CPI PROPERTY GROUP publishes financial results for 2024

CPI Property Group S.A. (“CPIPG” or the “Group”), a leading European landlord, hereby publishes audited financial results for the financial year ended 31 December 2024.

“During 2024, CPIPG made significant progress on reducing leverage and maintained high levels of liquidity while taking actions to integrate our recent acquisitions,” said David Greenbaum, CEO. “In 2025, we will focus on operational performance and debt repayment while continuing to streamline our corporate structure.”

Highlights of the 2024 financial year include:

• Total assets were €20.6 billion, and EPRA NRV was €6.4 billion.
• CPIPG’s property portfolio was €18.2 billion, reflecting disposals and a modest decline in valuations (-1.8%), partially offset by CapEx investments.
• In 2024, the Group received about €1.6 billion of gross disposal proceeds and advance payments. About €200 million of gross disposals were closed in Q1 2025, with another €200 million signed but not yet closed. Over €450 million of disposals are under LOI and/or in advanced stages. The Group targets disposals of more than €1 billion in 2025 and €500 million in both 2026 and 2027.
• Net rental income was effectively unchanged at €795 million despite disposals, driven by like-for-like rental growth of 3.0%. Net business income was €842 million.
• Consolidated adjusted EBITDA was €747 million; FFO1 was €357 million.
• Occupancy improved from H1 2024, ending the year at 92.1% with a stable WAULT of 3.4 years.
• The EPRA topped-up net initial yield increased by 0.2% to 5.6%.
• Net LTV declined to 49.6%, down 2.7 p.p. compared to year-end 2023. Net debt was reduced by nearly €1.2 billion during 2024.
• Net debt/EBITDA declined by 1.0x to 12.1x on an annualised basis versus year-end.
• Unencumbered assets stood at 49%, and Net ICR was 2.4x.
• Total liquidity was €1.5 billion at the end of 2024, fully covering debt maturities over the next two years.
• CPIPG entered into a new €400 million revolving credit facility which matures in 2028.
• The Group issued €1.35 billion of bonds and completed more than €700 million of new secured loans, with proceeds used to repay both loans and bonds.
• The share of certified green assets (by value) increased by 7.1% to 47.7% and our progress recognised with an A score for climate change by CDP for their 2024 ranking.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

CONSOLIDATED INCOME STATEMENT

Gross rental income

Gross rental income decreased by €8.6 million (0.9%) to €925.5 million in 2024. The change was driven by Group´s disposals, partially offset by reclassification of hotel properties from owned/operating to investment property (and related reclassification from hotels income to gross rental income in income statement of €9.3 million).

Net valuation loss

Net valuation loss of €348.8 million in 2024 was represented primarily by GSG (€191.1 million), office and other assets at S IMMO (€78.8 million) and residential assets in the Czech Republic (€65.6 million).
 

Net hotel income

Net hotel income decreased by €32.2 million due to the deconsolidation of some hotels at the end of Q1 2024.
 

Interest expense

Net interest expense increased by €14.1. million (3.9%) in 2024 compared to 2023, mainly due to an overall increase in bond financing costs.
 

CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION

Total assets

Total assets decreased by €1,366.6 million (6.2%) to €20,563.7 million at 31 December 2024. The decrease relates primarily to disposals of investment property and property, plant and equipment.

Total liabilities

Total liabilities decreased by €929.2 million (6.8%) to €12,743.9 million at 31 December 2024, primarily due to a decrease in financial debts (€ 1,586.5 million).

Equity and EPRA NRV

Total equity decreased by €437.4 million to €7,819.9 million at 31 December 2024. The movements of equity components were as follows:                   

• Loss for the period of €197.5 million;
• Decrease of translation reserve by €75.3 million and hedging reserve by €44.6 million, partially offset by an increase of revaluation reserve by €12.8 million;
• Decrease due to share buy-back of €145.3 million;
• Increase in non-controlling interest of €241.0 million related to the equity investment in Poland, partially offset by a decrease of non-controlling interest of €115.7 million primarily attributable to the squeeze-out of S IMMO;
• Decrease due to payments to perpetual note holders by €78.3 million;
• Decrease due to payments to minority shareholders of €23.9 million and due to a disposal of subsidiaries of €10.6 million.

EPRA NRV was €6,394 million as at 31 December 2024, representing a decrease of 9.1% compared to 31 December 2023. The decrease of EPRA NRV was driven by the above changes in the Group’s equity attributable to the owners.

^[1] Due to the sale of a 50% stake in CPI Hotels, the hotel operating entity, income due from most hotel properties have been reclassified as rental income, as opposed to hotel income previously. Thus, the current hotel income figures are not comparable on a like-for-like basis to last year’s figures.
