I. AFFIRMATION OF A HIGH-PERFORMING MODEL

French people’s appetite for consumption continued in 2025 but was even more polarized.
Now repositioned in terms of its concept and refocused on leading assets in France’s most dynamic metropolitan areas, our portfolio has become a powerful performance accelerator.

1. OUR PORTFOLIO TRANSFORMATION: FROM CONVENIENCE CENTER TO SHOP•PARK

Mercialys anticipated very early on the polarization of retail around leading sites in each catchment area and rolled out a deep transformation of its real estate model by successfully moving away from the convenience center segment.
This repositioning was nearly completed in 2025, with a portfolio now comprised of 34 strategic sites that are leaders or co-leaders in their catchment areas, and which represent 96% of the total asset value and 88% of its total surface area.
The 5-year target is to have more than 95% of our assets ranked as leaders in their catchment area with at least 3 million visitors per year (versus 70% in 2025).
This polarization, which is also geographical, has guided our portfolio refocus around coastal and cross-border regions in some of France’s most dynamic regional hubs, such as Marseille, Aix-en-Provence, Toulouse, Rennes and Grenoble. Our network is anchored in catchment areas benefiting from population trends that are significantly higher than the national average or have recurring flows of tourists.

To support this retail and real estate evolution, Mercialys has developed a pioneering hybrid format, which it has rolled out across the French market. Its new Shop•Park visual identity was unveiled when it celebrated its 20th anniversary in October. The Shop•Park concept combines the extensive and diverse offering of a shopping mall, the economic efficiency and effectively controlled costs of a retail park, and the immediate accessibility of a neighborhood center.

The Group prioritizes assets that meet contemporary expectations: clarity of the offering, speed of the customer journey, protection of purchasing power, and strong local roots, with a “right-sized” format designed to attract consumers’ favorite brands to capture a significant percentage of visitor flows in each asset’s catchment area. Our Shop•Park include between 50 and 150 retailers, compared with an average of around 15 in traditional convenience centers, and their retail mix is designed around the leading banners in each segment.
The focus across the portfolio continues to be retailers that are renowned for their accessible pricing, a catalyst for purchases, and is built around a targeted commercial strategy in line with consumption habits and their evolution.

In 2025, it was rolled out by:

  • renewing the foodservice offering, with more than 10 new leases signed: Paradis du Fruit (first in the portfolio), Hippopotamus (x2), Volfoni (first), Dreams Donuts, Miss Cookies and Club Café;
  • diversifying the range of grocery retailers: Grand Frais, Leclerc and Lidl (x2);
    2025 was marked by the finalization of the full rotation of the food operators anchoring Mercialys’ shopping parks.
  • ramping up the healthcare offering: five pharmacy and drugstore outlets signed;
  • developing a diverse leisure offering: Escape Sensas, Monky and Fitness Park across more than 10,000 sq.m;
  • supporting current trends for affordable fashion, beauty and pet retail: Primark (first in the portfolio), Aroma-Zone (first), Tedi (first), Only, North Face (first), Normal (x4), Adopt (x3), Biotech USA and Kiko;
  • supporting changes in formats among retailers: New Yorker, Adidas, Mango and Adopt.

These commercial operations are benefiting from the support of a multi-local marketing approach on social media, which proved its effectiveness in 2025 by generating 417 million views, a record level of digital visibility for Mercialys. Illustrating this capacity to make an impact, the Geev Shop operation in Angers achieved more than one million views locally, with over 18 million views on YouTube for the Intersport store in Sainte Marie Duparc, and more than five million views for the Jul Store opening in Marseille.

2. OUR SHOP•PARK CONCEPT BRINGS TOGETHER THE CORE PILLARS FOR SUSTAINABLE OUTPERFORMANCE

The operational performance levels recorded across the portfolio in 2025 show the relevance of our model and the commercial and marketing strategies supporting it:

  • footfall at sites across our portfolio increased by +3.9% over 12 months to end-December 2025, outperforming the change in the Quantaflow national panel (up +0.9%) by +300bp;
  • Shop•Park retailer sales increased by +2.6% over 12 months;
    significantly outperforming the FACT national index (down -0.2%) by +280bp;
  • The occupancy cost ratio3 is stable at 10.9%;
  • The diversification of the portfolio ensures structural resilience: the top 10 tenants (excluding food retail) account for 15% of rental income, and no single retailer is intended to represent more than 3% of rents.

Robust operational indicators, driven by an acceleration in lettings activity (+10% vs 2024), are paving the way for sustainable rental revenue growth:

  1. Organic growth in invoiced rents came to +2.8%4,
  2. The 2025 reversion rate increased year-on-year to +2.2% on the leases signed during the year,
  3. Current financial vacancy rate5 shows a historically low level of 2.0% at end-December 2025,
  4. The collection rate for rent and charges at end-December 2025 reached a record level of 97.8%.

3. BUSINESS MODEL ENSURING SUSTAINABLE NRE GROWTH

Invoiced rents increased by +0.5% to Euro 180.1 million, benefiting from sustained organic growth, partially offset by the prorata impact of asset disposals completed in 2024. Rental revenues climbed to Euro 180.6 million, up +0.6%.

EBITDA came to Euro 148.9 million, up +1.2% from 2024, factoring in the acquisition of the Saint-Genis 2 center in June 2025, offset by the disposals completed during the second half of 2024. The EBITDA margin remains high at 82.4% (+40bp vs 2024).

Net recurrent earnings (NRE) totaled Euro 117.5 million (+3.9% vs 2024). NRE is also up +3.9% per share to Euro 1.26, at the upper end of the revised guidance range, announced halfway through the year, for Euro 1.24 to Euro 1.27 per share.

II. SOLID BALANCE SHEET SUPPORTING EXTERNAL GROWTH

1. PORTFOLIO VALUE UP +10.1% IN 2025 (+2.1% LIKE-FOR-LIKE)

The portfolio value came to Euro 3,041.1 million including transfer taxes, up +10.1% over 12 months on a current basis. The appraisal value including transfer taxes is up +2.1% like-for-like, driven by the robust rental trends and the portfolio’s sound fundamentals (positive impact of rental income for +2.0%), offsetting the impact of a slight increase in rates.
The average appraisal yield rate was 6.65% at December 31, 2025, stable over 12 months. This change shows a positive yield spread of over 300bp compared with the risk-free rate (10-year OAT) at end-December.

2. VERY SOUND FINANCIAL STRUCTURE

In June 2025, Mercialys carried out a Euro 300 million bond issue, with a 7-year maturity and 4.0% coupon. It is intended to enable the redemption of the Euro 300 million bond maturing in February 2026, with a 1.8% coupon. In the meantime, the cash generated by this issue has been invested under good conditions. At end-December 2025, the average maturity of drawn debt was 3.5 years, compared with 3.8 years at end-2024. In addition, Mercialys maintained a high level of fixed-rate debt hedging of 89% at end-2025.

Mercialys’ financial position at December 31, 2025 continued to be very healthy and satisfied all the covenants included in the various credit agreements.

The LTV ratio excluding transfer taxes11 came to 40.2% at December 31, 2025 (38.2% at December 31, 2024) reflecting the acquisitions detailed hereafter and showing an improvement of 230bp versus June 30, 2025. This level is well below the banking covenant of 55% that applies to all the confirmed bank lines. The LTV ratio including transfer taxes was 37.4% on the same date (versus 39.6% at June 30, 2025 and 35.7% at December 31, 2024). These ratios do not include the lease financing for the Saint- Genis asset for Euro 64.6 million, with this financing not recognized as net financial debt. Taking into account this item, the LTV represents 39.5% (including transfer taxes) and 42.4% (excluding transfer taxes).
The ICR was 4.9x12 at December 31, 2025, compared with 5.5x at December 31, 2024 and 5.7x at June 30, 2025, significantly higher than the minimum level of at least 2x set by the bank covenants.

On October 17, 2025, Standard & Poor’s confirmed its BBB / stable outlook rating for Mercialys.

III. SELECTIVE INVESTMENTS TO FURTHER STRENGTHEN THE PORTFOLIO

The Company aims to achieve growth while maintaining its strict framework, built around a sound balance sheet and associated indicators and its demands for a yield that is significantly higher than the portfolio’s current average yield.

1. PHASED IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PROJECT PIPELINE BASED ON STRINGENT CRITERIA

At end-2025, Mercialys’ pipeline of projects likely to be deployed over the medium term totaled nearly Euro 400 million, with the committed section representing around Euro 30 million. This pipeline, concentrated in the four geographical hubs that Mercialys’ real estate footprint is focused on, will be able to be rolled out with a phased approach, in terms of both the amounts concerned and the timeframes. All of these projects aiming to improve the quality of the portfolio must meet a strict and ambitious criterion for the return on capital employed of at least 8%.
To date, Mercialys is moving forward with projects based on three types of objectives: (1) strengthening / restructuring existing sites, (2) extending existing sites, and (3) developing new Shop•Park on controlled land banks:

  1. Strengthening / restructuring existing Shop•Park in:
    • Toulouse: last phase of restructuring the older section of the mall, with an opening expected for the end of the second half of 2026, designed to enhance the site’s attractiveness by welcoming new key mid-size stores (B&M and Fitness Park). Over time, this project will support net rental income growth of around 8%;
    • Brest: following an agreement reached with the Casino group, the hypermarket was taken over by Leclerc, with the simultaneous opening of mid-size toy and drugstore units on December 4, 2025; first phase delivered in 14 months and on budget, generating an increase in footfall by around +50% in December 2025; the openings of Normal and Grand Frais will further enhance this site in the second half of 2026. In addition, a sales commitment covering the areas occupied by Leclerc was included in the agreements signed. It requires the operator Leclerc to acquire its volumes between July 1, 2026 and June 30, 2027;
    • Niort: restructuring of the former Casino hypermarket through leases signed with New Yorker, Normal, Monky and Lidl; 90% of the former hypermarket’s space has been relet, with deliveries scheduled for the second quarter of 2026.
  2. Extension of existing Shop•Park in:
    • Angers: fulfillment of all the conditions precedent under the preliminary sales agreement signed in 2024 relating to a 16,000 sq.m land bank adjacent to one of the portfolio’s best-performing Shop•Park; project with development potential of around 25,000 sq.m, including nearly 15,000 sq.m of retail, foodservice and leisure space, within a mixed-use district also including residential and office units. Over time, this project will help drive an increase in net rents for this asset of around 15%;
    • Grenoble: restructuring and extension of the leasable area in the site’s covered section to accommodate new mid-size units; administrative approvals obtained, with work scheduled to begin in the first half of 2026; project pre-let for around 80% and expected to increase net rent by around +20%.
  3. Development of new Shop•Park sites in:
    • Saint-André (Reunion Island): business park project developed on land reserves owned by Mercialys, representing a total of 15,000 sq.m (of which 11,000 sq.m of retail), with more than 80% pre-let, while the building permit is in the final clearance phase; opening scheduled in 2027, projected yield on cost expected to be over 8.5%;
    • Saint-Denis (Paris Region): operation in partnership with the developer Telamon on a site that is fully owned by Mercialys, for which the administrative approvals required for the project have been obtained; however, following appeals filed by local residents’ associations against the building permit, proceedings are under review by France’s Council of State (Conseil d'État). Following the operation, Mercialys will continue to own all of the renovated and restructured retail units;
    • Ferney-Voltaire (Geneva area): co-development of a mixed-use project of around 17,000 sq.m located in a dynamic cross-border area with high purchasing power levels between France and Switzerland; preliminary sales agreement concerning the acquisition of the land signed at end-2025; expressions of interest already obtained for more than 80% of the leasable area. Work is expected to start up in early 2028, with an opening scheduled for 2029 and the project to achieve over 8.0% profitability.

2. REPLICABLE ACQUISITION STRATEGY BUILT AROUND SOLID VALUE CREATION

Mercialys resumed an active investment policy in 2025 in line with the Company's strict criteria: an accretive impact on net recurrent earnings, real estate fundamentals aligned with Mercialys’ format, sustainability and geographic positioning, and value creation potential over the medium term.

Two real estate asset acquisitions, representing a combined total of Euro 176 million and an average yield of 9%, were completed in June and July 2025 respectively:

  • Acquisition of the Saint-Genis 2 shopping center, a leading site in western Lyon, with a catchment area of 700,000 inhabitants. This site meets Mercialys’ requirements thanks to its size (100 stores and restaurants over more than 18,000 sq.m), its leading regional position, and its potential for optimizing the retail mix and formats;
  • Acquisition of the 49% stake not previously held in the company Hyperthetis, which owned 66,000 sq.m of rental space across five sites.

In March 2025, Mercialys also acquired the remaining 70% stake in the investment management company ImocomPartners. In addition to the fees generated by the fund under management (Euro 670 million, dedicated to retail parks), this investment management company aims to develop new vehicles focused in priority on retail real estate. Mercialys could subscribe to such funds while ensuring strict compliance with the regulations preventing conflicts of interest.

In 2026, Mercialys aims to continue with its targeted policy to acquire existing retail real estate assets. These investments will be focused on leading sites, or on sites with clear leadership potential in their catchment areas, supported by solid real estate fundamentals, with significant additional value creation expected.
The investment volume being considered using the Group’s cash resources would be around Euro 100 million, while maintaining an opportunistic approach depending on the projects, with a strict yield criterion of at least 7%.

IV. SIGNIFICANT PROGRESS WITH THE CSR STRATEGY 4 FAIR IMPACTS FOR 2030, INCLUDING A STRENGTHENED CARBON TRAJECTORY MOVING TOWARDS A NET ZERO TARGET

Mercialys’ positioning as a CSR leader was recognized with several industry distinctions and ratings in 2025. For instance, the Company rejoined CDP’s A List, which recognizes the companies that are most committed to tackling climate change. It also maintained its GRESB Green Star status and was recognized as an ESG Top Rated Company and Low Carbon Transition Leader by Sustainalytics.
In 2025, Mercialys continued rolling out its 10-year CSR strategy, 4 Fair Impacts for 2030, and passed some new key milestones, confirming the integration of environmental, social and governance considerations at the heart of its model.

During the year, several major achievements can be highlighted:

  • A -27% reduction in scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions per sq.m compared with 2024;
  • An average waste recovery rate of 73%, reflecting the ramp-up of recycling solutions;
  • The BREEAM In-Use certification of 100% of the strategic centers, with an average rating of 73.8% for Part 2;
  • The rollout of dedicated employment operations at 71% of the centers, supporting strong local roots;
  • A workplace gender equality index rating of 96/100;
  • A governance structure aligned with the market’s highest standards, notably supported by a Board of Directors composed of 78% independent directors.

Lastly, Mercialys has confirmed its pioneering role in decarbonizing retail real estate, with its Net Zero trajectory certified by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) in August 2025, under the buildings sector standard using a “Whole Building” approach.

V. 2025 DIVIDEND, 2026 OBJECTIVES AND MEDIUM-TERM OUTLOOK

1. DIVIDEND FOR 2025

Mercialys’ Board of Directors will submit a proposal at the General Meeting on April 23, 2026 for a dividend of Euro 1.0 per share, identical to that paid out for 2024. The payout corresponds to 80% of 2025 NRE and offers a yield of 5.9% on the NTA of Euro 16.96 per share at end-2025 and 9.1% on the year’s closing price.

The proposed dividend for 2025 is based on the distribution requirement with the SIIC tax status concerning exempt profits from:

- property rental or sub-letting operations (including dividends paid by the subsidiaries subject to the SIIC system), i.e. Euro 0.73 per share;
- the distribution of exempt income recorded on the Company’s balance sheet for Euro 0.27 per share.

The ex-dividend date is May 4, 2026, with the dividend to be paid on May 6, 2026.

2. 2026 OBJECTIVES

In 2026, net recurrent earnings are expected to continue to be supported by a solid operational performance. They will also reflect changes in net financial items, linked to the refinancing of part of the debt, within a context of active and forward-looking maturity management. Mercialys has therefore set itself the following objectives:

  • Net recurrent earnings of at least Euro 1.29 per share;
  • Dividend of at least Euro 1.0 per share.

3. FAVORABLE MEDIUM-TERM OUTLOOK

By 2028, Mercialys expects average annual rental growth of between +5% and +7%. This performance should offset the increase in financial expenses and support average annual NRE growth of +2% to +4%, with a dividend policy targeting an annual payout ratio of around 80% of net recurrent earnings per share.

2. 2025 highlights

Investment operations

In March 2025, Mercialys acquired the remaining 70% stake in the regulated investment management company (SGP) ImocomPartners. As of December 31, 2025, the SGP investment management company manages the OPPCI fund ImocomPark, which holds a portfolio of 33 retail parks in France, with a value of around Euro 670 million (including transfer taxes).
In June 2025, Mercialys acquired the Saint-Genis 2 shopping center for Euro 146 million, partly financed under a finance lease agreement maturing on October 15, 2031.
In July 2025, Mercialys acquired the 49% minority interest in Hyperthetis Participations, held by SPF2 HYPERTHE, for a net total of Euro 29.5 million.
Lastly, through its subsidiary Mercialys Campagne 13, created in 2025 and fully owned, Mercialys acquired 100% interests in two companies: SCI Boule and SARL Etablissements S. Gaymard, with the latter owning 90% of SCI Boule and primarily serving as a holding structure. The total amount of this operation was Euro 10.5 million.

Change in the rental base

In June 2025, an agreement was reached with the Casino group, allowing, after approval from the Competition Authorities, the hypermarket previously operated under the Géant Casino banner at the Brest site to be taken over by a Leclerc member (Brest Eurodis). In the second half of 2026, the retailer Grand Frais, which is particularly popular with consumers, will further enhance and strengthen this retail offering. These openings enable Mercialys to offer an unprecedented breadth of food retailers across its portfolio, with the presence of Leclerc, Intermarché, Auchan, Carrefour, Grand Frais, Monoprix, Lidl and Aldi. In addition, a sales commitment covering the areas occupied by Leclerc was included in the agreements signed with its member company. This commits both the seller, Hyperthetis, and the buyer to finalize the sale within a window running from July 1, 2026 to June 30, 2027.

Financing

In June 2025, Mercialys carried out a Euro 300 million bond issue with a 7-year maturity and 4.0% coupon. This additional liquidity will enable Mercialys to refinance the Euro 300 million bond issue due to mature in February 2026. In addition, Mercialys extended the maturity of 77% of its undrawn confirmed bank lines in 2025.

* MGR: minimum guaranteed rent

The stock of expired leases at end-2025 reflects the negotiations underway, refusals to renew leases with the payment of compensation for eviction, global negotiations for each retailer, tactical delays, etc.
At end-December 2025, the collection rate for rent and charges from 2025 was particularly high at 97.8% (97.7% at end-2024).

The current financial vacancy rate15 16 - which excludes strategic vacancies following decisions to facilitate the deployment of extension and redevelopment projects - was 2.0%17 at December 31, 2025.

The reversion rate for 2025, combined with the standard renewals and relettings, shows a positive level of +2.2%.

The occupancy cost ratio18 was 10.9% at end-December 2025, stable compared with 2024 (10.8%). It is driving reversion, while supporting the occupancy rate. Its sustainable level, even after the impact of indexation seen since 2022, reflects the excellent sales performance achieved by retailers, highlighting the attractive features of Mercialys’ portfolio.

The rents received by Mercialys come from a very diverse range of retailers since, with the exception of food retailers (Intermarché 5.7% of rents, Auchan 5.4% and Carrefour 2.4%), no other tenant represents more than 2% of total rental income.

The rental income structure at December 31, 2025 shows that the majority of leases, in terms of overall rental income, include a variable clause. However, the Company’s exposure to purely variable rents is still very limited, representing around 2% of the rental base.

The rental income structure at December 31, 2025 shows a predominant share of leases indexed against the French commercial rent index (ILC). In 2026, as a result of the lease anniversary dates, the indexation of Mercialys’ rents will be linked for 16% to the index published in the first quarter of 2025 (+1.0%), with 19% for the index published in the second quarter of 2025 (+0.1%), 47% for the index published in the third quarter of 2025 (-0.5%), and 12% for the index for the fourth quarter of 2025, which had not yet been published as of December 31, 2025, while the other indexes represent a residual balance of 7%.

4. Review of consolidated results

4.1. Invoiced rents, rental revenues and net rental income

Rental revenues mainly comprise rents invoiced by the Company plus a smaller element of lease rights and despecialization indemnities paid by tenants and spread over the firm period of the lease (usually 36 months).

The change in invoiced rents primarily reflects organic growth, which came to +2.8%20:
- the impact of indexation for +2.3%, representing Euro +3.7 million;
- the contribution by Casual Leasing for +0.4%, representing Euro +0.6 million;
- the stable level of variable rents;
- the actions carried out on the portfolio for +0.1%, representing Euro +0.2 million.

Invoiced rents were also impacted by items relating to changes in scope for Euro -3.5 million, corresponding to asset acquisitions and disposals completed in 2024 and 2025, including the acquisition of Saint-Genis 2 in 2025 and the disposal of hypermarkets in 2024, as well as other effects linked to ongoing restructuring programs.

Lease rights and despecialization indemnities21 billed over the period are not significant. After taking into account deferrals over the firm period of leases as required under IFRS, lease rights for 2025 totaled Euro 0.5 million, compared with Euro 0.4 million for 2024.

Rental revenues22 therefore came to Euro 180.6 million at December 31, 2025, up +0.6% from end-2024.

Net rental income is down -1.1% from 2024 to Euro 170.5 million. It corresponds to the difference between rental revenues and the costs that are directly allocated to the sites. These costs include property taxes and service charges that are not billed back to tenants, as well as net property operating expenses (primarily fees paid to the property manager that are not re-invoiced and various charges relating directly to site operations).

The costs taken into account to calculate net rental income represent Euro 10.1 million for 2025, compared with Euro 7.2 million in 2024. The ratio of non-recovered property operating expenses to invoiced rents was 5.6% for 2025, compared with 4.0% in 2024, linked in particular to the increase in the number of retailers going into compulsory liquidation, as well as various favorable non-recurring items that were recorded in 2024.

Management, administrative and other activities income primarily comprises fees charged for services provided by certain Mercialys teams – in connection with advisory services provided by the asset management team, or shopping center management services provided by the teams on site – as well as letting, asset management and advisory fees relating to partnerships formed.

Fees charged in 2025 totaled Euro 7.9 million, compared with Euro 3.2 million for 2024. They include the income received, comprising management fees, under the 100% interest held since March 2025 in the investment management company ImocomPartners.

No property development margin was recorded in 2025.

In 2025, no significant other current income was recorded. Other current expenses mainly comprise overheads. Overheads primarily include financial communications costs, remuneration paid to members of the Board of Directors, corporate communications costs, shopping center communications costs, marketing research costs, professional fees (statutory auditors, consulting, research) and real estate portfolio appraisal costs. For 2025, these expenses totaled Euro 5.8 million, compared with Euro 7.9 million in 2024.

Personnel expenses totaled Euro 23.7 million in 2025, higher than 2024 (Euro 20.5 million), with this change linked primarily to the payroll recorded for ImocomPartners, acquired in March 2025. A portion of the personnel expenses may be charged back as fees, in connection with advisory services provided by the asset management team or shopping center management services provided by Mercialys’ teams on site (see paragraph above concerning management, administrative and other activities income).

As a result, EBITDA23 came to Euro 148.9 million in 2025, compared with Euro 147.2 million in 2024. The EBITDA margin was 82.4% (vs. 82.0% at December 31, 2024).

4.3. Net financial items

The net financial items taken into account to calculate net recurrent earnings represent a Euro 33.2 million net expense at December 31, 2025, higher than December 31, 2024 (Euro 27.2 million). This increase primarily reflects the higher level of debt, linked to the acquisitions completed in 2025 (partly financed under a real estate finance lease), as well as the early bond refinancing operation carried out in June 2025, with the corresponding impact mitigated through the cash investments made during the year.

This amount does not include certain non-recurring items, such as hedging ineffectiveness, the banking default risk, and the effects resulting from bond redemption premiums and costs and unwinding and modifying hedging instruments, with some spread over the term of the underlying instruments. In connection with the debt restructuring carried out in September 2024, the redemption of a bond issue had generated premiums and additional amortization in 2024. These impacts are presented in the detailed breakdown of net financial items below:

Other operating items (including provisions) came to Euro +5.1 million at end-2025, compared with Euro 0 million at end-2024. They primarily comprise indemnities for termination linked to leases ended early, intended to compensate rental flows from outgoing leases. The areas concerned are already more than 90% let, with this compensation more than covering the temporary rental vacancy while work is carried out. These items also include the impact of net reversals of provisions.

For 2025, the tax expense recognized in net recurrent earnings totaled Euro 0.8 million, mainly comprising the CVAE corporate value-added tax, up slightly from end-2024. For reference, the tax regime for French listed real estate investment trusts (SIIC) exempts them from paying tax on their income from real estate activities, subject to the distribution of at least 95% of their income from rental revenues and 70% of capital gains or losses on the disposal of real estate assets.

The share of net income from associates and joint ventures (excluding capital gains or losses, amortization and impairment) came to Euro 2.9 million at December 31, 2025, compared with Euro 3.4 million at December 31, 2024. This change factors in the change of consolidation method for the investment management company ImocomPartners. This company, in which Mercialys held a 30% stake in 2024, was previously accounted for as an associate. It has been fully consolidated since March 2025 after Mercialys acquired the remaining 70%.

The companies consolidated under the equity method in Mercialys’ consolidated financial statements are SCI AMR (created in partnership with Amundi Immobilier in 2013 and in which Mercialys has a 25% stake), SNC Aix2 (in which Mercialys acquired a 50% stake in December 2013, with Altarea Cogedim owning the other 50%), Corin Asset Management SAS (in which Mercialys has a 40% stake), SAS Saint-Denis Genin (in which Mercialys has a 30% stake), and DEPUR Expériences (in which Mercialys has a 22.9% stake).

Non-controlling interests (excluding capital gains or losses, amortization and impairment) came to Euro 5.4 million at December 31, 2025, compared with Euro 9.7 million at December 31, 2024. They are linked primarily to the 49% stake held by BNP Paribas REIM France in the companies Hyperthetis Participations and Immosiris. Since Mercialys retains exclusive control, these entities are fully consolidated. The decrease in non-controlling interests reflects (i) the disposal, in July 2024, of the four hypermarkets held by Hyperthetis, and (ii) Mercialys’ acquisition in July 2025 of the remaining 49% stake in Hyperthetis, giving Mercialys a 100% interest from that date.

Based on these items, NRE 28 came to Euro 117.5 million in 2025, compared with Euro 113.1 million in 2024, an increase of +3.9%. Based on the average number of shares (basic) over the period, NRE reached Euro 1.26 per share at December 31, 2025, up +3.9%. This performance is at the upper end of the revised guidance range announced in the first half of 2025, with between Euro 1.24 and Euro 1.27 per share.

Other operating income and expenses not included in net recurrent earnings correspond notably to the amount of net capital gains or losses on property disposals and provisions for impairment of assets.

Other operating income and expenses totaled Euro -36.4 million at December 31, 2025, compared with Euro -7.2 million at December 31, 2024. This amount mainly includes:

  • provisions recorded for the impairment of investment properties for Euro -34.6 million, compared with Euro -2.1 million at December 31, 2024
  • income and expenses relating to disposals, acquisitions and adjustments for previous sales for Euro -1.7 million, compared with Euro -5.1 million at December 31, 2024

In addition, Mercialys recorded various impacts in 2025 relating to non-recurring hedging operations. Net financial items also include effects relating to the ineffectiveness of financial instruments, as well as the default risk with banking counterparties. Combined, these items represent a total of Euro -8.8 million. For comparison, the non-recurring financial impacts recorded in 2024 were linked mainly to the refinancing operation, including the redemption premium for the bond issue maturing in July 2027, as well as the non-recurring amortization resulting from this redemption, for a total of Euro -20.0 million.

Lastly, the share of net income from associates and joint ventures, including non-controlling interests (amortization, depreciation and capital gains or losses), came to Euro 0.5 million at end-2025, compared with Euro 5.7 million in 2024. The decrease observed primarily reflects the impacts relating to the disposals of the four Hyperthetis hypermarkets in 2024, as well as the recognition of provisions for impairment concerning the company AMR in 2025.

Net income attributable to owners of the parent, as defined by IFRS, came to Euro 34.0 million for 2025, compared with Euro 53.8 million for 2024.

4.5. Financial structure

4.5.1. Cash, cost of debt and debt structure

The cash position represented Euro 435.3 million at December 31, 2025, compared with Euro 283.7 million at December 31, 2024. The main cash flows that impacted the change in Mercialys’ cash position over the period were as follows:

- net cash flow from operating activities during the period: Euro +157.0 million
- cash receipts / payments related to disposals / acquisitions of assets completed in 2025: Euro -127.0 million
- dividend payments to parent company shareholders and non-controlling interests: Euro -108.5 million
- Issues and repayment of borrowings net of the change in outstanding commercial paper: Euro +296.5 million
- net interest paid: Euro -34.2 million
- acquisition of BNP’s 49% interest in Hyperthetis: Euro -29.6 million

At December 31, 2025, Mercialys’ drawn debt totaled Euro 1,592 million, with the following breakdown:

- A bond issue for a nominal amount of Euro 300 million, with a fixed coupon of 1.8%, maturing in February 2026;
- A private bond placement for a nominal amount of Euro 150 million, with a fixed coupon of 2.0%, maturing in November 2027;
- A bond issue for a nominal amount of Euro 500 million, with a fixed coupon of 2.5%, maturing in February 2029;
- A bond issue for a nominal amount of Euro 300 million, with a fixed coupon of 4.0%, maturing in September 2031;
- A bond issue for a nominal amount of Euro 300 million, with a fixed coupon of 4.0%, maturing in June 2032;
- Euro 42 million of outstanding commercial paper, with an average rate of around 2.5%.

The average cost of bond debt was 2.9% at December 31, 2025, compared with 2.7% at December 31, 2024. The change over the year reflects the increase in debt linked to the acquisitions completed in 2025 and the early bond refinancing carried out in June 2025 for the issue maturing in February 2026.

The average maturity of drawn debt, including commercial paper, was 3.5 years at end-December 2025, compared with 4.0 years at end-June 2025 and 3.8 years at December 31, 2024.

Mercialys’ drawn debt maturity schedule (in millions of euros) at December 31, 2025:

In a context of high interest rate volatility, Mercialys maintained a fixed-rate debt position of 89% at end-December 2025 (including commercial paper).

Net financial debt came to Euro 1,154.6 million at December 31, 2025, compared with Euro 1,002.9 million at December 31, 2024, in line with the acquisitions completed in 2025.

Mercialys also has Euro 390 million of undrawn financial resources, enabling it to benefit from a satisfactory level of liquidity:

- A Euro 180 million revolving bank credit facility, due in June 2028. The Euribor margin is 155bp (for a BBB rating); if undrawn, this facility is subject to payment of a non-use fee representing 40% of the margin;
- Five bilateral confirmed bank facilities for a total of Euro 210 million, maturing between June 2027 and December 2030. The Euribor margins are 155 basis points or lower (for a BBB rating) or fixed rate; if undrawn, these facilities are subject to payment of a non-use fee representing up to 40% of the margins;
- A commercial paper program set up during the second half of 2012, with Euro 42 million used (outstanding at December 31, 2025).

All of the undrawn bank resources include ESG criteria.

4.5.2. Bank covenants and credit rating

Mercialys’ financial position at December 31, 2025 continued to be very healthy and satisfied all the covenants included in the various credit agreements.

The LTV ratio excluding transfer taxes29 came to 40.2% at December 31, 2025 (compared with 38.2% at December 31, 2024 and 42.5% at June 30, 2025), with an LTV ratio including transfer taxes of 37.4% on the same date (versus 35.7% at December 31, 2024 and 39.6% at June 30, 2025).

These ratios do not include the lease financing for the Saint-Genis asset for Euro 64.6 million, with this financing not recognized as net financial debt. Taking into account this item, the LTV represents 39.5% (including transfer taxes) and 42.4% (excluding transfer taxes).

- zero pledged debt at December 31, 2025, below the covenant, which caps the pledged debt to fair value ratio excluding transfer taxes at 20%.

Mercialys is rated by Standard & Poor’s, which confirmed Mercialys’ BBB / stable outlook rating on October 17, 2025.

4.6. Equity and ownership structure

Consolidated equity totaled Euro 666.5 million at December 31, 2025, compared with Euro 762.0 million at December 31, 2024.

The main changes that affected consolidated equity during the year were as follows:
- Net income for 2025: Euro +36.9 million;
- Payment of the 2024 dividend of Euro 1.0 per share and dividends paid to non-controlling interests: Euro -108.5 million;
- Transactions on treasury shares: Euro +1.5 million;
- Change in fair value of financial assets and derivatives: Euro +3.3 million.

The number of outstanding shares at December 31, 2025 was 93,886,501, unchanged since December 31, 2024.

At December 31, 2025, Mercialys’ shareholding structure had the following breakdown: treasury stock (0.57%), other shareholders (99.43%).

No shareholders informed the AMF that they held more than 5% of its capital or voting rights at December 31, 2025. However, the Cohen & Steers group, whose parent company is Cohen & Steers Inc., held the following at September 9, 2025:

  • 6,572,333,094 shares (including a third-party management position), representing 7.00% of the capital; and
  • 3,641,552 voting rights, representing 3.88% of the voting rights, corresponding to the specific position of the Cohen & Steers group, whose parent company is Cohen & Steers Inc.

4.7. Dividend

Mercialys’ Board of Directors will submit a proposal at the General Meeting on April 23, 2026 for a dividend of Euro 1.0 per share, based on the same level as that paid out for 2024. The payout corresponds to 80% of 2025 NRE and offers a yield of 5.9% on the NTA of Euro 16.96 per share at end-2025 and 9.1% on the year’s closing price.

For the last three years, Mercialys will have paid out Euro 2.99 of dividends, representing 82% of its recurrent earnings and providing an average yield of 9.6% for its shareholders over this period.

This proposed dividend for 2025 is based on the distribution requirement with the SIIC tax status concerning exempt profits from:

- property rental or sub-letting operations (including dividends paid by the subsidiaries subject to the SIIC system), i.e. Euro 0.73 per share;
- the distribution of exempt income recorded on the Company’s balance sheet for Euro 0.27 per share.

The ex-dividend date is May 4, 2026, with the dividend to be paid on May 6, 2026.

4.8. Changes in scope and valuation of the asset portfolio

4.8.1. Disposals and investments

No disposals were carried out in 2025.

Mercialys has resumed an active investment policy in 2025, with three operations representing a combined total of Euro 190 million and an average yield of around 9%. These transactions meet the Company’s strict criteria: an immediate yield of over 7%, real estate fundamentals aligned with Mercialys’ format, sustainability and geographic positioning, and value creation potential over the medium term.

In March 2025, Mercialys acquired the remaining 70% stake in the investment management company ImocomPartners. In addition to the fees generated by the fund already under management (Euro 650 million, dedicated to retail parks), this investment management company aims to develop new vehicles that would be focused in priority on retail real estate. Mercialys could subscribe to such funds in order to benefit from additional investment opportunities, in compliance with the regulations preventing conflicts of interest.

In June 2025, Mercialys acquired the Saint-Genis 2 shopping center for Euro 146 million under an agreement that included taking on a real estate finance lease, with this leading site in western Lyon benefiting from a catchment area of 700,000 inhabitants. This site meets Mercialys’ requirements thanks to its size (90 stores and 10 restaurants spread over more than 18,000 sq.m), its excellent rental diversification, built around high-profile retailers, and its potential for optimizing the retail mix and the corresponding real estate formats.

Lastly, in July 2025, Mercialys acquired, for Euro 28 million (net), the 49% stake that it did not previously hold in the company Hyperthetis, which owned 66,000 sq.m of rental space across five sites. This operation gives Mercialys full real estate control over these sites, which will be able to be restructured in line with the model applied for the operations carried out in Brest and Niort as described previously.

4.8.2. Appraisal valuations and changes in scope

Mercialys’ property portfolio is appraised twice yearly by independent experts.

At December 31, 2025, BNP Paribas Real Estate Valuation, Catella Valuation, Jones Lang LaSalle, CBRE and BPCE Expertises Immobilières updated their valuation of Mercialys’ portfolio:

- BNP Paribas Real Estate Valuation conducted the appraisal of 18 sites at December 31, 2025, based on an on-site inspection of four sites during the second half of 2025 and an update of the June 30, 2025 appraisals for the other sites;
- Catella Valuation conducted the appraisal of 12 sites at December 31, 2025, based on an update of the appraisals carried out at June 30, 2025;
- Jones Lang LaSalle valued five sites at December 31, 2025, based on updating their appraisals from June 30, 2025;
- CBRE conducted the appraisal of one site at December 31, 2025, based on an update of the appraisal carried out during the first half of 2025;
- BPCE Expertises Immobilières conducted the appraisal of 16 sites at December 31, 2025, based on an update of the appraisals carried out at June 30, 2025.

On this basis, the portfolio value was Euro 3,041.1 million including transfer taxes at December 31, 2025, up +2.1% like-for-like from end-2024. The appraisal value excluding transfer taxes is up +1.7% like-for-like, with the positive impact of rental income (+2.0%) offsetting the impact of a slight increase in rates.

The average appraisal yield rate was 6.65% at December 31, 2025, compared with 6.79% at June 30, 2025 and 6.65% at end-2024. This change shows a positive yield spread of over 300bp compared with the risk-free rate (10-year OAT) at end-December.

5. Outlook

In 2026, net recurrent earnings are expected to continue to be supported by a solid operational performance. They will also reflect changes in net financial items, linked to the refinancing of part of the debt, within a context of active and forward-looking maturity management. Mercialys has therefore set itself the following objectives:

  • NRE of at least Euro 1.29 per share
  • Dividend of at least Euro 1.0 per share.

6. Subsequent events

Following the financial year-end, the Group will redeem at maturity, on February 27, 2026, the Euro 300 million bond issue with a 1.8% fixed coupon.

7. EPRA performance measurements

Mercialys applies the EPRA33 recommendations for the indicators provided below. EPRA is the representative organization for listed real estate companies in Europe and issues recommendations on performance indicators to improve the comparability of financial statements published by the various companies.

In its half-year financial report and its Universal Registration Document, Mercialys publishes all the EPRA indicators defined by the Best Practices Recommendations, which can be found on EPRA’s website. The following table summarizes the EPRA indicators at end-December 2025, end-June 2025 and end-December 2024:
