Banque Européenne du Crédit Mutuel acted as agent and co-arranger, LCL acted as co-arranger. Rental management and rentals Despite the context, in 2021 the rental business was dynamic with 18 new leases or renewals of leases signed, covering a total of 10,300 Sqm and representing annual rents of €1.7 million. Among the leases signed, there were retail brands that create footfall and help to strengthen the brand mix, especially in the Valentin shopping centre in Besançon, the Aria Parc retail park in Allonnes, and at Sud Canal in Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines. Thanks to these signatures, as of 31 December 2021, the physical occupancy rate of the portfolio was 90% and the fnancial occupancy rate was 88%, an increase of 3 and 4 points respectively compared to 31 December 2020. Annualised net rents as of 1 January 2022 amounted to €9.3 million, up 5.6% on a like-for-like basis compared to 1 January 2021. Investments During the year, investments in the buildings in the portfolio, which mainly concern the Valentin shopping centre site, amounted to €2.8 million. M.R.M. points out that its retail portfolio is covered by an investment plan of €35.5 million across seven of its nine existing asset lines. This plan, initiated in 2016, which aims to exploit the potential valuation of the retail assets, has now been fnalised. The launch of the different programmes has been staggered since 2016; the last and biggest of the programmes, namely the partial restructuring and extension of the Valentin shopping centre, was delivered in the frst half of 2021. The surface area of the mall next to the Carrefour hypermarket, the leader in the agglomeration of Besançon, thus grew from 4,100 to 6,700 Sqm, and the number of stores from 32 to 50.

As of 31 December 2021 the mall had been 90% let, with a brand mix that had been enriched and adapted to the local young and family-oriented clientele. Cessions On 7 October 2021, M.R.M. announced the sale of two properties representing 10,200 sqm altogether for a total €4.9 million (excluding transfer taxes), 13% above the properties’ valuations as at end-June 2021. These disposals concern two non-strategic assets in the Gamm Vert sub-portfolio acquired in 2007. They are: • a 8,600 sqm warehouse in Mer (Loir-et-Cher), currently let to Gamm Vert. The warehouse has been sold to a foreign investor specialising in industrial and logistics developments. • a 1,600 sqm stand-alone property in Salbris (Loir-et-Cher) that was vacated by Gamm Vert in 2020. This property has been sold to a local independent investor. These disposals fall within the framework of M.R.M.’s dynamic management of its property portfolio, having previously announced that it is looking into potential acquisitions as well as possible disposals in a selective manner.
