Vesteda Residential Fund is a mutual Fund, which is not classified as a legal entity under Dutch law. Vesteda Residential Fund does therefore not have any legal requirements related to reserves. However, the Fund has decided to present its statement of changes in equities as if the Fund was subject to the rules for the determination of revaluation reserves.

The property reserve is the difference between the market value and historical book value. The revaluation of property is accounted for in the event of positive revaluations. Negative revaluation is deducted from this reserve, as long as the reserve is positive on an individual basis. As the investment properties are held by the Fund itself, and the Fund is tax transparant, the property reserve does not take into account any (deferred) taxes.

The total number of issued participation rights had declined by 231,796 to stand at 34,931,963 at year-end 2025, following an equity redemption of €50 million on 31 March 2025.

Redemptions by investors may prevent Vesteda to make new investments, to deleverage, to the sale of assets and/or could lead to an increase in leverage. For the risk and internal controls reference is made to page 49 of this annual report.

Earnings per participation right

There have been no other transactions involving a change in the number of participation rights or the number of potential participation rights between the reporting date and the date these financial statements were completed.

Net asset value (NAV) per participation right
