Klépierre is ranked first worldwide by GRESB in the listed retail space and first in Europe in the global listed real-estate

Paris — October 23, 2024

Klépierre, the premier shopping malls specialist with exclusive focus on continental Europe today revises its 2024 guidance upwards, following a solid outperformance over the first nine months of 2024.⁽¹⁾

2024 net current cash flow now expected at €2.55 per share driven by:
- Continued leasing demand and further improvements in operating KPIs:

1,280 leases signed, up 7% year-on-year, with a 4.0% positive rental uplift
Financial occupancy rate at 96.5%, up 30 bps over three months and 70 bps year-on-year
9-month retailer sales⁽²⁾ up 4.0% like-for-like, supported by a 2.4% increase in footfall
Occupancy Cost Ratio at 12.6%, down 20 bps year-on-year

Solid rental growth: 9-month like-for-like⁽³⁾ net rental income up 6.3%

Sector-leading credit metrics:
- Net debt to EBITDA of 7.2x, cost of debt at 1.7%
- Net debt at €7,590 million, up €241 million versus December 2023, following the acquisitions closed year-to-date

REVENUE

In millions of euros, total share	9M 2024	Like-for-like change⁽³⁾
Gross rental income	902.0
Revenues	1,155.7

Net rental income	783.7	+6.3%

Klépierre’s total revenue⁽⁴⁾ for the first nine months of 2024 amounted to €1,155.7 million.

Accelerating rental growth supported by positive operating momentum

Over the first nine months of 2024, net rental income amounted to €783.7 million, up 5.7% year-on-year or 6.3% on a like-for-like⁽³⁾ basis, representing a spread of 350 basis points over indexation driven by higher collection and occupancy rates as well as a solid increase in additional revenues (turnover rents, car park revenues and mall income).
This solid performance was supported by consistently strong leasing demand with 1,280 leases signed (up 7% in volume terms year-on-year) and a 4.0% positive rental uplift on renewals and relettings, evidencing the crucial role of best-in-class malls for retailers. In addition, momentum was amplified by Klépierre’s operational excellence that is translating into the continuous enhancement of occupancy, up 30 basis points compared to June 30, 2024, and 70 basis points year-on-year at 96.5%. Simultaneously, the occupancy cost ratio stood at 12.6%, showcasing affordable level of rents amid a 4.0% like-for-like⁽²⁾ increase in retailer sales over the first nine months (peaking at 6.2% and 6.1% in August and September respectively) and 2.4% growth in footfall.

Sector-leading balance sheet providing options to create value

As of September 30, 2024, consolidated net debt stood at €7,590 million, up €241 million compared to December 31, 2023, mainly on the back of the €238 million invested in the acquisitions of O’Parinor (France) and RomaEst (Italy). The integration of these two super-regional malls has been an immediate success with a higher-than-anticipated performance over the summer. Meanwhile, Klépierre continued to invest in its assets and delivered the Maremagnum extension (Barcelona, Spain) in July – which is already posting solid footfall growth (+20% in August and +39% in September) - while the extension work at Odysseum (Montpellier, France) is advancing on time and on budget. Yield on costs of these projects stands at 13.5% and 9%, respectively.
Lastly, the Group continues to operate sector-leading credit metrics with net debt to EBITDA at the historically low level of 7.2x, an average debt maturity of 6.0 years and a cost of debt of 1.7%.

Worldwide leader in sustainable development

Klépierre has once again been recognized for the excellence of its corporate social responsibility performance by the Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark (GRESB) that ranked the Group first worldwide in the Listed Retail category. Besides this remarkable achievement, Klépierre is also number one in the European Listed Real-Estate category (all classes of assets). The Group obtained a total score of 95/100 (up 2 points compared to 2023) and maintained its 5-star rating, awarded to the top 20% best-performing companies across all categories.

Outlook revised upwards

The current business momentum combined with the performance in the first 9 months has led the Group to raise its 2024 guidance. Consequently, Klépierre now expects to generate a 6% increase in EBITDA and net current cash flow to reach €2.55 per share in 2024.
