PARIS--()--Regulatory News:

Vitura (Paris:VTR):

A unique user experience

Among Vitura’s buildings in use, Europlaza in La Défense and Arcs de Seine in Boulogne Billancourt have been highly attractive during the first semester of 2023, with 11,000 sq.m let, i.e. 8% of the surface area, and of one of the few leases transaction exceeding 5,000 sq.m. Rents reach €500/sq.m/year in Boulogne and €480/sq.m/year in La Défense.

Vitura’s properties provide a standout user experience, particularly notable for the wide range and quality of amenities they offer, the emphasis placed on low-carbon mobility, the building communities that foster tenant relationships, and the wealth of private green spaces.

At June 30, 2023, the occupancy rate stood at 88% for buildings in use and 71% for the entire portfolio (vs. 81% and 68% respectively at December 31, 2022).

Strategic repositioning of assets

Each of the renovation and repositioning projects led by Vitura, whether it concerns indoor or outside spaces, stands out for its originality and high-quality execution, supported by the most creative architects and designers in the industry.

Architecture firm Naço’s complete renovation of Rives de Bercy is proceeding on schedule, with delivery expected in the first quarter of 2024. The project's driving aim is to reduce the property’s carbon footprint as much as possible. By analyzing each material’s life cycle and sourcing materials from the circular economy, emissions from the project are 26 times lower in CO2 compared to a demolition and reinstatement project.

Work to bring the Passy Kennedy and Office Kennedy buildings together within a single 34,000 sq.m campus, located along the Seine in Paris’ wider central business district, will begin on January 1, 2024. The new complex will offer a host of amenities – food service facilities, a gym, wellness and social areas, as well as facilities encouraging low-carbon mobility – and be aligned with the most exacting environmental standards. Discussions are already underway with international banks to secure the financing of the project.

First-half 2023 results

Rental income for the period totaled €25.6 million, compared with €26.9 million for first-half 2022.

EPRA earnings remained stable at €8.3 million in first-half 2023, compared with €8.8 million for the prior-year period.

While pressure on capitalization rates caused fluctuations in office property values at June 30, 2023, the asset management work carried out on Vitura’s assets limited the decline to 4.6%. The value of the Group’s portfolio stood at €1,436 million, compared with €1,506 million at December 31, 2022.

IFRS consolidated net debt came to €825 million at June 30, 2023. The average loan-to-value ratio rose mechanically over the period, at 57.4% at June 30, 2023. At December 31, 2022, 100% of the Group’s debt was hedged, at an average rate of 0.70%, and the Group was compliant with all financial covenants.

Similarly, the market value of the Group's assets has an impact on EPRA NTA, which stood at €670 million or €39.3 per share at end-June 2023, compared with €756 million or €44.3 per share at December 31, 2022. The dividend was paid on May 25, 2023.
