1) Wholeco leverage: leverage used in connection with the amendment and extension of the syndicated loan announced on 17 February 2025. Wholeco leverage is calculated using the following formula: Net debt pre-IFRS 16 and IAS 17 after
deduction of Ages & Vie receivables i.e €2,987m /consolidated EBITDA restated for the impact of IFRS 16 and IAS 17 and adjusted for certain non-cash items and the full-year effect of ongoing action plans, i.e. €582m.
(2) Operating free cash flow is calculated as follows: EBITDA +/– change in working capital +/- non-current items – maintenance investments – interest and taxes paid.
(3) The Net Promoter Score (NPS) is calculated on the basis of satisfaction surveys and corresponds to the percentage of promoters (scores of 9 and 10/10) minus the percentage of detractors (scores of 0 to 6/10).
(4) Opco EBITDA is defined as follows: EBITDA (1) after capitalised leases in accordance with IFRS 16 (including leases already capitalised prior to the application of IFRS 16, under IAS 17) and (2) restated for the impact of the Group's real-estate
holdings. These impacts mainly consist of market rents associated with real-estate assets held, as defined in the Cushman & Wakefield report on the valuation of the Group's real-estate portfolio, as well as operating costs associated with
real-estate holdings (calculated on the basis of the Group's property operating costs).
