“As restrictive measures on our markets eased, we have greater clarity on the consequences of the pandemic on our business. We completed renegotiations with majority of our retail tenants affected by the COVID-19-crisis and granted tenant concessions which impacted our gross margin by EUR 8 million in the first half. However, the collection of the retail rent was solid and stood at 91% in that period. We see momentum continuing towards pre-covid-19 levels with footfall gradually returning and malls’ turnovers picking up. On the office side as an operator of well-connected CBD locations, we expect the losses caused by the COVID-19-pandemic to be minor and short-term. We continue our development portfolio encouraged by the strong interest in the office space in the CEE region.” commented Yovav Carmi, GTC’s Management Board Member.
