CPI PROPERTY GROUP publishes financial results for the first quarter of 2025

CPI Property Group S.A. (“CPIPG” or the “Group”), a leading European landlord, hereby publishes unaudited financial results for the three-month period ending 31 March 2025.

Highlights for the first quarter of 2025 include:

  • Total assets were €20.4 billion, and EPRA NRV was €6.4 billion.
  • CPIPG’s property portfolio was €17.8 billion (versus €18.2 billion at year-end 2024), reflecting disposals partially offset by CapEx investments.
  • In Q1 2025, the Group completed €231 million in gross disposals. In addition, €267 million in disposals for which advance cash payments were received in Q4 2024 were formally closed and deconsolidated during Q1, temporarily negatively impacting the Group’s leverage.
  • Net Loan-to-Value (LTV) was 50.9%, mainly due to the timing mismatch between cash received from sales and the deconsolidation of properties during Q1 2025. Net LTV was 49.9% pro forma for disposals closed post Q1 and disposals signed but not yet closed.
  • Like-for-like rents grew by 1% across the Group’s portfolio.
  • Net rental income was €196 million.
  • Consolidated adjusted EBITDA was €182 million; FFO1 was €93 million.
  • Administrative expenses declined by more than 10% and remain a priority topic for the Group.
  • Occupancy stood at 92% with a stable WAULT of 3.5 years.
  • Net debt/EBITDA stood at 12.5x on an annualised basis.
  • Unencumbered assets slightly declined by 1 p.p. to 48% and Net ICR stood at 2.2x.
  • Total available liquidity remained high at €1.5 billion, covering all bond maturities for the next 24 months and all debt maturities for the next 18 months, with bank loans continuing to be rolled over.

Disposal update

In January 2025, CPIPG formally closed €267 million of disposals in Croatia and Italy for which cash advances were received in Q4 2024, with proceeds primarily used to repay the Group’s revolving credit facility.

In addition, year-to-date the Group has closed or signed disposals with a gross value of more than €650 million.

€231 million of disposals were closed in Q1, and €190 million so far in Q2, mostly at the level of CPI Europe; a higher than usual proportion of these assets were encumbered by bank loans.

Another €230 million in disposals have been signed but are not yet closed, and €370 million of disposals have received at least one letter of intent and/or are in the due diligence stage. As a result, the Group is optimistic about achieving our disposal target of €1 billion in 2025.

Notable disposals in 2025 include an office and retail complex with adjacent land in Bratislava, a non-yielding residential development project in London, and the Marriott Vienna for more than €100 million.

The Group continues to see healthy appetite from both local and international investors for European real estate assets, supported by active bank lending and relatively low interest rates.

Capital structure matters

Earlier today, the Group’s subsidiary CPI Europe announced a tender offer for up to €100 million of bonds maturing in October 2027. As proceeds from disposals are received, CPIPG intends to continue prioritising repayment of short-term and higher-coupon bonds.

Concurrently, the Group continues to evaluate available options regarding the SGD and EUR hybrid bonds with near-term call dates, taking into account our stakeholders including bondholders and rating agencies.

SBTi validation of environmental targets

As part of CPIPG’s ongoing commitment to sustainability, the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) has validated the Group’s enhanced near-term greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction target. The new target aligns with the more ambitious 1.5°C pathway for Scope 1 and 2 emissions. This follows CPIPG’s previous target which was validated under the well below 2°C scenario.

Gross rental income

The decrease of gross rental income by €15.7 million (6.6%) was driven by Group’s sales, compensated by reclassification of hotel properties from own operating to investment property of €2.2 million (and related reclassification from hotels income to gross rental income in profit and loss). Decrease of €8.4 million was caused by sales realized by S IMMO Group. 23 German properties were sold by S IMMO Group at the beginning of 2025, 17 asset deals and 6 properties were sold via share deals (decrease of €6.9 million). S IMMO Group also sold Zagrebtower and Savska in 2024 (decrease of €1.5 million).

Property operating expenses

Similarly, a decrease of property operating expense in Q1 2025 compared to Q1 2024 by 9.7 % was related to the Group’s sales.

Administrative expenses

A decrease of administrative expenses by €3.4 million in Q1 2025 compared to Q1 2024 reflects primarily decrease in wages and social costs (€2.8 million) and marketing costs (€1.0 million).

Other net financial result

Other financial loss was about €37.0 million (173 %) higher than in Q1 2024. This was caused mainly by net foreign exchange rate loss on property portfolio (about €15 million higher FX loss compared to Q1 2024) and by net loss from revaluation of financial derivatives €1.1 million (compared to net income €14.2 million in Q1 2024).

Amortization, depreciation and impairments

Amortization, depreciation and impairments decrease by €10.4 million compared to Q1 2024 primarily due to disposal of hotel and Swiss portfolio realized in 2024. These sales caused a decrease of depreciation of about €5 million, €2 million respectively.

GLOSSARY

Alternative Performance Measures (APM) Definition Rationale
Consolidated adjusted EBITDA Net business income as reported deducting administrative expenses as reported. This is an important economic indicator showing a business’s operating efficiency comparable to other companies, as it is unrelated to the Group’s depreciation and amortisation policy and capital structure or tax treatment. It is one of the fundamental indicators used by companies to set their key financial and strategic objectives.
Consolidated adjusted total assets Consolidated adjusted total assets is total assets as reported deducting intangible assets and goodwill as reported.  
EPRA Net Reinstatement Value (NRV) EPRA NRV assumes that entities never sell assets and aims to represent the value required to rebuild the entity. Makes adjustments to IFRS NAV to provide stakeholders with
the most relevant information on the fair value of the assets and
liabilities within a true real estate investment company with a
long-term investment strategy.
Funds from operations or FFO It is calculated as net profit for the period adjusted by non-cash revenues/expenses (like deferred tax, net valuation gain/loss, impairment, amortisation/depreciation, goodwill etc.) and non-recurring (both cash and non-cash) items. Calculation also excludes accounting adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Funds from operations provide an indication of core recurring earnings.
Net debt/EBITDA It is calculated as Net debt divided by Consolidated adjusted EBITDA. A measure of a company’s ability to pay its debt. This ratio measures the amount of income generated and available to pay down debt before covering interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation expenses.
Net ICR It is calculated as Consolidated adjusted EBITDA divided by a sum of interest income as reported and interest expense as reported. This measure is an important indicator of a firm’s ability to pay interest and other fixed charges from its operating performance, measured by EBITDA.
Net Loan-to-Value or Net LTV It is calculated as Net debt divided by fair value of Property Portfolio. Loan-to-value provides a general assessment of financing risk undertaken.
Secured consolidated leverage ratio Secured consolidated leverage ratio is a ratio of a sum of secured financial debts and secured bonds to Consolidated adjusted total assets. This measure is an important indicator of a firm’s financial flexibility and liquidity. Lower levels of secured debt typically also means lower levels of mortgage debt - properties that are free and clear of mortgages are sources of alternative liquidity via the issuance of property-specific mortgage debt, or even sales.
Secured debt to total debt It is calculated as a sum of secured bonds and secured financial debts as reported divided by a sum of bonds issued and financial debts as reported. This measure is an important indicator of a firm’s financial flexibility and liquidity. Lower levels of secured debt typically also means lower levels of mortgage debt - properties that are free and clear of mortgages are sources of alternative liquidity via the issuance of property-specific mortgage debt, or even sales.
Unencumbered assets to total assets It is calculated as total assets as reported less a sum of encumbered assets as reported divided by total assets as reported. This measure is an important indicator of a commercial real estate firm’s liquidity and flexibility. Properties that are free and clear of mortgages are sources of alternative liquidity via the issuance of property-specific mortgage debt, or even sales. The larger the ratio of unencumbered assets to total assets, the more flexibility a company generally has in repaying its unsecured debt at maturity, and the more likely that a higher recovery can be realized in the event of default.
Unencumbered assets to unsecured debt It is calculated as unencumbered assets as reported divided by a sum of unsecured bonds and unsecured financial debts as reported. This measure is an additional indicator of a commercial real estate firm’s liquidity and financial flexibility.
