Wereldhave announced its half-year 2026 results, reporting positive valuations in the Netherlands and Belgium mainly supported by higher passing rents. Like-for-like gross rental income growth reached 4.3% in the core portfolio. The company is well protected against higher interest rates through low capital expenditure, completed refinancing, and a 64% daily-life exposure. Major steps forward were made in the transformations of Knauf Shopping Schmiede and Cityplaza with mixed-use additions. A €60 million new 10-year US Private Placement was agreed, further strengthening the debt maturity profile. Fitch reaffirmed Wereldhave’s BBB credit rating with a stable outlook. The May AGM approved all resolutions, strengthening access to new equity. The forecast for the full-year 2026 direct result per share was confirmed at €1.85 to €1.95. An earnings-accretive capital rotation in the Benelux is in the letter-of-intent stage.
