THE 1st SEMESTER AT A GLANCE

Occupancy rate

The first semester of 2017 was characterised by excellent results: the RREC (Regulated Real Estate Company) con- tinued developing its portfolio and saw the net result from core activities grow rapidly thanks to the full contribution of past acquisitions and projects completed in 2016.

During this period, the teams have also been working on a major project: moving into our new offices by early July, along with a gradual phasing-out of paper and a move towards a mass digitisation of our processes.

The summer break will have been a short one: an Extraor- dinary General Meeting has been scheduled for 13th of Sep- tember (the required quorum was not met at the meeting of 23rd of August). The meeting will be invited to decide on the acquistion of a new building as part of a contribution in kind resulting from the partial demerger of the company VOP.

In addition, in late August, Home Invest Belgium acquired the shares of the company Investers SA which owns 27 apartments, 4 businesses and 2 office spaces in three buildings in Brussels.

Home Invest Belgium entrusted the valuation of its port- folio to two real estate experts: in a report dated 30th of June 2017, the real estate expert Winssinger & Associés in charge of valuing the entirety of the portfolio except for the Port Zélande site, stated that the investment value of the operated properties (including those intended for sale) amounts to €397,675,000, resulting in a fair value within the meaning of the IFRS standards of € 360,518,000.

The expert BNP Paribas Real Estate tasked with valu- ing the Port Zélande site, stated an investment value of

€ 49,695,000, i.e. a fair value of € 48,720,588.

The fair value of the investment properties in operation is

€ 408.6 million as compared to € 381.3 million 6 months earlier. This growth can be explained by the completion of the development project The Inside and the acquisition of apartments and holiday homes in the Port Zélande holiday village. On a constant portfolio basis, the fair value of the portfolio has increased slightly (+ 1%), in line with changes observed in the market.

The investment properties located in the Brussels-Capital Region currently represent 62.2% of the portfolio, those in the Walloon Region represent 16.6%, those in the Flem- ish Region represent 9.3% and those in the Netherlands represent 11.9%.

The breakdown of this portfolio, calculated on the basis of the fair value of the buildings, is as follows:
