FOREWORD FROM THE CEO Dear stakeholders, The past two years have been truly transformational for Wereldhave. In a real estate landscape that is changing fast, Wereldhave shifted gear and moved even more rapidly. Over the past two years, our total transaction volume in acquisitions and disposals amounted to well over € 2.5bn. The entire portfolios in the United States, the United Kingdom and Spain were sold. The acquisition of six French shopping centres for € 850m was completed in December 2014. During the full year 2014, our DIRK ANBEEK assets in operation grew by 86% from € 1.7bn to € 3.2bn. The Company is now in the strategic growth phase. We want to play a pro-active role in the consolidation that is currently taking shape. Our portfolio is much more focused now: mid-sized shopping centres in northwest continental Europe represent almost 90% of our assets. Good progress was also made on the refinancing of our debt portfolio. Wereldhave traditionally had a high percentage of loans at variable interest rates, usually about half of the loan portfolio. The interest rate is now fixed for a long time and the percentage of loans at fixed interest rate is currently at 81% with an average rate of 2.2%. This has significantly improved Wereldhave’s risk profile and we do have one of the lowest cost of debt of the sector. The largest transformation however has been the change in corporate culture. Early in 2013, we defined Entrepreneurship, Ambition, Teamwork and Transparency/Integrity as our key values. Changing the culture was necessary to create a solid foundation towards operational excellence. Staff and operations must be aligned towards the same target. Focus on a clear management agenda is one of the keys to success. Our ambition is to become the leading operator of mid-sized shopping centres in northwest continental Europe. 8 WERELDHAVE ANNUAL REPORT 2014 FOREWORD FROM THE CEO The change in culture went hand in hand with many and frequent adjustments to the organisation, also in the Management Team. We used key priorities to focus on operational excellence. Clear targets were set and management attention and reporting shifted towards these priorities. By mid-2014, it became clear that we were ready for Growth. Our like-for-like rental growth is far above indexation and occupancy levels went up, in spite of a harsh leasing environment. “We used key So we did not only reshape our portfolio, but also succeeded in building a strong operational platform. priorities to focus on operational The use of key priorities also paid off in the field of sustainability. In 2014, Wereldhave was rated GRESB Green star and more excellence” recently, SAM rated Wereldhave a Dow Jones Sustainability Index industry fast mover. We have a sound ambition to keep the pace in improving our sustainability performance. I would particularly like to thank all committed Wereldhave employees, also the ones we had to say goodbye to after exiting their country. Without their relentless effort and loyal support, we would never have been able to change the Company this rapidly. I also would like to express my gratitude towards our loyal shareholders.
