I. Mercialys, the leading REIT for accessible retail: meeting a demand for “shopping for pleasure” combined with price constraints

72% of Mercialys’ shopping centers are positioned in out-of-town areas, which are home to 44%³ of the French population. Since 2005, the Company has recalibrated its portfolio to keep the assets with leading positions in their catchment areas, located around mid-size cities with the best demographic and purchasing power trends.

While the latest economic cycles since the Company was founded in 2005 have been marked by various determining factors, one pivotal element has become established as a permanent feature: price-consciousness among consumers. This focus has been particularly strong since inflation picked up again in 2022.

Alongside this, another constant feature of consumer behavior is the concept of “shopping for pleasure”: going shopping is still a source of satisfaction. This need to accumulate goods is illustrated by the fact that 71%⁴ of respondents said that they enjoy making purchases either systematically, often or occasionally (compared with 66% in March 2022).

Caught between this desire to consume and the need to control their spending, with 41% of households saying that they base their decisions primarily on their purchasing power⁵, shopping center visitors are adapting. Firstly, their preferred retailers include brands with a very clear price positioning: Action, Décathlon and Leroy Merlin are respectively the top three preferred retailers among French consumers⁵. Secondly, they are adapting their behavior, as indicated by 85%⁵ of households looking for promotional offers or switching to less expensive items.

This price-consciousness is also having an impact on French aspirations to consume in a better way. While 95%⁶ of French people would like to consume more responsibly, only 13% say that they have actually changed their habits to move in this direction, primarily due to their financial constraints. Faced with this dilemma, consumers would like brands to adopt better practices on sustainable development issues: for instance, 27%⁵ of French people say that they base their decisions primarily on CSR issues.

Lastly, French people’s concerns about their purchasing power are also marking the political context: ahead of the legislative elections, 58% of the people surveyed said that purchasing power was a decisive factor behind their votes⁷.

Within this paradigm, Mercialys aims to continually adapt its retail mix and establish itself as the real estate market leader for affordable retail across all consumption segments. Illustrating this trend, the opening of the Action store in Aix-en-Provence led to a +29% increase in footfall for this center from December 2023 to June 2024; the inauguration of the Normal store in Annecy is reflected in a +26% increase in this site’s footfall since May 2024; lastly, 4,200 visits over two days highlight the success of the operations carried out with the low-price brands Plantes Pour Tous and Le Goût des Plantes at the Grenoble and Toulouse sites.

Lastly, the takeover of hypermarkets previously operated by the Casino group by Intermarché, Carrefour and Auchan (ranking 2^nd, 4^th and 8^th respectively in the top 100 leading retail brands in France⁸) fully supports this offering of affordable local services. Hypermarkets play a key role in limiting the impact of food costs on household budgets, thanks in particular to their own private labels.

II. Finalization of hypermarket takeovers in progress: enhanced sites’ attractiveness and risk profile for Mercialys

The changes to the hypermarket banners anchoring Mercialys’ shopping centers, which began in the fourth quarter of 2023, were successfully completed during the first half of 2024.

On June 22, 2024, the Casino group indicated that it had signed a unilateral preliminary purchase agreement concerning the sale of the subsidiary operating its activities in Corsica, including the stores owned by Mercialys, with Auchan Retail France and the Rocca group. The completion of this operation remains subject to various administrative procedures, including approval from the competition authorities.

On July 2, 2024, Mercialys announced the disposal of four hypermarkets in which it had a 51% interest, with the remaining 49% owned by a fund managed by BNP Paribas REIM, as well as ancillary lots belonging to the Company, for a total net sales price of Euro 117.5 million. These hypermarkets were operated by Auchan.

Thus, at end-June 2024, proforma for the sale of business operations to Auchan in Corsica and the disposal of the four hypermarkets, Mercialys’ rental exposure⁹ shows a weighting of 15.9% for large food stores, representing a foundation of revenues indexed against a recurrent consumption segment making a positive contribution to the Company’s risk profile. This risk profile also benefits from limited exposure of around 5% of economic rental income to the individual retailers making the biggest contributions, i.e. Intermarché and Auchan. This breakdown could see minor changes depending on the decisions taken by the competition authorities.

Retailer – mass food retail	Ranking – main retailers in France 8	Dec 31, 2023 % of rental revenues (economic vision)	Jun 30, 2024 % of rental revenues (economic vision)	Jun 30, 2024 % of rental revenues (economic vision - proforma)
Intermarché	2nd	0.7%	5.4%	5.6%
Auchan	8th	0.0%	4.3%	5.1%
Carrefour Hypermarchés	4th	0.0%	2.1%	2.1%
Monoprix	14th	1.5%	1.6%	1.6%
Casino Hypermarchés	34th	15.3%	4.7%	1.2%
Aldi	11th	0.2%	0.2%	0.2%
Lidl	6th	0.1%	0.1%	0.1%
TOTAL		17.8%	18.4%	15.9%

These new food anchors will consolidate the overall strong positioning of Mercialys’ sites in their catchment areas and could generate interest from non-food retailers looking for new locations. Through the footfall generated, they will also help improve the outlook for Mercialys’ Casual Leasing business. Lastly, the Company will hold discussions with the operators to explore the possibility of reducing the size of their hypermarkets to further strengthen the sites by creating mid-size stores and achieving rental reversion.

III. Operational performance reflecting a solid retail sector in France

For the year to end-June 2024, footfall¹⁰ at Mercialys shopping centers is up +2.0%, outperforming the Quantaflow national index (+1.3%) by +70bp.

This excellent trend is particularly satisfactory considering the number of disruptive factors that affected footfall during the first half of 2024: the attrition affecting supplies for the hypermarkets operated by Casino prior to the transfer of business operations, the organization of liquidation sales, and the subsequent closure of these hypermarkets for two to three weeks.

The opening of these stores under their new banners, primarily in May and June 2024, was recognized with strong footfall levels, driven specifically by the proactive price reduction policies applied by the three retailers, as well as their more attractive and well-stocked supplies.

The following table illustrates, through a few examples, the new dynamics for hypermarkets:

Sites	New food retailer	Change in hypermarket footfall between their reopening date and June 30, 2024
Fréjus	Auchan	+31.5%
Istres	Auchan	+38.4%
Lanester	Carrefour	+13.9%
Narbonne	Auchan	+35.2%
Quimper	Intermarché	+36.4%
Annecy	Auchan	+50.6%
Marseille La Valentine	Auchan	+36.1%
Saint Etienne	Auchan	+25.8%

Alongside this, for the year to end-May 2024, retailer sales in the Company’s shopping centers saw +3.4% growth, outpacing the FACT national index’s +1.7% increase by 170bp.

The occupancy cost ratio¹¹ shows a very sustainable level of 10.9% at end-June 2024, slightly higher than December 31, 2023 (10.7%), linked to the impact of indexation on rents, and identical to the level from June 30, 2023 (10.9%).

The current financial vacancy rate¹² - which excludes strategic vacancies following decisions to facilitate the deployment of extension and redevelopment plans - came to 3.0% for the first half of 2024, showing an improvement compared with end-June 2023 (3.3%) and virtually stable in relation to December 31, 2023 (2.9%).

The first half of 2024 saw a sustained level of lettings activity, contributing to this limited vacancy rate. Against a backdrop of sustained indexation, the reversion rate on renewals and relettings came to -0.2%. This rate does not take into account the reletting of a mid-size unit, previously leased to H&M, in Marseille La Valentine to Intersport, which had an impact of -2.7%. This operation contributes to this shopping center’s repositioning around sport, further strengthening the selection of retailers available in this segment, which already includes Sport 2000, the official Olympique de Marseille football club store, Foot Locker and Courir.

In the consumption environment described above, the beauty / health and culture / gifts / sports sectors continue to be particularly buoyant, once again thanks to the momentum generated by affordable retailers in particular.
Mercialys has continued to adapt its retail mix in line with these underlying trends, illustrated by the relettings secured during the first half of this year. Out of the 40 transactions completed during this period, sectors covering discretionary spending - personal items and household equipment - accounted for 12 of the leases signed (30%), compared with 28 for day-to-day retailers (70%). 50% of the retail mix prior to these relettings was made up of discretionary spending-related retailers, with a 20% reduction in the weighting for these segments.

IV. Half-year results in line with the Company’s steady long-term growth trajectory

Invoiced rents climbed to Euro 91.4 million, up +4.0% on a current basis. Organic growth ¹³ in rental income came to +4.1% for the first half of 2024, benefiting from a still sustained indexation effect of +4.4% and the contribution by variable rents for +0.2%.

	Year to end-June 2023		Year to end-June 2024
Indexation	+3.8 pp	+€3.2m	+4.4 pp	+€3.9m
Contribution by Casual Leasing	-0.2 pp	-€0.2m	-0.2 pp	-€0.1m
Contribution by variable rents	+1.7 pp	+€1.4m	+0.2 pp	+€0.2m
Actions carried out on the portfolio	-1.5 pp	-€1.3m	-0.5 pp	-€0.4m
Accounting impact of “Covid-19 rent relief” granted to retailers	+0.5 pp	+€0.4m	+0.1 pp	+€0.1m
Like-for-like growth	+4.2 pp	+€3.6m	+4.1 pp	+€3.6m
Asset acquisition and sales	-2.0 pp	-€1.7m	0.0 pp	€0.0m
Other effects	-0.1 pp	-€0.1m	-0.1 pp	-€0.1m
Growth on a current basis	+2.1 pp	+€1.8m	+4.0 pp	+€3.5m

Rental revenues came to Euro 91.6 million, up +3.9% from the first half of 2023, reflecting the changes in invoiced rents and the contraction in lease rights and despecialization indemnities.

Net rental income is up +5.9% to Euro 87.4 million, reflecting the growth in rental revenues and the good control over the ratio of non-recovered service charges.

EBITDA came to Euro 76.1 million, up +5.2% from June 30, 2023. The EBITDA margin represents 83.1% (vs. 82.0% at June 30, 2023 and 83.9% at December 31, 2023).

The net financial expenses used to calculate net recurrent earnings¹⁴ totaled Euro -14.4 million at June 30, 2024, compared with Euro -13.7 million at end-June 2023. This limited increase takes into account the fixed/floating rate products extinguished, while the higher cost of commercial paper is more than offset by the proceeds from cash investments. As a result, the real average cost of drawn debt remained under control at 2.2% for the first half of 2024, down -10bp from end-December 2023 and up +10bp over 12 months (2.1% at end-June 2023).

Other operating income and expenses (excluding capital gains or losses on disposals and impairment) represent Euro 1.2 million of income (versus Euro 3.4 million of net income for the first half of 2023), linked primarily to the impact of the net reversals of provisions.

Tax represents a Euro -0.2 million expense at end-June 2024, compared with Euro -0.3 million for the first half of 2023. This amount corresponds primarily to a CVAE corporate value-added tax expense.

The share of net income from associates and joint ventures (excluding capital gains or losses, amortization and impairment) totaled Euro 1.7 million at June 30, 2024, down -3.8% from June 30, 2023, linked in particular to the change in financing conditions for the SCI AMR scope, offsetting the positive impact of indexation on rental income for these companies.

Non-controlling interests (excluding capital gains or losses, amortization and impairment) came to Euro -5.7 million at June 30, 2024, compared with Euro -5.4 million for the first half of 2023.

In view of these items, net recurrent earnings (NRE 14) are up +3.3% from June 30, 2023 to Euro 59.3 million, with a +3.0% increase to Euro 0.63 per share ¹⁵.

V. Slight upturn in the portfolio value and financial structure supporting a resumption of investments

At end-June 2024, Mercialys’ portfolio mainly comprised 47 shopping centers ¹⁷, with an average size of 16,220 sq.m and average value of Euro 61.0 million.

Mercialys’ portfolio value came to Euro 2,879.4 million including transfer taxes, up +0.3% like-for-like over the first half of 2024. The appraisal value excluding transfer taxes is up +0.4% like-for-like, with the positive impact of rental income (+2.3%) offsetting the impact of a slight increase in rates.

		Current basis		Like-for-like 18
	Appraisal value at Jun 30, 2024	Change over last 6 months	Change over last 12 months	Change over last 6 months	Change over last 12 months
Value excluding transfer taxes	2,700.0	+0.3%	-3.6%	+0.4%	-3.4%
Value including transfer taxes	2,879.4	+0.3%	-3.6%	+0.3%	-3.4%

The average appraisal yield rate was 6.68% at June 30, 2024, showing a limited increase of +7bp compared with end-December 2023 (6.61%) and up +47bp from June 30, 2023 (6.21%). This average rate shows a positive yield spread of over 340bp compared with the risk-free rate (10-year OAT) at end-June.

The EPRA net asset value indicators are as follows:

	EPRA NRV			EPRA NTA			EPRA NDV
	Jun 30, 2023	Dec 31, 2023	Jun 30, 2024	Jun 30, 2023	Dec 31, 2023	Jun 30, 2024	Jun 30, 2023	Dec 31, 2023	Jun 30, 2024
€/share	19.03	18.25	17.80	16.99	16.29	15.85	18.80	17.10	16.53
Change over 6 months	-7.4%	-4.1%	-2.5%	-7.8%	-4.1%	-2.7%	-10.2%	-9.1%	-3.3%

EPRA NDV (Net Disposal Value) down -3.3% over six months to Euro 16.53.

The Euro -0.57 per share change for the first half of this year takes into account the following impacts:

- Dividend payment: Euro -0.99;
- Net recurrent earnings: Euro +0.63;
- Change in unrealized capital gains¹⁹: Euro -0.04, including a yield effect for Euro -0.57, a rent effect for Euro +0.67 and other effects²⁰ for Euro -0.14;
- Change in fair value of fixed-rate debt: Euro -0.13;
- Change in fair value of derivatives and other items: Euro -0.04.

Alongside this, Mercialys continues to benefit from a very solid financial structure, with an LTV ratio excluding transfer taxes²¹ of 40.0% at June 30, 2024 (compared with 38.9% at December 31, 2023 and 38.6% at June 30, 2023) and an LTV ratio including transfer taxes of 37.4% (versus 36.4% at December 31, 2023 and 36.1% at June 30, 2023). Proforma for the sale of the hypermarkets as presented above, the LTV excluding transfer taxes would come to 39.4%, while the ratio including transfer taxes would come to 36.9%.

The ICR was 5.5x ²² at June 30, 2024, compared with 5.1x at December 31, 2023 and 5.2x at June 30, 2023.

No drawn financing lines are due to mature before February 2026, with the exception of Euro 42 million of commercial paper (out of a total program with Euro 500 million to potentially be used). Mercialys also has Euro 385 million of undrawn financial resources, enabling it to benefit from a very satisfactory level of liquidity. The maturity of 57% of these lines was extended during the first half of 2024.
Over the coming months, and subject to market conditions, Mercialys aims to finalize the early refinancing of the bond maturity due in July 2027, either through the exercise of its make-whole call option or by other means, which would require the issuance of new financing.

The Company is capitalizing on this very healthy financial structure to invest, either through its development pipeline (as detailed below), or through targeted asset acquisitions. A highly selective approach will be applied to trigger these investments, in terms of both real estate fundamentals (location, rental exposure, potential energy consumption optimization) and financial fundamentals, requiring a minimum yield of 7%.

Over the past few months, the Company’s projects have made progress with pre-lettings. In Saint-André (Reunion Island), the 13,000 sq.m retail park to potentially be developed on Mercialys’ land reserve sites is 63% pre-let, with this progress supporting the target to submit a building permit application during the fourth quarter of 2024. Similarly, in Sainte-Marie (Reunion Island), the pre-letting of the extension offering over 11,000 sq.m of space in the shopping center has only just begun, but is already up to 12%, while advanced expressions of interest have been received representing 35% of the expected rental income, and the building permit application is also scheduled to be submitted by the first quarter of 2025. The Valence 2 center redevelopment project is 47% pre-let, with the application for administrative approvals expected to be submitted during the fourth quarter of 2024. Lastly, the project to redevelop the older section of the Toulouse shopping center has also been launched and the requests for administrative approvals are expected to be submitted during the fourth quarter of 2024.
