Hotel performances were exceptional in 2023. 2023 average RevPAR was up 16% in Europe, mainly due to higher average room rates (up 23% vs 2019). Covivio Hotels’ main European markets significantly exceeded their 2019 levels, with RevPAR growth ranging from 6% in Germany to 32% in Italy. The French market, the world’s leading tourist destination, recorded a 22% increase in RevPAR.

Tourist numbers in the European Union have bounced back close to pre-pandemic levels. The 2024 outlook is very encouraging in Europe, particularly in France, with events including the Olympic Games in France and the European Football Championship in Germany. 

Numerous asset management transactions 

In Madrid, a 9-year extension lease was signed for the 146-room, 4-star NH Colon Madrid hotel in the city centre. This agreement will result in a rent increase of approximately 15%. 

In Amsterdam, a hotel also leased to NH Hotel Group underwent a €10 million works programme in 2023, involving the renovation of rooms and bathrooms, and the refurbishment of technical facilities. Funded by NH Hotel Group, these works are set to boost hotel performance and variable rents under the lease.

In Spain, Covivio Hotels signed new 15-year leases with Melia for three hotels in Barcelona, Valencia and Malaga. Covivio Hotels will fund a €14.8 million works programme to reposition these hotels and improve their energy performance. This asset management transaction will generate an increase of around 30% in fixed rents and a marginal return on investment of around 9%.

The statutory auditors’ report on the annual financial information is in the course of preparation.

Covivio Hotels also provides asset management expertise for its portfolio of operating properties. Covivio Hotels has launched repositioning programme for the Novotel Bruges hotel. This €12 million works programme (including technical alterations) will help upscale the hotel and considerably increase the average room rate. The target yield on cost is close to 15%. The programme includes the complete renovation of the 126 bedroom suites and the communal areas, along with the creation of new 12 rooms and a fitness area. The building’s carbon footprint will also be significantly improved, mainly through selection of sustainable technical equipment. Once this renovation is completed, the hotel will become a flagship of the Novotel brand in Europe. 

Similarly, the former Crowne Plaza hotel at the Lille Europe railway station is undergoing the complete renovation of its 124 rooms and technical elements for a total investment of €7 million. A new franchise agreement has been signed with Hilton, with performance expected to be 60% higher than in 2019.

 

Covivio Hotels and AccorInvest have entered into exclusive negotiations with a view to consolidating their hotel properties and business assets

Covivio owns 54 hotel properties that are let to AccorInvest under long-term variable-rent leases based on revenues. AccorInvest owns the business assets for these hotels and has signed long-term management contracts with the Accor Group. 

The consolidation operation would take the form of an exchange of business assets, currently held by AccorInvest, for hotel properties owned by Covivio Hotels. Following this transaction, Covivio Hotels would own 24 hotel operating properties and AccorInvest would own 10. The agreed value of the properties transferred to AccorInvest is approximately €210 million[1] (5% yield) and the agreed value of the business assets acquired by Covivio Hotels is approximately €260 million2 (12% yield). Based on 2023 earnings, the assets transferred to AccorInvest represent annual rental income of €10.6 million, while the business assets acquired by Covivio Hotels generate EBITDA of €31.0 million. 

A further step taken for joint-venture hotel real estate

Covivio Hotels is also joint shareholder and asset manager for a further 60 hotels let to AccorInvest and held via two joint ventures, established in 2010 and 2014 respectively: one is 80% held by Crédit Agricole Assurances and 20% by Covivio Hotels, while the other is shared between Caisse des Dépôts, Société Générale Assurances and Covivio Hotels. An exclusive agreement has also been signed with a view to consolidating the property and business assets of 25 of these hotels: 19 business assets acquired by joint ventures and 6 hotel properties sold to AccorInvest. These consolidation transactions for Covivio Hotels and the joint ventures represent a total of €390 million2 in hotel properties transferred, identical to the value of the business assets acquired, thus making the transaction cash neutral. Upon completion, Covivio Hotels and its partners will have consolidated ownership of 43 hotels and AccorInvest 16.

Through this transaction, Covivio Hotels intends to increase its capacity to directly influence portfolio performance by repositioning some hotels it has held for almost 20 years in order to leverage their considerable growth potential. The deal would enable Covivio Hotels and its partners to acquire business assets in major tourist areas with considerable potential for value creation through repositioning and management optimisation. Some of these hotels would remain under the Accor brand (under management or franchise agreements), while others may be rebranded. 

This accretive strategic move would mark a new step in Covivio Hotels’ development in the hotel sector towards a more diversified model (leased assets, operating properties). 

The transaction has been submitted to the Covivio Hotels and AccorInvest Social and Economic Committees for the information and consultation process and is also subject to certain conditions precedent and the completion of the customary due diligence procedures. It is set to be completed during the second half of 2024.  

€151 million in new disposal commitments signed 

Covivio Hotels signed new disposal commitments amounting to €151 million Group share (€183 million at 100%) during 2023, including 10 economy and mid-scale hotels in France, 2 hotels in Spain and 37 Courtepaille restaurants. These commitments were signed at values in line with end-2022 appraisal values.  

 

Solid resilience of asset values in 2023: down 3.9%

At the end of December 2023, Covivio Hotels held a unique portfolio in Europe, valued at €5,822 million

(€6,428 million at 100%). Against a backdrop of a widespread drop in property prices, the value of Covivio Hotels’ portfolio has shown resilience, with a like-for-like decline of 3.9% year on year, thanks to the solid operating performance of hotels and the fundamentals of the portfolio and the asset class: 

-       high-quality locations: Booking.com location average grade of 8.9/10;  

-       diversified portfolio: in terms of countries (12 countries) and segments (68% economy/midscale and 32% upscale);

-       long-term leases with the major hotel operators, based on reasonable effort ratios (approx. 60% on average): 16 operators with an average firm residual lease term of 12.2 years; - environmental certification rate of 91.2% at the end of 2023.

2 Yield : exluding retail for German hotels

Appraisal values fell 3.2% in the second half, following a 0.8% dip in the first half. The year-on-year increase of around 50 basis points in capitalisation rates had a negative impact on asset values, particularly on leasehold assets in Eastern Europe (down 8.5%) and the United Kingdom (down 4.4%). However, the fall in value was limited thanks to favourable revenue linked to the strong performance of hotels and rent indexation. The average yield on these assets was 5.8%, up 70 basis points on the previous year.

      (*) On a like for like basis

 Thanks to the buoyant hotel market in 2023, hotel revenues increased by 12.7% on a like-for-like basis over the year to €323.6 million (Group share).

image 

-       Variable-rent hotel real estate (20% of the portfolio): the portfolio is let mainly to AccorInvest in France and Belgium and consists of economy (Ibis) and midscale (Novotel, Mercure) hotels. The performance of the French hotel market during the year enabled rents for this portfolio, which are fully indexed to revenues, to increase by 18.9%

-       Fixed-rent hotels (57% of the portfolio): 8.8% increase in rents on a like-for-like basis, mainly due to rental indexation (up 6% in France, 4% in Germany and 3% in Spain) and the completion of the Anantara Plaza hotel in Nice at the end of 2022.   

The hotel firm residual lease term amounted to 12.2 years at end-December 2023, while the occupancy rate remained at 100% across the portfolio. 

Hotel operating properties (23% of the hotel portfolio)

-       The Group’s own hotel operating properties (23% of assets) also performed well. Located mainly in Germany (particularly Berlin) and France, these hotels posted an 18.6% increase in EBITDA year on year, thanks to higher average prices. 

Solid financial structure 

Covivio Hotels’ net debt fell by €27 million year on year to €2,260 million (Group share), and its leverage ratio (LTV) was a low 34.4%, vs 35% at end-2022. The average maturity of Covivio Hotels’ debt is 3.6 years, vs 4.3 years at end-2022. The average interest rate on debt is 2.4%, up 54 basis points as a result of the increase in interest rates. At the end of 2023, Covivio Hotels’ debt was 90% hedged ; its interest rate hedging instruments had an average maturity of 5.6 years. The ICR was 5.38x.  

The net debt / EBITDA ratio stood at 8.5x at the end of 2023 compared to 9.2x at the end of 2022.

Covivio Hotels had cash (including undrawn credit lines) of €378 million as of 31 December 2023.

 

Financial results affected by a decline in appraisal values 

EPRA NTA stood at €3,550 million, compared with €3,722 million at end-2022. On a per-share basis, it was €24.0, down 4.6% vs 2022. 

Taking into account the fair value adjustment of interest rate hedges and fixed-rate debt, EPRA NDV

(net disposal value) was €3,512 million, compared with €3,763 million at the end of December 2022, down 6.7% or €23.7 per share. 

EPRA Earnings up 8%, driven by revenue growth 

EPRA Earnings for 2023 totalled €239 million (vs €221 million in 2022), up 8.1% year on year, as the increase in financial expense was more than offset by the increase in revenues driven by the performance of hotels. 

EPRA Earnings per share amounted to €1.61 in 2023, vs €1.49 in 2022 (up 8%). 

Net income 2023 in Group Share amount to -€11.6 million, impacted by declines in the value of assets and financial instruments, compared with €478.8 million at the end of 2022.

Dividend

At the 15 April General Meeting, Covivio Hotels will propose a cash dividend of €1.30 per share (€1.25 per share in 2022), putting the payout ratio at 81%.  

2024 outlook

The return of tourist numbers to 2019 levels and the major events expected in Europe in 2024 point to a promising year ahead. Covivio Hotels accordingly intends to continue supporting its partners, the major European and international operators, and to take full advantage of the asset management work carried out on its portfolio.

Yields excluding retail surface for German hotels

At the end of December 2023, Covivio Hotels held a unique hotel portfolio of €5.771 million group share (€6.376 million at 100%) in Europe. This strategic portfolio is characterised by:

-       High-quality locations: average Booking.com location grade of 8.9/10 and 89% in major European city destinations.

-       Diversified portfolio: in terms of countries (12 countries, none representing more than 33% of the total portfolio), and segment (68% economic/midscale and 32% upscale).

-       Major hotel operators with long-term leases: 16 hotel operators with an average lease duration of 12.2 years.

The portfolio value decreased by -3.9% Like-for-Like, a mix of:

-       Lease properties (-4.0%): This decline, primarily attributed to the rise in cap rates, was counterbalanced by a positive income effect resulting from the improved hotel performance and rent indexation;

-       Operating portfolio (-3.7%): The value of German hotel fell by 4.5% in 2023, reflecting market performance and a rise in interest rates. Good performance for the French portfolio with a value increase of +2.4% thanks to one asset in the south of the France which was renovated and to the rebound of market performance.

-       Glossary:

1)    Definition of the acronyms and abbreviations used:

GS: Group share

Chg: Change

LfL: Like-for-Like scope

2)    Firm residual term of leases 

Average outstanding period remaining of a lease calculated from the date a tenant first takes up an exit option.

3)    Triple net lease  

Lease contract reached between a landlord and a tenant. A "triple net" lease means a lease for which all the taxes and expenses (work, maintenance) related to proper functioning of the building are at the expense of the tenant.

4)    Loan To Value (LTV) 

Calculation of the LTV is detailed in the Appendices. 

5)    Rental income 

Recorded rent corresponds to gross rental income accounted for over the year by taking into account the deferment of any relief granted to tenants, in accordance with IFRS standards.

The like-for-like rental income posted allows comparisons to be made between rental income from one year to the next, before taking changes to the portfolio (e.g. acquisitions, disposals, building works and development deliveries) into account. This indicator is based on assets in operation, i.e. properties leased or available for rent and actively marketed.

6)    EBITDA (Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortisation): 

This is gross operating income after rent. The calculation can be described in the following manner: 

(+) Total revenues (revenues)

(-) Purchases and External Expenses

(-) Personnel Expenses

= EBITDAR

(-) Rental income 

= EBITDA

7)    EBITDAR Margin:

EBITDAR corresponds to the gross operating income before rent. It is used to compare companies with different ownership policies.

The EBITDAR margin corresponds to the following calculation: EBITDAR / Total rental income The level of operating profits of hotels varies depending on the hotel category. 

8)    Portfolio 

The portfolio presented includes investment properties and properties under development, as well as operating properties and properties in inventory for each of the entities, stated at their fair value. 

9)    Yield  

The portfolio returns are calculated according to the following formula: 

Annualised gross rental income

image

Value excluding duties on the scope in question

10)  Average annual rate of debt   

Financial cost of bank debt for the period

                                                                    + Financial cost of hedges for the period

image

    Average used financial net debt outstanding in the year

11)  Occupancy rate

The occupancy rate corresponds to the spot financial occupancy rate at the end of the period and is calculated using the following formula: 

1 -  Loss of rental income through vacancies (calculated at MRV)          Rental income of occupied assets + loss of rental income

This indicator is calculated solely for properties on which asset management work has been done and therefore does not include assets available under pre-leasing agreements. Occupancy rate are calculated using annualized data solely on the strategic activities portfolio.   

12)  Like-for-like change in rent 

This indicator compares rents recognised from one financial year to another without accounting for changes in scope: acquisitions, disposals, developments including the vacating and delivery of properties. The change is calculated on the basis of rental income under IFRS for strategic activities. 

On hotel operating properties, the change in constant scope is calculated based on EBITDA.

Restatement done: 

▪  Deconsolidation of acquisitions and disposals realised on the N and N-1 periods ▪ Restatements of assets undergoing work, i.e.:

o    Restatement of assets released for work (realised on N and N-1 years) o       Restatement of deliveries of under-work assets (realised on N and N-1 years). 

13)  Like-for-like change in value 

This indicator is used to compare asset values from one financial year to another without accounting for changes in scope: acquisitions, disposals, works, developments including the vacating and delivery of properties.

Restatement done: 

▪  Deconsolidation of acquisitions and disposals realised during the period

▪  Restatement of work realised on assets during period N (including assets under developpement).
