareholder return understood as NTA (NAV) growth per share + dividends
  2. Dividends paid and other impacts

In absolute terms, the net value of the assets (NTA) amounts to €6,742m, a year-on-year increase of +17%, and a value increase of more than €968m in a year (+4% in 6 months).

This significant growth in NTA has been achieved thanks to an industrial Real Estate strategy with a significant Alpha component in returns, mainly due to:

  1. A strong increase in the value of the prime asset portfolios in the three markets, driven by a strong demand for prime Grade A buildings.
  2. Solid fundamentals of Colonial's assets with high occupancy levels and solid increases in rental prices.
  3. The successful management of the project pipeline: completed and rented projects, as well as the significant amount of pre-let signings in the project pipeline and the renovation program.
  4. The completion of the renovation program, substantially improving rental levels, as well as the value of the assets.

Strong growth in the net profit and the recurring profit

1. Net profit of €355m, +120% compared to the previous year

The Colonial Group closed the first half of 2022 with a strong increase in the results in all metrics:

  • Increase in the net profit of €355m, +120% compared to the same period of the previous year
  • The recurring net profit increased by +35% compared to the previous year and stood at €76m in the first half of 2022.
  • The net recurring EPS increased +27% compared to the previous year, reaching a level of €14.13cts per share.

The significant increase in the recurring earnings is mainly due to:

  1. The significant advances in the project pipeline and the acceleration of the renovation program, substantially improving rental levels. It is important to highlight the additional income from the projects delivered in 2021: the Diagonal 525 asset (headquarters of Naturgy in the Barcelona CBD) as well as the 83 Marceau asset (headquarters of Goldman Sachs in the Paris CBD).
  2. Solid increases in rental prices of the core portfolio, driven by solid like-for-like growth and the indexation impact captured in the contracts.
  3. A decrease in financial costs thanks to the Liability Management carried out in 2020 and 2021, which has resulted in a saving in the average financial cost of the Group's debt.
  4. The successful execution of the acquisition of the 16.6% stake in Société Foncière Lyonnaise in 2021, with very attractive terms for Colonial's shareholders.
  1. Recurring earnings per share

The additional increase in the Net Profit of the Group is underpinned by the capital gains from the disposals, as well as the growth in value of the Group's portfolio, thanks to its prime positioning.
